(News-Record photo) 10,0,141'0N IINWS-RECORD, TIJURSDAY, AAOUr 1974 New safety check Minister of Transportation and Communications John R, Rhodes has announced details of the Motor Vehicle Inspection program coming into effect the first of September, Under the new program, a Safety Standards Certificate can be issued only by licenced. Motor Vehicle Inspection Stations, and each inspection of a used vehicle must be carried QUt by a mechanic registered with the Ministry, The Safety Standards Cer-, tificate will replace the Cer- tificate of Mechanical Fitness now in use. In Ontario, a motor vehicle must undergo an inspection of its safety related components prior to resale or transfer of ownership. It is estimated that approximately one-third of the vehicles in the province is in- spected each year under this program. In making the artn.oun- cement, Mr, Rhodes said, "The purpose of this program is .not to take cars off the road, but to have mechanical defects correc- ted at the time of resale, resulting in safer vehicles on our provincial roadways." There will' be approximately 5,500 licenced .stations throughout the province, mainly at service station and tar dealerships. Each station whip be inspected prior to the issuing of a licence to ensure sufficient space, tools and equipment are available to properly complete the safety standards inspection. Mr. Rhodes indicated, "The new program is designed to provide a uniformly high stan-. lard of inspection throughout the province and to insure the public that both the mechanic and the station producing the certificate meet the standards established by the Ontario Government," CD1 1 4 p After September 1, 1974, all used vehicles must be inspec- ted at a Motor Vehicle Inspection Station prior to the time of sate or transfer, Service stations licenced by the ministry of transportation and communications to carry out a Safety Standards Certificate inspection will display this sign.

The pool is great to have here judging by the line-ups the children are enjoying it very much. It will be opened through the whole month ,of September. The lessons are going very well and more than 30 have enrolled for all classes. There is, always a nice line- up in the afternoOn for '" all waiting to go swimming, it sure is great to see all enjoying themselves. RECREATION Recreation Complex proposals for Vanastra to serve all of Huron County include covering the 25 metre pool, starting on Nov. 1st and it will be completed by Jan. 1st 1975 so we will be able to spend more time swimming than we expected. They day care centre has been approved and will serve up to 35 pre-school children, as soon as the facilities are ready you will be notified. The auditorium will be renovated to compliment the indoor swim program and will have all gym facilities needed. All the facilities should prove favourable and should prove of interest to all people in Huron County. Funds to be used for the covering of the pool will be sponsered by the Recreation Committee and are hoping to get the service clubs in Huron County to assist in project by having a lottery, so hopefully we will get help from all who are approached to help in this project. By next week, I will be able to tell you more about our new Recreation • Director and you will know who he is and I un- derstand he is very well qualified for this position. He should be here hopefully by the middle of September, so then we will have a full winter ahead of us with all sorts of things to do.
