PUC 'announces
rate increase
Blyth Public Utilities Commission
announced electrical rate increases . this
week.
The increases will be reflected in billings BLYTH, ONTARIO
after September 1. Charges to the P.U.C.
from Ontario Hydro have been increased
necessitating the increase in rates.

Whelan -mania, opposition to price and
wage controls or John Lyndon... whatever
the reason Robert McKinley's majority was
cut sharply in the Monday federal election.
Still, Mr. McKinley isn't likely to lose
much sleep over the matter, Despite losing
30 per cent of his whopping 10,000 vote
majority in 1972 he still won in a walk, by a
majority of 7000 votes over Liberal John
Lyndon,
For Mr. McKinley the easy victory was a
wedding anniversary for him and his wife
who also celebrated their 24th wedding
anniversary 011 Monday.
In a campaign that really wasn't a
campaign, Mr. McKinley won his usual
easy victory although not without some
troubles along the way, something he
hasn't had t0 face much in the past. In 1972
he snowed under the Liberal candidate
Charles Thomas of Brussels, who had been
expected to put up a good fight. Then,
however, he was playing on the
unpopularity of Prime Minister Trudeau
t
A
with the people, Then he didn't have Gene
Whelan, the popular Liberal candidate,
and then he didn't have to defend prices
and incomes controls, an issue that was not
popular in the riding.
The fact that he won so handily despite
these factors is a tribute to the hard work
he has done over the years in solving
constituent problems, to his hard-working
party machine, and to the hard-core
Conservative core of voters in Huron -
Middlesex. •

Blyth to get
licencing
bureau
Village council has apparently won its
fight to secure a motor vehicle licensing
office for Blyth.
Council received a letter Monday night
from Murray Gaunt, M.P.P. for Huron -
Bruce saying that the establishment of a
bureau had been approved for the village.
Council wrote to the Department of
Transport and Communication earlier this
year requesting a licencing office in the
village but were turned down. Rather than
give up councillors asked Mr. Gaunt to
intercede on their behalf. Mr. Gaunt
apparently got action, although no official
confirmation has been received as yet from'
the Ministry itself,
Blyth may soon get a mobile home park'
as well. The development came out of a
June 10 meeting of the Blyth Planning
Board and council with Gary Davidson,
Huron County Planning Director. One of
the problems raised at the meeting was the
problems of mobile home development.
The village council had decided earlier to
prohibit further location of mobile homes
within the village. Mr. Davidson informed
council of how other municipalities had
developed mobile home parks and
promised to draw up plans and recommend
a location for one in Blyth.
The Memorial Hall renovation project
received little attention at the meeting.
Council was a little stung, however at the
engineering charges for the work which
came to $1099. A further engineering fee of
$583 was paid for the Wellington Street
extension.

Council to investigate hiring
special constable
Faced with a growing number of
complaints from village residents about
reckless late-night driving, Blyth Village
Council voted Monday night to investigate
the hiring of a special constable to police
the village on weekends,
Village Clerk -treasurer Larry Walsh was
asked to contact the Ontario Provincial
Police to sec what authority the council has
to hire such an official and then contact
individuals to see if they would be
interested in the job if, in fact, it is legal for
the village to hire an officer.
There has been talk among residents,
especially those living along main street, of
forming a vigilante committee to try to do
something about the drivers who rip
and roar around the streets into the wee
hours of the morning, driving over lawns
and throwing beer bottles at buildings. The
inadequacy of periodic police controls in
coping with the problems were brought out
at the meeting and the council moved to try
to find a solution before the talk of
vigilantes became more serious.
In other business council agreed to give
$1300 to the Blyth Union Cemetery Board
to help meet expenses and purchase 2,966
aces of land from Alvin Snell for ,
expansion of the cemetery. Other area
councils are also providing money and have
been asked to provide their money in two
payments, the second being in November.
Blyth council was asked to pay the whole
amour.: at once to help the board over its
present financial predicament.
Council refused a request from the
Maitland Teleservices to expand its
present facility which would make it harder
to drive through the alley at the back of
stores on the west side of Queen Street.
E. Wawanosh
buys tractor
East Wawanosh council accepted the
tender of Ray Potter and sons of Clinton for
a new tractor for the township at the J
meeting held July 1
The new Ford tractor will have a new ,
mower and will cost $9,301.
Council agreed to pay $800 towards the
cost of new land for Blyth Union Cemetery
with $400 to be paid at once and $400 in
November.
The tender of George Radford Construct-
ion Limited was accepted for the open work
on the Currie Drain at $1,945.

Morris township
agrees to pay toward
cemetery expansion
1t was a meeting of light business as
Morris Township council met for its July
meeting on July 3.
Council agreed to pay 4600 toward the
Blyth Union Cemetery to help in the
expansion of the cemetery.
A resolution from the township of
Pittsburgh near Kingston was endorsed. it
called for the raising of ceilings on interest
rates charged by municipalities. At
present, the rate can be no higher than one
per cent per month. The resolution calls for
the ceiling to be raised to two per cent per
month to keep people, int times of high
interest rates from banks, from using their
taxes as a loan.
Two other resolutions regarding a
provincial lottery to raise funds for natural
disasters and about crosswalks were not
acted on.
Road accounts of $32,204.46 and general
accounts of $25,454.07 were approved for
payment.
Little business
at West Wawanosh
meeting
The summer doldrums seem to have set
in for West Wawanosh council with only
caretaking business being undertaken at
the Julymeeting held July 2.
Tenders are to be called for pit -run
gravel for reconstruction of sideroad 18.19,
Concession 7.
Dog taxes of $10 and hydro arrears of
$153.10 were approved for payment.
A resolution from the township of
Pittsburgh about raising the ceilings on
penalties for tax arrears was tabled.
A tile drain loan was approved.
The steamy weather In western Ontario this week made very few places comfortable. One
such place, however, was the Lions Club wading pool which was crowded dally with
youngsters ieeking "relief from the heat. —staff photo.

Decorators and Raw Hides win
The Lawrie Decorators and the
Atlas Raw Hides won their games
in the Blyth Industrial Softball
League last Sunday.
The Decorators defeated the
Radford's Gravel Grants 11 to 3.
The Gravel Giants jumped into a 3

Decorators fought back.
They scored four runs in the
third inning and never looked

The Raw Hides scored early
and with the help of Vaughn
Toll's three -run homer built up a
9 to 3 lead. However the Lumber
Kings rallied and tied the game in
the sixth inning. The rally was
high lighted by Larry Bolger's

Grand View Lunch
reopens
For Frances McClinchey, it's a
little like going back to childhood.
. Mrs. McClinchey officially
opens her Grand View Lunch on
Friday and running a restaurant
is not something new for her. She
grew up in the business. Her
parents ran a combination bake
shop, restaurant and grocery
store where the Huron Grill is
today and Fran grew up in the
restaurant atmosphere.
She's had a varied business ife
ever since. For the last seven
years she has worked for the
Canadian imperial Bank of
Commerce in Blyth while her
husband Bob ran the Supertest
station on Queen Street.
Prior to that she had worked in
Kernick's grocery and the Super-
ior store and even for a short time
at Grand View Lunch, the same
restaurant she now owns.
• For 10 years Bob had worked
for Radford Construction Ltd. The
couple also ran a coin Laundromat
at one time.
'They purchased Grand View
Lunch in February from the estate
of the late Edith Creighton who
died suddenly last October. Mrs.
Creighton had built the restaur-
ant and small garage in the early
1950's and operated it until her
death.
Since purchasing Grand View
and selling their service station,
the McClinchey's have been busy
renovating the living quarters and
restaurant. They opened the
doors for the first time on June
27.
Among the inprovemen1s is a
new enlarged kitchen that takes
up much of the space of the old
garage leaving the rest tor
storage. This area had been used
'as a boutique by Mrs. Creighton.
The restaurant has been panelled
in wood.
One of the Features of the
building is a large, downstairs
room with hardwood floors which
was once used as a dancehall. So
far the McClincheys have no
plans for the roost.

New tree planting program
may start
It looks like Blyth may get a few
new trees to replace the large
number of trees that have been
cut down in recent years.
The subject was brought up by
Mrs. Phylis Street at council
Monday night and council quickly
agreed to investigate planting
more trees in the village.

The Senior Citizens Appart-
ment project is moving a little
closer to reality. Representatives
of Ontario Housing Corporation,

possible sites for the building. A
decision is expected to be made
shortly.
*****
For many people, the sewerage
project in Blyth seems to have
been in limbo for some time.
Ther has been little word fro the
Ministry of Environment about
the status of the project and
everyone, including council mem-
bers, has been in the dark. A little
light was shed in the matter
Monday 'night when Clerk -
treasurer Larry Walsh revealed
he had been talking to the
engineer for the project and there
have been problems with the
dilution ability of the small Blyth
Creek. Until these are solved, a
design can not be made.
*****
One more example of the
way things go with regionaliza-
tion was revealed at council the
other night. it used to cost $15 for
a septic tank inspection in Huron
council when the Huron Health
Unit handled the inspection.
When the province took over the
job the cost increased to $150.
Besides that, you cannot even
repair a tile in your present septic
tank system without calling in an
inspector.

Editorial
Centralized county
policing won't work
It would be nice to think the present policing problems Blyth has
would be solved by the proposed county police department.
Unfortunately the chances are they won't.
The last plans we saw for county policing called for establishment of
detachments of county police in the five towns of the county. These
detachments would send periodic patrols through the surrounding
countryside and the villages.
Big deal, That happens to be what we have now with the provincial
police doing the patrolling, and it doesn't work. The provincial police
are in the village for a few minutes every day. The rest of the time
anything goes, and it usually does, Vandalism, rowdism, reckless
driving, all go unapprehended,
County policing won't provide an answer for the problem, What it
would do is make taxpayers in Blyth and other villages and rural areas
pay for a service they now get free, Some may argue these areas are
getting an unfair advantage by getting the O.P.P. service without
paying for it. Residents of the area are more likely to agree that they
are paying for the service what it's worth...nothing.
And now
on with the job
The stunning Liberal victory in Monday's federal election leaves
little doubt Canadians have more faith in Pierre Trudeau to lead the
country through troubledtimes than Robert Stanfield.
Mr. Trudeau now has the unenviable task of trying to cope with
inflation which has swept over the western world. He said throughout
the campaign that there were no easy solutions, that solutions such as
the Conservatives' wage and price controls wouldn't work. Canadians
apparently believed him.
Now with a solid majority, Mr. Trudeau has the chance to take
whatever steps are necessary to try to improve the situation. The
problem is that few can agree on what should be done. It would be nice
if there was a clear path ahead, but there isn't. It seems Canadians are
likely to suffer more before the situation gets better.
There are other issues, however, that will not hurt so badly and
where action is clearly needed. For one thing there is a need for the
Prime Minister to put into action his promises to gain more equity for
Westerners in freight rates and industrial developments. Although
unemployment dropped dramatically according to figures announced
Tuesday morning, it still remains high in the Maritimes and the'
government faces that same challenge most other governments in the
past have: how to get the Maritime economy rolling.
These are tough problems with no easy solutions. The Canadian
people have given Mr. Trudeau their confidence and they must retain
that confidence in him, Unlike 1968 when they expected him to perform
miracles, this time they know he is just a man, not a god and that
everyone needs to help out if we are to beat inflation, regional disparity
and unemployment.

BY BILL SMILEY
This column is going to be a
little tough to write. No, there
hasn't been a death in the family.
Not quite,
But I wasn't too sure 1 wasn't
going to bleed to death (through
the eyes) when 1 tottered out of
bed at seven this morning just
two hours aftca,t+ottering into bed.
It was all that reading. My
brother-in-law, Jack Buell,
brought alongon a visit some old
high school ootball pictures, and
we spent most of.the night, barely
stopping for food and drink
deciphering the names under the
photos.
There we were, in the late
1930's, looking so young and
sweet and innocent it would make
your eyes water. One picture was
headed: Undefeated Champions
of Lanark" County.
That was a great year, I reckon.
Come on, now, How many of you
have ever been on a team of
Undefeated Champions of any-
thing?
We talked and laughed a lot as
we identified long -forgotten faces
and our wives muttered away
contemptuously in the back-
ground. They thought we were
behaving like a couple of
schoolboys. We were.
Right in the middle of the front
row, holding the ball, was Les
Douglas, quarter -back and team
captain. He wasn't a big guy, but
he was solid bone, muscle and
grit. He could always claw his
way that extra five inches for a
touchdown, through six hundred
pounds of enemy flesh.
He was a great hockey player,
too. Make it to professional, But
he was born twenty years too
soon. There were just too many
great hockey players in those
days, and he didn't quite make
the NHL, though he lead the
American . Hockey League in
scoring for several seasons.
Today, he'd be knocking off about
$60,000 a year.
Flanking him in the photo were
Bob White and Tom Harper. Tom
could run with the • ball like a
rabbit with, six guys shooting at
him.
Bob White %vas my best friend,
through high school. He wasn't
huge, either, but when he needed
a few yards, there was no
question of who would get the
ball. Bob would take a plunge at
anything the size of a doughnut
hole, and always come up with
the necessary yards.
We all hated school, except for
the sports, but Bob White was
bright. Today, he'd be going to
college and becoming an engineer
or something equally useless, But
in those days, there was no way,
No students' loans, no grants,
and dang few affluent parents. If
you got a job in a factory, you
were lucky,
Last time 1 saw Bob was in
London, England, during the war.
It was in the lobby of the famous,
or infamous, Strand Palace, He
was checking out, I was checking
in. Hello and goodbye. He had
completed one tour of operations
on bombers and was about to
begin his second. On which he
was killed,
Beside Bob in the picture was
Johnny Hogg. A nice guy, who
was forced by his parents to
maintain a much high standard of
intellectual and cultural life than
the rest of us poolroom bums. He
played the violin. He passed his
It's been a long,
long time
subjects, He was a clean -living,
tgood-looking lad, just the type
you'd want for yourseif, though
he had a distressing habit of
dropping crucial punts.
As I heard it Inter, they found
Johnny lying in a rubber dinghy
in the Mediterannean, Dead.
He'd been shot down, wounded,
parachuted, got into the dinghy,
and died.
Then there was Less Morris, a
boy with a terrible home life, a
terrible birthmark, and a person-
ality to go with both. But he was
also a terrible, terrifying tackler,
who could hit a fancy-dancy
halfback so hard that the guy
didn't know he'd been amputated
at the knees until he tried to stand
up And Norni Davis. He had the
speed of a gazelle, and the grace
of a gnu. He didn't come back
from the war either.
There were quite a few more,
but Old Jack, niy brother-in-law
and myself, didn't belabour the
tragic theme. We laughed until
we were purple in the face at all
the things we had got away with,
not all the things that had got
away with so many of us.
It was also nice to sec our
coaches, Earl Fleming, teacher,
such a handsome young man I
can't believe we called him "Old
Fiem." J. C. Cosgrove, 248
pounds of science teacher who
could wipe two recalcitrant
students off their stools with one
hand as easily as I could wipe the
dust off the windowsill, if such a
silly thing ever occurred to me.
As you can sec, this has been a
hard column to write. And
probably a might difficult one to
read.
TODAY'S CHILD
BY HELEN ALLEN
THE TORONTO j Jjj SYNDICATE
Eddie, 14, is short, sturdy and healthy, Anglo•Saxon in
descent. He has brown eyes, dark hair and fair, clear skin. He
wears. glasses for short-sightedness. Eddie is an intelligent,
outgoing lad with a nice sense of humor. He is going into Grade
eight.
Though high average in intelligence he has some learning
difficulties and at present lacks a well developed sense of
responsibility in regard to school work. Verbally he is above
average and is a delightful, vivacious conversationalist.
Eddie enjoys attention - sometimes seeking it in ways winch
can be irritating to adults. At other times he will be con-
scientious and helpful, obviously relishing the approval
generated by this kind of behavior.
Fishing is Eddie's hobby. He belongs to the YMCA and reads a
great deal on a variety of subjects.
Eddie needs a home where he will be the youngest family
member and where the parents are warm, stimulating and at
the same time firm. For such parents he will be a rewarding
son.
To inquire about adopting Eddie, please write to Today's
Child, Ministry of Community and Social Services, Box 888,
Station K, Toronto M4P 2112. For further general information,
please contact your local Children's Aid Society.

that 2 million people could live on
the energy off 20,000 acres 1 did
have a zero too many. It should

December 1930 and May 1936,
The Toronto price for dressed
hogs was $13,50 to $14.50 cwt,
Feed barley, 35.40 ct. Now,
almost 40 years later the price is
three times as high for hogs and
six times as high for barley.
1 could find nothing about
wages but I assume that there are
10 times higher. It shows once
more that the producer has every
right to demand more for his
products as he is lagging behind
the rest of society in increasing
his standard of living. The name
Federation executive
member speaks
on higher food costs
BY ADRIAN VOS
At the regular meeting of the
Huron Federation of Agriculture
the guest speaker was Mr. James
McGuigan, who is an executive
member of the Ontario Federa-
tion of Agriculture and among
other important post holds the
position of President of the Fruit
and Vegetable Growers Associa-
tion.
Mr. McGuigan lashed out at
farmers who downgrade their
business and in doing so alienate
more to offer than a 8 to 4 job
does. On the cost of food, he
stated that much has been said
about the capacity of the farmer
to produce more food on the same
land. Yes, we can produce more
but at a cost. If it means more
fertilizer for nitrogen, this comes
from oil and adds to the cost with
today's high fuel prices. Phosfate
is found in inaccessable places
and using more means of higher
cost to get it out of there and to
the farm. Only potash is
in sufficient quantity available.
Increased use of fertilizer will
thus increase the cost of food
production and the cost to
consumers, Chemical herbicides
and insecticides too are derived
from oil or coal. From coal is the
more costly one.
It all adds up to only one thing,
high food prices. It's the same
with irrigation, very expensive
and in the long run the land,
especially in arid regions be-
comes salty and less productive.
Advances in plant breeding
appears to have come to an end,
We rima 'a high risk of plant I
diseases wiping out at entire
crop. Remember the corn blight
two years ago? The key to
increased production is profit. It
the producer can make a profit he
will buy tl.ese more expensive
items. Now 10 per cent of Eastern
manufacturing milk producers
quit every year because of lack of
profit. The farmer must keep pace
with the income of the rest of
society or he will drop out,
Mason Bailey expressed fear
that with Huron County's
agricultural zoning some farmers
are losing because land that was
worth quite a bit of money before
zoning is now locked in agricul-
ture and means a Toss to the
owner. If society demands this
zoning, he stated, the owner
should be compensated by

1 have a friend who lives in the
city as most people have, Harry is
somewhat different than most.
He is really interested in the
farm scene and would like to farm
someday himself, He is so
convinced that farming is the best
way to life that he almost always
is wrong. The best way to
demonstrate what I mean is to
give a sample of a conversation I
often have with him, When
talking about the Hydro corridors
he said: "Why not? You sell the

Behind the scenes
Some thoughts come to mind after the election
BY KEITH ROULSTON
After an election like the one
we had this week many thoughts
crowd the mind. Why did things
happen as they did? What makes
people change their voting
pattern? Here's a few thoughts
that went through one editor's
head following the outcome.
***
How big a role does the press
play in helping form opinions
about political campaigns? Well,
it looks like you should hope the
paper comes out supporting the
other guy if you hope to win.
For instance, in the last week of
the campaign all three Toronto
daily newspapers came out on the
side of the Conservatives. Most of
the commentators on the city's
largest radio stations seemed to
be favouring the Conservatives,
with the exception of course of
crusty old Cord Sinclair. But
when the results came in, the
Conservatives were almost blast-
ed out of the city. The Liberals
took 18 of the 21 scats in Metro
Toronto.
Perhaps people are trying to
tell the newspapers to give the
information and let the readers
make up their own minds.
***
There are many possible
reasons for the Conservatives to
give for their loss. The one that
would make them feel best would
be that people voted against their
wage and price controls. Believ-
ing that the conservatives can feel
they were misunderstood, that
they were beaten because they
offered bitter medicine to combat
inflation and the Canadian people
rebelled, deciding they would
rather live with wishy-washy
Trudeau efforts to battle inflation.
There's another possibility, one
I'm sure would hurt Robert
Stanfield more than any other
reason for the defeat. It could be
the simplest explanation, how-
ever and perhaps the real .one.
That reason is simply that Mr.
Stanfield didn't really count in
this election or in either the 1968
or 1972 campaigns. Mr. Stanfield
did better in 1972 not because of a
positive Conservative vote but
because people wanted to humble
Trudeau. Having humbled him,
having seen him ,squirm and 'seen
him take it and fight back, the
people were in a positive mood
against the man and so voted for
him again.
It would be a hard thing for
Stanfield to accept because it's
one thing to be misunderstood
and quite another to be ignored.
One has to feel sorry for
Stanfield. He is in much the same
position Mike Pearson was in
during the early Diefenbaker-
Pearson years, Stanfield, like
Pearson, is a quiet unspectacular
politician. Pearson was frustrated
because the consumate politician
John Diefenbaker got all the
attention and most of the votes
just as Trudeau has managed to
do. However, unlike Pearson w ho
persevered and was rewarded
because Diefenbaker saw his
party disintegrate around him,
Stanfield has not been so lucky.
Pierre Trudeau did not destroy
himself as he appeared to be
doing in 1972. He bounced back,
and it looks like the end of the line
for the Conservative leader.
***
Someday, I think, historians
will regard Pierre Trudeau as one
of the mose fascinating Prime
Ministers Canada has ever had. It
is yet to be known whether he will
be a great Prime Minister, but he
is interesting. Probably no other
Prime Minister has changed so
much in office, probably because •
no other man ever reached the
Prime Minister's office with so
little political experience.
Usually a man starts on the
bac)( bench and moves slowly
upward being slowly shaped by
the political system so that he is a
party politician by the time he
reaches the party leadership. But
Trudeau by the time he reaches
the party leadership. But Trudcau
leapfrogged from back bench to
85% of McKillop taxes
paid for June
Eighty-five per cent of McKill-
op Township June taxes for 1974
have been paid. Mrs. Kenneth
McClure, clerk -treasurer, re-
ported at the council meeting last
week a total of $94,243.35 has
been paid with $16,965 remaining
to be paid.
Members of council decided
they were not in favour of
participating in any deficit in-
curred by a Day Care Centre as
proposed for the Town of
Seaforth.
The Town of Seaforth passed a
resolution on June 10 in favour of
establishing a Day Care, Centre to.
be restricted to the 'Town of
Seaforth unless other municipali-
ties agree by formal resolution to
participate.
Council awarded the contracts

tion Company of Listowel for the

Council endorsed the resolution
from the Township of Pittsburg
that the provincial government
give immediate consideration to
the amendment to the present
legislation to increase the penalty

maximum of 2 per cent per month
for each calender month default
continues. At the present time the
penalty varies up to one per cent.

few short years. He brought a
breath of fresh air, but he also
made enemies, Now, after six
years in office, he is learning
politics for the first time, The last
campaign saw hint as a real
politician, a new role. For those
who liked him better when he was

move, but for party members, it
was a great sight.

remembered as a great Prime
Minister or just a political
phenominum. If he can continue
to cememt relations between
English and French Canada, if he
can control inflation, if he can
improve relations with Western
Canada, and if he can continue to
present a good appearance for
Canada abroad, then he may well
earn a strong place irk Canadian
history.
