W. R. STRIKE AGAIN ELECTED PR! SIDENT 0F BADMINTON CLUB Club Activities Get Under Way For Season Wlth Annual Meeting and Dance Bowmnanville Badminton Club ac- tivities got under way for the coni- ing season on Fniday night when the annual meeting o! the Club was held at the club nooms. There was a good turn out which auguned well for the future o! the club. Presi- dent W. R. Stnike presided at the business session at which the secre- tary's and treasurer's reports were presented. showing a successful sea- son in 1931-32 and the finances o! the club in a healthy condition. The election o! directors o! the club resulted in the folhowing being eiected. 9 representing the trustees o! the lease and 3 the club member- ship: I. G. Hefkey, Alan Campbell, J. O'Neill, D. R. Morrison, M. A. Neal. Chas. Cattran, Duncan Smith, H. M. Nanson, S. R. James, C. H. Dudley, W. L. Elliott and W. R. Stnike. When these directors meet at a later date officers of the Club will bc elected. While the club Is officially open the courts wîhl not be open until such time as the weather will war- rant their constant use. This is done to ensure that the maximum of use is secured as the overhead expenses o! the club are extremeiy high when the courts are in use. Following the meeting nef resh- ments wene served and a dance was held in the hall. Carl Rutter and bis orchestra f rom Oshawa made their initial appearance here and provided snappy renditions o! al the latest dance numbers, and the usual good time was had. Dances will be held regularly each month. W. Ross Strike was ne-elected President o! the Club when the dir- ectors met on Tuesday night. Other officers elected were: Vice President -M. A. Neal; Treasurer-I. G. Hef- key; Secretary-Ahan Campbell; As- sistant Treas.-D. A. Smith. SHOULD THERE BE COUNTY COUNCILS ? The fonecasted intention o! the Henry govermnent to abolish county councils has been given a rather mixed reception, comments the Chatham News. There is, it says, undoubtedly a strong body o! public opinion favorable to any practical move in the direction o! economy. There is also a considerable body of opinion influenced by tradition and disposed to cling to things as they have been. The present project recalîs a measure o! county council nef orm initiated more than thirty years ago. Hon. A. S. Hardy was then Premier. The county councils were then, as now, made up o! neeves and deputy reeves o! the various local munici- palities. It was generally felt that the membership was too large; that "log rolling" was ý too prevalent practice; and that fas a result the method o! county administration wvas too expensuve. Hon. Mn. Hardys' measures pro- vided for a reduced membensiiip. Counties were divided into districts. each as a nule compnising several o! the smaller municipalities. In- stead of each municipality sending its reeves and deputies to the coun- ty parliament. each district elected two county commissioners by gen- eral vote. And the county commis- sioners could not be members o! the local municipal councils. Kent, for example, was divided into seven districts, electing. ahi told, fourteen commissioners. One unquestioned result was a decided impovement in the average personnel o! the county council. The ablest men were drafted to the county parliament; and the smaller municipalities were particulaniy as- siduous In putting up strong candi- dates who could command more than local support. The system, from the standpoint o! sound ad- ministration, appears to have work- ed wvell. But it ran counter to vuhnerable traditions. County Councils for de-' cades had included representativesi o! every local municipality. however smail. Under the new system a dis- trict might include three or more municipalities: and with oniy tivo commissioners, one municipality at least must-techlncally-go unre- presented. By the device o! putting up strong men and "plumping" for their can- didates. the smaller municipalities not infrequently secured represen- tation. Romney. for instance, put in Thomas Robinson, a! terward warden: and Bothwell elected George Johns.
