one of the caretakers, made the
discovery when he went to work
at 7.30. Police were notified and
Constable Stun Bates investi-
gated.

sent at both services. The pastor,
Rev. Murdock Morrison had

er." -During the evening service

What MS10101'es are neeesary
to be prepared for the unlikely
case of a nuclear bomb blast in
Ontario or -Michigan, "That 10
for you to decide," said T. Al
MacDonald, emergency measures
co-ordinator for Huron County at
8 gathering in the town hall Mcut-
day evening.
Huron County's part would lie
to provide food and shelter for
thousands of refugees who would
come unannounced along the
highways. Seaforth would be a
check point for those enterin,,
the county on No. 8 highway.
Fall -out would offer the g'cn`-
est hazard in the county; nuclear
bombs are too expensive to use
on any target in a rural area.
Fall -out is debris or dust car-
ried up by the blast which be-
comes radio active.
Air. MacDonald showed movies
of a preliminary evacuation of
the city of Denver, also of the
first atom bomb blast's destruc-
tion in Hiroshima and Nagasaki
in Japan.
Members of Seaforth council
and representatives front the
townships were present. Meyer

MacDonald.
