The land in question is situated just south of the Senior Citizens apartments and is owned by the T.A. Gordon estate. After many months corresponding with Ixnth village lawyer Paul Ross and estate lawyer Mr. Markson, Toronto, village council was prepared to resort to expropri- ation. This would entail several years to get through the tangle of red tape. At a meeting Wednesday night council learned from solicitor Paul Ross that as a result of a personal meeting with the estate's lawyer the matter will hopefully be cleared up in a natter of months. "It is an intersting problem concerning the land" said Mr. Ross. The land is owned by a limited Ontario company which did not Tile under the Corporation act and the Ontario government dissolved the company. The situation amounts to the company owning the land but not existing. The solution is a rare one where affidavits have to be filed with the proper authorities and the court in turn will return the land to the owners. The heirs to the estate live in and around the Toronto area and according to their lawyer have agreed to sell the land to Blyth. Mr. Markson pointed out that the procedure is costly and that could cause a delay. Council agreed to pay up to $500 for court costs involved. Council also recommended that corre- spondence between the lawyers be forward- ed to council so they they can keep abreast of the details as well as having Mr. Ross keep in touch by phone every two weeks to make • sure the matter is being handled as speedily as possible. In other business councillor Bill Howson reported on a meeting he had with Keith Roulston and Eugene McAdam, building inspector7concerning the new addition to the Memorial Hall. The original design called for a sloped roof on the addition to meet with the hall roof. But the design created a trough between the rooves and the amount of snow in the winter could lead to problems. To remedy the situation the adjoining root' line will be flat rather than sloped. Councillor Albert Wasson reported about a recent Fire Area Board meeting, Members discussed the possibility of a new fire truck. Rules set up by the government make it mandatory for municipalities to purchase new trucks every few years. A new truck is due in 1983. Cost could be approximately 590,000, of which 19% or $16,000 would be Blyth's share. Council agreed to look into the matter further if the board does not go ahead with their plan. Requests from Ontario disaster areas for funding were filed by council. "We have had some people in our own a)mmunity flooded out and didn't offer them any funding as a municipality said councillor Howson. 'Af'ter some discussion council felt that they didn't want to set a policy of meeting requests for funding. Although the Woodstock plight is closer to home, council suggested waiting until hearing from other councils just what was donated. Council also recommended that the clerk send a letter to the London Free Press protesting the stopping of delivery in areas north of Clinton. Council sympathized with the paper's rising costs and suggested that patrons would pay more to have a daily paper in their community. FAB controversy Hullett not interested Hullett is not interested in buying fire protection from the town of Seaforth. Councillors agreed at a meeting Monday to meet with Seaforth and other area fire board rnembers to renegotiate the present Seaforth Fire Area Board. Seaforth announced this summer that it is pulling out of the Fire Area Board (FAB) and forming its own department and offered to sell fire protection to the present township members of FAB. The townships involved include McKillop, Tuckersmith, Hibbert and Hullett. In the past Seaforth has been having problems negotiating firehydrant rentals with the board. If Seaforth leaves the board the town will lose its share of the fire equipment. In other business council accepted the tile drain inspector's report on lot 4, concession 8, lot 12, concession 8, north half of lot 6. A bylaw was passed to impose special annual drainage rates upon lands where money has been borrowed under the Tile Drainage act, Building permits for the following were approved: Lloyd Stewart, Robert Anderson, A. Dykstra, Lorne Snell, Wayne Kennedy, John Benjamins, Bruce Bergsma, C. and J. East, and Hugh Flynn. Council viewed a preliminary report on the Hellinga Drain but will discuss the report in full October 15. Present was Mr, Shiefflett from Gamsby, Mannerow along with four affected owners. Council accepted the proposal that Dave Anderson pay the difference between the 18" to the 21" tile. Lawrence Taylor's tile drain loan application was refused by council on the grounds that the tile was already installed before the application was re- ceived. Council voted to engage Canadian Sales Tax consultants to check into township overpayment of sales tax. The road superin- tendent was instructed to apply for an interim road subsidy, and advertise for snowplowing for the winter. Council voted to pay $750 rent for the council chambers to the road department. Threshermen president resting John Ellacott is resting quietly at home after blacking out Saturday at the Pioneer Threshermens Reunion, Blyth. Mr, Ellacot is president of the Pioneer Thresher and Hobby Association and is one of the key organizers of the annual event. While helping getting corn ready for the roast Saturday evening, Mr, Ellacott fell and struck his head, Local firemen were called to the scene and he was taken by ambulance to Wingham hospital and then London, Mr, Ellacott said Monday that he had been working very hard for several days preparing for the weekend event and doctors thought that a small clot of blood had caused the problem. Although warned by his doctor to take things easy, Mr. Ellacott was again at the reunion Sunday. He is scheduled to have tests later this week, Mr, Ellacott is 67 and lives in London, TILT PLEASE — Karen Lee was a thirsty young lady Saturday. Helping her to the bottle of apple cider is her brother Kevin. Both these youngsters were enjoying the Pioneer Threshermens Reunion in Blyth on the weekend, (Standard Photo) Blyth subdivision delayed it looks like the planned subdivision for north of Blyth has met with yet another snag and as a result the work will be delayed until next spring. Ronan Dzus, Huron county planner, informed council Wednesday evening that the Ministry of Housing will not finalize the Gravco subdivision. The Blyth secondary plan as it stands now restricts mobile home parks. Mr. Dzus offered council an amendment to the plan, which would allow for the mobile home subdivision. The modification is from a Hensall policy. Art Clark of Maitland Engineering didn't attend ..he meeting but had notified the clerk that he had received a copy of the proposed amendment and could see no objection. Council reviewed the changes but were inclined to withdraw one section which requires the developer to submit details of individual mobile home lots showing the location,size, and types of foundation, parking space, patio, storage buildings, fences and landscaping. Council felt this could be submitted before building permits for each lot were submitted, but not for plan approval. Mr. Dzus assured council that when applying to a Central Mortgage and Hous- ing Corporation for financing the same would be required. The whole matter was put off until next month's meet- ing when both Roman Dzus and Art Clark will be present to go over the modification.

Bodmin Canada, is a small hamlet located 2 miles east of Belgrave. Ross Proctor, one of the decendants of the original Bodmin folk to settle the area, spoke to the members Wednesday evening about the hamlet in the Belgrave WI hall, The three farms surrounding Bodmin today were settled by the Wilkinson, Stubbs nd Proctor families and all these farms are still owned by the decendents of those families, Settlement came in 1850 with the eventual construction of a sawmill, flour mill, and school. But it only lasted 40 years.' Mr, Proctor who lives on his farm called Bodmin, told members that when the railroad and highway missed the village, life windled and eventually disappeared, On the other hand Bodmin, England, enjoys 7000 years of history and illustrated in a book on display were pictures of stone formations in Bodmin England that re- semble those at Stonehenge but on a smaller scale, Prior to the meeting the Brussels Pipe Band entertained outside the hall, Mrs, Thornton McBurney gave a reading and the ladies quartet sang. Mrs. Simpson gave a report about her attendance at the Annual Ontario Historical Society Meeting, Membership was recorded at 157 with the majority coming from the north end of the county.

(BS photo) THE BLYTH STANDARD, SEPTEMBER 12, 1979 — 3 From Me to You Dog fights BY RHEA HAMILTON When I was about nine years old there was a dog fight at school. I was among the oldest there of the small group and we had been in the yard early waiting for the teacher to come to unlock the school. It was a large one room affair and all of us played together like one family and we fought like a family. When the dogs entered the yard and spied each other, many of us knew there was something going on. But when the snarling started and the dogs approached eachother, we didn't wait for the fight before seeking a hiding place. It was difficult but about 10 of us managed to squeeze into and on top of an old hollow stump. From there we watched the fur fly and I don't think there was one among us who enjoyed the spectacle. Once the teacher drove into the yard the dogs broke and ran, almost as fast as we ran to the teacher. This whole scene flashed before my eyes when received a news release from the Ontario Humane Society warning about the increase of dogfighting in Ontario for so called "sport," The dogs are trained to kill another dog on sight and large bets are made for the winner. The illegality of it all forces the fighting under- ground ) making it doubly difficult for the Society to find these arenas and put a stop to this cruel practice. If you have never seen a dog fight you should count your lucky stars. We have a doberman who used to tear our little lab apart. She wouldn't bother the shep- herd but seemed to take great offense at the smaller dog and often used to terrorize it by standing on top of the sleeping lab and growling. Recently the Humane Soc- iety raided a location near Hamilton and seized a num- ber of specially trained dogs. They tried to rehabilitate them but to no avail. They were incapable of living a normal life. If they caught sight of another dog they would immediately go for the throat and it was impossible for any one person to hold them back, The only course of action was to destroy the dogs. But it will not stop there. Right now in the back barns of Ontario dogs are being specially bred and raised for fighting. Without inspectors on the job all day every day this practise will continue. The government has allo- . cated funds to the Society to help locate these illegal gambling and fighting rings. But this just isn't enough. More public support both in writing to the government to allocate more funds and private funding to the Society as well as disclosing any suspicions to the Society about dog fights would help. Dog fights are not a pretty. sight and animal suffering should not be a game. We as higher intelligent creatures should be more responsible to our fellow creatures.

Councillors and clerk alike have been receiving calls from ratepayers complaining. These untended animals scatter garbage, destroy property and generally terrorize both children and senior citizens. Solutions to the matter have ranged from turning the other cheek to loading the shotgun and taking the matter in hand. But no matter how the situation is handled it never fails to make another appearance a few months down the road. The problem does not lie with the animals themselves, but with their owners. A little care and consideration for others goes a long way. Chains and leashes may be purchased from any of the hardware stores. The one fear that should remain in the back of many owners' minds is the close proximity of the rural country side and the possible occurrence of rabies. Living in such a small rural community where the open lands and bush are only yards away, there is always a chance that pets running at large will come in contact with rabid animals and carry the virus into the village. The importance of taking care of your pet cannot be stressed enough. If pet owners cannot be responsible for their pets then they must do without. The walk%/ be good If you had to walk a few blocks to pick up your daily paper how many days would you be inclined to go out and get it? We may see many local people cutting back on their newspaper reading in the near future. The London Free Press, in an effort to curtail rising costs and still make their newspaper an inexpensive source of information and entertainment, have stopped early morning home delivery in our area. All of us can sympathise with the age old problem of rising costs but some may be ready to pay a little more for a daily paper to come into their home rather than be forced to pay higher mailing Costs and then still pot be guaranteed a daily paper. Besides cutting home delivery, the London paper has closed its Huron News Bureau and already there has been a decline of local news. All this cutting back leaves our area wide open for the entrance of another daily paper that is willing to forge ahead and take over. But until that time comes there will be many of us out for our early morning walk to fetch the daily paper who will benefit from both the exercise and the fresh air imposed upon us all in the name of news.

Ark for ,l'prriat introduction price, and tern., Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston Let's get the truth The fuss over nuclear power has died down a bit of late with no resolution in sight. For the proponents of nuclear power, of course, the very fact the storm has cased is a victory for them. As long as public criticism stays silent then it is a tacit approval as far as Ontario Hydro and other nuclear industry people are concerned. Even when the uproar in the aftermath of Harrisburg and the Schultz revelations about the operations at the Bruce station was at its highest people such as Premier Davis were saying that nuclear power must continue to be expanded. One of the people who provided some of the shocks during that controversial time a few short months back was Dr, William Porter, the man who headed the commis- sion looking into electric power planning in Ontario. While the politicians and utility experts were assuring us that something like the Three Mile Island accident couldn't happen at an Ontario I'ttwer plant Dr. Porter said it could and probably would if the use of atomic power increased. He pointed out that while the utility people tell you that there's only a one -in -a million chance of something going wrong those odds decrease each year by the sheer fact that there are more and more power plants being built. If there is a one -in a -million chance of an accident at one plant, there is a two•in"a'•million chance when you have two plants and so on. Today with so many power plants being built the odds are getting too close for comfort, At the time he made these statements it was a refreshing bit of candour on Dr, Porter's part. We had been told for so long that nothing could go wrong and yet it had and we were still being told that nothing had really gone wrong, that it had all been blown out of proportion. We just didn't know who we could trust any more in this complicated issue. Here was a voice with some honesty. Yet if the honesty was refreshing from Dr, Porter at this point, it became absolutely frightening a couple of weeks ago when he was interviewed on a 'television public affairs program, an interview which strangely received little attention at the time, Again Dr, Porter was quite candid about the risks of nuclear power but he said the risks were worth the benefits, Even if there was a nuclear accident, and up to 25,000 people were killed, he said, he'd endorse the use of nuclear energy. We have no other choice, he claimed, His backup for this insane argument was that after all we needed electricity to save lives in places like hospitals. He also argues that other things such as airplanes were also dangerous but we continued to use them because of their benefits, And indeed over the years we probably have killed off 25,000 people in airplanes. We've also massacred thousands more in automobiles and continued to use them. But the flaw in the argument is that in the case of airplanes and automobiles, people know the risks they are taking. They accept the risks for the benefits. We haven't been told the risks and have only been sold the benefits. In addition with the danger of planes and cars it is the people getting the benefits who take the risks. It is easy for someone say in London, to say the risk of nuclear power is worth it for the benefits received but it isn't him that is taking the risk, He's rolling the dice with the lives of the people living around the Bruce plant taking all the risks. And with cars and planes we risk only lives, not the immense changes that radiation leaks can bring to the whole environment, Of course the argument about needed electricity for hospitals is s'o ridiculous it hardly dignifies response. Our hospitals already have electricity to save lives. The (Continued on Page 13) } LOOKS LIKE BEEF FOR LUNCH—Belgrave Kinsmen were on the spot early Sunday morning getting the beef onto the spits for the barbecue beef lunch and supper they were serving at the Huron Threshermens reunion. The fires were started before nine a.m. and the smaller roasts were on the lunch menu and the larger ones for supper. THE BLYTH STANDARD, SEPTEMBER 12, 1919 — 5 THAR' SHE BLOWS -That may be a whaling term but when the old steam engines let their steam off by sounding those shrill whistles it can apply here. Eldon Demering, Harriston, was busy early Sunday getting his steamer into the heat of things. Steam engines came from all over Ontario and the States to take part in the annual Threshermen's Reunion.

Huron F of A wants action on foreign ownership of land BY ALICE GIBB Members of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture took their campaign against foreign ownership of Ontario's farmland one step further at their regional meeting in Belgrave Thursday night. Federation members from the north of the county strongly supported a resolution put forward by Vince Austen asking that "the Ontario Federation of Agriculture request the Ontario government to act quickly to prevent further purchases by absentee foreign farmland as an investment and "Ontario residents cannot compete with them in money markets for the capital they require to purchase land" and "foreign absentee ownership of large parcels of land in any given arca causes deterioration of our rural community." The resolution will be forwarded to the next meeting •of OFA directors in Toronto, and a report on their action will be brought back to Huron County members at their annual meeting in Brussel s on Oct, 19. Before presenting the resolution, audience members had challenged guest speaker Floyd Jenkins, the regional assess- ment commissioner for Huron and Perth counties, to defend statements he had made earlier in the week. Mr. Jenkins had been quoted as saying he felt the issue of foreign land ownership in Huron County had been exaggerated in the press. Mr. Jenkins told the audience any foreign ownership purchase of land by a non- resident of the country is subject to a 20 per cent land transfer tax, and that a survey of land transactions showed reports of absentee ownership were exaggerated. Adrian Vos, one of the federation members who first raised the issue of absentee ownership, said all this proved was "that the buyers have smart lawyers." Mr Vos claimed many foreign investors are hiding their involvement in Ontario registered companies. Mr. Jenkins said, "I wouldn't disagree completely that there isn't foreign money in the Huron County farming industry." Vince Austen told the audience he had researched the sale of 1,865 acres of land in his township. Although the sale was to a registered Ontario company, on further research he discovered the company was made up of four "tenants in common," all residents of the Republic of West Germany. Companies which are registered in Ontario aren't subject to the 20 per cent land 1 transfer tax paid when land is sold to a non-resident of the country. Mr. Jenkins said if the company was legally registered with the Ontario govern- ment, then "that's legal and that's possible," REGIONAL DIRECTORS During the meeting, the federation members elected their three regional directors, who represent them at the OFA directors' meetings in Toronto, and delegates to the annual OFA convention. The regional director for North West Huron is Merle Gunby of Ashticld Town- ship. North Wcst Huron includes Ashfield, East and Wcst Wawanosh and Colborne Townships.

The proponents of nuclear power are right when they say that it's either build more power plants or get along without some of the luxuries we might have in the coming years. Those who question the expansion of nuclear power must ask themselves if they're ready to make that sacrifice, The politicians and planners are probably right that most of the population would rather take the risks than give up the luxuries they feel are their rights. But the politicians and planners are dishonest in not telling people the real facts and telling them the alternatives straight from the shoulder. We need to be Jim Phelan at camp Jim Phelan of Auburn Club spent last week at the Provincial Junior Farmer Leadership Training Camp at Bark Lake in Haliburton C'ounty. .lin) is one of 4 young people representing Huron Junior Farmers at this camp, beim attended by righty del from across Ontar- io. During the week, each member is expected to pro- vide leadership to the pro- gram in various ways, whether it be planning the evening social event, or vespers, sharing a camping skill or working on other told the truth about the dangers just as Dr. Porter told us and we also need to be told we have a choice, that by conservation we can reduce our demand for power and reduce the need for atomic power. The people in control of the utilities, however, don't want us to have that choice apparently. They want to go on our merry, wasteful ways even if it means thousands get killed in an accident, Ontario Hydro is inexcuseable in • its deceit. Nearly every day we hear about this or that small happening at the Bruce plant, each time being assured it is completely harmless. We get so tired of this daily report that we begin to think that Hydro officials are giving us all the facts. It is only much later that we find out that while a worker stubbing his toe yesterday was widely reported, a year or so ago the activities. "Personal" leadership development is stressed through discussion and group experiences. Sessions on communication, program planning, leisure activity and other topics of importance to local Junior Farmer Clubs are a key part of the camp. On their return home delegates arc expected to use their new skills and abilities in community and Junior Farmer programs. I'he Junior Farmer Lead- ership 'Training Camp is crrnducted by the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food. Lots of fire calls Blyth firemen have been having their share of calls this past week. Thursday firemen were called to aid Cathy Bromley.

The alarm was again sounded Friday when a car in front of Gordon Powell's Auburn, caught fire. The fire was out before firemen ar- rived. Saturday firemen responded to a call to help John Ellacott who was un- conscious at the Blyth arena grounds. Monday firemen put out a truck fire at Henry Farms Feed lot on County Road 25. The truck was destroyed inside. The fire started under the hood while Ron Henry was rounding up cattle. The truck was ten years old.
