C. Jack- son, S. Our; and ")lucky" MacDon- ald was appointed to approach the Town Council at its next meeting to see what 4oulld be done in the way of having a curling rink built in Goderich. (During a discussion on the sanb- jeet of a new curling rink, Dr. Jackson said that at the present time the Judith Gooderham Mem- orial Park swimming pool was being used only about 45 days in the year. If the pool were covered and the water heated, when neces- sary, the pool could be used over a much longer period of time and the overall expense of its oper- ation reduced, said D. Jackson. When this was done, the construc- tion could be so extended on the side to. provide for a curling rink, he said. The compleae sea -up would be one to provide for curl- ing and at the same time reduce the operating costs of the swim- ming pool, he felt. It was felt that the Goderich Curling Club could not progress as it should until such a time ae it had a curling rink •of its own. The club voted in favor of joining the Dntario Curling Association next year. 0 - —� Imperial Oil Here Wins Fifth Award For the fifth consecutive year, the Goderich depot of Imperial Oil Limited has ,been awarded the trophy for the excellence of the efficiency and neatness of its set-up and the freedom from accidents enjoyed by its truck drivers.

This rod was seized also when Provincial Constable Ron Du mak, Of Goderich, arrived on the scene for the second time at 1.40 a.m. Pirie, who pleaded' not guilty to both charges, said that he felt he had a right to fish there because the water was stocked with fish put there under a government pro- gram financed by all the people. He claimed the lantern was used only to make it easier to prepare tackle. Expressing open amazement at Pirie's conduct, the magistrate commented, "I don't know what more he could shave done to flout the law except to throw the ?trim- mers in the water." - 0 o 0 ;.1u Man OfMonth's • others on all t&aued4couit5 . , - . a bay, '1[4eonn wanted to be a, seer- Bean. , , . ie vent sir fay' es to tako- pre -urged work at college, but later decided it was merely a WV/ - hood idea, and not leis 'me ,career. . cit ree days after his gra4uta- tion . from college, he a a ied Cheryl, his boyhood sweetheart.
