COIVIMU NEW6� Riddell will lead Liberals again BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE No election had been called yet the Liberals and Progressive Conservatives in Huron -Middlesex are already challenging one another. Both MPP Jack Riddell of Huron - Middlesex and MPP Sean Conway of Ren- frew North took verbal swipes at the PC's in res a nse to earlier comments. P Conway, the provincial Liberal op- position's deputy house leader, was the guest speaker at the nomination meeting in Exeter, Mr. Riddell was acclaimed as the Liberal candidate. Both speeches referred to comments made the previous week at the PC nomina- tion meeting in the same location - South Huron District High School in Exeter. In one remark, MPP Riddell said a PC lawyer who had criticized the Huron - Middlesex Liberals has sent clients to his office for help. The opposition's deputy -house leader said Huron -Middlesex PC's "caboose" is "at- tached to the provincial Tory gravy train". Mr. Conway poked fun at many of the pro- vincial cabinet ministers and referred to the government back benchers as a "collection of pussycats". Carrying on the cat theme, MPP Conway said Premier Bill Davis is like a cat laying in a bay window - it only needs to be turned over every once in a while and tickled. Mr. Riddell spoke on his record as a member of provincial parliament. He noted his efforts in the area of school bus safety and the occupational health and safety act. The MPP took exception to comments made by the local PC's that indicated his vote majority has increasingly declined since first elected in 1973. Mr. Riddell said his majority increased in 1•.

Kim McLean of Exeter, the treasurer of the Huron -Middlesex Liberal Riding Association said money is needed to run the Riddell campaign. "The Tories have a war chest full of money," said Mr. McLean noting the local Liberals would need about $25,000 for an ef- fective campaign. $2.1 million needed for renovations county council learns FROM GARB & GEAR YOU WILL... fall in love with our collection of warm & cozy SW E AT F RS AND D VESTS for Guys and Gals.

BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE Renovations of $2.1 million for the Heron County Pioneer Museum have been recom- mended to Huron County Council by Museums Programmes Collaborative, a museum consulting firm from Toronto. County council heard the proposal as presented by architect Christopher Borgal of Blyth and Bruce County museum curator Claus Breede of Southampton at its October session. The collaborative was commissioned earlier this year to study the location of the museum and its operating and manage- ment policies and to project future direc- tions. County council made no decision at its recent session regarding the museum. It is - expected that the report will be referred to its agriculture and property committee at a special meeting on Oct. 11. Chairman of that committee, Bayfield Reeve Dave Johnston, said his committee would have to know the feelings of county council members regarding the future of the museum. He noted the $2.1 million figure is in 1984 dollars. The reeve roughly calculated that at $500,000 a year over four years, the pro- ject would cost Goderich $55,000 a year and Exeter $26,000. These estimates were bas- ed on 45 per cent of the total cost being covered by grants. Exeter Reeve Bill Mickle said a breakdown of costs per municipality should be prepared by the agriculture and property committee and presented to the respective municipalities. He added that residents should know the mill increase. The report does not recommend either moving the museum or completely rebuilding it. "We recommend that the Huron County Pioneer Museum proceed with option three - the phased implementation of a plan including the restoration of the Cen- tral School building, the replacement of the additions to the school, the addition of a service wing, renovation of the workshop building and the conservation of the log cabin," states the report. Besides changes in the physical building, the report suggests a reorganiza- tion of the staff and improvements to the program. The phased -in renovations start with the construction of a storage area at the back of the existing area. The lack of storage space is one of the major failings of the current 42,000 square foot facility. Constructing the storage area first, said Mr. Borgal, will allow a portion of the displays to be stored while other areas are under construction. Also, once the building is completed, the artifacts could be rotated between storage and display. Environmental control was another ma- jor concern noted in the report. Mr. Breede commented that whatever the weather is like outside, it's practically the same in the museum. Hay Deputy Reeve Tony Bedard wanted to know how many people had attended the two public meetings held in the summer. He was told there was a total of about 160. Mr. Bedard wanted to know where the peo- ple are who are interested in the museum. A large crowd anticipated at the county council session never materialized. The spectator section was filled with represen- tatives from two municipal councils, the ministry of correctional services, members of the committee which prepared the terms of reference for the collaborative and a handful of individuals.
