The idea behind: the club is to foster in the mimds of 'teen-age car drivers the idea of safety, to- gether with inaproveiment factors and pride of ownership. Pull details will be, given ito all youths interested, not only from Goderich but fromanywhere in the County, at a mee•ting,zto be held on Monday, November 26, at 8 p.m., at the Scott Armstrong Garage, corner of Elgin avenue and Victoria street. - s With the Provincial Police for three months at Goderich, Con- stable Dubrdok served five years with the Royal Canadian Navy. His idea for starting the tlub originated as a result of the many warnings and penalties being hand- ed east do iteen-age car drivers, particularly around the Square. Gonrtaible Dtabrick feels 'there are three reasons for 'teen-agers driving "jalopies" around the town streets recklessly: 1. They haven't, got a suitable place to work on their cars. 2. They haven't the know-how on having their cars properly fixed. 3. When one per- son owns .a car he can not get assistance from another person iri fixing his ear. Constable Dubriek says that the Scott Armstrong has offered his garage as a headquar- ters for the proposed club; :that motor Mechanics will be invited to ggive the club members talks on looking after weir ears; that the members will be given instructions and assistance in helping one an- other fix their cars. Many more interesting details concerning the club will be given at the meeting next Monday night. 4'lan to attenfl and tell your friends about i BINE LEGION HALL GODERICH Saturday, Nov. 24 JACKPOT OF $75.00 FOR FULL HOUSE IN 57 CALLS. e.o lst GAME STARTS AT 8.30 P.M.
