Flyers take lead
in playoff series
In one of the best games
that has been played at the
Zurich arena this year, the
Zurich Flyers defeated the
Hensall Combines 6-4 in
overtime in the first game of
a best of five South Huron
Hockey League quarter
final.
The game which saw only
nine minor penalties called
by referees Harry Moir and
T. Millar went into overtime
when Steve Bedour of the..
Flyers scored an unassisted
goal with only two minutes
remaining in the game.
Following a scramble to the
side of Hensall goalie Laurie
Skinner, Bedour picked up
the puck and back handed a
shot to the upper left corner
of the net just as he was be-
ing up -ended by a Hensall
player.
Zurich picked up the first
goal of the game as Marty
Becker scored from Bedour
at 15:01 of the first.
The Combines tied the
game ten minutes later as

Fred Campbell and Wayne
Corbett put one past Kevin
Wildfong, in net for the
Flyers.
The Flyers got the one
back as two of the McKinnon
brothers combined for
Zurich's second goal. Kim
McKinnon scored from Ran-
dy McKinnon with less than
three minutes remaining in
the period.
The game continued to
seesaw back and forth with
Hensall tieing the game on a
goal by Steve Knight. Fred
Campbell and Brian
Campbell assisted.
Ron Desjardine of the
Flyers put the local squad
out in front as he scored
midway through the second
period with help from Ron
Rader.
Knotting the game up at
three goals apiece was ac-
complished by Hensall as
Allan scored an unassisted
goal.

lead for the first time in the
game early in the third
period when Rader was sent
off at the 4:45 mark for

Screen trips
Citizens News, March 9, 1978 Page 7
March exams cancelled
The Huron County Board
of Education decided
Monday that March
secondary school
examinations would be
cancelled in an effort to
make up lost school time
caused by the secondary
school teacher's strike. The
board decided to cancel the
examinations to make up
between seven and nine
instructional days that
normally would be set aside
for mid -terms.
Along with the exams, the
board decided to request
school principals to be very
careful screening student
field trips before asking for
board approval. The board
also cancelled two
professional development
days in April and may delay
final examinations in June to
make up even more school
time if necessary.
Education director John
Cochrane told the board that
the students can be tested in
class after the strike is over
and that the March
examinations were not
necessary. He said teachers
could estimate marks and
give their students class
tests to achieve the same
results the March exams
would give. He added that
the teachers can come up
with some type of testing
"presumably some time in
April."
Cochrane said the con-
version of the examination
time would result in seven to
nine more instructional
days. He said that if the
weatherman co-operated for
the remainder of the winter
the board will be ahead of
last year in terms of lost
time due to winter storms.
The director told the board
that South Huron Secondary
School and Seaforth
Secondary School had
scheduled professional
development days in April
and that those should be
cancelled.
He said that those moves
by the board should leave the
students "not that far behind
in instructional time lost if
the strike is settled soon."
Cochrane said the board
could arrange for more class
time in June if it was
required. He said the final
examinations could be
pushed back farther in the
month but added that he
would recommend that
matter be left until the board
knows how much time will be
lost by the strike.
He said that the screening
of field trips may result in
some cancellations if the
principal does not feel the
educational benefits of the
trip warrants the students
leaving the class r000m. He
said he would urge the
principals to be very careful
before they ask the board to
approve a trip.
The board gave the
director power to act in
approving a field trip
planned for Grade 12 and 13
students at South Huron. The
trip is a week long exchange
program with students from
Quebec and the Exeter
students already have a
strong commitment to the
Quebec students. Cochrane
said the students would be
attending school in Quebec
and would be hosting a group
of French-Canadian students
back in Exeter on the same
program.
The board told Cochrane to
discuss the matter with the
principal of South Huron and
make a decision based on
that discussion.

Take a minute now to think about
yourself and your work situation. Your job
satisfaction and good health are
important to you, your employer and the
productivity of Ontario's economy.
Safe and healthy workers are better
workers, and concemed, well-informed
employers are better employers. That's
why your Ontario Government has
established the Occupational Health and
Safety Division within the Ontario
Ministry of Labour.
The Division communicates and works
with employers and employees alike,
encouraging all concemed to do
everything possible to prevent injury or
illness in the workplace. It does this by:
® conducting regular programs of
inspections and audits to ensure
compliance with the legislation;
• providing advisory, consultative and
technical services on health and safety
matters;
• promoting internal labour -management
responsibility for maintaining a safe
and healthy workplace;
• reviewing proposed plans for new
projects in the pre -development stages
to avoid "building in" potential hazards.
The new Division is dedicated to the
control and elimination of occupational
health and safety hazards with ongoing
research, educational programs and — if
need he — corrective action when
cooperation doesn't work.
A booklet spelling out in detail the
activities of the Occupational Health and
Safety Division is being distributed to
employers. If you would like a copy,
contact your nearest Ministry of Labour
office. And work in good health!
