Fritz, McArter lead
Mohawk playoff scoring
Brett Lee wins Supercross trophy
Nicknamed the “Brussels
Sprouts’’ linemates Tim Fritz and
Kevin McArter combined many a
time to bulge the twine in hockey
nets all over the Southern Senior
“A’’ loop.
After finishing in the top seven
scorers for the Exeter Mohawks
this season, the two young men
gained much more respect for next
season as they led the team
throughout the playoffs along with
linemate Joe Scherer. Coming into
the season the Mohawks knew it
would be an uphill battle as they
lost two very big offensive leaders
in Dave Randerson and Quincy
Wilker but found two replacements
in the names "Squeak” and
“Fritzy”, especially in the play
offs.
The Mohawks did manage to
capture the “Southern Senior "A”
Championship” defeating Dunville
in seven games where L.A. Kings
Marty McSorley’s brother Gerry
displayed his “talents” (if you’ve
seen Marty play you would know
what kind). After a tough series
there and a three or four hour trip
the Mohawks stepped into another
tough one in the Aylmer Hornets.
The Mohawks defeated them in

REPRESENTATIVE FOR
HURON COUNTY
On March 18, the Clinton field
office of the Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food held its
annual meeting to receive advice
from clients.
These meetings were started in
1986 with a dual purpose: one, to
hear from people who use the
Ministry’s services and two, to
have OMAF staff report to farm
leaders on activities conducted in
Huron County.
This year 29 farm leaders were
challenged with four questions
asking about issues in the rural
community, how to encourage con
sumer awareness, the role of the
OMAF field office and an evalua
tion of present office services.
Leaders were asked to identify at
least five major issues facing farm
people and to suggest solutions to
three of them. Some of the issues
discussed included low net farm
incomes, property taxes, rules and
regulations, waste management,
land use, animal welfare, loss of
young people, environmental pro
tection, water quality and quantity,

lack of volunteers and shortage of
off-farm jobs.
The question requiring a great
deal of thought was how to make
consumers more aware of the
agri-food industry. Some of the
suggestions included farm tours,
adopt a farmer project, agriculture
in the classroom, up-to-date videos
on primary agriculture, open line
TV/radio shows, open 4-H to urban
children, mall displays, farmers as
guest speakers on food issues,
educate the health care experts,
demonstration on safety of food
handling, food consultants in gro
cery stores, live animal displays at
local fairs and find out exactly what
our consumers want.
The Ministry will attempt to
incorporate as many of these
proposed solutions as possible into
the 1991/92 plans of work for
Huron County.
The staff at the Clinton field
office were pleased that so many of
the County’s Agricultural Leaders
could join us on March 18 in
Holmesville.

Arthur upsets Durham
for WOAA senior title
In front of a standing-room-only
crowd the Arthur Tigers scored
three third period goals, then held
off a last minute effort by the
Durham Thundercats for a 6-5 win
and the 1991 WOAA Senior Hockey
Grand Championship Friday night
in Durham.
Trailing 2-0 and 3-1 Durham
fought back to the game at 3-3
heading into third period action but
fell one goal short despite scoring
twice in the game’s last 1:23 of
play.
It was a disappointing end for the
Durham Club who at one point won
28 consecutive league and playoff
games and were overwhelming
favourites to win their second
championship in three years.

to the Pro program. Brett crashed
on a tricky section, but remounted
to get the final qualifying position
in his heat. The 180 riders were
reduced to 30 for the final. Chris
Lee won his qualifier.
On Sunday, Brett got off to a
poor mid-pack start and went down
after clipping a rear tire, while
passing in a corner. He recovered
and worked back to a fourth place
finish in the brief six lap race.
Chris Lee also started poorly and
got tangled in a pileup. He ended
the six laps in seventh place.
The top three riders in Brett’s
class were from Minnesota, Ken
