Mr. Harold Sibury and Mr. Bill Johnson, on behalf of the Bayfield River Cottage Col- ony, made representation with regard to a right of way, established by common usage, across the top part of the property. Mr. Sibury ex- plained that according to in- formation obtained recently it was understood that a pro- posal was afoot which would -=' ` e,a orni_. with- -an-old-road- survey, air`old--rail-survey, and which would thereby deprive cottagers of this privilege. Reeve George Fellows ex- plained that the matter dated back several years. Some litigation had subsequently ensued. Ile thanked Mr. Sibury for br- inging the problem to the council but advised consulta- tion with the appropriate department of the federal government. Bills presented for pay- ment were approved with the exception of an "un- solicited account" received from the ministry of hous- 1 ing. Since Council did not feel justified in passing this for payment without further information, the Clerk was requested to obtain details from the ministry. The Clerk was also asked to investigate the advan- tages of bulk purchase of basic items used for the cleaning and maintenance of council property. Councillor Johnson advis- ed council that he had now been contacted by five organizations . ,intereed_ _in the formation of a flown Hall Committee. He was propos- ing to call a meeting in the near future, and stressed the fact that any other in= terested parties should con- tact him as soon as possible if they wished to• be represented. Regarding the use of the municipal building, a recom- mendation was made that all organizations in Bayfield be allowed to use the building, with the understanding that any group involved in a pro- fit making activity would be required to obtain Council's approval of eligibility. What's happening Historical Society The March meeting of The Historical Society will be held on Monday March 23 at the municipal building at 8 ppm Miss _ Dorothy McLeod and Mr. Joe Mayman will be talking about the fishing in- dustry. A.B.C. Bridge For the fourth week runn- ing Ruby Uniac made the top score with 5980. Marny Walden was second with 5900, and Kelly Ball, low with 1760_._ A further $10 had` been donated to the fund for the Clinton Hospital Extension, bringing the total to $75.00. Well done, girls! La rnpoo By Bud Sturgeon I'm in lousy humour this week. The annual massacre of baby harp seals is taking place on the east coast of Canada and the event sickens me. Before 1 get too deep into that mess I will relate what little humour I do have for this week "Rabbit" Larocque for Pahnateer. Picard was only the middle man. Toronto never trades with Montreal. That media -hype is bull roar! In 1960, Toronto traded Al MacNeil to the /labs for Stanley Smrke. Everybody remembers Smrke. He had three lifetime assists in the NHL over two playing seasons. If you can't quite recall that glorious trade, just think, in a few years you will have forgotten about "Bunny" for Bobby. There have been other equally astounding deals over the years such as Doug Barkely for "Pie Face" MacKenzie and Len Lunde. How about 1954 when Toronto traded Leo Boivin to Boston for Joe Klukay or 1962 when they dealt Roger Cote, Bill White, Jim Wilcox, Dick Mattiussi and Wally Boyer to Springfield of the AHL for Kent Gemmell Douglas. It's all too astounding for me to think about. Go Dave Hodge go! +++ Now it's down to business. It is a very sad state of affairs when the Government of Canada can condone the brutal and vicious slaughter of thousands of helpless harp seal pups. Although we are geographically removed from the actual sight of the massacre, the modern technology of TV brings this outrage into our living rooms in livid colour every night. I watched in total disgust as these so called 'men' marched onto the ice floe and bashed in the skulls of the baby, seals with wooden mallots. Some of the baby seals were still alive when they were skinned. Ministry officials confiscated cameras, and films from the bystanders because they didn't want anyone taking photographs of 'their' circus of cruelty. I wonder if they were too embarrassed at the display? The 'hunters' really came across the screen as being of a violent nature. One seal killer had to be physically restrained from commiting an act of violence on a Greenpeace representative. He swung his fists and cursed and swore and the cameras recorded it all. I guess it is only natural progression to graduate from smashing in the brains of a seal pup with a club to try the same on a human. At least that is the way one `hunter' acted for the cameras. Others just resorted to flattening tires on vehicles parked in the area. That shows a lot of class, doesn't it? These packs of migrating seals aren't even setting a foot on Canadian soil so what gives the government the right to licence men to go out on the ice floes and beat the baby seals to death? How can anyone justify setting a quota for killing on these helpless animals? The women that buy the fur coats made from harp seal pelts might as well be swinging the clubs them- selves. It is too bad that at the time of purchase they couldn't think of the baby seals 'crying out' as they were bludgeoned and skinned alive. It sure paints a nice picture. I believe that the Greenpeace organization is doing a fine job and if the Governrtient of Canada would stop meddling in their affairs, these conservationists would put an end to the slaughter. However, the Government is to gutless and prefers to turn their backs on this problem. At the present rate of slaughter (the harp seals are an endangered species) they will be extinct in a few short years. This sure is great advertising for Canada around the world. Trudeau and his Government are sick, sick, sick people. It was also agreed that in future it would help if annual applications were submitted by organizations using the building on a regular basis. Council also decided that the free use of the premises car- ried responsibilities and those involved should leave the building clean and in good order following meetings. On behalf of the committee of adjustment, Brigadier Morgan Smith notified coup - increase m crl of a pro charges and minor ad- justments will now be $50 and severance, $75. He also advised them of the propos- ed plans of the old Ormond property and was able to answer queries related to this matter. Councillor Gwen Pember- ton was unable to stay until the end of the meeting due to another commitment. But the .meeting was unique in that it was able to conclude its business in the record time of two and a half hours!. Ro d A surprise birthday party was held for Harry Israel last Saturday night in Bayfield. The party was hosted by Ken Johnson, at his "Hearthstone", and guests included the Turner- K.amrns of Varna, Barbara Horst of Calgary, Jan and Arlene Kok of Toronto (the new owners of the Bayfield Country Store), Jim Moriar- ty of Toronto and Dorothy Piner of Bayfield. The Bayfield Flyers' are holding their 1981 organiza- tional meeting at the home of Ray Bender this coming Sun- day evening at 7 p.m. The winner of the draw for the giant chocolate `Easter Bunny', at the Nip 'n' Tuck Variety Store, was Bob Turner of Bayfield. Mr. and Mrs. Matt Smith and family, London, were at their Bayfield cottage over The sap buckets are out on the trees in Bayfield again this year, and so far, the 'run' has been excellent, and of good quality. The sap is behig boiled by the Vanderhaars and will use a number of pancake breakfasts this spring. (Bud Sturgeon photo) out Andrew Erickson visited for the weekend with his Aunt Norma Stewart, Gor- don and family, at their RR2, Ripley address. Ron Diemert, St. Marys, was a Saturday guest of his brother Rick in Bayfield. Bill and Betty Aberhart, Sarnia, occupied their village residence during the weekend. Gary and Edna ' Hulley, Paris, and Ken and Bobbi Hulley, London, were weekend visitors to Bayfield at their respective cottages on Howard Street and Lake Shore Road. Crystal Taylor has recuperated from her recent e operation and along with her son Jamie, and a little bag of gall stones, returned home to husband Jim in Londesboro after a week's stay in Bayfield with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Huff- . Joanne Sturgeon graduated from the Marvel School of Hairdressing in London this week and will soon take a position. Ed Siddall is readying his fishing boats (now in Goderich Harbour) for the time when they will be able to break out through ice and commence the 1981 season. Although most harbours in his sector of the lake are still e streets blocked by ice, the Sarnia Harbour is open. Mrs. Don Lance of Main Street and her daughter-in- law, Mrs. Chris Lance of Royal Oak, Michigan, were in the village over the weekend visiting with friends. Guests of Mr. Bill Parker over the weekend at his village home were Bob and Wilda Parker, Jack Parker, Julia Mayas, Kevin and Pam Hodgins and Jeremy from Dorchester. They had a great visit with their grand- father. John Cook of Howard Street fame, but basically from Ingersoll in the 'off' season, was spied, over the weekend attending an auc- tion in Hensall on Saturday and at a 'Nostalgia Show' in Woodstock on Sunday. For those that are in- terested in the life and times of the Moleman, he spent a quiet weekend at work and didn't cause any trouble. Winnie Da nborough celebrated her llrthday last Thursday eqiening with a pink cake and a host of friends at the Albion Hotel. Howard Street residents Were less than amused on Monday morning last when a smallish brown dog took the time to scatter their garbage all over hell's half acre. Girls slo-pitch to expand this season The Bayfield Recreation Committee held their regular monthly meeting at the Municipal Building last Thursday evening with baseball, soccer, lacrosse and badminton receiving top billing.on the agenda. Names are still being col- lected for those wishing to participate in 'seniors' baseball on a recreational level this season. Gord Com- pton has advised the com- mittee that the Recreational Slo-pitch Girls League would like to enlarge their opera- tion this year. At present, the league is made up of three teams from Paul Bunyan Camp, Pinelake Camp and Wildwood Camp. Games are played on weekends only. Anyone interested in enter- ing another team into this league should contact a member of the Rec- 'Committee for further details. A baseball `Spring Train- ing Dance' will be held this Saturday night at the com- munity centre with proceeds earmarked for equipment. The new baseball diamond is to be surveyed this coming Saturday morning and the plan will be submitted to the Agricultural Society for their comments. The soccer equipment is being retrieved and plans are underway for the 1981 season. Another meeting with area co-ordinator, Jack Mayhew, will be held in a few weeks. Alun Thomas will be co-ordinating the soccer program in Bayfield. Anyone wishing to help with soccer should contact Alun as soon as possible. A feasibility study into starting a badminton club' in Bayfield for this summer is underway, so contact Matty Francis if you are in- terested. Once the ice is taken out in the arena for the season, it has been suggested that recreational lacrosse could be played. Anyone wishing to participate m°bc1'patoe..._ n . should contact the rec-committee. As a final order of business, chairman Bill Talbot reported on his recent trip to the annual meeting of the Lake Huron Zone of the OMRA in Walkerton. Oldtimers down one After finishing first in regular season play, the Bayfield Oldtimers find themselves down one game to nil in their two game total goal series with the Rink Mice. L The Mice lead by virtue of a 13-12 win last Saturday night. The final game of the season will be this Saturday night at 7 p.m. Everyone welcome to play: ocal rink wins spiel The Men's Curling Spiel as top finishers was the rink was held at the Bayfield comprised of Pat Graham, arena last Saturday after- George Telford, Vic noon and taking the honours Lecompte and Doug Telford. The sap's ' - - --ari---'----- running ag many maple trees in Bayfield were tapped last Tuesday as the Lions Club initiated preparations for their 1981 series of Pancake Breakfasts which begin on May 24. This season, the maple ' trees in Clan Gregor Park were spared and the em- phasis *as on tapping the trees which stand along the sidestreets. It was felt the ones in the 'square' needed a rest. To date, about 1,200 gallons of sap have been col- lected as several days have provided excellent runoffs. By the time the last trees were tapped on `opening day', the first buckets set out Will you join the dance? The last time I' talked to Fred Squirrel he had curtail- ed our conversation rather abruptly in pursuit of a little stranger. Standing outside to enjoy a little promise of spr- ing suggested by brilliant sunshine and blue sky I was suddenly aware of a little red squirrel watching me carefully from a branch just above my head. "Tovarich," he said softly, "Pajalousta - I mean, how you say? Please madame - I would speak with you?" He almost bowed. "Of course," I replied, frantically delving into my pocket for a pen and the back of an old envelope. "Please do go on - tell me all about yourself." His little eyes twinkled and he moved a lit- tle closer. "I am Boris," he declared with a fldurish of his tail, "Boris of the Bolshoi," and this time he bowed most elegantly. My surprise com- municated itself to him, because he retreated a short distance and performed a most delightful and expert pas de chat (or should one say pas d'ecureuil? ). I ap- plauded. "Da," said my new little friend. "Yoti are surprised - niet? But to dance in the trees, that is the ..." "Quintessence," 1 sug gested. Boris beamed. "Da, yes, the very word The quin-tess-ence of oui art. For this are the squir. rels of the Bolshoi in- famous," he declared proud - were already full to overflowing. Until the recent cold snap, two trips a day to collect the elixer were necessary. This year's sap is showing 'a relatively high sugar content. Last Sunday, the weather was quite balmy and the runoff amounted to over 800 gallons. Heading the maple syrup committee this season is Steve Shanahan. Many help- ing hands are appearing as the collection gets into full swing including the old pro, John Lindsay, and Rick Penhale. The sap is being boiled down into syrup by Doug and Fred Vanderhaar. Schilbe's have loaned a 200 gallon collection tank and Koma Boats repaired the original plastic collection tank for the group. Providing the hauling power so far have been the trucks of the Bayfield Building Centre, Walter Orr and Rick Penne.,. It is expected that with the good runoff experienced to date, that the amount . of maple syrup made will ex- ceed the earlier predictions.
