Nine- teen teams entered into this event which included fourteen of our junior members. Congratulations are extended to John Scott and Diane Burt.who were victorious over John Rickey and Georgia Brock, winning in two sets, 6-3, 7-5. In the consola- tion round Dick and Sally Martin defeated George Bright and Gale Ballard in 2 sets, 6-4, 6-3. The people who travelled the farthest just to play in this tour- nament were Tony and Beth who now reside in Guelph. The newest - addition to their family, a son - Zachary, was at the courts both days to meet everyone. John Scott organized and ran the 21% day tournament. His wife Joan supplied the delicious food at the courts. The members feel Joan should start up her own business, 'Joan's Delectable Sweets' as her baking and tour- naments parties are so sensa- tional, breathtaking and soooooo good! Many thanks to manager Julie Lee and Kentucky Fried Chicken for donating two barrels of that finger lickin' good chicken and to Sportsland for donating prizes for this tournament. Bob and Ruth Burt hosted another fun party at The Burrough. The juniors en- joyed the swimming and tennis while the adults enjoyed the food and dancing! There are still some opening in the Junior Tennis Camp which runs for three week, commencing July 9th and ends July 27th. The camp runs weekday morn- ings from 9 a.m. to twelve noon. Diane Burt is organizing this event accompanied by Alex Pilepic (back again by popular demand) and our club members Jay Neill and Jeff Murray. The cost per person for the three week is $50.00 and it's worth every pen- ny. Should you have any questions then call 985-3091. Remember, the second annual Fun Tournament is scheduled for July 14th and the Juniors Doubles Tournament is scheduled for Ju- ly 28th. Watch the paper and the court bulletin board for news up- dates on these two events. On the lighter side of tennis, a 'keener' is a description of a per- son who is absolutely obsessed with the sport of tennis & can fre- quently be seen on the court in the middle of a torrential rain storm with a mop and a squeegee say- ing "hey c'mon, it's only a little water." See you on the courts! IF YOUR AD WAS HERE Over 20,000 people could have read it this week. That's a lot of potential customers for your business.

(See story for detalls.) Gun law flawed says OFAH Portions of the federal govern- ment's proposed firearms legisla- tion could actually promote law breaking, says the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (OFAH). A 400% hike in the cost of Firearms Acquisition Certificates (FAC) is unwarranted and will have a negative effect on the con- trol and legal use of firearms across Canada, said Rick Morgan, OFAH executive vice president. Calling the proposed FAC in- crease from $10 to $50 "'a blatant tax grab,"" Morgan said the new law could create more law break- - ing than it prevents. "I am convinced that the $50 fee, by itself, will prompt many otherwise honest Canadians to break the law,"" he said. "Firearms will be illegally sold SUNROOFS! TRUCK SLIDER! CELLULAR PHONES! BOX LINERS! et UNNING BOARDS! AEE" ORT PERRY auto glass & trim i. and loaned to friends and ac- quaintances unwilling to shell out $50 - and that is wrong. "Our government should en- courage, not discourage, com- pliance with the law. Lowering the proposed fee is important and the OFAH will fight for it," Morgan added. In addition to the fee hike, pro- posals to implement a 28 day waiting period for FAC approval, and the requirement of photographs and references, may further complicate firearms con- trol, he said. The OFAH is also concerned that new limitations on clip sizes may render many previously common and lawful firearms useless. It's unknown if smaller clips are available for many firearms currently owned by law abiding citizens. But the OFAH was pleased to see a proposal for mandatory education and testing for all first- time firearms owners, action the Federation has long lobbied for, said Morgan. The new system should resemble the current man- datory Ontario Hunter Education Program, he said, which is im- plemented with the backing and co-operation of the OFAH. rE 3 a ER oY 4 Lara TE eae EP - ANT
