The Exeter club seems to be hitting their peak in the playoffs as they are playing their best soccer of the season. The 2-1 victory over Wallaceburg was a complete team effort.

Exeter went to the attack first as winger $haun Rot- teau crossed the ball in front of the net which centre forward Paul Vandewalle redirected into the goal. Exeter continued to press hard but only n anaged to find two goal posts and a crossbar to leave the score at 1-0 far Exeter at the end of the first half. Exeter pressed in the second half as well but they had their hands full especially In the midfield where Wallaceburg had its strength. Wallaceburg managed to tie the score at 1 all with just 5 minutes to play. Jerry Vandewalle scored on a goal mouth scramble to leave Exeter in front 2-1.

Maja Gans had 13 points to lead thePanthersin the one- sided Contest. Deb Taylor and Leslie Hunter-Duvar each added six points in the match. which was used to test the team's new 3-2 zone defense. With most of the players getting equal time in recent games, coach Terry O'Rourke resolved not to have a "starting five". "I've decided that the starting lineup will be deter- mined by practice and game performance," O'Rourke said. Gans again led the scoring with 10 points as South Huron downed Parkhill 22-5, Wednesday. Cindy Down had a strong performance on the boards as she pulled down eight rebounds. The team has two tough, regular season contests this week. Today the girl's journey to Stratford Central and tomorrow they host Seaforth at 2:00. Thursday the goal getters were Paul Vandewalle with three and John Muller with one. Thursday against a tougher team in Lucan, Shaun Rotteau• found the mark twice while Joe Laurie scored once. Due to the fact the games were played during the week and some of the players go to University, Exeter picked up some recruits to fill in the spaces. Martin De Bruyn and George Eisenchink with plenty of soccer experience played well in filling the gaps. The club travels to Lucan Tuesday and the College comes here on Thursday night. Juniors use run and gun The South Huron junior girls basketball team trounced Clinton 64-18 in regular season action, Thursday. Utilizing a full court press, South Huron forced Clinton to turn over the ball repeatedly, with the result that the Panthers led 48-1 at the half. In the "run and gun" con- test, Brenda Bell, Jackie Cottrell and Charlene Verbeek each had 14 points. "I'm trying to get the team to set up the whole offence, but when they're having so much success without it, they don't bother". coach Pat Rowe said about the team's play. When the team faces tougher opposition, they will have to adopt a controlled offence, if they hope to have continped success. Against Parkhill, Wednes- day, Charlene Verbeek towered over the diminitive opposition to score 20 points and lead the team to a 43-21 win over the Marauders. Janet Pfaff was second in the scoring column with 12 points. The team travels to Strat- ford Central today and will host Seaforth tomorrow. "The public is welcome to attend.

Big cars, flat land impress Wales youth Three young people from a 33 member Young Farmers Exchange from Wales are spending part of their two week stay with the Bruce and Dolores Shapton family of Stephen township. Wayne and Bevan Shapton were part of an Ontario Junior Farmer visit to Wales in April of this year and are now playing host to Olwan Jones, Mark Bright and Alwyn Vaughan. Asked of their first im- pression of Canada, the Wales young people replied, "Big cars, flat land, straight roads and no fences." The size of an average farm in Wales is about 150 acres. The three visitors to Canada come from different size farms. Olwan Jones hails from a 496 farm specializing in a large sheep and beef operation, Alwyn Vaughan is from a 220 acre dairy, sheep and pigs farm and Mark Bright is from a 90 acre dairy and poultry farm. About the steep land in Wales, Wayne Shapton said, "Did you ever see plowing straight down? They use every bit of land." Bevan Shapton talked about the great scenery and then added, But it takes a half hour to go three miles around curves and up hills." Both Shapton's said they didn't try driving in Wales with steering wheels on the right hand side of the cars. Stricter car maintenance regulations are in effect in Wales with any rusty vehicles required to be repaired immediately. Penalties for impaired driving are very heavy. The visiting young people said, "We wouldn't dare drink and drive." They indicated wages were higher and prices of farm land lower in Canada. Land runs as high as 3,000 pounds per acre depending on the location. Government grants for land purchase and putting up buildings are available and vary from 30 percent in lower areas to as much as 70 percent where the land is about 1,700 feet above sea level. Licences for television sets are -in effect in Wales and cost 35 pounds for colour machines. About the economy of Wales they said, when petrol goes up everything goes up and it's now more than $4 a gallon. Wayne Shapton in talking about the roads in Wales said, "They are made for only one car. The hedges come within eight inches of the side of the roads." The visitors from Wales have been kept busy while in Ontario. Up to the weekend they had visited Niagara Falls, the Bruce nuclear station, a. sugar bush, International Plowing Match, the slide ride at Collingwood, Dominion Road Machinery and a chicken and dairy farm. They intended to stay at the Shapton farm Monday and Bruce Shapton suggested, "We are cutting corn and I have a hoe for each of them." • For the balance of the week it's off to Cuddy's in Strathroy, the Petrolia Oil Museum, Martin's Tile Yards, the University of Guelph, a demonstration and barbecue at Vincent's Farm Equipment in Seaforth, the Mennonite settlements near Elmira, the Kitchener Stockyards and F'armer's Market and the CNE Tower and Eaton's Centre in Toronto. They will be leaving fot home from Toronto airport at 9 a.m. Saturday. Under Bill 82 Times -Advocate, October 7, 1981 P.. 17 Less control exceptional child by Stephanie Le vesque Teachers will have less control in the placement of an exceptional child under the special education policy (Bill 82), elementary school teachers found out at a fall conference of Region One of the Women Teachers' Assoication of Ontario held here. Elementary school teachers from Oxford, Wind- sor, Huron, Perth and all points in between were told at the conference held on Saturday the ramifications to them from the implemen- tation of Bill 82. Mary Howarth, executive assistant for the Federation of Women Teachers, from Toronto. said in her opinion, "Bill 82 is, in a way, a transfer of power". She said she assumed it was percieved that schools had too much power in regards to the placing of ex- ceptional children. "Now greater power has been accorded to the parent and child," said Mrs. Howarth. She noted that per- sons 18 years of age and over can make a decision on their placement. Mrs. Howarth had explain- ed the background of Bill 82 at a conference held this past summer. She told the teachers pre- sent they will still recom- mend to principals a child who may need to be iden- tified as an exceptional stu- dent. The parents are also able to do this. From there, the case goes to the Identification, Place- ment and review Com- mittee which does as its name suggests. It identifies any exceptionalities, places the student and reviews an- nually the prescribed place- ment if any. Mrs. Howarth explained there are routes parents may take if they wish to appeal any decision made by the IPRC. and the school board may also make an appeal, but at no time may the teacher make an appeal. "To me its an imbalance," said Mrs. Howarth. She explained if a teacher did not agree with the place- ment of a student, there is nothing they could do. She said tecahers,would assist in the beginning as the child's exceptionalities were being identified, by doing assessments on the child. She told the teachers the appeal route involves tribunals at several levels, with the minister of educa- tion having the last word. During the conference, the teachers attended numerous workshops held at the Ex- eter Public School, with Mrs. Howarth's presentation concluding the conference.
