Suspended drivers are fined Two area men who pleaded guilty to driving while their licenses were under suspension, were fined $250 Parents warned of adult calls Bell Canada is advising parents in this area that certain telephone numbers in the United States provide access to Adult Entertainment messages that may be inappropiate for children. These numbers are ac- cessible from Canada by dialing 1-900 plus the number. Peter Croome, Bell's local manager, said the numbers are being advertised in certain adult magazines and that a charge applies. "The numbers are being passed by word of mouth and people think they are toll-free. In fact, there is a 50 cent charge for the first minute and a 35 charge for each additional minute," Peter Croome said. Parents may wish to review telephone uasage with their children and establish guidelines for all types of calls. Drowning claims former resident The son of a former Exeter resident was one of the two men who drowned while scuba diving inthe frigidwaters of Trout Lake near Innerkip on March 2. The body of William Grant Cud - more, 29, of 40 Becher St., London, was found in the lake three days after the incident by a Woodsock OPP div- ing team. Coroner James Town of Woodstock has ordered an inquest into the death of Cudmore and his companion. Town said investigators may never know how the tragedy happened, but it is in- dicated the two men somehow became unhooked from their safety line, which led to their entry hole in the surface ice. The coroner said an inquest will serve to publicly air the facts of the case and might also lead to recom- mendations on preventing similar tragedies. Cudmore is the son of Gordon and Audrey Cudmore. each when they appeared in Exeter court, Tuesday. In addition, Justice of the Peace Douglas Wedlake gave them a further six-month suspension to run con- secutively to any current suspension. Arthur Morris Morgan, RR 2 Lucan, was charged on January 18 after the vehicle he was driving was stopped in Exeter at 12:55 a.m. He ad- mitted that his license had been suspended from November 25, 1985, through to February 24, 1986. Morgan reported that another per- son had been driving the vehicle, and the accused took over because the original driver was drunk and Morgan feared they would be involv- ed in an accident. He said he had planned to drive on- ly to get to a phone. He was given five months in which to pay the fine. The other accused, Gary M. Sauder, 106 St. Lawrence Ave., Huron Park, had been stopped for speeding at 11:25 p.m. on February 11. He produced a valid driver's license at the time, but a subsequent police check revealed it had been under suspension since April, 1985. Sauder was given 15 days in whicn to pay the fine. Daryl Raymond, 411 Main St., Ex- eter, and Edward James Neeb, 34 Main St., Zurich, were each fined $78 each after pleading guilty to a charge of failing to leave premises when directed to do so. Evidence revealed the two men, ac- companied by three others entered a Zurich residence on February 5 and were asked to leave. When they didn't, police were called. The court learned that damage estimated at $150 had been caused to the premises by the uninvited guests and that they are making restitution. Neeb and Raymond were given 60 days in which to pay the fines. In the only other case, Steven W. Kirk, RR 2 Lucan, was found guilty on a chatrge of speeding at a rate of 100 in an 80 km. zone on January 1 and fined $33. He was stopped on Huron Road 2 after an oncoming cruiser clocked the vehicle of the accused at 110. The accused said he didn't own the vehicle and it had oversized tires and he thought he was only going 55 m.p.h. Wants ABC levy withheld until priorities charged The Village of Bayfield won't be paying its levy to The Ausable- Bayfield Conservation Authority if at least one councillor has his way. Coun. Lloyd Huffman said the fact that an erosion control project on .Long Hill Road in the village was not included in the 1986 budget doesn't make sense. He says the severe ero- sion on the road should make it the number one priority of the authority. ABCA general -manager Tom Pro- ut said the province, through the ministry of natural resources, did not fund the project this year. Ile did say the authority has not given up on possible funding and is still lobbying the ministry. Coun. Huffman said he had originally been told that the project was on for this year. Ile also question- ed the fact that the province gave 'W!'LL TALI If you need a speaker for your program or club call Heather, 237-3637.

Although the erosion control project in Bayfield was estimated to cost $120,000 to $130,000, Mr. Prout said a recent geotechnical study indicated the cost could go as high as $300,000. The Bayfield councillor said that at the next meeting of the village coun- cil, he would recommend that the general levy to the authority not be paid. "At least until the authority gets its priorities straight," he said. Prout said the Bayfield erosion con- trol project is ranked third locally but has a diffOrent ranking provincially. "We didn't get money for our top priority project either," said Prout. The number one project i`erosion control at Lucan. Coun. Huffman said the Stanley Township and other fire departments use hong Hill Road as access to the lake from which to draw water. Ile added there are 10 residents, some year round, on the road. Propose two year phase-in for grade 7 and 8 courses A two-year phase-in of industrial arts and family studies is possible for Huron County's grade 7 and 8 students. A proposal for the phase-in, prepared by the administration of the Huron County board of education was presented to the school board at Its March 3 meeting. The proposal is to be considered by the board as it prepares the 1986 budget. Costs for the program have been estimated at $199,000 for the first two years, reported director of education Robert Allan. This includes four teachers at $38,000 each, busing estimated to cost $28,000 and materials budgeted at $19,000. Now, industrial arts and family studies are offered only at Seaforth public school and Victoria public school in Goderich. However, schools in the area are bused to the two centres. Students going to Seaforth are from Huron Centennial in Brucefield, Hen- sall public school, Blyth public school and Hullej.t Central public school. Clinton public school, Holmesville public school, Colborne Central and Robertson Memorial in Goderich travel to Victoria. Huron students generous with time and money Students in Huron County are generous with their time and money. This was proven at the March ses- sion of the Huron County board of education when a list of beneficiaries of the students was presented. Seven foster children in far off lands are supported by Huron Coun- ty students. Also, they have contributed money and goods to international, national and local charities. Some of these are the heart fund, multiple sclerosis read-a-thon, earthquake relief and African relief. Locally, they have assisted the Family and Children's Services Christmas bureau and the Salvation Army plus many more. "We commend these schools, students and staff for their support and understanding towards those who need assistance," stated director of education Robert Allan. Name changes recommended Huron County's three schools for the trainable mentally retarded may no longer be known as such. A recommendation from the Huron County board of education's special education advisory committee calls for "trainable retarded" aud,.,Ihe, school's name to be dropped. The board's executive committee will be looking further into the matter. The three schools are Golden Cir- cle at Wingham public school, Huron Hope at J.A.D. MacCurdy in Cen- tralia and Queen Elizabeth at Victoria public school in Goderich. The idea, explained director of education Robert Allan, is to have the schools use the name of the school building they are in. He suggested that as an example, it would be the Huron Hope wing of the J.A.D. Mac - Curdy school. The executive committee will also have to take staffing and school budgets into consideration. cka Tharkyou P1l e l Oe5 pldniS rightergtreer IS Waster Kids iud5 Seals Canada 1966 1' At, these schools, grade 8 classes take 8t minutes and grade 7 classes have 60 minutes. The classes are divided, but not by sex, into the two programs and switch in the middle of the year. The school board's administration propose that grade 7 and 8 industrial arts and family studies classes be started at R.E. Madill secondary school in Wingham. There would be a reshuffling of where schools go to take the program. If accepted by the school board, it would start in September of this year. For the following September, in 1887, administration proposes that South Huron District high school is Exeter be used as a site for the grade 7 and 8 program. The Exeter high school would serve the south end of the county. This proposal follows closely on the heels of secondary school principal Joe Wooden's report on technical education filed last fall. The report recommends that industrial arts and family studies be provided universal- ly to grade 7 and 8 classes across the county.
