The Board of Governors of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation this week approved the application of radio station CKNX, Wingham, for a license to telecast on Channel 8. The board said the new TV outlet would extend the national service and pro­ vide local coverage, and was "techni­ cally acceptable.” Board Chairman. A. Davidson Dun­ ton said at the hearing that Wing­ ham’s application was the most thorough-going received so far this year. The government-in-council is expected to issue the required license tn the near future. The installation of facilities will be­ gin as soon as the license is received so that the station may start telecast­ ing some time this fall. Present program plans call for a weekly program schedule of about 60 hours. Approximately half of this time will be devoted to network pro­ grams, mostly from 5 to 6 p.m. and from 8 to 11.15 p.m. The remaining time will be divided almost equally between local programs and film transmissions. Network facilities will be provided through a microwave link from Kit­ chener. Microwave will be used again to link the studios to the transmitter which is located about 16 miles north­ east of Wingham. Will Serve District The new TV station is intended to serve Bruce, Grey, Huron and parts of Dufferin, Perth, Wellington and Waterloo counties, a population of approximately 200,000. The transmitter will be built about three miles south­ west of Walkerton, in Carrick Town­ ship, almost in the centre of the area of coverage, and it is expected that a strong signal will reach as fat as Owen Sound and Wiarton. Present indications are that there will be approximately eighteen mem­ bers on the staff of the station, although some of these may also con­ tinue their duties with the radio station which will continue its opera­ tions. W. T. Cruickshank has been named general manager of the new station and G. W. Cruickshank station mana­ ger. Other appointees are: Vin Ditt­ mer, sales manager; Scott Reid, chief engineer; G, Schiefelc, transmitter engineer and Don Hildebrand, produc­ tion director. During the past couple of weeks, members of the staff have visited television stations in Kingston and Peterborough to gather information on their methods of operation, H.S. Board Sets Tax Rate at 5.3 Mills; New School Costs Only .3 Mills Extra Almost coincidental with the open­ ing of the new high school; members of the Wingham District High School Board got a pleasant surprise last week at their regular meeting, when secretary-treasurer W. A. Galbraith presented estimates for the year which set the tax levy at 5.3 mills—only one third mill higher than last year’s rate of 5 mills. The estimates include the first debenture on the new high school building, and indicate that the board will not have to raise its tax rate materially to pay for the new $635,000 structure. When the new building was in the planning stage about two years ago board members at that time expressed the hope that they would be able to Local Industry Gets Mention in Stratford Alf Lockridge, local businessman and business manager of the WOAA, gets a mention for his industriousness In Chic Appel’s column in the Strat­ ford Beacon-Herald. Chic had this to say about Alf: “Alf Lockridge, who has taken on the big job of secretary-manager of the Western Ontario Athletic Associa­ tion and is doing a mighty fine chore, of it too, can’t have many leisure' moments. Alf owns and operates a re­ tail business in Wingham, and un­ known to this corner, also owns a re­ freshment booth on No. 8 highway just west of Stratford.

McKINNEY, Mayor » Town of Wingham build the new school without raising the rate, which at that time was 7 mills. With the board statement show­ ing a healthy surplus in 1954 and 1955 the rate was reduced to 5 mills in 1954, and it was hoped that a raise of not more than .3 mills would be neces­ sary to build the school. With the budget announced last week this am­ bition was realized. $19,000 Surplus Estimates for 1955 show total re­ ceipts of $185,104.20. Included in these is a balance from 1954 in the amount of $19,793.49 representing a surplus from the previous year.

To Publish Reports Members of the board discussed the question of publishing school reports in the local press. Several members thought that all school reports should be published and a motion was made to this effect. The board decided to join the Ont­ ario School Trustees Council, and appointed Walton Todd, of Brussels, to attend the council’s convention in Kingston on behalf of the board. Members also decided that “No Smoking” signs should be put up in the gymnasium and that containers of sand should be placed in the halls for use of organizations using the gym­ nasium as a meeting place. Ask Lower Rates A letter from the Huron County Federation of Agriculture was read at the meeting, suggesting that service clubs and educational groups should be allowed to use the gymnasium­ auditorium free of charge or at mini­ mum rates, if no admission was charged. The board discussed the matter at some length. A rental rate on the gymnasiu^n and kitchen had already been set at a previous -meeting. Dr. W. A. McKibbon thought that the rates set at the last meeting for a period of six months, should be ad­ hered to for the period stipulated. A. D. MacWilliam suggested that smaller groups could make use of the library of the school instead of the gymnas­ ium, reducing the cost of caretaker service. He pointed out that special protective wax must be applied to the floor when the gymnasium is used, which with the cost of caretaking, makes the rental rather high. R. S. Hetherington suggested that rent be charged for the gymnasium only when rented by. an organization which is charging admission. It was finally decided to leave the question with the school management committee..
