The Blyth Standard, 1973-02-21, Page 1VOLUME 83 No, 8 T Wednesday, February 21, 1973, 15¢ at counter e good old days were never like this It'used to be hard to get people inside the old Huron County jail house in Goder- ich. However when an open house was called on Sunday, thousands lined up and waited for over an hour in freezing temperatures to see inside the old stone walls, The jail has been the centre of controversy recently because of a plan by the town of Goderich to turn it into a museum and another plan by the county, • Replacement for defunct fair sought The Blyth Board of Trade moved _Monday night to co-op- erate with the Blyth Agricult- ural Society in finding a repl- acement for the Blyth Fall Fair, The Agricultural Society directors voted last month to discontinue the fair at least for this year. Murray Scott and Ray Hanna, representatives of the Society at the meeting Mon- day night reintcrated that the fair is dead and any action taken would be to find another comm- unity activity to replace it.- Mr. Scott said the 4H achievement day for Blyth 4H clubs is being planned anyway and this could be part of a community day'if interest was shown by other groups. The Board of Trade agreed ,to take the initiative in cont- acting other service clubs and organizations in Blyth to see if they would be interested in taking part in such a community event, Several ideas for such a community event were discus- sed such as a street dance, tal- ent contest and baby contest, but nothing definite will be .agreed to until after represent- atives of all clubs meet later. It was discussed that each group could look after a specific event at the event which would be geared toward the local comm- unity. The event would be based on community particip- ation. W.

The move was made at the February meeting of council held at the clerk's home on Feb. 6, • Council made the decision because it_felt the program had not been at all effective in the past few years. It will now be the respobsibility of individual emus to have their cattle reated for warble flies if they .eel it is necessary. Council also setsalaries for > the coining year at the regular meeting.

Ken Scott of Auburn was named the township's repres- entative on the Auburn hall board and Harold Errington was named to the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority for a two-year term. A delegation comprised of Aubrey Higgins, Graham' Mc- Nee and John Errington were present with objections to the present plan for Dungannon Drain Number 2., Engineer Doug Gramsby of the firm of Granby, Mannerow Ltd. of Guelph was present at the meeting and talked with the gentlemen to learn their complaints. He promised to investigate, He also discussed the Forster and Durnin drains. owners of the building, to tear down one wall to expand the regional assessment office next door, About 300 persons were most unhappy when the doors were closed at 5 p. in. on schedule after they had waited in the cold for more than an hour, County officials had not expected the huge crowds, It was announced Tuesday that the walls will not be torn down until after April 1 at least. Fire leaves Last weeks sub -zero weather in- directly contributed to the loss of a hone by an Auburn -area fam- ily on Friday. The cold weather froze water pipes in the home of Martinus Bakker, R.R. 3, Auburn over- night and Blyth plumber Lyle Youngblut was called to help thaw them. Mr. Bakker and Mr. Youngblut were working in the basement when they took a bleak for coffee. They smelled smoke minutes later family homeless after sparks from the torch they had been using to thaw the pipes apparently started a fire. The Blyth fire department answered the call shortly before noon but they too had trouble with the cold which had frozen some of their equipment. Chief Irvine Bowes said about 10 min- utes time was lost as the crew tried to loosen valves with the use of torches and crowbars.

' All three parties kicked off their campaign with extensive advertising campaigns this week but only the Liberals felt the value of reaching voters in the northern parts of McKillop and Hullett townships. Although Blyth itself is not included in the Huron riding, a large number of people to the south of the village who are in the riding count on The Standard to keep thein in touch with the happenings of the county. To serve these readers The Standard covered all three political party nominations this week. Only the Liberal party, however, decided to use The Stand- ard to reach the voters.

The fire however spread rapidly through the walls to the attic of the house and firemen were un- able to save the structure. Fire- men were pulled back for a short period when a wall coll- apsed, but on one was injured. The Bakker's have moved what belongings were saved into a vacant home where they will live until their home can be rebuilt. Blyth student wins honourE. in U.S. Richard W.

The announcement of the indoor mall with parking for more than 700 cars (more than enough parking to accomodate every car in Birth) leaves three alternatives far Blyth merch- ants and munic.pal officials. They can ignore the mall and underestimate its impact on Blyth; they can ii.throw up their hands in panic and say it's too big a project to fight, or they can get off their rear ends and make Blyth into a shopp- ing community that can compete with the shopping mall and with other surrounding towns who have also over the years taken a greater and greater share of the shopping dollar away from Blyth merchants, If either of the first two alternatives are taken, Blyth could be in the ironic situation of drawing people all the way from Kitchener, London and Stratford to shop in two of its stores while other businesses are going broke because they cannot even attract the business of those who live right in town. The only real choice is the third one. It means merchants have got to take a look at their businesses and change what needs to be changed. It means it will no longer be alright to sit back and take what business comes in the door. Any merchants who does not want to give better service, expand his stock and promote his business might as well sell out to someone who does or start planning what to do when he goes bankrupt. Let's face it, merchants can harp about people shopping at home, all they want, but why should someone shop at home if they can go somewhere else and get better selection, better prices and better service. Merchants don't have' a right to the business of the people of their community: they must earn it. Some of the merchants in Blyth have been very progressive. They have modern stores and good stocks and they do a good job of promotion. But others have not changed their buildings or business practices in the past 20 years. Not only are they endangering their own future, they are endangering the future of the town, While city stores have been extending their hours longer and longer in the past few years stores here in Blyth (and other nearby towns as well) have been cutting back on the number of hours they are open. With a shopping • centre in the wings that will be open everyday of the week and probably two nights a week, can this policy continue? It is the nature of the people of Huron County to resist change, but change is being forced upon us. We either change or. die. But not only must local merchants look at their operations to see where they can be improved, but we must make • every attempt to bring in new business to make this a better shopping centre. A survey conducted by The Standard last summer showed a good number`; of people in our readership area did their shopping elsewhere. Many felt the need for new shopping facilities here. It seeins to this newspaper that every group in town from the Board of Trade to the town council must become active in encouraging retail firms to locate here if we are to re- main competitive. It is no good for town council to say, as one councillor did when he was running for election, that council should stay out of the matter because if the market is here business . will locate here. We must help people from outside the community see that there is a market here for their business. If people in Blyth don't take this challenge to our future seriously, we may not have too much- future to worry about. If, on the other hand, everyone concerned takes action to compete with this threat, it could be the best thing to ever • happen to Blyth. Fairness works both ways Representatives from the Consumer's Association of Canada appeared before the National Farm Products Marketing council last week and protested proposals to set up a quota system for turkey production in Canada. The CAC claimed it is time to rethink the logic behind marketing boards whose "single outstanding goal (is) the establishment and maintenance of product price level which exceeds the average of prices which would provail in the board's absence," It said quotas shield producers "from the pressures of the Canadians market place". Who makes up the CAC? We'd be willing to bet it includes: 1. Teachers or wives of teachers who have banded together in recent years to bargain collectively and.even strike if necess- ary to gain their wage demands, no matter how much it costs the taxpayer, 2. Workers or wives of workers who belong to unions which not only have the right to strike, but have closed ship agree- ments which make it necessary for someone working in a factory to belong to the union whether he wants to or not, 3. Doctors or doctors wives who not only are protected through legislation from having too many doctors around but also are guaranteed payment for every patient they can treat through medicare. It seems it is fair for all these groups to be shielded in the market place but not for the farmers. The CAC says it would rather see subsidies than quotas. Well the farmer is tired of handouts and the smug attitude urban doctors, teach- ers and union men have toward them because they get subsidies. The time has come for the farmer to get what he deserves for his produce and if quotas are what it takes, then bully for quotas. YER MUST BE THE'APPIEST NO WOMAN IN THE WORLD RUBE^ NOW 1ER KNOW 'OW TO LA`LhM OUT I WAS THROWIN' SO MANY PUNCHES, T. DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE DID ITS TCH� 1•: 01. 0211 doe /or 1 is Behin� no Scenes By Keith Roulston There is a phenominum in the newspaper business dreaded by all reporters. It's called the banquet circuit, Nearly every organization has at least one banquet a year at which there is a guest speaker. Reporters go to these meetings to hear the speaker and report the happenings of the event. However often in large centres or at certain times of the year in smaller towns, a reporter can be in a situation where he has to go out on three, four or even five evenings in a row to dinners, With this constant diet of mashed potatoes, roast turkey or beef and frozen peas with pie at the end the poor guy can end up having nightmares before the week is out, no matter how good the cooks may be. Last week I learned of some- thing ome- thing that puts the banquet circuit to shame for pure horr- or. All three political parties in Huron riding held their nom- inating meetings last week and after going to all three meetings and listening to politicians from all three parties I can expertly say that a constant diet of tur- key beats a constant diet of balognd any day. Really, by the time the last meeting was over on Friday night, I was seriously thinking about getting into some other line of business where one can ignore politics, politicians and • those weird monstrosities called • the :"party faithful". One gets more than a little tired of hearing big -wig polit- icians playing with the ideas and emotions of ordinary people for their own gain. It doesn't seem to matter what is the right course for the country, only what will win or keep power. After seeing the "party faithful" of all three parties at close range one wonders if there is some sort of law that. says one can never use his brain again if he signs a party membership card. People swallowed even the worst perversions of the truth and rewarded the speaker who made the comments with long and loud applause. Already before the election campaign really begins it appears to be going to be a very dirty campaign. Mr. Lewis and Mr. Nixon led off earlier in the week with blasts at the govern- ment, Their attacks were dir- ected at the government as a whole or Premier Davis in most cases, however, and they seemed to stay scrupulously clear of casting aspersions on Charlie MacNaughton, the former member for Huron or Dr. Potter the ailing Minister of Health. Mr. MacNaughton, however did riot return the compliment. He accused both Mr. Lewis and Mr. Nixon of deliberately mis- leading the public. Mr. South- c9tt joined his old boss in the condemnation as did Bob Eaton, Conservative member for Mid- dlesex South. Bob McKinley let off a diatribe against Prime Minister Trudeau too, as if the guy didn't have enough trouble on the federal scene without being dragged into provincial election campaigns too. Still, if you could wade through the ever-growing pile of mud that was slung by every- one in sight, there were some humourous moments...like Mayor Don Symons of Clinton in his speech for the Liberal nomination making a slip and saying "we in Clinton" instead of "we in Huron" and blowing all chances of the nomination on the spot. There was Mr. Southcott blasting the opposition for twisting the facts at one point then going on to say there were 900 people at the Conservative nomination, when janitors had already told the press they had set up only 650 seats and there were perhaps two dozen more people than there were seats. There was Mr. MacNaughton saying that the federal govern- ment had foisted the present medicare system on the people of Ontario and they were to blame for its problems then Mr. Southcott getting up mom- ents later to say opposition parties know that Ontario has the best health care delivery system in the world (was he giving that credit to the federal government?). And there was the membership of the Conservative nomination meeting first cheering as Mr. MacNaughton defended saying Mr. Davis was not the arrogant, distant leader the opposition made him out to be, then cheering as Mr. McKinley branded Prime Minister Trudeau with the Seine • adjectives. Small humour' maybe, but wlien a reporter is as desperate as this'one was after three pot= icitical meetings in one week, any smile is something to be thankful for.

We all have to stand up and, be counted sometime, even though we manage to duck out of it until the last trumpet sounds, People who express their honest opinions are not always popular, but I never aimed for that, so here goes, My opinions on some of the burning issues of the day. Open winters. I'm in favour of them. We've had a beauty this winter, with only a few cold snaps, only a few feet of snow, a peachy January thaw, and lots of sun. I'd like to say my heart goes out to the skiers and snowmobilers, but it would be a lie; I don't care if their snowmobiles sit in the back yard and rust, or if their skis warp into pretzels, I_ have normally moved about twelve feet of snow from one place to another by this time of winter, This year I've moved only about three feet, and I'll settle for that, Men's clothing. Modern trends nauseate me, There's nothing in the stores but yel- low and purple shirts, hide- ous ties thtlt would go with nothing except a wino's eyes., and checkered pants with a flared bottom, What ever happened to the white shirt, the modest single -shade tie, and the well -cut gray flannels? Most of all, I hate those great fat ties, They're about four inches wide and made of stuff as thick as a great- coat, Trying to tie one in an elegant knot is about as easy as trying to lace your shoes with half-inch rope, Nieces and nephews, I'm all for them. We had some of ours for the weekend and it was a delight to see their minds and talents develop- ing. Jennie and Sue played a ripping flute duet, as well as their piano pieces, Little Steven spent the weekend chasing our cat, who was just as anxious to avoid his caresses as he was to give them. Finally, in perplexity, he said, "Hey, Uncle Bill, do you know what kind of cat this is'?" I muttered some- thing vague. "She's a scaredy-cat" he stated triumphantly, Toilets and tires, It never fails, but they do, nearly always when you're expect- ing guests and need both, Saturday morning, .armed with huge shopping list, went out and found a flat tire. The garageman raisedhis eyes when he had to clamber over two loaded golf carts to get at my spare, in February.

Scott's background is mainly Irish and he has deep blue eyes, brown "hair and medium complexion. Ile is small for his age, looking more like a four-year-old. Scott was born prematurely and hasn't caught up with the average child his age. Maybe he won't,'but on the other hand, he has made notable gains lately.' ile has been'attending primary school in a school for the retarded, but recent tests indicate he. will be able to move into regular school next year. Ile is•eager to learn and has a good memory. Scott has a history of epileptic seizures but these have diminished greatly in a foster home where he receives excellent care and where his medication is never forgotten. Ile had only two seizures last year and his medical report states they are now under control. A loving, lovable child whose'general health is splendid, Scott is happy, good-natured and playful. Ile goes around the house singing and likes listening to music. ile is fond of drawing and coloring and though his attention span is sometimes- short, he concentrates on paper and crayons for long periods. Building toys are also among Scott's favorites and he likes to play on slides and swings. Scott needs an affectionate, relaxed home with parents who will provide stimulation and will not worry over his medical history. There should be no other children close to him in age.

Bill tells it like people on deck, the toilet blocked, No plumbers available, • Now that we've dealt with major issues, let's take a look at the minor ones. A great deal of ink and hot air is being squandered these days on two of them: the Montreal Olympics and capital punishment. I'm against them both, First, the Olympics: Isn't it rather significant that the last two Olympics have been held in the countries with the most booming economies in the world, Japan and Ger- many? Maybe they could afford them, Canada, in my opinion, cannot, Our population is too small, and our national debt too big, to take on an interna- tional extravaganza noted chiefly for its bickering and back-biting, Not to mention murder in Mexico and Munich, Who needs the Olympics, anyway? It's a great spec- tacle, but so were the Roman games, with their chariot races, throwing lions to the Christians, and such thrilling events. Canada needs the Olym- pics about as much as it needs another set of Rockies. And they'd cost about the same, and be of as much use, The chief difference is that the Rockies remain, and we can look at them. The Olym- pics will be here today, gone tomorrow, with nothing to show for it but a big, fat bill. We had our day, with Expo, We showed the world that we could put on a really big show. And we're still paying interest on the money Mayor Drapeau diddled out of the federal government for that one, You don't see Britain or France or even the U,S, scrambling to get the summer games, They can't afford 'em, Nor can we, Prime Minister Trudeau has said that Montreal will not get more than a token support from the Federal government. That is so much you -know -what. There are ways and means and the wily M. Drapeau knows all of them, and some that haven't been thunk up yet. And the whole concept of amateurism is an interna- tional laueh, what with it is totalitarian countries employing their best athletes in the armed forces, where they can train all year round, It's probablytoo late to stop the juggernaut, but it's' not too late to throw some sand in the wheels, If the citizens of greater Montreal were told that they, personally, had to foot the bills for the games, M. Drapeau would probably wind up at the bottom of the St. Lawrence River, with all the other sewage dumped in it, Oh, yep.

LAWRIE DECORATING BLYTH, ONTARIO PHONE 523.4525 the year of the rotary ... MAZDA Join the youth movement. The rotary engine cars are where the action is, And now you can get started in three new young rotary performers: The RX -3 Coype, or Wagon, or Sedan. You can hang in there with either an automatic or manual shift, The speed stick makes it fun. While the automatic makes it easy. The decision rests in your hands. But rest easy. Both come with the rotary engine. Or perhaps we should say go. Driving the rotary engine is the closest thing on earth to flying. It is uncannily quick and quiet and vibration free. You don't have to worry about pistons, valves, rods or cams, either. There aren't any. Rather, two rotors simply and smoothly spin out the power. Some power. Unlike pistons in a conventional engine, which use connecting rods to transmit power to the crankshaft, the rotors run directly on an eccentric shalt. Torque output comes from this shaft. As the rotors make one rotation, the eccen- tric shaft turns three times. But as the pistons in a four-stroke conventional engine complete their cycle, the crankshaft turns two times. And of those two, only one produces the power to drive the car. While all three turns of the ec- centric shaft in the rotary engine produce this power three times, Quicker acceleration is the happy result. Mazda has fewer parts to service, too. About all you have to do is to change the spark plugs and oil, and clean the air filter once in a while.

KROEZE PAY UP In the February issue of the evangelistic monthly, "The Way" we found a brief article, "God Loves Me?" whereby the writer explains the truth, that Jesus paid the penalty for sin and that this really is the "Good News". Ever remember the time when the policeman stopped you and asked to see your drivers license? You had just made an illegal turn. You felt nervous. Even sorry. But you still ended up with a ticket and had to report to"the police station. It was a sixteen dollar •fine, , . Suppose you say to qthe judge, "IPm short of money this month but tell you what I'll do. I111 attend church every Sunday for the next two months." "Well, that's a wonderful idea, sir", he would say, "but that is not the penalty!" "Okay, I'll try to be a better husband; P11 take special care of my children." So the judge says, "You're a noble man. There is always need to improve family relationships, but the penalty is sixteen dollars." The only thing that would satisfy him was $16. That was the penalty. The good life, church attendance won't satisfy. Either you or someone else must pay. God says the penalty for sin is death. Every man-made sol- ution, however noble, is no payment. Either you must pay it or someone must step up and pay it for you. That's just the way it is. Here's good news! That's precisely what happened.

MacNaughton used the occasion • of the Progressive Conservative nomination for the March 15 by-election in Huron to attack statements made by the two leaders at the nominations of their two parties earlier•; last week. He claimed he had never referred to the. opposition in 15 years of politicing but since he was 'not running this time - he could change' his policy. He said the two men were being irresponsible, "These facts are a not true", he said. "I was there", He referred to the statement of Mr. Lewis that Premier Davis' government .Was distant from the- pe,ople. "They know the lengths `Bill Davis has gone to to 'open up government to the people", Mr. MacNaughton said. • Referring to health- care costs . Mr. MacNaughton said the pre- sent health care system was forced on Ontario -by the Fed- eral government and it was .not unnatural for costs to rise under the federal system. He said 'under- the cost saving structure Ontario was a net' loser with, Ontario taxpayers helping to• •pay the cost of the program for ,other provinces.. "He- said the provincial gov- !ernment had known about abuses of the health care. 'system J y some doctors six to eight _months ago. He told party faithful that khey would be hearing some Ilatant •mistate ments -during, the ;campaign and to take., them' With a grain of salt. Remarking ".on his decision to retire, Mr. MacNaughton Said, "it took some thinking • ;and quiet contemplating". •1 -Ie said after 15 years he ;found it hard to be "as con- temporary as I should be" and that he felt- he should , step aside for younger people ;coming along. It is time for someone' else to represent Huron, he. said, B I T. ilan$ TO:ad Readings for parts in. the first play to be produced by the Blyth Little Theatre will • take place on March 5.

Robert McKinley (left) and Charles MacNaughton congrat- ulate Don Southcott seconds after he was announced first ballot victor for the Conservative party nomination in • the upcoming March 15 by-election in Huron. Mr. Mac - Naughton, the retired member for Huron spoke at the meeting and blasted the Liberals and New Democrats for statements made by their party leaders earlier in the week. About 700 persons attended the meeting in Clinton. Southcott sweeps Conservative candidacy Don Southcott, former exec- utive assistant to Charles Mac - Naughton was expected to win the Progressive Conservative nomination for the March 15 by-election in Huron, but he won even more easily than most expected Friday night in Clinton. About 700. Conservative dele- gates and supporters filled Central Huron Secondary School auditorium to capacity for the nomination and to pay tribute. to Mr. MacNaughton. When • the vote . came after lengthy process, set up for the approx.-7 imately 300 voting delegates " it was an overwhelming first ballot victory for Southcott, 212 votes to' 35 for 'Bert' " • • • Such, ; Goderich chiropractor, 29 for Betty Cardno, from Sea- forth and' 14 for William Dale, • former Hullett township reeve ` and' warden of Huron.' In his speech Mr. Southcott ; had told the crowd he believed in the, right• of the individual • band that government should not: do what people can •do for • themselves. " He said his ,experience. in • the past. five years as Mr. MacNaughton's assistant would 'help him tell Huron's story at Queen's Park. He said Huron must continue to• do its plann- ing. He said more of the decision-making power must be returned to the local level and said Huron must preserve its identity. "I believe we can create an effective regional government within Huron's 'present bound- aries," he'said. He told the audience that he wanted to come home to Huron "to work for you and with you". Mr. Scu thcott was formerly a •esident of Huron and a co - publisher of the Exeter Times - Advocate newspaper but moved out of the county to run a Stratford newspaper and later to be Mr. MacNaughton's assistant. It was evident from the moment of his nomination he would be impossible to beat. He was nominated by Goderich lawyer, James Donnely and seconded by Stanley township farmer Anson McKinley, two ofthe most powerful political figures within the party. After his ..plecton,; as• cand• - te!. Mr. ,S outlicott R blasted :,comments..,of Liberal leader. Robert Nixon made the night before in Hensall at the Lib- eral nomination meeting. He Persona I SDealing Some of those who visited tvith Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Walden were Mrs. Gordon Smith and: Douglas, Mrs. Barbria Vogl, Mr. and Mrs. John McDowell and Miss Marie Gear of Loridox, Gary Walden of Stayner, Mrs. Elva • McClinchcy, Mr. and Mrs. -• Garth McClinchcy of Auburn, Mrs. Mable Jennings, Mr. Bob and Ronald Jennings of Liuonia, Michigan, Mrs. Jini Limpany of Aylmer. Mr. and Mrs. Jim Limpany 'of Aylmer, and Mr. 'and Mrs. Jack Johnson -and Kari• of London visited with the ladies parents, Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Snell and Bonnie, and attended the funeral On Thursday of their cousin, Mrs, Donna Cunningham.

Seaforth and Mrs. Mabel Killough, Exe- • ter, Visiting on Monday at the sae home. was Mrs. Norman ' Pipper of Hensall, Mrs. Walsh's daughter. said Mr, Nixon spoke of the frightening debt run up by the government in Ontario but said Mr. MacNaughton had held the debt while he was treasurer to less than six per cent of the gross provincial product. At that time, Mr, Southcott claimed, Mr. Nixon was claiming the debt should be allowed to rise to nine per cent. The debt still isn't that high, Mr. Southcott said, and Mr., Nixon is saying it is now too much. Nixon's claim that >. •,Premier Davis' offices had been redecorated were also false, Mr. Southcott said. He said the first .offices redecor- ated were those of Mr. Nixon's caucus. Mr. Such in his speech out- lined the various projects in Huron he had been a part" of in his 23 years living in the riding. Mrs. Cardno called for more realistic assessment system for farms and better access to Highway 401 for Huron. She said farmers need a voice in government. Mr. Dale pointed out that there hadn't been a farmer represent Huron since the 1940's "and that was a Liberal". "Don't you think it's time we had one when Huron depends so much on farming?" the prom- inent Hullett farmer said. • )AiTS Vook Ertl Suecia1S '3C:1 min SAV 109! ,STRIPED ALL WOOL FLARES Sizes8-16 Regularly $12.00 $5 98 ea NYLON STRETCH PANTS Sizes 10 - 44 Narrow leg Regularly to $11.98 $4175 et SWEATERS Long & Short sleeves Regular' $1095 value.

The 78 -year-old Clinton native taught school in Blyth about 50 years -ago and later went on to introduce the first school on wheels in the north. Mr. Sloman and his wife, Cela, raised five children and educated them to Grade 12 le- vel evel while they travelled in a railway car on the Temiskaming and Northern Ontario Railroad from 1927 until 1964. Their route covered 150 miles and 13 stops each month from Capreol to Foleyet. The car was started in 1927 with the co-op- eration of the Canadian National Railways and the Ontario depart- ment, of education. Half, of the pupils were child- ren of Indian squatters and rrappers and the rest were French- Canadian and English children , of 'railway car men. It was the only opportunity for many of the youngsters to learn to read and write in the rugged north. In the evenings, the Slomans _--taught games to the parents and children and often showed mo- vies with a hand crank. The car in which they taught is slated to be housed in the CN Pioneer Museum, now under construction in Georgetown, Goma NG EVENTS NEW BINGO, CLINTON LEGION Hall, 8:30 p, m.

Jack Riddell, Dashwood farmer runs for Liberals. Jack Riddell, 41 year old bus- inessman and farmer defeated. three other candidates Thursday night to capture the Liberal party nomination for the March 15 by-election in Huron, The Dashwood man told the nearly 500 persons who packed the Hensall Public School Aud- itorium that if elected they could expect to see him back home in his overall when he was not - s erving tliem in Toronto. He said he would build no ivory towers and that the only place he would be happy was in the country helping to solve' the problems of the people in the riding.. He won. the nomination on only one ballot, capturing the majority of the' 332 elegible votes, The other candidates were Graeme Craig, a 25 year old Walton farmer, John Lyndon of Goderich, manager of two - theatres there and veteran of the Royal Canadian Air Force and Don symons, mayor of Clinton. . An air of enthusiasm prevaded the meeting both from the platform and among the packed house of supporters who braved blustery weather and frigid temperatures to travel to Hen- sall, Murray Gaunt, M, P, P, for Huron Bruce started much of the confidence in the result of the election when he said, "I have a feeling we are going to win. I want to win so bad I can taste it", He said he had been talking to one prom- inent Conservative who said he wasn't worried about the result of the election, that it was really just a reappointment for the Conservatives, "We'll show them democracy is still alive in Huron," Mr. Gaunt said, Now, he said, is the time for the people of Huron to speak out against regional- ism and centralizing policies of the government. He said the two by-elections in Huron and St, George in Toronto give people a chance to slap the government on the wrist and warned that electing the Con- servative candidate would cause the government to think its policies net with the app- roval of the people. Hugh Edigogher, M, P. P. for Perth told the meeting he had been travelling on a committee of the government with seven Conservatives and they too felt the two by-elections were fore- gone conclusions. In his speech, Mr. Riddell attacked the government's cent- ralizing policies. Ile. compared them to erosion that little by little was sweeping away the small family farm, small mer- chants, small towns and small schools.. He said forgivable loans to big companies help put small businesses out of business, He said he is not at all convinc- ed that children today are being better prepared to go out in the world than they were before County School boards were im- posed by the provincial govern- ment. Regional government was a central theme for nearly all speakers. Mayor Symons called government plans a last supper for towns and villages. Mr. Lyndon said such plans were designed to build a moat around Toronto so small towns could not get in to have their beefs heard. He said the county needed a strong voice if its needs were to be heard in -Queen's Park. Mr. Craig said that if the government went ahead with its regional plans, Huron would be like a fly on an elephants back. He compared regional govern- ment with county school boards and wondered how it could possibly be cheaper. Nixon reveals `fiscal nightmare' Robert Nixon, leader of the • Opposition in the Ontario Leg- islature called the current $800 million provincial deficit a fiscal nightmare when he spoke to the nomination meet- ing of the Liberal party in Huron riding for the upcoming March 15 by-election. Speaking in Hensall Thursday night Mr. Nixon said the term was first used by Charles Mac - Naughton when he was treasurer of the province in the 1960's and warned"against rising costs. Mr. Nixon said that since Mr. Davis had become premier the deficit had risen from the old record of $119 million in 1968 to $600 million last year and $800 million this year. "The interest on our provincial debt alone is $460 million which is one and a quarter million a day, every day of the year, Mr. Nixon. said. He listed some of the extra- vagances of the government such as the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education building "built by a friend of the prem- ier", the Fidinam building at Bloor and Young, one 'of the most expensive pieces of real estate in Toronto and Ontario Place "the $35 million hotdog stand on Lake Ontario." He pointed out that the premier's personal staff now numbered 7S, twice the num- ber needed by Mr. Robarts. He claimed the premier was having his offices redone for the second time since he was elected and the offices were being expanded necess- itating the moving of the Leg- islative Press Clipping Service (which he called a vital ser- vice to M.P.P.'s) to Bloor Street East "sufficiently far away to greatly diminish the value of the service and in turn the effectiveness' of the Members of the Legislature. He also lit into the govern- ment over regional government. "I believe", he said, "our ex- periments in Niagara, Ottawa, Muskoka and York have been expensive failures. Costs have rocketted upward and so-called local government has been made even more remote from the people. "The government has tried hard to make regional govern- ment work, or at least appear to work, with massive infusions of special grants and by retain- ing public relations specialists." He claimed, however, that even these attempts had failed and the only people to benefit from regional government were the beaurocrats at Queen's Park who make the plans and "seem able to insist that they go forward". He told the 'meeting, "This election is your chance to ex- press your views to the Con- servative government supported by its huge and placid major- ity." He warned that a vote for the Conservative candidate would be an indication to the government that the people of Huron favoured the govern- ment's policy on regional government. He said there seem to be no solutions in sight fel ° the • problems of. rising health care costs now that Dr. Potter, Minister of Health is in hospit- al recovering from an operation, He said no one doubted Dr. Potter's committment to a'. sound system, but, he said, his usefullness in his present post is certainly in question because Dr. Potter has not been supported by the gov- ernment. He quoted a letter sent out from the Conservative party which solicited financial support for the party from doctors which said in part. "I suggest to you that the possibility of a change of government in Ontario in the future would be against your interests, not only as a doctor but also as a tax- payer,• consumer and citizen". "It almost seems", Mr. Nixon said, "that the government is for sale", Are you planning a wedding this year. We have free book lets on Wedding Customs and Etiquette. Get your 'free booklet now.

That is what farmers claimed at last Fridays meeting of the Bruce -Huron power negotiating Committee in Teeswater, Farm- ers are so lowly regarded by hydro that they offer no more than alms for the .best quality farmland, Alec Sim of Arran 'township, who is in the sante position as the landowners in Morris, Hull- ett and McKillop townships had this to say: Agents from hydro are offer- ing the same for easements re- gardless if the farm is worth $125 or $350 per acre, namely one tower $315 and 80 rods easement $312 for a total of $627. A carpenter working less hours than a farmer in busy season could earn more than this amount, Interest on $627 at 7 3/4 per cent is $48.59. A carpenter working for hydro at Douglas Point earns this amount in less than eight hours. I am expected to keep down weeds, work around the tower, have the inconvenience a three extra gates, probably in- convenience of underground wires, work around tower wasting crops and time and probable devaluation of farm. All of this for a whole year for what a carpenter earns in less than six hours. In 1968 $627 world buy two good cows or five or six west- ern calves. In ]973 one cow or about two or three calves, Farmers would do well to do some figuring and contact the committee before putting their name on any paper. Thursday the. committee, to- gether with the OFA power corridor committee will meet again with Ontario Hydro in Toronto, Euchre held Nine tables of euchre were played in the Belgrave Comm- unity rooms last Wednesday evening.
