Goderich lawyer D. J. Murphy represented the board of Huron County School Area No. 1, which covers the entire area involved in the dispute, while J. K. Hunter acted for the group of 25 petitioners from the Egmondville and Harpur- hey district. During the course of the hearings, arguments were heard from various officials of the school area board, along with several members of the town- ship council in Tuckersmith. Board chairman Vern Alder - dice argued that the people had voted in favor of the new school last December when they elec- ted a board to represent them, consisting •of men who favored the central school plan at Brucefield. The petitioners who opposed the new school suggested that the Egmondville-Harpurhey and northeast section of Tucker - smith be allowed to form a Stores in the villages of Hen- sall and Zurich will no longer remain open on Saturday nights, following a decision by mer- chants in both municipalities last week. In both cases the store owners have all agreed to remain open only on Friday night, all year around. In other years, the stores have remained closed on Satur- day nights during the winter months only, then stayed open both Friday and Saturday nights during the spring and summer months. District merchants cited the fact that 48-hour work weeks are now in effect, and it is practically impossible to obtain part-time experienced sales per- sonnel. Both Hensall and Zurich stores will remain open on Fri- day nights until 10 p.m.. The only other difference in hours between the two municipalities is that Hensall stores are closed all day Monday and opened all day Wednesday. In Zurich the stores are opened all day Mon- day, and then closed Wednesday afternoon for their half boll, day. The new store hours in both cases come into effect imme- diately, and merchants in both villages have advertised their decisions in this issue of the Citizens News, union school with •Seaforth.
