Warden Forsyth stated that he was fully aware of the heavy responsibilities placed up- on him. He congratulated all councillors on being elected, and made special mention of Grant Stirling, the first •deputy reeve of Goderich Township in 65 years. In his inaugural address, Mr. Forsyth quoted from a report made by clerk John Berry to 'the November session of coun- ty council, in which, concern- ing hospital grants and other services, Mr. Berry had asked council to "consider very care- fully the financial aspect of these services." He urged them to make every possible effort to looking towards economy measures, and conduct the af- fairs of the county within the budget. Mr. Forsyth said, "The tax- payer to-day has about reached the limit of his ability to pay." He introduced members of Tuckersmith council, and Frank Falconer addressed the assem- bly on behalf of the township. He noted that RCAF Station Clinton, within the borders of the township, had one of the largest payrolls of any estab- lishment in the county, and he noted that an ideal way to ad- vertise the county, was (through the personnel at the Station. "I have always heard," said Mr. Falconer, "that the county home was built in Tuckersmith because (it was a good place to live. If the rest of the people in the county want a better place to live, they can always come to the county home, but if we Tuckersmith people want a better place, we have to die." Members of the striking com- mittee, named following the election were Alvin Rau, Wil- liam Ball, William Henderson, Clifford Dunbar and James 131s- set Mayor Ernest Fisher brought greetings from the 'town of Goderich. Joseph Kerr was elected for a five-year term on the road committee; Andrew Ritchie foe a four year term, and Mel Crich for three years. Judge Fingland, the county clerk-treasurer John Berry, and Arthur Gibson Were nail- ed 'the audit board. D Fair Legacy, $1,200.Annually- For Scholarships There will be approximately $1,200 a year'available from the interest on the W. D. Fair Estate, to be used as scholar- ships at Clinton District Col- legiate Institute. Mr. Fair, who operated a book store in Clin- ton from 1895 to 1942, passed away seven years ago in 1953. Announcement of the provis- ions of the will was made Wed- nesday night, January 11, at a meeting of Clinton District Collegiate Institute l3oard. Con- ditions under which the scholar- ships will be awarded are to be decided 'by the principal of the collegiate. D. John Cochrane, along with the chairman of the board, Ervine Tebbutt. In 'the event of any dispute between them, the opinion of the principal shall prevail. The principal may conduct eaaminations for each scholar- ship in any way he deems fit, and his awarding of a scholar- ship shall be final and not open to question in any manner whatsoever, Payment will be made direct from the Executor of •the estate. The main stipulation of the will is that each scholarship will be of $100. That means there will be about 12 scholar- ships to be awarded each year. This is the first time in the history of CDCI that funds from an estate have been pro- vided for scholarships in per- petuity. The only other schol- arships paid especially for stud- ents at ODCI is the Sir Ernest Cooper Scholarship of $50 an- nually. Sir Ernest is living in England. Awarding of the first W. D. Fair scholarships will not be made until the Commencement Exercises in the fail of 1962. The will provides that early in August, the trustees of the est- ate (Toronto General Trust Corporation) shall make known to the board the amount of money available, in even multi- ples of $100. Announcement is then to be made by the prin- cipal and the chairman of the board of •the conditions under which the scholarships will be earned. Decisions on the first award will be made at the end of June of the following year, biased on the year's work. Mr. Fair's will also had pro- vided that his estate supply 'the needs of Mrs. Josephine Fox (his sister) until her death. The balance of funds are to be kept invested by Toronto General Trust, and the interest made available for the scholarships. Mrs. Fox died on Tuesday, December 13, 1960, in the Timmer Nursing Home, Sea- forth. She-was hi: her 98th year and had been a hospital patient for many years' following an in- jury in which her hip was brok- en.

Biggs Speaking To OFU Answering critics who cite the danger of collusion among hog packers by changes in the present beg marketing plan, Everett Biggs, assistant to the deputy minister of agriculture (marketing) last week said such a trend could be checked through anti-combines legisla- tion, Mr. Biggs 'told an estimated 150 persons attending a special meeting of 'the Huron local of the Ontario Farmers' Union that he was optimistic that an agreement on the conteover- sial question of hog sale meth- ods would be reached Monday at a meeting in Toronto, of the Ontario Hog Producers' exec- utive, the Ontario Farm Mar- keting Board, "The department," said Mr. Biggs, "will co-operate to the fullest extent with the Hog Pro- ducers' board to see that no such (collusion) practices ex- ist." "We felt," he said, "that an agreement could be reached with the hog producers' exec- utive whereby changes in the plan might result in a sounder operation. This has not to date proven possible and it was for this reason that the Ontario Farm Products Marketing Board issued regulations which first of all made provision for democratic elections." Mr. Biggs said "that the me- thod of sale has been construed by the leader's of the Hog Pro- ducers to be the whole market- ing plan. In myi opinion this is nothing but a red herring to confuse the issue. The de- partment desires a marketing plan even more so than some other people concerned." "The basic problem I believe has been the lack of acceptance by some people of the true re- sponsibility of the Ontario de- partment of agriculture and the Farm Products Marketing Board in this' legislation." He said: "These powers which are normally government powers, are only delegated to farm mar- keting boards. These powers are powers of compulsion on many people who may not agree with the principles of the mar- keting plan at all. Under such circumstances the hog plan or any of the marketing plans can only work if they appreciate that 'these powers are only dele- gated and deliberately so, so that supervision can be given." Robert Taylor, RR 3, Clinton, president of the Huron unit, conducted the meeting. Don Grieve, associate agricultural representative for Huron Coun- ty introduced Mr. Biggs. "Aside from the fact of whether the FPMB is right or wrong, they have the authority. If a producers board refuses to accept this authority, then other producer boards will feel they can do anything, so long as' they shout hard enough," said Mr. Biggs. The government representa- tive said he felt that those who are abusing the packers are kicking a dead horse, which might come alive again if there were no marketing plan. "Under the present system, where there is allocation, I be- lieve there is greater opportune ity and incentive for collusion, than in any other system, Of course I don't know that this thing is true. But if you were buying, you just might call your neighbour and ask what they are going to bid, When the new method is introduced, and if there is evidence of col- lusion, we will bring it before the Anti-Combines Act and eee that it is corrected." Mr. Biggs commented on the fact that The Market Place goes into thousands of homes, and thus was leading Prona- ganda. However, his depart- ment, without money, felt the only way was to bring this thing out into the open, and though it might be controver- sial, the problem might be solv- ed, He had consulted skilled public relations men to arrive at this decision. Vaughn Douglas, farm editor at CKNX made a plea to the farm groups to work with the farm press, including weekly newspapers, to advise them of the things they wanted print- ed. He felt that the farm press has not always been fully in- formed, because no one has gone out to inform them in the right way. Charles Coultes, secretary- treasurer of the Free Enter- prise Hog Producers noted that he had asked Mr. Biggs twice to come to meetings of his group, and also had asked Geo- rge McCague to come to speak. Mr. Biggs' told Mr. Coultes that he had felt he would not help things by speaking to the Free Enterprise Hog Producers, Though he was morally wrong as a public servant not to ac- cept his invitations, Mr. Biggs felt he would have added fuel to the controversy. 0 3 Car Accident Sends Two Men To RCAF Hospital A three-car pile-up at the main intersection on Sunday evening caused considerable damage to two of the vehicles and sent two 17-year-old air- men to hospital at RCAF Sta- tion Clinton. A 1951 English model car, driven north on Victoria Street by Gilbert D. Ferris, RCAF Station, was in collision with a 1958 auto driven by David J. Ostrom, 20, Varna. Mr. Ostrom was making a left hand turn off Albert Street, preparing to go east on Ontario Street. The Ostrom car was struck broad- side. A third car stopped on On- tario Street facing west, receiv- ed slight damage to the left front. This was a 1959 oar driven by John William Picker- ing, 24, Lakeside. Mr. Ferris and his passenger, C. F. Dobson, also of RCAF Station Clinton were treated at Dr. F. G. Thompson's office and then transferred to the Station hospital. Chief H. R.

Meetings in 1961 will continue on the customary sec- ond Wednesday each month. The chairman and treasurer were authorized to borrow up to $125,000 to operate until moneys are available from municipal sources. Advice was received from the uron Soil and Crop Improve- ment Association that they had accepted the invitation of the board to hold the 196/ Seed Fair in the collegiate. Details of a bequest from the W. D. Fair estate for use as scholarships were announced. This appears in .another story in this issue. The report for December giv- en by Principal John Cochrane showed a total enrolment of 558, and an average of 92.52 percent attendance. Some sick- ness with measles, chickenpox and flu had lowered this figure. Mr. Cochrane also presented a forecast of enrolment in the school for the next five years, taking into consideration the dropout rate of 15 percent which had been discovered in 1960. Projected figures are: for 1961, 622; 1962, 680; 1963, 688; 1964, 706 and for 1965, 711. Capacity of the school building is 710. The board agreed to permit the installation of an electric time clock and scoreboard which the Students' Council had purchased at a cost of $600, on the south wall of the gym- natorium, The students have found that wiring costs for this electric scoreboard will be $400, which is $200 more than they estimated. However, the board refused to assume any part of the cost of this. R. D. Philp praised R. G. Hunter for his address given to the people in Blyth, which had brought about greater un- derstanding of a number of pro- blems. He said there had been no complaints received on the type of report card used at Christmas time. Mr. McClinchey inquired: "One thing I can't understand, Mr. Cochrane, is why so lousy much homework?" Mr. Coch- rane advised that the home- work should take from two to two and a half hours for a Grade 12 student. He noted that with a student having, eight teachers in a day, if each one sent home 20 minutes worth of homework, that would make two and a half hours. Mr. Cochrane noted' that some students are perfectionists, and will not be happy unless every page in every notebook is a neat Work of art. The curtains for the stage in the gymnatorium cost $1,- 700. The old ones had been sold Ito the Clinton Public School for $200. George Falconer asked that a letter go to Mr. Steckle, as- suring him of the appreciation felt by the board for his faith- fulness and consciencious atten- tion to his duties, "Mr. Stecide missed only one meeting In the seven, years he was a member of the board," said Mr. Pal- coney.
