One accident They did so well in fact that only one accident was reported. A two car crash on Friday at 8:40 p.m. resulted in charges against both drivers and an estimated $500 in damages to both cars. John ,Deschamps of Midland was charged with having a frosted up back window and no side mirror. The other driver, Willard Charlebois of Penetanguishene was charged with following too closely.

One of the dogs, a collie, was picked up in the Brule Heights area, the other, a male tan puppy, was found on Peel Street according to Humane Society supervisor Alexandra Parry. At the last town council meeting (two weeks ago) Lomas criticized the society saying that "dogs are run- ning at large in the town" and this municipality is not being serviced for the rates it's paying to the Humane Society. At that time Lomas told the council he had called the Society on Friday, January 3, and Thursday, January 9, but that no one had come.to pick up the stray dogs. In a recent interview with the Citizen Alexandra Parry said records show the Humane Society picked up two dogs.on January 3 and another on Peel Street a day later during a routine patrol. As for the January 9 call Parry said no record of it exists. The area_ supervisor quickly added that she is not denying Lomas made the January 9 call, only that "we have no record of any calls from Penetanguishene (on that day)." The Humane Society keeps a written record of all in- coming calls on regular work days. On Sunday's an an- swering service handles the calls and maintains records by leaving a ticket for each call. The Humane Society supervisor said if Lomas did not give his name on calling there may be no record of the Knights of Columbus Hall. Standing from left to right are: Dogs running at large: Lomas call. Lomas later said he only gave information as to where the dogs were running loose and did not leave his name. According to Alexandra Parry this is the first complaint about the Society's service in the Penetanguishene area. 'I'm a little upset to say the least"' Parry said concerning the criticism. She added that the Society did a lot of work in the Penetanguishene area last summer when there was a problem with rabid skunks.

However, Parry claims that she has written a letter to town officials last April requesting a meeting with council and "we did not receive a reply." A request by the Ontario Humane Society for a rate increase from area municipalities appeared to spark Lomas' outburst against the Society at the recent meeting.

The area supervisor said the Humane Society would continue to honour existing two year contracts with municipalities until they run out. As contracts come up for renewal the society will push for the per capita increases to cover continuall higher operating costs.
