To g of AY] i hi i i Li J 18 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Thursday, Oct. 13, 1977 Sports Lake Scugog pollution Concern over pollution caused by ice fishermen on Lake Scugog was the first problem presented to the Canada-Ontario Rideau- Trent-Severn (CORTS) Ad- visory Committee at their final public meeting for 1977, held in Port Perry, October "There are broken bottles on the ice near the govern- ment wharf where we like to swim in the summer", indicated Ms. Judy Anderson of Caesarea. She went on to say that several of the ice fishing huts are left on the ice in the spring and have to be removed by/the Ministry of Natural Resources. "The hut licence number should be painted on the side so that the ownership could Adults $1.25 0.H.A.

Several in the audience felt the March 31st removal date -was too late for this area and the removal date should be earlier with the possibility of extending it later if ice con- ditions are satisfactory. Mr.. AD. Smith of Stur- geon Lake, was very. con- cerned about pollution in and around Sturgeon Lake. He was not convinced the local people individually have abi- lity to do anything. He went on to say "I have a well that is good in the winter, spring and fall but tests polluted in the summer. I don't know how to find out where the pollution is coming from." The discussion of this sub- ject indicated that the local Ir.C Children 50c. AVAILABLE NOW! 78 Yamahas All Models plus some good used machines.

As a development pressure. conversion of cottages to year long use was a concern to some of the municipal officials. Mayor Lawrence Malcolm of Scugog Town- ship said most conversion was approved. It was the person who decided in No- vember to convert to stay through the winter, that municipality was not able to control. . "No judge would enforce the seasonal zoning in the winter", said Mayor Mal- colm, "that would put fami- lies out in the cold." Mr. Max Kennedy of Duns- ford pointed out, "Who would pay- $20,000 plus for a lot to build a seasonal home. Even if that was- all the seasonal zoning permitted." It was indicated that most municipalities do not allow development in flood plain or hazard lands but a conserva- tion authority in the area could help define the flood plain through flood plain mapping. * Mr. H.C. Crowell initiated a discussion on some re- creational concerns he had over lake levels for boating, obstructions in the Scugog River, the height of bridges over the Scugog River and the future plans for the pro- vincial park reserve on Scu- .8og Island. Many. of these concerns were responded to by Mr. G. B. MacDonald, Superintendent of the Trent- Severn Waterway, who was also in the audience. He in- dicated that all channel ob- struction accidents be re- ported to his office in Peter- borough so they could invest- igate. It was of interest to note that there are three bridges, 2 municipal and one provin- cial over Scugog River. The lowest of these bridges is ten feet, seven inches and all are barriers to larger boats en- tering or leaving Lake Scu- gong. Flamingos split games _Port Perry Flamingos opened the Junior "C" regu- lar season on the right foot last Friday evening with a victory in Lindsay. Their fortunes turned however, Sunday evening, when the team took it on the chin and dropped a 6-3 decision to Stouffville Clip- pers in front of about 350 fans at the New Scugog Arena, . In Lindsay Friday night, Port Perry was forced to play catch-up hockey all game with Robert Evans finally breaking a 5-5 tie late in the third period.

But Perry Brown put the game out of reach when he stole the puck at centre ice, and beat Port Perry Charlie Durwood on. a "clean break- away to make the score 4-2. Stouffville counted two more goals in the third period before Jay Adams scored with less than a. minute remaining to make the final score 6-3. The game was delayed about 15 minutes in the third period as referee Al Junkin sorted out the pena- Ities resulting from two fights at the 14 minute mark. Colin Wackett and Stouffville's Geoff Roy both got game misconducts, and Robert Evans and Bill Meakes got majors for their parts in the altercation. Minor penalties : were assessed to players on both teams for not going to a neutral zone after the fights broke out, Penalties played a factor in the loss, especially in the first period when Stouffville scored two power play goals. In all Port Perry took 46 minutes in penalties and Stouffville 44 minutes.
