on the mend.
The chairman of the Huron -
Perth Separate School Board
is back at the helm with
limited use of his right hand
after both arms were
damaged in a farm accident.
Ronald Murray of RR 1
Dublin chaired the board's
November 14 meeting, three
weeks after the accident in
which his arms were caught
in a grain auger on his farm
for about 40 minutes.
Ile was putting a plastic
tube on the end of the grain
auger to cnannel the grain in-
to the top of the bin when his
coat got caught in the auger.
The fact his coat and arms
were caught in the auger sav-
ed his life. said Mr. Murray.
although the pressure of the
machine on his coat formed a
tourniquet on.his arm.
"1 was lucky enough that
m• arm didn't break." com-
mented Mr. Murray from his
home.
The accident damaged
muscle and nerves in his arm
which affects the movement
oI his fingers.; His wife
Theresa. a nurse. applies
therapy to his arm -every day
at home.
The accident happened on
• Monday, October 24 and Mr.
1lurray came home the
following Saturday.
Ilis boys are doing the farm
work for Mr. Murray
although he said he has done
a •bit of plowing since the
• accident.
The chairman agreed that
those 40 minutes were the
longest of his life.

ing comments at the conclu-

pressed the personal and
community loss that had been

The meeting. which was
tense at times, ended on- a
jocular note when Usborne
representative Brian
Ilardeman wondered aloud
what would happen if it was
found that the biggest part of
the deficit was being incurred
in facilities or programs not
used primarily by township
residents.
"They'll give us back part
of our $1,200 grant." Tomes
whimsically noted.
During the discuss.on. 1t
was noted that Stephen
grant had nol increased strict.
the opening of the rec centre.
but Tomes answered that
comment by noting the
township is now providing
many recreation.facilities for
the use of township residents
that were not available at the
time the local lacilitiy was
J
erected •
Council policy dictates that
the seat t,e offered to the los-
ing candidate with the highest
number of votes in the last
election. That would be Ben
Hoogenboom.
