Flood warnings continue to
be posted in town, The St.
Marys Journal -Argus
reported.
Although the water levels
have come down the war-
nings remain up after heavy
rains stirred up Wildwood
Lake, Trout Creek and the
Thames River. Water levels
in the flood plains including
downtown St. Marys rose to
precarioustly high limits. The
rains have now stopped and
the water is dropping back
slightly, but the warnings
0 remain in effect in the advent
of more precipitation.
The Exeter Times -
Advocate reported that over
400 people packed the South
Huron Recreation Centre in
Exeter recently to celebrate
the 10th anniversary of the
South Huron and District
Association for the Mentally
Retarded.
At the occasion, the $130,000
mortgage of ARC industries
was burned by Wardens
Jerry Ginn of Huron and Jack
MacDonald of Lambton. The
two counties donated $40,000
to pay the mortgage off.
The Huron Expositor
reported that the Seaforth
town council decided to
shelve a request from Clinton
for support for the police
0 communications centre.
Clinton was asking Seaforth
to support a proposal to have
the centre built in Clinton, but
the Seaforth council decided
not to make a decision until
they receive more in-
formation about the costs of
the system.
The Listowel Banner ex-
plained that a North
Easthope Twp. man, Earl
Lichti, 22, was charged in
provincial court in two
counts of mischief and sen-
tenced to 15 days in jail.
Lichti's charges and
convictions came after an
incident last summer when he
interfered with a horse and
buggy driven by Levi
Streicher and damaged a
bean crop of Frank Gerber.
Streicher was driving his
horse and buggy down a
sideroad when Lichti who was
•
the Rural Fire Committee
have decided to update their
rates charged by the
Wingham Fire Department to
participating municipalities.
The rates charged to
Wingham and the townships
of Turnberry, Morris, East
Wawanosh and Howick have
increased over the years but
it has never been written into
an agreement.
The fire department now
charges $100 an hour for
fighting fires in the town and
the townships, but when the
municipalities first signed the
agreement in 1950 the cost
was $10 an hour plus a dollar
an hour for each fireman
battling the blaze.
The Bruce -Grey Roman
Catholic Separate School
Board is proposing a new
school year, the Lucknow
Sentines reported.
The proposal, which breaks
away from tradition of having
school begin on September 1
and end on June 30, is now up
for public consideration.
The board is proposing the
closing of schools in January
since it is the coldest month
and more heat is needed. As
well, January has the worst
record for attendance during
the school year due to winter
storms and illness. To' make
up for the lost month,
students would begin school
during the last week of
August. They would close
from December 22 to the end
of January and end as usual
on June 30. There would be an
eight week summer vacation.
The Blyth Standard
reported that Morris will
continue to be a dry township.
Out or a possible 1,230
voters, only 295 went to the
polls and 55 percent voted to
make Morris "wet."
However, 1 60 percent vote
was required in order for it to
go through.
The IVlitchell Advocate was
on 'land recently to see the
Mitchell Bantam hockey
team in their glory when they
took the provincial cham-
pionship trophy.
Before a home crowd of 500,
the hockey players defeated
Port Perry 5-1 to take the
final series four games to
two.
The top hat was brought out
of storage in Goderich on
Wednesday, April 5 to honor
the first ship of the year to
come into the Goderich
harbour.
The Goderich Signal -Star
reported that Mayor Deb
Shewfelt presented Captain
Claude Jeannotte with the top
hat that has been used to
honor captains of the first
ship into the harbor since
1932.
Jeannotte is the captain of
the Agawa Canyon which
loaded up with 18,000 net tons
of salt bound for Chicago. The
arrival of the first symbolized
the opening of the shipping
season and meant the end of
layoffs for about 75 salt mine
workers.
Bradley Jewitt, 5, a kindergarten student at Clinton
Public School, was eager to impress dad, Ron, with his
reading skills on Monday evening. Parents and students
were invited to look through the school as part of

public school, looked proud of his son's progress. (News -
