CYCLONES 0
Cyclones need to get a
schedule so they can at least
know what time their games
are. Someone please give
them a "call" or something.
However, Par Line played
their best game ever as "no"
errors were made all night
during their "1" minute game
and score was I-0. Wow,
what performance by this
team as Matt Townsend
breaks down centre ice and
shoots, with only him by
himself he scores a dynamite
goal.
POLAR ICE 1
PARR LINE LADIES 3
Polar Ice goes "wild" as
Cindy Moore scores a quick
shot and into the net, great
pass from Darlene Smith.
Oops! Parr Line pulls Up
their socks and starts accu-
mulating a few more goals to
take the lead, goals were
scored by who! Oh! her -
Christine Kay also Glenda
Chaput and Cheryl Kruse.
Nice to have you out "Kuss".

steady pace.

This definitely was "not"
the Knights game as you can
see by the score. Their lonely
goal was achieved by

Royals were keen and full
of energy but came up a little
short on goals: They held or
rather their goalie held the
Dumpers to a low scoring
game. Kecp up the great
work Rob Dearing. Dumpers
getting a little frustrated as
only two goals were scored.
Steve Eckert Jr. and Steve
Mclnally were the two fortu-
nate fellows to knabb up a
goal each, assisted by Kevin
Van Den Ncuker, John
Cairns, Jo. ry Wright and

RAIDERS 1 GRADS 3
OK! Raiders keep up thc
steady pace as Jack Holmes
shoots from the blue line and
blows the ballpast the oppos-
ing goalie. Great defensive
help from Dave Kramers and
Sean Schrader. I think the
Grads are getting a little pan-
icky as the Raiders tie game
up. The Grads start to put the
pressure on and pull ahead as
goals are scored by Jerry
Burtch, Tony Van Den
Heuvel and. Al Wynja, quick
passes from Mac O'Neil and
Raymond Ruston.

Talk not fruitful for funding reform
Stop talking about funding
reform and do something
preferably
That is the gist of the Huron
County Board of Education's
response to the Ontario edu-
cation ministry's discussion
paper on a new funding
model.
"There is a need to stop
refining new funding models
and a desperate need to
implement one of those fund-
ing models with a mechanism
for the redistribution of rev-
enues," states the Huron
board's official response for-
warded Oct. 10 by Chair
Roxanne Brown.
The board press release
identifies three key funding
issues for rural boards:
• "All boards have special
circumstances. Huron has
transportation across as geo-
graphically dispersed county,
and 'special' special educa-
tion costs which are dispro-
portionately higher than
many other boards due to
'parachute' students versus
Metro with ESL challenges
and breakfast programs."
• "Currently there is a
spread of some 30 percent
between high and low spend-
ing boards, with arguably as
good, if not better; education
being delivered in the lower
spending boards such as
Huron."
• "Regression analysis
demonstrates the correlation
between spending and assess-
ment wealth, so we can say
that boards' spending is dri-
ven by equalized, property
assessment wealth. Compare
the commercial -industrial
wealth at the intersection of
Bay and King in downtown
Toronto with the head offices
of All the chartered banks
compared to the very little
commercial industrial wealth
in rural areas like Huron
County."
The board's press release
says it identifies with one key
recent statement by the.
province's education minis=
ter; "It is spending beyond
our means, not underfunding,
that threatens the future of
Ontario students:
"We in Huron," it continues
"believe that the high spend-
ing hoards . should -come
down to the level of the low
spending hoards. The way to
'get at' the spending- is
through.a redistribution .of
revenue.
"We suggest an equitable
distribution of standardized
property assessment - such as
pooling of all commercial I
assessment with redistribu-
tion of a per -pupil basis.
"There is a need to recog-
nize the time constraints and
finalize the current model
with, most importantly, a
redistribution of property
assessment."

BY AMY NEILANDS
The Huron County Board of
Education could he facing
over $3 million in funding
decreases from the province
in 1997.
"We are in a good position
to deal with this challenge,"
said Director of Education
Paul Carroll at the Oct. 7
board meeting. But with the
present funding system,
"property taxpayers arc still
not getting off the hook."
A report from the director
said that there have been indi-
cations that another $600 mil-
s still on the hook
lion to $900 million could be
cut from .Ontario funding for
education in 1997.
Recent information indi-
cates that Huron's share of the
reductions could total
between $3 to 3.5 million.
The board also anticipates
further downloading through
the standard (provincial) mill
rate changes and decreases in
per pupil amounts. The annu-

He died in 1995.
"Throughout his life John
quietly undertook numerous
environmental projects," a
press release from Maitland
foundation states. "On his
" own farm he reforested mar-
ginal lands, created ponds for
fish and waterfowl, and
implemented soil and water
conservation techniques.
"Over the years he extend-

marijuana eradication pro- marijuana plants were found

ipated the total impact for
Huron to range from $4-5
million.
In anticipation of the fund-
• ing cuts, the board has been
able to implement agreements
on staffing which should
result in annual salary savings
of about $1 million in each
panel in fiscal 1997, Carroll's
report stated. "Further consid-
eration must be given to bal-
ancing the remaining grant
reduction between additional

increases in thc 1997 expen-
ditures and the amount that
would be asked of thc local
Huron taxpayer," the report
stated.
