Major changes
are corning
These sports pages are about to undergo
a big change, and once again (hopefully
for the last time) I'm going to ask all of you
sporting people to help me make it work.
Beginning in the very near future we
hope to be running a second section every
week in the paper. When this change takes
place, this section will begin with the
heading "Recreation".
We're hoping this heading will allow us
to take in a few more activities that are on
the borderline of being sports.
At this time, the sports (or recreation)
pages will also be expanding just a little
bit. Instead of the regular page or two, I'm
hoping to be able to fill up the entire front
page of this section with sports and recrea-
tion, as well as two of the inside pages.
Now, the first area where I would like a
little help will be in finding some activity
to feature every week. There are always
some interesting sporting characters, or
interesting sports themselves, which peo-
ple would like to read about.
If I can discover these activities, or
characters, I hope to fill up part of the
front page every week with photos and a
feature story.
Since I still feel relatively new to the
area, 1 would appreciate any help in track-
ing down these feature stories. If you have
any ideas, just call me - you'll find I'm
very easy to get along with.
Sports
DEIVID EMSLIE
The next area I will definitely need
everyone's help in is gathering enough
sports to fill up three pages. In the past, I
have sometimes run aver my two page
quota, but this is a fairly rare occurence.
So far, the people down at Central Huron
Secondary School have proven to be very
helpful, and I hope others can follow their
lead. In the past two weeks CHSS has pro-
vided me with volleyball, track and field,
basketball and football stories.
But I'm not necessarily asking people to
provide me with the stories.Even a call to
let me know the scores of games played,
and the scorers, would be much ap-
preciated. Schedules also come in handy,
so we can drop out for some pictures.
I can't really comment on the hockey
scene ( except the Mustangs, who are
regular contributors) as yet, because I'm
not sure whether the minor teams have
started to play. I know for a fact, though,
that Clinton has a number of teams.
It won't take much effort on anyone's
part to keep the public informed on how
these teams are playing. Although a story
written by someone at the game is always
more in-depth, a short call to give me the
results is almost as good.
There must be some .other sports going
on out there during the winter. How about
broomball? I didn't even know Clinton had
a team until I heard about it this summer.
How about some results?
If I've missed anyone, feel free to call up
and tell me how your team is doing.
Again, if you don't want to write it out,
just give me a shout at 482-9502, and I'll be
more than happy to take down what you
have to say.
I'd like to see this section work, but I
won't be able to do it without your help.
One last word. As I will be putting the
section together on Monday afternoons, I
will need all of the results by around noon
on Monday. Also, if you have something to
drop off, and we're not open, just use the
slot in the door.
After this new section gets its start, any
late arriving news will be saved for the
following week's paper.
Thanks (in advance) for helping to make
this expansion go smoothly.

There was a lot of action taking place at Huron Centennial Public School on September 30
as that school hosted the East Regional Junior Soccer Tournament. Students from Huron
Centennial, Vanastra, Blyth, Hullett Central, Seaforth, Clinton Public and St. Joe's
Separate School took part in the event. Roughly 200 children participated in this tourna-
ment, which is held just for the fun of it. Huron Centennipl hosted the East Region In-
termediate tournament on October 6. ( David Emslie photo)
Hearing to be held on raceway
By David Emsiie
CLINTON - A hearing into the proposed
establishment of a harness racetrack in the
Sarnia area was held on October 6, council
here learned during Monday's meeting.
Councillor Case Buffinga explained Clin-
ton will be presenting a brief at the hear-
ings, as the local track is sure to suffer with
another one opening.
He was especially concerned that Sarnia
might want to be open on Sundays. "If they
do give the Sarnia raceway Sundays, it will
put Dresden out of business, and it will put
us virtually out of business.
When asked how Clinton might stop the
Sunday openings, Councillor Buffinga
replied, "We can't, I don't think we can."
Private Property Week
In other business, council moved to
designate the week of October 4 to October
12 as Private Property Week.
When asking for the designation, Mayor
John Balfour read a proclamation that
stated, "1 ask all residents of Clinton to join
with the Huron Real Estate Board and its
members in marking this period to reflect
that we are free people endowed with the
right to own real property, and that we are
given the responsiblity to protect that
right."
