On August 25 Mr, Mundy met Mrs. ftobSon's children from Kirltton, Dublin, Staffa, and London, also his daughter frelli London. Before returning to England he will also be re-united with a brother from Alberta from whom he was separated as a child in 1904. Vandals hit church Sometime Sunday afternoon or evening Cromarty church was entered and all the hooks in the pews were thrown to the floor, many of them with the .covers bent back. Most of these were the new presbyterian Book of Praise which have only been in use a little over a year. Passers-by, noticing a light on in the church, went in to investigate .and found the mischief. The side door which has been left open for the con- venience of the congregatien in recent years, is now kept locked, 4-H clubs Members of Perth 4-H Corn and Bean Club, Tractor Club and Snowmobile Club and their parents held a corn and wiener roast at the home of Mr. & Mrs. James Harper, near Mitchell. During the evening the clubs enjoyed games led by Len McGregor, co-ordinator from the Clinton Agricultural Office. The Exeter swim team capped off their most successful season with a seventh place finish in the Western Ontario Swimming championships held in Listowel, Wednesday. A total of 37 teams were en- tered in the event sponsored by the sport and ,recreation bureau and Canadian Junior Olympic Association. Many of the teams competing against the Exeter swimmers have the added advantage of year round swimming, with those teams coming from London, Tillsonburg, Aylmer and several other larger centres. While only a few individuals managed to bring home ribbons to Exeter, the team's depth was quite evident when they garnered most of their points in the relay events. In the relays, the Exeter crews scored one first, two seconds, a fourth, fifth and sixth, Laurie Ross was the only in- dividual winner when she streaked home in a time of 43.4 to take the back stroke in the girls' 11 and 12 age bracket. She beat her closest competitor by a second. Elizabeth. Giffin picked up a pair of third place finishes. Those came in the girls' 13 and 14 back stroke and the free style events. Sheila McLeod was the only other girl to pick up a ribbon, placing fifth in the butterfly event for 11 and 12 year-old swimmers. Doug Fletcher and Ian Sweet placed second and third respectively in the breast stroke for boys 11 and 12. Doug finished with a time of 48.15 with Ian close behind at 48.2. Local horseman gets suspension An Exeter man was one of two horsemen suspended Thursday by the Canadian Trotting Association following seizure 'Of syringes and drugs at Mohawk Raceway near Campbellville. Suspended were Bill Edwards, Exeter and his assistant Norman Spencer of Oakville. They were suspended under Canadian Trotting Association and Ontario Racing Commission rules governing the possession of such devices and medicaments. While there is no racing. at Mohawk, the,-track's stables houses the overflow of Nimes racing at Toronto Greenwoocand, other area tracks. CREDI TON DRAW A draw sponsored by the Crediton Community Parks Board was won Monday night by Kevin Bestard, RR 3, Parkhill. The prize was a side of beef. In the same age bracket, Doug Raymond picked up a fourth place ribbon in the back stroke, while Scott Jamieson, swimming in the butterfly event for boys eight and under was tied for third with a time of 27.3. The only other boy to pick up ribbons was Dave Shaw, who came home in sixth place in the butterfly for boys 10 and under, and then scored a similar placing in the back stroke. The relay team picking up the first place ribbon was the 11 and 12 year boys crew including Doug Raymond, Doug Fletcher, Brian Mercer and Rick Lindenfield. Placing fifth in the same event was another local entry con- sisting of Bruce Shaw, Ian Sweet, Steve Horn and Dave Bell. The 10 and under boys ended up with a second place ribbon, being nipped by just one second by Chatham. Team members are Dave Shaw, Scott Pincombe, Scott Batten and Rick Fletcher. Another second place award went to the 14 and under girls entry consisting of Lynne Brooks, Liz Giffin, Lynne Mercer and Jill Tuckey. The team of Wilma Van- derlaan, Valerie Sweet, Cindy Horn and Marie Jarvis came up with a time of 2:43 to capture fourth place for girls over 15, while the girls under 12 placed sixth. Members of the latter foursome.are Laurie Ross, Cindy Fisher, Cindy Beaver, and Sheila McLeod. The Exeter crew compiled 81 points in the swimming cham- pionship, which was topped by Chatham and London Gibbons with 171 points each. Strathroy, St. Thomas, Aylmer and London Byron were the only other teams who could better Exeter's entry. Steer This Way BY LARRY SNIDER Lowered speed limits are also lowering the traffic toll. Holi- day weekends this summer have been much safer than in years before. If the average auto, traveling 30 miles per hour, slows down to 15 and then accelerates back to 30 just once during the course of a mile, it will burn 11 percent more fuel. Try to avoid deep puddles. Even if you drive very slowly through them, the' fan may throw water all over the engine. Paper air filter inside the air cleaner should be changed every 10,000 miles, or it will choke off supply of air to engine. Australian engineer has found a way to dispose of old car tires. He freezes them to almost 200'centigrade below zero, and smashes them into small particles that can be re- used for rubber surfacing, carpet backing, etc. Your old tires ready for the icebox? Maybe the car is, too.

"Penalties should be given anytime a stick is carried above the hips. The penalty for cutting a player in the face should be in- creased." "Fights have been going on in hockey since the game was in- vented, " said Jack Nairn "and they will continue, A player rarely gets hurt during a fight. It's the other aspects of rough play I would like stopped." Nairn suggested a player be ejected immediately from the game for serious high sticking offences and butt ending and spearing. For the second offence in one season, the penalty could be increased to four or five games. In college hockey, players engaging in a fight are automatically out of the game according to Bill Mahoney. Mahoney commented "there should be more match penalties for attempting to injure. We don't really need a lot of rule changes, but just enforcement of those we have." Ron Horn feels hockey is no more violent than in the past. He concedes there is an upswing in the use of the high stick. Horn continued, "let's stop the rough stuff that causes fights like high sticking, spearing and butt ending. In most cases there wouldn't be a fight if somebody wasn't aggravated in these other ways." According to Frank Funston a lot of hockey injuries come from accidental high sticks. He added, "lt really boils down to en- forcement of the rules we have now." Parental influence Everyone polled by the T-A agreed parents had a tremendous influence on the conduct of their sons on the ice. Bill Mahoney suggested part of the problem could stem from the paren ts ate nnoi tfz satnandcommunication the betweenhockey "I agree mothers screaming at a game is not an ideal situation but :if there was. .better .munication between the .parents, the league and coaches this could. be alleviated," he continued.
