Hensall busy meeting recreational and social needs in the community
By
Hilda M. Payne
Hen'sa11 citizens have
their new Community
Centre, thanks to all who
participated in the fund
raising efforts and now
the recreation committee
is looking towards other
needs.
In March, the Hensall
Recreation Ball Com-
mittee was formed
consisting of And,y
Imanse, fund raising
chairman; Roy Bell,
construction chairman;
Kay Gardner, secretary;
Tom Neilands,treasurer;
Brian Campbell, Dave
$male, Bill . Smith,
Charlie Dalrymple and
Bill Soldon. The com-
mittee decided t,i2 find out
how much interest there
The construction
committee investigated
the location of the new
diamond and with the
approval of the parks
board, decided that it
would be located in the
north-west corner of the
Park directly behind the
Arena. The reason this
location was chosen was
that further construction
of utilities. would not
interfere with the
diamond, and the
diamond would be more
accessible to parking,
washrooms facilities and
to the pavilion area. Also,
this location would least .,
interfere with other uses
of the Park.
The" diamond is
estimated to cost $9,500
which includes
cavation costs for'"' the
the May" meeting of the
Hensall Women's
Institute held in the
United Church on
Wednesday, May 9 at 8
p.m. The meeting opened
with the president Mrs.
Cecil Pepper in the chair
who opened with a poem,
"What is a Grand-
mother?" Present were
20 members and 26
guests. The roll call was,
"Name your. grand-
mother's birth place'"
and grandmothers were
introduced.
Mrs. Sam Rannie gave
a report of the 31st
Officers Conference held
at Waterloo University;
565 members attended
representing 565 bran-
ches in Ontario. Mrs.

Lodge member on It was decided that a
. new ball diamond would
have to be built because
the old diamopd was
destroyed by water main
and sewer construction
and the location of the
;new arena. The old
lighting system has
deteriorated from old age
so new lights are needed.
(It should be noted that
Hensall had the first
lighted ball diamond in
Huron County.) .
A fund raising sub-
committee was..i=.ormed.to
raise funds and a con-
struction sub -committee
was formed to locate and
build the new diamond.
After meeting with the
Hensall Park Board, the
latter decided they would
match any funds raised
by donations and that
application would be
made to Wintario,
(ministry of culture and
recreation) for funds. It
was found that capital
expenditure from Win-
tario had been stopped,
but because of the en-
thusiasm of interested
ball groups it was decided
to carry on without
Wintario support:
Wednesday was largely
attended with 14 tables
played.
Euchre prizes were
won by: , ladies' high,
Mrs. Mary Mellis; ladies'
consolation, Mrs.
Blackwell; lone hands,
Mrs. Hugh Morenz; lucky
chair, Malcom Dougall. A
draw was made on a
cushion donated by Mrs.
E. Chipchase and was
won by Mrs. Flora
Dowson and Mrs. Mary
Mellis.
The Noble Grand Mrs.
Hazel Corbett spoke
expressing appreciation
to those attending.

NOW IT'S OUR TURN TO VOTE
ON THE NEW GUN LAW
On July 18th, 1977, 94 Liberal Mem-
bers of Parliament voted in favour of
Bill C-51, Justice Minister Basford's ill-
conceived and constitutionally danger-
ous "Peace and Security" legislative
k' package. This Bill contains highly con-
tentious issues: Gun Controls and Wire -
Tapping.
At least one .area of concern makes Bill
C-51 totally unacceptable to all legiti-
mate firearms owners. This is: Order in
Council -- law that can be enacted
outside of Parliament and implemented
at the whim of virtually any senior civil
servant. Viz: the arbitrary restriction on

looms. And, needless to say, with no fi-
nancial recompense to you.
Almost as unacceptable are the sec-
tions that provide for search and seiz-
ure without warrant and this bill places
onus of proof on the individual which is
in direct violation of the traditional "In-
nocent until proven of.

ople who don't like Bill C-61 can do
