Provincial authorities are
faced with two alternatives
as they battle erosion at
Pinery provincial park - ban
humans or kiss the unique
and fragile sand dunes
goodbye.
Jane Bowles, a graduate
student in 'plant sciences at
the University of Western
Ontario, said Wednesday a
large amount of planting is
going on to hold the sand in
place. But movement across
the dunes from campsites to
beach is killing vegetation
and allowing the wind to
open up and blow away the
first ridge of dunes.
The park is on the shore of
Lake Huron south of Grand
Bend.
Bowles told a seminar
there are a number of ridges,
the oldest being those far-
thest from the beach. The
oldest are also the least
susceptible to change. New
dunes, which are several
hundred years old, form the
barrier to the beach and are
taking the brunt of the
damage.
This could allow wind to
blow through and damage
the second row of dunes, she
said.
"People at the park are
doing something, but it is
very difficult when there is
public demand for a park.
"In some places, it is very
bad," she said, adding that
some of the damage was also
a natural inland migration of
the dunes, But Bowles said
her comparison of the
current state with aerial
photographs has convinced
her the opening of the park in
the 1950s had caused a great
deal of damage.
Part of her PhD work
In another Matter con-
cerning employees, Davis
said the liability insurance
which Ontario Hydro carrys
on behalf of all municipal
hydro employees and
commissioners in Ontario
now includes errors and
omission insurance.
Under the added coverage
the PUC is covered up to $1
million for a single claim and
a miximum of $5 million for
all claims during a one year
period.
The water works depart-
ment is not covered by the
above policy, Davis stated.
Boyle suggested to Davis
that he determine if the
water works department
could be added to the town's
existing errors and omission
coverage.
In other business the PUC:
Learned that PUC em-
ployee Harold Wurm who
has been off work since
February as a result of a
vehicle colliding with a
PUC truck has been ex-
periencing problems with
workman's compensation
board over the treatment of
his injury.
Received a request from
the town's engineers B.M.
Ross and Associates that
some water mains be
lowered as a result of some
upcoming storm sewer
projects.
Learned that the PUC's
cost for the extension of
Rosemount Avenue off of
Thames Road East will be
around $8,000.
Learned that the in-
stallation of new 'street
lighting in the area east of
Main Street bounded by
Sanders and Simcoe Streets
and had been completed.
Received another letter
from the Prout Brothers
lawyer concerning their
contention that the purchase
of Hicks property on the
Usborne township on the
which the PUC has one of
their welli, is the basis of
renegotiation of the price for:
the well rental.
included marking out plots of,
sand and vegetation on the
dunes over three years and
examining what happened.
There was a considerable
reduction in vegetation
cover, she said, although she
hasn't been able to deter-
mine the cause.
Over-all, however, the
damage "is pretty alarming
and it is happening pretty
fast," she said. The natural
changes seem to affect the
more stable inland dunes,
while human influences
affect the shoreline dunes.
There is no way of knowing
whether the human in-
terference will simply ex-
tend the amount of time to
develop the shoreline dunes,
or whether it will arrest the
entire process, she said.

Christians are
uncomfortable
Too many Christians are
more comfortable with
daffodils and bunnies at
Easter than the cross, says
an editorial in The United
Church Observer.
This story of the cross is
the very essence of the
gospel but it doesn't fit in
with the optimistic,' positive
view of the world church-
goers prefer.
"We can't very well ignore
it. So we do something even
more effective: we trivialize
it," says guest editorial
writer Douglas Hall,
professor of religious studies
at McGill University,
Montreal.
"Often our representations
of the cross...have about the
same degree of reality as a
Grade B Hollywood movie,"
he says.
Easter Sunday becomes a
way of telling one another
that suffering and death are
not real, that Igood always
triumphs over evil. "No
wonder all the lapsed
middle-class Protestants
show up for Easter services.
What better way of con-
firming their credo (so hard-
pressed in these dark days)
that success is the name of
the game," says Dr. Hall.
But that attitude brings at
least two problems, First, it
removes the Christian gospel
from the sphere of actual
human experience; "it
appeals to the human need to
win but it loses touch with
the losers." And secondly,
"when we make Jesus' death
and resurrection the stuff of
a success story, we limit its
credibility to those who
succeed."

Manager Hugh Davis told
the monthly meeting, of the
PUC Tuesday that the
electrical utilities
association has requested
member PUC to change the
method of grounding for
workers and for vehicles.
For workers engaged in
activities where a line is to
be shut down, a new clamp
along with a heavier gauge
of wire should be employed.
In the past, vehicles have
been grounded by driving a
steel rod with a wire at-
tached to the truck chassis
into the ground.
Vehicles must now be
grounded by a strand of wire
attached from the truck
chassis to the neutral hydro
line.
While Davis agreed this
was a better method of
grounding, he said hydro line
could be pulled down if an
employee neglected to
disconnect the ground line.
Davis said this item was
not budgeted for in 1980
budget with only $1,500 set
aside for miscellaneous
tools.
On a motion made by
Mayor Derry Boyle, the
commission agreed to spend
$6,341 for the new equip-
ment,
The commission accepted
the suggestion by Davis that
the local PUC adopt the
practice of the London PUC
concerning jury duty.
Davis saicta member of his
office staff had been called
for jury duty 'with no
provision made in the
agreement between the
employees and the PUC
concerning jury duty. In
London, the employee is paid
his full wages while on jury
duty, if the employee agrees
to a hand over the amount to
the PUC which they received
while serving on the jury.
Boyle said the recently
concluded agreement bet-
ween the town and its em-
ployees contained a similar
agreement with the town
paying the difference bet-
ween the wages and jury
stipend.
Safety equipment costs $6,000
A change in the oc- cost the Exeter Public
