The Goderich Signal-Star, 1984-09-26, Page 9atP 4 Colborne Township Council Magician will perform The regular meet ng of Colborne Township Council was held on September 18 with Deputy -Reeve Bill Vanstone chairing the meeting in the absence of Reeve Russel Kernighan who was ' attending 4 Con- servation Authority/Water Resources Con- ference in Toronto. The clerk reported that arrangements have now been completed with Colborne Central School for the appearance of magi- cian, Tom Kubinek, at the school's "Meet the Teacher Night" on Monday, October 15 at 8 p.m. Mr. Kubinek had been contracted by the township to entertain at the Bicenten- nial Celebrations on July 21. He did not ap- pear however, and in an effort to make amends, he promised tq appear at a function of the township's choi e. This appearance, therefore, will be the f ilment of that pro- mise. The treasurer repo ed that assessment reviews of properties i the Meneset Trailer Park and at Goderich Airport had resulted in lowered assessment and a corresponding reduction in property taxes on the affected properties. Therefore, council approved tax write-offs in the total amount of $182,12. Building permits were issued to Richard Meier, Lot 14, Lake Road West Concession, for the conversion of a pit silo to a machine storage shed by the addition of frame wall and roof; to Eric Gosse, 15 Cree Road, Meneset Trailer Park (extension) for an 8 foot x 20 foot addition to his mobile trailer home; and to Fred Bridle, Site 77, Cherokee Rd., Meneset Trailer Park, for an 8 foot x 10 foot addition and the closing -w of a patio porch on his mobile trailer home.

The meeting adjourned to Tuesday, Oc- tober 2 at 8 p.m. Plowing Match winners A Seaforth area teenager, Paul Dodds of RR 1; Seaforth, won the teenager class of the 57th Huron County Plowing Match on September 15. The win brought with it the chance to compete in the scholarship class at the International Plowing match near Tevoitdale in Wellington County. Jeff McGavin of Walton, has also been selected by the Huron Plowmen's Associa- tion to compete in the scholarship class bas - ,,,ed on his performance last year but the in- ternational association cut the scholarship entries to one from each county this year. George Townsend, president of the Huron Plowmen's Association, told those attending the Huron match that reducing the scholar- ship is a "big mistake". "This is where we get the encouragement at the county level for young people to get in- volved. We have had up to as many as eight m this scholarship class. We have had our team picked from last year's competition to go to this year's match and now we have to tell them only one may go." The teen class competition at this year's match was used as the deciding competi- tion. Paul Dodds won out over Steven Adams of Brussels who came second and Jeff McGavin who placed third. Both Paul and Steven will compete at the International but not in the scholarship class. Mr. Townsend said the number of en- trants and spectators was up this year over last year despite the chilling rain and wind and rnud. He said there will be 11 or 12 from Huron competing at the International this year. .
