Bell proposes network for TV transmission An Ontario -wide network to bring high-quality television receptiontp .most communities of 1,000 housolwlds or' more has been proposed by Bell. Canada. The network would carry four television 5 channels into more tl!an.t19: COMIlthOefo,includinfl, many in the north where recep- tion is poor, or the choice of 'than- • eels is limited. The signals would be retrans- mitted to residences in each com- .; nunity by local cable -TV com- panies. Bellhas'discussed the proposal with representatives of the Cana- dian Radio and Television Com- mission, and with the federal and provincial .ministries responsible 'for :communications. Approval for the establishment of such a network would come from government authorities. Bell would act only as provider of the transmission facilities.. J. C. Thackray, executive vice president for Bell's Operations in Ontario, estimated the cost to each household at about 50 cents a month, with a • province -wide network including all major centres. He estimated the network could be completed within about two years of approval being given. "This network could bringa dramatic , mprevement in tele- vision reception in many commu- nities that now receive only poor quality signals or a limited choice of channels," said Mr. Thackray. "At least half of thecommuni- ties are outside the high popula- tionbelt that runs from Ottawa to Windsor, and many are north of the Great Lakes, where TV reception has never been satis- factory." , Mr. Thackray said that Bell Canada is in a unique position to provide _ such a service at a reasonable cost, since it already has, a widespread microwave transmission system throughout the province. The proposed tele- vision transmission network would be carried on the micro- wave system, supplemented by new extensions into some com- munities. All proposed communities are either on the present microwave system, or no more than one hop away. (Microwave systems transmit communications by beaming signals between towers normally located about 30 miles apart.)

Mr. Turkheim reported a pres- entation on technical programs in Huron Secondary Schools was given at the Education Com- mittee meeting by thefollowing technical directors — Walter Fydenchuck, South Huron; Ed Beard, F. E. Madill; .Murray Mc- Gill, Goderich Collegiate and Bill Craig, Central Huron Secondary at Clinton. They explained the background and philosophy of technical education; the effects of the credit system on technical education in this area and the fut- ure of the -course. The board' approved the Management Committee recon mendation that the services of a competent mason be retained to carryout the masonry repairs on all county schools on a cost plus basis, the name and the condi- tions of the agreement to be sub- mitted to the board for its ap- proval. The board approved a sub- division plan proposed for the vil- lage of Zurich, but the board rep- resentatives from the area, Her- bert Turkheim and Charles Rau, and the senior administrators • will bee directed. to,'consuW with the county 'planning director, Gary. Davidson, with regard to future provision for school ac- commodation. It was suggested that the plan for 38 lots not be approved. but Mr. Turkheim said there was a critical need for homes in .Zurich and this would hold up the start on the subdivision. The area is situated about a half mile from the present public school in Zur- ich and will be adjacent to St. Boniface Roman Catholic School, Talking about the number of pupils who might be expected from the new subdivision, Mr. Turkheim said, there might be about 76 pupils, with a fifty-fifty split, half for the public and half for the separate school. Mr. Turkheim said if Hydro does build a nuclear powered generating station in the area, as rumours indicate, it would not be for five years and the increased accommodations needed would be studied to prepare for that oc, currence at a later time.

Motorcycle mishap hospitalizes woman An.RR 2, Bluevale woman is in fair condition in- Wingham and District Hospital following a motorcycle accident on Hwy. 86 near Bluevale, on Saturday. Mrs. Shirley Ann French suf- fered multiple• abrasions to her face, neck and back and a frac- tured left shoulder blade when she lost control of her motorcycle wli she hit gravel on the high= wa near the railroad track..

The youth apparently lost control of his car ,and ran into a hydro pole on Hwy. 86 just west of Lucknow. On April 10 Mrs. Ida McLarty of Brussels was admitted to hos- pital with a fractured leftankle resulting from a fall at her home. She is listed in satisfactory condi- tion by the hospital. Julie Nicholls, 6, of Wingham was admitted. to hospital suffer- ing from a concussion after she fell from a bicycle on Friday. The hospital lists her condition as Satisfactory. On April 12 David Huber, 17, of , Lucknow was treated for burns to his left hand. He was later re- leased. Couty concerned with two kinds of bidg. nspectors Warden William Elston of Huron County has drawn the at- tention of The ,Advance -Times to a possible confusion in references to inspections of plumbing and sanitary installations in net► or renovated properties. County 'Connell has , re- organized the inspection of plumbing installations through- out the county. However, the Huron County Health unit is pres- ently carrying out, inspections on the installation of septic tanks. At its last session the county was asked to .endorse the take- over of septic tank .installations by provincial inspectors working out of London. Approval . by the county has not been granted so far, according to Mr. Elston, and his council will oppose the move. Their contention is that the in- spectors employed by the county health unit could carry out the in- spections of both plumbing and sewage disposal at the same time and at a much lower cost than would be the case if the two in- spections had to be done by sep- arate authorities.
