idea she had seen effectively
worked out at the London
Conference U.C.W. held in

the ocean by using crinkled
and creviced tissue paper in
shades of blue and green. In
them she had placed a large
boat explaining that
everyone was the captain
responsible for its valuable
cargo - time, talents,
treasures and trash.
Mr. George Cowan, invited
by Mary Howson convener of
Stewardship, to speak on this
subject, raised many ques-
tions in the minds of his
listeners - testing of the
cruise missile, proper use of
land, censorship of TV pro-
grams. Can we sometimes
say, "We won't obey the
law?" "Is civil disobedience
ever right?" he asked.
President June Peck
touched on highlights of the
London Conference in
Woodstock in May which she
and her husband had attend-
ed, and Evalena Webster

A dedication ceremony for the George Radford Memorial Ball diamond will be held June 8 with activities kicking of at 7 p.m.

In Blyth
medication ceremony to be held
By Rod Hilts
In the fall of 1982 the
George Radford Memorial
Baseball Diamond was
completed for an estimated
cost of $8,000. On June 8, the
Village of Blyth will hold an
official opening to the bs”
season and a dedication
ceremony of the diamond.
The ball park was erected
in memory of the late George
Radford, who known as a
great sportsman in the
village.
Mr. Radford died on May
24, 1981, at the age of 69. The
cause of death was site
"heart failure and oth
medical complications."
Mr. Radford grew up in
Londesboro and moved to
Blyth in 1937. He first got
involved in the construction
business at the age of 15. On
May 24, 1927, Mr. Radford
purchased his first truck
from a local dealer for $100.
In 1928, he expanded his
horizons to the gravel
business by building a gravel
box on to his truck.
The purchase of George
Radford Construction's
present location on the main
street of Blyth was made in
1941. .In 1960, George Rad-
ford C6nstruction ' became
incorporated as a company.
According to Mr. Rad -
ford's daughter Mrs. Diane
Wasson, George liked
baseball but couldn't par-
ticipate in it because of his
health. Mrs. Wasson sail
that her father and mother
Lila both attended baseball
games regularly.
The idea to build the
baseball diamond came
from George Radford
Construction Manager Doug
Scrimgeour. Mr.
'Scrimgeour, Lila Radford
and Diane Wasson donated
$1,000 each toward the
construction of the diamond.
The company also donated
equipment and labor to
assist in the building
process.
The construction of the
diamond was a real com-
munity effort.
The Blyth lions Club,
which Mr. Radford was a
strong member of, donated
$500 and Blyth Minor Sports
donated $1,000 towards the
nroiect. Thr, Blyth industrial
Ball League donated labor to
put up the fence surrounding
the diamond. Paul Yanchus
Construction contributed the
labor to put the memorial
plaque in place and assisted
in putting in the fountain.
The Village of Blyth and
PUC contributed labor and
materials.
Clerk Larry Walsh said the
village "is quite pleased to
have the use of such a
facility." Mr. Walsh said
that in the future the village
hopes to add spectator
seating and lights to the ball
diamond.
The addition of a second
diamond in Blyth has
allowed the village to host a
32 team softball tournament
that is slated for the weekend
of August 4.
East Wawanosh taxes
increase eight percent
Ratepayers in East
Wawanosh Township will
pay approximately eight
percent more overall in pro-
perty taxes this year than in
1982.
The budget and mill rates
were discussed at council's
regular meeting. But
members said they thought
the road portion of the
budget was too high,
therefore asked Clerk -
Treasurer Winona Thomp-
son to trim it somewhat. She
did so and the reeve and
councillors gave verbal ap-
proval to the revised budget.
When contacted later,
Reeve Neil Vincent said he
thinks it is a "good tight
budget" with small, infla-
tionary increases in most
categories. The road allot-
ment in the original budget
was a bit high, he said, so
Mrs. Thompson trimmed
that part.
This year, a public school
supporter with a farm and
residential unit assessed at
$6,000 would pay $1,289, an
increase of $96 from 1982 or
7.4 percent.
A separate. school sup-
porter with property assess-
ed at $6,000 would pay $1,286
in property taxes, up $92
from 1982, or 7.2 percent.
East Wawanosh will col-
lect $141,463 for township
purposes, an increase of 5.5
percent from last year. The
county of Huron's portion of
the tax bill is up five percent
this year to $68,075.

East Wawanosh taxes
increase eight percent
Ratepayers in East
Wawanosh Township will
pay approximately eight
percent more overall in pro-
perty taxes this year than in
1982.
The budget and mill rates
were discussed at council's
regular meeting. But
members said they thought
the road portion of the
budget was too high,
therefore asked Clerk -
Treasurer Winona Thomp-
son to trim it somewhat. She
did so and the reeve and
councillors gave verbal ap-
proval to the revised budget.
When contacted later,
Reeve Neil Vincent said he
thinks it is a "good tight
budget" with small, infla-
tionary increases in most
categories. The road allot-
ment in the original budget
was a bit high, he said, so
Mrs. Thompson trimmed
that part.
This year, a public school
supporter with a farm and
residential unit assessed at
$6,000 would pay $1,289, an
increase of $96 from 1982 or
7.4 percent.
A separate. school sup-
porter with property assess-
ed at $6,000 would pay $1,286
in property taxes, up $92
from 1982, or 7.2 percent.
East Wawanosh will col-
lect $141,463 for township
purposes, an increase of 5.5
percent from last year. The
county of Huron's portion of
the tax bill is up five percent
this year to $68,075.
