RAP report — Continued from Page 1 been turned over to them for maintenance. Underwood said he was not aware this had been done, but it had now been "duly noted." Accompanying Underwood to the meeting was rec director Jim McKinlay, Who was introduced to council members. He said he was finding the community very friendly and was enjoying his new position in that he had encouraging responses from all age levels. McKinlay said he would promote a community-Wide approach to recreation and net be stressing any one program in particular. The Huron County board of education took a swipe at the county planning department Tuesday for not consulting the board during preparation of the official plan for the community of Zurich, The plan calls for the expansion of the village's residential and industrial sectors, based on a soon-to-be-completed sewage system, Board trustee Herb Turkheim of Zurich terms unfounded the plan's assertion that there was "ample space at the existing site" for expansion of the 170- pupil Zurich Public School. He said the planning depart- ment had not consulted the board on school facilities in the area. The possibility of explosive growth, in the area should not be ruled out, he said, noting that would render the school totally inadequate. Since Ontario Hydro hinted last January it was looking at Huron County sites for nuclear generating stations to sup- plement the existing station at Douglas Point, it has been suggested that the Zurich area may be a prime candidate for such a site, Mr. Turkheim said, the .Zurich school could not cope with arapid population growth. Excess pupils would have to be buSed six miles, east to Hensall. The board will notify the Ontario ministry of treasury, economics and in - tergovernmental affairs, which had asked for board comments on the plan, that the planning department's evaluation of Zurich's school situation was wrong. In addition, the board will request that the county planning department discuss with the board administration future official plans when dealing with educational facilities. In other business at the meeting Tuesday, Sherwood. Eddy was appointed head of the English department at South Huron District High School at Exeter on a probationary period of one year, effective Sep- tember 1.

"How do you say thanks?" Chapman asked. "I can't say enough for all the people who contributed their time to make it such a success." The principal said that there will be another production next year although it won't be an operetta. We're very happy with it, he said the children really put a lot into it. At the end of Thursday's performance, presentations were made by the lead performers to three staff members.

Dr. Mark MacGuigan, MP for Windsor-Walkerville will speak at the Liberal nomination meeting in Clinton, Monday May 27, Two music nights planned in Huron The Huron County Board of Education is presenting two "Music Nights" in the near future. One concert will be held at South Huron District High School, Exeter on Tuesday, May 28 and the other at Goderich Collegiate Institute, Thursday, May 30, "Music Night" is a new venture for the schools of Huron County. The idea originated at a meeting of the music teachers of the county earlier thiS year. It is an attempt to acquaint the public with what is being learned in music by students in Huron schools. Both elementary and secon- dary schools are participating, It will also afford the students an opportunity to see other schools in action. Primary, junior and intermediate choirs, recorder and ukelele groups and bands will be taking part. The concert at SHDHS will involve students from Hensall, Huron Centennial, J,A,D. McCurdy, Seaforth, Stephen, Usborne and Zurich public schools and Goderich District Collegiate, Peforming at the Goderich concert will be Colborne, provincial government that legislation be amended to provide that school buses be required to operate their flashing signals when loading or unloading school students from a street or road- way unless unobstructed sidewalks are provided together with a system of crosswalks or signal lights so that students may cross the street or roadway safely. Termination of the school year was questioned - June 14 for secondary pupils in Huron, while some other counties are per- mitting June 7 if no examinations have to be written. D. J. Cochrane, Director of Education, said "I sympathize but don't see how we can change. I know we are right. Every school has to submit a school calendar to the Ministry and at present the requirement is for 185 in- structional school days. J. P. Alexander of Wingham said he was questioned by a pupil who wanted to work and felt it was unfair to have to compete against pupils out of school a week earlier. Mrs. Marion Zinn of RR 2, No candidates have been declared. Won't tackle store hours Exeter council steered clear of an attempt to establish uniform hours for retail merchants. The Retail Merchants Association of Ontario sent them a letter outlining proposed hours and asking them to approve same and forward their resolution of endorsement to the Ontario Association of Municipalities for their consideration. The resolution from the merchants' group would allow stores to be open on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and on Thursday and Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Outlets dispensing newspapers, tobacco, meals, drugs, gas and tourist communities would be permitted to operate on Sundays and holidays. The resolution noted the move would result in a shorter work week for store staff and owners, would reduce product cost by reducing operating cost and would be doing the consumer a favor, Reeve Derry Boyle wanted the letter turned over to the Board of Trade, although a motion was approved that it be filed, "I threw mine in the garbage," stated Board of Trade vice- president, Ben Hoogenboom, in indicating he was not interested in such legislation. "There are too many controls in this country now," remarked another businessman, Tom MacMillan. He wondered why the petition backers thought restaurant people should work on Sunday and not other people. "You can eat out on Saturday just as well," he explained. Holmesville, Howick, Hullett, Robertson Memorial, Victoria and Goderich Collegiate Institute students, Showtime is 8 p.m. each evening. In each instance an afternoon rehearsal and concert will be held the previous afternoon at 12:45 p.m, Tickets at one dollar each are now On sale. Proceeds from the music nights will be used to further music programs in Huron schools, Lucknow suggested that the Board apply to the Ministry to see if it can be changed so that there would be no discrepancy from one board to another.
