Seaterth • By Brenda Burkholder BLYTH - Clinton hosted an exhibition game against Blyth Tykes Friday at 6 p.m. First period ended with a score of 1-0 for Blyth, with Jeff Cowan scoring assisted by Greg Blok. Second period entered with numerous shots on both nets, but none that counted. Shane Burkholder was goaltender for the game. With only four and a half minutes left Clinton scored two goals within a minute of each other bringing the score to 2-1 for Clinton. Five minutes into the third period Clinton scored two more goals bringing the final score to 4-1 for Clinton. It was an exciting game with both teams playing a good game. Along with presentations to their own players, Clinton presented Blyth's Jeff Cowan with a Dixie Lee voucher and Greg Blok a hockey stick.

Assistant Coach John Blok alternated goalies for the game. First period Jason Badley and Mark "Sparky" Wilson shared the goaltending. A minute and eight seconds into the first period Jeff Cowan got a break away and put the first goal on the board for Blyth. Another attempt was made by Jeff, but was stopped by Bayfield's goalie. Mark "Sparky" Wilson shot from right wing minutes later, scoring their second goal. This was followed by an unassisted goal by Darryl Bromley. Less than a minute later Greg Blok passed the puck to defenceman Shane Burkholder who shot and scored the fourth goal of the game. Only seven seconds later Jeff Cowan scored again. Most of the action was at Bayfield's end of the rink. Defence wasn't giving Bayfield many chances to shoot on net. With six minutes left in the first period, Ronnie Abel-Rinn stick handled the puck up the ice from centre to in front of Bayfield's net, shooting, the puck, it slid into the net. Jeff Ferguson liked what he saw and follow- ed suit four minutes later scoring the seventh goal. One and a half minutes left in the first period Bayfield got a break away and scored their first and only goal of the game. Second period entered with Mark "Sparky" Wilson in net, followed by Jeff Johnston and Ronnie Ahet-Rinn. Thirty Council okays grant hike By David Emslie BLYTH - After hearing presentations from Blyth Centre for the Arts represen- tatives at their February 10 meeting, coun- cil here okayed a $200 increase for the cen- tre's yearly grant. Attending the meeting as representatives were President Marian Doucette, board member Sheila Richards and the new general manager Tim Chapman. When making their request for higher fun- ding this year, Mr. Chapman noted that a study carried out in 1985 showed that the money the Blyth Festival injects into the community is a significant amount. He said that for every dollar spent on tickets, an additional 97 cents goes into the community through sales of things like food, gas and lodgings. "These are significant figures," he said. "I realize we have a good relationship with the village; I think the amount we're asking for is justified." Another point Mr. Chapman raised was that the centre did a study on the capital needs of the Blyth Memorial Hall. ''I'm sure you're aware our study lent support to the recent PRIDE ( Program for Renewal, Im- provement, Development and Economic revitiaization of municipally owned proper- ty) application," he pointed out to council. He explained that he is happy to be work- ing in Blyth as the Festival is set up as a theatre for the cominunity. "That really excites me; I believe the theatre is for everybody. I think the Blyth Festival has gone a long way in creating that atmosphere," Mr. Chapman said, ad- ding that he will strive to keep that atmosphere. Mr. Chapman concluded his presentation by saying he is quite optimistic about the up- coming season. In the outlook are a musical as well as the play Another Season's Pro- mise and a few comedies. Included in the comedies may be a play from the author of Cakewalk. Later in the meeting council decided to give the centre their $200 increase, bringing the yearly grant up to $1,500. PRIDE In other business, Clerk -Treasurer Helen Grubb explained that the village's PRIDE application had been sent off. There was some problem with the applica- tion because the land use map did not satisfy Ministry of Municipal Affairs requirements, in that it was to be a zoning map from a com- prehensive zoning bylaw. Mrs. Grubb pointed out to council that the village has no such bylaw. However, after speaking to Sharon Sawchuck from the Ministry, the problem was cleared up. The map under discussion was a zoning map of the village? and Blyth is seconds into the second period Jeff Cowan scored an unassisted goal followed only 20 seconds later by another. This was -Jeff Cowan's fourth goal of the game. Five minutes ,reinaining in the second period defenceman Sha'lle Burkholder shot the puck up the ice to Mark "Sparky" Wilson who shot the puck into the net. A minute later Amanda Anderson shot and scored the last goal of the second period. The score was now 11-1 for Blyth. Third period Ronnie Abel-Rinn, Grag Blok and Amanda Anderson took turns in net. Numerous attempts were made on Bayfield's net but Bayfield's goaltender was beginning to catch on to Blyth's tactics.. Five minutes into the third period Jeff Cowan scored his fifth goal of the game. Less than a minute later Scott Bromley passed the puck to Michael Haggitt who shot and scored. Six minutes remaining in the game Mark "Sparky" Wilson passed the puck to Darryl Bromley who shot and scored the last goal of the game. Four and a half minutes remaining, Bayfield attempted a shot on net but was stopped by Amanda Anderson. Th final score was 14-1 for Blyth. The Tykes nggame is in Clinton at 2:15 p.m. - for theatre covered by the county in this area. "They've given us the preliminary lookover, and the application is in order," Mrs. Grubb said. The application will now be studied by the Ministry office in Toronto. CPR There was some discussion during the meeting on a letter received from Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) about the closing of the Guelph to Goderich line. The letter stated that the company plans to apply to the Canadian Transport Commis- sion for abandonment of the line because it is not getting enough use. Apparently, CP Rail received and forwarded an average of fewer than 10 carloads of traffic a month in each of the last two years for all of the in- termediate points combined. "From what I understand, the first step they take is to apply to abandon the line. If it. is proven their is a need for a line to Blyth, it will be subsidized," Mrs. Grubb explained. Councillor Bill Howson was the first member of council to note that he question- ed CP's estimate of only 10 cars a month. "No doubt, traffic is down," Councillor Bill Manning added: "I think it's a quiet start, if there's no static on closing it, they'll just quietly close it." Reeve Albert Wasson said thatthe ques- tion at the present time is how much use is the line getting. He added that right now it is a trucking world, but if fuel prices were to go too high, or insurance rates got out of hand, 10 years down the road it Gould go back to trains. "How low does use have to get on a line like this before it is practical to stop it?" he asked. Bylaws Four bylaws were on council's slate for this meeting. The first, a bylaw to appoint certain of- ficers and servants of the corporation and to set the renumeration for all officers and ser- vants of the corporation, was passed without discussion. This bylaw will give village employees an increase of four to five per cent over last year. The second, a bylaw to appoint signing of- ficers for and on behalf of the municipality, was also passed. The third bylaw was one which is passed every year. This standard bylaw establishes an interest rate on tax arrears. Under the Municipal Act, this year's interest rate is 1.25 per cent. The final bylaw, one to set the renumera- tion and expenses for members of council, gave rise to some discussion. Councillor Manning agreed to the general bylaw, but thought that the councillor's registration, accomodations .and meals should be paid for if they attended con- ferences for Blyth. He added that the meals should be paid for up to $30 a day, and that vouchers and receipts should be turned into the village. Councillor Howson agreed. "I think if we're going to have a bylaw, we should have that in writing," he said. • This thought was also echoed by Reeve Wasson. "If they take the time to go, they should have the brunt of their expenses paid." Council moved to pass the bylaw with this finai stipulation added. Sunday Opening A letter was recei ed from People for Sun- day Association of Canada asking for coun- cil's opinion on whether they feel municipal or provincial governments should be gover- ning store openings on Sundays and holidays. "I think the government is sidestepping the issue, it's a hot potato," Councillor Man- ning said. When Councillor Lloyd Sippel said he thought it should be controlled on the provin- cial level, Councillor Manning agreed, say- ing, "It seems to me we'd end up with less of a shepherd's coat of many colors." Councillor Sippel added that it wouldn't be fair to business people if Blyth went one way on the issue and Hullett another as people could just take their business to the place that was open. Council voted to reply to the inquiry, say- ing they felt the provincial government should control the openings.
