Crying foul
The ref had something to say about this as Devin
Shannon's enthusiasm got him a little too close to Tyler
Wilson, left, when he tried to make a shot on net. The two
were taking part in the basketball clinic held last Saturday
at the Blyth Public School. The Optimists supplied pop
and chips for the day which was comprised of a morning
session for Grades 4, 5, 6 and an afternoon session for
Grades 7 and 8. Sixty-five boys and girls participated.

Skater takes 4 in Hunt for gold
Sandy MacEachern was the
messenger at Brussels Mennonite
Fellowship on Sunday, April 14.
His topic was ''One Thing".
Mr. MacEachem pointed out that
good works and earthly possessions
are not enough for salvation. One
must be born again and receive the
Holy Spirit, the gift of God, for
those who will give up their own
life and follow Christ.
Kathy Procter was worship
leader, Andrea Hiller played for the
offertory and Mervin Lichy led the
singing.
The Ladies' Fellowship will meet
on Tuesday, April 16 for the
monthly meeting. Friday evening a
talent auction and silent auction
will be held at the church. Proceeds
will go to the mission fund.
Thought of the week: Unity from
believers comes from unity with
Christ.
By Janice Becker
It is never to late to enter the
competition, to strive for gold and
attain that goal.
Kathy Hunt of Ethel is just such a
person as she took up competitive
speed skating at the age of 37 and
now, at 42, holds all records in the
35 to 50 Masters age group at the,
North American level.
Hunt travelled to Red Deer,
Alberta for the Canadian champi-
onships, March 29 to 31 and the
North American championships,
April 5-7.
On her stride for the North
American competition, Hunt cap-
tured gold in 500 metre, 777 metre,
1,000 metre and 1,500 metre races.
Not only did her record-breaking
times put her in the record books
for the North American title, but
the Canadian as well for the 40 to
49 age group. (Different countries
categorize ages differently.)
At the Canadian championships,
a week earlier, Hunt earned third in
the Serior (over 18) 500 metre,
1,000 metre and 3,000, allowing
her to place third overall.
"The trip was very successful and
fun," she says. "I received many
comments from the other skaters
about how they were inspired to
Blyth Thunder
tie 2 in Easter
tournament
Blyth Thunder, the local women's
hockey team competed over the
Easter weekend in a tournament in
Brampton.
On Good Friday the team took on
the players from the University of
New Brunswick and skated to a 1-1
tie. Missy Bieman scored the lone
Blyth marker.
On Saturday the team faced off
against Belleville and again, led by
Bieman and her sister Marci, who
earned the assist, came away with a
1-1 tie.
_ Sunday, in a tough contest
against Windsor the girls were shut
out by a close 2-0 score. Windsor
went on to finish in the top spot for
the Senior Ladies C hockey league.
More than 90 per cent of infants
observed were restrained in some
way. However, just over one-third
were restrained correctly in a rear
facing safety seat.

are inspired to work hard."
Hunt's 13-year-old daughter also
competed in the Canadian champi-
ons, but up against 26 very tough
second-year skaters, was unable to
place, though she did skate four
personal-best times, says Hunt. "It
bodes well for next year. She is a
tough kid who responds well under
pressure."
Next on the agenda for Hunt is a
little rest and relaxation before
beginning a different summer train-
ing regiment.
"I would like to attend the trials
for the Canadian National team
next year," she says. Thirty-two
skaters are selected from time trials
to compete in a full event for the
national team, and though not eligi-
ble to be a member of the squad,
Hunt hopes to skate fast enough to
attain a Canadian ranking.
