Collect salmon eggs for stocking program A half -million coho eggs from CreditRiver.:sallranl. anti the same number of eggs from chinook salmon in Bronte Creek. will be collected this fall for future stocking programs in Lake Ontario. Natural production by coho and chinook, both of which are salt water species, has been inadequate in a fresh water environment to maintain the fishery, fisheries extension biologist Allan Wainio said. "This situation, together with the disease regulations which► essentially prohibit the importa- tion of eggs from . outside the province, have forced us to the local spawning operations as our only possible means of continuing the fishery, at least iri the short term. Salmon will be held in a pool near the Credit River until they are ripe for spawn -taking, prob- ably in mid or late October. Once the ,eggi.are • Collected; they . will be shipped immediately to the ministry hatchery at Wiarton. Weirs installed at Bronte Creek and the Credit River will halt peak runs of coho and chinook salmon expected late this month or early October, long enough to provide the necessary number of eggs, Mr. Wainio explained. "When enough fish are caught, the weirs,will be removed and the salmon allowed to move up- stream. Good runs of salmon are expected in both waters. "It is possible that egg survival from this fall's fish may be poor due to contaminants,' Mr. Wainio added. "Samples of salmon and their eggs will be taken early in the fish runand will be analyzed by the Ministry of the Environment to determine the seriousness of the problem." National Youth Orchestra invites 1978 applications Having just completed its 18th annual season, the National Youth Orchestra is now accepting applications for its 1978 summer season. All young musicians, citizens or residents of Canada between the ages of 14 and 24 (as of July 15, 1978), are invited to compete in the auditions to be held in London, Sudbury, Toronto and Ottawa this coming Decem- ber and January. Since the audition itself is a valuable educational experience, younger musicians 12 to 14 are also invited to audition, though they are ineligible for NYO membership. • Canada's major training ground for orchestral musicians since 1960, the National Youth Orchestra covers all costs of accommodation, board, tuition and transportation for successful candidates. Application forms, to be submitted by October 2S, are available from the National Youth Orchestra, 76 Charles Street West, Toronto M5S 1K8. This past summer, 97 musi- cians from all over Canada were selected for what was widely regarded as the finest orchestra in the NYO's history. Following an intensive six-week program of orchettral, ensemble and indi- vidual training sessions, lectures and workshops under conductor George Tintner and a dis- tinguished international faculty, the NYO presented several public concerts. The 1977 orchestra's combina- tion of professional -level skills and youthful enthusiasm pro- duced <performances hailed by newspaper critics as "extra- ordinary", "astounding" and "breathtaking".

This is a reduction of 75 per cent, while overall eye injuries decreased by 65 per cent, to 88 from 253 re- ported cases. Dr. Pashby attributes the de- crease to the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association's (CAHA) stricter rules on high sticking and. the increasing use of face pro- tectors. He is a member of CSA's technical committee on protec- tive equipment for hockey and lacrosse players, which recently published a standard on eye and teeth protectors for hockey for- wards and defencemen_ CSA is now testing face masks to the standard and certified protectors should begin to appear on the marketplace this winter. The protectors must endure torture tests at CSA's Rexdale, Ontario, laboratories before certification is granted. The masks will be cooled to a tem- perature of -20 degrees C and then a puck, with the force of 60 foot pounds, will crash down on the protector. If the protector cracks, it fails the test. Optical tests will also be car- ried out to ensure that players can see adequately when wearing the masks. The standard eovers both clear plastic and mesh pro- tectors, and the spaces , in the mesh protectors must be suf- ficiently small so that the blade of a hockey stick cannot penetrate the mask. Bowling SENIOR LADIES The senior ladies opened their new season of bowling on Monday afternoon. After the first session the Peaches and Cherries lead the standings with five points each. The Apricots' have three and the Kumquats two. The Crabapples and Raspberries are slow starting. High single honors went to Wilma Kerr with her 201; she also had the 321 high double. Vera Schneider had a 194 single and over -300 doubles were recorded by Ethel Montgomery at 308 and Margaret Robertson_ with 311. 0=-0-0 . THURSDAY MIXED Keith Moffat chalked up the 667 high triple and 287 high single for the men last week. The ladies' honors were split between Diane English, who had the 631 high triple, and Joyce Church, who turned in high single. of. 230. Mary Campbell, 200; Cec Hoffe, 206; Doug Neil, 227, 200; Gail Holmes, 219; Betty Burley, 202; Dave Tiffin, 275; Marg Mof- fatt, 206; Diane English, 215, 217; Perrie Holmes, 235; Don Mont- gomery, 280; and Helen Daugherty, 217, all turned in games of 200 or over. 0--0-0 COFFEE KLATCH Iris Foulon bowled a high single with 320 points and Jean King bowled a high double with 469: Girls bowling 200 games were Lois Surridge, 253; Shirley Storey, 234 and 228; Diane Cameron, 212; Grace Walden, 210 and 209; Jean King, 208 and 261 and Ruth Schefter, 244. "I think it's very important that CSA has a standard to measure these products in order to keep junk off the market- place, explains Dr. Pashby. "There have been adequate wire mesh protectors with openings large enough to allow a stick through. CSA certification will also give the CAHA a reason to make the wearing of CSA certi- fied protectors mandatory." Several hockey leagues, such as the Ontario Minor Hockey As- sociation have already made face protectors mandatory, which Dr. Pashby believes has 1ed to the dramatic decrease in hockey eye injuries. In the 1974-75 season, most eye injuries' occurred to those in the 11-15 years age group, while last season, two-thirds of the injured players were 16 years of age or over. This is because the younger players are wearing protectors, but many of the older ones are not," says Dr. Pashby. "I can see us being able to get the figure of 11 eyes medically blinded and 88 eye injuries down to zero if everyone wore face protectors."
