BY TIM CUMMING
Expositor Editor
Those recovering from heart
disease may no longer have to
travel to Clinton or Goderich for a
special program called Heart to
Heart.
For the first time, this course will
be offered in Seaforth for people
who have had a heart attack, car-
diac surgery or angina pectoris.
The eight-week course. will be
offered at Seaforth Community
Hospital from Sept. 22 to Nov. 10,
said Val Poisson, who is an R.P.N.
at the hospital and instructs CPR.
Participants in the course are
asked to bring someone with them.
"What we try to get is the patient
and a spouse or a family member,"
said Poisson.
Each week of the program is
dedicated to a specific topic on
heart disease.
The course begins with a get -
acquainted session, followed. in the
second week with a program called
`Getting to Know Your Heart.'
The third week, featuring a die
tician, centres around healthy eat-
ing. The fourth week is about fit-
ness and getting into shape and
features a physiotherapist.

which deals with CPR. A pharma-
cist helps out with week six which
is `pill talk.' Week seven deals with
stress and the psychological aspects
of heart disease. The eighth week
winds up the program. F,ach session
is two hours.
The organizer of the course says
its helpful for patients who may
find it hard to absorb all the infor-
mation given to them at the hospital
immediately following a heart
attack.
Some people are able to rebound
from a heart attack and remain
active, said Poisson.
"You see people who have had a
heart attack who are out swimming
or biking and leading a more active
life than they did prior to the heart
attack."
To become a participant in the
program heart patients may be
referred by a doctor. Other recover-
ing heart patients can call the
Seaforth Community Hospital or
Val Poisson at 527-0320.
Forms about the program are
available at doctors' offices.

Take those BB pellets
away from your youngster
By MONA IRWIN
Signal -Star Staff
If your children are wandering
around alone with a loaded BB
gun, you could be in trouble.
Under new provincial legisla-
tion, nobody under the age of 18
can buy or be given any ammuni-
tion. The 'only exception are
youths between 16 and 18 years
old, who have a special permit
which allows them to hunt or tar-
get shoot under adult supervision.
And a youth who does not have
this permit can be given BBs or
pellets by an adult, as long as that
adult supervises the youth while
the youth is shooting.
"Most kids [in Huron County]
have BB guns or pellet guns,"
says Goderich OPP Const. Bill
Wilson, who is the detachment's
firearms training officer. "Now the
thing is, they can't have ammuni-
tion unless they have an adult with
them."
BB guns and pellet guns
"always have been dangerous, as
far as I'm concerned," Wilson
adds. "If there's an adult with
them, there is some control."
Anybody buying ammunition
must provide government -issued
identification that include a photo-
graph, date of birth and the buy-
er's current address.
A store that sells ammunition to
an underage person - or an indi-
vidual who provides ammunition
to an underage person - can be
fined up to $25,000 for a first con-
viction and up to $50,000 for a
second or subsequent one.
And anyone who buys ammuni-
tion without the proper permits or
documents can be fined up to
$5,000 on a first offence and up to
$10,000 on a second or subse-
quent offence.
Also anyone who cannot have
photo ID (for religious reasons,
for example) can call the Chief
Provincial Firearms Office, locat-
ed in Toronto.
