Ministry wants to hear from fishermen Bulls 'start mixed results BY LOIS McARTER The Brussels Bulls opened their Junior “D” schedule on Friday, Oct. 3 in Exeter. The first appearance of the players on the ice gave one a quick shiver as the opposing players seemed to tower over the local squad. Wearepleasedto report thatthey didn’t use their size to advantage and an excellent hockey game ensued. The play was end-to-end until only 3:25 remain ed in the period when Exeter finally beat the defence and goalie Pat Chamberstoscorethe only first period goal. The second period was almost identical with Brussels coming through to score with only 3:11 remaining in the period. The old midget line of Tim Fritz, Kevin McArter, and Kevin Johnston connected to tie the game. The third period had both goalies stopping numerous shots and guarded their goal posts well as the game ended in a 1-1 tie. The Bulls played their home opener on Friday night before an excellent crowd of spectators against the defending “D” Cham pions of last year, the Seaforth Centennaires. The first period was almost half over before Tim Fritz assisted by Mike Vincent and Dave Harding combined to score the first goal for Brussels. Just 30 seconds later Seaforth connected to tie the game. Thenwith 4:48 remaining Seaforth scored on a power play effort to end the period at 2 - 1. Brussels managed to score the tying goal early in the second. Blake Flett assisted by Tim Fritz scored the goal. Seaforth scored two quick goals a minute apart to take the lead once more.

Then with only 23 seconds remaining on the clock, Lucan scored their fifth goal to claim the 7 - 6 victory.

The arena will soon be in full swing once more. The Wingham District of the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) is inviting public involve ment in preparing their new fisheries management plan. The fisheries resource provides important recreational, environ mental and economic benefits. In fact, the sport and commercial fisheries of the Wingham District (which incorporates all of Huron and Perth, and small portions of Bruce and Wellington Counties) is a multi-million dollar industry - a significant economic benefit in what is mainly an agricultural area. Because the fisheries resources of southwestern Ontario are limit ed, and there are many conflicting demands for what is available, an effective management plan is needed. MNR staff have compiled a summary entitled “Background Information and Optional Manage ment Strategies’’ which outlines objectives, issues and possible strategies and tactics for managing fisheries to optimum advantage to the year 2000. Some major issues have been identified. At present, the demand for the more popular species - trout, salmon, yellow perch and bass - exceeds the supply. At the same time, other species are being under-utilized. A user-conflict potentially exists between sport and commercial fishermen. Many anglers are disappointed at the lack of trophy-size bass in local waters. Habitat deterioration and destruction through pollution, ero sion and certain agricultural prac tices remains a serious problem, problem. Mike Malhoit, district biologist with the Ministry, stressed the importance of public involvement. “Input from the users of the resource is critical to the develop ment of a final fisheries plan if managers are to provide the public with the fisheries opport uni ties and products that they desire”, he said. Anglers, commercial fisher men, landowners and interested citizens are urged to come out and share their ideas and concerns with MNR staff. An open house will be held at the Wingham District Office from 12 noon until 8:00 p.m. on Thursday, October 23 and Friday, October 24, 1986. Written submissions will also be accepted until October 31, 1986. MAKETHE SWITCH ...TO CORN HYBRIDS THAT CAN WAKE UP YOUR PROFITS!
