Howick Lions encouraged
as pool project started
Howick Lions Club received
strong encouragement in its cur-
rent swimming pool project and
long-range plans for development
of the recreation facilities in the
member communities of Ford-
wich, Wroxeter and Gorrie Mon-
day night when guests from visit-
. ing clubs endorsed the program.
Half a dozen members of the
Atwood club were outspoken in
their encouragement, reporting
from their own experience with a
similar project which has been a
highly valued asset to the com-
munity for the past two years.
Jack Graham, a past president
of the Atwood club, was particu-
larly outspoken in urging the
Howick club to proceed vigorous-
ly and give the communities
leadership. He said the Atwood
club had to overcome consider-
able „scepticism which soon
changed into enthusiasm when
tangible results started to - ap-
pear. •
Visiting Lions
Representatives were • also
present from Lions Clubs in
Wingham and Blyth, with nearly'
200 persons turned out at the
Wingham Legion Hall on Friday
evening to welcome Robert. Mc-
Kinley, the federal member of
parliament for Huron riding who
is seeking re-election as the Pro-
gressive Conservative Candidate.
He was accompanied by Mrs.
McKinley.
There was a strong representa-
tion from the neighboring town-'
ships surrounding the town of
Wingham, as well as from Bel -
grave, Blyth, Clinton, Seaforth,
Walton, Ethel, Bluevale, St. Hel-
ens and a large turnout from
Brussels.
Music was ' provided by the
Twylites, a popular group from
Zurich, and the dance floor was
comfortably crowded all evening.
Bob McKinley was greeted by a
most enthu"siastic ovation upon
his arrival and was visibly
pleased to see such a large crowd
of supporters present. He had
come directly from a large Lions
Club gathering in Lucan.
A delicious smorgasbord lun-
cheon•was served by a committee

a dozen attending from the latter
club. At the conclusion of the
meeting more than $50 was
raised by an auction of draw tick-
ets to kick off the financial cam-
paign, and books of draw tickets
were issued to club members and
visitors as well. The tickets are
being sold at $5 each and entitle
the purchaser to be eligible for
each of 12 monthly draws for
$500. Encouraging sales have al-
ready been reported by club
members, indicating the club is
off to a good start on the cam-
paign.
Guest speaker for the regular
program was Rev. Percy Dodds,
new rector of St. Stephen's Angli-
can Church, Gorrie, who chose as
his topic "Family Life", urging
greater interest in young people
by the club.

Edward Bains, Goderich
machinist, Independent Socialist
candidate in the forthcoming fed-
eral election told The Advance -
Times last week that his main
reason for opposing the, candi-
dates of the old line parties in
Huron is to make Socialism a bet-.
ter known word, and to "dam-
age" the NDP.
An ex -member of the NDP, Mr.
Bains was an independent candi-
date in the last provincial elec-
tion in Huron, polling about 200=
votes. He writes off as hopeless
the Liberal and Conservative
parties and considers the NDP
program would • be' a "patch-
work" effort compared to genu-
ine Socialism, which he contends
would "solve all our problems".
Asked to name a country with. a
genuine Socialist government, he
replied: "The USSR". .
