This Sunday a game between the only two undefeated teams in the league Exeter Centennials and Nairn ended in a 1-1 tie. The Exeter-Lucan game played before the Grand Bend -Exeter Driller game in which Grand Bend won 4-2 saw Exeter take a 2-0 lead. Shawn Rotteau headed a cross ball from Jerry Vandewalle to put Exeter in front. Paul Vandewalle scored the second goal on a long shot that took the Lucan goalie completely by surprise. Lucan pressed hard tying the game 2-2 at half. The Centennials scored early in the second half with Paul Vandewalle getting his se- cond goal. The Centennials feeling the effect of the night . before dance in which they were raising money for the Hippern eighth in all of Ontario Qualifying for OFSAA, the ,all -Ontario track and field meet is an ultimate goal for high school athletes. Two of South Huron's three OFSAA competitors were disap- pointed with their perfor- mances at Centennial Stadium in Kitchener last Fri- day and Saturday. However, Derek Hippern had reason to be pleased. His 51 metre throw in the junior boy's javelin was eighth in Ontario. Hippern has thrown fartheribut Saturday's rain on the grass run-up made it dif- ficult to get firm footing. This was Hippern's first OFSAA ,appearance but should not be the last for the grade eleven student. The rain also hampered the promising efforts of grade nine Dave Woodfine in midget boys discus. A miscalculation caused his first throw to land outside the boundary. Thrown off, Woodfine faulted on his remaining two throws. (,I'SAA •is a bad time to fault but Woodfine should have four more OFSAA's to prove his ability. His best throw would have placed him in the top five of the province. Susan McClure was also disappointed. Not being able to train for a week because of pall* teti'doris she ran poor- ly in the senior girls 400 metre spring with a slow time of 62.1 seconds. She could not run the 400 m hurdles, which is her better race, because Northern Ontario sent all their qualifiers. Exeter native Dave Shaw, who competes for Seaforth High' School placed third at OFSAA. Ile threw 56.7 metres in senior boys javelin. With track and field finish- ed the high school sports season is over. The year has been very successful for South Huron athletes.

He revealed that despite widespread publicity and public discussion over what has come to be called "The Trust Companies Af- fair," there continue to be -serious problems with the On- tario Government's ad- ministration of the Loan and Trust Corporations Act. Failure to assure com- pliance with the Act has the potential to place upward pressure on some apartment rent levels. It's been discovered that, once again, some tenants are in jeopardy of substantial rental increases to fund questionable mortgag- ing of apartment properties. Apparent violations of the Loan and Trust Corporations Act have also occurred. Citing specific examples on Eglinton Avenue East, Lakeshore Road and Dan- forth Road, David Peterson. pointed out that based on the immediate prior year's rents and operating costs, the new owners of the properties would require in excess of a 30 percent increase to meet the debt service requirements on mortgages. The timing of the transac- tions is particularly signifi- cant, since they span and follow the time when the much -publicized Cadillac - Fairview deal was receiving public attention and the government moved against three trust companies in the face of questionable mortgag- ing practices: What these transactions reveal - strikingly so in the wake of the government's postponed decisions and regulatory' failures - is that the very serious set of pro- blems which Were highlighted in the Trust Companies Affair is continuing. It reveals that the Loan and Trust Corpora- tions Act is being violated with a potential risk to depositors. The government has left both Rent Review and Trust Company regulation in a state of limbo; and we are seeing the results of this indecision. The government has allow- ed the same set of problems that characterized the Trust Companies Affair - sloppy regulation and resulting up- ward pressure on rental levels - to continue. GB issue going to court A long standing problem. involving the enforcement of a village bylaw, has been passed 00 to provincial court. it was learned at Monday's meeting of (;rand Rend coon cll. A summons was issued against Joseph Nader. Friday as a result of the use of a 'storage shed' on the bank of the river 1x'Iow the west boun- dary 01 81 Crescent The building in question is on a narrow strip of river bank property which has leen designated as environmental protection. Under the zoning in the official pian, building structures up to 50 percent are allowed in conforming uses, -mostly to do with marina activity Dwelling use is specifically defined and not permitted In the fall, Nader moved a prefabricated motel unit to the site. The village put a stop•work order on the pro- perty. :After a member of - council witnessed furniture being moved into the unit, a request for a sever hook-up permit was denied. 1t was then learned that a c'hemic'al toilet had been in stalled and that shower and tap water was being run directly into the river. Jack Davis, counsultant„ appeared at the meeting to try to mediate the dispute on behalf of Nader. Ile suggested that the village had a "vendetta" with Nader and that Nader's interpretation of the bylaw, in its defining of 'storage shed'. might be a mistake. The response of council was to leave it to the court to decide. Davis asked, that if Nader removed all amenities which pertained to dwelling in the building, would council withdraw objections. Harold Green, Deputy Reeve, said there would have to -be air- tight safeguards to assure that, once the village agreed, the building would never become a dwelling place. Councillor Dennis Snider said that Nader had "broken the spirit of our agreement." Ile said he had spoken to Nader directly about village restrictions. Reeve Bob Sharen coin- , mented to Davis that there was obviously a lack of trust. At one meeting in tfie spring, it was suggested that the bylaw should be changed to allow Tess building on e p designations. County plan- ners told council not to "go around changing bylaws for special cases" but rather to enforce existing bylaws. The court date is set for June 24 in Grand Bend. A letter of complaint from Mary Williams, a resident of iluron Street, regarding noise on the first long weekend was met with a flurry of comment from Reeve Bob Sharen. "Bruce r Woodley ► and 1 at- tended seven parties between 12:30 and 3 a.m. Most of them quieted downwith awarning. For one we called for back-up cfrom (iPP). if people are making these cotnplaints, they should be prepared to be court witnesses." He men- tioned that fines, for con- travention of village by-laws can be as stiff as $1,000 per person and that absentee owners may also he charged and fined. ' Other business included discussion of the need to revamp the traffic light system, discussion of minutes from the various committees and an announcement that the official openings of the tri - municipal fire hall and cemetery will be held June 24 and 25. By Jack Riddell MPP The Liberal Caucus has en- dorsed in principle the Report on Pornography and Censor- ship of the Ontario Liberal Women's Perspective Ad- visory Committee. As David Peterson pointed out at his news conference on the ques- tions, there are appalling - even frightening - differences between much of today's por- nographic material and the comparatively harmless "old-fashioned" soft porn of a few years ago. There is absolutely no com- - parison between the stag movies and "girlie" magazines of yesterday and the violent; degrading, bestial type of pornographic material which is • now available...material which is totally offensive to the ma- jority of men as well as to women. In the course of presenting its report and recommendations to the Liberal Caucus, the Advisory Committee arranged a meeting between Caucus Members and police officers from Metro's' "Project P". Caucus members were brought shockingly up-to-date with recent developments in the field of pornography. in coming to grips with the growing menace of the "new" pornography, we must give urgent attention to the com- plex question of developing an effective method of reconcil- ing the crucial and urgent need to tackle this problem head on and our inherent• abhorrence, as a democratic society, of the concept of cen- sorship, with all that entails. The Advisory Committee recommended changes in the definition of "obscene" under Canada's Criminal Code, and in the Customs Tariff Act which covers entrance of materials into Canada. At the provincial level, it called for the Attorney -General to exer- cise his prosecutorial discre- tion to prefer indictment and consider greater penalties in the interests of general and specific deterrence. Similarly, the Solicitor - General should exercise his responsihlity over law en- forcement to enforce more aggressively the provision of Section 168 of the Code, par- ticularly with respect to broadcasters and film- makers. Also recommended is amendment of the Municipal Act to make its provisions mandatory rather than permissive, and opaque barriers at a height of no less than five feet for adult publications. It 'S recommended that the jurisdiction of the Ontario Board of Censors be extend- ed to include commercially produced videotapes. David Peterson called for the immediate establishment of a Select Committee charg- ed with developing guidelines for"communitystandards" to be written into the Regula- tions of the Theatres Act, and an effective method of ensur- ing implementation of such guidelines. He wants the Committee to report to the Legislature immediately it reconvenes in the Fail, and to hear witnesses from all sec- tors. in addition, the Commit- tee should review the situa- tion after 12 months have elapsed. team from Arkona end up with .the Drillers winning the first game of the season 3-2. In the second game the Centennials had a tough game as it was for first place. The first half with neither team getting any good scoring op- portunities ended 0-0 with the play mainly centred at mid field. In the second half Nairn ,pressed hard but goalie Blair Burbridge and fullbacks Joe Laurie, John Razenburg and Peter Cyzpha came up strong to shut them outuntil thelast minute of the game when Nairn finally scored. Exeter scored early on a direct kick by John Flanagan that caught the corner, Exeter had some other close chances but failed to up the score. This leaves the Exeter Centennials and Nairn tied for first place with three wins and a tie each. Grand Bend is in third with Lucan fourth, the Drillers fifth and Taxandria last. The Centennials travel to Huron Park to play Grand Bend next Sunday at 2 p.m: Thanks to all who supported in making the first Exeter Soccer Association dance a success. The Rudy -Davis band were well liked and are tentatively booked for next year around the same time. SHDHS .girl goes to forum Kathryn Schade of South Huron District High School, Exeter, is among over 100 students from across Canada who will be participating in the fourth session of the Forum for Young Canadians, June 25 to July 2. Kathryn is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Schade of Dashwood. Each year, the Forum for Young Canadians brings to the Nation's Capital, from every province and territory in Canada, four hundred students who will be given the opportunity to discuss the pro- cesses of government with those who are in decision- making positions. The students selected to participate in the Forum for Young Canadians' unique educational programme are provided the rare privilege of sitting in the House of Com- mons and in the Senate. They will be visiting the Supreme Court of Canada and will he participating in a mock Cabinet discussion on im- migration as well as staging a Federal -Provincial Conference. By the endof their one- . week programme, the students would have learned about the difficulties and complexities of how .their government operates and will have acquired a better understanding of their fellow Canadians from across the land. Students rely on the generous support of local organizations to assist them in paying their fees for the course and the share of travel costs not covered by a grant from the Secretary of State. In addition to her parents' financial support, Kathryn has received assistance from the South Huron District High School, the Students' Council and the Exeter Legion. Co -Op juniors After . a number of postponements due to wet weather, the Exeter Co -Op juniors got underway this week •in the Great Lakes senior baseball league and suffered a pair of defeats. In Kincardine Thursday,. the reals dropped an 8-6 deci- sion and Sunday they were on the short end of a 7-5 score to Strathroy. The juniors will take on the Exeter Express at 6:15 p.m. tomorrow night Thursday and will take on Kincardine Sun- day afternoon at 5 p.m. also on the Exeter diamond. In the loss to Kincardine, Exeter runs came in the last two innings. In the sixth Al Gaiser walked and came around to score on a wild pitch and a walk to Wayne Laporte. In the seventh walks to Kevin Drager and Dwayne Laporte and singles from the bats of Paul Gilmour, Mike Neil and Marty Bedard pro- duced the final five Exeter runs. Two Strathroy runs in the top of the ninth inning allow- ed the visitors to beat the Ex- eter juniors 7-5. The first Exeter runs came in the fourth when Paul Gilmour walked and Dave Hayter and Dave Shaw singl- ed and all crossed the plate. Doug Hoffman's single sent Dwayne Laporte who had doubled home with the fourth Exeter run in the fifth frame. Dave Shaw doubled with one out in the sixth and pinch runner Brian Horner scored on a similar hit from the bat of Marty Bedard.
