Huron . Football
Plans Annual
('Contributed by "Centre Forward") ter
The Huron Football League
reaches its 'final stage on Tues-
day. Nov. 2, when one of the most
important events of the year takes
dace in the Legion Hall at Bruer
eels. Owing to the early darkness,
;this event will take place under
.the lights, with the executive as
referees and linesmen.
This. year Winthrop stepped in
end took the Leo Stephenson tro-
Qahy. The cup has been in compe-
riition for 21 years, and in that
time has been won by all teams at
east once, except Ethel. It would
seem that the boys from Ethel are
,good losers, and play for love of
the game, as they come back ev-
ery year.
The final games this year did
nt draw the crowds as usual;
however, they. did not lack en-
ibust•as:m. Other games were plan-
ned. but Jupiter Pluves (rain to
you) stepped in. Two all-star
,games were played, with the
North being victorious over the
;South, both times. The InteJmedi-
ate series, saw a new entry, Lon-
timboro Football Cluib, come out on
top. Their competition with Wing -
bean was not as good as it should
have been, as Wingham lost en-
ough players to weaken their team;
!however, they deserve credit for
carrying on to the end, which does
not take away from the winners,
who are to be congratulated on
winning the Barry Marshall trophy,
Ile first time it was in circulation.
It would seem that the football
mill be replaced by the puck from
now on till spring. To my mind,
this is a good move, as the boys
will be kept together, which makes
for better friendship and friendly
competition, which is a goodly
snlleatone in any life.
The executive definitely decided
aro sponsor a hockey' league, and
from this angle alone it glveie
minor° players a chance to play. The
Homebrews will have a chance to
aitisplay their Wares. Six teams
ths'ao expreseabd their desire to en -
League
Banquet
and --a few more will be wel-
come.
So, whether you play football or
hockey, or both, roll up to the din-
ner on the 2nd of November, and
show your executive you appreci-
ate what is being done for you.
We hope to have the English
film, "The Great Game," which will
be shown after the dinner. Some
notables of the Canadian football
world will be present; also some of
the leading citizens of Huron Coun-
ty. This will be the finale of foot-
ball for this year and the inaugura-
tion of hockey for the league.
If you have had your fill of foot-
ball for '54, come and get your fill
of turkey, and congratulate the
winnere of our two trophies.
Find Lost Boy
After Long Search -
A five-hour search by more than
150 people in Baya®eld Tuesday
night located two-year-old George
Montgomery, son of Cpl. and Mrs.
G. E. Montgomery. Bayfield. He
had been missing since shortly af-
ter 6 p.m. He was found sleeping
on the beach a quarter of a mile
from home behind the cottage of
Magistrate Fred McAlister, Q:C.,
of London.
The child was in the habit of
going out to the road about five
o'clock to meet his father, who is
stationed at Clinton Air Force Sta-
tion-.
tation.
Ken Brandon and George Bell,
both ;of Bayfield, and Squadron
Leader Ray Henderson, of Clin-
ton, who were part of the posse
of 160 men, who had been search-
ing the north side of the river and
lake since the child was reported
missing, found him asleep and took
him home.

official 'figures, there were 1,053,-
700 horses on Canadian farms.

Reuben Buuck
Named President
McKillop F of A
Members of the McKillop Fed-
eration of Agriculture, meeting in
Northside United Church Thursday
evening, named Reuben Buuck
president. He succeeds Gordon
Scott, who completed a two-year
term.
Gilbert Smith was elected vice-
president. Eleven directors will be
named at the various school sec-
tions' annual meetings. Alvin
Dodds. secretary -treasurer for the
past several years, in presenting
the group's financial position, stat-
ed the year's receipts as $2,087,
with expenses totalling $99.66. He
stated that the federation had paid
a grant of $15 to the McKillop
4-1I Grain Club which had 21 mem-
bers, all completing their project
at the Achievement Day at. the
Seaforth Fall Fair.
Gordon Greig, of Bluevale, Huron
county fieldman, reported that the
county federation social evening
would be held in Zurich Monday
evening and that its annual meet-
ing would be held in Londesboro.
In speaking briefly, G. W. Mont-
gomery, agricultural representative
for Huron, ,urged the township to
push the calfhood vaccination pro-
gram or'soon McKillop will be an
isolated township. A canvass had
previously been taken but failed
due to the lack of sufficient signa-
tures. He also made reference to
the strong junior farmer groups in
this area.
In reporting for the 4-H Club
program in the area, Harold Bak-
er, associate agricultural repres-
entative, said there were 61 4-11
Club members in the Seaforth area.
most. of these • living in McKillop
Township, and all but two of the
6- completing their projects. He
also brought it to the attention of
the meeting that all three "trip"
awards for Huron County went to
young people of McKillop, with
Catherine Campbell and Lavern
Godkin being awarded the Eastern
Ontario trip for 4-I Club work, and
to Earl McSpadden, for work in
the junior farmer organization. He
was winner of this year's new
award—a trip to New York. Wash-
ington and Ottawa.
County Federation President,
Wilfred Shortreed, also a resident
of MoKillop. asked members to
have confidence•in their senior of-
ficers of the organization; they
were placed there by a democratic
vote. Legislation as it affects the
farmer. is usually brought about
from a small beginning—perhaps
an idea of one person brought for-
ward at a farm forum meeting,
thence to the township organiza-
tion, which is in turn sent in as a
resolution. All this takes time. •pos-
sibly from two to three.years tie -
fore it becomes a government pol-
icy.. The federation is you, he con-
cluded; bring out your ideas to be
discussed. Apparently there are
only two active farm forums in
the township and an effort is be-
ing put forward to start at least
two new- forums.
In his chairman's address, Gor-
don Scott stated that although a
move to establish calfhood vac-
cination in- the township lad fail-
ed, enothar attempt would be
made, and, it is believed, will be
successful this time. He reported
that a good response had been
ni'ade to the Cancer Research ap-
peal and stated that the move
afoot to remove the months of May
and September from the Daylight
Saving program, originated in Mc-
Killop township,

entative for the wheat. marketing
scheme, speaking briefly, stated
that wheat is the oldest cash crop
in our country. Speaking in sup-
port of the Farm Products Mark-
eting Act, he asked aheat growers
to sign the petitions being eirculat
ed. which will go to the Minister
of Agriculture.
A film on safe driving,was shown
to conclude the meeting.
Special speaker was David T.
Savage, Listowel, who held the
attention of his listeners as he
dealt, with "courage" letter by tet-
ter: "C" for confidence in our-
selves, our people, our country and
our God. We have lost faith, he
said, during 'these strenuous times.
Boost your organization, your
lovely town, and your country.
"0" for orderliness and decency.
Obey the laws of our land and set
better examples for your children
as a remedy against juvenile de-
linquency. "U" for your devotion
to duty. If you are devoted to
your job it ceases to be monoton-
ous, he said. "R" for religion, the
keystone of the arch. Have a
faith, he urged, and stick to it.
"A" is for aspiration or vision.
Time has changed things, he claim-
ed, referring to the speed at which
we can travel today' --'the world is
more tied in today when we think
of the short time in which distant
places can be reached by plebe.

Meeting Recommends Council
Establish Recreational Committee
Called by the Seaforth Athletic
Association to discuss the benefits
of the appointment of a recreation
director in Seaforth, a public meet-
ing on Tuesday evening directed
the Council to appoint a recrea-
tional committee.
The motion, proposed by J. R.
Spittal and Frank Kling, was un-
animously adopted. It read: "That
this meeting direct the Council of
the Town of Seaforth to appoint a
recreational committee."
Mayor E. A. McMaster, who was
chairman of the meeting, indicated
the resolution would come before
council at an early date. He sug-
gested the possibility of a special
meeting being called to consider it.
Secretary of the meeting was Jas.
A. Murray-.
In opening the meeting, Mayor
McMaster pointed out that with
the exception of hockey, sports had
been dormant in Seaforth for sev-
eral years. He felt that the em-
ployment of a full-time director,
who planned sports throughout the
year, would be of assistance. He
pointed out that sports are not ev-
erything, but at the same time
must be encouraged. In selecting
a recreational director, certain
characteristics must be kept in
mind, he said. He should be well
liked, clean living and held in high
esteem in town.
R. E. Secord. district representa-
tive of the Community Program
Bra.nah of the Department of Edu-
Selected as the best driver in the
district at the Lions Club car
rondeo, •held at the Lions Park last
month, Grant Chesney was a guest
of the Lions at their meeting Mon-
day night and was presented with
The Huron Expositor trophy, em-
blematic of the championship. The
presentation was made by J. Scott
Cluff, chairman of the roadeo com-
mittee.
Joint chairmen of the meeting
were C. A. Barber and W. J. Dun-
can. The club heardreports of its
fall paper drive by M. E. Clarke,
and of the progress of the Stout
program whieh the club Sponsors,
by J. R. Spittal. There are now
92 boys engaged in Scout and •Cub
work.
Mr. Duncan, chairman of the
Lions Education Committee, urged
members to acquire a knowledge
of the responsibilities involved in
committee membership. He told of
the necessity of there being co-
operation between members. It
was easy to criticize, he said, but
what was required was an ability
to look at the -other fellow's view-
points.
Describing a 2,200 mile motor
trip he and J. W. Modeland had
recently enjoyed, Mr. Barber told
his listeners of interesting sites
which they had visited. They had
been particularly interested in
Corning, Scranton, Gettysberg,
and Washington. Appreciation of
the talk was expressed by Lien
President A. W. Stilery.
catio4i of Ontario, was present to
tell the meeting what was invov-
ed in a recreational program.
A municipal recreational com-
mittee, he said, was available to
any municipality, and was estab-
lished by a by-law of the munici-
pality It must direct its activities
to all ages. alt interests, and to a
near -round program.
The purpose of a recreational
committee should be threefold, Mr.
Secord said. The committee pro-
vides co-ordivatton, assists in lead-
ership
eadership training, in budget needs,
and in providing facilities. It pro-
vides organizational help.
Secondly-. the committee, through
co-operation. prevents overlapping
of activities. By this means a to•
tal development of the program is
possible.
And. lastly. it should make it
possible that all citizens from pre-
school to senior—over 60—groups
have available to them a social
outlet. The program must not be
limited to one group or one interest.
Mr. Secord suggested as ex-
amples of the activities for which
the committee. could be responsible
would include Saturday morning
story hour. minor hockey, ballet,
self-improvement classes, fancily
recreation program, music and
drama. The department assists in
providing lea'tership training cours-
es, since it is realized qualified
staff cannot always be found in a
community.
Lions Will Play Host
To District Children
On Hallowe'en Occasion
Continuing a .custom of many
year's standing, members of the
Seaforth Lions Club will act as
hos•te• to district children at Hal-
lowe'en. This year the big party
takes place at the Seaforth Arena
on Friday evening, starting sharp
at 7 o'clock.
Each child entering the arena
will receive a hag of Hallowe'en
treats, and thefirst number on the
program will be the Mutt Show.
Here,. Seaforth and district dogs
of all shapes. sizes and back-
grounds, will compete for a varie-
ty of prizes.
When the Mutt show is over,
the competitions for the boys and
girls get under way. The long .list
of prizes ensures that all outstand-
ing copipetitors will receive a re-
ward. The program includes rac-
es and novelty events, as well as
prizes for best costumes.
A feature of the evening is the
draw for nine outstanding prizes,
valued at $300. Tickets iic the draw

The Hallowe'en frolic will wind
up with a gala dance in the Com-
munity Centre,
In charge of the Hallowe'en frol-
ic is a committee headed by R. S
McKercher. and including Ross
Hamilton. Scott Cluff and Dr. J.
McCabe. Sub -committees include:
draw. John Longstaff, H. Traviss
and C. Rowcliffe; dance: 'H. 0.

events: R. McFadden, Dr. J. 0.
Turnbull, W. Ball, H. Jackson and
J. A. Baldwin; candy: C. E. Smith.
John Beattie. C. A. Barber and W.
J. Duncan.
Substaptial assistance by way of
grants is made available to munici-
palities undertaking the program,
Mr. Secord said. These annual
grants are: one-third of the salary
paid a recreational director to a
maximum of $1,500; one-third of
the salary paid to the seclretary'of
the director; one-third of the sal -
stiles paid instructors, supervisors
and coacheee, to a total maximum
of $1,600, With a maximum of $500 -
per person; one-fifth of the amount
paid as operating costs of, recrea-
tional program, such as rent, etc.,
to a maximum of $600; dollar for
each dollar spent on a municipal
museum.
The success of any recreational
program depends not en the grants
received, but on the free offers of
help. Mr. Secord warned the meet-
ing not to think of spending money
just because a grant is being re-
ceived.
At the moment in his district
there are 29 programs under way,
Mr. Secord said. Of these, 25 are
operating satisfactorily. A par-
ticularly successful program is
under way in Exeter. The district
includes Huron, Perth, Grey and
Bruce.
Discussing requirements of a re-
creational director, Mr. Secord said
anyone could be recommended to
the Department who had received
the approval of the municipality.
Final decision rested with the
Minister. The recreational direc-
tor, who may also act as arena extra
manager, is required to take a
three-year course extramurally.
He would not be eligible for re-
appointment if after three years
he had failed to complete the
course,
Insofar as cost of operation of
the program is concerned, Mr,.Se-
cord said usually this was divided
three ways—one-third by the town,
one-third by arena, and one-third
by the Department. There was a
possibility a committee, if estab-
lished immediately,• could qualify
for some grant this year. All ex-
pendituresmust be certified by the
municipal auditors. Salary of re-
creational directors ranged from
$3,800
Mr. Seup,cord answered many ques-
tions dealing with various phases
of the program, and the matter
was thoroughly discussed prior to
the resolution being placed before
1 the meeting.
