Howick's lack of stamina in the third appeared -to be its downfall, as Arthur chalked up four goals to Howick's two.. First -period action saw Charlebois strike early for Howick in the first minute, unassisted. The duel con- , tined until, with 2:12 left in the period, Arthur's Draper evened the score. With less than a minute left in the period, Troy Pocaluyko scored from Bradstock and Foerter; another goal with 17 seconds left by Bradstock from Pocaluyko and Hill sent the teams to the dressing rooms with Howick up by two goals. The second period seemed to be Howick's, as netminder Dave McLean diligently turned back Arthur attacks, but Kemp got a goal for the Eagles midway through the e CIC 1c1( 6P6 period. Two minutes later, Pocaluyko, assisted by Cardiff and Foerter, rounded out the second -period scoring with Howick still ahead by two. Third -period play saw Leslie score from Charlebois and Mock two minutes into the period. Less than two minutes later, Draper notched his second for Ar- thur. Dann Hill got Howick's final marker near the five- minu1te mark, with assists going to Pocaluyko and .Bradstock. Arthur then dug in and got three unanswered goals, from Kemp, McCabe and McCullough. Pocaluyko had a goal called back in the final minutes of play which would have made a difference. Weber and Leslie applied pressure in the dying seconds, but could not score. This Friday Grand Valley will be in Howick for an 8:30 p.m. game. Howick is now in a must -win position to ensure a playoff spot, with only four games left.

GOLF ,= nd CURLING CLUB ‘r� .., Last week we congratu- lated the senior ladies for winning their division in competition; this week, we congratulate the men. A team consisting of Mike Shepperd, skip, Bevin Lindsay, vice, John Schenk, second and Ted Brewster, lead, reltnained unbeaten all Sunday and eliminated Exeter 14-1 to win the Zone 13B playdowns. They now go on to the Bauer Colt competition for Zone 13A being held in Teeswater in February. The mixed playdowns started at 10 a.m. Sunday morning and were under the direction of Carolyn Schofield. The three high teams from the Tuesday, Thursday and Friday mixed nights played off. The over- all winners of the day was a team skipped by Rollie Kaufman. Other members of the team were Marilyn Wood, Norman Rude and Arnold Morrison, a new curler to the club this year. A team skipped by Stewart Leedham placed second. Other team members were Shirley Kaufman, vice, Ken Wood, second and Marianne Chadwick, lead. Audrey Tiffin filled in for Mrs. Chadwick Sunday. The team lost the game in the last end of play. In third place was Ace Bateson's team with the following members, Marg Mann, Murray Stainton and Colleen Robertson. All winners were awarded prizes. President Hugh Clugston reported ^ that Casey Casemore has come on the prize committee to replace Nelson Hill who has been transferred in his work. The report- was made at an executive meeting held last week. Dave Ablett was appointed to complete the year as OCA representative, the position left vacant by Bill Hanula. Mr. Ablett reported that the high school curling for Zone 13A and 13B will be held at the Wingham club Sunday commencing at 1 p.m. Approximately $700 was made at the recent benefit dance for the club. Mr. Clugston thanked the social committee for planning and to all who helped in any way. It is a start in paying the almost $8,000 debt for the new compressor. Mike Shepperd, bonspiel chairman, reported that the Sweetheart Invitational Bonspiel, being held the weekend of Feb. 12 and 13 is filling up quickly and said anyone who has not entered a team yet should do so. In the ladies° division, Mary Williams encouraged the ladies to sign up for the tankard competition being held in Kincardine in February. We need two teams to represent the club. A fun day of curling bet- ween the country and town ladies is being planned. Ruth. Orien, Marilyn Wood and Marlene Leedham offered to work on the event and the tentative date set is Friday, Feb. 18. Watch for the sign on the bulletin board and sign up. Good curling everyone! madill mirror Short story: Coming Home As the bus pulled up at .the bus stop, she scanned the area thoroughly. What would he be thinking? Was he even there? She worried now even more than when she first boarded the bus. Was this the right thing to do? Maybe she should have just let him alone? He would survive. He always did. There had been no phone calls — just a letter about once very two months. But then, those letters had been filled with all the excitement a writer could put into them. How he had found a house, fixed it up and had almost finished writing his new novel. How he could hardly wait for her to come back. How much he missed her. Yes, the letters were the reason for returning. The reason for coming to him was wholly because of the letters. She tried to convince her- self that this was the one and only reason. But she failed. No, the other reason dwelt deep in her heart. All she needed was a smile and she would know that nothing be- tween them had changed. She walked toward the frent of the bus and was about to _proceed down the stairs when she saw him. He had not changed a bit. Still the wavy brown hair and still those dark brown eyes which were presently looking all around, waiting for her to step off the bus. So perfect— fie looked just perfect. And she, well, she could easily go. back to where she had just come from and then he would be free of all responsi- bility. Undecidedly, she stood at the tbp step, thinking over the situation. "Hey lady, do you want to get out of the way?" She stepped aside and let the other passengers get off. Still pondering her dilem- ma, she did not see the bus driver climbing up the steps. "Come on lady, either off or on and move it!" That was it! She looked at the tired old man and spoke a bit more harshly than she had intended. "I wouldn't get back in that bus and ride anywhere with you driving if you paid me!" And she stepped awkward- ly from the bus. Cautiously, she gazed at the man with the dark brown eyes and saw him smile. It was okay. She was home. He ran to where she stood and enveloped her in a warm hug. This was all the pro- tection she needed. All her support was right here in his arms. And with that thought, she dropped the crutches which had been supporting her ruined legs, and wrapped her arms around his neck. It felt great to be home! —Liz Wilkins 4,207 Student question "What . are your views en class presentations and pro- jects?" ro- jects?" This was. an excellent stu- dent question for this week as so many of us have had them in the past week or have them in the near future. Here are some positive and negative, answers: "I don't like them because I don't feel I do my best work when I'm with a group. I don't like to stand up and talk in front of people." Kim Gibson, Grade 10. "They are interesting be- cause they take uptime, then there is less time to)lo work (regular) in class. ° Mary Ellen Gibson, Grade 11. "I like them because you can put together a better presentation if you have other people's views and ideas along with your own.

Thanks to all who cheered us on to victory. They may understand some- thing you don't and vice versa." Marlene Vander- leeuw, Grade 10. "I think they are boring because my group some- times doesn't want to do the work. I hate when you get tested on a project you have done, after the teacher said to you that you could have done better and doesn't give you an explanation." Gwen Cousins, Grade 11. "I think they are worth- while because it gives you practice at speaking your opinions to your classmates. You learn to have more con- fidence in yourself." Valerie Ricker, Grade 10. "I only like them if they have food!" Nima Patel, Grade 13. —Marianne Malda Editorial ef•; ion ;, eeWees face •petition The Wingham Legion Pee Wees met some tough competition during the past week.

Statistics prove Canada is a "free" country. If this statement is true, why is it mandatory that we wear seat belts? Many would answer, "To protect yourself and your passengers in case of an accident." Statistics show that, in the majority, they protect. In some cases, yes, they may save you, but in others they cause the damage. How is the government to know be- fore the tragedy occurs how it will turn out? They cannot, and no one else can either. This is why I feel this decision should be left up to the passenger alone, or in the case of a child, to the parents. My sister chose not to wear her seat belt. She went into a white-out and hit a pig truck. Afterwards, the police asked her if she was wearing her seat belt. Her answer was "no". The police officer then proceeded to check off the "yes" on his investigation sheet. He said if she had been wearing her seat belt, she would have been killed. That investigation is only one of several I have heard of where "yes" was checked off for "no". A really nice cop at the time, it seemed, but these are the sheets from which statistics are taken. And this is, supposedly, an- other accident to prove seat belts save lives. So we have to wear seat belts in this free country in which statistics prove seat belts protect us. —Kendra Purdon Guest Editorials All students in English 451 are required to write edi- torials. These students then choose the editorials they would like printed. The school page committee then chooses from those selected. Kendra Purdon's is a sample of those who become guest editors. However, the con- troversial views expressed are those of the writer — not necessarily those of many in the school. The Advance -Times WANT -AUS skating and agressive play were an inspiration to his teammates, and Marc Poulin and Matthew Hunter fought fiercely in the corners to head off the opposition. Todd Harrison skated as he had never skated before to force Howick's green sweaters off the net. Gavin Hodgins dug in and skated and slapped the puck into Howick's end and Barton Cameron sped into the corners and cleared the puck in front of the net. Jonathan Lane stickhandled around the solid walls of green. Each of Wingham's boys was a credit to his team by his hard play.
