New police cruiser will be yellow
The Goderich Police Commission The town's new cruiser will be painted
open three tenders for a new police yellow since the Ontario Police Com -
cruiser at a meeting on Monday, accepting
that of Jim Hayter Chev Olds at a price of
$12,412.
The other two tenders were from
Strickland Motors Ltd. ($13,329.71) and
Goderich Plymouth Chrysler ($12,268.62).
Although the latter tender was the lowest,
the commission turned it down because it
did not meet all the required
specifications.
mission feels yellow cruisers are more
visible and act as a deterrent to would-be
violaters of the law.
Goderich has two cruisers, trading in the
older of the two each year for a new one.
This year, however, the town does not have
a trade-in since one cruiser was,
demolished in an accident in September.
That accident claimed the life of OPP
Constable Bruce Crew.

about criticism.
"If Mac Campbell and Max Cutt weren't
on the committee it would fall on its face,"
he said. "And other members have felt put
upon because we they were complained
about. A lot of the duties of the committee
arose out of the Sesquicentennial in 1977,
activities organized by a large group of
individuals, but now are left to the tourist
committee to carry on."
Dialogue between the committee and
council would ease the tension deputy -
reeve Jim Britnell suggested.
"Is there a polarization here?" he asked:
"We took money out of the tourist budget
last year but there was no official
delegation that appeared before council.
You just sulked. There was a lot of
grumbling but nobody said let's talk about
it.
Much reference was made to the annual
Festival of Arts and Crafts, organized by
Lu Legg with assistance from the tourist
committee. Tourist committee member
Jean Adams said the festival was well
established and should be run by a board of
directors, separate from the municipality.
It would also then be subject to Ontario
Arts Council grants.
The tourist committee is trying to do
"too much work" and should dot more
promoting Elsa Haydon told the meeting.
"Nail and hammer work is done more on
this committee than any other," she said.
"But the personal element of the com-
mittee is important and should be con-
tinued. The Festival of the Arts is im-
portant to the town but it it depends on an
outside group it will lose its continuity.
"I feel strongly that there should be
continuity and security of the town's setup
for the Festival of the Arts."
Mrs. Legg who organized the Festival of
the Arts each year with her husband, said
the festival is important in promoting the
town of Goderich but added that it was
almost impossible to get volunteers to help
out.
"If you want progress, then moreTnoney
is needed," she said. "Volunteers do not
always show up and someone has to do the
work."
Some members of the tourist committee
voiced concerns over the cancellation of
meetings. Wfiile regular monthly meetings
are scheduled, they are often cancelled
and rescheduled, making attendance
difficult for some.
In a related matter, the committee
agreed to close a Festival of Arts bank
account that was not incorporated into the
town books.
In a report to the committee, ad-
ministrator Larry McCabe said no other
such account, in which expenditures were
not approved or signed for by council,
existed. McCabe said that $3,500 to $4,000
moved through the account and that
nothing was wrong with the handling of
the account."
Councillor Jim Searls said the town
contributed $700 to the festival for a
reception and the committee spent an
additional $620.

TripDisney to World is
dream come true for Peter
Sometimes, dreams can come true.
Just ask Peter Doherty of R.R. 3
Goderich.
For Peter, a long-time secret dream came
true last Saturday as he was jetted off to
Orlando, Florida to explore the fantasy of
the animated and adventurous world of
Disney World.
The son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Doherty of
Port Albert, Peter is a muscular dystrophy
victim who attends classes regularly at
Goderich and District Collegiate Institute.
And it was in an English composition that he
revealed a secret desire to visit the famed
Disney World complex in Orlando, Florida.
Word of that dream reached members of
the Goderich Volunteer Fire Department
and as one deaprtment official said, the
dream certainly wasn't out of the real of
possibility. "One of the guys mentioned that
he wanted to go to Florida and 'Ive- just"
started thinking, well why not." - - Things started rolling from there and
before long a host of private individuals, ball
teams, businesses and organizations con-
tributed'to the realization of Peter's dream.
Money for the trip was raised through
donations organized by the fire department
and travel arrangements and ac-
comododations was arranged and sub-
sidized by Thompson Vacations of Toronto
in co-operation with Harbour Light Travel of
Goderich.
On Saturday, it was an excited Peter
Doherty who left for the Court of Flags Hotel
in Orlando with his parents Frank and
Isobel. The Dohertys were to spend one
week in Orlando, returning Saturday,
November 26 and special trips and activities
were arranged for their entire week's stay
in Florida.
Members of the volunteer fire depart-
ment, who orchestrated the entire trip for
Peter and his parents, expressed their
thanks to many individuals, teams and
organizations that helped make the trip
possible. Some of _,the :.donors incl t;;;;
Goderich Men's Football and S1owpih
League, Cedar Lodge, Goderich Chryslers, 1.
Little Bowl, Carlow Country, Kinsmen, the
Police Association and many other in-
dividuals who offered private donations.
Anglers object to licence renewal
The parks and waterfront committee of
council has been asked to examine a request
from the Maitland Valley Anglers
Association urging council to object to the
application of a licence to the Game and
Fish Hearing Board by local fisherman Mr.
R. Moody.
In a letter to council, Maitland Valley
Anglers Association president, Fred Salter
said that Moody has made application to the
Game and Fish Hearing Board for a licence
to trawl for smelt out of Goderich. The
assocation says the supply of smelt and

alewives, forage food for salmon and trout
would be seriously affected.
The association boasts a membership
over 200 and has been working with the
Ministry of Natural Resources on a stocking
program of rainbow trout for the Maitland
River. Sport fishing would deteriorate
because of the lack of smelt the association
suggests.
The fish licencing board will hear Moody's
application in January 1984. Council
referred the letter to the parks and
waterfront committee and a recom-
mendation will be made to council.
