Home My WebLink AboutThe Wingham Advance-Times, 1972-12-14, Page 20Page ,10 -The Wingham Advance-Trtines, Thursday, Dec•A4, 1972 Belgrave bombs Monkton 9-1 Belgrave Intermediates swung into action on their first game of the season in Tri -County Inter - Mediate action on Wednesday of last week by dumping their Monkton counterparts by a score of 9 to .1, The first period saw only one goal scored as both teams were cautiously feeling each other out. That goal was scored on a high, fast shot :from the blueline over the shoulder of the Monkton goalie, off the stick of defence- man Ken Henry,, on a fine pass- out from Grant Coultes. The first period saw one , trip- ping penalty to each team, Grant Coultes of Belgrave and B. Mc- Lean of Monkton. In the second period Belgrave outscored' Monkton 3 to 0 with credit for two going to Neil Bie- man and one scored by Niel Ed- gar. Assisting on these goals were Niel Edgar, Lloyd Michie, Larry Robinson and Jim English: Penalties in the second period went to Michie and Robinson. of Belgrave and K. McLean, J. Gaul, P. Worth and B. McLean of Monkton. Due to persistent checking by Belgrave and failing goal -keep- ing by Monkton, Belgrave was able to out -score Monkton by 5 to 1 in the third period. Belgrave point -getters! Bob Pegg from Grant Coultes and, Brian Black; Grant Coultes from Brian Black; Brian Coultes from Fraser Strong ; Larry Robinson from Lloyd Michie; Grant Coultes from Brian Black and Lloyd Michie. The lone goal by Monkton was scored by J. Gaul from K. Pes- ten. Penalties in the third period went to Jim. English and Larry Robinson of Belgrave, K. Mc- Lean of Monkon. Points of. Interest: After a scram'bly start Belgrave settled down to a close -checking game, taking advantage of every oppor- tunity. Belgrave forward lines played a good end-to-end game and with a little luck could have had a' few .more goals. • Wayne Coultes and Keith El- ston gave steady goal -keeping to Belgrave although called upon to stop only approximately 18 shots, some of those being very hard. The goal by Brian Coultes was scored on a blistering slap -shot. from centre ice. Topstar of the game would have too to Belrave's Grant CoultesrwhEitriot bitly! Savreit'tfie most points with two goals and two assists but centered two sep- arate lines due to a shortage of players. Congratulations to Belgrave on winning their first game of the Season and best of luck in the forthcoming schedule.

Mexico ( more exactly the. United Mexican States) is bogund- ed by the USA on the north and by Guatemala and Belice on the south. It is a federated republic consisting of 29 states, two Fed- eral Territories and the Federal District, which contains the na- tion's capital, Mexico City. Among the Latin Americajl na- tions, Mexico is the second larg- est in terms of population (45,- 671,000.) and the third largest in area (761,600 square miles) . Al- though Mexico is one-fijth the size of the USA cosmopolitan Mexico City is the world's sixth largest city (7,000,000). Dynamic • present-day Mexico is the spiritual and aesthetic heir to two great cultural legacies: the pre-Columbian Indian and the Spanish Colonial. The Olmec (1'00 B.C.-600 B.C.) and the Teoti- huacana (1 A.D. to the 9th cen- tury) civilizations were the seed cultures for the later Maya, Tol- tec, totonac, Mextec, Zapotec and Aztec civilizations which pro- duced the magnificent cities and, culturalcentres of Tula, Pal- enque, Mitla and many others which are still undiscovered. One of the great delights of a visit to Mexico is the discovery of - a terrain, a culture and a people so different from those of its northern neighbors ... and yet so hospitable. Courtesy is deeply en- grained in the pattern of • life there, combined with a warm and lively response to visitors who show a genuine interest in Mexi- co. Unlike many other -nationali- ties, Mexicans do not make fun of foreigners' attempts tospeak their language, but take them as friendly gestures and react ac- cordingly. "Por favor" when you're asking a question or mak- ing a request and "gracias" • - afterward will go a long way to- ward establishing you as a`wel- come visitor. - • English Spoken If foreign languages come easy to you, you will learn the Spanish words and phrases for what you want,•b01t tti; lty dined �' M sary. English is spoken widely, particularly, among the people whom as a tourist you will en- counter .most. frequeptly, and the ready hospitality extends to Spanish-speaking and non -Span- ish speaking visitors alike. How you take advantage of this to en- rich your travel experience, to add a rewarding human ex- change to the other benefits of your trip to Mexico, depends on. your own good taste and,interest. Familiarity with certain. basic Mexican customs and attitudes, however, will help you not only to savour the differences but also to enjoy your role asWg uest. in 'the country and as an unofficial am- bassador of Canada. .Mexico has made tremendous progress with its industrializa- tion program in the last two dec- ades (it is Latina America's fast-. est -developing nation) but prices for most orthe things you want to see, do and buy are still well be-, low what you would pay in Can- ada -indeed, this is one of the great advantages of a trip to Mexico. Mexicans use the $ sign 'for • pesos, sometimes adding M.N. (Moneda Nacional) after the number, so don't be upset at what first glance may look like an impossibly high price. The ex- change is 11.53 pesos to the Cana- dian dollar, meaning a peso is worth about eight and two-thirds cents Canadian. Don't treat the prices and currency as ridicu- lously low. They are just as meaningful for the Mexican as dollars are for norteamericanos. Enjoy your bargains without be- ing ostentatious about it or seem- ing to flaunt your wealth, and the Mexican will enjoy the trans- action as much as you do. While Mexicans are just as businesslike in their dealings as norteamericanos, the amenities are as important to their business • relationships as they are to social qccasions. Both men and women usually shake hands on meeting, and close friends will embrace each other with a warm and hearty "abrazo". Every business meeting begins with a few words of casaial, conversation. If you want; to do business in Mexico, don't launch into the business immediately, it's considered brusque, if not downright rude. Continent on your pleasure at be- ing in Mexico or inquire about the family of your host, if you know them. The forms are maintained even when you get down to the business of the meeting. Mexi- cans never remove their coats, loosen their ties, or roll up their sleeves, no matter how long, friendly or heated the discussion may turn out to be. National Food Throughout Mexico, but par- ticularly in Mexico City and other major cities, there is the widest choice of restaurant cuisine, ranging from typically Mexican dishes through continental cuis- ine to Chinese and Kosher food. Many visitors find to their sur- prise that not all Mexican food is "hot" and that tortillas and ta- males are no more the. sum of the country's cuisine than - hot dogs and hamburgers are of Canadian menus. Some dishes are spicy. In all there are some 4,000 different native Mexican dishes. The tor- tilla, a thin flat pancake made of ground corn, is the foundation for dishes like • tacos, a snack of shredded meat, cheese, eggs or vegetables folded into a. tortilla and fried, and enchiladas, tor- tillas filled with meat or cheese and cooked , in a tomato sauce. Tamales vary from section to section ui oke country LAIL basically consist of cornmeal wrapped around meat, chicken, chili, etc. • Nightlife in Mexico may be as glamorous as a Mexico City sup- per chili or assimple as a band concert in, a village square, but everywhere it will involvemusic, 'from up-to-the-minute rock and roll to the Mexican tunes of mari- achis, those groups of trouba- dours in braid -trimmed costumes and .broad sombreros who play melodies lqud and lively or sweet and,srttial , q .:-oma;,, 1; .trumpets and violins. .In Mexico, Acapulco and other major cities there are large, colorful nightclubs and hotel sup= per clubs featuring entertain- ment• that is either internation- al or a glamourized version of typically Mexican dancing and singing. The top nightclubs in Mexico City are open until 4 a.m. In Mexico City ... and more and more in other parts of the country .. coffee houses are also spring- ing up, where snacks and varie- ties of coffee are accompanied by recorded music. No trip to Mexico would be complete without attending a bullfight. Contrary to popular be- lief, the Mexicans do not consider bullfighting as a sport in the com- petit've sense. To the Mexicans, bullfights are primarily a drd.- • uratic spectacle, with traditional customs and rituals. rigidly ob- served. The formal season_gener- ally runs from November to April, with novices performing in the off-season., The fights start promptly at 4:30 p.m., Sunday afternoon and seat prices vary according to proximity to the ring and to whether they are on ' the shady or sunny •(cheaper) side. In Mexico City's huge Plaza Mexico (capacity 50,000) the safety -side seats in: the first 16 rows cost from $2.50 to $6.00. Incidentally, when attending any stadium or arena event in Mexico, it is cus- tomary to tip the usher one peso if he shows you to your seat. A seat cushion usually costs .two pesos. Indeed, Mexico has much to offer, ,the tourist; whether your interests be history, sports, eat- ing, nightlife or just plain relax- ing. Mexico will certainly fill the bill. It.'s also a great place to take the whole family. Make a note to include it on your Travel Calen- dar. The Country A major part of Mexico con- sists of an elevated central pla- teau. la- teau, bordered on the east and west by coastal mountain ranges which extend south, coming to- gether in Mexico City and ex- tending beyond. While this• com- bination of mountains and sea- shores provides a variety of clim- ates ranging all the way •from tropical to cool temperatures (a delight for temperature -con- scious visitors), it restricts the land area suitable for farming to 15 per cent of the total, with some 47 per cent available for pasture or range land. Nevertheless. with the introduction of modern agri- cultural methods and machinery, plus the constant expansion of one of the world's most extensive irrigation systems, Mexico has succeeded not only in feeding its people but in exporting substan- tial quantities of cotton, corn, coffee, sugar, wheat and toma- toes. By 1965, Mexico had become the world's largest producer of sisal and vanilla, the third largest producer of cotton and the fifth largest producer of corn. Mexico Is also the world's largest pro- ducer of silver. second largest of sulphur, forth largest of lead and the sixth largest producer of zinc, exporting a majority of its production of these minerals. Mexico has a multitude of at- tractions that could stand by themselves regardless of wheth- er you ever got to know the peo- ple; the beautiful seaside resorts, the historic Colonial cities, the awesome archaeological, remains and resotrations of the great pre- Columbian Indian., civilizations, the cosmopolitan excitement of Mexico City, the unexcelled hunt- ing and fishing, and the wide variety of other participant and spectator sports. But it's all a much warmer experience if you. do make friends. . and enjoy the' differences in people and cus- loms just as you enjoy. the Oiffer- ,ence 'hi'tthe sights. Nothing" iris 'friei1a1 'AT itile g>F` ting"'of ` A" Mexican acquaintance you hap- pen to -meet in the street ; he would never think of just passing you by with a nod, even if the amenities will make -him late for an important meeting. , .which is also something to bear in mind if heis late for a meeting with you. Enjoy the • differences for their own values instead of comparing them to how things are done at home. When a Mexican takes you into his home and says, "Su casa, senor", .he means it. And that means- a lot. Welfare frauds investigated by OPP branch The Ministry of Community and Social Services has re- quested an investigation into wel- fare frauds by the Ontario Pro- vincial Police. A number' of welfare files sus- pected of fraud' involving $51,000 have been turned over to the ODI' anti -rackets branch by the family benefits branch. The . alleged frauds are con- nected with recipients in Thunder Bay, Kirkland Lake, Ottawa, Windsor, Belleville and Owen Sound. Several others in Toronto are being investigated by the Metropolitan Toronto Police De- partment. The processing of suspected frauds will be on a continuous basis. A number of charges are before the courts and others are pending. - The anti -rackets branch will be responsible for' investigations and co-ordinating the efforts of other forces.
