Stephanie Levesque • The future employment of anti-nuclear demonstrator Joanne Young remains in limbo because a decision, by the Huron County Board of. Education has been tabled. At its regular November meeting, board chairman Eugene Frayne issued a press release following a lengthy session behind closed doors. During the closed session, Mrs. Young and the federation officer of Branch 45 of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation, Shirley Weary sat in a private office except for a 20 minute period when they were invited to attend the meeting. "At the present time, a decision with respect to Mrs. Young's future employment has been tabled. Mrs. Young has been given an opportunity to make a presentation and further information is being sent to the Minister of Education," stated Mr. Frayne. In July, the board suspended, without pay, Mrs. Young who is a math teacher at South - Huron District High School in Exeter. Mrs. Young told the media, followingthe board's announcement, that the withhoding of the decision of her future employment isn't consistent with a Oct. 15 letter she received from the board. She read from the letter which said the board would be ARE YOU ADVENTUROUS? Crave Success? Love Travel? YES? Join Us! Now Establishing our Cor- porate Management Staff in this area.

Engagements 46. In memoriam ASHTON In loving memory of a dear Father and Grand- father, Roy Ashton, who was called away November 6, 1982. We do not need a special day To bring you to our minds The days we do not think of you Are very hard to find. The heavenly gates were open Two years ago today With goodbyes left unspoken You gently slipped away You could not say goodbye to us • Perhaps it was just as well We never could have said goodbye To a Father and Grandfather we loved so well. Lovingly remembered, Gail, Elmer and Kevin. -45x ASHTON In memory of our deur dad, grandpa,` and great grandpa, Roy Ashton, who died two years ago, Nov. 6, 1982. Two years have passed and how we miss you Since God chose to call you home, But we know you're closest to us When we're feeling most alone. Somehow you appear before us, In our time of greatest"need, And like old times, we seek your counsel, In our every thought and deed. We see a rainbow touch your shoulder, , With a promise in its glow, And your love seems to surround us, Like it did so long ago. Sadly missed but always remembered by Bill, Marie and family. -45 MERIAM-RICHARD Mr. and Mrs. Marcel Richard wish to announce the forthcoming marriage of their daughter Marie Jacqueline Yvette to Leroy Alexander, son of Mr, and Mrs. Jack Merriam.

Mrs. Young said she received no explanation for the delay in the termination of ilk employment which she fully expecttl. "I don't knowwhy they wouldn't tell me," she said. Mrs. Young said she is in a financial position to disregard the "financial intimidation" of the board and several times called the board's action threatening with respect to the loss of her job. "We're at the mercy of these people," said Mrs. Young in reference to the trustees. Mrs. Weary said the local teachers' federation's official stand has been one of "assisting one of its members who is having difficulty with the board". When questioned about a possible ,breach on contract, Mrs. Young said "not in the circumstances". She recited a portion of the Education Act which talks about teaching the principles of Judeao-Christian morality. "One of the most important things I want to teach the students is Thou shalt not kill and thou shalt not allow taxes to be used for killing", she said. Mrs. Young said she would not compromise her principles. Suspended since the summer, Mrs. Young said she supported herself on the remainder of her teacher's pay and is now living on Unemployment Insurance. Chairman Frayne said the board "has had considerable discussion concerning the status of Mrs. Joanne Young": "Once a number of items have been clarified by the Ministry of Education, Mrs. Young's status can be determined," said Mr. Frayne. The board has been waiting since the summer for a ruling from Mini9ter of Education Bette Stephenson on Mrs. Young's employment. "The Huron County Board of Education does not wish to comment further, since this matter is to bediscussed in committee of the whole, it would be unfair to Mrs. Young's case," concluded Mr. Frayne. "I don't know where I stand. It's so difficult to understand," said Mrs. Young.

Thank you. Jock and Margaret Scotchmer.-45x Weeds are harder to control now and that situation is expected to worsen said Huron County weed inspector Joe Gibson in presenting his annual report at the November meeting of Huron County Coun- cil. "The face of farming has changed from mixed farming, whereby crops- and pastures, etc., were rotated, to one of con- tinuous cash cropping. We now have weeds that are far more difficult to control than we have had in the past and they are going to ARCHAMBAULT • Many thanks to Dr. Walker, and Dr. Neal, and the staff of 2 East for all their care during our stay in the hospital.

Ted and Alma. 45x get worse," said Mr. Gibson. The weed inspector said custom operators and renters are the biggest spreaders of these weeds. A request to add weeds to the Noxious List was turned down by the provincial ministry of agriculture and food, said Mr. Gibson. However, it was noted that the agriculture and property committee will be introducing a model weed control bylaw which in- dividual municipalities will have the option to adopt. Some of the weeds that are causing pro- blems are Velvet Leaf, Proso Millet, Jerusalem Artichoke, Collsfoot, Jimson Weed, Nightshades, Nutsedge, Bedstraw, Giant Ragweed, Resistant Lamb's Quarter and Pigweed. "Weeds we never h . rd of five years ago are commonplace today. A farmer will have to plan his crop rotations around what weeds he has to be able to control. The weeds are calling the play," said Mr. Gib- son. Will lease former weather station at airport THOMAS We would like to express our sincere thanks to Dr. Lambert, Dr. Walker, Dr. Neal, and especial- ly to Dr. James Rourke for their great skill and kindness in delivering our first baby, to the 2E nurses at AM&G, for their excellent care, and to all the other hospital staff, and our°friends and relatives who joined us in celebrating Meagan's arrival. Haydn and Marie Thomas. 45x The former weather station at the Goderich Municipal Airport has been vacant for some time but that may soon change. At its last regular meeting, Goderich town council agreed to enter into a lease agreement with Pat Patterson who wants to use the building for an avionics shop. The agreement calls for the rent to be set at $60 per month. Patterson appeared before the town's airport committee and asked for consideration in leasing the former weather station. Stating he is prepared to look after maintenance, pay utilities and taxes, Patterson told the committee he hopes to- launch an avionics business and would consider a higher rent after the first year of operation if the business prove to be viable. Council will enter into an agreement with Patterson when the building becomes available. Council also endorsed a recommendation from the airport committee to enter into an agreement with Edwards Service to maintain the fire alarm system at the airport terminal building at a cost of $182 for a 12 -month period. Vacancy rate high in Zurich home for seniors A 50 per cent vacancy rate at a seniors' complex in Zurich has some county coun- cillors concerned. Representatives of the Huron County -- Housing Authority presented their annual report at the November meeting of Huron County Council. Hay Township Deputy Reeve Tony Bedard first questioned housing manager Bill Tugwell on the vacancy at the housing authority's senior citizen units in Zurich. There are 20 units and 10 vacancies. Mr. Bedard noted this vacancy was ques- tioned last year and now it is worse. WI hears about education The Goderich Women's Institute met on Thursday, November 1 at MacKay Centre for Seniors. The President, Mrs. Helen Morley, presided and welcomed all. The meeting opened by singing the W.I. Ode and repeating the Mary Stewart Col- lect. The roll call, "name a world leader", was answered by 10 members. Three visitors were also present. A business ses- sion followed. The District President, Mrs. A. Jacklin of Wingham, will be invited to the March meeting. A donation of $20 will be made to the Legion. Mrs. Elizabeth Sitter, Convener of Educa- tion and Citizenship read two poems, "November" and a remembrance one. She introduced the speaker, Mrs. Olive Ken- nedy, a former teacher, who spoke on the changes in education and how the contribu- tions of many nationalities have changed Canada into a real multi -cultural nation.

Marie and Erica —45 Police News Bicycle t One of the largest problems the police are called upon to investigate is bicycle thefts. In Goderich, the number of bicycles reported stolen looks like this: 1974-54; 1975- 50; 1976-34; 1977-78; 1978-76; 1979-73; 1980- 165; 1981-136; 1982-157; 1983-122; and 1984 (to October 31)-73, for a total of 1,018 or an average of 92 each year. About 90 per cent of bicycles are eventually tecovered. Some are stripped, but a majority are taken from point 'A' to 'B' as a means of transportation; however it is still a 'theft'. The main areas where bicycle thefts occur are the high school, the elementary schools and in the area of the arcades. One way to prevent your bicycle being stolen is to LOCK IT when not in use. Make sure your bicycle serial number is known to you. AiL, bicycles must be licensed with the police department. If your bicycle does not have a serial number, then police will stamp oneon for you. Shoplifting is theft police warn Mrs. Sitter thanked her and presented her with a gift. Mrs. Mable Hawkins presided at the piano for singing the National Anthem, W.I. Grace and birthday greetings. The lunch commit- tee served tea and fruit breads. "There is a decrease everywhere," said Mr. Tugwell. "There's not a heck of a lot we can do." Hay Reeve Lionel Wilder suggested an elevator in the building would help, but Mr. Tugwell said that is expensive. He added that the provincial housing ministry won't fund that cost. It was noted that a seniors' complex in Brussels faced similar problems. Brussels Reeve Cal Krauter said local service clubs raised funds and installed an 'elevator and parking spaces were increased. Zurich Reeve Isadore LaPorte said the housing authority's facility faces competi- tion from an apartment unit down the street in a "beautiful setting" and rent is $80 a month less". Town&Country. REAL ESTATE phone 524--8331 O Did you know that persons found guilty of shoplifting will never be bondable, may be unable to obtain- a passport, and may find difficulty in getting a job because of a criminal record? The Christmas season is fast approaching and this is the busiest time of the year, for shoplifters. It has been estimated that shoplifting costs retail businesses in Canada about $1 million per day and someone must pay 'for this, and that someone is you, the consumer. How - by stores raising their prices in order to stay in business. Shoplifting is theft and it is worthwhile to bear in mind that the Criminal Code of Canada provides that anyone who is con- victed of theft, where the value does not ex- ceed $200.00, is guilty of an indictable of- fence and is liable to imprisonment for two years, or of an offence punishable on sum- mary conviction is liable to a fine of not more than $5110.00 or to imprisonment for six months or to both. If the value stolen ex- ceeds $200.00, the offender is guilty of an in- dictable offence and is liable to imprison- --_.. meet for ten years_,__._ -- SRC.... ,n� . -� ,....N ,.3. ,3 ,IZ17,,,.-. ..,, nmwerocrwamenngroutegomarammumnetwrocarwmtsm m„ ..n* Anwer„n 6 -Appraisals -Property Management -Investments 76 HAMILTON ST. 524-9097 FREE EVALUATIONS - NO OBLIGATIONS ASSUMABLE MORTGAGE COUNTRY LIVING - North of Kintail. 2.4 acres with 1'/2 storey, brick, 3 bedroom home.
