Speaking to the enthusiastic gathering were Ontario Liberal leader David Peterson and MPP Jack Riddell who has represented the Huron -Middlesex riding for the past 12 years. In his remarks Mr. -Peterson compared the present Conservative government led by Premier Frank Miller and one he hoped to head following the next election. He was concerned that Mr. Miller would be cutting back on social services especially . for small town hospitals. In the same vein the Liberal leader said those wishing to enter hospitals for surgery have ,been waiting as long as six months. Mr. Peterson called for more • job skill training and greater assistance for. agriculture. He continued, "Our farmers need help to stay in business with higher prices for their products and rower interest on loans needed to operate." Jack Riddell said he was concerned with. Prime Minister Brian Mulroney's open door policy to the United States. He added, "Too much foreign investment could return us to branch plant problems and create a downturn in the economy." "A free trade route with the United States could damage Ontario industry and especially our, agnicultural marketing boards," added the local MPP. Middlesex Warden Bill Lane of Dor- chester paid tribute to Mr. Riddell for his ef- forts in trying to restore the Middlesex coun- ty jail and attempting to obtain more beds for Strathroy hospital. Also in attendance was Don Smith, the newly • elected president of the Ontario Liberal Party. His wife Joan will be oppos- ing MPP Gordon Walker in the riding of London South in the next election. •Riding president Joe Hogan was master of ceremonies for the dinner which was follow= • ed,by dancing to Maple Sugar.

Mr. Scott, a Board director since 1977, is Ontario's representative on the Canadian Egg Marketing Agency. With his wife Gwen,. he operates a custom hatchery and breeder flock in addition to his egg production opera- tion near Seaforth: There are 15 producer -elected directors on the Ontario Egg Board, who are responsi- ble for the Board's policies and operations. Thirteen are elected by egg producers in 13 zones or areas of Ontario; two 'are elected by pullet producers, or those farmers who raise chicks to egg -laying age. Egg producers in each zone elect a com- mittee to elect a director for that zone. Pullet producers elect committeemen to vnfP fnr a nnllat nrnrinrer rlirartnr fnr Parh half of the province. Producers met in Varna, on February 20 to elect committeemen for Huron County for 1985. They are: Egg Committeemen: Ralph Buffinga, Clinton; Marjorie Cartwright, Londesboro; Jacob Hiemstra, Bluevale; Bill Dougall, Exeter; Bryan Durst, Clinton; Doug Easton, Exeter; Richard Kootstra, Clinton; Jim McIntosh, Seaforth; Ed Miller, Exeter; Larry Johnston, Auburn; Bill Scott, Seaforth;, Larry Taylor, Woodham; Clarence Vanderlei, Londesboro; Pieter Westerhout, Granton.

Flood potential greater With the water equivalent represented by the snow cover being two times greater than the average, the Ausable-Bayfield Con- servation Authority (ABCA) is hoping for a . gradual thaw with only light rainfall. Alec Scott, Water Resources Co-ordinator with the ABCA says that the best possible situation would be "a prolonged period of mild days where the temperature dips back below freezing at night with no major rainstorms." He added that the mild weather expected over the weekend .of February 23 wasn't anticipated to cause a Major snow -melt and runoff. , Scott says that the Conservation Authority has , a better ability to monitor the flood situation this year as a result ofim- provements made to its flood monitoring system. "We have added a compilter com- munication link with the Provincial Streamflow Forecasting' Centre and in- stalled a new water level gauge at Port Franks. The computer link means we have quicker access to informations concerning weather conditions. which could trigger serious - flooding problems while 'the water level gauge will enable us to better monitor water level changes in the Ausable Cut at Port Franks. • Last year ice jams at Bayfield and Port Franks caused flooding problems near the mouths of the -two rivers. Scott reports that the ice thickness on the Ausable River at Port Franks is currently about the same as last year when the ice jam problems, occur- red. If flooding problems appear imminent the Conservation Authority will. issue a Flood Advisory or a more serious Flood Warning to . Member Municipalities who will be af- fected by the flooding. It then becomes the Municipality's responsibility to take the necessary steps to prevent loss of life and minimize property damage.
