CHSS student council wins their lawsuit The Central Huron Secondary School ( CHSS) Student Council was successful in a lawsuit brought against a London company in Small Claims Court on September 24. The matter, heard before Judge Grant in Goderich, involved a contract between the, student council and Ink Masters, a supplier of athletic clothes. The 1985-86 council ex- ecutive under President, Dave Stevenson, and vice-president, Don Hearn, had ordered 17 rugby -style sweaters from the company. The jerseys supplied, however, were in- ferior to the quality that the student council had expected. Consequently, Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Hearn sued Ink Masters for breach of contract. Ink Masters responded with a countersuit. ' Phil Cornish, a University of Western On- tario third year law student and CHSS graduate, represented Mr. Hearn and Mr. Stevenson at the court .hearing. After more than two hours of testimony and legal arguments, Judge Grant ordered Ink Masters to return the deposit paid by the council executive and to pay all court costs incurred. Ink Masters' countersuit was dismissed. LIMITED TIME ONLY! NOW TILL SAL, NOV. 1 A 7C PREMIUM DUALITY LATEX PAINT PERFECT FOR LIVING, DINING, BEDROOM WALLS AND CEILINGS.
