A player whose ball is on the lip of the hole putts with one hand and catches the ball with his other hand after the ball is below the level of the lip of the hole. . What is the ruling? A. The player purposely stopped his mov- ing ball. In match play he loses the hole, in stroke play he incurred a penalty of 2 strokes and was required to place his ball on the lip of the hole and hole out. If he doesn't do this he will be disqualified for failing to hole out. In order for a ball to be holed it must be at rest within the circumference of the hole. Institute members tour ARC Industries Mrs. Dan, O'Rourke and Mary. Nolan were the convenors for the Education and Cultural Affairs meeting of the Seaforth Women's Institute which was held at A.R.C. ' Industries Dashwood. Twenty-six members and friends sat down to a salad dinner, served by the employees, Mrs. McLeod, operation co-ordinator, ' took members on a tour of the wood- working building, industrial automotive, crafts, kitchen program, and bake shop, where one lady was wrapping wedding cake. The' bake shop made , 1,200 pounds of fruit cake iast'year, and does a lot of baking for sale. ARC Industries does cleaning at' different business places and there is three buses to go and pick up clients. Gladys Doug took over the chair for the meeting and the roll call was "Something THE HURON EXPOSITOR, AUGUST 23 1989 ••- 1SA Huron County's public institutions neither outstanding nor defective A recent inspection of Huron County's public institutions indicates that they are neither outstanding nor seriously defective. "On the strength of this report, there doesn't seem to be anything out of the or- dinary at all," said Brian Lindsay, a pro- gram analyst with the Ministry of the At- torney General. "It's a standard report." Lindsay is responsible for passing along the panel's recommendations to the ministries that handle the various facilities. Bluewater Youth Centre was called a "seemingly well-run institution." The report went nn to say that the staff "should be commended for the work they do," and the residents did an "excellent" job conducting the panel around. John McGibbon, maintenance super- visor at Bluewater, credited his staff of 18 for the good report. "I've been in corrections for 18 years, and you won't find people like these in the city (institutions)," he said, "They're a multi -talented crew — we're very for- tunate to have these people around." Alexandra Marine and General Hospital is in "excellent," and Seaforth Cornmuni-' ty Hospital "looks as it should despite ex- tensive renovations," said the panel. However, the panel added that hospitals should not he on the inspection list. "That's news to me," Lindsay said. "Thr policy is that any facility, including hospitals, that are fully or partly funded by public monies should be on the list." The panel chairman, Brian MacKenzie, could not be reached for comment. The public washrooms at the main beach and St. Christopher's beach were "very clean," although the south women's washroom at St. Christopher's lacked soap and the north one had no sanitary napkins in the disposal machine. Also, the utility room door at the north washrooms was not locked. Other than a missing garbage liner in a washroom, Vanastra's Recreation Cen- tre is "well looked after," and extensive renovations make it "difficult to find fault" with Vanastra Public School. The panel added that the school, "should be inspected by a future panel." The Vanastra Day Care Centre ('1'uckersmith Day Nursery) has a "good adult -child ratio" as well as a "good in- tegration" with Lady Diana (a centre for handicapped youths). "Our licence says we can only accom- modate children on an 8:1 basis," said Cheryl Nuhn, supervisor of the day nursery. "We have 24 children, so we need three full-time staff — and that means three full-time staff to cover each shift." The day nursery is open 11 hours a day, five days a week. The inspection panel also pointed out that the fire hose in the wall is not func- tional and has not been function for some time, underlining the last three words. "That was fixed a year ago — it does work," said Nuhn. She added that the fire hose is actually part of the Vanastra Recreation Centre — which houses the day nursery and which was also in- spected — and was probably listed under the wrong institute. "But we do appreciate (the panel's) bringing things like this to our attention," Nuhn added. Goderich and District Memorial Com- munity Centre received primarily criticism, although of a minor nature. A liner was missing from a sanitary napkin disposal container, a toilet in the men's washroom was plugged and the storage areas were "generally untidy." "Some of those problems are day-to- day maintenance items," said arena manager Peter Imanse. The blocked toilet was the result of someone throwing something in it that didn't belong there, he explained, adding that they had.. brought plumbers in three times before solving the problem. • "And storage space is really limited here. The storage space we do have.is in dangerous areas, like the boiler room, the electrical room and the compression room. However, he is still working on that aspect of the problem, he added. WHERE S .,OULD WE GO that is helpful to a disabled and how we can help". Mary Town spoke on the roll call, and said they have their own slate sof officers and meet every month with committee meetings every two weeks. There is Government help but they do a lot for themselves. Delegates were named to the County Rally as: Jean Keys, Viola Lawsen, Area Convention; Olive Papple and Helen MacKenzie. Tracy Bosman was a guest and is representing the Seaforth Women's Institute in the Queen of the Fair contest. Mary Nolan gave the motto, "Education is a never ending experience" which was very. interesting. Thelma Dale moved the meeting be ad- journed, everyone felt they had a very educational and interesting day.

Over 100 relatives.attentled ■arHO.W MILES 9 mo® ILL T',,°,E`,•,E EE BARGAINS 9 Tial inspc tions are can u ied out iu all municipalities in the province twice a year: in the spring and in the autumn. The inspection panels are made up of seven people — all from the municipality' undergoing the inspection — drawn from the area's jury roll, provided by the sheriff. The panel is sworn in before the local district court judge (in Huron it's Judge Francis Carter). A different group is selected for each inspection. The sheriff also provides a list of the county's 160 public institutions — any facility completely or partly funded by public money — and the panel can inspect as many as they wish. They are also given a copy of the previous panel's report, and allowed to make any follow- up visits they feel are necessary. When the inspection is completed, the panel reports back to the judge in open court. The final report is filed in the registrar's office as a public document. A copy of the report is also sent to the Ministry of the Attorney General. The recommendations are then passed on to whatever ministry is responsible for the facility. For example, recommenda- tions concerning the courthouse would go to the Ministry of the Attorney General, concerns about the jails to the Ministry of Corrections and comments about the arena to the Ministry of Municipalities. Most of the time any problems in- dicated are dealt with quickly, Lindsay said. When money is tight, "we could get enough authority to say 'Do it when the money's available."' If the money isn't there, there isn't much the facility can do, he said Inspections of public buildings "go way back," Lindsay said. Before the Public Institutions Inspection Panel Act (R.S.O. 1980) was passed, the inspections were performed by grand juries. When grand juries were abolished in 1976 — in an ef- fort to streamline the administration of justice — their inspection function was considered important enough to be retain- ed under the PIIP, said Lindsay. sss WHAT ABOUT THE KIDS AT\ ABOUT SELECTION from Toronto, Hamilton, New York State, Michigan, Kitchener, London, Lambeth, Glansworth, Sebringvllle, Stratford, Mit- chell and surrounding area.
