Three Panthers play with school all-stars The ability of South Huron's senior boys basketball team winners of the Huron -Perth championship. was evident as .hree Panthers qualified for the Huron -Perth all-star team which played in the Burger King -Converse Classic last weekend. John McAllister. Kevin Parsons and John Mol, after a. long. tough and successful regular season have extended their basketball careers. The Huron -Perth team has been practising several times per weekend and anticipates future competitions. • The Classic tournament hosted by London's Westminster drew, all-star teams from Port Huron, Kent County. Essex, York. London. Sarnia and Windsor. Huron - Perth lost tragically to the eventual tournament winners from Windsor. South Huron Players felt it was a great learning experience just to be playing against the talented 6 7" Windsor centre Mo Sov- fan despite their 30 point loss Saturday's games were bet- ter for Huron -Perth as they perfected their fast breaks which had been emphasized in practice. Due to lack of time for practice and the all- star quality it is difficult for the all-star teams to develop a strong team defence. This was evident by the high scores as Huron -Perth eliminated Sarnia in the con- solation semis, 102-63. McAllister continued his suc- cess with 9 points while Par- sons had 6. John Mol who was named to the Free Press AH - Star Team failed to stand out at the tournament and scored only 4 points against Sarnia. Huron -Perth won the con- solation championship with a 91-74 decision over Kent Coun- ty. McAllister again scored 9 points. Parsons and Mol and seven and four points respectively. South Huron's players were somewhat in awe of the abili- ty of their opponents. McAllister found the play a lot faster and the players a lot bigger..Mol was also impress- ed with the calibre of play. "It's a lot harder - Huron - Perth is nothing compared to this." Greg Whitlock of Mitchell was named a tournament all- star. South Huron players will again have a chance to make their mark as they travel to Westminster today at 5:30 p.m. to play the London All - Stars. who placed second last weekend. Huron -Perth will also play in a Windsor tourna- ment next weekend. Lucan Anglican Church Morning Prayer was the order of service at Holy Trini- ty Anglican Church on the first Sunday after Easter. Greeting members and friends w rs. 1'ne lessons of the day were read int. Beth. Smith, pgd,;.Jian Shipley: In the absence of our organist, Patricia Pocock very ably provided the music. Rev. Pocock, in his sermon reflected on the events which took place on the first Easter Day. The disciples, greatly troubled and full of doubts could not believe the "Good News" brought . by the women. Into their midst comes our Lord saying "Peace be with you". The presence of the risen Christ restores the disciples belief and gives them the con- fidence to begin the task set before them. Christ invites each of us to receive this same peace, which passes all understanding, by believing in the Risen Christ. Itis this peace which gives us the courage to face our troubles not only in the futurebutnow. When we live our belief, .we find a witness in ourselves to the reality of Christ. Up -coming Events: The junior choir will be singing in the Kiwanis Music Festival, Friday, May 15 at 7:00 p.m. - St. Michael's Roman Catholic Church, 515 Cheapside St. London.

Plans are being made for a celebration of the 75th an- niversary of the present church building on Sunday, June 26th. More details later. Emphasize non -person at Country Homemakers How to make a non -person was emphasized at the fifth annual meeting of Town and Country Ilomemakers in Blyth on April 6. Ministry of Health activa- tion consultant Elaine Baillie told those in attendance that there are three ways to make a patient a non -person - to confuse him. take away his in- dividual identity and take away his independence. She examplified her theories by presenting a film entitled How To Make A Non -Person. "i've shown it, not to be critical, hut to help redevelop an awareness," said Mrs. Baillie. The Ministry of Health con- sultant said there is one word she would like to see out of the English language and that is senility. • "it is important to recognize that 'under stress we all do strange things," said Mrs. Baillie. She clarified her statement by pointing out absent- minded things she has done, but because of her age she is not considered senile. Communication is also im- portant said Mrs. Baillie and she pointed nut how if a per- son is on the receiving end of instructions with no oppor- tunity to clarify what is being said, there could be confusion. She put the audience to the test by giving out 10 oral in- structions without giving the opportunity to ask questions. Most of the audience did poorly. Mrs. Baillie then presented the situation where a nurse quickly tells an elderly hard - of -hearing patient to put their sweater on and leaves before the patient understands what is being said. "What frequently happens is the nurse comes hack and finds the patient wandering. Then the judgement is made that something is wrong. 1 suggest that something is wrong with the communica- tion," said Mrs. Baillie. As part of the annual meeting, the board of direc- S.H.D.H.S. Gymnastic Team Huron -Perth and WOSSA Champions present Spring Flip Award winning gymnastics routines plus rhythmics, modern, synchronized and more. Refreshments after performance.

Tony Jones, Ed Morrison Times -Advocate, April 13, 1983 Pogo 23 Area cadets off to Biller shooting •vent For Canadians the army has been a little and it - publicized yet vital part of our heritage. Two local young cadets have achieved the honour of ` representing Canada at the Com- monwealth Shooting Competi- tion in Risley, England this summer. Master Warrant Officer Ed Morrison and Warrent Officer Tony Jones, grade 10 and grade 12 students respective- iHuion High Schoat Soul h 1, were choseni ct oto be part of the Royal Canadian Army Cadets t RCAC t Bisley Team at a final selection in Victoria;' British Columbia. The two largebore shooters learned of such opportunities quite by accident as their cadet leader discovered a pamphlet describing the com- petitions. Morrison and Jones were accepted to attend a ri- fle coach course at Canadian Forces Base Borden two years ago. Two yasars with on- ly a few competitions and lit- tle training has culminated in the privilege of being Cana- dian ambassadors in Europe. The cadets' shooting abili- ty at the course was outstan- ding enough to place them in the top 20 in Ontario. This achievement qualified Mor- rison and Jones for the Na- tional Matches in Ottawa last August. From the loOselected cadets 25 were chosen for the • concentration in British Col- umbia from March 27 to April 4. After intense competition Jones and Morrison were of the 18 picked to go to Risley. Jones emphasizes that "shooting is a civilian sport, just like any other sport. It really has nothing to do with cadets." The cadets compete alongside civilians in all competitions. Shooting is a very technical sport. There is far more in- volved than simply cocking and shooting. The shooters must calculate and compen- sate for wind, rain, optical heat illusions and other weather factors. Morrison and Jones find the actual shooting part easier than the mental calculation and preparation. The cadets shoot with a civilian rifle at a target from 300-1000 yards. They must be able to shoot and make ad- justments within a certain time limit, requiring quick physical and mental capabilities. However the concentration at . Esquimault Base in Vic- toria B.C. was far more than a shooting competition. Jones felt "It was a really tense week. They were always observing you and no one knew who made it until the last day." Ml finalists were scrutinized at all times by their superior officers. Their attitude towards others, behaviour, confidence and even their eating habits were judged on equal basis with their shooting ability. Canada wants the best ambassadors to represent us in England. I1 is unusual for two cadets to qualify from such a close area; both Jones and Mor- rison live in Huron Park. They are the first cadets 'to ever qualify from this area. The competition is not male dominated as four girls will also travel to Europe and were among the best shooters. Jones and Morrison will leave July 1 for England after a week's training in Ottawa. Three weeks will be spent ' shooting at Bisle against 1200 civilian and cadets from the Commonweafth. The cadets will be free for two weeks to tour England and the continent. Jones has many English relatives to visit during his free time. At the completion of six weeks the cadets will return to Ot- tawa for one week of training and the National Matches in August. Their travels are complete- ly paid for but the cadets have had financial difficulty- with equipment and travel ex- penses for pre -England com- petitions. They have received help from the local cadets and legions. As Bisley qualifiers, Mor- rison and Jones are expected to compete in many civilian shoots and provide most of their equipment. Prior to their July departure they will travel every weekend to On- tario competitions to prepare for the Commonwealths. Jones has shelved a promis- Mrs. Hogarth has been away. At Easter we made baskets and we coloured eggs. We made Easter lilies to take home. Jeremy's Dad- dy brought three real bunnies to school for us to see. Grade 1 Room 10 Easter Hats - Each student in Room 9 made an Easter hat for the Easter Assembly. They made the hats at home during March break. Each person told the class how they made their hat as they modelled it for the class. Flowers, stuffed bunnies, rib- bons, bows, real eggs, and buttons were used on the hats. Some decorated real hats, tin and styrofoam plates and some made the hat part from hard paper. The class created a rhyme about each Easter hat. Each student modelled their hat and said their verse in the assembly. My verse was: "My Easter bonnet was yellow like the' sun. Decorating it was lots of fun." Kelly Austin The Guess Who Zoo - We read "The Guess Who Zoo" in our reader. The children in the story made zoo animals from blankets, rope, pipes and tables. We made an elephant. First we spread a blanket over a table. Then we hung a tail of white string at the back. We rolled up a towel for a trunk and pinned it to the blanket. The face was cut from paper and pinned on. We cut ears from the flaps of a box. Five of us worked on the project. It took us one hour. The hardest part was pinning on the tail and trunk. Paul Martin, Kelly Austin, Liette Clarke, Brian Brand, Christie Mosurinjohn A Child of Long Ago - April 7 Room 9 went to the London Regional Childrens' Museum in London. The display was called "A child of Long Ago" Anne, the guide showed slides of people and places of 1883. After the slides the students went out and played in the display. Girls dressed in pinafores and bonnets. Boys wore caps and aprons. One Activity was playing in the General Store. Another was playing in the railway station. There was also a kitchen, parlour and back kitchen to the house, and a schoolroom. The students printed with a quill and ink. Everyone liked the display but most decided they would not want to have lived in 1883 for very long. ltoom 9 Spelunking at the Regional Childrens' Museum - When we went to the Spelunker's Spree at the Childrens Museum they had a pretend cave for you to walk through. When you first walked in, there was water dripping down into a pool. 1 didn't know until she told us that an electric pump pumped water up some pipes in the wall. Then it fell to the little pool. So they didn't have to keep getting water, the water that fell in would go through the pump again. Darren Mason Cave people had to choose a cave with a flat bottom so they could steep. They would want a dry cave but a little pool might be nice. They • OFF TO ENGLAND Area cadets Tony Jones and Ed Morrison will be off to England to represent Canada in a Commonwealth shooting competition. Tiger Times from Stephen Central hunted animals for food. They drew pictures on the wall of what they wanted to catch when they hunted. Cave peo- ple really knew how to draw well. Every drawing is just so perfect that they look Meal. Justin Turnbull, - Jodi Armstrong In one cave there were some pet rats in a cage. 1 was afraid at first but they were cute, black and furry. Pack rats often live in the mouth of caves. We saw a bat in the cave up on the roof. The bats hung by attaching the claws of its feet to the stone. Deep down in real caves there ore a lot of animals that have no colour because the sun never reaches them. We saw slides of some insects, animals and fish that live where no sun shines. Brian Payne, Kristy Dobson, Jeff Easton Some people go to caves t6 explore. If they don't get all they want to know they sometimes take clothing and sleeping bags to sleep in the cave. I don't think 1 could sleep deep in a cave..It would be scary and there are dif- ferent kinds of bats . There is a "pinch" between caves. I thought I was stuck when I came to the end. but it was just a little squeeze to get through. Jennifer Pickering Hock formations are built over thousands of years. Stalagmites–and stalactites are really just rockicides. it takes about seven years to join the two parts to make a column even if the space is only 5 cm! A soda straw is a hollow rock tube. Gypsum Flowers are thin petal -like gypsum minerals. The strips look like a chrysanthemum. Shane Pfaff ALL STAR STYLE - - John Mol who was named to the centre position on the London Free °rens all star basket- ball teom shows his dunking prowess: ing field hockey career to devote his summer to shooting. Both cadets will benefit an/I learn a lot from this once in a lifetime ex- perience. One can only be a member of the Risley team once. Morrison and Jones have reached the top in Canada and will strive to repre.eat their country well in the commonwealth.
