"We do not disagree with Ole need for a 50QkV power line out off the Bruce Nuclear 'Development," Ken Mc- Gregor, vice chairman of the Foodland Hydro group, said last week. "The issue is where the line should be located." • He said Foodland Hydro agrees with the findings of the Porter royal com- mission, which recom- mended in 1979 after four years of hearings that only one more 500 -kV line is needed out of the Bruce. It DOIT•YOURSELFERS We're Here to Hel also recommendedavoiding agricultural impact, even if there are cost penalties. "This position was con- firmed by the Consolidated Hearing Board three years later in 1982," Mr. McGregor added.. "Their recom- mendation Was the modified M3 route from Bruce to Barrie and on to London via Milton. This route was found to have the least impact on valuable foodland. "Contrary to some media coverage," Mr,. McGregor said, "Foodland Hydro has not delayed the building of a transmission line. The, delay was caused by those along the M.3 route who sought to set the decision of the hearing board aside." Foodland Hydro is a broadly-based group of land- owners and other concerned citizens from Bruce, Huron and Middlesex counties opposing a hydro corridor traveling south from Bruce to London through much of the best agricultural land in the province. Ontario Hydro, mean- while, has said it will an- nounce sometime in July which of two systems it prefers to get power out of the BNPD, M1 which runs south through Huron and Middlesex or M3 which runs east to Barrie and then along the 401 to London.. Once the preferred system has been announced, hearings will be held similar to those which took place at Stratford in 1982. MNR funding for authorities The Maitland Valley Con- servation Authority has been granted over $600,000 to undertake various water management, conservation and recreation ' projects within its watershed for 1985. The funding is part of an overall total of $36.9 -million in 1985 provincial grants to the 38 conservation author- ities in Ontario. The level of grants, to be used for capital projects as well as for general adminis, tration; is fully ilr1iile with `' levels fbt° MP ageheies ivhich receive provincial funding. tv The Wingham Advance -Times, May 15, 1985—Page 11 SACRED HEART CAKE RAFFLE & BAZAAR—Betting was fast and furious as members of the Sacred Heart PTA raffled off an assortment of delicious -looking cakes Saturday afternoon at the Wingham Armouries.

Wingham council shorts douncil gave a sym- pathetic hearing to deputa, tions from two churches in town objecting to a proposal to limit parking along Centre Street. Representatives from St. Paul's Anglican and St. Andrew's Presbyterian churches said the proposal to .ban parking along one side, of Centre Street during the winter months would cause problems,- • since their parishioners depend on parking along the street to attend evening meetings. Both groups proposed lifting the parking ban between the hours of 6 and 11 p.m. as a compromise solution. Council reacted favorably to the suggestion, explaining that its concern had been that cars parked along both sides of the street during the winter restricted access for emergency vehicles. The matter was referred to the police commission and public works committee for input before a final decision is, made. 0-0-0 Five new members have been appointed to the board of the Wingham and District Museum. After being presgnted with a list of volunteers, council appointed Mrs. Mabel Jacklin, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Henderson Jr., Cathy Hen- derson and Ernest Eaton.

Mrs. Bailey told council the business association is very anxious to get going on the parking and plans to ,appoint its representatives at its next meeting. She said the association has already been looking at properties.

The names and money are to be handed in at the meeting to Mrs. Dave Gibb or Mrs. Alan Falconer. Mrs. Annie Conn gave an interesting motto: A recipe for a happy home. She said home is the abiding place of one's affection and Where the "heart" is to be found. This was followed by a poem and a sing -song with Mrs. Ross at the piano. Two of the songs sung were. "Rome on the Range"' and "Springtime in the Rockies". The Institute ladies thanked the 4-H leaders, Mrs. Walter Elliott and. Mrs. Archie Purdon, for their leadership with the . girls. Various quilting samples were on display and a display from the group's basic baking course. Kim Laidlaw gave a report on the projects taken and events attended. The girls also studied gardening and home beautification. The club' members are: Karen Elliott, Allison Wardrop, Miss Laidlaw, Cathy and Marilyn Dow.' Mrs. Tiffin demonstrated icings and trimm'i'ngs for wedding cakes. She was thanked by Mary Hehn. A penny auction then was conducted by Mrs. Brenda Day, assisted by the 4-H girls.

Hailing from, Lindsay in Victoria County, Mr, Hamilton' is a 1985 graduate of the University of Guelph His tasks in Huron County will involve coordination of the 4'-H program and liaison with other organizations such as Junior Farmers and agricultural societies. Currie said -the committee should be an arm of council, "since the funding will eventually come from here." Councillor Crump said he was "not so sure the funding will come from here," byt he did not elaborate. 0-0-0 Deputy Reeve Bailey will be council's representative on the board of the Wingham and District Hospital for the balance of this council term. Council received a letter from Mayor William Harris, who. was absent from. the -- meeting, . tendering his resignation ' as municipal representative on the hospital board, "due to other commitments and an ex- cessive number of meetings which I now attend." Mrs. Bailey agreed to accept the post until November, but said she will not be returning to council this fall. 0-0-0 Council plans to hold a public contest to design a logo for the town. A panel of judges will be assembled to pick the top entries, with prizes going to the winners. Council has not yet decided what the prizes will be. The finance -management committee recommended the logo contest, with Councillor Jack Kopas noting that a logo is easier to design than a coat of arms and also can be changed if it should fall from favor. The logo, which must include the towncrest of the beaver and maple leaves, can eventually be used on such things as a town flag. s he vm tokeep W1111w1 yourbudget. There are two, actually.
