I THINK WE HAVE
THE BEST DEAL IN
HURON COUNTY.
I didn't say the cheapest; I
said the best.
I think we sell the best heat-
ing and air conditioning
equipment, and have the
most qualified people select-
ing, designing and installing
it, and that we provide the
finest after -market service. In
short, I think we're the best.
So when it's your turn to
think about improving your
home comfort system, give
serious thought to buying it
from us, rather than from
some other smooth -talking
rascal.
I'm not sure I care much for
the structure of that last par-
agraph, but I'm not going to
re -type it.

may be on the increase if more par-
ticipants can be attracted to the
sport.
"We'd like to increase that (regis-
tration) by 20 or 30 percent, if we
can," said Miners.
The Exeter league began eight
years ago with 16 players. But last
year, the 72 players ranged in age
from 5 to 17. Miners said that with
enough interest it may be possible
to divide the 7-9 year old Novice
group into two teams: Bunny (7
and under) and Novice (8-9). Min-
ers said a less -competitive Bunny
team would better serve as a train-
ing ground for younger players to
learn the sport before moving up to
higher levels of competition.
Miners suspects there may be
many girls in the area who are no
longer interested in figure skating
and may want to join a team sport.
If the transition from figure skates
to hockey -style skates can be made,
then Ringette is an obvious choice.
Some girls from the Exeter Asso-
ciation have gone on to the highest
level of Ringette competition avail-
able in Canada by joining London's
AA team.
"There's room for advancement if
you can go," said Miners.
I est season's successes for Exeter
teams in tournaments and league
play is beginning to call attention to
the local teams.
lit
"We're starting to put Exeter on
the map as far as ringette is con-
cerned," said Miners. "We're basi-
cally at the stage where minor
hockey was in Exeter 25 years
ago."
Exeter competes in the Huron -
Perth League against teams from
St. Marys, Stratford, Goderich,
Mitchell, and Forest. There is hope
that a team from Clinton will be
joining the league this season.
Saturday's introduction and ex-
planation of the strategy and rules
of Ringette will be followed by reg-
istration sessions this week. Girls
will be able to sign up on Thursday
from 5-7 p.m. at the Hensall arena,
and Saturday from 12-4 p.m.
