Scott, Mit- chell, in the near future. Tent- ative approval of the construc- tion was given; by council of the Town of Clinton on Monday night, depending only upon the building meeting building regu- lations. Mr. Scott, who was introduc- ed to council by John A, An- stett, local businessman, opened Composite School Application OK'd (continued from page 1) no other instance exists of sev- eral boards combining efforts under this plan. However, they have assurance from the de- partment that such a combina- tion is feasible, and they have been encouraged to think that it would be approved. Many questions arose, which well be taken to Dr. S. B, Ran- dall, BA, superintendent of secondary education for On- tario, for answers by a commit- tee. Included in this commit- tee will be two members from each Huron board, plus' the principal. .Another meeting will be held in the near future, in the Clin- ton collegiate, to further plans for this project. Mrs. T, Govenlock, RR 3, Seaforth, another member of the Farm Union educational committee, drew attention to the fact that both the Women's Institute and the Federation of Agriculture had' been, inter- ested in this idea, before ;the Farmers Union took it up. Warren Zurbrigg, president of the Huron Federation of Agriculture, spoke in agree- ment with 'the principle of the school, and noted that the Fed- eration would support it, with view to stressing the subject of agriculture. Eric Johnstone, Goderich, the Deputy Commander of Zone Cl, Royal Canadian Legion, congratulated the gath- ering. "You stole our thunder," he said. The Legion had been working on this, for two years, and since the group is large, had so far gotten lit only be- fore Command at Hamilton. Seaforbh board spokesman Fred Sills, reported that they were prepared' to take the in- itiative and go ahead to build the school. nt appears probable Ghat one board wilt have to take the initiative and build, afterwards charging participat- ing schools on a per pupil (or otherwise determined) basis. Clinton board chairman Tebbutt indicated' the will- ingness of Clinton's board to co-operate if it was decided that the school should be locat- ed here. Kenneth B. McRae, a member of the Clinton board, noted that in the end it would be the Department that deeid- ed upon location, and the local board was anxious that at pre- sent no particular location was stressed, until the matter could be considered fully. It was 'a lengthy meeting, with many matters threshed out. However, many details still need to be considered, and answers found, before the school can actually be planned uPen- Reeve Torn !Alper, Hullett Township, who attended with Reeve Harvey Colemate Stan- ley Township, asked about cost. "If educational taxes go higher there'll be a lot of, grumbling, The boards should come back to the councils for approval before they go ahead." The meeting agreed that this would be 'necessary before building could begin. However, they needed .to Make an appli- cation before it was too late to take advantage of the grant system offered. If the plan was found to be toe expensive to maintain, 'they could With- draw later. covrtus OLVB TO COWL AT MAY 17 MEETING The Couples Club of Ontario Street 'United Church will en- joy (bowling at 8.80 p.ni, dti may rt. All couples in the church who like to bowl are eveleoree the bowling alley in Exeter, and recently one in Mitchell. ,He plans a fully automatic operation here, hiring local help, and a mechanic to keep the mechanical pint-setters in shape. Also included will be automatic food dispensers. Location of the alley, which will probably cost up to $100, 000, is not known as' yet, though on Monday night Mr. Scott stated that he had a verbal 'agreement with owner of land in town suitable to him. Mr. Scott pressed for de- cision from council at the Monday meeting, so that there would be no 'opportunity for his deal to be spoiled before he could get underway. Councillor W. C. Newcombe stated he was certainly in fav- our of ,an up-to-date bowling alley. "This will bring people to town, and this is- what we want." Mr. Anstett put in another plea in behalf of Mr. Scott. "This man is ready to buy and build. Any concrete assistance you can give that will help him will be appreciated. This means extra revenue and extra em- ployment." Mr. Scott told of family bowling, and the increase in the trend 'toward this, "I run a clean place and a strict pl- ace," he said. Councillor Herbert Bridle noted that he thought 'the maj- ority of council was in favour, but that the by-law as it stood was sufficient to bar action by council. Clerk J. Livermore went 'to fetch the by-law. Councillor W. C. Newcombe stood up in protest to all the arguments. "I've often wond- ered why someone wasn't build- ing a bowling alley here before now. Let us play ball with this man, and give him the permission to build. Then we can change the old by-law and prepare it for next council meeting, Clerk Liveemore came back with the by-law, and said, "Oh this will all have to be chang- ed. Yon might as well rescind the whole thing and start over. It says here that nobody under 18 is allowed to go into a bowling alley." There was general laughter, and it was noted that the by- law had been passed in 1939, with no ,amendments since. , COMING EVENTS Wednesday Noon — Last Chance to place aclvertieemente . hi this coltunn, Phone before 12.30 p.rn. 111K-tfb Tues., May 16 — Huron Fish and Game Bingo.
