Dingwell
gets post
Two former members of
the Exeter police
department were the central
figures in a decision by
Mitchell council in
appointing a new police chief
this week.
The job was finally won by
Jim Dingwell, a former
chief of the Mitchell police
who resigned to operate a
restaurant in Kincardine.
The other leading
candidate for the job was
Alex Balazs, presently chief
of police in Tavistock.
Mitchell's police
committee actually
recommended that Balazs
get the job, but council voted
5-3 in favor of Dingwell.
Exeter Chief Ted Day was
a member of the committee
which reviewed all the
applicants and'nartow6d the
field down to the final three
candidates.
Indoor pool
mentioned
The topic of an indoor
swimming pool was
broached at Exeter council's
session, Tuesday.
Councillor Morley Hall
said he had been to see rec
director Don Gravett and
had cited his concern over
the limited use of the
outdoor pool.
Hall said he threw out the
idea of an enclosed pool for
year round use' and
wondered aloud how many
local people travel to
Vanastra or London to use
enclosed pools in the off-
season.
Councillor Lossy Fuller
noted that a pool had been
considered in conjunction
with the building of the rec
centre, but at that time it
had been decided it was not
feasible.
The centre was designed
so a pool could be added,
Mayor Shaw noted.
While members appeared
to think an enclosed pool
May be a welcome addition
to the community, the
subject was quickly
dropped.
Others taking part in the
talent show were soloists
Angela Hardy and Paula
Hodgins. Both young ladies
deserve honourable mention
for their performances.
Judges for the talent show
were Bob Heywood and
Mary Alderson.
The audience was enter-
tained at the conclusion of
the talent show by a duet.
Sandy Wilson and Denise
VanDeVen sang several
songs, accompanied by
Denise on the guitar.
The sporting events at
Friedsburg days attracted
plenty of spectator interest
and some- keen matches in
