decision on the part of county
councillors. .
On a recorded, vote in the
matter, , Council voted 27-27
with the tie being broken by
Goderich Reeve ,Deb Shewfelt
. in favour of the deer season.
R•eev,p Elgin Thompson
showed hisdispleasure to the
way in which Reeve Shewfelt
broke the tie by saying that in .
his; 'opinion,"it Wag' unfortunate ..
that today's people ° would
allow animals.such as deer to
run around with an arrow dr a
bullet in their hind quarter.
Reeve Shewfelt countered
with, "That might be " better
than starving to death."
Evidence brought to county
council last month by lands
and forests officials showed
there are many deer in Huron,
enough to warrant 4 a deer
season. "

:deer season and approval was
finally, given by council for .a
gun season frog a November 11-

County councillors
believe Hydro
should Communicate
.BY SHIRLEY J. KELi..ER
,At a session of Huron County
Council last Thursday, mem
berg once' more reiterated their
belief that if Ontario Hydro
would make known their inten-
.tions concerning possible
nuclear -expansion in, Huron;
the county ..ould use the infor.
•
mation to the advantage of all.
In a brief but somew_ hat
frustrating discussion, it was
.learned that since last -month's
council meeting there has .been
no further communication from
Hydro regarding 'the unofficial .
announcement that a nuclear
plant is planned t-witniri 20 or
3Q miles of Goderi,ch,_.
Reeve Everett Mcllwain ad-
mitted he got "a. little carried
away" while speaking to coun-
cil last Thursday. _.
Reeve Mcllwain said that in
his opinion, there were "Some•
irresponsible statements being
made" in connection with the
a n n ou,neem•ent,
There is no point of just ob-..
jesting for objections sake„'
said McIlwain., "Farmers don't
want to go back ,to pumping
water by windmill. We're using
more hydro all the time. It is a
necessary item: It is needed by
all industry. -
•McIlwaan said there Jwas 'a lot -
of talk dabout loss of tarm land
when "in actual fact, land was
not lost." Ike advocated
knowing more about Hydro's
plans as well as co-operation
between Hydro and the people
of the area.
-
Warden Bill Elston said that
in ,his opinion, the main
problem was that. farmers are
'•not receiving enough financial. -
consideration from -Hydro when
lines cross their land.”

enjoyable thing in 'anyone's fife. And it will always present
