TREE TRIMMERS -Harley Gaunt. and Bernie Haines, high up in th� bucket of
the PUC 'cherry picker', begin removing a maple tree at the corner of John and
Carling Terrace. One man controls the bucket and handles the limbs, while the
other operates the chain saw. The limbs are dropped Into the truck waiting below.
The town mad to hire a tree removal firm,but found that With the co-operation of
the ,PUC It -could -the :job --itself at .a.-loweik cost. -
Puffing still permitted.
Reeves d.fecit Proposal to
ban smoking in chamber
Reeves and deputy, reeves
atlending Huron County
Council will continue .to be
allowed to puff on cigarettes, .
cigars and pipes during their
deliberations.
Ina determined effort to
clearthe air in'the Council
chambers, ' the executive
,committee introduced a
recommendation that
smoking be banned there as
of April 1. However the
recommendation was voted
down, 17 to 11.
The proposal sparked one
of the most impassioned de-
bates during last week's
meeting of the county coun-
cil.
The smokers were cham-
pioned by Cal Kreuter, the
cigarette -puffing reeve of
Brussels, who declared it's
up to him and nobody else to
decide whether he smokes.
and where.
If the majority outlaws
smoking in the council
chambers, it will have to be
prepared •to hold council
meetings in the men's room,
because that's where all the
smokers will be clustered, he
warned.
He also said you can
educate people not to smoke
hurt yon can't legislate it,
pointing out it didn't work
with liquor during Prohibi-
"If you don't want
smokers in here, then you go
to all l" townships at
election time and have therm'
elect non-smokers."
He was backed by Reeve
Bill Dale of Seaforth, a pipe
smoker, who seid he intends
to keep on smoking regard-
less where he is. "If you
don't want n ie to smoke in
here. I will leave ' the
chamber."
On the other side of the
coin, Reeve Paul Steckle of
Stanley Township pointed
out nobody's saying a _person
can't smoke, '`only that
within these four walls we
don't want you "
Some, members have
asked to have their seats
clanged because they are
bothered by smoke, he ex -
1
s•
"1 don't feel we are in-
fringing on your rights to ask
you to .smoke outside, but
you're definitely infringing
on our rights' by smoking in .
here.",
Tom Cunningham, reeve
of Hullett Township, con-
fessed he was "one of the
culprits who started this".
He has bronchitis and asth-
ma, he explained, and has
• spent • very uncomfortable
evenings following sessions
sandwiched between two
smokers.
•
Morris Reeve Bill Elston
suggested • a compromise,
proposing that smokers can
be seated in one corner of the
room and non-smokers in an-
other. He used to smoke and
knows how it feels to be de-
prived of a smoke, he said.
Grant Stirling, reeve of
Goderich Township, had the
last word: `a sat on county
council when cigars were 10
cents apiece, ,and these
people here today don't know
anything about smoke!" he
declared&
Low population
Continued from Front Page
maintains, pointing out that
with the town looking ahead
to possible annexation of
additional land the
population could grow within
a few years.
Cutting down poses a
special problem in that five
officers is the minimum
required to have a man on
the street around the clock,
he explained. Cutting back to
four would cost about four
hours of coverage, and he's..
not sure the business com-
munity 'rustic! t to have
f-.....w¢Au. w
its assets unguarded for that
long.
It's met jilt local people
you have to worry about, he
noted. Once word gets
around that policing has
been cut back, that com-
munity becomes a target for
thieves and vandals frorn
other towns and cities. l
He , has statistics which
indicate that after Seafdrth
cut back its force to four
officers, the number of oc-
currences of break and entry
and vandalism nearly
doubled.
The chief said he is hoping
the current controversy over
police .spending gilt blow
over, but he is not taking it
lightly. He is considering
asking a member of the
Ontario Police Commission
to meet with the local council
in an attempt to work out any
differences.
In the meantime, except
• • ••
for comments by Police
Committee Chairman Jim
Currie, there has been no
indication that council is
contemplating any reduction
in the police budget, which
for 1981 has been set at
$199,500, up about 10 per
cent.
Apart from a brief
reference by Councillor Dick
LeVan during an earlier
meeting, the matter has not
surfaced during a public
meeting of council, - and
according to reports it has
not Ebeeii seriously discussed
at meetings of the police
committee.
Thepolice currently are in
the second year of a two-year
contract, which comes up for
review this fall.
(Note: While towns
operate their own police
forces, villages and rural
municipalities are policed by
detachments of, the Ontario
Provincial Police, with the
cost covered by direct
provincial grants. As a result
they could not be included in
the comparison of policing
costs.)
Caffeine-aleolbol link?
Some scientific.- studies,
still. in the preliminary stag-
es, suggest a possible link
between heavy doses of
caffeine and a craving for
alcohol. One researcher says
as much as nine cups of cof-
fee a day may trigger a de-
sire for alcohol.
