The 10th annual Grand Bend canoe race will be held Sunday in conjunction with the weekend Burgerfest Days at the summer resort. Sponsored jointly by the Ausable-Bayfield Conser- vation Authority and the Grand Bend Chamber of Com- merce, the race is split into nine divisions with the star- ting and finishing points at the south Side of the river at the lakefront in Grand Bend.' The kayak and senior men's events go a distance of 16 miles with all others going eight miles. The only ex- ception is the event open to handicapped persons. It goes about a milefrom the edge of the lake to the Highway 21 bridge in Grand Bend and return. Anyone wishing further information on the races should contact secretary Helen Boogemans in Hensall at 262-2439 or the Ausable-Bayfield Conservation office at 235-2610. Official animal The Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters has petitioned Premier William Davis asking that an official animal be named for the province of Ontario to go with the white pine, white trillium and the amethyst as of- ficial emblems of the province. The moose is the animal proposed by the anglers and hunters. The accompanying press release states, "The moose is Ontario's lar=gest indigenous animal, a strong and vital link with our heritage and clearly wor- thy of the greatest distinction. To many people, moose, wilderness and Ontario are synonymous. The Ontario Federation of Afiglers and Hunters with 46,000 members is Ontario's largest provincial con- servation organization. This group has also forwarded a resolution to -the Ministry of Natural Resources asking that the wearing of hunters' blaze orange be mandatory during the gun hunting seasons for big game, upland game -and small game. They ask for a minimum of 500 square inches of blaze orange to be worn on the back, chest and head of hunters saying this amount of illumination will. cut ac- cidents by 75 percent. Cloak and dagger'tactics When next year's National Hockey League draft ap- pears on national television probably on the first Satur- day in June, one of the 21 clubs will have to be very original to upstage the Montreal Canadiens on Satur- day's show. The Canadiens newest general manager Serge Savard kept a guest underne4 stands of the Montreal Forum until 3:22 Saturday afternoon when he surpris- ed the gathered crowd and thousands of others on the - picture media by selecting Petra Svoboda from Czechoslovakia. Svoboda was so new to Canada having arrived in Montreal Friday that the only English words he knew were Coca-Cola. He actually defected from his home country in mid- April by simply walking out of the arena in Badholz, West Germany and after staying with an unidentified friend of an American born hockey coach Craig Sarner, the young Czech settled with an aunt in Munich. The big battle for Svoboda's services was apparent- ly between Montreal and the Calgary Flames. Cliff Flet- cher of Calgary said his'team virtually baby sat the young Svoboda for 30 days and eventually secured an agreement saying he would come to North America if drafted by the Flames. The Canadiens who had the number five choice compared to 12 for Calgary were much more deman- ding and explicit. Savard insisted he would be drafted only if he was actually in Montreal on the day of the draft, eliminating any possible red tape problems get- ting into the country.
