By Ab Wylds
Early last Monday morning,
when the ambulance was returning
to Kincardine Hospital from Lon-
don in that snow blizzard along
number 9 highway, they received a
message to turn off at the 15th
corner and proceed to Ripley. In
the ambulance were Rod MacDon-
ald, former Ripleyite, Dave Stotes-
bury, and nurse Mrs. Bev Lyons,
all of Kincardine.
They got in the fifteenth to about
the 12th concession when they
required help to make the two
blocks into Ripley. They were to
bring in young Jason Dodds, son of
Rick and Shirley Dodds of Kincard-
ine, who were storm stayed in
Ripley with his parents Johnny and
June Dodds. Jason reportedly was
suffering from an acute asthmatic
attack.
Once again Joe Hodgins of the
Huron Township road staff took the
township grader ,plow from the
Huron Township, garage and plow-
ed his way out the 15th and brought
the ambulance into Ripley.
Considering the zero visibility and
blizzard conditions and that the
ambulance motor needed attention,
it was put into Frank Zipfel's
garage for the day. All this took
place between five and six in the
morning.
In the meantime, Mrs. Mary
Armstrong of Ripley and a nurse at
Kincardine Hospital, was at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. Johnny
Dodds looking after , Jason, and
continued to do so through
Monday.
About five o'clock Monday after-
noon, the snow storm died 'down.
Joe Hodgin, s again took the Huron
Township grader plow, accompan-
ied by Bernie Twolen. The ambu-
lance, dried and repaired, was tak-
en from Frank's garage. Along
with its staff it carried Jason and
his mother Mrs. Shirley Dodds and
Leonard Irwin, reportedly needing
medical aid with bleeding ulcers.
Next behind the ambulance was
Rick Dodds accompanied by his
father Johnny. Then next was John
D. MacKay and Ivan Cook in
Johnny Dodd's panel truck. The
whole group of vehicles made their
way north on the 15th for two
blocks, then west on the 12th,
concession right across blocked
highway 21 right down to the
Lakeshore road and then into
Kincardine to .the hospital where
Jason and Leonard received medic-
al attention.
Then the plow, with Joe and
Bernie and Johnny Dodds, John D.
MacKay and Ivan Cook returned to
Ripley. But before leaving
Kincardine, they picked up medic-
ine for Ardill Mason who is back
home in Ripley. Bernie reports
that Joe put the plow through drifts
five feet deep on the lower 12th and
the /shore road. Joe certainly
deserves credit as does everyone
helping in this emergency.

the surroundings which will be
landscaped with a small park area
for use of the residents. Mr. Glenn
will sell the homes and. lease the
land and services.
The proposed Lucknow official
plan includes provision for only
single family housing or senior
citizen housing. There is no
provision presently for mobile
home parks, duplexes and apart-
ments. Mr. Hill suggested that
council might amend the proposed
plan to include the mobile home
park. The Bruce County official
plan draft indicates that all mobile
home parks must be on a minimum
of 10 acres which Mr.. Hill felt
. should vary, according to the
particular situation. Council
agreed to look at these two matters
which would need amending before
approval could be granted.
Reeve Joynt said he agreed that
10 acres was not a necessity in
establishing an efficient„ rnobile
home park.
All other aspects of the proposal
have been thoroughly investigated
by Mr. Hill and he indicated that he
felt the proposal conformed to all
existing planning regulations;

ian Cemetery on the 6th concession

persons who were buried there,
they would appoeciate hearing from
you. Just contact one of the
committee, namely Mrs. Donnie

boxes at Christmas time.
