Three reeves from south,
central anti north Huron res-
pectively, are candidates for
the wardenship in 1964. An-
nouncing them selves at the
closing sitting of county council
Thursday afternoon were J. Roy
Adair, Wingham; Ralph Jewell,
Colborne, and Glenn Webb, Ste-
phen township.
"Who is speirin' for the
job?" enquired Warden Forbes.
"It is 40 years since Wingham
had a warden," said Reeve
Adair. "I would bring this honor
to the town, much more than to
myself. I think the town has
earned it, and if I am back here
I will try for it."
"I intend to be a candidate
for the wardenship," said Mr.
Jewell. "I have spent five years
as reeve of Colborne and five
on council and enjoyed it very
much. I have had the pleasure
of sitting on some very gopd
committees and some wonderful
experience. It is 23 years since
Colborne has had a warden, and
I feel I should contest it."
Mr. Webb took note of the
saying that "the last shall be
first." He congratulated the
warden upon the way in which
he had carried out his duties.
"An article in the press
names candidates for the war-
denship," he said, "and perhaps
there is nothing to do but en-

GOT/ERICH
Within a few weeks a meet-
ing of Trinilleipal fire chiefs in
Huron may be called to renew
discussion of a mutual :aid fire
system,
This forecast by To„ C. An-
derson, of Guelph, instructor
in the fire services division,
Ontario Fire Marshal's Office,
came at close of g long dis-
cussion on the report of the
emergency measures commit-
tee and an oral report from
the county ,co-ordinator, Stuart
Forbes.,
Only two Ontario counties are
without a mutual system, county
council, was told, Huron is one
of them.
"In Huron," said S. E, Oxen-
ham, Toronto, assistant chief
of the fire services division,
"we have endeavored on two
occasions in five years to or-
ganize this system. The re-
sponse at the time was not
adequate for us to produce a
proper system.
"The reasons were varied.
Primarily, it is confusion in
the minds of fire chiefs and
some officials. Mutual aid is
not meant to augment or sup-
plement fire departments for
everyday operation, but for a
fire similar to what you had in
Goderich. In such cases, neigh-
boring municipalities respond,
and outlying areas will provide
cover for the responding muni-
cipalities."
Mr. Oxenham explained that
in most counties the chief of
the largest paid fire depart-
ment is made co-ordinator for
the mutual aid system. There
is no paid fire chief in Huron,
and Chief Scott 'of Seaforth has
been named co-ordinator, " with
the hope this stopgap would
be adequate to provide us with
PAIR
proper administration so as to
Organi4e this system. He has
worked hard on the system,
but to no avail. The answer as
to why we have not progressed
further I really cannot give
you,'"
Co-ordinator Forbes told
council: "Before we can get
EMO operating properly we
must have a mutual aid fire
system."
Reeve W al k o m, Goderich:
"Would it be proper to name
the town or towns which are
not agreeable to go Into this
mutual aid? If Goderich is at
fault I would like to know, and
I think- the reeves of Clinton
and so on would like to know."
Oxenham: "It is not in
my province to put the finger
on any municipality, but God-
erich has been one of the strong-
est supporters. There have been
three or four municipalities
which flatly refused to enter
mutual aid, and it must he
obvious to you we have had a
great deal of opposition or we
should have gone ahead. It does
not affect private agreements
between departments."
To Reeve Tom Leiper, Bul-
let, Mr. Anderson said there
are 14 departments in Huron
with trucks, most of them with
two.
"The EMO situation here is
rather delicate in a way," co-
ordinator Forbes said, "and
there is not too much public
acceptance. The province has
given me rather wide scope, and
I am hopeful of obtaining some
concrete results, but our limi-
tations may curtail them.
"It is apparent from ou r
nearly disastrous fire a week
ago that a mutual aid fire sys-
tem is long past due. I would
ask you to give this much thought
and support immediate action.
dorse this and make it official.
If the people of Stephen see fit
to send me back, I hope to enter
the contest. Running for warden
would be a simple thing if you
could say your opponents were
incompetent but--and this is not
you people who will do the
choosing."
Huron,"
"There have been a lot of
enquiries from allover Canada,
especially Eastern C a na d a,"
said Mr. Adair. "We should
have 150,000 people in 1066.
"You have all read some
local newspapers with articles
-- I do not know where they got
their information, but there is
no truth in them. The site corn-
mittee went over the county and
Picked out locations suitable to
accommodate the match, and
that required 800 acres, with
59 or 60 of high, dry land for
the tented city. Then we report-
ed to the O.P.A, what we had
done, and did not hear any, more
until after the match in Caledon.
They came up and we met in
Clinton and had four possible
sites throughout the county,
right from north to south.
"We toured the sites and they
did the choosing, and were in-
fluenced in no way by the com-
mittee. They chose the one they
considered met the require-
ments, Tbere is a tremendous
amount of detail about this; you
have to have good plowing land,
not too many fences, and ac-
cess is a main feature.
"We had with us representa-
tives from the Ontario Police,
and they do not like sites on a
highway. Cars come 40,000 a
day, starting about nine in the
morning, and after 1:30 or 2,
we were told, it drops. You
have to get them in in two and
a half or three hours. This
property at Seaforth is a little
off the highway, the entrance
can be off a county road.
"I want this cleared up: there
was no influence put on our O.P.
A. committee.
Reeve Stewart Proctor, Mor-
ris: "We exercised no influence
whatever, or put any pressure
on the Ontario Plowmen's As-
sociation.
Reeve Adair: "The commit-
tee of 20 should be picked be-
fore spring. The land is under
cultivation, but will be seeded in
spring, and we should have
about two-year-old sod for the
tented city."
Reeve Tom Leiner, Hullett:
It is the feeling that Huron
County Plowmen's Association
should carry this through,
working along with the agricul
ture committee."
Warden Forbes: I am pleas-
ed they picked the site they did,
because if there is any money
to be made Huron should be able
to get it, not the people of some
other county. If a loss, it would
be on the part of Huron."
More Huronview rooms
Reeve Glenn Webb, Stephen,
whese municipality would have
been host if the 1966 Inter-
national Plowing Match had gone
to Grand Bend airport, won it
round of applause in county
council last week when he call-
ed for an end to the site fight
and stressed need for co-opera-
tion from all municipalities in
the comity.
He told county council; "A
lot of stuff in the papers has
been quite bitter, and developed
into a sort of family fight which
won't do us any good with our
potential customers,
"We in Stephen of course
were disappointed when our site
was not chosen. I was privileged
to be a member of the group
at the match in Calecion, and we
were there to promote a match
in 1966 and gain any information
on how to hold a match. Pro-
bably the most important thing
we found out is that holding a
plowing match is a whale of a
big job and needs the whole-
hearted co-operation of every-
body concerned.
"Last Thursday tile agricul-
ture committee were in the area
where the match will be held,
and I can assure you all it is a
good site,
"We have two facts: the match
is coming to Huron in 1966; the
site has been chosen, and -what-
ever disappointment or dis-
agreement there is nothing to
be gained by further accusations
and denials. I would call upon
everyone who worked so hard to
get the match here in '66 and
those who have worked for their
own particular sites to use their
energies now, that are probably
being wasted in other forms, to
make this a success." (Ap-
plause)
County council members took
note, unfavorably, of critical
articles in the press regarding
the site chosen for the Inter-
national Plowing Match in 1966.
Discussion followed a brief
mention in the report of the ag-
riculture committee, presented
by Reeve J. Roy Adair, of Wing-
ham. It said:
"Your local site committee
met with representatives from
the Ontario Plowmen's Asso-
ciation regarding the possible
location of the 1966 match. The
committee from the Ontar io
Plowmen's Association has se-
lected a site at Seaforth as
their choice. We hope that an
overall committee will be form-
ed soon to commence planning
for the 1966 Plowing Match in

the setup down there, perhaps
it could be used for both. Four
of the staff are living in at
present, he said. There have
been seven or eight.
Answering an enquiry by Mr.
Dunbar, the superintendent said
partitions between single rooms
in the main part of the home
could be taken out, clothes clos-
ets removed, and accommoda-
tion increased in that way. .
"We have in residence 205
people, and a number in hos-
pital :" he reported. "In 1960
we had 105 --exactly 100 more
now. There are 83 male, 122
female. Just now there is a
greater number of male ap-
lications. Admissions this year
were 58. At present, more are
applying than we have beds for.

We looked into driver edu-
cation at three different schools
and tried to get the thing started,
but it was voted down because it
was going to cost us roughly
$20 a pupil. I think it is a good
thing, but I do believe the school

Mr. Snider distributed copies

Two days before the board of
Central Huron Secondary School
called upon high school boards
in Goderich,E xete r, Seaforth,
and Clinton to retain their grade
nine students in certain cour-
ses, the need for it was set
forth in county council by Larry
Snider, county representative
on the board of Huron South high
school.
"There is going to have tobe
a building program some
place," he said. I would sug-
gest one shop and two class-
rooms, and what they call now
a team-teaching room, which
they would use as a cafeteria.

director at Clinton we can give
