Hay Council Plans
Two -Year Terms
(By Gerry Rader)
Phil Overholt's home run and
Dick Bedard's single in the last
inning last Thursday night gave
the Zurich Kings a 5 to 4 win
over St. Marys in a Huron -Perth
baseball game,
Zurich took an early two -run
lead in the first inning on Don
O'Brien's double and Earl Wag-
ner's single. The Kings held
their lead until the fourth as
the stone town tied things up
and then in the fifth went ahead
four to two.
The Kings came back strong
in the last inning with Overholt
homering and Doug O'Brien and
George Haggitt scattering sin-
gles to bring home two runs
and win the ball game, five to
four.

The council of the Township
of Hay, at a special session on
Monday night, approved two-
year terms of office, beginning
in the year 1969. When rate-
payers of the township nominate
in November, they will be pick-
ing officials for two years in-
stead of one.
This plan is being adopted by
many municipalities throughout
Ontario, and is a move aimed
at giving councils more oppor-
tunity to complete projects
which they might start in any
one given year. Most other
eouicsl in this immediate area
have already switched to the
two-year terms.
The big part of the special
meeting on Monday night was
taken up with setting up a budg-
et and arriving at the tax rate
for 1968. A few details still
remain to be worked out before
the actual rate is set, but ac-
cording to clerk -treasurer
Wayne Horner the council hopes
to be able to arrive at a tax
rate within the next week.
In other business at the spe-
cial meeting council completed
work on the Masse drainage
works, and also processed an-
other tile drainage loan.

George Haggitt's double and
Bob Johnston's single gave Zur-

The Kings collected a pair in
the second on Doug O'Brien's
and Bob Johnston's singles, but
were held there until the last
inning when they rallied for
two more.
Zurich was threatened in the
first as Hensall loaded the bases
but only managed to score one
run as hurler Don O'Brien
pulled the Kings out of the fire.

Barber Boys Continue Losing Streak
In Zurich Rec League Softball Play
Barbers Get Clipped
Last Wednesday night the
Teenagers trounced the Barber
Boys 34 to 11 in a Rec League
softball game. Peter Regier,
Ray Finkbeiner, Ron Desjardine
and Gerry Rader each socked
out home runs for the Teenag-
ers, as well as triples by Rich-
ard Schilbe and Brian Decker.
Randy Decker went the dis-
tance for the Teens and was
backed up by his teammates
allowing the Barbers only five
runs after the second inning,
when they collected six. In the
Barbers' second inning rally
Jim Bedard, Gord Lavery and
Eric Smale each scatter ed
triples.
Gary Jeoffrey started the
Barbers off on the rubber but
was relieved in the first inning
after the Teens crocked out
eight runs. Bedard was pulled
after giving up ten runs in the
fifth—three of the hits were
hone runs. Bob Merner then
came to the mound for the first
time in his career and struck
out three in a row, but in the
eighth he gave up seven runs.
Bob stated after the game that
posable bottles and empty tin
cans carry a hidden danger for
motorists and maintenance
crews.
Such objects tossed from cars
cause accidents by shattering
windshields or slashing tires of
other vehicles. Mowing ma-
chine operators have been in-
jured by flying glass and cans
flung up by the revolving blades
of their machines.
Generally, the cleanness of
our countryside impresses your
American tourists 'because high-
way litter is more of a problem
in that country than it is in
Canada.

Tons of Litter on
Ontario Highways
-Ontario's vacation trek will
reach its peak during the com-
ing Civic Holiday week -end and,
with the combination of thous-
ands of visiting vacationers,
our highways will be heavily
travelled.
From the experience of past
Civic Holiday week -ends, thous-
ands of tons of litter will be
left strewn along our happy
holiday routes by careless and
thoughtless travellers.
The housekeeping involved in
keeping our highways clean and
our countryside beautiful is be-
coming an expensive item as
more and more people take to
the roads.
Last year it cost the depart-
ment of highways more than
$750,000 and in an attempt to
