KELLER, A policy regarding school attendance areas was passed last week at the Huron County Board of Education Meeting. It decrees that when a parent applies in writing to the board to have a child attend a school other than the one• in the dist- rict and when several conditions are met, the board will grant permission for the change -pro- viding the request is made no later than July 31, in any year, However, such changes can only become effective at the beginning of the school year except in situations deemed by the board to be of an emergency nature. The conditions are: that there will be no increase in cost to the board for transporting stud- ents to and from school;. that - the pupil loading factors in both school involved will not be ad- versely affected; that procure- ment of additional teaching staff isnot a direct result of such request; and when the pupil cannot obtain the course or subjects in his designated school that are needed to fulfill his educational goals. Permission was given to hire ann additional teacher at Gold- en Circle School for the Ment- ally Retarded in Wingham and Queen Elizabeth. School in Goderich on a half day, every i day basis for 1972-73. Larry Robinson hurt in crash Only one accident was re - parted in the past week by the:Wingham Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police, On July 22, a car driven by Larry D. Robinson. of R. R. #1, Belgrave went out of control and $1500 damage resulted. ' The car went off the south edge of the roadway, skidded to the north edge of the road- way, struck a cement bridge and rolled over, Robinson was injured in the crash, Enrolment at Golden Circle has increased from 15 to 20 this year. At Queen Elizabeth School, enrolment will increase by six from 16 to 22. At Huron . Hope at J. A, D. McCurdy school, e nrolm ent remains at 15, A report from Howick Central School that an electrical ser- vice at the school is inadequate has prompted the board to run a check on other, schools where a possible too -small electrical service is suspected, The situation at Howick is a "potential fire hazard" the board learned. An estimate of between $4, 909; 75 to $5,304,75 will be required to update the service and will be completed ahead of other work at Howick. - Some appointments were announced by the board includ- ing Miss,Elizabeth Twiss as - English Department Head at Central Huron Secondary School and Lynn Myers as Physical Ed- ucation Department Head at Goderich District Collegiate Institute, Six teachers were also form- erly appointed to positions in . the county, They were Mrs, Jean Eaton and Paul Spittal to Holmesville Public School; Terrence Bullen to Robertson Memorial Public School in Goderich and Blyth Public School on nine -tenths time; John E.. Talbot at Hullett Central;' Mrs; Margery Hueth. ` er, half -tune to Blyth Public School; and Mrs, Elizabeth Mc- Gee, three-fifths time , to Huron Centennial Public School, As well, custodians -retained for F. E Madill Secondary School at Wingham-are Clifford J. Roulston, John Askes and John K. Clark. - - Mrs, -Moira Couper, Hensall, who has been working as a co- ordinator of children's recreat- ion in Huron County for the summer, has received permiss- ion to use the kiln at South Huron District High School pro- viding suitable arrangements can be made with the principal, Joseph Wooden- and the custodial staff. She will be glazing and firing the hand -thrown pottery of youngsters throughout the county involved in such work at their local playgrounds, The board understands that no students will be transported to the schools and that all work will be carried out by Mrs, Couper. Two other kilns in schools in the county - Seaforth Public School and Robertson Memorial School - were not included in the program, because these schools are locked for a portion of the summer while custodial staff are on vacation, It was felt that suitable arrangements at these schools would be diffi- cult to make, Board members agreed this was in keeping with the board's pol- icy to make school facilities accessible to the public on as many occasions as possible, Man remanded on wounding charge - Michael James Dionne, 34, of Windsor was remanded to August 28,, when he appeared . in provincial court in Goderich - Monday on a charge of wounding a Lucknow area youth in a shoot- ing incident "July 14, Mr, Dionne was camping in East Wawanosh Park near Bel - grave when the early morning shooting occurred, He is free on bail, The wounded youth, William McDonald, 19 of R. R. 2, Luck- now ucknow suffered minor injuries from 14 shotgun pellet wounds in his back and arms. He and three other youths, Ronald Snowden, 18, John Mar- tin, 19, and Terry Jamieson, 16, all of R. R. 2, Lucknow, will also appear in court Aug. 28 on charges of creating a dis- turbance, - McDonald and Jamieson also face wilful damage charges in- volving a camper trailer owned by Mr. Dionne. Is th is a sellout? A bill board in a field north of Belgrave advertises the virtues of one real estate agent. The owner of the farm, however, must ,not have been convinced by the `sign. He listed to farm, where the sign is located, for sale with a competing firm. - East Wawanosh Conservatives prepare for fall election Conservative Party organizers in the township of East Wawanosh were appointed at a meet- ing -in Belgrave onThursdaynight. They include:. sitting, left to right, Roy Pattison, Secretary of " the township organization; Robert McKinley, M. P. for Huron; George Johnston, chairman of the township; and standing, Mason Bailey, poll chairtnan of -Poll 1; Sydney Thompson, poll chairman of Poll "3; Walter Scott, poll chairman of Poll 2 and Ernie Snell, vice-chairman of the township organization, Also named were Bill Craig for Poll 5 and Ernie Snowden for Poll 4, Progressive Conservatives in East Wawanosh were told Thurs- day night that grass roots strength is important part of a winning election campaign. Robert McKinley, M. P, for Huron and the likely Conservat- ive candidate in the next federal election expected this fall said it was the strength of his party at the township level that help- ed him win the past two elect- ions, Last time, because of the par- ty's township organizations, he said, he was able to spend more time in new areas which had been added to the riding, This, he said, helped him win in Huron at a time when the Liber- al Party, led by Pierre Trudeau, was sweeping the country. This time, he•said, the battle - did not appear to be so hard but he warned against relying on the fact that the government was not in favour with the people. "Strange things happen" he said when a party becomes over- confident, Mr. McKinley had hard words fcr many of the legislative mea- sures of the government in the past year. He said the tax 1,9 changes and the proposed family security plan" were "socialist measures". He had never seen, he said, different classes in the country, but if there were such classes then it was the middle income group (which included most of the people of Huron) who were being penalized to help the lower income groups, He claimed that many of the backbenchers in the Liberal government were unhappy be- cause "they don't have much say". Mr. McKinley dismissed the fcreign takeover bill saying it wouldn't do much to stop Am- erican takeover of Canadian business and said the proposal for an opportunities for senior citizens program was just an attempt to buy votes. He said it was the kind of thing "the intellectuals in the Prime Min- ister's office dream up." Trudeau doesn't listen to his caucus the way Mr, Stanfield does, Mr. McKinley claimed. The Huron M. P, predicted an election for October 16 or earlier. He based his predict- ion on the fact that by-elect- ions have been called fa two Continued on pg. 3.

Their grand- father made up their mind for them many years ago,' But some voters are not committed since the year one and they are the voters the politicians will be after, If you are an uncommitted, inquiring voter, how can you find out mare about your candidate? You could go to those party -sponsored speaking nights each of the parties will hold, but here's a word of advice: if you really want to know what kind of man the candidate is, don't go to such meetings. You'll only get confused, It is amazing the different faces politicians wear if they are speaking to a crowd of people from all parties and when they are speaking to the converted of their own party. Before the mixed crowd, they invariably sound broad-minded, respectable and honest, the kind of man you'd like for a trusted friend and member of Parliament. In front of members of their own party, however, they become narrow-minded political fanat- ics who would support their party if every member was found to be a member of the Mafia, and would damn the other party if Saint Peter himself was the leader, In one case, you gain respect; in the other, you want to throw up, The problem then, for the uncommitted, is to fathom which side of the politician is the real man. Is he really the fair, hon- est man he is in public and is just putting on an act to keep the party faithful happy, or is he a political hack who puts on a good show to try to win votes from the public? Who will ever know the answer? r. Probably the best way to get to know the candidates is at an all- party meeting, but in general, few of these have been held in this riding in the past. Let's hope a few will this time, so that voters can get a look at all the candidates at the same time in an atmosphere where all can have an equal chance to be heard. Parols should be POSDOns-ID:li The decision of the Huron County Board of Education last week to have parents sign waiver forms before children are allowed to take part in school field trips is not only fair, but smart, The Huron Board has been very wary of school field trips ever since two children were drowned on a field trip a couple of years ago, and the parents sued the board, They won the suit and the Board had to pay damages. But why should a school board have to take responsibility for children on such trips? Surely parents know the dangers involved in trips of the like and surely the decision should be left up to them on whether or not the children should be allowed to go. The Board's decision last week has simply put the responsibility back where it belongs. For too many parents, the edt#cation system is simply a con- venient baby sitting service, They care little of,what goes on once their child has left for school. They seldom talk with the teachers about the progress of the child. They just aren't inter- ested in the school, - - But let anything happen to the child during the hours when he's away at school, and they become the most agitated, Why aren't the teachers more careful? they ask. Why don't they do their job properly? - - Obviously, the Board can't make such parents change, so the least they can do is protect themselves from them. Image? Big deal Anyone talking about politics these days, seems to be sure to bring up the term "image" in any conversation that lasts more than 30 seconds, - Images and image -building seems to be a favourite topic espec- ially when discussing Prime Minister Trudeau, The other day a radio commentator was disturbed because of a so-called secret report leaked from the upper echelons of the Liberal party which said the Prime Minister should try to appeal to the young, The commentator spoke about the situation as if there was something sinister about it, But really, what's so new and different about images? The Prime Minister appeals to the young, and that's supposed to be bad, but John Diefenbaker appealed to the older people. Was that any better? When Diefenbaker came to power, the older vote , was an important factor, and now the youth vote is important . so each politician's success depends on who he appeals too, Trud- eau would not have been as successful in the 1950's as he is today, just as Diefenbaker's popularity waned when the segment of pop-. ulation he found most favour with, became a smaller part of the political pie. - Soon, it will no longer be a man that appeals to the young that will make political hay, but a man who appeals to the middle- aged because the products of the baby boom are slowly advancing towards middle age, Then, another man -will cone along who will do well because he is sympathetic with the problems of that group which makes up the major portion of the population.

There's so much movement that my eyes play tricks on my digestive system. And I can't follow the play, I never know who has the puck -and rather than risk vomiting all over the - livingroom rug, I'll drop the whole issue and go do the iron - But I live with hockey nuts. My husband and my two sons - just adore the game. In the average hockey season, 1 get more news from the nets than - most people who are acquaint- ed with the sport;- From the opening face-off of the season to the final Stanley Cup period, I'm informed, Totally informed, That may be part of the reas- on I feel so strongly about this Bobby Hull thing. As far as I'm concerned, I don't give a tink- er's darn about NHL rules and regulations, All 1 know is that Hull is a fine hockey player and I believe we should send our best to the Canada -Russia game. 1, for one, would like to see the Russians trounced solidly by the Canadian bunch,- - and I don't care if Clarence . Campbell or Alan Eagleson or . the entire NHL uppercrust have their noses out of joint because' of it, The part which really irks me is that the NHL insists on holding the upper hand at all costs. For years, - or so it seems to me, - the NHL sat placidly by and let theRussians wipe the ice with anything we :. could put out there. There wasn't any national pride to be upheld as far as the Canadian contingent of the NHL was con- cerned, It was as though it wasn't even Canadian: Now, it appears the NHL sees a way to snake some money and - gain some new kind of status for itself, - It has agreed that only Canadian barn players who are signed with the NHL shall be permitted to participate in the game. That's really superiority_ plus. What hockey team could possibly be so good that it could not use Bobby Hull, an NHL legend if there ever was one, I'm not arguing with the NHL stand to stick to the rules and - bar Bobby Hull, I'M arguing against the rule ever being made in the first place. I'd - like to know the wisdom of it, - - or was it purely an economic venture designed to prove that the.NHL is the best there is without help from anyone, The NHL president Clarence Campbell has charged that the Prime Minister of Canada was not well-informed, It appears that Team Canada's own coach Harry Sinden wasn't too well informed, He thought he could use Hull, He even announced that Hull would be one of 35 - players who would play in the series against the Russians, And what about PET getting involved in this thing? Should he have kept his cool and quiet- ly ignored the situation? - I don't know what the best politica] move would be, I don't think like a politician, But I'm afraid that if I was the Prime Minister of Canada and Bobby Hull was willing to play on my team against our oldest and strongest competit- ion, I'd be hopping up and - down too if someone said he couldn't play becAuse of a paper technicality. I'm not so sure I would have refused to meet with Clarence Campbell, - if that's true, - to discuss the natter, I think I might have been so hostile I would have gladly had Camp- bell ushered into my office if for no other reason than to em- phasize the point that Canada's honour is at stake, That's more important than any NHL red tape, Maybe the team can beat Russia without Hull and with dull skates and cracked hockey sticks, I don't know, But if Bobby Hull wanted to join forces with any hockey team, I'd let hint.

No large factories. have located here or moved out in the time, Recent years have been char- acttrized by slow growth in the village, Cordon says, but there has never been a year when a lot of building was done, He sees the trend of people from small towns going to the cities being reversed and a large number of people moving from cities to small towns to find a better way of life, ItA town like this will grow", he predicts, because of the way of life it offers. He feels that no other town has as much to offer in a good way of life. He points out that Lake Huron is only a few miles away and that fishing and hunting (two of his hobbies) are as close as the edge of the village.

Former Blyth doctor: dies in Goderich DR, JOHN C, ROSS Dr, John C, Ross died July 5 at his residence, 96 West Street, Goderich at the age of 78. His death was sudden, He was born September 9, 1893 in Minto Township, Well- ington County, the son of Mal- colm Ross and Catherine Darr- och, Dr, Ross moved to Harriston when an infant, where he re- ceived his early education, He attended the University of Tor- onto oronto Faculty of Education and taught public school in Ontar- io and Saskatchewan for a few years. He enlisted in Saskatoon in January of 1916 with the 1st C, M. R, and served with the 8th Brigade, 3rd division in England, France and Belg- ium, He was discharged in June of 1919 with the rank of Lieutenant. On returning to Canada, he attended medical school at the University of Toronto from 1919 to 1924, interned at Stetson Hospital and German- town Hospital, Philadelphia, and practiced medicine in Blyth for a few years. He was married September 6, 1930 in Blyth to Annie Belle Taylor, Following his marr- iage, he spent a brief time in China as a medical miss- ionary but returned to Canada because of Mrs. Rossi illness, He practiced medicine in Palmerston for four and a half years and in Baden for 13 years, In December of 1949 he retired to Blyth be- cause of ill health. From May of 1951 until Septem- ber of 1954 he assisted Dr, W.

KROEZE . , , CUSTOMS.... In one of our North American church papers, "The Banner" we read some time ago about t customs and about the value of customs. When a certain act is repeated again and again by an individual person we call it a habit. When a whole community acts consistently in the same way it becomes a custom. "Custom is the unwritten law of -life"! - No one can tell - • exactly how some of our customs a rose, yet when a custom'< becomes one of our unwritten laws, we obediently conform to the "rule"., It is hard to break away from a custom once established - by ancient -,usage, Czar' Peter the Great discovered this when • he began to westernize: his great Russian domain: One 'of.the, old customs he despised and wanted to wipe out of existence was the wearing of those long beards by .the men .of -.Russia. That was a terrible blow ,to orthodox men, for, , the beard had been almost a religious symbol in Russia! Many customs originated from fear and, superstition. So for example our custom of "ground breaking". For many years the construction of domestic, civil, cr religious build- ings was preceded by a ceremony of ground breaking. How did this begin?One historian suggests it started because people in the Middle Ages took;•God's words to Adam,:"cursed be the earth for man1s -sake", to mean.that -the devil now makes his abode underneath the surface to the earth, By turning the. soil and reverently calling upon . the Lord to bless the beginning,: it was hoped the devil: would flee! -- Evidently"our. Lord Jesus ;Christ also : adhered to custom. Luke 4 16 in foims us, "And he -came to Nazareth, where he had been brought ups and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day." Joseph and Mary had reared Him that way, They not only attended worship service . regularly, at the synagogue, but we read, "They went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the passover, " Such customs are good! On each Lord's Day, Father and Mother should be able to say, "Here we are, Lard; we and the children thou hast given us!" Yes, our children also are easily accustomed to steady rules in the family, r A housefather told me, that last Sunday for some mina and invalid reason he and his family did not attend church. They broke the custom, But his little boy, five years old, found out that it was Sunday and asked, "Daddy, why didn't we go to church?" The father did not feel happy about it at all!

David Watson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Watson returned with them July the time to watch for garden damage. "A rose by any other name'' does not apply when it's a rose chafer or a lilac barer, spruce bud -worm or pine sawfly, Many garden insect are known by the plants they infest, and often the plant name is includ- ed in the insect's name, Some plants are bothered by more than one insect, The pine shoot moth prefers Scotch and Mugho Pine. So if you see small moths flying around your pine trees in July, it's likely the adult insects are ready to lay eggs, says Russ Gomme, hort- icultural specialist, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and rood, The eggs are laid on the tips of new growth. When the worms hatch they feed on the needles and bore into the new buds to overwinter. In the spring, they continue to feed on the buds, stunting and deforming the fol- iage, Pinching off and destroying .the affected buds in the spring helps control this insect, Dur- ing the next few weeks when the adults are laying eggs is also a good time to take con- trol measures, Spray the pine trees with the garden chemical "Carbaryl" (Sevin) for effect- ive control, Read the label on the container and follow direct- ions carefully, to Vancouver, B, C,,..where . . he will spend a couple of. weeks, Mrs. William Sholdice is a patient in the Clinton Hospit- al.

Vacation for house plants Before you go on vacation, give your house plants extra care, says Russ Gomme, horti- cultural specialist, Ontario Min- istry of Agriculture and Food, Select a shady spot in the gar- den arden for your house plants and bury them up to the pot rim in the garden soil, The addit- ion of peat moss or well -rotted manure to the surrounding soil will help maintain moisture, Water the ground and plants thoroughly just before leaving. African violets need special treatment indoors, Line a wood- en box with a sheet of plastic and fill it to the top with pe at moss, Place each African vio- let pot deep into the moss. Thor- oughly soak the peat moss, un- til it absorbs all the water it can hold, Do not have the pots sitting in water, Alternatively stand house bricks in a large pan of water with part of the bricks above water level, Place the flower pots on the bricks, The moisture will seep through the bricks to keep the plants moist, Personals Pastor Alfred Fry will show his coloured slides and speak on his trip to England at the July 31 meeting of the Auburn Horticult- ural Society to be held at 8:30 p. m, in the Community Memor- ial Hall.

Letter to the editor Stop that. littering Dear Sir: I was wondering if you could see your way clear to' give,us first, a few minutes of your time to read my letter and secondly, if you consider it worthwhile, space in your pap- er so that the general public can persue it and think about. it; then take some action to bring the problem to a success- ful conclusion, My story starts with the say- ing .that we often hear in the spring just when the snow has left, "Isn't everything so dirty, It sure will be nice when the grass starts to grow and greens up, and we get the spring rains to wash things down," Well the spring rains come, and the grass grows and greens, but there are some articles that the rains cannot wash away, -- a the grass doesn't grow tall enough to cover it and that is the litter that is so carelessly thrown a placed along our highways, picnic or park lands. Even if the grass does manage to cover it, there are people who keep adding to the litter year round, The Highway Traffic Act states that "Every person who throws or deposites a causes to be deposited any glass, nails, tacks or scraps of metal a any rubbish, refuse, waste a litter upon, along or adjac- ent to the highway, except in receptacles provided for the purpose, is guilty of an offence 'ittering on the highway." If a person is convicted of this offence, a sizeable fine can be imposed by the courts. A police office r can never be everywhere,' so it is up to the public to help their pol- ice force because a police force is only as good as the co- operation they receive from the public; A policeman is an em- ployee of the public, but like an employee, he must have the equipment to do the job and in _ his case, the mere information he can receive, the better the job can be done, In this case, we are not asking the public for information,but rather that they police them- selves and the members of their families, It's true that one little cigarette butt, one facial tissue, one pop can a one ice cream wrapper, just to mention a few articles, doesn't cover much area, but WOW! -- If everybody that uses our high- ways or parks dropped one little article what a mess it would be, If anyone cares to disagree with me, just stop and look around and ask the Ministry of Transportation and Communications or the Ministries of Natural Resources and Industry and Tourism how much garbage they collect and what it costs to pickup after the litter bugs have been there, People have always wanted to save money; well there is a case where we can save mill- ions, Sure the government pays for it, but doesn't it come from your pay cheques? -- and we can avoid pa yang fines, Who knows, if we all get on the band wagon and stop littering, the government :night just have the money to complete that n money to complete that worth- while project your comihunity wants and you :night have a• few extra dollars for your own pers- onal project. -- Yours truly, Prov. Const, H, A, Tighe, #4196, Public Information Co -Ordinator, No, 6 District, Newiiim'm e r Theatre in operation near: Grand Bend Theatre in a tent is featured at the new Huron Country Play- house where Two For The Seesaw plays this week. The colourful tent was erected last Saturday and serves as a 300 seat auditorium for the first professional summer . theatre company to be locat- ed in the Grand Bend area, Two For The Seesaw is the bittersweet comedy about two lonely people in New York City. Starring Terry Tweed and David Alexander, the direction is by Bathsheba Garnett and design by Dale Melsness. The show continues through Sunday evening. Seats are available for the remaining performances. -. Huron Country Playhouse is a "first" for the Grand Bend area. There have been numerous att- empts in the past, however, to establish theatre companies there, The presense of vast numbers of tourists and summer residents has been the influen- cing factor. The problem has always been in finding a suita- ble site, until, of course, the idea of locating the playhouse on a deserted farm was hit upon. The farm location is one that h proving very popular with the Playhouse audiences, and support has been even greater than expected. Indication of this was given at the opening night performance at which Managing Director James Mur- phy read the long list of Play-, house patrons .donars and Supp- esters, Among the `near capac- ity, audience which attended the opening night performance were residents of London;;. Goderich, . Stratford, Guelph, Sarnia, Pat Huron and Detroit. An opening night party was hosted by Dr, Gerald at the Menotta Menard Restaurant in Grand Bend. Rehearsals are now under way for The Paisley Convert- ible, the second show of the season. It stars Nancy Gustaf- son and David Clement with Terry Tweed, David Alexand- er and Joan Hanna. The Pais- ley Convertible, a new show from Broadway is about a bed- chesterfield - not a car. Its story is that of a young intern whose charming wife is obsess- ed with finding out what went on in his previous romances. It's a whacky comedy, too funny to be taken seriously and suggesting nonetheless that a little mystery in marr- iage is not a bad idea. Per- formances at the Playhouse are Wednesday through Sunday evenings at 9:00 Saturdays at 6:00 and 9:00, Playhouse reservations at 238-8387.

U.S. Westinghouse, investig- ating some severe accidents that involved employees travel- ling on business in rented cars, found there are 50 per cent more accidents in rental cars than in owner driven cars, Fact- ors believed to contribute to the accidents are: the renter may pick a car that's more powerful than his own car, or handles, brakes and performs differently from the car he is accustomed to. Also, the renter is tired, has just arrived in a strange town and'faces unfamiliar: roads on the way to the hotel, Company policy now calls for all employees who may drive a company -rented vehicle to grad- uate from the Defensive Driving Course, (DDC) which is taken on company time.

The champion is from Bulgar- ia and the challenger is from Zululand, 'The whole world is on the edge of its chair waiting to hear the results, Unfortunately, a hitch has developed before the match has even begun, The champ- ions, Boris Snarlakof is unhappy because he has been given the black men to'play with and he wants the Reds, The challeng- er, Charles Mumblebumble, also feels his position is weak- ened because he will not have Black Power on his side. But he is more upset because he will only receive nine million dollars for playing the match and he feels he is worth at least 12, After all, he points out, he has invested many hours in training since he was a little boy,:and'-besides he has . a wife and 12 hungry children at home to feed. ""Huh," quipped the champion, "Eef you had spent as many hours practising as you say, you would not have so many children. n The champion is a bachelor who, in the true Communist tradition, has de- voted his whole life to his work (except for two years in the salt mines of Siberia a couple of years back when he lost his championship to an American because -he was pinching the bottom of one of the usherett- es at the match instead of concentrating on the game). For a while, it appears that the match may be cancelled and billions of fans disappoint- ed, The challenger:is threat-' ening-to fly home,: while the . champion is sulking in a corn- . er: Finally,:; however, -a com--. promise is waked out by the Blyth Committee for Improv- • ing-World.Culture and Under- ' standing, .which has sponsored the event. Mumblebumble is allowed to have -his -family flown in on a special aircraft and kept, all expenses paid, at the Blyth Inn for the dur- ation of the competition, which is expected to last a year and a half. When the champion then became angry,. the committee too agreed to let hien have the red men. - The match begins. The champion is flanked . by - his top advisers who will help him plan his strategy, five gen- erals, a space scientist, and an.IBM computer. The chall- enger too, has his advisers, • three professors of mathemat- ics, -a professor of. psychology and a gypsy with a crystal ball. The match proceeds well with each competitor making one move every two hours, and ex- perts of the game remark how quickly'the game is grogressing, After only three hours, the game ground to -a halt however when the champion's computer blew a fuse. The champion was irate, "Why are not better facilities provided?"" he screamed. "Such Penage near Sudbury, Miss Kim McDowell is visit- ing with her grandparents, Mr, and Mrs, Jack Armstrong of Auburn, Mr, and Mrs, Jack Johnston and Cara of London visited on Sunday with Miss Janetta Snell, Visitors with Mr, Armand Mc- Burney on the weekend were Mr, and Mrs, John A, Gear and Marie of Waterloo and Mr, and Mrs, Dan Pillirg of Ham- ilton, Mr, and Mrs, John McDowell of London visited on the week- end with Mr, and Mrs, Garth Walden, Mrs, Jean Gear, Mrs, Ferne McDowell and Mrs, Evelyn Smith visited on Monday with Mrs, Norma Behrns and Mrs, - Ila Newton of Wroxeter, by Keith Roulston-. a thing would never happen in my country. You have thrown off my whole game, I may just go home, The Committee, however, managed to sooth his hurt feelings by installing a new electrical system to serve the computer, But the nct4. day the match did not cont- inue, The challenger comp- lained about the whirring noise the computer made which, he . said, prevented him from con-- centrating, A compromise was made when the computer was enclosed in a glassed -in, sound -proof room. The match went on but the challenger found himself in trouble, He let out a scream and began - jumping up and down on his - chair, beating his fists on the table, ,""It's unfair. It's unfair," he shouted. "How can I poss- ably have a chance? The light from the TV lights is so bright it reflects off my fort- une teller's crystal ball and she can't see a thing. I1 At this point, the champion toll the challenger he was a spoiled little Western imperia- list brat and the challenger hit him one across the chops. The champion hit back, using the riding whip of one of his generals. - The champion left quickly and his generals declared war Cm Zululand and dropped a hydrogen bomb on Blyth, wiping out the challenger, the - Committee -for Improving World Culture and Understand- ing, and 30, 000 people who had come to"watch the match. Isn't it wonderful how internat- ional competition can improve the chances for peace?

Photo by Harvey McDowell VINCENT-McDOUGA LL Baskets of pink gladiolii and white shasta daisies decorated the Londesboro United Church, when William Allen Vincent of Londesboro and Lana May McDougall of R, R,1, Auburn exchanged wedding vows on • July 8, 1972 at 3:30 p. m, The groom is the son of Mr, and Mrs, Clare Vincent of Londesbaro and the bride is the younger daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Norman McDougall, R. R,1, Auburn, Rev. Stanley McDonald officiated and the church organist, Mrs. Harry Lear played traditional wedd- ing music, Given in marriage by her father, the bride looked lovely in a floor -length gown of white peau de sole with empire waist, chantilly lace bodice, scallop- ed neckline and long chantilly lace lily -point sleeves. The scalloped lace train fell from the empire -waisted A-line skirt, The bottom of the dress was edged with lace, Her four tiered veil of nylon and silk illusion with scalloped edges was held in place by a crest of white blossoms, She carried a bouquet of pink and white sweetheart roses with white stephonatis, trailing ivy and long white ribbon. Mrs. Alan Caldwell, sister of the bride of Auburn was matron of honour. She wore a floor -length, empire -waisted dress of sheer pink butterfly over polyster crepe, featuring scooped neckline and long, sheer sleeves with long cuffs. Tiny pink rose buds were worn in her hair, She carried a nosegay of white shasta daisies with green fern and long pink ribbon. The bridesmaids, Miss Marie Plunkett of Auburn, friend of the bride and Miss Elaine Vincent of Kitchener, sister of the groom wore dresses identical to the matron of honour and carried •identic- al nosegays with tiny rosebuds in their hair, Mr. Alan Caldwell of Auburn, brother-in-law of the bride was groomsman and the ushers were Mr, Jim McDougall of Goderich, cousin of the bride and Mr, Joe Heffron of Strat- ford, friend of the groom, Following the ceremony a dinner was served at the Elni Haven Motor Hotel, Clinton where the bride's mother re- ceived the guests wearing a pink floral dress with a cor- sage of white carnations and white accessories. She was assisted by the groom's mother wearing a pink crimp- lene dress with a corsage of white carnations and white accessories. The three -tiered wedding cake trimmed with pink roses adorned the head table and was flanked with pink candles, For a wedding trip to parts of Northern Ontario, Colling- wood, Midland and Brace - bridge, the bride left wear- ing a yellow dress with white trim and white access- ories. The couple will reside in Goderich, Guests at the wedding were present from Auburn, Londes- boro, Blyth, Goderich, Strat- ford, Belgrave, Kitchener, Toronto and Mount Forest. Garden care reduces slug problem If garden insect pests are under control, but plant dam- age still occurs, it could be the work of slugs. The heavy dews and humid weather of August often encourages slug damage, says R,A. Fleming, horticultural specialist, Ont- ario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Slugs are soft -bodied, snail- like creatures that inhabit damp areas of the garden. They are night -feeders, hiding during the day in cool, damp places. The leaves of many vegetables and flowers, and to a lesser extent tomatoes, bean pods and potato tubers, are sus- ceptible to slug damage. Well -cared -for gardens are less likely to have problems with slugs. Cleaning up dead plants and leaves helps to eliminate hiding places. Cult- ivation and early morning wat- ering to allow the soil todry be- fore evening will also hinder slug activities. If the problem becomes severe, metaldehyde dusts, sprays or baits will give effective control. Two applications of metalde- hyde at 2 to 3 week intervals is recommended, Read the label on the container and follow directions carefully, GST HIP!! READ THE WANTADS Six young Blyth children last week, got. a. taste of boating when they took part ,in a week- long recreation program operated by Susan Street, ...The six, seen•here with Susan -on the pond at the Street residence, also took part in'painting, modelling asbestos, singing and rhythm band, finger painting and story -telling. The week ended on Friday when the child- ren entertained their mothers at a puppet show with puppets they created themselves, Precautions. to prevent insect stings Most people recover quickly from an insect sting. For a few people, however, a sting by a honeybee, bumble- bee or wasp can be as fatal as a snake bite. Simple precaut- ions will help ensure that you don't become a victim, says Professor P. W. Burke, Environ- mental Biology Department, University of Guelph. Remember that these sting- ing insects will be more pre- valent in picnic areas or around flower beds, When working in such an area, use an insect repellent or wear protective clothing. Avoid hairdressings or per- fumes with floral scents, Wear light coloured clothing, Dark clothing attracts and irritates these insect, Always move slowly around the insects and their nests, Quick motion and air move- ment will excite them. One thing to remember is that the insects become less active as the day becornes darker and cooler, If you are stung by an insect that leaves a noticeable sting- er, do not attempt to pluck it out. This will only force the remaining venom into the system. Instead use an object, e ven a fingernail, to scrape the stinger away, ""Tame"" honeybees are the only ones that leave their stinger behind, The insects do not, If you do get stung, an application of baking soda mixed with water to form a paste will help to relieve the pain. If there are other symptoms, such as shortness of breath, choking or marked swell- ing, go to a hospital as quickly as possible. In such cases, a short period of time can be critical, Adrenalin may be necessary to combat the venom. Tab- lets containing Isuprel are a new innovation, When placed under the tongue, they will effectively combat the ill effects. The best policy at all times is to go out of your way to avoid contact with stinging insects. 1 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Stewart's Red U White Food Mkt. Blyth: Ont .

I've mentioned this before, but of recent years there seems to be a feverish desire to "get back to the land," There are many aspects of this, of course, There is the young people's deter- mination to get away from it all: the pollution, the commercialism, the mate- rialism — and live a simple life, close to nature, com- munal sharing, organic foods grown with their own pink little materialistic hands, and so on, This usually ends in fail- ure, Not because they don't 'mean well, but because they simply don't have a clue - about the land. Most of them are the products of middle-class life, and when it comes to doing some- thing, they can't do any- thing, They can't milk a cow, They can't nail two boards together without making a hand sandwich, They're used to staying up all.night and sleeping all day, and the land doesn't go for that, And they don't realize that among every group of peo- ple who live at close quar- ters, there is at least one coward, one rotter who can't eat turnips, and one who should have been born a pig, These things lead to a certain amount of disil- lusion, Oh, they have serious meetings, and they set up committees, and they study their navels. But it usually winds up the same,. Mervyn, who is a slight, ephemeral poet, winds up chopping all the firewood, along with his foot, George, the vital, hairy, press -on type, likes to sleep until 11 a,m, and complains for the rest of the day about the food, Sylvia, the frail and fragile folk -singer, carries eight buckets of water and feeds the pig (they always have one pig), And Voluptua, strong as a bull, gets up late, demands coffee, strums her guitar, and complains about the bugs, Myrtle, who dropped out of university because life was so "irrelevant", winds up doing all the dirty dishes. John, the third -year drop-out from architecture, is given the job of building a backhouse. With compass and calipers, he lays it all out, He even digs the hole, He completes the building, the grand unveiling takes place, and it is discovered that the hole is three feet wider than the structure, Peggy, the drop-out oceanographer, is put in charge of the water supply, There is a well, though slightly decrepit and full of frogs and snakes. With com- mendable courage, she dumps a quart of potassium cyanide in the well, It is not well done, and for the next month, they walk three miles to the nearest farmer's for fresh water, And so on, TI-1EBLYTN STANDARD, July26,,1972, PC.15, The outhouse and other schemes This is just a sample and I'm not knocking it, These people are learning some- thing besides writing essays, demonstrating against prac- tically everything, and smoking pot, Eventually, Cyril will discover that you can't milk a dry cow, Janice will learn that if you pick up a long-tailed, sweet little kitten, you might get a shot of exotic perfume, Good for them all, Then there's the other type of back-to-the-landers, They are new immigrants. Europeans who wouldn't have had a hope of owning some land in the old coun- try. They will buy practical- ly anything, as long as. it's land, They form a syndicate of families, move in, work like dogs, They live in the city because that's where their skills are, ' But when they attack a piece of the land, they move, Everybody. works, There's a stone mason or two, a carpenter, a roofer, a plumber, an elec- trician, and a farmer. They are used to the big - family, communal life; Within weeks, they have everything working. They'll have a cow that's not only milking, but producing a calf, They'll have a sow that's going to deliver six- teen piglets. They'll have hens that are laying, Their women can produce a huge pot of something out of nothing. Kids happy, mos- quitoe-scarred and every- where. Bless them, And then there's the third type, like a couple of colleagues of mine, A few weeks ago they bought 100 acres of - uh — land; Mind you, there was a house on it, and a barn, One is a Doctor of Philo- sophy, whose thesis was on Wordsworth's Influence on 19th Century Political Thought, The other is a civil engineer, who is extremely uncivil when he has to do any engineering, He has been known to tear off a screen door when he couldn't get it to fit, and has been heard by reliable witnesses to attack the fur- nace with a shovel and ap- propriate language, when it wasn't working satisfac- torily, They've both been work- ing like maniacs, They tore all the shingles off the side of the old log house and ap- parently put them on the roof, They . have to walk only three-quarters of a mile to get to the homestead, Their only real problem now is to build a bridge across a stream, for access to the property, and then a half -mile road to the farm- house, - I would cross a bridge built by my civil engineer friend only with water - wings, And 1 would drive up a road built by the Doctor only with a helicopter, However, it takes all kinds, And I did promise to come up and cook for them for a few days, They are living on beans, out of the can, Per- haps a good steak and a" salad might drive them on to greater and worse efforts, while I sit on the porch, with gin and tonic, directing some of their more incred- ible efforts, Annuals can bloom again in the fall Some of the annual plants set out in late May and early June are beginning to look tired about this time of year. Many of them are starting to set seed. But with a little extra care, many of these annuals can be rejuvenated for a September show of colour, says R. A. Fleming, horticultural spec- ialist, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food, Plants such as alyssum, ageratum, annual phlox and petunias should be cut back quite severely, This farces plants to branch out from the base and provides a longer display of color, Tall plants such as calendula, snapdragon and early salvia should have the old flowers removed so they will start to form new blooms, Some trimming back, the addition of plant food and thorough waterings during dry spells will bring annuald into bloom again in the early fall garden, G00 FD�D eIE7TRPRCES Maxwell House Instant Coffee 6 oz. jar $1.25 Swing OrangeCrystaIS 5-31/2 oz. pkgs. 69if, St. William's Assorted Jams Aylmer Tomato catsup Aylmer Cho ice Cream Corn Aylmer Choice Peas York Smooth 4-9 oz. jars $1,00 15 oz. bottle 4-14 oz, tins 4-14 oz. tins Peanut Butter 32 oz. jar Velvet Flour 2 lb. extra, 9 Ib. bag Treesweet Orange Juice Treesweet Blended Juice Ocean Spray Cohoe Salmon 48 oz. tin 48 oz. tin 7 1/2 oz. tin 33( 85¢ 85¢ 996 79¢ 490 490 590 Facelle Royale Bathroom Tissue 2-2 roll pkg. 690 King Size Tide Detergent Ivory Liquid Detergent Christie's Coffee Break, Chips Ahoy & Crameo Cookies pkg. 59e Hostess Angel Food Cake Weston's Cinnamon Butter Hornes Weston's Swiss Rolis W itt ich's' Cakes 490: Radishes or Green Onions „,_ 2 bunches 23 pkg. $1.59 32 oz. bottle 83� Reg. 79¢, now 591: 39¢ 39S Home Grown Cor_ n New Potatoes Ontario No. 1 doz. 69e: 10 ib. 6g0: Serving you better -saving you more 5 years ago July 19, 1967.

Goodfellow, Blyth firemen answered a call to Hullett Township on Tuesday evening when a pile of cedar rails on a vacant farm owned by Leonard Archambault caught fire, The stubborn flames were brought under control and damage was kept to a minimum, Officials of the United Church in Blyth are busy planning for a caner stone laying ceremony which will be held shortly, Members of Auburn Teenville met at the Community Hall to elect their officers for the com- ing fall term. They are: Shirley Brown, president; Edgar Leath- erland, vice-president; Susan Straughan, secretary; Bill Straughan, treasurer; Harvey Snell, social convenor. 20 years ago July 23, 1952, Returning to Blyth Just at dusk last Thursday evening, Mr. Ar- nold Berthot, accompanied by Donald and Leonard Kelly were startled to meet a little lassie on a tricycle, headed toward Londesbcro at top speed. Just as they passed, the Kelly boys recognized the little lady as Dianne Seiling, of Blyth. They had met Dianne just rounding Bob McClinchey's corner on No, 4 highway, Mr, Berthot did not stop, but in- creased his speed, and sped to the Seiling home in Blyth where no one was aware of Diane's flight, Her grand- father joined Mr, Berthot and they raced back, but they found that Dianne was a tricy- clist of some note, By the time they caught her she had reach- ed the crossing point of No. 4 Highway and the 13th concess- ion of Hullett, a distance of over a mile, Mr, Seiling in- quired where whe was going;, and Dianne replied that she was going to visit her auntie, Mrs, Murray East, who lives 2 miles this side of Clinton, Barring an accident, Dianne would undoubtedly have est- ablished a new mark for tri- cycle riders to shoot at, Former members of the Blyth Lions Club Boys, and Girls Band, augmented by several musicians from the. Clinton and Goderich area, created 'a mild sensation in the village Monday night as they pulled a surprise parade demonstration through the village and up to the ball park where the girls were play- ing ball, 30 years ago July 15, 1942.

In recent years some damage , was done by a leaky roof on the Hall,' but the tour by the two groups on Monday. night • showed that the theatreris basicly in good shape and the use 'of new paint and new cur= tains for the stage will make a great difference in the app- earance of the building. The project will cost several hun- dred dollars, however, and it is felt that public subscript- ion would be better than add- ing more burden to the tax bill, Volunteer labour will also be used in the project and everyone, whether young or old, is asked to help out at the, first work night, Tuesday night, August 8, One of the first functions to be held in the renovated theatre will be a fashion show and con- cert on September19, Sponsor- ed by the Board of Trade, the show will be a part of this year's Blyth Fall Fair and will feature the Queen of the Fair competition as well as local talent and fashions from two local stores, It has also been suggested that a committee be setup to plan activities far everyone from teenagers to senior citizens, which would keep the theatre in operation year-round, Further action on the future use of the building, however, will be left until the renovat- ion'project is completed, Your opinions needed ;Usually a newspaper serves as a medium for distributing inform- ation from news sources to the people in general. This week, The Standard is trying to gather. information from you, the read- er so we can improve our news- paper and perhaps our town. This week's Standard contains a survey form which we hope you will take the time to fill out and send in to us. One part of the form deals with your opinions of The Standard and what you would like to see 'in it..The infcrmation request- ed in this part is vital to us in planning far the fall issues of the newspaper. Only by know ing what you want, can we make this newspaper effective, The other section of the sur- vey deals with shopping habits and facilities you feel are needed in Blyth. Too often in small towns there is little in- formation available about where and why people shop, and what facilities are needed, This information will be available to the Blyth Board of Trade and the Blyth Industrial Committee so that they can use the inform- ation in helping to provide better service for shoppers and perhaps in attracting new bus- inesses to Blyth In the past, the readers of The Standard have done a great deal to help improve the paper and the town. It is hoped they will help again by taking a few minutes to fill out the survey and send a bring it in. Those sending in the survey will be anonymous. Editor ial Let's all pitch in ,f it accomplishes nothing more all year, the Blyth Board of Trade under the leadership of President Helen Gowing will have done the community a great service by getting the Board of Trade and the Blyth Recreation Committee together Monday. night to discuss renovation of the theatre in Memorial Hall. Many people have spoken of the need to renovate the theatre, but until now, no one had managed to get the interested parties together in one place and start the ball rolling. The Recreation C ommittee too is to be congratulated on its willingness to back the project even though it is often hard-pressed for funds. But even with these two bodies behind the project, the help of the rest of the community is still required. Donations are needed to help buy the paint and varnish required and to pay for new curtains for the stage and the windows. And a good, deal of volunteer labour is required to put the theatre in shape. Why is it important that the theatre get back into operation? For one thing, it is the best theatre in the area and its a crime not to have it in use, For another, the theatre can provide great opportunities for entertainment and education for young, old, and in between. It can serve to bring the community together and develop a community pride and culture, It can help our young people who may have dramatic or musical talent to devel- op this talent Let's prove the community spirit is still in Blyth by turning out Tuesday night with brooms and vaccuum cleaners, buckets and clothes to get the hall in shape and ready for painting, If you I can't come, at least send in a donation. Remedy for a hot day David Leibold, son of Dr. and Mrs. Rudy Leibold of Blyth, knew just what business to get into this weelewhen the weather turned hot again. He turned his wagon into a mobile refreshment stand and brought relief to thirsty Blyth shoppers with his cold drinks on Monday afternoon.

They are the first of the sever- al industries that Rodoma has lured to the old base and Fred Ginn, of Rodoma said that u a half dozen others had been signed up" and would be mov- ing in as soon as the subdivision plan for Vanastra was approved. Vice-president and general manager of Barton Tubes, B.C. McLeod said that their Burling- ton plant was crowded and they needed more room to expand. IT his is just the ideal situation," he said. Plant manager T. W. Istrati said that he would be hiring 10 local people almost immediat- ely and said there was no limit' on Barton's expansion plans. Huron Acoustic of Toronto has also signed a lease and will be moving their whole operation Ifrom Toronto to Clinton by September.
