Grace Patterson honored
for volunteer work
Beta Theta Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi in
Goderich, has chosen Grsce Patterson as
this years' recipient of the "First Lady
Award".
Grace has been volunteering her time for
years. Grace and her late husband, Pat,
were instrumental in bringing Kinsmen and
Kinettes to Goderich in ' 1945. Under their
leadership many worthwhile projects were
spearheaded. Grace is still active with
Kinettes and has received'a rarely -awarded
Elspeth Rodgers Certificate, for her years
of contribution to this service organization.
Grace was President of the Volunteer
Association at the Goderich Psychiatric
Hospital,_ and, years later, when it became
Bluewater Centre for the Developmentally
Handicapped, she remained on as President
of the volunteers, until the Bluewater Centre
was closed in 1983.
Grace was a foster parent with the
Children's Aid Society for more than .25
years and received recognition for her
dedicated contributions. She is also
treasurer of the St. George's Anglican
Guild, a position she has held for the past 30
years. Many more pages would be needed to
tabulate Grace's many achievements dur-
ing her dedicated volunteer work.
Grace's response to receiving this award
was, "Now why would you girls do a thing
like that! I really haven't done a thing."
Location of Hydro line
is issue with Foodland
"We do not disagree with the need for la
500kV power line out of the Bruce Nuclear '
Development", said Ken McGregor, Vice -
Chairman of Foodland Hydro. "The issue is
where the line should be located."
"We agree with the Porter Royal Com-
mission that recommended in 1979, after
four years of hearings, that only one more
500kV line is needed put of the Bruce. It also
recommended avoiding agricultural im-
pacts even if there are cost penalties."
McGregor went on to say, "This position
was confirmed by -the Consolidated Hearing
Board three years later in 1982. Their
recommendation was the modified M3 route
from Bruce to Barrie and on to London via
Milton. This route was found to have the
least impact on valuable foodland."
"Contrary to some media coverage,
Foodland Hydro has . not delayed the
building of a transmission line. The delay
was caused by those along the M3 route, who
sought to set the decision of the hearing
board aside."
McGregor is a member of Foodland-
Hydro, a broadly based group of landowners
. and other concerned citizens from Bruce,
Huron and Middlesex Counties-, opposing a
hydro corridor travelling south from Bruce
to London, through much of the best
agricultural land in the province.
Board seeks provincial
dollars for programs
BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE
The needs of technical programs in Huron
County secondary schools will be looked at
with an eye to getting more provincial
dollars.
At Huron County board of education's
May 6 meeting, trustees heard and approv-
ed a request from director of education Bob
Allan for the technical study.
Allan's request calls for onestaff member
to study the current situation in Huron
secondary sc th000ls and how They caTi l
brought within ministry of education
guidelines.
There will also be an evaluation of family
studies and industrial arts in Th eTeme`niary
schools.
"We've studied technical education quite
SrF
a few times. Is this another exercise in futili-
ty?" questioned trustee John Elliott.
Allan said the idea is to put forward a pro-
posal to the provincial government to up-
date technical studies. The director was
basing his request on Premier Frank
Miller's election proposal "Enterprise On-
tario".
Huron's action, will give it a head start
towards Mr. Miller's objective of providing
funding for school training programs.
Although AiJai said he -didn't know *hat ef'
feet the outcome of the provincial election
would have on Enterprise Ontario, the
board will go ahead with the study.
He's either a principal r vice-
principa will be used for the study. Allan
stressed this is not an add-on position.
