Clinton News-Record, 1972-02-03, Page 7Mechanisms, both hydraulic and pneumatic, fn industry as well as in a wide variety of transportation and construction equipment, has resulted in a dramatic increase in the need for skilled technicians. The course provides challenge in several basic engineering subjects devoted to the specific fields of hydraulics and pneumatics. Practical laboratory experience is supplemented by classroom instruction to enable the student to gain valuable working knowledge in a wide range of production equipment and consumer product oriented applications. These applications involve power sources, static and dynamic systems, servo- mechanisms and control circuits. Graduates of this course can anticipate many challenging employment opportunities in the research and development quality . Control, or production departments of a wide range of manufacturing industries, They will also be qudlified to fill positions in the technical sales and service fields. MATERIALS MANAGEMENT Mr. Gerald Nipshagen, the Manager of Materials at Allis- Chalmers, Rumely, Limited, of Guelph, has been serving as Chairman of the Advisory ,Committee for this new Programme. Materials Management is not a new concept but is certainly an area of endeavour which has reached a degree of importance in business today that necessitates the hiring of highly knowledgeable and well trained people in this field. Materials Management is a three year co-educational Programme. It is unique in that the total materials management concepts are brought together under one Programme and to our knowledge no similar Programme is presently being offered in the Province of Ontario or anywhere in Canada. This realistic Programme has be 'n strongly endorsed by industrial surveys, and is fully supported by the Canadian Association of Production and Inventory Control. The International Materials Management Society, Central Ontario Chapter; and the Purchasing Management Association of Canada. It is designed to provide the student with a depth of knowledge in a number of business, commercial, and industrial 'technology subjects. Graduates will find themselves qualified to seek employment with both large and small manufacturers in many fields. They will either assume responsibility for the entire materials management function, in the case of the small industry, or fill positions in such departments as purchasing, production planning, traffic, shipping, or marketing, in the case of the larger industry. In the latter case, the graduate could, because of his broad knowledge of ale of the related functions, aspire to head such a department and eventually assume reeponsibility for the entire materials management function. WELDING TECHNICIAN This new Programme was developed during 19'71 through the concentrated effort of an Advisory Committee whose Chairman was Mr. Heinz L. Sassmann, - Manufacturing Engineering Analyst at Canadian Westinghouse Company, Limited, Hamilton, Ontario. As in many other fields of modern technology, design and application criteria of increasing complexity are continually being applied in the field of welding. Engineers, metallurgists, designers and project managers are becoming increasingly aware of the contribution which can be made by the technician with his combination of theoretical knowledge and practical experience, in many phases of their work. Graduates will possess a depth of technical knowledge and practical experience, coupled with a sound base of business and communication skills, which will enable them to successfully seek positions in many fields. Product design, research and development, estimating, inspection, and shop or field supervision are examples. Graduates may also find employment with engineering consulting firms, large construction contractors, or manufacturers of welding supplies. probationary licences Probationary licences for all novice drivers was a key proposal that emerged from a three-day series of Road Safety Workshops held in London, Ontario, last week, and attended by more than 700 delegates. The proposal was supported particularly by young people attending the workshops, organized by Ontario's Department of Transportation and Communications. Richard Samborski, of Bathurst Heights Secondary School, Toronto summed up the feeling of young people when he told delegates that beginner drivers should be suspended after accumulating seven demerit points, rather than the current 15—"whether they are 16 years old or 60." Charles MacNaughton, Minister of Transportation and Communications, said he is considering the feasibility of a "probationary" licence for all drivers for the first 12 months after they have passed the driving test. The novice would receive a permanent licence only if his record showed he had earned the right. Delegates at one of the six workshops voted overwhelmingly in favour of making the wearing of seat belts mandatory, but Mr. MacNaughton said that, while, this "is being vigorously studied and pursued" there ate serious problems to be considered, particularly the question of enforcement. Gordon Mackie, safety engineer for Ford Motot Co. of Canada Ltd., said "there have been no fatalities in North America up to Speeds of 60 mph where people have been properly belted in" with shoulder and lap harnesses. Infant car seats also attracted considerable discussion. Delegates were told that Malty,. child car seats now on the market do not provide the protection children need. "In feet," said Walter Reynolds, Ontario's Director of Safety, "some of the restraints e are an absolute menace," Ile said this whole issue was critical because every day children are treated at hospitals after car injuries which aren't caused by collisions but by panic stops. Mrs. Joy lefeoe, of the Consumers Association of Canada, criticized the automobile manufacturers for not advertising their infant carrier seats. The industry's spokesmen agreed they do deserve greater advertising emphasis. Mr. MacNaughton said his Department has not yet found an acceptable child restraint but work is underway with the Canadian Standards Association to develop an acceptable design standard that can be legislated. One of the luncheon speakers, former Arizona Governor Howard Pyle, President of the • U,S. National Safety Council, severely criticized the allocation of funds to traffic collisions by the U.S. government. He said the average age of a cancer victim was. 63,4, compared with 36.9 for a traffic victim. President Nixon has allocated $1.6 billion for cancer over the next three years. On a comparative analysis, this means $1,3 billion should be allocated to traffic accidents, or $435 million a year compared with the actual budget of only $76,7 million for fiscal 1973. "This is only one-sixth of what we should be getting to deal with one of the most tragic problems facing our society," Governor Pyle said. Another guest speaker, Director-General W. G. Alexander, of Britain's Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents, said that the first four years of enforcement of the breathalyzer legislation showed deaths and injuries from auto accident were "slightly, but significantly, down" despite an increase ie the number of drivers and cars and miles travelled. He said there is growing support in Britain to lower the permissible amount of alcohol frotn .08 percent—the same level as in Canada—to .05 percent. Windsor Police Chief Gordon Preston criticized "the bleeding hearts" who challenge the breathalyzer laws on civil rights grounds. He said the public and press become quickly alarmed over increases in street crimes, but do not appear concerned over deaths and injuries from traffic He demanded stricter enforcement of laws, Goderich lawyer James Donnelly, Q.C., also argued for stiffer legislation for traffic offences, lie said "people are no FREE PICKUP SERVICES UNTIL FEB. 12 , Yes, as an added benefit to you, Memer's are providing free pickup of your animals from now until February 12. It's their way of asking you. to give them a chance to prove they can give you "that little extra". At Merner's Meats ... YOU GET MO E By having a large cooler for sides of beef an d pork, Merner's never have to rush your meat through. It can be aged just the way you want it, under Ron Merner's expert care. 2. THREE CUTTING MET HODS Some people never stop to consider the fact that not everyone wants his meat cut up the same way. That's why Merner's have three cutting services. There's the regular method, a semi-deluxe and a deluxe. The latter involves the removal of all bones from roasts and rolling roasts. 3. WRAPPING VVITH VITA FILM This is a clear see-through film that enables the b usy housewife to see at a glance what she is picking out of her free zer. It's thin and reduces the storage space required for your meat and at the same time is stronger than most paper used in the pro essing business and prevents freezer burn. While they're wrapping meat, the good people at Merner's use cello-paper to divide your st eaks and chops so you can use..any number you wish without tha ing the entire package. Vita Film is air-tight of course and after wrapping, all cuts are identified by their standard name and also identified by quality so you know you're picking out the best roa st from your freezer if you want something special for company. 4. BLAST FRE E ZER Here's one of the most important aspects of havin g excellent meat. It should be frozen as quickly as possible and th t's exactly what happens in Merner's blast freezer. None of th goodness escapes. 5. SMOKE HOUSE Merner's have just added a smoke house to their faciliti as. Here they'll custom smoke your hams, bacons, pork loins, ausage, summer sausage, etc. if that's the way you enjoy it best. It's not rushed, but given plenty of time to soak up the tasty ar ma of hardwood smoked meats. 6. MAKING BEEF PATTIES The outdoor barbecue, whether it be on a warm sunny day in the summer or around the campfire on a snowmobile outin , is always easily mastered if the chef has prepared patties, Mer er's have a machine that automatically turns out patties that mak e it easy for you to prepare hamburgs at any time. Having one of the most modern abattoirs in Huron, enables Merner's Meat Market to provide "that little extra" i n quality and service. Many have discovered that difference and Merner's invite you to do the same.

The Programme is off to e good start, and a great deal of redit for this must be given to everal members of the College ho have greatly extended themselves in the pursuit of approvals, purchases and eumerous meetings into the long 'ours of the night, in order to indlize detailed curriculum, timetabling and co-ordination. A very essential part of the earlier work that was done by the Advisory Committee included extensive surveys of relevant business and industry, in order to etermine job opportunities for radnates of the Programme. Amongst the areas of employment would be included such larger food processing plants as Canada Packers, and large pharmaceutical houses such as Eli Lilly, Dow Chemical; several Sovernment Agencies including Public Health, Pure Food and Drugs and environmental control; in Colleges as lab assistants, and it many Universities in research laboratories; laboratory animal mre, laboratory management, etc. The Centre, through the aculty and the Advisory committee, will be making lefinite continuing contact with he many possible sources of employment, with a view to alacing the students in work experience during the summer tenths, Some requests have ',treacly been received in this regard from prospective arriployers. The future certainly looks iright for the graduates of this Programme, and every effort Will )e expended to ensure that they ire truly highly qualified for the rositions that they will fill. FLUID POWER TECHNICIAN The Advisory Committee 3hairman for this Post Secondary Programme is Mr, Donald Young, Consulting Engineer. The dvisory Committee is composed nimarily of people well versed in he field of fluid power and its application to Modern-day eisifiees. The committee has )een responsible for the leVelopmeet of a 'Programme in 01 area of endeavour which is rely worthwhile, The steady growth of the itilizatioe of fluid power On Jan. 26 the Kiesmen Pee Wee team travelled to Zurich for their 1st game with Zurich, Zurich opened the scoring at the three minute mark, but were held off the score boerd after that, white Clinton went on to score four goals. Robert Heard scored two, Bill Roy one and John Hart one, The only, assist that was credited went to Bill Roy, Clinton still has one game to play with Zurich, one with Mitchell, one with Seaforth and one with Dublin, These games-will be played after the W.O;A,A; play- offs are completed. Clinton is in the midst of the playoffs at the present time, with Seaforth and Mitchell, the two other 'C' teams in this zone, The winner will proceed against either Wingham or Kincardine, who are also playing off. In this zone the winner is being decided by a round robin series of two games with each other team, and in case of a tie, goals to count. Clinton has won their first two games against Mitchell—the first on Sat., Jan 29 when Mitchell came to Clinton and the second on Sun, when Clinton went\ to Mitchell. On Saturday the final score was Clinton 5—Mitchell 1. Richard Carter, Gary Tebbutt, Robert Heard, John Hart and Peter Thompson getting goals and assist to Hart, Thompson Tebbutt, Wheeler and two for John McMahon, On Sunday the score was Clinton 5—Mitchel 3, John McMahon picked up two goals and one assist, Robert Heard one of each, and single goals to Steve Jones and Gary Tebbutt. John Hart and Steve Campbell earned two assists each, and single assists to A. Taylor and R. Carter. Clinton's next game is at home on Thursday at 6:30 when Seaforth visits, and back to Seaforthon Sat. night at 8:00 p.m.. On Jan. 28 the Pee Wee 'B' team went to Hayfield and won another game by 7 to 3. Paul Galachiuk picked up two goals and singles to Mark Bell, John Woods, Paul Taylor and Randy Garrow, The score sheet shows assists to Larry Riehl, Jim Moon, W. Ducharme and two for Rick Taylor, longer willing to play Russian Roulette on our roads and are prepared to accept new controls." Mrs. Seeta Sinclair, of London, and a member of the Canada Safety Council, said parents aren't backing up what the schools are doing in safety programs. "No child under the age of nine should have a bicycle. They even ride them to kindergarten. It's the most dangerous toy a kid could have." D. A. Kirk, Assistant Superintendent with• the Department of Education, said his Department is reviewing the whole role of driver education in secondary schools and lie thought that driver education could perhaps eventually become a credit option. Brian ,Hughes, an Oakville teacher, proposed that an Association of High School Driver Instructors be formed by teachers to influence course content and liaise on driver education. Brig.-Gen. Bruce Legge, Chairman of the Workmen's Compensation Board, told a luncheon audience that 1,700 occupational accidents are reported to the Ontario Board every day. "The victims `represent one of every eight members of the Province's work force." Nearly half the industrial accidents involve transportation. He suggested that if seat belts Were more widely used, the accident' rate would he cut. "There is little doubt that if the judiciary can be convinced of the merits of seat belts in deciding negligence cases, the legislators may decide that their use should be written into law," At a school safety education Workshop, delegates generally agreed the existing law regarding when a school bus should flash its signals to load or unload children is confusing to Motorists. They urged that the Proeinee clarify the law by requiring a bus to flash signals anytime children are loading or unloading, regardless, Of the speed limit, The Road Safety Workshops Were the 18th held by the Department in the past 13 years. The traffic safety conference is held in a'different region of the Province each year to stimulate awareness and involvement by the public in safety, HOUSE LEAGUE In !louse League on Sat. the Rangers took that first gaine from the Leafs by 4 to le Tire Leafs goals was scored by Rick Taylor assisted by John Hart, For the Rangers it was Jeff Allan, Rick Tye, P. Thompson and Ray Wheeler. Rick Tye had two assists and Ray Wheeler one. In the second game the Bruins took the Canadiens by 8 to 4. For the Bruins, John McMahon scored 2 goals and 2 assists, Robert Taylor two goals and one assist, Paul Gala,chitik one of each, Dan Weber one of each, Randy Garrow one goal and Craig Millar one goal, Steve Campbell one assist, For the •Canadiens, Allan Taylor with twb goals and singles to Paul Van Damme and Paul Taylor, Steve Jones bad two assists and Earl Flynn one assist, Dtie to difficulty in getting enough Saturdays for House League, Minor Hockey has decided to shift some of the playing dates in order to get in another series for all teams, The next house League will be on Sunday from 5 to 7. The Bruins play the Leafs at 5 and the Rangers play the Canadiens at 6. Please pass this word around to your team mates so that they will realize the change for this week from Saturday to Sunday. SNOW JOB A 10-inch snowfall dumps about 1,000 truckloads of snow on every mile of city street, according to the Salt Institute. Most of this can be plowed away, but deicing chemicals are needed to clear the remaining ice and create bare pavement conditions that prevent accidents and keep traffic on the move, Ward Hodgins dominated the men's section of the IQOF and Rebekalie league last week as he rolled 0 361 single, 820 triple and 218 average, Valerie Marriage led the ladies with a 240 single while Pat Holmes had a 634 triple and Gerry Mande a 205 average.

Most improved Safety tips "People think of traffic lights as safety devices. But that's not their purpose. They're installed to alternate the right of way. Our experience suggestsdhat in many cases traffic lights will increase the number of collisions." DTC traffic engineer A. }Inland, quoted by the Ontario Safety League. One of the excellent reasons for taking DDC, the Defensive Driving Course is that every normal driver shares the road with lots of people who have no right to be at the wheel of a car and whose driving is unpredictable— alcoholics, drug addicts, people who are sick in mind or body. By illustration of the need to drive defensively, the Ontario Safety League quotes this sobering statistic from an insurance company: there are 3 million alcoholics holding jobs in the U.S.—and 87 per cent of them drive automobiles, howler was Tom Duizer wile a plus 21, Forts lead. the league with 75 points while VWs have 61, Cbeve have .56 arid Dodges Lave 46, Ruby Triebner led the way in the Tuekersmith Mixed League with e 262 single and also had a 591 triple, tops among the ladies.
