Box 160 Clinton Program ends The. Listowel Canada • Man- power Centre for Students of- ficially brought the 1975 Sunnier Employment Program•to a. Close on Friday, August 29. Despite the gloomy predictions made in the spring, the summer employthent campaign was a successful one in this area, this year. A total of 245 vacancies was reported to the Student Manpower Office, result- ing in 237 placements. In . com-, parison, in 1974 the total number of vacancies received was 389 and the number of placements was 287.. The two student counsellors employed for the project during the summer visited 501 employ- ers to solicit jobs and distributed adverting flyers throughout the area. The newspaper, radio and television advertizing combined with posters, bumper stickers and bulletin board slogans were responsible to a large measure for the success of this year's campaign. • John Chippa, manager of the Listowel Canada Manpower Cen- tre expressed the gratitude of the Department of Manpower & Immigration and students in the area to all of those businesses, householders and other persons who created vacancies and- hired students to assist them to return to school this year. The total number of students who found work is not known because not all employers hire through the Man- power office and not all students register for work at the office. In general, however, it appears that the summer in this area was a productive one for young people. In 1866 Reverend W. C. Bom- pas, later to become Bishop of the Diocese of Athabaska, was given a roving commission in the Northwest Territories. In 1870 he travelled more than 4,000 miles by canoe and snowshoe, a dis- tance never previously at- tempted by anyone in the North in such a short period. The ''W" ce nounced fcrSe The Chief Election Officer of Ontario, -' .erlch Lewis, has ex- tended , e advance poll for the Ontario general election. In addition to the tdates desig- nated by The Election Act -- Saturday, Sept. 13, and Monday, Sept. 15, -- advance polling will be held Friday, Sept. 12, In the riding of Huron -Brace, advance polls will be held ',in: Port Elgin at the fire hall on the corner of Emma and Goderich streets, Kincardine at the Town Hall on Main Street, Wingham at the Armories on Edward Street and in Brussels at Haywards Store on the west side of Main street. Hours for the special Sept. 12th advance poll will be 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. EDT. Normal advance polling hours, prevailing Sept. 13th and 15th, are noon to 9 p.m. EDT. The extension follows repre- sentations that the Saturday ad - 'once poll would be during the Jewish Sabbath and the Monday poll falls on the Jewish holy day of Yom Kippur. "Also, it has been pointed out that many people are still away from home on weekends in mid- September, so the additional day will be a convenience to voters wishing to cast their ballot early," said Mr., Lewis: Advance polls are held "for the purpose of receiving votes of voters who expect to be unable to vote on polling day in the polling subdivisions for which their names appear on the polling lists," states The Election Act. In addition, the Act sets out the Saturday and Monday immedi- ately preceding election day as advance polls. Enumeration The special enumeration phase of the Ontario electoral process is under way and continues until Sept. 10th. It is for qualified voters missed during the Aug. 20- 23 enumeration period„ and those whose name is not on the pub- licly -posted list of voters in the area in which they live. Qualified voters not yet enumerated for the Septa 18th provincial election should contact their Returning Office and special enumerators will be sent out to obtain the necessary in- formation. Returning Officer telephone numbers may be ob- tained from Directory Assistance — 411. To be qualified to vote in next month's general election, a person must be' (by Sept. 18) at least .18 years old, a Canadian citizen or British subject, and a resident of Ontario for at least 12 months preceding election day. Residents of urban electoral districts not on the list will not be allowed to vote. Rural residents may vote if another qualified voter vouches for them. Student Voters Special arrangements are being made to get students on the list of voters for the September 18th provincial election, says Mr. Lewis. The special arrangements will include electoral enumeration tables in university registration areas and campus dormitories. Students — like anyone else — may also be put on the voters' list by contacting their Returning Officer, and special enumerators Injuries, damages in car. accidents The Wingham detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police re- ported five persons injured last week in car accidents. Three men were injured last Wednesday on County Road 16, west of the east junction of County Road 19, Grey Township, when John Galbraith of RR 4, Listowel and Gran! C. McLean of RR 3, Walkerton' were involved in a collision. Both drivers were injured as well as William Galbraith, also of Listo- wel, who was a passenger in one of the cars. Damage was esti- mated at $4,500. Charles D., Scott- of Wingham was injured in a single -car acci- dent Saturday on Highway 87, east of the Highway 86 junction, Turnberry Township, when his vehicle went off the road through a ditch, then through a wooden fence and a field before overturn- ing onto its roof. Damage was estimated at $1,500. On Sunday, Bruce W. Brown of Blyth and David L. Glanville of RR 1, Exeter were involved in a collision on County Road 12, north of Hawkes Street in Brussels. Mr. Glanville was injured when his car struck a hydro pole. Total damage was estimated at $4,650. A collision was also reported last Wednesday on Huron County Road 28 at Johnreet in Gorrie. Involved in the accident were Michael E. Bross of RR 1, Mild- may and Fred Coulter of Gorrie. Estimated damage was $500. „ Alfred D. Podhorny of RR 1, Belmore was involved in a single - car , accident Sunday on Con- cession 12, west of Huron County Road 12, Turnberry Township. Damage was estimated at $800. A second accident that day occurred on Highway 86, west of the Bluevale Road junction, Morris Township. The driver of one car was Dennis P. Solomon of Kitchener; the other driver is unidentified. Damage ways ,esti- mated at $200. will be sent out to obtain the necessary informatto... - However, the last day for any- one —including students — to get on the list of voters is September 10th, the deadline for revisions. He says "there is a general misunderstanding that --students have a choice of voting either at their regular residence or their residence while attending an educational institution. Ac- cording to The Election Act, there is no stich choice. Students are no different froom any other voter in Ontario —they must vote in the electoral district where their regular residence is located." Mr. Lewis says the difficulties arise from the definition of a stu- dent's "regular residence." "For married students, the residence definition is where the spouse resides. That's where they're enumerated and that's where they vote. "For students who still con- sider their -parental residence as 'home', then that is their regular residence and that's where they should have been enumerated and on the list of voters. "However, says Mr. Lewis, "for students who no longer con- sider their parental residence as `home'; their regular residence is wherever they happen to live.". This means students in the transient category of the "regular residence" definition are entitled to vote in the elec- toral district -where • they are attending college - if that is where their "regular residence" is'located at the time of the elec- - tion. Students, — and any - other, qualified voter - who have been enumerated in one electoral dis- trict and move to another may FOR CLASSIFIED ADS Phone Wingham 351-2320 R apply to have their vote trans- ferred.
