school for officials of the game, held in Zurich recently. Shown here are two of the referees,
Harry Moir, left, of Hensall, and George Sweeney, right of Zurich, discussing details of the

sored jointly by the Western Ontario Athletic Association and the Ontario Minor Hockey Assoc-

Hensall Still Waits on Approval
Hensall council learned at its
meeting Monday night that as
yet it has not received a signed
agreement with Tuckersmith
council regarding the purchase
of the new fire engine, its main-
tenance and expense of replac-
ing equipment.
Fire committee chairman,
Harold Knight, urged the mem-
bers of council to contact the
supplies of the fire engine and
explain the situation. He feared
if the contract with the supplier
was not signed soon the original
cost price might rise.
Clerk Earl Campbell said he
had been informed that the con-
tract could only be signed by
the 1970 council but he agreed
it would be wise to contact the
supplier.
There was discussion regarding
the financing of the fire engine.
Council was in agreement that
it would be to their advantage
to finance it through the local
bank if possible rather than
through debentures.
The clerk informed the mem-
bers there was still some work to
complete the installation of
the gas furnace in the hall. The
council voted to pay $1, 000.
to the contractor W.. J. Cameron
and the balance when the work
was finished to their approval.
A letter from. the Ontario
Development Corporation in-
formed the council that their
municipality had been approved
eligible under rhe equalization
of the Industrial Opportunity
Program. This announcement
paves the wayfor Boise Cascade
to receive a orgivable loan to
enlarge General Coach Works
Limited.
The Recreation Parks and
Community Centre Board asked
if the council would consider
offering prizes for the snow
sculpture competition at the
Winter Carnival the last week in
January. It was agreed to do
this.

Happy New Year
The proceeds from the Carn-
ival will assist the Recreation
Board to replace the old arena
roof and make other repairs to
the building.
Councillor Rooseboom, speak-
ing on behalf of the Recreation
Board, said that the latter was.
considering putting off the com-
pletion of the new roof until
spring. Replacing it through
the winter activities is causing
some inconvenience.
He asked if the council would
be agreeable to paying Ed Fink,
the contractor, the money he
has already laid out for the steel.
The council agreed to look into
the matter.
Harold Knight, in his farewell
comments, said he was sorry
not to be elected a member of
the 1970 council but be believed
fully in the democratic process
and "the people have spoken."
Ile left some suggestions with
the council.
He felt that someone other
than a councillor should be chair-
man of the Industrial Board. He
said he had not had time to do
justice to this position because

of his duties..
He also suggested that recre-
ation board members be reim-
bursed for their work. He thought
this might create more interest
in the upkeep and welfare of
the arena and parks. Knight
stated he felt the "press has
been reasonably fair to me.. al-
though I think I have been mis-
quoted a few times. .
Ile said he enjoyed council
work and paid tribute to Clerk
Earl Campbell who had always
been most helpful to him.
Reeve Oliver Jaques thanked
councillor Knight for his work
on the council and said, "You
were always co-operative and
ready to do your duty.
You've been honest and spoken
your peace and let everyone
know where you stood."
Mr. Jaques also commended
Mr. Campbell for his fine work
as clerk. He told him, "we
hope you'll be back next year,
Earl.' He thanked all the
councillors and extended best
wishes to them and siad, "I
hope we get along next year
as well as we have this year.
Bantams Down
Strong Goderich
Crew by 6-3 Score
(by Doug Turkheinl)
The fact that Goderich is an
"A" team didn't seem to bother
the Zurich Bantams as they de-
feated them 6-3,
Pat Bedard led the Zurich
attack as he accounted for four
of the six goals. The others
were scored by Pete Hesse abd
Bill Bedard.
Goderich goal scores were
accounted for by Ken Arbour,
Pat Kelly and Jim McKue,
Zurich opened the scoring in
the first period as they scored
within two minutes, two goals.
Goderich was held off the score
sheet when each team came up
with two goals. Zurich scored
twice in the last stanza holding
Goderich to one.
There were five penalties cal-
led in the game with Zurich
drawing three and the visitors
two.
