According' to Emerson Des- jardine, councilor heading the police committee he had no complaints of police work all summer. However, Monday night dur- ing the regular session of coun- cil, two operators of cabin areas did appear, and complained ex- plicitly about the noise and con- tinued bother throughout the season from one cottage imme- diately across the road from their establishment. Ralph Camp, London, and Norval Stewart, Gadshill, each described the parties and noise which they said had disturbed them and their tenants during the summer. `It's still roaring," said Mr. Camp. Councillors Desjardine and Grenier left the meeting to cheek the cottage described, and found no noise at all. "That's the way it has been all summer," said Mr. Camp. "We call the police and they find nothing wrong." Reeve Stewart Webb reported that he had checked the situ- ation himself personnaly and found nothing out of the ordinary. Police constables consulted following the meeting, reported that they had on occasion gone to the cottage, and had received co-operation in obtaining quiet. Apparently, however, the quiet did not last too long. Mr. Camp reported that on one occasion "the cottage was full --and we counted 28 people going in after that". Camp and Stewart claimed that action should be taken un- der the village by-law, which restricts noise. Gibbs Park Miss Adelaide Gibbs and her brother Harold Gibbs attended upon council with regard to proposed changes in the lanes which would give access to the Gibbs Park for residents there. Miss Gibbs commented briefly on the fact that people coming to the Bend for years, find it a let down to be confronted by extreme amount of noise in the early morning. She said she had been in the village only two or three times this summer. Reeve Webb assured Miss Gibbs and her brother that be- fore any action is taken with regard to the lanes in the Park, that local papers would carry details and announce any meet- ings to be held. Miss Gibbs noted that in the Exeter paper it had been re- ported that someone had been ordered out of the park. She felt it "certainly was not done by anybody in the fainily". She could not understand such an attitude being taken by any property holder in the Park either. "People have been at liberty to use the grounds there for years," she said. Councillor Orval Wassmann recounted the details of his en- counter with one of the younger Gibbs men in the Park last summer, when he and Mrs. Wassmann were asked not to use the lanes, since the park was "private". Reeve Webb asked who owned the lanes. Mr. Gibbs said, "We own the lanes in there". A petition signed by 35 resi- dents of the Gibbs Park has been received by the village council, which indicates that these residents are opposed to I H steaks chicken roast beef Limited We cater t tel Imperial Limited GRAND BEND We cater to Weddings and any type of Banquets Special Sunday dinners for fem- ilies and friends.

The matter is being investigated by the village so- licitor. Bell and Laughton, Ex- eter, Boat Traffic Dockmaster Al Dayman re- ported that he had put in a successful season with a total of 345 boats docked, and col- lection made -from all but a half dozen. He said there were 42 tied up at the municipal docks last weekend. Firearms By-law A by-law amendi,g the vil- lage by-law which bans the dis- charge of firearms within Grand Bend, was passed. The amend- ment provides that organiza- tions may apply for permission to hold organized shoots in the village. Post Office Word was received from the Department of Public Works that the building of a post of- fice in Grand Bend is "still un- der discussion". The Depart- ment states that they are un- decided whether to build or continue in rented premises. Last summer the Department had purchased land fronting on Highway 81, east of Highway 21, in such a position that chil- dren returning home from the public school, could call for the family's mail. The understand- ing was that a postal building would be built very soon. This year's estimates of the Federal Government show an .appropri- ation of $20,000 for the purpose of building. New Highway Council advised that about 550,00 in assessment was being lost owing to the expropriation by the Ontario Department of Highways in their project to straighten the westerly end of Highway 81 as it approaches Highway 21. Licence Paid Report was received that Mr. Odbert of the Wondergrove Roller Rink had paid the re- quired fee for the nickelodeon in the locker room at the rink. • BROWN NYLON FRIEZE 2 - Piece Chesterfield Suite Reg.
