GODERICH, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY•91 f 1057
Seen crossing the, bridge at Saltford is one of the
types of trucks carrying a load in excess of the ten
tons gross weight limit called for by the Ontario
Department of Highways. It is feared that one of
these days a heavily loaded truck will crash through
the antiquated structure and hold up regular traffic
for a , lengthy time. During the summer tourist
season, it is not uncommon to see a line of cars
waiting at each end of the bridge to get over the
narrow, 75 -year-old bridge. See editorial on page
two for further details.
New Yacht, Club Plans
Base On Ship Island
Seeking a temporary home for
the newly organit ed Goderich
Yacht Club, Bruce Sully, the com-
modore, )(appeared before Town
Council Friday to enquire about
the possibility of leasing space in
a town -owned freight shed at the
waterfront.
The request was referred to the
water, ,light and ,harbor committee
for a report. S. H. Blake, town
-clerk, said he believes that. the
centre portion of the green freight
shed is unoccupied at'present.
Commenting on the large num-
bers of US. yachts which come
up this way in summer, Mr. Sully
stated: "We're losing money we
could have in Goderich. This port
seems to be a good place to come
in for gas, then get out. I think
it would be a ,good thing for the
town if we could get these visitors
to come in and stay for a while."
This was one of the reasons
which had prompted the formation
of the Goderich Yacht Club, he
tar........'"*c".*:.."
r. Sully ontinued, "We have
-- --- - - ---lettsed---Ships-Islands(ins-thessineers-
harbor). 'We 'plan to put some
dockage up and erect a club house
eventually. We would like to im-
prove our own mooring because
Snug harbor is getting congested."
�II• Inquiring about the •possibility
leasing part of a freight shed,
said, "We need space for boat
storage and a base of- operations
until we get on the island. We
eventually hope to get our own
boat sheds on theisland."
Teach Safety
Besides. providing a place where
U.S. yachtsmen and their families
can be welcomed and entertained,
the new club plans to teach water
safety to the younger people of the
town and_district, .
With more:and more people be-
comirtg interested in boating, water
safety is becoming ' more of a
problem, iMr. Sully told The Signal -
Star later. In the hope- of pre-
we.nting possible drownings, the
new club plans to teach "water
responsibility" to the younger set,.
Construction of a suspension
bridge to Ship Island is one of the
first tasks facing club members,
the commodore said. After that,
the little island must be cleared
and docks built.
' Besides Mr. Sully, other club
officers are: vice -commodore, Gor-
don McManus; secretary -treasurer, .

ospital Deficit $32
Need Aid To Equip in
Operations of Alexandra Marine
and General Hospital in 1956 re-
sulted in an actual deficit of
$320.45, it was announced at the
annual meeting on Monday even-
ing.
According to the auditoessstate-
ment, the excess of expenditures
over income was $9,197.41. How-
ever, the list of expenditures in-
cluded an item of $8,876.96 for
depreciation allowances on build-
ings and equipment.
It was explained that the de-
preciation figures are used mainly
to conform with government ac-
counting procedures. At any rate,
before deducting depreciation al-
lowances, the operating deficit was
only $320.45.
Total income was $142,16941 and
total expenditures, including de
preciation all(Avancts, ' reached
$151,386.82 last year.
Referring to the 42-ned wing now
under construction, .1. 11. Kinkead,
chairman of the hospital's Board
of Governors, stated: "Funds for
furnishings and equipment are de-
finitely needed. At present, we
have sufficient funds to complete
the building and provide some
equipment."
-Contract for the new wing was
awarded last October to Qoinney
Construction for $423,841.74.• This
price does not include most furn-
ishings and equipment.
The board now has about
5427,000 in sight. This money Is
drawn from the following sources:
Town of Goderich, $125,000: sur-
rounding townships, $30,000;. Coun-
ty of HurOn, $35,00D; ptovincial
and federal grants, $14000; avail-

Approve Mobile Phone
For Local Police Car
Installation of a mobile tele-
phone in the town police cruiser
has been approved by Town Coun-
cil. The move was made in an-
swer to complaints .by Crown At-
torney II. Glenn Hays and others
that it is extremely difficult to get
an answer when one phones the
police station.
When the now equipment is in-
stalled by Bell Telephone Co., tele-
phone operators will divert calls
to the cruiser when there is no
answer at the police station.
The system is to be installed
shortly at an initial cost of $50
plus monthly rental of $38 and
toll charges. A' heavy duty gen-
erator must be installed on the
cruiser first.
Earlier, Council had received
another offer from an electronics
firm to set up a two-way radio
system which would serve both
the police and the Public Utilities
Commission.
It was suggested at Friday's
Council meeting that a request
from Goderich Recreation and
Arena Committee for a grant of
$12,000, "about the same amount
as last year," 'he referred to fin-
ance commit•tee.

ferred to committee of the whole

Robertson, "so we can -find out

Councillor Joseph Allaire: "They
want the money; we'll have to pa
it anyway."
"Right To Know"
Councillor Roberton: "I claim
that this Council has a right to
know what ihe arena corronittee
is doing for the coming year."
On motion of Councillor Robert
son, seconded by Deputy -Reeve
Donnelly, the $12,000 request was
finally referred to committee of
the whole Council for, discussior
at a later meeting.
A letter from Harrison & Co.,
Toronto bond house, informed
Council that it had found a quick
sale for the $125,000 hospital de-
bentures issued by the town a
few weeks ago.
Council passed a by-law confirm-
ing the appointment of George W
McIntyre to the Town police force
at a salary of $2,800 annually.
Requests for use of Agricultural'

DELEGATION, AFR
OF ACCIDENT ALLE
A delegation from Goderich and the Townships of Col-
borne, Ashfield and West Wawanosh will go to Queen's Park
to press for immediate action to replace the ancient Saltford
bridge and rebuild the approaches. Frankly "fed up". with
waiting for the Ontario Department of Highways to start con-
struction, a group of district residents approached Town
Cpuneil Friday night to suggest that district interested muni-
cipalities join forces in an all-out effort to get action.

construction work for some of our
ratepayers that could pYobably be
brought along sooner if we !mew

There would be even more ac-
cidents on the Saltford road, he
suggested, except that special pre-
cautions are taken.
= Both Reeves Blake and 'Kernigh-
an thought that some pressure on

bridge and the treacherous, wind-

stated.
