The three young people, Gerry Davies, Brian aiinns and Donna Fraser are taking the series of 14 shots to defend against the • disease, Dr. Tom Pridham of the College staff and an employee Charles Glanville took a booster shot • Saturday, The two receive this type of shot each year. The sheep brought to the College for original diagnosis on • September 30 were from the flock of Gordon Young, RR 1 Thorn- dale. Dr. Pridharn said 10 or 11 sheep were brought in and "we didn't suspect rabies in the first place. Then a live one which was down in its hind quarters was brought • in and we x-rayed and observed it for several hours." The College official continued, "Later the same day I decided it was rabies and had the animal killed. The brains of three animals were sent to the Canada • Department of Agriculture in PS time change now permanent For the last three and one half weeks, Exeter Public School has been experimenting with time changes in the daily schedule, and this week decided to make the changes permanent. The changes involve a shor- tening of the lunch hour from one and a half hours to one and a quarter hours for the senior grades; the dismissal of the kindergarten children at 11:30; grades Ito III at 11:45 and grades IV to VIII at noon, with all classes beginning again at 1:15. The kindergarten and grades I ▪ to III are then dismissed for the day at 3:30 and all classes no later than 3:45. We thought that the younger children needed the longer lunch break but that the senior grades did not, explained Principal • James Chapman. The purpose for the changes include more effective and ef- ficient supervision, better scheduling of time for subjects on rotary, co-ordination with bus schedules and fewer in- terruptions due to staff • obliga tioea attend professional meetings. Besides, said Mr. Chapman, it is difficult for the, children to really concentrate When they see the high school getting out so much earlier. • 1•Ie said they had no negative feedback from the changes, and in fact, crossing guard Hank Greensaid that when the primary pupils can cross before the 12:00 traffic from factories, his task is easier and the crossing is much safer for the pupils. • Mr. Chapman said if the school had adequate lunch room facilities, he would reduce the lunch hour even more. With the present facilities, however, this is impossible. • School board — Continued from front page not seek re-election this fall. Those who will run for re- election are Charles Rau, Mrs. Marion Zinn, Wilfred Shortreed, Garnet Hicks, Clarence McDonald and John Broadfoot. Those who still have not reached a final decision on the matter are Alex Corrigan, Don McDonald, Mrs. Mollie Kiunder and John Henderson, Cayley Hill of Goderich was not • present at the meeting although Mrs. Zinn indicated that it was understood Mr. Hill would return. George Parsons, also of Goderich, probably will return next year although he did not wish to give his final decision at Monday evening's meeting. • • Hull, Quebec for diagnsis for rabies, Two of the three were returned positive," Pridharn said the animals came from a large flock of about 100 but didn't think they would be destroyed, but were probably under quarantine, TheYoung flockof sheep are new under the supervision of Canada Department of Agriculture of- ficials in London, Agency owner Caven speaker Frank J.

No, we've not joined those using derogatory names to identify policemen. A stray pig was found in Usborne Township this week and anyone missing such an animal may inquire at the Exeter OPP office. The animal is being cared for by an area farmer until its owner can be located.

J. Ivey. Abeverageroom chair valued at $30 was removed from the Dufferin Hotel in Centralia. — Continued fr an front page Bray replied this would be a possibility and at this point emphasized that the lagoon was being designed as a 20-year project. "We're not merely designing it for the present," he stated. He noted that the population projection called for Exeter to have between 4,500 and 4,900 residents in 20 years. Ottewell re-entered the discussion to suggest it didn't make sense when two cells now services half the town and the ministry was asking that the lagoon be tripled to ac- commodate the half planned for completion next year. Reeve Boyle followed the same line of questioning, pointing out that when the system was first considered, it was expected that four cells (44 acres) would handle Despite envoking numerous new regulations in recent months, Exeter council still has problems with building permit applications. Monday night a lengthy discussion arose after a request for a permit was received from Keller to rebuild the Burkley Restaurant for John Tzavaras. Council members took one look at the plans and decided they did not contain enough detail and a motion was presented that all permits be approved subject to final approval by the building inspector, with the exception of the Burkley. Councillor Ken Ottewell argued this was penalizing one applicant because two other applicants for buildings had not even submitted plans. Driftskippers start season The first meeting of the year for the Exeter and district Driftskippers will be held Tuesday October 24 at 8.30 at South Huron District High School. The Driftskippers are mem- bers of the Exeter and district snowmobile club and plans for the coming year will be discussed at Tuesday's meeting. Some of the expected season events will include resort weekends, Sunday afternoon trail rides, possible trips to races at Peterborough and Mosport and safety talks and films. One of the first events of the year for the Driftskippers is the annual dance to be held at the Exeter Legion hall, Friday, November 10 with music being Supplied by the Bluetones. Admission is being restricted to 125 couples. At the present time mem- bership iri the Driftskippers in- clude about 80 Exeter and district families. JiM Newby is president of the Driftskippers with Dalton Skinner arid Tom Arthur serving as vice-presidents, Gladys Skinner is the secretary arid Andrea Gaunt handles the treasurer duties, a town of 10,000 people. Boyd replied that the ministry had become "more sophisticated" in knowing the capabilities of streams into which sewage was to be discharged. He said, in fact, there shouldn't he any sewage runoff into the river at the present time, although it is being used. Ottewell said he felt the ministry was "overbuilding" in their plans for the town and suggested also their projected population figures were too high. Further discussion was held on the matter, with members quizzing the engineers further on the report. "Thanks very much for the disappointing information," Mayor Jack Delbridge said as they prepared to leave the meeting, ' He charged council members with being inconsistent in- withholding any approval for the Burkley while the other two applicants were given tentative approval, even though they had not submitted any plans at all, It was finally agreed that all three would be referred back to the applicants to have them submit proper plans to the building inspector. Council members indicated he could then approve the permits if he saw fit. Again Ottewell noted this was contrary to existing regulations. He said the building inspector was not allowed to approve homes before council had been assured the pla,ns were okay,and now they were setting a precedent by allowing him to approve commercial buildings much larger than most homes. The other two applications in question were for Exeter Roofing to build a workshop on Thames Road East and for Angus J. Graham to erect an addition to the building occupied by Algoma Tire Ltd. on Main St. North. Applications that were ap- proved, subject to final approval of the building inspector were as follows: Lloyd Fletcher, to renovate Elaine's Coffee Shop and grocery store at 132-134 Main; Walter Tiedeman, to make interior renovations at 110 James; Ward Fritz to re-roof apartment at the corner of Highways 4 and 83; Moses Beckler to re-side house at 78 Huron W.; Paul Ducharme to build a carpor' at ^51 Sherwood; Mrs. L. Mchn is, to make interior renovations to huuse on Gidley. Vehicles collide at intersection The only accident of the week in Exeter occurred Tuesday night at 9.50. Involved in a collision at the corner of Main and James streets were vehicles driven by Eugene Jewell, 169 Duke street, Strathroy and Donald McCallum, RR 1, Woodham. There were no injuries sustained in the crash and Constable John Gorley estimated total damages at $500, Actually the "disappointing information" had been received by council at a meeting with consulting engineer B M. Ross, Goderich. He attended a special meeting last Wednesday, in- forming council the ministry had rejected the proposed plan to build only two new 11-acre lagoons at a projected cost of $64,000. At that time he estimated the cost of the 44-acre lagoon required by the ministry at $200,110. He reported he had met with officials of Canadian Canners in an effort to determine their Exeter plant requirements for the next 20 years. The company is presently preparing this report, After it is submitted, council will sit down with the industrial waste branch of the ministry of the environment to draft an agreement to be presented to Canners for a sharing of the costs of the work. Mr. Ross stated his office could come up with the cost and design, but Canners and council will have to sit down and work out a fair plan of assigning costs of the project on a proportionate basis.

Reeve John Payne reported at Monday's regular meeting of council that he bad received numerous complaints from ratepayers who were prepared to pay taxes on Saturday mornings and found the office closed. The office will be open three hours each morning from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. on a trial basis for the next three Saturdays up to and including November 4. If the number of business transactions warrant it, con- sideration will be given to ex- tending Saturday openings to other portions of the year. Councillor Murray Des Jardins opposed the Saturday morning opening saying, "People can still buy money orders and stamps to send in their taxes," A letter was received from Hay township clerk Wayne Horner saying that municipality is not interested in a fire agreement with the Grand Bend fire department at this time. The Grand Bend-Stephen- Bosanquet fire committee in- formed council several weeks ago that they were instructing the Grand Bend department not to answer any calls in Hay town- ship, Two weeks ago council asked Hay for re-consideration on an agreement due to the fact a lot of Censors — Continueds fromtore recently front page in a Toronto and found it distasteful. He said he read it, but didn't buy it, Councillor Helen Jermyn said she was in agreement with some type of censorship, but added there appeared to be no problems in Exeter. This was borne out by com- ments from Councillor Tom MacMillan, who sells paperbacks at his Main St. store. He said he recently told a salesman to send in 150 of the current best sellers, but when they arrived he found some of them objectionable and they were not put on the shelves. He said they would have been offensive to some of his customers although they were the best sellers in larger centres.

A letter was read from the Ontario Ministry of the Environment reporting on the recent hearing held in Grand Bend regarding the location of a lagoon for a proposed sewage system. The decision of the board of inquiry was to ask the consulting engineer to look for alternate locations. At the September hearing, the three proposed locations in Stephen township were strenuously opposed by land owners and the township of Stephen. Councillor Paul Panel, head of the finance committee gave an interim financial report and stated, "We are basically on stream and with careful spending Present awards to best riders Two elementary school children in Exeter have been named the best bicycle riders during a three week safety contest sponsored by the Exeter police department. Margaret Hansen of Exeter public school and Elizabeth Giffin of Precious Blood school this week each received a certificate and a five dollar bill. The contest was originally scheduled for two weeks but officers of the local department had problems on deciding the winners and needed extra time, Chief 'red Day said all children were observed as they travelled to and from school and some were questioned as to rules of the road. Day also added, "riding habits of the youngsters have improved considerably over the past three weeks, so we feel the contest was a success." The chief also reported receiving several complaints this week of young cyclists riding at nights without proper lights. He advised anyone detected riding without lights could be subject to a fine of $8. AlWaSalaitsaangeMBelss, EXETER UNITED CHURCH James at Andrew Minister: Rev. Glen D. Wright, B.A.,B.D.

Reeve John Payne and all members assured Albert Delatala and Dr. Don Gratton that council would do everything in their power to get assistance from the federal government in remedying the problems in the future. Delatala said opinions he had received from engineers in- dicated some of the erosion comes from prevailing winds whipping around the federal pier causing literal drifting, Dr. Gratton said he had spent more than an hour talking with U.S. Army engineers in Michigan this week. They suggested little piers or groins be built per- pendicular to the beach. Gratton said the water is higher this year than ever before. He continued, "most years the high water usually hits its peak in August but this year it's con- tinuing into September. Our only hope is for a mild winter with limited precipitation."
