Submit Proposed Plans for
New District
The regular March meeting
of the ” Exeter District High
School Board was held in the
High School on Monday evening
March 1, Absent A. W. Morgan
L. C. Brisson, .
The Chairman welcomed to
the Board two new members,
Mr. Arthur Finkbeiner, appoint
ed by Huron County Council,
and Mr. C. S. MacNaughton ap
pointed by the Exeter Council
to replace Mr. J. H. Jones.
The regular business was set
aside in favor ,of Mr. Steele
who brought the preliminary
plans for the new building. He
presented a view

made for Home Economics, Ag

jects, Art and Library. Near
the entrance, accommodation is
provided for the Principal’s of
fice, the Vocational Guidance
Department and Medical Ser
vice. A cafeteria is capable of
seating 115 students.
Mr. Steele showed that es
timates of cost were calculated
roughly at , this stage on two
bases—per square foot and per
cubic foot. A figure of $475.'000
came within the Department’s
figures of $12 per square foot
and 80 cents per cubic foot.
The present fashion favours the
calling of contracts on a cost
plus basis so that any decrease
in prices result in an advantage
to the Board and any increases
are held in a minimum.

seconded by E. Chambers .that

Record Crowd
A record crowd jammed the
Exeter Arena last Monday night
to see the third and deciding
game between the Lucan Irish
and Ilderton in the W.O.A.A.
playdowns. Some 1,800 fans
packed the seating capacity and
standing room while some even
crawled up the rafters. A good
number of those hot able to
gain admission peeped in thru
the vent window and the back
door. It was estimated that some
800 fans had to be turned away,

Jazz Collector
Guest of CFPL
On Saturday, March 6th, Mr.
Peter A. Fraser, son of Mr. and
Mrs. Arthur Fraser of town, was
a guest of CFPL’s sixty minute
record session called “Let’s Talk
Jazz”. This program is
from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m.
Saturday and
great deal of favourable com
ment from Western Ontario fans.
Mr. Fraser with his friend and
fellow member of the University
of Western Ontario Jazz Club,
Mr. Ronald Alexander, were in
vited to express their opinions
of music and musicians.
The records which composed
the show were all from Mr.
Fraser’s extensive collection.
The majority of the discs were
so-called “imports” (small A-
merican and British record com
panies) and were capably intro
duced and commented upon by
him.
The questions “What is your
favourite instrument” and “Who
is your favourite, on this instru
ment?” brought a wide variety
of answers from both guests.
Mr. Fraser refused to name
any particular instrument but
stated that both Lester , Young
and Coleman Hawkins on tenor
sax and the Basie rhythm
tion (as a unit) impressed
favourably.
Mr. Alexander named
piano and the tenor sax, in
order, as his favourite instru
ments. He agreed with Mr. Fra
ser's selection of tenormfen but
held no particular pianist above
the many excellent jazz pianists.
Further interrogated, he ex
pressed the opinion that there
are several necessary qualities
that make a good jazz musi
cian,—familiarity with one’s in
strument, a thorough knowledge
of music, relaxed effortless play
ing, ability to improvise, and a
■good tone being imperative.
Both guests were invited to
return soon.
Mr. Fraser is one of a half
dozen jazz collectors in Exeter,
his collection being one of the
largest. This is not his first ap
pearance at a CFPL airer, being
a guest on two previous occa
sions at interviews with popular
band leaders visiting the London
Arena.
Dr. J. G. Dunlop
Buys Elliot Property
Another link with pioneer
days has passed with the dis-
posal of the property and house
hold effects, of the Elliot family.
The large brick home at the
south end of town was sold by
auction last Friday afternoon
and was purchased by Dr. J, G,
Dunlop for $5,500. Good prices
were realized for the household
effects. Ninety years ago the
late B. V. Elliot arrived in Exe
ter from England and for many
years conducted a law practice
here. He built the home which
was occupied by members of the
family until the death of the
late Frederick Elliot the lattei*
part of January. During the
illness of Mr. Elliot, Mr. and
Mrs. S. L. Moore, of Toronto,
have looked after the home.
Following the sale Mr. and Mrs.
Moore returned to Toronto.
They made many friends while

Thomas Pryde, the newly-el
ected member of the Ontario
Legislature from Huron county,
received a great welcome as he
took his seat in the house Wed
nesday of last week. He was es
corted into the Legislative
Chamber by Premier George
Drew and William Murdoch,
party whip, and M.L.A. for Es
sex South.
A bouquet of heather and
considerable desk thumping
greeted him as he took his seat.
The introduction followed the
reading of the Speech from the
Throne.
Premier Drew said Huron had
an excellent member in Tom
Pryde,, one whom they could be
proud of. He was well qualified
in every way to represent the
riding, the Premier added.
Joining in the felicitations to
the new member, Farquhar Oliv
er, Liberal Leader, jocularly re
marked that he disclaimed any
responsibility for his coming to
the House.
“Anything I may have contri
buted was done inadvertently,”
continued Mr. Oliver, amid
laugher from the legislators and
spectators.
Others welcoming Mr. Pryde
were W. J. Grummett, C.C.F.
leader and A. A. -McLeod, Lab
or-Progressive leader. The latter
jovially commented “I hope the
virtues of his race will overcome
the vices of his politics.”
Commenting on the’ reception
he had received Mr. Pryde later
remarked, “At this time I must
express my deep appreciation of
the kindly remarks made by the
Prime Minister, the honourable
Leader of the Opposition and
honourable Leaders of the other
groups in this House. It was
quite noticeable that the re
marks were not so much person
al. They were directed more at
the circumstance that I was
born in Scotland and that, being
so, much will be expected of me.
I also want to say, the bou
quet of heather which adorned
my desk was a gracious tribute
to my native land and I want to
thank the donor for all the kind
• things said and for the manner
in which the remarks were re
ceived by the honourable mem
bers. I want to say a sincere
thank you.
