HEAR OF TRAGEDY
(Wngham Advance -Times)
At six o'clock on Saturday ev-
ening, February 28, Mr. and Mrs.
Jack Pitcher, who operate a ser-
vice station on Highway 86 mid-
way to Listowel, were seated in a
restaurant in Daytona Beach, Fla.,
when their attention was attracted
by the cries of a newsboy on the
street outside.
They learned within moments
that the 3 -inch headline on the
paper he was selling read "Arena
Collapses, 8 Die" and the story
which followed told of the disaster
in Listowel which had taken place
at 10 o'clock that morning.

ABOUT OUR NEIGHBOURS
ONE TO REMEMBER
(Lucknow Sentinel)
The 1958-59 winter will be one
to remember with some twelve
feet of snow to date. But there
are others. It was on March 6tH,
1957 that a snowplow and engine
derailment in the Henderson cut,
north of town caused a three-
day tie-up before the line was
cleared, and of course, "old tim-
ers" dwell on 1904, when Luck -
now was without a train for 11
days and it was fourteen days be-
fore trains were rolling from
Palmerston through to Kincardine.
SEEKS WRIT OF CERTIORARI
(Goderich Signal -Star)
F. M. (Monty) Hall, former
town police chief, has asked the
Supreme Court to quash the find-
ings
indings of Goderich Police Commis-
sion, which fired him after a pub-
lic hearing last fall.
The ex -chief alleges "there was
a departure from natural justice"
in the hearing which resulted in
his dismissal.
His application for a writ of
certiorari to remove the decision
of the commission is slated tent-
atively to be heard at Osgoode
Hall in Toronto on March 17. But
it is doubtful if everything will be
in readiness by that time.
Fishing Through
Ice Becoming
Quite Profitable
Ice fishing on Lake Simcoe,
fourth largest of Ontario's inland
lakes, has increased tremendously
in the past ten years and the 800
fish huts in use in 1949 have grown
to about 4,400 this year, Ontario
Department of Lands and Forests
reports.
This growth has been watched
closely by the Department's biolo-
gists and conservation officers and
each winter an aerial survey is
made over the lake to count the
huts and note their distribution.
Aircraft also are used to check
anglers' catches in more isolated
sections of the lake.
On a sunny mid -winter Sunday,
it is estimated that some 8,000
anglers enjoy the sport, 90 percent
of them repeaters from previous
years. This undoubtedly contrib-
utes to the economy of neighbour-
ing towns and villages, officials
believe. More than half of the
huts are rented from local resi-
dents—the rental fee providing
the hut, fishing eqquipment, bait
and usually necessary transporta-
tion
ranspol totion to and from the mainland.
Catching fish depends not alone
on the fisherman's skill but also
on the movements of fish . about
the lake. J. M. Fraser, fish and
wildlife supervisor at Maple, Lake
Simcoe District headquarters for
the Department, says whitefish
constitute fifty percent of the
catch. Lake herring is reported
more plentiful than in previous
years and lake trout specialists
are experiencing good fishing in
the deeper waters.
Catches of more than 50 white-
fish per day are not uncommon
among the expert fishermen. Sur-
veys show that the average angler
takes a fish about every three
hours. Good fishing and good fel-
lowship in the fish hut colony are
making the sport more attractive
to increasing numbers each win-
ter—and they come from far and
near to participate.

DISCUSS FAIR
(Seaforth News)
Grants as pertaining to Class
"B" fairs were discussed fully at
a meeting of the Seaforth Agri-
cultural Society at the weekend.
An announcement is anticipated
daily that the Seaforth Fair has
been granted a Class B rating—
when this is received the Seaforth
Fair will have the distinction of

B Fair as well as the county's

Shows are to be held in conjunc-
tion: with this year's fair.
EXPLAINS DISASTER
(Exeter Times -Advocate)
How does a Western Ontariae
community like Listowel react to'
a tragic disaster such as the arena
cave-in which killed seven young
hockey players and recreation
director.
Kinsmen Governor Ken Mc-
Kenzie, who comes from the Perth.
county town, attempted to analyze
the feelings of his townspeople in
an interview following his official
visit to Exeter Kinsmen Club,
Thursday night.
"I think all of us had difficul-
ty realizing that this had actual-
ly happened to our town," he said.
"It seemed like one of those trag-
edies in far-off laces which you
read about in the papers or hear
over radio."
"Yet everyone pitched in to.
help. Hundreds rushed to the
arena to assist in the removal of '
debris."
