Forty residents from Huron- view attended the Clinton Spring Fair on Saturday afternoon and appreciated the fine gesture of the board in giving them a free pass for the day. Mrs. Marie Flynn of Clinton, along with the regular musicians, Mrs. Mary Taylor and Norman Speir, supplied the music for the Monday get together. Mrs. Dale of Clinton and the regular volunteers group from Goderich, as well as the Homemakers Class helped with wheelchairs and jointed up with the program.

Nineteen cars driven by United Church men or their wives took part with visits to the Goderich-Bayfield Many decisions before hall start It appears highly unlikely that Exeter will have a new town hall built during centennial year as some people have hoped. In fact,, the realityof a new town hall may be delayed, until 1975 at least. At a special meeting, Teesclay,,, Exeter council discussed the matter with Bruce Martin of the architecture firm of Murphy, Schuller, Green and Martin Associates and deter- mined there were many major decisions to be made before definite plans can proceed. One of the facets is the water tower presently located at the rear of the town hall property. It is due for replacement in 1974 or 1975 and there were suggestions that no building would take place until it has been removed. Two plans were submitted by Martin, one which included a fire hall on the town hall site and one which would have it placed some place else in the community, "It's a question of whether you want to squeeze a lot into a small area," he said. Members of council were agreed that it should not be squeezed and at the same time they suggested that 12 parking places would be ample. "We don't want to develop it as a public parking area," com- mented Councillor Helen Jermyn after Martin had asked whether his allotment of 20 parking spaces was actually required, A discussion was held regar- ding other sites for a fire hall and four alternatives were men- tioned. The need was also noted for finding an alternate location for the works department. Some of the othbr "question marks" were the plans of the department of public works regarding a new Exeter post office and the disposition of the local library. "A lot of decisions have to be made," Martin explained. After further discussion, Councillor Bruce Shaw suggested the building committee meet in the near future to prepare some recommendations regarding the questions raised and Reeve Derry Boyle added a motion that the committee be given power to investigate priees On some of the land being considered as alter- nate sites for the fire hail. area with a brief stop at Pinelake Camp, where they were greeted by the owners Bob and Shirley Elliott, A good number of residents took advantage of the Exeter United Church Womens, Unit I. program and tea held in the auditorium on Wednesday af- ternoon, The group leader, Miss Verna Coates, was in charge of the program with devotion by Mrs. Barbara Bell.

Our guests were two members from the OHIP Regional branch, in London; Mr.D. McKenzie and Mrs. Pat Rogers. Mr, McKenzie gave us a very interesting talk about the processing of medical claims. We felt we had kindred spirits down in London, after listening to the troubles they encounter, and their efforts to, solve them. We will also be advised who to contact at the Regional Office in regards to our particular Doctors claims. Each Doctor is included in a special unit, and each unit has a Leader, and we will be able to thrash out problems with this particular Leader. After the talk, he threw the meeting open for questions, and the girls were able to get special problems cleared up to our mutual satisfaction. We were very pleased to have Dr. P. L.
