Surplus
(continued from page 1)
deck on the Benmiller bridge.
I3e said the fine weather this
summer allowed work to pro-
ceed easily and without inter-
ruption, a distinct factor in the
accumulation of a $15, 000 to
$20, 000 surplus mentioned for
this year in the road department.
At Huronview where the es-
timated budget was $746, 466 for
1969, actual expenses until June
30 were $363, 070. 97.
Robert Lyons, chairman of the
committee of management of
Huronview got approval for his
committee's recommendation
that a Perdiem rate be set $216
per month and $7.10 per day
for any part of the month, re-
troactive to April 1969.
He also reported that Dr. C.F.
Doorly, Goderich is the new
home physician at Huronview.
Harvey Johnston, former
administrator at Huronview,
introduced Chester A. Archibald,
the new administrator who com-
menced his duties September 1.
Estimated budget in the health
unit was $227, 511 while actual
expenditures to June 30 of this
year totalled $102, 185.93.
Library expenses have totalled
$57, 589.64 to June 30, budget
estimates for the year are $145,
000.
The children's Aid Society is
operating within its budget too.
Actual costs have been $108, 567.
70 of a budget for $215, 366.
Clerk Berry spoke briefly on the
matter of interest rates which is
of great concern when one real-
izes the prime borrowing rate
at the present time is 8Z per cent
At the present time, the county
is paying interest on $1, 200, 000.
"The county does have a re-
serve for working capital in
amount of $50, 000, " explained
Berry. " This money is available
as ready cash rather than put-
ting the same sum into the sur-
plus account and then having to
borrow to return this money to
the bank account."
"I would strongly recommend
that in considering the budget
for 1970, " Berry continued,
every consideratioh be given
to increase the working capital
account in order to save on bor-
rowing and as a result save on
interest.'
Just rs a matter of interest,
Berry told council the average
cost per delegate to conventions
in 1969 was $165. 08.
"This does not seem ext-
ravagant, " he said.

Dashwood Tigers
Again Win Series
(by Ross Haugh)
The Dashwood Tigers moved
into the Ontario Baseball Ass-
ociation Intermediate "D"
Final Saturday afternoon with a
close 2-1 win over the Ivey
Maple Leafs.
The Tigers had won the series
two weeks earlier but an Ivey
protest of the second game was
upheld forcing the Saturday
game in Dashwood.
Dashwood now moves against
the Mattice Tigers in the
provincial final. The best -of
three series will be played in
Dashwood on Thanksgiving
weekend.
It is expected the first two
games will be played Saturday
and Sunday with the deciding
garne if necessary slated for
Monday afternoon. The weather
will probably decide if the Sat-
urday game is played in the
afternoon or under the newly
installed floodlighting system.
The Tigers scored both of their
runs Saturday in the fourth in-
ning to gain the victory. Stan
Lovie lined a single to left
field and Pete Ravelle followed
with a long drive that carried
over the right field fence.
The only other Dashwood hit
of the day was a single from
the bat of second sacher Bud
Desjardine in the second inning,
Bob Webb went the distance on
the Dashwood mound and limited
the visitors to four well scattered
hits. Ivey scored their run in the
top of the third.
Zurich Horse Show
Although the crowd at this
year's Horse Show held in con-
junction with the annual Fall

to be asked.

classes were Orval Bestard, Cecil
Crain, Charles Halliday, R.R.
Pinnegar, and Walter Clarke.
The open jumping class was
won by Miss Joan Elliott. Others
