The issue of the old bank building is far
from-dead-and--a-delegation-from -the-Blyth
Centre for the Arts approached the village
council requesting advice on how the building
could be saved from demolition!
When council met Monday night, Lynda
Lentz and Sheila Richards presented a
lengthy commentary on what impact the
tearing down of the building would make on
the community and said that their . first
concern was the saving of the building.
Councillor A bert Wasson emphasized that
the village council is not the one ordering the
demolition of the bank building. The original
agreement with the Canadian" Imperial: Bank
of Commerce isthat the bank is responsible
for the demolition of the building, not the
village.
At the January meeting councillors Bill
Manning and Helen Gowing went on record
as not in favour of the demolition but agreed.

original agreement ``until .; further, if :. any,

As Mrs: Lentz understands it, "council is
concerned with parking in the village; wishes
to be free of any financial burden that the
building could impose,pd which could create
an increasein taxes; and that the`village`has •
already entered into an agreement with the
bank.
"Would you please consider one of the

Energy Probe and the
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food have joined the up til

to Ontario Hydro's proposed
transmission line.
At . Stratford hearings,
Energy Probe has .voiced
opposition to Ontario Hydro's
proposed transmission : line

Power Development (BNPD).
to London, then to Middle -
port. It is also opposed to
completion of Bruce B gener-
atingstation.
Energy Probe's. lawyer,
Norman Rubin suggested
monies saved from not com-
pleting these projects could
be used to promote energy
efficiency and finding renew -
able energy sources as alter-
natives,
OMAF's lawyer, Thomas
Lederer, said the ministry has
prepared a study to be
presented to the Consoli
dated ` Hearings Board. The
study indicates the ministry's
preference for a transmission
line from BNPD to Essa.
Foodland-Hydro commit-
tee chairman Tony McQuail
of RR1 Lucknow said he is
"pleased" the Ministry of
Agriculture is attending the
hearings. He also notified the
board, the committee will be
taking on party status (that is
having a representative pre-
sent each , day of the .hear-
ings.),This decision came as a
result of the Ontario Coalition
Preserve Foodland being
turned down in its bid for
funding and a six-month
delay of the hearings.
"It may be repetitious
because of the lack of continu-
ity," Mr. McQuail told the
Consolidated Hearings
Board, "but, I trust the board
will bear with us. The board
Will also recognize that we are
not lawyers.
A decision on Energy
Probe's . proposal, that the
board study whether Bruce B
should . be completed, has
been reserved.
This proposal was received
favorably by farm organiza-
tions.'. Elbert Van Donkers-
goed, speaking for the Chris-
tian Farmers' Federation,
said the farm community
feels there never has been an
environmental assessment
study 1 done on BNPD. He
added the completion of
Bruce B has always been
assumed.
Mr. McQuail said the pro-
posal points to an issue
expressed ' by the Listowel
working group, the need to
examine other alternatives to
energy and energy conserva-
tion.
At present, Ontario Hydro
is submitting its evidence.
before the board. It is expect
ed this will take about two
weeks, with other parties
submitting their evidence

Mrs. Lentz remarked that it would < be
possible to use the building with a minimum
of repair.
Councillor Bill Howson noted that Blyth is
in an envious situation; with the theatre and
local business community ''and that he
personally wasconcerned that Blyth keep a
strongcore area and maintain it.
"If we changed here, (in this decision to
maintain parking space) what is to stop us
from selling the rest ofthe parking area for
business?" said Mr. Howson.
When asked directly by Sheila Richards if
council would consider selling the building,
Mr. Wasson said the offer was signed and
delivered.
The matter of public opinion was discuss-
ed, While council is in favour of hearing some
input from both , the merchants and the
general public any change in the agreement
between the village and the bank would have
to be agreed to by both parties.
Councillor Howson pointed out that the
new bank building would bring in higher
'revenue for the village and the biggest factor
in the whole agreement was the preservation
of parking which council has maintained.
When asked by Mrs. Lentz if council would
reconsider opening the discussion both
councillors Helen Gowing and Bill Manning,-..
said they were not in favour of tearing down
the building but while not openly inviting
opinions they were inagreement to let the

LEGION TOURNAMENT -- Eight teams from as far away as Walkerton
and Elora competed in the Legion tournament Saturday. The Pee Wee
teams were well matched with close scores. The final game between
Elmira and Mount Forest was a tight one with eight 5 minute periods'of
overtime. The final score 8-7 went to Elmira after a sudden death Score in
the eighth overtime. The Blyth Pee Wees were snowed out earlier in
January when they failed to play in games scheduled in Vanastra due to
stormy weather. The Legion sponsores the tournament to the district
level which includes 4 zones.

"If it is safe enough to put here, it must be
safe. enough to put anywhere else, if not,
don't give it to us," said Mr. McQuail.
This was greeted by hearty applause from
the audience, Dr. Chant agreed'in principle,
but reiterated an earlier statement saying the
soil : condition of prime agricultural land
meets criteria for a waste site.
Properties of clay soil are specifically what
is required:'
Dr. Chant said several times it is the
responsibility of everyone to control chemical
waste, since most buy products manufac-
tured by companies producing it. One
Ashfield resident took exception to this,
stating everyone eats,but the farmer is not
paid for disposing waste produced on " the
farm. Dr. Chant suggested farmers include
those costs in the price of their goods.
When asked about residerAs living near the
eventual location being relocated, Dr. Chant
said "it would blow my mind" if people had
to be relocated. He said there would only be

The studies presently being conducted are•
investigating factors such as transportation,
soil, socio-economic impacts, and the world's

ment. In placinga site, Dr'. Chant said.
Ministry of Environment regulations will be
followed:
For the future, Dr. Chant estimated 65 per.
cent of the chemical waste produced could be
exchanged by companies. He said only .8 per
cent is presently being exchanged ay cited a •
new adage, "one company's waste is\another
company's resource."
Thanking Dr, Chant, Girvirl Reed, chair-
man of an Ashfield Township committee
recently organized as a reaction to the
possibility of a waste site, . commented
Ashfield Township is "on the list with
everybody else''.
"We're number 50, 1 hope," he said.
Following the meeting, Ashfield Reeve
Warren Zinn said the township has stated it is
opposed to a waste site and has received the
support of Huron County Council. He noted
the township's secondary plan has "fairly
stiff regulations and there is no reason why
we should have this (waste site)".

just what youneed, to see the

After lisitening to a few cuts
from their album you may
catch yourself laughing at
just mediocre conversation
around the house that before
you only had half an ear for.
It is refreshing to know
that Canadians are : know 'for

What started dial Bank of Commerce has become a h problem
and the:

Canadian imperial p m in the eyes
of many.
Initially the bank offered their present lot for parking when the old
bank building is torn down and a new one built, on a piece. of. land gained__
in a trade with the .municipality for the village parking area.
But the idea of having parking on another corner in the village along
withthe loss of the old bank 'building was toomuch for some to accepct.
and in an effort to save the building The Blyth` Centre for the Arts has
requested input from . council on how this could be done.
But it is not up to council alone to decide.
Involved with the trade is the other partner, the Canadian Imperial
Bank of Commerce, which,has remained either ignorant of the rumblings
or has chosen to remain silent until discussion is initiated by council. As
to parking, some merchants have indicated that space for parking could
be located behind their businesses on the main street. With the cars
—behind the buildings the -face -of -the village-is-preserved-and-a-iocationfor---

of preserving old buildings and if you have noticed some of the finest

It would have been too much to have
expected the leaders of our country to have
come up with an easy, quick solution to our
economic problems when they met in Ottawa
last week but is it too much to ask that at least
they show..some::leadership?. _ .-
There are many places in this world that
are worse, off than Canada. Many of those
•
places that are the worst off are peopled by
citizens who accept every disaster that befalls
them as just one of the burdens they must
bear. Canadians, on the other hand, despite
their relative good - fortune, must find
somebody' to blame for everything that, goes
wrong.'1Ve see ourselves on the edge of a
perfect world,a Utopia, and when we can't
step into Utopia we .'must find a villain
someplace. Sombody must be to blame for all
• the bad things in the world. In the. old simple
days people blamed the devil: The Americans
made it more modern by blaming : the
Communists. Canadians, depending on their
Ideology,; blame It either on.big ,business or
the government, with most of.the blame
going to the latter.
AIITACK
So many-Canadians.were ready to side with
the provincial premiers last week that they.
attacked.the federal government's'`economic
policy. All of them, socialist, 'middle -of -the-
• road conservative, far right social, creditist,
all' of them 'agreed the . government must
lower interest rates. In doing so, they spoke
for most Canadians who see what high
interest ratesare doing- to- them ` and to
businessmen, : farmers and homeowners
across the country.
But ..as,at „least __one _commentator from _
Ottawa said, the; unanimity' of the premiers
seemed' a little;phoney.. They could afford to
take the politically popular stand 'because
they weren't the nes who had to implement
--the plain: If: their advice -was -taken;. if the
Canadian, dollar plummeted andWall the
horrible things Gerald Bouey has predicted
took place, then the premiers would still be
safely on the sideline, pointing the finger of
guilt at the feds for getting us in this, mess.
It may be that Canadians will just have to
accept the fact that sometimes the economy
gets out of whack and nobody is to blame for
not being able to get it working again quickly.
After all, our bodies are magnificent,
complicated things but sometimes they get
sick. "Sometimes even the best doctor can't
find an immediate cure to ' .the sickness.
Sometimes the disease must take its course,
putting a great deal of strain and pain on the
body but the patient comes out of the trial like
new. Perhaps Allan MacEachen will be seen
as history as a great economic physician who
had the courage to stick by his, prescription
when' others, including, the provincial lead-
ers, told him' he, should change it
SHOW. CONCERN
But, if sometimes the doctor has to sit by
and watch the, illness work its way out, at least:
we would expect him to show some concern
for the patient: At least we wouldn't expect
-him-to- have a parry with -the-nurses—and--
orderlies while the patient suffered on. One
gets the feeling that our "leaders" are too
busy playing their own games tobe bothered
giving too much concern for the ailing.
Canadian economy and the Canadians who
are being hurt . because of the a current
problems.
Take the matter of the postal rate increase.
;Many would 'argue ,that the government is
helping inflation by that massive increase.
Looking at it from .the side of those who claim:::
that government deficit is to. blame for'
inflation, however, one can justify the
increase since it will make the post office pay
for itself, lessening` the burden . on the tax

l'he issue of the oldbank building drags on.
Some people have ignored it because the
idea of demolition- seemed unbelieVeable.
Others feel the whole thing has been decided.
Neithpr of these statements is true.
I would therefofe urge the various groups
in town --the Board of Trade, The_Women"_s
Institute, The Senlor Citizens, The Horticul-
tural, Society, etc. --to make their views
known. Council is especially interested in the
views of private citizens.
So here's one
I don't think demolishing -the old bank will
help business one bit. We already have more
tneterless parking space than any place
around and if parking created customers the
Council argues that the new parking space
will be closer to the dovvntown core thus
creating more business for the adjacent
stores. As a result more people would buy
shoes or meat or drugs or maybe go to the
funeral home more often.
Less optimistic souls have noted that the
new hold will be an ideal `docking place fot
future patrons of the Legion not to mention
the large white building on the corner whose
already very ample parking is, alas, behind
the building.
If the theatre needs the old bank --for
storage, for rehearsal space; for carpentees,
""-fUrtlte.Young People's Theaire—why should-
n't it get a chance?
I can't speak for the board, but I know that
last year we had to rent fourteen buildings in
this area. As one who spent a fair amount of
time looking for those buildings, furnkshing
them, and lugging all those fridges and
stoves back into temporary storage, I confess
the idea of permanent space is unusually
sweet.
But, quite aside from the theatre, if anyone
want that building, needs it, and is prepared
to pay for it, keep it up, and continue to pay
taxes into the community, why should they be
In the end, which will contribute more to
the well-being of the village: a new tenant or a
vacant space?
Please make your views known.

The decision on a crossing
guard for the corner of Queen
and King streets here in Blyth
has:.ueen shelved by village
council. The decision came at
the last meeting when they
reviewed the permit thathas
to be signed each year and
sent to the Ministry of Trans-
portation and Communica=
_- tions:
Councillors on the whole
agreed that the problem'of
teaching children how to
cross the highway and take
precautions should be` left up
to parents.
There has never been an
accident involving: a child on
that corner .in -the past;and,
as the OPP' had cautioned
council previously, the idea of
a crossing guard is a good one
if you ` can" improve on your
record.
Council made it a motion
that the crossing guard is not
a municipal problem and that
the responsibility `lies with
the parents.
It was noted that when the
school plans'' outings to the
arena the.children are all
supervised by :; teachers.
Council agreed to write to the
school advising them of 'its
decision.
Council also noted that
. there were more hazardous
a r awn to village where a
crossing guard could, be de-
manded.
Bob Susz and Brenda Mc-
Donald from the Blyth Minor
Softball committee met with
council -to discuss a bill. for
$2,246.40 received by council
for work done on the new ball
diamond.
The group (Minor Softball)
had hoped to be self;suffi-
cient but upon going, over
their accounts with;council
the bulk of their money went
to new equipment for ' the
teams ($1,300). The food
booth that the group man-
aged for,the summer' made
over`` $'1;000. Reenue was
also raised from gate receipts
$393., and registrations
$1,300.
Last year the ` group de-
clared their intent to be self
sufficient inorder to relieve
pressure from the Lions and
Legion but find,themselves
looking to these groups for
financing this year.
Council gave a $600 'dona-
tion to the group to put
towards the bill and the group
already has a little over $500.
Councillor Albert Wasson
said something could be
worked out with Radford
Construction which did the
work, to hold the bill until
payment can be arranged.
The work initially included
a bit of grading but became a
little' more involved when
stone chips had to be used for
better drainage.
More information was re-
viewed by council concerning
the pillars in Memorial Hall.
Blyth Fire. Chief Irvine
Bowes has been in contact.
with the fire marshall's office
and was advised that the.
posts are madeof. cast iron
and have a lower tolerance to
--
fire. -therefore -they-must-be
protected with a' fire rated
material.' It was suggested
that ` the pillars could: be
replaced with steel posts and
be. filled; with' concrete and
reinforcing 'rods.
A letter from the Cowan
Insurance Company advised,
council that any change that
meets with` the building `,code
and the fire marshall would
be acceptable to their comp-
any.
ompany., Councillor Wasson is the.
representative on the' Hall
board and will take` the
information to the next meet-
ing for discussion.
Council received a set of
guidelines from the Ministry
of the Environment concern-
ing the development and
operation of a waste disposal
site. A site study is required
and the guidelines are for the
consultants and municipali-
ties in order `that all the
information the ministry re-
quires is forwarded.
The guidelines mention
burning waste. It is allowable
for sites serving 3,000 or less
but it is. a' practise that'is
discouraged by the ministry.
Council asked for a meeting
with Hullett township who
share the site and a repre
sentative from the ministry
to discuss the guidelines and
the site.
The second ' half of the
grant to the Wingham Public
Hospital is due.. Council
approved the second pay-
ment of $1,000.
