The second half of the season for South 1 iuron saw the locals close the gap on the competition, after having suffered more sound defeats prior to Christmas. This showed the increased confidence that the young team found in their defensive skills and shooting. The starting lineup will return next season with the notable exception of forward Mark Lynn whose intelligent play and rebounding will be missed. The returning players have been sent to the off-season with lots of expe- rience to help them get prepared for the next campaign. More variety in playmaking, combined with maintaining a team attitude toward offence will be the highlights of the new season. This year there was a lot of improvement in shooting and ball control, and the team is expected to be among the top three 'schools in the entire Huron -Perth next year. Junior hoopers beaten GODERICH - On Thursday, the South Huron District High School jun- ior boys basketball team travelled to Goderich where they took on the Vi- kings in the Huron Conference semi-final. These two teams were closely matched all season and this one could have gone either way but in the end, it was the hosts winning 50-36. The juniors had a fairly good season winning three of their eight regular season games and were in two tournaments. Midgets second best GODERICH - The midget hoopers played the season final tournament in Goderich recently. In the first game against Central Huron, the Panthers easily won causing few turnovers and making a few steals to win. Steve Coleman had several key rebounds and netted nine points in a 41-38 win. The second game was not to be a winning won for South Huron as they lost 54-26 to finish second in the Huron Conference. Special thanks to Keith Crawford, Wayne Robinson and Aaron Bayer for helping to coach this year's team.

Last year, the Ministry of Natural Resources changed the form of the controlled deer hunt in Lambton County after extensive public con- sultation. The new hunt addressed local residents' concerns about crop damage by browsing deer, the fre- quency of deer -vehicle accidents along Highway 21, and the effects of deer browsing and trampling on sensitive vegetation in Pinery Pro- vincial Park. Several aspects of the hunt were unique. For example, the terms and conditions for the hunt required participants to obtain landowner permission before even applying for the hunt. Hunters authorized to participate in the hunt received two validation tags allowing them to take two deer. As well, hunting with shot guns or muzzle loaders was permitted over seven weekly seasons between September 19 and December 19 which alternated with archery only seasons. Hunters who received validation tags for the special hunt were re- quired to complete and return man- datory reports about their hunting activity. The hunt occurred within the spe- cially created wildlife management sub -unit 93C. This sub -unit com- prises an area generally defined by Highway 21 to the west, the Ausa- ble River cut to the south, and Riv- er Road and Klondyke Road to the east. Preliminary data from 87 percent of mandatory reports received showed: • 65 landowners gave hunting ac- cess privileges to the 203 hunters who applied for the hunt. • Of 176 hunters reporting, 154 (88 percent)'actually hunted. • 5,744 hours were spent hunting (37 hours per hunter). • 116 deer were killed: 10 female fawns, 16 male fawns 45 does and 44 bucks. • The distribution of the deer har- vest across hunting periods was:•2+6 percent during September 19-26, 14 percent during October MO, it percent during October 17-24. 10 percent during October 31 - November 7, 15 percent during No- vember 14-21, 2 percent during No- vember 30 -December 3, and 20 percent during December 12-19. • 38 hunters took a second deer and 78 hunters accounted for alf'the deer taken. • 76 hunters (49 percent did not take a deer. However, hunters saw an average of eight deer each.
