High winds lashed across the area and poor visibility accounted for the driving hazard. There wasn't enough actual snow fall to cause much of a worry, ,but, as is the usual case in this district, the heavy wind proved to be the vil- lain. School buses returned from the High School at Clinton at approx- imately 2 p.m, last Thursday, and on Friday morning returned: to 131yth immediately after having arrived at the school. Saturday saw a clearing trend but condi- tions worsened on Sunday and school. buses were forced to re. main home again on Monday, The skies cleared on Tuesday and the countryside was again back to normal, According to the banks on the main street of Blyth, the actual snowfall this year has not been overabundant. Snow has not been drawn from the street as yet this winter and the banks are still well. within proportion. It looks 'like a money -saving winter for the 'town fathers and perhaps we will see a little more street work activity this summer than usual Or, better still, a reduction on that 10 mill increase of last year. In any event, if there is a surplus in the snow removal budget, we know it will be used in the best Interests 'of all ratepayers, Ice Fund Tickets Are Still Available If you have not as yet purchas- ed a ticket on the suit draw and 'are interested in helping the arti- ficial ice fund In Blyth, you may make purchases at the Arcade Store, Cronin's Hardware or the Myth Standard office, Sales to date have been fairly good and It Is hoped that everyone in'the comnnunity; will offer theirsup- port.

Misses Shirley' and Audrey Snell, of London, and Mr. Jim Tirnpany, of Aylmer, visited ov- er the weekend with Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Snell and family. Audrey is remaining at home for two weeks. Lions Ice Carnival This Friday Night A good time is guaranteed for all at the arena this Friday even- ing when the Blyth Lions Club will again hold their ice carnival for the youngsters of the district. A total of $72,00 in prize mon- ey will be awarded for the various events, and on top of this, a great many thrills for the kids. A com- plete list of prize money and events appears in an advertise- ment in this issue. For several years now the Lions have sponsored the ice carnival, mainly for the enjoyment and entertainment of the children in our area. This is not a money- making venture and is far from what could be termed a profitable undertaking. A great deal of money is spent for, prizes and advertising etc, It is not infre- quent for this expenditure to a- mount to more than is taken in gate receipts, You can offer your support by attending, and by so doing help out with the financial burden. Saturday Night Bingos Have Been Cancelled The regular Saturday night Lions Club Bingos have been can- celled until the fall season. Main cause of the cancellation has been the very poor attendance since the games commenced again after the new year. The Lions offer $145.00 in prize money each week, and obviously, have to have a very good crowd to break even, let alone make a profit. At last Saturday's bingo only thirty persons attended and the Club were left standing red- faced and empty handed to the tune of $68,00. They immediately announced the cancellation. of future bingos until next 'fall, Many communities in the imme- diate vicinity operate bingos every week of the year, but apparently the months of October, November and December are the only pop- ular months in Blyth, Marching Mothers W ell Received 'By Blyth Residents Seventeen Marching Mothers collected a total of $230,00 in Blyth on Monday of this week. Tlie canvass was made in conjunc- tion with the March of Dimes and all money received will be turned over to that organization to be used for rehabilitation work among handicapped persons. Mrs, Ann Sundercock, chairman of the canvass committee,' told the Standard she was . extremely happy with the results and wish- ed to extend sincere thanks to all residents for their generosity. Volume 78 - No, 37 Single Copies Six Cents Hockey Game Marred By Player's Death The death of a Monkton hockey player threw gloom over the en- tire area on Tuesday night, The Blyth Legion intermediates were playing in Monkton when the tragic event occurred. It was during the action in the first period of play when Don Ronnenberg, 29 year-old Monk - ton hockey player and father of three small children, slumped to the ice, stricken with a heart at- tack. Don was just leaving the Monkton player's bench to enter in the game when the attack oc- curred, A doctor was called to the arena and the victim was re- moved to Listowel hospital where he died later. Play continued, until the middle of the second period. At this time word reached the arena of the seriousness of the illness and the game was immediately dis- continued. Blyth was leading by a 4 to 1 score. The sympathy of the hockey fans in this district is extended to the Ronnenberg family. School Reunion Gaining Interest Interest and enthusiasm is growing in the 1966 Blyth Schooi Reunion, July 30 and 31st and Civic Holiday, August 1st. A meeting was held last Saturday afternoon in the senior room of the school, chaired by vice-presi- dent Jack Taylor. It had been suggested at a previous meeting that the Blyth Lions Club be approached to as- sist the 'program 'committee which Chas previously been appointed by the reunion committee. Mr. Charles Shaw, representing the Lions Club, was present and re- ported to the meeting that the Lions desired information as to what was required .of them. He was told the reunion committee would like the Lions to appoint a chairman and at least three of their members to assist the program committee that has been appointed by the reunion com- mittee. This committee would then be expected to carry out a program of entertainment for the three days of the reunion. Several of the various commit- tees have held meetings and have set their estimated budgets. These include the parade com- mittee, sport and registration committees, Their estimates have been presented to finance chalr- man George Powell, It was suggested that the var- ious committees meet jointly to co-ordinate their programs before the next meeting which will be held in two weeks, February 12th at 2:30 p.m, in the senior room of the school. If your are interested enough to lend your support you will be more than welcome at this meet. ing.

The article was entitled "What Would We Do Without It," and we take the liberty of publishing it in The Standard in its entirity. At the same time, we hope that the comments of an edior who has seen the tremendous advant- ages artificial Ice offers a com- munity will make local residents more receptive to our canvassers, and also give those connected with the ice campaign the en- couragement to get off their be- hinds and give out with a better effort than has been witnessed here in recent weeks. If they do, we feel sure the arena will be adorned with artificial ice come next winter. The Lueknow editor's remarks read as follows: We were interested in the fol• lowing comment in the Blyth Standard last week. Blyth is pre- sently in. the process of raising money for the purpose of instal- ling artificial ice in their arena. 'Phe article read in part, "well, after the second frustrating year in a row, ice is finally available in the Blyth arena and the build- ing will be a bee hive of activity from now . until ,spring, providing the cold weather stays with us, Ice was available at the start of the Christmas holidays, but the mild weather completely destroy- ed estroyeel it. It wasn't until this week- end that weather was sufficiently cold to make it again." These remarks by the Blyth ed- itor made us realize the fortun- ate position that we in Lucknow and vicinity are in with artificial ice installed and In use every day of the winter. The youth of Luck - now and district, in a very few years, will not even recall the years of natural ice when the scheduling of sporting events de- pended entirely on how cold it was, or how much water could be dragged off the ice by game time, To use an oft used phrase, the "profits of doom" must certainly by now realize that Lucknow needed artificial ice badly. The arena is one of the most valuable assets the community has, and the pleasure and fellowship of the young particularly, who use the building continuously, cannot be measurer in. $ and cents. Blyth, as did Lucknow, will have those who will fight the art- ificial ice installation to the last, but we sincerely hope that the village has enough civic minded people to see the project.through. Small communities are sometim- es deprived of many things. There is no need to be deprived of an arena that will operate on a reg- ulair schedule and in an orderly fashion, such as the one in. -the Sepoy Town, - - ''uNIiIIIIINIIIIilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllilllllUll�lill!!I�N!NI!!IIIIIIIIN►II!NIIIIII!!!!INIIIIIINIII!II!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!II!III!illl!!INIIIIIII!IIII►NN!NI!II!!I!VIII!!81lIIN!(IIIIIIIIIIINI!IIIIIINIIIII!I!lii�''' Intermediates Trounce Gaunt Moving Up In Harriston 10 to 2 Parliament The Blyth Legion intermediate hockey team have started to hit their stride and the past week the boys have showed a much im- proved brand of hockey. - Last Friday night in the local arena the Blyth team handed Harrigan' a 10 to 2 shellacking. Blyth led 2 to 1 at the end of the first period, 4-2 at the end of the second. They came out flying in the third stanza' and notched six unanswered counters. Blyth goal scorers included: Keith Allen with two goals and two assists; John Lawrie, two goals and one assist; Doug Mc- Dougall, two goals; Grant Elliott, one goal and three assists; Terry Madill, one goal and two assists; Don.

W. of the Blyth United Church will meet on February 8 at 2 p.m, in the church parlor, Two Members of the Liberal Caucus will get a better view ,of proceedings in the Legislature this year. Liberal Leader Andrew Thomp- son has moved Dick Taylor (Te- n>iiskamling) and Murray Gaunt (Huron Bruce) from the third to the second row in the House. Mr. Thompson said the move was made in recognition of the Members' duties and responsibil- ities in the party. Mr. Taylor, the party's econo- mics and development and min- ing critics, was recently, made Provincial Campaign Chairman. Mr, Gaunt is carrying on his im- portant role as agriculture critic in the present session. The Legislature has three rows for Members — and senior mem- bers of Caucus usually sit in the first two rows. 'The vacancies in the Liberal's second row came as a result of the deaths of Leo Troy (Nipis- sing) and J. M. Gould (Bracon- dale). Liberals George Ben and Rich- ard Smith won the Nipissing and Bracondale by-elections this sum- mer. Mr, Taylor and Mr, Gaunt have taken on important responsibilit- les," said Mr, Thompson, "I have full confidence they will carry them out well," ACCEPTS RESEARCH POSITION Dr, John William MacDougall recently returned from England where he completed two years of Upper Atmospheric Research at Slough on a Post Doctorate Fel• lowship, began work on February 1st at the Reasearch Institute of McGill University, Montreal, and will take up residence in that city, • PAGE TWO A RED -EYED TEACHER Ever been on shift work? Most nurses have. Many indus- trial workers have, .Farmers, ex- ecutives, merchants, office work- ers and until recently, teach- ers — have not had that delight- ful experience. First time I ran into it was on my first job, when 1 was 17 — back in the middle ages, some- times known as the Dirty Thir- ties. I have been a stalwart champion of the working man ever since. It was on a steamboat on the Great Lakes. Seven days a week. For a dollar a day. I worked the graveyard shift, Except that in those days it was a shift and a half, from mid. night to noon. And it seemed to be rolling a little every mid- night, Just enough to make you queasy. Sick at heart, sick at stomach, we groggily made our way to the galley, about 11.30 p,m,, for "breakfast." The night cook was a jolly Or- iental gentleman called Sing. He couldn't sing. And he couldn't cook, either. But his heart was in the right place. He knew we needed sustenance for the 12 hours ahead. Chuckling merrily, he'd pile our plates with greasy eggs, greasy ham, greasy fried pota- toes, Sometimes, for a change, there'd be greasy sausages and bread fried in grease. Even a 17 -year-old stomach, the human organ that most closely resembles a cement mix- er, couldn't take it. We used to push the greasy gob around the plate, and settle for some greasy coffee. But the clincher, the thing that. really made our .stomachs heave, that made us rush from the gallery to our jobs of clean- ing out' the lavatories, was the dessert, Triumphantly, Sing would sing out, "You like nice Boston Cream Pie? I got." Now, as you 'probably know, Boston Cream Pie is a rich, nauseous concoc- tion of custard topped with cream. Almost 30 years later, 1 still gag when 1 see it on a THE BL,YTH STANDARD SUGAR and SPICB By Bill Smiley menu. , As you may have gathered, I didn't like shift work then. And it hasn't improved much during the intervening years. This year, at our school, we're on a double shift. A combination of post-war baby boom and bur- eaucratic red tape have produc- ed a situation in which the popu- lations of two entire schools, some 2,000 students, are sharing a building intended for half that number, The school board had two al- ternatives.' They could have each student hold another student on lima or her knee all day, or they could run two shifts. They favored the former, be- cause it would save on teachers, lighting and hooks. But some parents were pretty annoyed at the idea of their 88 -pound daugh- ters holding a 200 -pound foot - hall player in their laps all' day, So the school board fearlessly compromised, and voted for the shift system. And that's why your faithful reporter lurches out of bed at 6,15, wildly groping for the alarm clock, has a coffee break, if there is one, at 9 a.m., and eats lunch about 10,30 in the morning. In theory, it's wonderful. Teachers have all afternoon to sleep, golf, curl or hunt, and the evening to prepare lessons. Good for the students, too, They have their homework all done by dinner time, and can watch TV or wash their hair, or go to the poolroom. All we have to do is get to hcd a couple of hours earlier than in the good old days. In practice, it's horrible, WIves persecute -'husbands in the after- noon with shopping, scrubbing, repairing, nagging. If you sleep in the afternoon, you lie stark, staring, insomniacal, at night. If you work or • play, you fall asleep in the middle of din- ner, baked potato half chewed. Nobody goes to bed any ear- lier than they ever did. And what we wind up with is a pe- dantry 01 red -eyed teacher's, frayed at the edges, facing a gaggle of yawning teenagers, some of whom were up at 5 a.m. to catch the school bus, every morning at 7.45. iiligiWuthlo lliull III oili111111imiiimiu11111111111111V 11111V411111111111111111U11WIIIIIIIIIIiII1111111111111111111111111VIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII1111umuIWIIlIuIu halt mag Vate (L1urcIz THE UNITED CHURCH OF CANADA Blyth, Ontario, Rev, W. 0.

There is evidence of this every day on every TV station. It was obvious that CKCO-TV in Kitchener tele- cast a special, "Aladdin and hIis Magic Lamp," to gain Canadian content. This was a one-hour program produced by the local Little Theatre. The dialogue at times was reminiscent of an olcl Laurel and Hardy movie and, without warning, it suddenly turned into a Frankenstein•Dt'acula farce, Such lines as "you mean Alad- din's lamp is Magic" were mean- ingless, but I'm sure the child- ren liked it and that's some con- solation for the station showing it, The best scene of all was the dance of the three witches, which reminded me of one of Shakes - pear's plays which has the line "when shall we three meet ag- ain, in thunder, lightning or in rain." This truly was a musical highlight and should have been expanded. It was here that the composer, Wanda Kanten, show- ed great skill. Magic in this production was certainly missing in more ways than one, 1 kept hoping a mag- ician would appear on the set and make the production vanish, but it continued for one hour. This is one of the many things wrong with this government re- gulation . It's a known fact that Canadian stations will re -run old hockey games and use many oth- er tricks merely to meet the 55% Canadian -content law. This is shameful and the government should know better. This regula- tion should be abolished. No wonder Canadians buy antennas and subscribe to cable companies so that they can watch American outlets. Judy LaMarsh, please do some- thing about this. You're the cab- inet minister for broadcasting. Eliminate some of these stupid broadcasting regulations. MRS. JIM SCOTT SR. HOSTESS TO BURNS CHURCH U,C,1V.

Huron•Bruce) The 4th session of the 27th Ontario Legislature opened on Tuesday, January 25th with all the pomp and pageantry usually accorded to the occasion. As Is always the case the Speech from the ' Throne was read by the Lie - tenant -Governor, in this case Earl Rowe. A few of the highlights in the speech were the establishment of a provincial crop insurance program in co-operation with Ot- tawa, Presumably this will cover the crop year of 1966. The Ontario Development Ag- ency will be expanded into a new Crown Corporation to provide capital financing for small busi- ness, Legislation will provide for government approval, licens- ing and control of all Nursing Hones in Ontario to achieve uni- formity in standards and safetly, The revised report from an in- dependent redistribution commis• siori which redrew the province's electoral boundaries will be ta- bled in the House this season, Recommendations contained in the Select' Committee report on Municipal Government will be acted upon as well as Legislation implementing the government's proposals for reorganizing Metro- politan Toronto. The Department of Education will again rank first in financial priorities. Substantial sums of money will be required to get the Community College program going. The educational program appeared to squash any remaining hope that Ontario might be ' able to survive another year without any general increases in taxation. In view of the announced pro- gram it promises to be a lengthy, if somewhat lively session. 11111111111141 DONT BE SURPRISED IF VERY SOON, YOU HEM WERE WORKING ON THE MOON WE'RE DOING BUSINESS ALLOVER OMB A �.. c & SON PLUMBING -HEATING 234299 IONDESBORO WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1966 THE BLYTH STANDARD PAGE THREE Appoint Church Officers STRONGER TURNIP MAGGOTS REQUIRE NEW CONTROL METHODS At Belgrave Annual A potluck luncheon proceeded the annual meeting of Knox Un- ited Church, Belgrave, held on Tuesday, January 25, in the church schoolrooms, Rev, Arthur Jackson opened the meeting with scripture and prayer, Ken Wheeler was ap- pointed secretary for the day and he read the minutes of the last annual meeting.

This new strain of maggots first caused complete turnip crop losses on six Ontario farm in 1963. Crop losses have since in- creased and more are expected this year. Even one hundred times the usual amounts as tried by the Canadian Department of Agriculture, are useless against the aldrin -heptachlor - resistant strain. What's more, farmers ad- ding these amounts of insecticide to their crops can expect to have them confiscated as dangerous for human consumption. I-Iow, then, can turnips continue to flourish? "The real question is, are you going to be growing turnips or not " replies Profes- sor H. W. Goble, Provincial En- tomologist, Ontlau'io Agricultural College, Guelph. "If so, don': plant a new crop within one mile of maggot -infested areas or at least grow the crop as far away as possible. To many turnip growers, that means moving to another farm. Aldrin and hep- tachlor once killed both maggots and the beneficial insects which preyed on them. Now, only the maggots survive, In areas where these chemicals have been the control, it would be better to grow turnips without insecticides" Professor Goble advises. "Rath- er than having a possible com- plete crop failure, the beneficial insects could do some salvaging." Other cole crops, including cauliflower and cabbage host mag- gits. Unlike the underground turnip, the consumer product of these crops is unharmed. How- ever, cole crops are maggot, trans- mitters, so turnips should not he grown near them. Neither should early or late turnips he grown on your own or near a neighbor's fields that produced then last year, Sowing late in the season, when the maggot population has decreased, might counteract this increasing 'disaster, County Council Committees Appointed The following committees were named for 1906 at the Huron County Council meeting held re- cently.

Patterson, Presi- dent of the Canadian Council of the Blind, in a special White Cane Week Interview, "Today, more than at any time in history, working conditions demand good sight. We depend on our eyes for driving, for watching televis- ion and for reading, which libra- ries report increases each year," Because good sight is so essen- tial to modern living, the CCB and The Canadian National Irk stitute for the Blind,who spon- sor White Cane Week, are dedi- cating this year's program to sight preservation and prevention of blindness, There is good reason for their choice, In this day where vision is so necessar, blindness is on the increase, A- ccording to a three-year study recently released by CNIB, the ratio is 132 blind persons to 100,000 population as compared with 105 blind persons per 100,000 in 1946. Doctors state that half the blind- ness in Canada could be prevented if people would seek eye care at the first sign of trouble. ,In ad- dition, thousands suffer eye ac- cidents needlessly each year. The Workmen's Compensation Boards of Canada report on-the-job in- juries totalling between 300,000 and 400,000 every year. This re- cord does not include farm, household or recreation accidents. "Needless blindness and un- necessray eye injuries indicate that seeing Canadians sihould be more alert to the importance of their own sight, "Mrs, Patterson, who is blind herself, einpha sized. She declared that people give more thought to the care of their cars than to the care of their eyes, She gave a few sug- gestions for protecting your vi- sion. See your eye doctor at the first sign of trouble. If he pre- scribes glasses, wear them, When watching television, keep the room lighted to avoid sharp con- trast • it may cause strain, If you work in industry, protect Our eyes by wearing safety glasses, and most important of all have a routine eye examina- tion every 2 to 3 years. The Pain you will save yourself and your family is inestimable. "These simple precautions are effective in sight protection," Mrs. Patterson pointed out, "Re- member, they are your eyes - one pair for a lifetime," 0-4-4 ♦ ♦ ♦ • ♦ •-•-• 444 ♦ ♦ 0••••••-•-•-•-•-•••-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-•-+÷•-•-0.4-40-+-+•-• 4, 1 t 1+44-4440-•-•-•44-0-4,444-04-4-4-44-444-044-0444-0444-44 •-++-44-+44-•-" '.,-4-.-+,-.-+•+„-0-+„-4+++++-+„+4+4.44•+.-+-.,,,-++-+•4-+•+tH+ 4 Special lop Th2, V 1.966 FORT) Galaxy 500, 2 door, hard top 1966,.COMET 4 door, standard transmission 1966.METEOR Rideau 4 door 1966 METEOR Rideau 500, 4 door, V 8, auto- matic transmission 1965 FORD Galaxy 4 door, hard top, V S, automatic transmission 1965 FORD Custom 4 door, auto. transmission 1961 CHEV. 4 door, automatic transmission 1964 PONTIAC Laurentian, 4 door, standard transmission 1964 PONTIAC Laurentian, 4 door, auto- matic transmission 1964 CHEVY II, 6 cyl. stan, transmission 1963 PONTIAC 4 door, 6 cyl, auto. trans. 1963.MERCURY 4 door, stan, transmission 1962 FORD Fairlane 6 cyl., star. transmission 1962.FORD Galaxy 4 door, stan. trans, 1961 FORT) Station Wagon 1960 AUSTIN 4 door 1960 FALCON 6 cyl., standard transmission 1960 CHEV. 4 door, 6 cyl., auto. trans. 1958 PONTIAC Station Wagon Hamm's Garage Blyth, Ontario.

CIIILDREN'S AID REPORT GIVEN AT COUNTY COUNCIL Huron Children's Aid Society last year served 157 families, in. volving 504 children. The num• ben of casts closed was 79, in- volving 283 children, There Sucre 19,527 days' care provided for the welfare of children under the Child Welfare Act, These statistics were given county council in the report of Miss Clare McGowan, local direc• tor, who' said the number of children in care. at December 31 was 64. Forty -!line adoptions were completed in 1965. Mem- bers of the staff made 6,832 vis- its, covering 72,902 miles. Miss McGowan devoted most of this report to the new Child. Wel- fare Act, and in particular part three, "A new section 1 am not happy about," she said, "is 60(2) which states that the Children's Aid Society shall make every effort to ensure the .collection of ar- rears regarding affiliation orders, "This can ruin any positive assistance we are trying to give the parent, We do not want to be a collection agency, and much prefer that this responsibility re- main with the court. This is something that troubles Inc very much," When babies are born in hos- tels for umnarried mothers, the law requires adoptions to be made by the C.A.S. in that juris- diction, which creates an awk- ward wkward situation, Miss McGowan pointed out. "Unmarried mothers are eith- er going to have their parents or others go and get the baby and bring it to our office, or we may take the girl back to this county, and then she may give it to, us. London, Chatham, Hamilton, Windsor and Toronto where these hostels are, find societies cannot get enough homes for their bab- ies, I think we won't be making these babies wards unless we can make some arrangement where- by the babies can be brought back Into Huron," Annual meeting of the Iluron Children's Aid is to be held at the Legion Hall in Clinton on February 9—a dinner meeting at 6.30.
