Trustee
wants to
end sales
A Huron County Board of
Education trustee has
charged that Student
councils actively involved in
solie' Wig for fonds are
to '
)i
g dollars away from
b inesamen who pay taxes
/to support the .educatien
system,
Herb. 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."

Goodness 'Sake, Everyone

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.
Eldon O'Brien, R.R. 5,
Clinton was hired at $18 per
hour to blow snow at the.
recreation centre.
