The former chief of the Seaforth department stepped down from his position and Corporal Ray Primeau of the Goderich deatcliment has been acting chief for the past six weeks. Although he has been away from police work almost two Hal Claus years, Claus said it has helped give him - a new perspective on police work.

But Cieslar said he wonders if there will be funding for youth pro- grams, which is also a priority. The greatest killer of adolescents said Cieslar, are accidents and suicides. He indicated public health needs to help adolescents deal with their problems. He said the Huron Public Health Unit is already involved as a resource for teachers in setting up programs in the high schools as \` well as providing films on related topics. Paul Steckle, chairman of the board of health, told council the members of the board were distressed by the report. He said it • is disturbing when you learn that 100 percent of the students surveyed drink alcohol and 75 percent are smoking cigarettes. Itmay seem humorous at first said Steckle, but when you consider the implications it is serious. "We are very disapproving of the report and I feel all adults and parents should be setting an example," he observed.

STRICKLAND MOTORS TOYOTA - AMC Huron hood, F .,' rine 24-8411 Hauling affects county roads BY SHARON DIS - Trucks hauling aggregate from sources in Huron and Bruce Counties to southern counties has caused rn for the harmful effects on the county's roads residents. Saugeen area, and Grey, Bruce and Huron Coflnties has been designated as suppliers to the other areas of the province, especially Toronto and Sarnia, where there is a need for aggregate since their sources are depleted. County engineer Bob Dempsey reported tn county council at their May meeting Thursday that the Ministry of Transportation and Communications (MTC) has approved the take over of concession 11 and 12 in the township of Goderich as part of the coun- ty road system. Several companies in the area are hauling aggregate over the concession to southern counties and for this reason the road meets the criteria of a county road, due to the increased access to industrial and conunercial centres. Dempsey also reported the Mineral Aggregate Transportation Study prepared for the Ministry of Natural Resources indicates the most significant im- pact to Huron County will be the hauling of ag- gregates from the southern part of 4i:ey anti bru4x Counties to major users in the London and Sarnia area. Irkinpsey said the report indicates the most economical and appropriate mode of transportation is rail. Transportation by truck was found to be much more costly than transportation by rail. The report suggests the - harmful effects of the trucking of aggregates on local residents could be reduced by giving greater recognition in the MTC's municipal roads subsidy program for improving municipal roads used for aggregate haulage. The road surfacing program could also be enlarged so all roads used for significant aggregate haulage would be hard surfaced. The report further suggests if rail is used to haul aggregate, rail traffic will increase significantly. For example, between Saugeen and Toronto rail traffic would increase from a few short trains per week to 48 long trains per day. The Huron County Road committee has recom- mended the county engineer indicate to the Ministry of Natural Resources their concern for the hauling of aggregate across the county highway system and en- - courage the findings of the study be•implemented. Township woman says car swerved at her several times A Goderich township woman has charged that a late -model car with four or five youths- swerved towards her several times while she was walking on a township sideroad to meet her husband. Goderich OPP said that Jean Worthington reported the incident Friday, May 22 and claimed that a car full of youths swerved towards her several times and threw beer bottles as she walked along Polley Sideroad just east of. Highway 21 to meet her 1st end. The OPP said the area was investigated fully that same evening but the car in question was not located. Mrs. Worthington was only able to supply part of the licence number and police said they required the full number to trace the car. Two cruisers were sent to canvass the area but there was no trace of the - vehicle. - The Goderich Police Department was also given a description of the vehicle. Police said that last Tuesday, Mrs. Worthington also- reported that her young son, Tim, received a threatening phone call at the family home in the VLA subdivision. Mrs. Worthington said the youths passed close to her on the sideraod five times.and that she was struck with beer bottles on two occasions. She flagged down a passing motorist and reported the incident at the Goderich detachment of the OPP. Sgt. Dentis of the OPP said police require a full licence number to locate the vehicle. ouncil should represent taxpayers Dear Editor Whatever has happened to ....tat:,...

Could it be just a coincidence that the acting medical of- ficer of health, as of June 10, used to be a co-worker of the present hiL O.H., or was it planned by administration within the County? As well, I notice that the million dollar Highways Garage is being officially opened ata time of day that is inappropriate to the majority of the working population_ In questioning, I find that the opening coin- cides with County Council's Meeting date. Even though it could be debated that such an elaborate building will not improve the quality of the roads in the future, because the equipment is required on the road and not in a building to be performing their job, I would suppose an official opening is necessary. But -,I find it difficult to understand why an opening would be held at such an unusual time of day, and day of the week.
