Boating tips
We recently received a press release from the On-
tario Provincial Police office in Mount Forest listing a
number of boating safety tips.
We will pass these on to our readers and hope they
are helpful in making this summer of boating a safe
one for everyone.
First come the DO's.
Head for the nearest safe anchorage or landing
when a storm threatens and avoid the temptation to
buck it.
Obey' the regulations regarding life saving equip-
ment: under the Small Vessel Regulations. vessels not
over 5.5 metres long. one approved small vessel life
jacket or approved PFD or life saving cushion for
-each person on board.
Assist any boat in distress: the vertical circular
waving motion of a piece of light-coloured material or
of a light at night is a distinctive distress signal.
Slow down when passing dredges or water where
divers may be working.
Slow down when making sharp turns in bad
`w.eather.-_ -... _ _.
Slow down when passing rowboats and canoes. es-
pecially in narrow waters.
Learn the rules of the road and practice them.
When operating at night. carry a few red flares in
a watertight container.
Keep the bilges of the boat clean and free from oil.
gasoline .and rags. Vent any enclosed areas into the
open air.
Check the battery and its ventilation.
Respect your.boat and know its limitations.
Obey the regulations regarding fire precautions
and fire extinguishing equipment. If the vessel is
equipped with an inboard motor, permanently fixed or
built in fuel tanks or a cooking or heating appliance
which burns liquid or gaseous fuel. it must be
equipped with a Class B1 fire extinguisher.
Carry an anchor and a -sufficient length of sound
cable. rope or chain. at least five times the average
anchorage depth. Be sure that the inboard end of the
line is fastened securely to the boat.
Keep some spare clothing in a water tight plastic
bag. plus a flashlight. whistle. knife. first aid kit and
emergency rations.
Now for the inportant,DONT's!
Stand up or change seats in a small boat. par-
ticularly when it is fully loaded. If it's necessary to
move. crouch low and keep the weight on the boat's
centre -line. holding onto both gunwales.
Stand up when starting an outboard iotor.
Operate near swimmers.
Mix liquor and boating.
t'se a leaky or poorly built boat.
Cruise fast enough to create a dangerous swell
when, near small boats.
Throw garbage overboard.
Wait until the last minute to signify your inten-
tions of obeying the rules of the road.
Anchor close to other boats.
Hold impromptu races with other boats. because
row boats. canoes and other small craft are en-
dangered by the wash.
Attempt to swim ashore if your boat capsizes or is
swamped. hang onto the boat until you are picked up.
Be a -show-off. •
Buzz bathing beaches: swinRners are hard to see
in the water

others in your vicinity and also cause bank erosion and

Big attraction
Mark Tuesday. August 3 on your sporting
calendar That's the night. the California Cuties will
be in Exeter to meet the Exeter rec league all-stars in
an exhibition fastball game.
The game is being sponsored by the Crescent
Rolls of the rec league but the local team will be made
up of two players of each of the nine teams
We have seen the Cuties in action on previous oc-
casions and they do provide excellent entertainment
Some of their plays may not be entirely sanctioned by
fellow's like Sparky. Anderson or Gene Mauch. but.
they are good for a few laughs
Tip•of the golf hat
. Two recent performances at the Ironwood golf .
course are worth mentioning
Late in June. 14 year-old John Mol shot a hole -in -
one from the fourth tee and Tuesday Steve Pearce tied
the Ironwood nine hole course record with a 33.
Pearce at the age of 16 now shares the course
record set a couple of years ago by Glenn Kadechuk.
On the subject of golf we hear from a birdie and
it's not the kind +.Mat most golfers like to get that our
esteemed mayor may give up.golf after Saturday .-
Last call for camp.
A• ny area youngsters wishing to attend Boom's
Recreation Camp to be held near Goderich sh��t1ld get
their application forms filled out as soon -as possf e.

Slow response
The Detroit Tigers have been very slow to come to
life as was expected for new manager Sparky Ander-
son.
One thing positive Anderson has done to date is to
get more of a running game for his club. Saturday.
John Wockenfuss stole a base for the first time in his
career.
Six local fans travelled to Tiger Stadium Sunday
to see the Tigers blank Chicago 1-0. They were Bob
and Jim Russell. Harold Wolfe, Howard-Holtzmalm,
Gerry Webb and the Yankee Clipper Gerry Smith.
