Page 6-June 19,1986-Fort Covington Sun-Fort Covington, N.Y. St. Regis Mohawk School Science Fair What do tadpoles, flowerpot bells, solar systems, and ar- madillos have in common? Why, they could all be found at the 12th annual Science Fair held June 12th at the St. Regis Mohawk School. Each class developed and presented a group project relating to their year long study of science. They dealt with a diverse range of topics which included; earthworms, insects and pets (Pre-K); dinosaurs, space, fossils, and insects Kindergarten); mag- netism, buoyancy, germina- tion, metamorphosis, and insects (First grade); weights and measurement, and the metric system (Second grades); and sound (Third grade). In addition, the third graders presented individual reports , and experiments on a topic of interest to them. All children were encour- aged to have an individual project as well. Rabbits, snakes, tropical fish, insects, puppies and even a baby raccoon, were great fun to observe at close range. Experiments were conduc- ted concerning gravity, plant growth, pulleys, volcanic erup- tion, and electricity (fans, switches, currents, and electromagnets). Many children identified rocks, leaves, nests, shells, wildflowers, fungi, insects, amphibians, and animals. Others made such things as potato prints, wire and clay dinosaurs, solar systems, and terariums. During the afternoon, Mr. Mitchell released five weather balloons, one for each grade level, with messages written by the children, attached. Hopefully, someone will find them and write to us. We wish to express our thanks to Felicia Jock who organized and coordinated the Science Fair, and to the judges who had the difficult task of selecting the best projects. The judges were Angus Pyke, from the St. Regis Health Services; Doug Smoke, from the Environ- mental Office; and students Alice Rourke and Rhonda White who are environmental interns.

Financing as low as HOCKEY BANQUET Salmon River's best hockev season ever — and the players, and coach responsible for it — we feted at a recent banquet held at the school. Coach Bill Plante took sev- eral minutes during the awards ceremony to detail the many accomplishments of the 1985- 86 skating Shamrocks. The club won 24 games during the campaign, a school record. Their 19-1 NAC mark was also Salmon's highest. For the first time ever, the Sham- rocks were, for a time, ranked the number one team in New York State overall, and made the national high school hockey rankings. SRCS was also the first Division II crew ever to beat all the Division I clubs in a given year, including the thrilling 4-2 win over Massena at the SRC Arena back on February 1. The Shamrock mentor cited the fact that his club was the least penalized in the league for the seventh year in a row. Coach Plante also noted that he has, \taken the most pride in the consistency of the (hockey) ^program.\ He also read several letters from op- posing coaches, innkeepers, and hockey people praising the Shamrocks for their con- duct both on and off the ice. Guest speaker Ron O'Brien — who later did his magic act to the delight of the many in attendance — took some serious moments to compli- ment the team as well. He said that, as a referee, he respected the fact that Salmon River players, \take a licking and keep on ticking. There's no retaliation aftes a clean check.\ Plante also took time to soothe what may have been a lingering malcontentment — the early end to their outstanding season via the j loss in the Section 10 title game and in the first round of the state playoffs. \We're not the first team to have a good season and get elim- inated quickly in the playoffs,\ he asserted, noting that NHL teams like Philadelphia, Qu- ebec, and the Islanders went down early, too. As for this outstanding season, Plante said, \The challenge is the chase. Every team is now 'up* to play Salmon River. I take that as a compliment. And every year we're always in the chase for the top. We're always in po- sition to win it all.\ He cited Salmon's many divisional, sectional, and state titles to back up that statement. And, he said, \In seven years, all the players have been out- standing to work with.\ In the awards part of the festivities, Plante recognized Salmon River's All-Northerns — MVP Craig Richards, Tom Barnes, Peter Radlein, Mitch Cook, Marcel Aliaond, Jesper Romell, and Andreas Birch- Iensen. The Academic All- Northerns in 1985-86 were Richards and Tracy Burl. The individual awards: Rookie of the Year — Toby Sunday; Sportsman Award -— Tom Barnes; Character Award — Jesper Romell; MVP — Craig Richards; Tony Phillips Unsung Hero — Tracy Burl; Determination Award — Mike Tremblay and Richards; Coaches Award fJPlante: \For great contri- butions to our program.\) — Barnes, Richards, Mitch Cook, and Marcel Almond; Most Improved — Tremblay; Appreciation Awards — man- ager Todd Richards and stat man Joel Emerey; Special | Thanks for International Con- tributions — Romell, Andreas Birch-Iensen, and Peter Radlein. Coach Plante closed the evening by noting the inter- national award recipients, \have been a real fine addition to our school. They have gained respect throughout the North Country.\ As has the entire program during the seven years Plante has been its head, we might add. The heaviest dog so far on record was a St. Bernard that weighed 295 pounds. \I® N.C.C.D.I.
