Hullett council honours winning ball teams The Bantam Girls team and the PccWce Boys team of the Inter Township Ball League were invited to the October 1 meeting of Hullett council for the presentation of indi vidual trophies in recognition of their championships. Council gave consideration to the report of the Wagner and Hallam Drainage Works Repair and Improvement. It was adopted and the date of October 22 at 7:30 p.m. was set for the Court of Revision. Tom Pridham of R.J. Bumside & Associates are to call for tenders for the work on the drain. Tenders are to be in by 4 p.m. on October 22. Council agreed to cooperate with the Huronia Branch of the Humane Society, that after the retention period ends, unclaimed dogs will be contributed to the Society through a representative. As well, the township will give to the Humane Society the fee that it would cost had the animal been destroyed. Reeve Tom Cunningham and Clerk Bev Shaddick were given authorization by council to sign the agreement between Hullett and Carl Nesbitt, regarding unopened road allowance Sideroad 25/26, Cone. 14. Council is requesting the Huron County Waste Management Committee review the mitigation policies with a view to easing the impact on the property owners adjacent to the landfill site or sites and the municipality in which the site exists. Council suggested that the cost of maintenance of roads be compensated to the township in which the site is located through an apportionment of those costs to all municipalities using that particular site. Also, that the three-year guar antee period be deleted and full appraised value to awarded to any original property owner whose land value might be affected by the landfill site. This would eliminated the need for these landowners to decide within a set period of time whether or not to sell their property or risk devaluation after three years. Council voted not to support Sombra Township on a 911 service at this time due to costs. A tile drain loan application was approved for Lot 14, Cone. 3, sub- THE ELECTION by Abigail Ramirez On September 20 at B.P.S., nom inations were opened up for the stu dents' council executive positions of president, vice president, secre tary and treasurer.

Mr. Morton is the new Grade 7 teacher. He teaches us geography, history, sci ence, physical education, music and art. He lives in Belgrave with his daughter and son, Heather and Ian, and his wife Judy, who teaches al Howick Central School. We interviewed Mr. Morton and asked him several questions. He went to school in Newmarket and Ottawa. He has not always been a teacher. He started out as a mechanic. He has had lots of experience, though. He has taught Kinder garten, and Grades 4, 7 and 8. He has been a librarian and a school resource teacher. When we asked him what he liked about leaching, he said “Kids!” Mr. Morton is only at BPS in the morning. In the afternoon, he per forms the duties of the president of the Ontario Public School Kevin Fraser. It is New York City, 1965. When compulsively neat Felix Unger (Hardee T. Lincham) is booted out of home by his wife, the already- deserted and divorced Oscar Madi son (Victor Ertmanis) invites his friend and poker-playing buddy to move into his lonely, unkempt eight-room Riverside Drive apart ment. Within days of arriving, it becomes evident to this mis matched pair's weekly poker game cronies Vinnie (Nicholas Rice), the Teacher's Federation. When we asked him what he likes about BPS, he said, “The friendly people and the warm atmo sphere”.
