INTERVIEW — During the Exeter Public School spring show
last week, the works of Alexander Graham Bell were outlined
in various forms. In the top photo, interviewer Steve Batten
talks with Dr. Bell (Matthew Connon) about his ac
complishments, while below, Doug Scott (playing Watson)

Local builder Jan Van
Haarlem appeared before
council this week to get an
answer on his request to
build a commercial building
on the reclaimed land across
from Les Pines Motel on
Main St., but was advised he
would probably have to wait
until the new official plan
and zoning bylaws are
completed before knowing
the disposition of the
situation.
The property is presently
zoned as residential, but will
probably be changed to
commercial under the new
plan. However, he was told
that council could not ap
prove a permit on that
conjecture, because there
may be objections to the plan
to rezone the property under
the new plan.
Mayor Bruce Shaw said
the developer could apply for
a zoning change under the
existing plan, but it would
probably be just as quick to
wait for the new plan.
Clerk Liz Bell predicted
that any rezoning ap
plications would probably be
held up until the new plan is
prepared anyway.
“I understand it could be a
year or a year and a half
before the new plan is
ready,” VanHaarlem noted,

saying that he may have to
build his proposed com
mercial outlet outside
Exeter if that is the case.
“The new plan should be
ready before a year,”
Councillor Derry Boyle
opined.
“It has to be ready before
a year,” Mayor Shaw ex
claimed, although he could
not make any promise that it
would be.
“Have faith and hope it
*will be done soon,” Shaw
said in reference to the new
plan, which is being
prepared by the Huron
planning board and the
ministry of housing.
“I’ll keep my fingers
crossed,” Van Haarlem said
as he left the meeting.

only from the families of our
own pupils but also from the
local community. Thank you
for your attendance.
Parents are reminded that
’applications for attendance
at the summer program at
the Midwestern Regional
Children’s Centre in
Palmerston should be sent as
soon as possible. We have
had as many as five pupils
accepted there in past
summers and all reports
indicate that the children
receive an excellent
residential experience.
Our thanks are extended to
the students from
Y.A.C. M.R. who put up the
display from our school at
the Exeter Arena on the
occasion of the 10th
Anniversary of the South
Huron and District
Association for the Mentally
Retarded. Our children had
worked hard to make the
large yellow flowers and it
was a pleasure to see how
attractively the High School
students arranged the
display for the banquet.
Debbie has been in London
at C.P.R.I. in Cottage 21 for
several weeks now. The
Department of Speech
Therapy is working on a
special program with Debbie
to teach her to use symbols
to communicate.
Arrangements have been
made once again for us to
have swimming lessons at
Vanastra. We will be having
six sessions in June so
notices will be going home
later next month.
