CRAIGHQLME HEAD LEAVES — Nelson Scheifele, administrator at Craigholme Nursing' Home in Ailsa Craig for ei
number of years has resigned his position. A'going-away party was held Wednesday afternoon with gifts from residents and
staff. At- the back are Marg Wiley, Jackie Wells, Joan Barthel, Marilyn Morley, Marg Cunningham and Lida Jarrett. Front,

emigrated to Canada in 1%6
to the Burlington area. He
attend ed tint versity of
Western Ontaiio and
graduated with hiS B.Sc in
zoology. Upon graduatiOn be
spent the next year in Japan
teaching English, and then
continued touring S.E. Asia
before settling in Guatemala
for a year where he- worked
for the government on a
fisheries- development pro-
ject.
He returned to Canada,
and Western University
where he then earned his
honours Phys. ed, degree
and Masters degree higport
Psychology. For two and a
half years he was on staff of
the Madame Vanier Home
as Director of Physical
Education and is currently
on staff at Craigwood at
Ai Ise Craig,
He and his wife, Dallas,
reside on H.R. 1,' Ailsa
Craig. They have a
daughter, Jessica, who is
only a year old but who
already has enjoyed sitting
in a kayak paddling in calm
waters.
Carefully study the patterns
of the water before paddling
any areas where dapger
might exist.
"You must analize the
currents and use them to
your advantage", he stress-
ed. However,. even he, at one
point found himself caught
in an eddy but with a good
background knowledge and
skill, and good fortune, was
able to extract himself
without mishap.
One of the most challeng-
ing experiences occurs when
one- paddler has to give help
to another whose life may be
in danger. "Then the only
thing you think about is
rescuing your companion",
he stressed. "Other times
you are concentrating on the
water and your skills, but
when someone's life is in
danger you react by concen-
trating only on getting the
other kayak back to safety."
And this, he admits, he was
called upon to do on a couple
of occasions, as was fellow
Canadian, Michael Klugston.
On an average the flow of
the water was a swift 30
miles per hour down the
rocky terrain. Their kayaks
were built of, diolem, a
fabric developed from space
exploration. ,,"Kayaks have

The government's refusal

hearing On the eolith Cayuga
waste project On-
thaws to be controversial,
The NDP has indicated OW
it might vote against the
Government on this issue.
Since the Liberal Party
has already promised to
withhold approval of
Environment Ministry
estimates because of the
proposed site, there is 'a
possibility of Government
defeat if the NAP also
withholds approval.
If 'this happens, since the
Opposition would, in fact, be
denying funds to the
Government this would be
considered a matter of
confidence.
It has been suggested by
the Opposition that the
Government had scored a
propaganda coup through
the appointment of Donald
Chant, co-foUnder of
Pollution Probe and Director
of the Joint Study Centre of
Toxicology at the University
of Toronto, as Chairman of
the corporation to be set up
to-develop and manage
the $60 million site near the
Grand River.
Dr. Chant has indicated
that he would have liked to

Conflict of interest
The Procedural Affairs
Committee of the Ontario
Legislature has recom-
mended that conflict of in-
terest legislation be in-
torduced to apply to all
provincial agencies; boards'
and commissions.
,Without giving names, the
committee stated in its
report to the Legislature that
"a serious conflict of interest
problem exists with the
Board of Ophthalmic
Dispensers, as with other
agencies..."
The report states that
"because agencies have
varying "arm's length"
relationships with Ontario
Government ministries,
conflict of interest rules that
may be appropriate for civil
servants may not be ap-
propriate for "independent"
agencies'''. '
The report also takes issue
with the way appointments
are made to the hundred of
agencies, boards and
commissions. These are now
channelled through a
committee of top officials
and supporters of the Con-
servative Party and con-
firmed by Order-in-Council.
While the appointments are
made public once the
decision has been made the
selection process is con-
fidential and largely hidden
from public view.

fire hall
Exeter will apparently be
paying for the addition to the
local fire hall by itself.
Council received a letter
from Stephen Township last
week indicating they were
not prepared to assist in the
capital cost, which is around
$20,000.
Exeter approved' the con-
struction, but at the same
time sent letters to the
Townships 'of Hay, Usborne
and Stephen asking for some
financial support. None has
been indicated to date.
The four municipalities
share in the operating cost of
the Exeter and Area Fire
Department on a percentage
basis and also share in some
capital costs such as equip-
ment and machinery.
However, Exeter owns the
building.
While expressing disap-
pointment at the refusal of
support from Stephen,
Reeve Don MacGregor
noted the township was in-
volved in four area fire
groups and said he couldn't
blame them for not sharing
in the capital cost of -the ad-
dition, which is nearly com-
pleted.
"We were kind of expec-
ting it (Stephen's
decision)," Councillor Lossy
Fuller admitted.
severance pay
An Oppositoon motion to
guarantee severance pay for
laid-off workers was post-
poned before it reached a
vote because of a long debate
by both oppositon parties.
After the debate, the
Minister of Labour, Dr.
Robert Elgie, asked the
Chairman of the Committee
to declare both the NDP
motion on severance pay and
a Liberal motion on ex-
tending the notice period for
laid-off workers out of order.
,Hewever, no such ruling
was made.
PADDLE PRACTICE — Anton Jaremchuk of RR 1 Ailsa Craig,
practices in his kayak in preparation for taking part in a
British Expedition in Nepal with the International Paddling
Fraternity this fall,
By JOY SCHEIFELE
What is it like to descend
1000 feet down a fast flow-
ing river, through water-
falls, in a kayals? For Anton
Jaremchuk of R.R. 1, Ailsa
" Craig, the answer simply is,
"great"!
A member of a 16 Man
British Expedition team,
Jaremchuk took part in a
venture this fall never
before accomplished by
man. The ,expedition in-
volved kayaking down the
Marsandi River in Nepal,, a
fast flowing river full of
waterfalls with an average
temperature of 32 degrees
Fahrenheit.
Long time a canoeing
enthusiast, Jaremchuk only
took up kayaking six years
ago, but he soon became a
devotee to the kayak. "You
are completely dependent on
your own skills and
decisions", he explained. "If
something doesn't work out,
you've no one else to blame
but yourself."
First practicing on rivers
in northern Ontario and
Virginia he soon took on
other challenges throughout
North America and abroad
and became a member of the
International paddling
fraternity,lheNep
al expedition was
some two years in the plan-
ning and he, along with
Michael Klugston of Toron-
to, joined the international
conquered tee Marsandi

Due to the seasonal mon-
soons careful planning found
the team in Katmandu in Oc-
tober, at the end of the
summer monsoons, "At this
time the winds are still, and
the weather predictable",
Jaremchuk explained.
Then began their 13 day
trek up the Himalayan
Range to an altitude of
17,500', no easy feat in itself.
Native guides accompanied
them to insure their safety
and help carry their boats
and other equipment.
Only four of the 16 com-
pletely made the down river
trip in a kayak. These includ-
ed Jaremchuk and Michael
Klugston of Toronto, Sam.
Crymbel and Gerry Cullins
of Ireland. The others were
responsible for filming the
expedition and caring for the
equipment. Together the
four spent the next three
weeks on the river in their
four metre, 17 lb. kayak.
When asked about the
risks involved in first time
venture he explained the im-
portance of having a
