loving memory of a dear hus-

who was called home 6 years ago,
December 2, 1977.
We cannot bring the old times
back,
Your hand we cannot touch,
But we still have sweet memories,
Of the one we loved so much.
What we would give to hold your
hand,
Your happy face to see,
To hear your voice and see your
smile,
That meant so much to us.
What you suffered you told but
few,
You didn't deserve what you went
through,
Tired and weary you made no
fuss,
But tried so hard to stay with us.
They say that memories are
golden,
And well, we guess that's true,
But we never wanted memories,
We only wanted you.
Sadly missed and never forgot-

THORNTON — In loving memory
of our most beloved grandmother,
great-grandmother and great

Thornton, who God took home 1
year ago December 9, 1982.
You meant so very much to us
That nothing we can say,
Can tell the sadness in our hearts,
As we think of you today.
We watched you suffer, we
watched you die,
But all we could do was just stand
by.
When the time came we suffered
too,
For you never deserved what you
went through.
God took your hand and we had to
part,
He eased your pain and broke our
hearts.
You fell asleep without a goodbye,
But memories of you will never
die.
Never for a moment,
Are you very far away,
Absent, and yet near you seem,
And dearer every day.
Resting where the shadows fall,
In peaceful sleep she awaits us
all,
God will link a broken chain.
When one by one we meet again.
It doesn't matter the day or year,
There are always memories,
always a tear.
Memories don't fade, they just
grow deep,
For someone we loved, but could
not keep.
Remembered always as a
grandmother who was dear and
kind to everyone. Sadly missed
more each day by your grand-
daughter and grandson -in-law
Shirley and Stan Preszcator, their
children and grandchildren. 49x
Huron board
acclamations
The new chairman of the
Huron County Board of
Education intends to carry on
the open lines of communica-
tion between the board and
the public.
Eugene Frayne, 53, of RR 3
Goderich was acclaimed to
the position of board chair-
man at the inaugural meeting
held December 5.
"My aim as chairman of
the Huron County Board of
Education to c'cvelop the
board's rc : and image." said
Frayne, a stand taken by past
chairman Dorothy Wallace of
Goderich.
He told the numerous
members of Huron County
council that were in atten-
dance at the meeting that
neither the inaugural or the
annual budget meetings are
the "ideal situation to
understand what the Huron
County Board of Education
undertakes to do for the
students."
Frayne asked county coun-
cil to invite either the director
of education Robert Allan or
himself to a county council
session to discuss the pro-
blems faced by the board.
"Our forefathers never
questioned the price of educa-
tion and neither should we.
Education is the most impor-
tant thing we hand down to
our children," said the new
chairman.
Retiring Huron County
Warden Grant Stirling
responded to the new chair-
man's remarks by adding his
own invitation. He suggested
that trustees attend their local
municipality's council
meetings to keep councils up
to date on the happenings at
the board level.
"We're the first ones to
hear the complaints," said
Stirling.
The new chairman is a
farmer in Ashfield Township
and represents the separate
school ,supporters for the
north part of the county
Ile served on Ashfield
Township Council for five
years as a councillor and two
years as a deputy -reeve.
Prior to the amalgamation of
local school boards, Frayne
served for six years as a
trustee on the Kingsbridge
school board Ile has been a
member of the Huron County
Board of Education since
1977.
Frayne and his wife Betty
have eight children, two of
which are still at home atten-
ding Goderich I)istrict Col-
legiate Institute.

���/// Rape victim jailing
Controversy raged in the
Legislature this week about
the case of a rape victim
given a jail sentence for con-
tempt of court because she
refused to testify against one
of the men she had previous-
ly said raped her in January,
1982, on her 19th birthday. The
man was acquitted of rape
because the Crown was
unable to make a case against
him without the testimony of
the complainant.
A similar charge against a
second man was dismissed a
month earlier after the
woman refused to testify
against him at his
preliminary hearing, saying
she feared for herself and her
family.
The Attorney -General says
he has no legal ground to in-
tervene in the case, but Op-
position members have
repeatedly called upon the
A.G. to have the woman
released as soon as possible.
Liberal Leader David Peter-
son referred to the "bizarre
situation" in which "a rape
victim has been jailed and the
alleged rapists are going
free". This is, he says, clear-
ly an injustice and the
Minister has an obligation to
respond.
A lengthy 24 -page state-
ment on the case was read in
the Legislature by the
Attorney -General, speaking
of fundamental principles of
justice in this very complex
matter, and citing key events
in chronological order.
The complainant reported
to the Ottawa Police Depart-
ment on 21st January 1982
that she had been raped.
Later that day one accused
was arrested and a warrant
taken out for a second.
In his statement, the A.G.
said that there had been no
evidence of direct threats,
that the complainant testified
at the preliminary hearing,
apparently without difficulty,
that her telephone had been
monitored by the police, that
she was offered a reasonable
level of protection by the
police, a new identity, reloca-
tion assistance etc. - which
she refused.
During question periods
and an emergency debate on
the issue, in which members
of all parties participated,
many diverse questions were
asked.
For example the fact that
the Crown is intended to act
as a buffer between the vic-
tim and the accused, with the
intention of avoiding the
possibility of threats being
made. Concern that in sexual
offence cases where the vic-
tim has been traumatized, the
criminal proceedings adds to
the suffering of a victim or
witness, which is especially
the case with rape situations
- a particularly vicious
offence.
Describing the statement of
the Attorney General, Roy
McMurtry as a 24 page
justification for the jailing, he
asked the Minister to consider
the impact of the incident on
other victims of "this horren-
dous crime".
Other facts came to light
during the debate, including
the fact that one of the co -
Clarke defeated Joan
VandenBroeck of Saltford
who also sought the position.
Committee chairmen were
also named at the inaugural
meeting. Frank Falconer of
RR 5 Clinton will chair the
education committee, while
Dennis Rau of RR 2 Zurich
heads the management com-
mittee for the coming year.
John Jewitt of Londesboro
is chairman of the personnel
committee for the coming
year.
Con fro vers y
accused had been shot, that
there had been talk of a
"deal" between the Crown
and the co -accused on a lesser
charge. As Sheila Copps
pointed out, in the two -years
of protracted proceedings and
events, the young woman had
moved from laying charges at
the preliminary hearing to ac-
cepting a contempt charge
rather than testifying against
a background of events, in-
cluding the shooting, which
would understandly produce
fear, regardless of direct
threats or lack of them.
David Peterson warned Mr.
McMurtry of the signal which
was being sent to rape vic-
tims - who are already
humiliated, traumatized and
fearful - that they also run the
risk of being victimized by be-
ing sent to jail.
Also cited in the debate was
the gang rape of a woman in
the Thunder Bay area - a
woman who was still deter-
mined to pursue charges, but
had allegedly been advised by
the Crown Attorney that the
charges were being
withdrawn. The reason? The
fact that she had been raped

by a number of men might
be interpreted as
demonstrating a certain will-
ingness on her part, and the
fact that she had a high
alcohol level at the time
would work against her also.
The House was reminded
that reasons for not reporting
rape are primarily: fear of
publicity, of not being believ-
ed, of the court ordeal, or
reprisals by the assailant,
that the offender will be ac-
quitted. Members were ex-
horted: "Don't add fear of be-
ing jailed".
SMOKE GETS HIM
Exeter Councillor Morley
Hall was among those in at-
tendance at the inaugural of
the Huron board of education,
Monday, and while the brief
visit gave him a better ap-
preciation for those responsi-
ble for running education, he
noted that local council
meetings have one distinct
advantage over board
meetings.
That's in the difference in
the smoking regulations.
Hall told his cohorts Mon-
day night that he would end
up with sore eyes and other
problems associated with
smoking if he had to attend
board meetings regularly.
He said it was obvious that
board members should take a
second look at their policy
regarding smoking at ses-
sions, particularly in view of
the fact they should be setting
the standards for education in
that regard as well.
Hall, who has previously
urged that local trustees corn -
municate more f 'equently
with councils, said that Huron
warden Grant Stirling had
cited the same need during
his brief talk at the inaugural.
Huron -Middlesex MPP
Jack Riddell was also on hand
and told trustees that the On-
tario government's share of
the Huron budget has declin-
ed to 48 percent from 61
percent.
`I can see why the board is
scratching to make up this
loss," Hall concluded.
