Employees at several Goderich banks were dressed up on Friday in Halloween cosumes, in- cluding Superman Bill Hurley, jailbird Bob Morash, and Wonder Woman Judy Watt, all of the Royal Bank. (Photo by Cath Wooden) Five die in bridge washout Five persons died Wed- nesday after three vehicles plunged nearly 30feet into a creek that tore out a bridge near Lion's Bay north of Vancouver`. A combination of heavy rain and falling rock caused the bridge to crumble and three vehicles tumbled to the muddy creek. Four people in a van were killed and the other known. victim was riding in a car with four others. - One of the survivors was Joe Chisholm, 21, a Calgary salesman. Chisholm is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Don •�; Chisholm and the grandson of Mr, and Mrs. Ben Chisholm of Goderich. Chisholm said he 'was - driving on the bridge when it began to "just crumble" in front of them. He said there' was nowhere to go and nothing to do, the car was simply out in the air. Chisholm and three of his passengers found 'them- selves alive but almost buried in a swirling mud bath of creek debris. He was unable to recall how he freed himself from the wreck but _ three passengers made an escape through the smashed back window. Chisholm suffered a broken nose and was scheduled to have surgery in a British Columbia hospital. Got an opinion?

Godorkh, Ort, 524-4279 Dear Editor, Could you please publish the following item now that the children are back in school. "PLEASE DON'T HURT MY LITTLE GIRL" Dear Driver: Today my daughter who is seven years old, started to school as usual. She wore a dark blue dress with a white collar. She had on black shoes and wore blue. gloves. GODERICH,SIGNAL't5TAR, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 4,1981 --PAGE 5 travel with c. uti Her cocker -spaniel whose name is "Scoot", sat on the front porch and whined his canine belief in the folly of education as she waved "goodbye" and started off to the halls of learning. Tonight we talked about school. She told me about the girl who sits in front of her - the girl with yellow curls - and the boy across the aisle who makes funny faces. She told me about her teacher, who has eyes in the back of. her head- and about the trees in the school yard - and about the big girl who doesn't believe in Santa Claus. We talked about a lot of things - tremendously vital, unimportant things then we studied spelling, reading and arithmetic , - then to bed. She's back there now - back in the nursery - sound asleep, with "Princess Elizabeth" (that's a doll) cuddled in her right arm. You guys wouldn't hurt her, would ,rou? You see,' I'm her daddy. When her doll is broken or her finger is cut, or her head gets bumped, I can fix it - but when she starts to school, when she walks across the street, then she's in your hands. She's. a nice kid. She can. run like a deer and darts about lake a chipmunk. She likes to ride horses and swim and hike with me on Sunday afternoons. But I can't be with her all the time - I have to work to pay for her clothes and her education. So please Must town collect leaves on Saturday Dear Editor: It's 7:15 on a Saturday morning. My day off! What am I doing awake? The leaf machine just awoke me while sucking up the leaves at the house across the street. As a taxpayer, I wonder why the Town is paying to suck up leaves on a Saturday when surely the men are paid a premium rate. As I contemplate the matter further, I think back to when I was the age of my sons - and even when I was a teenager. I would help my dad rake the leaves and then we would burn them. I was talking to a friend yesterday who recently moved to Goderich. In the town where she lived - not far from Toronto - the residents still gather and burn their own leaves. Then I wonder why we can't do the same in Goderich. We all know that the Town is looking for ways to trim expenditures. Surely no one objects to the smoke in the Town. The . aroma is wonderful and the Saturday morning silence would not be jarred by the leaf machine! Norman B. Pickell Reader offers names... • from page 6 as well. It is possible that some of the faces shown in this present snap of Signallers of the 29th, were also in the Signalling Sec- tions eo-tions of various Battalions during the 1914-1918 War, but the features, not knowing the names etc.. are now too dark for careful examination. Age obliterates snap shot film and pictures. I have some. Some few years ago you had a photo of the Signal Sec- tion of the "161st Battalion from Huron County of which I was a privileged member. This is all the information I can give you at the pre- sent time but just wanted you to knowthat the Signal - Star is still read by some old- timers. Yours sincerely J. Watson Straiton, Toronto. Editor's note: The photo of the regiment was handed in to the newspaper by William P. Burke of Goderich. help me look out for her. Please drive carefully, please drive slowly past the schools and intersections - and please remember, that children run from behind parked cars. Please, don't hurt my little girl.
