h: t. ,. PAGE 2--GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 37, 197 Champion expands service . Champion Road Machinery Sales Ltd., a subsidiary of Champion Road Machinery Ltd., of Goderich, exparfded its Toronto facilities recently giving; it about four times the work space it had in its previous location. The firm, which handles all sales and service of Champion Road Machinery in Ontario, required larger facilities due to an increased volume of business in the province. Maurice Jenkins, general manager of the sales com- pany, said Wednesday the firm is going "full guns" and has been extremely suc- cessful. He said the expansion was necessary to allow his firm to service Champion customers, in the province in the manner they are ac- customed. Jenkins explained that the sales division of the firm is entirely different from the manufacturing division. He OPC chairman at Goderich hearing Chairman of the Ontario Police Commission, Elmer Bell, was in Goderic,,h.last Wednesday to act as chair- man of a police commission hearing into whether the secretary and dispatcher for the Goderich police depar- tment should be accepted into the police association. Bell explained that the Goderich police commission is opposed to secretary Rosalene Barger becoming an association member because she is a civilian and not a member of the police force. A recommendation has been made by the Goderich police commission that the secretary's wages be negotiated for by the police association in 1978. She will, however, be negotiated under a separate contract rather than under the police association contract. In other business Bell said he favors the Huron County- wide police communications system, but says the decision will depend on the money available in the next provincial budget. Goderich, Clinton, Seaforth, Exeter and • Wingham have all agreed to apply for provincial funds to establish a central dispatch system for all five forces but Bell says he doesn't know how much grant money will be available to upgrade police communication systems in Ontario. The cost of establishing the system., including radios, monitors and radio.towers, is estimated at $70,000 with the provincial government being asked to pay 75 per cent and the five towns sharing the remaining $17,500. Bell estimated that it might be two years before he would be able to complete his plans to upgrade police com- munication systems in the province. He said he had no idea what priority the Huron County system would be given. It will be the task of the Ontario Police Commission to recommend where the central police system would be located. Both Goderich and Clinton have said they will consider providing the headquarters. Under the current police communications system in Huron County, each town's force operates its own dispatch during office hours and at night the calls are handled by telephone relay systems or answering ser- vices.
