The birds and squirrels at Clan Gregor Square in
Bayfield will be well-fed all winter, thanks to
abundance of corn, spilled on Highway 21 on
Monday morning. The overturned truck was
righted and Most of its load cleaned up. (Bud

Tons of corn spill
A Huron Grain tran-
sport careened around
the infamous Highway 21
curve at Clan Gregor
Square and spilled its
load of- corn on Monday
morning. The northbound
tractor trailer crossed
the highway into the west
lane and spewed coun-
tless tons of corn onto the
road surface.
No injuries were
reported, however a
southbound stationwagon
which happened onto the
turn at the same time,
narrowly missed being
squashed as the trailer
upset. The station wagon
driver escaped with a
good scare and a broken
tail -light on his car.
Traffic was backed up
for a considerable time
after the 9:30 a.m. ac-
ci:dent, and eventually
had to be rerouted around
the square. Cleanup
operations were, per-
formed by the M.T.C. and
Gary Triebnor of
Bayfield. The O.P.P.
investigated the mishap.

uckeyes down Hensall with 8 goals
The Zurich Buckeyes
broke out of their slump
on Thursday evening, as
they travelled to Hensall
and drubbed the
hometown Sherwoods by
an 8 - 2 score.
:Early in the first
period, John Graham
shot from the blueline
and Steve Bedour
deflected the puck into
the Hensall net to give the
Bucks the lead. Kim
McKinnon found himself
all alone in front for the
second Zurich goal and
Kerry Bedard rounded
out the first period
scoring when he stick -
handled through the
entire Hensall team to up
the count to 3 - 0.

Tuesday night was such a great night for walking,
that I took a stroll through the village and' thought,
and thunk and thinked. The solitary thing that came
..tomind was the recent Liberal budget that
demented and priggish politicians larding away in
more than a piffling document put forth by
demented and prgish politicians larding away in
the nation's capital. So they're going to tax booze,
tobacco and gas again. It is unfortunate that our
elected officials could not come up with something
a little more original.
Last season's Tory budget stunk as well, but at
least they were going to try and bill us on photo
finishing and like things as well as the standard
trio.
The budget was Mickey Mouse! How long can
Parliament continue to make a mockery of its
country's intelligence? With a majority in power...a
long, long time.
That brings us to this week's definitive problem.
They're taxing ale another three cents a case. That
is unheard of! Well it isn't unheard of, but it is a
kick in the pants.
Panicking, me and the Rumbler wondered if we
shouldn't rent a U -Haul and lay in a winter's supply
of 1- ifties before the price-fnereasc took effect? But -
alas and alack, the key was to find an alternate
energy source,. I know because I heard the Finance
Minister say that!
Quickly we ripped to the nearest orchard and
layed our hands on a jug of apple cider. After
consuming several flagons of this nectar we sat
around waiting for something to happen...and it
did! Sitting like kings upon a throne we shouted our
battle cry.
Thirty-one days hath November
Long enough for a four-week bender.
The -apples that made the trees abound,
Are laying now on the ground.
So cider days are here my dear,
Forget the whiskey, wine and beer?
Grind that pulp and press that mash,
And soon enough, we'll all get smashed!
Smashed realty wasn't the word for what hap-
pened to me and the Rumbler. In fact, for a measly
three cents a case, we're switching to BUCKEYE!
We fell into a ring of fire

period.

killing then ' resulted in
Hensall's second goal
with Kerry Bedard sitting
out a minor. Pat Bedard
picked up his second goal
of the night on a pass
from Gerald Weido, to
round out the scoring and
give the Bucks a much
needed victory
The referee called 28
minor penalties, with 16
going to Zurich and 12 to
Hensall. The Sherwoods
were also assessed a 10
minute misconduct for
unsportsmanlike con-
duct.

Tom S.teeperl after Chris
Bedard had 'set up the
play with some dazzling
skating while playing
shorthanded. The Bucks

goal as Glen Nicholson
fed Ron Rader in the
corner who slid the puck
,out to Marvin
'Millimetre' Merner,
standing alone ' at the
crease. Zurich then took a
4 - 1 lead when Gerald
Weido backhanded an
errant Parkhill pass into
the net. From that point
on. the Merchants took
control of the period and
came back to score 4
unanswered goals and
take a 5 - 4 lead. The
Zurich skaters appeared
tired late in the period
after' taking a physical
pounding - from the
Parkhill 'goon squad' for°
some 40 minutes. The
Buckeyes only had 11

one goaltender.
