t 4-Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, May 25, 1988 Lishman work at Orono show Orono Soccer Pee Wees open season with 4-3 win The above 35 foot dragon along with other pieces of large sculptures are on view at Canada's Wonderland, north of Toronto. The pieces are the work of Wm. Lishman and Associates Limited of Whitby. Bill Lishman will have some exhibits exhibits at the Orono Outdoor Art Festival this Saturday. The Festival should prove an interesting interesting event with some 20 artists displaying their work in various fields of art. Orono Peewees opened their season with an exciting 4 - 3 victory over Bowman ville, the Orono squad dominated the first ten minutes but Bowmanville scored two goals on only two forays down the field. Such misfortune might have destroyed Orono's momentum but to their credit they fought back to tie the score 3-3. Cameron Esler's left-footed blast to the top corner got the comeback started and Greg' Hooper with the help of other forwards, Scott Hentig, Scott McAllister, Scott Hall, Tyler Bates . With a couple of hours on Monday Monday to pickup "Landmarks", a Ministry of Natural Resources magazine, a publication to which I subscribe to off and on due to the fact that I get disturbed with some of its self-esteem and then let the subscription lapse. However after the lose of a couple issues I pay up for another term. Going through the spring edition I find a note from a K. Williams of Orono who points out that he and his wife are seniors and live within 1,000 yards of the Wilmot Creek. Mr. Williams speaks of their interest interest in a recent article on the possible return of Atlantic Salmon to the Wilmot and await such a day. He notes he has fished these Salmon in Nova Scotia. Another article to catch my attention, attention, "No Flight of Fancy", bird watching is a serious and fascinating activity. The article describes the hype such an activity has for individuals and these are many. It brought to mind that 1 have been somewhat aware of a change in my own birding activities and the song of birds now plays a big part in the outing. Its not a matter of trying to look , under every leaf in a tree or Shrub but rather to stroll along listening to the sounds that birds make and their songs are most prédominent in the early morning. As a result there has been a number yf early morning trips to the Kendal Park and along some of the mixed wood and field corridors in the Ganaraska. I can still get back in time for work or at least to make an appearance. Your ear is always open for a new sound or one that may be returning from its winter vacation. Or it may be one you are doubtful of and then out comes the binoculars and the séarch begins. When talking about the sound of birds there is at least one other and this came to the forefront a couple of weeks ago when Donna and I travelled to Picton to visit, Nancy, Jim and the two grandsons. On previous trips I had scouted some possible likely sights for spring spring arrivals of birds and it was to one of these that we visited leaving the house just prior to seven o'clock. 1 must say it was a good choice, mature hardwoods, some underbrush underbrush and at a lake point in Prince Edward county and as well with some open space. It really had a wide variety of habitat. Our sightings ranged from warblers to Rufous-sided Towhees, Verrys, White crowned,,'and White throated sparrows, Killdeer with a brood of five and even to Upland P ( lovers and Rough winged Swallows. At one point in the hardwood bush edge I pointed out to Nancy if we would keep quiet you could hear the White throated Sparrows rustling rustling through the dry leaves. In total , quiteness it sounded like a army of miniatures passing through to points further north. Nancy even exclaimed it was hard to believe. But there had to be hundreds passing passing through in an almost continual procession. For Jim it was the Rufous-sided Towhee, a name he was about to remember. Its not only sight but. sound, music to one's ears.

This concern has induced a two- year study of children living near Nuclear Plants. The nuclear regulatory agency decided recently to proceed with the project after learning earlier in the year of a British study that reported an increase in the number of ' leukemia deaths in children born near the Sellafield nuclear fuel reprocessing plant at Seascale, West Cumbria. The AECB study will involve children up to 14 years of age and born within 15 kilometres of reactors reactors at Pickering, Chalk River and Rolphton, and the uranium fuel refinery at Port Hope. The previously measured radiation doses of parents employed at the plants will also be reviewed. Any firm evidence of concentrations concentrations of leukemia among the children will result in a detailed study and examinations of populations populations around other nuclear operations, operations, the board decided. Studies in both the U.S. and Britain Britain have found concentrations of childhood leukemia near some nuclear facilities. But they are regarded as inconclusive because higher concentrations have also been found in areas remote from nuclear plants, and other nuclear operations are free of the problem. Other British studies suggest pollution and biological factors may have an impact oh the higher rates of leukemia in'some districts. Nevertheless, the" AECB decided to proceed with its own study and committed $110,000 over the next three years to finance the project. A project manager on the AECB staff will be named to oversee the operation, and a panel of health and medical experts will be appointed appointed to establish guidelines and review the findiilgs of the study. A contract agency or consultant will conduct the study. The study is to be completed by May 31, 1990. and Evan Davies notched two more. Tyler Bates, substituting for older brother Brendan, gave both squads a lesson in tackling despite a 3 to 4 age difference. In the closely played second lithe lithe Orono defense of Sean McKr. zie, Shellie Nowak and goalie, Todd Graves, came up big to hold Bowmanville scoreless. Sean made one particularly outstanding play clearing the ball from the goalmouth with only opponents in the immediate vicinity. Cameron Esler put the game on ice (an inappropriate inappropriate comment considering the evenings heavy rain) with a well placed penalty shot. He also came very close to scoring on a corner kick with a beautiful banana curve. The mid-field trio of Cameron, Dan Walters, and Richard Vernon played strongly and Orono will need all three at top form to be successful successful throughout the season. Keep up the good work, team!
