Phee Beach adds to town's health too Dear editor, I was pleased to learn that doctors James and Leslie Rourke believe "that a healthy life style not only increases enjoyment of life but helps -prevent illness ... for many people of all ages, swimming is an ideal form of exercise." They are certainly to be commended for their altruistic stand. It seems logical that they would then support the town's construction of recreational facilities along St. Christopher's Beach that takes advantage of a large natural swimm- ing pool, Lake Huron. It is therefore puzzling to learn that the town has spent thousands of dollars on legal costs to defend the existing beaches and recreation facilities, against these very people who believe in a healthy life style for the town's people. If the town should lose this legal wrangle, the doctors would effec- tively curtail any further expansion of these excellent recreational facilities. Perhaps the doctors would explain why they would want to own property that would block such a worthy town project that all could enjoy free. Dave Weary. Health Unit's Program is commended Dear Editor, Co-sponsored by the Huron County Health Unit, the Huron County Chapter of the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario recently completed its third annual series of Blood Pressure Screening Clinics across the coun- ty. The Huron County Health Unit's work pro- moting the foundation's public education programs in the county warrents commen- dation. We are particularly proud of the Unit's initiative in piloting the Culinary Hearts Kitchen in the province. Their evaluation will determine whether or not this project will be implemented elsewhere in Ontario. In 1983, their work on the cardiovascular disease prevention cur- riculum for Grades 7 and 8, again a pilot project, has been well received in many jurisdictions across the province. The Huron County Health Unit has, through their work, earned a respected reputation in the province. As a result of their success, other counties look to Huron School get one year reprieve Ecole Ste. Marie has received a one year reprieve. The Huron -Perth Roman Catholic separate school board announced at its November 18 meeting that the school won't officially close its doors until June 1987. The school had been slated for closure in June of 1986. School board chairman Ron Marcy said the provincial education ministry has in- dicated it would only allow portables at St. Boniface in Zurich for the 1986-87 school year. The students from Ecole Ste. Marie would have been transferred to the Zurich school starting next year. The board had planned an addition at the school which included several classrooms. The trustees agreed that they didn't want the students in portable classrooms. Marcy also said there wouldn't be enough washrooms at St. Boniface to accommodate the increased number of students. "The ministry won't give money this year. We've been led to believe that if we wait a year, we'll get the money then," he said. • They the ministry I better come through this time," added the chairman. Ile did say the trustee for the area, Dave Durand, and Jack Lane, the superintendent for business and finance, met with the pa repes and students about the change. Mac Campbell is... for leadership in the field of public health education. It is fitting that their work should be acknowledged. • Yours truly, Stan Connelly President Battery tips not called for Dear editor; I am truly horrified. At this time of year, Chief Pat King reminds readers about the pitfalls of unlocked vehicles, security for Christmas lights, how to mark cassette decks with special pens available at the sta- tion, etc. Most people, especially myself, ap- preciate this. However, why would a man of his stature say that some people with .weak batteries would get one, but not from Cana- dian Tire. What an unpatriotic and low blow that has nothing to do with season tips. Why even CTs colors deliberately match the flag. The next time you say something in print I shall verbally come down on you. Now go on out to Canadian Tire, buy something and I hope they forget to give you your coupons. Merry Christmas, indeed.
