A Walk Through Town One of the big topics of converse tion in the coffee shop. and on the street corners of town last week, was Vic Loughlean's approaching depar- ture for Walkerton, Suddenly, after VIc'e Midget softball team had taken erovincial honors in Monday's final game, the people of town started to realize that Wingham and Wingham sport in particular, was losing a pretty valuable man. Seldom, if ever before, has Wingham taken a provin- cial championship and when the town gets two in one year, both teams coached by the same man, and that man is leaving for one of our neigh- bouring and rival towns, it makes you think. Not that you can blame Vie. Every man has to look after himself, and•if a person gets a chance to do better for himself, in a business or financial way, who can argue with him for taking it? Or who would pass it up themselves? Anyhow the story is that Vic was made an attractive offer in Walker- ton, a chance at a brand new barber shop there, and possible sport con- nections which might come in handy in the future. In Wingham no one had made any offers, and some times there didn't seem to be much support of any kind forthcoming. Vie didn't mind coaching the softball and hockey teams, in fact he liked the job, but it was getting to be an expensive hobby, what with long distance calls, gas for the car, time lost from business and whatnot. So he told the folks in Wal- kerton the deal was on. That was a couple of months ago, and when the news was noised around Josephine Street, it didn't cause much of a ripple. Various people called in on Vic and expressed their regrets that he was leaving, and those in the sporting fraternity voiced their sor- row at the fact that Wingham might not win another provincial champion- ship. Nothing much else happened. Even when this paper carried an edit- orial on the subject of Mr. Loughlean and his contribution to the, town's sport, and regretted his departure from the local scene, nobody thought anything more of it than to express regret. After Monday's championship game, however, several people around town got to thinking about it. They thought about it to so such effect that on Tuesday a meeting was called, with. representatives from the town council and the service clubs, to see if some- thing could be done about it. The idea voiced at the meeting was that if something in the way of part-time re- muneration could be offered Vic, as a partial payment for his service and out-of-pocket expense, perhaps he could be persuaded to stay. The meet- ing even got around to figuring out where the money was to come from. Next day a representative from the meeting called on Vie With the pro- position. On behalf of those present at the meeting he offered Vic a stipend of $500 to coach the midget hockey team for the coming winter. By that time it was a bit too late to make any changes. Vic had already promised to go to Walkerton, and al- though he hadn't made any promises to coach there, he had committed him- self on the barber shop, and didn't feel that at this late date he could pull out of the deal. Tubby Schmaltz, own- er of the building in Walkerton, was also consulted on the matter. Vic decided that it was too late to change his plans to go to Walkerton. However, he did promise to come back to Wingham to coach the midgets, if the town would pay his gas. Which in everybody's estimation was a Most generous offer. Reviewing the whole subject, Vie said that if anyone in town had breached the subject a Couple of months ago, he could have easily ar- ranged to stay in Wingham, and would have den° so. But to cancel all his arrangements a Mere two weeks before he was scheduled to leave, was a bit difficult to engineer. The moral of which would seem to be: "Dont Wait until people are gone, before you start appreciating them." uron Farms to Be Reforested are being bYeeinfgal'aTineti$4 to°°tCr reforestation program program in Huron County.
