The Blyth Standard, 1978-04-05, Page 1THAT SHOULD STOP IT - Snell's Feed silo north of Blyth, was on fire last week.
Thursday Blyth firemen were called in to control the fire. Workers noticed the door
at the base of the silo was burnt. The burnt door was replaced and held in position
with an iron bar supported by a front end loader tractor. Corn foam around the door
steamed for hours in the cold air. As of press time the fire is still smoldering.
Corn fire
still going
Fire which had been thought to
be under control a week ago
continued to plague firemen and
employees at Snell Elevators at
press time Tuesday.
The fire in an elevator at Snell's
feed and supplies at Westfield
Hort!) of Bly .th was first noticed
10 days ago,
The Blyth Fire Department was
called out Thursday after workers
at Snells were unable to
extinguish fire in smouldering
corn.
At press time the smoke and
steam from the silo made it
impossible to determine how
much corn is left in the silo and
whether the fire' is still active,
The fire was noticed first a
week ago when Snells were
transporting the two year old corn
to another silo. When they shut
down on March 25 for the
weekend some brown corn had
been noticed but was not
considered unusual, On
commencing work again on the
following Monday some fire was
seen at a door at the bottom of the
silo, "We cleaned up- the fire and
that seemed to be the end of that
, said Ron Snell, Vice president of
Snell Feed & .Supplies Limited.
On Tuesday and Wednesday
there did not seem to be much
trouble. The door was a bit
burnt, But nothing we could not
handle ourselves," he said.
But by Thursday the silo had
become hot. Air circulation
resulting from the corn being
emptied from the side had
encouraged the fire and the fire
department was called in.
Chief Bowes of the Bly th Fire
Department decided to use foam'
to extinguish the fire, It was later
reported to the Snells by an
insurance adjuster that if water
had been applied the intense
steam thatwould be created could
have exploded the silo.

Visitors keep
council thinking
Blyth council saw residents
taking active part in the
governing of their village this
week.
Reeve Don Noble welcomed 30
4-H members to Monday night's
council meeting, held in
Memorial Hall and said he hoped
"some of you will be sitting on
council sometime."
Complaints were brought to the
attention of council.
About Water
Viola Haines asked how far
the planned drain will go this year
and if she will be able to hook up
to it.
At present Mrs. ' Haines has
water in her basement and has
had to roll up her new carpeting
and pile 'everything into the
middle of the room.
"I pay taxes and I feel I should
have an outlet for drainage". The
water is coming from the North
lot Mrs. Haines pointed out.
At present Mrs, Haines has a
sump pump to take the water
away but in event of a hydro
blackout her basement would be
flooded.
The heavy flow of last week was
too much for the sump pump and.
Mrs. Haines had to call in help to
get the flow of water into her
basement controlled,
"I can't leave for more than 24
hours without water damaging
my home", said Mrs. Haines.
Councillor Bill Howson pointed
out that a "lot of homes have
sump pumps in Bly: th, and others
complain of the gravity drains
backing up when the ground gets
saturated".
No decision can be made until
the engineer's report comes in
later this week. The report will be
able to tell council how far they
can go with the drain before the
slope of the land makes it
impossible for drainage.
Charlie Smith approached
council about cleaning up a
section of land above the creek.
The water washing down the hill
brings with it debris and is
prese ntly workingon a tree that
is ready to fall and possibly injure
someone Mr. Smith said.
Councillor Howson apologized
for not seeing into the cleanup
natter last fall and made
arrangement's with Mr. Smith to
investigate the matter further.
Council will approach property
owners in the vicinity about
cleaning their land of washed-up
debris.
Council voted to join the Huron
County Municipal employee
benefit package and agreed to
pay 75% of the $30 monthly fee,
with employees paying the
remainder. The high monthly cost
is due to the older members.
When;, more younger employees
are later enrolled in the program
the basis for assessing will be
broader as the cost will go down.
The package covers $10,000 life
insurance policy, 100% drug plan
and 2/3 of wages for disability
payments. Part -time employees
are covered by Workmen's
Compensation. New full time
employees will pay the first year's
payments in full, council decided.

TAPPING DEMONSTRATION - Grades 2 and 3 East Wawanosh students had a
field trip Thursday to the Maitland Valley Conservation's sugar bush south of
Molesworth. Here Robe Kelp, Maitland Valley guide, shows Brian Ramsey how to
tap a tree by demonstrating on a fence post. Students were accompanied by
teachers and parents for the tour. Booklets were issued at the school so that
students could sketch and answer questions in books rather than waiting when back
in the class. The sugar bush is a first year project of the Conservation Authority in
educating the public. (Standard Photo)

THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 5, 1978 -- 3
A crowd out at council
[By Rhea Hamilton[
It was a delight to see so many
4-11 members out to the council
meeting Monday night. I hope
they took an active interest in
what was being said and will keep
that interest alive and' attend a
few more meetings on their own.
A few parents should follow their
example and get out and attend a
few of the meetings themselves.
Once the election is over many
voters feel their job is done and
do not worry about council till the
;.next election or until they have to
pay their taxes. Even then they
usually don't make a fuss, except
perhaps to tell a neighbour who
sympathises because he is in the
same boat.
I hope the atmosphere and
conduct of the council did not
intimidate anyone, Memorial Hall
is not where the council usually
meets. it prefers the smaller
quaraters of the county library
next to the clerk's office.
The hall placed the council all
in a row with their Sunday best
on, The distance over which they
had to speak did not help matters
much either.— 4-H members
should have sat in the front row of
the hall. i have y et to see any of
the councillors, the reeve or the
clerk bite anyone at a meeting.
But don't let this all fool you,
The council meets and gets right
down to business every month
and hies to do a good job for all
the taxpayers.
Local people ride with
Huron Trail Club
Once the riding horse as well as
the work horse was thought to be
on the way out with all the other
methods and objects of a time
now long past. But in Ontario
there are a number of groups
which arc promoting the
enjoyment of riding horses and
thus keep alive the art of riding
'l'hc Huron Trail Riders have
been around for 12 years and as
Sue Boak, press 'correspondent
and member, pointed out, some
have been with the club all that
time. •
The club sponsors trail riding
every second Sunday of the
month at different locations.
These outings are not restricted
to members.
The club, like any other, is
always looking for new members
and appreciates all the
encouragement it can get.
Members come from Goderich,
Auburn, Blyth and as far away as
Seaforth. Last year so many
people came from the Seaforth
area that the club split in two, half
in the Dungannon based club and
the rest forming a new branch in
Seaforth. Sue Boak pointed out
that some people have kept
membership in both clubs as both
offer something different and it's
always f un to do more. Sue
herself belongs to both clubs as
well as the Exeter Club.
The membership is already 55.
Not all membes have to have a
horse but it helps.
Some of the members don't
have horses but have children
who arc involved and so they get
involved as well and help at
meetings either with food or
planning, or even in giving
lectures.
The club is active and not only
sponsors rides but gets together
for horse shows and toward points
in competitions.
The club is facing another
problem this year. All clubs are
sanctioned under the Midwestern
Horsemen's Association, Without
this sanction there would be less
involvement from other member
clubs. The problem comes from
the Association reducing the
sanction radius from 60 miles to
30 miles based from Elginfield,
near London which cuts out the
Huron Trail riders from the area
of sanction.
As a result the points won at
any of the Huron shows would not
be eligible for the Associations
shows and awards. Without this
incentive there would be a drop in
participation from other clubs.
"We are really debating as to
what to do, Without the
involvement of other clubs in our
shows we don't really know if we
should go ahead and plan for a
show", Sue Boak pointed out.
But club activity is not
restricted to shows.
"We have 3 club shows per
year and different events
throughout the year for practice,
but we mainly stress trail riding
for enjoyment. Although we are a
Western saddle club we
encourage English riders to
join", said Sue. "We even have
sonic English events planned",
The bigger clubs with more
members have larger funds to
draw from therefore' can offer
more in the way of prizes.
Despite the problems they face
Trail Riders continue active and
have many events planned for
this year.
Coming up on April 9 is a
schooling and training cli nic on
western pleasure and equitation
when the guest speaker will be
Nelson Bilyca. Thetirst trail ride
is scheduled for May 14 at Gord
Johns in Auburn and there is a
card party in Carlow April 13 to
raise funds for the club.
Tie club provides active
outdoor activity and memberships
are $5 single and $10 for a family.
It is a family involved sport and
the main objective is just plain
enjoyment.
All you can do is keep your eyes
open and participate in your
council, You elected them
remember?
**a:***
Another good thing
happened this week, maybe not
for all of us, but for a very select
lucky few. The Wintario and Loto
draws attracted winners 111 the
Blyth area. Carmen Shultz, that
lucky devil, won $200 Sunday
night and $50 Thursday night.
And that's not all. CArmen has
won quarters of beef, and a
goodly sum from tickets bought
for local events. He has also won7
$25from Wintario, but as Carmen
Shultz says he is 'still waiting for
the big win',
in Wilson's store this week
heard another winner talking
about his big win but modesty
kept hint from divulging his
name. Boy wait 'till 1 know a few
of you better and I know your
names then I'll publish your luck
for all to see,
There is a sucker horn every
minute they say but I think it's a
lucky winner born every minute at
least from the odds in Blyth.
******
I ant sure that many of you lire
tired of hearing that spring is
coming and coming and coming.
But it really is.
1 saw robins last week and a
raccoon out of hibernation too.
Monday night, in the evening
twilight, on the way home, I also
saw a grey heron carefully poised
in a spring runoff.
And talk about wishing for
Spring. We have ordered trees for
around the house and Saturday 1
was looking at tree catalogues.
Well all Saturday night 1 dreamt
of digging holes around the yarad
and planting trees. 1 was running
around getting fertilizer and was
totally exhausted Sunday
morning when 1 woke up and the
sun shone through my window.
Much to niy dismay there was still
snow on the ground. All that work
for nothing well at least I'm well
rehearsed as to where to put my
trees when 1 finally start to plant
in a few weeks.

Big Brother
Big brother sees all. A funny science fiction idea
you say? Think and look again.
In these times of rising inflation where everyone
who has a wee bit of financial reward is looking for a
tax shelter, the government is the last one we want to
know about our financial gains and losses.
Science fiction books are always prophesying our
demise and that the tasks that we humans were
responsible for would be taken over by the computer
world.
In a recent science fiction publication we are told
how everyone was given a series of credits and when
anything was bought or paid for, all that was
required was the insertion of a card. The transaction
would be quickly audited and completed without
anyone ever handling currency.
The day is coming when that very same system
will be with us here.
There is now a service available where special
cheques are issued that may be used for property
taxes, medical and dental bilis or legal fees or any
type of expenditure where a credit card is not
presently accepted.
These are treated as cash advance transactions
and are subject to regular interest rates from the
date the cheque is posted to one's account. It is so
easy, just apply.
With all our business and personal expenses duly
recorcied in a vast memory bank, our privacy is
slowly being eroded for the sake of efficiency and
convenience.
We are not advising misuse of funds or secrecy
from the government, but there should be a line
drawn somewhere. The masses, you and I, are being
shuffled and reshuffled through computor memory
banks which take in and remembers every item we
write, perhaps even our thoughts.
There is not an inkling of information about us that
before too long will not be duly recorded and ready
and available for use by government or any other
agency that may be interested.
Big Brother is watching so be careful, How much
of your affiars do you really want to be known?
Haveyoursay now
The school situation is not yet resolved in Huron
County. Many of the parents and students involved
have opinions and points of view which have not as
yet come to light.
If and when an arbitrator is called in the printed
words and letters of concerned people will be taken
into consideration.
If you hayed anything to say about the situation as
it stands now or as It should be, please write and be
heard. Let us have your opinion in writing.
In order to have the strike situation settled fairly
for teachers students, and parents, all thoughts,
must' be recorded so that no one is left out of
consideration when the final decision comes down.
Remember, if you don't say something now you
won't have a chance later, when the trouble has been
resolved.

Family crises
jby Keith Roulston 1
I1ave you ever noticed 110al we spend a sol of
time talking 81)0111 the big crises of life when
it's the little things That really affect us most?
Television and the newspapers talk
incessantly abou '1 out domestic economic
woes when what affects most or us more is the
tit1le'don►estic battles such as whether the
toothpaste tube should be squeezed from the
middle or the end (nay wife squeezes from the
middle while I work from the end). They talk
about the tensions between the Arabs and
Israelis in (he Middle East wllile wllal really
matters is the tensions between husband and
wile when he leaves his dirty socks silting
around the bedroom( Boor instead or putting
them away in file clothes hamper.
There are (many bad jokes made about the
troubles of a maul and woman adjusting to
each other in the first (lays of then' marriage
hilt it's aetllally very tl'uc as nearly anyone
who has hccn Married will n(Imil. Really when
you think of it, it's tribute to the flexibility of
human beings that there aren't more
marriages (hal end in disaster because people
can't learn to (10 things a different way, II'
people showed as much willingness to
accommodate others in their whole life as they
d0 in their marriage, the world would he a
better place,
We talk about national unity but when you
think of il, each family is a little country of its
own. Each has its own rules, its own customs
which are a little different than all (Ile others.
When two people who have bccn raised under
Iwo sets of euslonls tin' the firs( 20 years 01'
their lives suddenly trove in together, without
any period of getting adjusted, it can be like
Iwo trains on the same track heading for a
collision unless both parties are willing to give
and lake on the things they are used to,
In our family there's been a good deal oI'
giveand.take, We settled the toothpaste issue
1)y simply ignoring each other's habits. She
still squeezes from the middle and I squeeze
from the end and to complicate things, we've
got three kids that squeeze anyplace in
between,
We had problems at first about cooking, It
►vas11'1 alai Illy wife wasn't a good cook, but
just that she had been taught 10 cook things in
her family a little differently (han I had been
used loin my family. My mother, for instance,
believed in cooking roast beef until there
wasn't any sign of red left in it. My wife's
mother cooked her meal far less, The first
time I visited lily future imlaws and had a slice
of coati( beef with the 1)10od still owing out of
the middle I thought they were going to have
(0 pick ole up off the floor,
My wife converted ole on most things to du
with food, however, Today I can eat beef (hat
is, If not rare, al leas) medium and actually
can prefer it that way, She converted our
family to using brown sugar instead of while
for things like cereal, She regularly uses
whole wheal and brown breads when 0111y
IC'hite appeared on our table back home.
So we've managed to solve our problems in
nearly all areas: except one. AI'Ici' ten years ()I'
marriage we still have not hccn able Io

BEEPERS MEAN. SPEED — Blyth Fireman received their beepers - signal radio -
this week. These radios transmit a beep for a radius of 15 miles from Blythe This
enables the volunteer firemen to be at the fire in less time. It was found that many
of the volunteer firemen work out of the village and there was a need for more to
attend the fires. Here Don Noble holds a "Beeper" At the time of the call for the
Snell silo fire Thursday, Don was in Auburn, received his call and beat the fire truck
to the scene of the fire in Westfield. There is a button on the radio which transmits
the locations of the fire from the head office in Blyth. (Standard Photo)

ZERO TILLAGE — This concept of cultivation
involves seeding directly into the previous year's
stubble, thereby eliminating summerfallowing. With
proper management, it increases grain yields,
reduces erosion, and improves soil friability and
fertility. By reducing spring cultivation, this tech-
nique can also greatly improve the nesting success
of ducks which choose to nest in stubble fields.

Watch for high blood pressure
April 1978 has been declared "World High Blood Pressure
Month" by the World Health Organization, in co-operation with
the International Society and Federation of 'Cardiology. The
theme for this international project is a fitting one --"Down With
High Blood Pressure",
Nearly 2 million Canadians have high blood pressure half of
them don't know it and many of them will risk premature death
and disability unless their blood pressure is reduced. Of those
who know they have high blood pressure, only half have it
treated and, of the latter, only a small percentage co-operate
with their doctors in , the long-term control of their condition,
Our educational objectives for the month is to A: Alert the
public to the fact that there are no symptoms which accompany
High Blood Pressure --have your Blood Pressure checked to be
sure. B: If you have High Blood Pressure treat it...and live.
From your past co-operation, we know we can count on you to
get these educational messages to the people of Ontario,
Thanking you in advance for your assistance, I remain,
Yours very truly,

Wants parents
to speak up
During the news coverage of the Huron County Secondary
School Teacher's Strike, we have heard from three parties
involved: the Secondary Teachers; the Huron County Board of
Education; the Pupils.
I feel that it's about time that the largest, and most silent
group spoke up i.e. the parents. After all, we foot the bills of
school upkeep, teachers' salaries, Board Members salaries and
expenses, as well as our children's expenses due to educating
them.
As a tax -payer, I can appreciate the Board's anxiety to "cut
costs" (after all, they want to be elected next election). However,)
there may be other ways to "cut costs" besides just the ones at
stake in this strike.
As an elementary teacher I can equally identify with the
teachers' concern of being stripped of those benefits which they
had fought so hard to attain, at the expense of lower salaries
when compared to other counties.
As a parent, 1 agonize over the havoc being done to all the
students (not just grades 12 and 13) who are having their
education interrupted by the strike. As a parent, who is also a
teacher, I don't swallow the propoganda that children can miss
day after day of school and not be harmed. Every school day is
precious and education missed on that day is important!
Again, as a parent, I am horrified that teachers, our children's
examples during their formative years, can in all good
conscience, with -hold education as a weapon. However, I am
disgusted with the arrogant "We'll show whose boss" attitude
of the Board, May 1 interject at this point, that we the tax -payers,
are the real boss. Surely two groups of supposedly intelligent,
educated people, can settle differences without sacrificing
children in the process!
I would urge all tax -payers in Huron County to voice by letter
to the parties involved, their displeasure at the way this entire
affair has been handled (or may I suggest mis-handled).
If it were possible perhaps Parent Power could make itself
known by taking legal action in the following ways: if teachers
physically abuse children, they can have legal action taken
against them.. They have emotionally abused the students of
Huron County, It's too bad parents can't take legal action about
that; when people in High office mishandled' public funds they
can be sued, or removed from office. Could parents take legal
action against a Board who has jeopardized our children's
education, for which we have paid good money?; perhaps the
parents who have gone to extra expense to send their children
out of Huron County for the duration of the strike, could send the
bills to the Board of Education and The (Secondary School
Teachers' Federation,
As a parent I am SICK, SICK, SICK, of hearing the reasons for
the strike, lockout, etc., by ,two groups of people who backed
themselves into a corner and won't budge. 1 beg both sides to
forget about "losing face" and come to a compromise.ilf you do,
you will regain the respect of both parents and students. If you
do not, you have lost a great opportunity to undo all the damage
that has been done during this strike. Parents are angry;
students are dissolusioned; teacher/board relations are bitter.
Do you really want this to go on? I hope not!

The 1978 levy from the
Separate School Board of $564
was ordered paid.
A resolution from St. Joseph's
Catholic Women's League,
Kingsbridge was supported by
council, The league called for the
council to voice cornplaints
against pornography being taught
in schools. There are 250 books
available for instructors to choose
from, commented the CWL.
The Blyth Centre for the Arts
has asked council to apply for
Wintario and Community Centre
grants for the Centre. Council
was concerned ',that if the first
stage of the theatre improve-
ments were finished and no funds
had come through that council
would be responsible for any
debts incurred. Funds are not
' payable until the project is
finished, Council voted to apply
for the grants on the condition
that the Centre for the Arts
arrange finances themselves.
Council supported a resolution
from Turnberry Township which
calls for support for the Board of
Education on their actions in the
strike situation in the counties
high schools.
The Blyth Horticultural Society
issued a thank -you for the $400
grant received from the village for
their work in the town gardens.
Council received no formal
objections to the closing of Wilson
Street, Council conveyed the land
to the province for the building of
a proposed sewage pumping
station.
Councillor Howson said one
citizen was concerned ab. out
whether the land would later be
opened up for a road. It was his
worry that his lots behind the land
in question would be disturbed.
He has access to- his lots from
another route.
Council knew of no future time
when a road would be required
and because of the necessity of a
bridge if a road were to come
about, the cost of the bridge alone
would be a deterrent.
A special meeting March 17
approved building permits for
Tom Cronin for a home and
storage shed (20 x 28) on two lots,
and Bruce Falconer Construction
for a home on Lot 7, County Road

Lack of information concerns Threshers
By Rhea Hamilton
Owners of steam engines and
boilers are in the dark as to what
the safety standards are for their
machines and what methods they
are to follow in order to keep their
engines in safe condition.
Concern at the lack of
information from government
departments voiced at the annual
meeting of the Huron Pioneers
and Threshers Reunion in Blyth
Saturday.
Sixty members attended the
meeting in the Memorial Hall, to
review business and to find out
lvhat problems members are
having.
While there is a service
available that x-rays boilers to
check for obstructions and holes
in the tubes and to show where
stress is undue on either side of
the sears. Assistant secretary
treasurer, Ken Innes, pointed out
that everyone is in the dark about
safety standards.
Len Jacobs said that through
his associations with other clubs
he found that many are trying to
get standards clarified but have
been given the run ,wound.
The matter was referred to the
executive committee which will
meet May 6.
The treasurer's report noted
that there was a deficit last year
of $432. The poor weather kept
gate receipts down and the high
cost Of transporting the equip-
ment ate up more funds than in
previous years.
Planned I'or the 1978 Thresher's
Reunion are increases in gate fees
t() $2 from $1.50.
Banquet tickets will be on sale
at the time of registration this
year.
The members agreed to have
craft displays in the arena again
The booths are given an allotted
amount of space and no fee is
charged but a donation is
requested.

ADAM BRUNSKILL
By Thomas Armstrong
Adam Brunskill had, on the
death of his ,father, returned to
Yorkshire to the little town of
Winterings. The fells about the
town were a warren of small lead
mines. Two concerns worked the
area and rivalry had arisen
between the Nattrasses (cousins
to Adam on his mother's side)
and Titus Alderson, an uncle of
Cherry Dinsdale in whom Adam
had become very interested.
Sides are taken in the community
and the climax --a fight --takes
place on Adam's wedding day.

for different climates. In the back
of the book is also a "Plant

that arranged plants according to
their usefulness, blooming time,

THE IMPOSSIBLE JOURNEY OF
SIR ERNEST SHACKLETON
By W. Bixby
After years of careful prepar-
ation, Shackleton with a carefully
picked crew and a stout well-
fitted ship,the Endurance,
headed for the Antar ctic. At that
time there was 'no radio, the
World was engaged, in the First
World War, and the Endurance
became hopelessly jammed in ice
and eventually sunk. As there
was no way to alert anyone of
their predicament, the crew, in
three tiny boats, attempted to
cross the Antarctic Sea toward
survival. This is a adventure at its
best, a true account of a heroic
journey.

A bout 30 Huron County
residents took their oath of
Canadian citizenship at a Citizen-
ship Court held alst Wednesday
afternoon in the Goderich Court
House Chambers.
Among those receiving a certi-
ficate of Canadian citizenship
Nvere Goderich town councillor
Stan Profit and his wife Frances,
They came to Canada from
Edinburgh, Sdatland in 1960. As
a British subject, Profit was
dlowed to run for town council.
Profit said it wasn't a matter of if
ix would become a Canadian
citizen but rather a matter of
when.
The citizenship ceremony was a
moving one as those taking part
accepted the responsibilities of
becoming Canadian citizens as
‘‘ell as the rights and priviliges.
Her honour Judge Elaine
Tensa, new citizenship judge at
the Court of Canadian Citizenship
in London, presided for the
ceremony. She replaces retiring
Judge Campbell Calder, citizen-
ship judge for the last 14 years.
Judge Pensa told the new
Canadian citizens that a county
and its citiznes are one. The.
county depends on the strength
and character of its people.
FPllowing the ceremony, the
new citizens were invited to a
reception hosted by the Maple
Leaf Chapter of the LO.D.E. at
St. George's Parish Hall, The
chapter has been hosting such
receptions since 1945.
In order to become a Canadian
dtizen one must be at least 18
years of age and have been a
resident of Canada three out of
the four years prior to applying
for citizenship. This residency
requirement was just recently
lowered from five years. Citizen-
ship oaths can be taken in French
a. English.

County counc!I asked
To support banquet
Wingham town councillor Allan
Harrison and Bob Gibson of the
Huron County plowing match
committee visited county council
Friday to explain the need for
county support at the plowmen's
banquet to be held September 29.
They said 2,200 tickets are out for
the banquet which has' a budget
of $16,000. The matter was
referred to the development
committee for further study.
The delegation were requesting
that Huron County municipalities
respond by supplying some part
of the dinner. For instance, Reeve
Bill Elston of Morris Township
said a "good Morris apple" will
be at the plate of each guest at the
banquet.
It was explained that to date,
most of the Huron expenses for
the International Plowing Match
which is set for Huron this year,
have been borne by the town of
Fire
(Continued from Page 1)
"The silo itself is okay"
reported Ron Snell" "There has
not been enough heat to damage
it". "We had a fellow from Gorrie
who took pictures of the other silo
and these will measure any.heat
radiation and let us know if the
other silo beside the first is
headed for the same fire problem.
"It's my guess that there is
about 100 ton of corn pyramided
in the centre of the silo", he said,
"But with all the smoke and
steam there is no way for anyone
to tell what's going on inside."
He ' was not prepared to say
what the cost of the damage
would be,
Saturday the Blyth Fire
Department was called again and
worked from 5 p.m. to 12:30 a.ni.
in an effort to bring the fire again
under control
The Snell Company is going to
try again this week to take some
more corn out but until the fire
has abated there is little hope of
emptying the silo.
Londesboro paper drive pickup

early. Small bundles please.
Wingham and the townships of
Morris and Turnberry.
"Some of these epxenses will
be of benefit in later years,"
admitted Reeve Elston. "Some
won't be.
He went on to say that Huron
County is the name heard most
often in connection with the 1978
IMP, with Wingham, Morris and
Turnberry also getting exposure.
But, according to Reeve Elston,
the whole county will benefit,
especially the towns who will
probably have more visitors than
ever during the week of the
plowing match.
Mr. Gibson said the Huron
delegation has no control over the
number of people invited to the
banquet. The Ontario Plowmen's
Assocaition' contributes half the
budget for the dinner.
According to Mr. Gibson, it is
hoped much of the expense will
be recovered in gate receipts to
the plowing match - but
everything depends on the
weather. In Bruce County where
the weather was excellent, the
financial results were "great". In
Frontenac last year where rain
swamped the match, the outcome
was disastrous.
The Huron banquet committee
is still attempting to get a caterer
for the banquet. Four caterers
were invited to put in a bid on the.
banquet, but only two were
interested. The caterer who
handled the Bruce banquet, says
he isn't about to get involved
because he didn't make any
money at -the last one he catered.

H & N opens
new building
Jack and Lorraine Nelemans,
owners of H and N Dairy
Systems, are no strangers to the
Walton area. Although their
business headquarters building is
new, the couple and their family
have lived in Walton since 1974.
Bui last year the couple bought
two arcs next to .their home near
the Highway 12 intersection and
built a new 3200 square foot
building. Before then H and N
Dairy Systems had been housed
in rented quarters in the old
Cousin'sk reamery in Brussels.
"It's closer to home," Mr.
Nelemans said, and besides the
Brussels building needed a lot of
work.
Jack Nelemans has a great deal
of dairy experience. He was born
in Holland and raised on a dairy
fram at R.R.3 Listowel. In 1962 he
started working for Jamesway
Farm Equipment in Preston.
When Jamesway discountinucd
milking machines in 1975. Mr.
Nelemans started H and N in
Brussels;
H and N is the Ontario
H&N
distributor for Universal milking
systems and sells through other
dealers as well as retailing
Universal products locally. The
company stresses service, Mr.
Nelemans says, "24 hours a day,
seven days a week."
The new building houses
$100,000 inventory in parts and
equipment "so that the customer
doesn't have to wait." Mr. Nele-
mans says. H and N will design a
whole dairy operation for the
farmer.
Mrs. Nelemans, a native of
Preston, is the firm's bookkeeper.
In addition H and N employs a
service man, two installers and
one man on a supply truck who''s
on the road all the time and takes
a different route every day.
Mr, N elemans is president of
the Walton Area Sports Club. The
couple has two children Christine,

MUD DOESN'T ADHERE — Fireman Bill Burkholder (shown) and Bev. Bromley
were sealing off the air to a bottom door of a silo, which was on fire, Thursday.
Snells Seed and Supply Limited in Westfield, north of Blyth, had a corn silo fire this
week. Air coming in from the bottom, kept the fire going so the Blyth fire
department packed mud around the doors to seal the silo. As of press time the silo
was still in danger of being on fire but due to smoke and steam no one was able to
see inside to assess the situation. (Standard Photo)

16 — THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 5, 1978
Born too soon?
There arc times when 1 am convinced that 1
was born 30 years loo soon. One of them
occurs when 1 sec the wonderful opportunities
for travel that young people have today. They
make me pcagrcen with envy.
When you and 1 were young, Maggie, most
of us didn't get much farther than the next
town. A minority visited the city occasionally,
and it was considered a big deal. And a whale
of a lot of people never did get to sec a big city
in their entire lives. And were no worse off for
it, of course,
Man, how that has changed. Nowadays,
young people go galloping off to the four
corners of the earth with no more thought
about it than we'd have given to a weekend in
the city. 'They're so blase about it that it's
sickening to an old guy like nie, who has
always yearned to travel, and never had the
time or nioncy or freedom to do it.
In my day, during the Depression, the only
people wlio could afford to travel were the
hoboes. They could afford it because they
didn't have any money. They rode free on the
tops and inside the box -cars of freight trains.
And they didn't . have any responsibilities
except the next meal and a place to sleep.
Looking back, I was one of the lucky ones.
Most of my generation of youth was forced by
circumstances to stay home, get any job
available, and hang on to it like grins death,
never venturing forth on the highroads of life.
I was the envy of niy class -mates, when, at
seventeen, i nabbed a job on the upper lake
boats, and could come home bragging of
having been to such bizarre, exotic places as
Duluth, Sault Ste. Marie, Detroit, the
Lakehead.
Today's youngsters would sneer at such
bourgeois travels. They exchange anecdotes
about Morocco and Moscow, Athens and
Australia, Paris and Port-au-Prince, Delhi and
Dubrovnik. 'Fair nauseates me, it docs.
By the, time he was 22, my own son had
lived on both coasts of Canada, been to
Mexico, New Orleans, Texas, Israel, Ireland,
and a hundred other places that are just
naives in an atlas to Inc. Right now he's in
Paraguay, South America, and has visited
Argentina and Bolivia. He speaks four
languages. I speak one, not too well.
My nephews have seen More countries than
Chris Columbus or Sir Francis Drake. One's
an airline pilot, and knows Europe, North
America and the West Indies the way i know
my way to school. Another has worked in the
Canadian north, Quebec, the Congo, .Ianiaica,
and is now living in Costa Rica,
My nieces arc just as peripatetic. They've
been, s among them, to the West Coast,
France, England, Russia. A four-day trip to
New York, for them, is scarcely worth
mentioning. Migawd, 1'd have given my left
eyeball to see New York when 1 was their age!
1 thought it was pretty earth -shaking the first
time I saw Toronto. Toronto, ye -cc -ch!
Thousands of university students annually
take a year off, borrow some money, sluff a
packsack and head out for a year of bumming
around Europe, the Mediterranean, North
Africa, India, Rotten kids!.
in the last decade, the travel bug has spilled
over into the high schools, Sonie of them are
beginning to sound like agencies, with
frequent announcements over the P.A.
system:
"Will the group going to Ronk in the winter
break please assemble in Room 202 at 3:30 for
a lesson in tying your toga."
"All those taking the Venezuela trip arc
requested to sec Mr. Vagabond in roo111 727 al
3:15 today."
"Those who arc involved in the spring
break;.t;rip to the Canary Islands should have
their passports by March 1st."
"'There will be a meeting today in Room
Quatorze for all students going to the Quebec
Winter Carnival. No separatists; please."
"An urgent meeting will be held to day for
those who plan to take the London -Paris trip
during spring break. All scats are now filled.
If enough are interested, we'll hire another
plane."
It fairly makes your head swin, especially
when your own idea of a trip south is 100 miles
to the city for a weekend, a trip west means a
visit to great-grandad, and a trip cast means
you're going to a funeral or a wedding among
the relatives.
Next thing you know, this travel binge will
bulge over into the elementary schools, and
great 747 -loads of little shavers from Grade
Eight will be descending on the unsuspecting
residents of Hong Kong and Rio de Janeiro.
Lord help them. The residents, not the kids,
Perhpas this sounds like sour grapes. Well,
it is. As Shaw said: "The trouble with youth is
that it is wasted on the young," And as Smiley
says: "The trouble with travel is that it is
wasted on kids who don't know a Grecian urn
from an Italian pizza,"
Oh, it's not that 1 haven't travelled. I've
been to Great Britain. And spent two years
staggering around in the blackout or wading
through the torrential rains of bonnie
Scotland. I've been to France. Slept five
weeks in a tent in an orchard in Normandy.
Been to Belgium. Antwerp; buzbonibs.
Know Holland well. Spent two weeks locked in
a box -car in a railway siding at Utrecht. Am
intimately acquainted with Germany. Was
bombed in Braunsweig and Leipzig, and spent
a delightful six months in salubrious
Pomerania, as a guest of the Third Reich.
Oh, I've been around alright. But
somehow it wasn't quite the same, Rattling
through Deutschland on a train with a 10 -day
stubble of beard. on your chin and a tagend of
sour black bread stuffed into your battledress
blouse is not quite similar to climbing aboard
a 747 with your tote -bag and waiting for the
stewardess to bring your first meal,
Would 1 trade? Not on your life.
Morris criticizes F of A
A lengthy discussion ovci'r the
value of marketing boards, the
quota system and the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture (OFA)
as a farm organization took up
much of Monday's Morris Council
meeting when representatives of
the Huron Federation of Agri-
culture asked for donation for
their organization.
Merele Gunby, vice-president
of the Huron County Federation
Bill Pullen, president of the
Federation of Morris Township
and John Nesbitt talked to

Mr. Gunby said that there were
roughly 23,000 members in the
OFA with approximately 2,000
members in Huron County. John
Nespitt told council there were
somewhere around 150 members
in Morris Township.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, APRIL 5, 1978 - 19
Noise numbs the mind
By Earl K. St. Jean
Auburn
In 1941 in midwinter forty miles
north of Ottawa. I spent evening
and early night on a double sleigh
hauling supplies from one town to
a tiny hamlet six miles to the
north, It was one of those clear,
moonlit nights, crisp, silent, the
skies twinkling with a million
stars or more, As a young person
I was interested in the mind-
boggling concepts that Sir James
Jeans and others had
poplularaized, Here, I was seeing
suns of other galaxies perhaps,
gazing on nebulae, new and old
suns, planets, satellites, com cts
and many other wonders of the
universe. The snow crunches
beneath the sleigh, the horses
breathed bellowing clouds like
dragons.,
Our conversation was about
pioneer days. The war had called
forth a measure of patriotism
most doubted there because this
part of Quebec was a strange
mixture of Irish, Scot, English,
French, German, Pole and•other
European n ationalities. Canadian
ancestory was rare, There wer
tales of the hardship of most
families who came after the First
World War. Hard work and frugal
ways had made ` many of them
prosperous beyond whatever

be shot or whether a notice should
be put in the paper.
Council received a letter from
the Huron County Housing Au th-
ority asking them their views.
County-wideresidency for senior
citizens housing. Council decided
that they are happy with the
arrangements they had with
Brussels and Grey and wished
things to remain the way they are.
now.
Council received word that they
,would get $52,000 for tile draini-
age loans. They decided to give
$25 to the Cancer Society. They
supported a resolution of Turn -
berry Township to support the
Huron County Board of Education
in their actions in the teacher's
strike. It was decided that the
District Returning Officers should
get $35, the pollsters should get
$30 and each house used should
get $35 for when Morris holds' it
liquor vote on April 10.
Council passed a by-law on the
Martens Bridge, Lots 10 and 11,
Concession 6 which is to have a
weight restriction of 5 ton and a
by-law on the Blind Lind Bridge,
Lots 20-21, Concession 2 which is
to have a 10 ton limit.
their beginnings would warrant.
This seemed hardly to compare
with the realization that we were
hurtling through space in various
ways all at once, We were moving
with the speed of the horses, the
speed of the "th on its axis, the
speed of the earth in orbit and the
speed of our galaxy as it drifts in
space. The moon up there just
tagged along for the ride. It was a
night when we could be in perfect
awe of the fact we were human
beings, perfectly conscious of the
nature, if not of the purpose, of
the universe we live in. If this is
the majesty of our universe how is
it the sheer noise that surrounds
us during the day makes our
minds grow numb? How do l
deserve such a universe? Why
me? Why you?
Daytime blotted out the
reverie. Radio, newspapers and
letters reminded us only too well
that Canada was at war. Men were
in the army, navy, airforce. Some
were to reach Spitzbergen and
DID YOU KNOW?
others Hong Kong.
This very mixed community
was as conscious of the country's
peril as any in Canada; News soon
announced bliltz after bliltz. Tens
of millions would eventually
sacrifice their lives or be
sacrificed as death rained down
from the skies. Even then one had
to ask why would so many pay the
price for .freedom and peace?
Why would those who eventually
survive measure the price paid.
Plainly, how can we? Who is
1irorthy of such a price? Why me?
Again we must shift scene.
The war is over and peace is
restored. Tens of millions died for
whatever we call "peace", Trials
and executions are followed by a
return to business as usual.
Europe rebuilds and ruins are
removed as rubble, Prosperity is
seen as the virtue of peace.
.Gradually prosperity is built into
affluence throughout the West.
Wars occur but are gingerly
contained .Uneasiness sweeps

over society, Human rights in
many forms becomes a common
cry, Tensions and confrontations
increase and inflation causes
stress and strain on the st rongest
economies, Thewelfare state
attains goals hardly dreamed of in
ideal utopias yet, man is restless,
moody, miserable if not utterly
unhappy. And still, why me?
Take me back to that silent
night on a crisp winter evening,
on a loaded sleigh, horses
breathing fire like dragons,
crunching snow, twinkling stars,
bright moonlight with every
sound carried on the hushed
breath of night. Let unab ated
awe sweep over me; a celebration
of a universe of wonderment that
tantalizes the mind, of silence
that spurs me to refresh my soul,
of sheer glimmering whiteness
which defies description and of
sheer unhurried love of life. Spare
me the din and clamour that
numbs the mind in a mad, noisy,
cushing world, Grant me ever' a
moment's escape to the, silence of
night even if it brings me back to
that unanswered question. Why
me?

Sun
Matey Blyth residents are pro-
bably wondering why so many
vehicles were parked at the
United Church every day last
week. On Monday and Tuesday,
the ladies were out in full force to
wend their needles in and out to
put a pretty pattern on another
quilt. Another group of ladies met
for their usual Prayer and Bible
Sttio 00 Tuesday morning. Some
of these ladies conn quite a
distance each week to be a part of
this group that includes several
denominations. The. boys of the
Tyro group mel that evening.
Several sten of the congregat-
ion turned out Wednesday morn-
ing to put together their time and
talents, and materials provided
by the C'.G.1,'f. and U.C.W., to
finish 2 more Sunday School
classrooms, The walls were all
strapped, then panelled, and each
room now has adequate supply
cupboards. The children as well
as adults truly appreciate this
under -taking and express sincere
thanks to the groups who funded
the project and all the volunteer
labourers who gave 2 and 3 day,
each, The "Quitters" supplied
funds for materials to finish two
other rooms earlier this year,

Londesboro Church has birthday
Londesborough United Church
kicked off their year long
celebration of the 100th Anni-
versary of their Manse on
Tuesday, March 28th. Special
guests for the dinner party were
the members of the Huron -Perth
Presbytery Executive. Dinner was
served by members of the Manse
Committee and Rev, John
Oestricher, chairman 'of Huron -
Perth Presbytery and Mr. Elwood
Mitchell, chairman of the Manse
Committee officially cut the large
birthday cake in honour of the
100th birthday and to open the
years celebration.
The actual land for the building
of the Manse was purchased on
February 12, 1878 for the sum of
two hundred and eighty-six
dollars. The one-half acre of land
purchased at that time consisted
of lot 23 of the Haggard survey.
Names listed on the original deed
were James Manning, Simon
McVittie, Th omas Moon, James
Braithwa' ,ite, Anthony Cocker -
line, Raphael Stephenson, Robert
Newton Adams, Janes Stanley,
Edward Turner , John Crich and
Sidney Johns,
"The Parsonage" as it was
always called, remains primarily
the same throughout the years,
with the exception of modern
conveniences installed. The
large, white brick, ten roomed
home, is situated on a well treed
lot, the trees having been planted
in the year 1888, The
French -doors leading from the
living room and dining room onto
a large open verandah were
replaced by large windows, it is
thought around the turn of the
century. The second large
'verandah at the front of the house
was replaced by a sunporch in
later years.

Keep cooling system in working order
Maintenance of three
areas most important
Some cars or components,
when they fail, cause the
engine to stop at once. The
ignition system is a good
example. Others, like the
braking system, create haz-
ardous situations. And elec-
trical trouble, at best, is in-
convenient when the car
won't start.
Failure in other areas,
such as the engine lubrica-
tion or cooling systems, can
be destructive. These are the
main safeguards of the en-
gine. Without oil or coolant
the engine can seize up, with
possibly major damage as a
result.
The latter system is rela-
tively easy to understand
and check, says the Auto-
motive Cooling System In-
stitute. In addition to the
anti-freeze/coolant, you'll be
concerned with the condi-
tion of belts, hoses and
clamps, thermostat, pressure
cap and radiator.
Main components
These are the main com-
ponents involved in a cool-
ing system tune-up. They
should be checked as follows:
1. BELTS. They drive the
fan and water pump as well
as other engine accessories.
Look for frayed, glazed or
cracked belt surfaces that
might cause the belt to slip
or break. If you find one
belt worn, look closely at
the others. They're prob-
ably ready for replacement
too.
If the belts look okay,
check the tension. A belt
should deflect no more than
a half-inch to an inch when
depressed half way between
the pulleys.
2. HOSES. Squeeze then
hard to be sure they arc not
getting. brittle, mushy or
otherwise deteriorated. Do
this when the engine is cold;
your test might cause a bad
hose to let go, with resultant
hot anti -freeze all over you.
A hose of dubious condi-
tion should be scrapped, and,
as with belts, the failure of
one hose may indicate the
imminent failure of others.
Replace any that look mar-
ginal, to prevent the possi-
bility of expensive and in-
convenient failure.
Most mechanics replace
the clamps when installing
new hose. It's a wise invest-
ment whether you are a do-
it-yourselfer or have it done.
3. THERMOSTAT, A
sticking thermostat will
cause too hot or too cold
engine operations. You will
recognize this by the obvious
signs of engine overheating
or by little or no heat from
the heater. In either case, a
new thermostat is needed.
When in doubt, have your
mechanic check it for you.
Finally, when you are sure
everything is tight and leak
proof, you come to the final
step in your cooling system
tune-up: flushing the system
and installing new anti-
freeze/coolant. If it has been
a year or more since you
When checking radiator hoses, be certain the engine is cool. Should a hose be so dete-
riorated that it breaks, you're apt to get an unwanted bath of scalding radiator coolant.
Checking hoses is just one step to take when making sure system is okay, says the Auto-
motive Cooling System Institute.

The main difference between electronic ignition systems
and their predecessors is the elimination of the breaker
points in favor' of a "wheel," which directs voltage to the
spark plugs. Here, a service technician tests the distributor
on an American Motors engine. This innovation in spark
ignition, however, contrary to what many motorists believe,
is not maintenance -free. Periodic care and checking of this
system remains as important as it was on breaker point
systems.
Electronic ignition still
requires periodic tune-up
Electronic ignition sys-
tems standard equipment on
most late model cars, were
designed to help keep emis-
sions low. But they still re-
quire periodic maintenance,
according to Champion
Spark Plug Company.
Largely due to require-
ments stemming from emis-
sions control, the car makers
began using the electronic
ignition systems to provide
more voltage to fire a wider -
gapped spark plug.
The new systems elimi-
• nate breaker points and con-
densers and replace them
with magnetic components
that trigger the system' for
secondary voltage: However,
many of the components of
the electronic system arc the
same as in conventional igni-
tions and maintenance re-
quirements are not too dis-
similar, Champion says.
The condition of the coil,
distributor cap and rotor
must still be checked. Cor-
rect timing is critical to prop-
er operation. Spark plugs
are still subject to fouling
from contamincnt present in
the combustion process such
as carbon, calcium, barium,
etc. And ignition wiring can
still deteriorate or suffer
damage, causing misfire.
Therefore, an annual ig-
nition system service is still
recommended by Champion,
electronic system or not.

Facts on fuel economy
In a nationwide fuel econ-
omylest program, cars ad-
judged to be in need of
tune-up were tuned to man-
ufacturers' specifications.
The average post tune-up
improvement in fuel econ-
omy was 11,36 per cent.
On this basis . a car in
need of tune-up and travel-
ing 200 miles per week will
consume $7,22 worth of gas
(based on averaging 18 miles
per gallon and gasoline sell-
ing at 650 per gallon),
To compare before and
after tune-up consumption:
BEFORE tune-up usage:
11,1 gallons per week (based
on 18 m.p.g.) — Weekly
cost, $7.22.
AFTER tune-up usage:
9,8 gallons per week (based
on 20,5 m.p.g.) — Weekly
cost, $6,37 or an annual
savings of $44.20.
In terms of distance trav-
eled, a car with an engine
in good tune can drive 63
miles farther a week on the
same amount of gasoline.
(Based on the use of one
18 gallon tankful per week.)
Over the course of a year,
a car with engine in tune
could travel 3,276 more
miles on the same amount
of fuel. (Based on using an
18 gallon tankful of gas per
week.) That's nearly the
distance between Seattle,
Wash, and Miami, Fla.

Anti -emissions equipment now improved
Tampering with devices hurts performance,
cuts fuel economy, increases pollution
at the same time:
• A clogged air cleaner
not only reduces fuel econ-
omy because the engine can't
get enough air to maintain
a proper air -fuel ratio, but
the output of carbon monox-
ide also is greatly increased.
• Misfiring caused by
faulty spark plugs or distrib-
utor points hurts perform -
There's a lot designed into
today's automobile engines
that make them the cleanest
ever on the road, But it takes
some work on the part of
the owner to keep them that
way,
The automobile engine
provides motorists with a
good combination of per-
formance, economy and low
emissions, says the Motor
Vehicle Manufacturers As-
sociation of the United
States, Inc.
"If you attempt to change
any one of those functions,
it will be done at the detri-
ment of at least one and
possibly the other two," says
Harry B. Weaver, manager
of the Environmental Activi-
ties Department for MVM A.
Most of the people who
tamper with the engine or
emission controls are at-
tempting to get better per-
formance, more "guts and
go." Motorists may get the
performance boost, but they
will pay the penalty of poor-
er fuel economy and possibly
an upsurge in pollutants
coming from the tailpipe,
Weaver says,
Controls work
But there really is no need
to tamper with the anti -pol-
lution equipment because to-
day's pollution controls
work, they do not hurt per-
formance and they do not
hurt fuel economy. In fact,
thelatest emission equip-
ment has enabled automo-
tive engineers to improve
fuel economy.
"Drivers of late -model
cars could not be more
wrong if they think that a
few simple adjustments to
today's emission control
equipment can increase their
car's performance and fuel
economy," Weaver says.
"The best advice is to follow
the service manual and keep
the car in good running or-
der to maintain peak fuel
economy, high performance
and low emissions."
Regular inspection and
maintenance of a car's pol-
lution controls improve gas
mileage, produce better car
performance and help meet
clean air standards. The cost
to the car owner is recovered
in great part through im-
proved fuel economy.
Motorists who think that
tinkering .with the engine of
their late -model automobile
will improve their perfolrm-
ance probably remember the
early days of anti -pollution
equipment, basically adjust-
ment modifications to the
engine.
Catalytic converter
The advent of the cata-
lytic converter on most auto-
mobiles built since the start
of the 1975 -model year a
technological revolution —
enabled automotive engi-
neers to retune engines to
achieve that good combina-
tion of fuel economy, per-
formance and clean air,
The catalytic converter
actually is a small chemical
factory, taking hot exhaust
gases, hydrocarbons and car-
bon monoxide, and passing
them through and around
platinum and palladium to
change noxious gases into
carbon dioxide and water.
Ong of the developments
being tested today is the
three-way catalytic converter
which also helps control
emissions of oxides of nitro-
gen.
Equipment in use today
has allowed automakers to
reduce the amount of hydro-
carbons from today's auto-
mobiles by 89 per cent from
uncontrolled models of 1960
vintage, Carbon' monoxide
emissions have been cut by
82 per cent and nitrogen
oxides by 51 per cent. Fu-
ture developments promise
even greater reductions.
Tune-up best test
"Servicing today's modern
anti -pollution equipment is
best left to an experienced
mechanic," Weaver says.
"The emission controls on
the newest cars are highly
complex systems that require
adjustment by competent
mechanics since they are
built into the engines them-
selves. For an amateur to
fool with them would be
folly."
The tune-up is the best
assurance motorists can have
that their cars are nursing
the most miles possible out
of a gallon of gasoline, are
operating at the highest per-
formance level and emitting
the fewest pollutants.
Tests have shown that
owners who maintain their
cars for the best fuel econ-
omy also are the ones driving
the least -polluting or "clean-
est" automobiles,
Motorists won't be able to
service most of the anti-
pollution equipment them-
selves but mechanics, in the
course of a tune-up, will
make sure that the car is
both fuel efficient and non-
polluting,

ance, can cause the catalytic
converter to overheat, cuts
into fuel economy and lets

• Faulty timing not only
makes a car sluggish or hard

tants in the exhaust.
• A delay in changing

of the engine. A well -run-
ning engine will last longer
and operate at its best for
a longer period.
"Keeping your car in good

sense," says MVMA's Wea-
ver. "It's also worth dollars
and cents in your pocket."

Tires on job full
time in spring,
Proper inflation is key
ingredient of tire care
While you're taking va-
cations and weekend trips
for relaxation this spring
and summer, your tires are
working full time. To do
their job effectively, they
need proper care.
The most important part
of tire care is air and the
best part about air is it's
free, points out The Fire-
stone Tire & Rubber Com-
pany.
Even though air is free,
a surprising number of mo-
torists neglect their tires
when it comes to inflation.
For example, consider the
experience of a • Cleveland,
Ohio, television newsman
who made a recent tire
pressure survey of eight cars
— of the 32 tires checked,
only one had the correct air
pressure.
Pay attention to air
The point is, more people
should pay more attention
to the air pressure in their
tires on long trips, short
trips or any trip.
Too much air — over-
inflation — and too little —
underinflation mean the
tire is not carrying its load
properly. Both conditions
can cause uneven tire wear.
Underinflation is likely to
shorten the life of the tire.
Underinflated tires also
waste fuel because they put
needless drag on the engine.
How much fuel? Up to one
gallon out of 20 gallons of
gasoline, according to Fire-
stone,
Long trips increase the
possibility of underinflation
because of the added weight
of luggage and people. This
additional weight combined
with sustained high-speed
turnpike and- interstate
driving means more air is
needed,
Increase air pressure
Before leaving on this
type of trip, increase the
air pressure four pounds
over the car manufacturer's
recommended cold tire pres-
sure, but not over the maxi-
mum inflation limit shown
on the tire's sidewall.
Make your inflation
checks before starting out
because tires give higher
inflation readings after they
have been run a few miles.
Never bleed air from hot
tires because this increase in
pressure is normal. Recom-
mended "cold" inflation
levels take this increase into
account.
Wheel balance and align-
ment also should be checked
before a long trip. Both
affect tire wear.
Finally, don't forget to
check the air in the spare.

TIRE SAVINGS — Although the tire on the right looks
almost identical to its neighbor, the tire may wear only half
as long because; at 16 pounds pressure, it is underinflated
by 33 per cent. \Vhen radial tires were first introduced on
American automobiles, ear owners were told that the bulg.
ing sidewall is a built-in characteristic of the tire. Now that
the bulge has become so familiar, motorists may be "check-
ing" radial tires by sight instead of with a gauge and run-
ning on underinflated tires that will wear Out faster and

STAGES OF INFLATION --
The cross-section upper left
shows underinflation which
causes extreme tire flexing
and builds up excessive heat,
running the risk of failure.
It also causes rapid wear on,
the outer edges of the tread.
Overinflation (upper right)
causes tires to run hard and
subjects them to impact dam-
age and weakening of the
carcass. It also causes exces-
sive wear in the center of the
tread. Proper inflation (low-

profile for full contact with
the road.
Europeans neglect cars, too
Surest signs �f growing
affluence in Western Europe
can be detected from results
of fuel economy and emis-
sions tests recently com-
pleted in six nations,
Only a generation ago,
car ownership in Europe
was still a relative rarity,
and so those who had auto-
mobiles maintained them
carefully. Yet the test pro-
gram conducted by Cham-
pion Spark Plug Company
indicates that car owners in
England, Germany, Italy,
France, Spain and Belgium
are no more faithful to car
care than are Americans,
Approximately 6,000 cars
were tested in Europe, close
to the number Champion
looked at in the United
States in its Mobile Proving
Grounds (M.P,G.) tests. In
some test areas more than
nine cars in every 10 showed
at least one maintenance
defect that affects fuel econ-
omy or emissions. In similar
LOOK!
U.S. tests about 80 per cept,
of the cars showed such
defects.
Other European findings
paralleled American experi-
ence as well. In tests con-
ducted in 27 U.S. cities, cars
judged to be in need of tune-
up averaged an 11.36 per
cent improvement in fuel
economy once they were
tuned. Roughly the same
fuel savings are being aver-
aged by European cars.

How your car is equipped
affects fuel consumption
• You might want to
consider installing a dash -
mounted vacuum gauge cali-
brated in fuel economy
ranges. Such gauges allow
the driver to monitor fuel
use and engine condition
While driving.
• Such' options as air con-
ditioning and - to a lesser
extent - even electrical ac-
cessories such as heaters,
defrosters and radios use
more gasoline. When air
conditioning is not in use
fuel economy improves by
5 to 14% or more. Air con-
ditioning also adds weight
- about 100 pounds -- to
a car, increasing fuel con-
sumption even more because
of the extra weight. If you
have it, use it sparingly.
• An automatic transmis-
sion can be a gas -using op-
tion. Manual transmissions
generally use less gas, par-
ticularly in small cars, al-
though this may not hold
true in situations where fre-
quent shifting is required.
• Power steering also
uses a bit more fuel. .
Some options can help
conserve gasoline:
' • If you want air condi-
tioning, for example, a light
exterior car color combined
with light interior upholstery
will reduce heat build-up
and keep your air condi-
tioner from having to work
so hard. Tinted glass also
helps.
• Fuel injection usually
saves gasoline by more uni-
formly and efficiently dis-
tributing the fuel than do
carburetors.
• Top quality radial tires.
usually will result in a 5 to
10% fuel saving because
rolling resistance is reduced.
Steel -belted radials gener-
ally are even better than
fabric -belted radials.
• If you'll be doing a
lot of open -road driving, a
cruise control option may
be worthwhile.

'Auto ,log' helps keep you up to date on maintenance
It may never rival the
excitement of the H.M.S.
Bounty's or the U.S.S.
Caine's, but keeping a log
on your car's maintenance
may be the wisest thing
you've done for your trans-
portation needs,
Keeping logs or detailed
records of every shipboard
activity has been a long-
standing tradition on the
sea. And aircraft mainte-
nance logs must be care-
fully kept as an FAA re-
quirement.
But the idea of keeping
a log on car maintenance
is a new idea, prompted by
the facts of motoring life
today. Some reasons to keep
careful records of mainte-
nance performed include:
With extended recom-
mendations for performing
vital maintenance proce-
dures, it's easy to forget to
do them at all. For example,•
some manufacturers recom-
mend changing oil every
7,500 miles, Under former
oil change intervals of 1,000
miles or so, it became a
monthly habit. Now half a
year can go by before an
oil and filter change is in

order. Unless a reminder is
available in the form of a
maintenance log, an owner
is likely to forget the vital
service.
Self-service gasoline sta-
tions also became a factor.
The absence of service per-
sonnel to tell customers of
items like tires with low
pressure, worn windshield
wipers or battery deteriora-
tion makes it important for
the owner to record replace-
ment periods.
With the rise in used car
prices, trading in an old car
can become increasingly lu

crative. Anyone who can
show a well -kept log of
faithful maintenance to a
prospective used car buyer
can expect to get hundreds
of dollars more for the car.
Naturally, any log could
include careful records of
gasoline consumption, in-
cluding how many miles
were traveled on the amount
of gasoline purchased. By
keeping such records one
can instantly notice when
his miles per gallons de-
creases and take necessary
steps to correct the cause.
Maintenance logs can be
as simple as a small spiral
notepad kept in the glove
compartment. Several more

logs are available at auto,

Adventures of driving
kept alive by car clubs
There is a Walter Mitty
in all of us. James Thurber's
retiring character day-
dreamed himself in all sorts
of heroic roles. And so do
most ordinary people as they
imagine swatting a bases -
loaded homer in the World
Series or playing a torrid
movie scene with Robert
Redford.
When it comes to driving,
only a handful can actually
take part in events like the
Indianapolis "500" or the
Grand Prix of Monte Carlo.
But a growing number of
Americans are fulfilling their
urge to compete in events
sponsored by local sports
car clubs around the nation.
The sports car club helps
keep alive the period when
owning a car was an adven-
ture. The sports car rally, an
event that tests navigational
skills, is a throwback to the
earliest days of motoring
when roads hardly existed
and road maps did not. Thus
the way to grandmother's
house was a sketchy set 01
instructions that read:
Co left at the red barn.
Turn Icft at Watkins'
grocery.
Proceed to the Y in the
road and veer right.
Rallies today test drivers'
ability and yehicle condition
as contestants prove their
way around an unknown
route at prescribed speeds.
Other sports car club
favorites that set drivers
against their own skills in-
elude gymkhanas, auto-
crosses, slaloms and field
trials. These track meets for
cars are the most popular
form of motorsport in the
country.
These close -coursed time
and maneuverability events
place an emphasis on the
skill of the driver and the
condition and agility of the
cars. A group of cars dodg-
ing tricky obstacles on park-
ing lots, open fields and even
frozen lakes in winter is a
common weekend sight.
A fairly recent activity of
sports car .clubs is the fuel
economy rally which probes
the driver's ability to ma-
'ncuver a rally course with
the most efficient use of fuel.
At sports car club events,
careful attention is paid to

Equipment affects gas use
Your car has been outside
all day in egg -frying tem-
peratures,
You slip behind the wheel
of your car, snap on the
scat belt and turn the key.
It starts .. , just as it did
a few months ago when it
was at the curb all night in
sub -freezing weather.
Amazing?
Not at all, but perhaps it
should be because your car
—.if typical -- has received
much less care than it de-
serves, Recommended serv-
ice intervals too often are
ignored by many motorists,
the same people who would
never think of letting a'week
go by without vacuuming all
the carpeting in the house
or following a schedule for
watering their plants.
Outstanding machine
The automobile is truly an
outstanding machine, says
the Automotive Information
Council. Not only is it ex-
pected to function under
such a wide range of weath-
er conditions, but it is sub-
jected to road salt, chuck-
holes, careless ' and hard
driving and indifferent
maintenance,
"I can't think of another
product that has to do so
much under so many ad-
verse conditions," said Ron-
ald H, Weiner, president of
the Automotive Information
Council.
"We have come to rely
on the proper functioning
of an automobile to the
point where we never make
a time -allowance in case the
car should fail .to go," Wei-
ner said. "We just expect it
to start up and move out
and, fortunately, that's what
happens almost every time,
But the isolated instance
causes the owner to forget
the many hundreds or thou-
sands of tines the car started
without a problem.
Simple tune-up
"And chances are that the
problem resulted from neg-
lect. -A simple tune-up, add-
ing water to the battery,
cleaning the battery termi-
nals, a lubrication, using a
carburetor cleaner: All of
these minor items can go a
long way in keeping a'reli-
able product even more re-
liable."
Tires, too, are neglected,
even though the air is free.
Car more complex
At the same time, the car
has become far more com-
plex, with the great growth
in use of air conditioning,
power steering and brakes,
cruise control, air -emission
systems and others.
"Give your car just a
little tender loving care and
it should last you more than

128—CAR CARE SECTION!
Hauling heavy load?
Keep transmission cool
A husky trailer hitch be-
hind a car indicates an owner
who gets double use from
his vehicle. He probably
pulls 'a boat, camper or trav-
el trailer. Double the pleas-
ure but, in some cases, dou-
ble trouble if that car or
truck is not properly serv-
iced for the added burden.
Most vulnerable part of
the trailer towing car is the
automatic transmission. Car
Care Council reminds trail-
ering motorists to have auto-
matic transmission fluid and
filter changed before setting
out for a summer's fun. Be
sure necessary adjustments
are made, too.
Routine transmission serv-
ice costs less than $30 on
most cars, a small fraction
of the cost of an overhaul,
says the Council.
And if the load you're
pulling is anything greater
than a lightweight boat or
Vital services
being ignored
by car owners
If you're looking for a
good reason to keep a safe
distance from cars you share
the road with, consider a
recent study conducted by
the Motor and Equipment
Manufacturers Association
(MEMA).
According to MEMA, of
original owner vehicles (av-
erage age 3.86 years) more
than 40 per cent of the
maintenance jobs recom-
mended in the owner's man-
ual had not been performed
once.
The report continued,
" ... among five-year old
cars nearly 23 per cent had
maintenance outstanding.
Among cars 11 years old
and older nearly 11 per cent
of the maintenance functions
still had not been done."
Among the most neglected
items are components that
affect safety. Nearly 54 per
cent of all cars 3.86 years
old have never had brakes
replaced. With the normal
recommendation of 25,000 -
nails shook absorber replace-
ment, 57.7 per cent of all
cars slid have original shocks
attar nearly four years of
&rte.
PROPERLY WORN BELTS
HELP SAVE GAS
Wearing combination seat
and shoulder belts is a good
safety idea for motorists,
and can help save gasoline.
Properly worn belts help
assure a correct posture,
thus making it easier for you
to keep a light foot on the
accelerator.
Your car seat should be
adjusted so your foot rests
gently on the accelerator.
camper, consider installing
a transmission cooler, an
accessory that can pay for
itself many times over.
Number one enemy of
the automatic transmission
is heat, much of which is
developed inside the trans-
mission's torque converter
where all of the engine's
power is delivered to the
rear wheels through oil.
Like two fans facing each
other, one turned on and the
other spinning free, the driv-
ing blades or vanes in the
torque converter direct the
oil against the driven blades.
. The "shearing" action of
the oil under heavy load
produces temperatures high
enough to cause the oil even-
tually to break down and
lose its lubricating qualities.
So to avoid transmission
repair bills, keep it cool and
dean.
