problems arise
The levels of all the Great
Lakes will he higher this year
than they evere in 1972, except
for Lake Superior. Most of
them will also peak earlier
than normal but be somewhat
lower than originally expected.
The reason for this according to
Dr Frank H Quinn, Chief of
the Lake Hydrology Branch
and expert in hydraulic and
hydrologic- matters at the Lake
Survey, is the tact that
unusually mild weather in
-January caused early run-ott of
precipitation received on the
basin in November and Decem-
.her of7'' .Instead of receiving
winter -stored waiter in March
or early April. the Lakes began
recei\ Ing supplies in -January
thus spreading out the nor-
mally heavy spring -run-off

Sign painter
Every year during Young Canada Week, 88 teams converge
on the town of Goderich to participate in this famous tour-
nament,
Perhaps one of the least thought of parts to the Preparation
of this event is the makeup of the signs which are used on the
scoreboard to designate the tears which are playing at that
time.
The man responsible for this job is Lions Club member Bill
Leeson. Bill had been painting the Lions Club highway display
signs for about the last 10 years. During the past two years, he
has been doing the game signs.
. His service is entirely volunteered while the Lions Club pays
.for the supplies. Besides this, Hill is required tote at the arena
s least once during the week to supervise operations ofr-,the
tournament.
Even though this oncdayts' required, h says that he spends
nearly every day there anyway. Although being responsible for
all -of the signs, Hill states that he enjoys thoroughly being a
part of Young Canada Week.

"One day an old friend of
mine asked me to come and
watch a game with him and
I've been coming ,ever sinc•(.'
These words spoken-,by�Ar-
nold Hossack of R.R. 2
Tldmesford, Ontario, generally
sum up how 'a great tam' ei- of
people first pay a visit to the
annual Goderich Young
Canada Week Hockey. 'I'our-
' nament.
Arnold is 67 years of age and
has been a perennial visitor to
this tournamcent for about the
last 20 years. By calculation, he
has seen approximately 25,00(1
young .hockey players perform
including some that are in the
`pro ranks now.
In rdays gone by, Mr.
Hossack would come up to
Goderich and • spend Jhe week
at the home of his sister Mrs.
Frank Reed on Church Street.

However, about three .YeArs
ago, she moved up to Barrie.
During the last three years he
has come up to Goderich by
himself and stayed at the Bed-
ford Hotel.
Daring the week, he spends
every day at the arena and sees
most of the games played. ,He
feels that the tournament is
very worthwhile and that "it
helps to make a better person
out of the player par-
t icipat Mg,"
One of the reasons -he enjoys
being here so much is that -he
gets a chance to run into olcl
friends who he only see's once -a
year Certainly orie Of his
favourites through the years, is
Mrs. (;race Talbot of Pitt-
sburgh U S.A.
Like Mr Hossack, she has
been a patriot of the 'tour-
nament for several years. Ac -
c -„cording to Nip Whetstone foun-
der of this event, she used to be •
at the arena the first thing in
the morning with a therrnos,
full of coffee and warmly wrap-
ped in a blanket.
She would just sit there in
that one spot watching every
single game .until n>on. After a
'quick kite upstairs, Mrs. Talbot
would get..a refill of coffee and
return to her seat until supper.
Besides watching the games,
she made a special effort to
know. each player's name and
she'developed certain
favourites.
Arnold Hossack regrets that
Mrs. Talbot is not corning for
this year's tournament but he
is looking forward to seeing her
iiexc ,o err lute, 25th anniver-
•sary of Goderich Lions Young
Canada Week.

LOVE
IT!
As the Canadian economy heads into a new year, more and
more businessmen are adopting an attitude or reexamination,
of keener analysis, of an insistence on facts as a basis for
decisions.
In our industries, the signs are unmistakable. Advertisers are -
trimming the fat out of their ad budgets: "Sluslh _funds” are
being mopped up -and wrung dry. Advertising, dollars .are being
called on to give a complete account of themselves...to deliver
maximum effectiveness...to justify their use in an advertising
medium.
Good. The tougher the buyer of advertising gets, the better
we like it. For The Signal Star is 'the one dominating
publication an the area: Dominating in advertising power...ad-
vertising effectiveness...advertising acceptance. The Signal -
Star is the.one publication that decision -makers throughout the
area„ read...respect...rely on.
The more carefully advertisers scrutinize their advertising
decisions, the more certain'they are to decide on The Signal -
Star.
Is your advertising going to really get down to business in
1973? Then step up to The Signal-Star...for The Signal -Star
means business.
