After Bob Pinter opened the scoring for Huron Park at the 7.55 marls in the first period, the Flyers carne back strong and at the midway mark Larry Merrier tied the game on a neat scoring effort from Gerald Schantz and George Suplat. Four minutes later Bob Johnston shot the Flyers into a 2-1 lead with assists going to Bob Merri- er erner and Glenn Overholt. The Flyers legs seemed to give out in the second period, as Torn Millmar and Don Skin- ner each scored once, and Larry Brintnell came through with two big markers for Huron Park. In the third period the Flyers regained their form of old and stormed back with two big goals, but they were still one short of tying the game. Gerald Shantz scored the first marker at 8.14 on an unassisted play, and then just a minute and a half later Glenn Overholt bang- 'EDI�MIX NCRET.

Keller) Barry Eastwood, head of the Regional Assessment office located in Huron County, was on the hot seat Friday as mem- bers of county council quest- ioned him about certain as- pects of the work done by his office. One of the main areas of concern seemed to be whose responsibility it was to seek out new assessment - the assessment office or the local municipal officials. Eastwood told council it would take co-operation bet- ween the two departments. He said common sense would dictate that it would be far too costly for the assessment dep- artment to crisscross the county often enough to pick up all the new assessment and that a report from the municipal people would be most helpful. Eastwood noted that the full impact of the provincial equal- ized assessment system would not be felt until 1974 when assessments will be based on real estate values. He claimed this would be a more satisfact- ory arrangement with the prop- erty owner having a more gen- eralized and easily understood scale to go by when appealling assessment. Eastwood further suggested that after 1974, the "complete Assessment Act will be rewrit- ten"... but he admitted he was "second guessing the govern- ment" iii this regard. Council will hear from East- wood again in November when he will be recalled to council for further questioning. 0 Dashwood foremen sponsor dance Dashwood volunteer firemen held a costume dance Friday, October 29.
