Hodgins Bantams, midgets take lead in first provincial playoff Monday night the Lucan Ho- Jo's hosted Parkhill and in a penalty filled game the visiting team skated to a 9-3 victory. Lucan opened the scoring early in the game when Bob liacDonald put a backhand shot past othe Parkhill goalie with Brian Haskett and Don Henderson assisting. Parkhill came roaring back with three goals before the end of the first .period. The first goal of the second period was scored by Parkhill, only to have Jim Hearn score an unassisted effort to pull within two goals of the leaders. However, two Parkhill goals before the end of the period in- sured the victory for the visitors. The scoring pattern in the third was the same as in the second with Jim Hearn getting his second goal of the night with Ron Lindenfield assisting. Junior "D" The last week of the Western Junior "D" League was somewhat puzzling due to the new format in playoffs. In a league meeting the first place finishers, the Belmont Green Giants, chose to play Lucan as their first choice and Exeter as their second. However, if Lucan finished in third place Belmont would play Exeter. Exeter had a chance to clinchthird place when they hosted Seaforth but were defeated 4-3, thus putting Seaforth a point ahead of Lucan for the battle of third place. Wednesday night in a close, high scoring game Lucan edged Seaforth by a 7-6 score with Mike McIntyre leading the way with two goals while singles went to Brian McNeil, Brad England. Jim Maguire, Ron Funston and Randy Kraul. Saturday night Lucan travelled to Belmont and needed a victory to finish in third place. The Irish turned in ,a fine -two way per- formance and led 3-0 after the first period only to have Belmont close to within one goal with the only two goals of the second period. In the third period Lucan scored first to open a two goal margin only to have Belmont pull within one. Once again Lucan took a two goal advantage with Jim Maguire scoring, which proved to be the eventual winning goal as Belmont fell short and Lucan upset the league leaders 5- 4 to clinch third place.

This is what Ontario is doing to protect you. There are basic common sense rules for buying and selling. Unfortunately, people don't always know these rules or follow them, and that allows unscrupulous sellers to take advantage of people. Common sense is your best defence. But you have another defender, too. Two pieces of legislation have been passed by your On- tario Government in order to help you. The Consumer Protection Act is designed to protect you from problems that may arise when you buy goods or services, or borrow money. It is administered by the Consumer Protection Bureau, which also handles complaints and inquiries about question- able business practices, and it controls: • registration of itinerant sellers (i.e., door- to-door salesmen) • contracts over $50 where delivery of goods, services or payment has not been completed • full disclosure of credit terms • special discounts for getting friends to buy (referral selling) • unsolicited goods (including unsolicited credit cards) • false or misleading advertising • penalties for offences The Consumer Reporting Act is another law designed to protect you. It gives you the right to know what credit and personal in- formation about you is on file with com- panies, and an opportunity to have inaccu- racies corrected, and prohibits consumer reporting agencies from using information unless it is stored in Canada. According to this Act, you are entitled to request in writ- ing that the contents of your file and the sources of information be disclosed to you. Your Ontario Government has also pre- pared two easy -to -understand booklets that describe the Consumer Protection Act and the Consumer Reporting Act. The book- lets explain these two important Ontario laws more fully.
