President Therin Ellis of the P.E.I. Plowing Council agreed the crowd was around 5,000 peo- ple. There was no way of Gett- ing a detailed estimate. but that one seem to be reason- ably correct.

Asked about the organization for the match, Mr. Ellis and Graeme Linkletter, who is see- retary- treasurer, said that there

as been general planning as far back as two years, but the council has concentrated in planning detail for the past 12 months.

SOIL PERFECT

But best of all at a cham- pionship match, the plowing was excellent and the land was in use to rfect plowing condi- tion. That terrific rain storm of Monday night played havoc with the booths. but it left the soil justabout as nearly perfect as possible for plowing.

Views from outside the prov- ince included ose of veteran plowing observer Harold man, British Columbia and Ed Hudek. who judged for Manl- toba. Both agreed the excellence of the plowing was never ter in a Canadian championship in their memory, Mr. German added he had nev- er seen better land for plowing. though Mr. Hudek added with a smile "with the exception of Manitoba."

MAJOR IMPORTANCE

Mr. Stewart said organization of a provincial safety council was of major importance, in view of the Island's highway ac cident rate. death and injury toll. Figures already this year aid Mr. Stewart, showed: 28 highway deaths, 297 persons in jured in highway accidents and a conservative property damage estimate of $421,464 as a result of accidents.

Mr. Stewart said the provm— cial safety council program tr. part would involve various pro- grams on the causes of accl- dents and how to avoid them. This possibly would be under- taken through safety trainln: of I young people, and «treasures to determine the ability of elder ly drivers.

“If we can educate the young people in right. driving habits

A driver's general ability is not checked after he is issued a licence, at present, said Mr. Stewart. A system of re-check- ing or reexamining of driVers was desirable, he continued.

“Many r people are good drivers, but there are others who do not realise that the y have slipped." said Mr. Stew- art He explained that some ei- derly drivers perhaps did not have full control 'of their facul- ties. NEW TRAFFIC ACT

Another proposal to aid high- way safety, was implementation of any proposed changes in the province's highway traffic act. said Mr. Stewart. It was hoped the new highway traffic act introduced last year would be in the hands of the courts within a short time, he said.

The planned setup of the new provincial Safety Council, was outlined by safety officer, Mr. Barlow.

Important to the planning was participation on a community basis. he said. At the commun- ity level would 4-H groups and other groups interested in highway safety. Next would be some 30 sub-coordinators, each centrally located to about six communities; in turn, there would be a co-ordinator, a re- ceiving committee, executive advisory committee and finally the executive of the Provincial Highway Council, explained Mr. Barlow.

Also proposed at the inaugu— ral meeting, were a number of executive advisory committee members, representative of the Island's three counties. 4-H Clubs and the P.E.I. Federation of Agriculture.
