Clinton News-Record, 1979-12-06, Page 2t.�Ila3dty, c PAGE 2. GL INTQN NEWS-RECORIat THURSDAY*, 1979: Someone, this past week, rims"s-".tyhave read my threat to write "fors" and againsts" - the following came creeping across my desk as an "Against". Maybe other armchair - quarterbacks feel much the same. Football statistics are very much overdone on TV broadcasts - such as passes attempted - completed, quarterback sacks, (the kind you put the cat in?) , third down conversions (to a 1st?), etc. etc. and now we have the most important of all??? The "hang time", measuring the time the ball is in the air from leaving the kicker's toe until it is touched by the receiver or the ground. Why all these are so important when one team does little statistically and still wins the game. +++ A press release received this week in- forms us that the federal member for Huron - Middlesex, R.E. "Bob" McKinley, addressed the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association Conference in New Zealand on November 27, 1979 +++ Mr. and Mrs. Ed Porter entertained Ed's family from St. Marys on (Grey Cup Day.

Familiar words from 5-7 year- old boys and even more so following a visit to the police station and firehall Wednesday night. Fire Chief Clarence Neilans gave the Beavers a tour of the firehall, stopping to point out dif- ferent types of engines and where the hoses and coats were dried. A special treat was allowing the boys to sit on the engines, a privilege which will not soon be forgotten. Our next stop was the police station and for the first time there were 24 Beavers in the holding cell. Constable McFadden took the time to fingerprint each boy, explained wanted posters and displayed different types of guns. Following a` brief question and answer period, the Beavers got an inside look at the cruiser complete with flashing lights. Constable McFadden and Chief Neilans made the evening very special for the Beavers and for this we say a great big Beaver "Thank You". Cubs: Growing a plant from a seed, a crystal, a chemical garden or planting a shrub and taking care of it for a reason are just a few of the Black ' Star requirements and what better place to get information than from an expert. Iden Cooke, of K. C. Cooke Florist, gave ten Cubs, who visited the florist shop Thursday, a very interesting and informative evening at the greenhouse. Raksha and • the black star group "thank -you" Mr! Cooke. Jeoff Lyon and Matthew Kerrigan have fulfilled all the requirements for swimming and were presented with their swimmers badge.

As a result the hospital will call in a consultant from the provincial health ministry to decide :whether the present location is acceptable. Mary Vair, president of the hospital auxiliary, objected to the move, saying that she had been approached by up to 60 mothers and hospital workers Lwho are upset about the situation. She noted that the noise of a sick child crying all night can be upsetting to other patients and pointed out that, while other patients have • facilities available for relaxation and therapy, there is no longer any play area for the children. Another board member asked why the board had not been consulted about the move. Hospital director Norman Hayes said that the board wasn't told about the move because it was an operational decision. He did offer to' call in the, senior nursing consultant from- the health ministry to review - the situation. Mr. Hayes noted that the nursing staff had been co' stilted, althoug he ad fitted the nu sing staff disagreed wit i the relocation and wanted to keep the ward on the first floor, :para has faced this by changing boundaries in tratford and triple grades in some schools. He said staffing was a concern with the 19 schools in the system overstaffed according to the board's ` formula. In 1980 he said he is hopeful of getting the staff , to what it should be. in Kingsbridge i�? - tegrated transportatich has been' working out satisfactorily and saving the board money, he said, and he hoped this could be continued in other 4 areas. He said the primary thing is to think of the children and aim to provide the best education for them. Murray said, "If I'm needed, I'll be here." Rev. Tony Sonderup, e Brd Wingham, Dean of Stratford Deanery, asked the board how to get more enrolment "Have we gotten into the habit of - thinking 'small is beautiful'?", he asked. Can we not think more positively and think of larger families?, In other business the board passed a b.orrc ;wing by-law. of $3 million to be used to carry on board business until current revenue has been received. This is up a half million dollars over last year. • A -nominating com- mittee of the board chairman, vice- chairman, director of education, and John O'Leary was named to select the board com- mittee.
