$DAY, JUNE 1
The home. built canoe -that was reported
stolen in last Week's Signal, was found Thur-
sday . in a ditch on the Bluewater Beach
sideroad. It had been hacked in two.
The 16 foot boat, built from scratch by Shawn
Watson of Goderich, had been completed only
one week •before it was reported stolen on June
8. It appears that the thieves had planned to
remodel the canoe by cutting the last two feet
from the stern and making a squareback style
of it.
Realizing, however, that such a uniquely
shaped craft could never be used in the
Goderich area, it is likely that the project was
abandonned in that ditch.
It had been neither demolished nor masked
%with paint but instead squared off with a saw
and coated on the inside with a tar -like sub-
stance. Various condiments required for
fibreglass work were found with the canoe, but
Shawn said that he had not left any of his own
supplies with it on the night.it was stolen.
As yet, neither, Shawn nor the O.P.P. have
any clues.
• Asked whether the canoe could be repaired as
a squareback model, Watson said that it is
possible but that that area would always be a
weak spot in the craft. He also said, however,
that he could use many of the salvagable
components, such as the ribs, when he begins
his second canoe.
The second canoe, he said, will be much the
same but with a few modifications to make it
lighter in weight.

The MARS 1 weather reporting station will
soon be operational, according to Environment
Canada employee Steve Hardaker.
Hardaker, who will be relocated in Toronto
with a forensic weather outfit, says that the
Goderich weather station will be manned by
Graham Campbell, who worked here,
previously but went to Cornwall to upgrade,
himself. Once the' equipment is functional,
Campbell will be testing its accuracy against
' the existing meol"eianisms and so the station will
be open for a few weeks yet.

Last week, Signal -Star told the story of how this canoe was built, sailed once,
then stolen. And on Thursday, it was found, like this, in a ditch near Bluewater
Beach. The 16 -foot boat, built by Shawn Watson of Goderich, had been aban-
donned with its stern sawed off and coated with a gummy tar. As yet, there are
no clues, but if anyone has any information, the police would greatly ap-
preciate a call. (Photo by Jason Ainslie)

The 15 -week project is being funded by the
federal government and the Huron County
Community. Social Service Council, a collection
of agencies in the county.
Three university students are conducting the
survey and will be working out o.$ offices at. the
Clinton branch of the Huron County Health
Unit.
Janice Dunbar from Belgrave is the project
manager. A fourth year anthropology student
at the University of Western Ontario, she is
working with Joan Huether a Brussslels girl who
is studying at •Fanshawe College and Debbie'
Hunking, from Londesboro, who has just
completed her first year at Fanshawe.
Janice explained the• the group will first be
documenting the existing services offered
through clubs and private businesses including
cabs and bus lines. With that information, it
will be discovered where additional tran-
sportation services are needed and a self'
supporting working model will be established.
Janice explained that in 1978, Huron
Outreach conducted a similar study for the
northern part of the county which calculated
the percentage of senior citizens in rural and
uxban areas and their access to transportation
serviQ s•
Janice noted that the majority of disad-
vantaged people who need transportation aid
are senior citizens and she said that there is a
possibility that many orthese people are living
in urban areas. Despite the further distance to
travel, she explained that disadvantaged
people in -rural areas are often helped by
relatives and neighbors.
The completed survey will be given to the
Community Services Council for study. Any
group or person who can offer information for

Unit, 105 Shipley Street in Clinton.
and the CN teletype computer re -programmed
before the system will be on "go".
In the wake of these developments, Goderich
will be left without the usual services of a
weather station.' Farmers wishing for frost
reports, police requiring weather data or
boaters and navigators interested in fog
warnings will have to call a London office for
information in the future. However, that office
will only be able to give certain meteorological
data and only presume on fog conditions by
reading the ceiling height and the dew-poipt •
level.
In short, the new automated weather station
will provide London and Toronto with a
srloreline statistics keeper, it being the only
post on Lake Huron between Wiarton and
Sarnia.
• And according to Hardaker, who is also a
flying enthusiast, pilots who might plan a flight
to Goderich on the advice of an on;ground
weather observer will now delay that trip if a
machine is, only able to provide superficial.
information.
"There, are advantages and disadvantages,"
he said, "'but the loss (of human observers) will
affect many more people than just small -craft
pilots."
