BLYTH, ONTARIO - WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 11, 1967 DOG PROBLEM AGAIN ERUPTS Volume 78 • No. 31 Single Copies Six Cents IN BLYTH Lions To SpearHead Ice Project $16,000 Will Spell Success Police Chief Jim Warwick again aprpoached The Standard regard- ing the running at large of dogs in our community. It seems that this becomes a problem each wint- er and we suppose it is only natural following the long period in which the dogs are forced to be tied up in the summer time. This time the problem is centr- ed around the public school. Jim says It is apparent some of our residents are letting their dogs follow the children to school and as a result, several spend the biggest part of the day around the grounds, Some of the smaller children have been knocked down by the playful canines and have become extremely frightened to walk to school on their own. Jim has asked us to asisst him in relating the problem to Blyth residents and to ask for their as• r'istance in helping him aleviate this problem. So folks, if your canine pet is allowed to run at large during the winter months, perhaps you could do Jim and the school children a favour by keep- ing them tied or at least under control during the hours when children are going to and return- ing from school. School Board Inaugural Held Following A committee from the Blyth Lions Club comprising Lions Ed. Watson, John Manning and Warn- er Collings, met with members of the Blyth Artificial Ice Committee Monday evening in the Memorial hall to discuss the possibility of artificial ice for the Blyth arena. It was decided unanimously that the Lions Club take over the helm and organize an area -wide compaign to raise funds for the project. Figures were made available by the former committee and showed that $16,000 in additional money is needed to complete the project. Donations to date amount to $5,504.97 with liabilities in the form of unpaid accounts approxi- mating $1,760,00. The meeting was also told that centennial grants should total $4,623,00. If centennial grants are to be received, however, the entire project must be completed by July 1st of this year and with only six months left in which to work, the Lions are planning an immediate start, Further organizational meet• ings have been planned for the Opening Of New Area Schools PERSONAL INTERES'P The inaugural meeting of the newly formed Morris, East Wa- wanos'h T.S.A.

For the first time this winter ice is available at the local arena but unfortunately It has come too late to ,be of much use to our hockey teams. It is becoming more and more apparent that artificial ice is a necessity if the arena is to be of much use to those who enjoy the winter time activities that take place in the local sports building, Our teams have been forced tc postpone every home game to date and have been playing 'their away, From home games against opponents who are for- tunate to have artificial ice in- stalled in their arenas.. The Blyth teams have had very little, 11 any practice at all, ancl, to say the least, have been anything but successful during the 1966.67 campaign. To site a good example, we overheard the coach of our pee wee hockey team mention the fact that because of postpone• monts, they have ten games left to play between now and the 23rc1 of this month -• a fete that is quite impossible. You see, all league games must be completed by January 23rd to enable plenty oI time for playoff action, The coach was contemplating dropping the team from the league because the chances of gaining a berth in the playoffs have long past 1 faded from reality. It seems too bad that just when the boys have a chance to use home ice for practice, the schedule comes to a sudden end, But we must face the facts, all hockey now a days, from the smallest league to the largest, is based around the artificial ice hockey season. We either have to do one thing or the other get in the swim, or stay out completely, This paper has failed to publish the results of hockey games play- ed layed by Blyth teams this year, '1''his has been done for what we believe is a very good reason, It's bad enough for our boys to suffer humiliating defeats at the hands of their more fortunate cppontents, Why make them suffer any more by publicizing the scores In the newspaper. if the forthcoming artificial ice campaign is not successfiI, we strongly advocate getting out of the hockey picture entirely, Certainly it's the greatest game in the world and teriffic training for any youngster ••• if they have the same chance and are on the same footing as their oppontents, But it's also the saddest thing in the world to see a group of youngsters completely humiliated in a game where they are at a distinct disadvantage with their opponents, Mr, and Mrs. Berl. Lake, Lon- don, spent the weekend with Mr. and Mrs, Ilarold Vodden, also vis- ited Mr. Lake's sister, Mrs, Lyle Ilopper, Belgrave, and with Mr. Hopper in Wingham Hospital. 11Ir, Brock Vodden, of Port Ar. thur, spent the weekend with his parents, 11Ir. and Mrs. Harold Vodden. Mrs, Robert Chalmers is a pa- tient in Clinton Public Hospital. Mrs. Leonard Cook underwent surgery in Clinton Public Hos- pital last week.

BINGOS START AGAIN THIS SATURDAY NIGHT The regular Saturday night Lions Club bingos will commence again this Saturday night follow• ing the holiday season. The games will follow the same pattern as before and will have the $75,00 jackpot prize if won in 60 calls. This will ac- celerate $10.00 each week the money goes unwon. The Lions are awaiting the, reaction to the bingos with bated breath, Each year that they have decided to extend the games past the new year they have met with very poor results, The pop- ularity of the weekly event this season has far exceeded that in any of the preceding years, and it is hoped they will be met more favorably this time. With the Lions deciding to take over the helm of the artificial ice campaign, a profitable winter scheduling of the bingos would be more than greatly appreciated. So remember, every time you attend one of the bingos, au tare also supporting the ice cam- paign. Your support is urgently needed and will be gratefully ac- cepted, forthcoming week and it is ex• peered that a campaign of the village and surrounding commun- ity will get under way imediat- ely. Yes folks, it won't he long now until we know for sure if our oung people will be blessed with the a advantages of artificial ice or not. Let's hope that the campaign "goes over the top" so that our youth will be afforded the same recreational opportunit- ies that may of the villages in the surrounding area are now of- fering to their children, Conservationists Trying To Revive Local Organization; Meeting Planned For Next Wednesday Evening An attempt will be made to re- vive the long -dormant Blyth Con- servation Club next Wednesday evening, January 18th. A meet• ing will be held in the Legion Hall on that date at 8 o'clock when Lands and Forests representatives from Ilespeler, Wingham and CANADA PENSION PLAN MAKES FIRST PAYMENTS The first ,benefits of the Can• ado Pension Plan retirement pe n. cion be paid in January 10 contributors who are 68 or over ancl retired and'to contributors 70 or over whether retired or not. To find out if you are eligible to receive this retirement pension, make application to your district Canada Pension Plan office. There are 7 offices across Canada. Goderich will attend and offer their assistance. The club has a good many mem• bers who have been paying their annual fees each year but meet- ings have not been held now for several years and Jim Warwick is now attempting to revive the in- terest of local conservationists. Wildlife films will be shown and one of the game wardens is planning to have a rattle snake on display, All :in all it looks like a very worthwhile evening if you are at all interested in fish and game club activities. Be sure to attend and help bring this organization back on the active list. A good strong club could aid greatly in bringing this part of the country back to the fine hunting and fish- ing area it was at one time. (ill; llii'I' ;9! ll!�!ill i 1!)

If you read the advertisements in this issue you will notice that Blyth Council have placed a notice to the effect that the local dump will be closed to the public on all days except Thursdays. We are wondering just what constitutes the "`Blyth Dunip," If you take a drive past the place it becomes quite apparent that it's any place from the edge of the road right back over the hill to the proper and ottt•of-the-way area to be used for unwanted garbage. Why some people persist in us• ing either the roadside or "just inside the fence" as the spot to clump their garbage is beyond us. To our way of thinking, its just downright laziness, At the best of times a municipal dump is a rt.ther unsightly area of the com- munity, but the attitude of more than a few of its users is absolutely disgraceful., This action leads us to wonder just how effective the one•day opening of the dump will be. We'll miss our guess if this unwanted practise of `inside•the fence use" is not increased by the locking of the gate, Not long after the school re- union the Standard received a letter from one a of our former residents who had attended the reunion. During a trip to the Blyth Union Cemetery, this party was absolutely astonished to see ell • paper and garbage literally strewn along the road and fields and overlapping into the cemetery itself. Whoever the party was failed to sign their name to the letter and unfortunately it could not be printed in the paper. Non de plume names can be used but the writer's name must be signed to the original copy to protect 11ie editor. In any event, this party had a very worthwhile compaint and it is a shame the letter could not have been published. It certainly 'would have given some people a view of how their careless use of the clump is seen in the eyes of visitors to our village. So, please folks, use a little common decency when taking y our garbage to the dump. Either drive or carry the stuff up over the hill before throwing it away. And better still, if any of it is disposable, light a match to it before leaving, That is, un- less the wind is blowing at gale force and could prove a fire ha* zarci. With the practice of a little care and common sense, the Blyth dump would go unnoticed even while driving past on the road. 1'1�:'; :11 i1 1 i � :'lir II"I'll I: 111 I" n.: ,,11 n''1�'I � � 1 � 111 I 1� Ii!!11 i 1.1111, ll; i'1101 Lli1Ti�1i: ill!IIII: ill, '1111f'111!I 1,411111 Illili,iiolilllilu�lllllli11 instil!l;;blilip1191.III!111111IIIGIp91i9111,;11111i,111911111111111111111911111111111 .:.11{,�:111LI,I:l,,11.1: l :I �I. ::.1. � I, II ,,:;,:..�.I 1.:1 . �.. I I 11 PAGE TWO THE BLYTH STANDARD WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 11, 1967 SUGAR and SPIcB By esu snui.r THOSE WONDERFUL YEARS By the time this appears in print, I expect that I shall have severed an association of 17 years with the weekly newspaper busi• ness. And it is not without some sadness that I do so. Sometimes it seems that our life is governed by accident, that we have very little control over it. Had the war lasted a few months longer, had I taken a different course at university, or gone to a different college, I would not have met my wife. And had I not met that particular girl at that particular time, I would never have been in the newspaper business, nor would I be writing this column. Accident again took a hand, We were in the city. I had enrolled in a post -graduate course in English. University teaching was the objective. Came the tragic news that my brother-in-law (on my wife's side) had been drowned in a boating accident. He owned a weekly news- paper. We hastened to the scene, to be of what comfort we could. And I pitched in, as ignorant as Mrs. Murphy's cow, to help keep the paper going for a week or two, until other arrangements were made. Eleven years later, I was still there. From the beginning, I was fascinated. This was better than the world of Chaucer and Spenser and the Romantic poets, the whole fleece -lined world of the scholar, This was life. There was an exciting tempo to it that suited me. Monday was a day of desperation. No news, no editorials written, nobody wanted to buy an advertisement that early in the week. The Linotype operator was getting owly because you couldn't keep him busy and he knew what was coming. Tuesday, the pace accelerated rapidly. The news began to pour in. You madly dashed off two sparkling editorials, You tried to make a sensible story of the donnybrook at last night's council meet- ing. You hit the street and sold ads, whether it was raining or snowing or blastingly hot. Wednesday was even moreso. Complaints, callers, classified ads piling in, and the inevitable merchant waltzing in ,after the deadline, with. a big ad you simply hadn't room to print. Proof-reading away behind. People in looking for free publicity. People in just to chat about town affairs, or their grandchildren. And the linotype operator, dangerous to the point of being lethal, within a radius of 12 feet of his machine. Work often till midnight putting the sheet to bed. Thursday was decision day. Too many ads. Can we leave this one out? Too much country correspondence. Which reporter w•ili be least infuriated if we leave her stuff till next week? Short column of front page news. Where can we dig it up? The photos haven't arrived. Rush to the bus station; see if they're in. But by about 10:30 a.m., she was on the press, and the comforting thump and rumble of the old machine was reward enough for all the scrambling, There was solid satisfaction in folding, stamping and mailing the finished product, You felt as good as though you'd just wrestled an alligator to a split decision. At any rate, I was hooked. Formed a partnership with one of the printers, and we bought the thing. We didn't have 40 cents apiece. But we went out like a couple of pirates, hit every friend and relative we knew, scratched up the down payment, outbid every competitor because we had nothing to lose, and took on what was probably the biggest mortgage on any weekly newspaper on the continent. They were great fun, those first few years. There wasn't much caviar or champagne. Every spare nickle went into the debts. But we made it, and made a host of good friends among weekly editors on the way, But I can tell you that running a weekly newspaper is' one of the roughest games in town. Holidays are almost unknown. Long hours are the rule. Somebody is always sore at you, And you'll never be rich. 1'II miss it. Some of it. And I'll always have warm memories of it. But I hope to keep in touch through this column, which will continue as usual. OLD DRUG IIAZARD Old drugs are a poison hazard. The Food and Drug Directorate advises throwing out old drugs when they have served their pur- pose. Scme drugs lose their strength with age. Vitamins, antibiotics, insulin and peroxide are some ex- amples of those drugs that lose their effectiveness with age. However there are other drugs, like the common headache pill and iodine, which become too strong to undergo other harmful changes with age. Bottles with damaged or mis- sing labels should also be thrown out. Flush discarded drugs clown the toilet. Make sure they do not fall into the hands of children. ;22 BLIND FIELDMEN ATTENDED ANNUAL CONVENTION IN TORONTO Twenty-two blind Field Secre- taries from all over Ontario met in Toronto recently for their an- nual conference on future bene- fits for the blind of the province. With The Canadian National In- stitute for the Blind, these mer. are responsible for the CNIB ser- vice programme on a community level. Jack Clements, the local CNIB representative reported that the conference focused at- tention on the position of the blind in modern society. The group examined the CNIB aid to 130 blind university stu- dents in Canada. They are study- ing a variety of subjects includ- ing Electrical Engineering and Comparative European Literature. Some students with residual vi- sion read inkprint books with spe- cial magnifiers provided by the CNIB. Others use the CNIB lib- rary, which provides recorded and Braille Book: transcribed by vol. unteers. Mr. Clements reported that 33 blind Ontarians were newly -em- ployed in industry alone during the last fiscal year, bringing the total to over 215 blind workers in manufacturing plants outside the CNIB. The field man was proud of 8 blind people in a new career - computer programming. This is a field with a future for the blind as great as the broadening hori- zons of modern science. In the field of rehabilition, the CNIB helped 28 newly blind persons this year through the specialized Adjustment Training Course, where they learned Allis for dai- ly living such as typing, Braille and travel training. Among the many duties of the majority of the field men is the 11 by Ten years ago a letter to the editor appeared in The Toronto Telegram complaining about Front Page Challenge. "I feel compell- ed to drop you a line to see what, if anything, can be done to have the program kept off TV screens." About the same time a televis- ion reviewer wrote in his column: "We think disaster is not far off." Originally, planned as a summer replacement, "Challenge" is cur- rently celebrating its 10th season on CBC -TV. The original panes consisted of Alex Barris, Scott Young, Toby Robins and Gordon Sinclair. Mod- erator was Win Barron. After the first 13 weeks, Fred Davis became the moderator; Pierre Berton was signed up; Gordon Sinclair and Toby Rob. bins stayed, and guest panelists were introduced for each show. A few years later, Toby lett for England and her chair was taken by Betty Kennedy—+this complet- ing the panel that has remained intact ever since, The list of guests include such diverse and newsworthy people as: Harold Wilson, Gypsy Rose Lee, Gordie Ilowe, Eleanor Roose- velt, Groudh Marx, nary Pick- ford, George Jessel and Zsa Zsa Gabor, Last week's program featured Sir John A. ;1Facdonnld (in the person of actor Robert Christie) and Prince Minister Pearson—the first time a current- Prime Min- ister hos appeared on Front Page Challenge.

The conference studied expansion of services for them. Prevention of blindness was a topic of native discussion. Last year 2,771 had sight saved or improved through eye examina- tions, operations, or some other type of assistance provided by CNIB here in Ontario. "Through prevention of blindness and pro- motion of eye safety the CNIB serves not only' the 8,000 blind of the province, but the v.holc popu- lation," the CNIB man concluded.

Bonanza Is "Commutingest" Show In All Of Hollywood The distance from the front doorstep of the Ponderosa ranch in the Bonanza series to the near- est acre of the "ranch" proper is 50 miles by freeway, To the far- thest acre at the Lake Tahoe re- gion in Nevada it's 400 miles, 'l.lhis geographical situation pla- ices Bonanza (seen on CBC -TV in color Sundays at 9 p.m, EST) one of the most traveled companies on television. The reason, of course, is that the Ponderosa in- teriors are shot in a Hollywood studio but most exteriors are film• ed on location, The Cantwrights • - Lorne Greene, Dan Blocker and Michael Landon • • make at least one loca- tion trip for each show of the sea- son witlh a few rare exceptions. Unlike many western shows, Bon- anza doesn't shoot its exteriors on a studio backlot. Thus, at it's closest, the Pon- derosa "ranch" begins at Golden Oaks Ranch, a huge spied owned by Uhe late Wald Disney, near Newhall in Placerita Canyon, The- ranch's furthest point is the Lake Tahoe area, fictional location of the Ponderosa. The company makes several trips to Tahoe • for 'as long as three ,reeks. "'T'o capture realism and natural • beauty," says producer David Dor tort, "we prefer to find suitable exteriors even if they are far away." The "local" trips by freeway are done on a daily basis, The company pulls out of Hollywood at 6 a.m, and threads through the city traffic to one of three free- way% Once off the freeway, of course, the reads may dwindle to dusty lanes at the outskirts of Los Angeles. Besides a crew of 75 to 100 people, the entourage includes horses and wranglers. Ninety horses were shipped to Lone Pine, Calif., for the shooting of the 1966.67 season's opener, a tw'o•pai'ter called The Pursued. "The annual bill for horse rental, incidentally, runs to: about $60,- 000," says Dortort. In any case such extensive loca- bion shooting sometimes makes the cast and crew wonder if they're not the "conlmutingest" show in Hollywood.
