Panthers thump By Michelle Ellison South Huron's Senior football team thumped Stratford Central 36- 6 on Thursday in their first league game of the season. Panthers domi- nated the whole game. The team showed their potential from the first quarter of the game when Jeff Den Otter received a 50 - yard pass from quarterback Harlen Tinney and got his first touchdown of the game. John O'Connor kicked the convert for South Huron. - Den'Otter then proceeded to run in three mord touchdowns before the last quarter, all followed by con- verts kicked by O'Connor. During the fourth quarter, Den Otter received a 35 yard pass from Tinney to run in his fifth touch- down of the game. Once again the convert was kicked by O'Connor. Unfortunately, in the fourth quar- ter, the defence, which played ex- ceptionally well for three quarters, got a little slack on pass coverage and allowed Central to complete three passes in a row for a touch- down. O'Connor then kicked a wide field goal for a single point to make up the final score. Tinney, in his first senior game as quarterback, turned in a great per- - formance. He completed seven of nine passes for a total of 191 yards with no interceptions as well as two touchdowns. Den Otter also played an outstanding game. He scored five touchdowns, had nine carries for a total of 95 yards and caught three passes. Coach Ron Bogart felt everyone did a good job. "We played crisp, touch, football Stratford for the whole game, except the last one and a half minutes when we had a bit of a minor setback." Panthers meet Goderich atrS,outh Huron next Thursday.

But there is nothing crazy about Chanyi. In fact, for those who spend thousands of dollars in the constant battle for fitness, it might be crazy not to follow her lead. Power walking. It's an activity which combines the benefit of aerobics and the pleasure of a stroll in the park. There arc no bad side-effects like shin-splints and it can be tailored to anyone's speed. "There's no bounce," Chanyi says. "There's no impact to it what- soever. "Power walking is something you can do on your own. You don't need a class (to attend) once you know the basics. - "And this way, if you 'feel any- thing straining, you slow it down." Chanyi got involved in power walking in Alberta when she and a friend started a class after taking a course at the University of Leth- bridge. The activity took off and the class swelled to 60 members. -- "When I went to the first class (at the university), I had been in aero- bics for a year and 1 thought I was in pretty good shape," Chanyi re- members, noting there were people in their 60's who were better at the activity. Ideal for elderly people or those who are obese as well as people who just want to stay in good con- dition, power walking is just what it sounds like. Using hand -weights and, in Chanyi's case, ankle weights, the idea is to walk while you workout by moving your arms in various patterns. "All this is is walking, but it's totally a cardiovascular workout. And it's cheap," Chanyi says, pointing out fitness clubs or aero- bic programs can be costly. It can be done on the street or in the house. "There arc some steps that look a little strange," she concedes. "1 try to do it in the dark." Though power walking is com- monplace in the west, people around here react in different ways to the unusual form of exercise. "1 found the funniest thing -- when I'm out with my arms going, people wave -- they think I'm wav- ing." POWER WALKING - M. J. Chanyi has found the ideal way to stay i Since returning from Alberta two shape without spending a fortune. Above she demonstrates one of th years ago, Chanyi has discovered many variations of the activity. that power walking is an ideal way to keep fit when you're short on time. Acting president of the Exeter Curling Club, Chanyi is also tak- ing real estate courses to beef up her selling powers. In between that, she has helped to design two hous- es, the second of which the Chanyi family now lives in on Sanders Street in Exeter.
