County Council Name Manager of Clinton CFB; To Look For Possibilities (by Shirley Keller) Captain R. S. Cummings of CFB Clinton was engaged Friday by Huron County Council as Co- ordinator of the Base Develop- •meat Committee. Captain Cummings goes on the County payroll July 1, 1970, and his salary will be $10, 000 per annum In the interim, Captain Cum- mings has been appointed by Colonel W. Ryan, Clinton Base Commander, to act as Base Co- irdinator intil his retirement in June. Several council members pointed out during the discussion on the matter, that the county was actually receiving about six months of Captain Cummings time without having to pay a salary to him. Under the scheme, Captain Cummings will be available to those persons interested in using any of the facilities at the base for the purpose of establishing some kind of private industry or educational system. Members of county council learned that Captain Cunnnings has been the Base Technical Services Officer for the past five years and "Therefore has a wealth of knowledge of the work• ing of the' entire station". The position to be held by Captain Cummings is temporary in nature and will be subject to review in 1971 depending on development conditions at CFB Clinton. In addition, council approved the hiring of secretary staff to carry out the necessary office work so that "someone would be available at all times to answer the telephone enquiries or to meet delegations that might appear on the Station when Cap- tain Cummings is absent on other business. An office will be set up near the main gates in Building 84. The rent for this accomodation is to be "a nominal sum per year." Exeter Reeve Derry Boyle ask- ed council why members of the county development committee had not advertised the position. He was reminded that Captain Cummings knew a great deal about CFB Clinton and would be working for the first few months Meeting One Meeting one of the two 4-H groups, Zurich three and Zurich four, was held in the Township Hall, Wednesday, February 25, at 7:00 P.M. The meeting opened by reciting the 4-H pledge. Mrs. Firikbeiner talked about the'Food Guide for Health', and"Why We Eat Fruit." Mrs. Hogg explained some good work- ing methods. Towards the end of the meet- ing Debra Hogg demonstrated two ways to measure a cup of lard, and Mrs. Hogg showed us how to make grape sparkle; a tasty drink using grape juice and orange juice. At the end of the meeting we discussed some dif- ferent types of fruit. Meeting two was held last night in the Township Hall. GUARANTEED CERTIFICATES and DEBENTURES 834% 1 to 4 Years 5 Years CONTACT John R. Consitt 2364332 — Zurich under appointment from the military service. Reeve Boyle pointed out there was perhaps other employees at the base who had been there much longer than five years who could have bid for the job. Hensall Reeve Oliver Jaques asked whether there had been a change in the procedure for clos- ing out a military base. He recalled when the Centralia base was closed, all assets went throu- gh Crown Assets before any offer was made to the province. "It could take a few years before the county of Huron gets a chance at it, " stated Jaques. Former Warden James Hayter told council that Crown Assets representatives had promised full co-operation in this matter. "I think we've contacted the right people, " observed. Hayter.. "I don't know what else we can do." Reeve Roy Pattison concurred with Reeve Hayter. He said the Clinton base eras unique - per- haps the only one of its kind in Canada - and would therefore be closed down in a little different manner than normal. Clinton Reeve Harold Lobb expressed his cornminity's satisfaction at the interest the county was showing in the Clin- ton base closing. In other business, it was learn- ed that members of the county development committee will attend a meeting in Londesbore today (Thursday) to hear dis- cussion on the Wildlife and Recreation Area proposed for Hullett Township.
