They represent the earache, the headache and tile stomach ache. "They are here to suggest," said a wry Dane, "that if you enter politics, you will have all three." A popular sport During the last couple of weeks we have attended several meetings where the subject of snowmobiling has taken up a lot of time. Most of the complaints have been of excess noise especially during the late hours and also riding on sidewalks. Exeter Police Chief Ted Day told us early this week that any snowmobile operator with his machine on a sidewalk in the town would be charged. The same goes for making unnecessary noise. This charge can be laid under the Highway Traffic Act. We know that only a very small percentage of the operators are causing these concerns and would hope that they heed the warnings and don't spoil the sport for the rest of the snowmobile enthusiasts. Chief Day said operators are privileged to drive their snow vehicles within the town limits, so, "Therefore, keep them on the roadways and off the sidewalks." Day cited an' instance in St. Marys last week where an elderly lady was standing on the sidewalk and was seriously injured when struck by a snow vehicle. The number of snow vehicles in the area is increasing by leaps and bounds. The council in Grand Bend is concerned with snow vehicles running on their green areas and sidewalks. They hope that operators will use common sense so stringent rules need not be put into effect. Chief Day and his Exeter police department are this week holding clinics at the Exeter public school on the proper use of snow vehicles and have composed a traffic knowledge test. Another questionnaire has also been drafted that will be available to adults through dealers along with a request for assistance from all snow vehicle operators for care and courtesy towards pedestrians and the public in general. We recently ran across some do's and don'ts for snow vehicle operators. They may seem rather simple: but this type of rules are the ones that can cause a lot of trouble if broken and certainly can stand constant repeating.

Single goals were fired by Randy Parsons, Perry Pooley and Derek Regier. Steve Skinner's second goal of the night at 14.59 of the third period enabled the Exeter novice boys to squeeze past their London opposition by a score of 5-4. The London club moved in front 2-0 in the first period before the Exeter youngsters got really organized. Skinner started his team off on the right foot with an unassisted goal at 13.55 and exactly one minute later started the play that allowed Brian Mercer fire the equalizing goal. The locals scored the only goal of the middle frame with Perry Pooley hitting the mark on a three-way effort with Eugene Clarke and Randy Fisher. The London team came back to knot the score at 3.3 early in the third period. Danny Bell shot the locals back in front 4-3 as he completed a play with Brian Mercer and Perry Pooley.

Do's Register your snowmobile at your nearest Licensing Bureau, where laws require it and affix registration plate to rear of back-rest. Always use your lights when riding at dusk or at night. The reduced visibility makes it a must to protect yourself and alert oncoming drivers. Insure your Ski-Doo snowmobile against Public Liability. Until you become truly expert, do follow established trails. They will keep you away from barbed wire fences and guy wires. Mark all new trails that you and your group may use frequently. Trail marker signs are available from your dealer. Check weather forecasts before long drives and be sure to either carry enough fuel or map out fuel stops along the route, Always carry emergency materials and supplies, (spark plug, drive belt, tools, bulbs, flashlight, rope, matches, etc.). Be careful when giving children a ride. Go more slowly and check frequently. Use a rigid hitch or two-bar when pulling a caboose or other trailer behind your snowmobile. Rigid hitches prevent tailgate collision on sudden stops and provide better control. When trailering your snowmobile, tie it solidly, protect it with a bright cover, check trailer hitch and tail lights before leaving. I Shipka is first in Ausable loop Shipka took over undisputed possession of first place in the Ausable Rec hockey league by downing former league leaders, the Brinsley Bombers 3.2 at the Exeter arena, Sunday night. Shipka now boasts a season point total of nine. Brinsley and Ailsa Craig are tied for second with eight points apiece while Lieury trails with only three points. In Sunday's other contest Ailsa Craig and Lieury played to a 4.4 draw. Barry Clarke scored two goals to lead the Shipka scoring attack and the first place position. The single goal was fired by Dan Dalton. Scoring in single fashion for Brinsley were George Tryon and Jack Conlin. Gerald Noordman picked up a hat trick for his night's work in heading the Lieury scoring in the tie with • Ailsa Craig. Doug Mawson completed the scoring with a lone counter. Wayne McAlpine potted a pair of goals to spearhead the Ailsa Craig marksmen with Dave Collins and Charlie Eedy each scoring once. Dori t4s Don't cut across in front of the line of travel of another snowmobile, Collision or the threat of it is serious with any moving vehicle. Don't risk injury or damage to your machine with needless and foolish stunting. Never ride on railway tracks. The sound of your engine drowns out noise of approaching trains. Don't jump or cut through fences; and always respect private property. Don't cross a river or lake without checking the thickness of the ice. Your life may depend on it. Don't smoke while refueling. Don't drive your snowmobile in the vicinity of skiers, Keep off ski trails. Don't leave your keys in the ignition switch. It presents an invitation to thieves and a danger to curious children. Mt.
