Turkheim, trustee for the township of Hay and the villages of Zurich and Hensel', told the board Monday that student council fun-raising efforts are often taking business from the community. ' "South' Huron Secondary School students are soliciting orders for grapefruit and oranges and I just can't,,go along with it," he said. "They are taking money away from the businessman who pays taxes to support education." Turkheim said one of the students indicated the council could realize a $5,000 profit from the sale of grapefruit and oranges which, he said, was com- petition, "The business should go to the food stores and it is wrong to let students com- pete with them" he claimed. "They are taking a lot of business away from the local businessman and that can hurt the stores." Goderich and , Colborne Township trustee, Shirley Hazlitt, asked what the difference was in 'selling fruit, candy or chocolate bars. "It just isn't fair," Turkheim retorted. "They are paying for the students through taxes and then they get competition from the students. Director of Education, John' Cochrane, said the board policy dictates that students must give fair value for money received. And in that respect, he said, the sale of grapefruit and oranges is legal. Hazlitt told trustees that• curtailing student in- volvement in fund-raising ventures was not the answer. "We want them to have initiative but we keep eliminating things for them to do. What's left?" Turkheim ,said that distributors talk student councils into the proposition and take the money out of the community, He introduced a motion ,to review the policy„, of selling but it was defeated' by a narrow margin. Board vice-chairman, John Henderson, said that vending =Chines fall into the same category. "The use of vending machines should stop too because the money goes outside the schools to the company involved." Mary Morrice, from For Goodness 'Sake, Everyone welcome. Bible Study.

Oke TuckerSMith township council Meeting Tuesday night ended in a stormy ses- sion with accusations flying, However as tempers cooled .down the meeting was ad- journed and lunch was serv- ed at 11 p.M. in spite of complaints about the cast of the Ontario Municipal Board hearing When it was learned the 'township's lawyer, Michael B. Mitchell of Stratford, had presented a bill for $1,913.92, some members of council decided that the township's witnesses and clerk- treasurer Jack McLachlan, should be paid for their assistance, Councillor Frank Falconer, who first suggested the payments to the clerk treasurer and the former clerk treasurer, made a motion that the former clerk treasurer, Jim McIntosh, R. R. 3, Seaforth, be paid $50 - "a day's pay." This was seconded by Coun- cillor Robert Fotheringham, Deputy reeve Robert Bell voted for the motion but Councillor William Brown said he was not in favour. Deputy-reeve Bell made a motion that the former township reeve, Elgin Thompson of Kippen and Dick Lehnen of Vanastra, each be paid $50, for being witnesses. This was second- ed by Mr. Fotheringham. Mr. Brown and Mr. Falconer said they Were not in favour. To break the tie Reeve Ervin Sillery voted in favour, remarking, "They took the time and were there. Tfeel I should go along with this." Then Mr. Fotheringham made a motion that clerk- teasurer McLachlan be paid $250 for the additional work he had to do for the municipal board hearing. This was seconded by Mr. Flaconer. Both Mr. Bell and Mr. Brown voted in favour. The OMB hearing was held to decide who was to be responsible for a debenture debt against the Vanastra recreation centre of $130,000 which council approved in 1974. with the passing of a bylaw. Councillor William Brown stated one of the candidates campaigning in the election was saying that he (Brown) was responsible for the OMB hearing and it had cost over $3,0 0 0. Councillor Fotheringham, who is seek- ing the deputy reeve postion along with Mr. Brown, said he was the one making the statement. Mr. Brown said, yes, he had caused the hear- ing but that it was necessary to clear up a mistake made by the 1974 council. Reeve Sillery said, "You can't estimate the damage to the township that the hearing has caused," Count or Frank Falconer said toReeve Sillery that council in 1974 'was short- handed" and "the trouble yob got into, you deserved". Mr, Sillery asked what he meant and Mr. Falconer said, "Well, Fowlie had quit and you never replaced him. You were pushing things through sho r t - handed." (Councillor Vince Fowlie of Vanastra had resigned his seat over the .debenture debt being charg- ed to Vanastra residents only.) Mr, Falconer, who has served on council before the 1974 incident but was not on council that year, indicated he would have filled the vacancy if he had been ask- ed. Mr. Fotheringham said he wanted to clear up a point resulting from a news story that said he had never given an explanation as to why Mr. Brown had been taken off the Vanastra day care cen- tre board in 1979 when he (Fotheringham) was chair- man of the board. Mr. Fotheringham said to Mr. Brown and the press representative that the reason he was taken off was because he had been digging into other things In` the township and "I felt if he got digging into the day care centre all the day care board member might quit," Council finalized its plans Lz party on election night which it will hold at the Vanastra recreation centre. It was decided the rental for the hall of $150. and the fee for the disc jockey, Dale Parsons..R.R. 2, Kippen, for $140. should he paid out of the township's general funds and the profit from the OP to go to the recreation cen- tre. Council agreed to donate $100 to minor hockey the Clinton house league - to help in the purchase of sweaters, socks and such as the result of a request from one of the coaches, George Townsend of A.R. 4, Seaforth. Approval was given to recreation director, Diane thirnin, to request the government to provide a person (with salary paid 100 per cent and no cast to the township,) to study for one year the programs provided at the recreation centre and their value.
