(Photo by Hamilton) HPRCSS gets raise BY WILMA OKE A 1981.82 contract settlement was ratified by the Huron -Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board at a special meeting Wednesday night. The contract had been ratified by the teachers on the last day of the school, June 26.

Annual experience increments increase the cost to the board by 11.96 per cent. The 1980-81 salary grid has been increased by 5 per cent for the period September to December, 1981 with a further 9.02 per cent commencing January. 1982.

Board chairman Ronald Murray of Dublin stated: "I think myself it is an inflationary contract. It puts us in the position of negotiating on the basis of an increase of 14.2 per cent as of September 1. 1982." Mr. Murray called for a recorded vote and he was one of the four who opposed the contract. Eight voted for it. Two trustees were absent for the special meeting. Jeannette Eybergen of Stratford and Wil- liam Kinahan of Lucknow. Voting for were: Vincent Young of Goderich, Lorraine Dever- eaux of Seaforth: Greg Fleming of Crediton.

Voting against, Ronald Murray, Tim McDonnell of Gadshill, Keith Montgomery of Wingham.and Ernest Vanderschot of St. Marys. Mr. Young said the split grid was for the benefit of the board and he commended the teachers for having a keen interest in having the board stay within their budget. "We will be right on budget by the end of December with the five per cent. I would have liked to have given more to the teachers." There are 132 full time equivalent teachers in the system. Volume 90 -- No. 29 r Huron welcomes cattleman's aid BY STEPHANIE LEVESQUE The recently announced S30 million emergency pro- gram for beef feeders has received mixed reviews from those affected. Both the Huron and Perth Cattlemen's Association wel- comed the help and George Johnston of R.R. 4, Listowel, the president of the Perth group said the financial aid "is badly needed". The president of the Huron group, Neil Stapleton of R.R. 2, Auburn said, "the feedlot men are pleased." Agriculture and Food Min- ister Lorne Henderson an- nounced the program recent- ly. He and Ontario Treasurer Frank Miller worked the program for emergency pay- ment of S40 per animal for slaughter cattle. "The high cost of grain and energy combined with the high cost of borrowing money put many slaughter attle producers into a loss position," Mr, Henderson said in a press release. "In addition, when they sold their cattle for slaugther, they received less than they had originally paid for them." The payments will be based on the 1980 sales of finished cattle and, to quali- fy, a farmer must have sold at least 10 animals in 1980. Details of the program will appear on application forms which will be available at agricultural representatives' offices shortly. Mr. Stapleton said his association met the night the program was announced and the feeling was the money should have been spread more fairly to beef produc- ers. "I'm afraid to look into the eyes of my netgnbour," said Mr. Stapleton explaining that his neighbour might have stockers and be in a loss position, but not receive any grants from the government. The Perth association met July 13 and Mr, Johnston reported on the opinions expressed. "It (the program) is of help b the agriculture industry in general because (the money) will go back to the industry in some form," saki Mr. John. ston. The Perth usociation felt an upper limit of 1,000 head should be in place. There is no upper limit, but there is a minimum limit of 10 cattle. The payment should be calculated by a little more sophisticated method, said Mr. Johston. it was suggest- ed it be based on a weight gain basis rather than per head. The example given was that one farmer could buy a attlebeast at 600 pounds and ship it at 1,200 pounds whereas another farmer could buy an animal at 1,000 pounds and ship it at 1,150 pounds and both would receive 540 per head. It was added that the weight gain would be based on the difference between the pur- chase weight and the ship- ping weight. At present, the Ontario Farm Income Stabilization Commission and the Ontario Cattlemen's Association are discussing the possibility of a beef -calf stabilization pro- gram gram beginning in 1981. Mr. Henderson also indi- cated that the government is reviewing a broad range of other programs for Ontario agriculture. "1 sure hope so," said Mr. Slap 1eton. Howie Morenz new play's topic Hio:key in August it's hard to believe in snow and ice when the mercury's soar- ing and the air conditioner's roaring. but die- hard sports fans can start the season early at the Blyth Summer Festival this year. Fire on tee, a new musical play about Mitchell -born hockey star Howie Morenz opens August 4 at Blyth Memorial Hall, and runs through the season until August 22. Fire on Ice tells the story of Howie Morenz. who was born in Mtichell. in 1902_ Howie began playing hockey, or shinny, as it was called. on the ponds and river of Mit- chell, as there were no indoor rinks available for the young people of the town to play on. Equipment was rudimen- tary to say the least. Protec- tive equipment often consist- ed of only magazines or Eaton's catalogues strapped to the legs. Coal or frozen "horse buns" served as pucks. Howie started making a name for himself at a very early age. His family roved to Stratford when he was fourteen. and he soon started playing in the City Industrial Leagues and in the Midget League. In 1918 Stratford won the championship of the area leagues, largely duc to H' s e's outstanding play All this expertise did not go unnoticed. and Howie wa approached several times h‘ scouts from the majoi leagues. In 1923 he signed a contract with the Montreal Canadirn:. He spent elesen years with the Canadiens. and became a star with the fans in his first year there. He was called the "Babe Ruth" of hockey, and esti]. blished a reputation as the fastest and most determined player they had every known, Please turn to page 4 China painting coming to Blyth China painting has been makirig a comeback in recent years and a demonstration will be taking place at the Blyth Saga with Evelyn Gag- non, Tillsonburg, showing off some of the work she has been doing over the last eight years. Mrs. Gagnon started out when the art wa#odying and has noticed a great comeback recently to nostalgia and a renewed interest. Although self taught she has gained enough exper- ience and knowledge to teach approximately 30 people in her own area. No two pieces are alike and she tends to favour flowers among the designs she paints on cups and saucers. plates, tear drop earrings and pendants and bracelets. it takes her five hours a day of solid work to keep up with the demand for her produo`ts. No two pieces are alike and while many of them will take on an average three firings in the kiln to get the colour right. some pieces could take up to 16 firings. Mineral based paints are applied to glazed china and fired to get the desired colour. Mrs. Gagnon has had to a lot of research into the colours to know how they will react to the heat and what they will reproduce. Even the amount of paint applied is crucial. Too much paint will cause chipping and too tittle will not give the depth of colour needed to make a striking image. Mrs. Gagnon considers all her work a labour of love and enjoys talking to people about her work. She will be visiting the Blyth Saga Thur sdav afternoon. BLYTH SiANDnRD. JULY xY. 19e1 East Wawanos i ta ces bridge over pit WINGHAM ADVANCE East Wawanosh council has decided to postpone am decision on acquiring a gra• vel pit for township use. After some discussion at a meeting recently. councillors expressed a reluctance to purchase property for a pit because of the possibility of having to construct a new bridge on the 10th line. Councillor Jim Taylor said he thought council has "an obligation to a bridge before we buy a pit. There's lots of, grace) in the township: this is masbe not the time." Other council members echoed his sentiments and added there would hase to he a substantial increase in the price of gravel to justifs buying a township pit. Last month council appoint- ed Road superintendent Ralph Campbell to make inquires into the possibility of the tow nship acquiring a pit of its own. Since then council received a letter from Mason Haile% Real Estate of Blvth regard- ing the possibility of pur- chasing the farm of Garth and Dianne Walden. Lot 33. Con. 4. for gravel. The letter quoted an ask ing price of S190.000 for the entire 123 -acre parcel iii land or 115,000 for the wooded area and the frontage on the property. Councillors decided against the proposal for two reasons. First. they said they fold the asking price is too high and second, there is a definite possibility that a new bridge will have to he con- structed on the 10th line. Ken Dunn of B.M. Ross and Associates of Godcrich currently- is studying the bridge stress factors. He will make his findings known to council in a report, but it is not known when that report will he submitted. Council decided to file Mr. Bailey's letter and will pos- sibly reconsider the matter within the next year. In other business. Valerie Bolton of R.R. 1. Belgrave attended to solicit council's support for a lobby which will enable Blyth residents to call Wingham toll•free. Ms. Bolton said the sit• uation presents an inequity to people on the Blyth ex• change in that they must call long distance to talk to many of their neighbors. She urged council to exert pressure on Bell for toll•free dialing from Blyth to Wing - ham even though the number of calls placed 11 slight k under the required 60 per cent mark. A representative from Bell Telephone is scheduled to meet with arca federation of agriculture members in the near future to discuss the situation and Ms. Bolton said it would be a good time for the township to make its voice heard. Councillor Don Schultz said it certainly would be an advantage to have toll•free dialing in every other direc- tion. so why not to Blyth also. Council decided to support Ms. Bolton in her cause and to assist her in any - was possible, Mr. Taylor, council's rep- resentative to the Belgrave Community Centre Board. said the board will pay its audit fees with revenues generated by its July 12 family picnic to be held in Belgrave.

Mr. Liocktsis lost 29 chickens and five ducks on June 24 after an attack by two or more dogs. The township offered S5O to con pensation to Mr. Liocktsis. Council agreed to pay it% 1981 levy of 53,902 to the Maitland Valley Conserva• tion Authority. Council approved a grant of $100 to the Ontario Special Olympics Inc. to aid the group in the leasing of sports. accommodation and training facilities for athletes and coaches.

Whoever had posses- sion of the ark commandeer- ed powers from Heaven and as one archeologist com• mented, it was like a short wave signal to God. Now who could ignore that type of power when dealing with the second world war? Indiana Joe or Dr. Jones a professor of archeology. is the hero played by H: arri- son Ford who movie goers will remember as Hans Solo in Star Wars. He is the classic hero. unassuming yet powerful when needed. His humour is touching and he fights for every move he makes. Nothing comes easy yet problems are accepted as challenges that must be over• conte. The German N:1yi s are the classic stereotype with one grinning black•coated creat- ure with that %nortirtk hide- ous chuckle made famous by Edward G. Robinson so many years ago. And then there is the romantic angle. Karen Allen plays the part of Marion. the attractive colleague's daugh• ter who has seethed with hate and unrequited love for Indiana Joe for many years before. She holds the key to the puzzle that will lead the hero to the burial spot of the ark. Being vastly independ• ent and not to be outdone she adds to the plot rather than detracting from it. While the only romantic interludes are left to the last quarter of show there is no doubt in the viewer's mind that she is a valuable key to the picture and cannot by lightly ignored like so many female leads. The movie is purely enter• tainiftg and moves with such Tight and quick speed that the loose ends are tied up before you know it. Nothing is laid out easily for the hero and he must fight and work for every clue he gets and then some. The chase scenes are classic, Indiana Joe always seems to catch up and his adversary.Belloch, another archeologist working for the Germans, plays upon Dr. Jones' res pect for the ark and has the same strength that fires our hero. I will not pursue any more comments about the movie, for fear that I will let out too much of the suspense or surprise for you. Raiders of the Lost Ark is a must and I am sure that you will succumb to the charm of Indiana Joe. ee.eeee.e.e If you happened to read about the paint dilemma last week you be curious to know that I painted over all the work I did last weekend. The navy blue. while bright and quite attractive. did not lend itself to our little porch. We ended up buying a second quart of paint to cover the first coat. This time the colour is a pale blue and suits both of us. Now I just have to get busy and get the rest of the painting done before I get lazy and decide the porch can wait another year.

Enjoy the flowers Those of us who live in and around the village of Blyth often get used to the scenery. But for visitors or even those just passing through to cottage country Blyth is seen as a clean and scenic little village and many notice us on their tour through. We owe the local horticultural group a cheer for all their fine work and planning in keeping their gardens at the village's entrance and elsewhere looking so nice. We have come to expect the bright gardens just like we expect the streets to be kept clean and garbage cleaned up regularly. But like everything else, without that effort from so many the whole effect would be lost in trash and weeds. When it comes time for the group to be soliciting memberships don't hesitate to spend a buck or two. With these funds and grants from council the horticultural group is able to keep the gardens and hanging planters stocked and looking nice. Stop and take a look at the gardens around the village and take a moment to appreciate the free labour of others. We know the tourists do. Where are you parking Cars, cars and more cars. Two years ago we had a little reckoning over the issue of local employers and employees parking on the main street and taking up valuable parking space for patrons and consumers. While many park around the corner or in the municipal parking lot located north of Memorial Hall on the east side of Queen Street there are still a few people who persist in locating their cars directly in front of their businessess or in front of their neighbours'stores. Help each other by helping the shopper and park around the corner. A penny earned is a penny saved in this day of tight economies and hurried consumers. Howie Morenz new play Continued from page 1 After eleven years w tth the Canadiens. Howie had one had season, although "had" was only in "Morenz vela• tive terms, He was traded to the Chicago Black Hawks for one year. but then returned to the Canadiens in 1936. In 1937, halfway through his first season on returning to the Canadiens, Howie suffered a freak accident on the ice. A hard check, a skate caught in the boards. a twist and Howie ended up on the ice with a leg fractured in five places. Howie was hospi- talized for several months, and although the medical prognosis for recovery seemed hopeful, Howie, chafed at the inactivity, and worried constantly about his future in hockey. His room was always crowded with his fans and well-wishers, for whom he always kept up a cheery and carefree front. On March 8, 1937, he suffered a heart attack and died shortly after. at the age of thirty- four. Sports fans throughout the nation mourned his passing. His funeral service was held in the Montreal Forum, and 15.000 people jammed the stands and thousands more lined the streets of his funer- al procession. Throughout his life. Howie was honoured with almost every award of the hockey community. He won the Hart Trophy several times. He was one of the first players to be named to the Hockey Hall of Fame, and in 1950. he was named the Hockey Player of the Half -Century. The Blyth play, Fire on Ice, recreates the atmos- phere of excitement and big business speculation that surrounded the major league hockey teams at the time of Howie's greatness. It was at that time that the hockey leagues began their period of great expansion. The play is adapted from an original script by Keith Roulston, who is well known for his past successes such as McGillicuddy's Lost Week- end, His Own Boss and The Shortest Distance Between Two Points. It features the original tunes of John Roby, who wrote the musical for one of Blyth's plays in the 1980 season, The Life That Jack Built. David Fox directs the production, and the cast features William Dunlop, Graham McPherson, Sam Robinson, Frank Scott and Keith Thomas.

(Photo by Brown) Behind the Scenes by Keith Roulston The media have to get it straight There is currently in Canada, an ongoing investigation int() the stale of the media in Canada. The investigation is to look at corporate concentration in the media, particularly after a number of daily newspapers were closed down a few months ago in what seemed like a mighty handy arrangement to lessen competition. The concern over this issue is particularly strong among people involved in the media both on ethical and economic grounds. As more and more newspapers come to be owned by fewer and fewer people such as the Thomson chain Jr the Southam chain, the potential for some newspaper owner dictating to a nation what it can read grows more dangerous. There are fewer perspect- ives on any given news event because there are fewer voices. There are also. of course, fewer jobs for journalists, photographers. editors. typesetter. etc. While there are real ethical questions that journalists have a right to be asking about this concentration of ownership of the news media, there are some ethical questions they should also be asking themselves and each other such as: am I doing my job the way it should be done? From the evidence I've had at least. there is reason to doubt they are. W e've all heard some politician some time get in hot water over something he said and then claim he was misquoted, that he didn't really say that at all. We tend to doubt it most often, politicans being what they are, or at least what we perceive them to be. However, after twice being interviewed by reporters from Canada's largest newspaper lately, 1 think I'll be more apt to listen the next time a politician makes that claim. To tell the truth, reading what I was supposed to have said after these two gentlemen got through bringing their scanty notes to life on the printed page, shook my faith in our forms of communications in Canada. It didn't matter particularly in my case that I was misquoted since it WAS a matter of no great importance to the future of the world that 1 was being intervkwed on, but as someone who came from a journalistic background, it was really disturbing. HIGHEST RESPECT Despite the fact that I got into journalism not so much from true love for the field as because it gave me a chance to earn a living at doing what 1 wanted most, writing, 1 have the highest respect for the profession. in a democracy few things are mo re important than the communication of information, information that must be collected and condensed and repeated by human beings most often of the kind we call journalists. Anyone who has seen a gossip grapevine at work knows what a fragile thing truth is. What really happened can quickly be distorted beyond recognition as it is passed along from person to person, even with the best of intentions. Human perception of the fact can also be a barrier in the road of communicating the truth. A favourite trick when I was studying journalism was to have someone burst into a a room in the middle of a class, assault the professor or do something equally startling, then leave quickly. Students afterward were asked to tell what they saw and seldom was what they repeated what they really saw. Good reporters must battle the inadequacies of their own human failings. But the key word is battle. Journalism instructors in my school pounded into students consciousness of the fact they had to recognize their failings and battle against them. Recognize your own bias in a story so you can battle that bias to get as truthful a story as possible. Take down quotes exactly. Get the names right and don't just guess, ask. Even a Smith might be spelled Smyth, we were reminded until we could hear it in our dreams at night. In one of those interviews with Canada's largest newspaper my name was misspelled throughout the entire article. RAISING STANDARDS Raising the professional standards of journalists has been a source of concern tor leaders in the field for some time. Any attempt to licence journalists as doctors or lawyers are licenced can lead to the day when freedom of speech and of the press is muzzled. Saying someone must have train" ing as a journalist also means controlling those who can report the news, endangering our own society. Yet having'' society that distrusts what it reads in the press or hears on television or radio because of the incompetence of the working journalists is equally distructive. Every time someone is interviewed and finds his name spelled wrong or is supposed to have said something that he would never in a hundred years have said, the credibility of our communications media is eroded a little more. In a democracy, the whole process of government by the people Is weakened If people cannot trust the very sources of information they must have to make deci- sions. Journalists cannot be policed by some outside body such as government so they must begin to police themselves. With every freedom in a democracy goes a responsibility and for the media that responsibility is to be as accurate as humanly possible. Too many journalists (from my experience on the big papers not the small weeklies) aren't even taking their fob seriously, Walkerburn families enjoy annual picnic The Walkerburn Club held their annual picnic at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ted Hunking.

While there. 1 hap- pen to overhear a group of student interns discussing religion. One of them said, "God is a crutch." My ears perked up. He is a crutch if our attitude toward him is one of using him. It is like the little boy who was climbing a- round the house roof and began to slip. As he saw himself heading for the edge. he began to cry out to God for help.

Some years ago, a Christian speak- er of international renown said that the average adult American has a Grade 111 conception of God. If that is true, then. as little children depend on their parents be- cause they have not vet grown up, so we find our- selves with an infantile de- pendence on God. tiod is not a crutch if we allow him to become our life. 1 hrough Jesus, God said. "I ant the life." (John 14:h). Apart from God, life is lived on crutches If we believe that we arc made by God and for God, and that only he can fill our life with meaning and wholeness, then, in him. we have real life. Jesus said, "1 am come that you might have life and have if more abun- dantly... (John 10:10). God is not a crutch if we acknowledge him to be God and surrender our life to him in trust and obedience. If we use him, then, we are makinpGod in our image and setting up ourself as God.

The next reunion is to be held the 3rd Sunday in July 1983 at the same place. Those attending were from Sault Ste. Marie. Hamilton. Ripley, Woodstock, Inger- soll, Mossely. Auburn, God- erich, Blyth. Wingham and Belgrave. Helen Martin and her sister-in-law, Mrs. Edwin Martin of Brussels returned Saturday night. July 18. from the St. Lawrence Saguenay. St. Pierre and Miquelon and Blyth United news Rev. Tom Smith is in the pulpit on July 19 and 26 at Blyth United Church as Mr. Wittich starts his holidays. Rev. Bob Scott is the mini- ster on call for the rest of July, and Rev. Ledrew of Brussels for Aug. 1.1'. Sunday's service was built around Psalm 23. including scriptures, hymns. children's story and sermon. Greeters were George Wasson and Bob Peck. Ush• ers were Fern McDowell, Charlie Smith and Ralph Caldwell. Julie Shohbrook minded little ones in the nursery. David Scott sang a very meaningful solo, to his own guitar accompani ment. Everyone will always re- member the children's story, when Mr. Smith (the she- pherd) took the little girls (pretending they were sheep) to green pastures. fresh water, through a dark valley. more green pastures, and back to the fold where he found a lamb missing. He hunted until he found it and then there was rejoicing, The Shepherd is always caring for his sheep. The sermon enlarged on this story pointing out that God cares for each one as if there are no others. If God cares this much, we need to care too. We see God's concern for the Tess fortunate working through people pro- viding pensions and needs of everyone. No one escapes the dark valleys of sickness. depres- sion, bereavement, etc., but God goes with us all the way. It's not a dead end. There's another green pasture at the other end. followed by good- ness and mercy. On July 12th, Rev. Wit- tich's sermon was "Testing of our faith." based on the story of Job. If we have Faith, God will test it to build it up so we'll have a full meaningful Faith to hold us up and carry us through to the end. Faith is a gift. and God enriches it. We all need the patience of Job to come through valley experiences. Christ's Faith was tested. Still he committed himself (His Spirit) to His Father. In the monthly "minute for mission," we learned how the churches have started a Dary Care Centre, in the slum section of Kingston. Jamaica so 2, 1 and 4 yr.olds aren't left alone on the street. Our Mission and Ser- vice Fund provides a grant to assist this prolect, Flowers were from the Cook -Dale wedding. and Adeline Campbell was the soloist. There will be no Sunday School during August.
