WEDNESDAY, JUNE 9, 1976
Arena to be closed meetingplanned
Blyth Community Centre arena will not
be used this winter and a public meeting
has been scheduled by village council on
June 23 to discuss the situation,
Art Clark of the Maitland Engineering of
Wingham informed council this week that
it would be foolhardy for him to complete
his engineering report on the arena
because he has enough evidence already to
call for the closure of the building. One
truss has sagged eight inches from its
proper position,
Mr. Clark had been supposed to have
presented his interim report to council on
Monday night but prior committment at
another council meeting made him unable
to attend. He did, however, tell councillors
that he might as well save the village
another $1000 by not completing the rest of
the inspection.
Recreation Committee chairman George
Hubbard was present at the meeting and
suggested that action should be taken right
away to resolve the problem, ,Councillors
agreed. • A public meeting is to be held at
Memorial Hall on June 23 to appoint a.
committee to oversee plans to provide
adequate facilities for the Blyth commun-
ity. Councillors in the meantime will be
conducting a fact-finding mission to other
centres that have lost their arenas. The
engineer's , report stating the cost of
renovations to the present structure will
also be available by then.
No matter what course of action is taken,
it is unlikely there will be any winter sports
program in the Blyth arena this winter.
In other business, council approved a
grant of $400 to the Horticultural Society to
help with its work of beautifying the
village.
Councillors noted that the Horticultural
Society had already done a good deal of -•
work around the Memorial Hall and at the
water reservoir.
No one, it seems, is interested in the job
ofpainting the exterior trim on Memorial
Hall and the village office building and the
interior of the Library. Council earlier
called tenders on the project and recoived
not even one tender. The job is to be
tendered again with advertisements placed
in the Wingham and Clinton papers as well
as in Blyth.
A by-law was passed to allow Fire Chief
Irvine Bowes to use his car as an
emergency vehicle. A grant of $1000 was
given to the Blyth volunteer firemen to
restore the old firetruck so that it can be
entered in area parades to advertise next
year's Blyth Centennial, This amount will
hopefully be recovered by a grant from
Wintario but council advanced the money
so that work could begin at once. The
motion to apply to Wintario for the grant
was approved over the objections of
Councillor Fred Carson.
A severance was approved to allow
Mason Bailey to transfer property behind
the Kitchen Cupboard to the lot containing
that building from the nextdoor lot
containing the Village Restaurant. Both
buildings are owned by Mr. Bailey.
Letters were earlier sent out to four
property owners in the village asking them
to clean up unsafe buildings- on their
property. Only one of the persons involved
replied to council on the matter. Council
moved to take further action to have the
buildings either improved or demolished.
If the village does the work the money will
be added to the tax bill for the properties
involved.

Blyth arena will not hear the sounds of hockey pucks thumping
against the boards this winter. An engineer's report says the arena
will not stay up to present Ministry of Labour building standards.
Moving quickly, Blyth council has called a meeting for June 23 to
name a committee to oversee either repair or replacement of the
arena. The arena will remain open for summer activities until the
engineer's report is completed and returned to the Ministry' of
Labour. —staff photo.
Takes up nearly 12 mills
As expected, Blyth taxpayers will be hit
with an increase of about 12 mills on their
taxes this year.
The actual increase for public school
supporters for residential will be 11.97
mills. The amount is less that the amount
of the increase in education taxes alone.
The budget approved by village council
on Monday night will see a total mill rate of
124.84 for 1976 compared with 112.97 in
1975, for residential. The commercial and
business rate will go to 143.29 from 130.19.
The increase means a tax increase of about
$36 on the average home assessed at •
$3000.
The Municipal residential mill rate this
year was raised only slightly from 42.38
mills last year to 42.7 mills this year. The
county rate actually decreased from 29.01
mills last year to 27.57 mills this year.
Education was the big reason for the
increase, The residential elementary
school mill rate for public school
supporters went from 27.2 mills last year to
32.42 mills this year and the secondary
school rate went from 18.33 mills last year
to 26.86 mills this year. The total
residential mill rate increase for public
school taxes was 12.97 mills.
The mill rate increase•for separate school
supporters is even stiffer with a total mill
rate this year of 129.55 mills compared to
116.92 last year.
Business and commercial rates are (with
last year's figure in brackets): general
municipal, 50.23 (49.86); county, 32.43
(34.13); elementary school, public, 30.79
(25.83); secondary school, 29.84 (20.37);
total, 143.29 (130.19).
Total assessment this year for residen-
tial, commercial and business will be
$ i98,405 compared to $750,570 last year.
In other business, Clerk -treasurer Larry
Walsh told council that work is proceeding
on an official plan for the village of Blyth.
Two people from the Huron County
Planning Office are at work on the plan.
Councillors were asked to do some thinking
on what undeveloped • land in the village
should be zoned as, according to the use
they would like to see the land designated
for.
A lengthy discussion was held on the
possibility of running a drain up King
Street to Morris then toward Dinsley to
serve property owners in the Morris -Dins -
ley area who suffer chronic water
problems. The streets and drains commit-
tee was given the approval to proceed with
the project if the property owners approve.
Building permits were issued to Doug
. Scrimgeour for a shed and Ralph Campbell
for a house.
Apartments likely to move
The Blyth Senior Citizens apartment
project remains stalled, but it appears
likely that work will begin ' in the next
couple of months on a new site. •
The original Queen Street site has been
abandoned due to water problems on the
site but, Reeve Robbie Lawrie told council
Monday night that it appears a new lot, one
in the east end of town owned by Bill
Radford, will likely be approved. The soil
tests were originally turned down on this
property but officials have since been
working on a plan to put fill and footings in
the lot to support the building,
Clerk -treasurer Larry Walsh told council
that Reeve Lawrie has not made himself
the most popular man with Ontario
Housing Corporation officials in his
constant pressure to try to get action on the
project. It is about three years since council
first made steps to get a senior citizens
apartment project for Blyth.

I-Iandicapped group
grter publicseeks awareness
The Awareness League of
Physically Handicapped Adults
(A,L,P,H,A,) is the name chosen
by a ngn•profit organization
concerned with the handicapped
in Huron County. "Awareness"
is the key word, because ALPHA
feels its main function is to
promote three kinds of
awareness.
First, it wants to make.. the
public aware of the desire and the
right of the handicapped to
participate in society. Secondly, it
wants to inform the public and the
municipal councils of the physical
and social barriers that prevent
disabled persons from taking total
roles in today's society. Thirdly,
the members of ALPHA hope to
convey to handicapped persons
the benefits of participation in
society. By becoming involved in
the communityLthe disabled help
to break down some of the
physical and social barriers that
exist.
ALPHA'S seventh meeting was
held on May 25 with fourteen
persons in attendance. A letter
was read. from the Tuckersmith
Council acknowledging the
receipt of a letter that urged the
Council to consider the needs of
the disabled in their future
construction and maintenance of
sidewalks and public facilities.
ALPHA sent similar requests to
all the Municipal Councils in the
County.
A Goderich member reported
that curb ramps have. been
installed in the town at the corner':
of North and Nelson Streets In
April, ALPHA petitioned the .:
Goderich Town Council regarding
pedestrian curb ramps, and it::

Eight members of .ALPHA
visited Kincardine recently to try:
out the curb cuts used in that.

School boundaries
to change in Huron
The Huron County Board of
Education is sending out a letter
to parents of school students
living in•Tuckersmith and Stanley
townships'regarding the possible
changes in school boundaries in
the county.
The letter reads as follows:
A committee studying school
boundaries in the county is
attempting to inform residents of
enrolment problems that exist, It
should be noted that no arbitrary
decision is being made at this
time, but that parental opinion
will be solicited before any final
decision is made,
Because of declining enrol-
ments in some schools, and
overcrowding in others, The
Huron County Board of Education
has appointed a committee to
study school boundaries in the
county.
As you are aware, there has
been a large influx of pupils from
Vanastra during the past few
years. These pupils are attending
Clinton Public School. This has
resulted in overcrowded condi-
tions at that school, to the point
where one portable classroom has
been added, and" the need for
more additional space is becom-
ing evident.
At the same time, Hensall
Public School has experienced a
large decline in enrolment over
the past few years.
Enrolment has also declined at
Zurich Public School.
The committee is of the opinion
that families in the souther part of
Tuckersmith and Stanley town-
ships would agree to have their
children attend Hensall or Zurich
Public School if their home is
closer to one of those schools than
to Huron Centennial School.
If these pupils did attend
Hensall or Zurich, the schools
could continue to operate effect-
ively, and . Huron Centennial
School would be able to accom-
modate some of the Tuckersmith
pupils presently living in
Vanastra.
sk
fortis
folde
The Huron County Board of
Education does not plan to make
any boundary changes for this
coming September, but is con-
sidering changes beginning in
September 1977.

PG.4. THE BILYTH STANDAiRD/JUNE 9, 1976.
Is there more violence:?
The great preoccupation today seems tobe with the Not''UP
American preoccupations with violence in the movies, on television and.
in books,
Here in Ontario we've just heard the news that our tax dollars are
going to be spent to send the commission on violence to Europe to
study the problem there. Already the commission has cost a lot of
money,
Meanwhile, almost lost in the clamour, are a few voices like that of
crusty Gordon Sinclair who claim the media isn't any more obsessed
with violence today than at other times in history. The first reaction to
this sort of comment is to ignore it because it goes against the
contemporary wisdom of the age. Some support was given to Sinclair's
argument the other night, however by a movie that appeared on
television. In an hour and a half, not counting commercials, about
seven people were shot to death, one fell of`a 200 -foot cliff, several
other people had narrow .escapes with violent death and there were
numerous fist fights and pistol whippings, including a struggle that
saw two men pitch backward down a long flight of stairs. Sounds
normal perhaps, but the movie was made somewhere about 1949, long
before our so called preoccupation with violence.
We're pretty uptight about sex these days too. Our hero in this
movie had women falling all over him offering their favours freely. The
love scenes were perhaps not quite so graphic as today's movies but
one would have to have been a Monk living in seclusion not to know
what was being told on the screen.
Was this an unusual movie? Perhaps, but probably not. If we looked
more closely at those so-called pure movies of the earlier era we might
find our fare today isn't so bad as we think by comparison.
A bargain
A press release from the Huron Country Playhouse last week
announced the fact the Playhouse had received a $20,000 grant from
the Ontario Arts Council to help defray an annual operating deficit. The
story points out that "to keep tickets moderately pried, the Playhouse
seks private and public assistance in • meeting an annual operating
deficit".
Those comparing the ticket prices at the Blyth Summer Festival with
those at the Playhouse might chuckle at the comparison of ticket prices.
Tickets at the Playhouse sell for $4.50 and $5. per seat, Tickets at the
Summer Festival went up this year, to the regret of the Festival
organizers, to $3 per seat. There are however, many special deals for
bulk buying, senior citizens and children. If the Playhouse is
moderate, then the Festival is the buy of the year.
That's not to knock the prices at the Grand Bend Theatre. To be sure
compared to tickets for live theatre elsewhere ttuch as in Toronto's big
theatres and at Stratford, the tickets seem tremendously cheap
(Stratford tickets sell for as high as $12 per seat). • -
Whatit does point out is that the Summer Festival provides
inexpensive entertainment. That's part of the aim of the organizers of
the theatre: to provide entertaiment at a cost the whole family can
afford.
It also means, howevbr, that the Blyth operation is constantly in
danger of running out of money. Theatre is expensive business. Rent of .
Memorial Hall alone this summer runs to $1500. It means that not only
must government support be found (like the $5000 grant from Ontario
Arts Council and money from Wintario) but private donations must
also be raised. The response to the request for donations last year in
the Blyth area was very strong. A repeat performance will be needed
this year to provide the money required.
Snow load or snow job?
If any town is sensitive about the roof structure of public arenas this
one is. It was the collapse of the arena roof here in February 1959 and
the resulting deaths ,of seven young hockey players and the town's
recreation director that prompted the government to establish strict
regulations for roof snow loads. Those regulations were long overdue;
but it now appears the government has gone overboard on the matter.
For the latter part of this winter and on into spring the Ontario
Ministry of Labor has been closing down arenas right, left and centre.
The way things are right now we won't have to worry about violence in
hockey or the judging at world figureskating competitions ISecause in a
decade or so skaters will be as scarce as hen's teeth. .1
Just what the object is of this,great arena closing binge is anyone's
guess. It could be that the province means to lower its.unemployment
rate by instigating make-work programs. Or it might he that Wintario
is making so much money Queen's Park is having difficulty disposing
of it. On the other hand, maybe the engineers have'' become the new
'in' group to keep the professional planners and consultants company.
Whatever the reasons behind the project, the results are ridiculous.
For example, if the government's edict were strictly adhered to --that
is that arenas must meet the snow -load requirements in the National
Building Code, 1975 --it would mean that a structure like Howick
Townships's two-year-old $450,000 combination community centre and
arena would have to be closed. Never mind that the arena met the
code's 1971 requirements which were in effect when the centre was
built and approved by the Ministry of Labor, two years ago.
Now it isn't likely that the Howick Community Centre will be closed,
but ,the point is it could be. And the point also is that many small
municipalities which depend upon their arenas to keep youngsters
occupied in the winter are at their wits' end to come up with an answer.
Forced by rising education and county expenses to pare their budgets
to the bone, they simply don't have the finances to either repair or
replace their arenas to meet the building code standards.
Their alternatives are non-existent. Even
if they decide to ignore the
closure orders and continue to operate they are doomed. For in all
likelihood the province would cut off the supply of grants without which
the municipalities cannot continue.
There is an answer to the roof snow problem that's gone unnoticed
by Queen's Park. It is called shovelling and the only expense involved
is the price of the two or three shovels you'll wear out in a winter (they
don't make them like they used to.)
And Queen's Park doesn't need to tell us they don't know how to
shovel. Out of necessity, politicians and civil servants are pastmasters
in the fine art of shovelling.
Come to think of it, those engineers who are roaming over our small
town arenas like plague -carriers are pretty good shovellers .too.
Trouble is they all just keep piling it up and then leave the home folk to
get rid of it.

Lonely tulip and a wagon wheel
BY KEITH ROULSTON
A bunch of us from the area
weekly newspapers got together a
week or so back for a seminar. We
call it a seminar because it sounds
impressive; actually it was closer
to a communal crying session,
We got together to discuss
photography; how we can make
our newspapers sing through the
use of tremendous pictures. As
usual, we found a lot of people to
blame for what's wrong now from
the darkroom technicians to the
printing plant. And some of us
even admitted we maybe made a
few mistakes ourselves.
The problem with this busi-
ness as we've pointed out before,
is that your mistakes live on to
haunt you. Everybody makes
mistakes but ours are right there
in black and white for all to sec
and snicker • at, and complain
about and think what stupid
people work at the newspaper
office. Those who really know the
newspaper business wonder not
why there are so many mistakes,
but how there aren't more of
them. Filtering informations from
word of mouth or written scrap of
paper through many hands to
final black and white printing and
all under the pressure of deadline
is not conduscive to perfection,
Anyway, enough for the gripes.
We all sat down in the back room
of one of the newspaper offices
and discussed our problems and
tried to inspire each other to
greater things. Such periodic jaw
Seminars help technique
not memory
sessions are essential in this
business, something like the
great speeches at half-time that
charge up the players so they can
go out and win. Weekly news-
papers are essential lonely places
to work. In large city newspapers
you're involved daily with other
people of your own profession:
You compare notes, you tell
stories, you compete with them in
a friendly way. The weekly
newspaper editor is a lot like the
teacher of the old one -room
school houses: you don't have
anyone to talk to who really
understands your frustrations.
° So it came out at the seminar
that many photographers have
ideas how they Would like to take
a picture, but that may not be the
way the subjects of the picture
think it should be taken.
Photographers want a little art, a
little something unusual in their
work. That's their professional-
ism coming out. Their readers,
however, probably couldn't give a
darn. They just want people lined
up against a wall and shot
(photographically of course).
So, these little get togethers
help the professionals recharge

wonders. We felt that way a little
coming away from the session. No
more ho - pictures
declared. t•humrom now on everywe
thing must sparkle. It work.d
fine. We went out a couple n
days later to cover a rather
routine event, spent a good deal
of time thinking how we could get
the most interesting picture and
shot them. They even, wonder of
wonders when you're really
trying, came out line when they
were developed.
Then the problem came. One of
the things that was brought up at
the seminar was to make sure
people in the pictures are
identified. It was such an
elementary thing everyone
chuckled. Well, we'd identified
them all right, were very careful
to write down all the notes
needed, The problem is that on
another assignment about 50
miles away, we'd laid down the
briefcase holding the notes and
forgotten it. So much for the
notes. So much for the artistic
pictures. So much for the pep
talk.
Some days you just can't win.

famous characters such as' Bob
Edwards --writer and practical

of lazy animals had captured a
baby dragon and put him to work.

set out to rescue the dragon, How
he outwitted the tigers, wild boar,

From. the Minister's Study
Cod is alive
BY REV. FRED H. CARSON
When a Christian receives the fullness of the Spirit; that is; when
one is baptized in the Holy Spirit as experienced throughout the history
of the Church, God becomes alive and active in our lives. No longer is
Jesus Christ just the focus of a'humdrum' type of worship, but, rather,
He becomes the one person .with whom we have our greatest
fellowship. He becomes the centre of our life'around whom everything
evolves and, because He is such an important 'part .of our life,the
reading of Scripture is no longer. a boring intellectual exercise. The
Truth of God's Word is revealed in :such`a way that we thought was
impossible.. His word becomes alive.:
Arid when we pray after receiving the outpouring of the Holy Spirit
the words no longer bounce from the walls as though they,have fallen
on deaf ears.' Instead, we experience.that :"...the Spirit helps us in our
weakness; for we do, not know how to`pray'as. we ought, but' the Spirit
Himself • intercedes for us with;'sighs'too deep ;for 'words:!" ` (Romans
8:26) This intercession'. is recognized most• fully;',1 believe, when we
submit ourselves to theSpirit and permit Hain to:Bless us :with. the new

Ontario carrots are good
You must admit • carrots are
versatile! You can eat them raw
or cooked and you can leave them
whole or serve them sliced, diced,
shredded or grated or cut into
strips or rounds. Moreover, food
specialists at the Ontario Food
Council, Ministry of Agriculture
and Food, say that carrots "go
well" at lunch or at dinner, in
salads or desserts, or as an
accompaniment to meats or other
protein foods. They suggest
these ideas for using the 2 or 3
pound poly bag of Ontario carrots
you might buy this week.
For lunch, Marinated Carrot
Salad goes great with a ham
sandwich or a hamburger or
macaroni and cheese.

Classy salad
uses tomatoes
Another classic, Nicoise
salad (pronounced nee-swa), can
be a combination of many
ingredients including potatoes,
onions, eggs, tuna and anchovies.
But, for it to be a true Nicoisc, it
must have tomatoes. This recipe
developed by food specialists at
the Ontario Food Council, Minis-
try of Agriculture and Food, is a
light, mild -flavoured version of
the famous classic, which makes
it suitable as a first course as well
as for a complete luncheon meal,
To give it a bit more "punch,"
sprinkle a few anchovy fillets over
the tops or add a few black or
green olives. To make it more
substantial, toss in a can of
drained tuna.•
To add to its attractiveness and
flavour, increase the number of
tomatoes. And whatever you do,
never eliminate tomatoes from
this salad, because it then is no
longer a Nicoise,
With Ontario greenhouse
tomatoes in good supply right
now, give it a try.
Nlcolse Salad
1 garlic clove, cut in half, 2 cups
romain lettuce in bite -size pieces,
2 cups iceberg lettuce, in bit -size
pieces, 2 cups spinach, in
bite -size pieces. 3 Ontario Green-
house tomatoes, cut into sixths, 1
cup cooked diced Ontario potato,
2 hard cooked eggs, quartered, 2
thin slices of Spanish onion,
separated into rings, 1 green
pepper, cut into strips, one
quarter cup grated Parmesan
cheese. Dressing
,3/4 cup olive oil, 2 tbsp. red wine
vinegar, 2 tbsp, lemon juice, '/z
tsp. dry mustard, '/4 tsp. salt,
Freshly ground balck pepper.
Rub inside of a . wooden salad
bowl with a garlic clove. Make a
bed of the greens in the bowl.

More info on labels
The next time you 'travel
down the aisles of your grocery
store, notice the facelift many of
the packages of food products
have received. Food specialists at
the Ontario Food Council, Minis-
try of Agriclture and Food report
that many packages have been
revised to include the more
detailed ingredient listings stip-
ulated in recent months by
revised federal government regu-
lations. In addition, bilingual
labeling can now be found on
most items, and in a few months
virtually all food items will be
labeled in both French and
English.
The list of ingredients shown
on the package label includes all
items contained in the product as
well as the specific components
of some individual ingredients.
For example, if a ready-made
frozen pizza contains mozzarella
cheese, the label will also show
the ingredients used to snake
mozzarella, '
This method of labelling is
costly to the •processor but
beneficial to the consumer. Take
the time to read labels in order to
identify any ingredients that you
may be allergic to or are rstricted
from having by your diet,
Labels now list all food
additives, many of which may not
be familiar to you, But do not
become over -concerned about
ingredients that you do not
recognize; in the majority of
cases, the product is exactly the
same as it has been for several
years, but with the new labeling
regulations, some ingredients
may be listed for the first time.
An ingredient's appearance on a
label for the first time may be an
indication that it was not required
to list previously, space was
limited on the package and an
added cost would have been
incurred in redesigning the label,
The next time you go shopping,
pick up the package and read the
label. The changes in government
regulations and the careful
preparation of the label were
made with you in mind - to let you
know more about the food you
eat.
Strawberries are popular
for home gardens
Whether you have a large
garden or are restricted to only a
small arca, strawberries certainly
fill the bill as a delectable small
fruit that is easily grown, says
Ontario Ministry of Agriculture
and Food horticulturist J.K.
Hughes.
"Strawberries can be grown
anywhere in the province, usually
in garden rows," he says. "There
arc many excellent varieties to
choose from, depending on
whether you decide on June -bear- for bulbs
ing or everbearing varieties, Most
important is to buy only healthy
plants that have an abundance of
healthy roots and well-developed
crowns.
Location of the strawberry b• eds
is important, since the fruit
prefers plenty of sun with
well -drained soil. Planting . on
raised beds will help if drainage is
poor, and working plenty of
organic material into the soil will.

According to a piece by Donald
Allen of North American News -
Blyth athletes
win .track meet
After a one day postponement
because of a wet track, 55
students from Blyth Public School
were more than ready to do their
best at the Central Region Track
Meet in Seaforth on Wednesday,
June 2,
The participants had been
selected by placing in their local
school meet, and they knew that
they faced tough competition
from the best athletes of six other
schools - Bruceficld Huron
Centennial, Clinton Public, Clin-
ton Calvin Christian, Holmcsville,
Godcrich Township, Scaforth
Public and Hullett School.
Blyth got off to a poor start in
the relay races, making careless
exchanges that cost them a few
first place finishes. Points were
scored on a ten for first, eight for
second, six for third, four for
fourth, two for fifth and one for
sixth. After the relay races, Blyth
was sitting in fourth place with 38
points.
Following the relay races, the
students separated into their age
group divisions to compete in
individual events. By the end of
• the day, Blyth had accumulated
enough points to move into first
place in the overall standings.
Totals for the day, by school
were: first, Blyth, 400 points;
second, Holmcsville, 381 points;
third, Scaforth, 366 points;
fourth, Hullett, 361 points; fifth,
Clinton, 267 points; sixth, Huron
Centennial, 223, points; seventh,
Calvin Christian, 122 points.
Two students received the
individual trophy for top points in
their division - Darryl Chalmers
won, top athlete in the Junior
Boys' Division, and Jayne Snell
won top athlete in Junior Girls'
Division.
Others who gave outstanding
performances in their age groups
were - Kurt Whitfield, third;
Philip Knox, fourth in Midget
Boys'; Kevin Coultes, fourth in
Junior Boys'; Helen Kolknan,
sixth in Junior Girls'; Anita
Hamm, second; Nancy Taylor,
fourth in intermediate Girls';
Shelley Patterson, third in Senior
Girls'; Gary Souch, fifth in Senior
Boys'.
A special thank you to all of the
students for the excellent team
effort which they put forth, and to
the many interested parents who
found time to attend.

Home warranty plan
BY MURRAY GAUNT
M.P.P. FOR HURON -BRUCE
The Provincial Government has
unveiled its plans for a long
promised home warranty plan.
All builders operating in
Ontario will have to register with
a special non-profit corporation
when the law becomes effective
this year. New houses built for
sale in Ontario, except cottages,
rental units and shell housing
which buyers finish themselves,
will be covered under warranties.
The warranties are intended to
protect buyers from faulty work-
manship and materials for the
first year, and from major
structural defects for the follow-
ing four years.
Builders who fail to meet
standards set out in the Ontario
Building Code may lose their
registration and right to construct
new honks for sale in the
province.
Thc Ontario Government spent
526,576.26 on trips by Cabinet
Ministers throughout the Prov-
ince to explain their spending
restraint programs. Of that
amount, the Treasury Ministry
spent 52,265.40 on tours
between December and March of
this year.
Jack Riddell (Lib. • Huron/
Middlesex) maintained this week
that layoffs of former Essex
Packers workers at a Hainilton
abattoir were an attempt by the
takeover company, Better Beef
Ltd., to aoid issuing severance
pay. He 'asked the Labour
Minister to ' investigate the
manoeuvre by Better Beef to
determine whether it is grounds
for ending a lease between the
Company and the Provincial
Government involving the Guelph
Correctional Centre. The Minister
undertook to look into the
situation. •
For part of this week 1 was
attending the Habitat Conference
in Vancouver as the representa•
tived of my party from Ontario.
This conference is a United
Nations Conference involving all
member U.N. nations, called to
discuss human settlement and
housing throughout the world.
The phasing out of nuclear
power and land use planning
emerged as two central issues
during the discussions.
The consensus view was that
not only should there be a
moratorium on the construction of
nuclear plants, but also a
phasing out of those now in
operation.
Canada, however, disagreed
with this viewpoint. Prime
Minister Trudeau said that
Canada would not only continue
to make nuclear power plants, but
would continue to export them.
As well as the nuclear demand
by delegates, it was also
suggested that ten percent of all
money now used for military
purposes by U.N. members be
transferred annually to a fund for
improving human settlements.
This would amount to 3 billion per
year.
Ontarip has introduced its long
overdue farm income stabliliza-
tion legislation.
The Ontario plan, which is
voluntary, offers some income
protection to growers of wheat
and certain vegetables and fruits
on the same terms as the federal
plan. This could affect less than
25 pecent of the province's
farmers.
Support under the bill would
be provided at 90 percent of the
average market price for the
previous five years, with adjust-
ments for production cost
changes in the current year.

PG.12. THE BLYTH STANDARD/JUNE 9, 1976.
BY BILL SMILEY
Recently, we watched the
Emmy awards, presented from
Hollywood by the television
industry. It was a crashing bore,
right in the midst of a television
season that is stultifyingly dull,
Despite the opportunity to
show what a fascinating medium
television can be, the show, which
seemed to go on interminably,
had almost nothing to display
aside from elegant costumes and
fancy coiffures,
Can you think of anything Tess
exciting than platoons of writers
or directors, or sound men, or
whatever, trotting up to a stage,
receiving a shiny trinket, and
speaking, every one of them, into
a microphone with the deepest
sincerity, thanking their wives,
their children, their mothers, and
eighteen guys named Max and
Hymic for the fantastic honour
they were receiving?
In an era of women's liberation,
it was significant that the
showcase for the biggest enter-
tainment industry in the world,
very, very few women won
awards.
At least when the film industry
presents its Oscar awards, amidst
the stream of inanity, one can
count on two or three witty
masters (or mistresses) of cere-
monies. How would you like to be
a Mistress of Ceremony, gentle
redcrs? It sounds sinfully
delicious.
But the television industry was
content to hire two of the biggest
grins in the business, John
Denver and Mary Tyler Moore.
They looked beautiful, and the
'Tis Show Biz
Emmy awards a crashing bore
grinned and grinned and grinned,
but the entire evening had about
as much wit and sparkle to it as a
convention of undertakers:
probably Tess.
Only attempt at humor during
the evening was a feeble ane,
with a tired stand-up comedian
telling the same old tired gags,
There were one or two attempts
at dignified speeches amid the
tawdriness and the "Gee, Mom! I
won!" atmosphere, but they were
quickly drowned in the molasses
as various personalities lined up
to pat each other an the back and
burble, "I'd just like 10 say this
was a real team effort, and
everyone pulled together, and 1
just want to thank my director,
my producer, my network, our
wonderful camera crew, our
sound people, our writer for a
fantastic script, our tremendous
cast," and so on and on.
Some of them thanked every-
one but their dog, their dentist
and their hairdresser, who
probably had more to do with the
award than any other factors.
It was pretty (lard to take just a
week after the Stanley Cup
playoffs, when we heard the sank
sort al sentimental mawk from
coaches, players and sports-
writers, until some of us,
including yours truly, wanted to
vomit,
And maybe that's what's
wrong with television today,
Don't tell me there's nothing
wrong with it.

Friends and fans of The Tommy
Hunter Show mourn the loss of
one of its top arrangers, Roy
Smith, who with two of his
children, disappeared while boat-
ing in Lake Ontario. The
Canadian music world suffers
much because of this tragedy.
CBC returns this summer with
some top series which you will
want to sec if you did not catch
them the first time around.
Beginning Sunday, June 13, for
eight weeks, the mini-series,
"The Tenth Decade" returns at
10 p.m. This series was originally
telecast in 1971 and was awarded
the Michener Award for Journal-
ism, it uses rare film, news
footage, still photos and inter-
views with the two people most
involved with Canadian history
between the years of 1957 to
1967, John Diefenbaker and
Lester B. Pearson.
The series was produced by
Cameron Graham. It will tell you
a lot about our country's history
and two great men who contri-
buted much to Canada.
A new mini-series will make its
debut on CBC Television on
Saturday, June 12. Charles
Dickens' classic talc, "David
Copperfield", will play for six
weeks at 9 p.m. Saturdays on
most CBC channels. It was first
telecast on British TV last season,
One of his most popular works,
Copperfield was written by
Dickens as a kind of autobio-
graphy. First published in
1$49.50, it is the story of a young
lad who lives with his widowed
mother and their maid until Mrs.
Copperfield marries Mr. Mord-
stone who promptly sends the boy
away to school. When his mother
dies, he begins a life of
hopelessness that he escapes only
after much struggle and pain. A
heart-warming story, it has been
a favourite of readers down
through the years. It was in fact,
the favourite book of the author
himself.
Jonathan Kahn will play the
young David Copperfield and
maid Peggotty will be portrayed
by Pat Keen.

No shortage of sealer
caps, minister says
Consumer minister Sidney
Randleman said today there is
little likelihood of a shortage of
scaler caps for the 1976 home
canning season if consumers
place orders early and avoid
hoarding.
"Judging by reports which my
ministry has received from the
industry, there should be no
problem like the shortages
experienced in the last two
years," Mr. Handleman said,
• Two Toronto companies,
Anchor Cap and Closure Corpora-
tion and Barnardin of Canada
Limited, the principal suppliers of
sealer caps in Ontario report that
production has significantly
increased- due- to the installation
of new equipment last year.
Spokesmen for both companies
told .the Ministry of Consumer
and Commercial Relations that
they are working "around the
clock" to ensure that consumer
demands for scaler caps will be
met.
"If orders are placed early,
manufacturers can forecast
demand, enabling them to gear
production runs to that level,
"consumers should not stockpile
more canning supplies than they
really need. Panic buying helped
create the serious shortages of
last year," ''the minister said.
Horne canning products,
industry officials say,. have been
in short supply for the last two
years for a number of reasons.
Initially, demand increased as
more people began preserving in
an effort to reduce food costs.
Added t• his was the fact that
preservin; "became sort of an 'in

"Then, the energy crisis
seriously cut the production of
materials used for making lids,"
the - spokesman continued.
"When consumers heard this,
they started to buy as much as
they could and supplies
disappeared,"
"However," concludes Mr.
Handleman, "with sensible buy-
ing and early ordering there
should be no problem this year."

Separate School Board
BY WILMA OKE
Faced with the Toss of two
supervisory officers in two
months' time, the Huron -Perth
County Roman Catholic separate
school board debated the problem
at a Special meeting of the board
May 31.
loses two officers in month
Joseph Tokar, superintendent
of special services and Alexander
Easton, superintendent of pro-
grams have both resigned effect-
ive July 31.
For . almost two hours in
commitce of the whole the board
members thrashed out the pro -
33 students at work
forM.V.C.A.'
More than 7,800 students
will be employed across the
province this summer, through
the Ontario Youth Secretariate's
Experience '76 Program. Now in
its fourth consecutive year, the
Experience Program is designed
once again to offer jobs that will
allow students to put their
education, enthusiasm and
resources to productive use.
The Ministry of Natural
Resources is again the largest
single employer, offering more
than 2,500 jobs in the field of
natural resource management
and development. About 1.200 of
these job opportunitie are avail-
able through the Province's 38
Conservation Authorities.
Program 130 (formerly
S.W.E.E.P.) at the Maitland
Valley Conservation Authority
will include 33 local students
work at various environmental
enhanceiltent projects within the
Maitland watershed. The format
of this year's program at
M.V.C.A. has been changed
somewhat from the past, in that
the summer staff will be working
directly under the supervison of
the regular Authority field staff.
Work projects for 7 crews (located
at the Falls Reserve C.A.,
Wawanosh Valley C.A., Galbraith
C.A., and Brussels, C.A.) will
thus be assigned and co-ordina-
ated by the Authority Superin-
tendent, Mr. Graham Jackson.
The Senior Supervisor's posi-
tion for this year has been filled
by Rob Keip of Formosa. In
addition to conducting the
Authority's regular Information
and Education program, Rob will
be resonsible for co-ordinating
the administrative aspects of the
summer program.
Blake Ferguson of Gorie will
act as this year's senior tech-
nician. A 25 year wildlife
management plan for the
Wawanosh Valley C.A., vegeta-
tive inventories and drainage
mapping for the watershed are
some of the projects in which
Blake will be involved.
Ann Dalton of Goderich will be
applying knowledge gained
through her four years in the
geography program at Wilfred
Laurier University, as she com-
plets infra -red mapping and
analysis, updating of neap infor-
mation from 1975 air photo-
graphs, and designing a revised
watershed map.
John Elliott of Brussels, the
third Program Technician, will be
involved with historical studies of
the Brussels and Gorrie Mills,
design plans for interior renova-
tions of the Authority display
unit, and assisting with the
Program's information and
municipal work projects,
The clerical work for the
program will be done by
Mary•Lou Mazer, a third year
student of Resources Manage-
ment at the Univcsity of Guelph.
The 1976 program is structured
so that technical and supervisory
.lobs are for a period of 14 weeks,
14 post -secondary subt'oremen
and labourers wilI work for 13
wccks. and 14 secondary school
studentswill be employed for 7
weeks.
Students employed as subfore.
men for this year include Pam
(;Tool of Gadshill, Marilynnc
Wide of Clinton; Rob Weeks of
Listowel; Heather Jewell of
Goderich; Kathy Fines of 13Iue•
vale; Candace Kidd of Atwood
and 13renda Johnston of I3elgrave.
The regional safety and opera•
tions training session occupied
most of these people for their first
week of employment.
Postsecondary school labour-
ers presently on the job include
Wendy Mortimer and Shirley
McLaughlin of Listowel, Beth
Chowen and Janette Ginn of
Clinton, Judy Harkness of
Marathon; Barb Elliott of
Brussels, and Anne Welwood of
Wingham. To date, the work
crews have been planting trees,
cutting grass, conducting clean-
up of conservation areas and
camp -sites, preparing the new
Falls Reserve campground for
seeding and clearing brush.
In addition to these and other
Authority projects, the summer
staff will also be involved in
various work projects for the
Authority's member municipali-
ties. Painting, landscaping,
clean-up and some erosion control
work are some of the jobs
presently proposed.
With the addition of 14 high
school students, who will begin
work on July 5, this years's
program should be as construct-
ive, and even exceed the
productivity of programs in the
past.
bleni of replacing the officers,
Just ,before 10. p.m. the board
went into a general meeting and
the lone press representative was
allowed into the board room.
The heated debate centred
around whether to advertise for a
supervisory officer or a superin-
tendent of special services,
Finally in a recorded vote, asked
for by Howard Shantz, on a
motion to advcrtisc a superin-
tendent of special services, eight
trustees voted in the affirmative -
Ronald, Marcy,, Joseph Looby,
William Kinahan, Donald
Crowley, Vincent Young, F.J.
Vere, Ted Geoffrey and Greg
Fleming. Opposed were Howard
Shantz, David Tcahen, Michael
Connolly, John O'Drowsky and
Francis Hickncll.
Next came the recorded vote,
again called for by Howard
Shantz, on a motion to advertise
as soon as possible, for a
superintendent of programs to fill
the second vacancy. Those
opposed wanted to hire only a
supervisory officer and not name
the position. The affirmative vote
carried nine to four. Opposed to
the superintendent of program
were Howard Shantz, David
Tea hen, John O'Drowsky a nd
Michael Connolly. with the
remaining nine trustees
approving.
A committee was named to
interview the applicants • Mr.
Marcy, Mr. Geoffrey, John
