AUSTIN HODGINS Clerk Biddulph Township What happens if you get sick or have an accident while you're travelling? This is what Ontario is doing to protect you away from home. 1. Know what benefits OHIP provides before you leave home. 2. If you consider that your OHIP coverage may be insufficient, you can obtain supplehlentary coverage from private insurers for out of prov- ince charges. 3. Always carry your OHIP card with you. 4. In a financial emergency, ask the hospital to phone or write OHIP to confirm your coverage. Remember, you will usually have to make pay- ment on the spot for treatment outside Ontario. But OHIP will reimburse you for insured services if you submit itemized receipts within 6 months of the date of service. Describe why you were outside of Ontario — vacation, business, etc.—and provide complete personal information plus details of the medical or hospital service performed. Include name and address of physician, hospital, fee for each service and dates. And always state your OHIP number, A free booklet called "The Traveller's Guide to the Ontario Health Insurance Plan" explains everything you need to know, Copies are available at government offices and travel agencies.

In case of injury or sudden illness outside Ontario, OHIP will pay the cost of standard hospital accommodation. For non-emergency services, it will pay up to 75% of the cost for the type of hospital service normally covered under your Ontario Plan. Medical fees will be reimbursed to you at 90% of approved services as set out in the Ontario Medical Association Schedule of Fees. But bear in mind that medical costs in some countries are often higher than in Ontario. So avoid being faced with a bill considerably higher than the amount OHIP can repay you, by doing four things: Government of Ontario William Davis, Premier 4", .• :14 s • ,4 • 1$.". 4 ' ' Seniors play euchre, discuss craft classes First win for intermediates, Irish tied for first place Christmas party, with the Ladies Auxiliary of branch 540 Royal Canadian Legion catering, It was decided to raffle a box of groceries to raise money to assist in paying for the dinner, and a bake sale will be held in the club rooms on Saturday, November 16 commencing at 1 p.m. Mrs. Cecil Neil gave a reading "How to beat trick or treat" from the Exeter-Times Advocate, ANNUAL TEA Euchre, played for high score, was enjoyed at the Sunshine group of the Lucan senior citizens club on Thursday afternoon with Lon Phillips and Mrs. H.

Huron East led 1-0 after one period but a second period goal by hard- working Jim Benn knotted the score going into the final frame. Jim Benn's second goal of the game with Cecil Nickles assisting, gave Lucan the tie. The Lucan Bantams played Exeter and the visitors must have wished Ron Glenn was just a spectator as he scored three goals to lead Lucan to a 4-2 vic- tory. All three of Glenn's goals were scored in the first period as Lucan lead 3-0 after one period of play. Calvin McCallum and Martin Duenk set up Glenn's first goal with McCallum also assisting on the second marker. Dean Den- smore and Kevin Gilmour assisted on the final goal of the period.

Two shorthanded goals early in the third period put the game out of reach as Jim Hearn and Bob Evans scored two quick goals with each getting an assist on the other's marker, Evans then scored on a slapshot from close in after receiving a pass from Parkinson. Late in the third period Grosse Point scored a meaningless goal to end the scoring. Lucan's goaltender, Don Stewart, turned in a strong performance, especially early in the game when the score was quite close. The Ho-Jo's took 15 of 24 penalties assessed with both teams receiving a fighting major. As a result of two victories over the weekend, the Irish are now tied for first place in the Junior 'D' league nith Belmont. Wen- desday night at home, Lucan upended Tavistock 7-4 to even their record at two wins and two losses.

Mike McIntyre gave Lucan a brief 1-0 lead only to have the Flyers tie the score. Craig Corman scored the other Irish goal on a long slapshot that handcuffed the Lambeth goalie. Again Lambeth tied the score. At this point Lambeth had a distinct advantage in the overall play but their shooters were stymied by the fine goaltending of Kevin Lightfoot. In the third period the momentum switched over to the Irish as Mike Wraith knocked in a rebound after Ed Robb's initial shot was stopped. Randy Funston then added an :insurance gb" s(P °a, few minutes later to preserve the win for Lucan.
