Vice-president Pam Waters opened the meeting with the 4-11 pledge. Eight of the nine members were pre- sent. All the members had to tell what they had learned from this project for roll call. Then we asked some questions and found out that the achievement day will be held on November 24 at Prince Andrew School at 7:30 p.m. We then talked about the four basic foods and judged some menus which some peo- ple didn't like. The judging was bas- ed on the Canadian food group, their limited use of nutrients and how they looked. After the meeting we tried some homemade ice-cream which everyone liked. Next week on November 13 we are going to meet at Elenora Kop's home to work on the board. We would like to thank Deanna Beatson and Mavis Harmsworth for leading and Deanna Beatson for • glding the meeting. Fran Harrett, secretary Church News At the United Church the Rev.

To get ball rolling HensaII .PUC meets with council PUC commissioners Harold Knight and Gary Maxwell and PUC manager Lorne Archer attended the November meeting of Hensall council to ask for a joint meeting with council, Steve Burns from B.M. Ross and Associates and representatives from the ministry of the environment to "get the ball rolling" on short-term and Long-range plans, No action has yet been taken on a water works study done by the Ross engineering firm in 1979. A reconstruction program planned for Mill and Wellington streets should also take into consideration the fact the village's water system is about 50 years old, and the old lead pipes could most easily be replaced when the street is being torn up. Knight said the PUC could not make any future plans until they find out what grants are available for pro- posed projects. Clerk Betty Oke said that applica- tion for subsidies should be made before the end of the year. A November 24 date was set for the joint meeting. The First Hensall Scouts Movement will be nominated for the ABCA group conservation award in recognition of their tree -plantings in the ABCA watershed. Tenders will be called for December 3 for approved renovations to the council chamber. The lowest or any bid will not necessarily be accepted.

Dear Editor: Regarding the letter sent by Darryl Little to the editor of the Goderich Signal -Star about the Goderich- Exeter Senior football final game: I attended the football game, and with several other Goderich fans had a good view from the top row of the bleachers. Mr. Little's viewpoint must have been considerably poorer for him to obtain such a distorted perception of the fight which he described. Unfortunately, it is true that two Goderich fans did start throwing debris, but that is one of the few ac- curate points in Mr. Little's account. It was the South Huron girls, who, when "objecting", used foul language ---not the "Goderich lads." After these rude comments, the two fans stopped throwing things. However, a South Huron fan who was standing beside the girls (who was, judging by his previous conduct, intoxicated) decided to inflate what could have been a very minor inci- dent, and began pushing his way up into the stands. When a Goderich fan stood his ground, the South Huron fan pushed him off the bleachers and began punching him. Fans from both schools then joined in, and though some of them were on- ly trying to break it up, others were in a rowdy mood and wanted to fight whatever the excuse. The Goderich fans who started things off with their inappropriate behaviour definitely owe an apology, and on their behalf I'd like to apologize to the Exeter spectators for any unpleasantness they endured as a result. However, the conduct of the South Huron fan who chose to turn the incident into fight is equally inex- cusable. Both parties were at fault. I'd like to send out an appeal to the students of both schools to contain the rivalry to the playing field at game times and to allow the players on the teams to decide who has supremacy in their sport. While there are certain elements in both schools who would rather fight in the stands than cheer for their team, it is partly the respon- sibility of the more reasonable and mature students to try to control this violent behaviour so that thew* Goderich-Exeter games can once more be enjoyable rather than dangerous for the spectators. Let's not have any more of these foolish and embarrassing incidents. Sincerely, Lynne Starkey 4-H girls name dessert Exeter no. 1 4-H club's fifth meeting was held on October 22 at Mrs. DeBoer's house. We did the 4-11 pledge and then did roll call which was on "Name a dessert made with ice cream". We talked over the articles and answered all the questions.
