Retubing option at Bruce A still open Lucknow council seeking
'from page 1
new buyers for its product,
something that, is imperative if the
plant is ter continue operation.
And in terms of the retubing
project at Bruce 'A', Strong said it
is an option that has been kept open
and will remain open.
It is a "very plausible alternative"
for long term supply, according to
-
Strong, particularly since.the facility
already exists and a new one would
not have to be built.
Strong said a decision would have
to be made "in the next few years".
"In the meantime, we have tried
to mitigate the (adverse) effects on
this community."
Community leaders, including
Southampton Mayor Art Knechtel
and Saugeen Township Reeve Har-
ry, Thede, praised Strong for his
commitment to the community and
for his efforts to make Ontario
HJ„dro economically viable.
"If anyone can turn this utility
around, sir, you can," Knechtel
said.
Hydro chair defends `love' quiz
Ontario Hydro Chairman
Maurice Strong defended his
corporation's actions after what
has come to be known as the
'love quiz' was sent to some
5,000 customers.
The $1.3 million survey, which
includes questions relating . to
customers' private lives, has
many. people questioning the
integrity of a corporation that
would spend that much money
on a survey in light of its $34
million debt.
But Strong said the survey
would help the corporation
understand and listen to its customers.
"It seems like a lot of money
but it was a more in-depth sur-
vey than we normally do,"
Despite the cost, Strong said it
was the "necessary and respon-
sible thing to do".
He added "some of the ques-
tions may seem a bit peculiar"
but he defended Hydro's actions,
saying it was important to get to
know the customer.

advice before adding
another sewer connection
Advice from the Village of Luck-
now's engineer will be necessary
before council decides to put in
another connection to its sewer
trunk line.
Theresa Gollan told Lucknow
Council, at its July 13 meeting, she
wants to cut into the trunk line for
another connection. Council, depen-
ding on the advice of its engineer,
suggested another alternative could
be worked out.
Gollan also complained that a
broken Cable T.V. line had
damaged a tree on her property.
Council will contact the Cable Co.
to see what can be done.
Tender accepted
Council accepted the tender from
Lavis Construction to reconstruct
Willoughby Street at a price of
$5,1704.33 including PST and GST.
Only two tenders, the other from
Storm Sewers, were received for
the project.
Fire Marshal's Report
Lucknow Fire Chief, Peter Steer,
presented council with the Fire
Marshal's June 23, 1993 report on
property located at 809 Havelock
Street. According to the report,
there are nine counts of possible
potential violations.
Council has referred this matter
for legal advice.
.,area principal retires
instead of transferring.
An area principal has opted for
early retirement instead of a
transfer.
The Huron County Board of
Education accepted Shirley Weary's
resignation at the board's special
meeting held July 5. Weary is prin-
cipal of Bluewater Secondary
School.
According to a press release, she
was scheduled for a transfer to F.E.
Madill Secondary Schooi in Win-
gham, effective
September ember 1 1993.
"The
students, staff and com-
munity of that school deserve a
principal who is prepared to make a
commitment for a minimum three-
year period in order to effect ap-
propriate change within the school.
I am not prepared to make that
commitment."
Weary was the founding principal
at Bluewater Secondary School
which opened in September 1986.
In a telephone interview, Weary
said she had discussed retirement
with "the powers that be" last fall.
She had , proposed she remain at
Bluewdter Secondary School
(located just south of Goderich on
Hwy. 21) for the. 1993/'94 year and
then retire.
"But if it's a choice of going to
Wingham or going early, I'll go
early," she said. "Ten years ago I
would have leaped at this, but I
have no desire to drive to Wingham
through the winter. I feel I've done
my share of winter driving."
Board director -designate .Pa
ul
Carroll said WeazYssresignation has
put two other transfers on hold.
Weary will remain at Bluewater
until October 1. South Huron
District High School (Exeter) prin-
cipal Joe Wooden was to come to
. Bluewater and the current principal
of F.E, Madill, Herb Murphy, was
'to take over at South Huron.
'"Because of the Social Contract
and other matters, it didn't seem
appropriate to go on a recruiting
exercise until later in the fall," said
Carroll. "So, to minimize the dis-
ruption to the schools, the transfers
will be delayed until January 1994."
Team is financially secure
and looks good heading
into the 1993/94 season
•from page 1
have $6,000 in the clear to get
started again: If you take a leave of
absence you only have to have
$1,093.85 for the OHA fine bond
and $540 for the players' cards."
Duncan further said he, hoped
the leave would only be for season
and he will be working to clear the
1922-93 debt. '
When contacted Ist week,
Recreation Director Jane Dawson
said no further progress had been
made with the debt situation. As it
stands, the team will not be allotted
ice time for the upcoming season.
lronmen Look Good
Meanwhile, the Jr. C. Ironmen
are looking pretty good heading
into. next: season. Brown said the
team is financially secure and on
paper is losing only one player.
Rugged blueliner Joe Walker, who
returned to the fold after three
seasons .with the Brussels Bulls, is
no longer eligible, to play due to
age.
Three players could have been
lost in the OHA draft but were not
selected. Chris Fischer, Steve
Schwartzentruber and Deryk Hastie
made the draft list.
Brown also said some players
will be trying out for some Junior B
squads.
"It's kind of premature to say
at this point, but on paper we can
ice a premium club. I think this is
the best group we have ever started
a season with."
Brown added the veterans will
Bill Brown
be facing some stiff competition for
positions this season,
' "We've got some Midgets that
can play well and have heard from
a few other guys who have Junior
B tryouts that have ,expressed
interest in playing in Wingham if
that doesn't go well. It's going to
be a very competitive camp. I'm
looking forward to it and getting
everybody back and working hard.
We've got some talent and some
tough decisions."
He said he was also happy that
assistant coach Pete Goodall will
also be back on the bench with him.
The team will take to the ice in
Listowel on August 28 for training
camp.
