The Wingham Advance Times, 1995-08-09, Page 8TIE NNW ilPVANCETIMES Lisle, Campbell congratulated Dear Editor: I read with interest your last week's report of the accomplish- ments of Julie Lisle at the Junior National Track and Field Champi- onships at British Columbia. Having been involved with pole vaulting for several years I was par- ticularly interested in Julie setting the Junior Women's Canadian record in the vault. I am sure we all congratulate Julie on this accom- Media coverage vindictive, says letter writer Dear Editor: In opening, I send my respect and thank -you to several of our public citizens who •have stood in support of our local physician and two nurses who have been recently implicated for a failure to report child abuse. The initial media coverage of this issue would lead all to believe that: 1. There was no intention to report a case of abuse. 2,. Medical personnel had "some- thing to hide". Of utmost importance in trauma management is "The Golden Hour". By this, I refer to the fact that medical management of the pa- tient during the first hour post- trauma ultimately determines their recovery status. Regardless of our profession, our first concern must be immediate treatment of the trau- ma victim's injuries„end provision of a safe environment. The editorial in the August 2 is- sue entitled "Doesn't Anyone Care About the Kid?” suggests that peo- ple were not concerned for the in- jured child's condition. I don't be- lieve the media has access to that information for public inquiries. It is confidential. The assumption that no one cares for the child's condi- tion, based on a lack of newspaper office inquiries, is a vindictive and unjust assumption, The bare truth is that articles such as these sell next week's pub-. lication, without concern for the feelings of anyone; be it .victim, ors, Darlene Lynette Hemingway honors with distinction, Mary Ru family, or medical .persons.

I think another person who de- serves congratulations at this time is her pole vault coach Bob Camp- bell. With Julie's record jump, Mr. Campbell now has coached the present Canadian record holders in Women's Junior, Men's Junior, and Men's Senior pole vault. Few other coaches can claim such success. Even though Mr. Campbell re- tired from the F.E. Madill staff some five years ago, he remains ac- tive in coaching pole vault at the schools. .

But it was work — a full Saturday morning of work. Besides cleaning out a three- storey mill which has been board- ed up for many years, enthusiastic parents and children catalogued machinery. If they didn't know what they were looking at, they described it as best they could. One massive piece of equipment on the ground floor was unknown, even to an ex- pert who dropped by to have a look. Before the old machines and equipment were set back against the walls of the building, their original positions were noted on a grid plan of the floor. Photographs were also taken of the equipment. The old Gorrie Mill which has stood on the same spot on the south bank of the Maitland River for well over a hundred years has turned, into the Maitland Mill Pro- ject, co-sponsored by Howick Township volunteers and the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority. The aim of the project is to re- store the old mill and turn the site into a historic and cultural re- source. The first phase of the pro- ject is to have the mill and its gift shop open in May 1996. By the year 2006, which is Howick's 150th birthday, the com- mittee plans. to have the mill ma- chinery operational for demon- stration purposes only. GOOD KNOWLEDGE. As is. usually the "case when a community takes on a restoration project, besides enthusiasm and a willingness to work, a considera- ble amount of specialized knowl- edge surfaces. Jim Hopkins of RR 1, Gorrie who heads the Mill and Machine Committee is knowledgeable in the tool and die trade. His assist- ant, Ron Henhoeffer of RR 1, Gorrie is a millwright. The project View frorn...south bank of Maitland River. has tumed into a labor of love for the two men. Linda Henhoeffer and Howick Twp. Coun. Rosemary Rognvald- son are credited with spearhead- ing the project. Diane Hopkins is just as enthusiastic as her hus- band, and her two sons; all were on hand to help on clean-up day. Besides the Henhoeffer and Hopkins families and Coun. Rognvaldson, Rev.

Besides the manual work at the mill, the Maitland Valley Conser- vation Authority has engaged the services of a student to research the old mill. Hired under a summer employ- ment program, the student, Mary Feldskov, is a native of Howick Township with a special interest. in the project: Box 390 5 Diagonal Road Wingham, Ontario NOG 2W0 attdigt61'xd04�r. ..uh'ZZEMYaeD'.C.R/ Fy si 1. z n r c� z A.R.
