Hope to stage area Olympics
While South Huron has
never generated an Olympic
champion, that may all
change if the concept being
explored by a couple of local
citizens comes into fruita-
tion.
Deb Wooden and Bob
Whiteford have presented a
plan to stage a series of
athletic events next summer
and for discussion purposes,
they have been designated
as the “South Huron Olym
pics”.
South Huron recreation
Suspended drivers
pay fines for driving
Three area residents
appeared before Judge W. G.
Cochrane to face charges of
driving while their licences
were under suspension in
Exeter court, Tuesday.
All three pleaded guilty.
Murray A. J. Paquette,
Huron Park, was fined $300
or 30 days on a charge laid on
June 23. He was given 60
days in which to pay the fine.
Dennis Henry Powell,
Goderich, who was charged
on July 26, was fined $250 or
25 days and was given 30
days in which to pay.
Robert Ross Tuckey,
Exeter, paid $200 for an
offence on June 22 and
another $300 for a similar
incident on August 13. •
An area woman, Marianne
Ortmanns, RR 3 Exeter, was
fined $50 on each of five
counts of making false
statements under the
Unemployment Insurance
Act, for a total fine of $250 or
25 days.
The court learned that two
of the charges for false
claims were made on June 18
and three more laid on June
19.
The woman received an
overpayment of $443, of
which $277 is still out
standing.
Kenneth John Horrell,
Exeter, was fined $300 or 30
days on a charge of
possession of a weapon and
was placed on probation for
two years, during which time
Two collisions
for town police
Damages were listed at
$2,100 in two accidents in
vestigated this week by
officers of the Exeter town
police department.
Thursday, vehicles driven
by Mary Lou Becker, Huron
Park and Anaslasia Hoff
man, 371 William Street,
Exeter collided at the corner
cf William and Sanders
streets. Constable Kevin
Short set damages at $1,300.
Vehicles driven by Oege
Koopmans, Exeter and
Clayton Cooper, Kippen and
Vallance Reid, Huron Park
were in collision Friday on
Main Street near Alexander.
Damages were estimated at
$800 by Constable Jim
Barnes.
Constable George
Robertson is investigating
the theft of two plastic flower
pots from the home of M.
Ryckman, 545 Main Street,
Exeter.
Friday a male adult was
arrested by Constable Brad
Sadler and charged with
impaired driving. He will
appear in Provincial court in
Exeter in October.
he was ordered to refrain
from alcoholic beverages
and must not possess or
handle any firearm.
The charge was laid after
a June 25 incident in
vestigated by Exeter Con
stable George Robertson
who answered a complaint
regarding a domestic
dispute.
When the policeman
arrived, the accused picked
up a shotgun, but put it down
after being advised by his
wife that it was loaded.
Horrell was given 60 days
in which to pay the fine.
In other cases heard on
Tuesday, the following fines
were levied by Judge
Cochrane:
Barry A. Davis, Kitchener,
was fined $250 or 25 days
after pleading guilty to a
charge of impaired driving
on May 12. A breathalizer
test gave a reading of 210
mgs.
Sentence was set over for
Darcy Daniel Fundytus, RR
2 Hensail, who pleaded guilty
to a charge of assault against
Michael Dobbs, Exeter, on
September 16. Dobbs was
injured in the incident which
took place in Exeter.
board administrator Kirk
Armstrong said this week he
was enthusiastic about the
proposal, and has called a
meeting for next Wednesday
(Oct. 4) at 8:00 p.m. at the
rec centre when the two
local sports enthusiasts will
present their ideas for
anyone who wishes to at
tend.
Some discussion has
already been held on the
concept and Armstrong said
that there appeared to be
enough interest to pursue it
more thoroughly.
It is hoped to capitalize on
the push towards fitness and
participation at all levels of
physical activity. “We are
constantly being made
aware of the need to stay
fit,” Armstrong said in a
letter to some of those in
terested in the scheme.
The South Huron Olym
pics would be a week of
physical activities and com-
Warden's race
petitions of all ages.
Facilities such as the rec
centre, pool. Morrison dam
and perhaps the schools
would be used for the many
activities that would range
from individual through
team sports.
Any resident of the area
interested in discussing the
possibility of such a
program is invited to attend
Wednesday night’s meeting.
The overall objectives of
the program are outlined as
follows:
1. The stimulation of
public awareness of the
variety of amateur sporting
activities available to area
residents.
2. The creation of interest
and participation in these
activities.
3. The motivation of peo
ple to train now in prepara
tion for the Olympics in
June of next year.
4. The reward of outstan
ding levels of achievement
in the various physical ac
tivities.
OCTOPUS MANEUVRE — Stefan Orenczuk and Bob Whiteford end up in a twisted tangle
of arms and legs in Saturday's tug-of-war. The procedure paid off as they helped Exeter win
the first heat, but they couldn't get it together in the next two and lost to Centralia.
Police investigate
three hit and runs
the culvert, while on Sunday
a vehicle struck a hydro pole
in Hensall on Richmond St.,
resulting in damage of $500
to the pole.
Constables Giffin and
Mason investigated the
latter two incidents.
At 2:30 a.m., Saturday,
vehicles driven by Douglas
Fairbairn, Exeter, and
Harold Schroeder, Dash
wood, collided on Highway 83
east of the Huron Road 2
intersection.
Damage was estimated at
$1,300 by Constable Al Quinn.
The other crash of the
week occurred on Sunday at
1:00 p.m,, involving vehicles
operated by Kenneth Nutt,
Thamesville, and John
Muller, RR 1 Crediton.
They collided on Huron St.
at the junction of concession
2 in Stephen and Constable
Giffin set total damage at
$500.
Three hit and run ac
cidents were among the six
investigated by the Exeter
OPP this week.
Only one injury was
reported, that being
sustained by a Crediton area
woman who was involved in
a car-bicycle accident
Monday in the village.
Lillian Kuhn, RR 1
Crediton, suffered a scraped
leg and bruises when her
bicycle was in collision with
a vehicle driven by Chester
Mitton, Crediton.
The first of the hit and runs
was reported on Sunday at

vehicle owned by Robert
Dannecker, Kitchener,
was struck by an unknown
vehicle while parked on the
east shoulder of the road at
lot 27, concession 17 Stephen.
Damage was listed at $150
by Constable Frank Giffin.
On Friday, a vehicle
struck a culvert on con
cession 2 of Stephen, just
south’of sideroad 15-16,

Warden Ginn said he
“hoped he was not giving
council the impression that
if councillors didn’t an
nounce their intentions Fri
day they were out”. Ginn
said that since the elections
were moved to earlier in the
year now he felt that he
would try to create a little
• “interest” and get some
“election fever going”.
Ginn said he hoped he
hadn’t embarrassed anyone
pointing out that anyone
thinking of running for
warden had until the
November session of county
council to state their inten
tions.
