The township is no longer covered by the same in- surance company and will likely be unable to make a claim to recover their costs. The issue was refer- red to a committee.

The Engineering depart- ment is looking into the possibility of purchasing a hoist and also hosting a safety seminar. The roads department will continue to grade roads to prevent potholes.

The township will amend their resolution ad- dressed to the Railway Transport Committee to in- clude the recommendation that hearings be held across Canada with regard to the proposed End of Train Unit. The original resolu- tion reads as follows: Whereas: The Railway Transport Committee, and the Board of Transport Commissioners are con- sidering allowing Canadian Railways to introduce End of Train Units (ETU) at the rear of trains operating in Canada. And Whereas: The Railways seem to suggcst, that these units can perform the function normally car- ried out by the rear crew in a caboose. And Whereas: These have only one purpose. Namely the transmission of air pressure levels from the rear of the train to the engine. And. Whereas: The Council of the Township of Schreiber' is deeply con- cerned that all safety prac- tices possible, are main- tained by the railways, in the operation of heavily loaded trains transporting Fitness Freaks vs. Jog Hogs by ERIN MARCELLA This week the Fitness Freaks played volley- ball against the Jog Hogs only a few showed up. We still played and just divided up the teams. My team was called the Canadians and the other team was Russia. The score ended up 15 to 12 for Russia. While we were trying to gather up another game, péople in the next room made up cheesey popcorn and put out my Curry dip and vege- tables. We never did get another game started but instead went and ate. Some girls tried to make Bran Muffins but everybody thought they tasted like noodles. The losers were supposed to eat the muffins but not a chance! The night was very fun and I hope to do it all again. Last Meeting ree This Wednesday at our 4-H meeting we finished our books since it was our last meeting. We went over each and every page making sure it was done. We must hand our books in to Dawn this Sunday be- cause she wants to give them to the lady who marks them. After that we planned our skits which we are acting out on Achieve- ment Night Dec. 4 and I hope you all attend that exciting night. Well that's all for 4-H so I'll sign off until the next project which I will be attending. So come on and join 4-H. You will be satisfied. Last Meeting dangerous commodities of all kinds through and in our Township. Now therefore: The Council of the Township of . Schreiber, strongly urges the Railway Transport Committee, and the Board of Transport Commis- sioners to consider the following' points while deliberating on this ex- tremely important matter: 1. The end of train unit cannot insure correct dangerous commodity identification. 2. Cannot prevent derailments by surveillance of a train by the rear end crew. 3. Cannot detect odours from overheated bearings, or leaking dangerous commodities. 4.~ Cannot detect dangerous track conditions, or see evidence of malfunc- tion caused by dragging equipment or derailment. 5. Cannot bring the train to a stop in an emergency, or protect the rear of the train. 6. Cannot protect the train movement at public crossings, or take the . necessary action to eliminate unnecessary crossing blockage. 7. Cannot stop a train when 'it is imminent that an automobile will strike the side or rear of the train, or assist at the scene of an ac- cident at a public crossing, or notify the authorities if an accident has occurred. 8. Cannot assure alert- ness of the engine crew nor act as a backup in the event of a derailment and from crew missing or obstructed from reaching the rear por- tion of the train. And Further: that the commissioners. consider that no amount of monies saved by the railways could compensate for the loss of one man, woman, or child. Railway safety is not just the concern of the railway, but to the thousands of peo- ple in this country who live in communities like Schreiber, through which the railways run. It is the responsibility of the Com- mission to ensure their safety, to the extent that it is in the Commissioner's power to do so. And Finally: That the Commissioners will not allow the railways to take any further steps in their at- tempt to implement a so- called "advanced technological device", which in fact, blatantly disregards the deep con- cern for safety expressed by the Commission over the years. continued from page 8 Mass a Brunch catered by **Mom and Me" was serv- ed in the Parish Hall.
