MEMBER HURON REAL ESTATE BOARD (Multiple Listing Service) CCK GK 0 0 0 O 0 AA y0A 0 0 0 0 Car {» }1 Gr ss is n act By Wendy Somerville Four years ago Carol Gross of Blyth became involved in a sport that many assume is an activity limited to bar counters and kitchen tables. What started out as an act of stupidity according to Carol became an awakening. Paul Gross, Carol's husband secretly registered he and his wife in the Canadian Arm Wrestling Championships held in Toronto. "Paul filled out the registration form for himself and then I saw him fill out another, before I knew it I was registered and I had never arm wrestled before, not even for fun ! " laughed Carol. Carol won the Canadian championship that year at the Canadian National Exhibi- tion ( CNE) . Since then she has collected seven large trophies, two medallions, three flight bags, several Labatt mugs and some prize money. At present, Carol is ranked sixth in Canada and she recently won the Niagara Regional tournament held a couple of weeks ago. Right now it looks like another member of the Gross family may become involved in the strenuous sport. Paul and Carol have two children, Kevin 11, and Dawn 9. Kevin, according to Carol is becoming more and more interested in his parent's sport. "If we have anyone over who arm wrestles, Kevin is right in there wanting to join in." Apparently Kevin was involved in an children's arm wrestling tournament in Listowel; he didn't win but at age 11, he was one of the youngest participants. Blyth tournament In the spring of this year Paul asked the owner of the Blyth Inn if an arm wrestling tournament could be held at his establish- ment. Pleased with the proposition, the owner agreed. On November 5, the Blyth Inn will host the tournament at 2 p.m. Registration is at 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. Applicants must weigh in at registration time. There are three weight classes; 165 pounds and under is light weight, 166 to 200 pounds is middle weight and heavy weight is 201 pounds and over. Men who rer'icter roust be weighed and i St ity categorized but women registering are not required to weigh m because they nave an open class. Paull and Carol will be referee- ing the tournament, and both are hoping for a large turn out. "The tournament held at the Duke in Goderich had 50 people registered and there were so many spectators that there was standing room only," remembered Carol. Carol and Paul will not be participating as contestants during the November 5 tourna- ment because they are both involved in a larger tournament in Hamilton on November 12- "I don't want to compete at the Blyth Inn because I may wreck my arm for the Hamilton Tournament and the fact that I am refereeing may be a conflict of interest; said Carol. Popular sport Carol agrees that arm wrestling is becom- ing more and more popular. "When we started four years ago, we were the only ones involved in the sport in this area, today a lot of local people are in- terested and are signing up for tour- naments." According to Carol, when she first became involved in the sport there were 200 people registered at the Canadian Arm Wrestling Championships in Toronto. This year there were 500 participants. With more and more people flexing their biceps and attending large tournaments across Canada and the United States, one would think that Carol would find it hard to find time to be a wife and mother as well as work at Blyth's Village Restaurant. "Arra wrestling doesn't take that much of my time," she explained. "In the larger cities in Canada and the United States some participants practise every day in gyms and tournaments. I just practise when I can at home and with friends." Besides the obvious physical benefits such as muscle buildup and mental concentra- tion, arm wrestling has other advantages. "Paul and I have met an awful lot of in- teresting people and they are all friendly, but once you get up to the table they are strictly arm wrestlers." Redmen score first point CHSS was a fairly uninteresting place to be last week, except for one sports event which stood out as a landmark occurrence. Yes, sports fans, the Senior Redmen Foot- ball Team have scored their first point of the season. Unfortunately, m that football game, the opposition scored considerably more. The final score was 22 to 1 for the visiting Listowel team. Some of ' you may wonder why this loss to Listowel is such a big deal. Well, when previous scores have been 28-0, 20-0, and 22- 0, 22 to 1 can look pretty good. So the record isn't very good. Big deal. The major thing is that after several years of absence, CHSS once again has a senior football team. Fund raising flop Last week, the Go For Gold fund raising campaign came to an end. This campaign, which involved selling books of coupons to raise money for Students Council. Unfor- tunately, student enthusiasm and participa- tion was very low, and Go For Gold was a financial failure. Wisely, Students Council has decided to find out what products students would go out and sell in future fund raising campaigns. In homeroom one day last week, each student filled out a paper indicating which of several fund raising ideas they felt would be most successful. With this direct student input, we can look for the next fund raising campaign to be the great success Go For Gold was hoped to have been. Architect wins $1000 award Nicholas Hill of the architectural and town planning firm of Hill and Borgal in Goderich is the recipient of a $1,000 award given annually by the South -Western Ontario Chapter of the Canadian Institute of Planners. The award is based upon the submission of a paper to be delivered to the annual general meeting of the Canadian Institute of Planners. Nicholas Hill's paper entitled "The Preservation of Character of Place" is to be given in the Fall of 1984. Nicholas Hill and his firm of Hill and Borgal have built up a provincial wide reputation in the planning of small towns and villages with particular emphasis on the preservation of the character of place. At a time when many small communities are in the throes of change and regeneration, the essential character of the traditional downtown shopping areas, residential streets, mill ponds and Lakeshore landscape are often threatneed. Nicholas Hill's paper will focus in on what the essential and cherished characteristics of our towns and villages are, ant' how they Might be preserved into the future. Hill and Borgal's planning in the County of Huron has. included downtown beautification projects in Goderich, Clinton, Hensall and Brussels and heritage con- servation district plans also for Goderich and Bayfield. They have just completed a main street improvement plan for Blyth which includes the hanging of colored banners to celebrate the street and its theatre festival. The immediate planning project, due for completion by the end of this year, is a plan to conserve and restore historic buildings on Main Street in Seaforth. All these projects are requested by the municipalities either through their councils, business communities or Local Architectural Conservation Advisory Committees. 4 -H's get special makeup Smiling Smurfettes The 5th meeting of Clinton I Smiling Smurfettes was held at St. Paul's Church. At this meeting, we invited a Mary Kay consul- tant Dianne Dale from Goderich. All of the girls had a facial. She told us how to put it on and when we were done, we all looked nice. - by Shelley Hutchings. Fitness Friends On Oct. 4 the Fitness Friends met for a Facial done by a Mary Kay consultant and hosted by our leader Bev Van Ninhuys. After we arrived we were given a sheet to fill out on our skin type. Then we cleansed and moisturized our faces before putting on the makeup, Mary Kay.

After saying goodbye and thankyou to the consultant we left for'a fun -filled lunch followed by an interesting craft show in Goderich. Then we headed home to work on Meeting V in our books and to go over last weeks Home Activities. Meeting V was on your teeth and eyes and how to take care of them. After saying the motto, we said goodbye till next Saturday when Cathy will bring the drinks and Denise will bring the snacks. - by Diane Bradshaw.
