To provide home study As a service to students who ate absent from school for long periods due to illness or accident, the Middlesex County Board of Education will provide opportunities for home study. On Monday night, the Board adopted a policy governing the service. A Home Instruction Unite of three one-hour periods per week may be approved on a parent's request. The request must be supported by a doctor's statement to the school Principal saying that the student will be unable to attend regular classes for a period likely to be at least forty consecutive School days. It Will also have to indicate that the student's health, it sufficiently good to allow him to benefit from the instruction. DeWitt of the horde instruction program will be developed by the student's school principal in consultation with the Board's Superintendent of Administration and Development. It is not expected that many requests for Such a service will be received; however, the new policy will assist families and teachers when the need arises, By CLARE STANLEY Sunday, the Lucan Irish gave manager Jim Freeman a win to help him celebrate his birthday by defeating the disorganized Exeter Hawks by a 7-5 score. Both teams played both well and poorly at times, Lucan brought the Hawks to a standstill for two periods then both teams went on the offensive and the goals were scored almost at will as the fans were left hoarse as both teams threw caution to the wind. Lucan forwards who for two periods checked the Hawks in their own end, caved in and left it up to the defence to carry the Play. The defence had more time to play the puck as forwards like Doug Rosser, Ken Needham and Tom Anderson backchecked and hit! If Lucan is to win this series they must learn to forecheck and play aggressive hockey for 60 minutes each game and not let up as they did in the third period. Exeter who have not shown a real desire to win in the last few weeks are a strong skating club with two possibly three really good players who could beat Lucan let loose. Last night Bob White and the Hawks came to town and I hope you were at the game to see the action.
