Careless, Rouse, Yoemans, Ellis, Tomlinson, Mogford, Purcell. UXBRIDGE HANDS PEEWEES THIRD LOSS
It was inevitable that Uxbridge would eventually get the Peewee Clippers number; they did, last week. with an 8-2 win that handed the Credit Union sponsored team their third loss this year. This leaves both teams with a win and two ties in home and home series. ATOMS LOSE MAGIC TOUCH
Port Perry ended the Sound of Music Atom Clippers winning streak with a convincing 7-1 win. Jason Underwood’s lone tally in the second period prevented the shutout. MIDGET PROFILE
Midget profile of the week is Lee Brown – one of three Browns on the team -who is a highly respected and very mature member of the Midget squad; which is why they
probably chose him as captain. The rightwinger is undoubtedly the team’s best defensive player and he shares the line with Chris Brown and Bill Hutchison who have combined to make a deadly combination with 101 points in 20 games. MINOR HOCKEY RESULTS NOVICE

In their enthusiasm to topple the front running Red Wings the flyers swept everything before them literally. However, Ratcliff got his own back.

Goalie Kerrie Tulett, caked in slabs of mud played excellent between the pipes to stave off Thornhill’s late game surge.

In a postponed hockey game with Sunderland, in the Uxbridge Arena on Tuesday night, Stouffville pulled an overtime game out of the fire, trouncing the Sunderland Squad 8-5. The game was even throughout, until the overtime period when Sunderland seemed to slow up considerably and allow Stouffville to slip three goals passed them in ten minutes. Goal getters for Stouffville were Austin, Baker and Anderson, the first two accounted for six of the teams eight goals.
This win places Stouffville in a tie for second place with Sunderland, while Goodwood and Uxbridge continue to be tied for the first position.
Beginning next Tuesday night the four teams in this senior group will commence another round of the schedule.

by “Bud” Sanderson
Playing the second home game and home games against Scarboro, in the High School hockey finals, Stouffville captured the Kennedy Cup, downing the southerners 6-3 and 11-8 on the round. This is the first time in many years that the cup has been held by the local school, Markham being the last, and most consistent holder.
The first period of the final was fast with Stouffville having the edge. Joe Austin notched two goals In the second phase Scarboro dominated making it 2-1. The last frame was outstanding. Bob Abell accounted for 3 goals and Ted Cadieux another. Scarboro made a rally in the dying moments and gathered two goals, making it 6-3. Penalties were few, two went to Stouffville and one to Scarboro. Underwood in goal was brilliant. This other game of this home and home play-off series was played in Markham.

STOUFFVILLE EDGED OUT 3-1 IN FIRST GAME OF PLAY-OFFS
There was little to choose between the two teams in Uxbridge on Tuesday night, when Sunderland secured a one-game lead over Stouffville with a 3-1 victory in the first game of the play-offs.
Paced by “Lou” Morden, who was the spearhead of most of the local attacks, Stouffville fought to the last ditch, and provided fans with a real thriller all the way. “Lou” provided the local driving force and picked off his team’s single counter on a solo effort in the first period.
Sunderland counted first at the 3.56 mark, Watson driving in an ankle-high shot, which Forster stopped, but was drawn out of position in doing so, and was unable to get his hands on the rebound which Sunderland player banged into the net. With Maynard in the “cooler” for Stouffville for tripping, Morden took the puck at his own blue line, and started up the centre ice with Baker on the wing. The Sunderland defense expecting a pass to the wing were neatly tricked out of position, to give “Lou” a clear shot which Turner failed to stop. With only 20 seconds remaining in the opening session, Haitley beat Forster for Sunderland’s second goal, shooting from close-up, and giving Forster no chance to save, as his view was blocked by his retreating defensemen.
The second period provided a real curtain-raiser, and both teams matched speed, and passing attacks which had the goalies doing everything but handsprings to keep them out.
“Jake” Baker and Kenneth Rusnell combined to score shortly after the opening of the third period, but the goal was disallowed on the grounds that the Stouffville player was in the crease. At the half-way mark, Brandon stepped into Maynard of Stouffville, which gave the locals a man advantage and was the signal for a real power drive which kept Sunderland bottled up in their own end of the rink for nearly four minutes. However this determined ganging went unrewarded, as Turner apparently had a horseshoe in his pocket and just could not be beat. With just two and a half minutes to go Campbell broke into the clear behind the local defense and banged the rubber over the prostate Forster for the final goal.
Stouffville were short the services of Laurie and Hare which was a severe handicap.
Sunderland’s clever passing play in the local defense area proved a factor in the win, although the actual scoring chances both teams shared alike.
Over $15 was realized at the benefit hockey game on Monday evening, which was held at the local arena, for Harold O’Boyle, of White Rose, who was injured at a hockey game near the beginning of the season.

FROM THE PRESIDENT UXBRIDGE INTER-COMMUNITY HOCKEY ASSOCIATION
A number of conflicting stories have been circulated throughout the community, by the press and in other ways, regarding the disputes, so called, arising out of the hockey play-off arrangements, and it would be serving the best interests of all parties concerned, if the correct version of the facts was given to the public.
At the conclusion of the schedule, the executive, in accordance with the plans made at the opening of the season, ordered the first and third teams, and the second and fourth teams in the standing, to meet in sudden death games, the winners of these games to meet in the final series, to determine the championship and the right to hold the British Consol’s Trophy. The Sunderland management objected to the sudden angle of the first round arrangement, which had been so ordered because of the uncertainty of the conditions.
A meeting of the executive, including representatives of the various clubs, was called to deal with this objection, and to endeavour to arrive at a amiable understanding. At this meeting the Uxbridge club, because a member of their players had left the town, and the Goodwood club, for reasons best known to themselves announced their withdrawal from from further competition in the play-offs. This left the executive with no alternative but to order the two remaining clubs to meet in a final play-off series, which has just been concluded.
The executive regrets that the Uxbridge and the Goodwood Clubs did not see their way clear to continue in the play-offs, as they, particularly the Goodwood Club, have been splendid assets to the league, but it is a fact that at no time did the executive request or even suggest that Goodwood should Stouffville meet or Sunderland in a first round play-off series, despite the somewhat laboured attempts by newspaper scribes and bidding rhymsters to lead the public to believe otherwise. STOUFFVILLE TO ENTER O.B.A.COMPETITION NEW ATHLETIC COMMISSION APPOINTED
Stouffville by all appearances is in for a big year in baseball. This week permission was granted the Stouffville Club by the O.B.A. officials to enter the North Toronto Intermediate A group of the T.A.B.A., and from which competition they will step into the Intermediate B play-downs at the end of the season. The Intermediate C class has been done away with by the Ontario Baseball Commission.
Numerous advantages should be realized by Stouffville in entering this Toronto group. All games played away from home will be played in the Eglinton Park in the city, and will be twilight fixtures. The local’s home games are expected to be either Monday, Wednesday or Saturday evenings. Stouffville will be given the privilege of any holiday games. A meeting of the league executive is scheduled for this week. This league last year was comprised of four teams, all representing various commercial establishments.
It was decide at the meeting on Monday to alter the usual form of the Stouffville executive, and appoint a commission of six to be known as the Stouffville Athletic Commission. This body will include Manager Tim O’Neil, and Secretary-Treasurer Harold Quibell, reelected officers, and in addition four other local men, namely: L.C. Murphy, Thomas Burkett, Hugh Anderson and Chris Armstrong. The Commission will deal with the raising of finances, securing jobs for put-of-town players, and any business which might arise pertaining to the Stouffville Baseball Club.
The Stouffville Club after going well into the final O.B.A. play-offs last year, were just able to balance their books, and it was thought that possibly enthusiasm was somewhat lacking among the fans here, owing to the team playing only exhibition games during the season up until the play-offs. Be entering a regular league this year, which will provide several games a week greater interest will be forthcoming, which should put the hitherto meagre gate receipts well over the top when play-off time rolls around.
It is the hope of management to have fifteen or twenty players for spring training,and to carry a considerable larger line-up during the scheduled games. A bit of scouting is contemplated to bring out all available district baseball talent. The services of “Tip” Anderson of Oshawa will again be sought, in order to bolster the local pitching staff.

BASEBALL SEASON TO OPEN HERE MAY 24
Several members of the newly formed Baseball Commission were in attendance Monday evening at a meeting of the North Toronto Baseball League.
Four teams will enter the running for the T.A.B.A. honours in this Intermediate A group. the teams are Ostranders, Hillcrests, Miracles and Stouffville. An advance schedule will be sent to various clubs this week for approval. Stouffville will engage in twenty-four games, twelve at home and twelve away. The local’s home games will be played on Saturday afternoons with games in Toronto on Wednesdays. The schedule is expected to commence May 17, with Stouffville’s first home game on May 24th.
The league as conducted by the Toronto Association lifts considerable burden off the shoulders of local management regarding umpires, ball, finances, etc., are handled by the League executive. T.A.B.A. umpires will be supplied for all games.
Stouffville’s lawn Bowling Club re-elected last year’s officers at the annual meeting held last Friday evening. The club decided that fees for 1939 should be the same as last year, being $5.00 per member and $3.00 for beginners. Renewed interest in the game was anticipated with the opening session in a few weeks. The president is J.B. Sanders, vice-president, C. V. Pipher, and J.S. Dougherty, secretary-treasurer. T.B. Rae and Mr. F.L. Button were elected representatives to the Provincial Lawn Bowling Association.
It is reported that a small town brawl such as might be portrayed any week in the columns of the Star Weekly by Gregory Clark and Jimmy Frise, was staged in the establishment of a Markham Smithy last week, when two of the local checker enthusiasts came to blows over an alleged false move on the part of one of the players. The accused “shark” landed a hefty right on his opponent’s face, which brought a real flare-up. Only quick action on the part of several on-lookers prevented the fist swinger from being carved up badly as the other gent drove him clean out of the hang-out brandishing every thing from a pick-axe to a wagon-tongue. It is understood that the proprietor was unhappy and into the forge went the checker board. Apparently there is no closed season for checker players.

The local bowling club will hold their postponed election of officers this Friday night. The greens are looking splendid and underwent their first rolling on Monday.
The Badminton Club enjoyed a very successful concert on Friday evening, gate receipts amounting to $46, from which sum the club should realize a nice tidy profit to carry on their activities.

SET HOURS FOR ROLLER SKATING
We have been thanked for calling attention to the danger inherent to roller skating on the Main Street. It is especially so after dark, and parents who permit their children to be on the roads then are flirting with real trouble. The motorists cannot see the forms of skaters easily and especially so when two cars are meeting. It might be a good idea to set apart a certain two hours per day when roller skating might be safest, with certain reasonable steps being taken to make it so. For instance, if skating were allowed say between four and seven o’clock, all motorists could be made aware of the fact. Even the through traffic could be advised by suitable posters at either entrance to the town, local motorists could be cautioned to drive slowly and give the kids a chance.
As matters now stand roller skaters are on the street day and night and sooner or later there may be a serious accident. How about parents calling a meeting to consider this vital question? SUNDAY OBSERVANCE UPHELD
The likelihood of any tampering with the laws governing Sunday observance are now past. It was feared for a time that might materialize in the legislature, but such a storm of protest went up that an attempt to gain legislation for a wide-open Sunday was abandoned. Within the last couple of years a similar attempt was made for big league baseball to be played on Sunday, but that was refused before it got very far, and games played for commercial gain are forbidden. Thus it will be necessary to keep a sharp lookout against infringement of the Sabbath laws. Aside from religious institutions the Sabbath is and must remain different to all other days, otherwise it would soon be swallowed up by thoughtless ones.
The T.A.B.A. baseball league of North Toronto will open their schedule next Wednesday afternoon, May 17 with Hillcrests and Ostranders hooking up for the initial game in Toronto. On Friday, May 19, Stouffville will meet the Miracles in Toronto park. Complete schedule will appear next week.

BASEBALL OPENER HERE WEDNESDAY, MAY 24
Stouffville Initial Start in Toronto Friday
Baseball for 1939 will be initially opened in Stouffville next Wednesday afternoon here in Memorial Park, when Stouffville meet Ostranders at 2:30 (s.t.) The local nine will journey to Toronto this Friday night for a starter against Pears. Incidentally in the schedule published in this issue, Pears are referred to as Miracles. The park, where all the city games will be played is situated just off Eglinton Ave. east of Yonge and east of Oriole Road.
According to Toronto sports’ writers Stouffville are not regarded as an easy mark, and are pointed out as having won several championships, bred several big league players, and at all times have been a real hustling club in Intermediate competition.
Ostranders, first city team to be seen in action on local grounds, are managed by Jack Robinson, and won the North York Championship last year. With one or two exceptions, the entire squad are back in action. George Pyzer, winner of last season’s outstanding pitcher award is again heading the Ostranders mound staff. Hanson supplies the outfit’s biggest threat at the plate. he batted .350 for Kirkland Lake last season.
Stouffville will present no new faces for Friday night’s game. “Tip” Anderson of Oshawa will likely get the mound assignment. Bruce Stover, local hopeful may also get a chance to show his wares. Bruce is a smooth, speedy actor and has displayed some real talent in High School circles.

Stouffville edged out a 8 to 7 win over Pears on Friday night to mark their first game in the North York Intermediate League
Stouffville took a two-run lead in the first innings and then came on to score six in the sixth frame. Harold Cook featured in the local rally, slamming a home run into deep centre field with one on. Bruce Stover, rookie fielder, hit a clean single over first to advance two more.
Pears scored single runs in each of the first, third and fifth innings. In the last half of the sixth, home runs by Steve Levantis and pitcher Bob Ferguson added four more to bring the Toronto team to within one run of the locals.
Batteries were, Ferguson and Munro for Pears, Anderson and Cook for Stouffville.

A meeting of the Stouffville Tennis Club is called for this Friday night at 7.15 p.m. ERRORS LOSE 7-4 DECISION FOR LOCALS
A heavy list of errors by Stouffville on Saturday afternoon sent the locals down to their second defeat of the season7-4, at the hands of the Toronto Pears, in a North York League game here.
Pears counted one in the first innings and three in the third, when the home team fielding was very loose. Scott on the Toronto mound was replaced by Ferguson in the fifth, after Stouffville had capitalized on hits by Holden and Hood. Anderson, Hood and Holden crossed the plate for three runs to bring Stouffville within striking distance of tying up the ball game. Stouffville added one more in the seventh. Pears counted singles in each of the fourth, fifth and ninth, to give them a three run edge which they managed to hold.
All three pitchers, Scott and Ferguson for Toronto an Anderson for Stouffville were hit freely, and only five strike-outs were chalked up between them.
This Wednesday, Stouffville meet Hillcrests in Toronto and Saturday the league-leading Ostranders will invade the the local diamond for the second time this season.
Last Wednesday’s game in Toronto was rained out.
One of our local barbers Robert Snowball, accompanied by Bill Sanders, clerk in Goudie’s store, journeyed to Sutton last Wednesday afternoon where they had excelled luck fishing, and just so their friends would not think their tales were mere “fish stories” the catch was photographed. The shaving artist landed a lake trout weighing over eight pounds, a real beauty, while several other large fish were caught that would make a prize meal for even a family as large as the old lady who lived in a shoe.

STOUFFVILLE LOSES CLOSE GAME 3-2
Ostranders claimed a second close victory over Stouffville in the North Toronto Baseball race, defeating locals 3-2 here on Saturday afternoon.
Both teams finished the first innings on equal terms, each scoring one run. Ostranders counted again in the fourth to take the lead 2-1, only to have Stouffville close the gap in the sixth.
The home-towners missed a royal chance in the sixth when Holden was caught off first. After this set-back the boys went to work on Withy, the Toronto pitcher, clipping out three hits in succession.
Ross Wideman at third made a costly error in the ninth, missing a throw from Lou Lehman, who was endeavouring to cut out a runner coming from second. A second runner, trying to make home on a short hit to Wideman was caught at the plate.
Cook, Lehman and Stover went down in the last half of the final innings in succession.
“Tip” Anderson played a fine game for the losers and was given splendid support by his mates.
Probably the longest hit in the game was made by Hoskin of Toronto, the last Toronto man up in the ninth. The fly was taken by Murray Holden at centre, who travelled back nearly to the fence to make the catch.
Next Saturday Hillcrests will play here.
Stouffville dropped their Wednesday ball game in Toronto, 4-3 to the Hillcrests. The game was very close, and was called on account of darkness in the ninth innings, before Stouffville were able to start a last-minute barrage to tie it up.

FANCY SKATERS COMING JULY 1ST
In addition to the elabourate program of afternoon sports and evening entertainment in the Arena at Stouffville on Saturday, July 1st, the management announce that an added evening attraction will be seen when a couple of fancy roller skaters, of world fame will do some thrilling stunts and whirlwind skating.
This will be in addition to the appearance of Art McCall reputed the world’s strongest man in spectacular feats, Marion Douglas noted Carillon musician, and Ted Rust, ventriloquist who is just as funny as Charlie McCarthy to whom he claims a relationship.
The afternoon program is attracting about ten softball teams from neighbouring towns and Toronto. A league fixture in hardball will be played between Stouffville and Hillcrests, and an effort is being pressed to match Claremont and Vellore in football.
The merchants are asked to decorate their premises and every home may fittingly fly a flag on Dominion Day. Many visitors are sure to be here and the Lions Club under whose auspices this program has been worked out, wants the town to put their best foot forward. TROUNCE HILLCRESTS HERE BY 6-2
Local Batters Stand Well Up in Standing
Backed up by the home-run hitting of Lou Lehman, “Tip” Anderson treated the home-towners to a fine bit of pitching when Stouffville entertained Hillcrests here on Saturday afternoon, in a North York fixture, and trounced the Toronto squad 6-2.
Mike Johnson on the mound for the Hillcrests got into serious trouble in the seventh and was forced to retire in favour of Jimmy Head. Head presented the Toronto team with their only counters when his blazing triple scored Harris and Hickson in the ninth.
Bruce Stover got on by a walk and scored on Anderson’s poke through short in the second innings. Lou Lehman added one in the fifth on a long fly over right field, going for a home run. This was one of four hits collected by Lou on the afternoon, a homer, a triple and two singles. Stouffville completed their count in the seventh with a walk, an error, two singles and a double to score runs by Holden, Lehman, Wideman and Stover.
Only hard luck edged Stouffville out in three previous games, and by their showing on Saturday look to be in winning stride again.
Four of Stouffville’s batters are among the the first twelve at the top of this season’s batting averages to date. Harold Cook, stands third in the league batting .409; Lou Lehman is seventh with .375; Murray Holden is ninth with .345, and “Dinty” Hodgins is twelfth with .313. Johnny Walker of Pears is leading the league at present batting .500.
This Saturday Stouffville meet the second-place Pears in Memorial Park.
The jinx appeared to still be on Stouffville’s baseball nine, when last Wednesday afternoon they absorbed their third defeat at the hands of Toronto Ostranders in the city park. Again the Toronto squad were forced into extra innings until the end of the eleventh did they emerge with a six to five win.

NEXT MATCH TO BE ON YONGE STREET
North York Plowing Association meeting at the home of the President Russel Gray last week, accepted an invitation from Mr. Walter Wood to hold the 1939 match on his farm south of Aurora on Yonge Street. The site is ideal and has been used for this purpose before.
Collectors were appointed to canvas Toronto and the local district in good time to acknowledge all gifts in the prize list to be issued later in the summer. The date of the match is as other years, October 18. STOUFFVILLE ONLY ONE GAME BEHIND LEADERS
Baseball Club Are Financially Embarrassed Because of Poor Support
The poor support given the baseball team this season is causing no end of worry to the boys trying to provide this kind of sport. Despite the fact that Stouffville is playing in a fast league, and are showing up well with their good winning ability, the townspeople fail to turn out to see the games played in the park every Saturday afternoon beginning at 2:30.
It was feared a short time ago that the locals would have to drop out of the running unless something was done to boost the finances, which seems unfortunate when the lads are providing such clean, wholesome sport.
If you are not a baseball fan try it out any Saturday in July.
Local Sluggers Hold Top Positions in Batting Standing
On Saturday afternoon Stouffville won another victory by beating Pears 5 to 7. The game was scoreless until Pears went to bat in the fourth and completely blew up, allowing the home team five runs with everybody cracking the ball all over the lot, and the visitors fumbling it. After that steady ball was in order, with the visitors squeezing in counters in three innings and two in the eighth. Both teams did some fine batting, and the crowd enjoyed great excitement with so much action on the field. “Tip” Anderson was on the mound for Stouffville and Bobby Ferguson for Toronto. The brand of ball deserves better support, and those who miss these Saturday afternoon games are the losers.

GAIN INITIAL WIN OVER OSTRANDERS
Stouffville finally broke their hard-luck streak with the Ostranders Club on Wednesday afternoon with a 8-7 victory over the Toronto outfit, in a North Toronto League game.
“Dinty” Hodgins did a neat bit of twirling to give the locals their win over the league leaders. Stouffville gained their initial tally in the first stanza with a single by Bill Clarke scoring Murray Holden. Lehman singled in the third to score Button, Wideman hit a double to score Harold Cook and Pennock’s single drove in Lou Lehman. Murray Holden counted on a sacrifice by Reg Button in the fourth. A long drive into left field gave Donald Hodgins a home run to score Pennock and Cameron.
Ostranders gained two counters in the fourth frame with Allen Shill making a home run on a smashing drive through right field, and Joe Mount going all the way on a high, looping fly over left field. Gill Baldwin started the last inning rally with a home run to score Geo. Pyzer. Joe Mount came through with a triple, with the bases loaded and Rowland, Hocking and Shill crossed the plate. Hank Withey started on the mound for Ostranders, but was forced to retire in the third in favour of Bill Cross.
Stouffville baseball teamed dropped an exhibition game to Oshawa juniors on Monday night by a score of 7-6.
Gordon Lemon and his trio won the first prize in the mixed twilight tournament at Agincourt last week put on by the Lawn Bowling Club there. Gordon and Fred Carruthers were presented with blankets, while Mrs. Grubins and Miss Luella Holden were presented with silver plates for crackers and cheese. Agincourt, Oshawa and Aurora rinks won other prizes.

GREAT CROWDS FOR HOLIDAY ATTRACTION
Ideal weather combined with a program full of entertainment from the very drop of the hat on Dominion Day, commencing at noon and lasting until 11 o’clock at night brought its reward to the Lions Club who spent $225 on the enterprise to secure the program of fun and amusement for the occasion. Despite important counter attractions the crowd exceeded the fondest hopes of the sponsors, so that all expenses were paid and a nice surplus left for use of the Club in bringing help and cheer to needy children during the year.
Three baseball diamonds were occupied at one time with softball in progress. Uxbridge girls defeated Stouffville, while in the men’s contest Ostranders and Musselman’s Lake divided the first prize rather than play the final contest between them. This was due to lack of time.
The hardball game proved a wash-up between Stouffville and Pears, although a league fixture, it failed to provide the brand of ball these teams play. After the first five innings it was a perfect merry-go-round because both teams lacked pitching material, the available supply having cracked up.
The football contest between Claremont and Vellore, as expected attracted a big interest and proved a thrilling game ending in a 2-1 for Valore. The game ended at 7:30, when the great crowd made for the entertainment in the arena, where standing room only was almost at a premium. Some 800 attended the concert.
Every artist demanded great applause and when the varied program ended at 11 o’clock, it was too soon for most of the crowd. Art McCall who was doing stunts as Canad’s strongest man, certainly lived up to the advertising. He could bend a six inch spike into a figure eight with comparative ease, and a large farmer audience know what it takes to do this. Then he lifted a kitchen table, a chair and a boy sitting on the top, with his teeth. Yes, and he drove a six inch spike through a plank, then broke it off with his teeth to the amazement and applause of the large audience.
Marion Douglas, carillon musician was thoroughly enjoyed as was Miss Cheevera renowned acrobatic and tap dancer with unusual ability. Miss Cheevera is only 19 years of age.
Of course some of us had heard Ted Rust, ventriloquist and expected to hear a barrel of fun with his wooden-headed companion in ventriloquist numbers many complimentary remarks were heard as the large crowd surged form the building about the quality of the entertainment with its numerous and varied numbers.
Ted Huntley soloist was greatly appreciated while Mrs Percy of Toronto was the accompanist for the entire program, all brought by Fred McLeod, who acted as announcer for the evening. Stewart Beare’s sound effect was installed and made it possible for everyone to hear with ease.
The Junior Brass Band appeared in their new uniform and played unstintingly during the afternoon, drawing generous acclaim from the big crowd.
From start to finish it was the largest crowd in town for a long time, and the manner in which the program was put on with never a dull moment should assure the Stouffville Lions of a still bigger crowd next year should they decide to repeat with a similar celebration.
Congratulations are due Manager Hodgins, head of the local den of lions or whatever it is called.
Earl Cook, who returned recently to his home ball club, Cincinnati, has been turned over to Buffalo, and gave Toronto Maple Leafs, the club which sponsored his professional career, a 2-1 setback on Friday night, allowing the Torontonians only two scattered hits.

Stouffville made it three straight on Saturday afternoon here as they came out on the long end of a 16-13 decision over Toronto Pears.
The Stouffvillites took a six run lead in the second frame, watched Pears, tie it up in the sixth and then collected five more in their own half to go out in front again.
Tip Anderson who handled the local twirling duties for the first five and one half innings, connected with two on for a double which he stretched to a homer on an overthrow to third.
Cameron, on of the early season weak sisters on the team came up and landed his second of three hits for the afternoon. Lou Lehman and Bill Clark each took and easy base by bunting down the first base line while Cook, Wideman and Stover kept the merry-go-round going till three more runs crossed the plate.
Pears took to slugging Anderson quite freely in the fifth and coupled with two infield errors pulled up even.
With only one out and the bases full, Lou Morden, a new local recruit put everything he had behind the first pitched ball and sent the longest hit here this year far down to the east of the arena, and chased three runs in ahead of him to put Stouffville out in front 14-9.
Toronto tossed in their third pitcher of the afternoon, Art West, in an effort to stem the local scoring, both Ferguson and Scott being driven from the mound with three innings apiece.
Anderson on the local mound also weakened in the seventh, and was relieved by Pennock who finally retired the side after four runs had been scored.

Ragged fielding by Stouffville lost a North York League baseball game 13-11 with Hillcrests here on Saturday afternoon. A belated rally on the ninth innings fell two runs short. Bruce Stover banged out three hits in four trips to the plate for the best local effort. Pitcher Mike Johnston for Toronto and Tip Anderson were both very poorly supported. Anderson struck out five and allowed eight hits.
The annual Lawn Bowling tournament on Stouffville green attracted 20 rinks who played under fine weather conditions. J.E. Telford’s rink from Eato Memorial Club captures the Stouffville Old Boys cup donated by Dr. Gilbert Richardson and F.L. Button K.C. by winning first prize. Second win went to R.T. Williamson, Rusholme Club, and third to E. Cartwright from the Glebe Manir greens. Rinks were entered from Oshawa, Toronto, Uxbridge, Richmond Hill, Agincourt, Aurora, Claremont, Stouffville. The ladies club served the evening lunch.

HANDSOME PRIZE OFFERED BY BALL CLUB
The winner of the prize offered by the Stouffville Baseball Cub for their double-header baseball game with Toronto Hillcrests scheduled here on Saturday will walk off with with a handsome three-piece chrome trimmed studio set, the very latest in comfortable furniture. You can obtain a ticket at L.E. O’Neil’s or watch for a seller on Main Street.
Earl Cook, local sun playing baseball with Buffalo Bisons chalked up another win last Wednesday night, when he held Baltimore at three hits for no runs in 6 innings of play.
Stouffville dropped a 7-1 decision to Toronto Hillcrests on Wednesday afternoon in the N.T.B. League game. The locals were held to only three hits, Tip Anderson, Stouffville moundsman getting two of them, and scoring a single run.
Stouffville will play a double-header baseball game here on Saturday, August 12, with Toronto Hillcrests. The North Toronto league schedule is nearing completion and only three more dates remain for the local club. Officials have turned nearly gray in an effort to obtain better support for the Stouffville team. Despite frequent losses, the boys have dished up some splendid baseball, and it is regrettable that the town fans cannot see fit to turn out to the games in larger numbers. It must be remembered that the local boys are entered in a league playing class A ball, and in such competition, they have been doing very well. We understand from Secretary Snider of the O.B.A. That Stouffville, who at the completion of their Toronto schedule will enter the Intermediate B play-downs and will likely be lined up against either, Ivy or Nestleton for the first round.

UXBRIDGE FARMER WINS HANDSOMELY
Tom Machesney living on the third concession south of Goodwood had the thrilling experience last Saturday of winning a $70 studio set for 25 cents. He held the lucky admission ticket to the baseball game in Stouffville, where the club was giving a fine prize to the fortunate one which proved to be a farmer who says he has nothing in his home to equal the set-up.
Tom lives on the former Rodent farm and works hard to make ends meet for himself and his little family. Viewing with his wife his prize in the window of O’Neil’s furniture store on Saturday evening, Mrs. Machesney said she thought such finery would look out of place in their home, and the couple weighed the question of selling the handsome three pieces, while friend advised them to take the enjoyment of it for themselves.
The lucky ticket was sold by Price Pugh. As a result of the sale of tickets in this manner two hundred cheered at the double-header which provided snappy ball all the time. STOUFFVILLE PLAY GOOD BALL, BUT LOSE TWIN BILL 3-0 AND 8-3
Toronto Hillcrests moved out in front in the North Toronto Baseball league on Saturday afternoon here, taking both ends of a double-header with Stouffville 3-0 and 8-3.
The first tilt was a nip and tuck pitcher’s battle all the way. Bruce Stover on the local mound held the class A rivals to six scattered blows, or less than a hit an innings. Lefty Wright was more than equally good, for Toronto, giving Stouffville only three solid pokes in the whole game. Toronto’s big break came in the second when a double by Gaul, a single by Harris and an error by Hood sent two runs in.
Another single and an error in the third combined to add another marker to the visitors lead. In the sixth a smart double-play, by Wideman at third to Lehman at second, nipped a possible two-run splurge, when none were out.
In both games the fielding of Murray Holden, local centre fielder, was a treat to watch. He covered more ground in the afternoon than all the base-runners combined and made two one-hand catches that were labelled home runs.
R H E
Hillcrests 3 6 1
Stouffville 0 3 2
It looked like a different story in the second game of the twin bill, when Holden, Button and Cook piled up a trio of hits in succession in the first innings, to bring in two runs.
In the third, a double by Baker, singles by Roberts, Crain and Rosenthal along with a local error, enabled Hillcrests to count with their three runs. The forth and fifth were scoreless. Stouffville getting the one hit in the two innings. Clark clipping out a single.
Lehman and Pennock collected two lusty singles in the first of the sixth and a passed ball into the screen allowed the tying run to score.
Anderson who has apparently settled down after an erratic start, weakened on the Stouffville mound in the sixth and combined with two error to allow five hits and give Toronto a substantial five-run lead. Acheson, Hickson, Baker, Head and Harris were the marksmen.
Two hits in the seventh by Button and Clark were fruitless, Head successfully retiring the side and chalking up his eighth strike-out in the game.

Murray is Stouffville’s only representative on the picked squad, and certainly showed his complete three stars in Saturday’s double-header here, fielding in sensational style. The local light is quite a consistent hitter too, and has stood among the league’s top twelve hitters all season

GET BEHIND THEM
We are all pretty proud of the manner in which the Stouffville baseball club trimmed up that Ivy team. Not content with two lickings the Simcoe champions protested the last trouncing and the authorities demanded that Stouffville play again, resulting in another victory for the local lads here. Now, after showing their prowess in this manner isn’t it up to the people of Stouffville to turn out this Thursday afternoon and cheer for the home lads in their first meeting with the champions from the city of Galt. The boys will have to play a return game and they need your donations more than your good wishes at this time. Let’s all be on hand this afternoon at three. WIN PROTEST GAME MEET GALT THURSDAY
Despite a belated protest by the Ivy Ball Club, Stouffville defeated the northern club for the second time on Thursday, a replay of the Ivy home-game and a win which sends Stouffville into the second round of the Intermediate O.B.A. “B” play-downs.
Ivy chalked up six errors in the first three innings to toss five runs into the laps of the visitors. Ivy had the tying run on base but Bailey hit to the pitcher to end the promising rally.
Stouffville drew their first run in the opening frame when Button took first on L. Davis’ error, went to second on a wild pitch, and came in on C. Banting’s error at second.
In the fourth, Lehman took first on a fielding error, stole second, took third and home on Cook’s single to right. Clarke’s homer scored Cook and Hodgins.
Stouffville made their winning run in the seventh. Lehman walked, stole second and came home on Cook’s single.
Ivy made their first counter in the third inning when L. Davis walked and G. Davis singled. J. Cauthers went down on a fielder’s choice and W. Davis walked to force the run.
In the fifth, W. Davis, was scored by J. Scott’s double, who, in turn, was scored by Bailey’s double.
This Thursday Stouffville meet Galt in the second round with the game here at 3 p.m. In Memorial Park. The date of the return engagement has not yet been set and may possibly not be until the middle of next week.

Markham and Stouffville Go Best Two-Out-Of-Three
Series to decide League Champion and Right to
Enter O.H.A. Play-Downs
Last Thursday night just the evening previous to that on which they were to meet Stouffville in the second round of the loop, Uxbridge Imperials withdrew from the League
The Stouffville management left with an advertised game on their hands and no apparent opposition, appealed to Markham to swing their first game to the earlier date. Markham however were unable to muster their squad on such short notice, and instead sent along a pick-up team of youngsters who were little more than practice material for the local contingent.
The fans who turned out expecting to see some real hockey were rather a disgusted lot under the circumstances, but the home club had been placed in a spot, and felt some sort of game should be staged when it had been advertised.
It is understood that Uxbridge through some hitch in their management have decided to seek a berth in the O.H.A. themselves and play exhibition games in the interval.
It is expected that Stouffville and Markham will make their next games the deciding best two-out-of-three seise for the league title, and the right, and the right to enter the Intermediate O.H.A. play-downs, which are due to start this week. The first game will be played in the local arena on Monday night, February 19. Fans who attended last Friday’s game will be admitted free to this opener. BRING HOME THE BACON FROM FENELON FALLS
Stouffville Intermediate Hockey Club marched into Fenelon Falls last Wednesday night and handed the northern team a decisive 11-5 drubbing in answer to a challenge thrown out by the Falls club to take on all comers, winner to take the gate receipts. The trip netted $30, the full gate receipts exclusive of the rink’s share.
The home team took to the ice with practically their regular squad, and never turned in a better effort. Nicholson in the Stouffville net turned in a star performance, while the remainder of the home team handled themselves like professionals, out-skating and out-maneuvering their older opponents in every period.
The Falls took an early lead with two quick goals after the opening bell but, from then on it was Stouffville all the way. Herb Simpson, Jake Baker and Forbes made it 5-2 when the first period had elapsed. Play was concentrated chiefly in the northern territory during the remainder of the game, but on two occasions Fenelon broke loose and coasted in for easy shots.
Herb Simpson had a field day scoring four goals on the night. Jake Baker and Joe Austin each added two, Anderson, Forbes and Morden accounting for the other three.
The win is more pleasing in that Fenelon Falls team had strengthened by adding senior players from Toronto, Burlington, Sydney, N.S. and the Haliburton district, although their best player, Brown was one of last year’s Minden juveniles.
Mr. and Mrs. “Red” Harding of Stouffville royally entertained the local team and some twenty Stouffville fans to dinner before the game. CURLING

SUDDEN-DEATH GAME TO SETTLE PLAY-OFFS
The quandary cloud which has been shadowing the heads of the three Intermediate hockey teams, Uxbridge, Markham and Stouffville, over the outcome of the County League schedule is finally to be decided on Monday night.
Uxbridge and Stouffville will play a sudden-death game to settle the issue and decide a winner to enter the O.H.A. play-downs.
Uxbridge who only last week unceremoniously withdrew from the league with the intention of entering the Ontario play-downs immediately, found that the O.H.A. unwilling to accept their entry when they have not completed their schedule as previously fixed. Uxbridge facing elimination from further competition appealed again to the O.H. authorities and were rewarded with the sudden-death arrangement.
Markham who we understand have been reluctant to continue in the O.H.A. regardless of the outcome were eliminated in three “weak” games winning only its home game. Last week’s scoring bee was counted, giving the locals the decision in the play-off series.
Stouffville management feel that Uxbridge have been treated more than generously in being allowed to a chance to make a come-back Monday, and are determined to put forth full reserves to eliminate the northerners which is expected to produce a torrid contest for the do-or die game. HIGH SCHOOL HOCKEY
Last Wednesday, the Stouffville High School hockey team won their third straight game when they defeated Agincourt 3-0. Cadieux notched two goals and Rusnell one, getting assists from Abell and Boadway. Four penalties in all, were handed out, two to each team.
Markham play at Stouffville this Friday to complete this present series.
Play-offs begin next week, home and home games with goals to count.

13 TO 6 VICTORY GIVE LOCALS CHAMPIONSHIP
Nip and Tuck Battle Till Uxbridge Penalties Open
Way for Stouffville Scoring Nee in Last Period
The biggest crowd of cash customers to jam the local arena so far this season saw Stouffville battle to a decisive 13-6 win over Uxbridge Imperials on Monday night to clinch the County League crown.
Both teams were sporting a number of new faces brought in especially for the all-important struggle, and the fans were certainly treated to their money’s worth for the full sixty minutes.
Stouffville jumped into a one goal lead in the first period, Baker and Austin combining only to have Bridgewater and Gould slap two behind Nicholson, local goal custodian. “Chubby” Spencely and Bradley went to the box for two Uxbridge penalties, while Lou Morden also got the finger for boarding. With only seconds Baker grabbed another nice pass from Austin and streaked in from the side to sizzle one through Adam’s legs, and end the period two-all.
The game must have been a nightmare for Uxbridge defenseman Bradley, who was made the target for the fans heckling during the entire game. Bradley turned in a good effort for the Imperials on defence and was the spearhead of many a Redshirt rush, but his high-sticking tactics kept him in the cooler for a total of thirteen minutes during the game.
Neither squad could gain more than one goal advantage during the first two periods. Uxbridge opened the scoring in the first two minutes of the mid-session, but with Morden serving a minor for an accidental trip, Rennie local right winger took advantage of an Uxbridge ganging attack to break away, and coast in on Adams making it 3-3. Two more were added to each side of the score sheet before the period ended, Baker and Delsell being the local goal-getters, and Pearsell and Long counting two for Uxbridge. Austin drilled a high one from the blue line which caught goalie Adams in the face, and the period was called while his injuries were being repaired.
Nicholson looked a trifle weak on two shots in this period, although his defence at the same time was doing little to assist him. However he came through in fine style during the last period when plenty of rubber was fired his way.
When the penalty parade started in the final twenty minutes, Stewart, Bradley and Spencely went off almost in order. the northerners third penalty paved the way for Simpson to put the locals out in front, and begin the victory march which was only threatened again during the evening by one lone Uxbridge tally while Stouffville tucked away eight. Simpson, Rennie, Brillinger, and Murphy being the scorers.
Uxbridge was short-handed almost the entire final period and Stouffville new line of Rennie, Murphy and Delsell were a sweet looking combination trio as they sifted through the fading Imperials time and time again.
Visiting fans took to ribbing big “Baldy” Stewart, local defenseman while he was serving a penalty and fists flew so freely that Constable Gayman had to be called in to quell the disturbance. Bradley’s heckling of referee Max Reesor got him five minutes extra and nearly caused a second riot.
According to word received by the management of the Stouffville hockey Club on Tuesday, the local boys must meet Sutton in their first round of the Intermediate B play-downs
The first game of the series, which will be a best two-out -of -three affair, will be played in Sutton this Thursday night with the return match in Stouffville on Monday night, March4.
Sutton are reported to possess quite a snappy aggregation and defeated Oakwood two straight games to win their league championship. Stouffville however will not be soft as the line-up will be the same as used Monday night against Uxbridge.

This will be a best out of five series with the second game in Grimsby on Monday night.
The two Stouffville contributions to the Markham team have made a fine showing during the season and it is rumored that Bruce, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Harper, O’Brian Ave. has received an offer from Peterboro to fill a spot in the line-up of a Junior “A’ team which the city expects to have in the field next year.

NO BASEBALL TEAM FOR STOUFFVILLE THIS YEAR
By all indications Stouffville will not be putting a baseball team into the O.B.A. field this year. Manager L.E. O’Neill does not feel disposed to handle the team again and as yet no one has come forward to fill his place or take on the job of organizing.
A lack of enthusiasm seems prevalent among those who have formed the squad from year to year and unless there is more desire shown to reorganize then it is apparent at present baseball seems destined to die a natural death, for this season at least.
The North Toronto League to which Stouffville has been a part of late years has filled the local vacancy with another team from West Toronto and opened their schedule in Pears Park on Monday night.
It is many years since this town has not been identified by a baseball team of one kind or another in Ontario to local competition, and many view with regret the failure to reorganize again this year.

DOMINION DAY SMILES ON EFFORT OF THE LIONS
After 30 days of continuous cloudy weather, the sun shone brightly all day Monday to the liking of holiday makers, and especially the Lions’ Club of Stouffville who have gone to considerable expense to provide a holiday program of sports at Memorial Park, plus a big evening concert that is yearly becoming an outstanding event. Despite the fat that farmers were behind in hay making, folks were worrying about the war, and numerous other excuses, there was a crowd of over 600 people at the park for the opening baseball events, while many more were present at six o’clock for the football games, and then700 people passed through the doors into the arena at 8 o’clock for the final program of the day.
In men’s softball Unionville won first, playing their final game against Musselman’s Lake. Stouffville was a contender in this, but failed to be a winner. In the girl’s softball Stouffville defeated Unionville in a popular game, and won the prize without without further competition, indicating a shortage of girls’ teams. Mrs. Ormsby Hornsby, the former Blanche Slack, was on the mound for the local girls, who mustered a good team.
Claremont and Toronto Ulsters played football at six o’clock ending in a tie and big excitement. In fact people milled around as if there was a prize fight on, and were sorry to learn the tie was not to be broken. These teams promised to meet again shortly. Football is still very popular, and drew hundreds of farmers to see the game who had worked in the hay fields all day.
The evening concert was hardly up to the standard of other years, due to a variety of circumstances. The popular Reva Sheevers could not come and she was the star artist last year. Reva is absent on an important assignment that could not be broken. Then another member of the cast was called up to the army, while a third artist only a few nights ago got so drenched in the rain in an outside program that she fell ill, and so the McLeod were at wits end to secure fill-ins. However, the public must have enjoyed the performance as scarcely a person left the Arena during the program of two hours or more.
The Lions’Club hope to net $100. with which to carry on their child welfare work and are grateful for the splendid support given them by the townspeople and outsiders alike. Folks had a day of enjoyment for which in these days of strain, they are the better, while at the same time, they have done a service for democracy.

AT INTERNATIONAL PLOWING MATCH FRED TIMBERS WINS FREE TRIP TO AMERICA MATCH IN IOWA
Alex. Black of Guelph and Fred Timbers of Stouffville carried off the two coveted prizes at the International Plowing match which gives them a free trip to a similar event to be held shortly in the state of Iowa. he winner get a free all expense trip, including entertainment and a place on the sun, as it were, at the state plowing match.
Fred Timbers, champion of many matches, went to St. Thomas to attend the big International event with no thought of entering the competition, but the big firms for who he had plowed in various matches insisted at he participate notwithstanding the fact he had not any real practice. Considering this fact, the show he made in a field of contestants numbering over 50 is outstanding in a very real way.
This was perhaps the most interesting competition, being a tractor class larger than anything previously recorded.
The St. Thomas match last week was the largest ever held by the International Association, there being 904 entries, surpassing anything else by 200.
Stouffville farmers, as usual came in for a big share of the prizes. Harry Pugh, carried off one first and one third in tractor class, while Lloyd Turner captured a ninth prize in tractor. Joe Tran won a forth prize in one of these classes. Ivan McLaughlin, Ballantrae, stepped out to win a first prize and a fourth in what is known as the green tractor class, those who have never won a prize in the provincial tractor classes before.
The Salada Tea Co. competition had a strange ending. First prize went to Harold Pickett and Second to John Lister, both plowmen being neighbouring farmers from Hornsby.
Win. Timbers was one of the provincial government judges during the competition.
York County was well represented at the International Match. These contestants each plowed on two to three different days and were about equally divided between walking plows and tractors. The boys did well and brought home at least their share of prizes. Those plowing from Stouffville were Alex Logan, Lloyd Turner, and Fred Timbers
While York County was represented in the Inter-County Walking Plow competition by one of the strongest teams they have ever had, the competition has now become so keen that our hopefuls with only twelve points below the winner, out of a possible 300 were in ninth place with 22 teams competing. Ontario County, which last year stood second, won the contest. With 13 counties in the Inter-County Tractor class, York stood 2nd, being beaten by Haldimand. The walking plow team consisted of Herb Jarvis, Bert Irwin and Norman Tapscott, all of Milliken and the tractor team was Murray Timbers of Locust Hill and Norman Tapscott.
Donald Lehman, is the second son of Mr. and Mrs. Ab. Lehman of Stouffville to join the Canadian Army. Don or “Beanie” as he is usually called is with the 2nd Field Ambulance now stationed in Camp Borden. OPENING SOCCER GAME WITH AGINCOURT
Stouffville Continuous School soccer squad took to the field for their initial game in the newly formed soccer league on Friday splitting a 1-1decision with Agincourt
There was little to choose between the teams in the afternoon play, each taking advantage of the wind in turn, the locals having the edge in the first quarter and Agincourt in the second. Not until the second half was either team awarded with a break, when Cadieux booted the pigskin over the line for Stouffville’s counter. The local boys guarded their slim lead well until well into the final quarter when the gold and white managed to slip the equalizer between Stouffville posts.

Somewhere in England
Hello A.V.
This is the 10th of March, and I thought I would drop you a line, as I know you like to hear from soldiers away from Stouffville. I’m in a camp in England, a lovely spot. I arrived two weeks ago, and I sure like England and the fighting spirit of her people.
We were on the boat for twenty-three days.
I suppose the old town is just the same as ever. I hope Art Weldon is O.K. again and am looking forward to another fishing trip with him. There goes the air-raid warning again, and we have to duck into shelter in case they get too close.
I hope that my wife and family are alright as I have not yet had a letter from them.
Well I guess I will close as I expect to see a picture show right away. So long for now, see you soon.
Your friend,
Spr. W.O. Lehman

LOCAL HOCKEY PLAYER WAS SERIOUSLY HURT
“Ike” Harper, stalwart defenseman of the Markham Junior hockey champions and a Stouffville boy (son of Mr. and Mrs. William Harper) has been resting in the hospital for the past week, due to a severe gash over one eye. Bruce received the clip from a Bolton player’s stick during a brawl which occurred in the second game of their recent series. He was attended by the Maple Leaf Garden physician, and it required five stitches to close the wound. When he returned to Toronto for the third game, it was found that infection had set in and he was hastily removed to the hospital. He was able to return home Tuesday.

Bob Bangay was the top scorer for the Markhamites, counting three of his teams’s ten goals. Junkin, a newcomer and Baker were the other scorers.

MARKHAM PUTS PARIS TO ROUT
Markham Junior O.H.A. team are making records for themselves early in the season. At Maple Leaf Gardens on Monday they drubbed the Paris Juniors to the limit fora 9-0 victory Bob Bangay and Ron Rower for Markham scored three goals each and led most of the attack. Just before the game started Allan Boadway received a broken finger and was out of the game. He hopes to be in the fray again and he has been doing good work. LIEUT. BAKER REPORTS FROM THE NAVY
Sub. Lieut. Alan Baker, son of M.P.P., has written a splendid letter to F.L. Button, K.C., chairman of the Stouffville Red Cross in which he expresses some sentiments and thoughts.
Dear Mr. Button
I wish to thank you and the members of the Stouffville Red Cross Society for your kindness in sending me a parcel of good things, I received several days ago. I am very grateful for your thoughtfulness. When one is away from home it is such a treat to be remembered by the folks back home.
The Red Cross and other social services are indispensable to the happiness and well-being of the troops. We have plenty evidence of that aboard the Annapolis, especially in the line of warm winter clothing which has become so necessary now that the cold weather is approaching. I think tat those who having been giving to these services will be glad to know that their contributions are being well spent and that those of us who have benefitted from their kindness do appreciate a good deal.
we are all in this war and one phase of our effort is just as essential as the other, whether it be active service, in the production of supplies or in adding to the comfort to those in the front lines. When we all push together the load on each individual is just that much lighter and the road to victory that much shorter.
I wish to thank you once again and to wish you all the compliments of the season.
Pte Charles Davis, son of Mr. and Mrs. Dawson Davis of Stouffville is in training with the Canadian Army.
Markham bowlers inform us they really have something that makes local history. As late as December 5, the kitty chasers in the southern village were out on the greens, and some of them were in their shirtsleeves. There was Fred Reesor, Archie Millen, Dr. Brown and Ed. Wurm, all going at it as though it was mid-July. it certainly established a record for late bowling, for here in Stouffville the club folded up a month ago.
Hundreds of people who attended the Markham fair will recall that a quilt offered at “three tickets for 25 cents” in the main building. Well, it was won by Mrs Wm Simpson of the Brown Betty tea Rooms, and she was apprised of her good fortune when a gentleman from Markham village brought it over to the lucky winner. The quilt was a lovely piece of work and was made by Ethel Davidson for the Markham Red Cross.

AFTER THREE MONTHS SON’S FATE STILL UNKNOWN
Ottawa, Washington and Iceland silent about fate of Billy Castle
With the fate of Billy Castle.Stouffville youth who was mess boy aboard the Bold Adventure, torpedoed of the coast of Iceland on the fateful day of October 16 last, just three months ago? Many ships were sunk in that convoy bound from the U.S.A/, and few were the survivors, yet the fate of Billy Castle has never been officially answered by the War Office at Ottawa or Washington or by the private boat owners engaged in transporting shipments in the convoy.
Billy Castle was last in town visiting his parents during August last year. At the time he was in the Seaman’s Union, and had a $2000. insurance policy with them. Latest information is that he left the Union to sign up for private shipping, the insurance ceased, and the Union has no record of him.
Frantic in her effort to learn the fate of her son, Mrs. Castle telephoned the War Department at Washington, and received a promise that information would be forthcoming. That is over two months ago, yet no word has reached his anxious parents.
Ottawa too was appealed to, but no information could be had there. Hon. W. P. Mulock wrote to the Castles two or three weeks after the sinking , and expressed his fears that Billy was missing. Mrs. Castle recently learned that one of the few survivors of the Bold Adventure was a radio operator who was at his home in Toronto. She contacted him, went to his home and talked to this youth of twenty-three years who was a companion of her boy on the fateful trip. The operator feared the worst had happened, but even he could not be sure about Billy. Some survivors were picked up by passing boats and taken to distant ports. Could Bill be one of these?
Prior to sign on the Bold venture< Billy an eighteen year old born in the Castle home at the corner of Main street and the Tenth street north, has served a short time on the New York News, a large freighter. This boat was sunk while Billy was on leave., thus the two boats on which he worked have been sent to the bottom.
Alive he should be heard from. he kept in constant contact with his home by sending post cards at close intervals until the sinking of his boat. GRANITE TWIRLERS START
Ice is now available in the local curling rink for those who have been itching to get their hands on a set of stones for some weeks. Curling this year has come three weeks later than last year, when the season opened a week before Christmas.
This Wednesday a rink composed of Harry Sanders, Ira Aldred, Walter Brillinger and Wm. Armstrong was at Oshawa participating in the big bonspeil there. and these boys were the first foursome to take to the ice here on Monday night.

Markham Intermediates made it three straight over Newmarket Training Camp on Tuesday night, doubling the score 10-5 on the soldiers, in an O.H.A. fixture in the Newmarket arena. The Markhamites got away to an early lead and were never seriously threatened at any time.

Pte. Allen Harper, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ross Harper, was a member of the Garrison, which made such a heroic stand at Hong Kong. Since the Japanese have yet to release the list of prisoners taken, no definite word has been received by his parents. A letter received by Mr. Harper a week ago from one of the officers who was successfully with a couple of dozen others in making his escape by motorboat, but could give the parents no word on their son.
Pte. Bruce Lintner and Pte. Fred Castle, born and raised as chums in the east end of town. The two went overseas together and have been on coastal defence in the British Isles of late.
Flying Officer John Button, is a son of Mr. and Mrs. E.A. Button of Stouffville. John is stationed in Winnipeg, where he is on the medical staff of the R.C.A.F.
Dear Fellows
I am dropping you a line letting you know i have received a parcel of smokes that you sent me, and I was sure glad to get them. I think Stouffville veterans Comfort Fund are doing a great job. Every time I read the Tribune, I see where you have sent boxes and parcels to the boys on active service overseas. A parcel from home really cheers you up. Guess I will have to close for now, thanking you again for the cigarettes
Yours truly,
Chuck (Charles Cadieux) FEBRUARY 5 1942 LOCAL SCHOOL LOSES THIRD HOCKEY TILT.
Markham proved to be both good starters and strong finishers in their second meeting with Stouffville on Tuesday night. Jack Watson put Markham well in the lead in the first period notching three counters. Fred Williams drew the only penalty for tripping.
In the mid-frame the home town made a strong bid to even the count, and Arnold Schell and Murray Vague made it 3-2. However local hopes faded in the final period when Jack Watson and Harry Green scored two more to make it 5-2.

MARKHAM OUSTS OMEMEE FROM HOCKEY PLAY OFFS
Holding a five goal advantage over their opponents Markham Intermediates romped through to a 5-1 win over Omemee at Unionville on Tuesday night, taking the round 13-4.
Markham won the first tilt in the O.H.A. ‘B’ playdown against Omemee last Friday night in the northern arena by the count of 8-3. Goalie Jack Harper rose to new heights in the opening stanza of that game, but the speed of Omemee had fizzled out by the last period, and led by sharpshooting Ralph Parkinson, Markham rapped home four goals to put the game on ice.
Despite the fact that the northern light showed considerable speed and scoring punch in the first period, they never headed Markham’s green shirts, who rested easily on their big lead. Omemee went down fighting, and outshot Markham in the first frame, but were only successful in netting one tally, that by Foster at the seventeen minute mark. Calhoun, who came to Markham from the Junior ranks, had opened the scoring midway through the period for Markham.
Five minutes had been played in the mid-session when the Markhamites took the lead on a goal by Bob Lawrie from Austin Baker. Ike Harper, Stouffville flash, made it 3-1 near the end of the period, as he sailed in with Parkinson and Scott, and caught the lower right hand corner, after goalie Morrison had blocked his first effort.
Markham added two in the last period, Parkinson and Meharg, being the marksmen. Scott for Markham and Foster for Omemee drew the only two penalties of the game in the final twenty minutes.
No word has been received yet as to the next advance along the ply-off path. It might be Owen Sound, Belleville, Waterloo or Kingston.
Markham – Goal, J. Harper; defence, F. Scott and G. Scott; centre, E. Lawrie; wings, B. Lawrie and Baker; subs, Parkinson, Meharg, B. Harper and H. Lawrie.

Due to tire and gas shortage this should be a good season for home amusements, and all members and prospective members are urged to attend this meeting.
A.H. Williams, President T.B. Rae, Secretary
Former Hardball Notables Home on Leave
Corp. Fred Thompson former Stouffvilleite, now with the R.C.A.F. at Dafoe, Man., is home on leave. Fred will be remembered by baseball fans as a proceeder of no mean ability. He played at various times with Stouffville, Newmarket and Aurora. His last appearance on the diamond was with Cliff Case’s Blue Ribbons. Probably one of the greatest games he ever pitched was a 3-2 play-off game at Stouffville which he lost when a ball got away in the sun from Percy Devins. The apposing hurler that day was no less than the now professional Earl Cook. Stouffville took the championship of the league with that win. Another old York-Simcoe leaguer was Buck Haynes, who filled the spot behind the plate for Aurora when they invaded the local diamond on occasion.

OFFICERS RETURNED FOR BOWLING CLUB
At the annual spring meeting of the Stouffville Bowling Club held on Friday night, A.H. Williams was elected president of the club for the the third successive year. Besides Mr. Williams the remaining portion of the 1941 slate of officers was returned to office. These are as follows: Vice Pre., R.E. Ratcliff; Secretary Treasurer, T.B. Rae; Rep. to District Committee, T.B. Rae, and Blake Sanders; Rep. to Province Assoc.., F.L. Button; Grounds Committee, J.H. Ratcliff, Ira Aldred, and M.E. Watts, F. Marshall; Membership Committee, F.L. Button, J.H. Ratcliff.
It was revealed in the financial report that the indebtedness of the club, covering the club house, and the pumping system had been reduced to approximately $200 during the year.
The membership fee will remain the same, being, $4.00 for town members and $3.00 for outsiders.
The rationing of gasoline and other restrictions was looked on as possibly curtailing sporting activities which would take folks from town, and in that way, it was hoped that a larger membership would result in the bowling club this year.
Gordon Baker, R.C.A.F., son of Mrs. Harvey baker, just south of Stouffville received his wings a week ago, at the Price Edward Island Training Centre.

BELIEVED PRISONERS AT HONG KONG
An unofficial list of Hong Kong survivors published last week carried the name Cap’t Reed, who is a nephew do station master J.F. Reid at Goodwood who was feared lost. Also appeared the name of D. Harper, who is believed to be A. Harper, son of Mr. and Mrs. Harper of Whitchurch, who was among those missing since the big battle. The fact is stated that there was no other Harper in the regiment to which he was attached, therefor it is probably safe to assume that Allan Harper is the name intended.
Ralph Parkinson who preformed for the Markham Intermediate hockey team this past season will join the ranks au the athletes entering the services. Ralph will don navy blue. He is, we understand, a softball player of no mean ability, and will play for Th. navy softball team at Divisive this summer.

Dear Bert
it makes me very happy to be one of the many over here who receive your grand boxes. They are worth their weight in sterling to us. This is the second I’ve received and they sure hit the spot. Words cannot express my gratitude to you at home who are constantly remembering us in this way and also knotting socks etc.
Every Canadian, and there are many at this station, receive knotted things and warm pajamas from the Canadian Red Cross in London through the padre here. I get the Tribune every week and it was never enjoyed so much as it is now. I was very sorry to read of the deaths of two of my fellow pilots from home. It leaves us with greater ambition to carry on and bring this conflict to a victorious end, and give our governments a chance to make peace. I pray God may give them the courage, judgement and intelligence to do it.
By the time you receive this I’ll be on a Bomber Squadron flying Britain’s biggest bombers over Germany, and giving that arch villain Hitler a packet from Stouffville. It won’t be a packet of candy either.
I saw my brother about a month ago and he is now in an all Canadian night-fighter squadron. We had a fine visit and he is very pleased with his job as I am with mine.
Good-bye for the present. Yours is very fruitful work and does more good than you imagine. Keep it up.
Yours gratefully,
Jim Thomas

May Be Forced To Return Home
Earl Cook Stouffville baseball product who has had his ups and downs since joining the ranks on the money players, may have to return home the end of this month, if the U.S. government or the southern baseball association don’t find some way to transport players from city to city except by bus. A ban has been placed on this mode of travel which has proved to be the most convenient. Earl is playing this year for Beaumont, a class B team of the Texas circuit, but has been finding it hard of late to finish a game. He has as manager Steve O’Neill with whom he played at Toronto. The team is at present leading the league.

MARKHAM RINK TAKES LOCAL BOWLING TROPHY
A Markham rink, skipped by Max Reesor captured the Stouffville Old Boy’s Trophy at the bowling tournament on the greens here Monday evening. Another Markham quintet, skipped by Ed. Wurm carried off second prize, while rinks skipped by T. Doyle of Newmarket and W. Sanders of Stouffville, were the third and fourth prize winners. Twelve rinks competed in the competition.
On Friday evening this week the Stouffville Ladies’ Club are sponsoring a mixed doubles tournament at 7 o’clock. EARL COOK PITCHING HIS WAY BACK IN AMERICAN LEAGUE
Earl Cook, Stouffville’s gift to big league baseball, is according to latest reports pitching himself back to the Detroit Tigers and another shot at the American League. He is winning games consistently for the Beaumont Club of the Texas League, his most recent effort being a 3-1 decision on three hits.
Cookie has mastered any pre-game nervousness he made have had and has improved steadily since going to the Southern States. After trying out several years ago with Cincinnati, Earl was purchased outright by the Buffalo Bisons. the Bisons’ had a working relationship with Detroit and after one season, the Tigers purchased Cook’s contract. From the motor city he made his way to Beaumont, and now is on his way back to the top.
Sports writer Bunny Morgason of Toronto and a native of Goodwood tells this one regarding the “pre-game bugbear” which Cook has managed to overcome.
When Ike Boone managed the Toronto baseball club he had quite a time getting Earl Cook to relax before a pitching assignment.
Various methods were tried but without success. Finally Boone hit upon the silent treatment. It happened during a Sunday twin-bill in Montreal. the Leafs won the first game. The players were quite happy about it in the dressing room between games. Cook was parked on top of a trunk, laughing and kidding with the others. Finally when it was time to get out onto the field the players strolled out and Boone in passing the trunk where Cook was parked said quietly “Earl, you’re pitching this one” Cookie almost fell off the trunk in his hurry to get out to warm-up. He won the game s hi didn’t have any extra time to fuss and fret before the umpire called “play-ball.

GAME OF CROQUET REVIVED LABOUR DAY
A scene never enacted before at Memorial Park was to be seen there on Labour day when between 35 and 40 croquet players assembled for a grand tournament. All Th.e croquet sets that could be unearthed in Th. neighborhood were gathered together and put into play by eager contestants. The lawns were set up where once baseball was played and while the ground was a bit rough, the obstacles were equal for all. The O’Brian Avenue group who sponsored this tournament in support of the Red Cross are to be congratulated for introducing so novel an idea and in addition to raising $25.00 for the Red Cross they brought back a fine old English game that could be popular again.
There were a good many spectators who enjoyed spending an hour or two in the park for the weather was fine and warm. The group acknowledge a donation of $4.00 from the lawn bowlers who were on the greens nearby, to help reach such a handsome total. Prize winners were: 1st, Alice Forsyth, Stouffville, and Miss Reddick, Whitevale, second Dr. Reddick, Whitevale, Wm Ratcliff, Stouffville.

MORE COMFORT FUND PARCELS CROSS SAFELY
Dear Bert
Your present of sweets arrived today and to repay you and the kind people, who make it possible for the soldier’s Comfort Fund to give us the gifts I will try to say something of what we do and see over here.
It is common to see a queue a block long which will take a half hour to move up to buy a 1/4 lb.. of boiled candy or 1/2 lb.. of chocolate covered biscuits or two chocolate bars. Since I last wrote you will have read of the 1,000 plane raid on Germany where it will do the most good. Believe me, accounts I have heard make the Chicago fire a mere bonfire. Coventry has been repaid in full plus one hundred percent interest
The forming of an all Canadian squadron is being pursued and so we are having non-Canadians replaced with Canadian men. May I say that the Canadian Y.M.C.A. organizes sports, provides the required gear to play the games, also we get books and clothing which we do not get issued. All this is free and there is no swindle.
A few days ago I was given an account of a bombing raid which the pilot did a day or so ago on the Ruhr. It was reported in the papers the next day. He said, “ I did not need to do any navigation because it was a clear moonlight night and I could see everything so we just map read our way to the target. It was a large factory. I dropped bombs and they went straight into the roof of the main building. Then up from it came a huge sheet of flames and we could hear explosions. We were at 4,000 feet, but everything was thrown around and the plane did everything but stand on its nose.”
The pilot recovered and brought the plane home and that was his story.
I wish to thank all those who help to make life a little sweeter and happier for us over here waiting for Jerry to try something on England
Yours
Alf. Thomas

Further information has been received by the parents of Leland Fairles.. Latest information from Ottawa reveals the fact that he was injured in the face and suffering from shell shock.
Hockey Outlook Not Bright in Smaller Centres.
Gasoline rationing plus enlistments has all but finished O.H.A. hockey in any but the larger centres. Stouffville has not attempted to enter the Hockey field for the last couple of years, and certainly will not pick the forthcoming season to do so. Markham and Aurora are hard hit by enlistments, but according to Newmarket authorities could field teams, if it were not for the gas situation. Sutton has also been well drained by the army. Gibney, Burkholder, Smith and others having gone into the armed forces.

THIRTY-FIVE DEER FOR LOCAL HUNT CLUB
A total of 35 deer, two bears, a wolf and two foxes was the bag chalked up by the local deer hunters this year.
The Stouffville Hunt Club comprised of eleven brought out nine deer, E.A. Button bagging a bear and a fox and William Birkett getting a second fox.
The twelve men party forming the Markham club and with whom several businessmen travelled north, carried out ten deer. A. Bartholomew tumbled a 150 lb.. bear and Art Russell came home $25.00 richer for bagging a wolf.
L.E. O’Neill and Walter Holden each shot a deer in the four-man hunt club that also included Harry Holden and Bill Armstrong. The quartette spread out from Ardbeg into a district infested with lakes and rivers. One night during their stay a terrific storm blew over and the next morning the boys said the bush was full of deer tracks. The hunters got their game on the shores of Snake Skin Lake.
The Stouffville and Sutton club of twelve members, had a deer each, two of them big bucks tipping the scales to 225 pounds. Ralph Flint was again dishing up “he-man” meals for this outfit whose members have hunted the deer country each season for over a score of years.
There will be no S.P.A. hockey season this year at Maple Leaf gardens. Teams usually got their chance to size up their players in competition and all players received needed conditioning. Lack of teams and traveling difficulties are given fir the reason of suspending the series.
Two would-be hunters J. Buxton and D. Osbourne, Toronto, came before Magistrate Keith in County Court on Monday, and paid $10 each and their rifles were confiscated when it was charged they were hunting in Markham Township, a game preserve, during closed season.
Congratulations are offered to George Timbers who won first prize in the beginners class at the Junior Farmers Home Plowing competition. George received his prize
last Friday night, and we are all proud.
The Stouffville hunt club last season took as a member of their party, Rev. E.C. Hallman, minister of Laurel Methodist Church in Delaware, didn’t have the parson this time to intercede for their success. However, their former associate sent the club a letter on the eve of leaving for the hunting grounds around Ardbeg, and revealed that the deer he got on this same hunt, was probably the first one ver to be hung up in his home town. Mr. Hallman further stated that he gave a venison supper to his official board. They came 110 strong the largest attended board meeting on his church record. Not one was absent. After the meal, what was left provided a taste for those who were not part of the gathering and it is fairly estimated that 200 tasted deer for the first time, wrote the minister. MAY ENTER O.H.A. AGAIN THIS SEASON
Negotiations are underway with the O.H.A. by Markham hockey interests as to the advisability of entering a team, either Intermediate or Juvenile in the Ontario series this coming season.
Biggest problem being faced by hockey officials is that of transportation, due to an order prohibiting travel outside of a 30 mile radius. The matter was discussed at a meeting held in Markham during the past weekend and is now under review by Mr. Hewitt of the O.H.A. Entries for this tear’s schedules are expected to be placed by this Wednesday.
When interviewed by The Tribune Messrs. Grant Nighswander and Stan Pringle, two of the guiding light s in the local hockey world stated that it was hoped that possibly a league could be arranged including such centres as Markham, Stouffville and Aurora which would not involve extensive traveling. The cutting of the player limit to eleven men will also be a help, in that a minimum of cars would be needed to transport the players.
Pte. Price Pugh, 32nd Company, Canadian Corps Petrol Company, took part in the evacuation of canadian troops at Dieppe. He is one of three sons of Mr. and Mrs. Alf Pugh of Stouffville, all on active service overseas. Pte. Price Pugh has been overseas for two years. His brothers are Serge. Morley Pugh, with a reconstruction battalion, and Pte. Hilliard Pugh, with the R.C.O.C.

JUNIOR HOCKEY OPENS TUESDAY
Local Boys get Berth on Markham Village Squad
The Junior B hockey schedule including the Markham and Unionville O.H.A. teams open next Tuesday night, with a clash between the above mentioned clubs in the Unionville Arena.
Two “home-brews,” Arnold Schell and Fred Williams will form part of Markham’s first-string team. Williams will fill a position on defense, and Schell will be up forward, left wing on the first line. Both boys have been stand-outs on the Stouffville High School team for several seasons. Carl Sellers, last year’s sub goalie will be in the nets for the Green and White.
Local talent seems apparently to be nil on the Unionville line-up most of the boys being city products.

Markham has entered a team in the O.H.A. Junior ‘B’ running this year, The Tribune was informed this week by A.W. Lawton, hockey executive. of that town.

At present some twenty forwards, lads from Markham, Scarboro and Toronto are turning out, but the cryng need is for defence material. Sellers who filled a Markham net in the past year is negotiating with hamilton at the present, and will not give Markham officials a definite decision to play. Carl, a Toronto boy, has been doing the goal-tending in the early tryouts. Markham is providing Snowball, the Forgie bothers, Cox and Brandon. A member of the Forgie pair and Brandon tried out earlier with Marlboro company.

Mr. and Mrs G.R. Thomas, received a most welcome Christmas gift on Dec., 24rh, in the form of a letter from their son Flying Officer James Thomas. It had been written on Oct., 2nd. Flying Officer Thomas was shot down over France on the night of Feb. 13th, while piloting a heavy bomber on a raiding mission, and has been in Switzerland for some time where he is believed to be interned. This is the first letter his parents have received, as he explains it is only now they have permitted by the authorities to write. he told of sending a number of cables but had not received any replies until the latest ones sent in September. He spoke of enjoying his stay and hoping to do considerable skiing this winter.
Gordon Lehman of Stouffville, one of the first boys to cross the ocean, has been spending some time in a civilian hospital in Scotland. Gordon says in part, “I came to Glasgow on a Saturday at 4 p.m., and at 5 p.m. the Matron sent me a package of British Consuls, 5 razor blades and some chiclets, chocolate bars and writing paper. The stuff ca,e from the Canadian Red Cross. The next day the officer of the British red Cross came to see if there was anything I needed as they had an order from the Canadian Branch to look after me. I am the only Canadian in the hospital.” FIVE TEAM HOCKEY LEAGUE OPEN AT MARKHAM
At a meeting held in Markham last weekend the schedule was drawn up for a five team Junior ‘B‘ hockey league, including Markham, Whitby, Richmond Hill, Newmarket and Navy.
There was considerable discussion regarding the entrance of Navy into the league, as some representatives felt their opportunities to draw a packed line-up was too great, but the Navy delegate satisfied the meeting that this was not the case and their entry was accepted.
Ernie Lawrie and Bob Bangay, two former stars of Markham Junior teams, now in the armed forces, were on hand and took part in the weekend work-out on the local ice. The opening game will be on Friday, Jan. 7th 1944. DEPARTMENT GIVES GAME DELEGATION A SYMPATHETIC HEARING
Eight municipalities were represented by 14 delegates appearing before the Department of Game and Fishing at Queen’s Park to formally protest the Department’s recent action in issuing hunting licenses at 25c. each that were good for hunting in townships described as game preserves, and for which the respective townships issue a license for $2.
The Minister gave the delegates a sympathetic hearing, which some members contrued to mean that the Department would desist from issuing any more such bargain priced licenses. The delegate stressed the point that if a person could obtain a license for 25c, at the parliament buildings, the work of local game wardens would be ruined.
The answer to the delegates will not be known for some little time, and just what stand the Department will take on the protest is one of speculation.

O.H.A. Junior ‘B’ Schedule Commences This Friday
Markham will open the Junior O.H.A. schedule this Friday night on their home ice when they face Whitby. This is the only hockey league functioning in this district this year and for this reason is likely to create considerable interest in this town. The likely starting line-up for Markham will be goal, Sellers; defense, Page and Tipoff; forward, Watson, Bowcott, and Dunlop; subs, Whittle, Page, Little, Gibson, Mishnik, Routcliffe, Forgie, Brandon; sub goalie, Carl.

Messrs. Wes. Boadway, Orval Drewery, Geo. Gunn and Fred Timbers were in Toronto the foist of the week, representing Stouffville as an entry from the local curling club in the Colts Bonspeil, played at the Royal Canadians. The local team defeated Agincourt in the first round but fell before High Park in the second game.
LAC Jack Sanders, son of Mr. and Mrs. Blake Sanders, send an airmail to Miss Mae Urquhart under date dec. 22, which is most interesting. It gives an inkling on things and conditions in that far away country. Jack writes that he found a note in the toe of a new sock he was putting on, and lo it was a note placed there by Miss Urquhart who knit the socks. It was her 141st pair.
The brief letter explains that they wear rubber boots all the time so socks come in very handy to supplement their issue.
He goes on to say … We all find Italy quite old fashioned, but it is a change from Africa, and all through the fall we enjoyed many kinds oaf fruit, especially grapes. The only person from home that I have seen is Mike Helse in Sicily. Canadians are fighting well on the front and deserve all the credit they get.
I get the Tribune though usually quite old but it keeps me posted on all that is going on at home. it must keep you very busy knitting, but the socks do give comfort and are an aid to health.

The first round of the Junior ‘B’ O.H.A. play-downs is scheduled to get under way next week. the date of the first game in Markham has been set for Friday, Feb. 18th, with the first game in Whitby on Monday or Tuesday.
Although Whitby finished the schedule with the same number of wins as Richmond Hill, the County Town had a better goal average and subsequently finished in third place with Richmond Hill, fourth.
Navy remains on the second rung of the ladder and will meet Richmond Hill. Newmarket who managed to come through with only one win in the season, ended in the cellar spot and were eliminated as play-off contenders.
The play-offs will be best two-out-of-three affair, while the finals will be the same with the third game, if necessary in Maple Leaf Gardens.

Local Boys Star in South Ontario Hockey Loop
Herb. Simpson, “Ike” Harper and “Chib” Spencely three boys who might have been the basis for a local hockey team, are making a name for themselves in the South Ontario Hockey circuit where they are putting the real punch in the Brougham Bear Cats. In the last week’s encounter with the Ottawa City Pure Ice Team, Brougham came out on the short end of a 5-4 score but only the work of Nash on the Oshawa nets saved the day for the icemen. Commenting on the local boys with Brougham, the Osaka Times had this ti say, “for Brougham, Simpson was undoubtedly the best man, and is just about the best centre in the league despite his 40 odd years. In Harper and Spencely they have two of the biggest and smartest defence men to show at the local arena and let fans get a treat out of the body-checks they hand out the forwards.” These two teams will meet in the play-offs commencing February 14th.

Sporting a one goal lead which they gained in the first game of the O.H.A. Junior ‘B’ play-downs with Markham, Whitby Juniors dropped a five-to-three decisions on Friday night to end their seasons.
Whitby added to their goal load early in the games and strained Markham to the limit to even the count. The game was featured by some wonderful goal-getting by both Carl of Markham and Klimuk for the losers.
With less than five minutes remaining in the final innings Markham tallied their first counter, to put them out in front on the round. Whitby bottled the Green and White in their own end for the remainder of the period but were unable to beat Carl in the net.
Moffat who counted two, Fred Page, Routcliffe, Forgie and Wittle were the goal-getters for Markham while Samanski, Lowe and Hefting were the standouts for the visitors.

Markham Wingman was top man in league scoring
With the first round of the O.H.A. Junior ‘B’ play-offs completed in the local league we may a look at O.H.A. records to see the top sharpshooters in the loop.
Two boys, Harold Gibson of Markham and Wally Samanski of Whitby tied with 18 points for the leadership. While Gibson, are wingman of the Green and White gathered in an 18 point total, and by of 11 goals and 7 assists. Whitby’s sniper also had the same total, and by the way of goals led the league clicking 13 tomes on the apposing net minders.
A close second was Bill Armstrong of the Navy who played at least two games less than either Gibson or Samanski and finished a scant point behind the leaders. Armstrong tallied 12 goals and got five assists in his short playing season and if he had been in every game he would have no doubt walked off with a scoring honours.
Harden, Whitby wingman was in the fourth spot with 16 goals and assists. Back of him comes Clare Walsh ex-Marlboro forward who also failed to play in every game.
Jack Routcliffe of Markham tied with Walsh for this spot. Bob Bowcott, Markham forward, heads the assist department with ten to his credit.
Boris Tipoff, husky Markham defenseman was the leading scorer from the ranks of the big backstops along with Hefting of Whitby.

Navy Juniors Group Champions
Navy Juniors defeated Markham in the second game of their best of three final series in the Markham Arena on Friday night by the score of 4-3, taking the group championship by virtue of their two straight wins.
Navy will now enter the Junior ‘A’ play-downs while Markham will continue in the Junior ‘B’ play-downs.
Although Markham held a slight edge in the first two two periods, Navy came through with a fast one from the stick of White with less than two minutes to go in the third period which put the game in the bag.
Although outplayed by the Greenshirts in the opening session, Navy counted two rather easy ones, holding et Markham boys to a single counter to take a lead 2-1.
Tempers flared in the mid-session with play see-sawing back and forth at high speed, but Walsh and Sellers rose to the occasion in the rival nets and held all sharpshooters off the twenty minutes. Sutherland, Dillon and Baker were banished for minor penalties.
At the three minute in the final period, Markham in the final, Mishinuk clicked for Th. team, to tie the count at 2-all. The two minute later, Whittle from Forgie, made it 3-2 in favour of Markham.

MARKHAM MEETS KINGSTON NEXT
Markham Juniors will meet Kingston in the next round of the Juniors ‘B’ play-downs, first game in Kingston this Friday night, return game in Markham on Monday, March 13th. STOUFFVILLE HIGH SCHOOL WINS IN OVERTIME
In a hard fought, overtime game in Stouffville Arena on Tuesday night, Stouffville High School defeated Markham school aggregation by a score of 4-3. The first period was scoreless but early in the second frame, Russel Forfar chalked up the first count for the home club, a few minutes later Benny Jones made to 2-0 on a close-in shot. Markham replied with a counter late in the second period, taking the lead with two fast ones in the last period. With only seconds to play Ken Schell slammed home the tying marker. In the overtime Schell again tailed to win the game. Stouffville will play Sutton at Sutton this Friday night.
Line-up: goal Ratlin; def. Ball, Steckley; forward, R. Forfar, Ken Schell, B. Forfar, Jones, Lehman, Davis. ADVANCE IN FINALS
Sporting a one-goal lead following the first game of their best two of three series. Markham Junior ‘B‘ entry eliminated Victory Aircraft by defeating them in the second game 10-5 in Ravina rink, taking the round 18-12
The Malton boys tied up the round early in the first period, and the first period ended 2-2. However in the mid-session Markham tallied three times on goals by Michanuk, Gibson and Bowcott, without a reply from their opponents.
In the final period Markham capitalized on the frenzied efforts of the Aircraft kids to get back in the running, scoring five while their opponents were ganging. It was a wide-open game, but slowed somewhat by no less than 22 minor penalties handed out by officials.
Routcliffe, Gibson, Mechanic and Page were the best for Markham while Chain, Casburn, Currie and King carried the play for Aircraft.
Protest to No Avail
Richmond Hill Junior ‘B’ hockey club lodge a formal protest with O.H.A. over being eliminated by Navy and asked a chance against Markham. Their plea was to no avail. The hockey “big-wigs ruled that the Hill boys had made their decision about Navy earlier in the season and were too late now. It seemed too bad that the teams had not acted jointly in the matter before the season began, and the arrangements might have been different.
There has been a lot of talk at Richmond Hill about the possibility of installing artificial ice in the arena there. The rink is owned by the municipality, and advocates of artificial ice say it would cost about $15,000. to install, with an annual cost of electricity of $450. Big crowds are visioned for hockey and other sports if permanent ice is available. Of the municipalities which supplied their town with skating rinks are Uxbridge, Cannington, and Beaverton in the immediate district. Stouffville on the other hand has been spared this expense because private enterprise has operated the rink here.
All the towns mentioned have given their municipalities a public hall, yet there are some folk who wouldn’t even support a hall project as badly as it is needed in Stouffville, if only to act as a an auditorium for the High School which is so badly off for such a place. BROUGHAM OUSTED IN TITLE MATCH
Whitby banded Bees Friday night won the championship of the South Ontario Intermediate Hockey League when they ousted Brougham by a score of 6-5 in an overtime. It was easily the fastest game of the season and witnessed by a record cord.

COMPETING IN BIG TOURNAMENT
Three rinks of the local curlers skipped by Messrs. Harry Brillinger, Wm. Armstrong and M.E.Watts are in Toronto this week competing in the Royal Canadians Bonspeil. The Brillinger and Watts rinks were ousted Monday after stiff competition with Sask. and Ontario rinks, while the Armstrong aggregation won both their games and continue today. MARKHAM JUNIOR ARE ELIMINATED
taking a 6-4 decision over Markham Juniors in their second game of their home and home series on Monday night, Kingston Vics. swept the series 17-10.
Goals by Moore and Fowler for Kingston late in the third period gave the boys from the limestone city the victory and advanced them into the O.H.A. Junior ‘B’ semi-finals.
Markham led into the first half of the second period and although Kingston a little later forged ahead the home boys came right back and tied the score 4-4 at 11.05 in the final round.
Fowler turned the hat trick for Kingston, getting three goals while Gibson accounted for two for Markham.
Kingston now meets Barrie Colts.
An exhibition game is likely to be played between Markham and Richmond Hill to at least partially settle the argument as whether the Hill had the “stuff” to have rightfully continued in the play-offs.
Stouffville High School hockey team dropped a 6-2 decision to Sutton school squad in the Lake Simcoe Arena on Friday night in the third exhibition game between these two schools. A number of the local co-eds went along anticipating a broom-ball game, but instead were entertained to a social evening at the Sutton school.

MADE THE SUPREME SACRIFICE
The sad news was received from Ottawa last week stating that Flying Officer Bill Tranmer was presumed dead. Bill guided RAF Lancasters over the target and participated in bombing Berlin, Hanover, Hagen, Munich, Frankfort, and other key targets. He was reported missing last January and his parents Mr. and Mrs. O. Tranmer, Bloomington, had nu further word until last week. Student of Stouffville high school, F.O. Tranmer was completing his course at Victoria College when he enlisted. He was an exceptionally bright boy and sorrow reigns throughout the district because of this fateful news.
The Drew government has increased the cost of race track gambling. The tax on this kind of sport is jumped from 5% to 10%. The move is a good one. the old saying that nobody wins on horses, but the government, will be more true than ever this year. BIRKETT CURLS IN MILWAUKEE FOR TORONTO
Milwaukee may be famous for its beer, but we now learn it is a famous curling centre in mid-winter. last week when attending a bonspeil in Toronto, our insurance broker Thos. Birkett was one of the granite throwers and when the Toronto rink was slated to move off for Milwaukee for a series and found themselves a man short, the sturdy insurance prince was invited to go along. Accepting the invitation, he set about getting his picture taken, procuring a birth certificate, three letters from friends vouching for his good citizenship, a promise to return forthwith after the ice powwow, attended a few other details, that would be necessary to get him smoothly over the border enroute to Milwaukee, We hear that the Canadians made a good showing, down in Wisconsin state and Stouffville is proud to have been represented on the curling line-up.

WE LIVE LIKE KINGS, WRITES LOCAL LAD FROM MIDDLE EAST
Writing to his mother from his station in India, Ted Cadieux relates how he and his navigator were fairly surrounded by acclaiming natives so glad to greet them that police had to direct the traffic. While places are not revealed in the letter it is apparent that Ted who is a flier in the R.A.F. is probably in Egypt. Here is the content of the letter: I’ve just come back from 3-day trip, and I had a wonderful. time. When I arrived there were 12 letters waiting for me, and a box from you. My friends certainly enjoyed the gum and chocolates. I had a letter from Chuck Pipher and he seems quite happy over his forthcoming marriage. I am in very good health, and living a fairly good life. gals you finally received my box sent from Cairo.
The weather is much the same here as in Canada at present, but we have more rain. I am expecting to move shortly to another station. I bought post cards of the city I was in. The city was marvelous, and the people were even kissing us, they were happy to see us.
My navigator and myself were walking down one of the main streets and an elderly woman called to us, so we stopped and talked to her in French and inside of two minutes there were so many people around that a policeman had to direct the automobile traffic. When we were leaving we shook hands with the lady when 200 hands shot out immediately for us to shake.
They were throwing perfume at my WAG when he entered a big department store. We live like kings all the time we were there in a luxury French hotel. People were buying us drinks all day long. I believe that most of the people had never seen a Canadian before.
I’ve met some very important people the past month, ambassadors, scientist, and others. We’ll “never get over the manner in which the people treated us.”
Word was received at his home here this week that Flt. Lieut. Jim Thomas has arrived in England from Switzerland and will be shortly be coming to Canada.
When his plane came down he was reported missing and considerable anxiety was felt here, but finally the joyful news come through that he was safe in Switzerland after escaping from enemy territory. NEARBY TOWNS ROUNDING UP THEIR HOCKEY PLAYERS
Towns surrounding Stouffville are rounding up players for the coming hockey season, we learned this week. Markham started a couple of months back to round out a line-up, and we understand they will be the farm club for one of the Toronto Junior ‘A’ clubs with Hy Bell back at the helm again. The team made money last winter, and although there are few homebrews available, the fans will pay at the wicket as long as the team is doing well.
Whitby has nearby all of last year’s team ready to go again, although Harden is gone and Samanski, another of their stars will likely be with Oshawa Generate.
Newmarket will also be back with many of last year’s players, and Richmond Hill whose bush-league sent a winner into the O.H.A. last season is expected to be back bigger and better than ever.

HIGH SCHOOL CHALKS UP TWO SOCCER WINS
Stouffville High School soccer squad opened this fall season with two wins last week against Claremont. The first game on Thursday was played on Claremont grounds, Stouffville emerging the visitor by a score of 3-2.
On Friday afternoon, the Claremont school returned to memorial Park and battled through another sixty minutes only to go down 6-1 against the battling Wine and White.
The local line-up: goal, L. Raxton; defense, S. Schmidt, S. Ball; forwards, R. Forfar, D. Smith, E. Lehman; alternates, K. Steckley, K. Schell, H. Steckley; subs, R. Weatherhill, L. Schell.
An endeavour is being made to line up a league comprised of school teams from Stouffville, Claremont, Markham and Agincourt. It is expected that Stouffville will meet Markham in an exhibition contest this Wednesday after noon. THIRTY-FOUR ENTRIES NORTH YORK PLOWING MATCH
Yesterday was an ideal day for Th. plowing match, and accounted in large measure for the good attendance at the North York competition held on Fred Shelke farm near Gormley. Thirty-four entries showed a good advantage. There were thirteen plowing in the four tractor classes which was extra good. Eight coveted the prize in second class sod with horses, and in all classes nice work was being turned up. The recent rains helped loosen the land to make it work well.
Mt. Pisgah Church and the Women’s Institute served meals for the occasion. MARKHAM BEGINS HOCKEY TRAINING
Markham are again preparing to take a position with the O.H.A. Junior hockey clubs, and began rounding out a team at Ravina rink in Toronto last weekend.
The local loop this season is only in the tentative stage, but it is that Markham, Richmond Hill, Whitby and either Newmarket or Milton will form a league.
Markham had four of last year’s squadron out for the pre-season workout, Tipoff, Sellers, Little and Whittle. It is hoped to get some assistance from Stouffville and the name of Paisley is prominently mentioned as a possible recruit. FEW PHEASANT BAGGED IN “SHOOT.”
For some reason or other the annual two-day hunt in surrounding townships last Friday and Saturday, failed to bring the usual results, and many hunters did not even get a look at a pheasant.
Hunter after hunter accosted by the scribe, shook his head indicating no luck. Since the usual number of birds were deposited in Whitchurch, Markham and Pickering townships last,spring, the trouble is being blamed on foxes. In all townships mentioned quite a few foxes were seen and it was not uncommon to see hunters carrying a dead fox.
Dawson Hare shot one in Jim Harris’ bush jus south of town, and Blake Sanders had the fun of seeing one run by his parked car as he say init, but he did not have his gun handy.
About the best luck we heard of came from Ken Laushway, Ringwood garageman, who killed two pheasant with one shot.
Whether the hunters got any game or not, they had a delightful day to tramp the country side, and we stayed in offices and stores and envied them.
Charlie Reesor just took twenty-five minutes to bag two dandy birds near Markham village. He went out for a walk, but had his goon handy, and so set the record for getting his game the quickest of anybody in the township.

Forgie has a record of three of his brothers to shoot at. Two brothers who played last season are now on active service. Incidentally, it has come to our ears that some of last years
‘s good navy team may perform for Markham this year. REPATRIATED FLIER ENGAGED AS COACH
Douglas “Jesse” James of Markham, who was recently repatriated to this country after serving overseas with the R.V.A.F. will guide the hockey destinies of Markham’s Junior O.H.A. entry this season.

I received your parcel the day and I was sure thankful.. We had just come in from a six day trip over quite a few hundreds of miles across France and Belgium. Believe me, we were sure tired, but we were up and on the road again early the next morning. However we do get a good look at the countryside as we drive along. Then at night we stop for a few hours before going on. I have seen lots of the big places, but my wish is to see Paris. So far I have to settle for a glimpse of it from a distance. I have been all over, Rouen, Lille, and lots of smaller places.
The best sight I have seen is the memorial at Vimy Ridge. It surely is a wonderful sight. So far as we fellows could see it seemed untouched, although I have read that it was damaged in spots.
They are fast cleaning up Caen where some of the hardest fighting took place. The last time we were through, we hardly recognized the place, there was such an improvement.
Sudden cold weather last week has speeded up arrangements for making ice at the local skating palace. the men too were shining up their curling stones in readiness for early throwing of the rocks at the curling rink.
Four Stouffville Boys Try Out for Markham Hockey Club
Four local boys, Gene Paisley, Ronnie Conner, Gordon Lewis and Allen Wells are practicing with Markham Junior O.H.A. entry, along with twenty other hopefuls. As matters look at present, the league will be made up of Markham, Richmond Hill, Newmarket and Whitby. Barrie Colts have been making a bid to make it a five team league, but there will be strong opposition from the other clubs owing to the distance to be travelled.

HARRY LINTNER WOUNDED
Mrs. Harry Lintner received word last weekend that her husband had been wounded fighting on the western front, presumably in Belgium. harry is the third son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Lintner of this town to be overseas, and it is sincerely hoped that his wound received will not prove to be of a serious nature.

We take the liberty to pass on to our readers a few lines from an airforce letter dated November 13 to the editor, from Major Neil Smith with headquarters staff, Mediterranean Forces, presumably in Italy, since we know that so many readers will be interested in hearing news of Dr. Smith. In part he says:
“for a long time I have been intending to let you know I have been rather homesick for The Tribune, since it used to come along for some years, but after we changes our base it could not catch up with us, and was stopped. I have not seen a copy since last January edition. Just so I will know a few people left around home in my five year absence, would appreciate having it sent regularly.
Winter is fast approaching us in this country, with the mountains a few miles away covered with snow and looking lovely and white in the morning sun. This as a land of mountains and rivers, mud and dust. Now it is rainy season and rubber boots come out. Canada still looks good to us all, and hope this will soon be over so we can return and enjoy it.”
Skating and curling may yet get underway before Christmas yet, if the weatherman provides the proper “breaK’ this week. Mr. Cliff Pipher, ice-maker for the local curling club had his ground work well completed before the recent mild spell. Clayt. Baker, we understand, was all set to make ice the day the thaw set in.

HIGH SCHOOL DROPS FIRST GAME 6-5
Stouffville High School dropped their first game in the inter-school hockey league on Friday night by the score of 6-5.
The game was a rugged affair throughout, and although the local puck-chasers climbed into a 3 to 1 lead in the opening period, the Scarboro boys tied it up in the second, 4-4, and counted two to the final stanza with only one reply from the home club.
D. Smith, Ken Schell, and Lloyd Jennings were the goal-getters for Stouffville. Though numerous penalties were meted out, with locals having the edge in this department, Agincourt failed to capitalize on any occasion when the home team was shorthanded.

Stouffville High School hockey team were unable to cope with Markham’s aggressiveness on Monday evening, and dropped a 4-0 decision to that school, to leave them in the cellar position in the league. However the locals were only out-lucked by an eyelash on several occasions from cutting down the Markham lead. Earl Lehman came closest to breaking the spell in the last period when he sailed in on the Markham, goal alone, only to be outguessed by the goaltender.

Stouffville Red Cross Fiends,
May I thank you one and all for the kind thoughts and good wishes which you sent along with your most welcome Christmas parcel. It was a little late as I received it today, jan., 25th. But that’s nothing new with our mail. We certainly do appreciate being remembered by the folks back home. It’s been a very long time away and I hope it won’t be much longer.
Your parcel arrived in very good shape although, I believed it had been opened, and the reason, is there is no knotted goods in it as the label states.
The weather is not too good here. It’s either rain, sleet mud or snow. There’s a lovely moon out tonight. We are right on the coast of the Adriatic. I think we will be glad to see the end of Italy. it’s just been one mountain after the other all the way up, and T really mean mountains. When you are driving over some of them you are right in the clouds. I’d sure hate to walk it but that is what the infantry has to do.
Must close now, hoping we may all meet again in the near future.
Cheerio,
Price Pugh PORT CREDIT TAKES OVER TOP BERTH

Harry Lintner Fought in Belgium bad Holland — Escaped Death by Miracle
Pte. Harry Lintner, son of Mr. and Mrs.. Edward Lintner landed home on Sunday morning, as the first Stouffville wounded soldier to be returned to this place. He reached Toronto from New York, after a quiet voyage aboard a hospital ship from England which took ten days enroute.
The municipal councillors, business men, war veterans, and other converged on the Lintner home at 3 o’clock, and extended a welcome to the returned man.
Reeve Nolan heading the group told Pte. Lintner everybody was delighted to have him back, and the object of the visit was to press home that fact. He referred to the distinguished service of the Lintner family — son Char;i.e. now in the firing line, another son, Bruce prisoner of war in Germany, and still another son Edward in training. “You, Harry, have gone through the ordeal with great honour, and we are proud of your record and that of your brothers.” the reeve concluded.
He called on Bert Lickorish, head of the Stouffville Comfort Fund, Mr. M.E. Watts for the veterans and Mr. F.L. Button, K.C., for the business men and Red Cross who each spoke briefly. Mr. and Mrs. Lintner both expressed their appreciation of the visit.
Harry Lintner went overseas in June, last year, attached to the Ordinance Corps, sometime after D-day he landed across the English Channel at Dieppe to fight through Belgium and France attached to the Black Watch. On the fateful Sunday he was wounded, he was back of the front lines, but well within shell range. Jerry apparently spotted him and his pal when one shell dropped uncomfortably close. They took shelter in a hole tat was well covered to repel such fire. The next shot dropped right on top of them, and the miracle is that both were not killed. The chum escaped, but Harry suffered a serious injury to one foot and has had several amputations since. However with his leg in a cast, and and a special contrivance to keep weight off the injured foot, Pte. Lintner walks about smartly, and looks the picture of health.
After 30 days of rest at home, he will receive attention at Chorley Park.
He told The Tribune he was flown back to England from Holland after being wounded. Speaking about the rockets he said his company was so close they could see them starting on their course to England. They left a streak of flame, but one could not follow them long since they travel a 3,000 miles an hour and reach their destination in five minutes.
This returned lad had every praise for the Red Cross and Comfort Fund, and for the treatment afforded him in hospital and during the journey home.He tells of an interesting episode when he drove a truck loaded with boots one very dark night. Not sure of his road, he enquired in a Belgium home for directions. The wife in that home, a very fine villa, happened to be a Canadian and he enjoyed lunch with the couple before continuing his journey.
When Pte. Lintner landed in Toronto on Sunday morning he was greeted by his wife and two daughters, Margaret 4, and Ann 8 years. Margaret was a bit shy of her daddy at first, but before many hours, she clung to him closer than anyone else. Pte Lintner’s parents wee at the receiving depot, also Mr. W.E. Morden

DID YOU TURN IN YOUR UNIFORM?
The newly sponsored baseball team of the Stouffville Lions Club which is rounding into shape, is badly in need of uniforms and any former member of Stouffville baseball team who are in possession of uniforms are asked if they would kindly turn them in to former manager L.E. O’Neill. The Lions voted $50 at their regular meeting on Monday night to start the juveniles off, but it is hoped that enough of the old outfits can be secured to outfit the boys. New uniforms are not being made at the present time.

STOUFFVILLE HAS TWO BALL TEAMS IN COUNTY LEAGUE
Stouffville who this season making their debut in the York County Lions Baseball league will be represented by two teams, juvenile and bantam.
George Smith former hurler in the city commercial league and Earl Cook, of Toronto Maple Leafs are handling the coaching duties, with the Lions Boys’ Work Committee of Elmer Daniels, Dr. Bodendistel, Milt Smith and Don Chadwick, as managing directors.
Leonard Simmons, Aurora, was named president of the York Lions Baseball league for 1945, with Bill Holloway, of Aurora as secretary, following a meeting of representatives of various municipalities interested. The league is the outgrowth of last years
‘s district baseball group and there were 13 teams entered this season.
A juvenile league with boys up to 19 on May 1, playing, finds teams entered from Richmond Hill, Stouffville, Milliken, Markham, Aurora, Unionville and Newmarket. the bantam section has all these centres entered with the exception of Newmarket, and the age limit is 15 years on May1.
The age limit this season corresponds with those of the O.A.B.A. and players may perform in either group if of age. There is no limit to the number of players that may be signed, but such names must be vouched for by the team manager and school principal.
Games are scheduled to start at 7 p.m. and four and a half innings will constitute a game if the umpires decide it is too dark or wet to continue. The home team is responsible for notifying the visitors of unfavourable weather conditions. Each team will keep a regulation score book and forward results to the secretary within 24 hours of each game. The home supplies the plate umpire and the visitors the base umpire. A $2 entry fee is payable by each club. this is the last year juvenile ball will be carried as the executive feels that boys of this age, having the benefit of tuition and support as bantam and midgets, should be able to arrange their own leagues and sponsors.
From the league will go a winner known as York Lions into the provincial midget play-downs early in the fall. games have been scheduled to start this week as soon as the diamonds are in shape. Every team is sponsored by a Lions Club. DROP BASEBALL OPENER 9 TO 7.
Stouffville’s senior entry in the York County Lion League dropped their opening game in Markham on Tuesday night by a score of 9-7. It was a typical pre-season ball with errors predominating on both sides.
Ringwood and Summerfelt were the battery for the winners, while Raxtin hurled for Stouffville with Schell behind the plate. Although the local nine gave a better account of themselves at the bat, than the home team, errors cur down the margin. Ken Schell homered in the third inning with the base clear.

EARL COOK TO PITCH FOR MAHERS, TORONTO.
Maher’s Victory Baseball League stock took an upward surge in Toronto over the weekend, despite a Saturday lose to Hamilton Thirstiness, when manager Jimmy Garlick announced the signing of hurler Earl Cook, last season with Toronto Maple Leafs of the International League.
The veteran right-hander didn’t report to the Leafs this season owing to salary differences and has been working on his Lemonville farm. He will make his initial 1945 appearance when Mahers meet Hamilton Thurstons in the second game of Wednesday Victory League bill at Maple Leaf Stadium.
the Lions Club is certainly to be commended for engendering the renewed interest in baseball, and a ready response can be seen from the public who have turned out in large numbers to watch the first games. geo. Smith, coach, along with the boy’s work committee have engaged actively in rounding up a couple of teams are to be congratulated on what they have accomplished.
Last week a contract was let to have the tennis courts re-opened with a new clay surface so that step-by-step the park is returning to its former beauty and usefulness as a recreation centre for the young people. Much work still remains and the lack of a Horticultural Society is felt strongly when the question arises, as to what to do with some of the flower beds and shrubs that were placed there years ago by this public spirited group, only to be neglected in later years.

HARDBALLERS SPLIT LAST TWO GAMES
After thoroughly trouncing Markham senior hardballers 13-2, Stouffville dropped a close 6-5 score at Newmarket on Monday night.
In last week’s game against Markham, the home squad were never in trouble and drove in runs in each innings with a five-run rally in the 4th. The Schell brothers formed the Stouffville battery.
On Monday night, Stouffville dropped a game which they had nicely tucked away by a score of 5-1 right until the seventh innings, when fielding errors allowed the Newmarket boys to shove over five runs and take the game. Lorne Schell was again on the mound for the home team. SUGGEST OLD-TIMERS PLAY TO BENEFIT KIDS
The suggestion has been thrown out by sports enthusiasts of North York with Ab. Hulse, Newmarket and Camp Borden sports columnist as the guiding light. that old timers baseball game to benefit the junior ball teams hereabouts would be a grand adventure.
There are quite a number around who might perhaps lend a hand in such an undertaking. From Stouffville we can think do Earl Cook, Red Forsyth, Wes. Boadway, eRg Button, with of course Shine davis as umpire. Down in Markham are Max Reese and brother Peter, both of whom played with Stouffville. LOTS OF BASEBALL THIS WEEK
There will be baseball in Memorial Park three evenings beginning tonight (Wednesday) when Milliken Juniors play here. On Friday evening, Richmond Hill Juniors will will be here, while on Thursday night at 7 p.m. the Senior team will line up against Milliken for a replay of the game which was rained out here on Friday. HARDBALL PLAY-OFFS IN TWO WEEKS
Best in League will Enter O.B.A. Play-Offs in Two Divisions
Play-offs for the champions of the North York Hardball League will begin in the second week of August. The first four teams in the Juvenile and Bantam divisions will play off, first and third and second and fourth teams meeting in home and home games in the first round.
When the league championships have been decided, a team in two of the two divisions, bantam and juvenile will be entered in the O.B.A. play-offs. Te bantam entry will carry the name of Richmond Hill, the midget entry, Stouffville.
it is most unfortunate that there can be no juvenile entry in the O.B.A. as this means that Stouffville will be bared from the use of their best quartet of older players, should they top the league finals. These players are 18 years old and cannot play in the 16-year-old midget class in which the officials of the league have made the entries. LADS HAVE STRANGE MEETING AT SEA
Probably the strangest coincidence yet to come out of this war regarding local fighting personnel is that which involved Jim Pearson and Dwight Forsyth of Stouffville.
Jim has just arrived back in Canada after several years in army service overseas. He relates that while being transported from England o Italy his ship stopped to pick up survivors of a torpedoed vessel, and there thousands of miles from home whom should he “fish” out of the sea, but Dwight Forsyth from Stouffville. The meeting must have been a thrilling event from all angles. Up until then neither boys knew the other was even in uniform.
Stouffville will meet Newmarket seniors in a hardball fixture here on Friday evening which is the final scheduled game before the play-offs begin. WRESTLING ENTHUSIASTS HELP SICK CHILDREN’S HOSPITAL
Writer of “Down the Centre” sports column in the Newmarket Era which so well covers York County sport realm has the following to say about Stouffville corner-store butcher. :Top fan of the North York district when it comes to wrestling is Harvey Schell, of Stouffville who hans’t missed a bout at Maple Leaf Gardens since a way back and regularly fills the same seat. He generally takes his cronies with him and know his wrestlers like very few of the faithful. recently he chipped in $25 for the Hospital for Sick Children. With Frank Tunney, Bob Wagner, Whipper Watson, Tommy McLure and some other fans including Liquor Commissioner Bill Webster helping close to $200 was raised for this worthy fund.

DARKNESS HALTS PLAY-OFF GAME
The second game in the semi-finals of the North York bantam league was called in the first of the fifth innings on Monday evening on account of darkness. There were two out at the time. The game was re-scheduled for Tuesday evening when the weatherman stepped in and the game was rained out.
Gary lewis started on the mound for the locals in the game with Burkholder behind the plate. Don Brown and J. Black were the Markham battery. Both sides were retired in short order in the first innings, but in the second frame markham came through with a barrage of three hits, to score three runs and drive Lewis from the mound. Stouffville countered with an equal amount of runs in their half, to tie the score. Markham gathered in two more in the third and three in the fourth off the arm of Roy Wood who replaced Lewis on the mound. Stouffville went on a batting spree in their half of the fourth, and count stood at 11-8 when the dust had cleared away.
Darkness made lay difficult in the opening of the fifth, and with Markham staging a determined comeback, Umpire Murphy called the game.
Stouffville took the first game in Markham 12-4 on Friday evening. Roy Ward was on the mound for the locals and held markham well in check. The Stouffville hits were scattered, and they scored runs in almost every inning.
There’s Quite a Bit of Zip in the “Old Boys” Yet
Some of the older baseball enthusiasts of fifteen years ago may have thought they saw shadows of the past in the park on Wednesday evening, as players of yesteryears lined up against the Lions Club juvenile team of this season. Two of the players on the “Old Boys” line-up are men who helped make the name of Stouffville famous in baseball circles in years gone by, and were still able to show the youngsters a good many tricks of the game. They were Red Forsyth and Wes Boadway whose names were always lined up with those of Reesor, Cook, Lehman, Glendenning, Pike, Lunau, Storey and others, when Stouffville was in there year after year for the Ontario Intermediate title. Starting on the mound for the old club was Jack Pennock, now of Aurora who loosened up the old soup bone to good effect for several innings. Jack along with Ross Wideman, who played third base, were on the Stouffville roster in the mid thirties. The oldsters were nosed out 10-9.

INTERMEDIATE BALL CLUB IS LIKELY HERE NEXT YEAR
While the Stouffville Lions Club baseball venture this year was a success so far as providing the youngsters with organized sport considerable change in the league setup is mooted for next season.
At decision was reached by the district Lions executive in charge of the sports, that only the Bantam teams would be sponsored next year. However, while the Lions provided the teams with the Lions provided the teams with the funds to purchased gloves and other equipment for all the players, many members of the senior club desired to own their outfits and re-purchased them from the club.
These older boys plus some former members of Stouffville’s pre-war ball team hope to organize a team of their own next year. Len Simmons, Aurora, president of this year’s Lions league has advised Stouffville’s manager, Ken Laushway that some of the other clubs are in the same position and that a county intermediate league would market response by Newmarket and Aurora. Other pre-war baseball-minded towns such as Uxbridge and Sunderland might also interested.
The local Lions will no doubt organize the bantam Club, but it is thought that the older boys can provide their own organization.
The public response to baseball here this past season has been reminiscent of the 30’s when baseball was in its hereby here. The Lions initial grant of $75 was augmented by collections which were required to operate the transportation and provided equipments. Any surplus which may accrue will no doubt provide a start for next year’s club. NO LOCAL PLAYERS IN BANTAM PLAYOFFS

JUNIOR O.H.A. HOCKEY GROUP IN THE MAKING
The nucleus was formed at a meeting on Tuesday evening for a Junior O,H.A., ‘B’ hockey team in Stouffville, and only waits for some differences to be ironed out, as to what teams in the surrounding country should form the league. The setup, which is desired by those interested locally would bring Stouffville, Markham, Richmond Hill and Newmarket into a four-team group.
The meeting was conducted by “Eddie” Crouch, hockey coach here in prewar years, and Elmer Daniels, chairman of this sports division of the Lions Boys’ Work.
In addition, Mr. Robb, former coach of the Lucknow, junior head which during this time, produced the famous Chinese kid line, that tried out with the Maple Leafs, also addressed the boys.

For Hong Kong Prisoner and this Insulting Fare was Endured without Salt, Say Allen Harper
A meat course of boiled dried grasshoppers, and broth from common grass, were on the bill-of-fare served Canadian captured at Hong Kong by the Japanese. Among the things that Allen Harper, prisoner for about four years will never forget, yet despite such eatables this ruddy-faced lad declares, it might have not have been so terrible had only some salt been available. The boys craved for salt, but never got any.
Allen is the second eldest of five sons, and one of four who enlisted from the family;y of Mr. and Mrs. Ross Harper. he reached home on Sunday after about four years, most of which time relatives and friends feared for the worst since no trace or word was forthcoming for so long.
he was among 1200 captured on Christmas Day little more then seven months from the time of his enlistment. Chief cause of falling prisoner was the fact the Royal Rifles arrived ahead of their equipment and were unable to fight with their guns and ammunition failing to catch up with them on the water voyage.
When captured they were sent to to what is known as the China Camp on Hong Kong Island. Food and medical supplies were terribly short, but no cruelty was practiced on them. For misdemeanors The Japs would slap the men. Rice formed the chief diet.
Allen stayed in the camp for a year, then the more fit were chosen and sent to Yokohama in Japan to work in the dock yards. If anything conditions were worse in Japan. The Japs slapped them but treated them no worse than they treated their own children. No news on the progress of the war reached the prisoners up to the second year, no mail, and no tidings of any kind whatever. It was not until 1944 that this boy received hid first letters from home, then at least two years old. Parcels were mainly stolen.
Unloading at the docks earned the prisoners ten cents a day. It was here that grasshoppers and grass became part of the fare, with a meagre rice supply.
In May this year Allen and a group of his companions were moved again. This time to Sendi, a section famous for its coal mines. They were put to work in the mines 4.00 feet below ground and it was hard going. By now about 30 had died of malnutrition and sheer lack of medicine. This camp was known as “Hell and Slavery Camp,” a name attached to it by the English whom they replaced.
They were given an issue of Japanese soap, and this was something even native civilians didn’t obtain. They broke the bars and gave part to the guards as a bribe for English papers. They were able to learn about the good turn the war had taken and there was a slight improvement in the treatment of us as defeat became possible for the Japs.
They were released one day after the the surrender was signed and were soon back in Yokohama, awaiting passage to America.
However, Allen was disappointed when they found a spot on one lung and he was kept for treatment. Instead of a boat he made the journey in several hops by air to San Francisco. In a stop in Saipan he was stricken with pneumonia and had another delay for three weeks.
Allen praised the good work of John Reid, nephew of Mr. John Reid, station master at Goodwood, who went with the prisoners from Hong Kong to Yokohama. He was often in desperation with sick all around him, and no medicine, on;y a few pills.. he was wonderful just the same , the lad thought. STOUFFVILLE HIGH WINS THREE TROPHIES IN BIG FIELD
Stouffville High School captured three of the trophies at the inter-school field meet held in Markham Fair grounds last week, while Markham took four and Agincourt none. The local school took the junior boys championship, Roy Ward collecting 17 points. The junior girls’ championship was also won by Stouffville, Helen Goudie getting 15 points, while Dorothy Wagg from this school tied Shirley Latimer from Markham for the intermediate trophy, each getting 8 points.
The junior relay race was taken by the Stouffville
school with a time of 2 minutes, 1 and three fifths seconds, while they placed second in the event in the intermediate and senior groups. Stouffville
also captured the event in the junior girls’ group with a time of 42 seconds, and placed second in the other two grades.
The meet was held under ideal weather conditions, and the home school is to be congratulated making such a fine showing at this first postwar competition. HOCKEY LEAGUE PRETTY DEFINITE
Eddie Crouch, who will manage a Junior O.H.A. hockey team for Stouffville this coming winter announced to a meeting on Monday evening, that a league comprising Stouffville, Markham, Richmond Hill and Newmarket is practically settled with O.H.A. officials. An effort will be made to have some Toronto ice made available for local boys for practicing as soon as possible. The league schedule will begin in the forepart of January.

LOCAL HOCKEY BOYS ANXIOUS FOR PRACTICE
May Have to Step Up to Junior O.H.A. Ruling Barring Outside Players
The two dozen boys who recently stated their intention of participating in a junior O.H.A. hockey ream for Stouffville are getting a little worried regarding the lack of practice. Markham and Richmond Hill have both been on the ice several times, and are shaping up fast little is known of Scarboro, whom it seems will be the fourth team in the league rather than Newmarket according to word received from the Markham management.
This same informant tells us that the O.H.A. has ruled that if a team from a centre the site of Stouffville plays one player who is imported from another hockey area, that team must be classed ‘B’ hockey. It would thus appear that this will be a ’B’ league, rather than a ‘C’, as all four team are expected to use at least one or more outside players.
None of the boys who have signed their willingness to make up the local squad have ever played O.H.A. hockey before but some have shown marked ability on school and bush teams, and the keener coaching they will receive in O.H.A. company should make them quite a potent club.
Markham took a T.H.L. team to the cleaners 4-0 in an exhibition game in the play last week. They have picked 18 players as possible team starters. They included Carl Sellers, Bruce and Howard Forgie, and Gordon Minton, as local talent.
Harold Chadwick who played with the Greenshirts last year, and is one of Markham’s most promising juniors, had the misfortune to break an arm during practice, and will be out of circulation for six weeks.
Grant Nighswander who handled the Lion ball team this year for Richmond Hill, is rounding up a number of hockey players in the Yonge St. town to enter a team in the Toronto junior league.
Stouffville High School dropped their opening soccer game with Markham 2-0 last week. The return match is being played today. JUNIOR HOCKEY

HIGH SCHOOL WINS FIRST SOCCER TILT
Stouffville High School soccer team won their game in four starts on Tuesday afternoon when they downed Agincourt by the score of 2-1. While the local booters have only emerged with the one win, they have only been edged out of the other contests by small with Agincourt anded in a tie 1-1. The first two contests were dropped to Markham, last tear’s champions by the scored of 2-0 and 3-2.
Stouffville’s line-up on Tuesday was as follows: goal, Bill Nigh; fullbacks, A. Smalley, D. Burkholder; halfbacks, Bob Werheral, Bob Timbers, C. Noxon; forwards, W. Moyer, K. Noxon, D. Smith, B. lCubine, C. Ellis; alternates, Kerswell, Miller and Lewis. STOUFFVILLE, UXBRIDGE AND WHITBY JUNIOR ’C’ HOCKEY
Since Markham, Richmond Hill and Scarboro are definitely decided to group up for Junior ‘B’ hockey this season, the local boys have been left rather high and dry, as they are contemplating an all-home team which would not be expected to compete with classy Toronto competitors who will wear the colours of the above mentioned teams.
however, O.H.A. headquarters have been contacted and Stouffville has been informed that their entry in the Junior ‘C’ can be teamed up with entries from Uxbridge and Whitby. Port Perry is still doubtful but Mr. Hewitt, O.H.A. president tells us that more entries in the group are expected as the season advances.
At a largely attended meeting of hockey prospects in the local arena on Monday evening, disapproval was voiced regarding the use of any Toronto players, and as quite a number of the boys were over the eighteen-year-old age limit, it was considered most advisable to put the team in the ‘C’ class if at all possible.
As to the question of management, the unanimous choice was Bruce “Ike” Harper, who has considerable experience, both in junior and intermediate ranks. We understand he has consented to take over the club leadership on the boy’s invitation.

HOCKEY CLUB TO FORM THIS WEEK
It is expected that this Wednesday, a hockey meeting of interested citizens will form an executive to head up the Junior O.H.A. ‘C’ hockey entry. The local boys who wish to comprise the team have been selected Bruce “Ike” Harper as their coach, and Coach Harper tells us that he is ready to put the boys through their paces, as far as condition is concerned, and will lead them onto the ice when arrangements can be made.
The Stouffville Lions Club at their regular meeting on Monday evening agreed to make a substantial contribution to start the team off, and it is believed that the team should be able to support itself once the schedule opens.
The O.H.A. announced this week that the following entries had been received in Junior “C’ from this area, and that they would be asked to meet in Port Hope under the convenership of Gordon Hawse of Whitby, to decide league groupings. The teams are Lakefield, Port Hope, Port Perry, Whitby, Uxbridge, Lindsay and Stouffville. LOCAL VOLLEYBALLERS GO TO NEWMARKET

Hockey Committee Hopes To have League Divided to Overcome Long Trips
Coach Ike Harper trotted his Junior O.F.A. entry into the local ice fort he first time this week and by the turn of the year hoped to have have pared down the large group trying out for the team, to the best working combination. The league is scheduled to begin early in January and must declare winners by March 1st.
At a meeting held on Wednesday evening, a committee was formed to take charge of the Stouffville entry, and they in turn selected the following officers: president, Blake Sanders; secretary/treasurer, Bruce Clark; committee members, Bob Snowball, Claude Brillinger, Ken Laushway, Chas. Nolan.
One of the main stumbling blocks which has arisen since the club was formed is the group as set up by the O.H.A. and which takes no less than eight clubs, some nearly 100 miles away. Stouffville is desirous of splitting the group into two sections as follows: a southern group of Stouffville, Uxbridge, Port Perry and Whitby: and a northern section of Port Hope, Peterboro, Lindsay and Lakefield. Officials are hoping to iron out these difference this week.
Markham will play in a six-team Junior ‘B’ group comprised of Oshawa, U of T, Scarboro, Richmond Hill, Toronto Chapmans and Markham.

DECIDE ON TWO SECTIONS FOR JUNIOR HOCKEY LEAGUE
Opening Game Here with Uxbridge on Jan. 4th 1946
The Junior ‘C’ O.H.A. group with which Stouffville has entered a team, will be divided into two sections it was decided at a meeting held during the weekend of representatives of all eight teams involved. Section (A) will comprise Port Hope, Peterboro, Lindsay and Lakefield, and section (B) will be Whitby, Port Perry, Uxbridge and Stouffville.
The winners from each section will play a best two out of three game sires to decide the championship. Incidentally the Peterborough entry is a junior ‘B’ team which will not enter the picture as far as play-offs are concerned. In the event that this team should top the northern group, then the second place team would be the one to play off with the winner of the Stouffville group.
The teams will play a double schedule beginning on January 2nd and ending February 12th. Stouffville’s home games will be played on Friday nights, with the first one against Uxbridge, Jan. 4th.
Coach Ike Harper has been putting his outfit through some real workouts during the past week and a half, and is quite satisfied with the material which is shaping up.

Stouffville will face off with Uxbridge in the local area on Friday evening in the first game of the current O.H.A. schedule.

Barring any switch in the lines on Friday night, it is expected that George and Jack Rumney will carry the mail in the first string line with Keith Jewett, Lyle Petch, and Earl Lehman on the second line. Burkholder, Paisley , Campbell are definite rear guards, with Allan Wells, Gordon Lewis, and Bob Sellers filling in the vacancies. Louis Raxlin will start in the nets with Jack Warriner as replacement.

JUNIORS WIN PORT 5-2, WHITBY HERE FRIDAY NIGHT
Stouffville Junior ‘C’ O.H.A. team scored their first win on Friday night by downing Port Perry 5-2 in a thrill-packed sixty minutes that had the crowd of over four hundred and fifty fans stamping their feet a good bit go the time.
While the ice was not the best, the management of the arena was being congratulated on the fact that the ice was available at all following such a prolonged mild spell. Surrounding rinks at Markham, Uxbridge, Unionville and Unionville had next to nothing in the way of ice.
The home team took the lead in the game midway through the opening period, Petch notching the counter from Jewett. One penalty was handed out during this session to Campbell, Stouffville defenceman.
Stouffville was hot in the second frame and notched two off the sticks of Paisley and Jewett without a reply from Port Perry, who fought back stubbornly against the Stouffville pressure. Tempers began to flare as the period progressed and referee Max Reesor handed put five penalties in the period, two to Port Perry and three to Stouffville.
Stouffville first line began to fly in the last twenty minutes, and Geo. Rumney made it four to nothing as the period opened. But Port Perry were not to be denied, and play was kept on even terms in the forepart of the period, and at 8.50, Hillier slipped one past Orville Rows in the local nets to make it 4-1. Sparked by this effort the Scugog boys fought back with new vigor and were rewarded again when a rifle shot from the side just caught the upper corner of the net. However a combination of he Romney brothers clicked again near the end of the period, when George made it 5-2 to end the scoring. There were three penalties meted out in this period. Stouffville being two men short at one juncture.
Goode was outstanding in the Port perry nets and drew considerable applause for his remarkable saves on what appeared to be labelled goals. The entire line-up worked like trojans right to the last bell, and despite the heavy going there was no ease up in the speed as the game progressed.
There were two innovations at the Junior hockey game here on Friday evening, when a public address system was used to inform fans who had done what in the matter of scoring and penalties and to provide music between periods. printed programs were also on sale listing the names and numbers of the players of each team, and carrying a series do advertisements by the local merchants.

Both teams will have their back to the wall, and Stouffville particularly are out to garner their sixth straight win on Friday, as this is the final home game of the schedule, the remaining three games being away.
There are no playoffs of the group, the team finishing first playing a best two-out-of-three with the team finishing on top in the northern section. which Lindsay is leading at the moment.
Stouffville 13 Port Perry 3
Moved into first place in their O.H.A. hockey group on Friday when they swamped Port Perry by a score of 13-3 in a junior contest here. While the Scugog team never gave up, they were completely unable to cope with the speed and stick handling of the local squad.
Stouffville scored five goals in the first period without a reply from Port. Jack Rumney collected three of these tallies, George Rumney one, and Minton one. The Rumney brothers combined for seven out of the thirteen goals scored, Jack five and George two. There were three penalties in the period, two to Stouffville and one to Port Perry.
Port was more aggressive in the second period, but Stouffville added two more to their total near the start. Jack Romney scoring after a minute and fifteen seconds of play and Minton getting his second tally at the six minute mark. t 7.04, Taylor for Port perry cut in fast from the right side, and caught the upper off-side corner of the Stouffville net to open the scoring for the visitors. A minute later Williams let one go from just inside the blue line which Moore let trickle through his fingers in attempting to clear, making it 7-2.
v ran away from the visitors in the last period adding another six goals, while Williams countered in one more for Port. George Rumney made it 8-2 at the 2 minute mark, Jack 9-2 at 5.50 followed by Lewis, two from Campbell and Th. fail from the stick of Lyall Petch.
The largest crowd of the season, nearly 600, was on hand for the game, and whooped it up at every opportunity, giving Port Perry some real sportsman support as they saw the visitors being hopelessly snowed under. Moore was almost unbeatable in the Stouffville net, while Williams was possibly the pick of the Port Perry lineup.

Never was a victory more sweet to Stouffville than on Wednesday night when they downed the Whitby Juniors by a score of 5-4. The game brought the local hockey entry into a first-[lace tie with the flying Whitby lads, and gave them an even break to go on and win this section of the group which they must do to go to the layoffs.
Stouffville stepped off a late bus for the game, and had scarcely but a few warm-ups shots before the face-off. As a result the team was badly disorganized for the first twenty minutes, and allowed three Whitby to score three goals without a reply. Moore was outstanding in the local net as he warded off the old boot heel from all angles. McCloskey set Gates up at the 4.10 mark while Moore and Hooker combined to make it 2-0. The third goal was scored by Morrison. Just as the period ended George Rumney hopped in on the left boards and rifled one past the Whitby goalie to open the Stouffville scoring.
The second period went almost entirely to Stouffville, Minton getting the second goal of the game along with goal by Jewett and Geo. Rumney. The visitors were making good use of their bodies in the mid-period, which Whitby did not appreciate, and were inclined to shoot from well out. gated scored Whitby’s fourth goal in this period, his second of the game. Lintner, Whitby’s high scoring right-winger was closely watched and kept off the score sheet entirely. Stouffville claimed a goal near the end of the second period, but after some argument the count was disallowed by referee Cy Allen.
Two of Whitby’s players, members of the R.C.N.V.R. were absent from the line-up.while Pascoe was struck full in the face by a flying puck near the middle of the last period and was taken out of the game. Whitby appeared to tire somewhat under the strain, and continued heavy bumping they were receiving at the Stouffville defence line, and at 16 minute mark the Rumney brothers combined on a nice passing effort to clinch the game for Stouffville. Whitby broke through on two occasions in the dying moments but were outguessed each time by More who was one of the stars on the ice. Minton also missed a couple of royal chances to add to Stouffville’s total, when he had the goal-keeper beaten and just couldn’t get his stick on the puck.
The game was cleanly played with only six penalties, three to Whitby and three to Stouffville. HEADS CRACK, DOCTOR SEWS UP CUTS
A head-on collision during the a game of hockey resulted in Davis Ratcliff and Norman “Butch” Steckley receiving nasty wounds to the head. Both players were gashed just above the eye requiring several stitches on each of them. On apposing sides, the game was between Baler Hill and Bethesda.
Hockey Player Seriously Injured
Lloyd Pascoe, star right-winger of the Whitby Junior O.H.A. hockey team was struck by a flying puck in last Wednesday’s game with Stouffville, was still in Oshawa Hospital on Monday of this week. Young Pascoe sustained a broken nose, and fear for the sight of one eye was expressed last weekend. However it was learned from friends that his condition took a turn for the better on Sunday.
There was a triple-header hockey program at the local arena on Monday night, with the following results: Stouffville Bantams defeated Markham Bantams 4-3; Markham Juveniles downed Stouffville Juveniles 4-3; and the local Veterans defeated Ringwood 8-1.

Whitby 5 Stouffville 4
Whitby Red Wings downed Stouffville Juniors by a 5-4 score on Friday night before the largest crowd to attend a hockey game here in many a year.
The win really places the home club on the spot for return game in Whitby tonight (Wednesday). Stouffville must beat Whitby to tie for the rug of the league. Although Stouffville came out on the short end of Friday’s score, they provided the 850 fans with the finest ding-dong hockey battle one would wish to see.
The none boys got to a trying start with two quick goals by Geo. Rumney, one at 22 seconds and the second at the 3.40 mark. Whitby fought back hard to overcome the lead and midway through the period hefting slapped in their first count, then tied the count just as the period ended.
In the second period BillLowe put Whitby out in front 3-2. Majchar making his first appearance for the County Town made it 4-2 a few minutes later. Moore stopped the shot and then had rebound slapped behind him. Whitby’s final goal came from Lintner’s stick, as he was parked on Moore’s doorstep and not the chance to save.
Stouffville went all-out in the final twenty minutes, and at the 17.20 mark, with Whitney short-handed Petch slapped one right under McEwen who was forced to turn handsprings to stave off the local power. With only forty-five seconds left Geo. Rumney notched the locals fourth goal. At this point Coach Harper took Moore out of the Stouffville net and gave Whitby a most hectic half minute with six forwards, driving shots at McEwen from every direction.
Lintner broke out of the melee as the game ended, but was skated off by Paisley, and missed the open net by feet. paisley was a tower of strength on the home defence.
Stouffville High School hockey team took a 13-0 shellacking at the hands of the Richmond Hill School team on Monday night.
Those who attend hockey games and start fighting, should remember that they are doing the club great harm. Right thinking people become disgusted and remain away from the next game, since the average person attempts to see a hockey match, not a fight.
Following the big hockey game here last Friday evening, the Stouffville players and executive members of the club were guests at a dinner at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Blake Sanders. Mr. Sanders is president of the club, and the treat was a very fine gesture.

RURAL HOCKEY FINAL MONDAY
Two rural hockey teams fell by the wayside in Tuesday night’s double-header in the Stouffville arena and leaves Vivian to battle out the final with the winner of Bethesda and Ringwood on Monday night.
Bethesda blasted Lemonville’s playoff hopes on Tuesday night, defeating them 5-1. Miller starred for Bethesda notching four goals, Percy Patterned getting the other tally. Noel Storry was Lemonville’s lone marksman.
In the second half of the twin bill, Vivian nosed out Baker Hill 7-5 after ten minutes of overtime. The game was a torrid affair from start to finish, and referee McNelly had to cool the boys out on more than one occasion. Jake Baker carried the heavy artillery for the losers, scoring four goals with assists by Simpson and Williams.
Vivian had more alternatives on hand for the game and proved a well balanced aggregation with the Hood brothers being the standouts, ‘Bun’ notching four goals and brother Bruce three. Goalkeeper Yakes put on a stellar performance in the Vivian net.
This Thursday night, Bethesda final, the winner meeting Vivian on Monday. LEASIDE HERE FRIDAY NIGHT
The Leaside Rotary Hockey Club will be in Stouffville this Friday night for an exhibition game with the Stouffville Junior O.H.A. team. A number of Leaside boys have been playing un Toronto hockey league of Junior ‘B’ calibre, and are expected to give the home boys quite a tussle. They are preparing to enter the Ontario play-downs next week. NEARLY 1,000 HOCKEY FANS SEE LOCAL JUNIORS HAND LUCKNOW THEIR FIRST DEFEAT
A record crowd of nine hundred and fifty cash customers jammed the local arena on Saturday night to see v Juniors hand Lucknow O.H.A. entry their first defeat of the season, 7-5 in an exhibition game
The game was thrill-packed right to the final bell, and one might have suspected that the Ontario title was at stake, such was the calibre of play.
Stouffville carried the big share of the play in the first period, and kept the famous Chin brothers well in hand. Minton, Jewett and Sellers picked up three counters for the home team, while the Chins combined for one goal for the visitors.
The other four goals for Stouffville were collected by the high-scoring aces, the Rumney brothers, Jack getting one and george three.
Lucknow had a slight edge in the second period and added two goals, to Stouffville one. Stephenson notched both the visitors in the final period making the score 5-all.
The break came with just ten minutes to go, George Rumney stick-handling right up the centre, to rifle in a bullet shot at close range, and make it 6-5. His third and the seventh goal was another neat effort at 18.05.
The game was fast and cleanly played, and both goal;-keepers rose to great heights i warding off the flashy forwards of both teams. Only two of the Chin brothers were able to make the trip, and Lucknow are confident they can even the count in the return game next week, when it is expected the Chin line will again be intact. WHITBY NOSED LOCALS FROM JUNIOR RACE
Stouffville passed from the hunt for the Ontario Junior ‘C’ hockey championship on Wednesday night when their Junior team was nosed out at Whitby by a score of 3-2.
Needless to say there was considerable chagrin in the local camp over the elimination but the excellent showing of the team all season, and Th. high pitch of hockey interest newly aroused must not be discounted.
Stouffville was apparently carrying a second period jinx, as Whitby have won both their one-goal wins over the home squad in this med twenty minutes.
Stouffville took an early lead in Wednesday’s game, Lewis slapping in a pass at the 3.30 mark in the first period. Stouffville continued to command the first period by a big margin, and only the smart work of McEwen in the Whitby net kept the locals from increasing their lead. The ice as very heavy and made smooth combination out of the question.
Whitby tied the count at 2.25 in the second period, Joe McCloskey getting the equalizer on a pass from Lloyd Pascoe who was back in the line-up for Whitby wearing a guard over his broken nose which he received in the previous game with Stouffville. At the half-way mark the County Town took the lead, Moore being the marksman. The winning goal came when Whitby was short-handed. Hefting stole a march on Stouffville players who were all busy pressing Whitby into their own end. The puck was batted out and Hefting skated in on Moore without opposition to make it 3-1.
With elimination staring them in the face Stouffville went all out to even the count, and Jack Rumney combined with brother George at the 12 minute mark to make it 3-2. The locals broke over the Whitby blue line three and four abreast only to have their plays broken by a stout Whitby defence, and McEwen turned the close ones aside.
Doug Moore, Stouffville starry little net-minder proved equally tough competition at his end, and blocked everything tat came his way.
The game was cleanly fought and referee “Squeak” Morrison of Oshawa handed out only three penalties, for minor infractions, two to Whitby and one to Stouffville. CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations were expressed in the daily press last week to the local Junior hockey committee and their hundreds of loyal supporters for providing hockey again this year for the kids of Stouffville and surrounding area. GRAY COACH LINES PROVED POPULAR WITH HOCKEY FANS
A new departure in Stouffville for attending the Junior hockey games this winter was the use of the Gray Coach Lines bus for out-of-town trips, and the move proved a most popular one with the fans, who clamored for more tickets than were available on each trip. George Green, popular driver of the coach is to be commended for his share in the handling of the accommodation. POLISH OFF PORT PERRY IN FINAL LEAGUE GAME
Stouffville juniors played their last league game with pert perry on Monday night, and downed the Scugog boys 7-3. It was probably one of the best games Port Perry has played in the entire season and they managed to hold the visitors at bay for two periods with the score tied 3-3. However Stouffville put on the pressure for the last round, and created something of a record by scoring three goals in 31 seconds. They added another in the dying moments to total seven. Minton collected three goals on the night, Jewett two, Paisley one, and Jack Rumney one. Stouffville was without the services of George Rumney, who received a heavy bang in the ribs in Saturday’s Lucknow game and sat on the sidelines Monday. O.H.A. PLAYOFFS HOCKEY

Ringwood will carry a goal lead into their final game with Vivian tonight (Wednesday), having taken the first game of the best of two series on Monday. Lewis, Goudie and Abel did the scoring for the Maroons, while for Vivian, Fockler, Mulholland and Hood were the sharpshooters. Vivian played Monday’s game with only two substitutes, but expects to be at full strength tonight. JUNIOR GAMES CREATE BIG INTEREST
the exhibition hockey game scheduled for the local arena next Monday between Stouffville and Markham is expected to draw considerable fans between these do rivals. While Markham is a Junior ‘B’ club and Stouffville a ‘C’ outfit, the home team is a little above the average in the ‘C’ grouping, and is expected to be able to give the higher club quite an interesting time.
Markham was recently eliminated from the Junior ‘B’ race by Oshawa. It is planned to play home mad home games with Oshawa, although both may be played in Stouffville.
The game will commence at 8.30, and their will be two referees on hand for the affair. DID YOU KNOW ?
That experiment carried out by Dr. Dane Warren of Omaha University estimates that the average speed of a hockey puck is 88 miles per hour, when shot at a new. An instrument know as an oscilloscope was used to estimate the speed.
Stouffville 14 Leaside 4
Stouffville defeated Leaside Rotary Club by a score of 14-4 on Friday night, and while the score was lopsided, it did not indicate the calibre of play as the Leaside boys gave a good account of themselves despite the nine goals the home team rapped in on them in the last period. Sellers and Minton were the big guns,getting seven of their team’s 14 counters. While players on both teams were nearly all of juvenile playing age, the visitors found the Stouffville club quite a rugged outfit in comparison with what they are accustomed to play.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas THREE IN ONE
Its not too often that three Stouffville teams play on the same night but it’s even more unique when the three local clubs score important victories. Such was the case on Saturday evening when Stouffville’s Bantam, Midget and Senior teams defeated playoff rivals. The bantams downed Port Perry 5-3, the Midgets defeated Sutton 7-1 and the Seniors trimmed Newmarket 10-4. Hard to believe but it’s true. LADY BYNG AWARD
Each year in the National Hockey League the Lady Byng Trophy is awarded to a player who displays the most gentlemanly conduct on the ice. If the Metro group made such an award, Newmarket would make their candidate high-scoring Ken Sinclair. Stouffville, I believe has a player who might rightly make a claim for such a prize award in centre star Ken McNeil. If the season’s statistics were looked up you could probably count on four or five fingers the number of penalties handed out to this hard-driving forward. Since joining the Clippers in the season of 1953-54 “Tiger” as he is commonly called by his team mates has never been banished with a major penalty. In fact it would be a very rare occasion that he would take time out to drop his gloves if for nothing else than self defence. Players like Ken McNeil are hard to find, especially those fresh out of junior hockey ranks. He’s our pick for the Lady Byng award and there are few who will dispute the selection. A FINE JOB
Congratulations are due to the coach of Stouffville’s Junior ‘D’ Red Wings, Polly Minton. Polly in his first season as pilot of the Juniors has done a great job with these young lads and the club seems to improve with each contest. Admittedly during the regular schedule the Red Wings at times didn’t look like playoff contenders. In fact even their most ardent supporters felt that Unionville would walk over both Stouffville and Noble- ton. Now Unionville is on the outside looking in while the Red Wings and Nobleton battle it out for the group honors. Even after a most pitiful hockey performance, Polly never lost confidence in his team. He believed he had a winning combination and so far his predictions have proved correct. Every coach likes to have his team win games during the schedule but it’s the do-or-die playoff contests that really count. The Red Wings have improved almost one hundred per cent since they took to the ice early in December and we think their chances are good to bring a Junior ‘D’ group championship to Stouffville this season. THE PLAYOFFS
I wonder how many residents of Stouffville and district really know what the hockey playoff setup is at the present time with four teams battling their way toward Provincial honors. It may be difficult for even the most ardent sports enthusiasts to know who is playing who. In an effort to clarify the situation, I will try to separate the individual teams and point out their standing at the present time. The Bantams operated by Les Clarke, Cec Hendricks and Ken Betz have entered the third round of playdowns. They now meet either Marmora or Wellington on Thursday night of this week. They have so far defeated both Sutton and Port Perry. The Midgets operated by Casey Hilliard, Don Davis and Derek Chadwick are also in their third playoff round. They play Unionville here on Thursday night, having eliminated Uxbrldge and Sutton. The Juniors operated by Polly Minton and Len Buckland meet Nobleton for the group championship. The Seniors are presently in the thick of a round-robin battle with Orillia and Newmarket for the right to move into further provincial play. They meet Orillia here on Saturday night. Well sports fans. that’s the setup. Another week could bring about some drastic changes, but lets keep our fingers crossed and hope for the best. CLIPPERS EDGE ORILLIA 2-1 ON STEPHENSON’S GOAL
With less than five minute remaining in the game, Frank Stephenson potted the winning tally to give the Stouffville Clippers a 2-1 verdict over Orillia Pontiacs on Friday night in the Couchiching centre. His shot from the corner hit a skate and bounded into the net. Nick Bangay notched his first goal of the season on a break away with the Clippers playing a man short in the late stage of the contest. Orillia yanked their goaltender from the net in favor of an extra forward. For sixty long seconds the Pontiacs pelted rubber in the general direction of the Stouffville cage but sub-netminder Terry Sye warded off the persistent attack with some brilliant saves. In the final play of the game, with Sye sprawled on the ice, Orillia’s big Ab Bowen blazed a shot at the open goal but Sye reached up and deflected the drive into the corner. The two teams meet again here on Saturday night. LOCAL TEAMS WIN EVERYTHING
Bantam, Midgets, Seniors, win Sat. Night Playoff Games
Stouffville’s hockey teams had reason to celebrate on Saturday night. The Bantam, the Midgets and the Seniors scored important playoff victories. The Bantams advanced into the third round of the Ontario playdowns by beating Port Perry 5-3 and the Midgets trounced Sutton 7-1 to advance into further provincial play. The Seniors took another step in their quest of a place in the group finals by beating Newmarket 10-4. That’ a fine record for Stouffville Hockey Clubs. The junior Red Wings although not in action on Saturday night have moved into the group finals against Nobleton. On Thursday night of this week the local teams take to the ice again. The Midgets play Unionville here and the Bantams also have a home contest with either Marmora or Wellington. The Clippers journey to Newmarket for a big game with Herbie Cain’s Redmen. CLIPPERS LACE REDMAN 10-4, LED BY MCNEIL
Herb Cain’s Newmarket Redmen are in trouble — real trouble. Having dropped their two playoff starts to Orillia 7-4 on Thursday night and to Stouffville 10-4 on Saturday night, the Redmen now find themselves fighting with their backs to the wall. The clippers led by Ken McNeil were goal hungry. They outskated, outchecked and outbumped their rivals from the drop of the puck and after taking a 3-0 lead in the first period they never looked back. They added four goals in the second frame and sewed up the contest with three more in the final session.
Ken McNeil Tops
Saturday evening might well have been termed “Ken McNeil Night”. He figured in 7 of the team’s 10 goals, scoring 4 and assisting in 3 others. Besides playing the top role in the Clippers offensive attack he was used to kill off Stouffville’s four penalties. His sensational 2-way performance earned him the No.1 star of the game.
The former Unionville Junior ‘B’ star notched his first tally of the night at the three minute mark of the first period. Geo. Stark and Chick Webster assisted on the goal. He fired 3 more goals in the second frame. The most spectacular of his 4 goal barrage was a break away tally at 12.15 of the 2nd period. The hard-working pivot player was parked at centre ice with Geo. Stark of the Clippers in the penalty box. Right winger Ken Crawford grabbed a loose puck in front of the Stouffville net and rifled it onto McNeil’s stick. The pass caught the Newmarket defence flat-footed and before they could get back into position the puck was in the net.
Rhodes Good in Goal
Stouffville netminder “Dusty” Rhodes was the goaltending master on Saturday night. He outperformed his rival Jim Cruikshank who appeared a little shaky at times. On two of Newmarket’s four goals the agile goalie kicked out four or five persistent shots by attacking forwards before the disk was finally shoved over the line. The first goal scored by tree-wheeling Russ Brankston was on a clean-cut breakaway giving Rhodes no chance to make the stop. It marked the second fine performance in as many nights for Clipper netminders. Sub goalie Terry Sye was equally as good at Orillia on Friday Night.
Big Line Blocked
Newmarket’s $1,200 line of Ken Sinclair, Russ Brankston and Gord Boniface was
blocked on every scoring attempt. The Stouffville defence of Joe Scatalon, Don MacIntosh, Nick Bangay and Ed Calhoun rocked “The Big Three” when they ventured over the blueline and the high scoring trio became increasingly wary as the contest progressed. Brankston was the only member of the “moneyed line” to blink the light throughout the sixty minute game.
Goals Well Divided
Aside from McNeil’s scoring splurge, the remaining tallies were well divided. Gordie Haddleton fired two goals and picked up one assist, while Geo. Stark, Hal Gibson, Chick Webster and Elwood Small lit the lamp for the winners. Stark drew three assists while Gibson and Webster assisted on two each. Scarcello, Hearn, Reid and Brankston were the Newmarket marksmen. RED WINGS SPLIT WITH JETS, GAIN BERTH IN FINALS
Polly Minton’s amazing Red Wings have done what the experts believed was impossible. They took three points out of a possible four from the Unionville Jets, a team that through the regular schedule held the upper hand over the Stouffville squad. A 4-2 win over the Jets in Unionville and a 5-5 saw-off here on Thursday night provided the local crew with the needed points. They will now meet Nobleton for the group championship and the right to enter further Ontario play-downs.
The work of Don and John Tran on the Red Wings front line and the timely return of Harold Hodgson to the Stouffville defence proved to be big factors in Stouffville’s march to the finals. In the game on Thursday night both local rearguards Hodgson and Grant Wagg outshone team mates Tip Vipond and Ted Mendyk. Hodgson was especially effective in power play attacks while Wagg held the fort against constant Unionville pressure and was a tower of strength every time out.
For the Jets, McDowell and Atkinson carried the Unionville attack and counted four of the teams five goals. Darbyson did not dress and was missed on the Jets first line. Middleton and Stunden also worked hard for Unionville.
Stouffville racked up a 3-1 lead in the first period and appeared well on their way to scoring their second straight playoff victory over their sixth concession rivals. John Tran notched the opener for the Red Wings and cousin Don Tran made it 2-1. The Jets counted their first tally at 8.10 with Les Jarvis of the Jets and John Tran of Stouffville serving roughing penalties. Don Tran flipped Harold Hodgson’s rebound into the net to end the periods scoring.
In the second frame Unionville outscored Stouffville 2-1. With Bruce Fockler off, Bruce McDowell poked a loose puck over the line to cut down the Red Wing’s lead. The ace centre star added another to tie up the game at 4.30. With three minutes remaining in the period Harold Hodgson fired a slap shot from the blueline that caught the bottom corner.
It took Unionville winger Bob Atkinson only a minute and a half to deadlock the score for the second time in the game. At 9.35 Jim Rennie deflected Harold Hodgson’s blueline drive into the Jet’s cage but Atkinson roared back again whistle to tie up the game with Hodgson sitting in the sin bin.
The two clubs battled through ten minutes of overtime but neither team could blink the light. Unionville had the best chance when Middleton let go a drive from right wing that slipped through brother Bruce’s pads but caromed wide of the corner. The game ended with both teams battling hard at the whistle. SKATING CLUB TO HOLD OWN COMPETITION

They now move into the third round of the playoffs and will meet either Marmora or Wellington here on Thursday night. The Stouffville victory marked the end of one of the tightest struggles ever waged by a minor league team here. The locals dropped the opener 5-4 but rallied to win the second game 6-5 to tie up the series at ten goals apiece. An extra game was then called to decide a winner.
Norm Hendricks and Glenn Pennanen were Stouffville’s top marksmen on Saturday night. Each scored twice. Gary Baston notched a single goal. The homesters trailed 3-1 at the end of the second period but two goals by Hendricks and tallies by Pennanen and Baston sewed up the game for Stouffville.
Goalie Max Vague again turned in a fine performance for the winners. Defencemen Dean Evans and Earl Thompson looked good for Stouffville. The second game of the series will be played early next week.

We wouldn’t be surprised if the drug stores were completely sold out of liniment on Saturday after the hockey epic in the Arena on Friday night. The “old-timers” certainly made a marvelous comeback attempt and they are to be congratulated for their fine effort despite a 3-1 loss to agile Bantams. Never have we seen hockey crowd in the arena so wrapped up in a game. There were those who showed their enthusiasm by cheering on their favourites while others roared with laughter. One cannot take anything away from the All-Stars however. Man for man there wasn’t much to choose between the two clubs but the old-timers lacked the combination passing plays of Les Clarke’s Bantams. Don ‘Rocket” Lehman was without equal on the ice and he amazed the fans with his skating and stick- handling ability. Len ‘Boom-Boom” Wilkes was a steady performer for the “old boys” and made no mistake with his shot after taking a pass from Gar “the bouncer” Brown as he steamed in over the bantam blueline. The “old-timers” big 215 pound defence star Bill Sanders Sr. was a tower of strength on the All-Stars blueline although he as completely deked out of position on one occasion by 120 pound Bill Sanders Jr. and toppled heavily to the ice. The most sparkling defensive performance was turned in by goalie Bill ‘Vezina’ Lennox in the “old-timers” cage. To say he had a busy night would be putting it mildly, he was literally vulcanized with rubber. His job was made even more difficult when the “old-” ran into a flood of penalties but he weathered the storm and only allowed three pucks to slip by him. Coach Tom Wedseltoft of the “All-Stars” used Cec ‘Teader’ Hendricks to grab the face-offs when his team was a man short, but Coach Clarke countered the strategy by sending out team Captain Norm Hendricks who got the draws nine times out of ten.
All joking aside it was a tine show. Players of both teams enjoyed every minute of it and the crowd was equally enthusiastic. If these former Stouffville stars can once again find enough energy to pull on the pads and lace up the skates they will no doubt attract a full house. Of all the “old-timers” questioned the following day not one admitted the slightest trace of aching muscles or tired legs. We understand however that a number spent a few extra hours in bed the next morning. HERE AND THERE

CLIPPERS BOUNCE BACK, WIN 7-2 OVER ORILLIA
Stouffville 7, Orillia 2
Stouffville Clippers staged a sensational comeback on Monday night as they whipped Orillia 7-2 for their first victory in the current best of seven final playoffs. The two move back to the Couchiching centre on Wednesday night with the fifth game back on Saturday. Bob Bangay’s squad looked more like the team that headed the recent round-robin series as they out-hustled the visitors in every period. Three veteran performers paced the Clipper attack as Chick Webster, Geo. Stark and Frank Stephenson each notched a pair of goals. Elwood Small fired the other tally. Orillia’s goals came from the sticks of Red Favero and Al Shewchuk.
In the opening minutes of the game Orillia took charge and for a few hair-raising moments it appeared possible that the homesters might be headed for their third straight setback. The period, however, was only five minutes old when centre star Gordie Haddleton obtained possession of a loose puck at centre ice and flipped the rubber to Frank Stephenson who was driving in on the right wing. Stephenson’s drive caught the far corner of the Pontiac cage for the first Stouffville tally. Elwood Small made it 2-0 when his weak shot slipped between goalie Shropshire’s skates into the bottom of the net. Gordie Haddleton was standing in front of the Pontiac cage and blocked the goalie’s view of the play.
At 18.27 Chick Webster, playing one of his finest games of the season, took a pass from Ed Calhoun at the Orillia blueline and rifled a hard shot into the top corner of the net. His tally was similar to Stephenson’s opening goal.
Penalties Almost Fatal
In the early minutes of the second frame, Stouffville ran into a number of costly penalties and Orillia took advantage of their extra manpower to give Clipper netminder Jack Rhodes a hazardous time. It took Favero only ten seconds to break the goose egg when he intercepted a bad pass by defenceman Ed Calhoun and blinked the light as the puck rolled a fraction of an inch over the line. Al Shewchuk put his team right back in the game with a bullet drive from the blueline. Aside from the two shots that evaded
him, netminder Rhodes proved to be a real stumbling block in the path of advancing Orillia forwards.
Geo. Stark Scores Two
Geo. Stark always a head ache to Orillia defenceman was in fine form on Monday night and sparked his clubs attack every time out. His neatest effort was at 6.43 of the second period when he grabbed a loose puck near the Orillia net, skated in front of goalie Shropshire and backhanded the disk over the prostrate netminder as he flopped to the ice to make the stop. The dashing winger completed the Stouffville scoring at 8.24 of the third period when his shot from loft wing caught the corner.
The two teams set a terrific pace from the drop of the puck. Tempers flared on numerous occasions but referees Andy Bellemer and Eddie Hodgson ruled with an iron hand. They handed out twenty-two penalties, eleven to each club. There were two majors, one to Ed Calhoun of the Clippers and one Clary Payne of Orillia. In the closing minute of the contest Calhoun and Johnny Wood of Orillia became engaged in a high-sticking duel. Wood was sent to the dressing room to cool off when the fracas threatened to develop into a major showdown. DON TRAN RECEIVES CALL TO ST. KITS
Don Tran, hard skating centreman, with Stouffville’s Jr. ‘D’ Red Wings this season, received a letter recently from Coach Rudy Pilous of the St. Catharines Teepees requesting he appear a their hockey training camp on March 20th. In an effort to discover new hockey talent, St. Catharines hold a week’s training session early in the spring. Don expects to make the trip west for a tryout with the Jr. A squad. It was only last season that he played in the Stouffville Lions Peewee League and although eligible for a position with the Midget team this season, he decided to make the jump into Junior ‘D’ ranks. He was one of the top goal scorers on the club and centred the teams number one line. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Giles Tran, of Dickson Hill and attends the Stouffville District High School. EDITOR’S MAIL
Dear Sir,
Has the Stouffville Arena killed pleasure skating for this town? I think so! Where are our graceful skaters of yesteryears? Enjoying themselves in other rinks where they are given a few considerations or have they hung up their skates due to the treatment they have received from this Arena? Many are attending other arenas in the nearby communities. Why? Simply because they can no longer enjoy pleasure skating in this town due to ice conditions, poor music and the conduct of our teenagers. The young fry no longer attend the rink to skate but to fool and play tag as well as loitering in centre ice and along the boards. Many work in a little hockey practice as well. A pleasure skater does not enjoy being body-checked nor having a tag player rushing the wrong way in his direction. Skaters have been seriously injured by this rude behavior. Nor does the pleasure skater want to pay 50c to skate on ice that has been used for a regular hockey practice just before he is allowed on the ice. The least the management could do is to flood before the skaters step out. 1 skated recently in a nearby arena where they flooded at intermission. On Saturday night the so-called music was nothing but jazz until intermission. How does one stroke to this sort of music.
I also have a suspicion that the freezing unit is turned off for the first part of the evening as the ice is soft. After intermission the ice is harder and the atmosphere much colder. Is this fair to the pleasure skater? Such treatment would never be handed out to the hockey players. They are not expected to skate on ice that is all cut up!
Another fact that discouraged skaters from the surrounding community was the switching around of skating nights. You cannot expect a person to drive several miles to skate only to find on arriving that a hockey game is in progress.
The directors of the arena maintain that there is no financial gain from public skating. Have they ever tried to encourage attendance for public skating?
As a shareholder I think it is time to give the skater a little consideration and try to revive the art of a graceful pleasure skater. A few years ago Stouffville was noted for its pleasure skaters. Where are they today?
A Skater SELECT LOCAL PEEWEE TEAM FOR GODERICH TOURNAMENT
A picked team of Peewee players from the Stouffville Lions League will journey to Goderich during the Easter week to represent the town in an All-Ontario tournament. They will be classed according to population. This is the first year that a representative has been sent from Stouffville. The boys will be transported by car to Goderich and will be boarded in homes around the town free of charge. The young lads who will be making the trip are as follows: Norman Galbraith, Lynn McMullen, Larry McMullen, Allan Boyd, Marvin Betz, Geo. Malcolm, Larry Malloy, Rick Wedseltoft, Warren Hendricks, Roger Stover, Wayne Pennanen, Glenn Jackson, Bill Ratcliff and Jim Malloy. Both Marvin Betz and Glenn Jackson have been signed for goaltending duties and Lynn McMullen may fill in between the pipes if necessary. The local team will keep playing in the weeklong tourney until they are defeated.

Playoff penalties can be costly. They can mean the difference between a win and a loss, between a group championship and a runner-up. On Saturday night here in Stouffville four of eight goals were scored with players sitting in the penalty box. McCone opened the scoring for Orillia with Haddleton off in the first period and Ab Bowen blinked the light for the Pontiacs. In the second frame with Geo. Stark sitting out a tripping penalty. Stouffville also struck for two tallies while the visitors were playing a man short. Ben Chapman notched the homesters second goal with Al Shewchuk off and Frank Stephenson hit the twine for Stouffville in the third period with Wood sitting in the cooler. A penalty not only forces a team to go on the defensive but makes the remaining five players on the club work twice as hard. On Saturday night Orillia and Stouffville will be battling for the group honours. One of the teams will drop out of the running, while the other advances into further senior competition. Don’t be surprised if penalties decide the winner. HERE AND THERE

Dear Sir,
The Directors of the Stouffville Figure Skating Club are interested in the letter which appeared in your newspaper last week, concerning certain unfavorable conditions prevailing in regard to Stouffville Arena. The Directors of this club would like to make it clear that we have found conditions in respect of our club reasonably satisfactory.
We can appreciate, through the season, certain factors develop which are not agreeable to all and dissatisfaction among certain groups is bound to occur.
The aim and endeavour of our club is to further skating in all its forms in this community. To create further interest and to encourage more people to skate we propose to form a family skating group for next season. Only by unified effort can general conditions be improved. The success of this project depends on the response of the general public. Any of the Directors will be pleased to answer any questions. President – Lionel Foord; Directors – Mary Baker, June Button, Walter Smith, Mary Smith, Harold Tatton, Ted Topping. CLIPPERS AND PONTIACS BATTLE TO A 4-4 DRAW
Its going to be a battle right down to the wire. the Stouffville Clippers and Orillia Pontiacs will battle it out here on Saturday night for the group honors at the present time both clubs have two victories and a tie for five points a total of eight points is necessary to take the series a record crowd is expected for this showdown match.
There wasn’t much to choose between the two teams on Saturday night. At the end of the second period the deadlocked score was a true indication of the play early in the final frame the Couchiching crew had a slight edge and took advantage of the breaks to pop in two goals. The Clippers however weren’t to be out done as they roared back to pull up on even terms. In the overtime session Orillia were a tired lot and Stouffville had a definite bulge on the visitors. Goalie Bob Shropshire was the main stumbling block in the path of the advancing Clipper forwards.
Elwood Small was Stouffville’s hero. His bullet drive to the top corner of the Pontiac net with less than 3 minutes remaining in the final period literally brought down the house. His goal was a most deserving tally as the Shropshire was beaten cleanly on a previous shot only to have the puck glance off the post. Small is without doubt one of the finest two-way players to perform under the Stouffville colours for some time. His game in and game out effort is with out equal in the Metro Sr. loop this season.
Orillia struck first in the opening period as Earl McCrone, one of the best on the ice for the Pontiacs, rifled a backhand drive past goalie Rhodes. Stouffville’s Gordie Haddleton was sitting out a charging penalty at the time. The Clippers pulled back on even terms at 11.50 when Ken Crawford grabbed a goalmouth pass from Ken McNeil and slipped the puck over the blueline. Defenceman Don Macintosh picked up an assist on the play. In the early stages of the 2nd frame, centreman Ken McNeil had a great opportunity to put Stouffville out front when he snared a loose puck at the centre red line and skated in alone on Shropshire but his bullet shot to the top corner missed the target. With Geo. Stark of the Clippers serving a tripping penalty, Ab Bowen scored for Orillia from Graham and Grigg. Clipper defenceman Ben Chapman notched the equalizer with Al Shewchuk of the Pontiacs in the sin bin.
All appeared lost for Stouffville in the third frame as Orillia counted two fast tallies. Rusty Aiken blinked the light at 4.24 and Ab Bowen scored unassisted thirteen seconds later to take a commanding 4-2 lead. The “old Bangay spirit” prevailed however and the homesters battled back on even terms to extend the contest into an extra overtime period. Frank Stephenson sizzled a terrific shot into the top lefthand corner that caught goalie Shropshire with his guard down and Elwood Small blazed a similar shot into the twine with less than three minutes left in regulation time. The Clippers came within an ace of sewing up the game in the final minute but their hurried shots failed to connect. In the overtime period Stouffville had a big edge but Shropshire proved to be the master and held the Clippers off the score sheet. Hal Gibson made a spectacular solo rush down the right hoards but Shropshire robbed the Stouffville speedster of a sure goal with a great stop.
The three stars on the Stouffville lineup could probably be selected from Elwood Small, Don MacIntosh and Frank Stephenson. Ken Crawford looked good as did Ken McNeil and Jack Rhodes. For Orillia Ab Bowen, Earl McCrone and Bob Shropshire were best. The largest crowd of the season witnessed the overtime thriller. OVERTIME GOAL, JUST 37 SECONDS LEFT
Ken McNeil, star Clipper centre man, broke up a thrilling overtime game at Orillia on Wednesday night of last week when he combined with Ken Crawford and Geo. Stark to score with only twenty-six seconds remaining in the ten minute overtime period. It marked the end to a thrilling seesaw battle between the two rivals and evened the series at two games apiece. It was McNeil’s second tally of the contest. He put the Clippers one goal ahead in the 3rd frame on passes from Bert Baker and Geo. Stark, only to have Vic Grigg tie it up at the seven minute mark from Robertson and Favero. The game was a bitterly fought struggle from the opening whistle. Both goaltenders Jack Rhodes of the Clippers and Bob Shropshire of the Pontiacs turned in sparkling performances. Elwood Small put Stouffville out front at 6.45 of the second period with assists going to centreman Gordie Haddleton and defenceman Ed Calhoun. Six minutes later Johnny Wood of the Pontiacs tied the score from Nelson and Gerow.
The third frame saw the Clippers move out front again on Ken McNeil’s tally but Orillia roared back and Grigg tipped the puck behind goalie Rhodes to even the count. McNeil sent fifteen hundred Orillia fans home disappointed with the winner in the overtime session. Ab Bowen and Ben Chapman were banished for roughing immediately following the goal by McNeil but no damage was done while they were serving time in the cooler. It was a great game to win for Stouffville and a heart- breaker for Orillia. There wasn’t much to choose between the two teams with every rush by either club being dangerous.

By Jim Thomas END OF THE LINE
The Senior hockey season came to close in Stouffville on Saturday night. Although Coach Bob Bangay, and the players offered no excuses for their defeat at the hands of the Couchiching crew the loss did rest lightly on their shoulders. The y trudged for the own the wooden stairs to the dressing room and sat quietly in their regular positions Could it be passible that Orillia had actually pushed them out of the group playoffs? It was is also true, but they didn’t want to believe it. In the corner of the dressing room sat Jack “Dusty” Rhodes. He dropped bis stick on the floor, tugged at his sodden goal mitts and wiped the beads of perspiration from his forehead. A wry smile crossed his face as sub-goalie Terry Sye came down the stairs, slapped him or his back and congratulated his fine performance. Coach Bangay voiced his praise of Rhodes great work between the pipes, both in the final game and throughout the series.
“We didn’t take advantage of the few breaks we had,” said the Clipper coach. those first two games were important wins for Orillia.”
Over in the other corner of the room ,Ronnie Bell, Don MacIntosh, Ken Crawford and Bert Baker sat almost motionless. They passed an occasional comment to each other on the game but they spoke quietly.
Ken McNeil quickly pulled off his hockey equipment. His sweater was soaking wet. With an “1’11 be seeing you” farewell he threw his baggage over his shoulder and disappeared up the stairs.
Chick Webster, sat on the bench staring pensively at his scuffed skates. “they saw me through this winter and should be good for three more seasons:, he joked as he turned them over in his hands.
“It’s my last season,” said Elwood Small. “Mine too,” declared Ed Calhoun.
“Well, one thing we can spend a little more time at home,” spoke up Hal Gibson. Geo. Stark agreed.
“The law of averages says that Orillia deserves one championship in seven years,” commented Tim O’Neill Defenceman Ben Chapman complained about the penalty called by referee Maurice Walsh for charging Shewchuk. It was while he was serving time that Orillia scored their goal.
“ I gave the game everything I had,” said little Gordie Haddleton. He was still dressed in his hockey attire when the others were leaving the rink. Hardly had the player become settled in the room when Orillia’s big Ab Bowen came lumbering down the stair, “nice game fellows,” he said as he nodded to each player. When questioned about the forthcoming series with Kingston his only comment was, “1 think we should make it a six point game.” Slowly, one by one, the players stuffed their hockey garb into their bags and trudged wearily out of the room. it was the end of another season. What will next October bring? We’ll just have to wait and see. HERE AND THERE

For the first time in seven years, Orillia have won themselves a Senior group championship. They wrapped up the title on Saturday night with a 1-0 victory over the Clippers in a hard fought battle. The Pontiacs captured the group honours four games to two with one game tied.
Saturday nights contest was virtually a goaltenders duel. Both Bob Shropshire in the Pontiac cage and Jack Rhodes in the Clipper net were outstanding. Rhodes pulled off two fantastic saves on breakaway chances by forwards Ab Bowen and Danny McDonald. Bowen attempted to put the puck right through Rhodes but the Clipper goal smothered the drive from point-blank range. McDonald almost pulled Rhodes out of his pads but at the last second he blocked the shot with his stick. It was the best stop of the series. At the other end of the rink rival netminder Bob Shropshire had his share of work and earned the shut-out. He was given solid support by defenceman Grigg, Favero and company. His best stop was off centreman Chick Webster in the third period. The roof fell in on Stouffville’s chances when defenceman Ben Chapman was thumbed for charging Shewchuk. Orillia notched their one and only goal while he was in the penalty box.
In the closing minutes of the last period, Graham of Orillia was penalized for holding Haddleton. Both forwards, Ken McNeil and Eddie Crust had good scoring chances but missed. At the bell, Stouffville players offered congratulations to the winners and wished them well in their forthcoming series with Kingston.

EARLY BIRD
Stouffville has always been and still is a sports-minded town both during the winter and throughout the summer. There is sports activity either in the arena, on the ball diamond or on the football field. Taking everything into account there probably isn’t a more enthusiastic group of sportsmen in town than the men who nightly congregate down at the extreme south end of the park and toss horseshoes. While the baseball uniforms are still packed in moth balls and the tennis racquets remain stored in the upstairs attic, if you wander down to the “pits” you are sure to find someone testing his skill. So enthusiastic are these men that on Saturday afternoon of last week Messrs. Cliff Pipher and Walter Vague engaged in a horseshoe pitching duel. Mr. Wm. Grove, President of the Stouffville Club says its the earliest horseshoe season in his recollection. The two men say their arms feel as good as ever. HOW OTHERS OPERATE
During the past few weeks there has been considerable talk concerning the treatment of pleasure skaters at the local arena. In an effort to compare our rink with that of another neighboring municipality I visited the newly opened Richmond Hill arena on Saturday night. In spite of the inclement weather there were about 250 skaters on the ice, seventy-five percent of which were teenagers, twenty percent under 12 years of age, and five percent 20 years of age and over. The music was produced by an automatic record player through four amplifiers located in the centre of the rink. The music was very good and well adapted to the type of sport. The ice was very hard and smooth. No hockey practice is allowed prior to pleasure skating. The ice is scraped during the intermission but is not flooded as in most arenas. There is the usual group that gathers in the centre of the ice. Racing and playing tag is not permitted al though some persist in doing it. A number of stern warnings were issued over the loud speaker by the arena manager.
The price of admission to the Richmond Hill arena is 50 cents and 5 cents. The arena manager expects the attendance to decrease in time. “The young people here have been longing for artificial ice.” said the manager. Anew cement floor will be laid in the arena this spring.

PEEWEE WEEK
In Stouffville busy sports life the past few days might well have been named “Peewee Week” as far as hockey was concerned. The Peewee League held the sport spotlight. The baseball reason, although just around the corner, could not dampen the enthusiasm of these young puck chasers while the door of the local arena remained open. As far as these boys are concerned they would have winter twelve months of the year. It would permit them to pack some equipment into a bag and wander down to the rink for a game of hockey. These boys take the game seriously whether a weak-ankle youngster struggling from one end of the arena to the other or a well-developed star. They live from week lo week and from April to October for a chance to play hockey. Stouffville has a fine hockey setup, probably one of the best for size in Ontario and it is our hope that this well organized arrangement may be continued.
For many of the Lions Peewee players, the greatest thrill of their young hockey careers came on Wednesday night when their team, the Maple Leafs, captured the “Jim Austin Trophy” and the League Championship. for some it was a repeat performance but for others it was an entirely new experience. The slogan “it’s great to be a winner” was never more aptly portrayed as on the faces of these boys as they flocked off the ice with the coveted trophy. Another slogan “it takes a good team to lose” was also very evident as the Black Hawks, although disappointed, joined together and gave the champs a rousing cheer. Some of the professional teams might well take a good lesson in sportsmanship from these young lads. After Wednesday night some sixteen boys turned their eyes towards Goderich. This was something really new. Some of the boys had never faced a team from another town or played on a rink other than Stouffville’s artificial ice. It was like a young rookie stepping out on the ice in the seventh game of a Stanley Cup Playoff. Yes they lost, but only by two goals, a creditable showing for any town.
The hockey season in Stouffville has now officially ended. The Peewee League commenced operations late in October and the first scheduled game was played on Nov. 13th. Since that time, these six teams comprising l100 lads between the ages of eight and twelve years, have taken part in twenty-two games besides a number of practice sessions and exhibition contests. it’s been a good season. We’ll see you down at he rink next October. LOCAL PEEWEE ONE OF 60 TEAMS AT GODERICH
Stouffville picked Peewee team left on Tuesday morning for Goderich. They were scheduled to meet their first opposition on the same afternoon. The team will represent the Stouffville Lions Club, who has sponsored the league here for the past four years. A team sponsored by the Markham-Unionville Lions Club has also been entered the elimination series started on Saturday. and will continue throughout the Easter holidays until a champion is declared. Each village, town or city is classed according to population. If the local entry should be successful in winning their first round they will board out in homes around Goderich. There will be close to 1,000 boys taking part in the tournament. The team met at the arena on Tuesday morning and left shortly after nine o’clock. Cars were provided by Tom Wedseltoft, Lambert Malloy, Ed Dawson, Cec Hendricks, Ken Betz and Howard Malcolm.
The Stouffville entry comprised the following lads: Norm Galbraith, Lynn McMullen, Larry McMullen, Allan Boyd, Marvin Betz, Geo. Malcolm, Larry Malloy, Rick Wedseltoft, Warren Hendricks, Roger Stover, Wayne Pennanen, Glenn Jackson, Willard Peddie, Jim Malloy and Eldon Wagg. Bill Ratcliff, one of the teams belter players, could not make the trip due to an injury suffered over the Easter weekend. DON HAYNES AT LEAF HOCKEY CAMP
Don Haynes is attending the Toronto Maple Leaf hockey school this week. He accepted the invitation of one of the Leaf scouts following the completion of the Midget playoffs. Don was judged to be the best player on the ice in the Cannington-Stouffville series. If he fails to make the jump to Jr. ‘A’ category next season, he will probably perform with Stouffville in a junior group. He played one game of junior here this winter in the final contest against Nobleton. MAPLE LEAFS WIN PEEWEE CHAMPIONSHIP
Barry Wilkes’ amazing Maple Leafs completely fooled the experts or Wednesday night of last week as they blanked Casey Hilliard’s Black Hawks 4-0 to at win the Stouffville Lions Peewee Championship by a mere one point margin. The Leafs went into the game with seven points on three victories and a tie. The Hawks were undefeated with four straight wins for an eight-point total.
It was the winners’ top marksmen that turned the trick. Rick Wedseltoft paced the Leaf attack with two goals while Don Eddington and Larry McMullen notched singles.
The game was only a few seconds old when Wedseltoft slipped the puck into the Hawk net behind goalie Glenn Jackson. For the next ten minutes the battling Black Hawk squad held a big edge in the play but they couldn’t sink the rubber behind netminder Wilkes who pulled off some fine saves. Hawk forwards Harold Harper, Ron Stewart, Warren Hendricks and Wayne Pennanen ail had some fine chances to sew up the game for their team but many clear shots failed to hit the target. Goalie Wilkes took no chances on close-in plays and pounced on every puck that ventured near his cage.
When it appeared likely that the Hawks would take over the lead, Jim Malloy grabbed a loose puck on his own blueline and fed Don Eddington a perfect pass at centre ice. The Leaf ass’t captain broke into the clear and made no mistake with a low shot to the far
corner of the net. From that point on the Leafs looked and played like real Champions. Casey Hilliard’s Hawks were forced to open up and the Leafs were given opportunities to score on breakaways. The teams were nearing the halfway mark in the game when Jack Redshaw of the Hawks and Jim Malloy of the Leafs were penalized for roughing. It was while both clubs were short handed that defenceman Larry McMullen of the Leafs skated through the entire Hawk team and scored his team’s 3rd goal. Rick Wedseltoft sewed up the championship for the Leafs late in the last period on a pass from Ron Stewart.
Mr. Jim Austin presented the Peewee trophy to the Captain of the Leafs, Roger Stover. Coach Barry Wilkes and ass’t capts. Don Eddington and Rick Wedseltoft received congratulations from Mr. Austin, the League Chairman. The Black Hawks, although disappointed, took the loss like real sportsmen and were quick to congratulate the Champs.

Do you think its possible to operate a girls softball group without any arguments or protests this season umpires who will be handling the home games of the four entries Stouffville, Elgin Mills, Peaches and Agincourt have been instructed to clamp down oil arguing which tends to hold up the contests any player who insists will be benched regardless of team or position the umpires will also see that the teams stick to bench rules e.g. no smoking etc. any team that enters a protest must forward 5 to the league president and if successful the money is returned the umpires certainly have their jobs cut out for them this season if they can enforce the rules it will tend to promote better ball and a better league. SOFTBALL AND BASEBALL DON’T MIX?
The old adage that softball and baseball don’t mix isn’t correct as far as geo stark and Jack Watson are concerned the two local players are performing with the red Sox in t lie Tri-County league and also with Buttonville in the Markham township softball circuit Starks recent batting spree in both groups has been nothing short of spectacular with the red Sox his average is hovering around the 300 mark and with Buttonville his performance has been equally good on Thursday night of last week he pounded out a home run a triple a double and a single in five trips to the plate since joining the Stouffville squad his play in left field has been very steady and with Buttonville we doubt if there’s a better short stop in the league there’s a big difference between the feel of a softball and a baseball in fact the two games although similar in some respects are vastly different in many other ways the bats the distance between bases not to speak of the rules are considerably different playing both games has meant very little to Jack Watson with the Red Sox . He has held down both a left field position and second base with Buttonville be has taken over his familiar spot at third base the experts have said it cant be done only time will tell. STARK’S BIG BAT LEADS TEAM TO WIN
George Stark, currently one of Stouffville hottest ball players since joining the red Sox is one of the fop batsmen on the club and with Buttonville softballers he is equally potent.
On Thursday night of last week the Sluggers clubbed their way to a 11-6 victory over Unionville. Stark clouted a single a double, a triple and a home run in five times at bat. It was the most outstanding batting display by a single player to date in the Markham Twp. League. Buttonville were trailing 1-0 in the second inning when Stark connected for a solid four-base clout to tie the score. In the fifth inning he tripled and drove in a run and in the seventh he singled to drive another across. He complete his final turn at the plate in the eighth by pounding out a double into centre field. Jack Rumney went the distance for Buttonville. He gave up 11 hits, walked 6 and struck out four. Cliff Cox on the mound for Unionville allowed seventeen hits, walked four and fanned three. For a time it appeared possible that the visitors might upset the Sluggers as they broke into the lead on three occasions but Buttonville surged ahead in the late innings and salted the game away. Gord Macklin romped home in the third inning for Unionville to give his club a 2-1 advantage. Geo Clarke and Cliff Cox added runs in the fourth before Buttonville could find their batting eyes. In the bottom half of the fourth inning Jack Rumney singled with two on base to put the homesters back in the running. Ronnie Bell crossed the plate on Stark’s triple in the fifth to even the score and Jerry Junkin rounded tile sacks on Rumney’s three bagger in the sixth to put Buttonville in the driver’s seat. A six run outburst in the final two innings sewed the game up for the Sluggers. Singles by Bud Watson, Clare Fockler, Geo. Stark and Jack Rumney in the seventh and hits by Ronnie Bell, Geo. Stark and Jack Watson in the eighth completed the rally. Unionville’s late game runs were counted by Jack Harper and Gord Macklin.

Martin O’Heaney says: “Lawn Bowling is one of the competitive games. It is believed to have started with the Egyptians and was developed in England in the sixteenth century. It was a favorite with Sir Francis Drake, and George Washington in a devotee. It is now one of the most popular of pastimes. It is supposed by many non-bowlers that it is a game for mature or aged people. The fallacy of this belief has been proved in the past few years as with curling, a kindred game, for younger participants have been winning their share of competitions. It is a game of skill and relaxation for men and women young and of mature age. It provides not too strenuous exercise combined with individual and team play. A game that the whole family can enjoy. Mother and daughter in the afternoon father and son under the lights. They can all join together on the mixed nights — truly a family game. Very little equipment is required by the prospective bowler; bowls and a pair of soft soled low-heeled shoe are al that are needed. If you are
sixteen or sixty you will enjoy lawn bowling and when you have once taken it up you will regret that you had not done so earlier. LAWN BOWLING NEWS

Aurora started to roll in the fourth and they appeared to gain batting strength as the contest progressed. They scored single runs in the fourth and fifth innings, four in the sixth and two in the seventh to deadlock the game. The game was called on account of darkness by Umpire Len Buckland.

Grant Winters, popular Aurora softball star and around athlete was hospitalized last week with serious injuries as a result of an electric shock received at work. Fans are pulling for him to make a rapid recovery — Bert Baker, Buttonville’s bard-hitting catcher received a nasty crack on the nose during a softball game at Markham on Tuesday night when be stepped into the path of a swinging bat — The second game of the Tri-County semifinals between the Red Sox and Lindsay will be played here on Monday night — Stouffville girls will not enter the PWSU this summer — The Lindsay-Stouffville soccer game scheduled for Saturday night was cancelled due to hurricane “Connie”.
An umpires job is a thankless one. It is very seldom that an official on the bases or at the plate is given as much as a thank you for the important service that he performs for a ball club. This season, Len Buckland has officiated for the Juniors, the Bantams and for Buttonville, and has never asked for a nickel of remuneration for his work. Certainly if any ball club finds itself in the red here this summer, it won’t be because of the fees demanded by Mr. Buckland. He’s a good man to have around. His kind is very scarce in neighboring ball parks. LOCAL GIRLS LOSE 8-2, THREE HOMERS CLOUTED
Home run clouts by Edna Stickley, Fern Hoover and Eleanor Reid spelled defeat for Stouffville girls here on Monday night as Peaches racked up an s2 victory. each of the winner’s circuit hits came with a player on base and accounted for six of the eight runs Joan Haynes on the mound for Stouffville and Marj Barber working on the hill for Peaches went the distance for their respective clubs and hurled good ball.

SOX OUST LINDSAY, TWO STRAIGHT
Stouffville Red Sox marched to the Tri-County league final on Monday night as they whipped the highly-rated Lindsay Walkwoods in two straight garner 7-2 and 27-5. A large crowd of more than 300 spectators watched the homesters pile up a tremendous lead as they clubbed three Lindsay pitchers for 23 hits in the nine inning contest. Lorne Schell, Stouffville’s nifty mound ace, was in top form despite a lengthy lay off he limited the visitors to six hits, walked two and struck out nine.
Start Early
The local batsmen had no intentions of letting the series drag out to a third and final game. A walk to lead-off batter Bob Hassard and an error on Les Clarke’s infield ground ball allowed the first Stouffville run to cross the plate. The Red Sox sewed up the game in the second inning. A total of 12 batters paraded to the plate and whacked out four singles and three doubles to knock starting pitcher Harold Williams off the mound.
No Relief
Relief twirler Jack DeBois took over on the hill from Williams but the hungry homesters continued their hard hitting attack. In the fourth inning Ted Cadieux, Geo. Stark and Les Clarke received free passes. Don Haynes and Lorne Schell singled and Bud Lehman doubled and Bob Hassard blasted a triple with the bases loaded to push seven more runs across the plate and run the total into the double figures.
Pitchers Parade
The Lindsay management in a desperate attempt to half the route pulled DeBois from the mound to give Williams his second opportunity to make good. He ran into trouble again in the sixth when Ted Cadieux and Ken Schell singled and Lorne Schell smashed a ground rule double into deep centre field. DeBois made his second appearance in relief of Williams and held the Red Sox off the score sheet in the seventh. In the eighth inning, however, the local squad regained their batting eyes and clouted the ball to every corner of the park. Art Gleeson took over midway through the eighth and finished the game.
Lose Heart
Some of the Lindsay players appeared to lose heart as the one-sided game progressed. In the eighth inning alone they committed four errors. Their chances of lengthening the series to a third game received a rude jolt in the third inning when the Lindsay plate official thumbed catcher Art Truax from the game for using abusive language. Brother Reg Truax took over behind the plate for the remainder of the contest.
Best Batters
Lorne and Ken Schell collected eight of Stouffville’s twenty- three safe hits. Lorne clouted three doubles and a single while brother Ken clipped Lindsay pitchers for two doubles and two singles. Bud Lehman had two singles and a double. Don Haynes and Murray McMullen each had three singles while Bob Hassard teed off for a single, a double. a triple and was issued two bases on balls. Jack Henley was Lindsay’s best at the bat clouting a triple and a single.
Brief Rally
Lindsay staged an attempted rally in the fourth inning and counted three of their five runs. Doubles by Jack DeBois and Bob Lewis, a triple by Jack Hennesy and a single by Growden pushed three tallies across the plate. Single runs in the third and ninth innings were unearned. Lorne Schell handcuffed the visitors until the fourth innings when he gave up four of the six hits. The next stop along the championship trail will be against either Sunderland or Port Perry. Sunderland are heavy odds to move into the finals as they dumped their rivals 6-1 on Monday night. The Red Sox management hope to arrange one of the final tilts for Monday night of next week in the local park. TOWN GIRLS FINISH SCHEDULE IN THIRD PLACE
The four teams in the Markham Twp. Ladies’ Softball League swing into playoff action this week. In the semi-finals Stouffville will square off against Agincourt and Peaches will battle Elgin Mills in a of three game series. The finals will be three out of five for the Ernie LeMasurier trophy.
In regular schedule play, Agincourt a topped the group with Peaches. Stouffville and Elgin Mills following in that order. Elgin Mills, the group champions for the past two seasons, failed to win a game this
summer. A number of their key performers vacated their positions and made it necessary for the coach to fill in with less experienced players. Grandma Morrison handled the mound chores in practically every game. MIDGETS BEAT HILL IN OBA OPENER
Stouffville midgets chalked up their initial victory in the current OBA playoffs when they downed Richmond Hill 11-2 here on Tuesday night. Harry Barber on the mound for the winners went the full live innings and had little trouble subduing the Yonge Street opposition. The homesters spotted the visitors two runs in their first trip to the plate but came up with three runs in their half of the inning. A walk to Ross Madill, an error on Barry Wilkes’ ground ball, a walk to Don Haynes and a single by Bill White counted the locals three tallies in the second inning Stouffville added four more runs to their total. Gord Eckardt was hit by a wild pitch, Harry Barber and Ted Suzuki singled and errors were committed on Ross Madill and Barry Wilkes to account for the runs in the third inning. Gord Eckardt led off and was clipped by another wild pitch. Singles by Harry Barber, Barry Wilkes and Don Haynes pushed two more Stouffville runs across the plate. The homesters added single tallies in the fourth and fifth innings. Gord Eckardt singled and scored on Harry Barbers infield hit. In the fourth Don Haynes walked and romped home on Murray Holden’s single in the fifth Harry Barber was best at bat for Stouffville clipping Richmond Hill pitchers for 3 singles in 3 trips to the plate. The second game is scheduled for Richmond Hill and the 3rd if necessary will also be played away from home. If the local squad is successful in winning the first round they expect to meet their next opposition here on Saturday afternoon. Nothing definite has been decided on this, however.

RED SOX WIN TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE TITLE
The Stouffville Red Sox are still Tri-County league champions for the third straight year. The championship silverware will rest in this town this season. The Red Sox under Coach Bob Hassard were forced by a strong Sunderland club to go five games before they finally knocked off their rivals right in their own back yard. Stouffville fielding possibly one of the most powerful teams in years ran wild up a Sunderland and clubbed their way to a one-sided 13-3 victory. It was a bitter setback for the sunder land supporters who believed they had a group winner. The Sunderland fans are the most rabid of any park in the league. Their hostile attitude toward many of the Red Sox players made the homesters all the more determined not to relinquish their grip on the coveted cup.
Just as Lindsay felt the full force of a sustained Stouffville attack, so Sunderland were the victims on Monday afternoon. As the game progressed the Red Sox bats became more explosive until darkness finally the rout. Sunderland in the ninth so Stouffville’s four runs in the top half the inning didn’t count. Geo. Holbourne on whose arm, rested Sunderland’s hopes of toppling the defending champs, was clipped for hits in evening inning except the fifth when he retired the side in order. He ran into trouble in the seventh and was lifted in favour of relief mounds man Moe Hammer.
Bud Lehman enjoying one of his best seasons with the Red Sox slammed two tremendous home runs out of the Sunderland park. Ken Schell, always a dangerous man at the plate, clubbed a four bagger early in the game. He had a terrific night throughout the entire contest clipping Holbourne for four hits in five times at bat. Bud Lehman had two hits and two walks in five appearances. Les Clarke and Lorne Schell each had three safeties. Seven of the nine local performers had at least one hit in the eight innings.
Another season of thrilling baseball has ended. The home town Red Sox have added another red ribbon to their collection. They are certainly worthy holders of the Tri-County championship.

by Jim Thomas NO JUNIOR TEAM
It was with considerable surprise and regret that we learned early this week that Stouffville will not ice a Junior hockey team here this season. the Red Wings faded out of the hockey picture with such suddenness that even the payers themselves were surprised by the sudden turn of events. A couple of weeks ago some twenty enthusiastic players turned out for practice — this week, the same lads are scattered between Unionville, Brooklin and Whitby, many not knowing whether they will be paying hockey or not this season. Some are enquiring about the formation of a Juvenile club but information concerning this setup is very vague. What is the reason for such a shake-up? There are two reasons. The first — no sponsor: the second — lack of hockey talent. Every one know that these days it is impossible for an O.H.A. team to operate without a sponsor or financial backing from some source and I don’t blame the management for being downhearted concerning the lack of funds. As far as playing talent is concerned, that foolishness. Every team can’t be champions. Last season, Stouffville’s Junior squad went into the playoffs, the underdogs but they nocked off Unionville and came very close to ousting Nobleton, who later went on to take the honours. Once a team folds up and its players are scattered to the four winds, it takes a lot of organizing to bring it back. it should be remembered that it is the Bantam, Midget, Juvenile and Junior teams that will supply future stars for our Intermediate roster. A chain is just as strong as its weakest link. CLIPPERS BEAT OAKVILLE 4-2 TO OPEN SCHEDULE
A hard-fighting Stouffville Clipper club opened the Intermediate ‘A’ hockey season here on Friday night by posting a 4-2 victory over Oakville Meteors.
The Clipper took a 3-1 lead in the 2nd frame and each team scored once in the last period
The threesome of Chick webster, Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman notched two of the Clipper’s four goals. Another line comprised Don Ferguson at centre with Hoard Bullock and ken Crawford on the wings. Polly Minton worked between Bill Bradbury and Jack Watson. Don McIntosh, Les Clarke, Jack Snell and Ronnie bell formed the defensive unit.
Prior to the start of the game, and between periods, the Stouffville Youth for Christ boys’ band played a number of selections. Hundreds of dollars worth of fine prizes were given away
Reeve Elmer Daniels officially dropped the first puck and both the Reeve and the president of the Arena, Mr. Walter Brillinger, spoke briefly.

WEBSTER PACES CLIPPERS TO 6-2 WIN OVER MILTON
The Stouffville Clippers, riddled by injuries, came up with their best performance of the young season on Tuesday night as they dumped the highly rated Milton Co-Ops 6-2. Chick Webster, veteran centre for the homesters, sparked the victory with a dazzling four goal effort. The hard-driving pivot appears headed for his finest year since donning a Clipper uniform. In the five games he has played to date he has notched seven goals and picked up three assists for a total of ten points.
Four of Stouffville’s top players are now playing for Milton. Forwards Ken McNeil, Gordie Haddleton, Frank Stephenson and defenceman Joe Scatalon were blocked on almost every move.
Norm Stunden came through with some neat stops in the final frame when a half a dozen labelled shots were picked of the glove of the agile netminder.
Webster started the ball rolling at 10.30 of the first period and by the end of the second frame he had parked four pucks behind ex-Barrie goalie, Marv. Brewer. Bud Lehman, leftwinger on the first line, scored one goal and picked up three assists for a good night’s work. Jack Watson completely out-decked goalie Brewer for the Clippers’ other goal.
In the sixty minutes game, referee Jim Crombie handed out a total of twenty-eight penalties, fifteen to Stouffville and thirteen to Milton. Four were majors and one a ten minute misconduct. Don Mcintosh and Bud Lehman were banished for five minutes for the Clippers while Joe Scotland and John Boffer of Milton each spent five minutes in the cooler.
Every member of the 11 man Clipper team played his heart out for the victory. Andy Closs, Le Clarke, Ronnie bell and Don McIntosh held the fort on defence and, with the exception, of two goals, Norm Stunden guarded his net with hid usual steady style. RED WINGS KEEP PACE PEEWEE NHL
Dawson’s Detroit Red Wings kept pace with the front-running Canadiens in the Lions Peewee N.H.L. on Monday night as they downed the last place Chicago Black hawks 6-1. Barry McLean, currently the top goal getter in the league, led the Red Wings attack with four goals. The other Red wing goals were counted by Charles Blacklock and Roger Forsyth. Hard working Keith Stewart notched the lone Hawk tally.
The Boston Bruins came through with their initial victory of the young season on Monday night as they defeated the maple Leafs 5-1. Donald Watson paced the Bruins attack with two goals. Single tallies were notched by Jim Miller, Allan Anderson and Stan Barclay.
Montreal Canadians chalked up their third straight victory to hold their one point edge over the second place Red Wings. Glenn Jackson scored his first shutout of the season by blanking Rangers 3-0. Francis Haylow banged in two goals for the winners with Warren Hendricks scoring the other. Hendricks’ tally was the result of a sensational rink-long dash with the Canadiens playing a man short. Larry McMullen and Roy Lewis were among Montreal’s best. LADIES’ BOWLING LEAGUE

Hendricks and Redshaw each scored two goals and picked up one assist while Holden assisted on two tallies. Ted Suzuki and Garry Usherwood notched the other Stouffville goals.
The second line of Ted Suzuki, Dean Evans and Ernie Abraham showed plenty of drive every time out. Both Evans and Suzuki potted goals.

In two games between Stouffville and Port Perry, Stouffville Bantams suffered two loses. In the first game Stouffville had numerous chances to break the goose egg when the bounced the puck off the goal post three times. Only the fine work of Stouffville goalie Beasley kept the homesters in the game.

In the second and third frames, Stouffville outscored their rivals 3-1. Coach Bill Lennox used both netminders Roger Beasley and Ron Mortimer.

by Jim Thomas MET THEIR MATCH?
Have the local Midgets finally met their match in the group? Up until Friday night the Flyers had been literally coasting through their opposition. They established a fine record of five straight victories and it appeared likely that they would go through the entire schedule without a loss until Brooklin entered upon the scene in the two game home and home series. Stouffville was able to salvage only one point out of a possible four. The first game played here on Friday night could have been won by either club although I believe Brooklin was rather fortunate to stave off surging Stouffville attacks and settle for a split in the points. Brooklin’s victory on their home ice on Monday was rather decisive however and proves the old adage that “nothing is impossible.” It seems a shame that these two teams will not meet in the playoffs since Brooklin has been ranked in ‘D’ class and Stouffville in ‘C’. It seems that all young lads in Brooklin are literally raised on skates. For a village of this size they certainly ran produce fine hockey talent. Whether it be Bantam, Midget or Junior you can always look for Brooklin to be high on the group ladder. Returning to Stouffville, Derek Chadwick has a pretty well balanced team in a steady goaltender, good defence and one of the best front line trios in the class. coach Chadwick will depend on the threesome of Norm Hendricks, Wayne Redshaw and Murray Holden to carry the mail in the forthcoming playoffs. Should visiting clubs succeed in holding these players off the score sheet then the homesters chances will not be too rosy. The second and Third lines can hold their own but they lack the goal scoring ability of Norm Hendricks and linemates. As far a losing a game now and again. It doesn’t hurt a club — in fact in the majority of cases it will do a team more good than harm. The Midgets have only one more came to play in their regular schedule and then they move into the playoffs. Those are the games that really count. WINNING STRIDE
After four straight home losses the Clippers pulled up their socks here on Tuesday night and came up with their most pleasing performance of the season. Bob Bangay’s squad couldn’t have picked a bettor opportunity to hit a winning stride than against the league leading Georgetown Raiders. The game was packed with excitement and the fans enjoyed every minute of it. The contest was highlighted by the sensational goaltending work of ex-Clipper netminder Dusty Rhodes who turned in one of the finest exhibitions we have seen here this winter. Bill Bradbury, Chick Webster and Harold Hodgson rated stars on their nights performance. This undoubtedly is one of the best hockey groups the Clippers have ever played in with only a matter of two or three points separating the top and bottom clubs. The outcome of each contest is always in doubt right up until the final few minutes. With playoff time less than four weeks away we can only hope that Stouffville will continue their winning ways right through to the group championship. The Clippers have but five games left to play: at home against Milton and Brampton and away against Milton, Brampton and Georgetown. LEAFS JUMP INTO FIRST PLACE IN LIONS LEAGUE
Keith Sutherland’s Maple Leafs vaulted into first place in the Bantam section of the Lions League by beating Pittsburg 3-1 on Monday night. The Leafs and Hornets are now deadlocked on the top rung each with eight points. Grant Foreman, a newcomer to the group this season, has been one of the most consistent goal scorers in the league. On Monday he fired two tallies, one unassisted and the other on a pass from winger Keith McDowell. Bill Ratcliff, another topnotch first line forward with the Leafs, scored Toronto’s final goal with Ray Ward picking up an assist. Don Malloy fired the lone Pittsburg tally on a pass from Bob Lehman. It would now appear likely that the Leafs will go on to take the championship. With such performers as Bryan Wilkes in goal and forwards Bill Ratcliff, Grant Foreman, Wayne Pennanen, Roy Lewis, Ray Ward, Keith McDowell and Jimmy Gardiner they ice a powerful aggregation.

CLIPPERS DOWN ONE GAME
Oakville’s Meteors jumped into a one game lead in the best of five semi-final series on Tuesday night as they downed the Clippers 5-2 on Stouffville ice. The teams now move over to Oakville for two contests on Feb. 7h and 22nd with the fourth and fifth games back here on Feb 28th and March 1st. Oakville took a 2-1 lead lit the first period and outscored the homesters 3-1 in the final frame. Andy Closs and Chick Webster blinked the light for the Clippers. Jack Davidson, Herb Baker, Ray Patterson, Vic Webster and Blackie Graham were the Oakville marksmen. Stouffville held a territorial advantage throughout the game but time and time again, Meteor netminder, Dutch Holland blocked their goal labelled shots. Bill Bradbury had one of the best chances to even the count in the second frame while playing a man short when he grabbed off a loose puck and sailed in alone over the blueline. Holland kicked out his shot and although Don Forgie moved in for the rebound his drive missed the net.
At the other end of the rink, Clipper netminder Norm Stunden turned in a steady game. The majority of goals that evaded his grasp were on one and two man breaks with only one defenceman back.
In the first period, the game had all the appearances of developing into a rough
encounter but the clubs settled down in the final frame and gave the close to 400 fans plenty of fast clean hockey. There were seven penalties in the contest, four to Stouffville and three to Oakville.
Gord Lewis, the Clippers big centre star, suffered a nasty gash near his eye late in the first period. He required stitches to stop the bleeding.
With two minutes remaining in the game Coach Bob Bangay pulled netminder Norm Stunden from the Clipper cage in favor of an extra forward. Although the Clippers pressed the attack inside the Meteor blueline, they could not park the puck behind Holland in the Oakville net.
The Clippers used three lines and five defencemen for the game. Chick Webster centred a trio with Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman on the wings, while Gord Lewis worked between Jack Watson and Andy Closs. Don Forgie was pivot performer between Bill Bradbury and Archie Forfar. Don McIntosh, Geo. Stark, Ken Crawford, Les Clarke and Ronnie Bell formed the rearguard units. BANTAMS BEAT PT. PERRY TO WIN GROUP TITLE
In one of the most thrilling Minor League playoff games to be played here for many a season, Stouffville’s colourful Bantams staged a sensational five goal rally in the late stages of Saturday afternoon’s contest to beat Port Perry and capture the Group Championship. The final score was Stouffville 5, Port Perry 2.
Excitement ran high on Saturday as one of the best crowds of the playoffs was on hand for the rubber game. Hopes for Stouffville’s chances of defeating their Scugog rivals looked very poor in the early stages of the contest as Port Perry built up a 2-0 lead. Doug McMillan and Jack Chapman parked the puck behind Stouffville’s netminder Roger Beasley within the space of four minutes. The two Port goals began to look big as the game progressed and the homesters couldn’t break the goose egg. Glenn Pennanen playing one of his finest games of the entire season, gave his team their first tally of the contest in the dying minutes of the second period. He rounded the defence and picked the corner with a bullet shot.
In the third period Stouffville forced the attack into the Port Perry zone and before the visitors could stop their relentless surge of power, the homesters had rapped 4 more goals into the Port Perry net without a reply. The visitors, a tired squad, tried desperately to halt the Stouffville rally but they had worn themselves out earlier in the game. Glenn Pennanen tied the score at 10.09 of the final frame, his second goal of the contest.
At 13.10 Rick Wedseltoft, left winger on the first line, stepped out of the penalty box and picked up a loose puck at the centre ice line. He carried the disk into the Port Perry zone and flipped to centre star, Garry Taylor, who promptly deposited it in the visitors cage on a perfect play. At the seventeen minute mark, Larry Malloy took a pass from Rick Wedseltoft and backhanded the rubber into the top corner of the net. Malloy later salted the game away, with less than 3 minutes remaining, when his shot caromed off a skate and slid across the goal line. The sudden turn of events was a terrific letdown for Port Perry, who all but had the championship wrapped up in the early stages of the game. For Stouffville, excitement ran high. They had been the under dogs when the series opened and had had little success with Port Perry during the regular schedule. They will now meet the winner of Beeton and Schomberg.
Unlike the game on the previous night, Stouffville didn’t throw the contest away by running into costly penalties. In Friday’s tilt, six penalties were handed out to Stouffville while Port Perry served only four minutes in the cooler. In Saturdays game each team was handed four penalties. Glenn Pennanen and Larry Malloy potted the goals in Friday’s encounter. The Stouffville team were a weary lot, as they skated into their dressing room following the crucial contest. It was their third game in as many nights and some of the lads were beginning to feel a trifle weak in the knees. The entire team performed well especially in the final period when they held 90 percent of the play. Glenn Pennanen, Roger Stover, Garry Baston, Ron Stewart, Garry Taylor and Larry Malloy were among Stouffville’s best. Netminder Roger Beazley turned in a steady game although he didn’t have as many shots to handle as in the previous night’s contest. MIDGETS WIN AT HOME BUT LOSE SERIES AT UXBRIDGE
Stouffville’s Midgets passed out of the playoff hockey picture on Friday night of last week when they bowed to Uxbridge by a score of 6-2 after beating the same team 4-3 here on Wednesday. Uxbridge took the series nine goals to six. In the first game Coach Derek Chadwick pressed his first line threesome of Norm Hendricks, Wayne Redshaw and Murray Holden into almost continuous service and in the final frame they showed serious signs of weakening. Ted Suzuki spelled off these players at regular intervals and was also used on defence as a fourth forward. Norm Hendricks, Dean Evans and Wayne Redshaw blinked the light for the homesters in the first period while Todd fired the lone Uxbridge tally. In the second frame Barton scored for Uxbridge with Wayne Redshaw potting Stouffville’s lone goal. Gary Houck fired the only goal in the final frame to pull the visitors to within one tally of the Flyers. Stouffville had two excellent chances of extending their lead in the dying minutes of the game when Murray Holder and Wayne Redshaw broke in alone on the Uxbridge cage. Holden bounced the puck off post and goalie Bruce Foote made a fine stop off Redshaw In the return tilt back in Uxbridge the result was in doubt up until the last period when the northern crew salted the game away. Wayne Redshaw and Earl Thompson notched the two Stouffville goals. The natural ice was in poor condition for the crucial contest and hampered the efforts of both clubs. Polly Minton and Harvey Acton officiated. JUV. BEAT BOBCAYGEON, ENTER THIRD ROUND
Stouffville’s amazing Juvenile team are still rolling along at a terrific pace and literally snowing under all opposition. In three playoff game they have notched a total of 30 goals and have had only 4 scored against them. They are now ready to enter the fourth round of the Ontario playdowns. The opposition will be announced later this week.
On Thursday night of last week the homesters trounced their hosts by a one-sided 13-2 score. The Bobcaygeon management decided to default the return contest scheduled for the local arena on Saturday afternoon.
Right winger Don Haynes, who appears to be hitting his midseason scoring stride, paced the Stouffville attack on Thursday with four goals and one assist. Mike McStravick was also a potent marksman, firing three goals and picking up three assists. Bruce Redshaw and Ross Madill each scored two while Steve Wideman and Merlin Harmon notched singles. Goalie Bud Thomas turned in a fine effort in the Stouffville nets and although his teammates gave him good protection, he was called upon to make some good stops when the opposition managed to break through the local’s defences.
Steve Wideman started the ball rolling early in the first period and Mike McStravick added two more in the second frame. Don Haynes and Ross Madill each fired 2 and Bruce Redshaw notched a single tally. In the final twenty minutes of play, Don Haynes completed his four goal performance with McStravick, Redshaw and Harmon scoring the others. Bobcaygeon notched their tallies in the first and second periods.

Stouffville is fortunate to have a number of enthusiastic sportsmen who are always willing to assist both physically and financially in the operation of hockey teams here during the winter. If one is to give credit where credit is due, it is only right that Mr. Tom Wedseltoft should receive special mention for his work down at the arena. Tom is without a doubt one of Stouffville’s most ardent minor hockey supporters. Minor hockey to Tom is not a seasonable sport, but is the uppermost thought in his mind all the year round. If transportation is needed, lucky draw tickets to be sold, soft drinks to be purchased, peewee teams to be coached or a hundred and one other duties, you can always count on Tom Wedseltoft to give the matter 100 per cent of his attention. If he thinks the Bantam hockey team needs some ice time for a practice prior to a scheduled game he will dig down in his pocket and provide the necessary funds. After every playoff game it is a familiar sight to see him carry a full case of soft drinks down into the dressing room where it is quickly consumed by fifteen thirsty lads. If one of thee Peewee coaches cannot be down at the arena on a Monday night, just call on Tom Wedseltoft and he will gladly fill in wherever needed. If transportation is needed to take players to distant centres for a game, Tom Wedseltoft’s car is always available. He took a car load of Peewee players to Goderich last spring to take part in the Lions tournament there. No expense is too great if minor hockey is to be promoted here, as far as Mr. Wedseltoft is concerned. from day to day he “lives” hockey. It is a favourite subject for conversation on the street, in his home or at the arena. Other towns like Stouffville would give their eye teeth for a sport- promoter like Tom Wedseltoft but we’re happy to say Mr. Wedseltoft has no intentions of moving from his home on O’Brien Avenue. STOUFFVILLE, SCHOMBERG DEADLOCKED
After 2 complete games and periods of overtime, Stouffville and Schomberg Bantams remain deadlocked in the first round of the Ontario playdowns. Mr. Jack Christie, secretary of the OMHA, has ordered the two clubs to play a home and home total goals series in an effort to decide a winner. The first game is at Nobleton with the return contest here on Friday night of this week.
In the series opener at Schomberg on Wed. night of last week, Stouffville squeezed out a close 4-3 victory. In the second game played here on Friday, Schomberg edged the homesters 6-5 to leave the round deadlocked at nine goals apiece.
Glenn Pennanen and Larry Malloy shared the goalscoring spotlight in Friday’s thriller. Pennanen fired a three-goal hat trick while Malloy notched a pair. In the first encounter I Stouffville’s four goals were shared equally among Glenn Pennanen, Ron Stewart, Rick Wedseltoft and Larry Malloy. A good crowd was in attendance here on Friday to watch Stouffville and Schomberg battle through three periods of regulation time and 3 ten minute overtime sessions. Both teams were leg-weary when they skated off the ice, some of the players having performed for more than eighty minutes.
Glenn Pennanen opened the scoring early in the first period on the first Stouffville rush into the Schomberg zone. The visitors tied the count three minutes later when Schomberg’s fine defenceman Don Graham notched the equalizer. Peter Rawlings fired the lone goal for Schomberg in the 2nd frame.
The final period of regulation time saw Schomberg score two goals only a minute apart to give the visitors a 4-1 lead in the game and 7-5 advantage on the round. Gerald Sweeney blinked the light at the nine minute mark and Don Graham scored his second goal of the game midway through the frame. When Stouffville’s chances of pulling back on even terms looked dim, Glenn Pennanen, the homesters fast travelling right winger, grabbed a loose puck inside the Schomberg blueline and drove a 20- foot shot into the corner. Two minutes later the fleet-footed forward cut across in front of the Schomberg net and al the goalie Carl Emmerson sprawled across the goal mouth, Pennanen pushed the puck under his outstretched to put both clubs back on even terms. The overtime sessions packed more excitement than the best of games played here this season. There was no scoring in the first ten minutes but in the second period of extra time, rearguard Don Graham skated through the entire Stouffville team and blazed a bullet shot into the top corner of the cage. Not to be outdone, however, Larry Malloy came to the rescue of his mates and backhanded a high drive that caromed off the goaltenders glove into the twine. In the third and final overtime period, defenceman Don Graham carried the puck to the Stouffville goalmouth and as goalie Roger Beazley moved out to block the expected shot, the Schomberg rearguard flipped the disk to winger Gerald Sweeney who promptly tipped it over the line. When all seemed lost and the spectators were ready to file out of the arena, Stouffville, playing a man short carried the attack into the Schomberg zone and Larry Malloy, the hero of the hour, picked up a goalmouth pass and blinked the light. with a quick shot. Rick Wedseltoft was serving a boarding penalty at the time. At the whistle, with the score deadlocked on the round 9-9, the officials halted the game.
Those spectators present at the contest were amazed at the cool puck-stopping ability of Stouffville netminder Roger Beazley. As in the Port Perry series, the agile goaltender pulled off some miraculous saves, some on wide open chances. At times he even blocked shots from his own rebounds, when the Stouffville defence were slow in clearing. All the goals scored could not be blamed in any way on the local twine guardian. It is likely that Coach Lennox will stick with goalie Beazley if he continues to perform with such amazing steadiness.
Coach Bill Lennox was kept busy switching his lines around especially in the overtime periods, when his club showed signs of tiring. Roger Stover, Garry Baston, Ron Stewart , Glenn Pennanen, Rick Wedseltoft and Larry Malloy were used almost continuously. The only rest Stover was allowed was when he was penalized two minutes for tripping. Ron Stewart, Goodwood’s contribution to the team, turned in a tireless effort and although he didn’t score any goals, he set up a number of tallies.
If Stouffville can hold their opposition in check in the opening game of the new series, a record crowd is expected to attend the return contest on Friday night here.

CLIPPERS FORCE SEMI-FINAL INTO FIFTH AND FINAL GAME
The Stouffville Clippers have done what many believed was impossible. After losing the first two games to Oakville in a best of five series, Bob Bangay’s squad have staged a sensational comeback to square the series and force a fifth and final contest.
On Tuesday night, the largest crowd of the season witnessed a thrilling game that saw the Clippers, fighting with their back to the wall, chalk up a 6-3 victory over the hard-skating Meteors.
As the players skated off the ice at the final whistle, one of the wildest brawls to be seen here for years, broke out in the arena corridor as players and spectators alike mixed it up in a fist-swinging free-for-all. The donnybrook started as Ken “Red” Crawford and an unidentified Oakville player exchanged remarks at the exit. The two players immediately clashed and the fight was one. Coach Bob Bangay of the Clippers and referees Stan Bolger and Ivan Locke tried desperately to herd the two teams to their respective dressing room before anyone was seriously injuries. In the meantime, “Red” Crawford had pinned his man for the ten count and the men parted company. two or three fans were on the receiving end of a few jabs, but no serious damage was done.
Feeling between the two teams ran high throughout the game as a total of 66 minutes in penalties were handed out by the officials. Oakville’s players spent 44 minutes in the cooler including two 10-minute misconduct penalties. The Clippers had 11 penalties.
Howard Bullock was Stouffville’s only two-goal marksman. Ken Crawford, Jack Watson, Chick Webster and Don McIntosh notched singles. Ray Patterson fired two tallies for the Meteors and Jack Davidson scored the other.
The Clippers opened the scoring in the first period as ken Crawford took Gord Lewis’ goalmouth pass and fired it home at the three minute mark. Oakville evened the count at 19.10 with Ray Patterson blinking the light unassisted. In the second frame, the Clippers outscored their rivals 3-1. Chick Webster put Stouffville out in front on passes from Bill Bradbury and Don McIntosh. Oakville roared back to deadlock the score the score midway through the stanza. Defenceman Don McIntosh paved the way for the Clippers’ all-important victory when he trapped the puck on the Oakville blueline and raced in to beat goalie Dutch Holland with a sizzling slap shot to the bottom right hand corner. Howard Bullock, used sparingly in the early stages of the contest, stepped out of the box and fired what proved to be the winner.
In the final session Jack Watson tipped Chick Webster’s pass over the line for Stouffville’s fifth goal and Howard Bullock notched his second at the 11.56 mark. Oakville ended the scoring in the game with Ray Patterson beating goalie Norm Stunden with less than four minutes in the contest.
For Stouffville, the entire team looked good. Harold Hodgson and Ronnie bel were out of the lineup due to sickness but both are expected back for Thursday’s tilt. Ken Crawford, Chick Webster, Howard Bullock, Bill Bradbury and Dn McIntosh were outstanding performers for the Clippers. STIRLING BANTAMS HERE; LOCALS WON FIRST GAME 5-4
Stirling is now the only tumbling block in the path of Stouffville’s chances of reaching the Ontario bantam ‘C’ finals. The homesters took a big step on Monday as they edged Stirling 5-4 right in their own backyard. The return tilt will be here in Stouffville on Friday evening. it is expected that the winner of their goal-to-count series will meet Forest in the finals. port Dover and Seaforth are also in the running but according to reports, Forest, a town near Sarnia, boasts a formidable squad.
In Monday’s game Stouffville jumped into a 4-0 lead only to have Sterling stage a mid-game rally and deadlock the score. Glenn Pennanen fired the winner on a pass from “Gabby” Taylor at 15.18 of the third period.
A fine crowd of over 500 fans were in attendance at the game. the Stirling arena, an antiquated replica of Noah’s Ark, appeared to hamper Stouffville’s effort considerably and the Management are confident that their chances of winning on their home rink are very good.
The Executive and fathers of the Bantam team are very appreciative of the generous cash donations received from Messrs. E.A. Button and ken Laushway enabling the boys to enjoy a fine full course dinner at Trenton prior to their scheduled playoff game at Stirling. KING CITY PUT JUVENILES OUT OF THE RUNNING
The Stouffville Juvenile team came to the end of their playoff hockey trail on Saturday. They were ousted from the quarter-finals by King City in a two-game, goals to count series 19-6.
In the opening game, played in the Nobleton arena, the homesters were soundly trounced 11-1. The visitors took the return tilt here by a score of 8-5.
Stouffville, who outclassed their opposition prior to the King City series, showed their lack of group competition when they were stacked up against a stronger club. Man for man they would rate almost equal to their western rivals but as a unit, they lacked the team play displayed by the opposition. STOUFFVILLE SKATING CLUB MEMBER COMPETITIONS
Stouffville Skating Club held their Annual Club competitions of February 21st. This year the skaters were divided into groups according to their ability rather than their age. Twenty none skaters took part.
Dr. Sidney Soanes, president of the Toronto Judges Bureau of the Canadian Figure Skating Association, was the chief judge, being assisted by Miss Betty McDonald and Miss Anne McDonald. The results were as follows:

CLIPPERS OUST OAKVILLE FROM GROUP PLAYOFFS
After dropping the first two games top Oakville, in the semi-final round, the Stouffville Clippers staged a sensational three game rally to oust the Meteors and earn the right to enter the group finals against the Georgetown raiders. Victories of 6-5, 6-3 and 5-3 attracted the largest crowds of the season and have brought hockey interest here in Stouffville to a three year high.
More than a thousand spectators filed in the arena to see the fifth and deciding game. The visiting Oakville squad were given strong vocal support by hundreds of spectators. The large crowd expected to see the bang-up games and they weren’t disappointed. Clipper goalie, Norm Stunden was sensational in the Stouffville nets. The was exceptionally great when the homesters ran into a few minor penalties. On at least four occasions the agile puck stopper pulled of dazzling saves when Oakville swarmed around the Stouffville cage. At the other end of the rink, Oakville netminder, Dutch Holland played well between the pipes and had little chance of blacking the shots that evaded him.
The Clippers jumped into the lead in the first period and although Oakville trimmed the lead to a single tally they never pulled up on even terms. Ken Crawford started the ball rolling for Stouffville on a pass from Gord Lewis. Five minutes later, Gord Lewis blazed a bullet shot into the corner.
Ronnie bell notched the Clipper’s third tally in the second period and Chick Webster sewed the game up with a pair of goals in the final frame. The Oakville tallies came from the sticks of Ray Patterson, and Jack Davidson.
two Stouffville players were injured in the game. Ken Crawford suffered a six-stitch gash below his left eye and Ronnie Bell was hit on the nose and had to leave the contest for repairs. Both players returned in the last period.
Aside from goalie Norm Stunden, a number of palfreys stood out in the game. Gord Lewis turned a goof performance, scoring one goal and setting up another. Chick Webster, Bill Bradbury, Ken Crawford, Geo. Stark and Don McIntosh were the other top performers. At the final whistle, the Oakville players, showing fine sportsmanship, congratulated the Clippers and wished them well in their future games. DOUBLE SCORE ON GEORGETOWN
Stouffville Clippers romped to a decisive 10-5 win over Georgetown on Monday night in the first game of the best four-out-of-seven Intermediate ‘A’ group finals. The Clippers were without their first string netminder Norm Stunden who was injured during a practice session on Sunday. Stunden, while not in uniform was present at the game and is expected to be ready for action again by the end of the week. In his place the Clippers used Bruce Middleton of the Unionville Jr. Club via permission from the OHA Stouffville took a commanding lead in the game right from the start, leading six to nothing midway through the second period. Lewis, Crawford and Bradbury scored in that order in the opening frame with Watson, Clarke and Lehman adding three more in first nine minutes of the midsession. Lewis was a standout in setting up plays around the Georgetown net and scored two goals himself while assisting on four others.
Voyce tallied for Georgetown midway through the second period in a scramble around the Clipper net. Bud Lehman got this one back at 18.35 and Georgetown got their second of the night from the stick of Beamont at 19.07. The home team put on the pressure in the final twenty minutes and scored goal for goal with the Clippers but the visitors lead by this time was quite secure. Webster got two more for the locals and Hodgson scored number ten, a sizzling high shot that had goalie Rhodes rubbing his hand for some time. Dixon, Irons and Ingles were the Georgetown marksmen in the last period. The smaller ice surface tended to make for considerable play along the boards and scrambly hockey at times. There were twelve penalties in the game six for each team. BADMINTON NEWS

F.L. Button, Q.C.
There was a vacant seat in the Arena on Tuesday night. A seat that can never be filled. With the passing of Mr. F. L. Button, Q.C. Stouffville has lost its most prominent sports promoter. Whether it
was hockey, baseball, curling or bowling, Mr. Button was always one of the chief supporters. On hearing the news of Mr. Buttons passing early Monday evening, a member of the Clipper hockey team spoke for all Stouffville when he said “this town has lost its finest fan.” JR. BASKETBALL TEAM WINS GEORGIAN BAY CHAMPIONSHIP
Although basketball is rather a novel sport here in Stouffville, having been introduced since the erection of the new High School, the Junior Girls team has already won a championship. On March 6th, in a
game played in Orillia, Stouffville’s Junior Girls team edged Bracebridge 20-18 to capture the Georgian Bay Championship. Their victory over the Northern Ontario team earned them the right to enter
into competition for the All-Ontario Championship. members of the team are as follows: Wanda Olszevski, Marg Lintner, Pat Barry, pJan Elson, Shirley Fosdick, Laura-Mae Brubacker, Ann Dickinson, Muriel Byer, Dianne Kennedy, Judy Johnstone and Mary Cole, (Cap’t.). Miss Holt was the coach. TOP GOAL-SCORERS IN LIONS LEAGUE

In the Peewee department, Frank Taylor of the Red Wings is tops in his class with a total of 12 goals and one assist for 13 points. Roger Forsyth previously with Boston and now moved up into Bantam ranks has also scored 12 goals, ten while in Peewee and two in Bantam.

Joe Harold ranks number three for the Hornets with 1 goal and one assist. The following scoring summary is for the regular schedule only and does not include the playoff games that started on Monday night of this week. RHODES, STUMBLING BLOCK IN CLIPPER-GTOWN FINALS
Ex-Clipper netminder Jack “Dusty” Rhodes is proving to be a real stumbling block in the path of Stouffville’s offensive attack. Last week, the local squad dropped two games to Georgetown, 8-2 on Thursday night here and 4-3 on Saturday night at Georgetown. In Thursday night’s game it just wasn’t the Clippers contest although they battled the Raiders on even terms inn the first period, they
faded badly in the second frame and were trailing 6-1 going into the final period of play. The Raiders counted two more in the third period while Stouffville could score only one. Bud Lehman notched
both Clipper tallies. Ingles and Shapelle each fired a pair for the Raiders with Beaumont, Chard, Ferri and Varey notching singles. Stouffville appeared to be somewhat disorganized especially in the second period, and provided sub-netminder Bruce Middleton with little protection. On Saturday night Dusty Rhodes came up with his finest performance of the season to give his raiders a close decision. Gord Lewis, Andy Closs and Harold Hodgson were the marksmen for Stouffville. In spite of the loss Stouffville outshot their rivals on the night’s play. CLIPPERS JOLTED 5-2 BY GEORGETOWN, MUST WIN THREE IN A ROW
A hard-skating Georgetown team and a solid little netminder named Dusty Rhodes racked up a 5-2 victory over the Clippers on Tuesday night here to take a decisive three to one lead is a best four-out-of-seven game series. The teams move back to Georgetown on Friday. Should Stouffville extend the series with a victory in the 5th game, the two clubs will swing back here for a game on Tuesday night of next week. Raider goalie Dusty Rhodes was superb in the Georgetown nets on Tuesday as he has been in the other pair of victories chalked up by his club. Aside from single tallies fired from the sticks of Geo. Stark and Chick Webster, Dusty held the Clippers off the score sheet on all other scoring attempts. Don
McIntosh, dashing Stouffville rearguard, had the best opportunity to put the Clippers back in the game in the second period when he broke through alone with only Rhodes to beat, but the crew-cut puck stopper held his ground and the disk bounced harmlessly out of danger. Geo. Stark, by far the Clippers best on the night’s play, also had a good chance to blink the light midway through the final frame, but once again Rhodes came to the rescue and batted his shot aside. Early in the contest it appeared to be Stouffville’s game as the Clippers 1-0 lead. With Harold Hodgson sitting in the penalty box, Chick Webster broke up a Georgetown play and sifted in alone to fire a shot into the short side of the Raider net. Midway through the frame however, the visitors forged back and the period ended with the raiders holding a 2-1 edge. Georgetown added a single tally in the second session and outscored the Clippers 2-1 in the final frame. Stouffville seemed resigned to their fate in the last period and couldn’t get any dangerous scoring attacks organized. The Raiders beat them to the puck on nearly every play and checked the homesters off their feet when inside their own blueline. Geo. Stark fired Stouffville’s second and final goal at 9.28 of the last period with assists going to Gord Lewis and Bud Lehman. Dave Voyce, the Raiders big defenceman, notched a pair of goals for the visitors. Ron Dixon, Pete Bradkin and Ken Nash fired singles. There were 13 penalties in the game, six to Stouffville and seven to Georgetown. The Clippers were placed at a disadvantage in the third period, when two of their defencemen, Don McIntosh and Ronnie Bell were banished within minutes of each other. Hardly had the puck been dropped when Dave Voyce blinked the light from about ten feet out. From now on its do or die with every game “a must” for Stouffville. With Dusty Rhodes apparently back in form it would appear to be a tough assignment for the Clippers to salvage the next three games and the group honours. IMPORTANT PLAYOFF GAME OPEN IN PEEWEE LEAGUE
The round-robin playoffs commenced in the Stouffville Lions Peewee League on Monday night. Although the nearness of Easter examinations prevented a number of players from attending their respective games, there were a good number of boys out and all the contests resulted in very close scores. In the Peewee group, Boston blanked Black Hawks 3-0 on goals by Barry McLean, Campbell Storrey and Billy Payne. In the other game, the Red Wings squeezed out a close 2-1 win over the Rangers. Norm Tindall and Brian Madill were the Detroit marksmen. Garry Gall one of the best performers in the league, fired the lone tally for New York. The Bruins and Wings are now deadlocked at the top of the heap, each with two points. They are scheduled to meet in the first game next Monday evening to decide the first place position. In the Bantam department, Canadiens pulled a surprise win by upsetting the powerful Pittsburg team 3-1. Billy Hoover, Larry McMullen and Clifford Reynolds were the goal-getters for the winners. Paul Evans notched the lone goal games. There was a goodly number.
In the final contest of the night, the Leafs continued to set the same pace that held them near the top throughout the regular schedule. They downed Buffalo 4-2. Roy Lewis paced the Leaf attack with a pair of goals. Grant Foreman and Bill Ratcliff were the other marksmen. Ken Maye counted both Buffalo
tallies. On Monday, March 26th, the final playoff games will be held at the annual Young Canada Night. Tickets are now on sale and may be obtained from any of the players. The Alf Mole Memorial Trophy and the Jim Austin Trophy will be presented to the winning teams on this occasion.

“PEPPY JETS” LEAD LADIES LEAGUE
At the close of the regular schedule in the Stouffville Ladies Bowling League, the Peppy Jets edged the Alley Cats 53-51. The playoffs will start on Friday night. The other teams completed the schedule as follows: Bowlerettes 40, Game Dames 38, Ford Flyers 35, and Dodgers 23. The high single last week was chalked up by Ruth Wagg with 261. She also racked up the high triple with 632. The players performing with the Peppy Jets are Dorothy Bangay, Kelly Watson, Ella Nichols, Hilda Epworth, Eileen Wells and Vi Rennie. STUNDEN SENSATIONAL IN FIFTH GAME OF SERIES
A lone padded figure in the Stouffville nets saved the Clippers from annihilation in the fifth game of the group finals, played at Georgetown on Friday night. Norm Stunden was sensational in the first period. The Raiders took advantage of a “cold” Clipper club to pour shot after shot at Stunden, but with the exception of one drive the agile puck stopper miraculously kept his team in the game and the series. Stouffville skated into the game at a disadvantage having arrived at the rink more than thirty minutes behind schedule due to the icy condition of the roads. Georgetown forced the play in to the Clipper
end but Stunden set up a stone wall and guarded his cage with his finest performance of the season. The one tally that did evade him in the first twenty minutes slipped into the twine while his view was blocked by defenceman Don McIntosh, who attempted to block the shot. Stouffville were at a further disadvantage in the opening frame when Don McIntosh, Howard Bullock and Bud Lehman were banished with
penalties but by some manner or means they managed to hang on. The Clippers had 2 or 3 fine opportunities to blink the light in the first period although 75 percent of the play was in their own end. Chick Webster hit the post and Howard Bullock missed the net on a clean-cut break-away. Ken Crawford gave the Clippers the lead on a weird goal that slipped between goalie Rhodes’ pad and the post. Less than a minute later Georgetown evened the count with Bud Varey potting the tying goal while the Raiders were playing a man short. At the bell the teams were deadlocked 1-1. In the early stages of the second frame Georgetown continued to hold an edge in the play. don McIntosh was sent to the sin-bin for
cross-checking, but Norm Stunden’s wizardry in the Clipper cage kept the rampaging Raiders off the score sheet. Midway through the stanza, Gord Lewis centred the puck out to Bud Lehman who promptly fired it in to the twine. Later in the period, Jack Watson notched the nicest goal of the game, a hard shot on a pass from Andy Closs. In the final frame, Bill Bradbury and Andy Closs scored for the Clippers. Georgetown’s lone tally, Bradbury’s goal was a Texas Leaguer that looped over Rhodes head and rolled over the line. Closs’ goal caromed off a leg and slid over the crease. The Raiders’ second goal
came in the final minute of play with Gord Lewis sitting out a holding penalty.
The contest was delayed for ten minutes in the third period when Georgetown netminder Dusty Rhodes stopped a bullet shot from the stick of Harold Hodgson and had to go to the dressing room for repairs. He
returned and finished the game. Coach Bob Bangay reshuffled his lines for the important game in hopes
of finding a winning combination. Chick Webster centred Ken Crawford and Bill
Bradbury while Gord Lewis worked between Bud Lehman and Harold Hodgson. Howard Bullock was the pivot performer between Andy Closs and Jack Watson. Bert Baker came out of retirement to bolster the Stouffville defence. In spite of his lengthy playoff, he performed well and was especially effective in dumping the puck out of his own end zone when the Clippers were hard-pressed. Norm Stunden, Howard Bullock and Bill Bradbury were Stouffville’s best. CLIPPERS BEAT RAIDER TO EVEN SERIES
With all the cards in the deck stacked against them the Stouffville Clippers, down 3 games to one, have battled back to even the series and force a seventh and final contest. It will be played in Georgetown on Friday night. Captain Chick Webster paced the Stouffville attack with a pair of goals. His first came at 16.08 of the opening period on pass from wingers Ken Crawford and Bill Bradbury. His second tally was scored in the dying minutes of the final frame with Crawford picking up another assist. Both goals were fired from the short of the net through a four inch space between the post and goalie Rhodes’ pad. Bob Bangay’s newly formed trio of Webster, Crawford and Bradbury worked we and out-hustled their rivals on almost every play. The second and third string lines were also going all-out. The threesome of Gord Lewis, Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman collected a pair of goals as did the line of Howard Bullock, Andy
Closs and Jack Watson. Unlike the game at Georgetown on Friday night of last week when some of the goals were of the “fluke” variety every Clipper counter was a clean-cut effort. Jack Watson made it 2-0 at 3.23 of the second period with a beautiful tally on passes from Andy Closs and Howard Bullock. Watson broke into the clear and picked the top right hand corner with a bullet drive. At 15.40 Andy Closs completed a dazzling 3- way passing play and pushed the puck past Rhodes before he had time
to cover the open corner. Ronnie Bell carried the puck into the Georgetown end zone and flipped to Bullock, who in turn relayed the disk to the uncovered Closs. Ingles of the Raiders was serving a penalty at the time. With less than a minute remaining in the second frame, defenceman Geo. Stark trapped the puck inside the Georgetown blueline and moved in on Dusty Rhodes. Stark however, elected to pass the puck to Harold Hodgson who blasted the rubber into the twine from about eight feet out. In the last period Gord Lewis and Bud Lehman teamed up in a similar effort with the latter slipping the puck over the line after Rhodes had moved to cover Lewis. Chick Webster completed the scoring with quick shot from the corner of he crease. Georgetown defence man Dave Irons spoiled a shutout for Clippers netminder Norm Stunden midway through the final period. Stunden view was blocked on the play. Goalie Stunden turned in another fine effort in the Clipper cage especially in the first period when the homesters ran into a number of penalties. In the second and third frames however, the visitors were outplayed and even Raider goalie Jack Rhodes showed signs of becoming rather irrupted when Stouffville sifted through his defence time and time again. Rhodes could not be blamed in any way for Georgetown’s loss and as he had little chance of stopping the shots that evaded him. The return of Bert Baker appears to have strengthened Stouffville’s defence considerably. The big 220 pound rear guard seldom makes a mistake
inside his own blueline and he seem to have a steadying influence on the rest of his team mates. Don McIntosh turned in his finest performance of the when his team was short-handed. He used his slap
hot to good advantage in icing the puck and when shooting on the net. Les Clarke, Ronnie Bell and George Stark also played well, the latter two picking up assists on period goals Harold Hodgson was the only injury to come out of Tuesday’s contest the big right winger was cut on the mouth in the first minute of the third period and was forced out of action for the remainder of the game. It is expected he will be back in action for Fridays crucial tilt. STOUFFVILLE P.S. BEATS MARKHAM
Stouffville Public School gained revenge on Friday when the boys hockey team doubled score on Markham 6-3 in a game played in the Unionville arena Glenn Pennanen fired three goals, Rick Wedseltoft notched two and Warren Hendricks scored one. It was Markham’s first loss.

The Stouffville Clippers passed out of the playoff hockey picture on Friday tight at Georgetown. The one-sided 8-1 setback was a rather rude shock for the local fans who were confident that Stouffville
could pull the series out o the fire and enter further Ontario playdowns This was not the case however. There can be no arguments or excuses, the Clipper were well beaten and for the most part the
score really indicated the play. There might be a big question mark in the minds of the many hundreds of Stouffville supporter who witnessed the last two games of the series. On Tuesday night, of last
week, Stouffville whipped their rivals in a decisive manner 6-1 and then lost 8-1 in the seventh game. There must be some reason for such a reversal of form but it’s unlikely that even the players themselves have a solution. Perhaps it was asking too much to expect any team to come back and win three straight games? Perhaps they had an off night? Perhaps fourteen games in six weeks was too much hockey and the players were tired out? Certainly didn’t play up to par. From watching two Clipper victories in the fifth and sixth games, one could hardly believe that the same team could be beaten by seven goals. Although Stouffville had a one goal lead going into the second period, it was quite evident that nothing more than a miracle would allow them to retain the slim advantage for the remainder of the contest. They lacked speed and drive and with the exception of one or two player the entire team was off colour. There’s always two sides to every story. The loss at Georgetown on Friday night was the gloomy side but
throughout the season there have been many cheerful highlights. The Intermediate ‘A’ group has, this year, been one of the best leagues to perform here in many a season. The clippers have provided local
hockey fans plenty of thrills and excitement both during the regular schedule and in the playoffs and there will be plenty of room in the arena next November for a similar entry. There has been renewed interest in Intermediate hockey here this winter and attendance especially at playoff games was definitely on the upswing. We are sure Intermediate ‘A’ hockey is Stouffville hockey. BRUINS WIN LIONS TITLE
The Boston Bruins are the new Lions Peewee champions. The team coached by Don Lehman and later by Mr. George Beazley, took the honours by blanking the Rangers 7-1. Captain Barry McLean was
presented with the Alf Mole Memorial trophy by Mrs. Mole following the game. The Winners will be honoured at a banquet on Monday evening, April 9th. The Bruins jumped into the lead early in the contest and throughout the sixty minute game they had a big edge in the play. Ranger netminder Bobby Wagg had a busy time, as the defence failed to give him much protection. At the other end of the rink Bruin goalie Eric Mortimer chalked up a shutout and although not overworked, he handled all his shots well. Francis Haylow had a field day on the Boston forward line, firing four of his clubs eight tallies. Billy Payne
notched a pair and single goals were counted by Barry McLean and Ken Faulkner. The players on the winning lineup were — Barry McLean, Eric Mortimer , Bill Hammond, Francis Haylow, Sieta de Wolde, Ron Hall, Ian Fockler, Billy Payne, Ken Fockler, Brian Skov, Eric Paisley, Campbell Stewart, Ronald May, Paul Dowling, David Barber and Bill Lehman. In the other Peewee game, the Black Hawks and the Red Wings battled to a 3-3 draw. Murray Painter fired the three Chicago tallies. Frank Taylor, Bob Smith and Bryan Madill each notched singles for the Wings. Geo. Smith played a fine game in the nets for the Hawks. Chicago are coached by Mr. Ted Cadieux. Detroit are coached by Mr. Ed Dawson SELECT MOST VALUABLE PLAYER
Following the Young Canada Night at the arena on Monday evening, the eight peewee coaches selected their teams’ most valuable player. Each lad will be presented with an engraved cup at the Lions Club hockey banquet on Monday, April 9th. The selections were made on a basis of scoring ability, conduct on and off the ice, team play and cooperation. They are as follows: Boston, Barry McLean; Rangers, Bobby Wagg; Black Hawks, Murray Painter; Red Wings, Frank Taylor; Pittsburg, Wayne Hamilton; Buffalo, Ken May; Maple Leafs, Grant Foreman; Canadiens, Bill Hoover. The Trophies have been presented to the Peewee League by the Police Association.

by Jim Thomas A GOOD SEASON
On Thursday evening, in the arena, the lengthy Peewee hockey season came to a close. It’s been a goo winter for the young lads, one that has uncovered plenty of hidden hockey talent. The co-operation that has existed between the players, the coaches and the parents has been without equal. With this type of support the league will continue to prosper. Having been connected with Peewee hockey here in Stouffville for the past four seasons, I have received more satisfaction and enjoyment than any box seat at Maple Leaf Gardens could afford. The same may be said for the other men connected with the thriving organization. Week in and week out I have seen and learned many things from these young boys who range in year from 8 to 13. For example, on Thursday night when the Austin trophy was presented to the championship Pittsburg team. Wayne Hamilton was elected to receive the award on behalf of his club. Apparently taken by complete surprise with such honour, Wayne turned to one of his team mates and quietly said — “1 didn’t win this trophy, the whole team did.” Following important playoff games I have seen boys 10, 11 and 12 years old cry openly in their dressing rooms but you can bet that these same lads are the top performers in the group. Such is the enthusiasm of our Peewee setup. The term “It takes a good team to win but a better team to lose” was never more vividly portrayed than in our Peewee group. No matter how disappointed a club might be in losing their bid for the championship, these lads have learned to congratulate the winners with the old- fashioned handshake. Every year it’s the same story. At the beginning of the season little Johnny or Billy struggles up and down the ice in a valiant effort to
be some help to his club. At the end of the schedule these same lads may be the ones selected as their teams most valuable player. The improvement within the short period of less than four months is almost
unbelievable. On Monday night at the annual Lions Club Hockey Night some fifty peewee players will be in attendance. Nine boys will be presented with Valuable Player awards. These are the boys that will represent our town in Bantam, Midget, Juvenile and possibly Intermediate ranks in future years. These are Stouffville’s future stars.
In a press release received from Mr. Jack Christie, Secretary of the OMHA, Mr. Christie states in no uncertain terms, the leagues attitude to the National Hockey League’s trend toward rough play. It reads as follows: Picture if you can a “dogs tail” the size of all the hockey teams in Canada, wagging a little dog the size of six teams in the National Hockey League. There you have the tail that’s wagging the dog according to Jack Adams of Detroit Red Wings as recently quoted in a newspaper report. Then look at the reports of the recent game in Detroit between Toronto Maple Leafs and Mr. Adams’ Detroit Red Wings. Look at the pictures of players with blood streaming down their faces and reports of “out for the balance of the season” with broken bones and slashed faces and ask ourselves “is this the kind of leadership Mr. Adams would provide?” Do hockey fans across the country want the type of leadership that would cause fans (crackpots or otherwise) to make threatening phone calls to stars like Howe and Lindsay. And are players who must be involved in such incidents really star “hockey” players? Do we want amateur hockey officials like the men who con tribute their time and services to the operation of the CAHA, the OHA, the OMHA and the THL to submit to the type of leadership that causes its officials to say “You gotten hate your opponents” (Phil Watson, New York Rangers); or “… hockey is a game of meanness and bitterness where
there is no such thing as a friendly relationship” (Dick Irvin in Sports Illustrated). No, we don’t think the people of Canada, despite what they may sometimes say about the government of amateur hockey, will ever submit to any change that will enable the professional interests to take our children and teach them the ways of professional hockey as exemplified by games like those recently publicized. Going further, the Ontario Minor Hockey Association today joined with the Toronto Hockey League to go on record as protesting against the style of play prevalent in the National Hockey League. It is only natural to expect youngsters to try to emulate the actions of their hockey idols, but if the results depicted in reports of recent games in the NHL are any example, then we may be indeed thankful that only one or two out of about 20,000 youngsters playing hockey will ever make the National Hockey League. BADMINTON CLUBS HOLD “LEAGUE NIGHT”
Three local badminton clubs gathered together at the Stouffville District High School on Thursday, March 22nd, in a special “league night.” The guest clubs were from Agincourt and Uxbridge. Winners in the elimination tournament were Mrs. Shirley Mitchell of Stouffville and Mr. Lloyd Morley of Agincourt. In the other tourney, Ruth Spademan of Markham and Bill Bradbury of Uxbridge were the top performers. On Wednesday evening of last week, Stouffville played host to Aurora. The visitors won 11 of the 12 games played. In a previous meeting between the two clubs at Aurora Stouffville defeated their rivals 9 games to 3. The local organization will continue to meet regularly until the end of April after which they will disband until the fall. LION PEEWEE TEAM LOSE TO WINGHAM IN GODERICH TOURNEY
The Stouffville entry in the Goderich tournament showed a real battling spirit in spite of their 2 loss j to Wingham on Tuesday afternoon. The locals first line centred by Warren Hendricks with Wayne Hamilton and Roger Forsyth on the wings turned in star-studded performance and outplayed their opposition every time out Barry McLean and Larry spang formed the number one defensive twosome Marvin Betz guarded the nets both clubs were deadlocked at the end of the first period Wingham struck for the opening tally at the 4.35 mark but Stouffville forged back to even the count at 1135 Warren Hendricks blinked the light on a pass from linemate Roger Forsyth, Stouffville were held off the score sheet in the second period but
Wingham moved into the lead Danny MacDonald scored for the winners at 7.40 in the final frame. Wingham outscored the homesters 2 to l at 523 Doug Spry scored his second goal of the game for Wingham and Donnie Lee made it 4-1 for the winners at the ten minute mark. Stouffville completed the scoring for the game with a ute to go in the contest Roger Forsyth and Warren Hendricks teamed up on the tally with the speedy right winger tip ping the puck over the line there were only two penalties in the game both to Stouffville Larry Spang and Peter Stover served time in the penalty box for hooking and charging respectively. Coach Bill Lennox was very pleased with his teams performance all the young lads played well and any lack of size was made up by spirit. Warren Hendricks was one of the games top stars figuring in both Stouffville goals. Coach Lennox used him to kill off penalties and his amazing puck- juggling ability had the opposition baffled at times. The players who made up the goderich entry were
Marvin Betz, Larry Spang, Barry McLean, Wayne Hamilton, Warren Hendricks, Roger Forsyth, Gary Yates, Roger Mole, Peter Stover, Frank Taylor, Francis Haylow, Garry Gall , George Smith and Jim Malloy. More than 1300 players take part the annual weeklong tournament in the biggest little hockey tournament in the world the entire tourney is organized by the Goderich lions club FRANK TAYLOR TOP PEEWEE GOAL SCORERS
Frank forward with the Red Wings in the lions peewee league topped all other players in his group with a total of 14 goals and 2 assists for 16 points this figure includes both games during the regular schedule
and in the playoffs in the older peewee group bantam ken may topped his class with 16 points made up of 13 goals and 3 assists Mr. Lloyd turner kept an exact record of each individual players performance
throughout the season and this data has been very valuable in determining what boys should comprise the team that represents this town at Goderich other players who ranked high in the scoring
department in the two groups are as follows: Peewee — Barry McLean 12 points Murray Painter, 9; Garry Gall, 8; Kenny Aida, 6; Francis Haylow, 8; Billy Payne, 5; Ross Brown, 5; Garry Yates, 5; Bantam — Roger Forsyth, 15 pts.; Larry McMullen 13, Murray Ferguson 11, Warren Hendricks 9, Keith Stewart 8, Ron James s; Bill Ratcliff, s; Grant Foreman, 9; Bill Hoover, 9; Roy Lewis, 7; Bill Holden, 7; Robert Lehman, 9; Wayne Pennanen, 6; Joe Harold, 5; Donald Malloy, 5; Stan Barclay, 5; Peter Stover, 5; Jim Miller, 5; Joe Crowhurst, 5; Clifford Reynolds, 5 pts.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas PROBLEM SOLVED
Mr. Arthur Latcham, Stouffville’s benefactor at the local park has made contribution that perhaps many do not realize. In previous seasons, the left side of the outfield was turned into a miniature lake following the Spring thaw or a heavy rain. Consequently the players patrolling this area became very wary of chasing long fly balls for fear of bogging down in the duck pond. A couple of years ago, Mr. Latcham noted the situation and made up his mind to do something about it. He improvised a scheme whereby the water drains off the grounds into a small enclosure and then seeps away through a drain. Now the outfield dries out very rapidly and the players will no longer be forced to wade through the water up until the middle of June as was the case in former seasons. In this and so many other ways, Mr. Latcham has made the Stouffville Memorial Park a playground of which everyone can be justly proud. HOME TOWN
It is quite interesting so note during the past three or four year, how many of Stouffville’s senior players have made this town their “home.” When Stouffville moved into the Senior and Intermediate ranks six or seven years ago, resident players were at a premium. Now we have the cream of the hockey crop, who, in their prime performed in many parts of Canada and the United States. These same stars, many of whom are still active players here, are always willing to lend their support in the capacity of refereeing, coaching and other gratis duties. These men are not only actively interested in hockey but have brought renewed interest in softball back to Stouffville. A sport that was on the decline here. Some of these players who have made Stouffville their permanent residence are Bob and Nick Bangay, Geo. Stark, Polly Minton, Jack Watson, Hal Gibson, Howard Forgie and a number of others. Besides these men, Bob Hassard, a resident on Lloyd Avenue, during the summer months takes an active interest in the welfare of the Red Sox. Don’t think this town doesn’t recognize and appreciate the contributions made to both summer and winter sport here by these men. THE SAME STORY
The organizers of the Goderich Peewee Tournament must get rather discouraged each year when without fail a hassle develops to throw cold water on their enthusiastic efforts. Last spring it was Newmarket
who upset the apple cart by playing overage lads and although they were the champions in their respective group, they had to return the cup following an investigation into the birth certificates held by
some of the boys. This year, Aylmer, winners in the ‘B’ series withdrew from further competition because the Coach, Cliff Simpson claimed their opposition, Ted’s Pals of Toronto iced a “packed” club. I personally think that there should be a thorough “screening” of men who act as coaches on our minor hockey teams. Any man who would pull his peewee team off the ice because the opposition looked too strong
shouldn’t be handling a hockey club of any kind its high time these men learned that in “kids: hockey the ability to win isn’t the important thing. Its the opportunity for young boys to learn and play the game that really counts. How do you think the Aylmer players felt about leaving the ice without taking part in the contest? Even if they lost by ten goals, it wouldn’t be a disgrace. To pull a club off the ice is a disgrace however, a disgrace to the team’s management. What would our town think of Coach Bill Lennox if he took our Peewee entry 180 miles to Goderich and then refused to play them because the rival team was too strong? Its too ridiculous to even consider. Stouffville has taken part in the Goderich tourney for the past two seasons and on each occasion they have been beaten, last year by Port Perry and this year by Wingham. Perhaps they were disappointed in not winning. Every club likes to win but the experience gained from playing against opposing teams from different towns is worth more than all the championships in the world. The sooner the sponsors get rid of these “crackpot” coaches the better it will be for minor league hockey in general. Every year teams from all over Ontario, yes and even distant centres throughout the Dominion are entering in the Goderich tourney. Every year without fail large headlines are flashed across the sport pages of our daily papers which read: “Coach pulls team from Goderich tournament:” “Team to protest use of illegal players:” “Coach refuses to play against packed clubs.” These reports are exaggerated, you say? Perhaps in some cases they are, but the basic facts are only too true. The only solution to the situation as I see it, is for the OMHA to step in and investigate such incidents and when coaches and managers are found to be at fault, they should be suspended from
future participation in organizes minor hockey. Such practices have a bad influence, not only on the tournament and the players, but the entire OMHA setup. SKATERS TAKE FIGURE AND DANCE TESTS
On Saturday some fifty-six members of the Stouffville skating club took part in figure and dance tests. Dr. Sidney Soanes, President of the Toronto Judges Bureau of the C.F.S.A spoke well of the local
skaters. He said the dances were excellent with 75 percent of the entries passing their tests successfully. In the preliminary figure tests the following were successful: Nancy Robertson, Barbara Williams, Linda Sanders, Janet Button and Nadine Lennox. In the First Figure Tests: Elaine Forsyth and Claudia Brillinger. In the Preliminary Dance: Nancy Robertson, Carol Foord, Judy Bellman, Claudia Brillinger, Lynda Nolan, Karen Lewis, Jocelyn Button, Louise Dyck, Donna Lehman, Jean Winterstein, Lynda Mathewson, Elaine Forsyth, Linda Wagg and Cecelia Lehman. The Bronze Dance Test: Karen Lewis.
Mr. Charles Kiel, the popular professional skating instructor, will return next season. The local club has enjoyed a very successful year and are very pleased with the accomplishments of their skaters.

With the announcement this week by Coach Geo. Smith cf the Cardinal, that Stouffville will not operate a Junior team in a circuit with Leaside, Oshawa and Metropolitan Motors, plan are underway to place an
entry in the North York group. This should be good news for our local players, who found it difficult to catch a position in last year’s loop. No one win deny that such a group produced good baseball, too good for Stouffville. Coaches Smith and Cook found it necessary to strengthen the local club with Toronto imports and this move didn’t meet the approval of hometown supporters. Many felt that with the exception of the uniforms, it was a Toronto team and not a Stouffville club that was playing here. The local management was forced into using the imports since there weren’t enough prayers here to fill out a team equal to Oshawa or East Toronto. Even with the imports, Stouffville managed to scrape out only a couple of victories during the entire season. An opening is now available for a Stouffville Junior entry in the North York League. An organization meeting has been held and an invitation has been extended to Stouffville to enter a team in the circuit. Sounds like a good opportunity for plenty of baseball at a minimum expense.

SOCCER CLUB HERE IN 5-TEAM GROUP
An organization meeting of the local soccer league was held at Barrie on Saturday afternoon. Due to the enthusiasm the executive have been forced to split the teams into two separate groups. Although all entries aren’t definitely assured is expected that there will be five in each group. In Group A there will be teams from Aurora, Lindsay, Newmarket, Claremont and Stouffville. In Group B there will be clubs from Barrie (2) Midland, Collingwood and Camp Borden. The four top teams in each class will play off and the winners will meet for the championship. The Stouffville entry will play their home contests on Saturday night and hold practice sessions on Wednesday evenings. The league is expected to start around the middle of May. All applications must be forwarded to the league secretary, Bill Street, Barrie, by April 30th. To date, Stouffville has already held 2 practices and interest is on the increase. Last season Stouffville performed only in exhibition contests and attracted some of the largest crowds to the local park in years. BOWLING
Keyson Motors “Ringers” were presented with a fine trophy on Monday evening, emblematic of the men’s Town Bowling Championship.

by Jim Thomas GOOD SEASON AHEAD
Interest in soccer here, appears to be on the increase. With the formation of an organized five-team group, a good soccer season has been assured. Even last summer, although the local club played only exhibition games , the local attendance bettered any other single sport at the park. In addition, all the games were staged on Saturday nights, and since the time proved so popular, this night will be retained for Stouffville home games. Interest in soccer in this area has been promoted to a great extent by our new Canadian residents and although many were skeptical that the enthusiasm was just a “flash in the pan” this has not been the case. In this district at least, it would seem that enthusiasm has grown and we can see no reason for a decline in interest. To further assist the local organization, a Junior team is being formed and already some fifteen young lads have been out for practice in spite of the cold, wet weather. The players are coached by Mr. Wally Koster and Tony Beerstra, both players on the Senior squad. Stouffville has been placed in an excellent group including Aurora, Lindsay, and Markham. It was thought for time that Claremont might move out of the powerful Ontario County League but they apparently decided not to make a change. Markham, however, was quick to fill the vacancy and their entry will provide plenty of good rivalry here. They will open the season here on Sat., May 19th.

RED SOX TRIM ORILLIA TO OPEN SEASON
A 350 foot home run blast over the new fence by outfielder Hal Gibson with a man on base salted the game away for Stouffville in the seventh inning, and gave the Red Sox an 8-4 victory over the Orillia “Buckeyes.” Monday evenings game was the home debut of the local squad, the homesters having been rained out on two previous occasions. Southpaw twirler, Dave Hammersley, started on the mound for the Red Sox and went two and one-third innings. Righthander Lorne Schell took over in relief and finished the game. The Stouffville starter sent the visitors down in one, two, three order in the first inning and allowed one run on two hits in the second. In the third inning however, the ex-Junior lefthander lost his control and issued four walks, hit one batter and committed a double error on an infield roller to rack up three runs. With one out and two on base Lorne Schell entered the game. He forced Don Helietis to hit into a fielder’s choice and retired the last batter on strikes to end the inning. Lorne Schell, Stouffville’s mound-master turned in a fine performance in six and two- thirds innings. He gave up only three hits, walked four and struck out ten batters. For five successive innings, he retired the Orillia batsmen without a hit. The visitors three safeties were limited to singles. “Red” Genton, “Gander” Ross and Jim Boyd tapped out single-baggers off righthander Schell. Bud Lehman was one of Stouffville’s best, both in the field and at the plate. He was the only Red Sox player to connect for more than one hit and his defensive work at third base brought applause from the fans. In the batting department “Buddy” drove a single through the infield in the fifth inning, scoring Les Clarke and in the sixth inning he drove a rifle shot single into right field to drive runners Cliff Morris and Hal Gibson across the plate for what proved to be the winning runs. At third base, turned in “Al Rosen” performance. He picked two runners off on attempted steals from second, he cut off another run at the plate and grabbed a line drive in the webbing of his glove in a spectacular one-handed running catch. Lorne Schell, who arranged the battling lineup for the game, made no mistake by placing the local third sacker in the cleanup position. Although the Red Sox took the lead in the early innings, their one run advantage was short lived. Don Haynes worked Orillia’s mound-starter Harv Reading for a walk and Dave Hammersley singled putting runners on first and second. Les Clarke and Bud Lehman flied out but Ken Schell blasted a long double into deep centre held to score Haynes. Ted Cadieux bounced out pitcher to first to end the inning. Both teams counted single runs in the second. Orillia momentarily tied up the contest on a double by Ross and a single by Hipwell. Stouffville made it 2-1 in their half of the inning when Bob Hassard, Hal Gibson and Don Haynes were issued free passes and Dave Hammersley was safe on an error. Bob Hassard was thrown out on an attempted steal, but Hal Gibson romped home when Orillia’s third base man muffed Hammersley’s infield grounder. Southpaw Dave Hammersley appeared to lose his control in the top half of the third inning after clipping Orillia batter Jim Boyd with an inside pitch. The visitors counted three runs in their rally.
The Red Sox salted the contest away in the ninth inning Hal Gibson, who has a habit of clouting home run blasts at opportune times, teed off on a grooved pitch and slammed it up and over the new fence and out on the track. Harold Hodgson was on base at the time. Orillia attempted to pull the game out of the fire in their final turn at bat. Although they loaded up the sacks, the sixth batter for some unknown reason bunted to the mound and the runner was forced at the plate to end the game. Bud Lehman was Stouffville’s best batter clipping Orillia pitchers Harv Reading and Bob McDonald for two singles in four official trips to the plate. Hal Gibson had a home run, Ken Schell a double with single coming off the bats of Dave Hammersley, Les Clarke Graham Frisby and Cliff Morris. Orillia’s “Red” Genton who powered
two home runs in their Tri-County debut on may 21st, was held to one single in four times at bat. “Gander” Ross pounded out a double and single for the visitors best individual performance. Boyd and Hipwell connected for singles. LINDSAY, STO’VILLE BATTLE TO 1-1 DRAW
On Saturday night Stouffville and Lindsay battled to a 1-1 draw on the small Lindsay field. The local squad playing on a unfamiliar grounds were hampered by the smallness of the grounds but luckily managed to split the points. Stouffville’s hard driving centre forward, Pierre Grotel counted the visitors one and only tally. after twenty minutes of play. His bullet shot went through the top corner, giving the Lindsay goalkeeper no chance to stop it. At half time Lindsay applied terrific pressure and goaltender Walter Koster was kept busy between the posts. Finally Lindsay notched the equalizer on a close in drive. For the remainder of the contest it was anybody’s game with both Lindsay and Stouffville having numerous chances to score. MIDGETS DOWN L. WILCOX 14-0, TAYLOR HURLERS 1-HITTER
Lynn Taylor, speedball mound ace, with the Stouffville Midgets this season, hurled the homesters to a 14-0 victory over Lake Wilcox on Tuesday evening. The speedy righthander chalked up seventeen strike outs in six innings and allowed only one hit, that in the visitors final turn at bat. Stouffville committed two infield errors. The local entry broke into the scoring in the first inning when Geo. McKay and Gord Eckardt connected for triples. Walks to Ted Suzuki and Geo. McKay, errors on Bill White and John Little and a double by Lawrence Wideman added five more runs to the Stouffville total in the 2nd inning. In the fourth, catcher Gord Eckardt led off with a three- bagger. Pitcher Lynn Taylor and short stop Bob Corbett singled to push home the front runners and give Stouffville a 9-0 advantage. Five more runs crossed the plate in the big fifth inning to send the score into the double figures. Singles by Murray Holden, John Little and Gord Eckardt, doubles by Roger Beazley and Jim Spang and a walk to Lawrence Wideman all aided in chalking up the one-sided score. Wayne Storey went the distance on the mound for the visitors. LOCAL PUBLIC SCHOOL ‘A‘ TEAM WINS TITLE

Starter Joan Haynes hurled seven and one-third innings. She allowed 9 hits, walked one and registered no strikeouts. Marj Barber pitched one and two- thirds innings and retired the side in order.

eight singles. Agincourt pitcher, Joanne Woods gave up 9 hits and walked one. Relief hurler Marj Lawrence allowed 5 hits, walked 2 and struck out 1.

The Stouffville Red Sox, paced by shortstop Les Clarke, handed Port Perry their initial loss of the season here on Monday night beating the Scugog crew 7-5 under the lights. Clarke turned in an excellent performance, both in the field and at the plate. Batting 500, the local star gained the honour of officially clouting the first ball over the recently completed home run fence, a distance of 350 feet from home plate. He collected two of his teams seven runs. The circuit blast carried with it a prize of a new white shirt courtesy of Len Wilkes Clothes Shop. At his infield position, Clarke pulled off a spectacular catch in the eighth inning, robbing McKee, the Port Perry right fielder of a hit. Dave Hammersley worked six and one-third innings on the mound for the winners and gain-ed credit for the victory. The local lefthander allowed the visitors only seven hits, walked six and struck out eight. Lorne Schell took over in the seventh and finished the game. Dave McTaggart worked on the hill for Port Perry. He gave up 11 hits, walked 3 and struck out 5.

He held the visitors off the score sheet completely for 4 innings. The Red Sox broke into the lead in the first inning on hits by Don Haynes, Ken Schell and Bob Hassard. They added a single tally in the third stanza when Bud Lehman worked McTaggart for a walk and Ken
Schell brought him around with a safety. A walk to centrefielder Graham Frisby and a hit by Cliff Morris put the homesters out front 3-1. Les Clarke and Bob Hassard added a pair in the fifth and the same twosome completed the circuit in the seventh to salt the game away. Parker, Genn and McTaggart each collected a pair of hits for Port Perry. MIDGETS HAND RICHMOND HILL DOUBLE LOSE
Stouffville’s Midget team is rolling along at a torrid pace having racked up four straight victories over Aurora, Lake Wilcox and Richmond Hill.

both contests. Stouffville jumped into a 3-1 lead in the first inning on runs by Ted Suzuki, Wayne Redshaw and Harry Barber. The visitor’s rallied with two runs in the second to deadlock the contest. The
homesters moved out front in their half of the second inning when Roger Beazley completed the circuit but Richmond Hill forged back with a single run in the third to even the count. Stouffville’s big inning
came in the fourth when the homesters collected three hits and worked the pitcher for 3 walks to salt the game away. Ted Suzuki, Harry Barber, Gord Eckardt and John Little were the local run-scorers. On
Thursday evening of this week, the Midgets move over to Lake Wilcox for a return tilt and on Monday, June 25th they pay a visit to Aurora.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas ONE-HIT LOSS
Stouffville Midget righthander Lynn Taylor must be wondering what a pitcher must do to win a bail game. On Monday evening at Aurora the local speedballer twirled a sparkling one-hitter, but his team lost to
the Yonge Street squad 4-3. The reason of course was due to errors commuted by Stouffville. In seven innings, Taylor struck out six batters and walked none. In a previous game here against Lake Wilcox,
the mound star gave up only one hit and fanned 16 batters. Coaches Murray Stewart and Harold Hodgson have one of the bast pitching combinations to perform here in years. Harry Barber and
Lynn Taylor have entirely different styles but both are very effective. Barber depends mainly on “stuff”, a
combination of drops and curves that is rather confusing to the majority of batters in Midget class ball. Taylor, on the other hand, relies to a great extent on speed and his sizzling fastball has already taken its toll in a few games he has pitched this season. RED SOX RIGHTHANDER HURLS NO HITTER
A Stouffville pitcher has hurled the first no-hitter of the Tri-County League season. “Chuck” Parsons, formerly with Newmarket and now a member of the Red Sox mound staff, turned in the perfect game last
week as Stouffville blanked Port Perry 12-0 right on their own home diamond. In seven innings the Red Sox mound master struck out 9 hatters and walked three. In the entire game only one Port Perry
player managed to reach third base. The Red Sox salted the contest away with a seven hit attack in the fourth inning. Twelve players paraded to the plate and collected a total of eight runs. They counted one in the first, two in the third and one in the seventh. Every player in the Stouffville lineup connected for at least one hit. Parsons aided his own cause by pounding out two safeties in three official times at bat. Hal Gibson and Harold Hodgson each tapped out a pair. PUBLIC SCHOOL WINS TOURNAMENT HONOURS
The Stouffville Public School walked off with the tournament softball honours by beating Unionville in two straight games. They took the opener 22-6 at home and completed the route by winning 17-5 at
Unionville. Glenn Pennanen worked on the mound for the winners. He allowed 10 hits, walked 3 and struck out 3. He helped out his own cause by pounding out three singles and collecting thee of his teams seventeen tallies. Harland Mills, Stouffville’s third sacker, was the winners’ most potent batsman, clipping Unionville pitchers for a triple and two doubles. Bill Ratcliff had a singe and a double. Roy Gibson has two singles and a double. Lynn McMullen, two singles and two doubles. Galbraith three singles. Allan Boyd two singles and Jim Miller a pair of singles. The players who performed on the championship club were Glenn Pennanen, Roy Gibson, Lynn McMullen, Jim Spang, Harland Mills, Allan Boyd, Bill Ratcliff, Jim Miller, and Norm Galbraith. BEAT NEWMARKET 13-6. GIBSON CLOUTS HOME RUN
Hal Gibson the “Ozark Ike” of the Stouffville Red Sox lashed out his second home run of the season, a sizzling line drive smash over the left field fence. In Monday evening’s game with Newmarket, Stouffville defeated the County Towners 13-6. Gibson’s circuit clout came in the fifth inning with the Red Sox holding a slim 5-4 lead. Bud Lehman led off with a single and advanced to second base on an outfield error. Clean-up batter Ken Schell rapped a single through the infield but was tagged out when he attempted to stretch his hit for two bases. Hal Gibson then stepped to the plate and socked the ball out of the park. Lorne Schell went the nine inning distance on the mound for the Red Sox. He allowed 10 hits, struck out 10 and walked none. Lory Thoms started on the hill for Newmarket and worked six and two-thirds
innings. Grant Morton finished the game in relief. Thoms was clipped for 10 hits, walked two batters and fanned six. Morton allowed 2 hits, walked one and struck out one. Don Haynes completed the Stouffville battery. Wilf Elsby handled the decker for the visitors. It took righthander Lorne Schell one inning to hit his normal stride. The County Towners teed off for three singles and Schell clipped a pair to give Newmarket a 4-0 lead in the top of the first. The Red Sox rallied in their half of the inning and batted completely around the order. Don Haynes led off with a double and Les Clarke connected
for a single. Bud Lehman received a free ticket to load up the sacks. It appeared likely that Stouffville would leave the runners stranded as Ken Schell and Hal Gibson were strikeout victims but Lorne Schell
came through with a single and moved around to second when the centrefielder bobbled the ball. With Stouffville trailing 4-3 the Newmarket infield momentarily fell apart as Bob Hassard bounced an
infield grounder off the short stop’s glove to keep the rally alive. Graham Frisby came through with a key hit, a single scoring both L. Schell and Hassard. Derek Chadwick was thrown out short to first to retire the side. The Red Sox were held off the score sheet until the fifth when singles by Bud Lehman and Ken Schell and a home run by Hal Gibson lengthened Stouffville lead by three runs. The homesters sewed up the in the sixth inning with a six run attack. Les Clarke grounded out short to first but Bud Lehman singled, Ken Schell walked, Hal Gibson was safe on an error, Lorne Schell singled, Bob Hassard doubled,
Graham Frisby singled and don Haynes was safe on an error. The collection of hits, walks and errors boosted the Stouffville run total to 13. Newmarket counted a pair of runs in the ninth inning. Hits by Mabbett, Waller and Thoms accounted for the tallies. Coach Bob Hassard injected some of his team’s formidable bench strength into the lineup in the late innings. Harold Hodgson the late innings took over from Ken Schell at first, Ken McFarland moved to left field to replace Hal Gibson and Cliff Morris replaced Bob Hassard on second base. Bob Hassard regained his batting eye to pace the Stouffville hitting attack with a pair of doubles. Graham Frisby, Lorne Schell and Bud Lehman each collected singles. Other safeties came from the bats of Don Haynes, Les Clarke, Ken Schell and Hal Gibson. Derek Chadwick played his first game and although he didn’t figure in the hitting department, he covered a lot of ground in right field. Newmarket committed no less than nine errors. Stouffville made only one misplay. OVER 259 STUDENTS COMPETE IN PUBLIC SCHOOL FIELD DAY

The Stouffville-Peach’s girl team dropped a one-sided 22-9 contest to Oshawa on Wednesday night of last week. The local squad playing two games in as many nights got off to a bad start and the Motor City crew had the contest in the bag in the early innings. Marj Barber started on the mound for the homesters with Audrey Murison hurled in relief. Stouffville showed signs of staging a rally late in the game but the
lead was too great to overcome. It was the first meeting between the two teams. The local team lacked j he necessary strength at the bat and on three occasions went down with the bases loaded. On Tuesday evening of next week the homesters journey to Brooklin and then again play host to Oshawa on Wed. July 4th. RIVAL SOCCER TEAMS BATTLE TO 3-3 DRAW
The two main rivals in the local soccer group, Stouffville and Markham, tangled in thrilling match here on Saturday night. The contest ended in a 3-3 draw. Stouffville were without two of their best players and for the first 35 minutes of the game the homesters performed with a man short. Markham’s star was Chris Trophy who scored all three of his teams goals. He has now collected a total of 14 for the season Brophy put the visitors one ahead after 25 minutes of play when he broke through the Stouffville defence and
pulled the goaltender out of position. Markham went out front 2-0 near the half time, scoring with a low shot out of a pile of players. Goalie Walter Koster managed to get his hands on the ball but it
slipped through. Stouffville started to roll after half time. Frank Hulshof and Tony Boerstra switched positions and the move paid off. At the nine minute mark, Frank Hulshof booted a 15 yard goal on a free kick and in a goal mouth scramble a Markham defenceman played the ball with his hands allowing Stouffville another penalty kick. Frank Hulshof scored with 15 minutes left in the game. Markham didn’t give up however, and for the third time the visitors moved out front with Chris Brophy booting the hall between the posts. Stouffville staged a last-ditch rally and Frank Hulshof’s shot was deflected by a Markham player into his own goal to deadlock the score at 3-3.

RED SOX UPSET ORILLIA 7-1
The highly-rated Orillia Buckeyes were given a raw reception by the Stouffville Red Sox here on Monday evening as the homesters clipped two visiting pitchers for 11 hits and racked up an impressive 7-1 victory over the favoured Couchiching crew. The victory moved Stouffville into a second place tie with Orillia and two points back of Sunderland, current league leaders. The Red Sox have two games in hand, however, on their first place rivals. The seasons largest crowd turned out to witness the contest on Monday. The spectators weren’t disappointed. The two teams packed plenty of thrills into the nine inning game including superb pitching, solid hitting and some fine fielding plays. The fans showed their approval by giving the homesters a hearty round of applause on numerous occasions throughout the contest.
Lorne “Porky” Schell, Stouffville’s ace curve ball artist, was in fine form for the important game. In the nine innings he fanned 13 Orillia batters and allowed 9 hits. He issued only one walk in the entire game and retired the side in order in the first and sixth innings. Two of Schell’s strikeouts were registered against Orillia’s ace short- stop and clean-up slugger Gord Caldwell. The American import connected only one hit, a single in the eighth inning. Although the Red Sox out-hit the visitors by only 11-9, Stouffville’s safeties were line smashes that cut through the infield or caromed off the outfield home run barrier. Three of the homesters eleven hits were two-base blows. The hardest clout came from the bat of pitcher Lorne Schell. The ball sailed into one of the trees outside the park and bounced back onto the playing field. The runner was held up at second base. Bud Lehman pounded out a pair of doubles. Single base blows came from the bats of Cliff Morris (2), Lorne Schell, Les Clarke, Hal Gibson, Ken Schell, Bob Hassard and Bud Lehman. The management were especially pleased with the fine plate performance of right fielder Cliff Morris who had a perfect night against the potent opposition. In four times at bat, Morris worked Orillia’s starting hurler for a pair of walks then lashed out two singles from the offerings of relief mounds man Ron Johnson. Another rookie performer enjoying his first full season as a regular on the Red Sox roster, is Don Haynes. The Stouffville receiver boasts a fine batting average and although he failed to connect for a hit in Monday’s game, he managed to get on base three times via a walk, an error and a wild pitch that hit him. Bob McDonald started on the hill for the Buckeyes and worked three and two-thirds innings. He allowed 5 hits, walked 4 and struck out 3. Johnson over and finished the game. He was clipped for 6 hits, walked 1 and struck out 1. Bud Lehman paced the Stouffville batting attack with two doubles and a single. Lorne Schell had a single and a double and Cliff Morris whacked out two singles. “Gander” Ross clouted a pair of doubles for Orillia’s best effort. Pitcher Bob McDonald connected for two single base blows. Stouffville’s best defensive play of the night came in the second
inning. Bob McDonald singled with one out and John Hutton, the next batter, was a strike-out victim. “Gander” Ross slammed a well-hit double into deep centerfield that was nabbed by Graham Frisby. He
fired the ball to short stop Les Clarke who relayed the throw to catcher Don Haynes catching McDonald cold at the plate. There were only two errors in the game, one to each team. MARKHAM OUSTS LOCAL SOCCER TEAM
The soccer season has come to a sudden completion for the Stouffville club. On Saturday evening in a do-or-die contest at Markham, the local squad was handed a 4-1 setback by the Markhamites thus eliminating their chances of catching a playoff position. On the night’s play Markham were the worthy winners. They turned in a fine team performance and led 2-1 at the halfway mark in the contest. They added a pair of goals in the second half. Stouffville’s only tally came from the boot of Tony Boerstra on a pass from Al Hathaway. Stouffville’s defence was short-handed for the all important contest and were little match for the fast-stepping Markham forwards who forced much of the play into the Stouffville end- zone.
A soccer tournament will be held some time during the month of August if someone will supply a suitable trophy for competition. Anyone interested should contact Mr. Walter Koster, Stouffville.

RED SOX WHIP ORILLIA 8-2 TO TIE SERIES
The Stouffville Red Sox moved back into semifinal playoff contention on Thursday night of last week when they pounded Orillia’s lefty Bob McDonald for 12 hits and racked up a one-sided 8-2 defeat on the
Couchiching crew. The Buckeyes took the opener 7-5 on their home diamond. Lorne Schell was the mound master for the winners allowing only six hits in the nine inning tilt. He walked 1 and struck out 10. McDonald gave up 12 hits, walked 1 and fanned 10. Clean-up slugger Ken Schell paced the Red Sox’ plate attack with two singles and a double. Brother Lorne Schell aided his own cause by clipping the Orillia lefthander for three singles. Don Haynes, one of the best young prospects to come into the Stouffville camp for a number of seasons, slammed a home run out of the park in the fifth inning and singled in the seventh. Of the six hits allowed by the Red Sox curve ball artist, two went to Gord Caldwell,
one in the second and one in the 7th. John Hutton, who had gone hitless throughout the contest smashed a 300 ft. home run over the fence with one mate aboard to account for Orillia’s two tallies. Ken Hipwell, “Gander” Ross and Dean Heliotis connected for Orillia’s other safeties. Lorne Schell drove in Hal Gibson with the first Stouffville run in the opening inning. They sewed up the game with a five- run outburst in the fifth. Singles by Les Clarke, Hal Gibson, Lorne Schell, a double by Ken Schell and a circuit clout by Don Haynes wrapped up the contest. Stouffville left seven men on base, Orillia stranded 5. Each club committed one error. RED SOX OUST ORILLIA
It’s Stouffville and Sunderland in the group finals for the tri-County League championship. The Red Sox have done what many local baseball experts believed was impossible. After dropping the first game to Orillia 7-5 the homesters came back to win two-in-a-row by scores of 8-2 and 4-2 . Monday night’s game was the best baseball contest we’ve seen here this season. In spite of the rather chilly temperatures a large crowd was on hand for the “rubber game”. Every fan in the stands remained until the end of the ninth inning to see the local squad oust the heavily-favoured Couchiching crew. In the managerial department, Coach Bob Hassard, Manager Ted Cadieux and Asst. Mgr. Les Clarke employed all the craftiness of big league ball in an effort to salvage the all-important third game. Bunts, by usually long-ball sluggers, switching pitchers with a 4-2 lead, 1 intentional walks to home-run hitters and other heads up plays paid off for the Stouffville squad. Two of the best pitchers in the tri-County circuit, Chuck Parsons and Lorne Schell saw mound duty for the Red Sox on Monday night. The ex-Newmarket started on the hill for the homesters and worked seven innings. He allowed 8 hits, walked 4 and struck out 6. Holding a 4-2 lead going into the eighth inning, the Stouffville management decided to switch pitchers and lLoren Schell entered the game. In two innings he gave up no hits, walked none and fanned four Orillia batters. Both Stouffville pitchers turned in a superb performance. Parsons held Orillia off the score sheet for six
successive innings although he ran into some trouble in the seventh when he was clipped for a single and a triple and issued a pair of walks. In the third and fourth innings, Orillia loaded up the sacks but Parsons worked his way out of both situations and held the rivals off the score sheet. In the third, with the sacks packed, Parsons fanned clean-up slugger “Gander” Ross and in the fourth with three on base, he sent Cooper down on strikes. Parson used his drop curve to excellent advantage and made even Orillia’s most potent batters appear a trifle foolish at times. Relief twirler lLoren Schell was equally good. In two innings he faced 6 batters and sent four down on strikes. In Orillia’s final turn at the plate in the top of the ninth, Jerry Hinds and Dean Heliotis, were strike-out victims and Ron Johnston lined out to Les. Clarke to end the game. GIRLS LOSE TO BRIGHT IN O.A.S.A. OPENING GAME
The Stouffville-Peach’s girls team dropped a 6-3 decision to Bright in the first game of the O.A.S.A. Int “C” playoffs. The contest was played under the lights at Woodstock. The return tilt is back here in
Stouffville on Wednesday tonight. The local squad looked good even in defeat. Joan Haynes on the mound turned in her best pitching performance of the season. She was given good support by Mary Cole behind the plate and the remaining members of the club. A good crowd was in attendance. Stouffville pulled off two sparkling double plays with second sacker Marg Smith and short stop Gwenn Kennedy starting off the twin killings. Left-fielder Barb Rennie saved some possible runs with a spectacular shoestring catch. She was also one of the local squad’s top plate performers. The lineup for the game was as follows: p, Joan Haynes; c, Mary Cole; 1st, Edna Stickley; 2nd, Marg Smith; 3rd, Doreen Jarvis; s.s., Gwenn Kennedy; 1.f., Barb Rennie; c.f., Betty Brooks; r.f., Joyce Roberts.

RED SOX TAKE SUNDERLAND 5-4 IN 10 INNINGS
Stouffville Red Sox took a ore game lead in the Tri-County League finals by edging Sunderland 54 in extra innings on Monday night. The best three of five series now shifts back to the Tiger town for games on Thursday evening and Monday afternoon. I Righthander lLoren Schell hurled one of the longest games in his colourful mound career. For ten complete innings the local curve ball artist faced Sunderland’s best and held the potent batsmen to six hits. He didn’t walk a single batter and struck out 10. In addition to this magnificent pitching performance, Schell whacked out a single, walked three times and scored one of Stouffville’s 5 tallies. Geo. Holborne worked nine and two-thirds innings on the hill for the visitors. He was clipped for 11 hits, walked 5 and fanned 9 Red Sox batters. Paul Farrell took over in the tenth inning. A wild pitch caught Les Clarke on the back and with the bases loaded. The winning run was unceremoniously pushed across the plate to end the contest. Although credited with the loss, Holborne hurled good ball, especially in the early innings. He tired later in the contest and needed
relief. There’s no denying, Sunderland have a potent club, fielding the best players from both Sutton and Sunderland. The Tigers possess terrific plate power. This was evident in the two ringing home runs clouted by pitcher Geo. Holborne in the second and Jim Beeton in the 10th. The addition this year of lead- off batter Skip Taylor and receiver Keith Dunne pushed them into the first place position at the end of the regular schedule. Their chances, however, rest to a great extent on the right arm of Geo. Holborne, who, when “hot” can be one of the toughest pitchers in the Tri-County circuit. For a time it appeared likely that Sunderland would be the victors by virtue of two solid home run clouts over the out field fence. Although the Red Sox jumped into a 1-0 lead in the first inning, the Tigers tied it up in the second, when hard hitting slugger Geo. Holborne teed off on a 3 and 0 pitch and slammed it out of the park. A single and a two-base error on John Learoyd’s hit and a double by John Hogg put Sunderland out front 2-1 in the fourth. Stouffville roared back with Les Clarke and Bud Lehman cracking hits out of the infield in the seventh to once again deadlock the score at 2-2. In the top of the tenth lead-off batter Skip Taylor singled and completed the circuit when Jim Beeton powered a round-tripper out on the track to clear the sacks and give the Tigers a 4-2 advantage. A game’s never won until the final man is out. This famous quotation proved only too true on Monday night. Trailing by two runs in the bottom of the 10th inning, Sunderland appeared to have the contest in the bag. Geo. Holborne, however, had run out of steam. He walked Lorne Schell and Bob Hassard to put runners on first and second base. Don Haynes rifled a grass-cutter to short and beat it out as the infielder momentarily bobbled the ball. With the sacks packed pinch-hitter Cliff Morris pounded a single over second base to push Schell and Hassard across with the tying tallies. With defeat staring them in the face, Sunderland reluctantly pulled Holborne from the mound and sent relief twirler Paul Farrell into the breach. Farrell went from the frying pan into the fire when he walked Ted Cadieux to once again load up the bases. With nobody out, Farrell clipped lead-off batter Les Clarke with a wild pitch and the game was over. The playoff opener coupled, with a warm evening, attracted one of the largest baseball crowds on record into the park for a scheduled contest. The fans weren’t disappointed as both teams battled through ten hard- fought innings. Spectators from Sunderland were well represented in the stands and they gave their club good vocal support. Bud Lehman regained his potent batting eye and clubbed out three singles and a double for the homesters best plate performance. Hal Gibson connected for a pair of singles and Ken Schell tagged Holborne
for a double. Other hits came from the bats of Lorne Schell, Bob Hassard, Les Clarke, Cliff Morris and Don Haynes. Jim Beeton was Sunderland’s best batter, hitting a single and a home run. geo. Holborne hammered a home run and John Hogg clouted a double. Singles were hit by Skip Taylor and John Learoyd. BRIGHT EDGES GIRLS 3-2 IN NINTH INNING RALLY
In one of the tightest and best-played girls softball games to be run off here in many a season, the Stouffville-Peach’s club were ousted from the Intermediate “C” Provincial playoffs on Wednesday evening of last week. A two run rally by Bright in the ninth inning provided the visitors with their slim 3-2 edge. The winners will now move on into further PWSU competition. Bright captured the opener in their home
park at Woodstock by a 6-3 count. Audrey Murison worked on the mound for the local squad with Mary Cole completing the battery. Lillian Brown went the distance on the hill for Bright. The Stouffville pitcher, Cedar Groves donation to the team, allowed 8 hits, walked 2 and struck out 1 in the nine inning contest. The visiting hurler gave up 2 hits, walked 2 and fanned six batters. Although a trifle weak at the plate, the homesters put on a thrilling defensive performance, committing only one error and completing 26 putout plays. Bright fielders hobbled the ball on three occasions. Second-baseman Marg Smith was a tower of strength on the infield, handing eight “outs” and turning a number of sure hits into outline putout plays. The remaining fielders looked equally strong although they weren’t worked quite so hard. In the bottom of the final inning, lead-off batter Doreen Jarvis was safe on an error and represented the tying run. The next three batters however went down in order. Barb Rennie hit into a fielder’s choice, Betty Brooks popped out to short centerfield and pitcher Audrey Murison lined out to second base to end the inning and the game. The local lineup was as follows; p, A. Murison; c, M. Cole; 1st, E. Stickley, 2nd, M Smith; 3rd, D. Jarvis; s.s., G. Kennedy; l.f., Barb Rennie; c.f., B. Brooks; r.f., E. Sproxton.

The Stouffville-Peach’s girls softball team handed Oshawa their initial setback of the season on Tuesday evening when they defeated them 10-1. The game was played at Whitby.

order on five successive occasions. Aside from the one run that Oshawa counted, only on other player reached first base. The local squad scored a pair in the first inning and added 4 in the third to wrap up the game. Single runs in the fourth and fifth innings and two in the sixth ran the score into the double figures.

by Jim Thomas OUR HOCKEY OUTLOOK
What’s Stouffville’s hockey outlook for this winter? Its rather early in the season to make any rash predictions concerning group winners, Ontario championships, etc., but one can safely say that there will be plenty of hockey activity here during the next four or five months. Stouffville’s top club this winter will be Intermediate “C”. The entry will play in a local group and will use local players. The schedule will commence later this month. Moving down the ladder, we find a midget team, possibly the strongest of our minor league clubs. It is coached by Mr. Bill Lennox. Next in line is the Bantam entry, which although somewhat weaker than last season’s squad, is expected to hold its own in the respective group. The last of the lineup is of course the Peewee teams, eight in number ,which commenced their activities on Monday evening. Although for a time there was some talk of a Juvenile entry, this plan has apparently been dropped, so its Intermediate, Midget, Bantam and Peewee hockey for our town this winter. This means that more than 170 boys will be playing hockey in the arena this season. MEN’S BOWLING LEAGUE

takes up his new position. Jim Miller is carrying or where he left off last season in the goal scoring department. On Monday evening he blinked the light twice as the Buffalo team trounced the Canadiens 5-3. Clifford Reynolds, Joe Norton and Jim Wagg were the other goal scorers. The Montreal tallies were evenly decided among three players, Charles Blacklock, Gary Gall and Wayne Oldham.

by Jim Thomas NEW CLOCK
The Stouffville Arena will have a new stop clock this winter. It was decided to purchase this necessary piece of equipment a meeting of the Arena Board last week. An accurate timepiece in the rink has been
sorely lacking for many years. The “sportsmen” used in past seasons has been the centre of much criticism, especially by visiting clubs who were not accustomed to its operation. The clock, which operated in reverse, was built for form type of sport, but certainly not for hockey. At one particular game, the Coach threatened to pull his club from the ice, when he became baffled by the “back up” clock. Penalized players were at a loss to figure out the workings of the timepiece and even the officials would throw up their hands in despair. Such confusion will soon end however when the new clock is installed. Not will the exact time be plainly visible to the players and fans, but the score and period will he located in full view of all. CLIPPERS FOR 1956-57
We were one of the two hundred odd fans who attended initial game of the new O.H.A. Intermediate “C” group at Richmond Hill on Friday evening. Although it’s difficult to predict an Ontario Championship for Stouffville so early in the season, we think the Clippers may have a better than average chance to win their group. With any club, 75 per cent of the load rests on the shoulders of the goaltender. From a first glimpse it would appear that Stouffville has a topnotch puck stopping artist in ex-Lyndhurst netminder, Jack Willis. He showed off his skills to good advantage or Friday night when he blocked the Yonge Streeters on at a half dozen clean-cut breakaways. Sub-netminders George Wilkins will always be ready to fill the breach when needed. Moving out it to the defence the situations not quite so bright. Alex Wilkins and Les Clarke are experienced and Grant Wagg, an ex-junior from the Unionville Jets will likely hold this position. The club could however, use another good rear guard instead of swamping the strength from the forward line as was the case on Friday. Hoard Forgie dropped back on occasions but his ability is needed up front. In the early stages of the contest, the locals’ defence was caught flat-footed which might prove disastrous in a playoff contest. It wasn’t the first string trio of Harold Hodgson, Bud Lehman and Don Weir that showed the way but the surprising performance of some of the teams so-called second-raters, Doug Forfar, Frank Hendy, Howard Forgie, Bruce McDowell, oJw Lewis, Jake Harmon, and other worked hard all night and showed plenty of promise. If Coach McIntosh can acquire the services of Jack Watson and Gord Lewis, his front lines could be strengthened considerably. With an excellent goaltender, good forward lines and a mediocre defence, the new 1956-57 version of the Stouffville Clippers will take to the ice on Thursday night for their home debut. After this game. the fans may judge for themselves whether another group championship will come to Stouffville this season. RANGERS BLANK BRUIN IN LIONS PEEWEE LEAGUE
In spite of some outstanding goal tending work by Boston netminder Laurie Buckland, the Rangers blanked the Bruins 2-0 in the opening game of the Lions Peewee League on Monday evening. The New Yorkers had goalie Buckland turning handsprings between the posts. It was one of the best efforts turned in by a Peewee puck- stopper this season. At the other end of the rink, Ranger goalie, Billy Brown also looked good as he held the opposition off the score sheet. Francis Haylow, playing his first game in a Boston uniform, was the main threat but on each scoring attempt he was out lucked. The win for the Rangers moved them to within one point of the second place Red Wings. These two clubs will meet on Monday in an important game. Bruins are yet without a victory. IIn other games, the Black Hawks and Red Wings battled to a 3-3 tie, The Canadiens downed the Leafs 5-3 and Buffalo and Pittsburg played to a 3-3 tie. A goal by Brian Madill kept the Chicago winning streak at three wins and one tie as he potted the final goal of the game to give his team a split in the points. The Hawks broke into 1-1lead on Billy Payne’s tally, but sharpshooter Ross Brown tied it up. Billy Payne put his club one goal ahead but once again, the Wings rallied with Jim Mehaffey blinking the light to even the score at 2-2. Centre star Kenny Aida, gave the Red Wings a one goal advantage but their lead was short-lived as Brian Madill evened the score at 3-3. A pair of goals by right-winger Alan Anderson and a single tally by second line forward Keith James wasn’t enough to give the Pittsburg a victory over the Buffalo team. A last minute tally by Buffalo’s Joe Norton tied up the contest at 3-3. Jim Miller and Jim Malloy fired the other Buffalo goals. The Hornets were without their goalie Bobby Wagg, who has been moved to the Canadiens in an effort to strengthen that club. Using a substitute netminder Dan Kirton in the goal, Lloyd Jennings’ Canadiens chalked up their first victory of the season as they downed the Leafs 5-3 in the final game of the night . Montreal’s tallies were evenly divided among four separate performers, Wayne Oldham, Stan Feasby and Murray Painter (2) blinked the light for the winners. Roger Forsyth found his scoring eye again and fired a pair of goals for the Leafs. Allan Lackey notched the other. CLIPPERS TRIM RICH. HILL 8-2 TO OPEN LEAGUE
The Stouffville Clippers opened the O.H.A. Intermediate “C” schedule on Friday evening with a convincing 8-2 victory ever the Richmond Hill “Jewelers”. Harold Hodgson and Frank Hendy paced the local squad
each potting a pair of goals. Joe Lewis, Bruce McDowell, Doug Forfar and Alex Wilkins notched single tallies. Roberts and Jensen fired both goals for the Yonge Street squad. The score did not indicate the play. The big stumbling block in the path of the Richmond Hill was Clipper netminder, Jack Willis who held the fort against repeated drives by opposing forwards. In the early stages of the game, the Stouffville defence was caught flat-footed on a number of plays and allowed the Hill to break into the clear. Willis rose to the occasion however, and turned their shots aside. Clipper coach, Don McIntosh used Don Weir at centre ice flanked by Harold Hodgson on right wing and Bud Lehman on the left. The second string trio, comprised of Bruce McDowell in the pivot position with Jake Harman and Joe Lewis on the wings. A third threesome grouped Howard, Forgie at centre with Doug Forfar and Frank Hendy on the
wings. Howard Forgie played a dual role taking a turn on defence with Les Clarke, Jack Wilkins and Grant Wagg. Harold Hodgson notched the first of his two goals at 6.10 of the first period when he flipped the rubber into the cage on passes from Don Weir and Bud Lehman. Less than seven minutes later Norm Roberts tied the score at 1-1 where it remain-ed until the end of the period. Jensen put the Yonge Street crew out front at the two minute mark of the second frame but the lead was short-lived as Bruce McDowell banged in Grant Wagg’s rebound to even the count. Defenceman Alex Wilkins combined with Bruce McDowell for one of the nicest goals of the game on a pretty two-way passing effort. From point on the Clippers never looked back. Harold Hodgson made it 4-2 on a pass from Bud Lehman and Joe Lewis lengthened the Stouffville lead at the halfway mark with Alex Wilkins assisting. At 16.53 Frank Hendy blinked the light from Howard Forgie and Doug Forfar after the Richmond Hill netminder had turned aside five point-blank shots. The period ended with Stouffville holding a commanding 6–2 advantage. In the final frame, the Clippers an ran into a rash of double penalties but the opposition couldn’t take advantage of the extra man. Early in the period lLes Clarke and a Richmond Hill forward took part in a fencing bee and both were banished with minor penalties. Later in the contest defencemen Les Clarke and Alex Wilkins were penalized but the combination of Grant Wagg, Bruce McDowel and Harold Hodgson held out. With Alex Wilkins and Doug Forfar in the sin bin, Grant Wagg, Howard Forgie and Les Clarke held the fort. Later in the period Doug Forfar and Joe Lewis were off but for a third time, Coach Don McIntosh’s line held with Grant Wagg, Alex Wilkins and Harold Hodgson performing well. The Clippers salted the game away in the dying minutes of the period. Doug Forfar sizzled a hard shot into the corner of the Richmond Hill net from inside the blueline with Howard Forgie setting up the play, Frank Hendy notched the final tally of the game with an equally hard drive on a pass from Doug Forfar. On the night’s play, Doug Forfar, Howard Forgie and Alex Wilkins were Stouffville’s best performers out front. Netminder Jack Willis was, of course, the star of the game, with an outstanding display in the Stouffville cage.

ART LATCHAM ANNOUNCES THE GIFT OF SWIMMING POOL
Arthur Latcham, who in the past few years has been Stouffville’s benefactor without equal, has come forward with a further proposal for community betterment. Mr. Latcham is prepared to go ahead this spring with the erection of a $30,000 swimming pool for Stouffville. The announcement was made by Reeve Daniels at the regular meeting of Stouffville council on Thursday evening, Reeve Daniels told
council that the pool would have all modern conveniences, heated showers, dressing rooms and chlorination and would be of similar dimensions to the Olympic pool. He said that alternate sites had been suggested in the park but a meeting was to be held shortly with the Park Commission to discuss the project. A cairn was recently completed in the local park honoring Mr. Latcham, who has made it one of the most up-to-date playgrounds in Ontario for towns the size of Stouffville: ball floodlights, grandstand picnic shelter and refreshment booth are all gifts of Mr. Latcham’s generosity. Council wholeheartedly endorsed Mr. Latcham’s plans and were loud in their appreciation of his magnificent generosity. Mr. Latcham, who is an honorary member of the Stouffville Lions Club appeared before the club at the last regular meeting and officially announced that the gift would be given to Stouffville through the auspices of the Lions Club. A number of the details of the construction of the pool were explained by Mr. Latcham and president Dr. John Button told the members that the civic improvement committee under the chairmanship of Lion Ken Wagg would work with Mr. Latcham on the project. GOOD SUPPORT
In spite of the extremely foggy weather conditions, more than 300 fans attended the opening game of the Intermediate “C” hockey schedule here on Thursday night. Those in attendance gave our local boys a rousing ovation when they appeared on the ice and although the contest was delayed more than one hour due to the late arrival of the Milton team, the fans held their seats and watched the game. Through we feel sure that Stouffville supporters will see some thrilling hockey here this reason and if the Clippers are fortunate enough to win their group then the competition will become exceptionally keen. There are 64 Intermediate “C” teams in Ontario, one of the largest O.H.A. leagues in operation. There’s no denying the Clippers have a good club this season. The defence has been bolstered with the addition of Markham rearguard Bob Fetch who will pair up with ex-Unionville junior Grant Wagg, Les Clarke and Alex Wilkins form the other defensive combination. The return of Gord Lewis has added considerable power to the front line and coach Don McIntosh immediately inserted the centre star between wingers Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman. Although we haven’t seen the netminders with Aurora, Bradford and Beeton, we are sure that the Clippers regular goalie Jack Willis is capable of replacing ex-clipper Norm Stunden. Russ Forfar well-known Stouffville Sutton hockeyists, has donned a Clipper uniform and fired one of Stouffville’s eight goals at Milton on Friday night. Although the Clippers may have appeared slightly scruffy on Thursday in their home debut, they will not remain that way for long since a new set of uniforms have been ordered and are expected very soon. Until they arrive the players must make use of their old sweaters. Well it’s three straight victories for the homesters which places them on top of
the heap. They will meet one of their toughest tests on Thursday night when Aurora will move into town to contest the league leadership. See you there. RULED INELIGIBLE
Local hockey fans are wondering what O.H.A. ruling is preventing Clipper coach don McIntosh from playing in scheduled games with Stouffville as well as coaching the club to be honest I haven’t heard a reasonable explanation of the matter but apparently the top brass have ruled the local rear guard ineligible to compete in “C” class hockey according to our information Mac was allowed to play for the Clippers in a competition last season as a special favour but when Stouffville dropped down to “C” the O.H.A. said xo in c ranks Stouffville is allowed two imports goalie Jack Willis and coach Don McIntosh would be classed as imports since they are residents in the metropolitan area why the Clipper coach cant play we don’t know if he remains out of active competition this season will he be able to play for Stouffville’s “C” team next year this is a question that perhaps convener Ab Hulse could answer the senior “B” clubs in Milton and Brampton are begging McIntosh to drop the coaching duties here and play for them but their requests have been turned down Don McIntosh enjoys the game and would like nothing better than to don a uniform but he has accepted the position and intends to fulfill his obligation the slap-shot artist will be missed on the Stouffville blueline this winter. DOWN UNIONVILLE BY 5-2
Stouffville Bantams chalked up their first pre-schedule victory on Wednesday afternoon of last week when they defeated Unionville 5-2. The homesters goals were divided evenly through the team with five players figuring in the scoring. Derek Arbuckle and Jack Lehman teamed up for the first Stouffville tally in the opening period. In the second frame, Williard Peddie blinked the light to give the locals a 2-0 edge. Unionville rallied to deadlock the score. Conlin notched both goals, one unassisted and the other on passes from Johnston and Armstrong. The last period was all Stouffville in the scoring department. Defenceman Roger Stover put the homesters out front to stay and the McMullen brothers salted the game away, each potting a single tally. Larry made it 4-2 and brother Lynn fired Stouffville’s fifth goal . There were five penalties in the contest, three to Unionville and two to Stouffville. BEAT MILTON SECOND TIME
The Clippers handed Milton a double defeat last week beating them here on Thursday night 4-1 and trouncing them 8-3 on their home ice on Friday. Howard Forgie paced Stouffville to their third straight victory with a pair of goals and one assist. Single tallies came from the sticks of Bruce McDowell, Harold Hodgson, Frank Hendy, Gord Lewis, Russ Forfar and Doug Forfar. Bud Lehman picked up a pair of assists to move out front in the individual scoring statistics. At one point in the game, Milton held a 3-1 advantage but their lead was short-lived. The Clippers defence was woefully weak, due to injuries and other reasons. The lone regular, Alex Wilkins suffered a three stitch cut over the eye and was forced out of the game thus adding to the seriousness of their plight. Grant Wagg, Les Clarke and Bob Petch had to work and could not attend. PEEWEE HOCKEY RESULTS
The Boston Bruins, coached by Ted Cadieux, broke out in a rash of goals on Monday evening to shut out the Black Hawks 7-0. It was their first victory in the Lions Peewee League. In the other games, Rangers and Detroit battled to a 2-2 tie; Buffalo downed the Leafs 4-1 and Pittsburg trounced the Canadiens 9-1. The bruins led by fast- stepping Francis Haylow shut out the Black Hawks 7-0. The Boston win was a real upset, since it was the Bruins first victory and Chicago’s initial loss. The hawks could not hold centre star Francis Haylow in check and he broke into the clear time and time again. He potted four goals, most of them on clean-cut breakaways. The other goals were scored by Paul Lintner from Wayne Crowder, Murray Arksey and Michael Vilely. The Hawks efforts were furthered hampered by the fine goaltending display of local puck stopper, Laurie Buckland. After four good games in the nets for the Bruins, the Boston netminder finally chalked up a well-deserved shutout. In the opening game of the evening, the Rangers and Red Wings battled to a 2-2 tie. For a time it appeared likely that New York would defeat the powerful Detroit team, as they broke into the lead on two occasions, but each time the Red Wings came back to even the score. Larry Taylor was the top marksman for the Rangers netting a pair of goals. Kenny Aida and Ross Brown each potted singles for the Wings. The split in the points moved Detroit to within one point of the league-leading Hawks. The Pittsburg Hornets continue to roll along atop the Bantam section of the Peewee League, as they soundly trounced the Canadiens 9-1. Warren Hendricks scored the three goal hat trick for the winners, while leftwinger Alan Anderson notched two. Frank Taylor also potted a pair. Wayne Hamilton and Keith McDowell fired singles. Charles Blacklock blinked the light for Montreal’s only tally. It was the most goals yet scored on goalie Bobby Wagg, who was shifted to the Montreal team in an effort to strengthen the club’s defensive strength. Buffalo chalked up another victory over the winless Leafs on Monday evening. Jimmy Miller kept pace with Warren Hendricks of Pittsburg by notching a three goal hat trick. David Coppins notched one. Roger Forsyth scored the lone Maple Leaf tally. It was the first Young Canada Night sponsored this season by the Peewee Hockey Management. A good attendance was recorded and the money gained through ticket sales will be used to purchase much-needed sweaters for the teams. JACK WATSON TO COACH MIDGETS
Jack Watson has agreed to coach the Stouffville Juvenile entry here this season. The local hockey and softball star has already put the team through a number of workouts. Although the Juvenile club isn’t
loaded with players, their roster, on paper looks exceptionally strong. The team has two goaltending prospects in Bud Thomas and Bruce Smith. On defence there is Don Haynes, Don Jackson, Ron Hedges and Ed Sanders. The forward lines comprise the following players: Mike McStravick, Ross Madill, Murray Holden, Steve Wideman, Harry Barber and Ted Suzuki. A schedule will be drawn up following a group meeting to be held this week.

LAUNCH BENEFIT FUND FOR LOCAL PLAYER INJURED IN CLIPPER GAME
An all-out drive is being launched this week in aid of Gordon Lewis, who was so seriously hurt during a Clipper hockey game with Aurora on Thursday night last. The player had his leg broken in two places; he
is now in a cast which will confine him for some six months and it is expected to be nearly a year’s time before he will be able to resume his normal occupation. Doctors reported the break to be the most serious that could have occurred. Gordon Lewis who drives a milk truck is married and has two small children, and his injury and subsequent layoff is a serious blow to the family. Gord has played hockey for Stouffville since he was quite a young lad. He has always been one of the most popular members of
the Clippers and has contributed substantially to local hockey victories in the past. A committee has been set up including L.E. O’Neill, Reg Button, Gar Lehman and Ken Laushway, representatives of the Arena and hockey club, to conduct this campaign which opens officially this Thursday night. The new Arena programs will be distributed at the Arena on Thursday night for the first time at the Clipper-Bradford game and fans will be asked to contribute to the Benefit Fund. Contributions will be received daily, at the Arena, L.E. O’Neill’s, Ken Laushway’s and the Tribune office, as well as by Gar Lehman, secretary-treasurer of the Clippers. While these boys like to play hockey and take certain risks by doing so, local hockey fans are annually entertained by the fellows who race up and down the ice lanes. In providing this entertainment, one of their number has been seriously injured and it is up to us to rally to his assistance with all the means we can muster. Gord Lewis has always been a real sport for Stouffville — let us be good sports and contribute generously to this fund. Just a little from every hockey fan would mean so much. AURORA HAND 6-3 DEFEAT TO MIDGETS
Aurora Midgets stepped into town on Friday evening and handed the local midget entry a 6-3 setback. It was Stouffville’s second loss in as many nights. They were blanked by King City at Nobleton on Thursday
night 4-0. The winners were the better team on the night’s play and were worthy victors, Their passing plays were well perfected which caught the local defence flat-footed on a number of occasions. Michael Patrick put Aurora in the lead at 7.30 of the first period but Ron Stewart evened the count in the second frame with defenceman Earl Thompson in the penalty box. The Yonge street crew moved out front before the whistle sounded. Stouffville netminder Roger Beazley fanned on Larry Sutton’s corner drive.
In the final period, Aurora doubled the score on the homesters notching four goals to Stouffville’s two. A pair of goals by Larry Wall and one each from the sticks of Keith Scott and Keith Browning sewed up contest for Aurora. Ernie and Norm Hendricks fired single tallies in the loser’s cause. The three-way Aurora passing plays kept the Stouffville team somewhat disorganized throughout most of the game. Ernie Abraham, Norm Hendricks and Ron Stewart were the best for the homesters.

LIONS PEEWEE HOCKEY
The Pittsburg Hornets, coached by Mr. Tom Wedseltoft, almost met their match on Monday evening when they took on the cellar-dwelling Maple Leafs. The first place Hornets squeezed out a tight 4-3 victory in the final game of the night. In the other contests, the Rangers downed the Black Hawks 4-1; the Red Wings edged Boston 2-1; and Buffalo humbled the Canadiens 7-1. The first-string line of Warren Hendricks, Wayne Hamilton and Allan Anderson packed too much power and fired three of Pittsburgh’s four tallies. The Leafs put up a fine effort and played one of their best games of the season. Marvin Betz donned the pads and guarded the nets for the Leafs. Marvin is the sub-netminder for the Bantam team but will play Peewee unless needed by the OMHA entry. Right winger Allan Anderson, one of the most improved players in the league, continued his prolific scoring spree by notching a pair of goals. Paul Evans and Wayne Hamilton fired singles. Wayne Hamilton picked up two assists and Frank Taylor assisted on one. The Hornets final tally was a perfect two- way passing play as centreman Warren Hendricks and Wayne Hamilton combined for the goal. Hendricks crossed the Leaf blue- line and flipped the puck to Hamilton to put the Hornet leftwinger in the clear. He made no mistake with a low shot to the
corner. Roger Forsyth, Tim Kennedy and John Torrance blinked the light for the losing Leafs. In spite of the setback, the Leafs looked good and held the lead for a portion of the game. Geo Smith was one of the best players for the losers and picked up an assist on the goal by John Torrance. Allan Lackey assisted on Tim Kennedy’s tally. A fine hat trick effort by Barry McLean paced Buffalo to a 7-1 victory over the Canadiens on Monday evening. Garry Yates notched a pair with single tallies coming from the sticks of Jimmy Malloy and Joe Norton. Charles Blacklock fired the lone goal for Montreal. The win for Buffalo kept them within reach of the first place Hornets, who hold a three point edge at the present time. Canadiens are in fourth place, one point ahead of the Leafs. Two high-scoring forwards Kenny Aida and Ross Brown are keeping the Red Wings on top of the Peewee group. On Monday night these two performers each notched a single goal to give Detroit a 2-1 edge over the last place Bruins. Francis Haylow fired the lone Boston tally. the Boston centre star worked hard every time out but his Red Wing rival Ross Brown kept him in check for most of the game. A loss by the Black Hawks and victories by the Rangers and Red Wings dropped Chicago from first place into a tie for the second position. In the opening contest on Monday evening, the Rangers upset the favoured Black Hawks 4-1. Tom Benson was New York’s leading goal-getter, notching a three goal hat trick. Delwin Chase scored the other Ranger tally. Billy Payne fired the lone Hawk goal. MENS‘ BOWLING

The Stouffville Clippers suffered their second setback in as many games with Aurora when they dropped a 9-5 verdict to the Bel Aires on Tuesday night of this week. Although the local squad held a 2-0 lead at the end of the first period, they ran out of steam in the second frame and the Yonge Street crew moved into the lead to stay. Harold Hodgson paced the Clipper attack with one goal and 2 assists. The other marksmen were Bud Lehman, Bruce McDowell, Frank Hendy and Doug Forfar. Bud Lehman received a nasty cut in the face in the first period but returned to the lineup in the 2nd frame. Defenceman Bob Petch and forward Howard Forgie did not make the trip. Goalie Jack Willis, forward Doug Forfar and defenceman Grant Wagg performed best for Stouffville. In addition to the loss of Gord Lewis from the lineup, the OHA has informed the Clipper management that they cannot use sub-goalie Geo. Wilkins since he is considered to be an import. The OMA will not permit a team to sign any import to replace one who has been released. Forward Don Weir was released two weeks ago. Prior to the game, the Stouffville players dropped in to see team mate Gord Lewis in the York County hospital at Newmarket. BANTAMS RALLY TO BEAT PORT 6-4 IN OPENER
Stouffville Bantams pulled a surprise victory on Monday evening when they upset Port Perry 6-4 in the opening game of their OMHA group. Trailing 3-1 at the end of the first period, the local entry staged a second and third period rally to chalk up their initial win. Bob Lehman, centering a first-string line of Joe Harold and Rick Wedseltoft, fired a three goal hat trick for Stouffville. Single tallies came from the sticks of Roger Stover, Larry Malloy and Rick Wedseltoft. Coach Keith Sutherland used Keith Stewart at centre on the second line with Norm Galbraith and Allan Boyd on the wings. Roger Stover, Larry Malloy and Williard Peddie worked on defence. Glenn Jackson guarded the Stouffville net.

CLIPPERS BEAT BRADFORD 5-2, CLEAN, FAST GAME
The Clippers snapped a two-game losing streak on Thursday night of last week when they downed Bradford 5-2, in a clean, fast contest. Bud Lehman was Stouffville’s leading marksman potting a pair of goals. Howard Forgie, Bruce McDowell and Joe Lewis were the other Clipper marksmen. Bob Veale and Bill Orr fired Bradford’s goals. The contest was the best to be played here this season. It featured rink-long passing plays, spectacular goaltending and a minimum of penalties. Only 3 players occupied the sin bin in the entire contest and these were for minor infractions of the rules. The most sensational performer on the ice was Bradford’s netminder, Bob Lynn. The grey-haired goaltender pulled off some fine stops in an effort to hold the homesters off the score sheet. On a number of occasions he blocked three and four shots in a row from the sticks of goal- – hungry forwards. At 1.45 of the first period the visitors jumped into the lead on a tally by Bob Vale. The goal was a “fluke” affair that dribbled into the corner before Clipper netminder Geo. Wilkins could cover. Bud Lehman evened the count at 11.21 on a pass from Russ Forfar. Joe Lewis, Bud Lehman and Bruce McDowell were Stouffville’s best in the first frame. Howard Forgie put the Clippers ahead to stay at 17.50 of the second period. He broke into the clear at the Bradford blue- line and made no mistake with a low shot. Russ Forfar picked up an assist on the play. Bruce McDowell’s backhander on a pass from Joe Lewis caught the corner at 19.30 to give Stouffville a 3-1 advantage. The final frame saw the Clippers outscore their rivals 2-1. Bill Orr notched Bradford’s second goal at 5.29 but Bud Lehman and Joe Lewis sewed up the contest with single tallies in the late stages of the game. Alex Wilkins and Bruce McDowell picked up assists on the goals. On Thursday night of next week Richmond Hill will make their initial visit to Stouffville. BANTAM BLANK UXBRIDGE 12-0, MALLOY NETS FOUR
Stouffville’s Bantam Team, coached by Keith Sutherland, chalked up their second straight victory when they blanked Uxbridge 12-0 on Wednesday evening. Larry Malloy paced the winner’s attack with four
goals. In addition the centre star collected a pair of assists. Lynn McMullen, teaming with brother Larry, fired the 1st Stouffville goal at 2.25 of the first period. Two minutes later Larry Malloy notched his initial tally on a clean-cut breakaway. Allan Boyd made it 3-0 on a pass from Grant Foreman. In the second frame, the homesters collected six un-answered tallies. Larry Malloy added two more to his total with singles coming from the sticks of Derek Arbuckle, Lynn McMullen, Larry McMullen and Grant Foreman. Larry Malloy, Derek Arbuckle and Allan Boyd potted goals in the final frame. Stouffville netminder, Glenn Jackson turned in a good performance and gained full credit for his shutout. He was given good support by defenceman Roger Stover, Geo. Malcolm, Williard Peddie and Bob Lehman. Garry Elson was the best performer for Uxbridge. Coach Bill Bradbury used two net-minders, Rob’t McLean sharing the goaltending duties with Jackie Brillinger. Coach Sutherland started pivot player Grant Foreman at centre ice on the first line between wingers Lynn and Larry McMullen. This trio figured in five of the team’s dozen goals. Larry Malloy worked between Bob Lehman and Derek Arbuckle. Allan Boyd also took a turn at the left wing spot and Lehman dropped back on defence. TO DONATE ONE-DAY PROFIT TO LEWIS FUND

Benefit Fund. The popular local hockey players suffered a broken leg in a hockey game here on December 13. Following the operation he was permitted to return home.

CLIPPERS BLANKED 5-0 BY BEETON, MORE PLAYERS INJURED
The Clippers came up with their most dismal hockey display of the season here Thurs- day night when they bowed to Beeton 5-0. It was Beeton’s 7th straight victory and placed them solidly on top of the group. Bruce Nichol and Bob Brolley each netted a pair for the winners. Colin Whelan fired a single goal. The homesters continue to be plagued with injuries leftwinger Bud Lehman was sidelined for the greater portion of Thursday’s contest when he was clipped for five stitches above the eye in the first period. He returned to action late in the second frame but did not play in the last period. Jake Harman suffered a nasty bump on the head midway through the game, and Howard Forgie was cut on the face. Both players remained in the contest. The Clippers appeared very disorganized and although they showed brief flashes of front-line passing power, their plays usually ended up in the corner behind the net. Beeton net- minder, Bob Kairns chalked up a shut-out but was not over-worked in any period. In the sixty minute contest, he had little more than a dozen shots to block and the majority of these were of the weak variety. The loss of Bud Lehman and the absence of Doug Forfar seemed to throw the homesters attack oft balance. The largest crowd of the season saw the Stouffville club at its worst. The defence was very weak and provided netminder Jack Willis with feeble support. Time and time again they backed in on top of him and completely cut off his view. Markham’s donation to the team, Bob Petch failed to put in an appearance and has missed four of the clubs seven games. Richmond Hill will be the visitors here this
week.

HORNETS STILL UNBEATEN IN PEEWEE HOCKEY
Tom Wedseltoft’s Pittsburg Hornets continue to set a torrid pace in the Bantam section of the Stouffville Lions Peewee League. After seven scheduled contests they have chalked up six victories and one tie for a total of 13 points. On Saturday afternoon they scored a 4-2 victory over the fourth place Canadians. In other games, Buffalo blanked the Leafs 6-0, the Black hawks shut out Boston1-0 and the Red wings downed the Rangers 3-1. The unbeaten Hornets will meet their toughest test one week from Monday evening when they battle the second place Buffalo squad. Buffalo has dropped only one game out of seven. Warren Hendricks was the driving force behind the Pittsburg victory on Saturday with two goals and one assist. Defenceman Keith McDowell fired one tally and picked up one assist. Frank Taylor notched the other. Garry Gall and Eric Mortimer potted singles for Montreal. Buffalo rolled to a comparatively easy victory over the last place Leafs as they blanked the cellar-dwellers 6-0. Buffalo’s scoring was divided among three players, each netting a pair. Cliff Reynolds, Don Gibson and Martin Miller blinked the light on two occasions. The latter player was a visitor in town over the weekend and was permitted to take part in the game. Jimmy Miller picked up two assists on Don Gibson’s tallies. Larry Spang of the Leafs spent four minutes of the contest in the penalty box. A win for the Black Hawks and a loss by the Rangers shoved the New Yorkers down into the fourth place position in the group standing. Ross Brown notched two goals for the Red Wings and Ted Redshaw blinked the light with a single tally. Larry Taylor scored the lone Montreal goal. Billy Payne notched an important goal in the Chicago-Boston contest as the Hawks edged the last place Bruins 1-0. The one goal for the Chicago team moved them up into sole possession of second place, one point behind the 1st place Red Wings. BANTAMS EDGE PORT ON MACMILLAN’S GOAL
Lynn McMullen’s goal with less than five minutes remaining in the game gave the Stouffville Bantams a 3-2 victory over Port Perry in a scheduled contest here on Wednesday night. The right-winger batted the puck into the cage while lying in front of the net during a goalmouth scramble. Larry Malloy and Joe Harold notched the other tallies for the homesters. Doug McMillan and Jim Burnett notched the goals for the visitors. Coach Keith Sutherland had a full squad out for Wednesdays game. He used a third line, comprising Joe Harold at centre flanked by Allan Boyd and Norm Galbraith on the Wings. Grant Foreman worked between the McMullen brothers while Larry Malloy was the pivot performer between Derek Arbuckle and Bob Lehman. Larry Malloy caught the corner with a backhand shot at 5.35 of the first period to give the local team a 1-0 lead, but two minutes later Doug McMillan evened the score with a hard drive that slipped through goalie Jackson’s glove. Joe Harold’s weak shot had enough steam to carry it over the goal line for Stouffville’s second tally at 10.45. The Port Perry netminder fanned on the drive. At 13.30 Jim Burnett put Port Perry on even terms for the second time in the game. It wasn’t until the 15.10 mark of the final frame. that Lynn McMullen cashed in for the game-winning marker. There was on one penalty, that t0 centreman Larry Malloy for tripping. Don Haynes of Stouffville and Bob Carnegie of Port Perry officiated. Stouffville appeared somewhat disorganized throughout most of the game, springing to life in the late stages of the third period. Grant Foreman, Norm Galbraith and Glenn Jackson were best for the winners. MIDGETS RALLY TO TIE NEWMARKET 5-5
Stouffville came up with their finest hockey exhibition of the season here on Friday night when they rallied to tie the powerful Newmarket club 5-5. Garry Taylor was the hero of the contest for the homesters firing three of Stouffville’s five tallies. Glenn Pennanen and Norm Hendricks notched the others. Larry Bone duplicated Taylor’s efforts with a hat-trick performance for the Canaltown crew. John McKnight fired a pair. In the first period it appeared likely that the visitors would pile up a substantial lead when they outscored the locals 3-0. In the second period however, Stouffville came to life and out-scored their rivals four goals to two. Norm Hendricks potted the tying tally in the last frame, picking up a loose puck in front of the Newmarket net and firing it over the prostrate netminder Jerry Oatman. There was only one penalty in the game that to Garry Taylor for hooking. The Stouffville Midget team looked more like the Bantam entry of last season, that marched through to the Ontario semi-finals. As a unit, they outplayed their rivals and on the night’s performance they deserved at least a split in the points. The second string line of Ron Stewart, Bryce Spencer and Garry Taylor looked exceptionally good. They passed the puck around with extreme agility and on a number of occasions came very close to adding to their three goal total. In the dying minutes of the contest Claremont’s Garry Taylor broke in alone on the Newmarket cage but hoisted his hard shot fifteen feet over the net and the back boards. Spencer played one of his better games on right wing. The line of Norm Hendricks, Rick Wedseltoft and Glenn Pennanen played their usual steady game, although Hendricks is still inclined to perform too many solo plays thus failing to share the chores with his wing- men. His winning tally however was a nice effort, lobbing a backhander over the heads of three players into the empty goal. The work of Newmarket’s ace right winger Johnny McKnight drew the admiration of both spectators and players as he dipsy-doodled his way through the locals defences time and time again. His stickhandling ability was the best we’ve seen here this season in a minor league contest but inaccuracy around the Stouffville net prevented him from collecting more than a pair of goals.

JUVES OUTCLASS BROOKLIN TO BLANK RIVALS 10-0
A combination of speed and three-way passing attacks carried the Stouffville Juvenile team to their second straight victory here on Monday night as they whitewashed Brooklin 10-0. In the first and second periods the homesters tried to split the Brooklin defences with individual solo efforts but in the final frame Coach Jack Watson ordered an all-out passing attack. Coach Watson’s advice was obeyed to the letter and the plan paid off in seven unanswered goals. At the end of the second period, Stouffville held a 3-0 lead on goals by Ross Madill, Don Haynes and Mike McStravick. In the last session, Ross Madill, Don Haynes and Howard Malcolm each fired a pair with Mike McStravick potting a single. Bud Thomas in the Stouffville net collected his first shutout of the season. He was not over-worked at any stage of the game and handled less than a dozen direct drives throughout the entire contest. It was a case of too much power and speed for the Brookin to handle. Dressing only ten men the winners charged up and down the ice and although shorthanded they appeared to possess plenty of drive right to the final whistle. The trio of Mike McStravick Ross Madill and Murray Holden looked exceptionally good and counted five of the team’s ten tallies. Don Haynes was a powerhouse on defence, blasting three goals past Brooklin’s Bill Asling. Ross Madill, the other hat trick performer, played perfect positional hockey giving the Brooklin rearguards little rest when inside the blueline. Howard Malcolm was another Stouffville star, working on both the defence and forward line. Ted Suzuki centred the second line with Malcolm and Wideman on the wings. Biggs, Kaine and McDuft formed Brooklin’s first line trio with Ron Jones and Lorne Disney on defence. The latter two players performed well. A five minute brawl broke out in the dying minutes of the game and referee “Tip” Vipond handed out two major and two minor penalties to four players. Murray Holden of Stouffville and Biggs of Brooklin opened the fisticuffs. Ross Madill of Stouffville and McDuff of Brooklin also exchanged blows. Both Brooklin players came out on the wrong end of the bout as they were promptly pinned by the local pucksters. Aside from the late-game free-for-all, the contest was a very clean affair with only four additional penalties being meted out. On Friday evening of this week the local squad journeys to Uxbridge. On Monday night at 10 o’clock, they will face their toughest task when they hook up with Unionville in a home encounter here. The teams will meet gain at Unionville on the following Tuesday night. LAST PLACE BRUINS EDGE FIRST PLACE WINGS 2-1
Ted Cadieux’s Bruins pulled a real upset on Monday evening when they edged the first place Red Wings 2-1. It was only the second victory for Boston in the eight game schedule. Detroit has won 4, lost 2 and tied 2. In the other games, Rangers downed the Hawks 3-1, Pittsburg defeated Leafs 4-1 and Buffalo blanked Montreal 1-0. It was Francis Haylow vs Ross Brown in the Bruin-Red Wing contest. Both rival for- wards played well and collected all the goals. Haylow fired two while Brown notched one. A loss to the Wings and a victory for the Rangers moved the New York squad to within one point of the league-leaders. The Rangers and Hawks are now deadlocked in second place, each with nine- points. Larry Taylor paced the Rangers to their win potting a pair of goals. Ronnie Castle, playing his finest game of the season, blinked the light for the other New York tally. Mike Cadieux counted the lone goal for Chicago. Two goals by Wayne Hamilton and single tallies from the sticks of Norm Tindall and Warren Hendricks gave the Pittsburg Hornets a 4-1 victory over the Maple Leafs. It was the Hornets seventh straight win. The Leafs have yet to register a victory but have counted a pair of ties. Donald Drake netted the lone Toronto tally. Mr. Mortimer has taken over the coaching duties of the first place Pittsburg squad replacing Mr. Tom Wedseltoft, who finds himself tied down with the Midget club. Wayne Oldham turned in one of the finest goaltending displays of the season when he turned back 45 shots in the nets for the Canadiens. In spite of his valiant efforts the Buffalo team managed to squeeze one puck past him to win the game 1-0. Don Gibson was the marksman tipping the disk into the far corner beyond the out stretched glove of goalie Oldham.
– BANTAMS BLANK UXBRIDGE 4-0
Stouffville Bantams extended their winning streak to five successive games on Friday evening of last week when they shut out Uxbridge 4-0. Goalie Glenn Jackson turned in a perfect performance to hold the rival forwards off the score sheet. The four tallies were evenly divided through the team with single goals coming from the sticks of Larry Malloy, Joe Herold, Lynn McMullen and Bob Lehman. The return tilt between the same two clubs was played here on Wednesday night of this week and a report of this contest will appear in next weeks issue. JETS BEAT ALLISTON IN JUNIOR TILT
Polly Minton’s Unionville Jets are presently setting a torrid pace atop their OHA Junior ‘D’ group. On Friday night of last week, they upset the favoured Alliston squad 7-5 before more than 200 fans. The contest was a real thriller that saw Alliston gain a lead only to wilt under pressure in the second period. As in previous games, newcomer Stan Thornington was one of the big guns in the Jets’ attack, firing a pair of goals. John Darbyson potted a pair with singles coming from the sticks of Gus Olmsted, Brian Allan and Don Tran. Alliston killed their own chances of winning the game by repeated rough tactics which kept the club continually short- handed. The jets played surprisingly clean hockey in spite of the rugged competition and took advantage of their edge in manpower. The victory kept the Jets firmly entrenched in the first place slot. They hope to collect an additional two points on Friday night when they entertain Elmvale. They play the return tilt on Monday and then move over to Alliston to battle that club on Friday of next week.

The three male members of the staff of the local Public School, principal Lorne Boadway and Messrs. Keith Sutherland and Wilt Morley hare introduced a complete year-round sports program which has been enthusiastically received by the students. Inter-school activities have become very popular. During the summer months, softball holds the sports spotlight and last year Stouffville captured the inter-school honours. During the winter, hockey moves into the picture and here again the students are ready and willing to meet out-of-town opposition. Last summer, the first school field day to be organized in years was run off and it is expected to become an annual event. Soccer has also become popular thanks to the leadership of the local staff members. In addition to this busy extra-curricular routine, Mr. Sutherland also finds time to handle the coaching duties of the local Bantam entry in the OMHA . He also takes a turn at officiating at the Midget’s home and away contests. Our young students are becoming more and more sports conscious, not only in the rules of the games but in the practice of good sportsmanship which is a very important part of their training. DON’T MISS IT
On Saturday night, Jan 26th, Stouffville and district hockey fans will view the finest array of local hockey talent ever to be assembled in the arena for a single game. The Clippers of 1951-52 were without doubt the most colorful hockey aggregation ever to perform under a Stouffville nameplate. They have consented to return for a one night stand and meet the 1957 edition of the Clippers in an exhibition game. The receipts from contest will be added to the Gord Lewis Benefit Fund. The majority of the Senior ‘B’ champs have retired from active hockey service but with two or three workouts under their belts, they hope to provide plenty of hockey thrills for the large crowd that is expected to attend. Coach Bob Bangay will return to active duty along with brother Nick, Geo. Stark, Morley Petch, Bert Baker, Jim Machin, Herb Rose, Frank Stephenson, Norm Stunden, Blake Eatough, Jack Watson, Jack Polly Minton, Hal Gibson and Ronnie Bell. Loring Doolittle of Newmarket and Ted Topping of Stouffville have offered their services
as officials at the game. Local hockey promoters are going all out to make it one the biggest nights in Stouffville’s hockey history. It is hoped the fans in Stouffville and district will vacate their comfortable TV chairs on this one occasion and come down to the Arena on Saturday evening Jan. 26th.
Playing Coach Bob Bangay and the Clipper hockey club of 1951-52 held their first workout this week in preparation for the Gord Lewis Benefit Game to be played in the arena on Saturday evening, Jan. 26th.

LOCAL JUVENILES AND JETS BATTLE TO 3-3 DRAW
The Unionville Jets staged a two goal rally in the last period to tie Stouffville 3-3 in a scheduled Juvenile game played in the Unionville arena on Tuesday night. It was the second meeting in as many nights for the two clubs. Stouffville chalked up a 5-2 win here on Monday. Stouffville’s big line of Mike McStravick, Ross Madill and Murray Holden packed all the scoring power for the local squad with each of the three forwards counting a single tally. Allan Tidsbury with a pair and John Little were the Jet marksmen. Stouffville moved out front in the first period 1-0 on a goal by centreman Mike McStravick on a pass from Ross Madill. Madill and McStravick teamed up for the visitors second tally at the nine minute mark of the second frame. Allan Tidsbury broke the ice for Unionville at 10.15. In the final session, Unionville outscored the local squad 2-1 to gain the 3-3 deadlock. Early in the third period, Murray Holden blinked the light for Stouffville with McStravick and Madill picking up assists. Trailing 3-1 with time running out, John Little fired a bullet shot between the pads of goalie Bud Thomas to cut down the Stouffville lead. With less than two minutes to play, Allan Tidsbury banged a loose puck over the line on passes from Jim Johnston and Pete Darbyson to give the Jets a split in the points. Unionville deserved the tie on their nights performance. With the exception of the first period, they had a good share of the play but erratic shooting around the Stouffville net spoiled many good scoring opportunities. Ross Madill was Stouffville’s best. Midway through the last period, Don Haynes, hard-driving Stouffville defenceman, was hit hard inside his own blueline by Unionville’s Pete Darbyson and he had to be assisted off the ice. Minus his services, the local rearguard appeared considerably weaker and finally faded under persistent Unionville attack. Although officials Bruce Harper of Stouffville and Charlie Cuthbertson of Unionville hand ed out a total of nine penalties, the game was minus the rough-house tactics of some previous contests. The Jets served six of the nine penalties. Followers of I the two teams are expecting a bang-up series if the two clubs should clash in the group finals. UPSET HOLD SPOTLIGHT IN LIONS LEAGUE
There were three major up-sets in the Lions Peewee Hockey League on Monday evening. The last place Bruins blanked the second place Rangers 7-0, in the “little lads” group. In the Peewee (Bantam) loop, second place Buffalo downed first place Pittsburg 5-3 and the cellar- dwelling Leafs defeated third place Montreal 3-0. In the other contest, the Red Wings shut out the Hawks 4-0. The last place Bruins chalked up their third victory of the season, when they whitewashed the Rangers 7-0. The contest was a field day for first string centre star, Francis Haylow who potted five of his teams tallies. Wayne Crowder and Murray Arksey notched singles. New York were shorthanded for the game, lacking two of their top goal-
scorers in Jimmy Harper and Larry Taylor. Regular net- minder Billy Brown was also absent. It was the second shut- out this season for Boston’s fine netminder Laurie Buckland. The Boston win moved them to within three points of New York and Chicago who are tied on the second rung, each with nine points. A three-goal hat trick performance by ace centre star, Ross Brown carried the Red Wings to their fifth victory on Monday evening. Two of his tallies were unassisted. Keith Betz fired the other Detroit goal. Jimmy Miller made hockey history on Monday evening when he led his Buffalo club to a 5-3 win over Pittsburg. It was the Hornets first loss of the entire season and moved Buffalo to within one point of the leaders. One of Miller’s three goals was unassisted. Don Gibson and Garry Brown picked up assists on the other two tallies. Barry McLean and Garry Yates fired singles for the winners. Pittsburgh’s goals were all singles coming from the sticks of Warren Hendricks, Frank Taylor and Wayne Hamilton. The Leafs pulled another big upset on Monday night when they chalked up their initial victory of the season. They blanked Lloyd Jennings’ Canadiens 3-0. The win moved the Toronto crew into sole possession of third place in the group, one point ahead of Montreal. Roger Forsyth found his scoring eye and netted two goals. Allan Lackie picked up assists on both tallies. Bruce Browning and Geo. Smith combined for the other Leaf goal. Bud Lehman took the coaching duties of the Toronto team for the night.

MIDGETS HUMBLE WILCOX 13-1, THREE HAT TRICKS
Three players, Rick Wedseltoft, Garry Taylor and Ron Stewart, each came up with hat trick performances on Friday night as the Midgets humbled Lake Wilcox here thirteen to one. Glenn Pennanen potted a pair with single tallies coming from the sticks of Bryce Spencer and Norm Hendricks. John Hall netted the only goal for the visitors. Stouffville held a 6-1 advantage at the end of the first period, added two in the second frame and completed the rout with five more in the final frame. The homesters’ goals came thick and fast in the first period, notching four tallies in less than five minutes. Rick Wedseltoft’s 2 goals in the last period came within 35 seconds of each other. The Lake Wilcox netminder, Jerry Glover performed well in the visitors cage blocking dozens of labelled shots. Roger Beazley arid Ron Mortimer shared the chores in the Stouffville nets but neither was overworked. Beazley pulled off the best single save of the night, kicking aside a backhand shot that appeared to have him beaten. The contest was cleanly played with only four penalties being handed out by referee Keith Sutherland, two to Stouffville and two to Lake Wilcox. OUTDOOR RINK ON TENNIS COURTS
A number of parents have been taking advantage of the frigid weather to put a thick layer of ice on the local tennis court. This outdoor rink was flooded for the first time last winter and provided hockey and pleasure skating enjoyment for dozens of boys and girls. Due to the problems of flooding and snow removal more manual labour could be used. Parents who wish to assist in the operation of this outdoor arena should contact Mr. Ted Cadieux at 24J2. BANTAMS GET UNEARNED VICTORY OVER UXBRIDGE
The Stouffville Bantams came up with a very unimpressive victory over Uxbridge here on Wednesday evening of last week. Coach Keith Sutherland shuffled his lines around in an effort to put a spark in
the teams attack, but the move brought about little change in their disorganized play. Although the homesters came out on the right end of a 5-3 score, their victory was mainly due to the fine work of goalie Glenn Jackson, who turned in his best performance of the season. Robert McLean in the Uxbridge net wasn’t so steady and let in a couple of fluke tallies. The Uxbridge trio of Garry Geer, Bob Bradbury and Garry Jackson looked exceptionally good and outclassed Stouffville’s best. Bob Bradbury notched the three goals for the visitors. Derek Arbuckle paced the local marksmen, potting a pair of goals. Singles came from the sticks of Lynn McMullen, Larry Malloy and Grant Foreman. The best player on the ice for Stouffville, with the exception of netminder Jackson, was centreman Grant Foreman. He fired one goal and picked up an assist. The hardworking pivot performer played between wingers Bob Lehman and Larry Malloy. Allan Boyd filled in on left wing also. Lynn McMullen centred the first string trio with Larry McMullen and Derek Arbuckle playing the wings. Uxbridge were slow in starting and allowed the local squad to jump into a 4-1 lead in the first period. A hard shot to the top corner of the Uxbridge cage in the second frame by Derek Arbuckle made it 5-1. Uxbridge appeared to gain more power as the contest progressed and had the homesters on the run throughout most of the final frame. They outscored Stouffville -0 in the last session. LOCAL RINK WINS HUNTSVILLE BONSPEIL
Stouffville’s Geo. Allison skipped his Unionville rink to the Lake of Bays district championship on Saturday in a three-day bonspiel played at Huntsville. Thirty-two rinks competed from such towns and cities as Peterboro, Lindsay, Barrie, Weston, Orillia, Gravenhurst, Port Carling, Burks Falls, Bracebridge, Haliburton and North Bay. The winning group, comprising Ken Russell, lead; Eldred King, second; Ken Betz, vice and Geo. Allison, skip were presented with the Lough Trophy. Geo. Allison’s rink eliminated Ron Stuart’s Huntsville rink for the honours. Last week, Messrs. Ken Betz and Geo. Allison attended the annual bonspiel at Midland and came home with the runners-up award. UXBRIDGE BEATS JUVENILES 5-3
Two last period goals gave the Uxbridge Juveniles a 5-3 victory over Stouffville on Friday night of last week. Although the local squad iced a full team, they lacked the drive and finish of previous performances. The two clubs were deadlocked 3-3 going into the final frame. Ross Madill, Mike McStravick and Ted Suzuki potted the Stouffville goals. This group is shaping up to be a closely contested battle be tween Stouffville, Uxbridge, Brooklin and Unionville. Brooklin is somewhat weaker than their rivals but will probably improve with continued practice. Unionville showed their scoring power by humbling Uxbridge 7-1 last week. LOCAL JUVENILES TRIM UNIONVILLE BY 5-2 SCORE
Leftwinger Ross Madill ended the winning streak of the Unionville Juveniles when he scored three goal hat trick to give Stouffville a 5-2 victory over the visitors here on Monday night. It marked the first time this season that Unionville have been beaten. Both clubs set a torrid pace and the result was in doubt until the final period. Stouffville held a 1-0 lead in the first frame, but the visitors outscored the homesters in the second session to deadlock the count at 2-2. Three unanswered tallies by Stouffville in the final frame sewed the game up for the local squad. Ross Madill fired the first of his three goals in the first period, after both clubs had battled through eighteen minutes of scoreless hockey. Two fast goals by Unionville in the second session put the visitors out front. Pete Darbyson notched their initial tally with assists going to Johnson and Tidsbury. Gerry McGregor made it 2-1 for the Jets with McArthur picking up an assist. From that point on however, it was strictly Stouffville’s game in the goal- scoring department. Murray Holden broke free at the Unionville blueline and scored a neat goal to even the count at the fifteen minute mark. At 8.35 of the final frame, Ross Madill and Don Haynes teamed up for Stouffville’s winning tally. Madill notched his third marker and the teams fourth goal at 13.00, with mike McStravick picking up an assist. McStravick caromed a drive off a Unionville players shoulder in-to the twine to end the scoring. With only a few minutes remaining in the contest. With temperatures hovering close to the zero mark, the players kept warm by mixing it up on numerous occasions. A total of eighteen penalties were meted out by Unionville official Charlie Cuthbertson. The visitors collected 10 and Stouffville 8. Howard Malcolm spent a total of six minutes in the sin-bin. In the late stages of the contest defenceman Don Haynes was thumbed to the cooler with a minor and a 10 minute misconduct penalty. Dave Winnitoy served three of
Unionville’s ten penalties. In spite of the loss, Unionville looked good. They were especially agile at working the puck out of their own zone, and their 3- way passing plays were well executed. Stouffville took more advantage of their opportunities around the Unionville net. Bud Thomas, guardian of the local cage was at his best and held the fort on many close-in scoring bids. Bud Lehman acted as linesman for the game. HODGKIN LEADS CLIPPERS TO 6-4 WIN OVER MILTON
The Clippers chalked up their seventh victory of the season on Saturday night when they defeated Milton 6-1. The victory moved them to within four points of Beeton and Aurora, who are currently deadlocked on the top rung. Harold Hodgson sewed up the game for Stouffville with a pair of goals in the third period. Single tallies came from the sticks of Frank Hendy, Bud Lehman, Les Clarke and Howard Forgie. Doug Vipond, a new addition to the locals ranks ,picked up a pair of assists to give him a total of four points in two games. Jake Harman also assisted on two tallies. Milton will be the visitors on Stouffville ice on Thursday night of this week. One week from Thursday, Jan. 24th, the league-leading Beeton club will move into town for an important game.

Stouffville jumped into a 2-0 lead in the first period, out-scored the visitors 2-1 in the second frame and kept pace with their rivals with four goals in the final session. Bradford counted one in the second and four in the third. The addition of Tip Vipond to the Stouffville defence bolstered the Clipper rearguard. He fired one marker and assisted on another. The rugged rearguard performed with Brooklin Junior Champions last season and with Stouffville’s Junior club in 1054-55. Defenceman Les Clarke picked up two assists. The homesters looked good in their new uniforms. Each player purchasing his own outfit in order that money donated for that purpose might be turned over to the Gord Lewis Fund. SKATING CLUB

Milton held off a strong Stouffville attack in the final period to edge the Clippers 3-2 in an OHA Intermediate ‘C’ game here on Thursday night of last week. Coach Don McIntosh, yanked goaltender Jack Willis out of the nets in the last minute of play but the locals could not sink the tying tally. The Clippers had a good chance to deadlock the score when Barber of Milton was given a two minute penalty for holding. It took Bruce McDowell only forty-three seconds to put Stouffville out front in the first period with Harold Hodgson and Howard Forgie picking up assists. At 13.28 Milton evened the count with assists going to Thompson and Price. Harold Hodgson made it 2-1 for the Clippers in the second frame but the lead was short-lived as Pollock notched the equalizer a minute later. Patterson fired what proved to be the winner for Milton at 17.17 of the second session. Neither club blinked the light in the final frame. In the penalty department Stouffville players were thumbed to the cooler on seven occasions while Milton performers made only three trips to the sin-bin. BUFFALO TROUNCE LEAFS 12-1, MILLER SCORES 8
The trio of Jimmy Miller, David Copplns and Don Gibson ran wild on Monday night in a Peewee Bantam game as Buffalo trounced the Leafs 12-1. Jim Miller counted eight of the goals and assisted on one other. It was the largest goal production by a single player in the Lions League this season. Don Gibson and Barry McLean each notched a pair. Gibson picked up four assists, Coppins three, and Garry Brown one. Allan Lackey fired the lone Leaf tally on a pass from Roger Forsyth. The win for Buffalo kept them right on the heels of the first place Pittsburg club, who blanked the Canadiens 8-0. Only one point separates the two teams. In other games the Rangers and Red Wings battled to a 1-1 draw, while the last place Bruins edged the Black Hawks 4-3. After dropping the first game of the season last week, Pittsburg bounced back on Monday night to whitewash the Canadiens 8-0. Keith McDowell and Frank Taylor paced the Hornet’s attack each potting two goals. tallies came from the sticks of Allan Anderson, Les Warren, Hendricks and Hamilton it was Pittsburgh’s eighth victory in ten games. They have lost one and tied one. The Canadiens are still in the cellar, one point behind the third place Leafs. The Boston Bruins are presently one of the hottest teams in the Peewee group. On Monday night, they added another victory to their string, to move to within one point of the third place Leafs. Francis Haylow
was once again the top marksman for his club scoring two goals. Arnold Galbraith and
Paul Lintner notched singles. Jim Redshaw and Brian Madill were the Black Hawk marksmen. A goal by Kenny Alda with less than fifteen minutes remaining in the game gave the first place Red Wings a split in the points with the second place Rangers. Larry Taylor fired the lone New York goal. It was the ninth goal of the season for Taylor, the top Ranger marksman. Kenny Aida has notched six. Ross Brown, one of the best Peewee players in the league, was held off the score sheet although he came very close on a number of occasions. Billy Brown performed well in the nets for the Rangers.

The Stouffville Juveniles kept pace with Unionville as they whipped Brooklin 4-2 here on Monday night. The visitors played a much stronger game than on their last appearance here when Stouffville shut them out by a score of 10-0. For the first and second periods it was anybody’s game. Brooklin net- minder Bill Asling kept his club in contention with a fine performance. Bruce Smith working in the nets for Stouffville looked a trifle unsteady at times but his mates gave him good protection. The homesters missed the services of Don Haynes who has not fully recovered from the ankle injury he received at Unionville last week. He was in attendance but did not dress. Murray McDowell opened the scoring for Stouffville at 3.20 of the first period on a pass from Howard Malcolm. Grant Mowbray poked a loose puck over the line less than three minutes later to even the count. Bill Biggs gave the visitors a temporary lead with an unassisted tally at the eight minute mark. Mike McStravick centering the first string trio with Ross Madill and Murray Holden notched Stouffville’s third goal unassisted. His behind-the-net shot hit goalie Asling’s skate and bounded into the twine. Howard Malcolm fired the winner one minute later with assists going to Ted Suzuki and Murray McDowell. Defenceman Don Jackson sewed the contest up for the local crew on a blueline drive at 14.45 of the third period. The Brooklin team iced only eight players and the club ran out of steam in the final frame. The contest was cleanly played. Only one minor skirmish occurred, that coming in the third period. between Don Jackson of Stouffville and Bill Biggs who was involved in the free-for-all that broke out here during the last meeting between the two teams. It was Murray
Holden who shared the penalty on that occasion. Coach Cliff Johnson accompanied his Brooklin proteges here on Monday night and seemed to spark his team in spite of their loss. Murray Holden and Ross Madill were Stouffville’s best. Bud Lehman and Harold Hodgson officiated. BEETON TROUNCES MIDGETS 8-1
Beeton, one of the top-ranking teams in the North York Midget group, soundly trounced Stouffville 8-1 last week. It was the first meeting between the two teams this season. The local squad held their rivals to a 1-1 deadlock in the first period but the winners broke loose with a four goal spree in the second frame to lead 5-1. They added three more in the last period. Glenn Pennanen notched the lone Stouffville tally. Coach Bill Lennox used his two net- minders, Roger Beazley and Ron Mortimer. They each allowed four goals to get by. The defence appeared a trifle weak and were slow in clearing the puck out of their own zone. Bud Watson will be the only player missing from the lineup of the 51-52 Clippers who will play here on Saturday night in the benefit game. Bud has taken up residence in the west where he is now employed. MENS‘ BOWLING LEAGUE

“ If you lack the legs, use your head.” That was the motto that Bob Bangay and ‘52 recruits practiced on Saturday night as they came through with a superb performance in beating the current Clipper club 4-2 in the Gord Lewis Benefit game. In the first period the “old boys” ran into difficulty when they attempted to match their younger rivals stride for stride. In the second and third sessions, however, they reverted to a criss-cross passing attack, that had the 1,000 fans sitting on the edge of their seats. The “comeback club” amazed even their most ardent supporters. Some of the players, who have been off skates for three or four seasons, appeared right at home back in the hockey harness. Morley Petch, the winner of the most popular player award in 1951-52 was one of the best on the ice. The remaining rearguards, Jim Machin, Russ Harper and Bert Baker performed remarkably well considering their lengthy lay off. It is unlikely that Stouffville will ever be able to ice a team that could compare with the Senior champions. We may produce one or two individual stars, but an entire club comprising so many topnotch players is a “dream team” that may never again be realized. Such strength down the centre as we had in Polly Minton, Bob Bangay, Frank Stephenson and Bud Watson was without equal. To these lines add such speedsters as Nick Bangay, Geo. Stark, Hal Gibson, Jack Rumney, Ronnie Bell and Jack Watson and you have the best Senior ‘B’ club in Ontario. The dressing room of the ‘52 Clippers was a bedlam during the between-period rest sessions. Former ardent followers of the team dropped in to say hello and chat with the boys. A number of players complained that the ice surface had been extended since they last played on it, while others felt that once the team received its “second wind”, they would improve. As everyone knows they did improve and their performance was roundly cheered by the large crowd at the
final whistle. Manager Harry Lee, of the current Clippers, was one of the first in the room to thank the players for their support. Bud Lehman dropped in to offer his congratulations. Messrs. Bill Hood, Ken Watson, Ronnie Bell’s father and a number of other followers renewed old acquaintances. Packing their sodden gear away probably for the final time the Clipper champs of 1951-52 added the final chapter to a thrilling hockey history. CHAMPS BEAT ’57 TEAM 4-2BEFORE 1,000 FANS
Bob Bangay’s 1951-52 Senior ‘B’ champions turned in a crowd-pleasing performance on Saturday night to defeat the current 56-57 Clipper club 4-2 before more than 1,000 thrilled spectators. The attendance gave a real boost to the benefit fund and although the up-to-date figure isn’t available it is expected to be well over the $2,000 mark. The two teams were well received by the fans. Mr. Charles Nolan, Master of Ceremonies introduced each player individually as he skated onto the ice and lined up on the blueline. Messrs. Ted Topping and Ken Laushway officiated. Polly Minton centred the first line working between wingers Nick Bangay and Geo. Stark. Frank Stephenson was the pivot performer between Hal Gibson and Jack Rumney. The third line comprised Bob Bangay at centre with Ronnie bell at left wing and Jack Watson at right. Bert Baker, Morley Petch, Bruce Harper and Jim Machin formed the defence. Blake Eatough and Norm Stunden shared the goal- tending chores. The ‘57 Clippers jumped into a 1-0 lead early in the first period on a goal by Bud Lehman. The Stouffville leftwinger uncorked a bullet shot from the blueline that caught the top corner of the net. Five minutes later, Bruce McDowell made it 2-0, shooting the disk into the empty cage, after goalie Eatough had vacated the net to clear a loose puck. At the twelve minute mark the ‘52 Clippers broke the ice. Forwards Ronnie Bell, Bob Bangay and Jack Watson combined on a beautiful three-way play with Watson tipping the disk over the line. The “old
boys” had two additional opportunities to pull up on even terms before the period ended. Hal Gibson raced up the left boards and cut in on the goal only to be blocked by netminder Jack Willis. Bob Bangay worked himself into the clear in the final minute of the frame but his close-in shot was batted aside by goalie Willis. The ‘52 team appeared to gain power in the second period and held the play inside their rivals blueline for a greater portion of the time. The Clipper club ran into a flood of penalties early in the session and with the man advantage, Bob Bangay’s boys stormed in on the net but could not find opening. Nick Bangay found himself in the clear taking a perfect pass from Polly Minton, but the leftwinger, fired the puck into the pads of goalie Geo. Wilkins. At 14.30 Morley Petch hard-working defenceman with the ‘52 champs, picked up a pass from Bob Bangay and sizzled a hard drive into the twine to deadlock the score. Late in the period with frank Stephenson serving a two-minute penalty, Bob Bangay turned in one of his famous puck-ragging efforts hanging onto the disk for the greater portion of a minute. The last period packed all the excitement of a championship final as both clubs strove for the all-important third goal. Midway through the final frame, defenceman Morley Petch bounced the puck off goalie Wilkins’ pads and Ronnie Bell slapped the loose disk into the net for the game-winning tally. Play see-sawed back and forth but the ’57 team found it difficult to penetrate the “old boys” defences. Norm Stunden took over in the net from Blake Eatough but was not overworked. A last- minute gamble by coach Don McIntosh backfired. He yanked goalie Wilkins from the net in favour of an extra forward,
but Ronnie Bell picked his way over the blueline and slid the puck ever the line into the empty cage. At the final whistle the huge crowd gave the winners a rousing ovation for their tremendous one-game comeback effort. The ‘57 Clippers played well and as a team they had a decided edge in speed over their rivals. The champions of ‘52 let their heads replace their legs and when inside the opposition’s blueline were very dangerous on every play. The last period was a 15 minute stop-time session. Gord Lewis, the Stouffville player who suffered a double fracture of his leg on Dec.13th was in attendance at the game. NEWMARKET EDGES MIDGETS 4-3
Stouffville Midgets dropped a close 4-3 decision to Newmarket in a scheduled contest on Friday night of last week. The local squad lacked their usual drive and allowed the Canaltown crew to jump into a 3-0 lead before they could find the range. In remaining two periods, Stouffville outscored the opposition 3-1, but could not notch the tying tally. Roger Stover, Garry Taylor and Glenn Pennanen were the Stouffville marksmen. TOP TEAMS BEAT BOTTOM TEAMS IN PEEWEE GAMES
Monday night’s games in the Peewee and Peewee (Bantam) groups, produced no changes in the standings of the eight clubs. The top teams strengthened their hold on the first and second positions, while the lower clubs slipped farther behind. The contests in the Peewee group were quite close as the Rangers edged the Hawks 1-0 and the Red Wings squeezed out a 2-1 victory over the Bruins. In the Bantam games, Buffalo blanked the Canadiens 6-0 and Pittsburg trounced the Leafs 6-1. The Rangers kept within three points of the first place Detroit team by blanking the Black Hawks 1-0, in the first game on Monday evening. Jim Goudie, leftwinger on the Ranger’s first line, notched the winning goal for New York. Billy Brown chalked up a shutout in the Ranger net. Billy Payne, leading marksman with the Black Hawks, was kept well checked throughout the game and couldn’t add to his total. He has scored 7 goals so far this season. Ross Brown once again led his Red Wings to victory, as he fired two goals to beat the Bruins 2-1. Murray Arksey scored the lone Boston tally. Ross Brown’s first goal was unassisted but the second came on a pass from Jim Hill. Ross Brown now has scored a total of 18 goals, only one less than Francis Haylow of Boston. Haylow was held off the score sheet on Monday night. Garry Brown and Barry McLean each scored a pair of goals as Buffalo blanked the Canadiens 6-0 in a Peewee Bantam contest. Joe Norton and Jim Miller fired singles. Blair Wagg, Barry McLean and Jim Miller picked up assists. Warren Hendricks boosted his season’s goal production to 16 by scoring four tallies on Monday night as the Pittsburg Hornets defeated the Maple Leafs 6-1. Linemate Keith James notched two. Frank Taylor and Wayne Hamilton each picked up one assist. Larry Spang scored the lone Leaf goal. The Peewee and Peewee (Bantam) players are reminded that all games have been moved ahead one hour for Monday evening, Feb. 4th. The first game will start at five o’clock. It will be the second Young Canada Night to be held in the arena this season and another minor hockey game will be played at nine o’clock when the Peewee games are completed. This switch in time will be for Monday evening, Feb. 4th only. The following week the regular time will go back into effect. JUVENILES RALLY TO BEAT JETS 5-3
Stouffville’s Juvenile team staged a four-goal third period rally to defeat the Unionville Jets 5-3 here on Monday night. It was the first game in a home and home series between the two rivals. The visitors notched three unanswered goals in the first period on goals by Rose, McGregor and Petit. They were held off the score sheet however, for the rest of the contest as Stouffville fired five goals in a row. Ross Madill broke the ice for the homesters in the second frame, on passes from Murray Holden and Mike McStravick. Moving into the final frame, defenceman Don Jackson made it 3-2 with an unassisted tally. Murray Holden evened the score from Jackson and Howard Malcolm fired the winner with Steve Wideman picking up an assist. Don Haynes sewed the contest up for Stouffville with an unassisted goal.
There were nine penalties in the game, four to Stouffville and five to the Jets. Howard Malcolm, Don Jackson, Steve Wideman and Sundquist served time in the cooler. Ross Beckett, Little and Winnitoy (2) were thumbed the penalty box for the Jets. CLIPPERS TAKE BEETON 6-2 IN SEASON’S BEST GAME
The Stouffville Clippers looking like real contenders for the group honours on Thursday night as they whipped Beeton 6-2. It was by far the best game here this season. The entire club gave an all-out effort checking their opposition on every move. The addition of Tip Vipond, ex-Junior defenceman, has added much-needed strength to the Clipper’s rearguard. Aside from turning aside numerous Beeton rushes, he picked up an assist on a Stouffville goal in the second period. It was his fifth point in four games. The Clippers had a 2-0 advantage at the end of the first period. Defenceman Alex Wilkins drove a blueline shot into the twine with assists going to Frank Hendy and Bud Lehman. Lehman standing on the edge crease, blocked the Beeton netminder’s view as the disk caught the far corner. At 11.15 Howard Forgie picked up the first of his two goals on a dose-in shot with newcomer, Don Gibson assisting. O’Leary of Beeton was serving a two minute penalty at the time. The second frame, Stouffville outscored their rivals 2-1. Frank Hendy lengthened the Clipper lead on passes from Russ Forfar and Bud Lehman. Howard Forgie made it 4-0 with Tip Vipond assisting. Beeton broke the ice at 12.41 on a goalmouth scramble. Don Letts potted the tally after goalie Jack Willis had batted aside two previous shots. The Clippers lapsed into slow motion for the first minute of the final frame and Beeton promptly batted the rubber into the twine. Ken Kelly blinked the twine for the visitors. Harold Hodgson sewed the contest up for the homesters four minutes later with assists going to Don Gibson and Howard Forgie. Bruce McDowell broke free at the Beeton blueline and slipped a lovely goal behind netminder, Cairns to end the scoring in the game. Les Clarke picked up a point on the tally. The contest packed plenty of excitement from the drop of the puck. Aside from the performance of defenceman Tip Vipond, Russ Forfar, Joe Lewis and Bruce McDowell were Stouffville’s best. It was the third straight loss for Beeton. The victory kept the homesters hot on the trail of their rivals who have slipped out of first place into the second rung on the group ladder. Aurora’s Bel Aires are leading the pack. JUVENILES RALLY TO TIE BROOKLIN 2-2
Unionville gained a temporary hold on the first place position in the local Juvenile group as Stouffville settled for a 2-2 tie with Brooklin on Thursday night. Jack Watson’s squad were forced to battle from behind in the third period, as they trailed 2-0 going into the final frame. Howard Malcolm and Murray Holden blinked the light to divide the points. The locals were without the services of leftwinger speedster, Ross Madill and his absence was felt by the club. Don Haynes returned to action after a one week layoff due to an injured ankle. Howard Malcolm moved up to the first line with McStravick and Holden. Eddie Sanders completed the McDowell, Suzuki trio. Bud Thomas guarded the Stouffville net. FISHERMEN REPORT GOOD CATCHES AT LAKE SIMCOE
A number of local fishermen have been making regular trips to Lake Simcoe to try their luck at catching white fish and trout through the ice. Messrs. Art Weldon, Elgin Wagg, Murray Daniels, Edwin Byer, Bob
Snowball and others report good luck so far this winter. A number of white fish have been caught which weighed 3 1/2 pounds. A few trout have also been caught weighing as much as 9 pounds. The ice on Lake Simcoe is approximately fifteen inches in depth. Interest in this winter sport has been increasing annually. At the present time there are close to 3,000 huts on the lake and it is thought that the number will rise above the 3,100 recorded in 1956. At one particular location, the huts are so numerous that there is barely enough room to drive a car be tween them. JUVENILES SPLIT WITH JETS IN HOME AND HOME SERIES
The Stouffville and Unionville Juveniles split their home and home series on Monday and Tuesday evenings, each club winning in their own rink. Here on Monday, the local club took a 5-3 victory but at Unionville the Jets swept to a 5-1 win. The Unionville victory moved the Jets back into first place, one point in front of Stouffville. On Tuesday night, the Stouffville squad looked like mere ghosts of the team that had handed out decisive defeats to other clubs in the group earlier in the season. The Jets out- skated their rivals throughout the game and held a 5-0 lead at one point in the contest. Stouffville appeared satisfied to let Unionville carry the play to them. The forwards did little forechecking and allowed the Jets to organize their plays at will. Mike Pettit paced the Unionville attack, firing two goals. Single tallies came from the sticks of Derry Rose, John Little and Bruce Holdsworth. Ross Madill potted Stouffville’s lone goal on a pass from Mike McStravick. Keith Sutherland of Stouffville and Geo. Carey of Unionville officiated. The Jets moved into a 1-0 lead at 13.50 of the first period. Derry Rose blinked the light on a pass from Allan Tidsbury. Mike Pettit and John Little scored in that order in the second frame to give the homesters3a-0 advantage. In the final frame, the Jets outscored Stouffville 2-1. Bruce Holdsworth made it 4-0 unassisted and Mike Pettit and John Little combined for the fifth Unionville tally. With two minutes remaining in the contest, Mike McStravick passed the puck out in front of the Jet’s cage and Madill promptly fired it home to spoil goalie Jim Lott’s shutout attempt. Bruce smith guarded the net for Stouffville. With the exception of Mike Pettit’s first goal, the local netminder could not be blamed for the loss. Jim Lott in the Unionville cage turned in a fine performance although erratic shooting by Stouffville forwards aided his efforts. Jim Johnston turned in a good game on the Jets defence. In an effort to put some spark in the Stouffville’s attack, coach Jack Watson moved rearguard Don Haynes up to the forward line in the third period but he failed get any direct shots on the net. There were ten penalties handed out by referee Sutherland, three to Stouffville and seven to Unionville.

The new $1,100 electric sports-timer was installed in the Stouffville Arena on Saturday morning. The timepiece, purchased from a Oshawa manufacturer, was erected at the east end of the rink and may be seen from almost any angle. It measures 8 feet in height and 6 feet in width. The 24-wire control
panel is located in the press box above the Stouffville player’s bench. The time, the period and the score are recorded and the clock is completely foolproof since the hands cannot be moved in the reverse direction. BANTAMS DROP PLAYOFF OPENER TO PORT PERRY 3-1
Port Perry noted for their playoff prowess proved true to form on Monday night when they defeated Stouffville 3-1. It was the first game in a round-robin series for the group championship. Uxbridge is also in the local league. Derek Arbuckle notched the lone tally for the Stouffville club. The two teams will meet again here on Thursday night at seven o’clock. The contest is a must game for Stouffville if they wish to remain in the series. AURORA BEL AIRIES TROUCE CLIPPERS 12-3
Showing a complete reversal of form from their game with Beeton one week ago, the Clippers ran aground here on Thursday night and were soundly trounced by Aurora 12-3. The visitors out-hustled the local club in every period and were worthy victors on the night’s play. The Stouffville defence became goal-hungry on different occasions and the Bel Aires took advantage of the Clippers wide open rearguard to break into the clear time and time again. Their pass-up-the-centre style of play paid off in goals and gave netminder Jack Willis little chance to hold the fort. Although the homesters had some fine scoring chances which, perhaps, with a little luck might have resulted in goals, the majority of their shots were off the net or were so weak they wouldn’t break a pane of glass. Howard Bullock, an ex-clipper and Walt Fines paced the Aurora attack, each notching three goals. Ortie Thoms fired a pair with singles coming from the sticks of Grant Edwards, Jim Patton, Don Gibson and Phil Nicholas. Joe Lewis potted a pair for the Clippers and Les Clarke scored one. The Yonge Street crew held a 4-0 lead at the end of the first period. They outscored the locals 4-2 in the second frame and added four goals to Stouffville’s one in the final session. The game was never in doubt after the opening period and as the contest progressed it was just a matter of “how many” as far as the Bel Aires were concerned. Aurora counted their second tally with defenceman Andy Closs in the penalty box. They came very close to notching another tally while short-handed but goalie Jack Willis sprawled to make the stop when Phil Nicholas broke into the clear. Although the contest was a rather hard-hitting affair, only six penalties were handed out by the official, four to Aurora and two to Stouffville. Frank Hendy was Stouffville’s only star in the one-sided contest. He performed well at centre ice although he failed to score any goals. He picked up one assist BUFFALO KNOCKS HORNETS FROM PEEWEE LEAD
Pittsburgh’s reign atop the Peewee Bantam group came to a sudden end on Monday evening as Buffalo handed them a 3-1 setback and replaced them on top of the heap. Pittsburg, who have led the league throughout most of the season, could not match the scoring power of their rivals. Prior to Monday’s contest, the Hornets had lost only one of their last twelve games. They had one tie. In other contests, the Maple Leafs downed the Canadiens 3-1; Boston edged the Rangers 3-2 and the Wings and Hawks battled a to a 4-4 tie. It was the second Young Canada Night to be staged at the arena this season and was held in conjunction with the Minor Hockey Week, which is being observed right across Canada. Allan Anderson scored the Hornet’s only goal as his team suffered a 3-1 setback in the final game on Monday night. It was the least number of goals notched by the usually high-scoring Pittsburg club this season. Buffalos tallies were divided among three players, Joe Norton, Clifford Reynolds and Garry Brown Barry McLean and Garry Yates picked up assists on the first and third goals. The Maple Leafs lengthened their lead over the cellar dwelling Canadiens by beating the Montreal club 3-1. As in the other game the winners goals were evenly distributed among three players, Roger Forsyth scored the first tally from Allan Lackey and Bert Vizely blinked the light on a pass from Bruce Browning. Allan Lackey,, one of the top marksmen on the Leaf team, sewed the game up for his team with a goal. Larry Spang picked up an assist on their final tally. Murray Painter scored the only goal for the Canadiens Although the Rangers put on last-minute drive in an effort to tie up their game, the Bruin’s managed to squeeze out a 3-2 victory and move to within two points of second place. With less than a minute remaining in the game, Ranger netminder Billy Brown was pulled from the cage in favour of an extra forward but goalie Laurie Buckland held the fort. Ronnie Castle was the sixth Ranger forward on the ice and although he had a couple of good chances he couldn’t find an opening in goalie Buckland’s pads. Francis Haylow notched two tallies and Holt scored one. Each player also picked up one assist. Larry Taylor fired the Ranger goal on a pass from Jim Goudie and Ted Winterfield notched their final goal with only three minutes left in the game. The last place Black Hawks pulled a real surprise by holding the first place Red Wings to a 4-4 tie. The one point for Chicago moved into a third place tie with the Bruins and only two points out of the second position. Ken Fockler and Brian Madill each fired a pair of goals for the Hawks and each picked up one assist. Leonard Blacklock counted an assist on the Hawks first tally. Ross Brown paced the Wings attack scoring two goals. Teddy Redshaw and Keith Betz notched singles. Jim Hill picked up one assist. RALLY FALLS SHORT, MIDGETS LOSE TO AURORA 10-5
Displaying a startling reversal of form in the third period, the local Midgets outscored their Aurora rivals 5-1 in the final frame. The attempted rally came too late, however, as the Yonge Street crew had chalked up a 9-0 lead in the first and second periods. The visitors notched one tally in the last session. In the opening period, Larry Wood fired a pair of goals and Stanley Rutledge notched one to give Aurora a 3-0 advantage. The Yonge Street squad struck for six unanswered tallies in the second frame. Leon DeCaire potted a pair with singles coming from the sticks of Ted Murrell, Ron Walker, Mike Patrick and Stan Rutledge.
In the final frame, Stouffville took over in the scoring department and rattled in five goals. It took Norm Hendricks only 15 seconds to break the ice with an unassisted tally and Rick Wedseltoft combined with Glenn Pennanen for the homesters second goal. With Garry Taylor of Stouffville serving a penalty, Rick Wedseltoft battled in his second marker of the night with Norm Hendricks picking up an assist. At 7.29 Norm Hendricks grabbed a loose puck at centre ice and split the Aurora defence for the game’s neatest goal. Rick Wedseltoft completed the hat trick performance with his third with his third goal at 12.30. Larry Wood notched his club’s only tally in the last period, a three-goal effort for the Aurora front-line star.

The local lads wished their victors the best of luck in future games as they move into further Ontario playoff competition. HAT TRICK HELPS BANTAMS WIN 5-0
Bob Lehman, Stouffville’s utility man on the Bantam team, turned in the hat trick with a three-goal performance against Uxbridge on Friday night. Stouffville banked their rivals 5-0. The win left them tied with Port Perry for the group honours and forced a two-game goals-to-count series for the championship. Lehman, who performs equally well on either the defence or forward line, broke the game wide open with his light-blinking spree on Friday. Larry Malloy pulled out of his scoring slump to pot a pair. Uxbridge’s big line of Bob Bradbury, Garry Elson and Garry Geer were checked off their feet and failed to count a single tally. This trio is considered to be the best frontline threesome in the group. PEEWEE TIE UXBRIDGE 1-1
Stouffville’s Peewee team, coached by Bud Lehman, journeyed to Uxbridge on Thursday evening for an exhibition tilt. The local entry split the points with their Uxbridge rivals play-Ing to a 11 tie. Jim Miller was the marksman for Stouffville potting his teams only tally at the nine minute mark of the second period. Roger Forsyth and Barry McLean picked up assists on the goal. Four minutes later, Jerry Harrison blinked the light for the opposition to even the count. Neither club could score in the last period. BANTAMS ARE GROUP CHAMPIONS, MEET UNIONVILLE
The Stouffville Bantams whipped Port Perry in their own backyard on Saturday afternoon 4-1, then held the opposition to a 2-2 tie here on Monday night to capture the goals-to-count- round and the group championship. They now move on into the Ontario playdowns. Unionville will be their next opponents.
Stouffville 2, Port 2
On Monday evening, the homesters playing before a fine turn out of vociferous supporters, came from behind in the third period to hold Port Perry to a 2-2 draw. The tie coupled with a 4-1 win on Saturday, gave Stouffville the round, 6 goals to 3. The trio of Lynn McMullen, Larry McMullen and Derek Arbuckle paced the locals attack in Monday’s contest. Each of the three forwards figured in the scoring. Larry McMullen combined with brother Lynn to put Stouffville out front at 3.15 of the first period. At the ten minute mark, the visitors evened the count. Fred Beare beating goalie Glenn Jackson. Port Perry forged into the lead in the second frame. Fred Beare was the trigger man the Scugog crew pressed their attack into the Stouffville zone on numerous occasions and only some fine netminding by goalie Glenn Jackson kept his team in the game. Stouffville also had some excellent opportunities to blink the light but the majority of their shots were either too weak or inaccurate. At 05 of the last period, Derek Arbuckle backhanded a Texas Leaguer from inside the Port blueline and the puck floated over the head of goalie, Ken Boyd and lodged inside the net. Grant Foreman turned a good game at centre ice
on the second line, being especially effective when his team were shorthanded. Leftwinger Derek Arbuckle spent the greater portion of the last period in the cooler after being tagged with a minor and 10-minute misconduct penalty.
Stouffville 4, Port 1
Stouffville practically sewed up the group championship on Saturday afternoon when they handed Port Perry a 4-1 setback in their own rink. Both clubs battled through a scoreless first period but the locals
jumped into a 2-0 lead in the middle session. Derek Arbuckle fired a low corner shot into the bottom of the cage. early in the second period with assists going to Larry McMullen and Roger Stover. Arbuckle blinked the light again with a hard high drive to the top corner of the cage with Williard Peddie picking up an assist. Jim Burnett cut down the Stouffville lead early in the final frame with a bullet shot from the blueline that slipped past goalie Jackson’s gloved hand. Stouffville wrapped up the game, however in the remaining minutes on tallies by Larry Malloy and Lynn McMullen. Leftwinger Derek Arbuckle had an excellent opportunity to notch the hat trick when he broke free from centre ice and skated in alone on the Port net. His shot bounced harmlessly off goalie Carnegie’s pads. Harold Jeffrey of Port Perry and Don Jackson of Stouffville officiated in both games. TOP TEAMS WIN OVER TAIL-ENDERS IN LION HOCKEY
The top teams climbed higher and the bottom clubs dropped lower following Monday night’s Peewee games in the arena. Although the first and second place Red Wings and Rangers chalked up wins, they had to work hard for their victories over the third and fourth place Bruins and Hawks. In the older lad’s group, first place Buffalo trounced fourth place Montreal 5-1, while second place Pittsburg whipped the third place Maple Leafs 6-1. In the other games the Wings downed the Bruins 3-1 and the Rangers edged the Black Hawks 3-2.
Wings 3, Bruins 1
Single goals by Keith Betz, Jeff Burkholder and Jim Hill gave the Red Wings enough tallies to score a 3-1 win over the Bruins. Murray Arksey notched the lone Boston goal on a pass from Wayne Crowder. Two of the top marksmen in the league, Ross Brown of the Wings and Francis Haylow of the Bruins were held off the score sheet for the first time in a number of games. Ross Brown picked up one assist. David James and Keith Betz also collected assists on the Wings’ first two tallies. The Detroit victory kept them riding high atop the group, six points in front of the second place Rangers.
Rangers 3, Hawks 2
A two goal rally by the Black Hawks in the late stages of their game wasn’t quite- enough to overhaul the lead built up by the Rangers. The Hawks were edged 3-2 in a close contest. Some fine goaltending by Rangers’ Billy Brown kept New York in the game. Blair Wagg was the winners’ leading marksman, firing two of his team’s three goals. Jim Goudie potted the other on a pass from Larry Taylor. Jim Redshaw equalled the goal production of Blair Wagg, also scoring twice. Brian Madill picked up an assist on his last goal.
Buffalo 5, Canadiens 1
Buffalo had a rather easy time defeating the Canadiens in the Bantam group. Jim Malloy paced the winners to victory, firing a pair of goals. Single tallies came from the sticks of Barry McLean, Jim Miller and Cliff Reynolds. Garry Gall scored Montreal’s only goal with Stanley Feasby picking up an assist.
Pittsburg 6, Leafs 1
Pittsburgh’s production trio of Keith James, Warren Hendricks and Wayne Hamilton notched five of the Hornets six goals to trounce the Leafs 6-1. Warren Hendricks and Wayne Hamilton each potted a pair and Keith James scored one. Frank Taylor and Les Lye combined for the other Hornet tally. Warren Hendricks and Wayne Hamilton each picked up two assists. Pat Middlemiss fired the lone Leaf goal unassisted. Next week there will be an important game in the Peewee Bantam group when Pittsburg and Buffalo meet in a crucial contest. A win for the Hornets would move them back into first place one point in front of Buffalo. A victory for Buffalo would lengthen their lead atop the group. The playoffs will likely begin sometime during the early part of March. MENS’ BOWLING

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas ONLY CHOICE
The Park Board, meeting in special session on Monday evening, made their choice for the site of the new swimming pool. it will be located south of the present baseball field, on the site of the old arena. According to reports, the decision was almost unanimous, with one abstention. I believe the site is an ideal location for the pool. The problem has been batted around for the past two months and the Park Board decided this week that a final decision would be reached immediately. The location of the pool presented the Park Board with a real problem. They were desirous to act in the best interests of the residents. In a project of this type it is hard to arrive at a decision without “stepping on somebody’s toes.” The Horticultural Society was not happy to see their project removed but Mr. Latcham, who is donating the pool to the park, has promised that every effort will be made to save the permanent shrubs, trees and plants and relocate them at a later date. One must take a long-range and broad-minded view of this project. Other towns and villages would make many sacrifices in order to obtain such a gift. IN THE RUNNING
Our four hockey teams are still in the running, two in group competition and two in the Ontario playoffs. The Clipper are rolling along at a good clip now and appear headed toward the group finals. They whipped Richmond Hill la two straight games, the second contest being a one-sided tilt. Aurora, the strongest team in the group throughout the regular schedule, has had trouble with Milton, a team that did not chalk up an enviable record during the season. The Clippers admittedly are a hot and cold club. They appear to play their best hockey away from home and for some unknown reason they have turned in some eye-pleasing performances before the non-partisan fans in the foreign rinks. Here, at home, their showing for the most part has been mediocre, but the fans are confident that when the chips are down they will come through. The Juveniles and Bantams are attracting almost as much interest as the Intermediates these days, due to their current success in the Ontario playoffs. Both clubs have now reached the quarter-finals. Their next opposition is Havelock. Both teams are “Cinderella” entries. The Juveniles were organized at a late date, when the majority of other teams were ready to start their regular schedules. The Bantams were considered to be only over-grown Peewee players who would never emerge from their own group. They have fooled the experts, however and have done amazingly well. Much of the credit for both teams’ success must go to their coaches, Keith Sutherland and Jack Watson. Don Davis, Manager of both clubs, has done yeoman service for our entire minor hockey organization from the Juveniles down to the Peewees. The midgets, although a little disappointing, are still in competition for the North York group championship. They were knocked out of the Ontario playdowns by a superior Beeton club. Well, that’s how our hockey teams stand at the present time. Every week they remain in the running they move one step closer to an All-Ontario championship. We don’t intend to make any rash predictions, we’ll just sit tight and keep our fingers crossed. PAYING OFF
Perhaps now we are seeing some results of our Lions Peewee Hockey League. Two of our minor entries have reached the quarter finals of the Ontario playdowns. The majority of these players received training through the ranks of our Peewee group. Last year, the Bantam team reached the Ontario semi-finals and these boys also were proteges of our Lions Peewee organization. I am confident that the training these boys receive in the peewee competition gives them a decided advantage when they merge into Bantam and Midget ranks. It is true that a small percentage of our peewee graduates will continue on in organized hockey, but some of the lads have a natural ability, which along with a minimum of training makes them a “cinch” for a berth on the Bantam club. CLIPPERS BEAT HILL 6-5, 12-5
The Stouffville Clippers edged Richmond Hill 6-5 here on Thursday night, then stepped onto their oppositions home ice and trounced the Yonge Street crew by a score of 12-5, on Friday evening. The double victory knocked Richmond Hill out of further playoff competition and allows Stouffville to move on into the round-robin semifinals.
Stouffville 6, Richmond Hill 5
Outscoring the visitors 3-1 in the second period proved to be the difference in Thursday night’s opener as the Clippers squeezed out a 6-5 victory in the first round of the group playoffs with Richmond Hill. Harold Hodgson, Alex Wilkins and Jake Harmon lit the light in that order in the centre session while the Yonge Street squad were held to a single tally. Howard Forgie had put Stouffville out front 1-0 at 6.55 of the first period with assists going to Bud Lehman and Harold Hodgson. Av Jenson tied it up at 18.15 Harold Hodgson, the big gun in the Stouffville attack throughout the two-game series, made it 2-1 at 8.42 from Vipond and Forgie but the persistent visitors tied the score two minutes later with Ev Jenson once again hitting the target. Wilkins from McDowell at 16.26 and Harman unassisted made it 4-2 for the Clippers at the end of the second period. It took Bud Lehman only 3 minutes to light the lamp early in the final frame but the “Diamonds” made it 5-3 with Paul Foy bulging the twine. Ten seconds later Wally Stothers made it 5-4 before Bud Lehman notched the clincher at 7.03 from Hodgson. Norm Roberts fired the Hill’s fifth and final goal at 16.25. The Clippers held the fort for the remaining minutes to wrap up the important win. There were only four penalties in the game, three to Richmond Hill and one to Stouffville. Stouffville’s new “punch” line of Hodgson, Lehman and Forgie figured in four of the teams six goals. Bud Lehman notched two goals and picked up one assist; Harold Hodgson scored one and assisted on three while Howard Forgie potted a single and picked up two assists.
Stouffville 12, Richmond Hill 5
A rash of goals by first-line forward Harold Hodgson paced the Clippers to a one-sided victory over Richmond Hill on Friday night. The 12-5 win ousted the Yonge Street crew from further playoff competition. Hodgson fired 6 goals and assisted on two to lead the local squad into the round-robin semifinals. Bud Lehman, Alex Wilkins, Bruce McDowell, Frank Hendy and Howard Forgie were the other marksmen for the Clippers. The Stouffville “punch line” of Harold Hodgson, Bud Lehman and Howard Forgie picked up a total of 21 points on the night’s play. The total might have been increased but poor ice hampered Stouffville’s attack. They play Beeton here on Thursday night. BANTAMS WHIP UNIONVILLE TO ENTER NEXT ONT. PLAYDOWNS
The Stouffville Bantams paced by the McMullen brothers, Lynn and Larry, romped to an 8-1 Vic tory over Jack Dawkin’s Unionville club on Thursday afternoon to win the round by 11 goals to 3. The homesters now move on into the second Ontario playoff series. They meet Havelock, playing there on Thursday and back here on Saturday evening at 7.00 o’clock. Unionville could not match the local’s scoring power. Paced by the McMullen brothers, Lynn and Larry, Stouffville jumped into a 2-0 lead in the first period and sewed up the contest and the series with three tallies in each of the following frames. Lynn and Larry each potted a pair. Single goals came from the sticks of Bob Lehman, Roger Stover, Joe Herold and Grant Foreman. Bill Johnson notched the lone tally for Unionville with Ken Beckett and Richard Conlin picking up assists on the play. Larry McMullen opened the scoring at 6.45 on a pass from leftwinger Derek Arbuckle. Four minutes later, he duplicated his previous effort with Roger Stover assisting. At 1.30 of the second frame Lynn McMullen blinked the light from Bob Lehman to give the homesters a 3-0 lead. Lehman lengthened Stouffville’s advantage to four goals with an unassisted tally through the period. Bill Johnson broke the ice for Unionville at 12.15 but Roger Stover cancelled his goal on a pass from Lynn McMullen. The final frame saw Stouffville notch three unanswered goals. Lynn McMullen fired his second of the night from Derek Arbuckle and Roger Stover and Joe Herold hit the twine at 7.47 for Stouffville’s seventh goal. Hard-working Grant Foreman potted the picture tally of the game from Larry Malloy to complete the scoring in the contest. There were only three penalties in the game, two to Stouffville and
one to Unionville. Larry Malloy was thumbed for high sticking and Derek Arbuckle received a two-minute stint in the cooler for playing with a broken stick. Ross Kennedy of Unionville was banished for two minutes for interference. SPLIT WITH WOODBRIDGE, JUVENILES WIN ROUND 9-7
A four goal lead built up by Jack Watson’s Juvenile team in the opening game of their All- Ontario playdowns against Woodbridge carried them through to the quarter finals in spite of a 5-3 loss in the return contest on the following night. Ross Madill, the locals’ shifty leftwinger, was the hero of the two-game series. The speedy forward collected six of the nine tallies counted by the winners, four in the opener and two in the return match. Stouffville won their game here on Thursday evening by a score
of 6-2. Less than sixty seconds had ticked by in the first period when Madill batted Murray Holden’s goalmouth pass into the Woodbridge net. Midway through the session, Madill struck again with centreman Mike McStravick picking up an assist on the goal. Olderkirk notched the visitors lone goal in the second frame. Howard Malcolm, Stouffville’s utility forward defenceman blinked the light for what proved to be the winning tally. Ted Suzuki picked up an assist on the goal. In the final frame Stouffville outscored their rivals 3-1. Ross Madill fired his third and fourth goals and Murray Holden potted one. Mike McStravick, Don Haynes and Sundquist picked up points in the assist department. Robb counted the lone goal for Woodbridge.
Woodbridge 5, Stouffville 3
A late-game rally by Wood-bridge in the third period on Friday night fell short. Although they chalked up a 5-3 victory, they lost the round by nine goals to seven. Stouffville held the opposition in check until the late minutes of the contest when they broke out with a pair. As in the previous game Ross Madill was the top marksman, firing two of the teams three tallies. Don Haynes clouted a single. The contest was a rough and rugged tilt. Don Jackson was the club’s only injury but he is expected back in the next playoff round. The Juveniles journey to Havelock on Thursday with the return contest back here on Saturday night at nine o’clock. BANTAM, JUVENILES REACH ONTARIO QUARTER-FINALS
Stouffville’s Bantam and Juvenile teams have reached the Ontario quarter-final playoffs. Both clubs will play havelock, the first game scheduled for Thursday. As we go to press, Thursday’s opener at Havelock is doubtful since the town has a natural ice rink arena. If the mild weather continues, they may play their home games at Maracora. The winner of the Stouffville-Havelock Bantam series will meet Beeton who are idle at the present time. A winner from the London district group will meet either New Hamburg or Port Dover. This winner will then meet the Western Ontario Association champion. Either Stouffville, Havelock or Beeton will meet the winner of that series for the championship. The winner of the Stouffville- Havelock Juvenile series will play either Elora or Norwich. In another playoff series, the winner of Forest and Cope town will meet the Western Ontario Association winner. Either Stouffville, Havelock, Elora or Norwich will then battle either Forest, Cope town or the representative team from Western Ontario for the All-Ontario honours. BUFFALO AND PITTSBURGH BATTLE TO 3-3 TIE IN PEEWEE LEAGUE
The rivalry between the two top teams in the Lions Peewee Bantam group reached its height on Monday evening when Pittsburg and Buffalo clashed in a battle for first place. But also retained its one point edge however. as the clubs played to a 3-3 draw. In the other contests the Bruins blanked the Rangers 3-0. The Red Wings defeated the Black Hawks 6-1 and the Leafs edged the Canadiens 2-1.
Buffalo 3, Pittsburg 3
The two top clubs in the group, Pittsburg and Buffalo turned in their tightest game of the season. The six tallies counted by the two clubs were evenly split among six separate players. Gary Yates, David Coppins and Clifford Reynolds were the Buffalo marksmen. Keith McDowell, Warren Hendricks and Frank Taylor blinked the light for the Hornets. Five of the six goals were unassisted. Warren Hendricks picked up an assist on Keith McDowell’s marker. It would now appear likely that the positions of the clubs in the Peewee Bantam group will remain unchanged, unless the Leafs can come up with a surprise win over Buffalo next week. The regular schedule will be completed on Monday night and the teams will enter a round-robin playoff.
Leafs 2, Canadiens 1
The Leafs extended their over the cellar-dwelling Canadiens by edging their rivals 2-1 in the final game of the night. Bert Vizely was the winner’s top marksman, firing both goals. Bob Smith picked up an assist on the one tally. Lloyd Gayman potted Canadiens single goal.
Bruins 3, Rangers 0
Bruins goalie Laurie Buckland chalked up another shut-out on Monday evening as his team blanked the Rangers 3-0. New York lacked their usual drive on the first and second lines and allowed the winners to hold a big edge in the play. Arnold Galbraith, leftwinger on a line with Joe Holt and Francis Haylow fired two of the three Boston goals. Francis Haylow scored one. He also picked up two assists. Laurie Buckland is holding the Rangers off the score sheet and made some good stops although most of the shots were either very weak or off the target.
Wings 6, Hawks 1
The most one-sided game of the night was between the Red Wings and Black Hawks. Ed Dawson’s squad trounced the Hawks 6-1. Ted Redshaw and Keith Betz led the winners, each scoring two goals. Ross Brown and Ken Aida scored singles. Leonard Blacklock blinked the light from Billy Farthing for the Hawks lone tally. LADIES‘ BOWLING

Mr. Couse also enjoys the sport although he never enters into competition. TROUBLE AVERTED
The management o the Stouffville Juvenile team can thank their lucky stars that the new electric sports -timer was installed in the arena this winter. As Havelock potted the would be winning goal in the Stouffville net on Saturday night, the buzzer was ringing announcing the end of the game. A real rhubarb could have developed if the old-style time-piece had still been in use. As it was a few questions were asked but the argument was short-lived. A TENSE SERIES
It would appear that minor hockey has finally come into its own here in Stouffville. The Bantam-Juvenile double-header on Saturday night attracted close to 500 fans, the largest crowd to attend a scheduled game here this season. The fans were not disappointed. Even the performance of our Bantam team surprised the spectators and the Juvenile contest packed more thrills than any game played here this winter. Perhaps the fans are beginning to realize just how good our minor hockey is here. It must be admitted that the boys give the game everything they’ve got and that’s all one should expect. In the recently concluded Havelock-Stouffville Bantam series, the clean sportsmanlike conduct of both teams was one of the features. The officials both at Havelock and here in Stouffville kept the contest well in hand and although a number of penalties were meted out they were all for minor offences. Stouffville showed true sportsmanship at the final whistle on Saturday night by extending congratulations to the winners. Havelock had a nice club headed by their two ace forwards, Ron Rutherford and Keith Kirk. Like Stouffville, it appeared that the management of the Havelock team had outlawed all rough play and this contributed to a better series. The same type of hockey is also true of the Juveniles. Unnecessary penalties are taboo with Coach Jack Watson and he has done a fine job of promoting this idea among his players. Don’t think this Juvenile club can’t play it rough and rugged, because they can, but they realize that penalties in playoff competition can be costly. CLIPPERS EDGE BEETON 3-2, HARMON GETS GOAL
Jake Harman was the hero of Thursday night’s semi-final round-robin playoff opener with Beeton, as he scored what proved to be the winning goal. The Clippers edged their rivals 3-2. Bruce McDowell put Stouffville out front at 2.16 of the first period with defenceman Les Clarke picking up an assist. Harold Hodgson made it 2-0 at 17.51. Beeton pulled back on even terms with the Clippers as Whelan and Broley blinked the light in the second frame at the 8.30 mark. Jake Harman potted the winner on a goalmouth pass from Harold Hodgson. Stouffville had numerous chances to lengthen their lead on the visitors, especially in the third period when Beeton ran into a number of penalties. On one occasion they were two men short but managed to hold Stouffville off the score sheet. Beeton had nine penalties and Stouffville had four. Bud Lehman of the Clippers was banished from the contest early in the final frame with a game misconduct for arguing too strenuously with the referee. Bruce McDowell and Harold Hodgson contacted the other penalties for the homesters. JUVENILES REPLAY SERIES, DOUBLEHEADER ON THURSDAY
On Thursday evening of this week, another doubleheader hockey match will be featured in the Stouffville arena. In the first game commencing at 6.45 p.m. the Stouffville Juveniles will battle Havelock. In the second game of the Ontario quarter final playoffs. The local club takes a five goal lead into the contest,
winning at Havelock on Tuesday night 6-1. At 9 p.m. Stouffville’s Intermediate ‘C’ team will meet Aurora in their round-robin group semi-final. They divided their home and home series with Beeton, winning 3-2 and losing 7-5. A win here on Thursday night would almost assure them of a birth in the group finals. Aurora blanked Milton 9-0 on Tuesday night to enter the semi-finals. The Stouffville-Havelock Juvenile series is being replayed since both teams were dead- locked following their initial start. JUVENILES PLAYOFFS TIED UP AFTER TWO GAMES
Mr. Jim Austin, Executive member of the OMHA has ordered the Stouffville and Havelock Juveniles to play a new two-game goals-to-count series following Saturday night’s thriller here. The two teams were deadlocked. Havelock took the opener on their home ice 7-6 and Stouffville squeezed out a 7-6 verdict here on Saturday. The first game of the new series was played in Havelock on Tuesday. The second game is scheduled for the Stouffville arena on Thursday commencing at 6.45 p.m.
Stouffville 7, Havelock 6
More than 500 fans cheered, then moaned at regular intervals in one of the most hectic hockey contests witnessed in the Stouffville Arena this season. Stouffville’s Juvenile team eked out a tight 7-6 verdict to knot their two-games series at 13 goals apiece. Following the first period, the local supporters were all but prepared for the next round of the Ontario playdowns as Stouffville held a comfortable 4-0 lead over their Havelock rivals. What happened in the second and third periods will be remembered by the management, players and fans for many a day. Havelock outscored the homesters 3-2 in the second period and 3-1 in the final frame to even the series. The visitors came within an ace of sweeping the two games, but the automatic buzzer had sounded and the would be winner was disallowed. Although Stouffville had a number of lapses throughout the latter part of the contest here, they deserved a victory on the night’s play. Bud Thomas in the Stouffville nets was definitely “off”. He had little to do in the
first period and in the second and third frames when Havelock applied the pressure, he wilted between the pipes. As the game progressed, the tension mounted. Fans held their breath on every Havelock rush
and only the bell saved the locals from total elimination. Stouffville’s offensive attack looked good. They scored seven goals which should be enough to win any game by a comfortable margin. Murray Holden, one of the stars of the two-game series, continued his prolific scoring attack, firing three goals. two in the first period and one in the third. His last tally came at 16.37 of the final frame and looked big until nullified with less than three minutes remaining in the game. Don Haynes turned in an equally fine effort on the Stouffville rearguard. Aside from breaking up the determined Havelock rushes on the blueline, the hard-skating utility player counted a pair of goals, both coming in the first period. His first was a blazing bullet drive that caught the top corner of the Havelock cage and his second a clever close-in play that pulled goalie Percy Long completely out of position. Single tallies came from the sticks of Howard Malcolm and
Mike McStravick. Havelock Captain, Cliff Chase and forward Brian Scott each notched a pair for the visitors. Garry Whitney and Bob Rutherford potted singles. There were twelve penalties in the game, seven to Havelock and five to Stouffville.
Havelock 7, Stouffville 6
A seesaw battle in the first game played in the Havelock arena on Thursday night of last week ended with the opposition gaining a 7-6 verdict. Although Havelock counted the first goal of the contest, Stouffville moved out front midway through the opening frame and held an edge throughout most of the game. The locals led 6-5 until 12.10 of the third period, when Havelock potted the tying tally. Forty seconds later defenceman Don Jackson allowed McLaughlin of Havelock to steal the puck from his stick at the Stouffville blueline and park the disk behind goalie Bud Thomas for the winner. There was little to chose between the teams in the series opener. Ross Madill, clever winger on the Holden, McStravick, Madill line, was the driving force behind the Stouffville attack. He fired four goals before suffering a knee injury that hampered his efforts in the final frame. Murray Holden and Ted Suzuki notched singles. Larry Sayers fired a three- goal hat trick for the winners. Cliff Chase potted a pair with singles, coming from the sticks of Norm Barran’s and Don McLaughlin. There were twelve penalties in the game, six to each club. WING – BUFFALO COMPLETE SCHEDULE IN FIRST PLACE
The Red Wings and Buffalo completed the regular schedule of the Lions Peewee and Peewee (Bantam) groups in first place. The Wings finished six points ahead of the second place Rangers in their respective
league, while Buffalo held a mere one point edge over Pittsburg, the runners-up. In Monday nights contests, The Rangers edged the Red Wings 2-1, the Bruins downed the Black Hawks 2-1, Buffalo defeated the Leafs 3-1 and Pittsburg trounced the Canadiens 8-2.
Rangers 2, Wings 1
Ed Dawson’s Red Wings suffered only their third loss in the entire schedule on Monday night when they dropped a 2-1 decision to the second place Rangers. The contest was a wide-open game. Teddy Winterfield put the Rangers ahead early in the game but Ken Aida evened the score with Keith Betz picking up an assist. With ten minutes remaining, Larry Taylor picked up a loose puck in front of the Detroit net and backhanded the rubber into the bottom corner for the winner.
Bruins 2, Hawks 1
Ted Cadieux’s Bruins, one of the most improved clubs since the start of the season, edged the last place Black Hawks 2-1. Francis Haylow led the Boston club to victory, scoring the winning goal and assisting on one other. Wayne Crowder counted the first Bruin tally. Billy Payne, the Hawks top marksman, mounted his teams only goal.
Buffalo 3, Leafs 1
A pair of goals by forward Don Gibson and a single tally by Jim Miller kept Buffalo in first place as they downed the Leafs 3-1. Jim Miller, Cliff Reynolds and Garry Brown picked up assists on the Bruin tallies. John Torrance scored an unassisted goal for the Leafs.
Hornets 8, Canadiens 2
Warren Hendricks and Allan Anderson each fired a pair of goals as Pittsburg trounced the Canadiens 8-2 in the final game on Monday night. Single tallies came from the sticks of Keith McDowell, Les Lye, Wayne Hamilton and Roger Mole. Each of the goal-scorers also picked up an assist. Eric Mortimer and Garry Gall collected the goals for the Canadiens with the latter figuring in both tallies.
Playoffs
The round-robin playoff series will start on Monday evening of next week. The two teams in the two groups with the most points following the play-downs will be crowned Peewee and Peewee (Bantam) champions. The winners will be presented with a cup and each player will receive a crest. The playoff series will be completed on March 25th. BANTAMS BEAT HAVELOCK 6-4, LOSE ON ROUND
The Stouffville Bantams reached the end of the Ontario playoff road on Saturday night. Although the homesters chalked up a 6-4 victory here, they dropped the opener in the Havelock arena on Thursday by a one-sided score of 9-4.
Stouffville 6, Havelock 4
Playing before a good crowd of hometown supporters, the local Bantam team skated to a 6-4 victory over Havelock here on Saturday night. In spite of the victory, the homesters fell three goals short of evening
the series. Stouffville’s performance here could not be criticized in any way. The local lads skated hard right to the final whistle and their efforts were roundly cheered by the partisan fans. Although faced with the difficult task of overhauling Havelock’s five goal advantage, chalked up in the series opener, the boys never stopped trying and looked good even in defeat. Their job was made even harder since Havelock held a 2-1 lead at the end of the first period. Stouffville counted two unanswered tallies in the second frame and outscored their rivals 3-2 in the last period. Ron Rutherford, number 13, was the driving force behind the visitors attack. It took him less than two minutes to put his club out front 1-0 with an unassisted tally. Derek Arbuckle evened the score on a pass from Larry McMullen at 11.20 but Keith Kirk of Havelock made it 2-1 one minute before the whistle sounded. Lynn McMullen took over for Stouffville in the second frame and potted two-in-a-row. His first came after only 35 seconds had ticked by in the middle session with Roger Stover picking up an assist. He added another at the seventeen minute mark on passes from Allan Boyd and Willard Peddie. Although Stouffville’s hopes of tying the series faded slightly early in the last period, when Havelock’s Joe Barrons scored, they rose suddenly when the homesters fired three fast tallies behind goalie John Agnew. Grant Foreman blinked the light from Larry Malloy and Rick Wedseltoft at 2.40 and Bob Lehman sifted a bullet drive into the twine from the Havelock blueline twenty seconds later. At 7.35 Derek Arbuckle caught the corner with Stouffville’s sixth and final goal with Lynn McMullen and Larry picking up assists on the play. With less than five minutes to play in the game, Keith Kirk of Havelock sewed up the series for his team with a neat goal on a close-in shot. Rick Wedseltoft was brought down from the Midgets to bolster the Bantam lineup and although he failed to score, he picked up an assist on one Stouffville goal. He performed on a line with Grant Foreman and Larry Malloy. Glenn Jackson played well in the nets for the homesters. There were eleven penalties in the game, seven to Stouffville and four to Havelock. KING CITY OUSTS MIDGETS FROM NORTH YORK PLAYOFFS
Stouffville Midgets completed their hockey activity for the 1956-57 season on Friday night when they were knocked out of the North York group playoffs by King City. King took the opener in the Nobleton arena by a score of 6-1 on Thursday night and then rallied to tie Stouffville here the following Friday 4-4 to win the round ten goals to five. Norm Hendricks fired the lone goal for Stouffville on Thursday evening. On Friday, Rick Wedseltoft led the scoring parade, potting a pair. Norm Hendricks and Gord Eckardt netted singles. The Midgets were financially backed by five local sponsors this season. With all expenses paid up to date it cost the men $12.00 each or a total of $60.00. A considerable amount of money was raised by an early season draw and the players contributed a small per game fee throughout the schedule.
Keith Sutherland, coach of the local Bantam team had his share of bad luck on Thursday night of last week. Aside from his team losing the playoff encounter at Havelock, Keith had one tire blow out, lost a hub cap and had his vehicle slide into the ditch while returning to Stouffville.

MAIN ST. RUNNER HAS HOPES HAS OLYMPIC HOPES FOR 1960
A Stouffville resident who runs “when I feel like it even if it’s midnight,” hopes to be the first Canadian to break the four-minute mile. Fred Dunn, 33-year old Toronto-born carpenter, causes many astonished stares as he trains in Stouffville streets, sometimes doing somersaults as he runs. “Some people laugh as I run but I try not to pay any attention,” Mr. Dunn said, “I’m not crazy; those somersaults are good for warming up.” Mr. Dunn, a resident of Stouffville since Christmas, works in Toronto. He said he travels each night back to Stouffville Btu taking bus to Richmond Hill, then walking the rest of the way, a distance of some eleven miles. He never feels like running the eleven miles, “After a day’ s work, who feel like running?” Mr. Dunn became interested in the sport a year ago because of his girl friend. He explained that the girl he hoped to marry had a small son and “I would like the boy to feel his father had accomplished something. “My heart is set on entering the Olympics in 1960,” Mr. Dunn added. He feels he has a “terrible amount of willpower” which gives him an advantage over younger contenders. He neither enters competitions nor times himself while running. “Last year I developed my strength; this year I‘m concentrating on speed. Next year I’ll begin to time myself,” he said. He says he has often run until he dropped from exhaustion then struggled onto his feet and carried on. “Only will-power kept me
going.” Mr. Dunn prefers Stouffville to Toronto because “the people are friendly.” The fair-haired running enthusiast hopes eventually to organize a track and field club in Stouffville. “everybody isn’t interested in hockey and baseball,” he declared. Before he took up running Mr. Dunn’s hobbies were photography and record-collecting, but “I’ve gotten away from that now,” he says. He is living in Stouffville with his uncle, Mr. S.I. Dunn at Main and Blake streets. SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas RED HOT
“Red” was hot on Thursday night. Clipper netminder Jack “Red” Willis turned in one of the finest goaltending performances we’ve seen here this season as the Clippers clipped the Aurora Bel-Aires 4-1. “Red’s” efforts between the Stouffville pipes boosted the Clippers into the group playoff finals. It marked the first time this season that Stouffville had upset the much-feared Yonge Street crew. There’s no denying the fact that the difference between the two teams was the puck-stopping performance of Jack Willis. The one drive that evaded him was a screened shot from the blueline that caught the corner of the twine through a maze of skates and legs. A good crowd (largest of the season) gasped in amazement in the second period when Willis snagged a low- line drive in his gloved hand that was headed straight for the bottom righthand corner. It was a stop that could only be expected by a Planet, Worsley or Rollins. The spectacular save was perhaps the turning point in the content as Stouffville rallied to even the score and roll on to fire three unanswered tallies in the final frame. Willis also rose to great heights in the third period, when Stouffville rearguard Les Clarke was banished with a two minute tripping penalty. Close to a dozen labelled shots were directed at the Clipper cage guardian but he held his ground and refused to yield a goal in spite of the visitors determined efforts. Through the sensational work of the Stouffville puck stopper the homesters were spurred on to renewed efforts which paid off in goals. T.V. PROMOTION
Since the introduction of television, sports promoters across the country have been pointing an accusing finger at the antenna- equipped mechanism, claiming it is mainly responsible for the lack of attendance during the past few years. To a certain extent this is true but as far as NHL hockey is concerned television has been a boon to this sport in the United States. Never, in the history of the game, have attendance figures risen to such heights. In Chicago and New York where hockey interest was at a low ebb in the past seasons, interest is on the upswing and packed arenas are the order of the day. What has television done for hockey? In the U.S. the majority of people didn’t understand the game. The rules of the sport were very vague the players were merely Canadian imports who chased a rubber disk around a rink, engaged one another in the odd fistic encounter and pocketed a few thousand dollars to take back to Canada in the spring. Now the picture has changed. A number of televised hockey games on Saturday afternoons has done the trick. It must be admitted that the camera work has been excellent, far exceeding the best that Toronto’s Maple Leaf Gardens could offer. Every game televised from the U.S. has been closely contested. They have included all the thrills of a World Series or a professional football final. Television has “sold” hockey to the United States and their jam-packed arenas are visible proof of its effective presentation. JUVENILES BLANK HAVELOCK 2-1, ENTER SEMI-FINALS
The Stouffville Juveniles gained entry into the Ontario semi- finals by beating Havelock 6-1 and 2-0 in a home and home goals-to-count series. Bruce Smith, sub netminder with the team throughout the regular schedule was called up for service by coach Jack Watson and allowed only one puck to evade him in the two games. He closed the door on the Havelock visitors here on Thursday night and chalked up a shutout. Stouffville’s rearguards, Don Haynes, Don Jackson, Ron Hedges and Rolph Sundquist gave goalie Smith fine support in the return tilt here. Captain Haynes was a tower of strength on the locals defence in addition to leading many cyclonic rushes into the oppositions territory. Throughout the entire sixty minutes, netminder Smith blocked a total of 16 labelled shots, far short of the number handled by Havelock goal-guardian Percy Long. Riding on a comfortable five goal lead chalked up in the series opener, the homesters started rather slowly in the game here. As the contest progressed the locals stepped up their pace and had a big edge in the second and third frames. Havelock netminder Percy Long was the target of 43 drives from the sticks of Stouffville forwards. Rearguard Don Jackson did double duty, working his regular shift on defence and moving up front to centre of line with Murray McDowell and Eddie Sanders. Havelock killed their own chances of pulling out of the fire by running into a host of cheap penalties in the final frame. Out of the 13 Havelock players banished to the cooler in the game, eight served time in the third period. The visitors played at a manpower disadvantage throughout most of the last session. Brian Scott of Havelock spent eight minutes in the sin-bin. Rae Scott of Havelock talked himself into a ten minute misconduct penalty. Don Jackson and Ross Madill were the Stouffville sharpshooters. Jackson put the homesters out front at 8.47 of the second period with
assists going to Ted Suzuki and Steve Wideman. After only twenty-five seconds had ticked by in the final frame, Ross Madill sewed up the game and the series for Stouffville on passes from Murray Holden and
Mike McStravick. Goalie Bruce Smith was mobbed by his team mates at the final whistle. The sub-netminder called into active service by coach Jack Watson in an effort to keep his club in the playoff hunt, turned in a fine puck-stopping performance especially in the series opener. He held the opposition completely off the score sheet in the return game. Havelock accepted their loss like true sportsmen and wished the local squad every success in future contests along the playoff trail. Although the game was scheduled for 6.45 p.m., a large crowd was in attendance to witness the tilt. Jack Watsons squad will now remain idle for a week to await a winner in an other group. BRUINS TROUNCE RANGERS 7-1 IN PLAYOFF OPENER
Ted Cadieux’s Bruins ran wild in a scoring way on Monday night and trounced the rangers 7-1. It was the first game in the Lions Peewee playoff finals. In the other contests, the Red Wings edged the Black Hawks 2-1, the Leafs downed Canadians 4-2 and Pittsburg and Buffalo battled to a 2-2 draw. The winners in both the Peewee and Peewee (Bantam) series will be guests at a banquet in May and will receive individual crests.
Bruins 7, Rangers 1
Francis Haylow and Arlan Galbraith were the top marksmen for the Bruins. Each winger scored three goals. Darcy Forsyth notched a lone tally. Ted Winterfield scored the Rangers only goal on a pass from Tom Benson. The Bruins had a big edge in the play and only the work of Ranger goalie Billy Brown kept the score from reaching the double figures. Laurie Buckland in the Boston cage came up with a number of good stops but was not overworked.
Wings 2, Hawks 1
The Black Hawks who managed to win only four games during the entire season almost pulled an upset on Monday night in their game with the Red Wings. Ross Brown scored the winner with Ken Aida picking up an assist. Aida was moved up to the first line for the playoff opener. Jeff Burkholder notched the other Red Wing tally. Billy Payne blinked the light for the Hawks.
Leafs 4, Canadiens 2
Roger Forsyth bagged the hat trick on Monday night as the maple Leafs defeated the Canadiens 4-2. John Torrance scored the other Leaf tally with Bert Vizely picking up an assist. Bobby Wagg and Lloyd Gayman were the Canadien’s marksmen. Eric Mortimer assisted on his team’s last tally.
Pittsburg 2, Buffalo 2
Pittsburg and Buffalo, two well-balanced clubs battled to a 2-2 draw. Cliff Reynolds has hit his scoring stride in recent games and fired both Buffalo goals. On Monday evening Barry McLean picked up an assist on his final tally. Frank Taylor and Warren Hendricks potted singles for the Hornets. The win by the Leafs coupled with the Buffalo-Pittsburg tie moved Don Davis’ club into sole possession of first place. They will be trying to hold their coveted position when they meet Buffalo next week. STOUFFVILLE-MARKHAM SOCCER TEAMS TO MERGE
Word was received this week that the Stouffville and Markham Soccer teams will join forces this summer to field one club. An organization meeting will be held at the Markham Public Library on Friday evening at 9.15. Anyone interested in playing, coaching or officiating is welcome to attend.

by Jim Thomas ANOTHER WAY NEEDED
“The chap who invented the round-robin hockey playoff series should be shot,” says Mr. Geo. Haskett, Newmarket sports scribe. I heartily agree with Mr. Haskett in this regard. Where three clubs are involved in a round-robin semi-final, it’s possible that when the home and home series is completed the teams may be right back where they started. This was the case in the local Junior ‘C’ group involving Brooklin, Aurora and Newmarket. After a grueling series, each club finished with an identical number of points. The OHA, in a desperate move to establish a winner ordered the semi-finals to be replayed immediately. By the time the finals are run off it will be April before a team from this group emerges to play in the Ontario playdowns. After so much hockey, three or four games in a single week, the group champion will probably pass out of the playoff picture through sheer exhaustion. The same situation could have occurred in the Intermediate setup if Beeton had upset Aurora on Thursday night. Another view on the whole round-robin setup that I don’t like is the probability that the top club throughout the schedule could be ousted in short order in a round-robin series. In be the Jr. ‘C’ and Intermediate ‘C’ groups, Aurora, who finished ahead of the pack with a lengthy lead could have been knocked out of the money series if the club was “off colour” in a couple games. As we go to press this could still happen in the Brooklin-Aurora-Newmarket series. Although the OHA’s round-robin series perhaps prolongs hockey playoffs for a number of second-rate clubs in order that they might break even financially, the OMHA, I believe goes to the extreme by eliminating clubs on a goals-to-count basis. These home and home series, such as the local juveniles are now participating in, can be “disastrous” should one club have an “off” night. Cases are quite numerous, where the weaker team has moved on into further Ontario playoff competition just by catching their stronger rivals “off stride” in one of the two games. Take for example the Bantam Havelock series. Stouffville dropped the opener 9-4 at Havelock and skated into the second game with the visitors holding a 5-0 advantage before the puck was even dropped. They were the winners here but could not overcome the lead chalked up in the first contest. In a best-of-three game series, the victor would be debatable in reference to the Bantams. The Stouffville Juveniles also came within two seconds of being pushed aside by Havelock as the visitors notched the would-be winner a split second after the buzzer sounded. The new series proved that Stouffville was the better team, but a club doesn’t always get a
second chance to prove its ability. What is the solution? It’s something that would need considerable study and one cannot give the matter a hurried answer. Perhaps it will be discussed more thoroughly when the OHA and OMHA hold their annual meeting in the spring. LEAFS MAKE STRONG BID FOR PEEWEE HONOURS
Don Davis’ Maple Leafs, who had little success during the regular scheduled games in the Peewee (Bantam) group, are making a strong bid for the championship in the current playoffs. In their two games to date they have scored one win and a tie to keep pace with Pittsburg atop the group. On Monday evening they deadlocked the powerful Buffalo club 3-3 while Pittsburg blanked the Canadiens 9-0. In the other Peewee group, the Red Wings blanked the Rangers 6-0 while the Hawks upset the Bruins 4-1.
Leafs 3, Buffalo 3
Ron Jones was the leaf’s top performer, tiring two goals. Ken Stickwood picked up an assist on the one tally and Ron Hutchinson assisted on the other. Allan Lackey notched the other Leaf goal on a pass from Roger Forsyth. Jim Miller, Cliff Reynolds and David Coppins were the Buffalo marksmen. The Leafs are faced with a man-size job next Monday when they meet their first place rivals, the Hornets. Buffalo will battle the Canadiens.
Pittsburg 9, Canadiens 0
The Canadiens were no match for the strong Pittsburg club as the hornets rolled to a one-sided 9-0 victory. Warren Hendricks, the top goalscorer during the regular schedules, continued his prolific pace
blinking the light four times during the contest. Keith James and Frank Taylor each potted a pair and Wayne Hamilton notched one. Seven of the nine tallies were solo efforts.
Wings 6, Rangers 0
Ross Brown was burning up the ice again on Monday night. Taking advantage of a listless Ranger team, the front line speedster whipped two goals past netminder Billy Brown and picked up an assist on another tally. Barry Hilts, Kenny Aida, Jim Hill and Teddy Redshaw counted singles. Redshaw’s goal came in the final minutes of the contest or a clean-cut breakaway. Ross Brown fired the picture tally of the contest, cutting in on the Ranger net and drawing goalie Brown out of the cage to score on a perfect backhand shot. The Rangers couldn’t get untracked all night. The absence of Ronnie Castle on the 1st line slowed down the losers attacking power. The Rangers have now dropped two-in-a-row although they finished the regular schedule in second place.
Hawks 4, Bruins 1
Bill Lennox’ Black Hawks pulled a real upset in Monday evening’s opener, defeating the Bruins 4-1. Jim Redshaw, Jim Foote and Brian Madill were the Chicago marksmen. Arlan Galbraith fired the lone Boston tally on a pass from Francis Haylow. Billy Harper and David Lackey picked up assists on two of the Black Hawks goals. The Bruins slogan– “as Haylow goes so goes the Boston team’– held true as the front-line centre star was held off the score sheet and his team lost. The defeat dropped Ted Cadieux’s club into second place.
Barbara Sanders, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. C. Sanders, Stouffville, received a beautiful Stouffville Legion Trophy from President, Mr. L. W. Buckland. Barbara was named Novice Champion at the annual Skating Club Carnival in the arena on Friday night. CLIPPERS DROPP OPENER 8-6
The Clippers dropped the opening game in their best of five group finals at Aurora on Tuesday night by a score of 8-6. A last-minute gamble by coach Don McIntosh backfired as lanky Don “Spider” Gibson sank a twenty foot shot into the empty clipper cage as netminder Geo Wilkins sat on the bench in favour of an extra forward. The two clubs will tangle here on Thursday night. There was little to choose be tween the teams on the night’s play. The lead changed hands on a number of occasions. It was 2-2 at the end of the first period, 5-4 for Aurora at the end of the second and 8-6 at the final bel. l Two of Stouffville’s usually mild-mannered players became involved in a wrestling bee with a pair of Aurora performers. Les Clarke of the Clippers and Grant Winters of the Bel-Aires were banished with minor and game misconduct penalties. Harold Hodgson of Stouffville and Ortie Thoms of Aurora received minor penalties for roughing. The fistic encounter broke out with less than a minute remaining in the contest. As the players paraded to their respective dressing rooms, the fighting was resumed and referee Jack Shropshire stepped between the combatants in the alley-way. In the goal-scoring department it was the Clippers’ big line of Harold Hodgson, Bud Lehman and Howard Forgie who paced the Stouffville attack. Hodgson fired a three-goal hat trick while bud Lehman counted a pair and picked up three assists. Forgie also assisted on three of his linemate’s tallies. Defenceman Les Clarke potted one. Phil Nicholas was the big gun for the Bel Aires, counting three. Don Gibson and Grant Edwards potted a pair. Ortie Thoms notched the
other. As always, in a high-scoring contest, a number of goals were of the fluke variety. One Aurora tally caromed off the stick of Clipper defenceman Tip Vipond, while one Stouffville goal bounced off the
skate of forward Bud Lehman and dribbled over the line. The entire contest was a wide- open affair and in spite of the score both netminders came up with some dazzling stops. With the exception of the final minute of play, penalties were very scarce, both clubs realizing the disastrous results of playing five men to six. JUVENILES LOSE 4-2 TO NORWICH IN OPENER
The Stouffville Juveniles playing below par, absorbed a 4-2 defeat at the hands of Norwich on Tuesday night. The return game in the Ontario semi-final goals-to-count series will be played here on Saturday night at 6.30 p.m. The two clubs were deadlocked 2 in the late stages of the third period, when Norwich potted a couple of quick tallies. Steve Wideman and Don Haynes were the marksmen for Stouffville.
A large crowd attended the contest in spite of the hazardous weather conditions. The locals were late in arriving at the rink and went into the game cold. The players arrived home between three and four o’clock in the morning. Norwich’s second goal was strongly protested by Stouffville’s Captain, Don Haynes, who claimed that a rival player was in the crease and that netminder Bruce Smith had been purposely bodied out of position before the puck was deposited in the twine. Their argument fell on deaf ears however and the tally was allowed. STOUFFVILLE ENTER 7-TEAM SOCCER GROUP
The Stouffville-Markham soccer team will operate in a 7-club group this season. Aurora will field two entries. Newmarket, Lindsay, Claremont and Bradford will be the other teams in the loop. The Stouffville-Markham club has been named the M.S. United. the group will be called the York County and District Soccer League. The president is Mr. Bill Gunn of Markham. Mr. Walter Koster of Stouffville has been named secretary-treasurer and Chris Brophey of Markham will be the Manager and Team Captain. The coach has not been named as yet and no decision has been reached with regard to the home field for the new entry. Indoor practice will commence next week at Markham.

FORM ASSOCIATION TO OPERATE MINOR HOCKEY TEAMS
One of the most compact sports programmes ever to be established Stouffville was discussed and unanimously passed at a meeting of the Lions Club on Monday evening. The project will include the operation of all minor hockey such as Peewee, Bantam Midget, Juvenile and a Junior entry. This large-scale hockey programme will be spread over two nights weekly. Monday and Thursday evenings have been set aside for an ice-rental fee of $2,500 for the entire season. Mr. Don Davis, who presented the Lions Club with the proposed plan, stated that he believed it would be possible to operate this hockey
programme at a lesser expense to the Club than was involved in the season of 1956-57. He pointed out that 11 1/2 hours would be needed at the arena each week, which amounted to approximately $9 per hour under the financial arrangement set down by the Arena Board. Mr. Davis noted that the regular hourly rate paid by outside clubs was $15.00. Although the final arrangements have yet to be worked out, it has tentatively been agreed that Monday night’s programme will include the operation of the Peewee League, the Bantam team and a Juvenile club. The ice will be available from 6 pm until the last game is completed. On Thursday evening, commencing at 4.30 p.m., the Peewees, the Midgets and the Juniors will see action. Since, under the past setup, each Peewee player was receiving on an average of only six minutes of hockey per week, it has been decided to split the league and have two nights per week instead of one. Each player on any one of the Peewee, Bantam, Midget and Juvenile teams will pay a registration fee. These players will be insured at a cost of s180.00. Every person entering the arena for any of these
games will be charged an admission fee of 25 cents. A separate admission charge will be made for the Junior games. The Hockey Association will operate under an appointed executive. The President, Treasurer and Convener will be members of the Lions Club. There will be a head coach over the entire system plus coaches and managers for each individual club. An equipment manager will be named to look after the sweaters, pads, sticks etc. at both home and away games. Although men to fill these important posts have already been selected, their names will not be revealed until they have been
contacted personally. Mr. Ken Laushway, Pres. of the Arena Board told the meeting that the proposed scheme was one that met with his complete approval. He stated that he considered the operation of only the Peewees was a lost cause. He pointed out that the Arena Board had endeavoured to be fair and had cut prices wherever possible. PAT LEHMAN WINS HIGH SINGLE; IDA EPWORTH HIGH TRIPLE
In the recently concluded Ladies Bowling League, Pat Lehman finished the season with a high singles average of 190. Her mark was only one point better than Mrs. Betty Wilkins who chalked up an average of 189. In the high triple department Mrs. lda Epworth topped her class with an average of 325. Bernice Nelson was the runner- up with 288. Ruth Wagg’s “Blowouts” finished the regular schedule In first place although her team succumbed to the “Spitfires” piloted by Gladys Ford in the playoff round. The members on Ruth Wagg’s club were Frankie O’Boyle, Marie Jack, Ruth Smith, Vi Booth and Margaret McWhinney.

STRONG JUV. ENTRY
Coach Murray Stewart is confident he can field a powerful Juvenile baseball team here this summer. The team held their third practice session on Tuesday night with fifteen players attending the workout. They plan to enter the North York circuit and later move on into OBA competition. To date the clubs chances rest on the arms of first-string hurler Harry Barber and speed-ball twirler Lynn Taylor. Both mounds men attended the warm-up session on Tuesday. To complete the battery, Don Haynes and Gord Eckardt will be available to handle the decker. Ross Madill, who took a few warmup pitches on Tuesday may be used relief work should either Barber or Taylor tire. Other performers who hope to have a position with the club: Murray Holden, Roger Beasley, Ted Suzuki, Bruce Smith, John Little, Wayne Redshaw, Jim Spang, Roger Stover, Vern Ferguson. The latter starred with the Brooklin Combines who reached the Jr. ‘C’ finals this winter. Wayne Redshaw also performed on the club.

by Jim Thomas REGRETTABLE DECISION
the Tri-County baseball league has folded. This regrettable decision was reached at an attempted organization meeting in Sutton last week. The Red Sox, who have won the honours in six of the nine years that the group was in operation, will likely step out of the baseball limelight for the 1957 season at least. The situation in the Tri-County circuit is comparable to the Markham Twp softball loop which also became non existent last month. Teams will persist in banging onto their veteran performers with little thought for the future and then suddenly– bang they all decide to hang up their spikes, with the result, no teams and no league. Sunderland is an example of such a situation. The club has been coasting along on Geo. Holburne’s arm for a number of years. This season he states definitely that he intends to retire, so the management throws up its arms in despair and says “we can’t carry on.” It would appear rather ridiculous to this reporter that a couple of baseball pitchers with an inkling of hurling skill couldn’t be found in either the towns of Sunderland or Sutton. We must admit that a pitcher is important but there are also eight other positions on a club which. if properly filled, can give even a mediocre mounds man the necessary support to win plenty of ball games. Apparently Sunderland also lacked the talent to fill these posts. Port Perry is another example. As Bill Harper went, so went the team. Suddenly Harper decides he’s had his day, so the club folds. Newmarket, a town of more than 5000 residents, is unable to scrape together nine baseball players and field a team. To make matters worse, neither Port Perry nor Newmarket were even represented at the meeting to throw any light on the matter. Orillia and Stouffville were interested but they couldn’t play against each other all summer. If any team hopes to exist, it must keep bringing in younger talent. The Red Sox management last year signed such performers as Harold
Hodgson, Don Haynes, Cliff Morris, Chuck Parsons, Graham Frisby and others. These young players improved with every game and contributed much to Stouffville’s successful defence of the Tri-County championship. Now, it would appear, that this local talent will be scattered to the four winds and it may be difficult to ever get them back. Baseball here in Stouffville has always been this town’s National sport. Thumbing back through the files the names of Lefty Lennox, Doc Dales, Earl Cook, Harold Cook, Buster Lunau, Max Reesor, the Lehman brothers, the Clendenning brothers and many more have all carried the
name of Stouffville through to the group laurels. Now such names as Lorne Schell, Bob Hassard, Bud Lehman, Ken Schell, Ted Cadieux, Les Clarke, Hal Gibson and many more are slated for their final entry in the record books. Will the league make a comeback in ’58? It’s very unlikely when any organization folds its very difficult to revive it again. The veteran players lose interest and any up-and-coming stars
move elsewhere. And so another chapter has been written into the disheartening annals of local sport. Where will it all end? Is all amateur sport doomed for an early death? In this area hockey was the first to feel the blow, next the local softball circuit folded and now Intermediate baseball has gone by the boards. It’s a sad, sad, story. LOCAL BOOTERS EDGE BRAMPTON BY 2-1 SCORE
In a clean well-played game the newly organized Markham-Stouffville United soccer club staged a two goal rally in the second half to edge Brampton 2-1, in a preschedule exhibition contest on Saturday night. The game was played in the Memorial Park under the lights. The locals appeared a little shaky in the early stages of the contest and allowed Brampton to break through and score at the eight minute
mark. The homesters started to take command of the play when they found themselves trailing 1-0. Although they forced the attack into the Brampton end ,they couldn’t click around the visitors goal. The first half ended with Brampton retaining their one goal edge. The homesters continued to force the play into the Brampton end in the early minutes of the second half but the stout defence managed to hold the homesters off the score sheet. With fifteen minutes remaining in the game the ball rebounded off the Brampton cross bar and Ron Godell booted it into the net to even the score for the M,S,U. club. The locals had a number of close calls later in the contest. One shot bounced off the cross bar and another was cleared by Stanley Godell as it rolled dangerously close to the line. The M.S.U. squad started to
show their real ability in the final minutes. Centre forward Chris Brophy moved over to left wing and was a star at his new position. With nine minutes to play, Gerry Pfeil gained possession of the ball and booted the winner be tween the Brampton posts. The homesters gave Brampton little opportunity to even the score again as they forced the play into the visitors end-zone. The game was completed on very friendly terms thus easing the work of referee Frank Lawless. The starting lineup for the Stouffville-Markham team was as follows: goal, Walter Koster; defence, Jack Ferra, Peter Vanderkool; halfback, Bill Gunn, Stan Godell, Heinz Franks; forwards, Peter Hientzsch, Gerry Pfeil, Chris Brophy, Ron Godell and Ted Greenwood. At half time, some changes were made in the local’s lineup. Willy Ansink and Frank Mellon formed the defence and Jack Ferra moved to the halfback line. The management agreed that their club did not play up to mid- season form but since it was their first full game this could be expected. It is felt, however that the club has the ability which coupled with some serious training will produce a winning team. The unseasonable cold weather on Saturday evening kept the attendance down. LIONEL FOREHEADS SKATING CLUB
A director’s meeting of the Stouffville Skating Club was held on Wednesday evening May 1st at the home of Mr. Lionel Foord. The club directors for next season are as follows: President, Lionel Foord;

“A QUITTER NEVER WINS AND A WINNER NEVER QUITS”
So said, Bob Pulford with the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Leaf forward, was one of the special guests who attended the Lions Club Minor Hockey banquet in the Masonic Hall on Monday evening. The Toronto winger was flooded with questions. Many being submitted by members of the Peewee teams present.
Question: What makes Rocket Richard so difficult to stop?
Answer: His terrific speed when inside the oppositions blueline and his ability to shoot the instant the puck hits his stick without taking time to aim his shot.
Question: Where is the best place to shoot?
Answer: Watch the goaltender. It is usually best to shoot for his stick and if the netminder tends to come out of his goal, try to draw him out. It’s best to shoot low
Question: What has been your biggest thrill in hockey to date?
Answer: I’ve had a number of thrills playing on two memorial pup teams and scoring my first NHL goal.
Question: Since the Leafs have changed their coach do expect there will be a change in their style of play?
Answer: Yes. Most of the other clubs have changed their style of offensive play already and I think the Leafs will too. Instead of the ganging attack style used previously I believe an inside-the-blueline passing attack will be perfected. Pulford noted particularly the Rangers who practice this play constantly.
Question: Gordie Howe and Ted Lindsay often play on their wrong wings. Why is this allowed?
Answer: Howe and Lindsay are superstars. They crisscross back and forth only when on the offensive. They pick up their own wings when back-checking.
Question: Who is the best goaltender in the NHL?
Answer: Glenn Hall. Terry Sawchuck was possibly the best prior to his retirement. Jacque Plante won the Vezina trophy, but he had a powerful team in front of him.
Question: Who has the hardest shot in hockey?
Answer: There are a number in the NHL. Geoffrion has one of the hardest shots. Others are Tim Horton, Gordie Howe, Andy Bathgate and Jean Beleveau.
Question: How many goals did you score when the Leafs beat the rangers 11-1?
Answer: Next question please.
Question: How many goals did you score last season?
Answer: Eleven
Question: How many minutes in penalties did you serve last season?
Answer: Fifty.
Mr. Don Davis acted as chairman of the meeting The special speaker for the occasion was Mr. Geo. Kitchen, President of the Scarboro Minor Hockey Association. He was introduced by Mr. Cec Hendricks. In a forceful address directed mainly to the players and those connected with the operation of minor hockey, Mr. Kitchen laid down a number of rules and regulations for them to follow. He pointed out that one of the first requirements of young hockey players is to learn the rules and obey them. The task of teaching the rules falls with the coach, but according to the speaker, its up to the young player to put them into practice. Mr. Kitchen selected three S’s and three D’s which are prime requirements if a young hockeyists ever hopes to graduate into big league competition – size, speed and spirit or desire, determination and drive. “Its not how many players graduate into the NHL that’s important,” said the speaker, “but how many develop into good Canadian citizens.” Mr. Kitchen noted that in the past 10 years he has handled 2,000 hockey players. From this number only one has moved up into the National
Hockey League and 10 are with the Toronto Marlboros. There are presently 38 teams in the Scarboro Lions League part, of 102 clubs in their hockey organization. In turning to the coaches and managers, Mr. Kitchen stressed the need for proper coaching, but warned against over-Coaching. “Give a kid a chance and he will come through every time,” he said. Quoting the words of Jack Dempsey, Mr. Kitchen said, “there’s no easy way to success, love God, live clean and work hard.” The speaker paid tribute to the work of Mr. Don Davis, the Lions League Chairman and Mr. Lloyd Turner, the League Secretary. A vote of thanks to the guest speaker was tendered by Rev. D. Davis. SOCCER CLUB BOOTS IT’S WAY TO 2-2 DRAW WITH AURORA
The Stouffville-Markham United battled from behind to tie aurora 22 in a preschedule exhibition game on Saturday night. The game was a real thriller from the opening kick- off. The homesters looked much improved over their last appearance on the field. The forwards worked hard especially the newly-formed left wing of Gerry Pfeil and Pat Woodbyrne who performed very smoothly. The Markham-Stouffville offensive attack paid off after six minutes of play when centre-forward Chris Brophy picked up a pass from the right and netted a neat goal to give the locals a 1-0 lead. The M.S.U. squad continued to press their attack following the goal but it suddenly backfired when the homesters defence was caught out of position and Auroras centre-forward notched the equalizer. At the halfway mark the score was deadlocked 1-1. The Markham-Stouffville defence and goaltender were caught flat-footed early in the second half and Aurora broke through and scored their second tally. Down one goal, the local squad forged into the attack and only some fine work by the Aurora netminder held the homesters off the score sheet. Finally after twenty-one minutes of play, Chris Brophy, the star of the contest booted the ball between the posts to even the score at 2-2. Although the United continued to press they could not find an opening to chalk up the winner. The forward line performed well throughout the game, Chris Brophy was the locals’ key j marksman, counting both goals. Wingers, Pat Woodbyrne and Gerry Pfeil showed plenty of promise. Inside-right Jack Haverkort, a good ball player, continues to dribble the ball too much and thus slows up the offensive attack. Stan Godell at centre-half played his usual solid game but sometimes moved too far up field, thus leaving a gap in the defence. Hard- kicking Al Hathoway is expected to develop into a very useful full-back. The locals’ lineup for the game on Saturday evening was as follows:
Walter Koster, Al Hathaway, Frank Mellon, Bill Gunn, Stan Godell, Jack Ferra, Ron Godell, Jack Haverkort, Chris Brophy, Pat Woodbyrne and Gerry Pfeil. JUVENILE BALL TEAM IN NORTH YORK LOOP

JUNIOR BOOTERS SWEEP SOCCER SERIES AGAINST LINDSAY
Stouffville’s Junior soccer team swept a home and home series with Lindsay last week by scores of 2-1 and 1-0. In the first game played in the Memorial Park, Barry McLean combined with Harvey Bellman to give the homesters a one goal lead. In the second half, Jerry Pheil took advantage of Lindsay’s slow goaltender to boot the ball between the posts. At the other of the field, Stouffville’s goal guardian, Joe Haylow turned in a good game and blocked a number of close-in shots. In the final minute of play however, Lindsay spoiled Haylow’s shutout performance with a lone tally. In the return tilt, played at Lindsay, Stouffville blanked their rivals 1-0. Jerry Pheil scored the lone goal. The Stouffville defence of Bill White, Bob Corbett and Norbert Dams play-ed a solid game and Joe Haylow turned in his usual fine performance in the goal.

LOCALS BLANK BRAMPTON 5-0 IN SOCCER
The Stouffville-Markham soccer club chalked a 5-0 victory over Brampton in their opening soccer match of the season. The contest was played in the Memorial Arena ground at Brampton. The local squad forged into the attack early in the game and after only six minutes of play they scored. Right Winger Ron Godell booted the ball between the posts with a sharp cross shot. The Stouffville-Markham defence appeared a trifle shaky during the early stages of the contest and although there were a few goalmouth scrambles, Brampton couldn’t find the target. The uneven-ground made it difficult for the MSU squad to control the ball. Chris Brophy blazed a shot over the bar and a number of other forwards missed on close-in plays. Finally, Jack Haverkort made it 2-0 for the winners before half time. In the second half, Ted Greenwood replaced Gerry Pfeil on the left wing. Early in the half, Jack Haverkort came very close to scoring his second goal of the game but his shot went over the bar. After fifteen minutes of play, Stan Godell’s pass rebounded off Chris Brophy’s head to give the locals a 3-0 lead. MSU goalie Walter Koster had an easy time throughout the second half of the contest as much of the play was held in the Brampton end. Ron Godell increased the winners lead with his second goal and a few seconds before the final whistle, Pat Woodbyrne caught the Brampton goalkeeper off balance as his hard shot forced the goalie to step back over the line clutching the ball. This counted the winners fifth tally. Brampton accepted the loss like good sportsmen. The local players felt that on a more even field they could have played a better game. Stan Godell was the star of the contest, performing well both on defence and forward.

He registered 14 strike outs. He allowed 5 hits and walked 4. He fanned the side in one, two, three order in the visitors final turn at the plate. Rumney’s control was excellent and his fast ball was catching the corners.

Howard Mashinter connected for a triple and a single. Ed. McPherson hit a double. Bud Lehman has become a “jack of all sports”, whether it be baseball, hockey, soccer or softball, it’s quite possible he will be found in the lineup. On Monday night he performed at second base for the Sluggers. Although he enjoyed little luck at the plate he worked well at his infield position, handling six putouts including a line drive. In five times at bat he worked the opposing pitchers for three walks. He was a strike out victim in the fourth and popped out in the eighth. The ‘56 S. Ontario Champs, Brooklin’s Stevenson Motors, will be the visitors here on Monday evening. In the last meeting between the two teams, Stouffville upset their rivals by a score of 5-3.

SOCCER TEAM RALLIES TO BEAT BRADFORD 5-5
Trailing 3-1 in the second half of their game with Bradford here on Saturday night, the Stouffville-Markham soccer squad staged a four goal rally to pull the contest out of the fire and win 5-3. The game had been previously scheduled for the Bradford Park but the location was changed when the homesters were unable to obtain suitable home grounds. Willy Assinck opened the scoring for the MSU team and in the early stages it appeared likely that the locals would chalk up an easy victory. However, before half time Bradford had booted two goals behind goal keeper Wally Koster. A crowded defence was responsible for the first Bradford tally and a few minutes later the centre-forward for the visitors put the ball between the posts. At half time the homesters appeared to regain their form but when one of their defencemen handled the ball, Bradford made no mistake with a penalty kick to lead 3-1. From that point the Stouffville-Markham club threw everything into the attack. Stan Godell made it 3-2 scoring on a penalty kick chris Brophy tied he score at 33 and Pat Woodbyrne sewed up the contest for the locals scoring two goals in a row. The management was very dissatisfied with the homesters’ efforts when given an opportunity to score on penalty kicks. The locals were awarded four such kicks and missed on three of them. Chris Brophy missed two and Pat Woodbyrne missed one. Stan Godell converted one Bradford penalty into a goal. On Saturday evening of this week, Aurora ii will be the visitors here. Kick-off time has been scheduled for 7 o’clock. JUVENILES LOSE TO MARKHAM JUNIORS 7-3 I OPENER

They added a pair in the third and single tallies in the second and fourth. Stouffville’s lone run came in the 4th.

Stouffville jumped into an early 1 lead and held this edge until the fifth inning. In the fatal fifth, however, the visitors rallied with a pair of runs on four hits to even the count. Five runs in the sixth and eight in the seventh sewed the game up for Oshawa. Home runs by Graggs and Nesbitt and a triple by Luke were the payoff blows for the Motor City crew. Audrey Morrison started on the mound for Stouffville and worked 6 and one-third innings. Joan Raymer took over in relief and finished the high-scoring tilt. Mary Cole completed the battery. A few scattered hits and a number of costly errors were mainly responsible for the local’s loss. Gwen Kennedy was absent from her regular short stop position and was sorely missed. Marg Smith performed well at second. Ex-Unionville player, Mavis Trunk patrolled right field with Betty Brooks in the centre field position. Joan Raymer worked at left until taking over on the mound. Doreen Jarvis covered at third and Edna Stickley handled the trapper at first. The Stouffville club plays under the light in Memorial Park every Wednesday night.

ORILLIA FALLS APART, ROLL TO EASY 7-2 VICTORY
Well, it would appear at the present time that the Stouffville Clippers are pretty sure bets for a playoff berth and for the fourth year in a row they have climbed into the money series at the expense of Orillia. The Pontiacs looked at times like ancient Model T’s and their situation grew gradually worse as the game wore on. The arrival of the playing coach Red Favoro midway through the third period produced a sigh of relief from the 1800 fans but the $1000 import was tied up like a roped steer. The great Kewley came out go hibernation to guard the Orillia net and the Clipper marksmen took advantage of his lack of practice to sink seven pucks behind him. At the other end of the arena Blake Eatough came up with his usual steady performance to mark him as one of the best in the group. Such puck chasers as Stark, Gibson, N. Bangay continued to give the local squad an edge over their northern rivals. Mark Mills, the new arrival to the Stouffville rearguard, played a star’s role handing out some of the most effective checks of the game as well as notching a goal and picking up two assists.
At 11.30 of the second period Orillia tied the game 2-2. Herb Rose made it 3-2 with assists from Nick Bangay and G. Lewis. Hal Gibson ended the scoring in the second period with a quick wrist shot.
In the third period the Clippers walked around the Orillia defence with ease. Nick Bangay put his team up three goals when his angle shot caught the far corner of the cage. Tempers flared and for a brief second we thought George Stark’s hockey days were finished when Murray Richardson turned his hockey stick into an axe and nearly scalped the Clipper winger. At 6.32 Ronnie bell duplicated Hal Gibson’s solo rush with the sixth Stouffville goal and Stark ended the scoring at 12.53. CLIPPERS GIVE A SPARKLING DISPLAY, DOWN OSHAWA 5-3
Stouffville Clippers amazed their jubilant supporters on Saturday night as they turned in one of their most spectacular performances of the season in downing the league leading Oshawa Smith Truckmen by a score of 5-3. The victory moved Bob Bangay’s boys within five points of the pace setters. All three forward lines worked like a smooth running machine and the make-shift defence played heads-up hockey throughout the game. The Clipper playing coach who has played almost every position has moved back to a defence position in place of the in injured Bert Baker and looks like a second Butch Bouchard standing on the blueline. Time and again the Oshawa attackers cruised into the Stouffville zone only to have the puck stolen by Coach Bangay. Bob also set up some beautiful plays when shorthanded.
George Stark, one of the most sensational players ever to carry a hockey stick, notched two goals and assisted on another. The Clippers top scorer is without a doubt one of the most deceptive players as he can completely deceive both the players and the fans with his free-wheeling style.
The addition of Mark Mills to the Clipper rearguard has played an important part in Stouffville’s bid for that important playoff berth. His clean body checks plus a hard shot has made him one of the Clipper’s number one stars. LEAF, CANADIANS SCORE SHUTOUTS IN LIONS NHL

To Complicate matters, Frank Weinholt, star goaltender with Boston, was clipped for eight stitches and had to be replaced by defenceman Doug Grenstead. he was later replaced by another Bruin rearguard Bob Lonsdale who turned in a good puck-stopping effort despite the loss. Todd guarded the twine for the Leafs. Don Haynes, playing hi third game in as many days notched eight goals while Wayne Redshaw scored four. Dean Evans, Ken Dean, and Ron Hedges tallied singles.
In the other game Steve Wideman paced the Canadiens to victory with two goals with Spencely gaining credit for the other. BANTAMS TOO MUCH FOR SUTTON IN OMHA PLAYOFF

Two goals in less than two minutes enabled the Peterboro Petes to score a 6-5 victory over the Clippers on Wednesday night in a somewhat ragged and scrambly hockey game. The win enabled the Petes to remain within striking distance of Kingston who hold the last playoff position in the Eastern division. Peterboro must win all of their remaining games in the schedule if they are to make a playoff berth.
The Clippers failed to show the winning form that carried them to their thrilling victory overt the Oshawa Truckmen but were rather content to coast along and wait for the breaks. In spite of the slack exhibition turned in by the local squad the Petes were lucky to win as they were trailing by one goal with mere minutes remaining in the game. Two minutes, however, was plenty of time as the visitors notched two tallies in a minute and twelve seconds to pull the game out of the fire. Norm Stunden who guarded the net for the Clippers was pulled in favour of an extra forward in the final seconds but the Petes checked the opposition off their feet.
With Mills serving a tripping penalty Freddie Greenlaw scored at 17.30 and Fred Mortimer notched the all important winner at 18.42 to give his team the much needed victory. Eddie Hodgson and Red Farrell handled the game and D. Lewis and Bell notched his second tally of the night with a beautiful goal going under Harding’s pads with assists going to Stephenson. BELLEVILLE BLANKS CLIPPERS 2-0 IN GOLTENDERS BATTLE
Stouffville Clippers went down to defeat at the hands of Belleville 2-0 in a game that saw both goaltenders, Blake Eatough of the Clippers and Tony Parisi of Belleville turn in outstanding performances. Parisi in holding the Clippers off the score board was credited with his first shut out of the season and the second perfect to be played by any goaltender in the group so far in the schedule. At the other end of the ice, Eatough played his usual steady game that has marked him as the best in the group. It was an important victory for the eastern crew as it just about assured them of a playoff berth. They were situated three points ahead of Peterboro and have two games left to play. The loss for the Clippers failed to alter their standing as Orillia automatically dropped out some time ago.
Both teams battled to a scoreless deadlock in the first period with belleville counting their first tally at 11.37. Red Doron was given credit for the goal as assists going to McDonald and Goyer. The Clippers were playing two men short at the time with Bell and Gibson serving time in the penalty box.
Belleville salted the game away at 12.01 of the final frame when Peter Jones and Ted McGray teamed up for a tally. There were nine penalties handed out by referees, five to Stouffville and four to Belleville. Right winger George Stark didn’t see much action in the third period as he sat out a total of twelve minutes in the cooler. Stark was banished to the box fro a tripping penalty and while enroute to the sin bin he came in contact with one of the officials who promptly tacked on a ten minute misconduct penalty. BANTAMS BOW TO ORANGEVILLE IN WELL-PLAYED SERIES

The Lions bowling league comprising the members of the Stouffville Lions accompanied by their wives and lady friends has now definitely organized for the season with six captains, namely Len Wilkes, Vic Atkinson, George Pearce, Ron Smith, Bill Ford and Cliff salmon.

Atkinson’s “Overdrafts” defeated Wilkes’ “Stuffed Shirts” 3-1; Pearce’s “Pink Pills” downed Smith’s “Quacks” 3-2 and Ford’s :V-Eighths” walloped Salmon’s “High-Lights” 4-0.

Stouffville Clippers received a shot in the arm, so to speak, this week when Frank Stevenson rejoined the team after his injury in the final game of the schedule. Also joining the club for the third game of the series at Oshawa this Wednesday is Don Irwin, top Big Six Junior ‘B’ scorer last year and coach of the Unionville Jets this season. The two will be a welcome addition to the injury-plagued Clippers.
Mystery surround Stephenson’s return to the team. He was removed to Oshawa Hospital following his injury in the Motor City on Sunday afternoon two weeks ago. There he was X-rayed, pronounced to have a shoulder separation, thoroughly taped up and sent home , presumably for the balance of the season. Frank was not satisfied that his shoulder was injured to any extensive degree and went through a second X-ray examination by local physician Dr. John Button on Saturday night — the result — no sign of injury and frank is ready to take to the ice again tonight.
This will put the club at full strength again for the first time in many weeks and should add greatly to the local squad’s chances against the powerful Truckmen.
Stouffville’s goalie Blake Eatough finished the regular senior hockey season as top man in the goal-tending department with an average of 4.07 for 28 games. Reading of Orillia was second with the same average but only 15 games played. Naylor of Oshawa was close behind Eatough with an average of 4.30 for 23 games

OSHAWA LEADS IN PLAYOFF SERIES
After staging a sensational three goal comeback in the third period of the semi-final opener in Oshawa on Wednesday night, the Stouffville Clippers sat back and allowed the Truckmen to organize a fatal rush that ended with George Samalenko rolling the puck into the corner of the Clipper cage on passes from Scott and Dickens. The Motor City squad led 2-1 at the end of the first, 4-1 at the end of the second and 5-4 at the final bell. Samalenko counted two goals for the winners with Scott, Hooper and Wilson notching the others. Jack Watson, Nick Bangay, Minton and Gibson were the goal scorers for Stouffville.
Stouffville Clippers led by right winger George Stark came from behind on two occasions to gain a 2-2 overtime tie with Oshawa Smith Truckmen on Saturday night to stay in the running in the semi-final series. The Clippers allowed the Motor City crew to take a one goal lead both in regulation time and in the overtime only to stage a last ditch rally and deadlock the score. Stark’s first goal came with but thirty-two seconds remaining in the game and his second counter with less than two minutes remaining in overtime. The Truckmen have two stars which have provided the most grief for Bob Bangay’s boys in George Samalenko and Gerry Scott. These front line forwards must be covered on every move.
Tempers flared and the wrath of the crowd descended on the officials in the second period when a number of cheap penalties were handed out to the Stouffville Club. Nick Bangay was the first to enter the detention sear for ten minutes misconduct penalty and shortly was joined by defenceman Mike Mills when an Oshawa player tumbled over his outstretched stick and referee hefting penalized Mills for tripping. The climax came when winger George Stark went crashing to the ice as he attempted to cross the blueline. No penalty was called but when the Clipper forward pulled himself together and skated to the circle he came in contact with Referee hefting and the official went spinning to the ice. Stark was immediately banished to the box for ten minutes to keep iNc Bangay company. Spectators littered the ice with programs in protest and the game was delayed until the surface could be cleared. The Stouffville squad found themselves in dire circumstances when Ronnie Bell was helped off the ice after being hit hard on the boards and Jack Watson was cut for stitches on the forehead and had to leave the game. Both players returned to the game with Watson looking like Captain Kidd having just returned from a mid-Atlantic robbery.
The third period was a hectic battle with Naylor in the nets for the Truckers warding off one Clipper after another. Both Stark and B. Bangay were outlucked on close-in chances. Stark finally lifted the rubber over the prostate form of Naylor with but thirty-two seconds remaining in the game. Nelson was serving a penalty at the time.
The overtime session had the spectators chewing their fingernails and sitting on the edge of their seats. The Clippers chances almost hit rock bottom at 4.15 as Holden scored from McBeth and Boniface but the old reliable forward, George Stark came through for the second tome to blaze Gord Lewis’ rebound into the cage. The Truckers outshot the Clippers 25-16 on the night’s play. BOWLING NEWS

CLIPPERS BOW OUT OF HOCKEY PLAYOFFS TO A SUPERIOR OSHAWA CLUB
We have seen many close games won and lost but never have we witnessed a heart-breaking defeat as that which occurred on Saturday night. With less than two minutes to play in the crucial contest, winger Frank Stephenson was thumbed to the penalty box for high sticking in the corner. Hardly had the puck been dropped when George Stark fell to the ice and due to the terrific tension of the game he grabbed the puck and held it for a whistle. Immediately he was banished to join ohs team mate in the cooler. The Motor City crew suddenly found themselves playing five men to three and they poured into the attack with all the power at their disposal. With less than a minute to play, Samolenko sifted a low backhander into the Clipper cage.

LEAF, CANADIENS BATTLE TO 2-2 TIE IN LIONS N.H.L.
Albert Smalley’s Toronto Maple Leafs and Bill Mulholland’s Canadiens battled to a 2-2 deadlock on Saturday morning in a thrilling Lions N.H.L. semi-final contest. Ron Policy, sharp-shooting Leaf forward, put the Toronto squad in the lead for a greater part of the game but the canadiens fought back in the final minute to notch the tying marker. Ron McCullough and Ron Stewart were the Montreal marksmen.
In the second game, the Boston Bruins dropped a heart-breaker to the Chicago Black Hawks 1-0. The Hawks winning goal came in the final seconds from the stick of Don Neale. The Chicago forward had previously missed a number of chances but made no mistake as he pushed the rubber under goaltender Frank Weinholt in the last play of the game. The Boston goaltender was one of the stars blocking many determined hawks attacks. Benson and Lonsdale played well on defence while Harmon led the Bruins attack up front.

Lloyd McLean held the lucky ticket for the all expense tour to New York and Fred Abraham was the winner of a handsome wrist watch. HAYNES FIRES SEVEN GOALS AS LEAFS DOWN BOSTON 8-6
The Boston Bruins called in practically all the reserve player strength in the Lions N.H.L. on Saturday morning in order to hold the rampaging Toronto Maple Leafs from running up an overwhelming score. Don Haynes, the jet propelled forward with a bullet shot, has a field day as he notched seven of the eight Toronto goals. Bruin goaltender, Frank Weinholt pulled off a number of sensational saves or the score might easily have reached the double figures. Murray Holden was the top marksman for Boston with two goals.

This week it is hats off to Ross Madill, locaL bantam star and member of the Chicago Black Hawks in the Lions N.H.L. On Saturday morning the Hawks trounced the Canadiens to the tune of 12-1 and Ross counted seven of the one dozen goals. The pint-sized speedster is one of the craftiest stick handlers in the League and during the regular Bantam schedule he rose to number two position in the goal scoring race. T.H.L. BRINGS OUT THE TRUE “DESIRE” FOR SPORT
by Jim Thomas
Why do hockey players drive fifty or sixty miles two night a week in order to play forty minutes of hockey? Why do these same players pay 50c out of their own pockets per game plus the referee fees immediately following the contest? In the majority of cases it is the true love of the sport in the heart of each individual that makes the T.H.L. the largest organized league in the world. In many teams who operate in the T.H.L. there is a firm or company that puts up enough money to equip the club with proper sweaters but from then on the team is strictly on its own. it is true that many stars of today got their start on the road to success by joining a T.H.L. club but the number is quite slim in comparison with those who play for the mere fun of playing. the same plan is true of referees. These officials drive their cars throughout Toronto and the suburbs, in all kinds of weather and road conditions, they practically freeze to death while handling five hours of hockey a night and arrive home in the small hours of the morning for a mere $7.50 a night. Certainly these men do not expect to retire from their earnings but without them the League could not operate. Sure, someday they might be boosted into the O.H.A. ranks where the pay is worthwhile but until that time arrives they are content to offer their services for the good of the Sport. There was talk at one time that this league would disband for want of financial aid but while there is hockey-loving young men within a fifty mile radius of Toronto the league should continue to survive. At the present time the T.H.L. is using two to four nights a week for games in the Stouffville Arena. They have two entries this year in the juveniles under the nameplate of Stouffville A.C. and Peaches A.C. which are grouped in the Intermediate class. HAWKS SMOTHER CANADIENS 12-1
Bill Rockmaster’s Chicago Black Hawks almost white-washed Mulholland’s Montreal’s on Saturday morning as they chalked up a one-sided 12-1 victory. Ross Madill was the main cog in the Hawks smooth working machine as he notched seven goals. Don Neale and Tran were also big guns for the winners. In a desperate effort to turn the tide Coach Mulholland threw his first line speedster, Steve Wideman out on the second line to shadow Neale but the Hawks countered with Madill to further complicate matters. Referees Davis and Peake halted the play and both teams returned to regular lines. Some of the coaches consider second line forward Don Neale to be of first line calibre but at the present time the Hawks number one line is packed so the coach is forced to use him on the number two line. The Hawks need a win in order to stay within striking distance of the Leafs who are leading the group at the present time.
In the other game the Leafs scored their second straight victory over the Bruins by a score of 5-2. Don Haynes once again led the winners attack with three goals. Wayne Redshaw and Ken Policy counted the others. Gord Tarr and Harvey Skeltcher were the marks men for Boston. Skeltcher’s goal acme on a clean-cut breakaway and Tarr’s on a three-way passing effort in front of the Leaf net. Goaltender Frank Weinholt came up with another good game in the Boston cage warding off many labelled drives from the Leafs’ trigger-man Don Haynes. The desperate Bruins called on the services of forward Eddie Saunders to fill a gap in their first line as a number of players once again failed to show up in time for the game. PEACHES BLANK LANGLEYS 6-0
Peaches A.C. chalked up their fourth victory in five starts on Monday night, Unionville as they blanked Langley 6-0 and a Clancy Intermediate contest. Goaltender Jack Warriner scored his second shutout of the season with a faultless game between the pipes for the winners. M. Grove started the ball rolling for the seventh concession squad when his rising shot bounced off a defenceman’s back and into the corner of the net past the amazed goaltender. Centreman Denny Smith suddenly caught fire and blazed three successive tallies and Clarence Fockler made it 5-0 with a quick backhand drive from about ten feet out, M. Grove ended the game with a solo rush and made no mistake as he whipped the puck into the top corner of the cage.
On Tuesday night of last week Peaches led by Senior centreman Gord Lewis smothered Hoopers A.C. by a score of 10-2. Lewis counted five goals while Wilf Lawrenson counted three. J. Thomas and H. Lewis each notched singles. On Thursday night in Unionville the local squad suffered their first loss of the current Clancy schedule as they bowed to Lewis’ Cartage 5-2. Peaches made a major switch in their lineup for this game as J. Thomas donned the heavy pads and Jack Warriner filled the gap at left wing. The locals were shorthanded for the game having but one complete line, toe defencemen and two extras. Gord Lewis and D, Smith accounted for the two Peaches goals. JUVENILES MEET MARLBOROS FRIDAY
The local juvenile entry in the King Clancy League under the nameplate if Stouffville A.C. will meet their supreme test when they face Marlboros, one of the many links in the chain belonging to Smythe and Company. These fellows put everything they’ve got into the game in hopes that they will be selected for the junior ranks next season.
Last week the local squad captured their second straight win by a score of 402. Bruce Fockler paced the winners attack with a pair with singles going to Grant Wagg and Harold Hodgson

Skating Club Carnival Receives High Acclaim
The Stouffville Skating Club staged one of the most brilliant ice spectacles ever witnessed in the local arena on Friday night. The Highland Fling, Strolling Thru the Park and other numbers presented by the Stouffville club were well received by over one thousand spectators. Scarboro and Unionville skating clubs were welcome additions to the show. The ice in the arena was in perfect condition for the annual event and the decorations and costumes were above all expectations. Two Toronto artists from the Granite Club added a touch of comedy and rhythmic beauty to the sparkling exhibition.
Star of the Week
This week it’s hats off to Murray Lewis, star right-winger on the Peaches Hockey Club. In two games the seventh concession marksman counted six goals and picked up three assists. On Wednesday night in Stouffville he led his team to victory with four goals and the following night in unionville he counted two more. Murray is the brother of Gord Lewis, local Clipper forward now playing with Peaches, and harry Lewis who has held a defence position with the team since the club was first organized three years ago.
Will The T.H.L. Crowd the O.M.H.A. out of Metropolitan Area?
It must be admitted that the Toronto Hockey League is a much needed organization but it can never replace the Ontario Minor Hockey Association here in the Metropolitan Area. A special meeting has been called this week in Toronto to discuss the pros and cons of such an arrangement. Such a scheme would no doubt benefit the T.H.L. but one must take the players into consideration who have played under O.M.H.A. rules and regulations up until the present time. How would the layers feel about the increased expenses connected with T.H.L.? How would a mere forty minutes of hockey in the T.H.L. be accepted in comparison with three full periods allowed in the Ontario Minor Hockey League? Taking all things into consideration it doesn’t sound like a favourable plan but we’ll leave it up to the executives of both organizations to decide the matter. Mr. Jim Austin of Stouffville will be in attendance at this special meeting and his views should certainly carry considerable weight since he is a resident of the Metropolitan Area. Jim is a member of the O.M.H.A. executive. PEACHES STILL WINNING IN THL
Peaches A.C. continue to knock off their opposition with comparative ease in the King Clancy series. On Tuesday night of last week they completely whitewashed Langley’s Cleaners by a score of 13-0. Murray Lewis led the locals attack with four goals while D. Thomas lit the light on three occasions. Single goals went to G. Lewis, M. Grove, J. Grove, J. Lawrence, D. Smith and H. Lewis. On Thursday night the seventh concession turned their guns on Grant Nighswanders’ Real Estate crew and came out at the top end of a 5-1 count. Murray lewis and dent Smith were two goal man for the winners with D. Thomas firing the other. On Monday night they downed Lewis cartage 5-1 Clarence Fockler returned to the lineup after a week’s lay-off to score two goals. L. Grove, H. Lewis, M. Lewis and J. Thomas were the other marksmen.

Stouffville has given notice that they will definitely be an entry in the Markham Township Softball League this season. Already numerous players in town and district have shown an interest in joining the club and it is hoped that a powerful squad might be organized. If Stouffville go ahead with their plans they will enter into the OASA at the conclusion of the regular season. The idea of bringing in teams west of Yonge St. might not be popular with such clubs as Stouffville and Claremont where distance would prove a major problem. A meeting will be held at the home of the president, Mr. Bob Rae, Unionville on Friday night of this week. A representative from each club is expected to be in attendance.

Distant Clubs Barred from Markham Twp. Softball League
The Markham Twp Softball League took a step in the right direction on Friday night when they turned down entry bids from clubs west of Yonge St. Both Woodbridge and Swansea were seeking admittance into the popular group. One can imagine the difficulty involved for a team such as Claremont to travel over twenty miles to Woodbridge and be ready for a game at 7.30 in the evening. When all the pros and cons are studied it is not really necessary to have entries from such far-off places. No matter where softball is played it is doubtful whether you could find a better group then right here in the Markham Township League. If the ball was not of such a high standard these other suburban towns would not be seeking entry. They can have their opportunity to knock off our best in the OASA. A fine local league finals if they wish to enter. At the present time eight teams have filed entries in the group and all clubs are within a thirty minute drive of each other. A fine local league has been built up; let’s keep it that way.
Stan Miller “Warms Up” in Sunny South
Stouffville’s star hurler, Stan Miller will complete his spring training with the Deland Red Hats in Florida this week and the schedule will get underway next week. The lanky speed ball artist arrived in the Sunny South by plane early in April and has been burning them over the plate ever since. Stan starred with Deland of the St. Louis chain last year and was a welcomed addition to the club again this season.
Home Run Fence More Than 500 Feet away From Local Baseballers
You would have to be more than a Mickey Mantle or a et Williams to smash the ball over Stouffville’s home run fence. For the past two years the local club have been patiently anticipating the erection of such an outfield barrier but so far their hopes have developed into nothing but pipe dreams. What’s the use of a player breaking his back in order to lift the ball out of the park when an opposing outfielder can retrieve the ball by merely jumping over the present low lying fence and holding the runner to a double or triple? Park officials feel that such a construction would mar the beauty of the park but for our money it would greatly enhance its landscape because it would hide much of the brush and bushes that have grown up at the rear of the park roadway.
Markham’s Morley Petch — Three Championships in One Year
Three championships in one year is the record chalked up by Markham’s Morley Petch. It was only last spring that the Stouffville Clippers brought home the O.H.A. Sr. b silverware and Morley certainly was one of the main cogs in that powerful machine. Hardly had the skates and pads been stored away in moth balls when the softball season started and Markham rolled on to a thrilling OASA Intermediate championship. Morley held down the short stop position with that club. And now at the conclusion of another hockey year this same rugged rearguard finds himself on a Sr. ORHA Championship team. This is truly an enviable recode. one that any athlete would be proud to attain.
Markham Softball League To Investigate Player Insurance
The officials of the Markham Township softball league are seriously considering the adoption of player insurance for each individual player, manager or coach who signs a O.A.S.A. certificate. The league must first affiliate with the O.A.S.A. before the insurance can be obtained. The insurance plan covers each individual who signs a certificate and forwards one dollar with his entry. The plan pays $250.00 maximum indemnity for hospital expenses resulting from injury sustained on the playing field during a game or practice or while traveling under the supervision of the team manager. The plan pays $20.00 maximum indemnity to injuries to sound teeth incurred under the same conditions. $500.00 indemnity will be paid in the event of accidental death. The cost is certainly cheap considering the protection received. EARL COOK TO COACH SOFTBALLERS
Earl Cook, Stouffville’s ex big league hurler will come out of retirement this season to handle the coaching duties of the newly organized Stouffville Softball Club. The other members of the executive will be: President, Harold Dixon; Vice-President, Ken Betz; Manager, Ted Edwards; Publicity, W.S. Hilliard; Cap’t Jerry Hooker; Sec.-Treas., Garfield Brown; Umpire, Len Buckland. The team will hold their first practice on Monday evening at 6.30pm and all those interested are asked to be on hand. The squad will be decked out in white uniforms with green for their first scheduled contest in three weeks time. VALUABLE PRIZES OFFERED FOR BOWLING TOURNEY

The Chicago Back Hawks coached by Bill Bockmaster captured the Stouffville Lions Club N.H.L. Championship on Saturday morning as they racked up a 4-1 win over their arch rivals, the Toronto Maple Leafs. Going into the game, the Hawks held a one point lead but a win for the Leafs would have turned the tables completely. The contest was a bitterly fought battle form the drop of the puck and it wasn’t until midway through the game that either club could find an opening. Albert Smalley’s Leafs jumped into the lead as Wayne Redshaw beat goalie Wilkes in the Hawk cage but from that point on it was all Chicago in the goal scoring department. Clive Jones connected for two goals while madill and Norm Hendricks counted singles to sew up the game. Wilkes turned in a sensational performance in the Chicago net with some spectacular stops. Tran and Madill also looked good for the Champs. This marks the second year that Chicago have walked off with the honours.
On the other game Boston and Montreal battled to a 2-2 draw. The Bruins pulled ahead with two early goals by Herron on a pass from Lonsdale and Gordie Tarr but the Canadiens fought back with Sandy Smith and Steve Wideman beating goalie Frank Weinholt in the Bruin net. The final standing showed Chicago in first place followed by the Leafs, Canadiens and Boston on that order. RICHMOND HILL AND STOUFFVILLE IN MARKHAM LEAGUE
Stouffville and Richmond Hill were accepted into the Markham Township Softball League at an organization meeting held at the home of Mr. Bob Rae on Friday evening. There will be eight clubs in the group this year. Unionville, Claremont, Buttonville, Markham, Peaches and Thornhill will form the other teams in the league. The schedule will begin on May 12th, one day earlier than last year. FLOODLIGHTS MAY BE ERECTED HERE
Rumours have been flying thick and fast in Stouffville that new floodlight may be erected in the softball park. The sponsor of the project whose name cannot be disclosed at this time is an ardent fan and support such as this is certainly appreciated by the club. From all reports Stouffville should be in for some interesting softball games this summer. UMPIRE SCHOOL OPENS NEXT WEEK
The Markham Township softball umpires school will actually become a reality next week. Two persons from each club have been asked to attend and from this group the various plate and base umpires will be selected. An official umpire from Toronto will be on hand to offer practical advise. The school will be conducted at Morgan Park in Markham. LEHMAN FIRES WINNER FOR PEACHES
Bud Lehman came through with the playoff goal on Thursday night of last week to give Peaches a 2-1 edge over East Districts in a King Clancy group contest. Don Thomas notched the opener with a backhand drive to the top corner of the net on passes from Murray Grove and Don Miller. Before the end of the first period the Toronto squad roared back until with but minutes remaining in the contest, Ken Laushway grabbed a loose puck in the peaches zone, carried it to the visitors’ blueline and flipped a pass to Lehman who was steaming in on the Toronto net. His low drive slipped between the goaltender’s skates for the clincher. The victory was the ninth win for Peaches against one defeat in their group. The playoffs will commence next week. Lloyd Grove donned the heavy pads for the game and regular netminder Jack Warriner took up a position on left wing. The rearguard protected the twine like a veteran and it is understood that he may contest harry Lumley for the goaltending chores when the Leafs begin their fall training. “PINHEADS” TOPS IN Y.P.U.

Local OMHA Executive Travels 4,000 Miles a Season
Mr. Jim Austin, Stouffville’s OMHA executive has travelled close to 1,000 miles during the past hockey season to aid in the promotion of minor hockey in Ontario. During this time he has personally conducted five of the fifteen presentations to championship clubs ranging all the way from peterboro to Port Colbourne. In the 1952-53 hockey year just completed the OMHA operated 1.087 teams consisting of 16,655 players. Out of the fifteen series, St Catharines was the only club to claim a championship for the second year. In Juvenile A the Mitchell Hepburn trophy went to St Catharines. Weston captured the O.M. Welchel award emblematic of the Juvenile A (minor) championship, while Wallaceburg was awarded the Lionel Conacher Cup for winning the Juvenile B honours. Blenheim won the Jack Roxborough silverware for Juvenile C and Bolton took the J.L. Christie Juvenile D championship. Toronto Marlboros won the Midget B cup donated by J.H. Stafford. In Midget a (minor), Port Colbourne walked off wit the Herb Parker trophy while Simcoe copped the Midget B award and the Dr. Leon Hipwell cup. Bracebridge won the Midget C title. Lucknow the Midget D and Peterboro the Bantam A (minor). Our neighbour, Newmarket, brought home the A.A. Morrison trophy emblematic of Midget B supremacy. Wingham captured the Midget C silverware and Schomberg was awarded the Midget D championship. STOUFFVILLE BECOMING A SPORTSMAN’S PARADISE
You sports-minded fans who think that Stouffville is backward in the athletic field should take out a pencil and paper and list the activities that are available to all ages and groups throughout the spring, summer, fall and winter. Everyone must admit that with the construction of the new arena, Stouffville took a big step ahead in the sporting limelight. In the winter months, which in our town extend from the early week of October to the last week in April the ice palace is in operation providing pee-wee, midget, bantam and senior hockey as well as numerous community leagues which take advantage of the rink. Considerable time is set aside for public and figure skating during the seven month period also. In the summer months wrestling is enjoyed by many enthusiastic fans while dancing, bingo and other forms of entertainment has its place. Let us now move to the outside where we find three ball clubs in action. There is the famous Stouffville Red Sox baseball squad, the newly organized softball club and a Champion girls team that walked off with the honours last season. Stouffville has two types of bowling to offer; the five pin bowling at the Arena Bowling Centre and lawn bowling which is carried on throughout the summer months in the park. The Stouffville Lions Club completed a fine job of hard-topping the once shameful tennis courts and a tennis club will be formed in a matter of weeks. Those of us who find the above named sports too robust can wander down to a lower section of the park and take up a friendly game of horseshoes. Indeed, Stouffville has, and is blossoming out in the sporting world and with a little hard work on the part os every sports minded citizen this rapid growth will not be short lived. RED SOX PLAN HOLIDAY TOURNEY
The Stouffville Red Sox are making preparations for a team holiday tournament on Monday, May 18th. It is expected that little Britain and Fenelon Falls will provide the opposition.
At a Tri-County League organization meeting held at Seagrave, Ont., of Friday of last week, Johnny Learoy, noted Sutton hockey and baseball star was appointed secretary of the league. Stouffville, Sutton and Little Britain are definite entries in the group while Sunderland and Port Perry are doubtful starters at the present time. LOCAL ARENA PRESENTING NEW WRESTLING SHOW
Commencing in May, the Stouffville Arena will present an entirely new wrestling show here with star mat performers fresh from the United States tours. Many are seasonal grapplers from the Southern States, wrestlers from the grapefruit belt where Toronto’s film TV wrestling shows originate.
Next week’s Tribune will carry a full card for the first show. One of the featured performers from Chicago will be O’Toole, the wild Irishman, a 225 pounder. In the semi-final on opening night, local fans will be treated to a real thriller when the Masked Red Demon from Florida, a drop kick specialist, will match muscles. PEACHES IN CLANCY FINALS
Peaches A.C. came up with two important wins on Saturday and Monday nights to enter the King Clancy Intermediate finals. On Saturday night at Unionville they battled Lewis cartage in their first semi-final encounter and edged their rivals by a score of 2-1. Lewis struck for the opening tally midway through the first period and held the lead going into the final half. Peaches evened the count as Murray Lewis fired a low drive into the bottom corner on passes from D. Smith and J. Thomas. Both teams tried desperately to notch that all-important clincher but the goaltenders held the fort in spectacular style. With but five minutes remaining in the game, J. Thomas picked up a loose puck inside the opposition’s blueline mad backhanded the rubber int the corner to give Peaches a one goal lead. Th seventh concession continued to press and in the final minute of play, M. Lewis drove a bullet shot behind the goaltender but the officials claimed the puck had bounced off the post and the goal was not allowed. Peaches played the game with but six forwards, two defencemen and a goaltender.
On Monday night the local assured themselves a spot in the group finals as they downed Lewis Cartage 3-1 to clinch the series. D. Thomas with two goals was the main cog in the Peaches machine. His first tied the score on a quick pass from M. Grove and his second tally came on a wild scramble around the opposition cage with the goaltender sprawled completely out of position. D. Lewis sewed the game up in the final minute when he teed off from the face off in his own zone and golfed the puck down the ice into the empty net while the goaltender sat on the bench in favour of an extra forward.

Co-Operation is the Secret of Success
The plan of erecting floodlights in the v memorial park has brought out Th. full meaning of the word “co-operation” not only among individuals but among organizations. Before such a plan was visualized each sporting activity acted solely on its own. The baseball p[layers looked after baseball while the softball club operated in an entirely separate category. Now every team will share the same diamond, the same lighting facilities, the same bleachers and the same screen. Of course in order that such a plan might work smoothly both sides must make concessions. The baseball team will have to cut down their mound for softball purposes, but in turn they may in future be able to make use of the of eighty foot poles that are being erected in the park and also add necessary lights for night baseball. The Red Sox will be able to make use of the softball lights for infield practice at least. Aside from ball there are many activities that may be carried on once the floodlights are installed.
Get in the Swing. Join the Tennis Club
Now is the time for you ardent tennis enthusiasts to scrounge through the attic and dig out that almost forgotten racquet in preparation for a summer of fun and enjoyment. A few years ago the interest in the sport was high, but the condition of the courts became gradually worse until only a few of the most ardent racketeers would challenge each other for a game. Those who refused to play on the weed-covered court have taken up the sport of badminton. Now the local Lions Club has provided a new hard top on the courts the membership is expected to increase rapidly. At the first meeting some thirty members were on hand to give the organization a boost.
Athletic Executive Needed Here
The town of Stouffville is fast approaching the stage where it will be necessary to form an athletic executive which will have complete control over all sports activities both in the park and in the arena. It would be necessary to engage an athletic supervisor which would be a salaried position and he in turn would select assistants who would probably be representatives from each of the town’s organizations. Any disagreements that might arise between clubs or payers would be handled by this impartial committee. Such a group would be of a great assistance in the promoting of minor sport here instead of the burden falling on the shoulders of a few interested individuals. Perhaps out town is not large enough to warrant an expense of this nature but it is certainly worth considering when we see interest in sport rapidly increasing year after year.
Take Me Out to the Ball Game
On Tuesday, May 12th, the old cry of “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” will be heard in Stouffville, Markham.

Richmond Hill will journey south to Thornhill, Unionville will visit Peaches and Woodbridge will battle Buttonville. Eight teams will comprise the group with Richmond Hill, Stouffville and Woodbridge being new entries this year.

This event will be a best two out of three falls with a one hour time limit. A very interesting semi-final card will feature The red Demon of Florida against Pete Raimon of Niagara Falls. The former mat man is masked and it will be his opponent’s task to reveal the identity of his mysterious rival. The preliminary event will match Don Ireland of Oshawa against Ted Swift of Niagara Falls. PEACHES WIN CLANCY INTER. GROUP TITLE
Peaches A.C. captured the King Clancy group championship on Thursday night of last week as East Districts decided to drop out of a playoff competition and default. The two clubs battled to a 1-1 stalemate on Thursday night in the Scarboro arena and the return engagement was scheduled for Unionville on the following Saturday. The Toronto squad however, claimed that it was impossible for them to compete in further competition and defaulted the Championship.
The Toronto crew counted the first goal on a close-in drive but Peaches tied up the contest with Don Miller picking Th. corner on a pass from J. Lawrenson. Neither club could blink the light during the remaining minutes.

Stouffville Memorial Park To Receive “New York”
The local Memorial Park will be all part of Stouffville’s large scale beautification program that is being carried out here during the next few weeks. The old grandstand, which has been a park eyesore for many years is to be torn down and it is likely a new one will take its place. A new fence is being planned along the south and east side of the “stadium” and a modern park scoreboard is to be erected. An all-new fence is to be built around the tennis court to keep any wild balls fro bouncing across the bowling green, With the addition of modern floodlights, Stouffville can proudly boast of one of the most up-to-date parks for its size in the county.

What’s The Hold Up?
Last fall all the softball players who make use of the park as a home diamond canvassed the town in an effort to scrape up $3,000 to install an up-to-date lighting system. Now after seven months there is still no sign that the job will be completed this summer. The poles arrived over a month ago but have not moved since their arrival. Following numerous inquiries there seems to be no sound explanation for the delay.
Banquet For Bowlers
The Stouffville United Church Young Peoples Society wound up their bowling schedule on Friday night with a chicken banquet at Oak Ridges. Following the dinner, Mr Ross Winterstein presented captain Lorne Boadway with the Stouffville Sand and Gravel trophy emblematic of the Young Peoples championship. Those on the team besides the captain were Marion Murphy, Jean and Maurice Halsted, Connie Lewis and Murray redshaw. When the final scores were counted up Pat Lehman topped the girls with the highest average while Lorne Boadway headed the men’s class.
CAHA To Clamp Down
The Canadian Amateur Hockey Association introduces a number of proposals at its general meeting held at Niagara Falls last week, A move to silence any profane protests from players in Th. penalty box was introduced and such a resolution would certainly be a step in the right direction. Another move to curb the short-handed club from icing the puck was introduced. Such a plan would throw terrific pressure on the defending club, but it might aid in cutting down the number of penalties in a game. The motion to ban the “slap shot” from hockey was defeated. Such penalties as kneeing, boarding, tripping, cross-checking and charging are to be strictly adhered to by the officials and major penalties will be handed out when warranted. It was suggested that any player who shoots a puck at a goaltender after play has been stopped should be given a misconduct penalty. WM. GROVE TAKES SINGLE HONOURS IN HORSESHOES
Stouffville competitors placing a first and a second in he suburban singles horseshoe tournament held at the Richmond Hill Fair on Monday. Wm. Grove was high man and Herb Simpson of Ballantrae placed second. Stouffville four-man Sr team also made a creditable showing against some strong Toronto opposition. They came in second only three points back of East Toronto Beaches who walked off with first prize honours.
The Stouffville entry was made up of the following players: Herb Simpson, Wm Grove, Charlie Preston and Harvey Glendenning. Some 75 contestants took part in the tournament.
The new screen surrounding the local tennis court will be completed this week. The courts are in fine shape and the fences greatly enhances its appearance. ARENA CO. TO SPONSOR SENIOR HOCKEY IN ’54
The Stouffville Arena Co. will operate the Sr. ‘B’ Clippers next season. It is hoped that an entry might be made in the Metropolitan Area League, a scheme that was planned but fell through when other clubs failed to co-operate. It is expected that two-thirds of the players who preformed under the Clipper colours will be back again. The idea of withdrawing from the metropolitan Area in favour of an Intermediate ‘A’ Club was discouraged. It was thought that the Intermediate competition would not appeal to the fans who had become familiar with the thrilling hockey displayed in the Sr ‘B’ category. TO HONOUR BOWLING CHAMPS
Five local bowlers will be battling right down to the wire on Friday night to determine the tournament champion. Those in the running are Walt Smith, Ted Cadieux, Earl Crowder, Tom Johnston and Joe Murray Sr.

No Baseball For The Younger Boys?
Are the young lads of this town to be deprived of playing baseball for the want of a few balls and a couple of coaches? Up to the present time no organization has taken up the torch for the fellows of Bantam and Pee-Wee age groups. What they need is financial assistance in the amount of $50, to purchase equipment and a number of interested managers to organize a two or three team House League, Year after year the operation of the Intermediate, Juvenile and Bantam ball clubs have been left in the hands of a few willing sport promoters until the load has become too great and they find they must relinquish a portion of their duties and rightly so. From this age group came replacements for the Juveniles and so on up the line until they can perform with the Intermediate Red Sox. These fellows don’t ask for uniforms, gloves or spikes, but they do need bats, balls and leadership. Let’s get something started before the summer slips away.

Charge Illegal Umpiring
The first official protest of the young Markham Twp. softball season is in the hands of the Secretary, Mr. E.J. Appleton following the game played here between Stouffville and Buttonville. The Shamrock management claim illegal calls on the part of the plate umpire.
The incident occurred while Stouffville were taking their turn at bat. With a runner on second base, a fly ball was hit into the outfield where it was caught. Plate umpire Bill Hood claimed the Stouffville runner failed to tag up at second and called him out. Base umpire Len Buckland argued that the runner did re-trace his steps and tag the second sac before he advanced to another base after the catch. The plate ump. However overruled the decision much to the dislike of Stouffville players and supporters. The League officials will take up the issue as soon as possible. WALT SMITH WINS CHAMPIONSHIP
Walt Smith, winner of the Bowling Tournament was presented with a cash award of $50 and the trophy. Earl Crowder obtained $15, Ted cadieux $10 and Tom Johnston $5.

Mr. Art Latcham and the Stouffville Parks Commission have called for new tenders for the purpose of erecting the floodlights in Memorial Park. It is the desire of the Commission to wire the park for an eighty light system and install thirty-six for the present time. Word has been received that the price of installation for Markham’s system is considerably higher than expected. Close top $3,000 has been collected and it was thought that this amount would be sufficient to cover the cost of installation.

Clipper Management Files Entry in Easy York League
In an effort to cut down on the long-distance trips, the Stouffville Clipper management has filed an entry in the East York League. Lays year the same plan was organized but it fell through when a number of teams pulled out. The Clippers have always been a big drawing card in the East Toronto arenas and might put a new spark of life in the sagging attendance at these games. The local squad in turn would certainly benefit from the short jaunts to such arenas as Weston, Scarboro and East York. The players discovered that the long 150 mile trip to Kingston, Belleville and other distant centres proved not only expensive but very tiresome. Six clubs have filed entries at the present time. Stouffville, Weston, Brampton, Scarboro, Easy York and Woodbridge.
As Others See Us
Following the game played in Sutton in which the local red Sox defeated the Tri-County rivals by a score of 4-1.

While they say that the Stouffville Red Sox are the power team of the 1953 Tri-County League, they go on to say that the Green Sox were beaten by virtue of sparkling Red Sox defensive play. The report mentions the double play wizardry of Bob Hassard, Bud Lehman and Ken Schell and goes on to describe Les Clark as “The smart new shortstop” who adds considerable strength to the club. In commenting on mound star, Lorne Schell, the Sports editor claims that the Red Sox hurler had the ability to put a spin on the ball forcing one batter after another to pop out.

Summer Player Shortage
Everybody enjoys holidays but the mis-summer vacation has been causing the Red Sox management a series of headaches. The local squad can usually count on a couple of extra players at every game, but lately they have found themselves shorthanded. The situation is quite easily remedied if the local Juvenile squad are not in action because they have some top-notch star who can fill the vacancies quite handily. Bur when both clubs are playing on the same night is when the trouble starts. Last week they were forced to forfeit a game to the third place Uxbridge team for want of nine men. Cheer up fellows, the holidays won’t last for ever.

Star of the Week
This week it’s hats off to Ken Schell, hard hitting first baseman with the Stouffville Red Sox. The local squad journeyed to Oakville as guests of the Intermediate club in that Town. With one out and trailing 2-0, the Stouffville first sacker leaned into a fast ball and drove it 325 feet out of the park for home run. The Red Sox dropped the game by a score of 2-1.
The Joys of an Umpire
Kill the umpire! Kill the umpire! That’s a well known phrase wherever the game of baseball is player and although there is seldom much thought or consideration behind the statement some players and fans tend to ride the officials to such an extent that the “men in black” will very soon be on the scarcity list. There are not many players today who would trade their place with the umpire back of the plate for all the money in the world. Everyone makes mistakes, even baseball umpires and while participants in the sport are usually given a second chance, the poor umpire is threatened from all sides if he makes one bad call on a play. On a split second play, the official is forced to make a decision, one that will probably only a high speed camera could truthfully decide whether the call is right or wrong and yet what happens? Someone jumps on his neck. An umpire is only human being and not a machine. In one week alone we have seen or heard of three instances where umpires have been subjected to criticism, whether justly or not we will not venture to say. At Sutton, the plate umpire left Th. game midway through the contest and left the teams to finish the remaining innings the best way they knew how. Here when Sutton and Stouffville payed their return engagement the sparks began to fly between the players and the officials unit one competitor was banished from the game. Last week the Stouffville Juveniles and Aurora played a bitterly fought, the outcome remained deadlocked after the game had been completed. The umpire decided on extra innings much against the visitors wishes and Aurora lost by one run. The umpires were blamed for the defeat. If you’ve got nerves of steel, a voice like a foghorn, a sharp eye, a deaf ear, and can count from one to five, the job’s yours.
Shamrock Gain Point From Protest
Stouffville Shamrocks gained an extra point in the Markham Twp. Softball standing last week when the league officials upheld their protest and granted them a split with Buttonville in a game early in the schedule. The protest was lodged following a contest in which the plate umpire, Bill Hood, overruled the base ump., Len Buckland, on a play at second base. Buttonville went on to win the game after the decision was made. The secretary of the league, M. Ernie Appleton suggested tat the contest be replayed but it was thought that there were already a number of postponed games in the league and there was not time to work it in. LEASIDE BLANKS JUVENILES 8-0 IN EXHIBITION TILT
Stouffville Juveniles were blanked 8-0 on Saturday evening here by Leaside in an exhibition tilt. The local squad appeared unusually nervous throughout the contest and subsequently they committed a number of costly errors. Taylor on the mound allowed Stouffville but one hit and that came in the seventh when Forfar connected with a single. He was left stranded on second when Hammersley and Wagg flied out and Murphy struck out. Hammersley on the mound for the home town squad gave up nine hits, walked two and struck out five, GIBSON BANISHED IN SUTTON-RED SOX CLASH
Stouffville Red Sox catcher, Hal Gibson found himself on the outside looking in following a heated discussion with the Sutton plate umpire during a torrid seven innings battle. Sutton took the game by a score of 8-5. Tempers flared late in the game when Skip Taylor slid home on a close play. While the runner was streaking for home, Lorne Schell took a relay throw from Jennings in centre field and pegged it to catcher Gibson. When the dust finally settled all hands were safe. Coach Hassard at the third coaching box protested vigorously the umpire’s decision.
When the contest resumed, catcher Keith Dunn hoisted a long fly ball into the frog pond in deep centre field and Pollock standing at first raced home. Once more the fur began to fly as Gibson argued that the runner should have been limited to two bases. The ump immediately ordered Gibson from the game and Hassard took over his position for the remainder of the game. Stouffville led 1-0 at the end of the of the third but Sutton came back to take the driver’s seat with three runs in the fourth. The Red Sox rallied BUTTONVILLE SHADES SHAMROCKS 1-0
Norm Stunden and Jack Sumner waged a thrilling pitchers duel, each allowing but four hits in seven innings. Two winning runs was scored by Stunden as George Stark singled on an error Bob Bangay and Norm Stunden were the most potent batters for Bill Hood’s squad. Both players credited themselves with a hit and a walk in three trips. Jack Rumney and Ronnie Bell were the other Buttonville hitters “GRANDMA” MORRISON ELGIN MILLS BALL HURLER AT 53
At 53 years of age Rena “Grandmaw” Morrison, ace pitcher for the Elgin Mills in the Markham Twp. Girls Softball League has chalked up an enviable record during her 38 years on the mound. Mrs. Morrison started her softball career in 1915 with Hope, a small community near King City, west of Richmond Hill. She and her sister, Ellie thought nothing of walking 5 miles to play ball. Later, the right-handed played with Maple, Thornhill and finally with Elgin Mills where she starred for the past ten years. The club is almost a family affair as her husband, Mr. Wm. Morrison coaches the team, her daughter Mrs. Elsie Topp plays first base, a niece Miss Shirley Jones is relief pitcher while yet another Miss Mae Jones hold down a centre field position. In order to get herself in shape at the beginning of the season, Rena and her daughter throw the softball back and forth for hours in their backyard in Richmond Hill.
“I’ve never received a cent in my life of playing softball” said the twirler. “I play the game only for the love of sport and hope to continue for another twenty years.” UMPIRE QUITS GAME, SUTTON WINS 10-6
Plate umpire Don Davis decided that he would no longer tolerate the criticism that baseball officials are sometimes subjected to, so midway through the Stouffville-Sutton game he vacated his position in favour of a bystander who might do the job. The contest was a hectic affair from start to finish. Like most of their games the tension was high and the Red Sox were woefully short-handed and found it necessary to borrow a Sutton outfielder to complete their lineup. As the contest progressed, things went from bad to worst and a spectator was called in to call the strikes and balls from a position in back of the mound. Sutton took the contest 10-6. CEDAR GROVE WINS AGAIN OVER TOWN GIRLS
Cedar Grove girls pulled their second big upset of the season over Stouffville when they downed the local squad by a score of 10-6. A double in the sixth innings by catcher Marion Beare with two on broke up a tight contest. Joan Haynes handling the hurling chores for Stouffville.
So far in the schedule, Cedar Grove have lost but one game. In the other contest, Stouffville whipped Unionville 26-11

Wedding Bells
On August 1st, two of Stouffville’s top athletes, Helen Snowball and Bob Hassard will be married in the Stouffville United Church. Helen climbed into the sporting spotlight a few years ago when she attained a number of awards in speed skating races in Toronto. During her high school career she was always one of the top competitors at the inter-school field day events and has also starred with the local girls softball team for the last five years. Bob Hassard was one of the top rookies with Joe Primeau’s squad on the Toronto maple Leafs last season.
A Swimming Pool for Stouffville?
Through the generosity of many community-minded residents the Village of Stouffville is able to boast of a sports program equal to towns with twice the population. An artificial ice arena, floodlight, tennis courts, bowling green, and ball diamond all adds up to a year of complete sporing activities. But there is one project that has not yet been attempted here, a swimming pool. Such a plan would cost a great deal of money but when you consider the benefits received, the cost is comparatively small.
A swimming pool was constructed at Lemonville at a cost of $2,000. In Uxbridge , Mr. and Mrs. Stuart Watts have opened their newly built pool which will provide swimming accommodation for 300 at a cost of $3,000. This pool was constructed by Mr. Ken Betz of Stouffville.
When the temperature soars into the high eighties, children who are unable to take advantage of a summer resort must either journey to some unsupervised stream or stay at home. Such a project is certainly worth consideration. Ten years ago an artificial ice arena and floodlight were mere pipe dreams. SEVEN TEAMS COMPLETE SENIOR HOCKEY LEAGUE
Seven teams have entered the Sr. ‘B’ Metropolitan Hockey League and a meeting has been called this week when it is expected a schedule will be drawn up. The teams interested are Scarboro Rangers, Lyndhurst Motors, Dynes Leaside, Slack Shops, New Toronto, Toronto Wheelers and Stouffville Clippers.

The men play mainly at Aurora or err Agincourt Golf is a sport which can be played in the afternoon or evening, sunshine o rain and as the case lays year, many golfers took to the “greens” in December. STAN MILLER TOP HURLER IN GEORGIA LEAGUE
Stan Miller, ex-Stouffville mound ace is setting a torrid pace in the Georgia League both on the hill and at bat. He has chalked up a record of 12 wins and 2 losses and at bat he was literally murdering the opposition pitchers with a .344 average. His chances of moving up the baseball ladder appear good as the Manager has excellent connections with the International League. SHAMROCKS DROP VITAL GAME
Stouffville Shamrocks dropped a vital contest here by a score of 6-2. With three scheduled games remaining in the regular schedule plus a couple of postponed contest the time is fast running out for the locals to gain a playoff berth. At present they are five points behind the fourth place spot. The Stouffville squad got off to a bad start when the league began put midway through the season were the hottest club in the circuit. However, although the situation is not too encouraging a short winning streak and a few Unionville losses could put the locals right back in playoff position. TOWN GIRLS END CEDAR GROVE JINX, WIN 13-9
Stouffville girls scored their first victory of the season over Cedar Grove 13-9. Ruth Gould teed off on a fast ball and smashed a four-bagger out of the park for the Cedar Grove lone home run of the game. Joan Haynes and Marg Schell shared pitching duties for the winners. STOUFFVILLE RED SOX, WITH MAKESHIFT SQUAD, DOWNED UXBRIDGE 8-5.
Stouffville Red Sox had a five run barrage in the first innings. Many of the locals first-string players were absent for the contest and reinforcements were called in to fill the vacancies. Graham Frisby and Murray Stewart were called from the Juveniles and Lorne Boadway handled the pitching chores for the entire game. Lorne Schell, Bob Hassard and Ted Cadieux were unable to be present for the contest.
In the first innings, Raxlin, Gibson, K. Schell, Clarke and Frisby each hammered out hits to score five runs. Uxbridge came back with two runs in the first as Knight and Harwood scored with two runs. By the fourth they had rallied to even terms.

Barb is one of the most improved players on Th. squad and is now patrolling the centre fled position with the assuredness of a five year veteran. Last week she had four hits in four trips to the plate and handled more fly balls without error than the remaining eight players. In the last five games barb has been at bat twenty times and has had sixteen safe hits and one home run. That’s a good average in any league.
Pay as You Play
The Stouffville Tennis Club management would like to issue a gentle hint to the users of the courts that any donation or memberships would certainly be appreciated.

At the present time the club is planning a drive to raise funds for the installation of light next year. The membership fee for seniors is $3.00 and $1.50 for juniors.
Time for a Change
The slogan “Time for a Change” is a familiar phrase in the world of politics but it ever the term should be brought into effect its’s right here in our own Tri-County League baseball setup. The group comprising Sutton, Uxbridge and Stouffville has become nothing more than a phrase. If one club finds they are short of players, they merely default the game and lose two points, but what difference does that make, because the standing remain the same. Uxbridge has calmed but one win throughout the entire season but they salvaged those points because Stouffville didn’t bother to make the trip. Sutton provides real opposition but no matter who wins or loses both Stouffville and Sutton will meet in the playoffs. At the present time neither team knows when it will play until a day or two before the game, hence the fans are just as confused as the layers. Sunderland threw a monkey wrench into the whole affair when they dropped out midway through the schedule and the League had no other alternative but to let the remaining three clubs ply “exhibition” games until the playoffs roll around. Last week. Uxbridge journeyed to Sutton with neither a full squad nor an umpire. Although the crowd on hand was small, it was thoroughly disgusted as were the Sutton players. The game was called off. It wold be a good idea for the managements of the Stouffville and Sutton to get their heads together at the conclusion of playoffs and try and work out a different setup for another season. There has been considerable talk concerning the grouping of Aurora and Newmarket in with Stouffville and Sutton for another year. Such an arrangement might work into some interesting competition between the four sports centres; certainly it couldn’t be any worse than the arrangement this year. HOOKER FIRES NO HITTER SHAMROCKS WIN 10-0
Jerry Hooker, Stouffville’s ace righthander chalked p the first no-hit shutout of the season in the Markham Twp. Softball League as he hurled the Shamrocks to a 10-0 victory over Peaches. Peaches second sacker was the only player to reach first base. He was issued a free ticket but was left stranded.
The Stouffville twirler credited himself with six strikes outs and issued but one base on balls. Stouffville batters tapped Peaches hurler for 12 hits, 5 of them coming in the final innings. They left 11 runners stranded on the base paths.
Ward Edwards was the to batter for the winners with four hits in four official trips to the plate. Clarence Fockler tapped out two for four,
Stouffville’s victory coupled with Markham’s 6-1 win over Unionville kept the Shamrocks playoff hopes alive. EDGE NEWMARKET IN PLAYOFF OPENER
Stouffville juveniles jumped into a one game lead over Newmarket in the North York semi final playoffs when they edged the canal town squad by a score of 4-3. Murray Stewart on the mound for Th. winners hurled a five hitter. After five complete innings, both teams were deadlocked 3-3 but Graham Frisby and Grant Wagg came through with safe hits in the sixth to provide the winning run.
The local squad jumped into the lead in the second innings when Hodgson and Frisby hit safely and Stewart, Wagg and White walked two runs scored while three were left stranded. Newmarket did not go down without a fight but for some fine defensive work by local infielders the game could have been lost in the fail innings. SCHELL INJURED; SUTTON CLIPS RED SOX 9-2
The Stouffville Red Sox suffered a serious blow when their ace hurler Lorne schell was hit on the leg with a line drive in the first inning and although he attempted to carry on he was forced to leave the contest in the fifth. Sutton took the game 9-2.
The Stouffville squad had taken three straight wins over Sutton in earlier games but at bat they seemed woefully weak. In seven innings they took George Holbourne for but three hits. Sutton, on the other hand were run-hungry, as they pounded Schell for six hits and tallied seven more safeties off relief pitcher Lorne Boadway.
In the fateful fourth inning, Cameron teed off a slow curve ball and lined a triple into outfield. Holbourne singled driving in a run and Dunn lifted a 325 foot homer to give Sutton a 3-0 lead. With two out, Weir attempted to steal second but was tagged out by Clarke on a perfect throw by catcher Ken Schell.
Stouffville counted their runs in the bottom go the fifth. Smith received a base when hit by the pitcher and Boadway singled on an error. Raxlin credited himself with two R.B.I.’s when he lifted a double into left field scoring Smith and Boadway. With one runner on second, Lehman flied to Rowe, Clarke struck out and K. Schell popped out the third baseman to end the attempted rally. A walk for Taylor, a double by Dunn and a single for Chadwick scored the remaining runs for Sutton. TOWN GIRLS DOWN PEACHES 15-8 IN EARLY ATTACK
Stouffville girls scored a total of nine runs in two innings to romp home an easy victory of 15-8 over Peaches. Stouffville counted six tallies in the first and added three more in the second to take a 9-1 lead.

Marg Schell, Jean Halstead and Joan Haynes scored the final runs for the winners. Donna Velde, Stouffville’s versatile catcher, first baseman slugged a long triple into left field but was tagged out at the plate when she attempted to stretch the hit into a home run. Barb Hare, one of Stouffville’s most consistent batters and outfielders had a good night with four hits and pulled off some nice catches on well hit balls to centre field. Joan Haynes also wielded a powerful bat, hitting four for four. Clarence Fockler and Harry Lewis handled the umpiring duties.

Richmond Hill Fades From OBA Picture
Stouffville’s hustling juvenile squad literally knocked Richmond Hill right out of the OBA picture as they snowed under the Yonge St. crew by a score of 20-0. Such a whitewashing appeared to be all the opposition could take and they defaulted the return game and the series. For the contest, Graham Frisby, regular outfielder with the team, took over the mound and proved a master at the art as he chalked up a no-hit shutout. Frisby relies mainly on his fast ball and his speed had the opposition batters dizzy. It is the second shutout registered by Stouffville pitchers,

Every season, sport writers and broadcasters go out on a limb and attempt to select a first and second all-star lineup both in hockey and baseball, with the result that some finest athletes in the world are brought together to form a team that all coaches dream about but never expect to obtain. Your sports reporter has given much thought to the many players which form the local men’s and ladies’ softball teams and has produced what he believes to be the pick of the crop in the two leagues. In the Markham Twp. Men’s Softball League there are seven teams, Markham, Buttonville, Thornhill, Peaches, Stouffville, Richmond Hill and Unionville. In the Girls’ Softball League there are five teams, Stouffville, Cedar Grove, Peaches, Elgin Mills and Unionville.

Stouffville Memorial Park floodlights were turned on Monday night at the Sutton-Stouffville Intermediate ball game and the big crowd on hand got a real thrill as the big park was flooded with light. The regular game was completed and several additional innings were played so the players could try out conditions under the lights which require some adjusting for shadows and dark spots. However, even without adjusting, one could readily read a newspaper any place on the field. The lights are visible from Main Street, towering over the park, and as darkness came on, folks began to gather from all over town, drawn by the great glow which lit up the sky over the park. The floodlights are a gift of Mr. Art Latcham of Stouffville and the total cost of the project to Mr. Latcham was in the neighbourhood of $13,000. This is the greatest single contribution ever made to community sports and brings the local park into a class equalled by few centres of comparable size. While we have no definite date, an official opening night is expected to be arranged shortly which will give full recognition for this wonderful gift. FRISBY FIRES NO HIT SHUTOUT
Graham Frisby, centrefield rover with the Stouffville Juveniles filled in the vacancy on the mound and turned in a perfect performance blanking Richmond Hill with a no-hit shutout. Two runners worked him for a walk in the fourth innings but they were left stranded when three batters went down swinging. Stouffville scored eight runs in the second, four in the third, and eight in the fifth. They hammered out a total seventeen hits from the Richmond Hill pitchers. The contest was called at the end of four because of darkness. Richmond Hill decided to default the return game and drop out of the running, LORNE SCHELL STARS AS RED SOX WHIP SUTTON
Righthander Lorne Schell came through with a sparkling display both on the mound and at bat as Stouffville Red Sox defeated Sutton 9-4 in the first game of the playoffs. In the six inning contest, Schell connected with four hits in four trips, a homer, double and two singles. On the mound he sent eleven batters down on strikes, gave up seven hits, walked three. George Holbourne didn’t fare so well as in previous meetings as the Red Sox sluggers pounded out nine hits. Three errors allowed Stouffville to score three vital runs. Lloyd Jennings, Red Sox centre fielder pulled off a grandstand play of the game in the sixth. With the bases loaded and Sutton trailing by three runs, Cameron the visitors third sacker looped a Texas Leaguer into short centre which Jennings scooped up in his gloved hand and fired to Hassard doubling off Weir who was well on his way to third. The next batter Matt, popped out to Clarke at short to end the attempted rally. Lorne Schell wielded the most explosive bat for the Red Sox with Lou Raxlin also having a good night with a .500 average. Bob Hassard also added considerable power to the Stouffville lineup with two safeties in four turns at bat. L.Schell scored in the second. Raxlin and Gibson added two in Th. third with Raxlin, Clarke, Gibson and Jennings with four runs in the fourth. K. Schell and L. Schell salted the game away in the sixth. HOME RUNS GIVE SHAMROCKS WIN
Two home runs in the 5th innings gave Stouffville Shamrocks a vital 9-5 victory over Richmond Hill. Carey teed off in the top of the fifth with a bases empty four bagger and pitcher Jack Sumner smashed the ball out of the park with two aboard to score what proved to be the scoring run. The Hill rallied with three runs in the bottom of the fifth but Stouffville salted the game away as uBlock, Edwards and H. Forgie rounded the sacks and scored. Each team connected with ten hits in the seven innings match. TOWN GIRLS STRUGGLE TO A DRAW
Stouffville girls and Elgin Mills battles to a 3-3 deadlock in one of the tightest games of the season. Marg Schell and Jon Haynes shared mound duty for the local squad. Hits by Donna Velde, Marg Schell and Lois Skinner scored a lobe tally for Stouffville in the first innings with Carolyn Haynes driving across another run in the second to give the home team a 2-0 advantage. Elgin Mills centre fielder, May Jones scored to put the visitors back in the game. Marg Schell scored Stouffville’s third run on hits by Lois Skinner and Jean Halsted but Elgin Mills rallied with two runs in the fourth to put both clubs on even terms.

PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM INSTALLED IN PARK
During the past few evenings residents of Stouffville have been serenaded with beautiful, clear music issuing from a powerful loudspeaker system in the Memorial Park. This automatic recording machine complete with two microphones, records and two speakers is another added gift from Mr. Arthur Latcham. The set is so powerful that if turned on its full power it can be heard as far west as Ringwood and east to the townline. With his own hands, Mr. Latcham has constructed a platform at the rear of the plate behind the screen where a player by player description of the game may be given to spectators who are not familiar with the teams taking part. CONCLUDE SUMMER TOURNAMENTS
The summer series of mixed bowling tournaments were concluded on the local greens with the following winners: high for three wins, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Beare, Claremont; second high for three wins, Elgin Wagg and Mrs. Alvin Klinck, Stouffville; high for two wins, Mr. Morgan and Mrs. Burroughs, Agincourt; high for one win, Mr. and Mrs. George Middleton. JUVENILES DROP FROM OBA RACE
Stouffville Juveniles shocked heir supporters by dropping out of the OBA race at the hands of Wellington in two straight games. The first contest was played here and the locals walked all over their opposition to the tune of 16-2. The return game was played in Wellington and the Juveniles were edged 7-6. In the third contest also played on the visitors field, Stouffville literally fell apart and were snowed under by a score of 12-2. Such a reversal of form is hard to understand. However, all is not over for the squad as they are still in the thick of group competition with Newmarket.

TOWN AND FANS EXPRESS
The appreciation o Stouffville sports fans and the local clubs was extended to Mr. Art Latcham publicly for his magnificent gift of floodlights.

Wide-Eyed Youngsters See Big League Stars in Action
When the N.H.L. All-Stars stepped into Stouffville Memorial Park to play et local Shamrocks, the enthusiastic youngsters in the town and surrounding district received the thrill of their lives. To actually see at close range such Big League athletes a Harry Watson, LoLys Smith, Cal Gardiner and Ray Timgren seemed like a dream come true, Whether it was Sid Smith wielding his powerful bat, Harry Watson pitching his submarine fast ball or Bob Hassard racing around bases one must separate these men in class to themselves when it comes to sport. BOB HASSARD JOINS MAPLE LEAFS AT ST CATHARINE’S TUES
Stouffville Red Sox coach Bob Hassard will move to St Catharines next week, as the Toronto Maple Leafs open their winter hockey training session. The opening of the Leaf camp forces Hassard to vacate the Red Sox lineup at a time when his services would be very valuable to the club. It is hoped that the local hardballers will be able to get one more playoff game before the local star exchanges his bat for a stick. GIRLS SOFTBALL SEMI FINAL CLOSE GAME
Marjorie Barber, Peaches hard hitting pitcher and right fielder crossed up the entire Stouffville outfield as she belted a ninth innings home run to give the seven concession squad a 7-6 victory in the first game of the best of three series.

Pitchers Can’t Hit; Or Can They?
The old slogan “pitchers can’t hit” has no meaning as far as the Peaches and Stouffville girls’ ball teams are concerned. In fact if the saying was reversed it would not be an understatement. Stouffville has two regular pitchers, Marg Schell and Joan Haynes, while Peaches depends on the services of Marjorie Barber and Shirley Young for mound duty. In the past three semi-final games, Pitcher Marg Schell bats in the clean-up position for Stouffville and in fourteen trips to the plate has counted 4 singles, 1 double, 1 home run with the bases loaded and worked the opposition hurler for 4 walks for a .600 average. Loan Haynes has also compiled a fine record with 6 singles in 12 official trips with a .500 average. For Peaches, Barber was considered one of the top batsman on the club with nine hits in 14 appearances; 4 singles, 1 double and 4 home runs. Shirley Young racked up three hits in seven trips, a good showing in any league.
Facts And Figures
In the recently concluded Peaches-Stouffville girls softball semi-finals, your reporter has pieced together the batting records if the individual players in the three games. Eleanor Reid, the captain of the Peaches and batting in the clean-up position topped the list with a total of 10 hits, 8 singles and 2 doubles. Helen Hassard of Stouffville was close with 9 hits, tied with Marg Smith of Peaches and Peggy White of Stouffville were deadlocked for the number three position, each with seven safe hits. Peaches righthander, Marjorie Barber outclassed the field in the home run department with four round trippers. Marion Housser and Marg Smith connected for Peaches and while Helen Hassard with two and Barb Hare Marg Schell smashed out four baggers for Stouffville.
Bob Hassard Joins Leaf Hockey Camp
Stouffville Red Sox Coach Bob Hassard left town bound for St Catharines and the Toronto Maple Leaf hockey training camp. Before embarking however, Bob filled his regular position at third base with the local hardball club, and turned in a fine relief job on the mound against the visiting Lindsay squad. The Leaf centre star begins his second full season with the Toronto club and the entire community wishes him the best of luck. As one local star leaves town another returned only a few days ago. Stan Miller, Stouffville’s ace righthander arrived home last week from Georgia where he chalked up a fine hurling record of 13 wins and 4 losses. NORTHERN CLUBS SEEKING TO KEEP CLIPPERS IN GROUP
Stouffville Clippers are really proving to be a popular hockey club. The club as previously announced has entered the senior ranks for another season in the Toronto metropolitan OHA group. However, Orillia, Peterboro and Kingston and other clubs forming last years group are strenuously opposing the move in an effort to keep Stouffville in. The Clippers they claim are the best drawing card. In this effort they have strong support from Frank Buckland of Peterboro, OHA executive member.
A meeting of the OHA executive to which Stouffville was called failed to solve the problem. Stouffville has absolutely refused to travel the long distances required fir the northern group. A suggestion was made that the two leagues play an interlocking schedule which would only require the city tams to make one out-of-town trip all winter. This Stouffville is willing to do but the balance of the Metro League is not. New Toronto has already dropped out and Scarboro says that unless Stouffville is allowed in the city group they will not operate.
All in all, it is quite a headache and further meetings will be required. As usual the city clubs are proving weakly organized and poorly financed as evidenced by the fact they cannot even make one trip outside their own league. PEACHES GIRLS ROUT STOUFFVILLE. ENTER FINALS
Peaches girls moved into the Girls’ Softball League finals as they belted Stouffville pitchers for eleven singles, two doubles and three home runs to win the contest 16-6. It was the third and deciding game with Peaches taking the first 7-6 and Stouffville winning the second 19-16.
In the third game the score was 2-0 for Peaches at the end of the first period. Both clubs failed to score in the second but Stouffville moved back into contention as Helen Hassard singled and completed the circuit on errors. Marg Schell and Donna Velde received free tickets but Barb Hare, Marg Barry and Helen Paisley went down on order. Peaches literally sewed up the game in the bottom of the third with nine runs off seven hits and Peaches was leading 11-1. Peaches added five more in the fourth and increased their score to 16-1. Stouffville showed some signs of a rally in the fifth as Peggy White, Marg Schell, Joan Haynes and Carolyn Haynes connected with singles scoring four runs. Barb Hare added another in the sixth on errors to complete the total Clarence Fockler officiated at the plate with Gord Forgie handling the bases. RED SOX LOSE PLAYOFF OPENER TO LINDSAY, 9-5.
A 350 foot home run by pitcher Jack Williams with three mates on board in the sixth innings gave Lindsay Walkwoods a 9-5 victory and a one game lead in a best of three sim-final series.
The first big blow came off the bat of Lindsay first baseman Stephenson as he smashed a long home run over the centre field fence driving in a run.
Lindsay added another run in the third when Truax singled and eTele brought him around with a double.
Stouffville narrowed the Lindsay led in the fourth as Hassard singled, Gibson reached first on an error and Ken Schell drove a liner through the infield scoring two runs.
Lindsay sewed up the contest in the sixth when two walks and a hit loaded the sacks and Williams stepped into a 3 and 2 pitch for a grand slam home run. OSHAWA SKATING CLUB SEEKS ICE TIME IN STOUFFVILLE
Because of the distorts fire which wiped out Oshawa’s half million dollar Arena this week, the Oshawa Skating Club, one of the largest and strongest in the country are seeking considerable ice time in Stouffville. A special meeting was being called of the Stouffville Arena Co. to make the necessary arrangements with the Motor City organization. Ice will go to in the local arena immediately after the Trade Fair is completed.
Some hockey will unquestionably be shifted to Stouffville as well as Oshawa provided considerable time for many clubs, particularly at playoff time. The Oshawa Generals are considering moving into Bowmanville for the season.

Bob Bangay Guest Speaker At Trade Fair
Bob Bangay, playing coach of the Stouffville Sr. B Clippers will be the special speaker at the Stouffville Trade Fair on Saturday night. Bob has become through the years one of the best-known and most highly respected hockey stars that has ever performed in this community. The Clipper coach will discuss the plans for the Stouffville club for the coming hockey season and will probably throw some light on any new p[layers which he hopes to line up when the schedule get underway.
Take A look At That Screen
Without a doubt, the town of Stouffville can boast with pride of having one of the finest ball parks and community centres in the area, but there is one obstacle which hovers over home plate that is a disgrace to even the lowliest of diamonds — the backstop screen. Through the ball season there has scarcely been a game completed without one or two players scrambling up the rusty wire net like monkeys in order to release a trapped ball from the broken mesh. Lat year some members of the Red Sox squad welded together the sagging screen to the best of their ability. What the backstop now needs is not patching up but pulling down. If possible perhaps sufficient funds could be set aside in the next budget so that a new screen might replace the antique which is an eye-sore to the park.
Is The O.H.A. Becoming A Dictatorship?
For the past few weeks, the management of the Stouffville Clippers has been attending various meetings as the OHA in an effort to gain entry into the Metropolitan Hockey League. Te idea behind the Stouffville move is to get away from the long trips to Kingston, Belleville, Peterboro, etc. which are not only expensive but tiresome to players who must earn their bread and butter by means other than hockey. Up to the present time the OHA has taken a dim view of the Stouffville request bad have stated in so many words that the Clippers must remain in the 52-53 grouping or pull out. With this one-sided insight into the matter the OHA must surely be forgetting two main points: (1) Stouffville is in the Metropolitan hockey area and (2) The Clippers have lined coffers of the OHA in past years, a fact that should certainly be considered before they think of waving them good-bye. If the Sr. B Clippers are refused entry into the Toronto group they will be the first club in the Metropolitan area that has been refused admittance. To make matters worse, the Sr. B grouping to which Stouffville was connected last season was not satisfied to form an interlocking schedule with the distant centres of Peterboro, Stouffville, Kingston and Belleville. A club would have to be made of money to stand such an expensive operation during the season. Time is running out and a decision will have to be made very soon. If our information is correct, the life of our Clippers seems to rest in the hands of the OHA. PEACHES TAKE PLAYOFF LEAD DOWN MILLS 12-6
Peaches took a one game lead over Elgin Mills for the Girls Softball Championship as they downed the Yonge St. squad by a score of 12-6. Peaches smashed pitcher Rena Morrison with eight hits in early innings Peaches built up a 3-0 lead in their first turn at bat. Four singles by Pat Smith, Marion Housser, Eleanor Reid and Betty Wideman accounted for the runs. Peaches practically sewed the game up in the second with six runs. Carley Brown reached first on a bad throw. Marg Smith singled, Pat Smith dropped a roller in front of the plate and beat it out, Eleanor Reid and Fern Hoover singled and Edna Stickley was given a life on an error as the runners continued to circle the sacks. At the end of the sixth Peaches had a lead of 12-2. Elgin Mills rallied with four runs in the seventh on three singles and a three base error.
Marion Housser was the top batter for Peaches with a single and two trips in five trips. Eleanor Reid connected with three singles while Betty Wideman hit two for two. Gord Forgie officiated behind the plate with Chas. Ryan of Richmond Hill calling the bases RED SOX WIN TITLE, ELIMINATE LINDSAY
Stouffville Red Sox captured the Tri-County League Championship as they rolled to a 10-2 victory over Lindsay. It was Lorne Schell and Hal Gibson all the way for the Champions with the righthander allowing but four hits in the seven innings final. Stouffville broke into the lead in their half of the first as Raxlin got a walk and Lehman and Ken Schell hit safely driving in two runs. First baseman and clean up batter Ken Schell hammered in another run for Stouffville in the bottom of the third driving Gibson across to give the Red Sox a 3-0 lead. The Red Sox salted the game away in the fifth and sixth as they compiled a total of 7 runs. Gibson scored the lone tally in the fifth while Raxlin, Lehman, Clark, Gibson, Smith and L. Schell rounded the sacks and scored. Ken Schell was a powerful cog in the Red Sox machine smashing out three drives in four turns at be. Bud Lehman had a good night with two hits and two walks in four trips. The Tri-County League Championship trophy will now have Stouffville for its home as the Red Sox replace Sutton in the honoured position. BOWLING NEWS

Your Athletic Club
Next Tuesday evening at the Arena, your Stouffville Athletic Club is holding a fake re-organization meeting. The Club has done a great job in past years by providing equipment for baseball and hockey teams for the youth of Stouffville and immediate district. The money raised and used for this purpose has reached more than $10,000. The club has funds today but id lacking in personnel.
A great deal of the responsibility and most of the work has fallen on a few shoulders and these men do not feel that under the circumstances they can carry on. It is indeed a pity if the organization is forced to fold because of a lack of interest.
There are fathers in Stouffville with boys on the tams organized by the Club who should take on this job and it is most regrettable if they do not show interest enough in their lads and those of their neighbours to give a little tie to this work.
Hockey time is here again. Last year the Athletic Club financed teams on Friday night all winter long for the teen-age boys. Remember this is your club and these are your own boys you are being asked to help.
We won’t Be Late If We Plan Early
Earlier in the season it was the view of your sports reporter that Stouffville should seek other fields for their baseball competition when another year rolls around. At the recent meeting of officials in the South Simcoe League it was suggested that the group be split with Barrie, Stroud, Alliston and Newmarket forming the nucleus. Stouffville and Sutton would be asked to enter. This type of competition wold no doubt provide plenty of good opposition for the Red Sox. Such a setup in the local Tri-County group has been far from satisfactory and some change will have to be made. Since the withdrawal of Sunderland the competition has been strictly limited to Stouffville vs Sutton as Uxbridge, the third team, has failed to provide the opposition for good ball. CLIPPER ENTRY FINALLY OK’d
The Stouffville Clippers have been granted permission to withdraw from the former OHA Big Six Senior group and have entered the Toronto Metropolitan Hockey League. The “release” wasn’t granted without a fight however, with the biggest objector being Orillia. They endeavoured to put through a motion demanding that the Stouffville club to either remain in the group or pull out of hockey altogether. The Clippers however found a strong supporter in President Wren Blair of Oshawa who claimed he would not vote against an issue that might cause a team to quit hockey. He added however that he regretted seeing the Stouffville club pull out of the group as they were considered to be Oshawa’s biggest drawing card.
The Clippers held their opening hockey practice over the weekend. All of last years squad are expected back and Bud Watson and Jim Machin are practicing with the squad again this year. ELGIN MILLS WIN GIRLS SOFTBALL CHAMPIONSHIP

The Stouffville High School rugby squad faded before a surging Markham rally in the final quarter last week to drop their scheduled opener 38-32. The local team piled up a comfortable lead in the early part of the game as half back Graham Frisby carried the mail for Stouffville. However, the locals lacked the staying power and the visitors stormed back to pull the game out of the fire. ALL-STAR GIRLS PROVE BEST
The first All-Star team soundly whipped the alternate squad by a one-sided score of 23-4 in the Stouffville park. Both teams were lined up according to a selection made by your Tribune reporter a few weeks ago. Errors on the part of the alternate team accounted for the majority of runs.
The team lineups were as follows:
No 1 — p, Joan Haynes, Stouffville; c. Helen Hassard, Stouffville; 1st., Donna Velde, Stouffville; 2nd. Edna Stickley, Peaches; 3rd., Pat Smith, Peaches; short, Mavis trunk, Unionville; l.f. Marion Housser, Peaches; c.f. Lavinia Malcolm, Cedar Grove; r.f. Irene Mashinter, Elgin Mills

Bob Hassard received a gash on the head the other night in a collision and required several stitches. The local Leaf has been sent to the Pittsburg farm club for further seasoning.

Bob Hassard No. 1 Favourite With 10,000 Gardens Fans
On Wednesday evening 10,000 hockey fans at Maple Leaf Gardens sounded their approval of centre star Bob Hassard as he led the Pittsburg Hornets to a 3-1 victory over the aMole Leafs. By his untiring efforts, the local forward vaulted himself back into Toronto company and a regular spot with King Clancy’s squad. It was only a few days previous that Hassard was traded to the Leaf farm team in favour of Rudy Meger. Now Danny Lucky has received the “good-bye” sign from Conn Smythe after an unsuccessful tryout with the Maple Leafs. Bob Hassard’s spectacular return to form was applauded loudly by the crowd and his every move received a lusty cheer. Even a fistic encounter with Leaf forward Tod Sloan was O.K.’d by the action hungry spectators. Bob’s sensational comeback was the talk of every enthusiastic fan and a headline on the sport pages of the daily papers. While thousands voiced their personal approval at the Gardens, thousands more were pulling for him beside their TV sets or over their radios. If Bob can continue to play this brand of hockey he will no doubt become a permanent fixture with the Clancy crew.
Athletic Club Doomed?
After an active existence of six years, Stouffville Athletic Club appears to be doomed. Much more than $10,000 has been raised and spent on Stouffville’s young lads and now it appears the club is to die because the present executive, less tan a dozen men, have been carrying the full load of the club and cannot see their way clear to carry on further. it is most regrettable to reveal that not one parent of the boys whom this club has spent many dollars on, has come forward with an offer to help.
Sports in Stouffville have grown to a large scale and we believe the only sound way to continue is to form an Athletic Commission similar to that in some of our larger neighbouring communities. The Commission is organized under the Ontario Department of Community Planning similar to the Community Park Board. There is a Board of Seven members, representatives from five local organizations along with two members of town council. The commission receives a government grant of 20% on all equipment purchased and a third of the salary of any Athletic director if such was engaged.
It was proposed by the retiring Athletic Club executive that the Lions Club, as practically the only remaining body doing boys’ work, have the matter placed before them with a view to organizing the entire list of community organizations into an Athletic Club or a government sponsored commission.
Public Skating Popular
Although there are numerous other attractions around the town and community this time of year, public skating still retains its popularity with young and old alike. So far this season, three public skating night have been held and close to 1,000 persons have attended. This is one pastime that will never go out of style. HIGH SCHOOL RUGBY SQUAD DOWN R. HILL
For the first time in several years Richmond Hill High School suffered defeat at the hands of Stouffville as the local squad downed their rivals 33-17 last week. The Yonge Street crew opened the scoring with a converted touchdown in the first quarter but Stouffville rallied with ow to lead 11-6 at the end of the first half. The Hill threatened in the third quarter with a heavy ground attack but fumbles spoiled their chances of tying the score. Stouffville scored two touchdowns in the second half while Richmond Hill counted with two. Graham Frisby carried the ball for four of Stouffville’s touchdowns, Thompson scored two while Coultice, Frisby and Foord added the converts. STOUFFVILLE PLAY OSHAWA BENEFIT GAME
Hockey fans will see the Stouffville Clippers in action for the first time in the 53-54 season when they stage a benefit game against the powerful Sr. ‘B’ Truckmen. This is the club that knocked the Clippers out of the group playoffs last season. In their first exhibition appearance the Truckmen handed the powerful Jr. A Barrie Flyers a 7-2 setback a couple of weeks ago. Barre captured et memorial Cup last year.
The game is being staged to aid the Oshawa club in purchasing new equipment to replace that lost in the costly Oshawa arena fire one month ago.

Frisby Acclaimed In Rugby Victory
Graham Frisby, Stouffville High School’s top athlete and football star received high acclaim from Richmond Hill supporters following the squad’s victory. It marked the first time that Richmond Hill’s 6-man football team had suffered defeat since the league we organized several years ago. Stouffville captured the game 33-17. The Richmond Hill Liberal described Frisby as a “ball of fire whose superior speed and drive proved to be the difference between the two clubs.” Frisby scored four touchdowns for the winners with Glenn Thompson getting two.
Defence Makes The Difference
In our first glimpse of the 1953-54 edition of the Stouffville Clippers one major improvement impressed your reporter and the majority of fans who attended the Oshawa-Stouffville exhibition contest — the defence. “Joe” Catalan formerly with A.V. Roe and Macintosh from Latimer Brokers in the East York League looked very impressive. Bert Baker was a star throughout the game while Mark Mills, Jim Machin and Les Clarke turned in a very credible performance. The increased rearguard strength may also aid goaltender Blake Eatough in maintaining his excellent goaltending record since donning a Clipper uniform. Despite the shortage of defenceman last season, Eatough was the top net-minder in the Sr.’B’ group. BAKER NETS WINNER, CLIPPERS DOWN OSHAWA TRUCKMEN
Bert Baker, hard driving Clipper defenceman picked up a loose puck inside the Oshawa blueline and fired a knee high shot past Naylor in the Truckmen’s cage to give v a 3-2 victory over the Motor City. The win aided the Clippers to gain partial revenge for Oshawa’s mastery over them in the group semi-finals last season.
Bob Bangay used five familiar faces in his starting lineup with Polly Minton centreing George Stark and Nick Bangay. Bert Baker and Jim Machin formed a solid defensive obstruction. In the second line, Ronnie Bell worked between Hal Gibson and pSeers with Mark Mills and Joe Catalan on defence. A third attacking unit had a newcomer Penoleberry centreing Stephenson and Small. A fourth line made up of jack Watson, Tunstell and Crust with Don Lewis taking a turn at left wing. Les Clark and MacKintosh formed the third set of blueline barriers. Blake Eatough was back in his old familiar position in the Stouffville net. On the nights’ play the Stouffville defence appeared to be the greatest improvement. Newcomers Catalan and MacKintosh looked especially good with Machin, Baker, Clark and Mills turning in a steady game. LIONS PEE WEE NNL TO HAVE SIX TEAMS
There will be six teams in the local Lions Club Pee Wee League his season instead of four clubs. Coaches have been approached to handle six teams, Bill Lennox, Bill Bockmaster, George Pierce, Albert Smalley and Tom Wedseltoft have all given notification that they will assist in organizing and running the group. Any boy 8 to 14 on Oct 1st is eligible to play. Any parent that is willing to assist in operating the league is welcome to drop into the arena on any Saturday afternoon. BOWLING NEWS
Dr. Ron Smith’s Quacks and Vic Atkinson Overdrafts are deadlocked for the top position in the Stouffville Lions Club League each with four points. Bill Ford’s V-8’s and george Pearce’s Pink Pills are deadlocked in the number two position while the Edward’s Cuties and Len Wilkes’ Stuffed Shirts are pointless. RUGBY SQUAD DOWN NEWMARKET
Stouffville rugby team defeated Newmarket 22-17. Newmarket kicked for a point in the first quarter but early in the second quarter Ron Peake took a pass from Haynes and ran for a touchdown. Jim Coultice scored a major on a pass from Foord and the convert by Thompson was good. Newmarket intercepted a pass and drove to the Stouffville five yard line. Creed plunged for five points. Stouffville led 11-6 at the end of the half. Grove picked up five points for Newmarket in the third quarter to tie the score. Frisby put Stouffville ahead again with an unconverted major on a plunge. In the final quarter Neil Tate ran a kick back for a touchdown which Ron Grove converted. With the score 17-16 in favour of Newmarket. Stouffville’s prospects looked grim until Frisby, with less than three minutes left, scored on an end run. Ron Peake caught the convert to complete the scoring. RECORD TURNOUT AT OPENING SKATING CLUB PRACTICE
Over 100 figure skaters turned out to the opening practice sessions of the Stouffville Figure Skating Club on Monday afternoon and evening. Mr. and Mrs. Distelmeyer are well satisfied with the ability of the local junior skaters.

Over 2,000 Skaters in Six Night
Since the doors of the Stouffville Arena have been opened for another season there has been six nights set aside for public skating. During those six night over 2,000 skating enthusiasts have filed by the wicket to enjoy two hours of healthful sport. Perhaps the main reason for its popularity is the reasonable admission price. Persons with the barest bank accounts can usually scrape up 35c for a full two hours of entertainment. There will be public skating in the arena on Wednesday and Friday nights of this week.
New Sweaters For Lions Hockey Clubs
The Stouffville Lions Peewee hockey teams are to be all decked out in new sweaters this season. Each club will represent one of the six N.H.L. teams and their sweaters will be identical with those worn by the Maple Leafs, Canadiens, Detroit, New York, Boston and Chicago. The purchase will cost the Lions Club approximately $800 plus $600 for ice time. The sweaters will be turned in at the completion of each game and at the end of the season.
Keen Competition
The Metropolitan Senior B hockey league is off to a good start and from all appearances the Stouffville Clippers should have plenty of stiff competition for the next live months. Although many hockey fans are more interested in the game when a team represents an individual town or city rather than an area it should be understood that no matter where the clubs hail from if they provide topnotch competition they are worthy of fan support. It is true with the exception of Stouffville every player in the Metro group comes from Toronto but don’t think that there isn”t plenty of hockey talent to spare. In the two games played by the Clippers to date the local squad are all even with a win and a loss. They dropped the opener 5-4 in overtime and scored a 4-3 victory at Ravina on Saturday night. They don’t come any closer than that.
Picked As The Team To Beat
Bunny Morganson noted sports taken an early season climb out on the hockey limb and has Gregg Currie’s Lyndhurst Motors as the team to capture the Metro Sr. B group championship. The second rung will a tossup between our own Stouffville Clippers, Dynes Leasiders and Ravina’s KI-Y Flyers. Lambton Lumber Wheelers are not expected to finish in the money series. It may be remembered back in the 1951-52 playoff series the Clippers ran up against Lyndhurst Motors and after edging the Toronto crew 4-3 in opener they dropped the next contest by a score of 5-0. At that time many fans believed that the writing was on the wall. The Clippers would never overcome this hard-skating aggregation but they did and furthermore they went on to capture the OHA Sr B championship. This season Lyndhurst appears (on paper at least) to have a championship club, but Bob Bangay and Company may have similar ideas along those line. It should prove an interesting schedule. OVERTIME GOAL BEATS CLIPPERS IN FIRST HOME GAME
A fluke goal by forward Doug Burns at 7.22 in the overtime session allowed Dynes Leasiders to score a 5-4 victory over Stouffville Clippers here on Wednesday night. Ronnie Bell was responsible for sending both clubs into overtime as he potted the tying goal with but eight seconds remaining in regulation time. Goaltender Blake Eatough had vacated the Stouffville net in favor of an extra forward. Hardly had the teams started the overtime when Bell skated into a hard clearing shot by Mark Mills and collapsed to the ice with a deep gash in his forehead. Numerous stitches were necessary to close the cut. There was no scoring in the first period although both clubs had numerous wide open chances. The Clippers ran into three minor penalties but Goalie Eatough warded off the Toronto attack with a number of good stops. Stubbings in the Dynes cage was also well tested, especially from the stick of Speers who took George’s pass for a close in drive. Midway through the overtime period, Dog Burns took a pass from linemate Davidson and dribbled a rolling shot past the surprised Eatough. With eight seconds remaining Eatough was pulled but the move failed to pay dividends. The score remained Dynes Leasiders 5, Stouffville 4 ORGANIZE NORTH YORK HOCKEY
A meeting of the North York Hockey League is to be in Newmarket on Thursday night of this week. Messrs. Jim Austin, Ken Wagg and Giles Tran are expected to attend at the present time. Stouffville’ s minor hockey setup is quite unsure since the Athletic Club has folded up. It is hoped that something definite may be arranged in the near future as the League heads wish to form a schedule as soon as possible. All those wishing to play juvenile hockey should get in touch with Ken Wagg who is arranging practice dates. Starting next week the juveniles will practice every Friday night. CLIPPERS EDGE WEST TORONTO FLYERS 4-3
Stouffville Clippers scored their initial victory of the Metro Sr. B League on Saturday night as they downed Ravina as KI-Y Flyers 4-3. The local squad had a considerable edge in the overall play and should have doubled the score on their opposition. The Stouffville squad turned in a time penalty killing display and at one time while two men short the Toronto crew failed to get a direct shot on goaltender Blake Eatough. Hal Gibson potted the first Clipper goal with Polly Minton, Geo. Stark and Pendlebury counting the others. Loring Doolittle. Aurora’s colourful baseball umpire has turned his hand to hockey officiating and will probably handle numerous senior games in this group. He wielded a strict thumb on Saturday night and kept the penalty timekeepers busy. The Stouffville win boosted them into third place in the league two points back of Lyndhurst Motors.

Joe Chrysdale provided with a play by play description of the Stouffville-Leaside game on Monday on station CKEY. The Toronto sports announcer commented on the terrific pace set by players on both clubs. During the broadcast he made special mention of Stouffville’s NickBangay, Gord Lewis, Polly Minton, Ronnie Bell and the Clipper’s defence star, MacIntosh. A good crowd was on hand for thrilling contest and the spectacular late game rally staged by the Stouffville squad had the spectators on their feet. They a hearty round of applause even from pro-Leaside fans.
So They Call That Hockey?
On Wednesday night of last week, some 500 fames turned out to witness a supposedly good game of hockey between Lyndhurst Motors and Stouffville Clippers. What the fans really saw was a crystal fall football final between Hamilton Tigers and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers. The type of hockey if you’ll pardon the expression displayed by Gregg Currie’s East York squad throws the true art and skill of the sport to the four winds. Any player on the opposition team who depends entirely on his stickhandling ability might just as well stay on the bench because he won’t get off a dime all night. The close checking rugged style of play perfected by Lyndhurst Motors is the kind of hockey you might see if the Pine Orchard Panthers were playing the Lincolnville Lions. That’s why such a puck artist as Max Bentley was practically useless against the rugged Detroit Red Wings but a sparkling performer against the smooth- passing New York Rangers. You may say that it doesn’t matter how the game is played as long as you win it. That is quite rue in a sense but let both clubs turn to such tactics and the game no longer becomes a sport of skill but a survival of the fittest. Lyndhurst Motors have a number of players who can certainly play the game as it should be played if given a chance. Don Couch is a smooth skater and a good puck juggler but put aim in rough company and he’s lucky to get over the blueline. Moe Galand is as talented a hockey player as ever set foot in the Stouffville arena but he keeps out of harms way by standing out on the centre ice line and streaking for the net should a loose puck chance to roll his way. Ninety per cent of the Clipper forwards are experts when the play is wide open. Geo. Stark, Polly Minton, Nick Bangay and Ronnie Bell can dazzle the opposition when the play is strictly for the puck and not the man. These are the kind of players that send the fans home talking about a thrilling exciting game of hockey and not a disgusting exhibition of stone-age rugby. LYNDHURSTS BELT CLIPPERS 10-4 IN RUGGED GAME
Following two periods of rugged close-checking hockey be-tween Lyndhurst Motors and Stouffville Clippers, right winger Moe Galand stepped into the picture in the third frame and literally stole the show as he potted three goals and picked up one assist as the East York crew routed the locals by a one-sided score of 10-4. The Clippers kept Galand under close observation during periods one and two but in the last twenty minutes of play he broke free from his check to give the Stouffville defence and goaltender Moore a hectic time. Petro and Gray with two. Couch, Flskarl and Clements were the Lyndhurst marksmen. Ronnie Bell. Ken McNeil, Hal Gibson and Frank Stephenson were the Stouffville goalgetters.
There were thirteen penalties in the rough and rugged game, seven to Lyndhurst and six to Stouffville. NICK BANGAY SPARKS CLIPPERS TO 7-5 VICTORY
Stouffville Clippers sparked by left winger Nick Bangay staged a torrid third period attack to overcome 4-0 lead built up by Leaside and take the contest by a score of 7-5. Nick Bangay paced the Stouffville attack with two goals and one assist. Gord Lewis playing his first game with the Clippers this season was a tower of strength up front picking up one goal and an assist. Ronnie Bell, Polly Minton, Small and Pendlebury were the other Stouffville marksman. FULL MINOR HOCKET SETUP
A full hockey setup is being planned for Stouffville, At a meeting held at Newmarket, Thursday evening of last week Stouffville put in an entry for three minor hockey teams in the North York League. The setup however hinges on whether funds are available to provide ice time for the Midget, Bantam and Juvenile teams. Another meeting is scheduled in two weeks and something more definite should be arranged at that time. The group hopes to draw up a schedule by Dec 1st. In past years the Stouffville Athletic Club sponsored these teams but since it has folded it is hoped that another organization will carry on. SENIOR HOCKEY LEAGUE BARS NEWMARKET CLUB
The OHA Metro Sr. B group turned down an application from Newmarket Spitfires to gain an entry in the local league. Convenor Stan Wadlow claimed that it was strictly against the groups policy of no travelling outside theOHA limits of the Toronto Metropolitan area. The Newmarket management desired to replace Lyndhurst in the group when the later leaves for the Olympic Games in Sweden in February. The Stouffville Clipper management felt that Newmarket would be an asset to the group and were in favor of allowing them to enter the group. LOCAL HIGH SCHOOL TOP RUGBY SQUAD
Stouffville High School rugby squad swamped Richmond Hill 51-20 last Tuesday. Frisby was the big scorer for the home team as he piled up 37 points on seven touchdowns and two converts. The first score of the game came when Frisby plunged for a touch down in the first two minutes of play. The Yonge Streeters bounced right back when Dave “Red” Hart, 185 pound half back ran the kick back for a major. Stouffville pulled away however with two more touch downs by Frisby and one by Ron Peake.
Foord made his first touch down of the year when he ran back the kick opening the second half. Frisby added another four touchdowns and kicked up two converts. Dave Hart got three of Richmond Hills five touchdowns. Stouffville kept to the ground during the game. Foord threw only ten passes completing seven of them. The Stouffville line played a good defensive game stopping many of the plays for a lose. This win places Stouffville in an undisputed first place. The last game of the regular schedule is in Markham this Wednesday.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas PLAYERS MUST PAY IF THEY WISH TO PLAY
The organization of Midget, Bantam and Juvenile hockey teams in Stouffville depends on the willingness of the players involved to aid in the cost of operating such a setup. Previously the Stouffville Athletic Club sponsored the three teams but since this organization has folded it was thought that the expenditure might be absorbed by the Stouffville Lions Club. However, at a meeting on Monday evening it was decided by the local service club thai the cost involved in taking over the entire Stouffville minor hockey setup was too great. The Lions Club would be willing to bear a certain portion of the expense but the complete absorption was believed entirely out of the question. The Lions have expended some $600 for ice time in providing hockey for the local Peewee League in addition to buying some $300 worth of sweaters for the boys. The members believed that there were many other worthwhile uses to which their finances could be channelled and it was not fair to spend close to $2000 on hockey alone. So now its up to the interested boys whether there will be Midget, Bantam or Juvenile hockey here this season. The Athletic Club has some leftover funds to get the teams started, the players themselves will be expected to carry on when all available funds are used A REGRETTABLE INCIDENT
By now most hockey fans will have heard about the regrettable incident which took place in the Stouffville Arena on Saturday night. Regrettable in the fact a star hockey player should be hospitalized by an opposing player who apparently has no control over his actions and regrettable that a black mark should be registered against the sport of hockey itself. Certainly any athlete who is unable to control his temper should not take part in the game for his own good and the good of others. To briefly describe the incident as witnessed from the sidelines, Nick Bangay of Stouffville and Frank Ptastnik of Ravina Flyers clashed near the boards about fifteen feet inside the Flyers blueline. Bangay brought his stick up high on Ptastnik and as he turned to skate away the Toronto forward reeled back and lashed Bangay across the face and head with his stick. The stick broke with the blade sailing into the south row seats. Bangay dropped to the ice as players from both teams rushed in from all sides. Bangay received a major and Ptastnik was banished from the game with a match penalty and will appear before the O.H.A. Board. One could not blame officiating for the outbreak as the game was kept well in hand by referee Larry Heffering of Whitby. Hockey fans will recall a similar incident which occurred in the Stouffville Arena couple of seasons back when Mclver of Orillia went berserk. Although no one was injured as was the case on Saturday night, it too might have had serious results. It was later learned this is not the first such occurrence for the Ravina player. He now states that he is through with organized hockey. No doubt many fans and players who witnessed the fracas will relieved at such a decision. Hockey is still a sport and its time some players began to realize this fact. HEAD GASH IN VICIOUS ATTACK BY REVINA PLAYER
Two periods of clean, fast hockey ended on a sour note on Saturday night as Nick Bangay, Stouffville Clipper left wing star was clubbed for 25 stitches across the side of the head by Frank Ptastnik of Ravina Flyers. Bangay was knocked unconscious to the ice by the force of the blow. Following treatment he was allowed to return home. On Sunday afternoon he was taken to Toronto East general Hospital where X-rays were made to determine the extent of his injury. It is feared he will be out of action for some time.
With less than a minute remaining in Th. game, Frank Stephenson picked up a pass from Small at the Ravina blueline and rifled a shot to the top corner of the Toronto Net to give the Clippers a 4-3 victory.
For Stouffville, Elwood Small looked exceptionally good with Ronnie Bell, Polly Minton, Gord Lewis and Don MacIntosh showing up well.
Nov. 9 1953 EDITOR’S MAIL
Dear Sir,
Stouffville hockey fans are not altogether pleased with the hockey spectacle which is being dished up each Saturday night at the local arena. The Toronto Senior B League is running according to prediction and fails to stir up any more interest than any game between the Clippers and a T.H.L. team. The league is not to be compared with last years setup including Oshawa, Kingston, Peterboro and other recognized large centres and the Clipper club may have to pay the price of lack of interest in escaping the long road trips. For this reason alone they are entered in the O.H.A. Metro League. While some of the hockey is as good, lack of community rivalry is quite apparent.
Added to the poor interest derived from these city teams has been the rough-house tactics displayed on the last two occasions. Lyndhursts are renounced for forcing the opposition into a rough house game and their manager brought similar upheavals to local hockey games a few years back when he led another senior team. In this league Sat. night could have a fatality when Nick Bangay, star performer here of long standing was cut across the head for tewnty-five stitches and possible concussion by an opposing player from West Toronto. The visiting player has been automatically suspended from hockey for the second time in his career.
It is quite apparent that stiffer officiating must be applied or serious results may occur. Left over mercantile referees are not proving adequate for OHA standards.
Yours for better hockey. LYNDHURSTS GO TO THE OLYMPICS
Gregg Currie’s Lyndhurst Motors will represent Canada in the world hockey tournament to be held in Sweden next spring. The East York squad will vacate the local grouping in February and a replacement is being sought to fill in during their absence . It is a great opportunity for the management and players and it is likely The East Yorkers will walk off with the Olympic honours without too much difficulty. NEWMARKET SPITFIRES TRY AGAIN FOR SENIOR ENTRY
At the present time Newmarket Spitfires are sitting on the fence. They refuse to enter Intermediate A grouping. They want to play in the Sr B Metro League or disband altogether. The Spitfire management is suffering the same headache as experienced by the Clippers last season, when they found it necessary to journey over a hundred miles to games in Kingston and Belleville. Newmarket could gain the services of ex-pro Herbie Cain if they entered the local “B” group but he along with numerous other prospects refuses to play if long trips are involved. It appears that every team in the Metro group is agreeable to the Newmarket entry with the exception of the Ravina Flyers. Stouffville would certainly welcome the canal town entry. A special vote of the O.H.A. executive is to o taken early this week and the outcome will rest on their final decision.
Jackie Rhodes, star netminder with the Clippers three seasons ago, returned to the Stouffville lineup last week. He will act as the Clipper’s sub goalie and will probably see action in numerous games.

Congratulation Stouffville Rugby Squad
Congratulations are due to the Stouffville District High School rugby squad for bringing home the district championship. The local squad completed the season one point up on Markham who finished in second place. It’s been a long hard grind for the winners a team that was not satisfied to be second best. Other years the Stouffvllle crew ran into a stone wall at Richmond Hill but this season walked through the Yonge Street squad for two straight victories. Stouffville, Markham, Richmond Hill and Newmarket formed the district high school group. The champions were coached and managed by Mr. Mercer and Mr. Marshall with Len Wilkes handling the officiating at all contests. The lineup for Stouffvllle was as follows: backs, Ray Foord, Don Haines; half backs, Graham Frisby, Glenn Thompson, Carl Timbers, Allan Stouffer; Line, Jim Coultice, Ron Peake, Garth Brubacher, Jim Hollingsworth, Don Tran, Ed Mile and Bob Barnes. CANADIENS BEAT LEAFS IN LION’S PEE WEE OPENER
Montreal Canadiens led by rightwinger Murray Holden scored a 3-1 win over the
Maple Leafs in the opening Lions NHL hockey game played in the arena on Saturday afternoon.
Holden’s first goal came early in the game on a pass from Bill Sanders. His backhand drive caught the top corner of the net before Wilkes in the Leaf cage could move to cover the shot. Midway through the contest centre Don Tran cleared the puck out in front of he Leaf cage from the corner and Holden standing at the edge of the crease banged into the twine to give the Canadiens a 2-0 lead. The Maple Leafs broke the ice with ten minutes remaining as Gord Johnston raced in from the blueline and lifted the puck over goaltender Todd in the cage. Todd had previously made two spectacular stops before the puck was finally pushed by him. In the late stages of the game Holden notched his third tally as he picked up pass and tapped it into the corner. For the leafs Doug G., Earl Thompson and Gary Geer looked good while Hlden, Tran Epworth and McMullen were best for the winners.
In the second game Boston scored a 4-2 victory over Rangers. Ron Hedges was the main cog in the Bruin machine with a dazzling three goal effort. Wayne Redshaw scored the other Boston tally. Bill White and Don Neal were the New York marksmen.
In the final contest the Black Hawks upset Detroit 4-2. The Chicago goals were evenly divided among Gary Taylor, Rickey Wedseltoft, Todd and Redshaw, Gord Tarr and David Smith were the Red Wing marksmen. CLIPPERS TAKE FIRST PLACE WITH DOUBLE WIN DURING WEEKEND
Stouffville Clippers took over sole possession of first in the Metro Senior B league on Saturday night virtue of an 8-1victory over the Aurora Lumbermen. The Stouffville goals were evenly divided among the players with Stephenson notching two, Ronnie Bell, Hal Gibson, Joe Scattalon, Geo. Stark, Polly Minton and Gord Lewis potting singles. There were two or three brief flareups during the contest with four majors and a match misconduct penalty being handed out by referee Eddie Hodgson. Joe Scattalon and Don Avery became involved in a wrestling bout in the first period and received majors for fighting. In the second frame defenceman Don MacIntosh of the Clippers and Avery of Aurora were banished with majors and in the third period, Milt Cork of the Lumbermen was hoisted out the game for showering the officials with some profane language. In the goal scoring department, Frank Stephenson put Stouffville into the lead on a pass from Minton with Cork of Aurora in the penalty box.
Ronnie Bell and Gord Lewis and Polly Minton made it 6-1 from MacIntosh and Stephenson with but five minutes remaining in the period gord lewis rifled a bullet drive into the open corner from Small and Stephenson and notched the final goal of the game from Macintosh. The Clippers could easily run the score into the double figures as they dominated the play throughout the game. Ronnie Bell and Frank Stephenson both bounced the oil the post when they had the goaltender at their mercy.

by Jim Thomas A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
It appears almost certain now that the Newmarket Spitfires will be allowed to replace Lyndhurst Motors in the Metro Sr. B group. Gregg Currie’s East Yorkers are slated to leave for Sweden on Dec. 10th to represent Canada at the world hockey tournament. If the switch goes through the O.H.A. will certainly have taken a step in the right direction. The Spitfires under the coaching reins of ex-Montrealer Herbie Cain will add a lot of colour to the Metro loop and will also provide that community attraction which is so sorely lacking in the league. At the present time a person would need only to attend a game between Collingwood and Newmarket to discover that the canal town is a real enthusiastic hockey centre. They should not only draw well at their home games but should bring added cash customers to the rinks around the circuit. At an O.H.A.sub committee meeting held earlier the board turned thumbs down on a Newmarket request by Herb Cain and Co. to enter a team in the group immediately. This request could hardly be O.K.’d since the schedule is now almost one month old. Newmarket will receive a bye into the O.H.A. Sr. B playdowns. The big chore which now confronts the spitfire management is the rounding up of hockey competition for exhibition contests from now until the middle of December. Its a good thing for Newmarket that the Spits management is a persistent lot or “big time” hockey in the Hub centre would be a dead issue. BOWLING NEWS

Bell Cracks Three Ribs
Ronnie Bell will be sidelined for two weeks following an accident on Saturday night in which the Stouffville forward crashed into the board and suffered two cracked ribs. Stouffville downed their opposition Ravina Flyers 5-2. Bell was the spark plug in the Clipper attack before he was helped off the ice in the second period. He counted two tallies in the first period and assisted on another goal by defenceman Don MacIntosh. Elwood Small, Jerry Junkin andGord Lewis were the other Stouffville marksmen. Hal Kewley notched both goals for Ravina. The injury to Bell puts two Clipper forwards on the side- lines as Nick Bangay has not as yet fully recovered from his head injury. On Monday night the Flyers downed Leaside leaving the Clippers and Lyndhurst Motors deadlocked in first place. LEASIDE EDGES CLIPPERS IN OVERTIME GAME
Leaside came from behind on two occasions Wednesday night to score a 3-2 victory over Stouffville Clippers in a midweek overtime clash. Stouffville led 1-0 after complete periods of play but Leaside rallied to deadlock the score in the third and send both teams into overtime. The Clippers went one up early in the overtime session but Leaside came back with two answered tallies to win the game. Ronnie Bell counted the lone goal in the first period on passes from Junkin and Baker at 15.45 to put the Clippers in the lead. Both teams battled through twenty minutes of scoreless hockey in the second period with much of the play- centreing between the bluelines. At the ten minute mark of the third frame John Sullivan of Leaside fired the puck into the empty net with Eatough lying off to one side. With eleven minutes remaining in the period Stephenson was banished by referee Jim Crombie to the penalty box for high sticking but the Clippers held the fort. With three minutes to go Magdy of Leaside was penalized for tripping and although the local squad came close to blinking the light every shot fell short of hitting the open corner. The Clipper forwards found themselves o-ver the blueline time and time again but instead of shooting they selected to pass and their plays were bottled up by a protruding skate or stick. Elwood Small scored early in the overtime session from Minton and Stephenson with quick low wrist shot on a close in play. Three minutes later Walt Magdy caught the corner to put both teams on even terms for the second time in the night. The pace of the game speeded up considerably following the Leaside tally and both goaltenders were tested with a number of hard shots. At 6.07 Bill Pennock stole the puck off defenceman Don MacIntosh and shoved it through Eatough’s pads for the winner. Although coach Bangay pulled Eatough from the net with thirty seconds remaining the forwards were not able to sink the equalizer. There were fourteen penalties in the game, eight to Stouffville and six to Leaside. MacIntosh spent eight minutes in the cooler with four of the Clippers eight penalties. The local squad take on the powerful Lyndhurst Motors on Saturday night with first place at stake.

Over five hundred interested parents and spectators from Stouffville and Oshawa were on hand at the Stouffville Arena on Monday evening for the pop concert staged by the combined skating clubs of Stouffville and Oshawa. While this fall concert is only a preliminary to the big spring skating revue the display was good and was thoroughly enjoyed. Don Jackson, young teenager with his Raggedy Anne number was one of the big hits of the show while the wee toddlers are always a favourite with the crowd. THE WAY HOCKEY SHOULD BE PLAYED
The game on Saturday night between the Stouffville Clippers and Lyndhurst Motors was one of the best played contests we’ve seen here this season. The pace was fast from the drop of the puck and cleanly played when compared with a number of previous meetings between these two rivals. When it comes to so-called rough play where players drop their sticks and gloves for a brief boxing or wrestling match, no one will harshly criticize their actions. Its when players resort to wild stick- swinging exhibitions that the ire of the spectators is raised. Its very seldom that one hears of a man being injured on the ice during a skirmish when only boxing or wrestling tactics are used. It takes skill and science to box and wrestle but it certainly doesn’t take an ounce of skill to clout an opposing player with a stick. Despite the lose sustained by the Clippers, the spectators were well leased with the brand o hockey displayed by the two clubs. MINOR HOCKEY GROUP NAMES WIDEMAN COACH
Stouffville has organized a complete minor hockey setup with Midget, Bantam and Juvenile teams entered in the North York League. Art Wideman will coach the midgets, Bill Lennox will instruct the bantams and Jerry Hooker will handle the coaching duties of the juvenile team. A manager has also been named for each club. The schedules have been drawn up and the teams will see action this week. CLIPPERS WIN 8-2 OVER LUMBERMEN
Stouffville Clippers 8-2 victory over the Lambton Lumbermen on Tuesday night in a game riddled by penalties. In the first period alone there were twelve penalties, seven to Aurora and five to the Clippers. McNeil , MacIntosh and Small were the goalgetters for Stouffville in the first period. Each club counted a pair in the second frame. MacIntosh notched his second and Jerry Junkin tallied the fifth Stouffville marker in the final period. The lumbermen fell apart under terrific Stouffville pressure as the Clippers added three more to their total. MacIntosh, Small and Scatalon were the local marksmen. MECHANICS TURNEY
A real bowling war is brewing in Stouffville’s west end garages. Last week Jerry Hooker rolled an 800 plus and since chalking up the score he has dared the other mechanics at Mole Motors to challenge him in a bowling duel. The winners will then battle the bowlers from Les Wilson Motors. It may well turn out to be a real race between the Pontiac and the Studebaker PLAYER OUT FOR A YEAR FOR BANGAY ATTACK
At a meeting of the O.H.A.executive last week it was ruled that Frank Ptastnik player with the Ravina Flyers who was alleged to have struck Stouffville Clipper forward Nick Bangay over the head with the intentions of causing bodily harm was suspended for a one year term. The incident took place in the Stouffville arena on the night of Nov 7th. Bangay has been out of the Clipper lineup for nearly a month. CLIPPERS LOSE IN OVERTIME
Stouffville Clippers were given a rude third period jolt on Monday night as the Dynes Leasiders spotted them a three goal lead then rallied to tie up the game in the final seconds and score a 7-5 victory in overtime. The Clippers showed complete mastery over their rivals in the first and second periods and built up a comfortable lead in the third period. However, the locals slackened their effort and Leaside took advantage of their lapses to pull up on even terms. The tying goal was scored with but twenty-five seconds remaining in the game. In the overtime Leaside continued to press and counted two more tallies to salt the game away. Elwood Small was the top marksman for Stouffville with three goals. Ken McNeil and Don MacIntosh notched singles LYNDHURST EDGE CLIPPERS 4-3
Lyndhursts were completely outplayed in the first period and only inaccuracy around the East York net prevented the Stouffville squad from sewing contest up in the opening twenty minutes. Both clubs set a terrific pace throughout the contest although the Clippers seemed to slacken their efforts when on two occasions they jumped in to a one goal lead. Both teams were deadlocked at the end of the first and second periods but a tally by forward Vic Sluce at 7.15 on a goalmouth pass from Moe Galand upset the Clippers fruit basket. Polly Minton was the top sniper for Stouffville with two goals with Joe Scatalon notching the other. Gord Lewis picked up assists on each goal. A former Stouffville player Vic Sluce proved to be the thorn in the Clippers side with a pair while Bob Kennedy and Earl Clements fired the others. The largest crowd of the season was on hand for the game.

Fourteen years ago at the age of 10, Polly Minton embarked on a hockey career in a strange way. Because he had not learned to skate Polly donned the heavy pads and tended goal in a Unionville kids league. The rink was made available to these young boys every Saturday morning. At the age of 13 Polly put on his first pair of hockey skates and with the aid of rubber ankle supports he struggled around the ice. The lack of skating ability did not discourage Polly however, but instead made him more determined to improve. In 1942 Polly played on his first organized team at Richmond Hill coached by Grant Nighswander of Markham with such stars as Frank Sullivan, Mac Clement and Norm Stunden. The club went through to capture the championship. The following year Polly hooked up with Markham Juniors but later moved to join the Stouffville Red Wings coached by Bruce Harper and managed by Bob Snowball. Some of the players on that club were Keith Jewett, Bill Mabbett, Jack and George Rumney, Doug Moore, Don Campbell, Gord Lewis and others. Polly centreed a line with Jewett and Skip Taylor on the wings during his three year stint with Stouffville. Polly played against such clubs as Owen Sound, Goderich and Gananoque. Polly was selected to represent the Stouffville club in the Ontario All-Star game played at Maple Leaf Gardens. Polly recalls the days when he played in Stouffville’s natural ice rink. “Nearly make a man seasick,” said Polly when commenting on the rolling ice surface. Those were the days when spectators journeyed to distant centres by bus loads and arrived home some time dining the early hours of the next morning. Following the three years in which the Red Wings were the centre of attraction here in Stouffville, the majority of the players became overage and the club broke up. Polly still had three years left as a junior, so once again he returned to Unionville, his hockey birthplace, where he played with such stars as Bill Boycott, Frank Hill, Morley Petch, Bud Watson and Normie Stunden. Although the club put up a gallant fight it lost out to Weston through sheer weight of numbers. It was in that year that Polly had his golden opportunity to move up into hockeys “big time.” When an offer came for him to join the Galt Jr. “A” Black Hawks. Polly turned down the offer a decision he still regrets somewhat to this day. Polly’s next step up the hockey ladder was to the Stouffville Clippers under the coaching leadership of Bert Fife. He has been a member of the Clippers since that time.
Although Polly has held down a centre ice position with local clubs during most of his hockey career, he still prefers right wing. He is noted for his shifty free-skating style which has come a long way since the days when he wobbled around the rink as a 13 year old aided by a hockey stick and a pair of rubber ankle supports. In spite of his love of clean play he has run into a number of very serious injuries. In midland he was cut for twelve stitches over the eye by a flying puck. Here in Stouffville, during a game with Orillia, forward Rusty Aiken of Orillia sliced his face with his skate which required fifteen stitches and on another occasion here he collided with team mate George Stark at centre ice and suffered a severe concussion. Other minor injuries are too numerous to mention. Polly has always been a money player. If a team was one or two goals behind in an important game it would usually be Polly Minton who would come through when the chips were down. Two years ago when Stouffville marched to the O.H.A. Sr ‘B’ championship, Polly scored the winning goals against Peterboro and Port Colborne He also scored many game- winning goals while in Jr. company during his eleven years in organized hockey. Polly has played with many stars of the game from this ever growing assortment, he picks Gord Lewis as one of the best he ever played with. Both Gord and Polly are two of Stouffville s original junior hockey players. This week we salute Stouffville’s own Polly Minton, a player who has come up through the ranks of local hockey to become a solid favourite with hockey fans both young and old. His fast-skating, clean style of play would be an asset to any club. MIDGETS LOSE TO UNIONVILLE
Unionville and Stouffville Midgets hooked up on Friday night in an exhibition tilt with the visitors eking a 4-3 victory. The contest was a nip-and-tuck affair with the outcome being in doubt right to the final whistle. Stouffville took a 3-2 lead in the first period. Don tTran counted the opening tally, early in the game but the visitors came back to tie the score as Michael Petit blinked the light. Unionville took the lead midway through the period as Jack Darbyson scored. Alfred Fairles put the locals back on even terms and followed through with another on a pass from Ross Madill to give Stouffville a 3-2 edge. Unionville fought back and evened the score in the second frame as Jack Darbyson scored the lone tally in the period. In the final session Atkinson of Unionville notched the winner. There were nine penalties in the game, five to Stouffville and four to Unionville. Alfred Fairles of Stouffville and Lack Darbyson of Unionville were the top players on the ice. Darbyson’s effort were somewhat hindered in the last period however as he became involved in a squabble with Don Tran and talked himself into a ten minute misconduct. The contest was handled by Ken Laushway. EATOUGH BLANKS RAVINAS 8-0
Stouffville goaltender, Eatough racked up his shut out of the season here Saturday night as they blanked Ravina Flyers. Gord Lewis was the topsman for the winners with three goals. Jerry Junkin with two, Hal Gibson, Jack and Ken McNeil were the other Stouffville scorers.
The Clippers jumped into a 2-0 lead early in the first. Gord Lewis fired his goal at the five minute mark assisted by Bert Baker and Hal Gibson combined with centreman Ken McNeil at 10.15 notch the second tally.
Early in the second period, Stephenson became involved a high sticking duel with Byers of Ravina and was forced out of the game with a gash over the eye. Byer given a five minute major while Stephenson was penalized for two minutes. His penalty was served by Jack Watson. The Clippers jumped into a 4-0 lead in the second minutes on goals by Junkin from Scatalon and Gord Lewis from Gibson. Eatough came up with a sensational stop early in the period when a Ravina rushed in alone only to be stopped cold by two skates, two pads, two hands and a stick. Gord Lewis completed the hat trick early in the third period on a pass from George Stark. The two-way passing effort produced the picture goal of the game. Ken McNeil made it 6-0 from Gibson and Jack Watson put is team seven goals up from . Jerry Junkin notched the final goals he slipped it around the corner of the net. BOWLING NEWS

Some ten local sportsmen are members of the “broom and stone” organization. They are Walter Brillinger, Dr. Ron Smith, Geo. Rodanz, Gar Lehman, Gord Birkett, Morley Symes, Geo.

SHOULD LYNDHURST REPRESENT CANADA FOR WORLD TITLE?
Critics near and been expressing grave concern over the fact that Canada will be represented by Lyndhurst Motors at the world hockey tournament to be held in Stockholm, Sweden. Some “know-all” over in London, England started the rumours flying when he decided to fill up some vacant editorial space with questionable references to the Canadian entry. This columnist claimed that to his knowledge there were no outstanding stars on the Lyndhurst team. Further on he mentioned the minor detail that it had been twenty years since he had last visited Canada. Since that brief barrage, other sports writers and interested individuals have both supported and resented the charges. The trouble lies in the fact that Senior B hockey isn’t respected as highly as it should be. Jr. ‘A’ and Sr. ‘A’ and N.H.L. players receive headline publicity but Sr. ‘B’ is hardly recognized to many outsiders. Lyndhurst Motors has about as much significance as a club from the Toronto Hockey League. Why? Because they don’t receive the publicity they deserve. In my own mind I don’t believe Gregg Currie’s squad represents the best Sr. ‘B’ team in circulation, but I do think that the majority of players on the team have above average hockey ability. They certainly have one of the fastest skating clubs in their class and if the centre-ice body checking is erased from the game they will be hard to hold. The inclusion of a Russian hockey representative seems to have struck fear and trembling into the hearts of many these so-called critics. They should remember when countries send individuals and teams into world competition they are not going to war. That is the one outstanding feature of any Olympic Games of world tournaments. There is no such thing and friend or foe, ally or enemy. If Russia did happen to eliminate Canada it wouldn’t be such a terrible disgrace. Here’s wishing Lyndhurst Motors the best of luck in their world hockey venture. Any success that they obtain will be for the good of Senior ‘B’ hockey in Ontario. HADDLETON NETS TWO AS CLIPPERS WIN CLOSE ONE
Centreman Gordie Haddleton’s two third period goals on Saturday right gave the Clippers a 4-3 edge over Ravina Flyers. The score was deadlocked 2-2 at the midway mark in the final frame when Haddleton struck at 10.30 on passes from Minton and Stephenson. At the fifteen minute mark, the Clipper centre star took a pass from defenceman Bert Baker and rapped it home for what proved to be the winner. Ravina broke into an early game lead when Priory and Battersby combined to blink the light before the period was a minute old. Ronnie Bell teamed up with winger George Stark to square the score at 7.35. There was only one goal scored in the second period. George Stark picked up his second point of the night with line mates, Ronnie Bell and Gord Lewis assisting. The Flyers rallied at 6.07 of he third period to pull up on even terms, but Haddleton came to the rescue and hammered home two tallies. With but three minutes remaining in the game Russ Kwas put Ravina back in the running but they could not sink the equalizer. BOSTON PEEWEES HAVE INITIAL LOSS, 6-4
Don Haines fired four goals for the Detroit Red Wings to lead his team to a 6-4 victory over the first place Boston Bruins on Saturday afternoon in Lions NHL activity. iI was the first loss for the powerful Boston squad in seven starts. Wayne Redshaw and Gord Eckardt were the Boston marksmen. Garth Brubacher is handling the coaching duties of the league leaders while Tom Wedseltoft is looking after the Wings. FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR MINOR HOCKEY
With the folding of the Stouffville Athletic club last year, minor hockey in Stouffville was struck a severe blow. Without some financial support it seemed likely that there would be no teams operating other than the lions club pee-wee league. The Athletic Club had some funds on hand but without individual contributions the outlook looked bleak. Word concerning the serious situation has spread around with the result that numerous gifts of money have been received.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas MUST SHOOT TO SCORE
Some of the Stouffville Clipper forwards seem to be genetically attracted to that circular piece of rubber called a puck. When they get it they won’t let go. During the past few games it has been very noticeable that some Stouffville forwards insist on skating right in on the goaltenders doorstep before they elect to shoot. Consequently a skate or a stick of a defending player is almost certain to get in the way and the puck bounces harmlessly into the corner. Two of the Clippers who try time and time again to shift the goaltender out or his pads are Elwood Small and Ronnie Bell, and time and time again they are checked before the puck leaves their sticks. With the introduction of the new red line ruling into Sr. B hockey this year it is possible for a player to drive the puck from centre ice. Although I believe it detracts rather than adds any skill to the game the rule is there so the players should take advantage of it. Spectators will admit that goals scored by a player who is able to dipsy-doodle his way through a maze of sticks skates and legs and tuck the puck in the net look much prettier than a long shot from the blueline, but one must remember that fluke goals will win hockey games as well as those scored by shifty stick work. On friday night during the Lyndhurst-Stouffville contest Clipper forwards had numerous chances to score but they elected to skate and stickhandle themselves dizzy inside the East York blueline without taking one direct shot on the net. The result was that they wound up on the short side of a 6-4 score. The idea of the game is not to discover what player can hang onto the puck the longest, but to see how many times in sixty minutes of play the team can blink the light behind the net. PLAY BACKFIRES, STEPHENSON SCORE ON EMPTY NET
With about twenty seconds left in Saturday nights game between Stouffville Clippers and Aurora Lumbermen, winger Frank Stephenson fired a long shot into the empty visitor’s cage while the goal-tender sat on the bench in favour of an extra forward. The tally climaxed the uphill battle for Stouffville who were trailing 2-0 at one point in the game. Aurora set the Clippers back on their heels in the first period with two unanswered goals. Frank Summerville and Bell were the marksmen for the visitors. Midway through the second frame Elwood Small picked up Gordie Haddleton’s rebound and slapped it into the twine to put the homesters back in the game. Small put both clubs on even terms a few minutes later as he skated in alone from the blueline. Haddleton and Scatalon picked up assists on the play. The tempo of the contest increased in the final frame as both teams worked hard for that all-important third tally. Jerry Junkin finally scored what proved to be the winner from McNeil and Mcintosh. Plat see-sawed back and forth until with less than a minute to play the Aurora goaltender evacuated his cage and Stephenson teed off for a hole-in-one. SCORED HAT TRICK IN LION NHL
Don Neil of the Rangers and Wayne Redshaw of Boston each scored three goals to lead their respective clubs to victory in the Lions NHL activity on Saturday morning. nNw York overpowered the Leafs 10-3. Boston defeated Chicago 7-1 and the Canadiens scored a 5-3 win over Detroit. Although Neal set the pace in the one- sided Ranger win two other players notched two goal. Mike McStravik and Ted Zusuki each counted twice while Dean Evans, Billy White and Warren Hendricks fired singles. Steve Wideman, Norm Hendricks and Roger Beasley were the Leaf marksmen.
In the Boston-Chicago contest Redshaw continued his sizzling scoring pace with three, while Ronnie Hedges, Don Benson, Taylor and Stewart were the other goalgetters. Gordie Allman was the lone marksman for the Hawks. The Bruins were held well in cheek throughout the greater portion of the game but in the final live minutes they pulled well out front. In the other game Detroit and Montreal staged a nip-and- tuck battle and although the Canadiens defeated the Wings 5-3 the final score was in doubt throughout the contest. RALLY FALLS SHORT, JUVENILES LOSE TO THORNHILL 5-4
A late game rally fell one goal short for the Stouffville Red Wings on Friday night as they dropped a 5-4 decision to Thornhill. The Yonge Street squad connected for three fast goals in the first period and added another at 4.50 of the second before the Stouffville squad could find the target. Hammersley blinked the light for the homesters on a neat solo effort at the midway mark in the period and four minutes later he notched his second tally on a pass from Bellman. After bouncing the puck off the post on two previous occasions Bishop made it 4-3 with Bellman picking up his second assist. Hart of Thornhill scored at the six minute mark of the final game frame but Bishop nullified that goal with only a few minutes left in the game. Penalties proved costly with thirteen being handed out by the officials, seven to Thornhill and six to Stouffville. Tempers flared on numerous occasions and the officials were kept busy throughout the game. Wilkes guarded the twine for the Red Wings replacing Middleton. Failure on the part of some of the players to arrive on time, the Red Wings were greatly hampered by a drastic player shortage in the early stages of the game. Although they rallied near in the contest they could not overhaul their rivals.
January 21, 1954 ROSS MADILL BLANKS THORNHILL 3-0
When the Stouffville Red Wings arrived in the Nobleton arena on Wednesday night to play Thornhill they found themselves minus their regular goaltender. In desperation they called on the services of Ross Madill who went along only as a spectator and the pint sized puck stopper blanked the Yonge Street squad 3-0, Madill turned in a good game and aided by strong defensive protection the Thornhill squad were held off the score sheet. The entire sixty minutes of hockey were played without a penalty.
Although Stouffville had an edge in play during the first period neither club could blink the light. At the five minute mark of the second frame, Harper opened the scoring and Simpson made it 2-0 with Harper picking up an assist. The Red Wings completed the scoring the final twenty minutes with Bishop netting the puck on passes from Todd and Hammersley. CLIPPERS DROP TWO IN A ROW LAST WEEK
Stouffville Clippers dropped their second straight contest on Saturday night as the fourth place Ravina Flyers scored a 06-3 victory. Eddie Crust was the spark plug for the West Toronto crew with three goals. Don Irwin, former coach of the Unionville Jets also lit the light for the winners. Nick Bangay returned to hockey action and notched one goal Geo. Stark and Chuck Webster were the other Clipper marksmen. The contest was a nip and tuck affair until the final minutes of the period when Ravina scored two fast goals. The three Stouffville goals were scored in the second period. Stark, Bangay and Webster formed a powerful scoring unit for the Clippers and this threesome will probably be used as the Stouffville number one line. Nick Bangay, high scoring Clipper forward returned to action on Saturday night for the first time since his severe head injury suffered two months ago. The colourful speedster will complete a line with Chuck Webster and George Stark.

CLIPPERS BOG DOWN, LEASIDE WINS 8-3
The Stouffville Clipper attack bogged down on Wednesday night as Leaside romped to a comparatively easy 8-3 victory. Both clubs battled to a 2-2 deadlock in the first period but Leaside hammered in three unanswered tallies in the second. The Clippers showed signs of a rally in the final frame but their offensive petered out when they ran into a flood of penalties. Leaside jumped into an early lead at 1.45 of the opening whistle when Ernie Frey blinked the light. Russ Brankston made it 2-0 before the Clippers broke the ice. Bert Baker notched Stouffville’s first goal with a long blueline backhand on a pass from
Haddleton. Elwood Small and Frank Stephenson combined on Stouffville’s nicest play of the night to even the count. With Baker serving an interference penalty, Norm Dowdall put the Leasiders out front to stay. With Baker still in the box, Jim Casburn made it 4-2. When there was less than a minute remaining in the second period, Small handed the puck to Sinclair parked in front of Eatough. The Leaside centreman made no mistake with a quick shot. Stouffville roared to the attack early in the third session and cut the Leaside lead as Stark scored from Bell and Minton. With Scatalon off, Sinclair notched his second goal and McDougall’s shot caromed in off Eatough stick. Sullivan completed the rout with the eighth Leaside tally as 12.42. PICKERING EDGES LOCALS IN A JUVENILE THRILLER
Stouffville Red Wings suffered a 5-1 setback at the hands of Pickering in a thrill packed contest on Friday night. Mashinter in the Pickering nets was a standout performer and turned the Stouffville attackers aside with some terrific saves. Bemer and Jones put the visitors two goals up with solo rushes early in the contest, but Wagg cut the Pickering lead on a pass from Hammersley at the fourteen minute mark. With the Red Wings playing a man short, Hammersley stickhandled out of his own zone and tucked the puck behind the Pickering goalie to tie the score. Field scored two fast goals for Pickering in the second period to put the visitors out front 4- 2. At the thirteen minute mark in the final frame Harper scored and Bishop evened the count for the second time in the game. A minute later on a goalmouth pass from Hammersley, Fairman roared back for Pickering to notch what proved to be the winner. Stouffville had numerous chances to tie up the game again but failed to make the most of their opportunities. EATOUGH SENSATION FOR AVRO TEAM
Netminder Blake Eatough turned in his most sensational goaltending display of the sea son on Friday night as Avro Canucks and Lyndhurst Motors battled to a 7-7 deadlock. Three other Clipper stars, Hal Gibson, Joe Scatalon and Elwood Small supported the Avro attack. It was the final contest for the East Yorkers. They embark for Stockholm, Sweden on Friday. Moe Galand with three goals was the top marksman for Lyndhurst. Kennedy and Shill scored two. Avro held a decided edge over Gregg Currie’s squad throughout the first and second periods but Lyndhurst staged a five goal rally in the final frame. Eatough returned to his old time form in the Avro nets with a dazzling display. At one time Avro were two men short but the lanky puck stopper held the East York attackers at bay.
Jackie Rhodes, regular goaltender with the Clippers a few years back is expected to replace Blake Eatough in the Stouffville cage for the next few games. The switch will give sub goalie an opportunity to prove his worth and Eatough a much needed rest. PAIR OF PEEWEE SCORE EIGHT GOALS
Norm Hendricks and Doug Grerstedt each scored four goals as the Maple Leafs soundly trounced the Black Hawks 9-1 in Lions NHL activity on Saturday. Besides notching the four goals Hendricks picked up four assists and Grenstedt three. It is the second time this season that Hendricks has explode with a four goal barrage. The Leafs have been cellar- dwellers in the Lions league for some weeks but now show signs of moving out of their sixth place position. Herb Dawson counted the other tally for the high flying Leafs while Alan Boyd fired the lone goal for the Hawks.
The other two games were closely matched contests with Detroit edging Boston 6-5 and Rangers and Canadiens battling to a 1-1 deadlock. LEGION TOPS IN MEN’S BOWLING

by Jim Thomas NOTICEABLE BY THEIR ABSENCE
On Friday night in the Stouffville Arena there were two OMHA games. Stouffville Bantams played Cannington while the Midgets met Uxbridge. In those games there were over twenty Stouffville and district boys on the ice and yet only five parents turned out to see their sons take part in a playoff game. What’s wrong? Parents should be interested enough their sons welfare to come out and watch them perform when they begin playoff competition. Any young hockey player would strive for that all-important goal if he knew that his mother or dad were sitting in a front row seat and watching his every move. A young lad is just as thrilled to play before cheering spectators as a NHL players who perform before some thousands of fans in a jam-packed Gardens. On Friday night no one could bring forth the excuse that the admission price was too high because everyone was admitted free of charge. One hockey fan in the arena was heard to comment during the game “ it ill be a great day for me when my son is old enough to play hockey” — I’ll never miss a game.” Thats the attitude every parent should take. GIVE CREDIT TO THE COACHES
Too often when one considers the minor hockey setup in town the work of a coach is overlooked. The coach is the brains behind his clubs success and on his shoulders rests all if problems that usually confront a team during a schedule. The training of the boys along a certain style of play is only one job that a coach must handle. There are hockey sticks to buy, sweaters and equipment to purchase, transportation to arrange, referees to pay, arrange for practices to mention only few of the many headaches. The Stouffville Juveniles who recently were defeated in playoff competition were coached by Jack Hammersley. Giles Tran and Art Wideman directed the Midgets, while Bill Lennox handled the Bantams. The Midgets are still in the playoff running. In order that a man must take on the coaching duties of a club, he must literally “live: the game. Men of this calibre are hard to find and Stouffville is very fortunate in having hockey enthusiasts who are willing share much of their time and money in the training of our up and coming stars. For example, Giles Tran, coach of the Midgets has been paying out of his own pocket, money for the referees, car expenses to transport the players to games, oranges, drinks, etc., just to promote minor in Stouffville. So the next time you witness a Stouffville hockey team in action on the ice, whether it be the Clippers to the Lions Peewee teams, think of the man behind the scenes who controls the club — the coach.

Right-winger Stephenson has suddenly caught fire in the goal scoring department having picked up four tallies and two assists in two games. He came out of the last contest however with a wrenched knee and will probably miss one game due to the injury. STEPHENSON TOPS IN SCORING DEPARTMENT

Ken Sinclair had a wide- open chance to put the East Toronto crew in the lead a-gain as he broke through on Eatough but the Clipper net- minder blocked his drive and the puck ended up on top of the cage.

Stouffville trailed 4-0 in the first, 6-2 in the second, and 9-4 at the whistle.
Cannington racked up a four goal lead early in the game and from that point on the result of the contest was never in doubt.

In the final frame Murray Holden blinked the light on passes from Wayne Redshaw and Doug Grensted and Redshaw completed the scoring for the local squad with Ron Stewart picking up an assist.

Considerable credit is due to Coach Lennox for his untiring work with his hustling Bantam crew. With a little more experience plus some added weight these boys will hold their own when another season rolls around. MIDGETS DEFEAT UXBRIDGE, ENTER SECOND ROUND
Stouffville Commanders local entry in the OMHA Midget playoffs scored a 4-2 victory over Uxbridge on Friday night to take the two game total goal series 12-5.

Stouffville however used their speed and shooting power to an advantage.
Uxbridge counted the first goal of the game as Gene Moore beat Madill in the Stouffville cage at 4.10 of the first period. The Commanders rallied to tie the score early in the second frame.

by Jim Thomas ROUGH HOCKY IS NOT GOOD HOCKEY
You don’t to be a rough and rugged hockey player to be a good hockey player. This idea is being stressed more ion the radio and in the newspapers in order to impress on hie mind- of today’s stars that rough and rugged play will kill the sport. Some players are of the opinion that they can argue and push a hockey official around and get away with it. Let this same player try these tactics in baseball and see what happens. He is immediately banished from the diamond in short order and faces a fine and possible suspension. Some fans love to see teams rough it up but the majority would rather see a clean fast game where neither club is penalized. Think back over the hockey years and you will discover that its the names of clean fast hockey players who have become firmly fixed in ones mind. Such outstanding stars as Syl Apps and Bill Cowley of the N.H.L. Bob Bangay and Bob Lawrie of Intermediate and Senior ranks, Bud Watson and Bun Sellers of local Junior company. All are noted for clever and clean play. Coaches must bring up more hockey talent of this calibre. At the present time many coaches especially in junior ranks appear to be stressing the rough and tough tactics in preference to nifty stickhandling or three-way passing efforts. NEWMARKET SPLITS RALLY TO EDGE CLIPPERS 3-2
Bob Fryday, former A..L. and N.H.L. rightwinger turned in a brilliant performance for Newmarket Spitfires as the visitors scored a 3-2 win over the Clippers in the final scheduled game of the season. Fryday notched the tying tally in the first period and fired the winner at 1.31 of the third frame. CELLER DWELLERS UPSET LEADERS ON LIONS PEEWEE
The three bottom clubs in the Lions Peewee N.H.L. pulled upsets on Saturday afternoon as they bowled over the league leaders by decisive scores. The biggest surprise was the 5-0 shutout registered by the fifth place Leafs over the first place Rangers.
In the other games the Red Wings outscored Canadiens 6-3 and the Hawks downed Boston 4-2. Murray Holden played a standout game in the nets for Canadiens despite the loss. On two occasions he grabbed hard shots from the stick of forward Don Haynes with his gloved hand that were labelled for the top corner. McMullen, Jackson and Tran were the Montreal marksmen with Haynes, Malcolm, Tarr, Dean and McCullough blinking the light for the winners.
The Detroit victory coupled by a Boston loss moved the Red Wings into sole possession of third place and pushed the Bruins into the fourth position. Rangers remain on top of the heap, one point ahead of the second place Canadiens. LARRY BELLMAN TOP BOWLER WITH 309
Larry Bellman last week tacked up the high mens single bowling with a 309. This total was eleven higher than Polly Minton 298 of the previous week. MINOR HOCKEY WINDS UP WHEN MIDGETS DROP TWO
The Stouffville Midget, Bantam and Juvenile teams can hang up their skates as far as OMHA hockey is concerned. The Juveniles lost to Bobcaygeon the Bantams dropped their series to Cannington and T.A. Wilson’s Midget squad turned on Stouffville last week and whipped the Commanders 8-2 and 5-0. Don Haynes notched both tallies for Stouffville. The local squad looked much better than the score would indicate and for the first period on Friday night here they held the heavier Cannington crew off the score sheet. Eight players with the Midgets this season will be eligible to play again next year. Six others will be too old and will have to graduate into the Juvenile ranks if they wish to continue in organized hockey. Players who should line up with the team next year are Bud Thomas, Don Jackson, Don Tran, Bob Todd, Mike McStravick, Don Haynes, Steve Wideman and Bruce Smith. Those who will be ineligible to play are Merlin Harmon, Jack Todd, Ross Madill, Elford Fairles, Jim Rennie and H. Spencely. CLIP AURORA FOR 10TH STRAIGHT WIN
The Stouffville Clippers scored their 10th straight win on Wednesday night of last week as they whipped the fourth place Aurora Lumbermen 7-2. The Aurora “bush league” style of play wasn’t appreciated too much by the slim crowd. It was Auroras home game but was played in Stouffville in hopes of bolstering the Lumbermen’s sagging bank account.
Geo. Stark was the only two- goal man for Stouffville, his seventeenth and eighteenth of the year. Both came in the final frame. Moe Florian, Bert Baker, Joe Scatalon, Chuck Webster and Don McIntosh were the other Clipper marksmen. Jack Rhodes guarded the nets for the winners. Defenseman Bert Baker was moved up on left wing with Lewis and Haddleton and turned in a creditable performance. Gibson, Elwood Small, Frank Stephenson did not dress for the contest.
It marked the final meeting of the season between the two clubs unless by some strange coincidence they should tangle in the playoff finals. This is highly unlikely however. TROPHY PRESENTED TO LIONS LEAGUE
Mr. Jim Austin, an executive with the Ontario Minor Hockey Association has presented the Stouffville Lions Club with a trophy which will be emblematic of the Lions Peewee Hockey Championship. The winning team will have its name inscribed on the trophy. The award will be put up for annual competition and will be known as the “Jim Austin Trophy.” At the present time the Rangers, coached by Bill Lennox are leading the league.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas WILL THEIR FACES BE RED
If Canada’s entry in the World Amateur Hockey Tournament, Lyndhurst Motors should capture the title I would think that many sports writers and sports broadcasters in the city of Toronto would be ashamed to show their faces around the Union Station when the team returns from Sweden. In spite of the blasts directed at Gregg Currie’s squad through the press and radio the East York crew have so far given an excellent account of themselves and at the present time are one of the top contenders for the World Amateur Hockey Championship. Such open criticism as voiced from the sports scribes of Toronto has been nothing short of ridiculous. Sure these sports minded writers have lots of suggestions to present to Geo. Dudley and the CAHA on how to improve Canada’s entry. They even have suggested that a Jr. ‘A’ team should represent Canada in the tourney. As for this writer’s opinion on such a plan, unless the majority of Jr. ‘A’ clubs changed their tactics, I’m afraid they would spend most of the time in the penalty box. Even when the game is played under Canadian rules and regulations penalties are a dime a dozen. The Toronto Lyndhursts received their first official blast from Toronto pressmen when they dropped their exhibition opener to a picked Canadian squad in France. With the exception of one other game the East Yorkers have completely snowed under their opposition, but still the criticism continues. With three straight victories in regulation play the newsmen are beginning to soften up slightly, perhaps because they are now afraid they might be forced to eat some of their words. The Toronto Maple Leafs can beat the lowly Chicago Black Hawks here in Toronto and the following night in the windy city these same Leafs are shut out 2-0 by the same lowly Hawks. Because of this one defeat the sports writers and broadcasters in Toronto don’t put a black border around their column for the remainder of the Stanley cup playoffs, such as they have done with Canada’s chances in the World Tourney. It appears to this writer that in the city of Toronto there are only three teams which as far as sports columnists are concerned carry hockey sticks and wear skates, namely the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Toronto Marlboros and St. Michael’s. All other teams don’t warrant any recognition. The idea of sending a Sr. B entry into the World Amateur Hockey Tournament is too great a shock for these Jr. and Sr. promoters to pass by without some deriding comment. If the Toronto Lyndhursts are able to sweep through with victories over Russia and Czechoslovakia and capture the treasured silverware I should think that many Toronto newspapermen would be ashamed to put in an appearance when East York welcome home its heroes. CLIPPERS LEAD IN SEMI-FINAL TWO GAMES TO NONE
Stouffville Clippers jumped into a two game lead in their best of seven semifinal series with 6-3 and 7-4 victories over Ravina Flyers. The third game is booked for Stouffville on Wednesday night with the fourth contest at Ravina on Saturday. Gordie Haddleton, Frank Stephenson and Polly Minton turned in three star performances for Stouffville on Saturday night. Haddleton scored two goals and picked up two assists. Stephenson counted one and assisted on three while Minton scored one and assisted on two. Bert Baker, Geo, Stark and Ken McNeil were the other Clipper marksmen. Captain Russ Kwas scored two goals for Ravina with Bud McAllister and Fraser Scott notching the others.
Bert Baker turned in his best game of the season on the Stouffville defence and earned himself a goal and assist. Minton, Stark, Haddleton and Stephenson were the other standout stars for the Clippers CANADIENS BEST IN LIONS LEAGUE
Montreal climaxed a season long uphill battle on Saturday afternoon as they pushed the New York Rangers out of the top rung in the Lion’s Peewee League. The Canadiens 4-1 win over the powerful Rangers put the Montrealers all alone in the number one position. First line forwards Don Tran and Murray Holden each counted singles for the winners, while mike Epworth, left winger on the second line notched two. McMullen picked up an assist on the one tally scored by Epworth while Todd assisted on Holden’s goal. Spencely fired the lone Ranger goal on a pass from centreman Don Neal.
The Detroit Red Wings one of the hottest clubs in the league at present moved into a second place tie with the Rangers as they scored a 6-3 win over Boston. Don Haynes’ squad put on a brilliant passing display inside the Boston blueline and had Goalie Wilkes practically standing on his head as he sprawled to smother shots from every side and angle. Ron McCullough led the Detroit attack with three goals with singles going to Bob Lehman, Sandy Smith and Malcolm. Wayne Redshaw and Ron Hedges were the Boston goal getters. In the first game of the afternoon the two bottom clubs squared off and Bill
Bockmaster’s Leafs came out on top with a 3-1 win over the Hawks. Steve Wideman counted two goals for the winners and Norm Hendricks notched the other. Carter fired the lone Hawk goal.
The Lions League this season is a well-matched group with only four points separating the top four clubs. There are still four games left in the schedule before the playoffs. The winning club will have its name inscribed on the newly presented Jim Austin trophy emblematic of the Stouffville Lions Peewee Championship.

The third contest saw the Red Wings overpower the Black Hawks 4-2. Don Haynes led the Wings with two goal. Malcolm and McCullough notched singles. Gary Taylor and Carter fired the The Hawk tallies. STOUFFVILLE CLIPPERS PLAN TO ENTER TEAM IN MARKHAM TWP. SOFTBALL LEAGUE
The Stouffville Clipper Hockey Club stated thus week that the team are very much interested in entering their club in the Markham Twp softball league this summer. Practically every player on the Stouffville squad is an accomplished softball star. Whether the Buttonville team will disband remains a question. If the Clippers go through with their plans their games will be played under the Stouffville floodlights. In all likelihood the team that represented Stouffville in the league last year will continue to operate.
Other communities have given early notice that they wish to enter the popular Markham Twp. group. Wexford, Claremont and Aurora are very much interested. Claremont vacated the Markham setup and played in the Whitby league last year after a strong showing two years ago. Thornhill are expected to pull out this season. An entry from Peaches is still a question mark. Last year teams expected to be back in action are Stouffville, Markham, Richmond Hill and Unionville. According to the league secretary, Mr. Ernie Appleton a meeting of the league will be called early in April to discuss the new applicants. SERIES WITH RAVINA FLYERS IS ALL EVEN
Ravina Flyers, underdogs the best of seven semifinal series with the Clippers have shown a sharp reversal of form in their last two contests.

At 1.57 of the second period Stouffville finally broke onto the score sheet when Lewis bounced an ankle drive off the goaltender’s pads into the corner. Haddleton picked up an assist on the play. At 3.30 of the overtime period the roof fell in on the locals as the city boys scored two unanswered goals. Due to bad weather Stark and Baker did not make the game.

by Jim Thomas TED TOPPING AN (OFFICIAL) RESIDENT OF STOUFFVILLE
In December, Ted Topping moved from his home in Toronto to the Timbers subdivision west of Stouffville where he now resides. Since his arrival here he has been actively engaged in officiating at OHA and OMHA games. Viewers of TV have probably seen this genial Stouffville resident in action while he officiates at Jr ‘A’ contests in Maple Leaf Gardens.
Ted first donned the white sweater and carried the tin whistle in 1947 as an official for the Toronto Hockey League. He was then given active duty with the THL Major League before moving up into the OHA ranks in 1950. During the past four seasons he has had many interesting and exciting hockey experiences. He tells of one stormy night he and another official were forced to drive from Toronto to Brampton with their heads out the window in order to keep their vehicle on the road.
Ted points out that officiating before a huge crowd has no effect on his calling of plays. He says he feels just as much at home on the ice before 10,000 fans as 100. The warm temperature of the Gardens makes it extremely hard for officials to work a game. Ted claims that following a speedy Jr.’A’ contest his clothing is often wringing wet with perspiration.
In commenting on a comparison between Jr ‘A’ hockey and Sr. ‘B’, Ted states that he believes the Stouffville Clippers would probably defeat an average Jr. ‘A’ club such as St. Michael’s. The Seniors would be able to use their excess weight to advantage but the Juniors would out-hustle the rSs. in 60 minutes of wide-open play. During his four years of officiating in Maple Leaf Gardens, Ted is of the opinion that any official can quite handily pick out players that are bound to make a spot on futureNHL teams. Henri Richard is Ted’s idea of an almost perfect Jr. ‘A’ star. During the war years, Ted was stationed at Ottawa and later went overseas with an RCAF Lancaster bomber unit. He held the rank of Flying Officer. Jack Padgett of Claremont and now a resident of Markham served in the same group. Ted is married and has one son, Teddy Jr. His wife is also a skating enthusiast and previously belonged to a figure skating club in Leaside. He is a traveller for a Bradshaw and Son, manufacturers and distributors of dry goods. COMMUNITY LEAGUE HOCKEY A RISKY BUSINESS
A good deal of promotion and publicity is being devoted to the organization of a Trolley League when another hockey season rolls around. Markham, Sutton, Woodbridge, Bradford and Newmarket appear interested in such a setup. As far as Stouffville is concerned, to replace Sr.’B’ hockey with a community league, trolley league etc. sounds like risky business. One can understand why such an organization would be welcomed in towns like Markham and Newmarket. The ORHA has not proved to he a crowd-drawer in Markham and in Newmarket, the canaltown citizens appeared soured on the OHA for their harsh treatment of the Spits during the current season. This season a torrid seven team community league group was formed in the Uxbridge-Port Perry League and the clubs involved will be fortunate if they regain their entry fee. There was a day when such leagues would pack local arenas but it seems that times have changed. Two years ago a similar group was formed in Stouffville which included Brougham, Peaches, Port Perry, Greenbank and at that time there were many who predicted that such a league would outdraw the Clippers. The result was that the players were forced to pay money out of their own pockets in order to buy the ice time. Any outlaw league not connected with the OHA is treading on dangerous ground in your reporter’s opinion. Certainly I have always been in favour of giving home-brew hockey players an opportunity of playing the game but there are not enough high calibre players in Stouffville at the present time to warrant a crowd-pleasing performance. Stouffville has come to respect the ability of OHA Sr.‘B’ puck artists and for this town to drop back into bush league hockey would be a letdown for the fans who two years ago followed through a Sr. championship. Stouffville and its $75,000 arena cannot afford to risk a season without this type of hockey. It’s true so far this season the crowds at Clipper games have been below average, but increased attendance is expected now that the Stouffville club is in the playoffs. Other towns such as Markham, Sutton, Newmarket etc. must remember that al though there are actually not many Stouffville resident players on the Clipper roster, the majority of names in the lineup have been connected with hockey in this district for a number of years and are familiar figures in town both in summer and winter. Stouffville Clippers today are in the same situation as the Markham Millionaires were a few years ago. The residents follow a club year after year and they are the focal point of interest from one season to another but should there ever come a break and the team fold up then hockey interest is walking on thin ice and may suffer a setback from which it may never recover. Sr.’B’ hockey is Stouffville’s hockey, we cant let it slip through our fingers. CLIPPERS WIN SEMI-FINAL SERIES FROM FLYERS
Stouffville Clippers earned the right to enter the Sr.’B’ group finals on Saturday night as they swamped the Ravina Flyers 7-2. They will meet Leaside in a best four-out-of-seven series for the Metropolitan title. The second and third games will be played in Stouffville on Wednesday and Saturday of this week.
The Stouffville crew poured to the attack in the opening minutes and piled up a comfortable lead, Rhodes in the Clipper net had a comparatively easy night as his defence and back-checking forwards gave him good protection. In the final ten minutes of the contest, Stouffville ran into a flood of penalties and the balance of the game was played with one or two men in the cooler. McNeil, hardworking Clipper centre star turned in a sensational penalty killing performance as he forechecked the Flyers to a to a standstill. CLIPPERS DEFEAT LEASIDE IN GROUP FINAL OPENER
Stouffville Clippers took a one game lead in their best-of-seven Metro group finals on Monday night as they handed Leaside a 5-3 setback. The Clippers jumped into the drivers seat at 16:15 of the first period as Ronnie Bell blinked the light from Stephenson and Melville. Elwood Small made it 2-0 twenty three seconds later on a pass from defenceman Bert Baker. Jim Casburn and Gordie Boniface each connected with singles midway through the period to put both clubs on even terms. Leaside took a one goal lead at the nine minute mark of the second frame with Kenny Sinclair beating Eatough unassisted. For the remainder of the contest it was all Stouffville in the scoring department. Elwood Small added his second tally to deadlock the score at 10.20 and hardworking centre Kenny McNeil scored a few seconds later from Lewis to put the Clippers in the lead to stay. Hal Gibson picked up his fifth scoring point in two games for the only goal of the final period. RANGERS LEAD IN PEEWEE NHL
The New York Rangers coached by Bill Lennox moved out front in the Lions Peewee round robin playoffs as they edged Canadiens 4-3 on Saturday afternoon. Ron Stewart, second line speedster, turned in a spectacular performance. He scored one goal and assisted on another. Don Neal, Wayne Pennanen and Dean Evans were the other New York marksmen. Don Tran, Bob Todd and Mike Epworth scored for the Canadiens in the dying seconds of the game. Holden in the Montreal cage was taken off in favor of an extra forward and although the Canadiens had numerous chances to tie up the contest, they failed to put the puck past Abraham in the Ranger net.
In the other games the Leafs and Hawks battled to a 1-1 draw while the Bruins tied the powerful Red Wings 3-3. Norm Hendricks counted the lone Leaf tally while Gary Taylor scored for the Hawks. The Detroit scores were divided between Don Haynes, Don McCullough and Malcolm. Next Saturday the Wings will play New York in the opener while the Leafs and Bruins battle in the second game. SHAMROCKS ORGANIZE FOR ANOTHER SEASON
Stouffville Shamrocks softball club reorganized for another season on Monday night. While the club presently holds a franchise in the Markham Township League, it is expected that a representative will go to the Whitby League meeting to ascertain if Stouffville would be allowed in that group should it ever be desirous to change. Heading this years club is W.S. Milliard as president and Harold Dixon, past president. Other officers are: vice pres., J. Murray and Ward Edwards, sec’y-treas. The following were appointed to other club posts: publicity, Jerry Hooker; equipment J. Murray Jr.; manager, Ted Edward; assist. Bill Nichols; Coach, Earl Hoover assist. J. Murray.

1954 WORLD ICE HOCKEY CHAMPIONSHIPS
CCCP – Soviet Union vs. Canada in the 1954 World Ice Hockey Championships in Stockholm, Sweden. Soviet Union sensationally defeated Canada 7–2 in the final and won the gold in its first championship ever. The 21st Ice Hockey World Championships and 32nd European ice hockey championships were held from 26 February to 7 March 1954 in Stockholm, Sweden. Every club played each other once with the top three finishers receiving medals at the end. The USSR won in its first attempt, led by Vsevolod Bobrov who was recognized as the best forward of the tournament in the first ever presentation of Directorate Awards. The USSR won their first five games before meeting up with the host, and defending champion, Sweden. Sweden, having already lost eight to nothing to Canada, desperately needed to beat the Soviets, but settled for a one all tie. The final game of the tournament pitted the East York Lyndhursts, representing Canada, against the USSR, both teams being undefeated. Tournament organizers believed the Canadians would cruise to their seventh straight win and had begun to sell tickets for a planned tie-breaking game between the Soviets and Swedes to determine the European Championship. However the Soviets “appeared to pass too much, check too little, and skate too fast” and “thoroughly dominated” in a 7–2 win before 16,000 fans. WINGS TOPPLE RANGERS IN PEEWEE NHL
Don Haynes’ Detroit Red Wings knocked the highflying New York Rangers out of first place in the Lion’s NHL round-robin playoff series on Saturday afternoon with a 2-1 victory. Malcolm, first line forward with the powerful Detroit squad counted his club’s only goals. Don Neal notched the lone tally for Rangers. The New York loss coupled with a win for the Wings and Leafs dropped Rangers into third place tied with Hawks. Boston and Montreal are deadlocked in the cellar position.
In the second game the Leafs ran wild in the final minutes with Boston and trounced the Bruins by the score of 6-3. Wideman and Jackson paced the winners attack with two goals each. Hendricks and Beasley were the other Leaf marksmen. Kennedy, Malcolm and Redshaw were the goal scorers for Boston. Both teams failed to score on numerous wide-open chances as many of their shots were wide of the mark. With the score dead locked at 3-3, Wayne Redshaw and Ron Hedges sailed in on Grensted in the Leaf net but a close-in drive bounced off the backboards. A few minutes later both players cut in over the Toronto blueline with only one man back but once again a grad shot missed the net. Wideman made it 4-3 and Norm Hendricks sewed the contest up for the Leafs with a quick shot from six feet out.
In the final game, the Canadians and Hawks battled to a 2-2 tie,

LOCAL CONTESTANTS IN BIRDIE TOURNEY
Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Hastings, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Pearce and Ward Edwards from here competed on Saturday in the Badminton Tournament at Aurora. Mrs. Hastings was paired up with Florence Callahan of Newmarket and this duet won four matches and lost two failing to make the finals by only one match. Mr. Pearce teamed up with quite a remarkable player Col Gzowski, 72 years old and as agile as one with half his years. The pair won six matches and lost only one. They were defeated in the finals by the Willowdale team. Badminton which flourished for a time in the local Legion Hall is expected to be revived again when the new gymnasium is opened in the new high school this fall. CLIPPERS MEET LYNDHURST, BEST OF FIVE SERIES
Lyndhurst Motors, runners up in the World Hockey Tournament, will be the next obstacle for the Clippers on the road to the Sr. B title. The series has been cut to a best of five games with the opener here on Wednesday night. The second contest is scheduled for the East York Arena on Friday night with the third back in Stouffville on Saturday. Moe Galand, high scoring rightwinger on Gregg Currie’s no 1 line is expected to be in the lineup for the series. Galand usually heads south about this time every season to join in spring training for the coming baseball season. SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas CLIPPERS SECOND GROUP CHAMPIONSHIP
The Stouffvllle victory over Leaside on Friday night marked the second time in the history of the club that Bob Bangay’s boys have walked off with the group honours. In the season of 1951-52 the Clippers captured the group silverware then went on to win the All-Ontario Sr. Championship. The players who starred on that club were Blake Eatough, Norm Stunden, Jim Machln, Morley Petch, Bert Baker, Herb Rose, Hal Gibson, Bud Watson, Geo. Stark, Polly Minton, Jack Watson, Bob Bangay, Jack Rumney, Ronnie Bell, Frank Stephenson and Nick Bangay. Two group winners in four years is a good average for any team. WE CAN BEAT LYNDHURSTS — CAP’T. HAL GIBSON
Following the Clippers 8-5 victory over Leaside on Friday night, Captain Hal Gibson predicted that Stouffvllle can defeat Lyndhurst Motors in the forthcoming best-of-flve- playoff set. The veteran winger added however that “our club will have to play hockey to do it”. Lyndhurst Motors will skate into the contest on Wednesday night fresh from a weeks rest following their arrival in Toronto on Tuesday. Stouffvllle will be at full strength for the crucial contests. Much of the Clippers success rests on the shoulders of their No. 1 threesome of Nick Bangay, George Stark and Chuck Webster, while Gregg Currie will be placing his hopes on his ace trio of Earl Clements, Moe Galand and Norm Gray. SISTERS SECURE SR. SILVERWARE
Something new in the annals of sports presentations took place at the Stouffville High School commencement on Friday night. The Smith sisters, Pat and Marg, were presented with the Stiver Bros. trophy emblematic of the senior girls championship. Mr Mervin Watts made the presentation. When the final points were totalled, Pat and Marg smith were tied for the top honours. June Smith, another senior competitor, was close behind. Don Haynes was Jr. boy champion; Jane Cook Jr. girls; Graham Frisby, Int. boys; Marjorie Sproxton iInt. girls; Arnold Lintner, Sr. boys and Pat and Marg Smith Sr.girls. The Stouffville High School Rugby Champs were introduced along with their coach and manager Mr. Mercer and Mr. Marshall.

by Jim Thomas STOUFFVILLE’S FIRST “YOUNG CANADA NIGHT”
On Friday night of this week the Stouffville Lions Club working in conjunction with the local arena will sponsor a “Young Canada Night”. The feature attraction of the evening will be three peewee hockey games. The contests will commence at 7 p.m. The Stouffville Youth for Christ band will be in attendance. The nights activities will conclude the Lions League hockey for the season. The Jim Austin Trophy will be presented to the championship club. This will be the first attraction of its kind here and it is being planned as an annual event. Tickets are now on sale and may be purchased from any member of the peewee hockey teams. Admission price is 25c. Some of the players who will be in action on Friday night are Doug Grensted, Bob Hoover, Jim Malloy, Mike Epworth, Glen Pennanen, Roy Lewis, Wayne Redshaw, Eddie Sanders, Ron Stewart, Warren Hendricks, Gary Taylor, Barry Wilkes, Larry McMullen and Don Haynes. THERE’S ROOM HERE FOR A COMMUNITY LEAGUE
There’s room here in Stouffville for a community softball league. Such a setup comprising four or six teams could be worked in now that the floodlights are available at Claremont. A well organized softball league was formed following the installation of their floodlight system and it has continued to operate on a paying basis. If a similar group was formed here in Stouffville the winner of this group could meet the winner of the Claremont group for the community championship. Such a playoff would no doubt attract considerable interest. Claremont has already decided on the entries for the coming season but we believe there are enough ball players left over to form at least four teams. Such places as Goodwood, Peaches, Lemonville, Dicksons Hill, Gormley or Bethesda should be able to pull a ball team together. The diamond is in good shape. WHAT HAPPENED TO LYNDHURST?
That’s the question still in the minds of many Stouffville and district hockey fans who saw the local Clippers oust Gregg Currie’s Toronto Lyndhursts in three straight games. Were the East York players out of condition after their European trip? Were they discouraged by adverse publicity? Was their lack of player strength caused through injuries incurred during the World Tourney. Gregg Currie and the players themselves can answer. During the regular schedule, Stouffville and Lyndhurst motors tangled four times and the East York crew took three of the four contests and yet when the two teams met in the playoffs they didn’t appear to be in the same class as Stouffville. Perhaps the entire reason for the Clippers success did not lie in Lyndhursts weakness but in the Clippers power. In the opening game of the series the Stouffville forwards checked the Toronto crew off their feet and didn’t give them a chance to get organized. They skated with a will to win and never stopped till the final whistle sounded on Saturday night. If a poll had been taken before the series commenced t believe without a doubt that seven out of ten fans would have picked Lyndhursts as favourites over Stouffville. Perhaps the Clippers themselves felt they were the underdogs and as so often happens they put every effort into pulling an upset which they did in a decisive fashion. The Stouffville squad not only forechecked Lyndhursts into the ice but they rocked their best players with punishing body checks that took much of the fire out of their offensive. Moe Galand one of the topSr B stars in the game today was a marked man and his every move was kept under close observation at all times. The Lyndhurst netminder Gabby Lindsay considered by many to be the weak link in the team’s chain turned in a good performance in every game and certainly could not be blamed for the clubs defeat. This marks the second time that Stouffville and Lyndhurst motors have locked horns in playoff competition. On the previous occasion, the Clippers downed the East Yorkers and went on to capture the Sr.B championship. Let us hope that history will repeat itself. LOCAL PROV. POLICE ENTHUSIASTICS SPORTMEN
Stouffville’s two provincial police officers, Constable W.S. “Casey” Hilliard and Constable Jan VanDerKool have been residents in town for less than one year but in that space of time they have shown themselves to be enthusiastic sportsmen. Constable Hilliard has always taken an active part in sports since he first donned a pair of skates at the age of eight years. He played hockey at Midland and worked himself up through the bantam, midget and juvenile ranks. The teams were sponsored jointly by the Midland Kiwanis Club and the YMCA. He later played with Penetang Juniors under coach Bill Hancock. He had the misfortune to break a leg which held him out of competition for some time. Following his recovery he played in the Collingwood Industrial League. In 1951 Constable Hilliard was influential in forming the Provincial Police hockey team at Whitby and the squad has spent the past four winters playing exhibition contests around the immediate district.
Only recently “Casey” took on the coaching duties of the Chicago Black Hawks in the Lions Peewee NHL and has been doing a fine job with the young lads. Last season he was named publicity manager of the newly formed Stouffville Shamrocks softball team and this year he was appointed president. He was an ardent softball and rugby player in his high school days.
Constable Jan VanDerKool is one of the Clippers most enthusiastic fans. When off duty he attends the majority of home and away contests. He played his first hockey as a midget at London, Ont. and thought nothing of walking five miles to the arena in order to join the rest of the boys in a game. While in the Canadian army he played baseball with his unit in both England and Italy. When he returned following the war he played hockey for a time in St. Thomas. Constable VanDerKool has always been a hockey enthusiast and while stationed in Newmarket he followed the Spitfires whenever he could spare the time. By being interested in clean sport the local Provincial Police Officers are able to pass on their knowledge to the young lads in town who enjoy both watching and playing the game. CLIPPERS OUST LYNDHURST IN THREE STRAIGHT GAMES
It took centre thirty two seconds to tie score in the second period from Geo Stark and Hal Gibson stark took Gibson’s pass at the blueline and although Lindsay stopped the first drive Webster picked up the rebound and fired it into the open net at 1251 defenceman Bert Baker made it 21 as he blinked the light from McIntosh arid Stephenson sayliss of lyndhursts was off at the time a minute later with lyndhursts still a man short chick Webster let go a long blueline drive that caught the corner before Lindsay had a chance to cover the Toronto Lyndhursts made a valiant effort to pull the contest out of the fire in the last period but they fell one goal short of pulling up on even terms in regulation time at 440 Elwood small notched what proved to be the winner from McNeil and Lewis on a three-way picture play Geo Sayliss made it 42 at 10.27 from couch and at 1s37 Moe Galand put Lyndhursts within one goal of a tie. With McIntosh of the Clippers serving a penalty, Coach Gregg Currie yanked Lindsay out of the net in favor of an extra forward and although the Toronto crew stormed around the net. CLIPPERS AGAINST OSHAWA TRUCKERS
The Stouffville Clippers will meet their arch rivals the Oshawa Truckmen on Wednesday night of this week in the local arena. The series is a best four-out-of-seven and the winner will meet either Simcoe or Woodstock. The second game is scheduled for Kingston on Saturday night. The third in Stouffville on Monday. The fourth in Kingston on Wednesday and the fifth back in Stouffville the following Saturday. Oshawa are playing all their home games in the Kingston arena. The truckmen’s line up is comparatively the same as last season with such stars as Geo. Samolenko, Jerry Scott Frank Hooper, Jack Thaler, Ernie Dickens and Don McBeth still with the club. Wally Samanski, well-known for both hockey and softball ability has been added to the squad. Les Colvin will guard the twine for the motor city crew. HAWKS PAY $20,000 FOR HASSARD
Bob Hassard, centre with the Toronto Maple Leafs and later with the Pittsburgh Hornets in the AHL, has been sold to the Chicago Black Hawks for a price quoted at over $20,000. Bill Toby, general manager of the Hawks has embarked on a rebuilding campaign in an effort to move his club out of the NHL cellar next season. Bob returned to Stouffville on Sunday and will no doubt be rounding up the local baseball club for spring training within a few days. PEEWEE CHAMPS TO RECEIVE TROPHY FRIDAY NIGHT
The Jim Austin trophy will be presented to the winner of the Stouffville Lions Peewee Championship at Young Canada night to be held in the local arena on Friday, commencing at 7 pm. At the present time three clubs are in the running for the award the Detroit red wings- coached by Don Haynes are in the top spot with seven points while the New York Rangers coached by Bill Lennox and the Boston Bruins handled by John Davis are tied in second place.
Last Saturday afternoon the Red Wings jumped two points up on their closest rivals as they downed the Maple Leafs 6-4. Bob Lehman was top marksman for the Wings with two goals. Don Haynes, Bill Hoover, Don McCullough and Larry Malloy notched singles for the Leafs. Bob Hoover scored twice with Gary Coppins and Johnson beating the Montreal Canadiens 4-1. Wayne Redshaw was the big cog in the Boston machine scoring all four of the Bruin goals. Don Tran spoiled a shut out effort for goalie Bud Thomas as he slipped a low drive into the cage after completing an end to end rush. Despite the loss goaltender Murray Holden turned in an outstanding performance in the Montreal cage.
In the other contest, Constable Hilliard’s Chicago Black hawks tied their third straight game as they battled the New York Rangers to a 2-2 tie. Gord Eckardt and carter were the Hawk marksmen while Mike Mcstravick fired the Ranger goals. HOT SHOTS WIN TROPHY
The Ladies’ League
The hot shots captained by Pat Lehman bowled their way to the Ladies’ League
Championship last week with a total of 5112 points. They will receive the Tim O’Neill Trophy. Kay Haslam’s Strays were second best with 4603 points followed by Mrs. Ken Laushway’s Lassies with 4544 . Players on the champion team are Pat Lehman, Mrs. Jackie Sumner, Mrs. Merle Mathewson, Mrs. Gladys Ford, Mrs. Marian Castle, Mrs. Margaret Wagg and Mrs. Aurelia Smith.

Lions League
A neck and neck battle is developing for the number one position in the Lions Bowling League. At the present time the Pink Pills captained by Mr. Geo Pearce are out front with 49 points while Bill Ford’s V8’s are right on his tail with 48.

Plans are already made by interested members of the Stouffville Lions Club to send a peewee hockey team to Goderich next year to compete in the All-Ontario Tournament. The only expense involved would be the transportation of the players from Stouffville to Goderich. The boys are billeted out to private homes around the town. Stouffville would be classed according to population. The tournament is run off in the Easter holidays and the players would be away not longer than four days according to the success of the team. An entry fee must be forwarded to the convener but this amount is refunded when he club arrives. Such a venture would a fine experience for the young lads. The entire tourney is arranged by the Goderich Lions Club. RHODES, BANGAY, CLIPPERS MOST VALUABLE PLAYERS
Jack ‘Dusty” Rhodes and Nick Bangay were selected as Stouffville’s most valuable hockey players. A ballot vote was taken at a meeting of the club at the home of Ronnie Bell on Saturday night. Both Rhodes and Bangay were tied for the honours and a flip of a coin awarded the Maple Leaf Dairy Trophy to Nick Bangay. Rhodes captured the silverware three years ago. Both players were well deserving of the award. Bangay one of the most likeable competitors on the Clipper Club had one of his best seasons since the donning the Stouffville colours in spite of a serious head injury that put him out of action for two months midway through the regular schedule. Despite this setback the hard-driving speedster was the only player on the club to hit the thirty goal bracket. Although Bangay plays best up on the forward line he was also used for defence where goals are not so plentiful.
Jack Rhodes was welcomed this season as a valuable sub goaltender and he turned in a fine performance against the powerful Oshawa Truckmen. His cool steady play coupled with a good dressing-room sense of humour has made him a favourite with both fans and players. GIRLS HERE IN P.W.S.U.
The Stouffville Girls Softball Team have been entered in the Provincial Woman’s Softball Union and have been accepted according to a letter received recently by Jerry Hooker from the League Secretary at Whitby. The local team will be entered in Intermediate “B” class ball. Stouffville will be able to draw players from any centre in the district providing the population is not more than 6,500. If a player is used from a centre with a population greater than the required figure than it would be necessary for Stouffville to move up to a higher series. All player certificates must be in by July 20th and it is expected that the local team will enter the playoff contest any time after that date. TENNIS NEWS
Arrival of warm weather the tennis fans are taking their rackets out of storage fanning the air with practice swings and bouncing last years balls dismayed by the loss of bounce due to lack of use. Yes, tennis time is here again. But first things come first. A tennis club must be organized to afford smooth and fair handling of club properties and the courts. The courts came through the winter well, and following a recent cleanup by the park caretaker, are in beautiful condition. An organization meeting has been called for Monday, May 3rd in Municipal Hall. The senior members are asked to make a special effort to be present. In past years a large number of juniors have turned out but there has been a sad lack of senior members at these meetings. The juniors are welcome — and wanted. However to have a strong club more interest must be shown by the seniors — to lead the way and give their advice if nothing else. These courts have been improved from tome to time by the Community Centre Board and the local Lions Club until they now rival many Toronto courts, so let’s show our appreciation by showing an interest.
The radio which was purchased from Raxlin Furniture and which the club sold tickets on to help towards the lighting of the courts was drawn recently. The winer was Mrs. J.A. Davis of Stouffville. V8’S TOP BOWLERS
Bill Ford’s V8’s were the top bowlers at the end of the regular schedule in the Stouffville Lions Bowling League. They edged Geo, Pearce’s Pink Pills by a narrow margin in a neck and neck race. Besides their captain other members the team were Gladys Ford, Albert Smalley, Joanne Small, Fred Cummings, Eva Cummings, Erle Lehman and Helen Dickinson. The teams are now in playoff series for the Championship. Len Wilkes Stuffed Shirts are out front completing the first round. The winner will he de on Thursday night of this week.
In the “Bowler of the Year” tournament, Walt Smith is making a strong bid to retain the title he won last year as rolled a 664 triple in the opening nights competition. Ward Edwards took the high honours with a 244 score.

Ted Kennedy, captain of the Toronto Maple Leafs was the centre of attention on Monday night at the Stouffville Lions Club’s annual Sports Night. Ted recalled how he received his start in hockey as a member of the Port Colborne minor league teams which were operated by the Lions Club of that town. It was while playing with the Port Colborne midgets that he met a member of the Stouffville Clipper club, Jerry Junkin, who was playing with Lindsay at the time. Ted spoke highly of Stouffville’s Bob Hassard’s stating that while Bob was taking his regular turn he was the best hockey player on the ice. “Chicago’s gain is Toronto’s loss,” said Ted. He also paid tribute to trainer Tim Daly stating that while there would he other Kennedy’s and other Hassard’s there would never be another man to replace Tim Daly. In directing his remarks to the members of the Peewee champion Detroit Red Wings, Ted pointed out that playing in the National Hockey League was not the important thing, but for young boys to get out on the ice and play was what really counted. Ted stated that the game of hockey developed four main characteristics in growing boys. It produces cooperation team work, respect for one’s opponent and good physical development. To eat well, play hard and get plenty of rest all tends to produce a topnotch athlete. Mr. Kennedy seriously stressed the need for boys to attend Sunday School and Church. Ted admitted that Sunday hockey had interfered with his church attendance, but recalled during his youth how he would he found in Sunday School and Church every Sunday. “Such a foundation has helped me considerably during my hockey career.” said Ted.

In the softball department the Stouffville Shamrock will be basing their playoff hopes on hurlers Jerry Hooker and Jack Sumner. Markham Aces will depend on pint-sizedPeg O’Neill for regular mound duty with Bob Petch back of the plate. Unionville have their regular hurler Cliff Cox back in the lineup again this season and are working on Bert Beckett for relief duty. Chick Webster, a regular with the Stouffville Clippers during the hockey season will hold down the short stop position with Ernie Lamaseries’ club. Bill Hood will likely use Jack Rumney as Buttonville’s regular pitcher with Bert Baker or Jack Watson behind the plate. Baker may also throw a few games for the 4th. Concession squad. Red Fleming Agincourt’s midget moundsman is likely to take care of his team’s hurling chore while Bill Bower, Thornhill’s sensational curveball artist is expected to be back in action again this season. Aurora will be using the ex-Buttonville southpaw Norm Stunden as the main-stay of their pitching staff.
In the baseball department the Stouffville Red Sox have held two or three practice sessions and the team appears to be rapidly rounding into condition. However according to the Manager Ted Cadieux, there are still openings for any interested players with a trace of baseball ability. At the present time pitching staff comprises one lone hurler, Lorne Schell. Coach Bob Hassard will probably handle the catching chores with Ken Schell taking over his familiar position on first base. Bud Lehman at 2nd, Allan Edgar on 3rd, and Les Clarke at short takes care of the infield positions. In the outfield there a number of possible players who could ably cover this territory. Ted Cadieux Lloyd Jennings, Walt Smith, Polly Minton and a number of others will probably catch the club too much trouble. Allan Edgar is the only new recruit by the Red Sox at the present time. He is employed at Unionville. An effort was made to obtain a former Red Sox and third sacker Bill Nigh of Victoria Square but his business will not allow him to attend the games regularly. Mr. Bill Lennox has offered to act as plate umpire at all “away” games and base ump at the home contests. The Stouffville Girls expect to hold their first practice of season within the next week. With a few exceptions the will line up practically the same as last year. Joan Haynes will be the number one pitcher and a definite receiver has not been decided upon as yet. Peggy White, Helen Paisley, Pat Lehman, Barb Hare, Marg Barry and Carolyn Haynes are expected so line up with the club again this season.
Peaches girls group semi-finalists last season will field a team again this year. Pitcher Marj Barber and Shirley Young are expected back and Marg Smith will handle the glove behind the plate. Fern Hoover, Eleanor Reid, Edna Stickley, Marion Housser, Betty Wideman and Pat Smith will probably return to soft ball action. Gwen Kennedy last season with Agincourt will add to the clubs batting and fielding strength. Unionville girls have already held a couple of practice sessions and hope to field a strong contending team. BRING BACK THE OLD “ICING-THE-PUCK RULE”
At the annual meeting of the CAHA held at Vancouver recently a motion was put through to ask the National Hockey League under the CAHA-NHL agreement to return to the old icing-the- puck rule. Renewal would make players carry the puck over the blue line and bring back the art of stickhandling and passing. Such a ruling is a smart move on the part of the CAHA. The rule recently brought into effect allowing players to shoot the puck from centre ice then charge into the corner in an effort to clear it in front of the opposition net has not produced good hockey. No player requires many hockey brains for this type of play and injuries are more frequent. When the forwards race with one accord into the corner in a mad scramble to come up with the puck, the old type of hockey where players depended on smooth three-way passing plays and crowd- pleasing stickhandling efforts was hard to beat. Perhaps it may once more be revived. May 27 1954 SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas THE FLOODLIGHT QUESTION
There has been considerable during the past week concerning the Stouffville floodlight setup and its cost per team per night. The $15,000 lighting system in the Memorial Park was presented to Stouffville through the generosity of Mr. Art Latcham and its hardly proper for any team to complain about meeting operation costs. Many towns considerably larger than Stouffville would consider such a lighting system a mere pipe dream. Others find it necessary to canvas the district to raise the necessary funds and still contribute towards their upkeep.
The Stouffville Park Board held an emergency session on Thursday morning last week and drew up an hourly rate that each club wold be charged. Each team using the lights must $8.00 for the first hour and $2.00 for each additional hour. Breaking this sum down we find the eight dollar charge involves the following — Caretaker $2.00, Service Charge $3.00 (flat rate), power $3.00( flat rate). The Board felt that a sinking fund would have to be built up to cover future expenditures such as bulb replacements, transformer, repairs, etc.
It is true that the past few evenings have been cool and the crowd have not been large enough to cover the expenses involved but the attendance will increase as the season progresses. In the meantime it wouldn’t hurt the players too much if they had to dig into their pockets for fifty cents apiece to cover costs. They surely receive fifty cents worth of enjoyment out of playing a nine inning game under floodlights as compared with finishing a seven inning contest in the dark. CARL TIMBERS HURLS S.H.S. TO 6-5 WIN OVER MARKHAM
Not often a pitcher is expected to win his ball game, but thats exactly what happened on Wednesday afternoon of last week as Carl Timbers, hurler for Stouffville High School batted in the winning run to give the local team a 6-5 win over Markham. Don Haynes parked on third raced home with the clincher when Timbers flied deep in the final innings. It was an uphill battle for the Stouffville crew who found themselves trailing 5-1 in their final turn at bat. However the ball game was far from over as Stouffville connected for five runs. The Stouffville win deadlocked the two game series between the schools. Markham took the first contest on their home diamond 14-9. The Stouffville lineup was as follows: p, Carl Timbers; c, Don Haynes; 1st, Harry Burnett; 2nd, Don Bruce; 3rd, Bob Stover s.s., John Lehman; r.f., Mike McStravick; c.f., Allen Stouffer; l.f., Garth Good. Don Davis called the balls and strikes behind the plate. SHAMROCKS SMOTHER UNIONVILLE WITH 23 HITS
Stouffville 19, Unionville 2
Stouffville Shamrocks scored their second straight victory on Tuesday night as they soundly trounced Unionville Indians by a one-sided score of 19-2. Shamrock hurler, Jack Sumner was never in trouble throughout the game, holding the visitors to eight scattered hits with a combination of fast and drop balls. Right-hander Cliff Cox although belted for twenty-three hits had good control during the nine innings contest but received shaky support in the field. There were two home runs clouts in the game, coming off the bats of pitcher Sumner and second baseman, Dusty Schell, both of Stouffville.
Unionville scored one run in the first inning and Stouffville counted three runs in their turn at bat.
Both teams went scoreless in the second and third but the Shamrocks smashed a long home run into the deep outfield and Lawrence walked, later scoring on hits by Murray Wagg and Clare Fockler.
Jack Sumner led off with a four-bagger in the fifth and gave Stouffville a 6-1 lead and Lawrence and Mitchell each crossed the plate in the sixth for two more runs. The Shamrocks made a runaway of the contest in the final two innings scoring no less than eleven runs as eighteen batters took a turn at bat. Unionville scored their second run in the eighth.
John Lawrence , Ward Edwards, Jack Sumner, Bill Mitchell, and Jack Carnwith all connected for three hits. Owen Trunk, Don Lunau, Geo. Clarke and Cliff Cox each clippedFor two safeties. Each club committed one error.

According to Mr. Arthur Latcham work is to commence immediately on additional floodlight fixtures for Stouffville Memorial Park. At the present time Stouffville has a fifty two light system. Twenty eight more lights are to be added bringing the total up to eighty. Construction is to begin on a new backdrop which has been sorely needed here for some time. This backstop one of the most modern will be divided off in three sections, one for the batter, catcher and umpire; one for the visiting club and one for the home team. New bleachers are to be built on the north side. These additions are being provided through the generosity of Mr. Latcham. TRI-COUNTY GROUPING THE BEST YET
Although the game between Stouffville and Sutton didn’t provide the fans with anything sensational it out be remembered that there are plenty of kinks to be ironed out during the early stages of the season. From the standpoint of grouping, it would appear that Stouffville baseball fan will be watching some of the best ball they have seen here in years. The Red Sox are holding fast their 1953 squad which captured the Tri-County league Championship, with one exception, the signing of Allen Edgar, to the second base position. Sutton has always produced a contending club and Lindsay, Sunderland, Bobcaygeon and Port Perry should provide plenty of opposition. One Sutton baseball enthusiast has gone out on the limb and picked Lindsay to capture the honours now held by our own Stouffville team. Only time wilt tell the tale. SOX TRIM SUTTON IN TRI-COUNTY OPENER
Stouffville Red Sox scored an 11-3 victory over Sutton behind a nifty six hit pitching effort by right-hander Lorne Schell on Monday evening. It marked the opening of Th. Tri-County League schedule.
Geo. Holborne on the mound for Sutton ran into control trouble in first inning and gave up four walks. Three errors in the second inning added to Sutton’s grief as Stouffville piled up a convincing 6-0 lead. The Red Sox added one the fourth and four in the seventh. The visitors counted single runs in the first, fourth, and seventh. Skip Taylor, the first batter to face Schell was a strike out victim but John Learoyd and Holbome connected with safeties with Learoyd coming to score. Alien Edgar, Bud Lehman and Les Clarke, the top three men on the Stouffville batting order each received free tick- to first base and loaded the sacks, Ken Schell was clipped by a pitched ball to force the tying run across the plate. Lorne Schell singled driving in Lehman and Clark and Bob Hassard smashed a high drive into the waiting glove of left fielder Skip Taylor with Ken Schell romping home after the catch. Ted Cadieux was called out on strikes, Derek Chadwick walked and Lloyd Jennings was a victim of three breaking curve balls to retire the side.
Sutton went down in order in the second inning with Weir and Hopkins striking out and Pollock grounding out pitcher to first.
Neither club counted a run the third but each added one in the fourth. Three errors, a walk and two hits allowed Stouffville to count 4 additional runs. Edgar, Lehman, Hassard and Jennings completed the scoring for the game.
Aside from displays of wildness in the first inning, George Colbourne, the Sutton hurler allowed Stouffville but four hits. He was given poor support as there were seven errors behind him. NORM STUNDEN HURLS AURORA CLUB TO 9-2 WIN OVER LOCAL SHAMROCKS
Norm Stunden, former Buttonville southpaw hurler, and now starring on the mound for Aurora, allowed Stouffville batters but eight hits on Thursday night as the Yonge Street crew overpowered the Shamrocks to the tune of 9-2 . Stunden famous for his back-breaking slow balls was never in trouble except in the seventh inning when two hits, a walk and an error allowed the local squad to count their only runs.
Jack Sumner went the distance for Stouffville and was nicked for fourteen hits. Due to a lack of players three new recruits were sent in as replacements. Don Jackson, Mike McStravick and Bruce Fockler played well in their first tryout in the Markham League. Both McStravick and Fockler scored hits off Stunden. Gord Forgie turned in a good game at third base and Clare Fockler was shifted to the receiving position back of the plate. Johnny Lawrenson held down short stop and Ward Edwards took a turn at first base.
Neither club counted a run until the third inning when Aurora clubbed out two hits and a Shamrock infield error allowed two runs to score. Brown and Stunden rounded the sacks in the fourth and McDonald smashed out a four-bagger with nobody on to give the visitors a 5-0 lead. Aurora added another in the seventh as McDonald tripled and Dawson singled scoring the front runner. The Shamrocks came through with their only two runs in the bottom half of the seventh. Murray Wagg and Bruce Fockler both grounded out but McStravick reached first on an error. Clare Fockler and Johnny Lawrence hit safely to score two, tallied three more in their half of the ninth to complete the scoring. Clare Fockler was the top Stouffville batter with four hits in five trips but he was left standing on base on every occasion. Aurora added another in the fifth. LADIES SOFTBALL OPENS JUNE 1ST

Coach Bob Hassard of the Stouffville Red Sox twirled a masterful six-hitter on Wednesday evening of last week, as the local squad scored a 6-2 triumph over Sutton. Sutton scored their runs in the first and fifth innings. Learoyd and Geo. Holborne rounded the sacks to count their teams only runs. The Red Sox chalked up three runs in the first and three in the second. They were held off the score sheet for the remaining five innings.

He started the ball rolling for the Red Sox in the first with Ken Shell, Bob Hassard and Ted Cadieux each banging out singles to score three runs. Murray Stewart and Derek Chadwick worked hurler Holborne for walks but they were left stranded on the base paths. Sutton scored a single run in the first inning. Learoyd singled, Holbourne walked and Keith Dunn doubled driving in the front runner.

NEW COVERED GRANDSTAND
A new covered 400-seat capacity grandstand erected in Memorial Park along the third baseline of the present ball diamond. Seating capacity of the present bleachers along first base is about 250. The new stand is part of a program of improvement being carried on in the park by Stouffville’s park benefactor Arthur Latcham. Mr. Latcham installed a set of floodlights in the park, last year second to none and twenty-eight additional lights are to be added this year to give better coverage for night hardball.
A new backstop is going up back of home plate and a new score board has already been erected in centre field. Mr. Latcham has provided the park commission with fill to eliminate the bad water pocket in left field and further drainage is planned. The huge seventy-foot poles carrying the floodlights are being painted as well. The entire program of improvements is expected to cost more than $10,000 and the community should be most appreciative of these generous undertakings which are establishing here a community park which is the envy of towns five times the size of Stouffville.
A special meeting of the Community Centre Board was held in the park on Monday morning and final arrangements made with Mr. Latcham for the new installations. It is expected that new arrangements are being made to assist with the hydro charges which the various ball teams are being asked to pay at present. K. SCHELL & CLARKE BOTH HIT HOMERS, DRUB PORT 12-2
Stouffville Red Sox scored their fourth straight victory of the young Tri-County League season when they stepped into Port Perry on Wednesday evening and whipped the Lake Scugog crew 12-2. Two smashing home run clouts, one by short stop Les Clarke with nobody on in the third inning and an other by first sacker Ken Schell in the sixth with one mate aboard aided the focal squad in their one-sided win. Bob Hassard started on the mound for the winners and worked four innings. He gave up one run on four hits and walked none. Lorne Schell came into the game in the fifth and hurled three innings. He allowed one run on one hit and gave up no free passes. Schell registered five strike outs and Hassard one. Port Perry clipped right hander Schell for but one hit, that a home run drive by relief pitcher Young in the sixth.
Allan Edgar, Stouffville’s rookie second baseman, was tossed out of the game in the third inning when he protested too strongly to the base official about an infield play. He maintained that the Port Perry runner was tagged in attempting to reach second but the umpire thought differently. Murray Stewart went in to replace Edgar.
Neither club counted a run in the first inning but Stouffville jumped into a one run lead in the second as Hassard and Cadieux completed the circuit on singles by Lloyd Jennings and Walt Smith. Griffin scored the lone Port run.
Les Clarke’s four bagger in the third put the Red Sox two runs ahead and they added seven more in a big fourth inning spree of hits, walks and errors. Twelve Stouffville batters took a turn at bat in the inning
A walk to Les Clarke in the sixth and a home run by Ken Schell scored two more runs. Ken Schell was the big gun for Stouffville with three hits in four trips. Les Clarke clouted Port Perry pitchers for a single and a home run in four official turns at bat. CARDINAL WIN SECOND STRAIGHT GAME IN N. YORK LEAGUE
The Stouffville Cardinals scored their second straight win of the season on Friday as they edged Richmond Hill in six innings. Dave Hammersley hurled a sparkling one hitter and also helped himself to a double in the second inning. The Richmond Hill second baseman Willis was the only batter to connect for a hit that coming in the first inning. The succeeding batters with the exception of two were victims of Hammersley’s pitching prowess. He gave up two walks. T. Malloy, Murray Stewart and Harold Hodgson rounded the sacks for Stouffville in the first inning and Hammersley added another in the second. Catcher Don Haynes scored what proved to be the winner in the third inning. Mayleart on the mound for the Yonge Street squad hurled good ball and allowed the local batters but three hits. He issued four walks and struck out eleven. JUVENILES MAY WITHDRAW FROM NORTH YORK GROUP
Stouffville Cardinals may pull out of the North York Juvenile League according to reports circulating this week. The management are thoroughly disgusted with the group setup. Coaches Geo. Smith and Earl Cook have banded together one of the snappiest young ball clubs in years but their chances of really going places appear to be hampered through lack of responsibility on the part of other teams and their respective management. The Cardinals boast two of the best pitchers in the circuit in Dave Hammersley and “Windy Stewart” but their lack of batting opposition and poor playing fields does not tend to improve their style. If the colourful local squad do pull out of the North York setup they intend to arrange exhibition contests with some topnotch Juvenile teams from Toronto and suburbs. SPORTS SHORTS

ARENA SHAREHOLDERS MEETING CRITICAL AT LACK OF LOCAL MUNICIPAL AID
Considerable criticism was expressed at the annual meeting of the shareholders of the Stouffville Arena on Thursday evening at the lack of municipal aid for the company which it was stated by one shareholder was “taking a real load off the taxpayers and getting no thanks for it.”
The discussion over the arena operation and its relations with the town evolved following the approval of the 1953-54 financial statement which showed operating profit for year to be down to near the $2,000 mark and a bank balance of $4.031.84. Gross turn over was down slightly. Largest income items were hockey practice $4.393; skating $2298; THL $3588; Clippers $9172; Skating Club $1580; booth $9732; floor rentals $1072. Heaviest expenses included the Clippers $8240; booth supplies $5708 hydro, water, and fuel $3418; salaries in arena and booth approximately $9000.
One shareholder brought up the subject of admission price for the senior hockey games slating that there was complaint about being too high, city arenas only charging 50c President Lehman told the gathering that the arenas with the cheaper rate drew far smaller crowds than did Stouffville so that the 50c rate would have allowed the club to barely break even. Manager O’Neill of the Clippers pointed out that in the previous year the rate had been 75c and the crowds much larger and there were no complaints when the team was playing such contenders as Orillia and Peterborough and blamed the fact that the city teams drew no interest to the fall off in attendance.
Walter Brillinger introduced the matter of municipal relationships with the arena, “the Municipalitymunicipality it not playing ball, charging the arena $375.00 for water and nearly $800. in taxes,” he said. “ The few who put the money up are carrying the arena for the good of the community, nobody’s making anything out of it and the town is penalizing us by charging over $3000 a year for services and taxes.”
Councillor Daniels, who was present said there was no surplus of water when the arena opened in September.
“The line to the arena only cost the town $900 — in twenty years the town will make over $6,000 profit on the deal,” stated Ken Laushway.
“They’re certainly not playing ball, thats sure.” added Mr. H Hisey.
“There are few towns under five thousand population who haven’t an arena today and most of them are thousands in the hole each year,” stated Mr. Button, company secretary .
If the ratepayers had to pay for the arena, they’d get no revenue at all,” said Mr. Brillinger.
“Our hydro installation was too light in the first place. That’s what burnt the motors out, declared Mr. Lehman.
“We just get the runaround from the commission and every time there’s hydro overload its always the fault of arena,” commented Mr. Button.
“I don’t see why the council can’t do something to ease the load. Over at Port Perry that pays no taxes and no water bill; after all the arena’s hereto help the community,” said Mr. O’Neill.
Councillor Daniels interject that the council provided services such as policing which cost the public considerable.
“The police have as much right to patrol at the rink as at business places in the west end,” replied Mr. Rennie, arena manager.
Mr. Brillinger stated that he believed the discussion should be halted at this point and moved a vote of thanks to the manager and staff for the operation of the arena. The 1953 board of directors was returned to office, being as follows: Gar Lehman, Reg Button Morley Symes, George Rodanz, L.E. O’Neill, Geo. Allison, Chas. Nolan. SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas NEW RULE NOT NECESSARY
This season a new rule was injected into the softball books which allows a batter to take a base if hit by a pitched ball. The umpire of course is to use his own judgment whether the batter intentionally tried to get in the way of a ball in order to receive an easy trip to first base this has always been a practice in hardball but there are not too many batters who will intentionally get in the way of a hardball this ruling is not only tough on the pitcher but also puts the umpire on the spot when he must decide whether the batter deserves a free base or not. Mr. Art Dodge, sports reporter with the Markham Aces shares the same opinion and to prove his point he quotes the conversation between the manager of a softball club and a member of the team, a big clumsy looking player. He says, “Heres the spot I’ve been saving you for. iIt’s the last half of the ninth, the score is tied and the bases loaded with two out. Go out there and get hit by a pitched ball!” LORNE SCHELL TOSSES ONE-HITTER TO BLANK LINDSAY
Lorne Schell, Stouffville Red Sox curve ball artist, tossed spanking one-hitter on Wed. evening as the locals blanked the supposedly powerful Lindsay squad 6-0. The victory increased the Stouffville lead atop the Tri-County league group. The Red Sox have yet to be defeated so far this season.

by Jim Thomas FOUR IN ONE
On Monday night in Stouffville Memorial Park, four sporting activities were being carried on at one time. Down on the south diamond, the local girl ere playing Peaches in a Markham Twp. League contest ,over on the main diamond Stouffville Red Sox were battling Sunderland in a floodlight fixture, over on the bowling green a number of Stouffville bowling enthusiasts were enjoying another type of sport and a short distance away a thrilling wrestling bout was in progress. iIt’s been a long time since such a collection of varied sporting figures have been gathered together at one time. GIVE THEM A CHANCE
This season the Stouffville girls softball team has a completely revamped lineup. Many of last year players were not available for service this season and in an effort to field a contending club Coach Ward Edwards has brought up a host of newcomers. The majority of these girls have played ball before but not with Stouffville in the Markham Township League. To introduce some of the “rookies” we’ll go down the lineup and give you as many name as we can. Catching behind the plate is Mary Cole. On the mound is Joan Chadwick, who is also available at first base. On second base is Isobel Mccreight, at third, Joyce Byers or Pat Skinner, at short, Lynn Foord and in the field Cecile Burger. A team packed with experienced players is all well and good but sooner or later these players decide to quit or are forced to miss a game and younger substitutes must be available. If these young players are never given a chance to prove their worth and fill in as pinch-hitters or relief pitchers then in time the club will just fall to pieces. A boy or girl will never become a topnotch athlete sitting on the bench. There’s nothing like new blood to put life in a team and combine that with a few veteran team mates and Stouffville should produce a contending club. DO WE NEED A HOME RUN FENCE?
Were you at the baseball game in the Stouffville Park on Monday night? If so you probably saw three Stouffville batters robbed of home runs through the lack of a four foot fence at the bottom of the playing field. Lorne Schell, Bob Hassard and Lou Raxlin each whacked what could rightly be classed as home runs out of the park boundary. But what happened? The Sunderland outfielders simply crawled under the present wire barricade, retrieved the ball and held the local batmen to a double or at best a triple. What can he done to stop this. Nothing under the present setup but through the erection of a fence along the edge of the park this problem could be eliminated. BUTTONVILLE WALLOPS SHAMROCKS 24-4
Bill Hood’s Buttonville Sluggers unleashed a merciless attack on two Stouffville Shamrock pitchers on Thursday night to score a 24-4 win in a one-sided contest. Some long- ball drives accompanied by numerous Stouffville errors aided Buttonville in their victory. Midway through the game in an effort to rattle the Shamrock infield Manager Hood called for that famous Buttonville bunting attack which worked to perfection. Bud Watson, Polly Minton, and G. Rumney laid down some perfect bunts along the first and third base lines and beat them out easily for safe hits. Pivot man Polly Minton was the star of the game, turning in a standout performance on second base. Ray Howson a windmill hurler started on the mound for Stouffville but lacked control. Buttonville scored twelve runs off the Shamrock starter and counted an additional twelve off relief hurler Bernie Merritt. Jack Rumney went the distance for the Sluggers. Stouffville were held off the score sheet until the fourth inning when they counted two runs. Edwards and Wells rounded the sacks on a single by Carrey. Clare Fockler added one in the sixth and Bill Nichols scored another in the seventh. Nichols turned in by far the best hitting display for the locals with three safeties in five trips to the plate.
Buttonville were completely around their batting order in the first inning and counted seven runs. They added three more in the second, two in the fifth. three in the sixth, six in the seventh and three in the ninth. Stouffville were held off the by double play in the sixth inning as Catcher Bert Baker grounded to Gord Forgie at third, who flipped to Wells on second for two. The win allowed Buttonville to hold their first place margin over Markham and Agincourt, who are presently waging a torrid battle for the number two position. RED SOX SINK SUNDERLAND 13-2
A double up into the outfield elms by catcher Bob Hassard in the fifth and a triple out of the park by left fielder Lou Raxlin in the seventh drove in three runs as the Stouffville Red Sox rolled to a 13-2 win over Sunderland on Monday night. It marked the first nine inning game to be completed under the new floodlight system. A good crowd was on hand for the game and they cheered a number of sparkling plays by the home town squad with a hearty round of applause.
Lorne Schell went the distance for Stouffville giving up but five hits, walking two and retiring eleven via the strike out route. Bob Hassard completed the Red Sox battery.
Beaton started on the mound for Sunderland but was forced to give way to Lloyd Tamblyn, a former Inter-County right hander in the eighth inning.
The Stouffville Red Sox have now racked up their seventh straight victory and have beaten every team in their group at least once. Sutton will be the visitors here next Monday night. Stouffville scored runs in every inning coming through with a pair in the first adding singles in the second, fourth, fifth and sixth, three in the seventh and three more in the eighth. They collected a total of seventeen hits off the two Sunderland pitchers.
Catcher Hassard and short stop Les Clark were the most potent Stouffville batsmen, clouting three hits in five trips. Every other player on the Stouffville lineup, including the pinch-hitters tapped out at least one hit. St. John, Sunderland third sacker connected for two of the five hits dished out by righthander Schell. Thompson and Woodward each tagged a single. RED SOX TRIM BOBCAYGEON 7-1
Stouffville Red Sox scored their sixth straight victory on Wednesday evening at Bobcaygeon as they trimmed the opposition by the score of 7-1. Lorne Schell turned in another outstanding mound performance for the winners allowing but five hits, walking none and striking out twelve. Stouffville built up a 4-1 lead and added three more in the ninth to sew up the contest. Ken Schell and Lou Raxlin were the leading batters for Stouffville with three for five. No Bobcaygeon batters were to connect for more than one safety. FIVE TEAMS IN SENIOR ‘B’ HOCKEY GROUP
At a meeting of the Metro Sr. B hockey group in the East York arena on Thursday night, five teams have indicated plans to enter a club in competition again this fall. Stouffville, Newmarket, East York Lyndhurst, Lambton Wheelers and Ravina Flyers will be in action again. Leaside have dropped out but have been replaced by Newmarket. Reports have it that Gregg Currie will not handle Toronto Lyndhursts this year but is being replaced. Bob Bangay is expected back to direct the Stouffville Sr. B entry.

by Jim Thomas LES CLARKE, AN ALL-AROUND ATHLETE
When Les Clarke moved to town a few years ago, Stouffville gained one of its finest all-round athletes. He is active in almost every type of sport on the market. He excels at soccer, hockey, baseball and softball and fits in well as a booster in the town’s minor sports program.
In the past few years he has probably been more in the public eye in the hockey field where he has played both with the Stouffville Clippers and the Newmarket Spitfires. He also played one season with the Stouffville Maple Leafs in an organized Community League here.
In soccer, Les played Juvenile and Junior hockey with the Maple Leafs, a team in East Toronto and later moved up into Senior company with the Toronto Irish and the Earlscourt Legion. A number of the men who played in the Earlscourt Legion pipe band at the Legion Drumhead Service were former soccer team mates. This season Les joined the Claremont Legion soccer squad but his activities with the team have been limited through injury.
In baseball, Les is a familiar figure at short stop where has he has been a regular performer with the Stouffville Red Sox in the Tri-County League. He is also an excellent softball player but it seems there aren’t enough nights in the week to him to take an active part in the scheduled games.
Les Clarke has gained a fine reputation among local sports enthusiasts and it is hoped he will continue to contribute his ability to our sports program. What has been Toronto’s loss is Stouffville’s gain JUVENILES LEAVE NORTH YORK LEAGUE
The Stouffville Cardinals have definitely pulled out of the North York Minor baseball setup. Coaches Earl Cook and Geo. Smith feel that the team will gain more baseball knowledge by playing exhibition contests against Toronto opposition than if they continue to play in North York League. Earl Cook has spent considerable time with pitchers Hammersley and Murray Stewart and they should be able material when they up with the Red Sox next season. STAN MILLER HITS AND HURLS RED SOX TO 10-2 VICTORY
After a three years absence, Stan Miller made a colourful debut before the home town fans on Monday night as he hit and hurled the Stouffville Red Sox to a 10-6 victory over Sutton. In his first two appearances at the plate, the lanky righthander smashed two home runs out of the park. He was granted intentional walks in fourth and sixth innings went down swinging in seventh. On the mound he allowed eleven hits, walked two and struck out six.
First baseman Ken Schell delivered the fatal blow in the sixth inning. Ted Cadieux leading off for Stouffville was issued a walk and Lloyd Jennings laid down a perfect sacrifice bunt moving the frontrunner to second. Second sacker Allan Edgar drove a single through the infield and Stan Miller was given an intentional pass to load the bases. With the two out and three on and the score deadlocked 4-4, clean-up batter Schell smashed a grass-cut ground bail through the short stop’s legs into left field. An error on the throw-in allowed the hard-driving infielder score handily. The Red Sox were never in trouble follow the big four run inning. Bob Hassard and Ted Cadieux added runs in the seventh to raise the score into the double figures.
Sutton counted runs in five of the nine innings and although they had a number of additional scoring chances, they left their runners stranded on the base paths. Tom Hare, Skip Taylor, Johnny Learoyd, Weir, Degeer and Cameron counted the Sutton runs. Taylor proved to be the most dangerous batter for the visitors with three hits and a walk in six trips to the plate. John Learoyd tapped out three singles and Keith Dunn nicked Miller for two. Hammer, Sutton’s rookie righthander turned in a fine pitching performance allowing the Stouffville batsmen but seven hits. He walked seven and struck out four. BINGO TO AID MINOR BASEBALL
On Saturday night of this week a giant bingo will be staged in the Stouffville Arena. The proceeds will be used to promote minor hardball here. The winner of the grand prize will have his choice of either a swing-king chair, a Toro lawn mower, a Hoover vacuum cleaner or a number of other valuable awards. No prize will be worth less than $5.00. JOYCE BYER SLAMS 3-RUN HOMER IN LAST INNING
Pinch-hitter Joyce Byer slammed a home run into the deep outfield with two mates aboard in the final inning to give the Stouffville girls a 9-9 draw with Elgin Mills on Monday evening. The four bagger by the Stouffville second baseman climaxed a thrilling uphill battle by the local squad who found themselves trailing 9-0 at the end of four innings. Helen Lemon and Joan Haynes kept the Stouffville rally alive in the seventh and although Helen Paisley and Barb Hare were strike out victims Joyce Byer proved to be the games pay off batter with a clean-cut four base hit. Joan Chadwick started on the mound for Stouffville with Joan Haynes taking over in the fourth. Shirley Jones went the distance for Elgin Mills. The Yonge Street crew counted two runs in the first, two in the second, four in the third and added another in the fifth. They were held off the score sheet in the last three innings.
Stouffville threatened to jump into an early lead when Peggy White, Helen Paisley and Joan Haynes connected for safe hits and loaded the bases but Helen Lemon, Barb Hare and Joan Chadwick went down on strikes to leave three runners stranded.
The local squad went down in one, two, three order until the fifth inning. Pat Lehman gained a free pass to first base and Peggy Whites hit was bobbled allowing Stouffville to clear the sacks. A walk to Helen Paisley and Barb Hare and hits by Joan Haynes , Joyce Byer and Carolyn Haynes added four more runs to the Stouffville total. Three additional runs in the seventh put both clubs on even terms. GEORGE RODANZ NEW MANAGER OF CLIPPERS; TIM O’NEILL ARENA PRESIDENT
The Stouffville Clippers have new manager. He is George Rodanz, prominent local farmer and director of the Arena Co, Tim O’Neill who has guided the Clippers for the past five years has been named President of Stouffville Arena Limited.

BLAST UMPIRE IN SUTTON SQUABBLE
Umpire Bill Lennox brought down the wrath of the Sutton baseball club on his head last week when he called third baseman Bud Lehman safe at home. The incident occurred in the eighth inning with Stouffville trailing 7-5. Bud connected for a triple. In attempting to score Bud slid into the dirt and at the same time catcher Keith Dunn took the throw-in and tagged the runner on the shoulder. Umpire Bill Lennox called Lehman safe and the bitter argument was on. Johnny Learoyd, Sutton’s second baseman, usually a mild mannered type of player joined Dunn in squabble. When play was finally resumed, Stan Miller went to first on four balls and singles by Bob Hassard, Derek Chadwick and Ted Cadieux allowed Stouffville to edge their Sutton rivals the by one run, Bob Hassard romped home with what proved to be the winner.
Lorne Schell handled the hurling chores for Stouffville giving ten hits, six walks and striking out four batters. George Holborne was back on mound for Sutton and allowed eleven hits, walked six and struck out four. MYRT STALEY TO PITCH FOR LOCAL GIRLS

Joan Haynes, Joyce Byers, Barb Hare and Myrt Staley homered for the winners. SHAMROCKS TOPPLE BUTTONVILLE 13-9
Stouffville Shamrocks pulled the upset of the season on Thursday night a they top pled the powerful Buttonville sluggers in a floodlight game here. It was a torrid contest throughout the entire nine innings and tempers were stretched to the breaking point on a number of occasions.
The Shamrocks nicked Buttonville hurler Jack Rumney for nine hits in the first three innings to pile up a command ing 10-2 lead. They added single runs in the sixth seventh and eighth. The Sluggers showed signs of a rally in the late innings but they failed to pull the game out of the fire. The final score was Stouffville 13 Buttonville 9. Jack Sumner went the distance for the winners. He had excellent control and although clipped for eleven hits none were long distance drives. He issued five free tickets and struck out one. Rumney allowed twelve hits, walked eight and registered four strike-outs. Home run clouts by Harry Carrey, Jack Sumner and Bernie Merritt were big factors in the Stouffville victory.

A single by Lawrenson in the second inning and a home run drive by clean-up batter Jack Sumner added two additional runs. Merritt reached first on an error and romped home when Wells flied deep.

Bill Hood’s squad were weakened considerably when Bert Baker their hard-hitting clean up batter injured his wrist in his first turn at bat. Hal Gibson came in as pinch-hitter in the sixth replacing Bill Melville. Feelings between the two teams ran high. Wells of the Shamrocks was on two occasions involved in a profuse verbal discussion as he and G. Rumney collided heavily at third base in the fourth inning and he was tagged out on second by Hal Gibson on an at attempted steal MINOR BALL BINGO LARGELY SUPPORTED
The bingo in the arena on Saturday night in support of Minor baseball drew a bumper crowd and at some stages of the game more than three hundred were participating.

Polly Minton won lucky door prize, $25.00.

O’Neill Maple leaf Dairy, Alda Cleaners, Stouffville Nursing Home, Dr. Neil Smith, Harold Dixon, Hendricks Hardware, 0‘Boyle’s Meat Market, Stouffville Tribune. A total profit of $356.00 was raised.

The local curve ball artist has a no-hitter going into the fifth when Lindsay third baseman connected with a single.

Ken Schell Stouffville’s clean-up batter pounded out a double and a triple in four official trips to keep his batting average well over the 500 mark. Allen Edgar, Hal Gibson and Ted Cadieux lined the ball into deep centre field for two base hits.

by Jim Thomas A DIFFERENT GROUP NECESSARY
This season the Management of the Stouffville Seniors Hockey Club is again planning to enter the Clippers in the Metro League along with such clubs as Lampton Lumber Wheelers, Ki-Y Flyers, Lyndhurst Motors and Newmarket. It is high time that some new grouping arrangements re made and this action should be taken now before it is too late. Of the four opposing teams in the league, only Newmarket is a drawing card. Certainly Lampton Wheelers and Ki-Y Flyers will not be an attraction here after the dismal showing last season. It is doubtful if even Lyndhurst Motors will draw well after the poor effort in the group playoffs. As was the case last winter, these Toronto clubs as far as the local fans are concerned do not tend to stir up the same enthusiasm. If action is taken immediately it might be possible for Stouffville to enter a group with Oshawa, Orillia and Newmarket . It was learned last week that Oshawa will be playing at Whitby this winter and the team does not fancy driving the 150 mile jaunts to Kingston and Belleville if a closer grouping could be arranged. Orillia has always been a good drawing card here and the Clippers would also be a big fan attraction up there as was the case a few year ago. Rivalry between Stouffville and Newmarket has always been keen. We shouldn’t make the same mistake twice. SHOULD BE WORTH 25 CENTS
Any contest of sport that is carried on in Stouffville Memorial Park should he worth 25 cents when the hat is passed and yet you will find that many either forget their wallet or have nothing less than a twenty dollar bill or pull a shiny nickel out of the back pocket and nonchalantly drop it in. Where else could one take in an evenings entertainment for as little as twenty-five cents. In most parks an admission charge is set and you pay before you are allowed inside the gate but in Stouffville such is not the case a silver collection is taken up midway through the game and it is hoped that the returns will be sufficiently large to cover the expenses with a few dollars left over. Perhaps the average spectator does not realize that it costs a local ball team close to $30.00 per game. This includes only necessary outlay such as umpire fees, balls lights and caretaker fees. When you think that if each fan put only a nickel in the hat it would take 600 spectators to cover expenses. The next time you’re down at the park and you see the man with the outstretched hand coming your way, give what you honestly think the game is worth — at least a quarter. EASY VS WEST
In an effort to create soccer interest in Stouffville, Mr. Arthur Latcham, Stouffville’s prominent sports booster, is anxious to form two teams of Public School children. He wants to organize a team in the West end of town and another from the East end. Mr. Latcham is willing to purchase the uniforms for the boys if he receives the necessary co-operation.
Soccer here is a new venture and certainly if the enthusiasm on Saturday night is any indication on how it would go over then it would appear that Stouffville has a real soccer future. There’s nothing like community rivalry and if a four or five team group could be formed including such clubs at Claremont, Uxbridge, Mount Albert Stouffville etc., it would no doubt draw enthusiastic audiences. Just about every other type of sport has been carried on here. Why not give soccer a try? RED SOX WELL AHEAD IN TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE
Stouffville Red Sox are well out front in the six team Tri-County League group with a seven even point lead over Sutton, their closest rivals. The local squad have chalked up an amazing record of eleven victories and one loss for a total of 22 points. Sutton have seven, lost five and tied one for 15 points. Lindsay, Port Perry, Sunderland and Bobcaygeon follow in that order. Stouffville has two postponed contests, one withLindsay and one with Bobcaygeon. The following is the standing of the Tri-County League is of July 18.
Stouffville 22

Stouffville Red Sox racked up their twelfth win of the season on Monday night as they rolled to an 11-4 victory over Bobcaygeon. Two home runs, one a mighty clout by left fielder Ted Cadieux in the third and another by third baseman Bud Lehman in the eighth aided the Stouffville crew to consolidate their hold on first place. There was man on base on each occasion. Bob Kennedy connected for a four bagger in the fifth for Bobcaygeon.
Lorne Schell went the distance for the winners allowing eight hit, striking out twelve and giving up two walks. Ron Junkin on the mound for the visitors was clipped for eight hits, walked three and struck out four. Although the Bobcaygeon hurler limited the Stouffville bats to comparatively few hits work on the mound was far from exciting. The majority of his pitches were slow throws which the local preferred to pass up. Infielders committed three errors. The Red Sox came up with n airtight performance.
Derek Chadwick, Bud Lehman and Bob Hassard counted for Stouffville in the first inning while Bobcaygeon went down in one, two, three order.

Two well hit balls off the bats of Bobcaygeon sluggers re-bounded off the floodlight poles in the outfield and in each case the runners were held to two bases.
Les Clarke came up with his usual fine defensive game at short and Walt Smith pulled off a fine running catch in centre field for one of the best plays of the game. LINDSAY SNAPS WINNING STREAK

Lindsay scored runs in all but the fifth innings to walk off with the game 8-6. The Red Sox tallied a total of five runs in the first innings but were held off the score sheet until the 7th when they added a single.

Ken Schell singled, Bob Hassard singled and Derek Chadwick clouted a double. Two walks to Lloyd Jennings and Les Clarke and an error on Schell’s grounder allowed five runs to cross the plate. In Lindsay’s turn at the plate, Parker DeBois and Truax singled and Crawford doubled counting two runs. They added two more in the second and pulled up on even terms in the third. A big three run rally by Lindsay in the fourth salted the game away for the home town team. LOCAL GIRLS SPLIT WITH AGINCOURT
Although Agincourt appeared earlier in the season to be the weak team in the Markham Twp. Girls Softball League, they have suddenly shown a sharp reversal of form and have scored two decisive victories last week. They soundly trounced Elgin Mills 19-9 and on Monday night they whipped Stouffville 11-5.
On Friday night Stouffville journeyed to Agincourt for a rained out game and came out on the top end of an 18-9 score.

She also halted at a .1000 average and scored four of Agincourt’s eleven runs.

Spectators at the Shamrock-Unionville softball game played in Stouffville’s Memorial Park on Thursday night of last week witnessed just about everything one would ever see at a ball game. The tension between the two clubs reached a climax when third baseman Gord Forgie and centre fielder Geo.Clarke tangled on the base paths and both players were thumbed from the contest by the base umpire. The rumpus had not died down when plate official Len Buckland took exception to a remark made by first baseman Bill Nicholls and he too was ordered out of the game. The friction between the players continued and the umpires found it necessary to warn those responsible to cool off or they would clear the bench. Stouffville took the game by the basketball score of 23-17.
The shamrocks built up a comfortable lead in the early innings but the Indians showed signs of overtaking the homesters in the late stages of the game. Clare Fockler came through with one of the key hits of the contest, a four base drive midway through the game.

Lorne Schell started on the mound for the Red Sox with Hassard and Jennings taking over in relief. Sunderland’s big inning came in the second when they pounced on Stouffville’s pitchers for eight hits accounting for ten runs. They scored three in the first and added four more in the sixth.

Sunderland jumped into an early first inning lead on hits by Woodward Thompson, and St. John. The next three batters went down in order but no before three runs had crossed the plate.

The Stouffville Shamrocks wielded a mighty shillalah on Monday afternoon as they
soundly trounced St. Marys 19-7 in an exhibition tilt. The visitors lone hurler ran out of steam after the sixth inning and the local batsmen had a field day at his expense. Lorne Edwards, son of Shamrock Coach Ted Edwards took over on the mound for St. Marys in the eighth and completed the game.
Bernie Merritt started on the hill for Stouffville and although he lacked control the opposition couldn’t produce when they found themselves with the bases loaded on numerous occasions. Jack Sumner took over the pitching chores in the closing innings and he too lacked his usual steady control. He gave up three hits, walked four and struck out two. Shamrock pitcher Bernie Merritt came through with the key hit of the game. A grand slam home run in the seventh inning. Ward Edwards also clouted a round tripper in the eighth. CARDINALS DROP ERROR-FILLED GAME TO LEASIDE, 18-6
Even the best of clubs have their off nights. On Friday evening the Stouffville Cardinals couldn’t seem to do anything right. They muffed everything from infield grounders to pop fly balls and allowed the Leaside Lions to pile up a one-sided 18-6 score. Dave Hammersley, Stouffville’s ace southpaw who chalked up a no-hitter last week was the victim of non-support. He had to face a total of 13 hatters in less than eight complete innings and in the late stages of the contest he showed signs of tiring under the strain. Graham Frisby took over on the mound in the eighth and finished the game. Hammersley gave up ten hits, walked five, and struck out thirteen. Frisby allowed three hits, walked one and struck out two. Coach Geo. Smith was forced to make a switch in his lineup early in the game when regular catcher, Don Haynes injured his back. Harold Hodgson took over back of the plate and Watt moved to first base. The Cardinals infield looked unusually weak. In one inning alone Leaside scored five runs on one hit and three errors. Stouffville jumped into a 1-0 lead in the first inning when third baseman Ted walked and later scored following hits by Morris and Haynes. Leaside rallied in the third with two and continued to pile up the runs for an easy win. They scored five runs in the fifth, four in the sixth, and four more in the eighth. Two of their hits were 300 foot circuit clouts out of the park. A walk to Malloy again accounted for a lone Stouffville run in the fifth as Hodgson and Watt came through with safeties. Malloy and Morris added runs in the seventh with Hammersley and Frisby completing the scoring for the homesters. The entire Leaside squad played good ball. Peter Slezak on the mound for the winners allowed the local batsmen but six hits, four of these coming in the seventh and eighth innings. He walked eight and struck out eleven. Len Buckland handled the umpiring at the plate with Jack Watson care of the bases.

by Jim Thomas I RAN THE “MIRACLE MILE”
During the past few days we heard much about Britain’s Roger Bannister and his “miracle mlle” run which he completed n less than four minutes at the British Empire game at Vancouver on Saturday. Just how tough is the race? How fast could the average runner cover such a gruelling course. In order to answer these questions I decided to run the one mile distance and clock myself over the course. In order to build up some extra energy for the run I downed a strawberry milk shake and slipped a chocolate bar into my rear pocket in case I should run out of steam at the halfway mark. I then proceeded to the race track in the Markham Fairground and after scaling a half dozen fences I checked my watch to get an exact reading. The track a rough and obstacle I knew I must overcome but there were no fans in the stands and since I was alone I was able to set my own pace. I started out at a rapid clip but the pace decreased considerably as I approached the half-mile post. On the second lap my legs felt like chunks of lead and the perspiration stood out on my head but undaunted I continued on to the bitter end. At the end or the one mile jaunt I staggered over to check my watch so see it I had possibly set a new mile record. The time was 12 minutes and 32 seconds or more than three times slower than Bannister’s mark. No wonder the world was thrilled by an exhibition of speed and courage as displayed by the “miracle mile” runners. It is certainly amazing that a course could be covered in less than four minutes. If you think it’s easy, it yourself some day. ‘E‘ FOR EFFORT
The Stouffville Girls Softball team is planning an entry in the P.W.S.U. and everyone knows it’s impossible to enter a club without financial support. The first big drain on the bank account will be the purchase of new uniforms. A few weeks ago the club held a bake sale but according to reports the profits from this undertaking were not too large. On Saturday night the girls aided by a number of sports-minded gentlemen around town staged a bingo in the Stouffville Arena in an effort to raise the necessary funds. At this bingo practically every girl on the squad was on hand to help make the affair a success. One must give the local team credit for its interest and it is to be hoped that the girls win one or two rounds in the forthcoming Provincial playoffs. A BATTLING BALL CLUB
Residents of Stouffville have a baseball club of which they can well be proud. The 1954 edition of the Stouffville Red Sox is probably one of the finest team that this town has produced in many years. They take every game seriously and play just as hard against last place Bobcaygeon or second place Sutton. This season the local squad has lost only three games and is firmly entrenched in first place but the boys take each defeat as though they were battling for a playoff position. On Friday evening the homesters dropped a 4-3 decision to Lindsay in a thrill-packed contest and they took the same attitude as the Brooklin Dodgers after they were knocked out of the world series by the Yankees. Fans like to see a team that goes out on the diamond and gives everything its got and that is exactly the type of ball club we have in Stouffville. What makes the teams excellent record more unique, the entire squad comprises home brew talent. Many who have played under the Stouffville colours for a number of years as the Red Sox enter the Tri-County League playoffs every local sports enthusiast will be pulling for the home town squad to capture the second straight championship. LINDSAY SQUEEZES 9TH INNING VICTORY FROM LOCAL SQUAD
Three bits and two errors in the top half of the ninth inning spelled defeat for the Stouffville Red Sox on Friday night as Lindsay squeezed a 4-3 victory in a thrill-packed contest. A good crowd watched the home town crew build up a convincing 3-0 lead then watched it dwindle in the visitors final turn at the plate. The turning point in the game came in the fatal ninth with one out, a runner on first and the Red Sox leading 3-2. Pearson was sent in as a pinch-hitter and he lined a grass-cutter over second base. Short stop Les Clarke scooped the ball out of the dirt and fired to Ken Schell at first. The throw was low but Schell played it the first hop and believed he had the runner in plenty of time. Base ump Bill Lennox called Pearson safe and the Red Sox infield literally showered the official with protests on the call. No amount of arguing could change the umpire’s ruling however and the inning continued. Crawford and Lewis tapped out safe hits the tying and winning runs. The Red Sox had a final fling at the plate in their half of the inning and although Lorne Schell worked righthander Williams for a walk Ken Schell grounded out, third to first and Hassard and Raxlin were strike out victims.
The entire contest was a thrilling pitchers battle between Williams of Lindsay and Schell of the Red Sox. The visitors were limited to four hits while Stouffville connected for six. Schell had a no-hitter going until the sixth when he allowed one hit. Lindsay bunched three hits into the final inning to gain a one run advantage. On three occasions Stouffville batsmen failed to come through in the clutch and left the bases loaded.
Outfielder Lloyd Jennings was the only Red Sox batter to connect for two hits. Allan Edgar, Bud Lehman, Les Clarke and Bob Hassard clipped Williams for one hit apiece for seven out of the nine innings. Lorne Schell Stouffville’s drop- curve artist sent the Lindsay batters down in one, two, three order. It was a thrilling windup to a thrilling game.
K.R. Davis, local tobacconist and town tax collector caught a mammoth speckled trout recently in the small stream which enters town west of Church St. This is not the first prize specimen Mr. Davis has hauled out of local waters. Tis one was well over a foot long, an anglers dream in the speckled trout class. RED SOX DOWN PORT FINAL HOME STAND
Stouffville Red Sox completed their final home game of the current Tri-County League schedule as they downed Port Perry 11-5 here on Monday night. Righthander Lorne Schell held the visitors off the score sheet until the eighth inning when they scored two runs. They added three more in the ninth. The homesters counted one run in the first inning on hits by third baseman Bud Lehman and short stop Les Clarke. Walks to pitcher Lorne Schell, catcher Bob Hassard proved costly in the second as both players romped home on a drive by centre fielder Lloyd Jennings. Walt Smith hit into double play to retire the side. Lehman scored in the third to boost the Stouffville lead to 4-0 and Loren Schell and Bob Hassard counted two in the seventh. The Scugog crew showed signs of a rally in the eighth when a hit, two errors, and a walk produced two runs. The Red Sox roared back, however, with five runs in their half of the eighth to run the score into the double figures. Bud Lehman, Les Clarke, Lorne Schell, Bob Hassard and Lou Raxlin rounded the sacks for Stouffville. Two errors and two hits for Port Perry in the ninth accounted for Port Perry’s final three runs. Lorne Schell on the mound, allowed seven hits, three walks and struck out fourteen. McTaggert on the hill for Port Perry gave up thirteen hits, eight walks and struck out five.
Allan Edgar, Bob Hassard and Bud Lehman each connected for two hits in four official trips. Pitcher Lorne Schell worked his mound rival for five walks in five times at bat. SHAMROCKS LOSE 4-3 SAT. NIGHT
Stouffville Shamrocks played their first Saturday night game of the season last week and a good crowd saw one of the best softball games played here this season. Red Fleming started on the mound for Markham’s Aces but had to seek relief from Peg O’Neill, the visitors old reliable strikeout sensation. Markham squeezed out a 4-3 victory. Jack Sumner hurled superb ball for the homesters. Markham batters tried to rattle the infield with a volley of bunts but Sumner was off the mound like a cat to throw out runners at first. A couple costly infield errors proved to be the difference between two clubs.
Coach Ted Edwards of the Shamrocks is planning another Saturday night contest with Markham which was rained out. GIRLS BEAT AGINCOURT BY DEFAULT
The Stouffville Girls softball team picked up two easy points on Wednesday night of last week as Agincourt defaulted the final game of the schedule. The visitors arrived forty five minutes late and failed to field a full team. They borrowed one of the Stouffville pitchers and staged a practice game.

Stouffville Red Sox dropped their final game of the Tri-County League schedule to Port Perry on Thursday evening of last week 6-5. It marked only the third setback for the homesters this season.

Earl Cook ex-major league righthander and former member of the Stouffville Red Sox pitching staff returned to action on Friday night of last week as the Stouffville Cardinals battled Rumble Motors in an exhibition contest. The East York squad took the game by the close score of 9-8.
Due to a lack of player strength. Coaches Cook and Smith were forced to use a number of replacements in the lineup to fill the gaps. Derek Chadwick, Polly Minton and Bud Lehman dressed for the game. Don Haynes completed the battery behind the plate and turned in a fine performance. Cook hurled good ball but showed signs of tiring in the later stages of the contest. The homesters were without the services of some of their key players in Graham Frisby, Harold Hodgson and Murray Stewart. The Cardinals expect to enter the OBA within the next week. No definite word has been received concerning the first playoff date.

Wilson, past convenor of championship tournament for the Provincial Lawn Bowling Association. CARDINALS STOP WELLINGTON IN TWO STRAIGHT GAMES
Lefthander Dave Hammersley hurled the Stouffville Cardinals to a double victory over Wellington last week to move the homesters into the Juvenile ‘C’ finals. They will probably meet either Delhi or New Hamburg. The local squad chalked up a 10-5 win under the lights in the opener and racked up a 8-1 victory at Wellington last week. It was this team that knocked Stouffville out of the playoff running last season.
In the second game Hammersley allowed but five hits and was given airtight support by his fielders. He had a shutout going until the ninth when with two out and a runner on third he was clipped for a single which broke the goose egg. The Cardinals counted two runs in the first and added two in the second to pile up a convincing edge. Ted Malloy, Stouffville’s slugging third sacker, drove in the first run with a solid triple with Graham Frisby parked on second. Both Malloy and Hodgson connected for round trippers in the first game. Wellington used three pitchers in the two contests. Don Haynes turned in a fine performance behind the plate and Frisby starred in the out-field. LAWN BOWLING NEWS

BOB HASSARD DRIVES RED SOX TO 3-2 WIN OVER SUTTON IN LEAGUE FINALS
Bob Hassard’s big bat clipped Sutton’s ace hurler Geo. Holborne for a big single in the ninth inning and scored Ted Cadieux from third to give the Stouffville Red Sox a thrilling 3-2 victory over the Lake Simcoe squad on Monday afternoon. It was the first game in a best of five league final. Both clubs were deadlocked 2-2 going into the last inning. Cadieux Red Sox left fielder hit safely. Smith grounded out on a fielder’s choice and second sacker Allan Edgar was a strike out victim. Bud Lehman popped out to the first baseman and with two away and a runner on third Bob Hassard came through with his all-important blow. Sutton attempted to pull the contest out of the fire in their final turn at the plate but Lorne Shell mowed them down in order. He fanned pinch-hitter McNeil and Hare on strike. Bob Hassard opened the scoring for Stouffville in the fourth inning but Sutton roared back with two runs in their half of the inning to take the lead. An error, a single and a double accounted for the runs. Bud Lehman crossed the plate in the eighth to deadlock the score and the Red Sox promptly sewed up the victory in their final turn at bat. Holborne on the mound for the Green Sox hurled one of his finest games of the season as he struck out eleven, walked two and gave up only six hits. Schell was also very rough on the Sutton batsmen fanning nine, walking one, and giving up seven safeties. Holborne apparently found it difficult to pitch to the Red Sox Coach Bob Hassard as he hit the batter on three of the five times he appeared at the plate. Bud Lehman was the only Stouffville batter to get more than one hit. He had one in the fifth and another in the eighth. Allan Edgar, Bob Hassard, Ted Cadieux and Ken Schell connected for the other safe drives out of the infield. Keith Dunn was the only Sutton batter to connect for more than one off Schell. He had one in the second and another in the fourth.
Loring Doolittle, Aurora’s graduate from the U.S. pro umpire school handled the contest in fine fashion. Hardly a call was questioned throughout the entire game. WELLINGTON LODGES PROTEST AFTER JUVENILE SERIES
Wellington Juveniles have lodged a protest with the President of the OBA following their two games series with the Stouffville Cardinals. The protest will be heard at Hamilton. Coaches Geo. Smith and Earl Cook accompanied by referee Len Buckland and Jack Hammersley will represent the local squad at the meeting. Each team is required to put up $50. The Wellington Management have numerous complaints concerning ground rules, umpires, etc. Stouffville took both games in a decisive manner 10-5 and 8-1. Stouffville are presently standing by awaiting the winner between Delhi and New Hamburg. Delhi took opener 10-0.100 OSHAWA STRILA WIN HOLIDAY SOCCER TOURNEY
Oshawa Strila squeezed out a thrilling 2-1 victory over Ajax Dowtys to capture the Art Latcham trophy and $150 in prize money in a big holiday soccer tournament held in the Stouffville Park on Monday. A sudden death overtime goal after only four minutes of play gave the victory to the Motor City crew. Ajax received $125.
In the first round Oshawa Polonia downed Claremont 4-2 and Ajax Bequicks defeated Whitby 3-2. Ajax Dowtys scored a 3-1 win over Oshawa Duplate in the semi-final round. Oshawa Strila blanked Oshawa Polonia 2-0 and Ajax Dowtys downed Ajax Bequicks 3-1 In the consolation series Whitby defeated Claremont 3-1 and in the consolation finals Whitby scored a 4-2 win over Oshawa Duplate. Five hundred dollars in prize money was presented to the participants. The final contest of the evening attracted a large crowd. TROUNCE SUNDERLAND TO ENTER FINALS
Stouffville Red Sox advanced into the Tri-County league finals on Thursday night of last week as they soundly trounced Sunderland 15-2. A large crowd was on hand for the rubber game of the series. Each club had previously scored a victory on their home grounds.
Lorne Schell went the distance for the winners and allowed seven hits in the nine inning affair. Stouffville clipped three Sunderland hurlers for twelve safeties. Red Sox clean- up slugger Ken Schell came through with a key hit in the one-sided game, a single with the bases loaded. STOUFFVILLE GIRLS BOW TO EGIN MILLS IN SEMI-FINAL
On Thursday night Stouffville girls bowed out of the Markham Twp. League semi-finals as they were blanked 3-0 by Elgin Mills under the flood lights at King City. Despite the fact that the local squad were defeated in two straight games, both contests were well played and the score could have gone either way. Elgin Mills took the opener 6-4. Joan Haynes handled the hurling chores for Stouffville in both games with Shirley Jones going the distance for the Yonge Street crew. Elgin Mills will now meet the winner of the Peaches-Agincourt series which has not been completed.

by Jim Thomas QUICK TO CRITICIZE
The hula-hoop craze is as rampant in Stouffville as in any other town in North America. It appears that almost every girl is in possession of a circular plastic ring. Even some adults are becoming quite
expert at the sport. I was quite amused last week to hear that some notable gentleman has condemned the practice as being immoral. Standing atop his soap box, he charged that the sport should be halted immediately. Now it may be that this man actually believes his statements to be true. Again, it may be that he is just another publicity-seeker who wishes to see his name in front-page print. I personally think its the latter. He must have received considerable satisfaction since his ridiculous statements were given countrywide coverage. I would have filed the report on a page with Pogo. THAT ELUSIVE TROPHY
For the first time in many years, perhaps Stouffville’s baseball history, a team has marched through to the all-Ontario championship. For these boys and their enthusiastic supporters, it marked the
successful completion of an uphill victory trail. In the excitement of winning the Provincial title, it is unlikely that the players were concerned over the lack of any trophy presentation. The boys and their followers knew the meaning of the rubber game win. Any neutral Port Dover spectator might have wondered what all the excitement was about. The real thrill of winning a championship is always wrapped up in the official presentation of the much-coveted cup. It is this occasion that successfully concludes a long season of baseball activity. Where was the cup? Where was the O.B.A. Convener? No one knew and probably the majority didn’t really care. The lack of any formal presentation was however the one missing link in Stouffville’s victory chain. Such laxity on the part of the Ontario Baseball Association cannot be excused. With the majority of classes already completed or nearing completion it is very little to ask that an O.B.A.representative should be in attendance. It would appear that the association has
little or no concern for the ultimate winner. one would suggest, however, that-if a portion of their requested gate receipts were withheld then no doubt, a representative would be in contact with the Management in short order.
An O.B.A. title is just as important as an O.H.A. or O.M.H.A. Championship. Never yet have attended a hockey final without seeing at least one of the officials present. The trophy is always in the arena where the game is being played. Perhaps Coach Murray Stewart will receive the award in C.O.D.shipment this week. SEVEN BOWLER IN LADIES‘ LEAGUE BEAT 200 MARK
Seven members of the local ladies’ bowling league chalked up fine records last week. Each had high singles over the 200 mark. Another member rolled an even 200. Vi Booth topped all rivals with a 256 single. In addition, she collected a 625 triple. Runners-up in the singles bracket were Dot Bangay, 254; Ann Lehman, 247; Opal Lehman, 236; Betty Wilkins, 217; Lenore Ramer, 211; Reta Laushway, 209; and Evelyn Grove, 200; Ann Lehman rolled a 610 triple. The team standings are as follows: Dimwits, 9 pts; Spitfires, 7 pts; Hula-Hoops, 7 pts; Sputniks, 6 pts; Bloopers, 6 pts; Pickles, 5 pts; Satellites, 5 pts; Anonymous, 3 pts. GLENN JACKSON TO GUARD MIDGET GOAL
Glenn Jackson, the stalwart goal guardian with Stouffville’s Bantam finalists last winter, will handle the puck-stopping chores for the local Midget entry this season. He has worked out with the team in their two practice sessions to date. Midget class competition is not new for the agile netminder. He handled a couple of games for the Midgets last year. The Midgets will ice a strong club this winter. There will be two good forward lines and possibly another trio, graduates from last season’s Bantam team. On Thursday evening of last week, Lynn and Larry McMullen teamed up with Grant Foreman to form a fast-stepping threesome. Allan Boyd also worked on the line. Willard Peddie and Bill Ratcliff formed one defensive team. On another line, coach Bill Lennox used Keith McDowell, Roy Lewis and Rick Wedseltoft. Bob Lehman and Roger Todd performed on the rearguard. The local entry will play in the North York League. They will likely be filed in ‘C’ class if successful in winning their group. The Stouffville team will continue in Ontario playoff competition. PEEWEE LEAGUE

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas ONE OF STOUFFVILLE’S FINEST
George Stark, one of the finest hockey player ever to perform under the Clipper colours, has decided to hang up his skates. Home town fan and spectators in rival arenas will be sorry to learn of George’s decision. The flashy winger has played practically all his hockey in this district, having starred with Newmarket Markham and Stouffville. His dipsy-doodle style of play would bring the fans to their feet and utterly confuse even the most potent defensive units. He was the idle of the rabid hockey fans in Orillia and they would loudly applaud his every move. Even the most critical announcers, pressmen and coaches recognized Stark’s exceptional ability.
To add to his sparkling play, George also possessed plenty of fight should the going become rough. Opposing players learned to treat him with respect.
George had one of his best years in 1951-52 when the Clipper marched through to the Championship. He then played on right wing with Mick Bangay and Bud Watson. The threesome racked up an outstanding scoring record. Last season he also teamed up with Nick Bangay on a line centred by Chick Webster. Although a left hand shot, George proved to be a standout at right wing. His back hand drives seemed almost impossible for the average goaltender to handle. Even ex-pro Eddie Rafferty of Port Colborne was easy prey for the dashing winger.
With the retirement of Geo. Stark from Stouffville’s hockey limelight it would seem that an entire hockey era had faded away. Coach Bob Bangay will find it difficult to locate a player who can rightly wear the No.8, the trade number of one of Stouffville’s finest. CLIPPERS SPLIT WITH NEWMARKET
The Stouffville Clippers and Newmarket Redmen each ruined the other’s home debut by winning on the oppositions ice. On Friday night the Clipper chalked up a decisive 8-1 victory over the Canal Town crew while on Saturday night here the tables were turned and Newmarket squared the series with a 6-3 win. On Saturday night the big $1,200 line of Sinclair, Boniface and Brankston paid off for Newmarket as the trio figured in three of their clubs six goals. Kenny Sinclair, the lean good-natured centre star was the triggerman on each occasion. Newmarket opened the scoring at 1.15 of the first period position fired the puck past Clipper sub goalie Terry Sye from an uncovered position in front of the net. In the second frame the visitors made it 2-0 as the former Leaside trio clicked again for a neat three-way effort. Ken McNeil broke the ice for Stouffville as he directed Elwood Small’s shot past Tuppling in the Redmen’s cage.
Newmarket increased their lead after only fifty seconds had ticked by in the final session. Sinclair scored his third goal from Boniface. At 2.56 Red Crawford, a new recruit lined up by Coach Bob Bangay, notched his third goal in two games on passes from defenceman Eddie Williams and winger Ronnie Bell. Newmarket sewed up the game midway through the period when Scott and Smith blinked the light to give the visitors a four goal advantage. Clipper centreman Gord Lewis completed the scoring with a relay shot from Don McIntosh at 14.03.
Clipper 8 Newmarket 1
The Stouffville Clippers started the Metro Sr. B schedule on the right foot on Friday night as they scored a decisive victory over Newmarket on the Redmen’s home ice.
Two former Junior stars Al Mugford and Ken “Red” Crawford were standouts for Stouffville each counting two tallies. Ronnie Bell, Frank Stephenson, Hal Gibson and Elwood Small each fired the other Stouffville goals. Ken Sinclair spoiled an outstanding shut out effort for goalie, Jack Rhodes as he blinked the light with but six minutes remaining in the game. The Redmen looked weak in goal as Brewer, a former netminder with Barrie, was duck soup for Clipper marksmen. Rhodes on the other hand was sensational especially in the early minutes the game as the Newmarket squad pelted him with rubber.
Stouffville led 3-0 at the end of the first period, 5-0 at the end of the second and at the midway mark in the final frame were on the top end of an 8-0 count before Sinclair potted his goal.

Clipper Coach Bob Bangay has a number of new faces in his lineup this season. As sub goaltender for Jack Rhodes, he has 21 year old Terry Sye who last year played with Milton. He is married, a newcomer on defence is Al Mugford, 20-year old rearguard, who hails from Toronto. Last year he played with Unionville Jets. He is married. Up on the forward line the Clippers have a number of promising stars. Rightwinger Don Claydon is starting his first season in a Stouffville uniform. The 22 year old winger lives in Toronto and played last year in the Lakeshore League. He is not married. One of the flashiest newcomers is Ken ”Red” Crawford, 20 year old speedster from Scarboro. Last season he starred with the Galt Black Hawk. He is a right hand shot. He is married.
At the present time Stouffville boasts a young club aided with a sprinkling of well- seasoned veterans. The youngest player on the team is Joe Lewis, 19 of Stouffville. The oldest is Hal Gibson, 28, who also resides in Stouffville. The ages of some of other players are as follows: Ken McNeil, 21; Don McIntosh, 23; Ronnie Bell, 25; Joe Scatalon, 27 and Elwood Small 27. CLIPPERS EDGE ORILLIA 5-4 IN FINAL MINUTE OF PLAY
Stouffville’s defence went on the offensive on Saturday night as the Clippers edged Orillia 5-4. The local rearguard figured in three of the five goals. Don McIntosh netted the winner at 18.31 with Stouffville playing a man short.
Joe Scatalon, Stouffville’s defensive slap-shot artist notched the first goal unassisted and Gord Lewis made it 2-0 when he whacked a shot by Don McIntosh past Orillia netminder, Bob Shropshire.
The visitors broke the ice later in the third period as Ab Bowen lifted a backhand shot that clipped the top cross bar and dropped behind Stouffville goal tender Jack Rhodes. Orillia staged a two goal rally in the early minutes of the second session to take the lead. Ronnie Nelson, a former Oshawa star, scored from Johnny Wood and Ab Bowen at 2.35 and Bowen notched his second goal of the game at 3.15 to give the Pontiacs a one goal advantage. Ken McNeil put both clubs back on even terms midway through the period on a pass from Elwood Small.
At 7.45 of the third period Earl Clements, a former Lyndhurst Motors forward, broke out of his own zone with line-mate Johnny Wood and although Clipper defenceman Joe Scatalon took Clements completely out of the play, he managed to slip the puck across in front of the net to Woods who was left uncovered.
At the halfway mark in the period Elwood Small tied the score from Hal Gibson and at 18.31 Don MacIntosh fired the clincher. Al Mugford was in the penalty box at the time and Stouffville were playing with a man short.
The win boosted Stouffville into a second place tie with Orillia, one point back of Newmarket.
The line of Gord Lewis, Joe Lewis and Hal Gibson looked the best for Stouffville on the nights play . G. Lewis suffered a gash over his nose in the 2nd period which requited stitches. Ken McNeil turned in his usual hard-checking game and was especially brilliant when his team was shorthanded. Next Saturday night Lyndhurst Motors will be the visitors on Stouffville ice. POLLY MINTON TO COACH LOCAL JUNIOR ‘D‘ ENTRY
Polly Minton will coach Stouffville’s new Jr. D hockey entry. They hope to hold their first practice session on Friday night of this week.

Some of these lads are Dave Hammersley, Grant Wagg, Jim Rennie, Bruce Middleton, Bruce Fockler, Ross Madill, Don Haynes, Bob Todd, Gord Eckardt, Barry Wilkes and many others. A grouping has not been arranged CLIPPERS AND ORILLIA PLAY PAST MIDNIGHT
On Wednesday night the Stouffville Clippers and Orillia Pontiac battled to a 4-4 overtime draw in one of the longest Sr. B games on record. The game lasted until 12.45 Thursday morning. Forty-three penalties were handed out, 23 to Stouffville. The Clippers staged a last-ditch rally in the third period, when they found themselves two goals down with but four minutes remaining in the game. They came through however with the necessary goals to extend the contest into overtime. Gord Lewis scored in the extra session from Hal Gibson but the Pontiacs ace centre star Earl McCrone roared back with the equalizer at 8.08. Gord Lewis was the only two goal man. Hal Gibson and Frank Stephenson notched the tallies for the Clippers. Earl McCrone, Ab Bowen, Lloyd Pearsall and Vic Grigg counted for Orillia. More than 1,000 fans witnessed the three hour game.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas SHOULD THE SLAP-SHOT BE RULED OUT OF HOCKEY?
Before the arrival of Don McIntosh and Joe Scatalon to the Stouffville Clipper, local hockey fans knew little or nothing bout the terrific speed of a slap shot. To my knowledge the only other player to make use of it to any extent was Polly Minton and then only in practice sessions or when the puck was bouncing or rolling. However both Clipper rearguards MacIntosh and Scatalon have been using this type of shot with devastating effect. The speed of the shot makes the puck imperceptible to even the most keen-eyed hockey fan. The type of slap hot delivered by the two Stouffville defencemen can turn a hockey game into a sixty minute nightmare for even the most agile netminders. There isn’t a goaltender in the world that has any idea where a slap shot is going. It may sink into the bottom corner of the net or clip the top crossbar of the cage. The speed of the shot is so deadly that it was necessary to replace a portion of the end boards in the Stouffville Arena following the hockey playoffs last season. On one occasion during a recent practice. Joe Scatalon rifled a shot through the entrance door to the ice surface and cut a three inch groove in one of the dressing room doors. One can imagine what would happen if such a shot clipped a goaltender on the forehead. Joe Scatalon and Don MacIntosh have similar styles in their delivery of the shot. Scatalon drive is harder than that of his team mate. Two weeks ago when Orillia were the visitors here the two Clipper blueline bouncers delivered one blazing slap shot after another in the general direction of goaltender Bob Shropshire in the Pontiac cage. At times there wasn’t a player on the ice or a fan in the seats who could tell whether their shots had gone past the net or through it. In the dying minutes of the game MacIntosh notched the winner with a sizzling low drive from the blueline.
It wouldn’t be fair to such players to rule out a shot of this kind as they have perfected it into an amazing offensive weapon. But one of these nights some player whose reactions are not too fast will find himself facing a round rubber disk and will be unable to dodge the supersonic missile. A blow from such a shot could cause permanent injury or even prove fatal. A player will have to use his own common sense and discretion when he feels the urge to break the sound barrier. UNBREAKABLE HOCKEY STICKS
Every season thousands of dollars are spent by hockey clubs in the purchasing of hockey sticks. Even the most expensive hickory fails to stand up to the wear and tear of the game. This hockey stick problem may soon be solved. A company at Breslau, Ont. hopes to introduce a new hockey stick with a fibre glass base. The cost will naturally be higher than the ordinary brand but it carries the warranty of a free replacement if it breaks. It is light and sturdy. It is expected that the new product will be given a thorough test this season. LIONS PEEWEE TEAMS

It is expected that there may be some boys who have not registered. They should report to one of the coaches as soon as they arrive at the arena on Saturday afternoon. Players arriving late for a game will not be permitted to play. Each club must furnish its own goaltender. Out of the 75 boys registered one week ago, 35 were in the 12 year old bracket, 21 were 11 years old, 10 were 10 years old, 6 were 9 years old and 3 were 8 years old. Others have been added since that time. THE PRICE OF ADMISSION
Last week a letter appeared on the sport page from a Clipper fan who felt that the 75 cents admission charge to Senior hockey games was too high. The suggestion that the price be lowered has raised much comment both in Stouffville and surrounding district. Many feel that a lesser charge for adults would more than balance up the rinks coffers through increased attendance. The majority are very strongly in favor of breaking down the admission charge in order that more students and young boys and girls would attend the games. The present system of charging a straight 75c is driving the family customers away from the rink. The hockey prices must be made attractive or would-be fans will seek other forms of entertainment. Television especially on Saturday night is a big drawing card. A few years ago the game of hockey did not have to contend with this form of rivalry. A crowd tends to attract a crowd. Fans would rather file into a packed arena tilled with a thousand spectators than watch the same game with only 200 spectators present. The admission charge is not the arenas only source of revenue. The snack bar does a land slide business when the attendance is good. I believe that any hockey fan would not object to paying 75c during the playoffs, but the feeling seems to be that the price should be lowered during the regular scheduled games. FRANK STEPHENSON PACES CLIPPERS TO 11-5 WIN
Frank Stephenson, Stouffville’s hard-driving right winger counted three goals on Saturday night as the Clippers trounced Lyndhurst motors 11-3. It was East Yorks sixth straight loss. Although Stephenson’s hat trick was the best single effort of the night, three other Stouffville veterans tallied twice. Hal Gibson, Elwood Small and Ronnie Bell were two-goal men. Don McIntosh and Ken Crawford notched singles.
Lyndhurst speedster Johnny Scott was Gregg Currie’s standout performer. He fired three of the visitors five goals. Hillier and Sluce were the other Toronto marksmen. Lyndhursts were woefully shorthanded for the game. They completed the contest with but eight players. Russ Robertson, Lyndhursts steady rearguard, played the entire sixty minutes.
As in their previous meeting, Lyndhursts jumped into an early 1-0 lead as Scott beat Clipper goalie Jack Rhodes at 2.40 of the opening period. Stephenson put Stouffville back on even terms from Bell at 15.28.
Gord Lewis, Stouffville’s ace centreman, will be out of action for at least two weeks due to torn leg ligaments suffered early in the game.
Stephenson struck for his second goal at 2.35 of the middle period to put the Clippers in front to stay. Hal Gibson made it 3-1 for Stouffville. Midway through the session
defenceman Don MacIntosh made a fatal move in front of his own net and Hillier of
Lyndhurst jumped on the loose puck to put the Toronto squad back in the game. Goals by Scott and Sluce of Lyndhursts were nullified by similar tallies from the sticks of Stephenson and Ronnie Bell. At the end of the second period the Clippers held a 5-4 edge.
In the third and final twenty minutes of play, the lack of playing strength began to take its toll on the visitors. From the opening face-off Red Crawford blinked the light. Don MacIntosh scored from Gibson and Ronnie Bell fired his second goal of the game on a pass from Crawford to give the Clippers a convincing 8-4 advantage. Elwood Small suddenly sprang to life and notched two in a row and Hal Gibson completed the route with the final Stouffville goal of the game. Scott rounded out his 3- goal effort for Lyndhursts with his third tally of the contest.
Gordie Haddleton, a spark plug with the Clippers last season, returned on Saturday night for his first game under the Stouffville colours since the schedule commenced three weeks ago. His terrific speed made him a favourite with local hockey fans last year and he will be a welcomed addition to Bob Bangay’s squad again this season. CLIPPER DEFENCEMAN LEADS IN SCORING
Don Macintosh, 23 year old Stouffville Clipper defence star, is currently leading his team mates in the point scoring parade. The popular rearguard has scored three goals and assisted on eight others for a total of i11 points. This is one point more than left winger Elwood Small who has collected six goals and four assists for a 10 point total. Frank Stephenson and Elwood Small are currently tied in the goal scoring department with six apiece.

Gord Lewis, local Stouffville Clipper centre, has always been noted for his accurate shooting. Last week he turned his sights on a different game — fleet-footed deer with deadly results. Gord bagged three deer and one fox with seven shots. A little more than a week ago the husky forward pulled the ligaments in his leg and was forced out of hockey action. This however did not deter his hunting ambitions and he along with Allan Lewis and Albert Allan both of the 7th concession of Markham and Ed Leary of Gormley drove into the north woods to the Emsdale district. Due to a severe stiffness in his leg Gord set up his vantage point near the car and waited. After a time three deer crossed his sights and were dropped in their tracks. Mr. Leary bagged one and Albert Allan another. Gord is expected to be back sniping at opposing goaltenders in a couple of weeks. REDMEN EVEN SERIES WITH 5-3 WIN OVER CLIPPERS
Stouffville suffered their second defeat of the season as they dropped a 5-3 verdict to Newmarket here on Saturday night. It was Herbie Cain’s big line of Sinclair, Boniface and Brankston that spelled defeat for the homesters. Sinclair notched three goals, Boniface and Ptastnik fired singles.
The visitors broke into a 1-0 lead at 7.40 of the first period when Sinclair tipped the puck past Rhodes. Play in the opening twenty minutes was of the ragged variety.
Both teams set a fast pace in the second and third periods. Don Claydon put Stouffville back on even terms when he stepped out of the players box, grabbed a loose puck at the blueline and drilled a low shot into the bottom corner of the Newmarket cage.
The Clippers went one up at 3.52 of the period when Joe Lewis snared Gordie Haddleton’s pass and dribbled a shot past Cruikshank. The period was far from over, however, as the Redmen raced back and counted two in a row. Ptastnik scored from Chard at 10.11 and Sinclair put the Canaltown crew in the lead to stay with an unassisted tally.
Gordie Boniface teamed up with linemates Sinclair and Boniface to give Newmarket a 4-3 advantage of at 7.58 of the final frame. MacIntosh put the Clippers back in the contest momentarily at 13.18 but Sinclair sewed the game up with five minutes to play. The entire contest was one of the best played here this season. Both clubs were going at top speed and goaltenders Cruikshank and Rhodes were called on to make a number of sensational saves. Rhodes in particular was great especially in the second and third periods when the Redmen forced the play to his doorstep.
The teams played it rough throughout the sixty minutes but there was only one real out break of fisticuffs. Fiery Gordie Haddleton and Gord Boniface squared off behind the Stouffville net in the second period. Haddleton took the round with three rights and a left to his opponent’s head. Both players were banished with majors. CLOSE GAMES FEATURE OPENING OF PEEWEE SCHEDULE
The Stouffville Lions Club Peewee teams opened their lengthy six month schedule on Saturday afternoon with all 6 clubs getting into action. The Toronto Maple Leafs, coached by Barry Wilkes chalked up a decisive win over Garth Brubackers Boston Bruins with an 8-2 victory. Peter Stover was the big cog in the Leafs machine firing three of his team’s eight goals. Gary Taylor notched two with Roger Stover, Larry McMullen and Ricky Wedseltoft scoring singles. Boston’s goals were scored by Marvin Betz and Mike Epworth.
In the Chicago-New York contest, Ron Stewart, front line speedster with Casey Hilliard’s Black Hawks was the whole show as he netted two tallies. The Hawks downed the Rangers by the score of 2-1. Both Stewart’s goals were fine efforts and it appears likely that he will be one of the stars of the league this season. Wayne Pennanen guarded the nets for the winners. The Ranger goal was scored by Glenn Barkey on a pass from forward Doug Allman.
In the other game Montreal Canadiens edged Detroit Red Wings 4-3. Lynn McMullen was the hero of the game for the Canadiens scoring two goals, both on breakaways from centre ice. The winner came off McMullen’s stick with only a few minutes remaining in the game. Glenn Pennanen, netminder with the Montrealers, was a standout performer stopping many wide open scoring chances. Jerry Patterson and Jack Paddley were the other Montreal marksmen. For Detroit, Gord MacDowell notched two with Bob Lehman scoring the other. Geo. Malcolm turned in a fine game for the wings but couldn’t beat Pennanen in the Canadiens net. Jim Wagg, second line forward with Montreal, looked good. HADDLETON SPARKS CLIPPERS TO WIN 8-4 OVER NEWMARKET
A three-goal outburst by pint- sized Gordie Haddleton sparked the Stouffville Clippers to an 8-4 win over the Newmarket Redmen on Friday night. The fast-stepping centreman fired all of his goals in the first period as the winners piled up a convincing 4-0 lead. Frank Stephenson counted two more in the second frame without a reply from the big guns of the CanalTown crew. In the final frame Don McIntosh and Don Claydon made it 8-0 for the Clippers before Newmarket could find the range. Chard ,Boniface, Scarcello and Brankston scored for the Redmen in that order. All their goals came within five minutes.
Gordie Haddleton Stouffville’s ball of fire, collected a total of six points with three goals and three assists. Calhoun notched the other Stouffville tally.

On Saturday night I took up my usual position in the new press box to watch the progress of the game. Besides myself and a former clipper defenceman, Bert Baker, there were four other onlooker who were watching the contest from the lofty position. I later discovered them to be wives of Clipper hockey players. They were Mrs. Ronnie Bell, Mrs. Frank Stephenson, Mrs. Gordie Haddleton and Mrs. Joe Lewis. BOWLER ROLL RECORD 378
On Saturday, Mr. Bill Card a Whitchurch township resident bowled a record 378 at the Musselman’s Lake bowling alley. This is the highest score yet chalked up at the centre. ORILLIA WALLOPS CLIPPERS 7-2 IN ROUGH GAME
Before a crowd of close to 500 spectators (250 from Orillia) the Stouffville Clippers
received a 7-2 shellacking at hands of the Pontiacs here on Saturday night. It was Orillia’s night from the drop of the puck and although the Clippers at times showed signs of their former hockey ability. The Couchicking crew were not to be denied their victory. The game was a rough and rugged tilt with both clubs spending a total of 47 minutes in the penalty box. Orillia was thumbed for thirteen minors while Stouffville received eight minors and one major.
Earl Clements, a former Lyndhurst Motors forward opened the scoring for Orillia at 12.40 with a picture goal scored with goalie Jack Rhodes out of position. Lloyd Pearsall made it 2-0 three minutes later with a long shot from the blue- line through a maze of players legs and skates. Near the end of the period Calhoun of the Clippers and Shewchuk of Orillia became embroiled in a wrestling bee. The Stouffville player was banished with a major while Shewchuk received a minor.
Orillia increased their lead in the early minutes of the second frame with two fast goals . Vic Grigg scored after only sixteen seconds had ticked by and Pearsall made it 4-0 when he grabbed a loose puck at the Stouffville blueline and wrapped it home with his team playing a man short.
Gordie Haddleton broke the ice for the Clippers at 4.13 on passes from MacIntosh and Gibson. His quick wrist shot from about ten feet out gave Shropshire in the Pontiac cage no chance to make the stop. At 12.54 Stouffville defenceman, Joe Scatalon rifled a slap shot into the Orillia net to put the Clippers momentarily back in the game.
The Clippers’ attack seemed to falter in the later stages of the period and the Pontiacs took advantage of the breaks to add two more goals to their total. Johnny Wood scored from Pearsall and Jerry Gerow made it 6-2 when the Stouffville defence were slow in clearing.
In the final frame the Clippers attempted to close the gap but they couldn’t make their shots count. Orillia added a single tally at 18.17 when Wood notched his second goal of the game.
Geo. Stark returned to the Stouffville lineup but was used sparingly. Don MacIntosh suffered injury early in the game but returned to finish the contest. Gord Lewis is still out of the lineup with a leg ailment but is expected back shortly.

POLICE BREAK UP HOCKEY GAME BRAWL
On Saturday night in the Stouffville arena near the Clipper-Lyndhurst game a wild two-man brawl broke out on the ice between rightwinger Don Claydon of Stouffville and Hughes of East York. The two men exchanged blows, when finally separated Claydon appeared ready for the showers with much of his uniform torn from his back. Hughes of Lyndhursts took exception to referee Loring Doolittle intervening in their private feud and lashed out a well-aimed right uppercut to Doolittle’s chin. The referee promptly called for the police and OPP W.S. Constable escorted the enraged player to the dressing room.
The contest was a rough hard-hitting affair from start to finish with numerous other fistic outbreaks occurring throughout the contest. Don MacIntosh, Stouffville rearguard delivered the severest beating to an unidentified Lyndhurst Motors player midway through the game when both men tangled inside the net. Both received majors. When tile teams weren’t roughing it up they played hockey. Stouffville looked as good or better than they have at anytime this season. They performed as a team and their plays were working to better advantage.
The Clipper defence continued to set a record scoring pace. Slap-shot artist Joe Scatalon notched two goals both from the blueline and rearguard Don MacIntosh fired one. Ronnie Bell with two, Ken McNeil, Don Claydon and Eddie Crust were the other Stouffville marksmen. Kennedy and Scott were the East York goal scorers. Lyndhurst Motors iced only ten men for the game. They have failed to win a scheduled game so far this season. WEBSTER AND BANGAY MAY RETURN
Since the start of the senior hockey schedule, Clipper hockey fans have been questioning the whereabouts of forwards Nick Bangay and Chick Webster. Nick probably one of the many popular players ever to play in Stouffville has been out to various games but so far has not donned the skates and pads. Chick has also not taken part a scheduled game so far this season. Coach Bob Bangay, although uncertain, states that he believes both will be in the lineup shortly. Chick, a former American League star, wants to be in perfect shape before he joins his teammates in a regular rough and tumble game. Nick is presently working out of this district and is not available for active service. Both would be valuable additions to the Clipper roster. BOSTON WINS IN PEEWEE NHL
Speedy Mike Epworth of the Boston Bruins fired two goals to lead his team to a 4-1 victory over the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday afternoon of last week. John Collier and Joe Haylow notched singles for the winners. The Boston win coupled by losses to the Canadiens and Rangers left four clubs deadlocked for third place. Chicago Black Hawks are well out in front with three straight victories while the Leafs are in second place with two wins and one loss.
Casey Hilliard’s Hawks whitewashed the Canadiens while New York Rangers went down to defeat at the hands of the Leafs, 3 to 1. Glenn Barkey got the lone Ranger tally. On Monday night at the annual “Pop” concert the Chicago Black Hawks chalked up another win edging the Leafs 2 to 1. Bill Ratcliff and Warren Hendricks were the marksmen. Keith Stewart scored for the Blue and White.

by Jim Thomas THE BEST GAME OF THE SEASON
On Saturday night of last week hockey fans witnessed one of the best games played in the Stouffville arena this season. One could not wish for better hockey than was displayed in the Newmarket-Clipper tussle here. The Redmen led by their ace trio of Gord Boniface Russ Brankston and Kenny Sinclair proved why they are the worthy holders of number one position in the Sr.group. Their club this season appears to be better balanced from the forward line through to the goaltender. It would appear that Coach Herbie Cain depends on his big three line to score the goals and his other line to hold the opposition from scoring. Whether that is his plan or not it would be my belief that the former Leaside pucksters have scored more goals than any other threesome playing hockey in Ontario. Sinclair himself has netted at least four hat tricks, not to speak of his many single tallies. In paying the reported $400 apiece for these stars Newmarket has gone all out to bring the Senior silverware home. It is quite a gamble but so far this season it has paid off. JR. HOCKEY RETURNS
It has been a number of years since Junior hockey held the sports limelight here in Stouffville. This year a Jr. ‘D’team has been organized. The squad is made up almost entirely of home town players with a sprinkling of out-of-town talent. The team is coached by Stouffville’s own Polly Minton and so far in the young season he appears to be doing a fine job with the club. They have played only two games, beating Beeton and losing to a powerful Collingwood aggregation. The team is fast and rugged and should give a good account of itself. The admission of Unionville from ‘C’ to ‘D’ ranks should produce some good hockey rivalry between the two towns. Hockey fans will recall such players as Bun Sellers, Keith Jewett, Gord Lewis, Norm Stunden, Mac Clement and Polly Minton with the Red Wings of a few years back. We now have such players as Grant Wagg, Dave Hammersley, Don Tran, John Tran, Jim Rennie, Jack Pollard, Bruce Middleton, Doug Forfar who will be the Senior stars of tomorrow. LYNDHURST FOLD FROM OHA SENIOR ‘B‘ HOCKEY
Lyndhurst motors coached by Vic Sluce and managed by Gregg Currie have decided to drop out of Senior ‘B’ competition. The decision was reached following a meeting of the club this week. They have failed to win a game so far this season. The OHA has ordered all players on the team frozen. It is reported that Stouffville are seeking the services of one or two members of the now defunct squad. REDMEN EDGE CLIPPERS 6-5 IN OVERTIME CONTEST
In by far the finest game of hockey staged so far this season in the Stouffville Arena, Newmarket Redmen edged the clippers 6-5 on Saturday night in an action packed overtime contest. It was one of those games that had everything. There were picture passing plays, hair-raising breakaways, some nifty goaltending work and a few fisticuffs to keep things interesting. The entire contest had both the home fans and many visiting rooters from Newmarket on their feet. The sudden climax came in the overtime session when Ron Scarcello of the Redmen bounced the puck off sub-goalie Terry Sye during a wild scramble around the Clipper cage. The puck, although grabbed by Sye, had enough momentum to carry it over the line. Stouffville tried in vain to count the equalizer but the visitors held the fort.
Ronnie Bell was Stouffville’s hero, scoring two goals in the third period to force the teams into extra time. His first tally came at 10.10 on passes from Crawford and Stephenson and his second at 15.58. Elwood Small, Hal Gibson and Geo. Stark were the other Clipper marksmen.
For the canaltown crew the Sinclair Boniface for the Canaltown crew the big line of Sinclair, Boniface and Brankston proved to be the flies in Stouffville’s ointment. Boniface counted two goals and his linemates potted singles. Zip Thompson notched the other Newmarket tally.
In the opening eight or ten minutes of the game Stouffville raced to the attack and literally pinned their rivals inside their own blueline, However, despite the sustained bombardment which appeared to have the Redmen on the ropes, Kenny Sinclair broke free and flipped the puck to Boniface who deked Stouffville netminder out of his pads for the first goal of the game. Four minutes later Geo. Stark lobbed a long shot from the blueline that Newmarket netminder Cruickshank fanned on and the puck rolled into the corner. With less than two minutes remaining in the opening session, Boniface counted his second goal to give the visitors a 2-1 advantage.
There was one main outbreak of violence midway through the period involving Calhoun of the Clippers and Ptashnik of the Redmen. Calhoun was the victor as he connected with some solid rights and lefts that dropped his opponent to the ice . Fans will recall how this same Ptashnik was responsible for sending Nick Bangay to hospital a little more than one year ago with a broken jaw and badly lacerated head. He was then playing with Ravina Flyers. Don MacIntosh, Stouffville’s ace rearguard, was given a five minute major by referee Jim Crombie when he cut centreman Ken Sinclair with a high stick.
It took Hal Gibson but forty- eight seconds to put Stouffville back on even terms in the second period when he combined with Gordie Haddleton. The Clippers, however, seemed to run out of steam for the remainder of the session and Newmarket scored twice. Their third goal scored by Zip Thompson came with the Redmen playing a man short and the fourth near the end of the period. Sinclair swept the puck into the Stouffville’s cage from a prone position in front of the net.
The third period saw Stouffville stage a renewed offensive and once again tie up the game. Ronnie Bell and Elwood Small scored the Clippers third and fourth goals.
At 14.05 Russ Brankston put the Canaltown crew out front for the third time in the game but Ronnie Bell roared back to fire the equalizer and send both clubs into overtime. At 5.40 of the extra session, Ron Scarcello let go with a 100-1 shot that found its mark.
On the night’s play Newmarket deserved to win. Stouffville however looked much superior on power attacks which at times had the Redmen reeling. The victory boasted Newmarket three points ahead of Stouffville who presently hold down the number two position. RED WINGS WHIP BEETON 6-3 IN JR. ‘D‘ OPENER
Stouffville Red Wings led by a fast-skating trio of Don Tran, John Tran and Dave Hammersley scored a 6-3 win over Beeton on Thursday night. It was the first game in the OHA Jr. D schedule. Beeton were OHA Junior D champions last year and finalists in 1953.
The Red Wings, coached by Polly Minton, have the makings of a strong club. They have a good defence in Grant Wagg, Jack Pollard, Ted Mendyk and Tip Vipond. With 3 full forward lines and a steady netminder in Bruce Middleton the Stouffville squad should give their rivals plenty of opposition.
Beeton were able to ice only eight men for the game, one forward line, two defencemen a goaltender and two spares. Despite their lack of manpower they put up a pleasing performance and skated hard right to the final whistle. Loring Doolittle and Bruce Harper handled the contest.
Doug Forfar put Stouffville out front after only three minutes of the first period but Beeton rallied five minutes later to tie the score as Charlie Colman beat Middleton in the Red Wing cage with an unassisted tally. Stouffville took the lead at 14.05 as John and Don Tran combined to score and the homesters the advantage for the remainder of the game. Jake Harmon made it 3-2 from Vipond near the end of the period.
Stouffville lengthened their lead in the second frame as John Tran, Don Tran, and Dave Hammersley scored while Beeton were playing with a man in the penalty box. Louie Keogh blinked the light for the visitors at 17.23 to make the score read 4-2 in Stouffville’s favour.
Don Tran, Dicksons Hill contribution to the Red Wing lineup, notched his first goal of the young season midway through the final frame with cousin John assisting as the homesters took a 3 goal advantage. Eddie Crocke scored for Beeton and Brooklin’s Ted Mendyk retaliated for Stouffville with only seconds left to play. The last goal was a picture play by the Red Wings’ 2 defencemen, Mendyk and Vipond giving the Beeton netminder little chance to make the stop.
Midway through the last period Louie Turner in the Beeton cage took a hard shot on the head and although not seriously injured he was dazed by the blow. The game was held up for a few minutes but resumed when the goalie’s head cleared.

by Jim Thomas SHOULD GET TOGETHER
Stouffville’s chances of winning an OMBA midget C championship this year are rather slim, due to a ridiculous situation that exists here. At the present time our town has two entries one in the North York circuit and another operating under the Lions banner. Together I believe that we could ice a Provincial champion, but separated it is unlikely that either club will advance too far along the playoff route. Who should ice the ONE Stouffville Midget club? I don’t really know nor do I really care. I do know this, however, that divided, we cannot stand.
I realize that there is more to minor hockey than the winning of championships, but none of us will forget our Bantam team of last year that advanced into the Provincial finals. Such favourable publicity and acclaim is well worth a combined effort.
I do not wish to open up an old sore, but to me the situation is regrettable. Good midget-age players are not that plentiful in Stouffville. The opposition will be strong enough without sending only a portion of our potential power into the hockey wars. Perhaps, if the boys hang up their togs at midseason, the separated parties will wish hey had given the matter more unbiased consideration. The result of the whole schnozzle could be that Stouffville will play Stouffville in the first round of the Ontario playoffs. I cannot think of anything more absurd. Our North York entry must, of course knock off both Woodbridge, King City and Sutton in order to advance into Provincial competition. The Lions team has a bye into the Ontario playoffs.
Even if some reconciliation is made it is possible that it is now too late to combine our talents. If this is so then there’s little anyone can do. Let it be hoped that such a dilemma shall not occur again. STICKS FOR STARS
Although a number of players excelled in this weeks Lions peewee doubleheader, I feel that the Bruins, KIRK MORTIMER is a deserving winner. Kirk is the type of lad that seldom misses a game. Good weather and bad will see him in the rink. On Monday evening he scored two goals to pace his club to a 3-1 win. For his efforts, he will receive an All-Star hockey stick from Mr. Cec Hendricks’ Hardware Store, Main Street, Stouffville. HOCKEY MAGIC
Give Stouffville’s Hal Gibson a bunch of weak-ankled lads and it’s a pretty safe bet that he’ll produce a hockey contender before playoff time. Last winter he took over the coaching duties of our Bantam entry and before the amazed eyes of every hockey enthusiast he carried the club into the Ontario finals.
This year, another man-size job has been placed in his lap. Once again at the helm of Stouffville’s Bantam entry, he will attempt to duplicate his feat of last year. His job is even more difficult this winter since, I believe, he lacks some of the natural talent, that was evident in the roster of 53-54. But don’t sell the team short. In two exhibition games with Port Perry they have chalked up victories. Give the boys a few more contests under their belts and anything can happen. After last seasons spectacular playoff performance, it is difficult to say what Coach Gibson will pull but of his magic hat. RANGERS SCORE UPSET BLANK HAWKS 7-0
The Rangers staged a real upset on Monday night in the Lions Peewee League by blank ing the second place Black Hawks 7-0. The win pulled the Rangers to within one point of the Hawks and Bruins who are currently tied.
The winners enjoyed a field day in the goal-scoring department, picking up a total of 13 points. Teddy Todd was the most potent marksman, firing two goals and assisting on three others. The remaining tallies were divided among five other players. Brent Weldon, Robert Kennedy, Ben Aida, Randy Mole and Ron Thompson notched singles. Donald Smith, Danny Irwin and Randy Mole collected assists. The Hawks were without the services of their agile netminder, Laurie Buckland.
Bruins 3, Wings 1
Paul Lintner and Kirk Mortimer teamed up to lead the Bruins to a 3-1 win over the first place Red Wings. Lintner’s first tally came on a pass from Michael Moore. Kirk Mortimer sewed up the Bruin win with two goals in a row. Lintner picked up assists on both goals. Barry Hiltz fired the lone marker for the Wings. It was only the second loss for the Wings this year. They have won six. EIGHTY SKATERS IN “POP” CONCERT
Stouffville Skating Club members and friends were treated to a sparkling performance last Friday evening by Tina Johnson. Tina, one of Oakville’s skating stars is a 7th Test skater.
At the local skating club’s annual “Pop” concert about 80 members participated in an interesting and varied program. The little children took part in a free skating session and The Grand March. Chuck Kiel’s Adult Dance Date and several pairs and solo numbers were also featured. Stouffville’s two top skaters, Jean Winterstein and Karen Lewis each gave an excellent account of themselves in their dazzling solos. Soloists not featured before were Betty Ann Slack and Joyce DeWitt. These girls have made considerable progress in the past year. A big hit of the evening was the final Court Number “Aint She Sweet,” by the senior girls. CLIPPERS WIN SECOND STRAIGHT, TRIM BEETON 9-5
The Stouffville Clippers chalked up their second victory in two nights and their third win in four games as they trimmed Beeton 9-5 here on Tuesday. They scored an 11-6 win over Alliston on Monday.
More Drive
The Stouffville team showed more desire and drive on Tuesday night than they had displayed in some previous home encounters. The locals had a wide edge in the territorial play and only some fine work by Bob Kearns in the Beeton cage kept the score from advancing into the double figures. In the final frame, the contest took the form of a rugby match with Stouffville making repeated attempts to crash through the Beeton defences. It was only a matter of time until the visitors weakened under the pressure. The Clippers outscored Beeton 5-1 in the third period.
Player Shortage
Beeton could ice only nine men. In spite of their man power shortage, the team played well throughout the greater portion of the contest. They ran out of steam in the latter stages. Big Ab Bowen, a former powerhouse on the Orillia rearguard, was absent from the Beeton lineup. According to reports, there has been some friction within the team’s ranks. Ken Kelly, the club captain, carried much of the front line load and fired a three goal hat trick for the visitors.
Ross Returns
John Ross, speedy Clipper centre star, returned to the Stouffville lineup and sparked the club every time out. He potted a pair of goals. In addition to performing with the Clippers, he also shares the coaching duties with the Unionville Jets when time will permit. Lou Ross was at the helm on Tuesday night. After a lengthy layoff due to an injury, goalie Joe Carpenter took over in the Clipper cage. Although he appeared to be a trifle shaky in the first period, he is expected to regain his early season form within a week.
Carey Best
George Carey played exceptionally well. The rightwinger worked hard every time out and cashed in for one of Stouffville’s nine tallies. He was blocked on a number of other close-in tries. Coach Watson used Carey on a line with Stan Thornington and Harold Hodgson. He was also used in penalty- killing role.
Three for “Nick”
Phil Nicholas kept pace with Beeton’s Ken Kelly. Each fired a three goal hat trick. Nicholas notched one in the first period and potted a pair in the dying minutes of the final frame. His last two goals came only twenty-five seconds apart. He tipped Stan Thornington’s goalmouth pass over the line at 17.20 and batted in Russ Forfar’s drive at 17.45. Single tallies came from the sticks of Bud Lehman, Moe Blackwell, Geo. Carey and Stan Thornington. Don Bergin and Bruce Nichols each collected one for Beeton.
A Slim Crowd
Less than 100 fans braved the frigid temperatures to watch the game. Although the attendance was even less than last week’s crowd, they watched a much better brand of hockey. Stouffville has a one-week layoff until Tuesday Dec 16th when they entertain Milton here. MIDGETS BLANK SUTTON 12-0; MACMILLAN FIRES 5
Stouffville’s Midget entry in the North York League steamrolled over Sutton on Friday night to rack up a 12-0 win. It was the second successive shut out for netminder Glenn Jackson. He blanked Sutton in a previous meeting here.
Lynn McMullen was a ball of fire for the locals. He rapped five goals into the Sutton cage and assisted on another. Performing on a line with Rick Wedseltoft at centre and Keith McDowell on the wing, the trio accounted for seven of the 12 goal total. McDowell and Wedseltoft at centre and Keith McDowell on the wing, each fired singles.
Grant Foreman potted a pair for the winners. Larry McMullen, Bill Hoover and Roger Stover were the other goalgetters.
Though not indicated by the score, Sutton appeared somewhat improved over their weak effort here in the previous encounter. Stouffville counted 3 tallies while shorthanded. Eleven of the locals’ markers were scored in the final frame.
Stouffville will have an opportunity to test their manpower Friday night here when they play host to Woodbridge. The local squad makes the return trip to Woodbridge on Tuesday, Dec. 16. BANTAMS EDGE PORT 4-3 FOREMAN NETS WINNER
Keith Foreman banged in Frank Taylor’s rebound to give the Stouffville Bantams a 4-3 victory over Port Perry in a pre-playoff exhibition game on Monday night. The winner came at the ten minute mark of the second period after the visitors had staged a two goal rally earlier in the middle frame to even the count.
Foreman’s game-winning tally was his second of the contest. He hit the target from a difficult angle at the thirteen minute mark of the first period. The local rightwinger’s style is much similar to his brother Grant, who performs on Stouffville’s North York Midget entry.
The first string trio of Barry McLean, Roger Forsyth and Jim Miller set the pace for the homesters. McLean fired a pair for Stouffville. His first tally came on a fine three-way passing effort after only two minutes had gone by in the first period. Forsyth and Miller picked up assists on the goal.
At the eight minute mark, Barry McLean put Stouffville out front with an unassisted tally. Foreman made it 3-1 with a forty-five degree angle drive.
Port Perry came to life in the second period and rapped two pucks behind goalie Bob Wagg in the Stouffville cage. Menzies hit the target at 3.10 and McMillan caromed a shot off Wagg’s glove into the twine at 9.40. Less than a minute later Foreman netted the winner.
On the night’s play, Stouffville were outshot 34-20. Wayne Oldham and Bobby Wagg shared the netminding chores for the homesters. Wagg blocked 20 shots. Oldham turned aside 16. Two Port Perry goalies handled 17 shots.
McMillan was Port Perry’s best, although he scored only one goal, he was robbed on 3 other goal-labelled shots. Oldham blocked him once and Wagg turned aside two drives. There were five penalties in the game, four to Stouffville and one to Port. Polly Minton officiated. CLIPPERS TRIM ALLISTON 11-6
After suffering a loss to Milton on Friday night, the Clippers bounced back to hand Alliston an 11-6 setback on Monday. Stouffville spotted their rivals a three goal lead in the first period but roared back to count six tallies in the second frame and five more in the 3rd period. Kevin O’Connor paced the Clipper attack with a three goal hat trick. John Ross, Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman each potted a pair. Stan Thornington and Phil Nicholas notched singles. VI BOOTH BOWLS 260 SINGLE
Vi Booth, an almost weekly contender in the high singles bracket, moved to the top of the heap last week with a score of 260. Her mark was 12 points in front of Ann Lehman, who collected a 248. Gaye Rennie was also in the runner-up spot with 235. In the high triple department, Gaye Rennie topped the list with a 628. Vi Booth placed second with a 605. The Clippers were unsuccessful in their bid to obtain additional import manpower to bolster their lineup. The request submitted to the O.H.A. Btu Stouffville management was supported by Executive Member, L.E. O’Neill. The Association felt that it would be setting a precedent to grant such permission to the Clipper club. Other teams were also seeking similar favours.

This week it’s hat off the Gary Baston, star centreman with the New York Rangers in the Stouffville Lions Peewee League. On Saturday afternoon Gary scored eight goals as his team rolled to an easy 9-1 victory. In three games, this up-and-coming hockey star has netted eighteen goals. A BUSY NIGHT
On Saturday night, Dr. D.H. Smith of Stouffville was one of the busiest men in town. No less than four Stouffville Clipper hockey players were taken from the arena to his office to be patched up. The first to seek his services was Orillia’s Ab Bowen who suffered a badly bruised nose. Next came Geo. Stark of the Clippers with a gash in his leg which required stitches. After the game was completed, close to the midnight hour, Gordie Haddleton and Ken Crawford, Stouffville forwards, were checked over by Dr. Smith. Haddleton had a cut left arm and Crawford was cut about the face. Leila Byer, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Byer of Stouffville was hit by a flying puck and she was also treated for numerous cuts by the local physician. Luckily none of the injuries were of a serious nature. LOCAL HOCKEY SETUP NOW COMPLETE
Stouffville’s hockey setup is now complete. All boys ranging in age from eight to twenty will now be able to play in the Peewee, Bantam, Midget and Junior ranks. Any who show exceptional ability may catch a position with the Senior squad. At the beginning of the season, minor hockey in Stouffville was at a low ebb. The Peewees, sponsored by the local Lions Club were assured of financial support early in the season but it appeared likely that there would be no bantam or midget hockey here. The Stouffville Machine and Tool offered to sponsor the Midgets, coached by Casey Milliard and on Monday evening the Stouffville Lions Club pledged financial aid to the Bantams who will be coached by Les Clarke. It is unlikely that there is another town in Ontario with a more complete hockey program than Stouffville. LEAFS THUMP WINGS 7-1 IN PEEWEE GAME
Barry Wilkes’ Toronto Maple Leafs moved into a tie for first place in the Stouffville Lions Peewee League with 7-1 victory over Detroit Red Wings, on Saturday afternoon. Both the Leafs and the Black Hawks have chalked up eight points with four wins and one loss. Don Eddington was the top marksman for the winners, firing four goals and picking up two assists. Keith Stewart, Larry McMullen and Rick Wedseltoft notched the other Toronto tallies. Roger Stover assisted on three of the Leaf’s goals.
The big surprise of the afternoon was the resounding 9-1 trimming absorbed by Casey Hilliard’s Chicago Black Hawks. The New York Rangers, coached by Bill Lennox, were responsible for handing the Hawks their first loss of the current schedule. Gary Baston was the main scoring threat for the high-flying Rangers, blinking the light eight times. Glenn Barkey scored the other New York tally. It was a nightmare game for Hawk goalie Glenn Jackson who wasn’t given his usual good protection by his defence and back- checking forwards.
In the other contest the Montreal Canadiens were blanked by Boston 3-0. Mike Epworth fired two goals and Larry Malloy notched the other. Marvin Betz scored a well-earned shutout for the Bruins with a faultless performance. Montreal couldn’t get rolling and when they did have scoring opportunities they were unable to beat Betz in the Boston cage. SHEWCHUK WINS FOR ORILLIA 4-3 IN OVERTIME GAME
A penalty to Stouffville defenceman, Joe Scatalon and a loose puck on the Clipper blueline spelled defeat for the homesters on Saturday night as Orillia’s big Al Shewchuk fired the winner over the shoulder of sub-goaltender Terry Sye at 2.34 of the overtime session. The Pontiacs emerged from the rugged seventy minutes of hockey with a 4-3 victory. Ab Bowen of Orillia and Gordie Haddleton of Stouffville provided the fans with much of the excitement both during the game and after the contest was completed. Early in the first period the two players tangled in a “David and Goliath: battle. The 5’4” Haddleton and the 6’2” Bowen were finally separated. Bowen was taken from the arena for medical treatment after the Clipper centreman connected with a couple of solid right hand blows. At the end of the game while the teams were leaving the ice, Haddleton and Bowen renewed their feud. Bowen was again floored as players from both teams rushed in to assist. Orillia netminder Bob Shropshire and Clipper forward Frank Stephenson exchanged words and Bert Baker joined in the fray. Stouffville coach Bob Bangay rushed out on the ice and helped to break up the melee.
Stouffville suffered heavily from the rugged encounter with five players being injured. Gordie Haddleton received a badly cut and bruised left arm; Geo. Stark was cut on the leg; Gord Lewis aggravated a previous leg injury; Hal Gibson suffered a bruised hand and Ken Crawford was cut on the face with a high stick. James of Orillia and Geo. Stark of the Clippers collided against the back boards. The Pontiac forward was carried from the ice on a stretcher suffering from three broken ribs.
In the goal scoring department, Ab Brown, Ron Nelson, Earl Clements and Al Shewchuk were the Orillia marksmen. Hal Gibson, Geo. Stark and Gordie Haddleton blinked the light for Stouffville.
In the final thirty seconds of the overtime session, Coach Bangay pulled goalie Terry Sye from the cage in favour of an extra forward, and although the Clippers pressed they could not sink the equalizer.
The two teams meet again on Friday night in the Couchiching Centre. It should be a real contest. RED WINGS RAP BEETON 8-4
Stouffville’s Jr. D Red Wings scored their second victory of the young season on Monday night as they whipped Beeton 8-4. It marked Stouffville’s second win over list year’s ‘D’ Champions. Polly Minton’s squad didn’t get rolling until the second period when they outscored their rivals four to one. They added four more in the final frame. Harvey Roberts was the top marksman for the winners, potting the hat trick Don Tran with two. John Tran, Jake Harmon, and Watts were the other Stouffville goalgetters. There were nineteen penalties in the contest, twelve to Beeton and seven to Stouffville. On Thursday night of this week, Midland will be the visitors here and one week from Thursday night, Unionville will pay their first visit of the season here in Stouffville. RED WINGS LOSE TO COLLINGWOOD 9-4
Stouffville Red Wings bowed to Collingwood on Thursday night of last week by a score of 9-4. The homesters put up a fine effort against their more experienced opponents and battled them right down to the final whistle.
The visitors held a 4-0 lead at the end of the first period but Stouffville rallied midway through the second with three goals, in less than two minutes to get back in the game. Doug Forfar broke the ice for the Red Wings with an unassisted goal at 8.20 of the second period and Don Tran made it 4-2 a minute later. Harvey Roberts pulled Stouffville to within one goal of their northern rivals. Just when it appeared that the local squad had Collingwood on the run, Allan Grier, a four goal man for the visitors, rapped in two fast tallies to lengthen their lead. Ted Mendyk, Brooklin’s donation to the homesters lineup, fired the final Red Wing goal. There were twenty-two penalties in the game, ten to Stouffville and twelve to Collingwood. Vipond of the Red Wings and Blanchard of Collingwood received the only major penalties of the contest for fighting. On the night’s play Stouffville kept pace with their rivals between the bluelines but Collingwood appeared to be more finished around the net. It will be the final meeting between the two clubs as Colling wood are in ‘C’ class hockey and Stouffville remain in ‘D’ category. LADIES‘ BOWLING
Bowls were rolling and pins flying for Pat Lehman on Friday night when she scored a high single of 313, and high triple of 768 ( 202 313 253). These scores do not include Handicap! It seems as if the pins didn’t fly the right way for the Klinkers this week as the Whiz Bangs, led by Opal, another member of the Lehman family, took 4 points from them. Joan’s Jonahs also took 4 points nosing ahead of Cracker Jacks leaving them breathing down their necks only one point behind. Leadership spot will be at stake next bowling night, January 7, when these two top teams tangle.

Don’t be surprised during the next couple of weeks if you’re stopped on the sidewalk, in a store or on the highway and are confronted by young lads selling tickets. These boys are members of the Stouffville Lions Peewee League and they are endeavoring to sell enough tickets to put the “Young Canada Night” over with the same success it enjoyed last year. Each boy has pledged himself to sell five admission tickets. They are 25c each. The Lions Peewee night will be held on Friday evening, Jan. 7th. Already some of the young lads have disposed of their tickets and have requested more to sell. One young lad had five tickets sold an hour after they were handed out. Your support of this worth-while effort will be a big boost both to the Peewee salesmen and the local Lions Club. STOUFFVILLE‘S ROCKET RICHARD
Coach Bob Bangay of the Clippers has signed a “Rocket Richard” to the Stouffville lineup. The new player is Nick Dubick, formerly with Niagara Falls in Sr. ‘A’ competition and signed recently by Lyndhurst Motors. He played only two games with Lyndhursts. Dubick is literally jet propelled from the blueline in on the enemy net. On Saturday night he drew a loud round of applause from both local and visiting fans for his spectacular penalty-killing performance. The blonde centre star is only 22 years old. Dubick’s
“puck-ragging” ability reminded hockey fans of the days when Bob Bangay used to baffle opposing defencemen when his team was playing a man short. Fans will be watching this new star with interest in future games. CLIPPER WIN CLOSE 7-6 DECISION OVER REDMEN
Stouffville Clippers paced by hard-driving Frank Stephenson scored a thrilling 76 victory over Newmarket Redmen at the arena on Saturday night. Stephenson fired three goals to keep pace with Newmarket’s Gord Boniface who also netted the hat trick. Ronnie Bell was also in top goal-scoring form with two while Nick Dubick and Ken Crawford were the other marksmen for the winners. Russ Brankston and Fraser Scott notched goals for the Canaltown crew.
Stouffville struck fast in the first period and tucked their first goal behind Cruickshank after only fourteen seconds of play. Stephenson netted the puck on passes from Gibson and Dubick. At 5.17 Fraser Scott tied the score from Scarcello but the Clippers roared back quickly and notched two in a row. Dubick Stouffville’s new centre ice sensation from Niagara Falls, scored from Gibson and Stephenson and Ronnie Bell made it 3-1 from defencemen McIntosh and Baker.
Early in the second period Newmarket’s big line of Sinclair, Brankston and Boniface struck back to once again pull up on even terms. Boniface blinked the light with a fluke shot and Brankston took advantage of a loose play by Crawford in front of the net to beat goalie Terry Sye easily.
At 12.05 Stephenson scored his second tally with a high drive that slipped through
Cruickshank’s arm into the net. In the late stages of the period the Clippers played for two full minutes with two men in the penalty box but they managed to hang onto their slim lead. Some spectacular “puck juggling” by Dubick drew a loud round of applause from both home and visiting fans.
The third period saw Stouffville and Newmarket notch 3 apiece. Ronnie Bell, Ken Crawford and Frank Stephenson scored in that order. Gord Boniface with two and Russ
Brankston tallied for the Redmen. Stephenson’s final goal which proved to be the game-winning tally, was notched on a break away rush with nobody back but the goaltender. He slipped the puck into the corner of the net, then crashed into the backboards.
In the dying seconds of the contest, Coach Herbie Cain pulled goaltender Cruickshank from his cage in an effort to net the tying tally. With the goal empty, Ken MacNeil of the Clippers backhanded the puck from the Newmarket blueline but missed the open net. The Redmen couldn’t get their offensive attack organized before the buzzer ended the game. RED WINGS EDGE MIDLAND 2-1
Stouffville Red Wings scored their second win in a row on Thursday night as they edged Midland 2-1 in a tight contest. Goalie Bruce Middleton of the Red Wings was within nine minutes of chalking up his first shutout of the season when Pete Morreau of Midland shoved the puck over the line for the visitors lone tally. Middleton turned in one of his best performances of the schedule between the pipes for the winners. He was given good protection by rearguards Pollard, Wagg, Vipond and Mendyk.
The game was but three minutes old when Vipond scored on passes from J. Tran and Roberts. Midland were playing with but five players with Ball of Midland sitting out a two-minute charging penalty.
There was no scoring in the second period. Ball, defenceman with Midland, ran into a minor penalty for charging and was tagged with a ten minute misconduct penalty when he argued too strenuously with the referee.
In the final period of play, Doug Forfar, hard working left winger with the Red Wings, potted Stouffville’s second goal assisted by Watt and Harmon. When it appeared possible that Stouffville would hold their rivals off the score sheet, Morreau broke through and scored Midland’s only goal.
There were fourteen penalties in the game, eight to Stouffville and six to Midland. On Thursday night of this week Unionville Jrs. will be the visitors here. LEAFS LEAD WAY IN LIONS NHL

Eldon Wagg and Herb Stolk netted singles. Ron Mortimer turned in a standout performance in the Red Wing net. MILLIONAIRES SEEK MINTON, WEBSTER
Coach Jack Watson of the Markham Millionaires is seeking local centre ice talent to bolster his teams forward line strength. Rumours have it that the Markhamites are seeking the services of ex-Clipper centreman, Polly Minton and Chick Webster. At the present time Minton is handling the coaching duties of the Stouffville Juniors while Webster is not playing any organized hockey so far this season. Both players would be valuable assets to the Millionaires lineup. Bud Watson, brother of Millionaire coach Jack Watson has definitely decided to retire from hockey. Norm Stunden has also decided to hang up his goaltending equipment for this season at least.

Stouffville Clippers turned the tables on Orillia Pontiacs and trounced the league leaders by a score of 9-3 on Saturday night. Hal Gibson, Stouffville’s forward line speedster, who announced his retirement at the end of last season, proved to himself and to the fans there’s still plenty of power in his flying feet. He notch three goals and assisted on another to pace the Clipper attack. Gordie Haddleton fired two goals and picked up one assist with singles coming from sticks of Ken Crawford, Frank Stephenson, Geo. Stark, Ken McNeil. Danny MacDonald and Lloyd Pearsall blinked the light for the Couchiching crew.
Orillia had but eleven men for the game. They woefully shorthanded on defence and suffered further loss when their rearguard mainstay Jack Dyte suffered a leg injury. He blocked a shot inside the Orillia blueline and had to be helped off the ice. The Pontiacs simply ran out of steam in the third period and Stouffville fired 4 goals within the space of five minutes.
Hal Gibson started the Clipper machine rolling in the first period. He scored on passes from Geo. Stark and Don MacIntosh at 5.50 and again at14.51 with assists going to MacIntosh and McNeil.

Danny MacDonald deflected Clary Payne’ s goalmouth pass behind goalie Jack Rhodes for Orillia’s first tally of the contest. Elwood Small, Ken Crawford and Gordie Haddleton combined on a neat three-way passing play and Crawford deposited the puck in the twine for one of the classiest goals of the game.
No less than seven goals were scored in the final frame, five by Stouffville and two by Orillia. Haddleton took only 45 seconds to score his first goal of the game but the Pontiacs rallied and notched two in a row. Graham scored from MacDonald and Nelson at 1.17 and Pearsall fired the Pontiacs final goal from Payne.
Geo. Stark, Gordie Haddleton, frank Stephenson and Ken McNeil completed the rout with goals in quick succession. The most spectacular effort was the tally by rightwinger Frank Stephenson who up a perfect pass from Eddie Crust and raced in from enter ice with nobody to beat the goaltender. The hard-driving forward veered sharply to the left in a typical Rocket Richard move and sifted the puck into the open corner.
The game was cleanly played with only seven penalties being handed out, four to Stouffville and three to Orillia. Lloyd Pearsall received a double minor for interference and cross checking the official. The victory moved Bob Bangay’s squad to within two points of the front-running Pontiacs CLIPPERS BEAT NEWMARKET WITH FIRST PERIOD DRIVE
Stouffville Clippers continued to send the partisan Newmarket fans home shaking their heads on Thursday night of last week as Bob Bangay’s boys downed the Redmen 8-6 in their own home rink. So far this season the Clippers have a big edge in the win column in games played at Newmarket. The same story is true for Newmarket when they come here.

Garth Brubacher’s Boston Bruins upset the Black Hawks 4-2 and Montreal Canadiens edged the Rangers 5-1 with a startling reversal of form. It marked the first time in four games that the Canadiens were able to score on a rival team. In the final contest of the evening Barry Wilkes’ Maple Leafs trimmed Ed. Dawson’s Red Wings 7-1.
McMullen Stars in Goal
Goalkeeper Lynn McMullen turned in a brilliant performance in the nets for the Montreal Canadiens in the opening game. In the closing minutes of the contest the Rangers put on a terrific drive to even the core but they could not beat the padded puck-stopper. His team mates congratulated him on his fine performance when the final whistle sounded. Rangers jumped into a 1-0 lead early in the game when Billy Holden blinked the light with a close in drive. Centreman Ross Pattenden of Canadiens tied the score a few minutes later and Montreal defenceman Glenn Pennanen made it 3-1 with two goals in a row.

Ross Pattenden sewed up the contest for Montreal with his second tally of the game. With only a minute remaining in the game, Glen Barkey broke free from centre ice and made no mistake with a low shot into the corner for the final Ranger tally.
Betz Saves Boston
A goalkeeper proved to be the hero in the second game as Boston beat the Black Hawks 4-2. Marvin Betz, playing his first year in peewee competition, was practically unbeatable in the Bruins net . He displayed reckless courage in blocking such Black Hawk speedsters as Harry Harper, Ron Stewart, Wayne Pennanen and Warren Hendricks. The Hawks struck fast in the opening minutes of the game as forwards Warren Hendricks and Ron Stewart combined to notch two neat goals. Hendricks scored the first one and Stewart made it 2-0 with a similar tally. From that point on however it was all Boston in the goal scoring department.
Joe Haylow broke the ice for the Bruins and Larry Malloy put both teams on even terms.

Keith Stewart, Gary Taylor and Peter Stover scored single goals.

LED BY REDSHAW, MIDGETS THUMP PICKERING 9-2

Stouffville made a runaway of the game in the final session as they counted 4 more goals. Wayne Redshaw fired two with Ross Madill and Steve Wideman notching singles. Barry Wilkes in the Flyers cage, although not overworked turned in a fine goaltending effort. He was given solid support by rearguards Stover, Jackson, Bellman, Sanders, McStravick and Malcolm. Both McStravick and Malcolm were used on defence and up front. Derek Chadwick handled the team from the box. Brooklin will be the visitors here on Thursday night. RED WINGS IN PENALTY-FILLED GAME
Aurora Bears scored a 6-3 victory over Stouffville Red Wings in a penalty filled Junior ‘D’ game played here on Thursday night. A total of fifty-four minutes in penalties were handed out by the officials. The Red Wings topped the parade as fourteen players were thumbed to the cooler, while Aurora had thirteen men spend time in the detention box. Harold Hodgson the best on the ice for Stouffville was also the most penalized Red Wing. He spent ten minutes in the sin-bin. Delbert Storie, rugged Aurora defenceman, was also penalized on five occasions.
Aurora struck hard in the opening minutes of the first period and notched two quick goals. Grant Edwards produced both tallies. Harold Hodgson, a two-goal man for Stouffville, fired his first at 9.10 on a pass from Jake Harmon. Murray Chapman made it 3-1 for the Yonge Street crew.
The Bears lengthened their lead to three goals at 1.08 of the second frame with Bill Egan scoring unassisted. Stouffville defenceman Ted Mendyk and Tip Vipond combined on the Red Wings second goal and Harold Hodgson put Stouffville back in the game with a blueline slap shot that caught the corner of the Aurora cage. Goals by Earl Lothian and Danny Patrick sewed up the contest for the visitors.
Harold Hodgson, Jim Rennie and Tip Vipond looked best for Stouffville. Danny Patrick was Aurora’s number one star.
The Red Wings had a good portion of the play but as in previous games they could not produce the necessary goals. Their shooting appeared to be erratic and weak. Aurora on the other hand played good combination and took advantage of their scoring opportunities.
Don MacIntosh Clipper defenceman is setting a terrific pace in the individual sowing race the Stouffville rear guard has scored seven goals and collected nineteen assists for a total of 2g points this is three points better than his nearest rival rightwinger Frank Stephenson who has 23 Stephenson leads in the goal scoring department with sixteen.

by Jim Thomas “ROUGH STUFF‘ ON WAY OUT
Wild hockey free-for-alls appear to be thing of the past. A few years ago in almost every type of hockey it seemed unlikely that a game could be completed unless every player on the club participated in a large scale brawl. It may be (in Sr. ‘B‘ hockey a least) that the players obtain more common sense with age or it may b that they can’t afford to take the risk of getting injured with a flying stick or skate. So far, throughout the entire season there has only been one outbreak of violence here when Gordie Haddleton of the Clippers and Ab Bowen of Orillia mixed it up but they cooled out before any real damage was done. In the Junior games here, many of the contests have been marred by penalties but none of a free-for-all nature. There have been more brawls in N.H.L. games this season but after all those players are paid good salaries and a week layoff due to injuries does not hurt their pocket book to any extent. The majority of fans attend hockey came to see hockey and not wrestling or boxing matches. Spectators at Clipper games cannot complain this season of any undue “rough stuff” on the part of the Stouffville players. MAY PROMOTE CURLING HERE
Curling may be the coming sport to the Stouffville Arena. Interested sports enthusiasts judge that there are between fifty and seventy-five local residents who would support the opening of a curling club here. It is of course too late this season to promote such an organization but now is the time to prepare for next winters schedule. Some fifteen or twenty years ago Stouffville had a flourishing curling club headed by such men as Harry Sanders, Cliff Pipher, Bill Armstrong, Bill Sanders, Fred and Ernie Button, Bill McNair and many others. As in past years, bonspeils could be arranged between towns. Stouffville ice surface is almost perfectly level, a necessity for good curling. Get that tam our of moth balls fellows, and grab yourself a broom ‘cause curling is on the way. HOCKEY CROWDS IMPROVING
An increase in attendance at recent Stouffville Clipper hockey games has been quite noticeable. Early in the season the crowds had slipped considerably as compared with last year but interest appears to be on the upswing again as the playoffs draw near. It would seem that the Stouffville Arena is much better off financially than many other rinks in the district. A report from Bowmanville shows Arena hockey receipts to be down $1,100 from the same time last winter. The same is true for other rinks. One thing is sure, in Stouffville, the brand of hockey displayed by our local Clippers is as good or better than any you’ll find in the area. A hockey club never expects to line its pockets during the regular schedule rather they hope for an even break. It’s during the playoffs that the gate receipts tend to bring a club out of the red. At the present time the prayer of the Arena Management is that Stouffville can knock off both Orillia and Newmarket and enter the first round of the senior playoffs. It looks like a tight race. SKATING TEACHERS
On Friday evening the Stouffville District High School held a skating party at Cesarean. About one hundred and fifty students joined in the winter get-together, many skating for the first time at the favourite open air centre. A noticeable feature of the night was the fine representation of High School Staff teachers. Those in attendance were Principal O. E. Robbins, Miss Lintier, Mr. Marshall and Mr. Hammond. They joined in with the students for an evening of fun and good fellowship. Like the rest of the skaters they also enjoyed their share of hot coffee and doughnuts. AROUND THE RINK

CLIPPERS DROP OVERTIME CONTEST TO NEWMARKET
Stouffville Clippers have had little luck against Newmarket here this season, in fact they have managed to win only one game against the Redmen. Up in a Newmarket, the Canaltown crew have been faced with the same jinx having scored only one victory against Bob Bangay’s squad.
It was Ron Scarcello’s goal at 5.46 of the overtime period that proved to be the winner for Herbie Cain and Company. The win vaulted the visitors into a first place tie with Orillia and shoved Stouffville into cellar four points behind. There was no scoring in the first period. It took Newmarket than a minute to register first goal of the game in second session as Gord Boniface deflected MacDougal’s pass into the Clipper cage. Geo. Hearn made it 2-0 for the Redmen at 4.45 before the Clippers could break the ice.
Midway through the period Ken McNeill put Stouffville in the game with Hal Gibson and Geo. Stark picking up on the play. Ken Sinclair nullified McNeill’s goal on a pass from wingman Russ Brankston. Hal Gibson, Stouffville’s most consistent marksman, put the Clippers back in game with veteran Geo. Stark setting up the play.
When half the spectators were ready to leave the arena, coach Bob Bangay yanked goalie Rhodes from the cage ad threw six forwards into the fray. the strategy paid off as Elwood Small hit the twine with assists going to Gordie Haddleton and Chick Webster. In the ten-minute overtime period, Ron Scarcello for the second time this season threw cold water on Stouffville’s hopes of catching up with the league leaders, as he beat Rhodes with the winning tally. In the dying minutes of the overtime, Geo. Stark came within an ace of splitting the points but his drive missed the net. The largest crowd of the season witnessed the thrilling battle. BROOKLIN AND GEORGETOWN WIN MIDGET & JR. GAMES
Thursday evening was a bad night for Stouffville hockey teams. Both the Midgets and the Juniors went down to defeat at the hands of visiting clubs. In the first game the powerful Brooklin Midgets stepped into town and handed the local Flyers a 6-3 setback and in the second contest Georgetown scored a 5-2 victory over Stouffville’s Junior Red Wings.
In the Midget game, Russ Madill put Stouffville in the lead with a goal in the first period. Brooklin staged a three- goal rally in the second frame and outscored the local squad 3-2 in the final session. Jones with two goals was the leading marksman for the visitors with Pascoe and McDuff firing singles. Don Haynes and Wayne Redshaw blinked the light for Stouffville in the last period.
Don Haynes speedy Stouffville forward, spent fourteen minutes of the game in the penalty box. He was banished with charging and interference and the referee tacked on a ten-minute misconduct. Haynes outscored the wings 3-1.
Geo. Grasby of Georgetown notched the first tally of the at 4.30 but Jim Rennie put both teams on even terms on a pass from John Tran. From that point on however, Georgetown were the masters in the goal scoring department. Geo. Haines scored twice and R. Webster hit the net for two goals. Defenceman Ted Mendyk blinked the light from Harmon for Stouffville’s second tally. There were twenty-three penalties in the game. Two were majors and one a misconduct. LEAFS TOP RANGERS IN PEEWEE CONTEST
Barry Wilkes’ Maple Leafs continue to set fast pace in the Lions Peewee League as they chalked their seventh straight victory on Saturday afternoon. The 1st place team soundly whipped the New York Rangers 6-1. In the other games, the Hawks downed Canadiens by the identical score of 6-1 and Boston and Detroit battled to a 1-1 deadlock.
Larry McMullen and Don Eddington were the top marksmen, Both scored two with Gary Taylor and Rick Wedseltoft notching singles. Gary Baston fired the lone Ranger tally Larry McMullen scored the nicest goal of the game as he stickhandled through the entire New York team. Don Eddington’s first goal was on a breakaway. Brian although not too busy in the Toronto cage, pulled off spectacular stop on Ranger Gary Baston midway through the game. He was strong support by his defence.
In the Black Hawk-Canadien contest Harold Harper scored three goals and picked up two assists as the Hawks defeated Montreal 6-1. Wayne Pennanen fired the lone Canadien tally.
Ron Stewart and Warren Hendricks, first line forwards, with the Hawks looked good although they didn’t participate in the scoring. Lynn McMullen turned in a fine performance in the net for the Montrealers.
In the final game of the afternoon, Garth Brubacher’s Boston Bruins didn’t play up to their usual form and had to be satisfied with a 1-1 tie with Ed Dawson’s Red Wings. Bob hall blinked the light for Boston with Watson firing the lone Detroit tally. Both clubs were evenly matched. Mike Epworth, Joe Haylow and Larry Malloy looked best for Boston. George Malcolm was the top Red Wing performer. ORILLIA ORDERED TO PAY $50. BY O.H.A
Mr. Derelyn Valley, Manager of the Orillia Pontiac’s was hauled up on the carpet by the OHA on Friday for failing to pay travelling expenses to the Clippers as was promised earlier in the season. Stouffville was represented by Messrs. Tim O’Neill and W.T. Rennie. The Pontiac management was in debt to Stouffville for two trips made to the Couchiching centre. They had to pay fifty dollars, $25.00 for each trip. Manager Valley stated that due to a decrease in attendance his club could not afford to meet the pre-arranged expense. RED WINGS THUMP MIDLAND 8-2
Stouffville Red Wings came up with their most impressive game of the season on Monday night as they thumped Midland 8-2. Harvey Roberts was the top marksman for the winners with four goals.

Preparations are being made to enter a Peewee team from Stouffville in the Goderich Lions tournament during the Easter Holidays. VETERANS COME THROUGH
Stouffville’s hockey veterans have been mainly responsible for any success the Clippers might have enjoyed so far this season. Although many believed these stars who have performed under the Clipper colours since Bob Bangay took over the coaching duties a number of years ago were “over the hill”, they have repeatedly proved these pessimists to be wrong. On the other hand some of the new additions to the team have not produced the way it was hoped they might. Nick Dubik, the Niagara Falls “flash” has with the exception of one game produced nothing in the way of needed goals. It was thought he might set the league on fire, but so far such has not been the case. Players like Hal Gibson, Geo. Stark, Frank Stephenson, Jack Rhodes, Bert Baker and some others have been more than holding their own. WELCOME BACK NICK
On Saturday night. Stouffville hockey fans welcomed Nick Bangay back to the Clipper lineup. Although used sparingly in his initial start with the club he will see more action as he rounds into condition. Nick has always been one of the most popular players on the team and has contributed much to Senior hockey in Stouffville. When the Clippers were a goal down in an important game, Nick could always be counted on to come through with the tying tally. Fans will always remember his never-say-die spirit and he will certainly be a welcomed addition to the lineup. A friendly fellow both on and off the ice, Nick will always be regarded as this town’s number one hockey competitor. CLIPPERS BLANK PONTIACS 4-0
Putting on one of their hockey displays of the season Stouffville clippers blanked Orillia Pontiacs 4-0 on Saturday night before a good crowd of enthusiastic home town rooters. iI marked the first shutout racked up by the Clippers this season and only the second chalked up in the local Sr.group. Terry Sye, sub goal-tender returned to active service with the homesters and showed no signs of “puck jitters” since his twenty-three stitch injury suffered more than a month ago. Although not overworked, he came up with a number of good stops when Orillia forced the play inside the Stouffville blueline.
Besides the steady performance of Sye in the Clipper cage, Stouffville looked especially good in two other departments. Their five-man defensive force of Bert Baker, Don MacIntosh, Joe Scatalon, Ed Calhoun and Nick Bangay took the steam out of the rugged Orillia attackers and provided goalie Sye with good rearguard protection. The forward line of Gordie Haddleton, Hal Gibson and Elwood Small was flying both ways and accounted for two of Stouffville’s four tallies.
Defenceman Joe Scatalon started the ball rolling for Stouffville at 3.38 of the first period. At 7.10 Elwood Small, the star of the game, notched the first of his two goals on passes from Gibson and Haddleton and four minutes later Small struck again with Ed Calhoun picking up an assist. There were four penalties in the first session, Stephenson and MacIntosh of the Clippers and Bain and Shewchuk for Orillia. There was no scoring in the second period.
In the third session the Clippers continued to hold an advantage in territorial play, the Haddleton, Gibson, Small line literally burned up the ice every time out. Midway through the period they cut in on the Orillia net with a perfect three-way passing play arid although both Small and the puck ended up in the Pontiac cage, Referee Crombie disallowed and claimed the player had dragged it in on his skate.
The penalties in the game were unusually few. Stouffville’s Joe Scatalon and Orillia’s Lloyd Pearsall were banished following a high sticking duel. Following the set-to Scatalon tried desperately to get another crack at his adversary but Hal Gibson acting in the role of peacemaker stepped the two and held them at bay until they had a chance to cool off.
While Scatalon and Pearsall were sitting out their time in the cooler, Ken McNeil, hard working Stouffville playmaker, slapped Eddie Crust’s pass into the net for the final goal of the game.
Don MacIntosh was a standout on defence for Stouffville. Fans welcomed Nick Bangay back to the Clipper line-up. In his first game of the season he looked good although used sparingly.
Stouffville move up to Orillia on Friday night of this week and then entertain Newmarket here on Saturday. A double victory would move them right back into first place contention. RANGERS EDGE BRIUNS 3-2 IN PEEWEE GAME
Bill Lennox’ New York Rangers took over sole possession of third place in the Lions Peewee League as they squeezed out a close -32 over Garth Brubacher’s Boston Bruins. The Ranger victory boosted the club back into third place and dropped Boston into the fourth position.
The contest was a nip and tuck battle all the way. Goals by Gary Baston and Doug Allman for New York and tallies by Mike Epworth and Joe Haylow for the Bruins put both clubs on even terms. With less than five minutes remaining in the contest, centreman Gary Baston broke free and beat goalie Betz with a low drive to the bottom corner. The Bruins pressed their attack but could not split the points.
Larry McMullen staged a dazzling one-man performance for Barry Wilkes’ Toronto Maple Leafs. The speedy defenceman scored two goals as his team edged Montreal 2-1. Jimmy Wagg notched the lone tally for the Canadiens.
McMullen’s speed and stick- handling ability was too much for his rival wing men and he gave brother Lynn a busy time in the Canadien’s net. At the other end of the arena Brian Wilkes turned in a good game in the Leaf’s net. He blocked both Ross Pattenden and Glenn Pennanen with fine saves.
In the other game of the afternoon the powerful Chicago Black Hawks soundly trounced Detroit 5-1 to keep pace with the front-running Leafs. Ron Stewart was the top Hawk marksman scoring two goals. Warren Hendricks, Jim Gardiner and Bryce Spencer notched the others. Bill Hoover scored the lone Detroit tally. HAYNES SCORES SIX IN PLAYOFF OPENER
Stouffville Midgets soundly trounced Uxbridge 15-1 Thursday night to take a one-game lead in their best of five play off series. Don Haynes was the top marksman for the Flyers, scoring six goals and picking up three assists. Wayne Redshaw notched four goals, Murray Holden two, Ross Madill two and Mike McStravick one. Ferguson scored the lone Uxbridge tally.
Stouffville took a commanding 7-1 lead in the first period. They added three in the second and five more in the final period. The Flyers scored the most goals and also ran into the most penalties. Eight Stouffville players spent time in the cooler while Uxbridge were penalized on only one occasion. RED WINGS EDGE UNIONVILLE 4-3 IN THRILL-PACKED GAME
Stouffville Red Wings scored their first victory of the season over the Unionville Jets on Thursday night as they edged Ernie Lawrie’s squad 4-3 in a thrilling Junior ‘D’ contest. The local team appeared to have the contest sewn up at the midway mark in the final period when Doug Forfar, Dave Hammersley, John Tran and Ted Mendyk put the Red Wings on the top end of a 4-0 score. Unionville staged a three-goal rally in the third period in an attempt to pull the game out of the fire but their attack fell one goal short of splitting the points. John Darbyson broke the ice for the Jets at 9.33 on passes from Les Jarvis and Bruce McDowell. McDowell notched Unionville’s second tally unassisted with a quick corner drive with less than three minutes remaining in the game. Don McCurdy cut in fast on left wing and slapped a shot off goalie Bruce Middelton’s pads into the twine. Stouffville battled desperately to successfully hang onto their one goal lead.
For fifty minutes of the game the Red Wings looked considerably stronger than on previous occasions when Unionville were the visitors here. They fore-checked their rivals on every move and didn’t allow the Jets to get organized. However, in the final ten minutes of the contest Manager Grant Nighswander threw his “Big Line” of Darbyson, McDowell and Atkinson out onto the ice with orders to cut down the Stouffville lead. They took the offensive away from the Red Wings and came within an ace of tying the score. Bob Atkinson actually netted the fourth Unionville goal but the referee ruled the puck was kicked over the crease and disallowed the tally. The game was cleanly played. CLIPPERS SCORING PARADE

Stouffville Athletic Club can draw real satisfaction from their efforts in minor hockey circles this season. While their Juvenile entry failed to go farther than the group crown, it’s the first season that a definite O.M.H.A. schedule has been carried through and successfully handled, for which a big share of the credit goes to Coach Murray Holden and Manager Jim Austin. It’s a big drain on funds operating minor teams, when it is remembered that up until playoff time, gate receipts are practically nil. Then when one is successful to win through, spring approaches and ice becomes the problem. LOCAL JUVENILES OUT OF PLAYOFF RACE
Stouffville Juveniles dropped a 7-4 decision to Uxbridge on Tuesday night here to be eliminated from the O.M.H.A. playoff race. Uxbridge took the first game 14-7 to take the round 21-11.
Uxbridge took command of the game in the second period, after a scoreless first frame, ramming in four goals with only one reply from Stouffville. Pollard, Colbeck, Lee and Smith were the visiting marksmen, with Burkholder scoring the lone Stouffville tally.
The Stouffville line-up never gave up, despite the fact the visitors practically cinched the round in the second period. They battled all the way, but victory as always, had to ultimately go to the better team.
There were nine penalties meted out by referee Jim Granger of Richmond Hill, five to Stouffville and four to Uxbridge.
Ron Smith was a standout in the nets for Stouffville, and was responsible for keeping the score as close as it was. MARKHAM PADDLE WAY TO 4-0 WIN OVER CLIPPERS
Markham Millionaires literally paddled their way to a 4-0 win over Stouffville Clippers on Friday night, before another packed house in Markham Arena. Despite the fact that the Clippers outshot Markham 34 to 23, and held them to four “Scoops” at Harper in the last period, the Millionaires displayed more finesse around the goal, that capitalized on four of their scoring chances.
The game was fought out in water from the starting bell, and ”lakes” widened and deepened as the game progressed. It became a neat trick by both teams to spray water in the opposition’s face and then skate away with the puck while he was trying to regain his vision.
Markham’s win was backed to a large degree by the spectacular work of Frank Carr in the net. The Clippers poured an incessant stream of water and rubber in his direction, but through it all he held firm.
Thirteen minutes of scoreless hockey was played before Brennan, finally sloshed the puck in the Clipper net. He repeated the process three minutes later, this time picking the offside of the net neatly from a difficult angle.
Stouffville had a definite edge in territorial play up to this point, but couldn’t beat Carr, however these two tallies sparked the Millionaires, who took charge of the game in the second period. Shots on goal in the mid-session were 9 for Markham and 8 for Stouffville.
The Clippers scored the third Markham goal themselves, tipping in a shot from Nesbitt’s stick. At the 6 minute mark, Geo. Scott added the final tally on a screened shot as he fed a passout to the blue line.
Play see-sawed for the balance of the period. At one juncture Jack Watson broke in the clear at centre and coasted in on Harper all alone, only to have the puck stop on a big pool of water.
Gord Lewis playing the game with a broken hand taped up, was forced out of the Stouffville line-up when a flying puck hit the injured member, and further dislocated the bone.
In contrast to the rough-house tactics displayed by the teams in the previous two meetings, Friday night’s game was quite clean, and exceptionally so, considering the condition of the ice.
The big crowd seemed to draw more delight as the game continued over who could succeed in giving the other the most ducking than the hockey that was being played. Rail seat customers were continually doused with waves of icy water, as players scrambled for the puck along the boards. O.H.A. CRACKS DOWN OVER WATERY ICE — COULD HAVE BEEN AT MARKHAM
Officials of the Kitchener-Waterloo Flying Dutchman of the OHA senior series said last week the the Ontario Association has promised to take action in regard to the playing conditions at the Hamilton Arena.
Let’s not cry now, but the Clippers should never have set foot on Markham ice on Friday night because of the condition it was in. The referee would certainly have to back Stouffville’s complaint to the O.H.A. with the ice swimming in water even before the game got underway.
Following their 3-2 defeat in overtime in Hamilton on Wednesday, the Dutchmen complained to the O.H.A, about the watery condition of the Hamilton ice.
OHA headquarters informed Coach Scherer that the OHA would send a man to Hamilton to see that the ice-making machine in the arena there is turned on and kept on.An OHA official said that Toronto Marlboros had made the same complaint last year about playoff ice conditions and that the association was determined to see that they did not continue, Scherer reported.
“We made no official protest but I believe that it is unfair to the public to ask them to pay good money to see hockey played under the conditions prevailing at Hamilton on Wednesday,” K-W. officials added.

CLIPPERS EVEN PLAYOFF SERIES WITH MARKHAM
Stouffville Clippers bounced back on even terms with Markham Millionaires in their O.H.A. Intermediate ‘A’ hockey playoff by downing Markham 5-4 at Oshawa on Tuesday night. Markham won the opener of the best-of-five series 4-0.
Both teams played a fast-skating wide-open game, calling on both Carr and harper to pull off some really phenomenal saves in the nets.
Markham took the lead half way through the first period on a goal by Brennan. Geo Rumney evened the score for Stouffville at 12.29, and two minutes later brother jack Rumney put the Clippers out in front 2-1.
Markham’s tying counter at 6.15 of the second period was nearly a heart-breaker for Stouffville as Jack Rumney accidentally tipped the puck into his own net when attempting to clear. Routcliffe was credited with the goal.
Markham held the edge in territorial play in the early stages of the game, but Stouffville overcame their usual second period slump, and scored three times without a reply from the Millionaires. Bradbury put the Clippers ahead again at 8.16, while Geo.Rumney and Bob Lawrie added two more at 18.20 With Smith serving an interference penalty for Stouffville, Brennan scored his second goal of the night at 19.45, to end the period 5-3.
Clark for Stouffville went to the penalty bench as the final twenty minutes got underway and at 3.15 Milroy tallied Markham’s final goal.
Markham tried desperately to even the score, and kept the Clippers continually bottled up in their own end. Stouffville clung to their narrow margin and Carr in Markham’s cage was given a comparatively east time in the last period.
The Markham goalie was pulled out of the game with only seconds left, but the Clippers held on.
Their were eight penalties in the game, four for each club. While the infractions were not serious, they were foolish and costly, two goals resulting when the teams were short-handed.
Don Campbell replaced injured Gord Lewis on the Stouffville defence, which was the only line-up change on either team.
The series will resume in Oshawa this Thursday and Saturday night. BADMINTON CLUB
On Friday evening a Badminton Club will be organized at the Veterans’ hall with the meeting beginning at 7.30 o’clock. Those interested are anxious to have a good attendance, probably a little playing. The floor is ready, so don’t overlook the date, this Friday.

General Motors car agencies in Markham and Stouffville took advantage of the recent hockey series to advertise their product and render a real service at the same time. Thursday night’s game was broadcast over station CKDO through the courtesy of Conlin Motors, Markham, while Saturday night’s final was brought to listeners by Bill Ball Motors, Stouffville. CLIPPERS BOW OUT OF O.H.A.PLAYOFF PICTURE
Markham Millionaires captured their OHA Intermediate ‘A’ group championship at Oshawa on Saturday night when they whipped their arch rivals, Stouffville Clippers, 7-2. Victory ended the best -of-five series in the fourth game. Clipper won only the second game.
Showing an edge in speed and defence superiority in playing position and passing attack, the Clippers were right in the running until Markham drew penalties in the second period. Stouffville enjoyed an edge in territorial play but the inability of their individual players to handle the puck when stick-handling, or to get away good shots when in position proved their downfall.
Markham’s Brennan-Singleton combination was again the Millionaires sure-fire- goal-getters. Singleton scored two and assisted on two more. Brennan assisted on two and scored one, while Milroy scored another.
It was a bang-up hockey for a period and a half when a foolish fracas started in the corner which resulted in four major penalties and one misconduct. There were no penalties up until this point, but en less than sixteen were chalked up after.
Keith Jewett was one of the top men on the ice for v and dumped his team’s first goal behind goalie Frank Carr. Johnston combined with Smith and Clark for the Clippers’ other counter.
Stouffville played minus Ross Hochberg, who was ill. The largest crowd of the series was on hand, near 3,000. O.H.A. DECISION ON PROTESTS SLATED FOR TUESDAY
A protest was filed by Stouffville Intermediate Hockey Club against Markham Hockey Club claiming ineligibility do an markham player. The protest was in the hands of the O.H.A. following the first game of the recently completed series.
A representative of the Markham Executive informed The Tribune that a counter protest covering what in hockey circles, is known as the “six-player rule”, was being filed against Stouffville by Markham.
The verdict of the O.H.A. Protest Board is expected Tuesday afternoon. CLIPPERS AND MILLIONAIRES BOTH DECLARED INELIGIBLE
Stouffville Clippers and Markham Millionaires were declared “disqualified” by O.H.A. Protest Committee, meeting in special session at the Royal York Hotel on Tuesday. Both Clubs are barred from further competition in the O.H.A. this season. The O.H.A. declaration follows a double protest received from the two clubs.
Basis for the decision of the O.H.A. was the failure of either team to operate within the “six player rule.” This rule states that every O.H.A. club, with the exception of Junior ‘A’ and Senior ‘A’ must have six players from the municipality which they represent, and these players must play every game.
The best, either local club could show the Protest Board as homebrews, was two players, thus the powers that be, had no alternative than to enforce the rule when called upon by each club to do so. The six-player rule has been a bone of contention ever since its introduction several years ago, and may yet be hoisted from the books, if enough clubs vote to do so at next autumns annual get-together. The rule is definitely a barrier to smaller communities entering O.H.A. clubs. It could be replaced by a mileage limit to ease the situation.
It’s unfortunate that this year’s O.H.A. hockey should end in a protest bout between two local clubs. The move by the Stouffville Club did not meet with the approval of all concerned. Supporters of both teams have found their interest waning in the constant bickering, and bitterness both by fans and players. “it’s really a shame,” one Markham fan stated to this reporter during Saturday night’s fiasco, “when two groups of young men, allow themselves to be so stirred up by over-zealous fans, that they can’t control themselves any better than they are doing.” Its earnestly hoped by those hundreds who wish to see both places prosper in the hockey world, that this year’s “fussin” may be forgotten, so that another season will not find either town lacking in organizers of good hockey entertainment.
While we consider the recent Intermediate playoff series capably handled by the two city referees sent from Toronto to Oshawa for the job, a rare penalty did arise during Saturday night’s squabble, which has been pointed out as error. Six major penalties were handed out in the game, four of these coming together following a second period brawl, involving Perry and Carr of Markham, and Sluce and Jewett of Stouffville
Carr, the Markham goalie left his net to engage in the fisticuffs in the corner, and was given a five-minute major penalty which was served by Linton, a Markham forward. Major penalties for goalkeepers are not found in the rule book, but under sec. 32, a penalty shot shall be awarded against him for such an offence, not a replacement penalty — just a point of interest.
The Athletic Club urgently requests the several bantam baseball players who have uniforms in their possession, to turn outfits in immediately to Joe Oulette, so they can be cleaned and made ready, come next summer.
Powassan dumped Uxbridge from the OMHA Juvenile playoffs over the weekend. Uxbridge youngsters have done well, being in their fourth playoff round. They defeated Stouffville, Lakefield, and Stirling before bowing out.
Stouffville Peewees took Unionville into camp 6-1 and 7-1, in a home and home series last week. The pint-sized hockey players put on quite a rousing exhibition, and under the guidance of Joe Oulette looked like sure starters in Minor Bantam next winter.
Unionville mutuals, contenders in their O.H.A. Junior ‘C’ hockey finals dropped their first game with Weston 7-4 in Unionville on Thursday night. Due to lack of ice, the second game has been moved to Oshawa, where it will be played this Wednesday night.
There’s a difference between a ‘best-of-three” series and “two-out-of-three” series in O.H.A. playoff hockey. Whitby Intermediate ‘A’s and Oakville have been engaging in a “best-of-three” series. This is a series for points. It is figured on the basis of two points for a win and one point for a tie so that if one of the teams wins one and ties two they will have four points to the other’s two and they will go on, eliminating the necessary fourth game.
Only two “outside”rinks, entries from Stouffville and Unionville competed in the section playoffs of the Ontario Colts Bonspeil eliminations, held at Oshawa Curling Club on Wednesday. Both foursomes were knocked off in the first round leaving the field strictly Oshawa city affair. The local contingent was skipped by Donald Hodgins with Gar Lehman, C. Brillinger and R. Mills; they lost 13-3 to Les Eveniss’ Motor City quartette. Al Morrison’s Oshawa rink captured the district honours. CLIPPERS GO TO AURORA FRIDAY
Stouffville Clippers will visit Aurora this Friday night for a benefit game with Yonge St. all-star team, if ice is available. The game is a benefit game in aid of the Legion Hall project in that town, and should draw considerable attendance.

HOCKEY HERE FRIDAY NIGHT
Toronto Meteor will visit Stouffville for an exhibition hockey game with the Clippers this Friday night, Mar. 18th.
Stouffville Clippers took their two exhibition games last week by wide margins, downing the T.H.L. Maple Leafs by 15-7 here on Tuesday night night, and the Aurora Intermediate All-Stars 19-4 on Friday night.
Stouffville Peewees came out on top in another exhibition tilt on Monday night, downing Agincourt 4-3
Members of the Stouffville Clippers, their wives and lady friends, enjoyed a social get together at the Hollywood, out in Toronto’s Queensway, on Saturday evening.
Hold it just a minute — we find Markham press reports last week “challenging” the O.H.A. chiefs over their actions in the recent Stouffville-Markham protest case. Just bear in mind that it’s not the men who sit around the Board table who put the rules in the book, but representatives from clubs such as Markham and Stouffville. In the same manner as these rules were voted into the book, in a like manner, rules can be amended or written out of the book.
Markham should have known that to commit a crime several times and get away with it, is no defence when once you’re caught.
We took the same stand last year when to many it appeared that Stouffville was on the “short end of the stick.” Since we happened to be one of the minority who bitterly apposed the move of his home club in laying a protest, we feel that we can speak freely.
As to the contention that a large number of O.H.A. teams do not abide by the side-player rule — this could be correct, but, it seems strange, that if the rule is so flouted there are not more protests. Certainly teams in their own group would have a pretty own group would have a pretty good idea as to whether or not their competitors had six home town players or not.
Bitterness is very prevalent in Markham, and must be expected. There are many fans even in the Stouffville camp who counted on seeing Markham in action again against some of the outstanding Intermediate teams. It was said by “Tiny” McFadyen, O.H.A. president, that even had Stouffville not protested, some other club would have done so. That still doesn’t altogether justify Stouffville’s action — however, there is no question that had some other club, rather than the Clippers, protested Markham’s status with the same results, the bitterness would have been much less. The fact that Stouffville even entered the Intermediate hockey circle dominated by Markham for some seasons, has never taken too kindly by some Markham circles, and this fact only went further to fire Markham resentment.
As to “pointing the finger” at the Stouffville coach, regardless of his guilt or not, Markham could certainly not look for many favours from his corner after the “going over” he took all season from Markham supporters. It’s a late now to start reminding him of his “loyal home town.” While his services were not sought in Markham, there were those who apparently took grave exception to them being used elsewhere.
However, let’s not drag personalities into this discussion. We do agree with the Economist that the big job now is to arrange legislation that will give some relief to communities such as Markham and Stouffville, who want to put up good hockey, high-class hockey, something they’re entitled to just as much as the “big” town.
Some joker suggests that next season, a half dozen “cripples” could be signed up and used to cover the six-player rule. Such a loop-hole was plugged when the rule went into the books, as it requires that these six home town boys take part in every game. Only once in possibly twenty-five years could a town such as we’re interested in, ever had six players of their own, capable of playing Intermediate ‘A’ hockey. Rumour has it that Markham may resort to paying imports which would be one way of getting around it.
Another report from our neighbouring town is that they may take a leaf out of Stouffville’s Junior hockey book, and move their entry out into Markham Township, or Unionville so that they could command the services of the large number of eligible players in this area quite within the rules. Of course Stouffville hockey interests would be privileged to do the same.
Some suggest a mileage limit from which to draw players, while still another idea is to bar Toronto and its suburbs entirely, and throw the rural area open. At least the boys have until next fall to figure it out. Even if the rule is not entirely hoisted from the books, it’s sure in for some real going over, come the Convention.

LAST LOCAL TEAM PASSES FROM PLAYOFFS
District hockey has come to an abrupt halt, this season, and the last local aggression passed out of the picture on Thursday night. Unionville Juniors going down 5-1 in their group playoff with Weston. The two teams were all even on their best two-out-of-three O.H.A. playoff before Unionville’s defeat on Thursday.
It was anybody’s game for a period and a half. The clubs played to a scoreless draw in the first period, and half way through the second when Weston finally scored. less than a minute later Polly Minton waltzed in for Unionville and scored a neat sole effort.
This tying goal put Unionville right back into the game, but a penalty before the period ended, saw Weston on a ganging attack which finally paid off, to end the period with the visitors out in front 2-1.
Weston scored three more in the final frame though Unionville never gave up trying, and brought a roar from their supporters on numerous occasions, as they all but tipped the rubber into the net.
Crosby memorial Arena was packed for the final which was played on sticky ice. FISHING SEASONS
The wildfire branch of the Department of lands and Forests announced today that the Ontario trout season will open may 1 and Close Sept. 15, the same dates as last year.
The pickerel season starts May 16 and ends Dec. 31, while both the black bass and muskie seasons open July 1 and close Oct. 15.
Limit for trout is 20 fish a day or 10 pounds. JUNIOR ‘A’ WINS SPEEDY EX. GAME 7-6
Toronto’s Junior ‘A’ All-Star team copped a 7-6 victory over Stouffville Clippers on Monday night, in one of the peppiest hockey games played here this winter.
The Junior ‘A’ boys, players from all these “professional junior teams” recently eliminated in the playoffs race put up some real opposition for the Clippers, and the speed and passing was nice to watch.
the visitors took a 3-2 lead in the first period, Stouffville scorers being Hochberg, and Legge. The home team bounced back in the second, scoring four by Sluce, Clark and jack Rumney, with only a single reply from Toronto, making it 6-4.
With each team a man short in the last period, the All-Stars tied the count, and drove in the winning counter with less than five minutes remaining.
Bill Mulholland was in the net for Stouffville, and turned in a nice job. Bill hans’t had much chance to show his wares in his role as sub-goalie, but has given a good account of himself in the recent exhibition games.
The Junior’A’ line-up included Kewley and McCrone (Windsor Spitfires; Hill, Vosey, Palmer and Shaw (Guelph Blithers); Bell and Archer (Galt Red Wings); Williamson and Montgomery (Young Rangers).
The All-Stars are now working on a plan to bring Newmarket, Sutton, TorontoMeteors, Stouffville and themselves into a round-robin exhibition series, if the ice holds.
Markham Millionaires trounced the Toronto Junior ‘A’ All-Stars 9-4 in an exhibition game there on Saturday night. Bob Bangay, recently back from the Maritime Senior circuit was in the Markham line-up.

Markham Millionaires trounced the Toronto Junior ‘A’ All-Stars 9-4 in an exhibition game there on Saturday night. Bob Bangay, recently back from the Maritime Senior circuit was in the Markham line-up.
Stouffville Clippers were too much for Toronto Meteors in their exhibition game here on Friday night, and downed the city visitors 10-3. The game was played on the best ice of the season, but before a very small gathering. Norm Legge, George and Jack Rumney featured the Stouffville scoring. The locals took a 3-2 lead in the first period, increased it to 7-2 at the end of the second stanza and added another three to the Meteor’ one in the final period.
Newmarket sports columnists were hitting out high, wide and handsome last week at the O.H.A. for not having checked up on such hockey entries as Stouffville and Markham long ago. To quote: “Let’s not try and be so naive as to think that in other years the O.H.A. did not know what was going on equally as well as in March of ’49. can it be taken that the O.H.A. officials are so dumb that when Markham in Intermediate ‘A’ can measure four teams listed as Senior “b” and Stouffville almost do likewise, that they do not consider some investigation or re-classification is necessary? It’s been under their noses, especially in the case of Markham these many years. While the Millionaires and Clippers can be blamed for perhaps being over-ambitious, the actual blame must go back to the O.H.A. themselves.”
Reports of a possible protest against Weston Juniors now in the O.H.A. Ontario playdowns have apparently fallen through. Weston ousted Unionville in two straight games, and then disposed of Preston in a like manner. According to Unionville sources, the club there learned of certain irregularities regarding the residence of Weston players, but too late for a protest. Unionville made their finding known to the Preston Club, but they themselves admitted that they were not adhering to the rues either and couldn’t afford to protest anyone else. So the Weston team go merrily on, perhaps to a Junior ‘C’ title. LET’S GET RIGHT INTO IT
The Stouffville Athletic Club is slated to meet shortly and their intention for the coming baseball season will likely come up for discussion. It is hoped and expected that the local baseball backers will not fool away ant time this year in getting immediately into the Intermediate Tri-County O.B.A. setup. The Tri-County boys are said to be more than anxious to have Stouffville put in an entry so that their league can be split into north and south divisions. A Stouffville entry would likely be lined up with Sutton, Port Perry and Sunderland. While the Tri-County league may not produce an Ontario championship squad, it would certainly give the fans more interest, and see larger crowds both from home and from other possible entrants listed above. After all, bringing in a bunch if “world-beaters” from outside, just for the sake of trying to cop a championship won’t find much competition in a local league, and that’s what we want. Let’s field a good average team of local lads, and with good coaching they’ll produce a good show for summer. MUNICIPAL ARENA SCHEME
A movement is underway to interest a number of prominent businessmen and organizations in town towards calling a public meeting with a view to appointing a representative committee to interview the municipal council regarding the purchase of the local arena. The present owner and manager, Mr. Baker, is very interested in disposing of the building and has put a fair price on it. Certainly this community doesn’t want to be without a rink, and it would appear that the time is ripe for the community to own its own arena. Once the purchase is affected by the town, a move will be made to remodel the building, and install artificial ice. The size and construction of the arena has already been okayed by the Canadian Ice Machine Co. as suitable for an artificial plant. While numerous towns, not much larger than Stouffville have gone into the artificial ice business, and new rinks costing over $100,000, the project for Stouffville would amount to less than $50,000. The idea is a good one — boost it — don’t knock it. THANK THIS MAN
The hockey season has been wound up locally, and while it did not end as auspiciously as it began, hockey fans here enjoyed a good season of sport and a big share of the credit must go to Manager Bert Bell of the Clippers. Bell worked “like a horse” in providing hockey here this winter. He was practically a “one-man executive” so far as the actual work was concerned, and even came in for his share of carrying the sticks and water pail. Last fall when it looked like Stouffville hockey entry would go up the boards for want of a manager, Bert stepped in the breach, and while he possibly hand’t operated the club according to everyone’s wishes, who could? Bert is a real community booster and our hat is off to him for a good job done.

The enthusiastic badminton club recently organized here and numbering nearly sixty members is said to be interested in hard topping the local tennis courts to continue their club thus during the summer months. Members are said to have agreed that they would put up to the tune of $5 each to start the ball rolling. In addition to tennis, such a hard-top would come mighty handy when it comes to street dances and other outdoor concerts. The Stouffville Lions Club have new baseball bleachers on hand for the park, and also expect to take up the tennis court job in a future season, unless some other organization picks it up the meantime. ATHLETIC CLUB ANNUAL MEETING THURSDAY NIGHT
The annual meeting and election of officers of the Stouffville Athletic Club will be held in the municipal hall here this Thursday evening. At a meeting last week, a nominating committee was appointed and these men will bring in a suggested slate of officers for the annual meeting. Following the election the meeting will be thrown open to a discussion of athletic activities for the summer.
Men, you’re urged to get out to this meeting and assist this club. It’s a regrettable fact that those who are most fluent with their criticism of the athletic program carried on and those who operated it, always fail to show up at the meetings of the club. The men who have organized and operated this club for the past several seasons have done a real job for sports here, and they are deserving of better support and interest than anything shown heretofore.
Everyone wants to see all the activity in the park and on the diamond possible this summer, but it can only be done if more men throw their shoulder to the wheel. PUBLIC MEETING FRIDAY NIGHT RE FEASIBILITY OF COMMUNITY-OWNED ARENA
This Friday evening, the public of Stouffville and others in the immediate locality who are interested, are asked to gather at the municipal hall here, to discuss the purchase of the local arena and future installation of artificial ice.
The Stouffville Athletic Club, an energetic group, has found a response to their suggestion for the meeting from many other organizations in town, and representatives in town, and representatives of these, along with other private citizens are expected to be on hand.
It is hoped that a committee can be named at Friday’s meeting to wait on the municipal council regarding the purchase of the present arena and suggested plans for improvements.

Local sport lovers are rubbing their hands with enthusiasm this week as Stouffville’s all-out drive gets underway for an artificial ice arena. The success of the campaign will undoubtedly be one of the biggest boons the town has receiving in many a day, and everyone we’ve talked to seems to be pulling for its success, and not a few are enquiring where they can sign their name on the dotted line, to help put the job across. While revenues received from the operation of local hockey teams will form a very small portion of the revenues expected if the arena becomes a reality, the facilities which will be made available to the youth of town and countryside are tremendous, and the opportunity for good clean entertainment and healthful recreation are great

LINDSAY ARTIFICIAL ICE PROVING MOST PROFITABLE
The following is the text of a telegram showing the preferable extent to which the Lindsay arena has been operated in its short term of existence.
“Lindsay artificial ice arena in operation only since November 10, 1918. Ice plant cost thirty-seven thousand installed in existing arena seating twelve hundred. Gross receives to March first, thirteen thousand, five hundred. Net profit five thousand two hundred approximately. Coming into heavy receipts, now with hockey playoffs, and hope to clear ten thousand this season.” SPORTS RUN INTO MONEY, EVEN IN STOUFFVILLE
Anyone who knows anything about sports activities, particularly in these times, knows that they cost — and plenty. Here in Stouffville the local Athletic Club has done a monstrous job of raising funds for athletic activities, one which might put even to shame, much larger centres.
In the two years the Club has been in operation, a grand total of $8,000 has been raised in revenue. Of this amount it has cost approximately $6,500 to operate, including of course in this figure, the many and heavy expenses attached to the various events, such as street carnivals, etc., which the club has put on to raise funds. The Club has in its possession, ready for use, over $1,000 in sports equipment in addition to approximately $600 in the bank account. BERT BELL TO HEAD ATHLETIC CLUB FOR ANOTHER TERM
Bert bell, Stouffville businessman who has served as president of the local Athletic Club for the Stouffville Clippers, Intermediate hockey team at the annual meeting of the Club held on Thursday evening. Under his guidance the Club has continued to grow in its activities and to prosper, and high hopes are held for another bumper year in sports.
Elected as vice-president, was ken Laushway, manager of last season’s Intermediate ball team, and one of the mainstays of the Athletic Club since its inauguration.
Irwin Borinsky was returned as treasurer, with Joe Aida, as secretary. The new directors are, Henry Ogden, Jake Baker, Gar Lehman and Walter Holden. A new committee was elected to keep an eye on finance, and they are, Everton Smith, Don Lewis and Chas. Nolan.
While not as good a turnout was on hand as might be expected there was a good representation of former club workers, and a number of new faces.
It will be the job of this new executive to meet very shortly and map out for this summer’s baseball activity. Local fans enjoyed a good season of sport last year, as well as the lads, old and young who participated. Two of last year’s went into the Ontario playdowns. BOWLERS ORGANIZE FOR SUMMER SPORT
Bob Johnston will head the Stouffville Bowling Club for the forthcoming season. Bob was re-elected for a second term at the annual meeting of the Club held on Monday evening. Other officers are vice-president, Bob Snowball; secretary-treasurer, Norm Baker.
A drive for new members is underway, and heading this department is Elgin Wagg, assisted by M.E. Watts. The Games Committee is composed of Bob Johnston, T.B. Rae, M.E. Watts, Ken Laushway; Grounds Committee, F. L. Button, Elgin Wagg, Elmer Daniels; District Committee, Bob Snowball, F.L. Button; Provincial Lawn Bowling Assoc.. rep., F. L. Button. ENTHUSIASTIC GROUP PLAN FOR ARTIFICIAL ARENA HERE
While the public meeting called on Friday night to discuss ways and means of promoting the purchase of the Stouffville Arena and installation of artificial ice, was not large due partly to two other major events taking place in town that evening, what it lacked in numbers, was made up in enthusiasm.
Harold Spoofed was selected to take the chair, and conduct the discussion on the ice question. Representatives were heard from the Athletic Club, the Lions Club. the Lions, the Oddfellows, and the High School Literacy Society. In addition to opinions from various other businessmen and farmers in this locality.
The advisability of approaching the municipal council on the matter was thoroughly discussed, and it was finally agreed that the chance of putting across a vet on spending $50,000 for an artificial ice arena was pretty slim. It was pointed out by M.E. Watts that approximately 75% of those who would have a vote on such an undertaking, have little or no interest in sports.
The question also arose as to weather or not the Municipal Board would sanction the issuing of such debentures
However, most were behind a proposal to sell shares in order to put the project across.
Strongest point in favour of a municipally-owned arena was the fact that a grant of $5,000 wold be forthcoming from the provincial government under this ownership.
Mr. Watts suggested the plan of selling shares in hope of forming a joint stock company, and in so doing, many of our rural folks who are equally enthusiastic towards an artificial ice rink her, could share in the plan.
Your sports writer although favourable to which ever plan would be most assured of success, pointed out that the stock idea would get away from dividing the municipality into camps. over the issue.
Bert bell, president of the Athletic Club, gave the meeting the figures of contractors, ice company representatives, as well as the financial report from several other small arenas in the area. His information was certainly a revelation to many of those present, as to the possible revenues to be gained from the operation of an ice plant.
The final unanimous agreement reached at the meeting was voiced in the following motion: “That a canvass be conducted for prospective shareholders, at $100 per share, up to $50,000, with a view of forming a joint stock company for the purchase of the Stouffville Arena and the installation of artificial ice.
The following committee of canvassers were named with power to add to their numbers: Geo. Allison, Bert Bell, Don Chadwick, Ken Laushway, Herb. Simpson, Morgan Degeer, Bert Ball, Jake Baker, Ken Reesor, L.E. O’Neill, gar Lehman, Truman Baxter, Harold Spoofed, E.A. Button, Vince Baker, Walter Brillinger, M.E. Watts, and Chas. Nolan.

The Athletic Club now have their 1949 Deluxe Ford Sedan, on which they are selling draw tickets for their annual street fair in August. GOOD FISHING FOR PERCH AT KESWICK
Ten-year-old Marilyn Sedore opened the Lake Simcoe perch fishing season by pulling 35 out of the Maskinonge River at Keswick in half an hour Saturday morning. A score of semi-professional gaped and gasped as she lured the fish with her worms and home-made hooks.
With her brothers Happy Sedore, 11, who pulled out 20, and Freddy, six, who got 17 little ones. Fishing off the same wharf were city anglers with all sorts of fancy tackle and bait. Some of them didn’t even get a nibble. Most got a few.
“When the city men don’t catch any they pay me a quarter for each of mine,” said Marilyn. She lives near the river and it’s an annual event in her life — and her brothers too. The Sedore family hans’t any fancy recipe for bringing them in.
“It just happens,” said Happy. “You notice how my brother, Freddy, got all the little ones. It’s funny, but the little ones all go for his hooks. Maybe we get more because we have local worms.” ATHLETIC CLUB PLAN ANOTHER ACTIVE BALL SEASON
The executive of the Stouffville Athletic Club met on Monday evening, and Mapped out plans for another active baseball season. While the minor teams to be sponsors are still not definite, Messrs. Joe Oulette and Jim Austin were named as local managers. It was thought that possibly Midget and Juvenile would be the two age groups most suited to take in the greatest number of players.
Don Lewis was appointed as the Club’s representative to make arrangements to get into the most convenient grouping. It is expected that Markham will again be in the field, and possibly Agincourt and Unionville.
The Athletic Club will sponsor an O.B.A. Intermediate ‘C’ team with an entry in the Ken Laushway was named as manager with Earl Cook and Murray Holden his coaching assistants. The Tri-County league organization meeting is scheduled for the first of next week, and the local Club will be represented. The probable setup of the league will comprise eight teams, with a southern division of Stouffville, Port Perry, Sunderland and Sutton.
The executive was very enthusiastic regarding the entering of the intermediate ball club, since the treasurer revealed that of all the ball teams the Athletic Club operated, the Intermediates alone made a profit. While the teams are not operated with a view to making money, it was gratifying to know that the one which was probably the most expensive to run, came out with a surplus. CLAIM $90 A WEEK SALARIES SPOILING SENIOR HOCKEY
Pro hockey interests which can afford to spend piles of money are wrecking the Ontario Senior ‘A’ hockey structure, city council was told by J.C. McLeod, chairman and Alex Lowe, secretary of the Arena Commission. Clubs from smallest centres, like Owen Sound, can’t match the bank rolls of teams with pro affiliations and may be forced to drop out.
“The hockey picture has got so bad that a town of Owen Sound’s size finds it hard to compete,” said McLeod. The city which has sponsored Senior ‘A’ hockey and lacrosse clubs for several seasons, will have to drop back to Senior ‘B’ or intermediate, it was predicted.
“The payroll of the Marlboros (Toronto Maple Leafs farm club) was greater than the total receipts of the Owen Sound club last season,” according to Mr. McLeod Players for the Toronto team get $90 a week and one received $3,500 for the season.
While Owen Sound as been forced to compete with free-spending clubs like Marlboros, Peterboro has been luring Owen Sound players for its new Senior ‘A’ lacrosse entry simply by offering more money.
For these reasons Mr. McLeod claimed, “we face an all-over net loss in revenue of $3,500 this year.
James Keeling, automobile dealer and one of the sponsors of the Mercury’s Hockey Club is fed up and though with hockey, council was told. He has been subject to unjust criticism from fans and cannot continue due to high costs do operating the club. CAMPAIGN ARENA ON LAST QUARTER
The final drive is underway for the last $12,000 in the campaign for $50,000 to install artificial ice in the local arena. Latest figures this Wednesday morning show a total of slightly over $38,000 subscribed in the two and a half weeks of canvassing. The army do canvassing will be bending every effort to reach the goal by the end of next week so that the company may be formed and contracts gone into immediately.
Shareholders in the proposed Stouffville Arena Company attended a meeting in the Veterans’ Hall on Tuesday evening, and were addressed by representatives of the Canadian Ice Machinery Co., and John Ingress Co., two prospective tender’s on the new ice plant for Stouffville.
Rev. Douglas Davis was named chairman and called on Geo. Allison and others present for their views and information regarding the project. Mr. Allison, chairman of the committee in charge of the canvass for $50,000 reported a total subscription up to that time of $36,500. Mr. Allison reported on having contractors on the ground, and suggestions regarding additions and changes in structure of the arena. he told the shareholders that it would require approximately two months months to install the ice plant once a contract was let.
Mr. Novel, for the John Ingress Co., quoted prices from $27,900 to $33,000 for single and double unit ice plants, either manual or automatic. He also spoke briefly on the addition of a domestic ice plant which could be operated with the same machinery.
Mr. Barton and Mr. Bower of the Canadian Ice Machinery Co., told the audience that their firm had installed sixty ice arena plants across Canada, eight in Ontario last season. Mr. Barton had inspected the present arena and found it quite suitable for an ice plant with additions which the committee has conceived.
Morley Symes, contractor, was asked for figures on cost of a 24’ addition to the south end of the arena to the south end of the arena. Mr. Symes stated that he could not give an exact figure as he had had little time to look over the situation, but from his brief inspection he estimated the south end addition at $5,000 to $6,000, seats and basement extra. This is where the committee have conceived of an additional five hundred seats, with dressing rooms beneath, and a basement for the ice plant.
Mr. F.L. Button sketched briefly the procedure for forming briefly the procedure for forming the Joint Stock Company, and it was agreed that the final drive to reach the $50,00 goal goal should proceed with all speed.

Two new high wire fences will be erected on the fired and third baselines of the baseball diamond in memorial Park to protect the fans. The Lions Club will finance the one facing their newly constructed bleachers, while it is expected the Athletic Club will foot the bill for the third base barrier.
Work was started this week on the bleachers for the hardball diamond at memorial Park. The bleachers are being erected by the Lions Club. They will be in three section approximately 75 feet long, to seat 250 people. UNIONVILLE GRAB OFF FOUR SPOTS IN ALL-STAR SELECTION
Here’s the No. 1 team, goal, Norm Stunden, (Unionville); defence, McGhee (Aurora); Calhoun, (Weston); centre, Polly Minton (Unionville); right wing, Ted Downer, (Weston); left wing, Poots (Unionville); extra, Boychoff (Unionville).
Norm Stunden played one of this best years Junior hockey and incidentally it’s his last. He’s seen service with Richmond Hill, Stouffville and Unionville. Stunden was as cool as a cucumber under fire, and had a handy pair of hands for a netminder.
Polly Minton, formerly with Stouffville Red Wings, rated the second-best individual player on the league. Always a great puck hawk, Polly has given many a grandstand performance when his team was shorthanded.
Irving Poots, best at left wing was a steady performer for Unionville going both ways.
Bill Boychoff, formerly with Bradford and Aurora, did a stretch with Galt Junior ‘A’ then lined up permanently with Unionville. He was equally effective on defence or forward, a power house of rugged ability in either position. LOCAL PARK COMMISSION PLANS ANOTHER FULL SEASON OF IMPROVEMENTS
Stouffville memorial Park Commission held this year’s inaugural meeting at the Park last week, and looked over the work to be done on the grounds this year. Members of the Commission are John Scott, Dr. S.S. Ball, Elmer Daniels, Ken Laushway, K.R. Davis, and Chas. Nolan. Council representatives are John Scott and Henry Ogden.
The members main project will be the erection of a large concrete building to give toilet facilities to the park. While a contract has not been let it is understood that the cost will be between four and five hundred dollars.
The new bleachers being erected by the Lions Club will be painted to match up with the job done last year on the grandstand.
Several loads of cinders have been spread at the foot of the park road to improve parking space near the arena.
The Commission looked over the new field being opened up for softball south of the park drive. The field was levelled off and seeded last fall and will be rolled and clipped for action this summer.
Caretaker Bert Batt who had the park in such fine trim as last year, is already at work. NOW IS THE TIME
If you contemplated for several weeks investing in a share or shares in Stouffville Artificial Ice Arena, now is the time — the town is facing one of its important milestones in history. Perhaps not in many years, will Stouffville come so close again to having an artificial ice arena, IF you don’t push the campaign over the top today with your investment. When this article was written the total number of shares sold (in dollars) was approaching the $42,000 figure. Only $8,000 to go, but let’s not ease up in our efforts, if we’re to see this project through to a successful conclusion.
Artificial ice in town will undoubtedly be the greatest forward step the municipality has taken since the installation of our Main St. pavement, twenty years ago.
Yet only the united effort of all who are financially able, can we attain our goal. If we should fail, and we must not, don’t let your name be numbered among those who could have helped, but did not.
Crests have arrived from the Ontario Minor Hockey Association to be presented to the members of the Stouffville Juvenile Hockey team who were group champions this season.
Len Simmons of Aurora has approached the O.B.A. for permission to field a Junior ‘A’ ball club made up of players from the district, which, we presume would include Stouffville. He feels that such a team could compete with the Toronto teams, beside providing better ball for the fans at home.
The executive of the local Athletic Club was expected to meet his Tuesday evening to iron out the minor baseball setup here. Weather Bantam, Midget or Juvenile teams to be operated must be decided soon. Stouffville Bantam squad is intact with the exception of three over-age boys, and it would appear a wise move to keep the boys in this bracket for one more season. They were eliminated last fall in the Ontario playdowns by Oakville.
The trout season opens next Saturday.
The Dept. of Game and Fishing has announced the cancelling of the 1949 moose season for Ontario.

Saturdays are being booked early this year for picnics in our memorial Park
We understand that at least four companies are preparing to tender on the job of artificial ice for the Stouffville Arena Co. for next winter.
There’s an exhibition Bantam game here this Wednesday afternoon between Richmond Hill and Hoe Oulette’s Stouffville Bantams.
There was a good show of Juveniles in the Park on Thursday night for their opening baseball trials. A number of last year’s Midget boys have moved up, and there were a number of last year’s faces showing. The manager, Doug Davis is awaiting the schedule from Len Simmons, Aurora.
The local girls had their first workout for the female softball squad last week, under the guidance of Messrs. Lambert Malloy and Elgin gag. Quite a number of held regulars were back, including Gertie Slack, Jean Miller, Kay Ford, Eria Holden, Helen Snowball Margaret Barry . Brigand and Audrey Jennings, along a number of new faces. A game is contemplate with Claremont girls this Wednesday night.
Those large toilet facilities for which plans and a contract was recently got out by the Park Commission is being held up, awaiting the Arena Co. negotiations. If, as it appears now, a new arena will be built on the north boundary of the park, some arrangements might be worked out between the Park Commission and the Arena Co. for use of their washroom facilities on baseball nights, and special occasions.
There was a good a group out for the first Bantam practice last Thursday, although only three of last years O.B.A. team are overage. Bruce Rusnell and Grant Burkholder are two newcomers to the squad. Don Macgregor is expected down from Sault Ste Marie to add strength to the mound staff. Other members of the outfit are, Don Haynes, Ross Madill, Ralph Oulette, Jim Rennie. TWO LEAGUES PLANNED FOR NORTH YORK BASEBALL

In Juvenile, Aurora and Stouffville are in, while Newmarket pending the decision of the local Lions Club will probably round out that section. Markham will carry the Intermediate banner. The Juvenile and Intermediate sections will operate as a four -team circuit. Plans along these lines were set in motion at a league assembly in Newmarket last week. TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE COMPLETE

ALL READY FOR BIG SPORTS DAY, 24TH
Headed by the Newmarket Band, Stouffville Athletic Club’s big sports program will get underway at the park at 1.30 next Tuesday, May 24th. The band will parade through town, winding up at the park for the opening ball game, and intermediate affair, part of a four-team exhibition tournament.
There’ll be races for the little tots, free ice-cream, and refreshment booths on the grounds. If the weatherman smiles, bring along your lunch, and enjoy the fine surroundings in the town park.
The hardball final will be a twilight fixture, followed by more band music, and a monster bingo party in the park.
Stouffville Bantams drew their first win of the current ball season here last week, when they downed Richmond Hill 8-5 in the Bantams opener. Billy Murphy went five inning ore local crew and after turning in a nice effort, was relieved by Geo. Lintner in the last two frames. Lintner sent the final three batters down hitless.
Caretaker Bert Batt of memorial Park, reports the first casualty this week to the new play equipment, installed there by last summer as a gift froth Lions Club. One of the fine new teeters has been broken, and by the fair sex at that. Mr. Batt tells us that the girl reported the incident to him, but he didn’t hear anything about an offer to pay for the damage done.
The local hard ball diamond was really getting a going over this week, and that corner of the park looked like the parking lot for a mad machinery convention. The Athletic Club has not been satisfied with the condition of the infield for some time, and went all out this week to do something about it. The ground has been torn up, ground up, rolled and dragged. The portion of the infield which is skinned back, has been widened. Countless errors are caused by bad hops which the continually takes on the pot-holed ground. In addition to embarrassing his team, an infielder also runs the risk of getting a nasty clout on the head from a hard-hit bouncing ball. It has been pointed out that maple Leaf Stadium diamond which is as near perfection as you’ll find has forty feet of smooth skinned diamond back of the base line, so that infielders can play a-w-a-y back, and come up on the fast ones. Everything is counted on to be shape or the 24th.
That four acres of new ground worked into the park area last year by the Athletic Club is being kept in fine trim by the park caretaker, but up to date there has been no sign of any action towards laying out a new diamond there. With no less than five local ball teams being operated here in addition to a neighbouring softball club which makes Stouffville their home ground, it wold certainly appear that the ground should be lined up to give more diamond space. LORNE BOADWAY NEW TENNIS CLUB PRESIDENT
At the annual re-organization meeting of the Stouffville Tennis Club last week, Lorne Boadway was elected president. Other members of the executive are vice-president, Marion Sanderson, and secretary-treasurer, Doreen Ogden.

It will be interesting to see how are OHA will go with its promised move to prevent professional clubs from signing players until they reach the age of 18 years.
O.H.A. President J.J. (Tiny) Mcfadyen was asked a few pointed questions about the present set-up. Some of the answers he gave indicate the O.H.A. realize that certain things have gotten out of hand, but it won’t be easy to change them.
As far as McFadyen is concerned he is definitely opposed to the pros taking up youngster who don’t realized fully the import of the terms and agreements they sign. He said the O.H.A. will attempt to have the rules changed, preventing the clubs from signing player until he is 18, but he didn’t know what he outcome would be.
“Tiny” also expressed favour that the junior age limit be raised from 18 to 20. “Of course this is a rule that will have to be changed by the C.A.H.A.,”he pointed out. “The O.H A can only make a recommendation urging the change.
Move to make the junior age limit 21 has won favour out West. The Western Canada Junior League executive at a meeting over the weekend went on record as favoring such action. If pressure is brought by both the East and the C.A.H.A. to make the change, then something may be done. Providing, of course, the pros don’t get to the C.A.H.A. first.
Members of the Stouffville Clippers, local hockey club, held a get-together at the Tam-O-Shanter Golf Club on Saturday. Manager Bert Bell is said to have led the field with some wicked drives and par-count on several holes. T.H.L. TELLS OF TIDY INCOME FOR NEW ARENA CO.
Henricks of Maple Leaf Auto Sales, speaking for T.H.L. Secretary Frank Smith, told an audience at that final Stouffville Arena organization meeting, that the Toronto Hockey League was prepared to pay up o $125.00 an evening for game time, and up to $20 an hour practice time.
He told his listeners that the T.H.L. operated 800 teams last year, the largest hockey league in the world. That league had gone as far away as Milton to contract for time. Only three rinks are available in Toronto, when many times this number could be utilized.
While the Stouffville Arena Limited will have no connection with any local teams operating here, so far as managing them in concerned, other interests will undoubtedly place local O.H.A. teams in the field.
So far as skating for the “Young fry” is concerned, there is no reason why the local Athletic Club cannot contract as has been done with Mr. Baker in the past, in the event Mr. Baker’s rink is sold to some other village.
A large portion of the revenue which is expected to produce dividends for the company shareholders will be made from the many practice hours from October to May.
While other artificial ice arenas will undoubtedly be erected in years to come, the backlog of hockey teams with no ice is so great, it will be a long time before the slack is taken up — and in addition, the providing of “sure ice” will bring still more teams into the field.
Mr Hendricks told the shareholders that the T.H.L. was watching closely the progress of the local arena project.

Stouffville Intermediates dropped a 4-1 decision to Toronto Unique Seniors of the Viaduct League, in an exhibition ball game here on Friday night. the visitors forged a 4-0 lead in the first innings, and the local nine only threatened once in the remaining six innings, when they scored a run in the fifth.
“Porky” Schell pitched them up for two innings for Stouffville, was relieved by Bill Nigh, who gave way after two innings to Bob Hansard for the balance of the game.
Stouffville was short Polly Minton, Wally Nicholson and Lou Raxlin and played anything but air-tight ball in the field. However, the shortage of team regulars gave several of the newcomers a chance to show their stuff. Ted Cadieux at short and Bill Nigh in right field showed some real promise. They are top-notch softball baseball players, and are anxious to try their skills in hardball uniforms.
Bill Nigh slammed out a nice hit down right field to score Hocus Miller with the home team’s only tally of the game.
“Dewey” Doolittle of Aurora, playing with the Toronto squad got a rousing welcome, each time he stepped to the plate. STOUFFVILLE BANTAMS DROPPED CLOSE ONE 7-6

Stouffville lineup : Gertie Slack, Lillian Redshaw, Marg. Brigand, Myrtle Staley, Blanche Paxton, Audrey Jennings, Helen Snowball, Kay Ford, Erla Holden, Marg. Barry, Jean Miller, Joan Haynes, and Peggy White. INTERMEDIATES TIE WITH SUNDERLAND 6-6
Errors cost Stouffville to eke out a 6-6 tie with Sunderland in their first league meeting last week. The locals left enough men stranded on the bases to have won the game quite handily, and then made countless fumbles to allow the northerners to even the count.
Stouffville nicked pitcher Beaton of Sunderland for only two hits, those by Lorne Schell and Lou Raxlin. Miller went the distance for Stouffville, but his support was weak.

After a sloppy game on the road last week, Stouffville Tri-County league entry returned to form on Monday evening to win over Bolsover 5-2, in one of the best played games here this season.
The game sparkled with two double plays, good pitching and some heavy batting. Bud Watson, newly acquired shortstop turned in a nice starting effort, and handled a double play ball, Watson to Hansard to Minton, short to second to first.
Bolsover also chalked up a double, though theirs was somewhat less spectacular, since it was a forced run at the plate.
Lyall went the route for Bolsover, and ten men faced him in the fourth, fifth, and sixth innings. Bob Hansard went well on the Stouffville mound for five innings, when he was relieved by Schell who held the visitors to one hit for the remaining four innings.
Stouffville squeezed the opening tally across in the first innings, the first three men up, bunting successfully. Bolsover evened the score in the second, Stouffville added another pair in the third, and Bolsover one in the fifth.

Stouffville Bantams were scheduled to play in Markham on Monday night, but found that the team had raised themselves to Midget, and thus the game was cancelled. The local youngsters are scheduled to play in Aurora
this Wednesday night and Newmarket will be here a week from Wednesday, June 22.
Hocus Miller and Nick Procenko attended the baseball school at Hamilton last week. They received some pointers for pitchers and catchers from one of the leading figures in the semi-pro league at Hamilton. Several other members of the team are expected to attend the school this week.
Irwin Borinsky was really the hero of that 19-2 shellacking Stouffville handed Beaverton last week. Iv, was pressed into service to umpire the contest (much against his will), but once he got the hang of the business he managed to keep both sides happy for the balance of the game.

LOCAL GIRLS LOSE SAT. NIGHT EXHIBITION
Agincourt softball gals had too much on the ball for the home team, downing the visitors 19-5. Playing under the glaring floodlights was anew experience for the Stouffville girls, and one which rather upset their baseball.
Lillian Redshaw did the Stouffville pitching for all but the last two innings, when she was relieved by Marg Brigand. Helen Manser, a Leaside import for the occasion held up the Stouffville betting getting two home runs, and accounting for all the runs batted in.

The game was disrupted at one juncture, when the umpire ruled that the local catcher, Gertie Slack had upset an Aurora player when she was attempting to run to first, after the pitch on the third strike had been missed at the plate. SWAMP BEAVERTON BY 19-2 SCORE
Beaverton Intermediates couldn’t begin to cope with the Stouffville nine in their first league meeting on Thursday, and went down 19-2.
“Porky” Schell on the mound pitched superbly. Bob Hansard took over the first base spot in the absence of Polly Minton, and with Hocus Miller on third and the new addition, Bud Watson at short, made up a hard infield to get by.

Stouffville Bantams dropped their league game to Aurora last week by a score of 16-2. Oddly though, Joe Oulette’s lads were leading 2-1 in the 4th innings.
The Athletic Club is preparing to stage another ball tournament on the holiday, July 1st. There will be hardball with cash amounting to $100 being given, softball and bingo at night. Girls of the C.I.G.T. group will operate a refreshment booth on the grounds all day.

Beaverton snowed under second time with score 14-3
Thursday’s Intermediate ball game here ran true to form with Stouffville downing their Beaverton visitors 14-3. Bob Hansard went the distance on the mound for Stouffville and was never in any great trouble. The infield and outfield were constantly shifting to give all the boys a chance to get in the game.
With count 7-1 for the home club, Beaverton ran in three counters, as they teed off on a couple of Hansard’s Sunday pitches. However, the visitors fire only lasted the one innings, while the Stouffville team hit steadily in each innings. SITE IS SOUGHT FOR HOCKEY HALL
The International Hockey Hall of Fame will ask the Kingston city council to provide a site near the junction of Stuart and Barrie streets, in the city park, as a site for the new Hockey Hall of Fame. to be erected in Kingston.
Until a few weeks ago the committee had planned to build a shrine at the Fair Grounds, beside the proposed memorial centre. However, a visit from Clarence Campbell, National Hockey League president, chairman of the Hall’s board of directors, has resulted in a suggested change of site.
The NHL has promised $30,000 towards the building costs once it is certain a suitable site and design are chosen. At present there is about $56,000 in the building fund. GRLS EDGE ELGIN MILLS 9-8
Stouffville girls edged Elgin Mills 9-8 on Monday evening, in a York centre fixture, played on the south park here. Lillian Redshaw turned in a nice effort on the Stouffville mound.

Top clout of the game was a homer in the fifth by Marg. Brigand of Stouffville. STRUCTURAL WORK BEGINNING ON NEW ARENA
Work is progressing on Stouffville’s big new artificial ice arena on the east side of memorial Park.. Structural work is beginning this week, when huge bents will be raised skyward. The concrete work has been completed on the basement and side abutments, also the ice wall.
Six artificial ice concerns are preparing tenders on their part of the job, tenders to being by July 5th. One of the important firms tendering on the work will be the same company that ice in Maple Leaf gardens.
Hundreds of yards of gravel are being hauled into the ice enclosure and a bulldozer is constantly leveling off. The original east fence of the park has been removed and the newly acquired two acres of ground is now enclosed in the park grounds.
A four-team tennis league has been formed with Aurora, Richmond Hill, Newmarket and Uxbridge being the competitors. the league opens this Wednesday, June 29th. NEWMARKET FORFEITS GAME, LOCALS TO PLAYOFFS
Newmarket, who have had trouble for several seasons fielding teams at proper times, either home or away, failed to put in an appearance here on Wednesday.
It was a scheduled Bantam game and Stouffville was awarded the game by default.
Joe Oulette’s lads are now awaiting the word as to the dates for the playoffs between themselves and Aurora. Markham has moved up to Midget, Richmond Hill and Newmarket forfeiting games leaving only Aurora and Stouffville to battle it out for the right to proceed into the O.B.A. Bantam playoffs. SUTTON TOPPLES INTERMEDIATES 6-3
Sutton pulled a surprise win over the local crew on Thursday evening, winning 6-3. “Porky” Schell toed the slab for Stouffville for the first two innings when he was touched up for a three run homer early in the third, and retired in favour of Bob Hansard who finished the game.
Stouffville came within an ace closing the score in the seventh innings. The boys had the tying runs on base, but Hansard, who has been clouting all summer, went down swinging to retire the side.
Nick Procenko, local catcher injured his finger quite severely at a point in the game, but was able to continue.
Sutton pitching was the big factor in the win for the lake side teams. INTERMEDIATE BLOW 2-RUN LEAD, LOSE TO BOLSOVER 4-3.
Stouffville Intermediates tossed away their meeting with Bolsover on Monday night 4-3. Hocus Miller only gave up one hit in five innings, but slipped in the sixth, and retired for Bob Hansard who finished the game. The home aggregation was still out in front by two runs in the last innings when Procenko made a wild pitch to third and in totted the tying counter. A single off Hansard brought in the willing tally moments later.
Ted Cadieux, one of the newcomers to the club, got himself two doubles and a single for the best batting job of the night. Lou Raxlin turned in a night. Lou Raxlin turned in a nice effort at second and Wally Nicholson robbed Bolsover of a couple of runs with a sensational catch in deep centre field.
Stouffville had an eleventh hour chance to get back into the game but big Bob Hansard failed to get his eye on a third pitch with the bases loaded and went down swinging to retire the side.
Manager Ken Laushway has not been too well satisfied with the operation of his team the last couple of games, and it seems too bad when they have the “makings” to put them easily at the top of the league, that they continually falter and slump into shiftless ball. It is apparent to the manager and many of the regular fans that several of the boys are not in condition to give of their best for more than three or four innings, and this irregularity in their play dissatisfies the balance of the team who are “in there pitching with everything they’ve got.” LOCAL LASSIES LAMBAST WOODBRIDGE
Stouffville Girls’ Softball team proved too much for Woodbridge in their league encounter on Monday evening, downing their visitors 11-0. Marg. Brigand and Lillian Redshaw shared the local pitching honours with Helen took over from Gertie Slack who recently hit the matrimonial trail.
Myrtle Staley honoured in the sixth frame with two on, while Jean Miller pounded over the plate with the team’s first run.

SALE OF ARENA STOCK MOUNTING
The first block of shares in Stouffville Arena Limited, the new artificial ice arena here, has been sold. Salesmen are now continuing to sell shares to covet the cost of the ice plant. work on which will be started shortly. Prospective buyers are being urged to invest, both on the grounds that the concern will be one of the finest assets the district has had in many years, and on the fact that every arena of this kind within a fifty miles miles show handsome profits, which bids fair for those investing in the local company.
Tenders on the artificial ice plant are to be in company hands this week from the six interested ice manufacturers.
If the local arena should be the only one of its kind functioning in the area next winter, hockey activity for the district will no doubt centre on this is a very definite possibility, in this event the local firm should find their plant a most locative undertaking, state company officials.
Power hand saws are bringing the thousands of feet of lumber on the job, quickly into shape, and the construction of the bents and truss work is progressing steadily.

CLOSING IN NEW ARENA BUILDING BEGINS
The job of closing in the new artificial ice arena under construction in memorial park, got underway this week. the sides of the big building up to the eves, and the ends are being sheeted with steel on the outside. The inside will be insulated with rock wool and sheeted up again with matched lumber. The roof of the building which will be on by the end of the week, will be covered by aluminum. The aluminum will resist the sun’s rays and is said by the manufacturer to be 20 percent more effective than canvas as used in awnings.
A large number of local men have been employed the last few days laying the drains which run beneath the ice surface.
A representative of the Lineo Canadian Co. who will install the ice machinery has been on the site several times lately arranging for a special floor in the machinery room. He told The Tribune on Monday that the company wanted to start shipping in the thirty-five tons of piping required, in about ten days time.
Nearly 250 yards of fill was trucked in on Friday and Saturday, some of which was used inside the building, but the greater part of which was used for leveling up the lot in front, giving a much more pleasing appearance. UNIONVILLE BOWLING GREENS SOLD
Last week Prentice and Prentice, auctioneers, faced an interested crowd on the lawn bowling greens at Unionville, but the game wasn’t bowling this time.. the auctioneers were authorized to sell the grounds and sell them they did. Mrs. William Cousin, on whose farm the bowling greens are located, was the purchaser. She was the highest bidder for the lot measuring 145 x 160 feet’
Tottenham Bowling Club bought the power roller for a little over $200, while other equipment went to Stouffville and other clubs in the district.
We understand Mrs. Cousin will build a home on the grounds she has acquired.
Stouffville Bantams dropped a 8-6 decision to Markham on Wednesday evening in an exhibition game in Memorial park. Stouffville’s younger lads made a good showing against the older Markham nine.
Several Juvenile ball players are waiting Stouffville’s entry into the O.B.A. playdowns, when they will be added to the local Intermediate roster, to give a much-needed strength to the infield. The younger lads in question, are entered in the O.B.A. series in both Juvenile and Intermediate, and will be available for duty on both teams. They cannot participate in the current playoffs.
Too many players with Stouffville’s Athletic Club sponsored teams still seem to have the twisted idea that they are doing the team or community a favour by turning out for games and practices, and according to the managers of both the girls’ and boys’ give considerable trouble in this regard. It would be better for all concerned and better for the fans, if players who had to be catered to, in regard to transportation and punctuality at games, were dropped. Times were when a girls or boy was only too happy to wear the uniform and the idea of demanding transportation in the form of free gas, taxis and so forth, would have appeared absurd. Certainly, those were the “good old days.” INTERMEDIATES BLOW UP AND LOSE 10-5 AFTER WINNING FIRST GAME OF PLAYOFFS 18-7
After handing Sunderland a18-7 trimming on Friday night. Stouffville blew up before one of the largest crowds of the season here on Saturday and lost 10-5.
It was a good ball game here for three innings, when Stouffville catcher “Butch” Schell in his haste to make a double play at first, threw wild and no less than three runs scored.
The locals came back in their half of the same innings, when Hassard stole home on a passed ball at the plate. Only moments before Polly Minton was outlucked when he drove a sizzler down inside first. Raxlin , who was on first at the time was doubled off, when Welsh made a neat catch of the hot drive.
Stouffville drove into the lead in the fifth when Miller drove in two runs. and Hassard brought in the fourth run with a long fly.
From then on Stouffville infield errors were too numerous to count. Wild throws, booted balls, double play balls muffed, all added up to Sunderland’s rally which netted them seven runs.
Ken Laushway went in to pinch-hit in the seventh, and drove in Stouffville remaining run.
Miller was on the mound, when he was relieved by Hassard. The loss, however, was no fault of the pitchers, but the inconsistent playing of the infield. Campbell went the distance for Sunderland. TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE TRIPLE PLAY NIPPED 9TH INNING RALLY
Stouffville Bowed out of the League on Monday, losing their rubber game to Sunderland 9-6. A 9th innings rally by the locals was nipped in the bud by a fancy triple play, to blast Stouffville’s final hopes.
Ken Laushway started the 9th off for Stouffville, with a single. He went to second on Manager Holden’s single. The third batter, Wally Nicholson, lined a sizzler to short, for what looked like to everybody, including the runners, like at least a double. However, Brandon speared the drive at short, and smartly doubled the runner at second , then nipped the runner at first to complete the triple play, and the game.
Stouffville infield was off colour from the drop of the hat, dropping easy pop flies, missing ground balls, and making wild throws to bases. Sunderland scored two in the first, three in the third, and another three in the fourth, chiefly on errors.
The home crew nearly broke the jinx on several occasions, early in the game, but just couldn’t get a man across the plate. They left the bases loaded in the third, when Miller popped out, Hassard grounded out, and Procenko went down on an easy fly to centre.
Bud Watson, who made his first appearance in a uniform in several weeks, was back at short, but was badly out of practice. He singled in the fourth, and the local supporters believed they were off on a rally at last; but a lapse by the runner at first, let him be picked off by the pitcher.
Miller, Hassard and Laushway were top batters for Stouffville, each hitting every trip up but once.
Laushway singled in the sixth to start the boys off for two runs. Miller singled in the seventh, and Hassard followed with a smashing triple that bounced off the end of the rink. While three runs were chalked up in this innings, three more possibles were left stranded.
Sunderland will now advance into the group finals with Port Perry, who has eliminated Sutton. Stouffville meanwhile will await their chances in the Ontario O.B.A. playdowns, which will not get underway for several weeks.
Stouffville intermediates handed Sutton boys quite a trimming in their exhibition game last week. Sutton lads were short-handed and bolstered their lineup with a couple of Beaverton Intermediates. Bob Hassard bashed out two homers for the home club, the one,…
Stouffville intermediates handed Sutton boys quite a trimming in their exhibition game last week. Sutton lads were short-handed and bolstered their lineup with a couple of Beaverton Intermediates. Bob Hassard bashed out two homers for the home club, the one, a 350 footer to centre field, and the longest ball we’ve seen clouted in Memorial Park this year. The locals won again handily 13-5 against Newmarket of Friday night.
Sunderland and Port perry divided their first home and home games, Port Perry taking the first and Sunderland the second. Sunderland protested the first game, since Umpire Murphy of Stouffville called the game on account of darkness, causing it to revert back to even innings at which time, Port Perry was leading. The rubber game of the series is slated for this midweek.
We still haven’t been able to identify the good American friend who stepped up to the Stouffville bench in Memorial Park here during the second Sunderland game, and handed the boys two nice new pro bats. We understand that this is not the first time this “sport” from across the border has donated equipment to the local boys club. O.B.A. ANNOUNCE LINEUPS FOR ONTARIO PLAYDOWNS
A communication just released by the Ontario Baseball Association gives the group position for Stouffville in the coming Ontario playdowns in Bantam Juvenile and Intermediate divisions.
In the Bantam ‘B’ section Stouffville is grouped with Newmarket and Bowmanville. While Newmarket have been lax in keeping their game appointments all season, Manager Joe Oulette of the squad expects to meet the canal crowd first. Playoff time is several weeks off yet.
In Juvenile ‘B’, Stouffville is grouped with Aurora, Port Perry, and the Lakeshore champion.
In Intermediate ‘C’, Stouffville will tee off with either, Cambray, Fenelon Falls, Little Britain or the Lakeshore winner. Jim Cromwell of Bowmanville, well-known hockey ref and baseball ump, is the convener. LOCAL GRAB OFF PORT’S BALL TOURNEY
Stouffville Intermediate grabbed off the first money in the baseball tournament staged at the big Port Perry’s home team in the first round, while Sunderland was downed by Cambray.
Stouffville took the opener 7-6, after going into the last innings, down 6 to 5. They managed to squeeze over the tying run, and then with bases loaded and two out, pitcher Bill Harper walked “Butch” Schell to force in the winning run. Hocus Miller did the pitching for Stouffville.
In the nightcap, Manager Murray Holden trotted out left-handed Lefty Bagg, for his first start of the season. Lefty went six innings, and although he was in difficulty in nearly every innings, managed to keep the score tied until he retired from the game in favour of Nick Procenko who finished the nine-inning stretch.
Bagg’s support was wobbly in the infield, but his battling mates pounded out enough hits to keep the team in the running and finally win the decision 9-7.
Both Hocus Miller and Bob Hassard were dynamite at the plate, bashing home runs clean out to the race track.
The victory carried with it a prize of $50. HOLIDAY BOWLING TOURNAMENT
The lawn bowling tournament held in town on Civic Holiday was mixed trebles, but the response by outside clubs was almost a washout, hence local rinks filled in and enjoyed a good time. Winners:
1st — C. Pipher’s rink
2nd — A. H. Williams’ rink
3rd — Robert Johnson’s rink
Players are reminded that they should be at the grounds by 7.15 on Monday and Friday evening in order to allow games to start on time. If you are likely to be late, be good enough to phone the club house so that your name may be entered for the draw.

Stage set for softball playoffs
Markham Township softball league is wound up and the stage is set for the playoffs commencing this week. The league finished with Buttonhole on top, Unionville second, and then Peaches and Agincourt, in that order.
Buttonville will meet Peaches and Unionville against Agincourt, in the two semi-final rounds, best two-out-of-three games.
In order not to conflict with any possible Intermediate hardball games, Peaches will play their home game this Friday night on the Markham grounds. The first game is scheduled for Buttonhole field on Wednesday night. Peaches have been playing their home games in the Stouffville field all season.

BANTAMS DEFEAT JUVENILES
Stouffville Bantams, playing fine ball pulled a surprising upset over their Juvenile elders, defeating them 12-10 last week. It was one of a series of exhibition games to be played while waiting the start of the O.B.A. playdowns.
Manager Joe Oulette has his boys in fine shape and they should do well in future games to come. They have a real spirit and a will to win which goes together to provide a good ball team. The Juveniles although some of their players were lacked both the will and the spirit.
Webster was on the mound for the Bantams seems to have the knowhow when it comes to hardball pitching. He shows plenty of poise for future years.
While they did not win any championship, Lambert Malloy and Dinty Hodgins did give a good account of themselves when they represented Stouffville at the recent holiday tennis tourney in Newmarket. The local boys came up with a win in their first round, but passed out of the running later in the competition. LOCAL GIRLS IN THREE-WAY TIE FOR FIRST PLACE
On Monday night the girls brought their bats into play and pounded out twenty-eight runs in three innings against Langstaff. This marks the last game of the current baseball series and the girls are now awaiting the playdowns. Although Langstaff did not prove to be much opposition for the local girls they got in a good batting practice which may help in future games.
Gertie Drewery and Myrtle Staley each homered with bases occupied.
Stouffville, Aurora, Elgin Mills all tied up for first place in the league standing.
The girls are managed and coached by Lambert Malloy and Elgin Wagg.

FINISH PREPARATIONS TO START ARTIFICIAL ICE INSTALLATION
Work will be completed this week on the engine room and ice space, at the new Stouffville Arena, in readiness for the Lined Company to begin installation of artificial ice. A Lined engineer in charge of the Stouffville job was on site again on Monday placing a final okay on the concrete floor and piers on which rest the heavy ice generating machines.
The creosoted timbers for the ice space, on which rest the miles of iron piping are being put in place this week, so that installation may get underway in a matter of a few days.
Work on the front gallery of the arena is now nearing completion, and the sheeting up and insulating of the main floor rooms is going ahead. The hockey cushion is in place with the exception of the east end where piping connections have to be made.
Speaking to The Tribune at the weekend, Mr High Wilson of the Wilson Lumber Co. the arena contractors, stated that there was another month’s work on the big building. LOCAL MINORS NOT ENOUGH POLISH FOR TORONTO VISITORS
Although the Stouffville minor baseball squad presented better catching then the Runnymede team of Toronto, their visitors in an exhibition contest last week, the home team lacked the polish of their opposition in the field.
Lorne Boadway turned in a nice pitching effort on the local mound, only being relieved by Webster in the dying innings of the game. However Lorne’s infield support was wobbly, and as a result, the Runnymede boys ran up a 10-0- score.
It was a 2-0 ball game for five innings, when the city crew broke for eight runs. Stouffville loaded the bases repeatedly, but just couldn’t squeeze a run across. BUTTONVILLE SHADED BY UNIONVILLE 6-5
In an outstanding pitching duel between Cox of Unionville and Jack Rumney of Buttonville, Unionville came out on top by a score of 6-5. Close to a record crowd witnessed the first playoff game between the two clubs to determine the championship. A couple of errors in the field proved costly for Buttonville, while Unionville outfield played air-tight ball. Polly Minton came up with the only home run on an error in left field.
These two clubs go at it again on Tuesday and the summary will be given in next week’s issue. Buttonville who won the championship last year, have at last met up against a team equal to their hitting and pitching power. Softball interest is very high and the installation of flood light would be great asset to both the teams and the spectators. One player was heard to remark that he played the last two innings by instinct owing to the darkness.
Stunden turned in his usual steady game holding down the first base position, while Harvey Archibald was a standout in the field for Unionville. The game was umpired again by Lambert Malloy.

Baseball bats have been silenced in Memorial park for another season, one of the shortest this baseball centre has enjoyed in some time. It would appear for the performances witnessed this season that Stouffville is approaching ever closer to the time when at least a seasonal sports director or professional ball coach must be engaged if the standard of ball is to be kept up to a point worthy of fan support. This view is taken in any way as a criticism of those men who have given their time and effort to handle this year’s teams. They did a good job with the support they received from those they trying to help. But the opinion of many seems to be that an outside “chief” might get more results. Maybe so, but on the other hand if the boys are not interested enough to give their best efforts for local coaches, its their own lookout — and so the story goes.
Rompers are afoot that Bob Snowball may consider entering the Junior hockey ring in Stouffville’s cause again. No comment from Mr. Snowball. Stouffville never came so close to winning an Ontario Junior championship, then the year Bob handled the club a few seasons back. Should he try again, that dream might be fulfilled. There’s certainly be no lack of support.
“Red” Mitchell ex-Chicago Black Hawk, and last year, arena and hockey manager for Aurora, is said to be seeking employment elsewhere for this hockey season. Some Stouffville hockey interests have been glancing his way and ‘tis said what with a new artificial ice arena here, he’s interested. Chances are, a Junior ‘B‘ team for Stouffville might be the outcome, should Mitchell land here. The idea seems to be to leave the Senior hockey field open to Markham Millionaires. Executive members of this club are interested in getting their team on Stouffville’s new ice surface, with Stouffville sticking strictly to Junior hockey. Such an arrangement would certainly benefit the teams involved, the new arena here, and the fans. The teams would stand to cut a bigger slice of gate receipts owing to the increased accommodation available in the new arena, and the larger crowds expected. Certainly, local fans and the press, would fully support any Markham Senior Club which would choose to make Stouffville Arena Limited, their headquarters. While there is nothing definite on such an arrangement, the matter has been discussed by some directors of the new arena here, and executive members of the Markham Hockey Club. GIRLS DROP FROM RACE WHEN EDGED BY ELGIN MILLS
After losing 12-10 at home, Stouffville girls moved to Elgin Mills for a return engagement last Thursday. The Yonge Street girls got off to a good start with six runs in the first two innings while Stouffville countered with only three. From then on the local girls tried hard but when the runs were counted they found themselves on the short end of a 9-8 score. Both Helen Snowball and Gertie Drewery hit well for the locals with Gertie getting one double, two singles and a walk in four times at bat. Helen had two doubles, one single and a walk in five times at bat. Mytle Staley had a triple and two singles to her credit. Although they lost, the girls did their best, and this much can be said, they didn’t go down without a fight. With the score so close a few breaks either way could have changed the picture. Lillian Redshaw has a real pitching arm and we hope she will be around when the bats start swinging next year. Isobelle Mashinter did a fine hurling for Elgin Mills and although somewhat lacking the speed acquired by Lillian she had good control all the way. It was surprising to hear that Aurora also dropped its game to Victoria Square on the same night to prove that the strongest teams during the year are not always such at playoff time.
The lineup was as follows: catcher, Gertie Drewery; pitcher Lillian Redshaw; 1st, Myrtle Staley; 2nd, Marg. Brigand; short, Blanche Paxton; 3rd, Audrey Jennings; left field, Erla Holden; centre field, Kay Ford; right, Helen Snowball; subs., Joan Haines, Marg. Barry. MARKHAM KAYOED BY BOWMANVILLE
Markham Midgets have fallen by the way in the first round of O.B.A. competition. Bowmanville, after defeating them 14-9 on foreign ground, brought joy to their home fans with a 7-1 trouncing at home. Both Blake and Petch showed up well for the local lads with a triple and a double receptively, but it was no match for the power of the eastern lads’ hickory. Doug James deserves much credit for taking an interest in the boys especially when no outside financial help was forthcoming. We only hope that he will continue to keep hardball interest alive in Markham. INTERMEDIATES OUT OF O.B.A. PLAYDOWNS
Last week spelled doom for our Intermediates as they dropped out of the O.B.A. race to Little Britain be one-sided scores of 6-3 and 15-0. In the first game Miller went to the mound for Stouffville with Schell behind the plate. A couple of errors by Watson and Bagg in the third innings let in two runs and gave the visitors a 4-1 lead. In the fourth innings they added two more to sew up the game. Stouffville showed a little action in the fifth with a double by Raxtin, a single for Procenko and a sacrifice by Laushway bringing in three runs. In the 8th and 9th innings Stouffville had men on bases but the hitters failed in the pinch.
On Friday night the boys journeyed to Little Britain and were humbled by a score of 15-0.

Mrs Fred Crossen and Mrs. Gordon Lemon of Stouffville brought home the Sinclair Trophy last week which they won in the annual bowling competition err Claremont.
it was quite a sight to see all the lights come on in the new arena here on Monday night. The Campbell Shellford firm handling the job have done one fine piece of wiring work, and Frank DeCarroll, the boss, told us that he was really proud of the setup of switches and boxes in the arena office.
Bud Watson believes in seeing the sights and working for a living as well. Bu has been working for Silverwoods Dairy supplying the booths at the Exhibition with milk. Throwing milk cans around should build up his muscles for the coming hockey season.
The Stouffville Mens’ Bowling Club and the Ladies’ Club members gathered at the greens on Monday evening, forty-five strong, to celebrate the remodeling and painting of the club house. The job is certainly a credit to the local bowlers and an asset to the town and park.
Other hockey news in town concerns last year’s Intermediate squad. Contact has been made with officials of the Metropolitan hockey league operating up Yonge Street with regard to entering that group this winter. Richmond Hill is also said to be interested. At present the league is comprised of Bradford, Sutton, Newmarket and Aurora. The winner would receive a bye into O.H.A. playdowns in Intermediate grouping.
Lillian Redshaw who pitched for Stouffville girls this season also stars on the Claremont softball team. So valuable is Lillian to the team that last week due to illness Lillian was unable to play so the game between Claremont and Victoria Square was canceled. It was easily seen that Lillian has a well developed throwing arm in her games with Elgin mills and it was certainly no fault of hers that Stouffville lost. COULD HAVE JUNIOR FARM CLUB HERE
Red Mitchell, former Chicago Black Hawks, who spends his summers as a golf instructor at the Highlands Golf Club, and last year managed the Aurora Arena and the Junior Hockey Club, was in Stouffville last week for a conference regarding hockey plans here. Mitchell, representing the interests of owner Tobin of the Hawks told the Stouffville men that Chicago was ready to operate a Junior ‘B’ farm club in Stouffville, as a feeder for the Galt Red Wings, if the right financial arrangements could be made. Just what would be required of Stouffville, and how far the Chicago company would go with putting up the necessary cash for such an undertaking has not yet been revealed.
Stan Stiver who was one of the officials on the Unionville Junior team last year claims that Unionville is definitely planning for an Intermediate ‘B’ hockey team. Stan says that they expect to play at Stouffville where the ice will be smooth and fast, an asset to both the players and the fans.
The first O.H.A. team to definitely sign up for the use of the new Stouffville Arena for home games is the Maple Leafs of Toronto, an O.H.A. Junior ‘B’ Club backed by the Maple Leaf Auto sales of Toronto.
Helen Snowball who played for the Stouffville girls baseball team expects to play for Claremont next year. Maybe she will be able to play for both towns as her help is also needed at Stouffville.
Markham Millionaires got together last week to plan for a good season of hockey this winter. All the players of last years team were present along with Coach Earl Robinson. They plan hockey practices at Oshawa and Stouffville very soon. Most of last years regulars will be back with some additions. Bob Bangay will be a welcome addition to the club. Brother Nick will also be welcomed back, if he can find a way to break from the West Coast professional league which holds his playing rights.
The names of Bob Snowball and Tim O’Neill are both being prominently mentioned as managers of Stouffville’s Intermediate or Senior hockey club this winter. Both men have considerable experience in the field of sports management.
The interior of the new arena is to be finished in walnut, or natural finish, with only the seating receiving any colour, according to word from the arena company meeting this week — should look quite nifty. O.B.A. JUNIOR ‘A’ BALL PLAYOFF STAGED HERE
The third and deciding game in the O.B.A. Zone 3 junior playdown saw Oshawa Hunt Club advance when they eliminated Peter Pan of the North Toronto Baseball association, 12-3 in a game at Stouffville Monday night.

METROPOLITAN AREA OF HOCKEY BIG SPORTS NEWS
The formation of the metropolitan area for hockey and subsequent throwing out on the contentious six-player rue is the big sports gossip in local hockey circles. Hitherto, only Junior ‘A’ and Senior’A’ ranks have had the privilege of drawing players from hither and yon, may now the O.H.A. propose lowering that privilege to Senior ‘B’ and Junior ‘B’, with just one string attached. Metropolitan area would be set up, covering certain territories, such as Toronto to Lindsay, or a similar large area surrounding Peterborough. Clubs would be privileged to draw any players they could from those within these boundaries.. The plan holds a particular interest for such centres as, Stouffville, Markham, Newmarket and Aurora where wrangling year after year resulting in much bad feeling would be eliminated to a great degree. It would appear that the O.H.A. is returning more to the old days of having everything wide open, more in line to the eastern Canadian setup.
Definite O.H.A. decision on this question has been promised by Sept. 27th, which, incidentally, is just three days before the resident rule deadline.
The Metropolitan league as operated among Yonge St. neighbours last season, may reasonably be enlarged to take in Stouffville and Markham, with a Senior ‘B’ winner getting a bye into O.H.A. playdowns.
Markham is already preparing to hit the ice at Oshawa, with future exhibition games at Stouffville. Coach Earl Robinson will again handle the Markies with Harry Watts managing.
While various meetings and rumours are on the go in Stouffville, nothing material has resulted so far. Word from Chicago to Stouffville is that the Black Hawks would not put up any cash for a Junior ‘B’ farm club here, but would supply players from their Junior ‘A’ farmhands at Galt.The Junior Maple Leafs handled by Cec. Hendricks, well-known Maple Leaf Auto chief is also interested in putting a Junior ‘B’ Club into Stouffville.
One thing is sure, with local possibilities, and daily call for ice time, and game time, coming from Toronto clubs, local fans are in for plenty of hockey before long.
LOCAL HOCKEY CLUB GETS COACH FROM LEAFS MARLBORO CHAIN

Bill Lennox of Toronto to handles the coaching duties with the local Junior ‘B’ hockey club which expects to move onto home ice here in Stouffville next week. Bert Bell of Stouffville is acting as local business representative for the club.
Programs will be published again this year containing the pictures of both the local Senior and Junior teams, and will be on sale each home-game night with a lucky number prize. Stouffville program representative is Mr. Tefl Rennie, while Cec. Hendricks of Toronto, will handle the city portion of the job.
Markham Millionaires turned out in full force at Oshawa on Sunday and John Wegg reports the boys to be in good physical condition. It seems that many of them have been skating for weeks at the Royal and other artificial ice arenas. Norman Stunden, Polly Minton and Mac Clement showed up for practice along with the rest of the Markham regulars.
At least four evenings per week are booked solid by the new Arena here throughout the fall and winter. Two of the nights, Wednesday and Saturday, will be taken up with public skating, while there will be two O.H.A. home clubs operating on two other nights. The Maple Leaf Juniors expect to be adopted by Stouffville fans as their Junior ‘B’ entry, and they’ll play all home games here, in addition to practice and exhibition contests. This snappy Junior outfit is operated by Cec. Hendricks, well-known auto salesman. They’re working our regularly at the Royals rink in Toronto, waiting for Stouffville to open. The Senior ‘B’ club here managed by E. O’Neill and coached by Bert Fife of Toronto, will take up the fourth evening per week.
Keith Jewett, well-known with the local sport fans, is okay again following eye burns which he sustained at his trade as a plumber. Word comes to us that Bob Lawrie, last winter with Stouffville Clippers intends donning the skates again, but was laid up over then weekend when he suffered a kick from a cow at Markham Fair.
Mac Clement who threw his weight around for Stouffville a couple of years ago will be seen on this town’s Senior team this season.. He played Junior ‘B’ for Toronto University last year.
The first hockey game is scheduled in our new arena will be on Friday, Oct. 28th, when Markham has an exhibition game slated here. The arena will be operating before that date however, according to the refrigeration engineer in charge. A number of hockey clubs have arranged for practice time here right from opening date until next spring. LOCAL HOCKEY CLUB GETS COACH FROM LEAFS MARLBORO CHAIN
Stouffville Clippers have engaged Bert Fife, for the past five years connected with the Toronto Maple Leaf Marlboro farm system, as coach of this year’s team. Toronto Leafs operate a farm system ranging all the way from pro teams to juvenile, midget and bantam aggregations. Bert Fife has handled their minor hockey activities in Toronto with considerable success, and comes to v highly recommended.
Dr. S.S. Ball as accepted the presidency of the Club for another term, while Tim O’Neill will manage, and Norm baker will handle the books.
The classification of the ’49-50 Clippers is not yet definite, as to Intermediate ‘A’ or Senior ‘B’. The latter status is most likely. Biggest stumbling block with either, is a good group, and one which bring fan support along with them.
Coach Fife and Manager O’Neill called their opening practice for Oshawa last weekend, and about thirty prospects turned up. Another practice is being held in the Motor City this weekend, after which it is expected that the team will move into their new arena here in town.
Markham and Stouffville are working together in order to prevent themselves from being shoved in to a group with such long trips and little returning gate receipts. Manager Watts of Markham discussed the matter with the Stouffville’s club publicity man on Monday night, and he is definitely apposed to a small group, one comprising only city opposition, or one which would send the local clubs as far away as Peterborough to Trenton. Both clubs share these sentiments. ICE NEXT WEEK?
Lined Engineers tell us they expect to have ice in the Stouffville Arena, a week from this Saturday, and arena officials trust they do. However, there is considerable work to be done yet, such as completing the building of the east end gangway and ice wall, and finishing the sand fill, and the first practice hours have been contracted for on October 22nd. HELP WANTED
There is a host of odd jobs to be done around the new arena in “finishing up,” and anyone who can give a day or two of their time, either to paint, carpenter, or on a shovel should contact the manager at the building. Arrangements can be made to purchase a share in the Arena by supplying much-needed labour. Many local men rallied to the assistance of the arena committee already in painting and other work, and their help is certainly appreciated. Everyone is proud of our new arena, and anxious to see it open, and looking as spic and span as possible, thus the widespread interest in helping where possible.
Stouffville Clippers will practice at Oshawa this Friday night beginning at 8 o’clock. The should be the last practice on foreign ice.
Curling will possibly take up some time in the new arena this winter, at least indications point that way at the moment. Curlers in Stouffville, Locust Hill, Markham and Unionville are said to be interested. the Arena directors agreed at a recent meeting that the building would be made available for the “roaring” sport. The move to use the new arena would be a real boon to curlers who are troubled year after year by the fickle weatherman and his soft ice. The game would also provide a least running expenses for the arena at times when the refrigeration plant might be running at a loss.
Both Markham Millionaires and Stouffville Clippers expect to settle a lot of their player questions this week. Many of the boys, particularly the local district lads, have been up to the old game again this season, of keeping as many teams on a a string as possible, before deciding to which club they will affix their allegiance. Both clubs are going to clamp down on this practice as neither Markham or Stouffville are going to finance practices for players who have no intention of signing with them. A half a dozen players have been practicing with both the Millionaires and the Clippers for two weeks, and will this week have to decide to either get in or out of one or the other of the clubs. Markham management doesn’t like it, Stouffville management doesn’t like it.

At the International Plowing Match this fall, Floyd Steckley, Stouffville was first in his class 8 tractors (time limit and no finishing). Bob Timbers won class 9 tractor (open) single furrow. George Timbers of Stouffville won the row top tractor class open to those who had not won it before.
Polly Minton will probably line up with Unionville Intermediates this winter. He along with some of the other boys have been turning out for regular practices with both the Millionaires and the Clippers and they should be in fine shape when their team is formed.
Season tickets for the forthcoming hockey season will be on sale shortly. Over a thousand seats will be reserved, and tickets exactly similar to those used at Maple Leaf gardens, Oshawa, Barrie and other well-known arenas are being secured. Season ticket holders for Junior and Senior hockey series will purchase the entire schedule of nights with playoff privileges no doubt. Information as to rates etc. will be announced in December.
It is about time the O.B.A. put its finger on the public’s pulse and did something to shorten the playoff season so that teams can wind up the season when interest in baseball is still high. In holding championship games at this time of year. teams are finding it hard to draw the support they deserve and having a headache trying to keep their players together, so said the Kitchener Record.
Bookings for ice time at the new arena are fast reaching the saturation point, many contracting for time throughout the entire winter. The T.H.L.. one of the largest contractors for ice time, will alone use up ten hours a week from December through to May. Local enthusiasts interest is not being forgotten either. Ten hours a week has been set aside by the company for the youngsters and teenagers of the town, in addition to time which will be provided for them to play their minor hockey games.
Manager O’Neill of the Clippers will have a probable lineup of the Stouffville Intermediate Club for the next issue. Ross Hockberg, Flash Kelly, Jack Drummond, Austie Baker, Les Clarke, Bill Bradbury, Don Smith are probable starters. Another dozen players are expected to be picked from this week’s practice by Coach Fife.
Markham Millionaires have gotten down to brass tacks and cut their team down for this year, Manager Harry Watt and Secretary John Wegg both agree that some changes in the lineup will be certain to follow as the season progresses but up to press time these are the boys who may take to the ice. Since Markham has too many players, some will be released or sit out certain games. Goal, Carr, Stunden; defence, B. Baker, George Scott, Clement, Percy, Fred Scott; Forwards, 1st line, Brennan, Singleton, J. Watson, 2nd line, Jewett, Sluce, Bell (Jr. A, Galt), 3rd line, G. Rumney, J. Rumney, B. Forgie, H. Forgie, J. Radcliff and Nesbitt. The third line has not been definitely decided upon but will be made up of the last six players mentioned. Carr and Stunden will alternate in goal during the season. To make sure the team is keeping with O.H.A. regulations, four players are moving into town.

MANY THRILLED WITH NEW ARENA
it was a real thrill for many as Stouffville’s big new artificial ice arena opened its doors to the public for the first hockey game on Monday evening. The smartly painted interior with its gleaming ice surface, its brilliant lighting, and spacious accommodations, were the pride and joy of the company shareholders who had made it all possible. Commenced last June, the big 225 foot building has proceeded steadily under the contract with T.A. Wilson Lumber Company. The artificial ice plant, capable of turning out fifty-five tons of ice a day, was the work of Lined Canadian Refrigeration Co. of Montreal, and operates smoothly and efficiently with its maze of valves, and automatic switches. The ice surface is 177 feet long and 75 feet wide. There is accommodation for two thousand hockey fans. Reserved sections will handle nearly 1200 patrons, with rush seats and standing-room making up the balance.
The entire project has been built at a cost of $50,000, with several thousand dollars in free labour and materials being contributed over and above that amount.
The official opening night is being scheduled for the latter part of he month, when it is expected that government and sports notables will attend.
On Friday night Markham Millionaires made their pre-season appearance at their local only minus their hockey sticks and skates. It was their fall dance held regularly for the past few seasons to give the supporting fans a chance to meet the management and players both old and new while the platform and were introduced by Secretary John Wegg. Ronnie Bell, last year with Galt Red Wings, and Norman Stunden were unable to the present. We think the boys will probably feel more at home skating before the crowd than standing before them on a platform, but only time will settle this score of course. CLIPPERS LOSE EXHIBITION 6-5
(
After taking the lead in the first period the Junior ‘B’ Maple Leafs on to win by a score or 6-5 over the local Clippers on Monday night. Hard checking was featured throughout the entire game with the husky Juniors showing an edge in close plays around the net. Many of the local boys have not had the necessary and will no doubt improve as the season goes on. The veteran of last year’s team, Bill Bradbury, showed up best for the Clippers. The goalkeepers for both teams turned in good performances. The gleaming ice and spotless arena added to the enjoyment of the game.
On Thursday night the local boys journey to Peterborough for the game with the Legions with the return contest here on Monday. A meeting between these two Senior ‘B’ clubs will give the boys a good rest in fast company. SEVEN- TEAM SENIOR GROUP BEING WORKED ON
A possible seven-team senior hockey loop may be in the making here. The clubs are Stouffville, Markham, Georgetown, Weston, Brampton, Oakville and Weston. The furthest distance to be travelled by any team would be 60 miles.
Most of these clubs have artificial ice, and the schedule could be started around Dec. 1st, which would certainly make for a great season in a group of this size.
Both Stouffville and Markham strongly opposed being tossed in with any Peterborough teams because of the heavy traveling expenses. LOCAL HOCKEY SETUP OVERTURNED BY NEW OHA RULINGS
That Stouffville Intermediate ‘B’ entry, and Markham’s Intermediate ‘A’ card both went into the waste basket last week, when the O.H.A. executive, meeting in special session, laid down some new rulings that hoisted both teams into Senior ‘B’ rating. This makes the change of Stouffville getting into the Yonge getting in to Yonge St. grouping with Newmarket and Sutton definitely out.
To remain in Intermediate company, Stouffville and Markham have been barred from using players more than five miles from town. However all territory up to Toronto’s city limits, Oshawa or Lindsay limits, is free territory to both clubs. That is, neither club can hold a player from the other, just because he happens to live closer. the contentious six-player rule also went into the discard, instead, the four imports, who may be brought in by Senior ‘B’ teams, must be in residence here by Nov. 1st.
Manager Tim O’Neill of Stouffville and Manager Harry Watts of Markham both attended the O.H.A. meeting.
There was considerable controversy among the members of the OHA executive over the changes and counter changes being laid down, according to the local executives present. CLIPPER PERSONNEL NARROWED DOWN
Stouffville Clippers, local Senior hopes for the season, turned out to practice twice this week in preparation twice this week in preparation for their tilt in Peterborough on Friday night, with a return match being played in Stouffville on Monday evening next.
Coach Fife is cutting down his recruits, and the team will be pretty well set by next week, Joe Irvine who handled the goal-tending in the first period Monday night for Clippers, may get the regular goal spot. He played mercantile last season.
George Wright, crew-cut Marlboro Junior and a chattel of the New York Rangers, has a steady defence post, along with Austie Baker and Ross Hochberg.
Newcomers, who have caught a place on the team include Jack Drummond, Scottish league player, Don Gault who played in the same circuit. He’s twenty-nine years old, and has plenty of experience under his belt.
Earl Rose saw service with Collingwood Shipbuilders, Jim Kelly was with Crofton AC Kelly handles a wing spot with Les Clark and centre Polly Minton.
Ray Corcoran who played last year for St. Catharines Senior ‘A’ is not a big boy defensively, but is credited with packing as many bumps as the best of them who care to tangle with him. Harry Southworth is another regular, last season with West York mercantile.
Bill Bradbury is a definite starter, and turned in a nice performance at Monday’s exhibition. Several more newcomers were given the once over at Tuesday and Wednesday’s practice sessions.

CLIPPERS BREAK EVEN IN FIRST SENIOR GAME
Local Blow Three Goal Lead with Needless Penalties
The old fact that you can’t win hockey games sitting on the penalty bench was never truer than in the Stouffville-Meteor Senior O.H.A. game blew a tidy three goal lead in the last period winding up with a 7-all tie, Stouffville had no less than four men on the penalty bench at one time in the final frame.
But for their rash of last period penalties Stouffville Clippers would have been full value for a win. They led 4-1 at the end of the first period and 6-3 at the end of the second.
Gault and Lewis were the big guns for the locals, Gault getting two counters and Lewis three Gord Lewis, one of the homebrews, was very affective with his team-mates, Jackie Thomas and Polly Minton. He got the opening goal of the game in just 24 seconds, Minton assisting Les Clark clicked again for the Clippers at 4.45, set up by Sails and Couch, and Lewis came back to combine with Thomas at the six-minute mark for his second goal. He copped another unassisted as the period ended. Butler getting Toronto Meteors lone tally.
Formica was a standout for Meteors and scored two of their seven goals.
The local defence of Hochberg, Baker, Mills and Campbell played much better than heretofore, picking up the opposition passes and feeding their forwards ahead.
Gault’s two period, Sails and Couch assisting. Meteors were short two men for a spell in the squeeze session but the Clippers failed to capitalize.
Campbell, Mills, Hochberg and Couch formed the local penalty parade in the last period for roughing, boarding, and hooking.
Sprague nearly stole the game in the last period, when Couch made the drastic error of coming directly in front of his own net and had the puck taken away and batted in giving the Meteors a 7-6 lead.
Ross Hochberg saved the day when he got back into action at 18.53 to notch the trying goal on play set up by Hopper and Campbell. NOTICE TO SKIERS
A meeting will be held at the home of Harry Schell, Victoria St., Stouffville, on Monday evening, December 19th, at 8 o’clock. All these interested in forming a Stouffville Ski Club to be affiliated with Sky-Loft at Dagmar are asked to attend.

PLENTY OF HOLIDAY ENTERTAINMENT HERE
No one should go short on entrainment on the holiday here, Dec. 26th. The Stanley Theatre is presenting a standout performance in “The Great Dan Patch,” while the Stouffville Arena is providing free public skating in the afternoon, and there’s an O.H.A. Senior hockey game at night with Collingwood Shipbuilders.
You’ve got a real chance to take home your Christmas turkey from the hockey game this Friday night. A nice plump bird is being given away as the lucky program prize so be sure you get one. This Christmas treat has been donated to the hockey club by Schell’s Meat Market. SIX-TEAM JUVENILE HOCKEY GROUP — FOUR EXPECTED IN MIDGET
A six-team OMHA Juvenile hockey group has been lined up including Stouffville, Claremont, Unionville, Newmarket and Aurora. The Stouffville, Unionville and Aurora entries will be Juvenile ‘C’. Claremont Juvenile ‘D’, and Newmarket Juvenile ‘B’ rating, according to district convener Jim Austin of Stouffville.
In the Midget division, four teams are expected, although the Newmarket entry was not confirmed at time of writing. They are, Richmond Hill, Stouffville and Aurora in ‘C’ category and Newmarket, a ‘B’ entry. The higher listing for Newmarket is necessary in both cases due to the larger population of this centre.
Stouffville Juveniles under the guidance of Fred Gould are shaping up here each Thursday afternoon, but are still understaffed, and appeal for more boys of Juvenile age to fill up the team. The Midget entry holds forth at the Arena each Friday afternoon.
Every effort should be put forth by service clubs and other organizations to help in every way they can with the taken it upon of those few who have taken it upon themselves to give hockey leadership to these minor teams. While there is little or no remuneration financially from operating these clubs, the benefit derived by the younger lads in training and sportsmanship cannot be estimated in dollars and cents MILLIONAIRES TAKE TWO FROM CLIPPERS
(
Markham 12, Stouffville 4
A good crowd of 900 turned out on Friday night to witness the first league game between Markham Millionaires and Stouffville Clippers. The Markham boys were out for every goal they could get and kept Harper in the net busy throughout the game. The locals started fast and hemmed the visitors into their own end for the first five minutes. Only some great stops by Goalie Carr, held the Clippers off the score sheet. From then on it was Markham’s night.
Brennan tallied from Singleton with two more. The third goal was hotly argued with the hometowners claiming an offside. At the thirteen minute mark Hopper broke the ice on a pass from Gault to end the period, the Clippers trailing 3-1. Eight penalties were handed out, two being majors to Rose and Perry for fighting.
In the second frame Watson scored from Jewett but Thomas equalled the tally for the Clippers on a hard drive from about twenty feet out. Markham then added two more from the sticks of Bell and Watson. At the half way mark Couch let go with a bullet shot on a pass from Minton that had Carr beaten all the way. Two minutes later Brennan counted again from Singleton and B. Forgie added another the scoring for the period.
Only two minutes had passed in the third period when Sluce scored unassisted but the Lewis, Minton, Thomas line struck back with Lewis sinking the rubber behind Carr. Singleton picked up his third and fourth goals of the night and Sluce fired in his second at 11.43 to end the scoring in the game. Aside from the first period the game was cleanly played with only three penalties being handed out. Singleton was the best for the Millionaires with four goals and an assist. Minton picked up two points for the Clippers.
Markham 11, Stouffville 2
A fair crowd was on hand for the return game between the Millionaires and Clippers on Monday night. As in the first encounter Markham struck first on a goal by Brennan with Singleton and Perry drawing assists. Sluce then added another and Bell put his team three up from Clement at 16.22. Polly Minton encountered one of the neatest rushes of the night, drawing the opposition’s defence to one side and laying over a perfect pass to Bradbury. Bill made no mistake and beat Stunden cleanly with a knee-high shot. Vic Sluce picked up his second goal of the night from Baker to end the period.
Stouffville opened the scoring in the second frame with Couch netting the rubber on a neat passing play from Lewis and Thomas. Brennan beat Harper a minute later with Clement again assisting. Only a matter of minutes had elapsed when Clement drove in two more, the first from Brennan and the second from Singleton. Not to be outdone by his buddy George Rumney also counted twice, his goals being only twenty-eight seconds apart to give the Millionaires a 9-2 lead. Singleton ended the period on a goal from Brennan at 16.50.
The third period was a see-saw affair with both teams going scoreless until G. Rumney performed the hat trick from Sluce.
Clement played another strong game on defence scoring two goals and assisting on two others. Brennan and Sluce each scored a pair.
For the Clippers the forwards played well with Bradbury deserving special mention. The defence and goal proved to be still weak spots in the local’s armour, bur since scheduled games have just begun a lot can happen before the final whistle has sounded.
Referee Bellamy, one of the OHA top-notchers in the game today, did a swell job of officiating in both games. Ken Laushway handled the linesman’s duties in the first game and Jim Granger in the second.
That was a new gesture on the part of the Stouffville Arena management to throw the big ice palace open free for public skating on Monday, the holiday afternoon, and over three hundred folks and their holiday visitors availed themselves.

That was a new gesture on the part of the Stouffville Arena management to throw the big ice palace open free for public skating on Monday, the holiday afternoon, and over three hundred folks and their holiday visitors availed themselves.
Permission has been granted by the OHA to Stouffville Senior Hockey Club to play Herbie Rose, and the same privilege has been given Markham Millionaires for Dick Perry, although the two boys are just slightly over the Yonge St. boundary line. In the case of the Scott brothers, Markham’s defence pair, they have been moved “into Canada” by the Millionaires and although the change in residence for the two is going to cost the Markham club upwards of four figures, the management considers the move worth it. O.H.A. PLANS TO COOL OFF HOT-HEADED FANS
The hot-headed hockey fan is about to be cooled off.
George Panter, assistant-secretary of the Ontario Hockey Association, said last week that he hopes to run these types right out of of rinks. He pointed out that two men who leaped over the boards during a game at Toronto’s Varsity Arena recently and attacked the referee were taken to court and fined.
“We’re are going to go after them,” Panter said. “It won’t be enough to just put them out of the rink. We’ll take them to court at every opportunity.”
He said that one referee had a cup of coffee thrown in his face and was hit by an orange at Stratford. “The person who threw the orange was put out of the rink but we’re going to see if we can press charges against the person that threw the coffee.”
Panter also commented on the O.H.A. decision to have Windsor replay nine games they won while playing with four ineligible players. HOMESTERS TROUNCE MIDLAND FLYERS 14-3
(
On Tuesday night Midland Flyers made their first appearance of the season on the local arena and were soundly beaten by the Clippers 14-3. It was a great night for the local boys who took advantage of every break to boost their individual scoring totals. With Mulholland between the posts for the locals and a tight defence on the blue line the forwards took on new heart and played on of their best games to date.
Minton started the scoring parade picking up a pass at centre and skating in alone to beat Gaynon cleanly in Th. Flyers net. Hochberg then added another from Lewis eleven seconds later to give his team a 2-0 lead. Couch netted one for Gault and Sails scored from Drummond to end the Clippers scoring for the period. Duggan beat Mulholland at the eighteen minute mark for the Flyers first goal.
Less than a minute had passed in the second period when Lewis tallied from baker and Couch scored his second from Mills to make the score 6-1. Henderson of the Flyers notched one unassisted for his team’s only second period goal. The Clippers kept up the pressure throughout the period and added three more, Couch getting two and Sails one.
The third period was a repeat performance as the Clippers continued to pile up a commanding lead. At 6.20 Sails fired his second marker from Drummond and Hopper, while Drummond scored alone a minute later. Herbie Rose playing a standout game on defence all night scored fro Couch at 9.45 and Clarke picked up a second point from Minton three minutes later. O’Hare of the Flyers scored his teams third goal but Rose fired in his second tally near the end of the period to give the Clippers a 14-3 decision.
Midland showed a woefully weak aggregation, with Wheeler, who saw service with one of the standout army teams during the war being the standout performer. Two of the regular lineup were missing and a trio of minor performers were pressed into service for the night.

SUNDAY HOCKEY PRACTICE ALLOWED, BUT PUBLIC BARRED
Stouffville has its own Sunday sports problem, not so serious as Toronto, however.
By a vote of 250 to 69 shareholders, in the new Stouffville Arena decided to allow Sunday hockey practices, but banned the public from watching.
Leading the group objecting to any activity at the arena on Sunday were the Rev. Douglas Davis and Rev. Norman Rowan, supported by W.D. Atkinson.
Mr. Rowan charged that three or four shareholders, whose main consideration was the extra profit made by the operation of the arena on Sunday, had tried to dominate proceedings. He said Sunday operation for money was a violation of the law of the land and God.
Dr. Stanley Ball, president of the Stouffville Hockey Club, led the pro-Sunday practice faction with a resolution leaving to the arena’s directors to decide who might be admitted. This was withdrawn after much agreement. The motion allowing no one but hockey players in the rink on Sunday was approved. George Rodanz and F. L. Button also spoke on the pro- Sunday aspect.
Toronto Meteors have done it again. Tied Orillia Bulldogs on Friday night, to make it four straight tie games for the Toronto club. Stouffville, Markham, Midland, and now Orillia have all come out even with the Meteors. Markham and Stouffville are still tied for first place in the group standing with nine points each, Meteors are in second spot, Collingwood third, Midland fourth, Orillia and Eclipse bringing up the rear. However, the Millionaires have one game in hand over the Clippers, and Eclipse AC have only played two games so far.
Lloyd Johnston of the Kitchener record, up-to-date western Ontario daily has this to say about the conditions he maintains exist between the OHA executive and the rural centres.
In the lean years, the OHA catered a great deal more to rural communities than in seasons just past. The Gold Dust twins, George Dudley and George Panter, probably have a good reason for change of heart, but since Bill Hewitt languishes in the background it’s not hard to realize why the W.O.A.A. is rapidly making inroads on OHA territory. Not so many years ago, if the management of a hockey team from a community numbering under 3,000 people had a beef, the OHA, through Mr. Hewitt, usually granted a fair hearing. In recent years, the country cousins get the familiar brush-off, is its small wonder Tory Gregg’s organization boasts over 200 entries this season. A proem example of the ridiculous relations between the OHA and small-town teams is evident in the 1949-50 groupings. LIONS LEND A HAND WITH MINOR HOCKEY
Stouffville Lions Club id having a share in supporting the local minor hockey teams for the young lads of the town and immediate district. The boys are entered in Midget and Juvenile OMHA, and will play double-headers in the local arena on Monday nights. Half the cost of using the arena for this purpose is being supplied by the Lions Club for the season, or so long as the local clubs are in the running. An admission of 25c and 15c is being charged for the two games, and the balance of the arena costs it is hoped, will be obtained in this way. SATURDAY NIGHT HOCKEY BEGINS THIS WEEK
Something new for Stouffville will be Saturday night hockey games, commencing this week, Jan. 7th. The opposition on this occasion will be the Toronto Meteors, who are picked by some as the team to beat in this OHA Big Seven Senior group. Stouffville Clippers are riding the crest of a four-game winning streak, and will be out to make it five in a row the Saturday.
Public skating will be moved from Saturday to Friday which is quite a popular evening particularly with the young people. There is also public skating on Wednesday nights. OMHA SCHEDULES GET UNDERWAY
The local OMHA Midget group got underway with the local lads meeting Richmond Hill here in the opener. The group is comprised of Richmond Hill, Stouffville, Newmarket and Aurora with the schedule stretching from Jan 2nd until Feb. 1st.
The Juvenile group including Stouffville, Aurora, and Newmarket gets underway at Newmarket on Jan. 10th. These three clubs are Juvenile ‘B’ and ‘C’, Newmarket holding the ‘B’ category through population.
An OMHA Juvenile ‘D’ group comprising Unionville, Beaverton and Keswick will also commence Jan. 10th.
All Minor League games at Stouffville and Newmarket will be doubleheaders, as will the games at Keswick and Beaverton. CLIPPERS SWAMP SWANSEA SENTINELS 14-6
(
The Senior Clippers continued their goal-blazing form on Monday and completely overwhelmed the supposedly powerful Swansea Sentinels 14-6.
Gallagher for the Sentinels scored on 20 seconds of the first period, but that was the last time the light flickered on local goalie Mulholland until midway through the last stanza.
The Clippers for their part swamped the visitors with five goals in the first period, six in the second, and another three in the final period.
Bill Bradbury and Gord Lewis led the scoring parade, each getting three counters, the former’s all coming in the second period. Lewis also counted three assists. Les Clarke and Don Couch each notched two, with Sails, Rose, Gault and Drummond one each.
Gallagher was the best for Swansea with three of his club’s half dozen dozen. CLIPPERS SHOW GREAT SCORING POWER IN WIN OVER ECLIPSE A.C.
Winning their fourth straight victory, Stouffville Clippers displayed a much-improved club, and great scoring power in their O.H.A. Senior trouncing of Eclipse AC 7-3 Friday night.
About eight hundred fans took in the show and were very pleased with what they saw.
Scoring honours were well distributed throughout the local team, only George Sails counting for more than one tally. Other marksmen were Couch, Hochberg, Lewis, Baker and Gault. Don Gault also chalked up three assists.
Bill Mulholland, Clipper goalie, turned in a good night, although he was not tested to the same extent as Hutz in the Eclipse twine. Incidentally it was Mulholland’s fourth win since joining the Clippers. Hutz was by far the busiest man on the ice, as he warded off streams of rubber from Stouffville’s sticks.
Despite Stouffville’s territorial advantage the Eclipse crew held to a 3-3 tie until midway through the final period when Hochberg clicked on a screened shot which Hutz had no chance to save. This tie-breaker took a lot of the zip out of the visitors, and the Clippers rolled in three more before the end of the period.
Big Gord Ecclestone, former Marlboro star, was a tower of strength on the Eclipse defence, and made a solo rush the entire length of the ice to score unassisted in the first period.

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC
The Stouffville Arena is open on Sunday for commercialized sport. That is, a number of hockey teams pay to use the rink each Sunday. Is this what Stouffville wants? The ministers of the district have been asked to state their attitude towards this action on part of the directors and shareholders in voting to use the arena on Sunday. The undersigned ministers clarify their stand in this matter in the following letter to the public:
We, the undersigned wish the public to know that we have sought earnestly and kindly to persuade the directors and shareholders to keep the Arena closed for all purposes on the Lord’s Day. They have refused to do so. Because we have sounded out our protests and warnings regarding this thing we believe, before God, that we have delivered our souls, and are free from blood do all men.
We would further remind those who have broken the commandments of God in abusing the sanctity of the Lord’s day, that there is a message for you in Ezekiel Ch. 5:7-9. “Therefore thus saith the Lord God; because ye multiplied more than the nations that are round about you, and have not walked in my statutes, neither have done according to the judgments of the nations that are round about you; Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, I, even I, am against thee, and will execute judgements in the midst of thee in the sight of nations. And I will not do any more the like, because of all thine abominations.”
And we would further remind you that in refusing to close the Arena on the Lord’s Day you have worked not only against the ministers of the community, but you have fought against God. We therefore believe that all men must stand before the judgement seat of God, that we will be requested to give an account some day to the Judge of all the earth for the action you have taken.
We are aware, also, that keeping he rink open Sundays is not merely for the love of sports, but that dividends might be forthcoming. Once again we bring you face to face withe Word of God, which says, “Beware of covetousness, for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesses.”
After all what is the real issue of Sunday sports? To state the matter simply the Sunday sport issue is a subtle effort on the part of the forces of evil, and those associated with them, to destroy the foundations upon which our Christian civilization and culture rest. Sunday sports, therefore is a violation of the Word of God.

The Clippers will have their first meeting with Orillia in the northern town this Thursday night. Orillia, a band of players made up to a great part of former Junior ‘A’ players are beginning to click. They tied Toronto Meteors and held Markham Millionaires to a 3-3- tie Saturday night.

Stouffville Clippers have acquired a second goalie in Dan Kewley, regular netminder with Windsor Spitfires last year. Kewley has been working out with the local squad. Bill Mulholland, regular Clipper goal-tender, had been putting up a superb effort since he took over the job, and the one game in six the Club dropped since he started was one of his best performances. The team requires two class A goalies ready for action.
Stouffville Arena’s reasonable practice-time rates are appreciated by the Toronto Hockey League. In a recent report, the T.H.L. announced that their organization was financially ahead on their games played here every Tuesday and Thursday, while they were considerably in the red on games played at such Toronto rinks as Ravina, where the per hour charges are double those in Stouffville. PARENT’S CONSENT NEEDED UNDER OHA PROPOSITION
The Canadian Amateur Hockey Association received from George Panter last week a motion that no professional agreement signed by a hockey player under 21 years do age be valid unless signed also by parents or guardian.
He asked that the motion be presented to the National Hockey League authorities with whom the CAHA has an agreement.
Panter, representing the Ontario Hockey Association, asked in his motion that a boy, signing a professional agreement, be given a duplicate copy of it.
President Jim Dunn of the Manitoba branch commented he knew of boys going to professional clubs’ training camps who were told they had to sign a ‘C’ form before they could get transportation back home. he did not name any club .
The ‘C’ form gives the professional club the right to the signing boy’s services if and when he turns professional and may be signed when the boy is as young as 16.
A special CAHA committee will place the matter before NHL authorities.

(Jim Thomas)
Seven hundred turned out on Saturday night to witness the league’s two evenly matches teams, Stouffville Clippers and Toronto Meteors battle it out in the local arena. No one could deny the game had everything from wild free-for-alls to fast, smooth passing plays from one end to the other.
The Meteors started very fast and before five seconds had ticked by Sherban beat Mulholland from close in. After many close scrambles Couch banged one in from Lewis to tie the score and end the period.
The second twenty minutes was a repeat performance of the first with the city boys blinking the light at 1.22, Montgomery doing the chore from Sadler. Les Clarke who played one of his best games of the season scored the tying goal from Thomas and Couch.
The third period told the tale and produced everything the spectators could wish wish to see. Sails tallied at 4.07 from Hopper and Gault while Gault added another from Minton to put the Clippers two up. Finding themselves on the losing end of the score the Meteors put up a powerful attack and evened the count. Kewley got the first and Formica tied it up two minutes later. from then on Stouffville carried the play with Sails getting the winner from Hopper.
With time running out the Meteors became desperate and in a vain attempt to even the count pulled Buffy from the net. In a wild scramble around the Clippers’ cage Formica of the Meteors became involved in a wild fist swinging battle with Mulholland. All the players joined in and it was hard to see who was hitting who. When the smoke cleared two minute penalties were handed out to each team.
With Couch leading the inspired Clippers to the attack the Meteors became momentarily hemmed on their own end. Checking his man on the blue line Couch sped in and fired the rubber into the empty cage. Not satisfied with this, the speedy winger performed the hat trick on a pass from Clarke to end the game. PLAYERS, FANS, POLICE IN SATURDAY NIGHT HOCKEY BRAWL
Bad reports that are understood to have been tabled to the OHA regarding the Toronto Meteors and some of their club executives got a further airing at Stouffville Saturday night during their 7-4 trouncing at the hands of the Clippers.
referee harry Morrison was forewarned of possible trouble, and got it. he called upon the local police to evict the meteor trainer from the player’s box during the second period when this “gentleman” chose to use some uncomplimentary language on the OHA official. This same trainer accosted local coach Bert Fife following the game and was promptly “dusted off.”
Player clashed in fisticuffs in the last ten minutes of the game at the mouth of the Clipper net, as the Meteors went wild in their efforts to tie the score. While only two majors were meted out, the visitors showed their bitterness in defeat as play continued.
The final bell had barely died away when a wild donnybrook broke loose in the gangway to the players’ dressing-rooms. Goalie Bill Mulholland who had turned in a superb job all night was attached by Joe Formica of Meteors. Immediately the scene was an uproar, with local fans, visiting p[layers and Clippers throwing lusty punches in all directions. Formica, the instigator of the trouble was nearly turned inside out, and much of his gear torn from his back.
The nearby exit was opened and some of the pugilists doused in the sub-zero snowbanks to cool out. Local police were called in but only moved in after the fire had died away. However, it was not a job for a single officer, and local customers appeared to have the visitors well in hand.
Whether the report of this game will bring members of the Toronto Meteors on the OHA carpet is yet to be seen. Meteors are picked by some Toronto sportswriters to bring a Senior ‘B’ championship tot eh Queen City, but their bid for a title may be unceremoniously cut short, if they become embroiled in many more outbreaks such as occurred Saturday. LOCAL WIN STREAK SNAPPED BY COLLINGWOOD.
After chalking up five successive wins, four league games and one exhibition, Stouffville Clippers came up with a “bad night” Thursday and were trounced 7-3 by Collingwood Shipbuilders. It was the third straight win for the Shipbuilders in the OHA Big Seven Senior group.
“Nip” Spooner led the Shipbuilders with two goals. Gowing, C. Sandell, Greene, Smart and Portland were their other marksmen.
Drummond, Hochberg and Bradbury were the marksmen for the Clippers. Baker and Minton sharing the assists.
The Clippers were definitely off their game, and even the regular steady heads being unable to click in any sort of fashion. Collingwood, on the other hand, were checking hard.
While it was Mulholland’s first lose in six games since taking over the goal tending job, he was perhaps, the only outstanding figure on the ice for the Clippers and saved time and time again with Shipbuilders all around him.
Collingwood held a 5-1 lead at one stage in the last period. Clippers put on their best spurt of the night in this period and closed the score to 5-3, but big Jack Portland, ex-Boston Bruin settled this belated rally with the sixth Collingwood goal at the fifteen minute mark.
More than 1500 fans attended the game in the new quarter million dollar arena.

Messrs. Walter Brillinger, Dinty Hodgind, Gar Lehman and Ray Fleury, were in Midland last week competing in the curling bonspeil there.
Stouffville Bantams are going to get into action this next week it is expected. Tefl Rennie and Fred Williams are looking after these pint-sized hockey players, and expect to take their charges to Newmarket this week for a game. What these youngster lack in size is certainly made up in enthusiasm.
Important news for anglers from Queen’s Park. It was announced Monday that the speckled trout limit in Ontario has been reduced to 15 fish per day, except in Norfolk County where it will be 10 a day. Previous limit was 20 fish, or a total of ten pounds. the new ruling eliminated the poundage limit. Minimum legal length remains at seven inches. RUMOUR-MONGERS IN MARKHAM IRK LOCAL ARENA OFFICIALS
There is considerable abusive criticism being circulated in Markham and district of late concerning the Markham Hockey Club and its relationships with the Stouffville Arena Co. officials, and these same officials believe that in all fairness and to stamp out the absolute “bunk” that biased individuals are taking delight in spreading, that the facts should be made known.
While it is true that the Stouffville Arena has been booked to the hilt, and is unable to provide Markham with ice on twenty-four hours notice as they asked, it is also true that Markham Hockey Club was given privileges in the Stouffville Arena this winter accorded to no other hockey team and this fact should be enlightening to Markham public in general.
The facts are these: Markham Hockey Club was provided free practice time in the Stouffville Arena from the time they commenced to play last fall until a couple of weeks ago when they went to their home ice; Markham hockey club received 50% of the gross gate receipts for all games played in Stouffville and in addition were given $50 expense money when the attendance was over one thousand; Markham hockey club was given the opportunity of booking Monday night in the Arena at the time the Maple Leaf Juniors withdrew from competition; our neighbours have also been told by the Arena management that arrangements can be made to use the Arena if it is booked a reasonable time in advance and the date is kept.
Markham declined to take over the open Monday night dates in Stouffville, so the OMHA took them over; they also declined to book ice in advance. While this was perfectly in order, when local officials Arena officials leaned over backwards to cement good relationships with their southern neighbours they were astounded that certain individuals there are endeavouring to whip up bad feeling by stating that the Stouffville Arena officials refused to have them in the rink.
Markham hockey players themselves are not responsible for this wave of hocus propaganda since they know the facts, at least that is the belief of this reporter. They are privileged to play where-ever bad whenever they please, but the Stouffville Arena executive is not going to have itself blacklisted by a few warped-minded individuals who always glory in spreading this kind of junk. MAJOR PENALTY SHOT OPENS ORILLIA GAME
Stouffville Clippers blew one of their big chances to stay on top of the current OHA Senior hockey loop on Thursday night, when they fell apart in Orillia to the dismal tune of 16-3.
The rink was bad, the lights were bad, the refereeing was bad, and just as bad were the Clippers. Couch and Drummond scored for the local blueshirts in the first period, and the period ended 3-2 for Orillia. However in the second period, matters went from bad to worse. Orillia pulled off some nice passing plays in front of Mulholland, the Stouffville boys seemed powerless to prevent them.
The first goal of the game was a major penalty shot, the first one to be awarded in a long time. Mills pulled the Orillia player down as he sailed in alone on Bill Mulholland. Since the penalty shot was scored, no penalty was given to the Stouffville player who had been the cause of it all in the first place.
The Bombers added four more goals in the second period to take a commanding lead. Herbie Rose clicked for the Clippers’ third goal just as the third period got under way and local fans who were present in considerable numbers took heart that their favourites might be on the long trail back. But the fire soon went out and Orillia scored nine more to give the Clippers their worst shellacking of the season.
Clarke was a standout figure in the Bomber net, for Stouffville did come very close many times.
The largest crowd to see a game in Orillia this season was on hand, for Stouffville had been billed as league-leader and the fans expected a real tussle.

Stouffville played shorthanded on two occasions, but Newmarket failed to capitalize.

There is no truth in the rumour current this week that Dick Perry, Markham Millionaire, had received a year’s suspension following a fracas in Markham’s game with Orillia recently.

Scoring four goals in ten minutes in the first period on Saturday night, Orillia Bombers took a commanding lead which carried them to an 11-6 win over the Stouffville Clippers in a Senior ‘B’ game here. It was the second loss to the Bombers for the Clippers, and dropped them points back of the Markham Millionaires.
Bowen scored five goals fro Orillia and assisted on three others, and Paine collected three and five assists.
Stouffville seemed lost in the first period when Orillia took a 7-1 lead. They came to life in the second and third frame to make a real game out of it for the eleven hundred hundred fans, but the damage was done, and goalie Preston stood off the local threats for minute at a time.
Milton got the only Stouffville tally in the first period, Lewis scored two, one in the third and one in the second. Hopper, Thomas and Clark were the other local scorers.
The game was very clean, with no penalties in the first period, five in the second and three in the third, all for minor infractions.

CLIPPERS LOSE TO LOWLY FLYERS
Stouffville Clippers dropped their Senior OHA hockey game to the lowly Midland Flyers on Tuesday night by the score of 6-5 edge as the last minute of time approached and the Stouffville goalie was taken off in an effort to tie the count. As in many cases, the move backfired, and Midland clinched the game with their seventh goal.
The win is only Midland’s third of the season and the loss did not affect Stouffville’s position in place. MIDGETS TRIM THE HILL 5-4
Stouffville Midgets came through with their fourth straight victory on Monday night when they downed Richmond Hill 5-4 in a scheduled OMHA game here.
Bunt Lewis and Bud Lehman led the local lads with a pair of goals each, while Harper scored the other Stouffville tally. Joe Lewis, Bud Lehman and Procenko collected assists.
Tomlinson, Youngberg, Van Dyke and Hood scored for Richmond Hill. There were nine penalties meted out, five to the home club and four to the visitors. A RECORD
We think that we’re safe in saying that no sport event ever staged in Stouffville drew as large crowd as that gathered here for the Senior hockey game Saturday night.
There were 1802 cash customers, added to which was the free list which would bring the number present very close to 1900.
There were 1366 paid at the game in Newmarket last week. Markham and Stouffville drew 1400 to their first meeting last year. MIDLAND THE SENIOR OPPOSITION SATURDAY
This Saturday night Stouffville Clippers will play host to Midland Flyers, as they start down the second half of the Big Seven schedule, ten games to go. While the Clippers piled up a comfortable point margin in the early part of the season, the other clubs have been rounding into shape and have been rounding into shape and have been whittling away at the local lead until the home club is on even fourth place unless it pulls itself up smartly.
Orillia have already tied the Clippers, after a poor start and Clippers, after a poor start, and Meteors are right on their heels just a couple of points back.

DON HARMON PACES MIDGETS IN 3-1 WIN OVER AURORA
Don Harmon came up with two goals at Aurora on Friday night to give Stouffville Midgets a 3-1 win over their neighbours in an OMHA league fixture.
Eddie Murphy was the other Stouffville scorer, with Wilson getting Aurora’s lone tally. John Davis was exceptionally effective in the Stouffville net. LEWIS AND COUCH ON TOP IN LOCAL POINT-GETTING
Gord Lewis and Don Couch, two of the Stouffville Clippers best performers, are on top of the heap so far as points are concerned. Lewis pulled one point ahead following Saturday’s game here with a total of 28, while Couch has 27. Couch has scored 14 goals against 16 for Lewis.
There is not a man on the team who has not at least several points to his credit. Lewis and Couch are well out i front, while it’s a close race between the next half dozen performers, having all tallied from ten to seventeen points.
Injuries have also played a part, keeping some players out of the lineup for as many as five players.
Dint Scott, one of the better wingers over the past few seasons, has rejoined Orillia Bombers, and will add plenty of punch to the already potent Orillia crew whose best scoring threats to date have been Ab Bowen and Clary Payne. Scott is a former Barrie and Collingwood star. HUGE CROWD OF NEARLY 2000 SEE LOCAL CLIPPERS THUMPED BY MARKHAM TO THE TUNE OF 10-4
(Jim Thomas)
Before 1800 fans, the largest crowd ever to jam into a local arena, the Millionaires and Clippers battled it out on Saturday night. It was the last meeting between the two local clubs during the regular schedule and the boys turned in a fast clean game from the drop of the puck.
The Watson, Sluce, Jewitt line sparked the Millionaires to their 10-4 win taking part in six of their team’s ten markers. The Clippers’ scoring was divided evenly between throughout the team with each line picking up a goal. Austie Baker notched the other Clipper tally.
A huge crowd of local supporters were naturally stunned by the reversal of their favourites. They had watched the Clippers tie Markham’s high-scoring trio up in knots at Newmarket, and felt confident of victory on home ice.
The Blueshirts were trying all the way, but were definitely not clicking. Passes went wild, and players fell into he old rut of failing to clear out of their own end until somebody usually took the puck away from them.
t the opening of the period the homesters pressed the Millionaires into their own zone and Stunden was called upon to make some fancy close in stops. At 4.37, with Rose serving a penalty, Brennan broke through and flipped the rubber to Singleton who promptly fired it home to put the visitors one up. A minute later Jewitt and Watson combined to beat Mulholland and give their team a two goal lead. Midway through the period Sails cut in from the the blue line, passed neatly to the uncovered Hopper who blinked the light and put the homesters back in the game once more. In the closing minute Fred Scott led a rush up centre ice passing to Jewitt at the blue line who in turn set Watson up to take a 3-1 lead.
At 3.32 of the second period Austie Baker checked Brennan as he cleared from his own zone and scored only to have Bert baker tally on a similar play a few seconds later.
Sluce made it five for Markham unassisted at 6.05 and J. Rumney put the visitors farther in the lead at 10.04 from Forgie.
The Clippers although trailing by four goals never let down as gault sped up through the centre passed to Minton who beat Stunden with a low drive. A minute later the Watson Jewitt and Sluce line struck again with Watson picking up his second goal of the night. In the dying seconds of the period Lewis kept his goal scoring record intact bagging one from Thomas who placed the rubber on Stunden’s doorstep.
The final period’s scoring was all Markham although on the whole both teams battled fairly even. Clement scored first followed by goals from Forgie and Jewitt to end the game.

Midget Defeat Richmond Hill In Group Play Offs
Stouffville Midgets skated circles around their larger opponents as they piled up a two goal lead in the first, added one in the second and two more in the third. Bud Lehman and Don Forgie were the big guns for the homesters firing two markers each while Harper picked up the other. Lewis picked up assist on the first two markers. The young pucksters showed lots of life and developed real three way passing plays as they pressed in on the enemy net.
Johnny Davis was particularly steady in the Stouffville net, and kicked out over thirty shots on the game.
This is the second OMHA group championship Stouffville has won in two years. last year the Juveniles doing the honours.
The Stouffville entry will now advance into the Ontario Midget playdowns, and Ajax will be their first opponents. LEW AND SAILS EACH SCORE PAIR IN METEOR DEFEAT
Led by Gord Lewis and George Saylss, Clippers trounced Toronto Meteors at Collingwood 9-4 in their Senior hockey tussle on Wednesday night. Lewis and Sayliss scored two goals each and a trio of assists to lead the local scorers.
Stouffville took a stranglehold on the game in the first period, Jack Harper shutting out the Meteors while his teammates rapped in four counters, Bradbury and Drummond getting one each and sails two.
Meteors snapped back with three in the second frame, but were matched by Stouffville by a trio of counters from the sticks of Rose, Gault and Lewis.
Thomas and Lewis added another pair in the third period to end the scoring. Minton, Couch and Drummond each picked up a pair of assists.
Herb Rose was particularly effective on the Clipper defence and Jack Harper earned a star for his goal-tending performance. UNIONVILLE WINS GROUP HONOURS
( By Jim Thomas)
Unionville’s heavier and more experienced players proved themselves the better team as they took the Juvenile Group Championship in two games straight. Holding a two goal lead from their home game the Unionville boys handed the homesters an 8-5 set back on their home ice to take the round 18-13.
McGee opened the scoring for the visitors unassisted and trunk added another six minutes later be fore the Stouffville crew could get at all organized. Moyer broke the vie for the homesters beating Goalie Curtis on a high shot at 7.45. Trunk added another for the visitors and Munro made it 4-1 unassisted at 19.49.
In the second period Stouffville fought back with three goals to only two markers picked up by the sixth concession boys.
Boadway, Moyer and Watson counted in that order to tie the game but Brandon and Norton put their team two up again to end the period.
In the third frame Unionville salted the game away with two goals by Burrows and Blake although the never-say-die Stouffville squad got one back at 15.45 when Chadwick blinked the light from close in.
Archie Forfar played a solid game on defence staying on the ice for the greater part of the game. Chadwick and Moyer also played well for the hometown boys. For Unionville Owen Trunk was the only two goal man of the night while Thompson and Burrows turned in nice efforts on the forward line.
Although a hard series to lose the best team won and should do well against future opposition. TRIP FOR LOCAL SPEED SKATERS TO DETROIT CANCELLED
Several local young people were all prepared last week to compete in the Michigan State skating races at Detroit, when soft weather cancelled the affair.
Betty Acton of Stouffville who has already won a number of honours on the silver blades, and is preparing to compete for the North American indoor championship this year, was to have raced at Detroit.
Helen Snowball and Marion Atkinson of Stouffville, also Clarence Fockler of Ringwood are all local speedsters who have caught the ye of speed-skating experts from Toronto, and steps are being taken to groom these young these young people in addition to others to compete in numerous racing meetings held in Toronto and across the line. RESERVED SEATS FOR HOCKEY PLAYOFFS
Reserves seats tickets for the opening game of the Senior OHA semi-finals to be played in the Stouffville Arena this Saturday night, Feb. 25th, go on sale this Thursday at the following business places: D. Holden and Sons, L. E. O’Neill’s and at the Arena (afternoon and evening). All tickets, reserved and rush are 75c. so fans are asked to pick up their seats early to avoid disappointment of having to stand.
The opposition in the first game of this best four-out-of-seven series is almost assured to be Orillia. There is a slight mathematical chance of the Meteors squeezing up out of fourth place by defeating Markham this Thursday, coupled with a lose by Stouffville to Eclipse.
If the standing remains as is, Meteors will play Markham in the first game of that series at Newmarket on Saturday night, with a second game here in Stouffville next week, while the Clippers are away in Orillia, These dates will be announced definitely this weekend.
Practically 6,000 hockey programs have been used by local fans at the Arena throughout the current schedule, and more than $200 worth of lucky prizes have been given away to the lucky number holders.
The weather proved too much for any but the most ardent hickey fans on Monday night, and less than two hundred were on hand for the Midget playoff and exhibition senior game. The temperature was zero inside the arena, and fifteen below outside.
A timely tip for hunters is contained in a reminder from game overseer Fred Merner of Kitchener that all gun licenses expire at the end of February. Anyone found hunting without their new license after this date is liable to a fine of from $10 to $50 and costs. So a word to the wise…. LOCALS TOO MUCH FOR AJAX, WIN FIRST MIDGET PLAYOFF ROUND 10-6
After coming out with a one-all draw in their first playoff game with Ajax Midgets, Stouffville lads really spread their wings on Monday night to down the lakeside boys 9-5 in the first round of the Ontario Minor Hockey Playdowns
Bud Lehman sparked the v scorers getting four of his team’s nine counters, while Mahn and Ogden tallied a pair each for the Ajax crew. The round remained tied at the end of the first period, each club scoring once, but the homesters took over in the second round, outscoring Ajax 2-1, a lead they never relinquished.
Johnny Davis in the blueshirt net held the fort well, and was only beaten on screen shots which gave him little chance. Harper and Hodgins played the biggest part of the game on the Stouffville defence, and gave the local midgets a real strength at the blue line.
the next round will find Stouffville squaring off with Bolton here this Thursday at 7 o’clock, Bolton having eliminated Alliston by a wide margin. Return game in Bolton on Saturday. CLIPPERS WIN CLOSE PAIR FROM ORILLIA BOMBERS
By Jim Thomas
Clippers 3, Bombers 2
Two quick goals in the second period were enough to give the Stouffville Clippers a 3-2 victory over their closest league rivals, Orillia Bombers, in a OHA Senior ‘B’ hockey fixture on Thursday night. Te Clippers were outscored 2-1 in the first period, although they carried the biggest share of territorial play.
Both Ross in the Orillia net and Jack Harper fro the Blueshirts were tested repeatedly, but both came through in great style which kept the crowd breathless.
Jackie Thomas clicked the first score for Stouffville, while Varley scored two for the bombers, the first one on a breakaway. Clippers continued to press in the second frame, and Bill Bradbury finally slapped one back of Ross at 16.35.
Only twenty seconds later, Couch reached in and poked through the winning counter as Ross juggled it momentarily on the blade of his stick. There was some argument when Gord Lewis rifled a drive on the ice which skidded under Ross and spun crazily on the goal line only to roll out. Close by fans claimed the puck was in, but there was no official rumpus.
Ice in the last period was bad, and the Clippers took no chances of having a lucky slap shot tie the count, and kept the rubber outside their blue line at every opportunity.
Ken Broughton, ex-Newmarketer with the Bombers tried to mix it up with his Stouffville friends at every opportunity, but no fistic outbreak materialized, and the game was played with only six penalties.
Backed by spectacular goal tending Stouffville Clippers came from behind to edge their closest second place rivals, Orillia Bombers 2-1 her on Saturday night
The Clippers started out fast in the first five minutes but seemed to fade badly as the period progressed. It was during on of these lapses that Bob Bowen speedy Orillia centre skated in alone to bounce a puck off Harper’s pads into the net. From then until the end of the period goalie Harper was called upon to make some great saves, many from screen shots through players legs and skates.
having gotten a bad period out of their system the Clipper struck hard and fast with Jackie Thomas tying the score from Bradbury and Minton on a high drive to the corner. About four minutes later Sails who has been one of the teams most consistent scorers of late skated in over the blue line, faked a pass to Gault and fired the rubber into the twine for what proved the winning tally.
The third period opened with the homesters trying desperately to hold their one goal margin. Because of the close score the checking became very heavy with defenceman and forwards alike taking no chance on a breakaway which might prove fatal

TANGLE OVER PLAYOFF ARRANGEMENTS CAUSES PUBLIC CONFUSION
Stouffville’s inaugural playoff game with Orillia was switched on and off so many times last weekend, that by the time Saturday night arrived, many fans didn’t know whether Th. affair was really going ahead or not with the result that instead of the expected fourteen hundred fans under a thousand were on hand. Tonight’s (Wednesday’s) game is expected to see a full house as this third game was definitely advertised in time.
Toronto Meteors were chiefly responsible for the tie-up. They insisted on playing a final game with Midland, although following their defeat by Markham on Thursday, the game could not alter their fourth-place position. This game was at one time slated to go in Stouffville, and was later switched to Midland. Thus the start of the Markham-Meteor series was held up until Tuesday of this week.
The late start of this series also upset plans for the Meteors to come here for their home games this week. Whether or not arrangements will be made for them to play Markham here next week is not know at this moment.
Toronto Meteors have certainly been the “bad boys” of the local hockey group in more ways than one. in addition to urning hither and yon all over the map to play their games, they’ve had both management and players expelled from various games for rough play and rough talk and nearly wound up by upsetting the start of the local playoffs. REALLY LAYING IT ON
it’s a little short of legalized robbery when hockey referees in the local Senior series can get away with charging $40 for handling a single game. However, that’s the amount the two officials carried away from the Saturday night Orillia-Clipper game in Stouffville.
Ordinarily in league games where one referee and a linesman are used, the charge amounts to $25. In Saturday night’s affair two referees were sent by the OHA, and it was expected the job would cost $30 which is nice “picking” for a couple of hours work. But no such luck, the officials claimed the price had been upped for the playoffs $5 apiece, making a neat take of $40.
In addition the OHA cut a 5% slice out of the gross gate for their share. Oh! to run a hockey team incidentally, the $20 each charged by the referees is only $10 less that the rate charged for the Junior ‘A’ playoffs at the Gardens, but here the gate receipts of fifteen to twenty thousand dollars a game can afford such a juicy cut .
A lot of people think that players have caught the high salary fever to the extent that sooner or later they’ll kill the game. It would appear that the officials too, are doing their share of “grabbing”. CLIPPERS PICK UP 29 SCORING POINTS IN FINAL GAME
Clipper scorers cut loose for a total of 29 points in the final scheduled game with Eclipse in the current OHA senior hockey circuit on Thursday night. They took the Toronto squad into camp 15-3.
Eclipse were a little better fortified for the game than when they tangled with the Meteors a week previous with only seven men to start the game. For Thursday’s encounter they carried eleven including big Gord Ecclestone who had been out of play through injury.
However the visitors just could not cope with the flying blueshirts who tallied five goals without a reply in the first period, added three in the second while Eclipse notched one, and seven in the final period to two for the Knights.
Don Couch scored three, Gord Lewis, Jack Drummond, and Herb Rose each a pair, and singles were counted by Gault, Sails, Hopper, Minton, Bradbury and Hochberg.
Polly Minton was the most out-lucked player on the local squad, having at least four perfect setups only to be outguessed by the Eclipse goalie on three of the tries. MIDGETS BOW OUT OF OMHA PLAYOFF PICTURE
Stouffville Midgets wrote finis to their playoff hopes on Monday night when they lost to Bolton 7-1 in the second game of their playoff round. Bolton took the first game in v 10-2 to win the round 17-3.
While the local lads put up a much more convincing argument in Monday night’s game, the Bolton squad were a bit too much. Attwell, who has already been looked over by Bob Davidson as future Leaf material was the big factor in Bolton’s superiority. he scored four of his team’s ten goals in Stouffville, and was a going concern all the way on Monday.
Procenko and Forgie scored a pair of tallies for the home town last Thursday, and Procenko counted the lone tally Monday night.
The Stouffville Midgets put up a much better game than the score would indicate, and display some smart prospects for the future local teams. THIS WEDNESDAY’S SENIOR PLAYOFF GAME CRUCIAL
By Jim Thomas
Clippers Open Semi-Finals with 8-3 Win Over Orillia
After coming out of the first period, trailing 3-1 Stouffville Clippers bounced right back to hand Orillia Bombers an 8-3 setback in the first round of their current three-out-of-five semi final round. The two leading scorers during the season, Don Couch and Gord Lewis really went all out, firing four of the team’s eight markers. Lewis led with three goals and two assists, while his speedy linemate picked up two goals and two assists. Hochberg, who has shown steadily to be of the most consistent defenceman in the league, turned in a strong game, both offensively and defensively. Ross set the visitors back on their heels with the tying goal and assisted on one other. His marker was scored on a solo breakaway which proved to be the turning point in the game as the local blinked the light on five successive occasions with out a reply from the enemy. Goalie Harper turned in another steady game in the nets as did Ross of the Bombers, although he could not stop the blueshirts nice they started to roll..
Couch started the scoring in the somewhat scrambly first period from Lewis, but Orillia struck back two minutes later when Varty blinked the light from D. Bowen. The Bowen brothers, by far the best for the visitors swooped in again with Al beating Harper from close in, while brother Doug set up Scott for the Bombers third goal. The period ended with the locals down 3-1.
After getting a bad first period out of their systems; the Clippers hit the ice with a determination to get back in the game, and their guns trained on the enemy net.
Sails opened the second period scoring from Hopper to give the home town boys new hope. At 18.28 Hochberg stepped from the penalty box and picked up a pass at the blue line to skate in alone for the tying goal.
Both teams skated into the final frame, deadlocked at three goals apiece, but before seven minutes had ticked by Lewis always “Johnny on the spot” had poked three markers by goalie Ross. At 13.10 with Whitney of Orillia serving time, Lewis again set up Couch who skated in alone to outguess Ross with a perfect shot. Bradbury ended the scoring parade for the night as he flipped in Minton’s rebound after Clarke has set up the play.
Although the homesters have the first all important game tucked under their belts, no doubt the visitors will settle down to turn the series into a close battle.
It was a determined bunch of pucksters that faced the Clippers when they lined up on Orillia ice for the second game of their Senior playoff series on Monday night. For two periods, the Bombers out-checked and out-skated the local blueshirts, and piled up a five goal margin.
Then the Clippers came to life. For fifteen minutes of the last period Orillia just couldn’t cope with the speed and passing formations that swept in over their blue line. Hopper, Lewis< Couch mad Drummond banged home four goals in that fifteen, and were closing in for the tying counter when Scott broke loose at centre and speeded in on Harper to sink the clincher for Orillia.
From then on Stouffville drew back, and turned off their sizzling attack as if a tap had been turned off. Orillia once more gained the initiative, and Antonia and A. Bowen scored another pair in the dying moments.
Brown got three for the Bombers, Scott two, and Varty, Payne and Antonia singles.
Stouffville had six penalties, most of them of a very foolish nature. Orillia players were banished from the ice five times.
The Orillia win tied the round, and the crucial third game was slated for Stouffville this Wednesday night , with the fourth game back in Orillia Saturday night. The series has been reduced from four-our-of-seven to three-out-of-five so that all could be over this week. If a fifth game is necessary, it will be played back in Stouffville next Monday night.

Stouffville and Orillia had hoped to continue the longer series due to the late start of Markham and Toronto Meteors.

CLIPPERS PREPARE FOR BARNSTORM TRIP TO U.S.
Stouffville Clippers are preparing to make a barnstorming trip to the States where they will play a pair of games with Clinton, N.Y., on March 18th and 19th.
Negotiations are also underway for a game at Smith’s Fall enroute. If this does not materialize, the team will make the crossing at Buffalo, N.Y. and sports a high powered semi-pro club.
The club will travel by private car, and quite a number of local hockey enthusiasts are understood to be planning to go along for the outing. ORILLIA PROLONGS SERIES EDGING CLIPPERS 5-4
(
In one of the hardest fought battles of the series, Orillia eked out a slim 5-4 decision over the Clippers here on Monday night. The game was fast from the start with the Bombers realizing that a loss or even a tie meant elimination for them and a victory for the homesters. After being down two goals in the first and second periods the Clippers roared back with two markers in the final frame to set the visitors back on their heels. At 18.20 Varty banged in the winner from Laughed to extend the series to the limit. Clarke played a standout game in the net for the northern boys holding back many determined Clipper rushes.
It was a poor show for several of the Stouffville’s stalwarts, and they know it. The defence wobbles woefully at times, while the forwards passing was erratic and their shooting wild.
The game went true to form in that Orillia took an early lead, and the locals struggled uphill all the way in their effort to get even.
In the first period the Bombers jumped into the lead on a low belt line shot that Harper fanned on. At 9.40 however Les Clarke put the homesters back on even terms with a long bullet drive from the blue line. At 12.00 while Baker was clearing the puck from his own zone Varty snared it to be left alone in front of the unprotected Harper and made no mistake with a hard shot to the corner. D. Bowen put Orillia two up from Richardson and Scott and ended the period leading 3-1.
At 4.55 of the second period Payne made it 4-1 from Jennett but Bradbury kept the homesters hopes alive with a marker from Baker three minutes later.
There was plenty of high sticking allowed by referees Vale and Belumer and fist-swinging threatened to break out on numerous occasions.
the third and final period had everything from a strong Clipper rally to a wild after-the-game free for all. Couch netted the third Stouffville goal from Lewis and Minton and Bradbury sank the tying marker from Couch 1t 18.20 to bring the large crowd to its feet in a wild jubilation. the enthusiasm, however, was short lived for the blueshirts as Varty flicked in a rebound with less than two minutes to play. Although Harper was pulled from the net for an extra forward the visitors hung on desperately until the final whistle.
After the game the boys mixed it up in a wild punching battle which included coaches, spectators and player alike but after the police moved in the players cooled out and left the ice.

MARKHAM GO TWO UP IN BEST-OF SEVEN- GROUP FINALS
(
Millionaires 3, Clippers
Markham millionaires made it two in a row here on Monday night as they edged the homesters in a wide open contest 3-2. Although on the whole the Blueshirts were outscored they hemmed the Markham team into their own zone and had they bottled up on many occasions. Only the great work of Stunden in the visitors’ net kept the Millionaire crew on the top end of the score as he turned in another of his steady
games between the pipes. Herbie Rose turned in a great game on defence with his headlong rushes
and stonewall tactics throughout the contest. Hochberg who has been a standout all season as well as in the present series looked good also. Johnny Drummond played one of his better games breaking up many determined Markham passing plays and fighting hard all the way. For the visitors it was Stunden all the way. Watson turned in one of the best efforts up front with linemate Sluce. At 8.35 of the first period Jewitt slipped a quick shot by Harper to give the visitors the lead and eight minutes late Sluce stick-handled neatly to beat Harper on a breakaway. Rose, the only man back fell in a vain attempt to catch the speedy winger who found himself alone in front of the net. Hardly had the second period gotten underway when Hockberg drifted in a high shot past Stunden unassisted to break the ice and end the
scoring for the period. With perry serving a tripping penalty to start the final frame Gord Lewis sank Couch’s pass for the tying goal. The jubilation, however, was short-lived as Scott in some way or form blinked the light less than a minute later for what proved to be the winning goal.. Although the goal was strongly protested it was allowed and the Clippers had to face the 3-2 defeat. In the dying minutes of the game Harper was drawn from the net nut to no avail as the Millionaires held firm. There were eleven penalties all told coming to the homesters. Officials Farrell and Crombie handled the game.
Millionaires 3, Clippers 2
After holding the Millionaires to a lone tally in the first the Clippers fought back to score and came on a couple of occasions very close to adding a we more only to have have Stunden form a stonewall in front of the net. Two goals by Watson, one in the dying minutes of the second and another at 6.12 of the third spelt defeat for the homesters. Although on the losing end of the score the blueshirts held their own for most of the game but became erratic at times when passing around the net. It was here that Markham boys took advantage making every move and shot on the net count. Hardly had the first period started when Sails received a slashing penalty. It was while he was serving time that Singleton beat Harper from Bell for the opening marker. Both teams battled on fairly even terms for the rest of the period and the boys left the ice with Markham leading 1-0. Sixteen minutes had passed by in the second frame before hard working Hochberg blasted a sizzling drive to the top corner to tie the score. Sails picked up the assist on the goal as he set Ross up for the shot. At 19.02 Watson poked in the first goal after G. Scott had bounced the rubber at Harper from the blue line. The Clippers left the ice still trailing by one gaol. In the final frame both teams battled on fairly even terms although the boys in green came up with the only marker. Jewitt set the play up passing to Watson who pulled the unprotected Harper to one side and flipped the puck into the corner. This ended the scoring for the game. There were only eight penalties none for anything serious although Baker and Drummond exchanged a few punches in the final period. It was nice to see the boys play clean hockey and we hope it will continue throughout the series. HOCKEY PLAYDOWN CONTINUE AS ORIGINALLY SCHEDULED
The Senior hockey playoffs between Stouffville and Markham are continuing this week as scheduled.. The third game of the best-four-out-of-seven series will be played in Oshawa this Wednesday night with the fourth game back here in Stouffville this Friday night. If more games are necessary they will be played on Monday night at Newmarket, Wednesday at Stouffville, and Thursday in Oshawa. Following last Saturday night’s game in Oshawa, Manager Watts of Markham asked Stouffville to play the fifth game if necessary. This Stouffville refused to do because of their American exhibition trip. Both clubs realized that if playoffs dates could not be settled amicably between the two, the O.H.A. would set them, and the terms would play them. However, a meeting on Monday night with both executive and player representatives settled their minor differences without any trouble and established the above-mentioned dates satisfactory to both. HOCKEY TICKET REFUNDS
Any person holding tickets for last night Friday night’s Senior hockey game between Markham and Stouffville, and who was unable to attend because of weather conditions, may have the tickets refunded by presenting same at the ticket agent where they were purchased. No refunds will be paid later than this Saturday, Mar. 25th. The Arena Management also wishes it understood, that while it understand, that while as exception is being made in this case, in future there will be no refund made on tickets not used.
Stouffville Hockey Club is likely to hold a spring hockey meeting to lay plans for the 1950-51 season, rather than waiting for a fall meeting which always pulls up too little and too late. The Club wound up in a nice position financially, several thousand dollars making a nice pot for the boys in blue. Plans are likely to be made early to patch up some of the weak spots in the Clipper lineup. It’s expected to take considerable “long green” to get the calibre of players added to the rosier the management wants, but if they’re the right calibre fan support will show that it pays off.
Rumours coming out of Aurora say our Yonge St. neighbour will likely be seen in Senior ‘B’ hockey next winter. Markham, Stouffville, Aurora, Newmarket, Bradford and Sutton would make a nice compact senior group, should the other Yonge St. clubs decide to follow suit.
Lambert Malloy of Stouffville who has gained quite a name for himself this winter as an OMHA referee was in Oshawa on Saturday afternoon handling a Midget ‘A’ playoff between Oshawa and St. Catharines. he also refereed the plait games between Marlboros and Kitchener-Waterloo Juveniles at Weston, Bolton and Sundridge teams, and Bolton and Keswick Juveniles.
For the benefit of those who have not yet clipped the fishing season dates for their wallets, here they are for 1950 as announcement by the Department of Lands and Forests. Speckled trout, brown trout, rainbow trout, Aurora trout, Kamloops trout, May 1 to Sept. 15. Pike and pickerel, general season opens May 15. Black bass, July 1 to Oct. 15 in all parts of the province except in River St. Clair and Detroit River where it will be June 25 to Dec. 15. ALL PROFESSIONAL EXCEPT KIDS IN SCHOOLS SAYS GOVERNMENT MEMBERS
“There are only two sets of athletes today — kids in school, who are amateur, and the others, who are professional,” said H.L. Walters, CCF, Toronto-Bracondale member in the Ontario House, during last week’s discussion on the possibility of collecting more amusement tax from sporting events. According to the O.H.A. rule book, players may receive remuneration and remain amateur so long as they receive amateur so long as they receive it at the end of the season, more or less as a “donation,” are not paid a stipulated weekly salary. Players in Junior ‘A’hockey ranks who do receive a set weekly wage, are referred to by O.H.A. officials as “professional Junior.” The subject came up when Rob’t Thornberry (CCF, Hamilton-Centre) noted that an amendment to the Athletics Control Act, up for second reading, contained an provision for taxing athletic events “supposedly amateur, but actually professional.” Some people were promoting sports under the amateur label, for their own aggrandizement, he said. The Treasury Department was entitled to the tax, and might use it to promote legitimate amateur sport. The province’s amusement tax goes to the hospitals’ aid fund. The sports he had in mind, Mr. Thornberry said, were football, hockey and boxing. It was difficult to say where amateur sport ended and professional began, Premier Frost agreed. The decision as to which are amateur and which professional sports is made by the Treasury Department, the Premier said. Apparently in reference to hockey he mentioned clubs which operate as farm clubs for professional organizations. he questioned their status from the amusement tax standpoint. It was only hypocrisy to speak of amateur sport when “a high school student can be signed to a form that says if he plays for money he will play for such-and-such a club only,” Mr. Walters maintained. MILLIONAIRES WIN TITLE IN FOUR STRAIGHT GAMES
by Jim Thomas
In the third game of their Senior ‘B’ OHA group finals, Markham Millionaires took a convincing 4-1 win from Stouffville Clippers. The game played at the Oshawa Arena Wednesday night was a grueling one and the victory marked the Moneymen’s third straight decision over the Clippers and sent them home as favourites to win the group title without a loss. Halfway through the period Markham opened the scoring. They pushed in another before the frame ended and were ahead 2-0 to begin the second stanza. Through a rough period, which seemed to suit the Clippers, Markham sat back and waited it out. The Clippers scored their only goal of the game and thus had a 2-1 count going into the last period. Twas then that the Markham form showed through and with two more goals they pushed the game in the refrigerator. In the same motion they almost salted away the finals.
George Scott opened the scoring in the game when his slow low shot got past a Stouffville defence who was completely blocking the goalie Harper’s feet before he got around to moving. To prove it wasn’t all going to be flukes, the Markham squad blasted into a 2-0 lead in the late moments of the period when Ronnie Bell coasted in on passes from Singleton and Perry and caught Harper waving his hands with a chest-high drive. Stouffville came back in the second frame, weathering a storm of high sticks and body checks, and best front line of Hopper, Drummond and Sails turned on a power attack that held Markham in check for all the time that trio were on the ice. This pressure, told in the only goal for v, a clever passing play, Drummond shoving the rubber to Hopper for the goal. Lots of rough stuff in the form of five penalties and more clipping and clouting that messed the referee’s watchful eyes failed to slow the Stouffville attack, but inaccurate passing resulted in ineffective work close to the enemy net and they came out of the period with a 2-1 score.
A bad pass on a power play by Stouffville in the opening minutes of the last frame saw Brennan flip over to Bell to move him into a breakaway, Brennan moved in with Bell and the latter using his wing as a decoy tossed in the rubber for a 3-1 count. Four minutes later Sluce worked for the puck behind the Clipper’s net and catching a piece of it sent the rubber bounding out in front. It hit Rose’s leg and rolled back into the net for the second soft goal. It counted in the statics though and made the count 4-1. That’s the way it ended.
Millionaires 5 Clippers 3
Yes, it’s all over for this season as far as our Clippers are concerned and again the Markham Millionaires are group champions for another year

DON COUCH TOP POINT MAN FOR CLIPPERS, WINS TROPHY
Don Couch, flashy wingman with Stouffville Clippers finished on top of the club’s scoring race, getting a total of 62 points throughout the season’s league and playoff games. Couch picked up 20 points during the eleven playoff games five ahead of his nearest team-mate Gord Lewis and more than double any other player on the team. The sixty-two which the Clipper ace compiled was made up of 29 goals and 33 assists. His centreman Gord Lewis has been right up there also all through the season finished the thirty-five game O.H,A, grind with 56 points, 34 goals and twenty-two assists. Both Lewis and Couch have worked constantly together all season and have played practically the entire forty-eight games for the club
which includes thirteen exhibition contests. Between them, the two have run up a total of 63 goals in O.H.A. league competition alone. The balance of the players were fairly closely bunched, Sails and Thomas being next in line to the leaders. Biggest individual effort in any game was by Couch in the final game with Eclipse AC on Feb. 23rd, when he picked up six points. The same game Gord Lewis gained five. Lewis was top scorer during the eleven-game playoff run, getting eleven goals. Don Couch will be awarded the Bill Ball Trophy, donated by Bill Ball Motors, formerly of Stouffville, now located in Lansing. The trophy is a handsome silver column with a hockey player atop, and is presented each year for the Stouffville player compiling the greatest number of points during the season’s regular play. Both Don Couch and Gord Lewis are expected to be back with the Clippers next season, a fact local fans will be glad to learn, as they were one of the most popular pair of gents on the ice.

A leg-weary Stouffville team dropped an 8-3 decision to Clinton, N.Y., in the first of a two-game exhibition series in the States, on Saturday night, but came back strong on Sunday afternoon to upset the Clinton Comets 7-5. This was only the Comet’s eighth lose in forty games. Sunday afternoon’s game was a thriller before a capacity house. Clinton were going all out with only three minutes to go in an effort to tie the score which at that point was 6-5. Bobby Hopper stole the puck from the Clinton’s Dockrell as this player started to organize a rush and he made no mistake in rifling home the Clippers’ seventh goal
to put the game on ice. Players, members of the club executive and fans who went along to Clinton for the trip thoroughly enjoyed themselves. They were royally treated by their American hosts and invited back next year. The boys tell us they saw much more snow near Utica than around Stouffville. Clinton has the only arena in the state of New York outside of madison Square Gardens with a capacity of 3500. The games were well covered in the press and radio, and the boys came home with record copies of the broadcast of the game.

Stouffville horse-shoe pitching enthusiasts will set up new courts this summer on Memorial Park grounds near the site of the old arena. The courts will be lighted. the local club will join the Dominion Horse=Shoe Pitching Association this year, more on this later.
Stouffville Arena will be closed to hockey practice next Sunday, Easter Sunday, according to Ken Laushway.
There will be free skating again this Saturday afternoon. The local Athletic Club carried this fine piece of work for nearly four months. beginning last Saturday the Arena Co. took over the job, and will furnish skating for youngsters on Saturday afternoon until further notice.
Larger crowds are taking in the Toronto Hockey League playoff games Tuesdays and Thursdays. Here’s a real evening of sports for half a buck. There are four games each evening, everything from Peewee to Intermediate.
Stouffville Clippers held another spring practice session here over the weekend, and a number of new prospects were on hand for a tryout. The club will continue their spring training so long as there is ice in readiness for an early start next October. The team was slated to meet camp Borden Flyers in an exhibition game at Alliston on Tuesday night.
Bunny Morgason, well-known Tely columnist makes the observation that the C.A.H.A are making a joke of the Senior ‘A’ hockey playdowns on the province, and at the same time prejudicing many centres against the O.H.A. by pitting such teams as the semi=pro Leaf farm team, Toronto Marlboros against the Sault and now Cornwall. Both these clubs would make interesting opposition for for such Senior ‘B’ groups as those containing Peterboro, Markham, Stouffville, Orillia. Neither the Sault or Cornwall are capable of giving the Marlies little more than a goos workout. the latter series with Cornwall going on this week is a four-our-of-seven affair too, which makes it more distasteful.
There is a movement on foot headed by Lloyd Rubella of Kitchener to form an independent hockey league covering the Niagara district and all of western Ontario. Rubella who has referred O.H.A. hockey, played and coached is sticking his neck out in attempting to form this outlaw league, and it all stems from the grips of the Kitchener-Waterloo Flying Dutchmen. Sponsors of the new league promise their own rules and elect their own officers. They claim this would be a change from sitting in on an annual O.H.A. meeting where everything is alleged to be cut and dried beforehand. LOCAL SKATERS COMPETE AT BRAMPTON
At an exhibition racing event in Brampton on Saturday night, Marlon Atkinson and Helen Snowball, also Ross Madill were among the winners. The races featured Andra McLaughlin of New York, an indoor champion and figure skater. Marion Atkinson won second in the quarter mile, tied with Helen for second in the half mile event. Ross Madill won the vent for boys under fourteen. Betty Acton and Clarence Fockler were also presen tbut did not compete.
The spring O.H.A. meeting is slated for this month in Toronto. All clubs with artificial ice are requested to put in their entries now for next fall. It is expected that artificial ice clubs will be grouped together and the 1950-51 schedule will commence for them in November. Stouffville’s Senior entry will be in O.H.A. hands this month, and the team will continue spring training so long as ice is kept in the Arena her which will likely be until May 1st at least.
Markham Millionaires drew 30,838 customers to their 29 home hockey games this winter, played on five different arenas including their own at Markham. This is certainly a good record and shows an average home crowd of 1069. Stouffville Clippers showed an average draw at their home games of 900 which was considered good for a club which has yet to win itself a reputation for good hockey performances established by Markham over many years.
Stouffville memorial Park will have the addition do another building this spring with the erection of a Boy Scout Hall. The Scouts have been presented with the United Church sheds from which will be salvaged sufficient lumber to erect this building on the site of the old skating rink at the south side of the park.

HALIBURTON SPECIAL TRAIN FOR SENIOR FINAL HERE SATURDAY WITH BURIALS
Haliburton Huskies, last year’s Ontario Rural Hockey Association Senior champions will meet in the Stouffville Arena this Saturday night, April 15th, in the final for this year’s title. This is the all-Ontario Senior final, the fifth game of a best three-out-of-five series. Both clubs are red-hot on the championship trail, having won two games each in this all-important series. Haliburton will back their favourites with a special train on Saturday night, carrying hundreds of fans. Reserved seats go on sale at the Arena box-office this Thursday. COUCH RECEIVES BILL BALL TROPHY
During the carnival last Wednesday night, Don Couch was presented with the trophy donated by Bill Ball Motors to the player picking up the most points during the regular hockey season. Tim O’Neill, manager of the Clippers during the winter presented the coveted award to the speedy winger, while George Allison and Tief Rennie joined in the proceedings. No doubt the award will be up for competition next year when the boys take to the ice again.

Stouffville Clippers continue with their spring workouts, and one of the their latest recruits is Don Hall, defenceman this last season with Oshawa generals. Hall under the tutorship of Tommy Anderson, Oshawa coach, was one of the best defenceman in this year’s Junior ‘A’ group. He will be overage for junior next fall. Hall was very impressive in the two exhibition games he has played with the Clippers here, and in Allison. He’ll be with them again this Thursday night in Allison.
Open season on speckled trout, brown trout and rainbow trout will be April 29 instead of May 1, giving the anglers an extra weekend of fishing. Confirmation came through to the Ontario Dept. of Lands and Forests from the Dominion Dept. of Fisheries, granted a request to open the season two days earlier. At the same time it was announced that the pickerel season opens May 13. There is still some confusion in the minds of the fishing fraternity and outdoor writers, too, on the law concerning bag limit of speckled trout. The law is that an angler can legally take 15 trout in one day, but these are not to exceed ten pounds in total weight. Last year the law read 20 trout and ten pounds.
The gap between hockey and baseball seasons has been practically bridged in many centres, and now Stouffville is nearing this status. A couple of Stouffville Clippers who practiced on local ice during the weekend were also engaged in baseball and soccer. Bobby Hopper worked out with recruits for the Toronto Mayfair Senior ball club to which he belongs during the daytime, and with the Clipper hockey club in the evening. Les Clarke, local defenceman was in the U.S. during the weekend playing soccer.

Stouffville Lions Club expects to hardtop the tennis courts in Memorial Park this spring, work to be done possibly when the construction gang is in town laying new streets. In addition to tennis, the paved section will be very useful for holding street dances. Street fairs, etc. will be moved from Main Street into the park and will be handled with much more case and inconvenience.
The ice is coming out of the local Arena this week, winding up with a big free skating night for everybody this Wednesday. The Arena opened on Nov. 1st, and will close April 26th, a pretty good season for a start. Only a little more than five months from now there’ll be ice again. NEW 15% SPORT TAX MAY CAUSE SOME HEADACHES
Teams claiming to be amateur and wishing to be exempted from the tax must (1) show audited statements for 1947-48-49.listing in detail incomes and expenses for those years; (2) give full details of salaries, wages, traveling expenses, etc. for the same years. The feeling, accompanied by faint hope, persists around Ontario and district that the Ontario Government will not apply its 15% tax as rigidly as the regulations now being sent to various sports clubs suggest.
However, there is a nascent whisper about that Queen’s Park intends to be guided in its taxation on the basis of the old Amateur Athletic Union of Canada code of amateurism, which permits athletes nothing
more than allowances — and not always liberal — for travel purposes. Most clubs figure that for them the strict AAU code is hotter than a wolf’s breath. This is quite understandable in view of the prospect of having admission prices boosted for some clubs — and leagues — at a time when they haven’t been breaking or else barely beating the red under the present scale. Many seen inclined to the belief that the tax is aimed primarily at the higher salaried clubs in Ontario Hockey Association, and will not be applied as strictly in other leagues and amateur sport enterprises. That mat be, but the government’s letter now in the hands of one of the Big Four football clubs doesn’t suggest anything of the kind. There is always the possibility of the government changing its plans or interpretation and dealing differently with other amateur sports operators, but if it applies Th. extremely rigid AAU code of amateurism, very few clubs could escape the tax. Practically all amateur clubs operate, in varying degrees, in the same fashion as the big football and hockey clubs. The salaries may not run quite as high, but very few could take affidavits which the government maintains they will require if there is any deviation from the AAU code. They can’t pay a man a dollar, even above legitimate expenses, and still qualify under these regulations. GAR LEHMAN ELECTED PRESIDENT OF SENIOR HOCKEY CLUB
L. E. O’Neill Returned as Club Manager
At the annual meeting of the Stouffville Hockey Club on Friday evening, Gar Lehman was elected of the Club, and L.E.O’Neill was re-elected manager. Mr. Lehman was vice president in the season just
closed. The following is the complete executive as elected at a well-attended meeting: Hon. Pres., Dr. S.S. Ball; Pres., Gar Lehman; vice pres., Morley Symes; sec’y., Telf Rennie; treas., Norm Baker; manager, L.E. O’Neill; publicity, Chas. Nolan; equipment, Don Lewis and Elgin Wagg; transportation, Walter Holden; program sales chairman, Geo. Morden. The season’s financial report was read to the meeting by secretary Telf Rennie, received with satisfaction and adopted. The report showed that approximately $6,500 was received by the club in gate receipts this year. Members of the club were transported free from their homes to all games, and were given meals at all games, an item in the report that amounted to approximately $1,000. In addition all players received a tidy cheque for their services. Receipts of more than $1,000 were also received from the program department. The players will also receive handsome windbreakers, an expenditure made possible by the recent exhibition games at Allison. BOUNDARY OF NEW METROPOLITAN AREA
Stouffville will be the most northerly centre included in the newly setup metropolitan area as set up by the O.H.A. Executive, and which will be up for discussion at the spring meeting this Saturday. Teams within the new area shall not be classified lower than Senior ‘B’ or Junior ‘B’. The further clause in the rule reads thus: “No player shall be eligible to play for a club within the metropolitan area unless he is resident within the area.” The Metropolitan area shall include the following: City of Toronto, towns of Leaside, Mimico, New Toronto and Weston, the villages of Forest Hill, Long Branch, Markham, Port Credit, Richmond Hill, Stouffville, Streetsville, Swansea and Woodbridge, and the townships of East York, Etobicoke, Markham, North York, Scarboro, Toronto-Gore, Vaughan and York. Stouffville’s entry for their 1950-51 Senior ‘B’ club is now in the hands of the O.H.A. as requested from all centres with artificial ice. The next season’s certificates are in the hands of the local executive and some players will be signed during the summer in preparation for next season’s play which is expected to begin in November. FANS APPRECIATED STOUFFVILLE VISIT
Alliston, Ont. Apr. 5, 1950
Stouffville, Ontario
Dear Sir:
Having witnessed a fine hockey game between the team from your town, and the RCAF Flyers in the Allison Memorial Arena last night, I am taking the liberty of passing on to you in order that some sort of story may be published in your paper regarding what folks from other towns etc. think of them. They sure were not a disgrace to Stouffville and proved to be the better team in the long run by defeating the Flyers by the score of 5-4. This of course is roughly the first defeat for the Flyers and the people of Alliston proceeding from the game were sure pleased with the exhibition of hockey. In fact a great number of them said that if they would come back again they would be glad to pay a good price to see such a team in action. Am not trying to blow up the team from your town and degrading the Flyers, but all year we have seen teams playing the Flyers who were so far below them, truly it wasn’t worth seeing. Then when such a good team comes in from another territory and gives them a good game and defeats them, one cannot help but be pleased. The boys from Stouffville are really a fine class of boys and good sports in the bargain, that is what people of other places think of your representative when they are away from town. Kind of think that is good to be able to pass on such good reports.
Yours truly,
Stan Nosworthy
P.S. — Things like this passed on often help the morale of the team and to the people who support such teams. 28,000 FANS ATTENDED LOCAL HOCKEY GAMES
Over One Hundred Free Hours Provided for Kiddies by Stouffville Arena Co.
Stouffville Arena which closed its doors on the initial winter closed its doors on the initial winter season last week operated for a period of twenty-five weeks. During that time, approximately 28,000 fans attended a total of 46 O.H.A. and exhibition senior hockey games. Eleven thousand more enjoyed the 43 nights of public skating, three of which were provided free by the Arena Company. In Addition, 385 hockey teams used the fine new arena for practice hours. In the Toronto Hockey League, 502 teams participated in a total of 251 games. Seventeen Wednesday afternoons were also given over to bush-league hockey. While the Athletics Club financed 20 free Saturday afternoon skating periods for all the children skating periods for all the children of the district, and the Lions Club for a number of Minor League Hockey
games, the Arena Company itself games, the Arena Company itself gave to the smaller children and minor hockey teams, a total of 120 free hours time, worth $1800 at the regular rates. Other hours were also provided without charge for the local speed skaters to work out. The new arena has been of inestimable value as a recreational centre, and with a number of improvements mooted by company officials, it will continue to be for many years to come. The Manager, Mt. Ken Laushway was repeatedly congratulated on the fine sheet of ice which was always provided for every event, and the congenial atmosphere brought many noteworthy comments, particularly by visiting city clubs.

WELL-KNOWN SPORTS FIGURES TO COACH LOCAL BASEBALL
Stouffville Intermediate baseball club will field an entry in the Tri-Country League and will be headed by the following executive: secretary-treasurer, Louis Raxlin; secretary-treasure, Murray Wagg; coach, Bob Hassard; assist coach, Earl Cook; equipment mgr., Ken Wagg. This year’s club will be self-sponsored and will inaugurate the season with a big May 24th tournament in an effort to raise funds. Bob Hassard who will coach the 1950 entry will also play with the team. Hassard was one of the most popular and potent members of last year’s club and the fans will be more than pleased to learn that he is returning. Bob Hassard is perhaps best known for his hockey prowess as a member of Marlboro Seniors, and a future Maple Leaf. However his ball playing has also caught the eye of more than one major league team. There is a possibility that Johnny McAllen, another well-known Marlboro Senior may also turn out with Stouffville. Earl Cook who will assist Hassard with the coaching duties needs no introduction to local ball fans, as a home-brew professional players of long-standing.

The Youth for Christ is operating a softball team. The league is packed to capacity with nine teams: Stouffville, Ringwood, Vivian, Bethesda, 6th line, Peaches, Bloomington, Dickson’s Hill and Lemonville. All the games are played on Monday nights. Stouffville play theirs at the school grounds.
Horseshoes are clanging again. The local boys have spent a lot of hard work and time down at their new site, the old arena. The boys have got one court underway and hope to get the other fixed as soon as possible. If any of you are itching to get in the game, the boys are down there practically every night rending the air with “ringers.”
The Stouffville Lions Club has granted the Stouffville A.C. $150 for the promotion of sport and to get the financially defunct A.C. rolling. This money is being used to sponsor a boys’ Midget team and a boys’ Juvenile team. Bob Hassard and Doug Davis are coach and manager respectively of the Juveniles, while George Smith, Gar Lehman and Don Lewis are handling the Midgets. There is a Midget practice called for Wednesday night at the park. All boys under 17 by May1st are eligible. SUTTON SUBDUED AGAIN IN OPENING LEAGUE GAME
Stouffville 11, Sutton 2
With the aid of fire-ball pitching on the part of “Tom” Miller and spotty hitting the Intermediates took the first game of the year. Miller went the route for Stouffville, allowing only three hits and ten strike-outs. “Butch” Schell bopped a terrific triple to centre field in the sixth to score two runs and the only extra-base hit for Stouffville was a double for Miller in the fourth. Sutton collected only one extra base hit in the game. Sutton pitcher showed lack of control and experience, but still struck out five of the opposition. Stouffville played nearly flawless ball.
An engineer from a large construction firm which specializes in asphalt work was up to town the other day. His purpose was to look over the tennis courts and decide whether they could be topped as planned. His reply was in the negative, because he said the courts were too low and therefore too wet. He also said that if topped they would heave in the sporing when the frost came out. It seems too bad
that something cannot be done to improve the courts this year, as quite a few people in town play tennis. If they can’t be topped with asphalt why can’t we top it with clay or some other suitable material.
There is another meeting called for Tennis Club this Thursday night at 7.15. Only four turned out for the last one so no election of officers was held. Please turn out and get the club started — it’s late already you know. LOCAL NINE TRIUMPHANT OVER PORT PERRY
Stouffville 4, Port Perry 3
In their last three games, the local boys were unbeaten, Counting the tournament games, they have won five straight. The hitting has improved considerably but the team still depends upon Miller’s right arm. It was in this first half that Stouffville really pulled a smart, heady play. Cawker had fanned for one out. Whitmore had reached home on Lowery’s hit and Lowery had advanced to third on Harper’s single. “Butch” received one of Millers’ pitches threw to second to cut off Harper’s steal. “Porky” Schell chased him back to first where “Butch” nailed Lowery who was streaking from third. In the first for Stouffville, no runs off 1 hit and one error to Lowery of Port Perry. In the second for Port, no runs, no hits and no errors. In the second for Stouffville, no runs, 1 hit and no errors. In the third for Port, no runs, no hits, and no errors. In the third for Stouffville, 2 runs, 1 hit and 1 error. Minton walked. L. Schell got one by fielder’s choice when Minton was forced and uMiller doubled on an error. Hassard singled to score both runs. In the fourth for Port, 2 runs off 1 hit and no errors. For Stouffville 1 run , off 1 hit and 2 errors. In the fifth for Port, no hoist, no runs and 1 error. In the fifth for Stouffville, 4 men reached base and Harper was called in or called himself in to stem the uprising, but to no avail as Stouffville squeezed in one run to tie the score. Miller retired Port’s three batters in order in the sixth and seventh while Port pitcher allowed
nor more run in the seventh to win the ball game for Stouffville.
Summary: Port Perry, hits 2, runs 3, errors 2. Stouffville, hits 9, runs 4, errors 6.

The local A.C. held another meeting last Thursday night. Although members were few, a lot was accomplished. Jim Austin was voted to represent the Athletic Club on new Park Commission. It was decided to hold a big field day on July 1st. There will be a Juvenile game at 2 p.m. and an Intermediate at 4 p.m.. We understand the managers are lining up some real competition for these exhibition contests. The next meeting of A.C. is called for June 22nd at 7.30 in Birkett’s office.
The local Midgets took to the field last Friday night for the first game. It was only an exhibition game with Markham but still some classy ball was played by the minors. The local team never pulled ahead but always threatened. The score after seven innings was Markham 9, Stouffville 6. LOCAL TENNIS CLUB REORGANIZES FOR 1950

Port Perry, 5 Stouffville, 4
Lack of hitting was the deciding factor in Stouffville’s downfall last Friday night. Although the local team fielded and played well in the clinches, they failed to produce with the bat. Stouffville had an edge of two runs, the score being 4-2. But in the last of the eighth Miller, who had twelve strike-outs and had pitched A-1 ball, was beginning to slow. In that fateful eighth, the boys from Scugog blasted three triples and worked for a walk to tie the score, and eventually win the game. Earl Cook, was best man with the stick, collecting a long double and a single.
The executive of the Tennis Club requests that any member owing rakes or hoes, bring them along next Wednesday afternoon. The executive hopes that the courts can be cleaned up in one afternoon.

GIRLS TAKE THORNHILL 13-11
On Monday night at Thornhill, Stouffville girls took their first league game of the schedule 13-11. the local nine built up a seven run lead in the first two innings to put a damper on the Thornhill spirit. Once more our home run queens, Jean Miller and Eleanor Crossen blasted good ones to the field for an easy trip around the bases. BABE SNOWBALL HELPS GIRLS DEFEAT BRADFORD 29-4
With a helping hand from babe Snowball, wife of Robert Snowball, town barber, Stouffville girls defeated Bradford in the “Marsh” town last Wednesday night to the tune of 29-4. Babe, holding down the right field position, cracked out a hard liner past first to bring in a run. Jean Miller, our hard-hitting pitcher, slugged a good one into centre field in the fourth innings for a home run, and Eleanor Crossen got a homer in the seventh. Bradford girls were scoreless until the fourth when two crossed the plate. Then in the seventh Zlemianski whacked one out ti the daisies for two more runs and an exciting finish in a rather one-sided game. GIRLS SOFTBALL LEAGUE COMPRISES EIGHT TEAMS
Because of the size of the girls softball league this year and of the location of some of the clubs, the group has been divided, with Aurora, Elgin Mills, Schomberg and Bradford comprising section one, and Stouffville, Thornhill, Victoria Square, and Peaches section two.
Joe Irvine who held down the first base position for Ace Bowlers on Wednesday night in that fine ball game here, is the same Joe who did some net-minding for the Stouffville Clippers at the beginning of last winter’s senior hockey schedule.

Stouffville defeated Sutton 11-6 in a league fixture in the lakeside town on Wednesday evening. Cook turned in another superb pitching performance to keep the local nine on top of their hosts most of the way. LOCALS BEAT THE CREAM OF THE VIADUCT
The Ace Bowling team, a classy Senior Club operating in the Viaduct League in Toronto moved into town last Wednesday for an exhibition ball game. The Bowling team looked good in pre-game warm-up and a close contest seemed to be in store. Two walks were yielded in the first to Ace Bowling by Miller but
Johnson, the Ace left-fielder, hit into a neat double play to put two away. Miller then proceeded to strike the remaining batter out. The Beavers hit the ball squarely in their half but the Ace men were always in the right position at the right time and nothing was gained for the Beavers. The Ace team was held easily in the second. McKellop and Irvine grounding out and Bell striking out. Stouffville racked up two runs in their half. Cook walked to put a man on first. Cadieux reached first on a fielder’s choice but Cook was out at third. Minton walked and Jennings hit safely to bring in and push Minot to third. McMullen hit to the Ace third baseman. He threw home to cut off Minton but Minton was called safe at the plate. The next two Beaver batters grounded out. Ace garnered a hit in the third but that’s as far as things went. It was the same for Stouffville in the third. Earl Cook lined out what looked to be a sure single over the short-stop’s head in his turn at bat. The short-stop, McMurray, literally took off and pulled down the ball. The fourth was uneventful for the Ace club. One man was struck out in the Beaver’s half. Jennings worked a walk but the next batter grounded out. Two Ace batters went down swinging in the fifth as Miller showed
untested power on the mound. Stouffville’s fifth was simply three up and three down as the Ace team put on a great fielding display. The first of the sixth again saw three up and three down for Ace as all three grounded out. The Beavers worked a man as far as second on a hit by Butch Schell and a nice sacrifice by Cook but no run was scored.
The seventh was the start of the Ace’s rally. One run was scored off one hit, two walks and an error. v failed to get any breaks in their half as Ace pushed a new hurler into action by the name of Joe Courton. Courton is reputedly with the Phillie chain. The eight for Ace was another big inning. A triple by Doolittle and a long home run over Schell’s lane by McKellop was good enough for two runs to put the Ace team one ahead. The Beavers hoped to get runs in their bat and they did Hassard hit safely but was tagged out at second when he tried to push for an extra base, However Miller and Schell scored on errors and a nice hit by Earl Cook and Polly Minton to tie up and then win the game. BOB BANGAY SIGNS TO COACH CLIPPERS
The Clippers management has recently signed a contract for the services of one of the top-flight men in amateur hockey as coach of this season’s senior entry. Bob Bangay comes well recommended. He played last year with the Sydney Millionaires, an extra good Senior ‘A’ outfit in the Maritimes. A few seasons back he played with Markham in their play-off quests. In addition to coaching Bangay will also take a turn on the ice. Along with their new coach are coming several other prominent senior players of this district which all bids fair for a great hockey season coming up.

LOCAL HOCKEY CLUB TO FINANCE SELF THROUGH CARNIVAL
Stouffville Senior Hockey Club which is one of the most active hockey associations seen in town in some years, is staging a big carnival and street dance here next Wednesday evening, Aug. 2nd, for the purpose of financing itself for the coming season. The Stouffville Legion’Aires will provide the music for dancing and a fine boat fully equipped with accessories, including a Johnson motor will be given away to the lucky draw ticket holder. The club is seeking full public support in its financial effort, and hopes hundreds of fans who are anxious to see a good hockey team here this winter will show their interest by purchasing a book of draw tickets.
There’ll also be a baseball game in Memorial Park commencing at 6.30 between the local Intermediate group leaders and the hockey club which boasts an number of snappy ball players including Coach Bob Bangay, Bert Baker, Bobby Hopper, Don Couch, George Stark, Norm Stunden, Jack Watson and Mac Clement. The local division of the Tri -County League winds up its schedule this week. Stouffville plays their last game this Thursday night against Sunderland. There may be some changes though since Monday night’s game with Sunderland was rained out. The bEaversBeavers are riding on top with Port Perry, Sunderland and Sutton following closely in that order. The four local teams play-off for the division
championship and winners for the league championship. The Beavers have an entry into the O.B.A. as well as Little Britain and Cambray.
Work was going ahead on the enlarging of the parking area of the Arena this week. Several hundred yard of fill have been added and a bulldozer was at work on Tuesday leveling the ground preparatory to topping with crushed stone. Inside the Arena the hockey cushion is being given a fresh coat of paint, and the ends of the gallery seats are also being done. The bottlenecks which existed last season along the side alley ways back of the players’ boxes are being improved. It is expected that there will be ice in the Arena on or about Sept. 20th. LOCAL RINK WINS ECHARDT TROPHY
Bowling in the men’s trebles tournament in Stouffville on Friday evening, the Wm. Sanders rink composed of Thos. are and Bert Lickorish carried of the coveted Echardt Trophy. Me. Sanders also copped the cup in competition here four years ago. Last Wednesday, the Old Boy’s trophy donated by F.L. Button and Dr. G. Richardson, was won by the Yerex rink of Richmond Hill. Mr. Yerex was the singles Ontario champion in 1949. Gordon lemon’s local rink stood high for two wins, and Ed. Goodman high for one win. At Richmond Hill recently Mr. and Mrs. Lemon carried off a prize in the mixed doubles tournament, while at Aurora, Gordon lemon and Robert Johnson stood high for two wins in men’s double matches there. LOCALS SPLIT TWO GAMES WITH PORT
Stouffville Intermediate group leaders split their last two games with Port Perry in the current baseball loop winning 8-3 and losing 5-2. It was the third straight victory for Earl Cook, who has really been going great guns on the local mound this season. Harper, who started again for Port after pitching the night before lacked the control and speed, but nevertheless he went the route. The Beavers scored two runs in the first innings and were never headed from then in. Port Perry went scoreless until the fifth when well-placed hits went for extra bases. The only Stouffville hit was that of Bob Hassard who drove a nice triple to left field. Cook looked best on the mound as far as strike-outs went for he bowled down batter after batter.
Last Thursday night the Stouffville squad lacked pep and fire. Bill Harper went all the way on the hill for Port and Miller went the route for the homesters. The game was marked by numerous disputes over calls by the umpire.

The Beavers started down the playoffs trail on the right foot on Friday night winning 8-3 over Sunderland. Miller started on the hill and finished there with a well pitched game under his belt.. Miller gave up but four hits in nine innings against Farrell’s thirteen. Miler had plenty of support from his squad both in the field and at the bat. Both teams were dead-locked until the third. Sunderland then opened fire with a pair of runs. The home squad retaliated with three in their half to go one up. Sunderland went scoreless again until the seventh when they scored their final tally. The Beavers, however, made sure with three more in the sixth and two in the eighth. There were three double plays executed, two by Sunderland and one by Stouffville. BALL PLAYOFFS NOW THREE OUT OF FIVE AFFAIR
Stouffville Intermediates are presently engaged in a three-out-of-five group playoff with Sunderland in the Southern section. The winner will advance to either port Perry or Sutton. Playoffs are underway in the central and northern groups Stouffville and Little Britain have received byes into the O.B.A. Intermediate playdowns, and will be teamed up shortly with Colbourne in a three-way O.B.A. playoff series. KAISER TROPHY RETURNS TO STOUFFVILLE
For the second successive year Mr. George Lemon, ardent local bowler won the Kaiser trophy in competition at Claremont last week. The tournament was a mixed double affair and Mrs. Crossen teamed up with the local winner. Second place was won by Mr. and Mrs. Elgin Wagg also of Stouffville, and third went to Art Chester and Mrs. Street of Pickering. TRIPLE AND HOMER NOT ENOUGH AS HOCKEY BOYS LODE 11-5
Bouncing Herbie Rose of the Stouffville Clippers hit a grand slam triple on Friday night, but it wasn’t enough to win the game, as the hickey boys went down 11-5 before the more experienced Intermediates in an exhibition ball game. However, the puck chasers put up a good show, and Norm Stunden and Bobby Hopper dished up some fancy pitches to the home squad which had even some of our best batters swinging wild. Neither club scored in the first innings.The Beavers however, scored one in the second with two hits and a walk.. They added three more more in the third as the hockey club showed some shoddy fielding. The Beavers went right on rolling in the fourth with four runs off three hits and a base on balls. The hockey boys did not score until the seventh when they started a big rally. They worked four hits in succession off Porky Schell and it would have gone further but for Murray Wagg’s running catch i centre field. There were three extra base hits. A home run by Mac Clement, a triple for Herbie and a double for Butch Schell. SWAMP PLAYOFF MATES IN FINAL LEAGUE GAME
Stouffville Intermediate s swamped Sunderland 21-1 in the final game of the currant schedule played here last Wednesday night. Porky Schell tuned in a neat four hitter on the local mound. Sunderland tossed three pitchers into the fray, but all to no avail. There was no stopping the pounding Beaver bats. SOFTBALL
Jim Thomas
The girls softball league wound up their regular schedule on Friday night at Victoria square with the fourth concession squad taking the game from Peaches 24-6. The Square are a strong aggregation again this season and are going to be hard to beat. They ended well ahead in their group with our own local team finishing up in the second spot. Peaches, after their first season in organized ball, held down third place with Thornhill in the cellar. It has been a good season with supporters rallying behind their respective clubs. Victoria square made a clean sweep of the schedule with twelve wins and no loses. Stouffville were victorious on seven occasions being defeated five times. Peaches won three and lost nine. Thornhill Hill who started off the season with a win ran into a ten game losing streak. They came up with their second win on the last game of the schedule. The playoffs begin sometime next week but the exact time hans’t been set as yet.

Latest word from the Arena Co. is that the local ice will be open for skating during the week of September 25th.
Big Ross Hochberg is not expected to be with the Stouffville Clippers this winter, when they line up in Senior ‘B’ company. Hochberg has been released by the local club to go to the West Coast League. Several former members of the defunct Meteors, including the fiery Formica, will also go along.
Stouffville is not expected to be grouped with the northern teams of Collingwood, Midland, Orillia or Peterborough this coming hockey season. Camp Borden, we are told will have artificial ice, and several teams in competition. Stouffville will be shifted to the Georgetown Milton section where it is expected other senior clubs will operate. Woodbridge is also named as a likely Senior ‘B’ starter.
Harry Shuttleworth of Stouffville, and an ardent fisherman tells us he came across a rarity while fishing in a Collingwood stream recently. Harry hooked as Albino speckled trout, an absolutely clear species and
very unusual. The catch was made on a Silver Doctor fly. STAR THIRD SACKER SIDELINED BY OPERATION.
Bob Hassard, star third sacker of the Stouffville baseball nine has been sidelined for more than a week during which time he will undergo an operation on his nose. Hassard is being readied by the Maple Leaf Hockey Club to go in training shortly at St Catharines with the Leaf regulars, and the Leaf doctor advised the operation. Of the fifteen or more members of Toronto marlboros, Leaf farm club, Hassard was one of four picked to go to the big league camp this fall. Lucky, Armstrong and Bolton are the other members of the quartette who are going to en given the acid test for N.H.L. hockey. Several others will be shipped to the Leafs’ Pittsburg American league camp. The loss of Hassard is keenly felt by the local ball club, coming just at this crucial time in the playdowns.
Stouffville Intermediates have compiled a fine record this summer, losing only eight out of 44 games played. As one former Stouffville player commented

FLOODLIGHT BASEBALL SOMETHING NEW FOR STOUFFVILLE
Special lighting equipment will be furnished by Edgar V. Smith, proprietor of the Donkey Baseball Troupe which will show here next Thursday evening Sept.14th, under the sponsorship of the Stouffville
Hockey Club. In order that a larger crowd may be given an opportunity to witness this hilarious sport, the games will be played at night beneath 1500 watt globes under large reflectors mounted on 25-ft. high standards, also furnished for the event. ADVANCE TO GROUP FINALS IN TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE PLAYOFFS
Stouffville Intermediates came through in fine style on Friday evening to take the all important fifth game from Sunderland 10-1 in the Tri-County playoffs. Since each team had come up with two wins the fifth and deciding encounter was a do-or-die affair. The locals started the game off with three runs without a reply from the northerners. The second innings was a repeat performance of the first as Cook, an old master at the art of curves and drops, threw fine ball. In the locals half of the second Jennings walked followed by Minton who took the easy way to first. Butch Schell then blasted a single to drive in two runs. The opposition then settled down to retire the next three batters. With a 5-0 lead under their belts the
boys held their ground to keep the Sunderland batters off the bases until the fourth when an error in the outfield allowed a ground single to be stretched into a double. The second batter singled and with runners on first and third a short grounder to Miller brought in the opposition’s one and only run.
The big fourth innings for Stouffville proved to be the deciding clincher as the locals slugged the ball for
four runs. Minton led off with a single and moved to second on a similar hit by K. Schell. Cook sacrificed Minton to third and Porky Schell batted him in with a perfect double. The highlight of the game came as Hassard lifted the leather over the fence for a grand slam home run. With their lead increased by Four runs, Miller was called out on a close play at first and Cadieux flied out to retire the side.. Playing red hot ball the locals pulled off a split second double play to completely knock the heart out of the visitors. The
Stouffville squad came up with their final run in the sixth as Porky Schell singled and Miller lined a grass cutting double into the outfield. Cadieux credited himself with Abu B.B.I. as he was thrown out short to first. Schell romped home to make the final count 10-1. It was a good game although Sunderland nine failed to show the snap and fire of former encounters. The local had Cook on the mound all the way with B. Schell back of the plate. Miller held down the first sack with Minton on second and Hassard on third. L. Schell covered short with Jennings, McMullen and Cadieux in the outfield. HOCKEY CLUB BRINGS DONKEY BASEBALL SEPT. 14
Stouffville and district is in for a real evening of hilarious entertainment next Thursday evening, Sept., 14th, when the Stouffville Hockey Club will present the Rocky Mountain Baseball in Memorial Park here. The game commencing at 8.30 is played under flood lights, part of the equipment provided by the visiting company. Donkey Ball is a hilarious burlesque of baseball. The game has become one of the great laugh sensations. It is played in the same manner as baseball but the players are mounted on real live donkeys during the game. For instance, a batter after hitting the ball mounts his donkey and rides to first base. If he is successful in reaching the initial sack, he must continue on his way to the other bases in the same manner. The team in the field is likewise mounted on burros. The game is a hilarious affair with the trained animals causing the base runners plenty of trouble with their baulking tactics. Teams will be made up of local men.

COACH BANGAY GETS INTO STRIDE WITH NEW HOCKEY TEAM
Last weekend saw Stouffville Clippers work out for the first time on their home ice under the eye of he new local coach Bob Bangay. The boys got in another drill on Tuesday night with a number of new faces
in the lineup. Regulars back with the club include Gord Lewis, Don Couch, Bob Hopper, Bill Bradbury, Jack Harper, Les Clarke and Polly Minton. Kent Storry who led the Senior ‘A’ Cape Breton league performers was one of the new try-outs, along with another ex-Georgetown star, Al Gibson. Gibson played in the cape Breton league last year under Coach Sweenie Schiner. George Stark and his playing mate Coach Bangay were getting the kinks out too along with a half a dozen newcomers from Toronto. Last season with Markham, Norm Stunden, Keith Jewett, Ken Bremen, Jack Watson and Reg Singleton are also looking for a spot on the club. Markham Millionaires also held their initial tryout last weekend and a number of the players took advantage of the chance to get in a double practice. Just who will be playing for who is anyone’s guess, but since the league is expected to start much earlier than usual this year, players will have to make up their minds pronto just where they are headed and either sign up or move to free ice elsewhere. O.M.H.A. WILL NOT ENCOURAGE SUNDAY HOCKEY GAMES
Meeting at Fenelon Falls last week, the O.M.H.A. executive announced the raise in entry fees since the organization was formed in 1935. Mounting operational costs have made necessary a $2 per team boost in entry fees. For this season they will be $7 per team for Juvenile and Midget clubs, $5 for Bantam teams. The annual convention will be asked to confirm this shove. The executive committee will also propose to the convention that minor players be permitted to compete in an unlimited number of O.H.A. game up to Dec. 15. Players who take part in O.H.A. games after Dec. 15 must not have played in more than three games all told. The executive has already tightened restrictions on the ‘D’ series, the association’s lowest population classification. Although classification of teams is left to the executive, they will in future be bound by a rule that restricts the ‘D’ series to teams from villages of approximately 1,000 or less population. They may sign players residing outside the village represented. providing they live
within five miles of the post office (or centre of the village) for which they play. Teams will be permitted to sign players from other villages within the five-mile limited providing the combined population of the villages does not exceed 1,000. Sunday sport will not be encouraged by O.M.H.A. and no teams will be ordered to play on the Sabbath. INTERMEDIATES TO PLAY IN O.B.A.
Intermediates may be heading for their first baseball championship in history this fall. The local Intermediates, after winning three rounds of the Ontario playdowns in decisive fashions have been given a bye into the final round for the O.B.A. championship. The club eliminated Little Britain in the first round, then Colbourne, and their latest conquest was Lennox County champs, winners of the ‘D’ or Eastern Ontario section. Six teams still remain in the running, but according to word from O.B.A. headquarters, Stouffville is slated to meet the winner of the other five which will set the date of the finals ahead for at least ten days. Waterdown who eliminated Milton, are awaiting the winners of the Delhi-Caledonia series, while Alliston is slated to go against Creemore. Since these teams are all fairly closely closely bunched in the same locality, Stouffville has been allowed to stand by and await a winner for the title round. Stouffville has hardily ever been without an Intermediate baseball entry in some thirty years, except for a time during the war. A number of times the local squad has reached the payoff trail only to be bowled over by another contender. Twice the club looked headed for the crown and two years in succession they were eliminated on the Oakville grounds, another time it of was Penetang, and another, Peterborough. Those were the days of Red Forsyth, Milt. Storey, Wes Boadway, Earl Clendenning, Murray and Pete Clendenning, Reesor and Lunau from Markham. The town was also represented for a number of years in the Tri-County, as it is again today, but they never quite made the grade — this could be the year. Only one Ontario championship has ever rested in Stouffville, and that was the Junior Lacrosse crown which is going back quite a few years. TRI-COUNTY GROUP FINAL ALL TIED UP
Stouffville Intermediates and Sutton were all tied up Monday night in their Tri-County group final. Stouffville took the first game of the two-out-of-three round in Sutton by the narrow margin of 1-0, and on
Monday night the game ended in a tie 5-5. Sutton almost climbed clinched the game in the last innings, but lanky Miller stole home to tie the count. Cook went the distance for the home team and Colbourne pitched for Sutton. The third and deciding game is being here in Memorial Park this Wednesday night. The winner will advance against the two remaining group winners in the central and western sections of the Tri-County setup. ROLLED UP BIG SCORE ON LENNOX TEAM
Stouffville gained the third step in the Intermediate O.B.A. playoffs by defeating the Lennox Bees in two straight games on Wednesday and Saturday last week. The local nine won the first game was played here which held up play for some time on Saturday in a cold drizzle in the sixth innings, and threatened at times to drown out the contest entirely. Stouffville won the game 6-1 aided to a great extent by the visitors bobbies in the field. Miller went all the way for Stouffville on Saturday, and kept the easterners well in check with the exception of a pair of doubles which came in the third innings and accounted for the pair of doubles which came in the third innings and accounted for the visitors’ lone tally. Stouffville pounded out the offerings off two left-handers. Lennox Bees are a club sponsored by a paper mill concern north of Napanee and represent the last team in O.B.A. competition in eastern Ontario.

Stouffville Intermediates doubled the score on Little Britain in their first meeting in the Tri-County league finals played on the northern diamond Monday afternoon. The local lads were too much for the home club all the way, and clinched matters with a six-run burst in the last innings. Miller went the distance on the mound for Stouffville, while the local batters blasted three Little Britain hurlers from the hill, Squires,
Wickett and McTaggart. Scarcely a Stouffville batter failed to hit, and Ted Cadieux proved one of the most potent getting one of the most potent getting three doubles and a single. PLAYERS WILL PARLEY WITH MARKHAM OVER RELEASES
The hunt is on earnest to supply both the Markham Millionaires and Stouffville Clippers lineups, and as usual it appears there is going to be traffic between the two clubs. Norm Stunden, goal, George and Fred Scott, defence , Wayson, Baker, Brennan, Singleton, Bell members of last year’s Markham club have been working out with Stouffville this fall and have signified their desire to sign local certificates the moment they are cleared with a Markham release. While several of the lads turned out for a couple of Markham practices prior to switching to Stouffville, the Scott brothers, husky defence pair, have been practicing in the local arena exclusively. Markham for their part are eyeing Stouffville’s two top scorers from last year’s club, Gord Lewis and Don Couch. Stouffville executive proposed that each club give the other a blanket release covering all the players in the club, thus making every player a free agent to seek his own team. However, this plan did not meet with favour by the Markham hockey chiefs, and is also frowned upon by the O.H.A. Big reason for the switch over of Markham players to the Stouffville camp is very obvious to those who know the inside operators of a Senior hockey club today. Stouffville is ready to guarantee their players a definite sum of the “long green,” while Markham operates on a strictly “split” basis, with the players receiving a share of the net proceeds at the end of a season, and of course today it’s not sport the players are after. The Millionaires who wish to make the jump to the Clippers Club will likely make one more attempt to reach an amicable settlement with Markham executive and he released before appealing to the O.H.A. Board.
Both clubs have shown good turnouts each practice. Markham has had quite a sprinkling of former Toronto Meteor talent, along with some new Toronto faces and oldsters such as Sluce, Jewett, and others. Stouffville, in addition to the half dozen of last year’s Millionaire squad have had the bulk of their ’49-50 team back, including Sayliss, Thomas, Hopper, Minton, Rose, Clarke, Bradbury, Couch and Lewis. Newcomers include Wade, a big husky last year, with Toronto Staffords, and now resident in Stouffville, Armstrong, former east coast player, Stark who teams up with player, Stark who teams up with playing coach Bob Bangay, and Gibson, another east coast Senior ‘A’ player, with Georgetown several years ago. Several other Toronto Junior ‘B’ players have also turned out. FENELON FALLS HERE NEXT WEDNESDAY IN TRI-COUNTY FINALS
Stouffville will travel to Fenelon Falls this Wednesday afternoon to meet the northerners in the Tri-County league finals. The Falls will return here the following Wednesday afternoon at 4 o’clock, when the bleachers are expected to be jammed for the all-important final. In this final round robin series for the Tri-County Trophy, Stouffville have played one game and have come up with one win; Little Britain, 3 games and 3 losses; Fenelon Falls, 2 games and 2 wins. HASSARD BACK BASEBALL LINEUP
Bob Hassard whose absence from the Stouffville Intermediates lineup, and will be playing in Fenelon Falls with the club this Wednesday afternoon in the Tri-County league finals. Hassard left the local club for a try-out with the Leafs, was shifted to the Leafs’ Pittsburg camp at Niagara Falls, but is now back with his last year’s club, the Toronto Marlboros, and is thus able to resume his baseball here. NEW SETUP PUTS CLIPPERS IN ALLAN CUP COMPETITION
The famed Allan Cup, goal of Senior ‘A’ hockey supremacy in Canada, has now been set up as a target for all Senior teams in the country. Under the new O.H.A. setup there will no longer be Senior ‘A’ and “B’ classifications. The Senior ‘A’ teams have been formed into what are known as Major loops, and the present Senior ‘B’s such as Stouffville, will compete for the Allan Cup. The local Major series will consist of Marlboros, St. Michael’s, Hamilton and Kitchener-Waterloo. There will be four such loops in Canada. One in Western Canada, one in Ontario, one in Quebec and one in the Maritimes. They will play-off for a new trophy, the Alexander Cup.
It’s quite an important hockey change, and it remains to be seen if the local Clippers can keep pace, both financially and otherwise with this “big time” brand of hockey. Prospects for this season look particularly rosy. Present league setup is only guesswork, but it could be Stouffville, Markham, Georgetown, Weston and Newmarket (Intermediate ‘A’) The newly formed Major series will be a 42-game schedule, commencing in mid-October. Word from the O.H.A. headquarters are that it is hoped to have the Senior schedules in operation in November.

CLIPPERS STAGE POWERFUL GAME AGAINST THE IRISH
(
Displaying one of the most powerful teams ever witnessed in this rink Bob Bangay’s fast skating boys turned in a terrific performance against the hard hitting Irish. From the drop of the puck both teams went all out in regular Senior ‘A’ style with everything a hockey fan would want to see. The St. Mike’s squad which had scored an 8-2 victory a couple of weeks ago ran up against even tougher opposition as our local boys seemed to be in better physical condition than on their previous appearance. Harper held down the goal tending chores for the first two periods being replaced in the final frame. Both netminders pulled off some goods stops. All the players turned in a bang up performances. The return of Hochberg to the defence added a power of strength to the rearguard. Rose also seems to be headed for a good year. Up front the line of Stark, McCrone and Sayliss put on some nice passing plays netting three of the Clippers’ four markers. For the visitors the standouts were of course such players as Hannigan, Sullivan, Fowler and Kennedy whose experience in semi-pro ranks has placed them with the best in the league. Sullivan accounted for two goals as did Hannigan, Fowler, Kennedy, McCracken and coach O’Flaherty each blinked the light on one occasion. In the first period while the Clippers were pressing the Irish into their own zone Blair broke free and slipped the rubber to McCracken who made no mistake. Four minutes later Sullivan grabbed the puck at his own blueline to skate up alone and fire a sizzling blueline shot into the lower corner of the net. At 11.30 the Toronto lads added another with Fowler doing the honours unassisted and two minutes later Kennedy scored from Psutka and Fowler to put the visitors four up. Nearing the end of the period and with two St. Mike’s players serving time Bradbury rifled a low drive past Hughes in the visitors cage on a pass from Gordon to put the locals in the game. The period ended with the Irish leading 4-1. The first real fight of the season was staged by Rose and Ubriaco, the latter having the need of the doctor’s attention after hitting his head on the ice. In the second, the Clippers went all out but could not seem to beat Hughes in the St. Mike’s net. On one occasion Stark parked in front of the net had the goalie at his mercy only to bounce it off his arm. Not until the last minute in the play did the Irish break through again with Hannigan netting two goals only seconds apart to take a 6-1 lead. Determined not to let the College boys have the game completely their own way from a scoring angle, the speedy Stark, McCrone, Sayliss netting the first goal from Stark after only 20 seconds of the third period had passed. A minute later Stark netted the rubber on a close in ganging attack. Now leading by only three goals and netted two more with O’Flaherty getting the first and Sullivan the second to put them five goals up. At 14.20 McCrone tore down centre relayed to Hochberg who flipped it to Sayliss flying in on the net. George let go for the last scoring play of the those present could not deny the fact that the Clippers have great prospects for the coming season. Andy Bellemer handled the game aided by linesmen Laushway and Granger. Next week the local squad play host to the high flying Georgetown Raiders who have had a top notch club for the past few years. It should give the boys a real workout. HOME TOWN GAME WITH GEORGETOWN THIS WEEK
Stouffville Clippers will meet Georgetown Raiders in a home and home exhibition hockey series this week. The first game is slated for Georgetown this Thursday night with the return match in Stouffville
this Saturday night. Jack Rhodes, former star goalie with the Raiders when this team captured the Intermediate ‘A’ title several seasons ago, will be in the Stouffville net facing some of his former teammates. JR ST.MIKE’S COULDN’T COME, BARRIE PAYS $2000 FOR PLAYERS
Fans got a surprise at the arena on Thursday night when they found the St. Michael’s Major on hand for that exhibition game with the Clippers rather than the advertised. Truth of the matter was, the Junior ‘A’ club couldn’t make it and rather let Stouffville down, Coach O’Flaherty agreed to bring back the Senior Club. St. Michael’s Junior Club has been awarded to Barrie Flyers off the club, and another to Guelph Blithers. Glen Howes, Leo Labine and George Stanutz are the three Barrie-bound juniors while Willie Marshall is labelled for Guelph. St. Michael’s protested both deals. The Toronto team got $2,000 and players William Sexton and McDonald from Barrie. Toronto Marlboros got Danny Poland from Barrie in the same transaction. The meeting, which lasted until 2.30 a.m., also dealt with other players’ status.
In the case of Willie Marshall, St. Mike’s was given $500 and players Ken Laushway and H. Negladuk. The ruling said Kaufman must not be transferred by the Toronto team during the 1950-51 season. MARKHAM PLAYERS RETURN, DEMAND EXECUTIVE CHANGE
Markham hockey players have settled their differences with this year’s executive, and will return to the Millionaire fold. The one stipulation made by the players when they met with the executive during the weekend was that the former Millionaire coach Earl Robinson be recalled. This demand created rather a toughy shakeup as present mentor Max Reesor had to bow to their wishes and resign his post. However the change has been affected and the team will continue to operate if Robinson will again take up the coaching reins. Prior to the meeting Manager Bill Conlin resigned his post and the vacanty has been filled by former secretary John Wegg. Matters in the Markham camp had run into a snag, with a large percentage of the older players on strike, and “dickering” for releases to join the Stouffville Clippers. The O.H.A. refused passage to Stouffville, the Clippers management proceeded to round out the local roster without the services of any of the ex-Markhamites. This left the dollar men out on a limb. Markham had refused any releases and the boys were due to “sit this one out,” if some compromise couldn’t be reached. with new team which Markham iced at Oshawa last week was much below the usual Millionaire standard and it looked like anything but a paying proposition for the executive.

Stouffville Senior Hockey Club on whom local fans are pinning their hopes for a great season here is being managed by L.O’Neill, Manager, W. Rennie, Secretary, Norman Baker, Treasurer. These men who were appointed to this important post by the Stouffville Arena Company. One of the latest additions to the Clippers senior hockey squad is Earl McCrone, a real hustler. McCrone played his last season’s hockey with Akron, Ohio, in the International League, southern division.
A new hockey league opened their triple schedule in the Stouffville Arena on Saturday morning. The Toronto Oil Company League, comprising six clubs, will play a double-header every Saturday morning throughout the winter commencing at 10 a.m. Teams are sponsored by the several big oil companies.
We notice a number of people commenting on the size of the new goal crease that is now a must under the C.A.H.A. rules. Crease instead of ending at the goal posts now extends three feet on each side. Idea behind the extended crease is to give the goalie more protection and to stop offensive players standing off the side of the net. Many goals have been scored from there in previous seasons.
A bus has been chartered to take the Clippers to Collingwood on Nov. 18th, but a few seats will be available for public sale.
If you haven’t yet contacted secretary T. W. Rennie of the Stouffville Hockey Club concerning your advertisement in this season’s Official Hockey Program, you should do it now as the book goes to press within the next couple of weeks. Bob Snowball had his local O.M.H.A. Midget entry on the ice for the first time on Wednesday night and has some husky looking lot of material to work on. Bob Hassard of Toronto Marlboros is lending a hand.

( By Jim Thomas)
After taking a two goal lead in the first period and holding it throughout the second the Clippers received a couple of fateful penalties in the closing minutes of the game to let the Millionaires tie the score with only seconds left to play. The Junior threesome for Markham known as the “Kid Line” were the big guns all the way sniping three of the six markers and being dangerous on every rush. For the locals the two hard-hitting defence pair of Nick Bangay and Hochberg turned in terrific performances shaking up the opposing
forwards on many occasions. Up front Milton showed well with a goal and two assists. Gibson also was a top marksman with two goals. Rhodes held the fort on every clear shot with all six tallies being netted from scrambles in which his view was blocked. Penalties were numerous and played an important part in the scoring. A few flare-ups and fistic encounters which always occur in a hard fought game were quickly broken up by the referees who ruled the game with a firm hand. The Clippers opened the scoring at 1.10 with Gibson banging in a low shot from Minton. The Millionaires recovered themselves and burst in on Rhodes but the stocky netminder came up with a great save. A matter of minutes later Stark flew down the wing, centred out to McCrone who in turn relayed the rubber to Sayliss. He made no mistake and tucked the puck in the corner to put his team two up. At 4.55 with Sayliss serving time Minton pole checked his man and sped down alone to grab the loose puck and blink the light for goal number three. With only three minutes remaining in the period, Clements and Gray, newcomers to the Markham squad, combined to beat Rhodes on a close in play. In the second period Stouffville received two penalties and Markham turned on the pressure. N. Bangay, Hochberg and Gibson went out to defend the fort and put on a great display of defensive work. Bangay and Hochberg from about the best blueline two-some attacking players sprawled and bounced from their solid body-checks. At 6.42 Markham tallied with Galen again putting his team in the running from Clements and Gray. Less than a minute later Gibson let go with a bullet shot from the blueline after Minton and Hochberg has started the play. At 9.30 Clarke led the attack for the Clippers through the entire length of the ice and set up McCrone who sank the rubber behind Stunden. At the midway mark in the game Gibson of Markham tallied from Sluce and Brennan to beat Rhodes unassisted to put the Millionaires within one gaol of the high flying Clippers. The last goal was hotly disputed as Rhodes claimed the puck had not gone over the goal line. Fans sitting directly back of the net also claimed it was no goal but the word of the goal judge decided the issue. Determined to get back that Bangay fired a rising shot into the top corner from the blue line which Stunden never moved on. The period ended with the Clippers still holding a two goal lead. The third period was more of a defensive twenty minutes for the Clippers as they tried to retain their two goal advantage. Baker of Markham received the on lie major penalty of the game for combing Couch with his stick. He later had a misconduct added to his five minute detention in the cooler. At 15.30 with Couch off Galen fired his third marker assisted by his line mates Clement and Gray. With only a minute and a half remaining Coach Robinson pulled Stunden from the net for an extra forward. Previous to this move Stark was banished for a two minute penalty and Nick Bangay received a match misconduct for pushing the ref. around. With only three players on the ice facing a full Markham squad plus an extra forward a face-off was called in the Clippers end. In a wild scramble around their goal Gibson of Markham banged in the loose puck with H. Forgie and Singleton picking up the assist. The goal came at 19.21, a matter of seconds before the end of the game. It was a great third period comeback for the Millionaire squad and should produce plenty of interest for Wednesday night’s contest when the two rivals meet once again. OWEN SOUND OPEN SENIOR HOCKEY SEASON HERE ON TUESDAY
Stouffville Clippers will perform in a seven-team senior hockey loop, reaching from Owen Sound in the north to Markham in the south. The seven clubs will play a double schedule. Owen Sound who are expected to be the No. 1 team to beat this winter will be here on opening night. Stouffville will travel to Owen Sound this Saturday night. The Owen Sounders operated in the Senior ‘A’ circuit last winter with Kitchener, Hamilton and Marlboros, but found the going too tough and were allowed to drop to the Senior ‘B’ ranks. DECEMBER 7 1950 OWEN SOUND RALLIES WITH FOUR GOALS TO WIN 7-5
The 1950-51 Senior ‘B’ season was officially opened on Saturday night as our local Clippers took on Owen Sound, last year in Senior ‘A’ competitions but stepping down to Senior ‘B’ ranks this season. The puck was faced at centre ice by Mayor Eddie Sargeant of Owen Sound and was dropped between centres Minton of the Clippers and Burlington of the Mercurys. After a few words from his worship settled down to actual play. In the opening minutes both teams played it cagey trying to feel out the other’s weak points and wait for the breaks. The Mercurys, made up of many well built players, seemed slow and out of condition in the opening period as the locals field the edge in territorial play and missed on many close in chances. Rhodes came up with some great saves as the opposition seemed very fast on breaks from the blueline. The Clippers absent their ace defenceman Nick Bangay had to rely on their three rearguards Clark, Hochberg and Rose who turned in a great game until sheer exhaustion forced them to let down in the final minutes as the northern boys tied the score and pulled ahead. In the first period both teams started slow until Bradbury picked up a loose puck i front of his own net and relayed to Minton who flew down the wing to the blueline. Hochberg cruising down the other wing took Minton’s perfect pass and sank the rubber past Gibson in the Mercurys’ cage. A minute later Burlington of Owen Sound fired the first of his three goals as he found himself alone in front of Rhodes. At the twelve minute mark the Couch, Hopper, Lewis line forged in over the blueline and in a wild scramble in front of Gibson, Couch lying the net. Burlington, standout performer for the Mercurys put his team back on even terms again as he outguessed the local defence to beat Rhodes on a low corner drive. The Clippers continued however, to dominate the play and Lewis capitalized on passes from Clark and Couch to end the period with the Clippers on the top of a 3-2 score. The second period was a repeat performance of the first as the Clippers continued to overshadow their rivals in territorial play but were robbed of sure goals on many clear breaks. Gibson found himself in alone only only to have his bullet drive bounce off the post. Lewis also missed on a breakaway as Gibson kicked his shot aside. At 10.25, however, Hopper let go with a long shot from near the blueline which slipped into the net off a skate. Near the end of the period MacDonald tallied from Burlington with Gibson serving a tripping penalty and ended the period with the locals still leading 4-3. In the final twenty minutes the pace began to tell on the Clipper rearguard as the absence of Bangay began to show. At 10.40 Burlington scored followed by a goal from McReavy a minute later to put his team in the lead. Midway through the period MacDonald of the Mercurys popped in his second goal unassisted to give the Mercurys popped in his second goal unassisted to give the Mercurys a 6-4 lead. The Lewis line still set the pace with Couch scoring his second goal with Lewis
and Hopper picking up assists. Owen Sound ended the scoring at 18.06 with Bukacheski beating Rhodes from McLernon. The final score read Owen Sound 7, Stouffville 5. The game was cleanly played with all penalties being for minor offences.
Owen Sound was not too pleased with the refereeing at their 4-2 loss here in town the other night, and the daily Sun-Times had this to say about the affair: “It might be a trifle unfair to say that the refereeing in the Owen Sound-Stouffville game Tuesday nigh…
Owen Sound was not too pleased with the refereeing at their 4-2 loss here in town the other night, and the daily Sun-Times had this to say about the affair: “It might be a trifle unfair to say that the refereeing in the Owen Sound-Stouffville game Tuesday night was biased — so we’ll just mention that the referee was a Toronto man, well known in Stouffville and the linesman was the manager of the Stouffville Arena. Draw your own conclusions.” CURLERS’ NOTICE
Any curler wishing to join the Ontario Curling Association, contact Walter C. Brillinger, secretary-treasurer, Stouffville Curling Club, ph 174w ALLISTON-MARKHAM PROTEST LEAGUE SETUP
Markham Millionaires made several urgent appeals to Stouffville Manager L.E. O’Neill last week to join with themselves and Alliston to endeavour to have the present Senior Hockey League broken up into two sections, to avoid making trips to the three northern municipalities of Owen Sound, Collingwood and Midland. Markham protested the setup on the grounds that the trips, particularly Owen Sound jaunt was too far, in addition Coach Earl Robinson stated that several of the Millionaire players could not quit work in time to make the long hop. Alliston’s protest was a financial matter.
The O.H.A. told the delegation that they had previously agreed to the grouping and would have to abide by it. Newmarket, Alliston and Markham made a bad mistake when they failed to do any complaining at the league meeting. John Wegg readily agreed to the setup at the time for Markham, but since left the club, and taken considerable panning from other executive members for making the agreement. The Stouffville Management while admitting that the Owen Sound hop was quite a lengthy one, did not go for cutting the league down to a ring-around-a-rosie setup with just three or four teams. ”People get sick and tired of looking at the same teams play all winter, and besides Owen Sound is a good drawing card for us, and after all we only have to go there twice.” Manager O’Neill stated to The Tribune. Toronto Allistons beef is an old one, put every year by these Senior clubs coming out of the city. They have little financial backing to start with and cry hard times all winter long. They’re only a headache to every O.H.A. group they get into and would be better off playing exhibition games if they don’t want to travel. CLAMP DOWN ON FOUL-MOUTHED PLAYERS
The Ontario Hockey Association last week cracked down on popoff foul-mouthed hockey players, coaches and game officials. Automatic three-game suspensions will follow every offense, the executive committee ruled after listening to reports of complaints on a practice which has become far too prevalent.
Determined to stamp out the trend of referee abuse in all series from major to junior ‘D’, the O.H.A. made a blistering denouncement of such practices. “We must protect referees and the fans from unwarranted abuse,” declared President Jack Roxburgh. Patrons sitting near penalty boxes in various games have complained about off-colour language used by hockey future greats.The executive put a new regulation in the book calling for an automatic three-game suspension for any offence on the part of players
or club officials. Referees have been instructed to make a full report of such abuses and while the three-game suspension is automatic, further penalties may be dealt out if the situation merits. On the suggestion of Dinty Moore, past president, the clubs will be notified of this new regulation and it will go into effect on Dec. 15th.

STOUFFVILLE IN “BACKWOODS”, BUT HAS NICE ARENA
So says Les Smith, Owen Sound Sun-Times sports columnist, and sports analyst on the radio station there. “Although Stouffville is a little almost backwoods town not far from Toronto, they’ve got an Arena that any town or city in Canada will be proud to own. Constructed just recently, it’s modern and up-to-date in every way. The population of the country town is just about fifteen hundred, and almost every man, woman and child turns out when it’s hockey night in the Arena. To reach the municipality from Aurora means traveling over about fifteen miles of country roads that wind and twist like a snake.
Signs are apparently unheard of in that part of the country and a stranger must depend entirely on information gleaned from garage and store owners or pedestrians on the road. And if you’ve ever stopped to ask anyone, very familiar with a certain district how to reach a town, you’ll understand the problems the
Mercury hockey team had in traveling to Stouffville. The had to make dozens of inquiries and consequently were a little late arriving. It’s not difficult to reach Aurora, but from then on things get complicated. You stop, after traveling for seemingly endless miles on end and inquire of a passing farmer, “Which way to Stouffville, friend?” The reply is nearly always the same: “Down this road about five hundred and eighty-nine rods, turn left at the cemetery on the corner until you come to I Eata Margarine’s farm and then you go right on until you come to town.”

Polly Minton suffered possible slight concussion in a mishap in Saturday night’s Senior Hockey game when he crashed with a team-mate. He will be out of action for several games.
The Clippers win over Collingwood 6-3 was more notable since the locals were three men short for two periods, and two for one period. Neither Ross Hochberg nor Earl McCrone were in the lineup and Minton
was injured as the second period started and never returned.
There was some very loose refereeing in Saturday night’s Collingwood game by the visiting O.H.A. official from Oshawa. he took constant abuse from the Collingwood players particularly, and it was necessary fro local lineman Ken Laushway to speak to ohm on several occasions to bolster the visiting official so that the game could continue. It seems to be fashionable today to continually squawk over official decisions, and it is one that should be curbed most strenuously. Goalie Westbrook left himself wide open for a three game suspension for his language used on the referee. The Clippers are as guilty as any of the visiting clubs for their continual beefing. There is a definite ignorance of the rules on the part of some, and merely a grandstand exhibition by others. For the O.H.A.’s part, they should certainly see that a higher brand of officials that that which was witnessed here Saturday night. HOCKEY STANDING O.H.A. SENIORS

On Saturday night the Clippers extended their winning streak to five games as they scored a 6-3 win over Collingwood. The Clippers started the game three men short with Bradbury out with a shoulder ailment and McCrone and Hochberg failing to show up. Hardly had the second period got underway when Minton suffered a head injury when he collided headlong into Stark as they both crossed the blueline in the Collingwood end. he was helped off the ice where his injury was given doctor’s attention. Coach Bangay had to bank his hopes on two forward lines which came through with two goals in the later part of the second period and a lone marker in the third to take the game. Couch continues to head the scoring parade with two goals. Gibson who is proving to be one of the most potent backcheckers on the team went all out in a offensive way as well as with a goal and two assists to his credit. Gowling turned in the best effort for the visitors with two markers. Cockrane notched the other tally. Milton opened the scoring as he banged in Gibson’s rebound. Stark who played a great game all night, and set up the play. The period ended with the Clippers leading 1-0 At 1.59 of the second Couch netted his first tally after Clarke let drive with a hard blueline shot. Four minutes later Collingwood broke the ice on a play that looked from a spectators viewpoint a way offside. The long pass put Cockrane in the clear giving Rhodes no chance on the play. With Allan of the Shipbuilders serving tome Couch drove a shot from behind the net which hit a skate and caromed into the twine. The visitors suddenly caught fire as Gowing netted the rubber twice, the goals being only seconds apart. this set the homesters back on their heels as they realized their two goal lead had been wiped out. At 14.43, however, Gibson flipped a pass to Stark standing in front of the open net. George made no mistake and put his club in the lead to stay. Near Th. end of the period Lewis slapped in Clarke’s shot to give the Clippers a 5-3 lead. The third period was a shoot-and-chase battle with both goalies having to be extra good on breakaways. Only one goal was scored — that by Gibson from Sayliss at 17.58 The cowed failed to see the much talked about Eddie Bush who failed to make the trip but officials were given a tough night without the presence of the husky rearguard as his team argued and complained about almost every play. Wilson of Oshawa and Ken Laushway handled the game. CLIPPERS ROUTE ALLISTON 10-0
(By Jim Thomas)
Playing in the newly built Alliston arena before a very slim crowd of home fans the Clippers scored an easy 10-0 victory and gave Goalie Rhodes his first shutout of the season. The locals skated through their opponents almost at will and gave Buffy in the Royals’ cage a busy night. the fast skating locals took advantage of their weak opposition to add to their scoring totals. Sayliss was top man for the night scoring three goals. Minton and Lewis each connected for two. Sayliss started the scoring after three minutes of play on passes from Sark and McCrone. Lewis tallied his first goal two minutes later and
Sayliss added another with Stacey of the Royals in the penalty box. At 11.14 Hopper and Hochberg combined to set Lewis up for his second goal and give the Clippers a 4-0 lead. Near the end of the period Minton picked up a loose puck at centre to skate in alone and pull Buffy completely out of the net for his first tally. of the night. In the second period Polly opened the scoring as he skated in alone to pull exactly the same play as on his previous goal. Sark then made to goal number seven and Hopper added another to end the period. In the final twenty minutes the Clippers held the puck in the Alliston’s end most of the time as they seemed determined to give Rhodes a perfect night. Only two goals were scored by Sayliss and Bangay to run the count up to the double figures. It was a poor game for the fans to watch especially since the Alliston club is in such a critical financial state but that fact didn’t hold the C;pipers back as they completely dominated the play.

Stouffville and Markham are expected to draw a bumper crowd at the local arena when they clash for the second scheduled meeting this Saturday night. The game is very important one with first place at stake. the Clippers dunked the Millionaires in their first meeting and if they can do it again will increase their first place margin to three points. However, if Markham can turn the trick in this second meeting, they can gain the top rung by a one point margin. Owen Sound is idle until next Tuesday when they meet Newmarket for the first time. Collingwood, Alliston and Midland continue to be mired in the league cellar with little hope of pulling out. Newmarket, despite their injury list have been doing well and are right on the heels of the league leaders. CLIPPERS OUTSHOT MIDLAND 3 TO1 , TO DUMP FLYERS 7-1
In the first game played at Midland on Thursday night the Clippers completely overpowered their lighter rivals and only for the great work of Gagnon in the Flyers net kept the locals from maybe doubling the score. In the one-sided contest the hardworking netminder had to handle 40 shots while Rhodes had a comparatively east time with only 16 stops to his credit. With Bradbury and Minton out with injuries,
and Clarke failing to make the trip, Coach Bangay had to fall back on two attacking forward lines which proved all the strength necessary for an easy win. Only for the last goal in the third period spoiled the chances for Rhodes as the puck slide in during a wild scramble around the net. Sayliss was the only two goal man for the Clippers with the other tallies being divided between Couch, Lewis, Stark,
Bangay and Hopper. In the first period the Flyers started out fast and looked as if they might give the local boys a real battle but they could not keep up to the faster skating homesters and within a matter of minute the play began to swing into the Flyers and with Gagnon putting on a great display before letting the first goal slip through. On the first tally Couch and Hopper set lewis up for a perfect three way goal. The Flyers held on until midway through the period when Sayliss went in to score the first of his two goals on passes from Stark and Hochberg. At 15.07 Bangay picked up a loose puck in front of the Midland goal
and promptly fired it home for goal number three. Couch and Lewis were credited with assists on the play.
Only a little more than a minute had passed in the second period when Hopper set sayliss up for his second marker and the speedy winger fired goal number five unassisted to end the period. In the second
twenty minutes Gagnon had twenty saves to make while Rhodes was called to the rescue on only five occasions. In the final period the clippers added three mer goals to their total and the Flyers notched their total and the Flyers notched their lone counter. rSark who played a great game for the locals going both ways wheeled in on the net and scored with a low drive to the corner. Couch who continues to lead the scoring parade kept his goal scoring record intact after being given a perfect pass by Lewis. Hopper picked up his fourth point of the night by assisting on the play. At exactly 19.28 just thirty seconds before the close of the game Collings banged in a loose puck to spoil a perfect night for goalie rhodes. Machin, husky rearguard for the Clippers who has shown surprising improvement since his first showing here turned in a good game as did Hochberg. Stark looked best up front with his lone ruses catching the eye of many of the Midland supporters.

CLIPPERS HUMBLE MIDLAND IN TWO STRAIGHT GAMES, OPPOSITION WEAK
The local Clippers ran their undefeated streak to seven straight games as they skate through the Midland Flyers to score a total of 19 goals in two games. The locals allowed only three tallies against them. The
Clippers downed the Flyers 7-1 in their first contest and really let loose before the home fans on Saturday night to riddle the visitors by a 12-2 count. By their double win the Clippers continued to hang on to the top rung of the O.H.A. Big Seven Senior League. he second encounter was a repeat performance of the first as the visitors proved no match for the local; crew. Sayliss and McCrone climbed into contention on the scoring parade with three goals each. Clarke and Minton connected for two markers apiece while Lewis and Rose each added one. Hochberg was missing from the lineup and Bradbury is still on the injured list. Only thirty-two seconds had gone by when Sayliss bagged the first of his three markers. A minute later Clarke romped through the entire Midland team for a perfect goal and his defence partner Herbie Rose made it 3-0 with Soyer of the Flyers serving time on a tripping penalty. Midway through the period McCrone smooth working Clipper play-maker, came up with two goals, the first from Minton and the second unassisted. The period ended with the locals holding a 5-0 lead. In the second twenty minutes the Clippers added five more while the Flyers could blink the light on only one occasion. Sayliss drove in his second tally of the night and Lewis made goal number seven on a pass from Hopper. At 5.07 the Flyers broke the ice with St. Amant golfing the puck in the net on a close-in play. Nick Bangay arriving late in the game, teamed up with Clarke and Minton, the latter stick-handling in to pick up his second point of the game, Sayliss fired the hat trick at 10.25 and McCrone, not to be outdone by his team mate, bagged his third goal a minute later and ended the scoring in the period. The final frame was again an all Clipper affair but the locals were satisfied with two goals instead of the usual five scored in the previous periods. Clarke notched his second goal on a hard blueline drive that Gagnon never saw. Minton also tallied his second marker from Gibson and Rose and with that the locals called it a night as far as nay more scoring was concerned. With only a minute remaining in the game the Flyers added on more with Spiker beating Rhodes from Collings and St. Amant. The final score read Clippers 12 , Flyers 2.

Stouffville Clippers maintained their top position with Owen Sound in the local Senior hockey race, and pulled three points ahead of Markham by virtue of their win over the Millionaires on Saturday night. It looks from this point like a fight to the wire between Owen Sound and Stouffville to finish in top spot. First place team in the group will automatically go into the Canadian Allen Cup playdowns. The remaining three clubs will enter a playoff round of their own which would lead to a Senior ‘B’ championship.
In ten league games played the Clippers have compiled an astounding record, scoring 68 goals with only 24 goals against. CLASSY LOCAL MIDGET TEAM TAKES TO THE ICE FOR THE FIRST TIME
Stouffville has the best O.M.H.A. Midget entry this season that has been seen in these parts for some years. The boys made the trip to Newmarket for an exhibition do on Friday night and trounced their
Yonge St. hosts 7-3. The winners were sparked by Harold Hodgins, 13-year old, 165 pound
defenceman who scored four of his club’s goals. Young Hodgins is headed for a hockey future from all appearances, and will supply a tower of strength to this season’s midget Club. Don Hallman turned in a nice performance in the Stouffville net. Other local goal scorers were Joe Lewis, Don Forgie and Eric Davis. Bob Snowball is coaching the local entry and is more than pleased with his boys. He’s being aided by Gord Lewis of the Clippers with Don Lewis handling the managerial post. Stouffville Bantams dropped their exhibition tilt to Newmarket 13-3, but put up a goof show considering that Newmarket could not ice a full Bantam squad and had to resort to a number from their Midget club to fill out the roster. Stouffville had eighteen players on hand for this first game. OUTSKATE, OUTSHOOT AND OUTSCORE MARKHAM MILLIONAIRES TO WIN
Displaying terrific speed and power, the Stouffville Clippers handed the Markham Millionaires a definite 5-1 setback in their O.H.A. Senior game here on Saturday night. The locals skated the Markham boys to a standstill and gave goalie Stunden a busy night. Time and again the Millionaire plays were broken up before they could get organized by swift checking Clipper forwards. Such speedsters as Stark, Couch, Hopper and Minton zoomed into the Markham zone with perfect well planned passing plays that had their opponents dizzy at times. Even when the visitors did break free Hochberg, Bangay, Rose and the rest
held the fort in a determined effort to keep their winning record intact, as they start a New Year and the other half of the schedule. When shorthanded the Clippers put on a great penalty killing performance as Markham found it hard to penetrate their stonewall defence. In the first period after only minutes had elapsed Bangay received a cheap interference penalty but the locals held out i great style. After only five minutes had gone by Allen was also given a cheap but costly interference penalty which the locals cashed in on for their first goal. Sayliss who seems to be good for at least a goal a game, came up with the opening marker with assists going to McCrone and Stark. Three minutes later Robertson set Galand up for the Millionaires first and final goal of the night. He let the shot go from a difficult angle to slip in under the arm of goalie Rhodes, Sayliss and baker of Markham became involved in a Yukon Eric specialty along the boards and both were banished for five minutes. Robertson and Scott of the Millionaire were thumbed to the detention seat in turn and the Clippers took advantage of the manpower margin to notch goal number two which proved to be the winner as Markham never rallied to overtake their opposition. Stark was given credit for the tally with Bangay picking up an assist on the play. With only seconds remaining in the period, Couch romped in on Stunden to set Lewis up for the third Clipper goal. In typical Lewis fashion, Gord deflected the quick pass into the open corner off his outstretched stick. The period opened with the same speed and power that had featured the first twenty minutes. Hardly had the play gotten underway when Galand of Markham broke free to wheel in on the net only to have Rhodes pull off a sensational stop. The Lewis, Hopper, Couch line tore into the attack and had the Markhamites completely bottled up with their terrific power play. The Sayliss, Stark, McCrone line was then thrown into the battle and the visitors had to desperately ice the puck to relieve the pressure. It was Sayliss bagged his second goal with Stark and McCrone picking up points on the play. Stunden who was one of the busiest men on the ice pulled off a great save on Bangay as he carried the rubber to the Markham goalie’s doorstep. Although there were many close calls around both nets, neither team could score and the period ended with the Clippers holding an important 4-1 lead, The third and final period was a do-or-die affair for Markham as they trailed their rivals by three goals. The Millionaires put on their really best show of the night while Hochberg was serving a two minutes penalty and had the Clippers backed into their own end but for the great work of Rhodes in the locals net and persistent checking the visitors failed to get too many direct shots on the net. At 10.50 Gibson sewed the game up for the Clippers from Bangay and Machin and seemed to take whatever fire the Millionaire had right out of them as their usual third period comeback failed to materialized. It was a great win for the Clippers and gives them a three point lead over their Markham rivals and also keeps hem on top of the league with only one loss to date that being to Owen Sound in the first game of the regular schedule. CLIPPERS CLIP SHIPBUILDERS FOR EIGHTH STRAIGHT WIN
Playing a much more rugged brand of hockey than in the previous meeting. Collingwood put on one of their better displays of the season before their home fans only to be outscored by the smoother Clippers squad. Couch led the locals with two goals while McCrone and Minton each collected a goal and assist. The game was poorly handled. The boys threw their handled. The boys threw their weight around in
the first period and the Clippers seemed to be somewhat groggy under the heavy checks. However, as the game wore on the locals began to hit their stride and their smooth passing plays set them up in front
of the net time and again. The 5-2 win kept the Clippers atop the O.H.A. Big Seven Senior League and ran their unbeaten string to eight straight games. Collingwood’s hard hitting pucksters notched the first tally at the fourteen minute mark of the first period when Cockrane beat Rhodes on a scramble around the net. Slowly the turkey began to wear off and at 17.55 Sayliss tied the score after smooth working centreman, McCrone, set him up in front of the net. About half a minute before the end of the period Couch put his club in the lead to stay, after Minton had played the puck into the Collingwood end. Although the period, was very rough only two penalties were handed out — one to each team. In the second twenty minutes, the Clippers held a decided edge, but were successful in scoring one goal — that by Minton from Bangay at 16.25. The play continues to be rough as boarding and high sticking went unchecked. Only one penalty was handed out that to Patterson of the Shipbuilders but no damage was done while he was sitting out his time.
The final frame was a repeat performance of the two previous two as Coach Eddie Bush kept his players on the move as he boomed his commands on loud tones from the box. Early in the period, Herbie Rose
had the misfortune of being hit on the forehead by a glancing puck and had to go off for repairs. Five stitches were used to close the cut. At the six minute mark, Couch flew in alone on Westbrook to beat the goalie cleanly. Lewis picked up an assist on the play. With Patterson of the Shipbuilders serving his two minutes in the penalty box, Bangay set McCrone in position for the Clippers fifth and final goal. With a little more than five minutes remaining in the game, Gowing fired home the Shipbuilders second tally and ended the scoring for the night. The officials started to clamp down on the rough tactics on the final twenty minutes when six penalties were handed out. The Clipper defence showed a decided improvement over some of the former games as Rose, Clarke , Machin and Hochberg all turned in standout performances. Stark was missing from the lineup with an injured knee so Bangay was moved forward to fill the vacancy there.

COACH EDDIE BUSH BANISHED FROM GAME AS COLLINGWOOD SMEARED BY LOCALS 9-0
Big Eddie Bush, coach go Collingwood Shipbuilders was hoisted from the senior hockey game here on Tuesday night by the referee, as his team was given a 9-0 pasting by the Clipper speed merchants. Bush, who weighs over 225 pounds objected strenuously to a penalty he received after hitting George Sayliss a terrific check along the boards. The big fellow put on a great display of temper and Constables Ira Rusnell and Clarence Wideman were called in to give him escort to the dressing room. Prior to this incident which occurred in the last period, Gowing of the Shipbuilders was also hoisted from the game for using unsavory language on Referee Shropshire. Jack Rhodes, stalky Clipper netminder, turned in his fourth perfect night as he held Collingwood Shipbuilders off the score sheet in their O.H.A. Senior contest. For three straight games and a portion of another Rhodes has held the opposition scoreless making a total of over 200 minutes of errorless goaltending which is no small feat in a league where goals are a dime a dozen. A good deal of the credit must go to them itself who stand in front of the net. With a stonewall defence and back-checking forwards the attacking pucksters find the going very difficult even before they reach the net and if any are lucky enough to slip through there is always the boy with the brushcut standing between the pipes to form a formidable blockade. Such was the case on Tuesday night as the locals skated rings around the visitors who tried in vain to crack through the Clipper defence. The much talked about Eddie Bush was on hand before the home fans for the first time this season and although he put on a weak show both defensively and offensively he added a lot of colour to the game with his constant arguing over every play. When at last he was thrown out of the game by Referee Shropshire the visitors seem to lose what spark they had and never threatened to get into the scoring. It was a good exhibition of hockey even though the score was somewhat one-sided with everything being thrown into the contest from perfect three-way passing plays to stick wielding displays in the penalty box.
It took the Clippers only two minutes to find the range as Lewis batted in a pass from Couch and Hochberg. less than a minute later Bangay received a rude jolt from Bush as he attempted to cross the
blueline. Not to be denied the rugged forward got to his feet to storm in on the Collingwood goal and notch the Clippers second tally on passes from Minton and Hochberg. With Patterson of the Shipbuilders serving a penalty Bangay and Gibson teamed up and laid a perfect pass over to Minton who was left uncovered in front of the net. Polly made no mistake and backhanded one into the open corner. At 13.52 Minton swept in alone to draw the one defenceman aside and slipped pass to the uncovered Bangay for the fourth local marker. With about four minutes gone in the second period the Clippers staged a real power play. Bush was checked in front of his own net as he attempted to carry the puck out. Couch who retrieved the rubber set Lewis up for his second goal of the night. Midway through the period McCrone and Gibson raced in together for a well planned goal and put the locals in a six goal lead. The nicest lone tally of the game was forged by Hochberg who skated through the entire Collingwood team to sink the puck in the bottom corner of the net on a low hard drive. McCrone was given credit foe an assist on the play as he started the husky defenceman rolling. In the third and final frame the Clipper struck hard and fast with Hopper tipping the puck into the net from Lewis. It was after that gaol that the visitors became somewhat peeved. the Clippers final tally came at 13.00 as Gibson coasted in alone and sank the puck with a hard well-aimed shot. Hochberg played an outstanding game for the locals as well as Gibson who seemed to be throwing his weight around more than usual. Minton was back in the lineup after receiving a bad cut in a previous game. Stark was not on hand and Bradbury will not be ready for a couple of weeks yet.
Stouffville Clippers take to the ice for three games this week. Newmarket is here on Tuesday and the league leaders have on game away, that at Newmarket this Thursday night. This will be the first meeting with the Yonge St. redshirts.
Stouffville midgets dropped a close 3-2 decision to Ajax in their first meeting in the local arena on Friday night. Madill and Barkey were the goal-getters for the home-towners with Billy Tait, and Winsley notching three for the visitors.
An ice planer is being brought into the local arena this week, and the entire ice surface will be clear with the exception of about a half inch over the pipes. the job will require about half a day, and will require the removal of nearly fifty tones of ice. Starting in September as was the case this year, the ice is built up to a considerable thickness before spring and requires much more electric power to keep a good surface, than if it is planed down to a thin layer.
Nearly 1900 fans in the arena a week ago and scarcely 300 last Saturday leaves local hockey executives wondering . Stouffville has never come up with a better hockey club than the currant outfit, but the crying need is apparently opposition. While fans want a winning club, they also like to see them hustle to stay on top. Others will tell us that more difficult times are ahead — money is harder to get. People are scurrying to get their cash into something solid and they will no longer respond to the inflationary trends that have worked their way into major sports. Reports have it that both baseball and hockey salaries will come under the hatchet in ’51. However, local executives are chagrined because the lack of the lack of attendance. How fickle can the public get? Last year it was nip and tuck as to whether or not the local squad would come up with a win, the turnouts were good. This year when the public is satisfied they can’t lose, they fail to show up. A team such as that representing Stouffville this winter can’t operate on peanuts, and if the fans fail to come through in greater numbers the heretofore, it may spell finis to any future attempts at such a high calibre hockey team. The display put on here each Saturday night is every bit as good as one will see at Maple Leaf Gardens for three times the money, and the contests are much closer than the scores indicate.
Newmarket Spitfires will invade the Stouffville Arena on Saturday night. The Clippers will be out to avenge that humiliating defeat they suffered before before the home fans here last winter in an exhibition game at the hands of the Newmarketers. The Spitfires have on their roster Ken Broughton, ex-Orillia defenceman who can always be counted on to make things as lively as possible in or out of the corners. TOWN MIDGETS SHUT OUT PORT 5-0
Bob Snowball’s hustling Midget squad blanked the Scugog boys 5-0 in a scheduled O.M.H.A. fixture at port Perry on Monday night. Don Hallman was top man for Stouffville will a number of brilliant stops between the pipes. the scoring was spread throughout the team, with Beverley, B. Lewis the marksmen. The home club were short their star defenceman Hodgson who is on the sidelines with an injury. Port Perry will be the visiting team in Stouffville next Wednesday night for the early 7 o’clock hockey fixture. CLIPPERS BLANK MIDLAND 6-0
(By Jim Thomas)
Displaying too much power and weight the Clippers handed Midland Flyers a 6-0 setback in Midland on Thursday night. It gave goalie Rhodes his second shutout of the season, his first coming a few weeks back when the locals handed Alliston a 10-0 defeat. Captain Nick Bangay led his trick and picking up three assists besides. Sayliss counted one goal and assist while Gibson blinked the light on two occasions. the Flyers seemed to show better form than on their previous meetings and gave Rhodes some anxious moments. The stalky netminder showed up well and earned his shut out victory. On the first goal Bangay beat Gagnon cleanly after being set up by Sayliss and Stark. Nick’s second goal come the ice and flipped the rubber to McCrone. The smooth centreman laid over a perfect pass to Bangay who made no mistake with hat shot. Bangay completed his hat trick a few minutes later with Gibson and Stark picking up points on the play. Sayliss then came up for his usual goal a game and put the Clippers in the lead 4-0. Gibson who has had a lot of tough luck around the net all season trained his sights on the enemy net and let go with two shots which fooled Gagnon completely. Minton and Bangay drew assists on both goals . Hopper and Rose were both sidelined with injuries but the latter returned after being stitched up. Hopper had his shoulder hurt and will miss a few games. CLIPPERS WHITEWASH MIDLAND IN TWO STRAIGHT GAMES 6-0 AND 11-0
The Clippers made a clean sweep of their two game home and home series with the Midland Flyers by running a total of seventeen goals behind goalie Gagnon while not a single tally was notched against the locals. Rhodes didn’t have to much to do but came to the rescue whenever the opposing forwards managed to slip through the defence. By their win the Clippers still continue to set the pace atop the O.H.A. Big Seven Senior League.
The first period started very slowly as the bush league style of the Flyers seemed to keep the Clippers disorganized. The locals flew into thee Midland zone time and time again but failed to take many shots on net. near the half-way mark in the period Bangay and Stark combined to set McCrone up for the Clippers first and only goal of the period. As usually happens when playing a second rate team such as the Flyers proved to be, the winning and progressive team is bound to rue inn to injuries and that is what happened. Polly Minton who has already received his share of hard luck was hit b a high stick cutting him
badly over the nose and above the eye. He left the ice bleeding badly and was taken at once to the doctor where numerous stitches were required to close the wound. Only minutes later Gibson received a bad crack in the mouth cutting it enough to also require doctor’s attention. He returned to the game midway through the second period and seemed stronger than ever, notching two goals and assisting ohm another. With Hopper out with a shoulder injury and Bradbury still missing, Coach Bangay had to patch up a riddled lineup to the best of his ability.
In the second period the Clippers seemed to tire of fooling around and really settled down to scoring goals. At 3.46 Hochberg skated through the entire Midland team for a perfect goal unassisted. Two minutes later Lewis and Couch combined for the third tally of the game and Stark left the opposition dizzy as he swept in on a pass from McCrone to pick the corner on a nice drive. Midway through the period Bangay who has become goal hungry of late beat Gagnon with a hard drive after Machin had carried the puck the entire length of the ice. With only minutes remaining in the period Gibson returned to the ice and fired the first of his two goals with Clarke and Lewis picking up assists on the play. Couch ran the total up to seven and ended the scoring for the period. At 7.40 of the final frame Gibson wound up for goal number two and led the attack on the next play which Lewis completed for his second goal of the night. Although leading by nine goals the locals never let up for a minute as the two smooth working forwards Stark and McCrone teamed up for the final goals. McCrone notched the first one while Stark came through for the eleventh and final tally to end the contest.
Out of four games played between Midland and the Clippers the locals have pounded a total of 36 goals behind Gagnon in the Flyers net while opposing forwards have dented Rhodes armour only three times. The goal scoring spree of Nick Bangay has placed the husky forward in second place race with 22 points. McCrone is currently heading the parade with 24 points.

CLIPPERS TO MUCH FOR OSHAWA ALL-STARS
Stouffville Clippers downed Oshawa Mercantile All-Stars 10-3 in an exhibition hockey game in Port perry on Tuesday night. After a scoreless first frame, Clippers opened up a cris-crossing passing display, potting five goals in short order. Waddell in the Oshawa net turned in a great game for the motor city lads despite the ten pucks that got past him. Bill Bradbury was back in the Stouffville lineup for the first time in six weeks. He was forced to the sidelines with a shoulder injury.

Saturday night’s hockey game in Owen Sound was broadcast play by play over Station CFOS by Bill Daine, Sun -Times sports editor. Sitting in the gondola with the georgian bay “Foster Hewitt,” we can vouch for the accuracy and pleasing version of the game.
Despite all this talk about poor crowds at the local Senior hockey games, it may be that those in charge expected just a little too much. The figures for the season to date show that the average is good — almost 800 fans have attended every league game the Clippers have played. that’s an attendance average which is certainly not to be sneezed at. Moreover it should be boosted considerably higher if the Clippers can get out of the group and head down one of the two playoff trails.
Local hockey fans who feel slightly let down over the loss by the Clippers to the Owen Sound Mercurys Saturday night, should not be too down-hearted, but give credit here credit is due, and that’s to the
high-class Georgian Bay outfit, who boasted ten of last Senior ‘A’ squad, and quite a number have seen service with American professional clubs and the N.H.L. Just whether or not the Mercurys will be able to
repeat their win when they visit Stouffville on Feb. 16th is a question. Coach Bob Bangay will be taking great pains to profit by the mistakes of Saturday night, and could be the local squad will even the series. While not underestimating the Mercurys, the Clippers were a trifle on the over-confident side when they skated out in Owen Sound, and this too, was understandable after a seventeen game winning streak. CLIPPERS RALLY TO HAND ALLISTON 5-1 DEFEAT
(By Jim Thomas)
After taking a 1-0 lead in the first period the much improved Alliston squad tied the count after only one minute had gone by in the second period. the score remained deadlocked until midway through the final frame when the locals came to life and fired four goals past Leonard in the Alliston cage to take the game 5-1. it was the Clippers’ seventeenth straight game without a defeat. Before only a handful of spectators the Clippers took the lead at 14.10 of the first period as Stark blinked the light from Machin and McCrone. Both teams battled hard throughout the remainder of the twenty minutes but neither team was able to find the target. Alliston started the second period very fast and before two minutes had elapsed Findlayson fired a hard drive in the general direction of the Clipper net. Rhodes pulled off a great stop on the shot but Munro came zooming in from the wing and slammed the rebound into the cage before the Clippers had a chance to clear. Play up and down the ice was very fast and goalies on both teams had to come up with stops on almost every rush. In the second period alone Leonard in the Alliston cage was called upon to make 17 saves while Rhodes held the fort on 12 occasions.
After twelve minutes had passed in the final frame the Clippers decided it was high time to break the deadlock. Sayliss broke the tie from Stark and McCrone and seven seconds later Stark broke through to notch the Clippers third goal with assists going once again to his linesmen McCrone and Sayliss. At 14.16 Hochberg, who has been quite a regular scorer for the locals lately, tallied from Hopper and less
than half a minute later Herbie Rise bagged the final goal of the game with assists going to Lewis and Couch. The game was very late in getting under way as Alliston team was delayed when the bus on which they were riding suffered a flat tire. The game which was scheduled for 8.30 didn’t actually get under way until 9.30. Les Clarke didn’t dress for the game due to an infected foot. He is expected to be on skates again shortly however. CLIPPERS LONG WINNING STREAK SNAPPED BY MERCURY POWER, 10-6
A six goal power-house offensive in the second period by the Owen Sound Mercurys gave them a 10-6 win over Clippers in a Big Seven Senior hockey clash on Saturday night in Owen Sound. This was the big game of the schedule, both teams having gone this far with only a single loss although the Clippers were down one point by virtue of their tie with Newmarket. Stouffville showed s definite edge only in the first period when they shot into a 3-1 lead, and ended the first frame 3-2. Skating as if they thought they had the game in the bag, they were pounced on by Owen Sound in the mid-season for three goals in three minutes.
The Mercurys are deadly around the net, and caught the local defence flat-footed time and again, as they coasted in on breakaways with only one man back. Herb Rose opened the scoring in the game with a screened shot from the blueline. Bob Markle and Fred Smith were left loose in front of Rhodes to bang home the Mercurys first counter. Stouffville kept the Sounders well in their own end for the balance of the period, and Gibson was given a busy time in the net. Bob Hopper picked the corner on Couch’s pass for goal number two and Gibson combined with Minton to make it 3-1 for the visitors. Hopper went to the penalty bench for foolishly cross-checking McReavy when the owen Sound player didn’t even have the puck and while he was off, big Bill Allum and Gillespie broke in on the unprotected Rhodes to make it 3-2 at 19.00, and end the scoring for the period Hochberg was penalized just as the second period got underway for holding, and while he was off Ingoldsby scored from Burlington to tie the count 3-all. The Mercurys displayed a great superiority in power in the next fifteen minutes against a rather disorganized Clipper Club. White, Bukacheski and Kazarian all scored on order to make it 6-3 for Owen Sound. Play roughed up for a time. Bukacheski went off for tripping and Stark and Kazarian for high-sticking and Gibson and Alum for roughing. At 11.20 of the period, Stark got his stick on a pass from Herb Rose to rifle a slider past Gillson to make it 6-4. But the rout was on again, and Ingoldsby and Burlington combined to add another pair of goals as the period concluded 8-4. Surprising as it seemed, it was the Clippers who showed definite signs of tiring in the last period, and gave little indication of a come-back drive as the third period got underway. McReavy added the Sounders ninth goal, and then at 11.26, McCrone slapped a pass out ion the Mercury net to make it 9-5. The sudden success seemed to bring the Clippers back to life again and they swarmed to the attack. At 13.29, Herb Rose got his second goal of the night with Hopper on the assist. McReavy broke clear of Stouffville ganging attack at 15.20 to make it 10-6 and wind up the scoring.
While Rhodes let ten pucks get by him, the most this winter, he was beaten by a couple of lucky ones, one which went clear over his head and down into the twine after he had come well out of his net and made the initial save. His rearguard protection was definitely weak, and the Mercurys continually had one man in the clear. Instead of having one “sleeper” coasting around in the centre ice zone waiting for a
break, the Mercurys used two a great deal, and had Stouffville’s lone safety defenceman flat-footed when they came in. The largest crowd of the season, about fifteen hundred, watched the game. About a hundred fans from Stouffville made the long trek north and gave good vocal support to the local favourites at every opportunity. Both teams missed royal chances to score time and again, but as it was, the score was much larger than the experts expected between the two clubs. Providing neither team drop anymore games the win gives Owen Sound a three point edge over the Clippers and a pretty sure bet for first
place. However, the northerners could slip this Saturday night and the Sounders are in Unionville this Wednesday. They beat the Millionaires by very scores in their first two meetings, and are definitely not that much better than the Greenshirts. Stouffville heads north again this Saturday night for Collingwood, and will have a their hands full with a much improved Shipbuilders squad. CLIPPERS EKE OUT WIN AT NEWMARKET
(
In a rugged hard-hitting battle , Clippers gained a 5-3 win over Newmarket on Monday night before a good turnout of cheering fans. The Clippers seemed to regain some of the fight they have shown in their
appearances in the first half of Th. schedule. Both teams skated hard. Sheuchuk was a stone-wall on the Newmarket defence and blocked shot after shot. Labine and Todd were also good for the losers. For the Clippers, herb Rose turned in a goos effort, although he was chalked up with a couple of costly errors when he lost possession of the puck in his own end. He notched one goal and assisted on another. Gord Lewis, although he failed to get into the score column, was the team’s work-horse and dumped a heap of passes to his team-mates most of which they failed to capitalize on. More headwork and less footwork would have paid off oft v in many instances. Newmarket opened the scoring in the game as Todd fired the puck past Rhodes when the Clippers failed to clear out of their own end. Both teams kept up a terrific pace but the locals couldn’t seem to find a hole in goalkeeper Tunney. Couch had a great chance to tie the count only to be outguessed at the goalmouth. At 17.25 McCrone slipped the rubber into the cage after picking up the rebound from a blueline shot by Rose. Sheuchuk had the best Spitfire chance to put his team back in the lead again before the end of the period when checking Stark as he tried to stickhandle out of his own zone but Rhodes came out to the rescue. After nine minutes had gone by in the second frame the Lewis, Hopper, Couch line performed the smoothest play of the night as Couch
stickhandled to centre, passed to lewis as he crossed the blueline and he relayed to Hopper who was flying in from the wing. He lifted the puck into the top corner to give the Clipper the lead. At 15.55
Bangay, standing on the blueline, let go with a bullet shot on which Tunney never moved as his view was blocked on the day. With a matter of minutes remaining in the period and Sheuchuk serving a penalty, Labine of the Spitfires sailed in alone to shove the puck under Rhodes as he fell to the ice on the shot. The period ended with Clippers leading 3-2. Only a little more than a minute had passed in the final twenty minutes when McCrone wheeled through the entire Newmarket team around the net and passed out to Rose waiting outside. Herbie unwound with a low shot that caught the bottom corner to give the Clippers a two goal lead. Labine tallied his second goal of the night as he went in alone on Rhodes on a pass from Sheuchuk. Clarke ended the scoring with a long shot that glanced off Sheuchuk’s stick into the net. Lewis picked up his third point of the night as he passed the puck to Clarke for the shot. Play because very rough as one player after another hit the ice from stiff body checks. Stark was the first to receive a jolting check and Broughton was rolled in turn by Hochberg as the two heavy weights crashed at centre ice. Stark, who seemed to be a marked man for some reason, was lashed at by an over anxious fan and the shifty winger retaliated quickly to bring the police on the run. The fan was removed from the scene of action in a hurry.

PLAYOFF FLASH !!
Stouffville and Owen Sound will open the Senior Hockey playoffs next week according to word received from Convener Rutherford this Wednesday noon. The series will be a four-out-of- seven affair beginning in Owen Sound possibly Tuesday. The winner will advance into the Allan Cup playdowns, and the loser will meet the winner between a Markham-Alliston series for the right to go in O.H.A. Senior ‘B’ playoffs According to an O.H.A. spokesperson, Markham turned down this playoff arrangement last week and threatened to pull out if the matter was forced to a showdown. However, it’s expected that they will concede now that the league’s top brass has set down the rules.
The Clippers were without the star Nick Bangay and speedster Polly Minton when they dropped that overtime decision to Collingwood on Saturday night, but both players will be ready for action on Friday.
Polly Minton of the Clippers is down with tonsillitis and is not expected to make the lineup for Friday night.
Stouffville Juveniles were dumped out of playoff contention last week, when they lost a sudden death period with Richmond Hill. The Stouffville boys trimmed the Hill club 6-2 in their last scheduled game to tie the pair for the last playoff berth. It was mutually agreed to continue for another period to decide who should have chosen position, and the locals succumbed 2-0.
The local senior hockey playoff picture is still obscure. A special meeting of the heads of the four senior clubs at Unionville last week failed to solve anything. The original playoff setup was all teams participating, first playing fourth and second with third. However, Alliston threw a monkey wrench into the works when they announced that they would default rather than mark the trip to Owen Sound in the playoffs. This left the Sounders with only a possible single-round playoff. The Owen Sound Club in turn came up with a better idea which all teams agreed to with the exception of Markham, and why, we’ll never know. The Owen Sound setup called for the first and second-place clubs to meet in the in the first round, the winner to advance into the Allan Cup series, and the loser to meet the winner of the third and fourth-place teams for the right to continue in Senior ‘B’ playoffs. The idea was a good one as it practically assured each team of two rounds with the exception of Alliston, but nevertheless it was satisfactory to them since they wouldn’t have to make the long haul north. Stouffville was sure of two rounds, and likewise Markham. Markham suggested that the loser of the Stouffville-Owen Sound first round be out of the running, which as anyone can see is preposterous, since the idea of Stouffville who has won seventeen games not being able to meet such a team as Markham who have won less than a dozen is
out of the question. Markham of course was angling for an easy way into the playoffs by by-passing Stouffville, a nice trick if they could work it. The matter is to be carried to the O.H.A. this week for direction. Stouffville is agreeable to either the new plan or the original plan. CLIPPERS OUT TO SQUARE ROUND WITH SOUNDERS
Friday nights “big game” here is expected to draw a capacity crowd, and will present the two top clubs in the Senior Seven in a playoff preview. While reserved seats are a sell-out, there are eight hundred rush seats and standing accommodation tickets to go on sale at 7 o’clock the night of the game. Owen Sound will be at full strength and present a power-packed line-up of hockey brains against the speedy and younger Clipper Club. While the visitors kid line of Bob Markle, Johnny MacDonald and Andy Grant
are not to be sneezed at, the Sounders depend greatly for their scoring on some of their veterans. Harry Kazarian Is a veteran defenceman, formerly with San Francisco and Atlantic City pro clubs. He teams up on defence with big Bill lAlum on release from the Cleveland Barons. Jack Ingoldsby has been on of Th. biggest right wingers in Senior ‘A’ hockey for several years. Doug Gillespie who coached the Owen Sound lacrosse team to the Mann Cup in 1950, gained much of his hockey experience with Staffords. Buck Forslund who bears a strong resemblance to Gaye Stewart of the Detroit red Wings came to Owen Sound from the Port Arthur Bruins after they won the Memorial Cup in 1948. Bob Gillson, netminder guarded the net for Toronto Staffords before going to Owen Sound’s Senior ‘A’ team. Biggest threat is Tommy Burlington who is 31 years old, and played with Atlantic City, Cleveland Barons and Providence. Pat McReavy who teams up with Burlington on many of his scoring sortees comes from the Boston bruins, and a stretch with Hershey Bears and St. Louis Flyers. He’s 32. SHIPBUILDERS SINK CLIPPERS IN OVERTIME SESSION 5-4
A goal by Green of the Shipbuilders after seven and forty seconds of overtime spelled defeat for the local clippers in their O.H.A. Senior contest played in Collingwood on Saturday night. The Northern squad was full value for their win as they went all out during the full sixty minutes and with the exception of the first period outshot the locals badly. The Clippers were without their captain, Nick Bangay, and he was missed plenty as the defence were very slack at times on clearing out of their own end. Polly Minton didn’t dress as he hans’t yet recovered from a severe attack of the flu. Rhodes turned in one of the best games he has played to date pulling off some fifty-two stops many of them at point blank range. Westbrook in the visitors cage made some spectacular saves on shots that were labelled sure goals.
Collingwood opened the scoring in the first period as Butters let go with a backhand shot that caught the corner. Hochberg had the speedy winger partially blocked on the play but he had enough clearance to get his shot away. Thirty seconds later Kirby of the Shipbuilders brought the twelve hundred fans to their feet as he slipped the rubber past Rhodes from the face off to put his team two up. At 7.40 Stark carried the puck the full length of the ice and passed to Sayliss standing in front of the net. George slapped his shot in before Westbrook had time to get set. Three minutes later Gibson tied the count as he jumped into the air to knock down Bradbury’s pass and fire the puck into the corner. Play continued very fast with the locals holding an edge when Lewis tallied on a wild scramble around the net. Hopper picked up an assist on the goal. The period was cleanly played with only two penalties being handed out, one to each team. The Clippers outshot their rivals 14-8 on the period play. The second frame was a scoreless affair although both teams had great chances. Rhodes came up with a good display of netminding as he handled a total sixteen shots compared with none for the opposing goalie. hardly had the period got underway when Rose received a tripping penalty. The locals held out well and while Herb was sitting
out his two minutes Stark nearly increased the Clipper lead but Westbrook came to the rescue and saved on the flashy speedster. Bradbury who seems to be improving every time he is out, looked about the best up front for the locals and nearly blinked the light as he shot again. Eddie Bush turned in his usual rugged hard hitting game and was a stonewall on defence as onrushing forwards swarmed in on
him. The big ex-pro got away more blueline shots than he had in any previous contest and on one occasion had a direct drive at the net from about ten feet out but Rhodes moved out to kick the rubber aside in great style. Lewis received a high sticking penalty and after serving the time stepped on the ice with Gibson and McCrone to back the Collingwood squad into their own end for the best prolonged attack the locals produced all night. Shot after shot was blazed at the Shipbuilders net but their shooting was a little erratic with only a few shots on the goal. The period ended with the Clippers still leading 3-2.
At 5-10 of the third period Couch pulled out of his scoring slump as he drove a hard shot through the goalie’s pads on a pass from Bradbury to give the Clippers a two goal lead. Midway through the final twenty minutes of regular time the Shipbuilders caught fire and in less than ten seconds the game was all tied up again. The first of the goals burst was argued by the Clippers claiming it had been kicked in but to no avail. A matter of seconds later Dance of Collingwood tied the score and a n we game was started all over again. Herb Rose had a great chance to break the deadlock but Westbrooke made his best stop of the night as he grabbed the rubber neatly out of the air. Just a short time before the bell Lewis was body-checked hard and had to retire for the rest of the game with a pulled muscle in his chest. In the last seconds of regular play Couch sailed right in but found a stonewall of pads, skates, and sticks in front of him and failed to score. Rhodes continued his sensational play holding out on nineteen occasions while Westbrook had only seven stops. At 7.40 of the overtime session green sank the winner from Gowing while Rhodes was laying on his back. Neither team could score after that although the play continued at a fast pace to the final whistle. the final score read Collingwood 5, Stouffville 4. The win stepped Collingwood team into third place and moved Markham down to fourth spot.

Referee Harry Morrison handed out a penalty for one of those new rules in the game here Friday night. An Owen Sound player was penalized for “Clipping” George Stark. Rule 49 states that a minor penalty shall be imposed on any player who deliberately “Clips” an opponent. (Clipping shall be any action used to prevent players from retaining possession of the puck by falling and sliding along the ice directly in the path of an opponent.
The Lions Club is understood to be going to entertain the Stouffville Ball Club in March. The local club won the Tri-County League championship last summer, and have a great idea about installing floodlights in the park. Sunderland is understood to be going ahead with the installation of floodlights there in the spring. Such a move here would certainly boost baseball attendance, and be a great asset in the staging of various events in the park. Cost is reported to run in the neighborhood of $5000. The matter will likely get an airing when the boys meet with the Lions members. CLIPPERS OVERPOWERED BY SPEEDY MERCURY SQUAD
Displaying terrific speed and smooth three way passing plays the Owen Sound Mercurys skated to a 10-4 victory over the Clippers on Friday night. It wasn’t Stouffville’s night right from the start as many players didn’t arrive in time to get warmed up and went into the game cold. Goalie Rhodes also got off to a bad start as he was only given a few shots in their pre-game practice and his puck stopping eye wasn’t as keen as it might have been. the Sounders battled hard right from the start and before the first period had ended they had rattled four tallies behind Rhodes without a reply from the locals. The league leaders have a smooth clicking crew and anyone might have doubted that fact was thoroughly convinced by their showing on Friday night. The entire team work together as a unit and as the forwards move up the ice the two defenceman follow in on the play in split second timing to give the opposing team a tough time inside the blueline. The forwards have an unique way of crossing the blueline three abreast and as they move in on the net one man fades back in order to have a perfect blank drive at the goal. The local defence seemed more steady than on a few previous showings but some of the forwards just aren’t skating. In the first period they roamed over the ice like a bunch of lost sheep not sticking to one man in particular but just trying to catch up the puck with the result that one or more men were being uncovered all the time. The locals instead of skating toward their respective men and taking them completely our of the play seemed to go in their direction, wave their sticks at them as they swerved to miss a check and that was all there was to it. In the second frame the Clippers seemed to show more life but still couldn’t cope with the skill of the visitors. The third and final period was by far the best twenty minutes turned in by the locals as they outshot their rivals fifteen to six but the Mercurys matched them goal for goal and the score read 10-4 at the final whistle. In the scoring department the the visitors had it all their own way in the first session as they pumped in four tallies and held the Clippers off the score sheet. Jack Ingoldsby who was the big gun for the visitors all night with three goals and one assist, notched the first
two markers with Burlington and Forslund picking up assists on both goals. the second tally was a perfect passing pay that was marked for a goal all the way. At 13.18 the Mercurys went three up with McReavy doing the honours on a pass from Gillespie. A minute later the visitors added one more this time Gillespie blinking the light on passes from McReavy and Bukacheski. The period ended with the
Mercurys holding a foul goal lead. Owen Sound opened the scoring in the second frame as Ingoldsby beat Rhodes with a low shot from Forslund. This tally marked number three for the speedy forward. Three minutes later McReavy notched his second goal from Gillespie and now the visitors led 6-0. At 4.54 Sayliss bounced the puck off the goalie into the net for the Clippers’ first goal. The locals had numerous chances their biggest coming right after their first goal when Bradbury sailed in alone on Gillson only to miss the net on a drive to the corner. On the return rush with Owen Sound players all around the Clipper net Rhodes was pulled completely out of the goal and with the net wide open it looked as though the visitors were about to add to their margin but Rose made a dive across the goalmouth to save the day on that occasion. At 10.28 Burlington swept in alone to score and at the end of the twenty
minutes the score read Owen Sound 7, Stouffville 1. Going in to the third period Coach Bangay juggled his lines around in a desperate attempt to hit on a winning combination. Lewis was switched from his regular line to centre Stark and Gibson. McCrone was moved between Bangay and Hopper, and Bradbury formed the pivot between Couch and Sayliss. The plan seemed to work to a certain extent as Stark tallied after only one minute of play from Gibson and Lewis but a minute later and with the Clippers a man short Burlington raced in to score his second goal from In godlessly. Only twenty seconds after that tally Bangay slapped the rubber past Gillson with McCrone picking up an assist on the play to make the score 8-3. At 11.20 Andy grant, well known around these parts, fought hard for the puck and managed to get it out to Markle standing in front of the net. The right winger let go his shot and caught the corner for the ninth Mercury goal. Midway through the period Stark pulled off the nicest goal of the night as he sailed in on Gillson, shifted to one side and lifted a backhand shot into the top of the net. Only one more goal was scored after that when Bukacheski, the team’s top goal scorer, notched his only tally of the game from Gillespie and McReavy to end the scoring. It may be hard to believe but according to the shots on goal the Clippers outshot their rivals 30-19. In the last period alone the locals bounced the rubber off Gillson fifteen times while Rhodes was called to the rescue only six occasions. These two teams go at it again on Friday night and now the Clippers see what a tough aggregation they must face they will probably put up a stiffer battle. MIDGETS ADVANCE TO NEXT GROUP
Displaying too much weight and power the local Midgets finished off their goals to count series with a 12-4 drubbing her on Saturday night. The locals carried two goals into the game to take the round 14-4. The Ajax crew couldn’t match the speed and skill of the homesters. Although the series was lost before the end of the first period the visitors never stopped trying and gave Goalie Hallman many anxious moments. D. Lewis tallied the first local tally on a long shot that went into the net off the goalie’s skate. Beverley put his team two up on a close in drive from Forgie. Eric Davis made it three on another long shot and Beverley bagged his second marker with assists going to D. Lewis and I Lewis. Don Forgie and I. Lewis combined to score goal number five and Davis fired the final local tally of the period as he broke in alone to outguess Short in the Ajax cage. Ajax notched their single tally of the period with only two minutes to play with Grundey doing the honours from Trail. With Forgie of the locals serving a penalty, Lehman of the visitors blinked the light for the second marker but Davis wiped that goal off with a nice shot as he went in unopposed on the Ajax net. Midway through the period Simpson banged in a hard shot from Davis and Barkey had his drive roll over the goal crease for the last goal of the period. Remake of Ajax beat Hallman with a long blueline shot after nine minutes of the final twenty minutes had passed but once again the locals came back strong with Forgie picking the open corner with a nice shot. I. Lewis lengthened the local lead from Beverley and Forgie made it an even dozen with about two minutes to go. At 18.40 Remake of the visitors notched the final tally of the contest unassisted and the score read Stouffville 12, Ajax 4. It would be hard to pick a star on the local squad as they all turned in a good game. Both Lewis boys — Don and Ian — looked good while Davis, Beverley, and Forgie showed up well. Hallman turned in a steady game except for four tallies that evaded him looked good on many close in shots he did have to stop. For the Ajax crew one player stood out above the rest in the person of Art Remake who played almost the entire sixty minutes. he turned in a great game both on defence and forward firing two of the visitors four markers after com pelting many perfect stick-handling plays. The locals now move on to meet Bolton.

CLIPPERS GIVE THRILLING DISPLAY TO BEAT MERCS 5-3
Keeping alive their chances in the O.H.A. Senior ‘A’ playoff series with Owen Sound, the Stouffville Clippers put on a thrilling display of checking, passing and netminding, on Tuesday night, to trim the Mercurys 5-3. The Sounders were without their great centre star, Tommy Burlington, but the flu cut an even larger hole in the Clipper ranks, taking out Hochberg, Stark and Lewis. With the score tied 2-all as the third period got underway, Owen Sound threw everything but the kitchen sink into the Stouffville end. The Clippers countered stubbornly but were finally nicked at 7.30, when Forslund slipped a neat pass out to Bun White who was parked practically on Rhodes shoestrings. The Clippers got a break at 10.33 when Kazarian and goalie fumbled Hopper’s shot clearing it into the net. With the count knotted, Clippers rolled into the Owen Sound end and had the fans on the edge of their seats as they buzzed Gillson from every angle. McCrone let go with a fast shot on the ice at 17.34 to give the locals the lead. Only eight seconds later George Sayliss combined with McCrone and Gibson to put the game in the bag, making it 5-3. Big improvement in the Clippers style and one which spelled downfall for the Mercurys, was the checking. The visitors were tied up before they got rolling, and every man was watched like a hawk by his Clipper
opponent. Jack Rhodes, just back from his bout with the flu, was sensational while Gillson was equally good for the Sounders. The visitors definitely showed the loss of their great centre star, Burlington, but
nevertheless had Stouffville continued to turn in a mediocre brand of hockey they have been doing for the last dozen games, Owen Sound would have laced them again by possibly ten goals. However, the predicted shakeup in the Clippers came on Tuesday night and the “heavy executive hand” produced the desired results. The fifth game of the series will be played in Owen Sound this Friday night and the sixth game if necessary back in Stouffville on Saturday night.
At the time of writing the latest report from the Clipper injury list looked this way — Minton and Rhodes are expected back for Tuesday night’s game. Stark was still counted out, and Gord Lewis was ill with the flu on Monday.

SHORTHANDED CLIPPERS OUTPLAY MERCURYS BUT LOSE 7-3
The Clippers once again displaying their old form put up a stubborn battle against their playoff rivals Owen Sound but Gillson in the Mercury cage proved a stumbling block in the way of the flying Clipper
marksmen as he pulled off some thirty stops while Warriner in the locals cage came to the rescue of twenty occasions. The Clippers were playing without the services of three forwards and their regular
goaltender. Sayliss, Stark and Minton and Rhodes have been bitten by the flu bug and were unable to dress. With only two lines the situation looked almost desperate and to make matters worse Warriner was hit a bad crack in the face by the puck during warm-up before the game got underway and had to receive five stitches to close the wound. Even under these conditions he turned in a good game with almost all the shots that evaded him being screened from his view. The entire sixty minutes of hockey were fast and hard hitting and the visitors didn’t seem to be able to get going as they were checked off their feet almost at every turn. Once inside the blueline the Mercurys made use of their hockey brains with perfect well aimed shots. Burlington, speedy Mercury pivot man, was kept checked up all night and found the going unusually tough. In the first ten minutes of the game the Clippers showed terrific power and pressed the Sounders into their own end. Using only two forward lines made up of Lewis, Bangay and Gibson; and McCrone, Couch and Hopper the homesters worked many smooth passing plays and only for the great work of Gillson the Clippers might have run up a good score. At 13.41, however, McReavy broke through and passed the rubber to Gillespie standing in front of the net. he let go a hard drive that bounced off Warriner’s pad into the corner. Although the Clippers continued to press they could not dent Gillson’s armour and the score at the end of the first twenty minutes of play showed the northerners holding a one shit lead. The Clippers outshot their rivals 12-4 in the period. Hardly had the second period gotten under way when Lewis picked up a pass at centre ice and raced in alone only to be outguessed by Gillson who made a spectacular stop on the play. Burlington received a tripping penalty and while he was off the locals again turned on the pressure and had Gillson dodging from one side to the other. After nine minutes of play Ingoldsby took a pass from Forslund and Burlington to put the Mercurys two up and three minutes later Bukacheski sailed in to beat Warriner on passes from McReavy and
Gillespie. The Clippers, although trailing by three goals, never let down for a minute and near the end of the middle session Gibson flew in on Owen Sound net but Gillson slid out to make the stop. Seconds later Hopper romped in alone and once again Gillson kicked the rubber aside.
In the third and final period the Clippers at last cashed in on their efforts as Gibson, the Clipper two goal man, let go with a corner drive on a pass from Lewis while the Mercurys had two of their players serving time in the penalty box. A minute late Kazarian blinked the light on a three man rush and gave to visitors a 4-1 lead. Nearing the four minute mark Hochberg, Couch and Hopper combined with the latter firing a bullet drive that glanced off Gillson’s pad into the net. The locals continued to press and at 4.30 Gibson snared his second goal with a long low shot that Gillson never moved on. Clarke picked up the assist on the play. from then on the scoring was all Owen Sound as Burlington, Hayward and Ingoldsby tallied in that order. The final score read Owen Sound 7, Stouffville 3. During the contest more injuries plagued the already hard hit team. Warriner had the misfortune of having a puck hit him in the face and was given doctors attention, in the second period Couch received a bad crack above the eye and had to be taped up while Bradbury was hit on the side of the leg with the puck and was withdrawn from the lineup for a while. Later Gibson had to leave the game to join his other buddies Sayliss, Stark, Rhodes and Minton, but his injury was not considered serious. The locals once they return to full strength should agin be a powerful squad that overwhelmed the majority of their rivals with comparative ease during the regular schedule. MISTOOK BIG FISH FOR SUBMARINE
Messrs. Mel Venn and Howard St. John of Stouffville must have the record catch in Lake Simcoe. They hauled in a 45-pound pike last week that was nearly six feet long and a young lad who accompanied the
pair, jokingly remarked he thought it must be a submarine. The fish was hooked in comparatively shallow water in Cook’s Bay, Lake Simcoe. Only a few weeks ago, Roy Heaton brought to town a 24 pounder which was thought to out-weigh anything at the time. WILD BRAWL FEATURES THIRD MERCURY-CLIPPER PLAYOFF ENCOUNTER
With only minutes remaining in the third semi-final game played in Owen Sound on Saturday night a wild fistic battle broke out among players of both teams with the chief offenders being Kazarian of the Mercurys and Bangay of the Clippers. Ot all started when Rose was charged into the boards by Kazarian and the Clipper defenceman took exception to the rough treatment and tripped his heavier rival. At
once other players joined in the fray and as sticks and gloves were dropped Bangay and Kazarian came together at centre ice. The rugged lacrosse and hockey star hit the Clipper captain with a terrific blow
and dropped him to the ice but as Kazarian fell to hold Bangay for the count with a headlock, Nick fought free and rolled his attacker over. The referee stood idly by and let the two boys battle it out. When satisfied that they had each done enough damage the two players got to their feet. Both players were none the worse for their skirmish but were banished for the rest of the contest with minor, major and match misconducts. As the game was nearly over the penalties didn’t have much significance. On the night’s play it was needless to say that the Mercurys were just too good for the locals as the 15-3 defeat would indicate. Such speedsters as Burlington, Ingoldsby, Forslund and Gillespie form a powerful attacking crew and along with other goal-hungry players the Mercurys are a winning aggregation. Warriner was once again in the nets and did a good job as the Mercurys labelled shots at him from every angle. He handled over thirty shots as well as playing the drives that evaded him. Gillson was given a rather easy night with just half the stops to make. Ingoldsby started the scoring and was followed by Hayward, Allum, Forslund and White. Gibson notched the lone Clipper tally from Lewis. The second twenty minutes saw the locals match their rivals goal for goal with Gibson and Lewis combining on both goals. Hayward and Ingoldsby netted two for the Mercurys. In the final frame the Clippers turned on quite a determined attack and had the Sounders backed into their own end but at the seven minute mark the play swung towards the other end of the rink. Forslund bagged his second goal of the night and Burlington who had been kept in check throughout the entire game broke loose while the Clippers were a man short. Midway through the final session the Mercurys shifted into overdrive and poured around the Clipper net. Gillespie tipped the puck into the cage as Warriner came out to clear and Burlington added his second a minute later. before the end of the game Ingoldsby, Grant and McReavy had all blinked the light. Machin and Clarke played well on the blueline while Gibson and Lewis were the main firing power up front. With Minton and Stark still out of the lineup Coach Bangay struck to two lines but only one line showed much fighting spirit. CLIPPERS TAKE FIRST PLAYOFF ENCOUNTER DOWN MILLIONAIRES 5-1
Showing more finish around the net payed off in the first game of the Clippers-Millionaire Sr. B. series as the locals trimmed their rivals to the tune of 5-1. The Clippers had the visitors checked off their feet as they broke up many a strong rush before they could get over their own blueline. The locals showed more of the old form that carried them through the entire schedule near the top of the heap. Markham snipers such Galand, Brennan and Singleton couldn’t get going and even when the Stouffville zone Rhodes was always on hand to hold the fort. The game was cleanly played with all penalties being of a minor nature and although the checking became hard at times the boys kept their heads realizing that in playoff hockey a penalty might be disastrous. In the first period with G. Scott serving a penalty Machin and and Bangay carried the play into the Millionaire end and when the Clippers captain passed the rubber in front of the visitors cage Gibson who seemed to be poison around the Markham net cleared the loose puck by Stunden for the first goal. As the visitors once again returning to full strength Machin was sent to the cooler but the foursome of Stark, Sayliss, Hochberg and Rose held out in great style. Minton received a tripping penalty and Markham turned on the power but were once again held at bay and the Clippers retained their one goal lead at the end of the period.
In the middle frame the Clippers struck hard and fast as Hopper banged in McCrone’s pass behind the Markham net to take a two goal lead. Play began to roughen up somewhat as the boys started to throw their weight around. At 9.26 Gibson wheeled around the Millionaire cage to pick up a rebound and backhand the puck into the corner for tally number three. With Hochberg serving a two minute holding penalty Vic Sluce notched the visitors one and only marker on a neat drive into the bottom corner with assists going to Brennan and Singleton. At the midway mark in the period and the game, Gibson and Hochberg received two minute penalties in quick succession, and while they were off, Rhodes turned in a terrific puck stopping performance as the Millionaires could do everything but push the rubber by the boy with heavy pads. Near the end of the frame Hopper centred the puck out and Couch, standing in front, flipped it by Stunden to end the scoring for the period.
In the final frame both teams battled fairly even as the Clippers tried to protect their three goal lead and wait for their scoring goal lead and wait for any scoring opportunities that might present themselves. With only two minutes to go Couch bagged his second tally from McCrone and Clarke and the game was over.
On the nights play Baker looked about the best for Markham while Stunden saved the day in the nets on many occasions. For the homesters a number of players stood out with Gibson, and Couch being dangerous around the net with two goals apiece. The defence stood out well and Rhodes was equally good between the pipes.
With the current hockey series, a four-out-of-seven affair practically assured, playing alternate nights on Stouffville, Unionville and Oshawa, Markham Coach Robinson announced that his club could only play in Unionville on Friday night and refused to come to Stouffville on Saturday night. Stouffville being the top club naturally set the first game of the series for Tuesday. A check with the Unionville Arena manager disclosed that Markham Club’s claim of no ice there Thursday had no foundation in fact, and that the Millionaires were quite welcome to play there either Thursday or Friday. As for not coming to Stouffville Saturday night, this has been the locals’ big night all season and naturally they wished to continue with the regular date. Negotiations waxed hot and heavy during the weekend, and Monday the O.H.A. dropped a spoke in the wheel by declaring that Markham must either play the three games this week or the series would be cut. Cutting off their nose to spite their face, Markham’s top brass clung stoutly to their “no Saturday games” declaration. Since both clubs can ill afford to cut the series for financial reasons, the move appeared most foolish. Negotiations were still going on Tuesday. There was a possibility that both sides might come together at the opening gain an official settlement. the deadlock was seriously hampering advertising arrangements for the balance of the series. Markham players meanwhile did not share their coach’s viewpoint and have let it be known that they’re ready to go ahead anytime on a four-out-of-seven series. HIGH SCHOOL WINS OVER MARKHAM
Stouffville High School hockey team trimmed Markham 8-0 in the school league game at Unionville last week. The next meeting between the two clubs may be in Stouffville this Friday night. Agincourt is also in the league and has one win, that against the Markhamites. Moyer led the Stouffville win with three goals, Card belted in a pair, while Peake, Davis and Simpson collected the other three. Stouffville school holds the hockey trophy which they captured last year for the first time in ten tries. LOCAL MIDGETS IN KING CLANCY SERIES
Stouffville Midgets who lost out recently in the O.M.H.A. playoffs with Bolton, have been entered in the T.H.L. Clancy Series. Musselman’s Lake Club which sports a great many local lads, and had been operating in the Uxbridge Bush League will also be likely starters in the Intermediate classification. The playoffs will continue from now until spring. All clubs are allowed to use O.H.A. players if their particular team has been eliminated from competition. You can see lots of action at the local arena for 50c every Monday and Thursday night.

The big Senior ‘B’ hockey playoff series between Markham Millionaires and Stouffville Clippers is expected to draw capacity crowds to every game. Whether or not it would be a four-out-of-seven or
three-out-of-seven was still in hot dispute on Tuesday of this week. v management was set on the big series with Markham doing everything possible to cramp the playoff. The second game was tentatively set for Unionville on Friday night but from there on, the outcome of negotiation are obscure at this time.
The O.H.A. has set March 17th as the deadline to declare the group winner. Only 600 seats are being reserved and these are on sale at $1.00, with the balance of the house of fourteen hundred, rush seats and standing room at 75c. Interest is running at fever pitch on the series, and despite the fact that the Millionaires were trimmed by the Clippers in all four games of the regular schedule, their supporters feel that they have considerably improved and will provide a very interesting time for the Clippers before they’re eliminated. Some of the hottest fans are even calling the greenshirts to take the powerful local club, and all in all there’ll not likely be space to get your nose in for any of the games as long as the series runs. Stouffville for their part have definitely come out of their slump, and looked like pretty potent Senior ‘B’ competition in their last two games. Hochberg was the only member of the club still on the ailing list over the weekend, and at time of writing it was not known whether or not he would be in Tuesday night’s lineup. CLIPPERS MAKE IT CLOSE FOR TWO PERIODS, BUT MERCURYS JUST TOO GOOD
Stouffville Clippers gave everything they had on Saturday night to force a sixth game in the Senior ‘A’ best of seven series with Owen Sound, but the Mercurys were just too good, and Bob Bangay’s crew bowed out of the Allan Cup race 10-4, losing the series 4 games to 1. The Clippers never stopped trying and made it nip and tuck for their clever opponents for a period and a half. Ingoldsby was the big gun for the Mercurys, scoring three big Bill lAlum shot a pair did Forslund, Bukacheski, White and Gillespie accounted for the other three. For Stouffville, Nick Bangay notched two, Couch and Machin each one. Herb Rose and Kazarian livened up the second period with a roughing exchange, while Jim Machin and Bukacheski traded punches in the third period. There were twelve penalties handed out by Referees Farrell of Barrie and Wilcocks of Midland, five to Owen Sound and seven to Stouffville.

MILLIONAIRES SQUARE SERIES EDGING CLIPPERS 5-4
Markham Millionaires had to come from behind a three goal lead built up by the Clippers in the second period to gain a close 5-4 decision over their playoff rivals. it was the second game of their best of
seven series to decide the Senior ‘B’ group championship. The Clippers took the first encounter 5-1. Although both teams battled on fairly even terms throughout the first period the locals came on strong in the second frame and notched three tallies in the first five minutes of play to give them a commanding lead. Going into the final frame the Millionaires displayed their old third period form of other years and fired three goals to the homesters one to take the game. It was a great exhibition of hockey all the way and gave some six hundred fans everything they might want to see for the entire sixty minutes. Until the last half of the final period the contest was all tied up and both teams realized that the next goal would be all important tally. With but five minutes remaining Allen the husky Millionaire defenceman lat go with a bullet drive that caught the corner of the net and proved to be the winning goal. There were a number of stars on the ice for both teams with both goaltenders again turning in good games. Galand was the outstanding performer for the winners with two goals and two assists while the Scott brothers stood out well on defence. Gibson as in the previous game skated hard all night being exceptionally dangerous around the net. There was no scoring in the first period as both teams battled on even terms. Play was very fast and both Rhodes in the Clipper cage and Stunden in the Millionaire net came up with some great stops to hold the forwards off the score sheet. Midway through the opening twenty minutes with Rose serving a two minute minor penalty, Gray of Markham zoomed in on Rhodes but the Clipper netminder pulled off a spectacular save on the young forward. During the penalty Gibson showed some terrific back-checking form as he broke up play after play before they could get over the Stouffville blueline. In the middle frame both teams sharpened their shooting eyes as five goals were scored, three by the Clippers and two by the Millionaires. Only forty-three seconds had gone by when Lewis led a strong attack to centre and relayed to Bangay as he crossed to the blueline. The Clipper captain swept behind the net and passed to Gibson standing off the corner and before Stunden could move to cover, the puck was in the net. three minutes later the local added to their total as Clarke let go a hard drive from Minton on a perfect play. At 5.42 on a similar passing play Sayliss flipped the rubber to the top corner from Minton and Stark. Play see-sawed back and forth and gave both goalies a busy period. Couch flew in alone on the unprotected goalie but Stunden kicked the rubber aside i great style and the puck was headed towards the corner. On the return rush Rhodes came up with an equally good stop as he slid out to cover up on Clements who found himself in front of the Clipper net. At the ten minute mark the Millionaires started a determined rally as G. Scott tallied with a backhand drive from Gray. Markham tied the count after three minutes of the third period had ticked when Galand bagged his second tally on a breakaway. At 5.05 Robertson who was moved up front in place of the missing Watson gave the Millionaires the lead for the first time in the game with Clements picking up an assist on the play. The local fans who had seen their team build up a good lead only to have it wiped out had their hopes raised again as Couch swept in to tie the score with Machin in the penalty box. the Millionaires kept up a determined drive and with but six minutes remaining Allen caught the corner for the winning goal. The game was almost a “must” for the Millionaires having their home ice and being one down of the series to have lost the second encounter would have put them at a great disadvantage. It was the final Clipper-Millionaire game that will be played in the Unionville Arena as the fourth contest will be in Oshawa Arena on Friday night. TICKETS FOR SATURDAY

Toronto press comments that Owen Sound Mercurys may be asked by the O.H.A. to join the Major League next season. Owen Sound dropped back this year from the big league, although they maintained a lineup which contained ten members of last year’s Senior ‘A’ outfit. They were just too good for the competition in the local group although the Clippers were able to trim them twice for their only two losses of the season. Owen Sound had a team this year which could very easily have been in second place in the Major circuit, and would have upset every club in that league with the exception of St. Mike’s. However Owen Sound doesn’t desire Kitchener, Hamilton and Toronto competition and these clubs are not keen about traveling to Owen Sound. But the fact still remains, according to Bunny Morgason, Owen Sound has a team of Major League calibre, and what the O.H.A. will do about it remains to be seen. McCRONE AND LEWIS TOP CLIPPERS SCORING HEAP
Earl McCrone and Gord Lewis finished one, two, in the Senior hockey schedule just completed, as the top point-getters. Lewis was the high man in the goals department with 21, while McCrone gave 24 assists.
McCrone played in 23 games to compile 39 points and Lewis featured in 24 games for a total of 35 points. The only member of the club to hit the thirty mark was george Stark, who piled up 30 points. Six played on the club copped 20 points or better, Couch,29, Bangay and Sayliss each 28, Gibson 26 and Minton 20. It’s also an interesting fact that the top three men, McCrone, Lewis and Stark scored a total of 47 goals and the next three, Couch, Bangay and Sayliss were only one goal back with 46. In the 24-game schedule, only four members played in every game. They were Lewis, Couch, Sayliss and Rose. Minton played in only 18, and Bradbury in only 12, due to illness and injuries. The team scored 145 goals in the 24 games played, for an average of just over six goals a game.

the members of the club are seventy strong, have been working faithfully for weeks in preparation for the big event for one night only on March 30th.
Did someone say the power of the press or of hockey fans has waned? Here’s a bulletin just issued by the O.H.A. “Complaint has been expressed by the press and hockey fans generally regarding the rough and illegal play which is taking place in many games and which results in serious injuries to players, fighting, and often causing displays of rowdyism among both fans and players. The executive of the O.H.A. feels that a great deal of the criticism is justified and has therefor instructed the referees that all
penalties must e decided without exception upon a strict interpretation of the rules, with particular attention being paid to charging, boarding and high-sticking penalties.”

STOUFFVILLE ‘STARS‘ GET MEDALS
Last weekend Stouffville Downhill Racing and Imbibing society met all comers at their annual ski outing at Hidden Valley. Host Stan Newmarch got ski fans buzzing with a superb achievement that netted him a silver medal in the event sponsored by Molsons to encourage the national ski team. Then Jim Brazier whisked through the torturous slalom course to achieve another silver medal. Hopes for a clean sweep by the Society soared when Bob Lewis hampered by an aching right wrist, age and an ill-fitting jacket flashed through the gates just one hundredth of a second slower than Jim and was awarded a bronze.
Gord Ness, being impeded by large barnyard animals which wandered onto the course called upon his natural abilities and won a bronze medal with a time just three tenths of a second out of the silver category. John Griffith and John Batz, handicapped by racing against each other and ski equipment which is to be donated to the Royal Ontario Museum, blew across the line for two more bronze medals.
Rookie Len Greenwood, perhaps the finest skier in the block between O’Brien and Mill St., unfortunately “caught a trip” and was unable to finish, although fellow rookie Brian Weir (an import from Orono) salvaged the day with another bronze medal run. TOWN BANTAMS TAKE SQUEAKER

The winner, Winterstein’s third goal of the game came with less than five minutes remaining after Bob Hassard engineered the play.Don Haynes, “Red’ Crawford, ‘Ike” Hodgson, Art Rennick.

CHAMPION SPEED SKATER — HOCKEY TEAM FIRST
On Saturday, 11 year old Keith Acton of Stouffville could have been in Winnipeg making a bid for a berth on the Canadian speed skating team. Instead he was in Alliston, taking his regular shift as a first-string forward on Stouffville’s OMHA Peewee club. The choice was his and he came home a winner. Stouffville blanked Alliston 3-0 and Keith picked up an assist on his team’s second goal. The boys now advance to he third Ontario playoff round. They host Campbellford here Saturday at 8:30 p.m. Keith’s skating coach was high on his chances of gaining 1970 national prominence. Both he and his brother, Kevin were picked as two of 22 competitors from Ontario Kevin made the trip but Keith stayed home. “I couldn’t let the guys down,” explained the young speedster, “and besides I like hockey best.” His father, Jerry is the Peewee team manager. His mother, Betty is a former speed-skating champion. BANTAMS OUT — ‘GAVE THEIR BEST — COACH

At the beginning of the hockey season, the minor hockey pundits were more polite than optimistic about the Peewees chances in playoff competition.

It was a wild sea but the Clipper ship managed to weather the storm and find a comfortable berth — in third or fourth place. Why the doubt? Their 6-2 victory over Picton created a three-way tie with the losers and Wellington. Having the better won-loss record over each of the other two clubs, Stouffville should claim third position in the intermediate ‘B’ standings. Bob Hassard. FIGURE SKATING TESTS

CLIPPERS DRUB ORANGEVILLE 26-3; LEHMAN SETS SCORING RECORD
Leftwinger Bud Lehman, performing on a line with Harold Hodgson and Lawrence Gayman, set a goal-scoring record in the Stouffville Arena on Tuesday night. The local marksman fired three goals in 27 seconds. Gayman picked up assists on all three tallies. The Clippers drubbed Orangeville 26-3.
Lehman’s flurry of goals occurred in the second period. He hit the target at 2:41 and added another at 3:01. He completed the hat trick at 3:08. The three goals came on three separate rushes from the centre-ice face-off. On the night’s play, he picked up a total of nine scoring points. This total comprised 5 goals and 4 assists.
The trio of Lehman, Gayman and Hodgson collected a total of 27 scoring points. Gayman notched 4 goals and added six assists. Hodgson fired 3 tallies and assisted on five. On the night’s play, the Clippers piled up a total of 59 scoring points. John Ross had 4 goals and 4 assists. Phil Nicholas 3 goals and 4 assists. Stan Thornington 3 goals and one assist. Single markers were counted by Moe Blackwell, Geo. Carey, Grant Edwards and Ronnie Guy.
Stouffville buried the Orangeville net under a landslide of rubber. They hammered a total of 76 shots at Jim Hanna in the rival cage. He blocked 50. He appeared to lose heart in the second period and in the final frame, he made little effort to hold the Clippers in check.
Stouffville led 6-1 at the end of the first period; 16-2 at the end of the second and 26-3 at the final whistle. Wayne Ritchie, Bob Montgomery and Les Solomon were the Orangeville marksmen.
The Clippers could easily have extended their goal-scoring total past the thirty mark. In the second period alone, Stan Thornington, Lawrence Gayman and Kevin O’Connor caromed the puck off the post. Other players had clear-cut shots but missed the net. It was the second similar defeat absorbed by the Orangeville team. Georgetown racked up a 26-4 win three weeks ago. Orangeville are a ‘C’ class club. MIDGETS BLANK BEETON 5-0 WITH EIGHT MEN
Icing a skeleton lineup of 8 men, including the goalkeeper, Stouffville’s North York Midget entry came up with a superb defensive performance to blank a highly-rated Beeton club 5-0 here on Friday night. It was Beeton’s first loss in 8 games. They had chalked up seven straight victories.
A three-man rearguard unit of Bob Lehman, Willard Peddle and Roger Todd threw up a stonewall defence in front of goalie Glenn Jackson; any front line thrusts that did break through were turned aside by the agile Jackson.
Up front, the foursome of Larry McMullen, Grant Foreman, Bill Hoover and Rick Wedseltoft turned in their season’s best home effort. Foreman was especially effective every time out. He clicked for two goals and picked up a pair of assists. At times, he checked the opposition to a standstill.
Beeton’s much-feared Maurice Clifford failed to find an opening in goalie Jackson’s armour. Although he completed numerous prolific end-to-end solo rushes, his shots either missed the net or were blocked. While Lehman, Peddle and Todd held the blueline fort, Stouffville’s forwards took advantage of every break to pile up a convincing lead.
They led 2-0 at the end of the first period; 4-0 going into the third and added a single insurance tally in the final frame.
Bill Hoover and Larry McMullen combined to break the ice at 9:40 of the opening period. Rick Wedseltoft pulled the trigger on a three-man effort with Larry McMullen and Grant Foreman at 14:50.
Larry McMullen made it 3-0 early in the middle frame. Grant Foreman was credited with an assist on the goal. Foreman took over the goal-scoring spotlight and fired two-in-a-row. He struck for an unassisted tally at 18:30 of the second period and steamed in alone on a breakaway effort to score early in the final frame. Bill Hoover set Foreman up for the winner’s final goal.
Aside from Clifford, the Beeton team lacked the skating and shooting ability of their Stouffville rivals. According to reports, Barrie have already trained a keen eye on the left-wing smoothie. An equally smart teammate is also rated as possible pro calibre. He was missing from the Beeton lineup in Friday’s tilt.

Please reply “continue” and I will immediately provide the next section starting from: HAYLOW, FORSYTH LEAD HORNET TO WIN
A pair of goals by Francis Haylow and Roger Forsyth paced Pittsburg to a 5-3 win over the Canadiens on Thursday night of last week. Forsyth also picked up one assist. Paul Stover notched a lone tally and assisted on Haylow’s second goal. Arlan Galbraith teamed up with Stover for the final goal of the game.
The Canadiens’ goals were divided among three separate players. Bob Budd, Keith Foreman and Frank Taylor were the marksmen. Bill Corner, Kenny Aida and Keith Foreman collected assists.
Buffalo 2, Leafs 1 Malcolm Ratcliff set up both Buffalo tallies as his team edged the Maple Leafs 2-1. Gary Brown and Billy Payne were the marksmen. Barry McLean combined with Ross Brown to net the Leafs’ only tally. BRUINS BLANK RANGERS 4-0
The Bruins, paced by Bruce Mehaffey, blanked the Rangers 4-0 in a Lions Peewee game on Monday night. The hard-skating winger fired two goals. David Jackson notched one goal and picked up an assist. Barry Zellar also fired one. Bill Harmon picked up a pair of assists.
Wings 3, Hawks 2 In spite of a fine goaltending performance by Pat Smith of the Hawks, the Red Wings eked out a close 3-2 win. Ronnie Castle collected two goals and assisted on one. Blair Wagg scored one and assisted on Castle’s second tally. Peter Turner teamed up with Castle on the game’s first goal. Eric Hamilton and David Whittington were the Hawk marksmen. Laurie Buckland picked up an assist on Hamilton’s tally. The Hawks were short of players and only the fine work of Smith in the net held the power-packed Red Wing squad in check. The Wings are currently well out in front in the group standing. They have 26 points while second place Boston has 13. The Rangers are deadlocked on the second rung with 13 points, while the Hawks are in the cellar with 8. H.S. MIDGETS BEAT MARKHAM 17-14
The High School Midget basketball team continued its mastery over Markham last week by beating their southern rivals 17-14 in a scheduled Friday night encounter. Brian Wilkes chalked up seven points for the winners. Mike Paul scored 5; Barry McLean 4 and Larry Spang 1. Bob Rathie paced the opposition with 8 points. Don Ferguson and Clair Roland scored Markham’s other points.
The local Juniors didn’t fare so well as their Midget cousins. They lost to Markham Jrs. 57-30. Bill DeGuerre was a tower of strength for Markham, collecting a 15 point total. John Leishman scored 12; Roger Stover continued his fine performance for Stouffville. He counted 18 points. Garry Baston scored 5; Don Eddington 6 and Jim Spang, 1.

pictures EDITORIAL STICKS FOR STARS
This week we are pleased to make two hockey stick awards to members of our Lions Peewee League. On Jan. 26th, the last place Black Hawks took on the first place Red Wings. Pat Smith, a member of the Hawk roster, agreed to guard the Chicago net in an effort to hold the Wings in check. For a fine performance between the pipes, Pat was the unanimous choice for the stick award. Although his team lost, he held the Wing marksmen to a mere three goals. For the week of Feb. 2nd, Larry Plaskett is the number one star. A forward with the Rangers, Larry scored one goal to give his team a 1-1 tie with the Red Wings. Both Larry and Pat may pick up their All-Star hockey sticks from Mr. Cec Hendricks’ store on Main Street. CHALLENGED
Tighten your garter belts, men, our hockey supremacy has been challenged. It’s not the Russians who are threatening our ice superiority, but, of all things, girls. On Sunday afternoon a large contingent of female visitors invaded the local arena to compete in a friendly exhibition game. Putting mildly, it was an interesting skirmish.
With the exception of shoulder-length hair, pigtails and figure skates, the teenage belles were adorned quite similarly to their male counterparts. For the most part they displayed amazing skating and puck-handling skill. Although some had a tendency to wander out of position, the majority held their wings better than many of our minor league lads.
The girls sported various types of headgear. Some wore toques while others had only ear muffs. Two were equipped with adult-type helmets. Their speed was hampered by short-bladed figure skates. Their stops and starts, however, would put the Clippers to shame. They could turn on a dime. Some player’s skates were equipped with silver bells which aid in warning the goalkeeper of planned scoring bids and fistic encounters were noticeable by their absence.
The netminders displayed exceptional courage. They performed through much of the contest on their knees or in a crouch position. The Don Mills goal-guardian chalked up a shutout. Clara, a community near Agincourt, were beaten 2-0.
The game attracted a large following of fans. The majority of spectators were — you guessed it — boys. They acclaimed favourites with rafter-raising enthusiasm. Such vocal expression in a non-scheduled game has never been equalled.
The girls would range in age from 13 to 18 years. Their skill would compare favourably with our topflight Peewee entries. Although they lacked shooting prowess, they were exceptionally strong skaters. Only one girl managed to lift the puck off the ice and that constituted a Texas League backhander that barely had enough height to clear the blueline.
Although the all-girl game left much to be desired from the point of passing, shooting and stick-handling ability, it was interesting to see the return of fan enthusiasm. Perhaps that’s the answer to today’s hockey problem. Clipperettes to replace Clippers? Surely not that. HIGH SCHOOL WINS BASKETBALL TWIN BILL
Stouffville High School’s two boys’ basketball teams chalked up a doubleheader victory on Wednesday afternoon of last week. The Midgets, led by Glenn Jackson, scored a 25-7 win over Woodbridge. The Juniors, paced by Roger Stover and Garry Baston, defeated Woodbridge Jrs. 62-31. It was only the second scheduled Midget game for Jackson. He collected a total of 10 points. A set shot from the corner proved most deadly. Brian Wilkes and Mike Paul each garnered five points apiece.
The Midgets started slowly, but continued to improve as the game progressed. They salted the contest away in the last quarter. It was the team’s 4th straight win. The boys are hopeful that they might bring the District Championship to the school this year.
Roger Stover continues to roll up the points for the Junior squad. He may set a point-scoring record before the schedule is completed. He added 20 points to his total on Wednesday afternoon. Garry Baston was also a 20-point marksman. Allan Boyd collected 10. Stouffville plays the return games at Woodbridge on Feb. 13. MIDGETS HUMBLE SUTTON 11-3 IN PLAYOFF OPENER
Stouffville’s North York Midget team turned their goal-scoring guns on a rather weak Sutton entry Friday evening and humbled their hosts 11-3. It was the first game of a home-and-home playoff series. King City and Woodbridge, Alliston and Beeton are paired in separate contests. Sutton will be the visitors in Stouffville on Friday at 6:45 p.m.
Keith McDowell had a point-scoring field day at the expense of Sutton. He potted a pair of goals and picked up two assists. Rick Wedseltoft and Grant Foreman were also two-goal marksmen. Larry McMullen equalled McDowell’s point total with a goal and three assists. Single tallies came from the sticks of Bill Hoover, Lynn McMullen, Willard Peddle and Roger Todd.
Stouffville held a 4-0 lead at the first period. Each club scored twice in the second but the visitors held a 4-1 edge in the final frame. Joe McLeod counted two of Sutton’s three tallies. Boother notched one.
Seven penalties were handed out, five to Stouffville and two to Sutton. Bill Hoover spent four minutes in the cooler, two for hooking and two for cross-checking.

Lions benefit game with “Dunnies” net Crippled Children $700.
The exhibition benefit game on Thursday night between the Whitby Dunlops and the Stouffville Clippers netted the Lions Club over $700.00. A sum of $500 has been allocated by the Lions organization for the Ontario Crippled Children’s Building Campaign. A crowd of over 1,300 fans witnessed the contest. Whitby chalked up a 14-2 win. Although Whitby iced a star-squad, Clipper netminder Joe Carpenter excelled in Stouffville goal. He blocked a total of 35 shots, many of sizzling drives were point-blank from inside the blueline or three-way passing efforts at close range. His performance received repeated ovations from the huge crowd. A lanky John Hendricks, though pelted with pucks, appeared to handle the majority of shots with comparative ease.
Clipper Captain, Harold Hodgson, fired a picture tally. He picked up a pass from Lawrence and deked Henderson out of position to score. George Carey completed an equally fine effort to notch Stouffville’s final goal. The local centreman used Stan Thornington as a decoy and hit the target with a flip shot. Two Dunlop markers were counted with Stouffville playing a man short.
Stouffville’s former pro, Bob Hassard, turned in a fine hockey performance for the “Dunnies”. He fired three goals and assisted on one. Tom O’Connor also a three-goal marksman for the world champs. Sid Smith and Geo Samolenko each potted a pair. Sandy Air, Pete Babando, Fred Etcher and Alf Treen counted singles.
Phil Nicholas had a number of fine chances to score but his drives were blocked on each occasion. He was one of Stouffville’s best. John Ross, Harold Hodgson, Grant Edwards, Kevin O’Connor, Ronnie Guy and Stan Thornington each made good goalscoring bids but were stopped. Henderson “robbed” Harold Hodgson on a clean-cut breakaway effort. Stouffville’s Joe Carpenter looked especially brilliant on shots from George Samolenko and Bob Attersley. In the second period, Tom O’Connor glanced a drive off the goal post.
During the between-period intermissions, spectators were treated to a fine exhibition of figure skating by Karen Lewis, Betty Ann Slack and Jean Winterstein, members of the Stouffville Skating Club. They were presented with floral bouquets by Mr. Ken Laushway. The flowers were donated by the Stouffville Floral Co. Following the game the players and managements of both clubs were treated to refreshments, served in the arena. Picture EDITORIAL LIFE SUSPENSION NEEDED
Every time I witness a stick-swinging brawl in the local arena, I am convinced that it is the worst exhibition of poor sportsmanship to be displayed here. Although I have seen literally dozens of such incidents, Tuesday night’s fracas is without doubt unequalled in the annals of local hockey. From my vantage point about twenty feet from the battle scene there was little or no excuse for Georgetown’s Dave Irons to completely “blow his top”. I have seen a player take a malicious swing at an opponent with his stick but to repeat such an act three or four times in succession is going beyond all limits.
Except for the intervention of Stouffville goalie, Joe Carpenter, a major injury might have resulted. Defenceman Dave Voyce also incurred the wrath of the officials when he jabbed the butt end of his stick into linesman Polly Minton. Although, to me, this action cannot be compared with the assault on forward Bud Lehman. It is likely that the OHA will take an equally dim view of this affair also.
Any player who loses his head and makes a deliberate attempt to injure an opponent has no place in the game. Had he connected with one of his intended blows, Lehman would no doubt have been hospitalized or even worse suffered a permanent injury. Such a man should not be permitted to carry such a lethal weapon as a hockey stick. When crossed, any rival player becomes a potential victim. The referees’ report will have considerable bearing on the sentence that will be handed down in this case. I would contend that such an athlete is a menace both to sport and its competitors. IN COMPLETE AGREEMENT
The O.H.A. plans to crack down on the use of abusive language by Junior, Intermediate and Senior hockey players. According to local executive member, Mr. L. E. “Tim” O’Neill, a fine of $25 is being considered for each offence. A fourth infraction could nip $100 from a player’s pocketbook.
I am in complete agreement with any decision along this line. Too often, players seem to forget that the attention of hundreds of fans is focused on them. When they unthinkingly eject a volley of blasphemous comments, a black mark is immediately chalked up against both themselves and the sport. Women and children should not be subjected to such abuse, whether it is directed at the officials or at a single spectator.
In many games such remarks may go unnoticed, but in hockey this is not the case. In the Stouffville Arena, for example, front row fans are located on a direct level with the players. If offensive players lack personal pride and gentlemanly conduct, perhaps a few touches on their wallets will quiet their verbal enthusiasms. SHOULD CHANGE ICING RULE
I feel that there should be a change in the present icing rule. At the present time a defending team, when short-handed, may repeatedly shoot the puck down the ice to relieve the pressure. Often a club, even with a man advantage, may not get a single shot on their rival’s net. Much of the two minutes is spent chasing the disc into a team’s own end zone. It doesn’t take much head-work for a defenceman or forward to lift a rafter-high shot over the heads of attacking rivals.
The icing of the puck can be even more irritating when a team holds a one-goal lead and minutes are ticking off on straight time. True, the puck is returned, but many valuable minutes can be wasted through this practice. I have seen this happen in many minor league contests. A smart coach will instruct his club to ice the puck whenever possible. I would contend that a penalty should be imposed on the team that commits this offence when the game is being run off on a straight time basis. I would outlaw the icing rule entirely when a club is short-handed. It might act as a deterrent to rule infractions.
georgetown player suspended; CLIPPERS WIN 6-2
Forward Dave Irons and defenceman Dave Voyce, both of Georgetown, were ejected from a scheduled OHA Intermediate “B” game in the Stouffville Arena on Tuesday night following a vicious attack on a player and an official. Both penalties carry automatic suspensions. Irons was also tagged with a five-minute major. The Clippers upset the league-leaders by a score of 6-2.
Strikes Lehman
Leftwinger Bud Lehman of Stouffville was the victim of Irons’ stick-swinging attack. The incident occurred in the second period with the Clippers holding a 3-1 lead. Lehman and Irons collided on the backboards after the latter failed in a close-in scoring bid. Irons flailed Lehman about the head and shoulders with his stick.
Carpenter to Rescue
In previous years, Lehman would have retaliated, but on this occasion he declined to return the attack. Clipper netminder Joe Carpenter, an eyewitness on the scene, vaulted from his cage to Lehman’s defence. He toppled Irons to the ice and pummeled him about the head and face with both fists. Players from both benches charged onto the ice but didn’t become involved. The two combatants were finally separated by referee Bob Naden and linesman Polly Minton.
Swings at Fan
At the height of the fisticuffs, defenceman Dave Voyce of Georgetown took exception to remarks from partisan Stouffville fans and attempted to retaliate with his stick. He later jostled with Clipper rearguard Ronnie Guy at centre ice and a new fight flared. During the melee, Voyce jabbed the butt end of his hockey stick into linesman Polly Minton. He was immediately ejected from the game. He had to be forcibly led from the ice by his own team mates as he tried vainly to renew the attack. Both Voyce and Irons will appear before a meeting of the OHA board. Mr. Tim O’Neill, a member of the Executive, was in attendance at the game and witnessed the entire schmozzle. Goalie Carpenter and rearguard Guy each received five-minute majors.
At their Best
It was Stouffville’s best home performance of the entire season. They outplayed the league leaders from the opening face-off and were full value for their win. It was a complete reversal of form from the Bradford-Clipper contest of Saturday night. Grant Edwards and John Ross each potted a pair of goals. Singles came from the sticks of Kevin O’Connor and Geo. Stark. Jim Cunningham and Dave Irons were the Georgetown marksmen. It was Stouffville’s initial victory over the Raiders this season.
Blackwell Good
Defenceman Moe Blackwell was one of the stars of the game. He turned in a torrid offensive effort and handed out a number of jolting checks to freewheeling Georgetown forwards. Geo. Carey continued his fine performance although held off the score sheet. Geo. Stark’s solo rush was a picture goal.
Playoffs Near
Although the group playoffs are just around the corner, Stouffville’s definite opposition in the first round has not been settled. They will meet either Bradford or Georgetown. Milton are currently in the fourth and last playoff position, two points behind Stouffville. The Clippers clash with Milton on Friday night. LOCAL SKATER CANADIAN CHAMPION
Debbie Wilkes and Guy Revel, winners of the Canadian Junior Pairs Championship, were followed with great enthusiasm by Stouffville skaters on Saturday evening, at the North American Championships conducted in the Varsity Arena. A capacity crowd of over 5,000 attended.
Debbie, only 12 years old and 4 ft. 11 inches in height, was the smallest competitor. Her partner, Guy Revel, is 16. He resides in Newmarket. Both skaters make Unionville their home figure skating club. Debbie has been a member of the Stouffville club for the past two seasons. Debbie and Guy performed well and drew high admiration and applause from the huge throng of spectators. MIDGETS THUMP SUTTON 13-3; WIN ROUND 24-6
Stouffville’s North York Midget entry had a goal-scoring field day on Friday night. Bill Lennox’s squad rapped a total of 13 tallies into the Sutton cage to humble the Lake Simcoe crew 13-3. They took the two-game tilt by a basketball score of 24-6.
As the contest progressed, the forwards became almost too goal-hungry and neglected to formulate any three-way passing plays. Sutton counted a pair in the second period and a lone tally in the final frame.
Frontline star, Grant Foreman, was in his glory. The hard-working puck-chaser fired a total of four goals and picked up three assists. Lynn McMullen was equally sharp in the scoring department. He kept pace with teammate Foreman with a four-goal effort. He picked up one assist. Bill Hoover netted a pair. Single tallies came from the sticks of Rick Wedseltoft, Larry McMullen and Keith McDowell. Rick Wedseltoft set up two other goals. Don McLeod and Brian Miller were the Sutton marksmen.
There were seven penalties in the game, six to Stouffville and one to Sutton. The winners now move on to engage Beeton and King City in a round-robin playoff final. JIM MILLER FIRES HAT TRICK FOR BUFFALO
The threesome of Jim Miller, Billy Payne and Gary Brown went on a goal-scoring spree on Monday night in Lions Bantam League competition. The trio chalked up a total of nine scoring points as Buffalo downed the Leafs 5-3. Jim Miller was the top marksman with a three-goal hat trick. Billy Payne potted one goal and picked up two assists, and Gary Brown fired one tally and assisted on one. Barry McLean potted a pair for the Leafs. Eric Mortimer notched one.
Pittsburg 8, Canadiens 3
Roger Forsyth kept pace with rival forward Jim Miller by firing a three-goal hat trick for Pittsburg. The Hornets trimmed the Canadiens 8-3. Robert Mole potted a pair. Francis Haylow, Geo. Smith and Eric Neilson each potted singles for the Canadiens. Frank Taylor scored 2 goals and picked up one assist. Bill Corner collected one and assisted on one of Taylor’s tallies. Jim Harper and Keith Foreman each picked up one assist.

Pictures CLIPPERS TRIMMED IN PLAYOFF OPENER
A bobbing, bouncing Jack “Dusty” Rhodes weathered a storm of rubber in the first period as the Georgetown Raiders racked up a decisive 8-3 victory over the Clippers on Tuesday night in the group playoff opener. The next two games are in Georgetown with a return tilt back here on Thursday, Feb. 26th.
Rhodes, a former Stouffville goal guardian, was almost unbeatable in the opening frame. The only puck that did evade his stocky form was a deflection drive that caromed off a Georgetown player’s stick. Forward Phil Nicholas was credited with the tally. In the first period, he turned aside determined bids by Ted Vanderpol, Kevin O’Connor, Harold Hodgson and Geo. Carey. In a melee around his cage, the crewcut puckstopper was clipped on the head by a stick. The accident necessitated a five-minute delay while first aid treatment was rendered in the Raiders dressing room.
The Georgetown forwards made their shots count, although outplayed in the first period, they tested Clipper goalie Joe Carpenter with direct drives on every scoring bid. They fired three tallies within the short space of two minutes and three seconds. Blake Ingles potted a pair. Bud Varey notched one.
The Clippers were completely outplayed in the second period. The visitors counted three unanswered goals. Near the end of the frame, Georgetown’s Wally Magdy and Jim Cunningham were penalized, but Stouffville could not get their offensive attack organized. Although playing four men to six, Georgetown had two clean-cut breakaways. Carpenter blocked one shot and another drive to the corner was nullified by the end-of-the-period buzzer. The Clippers netted one tally that was also called back. It crossed the line after the official had blown his whistle. Ron Dixon scored twice for the winners. Jim Cunningham counted one. Cunningham’s goal caught the Stouffville defence completely flatfooted. The fast-moving forward sifted in alone to beat Carpenter cleanly.
There was little to choose between the teams in the final frame. Kevin O’Connor and John Ross potted a pair of goals for the homesters. Jr. Beaumont and Bud Varey sank singles for the Raiders. O’Connor’s drive was a sizzling slap shot that caught Rhodes off guard. Ross caught the corner with a rising backhand shot. Harold Hodgson rang a bullet drive off the goal post and Stan Thornington was blocked on the crease when set up by forward Lawrence Gayman, only 11 men with defenceman Dave Voyce and forward Lawrence Gayman.
With defenceman Dave Voyce and forward Dave Irons still under suspension, Georgetown dressed only 11 players. From their performance, this number appeared quite sufficient. Both Voyce and Irons were hauled up on the OHA carpet on Wednesday. They were involved in a fistic and stick-swinging encounter in the Stouffville rink on Feb. 10. Stouffville iced a complete roster of 15 men. Some members of the local roster played much below par.
The Clippers have a tough row to hoe in the next five days. They journey to Georgetown for a return tilt on Friday night and hit the road again on Tuesday for the third game. LIONS MIDGETS WIN OPENER, LOSE SERIES TO PICKERING 7-6
Stouffville’s one-man Midget team failed to get past the first round of Provincial competition. The Lions’ sponsored entry edged Pickering 3-2 in the series opener but dropped the return tilt at Whitby on Saturday afternoon 5-3. The winners took the round by a 7-6 count.
In a nutshell, it was Pickering vs Warren Hendricks. In the six-goal total scored by Stouffville, the agile forward fired five and picked up an assist on one. In the second game, coach Sutherland used Hendricks throughout much of the contest. He notched the three Stouffville goals in the final frame, although leg-weary, he continued to carry the locals’ offensive attack. He was used to kill off penalties and on power plays.
On the afternoon’s play at Whitby, Stouffville were out-classed. In spite of this, the visitors came close to scoring the tying tally. In the game’s final minute, trailing 7-6 on the round, Warren Hendricks romped up left wing on a final goal-scoring bid. He flipped a pass to linemate Jim Knox. Knox’s shot missed the open corner. That was the game and the series.
Stouffville were forced to a third-period rally to up their 3-2 win on Thursday night. The homesters had a 1-0 lead at 12:06 of the first frame. Jim Knox banged in Warren Hendricks’ goalmouth pass to give Stouffville the edge. At 2:03 of the second period, Don Arscott evened the score for Pickering. Jim Irwin put Pickering out front 2-1 two minutes later. It was Hendricks who came to his team’s rescue. He notched the equalizer at 9:22 from Joe Herold and fired the winner at 13:10. With Pickering playing a man short, Wayne Pennanen was credited with an assist on the tally.
Pickering hit fast and hard in the first period at Whitby. They held a 4-1 lead at the end of the opening frame. Each club notched singles in the second period. Stouffville scored the lone third-period goal. Bob Everett was a two-goal marksman for Pickering. Jim Irwin, Don Arscott and Bob McBride fired singles. Hendricks counted a three-goal hat trick. Two of his tallies were unassisted. Jim picked up a point on Stouffville’s second goal.
Aside from Hendricks, Pennanen was the only other player who rated a star in the locals’ lineup. He was used as a fourth forward in power plays and displayed good puck-carrying ability. He had little luck around the Pickering net and garnered only one assist in the series. HIGH SCHOOL MIDGETS BASKETBALL CHAMPS
An undefeated Stouffville High School Midget basketball team won the Georgian Bay South championship on Friday night by beating Woodbridge 24-21. The Juniors also chalked up a win, beating Woodbridge 50-24. Barry McLean paced the Midgets to their Friday night victory with eight points. Mike Paul scored seven. Roger Stover racked up a total of twenty-five points for the Juniors. Garry Baston collected eleven.
On Wednesday, Feb. 4th, the Midgets posted a 23-22 win over Pickering College. Brian Wilkes topped the winners’ point-scorers with 10. Mike Paul counted six. The Stouffville Juniors lost to Pickering College 49-25. Roger Stover added 11 points to his already near-record total. The Midgets will now meet Richmond Hill for the North York championship and the “Liberal” trophy. Richmond Hill are an ‘A’ class club and have been perennial holders of the cup.
In the Junior circuit, Roger Stover is only nine points away from equalling Gord Eckardt’s record. The Juniors have two games left to play. RED WINGS BLANKED BY HAWKS 2-0
The first-place Red Wings suffered an upset on Monday evening when they were blanked by the last-place Hawks 2-0. Eric Hamilton was one of the main cogs in the Chicago machine. He fired one goal and picked up an assist. David Whittington notched the other tally for the winners. The powerful Wings couldn’t hit the target in spite of many good chances. It was only their third loss this season.
Bruce Mehaffey is enjoying another good year in the Peewee ranks. He is currently his team’s leading marksman. He extended this lead by scoring one goal and picking up an assist as the Bruins downed the Rangers 3-1. Paul Lintner notched a single. Ian Wightman up with Teddy Topping to score the other Boston goal. Danny Irwin was the Ranger’s marksman. Larry Plaskett credited with an assist.
The hard-working forward David Jackson was selected the all-star player of the week. He will receive an all-star hockey stick from Mr. Cec Hendricks, Main St., Stouffville. MIDGETS BLANK KING CITY 6-0
Stouffville’s North York Midget team blanked King City 6-0 on Wednesday night of last week in the opening game of the North York round-robin playoffs. The locals will play host to King City here on Friday evening of this week.
Defenceman Bob Lehman paced the Stouffville attack with two goals and one assist. Keith McDowell, Grant Foreman, Lynn McMullen and Bill Hoover were the other marksmen for the winners. Larry McMullen, Rick Wedseltoft and Willard Peddie collected assists.
Stouffville led 1-0 in the first frame on McDowell’s tally. Tallies by Foreman and Lehman in the second period put Stouffville out front 3-0. Lehman, Hoover and Lynn McMullen concluded the rout with single goals in the final frame.
Stouffville goalie Glenn Jackson enjoyed a rather easy night in the net. He handled only a dozen shots. Grant Foreman and Bob Lehman were two of the best for the winners. Five penalties were handed out, three to Stouffville and two to King City.

EDITORIAL http://news.ourontario.ca/whitchurchstouffville/100129/page/10 COLD FEET
It’s apparent that this winter’s frigid temperatures must be having some effect on members of the HA executive. The soft decision handed down by a selected committee on Wednesday of last week is a sure sign of cold feet. Dave Irons, a forward with Georgetown, who viciously attacked Stouffville’s Bud Lehman in a stick-swinging episode on Feb. 10th, received a mere four game suspension. He will be back in harness for Thursday’s contest here. Georgetown rearguard Dave Voyce was also brought up on the carpet for jabbing linesman Polly Minton with a butt end. He received a mere three game suspension and returned to action on Tuesday night. Every year we hear the same story from the OHA. They instruct the officials to rule with an iron hand. They issue dire threats of proposed fines and suspensions. Suddenly some player “blows his top” and is immediately pegged with an automatic suspension. When summoned before the Executive subcommittee, the members forget previous demands and threats and bring down a “kid glove” decision.
How does the O.H.A. expect their officials to enforce the rules, when they themselves, are guilty of “soft soaping” their defendants. It is unlikely that another similar episode will ever occur again in the local arena, but certainly the three and four game suspensions will not be a deterrent to such hooliganisms.
I only wish that the O.H.A. members who meted out the sentences could have witnessed the disgraceful scene, as I did. Perhaps their judgment might have been different. Mr. L. E. O’Neill had a ringside seat but did not give evidence or sit in judgment. Both officials described the rhubarb. Their word alone should have been enough to send the players down the hockey river for at least the remainder of the season.
I am not biased on this issue. If the tables had been turned and Bud Lehman had been the aggressor instead of the innocent victim, I would feel exactly the same way. Any player or players, whether they sport the colours of Stouffville, Georgetown or Bradford should expect no favours when involved in such a ridiculous one-sided schmozzle.
The thought of being called up on the carpet before the O.H.A. was once a shuddering experience. If similar decisions continue to be handed down, it will merely be regarded as a routine practice.
========================== STICKS FOR STARS
This week our special hockey stick award goes to ricky thompson of the Rangers. Although the Peewee performer has scored only two goals this season and was held off the score sheet on Monday night, his excellent efforts have earned him the prize. He may select his stick from mr. Cec. Hendricks hardware store, Main Street, Stouffville.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. LIONS BANTAMS RALLY TO BEAT ALLISTON 6-4; MEET BOBCAYGEON NEXT
Hal Gibson’s Bantams are hot on the playoff trail again. The Lions’ sponsored entry chalked up a thrilling 6-4 victory over Alliston on Thursday night. They held their opposition to a 3=3 draw at Alliston to take the total goal series by a score of 9-7. Stouffville now advances into a further Provincial series. They journey to Bobcaygeon on Thursday evening with the return tilt back in Stouffville on Monday night.
Stouffville were forced to come from behind in both games. They trailed 3-0 at Alliston before staging a rally to gain a split in the points. It was a similar story on Thursday when they spotted their rivals a two goal lead, then stormed back to win 6-4. It was a disappointed crowd of spectators that watched Alliston hold a decided edge in the first frame. Stouffville showed signs of a possible comeback in the second period and unleashed a vicious goalscoring attack in the last period. f
Roger Forsyth was a three-goal marksman for Stouffville. His first tally was a bullet drive at 1:26 of the final frame. He added two more goals before the end of the game. Linemate Barry McLean netted one goal and picked up four assists. Jim Miller potted a pair and assisted on one.
Rightwinger Ross Brown was one of the smallest players on the ice but he turned in a man-sized effort. Although he failed to score any goals, he broke up numerous Alliston plays with a torrid fore-checking performance. Linemate Bill Corner also played well. A strong skater, the chunky second line forward, added much-needed weight to the second string trio. Defenceman Garry Gall and George Smith performed well on the stouffville rearguard. After a rather shaky start, netminder Wayne Oldham settled down to make a number of fine saves.
First period goals from the sticks of Alliston forwards were “fluke” shots that slipped past goalie Oldham. Mac Heatherington drove the disk between Oldham’s pads at 5:03. Three minutes later, Eric Fowler put Alliston two up when he pushed the puck between the post and Oldham’s skate. There was some disagreement over the legality of this goal but it was allowed.
From the drop of the puck in the second period, it was obvious that Stouffville would not bow out without a fight. In the first minute, Roger Forsyth bore into the Alliston end-zone but his drive was blocked. At 1:36 Barry McLean deflected Jim Millers shot into the top corner of the net. Alliston had one excellent chance to regain their two-goal advantage when John Bowerman sailed in on Oldham. The unorthodox puckstopper smothered his drive.
The homesters outscored the visitors 5-2 in the final frame to sew up the game and the series. Roger Forsyth found his shooting eye and hammered home the first of three tallies at 1:26. Geo. Smith picked up an assist on the tally. Jim Miller had a fine opportunity to put Stouffville out front but his shot missed the open cage. At 3:58, Alliston’s Bob Irwin hit the target with a bullet shot but the locals evened the score two minutes later. Roger Forsyth was again the marksman on a pass from Barry McLean. Three successive goals from the sticks of Jim Miller (2) and Roger Forsyth salted the contest away. Jerry Hand of Alliston tipped the puck over the line with only 11 seconds left in the game for the visitors final goal.
Alliston ran into some foolish third period penalties that hurt their chances. Blair Mortimer and Jerry Hand were banished for boarding and Jerome Bradley did a two minute stint in the cooler for charging.
Stouffville had few penalties throughout the contest. Jim Miller was thumbed to the sin-bin in the second period, but Alliston were held off the score sheet. Alliston had two good chances to score, but Oldham came to the rescue on each occasion. Frontline forward, Bob Irwin romped in on the Stouffville net both times but was blocked.
Bob Bangay handled the Bantam entry from the player’s box, in the absence of team coach Hal Gibson. The ex-Clipper star was in his usual form and boomed out instructions to his proteges whenever they roamed out of position or slackened speed. He also handed out some firsthand pointers during the between period intermission.
February 26 1959 (con’t) CLIPPER GOALIE SUFFERS BROKEN WRIST
Clipper netminder Joe Carpenter has been sidelined with a broken wrist. The accident occurred in the second game of the current group playoff semi-finals played at Georgetown on Friday night. The two teams battled to a 7-7 draw. In spite of the injury the agile puck-stopper continued to perform between the pipes. He was forced out of action in Tuesday’s tilt. Stouffville were humbled 11-4. The Raiders need only one victory and a tie to move on into the group finals. The two teams hook up here on Thursday night in the fourth game.
John Ross paced the Stouffville attack in Fridays contest. He potted a pair of goals.
Singles came from the sticks of Geo. Carey, Bud Lehman, Grant Edwards, Stan Thornington and Kevin O’Connor. Goalie Carpenter hopes to return to the Clipper fold on Thursday. His wrist is presently encased in a cast. Geo. Wilkins substituted for the injured Carpenter on Tuesday night. The lengthy layoff was quite apparent, especially in the games early minutes when Georgetown tucked five tallies behind him.
Georgetown’s two suspended players will be back in action here on Thursday night. Dave Irons and Dave Voyce were brought up oh the carpet by the OHA for their part in the stickhandling brawl on Feb. 10th in the Stouffville Arena. Voyce returned to action on Tuesday night after a three game layoff. Irons will be back on Thursday. A victory for the Raiders here on Thursday would mean that Georgetown would need only a tie on their home ice on Friday, Feb. 27th.
Bradford are well on their way to the group finals with a pair of successive wins over Milton. BUFFALO SINKS CANADIENS 5-1 IN BANTAM GAME
Buffalo turned their heavy goalscoring guns on the Canadiens on Thursday night and chalked up a 5-1 victory. It was a regular scheduled game in the Lions Bantam League. Gary Brown paced the winners attack with two goals. Single tallies came from the sticks of Mike Cadieux, Tom Benson and Brian Madill. Tom Benson and Billy Brown also picked up assists. Harold Yake fired the lone goal for the Canadiens.
In the other contest, the Leafs edged Pittsburg 3-2. David James teamed up with Darcy forsyth to notch one tally for the Leafs. Jim Hill potted a pair, one was unassisted while the other came on a pass from Roy Perrault. Arlan Galbraith and Jim Mehaffey were the Pittsburg marksmen. Robert Mole picked up an assist on Mehaffey’s tally. LINTNER BEATS HAWKS WITH TWO GOALS
Close games were the order of the night on Monday evening in the Lions Peewee League. The Rangers and Red Wings battled to a 1-1 tie while the Bruins edged the Hawks 2-1.
Paul Lintner, one of the Bruins leading marksmen, fired both goals for his club. The two tallies were enough to edge Chicago. Barry Hiltz blinked the light on a pass from David Whittington for the Hawks lone goal.
Donald Smith hit the target for the Rangers while Blair Wagg scored the Wings only tally. Ricky Thompson turned in a fine performance for the Rangers, although he failed to score any goals. He has been selected as the all star of the week and will be presented with an All-Star hockey stick from local hardware merchant Mr. Cec Hendricks. LADIES BOWLING

The Stouffville District High School Midget basketball team kept their winning streak intact by beating Pickering College 33-22 on Feb. 18. Glenn Jackson collected a total of 10 points and turned in a fine performance. Mike Paul and Brian Wilkes each counted 8 points. Stouffville won the first game 24-23.
The Juniors didn’t fare so well. They dropped their game to Pickering 39-26. Roger Stover scored 16 pts. Despite the loss his total for the game moved him past the previous school record of 97 points set by Gord Echardt. Stover has 104 with one game to go. Ross Pattenden and John Corner each got 4 points. Pickering held a scant 24-22 edge at three-quarter time. KING CITY UPSETS MIDGETS; DROPS FROM PLAYOFFS
King City chalked up a back-door victory over Stouffville’s North York Midget entry on Friday night to oust the locals from the Ontario playoffs. A win for the homesters would have forced a sudden-death final with Beeton. It was King’s initial victory in the round-robin series. Beeton now advances in to further Provincial playoff competition. King squeezed out a 5-4 win in Friday’s all important contest.
In the game’s early minutes, it looked like an easy victory for Stouffville. It took Grant Foreman only ten seconds to blink the light on an unassisted tally. A minute later Bill Hoover and Rick Wedseltoft teamed up to give Stouffville a 2-0 advantage. Hoover parked the puck in the King cage.
Coasting along on a two goal cushion, the local entry suddenly fell apart in a disastrous second period letdown. Within the space of eight minutes, the visitors had pulled back on even terms. Brian Rice hit the target at 1:50 and John McNaughton lit the lamp at 9:l0. At 13:20, Gord Burbridge beat goalie Jackson to give the King City squad a 3-2 edge. Stouffville were held completely off the score sheet in the middle frame.
In the third period the pre sure was on Stouffville. Though they held a territorial advantage, they were continually blocked on direct goalscoring bids. Grant Foreman’s tally after only sixteen seconds had ticked by, gave the locals some relief but it was short-lived. Ralph Cooper broke free to put King put front for the second time 4-3. Larry McMullen tipped a loose puck into the twine at 7:20 to keep Stouffville’s hopes alive. Keith McDowell was credited with an assist on the equalizer. At the midway mark in the final frame, King City delivered fatal blow. Brian Rice put finishing touches to Stouffville’s playoff hopes. The homesters had numerous opportunities to score in the remaining of the game, but each was turned aside. Grant Foreman had at least four direct drives but his shots either missed the target or were blocked. In the final minute of play, coach Lennox pulled goalie Jackson from the net but the move failed to provide any additional scoring punch.

EDITORIAL STAR OF THE WEEK
This week a brand new All-Star hockey stick goes to david oldham of the Red Wings in the Lions Peewee League. On Monday evening, David teamed up with team mate Ronnie Castle to lead the Wings to a close 3-2 win over the Bruins. For his fine efforts, he was the unanimous choice for this weeks award.

Through the years, I have watched many referees and linesmen handle O.H.A. and O.M.H.A. games, both in the local arena and in out-of-town rinks. I can honestly say that none have impressed me more than the efforts of Stouffville’s own Polly Minton. He looks, skates and acts like an official who knows the business. His very manner commands attention. His services have been in constant demand throughout the district this winter.
The success of our local community league has for the most part been due to his expert handling of each and every game. In the majority of such groups, the main draw back has been extreme rowdyism which eventually erupted into free-for-all’s injuries and bad hockey publicity. Only two weeks ago such a brawl occurred in the Inter-Community League at Uxbridge.
There have been instances in cur six-team loop where a game could easily have reached the uncontrollable stage. Major, misconduct and match misconduct penalties have been handed out in rapid fashion. Players have found little satisfaction in spending ten minutes in the penalty box or a portion of a game in the dressing room. Only Minton’s iron hand has kept tempers under control.
Anyone who has watched the local official in action will realize that the class of hockey does not affect his performance on the ice. He will rule just as closely and effectively in a Peewee game as in an OHA contest. He is constantly on top of the play but never awkwardly involved in it. His work has been praised by both home and rival managements. This in itself is worthy of honourable mention in hockey’s hall of fame. He handled the two-game Pickering-Stouffville playoff series without the aid of a linesman. Pickering could not find a competent man to do the job. A referee or linesman must do a job similar to the work of a baseball or softball umpire. It’s seldom that they receive any deserving praise even when their performance is above reproach. Polly Minton need not take a back seat to any OHA referee in the business. He’s tops in my books.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. WIN ROUND OVER BOBCAYGEON 14-9
Stouffville Bantams, in the Ontario OMHA playdown, swamped Bobcaygeon 11-6 on Monday night to take the two-game series 11 to 9. The win moved the Stouffville entry into the Ontario semi-finals. Only the eastern and western winners now stand between the Stouffville team and a provincial title.
After five minutes of the first period, Stouffville took the lead and were never headed for the balance of the game. The contest was a big-scoring affair with no less than five goals being scored in the first seven minutes. The homebrews ran into two injuries. George Smith being cut over the eye for three stitches and goalie Oldham stopping a puck with his forehead in the last period. The plucky netminder retired from the game for a few minutes but returned to finish the period,apparently none the for the nasty bump.
Barry McLean Leads Stouffville in High-Scoring Win
Barry McLean was the top scorer for Stouffville, rapping home four goals for the home team—three of them in the first period. Stouffville held a 6-2 lead at the end of the opening twenty minutes. Forsyth and Miller were the other goal-getters along with McLean, with assists going to Gall, Forsyth, and McLean.
For Bobcaygeon, Nichols and Griffen notched the first-period counters. Nichols was the standout performer for the visitors all night, copping three of his team’s six goals. He is the son of a well-known hockey family, familiar to Stouffville fans for many years.
Neither team made much headway in the scoring department in the second frame. Miller added one more for Stouffville unassisted, and Nichols scored his second goal for the northerners.
Bobcaygeon made a determined comeback in the last period, getting two goals in the first four minutes from Nichols and Wray, cutting the score to 7-5. However, the Stouffville boys remained on a scoring spree and added another four for the night. Gall, Taylor, Forsyth, and McLean were the marksmen. Wray hit for the visitors’ final tally at the ten-minute mark.
Penalties were quite evenly divided: five for Stouffville and four for Bobcaygeon. The visitors’ comeback was partially subdued when they ran into a double penalty in the last period and played for a time three men to five.
Each goaltender played well. Junkin tended the net for Bobcaygeon, and Wayne Oldham for Stouffville. Oldham got off to a shaky start when the visiting team scored in the first 21 seconds and again at the four-minute mark. After that, however, he stopped pucks from every angle.
Georgetown Sweeps Clippers from OHA Playoff Semi-Finals
The hockey season came to a sudden conclusion last week for the Clippers. The local squad bowed out of the group semifinals, losing to Georgetown four games to none, with one game tied. They dropped a heartbreaker here on Thursday night 5-4 and were beaten 6-3 at Georgetown on Friday. Bradford and Georgetown now tangle for the group title.
Although the Raiders needed only a tie on Friday night to oust the Clippers, Jack Watson’s squad never stopped skating, despite trailing throughout the contest. Georgetown chalked up a 6-3 win. Dave Irons pounded a pair of nails in the Clipper coffin with two goals. Ron Dixon, Jr. Beaumont, Wally Magdy, and Gerry Ingles fired singles. Phil Nicholas, John Ross, and Lawrence Gayman were the Stouffville marksmen.
The loss of goalie Joe Carpenter was a real blow to hopes of knocking off the favoured Georgetown. He was sidelined for three games with a fractured wrist. Geo. Wilkins filled the breach, and after a shaky start, he settled down to play well in the home encounter on Thursday. A couple of “flukes” slipped past him in Friday night’s final.
A bewildered Stouffville team and equally amazed fans watched an inspired Clipper club build a 4-1 lead before fading against a goal-hungry Georgetown squad. Within five minutes, the Raiders pulled back to even terms and notched the winner at 17:45. This sensational comeback all but ended Stouffville’s hopes of extending the series past a fifth game. The Raiders finished the job the following Friday evening.
It was Stouffville, not Georgetown, that looked like the group finalists in the early stages of Thursday night’s game. The Clippers could do nothing wrong. They spotted the Raiders a one-goal lead but rallied to hold a 2-1 edge at the end of the first period. They added a pair in the second to lead 4-1. Harold Hodgson scored twice for Stouffville, with assists from Bud Lehman and Geo. Carey. At 2:18 of the second period, Bud Lehman scored on passes from Phil Nicholas and Ronnie Guy. Nicholas fired Stouffville’s fourth and final goal at 8:28.
In spite of Georgetown’s four-goal rally in the third period, the Clippers had three good chances to score the would-be winner. Harold Hodgson set up Bud Lehman for a direct drive, but goalie Rhodes batted the shot aside. Phil Nicholas had close-in drives that were smothered. Jerry Ingles, Ron Dixon, Dave Irons, and Bud Varey were the scorers for Georgetown, with Varey netting the winner.
With less than a minute left, coach Watson pulled goalie Wilkins for an extra forward, but the move failed. Wilkins turned in a good effort and could not be blamed for the loss.

Marmora Edge Bantams 6-5 in O.M.H.A Opener
A fluke third-period goal at the thirteen-minute mark gave Marmora Bantams a tight 6-5 win over Stouffville in the opening game of the Ontario Minor Hockey playoff semi-finals. The series swings back to Stouffville this Thursday for the second game at 8:30 p.m. If necessary, a third game will be played in Marmora on Saturday, March 21st.
Teams Evenly Matched
On the night’s play, there was little to choose between the teams. Marmora held a decided edge in the first period, but Stouffville roared back in the dying minutes to overcome a two-goal lead. Trailing 5-4 going into the final frame, the local squad rallied again to square the count. A fluke goal fired through a maze of sticks and legs at 13:20 proved to be the winner.
Marmora has a standout performer in Sandy Fraser, a hard-skating, hard-shooting rearguard. Sporting No. 7 on his white sweater, Fraser unleashed three explosive shots into the Stouffville net. Goalie Wayne Oldham had no chance on any of Fraser’s drives. In the latter stages, Stouffville defence slowed some of Fraser’s rink-long sprints.
McLean Was Tops
Barry McLean was Stouffville’s best. The right-winger turned in a torrid two-way effort and fired a hat trick. Linemate Jim Miller potted a pair. Forsyth had only one good chance, his board-breaking shot going ten feet over the net. McLean’s first goal was flipped in with the goalie out of position. His tying shot came from a difficult angle, and he evened the count again in the second period, scoring his own rebound while teammate Geo. Smith was in the penalty box.
Gels First Goal
Stouffville drew first blood at the five-minute mark with Jim Miller scoring while Fraser of Marmora was off for tripping. Marmora responded with three straight goals, two by Fraser and one by Frank Bobyk. McLean spearheaded Stouffville’s attack to even the score. Marmora outscored the locals 2-1 in the second period (Fraser and Garry McInroy), with McLean scoring for Stouffville. Jim Miller made it 5-5 at 1:30 of the final frame before Barry Mantle drove the winner past Oldham.
Wayne Oldham in the Stouffville net turned aside 21 shots, while Doug Howden of Marmora blocked 19. Oldham’s best saves came in the third period, including sprawling saves on dangerous rushes. He was pulled for an extra forward in the final stages, but the move failed to produce the equalizer. Close to 100 fans attended.
The game was played on good ice, slightly smaller than Stouffville’s rink. The arena has a large time clock but no scoreboard. Player rooms are at the front of the rink. Lighting is poor, and the arena is also used for curling. Marmora has about 1,500 residents and is located 26 miles east of Peterborough, between Havelock and Madoc, approximately 110 miles from Stouffville.
Hornets Blank Canadiens 4-0
The Hornets chalked up a 4-0 victory over the Canadiens on Thursday evening in Lions Bantam League competition. Arlan Galbraith, Eric Neilson, and Robert Mole paced the winners. Galbraith and Neilson each scored two goals and picked up one assist. Mole collected two assists.
Buffalo 2, Leafs 1
Jack VanKoughnet teamed up with Doug DeLamatter to score the winning goal as Buffalo edged the Maple Leafs 2-1. Gary Brown scored once, while Roy Perrault fired the lone Leaf tally on a pass from Jim Hill.

Editorial: Have Yet to Prove It to Me
Stouffville has always had a reputation as a good hockey town. Every spring, neighbouring newspapers report that the Stouffville Arena is one of the few artificial ice rinks operating on a paying basis. They credit these reports, in part, to fan support for individual teams. This fact has yet to be proven to me.
I agree that Stouffville, for its size, has as many, if not more, entries in OMHA and OHA leagues than other towns, but numbers of teams alone do not set us apart as a good hockey centre. Fan support is the real measure. Not since the days of the Markham-Stouffville feuds has a rafter-filled rink been common.
There was an upsurge of interest when the Clippers captured the Senior ‘B’ title seven years ago, but spectator support has declined since. Some argue this is a countrywide trend. I disagree. Brooklin and Whitby, for example, played before a full house in their Junior ‘C’ semifinals, attracting around 2,000 spectators. The Clippers made their season farewell before fewer than 400 fans. Rural arenas, such as Woodville, can draw far larger crowds.
Over the past half-dozen years, excuses for the lack of hockey interest in Stouffville have included television and calibre of play. Personally, I think the real reason is us—we just aren’t interested. We
just can’t be bothered. Don’t blame it all on that 21 inch living-room screen. BANTAMS EVEN SEMI-FINAL SERIES WITH MARMORA
Hal Gibson’s secret weapon is no longer a secret. It was unleashed with explosive results on Thursday night. Sparked by Roger Forsyth’s torrid five-goal effort, the Lions’ Bantam team rocketed to a 10-6 victory over Marmora. The deciding game will be staged in Marmora on Saturday night. The series’ winner will advance into the Provincial finals. Shots Count: Roger Forsyth’s hard shot noticeably absent in the series opener was unleashed against a shaky Doug Howden in the Marmora net. Stouffville had only 21 shots on the visitor’s goal. Howden blocked 11. The first-string centre counted three tallies in the first period, one in the second and one in the third. Barry McLean netted three and linemate Jim Miller fired one. Bill Payne, one of Claremont’s contributions to the club, sank the game’s final goal. Tables Turned: In the game at Marmora and in the early stages of the return tilt, Sandy Fraser was the most feared player on the ice. Every time he grabbed the puck in his own zone, he became a potential goalscoring threat. Though coach Gibson camped a checker on his tail in an effort to halt his rink-long rushes, his speed far outclassed all attempts to block him. As Forsyth continued to pot goal after goal, Fraser’s offensive tactics were abandoned for a defensive role. Stouffville fired three unanswered tallies in the final frame. Oldham Good: Stouffville netminder Wayne Oldham turned in a fine performance in the local’s cage. He blocked a total of 32. His finest stop came on an ice-long dash by Fraser early in the third period with Stouffville out in front 7-6. He slid out to smother the puck before the lethal rearguard could get his shot away. In the dying minutes of the final frame he made an equally good save on Marmora’s Danny Shannon. Finest For Payne: Hard-working Billy Payne fired his first playoff goal. Centering a second-string trio of Ross Brown and Bill Corner, he flipped in a loose puck for Stouffville’s tenth and last tally. He came within inches of scoring again but his drive caromed off the post. Coach Gibson has also used him on power plays. Frank Taylor and Francis Haylow helped kill off penalties. Defenceman Garry Gall played well on the Stouffville defence. He took some steam out of Fraser’s rink-long rushes with some well-timed body checks. Stage Rally: Stouffville found themselves on the short end of a 3-0 score after only seven minutes of the first period had been played. Sandy Fraser, Herb Parkin and Paul Doyle were the marksmen. Roger Forsyth took over at the midway mark and rapped three sizzling shots into the Marmora net. Barry McLean notched one. Stouffville held a 4-3 edge as the teams moved into the second frame. At 4:32, McLean put the locals out front 5-3 and it appeared likely that they had the victory in the bag. Marmora had other plans. Two goals by Fraser and one by Barry Mantle gave the northern squad the lead for the second time. Jim Miller whipped a rising shot into the top corner to even the count and Roger Forsyth sank what proved to be the winner at 18:10. Barry McLean, Roger Forsyth and Bill Payne hit the target in that order to sew up the victory. Fan Support: It is expected that a large crowd of hometown fans will make the 110-mile trip to Marmora on Saturday night. About 200 spectators viewed the contest here on Thursday. Coach Gibson expects to ice a full roster for the all-important game.

HELEN GAYMAN AND RON BRILLINGER SR. FILED DAY CHAMPS
Helen Gayman and Ron Brillinger are the new senior champions at the Stouffville District High School. Both competitors rolled to rather easy individual victories at the annual Field Day Meet held on Monday. Miss Gayman collected a total of five firsts for twenty-five points. Brillinger topped four events for twenty points. Helen was intermediate champion last year. Roger Stover captured the Intermediate honours and Glenn Jackson was the Junior champ. Janet Hathaway topped her class in the Intermediate group and Dianne Nelson is the new Junior champ. The three male athletes are worthy holders of the senior, intermediate and junior titles. Brillinger, Stover and Jackson have carried the school colours in numerous track and field events this spring. Ron Brillinger topped his class in the pole vault, the running broad jump, the 440 yds. and the 100 yds. Lorne Grove was the senior runner-up with 18 points. Dave Hisey and Bill Sanders finished in that order. Roger Stover piled up a four-point lead over his nearest Intermediate rival, Hilyard Manuel. Stover topped the field in the hop, step and jump, the running broad jump, the 880 yds. and the 100 yds. John Corner placed third with eight points. Glenn Jackson carried off 3 firsts and a second. Lloyd Graves was four points back with 14. Jim Knox and Ernie Miller were tied for the third spot, each with 10. Other individual events winners were Don Jackson (Sr. High Jump), Joe Olzevski (Int. shot put), Allan Boyd (Int. 440 yds), Murray Miller (Int. 220 yds), R. Montgomery (Jr. shot put), Warren Hendricks (Jr. 440 yd.) In the Senior girls events, Helen Gayman was almost alone in the field. She rolled up 25 points. Her closest was Louise Payne with 10, Mary Harwood placed third. Faye Byer, last year’s champion, bowed to Janet Hathaway in the Intermediate class. Barb Miller was third. Dianne Nelson had little trouble in the Junior class. She bested her closest rival Marilyn Houck by 4 1/2 points.

He informed the Tribune that many of last records were broken by junior, intermediate, and senior entrants. Last year’s champions were John Little and Caroline Ogilvy (Sr.); Norm Hendricks and Helen Gayman (Int.); Roger Stover and Faye Byer (Jr.).

EDITORIAL JUST KEEPS GOING
Jack Watson, Stouffville’s veteran athlete, is never to grow too old for competitive sport. On the contrary, it would appear that the local resident continues to improve with age. He has always been tagged as one of the best softball third basemen to don a pair of spikes, and signs indicate that he is headed for another good season with Markham. Jack Watson is truly a great competitor. It was he and he alone that kept the faint flicker of softball fire burning here until it became financially impossible to carry on. He has since joined the roster of the Markham Aces and quickly become a regular member of the team. He is blessed with split-second reflexes. It makes a difference whether the batter elects to bunt or blast a rifle shot line drive; in the majority of cases it is merely an out for the agile Watson. He is equally fast on the base paths. To date he is one of the team’s top batsmen. In three games he has hit safely in every contest. Enthusiastic sportsmen of Jack Watson’s calibre are not easily found. He’s an all-round, all-season performer. Although in hockey, the same story was true and only the fear of a serious injury forced him off the active list. Although he has always been keenly interested in both hockey and baseball, the game of softball still remains his first love. MERCHANTS AID GIRLS SOFTBALL ORGANISATION
Local Stouffville merchants have rallied to the support of the girls’ softball team. Mr. Doug “Peg” O’Neill informed the Tribune that almost every party he contacted contributed generously to the pre-season drive for much-needed funds. Coach O’Neill said the money will be used to purchase new uniforms, balls, and bats for the entry. They are entered in a strong East York League comprising a 5-team group. Other clubs are East York (2), Richmond Hill and Whitby. Merchants who rallied to the support of the Stouffville team were Neil Patrick Motors; Mickey Hunt Sunoco; Edgeville Motors; Hamilton Auto Supply; Hal’s Snack Bar; Don Davis Clothing; Ted’s Men’s Wear; Betz Pools Ltd.; Hendricks’ Hardware; Wagg’s Jewelry; Crest Hardware; Weldon Shoes; Stouffville Sand and Gravel; Kenneth Laushway, Insurance and O’Neill’s Furniture.

LOCAL GOLFER RUNNER-UP IN TOURNAMENT
Ken Laushway, local businessman and councillor, came close to being a first-place winner in the Eager Beaver Ontario tournament, held recently at the Uplands Course. As it was, he finished in second place for players in his class and came home with a fine new camera and a cup. Ken had an exceptionally good game going and would have topped his field but for an unfortunate drive on the 18th hole. His tee shot was well away but he had the misfortune to come to rest up against a tree on the fairway and it was impossible to play. The stroke cost him a two-stroke penalty. To top it off, his nearest opponent sank a long 30-ft putt on the 18th green to win out by one stroke. Ken finished with a net score of 70 while the first place went to a 69 score. Picture SPORTS EDITOR — A TYPE OF SUPER HUMAN CREATURE
A sports editor in Stouffville is supposedly some sort of superhuman creature who can attend three different ball games in three separate areas in one single evening; can write a headline story from a score book filled only with “chicken scratches”; can give an accurate account of a game using only two names—the pitcher and the catcher; can spend time phoning the homes of players and coaches in an effort to scrape together three inches of type; can drive to ball games in Brooklin (Mt. Zion), Claremont (community league) and Stouffville (town league) every Monday evening and also cover a four-hour council session. An impossible task, you say? Yes it is, but try and prove it to certain sports promoters in Stouffville. Last week, your writer was severely criticised for his failure to provide news coverage of events surrounding Stouffville’s newly-organised Town Baseball League. A lengthy verbal explanation of the situation failed to satisfy the mind of the former complainant. It was interesting to note, however, that on a previous request from the Tribune for information on the Monday night’s activities, none was provided. To date only Messrs. Bob Hassard and Les Clarke have taken the time and trouble to provide any post-game statistics on the league’s operation. We agree that adequate sports coverage is a very important part of any weekly paper. We agree that when possible, all reports should be obtained firsthand by the writer. We feel, however, that a little cooperation from the promoters in providing accurate information when the writer is unavoidably absent is very little to expect. It is possible that local sports personnel in Stouffville have been “spoon fed” too long. The Tribune has been complimented many times both locally and in countrywide newspaper circles for its excellent sports page, but to keep this high standard we must have the fullest cooperation and assistance of those who are the most anxious for the publicity. JEAN HALSTEAD STOPS WHITBY WITH AMAZING COMEBACK PERFORMANCE
Jean Halstead, a fine softball hurler with Stouffville entries a decade ago, made an amazing comeback on Wednesday evening as she stopped Whitby with a ten-hit performance. Her mound efforts were supported by a potent batting attack as Stouffville racked up a 19-13 victory over the Ontario County Town girls. In their home and home opener, Whitby took the first game by a score of 25-18. The veteran twirler experienced a rather shaky start as the visitors rolled up a total of nine runs in the first two innings. The early-game spree was due mainly to errors as they collected only five hits. Stouffville committed five bobbles. Two hits and an error pushed two Stouffville runners across in the first inning. Marion Gayman belted a triple. Whitby lengthened their lead in the 6th with a run, but Carol Perrow’s triple was nullified when she was tagged at the plate. Stouffville never stopped trying. They pulled ahead in the bottom half of the sixth and although Whitby threatened in the seventh, they could not overtake the run-hungry local squad. Joan Nicholson was the loser for Whitby. She was clipped 12 runs and 14 hits in five innings. Irene Kehoe took over in relief. She allowed 7 runs and 10 hits in three innings. Marion Gayman set the pace at the plate for Stouffville. She hammered out five hits in six trips. One was a long-ball triple. She was credited with four runs batted in. Audrey Murison collected four hits. Gwenn Kennedy and Doreen Jarvis had three safeties. Lorraine Holdsworth and Mavis Trunk each bagged a pair. Jean Halstead worked the entire nine innings. She allowed only ten hits over the distance. Five of these safeties came in the first and second innings. The entire club settled down for the remaining seven stanzas and played errorless ball. Whitby committed a total of 8 miscues. YVETTE MALLOY JUNIOR FIELD DAY WITH 5 FIRSTS
Ten-year-old Yvette Malloy, a grade five pupil at the Summit View Public School, captured the Junior Girls’ Field Day title with a sparkling performance on Monday. Both schools joined together and all events were completed by four o’clock. The small but athletic champion collected a total of five firsts and one third for 26 points. It was the highest number of points obtained by any single girl in the competition. Her name will be inscribed on the Women’s Institute Trophy. Past winners have been Pat Toole and Donna Knox. Yvette placed first in every event with the exception of the high jump. She was beaten by Lois Hisey and Norma Mantle. Raymond Rioux captured the Jr. Boys’ championship. The ten-year-old Orchard Park pupil collected a total of 19 points. This figure comprised two firsts and three seconds. His name will be placed on a plaque on the Village of Stouffville Trophy. Previous winners have been Jim Malloy, Jim Hill and Randy Mole. In the Intermediate division, a familiar competitor, Pat Toole was once again the top girl. It marked the second successive year she has won the award. She was also the Junior champ two seasons back. The 12-year-old student collected 18 points with 2 firsts, 2 seconds and 2 thirds. Her name will again be inscribed on the Lions Club trophy. She is a pupil at the Summit View School. Other winners in past years have been Elaine Forsyth and Marion Byer. Jim Hill, an equally familiar prize winner, was the Intermediate Boys’ champion. A pupil of the Summit View School, he rolled up a total of 30 points, with 4 firsts, 3 seconds and 1 third. His name will appear on the Ladies Auxiliary Trophy. Previous winners were Norm Tindall, Larry Spang and Robt. Mole. Marjory Sobol captured the Senior Girls’ title. The fourteen-year-old pupil of Summit View School posted a total of twenty points. She captured 3 firsts, 1 second and 2 thirds. Her name will be inscribed on the Business and Professional Women’s Trophy. Previous winners were Shirley Symes and Clara Mullen (2). Fifteen-year-old Richard Hensman topped all competitors both in the Senior Boys’ division and the entire meet. He rolled up a total of 33 points with 5 firsts, 2 seconds and 2 thirds. The grade 8 student attends the Summit View School. His name will appear on the plaque of the Home and School Club Trophy along with former athletes Gary Byer, Peter Salmon and Glenn Jackson. Competition between the two Stouffville schools was quite keen. Summit View gained a majority in total points. All events were run off in orderly fashion and the soft drink stand did a land-office business. A public address system, provided by Mr. E. Carruthers, kept the pupils posted on the results of various events. Mr. Lorne Boadway made all official announcements and the results were tabulated as they were received.

STOUFFVILLE SET TOP DOUBLES’ TOURNAMENT
Messrs. and Geo Middletown teamed up to win the Men’s Doubles lawn bowling tournament held on the Stouffville greens last week. It was the first tourney of the season here. Another Stouffville twosome finished high for two wins. Elmer Daniels and Elmer Farthing were in the runners-up position. Mr. Jack Burns and partner from Markham were high for one win. Twelve sets took part in the tournament. Representatives were present from Aurora, Newmarket, Markham and Stouffville. On Tuesday evening, the newly renovated clubhouse was officially opened. The structure has been completely renovated with new floors and washroom facilities. It has been painted inside and out. RICHARD HENSMAN WINS TRACK AND FIELD TOURNAMENT
Fifteen-year-old Richard Hensman, a Grade 8 student at Summit View Public School, Stouffville, topped all competitors at the recent track and field meet held last week. The senior champion collected a total of 33 points, comprising 5 firsts, 2 seconds and 2 thirds. His name will be inscribed on the Home and School Trophy along with previous winners Gary Byer, Peter Salmon and Glenn Jackson. GIRLS HUMBLE RICHMOND HILL 38-6 IN SOFTBALL
An injury-riddled Stouffville team hobbled to a one-sided 38-6 victory over Richmond Hill in a scheduled East York Ladies’ League contest on Wednesday night of last week. It was staged under the lights in the Stouffville Park. It was the second meeting between the two clubs. They battled to an 18-18 tie in their home and home opener. Stouffville now has a record of two wins, one loss and a tie. Play Despite Injuries: Three regular players took part in the game in spite of injuries. Doreen Jarvis, Jean Halstead and Marion Gayman turned in fine performances despite their handicaps. A request for a runner to replace the ailing Marion Gayman was rejected by the coach of the Yonge Street squad. To add to Asst. Coach Pilkey’s woes, centrefield star Gwenn Kennedy suffered a badly sprained ankle when she attempted to slide under a tag at third base. She watched the remainder of the contest from the sidelines. Throws 6-Hitter: Jean Halstead chalked up her second straight victory on the Stouffville mound. She twirled a nifty six-hitter. She held the visitors hitless in the third, fourth and fifth innings. She weakened slightly in the sixth and allowed two singles and a double. A base on balls and an error pushed four runners across. The Hill counted single runs in the second and third. The Stouffville righthander whiffed three batsmen. She walked only two. The local “comeback kid” was never in any serious trouble. She retired the side in one, two and three order in the fourth and fifth innings. She aided her own cause by whacking out four single-base blows in six times at bat. Thirteen Errors: Richmond Hill displayed a sieve-like defence. They dropped routine fly balls and bobbled slow ground ball rollers. In five innings they committed a total of 13 errors. In desperation, the coach attempted to close the gaps in his infield and outfield ranks but the replacements showed little improvement over the starters. Pitchers Carol Seaser and Dorothy King were hit freely. Stouffville’s power-packed bagged a total of 26 hits. They belted 8 safeties in the fourth inning when a total of 20 players paraded to the plate. They stored 16 runs. Two Home Runs: Lenore Sykes and Doreen Jarvis belted circuit clouts. Lenore’s blow was a grand slam home run. Gwenn Kennedy and Marion Gayman romped home on Doreen’s tour-base smash. Ila Redshaw, Claremont’s contribution to the club, whacked a triple. Lavar Machon and Donna Seebeck poked out doubles. Gwenn Kennedy rapped three singles. Doreen Jarvis showed potent plate power in addition to her round-tripper; she connected for three single-base blows. Dianne McLean bagged the only extra-base hit for Richmond Hill. She doubled in the sixth but was left stranded. Well Handled: Eric Pilkey called the balls and strikes behind the plate and did a fine job. He failed to rouse a single argument throughout the entire contest. On Thursday evening of this week, Stouffville travels to East York for a game with the Kiwanis entry. CARDS BEAT MARKHAM 3-1
Harry Barber and Glenn Jackson teamed up to pitch Stouffville Cardinals to a 3-1 victory over Markham Intermediate in an exhibition game in the Memorial Park on Friday night. Mike Pettit went the distance on the mound for the visitors. A circuit clout by Uxbridge star, Garry Houck, paced the Stouffville win. Markham committed a number of errors. Stouffville coach, Don Haynes, worked behind the plate for Markham. Houck completed the Stouffville battery. The Markham entry may be bolstered with the addition of Chuck Parsons, Ross Madill and Murray Stewart.

GIRLS TROUNCE E. YORK 23-3; D. JARVIS CLOUTS 3-RUN HOMER
Stouffville catcher, Doreen Jarvis, continues to belt balls to all corners of the park. On Wednesday night, the agile battery mate kept her home run streak alive by socking a run circuit clout into deep left field. The four-base drive pushed frontrunners, Audrey Murison and Mavis Trunk across the plate. Stouffville went on to crush East York Kiwanis 23-3 in a scheduled league contest. The game was halted at the end of the fifth inning. Doreen Jarvis and Marion Cayman enjoyed a field day at the plate for Stouffville. They pounced on the offerings of two East York pitchers and smashed out a total of eight hits. Both players each bagged three singles and a home run in five times at bat. Mavis Trunk was again parked on base when Marion Cayman unleashed her circuit blow. Leadoff batter, Audrey Murison raised her average with three hits. Mavis Trunk, Ila Redshaw, Loraine Holdsworth and Jean Pipher each contributed two safeties. Donna Seebeck, Joyce Roberts and pinch-hitter Lenore Loyst had one hit apiece. Claremont’s Ila Redshaw rapidly making her presence known both to her team and to the rest of the league. On Wednesday night, she belted three long balls. One clout was hauled down in deep centrefield. She tagged a double in the first inning and slammed a triple in the fifth. In the fourth, she drove a liner that was gloved by the first baseman. Infield speedster, Mavis Trunk beat out a neat bunt single in the third. She completed a fine play in the second when she grabbed a line drive shot from the bat of Brenda Woodhouse. Jean Halstead had little trouble with the East York opposition. She held the visitors to five hits. She was given fine support both in the field and at the plate. She aided her own cause by banging out a pair of single-base blows. Collectively Stouffville counted a total of 22 hits. LAURIE TEAM QUITS GAME: UMPIRE ASSAULTED BY PLAYER
Eckardt Slams 3-Run Homer A clowning Toronto Junior team suddenly turned sour in the dying innings of an exhibition baseball game with the Stouffville Cardinals on Tuesday night and walked off the diamond. Stouffville were at bat in the bottom half of the 8th inning when the fireworks erupted in a disgraceful exhibition of unsportsmanlike conduct. The flareup was similar to the mid-game episode with Agincourt two years ago. This time, however, no Stouffville players or spectators were involved. The visitors, Doug Laurie Jrs. held a tight 8-77 lead when the contest came to a sudden halt. Catcher Jim Lightfoot was the main centre of attraction. He was ejected from the game by plate umpire Len Buckland when he loudly protested two calls made by the official.
Hurls Abuse and Equipment The Leaside catcher unleashed a volley of verbal abuse at umpire Buckland when waved out of the game after throwing the ball at the official. He elected to toss each piece of equipment in the general direction of the well-padded Buckland. When finally restrained by other more genial members of the club, he informed his coach that his name could be scratched from the roster. Four Leaside players apologized for the incident. The coach argued that with the ousting of his catcher, he could no longer field a full team. One other player was ejected in the seventh inning.
Contrasting Moods In the early innings, the Toronto boys acted like participants in a three-ring circus. They clowned in the field, on the base paths and at the plate. When starter, Jerry Wilks, was knocked out of the box in the fourth inning after mowing down his rivals in order in the first, the entire complexion of the game took a sudden sober turn. A seven run outburst by Leaside in the sixth gave reliefer, Dave Wright a good margin to work on. He was yanked in the eighth in favour of a southpaw twirler and a base on balls put the would be tying run on first base. He never completed the circuit, for eight Toronto players followed their ousted catcher to the showers. A good crowd watched the pre-playoff exhibition tilt.
Belts Home Run Blast The feature hit of the game was a giant home run blast from the big bat of Stouffville’s Gord Eckardt. The four base clout came in the second inning with teammates Bob Stover and Harry Barber parked on the sacks. Stover poked out a single and Barber followed through with a ringing double into centrefield. This set the stage for Eckardt’s drive. It cleared the centrefield fence by six feet and landed on the roadway that skirts the park. The four-bagger put the Cards out front 3-1. They held this advantage until the seventh when two hits, two walks and three errors put the Toronto crew ahead 8-4. Stouffville roared back with three tallies in their half of the seventh but were robbed of a chance in the eighth.
Barber Hurls and Hits Harry Barber was in mid-season form. Although clipped for 11 hits, he held the opposition off the score sheet for six of their eight innings. He struck out four and walked four. In addition to his hurling prowess, he banged out three hits in four times at bat. He bagged doubles in the second and seventh and a single in the sixth. Rookie Roger Todd belted a pair of singles. Bob Stover and Lynn Taylor each had one. GIRLS BEAT E. YORK, LOSE TO WHITBY
Stouffville girls chalked up a win and absorbed a loss in two scheduled games in the East York circuit during the past week. After humiliating East York Kiwanis here on Wednesday night 23-3, the local squad invaded the urbanites home grounds on Thursday and eked out a tight 7-6 win over the East York Billetts. Natalie Belch and Claremont’s Lillian McGreggor shared the mound chores for the winners. On Tuesday evening of this week, Whitby took the locals into camp and scored a 16-8 win. The return tilt was staged here under the lights on July 15th. The Stouffville entry will be strengthened when they make their debut into the Provincial playoffs after August 15. Joan Raymer has returned to home town soil and will bolster the mound staff. Ace centrefielder Gwenn Kennedy, will also be back along with a number of other key performers. It is likely that their first opposition will be Whitby, their toughest competitor to date this season.

Picture UPSETS THE EXPERTS
A left-handed golfer is considered to be at a definite disadvantage when it comes to dropping the ball near the hole. On a long-range shot Mr. Ted Topping, Fairview Ave., Stouffville, upset the experts on Saturday afternoon at the Markham Golf and Country Club, when he drove a 185 yard shot directly into the cup. It is the first hole-in-one to be chalked up at the local course. His feat will be recognized by a number of firms and he will receive a number of valuable awards among which will be a golf ball mounted on a plaque. Mr. Topping took up the sport of golf in 1948 but his hole-in-one effort on Saturday is the greatest thrill he has experienced on the greens to date. Picture FIRST MONEY BINGO SWELLS HOCKEY FUND
Over $400 was realized on Wednesday night of last week in the first money bingo sponsored by the newly-organized Minor Hockey Executive operating within the Stouffville Lions Club. An estimated 500 persons attended the fundraising campaign and over 200 remained until the end to compete for the $50.00 cash prize. It was won by Mr. Geo. Motnar, a cottager at Musselman’s Lake. Another money bingo has been planned for Wednesday evening, Aug. 12th. All proceeds will be used to promote minor hockey in Stouffville next winter. The Lions Club has approved a $1000 grant toward the program. Both members of the club and the Minor Hockey executive assisted in the successful operation of the night’s activities. H. NOBLE AND S. SLACK GAIN FAST IN LOCAL HORSESHOE TOURNEY
Last week Messrs. Harry Noble and Stan Slack held down a third place position in an inter-member tournament in the Stouffville Horseshoe Club. According to the latest tally filed by Mr. Wm. Grove, the twosome are now in the runners-up spot, only 18 points behind the leaders, Messrs. Walt Pascoe and Cliff Pipher. They top the group for the second straight week with a score of 594. The Noble and Slack combination have racked up a point total of 577. Chas. Jackson and Dave Cliff continue on the down-grade and are now in the number 3 slot. They have a 549 total. Other members’ totals are as follows: Murray Stewart and Gerald Noble — 498; Robt. Sellers and Walt Slack — 485; Chas. Grove and Bill Grove — 483; Geo. Stark and Ed. Brownsberger — 467; Harv Clendenning and Elmer Orr — 438; Giles Tran and Archie Stewart — 431; Chas. Preston and Walt Vague — 408. GIRLS SWAMPED BY WHITBY 23-1; COMMIT NINE ERRORS
Whitby girls staggered Stouffville with their second straight one-sided win in a row as they trounced the homesters 23-1 under the lights here on Wednesday night of last week. The county town crew showed power in every department. They whacked out a total of 22 hits, five of these were extra-base blows. Although the visitors committed five errors, only one bobble resulted in a run. Stouffville were able to get few runners on base. The homesters made nine miscues. Jean Halstead started on the mound for Stouffville and worked eight complete innings. She was clipped for 17 hits. Joan Raymer took over in relief and allowed five safeties. Irene Ke-hoe went the distance on the hill for Whitby. She twirled a fine 7-hitter. Although Whitby jumped into a three run lead in the first inning, it appeared likely that Stouffville might keep pace with their rivals, when Audrey Murison led off with a ringing double. She failed to complete the circuit when Ila Redshaw, Donna Seebeck and Marion Gayman were retired in order. That was the story of the game. Stouffville couldn’t bunch together any potential hitting power to close the gap. Joyce Roberts and Jean Halstead were the only two players to bag a pair of safeties. Donna Seebeck, Mavis Trunk and Doreen Jarvis poked out the other single-base blows. The homesters lacked the spirit and drive that has been noticeable at other league contests. The arrival of catcher Doreen Jarvis seemed to put some spark in their attack but the damage had been done. Gwenn Campbell and Isobel Eyman paced Whitby’s plate attack. Campbell belted five singles and a double. Eyman socked two singles, a double and a triple.
ARENA BOARD EXECUTIVE see pictures MRS. R. LAUSHWAY IN PROVINCIAL BOWLING SEMI-FINALS
Stouffville ladies continue to keep the town in the lawn-bowling spotlight as they annually compete with Ontario’s best for Provincial honours. This summer, it is Mrs. Reta Laushway who is carrying the banner for the local club. She has advanced into the Ontario semifinals in the singles class and will play at Kingston on Thursday, Aug. 6th. If successful, she will represent Eastern Ontario in the Provincial singles championships to be played in Brockville. Mrs. Laushway earned the right to compete in the Kingston competition by defeating Mrs. Palmer of Tottenham at Newmarket on Tuesday. She has previously won a Provincial championship in the ladies’ doubles and trebles competition. The only Stouffville lady to sweep all three Ontario titles was Mrs. Eleanor Crossen. On Thursday, July 9th, Eleanor Crossen, Lena Hoover and Jean Baston were high with three wins in the Simpson Trophy competition run off at the Stouffville green. High for two wins were Reta Laushway, Nellie Klinck and Doris Farthing. On Tuesday, July 14th, a ladies trebles tourney was held at Claremont High. With two wins were Hattie Storey, Eva Boadway and Agnes Wallace. High for one win were Eleanor Crossen, Dorothy Wagg and Rena Ratcliff.

Picture EDITORIAL HOCKEY ORGANIZATION WAS NEEDED HERE
The recently organized minor hockey committee which as I understand it, operates within and in cooperation with the Stouffville Lions Club, is something that has been needed here for years. The Lions have been the prime promoters of minor hockey in Stouffville for almost a decade and it is our hope that they will continue to take a personal and financial interest in the scheme. We have felt, however, that the winter project has been a severe drain on the Club’s funds and yearly the sports committee has had to ask for additional help to keep their books out of the red. Although your writer was not selected as a member of this newly-formed group of hockey promoters, we are wholly and sincerely behind its campaign for funds. Their first project, a money bingo, was a huge success. Another is planned for August 12th. We hope it is equally successful. Many hands make light work and this organization is determined to prove this fact. We feel that the results of their midsummer labours will be exemplified on the arena ice lanes next winter. NOBLE, SLACK, TOP LOCAL HORSESHOE TOURNAMENT
It appears likely that Messrs. Harry Noble and Stan Slack have definite hopes of hanging onto the top position in the current inter-team tournament of the Stouffville Horseshoe Club. According to the most recent records, the local twosome have knocked Messrs. Walt Pascoe and Cliff Pipher out of the top spot. Two weeks ago they were down in the third place position. The Noble-Slack combination have rolled up a total of 754 points; they lead Messrs. Pascoe and Pipher by a scant 9 points; they now have 745 points. Charlie Jackson and Dave Ratcliff are solidly entrenched on the third rung with 712 points. The positions of the other competitors are as follows: Robert Sellers and Walt Slack — 648; Chas. Grove and Wm. Grove — 632; Geo. Stark and Ed. Brownsberger — 619; Murray Stewart and Gerald Noble — 598; Harv. Clendenning and Elmer Orr — 566; Giles Tran and Archie Stewart — 543; Charles Preston and Walt Vague — 408. In the most recent games, Mr. Geo. Stark has been on holidays. His position has been ably filled by Mr. Carl Sellers. Walter Vague has been on the injured list following a recent accident and his team was forced to default their game. He expects to rejoin partner Chas. Preston within a couple of weeks. LOCAL GIRLS BELT NEWMARKET 23-3; MURISON SPARKS ATTACK
Leadoff batter, Audrey Murison should have been batting the cleanup position on Wednesday night. Pacing the Stouffville plate attack, the Cedar Grove third-sacker belted singles in six trips as the homesters humbled Richmond Hill by a score of 23-3. The seven inning contest was a merry-go-round of hits, runs and errors. Stouffville batted completely around the order in the first and sixth innings. They chalked up a 7-1 lead in the first and never were headed. Only in the third inning were the local ladies held off the score sheet. Two runners were left stranded when Donna Seebeck was a strikeout victim. A pair of pitchers failed to halt Audrey Murison’s plate attack. Only in the fifth was she retired on a pop-up to the pitcher. In spite of her torrid performance she counted only two of the team’s 23 tallies. She was marooned in the first, second, sixth and seventh. Marion Gayman, Lenore Loyst, Joyce Roberts, Mavis Trunk and Joan Raymer each whacked out a pair of singles. Doreen Jarvis and Ila Redshaw poked out the other single safeties.
Joan Raymer is rapidly rounding into midseason form. She twirled the seven inning route and limited the Yonge St. squad to seven hits. She walked only one batter. Helen Vine touched her for a fifth inning double and a single in the third. Esther Bell bagged a pair of singles. Ruth Foster, Mary Sanderson and Donna King accounted for the other hits. The visitors committed a total of 8 errors. Stouffville had only one fumble. Donna Seebeck appeared weak at the plate but turned in a potent performance at short stop. She grabbed two line drive shots from the bats of Marg Bain in the sixth and again on a drive by Helen Vine in the seventh. She was the only player in the lineup who failed to get a hit. Doreen Jarvis, after tearing the cover off the ball in previous home encounters, was able to salvage only one hit in Wednesday’s tilt. Joyce Roberts, never noted for her blinding speed on the base paths, laid down a perfect drag bunt in the seventh and beat it out for a hit. On Wednesday, Aug. 5th, the first place Whitby club will be the visitors here. LOCAL “LEFTHANDERS WIN AWARDS IN GOLF TOURNEY
Three Stouffville men among 156 players who competed in the Ontario championship golf at the Islington Golf and Country Club on Friday July 24th. Messrs. Ted Topping, Ken Laushway and Lorne Boadway matched their skills against rival port-siders from many parts of the province. Two of the eighteen prizes were brought home to Stouffville. Ted Topping and Lorne Boadway were entered in ‘C’ flight. This class was for players with handicaps from 21-36. Ted posted a 93 for the third low score in his flight. He was winner of a handsome golf bag. Lorne had a score of 112. Kenneth Laushway was entered in ‘B’ flight. This class was for players with a handicap ranging from 10 to 20. His gross score was 86, third lowest in his flight. He posted a net 70. The tournament is sponsored by the Ontario Golf Association. Six of the eighteen prizes went to members of the Whitevale Club.
Pretty fifteen year old Ann Slack, is a member of the permanent lifeguard staff at the Stouffville Community swimming pool. Although small in stature she is an agile swimmer and possesses a keen knowledge of all up-to-date life saving methods. The current heat wave has attracted large crowds of both adults and children to the pool daily to cool off.

HIS FIRST HOLE-IN-ONE
Mr. Ken Laushway, possibly Stouffville’s most active golfer scored the second hole-in-one to be chalked up at the Markham Golf & Country Club. Golfer Laushway’s feat was performed on the par 3 eighth hole, 185 yds. He dropped the ball with a five iron. This is the second hole-in-one to be scored on the new course. Only a couple of weeks ago Mr. Ted Topping of Stouffville made a hole-in-one on the same 8th green using the same iron. Both Mr. Topping and Mr. Laushway are left-handers. Mr. Laushway got his big one Monday afternoon while playing in a foursome with Mrs. Laushway and Mr. and Mrs. C. Nolan. Another foursome from Toronto were standing quite near the green and witnessed the feat. HARV. CLENDENNING ARDENT HORSESHOE PITCHER AT EIGHTY-SIX
“I’m growing old with the boys,” said Mr. Harvey Clendenning, as he tossed a “ringer” around a peg at the Stouffville horseshoe pits. At 86 years, Mr. Clendenning can match the skill of competitors only half his age. He is one of the local club’s most enthusiastic members. Almost nightly he may be seen at the pits, either limbering up his horseshoe-throwing arm or competing in an inter-team tournament. For Mr. Clendenning it is merely two hours of relaxation after a busy day on the farm at lot 1, rear of conc. 5 Whitchurch Twp.
Although twirling a horseshoe around a steel peg is now Mr. Clendenning’s “first love,” he has been active in other forms of athletics down through the years. At one time he was considered to be the best outdoor lacrosse player in the district. He performed with Stouffville when they fielded one of the top teams in Canada. In addition, he was a top-notch football player. He always lived up to his motto — “a good sport is better than a good winner.”
Mr. Clendenning started pitching horseshoes at the early age of 10. As a young farm boy he would retrieve discarded shoes from his father’s horses and set up wooden four-inch stakes in the backyard. At that time, a ringer would count 3 points, a hubber or leaner was two, and a close shoe was one. He competed in the first open championship competition in the City of Toronto and has seldom missed similar events at the Canadian National Exhibition or the Winter Fair. Members of the Stouffville Club contend that there isn’t a man of comparable age in Canada who can match Mr. Clendenning’s skill.
Mr. Harvey Clendenning was one of seven children, born to his parents Mr. and Mrs. Darias Clendenning, lot 32 conc. 9, Markham Township. He married the former Frances Carter of Fort William. Six children were born to the union, five of whom still survive. The two youngest, Max and Arthur, operate the Clendenning farm on the townline with their father. Murray owns and operates a garage at Timmins. Earl was a member of the Northwest Mounted Police and Fred works in a mine at Sudbury. Fred, better known to his friends as “Pete,” is, like his father, an enthusiastic sportsman.
Has Mr. Clendenning any intentions of retiring from participation in local sport? Not as long as he retains enough strength to toss a horseshoe around a peg. STOUFFVILLE HORSESHOE TOURNAMENT
Harry Noble and Stan Slack continue to set the pace atop the Stouffville Horseshoe Club tournament following competition last week. The two men have collected a total of 894 points, fourteen more than their closest competitors Messrs. Walt Pascoe and Cliff Pipher, who have a total of 880 points. Chas. Jackson and Dave Ratcliff hold down the number 3 spot with 826. The standings of the other members are as follows: Chas. Jackson and Bill Grove — 769; Robt. Sellers and Walt Slack — 767; Murray Stewart and Gerald Noble — 731; Geo. Stark and Ed. Brownsberger — 702; Harv Clendenning and Elmer Orr — 698; Giles Tran and Archie Stewart — 628; Walt Vague and Chas. Preston — 408. The team of Chas. Preston and Walt Vague have missed the last two nights’ play, which accounts for their low score.
At the present time, the closest race is being staged between the father and son combination of Chas. and Wm. Grove and Robt. Sellers and Walt Slack. A mere two points separate the two teams. D. SEEBECK SNAPS BATTING SLUMP; BELTS HOMER, 2 SINGLES
Donna Seebeck displayed the true extent of her plate power on Wednesday night of last week. Teeing off against two East York pitchers, she belted two singles and a home run in three official trips to the plate. She walked twice. Her single-base clout in the fourth inning drove two mates across. The sacks were empty when she uncorked her round-tripper. It was one of the few good nights the local outfielder has enjoyed in home encounters. She turned in a star-studded defensive role at short stop against Richmond Hill one week previous. Stouffville kept within striking distance of first-place Whitby by chalking up a 16-7 victory over their East York rivals.
When it comes to an all-round performance, Doreen Jarvis can usually take a bow. On Wednesday night she kept pace with teammate Donna Seebeck by whacking a pair of singles and a four-bagger. Her home run came in the last inning with Donna Seebeck and Joyce Roberts parked on base. She was a strikeout victim in the fourth and reached first on an error in her initial time at bat. Joyce Roberts poked out three singles, and Mavis Trunk poled a triple, completing the circuit when catcher Carol Grobb dropped the throw-in. Audrey Murison and Joan Raymer tapped out single-base blows. Joan Raymer worked the route on the mound for Stouffville. Although clipped for 14 hits, with the exception of one extra-base blow, she kept the East York batters limited to singles. Leftfielder Betty Crawford smacked a home run in the third inning. The Stouffville righthander registered 5 strikeouts and walked 2. Joyce Roberts, never considered a whirlwind outfield rover, completed the nicest putout of the game by grabbing a well-hit ball from the bat of centrefielder Mary Moore in the second.
East York threatened to cut down a five-run lead built up by Stouffville in the early innings when they loaded up the sacks in the 2nd. Three straight singles jammed the sacks, but their ninth batter went down on strikes to end the rally. The visitors outhit Stouffville 14-11, but eight balls collected off East York proved fatal. STOUFFVILLE PAIR WIN BURNS TROPHY AT MARKHAM
The John Burns Bowling Trophy has been brought to Stouffville. The award, posted by Mr. Burns of Markham, was put up for competition at a men’s doubles tournament on July 25th. Two veteran competitors, Messrs. Elgin Wagg and Mervin Watts of the Stouffville Club, ousted Mr. Burns of Markham and Mr. Connor of Hamilton to take the prize. It is the second straight year Messrs. Burns and Connor have been beaten. Last year, they were edged out by a point.

HUNDREDS ENJOY COLOURFUL WATER SHOW
Hundreds of spectators attended the second annual Water Show conducted at the Stouffville Community Swimming Pool on Wednesday evening of last week. A well-planned programme included races, water polo, and diving competitions. A number of competitors were present from Markham.
A group of small children gave a demonstration of water skills they had learned during the past months. They included Jill McWhinnie, Ronald Raymer, Jill Roper, Susan Clark, Donna Marie Schell, Yvonne Schell and Murray Rutherford.
The greasy log stunt provided plenty of entertainment for the spectators. John Heaton was the only successful competitor. Two of the five relay races were won by Stouffville. Markham took three events. The water polo score was 51 for Stouffville.
The results of diving events were as follows: Junior Girls — Janice Smith, Stouffville Junior Boys — Vince Lawrusik, Markham Intermediate Girls — Janet Button, Stouffville Intermediate Boys — Bruce Rathie, Markham Senior Girls — Barbara Button, Stouffville Senior Boys — Bob Rathie, Markham Adult — Mrs. Bowden, Markham Adult — Mike Bowden, Markham
Two ballet numbers were presented by the Stouffville Club. Rescue and artificial respiration methods were demonstrated. The trophy was presented to the Markham Club by Miss Jean Pipher. Each winner of diving competitions was presented with an individual award.
Marion Gayman socks 250 ft. homer against Oakwood
Marion Gayman is back on the batting team again in an exhibition contest with Oakwood on Wednesday night. The hard-hitting first baseman slammed one of the longest home run balls to be tagged by a local girl here this season. Ila Redshaw was parked on base when the cleanup slugger uncorked her tour-base blow. The ball carried for an estimated distance of 250 feet into deep right field. In spite of the late game rally, Stouffville lost the game by a basketball score of 19-15.
The local first-sacker had a field day at the expense of two Oakwood pitchers. She bagged a home run, a triple and a single. She counted three of the team’s fifteen tallies. Ila Redshaw, another long-ball slugger, socked a single and a double. Joan Raymer tapped out a pair of singles. Mavis Trunk, Loraine Holdsworth and Audrey Murison each had one safety.
Oakwood jumped on the offerings of starter Joan Gayman for ten runs in the first two innings. Joan Raymer took in relief and twirled fine ball. In the sixth inning she was the receiving end of a shot from the bat of Marg Kague. She recovered in time to throw out the runner at the plate.
A series of walks, errors and hits scored a total of 11 runs for Stouffville in the seventh and ninth innings. The club batted completely around the order on both occasions.
The homesters toiled through the nine-inning contest minus the services of catcher Doreen Jarvis. Lenore Loyst handled her duties. LOCAL TEAMS ENTERED IN PROVINCIAL PLAYOFFS
Two local softball and baseball teams will be seeking Provincial titles this summer. The girls’ entry has already hit the playoff trail and will meet Whitby in Intermediate ‘B’ competition this week. If unsuccessful against the county town club, they may drop back to ‘C’ grouping and continue in the title hunt. The Stouffville team has not enjoyed too much success against Whitby, having won only one game while dropping three. Coach O’Neill hopes to have the majority of his regular crew back in the lineup.
Coach Don Haynes of the Junior Cardinals expects the club will see playoff action on Aug. 29th. There are four separate divisions in Jr. ‘C’ ranks. The Cards are defending champions. To date this season, the local entry has played only in exhibition games, since no Junior league was in operation in this district.

LOCAL SWIMMER BREAKS BREAST STROKE RECORD
Tim Wees, conc. 2, Uxbridge Twp., snapped an existing record in the breast stroke class at a swim meet held at Unionville on Monday, Aug. 10. Only members of the Stouffville and Unionville clubs took part in the competition. Stouffville’s Tim Wees completed the 25 yd. distance in 143 seconds. Richard Meade of Unionville placed second.
Stouffville swimmers, who headed their respective classes, were as follows:
– Free Style 25 yds. Boys — Roger Stover – Free Style 25 yds. Girls — Betty Ann Slack – Free Style 25 yds. (boys 11-12) — Ronnie Castle – Free Style 100 yds. (boys under 21) — Bill Doyle – Breast Stroke 25 yds. (boys 15-16) — Tim Wees, Ian Thomas, Richard Heeman – Relay 199 yds. (girls 11-12) — Janet Button, Janice Smith, Darlene Watson, Barbara Howard
Other Stouffville competitors who failed to finish in a first-place position were Barbara Button, Darlene Watson, Mike Cadieux, Eric Button, John Willis, Bill Burd, Judy Bellman, Frances Fair, Karen Hamilton, Bob Lamb, Allan Meabry, Ken Aida, Bill Sheridan, Anna Mae Sanders, Marlene Malloy, Nadine Lennox, Mardele Willis, and Raymond Rioux.
A number of the events were very close, with Stouffville entries finishing only seconds behind their Unionville rivals. To bring the event to an amiable close, the Unionville club hosted Stouffville at a wiener roast. VETERAN RED SOX, JR. CARDS 4-4 TIE IN EXHIBITION
Although the majority of Stouffville’s once-colourful Red Sox have seen better days, their lengthy layoff was barely visible on Tuesday night. They grabbed a 3-0 lead and hung on to a 4-4 draw with a scrappy crew of Junior Cardinals.
Although the Red Sox men looked like mere ghosts of the team that clubbed its way to the Tri-County title a number of seasons back, they still completed some plays that brought applause from the crowd. Bob Hassard stole the pants off Card pitcher Keith Scott in the third inning. With two out, he raced with the Red Sox third tally. He was also on the pivot end of a neat double play executed in the fifth. Gord Eckardt and Lynn Taylor were rubbed out with Les Clarke and Harold Hodgson figuring in the twin killing.
The most sparkling performance for the Juniors was the plate power of centrefielder Roger Stover. He belted a double and two singles in three official trips, counting two of the Cards’ four tallies. Clean-up slugger Harry Barber poled a double and a single. Bob Stover, Gord Eckhardt, Keith Scott, and Roger Todd each poked out one hit. Todd’s blast in the fifth was good for a double as it rolled to the base of the centrefield fence. Both starting pitchers, Stan Miller and Keith Scott, went the route.
Bob Hassard, Bud Lehman, and Don Haynes bagged doubles for the comeback squad. Miller hit a single. Ex-Aurora hurler Scott fired fine ball and had 12 strikeouts in 7 innings. He was plagued with control trouble in the early stages and walked four. Only one of these came home to roost. Each club made three errors.
Two veteran members of the Junior squad had little luck at the plate. John Little and Lynn Taylor went hitless. Lanky Miller displayed the same nonchalant manner that had made him a mound attraction in the district during his baseball heyday. A slightly slower fastball took a toll of 10 of the opposition. He walked 7. Haynes completed the battery. Only in the fifth did “big Tom” get into any trouble. Four hits and a pair of walks shoved four Cards across the plate. He whiffed three strikes past John Roxborough to leave two runners stranded.
The Red Sox hits were few but hard. Hassard’s drive was drilled into deep centrefield for a standup double. Stan Miller’s rifle-shot single nearly tore the glove off Card shortstop Todd. Haynes’ double was well hit. Roxborough robbed Lehman of an extra-base blow in the third inning. Ross Madill of the Sox pulled down an equally good drive from the bat of John Little in the 7th to end a Card rally and the game.
The exhibition was made even more complete by the attendance of Tri-County umpire Lou Murphy. He called an excellent game behind the plate. Len Buckland officiated on the bases. WHITBY GIRLS WIN SERIES; TYING RUN NIPPED AT PLATE
Stouffville girls went down to defeat at the hands of a strong Whitby team last week in the first round of the Intermediate ‘B’ Provincial playoffs. The County town squad took the opener 11-10 and eked out a 23-22 win on their home grounds on Friday night. Stouffville will now drop down to ‘C’. Their next opposition will likely be Richmond Hill. Both contests were nine-inning thrillers. In each game only one run separated the clubs. On Wednesday night at Stouffville, Audrey Murison, carrying the tying tally to the plate, was picked off by the pitcher, Irene Kehoe. Ila Redshaw, representing the winning run, was left stranded on second base.
In spite of the two-game setback, Stouffville girls played exceptionally well. Ila Redshaw literally tore the cover off the ball in both contests. She belted four singles in the opener and poked out four more hits in Friday’s tilt. Doreen Jarvis bagged a pair of doubles in the Stouffville game, and Audrey Murison whacked out three singles. Marion Gayman and Joyce Roberts each poked a pair.
In the return contest, Natalie Belch worked six complete innings but was replaced by Joan Raymer in the seventh. Isobel Mothersill and Irene Kehoe shared the mound chores for Whitby. Joan Raymer went the distance in the opener. Marion Gayman belted one of her now-famous home run balls.

HILL COACH FILES PROTEST; LOCAL GIRLS WIN IN NINTH INNING
Richmond Hill ladies are out of the running in the Provincial playoffs, but not if their coach Geo. Gourlay can gain the sympathy of neutral officials at a protest meeting. With the score deadlocked at 14-14, he notified the Stouffville coach Doug O’Neill and the plate umpire that the contest was being completed under protest. In the bottom half of the ninth inning, Marion Gayman whacked out a double and romped home with the tie-breaking tally when Lenore Loyst grounded out. Although the Tribune has not learned if coach Gourlay followed through on his protest threat, he notified an official of the P.W.S.U. of his intentions. A protest carries an automatic $25 fee.
Umpires Decision The bitter argument, one of many that plagued the progress of the game, occurred in the top of the ninth. Pinch-hitter Florine Pridham received a base on balls. First-sacker, Esther Bell, was an automatic out at the plate. On instructions from coach Gourlay, the first base runner attempted to steal second. The ball was pegged to Helen Gayman and the umpire called her out. The Richmond Hill coach claimed the Stouffville infielder touched the bag but not the player and since it was not a force-out, the runner was safe. The official said that the player was properly tagged. With two out, Mary Sanderson popped out to first-sacker Marion Gayman, and the side was retired.
Heated Control From the first inning to the ninth, coach Gourlay of Richmond Hill was breathing fire down the necks of the umpires. The contest was delayed for ten minutes in the opening inning when he charged that the batters’ box was improperly marked. Bitter debate and argument frequented the game and was carried over when it was finally completed. Feeling between some of the players was also quite high. Stouffville took the series opener at Richmond Hill 13-10. Unless informed to the contrary, they will now proceed into further Int. ‘C’ competition.
Two Home Runs Marion Gayman is currently the Tito Francona of the Stouffville team. In a potent display of plate power, she hammered out two home runs and a double. She counted five of the club’s fifteen tallies, the fifth being the winner. Both circuit clouts were poled down the right-field line. Teammate Joyce Roberts was on base each time. Audrey Murison kept her hitting streak alive. Enjoying one of the best seasons in her softball career, the local third-sacker cranked out three singles in four times at bat. Lenore Sykes has returned to playoff action and is also wielding a powerful bat. She belted two singles and a home run. Joyce Roberts tapped out three singles, and Jean Halsted counted a pair. Ila Redshaw, another long-ball batsman, slammed a triple in the seventh. Doreen Jarvis had one hit.
Field Strong Club Richmond Hill fielded a power-packed club in Wednesday’s game. Second baseman Edna Maybury clouted a single and a triple. Third-sacker Mary Sanderson hit a single and a double. Irene Mashinter worked the route on the mound for the visitors. She was clipped for 15 hits. Her team committed six errors. Jean Halsted and Joan Raymer shared the pitching chores for the homesters. Right-hander Halsted allowed 11 hits. Reliefer Raymer twirled a no-hitter for two innings. She was plagued with some control trouble and issued four walks. Only two runners came home to score. Stouffville players made four errors. LOSE EXHIBITION 12-3
Southpaw moundsman Glenn Jackson received a baptism of frontline fire on Wednesday evening of last week when he was given the nod for the starting assignment against a visiting Leaside team in a pre-playoff exhibition encounter. The cocky Toronto crew bunched together twelve hits and eight walks to score a one-sided 12-3 victory over the Cards. Jackson twirled the entire seven innings.
Stouffville could collect only five safeties off Berbeck on the Leaside hill. Harry Barber, Lynn Taylor, John Roxborough, Roger Todd, and Glenn Jackson poked out hits. All were single blows. Leaside completed their twelve-run rout with a tremendous home run from the bat of left fielder Jim Pickell. In addition, he belted two singles and a double.

PAUSE THAT REFRESHES -see picture Picture CARDS SINK CREEMORE 18-2 IN JUNIOR PLAYOFF OPENER
Stouffville’s Gord Eckardt transformed Creemore’s provincial playoff debut into a nightmare of home runs, doubles, and singles on Saturday afternoon as the big 190-pound receiver ripped the opposition’s defenses to shreds. Unleashing one of the most potent individual plate attacks ever witnessed by the local observers, the Cardinal catcher belted out five hits in seven times at bat. He personally completed the circuit four times as Stouffville racked up a one-sided 18-2 victory. The return tilt will be played in the Stouffville park on Saturday afternoon at 3 o’clock. The series is a best three-out-of-five games.
Tremendous Home Run Eckardt climaxed his amazing effort with a tremendous 325-foot home run over the centrefield fence in the fifth inning. A potent performer in the Cards’ march to the Jr. ‘C’ championship last fall, the husky utility infielder collected two doubles and two singles in addition to his circuit blow. His uniform and chest protector were soaked with perspiration at the conclusion of the game. The nine-inning contest was staged in ninety-degree temperatures.
Tosses 7-Hitter Southpaw Glenn Jackson twirled a neat seven-hitter. The local left-hander registered 9 strikeouts and walked four batters. He held the homesters off the score sheet for eight of the nine innings. Only in the fourth did he weaken slightly. Two singles, a double, and an error allowed Creemore to push two men across the plate. In the remaining five innings, he fired fine ball. He yielded only one hit, a single-base tap to Creemore’s John Westbrook. He retired the side in order in the first, fifth, and ninth. Don Westbrook and Doug Martin shared the mound chores for Creemore.
All-round Effort Harry Barber has gained recognition as the Card’s top all-round performer. He has played at almost every position on the club and is currently batting in the cleanup spot. Although an injured index finger on his potent pitching hand has sidelined him from mound duty, it has not halted his proficiency with a big bat. On Saturday he clubbed out two doubles, a triple, and a single. He handled the first base trapper with extreme agility. He looked especially keen on a high throw from third-sacker Bob Stover in the second. Creemore’s Don Westbrook’s infield ground ball was scooped up by Stover. Barber leaped high in the air to glove the ball. He tagged the runner in a race to the bag.
Sixteen Hits Gord Eckardt and Harry Barber collected nine of Stouffville’s sixteen hits. Ted Suzuki bagged a pair of doubles. Lynn Taylor poked out two singles and Roger Todd belted a two-bagger. Bob Stover hit a single. Todd’s blow was a line shot into deep centrefield. The ball rolled under the fence, and the runner was credited with an automatic double. Thirteen Stouffville batters paraded to the plate in the fifth inning. They collected eight runs. Up to that point the game was closely contested. Stouffville led 3-2 until the top of the fatal fifth. John Gowan was Creemore’s best. He poked out a double and a single. First-sacker Ron Rhodes counted two singles.
Good Crowd In spite of the heat, the series opener attracted a fine turnout of hometown supporters. Creemore boasts a population of 900 residents. Their playing field is above average. They have no floodlights. The team is coached by ex-Collingwood goalkeeper Reg. Westbrook. They captured the midget ‘D’ championship last year. DOREEN JARVIS BELTS HOMER TO BREAK TIE, LOCAL GIRLS WIN 17-11
The Stouffville girls have advanced into the all-Ontario Intermediate ‘C’ softball semi-finals. A victory in the next playoff round would move the local club into the Provincial finals. Their opposition, to date, has not been named. They have now won four straight games. They ousted Richmond Hill in two straight and swept past Burnamthorpe Belles with successive victories 12-5 and 17-11.
Delivers Key Blow In the return contest played under the lights in Stouffville on Tuesday night, it was local catcher Doreen Jarvis who delivered the game’s key blow. With the score tied at 11-11 and three mates parked on base, the stocky receiver slammed the ball into deep centrefield to clear the sacks. Pinch-runner Ila Redshaw, Gwen Kennedy, and Donna Seebeck romped home ahead of the home run slugger. The round-tripper gave Stouffville a 15-11 lead. Stouffville sewed up the game with two tallies in the eighth. The Burnamthorpe visitors play their home games at Dixie.
Seventeen Hits Stouffville bunched together 17 hits in the nine-inning game. A home run and two singles for Doreen Jarvis snapped a batting slump that had plagued her for the past two weeks. Gwen Kennedy was a powerhouse at the plate for the winners. A recent returnee to the local lineup, the agile outfield rover belted a single, a double, and a triple. She personally scored three Stouffville runs and drove in two more, one in the third and one in the sixth. Donna Seebeck wielded a big bat, cranking out three singles. Mavis Trunk belted a home run and a single. Joyce Roberts poked out a pair of safeties. Joan Raymer, Lenore Sykes, and Ila Redshaw each had one hit. Claremont’s Ila Redshaw has been repeatedly “robbed” of extra-base hits during the entire season. She was not to be denied on Tuesday night. She teed off on a knee-length pitch in the eighth inning and rapped it into centrefield for a home run.
Overcome Big Lead Performing on a foreign field, the Burnamthorpe team found themselves on the short end of a 5-3 score after three innings of play. In a sudden burst of power, they staged an eleven-run rally in the fourth and sixth innings. Stouffville kept pace with their rivals with a pair of runs in the fifth. This set the stage for Doreen Jarvis’ circuit clout with mates aboard. Shortstop Nancy Carr was best, bagging two singles and a triple. Janet Sterritt and Janey Calvert each had singles. The visitors committed seven errors. Stouffville had six bobbles.
Works Nine Innings Righthander Joan Raymer toiled through the nine-inning route, twirling a commendable 11-hitter. She walked four and struck out one. She ran into trouble during the mid-innings but rallied strongly in the latter stages of the contest. Jean-Ann McCallum and Sandy Cook shared the mound chores for Burnamthorpe. Stouffville completed some dazzling defensive plays. Gwen Kennedy, Donna Seebeck, and Lenore Sykes looked especially keen on sure-hit line drives. Mavis Trunk brought applause from the stands for an amazing catch at second base in the seventh, leaping high to pull down a hard-hit liner from shortstop Nancy Carr. Marion Gayman, Stouffville’s explosive home-run hitter, was held well in check by Burnamthorpe pitchers. In five trips to the plate, she connected for only one scratch single. It was a different story in the opener at Dixie. The Stouffville first-sacker slammed a three-run homer in the third inning to put her team out front 4-3. Lenore Sykes turned in a sparkling performance at shortstop in the first game. Jean Halstead worked through the entire nine innings and was in control after the third inning.

The torrid temperatures have failed to deter the enthusiasm of the newly organized Minor Hockey Project, and the majority of the coaches, managers, etc., have already been appointed. There will be three and possibly four separate groups depending on the turnout of players.
Mr. Lorne Boadway will be the head manager over the Peewee-Squirt League. He will select his own assistant. The Head Coach will be Mr. Les Clarke. The assistant coaches will be Messrs. Jack Mehaffey, Jake Harmon, Gary Grundy, and Bud Lehman.
Mr. Wilf Morley will be head manager of the league. His assistant will be Mr. Bill Simpson. The Head Coach will be Mr. Bruce Harper. Individual team coaches will be Messrs. Geo Stark, Lloyd Jennings, Gord Eckardt, and Nick Bangay.
In the Midget Juvenile League, Mr. Ken Wagg will be the head manager. His assistant will be Mr. Fred Jackson. The Head Coach will be Mr. Hal Gibson. If enough players are available for a Juvenile club, they will be handled by Messrs. Jack Watson and Polly Minton. The individual team coaches will be Messrs. Harold Hodgson, Keith Sutherland, and Don Haynes. Polly Minton will have complete control over all referees.
The Head Coach over the entire minor hockey organization will be Mr. Bob Bangay. Coach Bangay informed the Tribune that although there might be some minor changes in the hockey personnel before the program swings into operation, he hopes that all the above-named parties will agree to act. Mr. W. T. Rennie, Arena Manager, plans to put the wheels of the freezing plant in motion immediately following the Trade Fair. Ice is expected to be ready early in October. JOHN LITTLE SPARKS DICKSON HILL WIN
A victory on Thursday for Dickson Hill would crown Carl Timbers and company as Stouffville Youth For Christ softball champions and complete one of the biggest playoff upsets of the season. Although the series is far from finished, neutral spectators would hardly give a plugged nickel for Uxbridge after watching them go through a routine of bobbles, fumbles, and errors on Tuesday. Uxbridge were humbled by a score of 22-10. Dickson Hill holds a 2-1 game edge in the series.
Little A Standout For much of the game, it was Uxbridge vs John Little. The Dickson Hill third-sacker was nothing short of sensational at the plate. He belted a grand-slam home run, a triple, and a double. Only in the fourth inning was he held in check, and then he drove the ball into deep centrefield. He personally notched five runs and drove in five more with his big bat. On third base, his glove completed some magic plays. He made six putouts, nipping Howard Young with a sensational pickup and robbing Jim Noble with a line-drive catch in the ninth inning. His performance brought applause from Dickson Hill rooters.
Too Many Errors Sixteen errors in a nine-inning game is a disheartening defensive effort for any pitcher. This was the feeble support that righthander Jim Noble received. In the seventh and eighth innings alone, Uxbridge made a total of 10 bobbles. Dickson Hill had seven fumbles. Uxbridge outfielders had trouble controlling fly balls, many dropping in for extra-base hits. Dickson Hill, on the other hand, covered the outfield like a blanket. Willy Moyer was especially keen, gloving a number of long balls. Glenn Barkey made a grandstand catch on a ball belted by Allan Hoekley. Milne Stouffer covered left field.
Stouffer in Relief Geo Timbers started on the mound for Dickson Hill, with Allan Stouffer taking over in relief. Timbers turned in a commendable performance in his playoff debut although he ran into trouble in the third inning. Five hits and two errors allowed Uxbridge to push two men across the plate. Allan Stouffer completely baffled his rivals with a series of curveballs and change-ups. Howard Young was the only player to touch him for an extra-base hit. Uxbridge’s right-hander Jim Noble was hit surprisingly hard, clipped for 15 safeties. The Timbers-Stouffer combination yielded 13 hits.
Best Batters Allan Hoekley was the top Uxbridge batter with two singles and a double in four trips to the plate. Third-sacker Ken Nendick poled a two-run homer and a single. Howard Young belted a single and a double. Don Prentice and Jake Cain hammered out a pair of singles. Aside from John Little’s prolific plate performance, Dickson Hill hits were well distributed throughout the lineup. Roger Stover collected three singles. Willy Moyer and Milne Stouffer each had two safeties. BARBER WHIPS CREEMORE; CARDS IN PROVINCIAL FINALS
Coach Don Haynes pulled an ace out of his baseball jersey on Monday afternoon. He sent his first-string starter Harry Barber to the mound in an effort to make a clean sweep of the Jr. ‘C’ semifinal series with Creemore. Although plagued by an injured index finger, the crafty curveball artist fired a brilliant 3-hitter as the Cards blanked their rivals 14-0.
Barber was in fine form. He registered 13 strikeouts and gave up only one walk. All three safeties were scratch singles. No Creemore player advanced past second base. He retired the side in order in the second, third, fourth, fifth, and ninth innings.
It was Barber’s first starting assignment in the current playoff series. Glenn Jackson twirled the opener, and Keith Scott worked in the return tilt. Barber handled one inning in relief in the second game.
Stouffville batsmen whacked out a total of 17 hits off two Creemore pitchers — Doug Martin and John Westbrooke were the victims of the free-hitting affair. The following players shared in Stouffville’s offensive attack:
– Roger Stover, 2 singles – John Little, 2 singles – Lynn Taylor, 3 singles – Gord Eckardt, 1 single, 1 double – Harry Barber, 2 singles – Ted Suzuki, 1 single, 1 double – Keith Scott, 1 single, 1 double – Brian Hathaway, 1 single – John Westbrooke, 2 singles off Barber – John Hood, 1 single
Stouffville will now advance into the Provincial finals and expect to meet either Hagersville or Wheatley. The Cardinals defeated Wheatley last year to win the Jr. ‘C’ championship. ONE HUNDRED COMPLETE LIFE-SAVING TESTS AT COMMUNITY POOL

Picture STOUFFVILLE TROUNCE WHEATLEY 17-6; ONTARIO FINALS GAYMAN BELTS TRIPLE, SINGLE, HOME RUN
Stouffville is riding towards its first Provincial Women’s Softball Championship on the big bats of Marion Gayman, Gwen Kennedy, and Lenore Sykes. The three local stars collected nine of their team’s fifteen hits on Saturday night, chalking up a 17-6 victory over Wheatley in the first game of the all-Ontario Intermediate ‘C’ finals. The return contest will be staged under the lights in Stouffville on Saturday at 8:15 p.m.
Superb Performance In the field or at the plate, Stouffville never looked better. Their defensive plays drew favorable comment from the partisan Wheatley fans. A fine contingent of Stouffville spectators rallied vocally to support their finalist entry. A five-run outburst in the sixth inning sewed up the game for the winners, at a time when Wheatley appeared to be on the move, having collected three runs in the previous inning. Leading 12-3, the locals added three more tallies in the seventh and a pair in the ninth to complete the route.
Down But Not Out It was a slightly worried Stouffville coach who paced the field at game time. His ace slugger, Marion Gayman, had not arrived, and her absence would cause a shakeup in his defensive lineup. Her big bat would also be sorely missed. Five minutes later she entered the game “cold” and plagued by a flu bug. Her star-studded performance could have made her a nominee for the All-Canadian girl award. At the plate, she tore the Wheatley pitching power to shreds — slamming a single in the third, a triple in the sixth, and rounding out the contest with a home run blow in the seventh. In six turns at bat, she reached first base five times, personally counted two runs, and drove in two more. Her round-tripper sailed down the right-field line, evading Wheatley’s Jean Bergman.
Cleanup Position Gwen Kennedy, a recent returnee to the lineup, added plenty of playoff power both at the plate and in the outfield. Batting cleanup, she clouted two singles and a triple, rounded the circuit three times, and drove in two additional runs. She completed a dazzling defensive catch in the sixth inning on a Texas League looper. Shortstop Lenore Sykes belted two singles and a double in six trips to the plate and made six putouts in the nine-inning game.
Goes the Distance Both pitchers worked the nine-inning route. Stouffville’s reliable Joan Raymer twirled a neat six-hitter. She ran into trouble in the fifth and seventh innings, but fine defensive plays by her teammates eased the tension. Wheatley left the bases loaded in the seventh. Six of their fifteen safeties were extra-base blows. Stouffville committed eight errors.
Plenty of Speed Mavis Trunk played exceptionally well at second base. Her swift base running caught the Wheatley infield flat-footed and she stole bases with abandon, poking out two singles, walking in the sixth, and reaching on an error in the fourth. She counted two runs. Ila Redshaw, Joyce Roberts, Doreen Jarvis, and Joan Raymer collected the other Stouffville hits, including two-base blows by Jarvis and Roberts. Evelyn Willin poled a triple for Wheatley, driving in two runs, while Martha Borschke bagged a double. Singles came from Carolyn Wilkinson, Joy Shilson, Donna McKean (2), and Beth Hodgson. Coach “Peg” O’Neill stuck with the original lineup throughout, except for substituting Donna Seebeck for Joyce Roberts in the sixth, who belted a double while Donna went in as a pinch-runner. WINS TITLE
Ross Wideman, a veteran baseball and softball campaigner, delivered the fatal blow to Uxbridge’s hopes of winning the Youth For Christ softball championship on Thursday night. In the bottom of the ninth inning, with the score tied and the game-winning runner at third base, Wideman lashed a ringing double into centrefield. Bob Stover scored easily from third, ending the game and the series. Dickson Hill are the new Y.F.C. champions.
Pitcher Parade Dickson Hill tossed every available pitcher into the early innings to halt the Uxbridge assault. Carl Timbers started, working one complete inning. George Timbers took over in the second with two on base and one out, yielding four singles and a home run. Allan Stouffer came to the rescue and retired the side, completing the contest with a sensational relief performance. Only in the fourth inning was he in serious trouble, allowing three extra-base blows including a home run by Howard Young. He then twirled a masterful six-hitter for the remaining five innings.

Picture EDITORIAL — INFERIOR OFFICIATING
The season’s largest sports crowd attended one of the most thrilling games of the current softball year at Stouffville’s Memorial Stadium on Saturday night. The eleven-inning championship encounter between the local ladies and Wheatley packed all the thrills and chills into a single game. Despite numerous errors on both sides, the closeness of the score and the contest’s importance kept more than 300 fans on the edge of their seats.
It is regrettable, however, that the game ended on a rather sour note. Through no fault of the players or management, the officiating was the worst we have ever seen. The umpires and the provincial association were both at fault. No trophy was present on the field for an official presentation, recalling the Stouffville-Wheatley Junior finals at Port Dover last year, where the O.B.A. representative was also absent.
Despite the officiating chaos, Stouffville proved themselves worthy champions, particularly in the series opener at Wheatley with a 17-6 victory. While some calls were questionable, the team’s performance and dedication could not be denied. Coach O’Neill has worked faithfully with his protégées, and those closest to the club knew the coveted cup would not evade the girls’ grasp for long. We offer congratulations and hope the team will return next season to defend their hard-fought title. STOUFFVILLE GIRLS WIN INTERMEDIATE ‘C‘ TITLE IN EXTRA INNING
The Stouffville Int. ‘C entry in the Provincial Women’s Softball Association playoffs, are the new all-Ontario champions. They swept through to the title by beating Wheatley in two straight games, 17-6 and 11-10. They had previously knocked off Richmond Hill and Burnamthorpe to advance into the Provincial finals. The largest crowd of the season attended the crucial contest under the lights in the Stouffville Park on Saturday night.
Fielders Star Although errors were quite numerous in the tension-filled game, the outfielders for both clubs completed some brilliant defensive plays. Joyce Roberts, Gwen Kennedy and Ila Redshaw of Stouffville gathered in some well-hit balls that appeared headed for extra-bases. Jean Bergam of Wheatley was equally sensational. Gwen Kennedy made the first dazzling catch. She gloved a long ball from the bat of Wheatley pitcher Beth Hodgson in the fourth inning. Leftfielder Joyce Roberts brought the crowd to its feet in the ninth inning with a brilliant backhanded catch on a line drive shot from the bat of Wheatley’s Bernice Wilkinson. Stouffville’s Ila Redshaw literally saved the day for the local club on two separate occasions. With the bases loaded she gathered in a long fly ball hit by Beth Hodgson in the seventh. In the top of the tenth, with two on base she grabbed another long ball belted by Evelyn Willan. Each putout halted a determined Wheatley rally. The visitors Jean Bergman hauled down two potent drives, one from the bat of Marion Gayman in the ninth and another from Gwen Kennedy in the tenth.
Held in Check Stouffville’s power hitters weren’t hitting in the entire eleven-inning contest. Only one extra-base blow was belted out of the infield. Marion Gayman looped a Texas League double over second base in the bottom of the eleventh. It was much the same story for Wheatley. Pitcher Beth Hodgson poled a triple in the sixth. Their remaining hits were confined to single-base blows. Stouffville’s Natalie Belch twirled a nifty eight-hitter. Wheatley righthander, Beth Hodgson yielded 11 safeties. Doreen Jarvis was Stouffville’s top batter. She hammered out three singles. Audrey Murison snapped out of her batting slump. She tapped out a pair of singles but was left stranded on both occasions. Lenore Sykes kept pace with teammate Murison and also collected two singles.
Weird Inning The majority of hometown rooters were ready to vacate their grandstand seats after Wheatley pushed three runners across the plate to lead 10-7. The story of what followed in the bottom half of the eleventh inning will never rightly be told. A combination of hits, errors and stolen bases saw three successive batters complete the circuit to tie the score. By some weird oddity, a fourth batter Gwen Kennedy found herself on second base and when the dust had cleared, she was parked at third. She later romped home on a wild pitch to end the game, the series, and the Provincial playoff trail.
Work Strategy The late innings saw both coaches work all types of strategy in an effort to produce a game-winning combination. It appeared to work with considerable success although pinch-hitter Donna Seebeck was an infield out, pinch-runner, Lenora Loyst later scored the tying tally. Wheatley’s Betty McDonald, a pinch-hitter for Donna McKeen belted a single in the 11th and completed the circuit. On three separate occasions, infield decisions brought the Wheatley coach off the bench. His verbal protests fell on deaf ears. The trophy emblematic of Intermediate ‘C’ superiority will be presented to the Stouffville champs later this fall. STOUFFVILLE TRIO WINS BIRKETT BOWLING TROPHY
A Stouffville threesome comprising Elmer Daniels, Reta Laushway and Marg Wagg captured the Birkett Bowling Trophy in a mixed trebles tournament on the local greens on Saturday night. They were high for three wins. Second high for three wins were Geo. Middleton, Hattie Storey and Marion Farthing. High for two wins were Robt Johnston, Eleanor Crossen and Doris Farthing. High for one win was a Claremont rink skipped by Mr. Ward.
Local bowlers have had a busy season both on their home green and in neighbouring centres. On Aug 22nd, Donald Bacon, Eleanor Crossen and Elmer Farthing won the O’Cedar Trophy in a mixed trebles tournament at Brampton. On Sept.16 Lou Beare skip, Hattie Storey and Agnes Wallace posted a high for three wins in a ladies trebles tournament at Aurora. High for one win was Mrs. Watts, Nellie Klinck and Eva Boadway. On Sept.12th, Eleanor Crossen, Reta Laushway and Hilda Middleton were high for two wins at a ladies trebles competition for the Clement Trophy in Richmond Hill.
On Wednesday, Sept 16th, Mr. Don Bacon and Mrs. Eleanor Crossen took part in a mixed doubles tournament at Brampton. The twosome captured the Dale Estate Rose Bowl with a high for three wins. CARDS EDGE HAGERSVILLE 5-4, BARBER TWIRLS 3-HITTER
The Junior Cardinals could wrap up their second Provincial Championship with a victory over Hagersville in Stouffville Park on Saturday afternoon. The game time is 3:30 p.m. Riding along on a sparkling 3-hitter tossed by ace righthander, Harry Barber, the Cards squeezed out a tight 5-4 victory in the series opener at Hagersville on Saturday afternoon of last week. Gord Eckardt completed the circuit twice. Ted Suzuki, Harry Barber and Brian Hathaway counted single runs.
Hagersville evened the score at 3-3 in the bottom half of the sixth. A triple and two errors scored two runs. The Cards outscored their rivals 2-1 in the eighth inning. Gord Eckardt led off with a single. Harry Barber followed with a single-base blow and Bob Stover belted a safety to keep the rally rolling. Keith Scott and Roger Todd loaded up the sacks but Ted Suzuki was a strikeout victim to retire the side.
Hagersville scratched two of their three hits off Barber in the bottom half of the eighth, but only one runner completed the circuit. The third man went down on strikes with the bases loaded. Both sides were retired in order in the ninth.
Coach Don Haynes of the Cards spoke highly of Hagersville opposition. They are a young club and the majority should be eligible for Junior ranks next season. The playing field had much to be desired and was partially responsible for the six errors that plagued the local’s lineup. Coach Haynes looks for a real tight battle when the two teams hook again in the return tilt on Saturday afternoon. Hagersville ousted Wheatley. They won the opener in extra-innings and took the mid-week game by default.
October 1 1959 CARDS-HAGERSVILLE BATTLE TO A TIE IN ELEVEN INNINGS
Stouffville and Hagersville battled to a 3-3 eleven-inning draw in a hectic marathon Provincial playoff contest in the Memorial Park on Saturday afternoon. Only the intervention of darkness forced umpire Tom Hulme to halt the game. It has been declared “no contest”. Stouffville can retain the Junior ‘C’ title with a victory at Hagersville on Saturday afternoon of this week. A loss would force a rubber match back in Stouffville on the following weekend. The Cards took the opener 5-4. A huge crowd watched the tense struggle that lasted almost four hours. Hagersville forced the game into extra-innings when they scored two runs in the top of the ninth on three singles, a walk and an outfield error.
Tempers Flare Hagersville found themselves almost minus a management when both the manager John Maggio and his assistant Grant Kett, were ejected from the game by the officials. Maggio was the first to get the gate. Kett followed in the tenth inning. Umpire Hulme threatened on two occasions to award the contest to Stouffville if the management failed to comply with his orders. Maggio aroused the ire of the plate official by insisting on directing his club following his ejection from the game. He finally took a seat in the grandstand but later returned to a location near the players’ bench. A final warning forced him to retreat to a more neutral site.
Well Matched On the day’s play, there was little to choose between the teams. The Cards left the bases loaded in the first inning. Hagersville loaded up the sacks in the second but failed to score. Bob Stover carried the would-be winning tally across the plate in the eighth inning, but umpire Hulme ruled that he left the bag before the ball was caught. Outfielders Roger Stover and Ted Suzuki collided in an attempt to grab a fly ball from the bat of Glen Vanevery in the ninth and two runners advanced. Harry Barber hurled a sparkling nine-hitter over the eleven-inning route. Hagersville’s Glen Vanevery worked ten and two-thirds innings. He, like Barber, yielded nine hits. Win Sardine did a brief relief stint in the eighth to put out a Stouffville rally. Both Barber and Vanevery were under surveillance by a scout with the Detroit “Tiger” chain.
Potent Batter Catcher Gord Eckardt continues to belt long balls from the offerings of rival pitchers. He lashed extra-base blows off Creemore moundsmen and has been equally successful with Hagersville hurlers. On Saturday he smashed a double and a single in four trips. He was intentionally walked in the ninth. Lynn Taylor enjoyed a good day, rapping two singles into the outfield. Harry Barber belted three singles in six times at bat. Ted Suzuki, Keith Scott and Roger Stover each had one hit. Frank DeMille tapped out three hits for Hagersville. Don Smith whacked a pair. Glen Vanevery poled a home run over the left-field fence.
Double Plays The “White Sox” have nothing on the Cards when it comes to completing double plays. Stouffville came up with two twin-killings in Saturday’s tilt. Hagersville’s Brian Melenbacher hit into the first D.P. in the second with the bases loaded. Barber gloved his ground ball and flipped to catcher Eckardt for a force-out at the plate. Eckardt blazed the ball to first-sacker Keith Scott to nip the batter. Melenbacher was again a double play victim in the fifth. This time the play went from second baseman Lynn Taylor to shortstop Roger Todd to first-sacker Keith Scott.
Bench Strength Hagersville didn’t lack for reserve bench strength in the late innings, they tossed pinch-hitters and pinch-runners into the contest in a reckless gamble to produce a game-winning combination. Altogether, thirteen players saw action for the visitors. HAGERSVILLE EXTEND CARDS TO THIRD GAME WITH 5 TO 1 WIN
It will be “do or die” for Stouffville’s Junior Cardinals when they invade Hagersville Park on Saturday afternoon of this week. The defending champs bowed to the visitors 5-1 in the second game of the series here. Stouffville took the opener 5-4. Another contest was ruled out when the two clubs battled to an eleven-inning 3-3 draw.
Two disastrous errors paved the way for the Hagersville victory to even the series. Don Smith bagged a triple in the second inning and completed the circuit on a throwing error. Jim Roberts poked out a single in the third and moved to second base on a similar miscue. Brian Hathaway was the victim of both bobbles. Roberts later came on to score on a single by Charlie Winger. Both runs were unearned.
The Cards battled back with a single run in the eighth. Lynn Taylor led off with a walk and Gord Eckardt lashed a double into deep centre field to push Taylor across the plate. Hagersville broke the contest wide open in the top half of the ninth. Pitcher Glen Vanevery smashed a 375-foot homer out of the park to start the rally rolling. Two errors, a bunt single by Bill Prince and another hit by Bill gave the visitors a stranglehold lead. Hagersville’s Vanevery hurled his best game to date in the series. He twirled a stingy 4-hitter. He had a no-hitter going until clipped for three safeties in the sixth. Gord Eckardt, Harry Barber and Glenn Jackson whacked out singles. All three men were left stranded on the sacks. Stouffville pitcher Harry Barber was good enough to win most games. He received weak support from his mates both in the field and at the plate. The Cards committed five errors. Hagersville had one miscue. Fifteen Stouffville batters went down on strikes.
A large contingent of supporters are expected to accompany the local squad to Hagersville for the “rubber match”. Coach Don Haynes will likely call on his number one mound ace, Harry Barber to retain the coveted title. Vanevery will likely get the starting assignment for the Hagersville club.

It was Hagersville’s turn to ride the red fire engine through the town’s main street on Saturday afternoon. It was Stouffville’s turn to offer the congratulatory handshakes as righthander Glenn Vanevery blazed three strikes past pinch-hitter John Roxborough in the ninth inning, the coveted crown rode with the pitch. It was Hagersville’s game, their series and their championship. The Cards, a number of which had taken a rough ride from partisan Hagersville fans throughout the contest, were quick to commend the victors for their successful shot at the title. They were the game’s undisputed winners. They blinked the locals by a score of 5-0.
Too Good or Too Bad It was difficult to tell whether Vanevery’s sinking curve ball was too good or whether the Stouffville batters were just too bad. A total of 14 Card batsmen went down either swinging crazily or with the bat parked on their shoulders. He retired the side in order in four of the nine innings. Stouffville had a couple of minor threats working in the third, seventh and ninth innings but the players died on the sacks. Second-sacker Lynn Taylor brandished the only big bat in the locals’ lineup, but he was left stranded every time. He belted a double in the fourth, a single in the ninth and was safe on an error in the seventh. He failed to advance past second base. John Little looped a short Texas League single into short centre field in the ninth. Second-sacker Bill Prince dropped to his knees in attempting to grab the ball and Little was safe on the play. That was the extent of Stouffville’s plate power.
Do Nothing Wrong Hagersville could do nothing wrong. They clipped hurler Harry Barber for seven safeties. They streaked around the bases like fleet-footed deer. They gobbled up the few drives that did venture into the outfield. They committed only one error. In addition, their pitcher was “red hot” from the first pitch to the last. It just wasn’t Stouffville’s day. Hagersville threatened to explode for runs in the opening inning but the side was retired with bases loaded. They had men on base in the second, third and fourth but couldn’t squeeze them around. In the fifth inning, it happened. Charlie Hill led off with a single. Winger bounced a line drive off Taylor’s leg and all hands were safe. Pitcher Vanevery was a sacrifice out, but Bill Prince singled to score Hill. Another hit by Smith brought Winger and Prince across the plate. As far as Stouffville’s hopes were concerned the game could have ended then and there. Hagersville added two insurance tallies in the seventh. Two walks, two errors and a wild pitch ran the homesters’ total to five. They were retired in order in the eighth.
Too Much “Stuff” Aside from Stouffville’s Lynn Taylor, the Cards could not cope with the offerings of Hagersville’s Vanevery. Gord Eckardt, the locals’ long-ball slugger, was a strikeout victim on three occasions. He flied deep to left field in the sixth. Bob Stover, Ted Suzuki and John Little each went down on strikes twice. Coach Don Haynes tossed two pinch-hitters into the fray in the late innings but they too met a similar fate. Roger Stover and John Roxborough went down swinging. Lynn Taylor had the combination to Vanevery’s curve ball. Both base hits were solid drives. His two-bagger might have been a triple but it became bogged down in the long outfield grass. Glenn Jackson also hit the ball every time up but was thrown out at first base.
Listless Contest The nine-inning contest was not an exciting game to watch. The crowd, although outnumbering Stouffville fans 10-1, appeared only slightly overjoyed at their club’s good fortune. The players too lacked the enthusiasm that should have prevailed at a Provincial finals game. At times the in-field was so quiet one could have heard the proverbial pin drop. The contest lacked the colour and excitement that was noticeable in both games at Stouffville. It was possible that the 3-0 cushion built up by Hagersville in the fifth inning, plus the pitching prowess of Vanevery, established a mental picture of a would-be championship club long before the final out was made. A large number of hometown rooters left the stands early in the afternoon to attend a softball double-header at Jarvis.
Big Holes to Fill In spite of the loss, coach Don Haynes of the Cards offered no excuses. He noted, however, that the locals missed the boat when Hagersville battled to score a 3-3 draw in the second game of the series. Cards took the opener 5-4. They dropped the third 5-1. It is rather ridiculous to think that any team could lose the services of two ace performers, Haynes and Madill, without feeling the pinch. Coach Haynes praised the work of his newcomers Roger Stover, Keith Scott, Roger Todd, John Roxborough and other first-year additions. He noted that they played a big part in Stouffville’s sweep of the series with Creemore. It is possible that the Cards may move from Junior ranks to Intermediate competition next year. A number of the players are still eligible for Junior ball if the management decides to reclaim the title. One can hardly be critical of any club that wins a Provincial championship one year and is a competitor in the finals the following season. The Cards have established a fine record and have gained a good following. Fans will be hoping for their return to the base paths again next summer. LOCAL GIRLS WIN TITLE TO END LONG SEASON
With no other teams to beat and no other championships to win, the Stouffville girls concluded their season’s softball activities on Tuesday night at Whitby. They edged the county town crew 12-11 to capture the group honours. The title was to be decided on one-night double-header but Whitby refused to play the second contest. It was declared a Stouffville win by default. The locals swept both the group championship and the Provincial title to conclude the most successful season in Stouffville softball history. Eighteen frigid players toiled through the five-inning game. Gwen Kennedy turned in some “Mickey Mantle” plays in centre field, completing a number of spectacular catches. On one drive, she grabbed the ball and doubled the runner off at first base. When she ventured too far off the bag, Audrey Murison belted a home run. Joan Raymer was a late arrival at the game and coach O’Neill substituted Ila Redshaw on the mound. She fared well until the last inning when Whitby rallied for five runs. Joan Raymer took over with two on base and two out. She walked one batter to load up the sacks, then fired three strikes past the next girl to end the game and the season.
October 22 1959 TOPS IN THEIR CLASS
Two Stouffville golfers will have their names inscribed on fine trophies which were presented to them following the completion of an Invitational Tournament at the Markham Golf and Country Club on Saturday. Mr. Jim Dysart captured the Dr. Jim Stevens Memorial Trophy with the best gross score. Mr. Wilf Morley collects a silver trophy, emblematic of the best net score. Fifty-two competitors braved the rather inclement weather conditions to take part in the tourney.
Only other player to finish with a gross score in the eighties was Ken Laushway of Stouffville. Third and fourth places for best gross went to Lorne Boadway and Ralph Corner. Best net score and a silver trophy went to Wilf Morley and Murray Wagg. Jim Abell and Keith Sutherland took the next three places for best net in that order. Prize for most honest golfer of the afternoon went to Bert Paisley. Assistant Hal Gibson handed out host Ted Topping and his prizes to everyone at the banquet and expressed the appreciation of everyone to the various clothing firms which made the wide prize distribution possible. Geo Stark spoke a few words of appreciation to the host on behalf of all present. Mr. Topping said that the whole event had been a real pleasure to stage and hoped that even a larger turnout would be on hand next year. He thanked the numerous golfers who had aided with the tournament as well as the management and owners of the golf club for the fine cooperation received. More than one hundred persons, golfers and their wives and lady friends attended the dance party in the evening to complete the pleasant day. BANTAM PLAYER SUFFERS BROKEN COLLARBONE
Twelve-year-old Darcy Forsyth of Stouffville suffered a broken collarbone in an accident during a Bantam hockey practice in the arena on Monday night. The injury occurred when he collided with two other boys. He had been on the ice only ten minutes. It was the season’s initial workout for the Bantams. The local lad was treated by Dr. Blair Mitchell and allowed to return home. A grade 7 student at the Summit View School, he expects to return to his studies on Monday. It is the first bone fracture in more than five years of minor hockey here. NEW CANADIAN STUDENT IS SR. GIRLS‘ PUBLIC SCHOOL CHAMPION
Thirteen-year-old Bernadine Terwoerds, an arrival from Holland only six months ago, is the new Senior girl’s public school field day champion. The pretty New Canadian grade 8 pupil rolled up a total of 23 points, second best in the entire meet. The two-school competition was held on Friday afternoon. It has previously been held in the spring but was switched to the fall on a trial basis.
The girls’ senior champ is a student at Summit View School. Beaming with pride at her accomplishment, she admitted that track and field events in Holland are not promoted to a great extent. She suggested that more importance is placed on physical training exercises and folk school activities. Volleyball and basketball are two of the main team sports practiced by girls. She noted that the rather cool weather didn’t seem to affect her championship bid. Her name will be inscribed on the Business and Professional Women’s Club Trophy. Previous winners have been Marjory Sobel, Shirley Symes and Clara Mullen. Bernadine expressed much enthusiasm over her Canadian school life. She hopes to advance into High School on completion of the June term. “I like it here very much,” she told the Tribune.
The Senior Boys championship was won by Jim Hill, student at the Summit View School. He chalked up 20 points. He was the Intermediate champ at the 1959 school field meet. His name will appear on the Home and School Club Trophy along with former winners Richard Hensman, Gary Byer, Peter Salmon and Glenn Jackson. Jim has been a prominent competitor at local school competitions ever since they were organized.
Other individual championships were won by Randy Mole (Int. Boys); Donna Knox (Int. Girls); Brian Boyd (Jr. Boys) and Faye Emerson (Jr. Girls). With the exception of Randy Mole, all champions are students at the Summit View School. Donna Knox, Intermediate girl’s champ topped all competitors at the meet with a total of 29 points.

October 29 1959 [Link](http://news.ourontario.ca/whitchurchstouffville/100164/page/1) ART LATCHAM PREPARING TO BUILD LIONS CURLING RINK FOR STOUFFVILLE
Mr. Arthur Latcham, Stouffville’s number one benefactor, has presented the Stouffville Lions Club with the proposal to erect a Curling Rink for the community. Mr. Latcham made this important announcement before the local club at a regular meeting on Monday evening. The meeting was attended by a number of merchants who were guests of the members.
Mr. Latcham said that while no concrete plans for the Rink had been prepared, it was that the ice would accommodate four to six sheets. Lion President Walter Pipher said that the club directors would meet with Mr. Latcham to work out details of the proposal for presentation at a later meeting.
Stouffville has already benefitted from Mr. Latcham’s generosity to the envy of every other community in the province. He made possible the floodlights in the ball park, the new grandstand, P.A. system, picnic shelter, refreshment booth, and latest of all, the swimming and wading pool. He is an honorary member of the Stouffville Lions Club, and a cairn in his honor was erected in Stouffville Park several years ago.
EDITORIAL DOUBLE WIND-UP
We have often seen switch-hitters in action on the baseball diamond but switch-pitchers are something entirely new in our books. We caught the first glimpse of such a performer in a recently concluded Youth for Christ series held in the Stouffville Park. Ken Nendick, a lanky moundsman with the Uxbridge finalists, had perfected such a system. He could throw equally well with either his left or right arm. The double delivery is apparently not a new pitching style in the Uxbridge area. Harry Taylor, father of Cardinal second baseman Lynn Taylor, is also able to toss a hard ball with equal speed and accuracy with either arm. To say the least, the delivery is confusing, both to the batter and to the umpire. To confuse the situation even further, Nendick can throw a slow ball with his left arm and a fast ball with his right. Is it legal? We questioned Stouffville’s “Peg” O’Neill concerning the legality of the delivery and he pointed out that it is quite legitimate. He noted, however, that in his experience he has seen it practiced on only one other occasion. MEN’S BOWLING LEAGUE

High Triple — Betty Wilkins 664 High Single — Marg Wagg 263 MIKE PAUL, NEW QUARTERBACK FOR HIGH SCHOOL; FORMER Q.B. “CUT”
The Management of the Toronto Argos may be having their troubles, but a comparable situation exists in the camp of the Jr. High School football team. The local entry in a four school loop had suffered three straight setbacks at the hands of Markham, Woodbridge and Pickering College when, according to reports, their ace quarterback, John Roxborough failed to report for a game. Mike Paul was shoved into the breach in a last-minute lineup shift. Stouffville were blanked by Markham 19-0. In spite of the score, Paul turned in a fine effort. Roxborough was immediately cut from the roster and to date has not been reinstated. Roxborough was to the Stouffville team like Ronnie Knox was to Toronto. He has decided to concentrate his efforts on catching a position with Unionville’s Jr. ‘B’ Jets. Since no other player had been coached on the handling of the quarterback position, his absence left a temporary vacuum in the lineup.
With or without their first string Q.B., the local team has failed to register a victory so far this season. They have lost to Markham on two occasions 25-1 and 19-0. They were defeated by Pickering College 14-6 in the schedule opener and dropped another contest to Woodbridge 13-6 on Oct 15. They played host to Pickering College on Wednesday afternoon of this week. They have one remaining encounter against Woodbridge on Nov. 5th.
Aside from the “fill-in” performance of quarterback Mike Paul, coach Rehill praised the offensive work of Roger Stover. He is currently the team’s top point-scorer. The club has been running into a number of disastrous penalties that have hurt their efforts. He told the Tribune that in at least two contests a couple of breaks would have meant a victory instead of a loss. Last season the team advanced to the Provincial finals. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
3 Manchester St., Hamilton, Ont., Sports Editor Stouffville Tribune
Dear Sir: A few days ago, I received a copy of the Stouffville Tribune through the mail, anonymously. Turning to the sports page, I discovered the reason why both I and the President of the P.W.S.U. received copies of this particular paper dated Sept 24th. I contacted the president and he has instructed me to bring you up to date on this matter. First of all, the President, Gar Landers received a complaint from the management of Wheatley team. Mr. Landers then wrote to the Umpire-In-Chief of the game who replied that there had been some confusion regarding the umpires’ decisions. From his report of the game, the president felt that matter in question had been clarified and so informed the Wheatley team.
Now the proper procedure for matters in which teams feel they have legitimate complaints is to file a protest. The proper procedure is outlined in the By-Laws under Protests. This was never done by the Wheatley team, although this does prove that nothing out of the ordinary happened at the game. I would just like to make it clear that no official action was taken by the Wheatley management. The P.W.S.U at no time feels that it can interfere in decisions made by umpires unless official protests are lodged. I think you can understand why this must be its policy. Secondly, the president was greatly disturbed to learn that no P.W.S.U. representative attended the game. He specifically instructed all conveners to be at all semifinal and final games or else appoint a suitable substitute. The convener (Past President, Mrs. Dorian Parker) came down with a severe cold and was unable to attend and contacted the P.W.S.U Secretary, Mrs. Shirley Wright. Unfortunately, neither of them were able to find a replacement from their area. The President had no knowledge of this until the following week.
Thirdly, it is the practice and the custom to present trophies to winners not on the playing field (as is done in the O.A.S.A.) but at the annual meeting in November. I trust that I have been able to give you a clearer picture of the Union’s stand in this matter reported in your paper. Personally, I would like to congratulate you on the excellent coverage of the final game. The Sports Page can help or hinder the promotion of girls softball and certainly I would adjudge that your report of other games helped to attract the largest crowd of the season.
Sincerely, Miss Joan Rapsavage, Treasurer P.W.S.U.
Mr. Sports Editor, Tribune, Stouffville,
Dear Sir: It is not often that I request space on your page for a letter, but I feel that this matter is affecting more than one parent in Stouffville and district. My complaint concerns the hour in which some of our minor league hockey boys are required to practice at the Arena. Both my husband and I feel that ten and eleven o’clock at night is far too late for ten and twelve-year-old lads to be out. We understand that this regrettable situation cannot be blamed on the management of the Minor Hockey Association. We would like to state that the Arena Board must have given the problem very little consideration or they too would have supported some other arrangement.
My boy loves hockey. To deprive him this playing privilege would be taking away his sole participation in team sport. We have paid his ten dollar entry fee, but both the money and the recreation may have to be sacrificed if his school work is to suffer. We still feel that his schooling must come first. I know I speak for dozens of other mothers and fathers when I say that the Stouffville Arena Co. is not putting itself out for minor hockey in town when it expects public school-age boys to take part in organized sport at such a ridiculous hour. We, as parents, feel that the Lions Club has done and is doing a wonderful job for hockey-loving youth. We feel, however, that they are getting a pretty raw deal for their worthy efforts. Perhaps the day will come when the arena will be crying out for persons to purchase ice time, rather than provide local teams with the “left-overs.” My husband is not a member of the Lions Club, but he supports their every campaign as much as our finances will permit. I would like to wish the club continued success in their minor sports promotions and only hope they may get a better break when another season rolls around.
Yours sincerely, Mrs. M. E. J.

Pictures FOOTBALL TEAM UPSETS PICKERING 19-6 FOR SEASON’S FIRST WIN
Stouffville’s victory famine with Pickering College was ended last week. The Junior football team appeared in championship form as they romped past a highly-rated opposition to the tune of 19-6. It was their season’s first victory in a nearly completed schedule and the first time they had ever subdued the College crew. Paced by Lloyd Graves, with two touchdowns and a single TD by Warren Hendricks, the locals turned in a fine team effort. The contest was partially marred by rough play. Agostini, the lone scorer for Pickering, was ejected from the game by the officials. Graves travelled 50 yards for his first touchdown. He romped 15 yards for the second tally. A third T.D. was called back. Warren Hendricks romped over the line on a reverse play. Roger Todd turned in a fine two-way effort. Barry McLean, Hilyard Manuel, Glenn Jackson and Roger Stover also looked good. Stouffville winds up the schedule with a home game against Woodbridge Thursday afternoon of this week. LIFE OF A CHEERLEADER NOT ALL GLORY AND GLAMOUR
How does it feel to stand out in a water-soaked football field in near-freezing temperatures and withstand all the elements clad only in a short pleated skirt, a matching sweater and a semicircular headband? That is the non-glamorous side in the consecrated life of a high school cheerleader.
“We don’t mind the weather,” eighteen-year-old Karen Lewis told the Tribune. Karen is the leader of the nine-girl group. She admitted, however, that it was not unusual for the members to become ill with the flu after one of these frigid outdoor sessions. The dark-haired grade 12 student has been a high school cheerleader for the past four years. Three other returnees this year are Jean Winterstein, Mardell Willis and Jeanette Montgomery. Other newcomers are Betty Ann Slack, Clara Mullen, Barbara Button, Jocelyn Button and Lynda Nolan.
Any girl in the entire school has an opportunity to become a cheerleader. A number of practice sessions are held and selections are made on athletic ability, voice culture and poise. Only six of the nine members are active at a single sports event. Their smart wine and white uniforms are purchased by the school’s student council. In previous years cheerleaders were mainly active during the football season. Their schedule has been extended, however, to include both basketball and volleyball games. They work out their gymnastic routines after regular school hours. The colourful aggregation is a top booster of high school morale. Their services would be sorrowfully missed at all athletic events.

NETS PAIR FOR CANADIENS
Brian Madill is off to a good start in the Bantam hockey house league this season. On Monday night, he scored two goals to lead the Canadiens to a 4-2 win over Buffalo. Billy Payne may be headed for one of his best years. He notched one goal and picked up two assists. Another Claremont player, Tom Benson collected two points with one goal and one assist. Keith Foreman teamed up with Bill Corner to score one Buffalo goal. Allan Meabry notched the other. Bill Lehman was credited with an assist.
Leafs 6, Hornets 1 The Bantam Maple Leafs rolled to a one-sided 6-1 win over Pittsburg in the first game of the doubleheader. Francis Haylow fired three goals. Bob Reid potted a pair and assisted on one. W. Chapman scored the other. Kenny Alda and George Smith picked up assists. Arlan Galbraith hit the target for the lone Pittsburg tally. JODY HOLDEN SCORES 2 FOR LEAFS
Jody Holden fired two unassisted goals on Thursday night to lead the Maple Leafs to a 4-0 shutout over Canadiens in the opening games of the Peewee minor hockey schedule. Pat Smith, another two-goal marksman for the Leafs, sewed up the win. Randy Mole picked up an assist on one of Smith’s tallies.
Wings 2, Hawks 1 Brent Weldon and D. Ferguson notched single goals to edge the Black Hawks 2-1. Neil Smith was credited with an assist on Ferguson’s tally. Paul Lintner scored the lone Hawk goal. Both Weldon and Ferguson perform with the Red Wings in the Peewee group. BROKEN GOAL POSTS FORCE FINAL GAME ON FOREIGN FIELD
A Halloween prank forced Stouffville’s Junior High School football team to take to the road on Thursday afternoon of last week for their final game of the inter-school schedule. Unknown parties smashed down the goal posts and replacements could not be obtained in time for the contest. They were broken beyond repair.
A foreign field at Thornhill held little handicap for the new-look local squad. They spotted their Woodbridge hosts a 6-0 lead then rallied with two touchdowns and a single point to win by a score of 13-6. In a previous meeting between the two clubs Woodbridge had posted a similar 13-6 victory. Markham, the group champs, will represent the district in forthcoming Provincial competition.
Thursday’s game was a thrilling contest. Hilyard Manuel, Allan Boyd, Roger Stover, Lloyd Graves, Glenn Jackson, Mike Paul, Warren Hendricks and Barry McLean turned in brilliant performances. Hendricks was credited with Stouffville’s first T.D. when he fell on the ball behind the Woodbridge line after Manuel had blocked a kick. The convert missed. Allan Boyd put Stouffville out front when he booted a tremendous 60-yard kick for a single point. Roger Stover sewed up the win with the final touchdown of the game. He romped 105 yards to score.
The turning point in the contest came in the fourth quarter. Woodbridge were parked on Stouffville’s one-yard line for a first down. Stouffville’s defences refused to yield. Woodbridge failed to score. Hilyard Manuel’s blocking power in this last-ditch stand was praised by coach Jim Rehill. “He saved the day,” he told the Tribune. Barry McLean converted two good catches and intercepted two. Hendricks intercepted one. Mike Paul quarterbacked the team to their second successive victory. LADIES BOWLING

Poly Minton was one of the officials at Unionville Jets home contest on Tuesday night. Polly Minton and Geo. Stark, both of Stouffville, attended a recent referee’s school at Bradford. Although he could obtain season-long work for the O.H.A., Polly has to date been content to handle only local community league contests and O.M.H.A. games. He is one of the most highly-recommended whistle-tooters in the business. STOVER, TOP SCORER
Roger Stover topped the High School Jr. football team in the point-scoring department with a total of 19 points. The regular schedule was completed on Thursday afternoon. Warren Hendricks came second with 12 points. He was tied with teammate Lloyd Graves. Allan Boyd had two.
Although the Stouffville team enjoyed little success in early games, they staged a sharp reversal of form in the closing games of the season. They had the second least number of points scored against them in the group. MEN’S BOWLING

Will Reesor, 84, of Church St., Stouffville, bagged a yearling doe at Nogle’s Creek near Bobcaygeon last week. The veteran hunter shot the animal at fifty yards with a 30-30 rifle. Mr. Reesor has been enjoying the annual trek into northern Ontario for the past fifty years. He has shot both bear and moose on previous excursions. Their party had killed only three deer at the conclusion of the first week’s hunt. Neil Patrick and Clayton Tarr were the other marksmen. Some of the other men in the group were — Ernie Button, Dr. John Button, Norm Baker, Frank Baker, Ed Baker and Vince Baker. Pictures MEHAFFEY SCORE TWO FOR LEAFS
Bruce Mehaffey has found his goalscoring eye again. The agile forward, a regular with Maple Leafs in the Peewee House League, fired two tallies on Thursday night of last week to lead his team to a 3-2 win over the Red Wings. Keith Betz, another hard worker, fired one. David Oldham notched two unassisted goals for the Wings.
Hawks 3, Rangers 0 Joey Forsyth was a two-goal marksman for the Black Hawks as they blanked the Rangers in a scheduled game. Paul Lintner counted one. Billy Mercer picked up an assist on Forsyth’s one tally.
Bruins 4, Canadiens 2 Boston’s four goals were evenly divided among four players on Thursday evening as the Bruins downed the Canadiens 4-2. Richard Yakeley, Eric Hamilton, Kent Winterstein and Donald Smith hit the target for the winners. Hamilton picked up an assist on Smith’s tally. Wagg collected both goals for the Canadiens. ARLAN GALBRAITH NETS 6 GOALS FOR HORNETS
Arlan Galbraith went on a one-night scoring spree on day evening and scored a total of six goals in a single game. The Pittsburg Hornets chalked up a 10-7 victory over Buffalo in a Bantam House League contest. Five of Galbraith’s tallies were unassisted efforts. Ross Brown picked up an assist on one. Brown also potted a pair all alone and fired another on a pass from Bill Harmon. David James notched a single. The Galbraith-Brown combination collected a total of ten points.
Bill Corner and Barry Hiltz provided much of the punch for Buffalo. Each fired two. Bill Lehman, David Winn and David Jackson each counted one. Bill Lehman picked up two assists. David Winn and Jim Goudie assisted on one.
Leafs 7 Canadiens 1 The Leafs chalked up their second win in a row with a victory over the Canadiens. Bob Reed and Wayne Chapman potted a pair. Eric Neilson fired one goal and assisted on one. Ronnie Castle and Francis Haylow counted singles. Brian Madill teamed up with Ted Redshaw to notch the lone tally for the Canadiens.

GOOD SPORTSMEN, GOOD CITIZENS, AIM OF MINOR HOCKEY ASSOCIATION “We want to provide as much hockey as possible for as many boys as possible,” stated Mr. Don Davis, Sec. – Treasurer of the Stouffville Minor Hockey Association. “We’re not necessarily desirous of building champions.” Mr. Davis’ remarks were prompted by a question posed by Head Coach, Bob Bangay on what should constitute the main objective of the Executive. A meeting of the minor hockey coaches and managers was held in the Summit View Public School on Wednesday evening of last week. “I want to keep hockey going in Stouffville,” replied coach Hal Gibson. “I have boys of my own coming on who may want to play some day.” “It’s a shame to see 18 and 19 year old boys with natural hockey ability unable to play well because they have never been properly coached,” commented coach Jack Watson. Head Coach, Bob Bangay informed the meeting that every boy in the entire minor league, regardless of ability, would be given an equal opportunity to play the game. “We must make every lad feel that he’s really wanted,” he said.
Advice to Coaches Head Coach Bangay proposed that all coaches in Peewee, Bantam, Midget and Juvenile should teach the same style of play. He warned however that individual players should be permitted to develop their own abilities. He advised giving more leeway to the younger peewee and bantam boys. “You may be the best theory man in the world but you may have trouble in getting knowledge across to your players,” he noted. Bangay warned that in order to be a successful coach he must have the respect and loyalty of his players. “Treat all players the same and in the House Leagues, give them all equal ice time,” he advised.
Conduct Important Each coach will be responsible for the conduct of his team, both on and off the ice. The members agreed that disciplinary action should be taken if a boy becomes involved in a fight on the ice or uses abusive language in the dressing room. All coaches favoured suspensions as penalties for improper conduct. The individual player’s name will be submitted to the Head Coach. Keith Sutherland suggested that each adult in charge of a team should set a good example for his boys. “We’re here to make sportsmen and citizens out of these lads, not to provide them with boxing gloves,” said Mr. Bangay. “Our job is to teach them to play hockey properly,” he continued. “Fans expect to see clean play at minor hockey games,” he said. “Rough conduct and penalties only slow up the contest.” He advised the coaches to restrain their feelings against the officials. “No one ever won an argument with a referee,” he continued. “We must show our boys that they must give and take in this game of hockey.”
Obey the Whistle “In any practice if the players fail to obey the command of the whistle, the Coach might just as well stay home in bed,” noted Mr. Bangay. He suggested that a coach should tell his players what to do, then show them, then give them an opportunity to practice it. He pointed out that skating, stick-handling, shooting, passing and checking are the five fundamentals of hockey. He advised against individualism; stick-handling inside a player’s own blueline, bodychecking “was on the out.” Head coach Bangay outlined the necessary requirements of a goalkeeper, defenceman, and a forward. He noted that in Peewee ranks, a number of players should be given an opportunity to guard the goal in an effort to select a “natural” netminder. He pointed out that improper skates or a poorly-angled stick could handicap a player’s efforts. He suggested that any goaltender performing on a Bantam all-star club and higher should be equipped with goal skates. He agreed however, that the cost of such equipment made it difficult for the average boy to acquire such an item.

PULLED GOALIE BACKFIRES IN BANTAM GAME MONDAY Coach Lloyd Jennings pulled Pittsburg goalie Tom Roberts from the net on Monday night in favour of an extra forward in an effort to tie the score, but the plan backfired. The Canadiens whipped a puck into the open cage to sew up a 3-1 victory. The Claremont trio of Tom Benson, Ted Redshaw and Bill Payne were the marksmen for the winners. Benson picked up an assist on Payne’s tally. Arthur Maxwell teamed up with Ted Redshaw and collected an assist on the goal. Arlan Galbraith fired the lone Hornet marker on a pass from linemate Ross Brown. Darcy Forsyth returned to the Pittsburg lineup after a four-week absence from the team. He suffered a broken collarbone during the season’s initial practice session. He performed at right wing with Brown and Galbraith. Wayne Chapman, one of the best young prospects in this year’s Bantam League, failed to score any goals although he led a number of rink-long rushes. He plays with the Canadiens. Bruce Browning turned in a fine job in the Canadiens’ net. Roberts also looked keen in the Hornet cage. He was especially good with his hands as he grabbed a number of hard shots.
Buffalo 9, Leafs 6 Bill Corner and Allan Meabry teamed up to score a total of seven goals for Buffalo as they downed the Maple Leafs 9-6 in a Bantam House League contest. Corner was a four-goal marksman. Meabry netted three and picked up one assist. Barry Hilts and Bill Lehman counted singles. Assists went to Keith Foreman (2), Jim Hill, Barry Hilts and Allan Meabry. Eric Neilson equalled Corner’s record. He collected four goals for the Leafs. Bob Reid and Ronnie Castle each fired one. Geo. Smith picked up a pair of assists. Castle teamed up with Neilson on three of his four goals.
BRUINS, HAWKS BATTLE TO 4-4 TIE The Bruins and Black Hawks battled to a 4-4 tie in a Peewee House League game on Thursday evening of last week. Eric Hamilton fired a three-goal hat trick for Boston. Donald Smith netted one goal and picked up a pair of assists. Paul Lintner was a two-goal marksman for the Hawks. Ken Torrence scored a single tally and teamed up with Joe Forsyth on another goal. Forsyth parked the puck in the net. The tie kept the Bruins in first place, one point ahead of the fast-climbing Red Wings.
Wings 4, Canadiens 2 David Ferguson paced the Red Wings to a 4-2 win over the Canadiens with a three-goal effort. David Oldham fired one tally and assisted on another. The Leafs’ loss to the Rangers and the Hawks’ tie with the Bruins allowed the Red Wings to slip into sole possession of second place. Blair Wagg collected both Canadian goals. Teddy Todd picked up one assist.
Rangers 5, Leafs 2 Ranger goals were split among five separate players as the last-place club chalked up their first victory of the season. They trounced the Leafs 5-2. Mo Jensen, Stephen Hall, Ian Wightman, Larry Foote and Peter Turner lit the light for the winners. Keith Betz potted a pair for the Leafs.

MUST LEARN TO SKATE At a recent meeting of the association, one coach commented that in playoff competition Stouffville’s players showed a noticeable lack of skating ability as compared with rival entries. The majority of other coaches present agreed with his observation. We accepted the statement with some doubt. On Thursday night of last week the truth of the statement was clearly substantiated. Stouffville’s Juvenile entry engaged Whitby in an exhibition tilt. It is true that Whitby are in a much higher class than our local club but in respect to skating ability, only a neutral observer might have wondered if a Junior team was playing a Midget entry. A large percentage of Stouffville lads could neither stop quickly, skate well, or even maintain their balance. They appeared to have a good mental grasp of the game but were not overly effective sitting on their pants. Boys of juvenile age should not have to be taught the basic rules of skating. This should come in Peewee and Bantam ranks. It would appear that too many lads today are dependent on a one-hour workout per week on artificial ice and have forsaken the backyard pond where good skaters and stick-handlers are really made.
JUVENILES BELTED BY WHITBY 9-1, HOOVER SCORES LONE GOAL A coach of a Juvenile team may be required to teach his club a varied repertoire of offensive and defensive plays, but he should not have to show them how to skate. That appears to be at least one chore set out for Stouffville coach Jack Watson on Thursday night of last week. He watched his fifteen-member squad stumble and stagger their way through sixty minutes of stop-time hockey in the Whitby arena. They suffered a 9-1 setback. Whitby will be placed in an A minor class. Stouffville will remain in ‘C’. Both teams will compete in the same group prior to the OMHA playoffs. Although it is difficult to judge the capabilities of a club in an early-season exhibition contest, it appeared that only five players out of the fifteen-man roster could meet the specifications required: Grant Foreman, Larry McMullen, Roger Stover, Allan Boyd and Bill Hoover showed good promise. Don Eddington put forth occasional bursts of speed. He tested two Whitby netminders with some labelled shots, although as many more missed the target. Whitby iced a strong skating team. Their squad had a noticeable weight advantage over Stouffville. Two defencemen, Don Ellis and Bob Adams, would tip the scales at over 220 pounds apiece. The forwards showed plenty of speed and completed their plays with hard and accurate shots.
Coach Watson started the game with a line comprising Grant Foreman at centre, flanked by Allan Boyd and Larry McMullen. Glenn Pennanen, Don Eddington and Garry Taylor worked on another line. Al Jackson combined with Bill Hoover and Roy Lewis for another trio. Keith McDowell and Wayne Pennanen were used on the first and second lines. Roger Stover, Bill Ratcliff, Grant Morgan and Bob Lehman performed on the rearguard. Glenn Jackson guarded the net.
Stouffville started fast and had a surprised Whitby pinned in their own zone during the early minutes. Their game-winning hopes suffered a setback when the first shot on the net slipped past goalie Jackson. Whitby’s Gary Stinson was the marksman. Before the period had ended, three more pucks hit the twine. Bill Hoover blinked the light for the lone Stouffville tally. He whipped Larry McMullen’s rebound into the goal. The locals put forth their best effort in the second frame and although outscored 2-1 they had as much or more of the territorial play. Whitby completed the rout with three unanswered tallies in the last period. Ken Ross and Stan Sharman each potted a pair of goals for the winners. Whitby outshot Stouffville 34-22 on the night’s play. Many of the Stouffville boys looked out of condition in the first period. A number appeared near collapse when they came in for relief. A temporary schedule has been drawn up and it is expected that the team will swing into regular league action this week. Whitby, Lindsay, Bowmanville, Port Perry and possibly Ajax and Uxbridge will comprise a local group.

BRENT WELDON NETS HAT TRICK FOR WINGS Red Wing forward Brent Weldon went on a three-goal scoring spree on Thursday night to lead Detroit to an 8-5 victory over Boston in a scheduled Peewee House League game. The trio of David Ferguson, Larry Plaskett and Brent Weldon collected the entire eight-goal production of the Wings. Plaskett equalled Weldon’s effort. Two of his tallies were unassisted. Another came on a pass from David Ferguson. Ferguson potted a pair and picked up three assists.
Donald Smith continued his goal-scoring spree with the Bruins. He fired four pucks into the Red Wing cage. Eric Hamilton counted one goal and assisted on two of Smith’s tallies.
Rangers 3, Canadiens 0 Morgens Jensen, Bill Goudie and Peter Turner scored single goals as the Rangers whipped the Canadiens 3-0. Danny Irwin picked up an assist on Turner’s tally. It was the fifth straight setback for the Canadiens. They have yet to register a victory.
Hawks 6, Leafs 5 The Black Hawks kept pace with the first place Red Wings by edging the Leafs 6-5. Ken Torrence was the top marksman for the winners with two goals. Single tallies came from the sticks of Harry Hilts, Alvin Lehman, Joe Forsyth and J. Horton. Hilts picked up a pair of assists. Pat Smith and Jody Holden each potted a pair of goals for the Leafs. Keith Betz fired one. All Leaf tallies were unassisted efforts.
LEAFS/BUFFALO BATTLE 7-7 TIE, REID NETS 3 Buffalo had a good chance to overtake the front-running Maple Leafs on Monday night in a regular Bantam House League game, but the two clubs battled to a 7-7 tie. The Leafs currently hold a two-point edge over their Buffalo rivals. Bob Reed fired a three-goal hat trick for the Leafs. Francis Haylow potted a pair and assisted on one. Ronnie Castle and Eric Neilson counted singles. Neilson picked up two assists. Bill Corner and Allan Meabry each scored two goals for Buffalo. Barry Hilts was also a two-goal marksman. Barry Hilts and Keith Foreman sank singles. Meabry, Corner, David Jackson and Jim Hill collected single points for assists.
Canadiens 4, Hornets 2 The scoring combination of Ross Brown and Arlan Galbraith was not enough to cope with the frontline power of Claremont’s Bill Payne, Brian Madill, Tom Benson and Ted Redshaw. Brown fired two goals. Galbraith picked up assists on both tallies. The Canadiens countered with four markers to win by a 4-2 count. Bill Payne, Ted Redshaw and Brian Madill netted singles. Musselman’s Lake’s Wayne Chapman fired one. Tom Benson picked up an assist on Madill’s goal. The win for the Canadiens moved them out of the cellar into third place. The Hornets are all alone in the group basement.
LOCAL SKATERS ENTERTAIN AT “POP” CONCERT Proud parents, fond relatives and friends were greatly entertained on Tuesday of last week by local figure skaters. The enthusiastic beginners especially took the crowd’s fancy as they participated whole-heartedly in their groups and as they were led in the Grand March by Betty Anne Slack. Highlight of the evening was the inspiring pairs number by the present Canadian Junior Champions, Debbie Wilkes and Guy Revel, both of whom are members of the local club. Guy also gave a sensational solo performance.
Due to illness, it was much regretted that Club Professional, Mrs. Judy Lawrence Gooderham, last year’s top star of the Ice Follies, was unable to entertain as planned. The excellence of her teaching after less than six weeks of club operation was shown by the dance demonstrations. Couples fairly covered the ice surface dancing the preliminary Canasta Tango and Dutch Waltz and about eight couples took part in the Fourteen-step, a Senior Bronze dance. Excellent footwork and precision was executed by a fast-skating eye-catching Cow-Girl court of 16 members. Jean Winterstein, 7th test skater, and Barbara Button, 3rd test skater each put on very fine solos, and Darlene Watson and Janice Smith, 2nd test skaters, a very good pair number.
Another feature this year was a demonstration, on patch, of what is required in the various figure tests. Those participating in this were Donna Knox, Ron Patrick, Janet Button, Barbara Button and Jean Winterstein. It was pointed out that in competitive skating up to 40% of a skater’s marking is determined by free skating ability and 60% of the marking by the skater’s execution of figures.
The “Pop” Concert, while giving parents and townspeople an idea of what goes on in the skating club, serves as a means of initiating the littlest members into public performance. It provides the incentive to learn by doing and builds up to the big effort and fine showmanship of the Annual Spring Carnival — this season’s to be held next April 2. Local club competitions are to be held at the arena the afternoon of Tuesday, December 29. Competitions chairman, Mrs. Ruth Winterstein, has already arranged for Canadian Figure Skating Association judges to be there. The children are now eagerly practising for this event and the older girls are helping the little ones to improve their efforts and make suitable choice of music. There are eight trophies which have been donated by a number of the Community Service Clubs and individuals who are interested in the wholesome development of the children.

GAME: THREE MAJORS
A Juvenile game between Stouffville and Port Perry was scheduled to start at nine o’clock on Thursday night was completed only a few before midnight. The contest was plagued by a stick and fist swinging feud that saw the official hand out a total of 59 minutes in penalties. There were 22 minors and 3 majors. The weary timekeeper found it difficult to keep pace with the penalty parade. At one point in the game there were six men in the box. Stouffville had a good chance to capture the two-point victory when Wayne Pennanen whipped a low drive into the Port cage at 10:57 of the third period. The tally tied the score at 4-4. At this stage of the game a number of local lads decided they’d watch the contest from the vantage point in the penalty box. They watched the visitor pump four unanswered goals into the Stouffville twine. The Scugog crew skated home with an 8-4 win.
Keith McDowell, an unusually mild-mannered puck-chaser, was on the end of the referee’s thumb throughout the entire night. He served a total of 14 minutes in the cooler, comprising two majors and two minors. He left for an early shower when he and Port defenceman Grant Menzies renewed their feud. They had previously been banished with double majors.
The Stouffville goals were divided among 4 separate players. Grant Foreman, Wayne Pennanen, Glenn Pennanen and Keith McDowell were the marksmen. Wayne Oake, Jm Carnochan and Wayne Powell each potted a pair for the Scugog crew. Bob Slack and Garry Geer fired singles. BLAIR WAGG NETS HAT TRICK FOR CANADIENS

EDITORIAL
THE SEPARATION POINT Juvenile ranks in the Ontario Minor Hockey League is one field of competitive winter sport that deserves a housecleaning from one end of the province to the other. This class appears to be the separation point for hockey players, the division for the chaff and the seed. The latter advances into O.H.A. while the remainder are scattered into a dozen and one rural clubs, T.H.L. leagues or community circuits. Those with even a lesser degree of talent merely hang ‘em and call it a day.
From our vantage point, we would suggest that the majority of Juvenile teams boast too little good seed and too much chaff. We are not pointing a finger only at our local entry, but at dozens of similar clubs across Ontario. We have witnessed few Juvenile games, either this season or in previous years, when the penalty box has not been packed to capacity by stick-wielding warriors. We feel that too much stress is placed on bodily contact. The contest usually ends up in a two-team brawl.
A good example of this fact was a game in Bowmanville last week. Uxbridge juveniles were the visitors. The contest was never completed when both clubs hooked up in a free-for-all. Prior to the rhubarb, 23 penalties had been handed out, including three majors. Gary Elson, one of the top players in this district, was given a match misconduct penalty and faces an automatic suspension.
The game here with Port Perry was quite similar and could easily have ended with the same result. Fifty-nine minutes in penalties were handed out. In spite of this, the referee failed to submit any special report to the powers that be. Only through suspensions can this rowdyism be quelled.
HAYLOW BREAKS UP BANTAM GAME WITH THREE GOALS A six-man Canadien team nearly staged the biggest upset of the Bantam House League schedule on Monday night. With only minutes remaining in their game with the Maple Leafs, they held a 4-2 lead. At this point, Francis Haylow took over. He whipped three pucks into the Canadien net. All tallies were unassisted efforts. Brian Madill closed the gap with a goal on a clean-cut breakaway, but they could not notch the equalizer.
The six Canadien boys played the entire fifty minutes. Ted Redshaw, Tom Benson and Kenny Aida put them out front 3-0. The Leafs struck back on goals by Ronnie Castle and Wayne Chapman, but Ken Aida and Tom Benson teamed up to make it 4-2. The roof fell in on Canadiens’ chances when Francis Haylow netted a three-goal hat trick. The final score was Leafs 6, Canadiens 5.
Buffalo 8, Pittsburg 7 Bill Corner caught fire on Monday night to lead Buffalo to a tight 8-7 win over Pittsburg. The forward sizzled four pucks into the Hornet cage. Single tallies came from the sticks of Jim Hill, David Slack, Keith Foreman and Allan Meabry. Bill Lehman, Bill Corner and David Jackson collected assists.
For the Hornets, the two-some of Arlan Galbraith and Ross Brown dominated the scoring. Galbraith fired five. Brown potted a pair. He also had three assists. Bill McNelly, Ian Galbraith and Robert Mole also picked up points in the assist department.
JUVENILES BOW TO WHITBY 3-1 The Stouffville Juvenile team may be starting to move. After a rather disappointing start, the local squad stepped into Whitby on Saturday night and held the ‘A’ class club to a 3-1 verdict. It was Stouffville’s best performance of the young season.
Neither team scored a goal until well into the second period. The three tallies came only minutes apart. Larry McMullen hit the target for Stouffville. Linemates Grant Foreman and Lynn McMullen picked up assists. Roger Beazley worked between the pipes in the locals’ cage. Stouffville outshot Whitby on the night’s play.
NEILSON NETS WINNER FOR BANTAM TEAM Eric Neilson fired the game-winning goal into the Uxbridge net on Monday night, to give the Stouffville Bantams a tight 6-5 win in an exhibition contest. In addition to netting the winner, the Ballantrae marksman also counted an additional tally and picked up one assist.
The trio of Francis Haylow, Ross Brown and Bill Corner notched three of Stouffville’s six goals. Haylow was the trigger man on each occasion. Wayne Chapman fired a single. He picked up two assists. St. John hammered three pucks into the Stouffville cage for Uxbridge. Leask potted a pair.
The two-period game was a seesaw battle. Uxbridge held a 3-2 edge at the end of the first frame. Stouffville outscored their rivals 4-2 in the last period.
TWO HAT TRICKS Two members of Stouffville’s Midget entry fired three-goal hat tricks on Wednesday night of last week to beat Port Perry in an exhibition contest. Centre-men Warren Hendricks and Roger Forsyth blinked the light to register the victory.

Stouffville’s Alex Wilkins and Claremont’s Jim Cherry were each pegged with a pair of trips to the sin bin. Stan Benson, Claremont defenceman used his 210 pound frame to good advantage and handed out some jolting checks. Stouffville’s Alex Wilkins and Keith Borean were on the receiving end of bone-shaking jolts. Jim Cruikshank rocked Stouffville’s Ron Graham. A near-fistic encounter broke out in the first period between Normie Neile of Stouffville and Jim Cherry of Claremont. They were separated before the skirmish resulted in a free-for-all.

After a number of shaky performances earlier in the season, he is currently looking as good as any goal-guardian in the group. Stouffville’s Geo. Martin, one of the best goal-stoppers in the league, played equally well. Evans made a brilliant glove catch in the first period on a scorching drive from Norm Neile. He also looked good on a drive by Bruce McDowell in the dying minutes of the game. Martin blocked Steve Wideman and Vern Ferguson in spectacular fashion. Claremont outshot Stouffville 18-16.

On Thursday evening, Feb. 4, over 200 plowmen and friends met in Trinity United Church, Uxbridge in honour of Robert Timbers, who won the Canadian Tractor Plow Championship at the International Plowing match at Dundas in October, 1959.
Mr. Russell Morrison, well- known plowman from Beaverton, was chairman for the banquet. A number of people addressed the meeting paying tribute to Robert Timbers on his very fine win and also wishing him success at the World Match in Italy in October 1960.
Those who addressed the meeting were mr. Wm. Heron, Warden Ontario County; Mr. John McGillivray, Reeve of Scott Township; Mr. F. Lashley, Secretary- Manager of the Ontario Plowmen’s Association; mr. R. Frey, representing Imperial Oil; Mr. Hubert Avery, Director of the Ontario Plowmens Assn.; (He will also be trip manager to Italy this fall.); Mr. W. Clark, Warden of York County and Director on the Ontario Plowmen’s Association; <r. Alex McKinney, President of the Canadian Plowing Council.
Musical numbers were presented by the Trio — Miss Karen Timbers, Miss Marilyn Dixon and Miss Peggy McLean. Their accompanist was Miss Mona Armstrong.
Mr. H. L. Fair, Agricultural Representative, delivered the presentation address. mr. Wesley Crosier, Secty-Treasurer of the North Ontario Association presented Mrs. Timbers with a bouquet of red roses. mr. Clarence Breen of the North Ontario Association made the presentation of the Occasional Chair to Mr. Timbers.
The presentation address is as follows:
“How proud we are of title! Your achievement brings honour to your home, your community and to Ontario county. It has not been without effort. You have achieved success with match plowing and you have set a record that will be very difficult for any plowman in Canada to surpass.
Your first major win came in 1941, when you were member of the winning Inter-County plow team at the International Plowing Match in Peterborough. This was followed with further success in 1946 and again in 1948 when you won the Silver Medal and the trip to Great Britain.
In the last seven years your plowing career climaxed by the winning of several major awards. In 1953 you won the Canadian Championship at the International Plowing Match in Cobourg and also represented Canada the same year in the World Match at Cobourg. Again in 1954 you represented Canada at the World Match in South Ireland. In 1955 you again won the Canadian Championship at the International Plowing Match at Leamington and represented Canada at the World Match in England in 1956.
Last year you competed again in the International plowing match winning the Canadian championship for the 3rd time. You are a worthy champion to represent Canada at the world match in Italy this fall.
Whether you win or not, we know that you will do your best and bring honour to Canada. Ee know that you attribute much of your success to the splendid coaching that you have received from your father.
Win Timbers is a champion in his own right, having won championships in both high cut plowing with horses and in tractor plowing. At the present time he is performing a great service to agriculture by coaching junior plowmen and by judging at County and International plow matches
A wife plays an part in the success of her husband. To you Leatrlce, we express our appreciation with these flowers for your loyalty and to help Robert in becoming a three-time Canadian Tractor Plow Champion and to you, Robert. we would express our happiness in your victory with this “occasional chair.” We hope you will find much pleasure in its use.’”

Picture EDITORIAL FAVOUR FACE MASKS
Although the OMHA has not committed itself on the pros and cons of goaltender face masks, we fee it is a necessary piece of equipment, especially for young lads in Peewee and even Bantam ranks. No boy is a born hockey player, whether he plays on the forward line, on defence or in the net. Some may progress faster than others but all must go through the same stages of learning.
It is regrettable that during learning stage, a boy in the goal must be subjected to injury all for the want of a head guard. Although the majority of Peewee performers have some difficulty in lifting the puck off the ice, there are a few exceptions to this rule. It would take only one direct drive or even a deflected shot to injure a lad permanently. No boy or parent can afford to take this risk.
It is with some duress that a coach will coax a young boy to stand between the pipes. He feels some responsibility towards his protege. Armed with a face guard, the chance of injury would be almost negligible.
Only recently a local sports promoter, Mr. Tat Alda, presented the Stouffville Hockey Association with such a piece of equipment. We hope it is given an honest trial. If successful more should be purchased. IT’S A WHOPPER
The biggest reported catch of the current ice-fishing season was pulled form the waters of Lake Simcoe last week by Mr. Arnold Brillinger of Stouffville.

Stouffville’s Midget team carry a three goal lead into the second game of the group play- off finals when they square off against Uxbridge here on Thursday night. They won the opener on Monday by a score of 5-2.
For two complete periods the teams battled to a scoreless draw. Barry McLean hit the target on passes from Peter Stover and Roger Forsyth at 3:08 of the final frame. Uxbridge roared back to even the count only eight seconds later. Morrison blinked the light from Ballinger.
Jim Knox made it 2-1 and Roger Forsyth lengthened the Stouffville lead with McLean and Stover picking up assists. Ballinger notched Uxbridge’s second goal.
Roger Forsyth sewed up the important Stouffville victory with two goals in a row. Line- mate Barry McLean assisted on both tallies.
It was not an easy win for the local squad. The Stouffville boys appeared to be hampered by soft ice and their passing plays were not working smoothly. Glenn Jackson turned in a fine effort in the Stouffville net. He made a number of good saves, especially in the first and second periods when the locals’ frontline were unusually quiet.
The series is two games, with goals to count. The winner advance into the first round of Provincial playoff competition. Uxbridge knocked Port Perry out of the running to earn a shot at the group honours. Stouffville completed the schedule in first place to receive a bye into the final round.. BANTAMS ENTER O.M.H.A.

Pictures MIDGETS BEAT UXBRIDGE 8-5 ON ROUND TO ENTER OMHA PLAYOFFS
A battling Uxbridge club came very close to putting sixteen local Midget players on the early-season retired list in a seesaw group final playoff game here on Thursday night. Stouffville held their northern rivals to a 3-3 tie. Coupled with a 5-2 victory in the series opener, the homesters took the round by a score of 8-5. They now advance into the Provincial playoffs. Their next opposition will likely be Pickering.
Midway through the final frame, Uxbridge held a 3-1 lead. They trailed on the round 6-5. Out of the confusion of foolish penalties, poor passes and erratic shooting, Stouffville rearguard Peter Stover pounced on a loose puck. He charged up the ice like a runaway steamroller, lost the puck, retrieved it again, wheeled around the goaltender and slipped the disk into the corner of the cage. Right then and there was the game. Stover’s timely tally came with team mate Stan Feasby in the penalty box.
Uxbridge ran into a rash of minor penalties in the dying minutes of the contest, which hindered any attempted rally. With less than four minutes to go in the game, Jim Wagg blinked the light on a pass from Roger Forsyth. Uxbridge were a man short at the time. Jim Knox was the other Stouffville marksman. Brian Morrison, John Brown and Jack Ballinger were the Uxbridge goal-getters.
On the night’s play, Uxbridge were equally as sharp as the Stouffville squad. They never stopped trying even to the final whistle. Goalie Barry Kelland turned in a fine effort. He blocked 30 shots. His style was highly similar to Stouffville’s ace puck-stopper Glenn Jackson. Both are good “glove men.”
Jackson handled 22 drives. Gerry Harrison tested him twice, once in the early minutes of the first period and again in the final frame. Jackson outguessed him both times. Kelland looked good on shots by Warren Hendricks, Roger Forsyth, Jm Wagg and Peter Stover. Hendricks bounced a drive off the post in the second period.
There were thirteen penalties in the contest. Seven to Stouffville and six to Uxbridge. At one point in the game, Stouffville had two men in the sin bin, Peter Stover and Stan Feasby. Uxbridge failed to score.
Almost 200 fans witnessed the contest. Centreman Roger Forsyth suffered a badly cut hand but played in spite of the injury. MIDGETS BEAT PICKERING ON “SOFT ICE” TUESDAY

The locals sported their new red and white uniforms for the contest.
Fertile put Pickering out front 1-0 in the second period after both clubs had battled through a scoreless first frame. Warren Hendricks tied the score and Peter Stover fired the would-be winner. Barry McLean put the victory in the bag with Stouffville’s third rally.
The Stouffville team carries a two goal lead into Thursday’s contest. To date the homesters have not played up to midseason expectations and coach Hal Gibson has threatened some drastic changes in his lineup if the boys don’t “pull up their socks.”
Coach Gibson told the Tribune that he is confident his club is capable of an improved brand of hockey.
“They all want to let “George” do it, but George doesn’t play on our team this season,” he said. BANTAMS WIN PLAYOFF OPENER 5-2

Stouffville’s Bantam team carried a three goal lead into the second game of the playoffs with Pickering Thursday night. In less than three minutes, they had extended their lead to five goals. At the final whistle they were on the short end of an 8-3 score in the game and 11-8 on the round. It marked the end of the playoff road for the local team. The boys will continue to compete in their regular House League schedule.
The first-string Stouffville trio of Bill Payne, Bill Corner and Ross Brown contributed the entire scoring punch for the homesters. Payne potted a pair. Corner fired one. Gould was a four-goal marksman for Pickering. Allen, Dean, Colley and Vesters were the other goal-getters for the winners. MIDGETS WHIP PICKERING 8-1 SPARKED BY KNOX; EJECT TWO PLAYERS
Jim Knox rifled home three goals and his mates collected five more to humble Pickering 8-1 on Thursday night in an OMHA Midget ‘C’ playoff contest. The one-sided win, coupled with an earlier 3-1 victory, knocked the visitors out of the running.
Two Pickering players, Ross Fertile and Larry Friel were banished from the contest with game misconduct penalties, when Referee Polly Minton took exception to their verbal remarks. Fertile was the first to get the gate. He left the ice late in the first period. He was joined by Fiel midway through the final frame.
Sixteen penalties were handed out, eight to each club. Two Stouffville players were injured in the rough and rugged tilt. Barry McLean suffered a cut mouth and Warren Hendricks was dazed when his head hit the ice in a goalmouth collision. Neither boy left the game.
Stouffville speedster, Jim Knox was in high gear. He rapped 3 pucks into the Pickering twine in the first period. Keith McDowell, Dave Bate, Grant Pascoe, Warren Hendricks and Roger Forsyth were the other marksmen for the winners. Gerry Botten blinked the light for Pickering’s lone tally. It came with less than four minutes to go in the game and spoiled a shutout bid by goalie Glenn Jackson.
Peter Bosak in the Pickering cage was the visitor’s best performer. He blocked a total of 31 shots. Jackson in the Stouffville net handled only 17. Six of these drives came in the final frame.
In the second period alone, Bosak turned aside direct drives by Dave Bate, Jim Knox, Warren Hendricks, Barry McLean and Garry Gall within the short space of two minutes. In the third period he stopped Stouffville captain, Warren Hendricks in a spectacular rink-long dash. In addition. he blocked Hendricks rebound shot. The agile puck-juggler made no mistake on his next bid. His shot caught the top corner of the cage.
Rightwinger, Dave Bate was given an opportunity to display his shooting power. He blasted one drive into the twine and sizzled other shots off the back boards with prolific force.
Gregg Wall was one of Pickering’s best frontline men. Gerry Botten, when not in the penally box, showed brief flashes of good form. At times he wielded his stick like an Indian war club. Grant Pascoe played one of his best games to date. Peter Stover was his usual tower of strength on the Stouffville rearguard.
The Pickering team was coached by ex-Clipper player, Grant “Stubby” Edwards. He roused the ire of the officials and was threatened with eviction. Stouffville now meets Bobcaygeon in the next playoff round. MERCHANTS RALLY TO BEAT PEACH’S 5-3
Stouffville Merchants and Peach’s hooked up on Tuesday night in a thrilling see-saw battle. Don Gibson’s squad came from behind to register a 5-3 victory in the quarter final playoff opener. The two clubs will square off again next week at 10:45 p.m.
An underestimated second string line of Harry Young, Ron Graham and Lindo Borean sparked the Stouffville attack. They counted four of the teams five tallies. Borean, with a pair, paced the threesome. Young and Graham each notched singles.
Graham, an accurate marksman in important contests throughout the season, played his best game to date. He collected two additional assists. Howard Forgie fired the other goal for the winners on passes from line-mates Bob Clodd and Bill Allan.
Peach’s line of Jim Harrison, Lawrence Gayman and Murray Lewis matched anything that Stouffville could throw on the ice. Harrison scored twice. Reesor counted one.
Peach’s goalie, Jim Johnston played a superb game between the pipes. He blocked 25 shots. Martin in the Merchant’s cage handled only10.
Two breakaway bids were muffed by Peach’s. Martin made a fine sliding save on John Reesor. He stopped linemate Don Thomas on a similar rink-long dash. He also looked good on a drive by Murray Grove.
Johnston was a standout on shots by Normie Meale and Howard Forgie. There were five penalties in the game, three to Stouffville and two to Peach’s. JUNIORS HUMBLE ST. ANDREWS 51-26
Stouffville Junior High School basketball team humbled St. Andrews College ‘A ‘team 51-26 on Wednesday of last week in a scheduled contest. Roger Stover collected 26 points to pace the locals’ scoring parade. Brian Wilkes scored 11; Warren Hendricks 6; Lloyd Graves 4 and Allan Boyd 4. At the end of the first quarter, Stouffville held a 25-6 lead.
With one game left in the current schedule, the homesters have a won 5, lost 5 record. They were slated to round out the pre-playoff season with a game against Thornhill this weak.
Roger Stover, the team’s top scorer, has collected a total of 180 points. His record high last season was 119. Brian Wilkes has enjoyed a good season with 111.
Midgets Lose —
The Midgets didn’t fare as well as the Juniors. They lost to St.Andrews by a score of 25-21. Jim Miller counted 5 pts; Lloyd Gayman 4; Allan Snider 4; John Smithson 4 and Bill Corner 2. The score was dead locked at 21-21 with only one minute to play. The visitors snapped the tie and held the lead. SUZUKI GETS WINNING GOAL IN NEAR UPSET
Ballantrae will never come any closer to winning a playoff game than on Tuesday night. Only a late period tally by forward Ted Suzuki saved Ringwood from sharing a split in the points. They squeezed out a 2-1 victory.
Ringwood didn’t deserve to win. They were outplayed in both periods and outshot 18-9. Like Greenwood, in the first game, they appeared disorganized. Their passing attack was erratic and they lacked any sustained drive, that had featured in some of their previous games during the regular schedule.
Ross Madill was a potent winger when inside the Ballantrae blue-line. Joe Lewis showed flashes of frontline speed. Many of the other players merely went through the motions.
Ballantrae outskated Ring-wood throughout the entire game. Their shooting was rather weak and many passing plays fizzled out around the net. Ron Stewart was a standout. Ray Atkinson, Frank Hendy and Doug Forfar played well. Hendy suffered an injury to his face early in the first period but returned after receiving first aid.
Ballantrae lacked any potent power play. When Ringwood was shorthanded, Gord Paisley jolted the opposition with some heavy checks. Jim Coultice also tossed his 200 pound frame around with telling effect.
Ross Madill and Ted Suzuki blinked the light for the winners. Ron Stewart fired the lone Ballantrae goal. Don Haynes bounced a ringing drive off the goal post. Dave Fockler has goalie Mortimer at his mercy in the final frame but he couldn’t get his shot away. GALBRAITH NETS 4 FOR HORNETS
Allan galbraith sparked the Pittsburg Hornets to an 8-2 win over the Canadiens in a Bantam House League game on Monday night. He also picked up one assist for a total of five points.

Bill Payne and Fred Moore were the marksmen for the Canadiens. Tom Benson picked up an assist on Payne’s tally.
Leafs 5, Buffalo 5
Francis Haylow and Eric Neilson teamed up to score two goals apiece for the Leafs as they battled the Buffalo team to a thrilling 5-5 draw. Bob Reed counted the other Leaf tally.
Bill Corner scored two for Buffalo. Singles came from the sticks of Jim Hill. Dave Slack and David Winn. Allan Meabry picked up an assist on Slack’s tally. MEN’S BOWLING LEAGUE

What happened in the thirty minutes that followed was nightmare of flashing red light that never stopped burning until Claremont had their straight victory tucked away in their duffle bags. Seven times in a row they bulged twine while Stouffville men laid back and watched the defending champs cut their defences to ribbons.
Harry Young, a never-say-die guy raised the Merchants’ spirits slightly at 13:51 of the final frame but it was too little and too late. Two quick Claremont goals, only three minutes apart locked the door. A win on Tuesday night for Lloyd Pascoe’s boys will end the series and the season.

A Farewell to Football —
Writing an epitaph for a football season that has ended in failure can be a disheartening thing for ail concerned; there-fore this inscription will be a brief one. Although the word “failure” will grate harshly on the ears of the football players, seven straight losses cannot unfortunately be deemed a successful season. The seventh and final loss last Wednesday to Pickering College put the Stouffville team out of its misery by a score of 34-2.
With our football season officially ended, the question being asked is how a team with one of the heaviest lines and one of the fastest backfields in the league could be defeated by such scores as 47-0; 34-2 and score only two touchdowns itself in seven games.
A number of autopsies have been performed with the results showing that the teams failure to function as a unit was a major factor in its downfall. A lack of confidence and self discipline coupled with numerous injuries were given as other causes.
It’s all over now, however, and hopeful glances are being cast towards this year’s basketball entry. Whether or not the teams will make up for the football loss will be come evident in the next few weeks.
Volleyball —
Lo and behold! The Girl’s Volleyball Team brought home a victory last week when they defeated Bayview High and our arch-rivals Markham at a tournament held at Thornhill. The Junior team put down Bayview but lost out to Markham, while the Senior outfit was successful in vanquishing both rivals.
Standout Stouffville performances were turned in by Marion Byer and Noreen Burkholder of the Juniors and by Betty Ann Slack and Susan Ogilvy of the Seniors. Congratulations, ladies!

Cross-Country Race —
A new and valuable addition to our athletic curriculum this year was a cross-country race. The cross-country is a particularly interesting and exciting event because not only does it require speed and stamina, but a great deal of strategy also.
The race run last week was organized under inter-form competition and was divided into Junior and Senior events. Each form entered a team of 6 contestants as a runner crossed the finish line his place was added to the team’s score. The team with the lowest score (the highest placed runners) was the winner.
The course, nearly a mile long, was a rough one. Runners had to contend with muddy uneven ground, waterholes, long grass and a brisk headwind. It took the runners from the east end zone of the football field out to the 9th line, back again along Edwards street and then around the school and back to the starting point. Judges were stationed at various points along the course to guide the runners and to ensure a fair contest.
In the Junior event 49 runners took the field in a close race that saw Travis Sugden cross the finish line first after a terrific back-stretch duel with Larry McMullen. The time was 4 minutes 51 4/10 seconds.
Pete Stover finished 3rd, followed by Ole Neilson 4th, Han de Heuse 5th, Barry McLean 6th, John Riddle 7th, Bob Lee 8th, Lynn McMullen 9th and Albert Seabrooke 10th.
The runners from 10c proved to be the best as they took top honours with 26 pts. 9E was second with 44, 10B 3rd with 46, 9B 4th with 48 and 9C 5th with 63.
In the Senior competition, 21 runners were entered from grades 11 and 12. After pounding down the homestretch, neck and neck, Warren Hendricks stole first place from Roger Stover in a photo finish that was decided by a fraction of an inch.
His time was 4 minutes 51 6/10 seconds. Jim Knox was a close third followed by John Smithson 4th and Mike Paul 5th. Riley O’Connor was 6th, Murray Ferguson 7th, Glen Barkey 8th, Ernie Miller 9th and Wayne Pennanen 10th.
The over all winner was decided by as narrow a margin of victory as the finish had been. Gr. 11A’s 19 was one point better than grade 12’s 20 as they took first place in the competition.
Mr. Rehill, who organized the event was pleased with the interest shown by the participants. He congratulated them on their efforts and commented that it was an excellent showing by all.
It seems that the 1st annual Stouffville District High School cross-country race was a tremendous success.
Basketball —
Basketball season got under way last week as 28 midget try-outs invaded the gym for their first practice. Mr. Hammond who will handle the coaching chores with the assistance of Roger Stover and John Corner expressed hope for a good season.
“We have a good number of tryouts, a lot of height and the result should be a much better team than in previous years”.
Mr. Hammond’s practice schedule calls for basketball fundamentals until December. He also mentioned that basket ball players must pass their Christmas exams in order to be eligible for the team. We hope this fact will not decrease the number of tryouts.
Girls Volleyball —
In volleyball action last week the Senior team defeated Woodbridge and Bradford to make them champions of the ‘B’ league. Unfortunately the team members were not registered in the league and due to this technicality our eligibility is being disputed. Whether or not Stouffville will remain the official champion has not yet been decided. PETE LACEY FIRES HAT TRICK FIR THE MERCHANTS
Pete Lacey picked up three goals for the Stouffville merchants on Friday night and paced his club to their first point of the Community Hockey League season. In spite of his efforts, the team had to settle for a 6-6 tie with Claremont.
The lanky Lacey working on a line with Howard Forgie and Jim Harrison potted his initial tally at 8:20 of the first period and collected two more in the final frame.
Gord Comport, one of the most dangerous men on the ice, counted one goal. Harrison and Forgie scored the others. NETMINDER GLENN JACKSON IN HOCKEY TUG-OF-WAR
Stouffville netminder Glenn Jackson, is currently involved in a hockey tug-of-war with the introduction of a possible Juvenile entry here this season. He is being sought for goaltending duties with that club.
He has, however, been signed with the Unionville Jets as the teams sub-goalie. Their first-string puck-stopper is Rick Charron.
Jackson signed with Unionville before any official release was obtained from Stouffville. He performed with the Midget club last winter and played a big part in their march to the Ontario finals.

Hopes of obtaining the services of Glenn Jackson faded on Tuesday when the agile puck-stopper applied for his official release. He will go to Unionville with the Junior ‘B’ Jets.

More action on the basketball front resulted in two double victories for Stouffville last week.
On Tuesday, the Junior and Senior girls teams trounced Bayview by scores of 25-1 and 38-3. Noreen Burkholder and Marilyn Pattenden of the Juniors and Marion Byer, a senior player, were largely responsible for two of the most decisive victories ever recorded by Stouffville teams.
Two more decisive victories were claimed by the boys’ teams when they played Pickering College on Friday afternoon.
Stouffville suffered some disastrous setbacks at the hands of the Pickering College football team this season, but it would seem that the success of our basketball entries has apparently evened the score.
In the Midget game Stouffville swarmed all over theP.C. squad to the tune of 30-7.
Vic Sharp stepped out of the shadows of teammates Bill Corner and Jim Hill to ring in 11 points for the Stouffville cause. Corner and Hill made their presence known by some fine floor play and a good chunk of the scoring.
In the junior contest the Stouffville team got off to a flying start when their well-practiced fast break made the score 8-0 in the first two minutes of play.
They continued to dish it out until they had hammered their opponents into submission by a score of 51-21.
Brian Wilkes topped the score-sheet with 22 points while Warren Hendricks was good for 10 and Barry McLean 8. MERCHANTS BEAT CLAREMONT
The Stouffville Merchants scored three goals in six minutes on Friday night to beat Claremont 6-3.
The two teams were deadlocked at 3-3 at the midway mark of the final frame.
Bert Dickson fired the would-be winner, his second tally of the night. Howard Forgie and Pete Lacey added insurance markers.
It was also Lacey’s second of the game. Guy Weeks netted a single.

Stouffville’s hopes for a basketball championship this year glowed a little brighter last week when both Midget and Junior boys teams defeated Bayview.
Our teams now share the first place berth with two other challengers as the stouffville dream of having both teams in the winners circle at the end of the season, comes closer to reality.
The Midget game nearly went down as a loss for Stouffville when the wine and white squad couldn’t get its bearings on Bayview’s extremely large floor.
They trailed 6-4 at half time and 11-8 at the three quarter mark.
Stouffville was able to pull it out of the fire in the last few minutes however as baskets by Jim Hill, Vic Sharp and Robert Mole turned a near defeat into a 14-11 win.
The Juniors looked as if were headed for the same as the low-scoring Midgets when the first quarter cf their game produced a meagre 5-4 lead.
Nevertheless, they were able to adapt themselves to the playing conditions and soon some accurate shooting by Brian Wilkes, Warren Hendricks, John Smithson and Barry McLean had rilled up an easy 35-15 victory.
The win was an important one for Stouffville. Other teams in league have had difficulty defeating Bayview but Stouffville’s decisive margin is a indication of future success. PORT RALLIES TO WIN 5-2
Port Perry peewees spotted Stouffville two goals on Thursday night, then rallied to score three-in-a-row to edge the homesters 3-2.
Pat Smith blinked the light for Stouffville at the four minute mark of the first period on a pass from Peter Turner.
Danny Irwin made it 2-0 with Brian Boyd picking up an assist. Irwin’s tally came at 2:10 of the second frame. MEN’S BOWLING LEAGUE

AIR CADET ACTIVITIES (by Cadets Noble and Baxter)
THE AIR CADEY PROGRAM Though the Air Cadet League of Canada is a civilian organization, it provides the boys with a taste of military life even though it may be only for a few hours a week. It also gives the cadet self-discipline and a sense of responsibility. On the whole, it gives the cadet a better knowledge of his country as well as making him a trustworthy, honest citizen of the future. The cadet learns such skills as flying, airmanship drill, marksmanship, navigation as well as many other activities. These activities prepare him for whatever role he may play in the future, whether it be military or civilian. Never forget that today’s teenager is tomorrow’s leader.
Last January, No. 91, Stouffville District Squadron was established. Some sixty-three boys enlisted, forming the Flight “A” and Flight “B” Parades. Weekly meetings are held at the Stouffville Legion Hall on Tuesday evenings from seven to nine-thirty. Because the extreme interest which the squadron has aroused, we must salute the townspeople and our Commanding Officer, who have given generously of their free time to help the squadron. A special ‘salute’ must be given to our leaders, Flt./Lt. Jan Falington, F/O Harry Heatherington and P/O Hugh VanKoughnet and P/O Wm. Kingston as well as our civilian instructor Mr. Dave Manifould. All these men have donated their time and their money to get the squadron under way.
The squadron has, on various occasions welcomed visitors such as Reeve Ken Wagg Mr. J. B. Smith, Secretary-Manager of the Ontario Provincial Committee for the Air Cadet League of Canada; W/O Bruce Shaw, drill instructor at the RCAF Station, Camp Borden. When Mr. Smith and W/O Shaw visited us on Tuesday, April 4th, W/O Shaw put the squadron through several different drill sequences which were thoroughly appreciated by one and all.

HUGH ANDERSON, 81 RECALLS SPORT CAREER At 81 years of age, Mr. Hugh Anderson of Stouffville, is an avid sports enthusiast. Presently confined to the Brierbush Hospital he can vividly recall a colourful career of hockey and lacrosse that took his team to many points throughout the province. He was a member of a 7-man hockey team from Port Perry during the seasons of 1903 and 1904. His brother Wm. was the club secretary. In 1903, the club captured the championship and Hugh Anderson fired the game winning goal. He also played lacrosse with Beaverton. Mr. Anderson would practice hockey on the lake. “If you missed a pass, the puck could travel seven miles,” he smilingly remarked. The 7-man team would play thirty minute periods without relief. The team comprised six men and a rover. The player’s pads were homemade and it was not uncommon for boys legs to be covered with big bruises after the game. “A goaltenders pads today fill half the net,” he observed. Mr. Anderson is an enthusiastic follower of the NHL games. When interviewed by the Tribune prior to the conclusion of the Stanley Cup playoffs, he suggested that Chicago’s younger club would win out over Detroit. He is an ardent supporter of Red Wings Gordie Howe.
TOM BENSON SCORED 39 GOALS Tom Benson of Claremont, enjoyed a fine season in the Bantam House League during the past winter. He scored a total of 39 goals and picked up 17 assists for 56 points. His goal production was far ahead of all other players in the group. He was followed by Brian Madill and David James.
WALLACE PUGH GETS MOST POINTS IN PEEWEE LEAGUE Any defenceman that can score 22 goals and collect 9 assists during a Peewee House League season does not need to feel any regrets if his team does not win the group title. That was the record chalked up by Wallace Pugh during the past winter. His total of 31 points was seven more than his nearest rival Gary Eugden.

UXBRIDGE TAKES STRANGLEHOLD ON JUNIOR TITLE Mike Gray, a fleet-footed Uxbridge leftwinger, will never win any medals for his prowess as a back- checker but park the puck on his stick at centre ice and he’s goal-bound with all the drive of a junior “Rocket” Richard. He proved this one week ago when he sank the overtime winner. He turned the trick again on Tuesday night with fifteen seconds left in regulation time. Uxbridge took a strangle hold grip on the Junior ‘D’ group title with a thrill- packed 5-4 victory. Stouffville will be fighting to stave off elimination when the two teams hook up in the fifth game on Uxbridge ice, Friday night. A Clipper win would extend the series to a sixth contest on home grounds next Tuesday. Allan Boyd, Jack Raymond, Grant Foreman.

Newmarket 2 0 4
Stouffville 1 1 4
Sutton 1 1 4
Uxbridge 0 2 4
After being awarded the game at Newmarket against Stouffville on June 1st, which was not finished on account of darkness, Newmarket advised Mr. F.L. Button that they were not disposed to take the game on those conditions, and offered to play it again at the end of the series if it affected the league standing, Newmarket’s good sportsmanship didn’t last long however, for when the papers were forwarded to the Association there to sign, they refused to do so. Since Newmarket made the offer to Stouffville their team played Uxbridge and met with a victory. The changed the minds of the canal boys so badly that they expect to clean up the league, so they are now content with winning on paper. So be it.
By trimming Sutton 6 to 3 on Friday afternoon on the local field, Stouffville is away to a nice start in the ball league. Sutton failed to show the same brand of ball they played at home against Uxbridge when they won by 1 to 0. Their star pitcher Learoyd was hit heavily in the first half of the first inning allowing Stouffville to tally five runs while Sutton was shut out.
In the fist of the second innings, Sutton notched their first tally, getting in one run. In the second half Learoyd and his team steadied down considerably, and Stouffville failed to get a man past first.
In the third Learoyd got to third base, but the next three up didn’t reach first. Boadway tallied for Stouffville in the last half with Reesor caught out on second. Sheppard made home in the first of the fourth for Sutton, bringing their score up to two. Bruels was left on third. Stouffville went out one, two, three. The game was uneventful from this stage to the fist of the eighth when Stouffville nearly blew up, Sutton filled the bases, and none out. Bruels stepped up to bat and made a sacrifice hit, bringing Trelor, still two on bases and one down. Excitement was high but the locals didn’t lose their heads. Galbraith worked hard from the block. Hill stepped up to bat, and sacrificed, making two out, then Taylor who got around to third was caught making home, thus the only serious inning ended, with only one run, and Sutton lost their only chance to snatch a victory. Galbraith had three strike outs while Learoyd had seven. Red Forsyth played a star game on third. Just before the game was started Burkholder who plays first base had his thumb badly split by a ball, and was put out of the game. Bill Sanders, one of the old guards, filled in his old position, which is not easily done without practice.
The line ups:–
Stouffville — Galbraith, Reesor, Sanders, Boadway, Forsyth, Glendenning, Stirry, Dales, Todd
Sutton — Learoyd, Prosser, Taylor, Trelor, Shepherd, Cook, Bruels, Hill, Chapelle

THE OPENING GAME
The opening game at the York-Simcoe Baseball League was played here on Wednesday afternoon last, between Newmarket and Stouffville and resulted in a win for the home team by a score of 1 to 0. The game was a pitchers battle between Bruce Lehman for the winners and McHale for the Newmarket team, Each pitcher struck out eight men; McHale yielded only 3 hits and Bruce only 2, both of which were made by Hugo, the heavy hitter of the visiting team. The Stouffville team played errorless ball behind Lehman, while the visitors made a couple of errors, one of which paved the way for the only run of the game. It was the finest game of ball played here in a long time and the Stouffville team and especially their pitcher deserve great credit for the game put up in view of the fact that they had very little practice this season and had never been together on the field at one time. There was a fairly good bunch of fans present. The team deserves the support of the town and we trust at the next game the field will be too small to hold the crowd.
Stouffville line-up;
Lou Lehman c., H. Forsyth lf., Dr. N Dales 1st.b., Earl Glendenning s.s., P.W. Britwell 2nd b., Murray Glendenning 3rd b., Bruce Lehman p., P Glendenning c.f., H. Cook r.f.

SEMI-FINAL BASEBALL
Stouffville Defeats Sutton in Sparkly Game
In the fastest game of baseball played in Aurora for many a day Stouffville nine, winners of the York-Simcoe League, sent down to defeat the snappy Sutton nine, champions of the Tri-County League to their first defeat this season, by a score of 3 to 2. The game was the first in the O.B.A semi-finals and was a sudden death game. As a result of the win Stouffville were ordered into a second round on Saturday with St. Clair’s of Toronto.
The first innings on Wednesday was a shut out for both sides, but Sutton notched run in the second, and their few fans were wild with excitement. Stouffville counted in the third. The fourth, fifth and sixth innings brought no further score for either team, although Stouffville had the bases packed, but failed to get the necessary hit to bring someone over home plate. Sutton was again shut out in the seventh, but Stouffville took the lead by racing two men around the circle. Norm Dales started the fireworks, by smashing the old apple on the nose for a two-bagger. Bruce Lehman singled safely to first, and a wild throw over first base allowed two runs in. The heavy fan support for Stouffville made a din of noise that would but the midway speelers in the dumb class. In the first eight, Sutton filled all the bags and were counting a win for themselves, when Lehman in the pitcher’s block allowed no hits, and fanned two men in succession, thus putting his team out of a dangerous corner. This ended the base running and the game ended 3 to 2 with an inning to spare for Stouffville.
Bruce Lehman on the mound for the locals struck out fifteen men and played a famous game, showing good ability when hard pressed in tight positions. Learoyd for Sutton struck out eight men, but was replaced n the block in the seventh.
Sutton made four errors, and the play all through was snappy and free of disputes.
The line-up hasn’t a weak link, and every man was right on his toes in his own position. One of the thrills of the game was provided by “Red” Forsyth who pulled off the nicest “bunt” in many a day, at an opportune moment.
Here is the line-up of last Wednesday: Bruce Lehman p., Lou Lehman, c., N. Dales 1b., E Britnel 2b., Earl Cook 3b., Earl Glendenning s.s., H. Cook fr., Pete Glendenning cf., H. Forsyth lf., W.J. Mather, Manager, H. Perry scorer.
St Clair Win Close Game
Although the played a strenuous game of ball on Wednesday, the O.B.A. ordered the Stouffville boys in play again on Saturday., three days later in a sudden death meet with the St Clair’s of Toronto, city champions, in which game we were defeated by 3 to 1, and thereby forfeit our right to further effort to win the O.B.A. championship for the season. The Stouffville infield was a little off-colour and several costly errors were made, and this together with some poor base running cost the boys the game. With two nothing for the St. Clairs in the fourth, Stouffville lost a golden opportunity to even the score at least, when two men were caught between bases. Stouffville had their last innings and made a valiant effort to rally three runs for up to this time they had been shut out. The rally looked to be all but successful, one man crossed the pan and the crowd went wild. Two more on bases at second and third, and only one out, but the necessary hit to bring them in was not forthcoming, and the game ended. Lehman, who pitched on Wednesday, was replaced by Earl Cook who duplicated the fine performance of Lehman. He has 14 strike-outs against the opponent’s eight and had he been given the same field support as was put up on Wednesday the St. Clairs would never have made a run. The St. Clairs have hand-picked team of first class ball players whose Saturday pitcher is a semi-professional man and captain of the team. The Toronto boys were superior base runners, in fact they could not be surpassed. By dropping this game Stouffville concluded a most successful baseball season. The team have travelled a greater distance than was expected at the onset with a team of purely local boys, and they are to be congratulated for the prowess shown.

LARGE NEW RINK AT MEMORIAL PARK
A long felt want in Stouffville is a large and commodious skating and hockey rink, and now comes the good news that Messrs. Baker Bros. will fill up the gap in our desires by the erection of a building 200 Ft. long by 90 feet wide. This will give a superior ice space to that of the Markham or Uxbridge rinks for hockey purposes, which will be a boon to the hockey boys in the winters to come.
The site chosen for the new arena is on the park grounds at the south end of the field. This will be central and very convenient for people in any part of town. The Parks Commission are granting Baker Bros. the free use of the grounds, in lieu of which the building will be available in the summer season as a main building for fair purposes or public demonstrations. This arrangement will be of great value to the Parks Commission, who have control of the grounds, as the need of some sort of commodious building is badly felt. Only last fair day the exhibits had to be displayed up town, while the fair was held in the park.
Work on the new structure is now underway, and the material from the old skating rink will be worked into the new building which is to have a metal roof. Mr Fred Betz is head carpenter, and will have a number of men to rush the job to a finish this fall. The interior will comprise large waiting rooms and a lunch counter. Provision is being made to accommodate more people than the rinks in the surrounding towns are provided with. It will now be possible for Stouffville to develop an O.H.A. hockey line-up for which there is plenty of good material waiting to be developed.
Baker Bros. are to be commended for their enterprise, and we hope the undertaking will be a big success in every way.
Tenders will be received for Caretaker of the Curling Rink for the coming season. Tenders to be sent to the Club Secretary by Friday, Dec. 3rd. H.W. Sanders, Secretary.

BIG CROWDS HERE ON DOMINION DAY
The Dominion Day celebration, so well founded in Stouffville last year, again proved to be a big success on July 2nd. The weather contributed all that was possible to an ideal holiday and some 2000 people came and enjoyed themselves on the park grounds morning and afternoon, either participating in games or as onlookers.
The prizes in sports were chiefly won by the locals. In softball Stouffville, Claremont and Mt Albert entered the field and finished in this fashion. A large crowd was attracted by the horseshoe pitching contest between eight Stouffville men and eight old boys as follows: Locals — Rob’t. Ratcliff, D. Stouffer, Harvey Glendenning, Percy Tarr, W. Harper, Chris. Armstrong, Fred Glendenning. Old boys — Cliff. Stewart, Phillip and Fred. Macklem, Chris Stouffer, Marvyn and Herb. James and Elmer Young. The Toronto old boys had forgotten a little that they learned about the country in their more youthful days and couldn’t handle the shoes well enough to win.
The bicycle race over a three mile course in Ringwood and return was won by Alex. Evans who works for H. Miller on the 7th of Markham and James Lemaghan who is employed by George Hoover of the same concession line, came in second. There were 13 entries. Winner’s time was 13 minutes.
Gilbert Richardson and Mr. F.L. Button had put up a splendid silver cup for the bowling competition to be played annually, and this was captured by the locals for the first year.
Oshawa and Stouffville
At four o’clock Stouffville and Oshawa played a nine inning game of baseball which held the attention of a large crowd until after 6 o’clock. The intense heat told on both pitchers and they were slow to action on this account. Stouffville won out by a 5 to 12 score. The game was tight right up to the end of the seventh, when Oshawa weakened.

LEAGUE WINNERS?
Stouffville Baseball Nine now looks fair to win the local league championship, having captured two straight wins for New Toronto. Their last victory on Wednesday last week took place on the local diamond, when they tucked away a 4 to 8 victory in a splendid game of ball. Good hitting by the locals and good pitching on the par of Earl Cook proved too much for the Queen City lads, who did their greatest to stem defeat. Both teams were shut out in the first round, but Toronto scored two in the second. Stouffville came back at the end of the third with three, giving them a lead of one. Max Reesor started the real fireworks for the three runs by slugging out a three-bagger, bringing in two runs and finally getting in himself. Max got a two-bagger in the second inning also, but was left stranded on the base. Murray Glendenning picked off a two-bagger in the fifth, when the locals brought in three more runs. Stouffville made their final two in the seventh, and Toronto got one in the sixth, and one in the ninth. The new diamond is greatly appreciated and enables fast ball to be played. The brand of ball on Wednesday warranted a bigger crowd of spectators.

BALL TEAM CLOSE TO CHAMPIONSHIP
Since our last issue, the baseball nine have been making history, and incidentally advertising their old town in the sporting world by winning the first two games in the semi-finals of the O.B.A.A. By defeating the Wayomacks of Toronto they stand champions of the two Toronto district, and by winning from Penetang last Saturday in the northern town, they have almost put to route the champions of Simcoe County. Penetang proved an easy prey, and Stouffville overpowered them to the tune of 10 to nothing.
The game was ragged in spots, the feature being the good work of the Stouffville battery. Earl Cook on the mound had the Penetang lads at his mercy after the first three innings. Stouffville scored five runs in the first of the second, mostly through errors, and this seemed to demoralize their opponents, who were scheduled to play the return game at Stouffville this Wednesday afternoon. Stouffville found it comparatively easy to hit Beauchamp the speedy pitcher of Penetang who proved too much for Midland and Orillia in the league series, while Cook, as we said, couldn’t be touched when he once worked into pitching condition.
If Stouffville wins the return game here on Wednesday, they may be called upon to meet Peterborough, who are counting strong for winning the pennant this year.
Stouffville line-up as they batted Earl Glendenning, Reg. Button, Max Reesor, H. Cook, C.. Meredith, M. Glendenning, McFadden, Earl Cook.
Umpires — Nicholson and Benson of Toronto.

LOCALS DROP OUT OF CONTEST
Three hits in a row by Peterborough, one a two-bagger, good for two runs with nobody out in the seventh, put the Stouffville baseball team out of the O.B.A.A. Intermediate championship which was almost in their grasp. They had Peterborough and Niagara Falls to beat, but now they stand third best and are through for the season. Peterborough came here Saturday for the return game and both teams were held scoreless until the seventh when the visitors got a striking streak as indicated above. They tallied three runs in this fateful seventh, while the Stouffville nine were shut out entirely.
The winning visitors never got a man on base until the fourth innings, and he never got any further before the side was retired. It was not until the sixth that they sent a man that far again. Earl Cook made them look like beginners at bat until the seventh, when he let up a little as an experienced batsman decided the game.
For a small town to go so far in the league finals is an achievement we are proud of, and the team deserves great praise.
The Peter Daily Examiner remarks that “There great victory at Stouffville on Saturday against on of best pitchers in the league sends them to the finals.”
Manager Mather had the playing field in tip top condition for the game. It is a dirt infield, but when rolled as it was on Saturday has few equals. The club provided capable umpires, and Joe Walsh of the O.B.A.A. came down from Toronto for the game.

NEW HOCKEY RULES
Although the first rule appearing below was defeated at the O.H..A. convention it is only a matter of time until it is adopted. Here are the changes and the proposed one:
Wing to the increased expense which would be the result, the amendment providing three substitute players in place of two was defeated. The small centres, with teams in the O.H.A. were decidedly apposed to the preposed change which was made by the C.A.H.A at Ottawa last March. O.H.A. teams will continue to carry two substitutes in addition to an extra goaltender in league games, but the champion teams when they pass into the C.A.H.A. playdowns may use three, who, in the future will be known as alternative players.
While the referees in the past have been instructed to face the puck at the sixty-foot line after an offside has been made by the defending team from within the defensive area, it has never been incorporated in the playing rules. It will be in the future.
A penalized player must return to the ice after serving his penalty before a substitute is made for him.
A player must not delay the game by ragging the puck, but shooting the rubber from one end to the other will not be considered as offending the rules. MARKHAM WINS FIRST GAME

STOUFFVILLE WINS FROM PORT PERRY
The Locals First Win of the Season. Port Perry was scheduled to play an Intermediate hockey league game in Stouffville last Friday night, but owing to the stormy weather drifting in the roads it was 10.15 before the game was started. The few who turned out for the occasion, stayed for the most part at the rink until the arrival of the belated players, and were rewarded with a few thrills. The game was quite spirited, both teams boring in well from the start. Stouffville had the edge on the Scugog boys for the first two periods when they stored away four goals to the visitors none and won the final count by 3 to 5.
The first period ended 2-0 for Stouffville which scarcely indicated the balance of play that seemed to be around the Stouffville net for the most part. Roy Couperthwaite the “hornet” of the local team did some nice work, and tallied the first goal with Murray Glendenning counting the second one. Couperthwaite scored again in the second period shortly after Crosby notched a counter. Port rallied in the final session, and fairly bombarded the home nets. They gave Jake Hoover the hottest time of his life, but he managed to stop all but three.
Walters and Moore of Uxbridge are playing this season for Port Perry, and it is their players who held up the game owing to their being stuck with their car near Goodwood. Hockey fans should make it a point to patronize these games. It is a big undertaking to enter a team and meet the heavy expenses of the season, hence they deserve every encouragement.

BOWLERS MAKE READY FOR PLAY.
At the annual meeting of the Stouffville Lawn Bowling Club held Tuesday evening last week it was decided to get after delinquent members for dues unpaid by passing bank drafts on all who stand in such arrears. This year membership cards will be issued at $5 and $3 for non-resident embers. All who wish to plat must secure one before they indulge in the sport.
The ladies came in for a special favour, by being invited to join at a fee of $1.00 each which will entitle them to enter the Monday night tournaments.
The south-east corner of the green is to be levelled and ditches placed along the east and west border of the green.
The officers were re-elected as follows: — Pres. Jas. Ratcliff, Vice-Pres., M.E. Storey, Sec’y-Treas., Dr. Neil Smith; Grounds committee, Bert Smith, A.C. Burkholder, and F.L. Button. Membership — E.A. Gray, B.J. Doten
The president, vice-president and J. Blake Sanders were named as the Games Committee, while the same two officers and W.R. Sanders are delegates to Centre York Bowling League meeting.
This year the well dressed bowlers should wear brown leather shoes, cream flannel trousers, plain or wide striped, a blue coat and a white felt hat. Such was the decision of the Dominion Lawn Bowling Association at its annual meeting in Toronto. The D.L.B.A. is sending a recommendation to the associations which are affiliated with it that this matter be drawn to the attention of the clubs and that an effort be made to conform to this dress code particularly at tournaments.
Shirt-sleeves and suspenders will be taboo and sweaters. Blue trousers and black shoes may be frowned upon, while a skip who wears a pair of white shoes is liable to invite severe criticism. Incidentally long agitation for a standard bow; has been realized and the association will adhere to the Scottish Bowling Association’s regulations. In future no bowl shall exceed 16 1/2 inches in circumference nor 3 1/2 pounds in weight, nor shall it have less bias than a standard bowl adopted by the association.

WOULD ORGANIZE LACROSSE TEAM
The week Mr. Fred Waghorn was in town endeavouring to interest local sportsmen in reorganizing a lacrosse team here. Mr. Waghorn, who is one of the former Ontario stars, is visiting Markham, Stouffville, Uxbridge, Cannington, and Beaverton, in an effort to revive an old game. When here he called on Mr. Ed. Pennock, a former lacrosse pal, and the two once again lived in “the good old days” when they visualized a few of their spectacular performances.
Mr. Waghorn proposes to start a younger generation with a lacrosse stick, in an effort to develop some of the fine teams for which these towns were famous 25 years ago. NO DEARTH OF GOOD BALL PLAYERS
But Formation of a League is Difficult
Although Stouffville has material for a snappy baseball team again this season, the boys are experiencing difficulty securing a league within gunshot, that they may compete in.
At the baseball meeting held a few nights ago it was announced that a good line-up of players is obtainable here. The chief worry was the fact that the withdrawal of Earl Cook who will twirl this season with Goodyear Tire, Toronto, we would be too seriously handicapped for a pitcher.
Now we have it on good authority that Harold Cook a brother to our champion pitcher Earl, is developing as much ability and will carry the honours just as well this season as Earl did last. Bruce Lehman is shaping himself for this position and together these boys are most promising. Meredith of Markham who played last season for Stouffville is no weakling in the block either.
Manager Mather of last year’s team which had their fingers on the top rung of the O.B.A. ladder says we have excellent material all through for a fast line-up this season, if only a league can be formed within driving distance. So far our nearest neighbours are Port Perry, Peterborough and Oshawa, but it is learned that this league is closed and settled on. There is however, a possibility of a league being formed with New Toronto, Willowdale and possibly another team is which Stouffville may be able to hook up. Matters are thus awaiting development in this connection.

The Stouffville Tennis Club held their first organization meeting of the season on Tuesday evening, May 28, W.D. Stonehouse was elected president for the year and it was decided to ask Mrs. T. Birkett to continue in her capacity as secretary-treasurer. The fees for the present season will be the same as before $1.50, and a membership card will be issued. In the absence of Mrs. Birkett, Miss Luella Holden will receive the subscriptions of those desiring to become members or to renew their membership. Lack of accommodation was felt to be the only bar to the clubs expansion, and it was decided to interview the Parks Commission to discuss the possibility of court being doubled. The courts which are in use at present are not adequate to accommodate all those who desire to play.
Membership fees of the Stouffville Tennis Club are payable either to Ed. McPhaden at the Canadian Bank of Commerce or to Win. Stonehouse at the Bank of Nova Scotia.

The Israelites took Bill Mather’s crew into camp here on Tuesday evening by defeating them in baseball to the tune of 4-8. The visitors came from Toronto and are an all Jewish team, The Elizabeths of Toronto. Although they bear a female name there is no wearer of skirts on the line-up all being young men and altogether a snappy baseball nine. H. Cook started on the mound for the locals, but was changed in the later stages for Lunau. Max Reesor performed well behind the bat, and the fans enjoyed a lively game of ball. Owing to the short notice and the inopportune hour at which the game was called (5 p.m.) the crowd was not very large, and the locals will not make any money to carry them into the semi-finals next week on O.B.A baseball. When the first of these games are announced it is hoped that they will be better patronized.

STOUFFVILLE WINS FROM PETERBOROUGH
First of Home and Home Games in 4th Round of Semi-Finals
The baseball nine took the trim out of the sails of the speedy Cognawagas of Peterborough in the fourth round of the O.B.A.A. semi-finals in the local park lot on Saturday afternoon to the tune of 7-2. The visitors came down confident of victory, but before the first innings was over they got a different viewpoint. Peterborough went to bat first, and were shut out. Stouffville picked up the club and batted the sphere all over the lot and pitcher out of box for he was retired in the second innings. Between good hitting and wild pitching five runs were gathered in the first innings, Eleven batters were up thus every man had a trial in the first fixture. In addition to the five runs three men were left on bases and three were given bases on balls during the effort. The Cognawagas never rounded the diamond until the eighth innings, when they counted one, and repeated the performance in the ninth. After the locals brilliant first innings at bat, they came back with another pair of runs in the second, and this ended the race track business for them, although they had 11 men left on bases in the nine innings, while Peterborough had five stranded in this manner. In the fifth, Stouffville had the bases loaded, but failed to get the necessary hit to bring in a run. Mather’s crew made two double plays, in the first and fifth innings, which brought forth great applause from the fans.
The return game was called for yesterday at Peterborough, and in the event of our boys dropping this game the tie will be played off on neutral grounds. Watch for it.
The two Lehman boys, Bruce in the box and Lou behind the bat preformed in grand style. Bruce pitched a star game, and kept the game well in hand throughout the nine innings.
The attendance was not nearly large enough for a fourth round game in the provincial play-offs. The boys deserve better support, and will undoubtedly get it should they reach the fifth round. The complete line-up for Stouffville is as follow:
Bruce Lehman, p., Lou Lehman c, Harold Cook 1b, Wes Boadway, s.s., Murray Glendenning 2b, Lunae 3b, Reg. Button, Earl Glendenning and Eddie McPhaden fielders.

HOCKEY NOTES
Toronto “All Stars” won the Junior series last Wednesday night. They are a fine lot of boys, and the big crowd approved of them winning the gold watches, The watches were presented by Dr. Ball.
Manager Baker of the Stouffville Arena is putting up a special prize of eight watches in order to re-open the Junior Hockey series. It is felt that the Junior winners (The All Stars) were altogether too superior for the junior series, and Mr. Baker is generously putting up another prize for the four teams that were runners-up. The games will be played thus: —
Thursday, March 6th – Claremont vs Altona; Falcons vs Locust Hill
Friday, March 7th Final between winners of Thursday’s game.
The big crowd at the tournament on Tuesday night were incensed over the fate of a player on the Massey-Harris team when he received a broken nose and bad facial cuts from the stick of Max. Reesor. Whether it was accidental, or not may be a controversial question, but the hockey fans had their own idea which wasn’t favourable to Max. Markham won the game, but was unpopular at the finish because of this fracus the last ten minute of play. Fans like fair play and Manager Baker was considering two referees for the final match this Wednesday night between Markham and Aurora. The manager of the Markham team was asked to replace Max Reesor with some other player.

The big annual hockey tournament held in the Stouffville Arena will open Thursday evening, one day later than announced on the large posters. This postponement was made because of the O.H.A. game at Markham on Wednesday evening between Markham and Oshawa.
This years tournament promises to be the best ever staged here, judging by the manner in which teams are signing up. For instance, the fast Markham Intermediates have entered for the senior group, but there are others just as promising for them to run up against.
The junior series appears to be filling well. This year Goodwood has entered a team, and the Sand Hill boys are said to have a real interesting line up.
It is impossible at this time to announce the playing teams in the opening games, but it should be noted that the tournament will continue on Friday evening, and resume on Monday, February 16th playing each evening until the finals. A double-header each evening for the one admission.
Gold watches will be presented to the winners of each group.

The senior group will play their final game on Monday night, March 2nd. ice permitting. This promises to be a red-hot battle, and as a final thriller for the season, we estimate that few fans will miss the game. Both teams are fast, play brilliant combinations and are hard to choose between.

THEIR FIRST FALL
The Stouffville nine, leaders of the York-Ontario Baseball League, took their first fall on Friday afternoon last, and strange to say, it happened on the local diamond. Newmarket came out on top with a score of 12 to 1. The game was virtually packed away by the visitors in the first innings when they stacked up three runs. Lehman on the mound had a sore arm and as forced to retire at the end o the innings, but the damage was done, as the lead taken by the Canal Town lads seemed to “undo” the locals and they failed to show their usual snappiness. Only in the second did they score at all getting in one, and thus saving a whitewash. Harold Cook followed Lehman in the pitching stand, but his control was not good. In the fifth the visitors scored five runs, and from there on the game was ragged. Although this was the sixth game in the league that the locals had played, this is the only defeat this season.
There was a fair attendance of fans at this game, but those that have followed the league are free to admit that while this game didn’t prove entertaining, those that came before were hair-raisers. The Stouffville line-up was:
Battery, Cook and Lehman; 1st base, J. Barfet; 2nd base, E. Glendenning; 3rd base, F. Glendenning; Short Stop, D. Hodgins; field, Dr. N. Smith. Reg. Button, Harry Stover.

EVERYONE PLEASED WITH CELEBRATION
New Ford Tudor goes to Orangeville Man. Ideal weather conditions, coupled with liberal advertising of the attractive program and the lure of winning a new Ford Tudor car for 25 cents or 50 cents, brought to the town Monday (Civic Holiday) one of the largest celebration crowds ever assembled here, and certainly one of the most orderly.
One of the chief attractions was the baseball match between Stouffville and the Elizabeths of Toronto, and the football match between Goodwood and Green River in which the river boys downed their opponents by a 2 to 1 score. Excitement ran high throughout the game. Goodwood being leaders in Ontario League were looked to be the favourites but failed to come through on top.
Uxbridge girls beat Stouffville boys in softball, and incidentally furnished some big amusement. Races, javelin throwing, nail driving contest, horseshoe pitching and other sports took their share of the big crowd that filled Memorial Park all afternoon. Over on the bowling green a mixed tournament was run off, the four prizes going to outside teams.
About 11 o’clock little Betty Jean Freel drew the winning ticket from the tub, and Mr. Rob’t. Miller announced the lucky number as 9509. The holder of this ticket and the man to receive the car was Mr. Liddy of Orangeville, who was later notified by telephone of his good fortune. Mr. Liddy purchased his ticket in Brampton. Mr. Norman MacLean being the salesman.
After paying a heavy expense for program and incidental expenses the Orangeman will have a handsome surplus for their efforts. Also the business men are to profit on the evening sale of tickets the proceeds going to the tower fund. Mr. Delbert Holden and his committee are to be congratulated on the effort they put forth on behalf of the celebration.

Sports Day
On Friday afternoon this week Stouffville High School will hold a Field Day in Memorial Park. This is a new venture for the local; school, but a very popular event. All students are requested to enter in at least two competitions in order to obtain the full cooperation of all members.

SIGN UP E. COOK
Lemonville Native Son May Enter Field of Professional Twirlers
Stouffville and district is proud to send out into the world men of great repute, university chancellors and presidents, but now bids for to turn out something in the sporting line of which few communities can boast. Earl Cook of Lemonville, son of Mr. George Cook has been pitching ball this summer for the Toronto St. George’s in a manner as to attract the eye of officials of the Maple Leaf aggregation..and for a time, says the Mail and Empire, it appeared as if Cook would be asked to make the trip south to Atlanta with the Leafs next spring.
But now it seems otherwise. Vincent Barton, Chicago’s hard hitting outfielder for the cubs, has all but closed with Fritz Maisel, Baltimore pilot, to give Cook a chance.
And Cook, conscious of the wonderful opportunity given Barton by the Baltimore club, is likely to accept the Baltimore offer in preference to all others.
The sporting editor of the Mail says Cook has just about everything a good pitcher should have, and with experience should make a go of it in the professional ranks. Earl Cook started his baseball career on the local line-up, and from the first day he donned the players uniform was marked as boy with outstanding possibilities in the pitcher’s block.

The game was fast from start to finish and it was just a toss up as to who would win with Claremont getting the breaks. The championship will be decided by the two best games out of three and Locust Hill must come across the next game in order to make a third game necessary. The next game will be played tonight (Thursday) and anyone wishing to see a good hard game of hockey between two evenly matched clubs will do well to take this in.

COOK STARS ON LEAF LINE-UP
The big baseball magnates have been quick to learn the possibilities of Earl Cook, as a baseball twirler. He went south this winter with the Leaf’s for a tryout,atryout, andnd promptly gained a place in professional ball. At Newark last Saturday he worked his first International League game against Newark, and although the Leaf’s dropped the game 10 to 3, Earl did satisfactory work. It was not his game to begin with. Abbercock for the Leafs’s being on the mound, but when he weakened, Cook stepped in and finished the last three innings. He struck out one and allowed one run in these three innings.
According to press dispatches Earl played a game at Indianapolis, and it is said that Manager Tom Daley, will “farm” him out this season, when the so-called fine pints will be added.
In view of the “farming out” process which all players who are lucky enough to gain a place on an International line-up must go.
It is not possible for local fans to see their home boy from a seat in the stadium this summer, but another summer we will all look forward to such an event, as that of rooting for Cook when he appears on the mound for the Toronto Leaf’s. Such a thing is now quite a probability. BOX LACROSSE AT LOCAL ARENA
As a result of the Rouge River team entering the southern league for Box Lacrosse Stouffville fans will have the opportunity to see this new and thrilling sport played right here in town this summer. The Rouge boys, with almost the same personnel as the Rouge River hockey team, recently organized for Box Lacrosse, will play their home games in the Stouffville Arena. The opening game at Stouffville will be on Friday, May 20 between Rouge A. C. and Rouge Hill.
Box Lacrosse is played much the same as the old time Lacrosse, only indoors. A white ball is used so that the players are able to see it easily. The nets are regulation this season 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 feet. There is the same difficulty to keep the game clean as hockey, but players are penalized for slashing others with their sticks.
On place where Box Lacrosse widely differs from the old field game is in the hour at which the sport is enjoyed. It is an evening setting, games start at 8 o’clock usually.
Goodwood and Altona are prepared to organize for Box Lacrosse but two more teams are required to form a league. Persons interested should get in touch with Clayt Baker arena manager, or with Fred McNair of the Altona Club.
Agincourt and Rouge A. C. will play their home games at Agincourt. Rouge Hill will play home games at Stouffville and Unionville will play in their own rink.

EAST YORK BOWLERS
The reorganization of the East York Bowling League took place at Richmond Hill on Thursday evening of last week. The league is composed of seven teams including Markham, Unionville, Agincourt, Stouffville, Richmond Hill, Aurora, and Newmarket.
It was decided to affiliate with the Provincial Association of Lawn Bowlers. The matter of drawing up the year’s schedule was left to a further meeting to be held in Stouffville.
The officers were elected as follows:
Prest. W.R. Sanders, Stouffville
Vice-Prests. Mr. Cole, Mr. Marshall
Sec’y-Treas W.E. Mordon, Stouffville BOX LACROSSE RULES
Period Will Be of Twenty Minutes Duration with Ten Minute Intermissions
Goal Sizes – Reduced
Line From Crease – Eliminated
Drastic Rules – to Prevent Rough Play
Some important decisions were made by the O.A.L.A executive in connection with box lacrosse. It was decided that the playing periods be three 20 minute periods with a ten minute rest between instead of four 15 minute periods. It was felt that this would be convenient for the spectators.
The size of the goals was changed from 4 feet wide by 5 feet high to 4 1/2 feet wide and 4 1/2 feet high. The line extending across the playing area from the crease was eliminated so that all box lacrosse rules both amateur and professional will be fundamentally the same. The players will not be permitted to pass the ball back to the goalkeeper when he is in the crease. It was felt that such a line would be the result of much whistle blowing and it is the object to speed up the game in every way possible.
No slashing of any kind will be permitted in box lacrosse which includes unnecessary hitting across the arms. Referees will receive strict instructions to stop this undesirable method of checking.
Fed Waghorne was appointed to convene the Jr. teams adjacent to Toronto and district. Jr. clubs who have as yet not entered are asked to enter at once as a meeting will be called in a few days and entries closed.
Frank Doyle of Orillia, a member of the 1932 executive, was appointed as the association’s representative on the Tri-County League. All the teams from the section are members of the association.
All groups must have winners by October 15 as Ontario play-downs will begin after this date.
An attempt is being made to organize a club in Stouffville to play with teams in the immediate district.

High hopes were entertained that the best team produced here for some time was possible this season. Those present voiced their regret at the retirement of W.J.

Latest developments in baseball news is the decision of Aurora to retire from the league. Cause “Inability to get players.” All games with this team are therefore cancelled.
Aurora Swamped By Local Team. In the third game for the local team this season once again they proved their superiority over another contender for the York County Baseball League. With the Lehman brothers working to perfection Stouffville slammed out a 10 – 0 victory over the visitors going through five innings played in grand style with but one error. The game was then because of darkness which may account for the locals not running away with sixteen runs as they did on their last trip into one of the northern towns. This win advances the Stouffville club one more step toward the winning of the championship which would permit Stouffville to enter the Provincial play downs.
Uxbridge plays Sutton today. The next game on Stouffville diamond is set for Monday next week in Sutton
Stouffville 4 Newmarket 0
With the winning of their game against Newmarket on Monday it really looks as if Stouffville will not have such a hard task after all, to hold their first place position in the York-Ontario baseball league. Cook made the first tally for Stouffville in the last half of the first innings, when he crossed the plate on an error by the Newmarket catcher. Three more runs followed in the second, third, and fifth innings with much applause to Bruce Lehman for his superb pitching and to Button for his A! work at bat. Batteries for Monday’s game were or Newmarket, Vale pitching, Turand catching, and for Stouffville, Lehman pitching and Lehman catching.

Pennock Pitches Well for Locals
On Wednesday of last week the Stouffville club romped home with a 6-4 victory over Newmarket in the hardest fought game yet this season, on the local diamond. The first innings found Lehman occupying the mound for the locals, but when his arm failed to respond, he was speedily replaced by Pennock who held the visitors to a tie until he gave up the twirling to Cook in the sixth round of the game.
It seemed as if Stouffville was beginning the contest rather badly giving Newmarket their first tally in the opening innings, but redeemed themselves in the second when they evened the score. Each team scored a run in the fourth innings and so it remained, 2-2 until the sixth innings when Cook began the fireworks by lining one over second allowing Button to cross the plate, bringing the locals one up. Smith the next batter was promptly given a walk while Pennock followed with a lovely double over shortstop bringing Cook safely home. Stouffville was rewarded with two more runs in that innings giving them a lead of four runs. Newmarket attempted to at least break even for a time, were dangerous enough, scoring two runs in the last inning but the locals managed to hold firm leaving the final score 6-4.

Box Lacrosse
On Saturday night last Agincourt and Rouge Hill teams gave a splendid exhibition of speedy, clean lacrosse. Although the final score of 6-1 in favour of Rouge Hill the apposing team did not appear to be outclassed, and interest of the spectators was held to the finish.
At the end of the first period the score was tied 1-1 but in each of the succeeding periods Rouge Hill continued to pile up the score and although at times the Agincourt boys rained shots on the Rouge net, the goal-tender, Alan Hurd, was hard to beat. The Rouge defensemen, Sid Hurd and Vince were always effective. For the Rouge boys Fredway scored three goals while Hawse, Brown and Hurd each netted one. Stibbard got the goal for Agincourt. Fredway is an outstanding goal-getter for the Rouge team having twenty-eight goals too his credit this season.

Since the last issue of this paper Stouffville baseball team have continued their winning streak by defeating Sutton here on Friday evening last in a 4-3 score, and again at Sutton on Monday evening by a 9 to 6 victory. The locals have not lost a game this year in the league fixtures, and only have two more set ups to play, namely home and home games with Uxbridge and Newmarket. Stouffville should easily romp home with the league honours.
At Uxbridge on Tuesday, Uxbridge defeated Newmarket 2 to 1. The game went to eleven innings.
One of the largest crowds thus far to witness a lacrosse match in the arena assembled on Friday evening to see the Rouge River line-up defeat their brother Rouge A.C’s in the first home-and-home games for the East York Championship. Final Score 9 to 7.

Bruce Lehman who has pitched Stouffville baseball team to victory in nine straight wins, stared on Friday evening again when he pitched a no-hit, no run game against Newmarket in the York Ontario League. Stouffville reached Vail the Newmarket pitcher for two runs on five hits. Vail was afforded poor support, the Canal Town lads committing no less than six errors.

For their tenth game of the season the local nine journeyed to Uxbridge on Monday where thy again captured the bacon in the form of a 9-4 victory over the northern team. The Uxbridge squad were rather taken aback in the very first innings when the locals reached Clark for three hits which netted them three runs. Six more runs were awarded to Stouffville in the second and fifth innings of the game while Uxbridge made several desperate attempts which netted them four runs leaving the final score 9-4. In this game special mention must go to Reg. Button who performed superbly at the plate knocking out two doubles and a single in short order, while Lou Lehman did equally well in his turn.

Semi-Final Baseball on Afternoon Program
At this distance the Civic Holiday Celebrations in Stouffville on Monday, August 1st, bids fair to draw a bumper crowd, because a big crows will always go where a real “jam” up program is put on. Drs. Sangster and Ball and Delbert Holden, and members of the Parks Commission are responsible for the importation of a clown group of comic fun makers for the evening performance on Main Street. They will entertain those who do not dance, and thy travel with the Millionaire Orchestra which is coming from Detroit. This is a five -piece group of coloured players with professional caller-off.
The afternoon program contains a feature baseball match which the Baseball Club are fortunate in securing for this date. It is a semi-final baseball match in the Ontario-York League with Uxbridge against Stouffville, winners of the league to date. Goodwood and Stouffville lacrosse teams will stage an exhibition game and the old boys who gather will play baseball also. There will be bowling on the green.
Large colourful posters were broadcast over the county last week telling about Stouffville’s big day, but as the Queen of Sheba said when she saw Solomon with his 500 wives that the half about him ha never been told, so when those who gaze on the printer’s ink and pulp wood will be able to say, the half was never in print. However, enough is told to ensure a big crowd.
All tickets for the evening performance are numbered, and if you are lucky you will be called to the platform and presented with a 1932 model Ford car of the Tudor type.
Now wouldn’t that be fine. Come along, no one has a better chance to win than you have. BOX LACROSSE

Once again Stouffville has proven her ability to put on a celebration day and carry it out to the satisfaction of the thongs that are attracted here year to year. On Monday (Civic Holiday) one of the largest crowds we ever saw assembled in town turned out for the big street dance in the evening. In addition to the dance the crowd was lured by the prospects of someone getting a 1932 Ford coach for nothing, or for having drawn the lucky ticket for the dance.
At 1:30 o’clock Reeve Morden held his little granddaughter (Churley) up to the big churn that turned over and over the tickets, and amidst the great hush which fell over the lost throng, the child pulled out just one ticket, and immediately the name of W.R. Manning, Orangeville, was announced as the lucky winner, with ticket number 11405. Strange, but this is the second car given away in Stouffville to go to an Orangeville citizen. Last year a Mt. Liddy of Orangeville won the car with ticket 9509.
Manning could not be located until Tuesday afternoon, when he lost no time in coming here from Orangeville to pick up his prize. He proved to be a lad of just 19 years, a junior clerk in the Bank of Toronto. He never owned a car before and told the Tribune that his limited wage would scarcely permit him keeping one up. He hoped to sell his prize and put away a few hundred dollars from the transaction. The lucky boy purchased only one ticket from Mr. Truman Holden. manning presented both Mr. Holden and the little girl with five dollars each.
While naturally the night crowd was the largest in town, the attendance at the afternoon program of sports was beyond the hopes of the baseball club who had this end of the program in their charge. About 500 people paid admission to the baseball grounds, while a hundred others were enjoying the sport of the bowling green, where a mixed tournament was being held. Uxbridge went down to defeat before the Stouffville nine in the play-off for the championship of the district in the York-Ontario league this being the first of home-and -home games. The score was 7-2.. An exhibition lacrosse match between Stouffville and Goodwood was won by the former. Score 3-2. Rinks from Uxbridge, Newmarket and Toronto won the bowling tourney, with Stouffville getting the consolation prize.
Financially the Parks Commission will have a satisfactory cash balance after all expenses are paid. The association have done a big day’s advertising for our town.

THE BALL NINE LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP
Probably the most sensational game in the York-Ontario Baseball League came off at Uxbridge in the dying moments of the game. At the beginning of the ninth the score stood 4-1 in favour of Uxbridge were actually discussing where the play-off would take place. Tim O’Neil, however, wasn’t ready to discuss matters of this sort until the last man was out. He just couldn’t lose faith in a team that had won thirteen straight games and tied one.
Jack Pennock was the first man to bat in this famous ninth innings and started the fireworks with a nice single. Baker flies out to centre field while Bruce Lehman followed with a sizzler between second and third to place two men on and one out. Lou Lehman the local catcher came to the plate next and batted the first ball pitched, clear over the fence for a triple bringing in two runs. Hodgins grounded out to second only to be followed by Button with a double which allowed Lehman to cross the plate safely tying the score. Cook brought in his man for the winning run. Glendenning obtained a single to be followed by Pennock who completed the innings by a pop fly which retired the locals with a score of 5-4.
Clark and Lehman performed superbly for their respective teams each striking out eight men.
Hits Runs Errors
Stouffville 14 5 5
Uxbridge 4 4 1
Winning this game from Uxbridge gives Stouffville a clear title to the York-Ontario championship. Although the locals never lost a game in the league fixtures, by virtue of the arrangements made at the beginning of the season, the first and second teams had to play home and home games, and a third if necessary, the winning nine to be declared the league champions. This explains the two games with Uxbridge, one at Stouffville on Civic Holiday, when the locals won 7 to 2, and the return game at Uxbridge as recorded above. Stouffville will now enter the O.B.A. semi-finals, and will probably meet Barrie a week from Saturday in the Simcoe town.
With the winning of this game the Stouffville Club have established a record that might well go down in history of the section having lost no games and tied one. In the fifteen league games Stouffville scored 108 runs while only 38 were counted against them.

BARRIE HERE SATURDAY
Stouffville baseball fans are once more to be rewarded with seeing their home team line up against an Intermediate opponent. As champions of the York-Ontario Baseball League, Stouffville will play against Barrie the northern league champions on Saturday, August 20. The return game will be played in Barrie on Wednesday, August 24th.
All games at three o’clock.

BARRIE EASILY DEFEATS LOCALS
After notching up one of the most brilliant showings any team could hope to record by winning the York-Ontario baseball league without a single defeat, Stouffville nine completely collapsed when they entered the O.B.A. semi-finals to meet Barrie in the first round. The northern team, winners of the Simcoe league, took the two straight games by a score of 16-2 and 10-0.
In the first game at Stouffville Barrie easily connected with Bruce Lehman’s cork screw curves which was not working too good that day, and from the first ball pitched in the opening stanza when a Barrie batter connected fora 3-bagger the Stouffville line-up looked weak. Barrie is an older and more experienced aggregation.
In the second game played at Barrie Wednesday last week, Lehman retrieved himself and pitched air-tight ball for five innings in a manner that made Barrie fans take notice. He fanned their old reliable hitters, but still they were able to score. Every ball that reached in or out field as fumbled in some manner, and costly errors meant runs for Barrie. Dr. Neil Smith started a couple of hitting streaks for our lads and vainly attempted to start a couple of rallies by his own good hitting. In the sixth, Cook replaced Lehman in the pitchers block but this brought no better luck. The boys had buried their rabbit’s foot at the last game in Uxbridge, and Barrie easily finished the round with the long score mentioned above.
Stouffville nine are to be congratulated on winning their district with such an astonishing record. Because of this record Barrie faced them with some fear, but evidently concluded that our brand of baseball is below their standard. Barrie has a fair team, but we do not look for them to go far in the semi-finals. They drew a bye in the second round so will not play against Southampton as they expected.

PRESENTS SILVER CUP
A handsome silver cup has been presented to the Stouffville Lawn Bowling Club by Mr. W.M. Still, president to the organization. The cup will be competed for at the annual tournament to be held here on Wednesday of next week, September 14, and both local and outside rinks are eligible to enter the competition.
The fine piece of silverware will become the permanent property of the club winning it the most number of times in the next ten years. It will be up for competition at each fall tournament of the Stouffville club.
The manger of the local branch of the Canadian Bank of Commerce is to be congratulated on his gift, which has been received enthusiastically by the club members.

MODERN TALKIES FOR STOUFFVILLE NOW POSSIBLE
Stouffville is likely to have a modern talkie picture theatre in the near future. Plans approved by the Department, have been decided on for some time, but financing of the proposition has caused some delay. Citizens of the village, chiefly business and professional men, have contributed almost five hundred dollars to date in order to complete the financing. So keen were these local bodies for the theatre, that with the exception of three refusals, eery one approached pledged from $10 to $25. Mr. and Mrs. Sid Schmidt, who are venturing a considerable sum of money in the enterprise are greatly encouraged, as they intimated some weeks ago, were ready to proceed with the undertaking, providing the people backed them for at least $500.
It is the intention of the Schmidts to purchase the old Auditorium Theatre, and build the picture house on the ground floor, building a cement floor where the pool room and bowling allies now operate.
Every attention will be given to sound effect, and the sweeping high ceiling, will add materially to this.
Retiring rooms for ladies and men, with spacious entrance or rotunda will be provided.
It is estimated that at least a month will be required for the contractor to make the necessary changes, hence even if the canvassing for funds is completed this week and the deal rushed through for the building now under option, it would probably be the middle of January or later before the opening could be announced.
There is a keen desire on the part of business men to see a real movie in operation, because such an attraction would draw good night crowds to town, while other citizens claim that such entertainment in our midst, obviated the necessity of our young people driving to other centres so much as they do now, to attend picture shows.

MANY CHANGES TO HOCKEY RULES
Forward Pass adopted from Pro Code – More Body Checking Allowed
With the forward pass being adopted in amateur hockey this year, the teams lucky enough to have the services of a coach versed in this style should certainly have a big advantage over other teams who just break away from the old three abreast combination plays.
The new rules insist that the puck carrier or the puck be the first over the opponents 60 feet line and after that forward passing can go on the same as in centre ice and defending zones.
Last years kicking the puck was allowed in the defence and centre ice areas and now the forward pass has been adopted from the pro rules the game has been further speeded up although so far in games played it hasn’t done away with as much bell-ringing as was anticipated.
Since many are not clear on the forward pass and other important changes in the hockey rules this year we present the revised code.
The puck may be passed forward by any player to a player of the same side in his own defending zone and in the central or neutral zone but may not be passed forward from a player in one zone to a player of the same side in another zone.
Any defending player behind the blue line defending zone A (the defending zone) may skate up and play the puck that has passed out of zone A to zone B (the neutral zone) whether said pass-out was made by a defending or attacking player.
If the puck when passed forward from the defending zone into the neutral zone is taken by a player of the same side who was not in the defending zone when the pass was made, play shall be stopped and the puck “faced” at the blue-line where the puck crossed the line.
In the centre or neutral zone there will be no off-side and the puck carrier or the puck must be the first over the blue-line into the third or attacking zone or he may shoot the puck over the second blue-line.
If the puck carrier shoots before reaching the second blue-line any attacking player in the neutral zone may enter the attacking zone and play the puck. The puck carrier and the potential receiver may be bodied by the defending team when they go into the attacking zone.
Should any attacking player be accidentally “trapped” in the attacking zone he shall not be declared off-side and play shall not be stopped if he skates back to the neutral zone and crosses the blue-line without interfering in any manner with the play. After crossing the blue-line said player may re-enter the attacking zone and get in the play if the puck is still there.
In the third or attacking zone every attacking player must be on-side (no skating a man onside as in the old rules). The puck carrier, however may pass the puck back to another player and shall not be called offside nor shall play be stopped, provided he does not come in bodily contact with an apposing player in the defending zone, or obstruct the views of the goalkeeper or otherwise prevent an apposing player from laying the puck. A pass-out from the corner or back of the net but an attacking player is legal, but he cannot make a second pass-out on the same play.
Kicking the Puck
Kicking the puck is permissible in the defending zone and over the first blue-line and in the neutral zone, but not in the attacking zone or over the second blue-line. If in the attacking zone the puck hits the skate os an attacking player in any manner and is then played by the attacking player play shall be called.
The puck may be stopped with the hand, but not carried or held or knocked on any part of the body, except the kicking as provided in the foregoing clause.
The puck may be played in any manner by any player so long as the stick is used and is not raised above the shoulders.
Ragging the Puck
The puck must at all times be kept in motion. Except to carry the puck behind the goal once the team in possession of the puck shall always advance the puck towards the apposing goal, except they shall be prevented from doing so by players of the apposing team. A face-off ten feet in front of the goal shall be imposed on the team violating this rule. During this face-off no defending player except the goalkeeper will be permitted to stand between the face-off and the goal and the goalkeeper must remain in his position in the net until the “face” has ben completed.
Shooting the puck the length of the ice is not to be considered “ragging”.
Players on both side shall be onside when they and the puck are between the goal-line and the adjacent end of the rink.
Note: This legalizes a pass out from behind the goal-line fora shot on goal, but the player who makes the pass must immediately endeavour to get onside and cannot make a second pass out or interfere in any way with an apposing player or the play until he has put himself onside.
In all face-offs every player must be on his own side of the puck.

STOUFFVILLE WINS FIRST TWO GAMES
The Intermediate Hockey League opened in Uxbridge last Friday with Stouffville as the visiting team, and winners of the game. At the opening Uxbridge had all the best of the play, but after five minutes Stouffville got their stride, and pulled up in good style. The play was clean throughout and Max Reesor of Markham had little difficulty in keeping the apposing forces in order. Stan. Slack starred for the Stouffville line and scored 2 of the goals. The full score was Stouffville 5, Uxbridge 2. F. McNair, Rusty Nendick and Gar. Lehman each bumped the rubber in the nets for a counter.
Stouffville line-up: —
Allan Hoover, goal; N. Wagg, Art Wideman, defence; Gar. Lehman, centre; Harold Lewis, R. Nendick, wings; Dinty Hodgins, S. Slack, E. Wagg and F. McNair, subs.
Again on Tuesday evening in the Stouffville Arena, the locals took the count from Markham by 2-0 in the first home game of the season. It was a hard fought battle, with the locals having a little edge on the visitors all the way. Poor ice conditions prevented fast hockey. Rice of Whitby refereed. Sutton beat Rough Hill by 3-1 O.H.A. HOCKEY
Whitby will play Stouffville next Monday night (New Year’s) instead of Tuesday night according to the schedule. Come out and see the boys on the holiday. They are playing a great game.

THE DOG DERBY
Great interest was taken in the Dog Derby in Stouffville last Saturday night, when a large crowd of people witnessed the event, some attending from Unionville, Markham and Claremont.
This is something new in the line of sports, and is interesting to the boys and girls, as well as the grown-ups. The promoter assures us that “Dog Derby” race will be a special event every Christmas week in future and perhaps another will be staged again in the winter. Boys and girls train your dogs over the corse. These races are open to every boy and girl, 15 years of younger. There will also be a free-for-all. The lucky boys on Saturday were Garnet Fleisher, age 14, Alsatian Sheppard; 2nd Billy Castle, age 8, Wire Harried Terrier; 3rd Harry Brown, Airdale; 4th Norman Lehman of Claremont, driving a Scottish Collie. DROPS TWO GAMES
After tucking away the first two games of the season the Intermediate series, O.H.A., Stouffville has tasted defeat on two occasions by very narrow margins on both games.
Last Friday night at Beaverton they took the short end of of a 2-0 count with Sutton, the fast northern line-up, and again on local ice last Monday evening with Whitby, the score was 4-3.
Monday’s game was interesting, with the visitors having the best of the combination play, as well as being a better bunch of skaters. Stouffville’s forward group are hard workers, and worried the speedy Whitby lads all the time, seldom allowing them to break away. Their weakness was inability to get in close enough to the Whitby nets to make their shots effective. The defence players made a good showing, and broke up rush after rush, while Jake Hoover in goal handled many shots in good style.
In the final period Stouffville had a golden opportunity to even the score when a visiting player was penalized, but instead the locals fouled and lost two players causing something of a sensation, but they pulled out all right. Max Reesor of Markham gave entire satisfaction as referee. Stouffville is second place in the league standing. ARENA BULLETIN
An exhibition hockey match will be played in the local arena on Monday evening, January 9, between Stouffville and the Vikings of Toronto. On Wednesday, Jan. 11, a skating carnival is announced.

SUTTON WINS LOCAL O.H.A. GROUP
The hockey crowd which fairly bulged out the sides of the Stouffville arena, were wild with excitement on Monday evening in witnessing the sudden-death game between Whitby and Sutton, which ended in a 3-2 victory for the northern las, and thereby entitled them to meet Fenelon Falls on Wednesday night this week in the first round of the semi finals. Max Reesor of Markham was slated to handle the bell at the ball game.
Seldom has such excitement prevailed at any single match. Both teams travelled at break-neck speed from start to finish, and while sensational rushes and stick work was featured all the way, no scoring was done until the last 14 minutes of the last period.
Brown the bullet-shot man on the Whitby line drove a hard one from centre ice, and although the Sutton goalie saw it, he failed to save. Three minutes later a Sutton player pushed the rubber in his own net, scoring again for Whitby. Score 2-0 and seven minutes to play. Pandemonium reigned, and Whitby fans started to figure on the semi-finals at Fenelon Falls.
Cowie for Sutton drove a nice shot from inside the blue line right into the Whitby net, and scored. Nice rushes by the Simcoe town boys rushed in two more, and with three minutes left Sutton stood in the lead 3-2. This ended the scoring. Both teams played a star game. Sutton relied on more individual rushes, and while able to go through were weak on shooting, while their opponents had a little edge on them when it came to good combinations. Sutton boys are star defence players, every man of them, and are regular demons to work.
The 500 fans were all agreed that they never saw the fortunes of a game change so quickly. First a deadlock, then a 2 goal lead for Whitby, and finally a 3-2 victory for Sutton all in the final 14 minutes of the game.

BASEBALL REPORT
After winning their first game in the local baseball league from Sutton, Stouffville journeyed to Aurora on Saturday, only to suffer a defeat at the hands of the Yonge Street aggregation, who were staging their first game at home for the season. The score was 9-10. It was a holiday for the home town people, and several notables were present to add interest to the opening game. Hon. W.H. Pice, Attorney-General, Clifford Case, K.C., M.P.P. officiated for the pitching of the first ball.
Aurora opened the scoring in the first innings when they reached Cook, on the Stouffville mound for two hits which coupled with an error netted them three runs. Hodgins replaced Cook for the home team in the fifth innings when the score stood 8-2 in favour of Aurora. The locals break came in the sixth when the boys connected with Thompson who had replaced Vail, for seven hits bring in seven runs. But this success was short lived, for Aurora stepped into the final lead in the seventh scoring two runs leaving the final score 10-9. Outstanding in hitting for Stouffville were Hodgins and Glendenning, while for Aurora, Molyneaux and Privett held the honours.

On Friday of last week Stouffville’s ball team suffered their second defeat of the season when they were beaten by Sutton on their home diamond by a score of 7-2. Although Pennock pitched a creditable game for the locals in his five innings on the mound, the visitors stepped away in the first stanza with three runs, adding four more in the fourth and fifth. The only two men to cross the plate for Stouffville were Hodgins and Pennock who secured their runs in the third and fifth innings respectively. The one bright spot in the Stouffville batting list was provided by Pete Glendenning who managed to get on base three times out of his three times at bat and also started his streak off with a double. Strike-outs for Stouffville were eight, six going to Pennock and two to Hodgins who replaced him in the sixth.

BASEBALL AND LACROSSE EVENTS
On Friday last Stouffville added to their baseball laurels when they defeated Uxbridge by a score of 4-2 at Memorial Park here. The locals entered the score sheet in the first innings when they secured four hits off Clark, netting two runs. In the third innings the infield rather went in a slump allowing the visitors to slip two runs through their fingers to tie the score. Stouffville went out in their half to pull into the league once more. Reg. Button was caught at first while the next two men walked. With two on, Glendenning sacrificed while Jack Pennock sent one out over second base for a hit all owing Wes. Boadway and Harold Cook to cross the plate putting Stouffville two ahead once more. No further scoring was done during the game each pitcher getting down to strictly tight ball. Bruce Lehman was on the mound for Stouffville.

Stouffville reversed their last meeting with Sutton on Tuesday of this week when they journeyed to that town to defeat the northerns by a score of 9 to 6. The locals managed to squeeze in three runs on three hits in the first innings. Sutton scored in the second when Summerhill got a single after a double by Hamilton. A heavy rally by Stouffville in the fourth netted them four runs on a double by Pete Glendenning and singles by Button, Wes. Boadway, Hodgins and Pennock. Sutton made a bid for the lead in the fifth and sixth when their men crossed the plate on five occasions. By the use of three pitchers, Pennock, Hodgins, and Lehman, the locals were able to hold them and add two more runs in their last batting rally leaving the final score 9 to 6.

Lacrosse fans who were lucky enough to be at the game Thursday of last week were given a treat when Stouffville and Altona met for a second time this season. It was a fast game throughout with Stouffville pulling out ahead at the end of he forth period by a score of seven to three. Both goalies starred in the nets and every player on both teams played good clean lacrosse. Hodgins especially was effective around the nets for Stouffville. The next home game will be played at the Stouffville Arena on Thursday, June 22nd when Uxbridge meets Stouffville for the first time. This will be a good game. Come and give the boys your support.

STOUFFVILLE LEADING BASEBALL LEAGUE
On Friday last week Stouffville scored their fourth straight win in the second round of the triple schedule of theYork-Ontario league. Bruce Lehman was on the mound for the locals and proved almost invincible as far as the Aurora visitors were concerned. He struck out eight men and allowed but three hits.
Aurora used two pitchers. Kay and Vail but even this failed to stem Stouffville’s flow of hits. Jack Pennock and Allen Pope proved themselves the best men at the plate each knocking out two doubles in three times at bat. The local boys went out in the innings to show that was no doubt about who as going to win the game by scoring six runs in that stanza.
The final score was 8-2.

Aurora Takes One off the Leagues Leaders
It seems as if the winning streak had broken at last as Aurora shattered the locals hope for a fifth straight win on Tuesday by defeating Stouffville 8-6. The game proved an almost sloppy affair from an onlooker’s standpoint, and although both pitchers dished out fairly good ball, strike-outs were scarce.
Poor fielding proved Stouffville’s downfall, although Aurora was much below average too. The locals were pressed hard in the fifth when Aurora scored four runs. Their own break came in the fourth when hits from Pope and Doc. Smith allowed three tallies to come in.

THE REALM OF SPORT
Perhaps the closest game of the season so far was played on Friday last when the locals journeyed to Uxbridge to defeat the northerns 3-0. Bruce Lehman pitched an almost perfect game allowing Uxbridge but two hits. Although the strike-outs were few the field was splendidly covered, each team chalking up only one error. Uxbridge came fourth with a new twirler in the person of George Smith while their old standby, Bill Clark held up the third base position. The one man who seemed to get under the new pitchers wool the most was Jack Pennock who slammed out two singles and a double in four times at bat. Cook was next in line for the batting honours getting a single and a double in his four turns. Scoring as nil until the sixth inning when Cook crossed the late for the first tally and no hits and a walk in the seventh netted two more counters and although Uxbridge pressed hard in the final moments the local boys held them to a shut-out.

A second successive win over Uxbridge was scored on Tuesday of this week when the locals defeated them 7-0 at Stouffville. Once more Stouffville were confronted with a new pitcher but this failed to have any effect as they came though with twelve hits. Jack Pennock did the twirling for Stouffville, striking out nine men and allowing but four hits.
Lou Lehman starred as the local slugger knocking out a triple, a double and a single in four turns at bat. The local rallies came in the fourth and fifth innings when they scored three runs each time.
Stouffville was forced to do some slight shifting in their line-up in the fourth innings when their third baseman Reg. Button suffered a twisted ankle while making a safe slide to second.

We stated in our last report that the last Uxbridge, Stouffville game took the prize for being close but it must needs take second place with the game staged by Stouffville and Sutton on Friday last.
Bruce Lehman kept up the standard once again striking out eight men in six innings and allowing but two hits. Stouffville filled the bases in the first inning but failed to come across with any runs. Although Sutton were not as errorless as the locals they seemed to be able to combine good pitching and tight fielding to keep our boys from the desired tie breaker. Chapell has returned to the mound for Sutton after a long lay-off and proved he had not forgotten anything in his absence from northerner’s pitching stuff.

SUTTON SNATCHES GAME ONCE STOWED AWAY.
The biggest balloon ascension of the baseball season was witnessed by the fans ay the league game in Memorial Park on Tuesday evening. The locals had the lead on Sutton by 9 to 3, when the home aggregation weakened in the fifth, and fumbled things so badly that the northerners stepped in with eight runs, and ended the period one up be 10-9. Luck soon favoured the Home-Brews once more however and they notched two runs after being handed two walks, followed by a double from Reg. Button which brought Stouffville’s only other runs. Three walks and an error allowed Sutton three more runs before the game ended, making a final score 13-11 in favour if the lakeside visitors. Lehman started the pitching for Stouffville, was followed by Cook and later Pennock. They allowed Sutton 6 hits and received 10. Eight errors against 3, largely accounted for the fatal results of the game.

On last Wednesday Stouffville paid a holiday visit to Uxbridge and passed through a tight hole by a 1 to 1 score. Each team was in good form and good hitting proved a feature of the game. Uxbridge squeezed into the league in the first innings when Walters scored on a hit by Clark. The locals worked hard and were finally rewarded in the third when L. Lehman crossed the plate on a hit by Glendenning. Had it not been for a little faulty base running Stouffville would have stepped away again in the following innings and although our boys consisted hitting gave the Uxbridge club quite a shaking up both teams held firm in the field and shut out any more runs for the rest of the game.

Stouffville stepped into second place again on Tuesday night last when they played their final return game with Uxbridge. The regular staff was on hand. Lou Lehman, catching, Bruce Lehman , pitching. Bruce struck out eleven men and limited the rest to four hits, an exceedingly fine record.
The final score was Stouffville 4, Uxbridge 2 and indicates the close playing that prevailed throughout the game. It almost started to be a walkaway in the second innings when the locals scored three runs on two hits and a walk. Uxbridge found their footing in the fifth and the seventh when King and Smith came home for two runs.
Stouffville is now in a position to battle it out with Aurora for the league title unless the two games postponed on account of rain, cause any damage. These postponed games, one with Sutton and one with Aurora will be played in the near future and it is hoped that neither of them do anything to lower Stouffville’s position in the league.

AURORA WINS LEAGUE
The baseball season ended in a whirl of excitement. Stouffville and Aurora played off for the championship, best two out of three. Each took a game and the final went to the Yonge Street town by a 9 to 7 score on Wednesday at Aurora. Both sides battled freely, and in the ninth with two down Stouffville had two on bases, but failed to score the runners. Reg. Button on third starred for Stouffville. This is the finish of a splendid season, and Stouffville Club are to be congratulated in only being nosed out of the championship by a combination team from Aurora and Newmarket.
President Clifford Case invited the club to supper at Aurora following the final play-off, which while it could not be accepted, was nonetheless appreciated, and indicated good sportsmanship.

THREE THOUSAND PEOPLE
As this paper took it annual holiday last week the big sports day and street dance won’t come in for any lengthy mention. We would like to chronicle the fact that some three thousand people were in town at night for the big program. The afternoon program in the park was probably the bet ever put on. Fourteen softball teams were here for the tournament, while the hardball game between Uxbridge and Stouffville also provided good exhibition entertainment. The baseball boys will have a nice profit from their end of the receipts and intend to do some work on the diamond. The Park Commission, too will go ahead with further improvements, chief of which is the task of tearing up the sod and levelling the grounds all over the field. This undertaking is now underway. THE OLD ELM TREE
Extensive work is being done on the park this week, carried out by the Parks Commission and the Baseball Club. The Commission have pledged $50 towards the expense of plowing up the entire field, including the baseball diamond, all of which has to be levelled and seeded at once, in an effort to make the grounds more fit for baseball. Measures have been taken to keep cars off the field, and it is not likely that it will be used for at least a year until new sod is formed. The work is something of an experiment, but we trust that the desired results will be obtained in the effort made.
The old elm tree standing at the south east side of the grounds, a land mark, so to speak, was cut down on Monday, which action has caused no end of criticism, for so many people hate to see them felled, and there has been a rush to the office of this paper to voice protest. But as the poet truthfully and reverently says, “Only God can make a tree.” We can see no point in putting up a fight at his time when the tree is lying in limb wood. The Baseball Club wanted it removed, and the Parks Commission, were informed, took a vote on the question, and decided its doom. However, the fine old elm was hollow in the center and Norman MacLean, the treeologist for the Commission declared it was rotten and it could not survive and it was really taken down as a measure of safety. The tree can be seen with its hollow trunk by all who are skeptical.

Since the baseball league opened for the season, Stouffville has been doing well. In the opening game with Uxbridge, the lads bagged a 9 to 7 victory, although they lost out to Sutton on a score of 9 to 2. Bruce Lehman was on the mound in the opening game and was replaced by Jack Pennock in the 5th, so that both twirlers had a chance to try their wings as a starter. Each team counted twelve hits off the opposing batteries.
At Sutton, Stouffville was blanked until the 5th innings, when the first man made the diamond, while Sutton got away to a grand start in the first innings with four runs and three in the second innings. After that they were shut out four times and made two singles in the sixth and seventh.

Pennock on the mound for Stouffville and Chapelle for Sutton each turned inn a fine exhibition, allowing only five hits apiece. The local twirler struck out six against the visitors three. The scoring opened up in the fourth innings when Doc. Smith crossed the plate to bring the one and only tally for the home team. Crozier then hit in the 6th for Sutton to tie the score. Good efforts were put forth by both teams to break the deadlock and the northern team was finally rewarded in the first half of the 8th when after a disputed play at second base, Smith came in on a hit by Crozier. Cook, pinch-hitter for Reesor, in the ninth started a rally which was short-lived, leaving the final score 2-1

The league game between Stouffville and Uxbridge played on July 1 proved rather a fizzle as far as close baseball was concerned. Unfortunately a thunder shower coming up in the 3rd innings delayed the game somewhat after which play was resumed on a muddy field which produced anything but tight ball. Numerous errors resulting until the seventh frame when rain halted the game definitely, Stouffville winning by a 11-4 score. The local team now hold first place in the league with Sutton, Uxbridge and Sunderland tied for second and Port Perry and Beaverton for third.
The girls softball tournament was won by Unionville. In the first game Uxbridge went down to a 12-6 defeat at the hands of the southern team. Unionville then came on to defeat Stouffville girls by a score of 12-4. WITH THE LEAFS

BALL TEAM ENTERS ONTARIO PLAY-OFFS
During our holidays, the Stouffville Baseball nine continued on with the winning stride struck in the leagues games. After defeating Sunderland in the final game for the league championship, the boys met Cambray, winners of the Lindsay district on Saturday afternoon here, and defeated them by 4 to 6 runs. The return game at Cambray was announced for this Wednesday afternoon. The boys from the north have a snappy line and are quite capable to give the locals a real argument. In the event of a defeat on Wednesday a third game will be necessary at probably Sunderland.
Stouffville virtually packed away Saturday’s win in the third innings when the visitors blew up in great style. When they came to earth again the locals had five runs registered. In an effort to stem the avalanche the visitors ran through three pitchers, but reverted to the fist twirler again. Stouffville notched their only other run in the sixth. The seventh was the most dangerous for the locals when Cambray pulled in two runs, and had the bases packed. JackPennock pitched the nine innings, and played a steady game throughout, fanning 12 men, Errors in the field accounted for the runs made against his pitching. On the whole the game was a thriller to watch, and was never surely decided until the ninth innings.
If Stouffville pulls out with a win this Wednesday in the return game with Cambray, they will be ordered to meet Barrie or Meaford.

ELIMINATE BEETON, BUT DROP 1ST TO CAYUGA
The snappy Stouffville baseball nine, champions of the local district and the Kawartha district near Lindsay, added another medal to their laurels last week by defeating Beeton in two straight games. The first game of the home-and home series was at Stouffville when the visiting team was defeated by 5-3. Last week at Beeton the score was 7 to 0 in favour of Stouffville, who took the round 12 to 3. It was Beeton’s off day on their home diamond, and the Tecumseth town lads loaded the bases time and time again only to be put out before scoring a run. Stouffville piled up most of their runs in two innings. Bruce Lehman pitched the whole way, and preformed some grandstand work by not allowing a hit, when the bases were loaded. A light rain made it bad for good ball, while the diamond was not very good.
Cayuga 9 Stouffville 6
The Stouffville nine met Cayuga, winners of the Haldimand county, at Cayuga on Tuesday and suffered their first defeat in a long time. In the lead, Stouffville blew up in the eighth when Lou Lehman sprained his ankle and was spiked by a Cayuga man running for home plate. At the time of the accident the play stood a tie, but before Cayuga was retired they ran in four runs. Jack Pennock was replaced in the fifth innings by Bruce Lehman in the pitchers block. Stouffville scored 3 in the opening stanza, 1 in the second, and 2 in the sixth, while Cayuga notch 2 in the first, 3 in the fifth, and 4 in the eighth. Return game at Stouffville Saturday at 3 o’clock.
If Stouffville wins Saturday’s game, the tie will be broken at Oakville. PROFESSIONAL HOME

WON HOME GAME FROM CAYUGA
One of the largest crowds to witness a baseball match in Stouffville this season gathered at the park on Saturday afternoon to see the local team defeat Cayuga by a score of 11 to 3, after taking the short end of the count on Tuesday at the Haldimand county seat when our team journeyed there. Each having won a game the tie was slated to be broken on neutral ground at Oakville this Wednesday afternoon. Stouffville, after winning their own league, eliminated Cambray, winners of the Kawartha league, and Beeton, winners of the South Simcoe league. Cayuga, their opponents won the Haldimand league, then eliminated Burlington winners of their district.
Saturday’s game was entertaining from a spectator’s stand pint, but the home team always had an edge on their opponents. In fact they fairly packed away the win in the first innings, when after shutting out Cayuga who went to bat first, they ran in four runs. Good batting and sloppy fielding accounted for the tally. Stouffville added three more in the third, and four in the sixth, while the visitors did a great deal of fumbling of the ball which was slugged all over the lot by the heavy-hitting home team.
Although Cayuga advanced two men to second and third in the second innings when they were retired. It was not until the fifth they got men on bases again. In this stanza they tallied one run, and a man on bases when the side went out. Their only other two runs came in the seventh, when the locals weakened a bit, for their only break in the game of any proportion.
Bruce Lehman was on the mound for Stouffville all the way, and had 11 strike outs. Cayuga used two pitchers, both being hit freely.
The local line-up:
B, Lehman p; Lou Lehman c; H. Cook 1b; Reg. Button 2nd b; D. Hodgins 3b; Jack Pennock, Pete Clendenning and Millard Reesor field.
Dr. Smith as base runner for Lou Lehman who was nursing an injured knee received at Cayuga, but as game enough to take up his job behind home plate. The boys all turned in a good game and looked like the best team, by quite big odds.
Burt of Toronto and Davis of Stouffville were official O.B.A. umpires.

After climbing the Provincial O.B.A.A. ladder to within three rounds of the top, Stouffville baseball nine were ousted from the running Wednesday last week by dropping their second game with Cayuga by a score of 3 to 0. The teams had each won one, and were playing off the rubber at Oakville with disastrous results for the York county champions. On Saturday Cayuga went a step higher to provincial honours by defeating Courtwright 10 to 11 playing in the Sarnia district.
Had Stouffville won from Cayuga they would have had only three more teams to meet for the championship and the fact that they climbed so near the top is something the boys should be proud of.

ENTER JUNIOR O.H.A.
An organization meeting of hockey enthusiasts of Stouffville was held at the rink on Monday evening when it was decided to enter a junior team in the O.H.A. again this season. It was reported that there is ample promising material here for a snappy
line-up, and with good rink facilities the season could be a promising one.
Officers were elected as follows:
Hon. President Delbert Holden
President Thos. Birkett
Vice-Prest Dr S.S. Ball
Sec’y-Treas. Fred McNair
Manager Blake Sanders
As executive was appointed of George Saunders, E.A. Button, Art. Swift, Jas. Muston, and L.E. O’Neill to act in conjunction with the other officers.
While the weather has been more suitable for lawn bowling than ice making, there may be a change any day, when Manager Baker will lose no time in laying a sheet of ice in the arena. A little co-operation on the part of the weather man would be appreciated by the hockey enthusiasts, but plenty of other folks are satisfied with things as they have been.

JUNIORS CINCH O.H.A. GAME
The junior O.H.A. hockey schedule got underway at the local arena on Friday night last when Stouffville defeated the Toronto Dukes by a score of 3-2. The Toronto team looked like a snappy aggregation in their red, white and blue sweaters but became less impressive as the game progressed with the locals pressing them hard every inch of the way.
The home team was a little unsteady during the first period allowing the Dukes to bang in the first count due to a little slackness on the part of the defence. Fans were impressed by the speedy rushes of the locals first line of Todd, Button and Holden although they failed to follow in to the same advantage around the net as the second line of Redshaw, Ashenhurst, Baker. The score was tied in the second period after about eleven minutes of play when Stewart slipped around the Toronto defence and let go an ankle high shot which proved a little too fast for the visiting goalie. Both teams held their own during the remainder of the second period although it looked at times as if the tie would be broken when each side was hard pressed due to penalties.
In less than five minutes of the third period the Dukes broke the deadlock during a scrimmage around the net. The goal was disputed by the locals who said that the puck was thrown into the net, but nevertheless it was allowed. Stouffville then bore in with a four man forward line and once again the locals second line got around the apposing defence and coasted in with the tying counter. Both teams played desperately in the last five minutes, sharp shooter Stewart finally picking a corner of the Toronto net for his third and winning goal of the game.
Victor Paxton, the local goalie did handsprings to stem the Dukes in the dying moments and excelled himself as he did during the entire game.
Line-up:
Defence — Stewart, Spencely, and Anderson
Forward — Todd, Button, Holden, Redshaw, Ashenhurst, Baker
Goal — Paxton
Referee — Max Reesor
Next game Wednesday, Jan. 2, Scarboro vs Stouffville

BASEBALL AT SUTTON MAY 24

STOUFFVILLE WINS OPENER
The Stouffville Baseball Club chalked up their first win of the season in their opening game with Sutton on the 24th when they defeated the northerners by the score of 10-6.
Sutton opened the first frame with two hits by Hamilton and Ego to start the home team off with a run. They came back with another in the third and bunched four in the fifth, Smith McKelvey and Pike doing the slugging. Stouffville big innings came in their half of the third when five men crossed the plate before the side was finally retired. The score remained 6-5 until the lucky seventh when the locals made another bid which netted them three more runs. From the fifth innings till the end of the game only one Sutton player was successful in reaching first while Stouffville finally made sure when Boadway and Button slammed a couple of safeties and reached home on hits by Baker and Reesor.
Wesley Boadway proved to be the local’s star, reaching first four times out of six trips to the plate. Batteries for Sutton were Walker and Hamilton and for Stouffville Pennock and Cook. Considering that the boys are not at full strength they are to be complimented in carrying off the honours in their first game. It is expected that Lehman and Clark two good pitchers will be joining the team in the near future.

SCHEDULED FOR THE FRIDAY
On the holiday the local nine journeyed to Port Perry where they were squeezed out of what looked like a sure victory. Stouffville led 3-0 until the eighth when the lakeshore boys rallied to such an extent that the home team were left with the short end of a 4-3 score.
The local club looked pretty sporty in their new uniforms of grey and red with black and red socks.
The O.B.A. play-offs for this league are scheduled to commence the Friday, August 9, but as yet it is uncertain who will participate. Stouffville must play either Sutton or Sunderland but as these two teams are tied it is not known which shall be the victim. It is expected to be a sudden death game will eliminate one of these two teams. ON LABOUR DAY
On Monday, Sept., 2nd. Stouffville Baseball Club and the Parks Commission are putting on a field day, consisting of a hard ball tournament of four select teams, softball, girls and boys with a limited number of teams and various other sports.
In the evening a number of wrestling bout will be staged in the Stouffville Arena. The committee are securing a number of star wrestlers from the city, and an excellent card will be assured. Keep the date in mind and watch for bills bearing complete programs.

FIELD DAY RESULTS AT THE LAKE
Orval Martin won the boat prize at the Musselman’s Lake field day competition, the boat being donated by Schell Lumber Co. of Stouffville, Miss Alma Baker, soprano, won second prize in the open amateur contest held in the evening. Doris Gledhard, daughter of one of the cottagers won first in the evening contest with her novelty and acrobatic stunts.
The field day was held on Appleton’s grounds on the south side, for which ideal weather prevailed.
Foot races, softball and horseshoe tournaments, children’s games, tug-of-war and water games were the highlights of the program. Swimming and canoe races for the younger boys provided keen competition.
One of the most amusing events, was a duck race in which live ducks were let loose in the water some distance from shore and the competitors had to swim out and catch them. The dog derby attracted entrants of all species from every section of the summer resort. LOCAL CLUB MAKE PRESENTATION TO EARL COOK.
Last night (Wednesday) was Earl — “Steamer Lucas” night at the Fleet Street Stadium, the home of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Our own Stouffville Baseball Club being the starting point for Earl’s baseball career, found it only fitting to make some recognition of the heights to which our local son has risen in the baseball world. He was presented last night with a handsome Wall Pen and Pencil set.
A number of the players still with the local club held down positions on the team when Earl did the twirling in the local Park. Last week Cook chalked up his tenth win of the season and has proved that he is in the big league to stay. He did the hurling against the Newark Bears in the twilight and floodlight game on Wednesday.

SUNDERLAND TAKES THE SERIES
On last Friday Stouffville stepped into Sunderland for the second game of their O.B.A. series play-down and walked off with the game 14-7. The northerners were in a fair way to making it two straight, leading 7-1 in the seventh, but junkin began to slip badly and the locals were able to slam out five hits off him in the one frame to net them six runs, and put them on even street. Campbell the relief pitcher for Sunderland fared no better giving up eight hits in an inning and a half. Stouffville had another field day in their final bat bringing in seven more runs to put the game on ice. There were several homers, Lou Lehman connecting for the locals and Johnston for Sunderland.
Hits Runs Errors
Sunderland 9 7 2
Stouffville 16 14 2
Locals Go Down in Sunderland Slug Fest
In the third and deciding game on Monday played in Sunderland, the local nine just crumpled up in one big slump. Several feeble rallies accounted for their six runs but Sunderland held the upper hand at all times and slugged three local pitchers quite freely. Bruce Lehman who started was yanked in the first innings in favour of Hodgins who retired in the fourth for Clark. Fair the opposing twirler went the route and allowed but seven its as against Sunderland’s fifteen.
Hits Runs Errors
Sunderland 15 15 3
Stouffville 5 6 8
The fourth annual fall tournament of the Mens’ Lawn Bowling Club of Stouffville will take place on Wednesday, Sept. 11, with the draw at 1 o’clock. Tea will be served by the Ladies’ Club, and it is expected there will be a big turnout of visitors.

SUNDERLAND NEARS THE TOP
The snappy Sunderland baseball nine, which nosed Stouffville from the local league championship this summer, have travelled along until last week they came to grips with Courtwright, the only team between them and the Ontario championship. Courtwright came up from near Windsor for the first game, meeting Sunderland in the Brock village only to be beaten by a 3-2 score, with the visitors complaining of receiving several alleged raw decisions at the home plate. On Saturday, Sunderland travelled down into southwestern Ontario where Courtwright plays better ball than they displayed in Brock township for they took the local champions for a ride to the score of 17-5. A third game will have to be played this week with the best two out of three being declared champions of the O.B.A. town groups.
All the local baseball fans are cheering for Sunderland, but they admit that Courtwright will be a hard team to defeat. Sunderland may have been thrown off their stride because of the long motor ride to the Windsor district but wait and see what happens when the teams meet at Guelph or some other point that will divide the traveling distance.

LOCAL JUNIORS CUT SOME ICE AT THE ARENA GARDENS
Stouffville Junior Hockey team stepped out on Tuesday night into the big limelight down in Maple Leaf gardens to meet the Dukes in the second round of the S.P.A. series. Although the local lads has no opportunity for practice they showed good form, and the handicaps of big ice was no great hindrance to them. At that they went down to defeat by a score of 7 to 3, which was in no way a criterion of the evenness of the teams, for they were well matched. Stouffville led 1-0 end of the second period. Vic Paxton was a whirl-wind in goal while Linter did good work, as did the other boys. On the line-up was Sam Anderson, Red Brillinger, and Lou Morden, Murray Holden, and Chub. Spencely. Max Reesor, coach says the boys are now through with the S.P.A. and will get down to practice for Junior O.H.A. winter games.

HOCKEY OPENER TUESDAY NIGHT
In arranging the junior hockey league schedule there was a mistake made in Scarboro and Stouffville home games, therefore Scarboro come here on Tuesday, Jan. 7.
The last couple of years the cry has come from local hockey fans, “why don’t we get a winning team some time.” Well that is just what Manager Hodgins has rounded up this year. With a bit of luck the hockey management have secured Bernard Draper from Mount Albert. Draper was star right wing of the Newmarket team last year, also Nerlick from Claremont, a clever centre ice man, and with last year’s squad make up the strongest team Stouffville ever had. Don’t fail to see the first game and start the boys off on the right foot.

STOUFFVILLE JUNIORS WIN 5-1
The first hockey game of the season for Stouffville’s Junior squad was played in Markham against East York on Thursday night last. The local gang threw everything they had into the game and the score was quite descriptive of the play.
Due to the condition of the ice and the fact it was a preseason tilt accounted for considerable “bush whacking” throughout. Stouffville being short two of their star performers, namely Spencely and Draper a shift in lines was necessary. A couple of less experienced subs were brought into play but on the whole gave good account of themselves.
The first period was rather ragged neither team having an advantage. Following a scoreless opening stanza he boys went to work with a will and Murray Holden opened the score sheet on a pass from John Button shortly after the beginning of the second. The locals went into the third period with a two goal lead which was added to on three occasions by Ashenhurst and Nerlick. During the dying moments, Lou Morden staged a short fistic struggle at centre ice but was speedily banished along with his East York opponent for five minutes by Referee Johnson. With less than five minutes to play off the final stanza the Yorkers sent everyman into Stouffville territory and succeeded in robbing Vic. Paxton of a 5-0 shutout.
The star performer of the game was unquestionably Ernie Nerlick the center for the local’s second line. He packs a shot that would make blush and his quick shifts and bursts of speed proved the highlight of the game. SCARBORO 4 STOUFFVILLE 4
Last week we asked you to come to the opening game and we had no idea you were going to get a dollar’s worth of hockey for 25 cents. Ask anyone who was there! Stouffville and Scarboro were the competing teams playing a tie game, 4 all. Right from the drop of the puck until the end both teams kept up.
Stouffville opened the scoring after nine minutes of play in the first period then Scarboro came right back and evened it up, with both teams missing some close ones. In the second period Scarboro scored two goals in a row, first by Thompson and the second by Harrison to make the score 3-1. But to show what the local boys are made of they came back in the last period and scored two goals to even it up. In the ten minute overtime Nerlick broke away when Scarboro was caught napping and scored for Stouffville and this lead thy held until 45 seconds to go when Scarboro tied it up. There was no particular stars in the game everyone playing their part the very best. Enthusiasm was at a fever beat, and fans nearly raised the roof several times. Paxton played a particularly fine game in the Stouffville nets.
The next game here on Wednesday, January 14, brings Aurora to town, the fastest team in the group so don’t fail to come. Over 200 cheered the boys on their first appearance this year and this was certainly appreciated.

Game Reserve
Messrs. Howard Silver and Everett Harper appeared before Markham Council asking them to pass some kind of by-law to establish the township, or part of it, as a Game Reserve. They felt that city people had no right to come out and destroy pheasants of Markham when farmers are trying their best to raise this fancy game. Mr Harper, who is a game warden, said that the government is appointing more game wardens in the district of Unionville to look after the protection of this and other game. Reeve Padget, and the council, were willing to assist in any way possible and the Reeve is interviewing the representative of the Dept. of Game and Fisheries this week to ascertain what are the best steps to be taken in the matter. It was agreed that quick action must be taken in the matter and it is expected something definite will be done at the next meeting.

LOCALS ENTER O.H.A. JR. PLAY-DOWNS
For the first time in many years an O.H.A. team in Stouffville have entered the play-offs. Journeying to Agincourt Tuesday night the locals defeated the Scarboro team 6-5 right in their town rink. Both teams put on a wonderful exhibition of hockey. The first goal came after about four minutes of play by a pass out by Nerlick to Redshaw who slammed it home without giving the goalie a chance. In a few minutes Harrison for Scarboro tied it up. The second period goals by Spencely and Harrison of Scarboro put Scarboro one up for only a short time when Nerlick notched one from a pretty combination play. Ashenhurst and Holden scored two smart goals from a nice individual rush by Nerlick making the score 5-3 to end the second period. Fire works started in the 3rd period when Morden and Harrison started a free-for-all only to be chased to the bench for five minutes. Spencely for Stouffville scored midway in the period with he score standing at 6-3 and a minute and a half to go Scarboro scored twice as Stouffville had only two men on the ice. With no less than 14 penalties and two exhibitions of boxing the game was a thriller to watch ending in a 6-5 on favour of Stouffville giving the local lads the right to meet Aurora in the play-offs.
Stouffville line-up
Goal, Paxton; Defence, Morden and Spencely; Centre, Nerlick; Wings Holden and Redshaw; Subs, Ashenhurst, Anderson, Brillinger, Baker.
Paxton in the Stouffville nets played a star game with Nerlick starring on the forward line.

Last Wednesday afternoon saw the locals drip their second ball game in a row, this time to Port Perry by a score of 3-1. Owing to the rain the game was help up for some time and was confined to seven innings. The slippery conditions of the field allows us to overlook a few errors that might have not otherwise occurred. A new figure appeared in the Stouffville line-up, his name is Bradd, and his home town is Oshawa. He pitched the opening four frames and promises to be no mean assistance to our pitching staff.
Hopes rose in a hurry in the first innings when McNeil the first man up for Port Perry struck out, but they sank just as fast on a triple by the second batter. The next man was out at first while Dainty hit to bring in the opening run. Haley struck out to retire the side. In the second, Pennock went out at first, Hodgins hit a double, Nerlick struck out, Holden reached second on an error allowing Hodgins to score. Bradd struck out to retire the side. Bradd was replaced in the fifth by Pennock. In that inning McCue took two bases on an error, McNeil and Gibson were out at first, McCue stealing third, McMillan hit over short to bring in Port Perry’s second run. Again in the seventh the visitors took Pennock for two doubles in a row and a couple of walks to score their third run. In the last of the seventh Hood made a nice hit to get on first and on a fumble by the catcher tried to take second but was called out.
The home team felt thorough chiseled on this decision but nevertheless it stood. Reesor walked but was out on second, a fielder’s choice on a hit by Clark. Button went out at first to retire the side. Dainty had been replaced on the mound by Haley in the seventh.

EARL COOK ITCHING SHUT-OUT BASEBALL
(Written for the Tribune at the Fleet Street Stadium)
It has been a long weary climb to the top for Earl Cook, but at this stage of the International Baseball League it looks as though the Lemonville Flash has made the grade. After being battered about for the better part of five seasons, Cook has mastered the art of pitching to the corners. Recovering from a bout of the flu, Cook was really allowed but two earned runs over a period of three games. He has scored two shut-outs, blanking Rochester by a 3-0 score and also applying goose-eggs to Buffalo Bisons in the second Dominion Day double-header with a 2-0 decision. He worked eight innings against Buffalo a week ago and while five runs were marked against him, three were scores due to fielding errors. With Steamer Lucas now performing for Buffalo, Earl Cook is the lone Ontario boy on the team, and his many friends are pulling for him to keep up the good work. Cook is destined for a chance in the Major Leagues as a member of the Cincinnati club, as he made a good impression while training with the Reds during spring season.

BUSINESS MEN SEE DETROIT BUT NO BALL
Four of our prominent business men left on Saturday to spend a day or two in UNCLE Sam’s domain in Detroit, when their plan to see one of the famous baseball fixtures of the American League were dashed by rain. L.E. O’Neil, the undertaker, Dinty Hodgins, west end grocery pusher, Wes Boadway, local pill pusher and proprietor of the corner drug dispensary, and Tom Birkett, who sells insurance against everything but bad luck, and even takes the sting out of that too formed the party which headed south at a late hour Saturday, bent on spending the Monday holiday in the Yankee centre. Incidentally Manager O’Neil, had he got next to one of the American ball teams hoped to have a bag of tricks that would tell a different story next year on our baseball record, but rain caused the game to be cancelled. The quartet returned on Tuesday.

TORONTO TAKES THE STILL CUP
Atone of the best lawn bowling tournaments ever held on the local greens Stouffville last Wednesday bowed to the prowess of the Hogarth rink from St. Matthews Club, Toronto, to allow the visitors to carry off the big piece of silverware known as the Still Cup, and which was in possession of the local club. The cup, donated by Mr. R.M. Still will become the permanent possession of the club winning it the most number of times in ten years for which it will be up for competition. Stouffville has won it a couple of times while St. Matthews Club held it in 1933, and this makes two years for them to hold it. F.L. Button rink gave the winners a close argument for the silverware, but Bert Lott’s Uxbridge rink beat the Button rink out of the two needed shots in the final end of the game. Lott by two won the game, but he needed four to retain the silverware, and he had it right up to the final end of the game. St. Matthews however were popular winners and were given a good hand by the crowd when the presentation was made.
McDonald’s Markham rink won second prize in the tournament and Button was third; Snell. Toronto fourth; W.R. Sanders, Stouffville fifth; and Andy McPhail, Uxbridge sixth. Forty-three rinks competed and all enjoyed the evening meal furnished by the ladies’ bowling club.

Officers, players and fans from Stouffville Baseball Club swooped down on the home of Louis Lehman here the other evening, and took their popular catcher so by surprise that he hadn’t a boot to stand on. The lads wanted to pay their respects to the newly wedded couple and what an evening it was! Opening with real ‘band’ music that could be heard to the Scarboro Townline, the group made their debut at the home. President Arthur Weldon read a neatly worded address and Manager Tim O’Neil presented an occasional chair. Despite the fact that Lou was flabbergasted he rose to the occasion and made good speech.
We hear some of the younger fry were enjoying themselves on Pike’s Pond a couple of days ago. That sounds pretty good to those who like skating and hockey.

AURORA TAKES THE OPENING GAME
The O.H.A. hockey group got underway Monday night of this week. Aurora the visiting team defeated the locals 5-2. The score did not tell the tale. The game opened very fast wit no score for five minutes. Aurora notched a goal then when Austin was off for an accidental trip they bulged the twin twice to put them three up. That was all the score in the first period.
The second period found Stouffville bewildering Aurora and they banged home two goals by Maynard and Spencely to make the score 3-2, only to fall down in the last period from lack of experience, also badly winded, while Aurora got two more goals. Maynard stood out as the star player. The rest of the boys worked ha, and with a little more coaching will be a serious threat before the season is over.
A crowd of two hundred shouting fans saw the game. The next fixture will be played here of Friday of next week when Scarboro will be the visiting team. Then on January 18 East York will be here.

March 11 1937 HOCKEY TOURNEY
The annual hockey tournament of the season opened in the Stouffville Arena, on Monday evening. Teams from Toronto are entering the contest, open to all Junior and Intermediate players. Games are scheduled for this Thursday and Friday evening, with the finals at the first of next week. There is always an exciting finish so watch the board for details of the coming games.
The well known Vikings of Toronto and the speedy Cannington team are still in the running. These teams may be seen in action Friday evening with the present arrangement.

HIGHER CLASS BALL SEEN HERE
With the reorganization of the Stouffville Baseball Club the other evening, it was announced that the locals this season would step into Intermediate A series, which is a higher grade than they have been seen in the last year or two. Entering he faster series will broaden the scope of territory from which Stouffville may draw players as material from Uxbridge, Sutton and even Port Perry may be available to us. These centres are not having a team. Stouffville, naturally may need to draw on the resources of these places in view of the fast company in which they will travel.
The league consists of Orono, Oakville, Brampton, Woodbridge, Sunderland and Stouffville. With such baseball as should be exhibited in this league, decidedly better patronage should be accorded the games in various towns.
Reeve A.E. Weldon is again president and L.E. O’Neil team manager.

DOES WELL FOR THE CHIEFS
One of the highlights of Monday’s International League Baseball game between Toronto Maple Leafs and Syracuse Chiefs was the appearance of the Stouffville product Earl Cook on the mound for the American Club, in a relief role. It was perhaps just as well for the Leafs he didn’t start, as the Toronto discard had plenty of stuff plus confidence, in the two innings that he saw service h was untouchable. They think pretty well of him over there, too and the big blond is apt to get a starting assignment one of these fine days.
May 6 937 BICYCLES MAY HAVE TO GIVE WAY TO ROLLER SKATES
Look out on the streets any fine day or evening now and we venture to say a number of ‘kids’ may be seen staggering along on roller skates. For good exhilarating exercise this is an ideal sport. Even school teachers and some of our married women recognize it as good exercise and fun. It improves the curves of the body and warps of the legs, increases the size of your kneecaps and changes the colour of your complexion, according to the firm who manufacturers roller skates. From a personal experience learning to roller skate some years ago, we agree that it changes the colour of your hide, especially when you kiss the pavement a resounding smack, as some of the lassies have been seen to do.
Roller skating between Markham an Stouffville has been established but we are not sure that it has come to stay. Anyway it has been done the past few weeks by crowds of young folks. But roller skating between Stouffville and Ringwood is even more popular because of the smoother pavement and the shorter distance.
However, as always, thee is a fly in the ointment. Here we have the village fathers talking of passing a bylaw forbidding roller skating on the roads. Children on the roads and cars speeding by them does not appear to the local legislature as sane business, thus there worry in the matter comes in.
If roller skating is prohibited on the road, just how will that bylaw jibe with the one that prohibits rolling a bicycle on the sidewalk. The peculiar variations of the law if it comes into force and learn, “you must not roller skate on the road, you are forbidden from riding a bicycle on the sidewalk.
Roller skating on the road is dangerous, but motorists have to be made to go slowly through towns and villages, and so recognize the rights of others.

A large local representation travelled to Beeton on the King’s birthday to take in the Sports Day and Celebration being held there. The Stouffville O.B.A. nine were successful in carrying off the baseball honours and copping the $25.00 prize awarded. In the first game Pitcher Bruce Lehman of the local squad turned in a no-hit, no-run appearance against Beeton’s No. 1 team. The final score was 3-1. Polgrave defeated Beeton’s second team and Stouffville whipped them into submission by a score of 12-4, Bruce again doing the twirling.

DOMINION DAY AGAIN A SUCCESS
Although the weather on Dominion Day holiday, July 1st, was more like a day in September, cool and breezy, there was a very good attendance at the baseball tournament in Memorial Park, conducted by the Stouffville Baseball Club, which this summer has drawn a bye in the O.B.A. and will not meet any league teams until later in the season. There were three teams entered in the hardball session which ran all afternoon providing a lot of fun and thrills for the fans.
In the first game the Miracles of Toronto led by one of the city’s ace twirlers defeated Stouffville by a score of 6-2. The winners then went off and defeated another Toronto aggregation, “Service Cleaners” to capture first prize. The losers played off with Stouffville and were successful in defeating the locals.
The last game was not over until 7 o’clock and a lot of chaps were late for the evening meal. Thy were just out of the grounds when the crowd started to come for the Amateur contest staged in the Arena.
Between 700 and 800 people attended the evening program and listened to the contest, which was thoroughly enjoyed for scarcely anyone left the building until the crowd sang God Save The King. There were eighteen numbers and one request number given by Mr. Carl Boadway and Miss Luella Gayman, winner of last year’s contest. They sang “The Rosary”, and the number was well received.
Little Miss Bernice Ogden, Toronto contestant captured the first prize with her acrobatic dancing, while a Stouffville girl, Mrs. Harold Lewis soloist won second. The only other village winner was Miss Thelma Atkinson who played a piano solo.

AURORA EKE OUT 5-3 WIN IN HECTIC HOCKEY STRUGGLE
Local Club Hold Lead Over Visitors Until Final Period
A tie score would have been more representative of the play , then the 5-3 decision Aurora took over Stouffville in their Junior O.H.A. game here on Monday night. Eddie Crouch’s squad fairly flew for the first two periods and took a one goal advantage over the visitors into the final round. The first period gave Stouffville a distinct edge, the second was even and in the third the advantage went to Aurora. The locals out shot Aurora 2-1 in the first twenty minutes and had goalie Tunney sprawling at every angle to keep them out. Referee Allman who had a most difficult game to handle was bombarded with protests from one side or the other all evening.
The first period was fast, and Aurora who landed in town with the utmost confidence, seemed a bit taken aback at the onslaught. After 12 minutes of play Aurora drew the first penalty for tripping and the locals stormed around desperately for the two minutes but were unable to score. Stouffville had a man in the cooler three minutes later and Aurora made things hot for Holden for a time. With only a half a minute to go Lambert Malloy opened the scoring books for the locals with probably the prettiest goal of the game. Skating very fast Jake Baker took the puck at his own blue line and as he neared the defence, passed to Malloy, who side-stepped Aurora’s rearguard, drew goalie Tunney well out into the crease and tucked the rubber neatly into the corner to end the period 1-0 for Stouffville.
In such a close checking game both clubs began to get a little hot under the collar and the second period saw considerable body-checking and rough play. Three penalties for boarding followed in rapid succession, two to Stouffville and one to Aurora. With defenseman Riddell serving the second penalty of the period for the locals, Aurora shot every man up and Mairs tied the score, giving Holden no chance to save, on a pass-out from the corner. With four minutes left in the period, Jake Baker sailed in on the right wing and shot what looked like a sure goal to the upper left-hand corner of the net. Tunney slumped to the ice and gathered in the puck which rebounded from the cushion apparently having gone completely through the mesh. A storm of protest came from the Stouffville team and supporters who harangued the referee and the goal judge on the decision. The goal judge was changed and after considerable argument play was resumed. The locals were undaunted by the “robbery” and with one minute to go, Jake worked his way in and drilled another one at Tunney which found its mark and put Stouffville on top again 2-1. By this time both tempers and sticks were flying high and with one minute to go “Red”Brillinger took exception to a rough ride in the corner from Folliet and landed out with both fists to start a general melee. It was some minutes before the smoke of battle cleared away and the two main aggressors in the disorder were banished from the ice. Play had just barely continued when Riddell took the hail from referee Allman again to leave Stouffville two men short and end the period.
With Stouffville still one man short at he outset of the third period, the Yonge Street club had every man inside the local blue line and on a close-in passing play defenseman James scored to make it 2-2. Aurora drew another penalty and again goalie Tunney was called upon to turn everything but handsprings to keep them out. With both teams pressing hard there was every chance for a break-away and Aurora capitalized on this opportunity when Wilson broke away and made no mistake in beating Holden. A few seconds later Davis got the gate for tripping and the visitors on another power splurge made it 4-2. With six minutes left to play Baker got his second goal of the game, taking a pass from Davis and flipping it over Tunney who sprawled in front of the net. The home team was revived by this new hope and barged in on every side. This proved their undoing and Collins, centre on Aurora’s first line, broke away alone with Brillinger in hot pursuit. Just over the blue line “Red” pulled Collin’ feet from under him blocking a royal chance for a score. “Rd” got the gate and Aurora were awarded a penalty shot, which went the way of most penalty shots and resounded against on the boards. Stouffville were a little disorganized in these dying minutes and Aurora scored again with two and a half minutes to go, making the final score, Aurora 5, Stouffville 3.
Penalties were eleven, with seven for Stouffville and four for Aurora.

JUNIORS GIVE CLASSY HOCKEY EXHIBITION DEFEATING EAST YORK TO TAKE SECOND PLACE IN STANDING
Stouffville did little short of covering themselves with glory on Monday night when they defeated East York 7-5 in the Unionville Arena. You can talk about your Leafs, your Bruins, your Flying Frenchman or what have you, but this time the orchids go to Stouffville.
What made the win even sweeter was that East York landed out a packed team of crack city juniors, with a view to cleaning up your local aggregation and clinching second place in the league. This Toronto suburban club presented no mean opposition and kept Stouffville battling all the way. The ice was very fast and both clubs played clean heads-up hockey all he way.
Neither team had any distinct edge in any particular period. In the opening twenty minutes, play seesawed back and forth with both teams making dangerous rushes. At the 7:50 mark Mueller for East York worked his way in close from the right wing and drilled one past Holden on the short side. Two minutes later East Yorkers drew a penalty for shoving. Stouffville shot every man up into Toronto territory and from the face-off “Bus” Taylor banged home the rubber on a pass-out from the corner. With he score tied the boys barged in continually and at thirteen minutes Joe Austin put the locals one up when he split the defence and shot a hot one from directly in front of the net. Only three minutes later Rusnell and Austin broke away at their own blue line; Ken stick-handled around the defence on the right side and let fly. The East York goalie stopped the shot but the rebound came out two or three feet and Joe breaking fast across the goal mouth netted the third one for Stouffville. Both teams drew a penalty in the next two minutes and neither were able to score on their ganging attacks. With only ten seconds left in the first period, Mackey was uncovered in front of the local net, lifted one over the prostrate form of Holden who had no chance of a save. From the face-off East Yorkers rushed four men in again and Mueller made it three-all just as the bell rang to end the period.
The second frame saw both clubs really urning it on and at the half-way mark, Jake Baker broke away alone, side-stepped the defence and left the rubber nestling nicely in the corner of the Toronto net. At 13.50 Davis wrangled the puck from a scramble in his own end, just inside the blue line he laid a perfect pass over to “Jake” who let go with a high one which the Toronto goalie could only fan on. With three minutes left, Riddell drew a penalty for cross-checking but he returned to the ice with no damage done and the period ended 5-3.
There was no let up in the last twenty minutes with the pace set in the second period. East York was desperate but steady back-checking of the Stouffville front lines upset the majority of their rushes. The high-light of the period as when Bruce Lintner, rookie right-winger on the local’s second line took a pass from Baker well inside the East York blue line and lifted it nicely into the far corner of the net to put the boys three up. There was only one penalty in the period, and that to East York for cross-checking. The Toronto club shot every man up in the dying moments of the game and Mueller, scored two more, shooting both from over the blue line, through a mass of sticks and players which blocked Holden’s view. Stouffville fans went a bit jittery at this point but with only seconds to go “Red” Brillinger broke away, skated in fast on the right wing and made no mistake as he clipped the rubber into the twine, and put the game on ice, 7-5
It was a swell game to win and Eddie Crouch’s great little team of hard-working kids stood out as never before this. Season. There were no stars

STOUFFVILLE 12, RICHMOND HILL 9
Stouffville won there first game away from home on Friday night when they defeated Richmond Hill by a score of 12-9.
From the hockey standpoint the game, particularly the first period, as a fine presentation of glorified shinny. Both teams were very erratic and the local club, despite their win, played much below their usual brand of hockey. Penalties were handed out freely and Referee Reesor managed to keep the game well in check.
Neither team gave anything to shout about in the first period although there were several close calls on the nets. Richmond Hill drew two penalties for rough play in this period, but Stouffville were unable to get organized to take advantage. At the fifteen minute mark Grosskurth for the Hill shot one out from the corner which glanced into the net off the inside of Holden’s skate to start Richmond Hill off with a nice soft one. Tat was all the scoring in the first period. One more penalty went to Harper of Stouffville.
The second period saw the beginning of the scoring jamboree. At 6 minutes Boake made it two nothing for the opposition. From this point Stouffville began to settle down. Vic Riddell scored first, and then with Richmond Hill a man short Jake Baker banged home two in rapid succession, the second one on a assist from Brillinger. One minute later White backhanded one from the corner which trickled down the side of Holden’s pads and rolled into the net to tie the score once more. Grosskurth scored again for the Hill and then the locals came back to flick the light three times in the last four minutes, Baker, Brillinger and Rusnell being the goal getters.
Stouffville entered the final twenty minutes with a two goal lead and the scoring splurge went merrily on. Austin and Brillinger put the locals out in front by four in the first five minuted. Both goals were unassisted and were both clean high shots to the corner of the net. Malloy and Able were in the cooler at half time for shoving in the corner. At this juncture in the game Richmond Hill caught Stouffville with every man inside their blue line, shot the puck down the ice and attempted the break for it. But Holden forsook his net for the time being and lumbered half way to the blue line to clear just in time. Vic Riddell dumped a Richmond Hill player a few seconds later, when he looked to be in fora sure counter. A penalty shot was awarded, which Holden stopped quite easily. There were no less than nine goals scored in the last fifteen minutes of the final period, four to Stouffville and five to the Hill. The Yonge streeters worked desperately to come close and Stouffville looked rather bad on several of the goals scored on them late in the game. The game all but ended in a free-for-all in the corner, then with a minute and a quarter to go Grosskurth took exception to being bumped at the defence by Taylor and piled into him with both fists. Spectators and players swarmed to the ice and it was not without considerable difficulty that Referee Reesor quelled the disturbance. With forty-seconds to go Riddell drew a penalty and the game ended 12-9.
Referee, Pete Reesor, Markham
There were fourteen penalties, Richmond Hill seven and Stouffville seven.

JUNIOR O.H.A. TEAM WIN FOUR STRAIGHT; CRUCIAL GAME HERE THURSDAY NIGHT WITH EAST YORK
A 9-5 shellacking to Markham on Tuesday night gave Stouffville their fourth straight win in the Junior B. series. The game was rather a drab affair, with few spectacular plays by either club. The locals first line of Austin, Brillinger and Rusnell outplayed any other combination quite handily, Austin accounting for four of his teams nice goals. Davis Lintner and Goudie were a little slow to capitalize on the break-aways and lacked the scoring punch of “Jake” Baker to make them effective. “Jake” whois a little stiffened up from a bump he received on Friday, was rested in preparation for this Thursday’s important engagement. The four penalties were equally divided. Holden was back in the nets again and warded off the Markham snipers quite nicely. Standout for Markham were Lamoreaux and Lowrie, who were always dangerous around the nt. Markham like the other two tail-end clubs are rather an unfinished outfits and tend to produce a club-stick hockey game from a spectator’s stand-pot.
Stouffville 4, Scarboro 3
Friday nights game against Scarboro in the local arena was rather spotty. The locals opened the scoring at the ten minute mark when “Jake” Baker batted home a nice rebound. The Scarboro boys made it one-all three minutes later and just as the period faded “Red” Brillinger let a hot one go from just over the blue line to make it 2-. Both teams missed several royal chances to score in the mid-session but after repeated rushes Baker netted his second counter lifting it clear of the sprawling goalie from close-in. In the last period, Joe Underwood who was playing his first scheduled game as relief goalie, was called on to stem the Scarboro rusher time and time again, when they broke free of their checks. Stouffville was also minus “Bus” Tylor who had received a slight injury in the game. Three goals were scored in this period two by Scarboro and one by Stouffville. Final count Stouffville 4. Scarboro 3.
Despite a slight skirmish near the end of the game, only five penalties were meted out in the sixty minutes.
Scarboro goalie went to the box for one minute when he attempted to bring on a fight, but the locals were unable to score, being two short men themselves at the time.
Referee Reesor.
The team will be at full strength when East York land in town on Thursday night, and this game should certainly be a highlight. LOOK FORWARD TO THE ICE CARNIVAL

TEAM SHOW THEIR HEELS TO LOCAL HOCKEYISTS
East York advanced two jumps closer to first place on Thursday when they trounced Stouffville on their own ice by the decisive score of 10-2.
There were no excuses. The visitors were just a little too good. The score certainly doesn’t indicate the play, as the home team out-shot the opposition in every period. East York showed their edge in breaking fast with three or four man rushes, usually catching Stouffville flat-footed behind their blue line. The Toronto team presented another new line-up of players from those that faced Stouffville at Unionville. As their manager told your reporter, he doesn’t find it difficult to pick fifteen good players when he has thirty-five to choose from. The team which played in this game were the pick of East York and the “Good Humor” Commercial Club.
To make matters worse the local’s were forced to bench their regular goalie Walter Holden, at the end of the first period, when, after four goals had ben shot past him, it was quite apparent the state of his health would not permit him to continue.
The boys got right back in the game, however in the mid-session and with sub-goalie Charlie Hoover holding the fort, kept the Torontonians to one goal, which came in the dying moments of the period. Hoover was completely uncovered at the time.
Stouffville threw caution to the winds in the final period and kept goalie Pardington on the jump most of the time. At 9.05 Austin and Brillinger combined to score the squad’s first goal and just ten seconds later Rusnell banged home a beauty. Stouffville were spurred on by this success and kept play considerably behind the East York blue line. Playing wide-open hockey with every man up, break-aways were inevitable, and on these Toronto scored three more.
Hoover turned in a fine effort considering his lack of practice and that his team-mates left him unprotected much of the time, as they played well up to try and at least make it close.
Frances, lanky defenseman for the visitors was carried from the ice shortly after Stouffville’s second goal when he received a nasty bump from Austin, who crashed into the defence. The game had picked up considerable fire by this time and the boys took to roughing it a bit. Penalties were five to Stouffville and one to East York.
One of the largest crowds yet this season was in attendance on Thursday and we hope you’re not discouraged folks. The boys are battling with everything they’ve got and will certainly be a threat in the play-offs, which aren’t very far distant.
The team now have an eight day lay-off before meeting Aurora this Friday. PRIZE DONORS FOR CARNIVAL

STOUFFVILLE BOW TO AURORA FOR SECOND TIME THIS SEASON
Fighting right to the last ditch, Stouffville Juniors suffered their second defeat at the hands of Aurora on Friday last, to the tune of 6-4.
The first and third periods saw locals purely out lucked as they bottled up Aurora up time and time again and did everything but put it in the net. The Yongestreeters opened their books at the four minute mark, as their right winger Wrightman coasted in easily on Still, Malloy having fallen in an attempt to stop him. One minute later saw the red light flick again for Aurora, when they batted a pass in from the corner. Aurora held their two to nothing lead till near the end of the period when the home boys clicked on two nice ones to pull within one goal of tying it up. The first one went to Malloy on a pass from Baker and the second to Taylor on a rebound. Both goes were well earned . There were no penalties in the first period.
The mid-session was rather a tough blow to Stouffville, when with two men short they were scored on twice. Play stopped near the opening of the period as Ferguson was given a penalty but before he could reach the box, Taylor, Stouffville defenseman charged into him. Referee Mike Rodden handed out a major for this bit of interfering after the whistle had blown. Play had scarcely resumed when “Red” Brillinger went the same road for an accidental trip, leaving the struggling Stouffvillites, two men short, a disadvantage of which Aurora made good use. One more penalty went to Aurora near the end of the period, but Stouffville were unable to score.
The last period found the boys able to do or die, to cut down that three goal margin. At half time Taylor laid over a perfect pass to Austin who rifled it past goalie Tunney to make it 5-3. At this point Stouffville shot every man into Aurora territory in an endeavour to tie it up, but Wilson, Aurora’s fleet-footed centre player, managed to cut loose and with Harper in pursuit sailed in on Still to put home his club’s sixth and final counter. Austin got his second goal of the game, as the period faded and thus the curtain was run down 6-4.
One of the most outstanding performances of the game from a local standpoint, was the work of Ken Rusnell, who undoubtedly turned in his best game of the season. Although Ken is not a smooth or finished player s yet, he has certainly learned how to stick to hi check and gives the defence quite a jar when he heads up centre ice. Stouffville outshot their hosts by a wide margin in the last period but couldn’t get their combination clicking around the net. Aurora only broke away on a few occasions, but when they did they made no flukes. They took continual advantage by cutting in and snapping up passes intended for Brillinger who was a bit slow in back-checking his wing.
A large delegation of local rooters accompanied the team and their support was greatly appreciated. Referee Mike Rodden, a familiar figure in the hockey realm, both professional and amateur, kept the game well in hand and certainly showed hid efficiency.
Next Friday Stouffville plays host to Richmond Hill in the last home game of the season. Richmond Hill are a much improved team and should provide quite a flourish to wind up the schedule.

JUNIORS DRAW WITH THE HILL; MAY YET TIE FOR SECOND PLACE
Coming through with a rather shady goal in the last ten seconds of play Stouffville managed to eke out a 8-8 tie with Richmond Hill on Friday night.
Neither team displayed any noticeable edge throughout the game although Richmond Hill were questionably more sure-footed when in close to the net. The home defence trio turned in a fine showing and Bruce Harper, the rookie of the three, gave a better improved performance than any other player on the ice. In addition to scoring the first goal Bruce had his poke-check working nicely and he saved smartly on several occasions when left alone to carry on the rear-guard duties.
Stouffville were thoroughly robbed in the third period when Grosskurth, star centre for the Hill, took a header over Still and landed his hand right on the puck, to shove it over the line. The goal judge, incidentally to one for the visitors, claimed it was in and since their as no immediate protest made by the club management, the decision stood, although the judge was changed for the overtime.
Bill Still’s goal tending might well be termed the “comedy of errors” with the emphasis decidedly on the comedy. Bill does insist on coming out of his cage to do battle with apposing players in his efforts to muffle their shots, and on most occasions was forced to retreat again in a not too graceful manner often leaving his stick some distance out on the ice. But nevertheless Bill, plus his antics did handle some exceptionally good saves.
Brillinger, first line right-winger who was anything but a shining star in the first two periods, came through to redeem himself at the eleventh hour of both the final period and the overtime session. There were only six seconds to play in regulation time, when “Red” sniped one from close in, on the far side of the net. In the over-time Richmond Hill bore in with four men, and just as the boys started to head down the stretch in the last five minutes, they banged home what was nearly he winning goal. Stouffville rushed every man up the ice in their last desperate attempt to get the equalizer once more, and Brillinger again managed to get the “tying slap” a rather lucky goal, which the net-minder stopped and then allowed to roll down his stick into the net.
The game was exceptionally clean, “Jake” Baker getting the only penalty and that for boarding in the second period. Mike Rodden was again handling the referee duties.
The game scheduled for Tuesday between Scarboro and Stouffville was postponed on account of the weather.
Mr. George Saunders, the fellow who keeps the Junior Hockey Boys “ship-shape” has been presented with a fine token of appreciation by the Club. You have no doubt seen George sporting his new sweater coat. Enclosed with the gift was a nice letter of appreciation signed by the boys.

FISTIC FREE-FOR -ALL MARKS ELIMINATION OF STOUFFVILLE FROM JUNIOR O.H.A. SEMI-FINALS
Giving everything they had, Stouffville’s hard-checking Junior Club, went down 3-1 before Aurora, on Friday night, to give Aurora the round 7-3.
Wilson started things for the Jubilees, when he tallied on a rebound, half way through the first period. Stouffville came back to tie it up before the first session was over, Baker shooting one from the corner which was deflected into the net off Bruce Davis’ stick. The mid-frame was scoreless, although Aurora missed some royal chances to score when on two occasions Stouffville were a man short. While the locals played rings around their hosts in the opening period, Aurora came back strong in the final round and accounted for two more, which pretty well put the series on ice.
With Bill Williams, who displayed a particularly “Dirty” unsportsmanlike streak throughout the whole game, as ringleader, a wild free-for-all started with only a minute and a half to play. Hockey equipment and players flew in every direction, and it was not until the assistance of two constables was called, that order was restored once more. Aurora had three men banished from the game for this mix-up. While Stouffville’s two participants also got the gate.
James, husky Aurora defenseman tuned in one of his best performances of the year, and was equally dangerous of the rush as he was in blocking the local’s efforts. Stouffville’s outfit all gave a good account of themselves and we must say that Charlie Hoover practically assured himself of a goalie’s berth next year by his phenomenal net-minding of the play-off series.
Of the thirteen penalties, Aurora were awarded seven. The game was delayed over a half an hour when the O.H.A. bungled in some way, and no referee appeared. Hallman of Aurora was pressed into service to fill the gap and handled things very well considering the tough job he had on his hands.
Aurora will now meet the winners of the Richmond Hill-East York series.
AURORA 4 STOUFFVILLE 2
Battling every inch of the way Stouffville went down 4-2 before Aurora Jubilees in the first game of the series. Backed by the superb net-minding of Charlie Hoover, Stouffville pressed the visitors to the limit. There was little to choose between the two clubs, and it seemed only a matter of who should get the lucky break. The checking was very close, which caused the game to appear a bit ragged at times, but nevertheless the packed rink of enthusiastic fans sure got their money’s worth.
There was just seventeen penalties chalked up, ten to the home squad and seven to the visitors. Spencely and Ferguson each went for a major for exchanging blows in the second period. Ferguson accounted for five of his teams penalties and his “rough-neck” tactics made him a constant target for the boos and jeers of the crowd.
The addition of Spencely to the line-up was a bright spot on the local horizon, and this sturdy rear guardsman certainly made his mark on not a few of the opposition, as he bowled them over right and left.
Ken Rusnell, who along with Harper, has been the stand-out rookie of the year sustained a broken nose in the third period as he was charged by the apposing player, just as the moment when he back-handed his team’s second and final counter. This is the only major injury suffered by the club in the season and is an unfortunate blow indeed.
“First blood” went to Aurora shortly after the game opened, when a shot from the blue line was deflected into the net fro Taylor’s skate. Bruce Harper set the large crowd roaring near the end of the second period when he broke in the clear, to send a hot one, waist high into the net and tie it up.
We hesitate to pick any stars as every member of the team gave everything he had. Both teams missed royal chances to score, Stouffville especially in the second period, when Riddell and Austin came in with no one to beat except the goaltender.

AURORA TAKES CHAMPIONSHIP
Losing only one game in the entire season, Aurora Jubilee Juniors romped home with the championship on Monday night, defeating Easy York 8-5 for the second game of the finals, taking the round 16-10. Aurora really piled up a creditable record, winning thirteen games and losing only one. Although the Jubilees showed a greater margin over East York than they did over Stouffville, the Toronto club put up a game fight in the two play0off games and displayed some mighty fine hockey. In the first of the final penalties were a jinx for the Yorkers, Aurora taking a three goal lead against them when they were two men short while in the second contest the Yonge Street team showed a clear-cut edge in play. Aurora will now meet Lindsay if that team is successful in putting out East Toronto.

Aurora Jubilee Juniors took the first game of the O.H.A. finals when they defeated the Orangeville Greenshirts, 4-3, after sixty minutes of wide open hockey on Monday night.
McComb of the Jubilees netted the winning count with only a minute left to play in the final period, picking the puck up outside of the crease on a pass from Graham to beat Goalie Silk in the Orangeville net. Both teams scored a single in the first period, and each netted two in the second. Aurora running away with the first half of the period, but losing in the latter sector. McComb scored twice for the Jubilees to take the scoring honours, while Preston and Mairs counted the other two. The game was played in Kitchener. The second game of the series will be played at Maple Leaf Gardens on Saturday afternoon.

ORANGEVILLE TAKES JUNIOR “C” CROWN
Defeat Aurora, 2-1 in Overtime.
Orangeville O.H.A. Junior “C” hockey team ended their game in a blaze of glory. Monday night when these battling youngsters again came from behind to beat Aurora 2 to 1 after ten minutes of overtime in the third game of the series at Maple Leaf Gardens.
From the start of the championship round the Orangeville team were behind when they dropped the first game 4-3. Then last Saturday at the Gardens, they were forced to come from behind once more and overcome a two goal lead to win out by the same score as the first game.
But their efforts last night capped anything they have done previously when they once more overtook their rivals and then won out in overtime.
For the last half of the second period and a goodly portion of the overtime the new champions held the upper hand.
After Ralph Wilson had put Aurora in front with a solo counter six minutes after the second period started, Orangeville started to click. But it was not until more than half of the final period had gone by that the eventual winners were able to tie the score. Hopkins and D. Gillespie combined, with the latter taking the pass from Aurora defence and firing a shop in the far upper corner. And forty-eight seconds after the overtime started Leach scored after a ganging play in the losers zone.
Ferguson, Mairs and Preston along with Wilson were the pick of the losers, while D. Gillespie, Hopkins, Leach, and Jefferds were the best of the new champions.

Sutton Junior Lacrosse Club asks the boys of Stouffville, especially the Junior Hockey players to consider getting Junior Lacrosse Club going in their town.
The Sutton boys sat it is lots of fun and the best conditioning for hockey. This year the O.A.l.A has made a Junior “B” series just for the towns new to the game and Sutton want a group with Beaverton, Cannington, Uxbridge, Stouffville, Aurora and Newmarket, if possible.
Last year Sutton played in the classy junior series and did not win a game but had lots of fun. Let’s all get in the “B” series.
Secretary Gene Dopp at 72 Parkway Ave. Toronto will help with organization after the fellows in Stouffville have got a group together and some old lacrosse players in Stouffville to organize a club.

DOMINION DAY PROGRAMME NOT DAUNTED BY WET WEATHER
Despite the worst that the weatherman has produced for a Dominion Day for many years, the celebration in Stouffville may be termed a success, especially the evening concert which was attended by over a thousand people. The afternoon sports, while retarded somewhat, brought several softball teams and the gate receipts were double what the Lions could have hoped for under the chilly wet weather which prevailed.
A thousand people simply held their breath when the big drum commenced to turn over a few moments before the draw took place for the Ford V-8, given away by D. F. Holden and Sons. There were some 200,000 tickets in the draw, and the lucky one belonged to George Swift, son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Swift, Stouffville. George said he did need a good car badly and everyone was overjoyed to see him win. His ticket was No. 5828. Strange as it may seem George only had four tickets in the draw while some had hundreds.
Mr. Holden announced that in addition to the car he was giving 25 extra prizes. The first 5 drawn would be given ten gals. of gasoline, the next ten would receive five gallons and the last ten on gallon of oil free.
Up to one o’clock it was believed impossible to hold an afternoon sports program, but inside of half and hour softball teams began to arrive, and by three o’clock there was a good crowd and everything was swinging along in defiance of the elements.
While the afternoon affair was all that could be hoped for and more, the evening concert in the Arena went beyond expectations. Seating was at a premium until the last number on the program. Every item was good and the McLeod Bros., Fred and Norman sure won a place here as good providers of good clean and high-class entertainment.

The Stouffville girl’s softball team pulled a major upset on Thursday evening of last week, beating the highly rated Oshawa “Dels” 12-7 right on the Motor City squads home diamond. For three innings both clubs battled in a scoreless deadlock. In the fourth, Stouffville broke the ice when Marg Smith walked and Betty Brooks singled. In the fifth, Stouffville added four more runs. Machin’s circuit clout was the big blow in the rally. Oshawa checked Stouffville’s run-scoring spree for the next three innings until they found themselves trailing 6-5 going into the ninth. Ex-Unionville’s Mavis Trunk renewed the Stouffville rally with a solid double and from that point, they couldn’t be stopped. They pushed across seven runs on five hits, two walks and an error. Oshawa counted a lone tally in their half of the ninth on an error and a double. Marg Smith, Betty Brooks, Joan Raymer and Mavis Trunk were the top batsmen for the winners. Joan Raymer and Audrey Murison shared the hurling chores for Stouffville with Mary Cole completing the battery. SOFTBALLERS EDGED 6-5 BY BROOKLIN IN 11 INNINGS
The Stouffville-Brooklin ball game staged under the lights in the Memorial Park on Monday evening went a full 11 innings before the Motormen squeezed a single tally across to win. Jack Rumney, working on the mound for the homesters, twirled a good game. Hal Gibson completed the battery. Gibson and Geo Rumney were Stouffville’s best batsmen. Stouffville led their rivals 2-1 until the seventh inning when Brooklin connected for four runs to move out front 5-2. The homesters struck back in the eighth with three runs to tie the count at 7-7. The score remained deadlocked until the 11th when the visitors counted the winner. The game-winning tally romped home when catcher Hal Gibson pegged the
ball wild to second base, allowing the runner to cross the plate. Stouffville has now won three games, lost two and tied one. They move over to Ajax for a game with Johns-Manville on Thursday evening of
this week. They play host to Pickering here on Monday night, June 24th. LOCAL SOCCER CLUB WHIP AURORA
On Saturday evening the Markham-Stouffville United soccer club scored a well- deserved victory over Aurora 11, defeating the Yonge Street squad 6-2. Four of the homesters six tallies were counted after half time. Chris Brophy put the locals out front after only five minutes of the contest had been completed, taking a perfect pass from left winger Jack Ferra. Three minutes later a similar goal was scored. Ted Greenwood made the pass to Brophy who made no mistake with his shot. Aurora counted a surprise goal midway through the first half when centre half Stan Godell attempted to back-pass the ball to goalie Walter Koster but booted it too hard and scored on his own net. A few minutes later, MSU defender Frank Mellon attacked an Aurora player illegally and a penalty kick was ordered by the official. The hard shot beat goalie Walter Koster and evened the score at 2-2. In the second half the MSU squad threw everything into their attack and forced the play into the Aurora end zone. Jack Haverkort slammed the ball between the posts for the locals third tally and Pat Woodbyrne after hitting the post came back to prove his ability and score three unanswered tallies to give the homesters a 6-2 victory. Shortly before the final goal was scored Chris Brophy had to be carried off the field after a clash with an opponent. His injury however was not as serious as was first believed. For the forthcoming league cup games MSU was drawn to play Aurora 11, Aurora 1 meets Newmarket and Brampton 1 plays Brampton 11. Bradford was excused from the first round.

CARDINALS TIE AGINCOURT5-5, SUZUKI KEYS RALLY
Ted Suzuki. the Stouffville Juvenile’s speedy short stop, delivered a key blow in the Cardinals last inning rally against Agincourt Jrs. on Tuesday evening. Trailing 5-3 in the 6th inning and with the bases loaded, the Gormley infielder slammed the ball into deep centerfield, pushing two mates across with the Cardinals’ fourth and fifth runs. With runners parked on second and third, John Little and Ross Madill were strike out victims to end the inning. Umpire Len Buckland halted the contest due to darkness.
Speedballer Lynn Taylor worked the entire six innings on the mound for the homesters. He was clipped for 9 hits, walked 3 and struck out 4. Although Agincourt’s heavy hitters touched him for several solid
clouts, their safeties were well spread out over the six-inning route. Don Haynes completed the battery.
Agincourt’s starter Ken Knightley fired fine ball for five innings. Possessing plenty of “stuff” he had Stouffville “eating out of his hand” in the early stages of the contest. Up until the fatal sixth, he allowed only 4 hits. Singles by Gord Eckardt, Bob Stover and pinch-hitter Harry Barber drove him out of the box. In the five and one- third innings he allowed 7 hits, walked 1 and fanned 4. Righthander Grant Morton, an ex-Newmarket mound star, had the misfortune to take over on the hill with only one out and the sacks loaded. He uncorked a high outside pitch to lead-off batter Ted Suzuki and with a mighty stroke the ball was sent sailing into a big hole in deep centrefield. With the winning run parked on third,
Morton settled down to fan Little and Madill in order. In two- thirds innings, he allowed one big hit, walked none and struck out two. Bob Stover’s return to the Stouffville lineup was a big factor in the
Cardinals’ success. In addition to playing errorless ball at second base, the local batsman clubbed out two singles in three trips to the plate. Ted Suzuki credited himself with a single and a double. John
Little banged out a two-bagger. Single base blows came from the bats of Ross Madill, Gord Eckardt and Harry Barber. Grant Morton was a standout at the plate for Agincourt. In four appearances he slammed three doubles and a single. He was left stranded on the sacks in the first and sixth innings. Knightley and Retter each pounded out a double and a single. Pearce connected for a two-bagger. Agincourt committed three errors while Stouffville made one miscue. Cardinals move down to Markham for a scheduled game on Friday evening with Chuck Parson’s Red Sox. RALLY FALLS SHORT; BANTAMS LOSE TO AURORA 9-5
A four-run rally staged by the Stouffville Bantams failed to overcome an eight-run lead as Aurora downed the homesters here on Friday evening 9-5. The locals counted single runs in the second, fourth and fifth and added a pair in the seventh. Aurora held a 9-2 advantage going into the fifth inning. The visitors were held off the score sheet in their final two trips to the plate. Righthander Larry Spang started on the mound. He worked one complete inning and faced three batters in the second. Although he didn’t allow a hit, he had control trouble and issued five walks. His mates committed two errors behind him. Southpaw Glenn Jackson took over in relief and finished the game. In six innings he was clipped for 4 hits, walked 1 and struck out 4. Scott went the distance on the mound for the Yonge Street crew. Possessing a good fast ball, he whiffed a total of 14 Stouffville batters. He allowed 4 hits and walked 7. Clean-up slugger Roy Gibson was Stouffville’s most potent batsman, clouting a pair of singles in three official times at the plate. The longest hits came from the bats of pitcher Glen Jackson, a triple; and outfielder Allan Boyd, a double. A single-base blow was tapped out by Jim Spang. Stone was Aurora’s best batter, clubbing a single and a double. Knowles. the lead-off batsman pounded out a triple. Dennis connected for a single. Norm Stunden and Andy Closs Sr. handled the managerial
chores for the visitor. Wilf McWhinnie and Carol Arnold coached and managed the local team. On Friday evening, June 28th. Newmarket Bantams will be the visitors here.
The Stouffville softball team formerly known as the Sluggers have been tagged with a new nameplate. From now on they will be known as “Lees Real Estate.” Mr. Harry Lee, always an ardent sports promoter here, has presented the local club with a generous contribution for the purchase of badly needed equipment. SOFTBALLERS BEAT PICKERING 15-7
Stouffville “Lee’s Real Estate” chalked up their second successive victory over Pickering on Tuesday night, whipping their rivals 15-7 right in their own back yard. They handed them a 7-1 defeat here on
Monday evening. Stouffville hammered out a total of 15 hits in the nine-inning tilt. Back-to-back home runs by Jack and Geo. Rumney in the 7th were the visitors’ only circuit clouts. Jack Rumney, in addition, to his four-base blow, also connected for a single and a double. Bud Lehman pounded out a single and a triple; Harry Young a single and a double; Ronnie Bell, a single and a double; Polly Minton two singles and Don McIntosh one single. Pyette and Moffatt each tapped out a pair of hits for the Pickering
squad’s best plate performance. The Stouffville victory boosted them into sole possession of second
place in the league standing. Brougham currently leads the loop.
Stouffville “Lees Real Estate” stepped into the Ajax park on Thursday evening of last week and handed John’s-Manville an 8-3 setback. The local squad was understaffed, fielding only eight men for the game. PUBLIC SCHOOL WINS SOFTBALL HONOURS, EDGE MARKHAM 4-3
Excitement reigned supreme in the Memorial park on Wednesday morning when the Stouffville Public School edged Markham Public School 4-3 in extra innings. It was the rubber game for the school softball
championship. Stouffville took the opener and Markham evened the series here on Monday afternoon.
Ken Elson’s double with the bases loaded in the sixth inning was the game-winning blow. Norm Albraith led off the inning with a walk and although Jimmy Hill popped out to the third baseman, Marvin Betz was safe on a sacrifice bunt when Markham’s second sacker dropped the ball when attempting to tag Galbraith. Warren Hendricks received a base on balls to load up the sacks. Markham’s pitcher Bill Johnston breezed two strikes past outfielder Ken Elson before the husky batsman lifted a Texas League double in to short centrefield to push Galbraith across the plate with the winning run. Wilf Ludlam went the distance on the mound for Stouffville with Marvin Betz completing the battery. Larry Raymer started on the hill for Markham with Bill Johnston working in relief. Wayne Corbett Lynn McMullen and Glenn Jackson counted Stouffville’s tallies in the opening inning. Markham rallied to if even the score in the third. Stouffville were held off the score sheet for 4 successive innings before chalking up their vital game-winning run in the sixth. GIRLS SOFTBALL TEAM WHIPS OSHAWA 11-2
Oshawa’s Merchant Maids were given a softball lesson they won’t forget for a day or two when the Stouffville girl’s team stepped into the Motor city and soundly trounced their rivals 11-2 last week. Fine
fielding and solid hitting was displayed by the local squad throughout the contest. Audrey Murison on the mound for the winners twirled an excellent game, allowing only four hits. An error and a double in the second inning counted Oshawa’s first run. In the seventh, McCabe of Oshawa received a base on balls and Delves tripled pushing the front-runner across with Oshawa’s second and final tally. Stouffville were held off the score sheet until the fourth inning when the roof fell in on the Oshawa club pitcher. Audrey Murison started the rally with a single. Three errors, three singles, a sacrifice and a safety by catcher Mary Cole added up to eight runs. Stouffville salted the contest away with a single run in the sixth and a pair in the seventh. The final out was made in the 7th with the bases loaded. Betty Brooks was a tower of strength both at the bat and in the field. She clouted four singles and was issued a walk in five trips to the plate. Audrey Murison and Mavis Trunk each connected for a pair of safeties. AGINCOURT TAMED WITH 2-HITTER
Righthander Harry Barber twirled a sparkling row-hitter on Wednesday evening of last week as the Juvenile Cardinals upset the Agincourt Juniors 5-1. The Stouffville curve bailer chucked a no-hitter for
five complete innings. He was touched for singles in the sixth and seventh. Ted Suzuki and Lynn Taylor rounded the sacks for a pair of runs in the fourth.

mound prowess, Barber also connected for three solid singles in four trips to the plate. Lynn Taylor tapped out a pair of singles and Wayne Redshaw slammed a home run. SOFTBALLERS BEAT PICKERING 7-4
Hal Gibson, one of the most colourful sports performers this town has seen in years, pulled out all the stops on Monday evening and clouted two home runs, one in the fifth and one in the seventh. His second round-tripper was a grand-slammer, a tremendous clout into deep centrefield. He accounted for six of Stouffville’s seven run total.

Pickering scored four runs in the fourth. The visitors held a 4-0 lead going into the fifth inning. Doug Card led off with a circuit clout to break the ice.

by Jim Thomas EXCELLENT SELECTION
It is a known fan that any club or organization will prosper and flourish only as long as it has proper leadership. The same is true for the local swimming pool project which will be an important part of
Stouffville’s recreational life. The Committee in selecting Mr. A. H. “Andy” Williams as pool manager could not have made a more excellent choice. Those who have worked closest to “Andy” know that he is very enthusiastic about any responsibility that is directed his way. His two associates Messrs. Lorne Boadway and Bill Murphy will also shoulder their share of the work that the project involves. It’s a
real challenge for these three men, one, 1 am sure they can meet and master.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. STOUFFVILLE WHIPS BROUGHAM 6-4 BY “BUNT” ATTACK
Coach Jack Watson and his Stouffville softball squad pulled an old trick out of the bag and used it to good advantage. In their home encounter with Bob Miller’s Brougham boys on Monday night, they
literally “bunted” themselves to victory. In past years, “bunts” have probably won the local veterans more softball contests than an all-out hitting attack. This practice counted the homesters a valuable pair of points here on Monday. Sling shot twirler Doug Card chalked up his second victory in a Stouffville uniform. Hal Gibson completed the battery. The hard-throwing righthander was clipped for only six hits
in the nine innings. Bob Miller, Broughams noted slow-baller was the victim of the Stouffville “bunt” attack. He allowed 13 hits. Stu. McGuckin hammered out a round- tripper for the visitors in the seventh. Earl Pilkey, recently acquired third sacker from the Claremont club, whacked out a pair of singles. Grant Johnston, a tower of strength on the Brougham team, connected for two doubles. Hal Gibson was once again Stouffville’s leading batsman, pounding out a pair of doubles. Bud Lehman, Doug Card and Jack Watson each connected for two singles. Single blows came from the bats of Lloyd Raymer, Geo Rumney, Clare Fockler and Harry Young. The local “realtors” found themselves shorthanded for the game and were forced to press Ringwood receiver Clare Fockler into service. He performed at first base, Lloyd Raymer covered second with Jack Watson on third and Bud Lehman at short. The latter pulled off the only double play of the game, snaring a line drive and doubling the runner off first base. Neil Brown, Geo Rumney and Harry Young patrolled the outfield. Gord “Swifty” Todd was on the receiving end of Bob Miller’s offerings. Elliott Handled the trapper at first base with Stu. McGuckin at second. Earl Pilkey covered the third base “hot spot” with Ivan Booth at short. CARDINALS BLANK MARKHAM 6-0. BARBER ALLOWS ONLY 4 HITS
The Stouffville Cardinal upset the Markham Red Sox 6-0 on Tuesday evening behind the four-hit pitching performance of righthander Harry Barber. The homesters scored all their runs off Markham starter. Appleton. He worked one and one-third innings on the mound for the visitors. Barber went the route for Stouffville with Don Haynes completing the battery. Ted Suzuki, the Cardinals hottest batter at the present time, tapped out a single to touch off Stouffville’s five-run rally in the first inning. John Little worked Appleton for a base on balls and right fielder Bob Stover connected for a hit. Lynn Taylor was issued a walk and Barber was safe on an error. Ross Madill’s ball was “muffed” and when the dust had cleared, five runs had crossed the plate. Don Haynes flied out to left held while Gord Eckardt and Steckley were strike out victims. The Cardinals sewed up the game in the second inning. A pair of
singles by Ted Suzuki and Bob Stover pushed Stouffville’s sixth and final run across the plate. Appleton was pulled from the mound when he walked John Little and Lynn Taylor. Chuck Parsons took over in
relief and held Stouffville off the score sheet for the remaining innings. In three and two- thirds innings, the ex-Stouffville curve ball artist registered ten strike outs. Mike Pettit with a pair of singles paced the Markham plate attack. His safeties came however, with the bases empty. Parsons and MacDonald connected for the visitors’ other safeties. Stouffville’s mound ace, Harry Barber worked six innings with an injured right hand. In spite of handicap, he whiffed five batters. He walked four men. On Friday evening of this week, Stouffville moves down to Markham’s Morgan Park to work in a rained-out game with the southern rivals. JUNIORS BLANK CLAREMONT 3-0 IN SOCCER TILT
Stouffville’s Junior soccer team chalked up their first win over Claremont when they shut out the opposition 3-0. The contest was played in Claremont. The forward line of Jerry Pheil, Don Eddington
and Barry McLean were the big guns in the Stouffville attack, scoring all three goals. Jerry Pheil opened the scoring for the local squad after twenty minutes of play with wingers Don Eddington and Barry McLean assisting. At half time, Coach Walter Koster shifted Pheil back as second centre-half in a defensive move to keep the opposition off the score sheet. The plan worked well as Claremont didn’t have a single shot on Stouffville goalie Joe Haylow. Barry McLean made it 2-0 on a neat tally, out-shifting three rival players. Five minutes later Don Eddington booted the final goal between the posts.
Bill White, Bob Corbett and Rick Wedseltoft played well on defence. Marvin Betz and Harvey Bellman worked well at centre.

by Jim Thomas NO PLACE IN SPORTS
Tuesday evenings fistic free-for-all in the Stouffville-Agincourt baseball game at the park was certainly an inexcusable affair. A number of irresponsible Agincourt players were certainly the instigators of the ridiculous schmozzle. Their unsportsmanlike attack on plate official Len Buckland a without parallel in local baseball annals. Two wrongs do not make a right, however, and the influx of Stouffville players onto the diamond only added fuel to the fire. A couple of fans who entered the fray worsened the already serious situation. A few of the more cool-headed players managed to step between the combatants and the dust finally cleared. The conduct of a few Stouffville players and spectators can not be excused, but the attack on umpire Buckland places a black mark against the Agincourt club. No referee, umpire or official should be subjected to either verbal or physical abuse. Umpire Buckland had
issued repeated warnings to the Agincourt bench before the contest was finally halted. His warnings went unheeded. One of the visiting players had already been ejected from the game in a previous inning. Although every official is subject to error, it was certainly one of the best officiated games we have witnessed locally this season. The sooner these teenage lads learn the true meaning of the word
“sportsmanship” the better it will be both for the game and themselves. If the contest had been reasonably close, there might have been some reason for dissension between the players and the official, but this wasn’t the case. When the first Agincourt player was thumbed from the game, Stouffville was leading 5-2. When the game was awarded to the homesters following relentless “heckling” from the visitor’s bench Stouffville held a one-sided 11-2 advantage. Since your reporter was an eye witness to the whole ridiculous affair, we fee that we can present a non-partial report on the proceedings. We were in complete accord with umpire Buckland’s decision to halt the game in the fifth inning. No official could continue to carry on under such conditions as existed at that point in the contest. Although the visitors expressed much dismay at Mr. Buckland’s decision, they surely must have realized that the inevitable would happen if their conduct on the bench didn’t improve. We would imagine that League president Geo. Haskett will request a full-scale report on this disgraceful exhibition of poor sportsmanship. Such conduct has no place in any sport. BALL GAME ENDS IN BRAWL
Stouffville Awarded Game
The wildest free-for-all in the lengthy history of Stouffville baseball broke out in the Memorial Park here in a scheduled Juvenile-Junior York League contest on Tuesday evening. Agincourt “Fleetliners” were the visitors. The local Cardinals. leading 11-2 in the top of the fifth inning were awarded the game by umpire Len Buckland. Umpire Buckland’ s decision came after his repeated warnings went unheeded by players on the Agincourt bench. The spark was ignited in the third inning when plate official Len Buckland ousted Agincourt batsman Jack Cosburn from the game for using abusive language. The Cardinals were leading the Fleetliners 5-2 at this point. The situation worsened in the top half of the fifth inning as darkness began to close in on game. In spite of repeated warnings issued by the plate official to players on the Agincourt bench a number of the visitors continued to heckle umpire Buckland. He immediately stopped the contest and awarded the game to Stouffville. Hearing the official’s decision, about six Agincourt players vacated the bench and charged at umpire Buckland pushing him back against the wire backstop. One player hit him across the chest with a bat. The blow was cushioned by a padded protector. In the fistic battle that followed umpire Buckland left the playing field and was not involved. Stouffville’s first baseman, Gord Eckardt was the first Cardinal player to join the fray. He and an unidentified Agincourt fielder slugged it out in a bare-fisted brawl. Team mates from both clubs raced onto the diamond and either joined in or tried to separate the combatants. A couple of fans were also involved. Injuries were confined to facial lacerations and bruises. One Agincourt player had his glasses broken. The free-Fr.-all lasted almost fifteen minutes. Umpire Len Buckland told the Tribune that he plans to file a report of the incident with North York Baseball President, George Gaskett. Coach Murray Stewart of the Cardinals voiced regret concerning the whole affair. He had previously warned his players about voicing their opinions while on the bench “If I had known such a thing might happen, I would have warned them to stay out of it,” he said’ “It’s a bad thing for our team too,” he continued.
For almost five complete innings the two teams played baseball. Harry Barber twirled a sparkling four-hitter for the winners. Ken McKnightly started on the mound for the visitors with Grant Morton
working in relief. Stouffville’s cleanup batsman, Bob Stover continued his prolific plate performance, hitting a double and a single in four appearances. Lynn Taylor also connected for a two-bagger. Single base blows came from the bats of Don Haynes, Ross Madill, Harry Barber and Ted Suzuki. Ross was Agincourt’s best, taping out a double and a single. Grant Morton clubbed a two-base blow.
July 11 1957 (con’t) M.S.U. WINS OPENER IN CUP SERIES
Markham-Stouffville Uniteds squeezed out a 4-3 victory over Aurora 11 on Saturday night. A win here on Saturday July 13th would move the homesters into the second round of the cup competition. Kick-off time is slated for 7.15. In the early minutes of Saturdays contest, the locals had a close call when a sharp Aurora shot hit the inside of the goal post and bounced back into play again. Successive tallies by Chris Brophy Gerry Pfeil and Stan Godell put the MSU squad out front 3-0. Aurora changed their style of play in the second half and resorted to long passes through the middle to set their forwards up in scoring position. The attack paid off as the Markham-Stouffville defence had trouble holding the fast Aurora forwards in check. They scored twice to cut the locals lead down to a scant one-goal margin.
Too much dribbling by forwards Stan Godell and Chris Brophy wasted a number of good scoring chances. for the Markham-Stouffville squad. Finally, Chris Brophy netted what proved to be the winner. Aurora
scored their third goal in the dying minutes of the contests but they could not notch the equalizer and even the score. In an effort to spark the local clubs efforts, three Juvenile were added to the lineup. Pint-size Barry McLean showed considerable promise and the management are hopeful that he will develop into a good soccer performer. HOLDEN’S 2-HITTER BLANKS AURORA JUVES WIN 7-0

inning alone, they committed five errors. The visitors only run was unearned.

From that point on, however, not a single Whitby player reached second base.

Our local soccer team suffered an unexpected defeat at the hands of Aurora 11 on Saturday night by a score of 4-2. The loss ousts the Stouffville-Markham Uniteds from the current cup competitions.
Although Aurora were deserving winners, injuries and a shortage of players was mainly responsible for the locals loss. At kick-off time MSU could field only eight men. Bill Gunn guarded the goal, replacing the injured Walter Koster. Heinz Franks, a spectator and a former player, joined his shorthanded team mates and Bill White, a junior, also bolstered the local lineup to ten men. The weakened homesters courageously held the Yonge Street visitors off the score sheet until Bill Gunn, the goalie, suffered a nasty cut under the chin necessitating medical attention. This injury proved to be the turning point in the game. Bernard Rutland, a newcomer to the position between the posts, filled the vacancy but the depleted home team were battling against impossible odds. Another junior, Bob Corbett was brought into the lineup, but even this failed to hold the visitors in check. Twice before half time, Aurora scored to take a 2-0 lead. When play resumed, the visitors struck again to take a three goal lead. Veteran Lou Meydam took over at left wing. Aurora hit the target once again to lead 4-0. In spite of their rivals advantage the Stouffville-Markham squad kept trying and finally a header by Chris Brophy found the Aurora goal. A few minutes later Jack Ferra’s hard shot hit the target to cut the visitors lead down to 4-2. The locals tried desperately to get back into the game but time ran out on them. Shortly before the final whistle sounded, play had to be halted when local player Stan Godell mixed it up with the Aurora goalie and suffered a cut mouth. In spite of the loss the Stouffville-Markham team deserve credit for their efforts against their stronger opposition. Juniors, Barry McLean and Bill White both performed well. It is expected also that with continued practice Bob Corbett will improve. On Saturday, July 20th, the MSU team will journey to Newmarket for a regular scheduled game. Kick-off time has been set for 6.30 p.m. GIRLS’ TEAM “RUN WILD” BEAT LOCALS 24-20

Oshawa’s pitcher, Bev. McCabe. The homesters trailed 14-4 at the end of the 4th inning. Their late-game rally fell four runs short, however, as the Motor city squad upset the favoured Stouffvillites by a score of 24-20. Oshawa practically sewed up the contest in the second inning when they

A walk to Marion Gayman, pushed the frontrunner down to second. Gwen Kennedy was thrown out short to first, but Jarvis raced home on the fielder’s choice.

In a keenly played soccer game on Saturday evening, the Markham Stouffville Uniteds scored a deserved 4-3 victory over Brampton. It was an exciting contest from the opening whistle the homesters had to
overcome a 3-0 lead to win. The match was only s few minutes old when burly Frank Melton tackled a
Brampton for ward too strongly and a penalty kick was awarded to the visitors. Their goalkeeper took the kick and scored. A few minutes later another mistake by the MSU defence resulted in a second goal.

homesters’ defences once again and notched their third goal. In spite of the lead, the MSU were not discouraged and forced the visitors into the defensive.

CARDINALS ENTER GROUP FINALS, OUST DO-NUTS
The old slogan “you have to be good to be lucky” may be true but its certain that Lady Luck was smiling on our Juvenile Cardinals here on Tuesday night. In an action-packed game, the Cards rallied with two
runs in their final turn at the plate to eke out a tight 3-2 win. The win knocked Newmarket out of the North York playoffs. Stouffville will now meet either Agincourt or Markham for the title. Newmarket appeared to have the game in the bag until the bottom half of the 5th innings. The roof dropped on their hope of extending the series as they made three errors on four batters. Newmarket’s second
sacker Bob Million made a nice stop on Murray Holden’s pinch-hit sizzler but threw wild to first base. Ted Suzuki laced a grounder into the waiting glove of third baseman Jack Keller. He threw into
the dirt at second and all hands were safe. With two mates aboard and one out Taylor lipped a single into left field. The ball took a wild bounce and got away from outfielder Forman. Holden and Suzuki scored and the game was over. Ted Suzuki, one of the most popular players to don a minor league ball
uniform here, gave the crowd reason to exercise their lungs in the third innings when he drove a tremendous 300 ft. homer over the centre field fence to overcome a one tun lead of the Canaltown boys. Both out fielders Brayan and Forhan ran deep into the daisies to snag the hit but it was over the fence with ease. It was the longest ball hit in the park this season. In addition to the homer, Suzuki walked in the first innings and got to first on an error in the 5th. His run sewed up the game and the series for the Cards. The Do-Nuts used two pitchers in the five-inning tilt. Jack Cain started but worked only 1 complete innings. He was clipped for two hits. He walked one and struck out one. Don “Gopher” Thoms took over the relief and finished the game. He gave up 5 hits. He registered 4 strike outs and walked none. Righthander Harry Barber for the Cards went the distance. He was hit freely but given solid support by outfielders Little, Redshaw and Stover. Newmarket got six hits. He issued one free pass and fanned two. Haynes completed the battery. Clean-up slugger Ross Madill was Stouffville’s most potent batter, getting two singles. Ted Suzuki’s round tripper was the homesters only extra base hit. Haynes, Taylor and Stover each got singles. Cain and McKnight each hit two safeties for the visitors and Thoms belted a double. Mill got Newmarket’s other hit. As we go to press a winner hasn’t been declared between Markham and Agincourt. However, Markham holds a 2 game lead which should be enough to take the series. The next round will be for the North York crown. Both Markham and Stouffville have filed entries in the OBA competition and the next series may be delayed in order that the Ontario playoffs can be run off. AURORA OUST BANTAMS FROM NORTH YORK PLAYOFFS
Stouffville’s Bantam baseball team fell by the wayside in the North York playoffs last week dropping a home and home encounter to Aurora by scores of 9-0 and 4-. Keith Scott’s mound prowess proved to be too much for the local batsmen who had difficulty in getting men on base. In the opener, he fired a three-hitter. He registered nine strike outs. Every player on the Aurora club connected for at least one hit. Here in Stouffville on Friday evening, the locals turned in one of their better performances. They threatened to pull the contest out of the fire in their final turn at the plate when Wayne Pennanen pumped a single through the infield with a mate aboard to break the goose egg. The Yonge Street hurler settled down to retire the next batters on strikes. BROOKLIN BELTS REALTORS 10-1 IN PLAYOFF OPENER
Brooklin’s Stevenson Motors gave proper proof on Monday night for their existence atop the South Ontario softball loop throughout the major portion of the schedule. In the first game of the group
semifinals here in Stouffville, Bill Harper and Co., so soundly trounced Harry Lee’s Realtors by a score of 10-1. Second and third games will be played in Brooklin. A disastrous third innings told the tale for Stouffville in the contest. The visitors pushed a total of 8 runs across the plate as 12 Brooklin batsmen paraded to the plate. A combination of hits, walks and errors accounted for the mid-game scoring spree. Brooklin added single tallies in the second and fifth. Stouffville counted their lone run in the 5th. Slingshot twirler Murray Woods went the distance on the mound for the winners. Stouffville batsmen couldn’t touch the offerings of the hard-firing righthander. He allowed only 2 hits in
the 9-inning game. In spite of the one-sided score, the local starter Doug Card and relief agent Jack Rumney gave up only five safe blows. Johnston was Brooklin’s best batter, whacking out two of his teams five hits. He scored three of their ten runs. Owen Mitchell and Woods collected the other hits for the winners.

There’s no denying the fact that competition in either the OBA or the OASA is an expensive business. Even if favorable weather conditions prevail, which, at this time of year is rather uncertain. It’s still going to cost the average team more money to operate than they will take in from a pass-the-hat collection. Monday evening’s game between Stouffville and Greenbank k33 an
eye-opening example of this fact. The collection amounted to $14.23. The umpires who hale from Oshawa absorbed all of the collection plus some change. The team had to furnish two new softballs and pay for the floodlights. In addition to these expenses, the Ontario Amateur Softball Association dips their hands into the homesters dwindling coffers and help themselves to a neat percentage from the top of the gate. All in all, the final result found the local squad in debt to the tune of $10.00. Remember, this was a home game on a warm summer evening under favorable weather conditions. You can realize the excessive expense involved when a club must travel more than 100 miles for a game in Wellington or Windsor or if they should have the misfortune to break two or three bats in a contest. If this is not enough, each entry must pay the required fee before it is accepted. To me, it hardly makes sense.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. BROOKLIN OUSTS :REALTORS” FROM GROUP PLAYOFFS
After absorbing a one-sided 10-1 setback at the hands of Brooklin in the group semi-final opener, Harry Lee’s Stouffville Realtors bounced back on Wednesday evening of last week end edged the powerful Motormen 12-11 to square the set.

S Speedballer Murray Woods twirled a five-hitter for Brooklin, Jack Rumney went the route on the mound for Stouffville with Bud Lehman completed the battery. Port Perry hard-baller, Bill Harper was Brooklin’s big gun. He belted
out three hits, one a towering three run homer in the seventh. Doug Card was Stouffville’s best batsman. He tagged sling-shot hurler Woods for three hits. His most resounding clout was a double in the eighth, scoring Ronnie Bell with the visitors lone tally. Stouffville threatened to break the game wide open in the second inning when they loaded up the sacks. Doug Card singled and Polly Minton hit safely. Neil Brown walked to fill bases. In spite of the opportunity, Stouffville failed to push a runner across. Croxall walked in the first and scored on D. Mitchell’s two-bagger. In the third, Gibson of Brooklin tripled and scored on Harper’s single. In the fatal 7th with Gibson and B. Mitchell parked on base, Harper delivered his circuit clout into deep centrefield. “REALTORS” WHIP GREENBANK 11-5 IN O.A.S.A. OPENER

base hit and a two base error. Righthander Jack Rumney twirled a seven-hitter. He walked three and
struck out nine. A combination of hits and errors in the first, third and sixth innings had him in some
trouble but he managed to work himself out of the jam on each occasion. He retired the side in order in the second, fifth and eighth. Joe Tamblyn worked 7 innings on the mound for the visitors. He was clipped for ten safeties. He issued seven free passes and registered 3 strike outs. Hugh Baird took over in relief and finished the contest. Greenbank jumped out front in the first inning with a pair of runs. Cornish, their leadoff batsman was hit with a wild pitch and romped home on a single into centrefield. Jim Baird bounced out pitcher to first and McKee was a strike out victim. With two out,
Wallace lined a grass-cutter past second-sacker Bud Lehman to push Cochrane across the plate. Venning popped out to third baseman Jack Watson to retire the side. A total of 11 batters paraded to the plate in Stouffville’s big five run third inning rally. Three hits, three walks, a wild pitch and an error put the homesters cut front to stay. Jack Watson started the rally rolling with a hard-hit double. Geo. Rumney was hit on the arm by a wild pitch and Clare Fockler followed through with a single. Walks to Hal Gibson and Bud Lehman, an error on Lloyd Raymer and single by Polly Minton ac-counted for the tallies. Greenbank made a last-ditch attempt to regain their early game lead when they notched a pair of runs in the sixth to pull to within one run of the local squad. A walk to McKee and a single by Venning made it 5-3. Doug Foster singled to drive in Venning but showed little respect for catcher Hal Gibson’s arm and was picked off first when he made a motion to race to second. A triple by Tamblyn in the seventh and a fly ball by Cornish scored Greenbank’s 5th and final tally. Stouffville wrapped up the game in the sixth with four runs. A pair of singles from the bats of Lloyd Raymer and Bud Lehman and two doubles by Clare Fockler and Polly Minton sewed up the contest. They added two more tallies in the seventh for good measure. Polly Minton was Stouffville’s top club-wielder with two doubles and a single. Clare Fockler, Hal gibson and Jack Watson each connected for a double and a single. Lloyd Raymer clubbed two singles. Bud Lehman and Jack Rumney each tapped out a single. Doug Foster and Don Cochrane accounted for four Greenbank’s seven safeties. Cornish, Venning and

by jim Thomas ILL FEELINGS
Some Ill feeling cropped village of Claremont with regard to the forthcoming soccer tournament which is scheduled for the Memorial Park on Monday, Sept. 2nd. Looking over the list of entries, we find that
Claremont will not be playing here in the holiday tourney. They weren’t invited. Needless to say, some of the enthusiastic soccer promoters in our neighboring village are more than “hot under the collar” over the matter. Since the entry list has been posted charges and counter charges have been issuing back and forth from both sides. Your reporter was besieged by protesting parties when he unknowingly
ventured across the enemy line n Monday morning. “They’re afraid of us,” said one man. “They say were too rough,” charged another. “We’ve brought good crowds to Stouffville in past years. Why don’t
they want us now?” questioned another. Being unable to provide an answer to the volley of inquiries, I turned to the manager of the Stouffville team, Mr.Lou Meydam for an immediate solution to the problem. Here is how he explained. “hTa’t a touchy problem,” He said that a few days ago a meeting was held in order to arrange the six-team tourney. He noted that a number of clubs requested that Claremont should NOT be invited because “they were too rough.” He said that at least one team threatened to drop out if Claremont were asked to participate. “We didn’t want the tournament
to develop into a brawl as it would give the sport a bad name here,” he continued. Mr. Meydam agreed that Claremont had always been a good crowd-drawer in Stouffville, but due to the stand taken by other
teams, he was left with no alternative. HE definitely denied a remark made by one Claremont supporter, that they were not wanted because they fielded an all-Canadian club. “This is not true,” he said. “soccer is an international sport and racial differences are not involved in any way.” “We have both all-Canadians and new Canadians on our Stouffville club,” he continued. And so the water boils. It is too bad that an ill feeling should be created between the two towns. There’s no denying the fact that the organizers of the tournament were put on the spot. According to our information, the success of the tourney appeared to hinge on the management’s decision. Whether the accusations made by outside teams are correct or false we are not prepared to say. We have not seen the Claremont club in action in a scheduled game this season, so, we cannot state an opinion on this fact. LIFEGUARD RECEIVE MEDALLIONS
Five local lifeguards received their bronze medallions from the Royal Lifesaving Society in Toronto on Friday. The successful entrants were Isobel Chambers, Linda Todd, Barbara Williams, Elizabeth Rae and Rick Wedseltoft. Each has been a regular lifeguard at the community swimming pool since it opened last month. Mr. Wm. Murphy was also successful in passing the Royal Lifesaving Instructors test on Thursday morning of this week. The Juniors, Intermediates and Seniors will try their tests commencing at 10 am. On Friday the Beginners test will be given. GIRLS TEAM LOSES TO NEWMARKET 10-0
Stouffville’s girls team ran into rather strong opposition when they stepped into Newmarket on Monday night. In the first game of the Provincial Women’s softball playdowns ,the locals were blanked 10 by
the Canaltown crew. Although playing in ‘B’ class competition, they will be allowed to drop into ‘C’ class if ousted by the County Town girls. Stouffville was able to field only 8 regular players for the playoff
opener. Carol Jagger was used in the outfield to complete the lineup. Joan Raymer handled the hurling chores with Doreen Jarvis completing the battery. The local entry had a number of fine opportunities to
chalk up runs but on each occasion, they left their players stranded on base. Four times in the nine-inning tilt, they packed the sacks but they failed to advance. Mavis Trunk the agile in-fielder from Unionville could not attend the game, forcing a last- minute change in lineup. Edna Brown covered
first with Marion Gayman on second. Gwen Kennedy worked at third with Marg Smith on short. Joyce Robert, Betty Brooks and Carol Jagger performed in the outfield. Joan Raymer, the homesters pitcher described the opposition as a good well-balanced team. She felt however that they weren’t as strong as
Bright, the team that eliminated Stouffville last year. Newmarket captured the Intermediate ‘B‘ Championship in ’56. BROOKLIN BEATS REALTORS 8-2 IN O.A.S.A. OPENER
The Stouffville Realtors have been placed in the uncomfortable position of playing Brooklin in the second round of the OASA playoffs. Bill Harper’s squad had previously ousted the homesters from the group play-downs in three games. In the series opener, played under the lights in Stouffville on Monday
evening sling-shot twirler Murray Woods hurled the Motormen to an 8-2 victory. The Brooklin speedballer held the Stouffville club off the score sheet until the sixth inning. Although he appeared to weaken slightly in the sixth inning, he had enough reserve strength to finish the game. He aided his own cause by hammering out a round-tripper in the fourth. Trailing 4-0 in the sixth, Lloyd Raymer broke the ice with a 4- base clout. Hal Gibson and Jack Rumney singled and Geo. Rumney sizzled a line drive off Wood’s glove to load up the sacks. With two out, first sacker Bob Hassard bounced out second to first to retire the side. Brooklin counted a pair of runs in the eighth. Geo. Rumney dropped Carnwith’s long fly ball and moved to third base on the error. Bill Harper singled to push the front runner across the plate. Harper scored when Wood’s fly ball was dropped in the outfield. Stouffville collected their second and final run in the bottom half of the eighth. Polly Minton clouted a double over first base and raced to third when the infielder fumbled the ball. Pitcher Doug Card singled to score Minton. Single base blows by Hal Gibson and Geo. Rumney with one out loaded up the bases but Bob Hassard hit into a fielder’s choice and Neil Brown was a strikeout victim to end the attempted rally. The ninth inning saw a combination of hits and errors salt the game away for the visitors. B. Mitchell romped around to third base when geo. Rumney dropped his long fly ball. Doug Mitchell tripled into left field to score the frontrunner. D. Mitchell crossed the plate after Bill Harper’s fly ball was gathered in by Geo. Rumney.
As in previous innings Stouffville tapped out safe hits in their final trip to the plate, but the runners were left stranded. Jack Watson and Polly Minton singled but Lloyd Raymer popped out. Doug Card was a
strikeout victim and Hal Gibson popped out to the short stop. In the vital statistics errors department. Stouffville scored two runs off ten hits. They committed 4 errors. Brooklin counted 8 runs off t11
hits and bobbled the ball on 2 occasions. Bill Harper was Brooklin’s best batter, clouting a home Run and a single. Polly Minton, Hal Gibson and Geo. Rumney each pounded out two hits, while Jack Rumney, Lloyd Raymer, Jack Watson and Doug Card each had one hit.

SOCCER TEAM BLANKED 5-0 IN CUP COMPETITION
The Stouffville-Markham soccer team were badly beaten on their home grounds, Saturday afternoon by Collingwood 5-0, in the first game of the Eastern Ontario Cup competition. The return match will be played back in Collingwood on Saturday, Sept. 21st. To avoid elimination the local squad must win by a six-goal margin. The unusual early kickoff at 3 pm on Saturday afternoon found the homesters shorthanded. In an effort to till the gaps in their lineup they had to use substitutes which weakened the team’s effort. At half time Collingwood held a 1-0 lead. When the visitors made it 2-0 the Stouffville-Markham team threw everything into an offensive attack in an effort to regain the goals. The plan back-fired however, and Collingwood booted three more tallies into the locals’ net. LAWN BOWLING NEWS

Could it be possible that we have been under-rating our Bantam baseball team throughout the entire season? Can it be that our so-called “weak link” will prove to be our strongest entry. It hardly seems feasible but it could easily be the case. Two months ago we wouldn’t have given the local squad the slightest hope of making a mark in the Ontario playoffs. Now they find themselves in the semifinals only one victory away from a bid for the ’C’ class honours. Too often we forget that Stouffville is still a town with a population figure of less than 2,500. During the regular North York schedule our boys were performing against towns more than three times our size. It is only natural that at times this type of opposition made our club look bad. Now, it seems, that when pitted against a rival of similar
classification our team looks as good or even better than their opponents. On Saturday afternoon, the Bantams with coach Will McWhlnnie and Manager Carl Arnold at the helm, will journey to Wellington for the rubber game of the series. The winner will meet Wheatley for the championship. It is no secret that ninety per cent of the club’s success rests on the left arm of southpaw Glenn Jackson. After working the kinks out in the opener, the local lefty twirled a fine game here on Saturday and registered a 6-3 victory. It is likely he will get the nod for the mound chores again this week. The best of luck goes with the boys in their quest of the Bantam honours. POLLY MINTON TO COACH JUNIOR JETS
Polly Minton will return as Coach of the Unionville Jets for the 1957-58 season. The manager will be mr. Herb Holdsworth. According to the latest reports their classification is not definite. They may enter either ‘C’ or ‘D’ class. Unionville will lose at least four players this season. Goalie Bruce Middleton, defencemen Gus Olmsted and Jim Stunden and forward Geo. Carey will not line up with the Jets this winter. Don Tran and Jim Rennie will probably play with Stouffville.

LOCAL QUARTETTE BAG GIANT MOOSE IN NORTHERN BUSH
Messrs. Ernie Austin, Norman O’Boyle, Roy Heaton and Dr. J. Button have returned to Stouffville with the distinction of having bagged the largest moose to be shot so far in the Algoma district, north of
Sudbury, this year. A shot from the gun of Roy Heaton toppled the big fellow. The moose was estimated to weigh about eighteen hundred i pounds and the local men brought home the set of antlers which have a spread of sixty- five and three quarter inches. The party stated that hunters were very numerous in this section of the northland, hundreds driving in by car. Our local huntsmen will be in line for government recognition with their giant antlers providing no one else tops this size in the remainder of the season. BANTAMS OUSTED BY WELLINGTON 7-1 IN “RUBBER”
Stouffville’s Cinderella Bantams baseball team came to the end of the playoff road on Wednesday afternoon of last week when they dropped a 7-1 decision to Wellington. it was the third and final game of the Ontario semi-finals. Wellington took the opener 17-16 but Stouffville Battled back to even the series with a 6-3 victory here. Wellington is now playing Wheatley for the Ontario championship. A distance of 400 miles separates the two towns. The game had been previously arranged for Oct. 12th but since more than half the players were sidelined with the flu, the contest was postponed. Lefthander Glenn Jackson went the distance on the mound for Stouffville. Two errors and a pair of hits for Wellington in the first inning allowed the winners to jump into a 2-0 lead. They added tallies in the fourth, sixth and seventh. They pushed two runs across the plate in their final turn at bat.
Lynn McMullen counted Stouffville’s only run in the third inning. He walked and with two out, raced home on a hit from Norm Galbraith. Roger Todd, Larry McMullen and Norm Galbraith were Stouffville’s best batters. LADIES BOWLING LEAGUE

PLOWBOYS WIN AT INTERNATIONAL
As usual, York County was well represented in various classes at the International Plowing Match at Simcoe where they won their share of firsts and other prizes, including the hard-fought Inter-County
Competition which covered two days of plowing. The boys on the County team were carl Timbers of stouffville and Ross kennedy of markham, with Ag. Rep. W.M. Cockburn as team manager. Floyd steckley of Stouffville and cameron Kennedy of Markham coached the boys. On Thursday the coaches were allowed to help from the headland but on Friday no person was permitted to be near or talk to the boys. The scores on Thursday’s and Friday’s lands were totalled to decide the winner, with 19 counties competing. This makes two wins on the trophy now for York County and we congratulate the boys.

Our minor hockey organization here in Stouffville is rapidly rounding into shape. In the organized ranks, we will ice a Bantam, a midget and a juvenile team in the O.M.H.A. In addition we have four Peewee
clubs, four Peewee (Bantam) teams and two minor Bantam clubs. How will they fare in the forthcoming hockey wars? It is rather difficult to predict the success of any club at this stage of the game but in looking over their rosters, this is how they rate in my estimation. The Juveniles, under the watchful eye of coach Bob Bangay appear the strongest of our three entries. Next in line I would rate the Midgets
with brother Nick Bangay at the helm. This club is comprised of an enthusiastic group of lads who are eager to score goal and win games. They have had enough practice in Bantam competition last season to
make them more potent to visiting opposition. Last, but by no means least comes the bantams under coaches Hal Gibson and keith Sutherland. For the majority of these players, it will be their first season in
league competition and some chaps have to overcome the effects of stage fright. Having performed in Peewee (Bantam) house league last winter, they still have much to learn and could be easy prey against
more experienced players. Time alone will tell. TEN JUVENILE PLAYERS SIGNED UP
CoachBob Bangay and Manager Ken Wagg signed a total of 10 players following their Monday night practice session. They plan to carry 18 players. The following boys have placed their signatures on the dotted line to date: Rolf Sundquist, Doug Cooper, Ted Suzuki, Don brillinger, Bill Bunker, Gord Eckhardt, Howard malcolm, Dean Evans, and Earl Thompson. The most encouraging note in regard to Monday’s workout was the appearance of goaltender Don Brillinger, a new recruit here. Barry Wilkes, a student err O.V.C. Guelph, will also be signed and will play when available. Doug Cooper, a newcomer to Stouffville hockey circles, is one of the smoothest skating forwards to line up here in several years. he
performed with toronto Marlboros in the T.H.L. last winter. BILL CORNER FIRES HAT TRICK
Bill Corner, playing his first season in Peewee (Bantam) company, opened the schedule on Monday night with a three goal hat trick. Paced by Corner’s goal-getting performance, the Maple Leafs defeated
the canadiens 5-1. Billy Payne notched the lone Canadiens goal on a pass from Water Winn.
Jim Goudie blinked the light for the Leaf’s first gaol with Bill Corner picking up the assist. Ken Aida netted his opening sally of the young season unassisted. he picked up an assist on one of
Corner’s three goals. The other two were unassisted. PEEWEE LINEUP

All the thrill and colour of the inter-collegiate rugby game were packed into last week’s Markham – Stouffville High School encounter on Wednesday afternoon. The homesters upset their southern rival by a score of 11-7. Bob Stover’s 100 yard touchdown plunge was the feature individual play of the hard fought game. he picked the ball up on his own 10 yard line and romped through the entire markham squad for a six-point touchdown. On at least three occasions during his long-distance up-field advance he found himself surrounded by determined Markham blockers but each time he managed to shake himself free. Stover’s efforts amazed even the partisan visiting rooters. Stouffville jumped into a 3-0 lead early in the contest whenGord Eckhardt booted a field goal from a difficult angle. The convert was
wide by a couple of inches. The homesters salted the game away when Gord Eckhardt trapped markham’s Tidsbury behind his own goal line for a two point gain. In the final quarter, the visitors resorted to an aerial attack but the majority of their passes were knocked down by a strong Stouffville
defence. One of the most tense situations of the game occurred in the second quarter when, with 25 yards to go, Markham completed a 22 yard pass on Stouffville’s doorstep with the goal to go, the locals miraculously held the fort to protect their lead. Bob Stover, Fred Abraham, Ron homespun, Gord Eckhardt and Tom McCreight excelled for the winners. John Little showed tremendous kicking power despite the strong wind. Carol Skinner, and her band of enthusiastic cheerleaders provided the boys with the needed encouragement to upset their southern neighbours and provide sweet revenge for a past 14-0 whitewash. Hot dogs replaced the energy consumed by Stouffville’s vociferous supporters. JOHN MARSHALL HEAD BADMINTON CLUB
Mr. John Marshall is the new President of the Stouffville Badminton Club. The election of officers was held on Monday evening. Other members of the Executive are as follows: Vice Pres., Noel Storey,
Sec.-Treas., Oliver Priestly, Social Committee — Carol McDermott, Jean O’Neill, Mildred Sherwood and Jeanette Waite. CLIPPERS HAVE SIGNED 14 PLAYERS
The 1957-58 edition of the Stouffville Clippers is rapidly taking form. To date 14 players have signed their names on the dotted line and more will be added next week. The Tribune is confident this year’s entry will be of championship calibre. To date, the roster includes two complete forward lines, two sets of defenceman, two netminders and two extra frontline performers. Elmo Gibson, noted Brooklin hockey and softball star has, for the present, earned a pivot position between fast-stepping wingers, Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman. A powerful Pickering trio, comprising Pete Lacey, Gord Comport and Bob Jones will round out the other forward line threesome. Bruce McDowell and Normie Neal have also been signed. Defence combinations to date are Tip Vipond and Russ Forfar, Bob McIntyre and Jim Cruikshank. Both netminders Geo. Wilkins bad Bruce Middleton have been obtained for puck-stopping duties. Manager Lee has his eye os a pair of Aurora prospects but will not make a move to obtain their services until he knows more about Aurora’s Intermediate hockey plans. Ted Vanderpol and Howard Bullock have been attending Stouffville’s regular weekly workouts. They are Aurora’s property at present. The other potent rearguards, Don McIntosh and Bob Burns are also on the Manager’s Lee list. Neither player has expressed his intentions to date. The Clippers, in Intermediate ‘B’ ranks, will be allowed to sign four imports. Manager Lee stated firmly that all positions on the club are still open. None of the certificates have been sent in to the O.H.A. and last minute changes are possible. BRAMPTON SRS. EDGE CLIPPERS 7-6, GIBSON GETS TWO
The Stouffville Clippers, competing in their first pre-schedule game of the season, dropped a 7-5 decision to Gregg Currrie’s Brampton Seniors last week. The Clippers spotted their rivals three goals in the first period, but they battled back to even the score in the second farm with three unanswered tallies. Each club counted a pair in the final session. Ex-Brooklin Junior star, Elmo Gibson paced the Stouffville attack with two goals. Single tallies came from the sticks of Ted Vanderpol, Pete Lacey and Jim Cruikshank. Russ Forfar was a tower of strength on the Clipper rearguard. Coach Gord Lewis used both goaltenders, Geo. Wilkins and Bruce Middleton in the nets. Coach Currie iced a formidable squad, comprising a number do ex-Lyndhurst Motors performers including Moe Galand, Don Couch and Al
Mugford. Ex-Clipper, Frank Stephenson was also in the Brampton line-up. HORNETS SCORE SHUT OUT, BROWN POTS PAIR
Agile Ross Brown potted a pair of goals last week to lead the Pittsburg Hornets to a 3-0 win over Buffalo. Jimmy Harper notched a single tally. Both brown and Harper picked up a single assist.
Netminder David james chalked up his first shut out performance in his first game of the young season. Wayne Oldham guarded the cage for Buffalo. HAWKS WIN 9-2, REDSHAW BAGS 4
Claremont’s Ted Redshaw, playing his first game of the Lions Peewee Schedule in a Black Hawk uniform, fired four goals and picked up one assist as Chicago whipped the Rangers 9-2. Redshaw, centering a first
string line with Keith Betz and Arlan Galbraith, led the attack for the winners. Galbraith potted a pair of goals and assisted on one. Tom Benson, playing defence, fired two tallies. The Rangers’ two goals were divided between Blair Wagg and Jim Mehaffey. Wings 1, Bruins 0 Richard Yakely, performing in the Bruin’s net for the first time in his young hockey career, chalked up a shutout as his club blanked the
Red Wings 1-0. The little puck-stopper turned in a fine job and blocked many goal-labelled shots. At the other end of of the rink, Bill Farthing turned in a good game in the Red Wing goal. He had little chance to block the one shot that evaded him. Fast-stepping Ronnie Castle spoiled the Red Wings’ debut with the lone goal in the contest. He picked up a loose puck out side the Detroit blueline and skated in alone on the net. His low, hard shot caught the corner of the cage. J. GOUDIE NETS THE HAT TRICK FOR LEAFS
Jim Goudie, a member of the Maple Leafs in the Lions Peewee (Bantam) League, is currently one of the top marksmen in the four team group. In two games he has scored a total of four goals as his club has
chalked up two impressive victories. On Monday evening, Lloyd Jennings’ Leaf whipped Buffalo 5-3. Jim
Goudie paced the winner’s attack with a three-goal hat trick. Bill Corner and Kenny Aida notched singles. Corner picked up a pair of assists and Aida assisted on one. Wayne Crowder fired a pair for the winless Buffalo squad. Joe Holt counted one. Mike Cadieux picked up an assist on Crowder’s first tally.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas COACHES COACH ALIKE
This season, under the Chairmanship of Don Davis, Stouffville’s minor hockey organization has been completely re-vamped in order that the most boys might gain more ice time at the least possible cost. In addition, another important step has been taken to handle the individual entries. This winter, each team from the Bantams through to the Juveniles, will be coached along a similar style of hockey.
Not to speak disparagingly of former coaches. It has always been my feeling our coaches in previous years did not follow similar patterns of offensive and defensive plays. Hence, a boy would emerge out of Bantam and move into Midget competition only to discover that he must change hi style entirely. This, I believe, is a deterrent to the development of good local hockey talent. Most coaches will agree that there are two basic types of team play. The one, is where the wingers skate from end to end and the centreman patrols an area at the blueline when the puck is inside his own zone. The other type is to have the centreman, when on the defensive, go into the corners in an attempt to recover the puck and relay it to a winger who is patrolling an area near the blueline. The first scheme is the one that is being adopted by all our coaches this season. I personally do not intend to state which defensive style in best. Both have been used to good advantage. I do think, however, that one basic style should be adopted and maintained through out our minor league system. Coaches Bob Bangay, Nick Bangay and Hal Gibson are strict adherents to the first type of play and they intend to adopt it here this winter. This might solve a problem that has been plaguing our lads for many years.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. BILL PAYNE LEADS CANADIENS TO WIN
Fast-stepping Billy Payne paced the Canadiens to their first win of the season on Monday evening in the Peewee Bantam league. The agile forward fired two goals and picked up one assist as his club chalked up a 3-0 victory. Brian Madill notched one tally and assisted on one. Buffalo have yet to win a game after three starts. Canadiens have one win and two ties.In the other contest. Pittsburg led by dipsy-doodle artist Ross Brown counted a 3-1 win over the Leafs. Both rallies potted by Brown were unassisted. Him Foote blinked the light for the other Hornet goal with Jim Hill picking up an assist. Although Jim Hill failed to score a goal he turned in a fine two-way effort for his best game of the
season to date. CASTLE NETS HAT TRICK, WING WIN
Stouffville’s Ronnie Castle is currently one of the lop marksmen in the Lions Peewee
League. On Thursday afternoon, the speedy front line forward fired three unassisted goals as the Red Wings blanked the Rangers 4-0. Larry Plaskitt netted a single on a pass from Paul Lintner. In the opening game of the doubleheader, centreman Ted Redshaw and defenceman Tom Benson each counted three goals as the Black Hawks trimmed the Bruins 8-2. In two games Redshaw has scored a total of seven goals. Wallace Pugh potted a pair for hie winners. Seven of the Canadiens eight tallies were unassisted. Tom Benson picked up an assist on one of Wallace Pugh’s goals. Murray Fenwick notched one for the Bruins and Bill Corner score the other on a pass from Donald Smith. The Red Wings and Black Hawks are currently heading the group, each with two wins and no losses. They will meet in an important game on Thursday afternoon of this week at 5.30 p.m. Rangers will battle the Bruins at 4.30 p.m. SCHOOL QUARTERBACK BREAKS COLLARBONE
Stouffville’s chances of winning the Georgian Bay District Secondary School association rugby championship suffered a crippling blow on Saturday afternoon when star quarterback John Little suffered a broken collarbone. The injury occurred in the second quarter of a game with Pickering College. The local athlete had received a kick and in attempting to run the ball back through the entire Pickering team was hit hard and felled to the ground. He was carried off the field by players from both clubs. Stouffville were blanked 36-0 in the first game of the home and home encounter. they lost 41-0 here in Stouffville on Tuesday afternoon. Pickering College will now advance into the eastern Ontario senior ‘B’ championship finals. Tweed District High School will provide the opposition. Markham and
Stouffville completed the schedule in a second-place tie each scored one victory and suffered three defeats. Pickering College swept four games in a row. In Saturday’s contest both clubs were forced to play on a snow-covered field Pickering College led 18-0 at half time. They chalked up their 36 points on six touchdowns. They completed no converts. Steve Kennedy was Stouffville’s top performer. Lawrence Wideman, Tom McCreight and Gord Burkholder also looked good. Bob Stover filled in at quarterback for the injured John Little. Stouffville’s defence was further weakened in the local’s home encounter on Tuesday. Ed Buchanan was out of the lineup and Tom McCreight was tossed out of the game by the official. John Almstead acted as quarterback and Ron Thomson did the kicking. Don Bruce, Bob
Stover and Steve Kennedy weren’t best. The Pickering College crew employed a confusing reverse play to good advantage and soon rolled tip a one-sided score. Their ball carriers were given good blocking. Coach Jim Rehill had nothing but the highest praise for his Stouffville recruits. He said they gave their best against a powerhouse Pickering College club.

SHORTHANDED CLIPPERS LOSE TO BRADFORD 5-2.
Bradford strengthened by imports from the now defunct Aurora Bel-Aires and Newmarket chalked up a 5-2 victory over the Clippers on Saturday night in a pre- schedule exhibition game. Paced by the lanky Don “Spider” Gibson. the winners held a 3-2 edge going into the third period. They notched two unanswered tallies in the final frame. Harold Hodgson and Wilmot Gates blinked the light for
Stouffville. The Clippers were shorthanded for the contest and Coach Jack Watson found it necessary to break up prearranged forward lines. Both Stouffville netminders, Geo. Wilkins and Bruce Middleton
performed between the pipes. Coach Watson said that the score definitely didn’t indicate the . He pointed out although Stouffville held an edge in the territorial play in the third, Bradford out-scored them. The Clippers have acquired the services of Aurora sharp- shooter, Bill Ncholus. He was one of the leading marksmen for the champion Bel-Aires last . Howard Bullock also an ex-Aurora forward has
been signed. Neither player was in the lineup for Saturday’s game. Howard Forgie has also signed his name to the dotted line. A group meeting of the local league will be held on Sunday, Dec 1st. Tim O’Neill has been named convener of the group. THORNHILL TRIMS LOCALS 5-2 IN EXHIBITION GAME
For twenty minutes Stouffville’s Juvenile hockey team matched Thornhill stride for stride and goal for goal in an exhibition game here on Thursday night. Early in the second period however Thornhill moved out front and went on to chalk up a 5-2 victory. It was Stouffville’s first organized contest of the young season. Thornhill’s club is com- posed mainly of players from last years Midget team. They reached the Ontario semi-finals last season. Ted Suzuki and Doug Cooper teamed up for the opening goal of the
contest at 6’30 of the first period. Suzuki tipped the puck into the twine with Cooper picking up an assist. Bunker evened the count for the Yonge Street crew a minute later with an unassisted tally.
Early in the middle frame, Murray Holder teed oft with a golf shot in front of the Thornhill net and the puck slid over the line to put Stouffville momentarily out front again. Gary Stamp, one of Thornhill’s top marksmen, made it 2-2 at 4.45. The remainder of the game was all Thornhill in the scoring department.
Bob Bangay’s boys appeared to tire badly and resorted to brief solo rushes for the remainder of the tilt. Edwin Ortlieb fired what proved to be the winner at the six-minute mark and Bruce McRae salted the game away with a pair of tallies. His first was registered at 7.30 of the second period and a second at 6.05 of the final frames The forward line of Ted Suzuki, Doug Cooper and Earl Thompson looked best for Stouffville. Howard Malcolm showed brief flashes of speed and had the best opportunity to score in the late stages of the game when he broke in alone on the Thornhill. He fired a shot point blank into
the goalie’s. Coach Bob Bangay jockeyed his lines around in the third period in a effort to locate his most potent goal-scoring threesome. Both netminders. Ron Mortimer and Don Brillinger were inserted into the contest. Sixteen players were dressed for the tilt. A total of eleven penalties were handed out by the two officials, four to Stouffville and seven to Thornhill. lGem Byer worked the game for

The annual meeting of the Stouffville Ladies Lawn Bowling Association was held at the home of Miss Gertrude Todd on Thursday evening, Nov.14th. The treasurers report indicated that the past year had been very successful. Members of this year’s executive were returned to office for another year.
President Mrs. Birkett; 1st vice Mrs. Wallace; 2nd vice Mrs. Johnston; Secretary Mrs. Lemon; Treasurer Miss Todd. After the close of the business session, lunch was served by the hostess. Jim Rennie, Stouffville-Unionville defenceman, has decided to hang ‘em up. according to latest reports. Jim who has still two seasons of junior hockey to go before he reaches the overage limit but apparently, he feels the injury risk is too great. Norm Hendricks, one of the brightest minor league prospects Stouffville has produced in a number of seasons, will not don the blades this season according to us. It goes without saying that his services will be sorely missed. FARTHING STARS IN REDWING NET
Detroit goaltender, Billy Farthing was peppered with pucks from every side and angle on Thursday afternoon of last week in a Peewee League game. Although he allowed the Black Hawks to push eight goals past him, his work between the pipes was the best display of netminding so far this season. The final score was Hawks 8, Red Wings 1. The eight Chicago goals were divided among six players. Mike Vizely and Ted Redshaw were the top marksmen for the winners, each potting a pair of tallies. Single goals came from the sticks of Arthur Maxwell, David Lackey, Tm Benson and Keith Betz. The Hawks front line threesome of Arlan Galbraith, Ted Redshaw and Keith Betz, currently the leagues top scoring trio, will be broken up this week. Keith Betz will be shifted to another team for Thursday’s game. Tom
Benson will be moved up from defence to the forward line. The Hawk victory gave them sole possession of first place in the group. They have yet to suffer a loss. The Red Wings have suffered only one setback. Paul Lintner fired the lone wing tally, the first goal of the game. BRUINS 2, RANGERS 1
It was a battle of the cellar-dwellers in the opening game of the doubleheader, the Bruins edged the Rangers 2-1. Unassisted goals by Murray Fenwick and Donald Smith proved to be enough for the Boston
win. Jim Mehaffey notched the lone Ranger tally.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas LET’S ENFORCE IT
We noted with interest one of the rules written into the regulations of the North York Minor Hockey League under Governor, Mr. Geo Haskett of Newmarket. It reads: Players will be suspended for rough play, fighting and bad language. Whether this is a new rule in minor hockey, I’m not sure, but if it is
I’m for it. If it has been a rule in previous years, then i would say that it should be more strictly enforced. We must admit that it may be difficult to enforce such a ruling when it comes to the terminology of rough play but it certainly doesn’t take any modern-day Einstein to rule on fighting or bad language. A one- or two game suspension for such occurrences, especially at playoff time, would rapidly break the offenders of such habits. TO LEARN OR TO TEACH
Did the Russian hockey team come to Canada to learn to to teach although? I was not one of the privileged 14,000 persons in attendance at the Gardens on Friday night. It was plainly visible on my TV set that our professional clubs might take a few pointers from our Moscow visitors. As far as I’m concerned, the European rules adopted by both the Russian team and the Whitby club for the much-publicized exhibition tilt, are in many respects the right rules. The absence of mid-ice boarding, slashing and high-sticking was quite noticeable. This was a sharp contrast to the rough and rugged schmozzles that occur in many of our pro games. The sportsmanlike conduct of the Russian club both before and after the contest, left many critics open mouthed and red-faced. I do not intend to take anything away from the Whitby team. They put up an equally fine performance and will be excellent representatives
for Canada at Oslo next spring.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………… NEWMARKET WHIPS BANTAMS 9-2
Newmarket’s Bantam hockey team came to town on Thursday evening of last week and whipped our home brew entry by a score of 9-2. It was the first game of an exhibition series for the local squad.
Stouffville’s agile netminder, Glenn Jackson was sidelined for the contest due to an injury. Marvin Betz turned in a fine job as a relief puckstopper. Coach Hal Gibson said the loss by no means be attributed to his performance. Coaches Gibson and Sutherland used each of their 21 players during the game. A number will be cut from the roster next week. Roger Forsyth and Allan Lackey were the two Stouffville marksmen. Warren Hendricks centred a first-string trio with Jim Knox and Allan Lackey on the wings. A second threesome comprised Brian Wilkes, Barry McLean and Roger Forsyth. Allan Lackey, Wayne Hamilton and Garry Brown worked on a third line. MIDGETS TROUNCED BY AURORA 9-1
Nick Bangay’s Midget club made a rather unceremonious debut in the opening game of the North York League schedule on Monday night when they dropped a one-sided 9-1 decision to Aurora. The local squad was unable to get untracked throughout the contest and the visitors took advantage of their disunity to pile up a convincing lead. Only in the final minutes of the third period did the trio of Lynn McMullen, Larry McMullen and Grant Foreman break through to blink the light. Lynn McMullen hit the twine on a three-way passing effort. CANADIENS VAULT INTO 1ST PLACE TOE LED BY HAYLOW
Francis Haylow, one of the top marksmen in the Lions Peewee League last season, is starting to climb up the goalscoring ladder in the Peewee (Bantam) group this winter. For the second straight week, the agile dipsy-doodle puck-juggler has potted a pair of goals as the Canadiens have counted a win and a tie. On Monday evening they upset the strong Pittsburg club 4-3 to vault into a first place deadlock with the Hornets. Haylow blinked the light on two occasions. Both tallies were un assisted. Billy Payne and Brian Madill were the other marksmen for the winners. The first string trio of Ross Brown, Jim Harper and Jim Hill paced the Pittsburg attack and figured in all the scoring. Ross Brown notched two and jJm Hill fired one. Jim Harper picked up one assist. Leafs 8, Buffalo 0 Bill Corner was red hot on Monday evening. The front line forward hammered home five goals as his Maple Leafs blanked the winless Buffalo team 8-0. Four of Corner’s tallies were unassisted. His fifth goal came on a pass from Jim Goudie. Kenny Aida clicked for a pair with Billy Yates notching one. Geo. Smith picked up one assist. BENSON SCORES HAT TRICK FOR HAWKS
Hardworking Tom Benson jumped into the lead in the individual goal scoring race in the Lions Peewee League as he scored three goals on Thursday afternoon of last week. The Black Hawks downed the Rangers 7-2. Ted Redshaw picked up an assist on one of Benson’s goals and Arlan Galbraith assisted on another. One tally was unassisted. Barry Hiltz, a new comer to the Black Hawk lineup, potted a pair. Bill
Lehman and Arlan Galbraith notched singles. Jim Mehaffey and Campbell Stewart were the marksmen for the Rangers. The win for the Hawks boosted their league lead to four points over the second place Bruins and Red Wings. Bruins 4, Wings 0 Ed Dawson’s Bruins pulled an upset on Trace Woodward’s Red Wings in the first game of the afternoon as they blanked the Wings 4-0. The victory moved Boston into a second place deadlock with Detroit. Each team has two wins and two losses. The Boston goals were well divided among three players. Murray Fenwick paced the winners attack with a pair. Eric Hamilton and Keith Betz fired singles. It was the Wings second straight loss. Boston have now won two in a row. CONDUCT IN LOCAL ARENA BRINGS SURGE OF COMMENT
Mr. Sports Editor,
Stouffville Tribune,
Stouffville,
Dear Sir;
Through space on your page 1 would like to describe my interpretation of Saturday night Public Skating in the Stouffville Arena. You step into an atmosphere of ‘rock ‘n roll’. While putting on your skates one is subjected to shocking language in the dressing room. After stepping on the ice you take one stroke, and are tripped. Ignoring the jazzy music you try to skate. Half way around, you are confronted by six teenagers standing in the way of others. Circling around two patches of bare cement and zig-zagging between touch-taggers, beginners etc., you finally make one complete circuit. You are now ready to go home. It’s almost impossible to get fifty cents worth of skating. Is Wednesday afternoon children’s day? Should we not have an age limit to keep out a big part of the children. Should we not have discipline? Do we want skating or dancing in our local arena? Will we make it a place of clean recreation or just a teenage hangout.
A Fed-Up Skater
Manager and Board of Directors
of the Stouffville Arena.
Gentlemen
I hope you read the articles which appeared in last week’s Tribune, regarding the situation which has developed in the Arena, for which you are responsible. Perhaps this sounds like very forceful language;
however, you are the men in authority and in the position to bring bout a desired change in the running of this public place. Perhaps i have been misled, but as far as I ever knew, tagging, snowballing, shoving and general brawl were never intended to take place on any ice surface. It not only is dangerous to the gangs doing so, but to the normal, civilized people who come to the arena to attempt to enjoy an evening of skating with their friends. As for this music. I understand that it is chosen to please the
modern young people. Being a young person myself, I can well understand your choice would
this jive music can only be appreciated by a few on a dance floor. The composers of such music will admit that it never was written or intended for the skating arena. I am sure that “Strauss” would be as
frustrated as we are at attempting to skate to such rhythm. In conclusion, it seems to me that you have one of two choices to make. You could continue in your present route, catering to a few rowdy individuals who are turning your arena into a public brawling place. This no doubt is the easier choice, for it requires no thought no effort, no work and it will continue to grow. The second choice, however, is for you to accept and understand the feelings and advice of the public in this matter, realizing that the reputation of our town and arena is at stake. If you take immediate action to get rid of these disturbing teenagers, as is done in surrounding arenas and obtain music intended for skating, I feel sure that you will gain the respect and admiration of both old and young in this town. Furthermore, I venture to say that your crowds will increase and once again everyone will feel it profitable to spend an
evening of pleasure skating in the Stouffville Arena.
Yours respectfully,
A Skating Enthusiast
Stouffville, Nov. 26 Manager & Board of Directors of
Stouffville Arena.
Gentlemen,
I would like to add a few comments to those that have already been made regarding the condition in Stouffville Arena on public skating nights. I visited your arena several times last year and after seeing no
improvement decided that it would only be a wasted evening to return. This seems to be the feeling of many who have attended in the past and who now have found better skating in other arenas. i hope that you will see fit to bring about an immediate change in the conduct of some of the skaters and the type of music you have been using.
Yours respectfully
A Pleasure Skater MUST CALL A HALT
Following this week’s issue, letters describing conditions in the local arena will not be accepted. Instead, readers wishing to comment on the subject are encouraged to pass their articles along to the rink
manager or directors. LADIES‘ BOWLING

RANGERS WIN
Lorne Boadway’s Rangers, cellar dwellers in the Lions Peewee League since the start of the schedule, bounced to within two points of 2nd place Boston and Detroit when they upset the Red Wings by a score of 5-3 on Thursday afternoon of last week. Campbell Stewart was the spark plug for the winners with a fine two goal performance. David Jackson also notched a pair. Bruce Mehaffey scored one. Ronnie Castle was top marks man for the Wings. He fired two goals and picked up one assist. Larry Plaskitt counted a single. All five Ranger tallies were unassisted. Hawks 6, Bruins 1 Bill Lehman, a goaltender turned forward paced the Hawks to their fifth straight victory on Thursday. The second line centre blinked the light for two goals and picked up one assist. Ted Redshaw, centre star of the first line also netted a pair. Billy Goudie and Arlan Galbraith notched singles. Donald Smith and Keith Betz were Boston’s best. Although he failed to score, Keith Betz turned in a fine effort on both the first and second
lines. Don Smith fired the lone Bruin goal. CLIPPERS DRUB LEFROY 11-3 IN HOME OPENER, GIBSON FIRES FOUR
The Clippers made their home debut before close to 200 fans on Friday night when they entertained Lefroy in the first game of the OHA Intermediate ‘B’ group schedule. Stouffville was a rather unpopular
host however, as they trounced the visitors by a one-sided score of 11-3. The Clippers jumped into a 3-1 lead in the first period and never looked back. They out-scored the opposition 4-1 in the second frame
and added an additional four tallies in the final stanza. Elmo Gibson, the ex-Brooklin speedster paced the homesters with a three goal hat trick performance. He fired single goals in the first and and second periods and added a [air in the final frame. Harold Hodgson and Grant Edwards potted a pair with lone goals coming from the sticks of Bud Lehman, Howard Bullock and Bob McIntyre. Lefroy, a new entry in the group counted single goals in each period. Atkinson, Stoddart and Hastings were the marksmen. Elmo Gibson opened the scoring for the winners on a pass from Bruce McDowell. Bud Lehman made it 2-0 with Phil Nicholas and Grant Edwards assisting. Atkinson broke the ice for Lefroy before Edwards notched Stouffville’s third goal from Howard Bullock. The second frame saw Harold Hodgson bang home a pair. Edwards and Gibson blinked the light while Lefroy could hit the target on only one occasion. In the last period, Elmo Gibson netted his third and fourth goals. Howard Bullock and Bob McIntyre fired singles . Nick bangay acted as linesman for the contest. LOCAL MIDGETS BLANKED
A powerful Aurora team steamrollered over our local Midget club on Thursday night to chalk up a one-sided 11-0 victory. Ron Mortimer in the Stouffville cage was the busiest man on the ice as he was pelted
with pucks from every side and angle. Subbing for the absent Roger Beazley, the local cage guardian held the attackers at bay until 5.35 of the first period, when the Yonge Street squad drew first blood.
They led 2-0 at the end of the frame. Three unanswered tallies in the second made it 5-0. Aurora counted an additional six goals in the final frame. Aurora’s Paul Hughes netted the first tally on a long shot through a maze of sticks, skates and legs that Mortimer failed to see. Stouffville failed to get a shot on the Aurora net until the eight minute mark when Norm Dennis of Aurora was banished with a two minute penalty. Dol in the homeseter’s cage handled only a half-dozen shots during the entire contest.
At 14.10 Leon DeCaire made it 2-0 for the winners. Late in the first period Keith Scott of Aurora was penalized. His time carried over into the second frame. Stouffville’s first line of Lynn and Larry
McMullen and Grant Foreman pressed their attack and although they came close, they failed to blink the light. Lynn McMullen had the best chance when he broke through the Aurora defence but his low shot was easily handled by Dol. Ted Murrell, Keith Scott and Ken Taylor scored in that order for Aurora. Scott’s tally came with Stouffville playing a man short. Al Jackson was serving a penalty for elbowing. The third period play was just a matter of how many for the onrushing homesters. In less than five minutes they had added four goals from the sticks of Ken Taylor (2), John Lewis and Norm Dennis. At 13.05 Leon DeCaire made it 10-0 and Ron Walker completed the rout with the final goal of the game. The Macmillan brothers and Grant Foreman were Stouffville’s best. Bob Hall, Roger Stover and Allan Boyd showed brief flashes of speed but had little chance against Auroras stone wall rearguard. Norm Dennis, Ken Taylor and Leon DeCaire were Aurora’s best. There were nine penalties in the game, six to Aurora and three to Stouffville. Glen Byer, one of the two officials, ruled with an iron
hand and kept the contest under control. MIDGETS WHIP WOODBRIDGE 11-2, L. MACMILLAN NETS 4
Coach Nick Bangay lowered the boom on his Midget team on Monday evening and the home town lads came up with a pleasing performance. After dropping a pair to Aurora by one-sided scores, the locals pulled up their socks and racked up an 11-2 victory over Woodbridge. Woodbridge have been placed in ‘C’ class with Stouffville while Aurora is a ‘B’ entry. Coach Bangay jostled his forward lines around in an effort to organize more potent goal-scoring combinations. Ron Stewart centred Lynn McMullen and Ross Pattenden while Grant Foreman worked between Larry McMullen and Al Jackson. Goodwood’s Bob Hall was a pivot performer between Allan Boyd and Wayne Pennanen. Roger Stover, Bill Ratcliff,
Harland Mills and Roger Todd played on defence. Joe Herold was used on both the forward line and rearguard. Harland Mills turned in a fine performance on the Stouffville defence. Lynn McMullen paced the Stouffville attack with 4 goals and one assist. Brother Larry potted a pair. Single tallies came from the sticks of Bob Hall, Allan Boyd, Bill Ratcliff, Ron Stewart and Roger Stover. Roy Allison and Frank Ball were the Woodbridge marksmen Defenceman Bill Ratcliff started Stouffville on the victory trail with
an unassisted tally at 5.15 of the first period. Larry McMullen made it 2.0 at the nineteen minute mark. Woodbridge notched their 1st goal at 6.30 of the second frame, but Roger Stover roared right back
with a tally three minutes later to give the homesters a 3-1 advantage. Frank Ball’s goal at 10.05 cut Stouffville’s lead down to one goal. From that point on it was all Stouffville in the goal scoring department. Larry McMullen, Ron Stewart and Lynn McMullen blinked the light in that order. Stouffville led at the end of the middle frame.In the third period, Lynn McMullen whipped three pucks into the Woodbridge cage to sew up the contest for the local squad. Tallies by Bob Hall and Allan Boyd ended the rout. Ross Pattenden picked up a pair of assists. Ron Stewart was also in on two goals. There were 8 penalties in the game, 4 to each team. ROSS BROWN SETS PACE FOR PEEWEES
Ross Brown, Pittsburg’s agile centre star, continues to set a torrid goal scoring pace in the Peewee Bantam League. On Monday evening the Hornet trio of Jim Hill, Jim Harper and Ross Brown combined to lead Pittsburg to a 3-1 win over the Leafs. Ross Brown potted a pair of tallies and picked up one assist. Jim Hill netted one and assisted on one. Jim Harper collected one assist. Bill Corner blinked the light for the lone Leaf tally. Canadiens 4, Buffalo 0 Buffalo continues to occupy the cellar. To date they have been unable to chalk up a victory. In the first game on Monday night, Canadiens blanked Buffalo
4-0. Walter Winn sparked the winners attack with two goals. Francis Haylow scored one tally and picked up an assist. Brian Madill notched one. PEEWEE PLAYER INJURED
Allan Meabry, a player with the Canadiens in the Lions Peewee Bantam League, suffered three broken teeth in an accident at the arena on Monday evening. The lad was struck in the mouth with a hockey stick. Dentist Dr. Neil Smith worked for more than an hour on the boy in an effort to quell the pain. It is only the second such accident in the history of the league. LADIES BOWLING LEAGUE

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas TOO ROUGH
Something must be done and done fast to take the roughness out of our minor hockey. Whether the responsibility lies with league officials, referee or coaches I’m not prepared to say but I believe that ail
three could do much to “clean up” the game. Coaches can reach the source of the problem right in the dressing room when they issue their pre-game instructions to the players. Referees can keep a check on
such tactics by filling the penalty box and ruling with an iron hand. League officials can impose stiff fines or suspensions which might act as a deterrent for similar actions in future games. On friday night of last week I attended a scheduled contest between the Unionville and Stouffville Juveniles. Although the two clubs displayed flashes of good hockey the contest was punctuated with charging, high sticking and boarding. Thirteen penalties were banded out but that number could easily have been doubled. I do not intend to take anything away from the Unionville teams one-sided victory. They were certainly the better club and deserved their win. I would say however that if boys would abandon their “dog eat dog” attitude and play the game as it should be played then it would have been a much improved show. Any player boasting all brawn and no brains could inflict serious injury on an opponent. If they desire to show blocking prowess lei them do it in the centre of the ice where the attacking player has at least 50 per cent chance of outsmarting his check. Against the boards or in the corner he is a helpless target with little opportunity of protecting himself. i have heard fans criticize officials for ruining the game by being too strict. It’s not the officials who are ruining the game, its the players or in some cases the coaches who are to blame. Some players on both the Stouffville and Unionville teams questioned penalty called by the referees after they had committed noticeable breaches of rules. Fans biased toward either the home team or the visiting club immediately directed their abuse on the referees.
That’s pretty well the story as I saw it on Friday. Although two players were injured, both will be back in action in a weeks time. It could have and will be worse unless such rough tactics are halted immediately. If not someone will be injured seriously. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. REF QUITS; GAME STOPS JUVENILES AT BRADFORD
On Monday night it happened in a scheduled Juvenile game between Stouffville and Bradford, the referee disgusted with the roughness of the game and the abuse from the Bradford bench suddenly discarded his whistle and halted the contest. Stouffville were the winners by a score of 5-1. From rom the drop of the puck it was a knock’ em down, drag ‘em out affair. Conditions worsened as the game progressed when on Monday night it happened in a scheduled Juvenile game between Stouffville and
Bradford the referee disgusted with the roughness of the game and the abuse from the Bradford bench suddenly discarded his whistle and halted the contest. Stouffville were the winners by a score of 5-1.
From the drop of the puck it was a knock ’em down, drag ‘em out affair. Conditions worsened as the game progressed. When Stouffville built up a substantial 5-1 lead in the final frame, the lid blew off the pot. The Bradford official, a target for abuse, skated to the player’s box and informed the Bradford coach that he was finished. The game was immediately stopped and awarded to Stouffville. The rough tactics took its toll of Stouffville manpower. Ron Hedges required five stitches to close a gash behind his ear. Rick Wedseltoft was knocked out and Larry Malloy was cut on the mouth. Other players received numerous bumps and bruises. It marked the first meeting between the two teams this season. In the goal-scoring department Murray Holden paced the winners attack with a hat trick performance. Earl Thompson and Dean Evans each counted singles. The addition of ex-Brooklinite’s Lorne Disney and
netminder Bill Asling to the Stouffville lineup bolstered the local teams defensive strength. Ron Jones was also acquired recently from Brooklin. Due to the added imports Stouffville is automatically boosted up into ‘B’ class series. Unionville Jets will be the visitors on Stouffville ice on Thursday night at 8.45 pm.
December 12 1957 (con’t) MIDGETS WHIP UNIONVILLE 8-2 IN FAST GAME
Displaying their best form to date Stouffville’s agile midget club outclassed their Unionville visitors on monday night to rack up a one-sided 8-2 victory. Larry McMullen replaced brother Lynn in the goal-scoring limelight in Monday’s tilt. Performing on a line with Grant Foreman and Al Jackson, the leftwinger fired a three goal hat trick. Ron Stewart duplicated team mate McMullens efforts. He also
netted three tallies. Lynn McMullen and Roger Stover potted singles. John Saunders, Unionville’s best notched both tallies for the visitors. Stouffville out-hustled their rivals from the drop of the puck. They
held a 2-0 lead at the end of the first period. They matched the opposition goal for goal in the second session. In the final frame Stouffville opened up with their heavy artillery. In less than seven minutes they blasted five pucks behind Unionville netminder Clarence DeGeer.
Roger Stover and Harland Mills turned in excellent work on the Stouffville defence and gave goalie Roger Beazley fine protection. The Stouffville netminder was not overworked. He pulled one outstanding stop when Unionville’s John Saunders broke free from centre ice and skated in alone on the
Stouffville cage. Beazley went down low to smother his drive. At the other end of the rink, Clarence DeGeer had a busy night. The overworked goal guardian ducked and dived in every period in an effort to hold the Stouffville attackers off the score sheet. Geo. Carey of Unionville and Grant Wagg of Stouffville officiated. The McMullen brothers started Stouffville on the victory trail in the first period with unassisted tallies. Ron Stewart made it 3-0. John Saunders combined with Dick Skelton for the visitor’s first goal at 9.29. Stouffville look command in the final frame and never were headed. A long screen shot by Roger Stover dented the twine at 1.30 and Larry McMullen teamed up with Grant Foreman for Stouffville’s fifth goal at 2.30. Ron Stewart made it 6-1 with a twenty foot backhand shot and thirty seconds later he caromed a shot off DeGeer’s skate for his third tally of the game. Unionville playing a man short, Larry McMullen completed his hat trick performance at 6.45. In the dying minutes of the contest John Saunders teed off with a golf shot. Beazley fanned on the drive and the puck slid over the line for Unionville’s second and final goal. Unionville headed the penalty parade with five. Stouffville had three. Bill Johnston, Unionville’s hard-hitting rearguard spent a total of six minutes in the cooler. Barry Gaston and Dick Skelton served minors. Joe Herold had two of Stouffville’s three penalties. Lynn McMullen had one. HAWKS HUMBLE WINGS, SCORE 11-1
The Black Hawks chalked up their sixth straight victory on Thursday afternoon of last week as they trounced the Red Wings 11-1. The win extended Chicago’s lead atop the Peewee League to six points. The Bruins hold down the second place position with the Wings and Rangers following in that that order. Ted Redshaw and Tom Benson paced the Hawk attack each fired three goals. Arlan Galbraith and Barry Hiltz each potted a pair. David Lackey notched one. Ronnie Castle scored the lone Detroit goal. Bruins 2, Rangers 1 Ed Dawson’s Bruins moved into sole possession of second place with a
2-1 win over the Rangers. Keith Betz recently acquired from the Hawks, scored one goal and Murray Kenwick notched the other. Jim Mehaffey potted the lone Ranger tally. UNIONVILLE TRIMS JUVENILES IN ROUGH GAME
A completely confused and demoralized Stouffville Juvenile team suffered a resounding 11-2 defeat at the hands of the Unionville Jets on Friday night in a scheduled North York League encounter.
Stouffville were out classed in every department and only some inaccurate shooting by Unionville forwards kept the score below the one dozen figure. The contest was unnecessarily rough in spite of
efforts by the officials to keep such tactics under control here. Unionville also headed the class drawing 9 of the thirteen penalties. Howard Malcolm, Stouffville’s utility defenceman and forward was hit hard into the boards in the third period and injured his leg. He was assisted from the ice and didn’t return In the dying minutes of the final frame Rick Wedseltoft was clipped in the mouth by Jerry McGreggor’s stick and out for stitches. He followed team mate Malcolm to the dressing room for repairs. The Jets jumped into a 3-1 lead in the first period and coasted to their one-sided win. They added four unanswered tallies in the second frame and out-scored the visitors 4-1 in the third. Carl Keffer, Cashel’s contribution to the Unionville club fired a three goal hat trick for the winners. Bruce Holdsworth, Dick
Underwood and John Pettit each potted a pair. Ron Graham and Al Tidsbury netted singles. Ron Jones, Stouffville’s best, scored one goal and picked up one assist. Ernie Abraham picked up Jones’ rebound
to blink the light at 18.56 of the third period. Ron Mortimer guarded the Stouffville net. Stouffville appeared disorganized when inside their own blueline time and time again when attempting lo clear they passed the puck on to the sticks of the Unionville forwards, allowing them to take point-blank
shote on the Stouffville net. The visitors lacked Unionville’s team-play effort. Stouffville’s attack was confined mainly to individual efforts that in the majority of cases petered out at the Unionville defence. The Jet netminder was not overworked. Howard Malcolm, Ron Jones and Ted Suzuki were Stouffville’s best. CLIPPERS CRUSH DEHAVILAND 22-2
The Stouffville Clippers had plenty of target practice on Tuesday night at Aurora when crushed Dehaviland 22-2 in one-sided contest. The second third periods were completed on straight time after Stouffville had built up an overwhelming lead in the first frame. Four players fired hat tricks. Three goals came from the sticks of Jim Cruikshank, Wilmot Gates, Pete Lacey and Ted Vanderpol. Dehaviland were able to ice only nine men. The game will be played here Friday night. On Friday night of last week Stouffville and Beeton battled a 9-9 draw. Bruce Middleton the nets for the Clippers. HIGH SCHOOL JRS. BEAT HILL 31-20
Stouffville High Schools Junior basketball team defeated Richmond Hill Midgets 31-20 in an exhibition game last week. Gord Burkholder paced the local teams win with 8 points. John Corner and Ken Patrick each counted six. The winners scored at the rate of one point per minute. Holding an edge in height Stouffville played good position ball and had little trouble with their smaller opponents. A return tilt will be staged early in January. An exhibition contest has also been arranged with Aurora. Following the Christmas Holiday period, both the Junior and the Senior basketball teams will enter regular schedule play. They will test their strength against opposition from Pickering College in their opening games. HAYLOW FIRES FIVE FOR THE CANADIENS
After a rather slow start, Francis Haylow’s goal scoring pace with the Canadiens is increasing with every game. One of the top marksmen in the Pee- Wee group last season, the dipsy-doodle forward is now one of the leading scorers in the Pee- Wee (Bantam) League. On Monday evening due to Haylow’s five goal spree, the Canadiens downed the Leafs 7-4. Brian Madill fired one goal and picked up two assists. Billy Payne notched the other tally on a pass from David Winn. Kenny Aida blinked the light for a pair of goals for the Leafs. Jimmy Goudie and Bill Corner potted singles. Hornets 4, Buffalo 1 Remove Ross Brown from the Pittsburg team and Buffalo might have chalked up their initial victory of the season. On Monday night, the speedy front line star scored four times to give his hornets a 4-1 win. Larry Taylor counted the lone Buffalo goal. Delwin Chase picked up an assist on the tally. Jim Hill, Jim Harper and Willis collected assists on Brown’s four goal effort.
. MONTGOMERY PACES BASKETBALL SRS. IN GAME HERE
In spite of rather strong opposition from a Toronto ‘A’ team, the Stouffville High School Senior boys’ basketball team turned in a fine performance against a visiting Earl Haig club in an exhibition game
last week. It was a nip and tuck battle until the final quarter when the visitors salted the contest away with a 35 point rally. Both teams were deadlocked at half time. Earl Haig held a three point edge at the end of the third quarter. Chick Montgomery paced the home club racking up a 22 point total. Ron
Thomson collected 10, Norm Hendricks 6, Bob Stover 5, Tom McCreighr 4 and Steve Kennedy 3. Lawrence Wideman and Ron Brillinger, although held pointless, played well. The local team is coached by Mr. Langdale, Messrs. Keith Sutherland and J. R. Hammond.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas A WELCOME RELIEF
The wave of boarding, high sticking and charging which which has featured our Juvenile hockey games both a home and away came to a sudden halt on Thursday night. For a fee of $7.00, an efficient
official was obtained from 0shawa by the local management in an effort to quell the unnecessary rough play. Rob’t Sirocco, an unknown in my book, was assigned the task. He turned in an excellent job and was well worth the remuneration he received. From the drop of the puck, he had the game in hand around the net or in the corners. He immediately stopped the play whenever the puck disappeared from his view. He clamped down on players who committed even minor offences. He thumbed the offenders to the penalty box either singly or pairs. The monotony of watching the game from the sidelines appeared to have an effect on the players and fans viewed one the better contests here this season. Not a single player suffered an injury, a far different story than has been told in previous games.
The visiting referee called the game by the book. A stranger to the players, he watched every play with a keen eye and earned respect of both the participants and the fans. Such a person was certainly a
welcomed relief when compared to the rowdyism we have witnessed on previous occasions. BAD FOR LOCAL HOCKEY
A postponement or cancellation is never good for any pre-arranged performance but when such an occasion does arise it is only fair to those concerned that the notification be presented well in advance.
On Friday night DeHaviland, an entry in the local Intermediate group, was scheduled to meet the Clippers here. At approximately two o’clock on Friday afternoon they telephoned the management to explain that they would be unable to ice a team. I wonder what they expected us to do about it at that late date. In a desperate attempt to acquire a replacement, Mgr. Harry Lee phoned almost every town and village in central Ontario in a last-minute effort to arrange an exhibition game. None could comply. He then bad to notify every player on the Clipper roster to inform them of the cancellation. With players residing all the way from Highland Creek to Aurora, one can estimate the expense involved. Fans are the life blood of any hockey team. For every two spectators inconvenienced perhaps one may never return. You can imagine how they felt when they arrived at the rink to discover, to their disgust, that the contest had been called off. I personally rushed out from Toronto to see the game. Although I will return again ,maybe others will not. These clubs, which make last-minute entries into OHA Leagues, should be carefully investigated. DeHaviland lacked a home arena and adequate player strength. One can imagine how much support they would receive in Aurora when even the hometown club- find it difficult to operate out of the red. Stouffville was opposed to the entry.
Apparently others weren’t. Stouffville has been forced to pay for someone else’s mistake. The management intends to make the Dehaviland club share some portion of the expense and rightly so. You can’t get blood out of a stone however, so our chances don’t look too good. The cost of such a default cant be measured entirely in dollars and cents. The inconvenience caused to the players, management and fans may never be known.

Prior to a recent Juvenile same here between Unionville and Stouffville, the official Rob’t Simcoe of Oshawa paid a visit to both dressing rooms and addressed the players. According to report the
referee received a rather cool reception from the Unionville coach, Morris Procenko. Not being present in either dressing room before the contest I cannot relate the text of the official’s conversation but i presume it followed the usual course as in other OMHA games. A visit by the referee to the dressing room prior to any Bantam, Midget or Juvenile contest is certainly cot unusual. According to
OMHA rules the ref. is required to visit each room before the game to see that the card is properly signed by each player. Although it is not always done coaches who have handled OMHA entries for any length of time expect such pre-game calls by the official. Referee Simcoe didn’t take too kindly to Coach Procenko attitude and the incident was reported to the OMHA president. Coaches, managers and players should realize that the referee is the boas. He is the supreme authority at every game and his word carries considerable weight Much of the trouble locally lies in the fact that too many unqualified lads have been pressed into service and have been unable to cope with the situation. The management and players lose respect for their authority and the official becomes merely a whistle-tooter on skates. AN EYE-OPENER
Anyone who may have watched our local Clippers in action for the first time on Friday, night no doubt was amazed at their ability. In spite of the absence of two or three key players, the local Intermediates
turned in a pleasing performance. Fans in attendance were loud in their praise of the crisscross passing plays completed by the homesters and, although the score reached rather one-sided proportions. they never stopped skating. The contest was cleanly played throughout and the officials Loring Doolittle and Bruce Harper had little trouble in handling the game. I believe that Stouffville is in line for a group championship this season. Although it is rumoured that both Milton and Bradford have powerful clubs, it will certainly take an above-average squad to handle our Clipper entry. They have the size, speed and hockey brains. Whether they possess a natural ability or whether coach Jack Watson has instilled some of his hockey knowhow into the organization, I do not know. I do know, however that they play the kind of hockey that fans want to watch. The Aurora foursome of Grant Edwards, Ted Vanderpol, Howard Bullock and Phil Nichols are classy performers. Add a sprinkling of good local talent in Harold Hodgson, Bud Lehman and Russ Forfar plus the best from Pickering in Jim Cruikshank, Pete Lacey and Wilmot Gates and the nucleus of a group champion is formed. Although I do not believe that Stouffville’s netminders are replicas of former Clipper goal-guardians such as Norm Stunden or Dusty Rhodes, I think they will b- able to hold their own if given the necessary protection. Friday night’s game was the second home encounter of the young season. Aside from an occasional practice, this marked the first time i have watched them in action to date. Truthfully speaking I was more than a little surprised. The players seemed to know what they were doing. It was not an individual effort but strictly an all-team performance. The Clipper management has made a definite bid this season to organize a real Intermediate hockey contender. Friday’s game has sold me on the team’s excellent championship possibilities. Now I feel that I must try to sell the team to you — the hockey public. You can’t see them
on TV or in this newspaper. You must come to the arena and watch them in action. It’s well worth the 50c admission fee.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. CLIPPERS TROUNCE BEETON CLUB 8-2
The Clippers are a classy Intermediate hockey club. They proved this on Friday night when they whipped Beeton 8-2 with a thrilling wide-open performance. Stouffville completely outplayed the visitors in every period. They led 2-0 at the end of the first and 5-0 at the end of the second. They out-scored their rivals 3-2 in the final frame. Ex-Aurora star, Phil Nicholas paced the Stouffville attack with four goals. He counted a pair in the first, one in the second and another in the third. Harold Hodgson notched two with singles coming from the sticks of Grant Edwards and Ted Vanderpol.
Aurora players took part in seven of the eight Clipper tallies. Every stouffville goal was a neatly executed play. The homesters were minus three regular players and forward Howard Bullock was sidelined
in the second period with an injury. In spite of their manpower shortage, Jack Watson’s squad raced up and down the ice at a torrid pace and the result was never in doubt. Kearns in the Beeton cage was
kept busy in every period. Geo. Wilkins in the Clipper net was not overworked,
although he came up with a number of fine saves. Phil Nicholas put Stouffville out front in the first period on passes from Jim Cruikshank and Howard Forgie. Nicholas made it 2-0 four minutes later with Cap’t Harold Hodgson picking up an assist. At 3.25 of the second period, Harold Hodgson blinked the light and at 7.30 with Beeton a man short, the Clipper Captain netted his second tally on a Stouffville power play. Pete Lacey was credited with an assist. Midway through the second period Nicholas
completed a hat trick performance notching his third goal of the game.Harold Hodgson set the speedy forward up for the tally, as he cut in on the Beeton cage, the puck slipped off his stick and rolled over the goal line. Stouffville netminder George Wilkins was at his best when forward Jake Harman was banished with a two minute minor penalty. Beeton made a number of determined efforts to score but each time Wilkins held the fort. On one occasion he blocked two shots in a row as a Beeton forward broke in on top of him. Aurora’s Ted Vanderpol counted one of the nicest goals of the game in the final frame. At 5.24 team mate Grant Edward blazed a shot off the Beeton netminder’s pads. Vanderpol picked up the rebound and fired it into the top corner of the cage. Bruce McDowell had a fine chance to
extend the Stouffville lead when Harold Hodgson put him in the clear. His drive was blocked by the Beeton goalie. At 12.30 Nicholas completed his 4-goal scoring spree slamming Harold Hodgson’s rebound into the twine. Beeton struck for two fast tallies in the late minutes of the game. Their goals came only ten seconds apart. Seally broke the ice and Doanne, Beeton’s best, made it 7-2 on the next play. At 17.25 Grant Edwards found himself alone in front of the Beeton net and promptly deposited the puck in the corner. There were eleven penalties in the contest, six to Beeton and five to Stouffville. Ted Vanderpol of the Clippers was banished with a minor and a 10 minute misconduct when he argued too strenuously with referee Loring Doolittle. 7-1 WIN FOR JUVENILES OVER CAMP BORDEN
Two former Brooklin players, Ron Jones and Lorne Disney have been teamed up with right- winger Dean Evans to form a potent goalscoring trio with the local Juvenile club. On Thursday night the threesome
collected five goals to pace Bob Bangay’s squad to a 7-1 win over Camp Borden. Defenceman Gord Eckardt potted a pair. Web Tulley, spoiled goalie Bill Asling’s bid for a shutout by blinking the light at 18.14 of the final frame. Weak goaltending was the main difference between the two teams. The
Camp Borden goal guardian looked especially poor on long shots. Both tallies from the stick of defenceman Gord Eckardt were drives from the blueline. The visitors had an edge in the play during the first five minutes of the game. Stouffville had trouble getting the puck out of their own zone and only some fine work by goalie Asling kept the army lads off the score sheet. At 7.15 Dean Evans picked up a pass from Lorne Disney and with only one man back, he drifted a shot into the bottom corner of the cage. The goal seemed to spark the Stouffville attack. A few minutes later, Murray Holden grabbed off a pass from Rick Wedseltoft but his close-in shot was stopped. Ron Jones also had a good chance to score on a wide-open break but the disk slipped off his stick as he closed in on the Camp Borden net.
At the sixteen minute mark of the opening period, Dean Evans whipped Ron Jones goal mouth pass into the Borden cage to give Stouffville a 2-0 advantage. The second period was only four minutes old when
Murray Holden relayed the puck to rearguard Gord Eckardt on the Camp Borden blueline. His shot caromed off a player and bounded into the net. Three minutes later on a similar play, Eckardt rifled a drive into the goal to give the homesters a 4-0 lead. Lorne Disney notched the first of his two goals at 11.05. A low shot from a difficult angle found the target. At 16.10, Ron Jones and lLoren Disney teamed up for Stouffville’s 6th goal. Camp Borden broke the ice with less than two minutes remaining in the period, Tulley beating Asling for the visitors lone goal. The final frame saw only one goal scored. Lorne Disney circled the Camp Borden cage and packed the puck in the corner before the netminder could close the gap. Dean Evans picked up an assist on the play. There were only four penalties in the entire game, two to Stouffville and two to Camp Borden. Bruce Harper was one of the officials. MIDGETS CLIP WOODBRIDGE 5-2
Nick Bangay’s Midget club chalked up another victory on Friday evening of last week as they rolled over Woodbridge to the tune of 5-2. Goalie Roger Beazley held the opposition off the score sheet until the
last period when they netted their lone tally. The Stouffville goals were evenly divided among five separate players. Grant Forman, Bill Ratcliff, Allan Boyd, Lynn McMullen and Roger Stover were the marksmen for the local squad.

For my initial sports Award of the Week selection, MR. DON DAVIS, Chairman of the Lions Club Minor Hockey Association is the unanimous choice. The organization and operation of the local winter sports
program has been a man-size job and in spite of numerous setbacks and disappointments, Mr. Davis continues to be a leader. in this project. To DON DAVIS, we present two admission tickets to the PARK THEATRE, Stouffville, compliments of Messrs. Ted Topping and Harold Spofford. NO OTHER WAY
Although the pre-playoff withdrawal of our Juvenile team from further organized hockey competition may have come as a shock to a few faithful followers, to the majority it was no surprise. There was
really no other way out. Contrary to reports no one was at fault. The local management laid their cards on the table before the OMHA board. All certificates had been properly signed and addressed. Everything was done up and above board. The Ontario Minor Hockey Associations hands were tied. Stouffville netminder, Bill Asling was a resident of Brooklin and ineligible to play here. The management knew this and in a written letter to the minor league officials explained the situation in its entirety. They had faint hopes that the board might grant the club special permission to retain Asling’s services but of course this would be setting a very awkward precedent. As a last resort the management hoped that they might be raised up into ‘B’ class competition, but this too was turned down. The Board explained in no uncertain terms that Asling was the property of the closest Juvenile team and could not be retained as Stouffville property under any circumstances. This left the management with no alternative but to fold. Playing juvenile hockey without a seasoned goaltender is comparable to a baseball team without a pitcher. It isn’t fair to tie up other players, the management or the fans. The risk in hockey is even greater due to the possibilities of injury which might befall an unqualified goal guardian. This factor too was taken into consideration. So the Juvenile team joins the Juniors in the ranks of the deceased. Let’s hope the disease isn’t too contagious.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. BANTAMS EDGE UNIONVILLE 2-1
Two centremen with Stouffville’s Bantam entry scored goals to give the local squad a 2-1 edge over Unionville in an exhibition game on Thursday evening. Jimmy Malloy working between wingers Garry Brown and Wayne Hamilton, fired the first Stouffville tally. Unionville evened the count a few minutes later. Centreman Warren Hendricks notched what proved to be the winner. He was the pivot performer between linemates Allan Lackey and Jim Knox. Glenn Jackson guarded the net for the winners. MIDGETS BATTLE UNIONVILLE 1-1
A late third period goal by leftwinger Allan Boyd allowed Stouffville’s Midget team to split the points with Unionville and gain a 1-1 tie on Tuesday night. Boyd’s tally came on a Stouffville ganging attack that had the opposition bottled up in their own end. Larry McMullen whipped a pass across the goal mouth and Boyd caught the corner from a difficult angle. Grant Foreman had a wide-open opportunity to sew up the contest for Stouffville on the game’s next forward line rush but Unionville netminder Clarence DeGeer moved out of his cage and pulled off a fine stop. Ken Beckett fired the lone goal for the homesters. The tally came at 6:25 of the second period. Unionville were playing with a man short
at the time. Beckett’s long shot caromed off Ron Stewart’s stick and slid into the corner. Bantam goaltender, Glenn Jackson was called up to replace Roger Beazley in the Stouffville cage. The local glove artist turned in an excellent job between the pipes and warded off many dangerous Unionville shots. DeGeer was equally good in the Unionville net. There were two outbreaks of fisticuffs in the sixty minute contest. Allan Boyd of Stouffville and Kurt Burzvilkes were thumbed to the box with minor
penalties for a mid-ice wrestling bout. Late in the second period, Roger Stover of Stouffville and Joe Dukes of Unionville paired off but nothing serious developed. Both were banished with five minute
majors. Bob Ward and Glenn Pennanen officiated. GETS HAT TRICK FOR BRUINS
Two weeks ago, Donald Smith of the Bruins fired three goals for his team as they romped to a 5-2 win over the Red Wings. Last Thursday afternoon linemate Keith Betz moved 6into the goal-scoring spotlight
and duplicated Smith’s effort with a fine hat trick performance. Centering a first-line trio the speedy forward scored all his goals on clean-cut breakaways. In spite of this. the first place Black Hawks
outscored Boston 10-6. Donald Smith potted a pair of goals for the Bruins. Murray Fenwick notched one and picked up one assist. Tom Benson, Claremont’s goalscoring specialist had a field day against
the Bruins notching no less than six. His spree raised his season’s total to 24. He is currently deadlocked with linemate Ted Redshaw for the league’s scoring leadership. Redshaw has one extra assist. Ted
Redshaw fired four tallies for the Hawks on Thursday. Bill Lehman picked up one assist. Wings 6 , Rangers 1 Arlan Galbraith moved into the number three position in the goal scoring race as he netted three goals and picked up one assist. He has now collected 19 goals and 6 assists. The wingers hat trick
enabled the Red Wings to chalk up a 6-1 win over the Rangers. Ronnie Castle potted a pair of tallies for the winners. Barry Hilts notched one goal and picked up one assist. Ben Aida also assisted on
one goal. Jim Mehaffey, one of the Ranger’s top performers, scored his team’s only goal. Blair Wagg picked up one assist on the tally. HAYLOW, CORNER POT FOUR GOALS FOR PEEWEES
Bill Comer of the Leafs and Francis Haylow of Canadiens paced their respective teams to victories in Peewee Bantam action on Monday night. Bud Lehman’s Canadiens trounced Buffalo 10-2 while the Leafs downed Pittsburg 4-2. Montreal’s ten tallies were divided between Francis Haylow, Billy
Payne, Brian Madill, David Winn and Bruce Browning. Haylow scored four. Bruce Browning and Billy Payne each potted a pair. Brian Madill and David Winn notched singles. Billy Payne, one of the best two-way players in the group turned in an exceptionally fine effort. In addition to his two goals, he also
picked up a pair of assists. Francis Haylow also assisted on two tallies and Bruce Browning set up one of Billy Payne’s goals. Larry Taylor, one of the spark plugs for the cellar-dwelling Buffalo club potted a pair. Leafs 4, Hornets 2 Bill Corner was a one-man team on Monday night. The high-scoring forward collected all his teams goals as the leafs racked up a 4-2 win over Pittsburg. Kenny Aida picked up one assist. Jim Harper and Ross Brown teamed up for the Hornets tallies. Each scored lone goals and
picked up single assists.

by Jim Thomas AWARD OF THE WEEK
Your writer had little trouble selecting this week’s award-winning sports figure. MR. BUD LEHMAN, left wing forward line star of the Intermediate ‘B’ Clippers, is my choice. Bud’s prolific performance in Friday nights game against Bradford tipped the scales in his favour. Piling up five scoring points with three goals and two assists, the local puck-chaser was the standout player on the ice. Bud has
literally grown up in Stouffville’s sports spotlight. In addition to hockey, he is equally competent at baseball, softball and soccer. This week we are pleaded to present to BUD LEHMAN, two admission
tickets to the PARK THEATRE, Stouffville, compliments of Messrs. Ted Topping and Harold Spofford. DON’T SEND HIM — TAKE HIM
Don’t send — TAKE your boy to the rink. That’s the motto of the forthcoming Minor Hockey Week which will be marked from Jan. 25th to Feb. 1st. This slogan although brief packs more punch than a ten page
periodical on the subject. It hits home at the parents, who, in most cases are interested in their lad’s hockey progress, but never accompany their boy to the rink to see him perform. Mom and Pop, here’s your opportunity to ease your conscience if you’ve been neglecting your hockey protege. This winter — come down to the arena on Thursday night from 6:5 pm to 10 o’clock, Stouffville Peewee Bantam and Midget players will he in action. To conclude Stouffville’s minor hockey promotion, OMHA member, Mr. Jim Austin has arranged the annual hockey church service for Sunday afternoon in the Whitby United Church. Here again, parents may play an important part. They may take their boy to church or if this is
not possible, see that he is provided with transportation in any one of the cars which will be made available here. Last year not a single member of our 11-team minor hockey organization was in attendance. Our town was noticeable by its absence. Don’t let this happen again.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… CLIPPERS VAULT INTO LEAGUE LEAD AS LEHMAN NETS THREE
The Stouffville Clippers, paced by leftwinger Bud Lehman, vaulted into sole possession of first place in the local O.H.A. Intermediate ‘B’ group on Friday night. Exploding with three unanswered goals in the
first and third periods, the local squad humbled Bradford 11-2. Top Spot The homesters one-sided victory was certain proof that they are the worthy holders of the group’s top spot. Showing terrific power, especially in the first and final frames, the Clippers romped through their opposition almost at will. Only in the second period did the visitors manage to connect for goals and one of these came with
Stouffville a man short. Both clubs played rather scrambly hockey in the middle frame. Lehman Best
Bud Lehman turned in his best home performance of the season. The agile winger was an ever-present scoring threat around the Bradford net and equally effective in his own end. Never known to
retreat from the toughest opponent, the agile forward collected his usual share of penalties. In spite of this he used his time on the ice to excellent advantage and collected a total of five scoring points. This total was made up of three goals and two assists. He notched one in the first period and a pair in the second. Line Clicks The trio of Phil Nicholas, Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman snared seven of the teams 11 tallies. Nicholas and Hodgson each potted a pair. The threesome turned in a prolific effort every time out and kept the visitors continually hemmed inside their own blueline. However Bullock netted a pair with singles coming from the sticks of Ted Vanderpol and Howard Forgie. Laurie Thoms and John Maloney counted Bradford’s goals. No Opposition Bradford looked anything like a first place contender. Stouffville held a wide margin in play throughout much of the game. Only on brief occasions did the visitors organize any goal-labelled attacks and most of these fizzled out at the Clipper defence. The “Motormen” looked woefully weak without the services of their star centreman Don “Spider” Gibson. He was injured in a previous Stouffville-Bradford game 3 weeks ago and was not in the lineup. Laurie Thoms was the visitor’s best but even he lacked his usual puck-juggling skill. It wasn’t that Bradford were so poor but that the Clippers were just too good. The local squad held possession of the puck for minutes at a time and the leg-weary “Marshmen” appealed defenceless as they tried in vain to halt the Stouffville hockey machine. SCORE GOALS IN PAIRS IN LOCAL PEEWEE LEAGUE
Goals came in groups of two in the Lions Peewee League on Thursday afternoon. Donald Smith of the Bruins, Jimmy Mehaffey of the Rangers and Arlan Galbraith of the Red Wings each potted a pair for their
respective clubs. As in the Peewee (Bantam) group, Thursday’s contests produced upsets. The first place Black Hawks suffered their initial loss at the hands of Trace Woodward’s fast-stepping Red Wings dropping a 4-1 tilt. Lorne Boadway’s last place Rangers held off Ed Dawson’s Bruins to squeeze out a close 3-2 victory. Coach Dawson pulled his netminder Richard Yakely out of the goal in the dying minutes of the game in favour of a sixth forward, but the move failed to pay off. Jim Mehaffey was a tower of strength for the Rangers. The fast-stepping forward counted two goals, one unassisted and another on a pass from Leonard Blacklock. Campbell Stewart scored one. Donald Smith paced the Bruins attack with a pair. Keith Betz picked up one assist. Red Wings, 4 Hawks 1 Arlan Galbraith currently setting the goalscoring pace in the Peewee League, continued his prolific performance Thursday afternoon as his Red Wings knocked off the first place Black Hawks 4-1. The Wings
looked like a different club as looked as they skated “rings around” the group leaders. Galbraith ran his goalscoring total to 23 as he blinked the light four times. He has now collected a total of 29
points, best in the league. Tom Benson notched the lone tally for the Hawks. The Chicago squad couldn’t get untracked. Ted Redshaw, one of the top marksmen in the group, was watched closely and checked on every move. On a couple of wide-open chances he was either blocked or missed the target.
Standings The standings of the four Peewee clubs are as follows: Hawks – 18 pts.; Bruins — 12 pts.; Red Wings — 12 pts. and Rangers — 6 pts. RICHMOND HILL EDGES MIDGETS 7-6
Richmond Hill Midgets squeezed out a tight 7-6 win over Stouffville on Monday evening here. It was the final game of the North York schedule the OMHA playoffs will commence shortly. Ron Stewart snapped out a current scoring slump to fire goals and pick up a pair of assists. Singles came from the sticks of Wayne Pennanen, Roger Stover, Lynn McMullen and Ross Pattenden. Atkinson was a two-goal marksman for the Yonge Street squad. Stouffville held a lead on numerous occasions but ran out of steam in the final frame. Goals by Richmond Hill’s Atkinson and Anderson in the late minutes of the third period, pulled the contest out of the fire for the visitors. It was 3-1 for Stouffville at the end of the first and 5-5 going into the third. Ron Stewart made it 5 for Stouffville at 2:50 of the last period but richmond hill rallied to post their 7-6 victory. There were only three penalties in the game, one to Stouffville and two to the visitors. A meeting has been called at Newmarket for Sunday noon, at which time the forth coming OMHA playoffs will be arranged. CLIPPERS RALLY TO TRIM BEETIN 5-3
A twogoal rally in the third period allowed Stouffville Clippers to whip Beeton 5-3 in a scheduled Intermediate ‘B’ game on Wednesday night of last week. Although the first and second frames packed
little action, Stouffville opened up in the last period and held a wide margin in the play. The Clippers held a 2-1 edge at the end of the first period but the persistent visitors battled back to square the count at 3-3 in the second. Stouffville salted the game away with two unanswered tallies in the final frame.
The homesters tallies were evenly distributed through the club with five players figuring in the scoring. Harold Hodgson, Phil Nicholas Wilmot Gates, Ron Guy and Grant Edwards were the Clipper
marksmen. Dave Seally potted a pair for Beeton, Don Letts notched one. Stouffville defenceman Ron Guy fired what proved to be the winner at 12:32 of the third period. Phil Nicholas and Bud Lehman picked up assists. Guy’s goal came on a hard shot from the blueline. Each club was playing with a man short at the time. Two minutes later Grant Edwards salted the game away for the Clippers. Howard Forgie and Ron Guy figured in the tally. The Stouffville team buzzed around the Beeton net like a swarm of bees in the last period. Harold Hodgson, Phil Nicholas and Jake Harman all had excellent chances to extend the Stouffville lead. The contest was cleanly played. There was only one outbreak of fisticuffs. Forward Grant Edwards of the Clippers clipped Beeton netminder Bob Kearns with a high stick and the visiting goal guardian took exception to the clout. He charged from his cage and peppered
the Stouffville forward with a volley of rights and lefts to the nose. Kearns received a major while Edwards was banished for two minutes. BROWN MOVES UP PEEWEE (BANTAM) SCORING LADDER
Agile Ross Brown took a big jump up the Peewee Bantam goalscoring ladder this week. The fast-stepping lamp lighter collected a total of six goals on Monday evening to tie rival Canadien forward Francis
Haylow in this department. Each with 34 tallies. Haylow has picked up two more assists than the Pittsburg marksman to hold an edge in points. Brown has 40 points while haylow has 42. Trailing quite close on the heels of both players is the Leaf’s Bill Corner. His 4 goals on monday brings his total to 29 for the season to date. In addition he has picked up 6 assists for 35 points. Another Pittsburg player, Billy Payne is not too far off the pace with 20 goals and 9 assists for 29 points. LEAFS UPSET CANADIENS 7-3 IN PEEWEE (BANTAM) GAME
There were two upsets in the Peewee Bantam game between the Maple Leafs and Canadiens on Monday evening. It marked one of the few games this season that the Canadiens have lost as they bowed to the Leafs 7-3. It also marked one of the few contests in which hard-shooting forward
Francis Haylow has been held off the score sheet. Haylow could collect only one assist on the three goals counted by his linemate Billy Payne. At the other end of the ice, Bill Corner continued to blink the light as he fired four unassisted goals into the Montreal cage. He also picked up one assist. Kenny Aida potted a pair and Bill Brown notched one. The Leaf win moved Lloyd Jenning’s club to within three points of the league-leaders. Hornets 7, Buffalo 1 Ross Brown took advantage of Francis Haylow’s goalless game to pull into a two-way tie for the goal-scoring leadership. The tricky puck-juggler fired six goals as Pittsburg trounced Buffalo 7-1. Jim Hill notched one. Larry Taylor scored the lone Buffalo tally. GALBRAITH LEADS IN POINT-SCORING RACE
Arlan Galbraith is currently setting a torrid pace in the Lions Peewee League point-scoring race. The agile forward, formerly with the Black Hawks and recently transferred to the Red Wings, has collected a total of 29 points comprising 23 goals and 6 assists. In recent weeks his advance up the leagues scoring ladder has surpassed all other players. In spite of strong opposition from players on rival teams, the winger’s four goals on Thursday afternoon of last week moved him out front of all other competitors. Runners-up in the Peewee circuit are two Black Hawks, Tom Benson and Ted Redshaw. Both have collected 28 points. Benson has 25 goals and 3 assists while his linemate Redshaw has 2 goals and 4 assists. Benson’s 25 tallies is tops in the group. Keith betz of the Bruins has fired 11 goals and picked up 3 assists for 14 points. Team mate Donald Smith has 11 goals and one assist for
12 pts. Jim Mehaffey of the cellar-dwelling Rangers has blinked the light 10 times. Linemate Campbell is close behind with 8 goals. Murray Fenwick of the Bruins has 6 goals and 1 assist. LADIES BOWLING LEAGUE

This week I am pleased to pass along our Sports Award to MR. LLOYD TURNER, Lloyd Ave., Stouffville. MR. TURNER for years one of this town’s most ardent hockey fans, has, in recent seasons, turned his attention more to the operation of our minor leagues. A familiar figure in the arena MR. TURNER is known personally by most every member of our Peewee and Peewee (Bantam) organization. In his record book, he holds the statistics on every boy who performs in the eight
team group including goals, assists, penalties etc. In addition, he acts as timekeeper during the games. MR. TURNER’S activities are not confined only to the Peewee ranks. When necessary he also assists with the Bantams, Midgets and the Clippers. Working with our young hockey lads has become more than a part-time job to him. Like many other comparable positions, one must like it to do it and that, I believe, is very true in this case. MR. TURNER is the first to admit that he has been bitten by the minor hockey bug, an infection that has no known cure. We are therefore pleased to present to MR. LLOYD TURNER, two admission tickets to the PARK THEATRE, Stouffville, compliments of Messrs. Ted Topping and Harold Spofford. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. CLIPPERS EDGE MILTON 3-2, HARMON BANGS IN WINNING TALLY
Jake Harmon’s third period goal proved to be the winner on Friday night as the Clippers edged Milton 3-2. The two clubs return here on Friday night of this week for a pre-playoff encounter. Phil Nicholas put Stouffville out front in the second frame blinking the light on a pass from Harold Hodgson. Milton rallied to even the count early in the third frame. The Clippers moved ahead to stay on goals by Grant Edwards from Ted Vanderpol and Jake Harmon from Howard Forgie. Milton scored a second goal but could not net the equalizer. Grant Edwards, the Clippers “work horse” played a strong game for the winners. Max Vail and Russ Forfar also played well. Geo. Wilkins turned in a steady performance in the Stouffville net. BUD LEHMAN INJURED CLIPPERS LOSE 5-4
A gruelling three games in five nights schedule has had a telling effect on the Clippers. The locals eked out a tight 3-2 victory over Milton on Friday but were forced to come from behind to gain a 6-6 draw with Bradford on Saturday. On Tuesday night at Bradford, Jack Watson’s squad dropped a 5-4 verdict. The Clippers continue their rugged road trip when they journey to Beeton on Thursday and wind up the schedule with a contest here with Milton on Friday. One of Stouffville’s top production lines was put completely out of action when leftwinger Bud Lehman was hit in the mouth. Three front
teeth were snapped off. The injury was the result of an accident. Phil Nicholas is also on the sidelines with a sore knee. Although in attendance at the game he did not play. In spite of these injuries, the Clippers kept pace with Bradford until the final minutes of the 3rd period when the Marshmen potted the winner. Howard Bullock notched a pair. wilmot gates and Ted Vanderpol fired singles. SUTTON OUSTS MIDGETS IN FIRST PLAYOFF ROUND
One player sealed the fate of the Stouffville Midget club on Monday night. Croutch, an ex-Newmarket star, sparked the Sutton entry to a 6-3 win over Nick Bangay’s team to take the round ten goals to nine.
Stouffville took the opener 6-4. Sutton now moves on into further Provincial playoff competition.
Croutch fired four goals and picked up one assist in Sutton’s do-or-die effort. Cook notched a pair for the winners. Joe herold, Allan Boyd and Roger Stover were the Stouffville marksmen. In the first and second periods the homesters played far below par. Although they counted the first goal, they lapsed into unconsciousness for the remainder of the frame and allowed the visitors to score three in a row. Trailing 3-1 going into the second period Allan Boyd gave the locals renewed hope when he scored from Grant Foreman. A pair by Crouch lengthened Sutton’s lead to 5-2. Both teams scored singles in
the final frame. Cook tallied for Sutton and Roger Stover counted Stouffville’s final goal. CORNER FIRES DOUBLE HAT TRICK FOR LEAFS

In previous contests three, four and five goals per night were not uncommon, but it was the first game in which he collected a double hat- trick. All were solo efforts. The Leaf win kept them with in three points of the pace-setting
Canadiens. In addition to Corner’s six goal performance, Geo. Smith and Francis Haylow notched singles. Haylow was borrowed from the Canadiens club and Roger Mole was moved over from Buffalos team to bolster the Leafs ranks. As in past games, Ross Brown led the Hornet’s attack with 4 goals.
Jimmy Hill potted a pair. Jimmy Hill, Bobby Lamb and Wayne Oldham picked up assists. Canadiens 7, Buffalo 2 The Canadiens-Buffalo game was the same old story.

Brian Madill picked up two assists. Billy Payne assisted on one. The Buffalo squad were without the services of their top marksman, Larry Taylor which hampered their efforts.

The Black Hawks have hit the skids after setting a torrid pace atop the group for the greater part of the schedule. The Chicago team has been able to win only three of their last eight contests. Early in the season they won six in a row.In a thrilling contest on Thursday afternoon of last week, Ed Dawson’s
Bruins edged the hawks 3-2. Goaltender Wallace pugh of the Hawks was pulled from the net in favour of an extra forward in the dying minutes of the game, but the move failed to produce any goals.
Donald Smith was the hero for the winners. The first line forward fired all three goals for the Boston team. Bill Lehman set Tom Benson up for the Hawks first tally and Ted Redshaw scored their last goal with a close-in drive. Red Wings 6, Rangers 0 Arlan Galbraith is currently striking fear into the heart of every goaltender in the Peewee League.

If the third period in Friday nights game is any indication it would appear likely that the forthcoming Stouffville-Milton playoff round may develop into a rough and rugged series. Although the Clippers held
an 8-1lead going into the final frame, Milton fought back to outscore the locals 3-2 in the last period. Jack Watson’s squad outlasted the last-ditch rally to walk away with a 10-4 verdict. The final twenty minutes took on the aspect of a lacrosse game rather than a hockey match. Players of both teams used their sticks like war clubs. Luckily no man was injured. Referee Andy Closs let anything
and everything go in the hectic final frame. Only eight penalties were handed out in the entire game. Only ONE Milton player was banished. The most miscarriage of the rules occurred when speedy forward Grant Edwards of the Clippers roared in on the Milton net. The rightwinger was repeatedly slashed until his skates were finally cut from under him and he i fell to the ice. No penalty was called. Incensed the players retaliated and only the final buzzer kept the contest from getting completely out of hand. Milton did not ice their regular lineup. Their netminder was pressed
into action and two or three of usual benchwarmers took their turns up front and on defence. The Clippers are expected to confront much stronger opposition in the playoffs. Fridays game meant little or
nothing to Milton as it merely completed the regular schedule. For Stouffville, however, the victory assured them of their first place position. The playdowns will be a best four-out-of-seven game
series. The threesome of Phil Nicholas, Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman carried the mail for Stouffville. The trio counted seven of the ten Clipper tallies. Nicholas notched three, Hodgson and Lehman each potted a pair. Ted Vanderpol was a two- goal marksman. Defenceman Ron Guy
scored one. Ken Pollock fired two goals for Milton. Max Bradbury and Don Mills collected the others.
Stouffville led 3-1 at the end of the second and 10-1 at the halfway mark in the final frame. Milton struck hard and fast for their three third period goals. Ken Pollock potted a pair only 30 seconds apart
and Max Bradbury blinked the light fifteen seconds later. Three pucks were whipped behind goalie Geo. Wilkins within the space of 45 seconds. In spite of the rapid- fire action by theMilton marksmen, the
Stouffville puck-stopper turned in a fine performance in holding the opposition down to a mere four tallies. He turned aside at least a half-dozen wide-open scoring chances and blocked two clean-cut break aways. The two teams hook up again on Friday night of this week in the second game of the group playdowns. The third game will also be played here on Monday.. FANCY SKATING CLUB HOLDS ANNUAL TESTS

The local boys must defeat Markham on Thursday, Feb. 20th to force a sudden death playoff contrast in a neutral court. Markham posted a victory in their last game here. The winners of this group will advance on into further inter-school competition. Stouffville held an 8-0 lead at the end of the first quarter. The Yonge Street visitors quickly absorbed the locals early-game advantage and went on to win by thirteen points. In their first meeting at Aurora, Stouffville suffered a 50-28 setback. Their record to date in
the schedule is 3 wins 4 losses in 7 games. Gord Eckardt scored nine points for Stouffville. Fred Abraham collected eight. This two some and Roger Stover have played well throughout the entire schedule. Other members of the team are John Corner, Bill Sanders, Howie Pattenden, Allan Boyd, Ernie Abraham, Don Eddington and Gord Burkholder. In spite of their loss to Aurora, instructor Jim Rehill, is pleased with the noticeable improvement of the team since the first of the season. The squad has
received good support from the remaining members of the student body. All games are open to the public at a very small charge. The Stouffville vs Markham rivalry is also carried into the girls schedule. Each team has scored a victory and must now play off for the title. No definite date has been set for this crucial contest. BANTAMS TROUNCE PICKERING BY 8-1
Roger Forsyth centering a forward line with Brian Wilkes and Barry McLean hammered home three early-game goals to pace the Stouffville Bantams to an 8-1 win over Pickering on Thursday night. iIt was the first contest in a two game goals-to-count series. The return engagement is scheduled for Whitby onThursday of this week. The winner will advance into further Provincial playoff competition.
It was a case of being in the right place at the right time for the Stouffville pivot performer. Leftwinger Brian Wilkes potted one goal and picked up two assists. Barry McLean assisted on three of his linemates four tallies. Warren Hendricks potted a pair. Singles came from the sticks of Allan Lackey and Jim Malloy. Ross. Fertile notched the Pickering goal. Pickering proved to be little match for the homesters although Stouffville’s play was far from letter-perfect. On numerous occasions the wingers tend to wander out of position and bunch up in the corners. Pickering played their best hockey in the third period and although out-scored by the locals they tested goalie Glenn Jackson on number of occasions. Jackson not overworked was exceptionally keen on a half-dozen Pickering shots. In the first period he grabbed one drive that was aimed for the top corner of the net, The dazzling save amazed both the players and the fans. Pickering pressed two net-minders into action. Jerry Wilkes handled
the puck-stopping chores in the first and second periods Ivan Simmonds took over in the final frame. The visitors boasted two formidable defencemen who carried much of the offensive attack. Their solo efforts “petered out” at the Stouffville blueline and they failed to pose any serious goal-scoring threat. Roger Forsyth’s third goal and a last-second tally by Warren Hendricks were the prettiest plays of the game. Barry McLean set up Forsyth carrying the puck into the Pickering zone and flipping it to his linemate standing uncovered in front of the net. Hendricks goal was a rifle shot from the blueline that sizzled into the top corner of the cage. The tally came only one second before the end of the game. Warren Hendricks centered a line with Jim Knox and Allan Lackey on the wings. Jim Malloy worked between wayne Hamilton and Garry Brown. Norm Tindall, Peter Stover, Stan Feasby and Keith McDowell performed on defence. The first period was less than half a minute old when Allan Lackey
picked up Warren Hendricks pass and blinked the light. At 5:09 Roger Forsyth fired the first of his three goal hat trick on passes from Brian Wilkes and Barry McLean. Forsyth made if 3-0 with Keith McDowell and Brian Wilkes drawing assists. Near the end of the period Pickering’s Ross Fertile spoiled Jackson’s shutout attempt with his teams lone tally. At the four minute mark of the middle period, Roger Forsyth and Barry McLean teamed up for Stouffville’s fourth goal. The homesters were awarded a “free” goal at 8:45 when a Pickering player fell on the loose puck in the goal crease and pulled it in under his body. The Pickering official allowed Stouffville the goal. Jimmy Malloy gained credit for the tally. Warren Hendricks made it 6-1 on passes from Jim Knox and Peter Stover. Pickering made a definite bid to close the gap in the final frame but could not beat goalie Jackson in the Stouffville net. Their offensive attack left them wide open and Stouffville broke free on a number of occasions. Roger Forsyth had a clearcut chance to lengthen the locals lead but goalie Ivan Simmonds
blocked the shot. Brian Wilkes had an equally good chance but he bounced the puck off the goalies pads. On a second attempt leftwinger Wilkes batted in Harry McLeans pass at the past 13:22 mark. In the dying minutes Hendricks grabbed off a loose puck and back-passed to Lackey. Lackey shot was blocked. Jus as the buzzer sounded Hendricks blazed a scorcher pat Simmonds. There were only five penalties in the game, four to Pickering and one to Stouffville. CANADIENS BEAT LEAFS, HAYLOW SCORES EIGHT
Francis Haylow ran wild again on Monday evening in one of his most prolific goalscoring performances of the Peewee Bantam schedule. The agile puck-chaser blinked the light eight times. His team, the
Canadiens downed the leafs 8-6. Five of his tallies were unassisted efforts. Allan Meabry, Brian Madill and Billy Payne picked up assists on the others. Haylow’s one man show was needed to beat the Leafs. The second position club turned in a better team effort although they failed to produce the necessary goals to win. Four players figured in the scoring. Bill Corner and Kenny Aida each potted a pair. Geo. Smith and Bill Brown notched singles. Bill Corner and Geo. Smith each collected Hornets 4, Buffalo 0 Pittsburg pulled to within 6 points of the Canadiens by registering a 4-0 shutout over Buffalo. Bill Corner, a regular with the Leafs bolstered the Hornets lineup and figured in three of the teams four tallies. He scored one and assisted on two. Ross Brown fired a three goal hat trick. Jim Harper and Jim Hill each collected one assist. PEEWEE PLAYER GET PENALTY SHOT
For the first time in the six-year history of the Lions Peewee League, a penalty shot was awarded. The situation occurred in the closing minutes of a game between the Red Wings and the Black Hawks on
Thursday afternoon. Ronnie Castle of the Wings broke free at the Hawk blueline and while
steaming in on the Chicago net was tripped by leftwinger Tom Benson. The referee ruled a penalty shot on the play. Ronnie Castle was selected to take the shot. The Wings held a 4-3 lead at the time.
Castle wound up at centre ice, picked the puck up at the blueline and skated in on the defenceless Arthur Maxwell in the Hawk net. The rightwinger cut in on the goal and aimed for the top left hand corner of the cage. Maxwell dropped to the ice to block the shot. The puck clipped j the handle of his stick and caromed harmlessly off the back boards. “I aimed for the top of the net but he (the goalie) was just too good for me,”explained the Red Winger in the dressing room following the game. In spite of a last-ditch attempt by the Hawks to even the score, the Wings held and eked out a 4-3 ictory. Netminder Arthur Maxwell was pulled from the cage with two minutes to go in the game but the Hawks could not sink the equalizer. Detroit puckstopper Billy Farthing turned in a fine performance in the goal for the winners. With the exception of the penalty shot, it was Ronnie Castle’s night. Minus the services of rightwinger Arlan Galbraith, the league’s top marksman, linemate Castle took over and rifled all four Red Wing tallies into the Hawk net. For Detroit j it was a one-man show with Castle taking complete command up front. Barry Hilts also played well and picked up an assist on one goal. Ted Redshaw regained his old form and fired two of the Hawks three goals. Tom Benson notched one. Bill Lehman picked up an assist on Redshaw’s first tally. The Red Wing victory moved Trace Woodward’s squad to within two points of the league-leading Hawks. Bruins 3, Rangers 1 Ed Dawson’s Bruins kept pace with the second place Wings by chalking up a 3-1 win over the Rangers. Keith Betz sparked the Boston club
with a three goal hat trick. Jim Mehaffey teamed up with brother Bruce to score the lone New York tally. In spite of their efforts each week. Lorne Boadway’s team remain marooned in the cellar with
only 2 wins and 2 ties in 15 games. They may yet upset their opposition in the forth-coming playoffs.

This week we are pleased to present our Sports Award to the top Peewee player in the Lions Minor League ARLAN GALBRAITH. The left wing smoothy has collected a total of 40 goals and 10 assists for 50
points. His record far exceeds that of his closest rival. On Thursday afternoon of last week the agile left winger counted seven goals and picked up two assists. He performs with the Red Wings. To ARLAN
GALBRAITH, Stouffville’s top Pee wee player, we present two admission tickets to the PARK THEATRE, Stouffville, compliments of Messrs. Ted Topping and Harold Spofford.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… CLIPPERS TAKE TWO GAMES PLAYOFF LEAD
The Stouffville Clippers squeezed out two tight victories over Milton last week in their best four-out-of-seven game group playoff series. They eked out a 5-3 win at Milton on Wednesday and followed through with a see-saw 9-8 victory on Friday. The third game scheduled for Stouffville on Monday night was cancelled. The two teams move over to Milton for an encounter on Friday of this week. Lehman Sinks Winner Bud Lehman brought the fans to their feet at the 18:14 mark of the third period when he picked up a loose puck and fired it into the open net. It was his second goal of the game. His final tally proved to be the winner Harold Hodgson and Phil Nicholas picked up assists on the goal. Only seconds before Bud Lehman had raced in on the Milton net but his drive missed the target. His team mates kept the puck inside the visitors blueline and finally slipped the disk to the leftwinger standing uncovered in front of the cage with goalie Fred Lever completely out of position, Lehman easily flipped the puck into the twine. Brief Lead For one minute and twenty seconds Milton held a one goal lead. For
the remainder of the contest the two clubs were either deadlocked or Stouffville held the advantage. At 16:36 of the second period, the Chiefs broke a 4-4 tie when Jack Roberts blinked the light. The
Milton lead was short-lived however as Bud Lehman roared back for the Clippers and evened the count at 17:56. Grant Edwards teamed up with Howard Bullock to put Stouffville out front 6-5 and end the scoring in the second period. Both goals by Lehman and Edwards came with Milton players in the penalty box. Goalies Good Goalie Fred Leven of Milton was one of the standout performers on the
ice. Especially agile with his gloved hand, he blocked numerous goal-labelled drives with comparative ease. The majority of pucks that evaded him couldn’t have been blocked by Jacques Plante. Clipper
netminder Geo Wilkins also played well. Although Milton lacked the accuracy of the Stouffville forwards, they gave goalie Wilkins a busy time on various occasions throughout the game. Goals In Pairs
Stouffville’s goals came in groups of two’s. Ted Vanderpol, Bud Lehman, Grant Edwards and Phil Nicholas each potted a pair. Harold Hodgson scored one. As in previous contests the power line of
Nicholas, Hodgson and Lehman sparked the Clipper goalscoring attack. The trio notched five of the team’s nine tallies. Milton’s goals were more spread out with only two players firing more than one goal
apiece. Terry Brush and Jack Roberts each counted two. Singles came from the sticks of Art Melanson, John Patterson, Murray Grenke and John Heipel. Penalties Hurt Three of Stouffville’s nine goals came with Milton playing a man short. In the second period McCann of the Chiefs was banished for two minutes for holding the puck and delaying the game. While he was off, Bud Lehman scored. Less than a minute later Max Bradbury of the visitors was thumbed to the cooler for hooking. While off, Grant Edwards scored. In the third period Walt Wilson of Milton was penalized and once again the Clippers struck for a goal. Grant Edwards wound up with a thirty foot shot and blinked the light. With the score deadlocked at 8-8 Bud Lehman of the Clippers received a holding penalty. Coach Jack Watson
employed the services of forwards Howard Forgie and Wilmot Gates and Ted Vanderpol and Grant Edwards to spell off the time. They held the opposition off the score sheet. Hardly had Lehman returned to the ice when he planted the puck in the Milton cage. BANTAMS BEAT PICKERING 13-1 IN PLAYOFF SERIES
In spite of rather dubious predictions, Stouffville’s Bantam team, coached by Hal Gibson and Keith Sutherland are still very much in Ontario playoff competition. They cleared their first hurdle on
Thursday evening when they blanked Pickering 5-0 in the Whitby Arena. Coupled with their convincing victory here at home by 8-1, the local squad wrapped up the goals-to-count series 13 goals to 1. They now meet Bobcaygeon in a two game series. As in the opener, it was Warren Hendricks who sparked the Stouffville attack. Firing two goals and assisting on another, the local centre star was in on three of the five tallies for the winners. They led 2-0 in the first frame and sewed up the contest and the series with
three unanswered goals in the last period. They were held oft the score sheet in the second. Barry McLean opened the scoring for Stouffville on a pass from Norm Tindall, Warren Hendricks potted his first of two with Allan Lackey picking up an assist. Barry McLean opened the scoring for Stouffville on a pass from Norm Tindall. Warren Hendricks potted his first of two with Allan Lackey picking up an assist.
In the final frame, Hendricks made it 3-0 from Stan Feasby and Jimmy Malloy lengthened the Stouffville lead with an unassisted tally. Jim Knox completed the scoring on a pass from Warren Hendricks.
Stouffville goalie Glenn Jackson turned in a perfect performance to rack up his initial shut out of the young playoff season.. ROSS BROWN AIDS BUFFALO CELLAR DWELLERS
Ross Brown went on a two hour scoring spree on Monday evening. He scored four goals as Pittsburg defeated Canadiens 6-1 and then bolstered a weakened Buffalo club and added three more tallies to his
total. Buffalo battled the Leafs to a 5-5 tie in the Buffalo-Leaf contest. Darcy Forsyth and Billy Harmon blinked the light for the cellar-dwellers. In addition to Brown’s hat trick performance, Kenny Aida had a good night with three goals and two assists. Bill Corner and Bill Brown each notched singles. Buffalo have yet to win a game this season. They have three ties. In the other game Bill Corner was shifted from the Leafs to Pittsburg due to a player shortage on the Hornet club. He scored one goal. Ross Brown potted four. Jim Hill picked up one assist. Francis Haylow fired the lone Canadien tally. REDWINGS DRUB BRUINS 11-2 IN PEWEE GAME
After a weeks layoff due to sickness, leftwinger Arlan Galbraith returned to Peewee hockey action on Thursday afternoon of last week. From the scoring statistics the speedy forward suffered no ill effects as he paced the Red Wings to an 11-2 win over the Bruins. The Detroit marksman whipped seven pucks past Bill Harper in the Boston net. He also picked up a pair of assists. Ronnie Castle and Paul Lintner each scored two tallies. Ronnie Castle picked up one assist. Murray Fenwick fired both Boston goals. The Red Wings win moved Trace Woodward’s club to with in one point of the league-leading Black Hawks. The Hawks were held to a 3-3 tie by the Rangers. Rangers 3, Hawks 3 The Mehaffey brothers, Bruce and Jim were almost too much for the Rangers. The combination clicked on all three Ranger goals as they held the hawks to a 3-3 tie. Jim Mehaffey counted two goals. Leonard Blacklock scored one. Bruce Mehaffey collected a pair of assists. Ted Redshaw with two and Michael Vizely were the Black Hawk marksmen. Ted Redshaw’s second goal saved the Hawks from a loss. There were
only two minutes left in the game when he blinked the light. Bill Lehman picked up an assist. Tom Benson turned in a good performance in the Black Hawk net. Walter Taylor and Blair Wagg formed a
stonewall defence for the Rangers. LADIES BOWLING LEAGUE

This week we are pleased to present our Sport Award to one of the top basketball players on the Stouffville District High School’s junior girl’s team. MISS ANN DICKINSON, a resident in the east end of town, is mainly responsible for bringing the District C.O.S.S.A. basketball honours to her school. A grade 11 student, MISS DICKINSON collected a total of 25 point out of 33 in a crucial contest with Markham on
Monday afternoon. The win allowed Stouffville to advance into further district competition. Possessing a keen eye the blonde forward has been one of the mainstays of the team throughout the season. Her long shots have amazed even the opposition and much of the clubs hope of further accomplishment depend on the continuance of her point-scoring spree. To ANN DICKINSON,local junior basketball star, we present two admission tickets to the PARK THEATRE, Stouffville, compliments of Messrs. Ted Topping and Harold Spofford.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. CLIPPERS BATTLE MILTON TO 2-2 OVERTIME TIE
Stouffville Clippers and Milton Chiefs battled to a 2-2 over time tie here on Monday night in the fourth game of their Int. ‘B’ group playoff finals. The two clubs will square off again here on Friday with the sixth game on Milton ice. Stouffville now needs one victory, and a tie to take the group honours.
Evenly Matched In Monday’s game and in previous playoff contests there’s little to choose between the two teams. In the four games played to date, Stouffville has scored 22 goals. Milton has counted 21.
Looked Good Milton netminder, Fred Lever turned in a fine puck-stopping performance on Monday night, but on a number of saves Stouffville MADE him look good. In the first period alone, Phil Nicholas and Ted Vanderpol of the Clippers skated in on his doorstep but shot into his pads. Defenceman Russ Forfar had a clean-cut breakaway but missed the net by a foot. The second and third periods were much the same. Harold Hodgson rifled the puck off Lever’s pads in the middle frame. In the third period Phil Nicholas was blocked on two occasions. Ted Vanderpol was stopped once. All were breakaway scoring opportunities. Did His Share Stouffville netminder George Wilkins handled his share of
goal-labelled shots and was one of the Clippers best in the 3rd period. He was exceptionally keen when he turned aside Milton’s two top stars, Ken Pollock and Art Melanson. Milton’s shooting was very
poor in the early stages of the game. While stouffville forwards were bouncing the puck off goalie Levers armour, Milton were missing the target entirely. Their accuracy improved however as the contest progressed and they tested goaltender Wilkins on a number of occasions. Looked Tired
For thirty minutes of the game, the Clippers held an edge in territorial play. The homesters appeared to tire badly in the latter stages and lacked their usual drive. Bud Lehman. one of the clubs hustlers. was slowed down to a walk in the final frame. Defenceman Russ Forfar, also one of the more aggressive performers, couldn’t get untracked all night. Phil Nicholas turned in a steady effort. The checking was heavy at times, which seemed to take the steam out of the Stouffville attack. Never Behind The Clippers were never behind throughout the game. They held one goal leads both during the regulation time and in over time but couldn’t retain their advantage. Bud Lehman shoved Harold Hodgson’s rebound over the line at 7:26 of the first period. Milton rallied to even the count at 9:30 of the final frame. In the ten minute overtime session, Ted Vanderpol scooped Ron Guys goalmouth shot into the twine but once again the visitors roared back to deadlock the score. Ken Pollock potted both milton goals. Large Crowd
Monday night’s crowd was one of the better turnouts of the season. It is expected however that the attendance on Friday evening should well exceed Monday’s figure. A loss for the Clippers on Friday would even the series and force the playoffs to the seven game limit. A Stouffville victory would give Jack Watson’s squad a stranglehold on the group playdowns. With little to choose between the clubs anything could happen. JUNIOR GIRLS WIN C.O.S.S.A. DISTRICT BASKETBALL CHAMPIONSHIP
The Stouffville District High School Junior ‘B’ girls basket ball team captured the Central Ontario Secondary School Association district basketball title on Monday afternoon defeating Markham 33-25. The two teams had previously split in their home and home engagements. The toss of a coin permitted the crucial rubber game to be played at Markham. The winners now meet Brock High School in a two game series. The opener was staged at Stouffville on Wednesday afternoon with the return tilt on Friday. The team collecting the most points will advance into further district competition. Stouffville’s Ann Dickinson led the local girls to their important win on Monday. The agile forward rolled up a total of 25 points. Team Captain, Helen Gayman and Linda Sanders shared the others. The winning entry comprised the following players — Helen Gayman (cap’t) Ann Dickinson, Linda Sanders, Barb Miller, Dianne Nelson, Faye Byers, Barb Williams, Elaine Forsyth, Daphne Chewins and Susan Ogilvy.
Boys Lose
Stouffville’s junior boys team didn’t fare so well as the girls they dropped the second game of their home and home series with markham 67-29. A win for the local club would have forced a sudden-death
final. Markham now moves on to meet Port Perry. The winner will then tackle Huntsville. Alan Tidsbury, an all-round athlete, paced the Markham winners with 24 points. Monte Thiel collected 19 and Bill DeGuerre counted 11. John Leishman scored six. Fred Abrahams 11 points was tops for Stouffville. Gord Eckardt counted 9. Roger Stover, Don Eddington and Gord Eckardt were the locals best. John Corner played well but missed on a number of sure shots. Markham held an 18-8 advantage in the first quarter and led 32-16 at half time. It was 47-25 in Markham’s favour at three-quarter time.
The winners counted 20 points in the final quarter, while Stouffville were held to a mere four.

The Canadiens continue to set pace atop the Peewee (Bantam) League. On Monday evening they toppled Buffalo 7-3 to their four point lead over second place Leafs. In the other contest the Maple Leafs edged Pittsburg 3-2. Throughout the entire schedule the Canadiens have lost three games. They have tied two. The Montreal win was a better team effort than in previous contests with four players figuring in the scoring. Haylow led the pack with a three goal hat trick. He picked up one assist. Brian Madill, one of the Claremont contributions to the town, potted a pair. Billy Payne and Bruce Browning each fired singles. Allan Meabry picked up an assist on one of Brian Madill’s tallies.

Leafs 3, Pittsburg 2 A pair of goals by Bill Corner and a single by Kenny Aida gave the Maple Leafs a tight 3-2 win over Pittsburg. Billy Yates and Bill Corner each picked up one assist. Ross Brown, a usual three and four goal marksman, was held to one tally. For the Hornets, Jim Harper blinked the light for the team’s other goal. HAWKS CLING TO FIRST PLACE: BLANK BRUINS
The Black Hawks are still hanging on to their precarious first place position in the Lions Peewee Hockey League. Only one point separates them from the Red Wings. In the runners-up spot. While Trace
Woodward’s Wings were trouncing the Rangers 8-2 the Hawks were holding the Bruins off the score sheet with a 7-0 shutout. After one month relapse, the Hawks first string trio of Ted Redshaw,Tom Benson and Bill Lehman suddenly caught fire and scored all seven Chicago goals. Centreman Redshaw fired three tallies and picked up a pair of assists. Rightwinger Benson counted a hat trick and assisted on one. Linemate Bill Lehman scored one goal and picked up one assist. David Lackey racked up a shutout in the Hawk net. Keith Betz carried the attack for the Bruins. He had numerous excellent chances to score but couldn’t hit the target. Wings 8, Rangers 2 Trace Woodward’s well-balanced Red Wings turned their heavy guns on Lorne Boadway’s Rangers and racked up an 8-2 victory. Four Detroit
players figured in the scoring. Arlan Galbraith notched four. Ronnie Castle potted a pair and assisted on two. Barry Hiltz and Paul Lintner each fired singles. Barry Hilts assisted on one. As in previous games it was the Mehaffey brothers who paced the Ranger attack. Jim Mehaffey blinked the light for one goal. Brother bruce collected the other tally with line- mate Jim assisting. LADY WINS SUIT
The February winner of the Stouffville Lions club “Suit a Month” draw is a lady, Miss L M. Boyd of 26 Humber Trail in Toronto held the lucky ticket which was sold by George Beazley of Ballantrae. There are two more chances left. Tickets may be obtained from any Lions Club member. A fine opportunity to win a smart “made to measure” suit for Easter. LADIES BOWLING LEAGUE

CLIPPERS BEAT MILTON 5-2 HERE FRIDAY NIGHT
Stouffville Clippers took a stranglehold on the group play off finals Friday night when they registered a 5-2 victory over Milton Chiefs. Jack Watson’s squad need only a tie to capture the honours and move on
into further OHA Intermediate ‘B’ competition. The two clubs hooked up again on Wednesday night in Milton. A loss for Stouffville would swing the series back here on Friday evening for a seventh and final
contest. Largest Crowd The largest crowd in two sea ons attended the Stouffville-Milton encounter on Friday night. It was a thrilling game from the drop of the puck. In the first frame the contest to a spectacular conclusion when four Stouffville players mounted the boards and be embroiled in fist-swinging with a half-dozen fans. The spectators,in turn, poured out on the ice where the brawl continued. The combatants were finally parted amid of return-game reprisals. Few Penalties In spite of the end-of-the-game flare-up, there were few penalties throughout the contest . Stouffville players made 6 trips to the cooler. Milton players were banished on five occasions. Only in the second frame did tempers f lare. Howard Forgie of the Clippers and Murray Grenke of Milton squared off but no damage was done. Neither player was penalized. Howard Bullock of Stouffville and Ken Pollock of the Chiefs had a brief set-to a few minutes later. The Clipper forward was banished with a double minor penalty. Pollock received a minor. Goalies Good As in previous games, both netminders, turned in fine performances. Geo. Wilkins of the Clippers and Fred Lever of Milton held much of the spotlight. Stouffville goalie, Wilkins, looked especially keen in the second period when he blocked Ken Pollock, Murray Grenke, and Jack Loos. The Milton goal-guardian appeared a trifle shaky in the first

AWARD OF THE WEEK
This week we are pleased to present our sports award to the Stouffville Bantam Team’s flashiest performer, WARREN HENDRICKS. Never in a long time have we watched such a little guy do so much as
in the Stouffville-Campbellford play off game here on Monday night. Aside from scoring three goals and assisting on another the curly-haired puck-juggler was used in a penalty-killing role with excellent results. His every rush was greeted with rousing cheers and applause. For one of the smallest players on the ice, he rose head and shoulders above even the best of the opposition. For this sparkling team effort, we are pleased to present to WARREN HENDRICKS two admission tickets to the PARK THEATRE, Stouffville compliments of Messrs. Ted Topping and Harold Spofford.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… HENDRICKS STARS IN OPENER-TIE CAMPBELLFORD 4-4
For sixty electrifying minutes plus a hectic overtime period Stouffville and Campbellford Bantams battled to a 4-4 dead-lock. It was the first game in a best two-out-of-three series in the Ontario ‘C’ Semifinals. The return contest will be staged in Campbellford on Thursday night. More than 250 fans, many of them wildly cheering public school supporters, watched the torrid tilt. Their enthusiasm shook the very rafters in the rink as they urged on their hometown favourites. On every move it was one of the most nerve-racking games to be played here this season. Two Stouffville players stole the show. Centre ice star, Warren Hendricks was a standout performer. Goalie Glenn Jackson worked like
a veteran in the local’s cage. Hendricks, a dipsy-doodle artist bagged three goals and picked up one assist. Goalie Jackson was bombarded with 61 shots. Only four evaded him. He stopped 17 drives in each of the first and second periods. He was peppered with 12 shots in the third frame and 11 in the overtime session. At the other end of the arena, Campbellford netminder Bill Donald handled only 22 pucks. The contest was a seesaw battle all the way. The visitors led 1-0 at the end of the first period but Stouffville evened the count at 1-1 in the second. Each club potted a pair of goals in the third frame and
netted singles in overtime. Each team held a one goal edge on two occasions. Edwin Burleigh, a two-goal marksman for Campbellford, poked the first puck into the twine at 7:38 of the first ame. Stouffville were badly outplayed in the opening period and had only three shots on the visitor’s cage. Jimmy Malloy, Brian Wilkes and Warren Hendricks missed on close-in chances. The second period saw Stouffville gain a share of the territorial play but inaccurate shooting around the Campbellford cage spoiled many of their scoring opportunities. Finally with one minute remaining in the period, Jim Knox rifled the puck through goalie Donald’s pads. Warren Hendricks and Keith McDowell picked up assists on the tally. Forward Warren Hendricks brought the more than 200 fans to their feet at 9:45 of the third period, when his low shot caught the bottom corner of the net. Linemate Jim Knox set up the tally. Stouffville’s hopes suffered a setback less than two minutes later when Edwin Burleigh evened the count at 11:09. Twenty-eight seconds later Warren Hendricks teed off with a golf shot and blinked the light to give Stouffville a momentary 3-2 lead. The advantage was short-lived however as Rick Holmes lit the lamp at 17:12 and forced the game into an extra period of overtime. All appeared lost for the locals at 3:19 of the extra session. A loose puck evaded goalie Jackson’s outstretched glove and Jimmy Kerr
of Campbellford flipped it over the line. Not to be outdone, first-string centre Warren Hendricks pulled the trigger for Stouffville’s first shot on the Campbellford cage in the overtime session. His drive hit the target and forced the teams to divide the two point contest. There were seven penalties in the well-played game. Stouffville found themselves in drastic circumstances in the third period when defenceman Keith McDowell and forward Brian Wilkes were thumbed to the penalty box for two minutes. Warren Hendricks, Jim Knox and Stan Feasby held the fort and no damage was done.
The Stouffville team has chartered a bus for Thursdays trip to Campbellford. Many interested fans will make the 150 mile journey with the players for the return tilt. Campbellford won the toss for the third game. RANGERS STAGE UPSET IN PEEWEE PLAYOFF SERIES
Lorne Boadway’s Rangers staged a real upset in the opening game of the Peewee round-robin playoffs on Thursday afternoon by registering a 5-3 victory over the Black Hawks. The Hawks had led the league throughout the entire schedule, while the Rangers were mired in the cellar position. If they can score a victory over the powerful Red Wings on Thursday of this week, they will have a fine chance of winning the Peewee championship. In the other contest the Wings blanked the bruins 6-0. As in previous games, it was the Mehaffey brothers who paced the Rangers to their important playoff victory. Jim Mehaffey scored four goals while brother Bruce notched one. Teddy Todd and Blair Wagg each picked up one assist. Tom Benson potted a pair of goals for the Rangers. Arthur Maxwell netted one. Tom Benson also picked up an assist on that tally. The Rangers couldn’t get unpacked throughout the game. When they did organize an attack their plays were usually broken-up by defenceman Blair Wagg. The Red Wing threesome of Arlan Galbraith, Ronnie Castle and Paul Lintner shared the six Detroit goals. Arlan fired a 3-goal hat trick while Ronnie netted a pair. Paul Lintner counted a goal and an assist. Barry Hilts and Arlan Galbraith each collected one assist. The combination of Keith Betz and Donald Smith was enough to hold the wings off the score sheet. Keith Betz skated himself into near exhaustion in an attempt to spark his club in the playoff opener. He had little luck around the Detroit cage and either missed the target or was blocked by agile puckstopper Billy Farthing. He hit the goal on only one try. BROWN SCORES FIVE; HORNETS WIN 5-3

March 27 1958 (con’t) FOUR HUNDRED FANS SEE BANTAMS WIN OMHA SEMI-FINAL SERIES
Nearly four hundred fans were on hand on Monday night at the local arena and saw the Stouffville Bantams, a club sponsored by the Lions Club here, down Campbellford 3 to 1 in a real thriller. The series
standing had stood at a tie and a win each prior to Monday night and the winner will now advance into the Ontario Bantam finals against either Elora or Shallow Lake. This is the first time in local hockey
history that a minor hockey team has reached the Provincial finals. Both clubs went into the final frame deadlocked at 1-1 and tension mounted as the minutes dragged by without a further score. Both teams
came close but at 10:13 of the last period, Brian Wilkes took a pass out of the corner from Warren Hendricks and slammed it home to put Stouffville in the lead 2 to 1. Campbellford continued to press and Glenn Jackson had to be really good on several occasions to stave off close-in attacks. As their all-out effort failed to pay off Campbellford faded ever so slightly and a play which was set up in centre ice, put Roger Forsyth in the clear. He took a long pass up the ice from Barry McLean and cut in from the left side to beat Donald and salt the game away at 14:19. Campbellford had taken the lead in the first period at 17:04 when LaBrash scored from Kerr. Despite the fact that the visitors were banished for minor penalties on three occasions in the first period, Stouffville couldn’t beat Donald in the net. The local boys served one tripping penalty in the first twenty minutes. The second period was just three minutes old when Brian Wilkes who notched two of his team’s three goals, tied the score on a pass from Hendricks who was a standout player for Stouffville. Tindall went to the penalty box for Stouffville in the second and Holmes for Campbellford but no damage resulted when either team was shorthanded.
There were no penalties in the final period. The young fellows gave everything they had as did the Campbellford opposition and the result remained in doubt up until the dying moments. This was possibly the largest crowd to ever attend a minor league game here and they enjoyed every minute of it. The Stouffville club entertained their visitors at the Mayfair restaurant following the match in return for the same hospitality shown them on their last visit down east. CLIPPERS BEAT PICTON 6-3 TO LEAD SERIES
Stouffville Clippers took a one-game lead in their four-out- of-seven layoff series with Picton, beating the eastern Ontario squad 6-3 on Monday night. The two clubs swing back to Stouffville for the fourth
contest on Friday night of this week. The Clippers won the opener 6-2 but dropped a 3-2 decision here on Saturday. Stouffville never trailed in Monday’s tilt. Picton rallied to even the score at 2-2 in the first period but couldn’t hold their opposition in check for the remainder of the game. The locals led 5-2
at the end of the second and wound up on the top end of a 6-3 score. Ted Vanderpol paced the Stouffville attack with a pair of goals. Single tallies came from the sticks of Phil Nichols, Pete Lacey, Ron
Guy and Harold Hodgson. Tip Vipond held down a defence spot in the Stouffville lineup and played well despite a rather lengthy layoff.

responsible for the beautiful costume designing in this carnival, the seventh annual for the Stouffville Club. The choreography and direction were shared jointly by the two instructors, Charles Kiel and
Miss Betty MacDonald. It would be impossible to name all the wonderful acts in the show, but
each had its individual appeal and together they made for a well-rounded performance. The tiny tots of the club made up for their lack of perfection by their charm and drew some of the biggest rounds of applause. Little ones who looked little more than old enough to walk delighted every-one.
Toyland on Ice, Sand Paper Precision, Merry Widow Waltz, Tyrolean Capers, Autumn Leaves Ballet, French Maids and Highland Fling were the major presentations and solos were provided by Jocelyn Button, Janice Smith, Darlene Watson, Carole Foord, Jean Winterstein and Karen Lewis.

BANTAMS LOSE 5-1 IN PLAYOFF OPENER.
Stouffville “Lions” entry in the Ontario Bantam ‘C’ playoff finals dropped a 5-1 verdict to Shallow Lake on Tuesday night. The game was played in the Wiarton Arena. The return contest is scheduled for
Stouffville on Friday evening at 8:30. A victory for Stouffville would force a third and deciding game here on Monday. Stouffville won the toss for the extra game. The heavier opposition rolled up a 4-0 lead before Stouffville could break the ice. Their third period tally came from the stick of Brian Wilkes. Linemate Warren Hendricks picked up an assist. Adams of Shallow Lake (No. 6) netted three early game goals for the winners. A crowd of 280 fans was in attendance. Quite a large contingent of
fans made the 160 mile trip from Stouffville. A record crowd is expected to attend the contest here on Friday. Stouffville’s Barry McLean was one of the stars for the local lads. Although he failed to figure in the scoring, he turned in a fine two-way effort. Goalie Glenn Jackson was also in top form. He turned
aside many determined scoring bids by the opposition. The Shallow Lake netminder, a defence-man turned goalie, also played well but was robbed of a shut out by Brian Wilkes’ third period tally. A towering goal-guardian, he stands an estimated 6’ 1” in height. The Ontario champion will receive the Fred C. Waghorne trophy, emblematic of the Bantam ‘C’ title. The runners-up will receive the
Vice President’s trophy. Local OMHA Executive Member, Mr. James Austin has both awards in his possession. LORNE SCHELL CONDUCTS STOUFFVILLE JUDO SCHOOL
A very successful judo school is now operating in Stouffville. The capable instructor is Mr. Lorne Schell. The boys meet twice a week, every Monday and Thursday evening from 7:30 to 10 p.m. The school is held in a renovated section of Percy Brillinger’s barn adjacent to Schell’s parking lot. If you’re looking for an argument pick your opponent carefully. Twenty Stouffville youth are rapidly becoming
amazingly adept at the art of judo and can handle themselves with extreme agility. This is presently the membership of the local judo school. The instructor informed the Tribune that there is still room
for a few more recruits. The Stouffville school is a branch of the famous Hatashita organization operated by Mr. Frank Hatashita of Toronto. Instructor Lorne Schell explained that the art of judo promotes self
confidence. It is an excellent means of self defence and healthful exercise. The Stouffville members took part in tests in Toronto on Friday night in an effort to advance in rank. Only persons good health are permitted to take the course. A number of girls have requested that ladies judo school should be organized. Mr. Schell is giving consideration to such a scheme. He feels that knowledge of judo is just as important for girls as for men. There is no weight classification in judo. A boy weighing 140 pounds
is able through the science of judo to throw an opponent weighing over 200. The age classification has a spread from six to sixty. The degree of a member’s prowess in judo is signified by the colour of his belt. A beginner wears white and advances through yellow, orange, green, blue, brown and black. Lorne Schell is a brown belt. The local instructor explained that only one member of 400 beginners will complete the entire course and obtain his black belt. The Hatashita school has more than 700 members. A large number of girls are also enrolled. Judo is an art that has been perfected by
the Japanese. The weekly judo workouts are held in quarters where the temperature
hovers close to the 90 degree mark. Large padded mats cushion the falls. Chances of injury are very slight according to the instructor. He watches the members very closely at all times. The men are garbed
in loose white garments which permit freedom of action. They practice barefoot. Persons desirous of obtaining additional information on the operation of the school should contact Mr. Lorne Schell at Stouffville 474 or 220. CLIPPERS LOSE 5TH GAME 5-3, EXPECT SHAKEUP FOR SAT.
Stouffville Clipper Coach Jack Watson will lower the boom on his hockey recruits prior to Saturday nights crucial encounter with Picton. Coach Watson informed the Tribune that he will definitely make some changes in the lineup in an effort to organize a winning combination. Stouffville holds a 3-2 game edge in the four-out-of-seven series. A loss for the Clippers here on Saturday night will swing the set back to Picton for a do-or-die contest on Monday. A sixth game was forced due to a Stouffville loss at Picton on Monday by a score of 5-3. The winner will meet either Bracebridge or Dundas. Coach Jack Watson expressed concern over his teams recent performances. He plans to take some drastic steps and a club
“shakeup” is planned. The absence of leftwinger Bud Lehman has noticeably affected the play of his first-string line. Pete Lacey was shifted into the pivot position for Friday’s game and Bruce McDowell
worked between Hodgson and N icholas in Monday’s tilt at Picton. The second threesome of Howard Forgie, Ted Vanderpol and Grant Edwards failed to get untracked all night. In Monday’s contest, Stouffville held a 1-0 edge at the end of the first period. The two teams were deadlocked at 2-2 at the end of the second. The Clippers ran out of steam in the final frame and Picton outscored the local squad 3-1. Harold Hodgson, Ted Vanderpol and Jim Cruikshank were the Stouffville marksmen.
Coach Watson attempted to pull the contest out of the fire in the late minutes of the third period but a rash of penalties put a serious crimp in his last-ditch offensive plans. Picton counted their fifth goal while Stouffville had two men in the cooler. Tip Vipond Harold Hodgson and Phil Nicholas were Stouffville’s best. Goalie Geo. Wilkins played well and couldn’t be blamed for the Clipper setback. Claude Carr in the Picton cage was equally keen. He was pelted with pucks in the first frame but yielded only one goal. HAYLOW COLLECTS 76 POINTS FOR SEASON RECORD
Francis Haylow collected a record 85 points throughout the regular Peewee (Bantam) schedule and playoffs his total comprised 73 goals and 12 assists. During the regular schedule the centre ice star fired
65 goals and picked up 9 assists. In three playoff contests he collected an additional 8 goals and 3 assists.

In regular games he fired 52 goals and picked up 9 assists. In playoff games he netted 12 tallies and assisted on 3. Bill Corner also finished in a runners-up position.

For the stouffville management, players and a multitude of faithful followers, the loss was a heartbreaking experience. The tension mounted as the minutes ticked by in the final period. At the buzzer,
Stouffville were pressing their attack around the Shallow Lake net, but couldn’t get a direct drive on the visitor’s cage. Stouffville exemplified the fine sportsmanship that has highlighted the entire series, by quickly congratulating the visitors. In a brief moment of mid-ice jubilation, Shallow Lake pucksters mobbed their pint-sized goaltender, Terry Kellar. Although for the moment he possibly held the championship spotlight, at the other end of the rink his rival goal-guardian Glenn Jackson was the real hero of the game and the series. Even in defeat his performance was sensational. He turned aside a total of 47 shots. Kellar handled only 14. Never in any league, in any season, has any goaltender received such vociferous praise. Goalie Jackson assumed almost every bone-bending pose known to the profession. Especially keen with his glove, the agile puckstopper pulled shot after shot out of the air. It was truly a remarkable performance. In such a crucial contest, it is difficult to select any one player as
an outstanding star. Jim Kellar paced the Shallow Lake attack with two goals. Cam Millman and Bob Adams notched singles. Adam’s tally at 5:15 of the last period proved to be the winner. It was his 107th
goal of the season. Aside from goaltender Jackson, defenceman Stan Feasby was one of Stouffville’s top performers. He played almost the entire sixty minutes. In addition to blocking many determined forward line rushes, he scored one goal and set up another. Jim Knox, Warren Hendricks and Barry McLean played well. For some unknown reason, Bob Lusk, a lanky six-footer was ejected into the Shallow Lake net at the start of the game. It took rightwinger Jim Knox of Stouffville only one minute and thirty seconds to park the puck behind him. Less than two minutes later leftwinger Brian Wilkes
dented the mesh but the tally was called back on an offside. Lusk made a hasty exit to the player’s box. Kellar took over his duties. The switch seemed to give the visitors new life and they cashed in for
two goals. Jim Kellar was the marksman. Stouffville had few opportunities to add to their one-goal total in the first period. They had only three direct shots on the net. Barry McLean came close but Kellar made a fine stop on his pointblank shot. At the other end of the rink, Stouffville netminder Glenn Jackson blocked 16 pucks. In the early minutes of the second period, Adams, an always dangerous
performer broke in on the Stouffville net. Goalie Jackson rose to the occasion and grabbed his rifle shot with his gloved left hand. During a skirmish around the Stouffville cage, Cam Millman of Shallow Lake
backhanded a loose puck into the corner. Jackson’s view was blocked on the shot. Shallow Lake continued to dominate the play and outshot the homesters 13-7. The third period saw stouffville go all-out in an effort to pull the game out of the fire. Their hopes received a big lift when defenceman Stan Feasby blasted a blueline shot into the Shallow Lake net. This tally was nullified when Bob Adams slapped a rebound past goalie Jackson. as the Stouffville netminder was sprawled facedown on the
ice. At 814 Stouffville captain, Warren Hendricks brought the huge crowd to its feet when he fired Stan Feasby’s rebound into the twine. For the remaining eleven minutes, the air in the arena was electric
with excitement. Fans urged the local team on as the seconds and minutes ticked by. Warren Hendricks had two chances to even the count but he was stopped both times by goalie Kellar. Jackson continued his fine play. He stopped 18. Kellar blocked 4. In the dying minutes, coach Hal Gibson threw five forwards into the fray. Jim Knox, Warren Hendricks, Brian Wilkes, Barry McLean and Roger Forsyth formed the locals power play. They failed to score. At the final whistle, Stouffville were swarming around the Shallow Lake net. The game, the series and the season were over. CLIPPERS WHIP PICTON 6-2; ENTER SEMI-FINALS
Jack Watson’s Stouffville Clippers earned the right to enter the Ont. semifinal playoffs following their 6-2 victory over Picton on Saturday night. Their next opponents will be Walkerton. Bracebridge and
Dundas are battling in the other series. The winners will square off for the all-Ontario Intermediate ‘B’ championship. Two Stouffville rearguards, Russ Forfar and Mel Vale turned in their best two-way efforts of the season. They collected 3 of the Clippers 6 tallies. Vale fired a pair and Forfar notched one. Mel Vale one of the “goats” in a previous contest was one of the teams top performers in Saturdays tilt. he raced up and down the ice at top speed and came close to scoring a hat trick. Team mate Forfar was
equally strong. His bullet shot to the top corner of the Picton cage midway through the first period deadlocked the score and started the Clippers rolling into the Ontario semifinals. Picton goal-guardian Claude Carr was peppered with pucks. In every period he turned aside a total of 51 shots. Six went past him. In the final frame when Stouffville knifed through the Picton defences almost at will, Carr blocked 19 shots. He stopped 15 in the first period and 17 in the second session. At the other end of the ice, his
rival, Geo. Wilkes was not overworked. He handled only 15 pucks in the whole 60 minutes. A rash of foolish penalties which put a serious crimp in the Picton attack. Mulholland, Scott and Jacklin were banished minutes apart. Hardly had Scott returned to the ice when charged into Clipper forward
McDowell and sent him sprawling. He made a hasty return to the sin-bin. There 23 penalties in the contest 13 to Picton and 10 to Stouffville. Aside from the three goals by defenceman Mel Vale and Russ Forfar, three other blinked the light for the winners. Pete Lacey hit the target at 3:46 of the second period passes from Tip Vipond and Phil Nicholas. Bruce McDowell and Phil Nicholas fired third period goals. Menard and Mulholland were the Picton marksmen. Howard Forgie, after a rather slow early-game start gained momentum in the latter stages and picked up on both tallies fired by Vale. Late in the third period, he broke in alone on the Picton cage but his shot was blocked. Phil Nicholas had an excellent opportunity to light the lamp in the second frame, but his drive was also turned aside. Harold Hodgson caromed a shot off the goal post. More than 700 fans watched the game, the season’s largest crowd. Although the game did not pack the excitement of some earlier contests, the victory was important win for Stouffville. LEAF SCOUT AT BANTAM PLAYOFFS
Mr. Bob Davidson a former Maple Leaf forward, and now a scout for the Toronto chain, attended both playoff games here between Stouffville and Shallow Lake Bantams. Leaf scouts usually attend all minor league championship finals with a hope of sighting a good hockey prospect. Davidson was especially interested in forward Bob Adams of Shallow Lake. Adams scored a total of 107 goals during the past season. The play of centre star Warren Hendricks and goalkeeper Glenn Jackson also
attracted the Leaf scout’s attention. Also in attendance was a scout for the Detroit Red Wings. Glenn
Jackson’s outstanding play between the pipes for Stouffville also caught his eye.

Tis week we are pleased to present our Sports Award to GRANT EDWARDS, hardworking rightwinger with the Intermediate Clippers a former high-scoring forward with the aurora Bel-Aires. The local speedster joined the Stouffville team this season to form a fast-stepping trio with Ted Vanderpol and Howard Bullock. In spite of his efforts, he has been plagued by bad luck throughout the majority of playoff contests. His inability to score has caused some concern with Coach Jack Watson. On Friday night he snapped out of his slump in a big way. He fired three goals and picked up one assist for a fine two-way effort. Skating at top speed every time out, the local winger came very close on a number
of occasions to adding to his total. Although sidelined for one game he will no doubt continue to patrol the right wing position if he can continue the excellent performance he displayed on Friday. To GRANT
EDWARDS of the Clippers we are pleased to present two admission tickets to the PARK THEATRE, Stouffville compliments of Messrs. Ted Topping and Harold Spofford. ENCROACHMENT
I noticed with much interest last week that Mr. Bruce Erskine, chairman of the Goderich Peewee tournament stated rather emphatically that in future no girls would be permitted to take part in the
tourney. Although his chances of gaining criticism on the ruling are rather slim since only a few girls actually take an active part in the sport, such a ban should be given considerable study.
It is a known fact that girl participants in the Goderich tournament certainly add considerably interest to games in which they take part. Watford iced a club with an all-girl forward line. Mr. Erskine presented a rather feeble excuse in explaining the proposed ban. He said that the officials feared the girls might be injured. Those closest to Peewee ranks know that the majority of lads couldn’t break a pane of glass with their shots. With the proper equipment the likelihood of injury is rather slim. Sports like any other field, is gradually being invaded by our female counterparts and like everything else although we may object there is little we can do about it. The most embarrassing thing about this encroachment is that in some cases the girls and ladles often outclass the boys and men. For this reason, officials should be careful about what they ban and what they permit. Who knows we might develop a female “Rocket” Richard or Gordie Howe. Turning to the local sports front, girls in the community have shown little or no interest in taking an active part in hockey. Competition broomball is perhaps the closest they have come to our all-male game. There is no reason to think however that they are not physically able to compete in the sport. Some of our best figure and speed skaters are girls. Give them a hockey stick and puck and anything could happen. Some of our local girl softballers are as good if not better than boys
of a similar age group. Gwenn Kennedy is perhaps one of the best. She can throw bat and field a ball as good as the majority of teenage boys. In this town Helen Hassard, Marg Schell, Donna Lewis, Eleanor
Sproxton, Marg and Pat Smith have been equally fine competitors to mention only a few. Today, the nameplate, “Miss” or “Mrs.” doesn’t mean a thing either in the field of sport or business life. Female participation, in hockey, is more difficult than in other sports since to date only a few are interested; hence they must compete with and against the boys. This is not the case in golf, tennis, softball etc., where each is placed in her own separate class. I feel however that the matter should receive some broadminded thought. Rather than banning competitors, I believe, they should be encouraged to participate. Times have changed and are changing. Girls are no longer mechanical dish-washers, floor-sweepers, and clothes-pressers. Move over men.

This week we are pleased to present our Sports Award to one of this town’s most ardent sports promoters MR. L.E. “TIM” O’NEILL. Looking back through our Tribune files we note that “TIM” has been an ardent supporter of both hockey baseball and softball teams here for many years. Working behind the scenes he has possibly failed to gain the recognition that he justly deserves. In past seasons his car has transported more players over more miles than any other vehicle in town. Coaches and managers have always respected his advice. He has always been one of the first to dig down in his pocket and boost the sagging surplus of a clubs coffers. On Saturday, “Tim” received a small portion of his just deserts by winning a position on the OHA executive. I don’t believe the office could have been given to a more worthy contender for this promotion and for past services in the field of local sport we are pleased to present to MR. TIM O’NEILL of Stouffville two admission tickets to the PARK THEATRE. Stouffville compliments of Messrs. Ted Topping and Harold Spofford.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. DUNDAS SWEEPS INTERMEDIATE FINAL IN FOUR STRAIGHT
Dundas Mountain Views are the new Intermediate ‘B’ champions. They gained their coveted prize by beating the Stouffville Clippers in four straight games. Although the victors proved to be a more
polished contender there wasn’t a fan in the district who would admit that Jack Watson’s squad should have succumbed to the western crew in four successive contests. In every game, with the exception of the final tilt, Stouffville outshot their rivals by a wide margin. They lacked the art of putting the puck in the net. Dundas, on the other hand, were deadly around the Stouffville goal. They provided
puckstopper Geo. Wilkins with many anxious moments. Dundas netminder Grant Butler was equally keen but many shots were fired pointblank into his pads. Dundas rearguard Bill Searle was a standout performer. He blocked almost as many drives as goalie Butler and spearheaded many dangerous offensive attacks. Dundas whipped the Clippers 4-1 in Stouffville in the third game and posted a decisive 7-1 victory in Dundas on Friday. Pete Lacey notched the lone goal for the homesters here. Harold Hodgson blinked the light in the series final. It was the first and last goal of the game for Stouffville. The Clippers outshot Dundas 44-32 in the third contest.

The Whitby Dunlop’s may be Canada’s “Cinderella team” to thousands of supporters, but to the members of the Stouffville Lions Club sports committee, they are this town’s biggest hockey disappointment. The attendance of Bus Gagnon and Tom O”Connor at the minor hockey banquet
on Monday evening had been regarded as the highlight of a very successful winter sports programme. To the disappointment of the boys present not to speak of the committee members, the men failed to put in an appearance. Chairman Don Davis filled in the breach and camouflaged their absence in a very excellent manner. To date we have heard nothing regarding the reason for their non-presence. The date, time and place had been checked and double-checked with our local
management. Who was to blame for the slip-up, no one knows. If the players failed to keep the engagement it was certainly the worst type of public relations. An apology by telephone might to a certain extent help to ease the resentment that their absence caused.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. HONOUR MINOR HOCKEY WINNERS AT LIONS NITE
The PeeWee, PeeWee (Bantam) and Bantam hockey teams were honoured at a banquet sponsored by the Stouffville Lions Club on Monday night. Coach Trace Woodward introduced the members of his champion PeeWee “Red Wings”. The Alf Mole Memorial trophy was presented to Captain
Ronnie Castle by Mr. Lloyd Turner. Coach Bud Lehman introduced his champion PeeWee (Bantam) “Canadiens”. Cap’t Francis Haylow received the Jim Austin trophy. It was presented by Mr. Austin. Messrs. Fred Jemmett and Geo. Beazley presented crests to the boys. Mr. Keith Sutherland, coach the Bantams introduced the members of his club. Cap’t Warren Hendricks received the Vice Presidents trophy from Mr. J. Austin, OMHA Executive Member. Mr. Don Davis, chairman of the Lions Sports Committee was of Master of Ceremonies. He introduced all the coaches in Stouffville minor hockey program, including Messrs. Ed Dawson, Lorne Boadway, Trace Woodward and Jim Thomas (PeeWee); Don Haynes Jake Harmon, Lloyd Jennings and Bud Lehman (PeeWee Bantam); Bill Nicholls and Coaches Hal Gibson and Keith Sutherland of the Bantams. Don Haynes and Lloyd Jennings were
not present. Midget coach, Nick Bangay and Juvenile coach Bob Bangay were unable to attend. Juvenile manager Ken Wagg was present. League Secretary, Mr. Lloyd Turner received special mention for his
excellent work in compiling all PeeWee records. Mr. Turner has done this job for the past three seasons and has missed only three games. Capt. Francis Haylow of the Canadiens presented Bud Lehman with a gift for himself and his new bride. Chairman Don Davis praised the work of referee Glenn Byer. He was presented with a gift by Mr. Albert Smalley. Each member of the Bantam finalists will receive crests from the OMHA. Mr. Cec Hendricks presented the boys with a photograph of the World Champion Whitby Dunlops. Two members of the team, Bus Gagnon and Tom O’Connor, although scheduled to attend as special guests were not present. No reason has been given for their absence. Chairman Don Davis told the gathering that he was very pleased with Stouffville minor hockey year. He pointed out that it was the first time the town had ever reached the Ontario finals with a minor club. He said he hoped a local team might go all the way next season.

The Stouffville girl’s softball club has acquired one of the top- notch performers in the town to handle their coaching duties this summer. Doug “Peg” O’Neill, a former mound star in the Markham Twp.
loop and last season in the Claremont League has agreed to handle the reins this year. He attended a work-out in the park on Tuesday night. Twenty girls turned out for the initial practice session. The
majority were newcomers. A number of veterans are expected back including Mary Cole, Betty Brooks, Gwenn Kennedy, Dor- cen jams Marg Smith, Joan Raymer, Joyce Roberts, Helen Gayman, Audrey Murison and several others. According to manager Joan Raymer the team may not enter an organized league but take part in exhibition contests during the early part of the summer. They would later file entry in the Ontario playdowns. She informed the Tribune that the local team would have little trouble in engaging visiting clubs for exhibition contests. She said that it was almost impossible for the players to play games in outside parks that were not floodlit. A number of the girls work in Toronto and are unable to get to the games on time.

The Stouffville tennis club held its first meeting of the season on Monday at the tennis courts. An election for officers was held and new business discussed. The executive is as follows: President, Jerry
Waite; Vice pres., Bill Murphy; Secty- Treas., Shirley Fosdick ; Social Conveners, Marion Gostick and Marilyn Fosdick; Games Chairman, Walter Barkey; Press Reporter, Jim Rehill. The building of a fence on
the east side of the courts was discussed. It was hoped that outside assistance could be obtained for this venture. If funds were available a practice backboard would be put up at the rear of the courts. It is hoped eventually to have lights installed. Fees were set at two dollars for seniors, and one dollar for students. Monday night is to be set aside for beginners and Wednesday night for senior players. Instruction will be offered by senior members. There was a good turnout and already thirty names have been submitted for membership. So come on out and join the gang for tennis.

THREE TOURNAMENTS IN THREE DAYS
Three golf tournaments in three days, that was the record of local insurance agent, Ken Laushway last week. Mr. Laushway, who is a member of the Highlands Club at Aurora and possibly the most regular
golfer in the district, played in three separate tournaments last week, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
On Friday he was entered in the General Motors tournament at Cedar Brae as a guest; on Saturday he played in one of several annual Ontario amateur matches at Uplands, and on Sunday along with Mrs.
Laushway he competed in the couples tournament at his home club at Aurora. Mr. and Mrs. Laushway copped third prize in their handicap group in the Sunday affair. SOFTBALL TEAM ROUTED BY MARKHAM 22-18; 13-2
Stouffville’s softball team ran into a stonewall of pitching. Fielding and batting prowess in their home and home engagement with Markham on Thursday and Tuesday nights in the opener of the two game series. Markham racked up a 22-8 win and in the return tilt the Aces registered a one-sided 13-2 victory.
It was an arm-weary Jack Rumney that laboured through nine innings of softball at Markham on Thursday. The Victoria Square righthander hurled three good innings and his mates held a 5-2 lead going into the bottom half of the third. Markham rallied to even the count and turned a scheduled game into a routine batting practice. In the remaining five innings Markham bunched together 13 hits, 6
walks and aided by numerous costly errors rolled up a convincing win. Ab Townson worked seven innings on the mound for the Aces. He was clipped for 8 hits. Bruce Middleton took over and finished the game. He allowed only one safety and registered one strike out. Clare Fockler was Stouffville’s best batsman pounding out a pair of doubles. Herb Rose and Jack Rumney each bagged a double and a single. Watson belted a two-base blow. Markham tagged Rumney’s for 4 circuit clouts. Monte Holman hit two round-trippers. Jim Raymer and Ab Townson each collected one 4-base blow. In addition, Raymer and Townson each hit a double and a single. Terry Lunau rounded the sacks in the fifth inning on an outfield error. Jack Watson pulled off the most spectacular solo play of the game when he grabbed Morris Procenko’s line drive in his bare hand Markham 13, Stouffville 2 “Peg” O’Neill handled the hurling chores for Stouffville on Tuesday night and twirled good ball against his former mates. Markham pushed seven runs across the plate in the seventh inning to sew up the contest. The locals gave their pitcher rather weak support and committed no less than 9 errors. Stouffville notched a single run in the fourth and one in the seventh. Jack Rumney connected for a single and romped home on geo. Stark’s hit and a two-base outfield error. Jack Watson singled and later stole home on a wild pitch. Ab Townson went the distance on the hill for Markham. Bob Petch completed the battery. He gave up only six hits. Jack Rumneys pair of hits was Stouffville’s best plate performance. Geo. Stark, “Peg” O’Neill, Herb Rose and Jack Watson connected for single safeties. Two Markham rookies, Bob Atkinson and Al Tidsbury each collected a pair of hits. Jim Raymer slammed a round-tripper.

BROTHERS WIN MEET
Two brothers walked off with individual championships on Monday at the Stouffville Public School’s annual field meet. Randy Mole, 9, and brother Robert, 12, captured the Junior and Intermediate honours respectively. Randy racked up a fine record of four firsts and one second for a total of
23 points. His name will be inscribed on the Village of Stouffville trophy. Robert Mole collected a similar number of ribbons for 23 points. His name will be engraved on the Ladies Auxiliary trophy. It
is the first championships for either boy. Fourteen year old Glenn Jackson was the meets top athlete with 32 points. His total comprised four firsts and four seconds. Clara Mullen, a repeat performer, retained the Senior girls honours with 23 points. Eleven year old Pat Toole proved to her rivals that she hadn’t lost any of her athletic ability in the past year. The Junior champ in ’57, Pat came back to capture the Intermediate award on Monday with three firsts and one second for 18 points. In the jJunior girls
class, Donna Knox ran and jumped her way to her first field meet championship. Collecting a total of 21 points, Donna was a worthy winner of the Women’s Institute Trophy. A formal presentation of the
awards will be made on Tuesday evening June 24th at the Public Schools annual musical concert.
Through the cooperation of the staff members the students and other interested parties the events were run off on schedule.

BANTAMS WHIP THORNHILL 8-2 IN OPENER Wilf McWhinnie’s Stouffville Bantams thumped Thornhill 8-2 last week in the opening game the North York League. A grand slam home run from the bat of John Roxborough decided the contest. Brian Wilkes hurled four fine innings for the winners. Glenn Jackson took over in relief and finished the game. Jim Miller completed the battery. Aside from southpaw Jackson, Coach McWhinnie has three hurlers ready for service when the occasion arises. Brian Wilkes, Barry McLean and Warren Hendricks will share the mound chores this season. Glenn Jackson, although still able to play in Bantam ball, may be boosted into Midget class to strengthen Don Haynes’ pitching staff. Marvin Betz will also handle the decker with Jim Miller. Stouffville have been placed in a group with Newmarket, Richmond Hill, Aurora, Thornhill and Bradford. The latter squad may pull out, however, due to a lack of player strength. Stouffville will play their home contests on Monday nights. MARKHAM RALLY BEAT CARDS 8-7 IN JUNIOR OPENING GAME
A free pass and a hit batsman came home to haunt Stouffville righthander Harry Barber on Thursday night of last week. The Cardinals held a 7-6 lead over Markham in the fourth inning of a scheduled North York Junior baseball tilt. Going into the top half of the fifth, Markham’s Mike Pettit received a base on balls. Pettit moved down to second when Bob Atkinson was clipped by a pitch. Josh
Middleton belted a triple into deep centrefield to push the frontrunners across with the tying and game-winning tallies. Markham held a 6-2 lead as Stouffville came to the plate in the bottom half of the fourth inning. Eric Barber moved down to first when hit by a wild pitch and first-sacker Gord Eckardt poled a 300 foot clout over the centrefield fence to clear the sacks. With one out, Lawrence Wideman’s infield grounder was bobbled and he reached first safely. Ted Suzuki walked and Ross Madill blasted a double into left field to even the score. Madill romped home on Harry Barber’s single to give Stouffville a brief one-run edge. Markham turned the loss into a win in the fifth. Both clubs used a pair of pitchers. Murray Holden started on the hill for the Cards. He worked three and two-thirds innings. He was clipped for 4 hits. He walked 4 and struck out 2. Harry Barber took over in relief and finished the game. In one and one-third innings, he gave up 1 hit. He walked 2 and registered 3 strike outs. Dave
Webb was the Markham starter. He lasted three and two-thirds innings. He allowed 4 hits, walked 1 and struck out 3. Mike Pettit gained credit for the Markham win. In one and one-third innings he allowed 1 hit, walked 1 and struck out 3. Ross Madill belted a pair of doubles for Stouffville’s best plate
performance. Harry Barber clouted a two-bagger and a single. Gord Eckardt’s circuit smash was a tremendous clout that landed out on the roadway outside the outfield playing area. Don Haynes and Ted Suzuki connected for singles. Don “Josh” Middleton’s triple was Markham’s best hit. Jim Johnson
bagged a double. Lawrence Gayman, Mike Pettit and Bob Atkinson tapped out a single-base hits. STOUFFVILLE HORSESHOE CLUB
Stouffville’s horseshoe tossing enthusiasts are planning to form a league for the season. Qualifying will start this week and will continue until June 18. High and low qualifiers will be partners in a double round-robin series. League games will be played every Friday night commencing June 20th. Anyone wishing to join the club should contact Mr. W. Slack at Stouffville, 37w3.

BANTAMS EDGE NEWMARKET 8-7 WITH THREE HITS
Wilf McWhinnies Bantams chalked up a close 8-7 win over Newmarket in a scheduled N. York game played here on Monday evening. Although the local squad could scrape together only three hits, they took advantage of nine Newmarket errors to roll up a good lead. Warren Hendricks, the Stouffville starter on the mound, weakened in the seventh and gave way to relief twirler Barry McLean. McClean put out the fire. Hendricks struck out three rival batsmen. McClean whiffed one. Wilf Ludlam whacked a triple into the deep outfield in his first trip to the plate. He was later ejected from the game by the base official when he objected too strenuously to a ruling by the umpire. Norm Galbraith returned to the Bantam and collected two safeties. He performed at first base. Francis Haylow and Wayne Hamilton battled gale force winds to pull in a number of dangerous fly balls. The winers committed only three errors. Stouffville journeys to the County Town for a return tilt on Thursday of this week. GIRLS TEAM ROUT R. HILL WITH 30-HIT ATTACK
Stouffville girls chalked up a one-sided 35-19 victory over Richmond Jill in a scheduled softball contest staged under the lights on Wednesday night of last week. It was the season’s opening game. Although the winners bunched together 30 hits, they were aided by some rather loose infield play by the opposition. Richmond Hill players committed no less than 17 errors in the seven inning tilt.
Stouffville had seven miscues. Coach “Peg” O’Neill used 3 members of his pitching staff in the
contest. Joan Raymer started and worked four innings. Doreen Jarvis took over in the 5th and Audrey Murison handled the mound chores in the sixth. Joan Raymer returned to the hill and finished the game. Carol Seegar laboured through the entire seven innings for the homesters. Stouffville’s first-sacker, Loraine Holdsworth turned in a power-packed performance at the plate. Batting in the seventh
position the agile slugger belted six singles and a double in seven trips to the plate. Audrey Murison poked out the longest balls. She connected for a double in the fourth and a triple in the sixth. In
addition she rapped a single through the infield in her final turn at bat. Doreen Jarvis and Joan Raymer each bagged out four hits, all single-base blows. Mavis Trunk, Betty Brooks and Marion Gayman each
had three safeties. Joan Gayman had two hits. Joyce Roberts and Marie Leeman whacked out single blows. Richmond Hill’s Ann Hayes was the homesters best with a pair of doubles and 3 singles. Peggy Hopkins belted a circuit clout and connected for a pair of singles. Richmond Hill scored seventeen of
their nineteen run total in the filth and sixth innings. Joan Raymer returned to the Stouffville mound and put out the fire. The Hill threatened to add to their total in the seventh, however, when a walk
to Josha Bonchanasky and a single by Carol Seegar put runners on first and second. The Hill’s long- ball hitter, Peggy Hopkins rapped a drive to the box which was turned into a double play. Pitcher Joan
Haynes fired to Mavis Trunk at second who in turn relayed the ball to first sacker Loraine Holdsworth to end the attempted rally and the game. The schedule has been temporarily disrupted due to high school and public school examinations. Thornhill and Aurora are also in the group. Stouffville will play their home games every Wednesday night commenting at 8 o’clock. CARDS BLANK NEWMARKET 11-0, BARBER HAS TWO-HITTER
A towering two-run circuit clout from the bat of Stouffville first-sacker, Gord Eckardt helped the Junior Cardinals to their second straight victory over Newmarket in the North York League schedule. The local squad blanked the County Town crew 11-0 here on Thursday night. Eckardt’s blast over the centrefield fence came in the 4th inning. Harry Barber was parked on base and romped home ahead of the long-ball slugger. The four base blow climaxed a six run, six hit inning that sewed up the Stouffville win.
Righthander Harry Barber coasted through the five inning tilt. He gave up only two hits, both in the fourth stanza. He whiffed 11 Newmarket batsmen and issued no free passes. Don Haynes completed the battery. John McKnight and Sam Jefferson shared the mound chores for the visitors. Eric Barber, a newcomer to the local ranks, performed well at the plate and belted three singles in three official times at bat. Eckardt continued his prolific hitting spree with a home run and a double. Don Haynes poked out a single and a double. Ross Madill bagged a pair of singles and rookie Wayne Pennanen connected for two safeties. Glenn Jackson, a Bantam-age recruit, saw action in Thursdays contest when outfielder Lawrence Wideman crushed a finger on a sacrifice bunt. Wideman’s hand required medical attention. ATHLETES BREAK 24 RECORDS AT PUBLIC SCHOOL MEET
Twenty-four records were broken at the annual Stouffville Public School field meet held last week. Thirteen previous records were snapped by girl competitors while the boys broke 11 previous marks. Clara Mullen, the agile senior girl’s champion topped the record-breakers with a total of four. Robt. Mole, Jim Knox and Karen Hamilton each set two new marks. Single records were broken by Donna Knox, Raymond Rioux, Philip Arundel, Randy Mole, Donald Smith, Gale Cossey, Louise Gordon, Pat Toole, Charlotte Buckland, Jim Malloy, Bill Corner, Sharon McLean and Glenn Jackson. Records still unbroken were set by athletes in 1956 and 57. Carol Kennedy’s two marks in the running broad jump and the hop, step and jump, still holds from ‘56 in the Junior girls rank. Robert Mole’s 10’9” in the ‘56 running broad jump is still unbroken. As an Intermediate, N. Tindall’s 26’11 1/2” still stands in the hop,step and jump from ’56. In the Senior ranks, Gary Byer and Gary Baston registered marks that
still hold from 1956. Gary Byer’s 15’2” running broad is still tops and Gary Baston’s 31’9” hop, step and jump has never been beaten. The senior shot put class was entered for the first time this year. Competitors in future years may find it difficult to beat Peter Stover’s first year mark of 37’8”.

by Jim Thomas POWERFUL AGGREGATION
Although much emphasis is placed on the of male baseball entries, the strength of our local girls’ club should not be underestimated. This aggregation is probably one of the most potent ladies teams that has been fielded here in many seasons. At the conclusion of last year’s girls softball activities, it
appeared likely that Stouffville would drop out of further competition when another summer rolled around. Much to our surprise there appears to be renewed interest within their ranks. “Peg” O’Neill’s decision to make Stouffville his permanent home has been a boon to girls’ softball here. The local mound ace came to the rescue of the team and is doing an excellent job. We do not envy him his position. Those closest to sport know that handling a girls’ club is probably the most difficult task that one could undertake. Many girls, if not handled with kid gloves, will take offense and quit at a m moment’s notice. The local ladies appear to respect their coach’s softball know-how and have given him every co-operation in every game to date. The club has had more than adequate bench strength. Coach O’Neill has given each girl a fair opportunity to prove her worth and no players have been allowed to sit on the bench game after game and not be used for at least one or two innings. This is probably one of the main reasons for the noticeable harmony in their ranks. The main difficulty that the local entry has had has been a lack of district opposition. In one league game, Stouffville humbled Richmond Hill 35-19. Their Yonge Street rivals won a group championship last season. All pre-scheduled games have been cancelled since this contest and the homesters have resorted to exhibition games instead. They plan to enter their team in the Provincial playoffs. There’s no denying the fact these girls play to win. A determined group, they can hit, run and field like a bunch of boys or perhaps better than their male counterparts. With the approach of the summer vacation period, the squad will be weakened somewhat but other girls, their noses embedded in grade 12 and 13 examination papers during the
past few days, will return to fill any vacancies that might develop. This entry is worthy of your support. They perform under the lights every Wednesday night.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. GIRLS TEAM DEFEAT CECIL MORRIS JUNIORS 9-3 IN EXHIBITION GAME
Righthander Joan Raymer scattered six hits as Stouffville’s girls softball team chalked up 9-3 win over Cecil Morris of Toronto. The exhibition game was played under the lights on Wednesday evening of
last week. Coach “Peg” O’Neill hopes to arrange similar games every Wednesday night until the local club advances into the Provincial playoffs. Although the visitors tossed the ball around with extreme agility prior to the game, their infield appeared a trifle shaky during the early innings of the contest. In nine innings they committed a total of ten errors. Many of their fumbles occurred in the second inning and allowed Stouffville to collect three runs. The visitors appeared to settle down in the latter stages of the game and the homesters were held off the score sheet in the sixth seventh and eighth. The Cecil Morris infielders attempted to scoop up many routine ground balls with a single gloved hand, only to have the ball slip through for extra bases. All nine Stouffville runs were unearned. A colourful aggregation in their short skirts and yellow sweaters, the Toronto visitors appearance far over-shadowed their play. As was the case in a previous game at Richmond Hill, Stouffville’s Loraine Holdsworth paced the winners at the plate. She whacked out two safeties both singles and romped home with a pair of runs. She was also safe on an infield error in the second inning. Pitcher Joan
Raymer clouted the only extra-base blow for the local team. She belted a double in the fifth. Other hits came from the bats of Joyce Roberts, Audrey Murison, Lavar Machan and Donna Seebeck. There was little to choose between the two teams in the hit department. Stouffville had 7 safeties. Cecil Morris counted six. Stouffville were never in serious trouble since righthander Joan Raymer kept the oppositions hits spaced to not more than one per inning. Jerry Wild-man went the distance on the mound for the Toronto visitors. Rightfielder Bev Fournier pounded out a home run and a single for the losers, best plate performance. All other safeties were limited to single base. Stouffville left no less than 9 players stranded on the base paths. On two occasions they were retired with the bases loaded. In the
second inning Marion Gayman was safe on an error. Audrey Murison and Loraine Holdsworth followed with singles. With only one out Lavar Machan popped out to shallow right field and Donna Seebeck sent a short fly ball into the second baseman’s waiting glove. In the eighth inning, Doreen Jarvis and Lavar Machan received bases on balls. Joyce Roberts singled to once again load up the sacks. With two out, Donna Seebeck grounded out short to first to retire the side. Cecil Morris marooned seven players. Catcher Doreen Jarvis turned in a good game behind the plate for Stouffville. She picked off two players at second on attempted steals and was responsible for another putout at home. She tossed the bail to pitcher Joan Raymer who made the play at home.
June 26 1958 (con’t) CARDINALS EDGE MARKHAM 3-2 IN THRILLING GAME
Murray Stewart’s Junior Cardinals squeezed out a tight 3-2 win over Markham in a scheduled North York baseball game played here on Thursday evening of last week. The Stouffville win evened their home
record with Markham on the season’s play to date. Markham gained an 8-7 victory in an earlier contest.
Toss-Up There was little to choose between the two teams. Markham jumped into a one run lead in the first inning only to have the Cards bounce back with a pair in the third. Bob Atkinson’s squad rallied to tie the score in the top half of the sixth, but Stouffville pushed the winner across in their final trip to the plate. Two to One Righthander Harry Barber, the Cards “junk” pitcher was in fine form for Thursday’s game. He went the route on the mound for Stouffville and held the Markham batsmen to three hits. He registered nine strike outs and walked one. Dave Webb was the visitor’s starter. He was relieved by Mike Pettit in the third. Webb worked two complete innings. He was clipped for 3 hits. He struck out one and walked one. Mike Pettit finished the contest and twirled four innings. He allowed 2 hits, walked one and fanned five local batsmen. Ends with Error An infield error on Ted Suzuki’s ground ball allowed the winning run to cross the plate for the Cardinals. Harry Barber literally won his own ball game when he opened the sixth inning with a single. He proceeded to steal second and advanced to third on Wayne Redshaw’s sacrifice. A Stouffville victory appeared unlikely when Lawrence
Wideman went down on strikes with two out. Ted Suzuki laced a ground ball at third-sacker “Debbie” Gayman. In attempting to scoop up the ball with his gloved hand it evaded his reach and rolled out into left field. Barber romped home on the error and the game was over. Suzuki Best Ted Suzuki regained his mid- season batting form and collected a pair of hits. He laced singles through the infield in the first and third innings. He was a strikeout victim in the fifth and was safe on an error in the sixth. Gord Eckardt, Don Haynes and Harry Barber bagged singles. Jim Johnson pulled the only extra base hit of the game. The Markham second baseman rifled a double into centrefield in the sixth inning and later crossed the plate on Mike Pettit’s single-base blow. Bob Atkinson poked out the other Markham safety, a single in the first. Double Play Stouffville pulled off a sparkling double play in the fifth inning to
halt a threatened Markham rally. Don Middleton was hit by a pitched ball but Geo. Christopher was a strikeout victim. Dave Webb drove the ball to Ted Suzuki at short who flipped to Eric Barber at second to nab Middleton. Barber in turn fired to Eckardt on first to catch Webb. Newmarket Here Newmarket will be the visitors here on Thursday evening of this week. In a previous home and home encounter with the Canaltown crew, Stouffville took the opener handily 11-0 but lost 1-0 at Newmarket on Tuesday of last week. With the completion of High School examinations, both clubs will be back to full strength. BANTAMS BEAT RICHMOND HILL 5-2 FOR 5TH TIME
Stouffville’s Bantam club ran their undefeated string to five straight games on Monday night. In their home park they handed Richmond Hill their initial loss of the season with a 5-2 win. Warren Hendricks started on the mound for Stouffville and worked three innings. Lefthander Glenn Jackson took over in relief and finished the seven inning contest. Richmond Hill’s pitcher had trouble finding the plate on a number of occasions and issued numerous walks.

LOCAL ARENA COMPANY SHAREHOLDERS‘ MEETING SHOW GOOD FIN. YEAR
Though fewer than a handful of shareholders turned out on Monday night for the annual meeting of the Stouffville Arena Company, the company’s annual report revealed a good financial year. The mortgage on the arena and ice plant, it is fully expected, will be completely paid off next year. The amount of the indebtedness when the arena was erected just eight years ago was $20,000, later increased with the installation of the floor in the building. That such a mortgage has been reduced to within one year of liquidation in eight years is quite gratifying to the shareholders. Receipts this year totalled over $29,000, including $5,331.05 profit from the snack bar which grossed better than $12,000. Largest source
of revenue was the renting of ice time which brought the company $12,888.60. Skating and the operation of the Clipper hockey club revenue brought in almost identical amounts, approximately $3,500 each. The Toronto hockey League paid $1,714.00 and rentals from the floor in the summer to nearly a thousand dollars. No new operations are planned for the summer or coming winter. The Maple Leaf Garden’s wrestlers will commence their shows this month and it is expected the ice will return to the arena the fore part of October. The complete slate of 1957 directors was returned for the coming year, headed by Mr. Les Wilson, president. The other members of the executive are as follows: vice president, Gar Lehman; secretary-treas. Lloyd Turner; directors, Erle Lehman, Les Clarke, Herb Hisey and Fred Steckley. It was interesting to note on the company’s financial report that the arena paid into the town coffers last year, a total of over $3000 made up of municipal taxes, hydro and water, making the arena one of the largest contributors to town financing in the municipality. SQUIRT PLAYERS TO SEE STADIUM GAME
On Monday evening, July 14, all players in Stouffville’s Squirt baseball league will be transported to Maple Leaf Stadium to watch a scheduled game between Toronto and Buffalo. It is expected that close
to 50 boys will attend. Arrangements for the trip have been completed by Messrs. Bob Hassard, Ted Cadieux, Lorne Boadway, Gary Grundy and Wilf McWhinnie. Parents should note that there will be ample supervision both to and from Toronto and at the stadium. The baseball lads will meet in the Memorial Park on Monday evening at 6 o’clock. Cars will be available to transport the boys to the game. SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas WHOLESALE DESTRUCTION
The appearance of our grandstand in the Memorial Park is a rather deplorable sight. It is a sorry state of affairs when both adults and children show so little regard for public property as to transform it into its present mutilated condition. Local and visiting ball players continually use the stand as a warmup backstop. The dents in the metal certainly speak well for their accuracy. One section has a gaping hole almost one foot in width. In spite of repeated warnings by police and park attendants, players continue to pound and batter the stand to ribbons. It should not be necessary to issue repeated warnings in order to halt such wholesale destruction. Although the grandstand was a gift to the town, it cost money, plenty of money, and such treatment should not be taken lightly by the Park Board. While other towns beg and borrow in order to obtain such to erect such up-to-date facilities, our portsmen appear to have a wanton urge to destroy our modern structures. Surely don’t have to post a full-time guard in the park
in order keep things in order. Warning placards should not even necessary. It would take armor-plate siding to withstand the that our grandstand has been subjected to within the few seasons. Let’s treat
our park property with respect. It’s always easier to tear down than to build up. OUT OF MOTH BALLS
The report that Stouffville’s veteran Red Sox team will take their spikes and gloves out of moth balls for a one-night home stand, was indeed good news this week. These men, who brought much baseball
prominence to our town a few seasons back, have agreed to challenge the Junior Cardinals to an exhibition game. The exact date has not been announced, but you may be sure the contest will receive the necessary publicity it rightly deserves. The decision by the Red Sox to retire from active participation in organized baseball a few years ago, left a loophole our park programme that never has been adequately filled. I don’t believe that any town could boast a more potent roster of home talent to be compared with Bob Hassard’s entry. They took on all comers and defeated towns and cities more than five and six times the size of Stouffville. It wasn’t necessary for the Management to secure ringers from all corners of the County in order to field a winner. Every player came from within or on the borderline of the town. It is not necessary to rename these performers. Their names will go down into records of
Stouffville’s baseball history. It will be this same team that will re-appear again within next few weeks. The game will be a MUST for every fan in the district. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. “DODGERS” WIN SQUIRT LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP
The Dodgers, underdog finalists in the Stouffville Squirt Baseball League staged a surprising 11 run rally in the sixth inning on Thursday night to whip the Yankees 16-10. A fine crowd of supporters watched the championship contest. Fireballer Mike Cadieux, after a spree of wildness in the second inning, settled down to hurl fine ball for the Dodgers. He moved with monotonous regularity and registered a total of 17 strike outs. The hard-throwing southpaw had some difficulty in finding the plate on numerous occasions and gave up 12 walks. He allowed only 3 hits in the seven inning tilt. Kevin McWhinnie turned in a brief stint on the Dodger mound in the 2nd inning after starter Cadieux had allowed 4 successive bases on balls. The reliever was also a trifle wild but settled away to chalk up a pair of strike outs and retire the side. He allowed no hits walked three. Yankee moundsman Bill Lehman was coasting along on a five run lead until the fatal sixth inning. His arm tired and Coach Hassard brought in relief hurler Slack to put out the Dodger fire. When the situation worsened, Bill Lehman again took on the hill and finished game. Up until the sixth inning, the Dodgers could do very little at the plate. They had collected only 3 hits in five innings. They found their batting eyes in the sixth and pounded both Lehman and Slack for
seven safeties. Mike cadieux aided his own cause by belting a triple into the outfield. In the big 11 run rally, Rick Paisley, hitless in two official trips to the plate, clubbed a home run. Bill Lehman worked five and two-thirds innings for the Yanks. He was clipped for 9 hits, walked 6 and struck out 11. Dave Slack pitched one-third of an inning. He allowed 3 hits and walked 2 batters. Dodger catcher, Paul Stover was the top batsman for the champs. He whacked out three singles in four times at the plate. He was a strike out vic tim in the third inning. Centre- fielder Keith Betz displayed plenty of power with a single and a home run. Rick Paisley also slammed a four bagger. Mike Cadieux poled a triple. Other single
base blows came from the bats of Laurie Buckland, Kevin McWhinnie and Jim Foote. Only two Yankee players were able to connect for safe hits off lefty Mike Cadieux. Yank pitcher, Bill Lehman belted a pair of singles. Third sacker Bill Harmon tapped out the other hit. Many Yankee players reached first base on balls. Short stop Eugene Spofford received a walk on each of his four appearances at the plate. Catcher
Donald Smith, the Yankees cleanup batsman, had little opportunity to display his power at the plate. He was walked three times and hit on the hand by a wild pitch in his final turn at the bat. The majority
of the other players couldn’t cope with hurler Cadieux’s speed and were strike out victims. Bill Lennox called the balls and strikes at the plate Ted Cadieux officiated on the bases. Te jubilant Dodgers are Laurie Buckland, Billy Harmon, Keith betz, Paul Stover, Mike cadieux, Larry Foote, Jim Foote, Kevin McWhinnie and Rick Paisley. The team was coached by mr. Wilf McWhinnie. STOUFFVILLE TENNIS CLUB
Last Monday six members from the local tennis club took part in a tournament held at Newmarket Tennis Club. The competition was pretty keen with Stouffville coming out on the bottom of the ladder, but the members had a line social evening which more than made up for their defeats on the courts.
The local club hopes to have the Newmarket club down for a return match sometime in July. The local members taking part were Marg Curtis, Shirley Fosdick, John Marshall, John Mumford, Jim Rehill and
Jerry Waite. Keith Davis headed the Newmarket club.
July 3 1958 (con’t)
Markham and Stouffville renew their baseball rivalry here Thursday night of this week in a scheduled North York Junior contest. The Cardinals will attempt to square the series after losing two of three
previous games. Time has been set for 7 p.m. Down at Markham on Friday night, Bob Atkinson’s Red Sox whacked out a 7-5 win over Murray Stewart’s squad. The Markhamites collected their entire 7 run total in only two innings. They struck for 4 runs in the second and added three in the 3rd. They were hitless in the first fourth. Stouffville counted hits in every innings but couldn’t bunch together for a threatened rally. The Cards outhit the home club 8-7. Harry Barber went the on the Stouffville hill. Webb handled the hurling for the winners. Ross Madill uncorked a round for Stouffville’s best single blow of the game. Don Haynes belted a triple and Bob Stover clouted a three-bagger. Lead-off batsman Ted Suzuki poked out a double. Single base blows came from the bats of Harry Barber (2), Lynn Taylor and Wayne Redshaw. John Ross provided plenty of power at the plate for Markham tagging,
Barber for a double and a home run. Al Tidsbury banged out a double. Single safeties were hit by Dave Webb, Bob Atkinson, Don Middleton and Jim Johnson. Stouffville’s chances of chalking up a win i Friday’s tilt went out the window in the second inning. A pair of outfield errors were mainly responsible for a four run Markham rally. The Cards had jumped into a 2-0 lead going into the bottom half of the inning. In the third, a double by Tidsbury, a walk to Atkinson and John Ross’ round-tripper sewed up the victory for the southern rivals.

CARDS EDGE MARKHAM; HAYNES TWIRLS 4-HITTER
Don Haynes, Stouffville’s versatile hockey and baseball performer made, his debut as a pitcher on Thursday night and fired a brilliant four-hitter. Markham’s Red Sox were the victims of Haynes fast ball
as they dropped a close 4-3 decision to the Cardinals. The Stouffville win evened their four game set. Each club has registered two victories and suffered a pair of defeats. Works for Win It wasn’t an easy win for right hander Don Haynes. He found himself in trouble on at least three occasions but each time he managed to work out of the hole. In the second inning with Mike Pettit and Don Middleton on base, he breezed three strikes past Ron Graham and forced Geo. Carey to fly out to right field. It was the same story in the third inning but centrefielder John Little drifted back to the fence to nab Mike Pettit’s 300 foot drive. In the fourth, a hit batsman and a double set up a similar situation but Don Middleton grounded out short to first to retire the side. Plenty of Speed Hurler Haynes was dependent mainly on a blazing fast ball. He registered six strike outs. A minimum of curves and drops kept the Markham batters on their toes. The Stouffville moundsman had reasonably good control considering his brief experience. He issued three walks and clipped two batters. Ross Madill moved in from his
regular third base position to complete the battery. He, like Haynes turned in a fine performance.
Hits Bunched Stouffville bunched all their hits into two innings. A pair of singles and an error in the second collected one run. They added three more in the third on four hits. Mike Pettit, Markham’s agile mound ace, hurled hitless ball in the first. fourth and fifth. He lacked some of the skill that has plagued Stouffville batsmen in former contests, and issued five walks. All Singles Stouffville’s hits were all single-base blows. John Little rapped two safeties through the infield. Other drives came from the bats of Lynn Taylor, Ross Madill, Don Haynes and Harry Barber. Mike Pettit was Markham’s most potent plate power, whacking out a double and a single. “Debbie” Gayman and Al Tidsbury collected the other hits for the visitors. Jim Miller, Stouffville’s Bantam teams reliable catcher, suffered a broken collarbone
recently in a fall from his bicycle. The injury will sideline the local lad for a number of weeks. Marvin Betz is currently handling the decker for the local squad. WHITBY GIRLS EJECTED; TEAM THREATENS TO QUIT EXHIBITION GAME
A supposedly friendly fixture developed into a rather heated contest
on Wednesday night of last week as Stouffville ladies handed Whitby an
11-8 setback under the lights in the Memorial Park. The local girls
gained same revenge for their playoff defeat at the hands of the
County Town gals last season.
Player Ejected
Plate umpire Len Buckland, subjected to a rather unsavory comment from
the Whitby bench, immediately ejected one player from the game in the
eighth inning. The controversy developed during a threatened Whitby
rally. With two runs in and trailing 10-8, Whitby’s Shirley Stone was
a strikeout victim. The ball evaded the grasp of catcher Doreen
Jarvis and the batter charged down the line to first base. On the
throw to first-sacker Joan Lomax to nab the runner. Whitby’s Joan
Nicholson, parked on third, raced for the plate. Umpire Buckland
called Nicholson out on the throw from first to home.
Threaten to Quit
The Whitby coach and manager heatedly contested the umpire’s decision
and the players loudly protested the call. Following the ousting of
one player, the team threatened to quit. A consultation between
Stouffville coach Peg O’Neill, the Whitby manager smoothed out the
difficulty.
Use Two Pitchers
Both teams used two pitchers. Audrey Murison started on the mound for
Stouffville and hurled three complete innings. Joan Raymer took over
in relief and finished the contest. The Stouffville starter was
clipped for five hits. She walked 3 and struck out 1. Joan Raymer
allowed 7 safeties. She walked 1 and registered 3 strike outs.
Isobel Mothersill laboured through seven innings for Whitby. She gave
up 14 hits, walked 3 and struck out 2. Gwenn Campbell finished the
game. In one inning, she held Stouffville hitless. She walked 1 and
struck out 2.
Circuit Clout
Leadoff batter Doreen Jarvis belted Stouffville’s only home run. The
round-tripper came in the second inning with one mate aboard.i In
addition she connected for a single in the 7th and drove in two more
tallies. Although the homesters’ hits were held mainly to single base
blows, Loraine Holdsworth rapped a double into the outfield for the
locals’ only other extra base drive. Carol Perrow hammered a
four-bagger for Whitby. Betty Jordan tagged a triple. Doubles were
poked out by Isobel Eyman and Isobel
Mothersill.
Single Safeties
Almost every player on the Stouffville team connected for at least one
hit. Joan Raymer, Donna Seebeck and Mavis Trunk each collected a pair
of singles. Other safeties came from the bats of Audrey Murison, Gwen
Kennedy, Joan Lomax, Marion Gayman and Joyce Roberts.
Strong Defence
Marion Gayman turned in a strong defensive game at third base for
stouffville the local infielder perfected five putouts in the 7th
inning. She halted a threatened Whitby rally with a sparkling double
play. She grabbed a line drive from the bat of Isobel Mothersill and
fired to first-sacker Joan Lomax to pick off Carol Perrow.
Around the Order
Stouffville batted completely around the order in the seventh inning.
They pushed four runners across the plate and left two mates stranded.
Joan Lomax and Marion Gayman started the rally rolling with singles.
Betty Brooks infield grounder was bobbled to load up the sacks. It
appeared unlikely that the homesters wouldn’t chalk up a run when
Joyce Roberts flied out to left field and Mavis Trunk hit into a
fielders choice. Doreen Jarvis lashed a single through the infield to
score Gayman and Brooks and on an other infield error on Loraine
Holdsworth’s ground ball allowed two more to cross the plate. Whitby
never recovered to pull back on even terms. BOWLER WIN KAISER TROPHY
Amassing a score of 49 and a plus of 8, Elgin Wagg, Mrs M. Watts and
Earl Beare of Claremont and Stouffville won the E. Kaiser Trophy in
the mixed trebles tournament at the Oshawa Lawn Bowling Club on
Dominion Day. A capacity entry of 32 teams took part in the three
games played during the afternoon and evening. They were drawn from
Whitby, Bowmanville, Port Perry, Hamilton, Cobourg, Claremont and
Stouffville as well as Oshawa.
Mervin Watts, Mrs. Earl Beare and Mrs. Elgin Wagg of Stouffville who
had a score of 46 and a plus of 11 won the prizes for one win. BANTAMS TRIM RICHMOND HILL 7-3
Wilf McWhinnle’s Bantam team chalked up a 7-3 win over Richmond Hill
in a scheduled North York contest here on Monday evening. John
Roxborough’s bat continues to
connect for important Stouffville safeties. He whacked out a pair of
hits in three trips to the plate. He is currently the club’s top
batsman with an average of .360. Norm Galbraith also had a fine night
at the plate with three hits. His average is .325. Brian Wilkes
started on the mound for the homesters and worked four innings. Glenn
Jackson finished the game.
Second baseman Wilf Ludlam suffered a sprained ankle when he stepped
on a first base peg. The injury sidelined the infielder for the
remainder of the contest. Ronnie Ludlam, a younger brother, took over
the position and performed well. He completed three fielding plays
and connected for a pair of hits. Marvin Betz completed the battery
replacing the injured Jim Miller SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas BELOW STANDARD
Although the Doug Laurie jJrs. competitors in the Leaside circuit
turned in a fine exhibition of baseball in the local park on Tuesday
night, I personally felt that their
performance fell far below the standard that one would expect of an
‘A’ class club. Our Cardinals could quite easily have upset the
favoured visitors. A couple of costly errors in the sixth inning
started their rally rolling and before it could be halted the contest
was in the bag.
I must admit that the fielding of the Leaside crew was excellent.
They handled their gloves like young pros and their throwing judgement
was letter perfect. I felt, however that there was much to be desired
in their hurling choice. Ken Lawrence displayed as much or more
wildness than any moundsman that has appeared here this season. For a
performer, who according to reports is already linked with the Maple
Leafs, he has much to learn. A temperamental type, on one occasion he
refused to take a throwback from his own catcher, and let the ball
roll out to second base. His mate in turn rolled it back. He issued
9 walks and hit two batters. Both Stouffville runs were walked in.
One thing in his favour, the Leaside hurler has speed, loads of it.
At times it appeared as if he was attempting to burn the ball through
his catcher, umpire Buckland and the backstop screen. On the majority
of occasions, however, the harder he threw the wilder he became.
The visitors were also somewhat disappointing at the plate. Until the
fatal sixth they were able to scrape only four hits off hurler Holden.
Many of the batsmen were completely baffled by both Holden and
Barber. For players, who supposedly face some of the best junior
twirlers in the business, they appeared rather weak. Perhaps its just
another case where our hometown club is underrated. Perhaps the Cards
could hold their own in the Leaside ‘A’ league. They didn’t appear to
be playing above their heads on Tuesday night.

LADIES TEAM THUMPS RICHMOND HILL 32-17
A strengthened Richmond Gill girls team met an even more experienced
Stouffville club on Wednesday night of last week on the Yonge Street
diamond. The result was much similar to the first meeting between the
teams. Although Stouffville racked up a 32-17 victory, they were
forced to come from behind to win. Markham’s Joan Lomax started on
the mound for the locals and worked four innings.
Joan Raymer took over in relief and finished the game. At the end of
the first inning Richmond Hill held a 5-4 edge the homesters made it
18-4 when struck for 13 runs in the second. Not to be outdone
Stouffville came to chalk up 21 runs in the third.
Betty Brooks and Doreen Jarvis were the power batsmen for the winners.
Each player hammered out single home runs. LOCAL TRIO WINNERS IN OPENING ROUND BOWLING PROV. PLAYOFFS
Representatives from Lawn Bowling clubs in the southern half of
District 13, met at Claremont last week for the first round of the
provincial ladies’ lawn bowling playoffs.
A trio of Stouffville ladies who have been consistently high in this
event won the trebles first round. The threesome is composed of Mrs.
Elgin Wagg, Mrs. Ken Laushway and Mrs. Fred Crossen. There were four
entries in this event. In the first game the Stouffville ladies
defeated a threesome from Whitby skipped by Mrs. Freeman, 18 to 14. In
the final game Mrs. Crossen’s rink won out 23 to 8. These winners
will play off against the winners of the northern half of the District
at Newmarket on Monday afternoon, June 21st.
In the singles event Miss Jean Pipher dropped her game to Mrs. Tough
of Whitby 21 to 20 after 25 ends.
In the doubles Mrs. Storey and Mrs. Wallace of Stouffville were
defeated in a close game against Mrs. Beare and Mrs. Hammond of
Claremont. After being tied 9 to 9 going into the 15th end, they were
defeated by one shot. CARDS WHIP MARHAM 7-2; 3-HITTER FOR BARBER
Righthander Harry Barber was in fine form on Friday night. Twirling a
sparkling 3- hitter, the Gormley mound ace held Markham off the score
sheet until the final inning to post a 72 victory. The Stouffville
win gives Murray Stewart’s squad a one game edge on the season’s play.
The Cards have beaten Markham three times and have dropped a pair.
Markham’s batsmen just could not cope with Barbers “stuff” in Friday’s
fixture. They were held hitless in the second and third innings. The
southern rivals bunched together a pair of walks and a double in their
final turn at bat to push two runners across.
The Cards jumped on hurler Dave Webb for 4 runs in the first inning.
The Markham moundsman received rather weak support in the field as his
mates committed errors on the first three men at the plate.
Stouffville added one in the 3rd and two in the 4th. Long-ball
slugger, Gord Eckardt unleashed some of his power again on Friday but
each time he was left stranded on base. In the third inning he
whacked out a double and in the fourth he followed through with a
single. Ted Suzuki and Harry Barber each poked out a pair of
single-base blows. Bob Stover, batting in the number four cleanup
spot, belted a double. Ross Madill and Don Haynes each collected one
safety.
“Nebbie” Gayman and John Ross slammed doubles for Markham’s best plate
performance. Mike Pettit connected for a single. They stranded six
men on base. Stouffville marooned a like number. MIDGETS BLANK MARKHAM FOR FIRST WIN
Stouffville Midgets chalked up their initial victory of the North York
schedule on Friday night ,blanking Markham 4-0. Bob Hassard handled
the team in the absence of Manager and Coach Gord Eckardt and Don
Haynes. They were engaged in a Junior fixture at Markham.
Glenn Jackson pitched shut-out ball for Stouffville with Bob Bradbury
completing the battery.

7. MARKHAM BEATS CARDS 4-2
Umpire Quits, Returns
The tables were turned on the Cardinals Thursday night. Facing their
arch rivals the Markham Red Sox, Stouffville’s fielding prowess
suddenly fell apart and the visitors racked up a 4-2 victory.
Seven Errors
It was the Cards weakest fielding display of the season. They
committed a total of seven errors, three of these miscues came in the
sixth and final inning. Each of Markham’s four tallies was unearned.
Don Haynes, a winner in his initial performance on the mound two weeks
previously, suffered the loss in Thursday’s tilt. Although he fired a
masterful four-hitter, he alone committed three of the teams seven
bobbles. He dropped one pop fly and threw two balls wild to first and
second base.
Three-Hitter
Southpaw Dave Webb delivered a stingy three-hitter. It was his best
pitching performance against the Cards here this season. On previous
occasions Stouffville batsmen have had little trouble with his
offerings.
Webb had his “stuff” on Thursday. He retired the opposition order in
the first, fourth and fifth innings. Only in the second and sixth
could Stouffville get kind of a threatening rally going. In the
second, cleanup Bob Stover, received a base on balls. He romped home
when Don Haynes clubbed a double into centrefield and moved to third
on an error. In the sixth,Ted Suzuki singled and scored on two
infield errors.
One Big Chance
The Cards had one big opportunity to pull the game out of the fire.
In their final turn at the plate, the tying runners were perched on
second and third but failed to advance. Two successive errors by
Markham’s third baseman “Nebbie” Gayman put Bob Stover and Don Haynes
on base. With two out long-ball slugger Gord Eckardt whiffed at three
strikes to retire the side and end the game. Although hurler Webb
showed real signs of tiring the Markham manger left him in and he came
through with an all-important strikeout.
One Double
Markham, like Stouffville, were held to only one extra-base blow
“Nebbie” Gayman rapped a double into the outfield. Single safeties
were poked out by Dave Webb, Bob Atkinson and Mike Pettit
Umpire Quits, Returns
Umpire Len Buckland, Stouffville’s ever-faithful plate official,
walked off the diamond in the fourth inning when questioned on a park
ground rule. He returned, however, and the contest was completed. He
informed the management following game that they would have obtain
another official for future contests. It is hoped, however, that he
will reconsider and resume his weekly duties. CARDS BOW TO OSHAWA 4-3 IN NINE INNING THRILLER
Murray Stewart’s Jr. Cardinals dropped a tight 4-3 decision to Oshawa
in a thrilling nine inning contest under the lights on Tuesday night.
The motormen were forced to battle from behind in the ninth inning to
gain their one-run margin.
Righthander Harry Barber went the distance on the mound for the local squad.
Take Early Lead
A walk, a double and three errors allowed Oshawa to jump into a 2-0
lead in the first inning. The Cards rallied with one run in the top
half of the second and the score was unchanged until the eighth when
Stouffville moved out front 3-2. This lead was short-lived however,
as the visitors salted the game away in their final trip to the plate.
Errors Count
As in Thursday nights game with Markham, errors made the difference.
Thee Cards made a total of 5 miscues while Oshawa had only one. Every
Stouffville infielder with the exception of second baseman Lynn Taylor
made one bobble. Ross Madill, Eric Barber, Gord Eckardt and Murray
Holden each racked up a point on the black list. Centre-fielder Ted
Suzuki also had one miscue. Oshawa’s only bobble came in the second
inning when first-sacker Ted Bathe dropped a routine throw from the
pitcher to give Eric Barber a life. Harry Barber romped home on the
play.
Shaky Start
In giving up a pair of walks and a double Stouffville hurler, Harry
Barber appeared a trifle shaky in the opening inning. Both he and his
mates leveled out as the contest progressed and turned the match into
a nip and tuck battle. Barber was clipped for 7 hits. He walked six
and struck out five. Stouffville batsmen whacked out 7 hits off three
Oshawa pitchers.
Thrilling Finish
When all appeared lost and a number of spectators had left the park,
the Cardinals erupted for two runs in the eighth to grab a one run
advantage. Right fielder Bob Stover was clipped on the hand by a wild
pitch and trotted down to first base. Clean-up slugger Don Haynes
smashed a tremendous three base hit into centrefield to score Stover.
Harry Barber bounced out second to first, but Ross Madill laid down a
perfect sacrifice bunt to score Haynes from third. Murray Holden
grounded out pitcher to first to end the rally.
Not to be outdone Oshawa staged a two run rally of their own in the
top half of the ninth. Pitcher Bob Winters poked a ground ball past
Holden at first base and Dave Easterbrook was clipped by a wild pitch.
Fisher outraced a perfect bunt to score Winters with the tying tally.
A single by Lawrence Jeffs the winner across the plate. GIRLS CRUSH OSHAWA 21-8 IN EXHIBITION GAME
The Stouffville girls team continues to crush all opposition in their
pre-playoff exhibition games. On Wednesday night of last week, “Peg”
O’Neill’s squad erupted for ten runs in the eighth inning to whip
Oshawa 21-8.
Works 8 Innings
Joan Raymer, Stouffville’s stalwart righthander, worked the entire
game on the mound for the winners. With the exception of a pair of
home run balls, the local twirler held the Motor City squad to
single-base blows. She gave up 11 hits and registered two strike
outs. She possessed excellent control and didn’t give up a single
base on balls. Oshawa ,on the other hand, ran out of pitching
strength. Kathy Gibbens started on the mound for the visitors and
went five complete innings. Sharon Mayne took over in relief and
worked two and one-third innings. When the situation worsened Gibbens
returned to the hill and finished the game.
Fourteen Hits
Stouffville’s batters whacked out a total of 14 hits from the
offerings of Oshawa’s two pitchers. They collected 8 safeties off
starter Gibbens and added 6 from relief twirler Mayne. Oshawa fielders
committed nine errors. Stouffville also had 9 bobbles. Unlike the
Stouffville pitcher, Oshawa’s hurlers allowed a total of 11 walks.
Seven of these players later came to score.
New Plate Power
Stouffville first-sacker Joan Lomax provided the homesters most
consistent plate power. The hard-slugging infielder collected four
base hits in five official trips to the plate. She flied deep to left
field in the third. A recent arrival to the Stouffville roster, she
has quickly regained her batting form and is currently one of the
club’s most prolific hitters. A resident of Markham she performed
formerly in the Toronto senior circuits.
Gwenn Kennedy and Joyce Roberts connected for Stouffville’s only
extra-base blows. The seventh concession slugger belted a
round-tripper in the locals big ten-run 8th inning. She poked out a
single in the first. Joyce Roberts bagged a double in the third.
Lead-off batter Doreen Jarvis whacked out a pair of singles. She also
worked opposition pitchers for a pair of walks and completed the
circuit on both occasions. She hit into a double play in the seventh.
Single safeties came from the bats of Marion Gayman, Donna Seebeck,
Betty Brooks, Mavis Trunk and Joan Raymer.
Helen O’Connor was Oshawa’s best. She clouted a home run and a
single. Dianne Thomas also slammed a 4-bagger. Beatrice Allen and
Sharon Mayne each connected for a pair of singles.
Steals Home
Donna Seebeck displayed some daring base running for the local girls.
In the seventh inning she gained a base on balls and later stole home.
Again in the eighth she singled and later raced across the plate.
Oshawa weren’t quite so fortunate in this department. Bev McCable
attempted to steal home in the sixth inning but was caught cold at the
plate. Catcher Doreen Jarvis relayed the ball off the backstop to
pitcher Joan Raymer who picked the runner off. BLANKED BY AURORA
Stouffville’s Midget team succumbed to a hard-hitting Aurora squad on
Friday night when they were blanked 8-0 by the Yonge Street crew.
Keith Scott on the Aurora mound held the Stouffville batsmen to five
single-base blows.
Geo. McKay started on the hill for the homesters and worked three and
one-third innings. Southpaw Glenn Jackson took over in relief and
finished the game. McKay was clipped for 5 hits. Jackson allowed 3
safeties. The local lefty was a stifle wild and issued 4 walks in two
and two-thirds innings. He hit one batter.
Roger Stover, Allan Boyd, Geo. McKay, Glenn Jackson and Wayne Pennanen
collected Stouffville’s hits. Leftfielder Allan Boyd was hit on the
head by a batted ball when it evaded his outstretched glove. The ball
bounced over the fence and John Holdane, the batter, was credited with
an automatic double.

THREE LOCAL BOWLERS WIN PROVINCIAL CHAMPIONSHIP
Mrs. Dorothy Wagg, Mrs. Reta Laushway and Mrs. Eleanor Crossen of
Stouffville captured the Ladies Provincial Lawn Bowling Triples
Championship on Tuesday, Aug. 19th. They defeated Mrs. Armstrong,
Mrs. Mott and Mrs. Gardiner of Sarnia by a score of 27-12 in a 21 end
game. The competition was held at the Boulevard Club, Toronto. The
Stouffville trio led from the beginning. Sarnia did not get on the
score sheet until the 6th end. On only one occasion did Sarnia creep
close. They were only one down on the 13th end. Stouffville
proceeded to take over a commanding lead and allowed Sarnia only two
more counts for the remainder of the game.
An old saying in bowling circles, “as the lead goes, so goes game”
held true on Tuesday. Mrs. Wagg, as lead, played an excellent game and
received a word of praise from Mr. Taylor and Mr. Hutchinson
well-known Toronto bowlers. Mr. Hutchinson is a columnist the Toronto
Telegram.
Mr. Hutchinson commented he was quite sure that, on Tuesday’s
championship performance, the ladies could out-class the men.
Following the competition, the bowlers were honoured at a banquet.

Trophy. Mr. Taylor made the presentation. The local ladies also
received a large silver rose bowl suitably engraved. Mrs. Crossen has
now won the Provincial singles, doubles and triples championships.
Mrs.Laushway is a provincial doubles and triples champion. BANTAMS BOW TO CHIPPAWA 11-6 IN O.B.A. OPENER
Stouffville’s Bantam team bowed to Chippawa 11-6 on Saturday afternoon
in the first game of the OBA ‘C’ play offs. The nine inning contest
was played here in Stouffville Take Early Lead
The visitors jumped into a two run lead in the first inning and never
were headed.
Although the homesters narrowed the gap on several occasions, they
could not pull back on even terms. Stouffville out-hit their rivals
but the Chippawa batsman clouted four extra base blows. Warren
Hendricks poked out the longest Stouffville ball, a ringing triple in
the ninth inning. Wilf Ludlam and Brian Wilkes belted doubles.
Seven Errors
Stouffville’s defence showed signs of weakness at times as the
fielders committed a total of 7 errors. The lads settled down in the
latter stages of the game and played fine ball. They appeared a
trifle shaky in the early innings. Two errors in the first and four
bobbles in the third allowed five unearned runs to score. They made
another miscue in the fifth. For the remaining four innings,
Stouffville played errorless ball. Chippawa made five errors. The
homesters couldn’t cash in on their fumbles and scored only once.
Twelve Stranded
Stouffville’s “clutch” hitters failed to produce and 12 men were left
marooned on the base paths. In the 8th inning, the locals loaded up
the sacks but failed to score. In the 5th and the 7th they left two
stranded. Chippawa left 10 men aboard.
Pitchers in Pairs
Both teams used two pitchers. Barry McLean started on the mound for
Stouffville with Wilf Ludlam taking over in relief. Although the
Stouffville starter was clipped for only 3 hits, he was given weak
fielding support. He walked three. Ludlam twirled five complete
innings. He allowed 7 hits. He issued five bases on balls and
registered 10 strike outs. Ted Naylor toiled six innings for Chippawa
with Geo. Kalins working from the seventh. Naylor was clipped for 9
hits. Kalins allowed 4.
Hendricks Best
Leadoff batter, Warren Hendricks turned in the locals best plate
performance. He poled a single in the first inning and slammed a
triple in the ninth. He failed to count a run, however . He was the
victim of a fielders choice in the first and was left parked on third
base in the ninth. Brian Wilkes also looked good. He singled in the
second and doubled in the sixth. He met the same fate as team mate
Hendricks and failed to cross the plate. Norm Galbraith, Glenn
Jackson and John Roxborough each collected a pair singles. Wilf
Ludlam belted a two-bagger and Barry McLean tapped a single. Ted
Naylor was Chippawa’s best with a double and two singles to his
credit. Glyn Thomas, Frank Tufts and Al Cournoyea bagged doubles. CARDS LOSE TO MARKHAM 9-6
Markham’s Junior Red Sox defeated the Cardinals 9-6 in a round-robin
North York playoff game on Friday evening in Markham. The return tilt
is scheduled for Stouffville’s Memorial Park on Thursday evening at
7:15 p.m.
The local squad was short- handed for the game. They were minus their
two ace pitchers, Murray Holden and Harry Barber. Don Haynes was also
absent. Ross Madill handled the hurling chores for the Cards with
Eric Barber completing the battery. Dave Webb and Mike Pettit worked
on the mound for the winners.
Lynn Taylor slammed a round tripper for Stouffville’s best plate
performance. Stouffville had a good opportunity to pull the contest
out of the fire in the final inning when they loaded up the sacks with
only one out. They were retired in order. MIDGETS LOSE TO NEWCASTLE 22-9
Stouffville’s Midget team absorbed a 22-9 defeat at the hands of
Newcastle on Monday in the first game of the OBA ‘C’ playoffs. The
return contest is scheduled for the
Stouffville park on Friday.
Stouffville were unable to hold their older opposition in check as
they piled up a
convincing lead. Coach Gord Eckardt had to press a number of Bantam
players into the Midget roster in order to field a full lineup.

ONE HUNDRED DOLLAR DOLL
A doll is an unusual plaything for a boy, but when it’s covered with
one hundred, $! bills, then it’s a much different story. Four year
old Blair Clarkson of Stouffville was the winner of the prize doll at
the Lion’s Club Carnival held at the Arena on Wednesday night of last
week.
“I guess I’m about the richest boy ever,” was the young lad’s only
comment. The money has been placed in the bank for lBait’s future use.
The doll has been given to a sister. SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas AN AMAZING ATHLETE
“He certainly is an amazing little fellow.” That was a comment I
overheard from a partisan Pickering spectator in attendance at the
playoff contest in Markham on Tuesday night. The fan was, of course,
talking about pint-sized “Peg” O’Neill, Markham’s softball control
artist. It was this same little guy that chalked up a win in the
first game of the series and then returned to oust the opposition in
the rubber tilt.
What keeps him going? Where does he get his pitching power? I don’t
believe his equal has ever been known in local softball circles.
After one season out of competitive Intermediate ranks, I never
personally believed he would make a come-back. With Markham presently
in the thick of Provincial playoff competition, O’Neill finds himself
once again carrying the bulk of the teams mound load. Truly the name
of “Peg” O’Neill will join the group of local sports immortals if and
when he decides to hang up his spikes and glove for good. His absence
would leave a vacuum in Markham’s softball ranks that could never be
filled.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… GIRLS TRIM DIXIE 17-9 IN ‘C‘ PLAYOFF
Stouffville girls clubbed out a 17-9 victory over Dixie under the
lights here on Monday night in the first game of the Provincial ‘C’
playoffs. The return tilt was scheduled for Dixie on Wednesday.
After absorbing a double defeat at the hands of Newmarket in ‘B’
class, “Peg” O’Neill’s squad have dropped back into a lower category.
They believe they have a good chance of winning the Ontario
championship this season.
Joan Raymer went the distance on the mound for the homesters. She
held the visitors to eight hits. She enjoyed good control and issued
only three walks. Only in the second inning did Dixie threaten when
they connected for three hits. One runner was safe on an error and
another received a base on balls to score four runs. Their remaining
tallies were confined to single runs. Jean-Ann McCallum handled the
hurling chores for Dixie. Gwen Kennedy turned in her usual fine plate
performance for Stouffville. The agile slugger belted a triple, a
double and a single. She also gained a base on a walk in five times
at bat. She completed the circuit four times. Mavis Trunk whacked
out a triple. Betty Brooks and Doreen Jarvis each clouted doubles.
Joyce Roberts bagged a pair of singles. Donna Seebeck had one hit.
Elsie Tremills was Dixie’s best with a home run, a double and a
single. Pat Irvine poled a double and a single. Dixie committed four
errors. Stouffville had three bobbles. A double error on Marion
Gayman’s infield grounder allowed the Stouffville base-runner to score
in the 5th. She was also safe on an error in the second. CARDS WHIP WOODBINE 3-1, PRE-PLAYOFF GAME
Murray Stewarts Cardinals warmed up for their forthcoming Provincial
Junior playoffs by whipping Woodbine 5-1 in an exhibition game on
Tuesday night. Curve-baller Harry
Barber, working on the mound for the homesters, held the opposition to
3 hits. Stouffville batsman whacked out six.
The Cards jumped into a three run lead in the second inning and added
a pair in the sixth. Woodbine notched their lone tally in the sixth.
Stouffville’s agile hockey and baseball performer, Glenn Jackson was
the local’s top batsman. He bagged two singles, one in the second and
one in the sixth. The leftfielder is still eligible for Bantam ball
but has played regularly for the Midgets. He has filled in with the
Juniors when the homesters have been shorthanded. Harry Barber,
Madill Don Haynes and Stover collected the other hits. All were
single-base blows. PEEWEE TEAM IN NEWMARKET TOURNEY
A seventh inning rally, gave Thornhill a close 9-8 victory over
Stouffville in a Peewee baseball tournament held at Newmarket on
Saturday. Bradford, Lindsay, Newmarket and Cobourg were also entered.
The Stouffville entry put up a fine battle and held a three run lead
at one point in the contest. In the bottom half of the 7th,
Thornhill staged a last-ditch rally and scored four runs. Three
walks, a double and a triple knocked Stouffville out of the
tournament. Mike Cadieux went the distance on the mound for the local
squad. Bill Lehman was slated for mound duty in the semi-finals if
Stouffville could have beaten Thornhill.
Two of Stouffville’s best hits came in the fifth and sixth innings.
With the bases loaded in the 5th, Bill Corner belted a triple. In the
sixth, with one on base, Paul Stover duplicated Corner’s feat and
clouted a 3-bagger. Other Stouffville safeties came from the bats of
Ross Brown, Dave Slack, Arlan Galbraith and Jim Hill. lLoren Boadway
handled the Stouffville entry.
Stouffville’s Midget club bowed out of the OBA playoffs on Friday when

STOUFFVILLE GIRLS SWAMP RICHMOND HILL 16 TO 6
The Stouffville girls team turned its heavy guns on Richmond Hill
Monday and hammered out a 15-6 victory in the second round of their
Provincial playoffs. The return tilt is scheduled for Thursday
evening.
Doreen Jarvis provided Stouffville’s long-ball plate power. she
clubbed two home runs. The round-trippers came in successive innings,
one in the fourth and another in the fifth. Almost every player on the
Stouffville squad banged out at least one safety. In the nine inning
encounter, Joan Lomax and Natalie Betch each scored three runs. Gwen
Kennedy, Doreen Jarvis, Donna Seebeck and Joan Raymer each collected a
pair. Isobel Mashinter completed the circuit on two occasions for the
Yonge Street crew. Natalie Betch handled the hurling chores for
Stouffville. Although she ran into trouble in the first inning, she
settled down to hold the opposition in check and held a 3-0 lead until
Stouffville rallied to tie the score in the second. From that point
on Stouffville routed their rivals.
Betty-Ann Slack turned in a fine two-way performance for the local
team. She tapped out a pair of hits and pushed four team mates across
the plate. In addition she gathered in four fly balls in right
field. She completed the most sparkling put-out of the contest when
she grabbed a would-be base hit in the shallow outfield and fired to
first-sacker Joan Lomax to nip the runner. The O’Brien Ave. girl is
considered to be one of the team’s best prospects. DROP OBA OPENER
The Stouffville Cardinals dropped the first game of O.B.A. Junior ‘C’
playoffs to Durham Huskies 7-4 in Durham on Monday afternoon.
The return contest is scheduled for Stouffville’s Memorial Park on
Saturday afternoon at 3:30
Big Chance
The entire story of the game could have been told in the first
-inning. Both clubs had excellent opportunities to score a volley of
runs when they loaded up the sacks. Durham pushed four men across the
plate. Stouffville chalked up only one tally. That was the ball
game. Although the Cards threatened in the second inning, they never
pulled back on even terms. Each team notched three runs in the
remaining innings. Four Hits
Stouffville batsmen whacked out a total of four hits in the first
stanza. Ted Suzuki teed off on the first pitch of the game and rapped
a single into right field. Lynn Taylor pushed Suzuki down to second
with a sacrifice bunt. Successive singles from the bats of Harry
Barber and Bob Stover loaded up the bases. Durham s supporters were
unusually silent when Gord Eckardt beat out a short infield hit and
Suzuki romped home. With the sacks still packed, Ross Madill was a
strike out victim and Don Haynes flied out to left field to end the
inning. Three mates were left stranded.
Wipe Out Lead
It took Durham only 2 walks, a single and a wild pitch to wipe out the
Cards one run lead. Another runner was cut off at the plate, when
third baseman Eric Barber fired to catcher Ross Madill for a force-out
at home. A walk and a single-base blow added two more Durham tallies.
The next two batters were retired in order.
Still in Game
Stouffville remained very much in the ball game as they staged a
two-run rally in the top half of the second. Eric Barber and John
Little were strike-out victims, but Ted Suzuki worked a walk. The
third baseman bobbled Lynn Taylor’s ground ball and threw wild to
first. Suzuki romped around to third. Harry Barber dropped a Texas
League single into the shallow outfield and Bob Stover received a base
on balls to put two more men on base. Gord Eckardt went down on
strikes.
Big Lefthander
Durham used a big lefthander, Brad McTavish for the all important
opener. After a rather shaky start, he settled down to twirl tine
ball. He was clipped for 4 hits in the first inning. He fired a
stingy two-hitter for remainder of the contest.
Shaky Start
Stouffville’s ace righthander, Harry Barber appeared a trifle shaky in
the opening innings. Like Durham’s McTavish, he settled down in the
latter stages of the game and held the opposition to three hits and
one run in the final the innings. Barber was clipped for 3 safeties.
He issued 4 walks and registered 8 strike outs. McTavish allowed 6
hits. He walked five and whiffed 10 Stouffville batters.
All Singles
The fourteen hits banged out by both clubs were all single-base blows.
Stouffville’s Harry Barber topped the locals hit parade with three
safeties. Gore Eckardt, Bob Stover and Ted Suzuki each had one hit.
Brad McTavish, Cam Ritchie and Bob Stock each belted a pair of singles
for the winners. Al Boyd and Larry Reay tapped out one hit apiece.
Here on Saturday
Stouffville Coach Murray Stewart, may start with south-paw hurler
Murray Holden in Saturday’s do-or-die tilt. Durham may again
return their lefthander Brad McTavish since he enjoyed good success in
the opener. The winner of this series will advance into the
all-Ontario finals and will meet Wheatley, a town near Windsor, for
the Provincial honours. LAWN BOWLING NEWS

September 11 1958 (con’t) CARDS EDGE DURHAM 2-1 IN EXTRA INNING THRILLER
Stouffville cardinals squeezed out a thrilling 2-1 victory over Durham
Huskies on Saturday afternoon to deadlock their Junior ‘C’ Ontario
playoff semi-finals at one game apiece. The rubber contest is
scheduled for Stouffville’s Memorial Park on Saturday afternoon at
3:30.
Thrilling Finish
The air was almost electric with excitement as Stouffville came to bat
in the bottom of the tenth inning with the score tied 1-1. John
little was a strike out victim but Harry Barber lashed a double into
deep right field. Bob Stover, one of the club’s most potent batsmen,
rifled a grass-cutting ground ball at Durham third-sacker Les McGirr.
The drive slipped past the infielder’s glove and rolled out into
shallow left field. Barber galloped home with the game-winning tally.
He was mobbed by his mates for a sparkling mound and plate
performance.
Barber in Charge
Stouffville righthander, Harry Barber was the Cards mound master. He
held the opposition to five hits. He registered 12 strike outs. The
Victoria Square ace enjoyed excellent control and issued only one base
on balls. He fired everything in the baseball book including an
occasional knuckler when necessary. He retired his rivals in order in
five of the ten innings. The one Durham run that did cross the plate
was unearned. A lone double in the ninth was the only extra-base blow
collected off the Stouffville curveballer.
Take Lead
Like Durham’s first tally, Stouffville counted an unearned run in the
seventh. Ross Madill was safe on an infield fumble. Don Haynes and
Eric Barber were retired in order but Ted Suzuki belted a long double
into centre field to score Madill. John Little flied out to left
field to end the rally.
More Plate Power
Although Durham’s southpaw hurler dished out another stingy
five-hitter, Stouffville’s batsmen displayed more long power than was
evident in the opener. On a number of occasions Durham’s outfielders
were pushed back to the fence in order to pull down well-hit balls.
Stouffville fielders on the other hand had to nab only two
long-distance clouts, one in first and one in the tenth. The Cards
whacked eight long balls. Three of Stouffville’s hits were extra-base
blows. They connected for three doubles and a pair of singles.
Madill Good
A switch in position for Ross Madill paid off for the Cards. Don
Haynes returned to his regular place behind the plate and Madill took
his familiar stand on the third base hot spot. He turned in a superb
defensive performance and was one of the main cogs in the Stouffville
infield machine. He completed six putouts. In addition, he started a
fast double play that wiped out a threatened Durham rally in the
fourth inning. Although he had little luck at the plate, he poled one
drive into the left field elms that was foul by a few feet.
Ninth Inning Lapse
The Cards suffered a near-disastrous ninth inning lapse that could
have cost them the ball game and the series. With one out, Durham’s
Bob Stock belted a double into left field. Hohn little attempted to
out-throw the runner at second and fired wild. He advanced to third.
Barber forced John Schaefer to pop out to second-sacker Lynn Taylor to
ease the pressure. With two out, Coach Stewart worked some strategy
and walked clean-up slugger Brad McTavish intentionally. Durham’s
Bill Sullivan rapped a ground ball to first baseman Gord Eckardt. In
his haste to beat the runner he bobbled the ball. The front runner
scored and all was evened up. In an effort to keep their rally
rolling, McTavish streaked for third but was nipped off on a perfect
throw to Ross Madill. Taylor Connects
Lynn Taylor, long known for his steady defensive ability, was one of
the key men in Stouffville’s offensive attack on Saturday. In four
turns at the bat, he dropped down a perfect sacrifice bunt and beat it
out. He rapped a double into the out field and gained a base on
balls. In his first appearance at bat, the he drove the ball into
deep left field for a long out. Ted Suzuki and Harry Barber bagged
doubles. Bob Stover hit a Texas League single in the second inning.
Jack Lawrence, Bob Stock, John Schaefer, Brad McTavish and Bill
Sullivan collected Durham’s safeties.
Errors Fatal
Errors proved to be fatal for both clubs. Miscues accounted for all
three runs that crossed the plate. Each team had four bobbles. A fine
play by first baseman Gord Eckardt in the sixth inning turned a
would-be error into a routine put-out. Ross Madill snagged a ground
ball but fired into the dirt in front of Eckardt. The big
first-sacker dug his trapper into the turf and held the throw while
partisan fans held their breath.
Winner Goes West
Either Stouffville or Durham will move into the all-Ontario finals.
Wheatley has gained a bye and is awaiting the outcome of Saturday’s
do-or-die contest. Wheatley is located near Leamington. Saturday’s
game will tell the tale. Picture

CARDS OUST DURHAM ON 6TH INNING SQUEEZE PLAY
A “squeeze play”, one of the few ever successfully executed here was
pulled off by the Stouffville Junior Cardinals on Saturday afternoon.
The split-second maneuver counted the game-winning tally as the
homesters ousted Durham from the Ontario semi-finals. The Cards added
the insurance run in the eighth to chalk up a thrilling 5-3 victory,
They now advance into the provincial finals. They will challenge
Wheatley for the junior title. Fast Action
Stouffville coach, Murray Stewart master-minded the run-scoring
“squeeze play”. Fans stood motionless in open-mouthed amazement. The
Durham infield was caught completely flat-footed. iI was the key play
of the game and the series.
Teams Tied
Coach Stewart’s scheme was put into motion in the bottom half of the
sixth inning. Successive singles by Bob Stover and Gord Eckardt evened
the score at 3-3. With one out and Eckhardt parked on third base, the
stage was set for the “squeeze”. On a 2-1 pitch to Ross Madill at the
plate, Eckardt took off home. As the big Stouffville first-sacker
pounded toward plate, Madill tapped a slow roller to the mound.
Durham pitcher Brad McTavish had no alternative but to make a play to
first to nab Madill. Eckardt scored easily. It proved to be winner.
Not Easy Win
Saturday’s victory trail was transformed into a rocky road in the
filth inning for Stouffville’s curveball ace, Harry Barber. The rival
Durham batsmen teed off and collected runs off five hits, to take a
brief 3-2 edge. With the exception of this one-inning lapse, the
Victoria Square right-hander was in control. He retired the side in
order in the third, seventh and eighth innings. He issued one walk,
struck out seven. Bunch Hits
Stouffville batters were able to bunch their hits into two
run-producing innings. Although Durham southpaw Brad McTavish dished
up a stingy six-hitter, five of these were clubbed out in the fifth
and sixth. It was enough for Stouffville to win. The big lefthander
was working on a no-hither until the fatal fifth. Stouffville’s plate
offensive was carried over into the sixth and Durham’s title hopes
came to a disappointing conclusion. After taking the series opener by
a 7-4 count, the visitors seemed to lack the cocky confidence they
displayed in the first game.
Slump Ends
The “rubber game” featured some solid hitting from the big bat of
Stouffville’s Don Haynes. Labouring during the past series with an
injured leg, his plate efforts have been noticeably affected. This
was not the case on Saturday. The hard-throwing Card catcher made the
opposition swallow their criticism with his team’s best performance.
He started Stouffville’s fifth inning rally rolling with a ringing
double into deep centrefield and followed through with a single in the
sixth. He was later trapped and tagged out when he attempted to
stretch his hit into extra bases. He played superb ball in a
defensive role also. He halted a Durham rally in the sixth, when he
picked off the Huskies’ Allan Boyd at third base. In addition, he
nipped Durham’s Jack Lawrence at second base on an attempted steal in
the first inning.
Other Hits
Don Haynes was the only Stouffville player to connect for more than
one hit. Other single safeties came from the bats of Harry Barber,
Bob Stover, Gord Eckardt and John Little. Allan Boyd and Larry Reay
each touched Barber for a pair of hits. Bob Stocks conked a triple.
John Schaefer, Brad McTavish and Bill Sullivan poked out singles.
Well Handled
Plate umpire Loring Doolittle and base official Bill Lennox handled a
good game. There was little argument on infield calls in spite of a
number of close decisions. The always- colourful Doolittle kept both
clubs hustling and the entire nine inning contest was completed in two
hours. A large crowd attended the afternoon tilt.
Rivals Unknown
Wheatley, a town near Leamington, on the shore of Lake Erie have been
long known for their baseball organization. Although, to our
knowledge, they have never played against a Stouffville club in
previous years, competition in the Provincial finals is nothing new
for this team. The first game of the series has been set for Saturday
afternoon in Stouffville’s Memorial Park at 3.30 p.m. HORSESHOE CLUB PLAYOFFS START FRI.
The Stouffville Horseshoe Club will start their playoffs on Friday
evening of this week at eight o’clock. Following the completion of
regular scheduled games, the standings are as follows:

The stouffville girls came to the end of the softball road on Monday
night when they bowed to Norwich 13-4 in the Int. ‘C’ Provincial
semi-finals. The locals took the series opener 16-13 but dropped the
next two contests here in stouffville by identical scores. Norwich now
advances into the Ontario finals. They will meet either Bright or
Electric.
In the early stages of the game, Stouffville appeared to be the likely
winners as they held a 2-0 lead at the end of the second inning.
Joyce Roberts and Doreen Jarvis completed the circuit to score the
runs.
Norwich turned their heavy bats on Stouffville pitcher Natalie Belch
in the fourth inning and belted out four hits, including a home run, a
triple and two singles. From that point, the visitors could not be
stopped. They continued their assault in the fifth and sewed up the
contest with four hits and four runs in their final trip to the plate
in the eighth.
With the Norwich hits came Stouffville errors. Single-base blows were
stretched for extra bases as the ball was repeatedly bobbled. The wet
outfield grass added insult to injury. Stouffville committed a total
of nine errors. Norwich made five miscues.
Alice Noack twirled a sparkling five-hitter for the winners. She
appeared to weaken slightly in the eighth when stouffville batters
connected for two successive safeties. She made a quick recovery
however and permitted only one run to score. Stouffville’s Natalie
Belch was clipped for 13 hits.
Joyce Roberts turned in a fine performance for the local squad, both
at the plate and in left field. She bagged three of the homesters
five hits. Marion Gayman clubbed a triple and Mavis Trunk tapped out
a single. Denise Barrett was a tower of strength for Norwich. The
blonde centrefielder clouted three singles and a triple. Marion Ward
tagged a triple and a single. Joyce Kennedy slammed a home run.
The Norwich club appeared to gain considerable confidence as they
built up a comfortable lead. The fired the ball around the infield
with manlike agility and Stouffville runners had little opportunity to
steal. Mavis Trunk, Stouffville’s second sacker was picked off first
base when she ventured too far from the bag.
The local girls have enjoyed one of their best seasons in many years
under the leader ship of “Peg” O’Neill. They plan to return to the
softball wars next summer and will reenter the Ontario playoffs in
search of the coveted title.

On a recent afternoon visited the Stouffville High School for a
pre-game report on the local junior rugby roster. As i waited at the
entrance, broad-shouldered athletes pounded past me enroute to the
field for a warmup workout. As I stole a quick glimpse of each boy in
an effort to recognize a face under a Buck Rogers’ type helmet, a
total stranger romped toward me garbed in gear that resembled a
passenger on a U.S. moon rocket, he stopped to say hello. Under neath
the armour-plate-like paraphernalia was Mr. Jim Re-hill, school P.T.
instructor.
“One of the boys injured his leg today so I’m taking his place,” he
explained. Mr. Rehill planned to join in the scrimmage to round out a

This good-natured P.T. trainer has done much for sports in
Stouffville’s High School. Enthusiasm among local competitors was
never at a higher level. He does not lend his services only to the
male members of the student body. If a girls basketball team or other
groups needs athletic instruction, then he’ll gladly give of his time
and talent to help them along. Mr. Rehlll’s love of inter-school and
inter-class sport has had a contagious effect on his young proteges.
They have taken up the challenge and are making their mark on the
inter-college sports front.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. JR. RUGBY TEAM BLANKS WOODBRIDGE 14-0
“He was sensational.” said Coach Jim Rehill, following Stouffville’s
thrilling 14-0 shut out over Woodbridge on Thursday afternoon of last
week. Coach Rehill was describing the play of local halfback Ron
Wideman, the hard-running Junior star turned in a fine
performance in the important opening rugby contest played at
Thornhill. The return tilt is scheduled for Stouffville’s field on
Thursday afternoon. The home town college crew are favoured to sweep
the series and advance into further district playoff competition.
Backed by a huge turnout of pro-Woodbridge supporters, the opposition
had Stouffville on the defensive in the early stages of the game. The
rivals did manage to score but the goal was called back on a penalty.
Midway through the first quarter, Stouffville stormed to the attack.
Quarterback John Roxborough fired a pitchout to Don Eddington who
relayed the ball to Roger Stover. The charging fullback romped 20
yards for a touchdown. Ross Pattenden completed the convert to give
Stouffville a 7-0 lead.
In the third quarter, Ron Wideman took charge. He scooped up a
Woodbridge fumble and raced 40 yards to score. As in the previous
T.D., Ross Pattenden booted the ball between the posts for the
convert. Stouffville held a 14-0 advantage.
One of the most thrilling plays of the contest came with only five
minutes left in the game. With Woodbridge pressing, Ron Wideman
pulled down a kick behind the Stouffville goal line. Unwilling to
yield a single point, he galloped into the midst of an onrushing
Woodbridge squad. Gaining momentum, he rolled up to the 15 yard line
before he was finally felled. The sensational runback eased the
pressure on the Stouffville team and allowed them to hold Woodbridge
off the score sheet.
With less than two minutes to play, Roger Stover scored but the goal
was called back on a penalty. Don Eddington also had an excellent
opportunity to extend the local’s lead but this play was also called
back.
Aside from Ron Wideman’s star-studded performance, other players who
played well were Don Eddington, Roger Stover, Bill Sanders, Roger Todd
and Joe Herold.
With the exception of a bad crosswind, the weatherman co-operated well
and both clubs played under near-excellent conditions. In spite of
the lopsided win, Stouffville plans to go all-out on Thursday to
assure themselves of further district competition. A win for
Woodbridge would likely force a third game oh a foreign field. TOWN TO PRESENT WRIST WATCHES TO BASEBALL CHAMPS
Stouffville Municipal Council agreed, at a recent meeting to present
the Management and players of the Cardinal baseball club with gold
Bulova wrist watches. The local entry were the winners of the
Provincial Junior ‘C’ championship.
The fine gifts will be suitably engraved. The official presentation
will be made at a
banquet to be held next month. A date of Nov. 12 has been tentatively set.
Council in unanimously supporting the idea, praised the Stouffville
entry for their
accomplishment. It is the first Ontario baseball championship to be
won by a local team in many years. CLIPPERS TRIM MILTON 11-5
Displaying a powerful offensive attack, the Stouffville Clippers
skated onto Milton ice on Tuesday night and trimmed the Merchants
11-5. Stouffville dressed sixteen players for the preschedule
exhibition contest. Milton will play here on Tuesday night in a
return tilt. The schedule opens on Nov. 1st.
Ted Vanderpol and Harold Hodgson paced the Stouffville attack. Each
netted a three goal hat trick and picked up one assist. Ex-Unionville
forward Stan Thornington fired a pair.
Two junior pucksters, John Ross and Kevin O’Connor collected singles.
They also picked up a pair of assists. Geo. Carey notched one. Don
Cosburn assisted on two goals. Other points were picked up by Bud
Lehman, Grant Edwards, Lawrence gayman and Gus Aimstead.
Jack Watson pressed both net-minders, Geo. Wilkins and Joe Carpentier
into action. Wilkins allowed one goal, while Carpentier had four pucks
evade him. Both goalies looked good.
Harold Hodgson and Ted Vanderpol were the Stouffville stars.
Newcomers John Ross and Kevin O’Connor turned in a smooth performance
while Geo. Carey, Don Cosburn and Stan Thornington skated hard. Geo.
Stark bolstered the Stouffville rearguard. The game was a rather
rough encounter with more than 20 penalties being called.
The Clippers jumped into a 3-0 lead in the first period. They
outscored Milton 5-2 in the second frame. Each team notched tallies
in the last period. LIONS BANTAM LEAGUE

With the Lions Peewee league only one night old, a number of players

appear to be well matched. The Bruins edged the Black Hawks 2-1 while
the Rangers downed the Red Wings 4 to l.

Chicago dropped their opener to the Bruins 2-1 but no blame for the
loss could be directed at hawk netminder Laurie Buck-land who turned
in a sharp performance and was selected as the Peewee Player of the
week. He’ll receive a new hockey stick from mr. Cec Hendricks.
The contest was only minutes old when Keith Betz fired an unassisted
tally for the Black Hawks. The Bruins roared back to even the count
and notch the winner. David Jackson lit the light unassisted and Ted
Red-shaw hit the target on a pass from Kirk Mortimer.
Bangers 4, Wings t
Two goals each from the sticks of Ben Alda and David James paced the

The Hornets and Buffalo battled to a 4-4 tie in the opening game of
the Lions Bantam House League on Thursday evening of last week. In
the other contest, the Leafs downed the Canadiens 6-2.
Hornets 4, Buffalo 4
Roger Forsyth, a member of Stouffville’s Ontario finalists in Bantam
ranks last season, paced the Hornets’ four goal attack in Thursdays
opener. In spite of his efforts the Pittsburg club had to settle for
a 4-4 tie with Buffalo. Forsyth bagged a three goal hat trick. Arlan
Galbraith fired one. Jim Mehaffey and Francis Haylow collected
assists. On the Buffalo club, Bill Payne equalled Forsyth’s efforts
with an equally fine goalscoring performance. He also blinked the
light three times. Two of his tallies were unassisted. Jim Miller
picked up one assist.
Leafs 6, Canadiens 2
Ross Brown didn’t lose his goalscoring eye during the summer months.
In the schedule opener on Thursday, the agile puck-juggler collected a
total of five tallies. Four of these goals were solo efforts. Barry
McLean counted one. He also picked up an assist on one of Brown’s
goals. Bill Corner assisted on Aida’s tally. RECORD 460 SKATERS SAT.
One of the largest crowds of pleasure skaters in the nine-year history
of the Stouffville Arena entered the rink on Saturday night. A total
of 460 boys and girls were in attendance. Arena manager W.T. Rennie
informed the Tribune that the crowd broke ail records in the past six
years. Saturday’s influx of skaters exceeded the large
attendance of the preceding week when 415 were present. Public
skating is held twice weekly on Wednesday and Saturday nights. FORMER LOCAL BOYS IN THL
Two former Stouffville hockey players, Larry and Jimmy Malloy, are
performing in the Toronto Hockey League. Larry has been signed to the
roster of the Kenscott Ltd. Midget club. He is the team captain. In
his first pre-season game at Woodbridge on Saturday he fired three
goals and picked up four assists to pace his team to their initial
win.
Brother Jimmy is with the Marlboro minor-bantams. Due to his birthday
falling in August, he is still eligible to perform in this class.
Both boys have been practicing regularly for more than a month. FINGER BROKEN IN RUGY MATCH

suffered two broken lingers on Thursday afternoon in the game with
Woodbridge. Another finger was badly crushed. Following the
accident, Joe Herold filled the vacancy. One Woodbridge player
suffered concussion when he attempted to block Stouffville’s Roger
Stover in an upfield advance. He had to be assisted off the field.
Stouffville Coach, Jim Rehill hopes to add additional strength to his
team as they advance into further league competition. Rick Wedseltoft
who tips the scales at 180 pounds and fleet-footed Jim Spang are
expected to bolster his roster. Any injury to key players would
seriously affect the performance of his club unless some top-notch
replacements are available. H.S. RUGBY TEAM DISTRICT CHAMPIONS
Stouffville’s Junior rugby team advanced into the Georgian Bay
district finals last week when they blanked Woodbridge 7-0. on a
rain-soaked field. The local High School squad took the two-game
opener 14-0. The series sweep brings the district honors to
Stouffville and permits the homesters to move on into further league
competition. Stouffville grabbed a 6-0 lead in the first quarter.
Roger Stover, an offensive powerhouse for the locals, took a hand-off
from quarterback John Roxborough and barged across the goal line for
the only touchdown of the game. The “trap play” perfected by the
Stouffville team caught the Woodbridge squad completely by surprise.
Both Roger Stover and Don Eddington had made big gains up the field
before Stover finally romped across for the T.D. Ross Pattenden’s
convert was missed.
Stouffville counted an additional point in the first half to complete
the scoring. Ross Pattenden’s punt was pulled down behind the
Woodbridge goal line. The player was tackled for a point.
Five Woodbridge passes were intercepted, three by Don Eddington and
one each by Roger Stover and Ron Wideman. Eddington, Stover and
Roxborough were Stouffville’s offensive stars. Bill Sanders, Bill
Ratcliff and Roger Todd held the fort on defence.
As we go to press, no word is yet available on Stouffville s next opposition. GAYMAN SPARKS CLIPPER TO 8-3 WIN OVER MILTON
If Lawrence “Debbie” Gayman is a sample of the hockey players that can
be produced by Unionville, then the management of the Clippers should
keep a keen eye on the Jets over-age juniors at the conclusion of each
season. The agile puck-juggler was the games number one star on
Tuesday night as Stouffville racked up an 8-3 victory over Milton.
The Intermediate schedule officially opens on Nov. 1st. The Clipper’s
home opener is on Nov 4th.
Never Stopped
From the opening whistle Gayman never sped skating. He dodged and
shifted from one end of the arena to the other. Although he suffered
a nasty crack on the head in the dying minutes of the contest, he was
back in his regular position at the final bell. In addition to firing
a three goal hat-trick, he picked up a pair of assists.
Receives Applause
Gayman’s third goal was a picture effort. He charged across the
blueline and attempted to split the Milton defence. His shot was
stopped but the puck was not cleared out of the Merchant’s zone.
Winger Don Cosburn grabbed the loose disk and planted it on Gayman’s
stick. Not to be denied in his return rush, he flipped the puck into
the top corner of the cage as goalie Lever sprawled across the crease.
His performance was loudly applauded by 138 partisan Stouffville
fans.
Kid Line
Stouffville has a real hockey “kid line” in the making. Gayman at
centre, flanked by ex-Jet, Stan Thornington and Don Cosburn formed a
fast-stepping trio. Geo. Carey spelled off both Cosburn and
Thornington on various occasions. The foursome accounted for five of
Stouffville’s eight goal production.
Weak Defence
The Clippers appeared woefully weak on defence. Archie Forfar was
pressed into service and played exceptionally well. Aside from
breaking up numerous Milton offensive attacks, he potted one goal.
Neither Ron Guy nor George Stark were present to bolster the
rearguard. Russ Forfar working in the coach’s box in the absence of
Jack Watson used both netminders, Joe Carpenter and George Wilkins.
Both played in the well. Wilkins continues to boast the best record.
He didn’t yield a single goal and blocked a number of close-in Milton
scoring drives. Carpenter had little chance to stop Milton’s opening
period tallies. Art Melanson intercepted a Stouffville pass-out and
whipped it into the twine. Six minutes later, Jim Hoffert broke into
the clear and scored to give the visitors a 2-0 edge.
Twenty-One Penalties
The officials handed out a total of 21 penalties, twelve to the
Clippers and nine to Milton. The majority of the exchanges were for
minor infractions. vanderpol of Stouffville and Brush of milton
squared off in a fistic feud late in the contest but they pated
without damage being done. Dance, of Milton, was banished to the
dressing room with a game misconduct when he questioned the official’s
ruling on the penalty.
Lack Scoring Touch
Stouffville’s Ted Vanderpol and Phil Nicholas must be wondering if an
invisible guard shrouds the opposition’s net in the local arena. A
lack of goals that plagued both players in the Intermediate finals
last Spring, still seems to haunt them. Although they had a number of
fine chances on Tuesday night, they couldn’t hit the target.
Vanderpol bounced the puck off the goal post on two occasions. He
notched three goals at Milton last week.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. BRADFORD EDGES CLIPPERS 8-7
Clipper netminder Joe Carpenter was admitted to the Brierbush Hospital
with a possible fractured pelvis on Tuesday night. He suffered the
injury midway through the third period and had to be carried off the
ice. Dr. D. Brodie of Stouffville conducted x-rays immediately
following the accident. The player was removed by ambulance to his
home at Sutton. It was expected that he would be admitted to the York
County Hospital, Newmarket on Wednesday morning.
Freak Accident.
No players were actually involved in the mishap. Carpenter dropped to
the ice to block a low shot. Bradford’s Don Gibson picked up the
rebound and lifted it into the twine. The Stouffville netminder,
suffering noticeable pain, could not arise after the play was
completed. He was carried bodily from the ice by his team mates.
Placed on a stretcher in the dressing room, he was transported to
hospital. George Wilkins took over in the Clipper cage and finished
the game.
Three Hour Game
It took slightly more than three hours to complete the three-period
game. The contest was started at 8:50 and completed at 11:55. A rash
of penalties in the second period
delayed the game for some time, while the timekeeper and officials
unravelled a maze of names and figures. At one point the penalty box
was jam-packed with players from both clubs. The greater portion of
the second period was run off with either one team or the other
playing at a manpower disadvantage.
See-Saw Contest
Bradford were the ultimate winners of a see-saw game. At the final
whistle, they held an 8-7 goal edge. The visitors were worthy victors
with the exception of the first period and the final stages of the
last frame, Bradford showed more drive than the homesters. They took
more advantage of the breaks and were quick to clear the puck out of
their own zone when hard pressed.
Goal-Scorers
Phil Nicholas and Stan Thornington each potted a pair of goals for the
Clippers. Harold Hodgson, Grant Edwards and Gus Almstead fired
singles. Paton notched a pair for the
for the winners. Winters, Booth, Vasey, Gibson and Dowdell blinked
the light for the other Bradford tallies.
Over-Hand Right
About the most sensational Stouffville individual effort was turned in
by Bud Lehman. Although his action could hardly be classed as hockey,
it did provide a little colour and excitement to an otherwise drab
contest. The skirmish occurred in the second period. Just when it
appeared certain that the officials had the combatants separated,
Lehman took exception to further threats by his adversary. With one
motion he lashed out an overhand right that caught his rival square on
the forehead. Although the blow dazed the Bradford player, he failed
to go down for the count. The referee, on the other hand counted out
a four minute penalty for Lehman. He added an extra ten minutes to
the double minor ,when the stouffville forward directed a few
uncomplimentary remarks at the official. A total of 24 penalties were
meted out during the sixty minute game.
Late Game Rally
Stouffville displayed their best hockey in the final minutes of the
game. Fighting with their backs to the wall behind an 8-6 score, the
homesters showed more offensive power than at any other point in the
contest. Geo. Carey sailed in on the Bradford net but was blocked on
a nice stop by Copeman. Bud Lehman bounced the disk off the goal post
with two minutes remaining. The Clippers finally poked the puck into
the twine. When it appeared possible that Stouffville might close the
one goal gap, Russ Forfar was handed an interference penalty. Playing
five men to six, Stouffville were resigned to a defensive role and
failed to get the puck past centre ice. SWIMMING POOL HAD NEARLY 400 REGULARS
Stouffville Swimming Pool operated by the Stouffville Lions Club had
approximately four hundred regular customer ticket holders during the
season just concluded. The actual figure was 398 and this number was
made up of family season tickets — 38; Adult instruction class — 5;
students –229; children — 111; teen-age and adult instruction group
— 398.
Actually the pool was far from overcrowded at any time and Manager
A.H. Williams strongly urges that steps be taken to advertise the pool
more extensively in 1959. The largest number of persons using the
pool on any one day was July 15th, when the
attendance was 308; on July 24th it was 300, and on July 2nd, 279.
With the exception of these few days, there was more than ample
accommodation at all times.
The cash swimmers paid a total of $l,684.65 during the season.
Children’s instruction receipts amounted to $573.00 and family tickets
$562.50. Largest other receipt account was children’s season tickets
which amounted to $482.50.
Total receipts at the pool amounted to $3,486.20 and total
expenditures were $3,876.28 showing a deficit on the years operations
of approximately $400.
However Manager Williams has pointed out that there were capital
expenditures such as painting of $353.00 which would not be necessary
every year and should not normally be charged against the current
years operation. tThe local pool operates with the full quota of
lifeguards as recommended by the Red Cross with an expenditure of
$1,312.05. Management costs were $785.00 and instruction $460.00.
Miscellaneous expenditures including a local hydro account of $105.00
amounted to $756.08.
The instructional classes were expertly handled which resulted in a
high percentage of graduates from the various classes which was most
gratifying.
Mr. Williams’ recommendation of a keener advertising program to
encourage outside residents to use the pool was placed before the
local Lions Club. The owners and operators and it is expected that
the Committee for Community Betterment will be acting on some of the
suggestions in this connection. KELLY WATSON TOPS BOWLER WITH 273
Mrs. Kelly Watson vaulted to the top of the individual point-scoring
race in the ladies’ bowling league with a fine 273 single last week.
In addition, she rolled a high triple score of 576.
A total of eight ladies broke the 200 point barrier. They ranked as
follows: Marie Foote, 232; Vi Booth, 213; Ann Lehman, 212; Velma
Banks 207; Eleanor Wagg, 206; Reta Laushway, 201; and Mary Miller,

The Dimwitts continue to set the pace atop the group with a 17 point
total. The
Bloopers kept pace with their front- running rivals with a four point
gain for a total of 15 points. The Rockets vacated the cellar
position with a three point gain. They moved up from the eighth

each picked up one goal and one assist. Randy Mole and Donald Smith
were the other Ranger marksmen. Jack Shields and Raymond Rioux
notched single goals for the Bruins.
The win for the Rangers moved them into a first place tie with the Red

Red Wing Captain, Ronnie Castle was the spark plug in Detroit’s slim
one-goal win. He blinked the light for one unassisted tally and set up
Bruce Mehaffey for the winner. The last goal was a picture effort.

This week, BRUCE MEHAFFEY, Ringwood’s hockey ball of fire, is the

Bruce scored two goals to lead his Red Wing team to a 4-2 victory.
Since his start in peewee ranks, Bruce has been one of the league’s
most prolific performers. He is indeed, a worthy winner. STRICTLY DOLLARS AND CENTS
The refusal by the Management of the Buffalo hockey club to permit
Stouffville’s Bob Hassard to make the Russian tour with the Kelowna
Packers, is simply another indication of the big business operation
connected with pro and semi- pro organizations. Bob Hassard is
strictly a bundle of money as far as Buffalo is concerned.
Professional teams sell trade and buy their talent like an attendant
at an auction sale. The party’s name, position, family, etc has no
real meaning to them. A player is merely a piece of property that
cost “X” dollars and cents. They will sacrifice the desires and
wishes of their possession in order to obtain some financial return
for their investment. Nothing else matters.
I don’t believe the Bison management is vitally interested in
obtaining the services of Hassard. Riding high atop the A.H.L., they
lead their nearest rival by six points. It is unlikely that they
would place a midseason recruit in a key position while the club is
currently setting the group on fire. My bet is, that they would
attempt to secure a few thousand dollars from the highest bidder. He
might wind up playing with either Cleveland, Providence or Rochester.
I believe Bob was wise in “sticking to his guns.” No doubt he was
disappointed in missing the Russian-bound tour but on his return, what
then? Apparently, he could see little future in returning to semi-pro
ranks. A family home and a secure position are important factors to
the individual, if not to the professional money-makers.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….Coach
Jack O’Reilly of the Kelowna team expressed disappointment in Buffalos
refusal to release Hassard. He admitted that his club lacked the
necessary professional talent to match the skill of European players.
He noted that Whitby were permitted to use Sid Smith, Jean Paul
Lamlrande and Connie Brodin to strengthen their roster. The latter
two returned to pro ranks after the tournament was completed. Bob
Hassard would not agree to a release with “strings attached.” He had
decided previously not to play in the AHL this winter. He returned
this week to his position with the Thos. Burkitt Insurance Agency,
Stouffville.

Saturday afternoon I witnessed one of the finest examples of school
spirit and good sportsmanship that I have seen for some time. Any
team that would endure the conditions that prevailed in the district
football final here in order to uphold the honour of their school
banner is certainly deserving of high praise. The same must be said
for the Oshawa opposition.
The gridiron drenched by an all-day rain was turned into a sea of mud.
Minutes after the opening kick-off blackened faces and uniforms
completely wiped out the identity of individual players. In spite of
these conditions the local quad put up a torrid battle against a
heavier rival club. Only in the fourth quarter did Oshawa break
through to score their game-winning touchdown. It was a rather
disappointed group of local boys that trudged wearily off the field at
the final whistle. They quietly unrolled their sodden uniforms and
headed for a well-earned shower. In an adjoining room the exuberant
Oshawa team gave vent to their feelings and rightly so. It’s great to
be a winner but the Stouffville team looked good even in defeat.
Coach Jim Rehill expressed the feelings of every rain-soaked fan when
he commented, “ It was a tremendous team effort.”
The cheerleaders, Pat Buckland, Barb Frisby, Janette Montgomery,
Mardell Willis, Jean Winterstein, Caroline Ogilvy and leader Karen
Lewis, too showed amazing courage. They endured the elements
throughout the entire game and not once did a single girl leave the
field. Oshawa boasted no cheering section. The colourful group
displayed fine sportsmanship when at one point in the contest, they
sounded a cheer for their High School rivals. The Oshawa players
expressed much appreciation of this sportsmanlike act. The
Stouffville team were the losers, but their determination and spirit
has gained them a prominent place in my books. STICKS FOR STARS

afternoon, blanking Stouffville District High School 6-0. The Junior
“B” title match was played in Stouffville.
Unfavourable weather and ground conditions hampered the efforts of
both teams. An all-day rain transformed the field into a sea of mud.
At half time uniforms were so badly smeared that spectators found it
difficult to identify the players. Large pools of water spotted the
gridiron. Some of the boys took advantage of the nature-made ponds to
wash the grime from their hands. In spite of the inclement weather, a
good crowd was in attendance.
Due to the condition of the field neither team could display any
variety of football skills. Passing was almost impossible from the
opening whistle. Ball carriers found it difficult to control the
pigskin even on running plays. Stouffville attempted one pass in the
fourth quarter in a last-ditch attempt to even the score.
Oshawa’s lone touchdown came in the fourth quarter. Full back Larry
Williams, the team captain, plunged seven yards to score. The T.D.
resulted from four consecutive first downs with less than eight
minutes left in the game.
Stouffville, although outweighed, turned in a valiant effort against
the Motor City squad. Roger Stover, Don Eddington, Rick Wedseltoft,
John Roxborough and John Corner were five of the local’s best
performers. The visitors were aided by much stronger bench strength.
They dressed 30 players while Stouffville could field only eighteen.
Donevan Collegiate was erected only recently. It is their first entry
into COSSA playdowns. It marked Stouffville’s initial competition in
the district finals. Due to an expected enrollment increase, Donevan
will be forced to compete in ‘A’ class next year. The majority of
Stouffville’s players will still be eligible for Junior ‘B’..
clippers stage 5 goal rally, but lose 10-7
Displaying a wide-open brand of hockey a total of 17 pucks were dumped into the
Stouffville and Bradford nets on Tuesday night. The Marshmen staved
off a five goal rally to come out on the top end of a 10-7 victory.
The Clippers deserved a better fate. As a team they skated hard from
the opening whistle and in less than one minute they held a 1-0 lead.
The roof fell in, however, as Bradford rallied for five straight
goals. They held a 7-2 advantage going into the second period.
Bradford triggered home 3 tallies in the middle frame before
Stouffville started their up- hill rally. The Clippers countered with
five unanswered markers, two in the late stages of the second period
and three more in the third. It wasn’t enough, however, to pull a
much-needed victory out of the fire.
Geo. Wilkins in the Clipper had a bad night. He looked weak in the
first period when Bradford rifled five past him in eight minutes. On a
number of occasions the defence allowed Bradford to walk in
unmolested. Wilkins had little opportunity to hold the fort. In
other instances, however, he fanned clean-cut shots.
Don Gibson and Jim Patton potted a three goal hat for the winners.
Fraser Dunn netted a pair. Ortie Thoms and Dave Harvey fired singles.
Stouffville’s seven tallies were split among seven players. Harold
Hodgson, Ronnie Guy, Bud Lehman, John Ross, Grant Edwards, Lawrence
Gayman and Kevin O’Connor were the Clipper marksmen. John Ross was
Stouffville’s best. Bud Lehman looked much improved over previous
home efforts. Mark Mills has been added to the local’s rearguard and
played well.
On Saturday night the Clippers journey to Collingwood and the
following Tuesday Georgetown will be the visitors here.
wings win on mehaffey’s hat trick
The Red Wing’s Bruce Mehaffey went on another goal-scoring rampage on
Monday evening and pumped three goals into the Boston net. Detroit’s
6-1 win over the Bruins kept them in the first place position, two
points ahead of the Hawks. Chicago blanked the Rangers 2-0 in the
other Peewee contest.
Paul Lintner picked up assists on Mehaffey’s three tallies. John
Heaton combined with Lintner and Mehaffey on the Wing’s fifth goal.
Barry Hiltz with a pair and Bill Lehman were the other Detroit
marksmen. Ronnie Castle picked up one assist. John Willis scored the
lone Boston tally.
In the Hawk-Ranger game, Wayne Crowder and David Whittlngton fired
single goals to give the Chicago team a two-point victory. FORSYTH FIRES HAT TRICK FOR HORNETS
Roger Forsyth regained his goal scoring eye on Thursday night and
fired three tallies into the Buffalo cage. Forsyth’s hat trick
performance paced Pittsburg to a win over their rivals. In addition
he picked up an assist on another goal. Francis Haylow was the
marksman. Eric Neilson picked up an assist on one of Forsyth’s three
markers. Ted Redshaw combined with Billy Payne to net the first
Buffalo tally. Garry Gall completed the team’s scoring.
Leafs 3, Canadiens 2
Ross Brown was the big gun for the Leafs as they squeezed out a tight
3-2 victory over the Canadiens. The agile forward potted a pair of
goals and assisted on a third. Barry McLean blinked the light on the
other tally. Bill Corner notched one for the Canadiens and Frank
Taylor fired the other. Keith Foreman assisted on Taylor’s tally. SPORTS BITS
Harold Hodgson has been re-appointed captain of the Stouffville
Clippers. Phil Nicholus and Ronnie Guy are his assistants.
Mr. Gar Lehman an ardent local hockey promoter, was a recent winner of
a $5.00 lucky draw at the Arena. Mr. Lehman immediately turned the
money into the Clipper benefit fund. Mr. Arthur Heaton was the lucky
winner on Tuesday night.
Billy Hoover, a fine Peewee player in the Lions League a few seasons
back, has been signed to play with Mr. Tom Wedseltoft’s Midget entry.
He attended a workout on
Friday evening and impressed Coach Bill Lennox with his play.
Mark Mills, a hard-skating Agincourt rearguard, has been acquired by
the Clippers. He played hereon Tuesday night against Bradford.
In an effort to strengthen a weak defence, Coach Jack Watson of the
Clippers has acquired Doug Vipond. He will play here next week
against Georgetown. a lacrosse player with Brooklin in the summer,
“Tip” should rapidly round into shape. PORT RALLY BEATS LIONS‘ MIDGETS 4-2
The Stouffville Lions Midget team suffered a 4-2 setback at the hands
of Port Perry in an exhibition game Thursday evening. The homesters
held a 1-0 lead going into the third period and again moved out front
2-1 at the eight minute mark of the final frame. Port Perry struck for
three unanswered tallies within the space of six minutes to sew up the
win.
Claremont’s Stan Barclay blinked the light at 2:45 of the first period
on a pass from Ken May. The second period was scoreless. At 1:15 of
the final frame, Port Perry broke the ice. Frank Tobin hit the target
to make it 1-1 at 8:05. Warren Hendricks put Stouffville out front
again with less than 8 minutes left in the game. Port Perry pulled
back on even terms. Geo. Carnochan lit the light at 12:45. Two quick
Port tallies salted the game away for Port. Gary Porter and Ivan Luke
were the marksmen.
A trio of Bantams played well for Stouffville. Barry McLean, Jim
Miller and Roger Forsyth worked on one line. Warren Hendricks was a
pivot performer between winger. Brian Wilkes and Wayne Hamilton. Jim
Caldwell in the Stouffville net, the visitors off the score until the
fateful third. WILL DEFEND JR. TITLE IN ’59 — COACH
“We will defend our Junior baseball championship next year,” said
Murray Stewart, coach of the Stouffville Cardinals. Coach Stewart
spoke briefly at a club banquet and presentation held in the Masonic
Hall on Thursday evening. The Cards defeated Wheatley to win the
Provincial title.
“We waited for 4 years to win a championship,” coach Stewart said,
“they’re a great bunch of boys.” He noted that his club had both the
desire and spirit, a combination that is necessary for a championship
team. He agreed that his players had great baseball ability. He said
he was confident that his club could compete in any Junior league in
Toronto. Both he and Manager Harold Hodgson thanked their supporters
for their assistance throughout the summer.
eDp. Reeve Gar. Lehman and councillor Ken Wagg presented the players
with gold engraved wrist watches, a gift from the town. Reeve Elmer
Daniels was also present. He commended the club for bringing a
championship to Stouffville. Councillor noted that the boys had
proven themselves to be great and great team men. It is Stouffville’s
first baseball title in more than twenty years. The coveted trophy was
on display.
Players present at the dinner were — Bob Stover, Harry Barber,
Lawrence Wideman, John Little, Ted Suzuki, Gord Eckardt, Don Haynes,
Ross Madill, Lynn Taylor and Murray Holden. Absent were Eric Barber
and Glenn Jackson. Team captain, Don Haynes presented coach Murray
Stewart with a gift on behalf of the club.
Following a turkey dinner complete with all the trimmings, Mr. Arthur
Latcham displayed a number of feats of magic. A lengthy sports film
rounded out the evening’s
entertainment. LADIES BOWLING LEAGUE

This week our All Star Award goes to Ronnie castle, speedy forward and
captain of the Red Wings in the Lions Peewee League. On Monday
evening, Ronnie caught fire and scored four goals to lead his team to
a 7-1 victory. A tireless skater, Ronnie is one of the most
enthusiastic performers in the four team group. He may select his All
Star hockey stick from Hendricks’ Hardware Store, Main Street,
Stouffville.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. CORNER PACES CANADIENS WIN WITH 4 GOALS
Bill Corner was the spark plug behind the Canadiens attack on Thursday as they
romped to a 6-3 win over the Hornets. The hard-skating forward
collected four goals and picked up one assist. Jim Harper and Frank
Taylor each netted singles. Roger Forsyth with a pair and Francis Hay
ow were the marksmen for the Hornets.
There were two penalties in the contest, one to Bruce Browning for
high sticking and one to Francis Haylow for charging.
Buffalo 4, Leafs 3
Buffalo’s four tallies were evenly divided among four players. The
Leafs bowed to Buffalo 4-3. Garry Gall, Brian aMdlll, Bill Payne and
Tom Benson blinked the light for the winners. Barry McLean, Ross
Brown and Larry Taylor were the goal-scorers for the Leafs. Bill
Brown received a two-minute tripping penalty. David James was
penalized for holding the puck. CLIPPERS LOSE TO GEORGETOWN 4-2; RHODES BLOCKS 51
An ex-Stouffville netminder, Jack ‘Dusty” Rhodes came back to haunt
his mates in a Georgetown uniform on Tuesday night as the Raiders
chalked up a 4-2 victory. The agile puckstopper blocked 51 shots from
the sticks of Clipper forwards. At the other end of the ice
Stouffville’s George Wilkins turned aside 41 drives.
Both Rhodes and Wilkins play ed well between the pipes. It was a
sharp reversal of form for Wilkins who looked rather weak in a
previous home encounter against Bradford. Although Rhodes was peppered
with 51 pucks, at least an additional 50 shots missed the target. Many
more were blocked by Georgetown defencemen.
On the night’s play, Stouffville looked the better club. They
outskated the visitors from the opening whistle and at worst they
deserved a split in the points. Rhodes proved to be the main
stumbling block in the path of their seasons initial home win. The
clippers move over to Bradford on Friday night and entertain
Collingwood here on Dec. 2nd.
It took Georgetown’s Ron Dixon only 23 seconds to put the visitors out
front in the first period. Less than four minutes later Kevin
O’Connor evened the count on a pass from line-mate John Ross. Bud
Lehman made it 2-1 for Stouffville from Phil Nicholas.
With equal rapidity in the second frame, Georgetown sifted through the
Stouffville
defences to pull back on even terms. Bud Varey deadlocked the score
after only 17 seconds had ticked by. Goals by Bob Hall and Jerry
Inglis sewed up the win for the Raiders.
Harold Hodgson had two excellent opportunities to score in the final
frame but on each occasion Rhodes held the fort. In the early
minutes, he kicked out a blazing drive and nonchalantly scooped up the
rebound with his gloved hand. Late in the game, Hodgson found himself
parked near the crease but once again Rhodes turned his drive aside.
Kevin O’Connor also had two good chances. One wide-open shot missed
the cage and another was blocked. Stouffville’s Geo. Carey slapped a
hot shot that caromed off Rhodes’ pads into the corner in the second
period. Almost half of Rhodes saves were in the final frame. He
blocked 22 shots.
Wilkins finest stop came late in the second period when a Georgetown
forward broke in to the clear at the Stouffville blueline. His
corner-labelled shot was pulled out of the air by Wilkins in
sensational style. It was by far the best game of the season for the
local Clippers in spite of the loss. ROLLS 277 SINGLE
Mary “Pickle” Cole was in top form at the local alleys last week as
she topped all rivals in the individual point-scoring totals. In
addition to chalking up a 277 single, the agile athlete collected a
fine 622 triple, tops in that department also.
It was not an easy singles win for “Pickle.” Gaye Rennie made a good
attempt to hit the highest mark and fell only 4 points short of her
rival. Gaye rolled a 273. The next runner-up was Joan Cadieux with a
235. Marie Foote, Mary Miller, Ann Lehman, Helen Hassard and Ruth Lee
followed in that order. Each bowler topped the 200 barrier. WINGS ROUT HAWKS 7-1; CASTLE NETS 4
Captain Ronnie Castle of the Red Wings hit his mid-season form on
Monday night and rapped four pucks into the Black Hawk net. The Wings
trounced the Hawks 7-1 behind Castle’s four goal spree. Barry Hiltz,
a two-goal marksman last week, picked up three assists on Monday
night. Larry Foote fired 2 tallies for the winners and David Oldham
notched one. Billy Harper scored the lone Hawk goal.
Bruins 2, Rangers 1
Paul Lintner and Bruce Mehaffey teamed up to lift the Bruins out of
the cellar and into a tie with the Rangers in third place. Lintner
potted two tallies. Bruce Mehaffey picked up assists on both goals.
Larry Plaskett blinked the light for the lone Ranger marker. Teddy
Todd was credited with an assist on Plaskett’s tally. CLIPPERS ROUNCE COLLINGWOOD 13-6
The goal-hungry Clippers stepped into the Collingwood arena on
Saturday night and trounced the shipbuilders 13- 6. It was
Stouffville’s initial win of the season. Phil Nicholas and Stan
Thornington each fired a three goal hat trick. Lawrence Gayman potted
a pair. Single tallies came from the sticks of Bud Lehman, Geo.
Carey, Mark Mills, Kevin O’Connor and Pete Lacey. BANTAMS BEAT PORT 5-3 FORSYTH NETS 3
Stouffville’s bantam team, led by forward Roger Forsyth, handed Port
Perry a 5-3 setback on Monday night in an exhibition game. The
contest was staged in the Port Perry arena. Forsyth fired a three
goal hat trick. Linemate Barry McLean potted a pair. Jim Miller, the
other member on the line, picked up four assists.
Coach Hal Gibson used both Bobby Wagg and Wayne Oldham in the
Stouffville net. Stouffville will play host to Port Perry here on
Monday. Dec. 8. MIDGETS DROP OPENER TO AURORA 5-3
Stouffville’s Midget entry in the North York League dropped their
group opener in Aurora last week by a score of 5-3. Three of the
winners tallies were counted while Stouffville was shorthanded. Lynn
McMullen, Grant Foreman and Bob Lehman were the local marksmen.
Leeming with a pair, Wall, Stone and Wright blinked the light for
Aurora.
The contest was highlighted by excellent officiating. The referee
kept the rough play to a minimum and handed out penalties for every
offence.

There are a number of players in the Lions Peewee League who will
never score a three goal hat trick or stick-handle through the entire
opposition to put the puck in the net. The razzle-dazzle stars have
their place but the majority of coaches like the hardworking,
dependable boy who will give his best every time on the ice. In every
game blaiR wagg of the Red Wings is this type of player. In addition
to being a steady hockey player, Blair is a real gentleman in and out
of the arena. A defenceman in the majority of games, Blair hasn’t the
same opportunity to score as his forward line team mates. On monday
night he notched one unassisted tally as his club edged the rangers
3-2. For this feat, plus all-round ability, Blair Wagg is this weeks
selection for the all-star player award. He is the recipient of an
All-Star hockey stick from Hendricks’ Hardware, Main Street,
Stouffville. TURN BACK THE CLOCK
Stouffville can justly boast of a number of above-average Intermediate
hockey players in Harold Hodgson, Lawrence Cayman, John Ross, to
mention only a few. If one could turn back the hands of time
forty-eight years to 1910, other well-known residents were currently
holding the sports spot light. This week Mr. Howard Malloy presented
your writer with a well-preserved photo of the 1910 edition of the
Stouffville hockey club. The following players comprised the line-up
— James Rae, J.G. Mertens, Wm. Sanders, Geo. Martin, Howard Malloy,
Bert Widdifield, E.S. Barker, Alta Burkitt, Steve Yake and F. Lehman.
Many of these men are still active and are familiar figures in town.
If we could look ahead forty-eight years, I wonder what the crystal
would foretell. WHAT’S WRONG
Hockey interest here in Stouffville had dropped to an all- time low.
On Tuesday night at the Clipper-Collingwood game. the sum total of 103
patrons passed through the arena turn-stiles. The rows of empty seats
were grim evidence of a town apparently gone sour on local winter
sport. The old story about television, cost of living, weather
conditions etc has some bearing on sagging attendances, but in my
estimation there’s more to the story than what you read on the cover.
I do not believe in kicking a man when he’s down but to be truthful
the brand of hockey dished up by the local Intermediates this season
is far from sensational. Pair a half-hearted hockey performance with
the numerous other sports obstacles and the result is an empty rink.
I believe that the Clippers are capable of a better hockey show. Many
players who set their group on fire last year have completely bogged
down. No village, town or city will support an entry of this calibre.
This is evident at Maple Leaf Gardens where empty seats are now not
uncommon.
It must be disheartening for the players to perform before a handful
of mildly enthusiastic supporters, but they themselves must shoulder a
portion of the blame. Fans will not pay fifty cents to watch a
shoot-and-chase brand of hockey. They can see that every Friday night
for a mere 35c. If the boys are willing to pull up their socks, they
may still retain their present fandom and even coax a number of
wayward followers back to the rink. If not, then the financial status
of our entry will sink as low as present fan interest.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. TWO BOWLER TIE FOR TOP TRIPLE
Although no bowler equalled Mary Cole’s high single of 277 or high
triple of 622 chalked up last week in the ladies league competition,
two competitors did count identical high triple scores. Marg
McWhinnie and Eve Grove each rolled a 556 triple score. In the high
singles department, Ruth Lee topped the group with a 249. Four other
ladles bettered the 200 mark, Reta Laushway, Winnie Elson and June
Baxter each collected a 205. Ruth Lee ranked well up in the high
triples bracket also with a 550. The Bloopers continue to set the
pace atop the league with 26. CLIPPER TOPPLE BRADFORD 7-4
The Stouffville Clippers stepped into Bradford on Saturday night and
toppled the high-flying motormen 7-4. It was Bradford’s second
straight setback.
Ex-Dixie Juniors, John Ross and Kevin O’Connor paced the Stouffville
attack. Each potted a pair of goals. Stan Thornington, Harold
Hodgson and Bud Lehman fired singles. Phil Nicholas picked up a pair
of assists. GAYMAN TOPS CLIPPER SCORING PARADE
Unionville’s Lawrence “Debbie” Gayman is currently out front in the
Clipper’s individual point-scoring parade. The agile puck-juggler has
collected a total of 5 goals and 11 assists for 16 points. Phil
Nicholas and team captain, Harold Hodgson are deadlocked in the
runners- up position, each with 15 points. Kevin O’Connor and John
Ross follow in that order.
Forward Ted Vanderpol is the club’s bad man with a total of 17 minutes
in the cooler. Bud Lehman has spent 16 minutes in the sin bin. The
latter, however, has now gone five complete games without contracting
a penalty.
December 4 1958 (con’t) CLIPPERS RALLY, TRIM COLLINGWOOD BY 5-3
The Stouffville Clippers chalked up their first victory of the season
before their home town rooters on Tuesday night, staging a late-game
rally. The local squad trimmed Collingwood 5-3 before only 103 frigid
fans.
With the exception of the early minutes in the first period and the
dying stages of the final frame, the Clippers looked like mere ghosts
of their ‘57’58 Ontario semi-finalist club. Their
every-man-for-himself type of play failed to produce good hockey. Any
passing plays they did perfect, which were very few, fizzled out at
the blueline or in the corner. Collingwood were similarly
unimpressive.
With less than three minutes to play in the contest, Stouffville
suddenly came alive and through the Collingwood defences. Geo. Carey
fired the would-be winner into the cage at 18:55 of third period.
Grant Edwards, Stan Thornington picked up on the tally. With thirteen
seconds left in the game, Nicholas and Harold Hodgson teamed up for a
neatly executed goal. Nicholas tipped Hodgson’s goalmouth pass into
the corner.
John Ross, one of the Clippers best players, took the night off to
handle the coaching duties at Unionville. His absence was felt on the
Stouffville front lines. Russ Forfar provided the homesters main
drive and notched one goal. Ronnie Guy and Harold Hodgson fired
singles. Louie Joubert, Allan Grier and Stan Ritchie were the
Collingwood marksmen.
A total of sixty minutes in penalties were handed out by the referee.
There were twenty minors and two ten-minute misconducts. Stouffville
players made nine trips to the cooler and Collingwood served eleven.
Ted Vanderpol collected the additional misconduct detention
questioning the referees decision. MIDGETS BLANK SUTTON 8-0 IN ONE-SIDED GAME
Tom Wedseltoft’s Midget entry broke into the win column on Friday
night with a one sided 8-0 victory over Sutton in a scheduled North
York contest. Although the homesters played below par, they had
little trouble knocking off their inexperienced rivals. Six of their
eight tallies were counted in the second period. They added a pair in
the final frame
Stouffville netminder Glenn Jackson had a comparatively easy night in
turning aside a half-dozen labelled shots. Stouffville forwards on
the other hand, appeared overanxious to fatten their scoring records
and neglected to pass the puck on numerous occasions. Wingmen were
left uncovered but the puck-carrier elected to stick-handle through
the defence rather than pass the disk to his linemate.
There was no scoring in the first period. Roger Stover started the
ball rolling at the two minute mark of the middle frame. Lynn
McMullen picked up an assist on Stover’s goal. At 3:30, Lynn McMullen
blinked the light from Rick Wedseltoft to give Stouffville a 2-0 edge.
Bill Hoover, a two goal marksman, fired his first marker at 5:20.
Grant Foreman assisted on the tally. At the nine minute mark, Larry
McMullen teamed up with Rick Wedseltoft to make it 4-0. Brother Lynn
McMullen potted his second goal of the night at 12:45 with Rick
Wedseltoft once again picking up an assist. Bill Hoover rounded out
the second period scoring parade with an unassisted goal at the
fourteen minute mark.
In the final frame, Claremont’s Bob Lehman moved into Th. scoring
spotlight. At 6:20, he hit the target from Bill Hoover. Less than a
minute later he struck again. Grant Foreman assisted on the game’s
final goal.

Every week Mr. Cec Hendricks offers a brand new All-Star hockey stick
to some Peewee hockey player who performs exceptionally well in the
Lions League. This week the award goes to donald smith of the
Rangers. A dependable performer on both the forward line and defence,
Donald gave his team a split in the points by scoring their only goal
on Monday night. The tie moved the Rangers into a third place
deadlock with the Black Hawks. Donald may select his stick from mr.
Hendricks’ Main Street store any time this week. ALL FOR FREE
On Tuesday evening, Jan. 6th, the management of the Stouffville
Clippers will make a move unprecedented in the annals of local hockey.
They will hold an open house or an open rink for one night and one
night only. Everybody and his brother will be admitted without charge
to witness a scheduled Intermediate ‘B’ match between Stouffville and
Milton. There will of course be a silver collection, where a person
may contribute five cents or a silver dollar.
This is an entirely new scheme and I believe it has merit. It would
be nice to hear the rafters ring again with the cheers and applause of
1000 fans. Although I don’t personally believe that the 50c admission
charge has kept too many fans away from hockey games here. 1 think
it’s a novel idea and one that should be supported by everyone. It
may prove whether there is still a spark of interest left in the local
hockey public or if the soft T.V. chair has eradicated our sports
enthusiasm. With such a generous ofter, I can think of no other
reason to remain at home.
The Clippers are starting to climb. In the past three games there has
been a marked improvement in their performance. If this trend
continues fans are sure to see an exciting contest all for free.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… CLIPPERS TRIM MILTON 11-8 IN SEASON’S BEST HOME PERFORMANCE
The Stouffville Clippers are starting to move. On Tuesday night the
local squad chalked up an 11-8 victory over Milton for their third
win-in-a-row. It was by far the most exciting home encounter of the
season. The homesters can make it four straight with a win at
Collingwood on Saturday night. They face their arch rivals, Bradford
here on Tuesday Dec. 23.
Wide Open
Both clubs played wide open hockey from the opening whistle. The
end-to-end rushes provided the tops in excitement for the fans but it
was a veritable nightmare for both goaltenders. A total of 19 pucks
were blasted between the pipes. In spite of this both netminders
pulled off some excellent stops. Carpenter was especially keen in the
first period and during the early stages of the second when he warded
off many dangerous Milton goal=labelled drives.
Minutes Apart
Many of the goals were scored only minutes apart. Time keeper Lloyd
Turner was one of the most overworked men in the arena. In the second
period, Stouffville rapped three pucks into the Milton cage in less
than two minutes. In the final frame Stouffville struck again for
three tallies in four minutes. Milton also counted goals in quick
succession in the second period. Art Melanson notched one goal at
12:30 and fired another at 13:20. Nicholas In Form
Phil Nicholas, a slow starter for the Clippers, has hit midseason
form. He was a tower of strength on Stouffville’s front line. He
charged up and down the ice like a Sherman tank bowling over any rival
that attempted to block his scoring bids. In two games he has
collected five goals. He potted a pair on Tuesday night. Harold
Hodgson kept pace with team mate Nicholas. He also fired two tallies.
The remaining Clipper goals were single efforts that came from the
sticks of Stan Thornington, Ted Vanderpol, John Ross, Bud Lehman, Russ
Forfar, Grant Edwards and Geo. Carey.
Eleven Points
Milton’s two ace performers, Jack Price and Art Melanson collected a
total of eleven scoring points. Price netted three goals and picked
up two assists. Melanson potted a pair of tallies and assisted on
four. The Milton twosome are currently leading the Int. ‘B’ group in
the individual point-scoring race. Stan Hannant scored two goals.
John Bell fired one.
Gayman Injured
Lawrence Gayman suffered a painful back injury when he slammed into
the goal post during the early minutes of the final period. He was
pulled down on a clean-cut break- away. Milton was penalized on the
play. For a time it was feared that the agile performer might have
suffered a major injury, but an immediate checkup proved no bones were
broken. It is expected he will be lost to the Clippers for at least
one week. The ex-Unionville puck-juggler had enjoyed a good night
prior to the accident, picking up assists on four of Stouffville’s
seven tallies. The milton netminder was also injured on the head when
he and Clipper forward Bud Lehman crashed head-on midway through the
second period. Lehman scored on the play. The goalie returned to his
post after receiving minor repairs.
Team Effort
The Clippers, as a team looked good. Bud Lehman, John Ross, Phil
Nicholas, Harold Hodgson and Geo. Carey played far above some previous
contests. Jim Cruikshank has bolstered a sagging rearguard. Ted
Vanderpol snapped out of his scoring slump. Joe Carpenter looked good
in goal. The victory strengthened Stouffville’s hold on fourth place.
One ‘B’ club will miss a group playoff spot. Collingwood currently
trails Stouffville. Bradford, Georgetown and Milton are the
league-leaders at the present time. The Clippers trail Milton by only
a single point. RULE PENALTY SHOT IN BANTAM GAME
Penalty shots are a rarity in any league but on Thursday night Lions
Bantam action, Mike Cadieux was permitted to take a free shot on the
Leaf cage. His shot was blocked by goalie Wayne Oldham.
The action resulted when Ted Winterfield of the Leafs pounced on a
loose puck inside the goal crease. Oldham had stopped the shot but
had not cleared it away from his net when Cadieux failed to score,
Winterfield was forced to serve a two minute penalty. In Bantam
action, Buffalo and the Leafs battled to a 2-2 tie. Pittsburg downed
the Canadiens 6-4.
Billy Payne counted one goal for Buffalo on a pass from Billy Brown.
Brian Madill
blinked the light when he teamed up with Jimmy Miller. Ross Brown
picked up a goal and an assist for the Leafs. Wayne Crowder assisted
on Brown’s goal. Barry McLean fired the other single tally.
Roger Forsyth continues to dominate the goalscoring department for
Pittsburg. On Thursday he collected four tallies as his club posted a
6-4 win over the Canadiens. Francis Haylow and Eric Neilson potted
singles. Paul Stover and Robert Mole picked up points on assists.
Larry Taylor notched two for the Canadiens. Bill Corner potted a pair
also with assists to Kenny Aida and David Winn. MIDGETS EDGE WOODBRIDGE 4-3, MACMILLAN SCORES 2
Stouffville’s midget team soared to the top of the north york League
on friday night be beating Woodbridge 4-3 in a tight contest. The
local entry is currently tied with Aurora on top of the group.
Larry McMullen took over from brother Lynn in the scoring spotlight
and registered two goals. Lynn McMullen fired five tallies
against Sutton in a previous contest. Larry McMullen’s second goal
was a picture solo effort. He grabbed off a pass from Grant Foreman,
deked two defencemen out of position and parked the puck neatly behind
the Woodbridge netminder. It proved to be the winner.
On the night’s play, there was little to choose between the two teams.
Woodbridge completed some picture passing plays and outshone the
homesters in that department. Stouffville were more content to resort
to individual rushes. Larry McMullen with a pair, Grant Foreman and
Rick Wedseltoft with singles were the Stouffville marksmen. Henry
Mulder potted a pair for the visitors. Frank Ball blinked the light
late in the final frame. Jeff Goofier, Woodbridge, had an excellent
opportunity to deadlock the score in the dying minutes when he romped
in alone on goalie Glenn Jackson. His low drive was kicked aside by
the Stouffville puckstopper. Don Jackson and Merlin Harmon
officiated. THREE BOWLERS TIE FOR SINGLE
The high singles honour was split three ways last week with three
local bowlers attaining an identical score. Betty Wilkins, Ann Lehman
and Ruth Lee each scored a 212. Gaye Rennle was close behind with a
211. Winnie Elson, Reta Laushway, Helen Hassard and Jean Baston all
bettered the 200 mark. Betty Wilkins chalked up the high triple with
a 546. CARSON, DISNEY TOP LEAGUE SCORING
Grant Carson and Lorne Disney are currently deadlocked at the top of
the community hockey league point-scoring race. Both play with
Brougham. Carson’s total comprises 7 goals and 1 assist for 8 points.
Disney has collected 4 goals and 4 assists. Grant Carson is well out
in front in actual goals.
The Brougham trio of Carson, Disney and Glenn Carter are setting a
rapid pace. To date they have totalled 22 scoring points. The trio
has potted 15 goals. Rightwinger Grant Jones of Claremont climbed
into a second place position with a five point outburst on Friday
night. He has now collected 3 goals and 4 assists for 7 points. Ted
Suzuki, Glenn Carter, Don Thomas and Murray Lewis are deadlocked on
the third rung with six points.

LIONS’ MIDGETS UPSET UXBRIDGE
The Stouffville (Lions) Midget team surprised everyone, including
both the opposition and themselves on Thursday night by edging
Uxbridge (Juveniles) 3-2 in a speedy exhibition tilt. Stan Barclay
fired the winner for the homesters at 16:55 of the last period. Wayne
Pennanen. one of the best on the ice, picked up an assist on the
tally. Marvin Betz turned in a spectacular goaltending performance for
Stouffville. In the final frame, he blocked Garry Taylor, Barry Stemp
and Bob Hall in sensational fashion. In the first period, he grabbed
a hard drive from the stick of Bob Faulkner and in the 2nd frame he
blocked a determined bid by John Taylor. Taylor’s bullet shot caromed
off the handle of his stick.
Uxbridge pulled out front at 10:20 of the first period. Goodwood’s
Ron Stewart blinked the light on a pass from John Taylor. Minutes
later Ken Maye of Stouffville had a good chance to even the count but
his drive was stopped by goalie bruce Foote.
Early In the second frame Jim Miller and Roger Forsyth combined on a
nice passing effort. Foote once again held the fort. At 5:55, Wayne
Pennanen broke through alone and made no mistake with a low shot to
the corner. Ken Maye gained an assist on the goal. At the thirteen
minute mark, Roger Forsyth put the Midgets out front. Barry McLean was
credited with an assist on the tally. Uxbridge stormed back to the
score. Dean Evans was the marksman.
Both clubs battled back forth throughout much of final frame but
neither netminder would yield a goal. With than four minutes to
play, Stan Barclay fired the winner. Uxbridge pulled their goalie
with eighteen seconds left in the game, but the strategy failed to pay
off.
Marvin Betz, Wayne Pennanen and Star Feasby were standout performers
for Stouffville. Ron Stewart worked hard for Uxbridge. LIONS‘ MIDGETS BEAT BROOKLIN 6-1
The Lions midget team has shifted into high gear. On Thursday night
they upset an Uxbridge Juvenile team and on Monday they trimmed
Brooklin 6-1. Ken Maye paced the Stouffville attack in Monday’s tilt
firing two tallies. Single goals came from the sticks of Roger
Forsyth, Allan Boyd, Barry McLean and Wayne Pennanen. Bob Campbell
teamed up with Garry Mitchell to spoil Marvin Betz shutout effort.
Betz turned in another fine performance in the Stouffville cage.
Allan Boyd shifted from the North Midget entry to the Lions’ team
played well. Wayne Pennanen worked hard every time out. Norm Tindall
picked up two assists. Other points were collected by Stan Feasby,
Stan Barclay and Peter Stover. As we go to press the team is engaged
in a game with Pickering. Midway through the 1st period, Stouffville
holds a 3-0 lead over their southern rivals. Warren Hendricks, Allan
Boyd and Roger Forsyth were the marksmen. MILLER FIRES HAT TRICK FOR BUFFALO
Buffalo’s Jim Miller was in rare form on Thursday night. He fired
three goals to lead his team to a 5-3 victory over the Canadiens in a
Lions’ League contest. Garry Gall potted a pair. The twosome of
Frank Taylor and Bill Corner provided the spark for the Canadiens.
Taylor scored two goals. Corner notched one and picked up two
assists. Bobby Wagg played a good game in the Canadien’s net but he
couldn’t block all the pucks that were fired at him by Buffalo
forwards. He made three fine stops on shots by Garry Gall, Jm Miller
and Brian Madill.

by Jim Thomas STICKS FOR STARS
Every week local hardware merchant, Mr. Cec Hendricks donates a free
hockey stick to some lucky peewee player in the Lions’ League. For a
fine all-round performance on Monday evening of last week, brent
weldon of the Rangers is the unanimous choice. Although he failed to
score a goal, he was a standout performer every time out. He may
select his All-Star stick this week. TOO MANY WEAK LINKS
“A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.” This slogan could
well be attributed to the Clippers hot and cold hockey performances
this season. There are too many weak links in the team chain. As a
unit, I don’t believe there is a better club in the local circuit, but
it is seldom that coach Watson is able to dress the same players in
consecutive games. For one reason, since the start of the schedule
players have been coming and going with such rapidity that the forward
lines are continually being rearranged.
Players should realize that when they sign a certificate and then quit
at midstream it puts the management and remaining team members in a
bad boat. The situation is even more serious when the player is a
select import. Defenceman Ronnie Guy pulled up stakes when he took
exception to criticism from the Management. After a two week layoff,
he is now back in the lineup. Rearguard Mark Mills played two or
three games and has not been seen since. According to reports, he
desired a salary in exchange for his hockey talent. He has not
obtained a release but does not plan to return. Geo. Stark performed
in three games and gave the Clipper defence a tremendous boost. He
was injured in a game here and has not been back. Rearguard Jim
Cruikshank was given his release but has rejoined the team.
Defenceman Moe Blackwell was to be dropped but has been retained. And
so it goes. Add a few injuries to key players and it is quite
understandable why the Clippers are currently fighting to retain the
final playoff spot.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. LEAFS AND CANADIENS PLAT TO 5-5 TIE
The Maple Leafs and Canadiens battled to a 5-5 draw on Tuesday morning
of last week in Lions Bantam League action ross brown set the scoring
pace for the leafs bagging a pair of goals and picking up one assist.
Single tallies came from the sticks of Barry
McLean, Larry Taylor and Jim Hill. Claremont’s Frank Taylor scored
two goals and assisted on another for the Canadiens. Keith Foreman
kept pace with his team mate by counting a pair. Bill Corner notched
one.
Hornets 5, Buffalo 1
Roger Forsyth continues his high-scoring pace with the Hornets. On
Tuesday he fired two tallies and collected two assists. Francis
Haylow blinked the light for a pair. Arlan Galbraith notched one. MIDGETS “BLOW” LEAD TIE NEWMARKET 5-5
An over-confident Stouffville Midget team “blew” a three goal lead
chalked up in the
early minutes of the first period to split the points in a 5-5 draw
with Newmarket on Friday night. Newmarket are a ‘B’ class club.
Stouffville is rated as ‘C’.
Take the McMullen brothers off the local club and Stouffville’s
goalscoring punch would be cut by fifty percent. The twin combination
has been ma ing a complete runaway of the local’s goal production. It
was the same story on Friday night. They clicked for 4 of the five
Stouffville tallies. Each potted a pair. Grant Foreman teamed up
with linemate Bill Hoover to notch a single.
Within the space of nine minutes, Stouffville held a 3-0 lead. Lynn
McMullen blinked the light on a pass from Rick Wedseltoft at 1:45.
Four minutes later Grant Foreman scored. Larry McMullen netted the
3rd marker from Bob Lehman.
Newmarket rallied to close the gap late in the first frame. Ken
Needler potted a pair.
Larry McMullen made it 4-2 for the homesters at 18:15 but Wilf
O’Reilly kept the Canaltown crew in the contest with his team’s third
goal with only forty-five seconds remaining in the period.
The second period was all Newmarket in the goalscoring department.
Ken Needer, a hat-trick marksman for the visitors, put both teams on
even terms at 8:50. Garry Palithorpe made it 5-4.
Lynn McMullen came to the rescue of the Stouffville squad at 7:10 of
the final frame. Rick Wedseltoft picked up an assist on the play.
There were nine penalties in the contest, four to Stouffville and five
to Newmarket. Joe Crowhurst of Ballantrae has been added to the
Midget roster and made his initial start on Friday night. CLIPPERS BATTLE BRADFORD IN 5-5 OVERTIME DRAW
A timely goal by Stouffville’s Stan Thornington at 6:10 of an overtime
period, gave the Clippers a 5-5 tie with Bradford on Tuesday night of
last week. The seesaw battle was extended when Bradford’s Laurie
Thoms blinked the light at 13:31 of the third period. Stouffville’s
Geo. Carey had previously notched the would-be winner on a nice solo
effort. Midway through the frame his tally was nullified by Thoms
unassisted effort.
In the overtime, Bradford drew first blood. Fraser Dunn hit the
target after only forty seconds had ticked by. Thornington evened the
count five minutes later to split the points.
Joe Carpenter, goal guardian for the Clippers, was nothing short of
sensational throughout the entire game. His brilliant performance far
surpassing the effort of Georgetown’s “Dusty” Rhodes in a previous
encounter was the lone stumbling block in the path of Bradford
forwards. He blocked an estimated 50 shots. Many of these were
clean-cut breakaway. In the final minute of play, Bradford streaked
in on Carpenter but he held the fort. He also turned aside a scoring
bid by the visitors speedy Davis in the final frame. It was by far the
finest netminding display seen in the arena this season.
Stouffville’s five goals were evenly split among these players;
Lawrence Gayman, Kevin O’Connor, John Ross and Stan Thornington.
Tempers flared in the third period. Bradford’s Geo. Davis crashed
into Clipper goalie Joe Carpenter. Harsh verbal exchanges accompanied
a two minute meted out to Davis. Coach Jack Watson of the Clippers
took exception to Davis’ action on the play. Stouffville failed to
take advantage of the additional manpower. CLIPPERS LOSE TO GEORGETOWN 10-5 ON FRIDAY
In spite of some fine netminding by Stouffville’s Joe Carpenter, the
Clippers suffered a 10-5 setback at the hands of Georgetown on Friday
night. Defenceman Russ Forfar potted a pair of goals. Single tallies
came from the sticks of Lawrence Gayman, Harold Hodgson and John Ross.
Blake Ingles netted a three goal hat trick for the Raiders. Bill
Chard with a pair. Bud
Varey, Nick Ferri, Junior Beaumont, Jamie Cunningham and Bill Hewitt were the
Georgetown marksmen.
The Stouffville management protested an officials call on a breakaway
by forward John Ross. The referee halted the game as Ross streaked in
on the Georgetown cage unmolested. According to coach Watson the
official said he heard a whistle in the crowd, so immediately
nullified the rush. If Ross had scored on the play it would have cut
the Raiders lead down to only two goals. WINGS BLANK RANGERS 4-0
The red Wings, paced by captain Ronnie Castle, blanked the Rangers.
4-0 on Dec. 22nd. Both tallies were unassisted efforts. David and
Bill Lehman fired the other goals.
In the other game, the Bruins beat the Black Hawks 4-1. Bruce
Mehaffey potted a pair of goals for Boston. Paul Lintner and Billy
Harmon notched singles. David Whittington teamed up with Robert
Daniels to score the lone Hawk tally.

by Jim Thomas A SMART MOVE
i understand that the OMHA will bring in a new ruling shortly that
will outlaw all boarding behind the end zone red line. I feel that
this is a smart move and one that should be enforced more strictly in
OHA ranks in Bantam, Midget and Juvenile ranks. Many performers with
more brawn than brains take considerable delight in sandwiching a
rival against the back boards for no apparent reason. A lighter
adversary is often a dead duck when caught in such situations. Unless
he is able to sidestep his opponent, he must reluctantly absorb the
bone-crushing jolt. Many an above-average player has been sidelined
through this practice. I hope the officials will enforce the rule to
the letter of the law. STICKS FOR STARS
This week two peewee players will be presented with All-Star hockey
sticks from Mr. Cec Hendricks’ Hardware Store on Main Street. Due to
a switch in the schedule during the Christmas vacation period, one
selection was omitted. This week, we returned to our normal operation
and will make amends by picking two winners. For his fine performance
on Monday Dec. 29th, eric hamilton is our first choice. Although his
Black Hawks suffered a 9-4 defeat, Eric fired two goals and picked up
one assist in the losers cause. He may select his All-Star stick when
convenient. Our second star is paul lintner of the Bruins. As in the
previous week, Paul performed well in spite of a loss chalked up
against his club, he counted two of his teams three tallies. The game
was played on Monday Jan. 5th. Paul may pick up his stick this week. TOE TO TOE
On Tuesday night in the Stouffville Arena we witnessed one of the
instances where an official suffered a rather serious injury when he
attempted to break up a fistic encounter between two rival players. A
stray overhand left warped the nose of referee Promaine and
momentarily dazed the official. The fight continued unabated.
I say that as long as the players are standing on their skates and are
resorting only to bare fists, let them fight it out. Very few
individuals are seriously injured in this way. Should the combatants
fail to the ice and continue the skirmish, then the officials can move
in and assume control. No referee or lineman can afford to be knocked
and battered about by rowdy players. When he steps between two
fist-swinging pugilists. he’s merely asking for trouble. Although he
may be criticized for not separating the sparring performers, it is he
and not his critics who must endure the blackened eyes and loosened
teeth.
In the majority of cases a players bark is worse than his bite. Many
a man becomes a Goliath when he has a half-dozen team mates hanging
onto his arms. Turn him loose and he immediately loses his fighting
spirit. Although this wasn’t the case here on Tuesday night. neither
O’Connor of the Clippers nor Price of Milton inflicted any injury on
his rival. The referee, on the other hand, looked like some escapee
from the Cuban revolution. His taped and bandaged face was in sharp
contrast to a bruised nose and darkened eyes.
Needless to say, the fans appeared to enjoy every minute of the blow
by blow encounter. The official gained few sympathizers for his
action in attempting to break up the brawl. Even with blood smearing
his striped sweater, a number of unthinking spectators continued their
derisive barrage of comments. It’s a rough life. MOST FEARED
It would appear that we have been under-estimating the strength of our
local Clippers. Having talked with a number of coaches and players of
different clubs in the loop, I find that the majority hold more
respect for Stouffville’s front line power than for other teams in the
group. From Georgetown, Milton, Bradford and Collingwood comes the
same story. The trouble is that local fans have watched the Clippers
perform minus some of their topflight stars. Within recent weeks,
they have been piling up huge scores. These have been games where a
full roster has been in attendance. An almost sure bet for a playoff
post, the Clippers may yet make their weight felt when the teams pair
off for the group championship.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. REFEREE’S NOSE IS BROKEN IN LATE GAME BRAW HERE
A long-standing feud between Stouffville’s Kevin O’Connor and Milton’s
Jack Price flared anew on Tuesday night as the two players squared off
in a fist-swinging duel late in the third period. Referee Al Promaine
of Richmond Hill suffered the only injury in the tussle. An overhand
left thrown by Price caught the official flush on the nose. It was
reset by Doctor Donald smith of Stouffville following the completion
of the contest. Stouffville trimmed Milton 12-6.
O’Connor of the Clippers and Price of Milton tangled in front of the
Milton net. The minor skirmish developed into an all-out brawl when
other players joined the melee, Harold Hodgson and John Ross of
Stouffville were also involved. Ross injured his left hand in the
fight. The contest was delayed more than ten minutes before
officials, Promaine and Polly Minton could part the combatants and
administer the necessary penalties. O’Connor and Price were banished
from the game. Two other players received majors. A total of 82
minutes in penalties were handed out by referee Promaine. Of this
total O’Connor contracted 27 minutes. He was pegged with a minor, a
major, a misconduct and a game misconduct. The Price-O’Connor feud
was a carryover of a grudge entertained from Junior ‘B’ ranks.
O’Connor was a former player Dixie Beehives.
The free admission night attracted some 230 fans, the seasons largest
crowd. A silver collection netted $60.00.
In tie goal-scoring department, Ted Vanderpol, Bud Lehman, Geo. Carey
and Harold Hodgson each potted a pair. Single tallies came from the
sticks of Stan Thornington, Phil Nicholas, Ronnie Guy and Grant
Edwards. Milton’s goals were evenly divided through the club. Ken
Brown, Glenn Dance, Gary Hughes, John Heipel, Larry Shuker and
“Cracker” Evans were the marksmen.
Aside from any bruised knuckles or reddened faces gained in the
fisticuffs, three
Stouffville players suffered earlier injuries. Bud Lehman received a
gash on the mouth which necessitated medical treatment. Goalie Joe
Carpenter injured his hand and defenceman George Stark was clipped on
the head with a high stick. Forward Phil Nicholas also injured his
leg but continued in the game.
Geo. Stark returned to the rearguard and was effective every time out.
The win on Tuesday night vaulted Clippers into sole posses of third
place. They trail second place Georgetown by 5 and lead fourth place
Milton by two. Bradford currently lead the league with 13 wins and 2
ties in 19 games. Georgetown will be the visitors on Tuesday Jan.
13th. STICK-SWINGING ATTACK BY ALLISTON PLAYER BRINGS SUSPENSION
The OHA has ruled that Jack Bartlett, rightwinger withe Alliston
“Chevies” should be suspended for three games following a
stick-swinging incident at a scheduled
Intermediate ‘B’ game here on Tuesday night of last week. The
Clippers trounced their rivals 13-1.
The skirmish resulted after Bud Lehman of stouffville took Bartlett
into the boards during the late stages of the 3rd period. The players
exchanged blows and Bartlett was floored. When the officials finally
parted the combatants, Bartlett swung his stick in axe-like fashion
and clipped Lehman on the side of the head. He was immediately
banished from the ice with a match penalty. Lehman received a major.
A total of fifty minutes was meted out during the contest. This
included five and twelve majors and twelve minors in first period.
Kevin O’Connor, Moe Blackwell of Stouffville became involved in a
melee with Alliston’s Stan James and Bill Schell. They each received
five minute detentions in the sin bin.
Throughout the game the Clippers were in complete command. They held
a 10-0 lead before alliston finally hit the target. Wayne Hurst
notched the visitors lone tally. Harold Hodgson paced Stouffville’s
attack with a three goal hat trick. Kevin O’Connor potted a pair.
Singles came from the sticks of Phil Nicholas, Stan Thornington, Bud
Lehman, Ted Vanderpol, Grant Edwards, George Carey, Jim Cruikshank and
Moe Blackwell. TEDDY TODD SWEEPS RANGERS TO WIN
Teddy Todd of the Rangers has become a real artist at scoring goals.
On Monday night, his team edged the Bruins 4-3. Teddy fired all four
Ranger tallies. Danny Irwin and Larry Plaskett picked up one assist
on two of the goals. Todd’s performance was enough to beat the Boston
team in spite of a fine performance by Bruins’ Paul Lintner. Paul
potted a pair of goals and picked up one assist. Rioux notched a
single.
Wings 5, Hawks 4
Blair Wagg is rapidly becoming one of the most potent goal scorers in
the Lions Peewee League. Last week he fired two goals and on Monday
night he repeated his performance in addition to picking up an assist.
His Red Wings edged the Black Hawks 5-4. Ronnie Castle, Larry Foote
and David Oldham were the other Red Wing marksmen. The Hawk tallies
were evenly divided among Pat Smith, Bob Brown, David Whittington and
Eric Hamilton. Mike Roxborough, Charles Yake and Barry Hiltz picked
up assists. Peter Turner was credited with an assist on Ronnie
Castle’s goal. LEAFS THUMP BUFFALO 7-3
The Maple Leafs thumped Buffalo 7-3 on Tuesday of last week. Paced by
Barry McLean with three goals and one assist, the winners chalked up a
one sided victory. Ross Brown and Larry Taylor each potted a pair for
the Bantams. Billy Payne, Gary Gall and Brian Madill fired singles
for Buffalo. Tom Benson picked up an assist on Gall’s tally.
Canadiens 6, Hornets 4
In spite of a three goal hat trick by Pittsburg’s Roger Forsyth, the
Canadiens rolled up a 6-4 win over the Hornets. Bill Corner was a two
goal marksman for the winners. Jim Harper, Frank Taylor, Keith
Foreman and David Winn each notched one. Francis Haylow fired a lone
marker for Pittsburg. UNIONVILLE EDGES MIDGETS 5-4
To grab a three goal lead the first period is a fortunate situation
for most teams for Stouffville’s North York Midgets. It’s a bad
omen. For the second week in a row, the local squad has held a 3-0
advantage, only to see it fade away in the latter stages. It happened
against Newmarket and again with Unionville. Both teams are ranked in
a higher class.
On Friday night Roger Stover, Grant Foreman and Lynn McMullen fired successive
tallies to give Stouffville a 3-0 lead. The Unionville team started
the rally rolling at 17:30 of first period. Ken Beckett broke the
ice. At 15:20 of the middle frame, John Saunders tamed up with Nels
Ham to put the visitors back in the game. Saunders blinked the light
again four minutes later to deadlock the score.
In the final frame Unionville outscored the homesters 2-1. Bill hit
the target from Conlin after only one minute had ticked by. Conlin
fired the winner at 10:45. Johnson picked up an assist.
Although it appeared likely Stouffville might gain a split in the
points when Grant scored from Lynn McMullen the locals could not count
the equalizer. The game marked by a number of flare-ups and fights.
Don Jackson and Merlin Harmon officiated. DON SMITH FIRES GOALS FOR RANGERS
The Ranger’s Donald Smith ran wild in a scoring way on Monday Dec.
29th. The Peewee performer fired four goals and picked up one assist
as his team trounced the Black Hawks 9-4. Brent Weldon also fared well
potting a pair of goals and assisting on two others. Benny Aida.
Larry Plaskett and Danny Irwin collected singles. Teddy Todd picked
up one assist for the Hawks. Eric Hamilton set the pace with two
goals and one assist. Pat Smith and Billy Harper notched singles.
Wings 4, Bruins 0
Three top Red Wing players counted goals to give the Red Wings 4-0
shutout over the Bruins. Blair Wagg was the winner’s top marksman
with 2 tallies. Barry Hiltz and Ronnie Castle fired singles. RECEIVES OMHA APPOINTMENT
Mr. Geo. Haskett, President of the thriving North York Minor Hockey
League and last year on the OMHA executive, has been re-appointed to
this post by President Jack Oakes. Mr. Haskett was unable to a tend
the annual meeting in Toronto and lost his seat by two votes. He has
been one of this districts finest sports promoters both in the ranks
of baseball and hockey. HASSARD JOINS DUNLOPS
Twenty-nine year old Bob Hassard, Lloyd Ave., Stouffville, has been
acquired by the World Champion Whitby Dunlops. The move became
official this week after the local centre-star received his release
from Buffalo of the AHL and the New York Rangers of the NHL.
Hassard’s services were also sought by the Kelowna Packers and
Belleville McFarland.
Wren Blair of Whitby has been negotiating with Buffalo’s Fred Hunt and
New Yorks Muzz Patrick for more than a month in order to obtain
Hassard’s release. Twenty-one year old Bill Kennedy, formerly with
Varsity Blues and Toronto Marlboros has also been acquired by Blair.

Reporters, beware! The dressing room of Stouffville’s North York
Midget entry has been declared out of bounds to local newsmen. The
closed door policy was adopted on Friday night following a scheduled
game with Markham. Your writer was refused admittance by the team’s
sponsor, Tom Wedseltoft, when he attempted to obtain the scoring
statistics from the players. Your writer was also refused permission
to peruse the completed players’ sheet.
Such unorthodox methods as practiced by the local sponsor to my
knowledge set an all-time low standard in sports public relations. To
date, no satisfactory explanation has been given for the “iron
curtain” policy.
In my more than eight years on the local sports scene, I have always
received the greatest co-operation and assistance from team
managements. It is true that coaches have often disagreed or even
resented certain comments I have made, but never once — not once have
they resorted to similar tactics as experienced on Friday evening.
I think it should be pointed out, Sir, that attending hockey games in
the arena three and four nights each week cannot be considered as any
May-day picnic. Although I enjoy the sport, for the most part, I
consider it to be only part of my position and one that 1 will
continue to fill. I do not feel that coverage of North York Midget
games has any
noticeable effect on the Tribune’s audited circulation. Be this as it
may, I will make every effort to attend whenever possible.
Aside from jotting clown a goal by goal report of the game, a reporter
has numerous other methods whereby he may obtain the necessary
statistics. Players, I have found have never been adverse to
providing such information. They enjoy the game and, win or lose,
they are proud of their achievements. It is only natural that they
would desire to see these accomplishments in print. I sincerely hope
so.
Mr.Wedseltoft’s main grievance was. I believe, that “the boys who were
doing the work weren’t getting the credit.” In other words, too much
stress was being placed on the prowess of the goal scorer. I must
admit that there are many important aspects to a hockey game aside
from putting the rubber disk in the net, but time and space will not
permit a play by play written description of a sixty minute game. For
this reason, a reporter must select only the highlights of the contest
for his condensed story. I’m afraid that the chap with the ability to
put the puck in the cage, falls into this class. After all that’s how
hockey games are won.
So, Mr. Sponsor, you may retain your score cards. You may keep the
bar on the door. I don’t really care. But you may be sure the games
will be reported MY way.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. CLIPPERS BLOW LEAD, LOSE TO GEORGETOWN
The season’s largest crowd watched Georgetown spot the Clippers a two
goal lead on Tuesday night, then battle back to claim a thrilling 4-2
victory. Goaltenders Joe
Carpenter of Stouffville and Jack Rhodes of the Raiders pulled off
some spectacular stop throughout the contest. Carpenter was
especially keen in the second period. Rhodes held the fort in the
final frame.
Both clubs were given standing ovations by their respective supporters
on the night’s play. There was little to choose between the teams.
The Clippers held a definite edge in the first period but Georgetown
turned the tide in the second. Stouffville poured in on the Raider’s
net in the final stages of the contest but failed to find an opening
in Rhodes’ armour. Throughout much of the last period, the Clippers
enjoyed an advantage in manpower, but they failed to make it count. A
total of sixteen penalties were handed out by referee Loring
Doolittle. Ten of these went to Georgetown and six to the Clippers.
The Clippers showed too much drive for their opposition in the first
frame. Stouffville forwards forechecked the Raiders to a standstill
and beat their rivals to the puck on almost every play. Their
heads-up performance paid off in a goal by Grant Edwards at 3:35 and
one by Ted Vanderpol at 17:17. Georgetown broke the ice with only
three seconds left in the period. Nick Ferri was the marksman.
Grant “Stubby” Edwards looked best for the Clippers. The Stouffville
forward skated himself into exhaustion every time out. He was used to
kill off penalties in addition to his regular shift. He kept
Georgetown attackers continually bottled up in their own zone with a
fine forechecking performance. He fired the Clippers initial tally
and set linemate Ted Vanderpol up for his team’s second goal.
Defenceman Jim Cruikshank was sitting out a two minute elbowing
penalty at the time.
Although Stouffville pressed the attack in the final frame, they
couldn’t get any direct shots on the Georgetown cage. Goalie Jack
Rhodes was a stonewall in the net and failed to yield a single tally.
Grant Edwards, Geo. Carey, Harold Hodgson and Lawrence Gayman tested
his puck-stopping ability but he held the fort on each occasion. John
Ross blazed a low drive off the goal post.
Two wrongs don’t make a right as forwards Phil Nicholas and Stan Thornington
discovered in the final minutes of the game. Trailing 3-2 and with
time running out, Coach Watson pulled netminder Carpenter from the
cage in favour of an extra recruit. When it appeared likely that the
homesters might sink the equalizer, Georgetown broke free from their
own zone but a drive on the open net was blocked by Harold Hodgson.
Phil Nicholas was banished with a two minute interference penalty to
worsen the situation. Stan Thornington of the Clippers dumped the
puck onto the stick of Georgetown’s Dave Irons at centre ice and he
made no mistake with his breakaway shot. With less than twenty
seconds left in the game, all chances of pulling the contest out of
the fire went by the boards.
The re-acquisition of rearguard geo. Stark has given the Stouffville
defence a real lift. The local rearguard picked up an assist on
the first Clipper goal and came close to scoring another when he
dipsy-doodled through the entire Raider team to Rhodes’ doorstep.
With Thornington of stouffville in the cooler, defenceman Jim
Cruikshank broke up a two-man rush. He took forward Bill Chard out of
the play with a flying tackle. The Clippers journey to Beeton on
Friday night and then play host to Collingwood here on Tuesday.
Stouffville currently holds down the third place position in the
group, trailing Bradford and Georgetown. Milton are in the fourth and
last playoff position. CLIPPERS WHIP MILTON 7-4, O’CONNER NETS 3

on Friday night. In a previous encounter played here on Tuesday night
of last week, Jack Watson’s squad racked up a 12-6 win. On Friday
night they stepped onto Milton’s home ice and registered a 7-4
victory.
Kevin O’Connor paced the Stouffville attack with a three goal hat
trick. Ted Vanderpol, who couldn’t buy a goal during the
schedule’s earlier games, has been a consistent marksman in recent
contests. He potted a pair on Friday. Jim Cruikshank and Bud Lehman
fired singles. Helpel, Hughes, McCann and Melanson were the Milton
scorers. Joe Carpenter continued his fine work in the Clipper cage
and pulled off a number of fine saves. LIONS MIDGETS WHIP AJAX, 7-2
Warren Hendricks, local sharp shooter, who led the ‘57’58 Bantam team
into the Ontario finals last spring, has hit his mid-season form after
a rather slow start. The dipsy-doodle artist is now scoring goals and
setting up his wingers on picture plays. On Thursday night of last
week, the locals humbled Ajax 7-2. On Friday evening they journeyed
to Uxbridge and suffered an 8-2 setback at the hands of Juvenile
opposition.
In the Ajax clash, Warren Hendricks scored two goals and picked up a
pair of assists. Ken May notched one tally and assisted on a marker by
Wayne Hamilton. Right wing speedster Jim Knox hit the target for a
single goal and assisted on Hendrick’s final tally. Joe Herold and
Wayne Pennanen hit the target in the early stages of the contest.
Ajax scored a pair in the final frame.
In the game at Uxbridge, Warren Hendricks and Allan Boyd were the
marksmen for Stouffville. Marvin Betz played well in the Stouffville
cage but could not turn aside an avalanche of Uxbridge shots. BLAIR, WAGG POT PAIR FOR WINGS

Every winter for the past number of years, there has been utter
confusion within the ranks of our local OHA group with regard to team
standings, point-scoring leaders etc. No one was ever able to provide
the weekly press with an up-to-date listing. Fans had little
knowledge of whether their home club was on top of the loop or mired
in the cellar. This season the problem has been solved. Early in the
fall, Russ Forfar of Stouffville decided he would attempt to keep a
game by game record. The plan, of course, met with complete approval
by other group representatives. They agreed to assist and it must be
admitted they have done surprisingly well. Almost weekly, Mr. Forfar
submits group standings and individual scoring statistics to every
paper connected with a local entry. In addition, he has been
responsible for much of the radio, television and daily paper
publicity.
I believe our readers should know about the fine job Mr. Forfar has
done in keeping the records straight. He has performed a work that
has been sorely neglected in the past. HIDDEN TALENT
There may be hidden talent in the Lions Peewee League that as yet has
not been discovered by local coaches. This fact was revealed on Monday
evening when a forward was transformed into a goaltender and became a
star in one night. benny aida, a member of the Rangers, agreed to
handle the netminding chores in the absence of the teams regular
goal-guardian. Due mainly to his efforts, the Rangers edged the Black
Hawks 2-1. For a fine performance in a new role, we are pleased to
select Benny as the all star of the week. He will be presented with a
new hockey stick by Mr. Cec Hendricks local hardware merchant in
Stouffville.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… BEN AIDA IN RANGER GOAL, WIN 2-1
Ranger forward, Ben Aida donned the big pads on Monday night and took
over the goal- tending chores in the absence of the teams regular
netminder. His fine performance
between the pipes was mainly responsible for a close 2-1 vic tory over
the Black Hawks.
Ben Aida’s puck-stopping ability was supported by single goals from
the sticks of Teddy Todd and Donald Smith. Both tallies were
unassisted. Claremont’s Arthur Maxwell netted the lone Hawk goal.
Wings 3, Bruins 1
The Red Wings paced by a pair of goals by captain Ronnie Castle,
downed the Bruins 3-1. John Heaton fired a single for the winners.
Bruce Mehaffey teamed up with Cornelius Matvecky to sink the lone
Bruin marker. MIDGET PLAYER EJECTED IN 2ND PERIOD FIGHT
Willard Peddie of Stouffville and Derek Scott of Aurora were tossed
out of a scheduled North York Midget game here on Friday night after
they became involved in a wild fist- swinging brawl. The action
occurred in the second period. Peddie and Scott entered the fray
after referee Don Jackson had succeeded in partially separating two
other combatants. While proceeding to the penalty box, the players
renewed the skirmish. They were immediately banished from the game.
Displaying a strong passing and shooting attack,, Aurora chalked up a
5-2 victory. The Yonge street squad are a ‘B’ class club. Stouffville
is rated in ‘C’, Goalie Glenn Jackson turned in a superb performance
in the local’s cage. in the second and third periods he was pelted
with pucks but he yielded only three tallies. Chas. Leemlng potted a
pair. Bob Wall, Garry Webb and Brian Knowles notched singles for the
visitors. The trio of Grant Foreman and the McMullen brothers proved
to be the most potent combination for Stouffville. The twins each
fired singles. Keith McDowell and Rick Wedseltoft each had good
chances to score but their shots were blocked. Lynn McMullen caromed
a shot off the goal post in the dying minutes of the game. MINOR CLUBS SPIT WITH UXBRIDGE, PEEWEE LOSE 4-0
Stouffville’s three minor hockey teams sponsored by the Lions Club saw
action on
Thursday night in the annual Young Canada tournament. Stouffvllle’s
Peewee club suffered a 4-0 setback to Unionville but the local Bantam
squad chalked up 5-2 win over Uxbridge. The Midgets bowed to Uxbridge
4-3 in a three period thriller.
Moore Stars
The 4-0 shutout suffered by the Peewee team to a visiting Unionville
team could not be blamed on the performance of goalie Freddie Moore.
Taking charge in the nets for the second half, the Claremont
puck-stopper pulled off a number of fine stops. Unionville had a good
share of the territorial play and only Moore’s fine work held the
opposition to a mere four tallies.
Jeff Gaston notched a three goal hat trick for the winners. Terry
Blundell fired one. Stouffville had a number of good chances to score
but each attempt was turned aside by goalie Allan Gaston. Ted
Redshaw, Tom Benson and brian madill formed one attacking forward
line. David Jackson, Jim Mehaffey and Arlan Galbraith formed another
trio. Ronnie Castle, Bill Lehman and Barry Hiltz comprised a third
threesome. On the night’s play, Moore’s work between the pipes far
overshadowed the performance of his team mates. He blocked pointblank
drives from Jeff Gaston, Robin Hood, Terry Weatherill and Geo.
Prentice. Bill Farthing handled the goaltendlng chores in the first
frame.
Miller Nets Two
Jim Miller fired a pair of goals to pace Stouffville’s Bantam team to

his third goal of the contest. James scored one.

A supposedly friendly fixture developed into a rather heated contest on Wednesday night of last week as Stouffville ladies handed Whitby an 11-8 setback under the lights in the Memorial Park. The local girls gained same revenge for their playoff defeat at the hands of the County Town gals last season. Player Ejected Plate umpire Len Buckland, subjected to a rather unsavory comment from the Whitby bench, immediately ejected one player from the game in the eighth inning. The controversy developed during a threatened Whitby rally. With two runs in and trailing 10-8, Whitby’s Shirley Stone was a strikeout victim. The ball evaded the grasp of catcher Doreen Jarvis and the batter charged down the line to first base. On the throw to first-sacker Joan Lomax to nab the runner. Whitby’s Joan Nicholson, parked on third, raced for the plate. Umpire Buckland called Nicholson out on the throw from first to home. Threaten to Quit The Whitby coach and manager heatedly contested the umpire’s decision and the players loudly protested the call. Following the ousting of one player, the team threatened to quit. A consultation between Stouffville coach Peg O’Neill, the Whitby manager smoothed out the difficulty. Use Two Pitchers Both teams used two pitchers. Audrey Murison started on the mound for Stouffville and hurled three complete innings. Joan Raymer took over in relief and finished the contest. The Stouffville starter was clipped for five hits. She walked 3 and struck out 1. Joan Raymer allowed 7 safeties. She walked 1 and registered 3 strike outs. Isobel Mothersill laboured through seven innings for Whitby. She gave up 14 hits, walked 3 and struck out 2. Gwenn Campbell finished the game. In one inning, she held Stouffville hitless. She walked 1 and struck out 2. Circuit Clout Leadoff batter Doreen Jarvis belted Stouffville’s only home run. The round-tripper came in the second inning with one mate aboard.i In addition she connected for a single in the 7th and drove in two more tallies. Although the homesters’ hits were held mainly to single base blows, Loraine Holdsworth rapped a double into the outfield for the locals’ only other extra base drive. Carol Perrow hammered a four-bagger for Whitby. Betty Jordan tagged a triple. Doubles were poked out by Isobel Eyman and Isobel Mothersill. Single Safeties Almost every player on the Stouffville team connected for at least one hit. Joan Raymer, Donna Seebeck and Mavis Trunk each collected a pair of singles. Other safeties came from the bats of Audrey Murison, Gwen Kennedy, Joan Lomax, Marion Gayman and Joyce Roberts. Strong Defence Marion Gayman turned in a strong defensive game at third base for stouffville the local infielder perfected five putouts in the 7th inning. She halted a threatened Whitby rally with a sparkling double play. She grabbed a line drive from the bat of Isobel Mothersill and fired to first-sacker Joan Lomax to pick off Carol Perrow. Around the Order Stouffville batted completely around the order in the seventh inning. They pushed four runners across the plate and left two mates stranded. Joan Lomax and Marion Gayman started the rally rolling with singles. Betty Brooks infield grounder was bobbled to load up the sacks. It appeared unlikely that the homesters wouldn’t chalk up a run when Joyce Roberts flied out to left field and Mavis Trunk hit into a fielders choice. Doreen Jarvis lashed a single through the infield to score Gayman and Brooks and on an other infield error on Loraine Holdsworth’s ground ball allowed two more to cross the plate. Whitby never recovered to pull back on even terms. BOWLER WIN KAISER TROPHY

Mervin Watts, Mrs. Earl Beare and Mrs. Elgin Wagg of Stouffville who had a score of 46 and a plus of 11 won the prizes for one win. BANTAMS TRIM RICHMOND HILL 7-3
Wilf McWhinnle’s Bantam team chalked up a 7-3 win over Richmond Hill in a scheduled North York contest here on Monday evening. John Roxborough’s bat continues to connect for important Stouffville safeties. He whacked out a pair of hits in three trips to the plate. He is currently the club’s top batsman with an average of .360. Norm Galbraith also had a fine night at the plate with three hits. His average is .325. Brian Wilkes started on the mound for the homesters and worked four innings. Glenn Jackson finished the game. Second baseman Wilf Ludlam suffered a sprained ankle when he stepped on a first base peg. The injury sidelined the infielder for the remainder of the contest. Ronnie Ludlam, a younger brother, took over the position and performed well. He completed three fielding plays and connected for a pair of hits. Marvin Betz completed the battery replacing the injured Jim Miller
SPORTS SHORTS by Jim Thomas BELOW STANDARD Although the Doug Laurie jJrs. competitors in the Leaside circuit turned in a fine exhibition of baseball in the local park on Tuesday night, I personally felt that their performance fell far below the standard that one would expect of an ‘A’ class club. Our Cardinals could quite easily have upset the favoured visitors. A couple of costly errors in the sixth inning started their rally rolling and before it could be halted the contest was in the bag. I must admit that the fielding of the Leaside crew was excellent. They handled their gloves like young pros and their throwing judgement was letter perfect. I felt, however that there was much to be desired in their hurling choice. Ken Lawrence displayed as much or more wildness than any moundsman that has appeared here this season. For a performer, who according to reports is already linked with the Maple Leafs, he has much to learn. A temperamental type, on one occasion he refused to take a throwback from his own catcher, and let the ball roll out to second base. His mate in turn rolled it back. He issued 9 walks and hit two batters. Both Stouffville runs were walked in. One thing in his favour, the Leaside hurler has speed, loads of it. At times it appeared as if he was attempting to burn the ball through his catcher, umpire Buckland and the backstop screen. On the majority of occasions, however, the harder he threw the wilder he became. The visitors were also somewhat disappointing at the plate. Until the fatal sixth they were able to scrape only four hits off hurler Holden. Many of the batsmen were completely baffled by both Holden and Barber. For players, who supposedly face some of the best junior twirlers in the business, they appeared rather weak. Perhaps its just another case where our hometown club is underrated. Perhaps the Cards could hold their own in the Leaside ‘A’ league. They didn’t appear to be playing above their heads on Tuesday night.

LADIES TEAM THUMPS RICHMOND HILL 32-17
A strengthened Richmond Gill girls team met an even more experienced Stouffville club on Wednesday night of last week on the Yonge Street diamond. The result was much similar to the first meeting between the teams. Although Stouffville racked up a 32-17 victory, they were forced to come from behind to win. Markham’s Joan Lomax started on the mound for the locals and worked four innings. Joan Raymer took over in relief and finished the game. At the end of the first inning Richmond Hill held a 5-4 edge the homesters made it 18-4 when struck for 13 runs in the second. Not to be outdone Stouffville came to chalk up 21 runs in the third. Betty Brooks and Doreen Jarvis were the power batsmen for the winners. Each player hammered out single home runs. LOCAL TRIO WINNERS IN OPENING ROUND BOWLING PROV. PLAYOFFS
Representatives from Lawn Bowling clubs in the southern half of District 13, met at Claremont last week for the first round of the provincial ladies’ lawn bowling playoffs. A trio of Stouffville ladies who have been consistently high in this event won the trebles first round. The threesome is composed of Mrs. Elgin Wagg, Mrs. Ken Laushway and Mrs. Fred Crossen. There were four entries in this event. In the first game the Stouffville ladies defeated a threesome from Whitby skipped by Mrs. Freeman, 18 to 14. In the final game Mrs. Crossen’s rink won out 23 to 8. These winners will play off against the winners of the northern half of the District at Newmarket on Monday afternoon, June 21st.

In the doubles Mrs. Storey and Mrs. Wallace of Stouffville were defeated in a close game against Mrs. Beare and Mrs. Hammond of Claremont. After being tied 9 to 9 going into the 15th end, they were defeated by one shot. CARDS WHIP MARHAM 7-2; 3-HITTER FOR BARBER
Righthander Harry Barber was in fine form on Friday night. Twirling a sparkling 3- hitter, the Gormley mound ace held Markham off the score sheet until the final inning to post a 72 victory. The Stouffville win gives Murray Stewart’s squad a one game edge on the season’s play. The Cards have beaten Markham three times and have dropped a pair. Markham’s batsmen just could not cope with Barbers “stuff” in Friday’s fixture. They were held hitless in the second and third innings. The southern rivals bunched together a pair of walks and a double in their final turn at bat to push two runners across. The Cards jumped on hurler Dave Webb for 4 runs in the first inning. The Markham moundsman received rather weak support in the field as his mates committed errors on the first three men at the plate. Stouffville added one in the 3rd and two in the 4th. Long-ball slugger, Gord Eckardt unleashed some of his power again on Friday but each time he was left stranded on base. In the third inning he whacked out a double and in the fourth he followed through with a single. Ted Suzuki and Harry Barber each poked out a pair of single-base blows. Bob Stover, batting in the number four cleanup spot, belted a double. Ross Madill and Don Haynes each collected one safety. “Nebbie” Gayman and John Ross slammed doubles for Markham’s best plate performance. Mike Pettit connected for a single. They stranded six men on base. Stouffville marooned a like number. MIDGETS BLANK MARKHAM FOR FIRST WIN

MARKHAM BEATS CARDS 4-2 Umpire Quits, Returns
The tables were turned on the Cardinals Thursday night. Facing their arch rivals the Markham Red Sox, Stouffville’s fielding prowess suddenly fell apart and the visitors racked up a 4-2 victory. Seven Errors It was the Cards weakest fielding display of the season. They committed a total of seven errors, three of these miscues came in the sixth and final inning. Each of Markham’s four tallies was unearned. Don Haynes, a winner in his initial performance on the mound two weeks previously, suffered the loss in Thursday’s tilt. Although he fired a masterful four-hitter, he alone committed three of the teams seven bobbles. He dropped one pop fly and threw two balls wild to first and second base. Three-Hitter Southpaw Dave Webb delivered a stingy three-hitter. It was his best pitching performance against the Cards here this season. On previous occasions Stouffville batsmen have had little trouble with his offerings. Webb had his “stuff” on Thursday. He retired the opposition order in the first, fourth and fifth innings. Only in the second and sixth could Stouffville get kind of a threatening rally going. In the second, cleanup Bob Stover, received a base on balls. He romped home when Don Haynes clubbed a double into centrefield and moved to third on an error. In the sixth,Ted Suzuki singled and scored on two infield errors. One Big Chance The Cards had one big opportunity to pull the game out of the fire. In their final turn at the plate, the tying runners were perched on second and third but failed to advance. Two successive errors by Markham’s third baseman “Nebbie” Gayman put Bob Stover and Don Haynes on base. With two out long-ball slugger Gord Eckardt whiffed at three strikes to retire the side and end the game. Although hurler Webb showed real signs of tiring the Markham manger left him in and he came through with an all-important strikeout. One Double Markham, like Stouffville, were held to only one extra-base blow “Nebbie” Gayman rapped a double into the outfield. Single safeties were poked out by Dave Webb, Bob Atkinson and Mike Pettit Umpire Quits, Returns Umpire Len Buckland, Stouffville’s ever-faithful plate official, walked off the diamond in the fourth inning when questioned on a park ground rule. He returned, however, and the contest was completed. He informed the management following game that they would have obtain another official for future contests.

Take Early Lead A walk, a double and three errors allowed Oshawa to jump into a 2-0 lead in the first inning. The Cards rallied with one run in the top half of the second and the score was unchanged until the eighth when Stouffville moved out front 3-2. This lead was short-lived however, as the visitors salted the game away in their final trip to the plate. Errors Count As in Thursday nights game with Markham, errors made the difference. Thee Cards made a total of 5 miscues while Oshawa had only one. Every Stouffville infielder with the exception of second baseman Lynn Taylor made one bobble. Ross Madill, Eric Barber, Gord Eckardt and Murray Holden each racked up a point on the black list. Centre-fielder Ted Suzuki also had one miscue. Oshawa’s only bobble came in the second inning when first-sacker Ted Bathe dropped a routine throw from the pitcher to give Eric Barber a life. Harry Barber romped home on the play. Shaky Start In giving up a pair of walks and a double Stouffville hurler, Harry Barber appeared a trifle shaky in the opening inning. Both he and his mates leveled out as the contest progressed and turned the match into a nip and tuck battle. Barber was clipped for 7 hits. He walked six and struck out five. Stouffville batsmen whacked out 7 hits off three Oshawa pitchers. Thrilling Finish When all appeared lost and a number of spectators had left the park, the Cardinals erupted for two runs in the eighth to grab a one run advantage. Right fielder Bob Stover was clipped on the hand by a wild pitch and trotted down to first base. Clean-up slugger Don Haynes smashed a tremendous three base hit into centrefield to score Stover. Harry Barber bounced out second to first, but Ross Madill laid down a perfect sacrifice bunt to score Haynes from third. Murray Holden grounded out pitcher to first to end the rally.

She flied deep to left field in the third. A recent arrival to the Stouffville roster, she has quickly regained her batting form and is currently one of the club’s most prolific hitters.

Again in the eighth she singled and later raced across the plate. Oshawa weren’t quite so fortunate in this department. Bev McCable attempted to steal home in the sixth inning but was caught cold at the plate. Catcher Doreen Jarvis relayed the ball off the backstop to pitcher Joan Raymer who picked the runner off.

They appeared a trifle shaky in the early innings. Two errors in the first and four bobbles in the third allowed five unearned runs to score. They made another miscue in the fifth. For the remaining four innings, Stouffville played errorless ball. Chippawa made five errors. The homesters couldn’t cash in on their fumbles and scored only once.

ONE HUNDRED DOLLAR DOLL
A doll is an unusual plaything for a boy, but when it’s covered with one hundred, $! bills, then it’s a much different story. Four year old Blair Clarkson of Stouffville was the winner of the prize doll at the Lion’s Club Carnival held at the Arena on Wednesday night of last week. “I guess I’m about the richest boy ever,” was the young lad’s only comment. The money has been placed in the bank for lBait’s future use. The doll has been given to a sister. http://news.ourontario.ca/whitchurchstouffville/100103/page/1
SPORTS SHORTS by Jim Thomas AN AMAZING ATHLETE “He certainly is an amazing little fellow.” That was a comment I overheard from a partisan Pickering spectator in attendance at the playoff contest in Markham on Tuesday night. The fan was, of course, talking about pint-sized “Peg” O’Neill, Markham’s softball control artist. It was this same little guy that chalked up a win in the first game of the series and then returned to oust the opposition in the rubber tilt. What keeps him going? Where does he get his pitching power? I don’t believe his equal has ever been known in local softball circles. After one season out of competitive Intermediate ranks, I never personally believed he would make a come-back. With Markham presently in the thick of Provincial playoff competition, O’Neill finds himself once again carrying the bulk of the teams mound load. Truly the name of “Peg” O’Neill will join the group of local sports immortals if and when he decides to hang up his spikes and glove for good. His absence would leave a vacuum in Markham’s softball ranks that could never be filled. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… GIRLS TRIM DIXIE 17-9 IN ‘C‘ PLAYOFF
Stouffville girls clubbed out a 17-9 victory over Dixie under the lights here on Monday night in the first game of the Provincial ‘C’ playoffs. The return tilt was scheduled for Dixie on Wednesday. After absorbing a double defeat at the hands of Newmarket in ‘B’ class, “Peg” O’Neill’s squad have dropped back into a lower category. They believe they have a good chance of winning the Ontario championship this season. Joan Raymer went the distance on the mound for the homesters. She held the visitors to eight hits. She enjoyed good control and issued only three walks. Only in the second inning did Dixie threaten when they connected for three hits. One runner was safe on an error and another received a base on balls to score four runs. Their remaining tallies were confined to single runs. Jean-Ann McCallum handled the hurling chores for Dixie.

She completed the circuit four times. Mavis Trunk whacked out a triple. Betty Brooks and Doreen Jarvis each clouted doubles. Joyce Roberts bagged a pair of singles. Donna Seebeck had one hit. Elsie Tremills was Dixie’s best with a home run, a double and a single. Pat Irvine poled a double and a single. Dixie committed four errors. Stouffville had three bobbles.

The Stouffville Cardinals dropped the first game of O.B.A. Junior ‘C’ playoffs to Durham Huskies 7-4 in Durham on Monday afternoon. The return contest is scheduled for Stouffville’s Memorial Park on Saturday afternoon at 3:30 Big Chance The entire story of the game could have been told in the first -inning. Both clubs had excellent opportunities to score a volley of runs when they loaded up the sacks. Durham pushed four men across the plate. Stouffville chalked up only one tally. That was the ball game. Although the Cards threatened in the second inning, they never pulled back on even terms. Each team notched three runs in the remaining innings. Four Hits Stouffville batsmen whacked out a total of four hits in the first stanza. Ted Suzuki teed off on the first pitch of the game and rapped a single into right field. Lynn Taylor pushed Suzuki down to second with a sacrifice bunt. Successive singles from the bats of Harry Barber and Bob Stover loaded up the bases.

Wipe Out Lead It took Durham only 2 walks, a single and a wild pitch to wipe out the Cards one run lead. Another runner was cut off at the plate, when third baseman Eric Barber fired to catcher Ross Madill for a force-out at home. A walk and a single-base blow added two more Durham tallies. The next two batters were retired in order. Still in Game Stouffville remained very much in the ball game as they staged a two-run rally in the top half of the second. Eric Barber and John Little were strike-out victims, but Ted Suzuki worked a walk. The third baseman bobbled Lynn Taylor’s ground ball and threw wild to first. Suzuki romped around to third. Harry Barber dropped a Texas League single into the shallow outfield and Bob Stover received a base on balls to put two more men on base. Gord Eckardt went down on strikes. Big Lefthander Durham used a big lefthander, Brad McTavish for the all important opener. After a rather shaky start, he settled down to twirl tine ball. He was clipped for 4 hits in the first inning. He fired a stingy two-hitter for remainder of the contest. Shaky Start Stouffville’s ace righthander, Harry Barber appeared a trifle shaky in the opening innings. Like Durham’s McTavish, he settled down in the latter stages of the game and held the opposition to three hits and one run in the final the innings. Barber was clipped for 3 safeties. He issued 4 walks and registered 8 strike outs. McTavish allowed 6 hits. He walked five and whiffed 10 Stouffville batters. All Singles The fourteen hits banged out by both clubs were all single-base blows. Stouffville’s Harry Barber topped the locals hit parade with three safeties. Gore Eckardt, Bob Stover and Ted Suzuki each had one hit. Brad McTavish, Cam Ritchie and Bob Stock each belted a pair of singles for the winners. Al Boyd and Larry Reay tapped out one hit apiece.

September 11 1958 (con’t) CARDS EDGE DURHAM 2-1 IN EXTRA INNING THRILLER
Stouffville cardinals squeezed out a thrilling 2-1 victory over Durham Huskies on Saturday afternoon to deadlock their Junior ‘C’ Ontario playoff semi-finals at one game apiece. The rubber contest is scheduled for Stouffville’s Memorial Park on Saturday afternoon at 3:30. Thrilling Finish The air was almost electric with excitement as Stouffville came to bat in the bottom of the tenth inning with the score tied 1-1. John little was a strike out victim but Harry Barber lashed a double into deep right field. Bob Stover, one of the club’s most potent batsmen, rifled a grass-cutting ground ball at Durham third-sacker Les McGirr. The drive slipped past the infielder’s glove and rolled out into shallow left field. Barber galloped home with the game-winning tally. He was mobbed by his mates for a sparkling mound and plate performance. Barber in Charge Stouffville righthander, Harry Barber was the Cards mound master. He held the opposition to five hits. He registered 12 strike outs. The Victoria Square ace enjoyed excellent control and issued only one base on balls. He fired everything in the baseball book including an occasional knuckler when necessary. He retired his rivals in order in five of the ten innings. The one Durham run that did cross the plate was unearned. A lone double in the ninth was the only extra-base blow collected off the Stouffville curveballer. Take Lead Like Durham’s first tally, Stouffville counted an unearned run in the seventh. Ross Madill was safe on an infield fumble. Don Haynes and Eric Barber were retired in order but Ted Suzuki belted a long double into centre field to score Madill. John Little flied out to left field to end the rally. More Plate Power Although Durham’s southpaw hurler dished out another stingy five-hitter, Stouffville’s batsmen displayed more long power than was evident in the opener. On a number of occasions Durham’s outfielders were pushed back to the fence in order to pull down well-hit balls. Stouffville fielders on the other hand had to nab only two long-distance clouts, one in first and one in the tenth. The Cards whacked eight long balls. Three of Stouffville’s hits were extra-base blows. They connected for three doubles and a pair of singles. Madill Good A switch in position for Ross Madill paid off for the Cards. Don Haynes returned to his regular place behind the plate and Madill took his familiar stand on the third base hot spot. He turned in a superb defensive performance and was one of the main cogs in the Stouffville infield machine. He completed six putouts. In addition, he started a fast double play that wiped out a threatened Durham rally in the fourth inning. Although he had little luck at the plate, he poled one drive into the left field elms that was foul by a few feet. Ninth Inning Lapse The Cards suffered a near-disastrous ninth inning lapse that could have cost them the ball game and the series. With one out, Durham’s Bob Stock belted a double into left field. Hohn little attempted to out-throw the runner at second and fired wild. He advanced to third. Barber forced John Schaefer to pop out to second-sacker Lynn Taylor to ease the pressure. With two out, Coach Stewart worked some strategy and walked clean-up slugger Brad McTavish intentionally. Durham’s Bill Sullivan rapped a ground ball to first baseman Gord Eckardt. In his haste to beat the runner he bobbled the ball. The front runner scored and all was evened up. In an effort to keep their rally rolling, McTavish streaked for third but was nipped off on a perfect throw to Ross Madill. Taylor Connects Lynn Taylor, long known for his steady defensive ability, was one of the key men in Stouffville’s offensive attack on Saturday. In four turns at the bat, he dropped down a perfect sacrifice bunt and beat it out. He rapped a double into the out field and gained a base on balls. In his first appearance at bat, the he drove the ball into deep left field for a long out. Ted Suzuki and Harry Barber bagged doubles. Bob Stover hit a Texas League single in the second inning.

Miscues accounted for all three runs that crossed the plate. Each team had four bobbles. A fine play by first baseman Gord Eckardt in the sixth inning turned a would-be error into a routine put-out. Ross Madill snagged a ground ball but fired into the dirt in front of Eckardt. The big first-sacker dug his trapper into the turf and held the throw while partisan fans held their breath.

CARDS OUST DURHAM ON 6TH INNING SQUEEZE PLAY
A “squeeze play”, one of the few ever successfully executed here was pulled off by the Stouffville Junior Cardinals on Saturday afternoon. The split-second maneuver counted the game-winning tally as the homesters ousted Durham from the Ontario semi-finals. The Cards added the insurance run in the eighth to chalk up a thrilling 5-3 victory, They now advance into the provincial finals. They will challenge Wheatley for the junior title. Fast Action Stouffville coach, Murray Stewart master-minded the run-scoring “squeeze play”. Fans stood motionless in open-mouthed amazement. The Durham infield was caught completely flat-footed. iI was the key play of the game and the series. Teams Tied Coach Stewart’s scheme was put into motion in the bottom half of the sixth inning. Successive singles by Bob Stover and Gord Eckardt evened the score at 3-3. With one out and Eckhardt parked on third base, the stage was set for the “squeeze”. On a 2-1 pitch to Ross Madill at the plate, Eckardt took off home. As the big Stouffville first-sacker pounded toward plate, Madill tapped a slow roller to the mound. Durham pitcher Brad McTavish had no alternative but to make a play to first to nab Madill. Eckardt scored easily. It proved to be winner. Not Easy Win Saturday’s victory trail was transformed into a rocky road in the filth inning for Stouffville’s curveball ace, Harry Barber. The rival Durham batsmen teed off and collected runs off five hits, to take a brief 3-2 edge. With the exception of this one-inning lapse, the Victoria Square right-hander was in control. He retired the side in order in the third, seventh and eighth innings. He issued one walk, struck out seven. Bunch Hits Stouffville batters were able to bunch their hits into two run-producing innings. Although Durham southpaw Brad McTavish dished up a stingy six-hitter, five of these were clubbed out in the fifth and sixth. It was enough for Stouffville to win. The big lefthander was working on a no-hither until the fatal fifth. Stouffville’s plate offensive was carried over into the sixth and Durham’s title hopes came to a disappointing conclusion. After taking the series opener by a 7-4 count, the visitors seemed to lack the cocky confidence they displayed in the first game. Slump Ends The “rubber game” featured some solid hitting from the big bat of Stouffville’s Don Haynes. Labouring during the past series with an injured leg, his plate efforts have been noticeably affected. This was not the case on Saturday. The hard-throwing Card catcher made the opposition swallow their criticism with his team’s best performance. He started Stouffville’s fifth inning rally rolling with a ringing double into deep centrefield and followed through with a single in the sixth. He was later trapped and tagged out when he attempted to stretch his hit into extra bases. He played superb ball in a defensive role also. He halted a Durham rally in the sixth, when he picked off the Huskies’ Allan Boyd at third base. In addition, he nipped Durham’s Jack Lawrence at second base on an attempted steal in the first inning. Other Hits Don Haynes was the only Stouffville player to connect for more than one hit. Other single safeties came from the bats of Harry Barber, Bob Stover, Gord Eckardt and John Little. Allan Boyd and Larry Reay each touched Barber for a pair of hits. Bob Stocks conked a triple. John Schaefer, Brad McTavish and Bill Sullivan poked out singles. Well Handled Plate umpire Loring Doolittle and base official Bill Lennox handled a good game. There was little argument on infield calls in spite of a number of close decisions. The always- colourful Doolittle kept both clubs hustling and the entire nine inning contest was completed in two hours. A large crowd attended the afternoon tilt. Rivals Unknown Wheatley, a town near Leamington, on the shore of Lake Erie have been long known for their baseball organization. Although, to our knowledge, they have never played against a Stouffville club in previous years, competition in the Provincial finals is nothing new for this team. The first game of the series has been set for Saturday afternoon in Stouffville’s Memorial Park at 3.30 p.m. HORSESHOE CLUB PLAYOFFS START FRI.

The stouffville girls came to the end of the softball road on Monday night when they bowed to Norwich 13-4 in the Int. ‘C’ Provincial semi-finals. The locals took the series opener 16-13 but dropped the next two contests here in stouffville by identical scores. Norwich now advances into the Ontario finals. They will meet either Bright or Electric. In the early stages of the game, Stouffville appeared to be the likely winners as they held a 2-0 lead at the end of the second inning. Joyce Roberts and Doreen Jarvis completed the circuit to score the runs. Norwich turned their heavy bats on Stouffville pitcher Natalie Belch in the fourth inning and belted out four hits, including a home run, a triple and two singles. From that point, the visitors could not be stopped. They continued their assault in the fifth and sewed up the contest with four hits and four runs in their final trip to the plate in the eighth. With the Norwich hits came Stouffville errors. Single-base blows were stretched for extra bases as the ball was repeatedly bobbled. The wet outfield grass added insult to injury. Stouffville committed a total of nine errors. Norwich made five miscues. Alice Noack twirled a sparkling five-hitter for the winners. She appeared to weaken slightly in the eighth when stouffville batters connected for two successive safeties. She made a quick recovery however and permitted only one run to score. Stouffville’s Natalie Belch was clipped for 13 hits. Joyce Roberts turned in a fine performance for the local squad, both at the plate and in left field. She bagged three of the homesters five hits. Marion Gayman clubbed a triple and Mavis Trunk tapped out a single. Denise Barrett was a tower of strength for Norwich. The blonde centrefielder clouted three singles and a triple. Marion Ward tagged a triple and a single. Joyce Kennedy slammed a home run. The Norwich club appeared to gain considerable confidence as they built up a comfortable lead. The fired the ball around the infield with manlike agility and Stouffville runners had little opportunity to steal. Mavis Trunk, Stouffville’s second sacker was picked off first base when she ventured too far from the bag. The local girls have enjoyed one of their best seasons in many years under the leader ship of “Peg” O’Neill. They plan to return to the softball wars next summer and will reenter the Ontario playoffs in search of the coveted title.

The prize will be offered weekly to the end of the spring playoffs. The initial winner of the award is laurie bUckland, agile goaltender on the Black Hawk team. The four coaches and Mr. Turner unanimously agreed that the stouthearted puckstopper was the top competitor in Monday evenings double-header. Although his team suffered a 2-1 defeat Laurie’s efforts were mainly responsible for the close contest. The winner may pick up his prize from Hendricks hardware store at his convenience.
ENTHUSIASTIC LEADER On a recent afternoon visited the Stouffville High School for a pre-game report on the local junior rugby roster. As i waited at the entrance, broad-shouldered athletes pounded past me enroute to the field for a warmup workout. As I stole a quick glimpse of each boy in an effort to recognize a face under a Buck Rogers’ type helmet, a total stranger romped toward me garbed in gear that resembled a passenger on a U.S. moon rocket, he stopped to say hello. Under neath the armour-plate-like paraphernalia was Mr. Jim Re-hill, school P.T. instructor. “One of the boys injured his leg today so I’m taking his place,” he explained. Mr. Rehill planned to join in the scrimmage to round out a full two-team squad. This good-natured P.T. trainer has done much for sports in Stouffville’s High School. Enthusiasm among local competitors was never at a higher level. He does not lend his services only to the male members of the student body. If a girls basketball team or other groups needs athletic instruction, then he’ll gladly give of his time and talent to help them along. Mr. Rehlll’s love of inter-school and inter-class sport has had a contagious effect on his young proteges. They have taken up the challenge and are making their mark on the inter-college sports front. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. JR. RUGBY TEAM BLANKS WOODBRIDGE 14-0
“He was sensational.” said Coach Jim Rehill, following Stouffville’s thrilling 14-0 shut out over Woodbridge on Thursday afternoon of last week. Coach Rehill was describing the play of local halfback Ron Wideman, the hard-running Junior star turned in a fine performance in the important opening rugby contest played at Thornhill. The return tilt is scheduled for Stouffville’s field on Thursday afternoon. The home town college crew are favoured to sweep the series and advance into further district playoff competition. Backed by a huge turnout of pro-Woodbridge supporters, the opposition had Stouffville on the defensive in the early stages of the game. The rivals did manage to score but the goal was called back on a penalty. Midway through the first quarter, Stouffville stormed to the attack. Quarterback John Roxborough fired a pitchout to Don Eddington who relayed the ball to Roger Stover. The charging fullback romped 20 yards for a touchdown. Ross Pattenden completed the convert to give Stouffville a 7-0 lead. In the third quarter, Ron Wideman took charge. He scooped up a Woodbridge fumble and raced 40 yards to score. As in the previous T.D., Ross Pattenden booted the ball between the posts for the convert. Stouffville held a 14-0 advantage. One of the most thrilling plays of the contest came with only five minutes left in the game. With Woodbridge pressing, Ron Wideman pulled down a kick behind the Stouffville goal line. Unwilling to yield a single point, he galloped into the midst of an onrushing Woodbridge squad. Gaining momentum, he rolled up to the 15 yard line before he was finally felled. The sensational runback eased the pressure on the Stouffville team and allowed them to hold Woodbridge off the score sheet. With less than two minutes to play, Roger Stover scored but the goal was called back on a penalty. Don Eddington also had an excellent opportunity to extend the local’s lead but this play was also called back. Aside from Ron Wideman’s star-studded performance, other players who played well were Don Eddington, Roger Stover, Bill Sanders, Roger Todd and Joe Herold. With the exception of a bad crosswind, the weatherman co-operated well and both clubs played under near-excellent conditions. In spite of the lopsided win, Stouffville plans to go all-out on Thursday to assure themselves of further district competition. A win for Woodbridge would likely force a third game oh a foreign field. TOWN TO PRESENT WRIST WATCHES TO BASEBALL CHAMPS

Stouffville’s Junior rugby team advanced into the Georgian Bay district finals last week when they blanked Woodbridge 7-0. on a rain-soaked field. The local High School squad took the two-game opener 14-0. The series sweep brings the district honors to Stouffville and permits the homesters to move on into further league competition. Stouffville grabbed a 6-0 lead in the first quarter. Roger Stover, an offensive powerhouse for the locals, took a hand-off from quarterback John Roxborough and barged across the goal line for the only touchdown of the game. The “trap play” perfected by the Stouffville team caught the Woodbridge squad completely by surprise. Both Roger Stover and Don Eddington had made big gains up the field before Stover finally romped across for the T.D. Ross Pattenden’s convert was missed. Stouffville counted an additional point in the first half to complete the scoring. Ross Pattenden’s punt was pulled down behind the Woodbridge goal line. The player was tackled for a point. Five Woodbridge passes were intercepted, three by Don Eddington and one each by Roger Stover and Ron Wideman. Eddington, Stover and Roxborough were Stouffville’s offensive stars. Bill Sanders, Bill Ratcliff and Roger Todd held the fort on defence. As we go to press, no word is yet available on Stouffville s next opposition. GAYMAN SPARKS CLIPPER TO 8-3 WIN OVER MILTON
If Lawrence “Debbie” Gayman is a sample of the hockey players that can be produced by Unionville, then the management of the Clippers should keep a keen eye on the Jets over-age juniors at the conclusion of each season. The agile puck-juggler was the games number one star on Tuesday night as Stouffville racked up an 8-3 victory over Milton. The Intermediate schedule officially opens on Nov. 1st. The Clipper’s home opener is on Nov 4th. Never Stopped From the opening whistle Gayman never sped skating. He dodged and shifted from one end of the arena to the other. Although he suffered a nasty crack on the head in the dying minutes of the contest, he was back in his regular position at the final bell. In addition to firing a three goal hat-trick, he picked up a pair of assists. Receives Applause Gayman’s third goal was a picture effort. He charged across the blueline and attempted to split the Milton defence. His shot was stopped but the puck was not cleared out of the Merchant’s zone. Winger Don Cosburn grabbed the loose disk and planted it on Gayman’s stick. Not to be denied in his return rush, he flipped the puck into the top corner of the cage as goalie Lever sprawled across the crease. His performance was loudly applauded by 138 partisan Stouffville fans. Kid Line Stouffville has a real hockey “kid line” in the making. Gayman at centre, flanked by ex-Jet, Stan Thornington and Don Cosburn formed a fast-stepping trio. Geo. Carey spelled off both Cosburn and Thornington on various occasions. The foursome accounted for five of Stouffville’s eight goal production. Weak Defence The Clippers appeared woefully weak on defence. Archie Forfar was pressed into service and played exceptionally well. Aside from breaking up numerous Milton offensive attacks, he potted one goal. Neither Ron Guy nor George Stark were present to bolster the rearguard. Russ Forfar working in the coach’s box in the absence of Jack Watson used both netminders, Joe Carpenter and George Wilkins. Both played in the well. Wilkins continues to boast the best record. He didn’t yield a single goal and blocked a number of close-in Milton scoring drives. Carpenter had little chance to stop Milton’s opening period tallies. Art Melanson intercepted a Stouffville pass-out and whipped it into the twine. Six minutes later, Jim Hoffert broke into the clear and scored to give the visitors a 2-0 edge. Twenty-One Penalties The officials handed out a total of 21 penalties, twelve to the Clippers and nine to Milton. The majority of the exchanges were for minor infractions. vanderpol of Stouffville and Brush of milton squared off in a fistic feud late in the contest but they pated without damage being done. Dance, of Milton, was banished to the dressing room with a game misconduct when he questioned the official’s ruling on the penalty. Lack Scoring Touch Stouffville’s Ted Vanderpol and Phil Nicholas must be wondering if an invisible guard shrouds the opposition’s net in the local arena. A lack of goals that plagued both players in the Intermediate finals last Spring, still seems to haunt them. Although they had a number of fine chances on Tuesday night, they couldn’t hit the target. Vanderpol bounced the puck off the goal post on two occasions. He notched three goals at Milton last week.

Clipper netminder Joe Carpenter was admitted to the Brierbush Hospital with a possible fractured pelvis on Tuesday night. He suffered the injury midway through the third period and had to be carried off the ice. Dr. D. Brodie of Stouffville conducted x-rays immediately following the accident. The player was removed by ambulance to his home at Sutton. It was expected that he would be admitted to the York County Hospital, Newmarket on Wednesday morning. Freak Accident. No players were actually involved in the mishap. Carpenter dropped to the ice to block a low shot. Bradford’s Don Gibson picked up the rebound and lifted it into the twine. The Stouffville netminder, suffering noticeable pain, could not arise after the play was completed. He was carried bodily from the ice by his team mates. Placed on a stretcher in the dressing room, he was transported to hospital. George Wilkins took over in the Clipper cage and finished the game. Three Hour Game It took slightly more than three hours to complete the three-period game. The contest was started at 8:50 and completed at 11:55. A rash of penalties in the second period delayed the game for some time, while the timekeeper and officials unravelled a maze of names and figures. At one point the penalty box was jam-packed with players from both clubs. The greater portion of the second period was run off with either one team or the other playing at a manpower disadvantage. See-Saw Contest Bradford were the ultimate winners of a see-saw game. At the final whistle, they held an 8-7 goal edge. The visitors were worthy victors with the exception of the first period and the final stages of the last frame, Bradford showed more drive than the homesters. They took more advantage of the breaks and were quick to clear the puck out of their own zone when hard pressed. Goal-Scorers Phil Nicholas and Stan Thornington each potted a pair of goals for the Clippers. Harold Hodgson, Grant Edwards and Gus Almstead fired singles. Paton notched a pair for the for the winners. Winters, Booth, Vasey, Gibson and Dowdell blinked the light for the other Bradford tallies. Over-Hand Right About the most sensational Stouffville individual effort was turned in by Bud Lehman. Although his action could hardly be classed as hockey, it did provide a little colour and excitement to an otherwise drab contest. The skirmish occurred in the second period. Just when it appeared certain that the officials had the combatants separated, Lehman took exception to further threats by his adversary. With one motion he lashed out an overhand right that caught his rival square on the forehead. Although the blow dazed the Bradford player, he failed to go down for the count. The referee, on the other hand counted out a four minute penalty for Lehman. He added an extra ten minutes to the double minor ,when the stouffville forward directed a few uncomplimentary remarks at the official. A total of 24 penalties were meted out during the sixty minute game. Late Game Rally Stouffville displayed their best hockey in the final minutes of the game. Fighting with their backs to the wall behind an 8-6 score, the homesters showed more offensive power than at any other point in the contest. Geo. Carey sailed in on the Bradford net but was blocked on a nice stop by Copeman. Bud Lehman bounced the disk off the goal post with two minutes remaining. The Clippers finally poked the puck into the twine. When it appeared possible that Stouffville might close the one goal gap, Russ Forfar was handed an interference penalty. Playing five men to six, Stouffville were resigned to a defensive role and failed to get the puck past centre ice. SWIMMING POOL HAD NEARLY 400 REGULARS
Stouffville Swimming Pool operated by the Stouffville Lions Club had approximately four hundred regular customer ticket holders during the season just concluded. The actual figure was 398 and this number was made up of family season tickets — 38; Adult instruction class — 5; students –229; children — 111; teen-age and adult instruction group — 398. Actually the pool was far from overcrowded at any time and Manager A.H. Williams strongly urges that steps be taken to advertise the pool more extensively in 1959. The largest number of persons using the pool on any one day was July 15th, when the attendance was 308; on July 24th it was 300, and on July 2nd, 279. With the exception of these few days, there was more than ample accommodation at all times. The cash swimmers paid a total of $l,684.65 during the season. Children’s instruction receipts amounted to $573.00 and family tickets $562.50. Largest other receipt account was children’s season tickets which amounted to $482.50. Total receipts at the pool amounted to $3,486.20 and total expenditures were $3,876.28 showing a deficit on the years operations of approximately $400. However Manager Williams has pointed out that there were capital expenditures such as painting of $353.00 which would not be necessary every year and should not normally be charged against the current years operation. tThe local pool operates with the full quota of lifeguards as recommended by the Red Cross with an expenditure of $1,312.05. Management costs were $785.00 and instruction $460.00. Miscellaneous expenditures including a local hydro account of $105.00 amounted to $756.08. The instructional classes were expertly handled which resulted in a high percentage of graduates from the various classes which was most gratifying. Mr. Williams’ recommendation of a keener advertising program to encourage outside residents to use the pool was placed before the local Lions Club. The owners and operators and it is expected that the Committee for Community Betterment will be acting on some of the suggestions in this connection. KELLY WATSON TOPS BOWLER WITH 273
Mrs. Kelly Watson vaulted to the top of the individual point-scoring race in the ladies’ bowling league with a fine 273 single last week. In addition, she rolled a high triple score of 576. A total of eight ladies broke the 200 point barrier. They ranked as follows: Marie Foote, 232; Vi Booth, 213; Ann Lehman, 212; Velma Banks 207; Eleanor Wagg, 206; Reta Laushway, 201; and Mary Miller, 200. The Dimwitts continue to set the pace atop the group with a 17 point total. The Bloopers kept pace with their front- running rivals with a four point gain for a total of 15 points. The Rockets vacated the cellar position with a three point gain. They moved up from the eighth position into a tie for the number four spot. Sputnicks are the current cellar-dwellers. The official standing is as follows: Dimwitts 17 The Bloopers 15 Hula Hoops 13 The Rockets 11 Spit-fires 11 The Pickles 10 Satellites 10 Sputnicks 9

Kelly Watson 576 RANGERS BEAT BRUINS 8-2, TODD NETS 4
Goodwood’s Teddy Todd went on a goal-scoring spree on Monday evening and fired four unassisted tallies. He paced the Rangers to a one-sided 8-2 victory over the- Bruins. Joe Forsyth and Brent Weldon each picked up one goal and one assist. Randy Mole and Donald Smith were the other Ranger marksmen. Jack Shields and Raymond Rioux notched single goals for the Bruins. The win for the Rangers moved them into a first place tie with the Red Wings. Detroit edged the Black Hawks 2-1. Wings 2, Hawks 1 Red Wing Captain, Ronnie Castle was the spark plug in Detroit’s slim one-goal win. He blinked the light for one unassisted tally and set up Bruce Mehaffey for the winner. The last goal was a picture effort. Pat Smith teamed up with Eric Hamilton to score the lone Hawk tally. The Rangers, Teddy Todd was selected as the evenings All Star player. He will receive a new hockey stick from Mr. Cec Hendricks.

STICKS FOR STARS This week, BRUCE MEHAFFEY, Ringwood’s hockey ball of fire, is the winner of the All-Star hickey stick, a donation from Mr. Cec hendricks, hardware merchant, in Stouffville. On Monday evening, Bruce scored two goals to lead his Red Wing team to a 4-2 victory. Since his start in peewee ranks, Bruce has been one of the league’s most prolific performers. He is indeed, a worthy winner.
STRICTLY DOLLARS AND CENTS The refusal by the Management of the Buffalo hockey club to permit Stouffville’s Bob Hassard to make the Russian tour with the Kelowna Packers, is simply another indication of the big business operation connected with pro and semi- pro organizations. Bob Hassard is strictly a bundle of money as far as Buffalo is concerned. Professional teams sell trade and buy their talent like an attendant at an auction sale. The party’s name, position, family, etc has no real meaning to them. A player is merely a piece of property that cost “X” dollars and cents. They will sacrifice the desires and wishes of their possession in order to obtain some financial return for their investment. Nothing else matters. I don’t believe the Bison management is vitally interested in obtaining the services of Hassard. Riding high atop the A.H.L., they lead their nearest rival by six points. It is unlikely that they would place a midseason recruit in a key position while the club is currently setting the group on fire. My bet is, that they would attempt to secure a few thousand dollars from the highest bidder. He might wind up playing with either Cleveland, Providence or Rochester. I believe Bob was wise in “sticking to his guns.” No doubt he was disappointed in missing the Russian-bound tour but on his return, what then? Apparently, he could see little future in returning to semi-pro ranks. A family home and a secure position are important factors to the individual, if not to the professional money-makers. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….Coach Jack O’Reilly of the Kelowna team expressed disappointment in Buffalos refusal to release Hassard. He admitted that his club lacked the necessary professional talent to match the skill of European players. He noted that Whitby were permitted to use Sid Smith, Jean Paul Lamlrande and Connie Brodin to strengthen their roster. The latter two returned to pro ranks after the tournament was completed. Bob Hassard would not agree to a release with “strings attached.” He had decided previously not to play in the AHL this winter. He returned this week to his position with the Thos. Burkitt Insurance Agency, Stouffville.

SCHOOL SPIRIT Saturday afternoon I witnessed one of the finest examples of school spirit and good sportsmanship that I have seen for some time. Any team that would endure the conditions that prevailed in the district football final here in order to uphold the honour of their school banner is certainly deserving of high praise. The same must be said for the Oshawa opposition. The gridiron drenched by an all-day rain was turned into a sea of mud. Minutes after the opening kick-off blackened faces and uniforms completely wiped out the identity of individual players. In spite of these conditions the local quad put up a torrid battle against a heavier rival club. Only in the fourth quarter did Oshawa break through to score their game-winning touchdown. It was a rather disappointed group of local boys that trudged wearily off the field at the final whistle. They quietly unrolled their sodden uniforms and headed for a well-earned shower. In an adjoining room the exuberant Oshawa team gave vent to their feelings and rightly so. It’s great to be a winner but the Stouffville team looked good even in defeat. Coach Jim Rehill expressed the feelings of every rain-soaked fan when he commented, “ It was a tremendous team effort.” The cheerleaders, Pat Buckland, Barb Frisby, Janette Montgomery, Mardell Willis, Jean Winterstein, Caroline Ogilvy and leader Karen Lewis, too showed amazing courage. They endured the elements throughout the entire game and not once did a single girl leave the field. Oshawa boasted no cheering section. The colourful group displayed fine sportsmanship when at one point in the contest, they sounded a cheer for their High School rivals. The Oshawa players expressed much appreciation of this sportsmanlike act. The Stouffville team were the losers, but their determination and spirit has gained them a prominent place in my books.
STICKS FOR STARS Every week Mr. Cec Hendricks, local hardware merchant, offers a new All-Star hockey stick to a selected player in the Lions Peewee league. This week the award goes to baRRv hiLtz of the Red Wings. On Monday evening, Barry scored two goals as his team chalked up a decisive 6-1 win. The front-line star may pick up his prize from mr. Hendricks at his convenience. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… H.S. JUNIOR BLANKED 6-0 BY OSHAWA IN FINAL GAME
Donevan Collegiate Institute of Oshawa captured the central Ontario Secondary School Association football championship on Saturday afternoon, blanking Stouffville District High School 6-0. The Junior “B” title match was played in Stouffville. Unfavourable weather and ground conditions hampered the efforts of both teams. An all-day rain transformed the field into a sea of mud. At half time uniforms were so badly smeared that spectators found it difficult to identify the players. Large pools of water spotted the gridiron. Some of the boys took advantage of the nature-made ponds to wash the grime from their hands. In spite of the inclement weather, a good crowd was in attendance. Due to the condition of the field neither team could display any variety of football skills. Passing was almost impossible from the opening whistle. Ball carriers found it difficult to control the pigskin even on running plays. Stouffville attempted one pass in the fourth quarter in a last-ditch attempt to even the score. Oshawa’s lone touchdown came in the fourth quarter. Full back Larry Williams, the team captain, plunged seven yards to score. The T.D. resulted from four consecutive first downs with less than eight minutes left in the game. Stouffville, although outweighed, turned in a valiant effort against the Motor City squad. Roger Stover, Don Eddington, Rick Wedseltoft, John Roxborough and John Corner were five of the local’s best performers. The visitors were aided by much stronger bench strength. They dressed 30 players while Stouffville could field only eighteen. Donevan Collegiate was erected only recently. It is their first entry into COSSA playdowns. It marked Stouffville’s initial competition in the district finals. Due to an expected enrollment increase, Donevan will be forced to compete in ‘A’ class next year. The majority of Stouffville’s players will still be eligible for Junior ‘B’..
clippers stage 5 goal rally, but lose 10-7
Displaying a wide-open brand of hockey a total of 17 pucks were dumped into the Stouffville and Bradford nets on Tuesday night. The Marshmen staved off a five goal rally to come out on the top end of a 10-7 victory. The Clippers deserved a better fate. As a team they skated hard from the opening whistle and in less than one minute they held a 1-0 lead. The roof fell in, however, as Bradford rallied for five straight goals. They held a 7-2 advantage going into the second period. Bradford triggered home 3 tallies in the middle frame before Stouffville started their up- hill rally. The Clippers countered with five unanswered markers, two in the late stages of the second period and three more in the third. It wasn’t enough, however, to pull a much-needed victory out of the fire. Geo. Wilkins in the Clipper had a bad night. He looked weak in the first period when Bradford rifled five past him in eight minutes. On a number of occasions the defence allowed Bradford to walk in unmolested. Wilkins had little opportunity to hold the fort. In other instances, however, he fanned clean-cut shots. Don Gibson and Jim Patton potted a three goal hat for the winners. Fraser Dunn netted a pair. Ortie Thoms and Dave Harvey fired singles. Stouffville’s seven tallies were split among seven players. Harold Hodgson, Ronnie Guy, Bud Lehman, John Ross, Grant Edwards, Lawrence Gayman and Kevin O’Connor were the Clipper marksmen. John Ross was Stouffville’s best. Bud Lehman looked much improved over previous home efforts. Mark Mills has been added to the local’s rearguard and played well. On Saturday night the Clippers journey to Collingwood and the following Tuesday Georgetown will be the visitors here.
wings win on mehaffey’s hat trick
The Red Wing’s Bruce Mehaffey went on another goal-scoring rampage on Monday evening and pumped three goals into the Boston net. Detroit’s 6-1 win over the Bruins kept them in the first place position, two points ahead of the Hawks. Chicago blanked the Rangers 2-0 in the other Peewee contest. Paul Lintner picked up assists on Mehaffey’s three tallies. John Heaton combined with Lintner and Mehaffey on the Wing’s fifth goal. Barry Hiltz with a pair and Bill Lehman were the other Detroit marksmen. Ronnie Castle picked up one assist. John Willis scored the lone Boston tally. In the Hawk-Ranger game, Wayne Crowder and David Whittlngton fired single goals to give the Chicago team a two-point victory. FORSYTH FIRES HAT TRICK FOR HORNETS
Roger Forsyth regained his goal scoring eye on Thursday night and fired three tallies into the Buffalo cage. Forsyth’s hat trick performance paced Pittsburg to a win over their rivals. In addition he picked up an assist on another goal. Francis Haylow was the marksman. Eric Neilson picked up an assist on one of Forsyth’s three markers. Ted Redshaw combined with Billy Payne to net the first Buffalo tally. Garry Gall completed the team’s scoring. Leafs 3, Canadiens 2 Ross Brown was the big gun for the Leafs as they squeezed out a tight 3-2 victory over the Canadiens. The agile forward potted a pair of goals and assisted on a third. Barry McLean blinked the light on the other tally. Bill Corner notched one for the Canadiens and Frank Taylor fired the other. Keith Foreman assisted on Taylor’s tally. SPORTS BITS

The Stouffville Lions Midget team suffered a 4-2 setback at the hands of Port Perry in an exhibition game Thursday evening. The homesters held a 1-0 lead going into the third period and again moved out front 2-1 at the eight minute mark of the final frame. Port Perry struck for three unanswered tallies within the space of six minutes to sew up the win. Claremont’s Stan Barclay blinked the light at 2:45 of the first period on a pass from Ken May. The second period was scoreless. At 1:15 of the final frame, Port Perry broke the ice. Frank Tobin hit the target to make it 1-1 at 8:05. Warren Hendricks put Stouffville out front again with less than 8 minutes left in the game. Port Perry pulled back on even terms. Geo. Carnochan lit the light at 12:45. Two quick Port tallies salted the game away for Port. Gary Porter and Ivan Luke were the marksmen. A trio of Bantams played well for Stouffville. Barry McLean, Jim Miller and Roger Forsyth worked on one line. Warren Hendricks was a pivot performer between winger. Brian Wilkes and Wayne Hamilton. Jim Caldwell in the Stouffville net, the visitors off the score until the fateful third. WILL DEFEND JR. TITLE IN ’59 — COACH
“We will defend our Junior baseball championship next year,” said Murray Stewart, coach of the Stouffville Cardinals. Coach Stewart spoke briefly at a club banquet and presentation held in the Masonic Hall on Thursday evening. The Cards defeated Wheatley to win the Provincial title. “We waited for 4 years to win a championship,” coach Stewart said, “they’re a great bunch of boys.” He noted that his club had both the desire and spirit, a combination that is necessary for a championship team. He agreed that his players had great baseball ability. He said he was confident that his club could compete in any Junior league in Toronto. Both he and Manager Harold Hodgson thanked their supporters for their assistance throughout the summer. eDp. Reeve Gar. Lehman and councillor Ken Wagg presented the players with gold engraved wrist watches, a gift from the town. Reeve Elmer Daniels was also present.

SPORTS SHORTS by Jim Thomas STICKS FOR STARS This week our All Star Award goes to Ronnie castle, speedy forward and captain of the Red Wings in the Lions Peewee League. On Monday evening, Ronnie caught fire and scored four goals to lead his team to a 7-1 victory. A tireless skater, Ronnie is one of the most enthusiastic performers in the four team group. He may select his All Star hockey stick from Hendricks’ Hardware Store, Main Street, Stouffville. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………. CORNER PACES CANADIENS WIN WITH 4 GOALS
Bill Corner was the spark plug behind the Canadiens attack on Thursday as they romped to a 6-3 win over the Hornets. The hard-skating forward collected four goals and picked up one assist. Jim Harper and Frank Taylor each netted singles. Roger Forsyth with a pair and Francis Hay ow were the marksmen for the Hornets. There were two penalties in the contest, one to Bruce Browning for high sticking and one to Francis Haylow for charging. Buffalo 4, Leafs 3 Buffalo’s four tallies were evenly divided among four players. The Leafs bowed to Buffalo 4-3. Garry Gall, Brian aMdlll, Bill Payne and Tom Benson blinked the light for the winners. Barry McLean, Ross Brown and Larry Taylor were the goal-scorers for the Leafs. Bill Brown received a two-minute tripping penalty. David James was penalized for holding the puck. CLIPPERS LOSE TO GEORGETOWN 4-2; RHODES BLOCKS 51
An ex-Stouffville netminder, Jack ‘Dusty” Rhodes came back to haunt his mates in a Georgetown uniform on Tuesday night as the Raiders chalked up a 4-2 victory. The agile puckstopper blocked 51 shots from the sticks of Clipper forwards. At the other end of the ice Stouffville’s George Wilkins turned aside 41 drives. Both Rhodes and Wilkins play ed well between the pipes. It was a sharp reversal of form for Wilkins who looked rather weak in a previous home encounter against Bradford. Although Rhodes was peppered with 51 pucks, at least an additional 50 shots missed the target. Many more were blocked by Georgetown defencemen. On the night’s play, Stouffville looked the better club. They outskated the visitors from the opening whistle and at worst they deserved a split in the points. Rhodes proved to be the main stumbling block in the path of their seasons initial home win. The clippers move over to Bradford on Friday night and entertain Collingwood here on Dec. 2nd. It took Georgetown’s Ron Dixon only 23 seconds to put the visitors out front in the first period. Less than four minutes later Kevin O’Connor evened the count on a pass from line-mate John Ross. Bud Lehman made it 2-1 for Stouffville from Phil Nicholas. With equal rapidity in the second frame, Georgetown sifted through the Stouffville defences to pull back on even terms. Bud Varey deadlocked the score after only 17 seconds had ticked by. Goals by Bob Hall and Jerry Inglis sewed up the win for the Raiders. Harold Hodgson had two excellent opportunities to score in the final frame but on each occasion Rhodes held the fort. In the early minutes, he kicked out a blazing drive and nonchalantly scooped up the rebound with his gloved hand. Late in the game, Hodgson found himself parked near the crease but once again Rhodes turned his drive aside. Kevin O’Connor also had two good chances. One wide-open shot missed the cage and another was blocked. Stouffville’s Geo. Carey slapped a hot shot that caromed off Rhodes’ pads into the corner in the second period. Almost half of Rhodes saves were in the final frame. He blocked 22 shots. Wilkins finest stop came late in the second period when a Georgetown forward broke in to the clear at the Stouffville blueline. His corner-labelled shot was pulled out of the air by Wilkins in sensational style. It was by far the best game of the season for the local Clippers in spite of the loss. ROLLS 277 SINGLE
Mary “Pickle” Cole was in top form at the local alleys last week as she topped all rivals in the individual point-scoring totals. In addition to chalking up a 277 single, the agile athlete collected a fine 622 triple, tops in that department also. It was not an easy singles win for “Pickle.” Gaye Rennie made a good attempt to hit the highest mark and fell only 4 points short of her rival. Gaye rolled a 273. The next runner-up was Joan Cadieux with a 235. Marie Foote, Mary Miller, Ann Lehman, Helen Hassard and Ruth Lee followed in that order. Each bowler topped the 200 barrier. WINGS ROUT HAWKS 7-1; CASTLE NETS 4
Captain Ronnie Castle of the Red Wings hit his mid-season form on Monday night and rapped four pucks into the Black Hawk net. The Wings trounced the Hawks 7-1 behind Castle’s four goal spree. Barry Hiltz, a two-goal marksman last week, picked up three assists on Monday night. Larry Foote fired 2 tallies for the winners and David Oldham notched one. Billy Harper scored the lone Hawk goal. Bruins 2, Rangers 1 Paul Lintner and Bruce Mehaffey teamed up to lift the Bruins out of the cellar and into a tie with the Rangers in third place. Lintner potted two tallies. Bruce Mehaffey picked up assists on both goals. Larry Plaskett blinked the light for the lone Ranger marker. Teddy Todd was credited with an assist on Plaskett’s tally. CLIPPERS ROUNCE COLLINGWOOD 13-6
The goal-hungry Clippers stepped into the Collingwood arena on Saturday night and trounced the shipbuilders 13- 6. It was Stouffville’s initial win of the season. Phil Nicholas and Stan Thornington each fired a three goal hat trick. Lawrence Gayman potted a pair. Single tallies came from the sticks of Bud Lehman, Geo. Carey, Mark Mills, Kevin O’Connor and Pete Lacey. BANTAMS BEAT PORT 5-3 FORSYTH NETS 3
Stouffville’s bantam team, led by forward Roger Forsyth, handed Port Perry a 5-3 setback on Monday night in an exhibition game. The contest was staged in the Port Perry arena. Forsyth fired a three goal hat trick. Linemate Barry McLean potted a pair. Jim Miller, the other member on the line, picked up four assists. Coach Hal Gibson used both Bobby Wagg and Wayne Oldham in the Stouffville net. Stouffville will play host to Port Perry here on Monday. Dec. 8. MIDGETS DROP OPENER TO AURORA 5-3
Stouffville’s Midget entry in the North York League dropped their group opener in Aurora last week by a score of 5-3. Three of the winners tallies were counted while Stouffville was shorthanded. Lynn McMullen, Grant Foreman and Bob Lehman were the local marksmen. Leeming with a pair, Wall, Stone and Wright blinked the light for Aurora. The contest was highlighted by excellent officiating. The referee kept the rough play to a minimum and handed out penalties for every offence.

SPORTS SHORTS by Jim Thomas STICKS FOR STARS There are a number of players in the Lions Peewee League who will never score a three goal hat trick or stick-handle through the entire opposition to put the puck in the net. The razzle-dazzle stars have their place but the majority of coaches like the hardworking, dependable boy who will give his best every time on the ice. In every game blaiR wagg of the Red Wings is this type of player. In addition to being a steady hockey player, Blair is a real gentleman in and out of the arena. A defenceman in the majority of games, Blair hasn’t the same opportunity to score as his forward line team mates. On monday night he notched one unassisted tally as his club edged the rangers 3-2. For this feat, plus all-round ability, Blair Wagg is this weeks selection for the all-star player award. He is the recipient of an All-Star hockey stick from Hendricks’ Hardware, Main Street, Stouffville.
TURN BACK THE CLOCK Stouffville can justly boast of a number of above-average Intermediate hockey players in Harold Hodgson, Lawrence Cayman, John Ross, to mention only a few. If one could turn back the hands of time forty-eight years to 1910, other well-known residents were currently holding the sports spot light. This week Mr. Howard Malloy presented your writer with a well-preserved photo of the 1910 edition of the Stouffville hockey club. The following players comprised the line-up — James Rae, J.G. Mertens, Wm. Sanders, Geo. Martin, Howard Malloy, Bert Widdifield, E.S. Barker, Alta Burkitt, Steve Yake and F. Lehman. Many of these men are still active and are familiar figures in town. If we could look ahead forty-eight years, I wonder what the crystal would foretell.
WHAT’S WRONG Hockey interest here in Stouffville had dropped to an all- time low. On Tuesday night at the Clipper-Collingwood game. the sum total of 103 patrons passed through the arena turn-stiles. The rows of empty seats were grim evidence of a town apparently gone sour on local winter sport. The old story about television, cost of living, weather conditions etc has some bearing on sagging attendances, but in my estimation there’s more to the story than what you read on the cover. I do not believe in kicking a man when he’s down but to be truthful the brand of hockey dished up by the local Intermediates this season is far from sensational. Pair a half-hearted hockey performance with the numerous other sports obstacles and the result is an empty rink. I believe that the Clippers are capable of a better hockey show. Many players who set their group on fire last year have completely bogged down. No village, town or city will support an entry of this calibre. This is evident at Maple Leaf Gardens where empty seats are now not uncommon. It must be disheartening for the players to perform before a handful of mildly enthusiastic supporters, but they themselves must shoulder a portion of the blame. Fans will not pay fifty cents to watch a shoot-and-chase brand of hockey. They can see that every Friday night for a mere 35c. If the boys are willing to pull up their socks, they may still retain their present fandom and even coax a number of wayward followers back to the rink. If not, then the financial status of our entry will sink as low as present fan interest. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. TWO BOWLER TIE FOR TOP TRIPLE
Although no bowler equalled Mary Cole’s high single of 277 or high triple of 622 chalked up last week in the ladies league competition, two competitors did count identical high triple scores. Marg McWhinnie and Eve Grove each rolled a 556 triple score. In the high singles department, Ruth Lee topped the group with a 249. Four other ladles bettered the 200 mark, Reta Laushway, Winnie Elson and June Baxter each collected a 205. Ruth Lee ranked well up in the high triples bracket also with a 550. The Bloopers continue to set the pace atop the league with 26. CLIPPER TOPPLE BRADFORD 7-4
The Stouffville Clippers stepped into Bradford on Saturday night and toppled the high-flying motormen 7-4. It was Bradford’s second straight setback. Ex-Dixie Juniors, John Ross and Kevin O’Connor paced the Stouffville attack. Each potted a pair of goals. Stan Thornington, Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman fired singles. Phil Nicholas picked up a pair of assists. GAYMAN TOPS CLIPPER SCORING PARADE
Unionville’s Lawrence “Debbie” Gayman is currently out front in the Clipper’s individual point-scoring parade. The agile puck-juggler has collected a total of 5 goals and 11 assists for 16 points. Phil Nicholas and team captain, Harold Hodgson are deadlocked in the runners- up position, each with 15 points. Kevin O’Connor and John Ross follow in that order. Forward Ted Vanderpol is the club’s bad man with a total of 17 minutes in the cooler. Bud Lehman has spent 16 minutes in the sin bin. The latter, however, has now gone five complete games without contracting a penalty.
December 4 1958 (con’t) CLIPPERS RALLY, TRIM COLLINGWOOD BY 5-3
The Stouffville Clippers chalked up their first victory of the season before their home town rooters on Tuesday night, staging a late-game rally. The local squad trimmed Collingwood 5-3 before only 103 frigid fans. With the exception of the early minutes in the first period and the dying stages of the final frame, the Clippers looked like mere ghosts of their ‘57’58 Ontario semi-finalist club. Their every-man-for-himself type of play failed to produce good hockey. Any passing plays they did perfect, which were very few, fizzled out at the blueline or in the corner. Collingwood were similarly unimpressive. With less than three minutes to play in the contest, Stouffville suddenly came alive and through the Collingwood defences. Geo. Carey fired the would-be winner into the cage at 18:55 of third period. Grant Edwards, Stan Thornington picked up on the tally. With thirteen seconds left in the game, Nicholas and Harold Hodgson teamed up for a neatly executed goal. Nicholas tipped Hodgson’s goalmouth pass into the corner. John Ross, one of the Clippers best players, took the night off to handle the coaching duties at Unionville. His absence was felt on the Stouffville front lines. Russ Forfar provided the homesters main drive and notched one goal. Ronnie Guy and Harold Hodgson fired singles. Louie Joubert, Allan Grier and Stan Ritchie were the Collingwood marksmen. A total of sixty minutes in penalties were handed out by the referee. There were twenty minors and two ten-minute misconducts. Stouffville players made nine trips to the cooler and Collingwood served eleven. Ted Vanderpol collected the additional misconduct detention questioning the referees decision. MIDGETS BLANK SUTTON 8-0 IN ONE-SIDED GAME
Tom Wedseltoft’s Midget entry broke into the win column on Friday night with a one sided 8-0 victory over Sutton in a scheduled North York contest. Although the homesters played below par, they had little trouble knocking off their inexperienced rivals. Six of their eight tallies were counted in the second period. They added a pair in the final frame Stouffville netminder Glenn Jackson had a comparatively easy night in turning aside a half-dozen labelled shots. Stouffville forwards on the other hand, appeared overanxious to fatten their scoring records and neglected to pass the puck on numerous occasions. Wingmen were left uncovered but the puck-carrier elected to stick-handle through the defence rather than pass the disk to his linemate. There was no scoring in the first period. Roger Stover started the ball rolling at the two minute mark of the middle frame. Lynn McMullen picked up an assist on Stover’s goal. At 3:30, Lynn McMullen blinked the light from Rick Wedseltoft to give Stouffville a 2-0 edge. Bill Hoover, a two goal marksman, fired his first marker at 5:20. Grant Foreman assisted on the tally. At the nine minute mark, Larry McMullen teamed up with Rick Wedseltoft to make it 4-0. Brother Lynn McMullen potted his second goal of the night at 12:45 with Rick Wedseltoft once again picking up an assist. Bill Hoover rounded out the second period scoring parade with an unassisted goal at the fourteen minute mark. In the final frame, Claremont’s Bob Lehman moved into Th. scoring spotlight. At 6:20, he hit the target from Bill Hoover. Less than a minute later he struck again. Grant Foreman assisted on the game’s final goal.

SPORTS SHORTS by Jim Thomas STICKS FOR STARS Every week Mr. Cec Hendricks offers a brand new All-Star hockey stick to some Peewee hockey player who performs exceptionally well in the Lions League. This week the award goes to donald smith of the Rangers. A dependable performer on both the forward line and defence, Donald gave his team a split in the points by scoring their only goal on Monday night. The tie moved the Rangers into a third place deadlock with the Black Hawks. Donald may select his stick from mr. Hendricks’ Main Street store any time this week.
ALL FOR FREE On Tuesday evening, Jan. 6th, the management of the Stouffville Clippers will make a move unprecedented in the annals of local hockey. They will hold an open house or an open rink for one night and one night only. Everybody and his brother will be admitted without charge to witness a scheduled Intermediate ‘B’ match between Stouffville and Milton. There will of course be a silver collection, where a person may contribute five cents or a silver dollar. This is an entirely new scheme and I believe it has merit. It would be nice to hear the rafters ring again with the cheers and applause of 1000 fans. Although I don’t personally believe that the 50c admission charge has kept too many fans away from hockey games here. 1 think it’s a novel idea and one that should be supported by everyone. It may prove whether there is still a spark of interest left in the local hockey public or if the soft T.V. chair has eradicated our sports enthusiasm. With such a generous ofter, I can think of no other reason to remain at home. The Clippers are starting to climb. In the past three games there has been a marked improvement in their performance. If this trend continues fans are sure to see an exciting contest all for free. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… CLIPPERS TRIM MILTON 11-8 IN SEASON’S BEST HOME PERFORMANCE
The Stouffville Clippers are starting to move. On Tuesday night the local squad chalked up an 11-8 victory over Milton for their third win-in-a-row. It was by far the most exciting home encounter of the season. The homesters can make it four straight with a win at Collingwood on Saturday night. They face their arch rivals, Bradford here on Tuesday Dec. 23. Wide Open Both clubs played wide open hockey from the opening whistle. The end-to-end rushes provided the tops in excitement for the fans but it was a veritable nightmare for both goaltenders. A total of 19 pucks were blasted between the pipes. In spite of this both netminders pulled off some excellent stops. Carpenter was especially keen in the first period and during the early stages of the second when he warded off many dangerous Milton goal=labelled drives. Minutes Apart Many of the goals were scored only minutes apart. Time keeper Lloyd Turner was one of the most overworked men in the arena. In the second period, Stouffville rapped three pucks into the Milton cage in less than two minutes. In the final frame Stouffville struck again for three tallies in four minutes. Milton also counted goals in quick succession in the second period. Art Melanson notched one goal at 12:30 and fired another at 13:20. Nicholas In Form Phil Nicholas, a slow starter for the Clippers, has hit midseason form. He was a tower of strength on Stouffville’s front line. He charged up and down the ice like a Sherman tank bowling over any rival that attempted to block his scoring bids. In two games he has collected five goals. He potted a pair on Tuesday night. Harold Hodgson kept pace with team mate Nicholas. He also fired two tallies. The remaining Clipper goals were single efforts that came from the sticks of Stan Thornington, Ted Vanderpol, John Ross, Bud Lehman, Russ Forfar, Grant Edwards and Geo. Carey. Eleven Points Milton’s two ace performers, Jack Price and Art Melanson collected a total of eleven scoring points. Price netted three goals and picked up two assists. Melanson potted a pair of tallies and assisted on four. The Milton twosome are currently leading the Int. ‘B’ group in the individual point-scoring race. Stan Hannant scored two goals. John Bell fired one. Gayman Injured Lawrence Gayman suffered a painful back injury when he slammed into the goal post during the early minutes of the final period. He was pulled down on a clean-cut break- away. Milton was penalized on the play. For a time it was feared that the agile performer might have suffered a major injury, but an immediate checkup proved no bones were broken. It is expected he will be lost to the Clippers for at least one week. The ex-Unionville puck-juggler had enjoyed a good night prior to the accident, picking up assists on four of Stouffville’s seven tallies. The milton netminder was also injured on the head when he and Clipper forward Bud Lehman crashed head-on midway through the second period. Lehman scored on the play. The goalie returned to his post after receiving minor repairs. Team Effort The Clippers, as a team looked good. Bud Lehman, John Ross, Phil Nicholas, Harold Hodgson and Geo. Carey played far above some previous contests. Jim Cruikshank has bolstered a sagging rearguard. Ted Vanderpol snapped out of his scoring slump. Joe Carpenter looked good in goal. The victory strengthened Stouffville’s hold on fourth place. One ‘B’ club will miss a group playoff spot. Collingwood currently trails Stouffville. Bradford, Georgetown and Milton are the league-leaders at the present time. The Clippers trail Milton by only a single point. RULE PENALTY SHOT IN BANTAM GAME
Penalty shots are a rarity in any league but on Thursday night Lions Bantam action, Mike Cadieux was permitted to take a free shot on the Leaf cage. His shot was blocked by goalie Wayne Oldham. The action resulted when Ted Winterfield of the Leafs pounced on a loose puck inside the goal crease. Oldham had stopped the shot but had not cleared it away from his net when Cadieux failed to score, Winterfield was forced to serve a two minute penalty. In Bantam action, Buffalo and the Leafs battled to a 2-2 tie. Pittsburg downed the Canadiens 6-4. Billy Payne counted one goal for Buffalo on a pass from Billy Brown. Brian Madill blinked the light when he teamed up with Jimmy Miller. Ross Brown picked up a goal and an assist for the Leafs. Wayne Crowder assisted on Brown’s goal. Barry McLean fired the other single tally. Roger Forsyth continues to dominate the goalscoring department for Pittsburg. On Thursday he collected four tallies as his club posted a 6-4 win over the Canadiens. Francis Haylow and Eric Neilson potted singles. Paul Stover and Robert Mole picked up points on assists. Larry Taylor notched two for the Canadiens. Bill Corner potted a pair also with assists to Kenny Aida and David Winn. MIDGETS EDGE WOODBRIDGE 4-3, MACMILLAN SCORES 2
Stouffville’s midget team soared to the top of the north york League on friday night be beating Woodbridge 4-3 in a tight contest. The local entry is currently tied with Aurora on top of the group. Larry McMullen took over from brother Lynn in the scoring spotlight and registered two goals. Lynn McMullen fired five tallies against Sutton in a previous contest. Larry McMullen’s second goal was a picture solo effort. He grabbed off a pass from Grant Foreman, deked two defencemen out of position and parked the puck neatly behind the Woodbridge netminder. It proved to be the winner. On the night’s play, there was little to choose between the two teams. Woodbridge completed some picture passing plays and outshone the homesters in that department. Stouffville were more content to resort to individual rushes. Larry McMullen with a pair, Grant Foreman and Rick Wedseltoft with singles were the Stouffville marksmen. Henry Mulder potted a pair for the visitors. Frank Ball blinked the light late in the final frame. Jeff Goofier, Woodbridge, had an excellent opportunity to deadlock the score in the dying minutes when he romped in alone on goalie Glenn Jackson. His low drive was kicked aside by the Stouffville puckstopper. Don Jackson and Merlin Harmon officiated. THREE BOWLERS TIE FOR SINGLE
The high singles honour was split three ways last week with three local bowlers attaining an identical score. Betty Wilkins, Ann Lehman and Ruth Lee each scored a 212. Gaye Rennle was close behind with a 211. Winnie Elson, Reta Laushway, Helen Hassard and Jean Baston all bettered the 200 mark. Betty Wilkins chalked up the high triple with a 546. CARSON, DISNEY TOP LEAGUE SCORING
Grant Carson and Lorne Disney are currently deadlocked at the top of the community hockey league point-scoring race. Both play with Brougham. Carson’s total comprises 7 goals and 1 assist for 8 points. Disney has collected 4 goals and 4 assists. Grant Carson is well out in front in actual goals. The Brougham trio of Carson, Disney and Glenn Carter are setting a rapid pace. To date they have totalled 22 scoring points. The trio has potted 15 goals. Rightwinger Grant Jones of Claremont climbed into a second place position with a five point outburst on Friday night. He has now collected 3 goals and 4 assists for 7 points. Ted Suzuki, Glenn Carter, Don Thomas and Murray Lewis are deadlocked on the third rung with six points.

LIONS’ MIDGETS UPSET UXBRIDGE
The Stouffville (Lions) Midget team surprised everyone, including both the opposition and themselves on Thursday night by edging Uxbridge (Juveniles) 3-2 in a speedy exhibition tilt. Stan Barclay fired the winner for the homesters at 16:55 of the last period. Wayne Pennanen. one of the best on the ice, picked up an assist on the tally. Marvin Betz turned in a spectacular goaltending performance for Stouffville. In the final frame, he blocked Garry Taylor, Barry Stemp and Bob Hall in sensational fashion. In the first period, he grabbed a hard drive from the stick of Bob Faulkner and in the 2nd frame he blocked a determined bid by John Taylor. Taylor’s bullet shot caromed off the handle of his stick. Uxbridge pulled out front at 10:20 of the first period. Goodwood’s Ron Stewart blinked the light on a pass from John Taylor. Minutes later Ken Maye of Stouffville had a good chance to even the count but his drive was stopped by goalie bruce Foote. Early In the second frame Jim Miller and Roger Forsyth combined on a nice passing effort. Foote once again held the fort. At 5:55, Wayne Pennanen broke through alone and made no mistake with a low shot to the corner. Ken Maye gained an assist on the goal. At the thirteen minute mark, Roger Forsyth put the Midgets out front. Barry McLean was credited with an assist on the tally. Uxbridge stormed back to the score. Dean Evans was the marksman. Both clubs battled back forth throughout much of final frame but neither netminder would yield a goal. With than four minutes to play, Stan Barclay fired the winner. Uxbridge pulled their goalie with eighteen seconds left in the game, but the strategy failed to pay off. Marvin Betz, Wayne Pennanen and Star Feasby were standout performers for Stouffville. Ron Stewart worked hard for Uxbridge. LIONS‘ MIDGETS BEAT BROOKLIN 6-1
The Lions midget team has shifted into high gear. On Thursday night they upset an Uxbridge Juvenile team and on Monday they trimmed Brooklin 6-1. Ken Maye paced the Stouffville attack in Monday’s tilt firing two tallies. Single goals came from the sticks of Roger Forsyth, Allan Boyd, Barry McLean and Wayne Pennanen. Bob Campbell teamed up with Garry Mitchell to spoil Marvin Betz shutout effort. Betz turned in another fine performance in the Stouffville cage. Allan Boyd shifted from the North Midget entry to the Lions’ team played well. Wayne Pennanen worked hard every time out. Norm Tindall picked up two assists. Other points were collected by Stan Feasby, Stan Barclay and Peter Stover. As we go to press the team is engaged in a game with Pickering. Midway through the 1st period, Stouffville holds a 3-0 lead over their southern rivals. Warren Hendricks, Allan Boyd and Roger Forsyth were the marksmen. MILLER FIRES HAT TRICK FOR BUFFALO
Buffalo’s Jim Miller was in rare form on Thursday night. He fired three goals to lead his team to a 5-3 victory over the Canadiens in a Lions’ League contest. Garry Gall potted a pair. The twosome of Frank Taylor and Bill Corner provided the spark for the Canadiens. Taylor scored two goals. Corner notched one and picked up two assists. Bobby Wagg played a good game in the Canadien’s net but he couldn’t block all the pucks that were fired at him by Buffalo forwards. He made three fine stops on shots by Garry Gall, Jm Miller and Brian Madill.

SPORTS SHORTS by Jim Thomas STICKS FOR STARS Every week local hardware merchant, Mr. Cec Hendricks donates a free hockey stick to some lucky peewee player in the Lions’ League. For a fine all-round performance on Monday evening of last week, brent weldon of the Rangers is the unanimous choice. Although he failed to score a goal, he was a standout performer every time out. He may select his All-Star stick this week.
TOO MANY WEAK LINKS “A chain is only as strong as its weakest link.” This slogan could well be attributed to the Clippers hot and cold hockey performances this season. There are too many weak links in the team chain. As a unit, I don’t believe there is a better club in the local circuit, but it is seldom that coach Watson is able to dress the same players in consecutive games. For one reason, since the start of the schedule players have been coming and going with such rapidity that the forward lines are continually being rearranged. Players should realize that when they sign a certificate and then quit at midstream it puts the management and remaining team members in a bad boat. The situation is even more serious when the player is a select import. Defenceman Ronnie Guy pulled up stakes when he took exception to criticism from the Management. After a two week layoff, he is now back in the lineup. Rearguard Mark Mills played two or three games and has not been seen since. According to reports, he desired a salary in exchange for his hockey talent. He has not obtained a release but does not plan to return. Geo. Stark performed in three games and gave the Clipper defence a tremendous boost. He was injured in a game here and has not been back. Rearguard Jim Cruikshank was given his release but has rejoined the team. Defenceman Moe Blackwell was to be dropped but has been retained. And so it goes. Add a few injuries to key players and it is quite understandable why the Clippers are currently fighting to retain the final playoff spot. …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. LEAFS AND CANADIENS PLAT TO 5-5 TIE
The Maple Leafs and Canadiens battled to a 5-5 draw on Tuesday morning of last week in Lions Bantam League action ross brown set the scoring pace for the leafs bagging a pair of goals and picking up one assist. Single tallies came from the sticks of Barry McLean, Larry Taylor and Jim Hill. Claremont’s Frank Taylor scored two goals and assisted on another for the Canadiens. Keith Foreman kept pace with his team mate by counting a pair. Bill Corner notched one. Hornets 5, Buffalo 1 Roger Forsyth continues his high-scoring pace with the Hornets. On Tuesday he fired two tallies and collected two assists. Francis Haylow blinked the light for a pair. Arlan Galbraith notched one. MIDGETS “BLOW” LEAD TIE NEWMARKET 5-5
An over-confident Stouffville Midget team “blew” a three goal lead chalked up in the early minutes of the first period to split the points in a 5-5 draw with Newmarket on Friday night. Newmarket are a ‘B’ class club. Stouffville is rated as ‘C’. Take the McMullen brothers off the local club and Stouffville’s goalscoring punch would be cut by fifty percent. The twin combination has been ma ing a complete runaway of the local’s goal production. It was the same story on Friday night. They clicked for 4 of the five Stouffville tallies. Each potted a pair. Grant Foreman teamed up with linemate Bill Hoover to notch a single. Within the space of nine minutes, Stouffville held a 3-0 lead. Lynn McMullen blinked the light on a pass from Rick Wedseltoft at 1:45. Four minutes later Grant Foreman scored. Larry McMullen netted the 3rd marker from Bob Lehman. Newmarket rallied to close the gap late in the first frame. Ken Needler potted a pair. Larry McMullen made it 4-2 for the homesters at 18:15 but Wilf O’Reilly kept the Canaltown crew in the contest with his team’s third goal with only forty-five seconds remaining in the period. The second period was all Newmarket in the goalscoring department. Ken Needer, a hat-trick marksman for the visitors, put both teams on even terms at 8:50. Garry Palithorpe made it 5-4. Lynn McMullen came to the rescue of the Stouffville squad at 7:10 of the final frame. Rick Wedseltoft picked up an assist on the play. There were nine penalties in the contest, four to Stouffville and five to Newmarket. Joe Crowhurst of Ballantrae has been added to the Midget roster and made his initial start on Friday night. CLIPPERS BATTLE BRADFORD IN 5-5 OVERTIME DRAW
A timely goal by Stouffville’s Stan Thornington at 6:10 of an overtime period, gave the Clippers a 5-5 tie with Bradford on Tuesday night of last week. The seesaw battle was extended when Bradford’s Laurie Thoms blinked the light at 13:31 of the third period. Stouffville’s Geo. Carey had previously notched the would-be winner on a nice solo effort. Midway through the frame his tally was nullified by Thoms unassisted effort. In the overtime, Bradford drew first blood. Fraser Dunn hit the target after only forty seconds had ticked by. Thornington evened the count five minutes later to split the points. Joe Carpenter, goal guardian for the Clippers, was nothing short of sensational throughout the entire game. His brilliant performance far surpassing the effort of Georgetown’s “Dusty” Rhodes in a previous encounter was the lone stumbling block in the path of Bradford forwards. He blocked an estimated 50 shots. Many of these were clean-cut breakaway. In the final minute of play, Bradford streaked in on Carpenter but he held the fort. He also turned aside a scoring bid by the visitors speedy Davis in the final frame. It was by far the finest netminding display seen in the arena this season. Stouffville’s five goals were evenly split among these players; Lawrence Gayman, Kevin O’Connor, John Ross and Stan Thornington. Tempers flared in the third period. Bradford’s Geo. Davis crashed into Clipper goalie Joe Carpenter. Harsh verbal exchanges accompanied a two minute meted out to Davis. Coach Jack Watson of the Clippers took exception to Davis’ action on the play. Stouffville failed to take advantage of the additional manpower. CLIPPERS LOSE TO GEORGETOWN 10-5 ON FRIDAY
In spite of some fine netminding by Stouffville’s Joe Carpenter, the Clippers suffered a 10-5 setback at the hands of Georgetown on Friday night. Defenceman Russ Forfar potted a pair of goals. Single tallies came from the sticks of Lawrence Gayman, Harold Hodgson and John Ross. Blake Ingles netted a three goal hat trick for the Raiders. Bill Chard with a pair. Bud Varey, Nick Ferri, Junior Beaumont, Jamie Cunningham and Bill Hewitt were the Georgetown marksmen. The Stouffville management protested an officials call on a breakaway by forward John Ross. The referee halted the game as Ross streaked in on the Georgetown cage unmolested. According to coach Watson the official said he heard a whistle in the crowd, so immediately nullified the rush. If Ross had scored on the play it would have cut the Raiders lead down to only two goals. WINGS BLANK RANGERS 4-0
The red Wings, paced by captain Ronnie Castle, blanked the Rangers. 4-0 on Dec. 22nd. Both tallies were unassisted efforts. David and Bill Lehman fired the other goals. In the other game, the Bruins beat the Black Hawks 4-1. Bruce Mehaffey potted a pair of goals for Boston. Paul Lintner and Billy Harmon notched singles. David Whittington teamed up with Robert Daniels to score the lone Hawk tally.

A SMART MOVE i understand that the OMHA will bring in a new ruling shortly that will outlaw all boarding behind the end zone red line. I feel that this is a smart move and one that should be enforced more strictly in OHA ranks in Bantam, Midget and Juvenile ranks. Many performers with more brawn than brains take considerable delight in sandwiching a rival against the back boards for no apparent reason. A lighter adversary is often a dead duck when caught in such situations. Unless he is able to sidestep his opponent, he must reluctantly absorb the bone-crushing jolt. Many an above-average player has been sidelined through this practice. I hope the officials will enforce the rule to the letter of the law.
STICKS FOR STARS This week two peewee players will be presented with All-Star hockey sticks from Mr. Cec Hendricks’ Hardware Store on Main Street. Due to a switch in the schedule during the Christmas vacation period, one selection was omitted. This week, we returned to our normal operation and will make amends by picking two winners. For his fine performance on Monday Dec. 29th, eric hamilton is our first choice. Although his Black Hawks suffered a 9-4 defeat, Eric fired two goals and picked up one assist in the losers cause. He may select his All-Star stick when convenient. Our second star is paul lintner of the Bruins. As in the previous week, Paul performed well in spite of a loss chalked up against his club, he counted two of his teams three tallies. The game was played on Monday Jan. 5th. Paul may pick up his stick this week.
TOE TO TOE On Tuesday night in the Stouffville Arena we witnessed one of the instances where an official suffered a rather serious injury when he attempted to break up a fistic encounter between two rival players. A stray overhand left warped the nose of referee Promaine and momentarily dazed the official. The fight continued unabated. I say that as long as the players are standing on their skates and are resorting only to bare fists, let them fight it out. Very few individuals are seriously injured in this way. Should the combatants fail to the ice and continue the skirmish, then the officials can move in and assume control. No referee or lineman can afford to be knocked and battered about by rowdy players. When he steps between two fist-swinging pugilists. he’s merely asking for trouble. Although he may be criticized for not separating the sparring performers, it is he and not his critics who must endure the blackened eyes and loosened teeth. In the majority of cases a players bark is worse than his bite. Many a man becomes a Goliath when he has a half-dozen team mates hanging onto his arms. Turn him loose and he immediately loses his fighting spirit. Although this wasn’t the case here on Tuesday night. neither O’Connor of the Clippers nor Price of Milton inflicted any injury on his rival. The referee, on the other hand, looked like some escapee from the Cuban revolution. His taped and bandaged face was in sharp contrast to a bruised nose and darkened eyes. Needless to say, the fans appeared to enjoy every minute of the blow by blow encounter. The official gained few sympathizers for his action in attempting to break up the brawl. Even with blood smearing his striped sweater, a number of unthinking spectators continued their derisive barrage of comments. It’s a rough life.
MOST FEARED It would appear that we have been under-estimating the strength of our local Clippers. Having talked with a number of coaches and players of different clubs in the loop, I find that the majority hold more respect for Stouffville’s front line power than for other teams in the group. From Georgetown, Milton, Bradford and Collingwood comes the same story. The trouble is that local fans have watched the Clippers perform minus some of their topflight stars. Within recent weeks, they have been piling up huge scores. These have been games where a full roster has been in attendance. An almost sure bet for a playoff post, the Clippers may yet make their weight felt when the teams pair off for the group championship. ……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. REFEREE’S NOSE IS BROKEN IN LATE GAME BRAW HERE
A long-standing feud between Stouffville’s Kevin O’Connor and Milton’s Jack Price flared anew on Tuesday night as the two players squared off in a fist-swinging duel late in the third period. Referee Al Promaine of Richmond Hill suffered the only injury in the tussle. An overhand left thrown by Price caught the official flush on the nose. It was reset by Doctor Donald smith of Stouffville following the completion of the contest. Stouffville trimmed Milton 12-6. O’Connor of the Clippers and Price of Milton tangled in front of the Milton net. The minor skirmish developed into an all-out brawl when other players joined the melee, Harold Hodgson and John Ross of Stouffville were also involved. Ross injured his left hand in the fight. The contest was delayed more than ten minutes before officials, Promaine and Polly Minton could part the combatants and administer the necessary penalties. O’Connor and Price were banished from the game. Two other players received majors. A total of 82 minutes in penalties were handed out by referee Promaine. Of this total O’Connor contracted 27 minutes. He was pegged with a minor, a major, a misconduct and a game misconduct. The Price-O’Connor feud was a carryover of a grudge entertained from Junior ‘B’ ranks. O’Connor was a former player Dixie Beehives. The free admission night attracted some 230 fans, the seasons largest crowd. A silver collection netted $60.00. In tie goal-scoring department, Ted Vanderpol, Bud Lehman, Geo. Carey and Harold Hodgson each potted a pair. Single tallies came from the sticks of Stan Thornington, Phil Nicholas, Ronnie Guy and Grant Edwards. Milton’s goals were evenly divided through the club. Ken Brown, Glenn Dance, Gary Hughes, John Heipel, Larry Shuker and “Cracker” Evans were the marksmen. Aside from any bruised knuckles or reddened faces gained in the fisticuffs, three Stouffville players suffered earlier injuries. Bud Lehman received a gash on the mouth which necessitated medical treatment. Goalie Joe Carpenter injured his hand and defenceman George Stark was clipped on the head with a high stick. Forward Phil Nicholas also injured his leg but continued in the game. Geo. Stark returned to the rearguard and was effective every time out. The win on Tuesday night vaulted Clippers into sole posses of third place. They trail second place Georgetown by 5 and lead fourth place Milton by two. Bradford currently lead the league with 13 wins and 2 ties in 19 games. Georgetown will be the visitors on Tuesday Jan. 13th. STICK-SWINGING ATTACK BY ALLISTON PLAYER BRINGS SUSPENSION
The OHA has ruled that Jack Bartlett, rightwinger withe Alliston “Chevies” should be suspended for three games following a stick-swinging incident at a scheduled Intermediate ‘B’ game here on Tuesday night of last week. The Clippers trounced their rivals 13-1. The skirmish resulted after Bud Lehman of stouffville took Bartlett into the boards during the late stages of the 3rd period. The players exchanged blows and Bartlett was floored. When the officials finally parted the combatants, Bartlett swung his stick in axe-like fashion and clipped Lehman on the side of the head. He was immediately banished from the ice with a match penalty. Lehman received a major. A total of fifty minutes was meted out during the contest. This included five and twelve majors and twelve minors in first period. Kevin O’Connor, Moe Blackwell of Stouffville became involved in a melee with Alliston’s Stan James and Bill Schell. They each received five minute detentions in the sin bin. Throughout the game the Clippers were in complete command. They held a 10-0 lead before alliston finally hit the target. Wayne Hurst notched the visitors lone tally. Harold Hodgson paced Stouffville’s attack with a three goal hat trick. Kevin O’Connor potted a pair. Singles came from the sticks of Phil Nicholas, Stan Thornington, Bud Lehman, Ted Vanderpol, Grant Edwards, George Carey, Jim Cruikshank and Moe Blackwell. TEDDY TODD SWEEPS RANGERS TO WIN
Teddy Todd of the Rangers has become a real artist at scoring goals. On Monday night, his team edged the Bruins 4-3. Teddy fired all four Ranger tallies. Danny Irwin and Larry Plaskett picked up one assist on two of the goals. Todd’s performance was enough to beat the Boston team in spite of a fine performance by Bruins’ Paul Lintner. Paul potted a pair of goals and picked up one assist. Rioux notched a single. Wings 5, Hawks 4 Blair Wagg is rapidly becoming one of the most potent goal scorers in the Lions Peewee League. Last week he fired two goals and on Monday night he repeated his performance in addition to picking up an assist. His Red Wings edged the Black Hawks 5-4. Ronnie Castle, Larry Foote and David Oldham were the other Red Wing marksmen. The Hawk tallies were evenly divided among Pat Smith, Bob Brown, David Whittington and Eric Hamilton. Mike Roxborough, Charles Yake and Barry Hiltz picked up assists. Peter Turner was credited with an assist on Ronnie Castle’s goal. LEAFS THUMP BUFFALO 7-3
The Maple Leafs thumped Buffalo 7-3 on Tuesday of last week. Paced by Barry McLean with three goals and one assist, the winners chalked up a one sided victory. Ross Brown and Larry Taylor each potted a pair for the Bantams. Billy Payne, Gary Gall and Brian Madill fired singles for Buffalo. Tom Benson picked up an assist on Gall’s tally. Canadiens 6, Hornets 4 In spite of a three goal hat trick by Pittsburg’s Roger Forsyth, the Canadiens rolled up a 6-4 win over the Hornets. Bill Corner was a two goal marksman for the winners. Jim Harper, Frank Taylor, Keith Foreman and David Winn each notched one. Francis Haylow fired a lone marker for Pittsburg. UNIONVILLE EDGES MIDGETS 5-4
To grab a three goal lead the first period is a fortunate situation for most teams for Stouffville’s North York Midgets. It’s a bad omen. For the second week in a row, the local squad has held a 3-0 advantage, only to see it fade away in the latter stages. It happened against Newmarket and again with Unionville. Both teams are ranked in a higher class. On Friday night Roger Stover, Grant Foreman and Lynn McMullen fired successive tallies to give Stouffville a 3-0 lead. The Unionville team started the rally rolling at 17:30 of first period. Ken Beckett broke the ice. At 15:20 of the middle frame, John Saunders tamed up with Nels Ham to put the visitors back in the game. Saunders blinked the light again four minutes later to deadlock the score. In the final frame Unionville outscored the homesters 2-1. Bill hit the target from Conlin after only one minute had ticked by. Conlin fired the winner at 10:45. Johnson picked up an assist. Although it appeared likely Stouffville might gain a split in the points when Grant scored from Lynn McMullen the locals could not count the equalizer. The game marked by a number of flare-ups and fights. Don Jackson and Merlin Harmon officiated. DON SMITH FIRES GOALS FOR RANGERS
The Ranger’s Donald Smith ran wild in a scoring way on Monday Dec. 29th. The Peewee performer fired four goals and picked up one assist as his team trounced the Black Hawks 9-4. Brent Weldon also fared well potting a pair of goals and assisting on two others. Benny Aida. Larry Plaskett and Danny Irwin collected singles. Teddy Todd picked up one assist for the Hawks. Eric Hamilton set the pace with two goals and one assist. Pat Smith and Billy Harper notched singles.

SPORTS SHOTS by Jim Thomas STICKS FOR STARS You don’t have to be a razzle-dazzle goal scorer to be selected as the weeks all star player this week. The award goes to billy harmon of the Black Hawks. Although Billy failed to score a goal or pick up an assist, his all-round steady performance on Monday evening rated him the number one selection. The winner will be presented with a new hockey stick by MR. CEC Hendricks at his local Main street store.
CLOSED DOOR POLICY Reporters, beware! The dressing room of Stouffville’s North York Midget entry has been declared out of bounds to local newsmen. The closed door policy was adopted on Friday night following a scheduled game with Markham. Your writer was refused admittance by the team’s sponsor, Tom Wedseltoft, when he attempted to obtain the scoring statistics from the players. Your writer was also refused permission to peruse the completed players’ sheet. Such unorthodox methods as practiced by the local sponsor to my knowledge set an all-time low standard in sports public relations. To date, no satisfactory explanation has been given for the “iron curtain” policy. In my more than eight years on the local sports scene, I have always received the greatest co-operation and assistance from team managements. It is true that coaches have often disagreed or even resented certain comments I have made, but never once — not once have they resorted to similar tactics as experienced on Friday evening. I think it should be pointed out, Sir, that attending hockey games in the arena three and four nights each week cannot be considered as any May-day picnic. Although I enjoy the sport, for the most part, I consider it to be only part of my position and one that 1 will continue to fill. I do not feel that coverage of North York Midget games has any noticeable effect on the Tribune’s audited circulation. Be this as it may, I will make every effort to attend whenever possible. Aside from jotting clown a goal by goal report of the game, a reporter has numerous other methods whereby he may obtain the necessary statistics. Players, I have found have never been adverse to providing such information. They enjoy the game and, win or lose, they are proud of their achievements. It is only natural that they would desire to see these accomplishments in print. I sincerely hope so. Mr.Wedseltoft’s main grievance was. I believe, that “the boys who were doing the work weren’t getting the credit.” In other words, too much stress was being placed on the prowess of the goal scorer. I must admit that there are many important aspects to a hockey game aside from putting the rubber disk in the net, but time and space will not permit a play by play written description of a sixty minute game. For this reason, a reporter must select only the highlights of the contest for his condensed story. I’m afraid that the chap with the ability to put the puck in the cage, falls into this class. After all that’s how hockey games are won. So, Mr. Sponsor, you may retain your score cards. You may keep the bar on the door. I don’t really care. But you may be sure the games will be reported MY way. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….. CLIPPERS BLOW LEAD, LOSE TO GEORGETOWN
The season’s largest crowd watched Georgetown spot the Clippers a two goal lead on Tuesday night, then battle back to claim a thrilling 4-2 victory. Goaltenders Joe Carpenter of Stouffville and Jack Rhodes of the Raiders pulled off some spectacular stop throughout the contest. Carpenter was especially keen in the second period. Rhodes held the fort in the final frame. Both clubs were given standing ovations by their respective supporters on the night’s play. There was little to choose between the teams. The Clippers held a definite edge in the first period but Georgetown turned the tide in the second. Stouffville poured in on the Raider’s net in the final stages of the contest but failed to find an opening in Rhodes’ armour. Throughout much of the last period, the Clippers enjoyed an advantage in manpower, but they failed to make it count. A total of sixteen penalties were handed out by referee Loring Doolittle. Ten of these went to Georgetown and six to the Clippers. The Clippers showed too much drive for their opposition in the first frame. Stouffville forwards forechecked the Raiders to a standstill and beat their rivals to the puck on almost every play. Their heads-up performance paid off in a goal by Grant Edwards at 3:35 and one by Ted Vanderpol at 17:17. Georgetown broke the ice with only three seconds left in the period. Nick Ferri was the marksman. Grant “Stubby” Edwards looked best for the Clippers. The Stouffville forward skated himself into exhaustion every time out. He was used to kill off penalties in addition to his regular shift. He kept Georgetown attackers continually bottled up in their own zone with a fine forechecking performance. He fired the Clippers initial tally and set linemate Ted Vanderpol up for his team’s second goal. Defenceman Jim Cruikshank was sitting out a two minute elbowing penalty at the time. Although Stouffville pressed the attack in the final frame, they couldn’t get any direct shots on the Georgetown cage. Goalie Jack Rhodes was a stonewall in the net and failed to yield a single tally. Grant Edwards, Geo. Carey, Harold Hodgson and Lawrence Gayman tested his puck-stopping ability but he held the fort on each occasion. John Ross blazed a low drive off the goal post. Two wrongs don’t make a right as forwards Phil Nicholas and Stan Thornington discovered in the final minutes of the game. Trailing 3-2 and with time running out, Coach Watson pulled netminder Carpenter from the cage in favour of an extra recruit. When it appeared likely that the homesters might sink the equalizer, Georgetown broke free from their own zone but a drive on the open net was blocked by Harold Hodgson. Phil Nicholas was banished with a two minute interference penalty to worsen the situation. Stan Thornington of the Clippers dumped the puck onto the stick of Georgetown’s Dave Irons at centre ice and he made no mistake with his breakaway shot. With less than twenty seconds left in the game, all chances of pulling the contest out of the fire went by the boards. The re-acquisition of rearguard geo. Stark has given the Stouffville defence a real lift. The local rearguard picked up an assist on the first Clipper goal and came close to scoring another when he dipsy-doodled through the entire Raider team to Rhodes’ doorstep. With Thornington of stouffville in the cooler, defenceman Jim Cruikshank broke up a two-man rush. He took forward Bill Chard out of the play with a flying tackle. The Clippers journey to Beeton on Friday night and then play host to Collingwood here on Tuesday. Stouffville currently holds down the third place position in the group, trailing Bradford and Georgetown. Milton are in the fourth and last playoff position. CLIPPERS WHIP MILTON 7-4, O’CONNER NETS 3
The Stouffville Clippers handed Milton their second successive defeat on Friday night. In a previous encounter played here on Tuesday night of last week, Jack Watson’s squad racked up a 12-6 win. On Friday night they stepped onto Milton’s home ice and registered a 7-4 victory. Kevin O’Connor paced the Stouffville attack with a three goal hat trick. Ted Vanderpol, who couldn’t buy a goal during the schedule’s earlier games, has been a consistent marksman in recent contests. He potted a pair on Friday. Jim Cruikshank and Bud Lehman fired singles. Helpel, Hughes, McCann and Melanson were the Milton scorers. Joe Carpenter continued his fine work in the Clipper cage and pulled off a number of fine saves. LIONS MIDGETS WHIP AJAX, 7-2
Warren Hendricks, local sharp shooter, who led the ‘57’58 Bantam team into the Ontario finals last spring, has hit his mid-season form after a rather slow start. The dipsy-doodle artist is now scoring goals and setting up his wingers on picture plays. On Thursday night of last week, the locals humbled Ajax 7-2. On Friday evening they journeyed to Uxbridge and suffered an 8-2 setback at the hands of Juvenile opposition. In the Ajax clash, Warren Hendricks scored two goals and picked up a pair of assists. Ken May notched one tally and assisted on a marker by Wayne Hamilton. Right wing speedster Jim Knox hit the target for a single goal and assisted on Hendrick’s final tally. Joe Herold and Wayne Pennanen hit the target in the early stages of the contest. Ajax scored a pair in the final frame. In the game at Uxbridge, Warren Hendricks and Allan Boyd were the marksmen for Stouffville. Marvin Betz played well in the Stouffville cage but could not turn aside an avalanche of Uxbridge shots. BLAIR, WAGG POT PAIR FOR WINGS
Blair Wagg is currently setting the Lions Peewee League on fire. The steady performer collected two goals and one assist on Monday evening to lead the Red Wings to a tight 4-3 win over the Rangers. Ronnie Castle notched one goal and picked up an assist. Bill Lehman equalled Castle’s total. Donald Smith, Teddy Todd and Danny Irwin each fired singles for the Rangers. Benny Aida and Robt.

He added to his total on Thursday evening by scoring a three goal hat trick. Francis Haylow netted a pair. Single tallies came from the sticks of Allan Galbraith and Paul Stover. Paul Grose picked up an assist on Stover’s goal. Aided by Forsyth’s markers, the Hornets downed the leafs 7-4. The Leaf’s goals were evenly divided among four separate players. Roy Perrault, Barry McLean, Ross Brown and Tim Kennedy were the marksmen. Ross Brown assisted on Kennedy’s goal. TIE LEASIDE 4-4, LOSE TO NEWMARKET

SPORTS SHORTS by Jim Thomas LOCAL STATISTICIAN Every winter for the past number of years, there has been utter confusion within the ranks of our local OHA group with regard to team standings, point-scoring leaders etc. No one was ever able to provide the weekly press with an up-to-date listing. Fans had little knowledge of whether their home club was on top of the loop or mired in the cellar. This season the problem has been solved. Early in the fall, Russ Forfar of Stouffville decided he would attempt to keep a game by game record. The plan, of course, met with complete approval by other group representatives. They agreed to assist and it must be admitted they have done surprisingly well. Almost weekly, Mr. Forfar submits group standings and individual scoring statistics to every paper connected with a local entry. In addition, he has been responsible for much of the radio, television and daily paper publicity. I believe our readers should know about the fine job Mr. Forfar has done in keeping the records straight. He has performed a work that has been sorely neglected in the past.
HIDDEN TALENT There may be hidden talent in the Lions Peewee League that as yet has not been discovered by local coaches. This fact was revealed on Monday evening when a forward was transformed into a goaltender and became a star in one night. benny aida, a member of the Rangers, agreed to handle the netminding chores in the absence of the teams regular goal-guardian. Due mainly to his efforts, the Rangers edged the Black Hawks 2-1. For a fine performance in a new role, we are pleased to select Benny as the all star of the week. He will be presented with a new hockey stick by Mr. Cec Hendricks local hardware merchant in Stouffville. ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… BEN AIDA IN RANGER GOAL, WIN 2-1
Ranger forward, Ben Aida donned the big pads on Monday night and took over the goal- tending chores in the absence of the teams regular netminder. His fine performance between the pipes was mainly responsible for a close 2-1 vic tory over the Black Hawks. Ben Aida’s puck-stopping ability was supported by single goals from the sticks of Teddy Todd and Donald Smith. Both tallies were assisted. Claremont’s Arthur Maxwell netted the lone Hawk goal. Wings 3, Bruins 1 The Red Wings paced by a pair of goals by captain Ronnie Castle, downed the Bruins 3-1. John Heaton fired a single for the winners. Bruce Mehaffey teamed up with Cornelius Matvecky to sink the lone Bruin marker. MIDGET PLAYER EJECTED IN 2ND PERIOD FIGHT
Willard Peddie of Stouffville and Derek Scott of Aurora were tossed out of a scheduled North York Midget game here on Friday night after they became involved in a wild fist- swinging brawl. The action occurred in the second period. Peddie and Scott entered the fray after referee Don Jackson had succeeded in partially separating two other combatants. While proceeding to the penalty box, the players renewed the skirmish. They were immediately banished from the game. Displaying a strong passing and shooting attack,, Aurora chalked up a 5-2 victory. The Yonge street squad are a ‘B’ class club. Stouffville is rated in ‘C’, Goalie Glenn Jackson turned in a superb performance in the local’s cage. in the second and third periods he was pelted with pucks but he yielded only three tallies. Chas. Leemlng potted a pair. Bob Wall, Garry Webb and Brian Knowles notched singles for the visitors. The trio of Grant Foreman and the McMullen brothers proved to be the most potent combination for Stouffville. The twins each fired singles. Keith McDowell and Rick Wedseltoft each had good chances to score but their shots were blocked. Lynn McMullen caromed a shot off the goal post in the dying minutes of the game. MINOR CLUBS SPIT WITH UXBRIDGE, PEEWEE LOSE 4-0
Stouffville’s three minor hockey teams sponsored by the Lions Club saw action on Thursday night in the annual Young Canada tournament. Stouffvllle’s Peewee club suffered a 4-0 setback to Unionville but the local Bantam squad chalked up 5-2 win over Uxbridge. The Midgets bowed to Uxbridge 4-3 in a three period thriller. Moore Stars The 4-0 shutout suffered by the Peewee team to a visiting Unionville team could not be blamed on the performance of goalie Freddie Moore. Taking charge in the nets for the second half, the Claremont puck-stopper pulled off a number of fine stops. Unionville had a good share of the territorial play and only Moore’s fine work held the opposition to a mere four tallies. Jeff Gaston notched a three goal hat trick for the winners. Terry Blundell fired one. Stouffville had a number of good chances to score but each attempt was turned aside by goalie Allan Gaston. Ted Redshaw, Tom Benson and brian madill formed one attacking forward line. David Jackson, Jim Mehaffey and Arlan Galbraith formed another trio. Ronnie Castle, Bill Lehman and Barry Hiltz comprised a third threesome. On the night’s play, Moore’s work between the pipes far overshadowed the performance of his team mates. He blocked pointblank drives from Jeff Gaston, Robin Hood, Terry Weatherill and Geo. Prentice. Bill Farthing handled the goaltendlng chores in the first frame.

Richmond Hill 12 Stouffville 11
Stouffville Midgets blew a seven run lead in their game with Richmond Hill in the Yonge St. town on Wednesday night to drop their contest 12-11. Stouffville was leading 10-3 at the half way mark. Schell was replaced on the mound by Wells who walked a couple of runs. However, the winning run was not scored until the final innings when an error and a hit allowed the Hill to make it an even dozen runs and take the game.
Milliken Midgets 6 Stouffville 5
Stouffville Midgets dropped a 6-5 decision to Milliken on Monday night, in a game which was notable chiefly for its errors. The home team had a four run margin at one time, but went into the final innings trailing. Schell, who had turned in a good performance for Stouffville on the mound, was the first man at bat, and was called out on an infield hit, when the umpire apparently overlooked the fact that the runner was completely blocked in his attempt to reach the sack. With this potential tying run snuffed out at first base, the remainder of the Stouffville batters were retired in order. Incidentally this was the first game the Milliken Midgets had won. ECKARDT TROPHY HERE AGAIN
At Agincourt on June 21 a Stouffville lawn bowling rink captured the big Eckardt trophy, which has been traveling about the district for some years now, reposing in Toronto a good deal of the time. However, on Friday night the cup was won by a rink skipped by F.L. Button, supported by Blake Sanders and Dawson Hare.
Back in 1932 a Stouffville rink also captures the trophy, skipped that year by the late James Ratcliff and in 1927 it was won by a rink skipped by the late Davis Russell. The silverware is on display in Riches Hardware window. AGINCOURT WINS BOWLING TROPHY
Fifteen rinks competed in the mens’ trebles bowling tournament staged on the local greens on Wednesday, and the Stouffville Old Boys trophy presented by F.L. Button and Dr. G.H.

WIND UP SCHEDULE 6-4 WIN FROM HILL
Stouffville Juniors wound their regular Junior baseball schedule on Tuesday night with a neat 6-4 win over Richmond Hill. The local nine were full value for their win, and only allowed four men a place at the plate in the final innings. Both pitchers turned in a fine display, Miller striking out eight for Stouffville out of twenty-nine batters who faced him, and Charles having seven go down out of thirty-two local batters who he faced. While all the Stouffvillites shared in the victory, an extra big hand went to Smith in left field, who pulled down two beautiful shot-string catches Stouffville swung their heaviest bats in the third innings, the entire line-up battling around, three men dying on bases.
This game completes the regular schedule, and whether or not there will be league play-offs is still in doubt. However, Stouffville will definitely go into the O.B.A. Junior playdowns, and in the event of no play-offs, games may be arranged with Toronto teams to keep the boys in trim until O.B.A. play-off time.

TOP HONOURS FOR STOUFFVILLE PLOWMEN
Two of Plowmen Win Overseas Trip at the International Match
Fred Timbers and Floyd Steckley will spend six weeks in Britain Isles studying farming methods. Two of the top prizes awarded at the first post-war International match which was held last week near Goderich were won by Stouffville plowmen. Fred Timbers captured the Imperial Oil Company’s gold medal, plus a free trip to the British Isles, for doing the best plowing with tractor in the open class. Thousands of spectators watched the performance, comparing Timbers’ land with those of the many competitors, for it was not forgotten that Fred had stood tops in not only Canada but the United States on previous performances.
Floyd Steckley captured a similar win by turning the best furrow with horse plow, thereby winning the gold medal in this class, also the all-expense tour to the British Isles guest of the Salada Tea Co. Floyd also captured another first prize on Friday.
The other two top prizes went to Alex Black of Guelph in tractor class, and Austin Nairn of Munro, in the horse class. The four winners will spend six weeks overseas after the new year, studying conditions and methods, and trying their skill against the workers over there.
Not only did two of the four top honours come to Stouffville other coveted prizes were captured by the younger generation, that bids fair to uphold the tradition of their dads.
David Ratcliff, who brought home $80 in prize money, son of Ross Ratcliff, in the class of 72 competitors stood second in a tractor competition in stubble. David, along with Bob Timbers (son of Win) composed the York County tractor team in Friday’s competition. There was just one point between York and Simcoe County and Brant County teams. Judges said they could not decide, so flipped a coin for first, second, and third. This gave the top position to Brant, second place to Simcoe County, and third to York County team. Evidently our lads are true plowmen, but not coin tossers.
In the inter-county junior farmers competition with horses and jointer plows, Lloyd Parrish of Uxbridge along with Lloyd Ball of Uxbridge, won second place for Ontario County. They obtained 150 1/4 points just two and a quarter less than the Brant County team which came first. Ontario county men to gain rating in the tractor competition on Thursday were Jack Beaton, Backwater; Ronald Marquis, Sunderland and Russell Morrison, Beaverton.
Bob Timbers on the first day of the match won a first prize in tractor stubble, in a heavy entry. His uncle Fred won a first on each of three days he plowed with tractor.
Among the prominent winners was Eddie Timbers of Scarboro, who was not eligible to compete in the overseas competition, since he captured it just before the war, and accepted a cash prize in lieu of the holiday abroad, which was not feasible because of war conditions. When a competitor wins this prize once he cannot compete again.
Announcement of the awards was made at a banquet at which the principle speaker was Agriculture Minister Gardiner, who recently returned from European tour.
He told the 1500 persons present that Canadians have been too much inclined to accept what he termed false propaganda that persons outside North America have been undergoing suffering never known on this continent.
He said Europe was making an amazing recovery and that Germany never a self-sufficient nation, this year would produce all but 40 percent of her own food. He said slum areas of The Hague, Holland, compare favourably with the better houses of many Canadian cities. OVER NINETY-FIVE PERCENT OF BUSINESSMEN SIGN PETITION URGING OF HALL
A petition signed by over ninety-five percent of the business men of Stouffville in addition to many other ratepayers, was presented to the municipal council on Wednesday evening urging the council to submit the question of the erection of a Memorial Hall to a vote of the ratepayers, and pledging support in carrying the vote to a successful conclusion.
The vote to be taken will ask the permission of the ratepayers of Stouffville for the issuance of debentures for $25,000 for the erection os a Memorial Hall, when materials are available.
Council viewed with favour the petition and prepared for Dec., 9th, this year’s election date. “No place in Ontario needs a hall as badly as Stouffville,” stated Councillor Jack Smits. “We’re certainly losing out when it comes to not having a hall,” stated Councillor Button, “important banquets, conventions and concerts all have to be passed up.” “We must still remember we have the matter of returned men to think about, and this is an excellent opportunity to tie in our memorial project with the long-felt need in town,” the reeve stated. It was also pointed out again that it is still the wish of the Veterans Association that the hall be built.
Mr. Bert Bell who tabled the petition on behalf of the Citizens’ Committee in charge of the original hall project stated that he had been given to understand by a number of the veterans that if ratepayers saw fit to go ahead with the Memorial Hall they would give up any ideas they had of erecting a hall in Whitchurch Twp. at the corner of the 9th concession
Every organization in town is expected to get behind the project and provide a large majority vote for the bylaw, while many others whose names do not appear on the Petition, have pledged their support and much favourable comment is heard on the steps to be taken.
The Citizens’ Committee which was responsible for bringing in the petition, and which pledged itself, along with many other signees, to bring the vote to a successful conclusion, includes, F.L. Button, chairman; Frank Riches, H. Bannerman, A. McQuarrie, Rev. D. Davis, Joseph Borinsky, C.H. Bell, H. Spoofed, Jack Smits, and E.A. Button.

Lions may launch teen age hockey
A request has come from the Agincourt Lions Club to meet with various groups in the district in an effort to form a local hockey league for groups of boys fourteen and under and eighteen and under. The matter has been placed in the hand’s of the boys’ committee of the local Club, and it is expected that something will be done along the lines suggested by Agincourt.
Bunny Morgason of the Telegram, gave the Stouffville Lions a spot in his column on Tuesday night in speaking of their work in promoting teen-age sport. In his address at a recent baseball banquet he urged that the number of teams now sponsored be more than doubled in the coming season. LAND AND WEATHER PERFECT FOR LOCAL PLOWING MATCH

After plowing is done is the hot supper, and during the competition the lunch counter, which was no exception at the Stouffville match where it was conducted by the Stouffville Women’s Institute. The hot supper was served in the arena down in the park.
The War Branch are still working at the Municipal Hall, and we invite anyone who cares to come and help to complete the work which we have been doing for almost seven years. Mrs. Davey, sec., Bunny Morgason, sports writer on the Evening Telegram made a splendid address before the Lions Club here on Monday evening at the annual supper gathering held in the High School and catered by Altona Institute. Guests were the lads of town and district all members of the two baseball teams sponsored by the Club last summer. The Telegram writer urged on the boys the ideal of clean sport, the need for concentrated practice, and the great things such practice may lead to. Entertainers from Toronto supplied the lighter amusement in music and tricks that still have every eye-witness guessing. The climax was reached when the trick artist deliberately, before all eyes, hauled a wiggling live skunk out of the coat of Bob Snowball. President Chas. Nolan presided for the evening and Lion F.L. Button offered a toast to the boys which was responded to on their behalf by Lion Lou Murphy.
Markham Intermediate hockey club has taken to the ice a couple of times already this season, their latest workout at Oshawa on Saturday. Stouffville hopes to get on the same ice in the early part of November. It would appear that this winter will see a strong Intermediate league operating in the district with Markham. Newmarket and Birchcliff being starters. Stouffville and Whitby are the only two definite junior team in the vicinity so far.

JUNIOR HOCKEYISTS TO HIT ICE SOON
The management of the Stouffville Junior “C” hockey entry is endeavouring to arrange to have the boys limber up on Oshawa ice, starting in about two weeks. This would place the boys in good shape by the time the schedule should begin which is the first week in January.
Rumours are still flying thick and fast as to who will finally line up with so far as Markham, Richmond, Aurora, Stouffville, and Whitby are concerned. Efforts are being made to secure the services, of both Mac Clement of last year’s Richmond Hill “B” team, and Johnny Atkinson, defence star of Aurora Juvenile. Marlboro Juniors “B” team which was originally to use Richmond Hill ice, has pulled back into Toronto, but are dangling for Clement Pascoe, a star of last year’s Whitby championship team, who is understood to be ready to turn out with Stouffville. He’s now living in Claremont. Howard Forgie will also line-up with Stouffville.
Newmarket will decide this week whether its to be Junior “C”, Intermediate, Midget O.M.H.A. or all three. Markham is definitely icing an Intermediate “B” team, and a rumour here last week that “Jesse” James would also come, up there with a Junior entry cannot be confirmed.
An interesting sidelight regarding Stouffville’s equipment this year is a tryout of a new type hockey stick. The stick has a bakelite-coated blade and hickory handle, and is the newest thing on the market. They are also being tried out by the Markham Intermediate squad.

1945-46 JUNIOR HOCKEY TEAM RECEIVE WINDBREAKERS

LOCAL O.H.A. HOCKEY ENTRY IMPRESSIVE TURNOUT AT OSHAWA
Twenty-four hockey hopefuls including four goal-tenders skated out on the ice at the Oshawa Arena on Monday evening as Coach Bruce Harper gathered his boys for their first Junior ‘B’ practice. Most of the stars of last year’s team were back with the exception of “Kick” Paisley and George Rumney who have joined the over-age group, George Minton, Keith Jewett, Jack Rumney, Don Campbell, Gord Moore were all out skating their heads off along with a host of newcomers. “Hocus” Miller, one of the king-pins of this Year’s ball team was there along with Ken Schell and Lloyd Jennings.
Lloyd Pascoe, star of Whitby’s Junior championship team of the last year was out along with Johnny Atkinson, main defenceman of Aurora OMHA champions and Mac Clement member of Richmond Hill’s last year’s Junior ‘B’ team. With their experience, these three are almost sure to be starter of this season’s entry.
It is expected that a second practice will be arranged at Oshawa next week, and if favourable weather holds out the following week, we should see ice in the Stouffville Arena.
This season’s O.H.A. Junior entry has been registered by Dalton Rumney of Victoria Square, who will head the 1946-47 executive, members of which are as follows: President, Dalton Rumney; manager Robert Snowball; secretary/treasure, Bruce Clark; coach, Bruce Harper; directors, Garnet Francey, George Rumney, Blake Sanders, A.G. Thompson, Chas. Nolan.
What the league setup will be remains a question, but there would be a possibility of a seven-team loop, with Newmarket, Bradford, Aurora, Uxbridge, Port Perry and Whitby. Entries are understood to be in from all these centres.
Curlers Attention
An important meeting of the Stouffville Curling Club will be held at the rink this Friday night at 8 p.m. Reorganization — be sure and be there.
A four some of local curlers M.E. Watts, Chris Armstrong, Walter Brillinger and D. Hodgins were narrowly nosed out in the High Park bonspiel this week, losing out to Galt. The Stouffville curlers won their first two games from Barrie and Oshawa.

STOUFFVILLE MAY BE IN INTERMEDIATE HOCKEY
A group of local and district lads including a number of veterans are contemplating entering an intermediate hockey team in the Ontario Country League which will operate in Uxbridge this season. Entries are already in from Sunderland, Zephyr, Utica-Epsom, Eudora, Uxbridge, Reach, and Uxbridge Junior Farmers. All games will be played in Uxbridge. Efforts are also going to be made to support two teams for junior boys here this season in the bantam, midget or juvenile groups, and a meeting is expected to be called at Unionville sometime this month. LESS THAN ONE HUNDRED RATEPAYERS REGISTER VOTE AGAINST HALL QUESTION
Less than one hundred ratepayers turned out to vote against the question, “Are you in favour of an expenditure of $25,000 for a Community Hall in Stouffville” was given them on Monday at the polls.
Ninety-four ratepayers turned up to vote against the hall, and ninety-seven voted favourably, while over 200 didn’t go to the trouble to vote at all.
There was no organized effort to support the issue, the question having been submitted as a result of a request from over fifty business men, wanting a declaration on the question. Had there been organized support in favour of the hall many more voters could have been brought out. One man said next morning that he didn’t vote, because he was sure it would easily carry, which was a very unwise attitude to take.
However, it is one of those issues that you are considered in favour of if you do not vote against consequently it can fairly be said that the village is anxious to secure hall accommodation when the time is proper to build. One of the strange things about the vote was that all the opposition to a hall came from old-timers or residents of long standing, whereas newer residents indicated their anxiety to see the town progress. However, good feeling prevailed at all times during the taking of the vote.

LOCAL JUNIOR HOCKEYISTS GROUPED IN FOUR TEAM LOOP
Markham Pulls Surprise — Last Minute Entry — Expect to Get local Ice for Practicing Friday Night
The local Junior O.H.A. entry will be teamed up in a four-team circuit this season along with Bradford, Aurora and Markham. Markham pulled an eleven-hour entry into the O.H.A. engineered by Messrs. Bell, Lawson and Doug James of Aurora is picked to provide the toughest opposition for the home squad.. The schedule is expected to be drawn up next week, and play should begin by Jan. 1st. Stouffville arena will have ice available this weekend, if the cold weather holds out.
Uxbridge and Whitby, last year’s local rivals are in a group this season with Orono and Port Hope, while Port Perry will travel all the way to Lindsay, Haliburton, Omemee and Peterboro for their hockey
Intermediate hockey grouping in this district will be Sutton, Newmarket, Markham, Todmorden, Unionville. “Swifty” Todd, who would have been a valuable addition tot he Stouffville Junior team last year had it not been for a little matter of being two weeks over-age, is trying out with Sutton this season. He hails from Goodwood. OPENING FOR GOOD BUSH LEAGUE HERE
The Ontario-County bush-league hockey which will operate in Uxbridge this season is full, and Goodwood and Stouffville have been unable to enter teams in their circuit as they had expected to do. It is understand that representatives from both centres were told that the calibre of players they would have, would be much too good for the class of hockey in the Uxbridge league. Claremont is also understand to have a team on the loose, and with Markham rink being booked up with both junior and intermediate hockey, the South Ontario league teams may have difficulty getting time in Markham. Whitchurch league will not operate this season, we understand. Stouffville could well support a good bush league with such teams as those mentioned above along with others. It’s not too late yet to organize. HOCKEY INTEREST SORELY NEEDED
There’s a real opening for one or more energetic men in town or immediate vicinity to coach and manage the Bantam and Midget hockey aspirants at the Stouffville Arena. A meeting has been called for this Friday evening at the rink which means all the boys in there two age groups, 14 years and under and 16 years and under should be out along with some of the older men, whom it is hoped will lend a hand.
It’s an opportunity for someone to do a real piece of work among the younger boys of Stouffville and immediate district during the winter. The lads are rarin’ to go, and just need a little organization assistance necessary will be forthcoming from the Lions Club.
Stouffville has fallen down badly in this younger hockey department during the past years, with the result that there are few boys of O.H.A. calibre in town today. Besides, the lads want to play and need our co-operation.
LOCAL MEN OFFER TO PILOT MINOR HOCKEY HERE

LOCAL MEN OFFER TO PILOT MINOR HOCKEY HERE
A group of some seven or eight local men gathered at the arena on Friday night in an effort to organize some leadership for those boys who eligible for bantam and midget hockey. There was considerable discussion over the hockey doldrum into which the local lads had been allowed to slump. The recent was the appointment of Harold Lewis and Gar Lehman as managing coaches, and Wes. Boadway, secretary/treasurer. These three will handle bantam and midget outfits, and players in these age groups were called out on Monday night. While members of the Lion Club failed to appear in any strength to actively participate, the financial backing of the Club is expected, to whatever extent is necessary. It has been expected that two minor clubs from Stouffville would find opposition with a group comprised of Milliken but so far this combination has been snagged by the failure of Unionville and Markham rink managements to see their way clear to giving the small lads any rink time. This matter will be further threshed out this week.
Markham, we are told have asked as high as $275 from the youngsters for the use of the rink there.
The nearest Midget hockey clubs to Stouffville are, Bradford, Newmarket, Uxbridge, Oakville. Richmond Hill has entered a bantam Club, and entries for these minor ranks have not yet closed we understand, so that Stouffville might find a berth in some nearby OHMA circuit if the Markham, Unionville ice situation fails to clarity. WHITBY HERE MONDAY
Whitby Junior O.H.A. entry will play an exhibition game with the Stouffville Junior team in the local arena, Mon., Dec 30th. Puck will be faced at 8 p.m. This is your opportunity to get your holiday hockey preview. NEWMARKET ADDED TO JUNIOR O.H.A. HOCKEY CIRCUIT
Deliberations of Aurora Rink Management Delays Drawing Up o Junior Schedule
According to A.W. Lawton, Markham, convener of the local Junior ‘C’ hockey group, Newmarket has been added to this circuit. Newmarket it appears was declared to be ‘C’ calibre, but was originally scheduled to play in a ‘B’ group with a bye into the Junior ‘C’ playdowns. Newmarket appealed to the O.H.A. for the right to actively participate in the local group and this has been granted.
Arrangements to draw up the schedule which are overdue, were cancelled for one week when, according to the convener, Aurora was unable to get a decision on nights available in their rink. The schedule should certainly start next week, as the season is short for natural ice rinks, and a week now may save a lot of grief in March.
The local team under the guiding hand of Coach Ike Harper is rounding into shape with such players on the roster as Doug Moore, Jack Romney, Lloyd Jennings, Gord Lewis, Bill Mulholland, Earl Lehman, Lloyd Pascoe, Bill Mabbitt, Mac Clement, Gord Minton, Keith Jewett, Don Campbell, Ken Schell, Baker, Forgie, and a number of others. JUNIOR HOCKEY SCHEDULE OPENS HERE FRIDAY NIGHT
Newmarket to be Visiting Team on Opening — Markham Here Next Monday
Junior O.H.A. hockey opens in Stouffville this Friday night with Newmarket. the visiting team. The second home game will be Monday night with Markham providing the opposition.
There has been considerable speculation regarding the Markham entry, but sources close to the Markham management tell us Toronto and Scarboro talent was strictly in the majority when the team took the ice for the first time last weekend. Newmarket is likely to provide keen competition and their opening visit is expected to draw a bumper crowd.
The five teams in the league will play a single schedule with the four clubs finishing on top, going into the playoffs. This will be a best two-out-of-three affair between first and third, and second and fourth place teams. The final for the league championship will be also be a best two-out-of-three series. The winner must be declared by March 1st. Stouffville’s Victoria Square entry will play all their home games on Monday nights with the exception of the opener this Friday. WHITBY COMBINATION TOO MUCH FOR LOCALS IN HOCKEY EXHIBITION
Fists Fly Among Fans in Final period as Whitby Wins 8-2
Heady team play by Whitby’s Junior O.H.A. entry tumbled Stouffville by an 8-2 score before more than three hundred hockey hungry fans in the exhibition contest in the local arena on Monday night. The locals countered the first tally early in the game when Pascoe scored on a wild melee around the Whitby nets. Stouffville predominated the play during the early stages of period one, but faded as Whitby hit their stride and countered with three goals in the last ten minutes of the round.
Lintner and McCloskey looked extra good for the visitors while McEwan, one of the standouts of this Ontario championship squad, again presented a stumbling block to the local sharpshooters. Referee Chas. Webster handed out penalties early and often as the tempo of the game increased, and tempers and sticks rode high in the final period, breaking out in several minor skirmishes.
The home team’s second and final goal came off the stick of Keith Jewett, who along with Jack Rumney and Pascoe had close in shots blocked time and time again during the final twenty minutes.
Mac Clement, a newcomer to local hockey fans gave a leasing hockey display both offensively and defensively on the Stouffville defence.
A minor brawl ensued in the dying moments of the game when an over-zealous spectator took a shot at McEwan in the Whitby net with a bottle. Constable Rusnell was on the job, but failed to lay hand on the culprit whose unsportsmanlike act drew ire of both the home and visiting fans. It is understood that his name has been divulged to the police and any future visits to the arena will be closely watched by the limb of the law.

MARKHAM SNOWED UNDER IN JUNIOR HOCKEY FIXTURE
Visitors No Match for Speedsters — Pascoe Features with Five Goals
Markham Junior O.H.A. hockey ream was completely swamped in their game with Stouffville on Monday night by the count of 17-4. Stouffville was full value for their win through Markham featured in the play throughout more than the score indicates.
The game was delayed for some time halfway through the first period when Doug Moore local goalie received a nasty gash just above the forehead. He returned to the ice after first aid treatment, swathed in bandage, and continued for the remainder of the game.
The home club tallied three times in the first 10 minutes before Markham replied. Gord Minton, Forgie and Mac Clement did the shooting, while L. Petch, one of newspaper’s 1946 quad now on the Markham roster, scored for the visitors. Three more were added to the local total in the first twenty minutes to make it 6-1. Lloyd Pascoe who had the keenest shot of the night, scoring five of his club’s 17 goals, got his first counter at the 15 minute mark of the opening period, while the fifth and sixth goals were scored by Bill Mabbett and Ray Fox. The homesters rapped in another six in the mid-session and five in the final period. Markham replied with two in the second by Hocker and Procenko and one in the last period by “Torr” Hill. Stouffville’s second period counters were notched by Clement, Pascoe, Jewett and Rumney.
Bill Mabbett got his second goal of the game in the final round with Jewett, Minton, Pascoe and Forfar’s bringing the grand total to seventeen, Forfar’s goal was his initial start with the local team.
Four penalties were handed out by referee Palmer of Toronto, all them to Markham for minor offences.
Line-up Stouffville — Gord Lewis, Don Campbell, Ray Fox, Russ. Forfar, Mac Clement, Jack Rumney, Gord Minton, Keith Jewett, Lloyd Pascoe, Bill Mabbett, Howard Forgie, Lloyd Jennings, Doug Moore.

Stouffville 9 Newmarket 8
Stouffville Junior O.H.A. hockey entry came very close very close to blowing a four goal lead in their opening game against Newmarket on Friday night, eking out a 9-8 win. The hometowners went into the final period out in front by a 7-3 score. The home team started the game without a spare man on the bench, and hip injury to Gordon Lewis, defence stalwart halfway through the second period threw a big job onto the remaining defenceman who were only taken off the brief moments for a breather, the remainder of the game.
Defence man Don Campbell also received a cut lip, which required several a cut lip, which required several stitches, and the game was held up on another occasion when Doug Moore in the Stouffville net was hit by the puck.
The local team was most impressive in the opening period when they whipped home three goals on rapid succession without a reply from Newmarket. Keith Jewett, Jack Rumney and Gord Minton were the marksmen. Kent and Gibson were finally rewarded in scrambles around the Stouffville net getting two for Newmarket. Jewett added another for the home team to end the round 4-2. While the steady pressure of the Redmen began to tell on Stouffville in the mid session, the homesteads again managed to outscore the visitor 3-1. Lloyd Pascoe, Mac Clement and Don Campbell each tallied and Thomas scored one for Newmarket.
The last period saw Newmarket dominate the play, Broughton, Kent, Eves, Rutledge and Thomas collecting five goals. Stouffville hung on grimly and individual efforts by Clement and Pascoe kept visitors from ever clinching the tying goal. Pascoe’s goal came with just three Mounties to go.
L. Hefting defence star of last tear’s Whitby champions was the O.H.A. officials was the P.H.A. official. The game was cleanly fought and only two minor offences were penalized. Bill Mabbett and Gord Minton of Stouffville taking forced rest in the second and third periods.
Stouffville Intermediates who are campaigning as Udora in the Uxbridge league swamped Todmorden Intermediate ‘A’ team last week by a score of 14-3 in an exhibition game at Uxbridge. This is the local team which will be playing in the Stouffville arena on Thursday.
Mr. Clayt Baker has had a public address system installed in the arena, also operated to provide music on skating nights. The dwindling members of the Stouffville Band found it impossible to carry on another season after many years of faithful service, enjoyed by hundreds by hundreds of skaters from near and far, Stouffville Radio Electric is handling the new system.
The local Junior hockey executive is in receipt of a nice cash donation from a member of the Stouffville Main St. business fraternity who says that while his health won’t permit him to attend the games, he feels he wound like to help those who have spent much time and energy in the last two seasons to provide a winning hockey club in Stouffville. While the Club did receive a fine starting contribution to years ago from the Stouffville Lions, it has been a policy since, that Junior hockey must pay its way, and no financial assistance has been sought since. Thus the handful of men operating the team has persisting in trying to weld together a winning club. While it is fully realized that there is an obligation by some group or organization to organize minor hockey for strictly local minor hockey for strictly local talent, it also must be understood that this is not a paying proposition so far as providing public entertainment is concerned, but is a work to be met by charitable funds. Rates of admission have been brought on a par with surrounding arenas for O.H.A. hockey this year, a move that was imperative, owing to growing expenses. Just the one item of sticks alone, is a heavy one this season, a half dozen costing as much as $15.00.

STOUFFVILLE JUNIORS MAKE IT FOUR STRAIGHT WITH DOUBLE WIN OVER BRADFORD TEAM
Over five hundred hockey fans saw Stouffville team stretch on Monday night with over Bradford by a score of 12-6, the second over this team in a row. While the score did not fairly indicate the play, Stouffville spelled trouble for the Celery Kings every time they were allowed to get in close on the net, and both lines shared equality in the snipping.
Pascoe, Rumney, Minton and Jewett collected the four goals for the home crew in the opening stanza the one country being allowed, when a Bradford man threw his stick in an attempted save. Borman scored a one tally for the northerners.
Bradford dominated the play in the second period, but they failed to beat Moore in the local net, although they tossed rubber his way in a steady stream. Stouffville, while they were shoved into their own end for a considerable portion of the period, broke out in two and three-man rushes on a few occasions and scored four more shots from a fair distance out. Minton, Jewett, Lewis and Clement were the marksman who added to the total.
In the final period Fox for Stouffville scored one in his own net when he made a slap at the at the puck in an effort to clear. The home-team had a substantial lead however and the miscue was of no great consequence. However Fox took the matter quite seriously and assisted himself on the next scoring effort, this, time in the Bradford end. Four more tallies brought Stouffville bag up pt twelve, Mabbett, Lewis, Jewett, the scorers. The period was ragged at times with brilliant bursts of speed every so often. Kula, Griffon, Walker and Bowman notched four for Bradford, while Bowman northern defenseman was the pick of the visitors with this speed and stick handling Referee Walsh handed out eleven penalties, seven to Stouffville, and four to Bradford.
This win gives Stouffville a four point lead over their nearest rival Aurora. Aurora, however have two games in hand, and have yet to tangle with the league leaders.

League Leadership May Be at Stake in Monday’s Game
The highlights of the local O.H.A. hockey schedule to date will be the meeting of Stouffville and Aurora in the arena here next Monday night, Jan., 27th. The two teams will meet in the Yonge St. arena on Thursday night. If Aurora should win on Thursday, they would tie the local aggregation for the first place in the standings. Neither team has lost a game so far, but Aurora has played one less than Stouffville. Stouffville’s hockey rail who observed Aurora’s meeting with Markham a couple of weeks age, were not too much impressed, but since then, thee Yonge streeters are said to have drawn in some new strength from the direction of King, and are likely to provide a real battle for the championship.
Monday night’s scheduled game with Newmarket was postponed owing to soft ice. Any holding bus tickets for the game, may use them this Thursday for the trip to Aurora. There are still a few tickets available for this game.
An exhibition hockey match in Markham is mooted for early February as a benefit contribution for one of the Scott brothers, defenceman on the Markham Intermediate team, who was seriously injured in a recently game with Sutton. The game will bring together the Millionaires and Stouffville Juniors. CURLERS WIN EVERYTHING BUT PRIZES
A rink of Stouffville curlers met with signal success at the big bonspiel held in Midland last week, in which fifty rinks competed. M.E. Watts (s), Chris Armstrong, Walter Brillinger and Donald Hodgins held the grand aggregate for winning most of the games, six out of nine. Despite the winning streak the lads from Stouffville didn’t get in on a single prize. It was a case of winning everything but the prizes. They must have had a tough battle to fight. The bonspiel lasted three days.

Replay of Markham Game Quite Decisive
Stouffville Juniors romped home with an easy 11-2 victory over Markham in the replay of their first home game here. The outcome was never in doubt after the second period with the local favourites coasting along with an 8-1 lead. Pascoe countered the first for Stouffville at the 5 minute mark in the first period, followed by two more by Minton, Jewett setting up each play.
In the second period, Markham put on their best performance of the night and Petch, (late of the Stouffville club), came through with one of the visitors two goals. However, everything was clicking for Stouffville and they rattled in five more goals in this period, Jewett getting two, and Campbell, Minton, and Rumney each one.
Bill Mabbett notched a pair in the last period from Jennings and Pascoe to make it 10-1. Forgie fired home the visitors’ final tally followed by Lewis with No. 11 for Stouffville.
Penalties handed out by referee McEachren were few, two to Campbell of Stouffville, one to Forgie and Sellers of Markham
Doug Moore Injured
Goalie Doug Moore of the Red Wings received a serious injury in the second period when he took a high puck in the face. The plucky net minder was patched up and continued for the balance of the game, but it was found that five stitches were required to close the gash in the lad’s face. Sub goalie Jack Warriner was laid up with the mumps, and unable to be at the game.
Stouffville was also without the services of husky defenceman Mac Clement who is out with a knee injury, but will be back this week for the playoffs. The game eliminated Markham’s last hope for a playoff position. HOPE OF ADDED HOCKEY HELP FOR PLAYOFFS IS OUT
Hopes that Stouffville Junior O.H.A. entry might obtain added hockey strength for the playoffs, and particularly for the Ontario play-downs, should they be fortunate enough to win the group, faded last week. Final word after considerable negotiating, came from O.H.A. headquarters, refusing to allow H. Forgie to play outside Markham Village for the balance of the season. The only concession made to this player is that he will be permitted to go to the Markham Intermediates, if he can make a place on the team.
Herbie Rose of Richmond Hill, stalwart defenceman of the Scarboro Rangers was all set to play for the local club, and practiced here last week. However, when the time came for him to be released from Scarboro ‘B’ team, this club found they could not afford to relinquish his services, so he will remain Scarboro property for the balance of the season. Aurora was also said to be on the hunt for the services of Rose.
Doug Burkholder, who has been playing a bang-up game for the local High School, and the Midgets, joined the Junior O.H.A. ranks ten days ago, and shows promise of being a real comer. Doug, is no slouch on skates and can handle his husky frame quite effectively when the occasion demands. He saw his first real action against Markham here Thursday. LOCAL PUCKSTERS ENDED WHITBY’S WINNING STREAK
Playing one of their best games of the season on Saturday night, Stouffville Juniors spelled finish to Whitby’s sixteen game winning streak in the exhibition hockey match before some five hundred roaring fans. They held the visitors 7-7. Stouffville came from behind a 4-1 lead at the start of the second period o tie the score for the balance of the game. Lewis paced the home club with three goals to his credit.
Whitby opened the scoring early in the first period as Lintner went in on goal, after completing a three way passing play set up by McCloskey and Williams , to bang one past Moore in the Stouffville net.
This lead held good for more than half the period when Lewis wrapped one home from a scramble in front of the Whitby goal. Whitby came back in the last three minutes of play on solo rushes by Lintner and McCloskey.
During the first period feelings began to rise with the result the referee was called on to deal with the rule breakers. Low and Mabbett were given majors for fighting. Two other offenders were banished for minor offences.
Whitby increased their lead to 4-1 early in the second period as L. Quill bagged his first of two goals. Lewis netted his second tally for Stouffville on a pass from Pascoe. Mabbett added the second Stouffville tally of the frame as he came racing back a minute later to catch the Red Wings completely off guard. However Whitby were not to be outdone and L. Yuill sank his second goal on a pass from Gates.
Whitby were short-handed at the time. This was by no means a dull period as both teams were handling out stiff body checks with the result tempers were on edge throughout the entire game.
Whitby increased their lead again before the home club could get set up, but Stouffville club countered with no less than three goals before the Wings could get them under control. Pascoe scored the first marker with two Whitby man in the cooler. Rose came back for the Stouffville sextet and scored a neat goal on a pass from Minton to put them within one goal of the Whitby team. Whitby was trying hard to increase their lead and in doing so left Minton of the Stouffville squad unguarded with the result he snared a loose puck and beat McEwen for the tying goal.
Whitby came flying back five seconds later to again take the lead. It appeared as if one goal lead was going to hold good but inspired by a change of players the home sextet came fighting back to again tie the score.
The period and the game ended with the players group around the Whitby net trying to get the extra goal which would have spelled defeat for the first time this year for the Red Wings.
Stouffville was still short defenceman Clement who was on the injured list. ONTARIO PLOWMEN WIN TRIP TO BRITAIN

JUNIORS ELIMINATE BRADFORD IN CLOSE CONTEST, 4-3
Stouffville eliminated Bradford in their O.H.A. Junior hockey playoffs on Friday night, taking the second game by a score of 4-3 in a hard fought struggle. Stouffville was without right winger Lloyd Pascoe, who was down with the flu, but centreman, Gord Lewis was back in the lineup, and Lloyd Jennings, alternate, was moved up to bolster the player shortage.
It was a ding-dong battle all the way with neither team having more that a one goal lead at ant stage. Stouffville scored first at the six minute mark, Campbell from Jewett. Hanna got Th. equalizer for Bradford four minutes later, on a pass out from Coates. The one-one score indicated the play in the first period.
After just a minute and twenty seconds of the mid-period, Mac Clement rifles the puck into the Bradford net to put the Red Wings out in front. The visitors held the lead for about fifteen minutes when Collins finally tied it up on a passing effort with Coates. Just half a minute before the period ended, Sellers and Jewett worked in close from the corner to lift in Stouffville’s third goal.
The Celery Kings evened the count once more in the first three minutes of the third period. Bowman being the marksmen with Harvey and Wannamaker on the assists. Both teams missed a number of royal scoring chances as play sped from end to end. With just five minutes to go defenceman Don Campbell took a pass out from Minton and sank the winning counter. Bradford threw everything into the Stouffville end but the kitchen sink to close the gap once more, but Ike’s boys back-checked fiercely and managed to break up many a dangerous Bradford rush before it got over the blue-line.
There were a few penalties handed out by referee McEcheran, and all for minor offences. Campbell got two for Stouffville and Lewis one, while Boychoff was the only penalty for Bradford. The clean game was typical of all the clashes between these two teams this season, and the victors were warmly congratulated by the losers.
Player Breaks a Leg
An unfortunate accident occurred during the game when one of the Bradford players tripped in some manner and slid into the boards, snapping his leg just above the ankle. There were no other player near the lad when he fell, but the mishap put rather a damper on the balance of the game for both teams. Lloyd Jennings of Stouffville also suffered a leg injury and will be out for at least a week. JUNIORS READY FOR FINALS WITH AURORA
Aurora qualified to meet Stouffville in the finals for the O.H.A. Junior ‘C’ group championship by defeating Newmarket 7-1 on Monday night.

TROUNCE AURORA HANDILY IN FIRST GAME OF PLAYOFFS
Stouffville 10 Aurora 6
Stouffville won the “big half” of the championship hockey series, just completed when they trimmed Aurora in the first game, 10-6.
Gord Lewis proved to be the big gun for the locals, scoring goals eight, nine and ten for his team. Keith Jewett, Gord Minton and Bill Mabbett were right on his heels with two each, while Mac Clement started the boys off with the first counter. Mundell and Wilkinson scored two each for Aurora, with McGhee and Simmons getting one each. The first period need 3-1 for Stouffville. Penalties proved costly in the second period, as with Campbell in the cooler, followed by Jewett, Aurora tied the count, and looked for a time as if they were well on their way for more. However, Moore held them off and at full strength again Stouffville countered four times before Aurora could reply and the period ended 7-4.
In the last round, Mundell had cut Stouffville led to 7-5, when Lewis started his barrage. Lloyd Pascoe who had been flying all night, but just couldn’t get a bead on the net, set Lewis up for goal number eight and Jack Rumney passed out for Lewis’ ninth counter. Wilkinson beat Moore from the corner with just five minutes left, but Aurora’s luck was gone, and Lewis completed the hat trick at 17.00, unassisted flipping in the rebound from his own shot. Pascoe drew a minor penalty in the last period, but no damage resulted. Patrick and Andrews were the only two offenders for Aurora. Jack McEcheran was the O.H.A. official. THOUSAND FANS JAM ARENA AS RED WINGS TALE 6-5 WIN ELIMINATING AURORA
Battling down to the last second, Stouffville emerged O.H.A. group champions on Saturday night, when they downed Aurora 6-5 before a thousand fans in the local arena. It was the second game of a best two out of three for the Junior ‘C’ group title. Aurora with their backs to the wall, gave everything they had, and the game was in doubt right until the final bell.
Brodie started Aurora on their way in the first 45 seconds when his shot caromed off a Stouffville player into the net. Play see-sawed back and forth with both teams gumming up royal scoring chances. Jewett finally equalled the count at the 10 minute mark, after a half a minute sustained attack. Mac Clement put Stouffville in front at 17.00 going through alone, to beat Smith cleanly. Less than two minutes later Atkinson took a pass out from the corner at the Stouffville blue line to fire a screened shot past Moore. Penalties to Pascoe and Doolittle were killed off successfully.
The passing plays in the second period were a sight to see, both teams playing wide open hockey and charging up and down the ice in tireless two and three man rushes. At the 5-minute mark, Pascoe put the home club on top again. The score remained 3-2 until 19.41 of the period when Lewis scored one from Clement to make it 4-2. Campbell was given a two-minute rest in the sin-bin for Stouffville, while Atkinson and McGhee were also banished for Aurora. Each team held on during the shortage.
Aurora came back hard in the third period getting back in the game, in just 6 mins. on goals by Mundell and Davis. With the score tied 4-all, Minton went to the cooler for high sticking and Stouffville supporters held their breath, as the Red Wings checked fiercely to keep the rubber out of their own end. Minton himself had drawn the crowd’s applause when he put on a tricky stick-handling display to kill off Campbell’s penalty.
The break came at 9-50, Bill Mabbett flipping in Clement’s pass to make it 5-4. Just two minutes later Minton gave the Red Wings a two goal advantage again, scoring on assists by Jewett and Clement.
Aurora continued to threaten and continually bottled Stouffville up but the homesters always managed to finally break out and give goalie Smith a few anxious moments. Lloyd Pascoe put on a one-man show which brought the crowd to its feet as the speedy right-winger circled the Aurora net twice before trying a pass. At the 14-minute mark, Simmons, Aurora’s ace scorer who had been denied all evening broke in the clear at centre ice and coasted in alone on Moore to tighten the count to 6-5.
In “Foster” Farr’s own words over the P.A. system, “the suspense was killing” in the last six minutes. Gord Lewis suffered a twisted knee as he went heavily into the boards, but after a few minutes rest was able to continue. An Aurora player fainted on the bench and play was halted briefly. Stouffville held on doggedly to their slim margin to the final bell, while Aurora shot the puck continually into the Stouffville zone. McGhee drew the only penalty for Aurora in the last period for interference.
Lloyd Pascoe suffered facial and leg injuries in the last period which later required several stitches.
The win brought the first O.H.A. group championship to Stouffville in the last forty years.
Stouffville: goal, Moore; def., Rumney, Campbell, Clement; Lines, Pascoe, Jewett, Mabbett; Minton, Jewett, Sellers; alternates, Jennings, Burkholder; sub goal, Jack Warriner. THE NEED FOR AN ARTIFICIAL RINK IN STOUFFVILLE
(by Grant Drewery, grade X1.)
The village of Stouffville is a thriving town, that is, one of the best trading centres in Ontario. It has one of the best weekly newspapers for town of its size, either in Ontario or Quebec. But Stouffville has need of better skating facilities.
The present natural ice is in good condition. But, during the recent January thaw hockey games has to be postponed, skating was cancelled, all because of inadequate ice facilities. In artificial ice arenas, ice is available for both sport, and pleasure from early fall until late spring. The cost of a new arena with facilities to make artificial ice would be considerable. But an artificial ice rink in Stouffville would draw hockey matches and skaters from over a large district, from a large enough district to make the arena a profitable business bad pay for itself in a short time. The nearest artificial rinks are in Oshawa and Toronto, approximately an equal distance from Stouffville (about thirty miles). And these rinks are booked to capacity at all times, so a rink in Stouffville would help relieve the Ontario Hockey Association of some of its springtime worries, when teams have played on natural ice surfaces all winter, have to play on artificial ice during playoffs.

LOCAL JUNIORS WIN FIRST OF PLAYOFFS FROM OAKVILLE
Stouffville Juniors gained the first round of the ladder towards the Ontario Junior ‘C’ hockey championship, as they administered the first defeat this season suffered by Oakville by a score of 8-7 in the Grimsby Arena on Friday night, taking the first round 12-11. The first game in Stouffville on Wednesday ended in a 4-4 tie.
Oakville took an early lead in the second game, Davison getting the first of his four goals at the five-minute mark of the first period. As in the first game this was the only time that Oakville headed the local boys. Pascoe slapped in the tying counter at 10.05 of the period, followed by two more by Bill Mabbett and Bun Sellers at three minute intervals. Just before the bell ended the first period Currie got loose in front of the Stouffville net to score Oakville’s second goal.
In the second period Stouffville turned in e of the prettiest displays of speed and combination one could wish for in Junior hockey. Both forward lines broke up and down the ice in a way that had Oakville baffled. Sellers scored his second goal after four minutes of play, taking a pass from Jewett. Davison added one for Oakville to make it4-3. At the eleven-minute mark, Campbell made a golf shot from just inside the blue line, which went between Kemp’s legs in the Oakville net. Mac Clement made it 6-3 at 15.06, as he drilled one home from ten feet out.
Oakville started to throw their weight around in the last period and kept their first line of Galbraith, Cameron and Currie continually on the ice. The sudden onslaught pressed the Red Wings into their own end and at 2.00 and 2.33 Davison and Currie notched two from close range. A long shot at the five-minute mark was partly deflected by the defence, then struck Doug Moore on the inside of the glove and trickled into the net to even the count 6-all. Just two minutes later, Gord Minton, who had been repeatedly denied on wide-open chances clicked on Jewett’s pass, to make it 7-6. Oakville fought back and Davison and Galbraith combined to even the count again 7-7.
Time was running out, and then next goal looked like the clincher. Doug Moore who had played a stellar role in the series, made one spectacular save after another. At 17.05 Minton got a perfect pas from Keith Jewett and in a flick of an eye the game was won. Stouffville clung grimly ti their narrow margin for the remaining three minutes. With a minute and thirty seconds remaining Oakville got a face off opposite the Stouffville net and as the pass came in front of the local goal an Oakville player standing in the goal crease drove Moore back into the net. The face off was called back by Referee Towns. Cries of “robbers” and “protest” went unheeded and the face off was made.
For Oakville that close chance was the finish, and the Red Wings carried the play into the other end and kept it there for the remaining seconds.
The game was cleanly played with only three penalties to each side, Lewis, Sellers and Campbell getting the nod for the locals, and Leslie, Currie and Galbraith for Oakville. Three goals were scored while these offences were being served.
Davison, who is playing his last year in Junior hockey was outstanding for Oakville scoring four goals, all of them set up by Galbraith. These two were top men on their team.
Stouffville honour were evenly shared by every man on the lineup. The Red Wings deserved to win on the play by at least a goal or two. The officials were Bill Towns and Ed. Danes, both of Hamilton.
Stouffville 4 Oakville 4
The opening game of the series played here on Wednesday before nearly 900 fans, saw the Red Wings leading with less than a minute to go, when Galbraith broke loose in front of Moore to net the tying goal.
Currie notched the opening for Oakville at the two minute mark of the first period. Lewis combined with Pascoe to tie the count ten minutes alter, while Bill Mabbett gave the home team the lead at 17.08.
Each team added one in the second period, Minton scoring for Stouffville and Cameron for Oakville, Davison evened the count in period three.
The Red Wings predominated the play in the last period and Lewis got his second goal to give his club the lead again. There were just seconds left to play when the visitors tied the game..
Stouffville were slow starters and Moore held off the Oakville squad in great style in the opening ten minutes of play.
Davison, Galbraith and Patterson collected four minor penalties for Oakville while Clement and Campbell sat out two minutes each for Stouffville. There was considerable dissatisfaction voiced by the fans and Stouffville management over the handling of the game by Messrs. Walsh and Palmer and the officials were changed for the second game.
Dad Made Gift To Entire Line-Up
The lads of the Stouffville Junior O.H.A. hockey team were more than delighted with the tangible manner in which Len Clement of Richmond Hill treated them after their gallant victory over Oakville. The ardent follower of the team presented each boy with $5, a complete surprise highly treasured. Mr. Clement is the father of Mac Clement, defenceman on the lineup.

LOCALS ELIMINATE GANANOQUE AFTER BLOWING A SIX GOAL LEAD IN O.H.A. PLAYDOWNS
With a crowd of some eight hundred hockey fans nearly in tears, Stouffville Juniors eked out a 13-12 win on the round with Gananoque, in the Oshawa arena on Monday night, in a O.H.A. playdown contest. The locals took the first game in Kingston in Saturday night, by apparently substantial margin of 11-5, only to Gananoque run away with the second game 7-2. Keith Jewett came up with the winning tally for the home after six minutes and twenty seconds of the last period. Gananoque came very close in the remaining minutes, to even the count once again. Keyes going right in alone on one occasion to be outguessed by Doug Moore. With a minute left to plat the easterners took their goalie out of the net and sent six forwards ganging into the Stouffville zone. A long shot with seconds remaining missed the corner of the net by inches.
The substantial lead which the local boys had brought with them with an apparent feeling of security, and Gananoque with their backs to the wall fought desperately to whittle down the lead. The Stouffville team was badly disorganized and saw their margin narrowed to three goals in the first seven minutes of pay. Coupled with this was the fact that Mac Clement, stalwart defenceman of the home crew did not arrive until the period was nearly up, owing to the extremely hazardous weather conditions.
Atkins from Keyes tallied the first Gananoque score at the one minute mark, while Jackson took a pass from Compeau a minute later to make Ir. 2-0. At 4.07, Bird sank the visitors third counter, and their fourth at 7.09. Gord Minton finally clicked for Stouffville at the 12 minute mark, after several close calls around the Gananoque net, This ended the scoring for the first period.
The second frame saw the visitors turning on the heat again, with the home team showing little of the classy form thy displayed in Kingston, when they ran away with the game in the second period. Jackson and Hudson added three more tallies to make it 7-1.
Gananoque showed signs of tiring in the last period while the local lads began to display a little of their regular form and managed to hold the visitors scoreless. Jewett’s goal being the only one of the period. Jack Rumney drew a misconduct penalty from Referee Morrison and a two minute tripping penalty, although Rumney’s move may have saved a goal, as Keyes was sailing in the clear. Keyes drew the only penalty of the game, while Lewis and Clement sat out two minutes each for Stouffville.
Stouffville 11 Gananoque 5
Stouffville won the first game played in Kingston quite handily by a score of 11-5. It was a complete reverse of Monday’s encounter, as the locals swarmed all over their eastern hosts on Saturday and showed more speed and class throughout the entire game.
Mac Clement scored the opening counter at 1.39 on a pass from Bun Sellers. Pascoe notched the second from Lewis at 5.05 while Clement rifled his shot home just a minute later. Gananoque were set back on their heels by this opening blast, but recovered a little as the period progressed and Compeau scored from Atkins at 10.24.
Stouffville continued to pour it on in the second period, and added four more goals to make it 7-1. This was the identical score in the second game only the situation was reversed. Lewis accounted for two, Pascoe and Mabbett getting the assists while Mabbett collected one with Lewis and Pascoe on the assists, and Minton added the other from Jewett.
Gananoque put on their best display in the final period scoring four, Hudson, Dickson, Keyes, and Atkins. However Stouffville matched them goal for goal, Pascoe getting the second and third goals of the night , and Jewett getting two.
The game was cleanly played only four minor penalties being handed out, Sellers getting two trips to the cooler, Rumney one, and Munden one for Gananoque. George Watts and J. Jackson of Kingston were the officials. JUNIOR RACE NARROWING DOWN
The number of teams left in the hunt for the Ontario Junior ‘C’ hockey honours has narrowed considerably, and at present we have the names of just four in addition to Stouffville. They are New Hamburg, Goderich, Orangeville and Hespeler. These latter two will finish their round in the Waterloo arena this Wednesday. At press time, the Stouffville club was still waiting word concerning the next possible round. Oshawa ice will not be available to the home team until next week, but a home game could be played here if the weather continues as at present.

BUSY BASEBALL SEASON PLANNED
Even though hockey has not yet folded for the season, already there is baseball chatter to be heard, and Stouffville will be represented almost definitely by three teams this year, a Junior O.B.A. entry, and a Midget and Bantam squad.
The local Lions Club are expected to be backing this summer’s baseball in a big way, and the new executive to handle this work has been placed in office. They are Manager, Reg Button: Coach, Ted Edwards; Sec.-Treas., Norm Baker; Equipment, Norm Farr; Transportation and grounds, Don Lewis and Lou Murphy. This group will be definitely give their time in handling the two minor groups, but whether or not the O.B.A. entry will be handled independent of the Lions Club, is not yet definite.
At the close of baseball season last year, it was mooted that the 1947 season would see Stouffville back in the running with an Intermediate team, and this may yet materialize, but there is nothing brewing along this line at the moment, so far as we can learn. Extensive plans are being made for improvement to the ball grounds, and a bumper baseball summer looks likely.
While the definite date is not yet known for the Junior Hockey finals, we have been asked to post the fans that there will be a bus going to both games. Stouffville’s home game will be in Oshawa, but where the winner of the Orangeville-Goderich series will tak…

The teams battled tooth and nail right down till the final bell in regulation time, and with only a minute left Goderich scored their fourth goal of the game, to put them out in front for the first time in the night. It looked like curtains for the Red Wings, but with only 45 seconds to play, coach Harper pulled goalie Moore out of the net and sent on six forwards. Lloyd Pascoe, the forward sent out to replace Moore finally got the equalizer with only 15 seconds to go, to knot the score at 4-all. Pascoe banged home the rebound from Minton’s shot.
While every member of the Stouffville squad gave everything he had, goalie Doug Moore, 15-year-old net minder played little short of sensational hockey, and gave one of the best performances seen on any ice this winter.
Goderich 6, Stouffville 3
Despite the fact that the teams played one of their best games of the season, Stouffville dropped the first game of the final O.H.A. Junior ‘C’ finals to Goderich in Stratford Arena on Saturday Arena on Saturday by the score of 6-3. Playing in water for two period, the local lads tired under the heavy going. Added to this was the fact that Goderich played three forward lines and four defenceman against Stouffville two lines and three defenceman.
Doug Moore in the Red Wings net was little short of sensational, and received rounds of applause from the 2500 fans in attendance. The homebrews displayed a distinct margin of play in the first period, setting up pattern passing which looked awfully good, and paid off with three counters to one for Goderich.
The Stouffville cause was dealt a definite blow in the first minute of play when Gord Lewis, husky pivot man took a high stick in the face, breaking his front teeth, and requiring several stitches in the mouth. He returned to the ice in the second period, but showed the effects of the nasty injury for the remainder of the game.
Don Campbell came through with the first goal of the game at 2.31 of he period, a screened shot which he rifled from the blue line, as Stouffville pressed Goderich into their own end. Mero went to the bench for a trip and Jack Rumney slapped in a pass out from Bill Mabbett at 8.44, one of the nicest scoring plays of the game. Hayter, who scored two for Goderich, got his first goal at the 14 minute mark to make it 2-1, but the locals continued to carry the play, laying rink-wide forward passes with deadly accuracy, and two minutes remaining Mabbett scored with Gord Minton on the assist to end the period 3-1.
There is a terrible thickness of ice in the Stratford Arena, and the management claims that the equipment is unable to withstand the summer heat created by the crowd. Consequently considerable water was in evidence on the ice in the final two periods.
Don Campbell drew Stouffville’s only penalty after just six minutes of play in the second period, and with the local boys shorthanded, Mero cut in close to score on Moore. Goderich continued to gang the Red Wings, and a minute later Mac Clement broke in the clear, and went in alone to be outguessed by Ginn. Allan scored on MacDonald’s pass at 11.13 to tie the count, and with less than a minute to go, B.J. MacDonald scored again to put Goderich out in front in the game for the first time 4-3.
Mac Donald scored his second goal after six minutes of the final period, on a pass from Allan. With the score 5-3, Stouffville was awarded a penalty shot, as MacDonald grabbed the puck in his own goal crease, Gord lewis was elected to take the shot, as he’s noted for his tricky flip shots around the net. However it wasn’t his night, and Ginn blocked his effort. Since no goal was scored MacDonald went to the bench to serve two minutes. Stouffville kept the play continually in the Goderich end while they were shorthanded, and Lloyd Pascoe missed a royal chance as his shot hit the goal keeper and bounced on the top of the net. Hayter put the game in the bag at 16:28 scoring on a breakaway, Doug setting him in the clear. REPRESENT STOUFFVILLE ON ALL-STAR LINEUP
Gordon “Polly” Minton will represent Stouffville and the Red Wings hockey team, junior finalists, at the Ontario east-west all-star game to be played at Maple Leaf Gardens this Friday night. The O.H.A. is playing the “shot” for the players and the games, and the proceeds will go to two welfare funds. The team for which Gordon will try will coached by Frank Buckland of Peterboro, and managed by “Bucko” McDonald of Sundridge. The opposing west squad will be handled by Roxborough of Simcoe and Normie Himes of Galt.
“Polly” Minton is just 17 years of age, and has been flying down his wing position all season. He is nice stick-handler and a sure bet when it comes to killing off penalties. “Polly” is fast and should catch the eye of one of the talent scouts who will be on hand Friday night, particularly since his age gives him several more seasons in Junior company. Minton has played two years for Stouffville and previous to that was on the winning team of the King Clancy trophy in 1943-33, along with Mac Clement, and Keith Jewett, two other members of this Year’s Stouffville squad. HOCKEY GAME BROADCAST
The Stouffville-Goderich Junior hockey final was carried on the air on Tuesday night, Torry Gregg giving a play by play report over CKNX, while CKDO, Oshawa, carried period summaries given by Norman Farr and Charles Nolan. PLOWMEN TRIP WELL PLANNED
Our entire trip was well planned from start to finish and all of us are grateful to the sponsors, the Salada Tea Company of Canada Ltd. and Imperial Oil Ltd. Their representatives to officials of Canada House, Ontario House, and the Canadian National Railways, who took such pains to arrange our travels.
We have returned tankful we have in Canada such a land of plenty. Our big disappointment, due to severe weather, was the lack of plowing in Britain, but we shall always remember the courage, steadfastness, and warm hospitality of the British people, and their kindness to us as we visited their cities, their farms, and their homes. The trip was well worth while and we’ll never forget our experiences. CURLERS TO IMPROVE PREMISES

According to the Newmarket Era, Stouffville will need to look very sharp if they expect to round up a team that can compete in Junior O.H.A. hockey another season, since Richmond Hill, according to this paper, is preparing to lay hold on everything that is left of the local team which is considerable, with some additions from the Aurora squad. Pascoe and Rumney awe the only two players on the Stouffville roster who must join the overage group. Richmond Hill have previously brought in players from as far away as Port Credit, and are apparently preparing to go afield again to ice a winning team.
Stouffville Junior O.H.A. ‘C’ Finalists 1946-47
Not in many, many years has such enthusiasm been evidenced in Stouffville as was the case this season, when the local O.H.A. entry continued right through to the Ontario finals before being nosed out. The men who operated the team gave considerable of their time and effort to round up a winning team in this locality and bring some real hockey entertainment to the local arena, and thy are to be congratulated on what was accomplished. The Red Wings gave a most credible showing on the entire season. They played a total of nineteen league games, including six Ontario playdowns, and won fourteen, Losing only five. The team scored a total of 133 goals in the nineteen games plays, for an average of seven a game. MADE A FINE SHOWING IN ALL-STAR
Gordon “Polly” Minton of the Stouffville Junior O.H.A. finalists in the Gardens on Friday night, made a nice showing in the all-star game staged by the O.H.A. in the Gardens on Friday night. Minton collected not only a goal, but also a couple of assists. He was in the starting line-up, centering on the line with Todd Lintner of Whitby on one wing and Johnny Atkins of Gananoque on the other. Boychoff of Bradford and Davison of Oakville were on the defence for the team which scored a 10-1 victory over the West stars.
The boys wee paraded on the big Gardens ice and each introduction were given a round of applause. Handsome sweaters were provided bearing the words, “O.H.A. Junior ‘C’ All-Stars, East 1946-47,” and stars on the shoulders.

A large number of sports-minded citizens have just completed the organizing of an Athletic Club, which will operate a Junior O.B.A. ball team here this year. The Lions Club are handling the two minor ball teams for the younger lads. Sport received a real “shot in the arm” in Stouffville this winter by having a winning hockey team, and many are determined that the town shall not lack for organized sport again as it did in the seven years before 1946. The immediate interest of the newly formed organization is baseball, but it is possible that their activities may be carried on right through the entire year.
Business and others are being approached to support the enterprise financially, and we understand they are responding well.
The officers elected are as follows Hon pres., Dr. S.S. Ball; pres. Donald Lewis; manager-coach, George Smith, sec.-treas., Irvin Borinsky; publicity director, Everton Smith; grounds committee, Elgin Wagg, Del. Jennings, Henry Ogden; coaching assistants, Geo. Morden, Jack Barkey, Wally Nicholson, Joe Oulette; general committee, Truman Baxter, Fred Timbers, Bruce Winterstein, Mr. Campbell, Chas. Ward, Elmer Daniels.

Stouffville Lions Club and their guests, the Junior O.H.A. hockey boys and the minor layers, were honoured on Monday evening at a “Hockey Night” banquet with the presence of Gus Mortson and Jimmy Thompson, dynamic young defence team of the Toronto Maple Leafs winners on Saturday night of the Stanley Cup, emblematic of world supremacy. The two star guests were introduced of world supremacy. The two star guests were introduced by Lion Ted Edwards. These two handsome specimens of young manhood, the one twenty and the other, twenty-two years of age, were a thrill and an inspiration of their experience on the cup winning Leaf team, and theatric routine of training. The pair were bombarded during the entire by requests from the younger lads present for autographs, and they willingly responded. Most noteworthy during the question period was their emphatic denial of any inclination on the part of players in the N.H.L. to lay down during a game.
“I have never gone into an N.H.L. game or Junior ‘A’ game, or have known any players going into such a game, but who were out to win,” said defenceman Thompson. Lion Don. Chadwick moved a hearty vote of thanks to the stars, and the crowd of some one hundred cheered and applauded loudly as they left the head table. Lion F.L. Button proposed a toast to the young hockey guests of the three local teams, and Dalton Romney, president of the O.H.A. team responded.
Entertainment during the evening included the lAka_Seltzer program, “Did I Say That” and two Toronto black face comedians Alcock and Hobson. MAY 1 IS THE OPENING DATE FOR ONTARIO’S TROUT
May 1 is the date set for the opening of the season for speckled trout, brown trout, rainbow trout and Aurora trout, Hon. Harold Scott, minister of lands and forests, announced. The season will close Sept. 15. The limit for speckled trout will be 20 ore day, or a 10-pound maximum catch. Limit for other species is five per day. Last year the season opened April 19. LOCAL ATHLETIC CLUB HAVE AMBITIOUS SPORT PROGRAM
Stouffville‘s newly organized Athletic Club is letting no grass grow under its feet before getting down pt business. At a meeting on Friday night, plans were discussed for the operating of a girls’ softball team here this year. If no teams are available for competition in the surrounding communities it is planned to have two or more reams here in town. Harold Lewis and Bruce Winterstein will be in charge of this branch of the activities and their equipment is already in hand. All girls interested should state their desire to play to one of these two men.
It was further stressed that the organization is to be permanent with a view of carrying on sports all year for both girls and boys. Several hundred dollars have been subscribed to start the organization off, and further donations are expected. While the Lions Club will this summer handle the bantam and midget ball teams under Manager Reg. Button, their financial support is expected for the Athletic Club as well.
The chief topic has been O.B.A. baseball and girls’ baseball, but steps are going to be taken to provide tennis and possibly rolling skating as well. A meeting of the Club was called for the park on Monday evening, when members Truman Baxter and Henry Ogden looked over the local tennis situation.
The club ground committee along with L.C. Murphy who heads this section of the Lions baseball executive checked up on the needs of the baseball grounds, and laid plans to builds a new backstop, something which has been needed for some time.
Word has been received that the new baseball uniforms will be ready shortly, and practice will begin in earnest the moment the ground is sufficiently dry. No definite word can be given as to what league the home team will participate in, but a line-up of Aurora, Newmarket, Barrie and Stouffville is mooted.
The Bantams and the Midgets will enter the Lions league as in former years, with such centres as Markham, Aurora, Newmarket, and possible Agincourt. UNIONVILLE TO MAKE A BID FOR JUNIOR HOCKEY
According to the Markham Economist, Unionville is making an early bid to get into the Junior Hockey picture for next winter, with Cy Allen, Wm. Bradley and Ernie Appleton of that village being the main cogs in the organization. Most of this year’s Stouffville players, will, through residence rules be on the Unionville rosters it is expected, and with a few imports the southern village will be able to ice quite a strong team. The Economist goes on to say that there are rumours in the southern municipalities that an Intermediate team might be iced in Stouffville, come next winter.

The baseball picture really rounded into shape this week with the final decision on the groups to be operated in this district. Stouffville will play in the Junior O.B.A. along with Aurora and Newmarket. The first home game for the Stouffville AC’s will be against Newmarket on May 28th. In addition a Midget and Bantam group is to be operated. Four teams in each, Stouffville, Aurora, Richmond Hill and Markham. L.C. Murphy, Ted Edwards, Jack Barkey and Don Lewis are handling these two minor groups.
There’s some real enthusiasm being shown in the interest over a revival of girls’ baseball here. Next Monday night, May 12th, the Stouffville AC’s are calling for the girls to turn out at the park to practice for both baseball and softball. Two teams are planned for baseball, and one team for softball. The snowballers can be any age six to sixty while in the girls’ Midget baseball the age eligible is under 17 years May 1st, and in the girls Bantam baseball, the age eligible is under 15, May 1st.
Following a meeting last week between the Lions Club ball committee and Don Lewis, president of the Stouffville Athletic Association it was agreed that the entire sports program for the town would be better under one head, and the reins were passed over to the newly formed commission. Those members of the Lions Club who composed the baseball executive agreed that they would willingly assist the town commission in any way they could, and the Lions Club as a whole is expected to be a strong financial backer for the new ports promoters.
Wes. Boadway, who acted as secretary of the minor hockey lads this winter just past tells us that he has winter just past tells us that he has filled out Ontario Association forms stating Stouffville would be interested in O.M.H.A. if a group could be arranged next year near enough for convenient traveling. SPORTS DAY HERE ON MAY 24TH
The 24th of May is to be marked in Stouffville by the full afternoon of sports in the Town Park beginning with a Junior hardball game, Aurora vs Stouffville at 2 o’clock. This will be a preview of two of the year’s O.B.A. Junior teams. At 4 o’clock there will be a ladies softball and bantam and midget hardball. The Stouffville Athletic Club has also arranged to have children’s’ races with prizes for everyone.
The Stouffville Athletics Athletic Club plans to renovate the tennis court but there will not be any club formed. Public School children will be allowed free use of the courts, while older players will be expected to contribute.
There were over forty girls turned out for the initial software softball practice in the park on Monday night and enough signed up for three teams. The diamonds were fairly alive with baseball aspirants, and members of the Athletics Club in charge of the boys minor ball had more than their quota of players for the Bantam and Midget.
The enthusiastic revival of baseball in Stouffville in the last couple of seasons causes port fans to reflect on some of the great teams which have carried the Stouffville colours in years gone by. Remember the stars of 1924, finalist in the O.B.A. Intermediate series. Oakville were the winners of that season’s championship. The team was piloted by the late Bill Mather and Dr. Walt. Sangster, and the lineup was as follows: Red Forsyth 3b; Wes Boadway ss., Dr. N.J. Dales 2b, Howard Underhill 1b; Lefty Lennox p; Max Reesor c; Bruce L M. Glendenning rf.; Lehman p; Murray Glendenning rf.; Milt Storey cf; Paul Boadway c; Fred Thompson, Allan Collard, Jim Muston, Fred Fawcett utility.
Officers of this year’s North York minor and are as follows: Pres. Simmons (Aurora): sec.-treas., Bill Holloway (Aurora): executive, Grant Nighswander (Richmond Hill) Doug. James (Markham), George Smith (Stouffville), Bill Haskett and George Haskett (Newmarket) in the Bantam series, Richmond Hill will represent the league at the end os the schedule in the O.B.A. with the right to draw the best bantam players from the other teams. Both Newmarket and Markham will enter cuter the O.B.A. midget playdowns. The league would also welcome an entry from Bradford. PRE-SCHEDULE TILT WITH AURORA PROVIDES GOOD SHOW FOR HOLIDAY CROWD
Stouffville Juniors took the field against Aurora on the holiday afternoon for a pre-schedule exhibition ball game, and although they dropped the decision 3-2, the boys came up with a sparking bit of baseball considering that practices have ha to be cut due to wet grounds.
Both teams trotted out on the field in new uniforms before three to four hundred fans. Stouffville presented much fans. Stouffville presented much of the play-offs last season. The Schell brothers, Lorne and Ken supplied the starting battery, with Miller at first, Sellers at second, Keith Jewett at third, Procenko at short, with Don Campbell, Louis Raxtin and Wilson in the field positions, Lloyd Jennings, Bill Nicholson were injected into the outfield lineup in the sixth innings. The team was without the service of shortstop “Polly” Minton, who comes up from the minor group this season. “Polly” is highly rated as an infielder and led the North York Midgets at the bat last year. He is expected to be on deck for the league opener this afternoon (Wednesday) against Newmarket.
Aurora also presented many of last year’s faces with the addition of hefty Mac Clement of Stouffville hockey fame, doing the catching chores, Stunden was at first, Doolittle at second, Fred Smith at the third and Nigh shortage: Kyle Neil and MsGhee were in the field and Simmons on the mound.
Both teams went scoreless until the top half of the third innings when hits by Stunden, McGhee and Simmons coupled with an error to bring to replace Lorne Schell in the 4th innings. Stouffville pushed across a run in the fifth but left two men stranded on bases when Jewett popped to first for the third out. The locals added another in the seventh. Miller clouted the “hit of the game” away out to the right field fence, and Campbell beat out a roller down the first baseline. Sellers dropped a hit over short to score one run, but Miller was out at the plate trying to come in all the way from second base. This ended the scoring for both teams.
Stouffville dropped the twilight game the same night in Aurora 4-3. All the three local hurlers, Rouse Sphiliman and Schell saw action in this second game, and Schell had the Yonge streeters buffaloed until the ninth innings when they pushed over the tie-breaking run.
Ted Edwards Midgets and Bantams switched batteries for an exhibition game following the main Junior baseball event on Saturday and got in a good workout. The lineups for these minors teams haven’t been definitely established yet, and Coach Edwards tried various combinations to give all the boys a chance.
A married ladies’ softball team composed of Mrs. Fred Crossen, Mrs. M. Hornsby, Mrs. E. Wagg, Mrs. Harry Holden, Mrs. Dawson Wagg and Mrs. L.C. Murphy with several additions from the ranks of the single girls provided a softball exhibition with a single girls on the sound diamond. The unmarried gals came out on top and look on the second girls team in the final.

The Girls’ Softball league is drawing up a new schedule since another team has fallen by the way. Markham-Unionville is giving up. Willowdale dropped out two weeks ago. This leaves only Stouffville, Aurora, and Newmarket in the running unless Richmond Hill can be induced to enter a team. STOUFFVILLE JRS. SWAMP NEWMARKET BY 8-1 SCORE
Stouffville carried a shutout from Newmarket on Friday night, but for the last inning error which allowed Newmarket to score their lone tally. Freddie Sphiliman was on the local mound and mowed down seven of the opposing batters via the strikeout route. Gibson and Dales shared the Newmarket mound chores and downed six Stouffville batsmen in the same manner. Gibson was chased in the third innings, when Stouffville had a field day, scoring five of their eight runs, on two doubles and three singles. Posenko who did a nice job in second base position came through with a two bagger, his second hit of the night, and Miller followed suit. Schell, Wilson and Sphiliman all singled.
Ken Schell’s arm was in perfect condition behind the plate for Stouffville and he threw two men out at second and another at third with a perfect trio of ‘pegs’. Freddie Sphiliman had command of the entire game until the last innings, when he eased up slightly. Blight got on first on an error, Winger, the league’s home run king, walked and McTavish singled, to load the bases with none out. However, the Stouffville twirler assured coach George Smith that he was okay, and proved it by striking out the next pair of Newmarket batters.
The win gave Stouffville a commanding lead of ten points over Newmarket, the second place club. Newmarket visits the local diamond this Wednesday afternoon. JUNIORS TAKE 4-PT GAME FROM AURORA
Behind the three-hit pitching of Orval Rouse, Stouffville came from behind f to take a 2-1 decision in a Junior O.B.A. ball game here on Wednesday. Aurora collected a run in the top half of the third innings when Sutton got on an error and Kyle hit into short right field.
Stouffville’s big moment came in the third when Minton walked, Miller doubled into left field and Schell got an infield hit. Campbell flied out and Sellers and Nicholson went down by a pitch to first.
The local nine held another royal chance to fatten their lead in the 6th, after Miller doubled, and Schell and Sellers each hit to load the bases. Miller was caught off third by the Aurora catcher.
In the seventh, the home fans were on the edge of their seats or their toes, depending where you happened to be, as with two out and two on, Rouse was ordered to pass Andrus to load the bases. Nigh, the next batter, hit the first ball pitched and sent a drive down the third base line which Keith Jewett picked out of the air well over his head. It was a million dollar catch, as at least two Aurora men would have crossed the plate had the ball gone into left field for a hit.
The win put Stouffville up in front with 10 points, Newmarket is second with four points and Aurora third with two points, as of Wednesday, June 18th. STOUFFVILLE JUNIORS TAKE 10-3 SHELLACKING
After winning four straight games in succession, Stouffville Juniors were handed a 10-3 pasting by Agincourt on Monday night over on the Yonge St. diamond. It was possibly to be expected that the boys would have a tendency to let down after their consistent winning streak, and that’s just what happened.
Aurora batsmen didn’t do any overly heavy slugging, but the local lads could not do anything right and the barrage of errors kept Aurora players scampering the base paths continuously, Smith went the route on the ill for Aurora, while Lorne Schell and Fred Sphiliman shared the Stouffville twirling.
While manager Bruce Winterstein and Coach Mrs. Bob Bone of the Stouffville Girls softball team may not walk off with any silver cups this season, they sure have an up and coming young ball club which will be registered nearer the top next season if they remain together. Helen Snowball, youthful outfielder won’t turn 12 until July; Erla Holden is just 14, Joan Haines, 11 and “Weiner” Miller 15; Sheila Tait is also a 14-year-older. The remainder of the lineup have only a couple of extra years each with the exception of Gertie Slack.

For the second year, the Lyons Lawn Bowling cup has been won by local ladies. Last week Mrs. L. Hoover, Mrs.Thomas Jennings and rMc C. Lemon (skip) brought home the Newmarket silverware. Congratulations!
The Eckardt trophy played, for years, on the local bowling greens Friday evening was won by Jim Granger and his aides from Richmond Hill. Jim is a formidable pencil pusher for the Richmond Hill newspaper, but his prowess on the green seems to be quite as imposing.
Members of the Stouffville Athletic Club made a real showing last week on the local tennis courts and have them in the finest shape seen for many a day. Messrs. Gar Lehman, Del Jennings and Ken Laushway were largely responsible for all the work. STOUFFVILLE SMOTHERS NEWMARKET 5-1
Stouffville Juniors moved their league leadership to ten points on Wednesday night, by downing the luckless Newmarket Club a 5-1 defeat in Memorial Park before the largest crowd of the season. The game was close up until the last innings, with v holding only a one run lead, but then the roof started to fall in. Geo. Haskett’s boys just could not do anything right, and the home fans had plenty to yell about, as their favourites pounded Brown and Broughton for a single, a double and a triple and romped home on three errors in the field.
Ken Schell collected two hits in three tries during the night, and Minton had two for four. Jewett was walked twice. For Newmarket Blight and Thoms were the most potent batters. Orv. Rouse pitched for Stouffville allowing but six hits and striking out six batters. Stouffville collected seven hits from the Newmarket hurlers, four from Brown and three from Dales. WELLS PITCHES MIDGETS TO A 7-1 WIN OVER AURORA
Stouffville Midgets went to Aurora on Tuesday. They left two hours later with a seven to one victory tucked in the bat bag. It was a matter of too much Wells for Aurora. The young left hander was in complete control all the way, only six men getting on base.
He allowed three hits, issued two walks and hit a batter. Only two runners reached as far as third base. He also struck out seven would be Aurora batters. They also collected six hits, Schell having two of them. R. Simmons collected the only extra hit of the game, a double.
Keith Kyle, 17-year-old athlete at Aurora High School has been chosen as the first winner of the Gar Doolittle memorial trophy, for the best all-around athlete. The late gar Doolittle, it will be recalled was a member of last years’s Aurora ball team, who died suddenly in Newmarket Hospital. The trophy is in his memory.
The Stouffville Old Boys cup has been pried away from the local tourney last week. G. Jerex of Richmond Hill took the silverware home with him with a fair margin of points. The silverware was a gift of Dr. G. Richardson and F.L. Button and has maintained a good interest down the years. Gordon Lemon and his rink of Fred Carruthers and Robert Johnston came second in the race, while Dr. Butcher from Uxbridge was third. The Stouffville Club popped up with a rink skipped by T.B. Rae, assist Elgin Wagg and Norman Baker in fourth place. A fine day and green contributions to the enjoyment of the bowlers.
Something went haywire in the Midget and Bantam schedules, as well at the girls’ softball arrangements on Friday night. Stouffville Midgets were scheduled to play Markham, and instead v Bantams showed up for the game. In the girls’ case, Richmond Hill the new entry in the latest attempt at a softball schedule, failed to show up for the game. As a result the evening was pretty well a washout. It would appear that a little more co-ordination is needed between the clubs, and among the members of the local management, so that things like this don’t occur as often as they have this season. The midget game, incidentally was the final game of the schedule.

Stouffville Girls’ Software team pulled a win 7-5 over Memorial Park on Friday evening Gertie Slack and Lois Baker homered for the local girls while Jean Miller pitched the entire the entire game. Jose Oulette was handing the umpiring chores behind the plate.
Four of the Stouffville Midget payers have been selected by Markham to play in their all-year team which has a bye into the O.B.A Midget play-downs. The local lads who will join the Markham team when the local playoffs are over are, Roy Ward, Grant Wells, Percy Schell and George Timbers.
In a postponed game on Friday night, Markham Midgets handled the Ted Edwards boys quite a shellacking to the tune 10-3. Wells was on the local mound and held the Markham batters fairly well in check, but numerous errors in the field allowed many Markhamites to scamper around the bases unmolested. Percy Schell was the most potent hitter for the home team. Markham Midgets, coached by “Jesse” James have won every game of the schedule so far, Stouffville has three more rained out games to play off to complete the schedule. THE COST OF ARENAS
In view of the fact that many have admired the new arena in Waterloo, with its artificial ice surface, it will be interesting to learn about the cost of the project. Debenture were issued for $50,000 after $30,000, had been subscribed privately , but now the total cost will be $120,000. estimated. It is a story that is being repeated in many towns for different kinds of building, says the Milton Canadian Champion in commenting on the Waterloo arena costs.
Stouffville Girls’ Softball team dropped a 10-8 decision with Richmond Hill on Monday night, playing in the Yonge St. town. They were scheduled to play in Agincourt on Tuesday evening. This Saturday the “glorious twelfth” the homebrews will play in a tournament at Richmond Hill where an Orange Parade is being held.
The Stouffville Athletic Club promoters of local sports are preparing to bolster their treasury to prepare for this winter’s activities by holding a street fair and dance on Aug. 13. They’re going all-out to put on a real program, and have contracted for George Wade, Canadian’s outstanding old time dance band leader for a one-night stand, at quite a substantial figure. Incidentally, the Athletic Club has spent between $700 and $800 on four baseball teams thus season. About fifty percent of this amount was raised through their initial canvas in town, something which the executive tells us will never be carried out again. The remaining half of the funds has been raised by the club through collections at the games, and a May 24th field day.
The local tennis courts are going all-out and players had to wait their turn for a chance to play last week. A tip for the local club, if such there is, comes from Aurora where Keith Davis president of the Newmarket club is giving free instruction to players.

GIRLS NOSED OUT IN THE FIRST PLAYOFF GAME
Stouffville Girls’ Softball team dropped the first of a best two out of three semi-final round with Aurora last week 14-13. It was napped tuck all the way, but Aurora managed to push across a run in the last innings to nose out Bruce Winterstein’s nine. Lois Baker led the Stouffville batters with three runs.
Betty Davis was on the Stouffville mound for the first three innings hen she was relieved by Jean Miller who finished the game. M. Foote was the Aurora pitcher. Aurora narrowly missed tucking away a homer in the last innings when one of their girls was called out for failing to touch second base afresh pasted a ball neatly out of the park. MILLER HOMERS IN PANTRY PARK, LOCALS LOSE 7-3
Although Stouffville dropped their second contest in a week to Newmarket Junior ball club 7-2 on Friday night they had one star at the plate. “Lofty” Miller swung hard on the first pitch offered up to him in the second innings by Brown on the Newmarket mound, and sent it almost out of town for a homer. Brown had already allowed two Stouffville men to cross the plate in the first innings, so manager Haskett replaced him with Hopper.
Newmarket scored four runs in the first innings, only one of them earned, but it set the Haskett boys away to lead which they never relinquished. Stouffville had a royal chance to come close in the second innings when Raxlin and Jewett got around to second and third, then the big muff came. Raxlin attempted to go home on a passed ball, and was nabbed at the plate. No sooner had the dust cleared from this play at the plate, than Dales pulled the “hidden ball trick” on Jewett at third to retire the side. It’s not the first time this stunt has been attempted in games this season, but it was the first tie it had been successful, and the laurels went to Newmarket.
Hopper displayed streaks of wildness, but managed to keep the Stouffville batters from getting many solid clouts. MsHale, Rutledge and Dales were top men for Newmarket at bat, and came home with two runs each.
Sphilman was continually in trouble on the Stouffville mound, although he did set down four batters by strikeouts. Newmarket capitalized on every Stouffville misplay and scored seven runs on the long right hander before he was replaced by Lorne Schell who kept Newmarket sluggers in check until the end of the game. JUNIORS HIT SLUMP ON LOSING TO AURORA 7-3
Aurora pressed hard on the heels of the Stouffville Junior ball club on Wednesday when they downed the home town favourites by a score of 7-3. The local boys failed to show any top notch form they had displayed the week before when they put on a dazzling display of ball beating Newmarket.
Although Keith Jewett got around to the third sack in the initial innings, he was left stranded there, and no Stouffville batter circled three bases until the final innings when the boys started a barrage which netted them three runs.
Rouse was touched up for hits in each inning but the fourth, but his fielding support was poor and Aurora scored in every innings but two. They opened their scoring in the second frame with two, another in the fourth, two in the fifth and three in the fifth.
The footing was a bit slippy owing to a heavy down pour just prior to the game which did account for a number of fumbles as the boys clutched at slippery spheres. However, it certainly was not Stouffville’s night and was a good game to dispose of before the boys hit the playoffs.

STOUFFVILLE TO TANGLE WITH NEWMARKET FOR BALL HONOURS
The local Junior baseball schedule is coming to a hurried conclusion, owing to the “speed up” call from O.B.A., who wish a winner declared here next week to advance into the Ontario Junior playoffs.
Aurora has decided to drop out of the running and concentrate on their Midget team which has a bye into the playoffs.
This leaves Stouffville and Newmarket to play the best two-out-of-three series to decide the winner. The first game will be in Newmarket this Friday evening, with the second in Stouffville next Wednesday, Aug. 13th. Stouffville, having completed the schedule on top, will no doubt receive the preferences, if a third game is necessary.
There’s trouble in the North York softball league. Secretary Harold Rogers has announced suspension for three games of player Armstrong of Langstaff and Manager Charles Ryan of Richmond Hill, and the barring of umpire Wm. Bone of Richmond Hill from further umpiring in the league. Cause of the uproar on Yonge St. was a game between Richmond Hill and Langstaff, when a decision was given that allowed a Hill runner to score the winning run. STOUFFVILLE BANTAMS HAVE IMPRESSIVE WIN IN 2ND ROUND OF SCHEDULE
Stouffville Bantams floored Markham’s pee wee ball players on Thursday night by a score of 9-1. This was the first game of a second round of the schedule which has been arranged by the executive. The Stouffville boys were sparked by the hitting of Donald Macgregor, who blasted a double and a triple, each with the bases loaded. The home boys played errorless ball in the field, and came up with two smart double plays, the one, Bud Lehman to Don Macgregor, and the other Ron Smith to Ron Walsh.
Sunny Fockler and Ron Smith shared the Stouffville pitching duties with Jack Barkey and Ed Murphy doing the catching. Hunt and Blake on the Markham hill were unable to hold down the Stouffville sluggers who touched them up for eight hits. Markham collected just four hits of the par of local pitchers. They scored their lone tally in the first innings when Petch doubled. GIRLS ELIMINATED FROM SOFTBALL RUNNING
Stouffville Girls Softball team went down 16-7 before the bats of the Aurora team last week in the third game of their best-of-three semi-final series for the right to advance against Newmarket in the finals for the group championship.
It was definitely an off night for Bruce Winterstein’s nine and Aurora took full advantage of the fact to run up a big score.
This winds up the schedule for Th. local girls team, although they expect to play several exhibition games this month. The team is to be congratulated on the start made this season. The young Stouffville team is expected to provide a real close contender for the championship next season.
Word was received this Tuesday by manager Geo. Smith that the O.B.A. was asking for an immediate winner of this Junior baseball group for the Junior ‘B’ O.B.A. playdowns. Thus Stouffville and Newmarket will lock horns, this Friday night at Newmarket and back here on Wednesday, in a best of three series for the group championship.
Perfect weather prevailed for the mixed bowling tournament on the local greens here for the holiday and the following were the winners, Ed Wurm and Mrs. Grubin, 1st: Mr. Stewart’s rink from Toronto, 2nd: Dawson Davis and Mrs. Gordon Lemon, 3rd: Mr Johnson and Mrs. Campbell, 4th. STOUFFVILLE BOUNCE BACK INTO FIRST PLACE TIE WITH AURORA IN JUNIOR BALL
Stouffville bounced back into a tie for first place in the currant Junior baseball series with Aurora on Wednesday night, by defeating the league leaders by a score of 6-4. The game was played before a record crowd which was given a thrill a minute.
The climax came in the last innings, when “Hocus” Miller, Stouffville’s lanky first sacker stepped up to the plate, with the score tied, two on bases and two out. Miler was due for a hit, and the big crowd cheered lustily as he came up to face Andrews on the mound. Their prayers were answered as Miller swung sharply on the third pitch and sent it three hundred and thirty feet out into centre field for a triple. Smith of Aurora made a nice effort to get to the ball, but just couldn’t enough of it to hang on before it dropped over the fence. Two runs scored and the game was over and won.
Lorne Schell went the route for Stouffville on the mound and pitched a masterful game, holding the visitors to three hits, and might have shut them out without a run, but for s streak of wild fielding in the third when Aurora gathered three runs. He struck out four.
Stunden and Andrews, Aurora twirlers, gave up nine safe hits between them. Two of the hits off Andrews were triples, one by Minton in the fifth and one by Miller.
Stouffville broke into the scoring in the fourth innings when Posenko and Lorne Schell walked and Rouse sent a sharp grounder through the box into centre field fence line with a triple and came home on a hit by Ken Schell. Raxlin worked Stunden for a walk, Miller struck out, but Schell and rPosenko went out on bases to retire the side, leaving the score three-all.
Doolittle who took more than his share of ribbing from the crowd during the game, had his innings in the sixth, when he tripled and came home on an overthrow. This counter put the Yonge streeters out in front again 4-3.
Minton, Miller and Lorne all hit safely the last innings to win the game. Orv. Rouse who played second base for v counted for two hits, and Bill Wilson another. Clement, Doolittle and Smith did the hitting for Aurora.

O.B.A. RULINGS CHANGE LOCAL BASEBALL PICTURE
Some explanation should be forthcoming regarding the change in the baseball picture in all branches from Junior down to Bantam. At the beginning of the campaign, both Stouffville and Newmarket had entered the Junior ‘B’ competition, but advice now comes from O.B.A. headquarters that no group can have more than one entrant in the Ontario playdowns, so thus the two-out-of-three series between the two.
The same ruling makes it necessary for Newmarket Midgets and Markham Midgets to declare a group winner. Originally, both had signified their intention of going into the O.B.A. playdowns.
Aurora believe their chances are better in the Juvenile section and dropped from the junior competition. They have the go ahead signal from the O.B.A. to meet Whitby in the first Ontario playoff round. Simcoe Reformers won the Juvenile ‘B’ championship last year.
Len Clement, Richmond Hill, father of Mac Clement, defence star of last winter’s Stouffville hockey juniors, has presented a beautiful gold memorial trophy for annual competition among lady lawn bowlers. It will be competed for on Sept. 6th, at a ladies tournament in Richmond Hill.
According to Grant Nighswander of Richmond Hill, and Doug James of the Markham town, the Markhamites, after signing Percy Schell, Roy Ward, Grant Wells, and Geo. Timbers of Stouffville, for their midget ball team, has given them their releases, and we understand they are now willing to play for Newmarket.
Howard Forgie, Markham hockey player, whose appearance last winter in Stouffville Junior uniform on several occasions, caused an O.H.A. protest ruling barring Forgie from further play here, tells us that he has been successful in making a place on one of the eight hockey teams which will make up the Scottish League this winter, and will sail for the Old Country the first week in September. Brodie of Newmarket was also picked, Howard tells us. The boys have been working out at Ravina rink.
Howie Meeker of Maple Leaf hockey fame has been in the unwelcome baseball spotlight lately having been banished from senior inter-county baseball games on two occasions. These make the third and fourth times this season Meeker has been removed from the baseball park. This time in Kitchener. According to the Kitchener daily newspaper reports Meeker incurred the wrath of the fans through his rough play tactics. It is rumoured that his latest escapade may lead to suspension.
TROUNCE NEWMARKET 8-1 BUT UMPIRE CALLS GAME FOR “STALLING”

“Kick” Paisley, former Stouffville Junior hockey player and first sacker on the Mt. Albert softball team in the southern section of the Lake Simcoe lead, was picked last week by the coaches of the various teams, as among the all-star team. TROUNCE NEWMARKET 8-1 BUT UMPIRE CALLS GAME FOR “STALLING”
Game Must Be Replayed , O.B.A. Ruling
Although Stouffville Juniors snowed under the Newmarket entry in the first game of their three game play off series in Newmarket on Friday night, the game must be replayed owing to a dispute arising through the game called after alleged “stalling” by both clubs
According to agreement, played games must go seven innings to be counted. Stouffville had a tidy lead stacked up by the end of the fifth innings. However, Stouffville was charged with making an intentional move to hurray the game to conclusion when Don Campbell, local batter, made wild swings at several balls pitched at him and was struck out to retire the side in the fifth.
Newmarket’s first baseman was charged with deliberately allowing a Stouffville player to reach first in the sixth innings, and after this play, umpire Case behind the plate called the game. Stouffville, naturally was anxious to have the game wound up as soon as possible since they had a substantial lead. Newmarket, on the other hand, saw their only chance was to prolong the game, and thus have it called on account of darkness before seven innings could be completed. There was still plenty of time to have completed the innings and a half before darkness set in, when the game was called.
Umpires Case and Ab Hulse, along with managers Geo. Haskett and Geo. Smith and president Simmons went into a huddle following the contest, and left the final decision to the O.B.A. officials.
There was friction even before the game started, since Stouffville was a half hour late in arriving, and in addition local umpires were employed by Newmarket. There was protests from both sides for these two offences.
The Stouffville team were full measure for their win, both in the field and on the mound. Lorne Schell allowed but three safe hits in five innings, and the balance of the team gave him excellent support in the field. Hill scored the lone Newmarket tally in the last of the fifth. Brown and McHale were the other Newmarket hitters.
Jewett stretched a single into a triple in the first innings for Stouffville, and scored when Minton went to first on an error.
The local batting power really broke loose in the first if the fifth, and coupled with sloppy fielding be Newmarket, netted Stouffville seven runs. Brown who started on the hill for Newmarket was pulled by Manager Haskett halfway through the innings, and replaced by Dales who gave up three successive hits..Ken Schell was robbed of a home run by the narrowest margin when he lined to centre field. Posenko also doubled, and Rouse, Minton, Miller, Wilson and Lorne Schell singled. The two Newmarket hurlers were toughed up for a total of seven hits. Posenko caused quite a sensation when he scored the seventh run of the innings by stealing home on pitcher Dales windup.
Pitcher Dales for Newmarket and Sphilman for Stouffville, participated in three of the playoff games within the last week. Of the three games, Sphilman saw action in thirteen innings and Dale in fourteen.

Pitcher Dales for Newmarket and Sphilman for Stouffville, participated in three of the playoff games within the last week. Of the three games, Sphilman saw action in thirteen innings and Dale in fourteen.
Stouffville Girls Softball team are not letting any grass grow under their feet, even though their schedule is over for the season. The girls downed Agincourt in an exhibition game last week, and were runners-up in the softball tournament at Mount Albert.
l. Doolittle, big talkative Junior hardballer with Aurora this year, made an extra good showing at the recent Toronto Leaf baseball school, and was picked as one of the four best, attending the school. BASEBALL ALL-STAR SELECTIONS MADE

JUNIORS WIN CHAMPIONSHIP, OUST NEWMARKET IN RUBBER GAME PLAYED IN AURORA
For the second successive year, Stouffville Junior ball team has ousted Newmarket from the O.B.A. playoffs in the third game of the final series.With the score tied 5-5 going into the final innings, Stouffville came through with three runs to clinch the group championship 8-5. Jewett came through with a double, Ken Schell and Carl Sellers, each singled to notch the three winning counters. Lanky Fred Sphilman set down two of the last three Newmarket batters on strikeouts, and Blight from Newmarket who had given his supporters new hope by getting on by an error, died on third base when his team mates failed to come through with a hit.
It was a nip and tuck battle all the way, and the game was in doubt right up to the final out. Newmarket took the lead in the second innings 2-0, when Hopper and Thoms singled and Dales got on by an error. Stouffville came right back in the top of the third to score four runs and send pitcher Brown to the showers. Newmarket added another run to their total in the third, and then took the lead in the fifth 5-4. In the sixth, Ken Schell crossed the plate after a long fly was caught to even the score.
Rouse started the game on the muon for Stouffville, but was relieved after the third innings by Sphilman. Hitting was spread throughout the local team, with no player getting more than one safety. Hopper was the most potent batter for Newmarket, getting a single and a triple in three trips to the plate.
Feelings were tense through the entire game, and was evidenced by a number of errors in the field. It will be recalled last year after successive protests and counter protests, Stouffville defeated Newmarket on the same Aurora diamond for the championship. Again this year, the first game was thrown out due to a dispute, and again Stouffville came through to squeeze Newmarket from the running. WITH THE BOWLERS
The Men’s Provincial Lawn Bowling Tournament was held in Toronto last week and the ladies section entertained the American ladies who were in Toronto with their husbands.

“A real sporting town” was the comment of Aurora and Whitby baseball officials when they visited Memorial Park her on Thursday night for their Juvenile ball game. It so happened that there was a larger turnout of Stouffville fans for this game between two outside teams, than either team had drawn in their home game.
The visitors were also high in their praise of our park, and condition of the diamond. They arrived in ton early expecting to have to do some work on the field in preparation for their game, but to their delight, the diamond was in perfect condition and properly marked out, thanks to Chairman John Scott and his aides of the Park Commission.
Stouffville has drawn no small share of publicity this summer through the excellent condition of the town park. Visiting groups from all over the country have enjoyed its cool shade and recreation facilities. Caretaker Bert Batt is to highly congratulated on his work on the grounds. JUNIORS GO ONE GAME UP ON BOWMANVILLE BEHIND THE FOUR-HIT PITCHING OF SCHELL
Stouffville Juniors carry a one game advantage to Bowmanville this afternoon (Wednesday) in their best of three Junior ‘B’ series. The local nine came through with flying colours on Saturday afternoon in memorial Park, to down the highly-rated Bowmanville squad 7-2.
Lorne “Porky” Schell on the Stouffville mound, was in top form and held the visiting sluggers to four scattered safeties and in addition crashed out a double himself in the fourth innings. Schell worked his batters well, striking out seven and walking but two. He turned on the full heat of his veering slants in the top of the ninth, striking out two of the last four batters that faced him.
Bowmanville were definitely off colour in the field, committing five errors. In the top of the 8th, Nick rPosenko went all the way around to third, after striking our, as the Bowmanville catcher made a wild throw to first, after dropping the third strike.
Stouffville came very close to blanking the Bowmanville team entirely, but for a bobble between second and centre, when a high pop up was not called for dropped past Rouse as he made a last minute sprint for the ball. However, the fielding support given Schell, left little to be desired.
Struck, pitching for the visitors was not to blame for his teams’s loss, as he registered ten strikeouts against Stouffville. He allowed nine hits.
Stouffville scored in six of the eight innings in which they batted, scoring one run each time, with the exception of the fourth when two local men crossed the plate. rPosenko and Ken Schell were tops in the local hitting roster, Posenko getting two singles and a double in four trips to the plate. Minton, Miller, Sellers, Rouse, Campbell and Lorne Schell each registered one hit.
Cox was the big gun for Bowmanville, getting three singles for four tries.

NEWMARKET TAKES ELMER TILL TROPHY
The annual tournament of the Stouffville Lawn Bowling Club for the Elmer Still trophy, held on Aug. 27th, was won by A. Murdison of Newmarket, with three wins and a score of 58 plus 2 points. F.L.

Stouffville girls downed the Uxbridge fair sex 19-5 in an exhibition game here on Thursday night.
Mrs. Beatty’s rink from the North Toronto Bowling Club were the winners on Saturday at Richmond Hill of the Clement memorial Trophy, donated this year for the first time by Len Clement, who incidentally is father of Mac Clement, popular Stouffville hockey player. An entry from the Stouffville club was received too late. JUNIORS BREAKDOWN IN SECOND GAME WITH BOWMANVILLE
Stouffville Juniors must have felt the shades of last season drawn over them in Bowmanville on Wednesday, as they went to pieces to lose 12-0. This was just half the score by which they dropped from the running before the same team last year.
The boys just couldn’t seem to do anything right, while Bowmanville were hitting perfection stride behind the slants of lefty Struck, who held the home sluggers down to four hits, allowing only three men to face him in four out of the nine innings.
Clemence of Bowmanville who pitched in the first game with Stouffville in the Junior playoffs, and again for innings in the final game, has visions of a professional ball career. The lanky right-hander tells us he will be given a chance with one of the farm clubs in the St. Louis farm chain of the Major League next year. JUNIORS GO DOWN 6-4 IN THIRD PLAYOFF GAME
Bowmanville 6, Stouffville 4, is the way the score read at the end of the third game in their best of three O.B.A. Junior ‘B’ baseball playoff series, but for local fielding errors could have easily read the other way. “Porky” Schell turned in his second nice mound performance of the series, setting down Bowmanville with seven safeties in addition he collected two singles, the best batting performance of any player on the team.
Bowmanville used southpaw Struck to tie up the local batters as he had done in the second game down in Bowmanville. He allowed just six hits up until the seventh innings, when he was relieved on the mound by Clemence, the losing pitcher here in Stouffville in the first game.
Bowmanville got one hit in the fourth innings, but two more men on bases through errors and two runs scored to open count. Stouffville came right back in their half to score one run on a hit by catcher “Butch” Schell. Bowmanville added another in the sixth and three in the eighth Stouffville capitalized on an infield error in the seventh to score another, and pushed two across in the eighth.
Local fans thought the hometowners had started to roll along and were confident of tying the score in the last of the ninth, but their hopes were short-lived.
Pitchers Clemence saw the series winner in sight, and bore down with everything he had. To add to this was the nervous tension of the Stouffville batters, who had their backs to the wall. Both “Porky” Schell and Posenko went down swinging, while Jewett lined to the pitcher to end the game.
However, Stouffville fans are not too downhearted. They realized that the opposition was tough and still believe they have a good ball club. Some mighty good baseball has been dished up for local ball fans this summer, and this column offers its congratulations to the team on their showing.
Two of the group of hockey players who left last Saturday for Scotland are Pat McCloskey and Ron Lintner of Whitby. Both have played Bantam, Junior and Intermediate. Other district players who went along were Mundel from Aurora, Forgie of Markham and Hockberg, Uxbridge

LADY BOWLER HERE HAVE FINE RECORD
The Ladies section of the of the Stouffville Bowling Club have been doing some fine playing this season in that they have won three trophies and placed third for three wins out of 36 rinks for the Bradley Gold Cup at Oshawa last week. This last rink was skipped by Mrs. Wm. Birkett and viced by Mrs. Gordon Lemon, while the lead and second players were Mrs. Evans and Mrs Beare of Claremont. The Simpson Co. Trophy was won last week by Mrs. Birkett’s rink with Mrs. Crossen and Mrs. Jennings as lead and vice. The other two trophies were won by rinks skipped by Mrs. Lemon, the Lyons Cup at Newmarket and the Simpson Cup presented by their own club.
Two rinks played at Newmarket last week for the Mulock Cup. However, they did not return with the Cup, but Mrs. Watts’ rink was high for two wins, and Mrs. Hoover’s rink was high for one win.
All members eligible to play are asked to remember the trebles tournament on Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m., and to let the games committee have their names by Friday afternoon. This is the last tournament of the season. On Monday evening there are game for every bowler and anyone interested in becoming bowlers. Last Monday evening the fruit given as prizes was donated by Mr. Glen Ratcliff. GOOD JUNIOR HOCKEY PROMISED THIS WINTER
While to many, hockey may seem to be a long way off, it’s just around the corner for Manager Bob Snowball and his aides who are working on the formation of another Junior hockey team, and one which they expect will more than please local fans here this winter.
Last year’s team, Junior finalists, will be iced intact with the exception of two of the lads who will be past the age limit. Defenceman Jack Rumney had forward Lloyd Pascoe will be looking for a berth on some Intermediate team this season.
At the moment, the balance of the team is ready to go, Doug Moore will be back in goal, Don Campbell and Mac Clement, defence, Keith Jewett, Polly Minton, Lloyd Jennings, Bill Mabbett, Bun Sellers and Gord. Lewis.
According to Coach Ike Harper, the team will definitely carry more players this season, and he has a vision of an all-Stouffville line, comprised of Lloyd Jennings, Doug Burkholder, and Percy Schell. To further strengthen the team we expect to see husky Johnny Atkinson, top Aurora defenceman, in a Stouffville uniform this winter. Norm Stunden, Richmond Hill Junior ‘B’ goalie a couple of seasons ago, and who is a forward of no mean ability, is also expected to be on hand.
Overtures are also being made to several star performances to join the local squad when they step on Oshawa ice the first of November for initial tryouts.
Unionville will definitely be icing a Junior ‘C’ team this year, according to word given your reporter by Cy Allen, who will do the coaching job. The team will carry the Markham-Unionville Lions name and will play their games at Unionville. They are seeking the services of players from Leaside, Wexford and Agincourt and promise some real opposition.
Markham Village is an unknown quantity, as far as Junior hockey goes According to Gordon brown, one of the directors of the Markham Millionaires Intermediate finalists, this team is almost certain to be in the field again. Highland Creek is also rumoured to be planning to place a team in the field in the Intermediate bracket. Messrs. Henderson and Lawton of Markham Village are interested in promoting a Junior team here too, according to Chuck McCarty who would coach the squad, of such if formed. However, Junior hockey would not appear to get much support around Markham, in view of the big interest in the Intermediate team
Aurora will definitely be in the Junior group again, and are moving out already to line up a real contender this year.
A minor group operating under the O.H.A> Ian a possibility in this locality, Stouffville, Unionville and Markham were just a little late swinging into action last year to establish a real group. The Athletic Club is intending to be behind minor hockey in Stouffville and provide hockey for all the kids from bantam age up.

The Kitchener-Waterloo senior O.H.A. team is plenty peeved at the schedule arrangements made for them in the drawing up of this season’s schedule by the O.H.A. officials. They gave them just four Friday night home games. We quote from Don Odette, Kitchener sports writer: “The Kitchener- Waterloo senior O.H.A. hockey club is learning slowly that those heart-warming smiles and handshakes given out by the O.H.A. must be taken with a snicker. At the schedule meeting of the O.H.A. Bunny Morgason, who is supposed to be in charge of the O.H.A. publicity and has a great deal to do with drawing up schedules seemed quite annoyed with the local delegation. The O.H.A. won no friends here.”

The “heavy negotiations” which have been going on between Stouffville Junior hockey executive and Unionville for some time, reached an amicable conclusion last week, with the release to Stouffville of three of last year’s players, Polly Minton, Keith Jewett and Don Campbell. Bill Collins, fast-stepping redhead who practiced with Stouffville and had signed with the local team, will now go to Unionville and put his signature to a Junior ‘B’ certificate. It is also expected that Norm Stunden on whom Stouffville had designs at the beginning of the practice season, may get a permanent goal-tending job for Unionville ‘Bs’.

Doug Moore, plucky young net-minder with Stouffville Red Wings for his third season received a nasty cut on the chin during practice at Oshawa on Friday night. He was removed to Oshawa General Hospital where the wound required five stitches to close. Jack Warriner, sub goalie filled in the breach when Moore was forced to retire.
The team was out in force and went through a strenuous workout. The last three weeks practice is beginning to tell as the boys are skating faster and getting more co-ordination into their play.
Most of the club executive was on hand as well, including president Thompson and manager Snowball and all were pleased at what they saw.

Stouffville High School defeated Agincourt 2-1 in the final scheduled soccer game on Friday. There was nothing at stake however, as Markham was already winner of this season’s championship.
Markham Millionaires downed Mahers of the city mercantile group 9-7 on Thursday night, in an exhibition hockey fixture, at Oshawa arena. The game was a ding-dong battle from start to finish, with considerable rough play. The score was tied 7-all with five minutes to go, when Markham after rather fading at the opening of the period, took a new lease on life, and clinched the contest with two quick ones by Jack Watson. A considerable number of Stouffville fans turned out to see their former Juniors, Lloyd Pascoe and George Rumney perform. These two newcomers to the Markham squad were going well, but lack a good left-winger to complete their line.
Just twenty-one years ago the present Stouffville Arena opened it doors to the public for the first time. Christmas night, was opening night, and an account of the event in The Tribune states that 400 people were present. “The new rink,” the account states, “is 180 x 75, just five feet narrower than the Mutual St. Arena , Toronto.” Fred Betz was the contractor and the first sod was turned on Oct. 25th 1926.
Markham Intermediates received a rude jolt at their practice at Varsity arena last week when the box containing all their brand new sweaters was stolen. Fortunately the pants belonging to the team were not in the box at the time. “I don’t see how it was possible for anyone to take them,” Coach Ernie Lawrie said, “we weren’t more than six feet from the stuff all the time.”
After practicing regularly for a month, Stouffville Junior hockey club were forced to lay off last week as there was no cep available. Oshawa, having opened their arena for three night skating cut the hockey time down. However the team is shaping up nicely and will be ready to engage in an exhibition game or two, when such can be arranged.
Doug Moore will again be minding the net with Jack Warriner, his assistant; Mac Clement, Johnny Atkinson and Don Campbell will form a really stellar defence trio; Jim Taylor is centering for Minton and Jewett, and this promises to be a standout line; Doug Ross, Bun Sellers and Bruce McMillan have been turning it on, with Bill Mabbett, Gord Lewis and Doug Burkholder forming a hustling third line.

Local fans may have their first chance to see their favourites in action at varsity next Monday night, when they are slated to meet Scarboro Dukes, a high-class Junior “B’ entry in the Toronto area. The Stouffville management is still awaiting confirmation of this game from manager Bert Sharpe of the Dukes. PASCOE AND RUMNEY SIGN WITH MARKHAM
Of interest to local fans will be the signing of George Rumney and Lloyd Pascoe by the Markham Millionaires this week. Both these lads have shown up well in practice and gave a good display in the Millionaires game against Mahers.
George Rumney, according to our scout, could be termed “a hockey coach’s delight,” having a very deceptive style, a good burst of speed and a dangerous shot. These qualities coupled with a fighting spirit that is found in George, just about assure any hockey player a rosy future in the game. Stouffville fans can look forward to seeing these two local favourites in action this winter with the Millionaires.

Nick Bangay whose professional hockey career with Philadelphia was short-lived as the former Markham star broke a collar-bone on the first game. He expects to have the cast removed this week.
Lyall Petch, a member of the Stouffville Junior squad two seasons ago and last year with Markham, is back with Stouffville this year, after a try-out with Unionville Junior ‘B’s”. He had his initial workout with Ike Harper’s crew last Tuesday night.
The exhibition Junior hockey game scheduled between Scarboro and Stouffville failed to materialized on Monday night. Manager Sharpe of the Dukes called to say that the ice couldn’t be had either at Varsity or Oshawa. Stouffville will practice at Oshawa this Thursday night. If the weather holds ice should be available in Stouffville next week.
Stouffville hockey fans are in for a pleasant surprise when they make their initial visit to the local arena. The place is undergoing an extensive paint job, both in the waiting rooms and the hockey boards. Another invocation will be a glassed-in announcer’s booth and press box. Reports from the players bench and penalty box will be phoned up for transmission over the P.A. system by “Foster” Farr. Ed Baker, brother of arena-owner Clay’t Baker, is down from the Haliburton district to do the paint job in the rink.
Both Stouffville and Aurora Juniors are awaiting the decision of Johnny Atkinson, stalwart defenceman of Richmond Hill as to which team he will line up with this year. Atkinson has been practicing regularly with Stouffville, and only last Tuesday night gave Manager Snowball definite assurance that he wished to be a permanent member of the team. He signed a Stouffville certificate over a month ago. However, Atkinson, having played for Aurora last year, must seek a release from that club if he desires to change over to the Stouffville team. Stouffville management counter this with the fact that through their Victoria Square entry, Atkinson could have been held from Aurora last year through mileage. Regardless of these regulations, both managers, Simmons of Aurora and Snowball of Stouffville are leaving the decision up to Atkinson, as neither club wishes to stand in the player’s way of being with the team of his choice. MARKHAM COACH TAKES BUCKO MCDONALD’S HOCKEY CHALLENGE
by Markham coach E. Lawrie
That happy old warrior Wilfred “Bucko” McDonald has appeared on the scene rather early this season and left some sizzling hockey comments on his trail.
“Bucko” wasn’t satisfied to merely criticize Connie Smyth , manager of the Toronto Maple Leafs, on his flying visit to the big city, but had to issue to a Toronto sport columnist the following statement for the benefit of the Millionaires,
“You can tell Markham we’re out after that Intermediate ‘B’ title again, and they’ll have to be very good to beat us this season.”
Mr. McDonald, the federal member of parliament for the Parry Sound district, went on to plug his Sundridge “Beavers”. They have changed to bright red uniforms, trimmed with yellow. Could it be that the red was selected to avoid traces of blood, Bucko? We don’t think so as there isn’t another team that the Millionaires would rather meet in the spring play-offs than Bucko’s Beavers.

At the O.H.A. convention Saturday, the executive voted $1500 for the purchase of hockey sticks to be distributed among deserving teen-age clubs of Ontario.
The e Wings had a stiff 60 minutes workout at Oshawa on Thursday night, with all hands on deck with the exception of Doug Burkholder. This will likely be the last practice on artificial ice. Schedules are do to commence in about three weeks.
This Friday the O.H.A. hockey groupings will be definitely set and we will know who plays where. The ‘D’ group has definitely been established for teams from centres under 4000 population. The ‘C’ category takes in centres up pt 10,000, and this is the group, the local group will remain in. Newmarket will, because of population, have to remain in’C’, as will Whitby, while Aurora will have the choice of dropping down to ‘D’ if their choice. Unionville Juniors ‘B’s’ who were represented at the annual O.H.A. session Saturday by secretary Bill Bradley, are looking to be placed in the local group, with a bye into the higher bracket playdowns. MAX REESOR RECEIVES O.H.A. SERVICE AWARD
At the 58th annual meeting of the O.H.A. held at the Royal York Hotel on Saturday, the O.H.A. Gold Stick Award of merit was presented to nine outstanding sportsmen for their contribution to hockey, and among them was Max Reesor of Markham, a familiar figure in sports, both in his home town and in Stouffville. The O.H.A. has created this Order of Merit and the executive has designed and made the gold stick, a tiny and perfect formed solid gold hockey stick to be worn on the coat lapel that will signify the wearer has earned the honour of the game.
George Panter, president of the O.H.A. made the initial presentation, the first one to W.A. Hewitt, secretary of the Association. The others who received the award were Jim Sunderland, Kingston; Dave Pinkney, Stratford, Frank Smith, Toronto Hockey League, Reeve Otto Hardwick, Bolton; Dr. J.R. Seaton, Sheffield; and Bill Hisey, Preston.
The battle still rages between Aurora and Stouffville for the possession of Johnny Atkinson, stellar defenceman, located in Richmond Hill. Aurora club executive met last weekend and communicated to v that they would attempt to force Atkinson to play for them by withholding his release. The arson given was that had made overtures to the player during the summer months to play here. However, some members of the Stouffville team inform this columnist that they received offers from Aurora management to join them. This would seem a flimsy excuse for going against a player’s wishes.

The Stouffville High School held their annual skating party in the Arena on Tuesday evening of this week.
Two exhibitions games which Aurora Junior hockey team had booked with Owen Sound and Toronto Byers were cancelled last week, due to Aurora injuries.
Two interform hockey games played last week at the local high school, Grade 12 downing Grade 13 by a score of 5-2 and then defeating Grade 10, two to one.
The local hockey delegation which went before the O.H.A. Monday night, reason to believe that there “just ain’t no justice,” as they were fined for illegal-parking while they were losing their case before the protest Board.
It was just ten years ago that Aurora ousted Stouffville from Junior O.H.A. competition in the hectic playoff series. The lineup of the local team at the time was, goal, Walter Holden, defence, Riddell, Taylor, Harper; forward, Joe Austin, Red Brillinger, Ken Rusnell, Jake Baker, Lambert Malloy, Bruce Davis.
Fans will regret to learn that “Skip” Taylor, popular left winger with the Stouffville Juniors, will be x-rayed this week for a possible broken nose received in the game at Aurora. “Skip” is one of the speed merchants of the local aggregation and a tireless backchecker who has been a valuable addition to this year’s Red Wing lineup.
Aurora spokesman on Monday night left no doubt but that their complaining to the O.H.A. was purely a retaliatory action for using Atkinson who had formerly played in Aurora, despite the fact the O.H.A. stated that Aurora had no right to hold him.
The fact that one player, of his own choosing, deciding to go to a new team, is little or no excuse for having that team re-classified in a having hockey bracket, particularly when defeat or victory was so much in duo — and even if defeat did appear inevitable few clubs, it is hoped, would seek to bar their opposition in this fashion, just to gain a free passage into the playoffs. JUNIOR O.H.A. PLAYOFFS OPEN HERE FRIDAY
The first home game for the local Junior team will be this Friday night against Unionville. The playoff round will carry the same dates as originally being that two teams will be eliminated. The remaining two teams will meet in a best two-out-of-games for the group championship.
The new playoff setup was arranged at a meeting of all the clubs held during the weekend.
The original playoff setup was found to extend too late in the season, thus the change. According to O.H.A. regulations, a group winner should be named by March 1st.
The teams with the smallest number of points obtained in this next round will drop out. KINGSTON HERE TUESDAY FOR ONTARIO MINOR LEAGUE PLAYDOWNS
Toronto Beaches who triumphed over Dristol cartage for the championship of their Juvenile ‘B’ group in a two-game series here last week, will meet Kingston, in the Stouffville Arena next Tuesday.
This is the first game of the Ontario playdowns for the Beaches, a smart Juvenile aggregation who make Stouffville their home ice. IT’S THE GAME OF THE YEAR
On Thursday night of this week the Markham Millionaires are pleased to present at Markham Arena one of the classiest amateur Senior teams in Canada. The visitors for this exhibition game will be Ace Bailey’s Varsity Blues current leaders of the Intercollegiate Circuit. Varsity Blues are known throughout the length and breadth of the American continent and this is the team that Canadians clamoured to have sent to the Olympic games.
In the last game against McGill University they beat the Redmen 9-0 and the McGill team beat our R.C.A.F. Flyers, (Olympic champions,) 7-2 in an exhibition game before they left for the winter games at St. Mortise.

The Stouffville Peewees are playing Agincourt Peewees Thursday, Feb. 19 in Stouffville arena from 6:30 to 7:30.
Newmarket will be the visiting team to the Junior playoffs here Friday night . Monday will see Aurora here and this engagement will no doubt draw a capacity crowd as usual.
Injuries have been plaguing the Juniors for the last couple of weeks. Atkinson, Mabbett and Jewett have all suffered leg injuries. Skip Taylor is playing with a fractured nose which somewhat affects his breathing. Stunden did not appear in the net for over a week because of a bout with the flu.
O.H.A. president Panter suggests that only one team instead of the two should be eliminated in the present playoff round because of the new setup placing Stouffville in ‘B’ hockey which gives them a bye in the Ontario playoffs regarding of where they finish in the standing.
The Red Wings will go into the Ontario ‘B’ playoffs without any additions to the team. While Aurora’s complaint to the O.H.A. which affected Stouffville’s shrift from ‘C’ to ‘B’, did leave 24 hours to rustle up more players, the local management decided to accept the situation as is. Sixteen players are listed on Red Wings certificates which included three goal-tenders and a spare defenceman. Only thirteen can dressed for any one game. There’s no limit on the number which can be signed.
Lloyd Pascoe, ex Stouffville Red Wings, now with Markham Millionaires has not been released by that club, as was noised about in local hockey circles last week. Lloyd has found the step from Junior to Intermediate ‘A’ hockey quite a big one. While he has the speed for the advanced hockey, the going is really “rough and tough” for lighter weight men. It’s only, regrettable that Pascoe’s age won’t permit him to continue in Junior ranks where his ability would be a welcome addition to any team.
There is till an illusion among local hockey is that the game as played by such a team as the Red Wings, is quite a reliable money making proposition. Few stop to realize that no junior hockey game is played in the local arena without an expense bill of a minimum of $35.00, and this amount is paid out of the team’s share of the evening gate receipts. At least two hundred fans, children and adults must pass through the gate at any given game before the club breaks even. Sixty percent of the gate goes to the club. There is also the $250 to $300 required to ice the team when the season opens to be considered. Operating expenses of the Red Wings amount to over $500 thus far this season. PLAYOFF CHANCES GOOD FOR LOCAL JUVENILES
The chances of the Stouffville Juveniles, coached by Murray Holden, hitting the local playoff trail are very good at the moment. They will play Unionville this Wednesday and Friday at Agincourt, and must win one of these two games to stay in the running. However, Unionville have three games to play this week, and should they drop any of these contests, Stouffville will automatically slip into a playoff berth.
The Juveniles shut out the Agincourt lads 3-0 in a home game here on Thursday night. Lorne Boadway, Percy Schell and Red Walters were the Stouffville marksmen.
Markham Millionaires have still another protest on their hands. Coach Ernie Lawrie reveals the Whitby Intermediate ‘A’ club has protested against Markham playing in ‘A’ hockey. They wished them raised still higher. When the season opened, Markham and Whitby were headed for byes in Intermediate ‘B’ and ‘A’ respectively. The other two teams in the group are Senior ‘B’ outfits. Markham has proved too tough competition for Whitby, and since they are now both classified as ‘A’ clubs, Whitby it appears, would very well like to have the Millionaires pushed up to Senior ‘B’ to assure them of their bye into the Ontario ‘A’ playoffs. Since Markham has been raised once already by complaints from other ‘B’ clubs, it is unlikely that the O.H.A. will make any further change “HOT STOVE LEAGUE”
This week we have two of the boys from Stouffville or district in the persons of Gord Lewis and Bun Sellers.
Gord, as most of you know, hails from the seventh of Markham and apparently life on the concession is good if we are to judge from the size and weight of Lewis. Gord has been quite a versatile player as far as the Red Wings are concerned, having played both forward and defence positions on the team. Currently Lewis has been filling a forward position and is giving an excellent account of himself. Melville Public School is his alma mater. Gord is living with his parents and helps keep thing on the farm running smoothly. He will be nineteen on March the 21st and that will give him another year in Junior hockey, which he hopes to spend with the Red Wings. Gord haploid with several teams most of them not well known but they have helped a lot to make him what he is today.
Many of you probably know Bun Sellers personally and I am sure you will agree that he’s a good man to have on any team.
His easy, apparently casual manner has payed off many times when the going got tough. Sellers saw the light of day on March 21st, 1930, and according to our arithmetic he is now 17. Educationally speaking Bun developed the grey matter under the staff of Brown’s Corner Public School. Something tells us that they must of had a hockey team down in that neck of the woods, because Bun was far from a rookie when he joined the local squad. he manages to keep on the move most of the time, driving a transport truck and in spite of et fact that it keeps him a little late for the bus on game nights, he seems quite happy with the job. the sixty-four dollar question, “Do you expect to play for the Red Wings again next year,” drew an answer in the affirmative and that news was not hard to take. RED WINGS TURN BACK ST. MIKE’S 6 TO 3
Nearly 700 fans were to Wednesday night to see the famed Toronto St. Michael’s ‘B’ squad square off with our favourite red Wings, and got a real thrill out of the 6-3 win over the Irish.
Despite the fact tat they entered the game minus the services of Bill Mabbett, who was injured in a league game the night before at Unionville and Skip Taylor whose car trouble delayed him a period and a half arriving, the RedWings held up well.
After less than five minutes of play, Minton trickled the puck passed Mooney on the short side of the Irish net to open the scoring. St Michael’s bottled up the locals to even the count at the 10 minute mark.
The Stouffville defence trio of Clement, Atkinson and Campbell roved a big factor in the local win, as they handed out some real affective body slams, which broke up many of St. Mike’s rushes.
Bun Sellers put the home team out in front 2-1 just as the bell ended period one.
Sticks were riding high as the mid-session got underway and Referee Reesor applied the “cooling out” process, sending two members of each club to the cooler for cross-checking and high sticking.
Gord Lewis had just nicely returned to the ice after a two minute stretch in the sin-bin, when he grabbed a loose puck as it came out of the corner to beat oMoney from close-in.
Corcoran and Robertson provided many of the Irish threatening rushes and beat More from close in to make it 3-2. The Red Wings held quite an edge in the last period. Doug Burkholder who turned in one of his best efforts of the season, scored twice, Lewis and MacMillan laying him the passes. Doug Ross and Sellers combined for the Red Wings sixth goal in the last twenty minutes.
The win was a definite encouragement to both the Red Wing players and the management as it was their first display against a ‘B’ class team since they were moved to the higher bracket of hockey.

RED WINGS TAKE GAME LEAD OVER OWEN SOUND. DEFEAT NORTHERNERS 12-4
After a period and a half of touch-and-go hockey. Stouffville Red Wings swept over the Owen Sound Juniors with seven goals on the last twenty minutes to win 12-4, in the first game of their best of three Junior ‘B’ Ontario playoffs.
Keith Jewett had a field day in the scoring department, coming up with five goals, one in the first, two in the second and two in the last. He was followed closely by Bill Mabbett with three.
Lumley proved the big scoring threat for the northerners. He scored three of his team’s four goals.
Billy Howard, 14-year old netminder for Owen Sound got a big hand from the crowd of over 850, as he turned aside a continuous barrage of Red Wing rubber. For the first period he was nearly unbeatable but midway through the second period his defence opened up badly, and Stouffville clicked the red light eleven times before Owen Sound replied.
Owen Sound matched the Red Wings rush for rush in the first period, and Norm Stunden was called on to save several breakaways, which he turned aside nicely.
Lumley opened the scoring for Owen Sound, Stouffville evened the count a minute later, Jewett combining with Taylor.
With Doug Ross in the cooler, Lumley put the visitors out in front again, McCaulym and Cook assisting.
Owen Sound continued to press as the second period got underway, and Lumley scored his third goal of the night, batting in a pass across the goal-mouth, when he was left unguarded.
Local fans were twitching nervously in their seats with the score 3-1. At 5.10 Bill Mabbett, who had been outlucked time and time again in front of Howard, took a pass from Lewis and Burkholder to score. Jewett from Taylor and Clement evened the count at the 8 minute mark.
With Owen Sound tiring, the Red Wing combination machine began to roll. Ross picked the top corner to put the home team in front and Jewett from Minton made the score 5-3.
Stouffville marksmen swept in to score seven times in the last period as the young netminder gave way after an earlier standout performance. Jewett, with Campbell added two each, with Campbell, Sellers and Clement scoring the remainder.
McCaulym took advantage of an ease-up in the Stouffville attack as the period ended and caught the lower corner, to score the final goal for Owen Sound.
The second game of the series will be played in Owen Sound on Thursday night. The locale for the third game, if necessary, has not yet been decided, but would probably be Barrie.
The officials in Saturday’s game were “Squeak” Morrison of Oshawa and Chas. Webster, formerly of Stouffville.

LONDON OR ST. MIKE’S MAY BE NEXT OPPOSITION
Up until press time Wednesday no definite word was available as to Stouffville’s next opposition in the O.H.A. Junior ‘B’ hockey playdowns. There are eight teams left in the running. Windsor dropped out today. The remaining clubs are Kingston Vics, Danforth Byers, Upper CanadaCollege, St Mike’s, Welland, London, Hamilton and Stouffville. RED WINGS TAKE THIRD GAME 10-3 TO OUST OWEN SOUND FROM JR. ‘B’ HOCKEY PLAYOFFS
After tucking away a two goal lead in the second period, Stouffville Red Wings smothered Owen Sound with a barrage of six more counters in the last period, to win 10-3, in the third game of their best-of-three O.H.A. Junior ‘B’ hockey playoffs, in Owen Sound on Tuesday night.
Five of the last period goals scored by the Red Wings, flicked the red light inside of seven minutes. Billy Howard, youthful netminder for the Sound, proved a stumbling block in the early part of the game, as he did in Stouffville but Bun Sellers‘s fifth goal, just after the third period got under way brought on the final collapse of the home team’s rearguard and left Howard to face the Stouffville rushes practically alone. Norm Stunden turned in a sparkling effort in the Red Wing net, and came up with some crowd-roaring stops, in the first two periods.
Bun Sellers, Skip Taylor, Bruce MacMillan and Gord Lewis led the Red Wings with two goals each with Keith Jewett and Doug Ross counting one each. Ray McAllen turned the hat trick for Owen Sound, scoring all three goals.
Two fights featured the third period with referee Maurice Walsh twice handing out majors to John Atkinson of the Wings. Johnny Lumley of the Merks was given a major and a match misconduct for his part in the two fistic encounters while Bruce McMillan of the Wings also drew a match misconduct.
We were much impressed with Owen Sound’s fine sports arena. Equipped with artificial ice, the place accommodates 2300 people, 1800 seats and five hundred standing. The arena was built in 1938 at the cost of $75,000. This is certainly a far cry from the cost of such a building today.
The talk of protest by the local Junior Club following last Thursday’s wild first period brawl at Owen Sound was not carried through. Convener Bruce Clark, in a communicant with O.H.A. officials was advised that the local team did not have sufficient grounds for protest, and certainly not enough to have the game disallowed. The trouble arose when Coach Burlington of the Owen Sound team went out on the ice during the fight, and was alleged to have shoved a Stouffville player. Referee Beatty was asked by the Stouffville management to have Burlington removed from the bench and this he refused. While admitting that the referee had full power ti have the Owen Sound coach removed, the O.H.A. could do little more than reprimand one of the representatives for slackness.
So far as a sloppy job of refereeing went, Owen Sound were as much put out over the situation as Stouffville. In fact the poor job was more of a backfire to them, as they had requested the O.H.A. to send a referee not too far distant, for fear of having too small a gate receipt to meet the costs. The O.H.A. expressed real regret at the “farce” which was allowed, and promised two top men from Toronto for the third game.
The O.H.A. has decided this season to make awards to the most valuable player on every club in the association. Last year the various clubs picked the “stars” from only the junior ‘B’ and ‘C’ and these met in an East-West playoff. However, this has been discarded. These players names will be engraved on an O.H.A. trophy and will be recorded in the OHA annual book. While last year’s plan gave the most valuable players a chance to show in front of the scouts this plan should prove an incentive for all players to hustle whether they are from a junior ‘D’ or a senior ‘A’ club. Minton represented Stouffville on the all-star team last year, and his name is listed in the O.H.A, year book. BIG SERIES FOR MARKHAM THIS WEEK
The Millionaires meet one of the toughest teams in the Intermediate ‘A’ series on Saturday night at the Oshawa Arena in the second game of their two out of three playoff with Collingwood Shipbuilders. The first game was played at Collingwood last Monday evening and Markham took the opener by a 5-3 score.
The surprising Collingwood Shipbuilders upset the classy Penetang Canadians in their group playoff after Penetang had almost completed the entire group schedule without a defeat. They knocked off the large centres Barrie and Iris, who because of population must play Senior ‘B’ hockey.
The Markham-Collingwood winner will leave eight Intermediate ‘A’ teams to fight it out for the Ontario Intermediate ‘A’ title and the right to proceed into the Eastern Canadian championship which gets under way at Maple Leaf gardens on April 14th. This is a new innovation being sponsored by the O.H.A. this year and the Millionaires are making no secret of the fact that they are out to represent Ontario in this classic. There are several song clubs left in the running such as Welland-Crowland Bisons, Port Colbourne, Preston Vets and the Collingwood Shipbuilders. MILLIONAIRES TIE VARSITY BLUES 3-3
It was a surprising crew of pucksters that Markham tossed at Ace bailey’s Varsity Blue last Friday night at Varsity Arena. The Millionaires without Jack Watson, Bob Bangay, Harry Milroy and Austie Baker outplayed the College Champions most of the route and sent a couple of hundred staunch supporters home singing the praises of their favourite team. They were just about the greatest hockey players that ever laced skates in a Markham dressing room and they gave all they had against tremendous odds. Varsity out-numbered their country guests by five players and the College boys were playing on the home rink, which is a heated arena with article ice. Soon after the game started Fred Scott retired with another bang on his already broken nose, and you could have cut the gloom in the Markham section with a shovel. Medical attention however, soon put Fred back in the game and Markham settled away with a determined fighting nine that just wouldn’t lay down.
For Markham all the players deserve a lot of credit on their fine showing, but the Scott brothers and Dick Perry saved the day with some really clever blue line work. Varsity Blues leave for Boston next weekend to play Dartmouth University for the North American College title. MILLIONAIRE SMOTHER PARRY SOUND
Markham advanced to the next round of the Ontario Intermediate ‘A’ playoffs by virtue of two easy wins over Parry Sound. The Millionaires outplayed Parry Sound by a wide margin, winning the game by a score 5-1 score. The Oshawa game was not the type of sparkling hockey that features most playoff hockey, and the Parry Sound team elected to protect goalie Cole who replaced the harassed Ran Forder.
The Millionaires took the lead early in the first period on a neat solo effort by Jack Watson, and Bob Lawrie made it 2-0 before the period ended as he picked up Harry Midroy’s pass and coasted in from right wing. Bob Bangay and George Rumney were sent to the cooler in the opening session for minor penalties.
The second period saw little change in the complexion of the game and Bob Lawrie counted his second from Austie Baker and George Stray, making 4-0 at the fifteen minute mark of the period ended to register their first goal of the series.
In the third period harry Milroy counted the lone tally from Bob Lawrie and Fred Scott and the series ended with Dick Perry serving a minor penalty, plus a ten minute misconduct for calling Referee Mceachren some fancy names.

The Newmarket sports scribe urges the consideration of an artificial ice arena somewhere in the district to serve the needs of such centres as Newmarket, Unionville, Markham and Stouffville. Your local columnist agrees that North York could surely support one such an arena. The question of where, who and how, however, bring on real debates. Such an arena would have to seat 1500 to 2000 people to be a paying proposition. The Owen Sound Arena which is one of the finest in the smaller class, seats 1800. Such an undertaking would cost a minimum of $80,000, of which amount $30,000 would be required fir the ice plant.
The revenue to be received by a big arena must be carried on through the summer months, as well as the hockey season.Even artificial ice hockey would only keep such a place operating six months out of twelve, which would not pay for itself.
It has been suggested by certain district Lions that the Lions Club of this zone enter into a joint effort to erect an arena. It is hardly likely that any such municipality would attempt such an undertaking, nor would a majority of ratepayers agree to it.
Present day costs make such a proposition prohibitive at present.
As matters stand, Oshawa and Barrie arenas stand to pocket a nice tidy sum each year for playoff games and practice time. Scarcely a season asses e or more teams from the district feature in the playoffs. AURORA OUSTED IN OVERTIME STRUGGLE
The hockey feud betwixt Stouffville and Aurora was carried to Th. bitter end last week, when a considerable number of Stouffville fans made a trip to Oshawa, to root lustily for Gananoque in their victory over Aurora in the Junior ‘C’ semi-finals.
Gananoque eliminated Aurora in two straight, 8-6 and 5-4 (overtime) on Friday night. Aurora were much the tidier team around the net, but just didn’t have any horseshoes when it came to scoring. The team from Gananoque was much below the calibre of that eliminated by Stouffville in last year’s semi-finals, and would have proved an easy mark for the year’s Red Wings.
Aurora made a determined bid to keep the series alive, and did force the second game into overtime. This overtime went scoreless for seven minutes, before the easterners finally copped the winning goal. The Aurora coach threw caution to the wind when he pulled Eric Smith out of the net with two minutes still remaining, and shoved on six forwards but the move availed nothing. DATES FOR FISHING SAME AS 1947
In view of the fact that many enquiries have been received concerning the open season for angling during 1948, the Department of Lands and Forests announces that there will be no change in the open seasons this year. The speckled trout season will open as usual on May 1, and progressively thereafter for the other species of game fish the opening dates will be the same as during 1947.
In the case of bass, it is considered most inadvisable to open the season earlier that July 1, because the spawning period is seldom over prior to this date, and destruction of the bass while on its nest is disastrous to the new hatch. MARKHAM MILLIONAIRES REACH THE FINALS
Markham’s Millionaires had to go all out to eliminate Crowland’s Bisons in two straight games. The Bisons resisted stubbornly before bowing out 2-1 at Welland and 3-2 at Oshawa. In both games goalie Eddie Bishop for Crowland and Bob Bangay or Markham were important cogs in the hockey machinery. Bob Bangay scored the winning counters in both games and the ex-Guelph goalie kicked out rubber from all angles for the Bisons.
In the game at Welland, the Millionaires outshot the Bisons 36-14 but Markham could only cash two shots. The first goal of the game was scored on a screened shot by Harry Milroy after six minutes of play and it wasn’t until seventeen minutes had been played in the second period that the red light shone again. This was for the Bison’s tying counter and it was shot from behind the Markham goal. The puck was deflected past goalie Harper off Austie Baker’s shin pads. Credit for the goal was given to Kodatsky. The teams set a fast pace in the last frame and the crowd of two thousand up on the edge of their seats. At the seventeen minute mark, Charlie Nesbitt shot from close range and Bishop partly blocked the shot but the puck fell behind the goalie and Bob Bangay poked in the winning goal.
The return game at Oshawa last Thursday had all the thrills of a Major League classic and the huge crowd was given many anxious moments as the play shot back and forth. The Crowland lad fought gamely to remain in the hunt fir Intermediate ‘A’ honours and were fine losers. Crowland took the lead after three minutes of play on a shot from Venebles but George Rumney ties the score three minutes later on a pass from George Stark. Cupola put the Bisons ahead at the halfway mark and the Crowland team carried this lead until well on in the third period. Just when it looked as if it was going to be impossible to dent the twine behind goalie Bishop, Fred Scott brought joy to the hearts of the Markham fans as he moved in from the blueline and sunk a low shot in the corner of the net. Bob Bangay broke loose from his own blueline and neatly deked goalie Bishop on the short side for the winner. In both games, Bob Milencoff star left winger sat in the penalty box and watched the Millionaires score the winning goals. For Crowland Milencoff, Kodatsky and Bishop were the pick of a well balanced club.

Nick Bangay, brother of Bob Bangay, sparkplug of the Markham Intermediates, has returned from his first season of pro hockey with Philadelphia, and was on hand at Markham’s Saturday game.
Here is what Guelph is doing to meet sport demands in that city: Constructing a $300,000 arena, installing a floodlight baseball system costing about $35,000 and will soon build a $70,000 swimming pool.
The antics of the Boston hockey fans have nothing on the Georgetown-Markham series. At Boston, in the last game with the Leafs, the fans pushed over a section of the screening. At Georgetown on Monday night, an entire section of the boards collapsed on the weight of the shoving crowd. The game was delayed some minutes, while the fans were scooped back off the ice, and the arena repair man had the section of the fence repaired. 58 MINTES OF SCORELESS HOCKEY ON SATURDAY
Two minutes to go in the last period of a scoreless hockey game before a packed house. Both playing wide open hockey, the style that keeps the audience in a continuous uproar. That was the game in Oshawa, Saturday night, between Markham Millionaires and Georgetown Raiders.
It was the Raiders who got the break in that last two minutes of play and it was the Raiders who took home a 1-0 victory, along with a 2-1 lead in games in the O.H.A. Intermediate ‘A’ final series.
The first twenty minutes of this spectacular battle saw the Markham Millionaires turn on the heat, going all out for a goal.
Lawrie, Milroy and Watson were the attacking trio sent out by the Markham coach, and they stormed the bastion of Rhodes in the Raider’s twine time again and again, but he held fast.
The tables were almost turned then when Patterson led the Raiders on a two man break towards the Millionaires‘ goal. He flipped the puck over after he had faked the goalie out of position. His teammate however let the puck roll off the end of his stick, and the chance was lost.
The second period was a perfect cast of the first, and the way the teams were playing, they could have been at it yet.
Two penalties were handed out in the middle frame. Gibson of Georgetown got the first, and Fred Scott of Markham the second.
While there were many close calls in the middle frame, Milroy of Markham who supplied the closest of the night. He roared in, pulled the goalie aside and shot for the short corner. His drive caught the goal-post and the puck rolled along from one post to the other, and refused to go in.
The third period provided more thrills, as the squads realized that one goal could very well win the game.
Finally the puck was shot into the corner, and all forwards broke over the blueline, Beaumont got it in the right corner, passed it quickly behind the net to Storey in the left-hand corner, who in turn flipped in front of the bewildered and besieged Harper.
Gibson was standing in front of the net when that puck came out from the corner, and was deflected off a skate. ATHLETIC CLUB PREPARES FOR ELECTION NIGHT, APRIL 19TH
At a meeting of the Stouffville Athletic Club held in the Municipal Hall on Monday evening, the following members were appointed as a nominating committee to bring a tentative slate of officers for the election meeting, April 19th. The committee is, Clayt. Baker, chairman; Elmer Daniels, Ken Laushway, Murray Holden and Don Lewis.
The Athletic Club is an organization composed of interested citizens, who have banded together into a organization to promote sports in the town throughout the year. The organization belongs to the people of Stouffville, is not a closed club, but is most anxious to have the support and assistance, both in its offices and work, of all the citizens possible.
A detailed financial statement of the club’s activities at the Monday’s meeting, a hard and fast program will not be set up until election night, at which time, the club hopes to see every sports-interested citizen on hand.

BLACK HAWK CAPTAIN AND FORMER LEAF GOALIE TALK TO LIONS AND HOCKEY GUESTS
“Red” Hamill, captain of Chicago Black Hawks of the NHL and Phil Stein, ex-goalie of the Toronto Maple Leafs, were the guest speakers at the Stouffville Lion Club regular meeting on Monday night, when the club entertained the members of the Stouffville Junior ‘B’ Hockey Club.
Big broad-shouldered Hamill who captained the Hawks for the last three seasons, told in a most entertaining way of his rise from the open-air rinks of Toronto to professional hockey. Getting his start under Ed Wildey’s Young Rangers, he moved up quickly to Sudbury’s Memorial Cup finalist squad of a few years back, then to the Boston Bruins, to several American league outfits and then to the Chicago Black Hawks in 1942.
He told in an amusing style, what players and officials have to contend with in Chicago, where the fans are noted for throwing debris on the ice and disrupting games more than anywhere else in the NHL circuit. “everything comes down from the third balcony from telephone receivers to dead rats”, he said.
Questioned as to the change in Black Hawk fortunes when Chas. Connacher took over the coaching duties from Johnny Gottseleig, he stated that the former coach was too easy with the boys, but that Connacher really “drove them”.
Phil Stein, who is a resident of Leaside and Athletic Director of that town told of his ups and downs in hockey monied ranks. He played with nearly every team in the American Association.
The guest speakers were introduced by Lion Ted Edwards, and a vote of thanks was tendered them by Lion Fred Button. He then proposed a toast to the visiting Junior ‘B’ Club, which was responded to by Lion Bruce Clark, secretary of the club.
Entertainment was provided by Al Harvey, of stage and radio, and Ross Edwards, whistler. President Lion Don Chadwick presided.

STOUFFVILLE SOFTBALLERS TAKE OVER TOP SPOT IN INTER-COMMUNITY GROUP
Stouffville Softball nine came up with another win on Friday night, a 13-6 drubbing to Greenback, to take over the top spot in the standing of the inter-community league. The boys are really doing wonders for their first entry in the mushball circuit.
The third and sixth innings were the high spots in Friday’s game, Stouffville banging out four runs in each of these innings. Jack Epworth started the game on the Stouffville mound without a warm-up, having arrived late, and found himself unable to continue beyond the first frame. Clem Ellis took over for the balance of the game.
Wally Nicholson was the big gun with the hickory. He collected a triple, a double and a single. Jack Epworth also had a triple and Shorty Morden a double. Baird and Till were the best for Greenbank, with two hits each. COOK IN RARE FORM AS INTERMEDIATES DOWN AURORA 7-1
Earl Cook was in good form on Monday night, as Stouffville Intermediates trounced the Aurora team 7-1. Cook blanked the Yonge St. nine for five innings, allowing only two men to get as far as second base. McGhee finally broke the goose egg in the fifth and romped home with Aurora’s only run on a hit by Simmons. Lorne Schell was brought in to relieve Stouffville’s playing coach for the windup of the game.
Stouffville scored twice in the initial innings, once in the second, three in the fifth, and one in the seventh. Minton, Ken Schell, Lorne Schell, Miller and Nicholson all shared the local hitting.
Stouffville Girls Softball team dropped their scheduled game with Aurora last week. High spot in the 16-9 Aurora win, from a Stouffville viewpoint, we the grand-slam homer of Helen Goudie with the bases loaded. Jolly Doolittle was the king-pin in the Aurora lineup. Second baseman Doolittle handled the entire three outs in two separate innings, and was dangerous at bat as well.
It was expected that the new kiddies’ play equipment being place in memorialPark by the Lions Club will be fully erected this week. A group of mothers in town are arranging to give some supervision to the kiddies each day, a fact that will be much appreciated by the Parks Commission. The local beauty sport is becoming more and more popular as a picnic spot and everyday playground, and any efforts on the part of the public to help with the work of overseeing is indeed acceptable. OSHAWA HERE FRIDAY NIGHT
Baseball fans are expected to flock to the local ball park in droves this Friday night for the visit of the classy Oshawa Junior team to Stouffville. hRe Oshawa club is playing in class ‘A’ ball in the lakeshore group and have been topping their local group. They have a strong pitching staff, and should prove interesting competition for the Stouffville Intermediates.
Earl Cook’s boys will be all out to avenge the defeat at the hands of this ball team in the Sunderland tournament last week. EARL’S COOK BOYS PUT UP SUPERB PERFORMANCE IN FIRST ROUND OF HOLIDAY BALL TOURNAMENT
Stouffville Intermediate were full value for their 5-1 win the first round of the Sunderland’s baseball tournament on the holiday in which they took second money. With exception of two minor errors, the fielding and pitching left little to be wished for. The victory over Sunderland was even more gratifying since the northerners were bolstered by southpaw Harper of the senior Viaduct league in Toronto, a member of the Mahers club. He was recently ruled ineligible to play for Port Perry in the Tri-County League. However Harper had poor support in spots and could not be discredited by the loss.
Lorne Schell was “on the Beam” all the way, and particularly in the clinches. On two o/c casinos via the strikeout route, when Sunderland had men in scoring position . He struck out eight men and gave up on lie two walks. The Sunderland hurler turned in only two strikeouts.
The game was a tightly played affair up until the third innings, when Sunderland committed two errors while Stouffville came up with hits by Raxlin, the Schell brothers and Procenko, to score four runs. St John poled a long one into left field in the sixth for Sunderland, followed by Farrell with a hit to score his teammates. However, Farrell was tagged out stealing second, Harper flied out and Welsh struck out, to put out the fire. This completed the scoring in the game.
It was a crowd-pleasing contest all the way, with good pitching, plenty of hitting and good fielding to back it up. Murray Holden and Lou Raxlin collected two hits each for Stouffville, while St John, was the only Sunderland batter to hit twice.
Oshawa 9 Stouffville 3
In the nightcap final, the Oshawa team which downed Little Britain in the second round in the afternoon, proved too much for the local nine, and laid them low, 9-3, to take first money.
The Oshawa squad is quite a fancy aggregation playing Junior ‘A’ ball in the Lakeshore league south of Stouffville. Mroczek who hurled their game against Stouffville, was a tough nut for the local batters, eight of whom went down swinging. He allowed six hits.
Stouffville tossed in three pitchers in an effort to stop the flow of Oshawa runs, Lefty Baggs started, was relieved by Orv. Rouse, who in turn gave way for Earl Cook. Oshawa scored at least once in every innings with the exception of the last one, and while they failed to get more than seven hits, a number of local errors, turned into runs. O’Connor for Oshawa hit safely three times, while Mroczek and Bienkowski cracked out two singles each.
Stouffville Girls’ softball team dropped their league game with Elgin Mills, 7-1 last week. Lois Baker came through with the locals’ lone tally.
Considerable improvement was made in the hardware diamond in the park this week with addition of quite a few loads of clay loam for the mound. It is expected that more work will be done to the infield when a machine is available to skin the base-paths and inner outfield.
A number of local ladies made a start last week at supervising the playground in memorial park. The overseers kept a record of the number of children present each day, and looked after the needs of the smaller tots, and kept a close watch to present accidents among the older ones. Between thirty-five and fifty children were in the park during each period the ladies were in attendance. Mrs. Wm. Sanders has been keeping the records and can be thanked for much of the organization. THREE HOME RUNS IN LAST INNINGS TO MUCH FOR AURORA GIRLS’ TEAM
Three home runs in the seventh innings for Stouffville girls’ softball team, were enough to defeat the top-flight Aurora girls here on Monday night. H. Fockler, A. Jennings and L. Baker were the four-base hitters, Stouffville scored no less than eleven runs in the seventh frame, before Aurora managed to put three away. Helen Snowball crossed the plate with four runs in the fourth, the sixth, and seventh innings. Aurora led by three runs until the local girls struck home in the seventh. J. Doolittle crossed the plate three times for Aurora with McKay and Patterned collecting two runs each.
Stouffville girls will go to Markham this Friday night, with their next home game here on Monday night. TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE AFFILIATES WITH O.B.A.
It has been decided that the Tri-County will affiliate with the Ontario Baseball Association in Intermediate ‘B’ and ‘C’. This decision was reached was reached at a special meeting in Manilla last week.
This year the team to enter the O.B.A. must be the league winner NOT an all star team. In O.B.A. competition teams from towns under 5000 population play in Intermediate C. Should Lindsay win rTi-County it would have to enter Intermediate B and the second place team could still enter in Intermediate C. Lindsay is the only town over the 5000 mark in the Tri-County League. Stouffville is almost certain to have an entry in thin league next summer. They will possibly meet this years ‘C’ winner in the Ontario playoffs. INTERMEDIATES LAST INNING RALLY FALLS ONE RUN SHORT AGAINST OSHAWA
A last inning’s rally by Stouffville Intermediates fell one run short against Oshawa on Friday night, and the Motor City boys took the contest 11-10. Stouffville built up a substantial 6-1 margin in the early innings of the game, only to have the roof fall in the fourth, when the visitors batted the circuit and collected ten runs. That ended the scoring until the final frame. Four runs were scored and two men were left stranded on first and second, but not quite far enough to prevent the centre fielder from gathering it in. That was the final putout.
Lorne Schell started for Stouffville, and had smooth sailing until the fourth, when two walks, three errors, and four hits allowed the Oshawa team to score a total of ten runs. Following this outburst, Earl Cook was brought into the game, and the team settled away to hold the visitors scoreless for the balance of the game. O’Connor started for Oshawa on the mound, but gave way midway through the game to Mroczek, their young wizard who was so successful against Stouffville in the Sunderland tournament the week previous. Mroczek took over the pitching with some reluctance, as he was slated to hurl against Cobourg the following night, and was afraid of injuring his arm. He faltered in the last innings, and was touched up for three walks and two hits.
It was definitely not the night for Stouffville hitters, and only one man on the team managed to register more than a single safety. That was the team’s leading hitter, Ken Schell. Seven local batters fanned, but only two Oshawa players were called out on strikes.
One of the largest crowds of the season, was on hand and despite the loss, they enjoyed the contest. Plenty of hitting and base-running are always the fans delight. MEN’S SOFTBALL TEAM WINDS UP SCHEDULE ON TOP OF LEAGUE
Stouffville Men’s Softball team trounced Leasdale 13-8 on Thursday night, to keep their place on top of the group. The local came through with all their runs in the first three innings. Dan Finlayson, Stouffville catcher, crossed the plate with three counters.
From the third frame on, the game settled down into a tight affair. Leaskdale counted six in the first two innings, and one run in each of the last two. Their hitting was well balanced through the entire team.
Jack Epworth set down three batters on strikeouts, while the northern hurler downed a like number.
On Monday night in Uxbridge, Stouffville was awarded a schedule game after awarded a schedule game after just one innings of play. The homebrews scored eight runs in their half of the starting innings, and held Uxbridge scoreless. The game wound up the schedule. Playoffs are not definitely settled yet, but at the moment it would look like, Stouffville, Goodwood, Leasdale and Uxbridge Farmers in the four play off positions. AURORA OPPOSITION NOT TOO STRONG AS LOCALS WIN 16-8
Aurora provided little opposition for Stouffville Intermediates in their game here on Wednesday night. However, the Stouffvillites, finding the going so easy, played anything but the brand of ball they are capable of allowing Aurora to push across eight runs while they collected 16.
Stouffville’s grand slam came right in the innings. The team batted completely around and wound up with ten runs. Aurora was plagued with errors, and coupled with a couple of walks and several solid hits, the rout was on.
Lorne Schell started on the mound for the home team, but with a lead of 11-3, he was given a rest, and Lefty Baggs took over, finishing the game. Simmons and Stunden were the Aurora pitchers pounded so freely.
Ken Schell kept his battling average well to the front, clouting four hits in four trips to the plate, a perfect night; Wally Nicholson had three for four; Minton, Procenko, Miller and Cook, two for four.
The crowd was not too elated with the showing of either team, and hoped for stiffer competition in future.

PARENTS PLEASE!!
Our memorial Park is looking at its finest, and it is the best equipped it has been in years, for the enjoyment of sport fans, small youngsters and picnic parties. This has been done at considerable expense, both to the local taxpayer, the Lions Club, and the Athletic Club.
However there are still youngsters who have no regard for either the enjoyment of others to the rights of private property, and as a result considerable destruction of property still continues in out town park
It is regrettable that Stouffville taxpayers are having to pay for repairs to damaged property caused by their own children. A closer check on the park is being kept, and any children found damaging property there will be barred from the use of the playground. One such case has already arisen. It is hoped that there will be no more. The Commission asks that parents help in this matter.
The park and its equipment is placed there for your enjoyment — use it — don’t destroy it.
Stouffville Intermediates added another player to their roster last week with the signing of Bud Watson, snappy shortstop from Unionville. Bud will be remembered by sport fans as the blonde lad who was one of the mainstays of Unionville’s Junior hockey team last winter.
It would appear that the local Athletic Club have a problem on their hands in the lack of ball coaches. With a Midget entry of enthusiastic players ready to go against Newmarket for the right to continue into the O.B.A. Midget playdowns, the aggregation finds themselves without a coach or manager. Murray Holden, who was at the helm at the beginning of the season was recruited some time ago for the Intermediate team and Joe Oulette states that he finds the pressure of business too great to be able to continue an active support of the team. Something needs to be done immediately if these Midget players are to be assured the chance to go into the playoffs which they have earned. LEAGUE-LEADING GIRLS LOSE TO STOUFFVILLE TEAM
Last week the girl’s softball team from Hart Manufacturing, Aurora, lost their first baseball game to Stouffville by a score of 13-10 after winning four in a row. Their opposing teams have been Elgin Mills, Stouffville and Markham. Last Thursday and Friday the girls won two straight from Markham. In Aurora on Thursday they defeated them 18-14 and traveled to Markham to defeat them 10-8. TORONTO RINK WINS SIMPSON TROPHY
Mrs Groves’ rink from Toronto won the Simpson trophy in the Ladies’ Bowling tournament here on Thursday evening. Mrs. Cole from Agincourt took second prize, Mrs. Wright, Oshawa, third, and Mrs McCutcheon , Oshawa, fourth. This was the largest tournament in years, 19 rinks participating. The next event will be a mixed trebles tournament on Civic Holiday, Aug. 2nd. Members are asked to notify the Games Committee if they intend to play. RICHMOND HILL O.B.A. ENTRIES ARE SUSPENDED
Richmond Hill midget and bantam O.B.A. entries have been suspended from further competition and are out for the season, it was announced by group convener Leonard Simmons. The Hill youngsters failed to keep their playing obligations and in most cases failed to notify the home teams concerned that they would not be appearing. Markham will thus have a clear road to the O.B.A. bantam series, and Stouffville and Newmarket will clash for the midget honours. Markham, Aurora and Stouffville represent the district in juvenile, junior and intermediate playdowns. GIRLS WIND UP SCHEDULE IN SECOND PLACE
Stouffville Girls’ Softball team won their last scheduled game on Monday night, downing Markham fair sex to the tune of 13-2. A postponed game at Markham remains to be played this week but should not affect Stouffville’s position in second place.
In Monday’s night contest, Lois Baker came through with a four-base clout, and was typical of her teammates who displayed a little too much power at the bat for the Markham girls.
A gathering of the team representatives will likely be held this week to determine the playoff schedule. “PORKY” SCHELL’S TRIPLE IN LAST INNING WINS OWN GAME
A triple into centre field in the last innings on Wednesday night won a 10-9 ball game against Oshawa. The locals were four runs down going into the final frame. Manager Ken Laushway started off the inning pinch hitting for Roy Ward. He looped a short one just over second, which was followed with hits by Procenko, and Rouse. The hit by Rouse drove in Procenko and Laushway. Ken Schell flied out, while Minton, Nicholson and Miller loaded the bases, when Schell came through with his resounding three-bagger.
“Lefty” Bagg started on the mound for Stouffville, and struck out three men in four and a half innings and gave up seven hits, when he was relieved by “Porky” Schell. Errors but Bagg in difficulty in the fifth and he retired. Gilbert went the distance for Oshawa.
Oshawa was leading by 5-4 when a Oshawa runner was trapped between third base and home, catcher Schell for Stouffville finally running him down and tagging him. However, the Oshawa manager charged that Miller, Stouffville’s third baseman blocked the runner when he was not in possession of the ball, and the man was called safe.
One of the largest crowds of the season witnessed the game, and thoroughly enjoyed the grandstand finish put up by the home team. LEAGUE-LEADING SUNDERLAND TEAM SWAMPED 11-3
Stouffville Intermediates swamped the Tri-County league-leaders 11-3 in an exhibition game in the northern municipality on Monday evening. Earl Cook and Porky Schell shared the pitching for Stouffville and struck out eight of the opposing Sunderland batters. Six Stouffville men went down swinging.
After two strikeouts in the first innings, Stouffville opened up with a barrage of hits by Rouse, Schell and Miller, and scored three runs after the two were out. They added one in the second, four in the third, one in the fifth and one in each of the last now innings.
Sunderland scored all their runs in the second and third innings, Anderson and Beaton being the hitters. Miller had a big night at bat for Stouffville, getting three hits in four tries. Ken Schell and Orv. Rouse each had two for four.
Sunderland was short-handed to open the game, and Nick Procenko was loaned by Stouffville to fill the catcher’s position until the Sunderland man arrived. STOP THE PRESS!!
Joe Oulette has been appointed manager and coach of the Bantam and Peewee baseball teams, and all boys 15 years of age and under who are interested in baseball will please report to him as soon as possible. The Athletic Club are cravenly very grateful to Joe for taking on this important job, as they are satisfied he will do everything in his power to see that the young lads are given every chance to make real ball players of themselves. Many thanks, Joe.

Stouffville Bantams dropped an exhibition game with Markham on Monday night in the southern village.
Forty-five yards of loam have been used on the hardball diamond in the local park in an effort to smooth up the field and put the mound in better shape. A power mower was brought in last week and cut the field south of the park street. Work is going to be done shortly on this field by the Athletic Club for another diamond next spring.
Stouffville Midgets are slated to advance against Newmarket for the group honours and the right to go into the O.B.A. Midget playdowns. Word from Newmarket suggests that a three-out-of-five or four-out-seven series might be played since there are only the two teams in the running. Ted Edwards has consented to take over the coaching and managing of the team, and put the boys through a workout in readiness for the coming contest.
Since our announcement last week that Watson of Unionville had signed up with the Stouffville Intermediates a mixup has developed that will deny Stouffville the use of this player. It appears that Watson had already signed a certificate for Markham Juveniles and was under the impression that he could play for either team. However, when the local management was informed of the state of affairs they immediately dropped the signing of this addition.
It appears that Stouffville alone is making the summer pay off by not being attached to any particular baseball group, and playing only exhibition games until the Ontario playoffs begin. The boys here have kept up two games a week and one practice for some time. The big share of responsibility for this job has fallen on the shoulders of Ken Laushway. He alone can tell you the string of phone calls sometimes required to arrange for a visiting team to play here. Down at Markham, the Juvenile team has not played in a month and practiced little. Over at Aurora the same thing has happened to the Junior Team, where no games have been played for some weeks. We understand a meeting has been arranged for the holiday next Monday, between Aurora Juniors and Acton Intermediates. TRI-COUNTY PLAYOFF SCHEDULE IS OUT
The schedule oft TrI-County playoffs is out for the East and West Sections Series ‘A’. The date depends on the Sunderland-Sutton game which ended Wednesday night in a draw and has to be played again.
If Sutton wins, the West Section will be postponed one week to permit Sunderland and Bolster to play off for first place, and Sutton to play last week’s disputed game at Beaverton. Should Sutton win from Beaverton they will tie with them for fourth place and consequently another replay will be required.
Stouffville, Greenbank, Goodwood and Uxbridge Junior Farmers are opening the playoff clash this week in the current softball race. HITS “SCARCE AS HEN’S TEETH,” WHEN LOCALS SQUEEZE OUT TORONTO EARLSCOURT 4-3
Baseball hits were scarce as Stouffville Intermediates eked out a 4-3 win over Earlscourt Seniors here on Friday night. “Porky” Schell got the call to start on the mound for Stouffville and gave up only two hits in four innings, one of them a homer by Small. Small’s four base hit was one of the longest poled in the local park in some time, and cleared the left fence by plenty. There were no players on the base paths at that time.
Earl Cook went to he local mound to hurl the last two frames, and sat the Torontonians down hitless. Schell struck out two batters and three went down swinging before the offering of Cook.
Roach who went to the mound for Earlscourt struck out six Stouffville men, and dished up a fast ball from his six-foot frame that baffled the local boys plenty. Roach, incidentally, has just signed a contract to take with the Brooklyn Dodgers.
Stouffville were trailing 3 to 1 going into the last evening. Ken Schell opened the last innings , flying out, Miller followed with a resounding single, worked his way to third and came in on a fly ball by Nicholson. Polly Minton lined a 325ft. triple into centre field and scored with the tying run when Ross Wideman, playing his first game in several weeks, lined a hit to deep left field to deep left field. Manager Ken Laushway stepped up to pinch-hit at this point, and with three balls on him, swung wildly at the fourth ball, diverting the catcher’s throw, and helping Wideman work his way around to third. Before the next pitch was delivered an attempted “pickoff” at third went wild, and Wideman scored the winning run standing up.
Earlscourt hurlers gave up a total of five hits. The game was late in getting underway and the crowd was small when “play ball” was called. The visitors had car trouble resulting in the late start. A return game is being here this Wednesday evening.

ORVAL DREWERY PRESIDENT OF CURLING CLUB
At the annual meeting of the Stouffville Curling Club, Orval Drewery was elected president, with Everton Smith , immediate past; Donald Hodgins, vice-president, and Walter Brillinger, secretary-treasurer.
Biggest stumbling block to the club is the engaging of an ice-maker. An advertisement has been inserted in this paper in an effort to fill the gap, but so far there has been no takers.
While their is an enthusiastic group who want to operate the club, this same group do not believe they receive enough co-operation from the local curlers who attend many outside bonspiels. These curlers, who enjoy the visiting, as all curlers do, give little more than their membership fee to the home club and of course through this affiliation, they gain the right, as bonafide members to compete in the tournaments, according to one member.
Stouffville has had a good curling club in past years, and could have again, but the full co-operation of all curlers in keeping the local club in operation, is a necessity. PETERBORO TEAMS HAVE HOME RINK
After a lapse of six years, Peterboro O.H.A. teams will again play under a home roof this winter. The new Civic Arena has been built at a cost of $40,000, and the wandering Peterboro players, who played “home” games in recent years at Lindsay, Omemee and Lakefield, will operate once more out of that city. There are two senior ‘B’ entries and a Junior ‘B’ Club there.
The arena has a natural ice surface, with a capacity of 2,500 fans. It was built as a secondary rink and will be used exclusively by minor teams a few years hence when the artificial ice memorial Centre, costing probably $400,000, is contacted.
Early in the last year, the covered rink was sold and converted into a dance hall, forcing local teams to take to the road for all games, though the city provided a dozen open-air rinks for the smaller boys.
George Smith is still hard at work on his new Stouffville Orioles Baseball Intermediates for next summer. According to George, Ted Edwards has agreed to assist the local coach with the Tri-County entry. Several of last year’s Stouffville nine are, according to George, anxious to play for the new outfit. TORONTO METEORS WILL NOT BE PLAYING IN THIS GROUP
In conversation with secretary Geo. Panter of the O.H.A. this Tuesday, The Tribune learned that the Lindsay entry in the local hockey group is not Bill Thoms’ Seniors, as was at first believed. According to Mr.Panter, the Toronto Meteors have no connection with Lindsay, and are merely using the arena there for home ice.
The local group, known as Intermediate Group ‘A’, lists Markham, Stouffville, and Lindsay Intermediate ‘A’ teams, and Bobcaygeon Intermediate ‘B’ club form the group. The only change which might occur before starting time, is the addition of Bell A.C. to the group. Bell A.C. are a senior team using Richmond Hill as home ice. They are listed to play with Toronto Meteors at Lindsay, and the two Peterboro Senior teams, but have baulked at the long traveling distance.
Mr. Panter believes that it may be possible to place the Bell’s in the Stouffville Intermediate group. Such a move would benefit both the group, and the Bell’s, whose extensive traveling would be cut.
Bobcaygeon, the intermediate ‘B’ entry, will receive a bye into the Ontario ‘B’ playdowns, regardless of where they finish in the group standings. However, their games count during the schedule so far as the standing of all the other teams are concerned.

The Clippers are slated to play the general Motors Intermediates Oshawa Mercantile leaders in the local arena this Wednesday night. This will be the opening game of hockey in the arena here, and a bumper crowd is expected out to get a preview of the newly organized Clippers.
Convener of the local hockey group, Ernie Lawrie, Stouffville coach, was assisted at the organization meeting here on Thursday, by Frank Buckland, member of the O.H.A. executive, from Peterboro. genial Frank had no cinch on his hands in bringing the eight-team group, into an amicable schedule. Four senior teams, three intermediate ‘A’ teams and one intermediate ‘B’ team, all able to play on various night, and some baulking at the long travel trips, made for a whale of a straightening out job.
The edition of the Stouffville Clippers official program is expected to be ready for the opening of the schedule. The book contains the pictures of all the players on the team, a history of the local athletic club, and a number of interesting local items. The program will be sold, and a lucky number prize will be given away each night.
Local fans will be pleased with the improvements made in the accommodation for spectators at the local arena. The entire sides of the arena have been floored from end to end , and raised in two tiers. The annoying screen has been removed. The players benches have been rebuilt, and a new box installed for time-keeper and penalty bench. It is estimated that fifteen hundred people can be accommodated with the new setup.
Admission rates will be higher in the local hockey league this season, but Stouffville fans will see their games for the lowest figure in the circuit. In addition it must be remembered that Stouffville s raising from Junior to Intermediate hockey, a fact that should warrant an increase. The admission prices her will be adults 50 cent, children, 35 cent. In Lindsay, the rate is adults 75c, children 50c, while Peterboro fans will pay for adults $1.00 and children 75 cents.
Whenever fans watch a couple of hockey teams play, they seldom think of the sponsors behind the club. But they’re the, paying bills, buying equipment and generally going all out on the financial limb so kids can play organized hockey. Britt (North Bay Nugget) Jessup writes he often bemoaned the lack of sufficient sponsors. But there is another side to the picture too.
“How much appreciation is there by players for sponsors?” he asks.
It’s getting so bad, says Jessup, that players expect not only uniforms and equipment, but personal valets to help them get dressed and undressed.
There’ll be ice this week for the followers of the roaring game, at the local curling rink. Wm. Armstrong is the ice-maker, and with the assistance of brother, Christie during the holiday weekend, got a real start on the job.

UNIONVILLE AND MARKHAM WIN OPENING GAMES
Both Unionville in the O.H.A. Junior ‘C’ and Markham Intermediates came up with wins in their initial league starts on Tuesday night.
Unionville thumped Uxbridge to the tune of 11-1 in Crosby Memorial rink. This game carried a local touch of special interest to Stouffville fans. Playing with Unionville Mutuals are Norm Stunden, in goal, Polly Minton, Bun Sellers and Skippy Taylor, all ex-Stouffville Juniors. In addition the home team presented Bill Boychoff, former Aurora star, and late of the Galt Rockets, Junior ‘A’. Uxbridge Burkholder, former Junior, and Percy Schell, also a local lad.
Markham shut out Toronto Bell A.C. 4-0 in their opener played in Richmond Hill.
Three minor hockey teams will be operated by the Athletic Club here this winter in the Peewee, Bantam and Juvenile classification. The group including the Juvenile entry will be Aurora, Richmond Hill, Markham and Stouffville, according to present plans.
Stouffville will have an entry in the Uxbridge Inter-Community league. Players with the local Intermediate team who may be used occasionally on this entry will be allowed to participate in only three games.
Stouffville Intermediate Hockey Club was preparing to entertain Varsity Seniors to a banquet this Friday night but due to the pressure of examinations, the team management have notified Stouffville that they will have to return home almost immediately the game is over. The local executive regret the fact that the Toronto visitors will be unable to partake of their hospitality. GOALIE HARDING TOO MUCH FOR CLIPPERS AS PETERBORO WIN OPENER 3-1
In an action packed curtain-raiser at the Stouffville Arena on Monday night, Peterboro Petes came from behind in the second period to score three goals, enough to win, while goalie Harding rose to hockey heights in the final frame in keeping out the Clippers.
While the game ad plenty to keep the 700 fans whooping it much of the time, the hockey was a bit scramble for Senior classification.
Bob Lawrie beat Harding from close in on a pass out from Bradbury at 5.51 of the first period, to give Stouffville an early lead.
Play whipped up and down the ice with the Clippers showing a little edge in speedsters. Legrow went in the cooler twice and Creighton once to give the home team a man advantage on three occasions. Hochberg who was one of the smoothest-going gents for the homesters, collected the only local penalty of the period.
Trouble began to brew in the jam session, as the elderPeterboro crew found that continually ruffing Stouffville’s younger players, brought needless penalties to the Clippers. George Rumney committed one foul and brother Jack was given the nod twice.
Mortimer came through to tie the count and then put Peterboro one up. The tying goal skidded up harper’s glove and slipped into the net. Tompkin made it 3-1 as a lucky shot from his stick skidded int he unprotected corner. Kingdon set up the pass for Peterboro’s three goals.
Stouffville stormed the visitors’ fort continually in the last period, but Harding stood firm between the pipes, and thwarted every attempt to score.
Peterboro drew three tripping penalties in the last period, but even with this advantage, Stouffville just couldn’t break down the visitor’s netminder.
The Clipper lineup showed plenty of pepper to the home fans for their first home appearance and should improve as the season progresses.
With five minutes to go, Coach Lawrie pulled goalie Warner out of the net and slipped on another forward as Peterborough was serving a penalty. However, no damage resulted and the strategy failed to click.
Strong advocates of the artificial ice plant for one of the arenas close at hand, have plenty of fuel for argument, the way the weatherman has been treating hockey followers. Such an arena is sure to come eventually, but just how soon is the question.
This from the Toronto Star: John Fryla of the Peterboro Triple Links, a Junior ‘B’ club in the O.H.A., was suspended indefinitely for hitting a player over the head in a game against North Toronto Lions Wednesday night. “Players must realize a hockey stick is not a weapon and suspensions will increase,” said assistant-secretary George Panter. According to the referee’s report, Fryla was struck accidentally by a North Toronto payer who was knocked off balance by a check. Fryla is reported to have come from behind, swung his stick and broke the blade over the player’s head. The player, although not cut, was assisted of the ice and did not return to the game. NEW LEAGUE ADDED TO LOCAL HOCKEY CIRCLE
After several years absence, Stouffville Arena will again resound to the clamours of bush-league hockey fans. The Inter-Community Hockey League which formerly operated at Uxbridge have moved their circuit to Stouffville Arena, where double-headers will be played every Tuesday night.
Teams from Brougham, Pine Orchard, Stouffville, and Uxbridge comprise the group. The following are the officers and rules:
Inter-Community League Officers
Ab. Boake, president; Don Beer, vice-president; Ken Laushway, secretary-treasure; directors, Harvey Acton, Uxbridge; M. Smith, Pine Orchard; Les Wilson, Broughton.
— No player is eligible for league after he has played 3 games with an O.H.A., T.H.L., or ORHA club.
— Each team may sign 18 players, dress 15
— Two goal penalty for being late up to half an hour, then forfeit game.

JUNIOR SKIERS TITLE MEET AT DAGMAR FEB. 26-27
The young fry in the ski world have something big to look forward to this year. It is the Ontario junior provincial championships at Dagmar, just east of Claremont, Feb. 26 and 27, and the first of its kind to be held in this province.
With the approval of both the northern and southern ski zones, the Toronto Ski Club is sponsoring the event, and hopes to lure entrants from the Gatineau and Lake Superior zones. A new slalom hill has been opened at the Glen Major property, and a new downhill run has been cut, suitable for the juniors. To make it a four-way event, a junior jump will be installed.
Skip Taylor, last year with Juniors, and out with Unionville at the start of this years season, and in their games against Uxbridge, is no longer with the club. Skip has been returned to Sutton, his residence, where he is expected to turn out with the Intermediate ‘B’ team there. Taylor was going to Aurora into another diplomatic hockey battle with this section of the country, as did Johnny Atkinson last winter. Boychoff is also causing some eyebrow lifting in Aurora. However Unionville officials claim that he has been properly released, is playing with them quite legally under the import rule, and was given the go ahead to return to his job at Unionville, after he played a stretch with Galt Junior ‘A’ club.
From Lindsay we read: “The Lindsay Intermediate teams will henceforth be known as the McIntosh Mercury’s. Genial Norm McIntosh came to the rescue of the Orphans, and so once again the boys will have livery to play in. Mucker O’Connell is all bandaged up and looks like he just came through a cement mixer. Mucker had tough luck this year stopping pucks with his pan. Harry Heels is jubilant again now that his ear is sewed back on with three stitches. The sure has been a tough game on goalies. Wally Gregg casualty from a previous game is rallying slowly.
That was a disgusting display of fan animosity displayed by a section of the Markham spectators at Friday night big Intermediate game. A hero today, a bum tomorrow, is the old saying, but it doesn’t just satisfy the large percentage of fans who want to see a good hockey game, and revel in fair treatment of both contenders. Such instances are probably not rare, but the display Friday night focused against the ex-Markhamites was too glaring to be entirely overlooked. Players who Friday night were victims of a unsportsmanlike taunts where only a short ten months ago, skating to the cheers of the same fans. They are all good players who went to the new team of their own free will — they gave several good hockey years to Markham — for which Friday night’s tirade is their thanks. The former Markham coach needs only to point to his record — something many Markham fans might pause to reflect on. He took the Millionaires up the hockey ladder three years in succession, despite the fact they did not quite make the final leap — this is a feat not surpassed by any other hockey coach in the fine record of our southern neighbours.
Controller Balfour of the City of Toronto is framing a letter to Queen’s Park asking the provincial treasurer if he would not make it possible to supply players of the minor ranks in OMHA hockey with birth certificates, free of charge. The kids are now being asked to dig up 50c for each certificate.
Agincourt eked out a win over Stouffville Peewees and the local Bantams on Thursday night, 2-1, and 6-5. Stouffville came out on top in the Juvenile contest. This week’s opening of the Juvenile schedule with Aurora and Stouffville had to be cancelled because of soft ice. Every Thursday night, is Minor Hockey Night, at the local arena, and kids would really welcome you as spectators. The Athletic Club sponsors this night for the young teams each week. UNIONVILLE WALLOPS AURORA 9-2, PENALTIES PLENTIFUL
Unionville walloped Aurora 9-2 in an O.H.A. Junior ‘C’ game on Thursday night, in the Yonge St. town.
The game was very rugged, and marred by 23 penalties. Polly Minton, J.Foote and G. Williamson scored two each for Unionville. Other goal-getters for the winners were Morley Petch, Bill Boychoff and Annesley. Bill Attridge and Ron Simmons were the marksmen for Aurora.
Norm Stunden, ex-Stouffville Junior was exceptionally smart in the Mutuals’ net. At one stage of the game Morley Petch received a cut over one eye which necessitated four stitches. THE SPORTING MAILBOX
Stouffville R.R. 1
Sports Editor
My wife and myself were spectators at the Stouffville Markham game played at Markham last Friday. Both of us have been ardent and loyal followers of Markham hockey teams for many years, but we have definitely decided that we will attend no more games at Markham.
We were disgusted to say the least at the dirty exhibition of hockey put up by certain Markham players, and if this is the kind of hockey they are going to dish out in the future, we feel sure that they will be exhibiting their dirty tactics before empty seats. We love hockey, but not that kind of hockey and prefer staying home and listening to the radio if this kind of stuff is going to continue.
Yours truly, A.S.
A disgusted Markham fan.
R.R. 1, Unionville, nOt.
Stouffville Tribune,
Dear Sirs;
Last Friday evening I went to Markham to enjoy a hockey game and give my support to a team which I thought would merit. I was disappointed in my anticipation of a good night’s sport.
From the drop of the first puck it was apparent that the game was to be one of the “slap-stick,” ‘Shoulder-pushing” affairs so commonly called hockey. Apparently both teams were determined to break heads and rules from the first.
This may, be the fault of the coaches who, although they did not sanction rough play, could not or would not control their men after the issue was bared. The blame must rest in the individual player. He decided when to slash, trip or punch his opponent. It is on his sportsmanship that the game relies for its quality of clean entertainment and for it loyal support. It is obvious a player has a warped perspective of fair play, it is the job of his coach and tam-mates to straighten out his weaknesses.
I think that the intention of body-beating was present in the minds of both teams and it was obvious, after a few minutes of play, that the Clippers were not suited to this kind of play. Instead of adopting a strategy of fighting wrong with right, the Clippers tried to beat Markham in a style foreign to them. This showed in the resulting penalties which kept the complement of both teams below par, with the Clippers chalking up the most bad marks. Naturally the penalty-killing players on the ice were slowly being killed, killing off penalties.
I hope that this game was not typical Stouffville hockey. If it is Stouffville will surely be ashamed to support its team if, and when, they reach higher playoff brackets.
I would like to express my support for a better and more deserving team of the future. C.S.N. CLIPPERS HANDCUFF TORONTO BELLS , 7-2
Toronto bell A.C. were no match for the fast-stepping Stouffville Clippers, as the two met in a scheduled O.H.A. game her on Monday night, with Bells losing 7-2. Five hundred fans watched the game , played on surprisingly good ice, considering the weather.
Stouffville sped to a 3-0 lead in the initial period, Austie Baker, Geo. Rumney and Bill Bradbury rapping in goals, on passes from Don Smith, Bill Johnston, and Bob Lawrie.
With Stouffville short-handed is the squeeze session, Bells finally clicked, McGowan scoring on a pass fro Giscscke. Less than three minutes later made it 4-1, teaming up nicely with Vic Sluce. McGowan for Bells and Don Smith for Stouffville ended the second period 5-2.
The local crew had the run of the field in the final period, added two more counters, the Rumney brothers combing for one and Don Smith getting his second goal of the night.
Although he failed to score any goals, Herb Rose was a standout performer for the Clipper defence. Herb, not the most graceful skater one might see, was very effective when it came to keeping the Bells outside the Stouffville blue line.
Bruce Timgren, blonde centre ice performer for the Bells was watched with interest by local fans. He’s a brother of Ray Timgren now with the Leafs.
UNIONVILLE COMES FROM BEHIND TO WIN OVER AURORA

UNIONVILLE COMES FROM BEHIND TO WIN OVER AURORA
In a snappy O.H.A. Junior ‘C’ hockey game at Unionville on Tuesday night, Unionville Mutuals overcame a three gaol lead to down Aurora Meteors 5-4. Over five hundred fans crowded the Crosby memorial rink.
Aurora swept to a three-goal lead in the first period, Ron Simpson and Doug Ross being the snipers. Unionville bounced back to tie in the count in the middle frame and went on to win in the last period.
Lyall Petch, Boychoff and Minton were the Unionville scorers. Two former Stouffville goalies were opposing each other, Doug Moore in the Aurora net, and Norm Stunden in the Unionville cage. Both net minders were kept on the jump throughout the sixty minutes, and both came up with some sparking stops. The win ran Unionville’s winning streak up to six games with one tie, and was their second win over the Aurora Club. The Mutuals were without the services of Bun Sellers.
Stouffville Intermediates are in the midst os a heavy two weeks schedule, playing six games in fourteen days, two at home and four away.
From Lindsay comes word that little Britain, with a population of 300, a bit west of Lindsay, completed a new ice arena and community centre costing $20,000 and capable of seating 1,200. Some 500 district farmers were canvassed and kicked in with coin, time and labour to make the project a success. Ice surface is 172 by 72, the entire building being 192 by 92. Syl Apps referred an exhibition game the other night between the Oshawa generals and an all-star district team as part of the official opening.
Comments by fans in the press following the recent clashes between Markham’s Millionaires and Stouffville Clippers, have apparently started a snowball rolling, and with this issue appears the final comment, else the fans will continue to throw snowballs back and forth Ian these columns into the summer. Everyone is entitled to his own opinion but none will be carried in The Tribune further on the present issue. Despite Mr. Weggs contention, we have desisted all season from voicing any personal opinion, prior to the teams meeting, knowing that the sports fever which has existed between these two towns for half a century and which only requires a clash such as we recently witnessed to really boil over.
Our note last week regarding Controller Balfour’s petition to the Provincial government to relax the cost of birth certificates for minor hockey players, has drawn comment from the local Juvenile management. It appears that a birth certificate cost 41.00 not 50c as was stated, and service in receiving them is very bad.. In contrast, a certificate from the same department in Saskatchewan, was received from away out west in only four days, and in addition the cost was on 25c.

LOCALS TO MUCH FOR LINDSAY, WIN 11-1
Stouffville Clippers proved too much competition for Lindsay Intermediate ‘A’ Club on Monday night, as they downed their visitors 11-1. The ice was extremely fast, and the game proved good entertainment, despite the lopsided score. Only five minor penalties were handed out by referee “Squeak” Morrison of Oshawa.
It was a good night for the boys to fatten their scoring averages, and they proceeded to do right from the opening whistle. Norm Legge, Ross Hochberg, Keith Jewett and Bob Lawrie, each tallied twice. The other three goals were racked up by geo. Rumney, Don Campbell and Les Clarke.
Abercrombie scored Lindsay’s lone goal at the 11 minute mark in the first period. O’Connell in the Lindsay net turned in a good effort, despite the number of pucks that got past him. Jack Harper was right ‘on the beam” for Stouffville, and though he was not worked as hard as the opposition, he came up with some stops on the corner shots that had “goal” labelled all over them.
Stouffville took command of the contest right from the start, getting three in the first period, four in the second and four in the third. CLIPPERS RUN UP 10-6 SCORE AT BOBCAYGEON
Jack Rumney turned in a smart three-goal effort at Bobcaygeon Thursday night as the Clippers downed the northerners 10-6. In addition, he chalked up two assists for a total of five points.
Stouffville took a four-goal lead in the first period on goals by Legge, Rumney, Lawrie and Campbell. Kimble opened the scoring at 2.40 of period two. He was assisted by Ernie Nichols, Jack Rumney and Bob Lawrie made it 6-1 for Stouffville with two more, and Sluce from Clack as the period ended made it 7-1.
Bobcaygeon pressed hard in the lays period, and clicked the red light five times, as Stouffville eased up. The local boys however capitalized on their breaks for three more, Hochberg from Smith, Rose from Rumney and Rumney from Bradbury.
There were only five penalties in the game, Rose getting three for Stouffville, Lee and Gordon for Bobcaygeon. FIVE STRAIGHT FOR MILLIONAIRES
Markham Millionaires turned in their fifth consecutive victory when they defeated Peterborough Legion, 7-3 in an O.H.A. Senior ‘B’ game Friday night on very rough ice.
The winners got off to an early lead, scoring four goals in the first frame and they were never threatened. Reg. Singleton set the pace for the winners, rapping home two goals and setting up two others scored by Brennan and Milroy. Vitarelli was best for the visitors with a goal and an assist.
The Peterborough goalie received a deep gash in the forehead from a flying puck, and had to retire near the end of the first period. OUR STOUFFVILLE HOCKEY CLUB
(by the manager)
Now a word about our boys themselves. It has been my privilege and pleasure to have taken an active part in hockey and baseball all my life, principally in Western Canada. Never in all that time have I had the pleasure and satisfaction of managing a finer or more gentlemanly bunch of young athletes than those that make up the Clippers hockey team, both on the ice and off the ice. Every one of these boys give all they have got, and there is not a quitter among them. Not one of them knows what the word “quit” means, and our opponents and our fans will bear me out in this before the season ends. They play hard and they play clean, just the way it should be played. These boys are afraid of nothing, and they are game enough to put up with a lot just for the sake of good sportsmanship, and to be a credit to the game and the majority of hockey fans who enjoy watching hockey as it should be played.
And now a word about the coach of our team. Ernie Lawrie is well known to you and to most hockey fans in the province. He has been untiring in his efforts to build and mould this team into shape. Many a sleepless night he has had, and many miles he has driven, in the interest of our club. A clean living, sport loving young man, Ernie sets the right example for his boys to follow. A hockey player himself, and a good one too, Ernie knows all the tricks of the trade. Strict, but much loved and respected by his boys, Ernie will undoubtedly mold our team into a smooth and fast working machine that will take some beating before another season or two rolls around. Tp Ernie and his untiring efforts, I say, Thank You, very much.
To our president, our treasurer, and our executive, I also say thank you, so much for the keen interest you are taking along with others who have so kindly offered their cars to transport the players to Peterborough and Bobcaygeon games. On behalf of the boys themselves, I want to express our greatest appreciation. To the publicity and program committees, I also want to say, thank you. Thanks is also due to our good friend the rink manager. The weatherman has been most unkind to him, and he has had to pt up with a lot that no one knows anything about. He carries a thermometer around his neck night and day, and the minute there is a sign of frost, he is away down to the rink to see if he can possibly coax a little more ice out on the sheet. He has also made several much needed improvements to the rink, and I do hope that he will make so much money this season that he will be glad to make still greater improvements next year.
And last, but certainly not least, I want to say thank you, so much, to our loyal fans and followers. We could not get very far without your support. Your hockey boys really do appreciate your wonderful support. The boys are prepared to work their hearts out for you, and what they lack in experience now, they will do their upmost to make up in hard work.
Sincerely your
C.H. (Bert) Bell
Manager Stouffville Clipper hockey Team POINT SYSTEM REVISED IN LOCAL HOCKEY SETUP
Henceforth the only points which any team will count in its standing are those which it will earn from other teams playing in the same hockey classification. That is, only the points which Stouffville, Markham, and Lindsay Intermediates receive from one another will count in the standings of the ‘A’clubs. Likewise, only the points which Peterborough Legion, Peterborough Petes, Bell A.C. and Toronto Meteors make playing together will count in their standings. Bobcaygeon, being the only Intermediate ‘B’ club, will receive a bye into the Toronto ‘B’ playdowns.
This plan was not in the system originally set up at the convener’s meeting, but recent word from the O.H.A. head quarters has changed the setup to that set out above.
Under this new arrangement the standings are as follows:
Intermediate ‘A’
GP W L T Pts
Markham 3 2 1 0 6
Stouffville 3 2 1 0 6
Lindsay 2 0 2 0 0

The end of the Intermediate hockey schedule is coming up shortly, with just two more home games to go. Bel A.C. will be back here next Monday night for their second appearance of the winter, while Markham will wind up their schedule here on Feb., 21st.
Newmarket Athletic Commission asked the municipal council in that town last week, to go dollar for dollar with them up to $25,000 for the installation of artificial ice in the arena there. Figures for such installation tabled at the meeting were, Canadian Ice Machinery Co., $30,000, complete, and John Ingress Co., $28,000 f.o.b. Toronto. It was pointed out to the Commission by the Mayor that such an expenditure would have to be okayed by the Ontario Municipal Board, and possibly a vote of the ratepayers taken. An interesting point in the discussion was it would require 7 miles of 1 1/4 inch pipe to cover the rink surface.
Last league game of Juvenile hockey was played in Stouffville on Thursday night between Newmarket and Stouffville. Ronald Smith played a bang up game in the nets. Derek Chadwick was the high scorer of the night, scoring 3 goals, one in each period. Final score was Stouffville 7, Newmarket 4. Four penalties were given to Stouffville and two to Newmarket. Other Stouffville tallies were made by Walters, Schell and Burkholder.
The Clippers travel to Sunderland on Friday night for a game on Friday night for a game with Lindsay Intermediates. This is one of the games they must win to keep abreast of Markham in the Intermediate ‘A’ division of this group. While Lindsay proved rather an easy touch for Stouffville in their first meeting here, they may prove tougher to take on their home ice. The Clippers expect to have Sluce back, injured in an earlier game, in the line-up for this game.
Unionville Mutuals and Weston played to a 5-all tie on Monday night in their Junior ‘C’ hockey game. This is the second tie contest between these two clubs. In Monday’s clash, Poots with two goals, Watson, Boychoff and Moon with one each were best for Unionville. Penalties were few. Aurora downed Weston by a 3-goal margin last Thursday night, to bring the Aurora club into tighter grips with Unionville in the standings. The Unionville club holds considerable interest for local fans has yet to lose a game. TALK OF MUNICIPAL OWNED ARENA AND ARTIFICIAL ICE PLANT
Newmarket, Aurora and Richmond Hill are all starting to move in the direction of artificial ice — all held meetings in this connection last week, and one of the towns has taken the matter before council. What about Stouffville? We’ve an Athletic Club here headed up with a live executive, that is second to none of our neighbours in the promotion of sports activities. The Athletic Club is alive, it’s energetic, but it’s hampered, particularly at this time of year, by the lack of more rink accommodation and the assurance of ice at all times.
A move has been suggested to have council negotiate the purchase of the local arena, and then work out some scheme for remodelling and artificial ice.
It is roughly estimated that less than $50,000 would put over such a scheme. It’s a big figure, but it could be done. A certain portion might be born by interested organizations, and the remainder would have to go on debenture for which a vote by the people would be required.
A number of prominent businessmen who entertain ideas along this line, tell us they believe with proper organizing such a vote would be favourable.
While no poll of council opinion has been taken, it is known that several of the members are favourable, at least to try and work out some scheme of finance, if they approached by the ratepayers or organizations.
Such an undertaking would receive assistance from the provincial treasury. LAST PERIOD RALLY DOWNS METEORS 6-5
A four-goal splurge in the last period gave the Stouffville Clippers a 5-3 decision over Toronto Meteors in the local arena on Monday night in an scheduled Senior ‘B’ fixture. This was the last meeting of these two clubs for this season. The score was deadlocked one-all at the end of two periods, mad Meteors shot a two-goal lead in the first three minutes of the final 20 minutes, only to have the local crew storm back with four.

PETERBOROUGH TROUNCE CLIPPERS WITH SHUTOUT
(Peterborough Examiner)
Peterborough Legion clipped Stouffville 8-0 in a league fixture there on Friday night. A good-sized crowd saw a fast, clean tussle on good ice, with the visitors out-classed in every period. They skated fast and tried hard but were short-handed four players from their regular line-up.
The Vitarelli pack struck early to ram home three goals in the first nine minutes. They added three in the second and got a brace in the third. Only five penalties were handed out as they stuck to hockey, though occasionally checking hard in the speedy going.
Lindsay of Detroit got a penalty in Saturday night’s Toronto N.H.L. game for “spearing” — there’s a new one for you. Lindsay jabbed the blade of hid stick in an opponents chest.

Lindsay of Detroit got a penalty in Saturday night’s Toronto N.H.L. game for “spearing” — there’s a new one for you. Lindsay jabbed the blade of hid stick in an opponents chest.
Stouffville’s game with Toronto Bells on Monday had to be called off due to bad ice. Markham went ahead with their game, but it was little better than floor hockey.
The Millionaires continues to roll in high gear. They trimmed the Meteors in Lindsay on Saturday night 10-1, and took Bobcaygeon at Markham on Monday by the same score.
It looks like a ding-dong playoff with Aurora, Unionville and Weston in the Junior ‘C’ group. Unionville is still the only unbeaten club in the group having two tie games with Weston. The Mutuals play an exhibition game in Crosby Arena this Tuesday night with Upper Canada College Junior B’s
Chub Spencery, Clark and Lloyd Pascoe have been taken on to bolster the Aurora Intermediates ‘B’ club of the metropolitan league. The trio are all members of the Brougham bush-league squad. With the local help, Aurora managed to upset Newmarket ‘A’s’ in a league fixture last week.
The Clippers expect to have Austie Baker back in the lineup for the forthcoming Markham series which winds up the local schedule. The Club has had a special steel contraption made for Baker’s skate to protect his foot which has been in a cast for some weeks due to a broken toe. Vic Sluce was back in the line-up on Friday night, and the club is gradually getting their injury-riddled crew back in uniform.
Markham Millionaires came up with fifteen goals Friday night in their game with the Toronto Bells. This is the largest score racked up by any team in the group to date. Needless to say, Markham won the game.
Stouffville and Pine Orchard, brougham and Uxbridge played to a 6-6 and 4-4 tie in their double-header at the local arena on Friday. The teams open their playoff schedule on Tuesday night.
The second round meeting between Stouffville and Markham, scheduled for Markham Arena this Friday night, will go on as scheduled, providing the ice is in shape. We contacted the Markham management on Tuesday, and were informed that there has definitely been no move to transfer Friday’s game to Oshawa, as had been rumoured. Markham, Secretary Conlin told us, will play all scheduled games at least, on home ice, if ice is available at all.
A rink comprised by O. Drewery, G. Lehman and R. Fleury, skipped by M.E. Watts, lost a close one 13-11, to an Oshawa foursome, in the British Consols curling event last week, in the Oshawa rink. An Agincourt rink of J. Cowperthwaite, P. Woolhead, A. Moorhead and L.E. Lewis lost to another Oshawa quartette 12-9. CLIPPERS DUNK LINDSAY BY SCORE OF 11-2
Stouffville Clippers added eleven more goals to their total on Friday night when they dunked Lindsay in the Brock Arena by the score of 11-2. The locals took a 2-0 lead in the first period and were never headed. Lindsay notched a clean counter to start the second period, Hanlin being the marksman. Stouffville countered with three more, and came through with their usual big third frame, scoring six. Abercrombie tallied Sunderland’s only other goal at 17.20 of period three.
Geo Rumney and Norm Legge, each counted three for Stouffville, jack Rumney and Boll Johnston, two each, and Ross Hochberg one. Keith Jewett picked up two assists and Bob Lawrie a pair of assists.
The game was clean, only five penalties being handed out. Abercrombie caused quite a sensation at one point in the middle period, when he broke free from the pack at centre ice, and at the same moment broke his stick. The puck slide over the blue, and the Lindsay player made an attempt to go after it with his foot. Raper rushed out from the Stouffville net, only to be swept to the ice by a body check from the onrushing player.
Lindsay are finding the going pretty rough financially, and less than a hundred turned out fir the Friday night’s game, though the weather was sub-zero which may have partly accounted for the slump.

The Stouffville crew forged ahead 4-1 in the first period. Lorne Boadway, Forfar and Burkholder scoring. Redshaw getting an assist. Winters tallied Aurora’s lone first period goal. Neither team made any headway in the second period, although there were some exciting moments around both nets.
Stouffville broke out again in the third, Forfar getting his second goal of the night, and Walters and Chadwick adding two more. Marchant and Warlow countered with two for Aurora. Aurora tried hard in the third period, but could make little headway in narrowing Stouffville substantial margin. Four players went to the penalty bench, two from each club.
Manager Jim Austin and Coach Murray Holden have a hustling bunch of lads in their Juvenile outfit, and warrant good fan support as they start down the Ontario playoff trail.

MILLIONAIRES TAKE COMMANDING LEAD
Markham Millionaires took a commanding lead in their best of seven group playoff battle as they handed the local Clippers a 3-2 defeat at Oshawa on Friday night. The win gave the Markhamites a two game lead and they need only one more to take the Sr. ‘B’ group title. Play during the entire contest was fairly even with both goaltenders turning in spectacular performances. Stunden had twenty-four stops while Rhodes saved the day on twenty-one occasions. The game was very fast and cleanly played although the Clippers left played although the Clippers left themselves at a great disadvantage by receiving four
cheap penalties in the final period to a lone two minutes that the Millionaires were shorthanded. At one time the locals were two men short and although the Markham squad were held off the score sheet goalie Rhodes was given many anxious moments. With five minutes left in the third period Bradbury was banished to the cooler and while he was serving his time Singleton pushed the rubber into the twine for what proved to be the winning tally in playoff hockey penalties can be very disastrous, and may mean the difference in winning or losing the game.
After many close plays at both ends of the rink the locative again but their shooting was erratic and they fired the rubber wild of the net. Galand had the one big chance for the greenshirts but he bounced the puck off the goal posts. The second period saw Markham tie the score with Brennan catching the far corner with a backhand shot. The Clippers seemed very slow in clearing the puck out of their own end and gave the opposing forwards many point blank shots on the net. Both Singleton and Galand went
right in on Rhodes but he rose to the occasion and blocked the speedy wingers cold with sensational stops. Markham held the edge in the second frame and gave goalies Rhodes ten shots while Stunden kicked six shots aside. The Millionaires sewed the contest up in the final frame with Grey notching their second marker to put his team in the lead for the first time in the game. Hopper put both teams on even terms again. Singleton came through with the big goal of the night to give the Millionaires their third win. On the night’s play many of the local fans were somewhat disgruntled with the fact that Gord Lewis who was the Team’s top goal scorer during the regular schedule was used sparingly throughout the entire game hardly seeing frame and being thrown into the fray in the final minutes of the third period when the cause was lost. CLIPPERS KEEP PLAYOFFS ALIVE, TRIM MARKHAM 3-2
Giving everything they had to keep in the running for the O.H.A. Senior ‘B’ group championship, Stouffville Clippers trimmed Markham Millionaires 3-2 here Saturday night in the fifth game of the best of seven series. Notwithstanding the loss of George Stark through injury, and Jim Machin down with mumps, Bangay’s boys were back in top form, and put up a terrific barrage in the first period, which netted them one goal, Nick Bangay taking a pass from Sayliss at 5.12. Norm Stunden did everything but turn handsprings to keep the count down. Jack Rhodes was only called on to make a half dozen stops in the entire twenty minutes.
Play was even in the mid-frame Watson from Clements tied the score at 4.36 and that fire-brand Galand combined with Bell at 8.38. Only two minutes later Sayliss banged home the tying goal for the Clippers. Coach Robinson pulled a new stunt with two Clippers in the penalty box. He took Stunden out of the net for a three-man advantage, but the move failed to playoff. It was a smart move as Markham had nothing to lose, still holding an edge in the series. The winning goal was a solo effort by Gord Lewis at 13.16. Lewis let go with a lightning shot on the ice which fooled Stunden completely as it whistled in on his left side, stuck the base bar at the back of the net and bounced out. The light failed to go on but the referees were on top of the play and called the goal themselves without question. The Clipper offensive started to roll again the last period and Earl McCrone brought roars of applause from local fans as he cut on several
dazzling rushes only to be outguessed by Stunden. Stouffville carried the play continually as the Millionaires began to sag under the pressure. Midway through the period Markham got the rubber back of Rhodes on a scramble but the play was called back as two Millionaires were in the gaol crease.
There were continued uproar over penalties and each offence was hotly argued. Geo. Scott was thumbed off for ten minutes for trying to come to blows with a spectator. Nine penalties were meted out to the Clippers and twelve to Markham.

During the six or seventh months of the year that he Clipper pucksters are not wearing their skates and carrying hockey sticks they are engaged in other sporting activities as well as their regular jobs. Coach Bob Bangay is almost as well known around these parts in the summer months as he is in the hockey season. Bob who is employed at Frigidaire in Leaside finds time at night to hold down the first base position on the Buttonville softball club. Brother Nick, captain of the Clippers this year, was working for Silverwoods dairy, delivering milk during the winter but expects to change his position for the summer. Nick is also an enthusiastic softball player holding down the second base sack for Buttonville. Ross Hochberg works with his father in the clothing business operating their store err Uxbridge. Les Clarke handles the books for Riverdale Motors in East Toronto. Les did a turn for the Intermediates hardball club last season and can handle a soccer ball quite skillfully also. Jim Machin is kept busy at Toronto University and will complete his second year in a few months. Herb Rose operates a truck in the coal business and find time to have a turn at the bat for Aurora baseball club. Don Couch works in the west end of Toronto and stars with the famed Peter Pan hardball club at centre field. Bobby Hopper is employed at the Robert Simpson Co. and is a master of the drops and curves with Mayfair’s ball club
in Toronto. Bob can turn in an equally good game at second base if his assistance is required. Polly Minton travels to Toronto every day where he works at Frigidaire. Polly handles the first base position for Unionville softball club and can hold down the sack for Stouffville hardball club or right field. Hal Gibson earns his bread and butter at Moffats in Weston. Besides playing with the Clippers he is very proud of his House League team operated by Moffats and on which he is a star. Gord Lewis farms with his father on the seventh concession. He plays third base for Peaches A.C. softball club during the summer. Jack Warriner, Clippers sub goalie, handles the coaching position of both the Peaches A.C. hockey club and ball club. He takes his turn at bat if his happens to find itself in a tough spot. Jack Rhodes works in a factory in Weston where nuts and bolts are manufactured. George Sayliss reads water meters for the Leaside Water Works in Toronto. Bill Bradbury is a student at Business College and is employed in the bakery business in his spare time. Bill played a few games for the local hardball last season also. George Stark works in the east end of Toronto and keeps in shape by playing ball for Lansing softball club. George held down short stop position on Buttonville softball club also during the latter part of the season last year.
Well that all-important playoff bout is history for another season and with a much different result than both local fans and Markham fans alike, expected to see. As was stated in our account of the final game at Oshawa, Markham won the series on their superiority around the opposition net. As for the Clippers, they dropped the second game at Unionville after leading 3-0. Granted the outcome of the series would still have been in doubt, but the effect upon the Millionaires had they dropped the first two games in succession could have proved a big factor in Stouffville’s favour. The Clippers made a valiant attempt to stage a comeback, and came very close to pushing the series to the limit. What next season will bring forth remains to be seen. Stouffville will definitely be in there again, as the Arena just couldn’t operate without the entry. the fact that Markham again gathered in the group championship, will prove to be a real shot in the arm to this club which has their home-ice problem to be faced. FIRST GAME IN KING CLANCY SERIES 7-1
On Friday night the Midgets journeyed to Toronto for their first game against St. John’s House in the King Clancy League. The locals displayed entirely too much speed and scoring power and had the best part of the play throughout the entire game. The scoring was divided evenly with around Hodgson being the only two goal man on the team. Don Forgie, Jack Barkey, Don Harmon and Dave Beverley and Eric Davis were the other marksmen. The game was played in the Royal Arena, Toronto. RHODES SELECTED MOST VALUABLE PLAYER, LEWIS TEAMMATES’ SECOND CHOICE
Following the game on Tuesday night at Oshawa the local club took a vote by ballot to pick the most valuable man to his team during the season and also the runner-up. Goalie Jack Rhodes was selected as the top performers with centreman Gord Lewis coming in a close second. Jack has put on a great goaltending display throughout the entire season and held up equally well during the playoffs just concluded. The popular goalie is highly respected by his team-mates and his good humour, fun-loving manner can always be counted on even when the team may be down a few goals. Gord Lewis, effective centreman, placed second in the selection. Gord has been one of the hardest working player on the team and has come up with some valuable goals during the year to pull his team through when the going was the toughest. to round out his successful season he potted the final three markers scored by the Clippers, one being the winning tally in the fifth game at Stouffville on Saturday night and the other two were the only game on Tuesday night. Gord was the top goalscorer during the season and the second highest point getter on the team. Both players would be a valuable asset to any hockey team.

Polly Minton is now playing hockey for Frigidaire in the King Clancy League. the added strength up the centre has done much to aid the Leaside crew who found the going quite tough in the T.H.L. Last week Polly fired three goals and picked up seven assists as his team handed Hanson’s Cartage a 12-3 defeat.
Gord Lewis put aside his hockey stick and turned his skill to refereeing in the Musselman’s Lake-Peaches contest. he ruled the game with a firm hand thumbing six players tot eh box with minors and adding a misconduct in for good measure.
The local Midgets suffered their first defeat of their current King Clancy series as they were handed a 3-2 setback by Toronto Redwings in Stouffville on Thursday night. The locals had a lot of tough luck around their own net with two screened shots going into the twine off a skate. Joe Lewis and Harry Simpson tallied the two markers for the Stouffville crew. The locals will try to even the series on Wednesday night of this week when the two teams meet up again. Since it is the best of three series the Midgets must win the next two games to keep in the running. The game is to be played in the home arena starting at eight o’clock. T.H.L.

According to Bunny Morgason, Tely sports columnist with the local touch, O.H.A. board is already discussing some of the inequalities in grouping which crept into the metropolitan senior circuit this past
winter. It is suggested that a possible grouping for 1951-52 might be Markham, Stouffville, Georgetown, Aurora, Newmarket, Woodbridge, Weston, Oakville new Toronto and Scarboro. What about Owen Sound? Well Sudbury’s Maxie Silverman, NOHA past president, suggests Sudbury, Sault Ste. Marie and North Bay join up with Kitchener, Hamilton and Toronto in a Major group. Could be that Owen Sound, and Brantford too, might make that an eight-team loop. There is little new to report on the local scene to provide any clues to next year’s setup here in Stouffville. As for players moving from one club to another within the radius of Newmarket to Markham, including Stouffville and Aurora, all clubs will be tough to deal with from a player’s standpoint when it comes to trying to get a release, unless some fair compensation is forthcoming from the club which wants the select players. We’ve certainly had to revamp our ideas about
giving players releases sine the O.H.A. spoke a word on the subject this winter, and stated that a club was most foolish to release a player to another club, without first emceeing sure they would get some reasonable return for so-doing. So much for trying to get any releases, but there’s another story going the rounds here and in Markham, to the effect that Stouffville and Markham Seniors might get together next fall, pool their resources for one senior club and also set up a Junior ’B’ club to provide a feeder for future years. One top-notch coach would be engaged to handle both teams. The idea is spoken of favourably in some Markham quarters where we have listened to much talk of next year’s prospects. In Stouffville there seems to be a yen on the part of some sports who have had something to do with the game at one time or another, to get back into the Junior ranks. They tell us that such a move would provide a help not a hindrance to the senior outfit. The O.H.A. are asking all the clubs to send in their entries now for next fall so that more thought may be given to the groupings. The annual spring pow-wow is slated for Toronto Saturday. Right now there is a baseball season heading our way, so we’ll have to wait till next September to get answers to many of the hockey questions.

The local intermediate club is getting set for its regular May 24th tournament which has always been a big attraction in the past years. As yet it is not known what teams will comprise the opposition, although the powerful Waterdown squad which defeated the locals last year, is being sought for the pre-season contest.
Norm Stunden brilliant goaltender for the Markham seniors, was voted unanimously by his fellow players, as the one and only choice for the O.H.A., most valuable player award. Norm is well-known not only for his outstanding hockey ability but for his baseball prowess. Stouffville intermediates are hopeful of bringing him to town here this summer to bolster the local pitching staff since Miller has gone to Oshawa seniors. Norm is also tops on the softball field and has led Buttonville to the championship for the last four years. BALL JUVENILES GROUPED IN LAKESHORE LEAGUE
A practice will be held in the ball park on Tuesday, May 8th, at 7 o’clock sharp for all boys under 19 years of age on May 1st. Stouffville Juveniles this year are grouped in the Lakeshore league, with two sections as follows : Stouffville, Lindsay, Little Britain and Oshawa; Bowmanville, Port Hope and Cobourg. Oshawa clubs are ‘A’ clubs, all others are in the ‘B’ category. MIDGETS LOSE A CLOSE DECISION IN FIRST CLANCY PLAYOFF
The local Midgets led by Don Forgie took the first game of their best of three series with Toronto St. Anthonies on Friday night. The return contest was played at Stouffville on Saturday night, but the locals were not so fortunate as in the first game and lost 2-1. The Lions had the best part of the play in the first half but couldn’t get any hard shots on net. They held the puck inside the visitor’s blueline for the greater part of the time and in a scramble around the cage Eric Davis slipped the rubber into the twine to give his team a one goal lead. Near the end of the opening twenty minutes the locals became very loose and allowed the attacking forward to skate right in on goalie Hallman to tie the score. In the second half the Toronto squad fought hard at the drop of the puck and added another to their total to take the game. Some of the Stouffville players were late in coming and didn’t have time to get warmed up. In the final period a wild fight broke out and it was some time before referee Wally Dwyer could get things underway. The two teams meet again for the third game this week. FOR USING FISTS ON OPPOSING PLAYERS
At the annual spring convention of the O.H.A. in Toronto on Saturday, Father Faustit of St. Michael’s introduced a drastic step to curb fighting during a hockey game. He recommended and saw his motion passed overwhelmingly, that C.A.H.A. be requested to rule that any player guilty of “striking an opponent with his fists,” should be given a game misconduct penalty. The celebrated residence rule which provides for a player to play for the team nearest to his home was kicked around at the conclave but a motion of change was defeated. The rule has little significance in Stouffville now that the town is in the metropolitan area. SYSTEM OF FINES ADOPTED BY O.H.A. FOR ABUSIVE TALK
A ten dollar fine rather than a 3 game suspension, will be levied against O.H.A. players, in every series, if they are guilty of using abusive language during a game, it was decided at the O.H.A. convention on Saturday. the change was suggested by W.A. Hewitt, and the convention back him up unanimously. he said the suspension punished the team instead of the player. However, a part of the suspension rule will remain. If a second offence is committed in the same session, the player will get a one-game suspension. For a subsequent offence, both penalties will be handed out.

LATE PEACHES RALLY FALLS SHORT AS STOUFFVILLE GIRLS WIN 12-9
Stouffville girls took over sole possession of first place in the Ladies Softball League by virtue of their 12-9 victory over Peaches on Friday night at Unionville. The local girls took a six run lead in the first innings and although Peaches came back strong in the closing part of the game they could not overtake the visitors. The hurling speed of pitcher Myrtle Staley seemed to have the seventh concession girls somewhat bewildered in the early stages of the contest but later they settled down to make their hits count. Peggy White and Marg Barry were the two best hitters for Stouffville getting on base four times out of a possible five. Joan Haynes saved the day a couple of occasions as she pulled down some hard hit balls in the outfield. Nelda Elson and Marian Reid came up with the two best hits of the night with four baggers in a sixth inning rally. Pat and Marg Smith showed up well completing some nice plays between them. Laura Warriner started the game on the mound for Peaches hurling the first innings. Flo Anderson came in for the second and seemed to improve as the game went on. From the play Friday night it looks as if these two clubs will be fairly evenly matched. On Wednesday night of this week Unionville comes to Stouffville while Peaches journey to Victoria Square. The outcome of these contests should pretty well separate the teams into two groups or it could bring the clubs closer together if the two bottom clubs should happen to come out on the top end of the score. LOCAL PHOTOGRAPHER, TED CADIEUX, IN THIRD YEAR WITH BALL CLUB
One of the local boys who since the war has formed a strong link in the local outfield is Ted Cadieux, who operates his own photography business in town. Born in Stouffville Ted received his schooling here where he finished five years at High School before joining the Airforce in 1942. While in the service Ted graduated to the rank of Flying Officer and piloted the huge Dakota Transport plane on missions ranging from England to India. He spent much of his war service in the Middle East theatre and at the age of 20 piloted his transport across the Atlantic which would be quite an experience for any young man. After his discharge in 1946 Ted went into the photography trade with Meyers Studios in Toronto and later was sent to Guelph where he managed the Meyers Store in that district. In 1949 he joined the local hardballers and since that time has formed a steady outfielder with his consistent catching ability. In his first year with the home squad he formed part of the outfield along with Wally Nicholson and Lloyd Jennings. Lefty Baggs, Lorne Schell, Stan Miller and Bob Hassard formed the hurling foursome with Nick Procenko and Ken Schell competing the battery. In his opening year of ball the locals were defeated by Sunderland. The team was coached and managed by Ken Laushway and Murray Holden. Aside from ball Ted has played his share of hockey in his high school days. During that time he formed a strong defensive barrier and also did a turn for Unionville in the Clancy league. From the days of softball when he held down the second base position Ted always preferred the field and can usually be counted on to snag the highest
hit balls or trap any line grounders that might come his way. Since his return from overseas Ted has married and has two children, Michael 4 and Trudy 6 months. As each game comes and goes the local fans will be looking into right field to watch their big dark-haired outfielder smother hot grounders, pull in line drives and leap into the air to grab a sure homer against the outfield fence. LORNE SCHELL HURLS RED SOX TO 7-1 WIN OVER SUTTON
On Monday night Sutton were the visiting squad at the local park and although they had been the only team to hand the homesters a defeat this year they wilted away under the hurling power of Lorne Schell on the mound. For two innings both squads failed t score a run until the bottom of the third when the Red Sox came across with one. They added two more in the fourth and four in the big sixth innings. The visitors came up with their only run in the seventh when a couple of errors spoiled the shut out chances for the young hurler. In the fist innings, batter number one lined to L. Schell but the net man grounded safely through Davis and Hassard for a single. This man was picked off at second on a forced p[lay Hassard to Cook. The third went down as Davis scooped up a bouncing grounder and hurled to Jennings covering at first to retire the side. In the locals half of the first both Lorne Schell and Jennings were thrown out. Hassard came up with a well placed single but k. Schell forced Hassard at second to retire the side. In the third innings Lorne Schell received a free ticket to first and later moved around to third on a single by Hassard. K. Schell flied to the third baseman but Cook pounded a well hit ball into the glove on the centre fielder and Schell came home after the catch for the homesters first run. In the fourth the locals added two more runs. A single by Cote bad a sacrifice by Cadieux moved him to second. A walk to Jennings and a hard hit double by K. Schell brought both men in for two runs.
The locals completed their base running in the sixth when they came up with four runs. Cote, Jennings, L. Shell and Hassard all crossed the plate to make the score read 7-0. The Sutton squad came up with their one run when an error by Cote and a clean cut single by the next batter brought in a runner. A strike out and a fly ball to Cadieux ended any kind of a rally that the visitors might have believed possible.
Too many errors are still being committed by the local squad which although they do not show up to any great extent when the opposition is of a weaker variety might prove disastrous if the visitors were a top notch club. The errors in one contest might only count for one run in some games but in others it might mean a dozen. No doubt some of these kinks will be ironed out as the schedule progresses. The local lineup for the game was as follows: p, Lorne Schell; c, Ken Schell; 1st, Jennings; 2nd, Cook; 3rd, Davis; ss, Hassard; fl, Cadieux; cf, Cote; rf., Smith. Hodgins replaced Davis at third for the later part of the game.

Dinty Hodgins did the hurling for the local hardballers on Friday night in their win against Toronto Greenwoods. FULL GREEN WELCOME SIGHT TO TOWN BOWLING PROMOTERS
The town bowling green was packed to capacity on Friday night as local bowlers took advantage of the fine weather to enlarge their scores. The number one couple of the night was mr. George Hillson and Mrs. Haig of Agincourt with three wins. Second best was Mr. Ed. Goodman and Mrs. E. Beare of Claremont. High with two wins was mr. and Mrs. Preston of Agincourt and high with one win was Mr. Elmer Daniels and Mrs. Fred Crossen of Stouffville. Mr. Elmer Daniels and Mrs. Fred Crossen were the top bowlers for the previous week. the trebles rink headed by Mrs. Fred Crossen played off here and Stouffville was the winners. They will now journey to Tottenham to compete in a tournament there. Agincourt under the able direction of Mrs. Haig were the winners of the doubles. STOUFFVILLE GIRLS RUN WILD OVER VICTORIA SQUARE 19-0
On Thursday night the local girls journeyed to Victoria Square for a game with their fourth concession rivals and completely whitewashed their opposition by a score of 19-0. The girls had a great bat swinging night and behind the able battery of Myrtle Staley on the mound and Gertie Drewery back of the plate the Square found it hard to get a runner on base. Jean Thorvaldson came up with the most runs for Stouffville with 5 to her credit. Betty Brown crossed the plate on four occasions while Helen Goudie and Carolyn Haynes added three runs each. Marg Barry and Pat Lehman scored two. Over at Markham on Friday night the new arrivals to the league, Aurora was the visiting club playing Peaches. The Peaches team started out strong gaining a two run lead in the first innings but after that one error followed by another the Yonge St. girls to pull into the lead and go on to win 7-4. Peaches showed some kind of rally in the later part of the game and did manage to come across with two runs but terrific hurling on the part of the Aurora pitcher cooled out any threat.
On Wednesday night of this week Peaches come to Stouffville for a rained out game, so come out and cheer your favourite team and give the girls some support. CLIPPER MANAGEMENT HOPES FOR MAJOR LEAGUE PLAYERS
It may be early in the season to talk about hockey but as the old saying goes “there’s no time like the present” and the Clipper management have already discussed their plans for a winning club. Three of last years players have given notice that they will not be able to join the squad for the coming season due to their jobs and other reasons. These players are Bobby Hopper, George Stark and Gord Lewis. Manger Tim O’Neill has high hopes of obtaining some of the players from the disbanded St. Mikes and Marlboro clubs and bc these squads have folded up the players obtained would not be classed as imports. The players sought by the local club could if they desired go to some other team in the Senior ‘A’ group but some have jobs in Toronto and find it impossible to tie themselves down to squads situated in a city many miles away as they would have to travel long distances or forget about their positions. A few of these Big League stars would help in no small way to strengthen any club and just how good some of these players are was discovered by our local club and neighbouring squads when they came face to face with Brantford and Owen Sound last season. Ina little better than two months hockey will be in full swing again so now is the time to begin planning for a winning squad. LORNE SCHELL HAS BEEN ON LOCAL SQUAD FOR NINE YEARS
Nine years ago at the age of twelve Lorne “Porky” Schell started out with the local Junior squad as a pitcher or a short stop and since that time he has held one or the other of the two positions every year without fail. Born in Stouffville Lorne attended High School where he participated in all sporting activities including softball and hockey. After leaving school he began to concentrate on hardball and often night after night he might be seen working out with his brother Ken in the park or wherever they might find room to throw a ball around. Lorne, unlike his brother Ken, never cared to hold the decker back of the plate and this fact made it easier for the two brothers to get in a lot of practice as Lorne had a great desire to pitch. In his days of Junior ball Lorne starred with some of the other standout players of that day although a number of them were much older than himself. Such players as Minton, Jewett, Rouse, Holburn were among the boys on the team at that time. The first game that Lorne ever played was down in Markham. When asked about the hurling ability of the team the young star replied that there was no particular pitcher on the team at that time and anyone who thought he could throw some sort of curve or drop was given a try to make good. In all the days of his hurling success Lorne has only had one man receive his balls and that was his brother Ken and as Lorne jokingly explains this was used because brother ken was the only man who could keep his eyes on the terrific curves that criss-crossed in front of the batter. Lorne has always been one of the most consistent batters on the squad and this season was no exception. Lorne has never been a batter who wold swing for the fences but proved himself to be opposition enemy with perfect placed singles and doubles that set him up in scoring position when not on the mound but has never attempted any other place on the team.
As we glance over the files that go back through the years the name of Lorne Schell is plainly visible in the annals of Stouffville baseball history. Such headings appear through the pages “Junior Lead Bowmanville behind Four Hit Pitching of Lorne Schell,” ”Stouffville Wins as Schell in Top Form,” or “Lorne Schell holds Newmarket to Two Hits.”
As the games come and go we hope as we glance boer the starting lineup the name of Lorne “Porky” Schlemiel be seen either as the starting hurler on the mound or down at his regular spot at short always with that “never say die” look on his face and giving the pitcher on the opposing teams the same trouble as he has in years gone by.

REPRESENT CANADA AT “WORLD SERIES” PLOWING MATCH
Bob Timbers, well-known local member of this renowned family of plowmen, will represent the Dominion of Canada at the North American championship plowing match to be held this August at Bethany, Miss. Bob was selected by the Ontario Plowman’s Association, and is the second member of the family to be so honoured. Eleven years ago, Fred Timbers, deputy-reeve of Whitchurch Township, was the Canadian representative and won the coveted North American championship. The match will last three days, with our local son competing on August 16th. Robert is 24, and one of the youngest champions in the history of Canadian plowing events. He is married and has two children. He first made headlines on the Canadian plowing scene in 1948 when he was crowned king of the plowmen at the International match. That year he won a free trip to the British Isles. He has virtually walked off with honours at every match entered since 1948. It is estimated the 50,000 farmers and urbanites will attend the big match in Missouri. In addition to the plowing there will be a national soil conservation field day program, tractor rodeo, and
expert nimrods will be on hand to demonstrate how a well managed farm pool can produce the king of the small mouth bass fisherman dream about. The Americans regard their two-day affair as the “annual world series” for plowing matches.
Helen Snowball lined up with the local girls for the first time this season and should add power to the Stouffville squad. She took her place in left field and came across with one of the runs as Peaches took the game by a score of 9-7.
An all Japanese team which goes under the name of Best Cleaners made a real game for the local Red Sox on Wednesday night. The homesters defeated the visitors by a score of 5-2. The Japanese gave an expert exhibition of base running although their hitting ability was not the best. Jack Andrews did the hurling for the locals.
The local Red Sox went all out on Monday night when they handed Sunderland a 10-2 defeat. Lorne Schell did the hurling for the Homesters. Brother Ken came up with the best hits of the night connecting for two triples. These teams go at it again here on Thursday night in the last scheduled game of the season before the playoffs. LOCAL LADIES WIN DISTRICT TREBLES
A Stouffville bowling trio composed of Mrs. L. Wilson, Mrs. F. Crossen and Mrs. C. Boadway defeated Allandale on the Barrie greens on Thursday 17-10, to win the District Ladies Trebles. This is the second round in the provincial matches. Agincourt ladies defeated Tottenham 15-11, to capture the doubles. PEACHES PROTEST TO LEAGUE HEAD OVER EJECTION OF MANAGER AND PITCHER
The first protest to be filed this season was sent to the Markham Township Softball League secretary Ernie Appleton on Friday night by the Peaches Softball Club over a game played at Thornhill last week. The trouble all started when the plate umpire, a Thornhill man, was charged by the Peaches club with very poor calling and as the game went on the situation became more aggravated. The Peaches manager, Jack Warriner while standing in the third base coaching box found it impossible to restrain himself and longer and told the umpire to watch the balls a little closer. Without hesitation the plate umpire demanded that Manager Warriner should leave the game. At this curious turn of events, Neil Brown , lanky Peaches outfielder, questioned the umpires ruling and he also was told to remove himself from the bench. Without a coach and minus one of their star players Thornhill went on to edge Peaches 5-4. The ejection came in the third innings and for the rest of the game the calls continued to be one sided. manager Warriner notified the umpire that the game was being played under protest and immediately after the contest a letter stating the facts was presented to the secretary of the league. The umpiring in some of the games during this season has not been up to the mark, in this reporters opinion. Up to the present time the base umpiring had come up for the most criticism as any man standing around with his hands in his pockets was thrown into the game to make some hasty decisions which might mean a win or a loss to a team. Players who take the ball seriously should be given a fair try to prove their worth and unless the umpires will give individual batters and pitchers a square deal the future of the league is not all that bright.
Following the contest the p[late umpire was surrounded by angry players who demanded the reason for some of the decisions. These reasons will be heard when the League meeting comes up in the near future. Whether a re-play of the contest will be asked is the question but no doubt the umpires will be asked to to be so hasty with their decisions in ejecting p[layers and managers without a word of warning. What umpire is there in baseball that has not taken a small share of riding from both players and fans even when reasons for doing so are negligible.
In the other games played Unionville pulled up a little closer to second place Markham club by winning over their rivals 5-2. Buttonville defeated Claremont 6-3 to remain atop the league. HODGINS AND SCHELL HURL RED SOX TO WIN OVER PORT
Monday night was shuffle night at the ball park as manager Bob Hassard made a change in the lineup in the top of the fourth innings and sent some of the players who haven’t seen much action so far this season into the game. Dinty Hodgins who is attempting this year to make a comeback into the baseball limelight was thrown into the battle after hurler Lorne Schell had given his team a three-run lead. Chadwick replaced Ken Schell back of the plate and Walt Smith was given a chance to make good in the outfield. Lew Raxlin and Ward Edwards also took a turn at swinging the hickory. The visitors took a one run lead in the first innings on a wild throw by Jennings to Davis covering third. the runner who was streaking for the sack at the time quickly romped home although Davis did retrieve the ball in time to make a close play at the plate. in the homesters turn at bat Lorne Schell sizzled a grass cutter down to short stop who came up with the ball in time to make the out at first. Jennings went down pitcher to first but Hassard singled on an error as the pitcher tried to snag the ball with his bare hand. Ken Schell grounded out at third leaving Hassard stranded on base. The second innings saw hurler Lorne Schell really bear down to retire the side in order with two strike-outs and an easy grounder that was fielded by the pitcher for the put out. The locals got into the game in a scoring way in the bottom of the second as Cook received a free ticket to first. Cote sacrificed Cook to second and Davis singled to bring Cook in for the tying run. The third innings saw the Red Sox open up with some power hitting coupled with some costly Port Perry errors to score three runs. Both Lorne Schell and Hassard singled on errors and K. Schell and Cook duplicated the trick to bring two runners in. Cote walked but an infield fly with bases loaded by Raxlin made the batter automatically out. Davis retired the side. The fourth innings saw the big switch as Hodgins and Chadwick replaced the two Schell brothers as the battery. The sudden change of pace balls had the batters somewhat bewildered at first as Hodgins seemed to concentrate more on curves than speed. Although the first batter to face him went down on strikes the next four hit safely. Two walks followed which totalled three runs to tie the score. These runs were far from earned however, as both Raxlin and Hassard committed errors that didn’t help the situation any. The local really leaned into their bats in the their half of the innings and collected three more runs to take a 7-4 lead. Edwards, Hassard and Chadwick came across on two walks, a double and a single. Hodgins held the visitors off the score sheet in the fifth but in the sixth they collected one run. The first batter went down but the next hit safely into centre field. Batter number three singled on an error followed by another single to score one runner. Hurler Hodgins struck out the fifth man and retired the side as the next batter grounded out to L. Schell to Jennings. The locals came up with what proved to be the game winning run in the bottom of the sixth. Hassard singled and Hodgins came up with a double on an error to drive Hassard in Chadwick, Cote and Smith all went down on that order. The seventh innings saw neither team score a run but in the visitors turn at bat in the eighth they came close to pulling the game out of the fire. Only for a sensational shoe string effort by left fielder Walt Smith with the tiring run pounding around third held the homesters in the lead and gave them the game. The final score read Stouffville 8, Port Perry Perry 7. TOWN TEAM DROPS GAME TO RURAL GALS
Peaches girls came up with a strong game to down their Stouffville rivals 9-7 last week in a good contest tat was in doubt until the final batter went down. Stouffville had been the victor in the first game by a 12-9 count but the peaches victory squared the home mad home series between the two clubs. Eleanor Reid came up with the first good hit of the game in the first innings pounding out a double. Frances Meyers followed with a single to bring the runner in. Pitcher Myrtle Staley had no trouble with the next three batters and Stouffville came in to bat one run down. Jean Thorvaldson received a free ticket to first base and Helen Goudie connected with a four bagger to bring in two runs. Gertie Drewery flied to short and Joan Haynes lifted a long high ball into the waiting hands of Marion Reid to retire the side. Peaches big innings came in the top of the second when they came across with five runs. Marion Reid, Carley Grove, Maureen Mustard, Fern Hoover and Eleanor Reid were the big guns. Neither club scored a run in the third and fourth innings but Peaches added two more in the fifth with singles by Nelda Elson, Marion Reid, and Maureen Mustard. In the sixth Peaches added another run as Joan Haynes was put in to replace Myrtle Staley on the mound. Frances Meyers scored on a single by Marilyn Johnston. Stouffville really
sprang to life in the bottom of the sixth but their rally fell two runs shy. Four walks and a double by Pat Lehman along with singles by Joan Haynes, Jean Thorvaldson and Marg Barry accounted for the 4 run
rally. Carley Grove who had hurled a good game for Peaches was replaced by Florence Anderson. neither team could come up with a run in the seventh and final innings and the score remained Peaches 9, Stouffville 7. ERRORS, PITCHING, GIVES PORT PERRY 7-4 VICTORY
The locals were set back on their heels somewhat on Friday night as Port Perry under the able hurling of Bill Harper handed the homesters a 7-4 defeat. The Red Sox committed a total of five disastrous errors and although the Port infield was not airtight by any means they gave hurler Harper enough support to win. Earl Cook put on an equally sensational pitching display on the mound but his backing from some of the players was decidedly weak at times. A few players aren’t giving everything they’ve got and when they meet opposition that has what it takes the flaws show to an even greater extent. The locals have the material on the squad if they just work together to produce a winner. In another few weeks the playoffs will be here and although the grouping isn’t definite there should be some word in the near future.
On Monday night Stouffville journeyed to the Yonge Street district but could not match the hitting power of their rivals and went down by a 13-2 score. Mytle Staley hurled five innings while Joan Haynes came in for the final two. A couple of errors in the field let in nearly half the runs. Two spectacular catches were made by Helen Goudie on second and Carolyn Haynes in the outfield. the homesters fell down badly in the hitting department as time and tome again they would swing after he ball was in the catcher’s glove On Wednesday night Stouffville girls go to Agincourt for a game under the floodlights and on Friday night Aurora girls are the visitors to the local park.
August 23 1951 LOCAL PLOWMAN ALLOWED IN EXHIBITION CONTEST ONLY
Bethany, Mo, August 16 — A Canadian champion plowman arrived her today from Stouffville, Ontario, believing he was entered in the National contest here tomorrow. But officials had 25-year old Robert Timbers slated for “exhibition” plowing only. He will work in the contest with the 20 other entries. Bur even if he outpoints them all, a United States winner will be selected instead. An expense award of $100 equal to highest cash prize given a national winner, helps to modify his disappointment, he said, late today. And he will get the chance to match the national winner later this year in an international plowing contest in Ontario. Officials had good reason to limit his plowing to exhibition only. he comes from a family of champion plowmen. His father was a champion of Canada. His uncle was a champion of Canada and United States both. Leo Drake from Memphis, Mo., was awarded the championship in competition and along with Graham Stewart, Plainfield, Ill., who will stood second will visit Canada in October to plow in the international match.
Lindsay Opens Final Round here Thursday Night
On Thursday night the first game of the Tri-County final round robin series will get under way with Lindsay Walkwoods being the visiting team. Both teams will be treated to a good playing fields as the local diamond is one of the best around the district, and Lindsay will have their new ball park that can equal anything in some of the larger cities. The locals have met their rivals on one occasion before and handed them a 6-1 defeat. The game will get under way at 6 o’clock sharp with an admission charge being 35c. it should be a good game to see so come pout and cheer on your favourites as they head down the home stretch towards another tri-county championship.
Some of the local badminton enthusiasts around the town are forming a club for the coming year in which they intend to enter a league with Willowdale, Aurora, Richmond Hill and some other towns of similar size. They are holding a dance on Sept. 22nd with their organization meeting on the 24th. The open night is being held in the Legion Hall on Oct. 1st. All games will be played in the hall and a membership of about 35c is hoped for.
Stouffville Red Sox edged Sunderland 5-4 on Monday night in a benefit game played in Sunderland for Grayden Hogg who was injured at port Perry tournament. Porky Schell hurled a four hitter and was aided by a three bagger hit from the bat of ted cadieux. A total of $87.00 was collected. Sunderland presented an all-star line-up for the contest while the locals carried openly nine men. GREEN FULL FOR FRIDAY’S BOWLING TOURNAMENT

Peaches girls came through on Monday night to tie up their series with Stouffville and force a deciding game to be played this week. no doubt this has been on of the weirdest series ever to be played in this district with both teams winning their home run games. Stouffville took the first contest 14-11 but Peaches came back to square the series by taking the second game 20-5. The locals caught fire here on Friday night as they handed the seventh concession crew a decisive 18-3 defeat but once again Peaches put themselves on even terms with the rivals by edging them 10-9 at Unionville on Monday night. In the fourth game Stouffville scored one run in the first innings as Erla Holden singled. Helen Snowball flied to centre field but Gertie Drewery received a free ticket to first. Myrtle Staley singled to bring Erla across the plate with one run. Jean Thorvaldson singled to load the bases but Joan Haines flied to Carley Grove as left field for the second out, Carolyn Haines singled but Marion Reid cut the runner off at the plate to retire the side.
Peaches pulled into the lead in their turn at bat as Nelda Elson, Pat Smith and Eleanor Reid came in to score. With two down Marilyn Johnston doubled, Maureen Mustard singled and Marian Reed walked to load the bases but Carley Grove flied to Myrtle Staley to end the rally. Pat Lehman, Erla Holden and Helen Snowball went down in order in the top half of the second but Peaches continued their base running as they added two more runs to their total. Pat Smith and Fern Hoover crossed the plate for the rural squad runs. A double by Helen Snowball brought Peggy White in with one run to make the score 5-2 but once again Peaches added runs to their total as Pat Smith, Eleanor Reid, and Marilyn Johnston scored. Joan Haines came in to relieve Myrtle Staley on the mound and held Peaches to but one more run. Although Stouffville was trailing 9-3 the game was far from ova re as six runs came across the plate to tie the game. Since the contest was so close the umpire decided that seven innings should be completed and although the players had to play almost by moonlight the ball game went on. Helen Snowball and Gertie rDewey went down on order but Peaches with one down managed to get Eleanor Reid on base with a single. Carley Grove reached first on an error and Florence Anderson walked to load the base. On the next pitch the ball went wild and Eleanor Reid stole home to end the game. COOK HURLS SENSATIONAL TWO HITTER FOR SEMI-FINAL BASEBALL VICTORY
On Wednesday night of last week the local crew put on the most thrilling exhibition of ball we have seen this season as they edged Sunderland 2-1 to take the semi-final round and advance into the round
robin series with the remaining five winners. Local hurler earl Cook put on a dazzling display of pitching for the homesters allowing only two hits in the entire game and striking out twelve batters. One man after another went down swinging as the big ex-pro used his fast ball to good advantage. While Cook was proving his mastery on the mound the team stood solidly behind him in an air tight game. Both teams went scoreless in the first two innings but the locals went one up in the second. Lorne Schell lifted a long fly ball into left field that just touched the out-stretched glove of the fielder to go over the fence for a triple. Jennings received a free pass to first and Hassard brought Schell across on a short grounder. Ken Schell came through with a nice single and as Jennings rounded third in a race with the ball for the plate catcher Jim Beeton do Sunderland snagged the throw and picked off the runner as he slid into home. Sunderland tied up the ball game in the top of the fourth inning as a single and a double brought in the tying run. The play at the plate was very close but the ball slipped from the glove of catcher Ken Schell to let the run score. The Red Sox came through with their winning run in the bottom of the fourth as Cook lined up a long well hit ball over the left field fence for a triple. It appeared for a time he would be left on the third sack as Smith and Edwards went down on strikes but Lew Raxlin came up with that all important single bringing Cook in to break the deadlock and win the game. On the throw to the plate Raxlin streaked to second but was left there as the next batter went down. For the remainder of the game hurler Cook threw everything in the book at the Sunderland batters and they just couldn’t cope with his pitching skill. Two batters went down swinging in the fifth, two more in the six and another in the seventh. In the eighth the visitors began to throw their reserves into the close battle and they like the others waved the bat aimlessly at the curving ball. Facing elimination in their final turn at bat in the top of the ninth Cook struck out his twelfth batter of the night and the other two batters flied to short stop Lorne Schell to end the game. The Sunderland squad put on the best show this season as Tommy Welsh went all the way on the mound for the visitors. He allowed six hits and gave up five walks. The locals now enter the round robin finals when they meet the remaining five winners.

The local girls joined together on Monday night after their game with Elgin Mills in a good old-fashioned corn and weiner roast held at the farm of Mr. Gar Lehman. The entire team shared the good time.
Stouffville girls are planning an exhibition game with Agincourt some night next week under the floodlights. It is really the locals home game but considering the lighting system and the playing field the homesters agreed to play away from home. STOUFFVILLE BOWLERS WIN WATTS TROPHY
Representatives from Agincourt, Claremont, Highland Creek, Newmarket, Aurora, Uxbridge and Markham along with Stouffville joined in the bowling tournament for the Watts Trophy donated by Mr. and Mrs. Mervyn Watts of Stouffville and put up for competition for the first time.

Aurora skipped by Mr. Patterned was second with three wins while Earl Beare representing Claremont, came in third with three wins. Highland Creek club came in high with two wins with Aurora gaining high with one win. LOCAL GIRLS DROP TWO GAMES OF FINAL SERIES TO ELGIN MILLS
Elgin Mills displayed their power to local fans on Monday night as they handed the homesters an 11-6 defeat at the end on six innings. Stouffville came up with nice plays but the visitors have the power well spread over the entire squad to make them tough to beat. Both squads were a p[layer short at game time so coach George Staley agreed to play with eight until the reinforcements arrived. The Yonge St. crew collected five runs in the first innings, one in the fourth, one in the fifth and four in the sixth. With one down in the top of the seventh the visitors added seven more runs but these were crossed out as the game was called on account of darkness and the score reverted back to the sixth.
A walk, four doubles and a single accounted for the five run lead built up by Elgin Mills in the opening innings. Stouffville came back in the second with two runs as Peggy White singled and Joan Haynes connected with hit home run. Pat Lehman, Carolyn Haynes and Helen Snowball went down in order to put an end to the rally. The locals pulled off a nice play in the fourth innings as the first Elgin Mills batter singled and on a hit into centre field Carolyn Haynes fielded the ball and threw to Helen Goudie covering the bag for an automatic force out. The third batter singled driving in the run but on the attempt to steal to third she was picked off on a throw Bertie Drewery to Helen Snowball.
The homesters had their best innings in the sixth when they collected three runs. Peggy White and Joan Haynes singled and Helen Snowball doubled on an error to score two runs. Helen Goudie tripled on an
error bringing in the runner but she was left stranded as the next batter struck out. Elgin Mills really brought their batting power into play in the top of the seventh as they gathered seven runs with only one down. The umpire then called the game on account of darkness. Myrtle Staley hurled six innings of the game but was relieved by Joan Haynes for the final two innings. Stouffville go to Elgin Mills on Wednesday night of this week with the return game if needed back in the local park next week.

Elgin Mills are again the champions for another year in the ladies Softball League. LOCAL RED SOX RECORD WOULD MAKE MAPLE LEAFS RED-FACED
Jos. Becker and Co., Toronto Maple Leafs, wouldn’t be looking in vain for a playoff spot in the International League if they could produce a record such as that which Stouffville Intermediate Baseball Club has racked up in the last two seasons. During the season 1950-51, the Stouffville club has played ninety games in which they won 69, lost 12, and tied 9. Up to date this year, the team has played .826 baseball. During the 1950 run, the team engaged in 58 games, winning 46, losing 7, and tying 5, showing an average of .848 ball. This year in 1951, the Red Sox have played 32 games. they have won 23, lost 5 and tied 4 for an average of .783. The team is comprised entirely of local sons and is deserving of much better support from the local ball fans than is forthcoming on many occasions. The next home game for the Red Sox in the current round robin playoff will be Friday, Sept. 14th. The Labour Day game here has a good ball game, and quite a satisfactory turnout watched the affair under perfect weather conditions. Let’s see this increased attendance continued throughout the balance of the playoffs. RED SOX TAKE PLAYOFF LEAD DUNK CAMBRAY LABOUR DAY
A good crowd rallied to the support of the Red Sox on Monday afternoon and saw the locals jump to the lead in their round robin finals as they handed Cambray a 9-4 defeat. the victory was the third straight for the Red Sox and moved them out in front of the remaining five clubs who have all dropped a least one game to date. Hurler Lorne Schell and second baseman Ken Laushway turned in sensational performances for their team completing over a dozen put outs. Laushway also came up with a good game at the bat hitting three for five.Starting pitcher Lorne Schell had the game well in hand all the way and although tiring slightly towards the end of the ninth inning contest he remained on the mound and completed the game.
The Red Sox took the lead in the second innings and were never headed from that time on.They collected two runs in the second and added two more in the fifth, four in the sixth, and one more in the eighth. The visitors connected for one run in the sixth, one in the seventh and two in the ninth. Both teams went scoreless in the first innings but the locals jumped into the driver’s seat in their next turn at bat. Cadieux was given a base hit with a pitched ball and Chadwick came up with an extra base hit as he pulled up on third and also credited himself with an R.B.I. driving Cadieux across with the first run of the game. Jennings struck out but Davis grounded out short to first. On the play Chadwick came romping home with run number two. Raxlin was called out by the base umpire on a very close play at first to retire the side. Hurler Schell found himself in hot water in the top of the third when he was hit for three safeties to load the bases with but one down. However, he settled down striking out the next man to face him and number three grounded out to leave all three men stranded on base. In the fourth innings hurler Lorne Schell took care of his first man to face him as he grounded out to the mound. The second batter singled into right field but number three hit a grass cutter into the waiting glove of Laushway who forced the runner at second but the attempted double play was too late. Lorne Schell used his tricky drop curve to good advantage to send the third batter down swinging to again hold the visitors off the score sheet.
The locals added two more runs to their total in the fifth as Lew Raxlin, Laushway and L. Schell all hit safely. In the sixth a free ticket to Jennings, a single by Davis, and three more safe drives by Raxlin, Laushway and K. Schell brought home three more runs. The visitors came up with their best hit in the seventh as the first man up slammed a triple through the fence. He was later brought across to make the score read 9-2 for the Red Sox. Cambray staged what appeared to be their big rally in the top of the ninth and although they managed to collect two more runs the visitors fell short of getting back in the game.

A combination of Stouffville girls and Peaches made the trip to Richmond Hill last week for an All Star game with Elgin Mills. For one of the few times this season the champions were beaten by a score of 9-7. Jean Haynes did the hurling for the All Stars with Gertie Drewery back of the plate. Myrt. Staley held down first base with Helen Goudie on second. Carolyn Haynes played short stop with Pat Smith on third. Marg Smith, Eleanor Reid and Marion Reid covered the outfield. A home run for Gertie Drewery with the bases loaded and another four bagger by Eleanor Reid gave the All Stars a decided edge. Aurora failed to show up with any players to take part in the game.

Bill Shill came through with some nice hurling for Sonya and held the heavy hitters well in check for the greater part of the game. Manager Bob Hassard was back in his old spot in the infield and came through with a couple os spectacular put outs. The one was a neat pick up and the other a sizzling one handed catch with the bases loaded to hold the opposition stranded. After a two weak absence from their home on Friday night for a big game with Sutton. The following Monday Sonya come to town for their return game. Sonya have given the homesters the closest game to date and Sutton with George Holborne on the mound are always dangerous so the next home series should pack a lot of thrills for the supporting home town fans.

The recent exhibition games staged between the local girl’s ball club and Agincourt have drawn good crowds to the Agincourt park and the girls wind up the season with a final contest on Wednesday night of
this week. In the last game played the homesters under the standout hurling of pitcher Myrtle Staley came through with a 8-7 victory. Gloria Woolhead came through with a spectacular performance with two
home runs to her credit. Helen Goudie came up with a four bagger as did Gertie Drewery to aid the Stouffville win.

Myrtle Staley has a total of sixteen strike outs to her credit as one batter after another went down swinging.
The big wheels of the ice plant in the Stouffville Arena began to turn again this week after being silent for just five months, and the place will be open for business this week for another winter’s operation. The machines generate one hundred and twenty-five horsepower which are capable of frosting things up to the extent of more than fifty tons of ice a day. A big portion of the arena has been repainted inside, further new equipment has been added to the snack bar, and everything is ready for another bang up season of hockey and pleasure skating. RED SOX AWAIT WINNERS OF COLBORNE-NAPANEE SERIES OBA INTERMEDIATE PLAYOFFS
A little light has been thrown on the O.B.A. set up during the past few days and according to the league the Red Sox will meet the winners of the Colborne-Napanee series which is being played off at the present time. Apparently no definite schedule has been set up by the O.B.A. League but as soon as a winner is reported they are immediately lined up with another squad who are standing by or the winner of some other group. Stouffville was notified some time ago that they would be given a bye into O.B.A. finals but up to the present time they had not received any word on how soon their games would commence. As you will remember last year the locals were defeated by Waterloo who went on to win the Championship. It will be interesting to see how they make out this year.
Bob Hassard who has been holding down a spot on the Stouffville Red Sox ball club left on Sunday to join the Pittsburg Hornets farm club of the Toronto Maple Leafs. He will train in Niagara Falls. RED SOX HOLD TWO POINT LEAD
As the round robin Tri-County League playoffs near completion it appears that Stouffville and Sutton will be deadlocked for the top rung. At the present time the local Red Sox have finished their ten games schedule and have a total of 16 points to their credit made up of 8 wins and 2 losses. Sutton are close on their heels with 7 wins and 2 losses for 14 points. Sutton has played one game less than Stouffville. A tie for first place looks likely and in that case a playoff series between these two clubs will probably be called. CLIPPERS PRACTICE THURSDAY NIGHT
Grand Opening of the arena so far as the public is concerned will be public skating this Saturday night. There will be skating again on Wednesday of next week. beginning Thursday, hours will be occupied with renting of hockey practice hours. The local Senior Club will start to get the kinks out under the watchful eye of Coach Bangay this Thursday night.

LOCAL COUPLE WINS SEASON’S BOWLING PRIZE
The local bowlers have just completed their eleven games tournament which started in June and extended to the end of September. The winner over the entire bowling schedule was to receive a set of bowling balls but since some of the competitors found it hard to complete in the entire eleven game tournament the first eight games were taken into account. Mr. Elmer Daniels walked off with the top honours in the men’s class and Mrs. Fred Crossen, his bowling partner, was the top lady on the season’s play. Mrs. Carl Boadway and Mr. Gordon Leman were the runners up. Eleven games out of the twelve game schedule were completed with only one game cancelled because of the weather conditions. According to some of the bowlers the crowd were quite good but the turn out depended entirely on the weather man.
Harry Shuttleworth of Stouffville, one of the towns most avid fisherman, was proudly displaying a four-pound steel head which he caught last week in Collingwood. The four pounder sometimes referred to as a landlocked salmon, had plenty of fight, and broke one of the steel hooks in Mr. Shuttleworth’s plug.
Stouffville may have an entry in the O.R.H.A. hockey association this winter as well as their Senior O.H.A. club. Last year’s Musselman Lake crew are understood to have gained a sponsor in town and the team is interested in entering this Rural Association. Such clubs as Brougham, Brooklin, and others would make good local competition for such an arrangement. Both the former Musselman’s outfit and Brougham took to the ice here for their initial practice. DISCUSS FORMATION OF HOUSE LEAGUE
A meeting is being held this week by the Boy’s Work Committee of the Stouffville lions Club under the chairmanship of ken Wagg to discuss the possibility of forming a house league for Stouffville young hockeyists this winter. In the past, the club sponsored one of two boys’ teams, but this system, it was felt by many, is only benefitting a very few boys, and many of them from some distance away. The house league, as proposed, would take all boys between the approximate ages of 10 and 14 and operate a four-team group. Several local businessmen have signified their willingness to outfit a team of these younger lads. In addition possibly one O.M.H.A. squad would be organized in the Midget group. LOCAL GIRLS EDGE AGINCOURT 4-3 IN FINAL EXHIBITION CONTEST
Stouffville girls ended their four game exhibition series with Agincourt on Wednesday night of last week edging their southern rivals by a slim 4-3 score. In the four games played the homesters were victorious in three. Joan Haynes did the hurling for the locals and aside from a four bagger by Gloria Woolhead in the fifth innings the Agincourt batters were held well in heck. She was credited with seven strike outs. Vera Butler went all the way for Agincourt. Peggy White deserves special mention for her terrific work at short stop. Helen Goudie and Blanche Hornsby put Stouffville out in front in the first innings as they crossed the plate for two runs. Gertie Drewery added another in the second before the Agincourt squad started to make their hits count. They counted two runs in the fourth and one in the fifth for their three run total. Joan Haynes crossed the plate with what proved the winning run the the local’s half of the fifth and the score remained 4-3. Nelda Elson showed the best form at bat for Stouffville getting three safe hits in three trips to the plate. Myrtle Staley and Blanche Hornsby hit safely on two occasions. The local girls have done well this year reaching the finals in their own league and standing up with the best of clubs in a number of exhibition games. According to the Coach George Staley a stronger bid will be made next year as his squad have gained much valuable practice and training since the regular schedule ended. Coach Staley deserves a good deal of credit for the time and effort he gave in bringing his team into contending form and it is hoped that he will be around to lend a hand when another softball year rolls around. PLAYERS RALLY TO CLIPPER PRACTICES
From the selection of high calibre players that skated during the Clippers first practice sessions it would appear that the local team should have a formidable squad for the coming season. A good number of last year’s crew were again on the ice as well as numerous new faces in Clipper uniform. Some of the players back again from last year are Minton, Clarke, Sayliss, Hopper, N. Bangay, Machin, Hochberg, Stark, Couch, Warriner and others. Some of the new faces were Jack Leonard of last year’s Toronto Allistons, Ronnie Bell, Jack Watson and Bert Baker of Markham Millionaires, Jackie Thomas who lined up with the Clippers a couple of season’s back and Don Campbell who played with Aurora last season. Morley petch, star defenceman with Unionville Jets last year was also trying out. Coach Bangay put on the skates and pad and worked out with the rest of the squad. It is likely that Bob will centre a line this year. A few exhibition contests will likely be arranged for the near future when the boys begin to round into shape. IT’S RED SOX AND COLBORNE OBA INTERMEDIATE PLAYDOWN
Stouffville Red Sox will meet Colborne in their first round in O.B.A. competition with the first game possibly some time this week. Colborne earned the right to advance up another rung in the O.B.A. ladder by downing Napanee 10-1 in their third game. Bruce Lehman’s Delhi Tobacco-men are still in the running, playing off with Durham, after eliminating Watford. Chippewa and Milton started a series last week, as well as Creemore and Horning’s Mills.
There is no doubt that the Red Sox will meet some tough opposition in their quest for the O.B.A. championship won last year by Waterdown. It would be quite an accomplishment if the local club could bring two championships to Meanwhile it is hoped that the homesters will receive strong support in both the TriCounty League championship battle and the O.B.A. playoffs. NEXT WEEK WILL DECIDE FATE OF NEW CIRCLE RULE
A new face-off rule adopted by the N.H.L. may worm its way into the amateur book by October 9, according to Clarence Campbell of the major league. Campbell is reported to be enthusiastic over the rule which eliminates the two end circles at the sides of the net in favour of a 20-foot circle in front of the goal. Purpose of the new rule is to avoid frequent face-offs in the end zones, caused by “freezing” of the puck against the boards by players of the defending team. Now, if the puck is frozen, the referees must face off directly in front of the goal-keeper. This naturally is something of a hazard for the defending team, particularly the goalie.

HOWARD DONER DARK HORSE IN PROVINCIAL MATCH
York County plowmen to the number of 24 competed most successfully at the International Plowing Match at Woodstock last week and carried off most of the major awards including two overseas trips, a first and a second in the two inter-county contests for teams of two boys as well as two top cash awards by one of the machinery companies, 12 firsts made ten seconds and 26 other prizes. The most coveted prizes, the two Esso overseas trips were won by Norman Tyndall of Richmond Hill in the tractor class and Eugene Timbers of Milliken in walking plows. Eugene’s father, Ed Timbers, won an overseas trip the first year they were awarded by a tea company but due to the outbreak of the war was given cash in lieu of the trip. Eugene was a member of the county team this year. Norman Tyndall, son of pioneer plowman, Stanley Tyndall of Richmond Hill, is president of the York County Junior Farmers. In the keenly contested inter-county competition Agricultural Representative, W.N. Cockburn had teams of two boys entered in each. On Thursday Eugene Timbers and Merle Timbers of Aurora nosed out Haldimand for top place and on Friday the York boys, Bruce Timbers of Stouffville and Howard Doner of Stouffville took second place between Haldimand and Ontario County in a class of 18 entries (36 boys). Our boys plowed even scoring lands with only half a point between them. The dark horse of the York plowman perhaps was 20 year old Howard Doner of Stouffville who though plowing in his first match, won his class of 29 entries on Wednesday and on Thursday took the red ribbon with 54 plowman in his class — many years of experience. Howard was coached by that veteran plowman Floyd Steckley of Stouffville with whom he has been employed before buying a farm of his own. With these two wins and a second in the inter county Howard tied with Bob Timbers for the highest points in the match and each received a substantial cheque a shalf of the combined prizes.

The 1951 Lawn Bowling season was closed last Thursday evening when the local clubs held a potluck supper and presentation of prizes. They were won by the president of the ladies’ club, Mrs. Fred Crossen, and the president of the men’s club, Mr. Elmer Daniels, who were partners for the season in the mixed doubles competition. The runners-up were Mrs. Carl Boadway and Mr. Gordon Lemon. Mr. Mervyn Watts of the Games Committee presented the prizes, a set of four bowls to Mr. Crossen, donated by Mr. Cecil Hendricks of the Maple Leaf Auto Sales; and a nine McBrine bowl case to Mr. Daniels which he accepted in place of a set of bowls, donated by the club. Both Mrs. Crossen and Mr. Daniels thanked the club and spoke briefly. Mr. Harry W. Sanders, one of the veteran bowlers, thanked the Ladies’ Club for their share in the season’s activities. STOUFFVILLE RUGBY SQUAD BLANKS MARKHAM
On Thursday, Oct 11, Stouffville High School’s football squad journeyed to Markham High where they again donned their fighting togs and pounded out a seventeen to nothing victory. Markham kicked off to Stouffville, then Chadwick threw his football machine into high gear and on the third play of the game flung a forward pass to Pete Smith to open the scoring. The convert failed but Stouffville led five to nothing. In the second quarter Chadwick again passed to Smith for another five points and added a convert with the same play a pass from Chadwick to Pete. Markham fought back hard, but Stouffville having tasted victory in their first touchdowns continued their fine playing and near the end of the half pushed across another T.D. on the finest play of the game. Chadwick took the snap at his quarterback spot, flipped it to Smith who galloped around the end, decoyed two Markham tacklers then lateraled to Frisby, Graham tucked the ball under his arm and ran past the opposition to score. The convert again failed. The first half ended with Stouffville leading sixteen to nothing. In the second half Markham opened up and played good ball to limit Stouffville to one point, when Clifton Morris recovered a fumble by Markham after Chadwick had kicked the ball into the end zone. This ended the scoring but both teams battled hard to break the other’s defense. Ed Murphy, playing fine ball, batted down two passes to keep the big goose egg for Markham on the scoreboard. Glenn Thompson went high to knock down a pass that had touchdown written all over it. Little Bill (Murphy) and big Pete (Smith) along with the line stopped try after try by Markham. The Chadwick came close when he intercepted a pass and ran fifty yard before being brought down. the game ended a few moments later and Stouffville High had won its second game of the season seventeen to nothing.

Public School children will be admitted free of charge to the first hockey game to be played in the Stouffville Arena on Saturday night of this week. People’s Credit Jewelers are to be the visitors on this occasion.
Much interest has been shown by the young hockey enthusiasts around town in the forming of a house league in which all boys who desire to play the game could join in the sport. A number of meetings concerning the setting up of such a league have been held although a no definite agreement has been reached. it is expected that more word will be forthcoming in the near future. INTERMEDIATE PLAYERS WANTED
Boys of any age who have a desire to play hockey this winter are asked to join i practice with the Stouffville Intermediate Maple Leafs on Thursday night of this week from 7 to 8 o’clock. This team will either form part of a four team league or enter the O.R.H.A. for the coming season. A squad from MacLean-Hunter at Lansing have shown interest in the group and if sufficient player strength can be found from some of the neighbouring towns and villages no doubt a profitable group could be formed. Such a hockey set up was organized in Uxbridge a few years back and was operated with much success. More word should be forthcoming next week when the interest around the district is seen. There are many players around the community who would be willing to play hockey if they could find a team on which to play. Anyone interested is asked to be at the Stouffville Arena on Thursday night at 7 o’clock to talk over the situation. CLIPPERS TO OPEN HOCKEY SEASON THIS SATURDAY NIGHT
Stouffville Clippers will swing into action on Saturday night this week in the first game of the 1951-52 hockey season. The locals will pit their strength against Peoples’ Credit Jewelers of the Toronto Mercantile Group in the contest that should give Coach Bangay some idea of how his squad will line up for the coming Senior schedule. Some new faces will be seen in Clipper uniform this year in a move to strengthen the club for the tough competition that lies ahead. Bud Watson, brother of Jack Watson who starred for the past few years with the Markham Millionaires, is expected to make the squad. The two Watsons and Ronnie Bell have been working together in practice to form a fast stepping trio. The goal tending situation which has been the big problem is expected to be well looked after. Norm Stunden worked out with the local club on Friday night and Frogley, last season with Aurora, may also make a bid for the goal tending chores. Ross Hochberg who has always shown considerable stickhandling ability will be moved up to the forward line along with Polly Minton, Nick Bangay, George Stark, Hal Gibson, George Stevenson, Jack Watson, Bud Watson and Ronnie Bell. Morley Petch, Bert Baker, Les Clarke, Jim Machin and Herbie Rose will all see rearguard action in the first game. All the above players have not signed a contract for the coming hockey season but will be trying out and will probably don a sweater for the opening exhibition contest. RED SOX ENTER O.B.A. FINALS EDGE COLBORNE IN THIRD GAME
Behind the sensational pitching power of hurler Earl Cook the Red Sox gained the right to enter the O.B.A. provincial playoffs with Delhi Tobaccomen. After Colborne took the opening contest 2-1 the locals
came back to completely out hit their rivals in the second game to even the series. The third and final game was played on neutral ground with Bowmanville being the scene of the do-or-die battle. For the game Stouffville sent their veteran right hander Earl Cook to the mound to match curves and drops with Colborne ace Bill Ball. Taylor scored the first run for the Red Sox but Colborne tied the count when
Carl Higginbottom romped home. Stouffville went into the lead in the third innings as Lorne Schell received a free ticket to first and was brought across as Ken Schell singled. Colborne fought back to the even the score in the fourth and from then on it was anybody’s game. The Red Sox went into the lead once again in the sixth as Ken Schell reached first on an error. Cook and Laushway connected for safe hits and Cadieux walked as Ken Schell came in to score. Taylor came through with what proved to be the winner in the seventh and although Colborne scored in the eighth they could not force the game into extra innings. A double in the ninth by Colborne after two batters had gone down by the strike out route kept the locals on their toes but the next hitter popped out to retire the side. Stouffville Red Sox now advance into the O.B>A. provincial finals with Delhi providing the opposition.

LOCAL RUGBY SQUAD DROPS SECOND GAME TO RICHMOND HILL
On Monday, Oct. 29, Stouffville High School Rugby Team lost their second straight game to Richmond Hill. This brings the won and lost column to two victories and two defeats. After a good showing in
their first two games with decisive victories under their belts, Stouffville marched into Richmond Hill but came back dragging their tails and a 30-12 score in favour of “them other guys.” But spirit was still high and the defeat was passed off with “wait ‘til the next game.” Well the “next” game has come and gone and the score is even worse, 28-6 and not in favour of “good old ourside” either. Richmond Hill started fast with a sleeper play that had the locals fooled completely, and from then on it was plaid to see it was their
game. Before the first quarter was over Jones had collected himself a pair of touchdowns, with Dodds throwing to Granger for the first convert and to Creelman for the second. The second quarter told the same story, Hart racked up another T.D. for “the hill” and Keffer passed to Jarret for the extra point. In the third, Keffer intercepted a Stouffville pass and went all the way, but Stouffville rallied and blocked the convert. The fourth quarter started the same way with R.H. in complete control unto Stouffville pulled a surprise play (by surprise we mean surprise to everybody , including Stouffville). Graham Frisby playing quarter instead of his usual halfback position, flung a feeble forward to Smith who was surrounded by enemy players, but he somehow broke loose and scored. The convert failed. In the last few minutes of play, Pete Smith tackled Dodds in his own end zone and gave Stouffville another point. Richmond Hill 28, Stouffville 6. CLIPPERS DEFEAT NEWMARKET 9-3 IN RUGGED CONTEST
Stouffville Clippers handed Newmarket a double setback in their home and home exhibition series last week, defeating the Intermediate rivals 12-3 and 9-3. The first game was a rough, hard-hitting contest
played before some 700 fans in Newmarket arena. Tempers flared on numerous occasions keeping Referee Laushway busy through the entire sixty minutes of p[lay. The return game was a carry over of the previous game with stiff checks and heavy boarding featuring the game. The Clippers proved themselves to be far superior as they jumped into a four goal lead in the first period. The line of Rumney, Gibson and Minton started for the Clippers and seemed to work to good advantage. Gibson started the ball rolling at the two minute mark of the opening frame from Baker, and Jack Watson put the locals up two with a neat tally from Bell and Rose. Midway through the period Gibson again sailed in on Tunney in the Newmarket cage to sink the rubber from Minton and Petch. Coach Bob Bangay netted the last goal of the frame on a smooth passing effort with Ronnie Bell and Jack Watson. Tunney in the Newmarket cage was called upon to make some twelve stops while Frogley in the Clipper net kicked the rubber aside on but one occasion. Defenceman Don Campbell picked a pass from Jack Watson to open the scoring in the second twenty minutes as he fired a low shot into the corner by Cook who was called on pt relieve Tunney in the Newmarket net. The sixth Clipper goal saw Bob Bangay carry through the Newmarket squad and flick a pass to Ronnie Bell. Bell fired to Campbell at the blueline who let drive with a hard shot. Jack Watson standing off the corner of the net deflected the puck the puck into the cage. the homesters scored two more goals before the visitors could break the ice. J. Rumney blinked the light from Bud Watson, and Gibson completed his scoring with another goal three minutes later from Minton. With Petch serving a minor penalty Sheuchuk picked up a pass at the blueline and fired a low shot into the net by Frogley. Gibson of Newmarket scored fifteen seconds after the opening of the final period from Sheuchuk but bud Watson got that one back from Bob Bangay at the nine minute mark on a well planned play. Johnson ended the scoring for the night netting Newmarket’s third goal at 13.36. Although the checking was heavy there was only one outbreak of fighting as Gibson of of the Clippers and Thoms of Newmarket drew majors. Sheuchuk is still the driving force for Newmarket taking part in two of the three tallies and proving a power of strength on the blueline. These two teams meet again when the regular schedule gets underway and as the Newmarket squad get a few practices under their belts they will no doubt give the local Clippers some close games.

Good news has reached the Clipper that Norm Stunden, flashy netminder with Markham Millionaires has decided to play with the Clippers this year.
The services of Bill Lennox of Toronto have been secured to coach the Stouffville Maple Leafs. Bill has had a wide hockey experience and should be a great help to the club.
A meeting of the Stouffville Arena Hockey League was held on Thursday night. Representatives from Stouffville, Uxbridge, Peaches, Agincourt and Lansing were on hand to offer their views on the formation of a well balanced league.
The local Clippers would like the aid of some competent man to assist in handling the equipment for the team this coming season. Anyone who would offer their services in this matter would certainly be appreciated by the club.
Stouffville Arena has been booking for practice workouts for skaters from western Canada who will be in Oshawa early in January to compete in the Dominion Skating championships. CLIPPERS GAIN WIN AND A TIE WITH LINDSAY INTERMEDIATES
Twenty-seven penalties were handed out in the first game between the Senior Clippers and the Lindsay Intermediates ‘A’ squad in a rough hard-hitting contest that saw the locals defeat the visitors 9-2. The return match which was also a rough affair ended in a 5-5 draw. Lindsay opened the scoring after two minutes of the first period as Coombs blinked the light behind Goalie Mulholland. Polly Minton put
the Clippers on even terms unassisted and Bud Watson put his team in the lead to stay at the nine minute mark. Nick Bangay let go a hard shot to the corner from about twenty feet out to open the scoring in the second frame and Ronnie Bell outguessed Naylor in the Lindsay net for a neat tally. Hennessy scored the final goal for Lindsay at 15.15 and from then onto was all Stouffville in the scoring department. N. Bangay, B. Bangay and Minton fired the rubber into the net to run the count up to seven. Rumney and Minton combined for the opening third period goal and N. Bangay ended the scoring at the twelve minute mark from J. Watson. Bill Mulholland turned in a good game in the Clipper cage going in at the last minute when the regular netminder was unable to make the trip. Lindsay have a battling squad and should prove plenty of opposition for any team in their class. They have a number of players who starred with the Peterboro Legions a few seasons back.

GEORGE STARK BANISHED FROM GAME AS CLIPPERS GAIN DRAW WITH LYNDHURST MOTORS
A second period fracus between right-winger George Stark of the Clippers and referee Harry Morrison resulted in having the speedy forward banished from the game with a match misconduct penalty. It
all occurred when Stark raced into the corner and as he and his check hit heavily on the boards. Referee Morrison thumbed the Clipper winger to the penalty box with an elbow penalty. Stark took exception
to the call and as he skated by the official he dumped him on the ice. That gesture concluded any part in the game for Stark as he was immediately ousted to the showers. Hannigan, the burly defenceman with the Toronto squad, put the team in the lead after six minutes of the first period. Minton tied the count from Baker a minute later as he fired the rubber into the open cage. Bluet put Lyndhurst two up with a couple of tallies before the period ended. Clement and Gray, former Millionaire players received assists on the goal. Frank Stevenson, a new recruit trying out for a spot on the team, put the Clippers back in the game with a neat goal from Gibson and Machin. Batten of Lyndhurst blinked the light for the visitors’ fourth at the five minute mark. The remainder of the period was all Stouffville in a scoring way as Stark and Jack Watson sank the puck back of Irvine in the Toronto net to tie the score. At 9.45 of the final frame Hannigan took a pass from Formica to give the Lyndhurst crew a big edge but with time running short N. Bangay drove the rubber into the twine to deadlock the score at 5-5. Bud Watson was the main driving force for the Clippers on the night’s play with Clements of Lyndhurst turning in a good game. Couch, last
year with the Clippers and top scorer of the league this season, was kept well in check although he did put on a few exhibitions of skating skill.

LIONS CLUB N.H.L. GETTING UNDERWAY
One of the finest pieces of work among young boys of the community this winter is being done each Saturday morning at the local arena where more than fifty young lads have been organized into a local
National League. The ice time provided b the Lions Club, while much of the organization is being done by the arena manager and a number of assistants, including Mr. Lambert Malloy who it is expected will
referee the games. The boys have been divided into four clubs, the Maple Leafs, the Canadians, the Black Hawks and Boston Bruins. Each team is being provided with a complete uniform of stockings and
sweater carrying his particular National League crest. These are being financed by several local business men. The boys will play a ten to fifteen weeks schedule commencing one week from this Saturday. This Saturday’s game will be an exhibition contest in order to balance the clubs, and the boys have been told that there may be some trading among this “Junior N.H.L.” just like the big league. Every boy in the community under fifteen is eligible to play as well as boys from immediate surrounding centres. You’ll enjoy watching these minors in action on Saturday mornings. LOCAL HOCKEY FRATERNITY INVITED TO LINDSAY SCHOOL
The Ontario Minor Hockey Association rules forum for this district will be held in Lindsay on Friday evening of this week, Nov. 23rd. Registration commences at 7.30 and the meeting proper gets underway at 8 o’clock. Bill Morrison, former O.M.H.A. and O.H.A referee and now a member of the N.H.L. staff of officials, will be the guest instructor. Coaches, team manager and all others interested in minor league hockey for the younger boys are urgently invited to attend. A special invitation has been sent to Stouffville to send a car load or more to represent this area. Mr. Jim Austin of Stouffville, who has acted in the capacity of convener, has received official notification of the forum and is anxious to have the names of others to have the names of others who will join him in the trip to Lindsay. RONNIE BELL NETS FOUR AS CLIPPERS BEAT WOODBRIDGE
Woodbridge Seniors will probably find the competition in their grouping fairly stiff unless they can produce a stronger lineup than they did against the Clippers on Friday night. For the first five minutes of the game Woodbridge showed signs of being of Senior calibre but from then on it was all Stouffville. Four times the homesters flashed through the visitors defence to blink the light the light without reply from the opposition. At 10.55 of the second frame Woodbridge tallied their final marker but that goal was covered over by six more fired by Clipper marksmen. Bell opened the scoring after forty seconds of the first period but four minutes later Woodbridge evened the count as Jones blinked the light with Hochberg serving a tripping penalty. Stevenson and Rumney combined neatly for the Clippers second tally followed by the nicest
single effort of the night as Ronnie Bell slipped through the entire Woodbridge squad unassisted to pull Briggs in the visitors cage to one side and flip the rubber into the open net. Herbie Rose and Bud
Watson ended the scoring for the first period. Ronnie Bell who proved himself to be the most dangerous man on the ice counted the second tally of his goal spree to open the second period scoring. Woodbridge fired their final goal of the night midway through the middle twenty minutes but Minton wiped that one off on a single effort at 17.40. Bell completed the hat trick after only 53 seconds of the final period and was followed by Nick Bangay with the ninth Clipper goal. Bud Watson, Bert Baker and Polly Minton ended the goal scoring parade for the night. Referee Leon Smith and linesman Ken Laushway had a busy night handing out some eighteen penalties. The Clipper make the return trip to Woodbridge on Thursday night of the week.

Stouffville and district hockey fans are being offered one of the richest diets this winter ever dished out for hockey. There are games practically every night in the week, and whether or not the public purse can stand the the pace to enable all these leagues to operate on a sound financial basis remains to be seen.
In Wednesday, Nov. 21, eight members of the local badminton Club journeyed to Newmarket with w return contest scheduled for Wednesday night of next week, Dec. 5. The local players who made the trip are Earl Lehman, Mic Redshaw, Ron Mercer, George Pearce, Kay Hastings, Marg Hosie, Eleanor Mercer and Joan Garrett.
Ross Hochberg will not be allowed to play with the Clippers this season according to the O.H.A. ruling at a meeting on Friday. Ross is out of this area and although he starred under Clipper colours for the
past four years a [protest by Newmarket has been granted. Whether the steady rearguard will line up with the Spitfires is still a question. He may join the rival Senior ‘B’ squad at Orillia or play with
Uxbridge in the local Intermediate Community League, so that it is doubtful whether Newmarket “squawk” will gain them anything.
When the Senior O.H.A. hockey season is officially opened in Stouffville next Tuesday night, the local Senior Club will again be selling their popular lucky draw program. These splashy programs in a two-colour cover dis[laying the picture of some club member will be on sale for 10c and entitle the lucky number holder to a fine prize each evening. HOCKEY FANS HERE TO HELP MINDEN ARENA
Minden Intermediate Hockey Club will be in town on Saturday night for the last exhibition hockey game before the Senior season opens next Tuesday, Dec. 4th. There is a special significance in this game since half the proceeds will go to assist the Minden boys in repairing their new Arena which was heavily damaged by the heavy snowfall of a few weeks ago, when the roof collapsed. It’s a fine gesture on the part of the local club and one which merits the support of all good hockey fans in the district. NEW HOCKEY LEAGUE WELL RECEIVED
The newly organized Stouffville Arena Intermediate Hockey League has ended its first week of operation and all signs point to a successful season. A sixth team has been added to the five team group with
Riverdale Imperials agreeing to play in the league instead of entering the T.H.L. The six teams in the group are Lansing, Stouffville Maple Leafs, Peaches A.C., Uxbridge, Agincourt and Riverdale. By the end of this week all six teams will have seen action. On Friday night Peaches A.C. will battle Agincourt in the first game beginning at 7.45 with Stouffville Maple Leafs and Lansing squaring off at 9.30. Due to the Clippers home game on Tuesday, Dec. 4th the regular double-header will be moved ahead to Wednesday, Dec. 5 when the Riverdale Imperials meet Lansing in the first game and Uxbridge battles Stouffville at 9.30. THREE WAY TIE FOR FIRST PLACE IN STOUFFVILLE INTERMEDIATE LEAGUE
Three teams have broken into the win column in the Stouffville Arena Intermediate Hockey League. On Tuesday of last week, the opening night of the league’s activities, Stouffville maple Leafs and Agincourt fought it out for three periods in a well played game before a good crowd of interested spectators. Skip Taylor led Cec Hendricks’ boys to a 7-4 win with three tallies. Forfar, Paisley, Smalley and LeRoy counted the others. Smith fired three goals for Agincourt with Lomax potting the fourth marker. In the second game Lansing took a three goal lead over Peaches in the first period and went on to win 6-2. Hamilton fired two for the winners with Madley, Clarke and Thompson netting one each. Don Forgie came through with the first Peaches goal from Dent Smith with Ed Mason notching the other from J. Thomas. CLIPPERS DEFEAT OSHAWA 9-4 IN A THRILLING CONTEST
Local hockey fans witnessed the best played hockey game of the season on Saturday night as the home town Clippers handed Oshawa Majors a 9-4 defeat. After many hours of practice the homesters have perfected some of the neatest passing plays that one could wish to see and a power play that Joe Primeau himself might take some pointers from. One entire line, which incidentally tallies the visitors four goals were members of the famous Oshawa Generals with a couple of defenceman also being veterans of the same squad. Oshawa opened the scoring with but two minutes to go in the first period as Samalenko netted the puck on a close in drive. At 7.02 of the second frame Coach Bob Bangay dipsy-doodled through the entire Oshawa team with one of the neatest solo efforts of the night. Less than a minute later the same production line flew into action again with Jack Watson doing the honours assisted by B. Bangay and Ronnie Bell. Nick Bangay put the locals two up from Stevenson before Samalenko once more sailed in on the local’s cage to put the visitors once more back in the game. Hal Gibson, another two goal man for the Clippers, notched his first marker from Bell and Bob Bangay fired his second goal of the night assisted by Jack Watson and Bell. Stevenson wheeled in on the Oshawa cage after being set up by Rumney for the sixth Clippers goal and Rumney duplicated the feat a matter of seconds later to end the scoring in the middle frame. The visitors struck back twice with Samalenko again netting the rubber for the Motor City squad but both goals were wiped out by Ronnie Bell and Hal Gibson of the Clippers. Some of the local stars came up with their best showing of the new season. Ronnie Bell came through with a goal and three assists while Bob Bangay credited himself with two goals and one assist. Jack Rumney and Jack Watson each picked up one goal and two assists on the night’s play. The final score read Stouffville 9, Oshawa 4.

Stouffville Clippers received a rousing welcome as they skated onto the ice in the new Scarboro memorial Arena on their opening occasion. The local displayed a smooth exhibition of hockey before the jammed arena to down Taylors Service by a score of 4-2.
The Stouffville Arena Co. suffered it first major breakdown since opening three years ago, when operations were suspended on Saturday. The trouble necessitated getting new parts from the Linde Refrigeration Co. in Montreal. However, these were rushed to Stouffville and by working without scarcely a letup during Th. week-end, the bib plant was put back in operation on Sunday night. Despite the warm weather, the ice suffered little, and with the place closed up only slight dampness appeared during the two-day shutdown. Mr. Harry Mitchell, Linde engineer, was on the job immediately the trouble was spotted, and gave excellent service in getting the plant back in operation again.

NEWMARKET UPSET OF POWERFUL CLIPPERS IS BIG SURPRISE
by Bunny Morganson
It’s a tried and true rule in hockey never to underestimate your opposition, but Stouffville Clippers fell into a manhole Thursday night, underrating the battling Newmarket Spitfires to finish up the losing end of a 4-3 decision. Overcoming Stouffville’s 3-1 lead, the Spitfires caught on fire in the middle period. The just couldn’t be stopped until they had tied the score, and popped in the winner with less than four minutes remaining. It was Newmarket’s second win in six games of the O.H.A. senior-intermediate group, and it did much to quiet home-fan criticism after they had absorbed an 11-1 defeat from Midland a week earlier. Al Shewchuck, former Maple Leaf farmhand and an outstanding junior performer with Oshawa Generals, paced Newmarket’s attack with a heady defensive performance. Still in possession of his bullet-like shot, Shewchuck started his team off with their initial goal early in the game, and then blasted home the all-important third and tying tally after three minutes of the last period action. Laurie Thoms, cousin of Bill, one-time Leaf star, along with Grant Firth, who notched the clincher, and the impressionable Jack Andrews almost had two additional markers after cyclonic rushes one of which was taken away from him by a referee’s decision. Stouffville played their only team hockey in the early portion. Playing coach Bob Bangay sifted through the Newmarket defence for a neat solo in the first period. and brother Nick took over with Buddy Watson as his assistant for the Clippers’ big scoring edge in the middle round. There were several pushing and holding sessions, with the customary saw-off penalties during the hectic last period, but for the most part the competing athletes stuck to their knotting. CLIPPERS HAND COLLINGWOOD THEIR FIRST DEFEAT WITH DAZZLING HOCKEY DISPLAY
Stouffville Clippers turned in their most sensational hockey display of the young season on Saturday night as they handed the high-flying Collingwood Shipbuilders a 9-2 defeat. It was the first loss for the last year’s Intermediate ‘A’ and vaulted the Clippers into first place tie with the northern group. The final score didn’t indicate the play entirely but the locals had the Shipbuilders dizzy at times with their pattern passing plays. Eatough in the Clipper cage came up with a steady game handling nineteen shots on the night’s play. Westbrook in the Shipbuilder’s net kicked aside twenty-seven shots. Both teams went scoreless in the first period as the puck did everything but role into the goal. The Clippers had the best scoring chances although Collingwood came very close on a number of occasions also. Frank Stephenson sailed in alone on Westbrook early in the period but was outguessed. Bob Bangay carried the puck through the entire Collingwood squad to set up an almost certain goal but once again a padded figure sprawled on the ice to smother the shot. N. Bangay broke in alone to blast a shot into the goaltender a few minutes later. Ronnie Bell was robbed of a goal as he pulled Westbrook out of his net only to hit the far goal post on a low drive. The second frame saw the locals bear into the scoring column with four goals. Bert Baker started the ball rolling at 4.30 as he caught the top corner of the et with a long shot. A minute later he notched the second Clipper tally with another long drive. Midway through the period Rumney counted number three from Stephenson before Walmsley of Collingwood broke the ice from Cockrane. With Creighton of serving a penalty, Gibson waltzed in on the Shipbuilders’ net to blink the light from N. Bangay. Scarcely had the referee dropped the puck to start the third and final frame when Stephenson raced through the Collingwood defence into the clear to completely outguess Westbrook for goal number five. On the return rush Smart of Collingwood netted the rubber with both tallies coming in less than a minute. Minton notched the sixth Clipper goal from B. Watson and Gibson netted his second tally of the night after Morley Petch had carried the full length of the ice and laid over a perfect pass to the speedy winger. At the eighteenth minute mark of the period J. Watson battled hard for the puck in the corner to wheel out in front of the net and beat Westbrook with a high shot. Rumney ended the scoring in the game as he broke in alone on passes from Gibson and N. Bangay. There was only one outbreak of fighting in the entire game which occurred when Cockrane of the Shipbuilders tangled with Eatough inside the goal area. Eatough knocked the forward into the net and other players rushed over to join in the pushing bee. N. Bangay and Wheeler became involved in a fist swinging battle and both players were given majors. Other than this display of boxing art the game was cleanly played. from a winners standpoint it was by far the nicest game of the season. the Clippers dazzled both the opposing players and the spectators with their puck passing technique and the fans look forward to another good game on Saturday night when these two teams hook up again. Hal Gibson, Morley Petch and Nl Bangay turned in a three star performance for the Clippers with many of the other players putting forth their best effort of the year. STOUFFVILLE MAPLE LEAFS STILL UNDEFEATED IN FIVE STRAIGHT GAMES
Stouffville Maple Leafs continue to lead the Intermediate Community League with five straight wins to their credit and no losses. Last week they handed Agincourt a 7-4 defeat and after a close battle downed Riverdale 4-2 on Friday night. In their game with Agincourt the scoring for the local squad was evenly divided among the players. Sellers and Paisley counted for the Maple Leafs in the first period with assists going to Clarke and Campbell. In the second frame R. Forfar, Brett Clarke and Laushway scored with Archie Forfar coming through with the lone third period tally. Slack was the big gun for Agincourt with three goals with Corry notching the other one. In their second contest on Friday night the Maple Leafs downed the high-flying Riverdale Imperials 4-2 in a close game. Stouffville jumped into the lead in the first period with Hodgins blinking the light from Lewis. Riverdale rallied in the second period with Fartner putting his team on even terms from Blunt. In the third and final period the Leaf sewed the game up with three more goals off the stick of Brett, Paisley and Sellers. Riverdale tallied one goal with Blunt beating Mulholland near the end of the game.

Polly Minton, while only weighing 127 pounds handed out the neatest body check of the game at Orillia on Saturday night when he caught ex-Clipper Earl McCrone at centre ice and sent him sprawling to his
knees. Polly turned in one of his best games to date, battling hard in the corners with player twice his size and weight.
On Saturday night your sports reporter (Jim Thomas) had the pleasure of picking the three stars in the Orillia-Stouffville game and broadcasting their names over the local station, C.F.O.R. Your local sports editor along with President, George Allison, took part in an original Hot Stove League meeting while the ice was being flooded between periods.
Saturday night was the first trip made by the local Clippers to the new Orillia arena where one of the largest crowds of the season jammed in to see the two Sr. B. entries in action. The arena ice surface is
somewhat wider than in the local arena with the length being approximately the same. The seating capacity is on a large scale but the ice surface was not of the smooth calibre that skaters and hockey players enjoy here in Stouffville.
In commenting on the flooding apparatus in the two arenas, George Allison explained to the Hot Stove League during the a ten minute break between periods how the Stouffville arena produced such a smooth
ice surface with their long hose and mop. One of the Orillia members taking part in the broadcast claimed that of all the arenas competing in the Sr. B. league, Stouffville could boast of the smoothest ice surface in the group. STOUFFVILLE INTERMEDIATE LEAGUE STANDING

George Stark, right wing speedster with Th. local Clippers ran wild in a scoring way on Saturday night notching four goals and picking up one assist, to lead his team to a 11-5 victory over the Orillia terriers. The dipsy-doodling Stark had a large crowd on their feet as he ducked and weaved over the large ice surface to pull one player after another completely out of position giving the goaltender no chance whatsoever to hold the fort. the flashy forward fired one tally in the first, two in the second and one in the third. Morley Petch, star defenceman with the homesters turned in a terrific performance blinking the light three times. His first goal tied the game up[ in the second period with the final marker coming with only seconds remaining in the game. On two occasions the husky rearguard waltzed in on Ross in the Orillia cage for unassisted goals to put the Clippers back in the heat of battle after they allowed a three goal lead early in the first period. A. Brown netted the last trick for Orillia with Payne and McCrone scoring the others. Hardly had the second period commenced when Stark struck again with an assist going to N. Bangay. two minutes later Petch took over in a scoring way with two quick tallies that stunned the crowd who were witnessing a three goal lead disappear before their eyes. At 4.13 Payne do Orillia pulled one of the neatest solo efforts of the game and flipped the rubber by Eatough. A few minutes later Petch became mixed up with an Orillia player in the corner and as referee Butters stepped between the two, the local defence star took exception and promptly pushed the official into the boards. he received a two-minute plus a ten-minute misconduct penalty. Bud Watson and George Stark combined to put the Clippers in the lead to stay and B. Bangay ended the scoring for the period with assists going to Watson and Bell. The Clippers out shot their rivals 14-7 in the second frame Ronnie Bell with two goals and Stark, Rumney and Petch with one each ran the score into the double digits and the final score read
Stouffville 11, Orillia 5.

TWO LOCAL TEAMS, PEACHES, STOUFFVILLE TO PLAY FRIDAY NIGHT
At 7.15 two local entries in the Stouffville Intermediate Hockey League Peaches A.C. and Stouffville Maple Leafs will battle it out on Friday night. Stouffville, who up to the present time is undefeated in eight starts will be trying to continue in their winning ways, while Peaches will be trying just as hard to be the first team to hand the locals their first loss. Peaches are at the present time just on point out of fourth and last playoff position and just three points from second spot. In the last meeting between the clubs the Maple Leafs took the contest by a 5-3 score but up to the final period the game was much in doubt. On Tuesday night of last week Peaches pulled out of the cellar by handing the second place Agincourt squad a 4-2 defeat. D. Smith fired two for the locals with M. Lewis and M. Grove notching the other. Miller and Winkle tallied the Agincourt goals. In the second game Stouffville defeated Uxbridge 12-1 in an one-sided contest. Bun Sellers, L. Jennings and H. Hodgins each scored twice with single goals going to Laushway, R. Forfar, A. Forfar, Clarke and Brett. Beach notched the single goal for Uxbridge. On Friday night the Maple Leafs continued to burn up the league by overpowering Lansing 6-3. R. Forfar with two goals paced the winners with Hodgins, Brett and Jennings scoring the others. Hamilton, Knapton and Hill fired the three goals for Lansing. Riverdale Imperials handed Lansing their second defeat of the week by a 6-3
count with Bazan of Riverdale blinking the light on two occasions. Cleland, Philips and Morgan scored one each. Taylor with one goal and Davidson with two were the marksmen for Lansing. STAR PERFORMERS IN SCOTTISH HOCKEY LEAGUE
The three local pucksters, Gord Lewis, Bill Mabbett and Mac Clement who departed last fall for Scotland to join the Ayr Raiders in the Scottish Hockey League are really making a name for themselves according to the Ayr newspaper. The paper displays a full page of pictures and highly recommends the local trio for their aggressive play. One photograph shows Gord Lewis fighting for the puck in front of the opposition’s net while another depicts a large four column picture of Bill mabbett smiling at the cameraman while dressed in his Ayr uniform. Beside the photo of the Richmond Hill star is an equally large picture of Gord Lewis also attired in his hockey outfit. The Scottish sportswriter commends centreman Lewis for his untiring, aggressive play and Bill Mabbett for his tricky style as he moves in on opposing goal-tenders. aNc Clement is also regarded as one of the strongest defenceman in the league. It is good news for sport enthusiasts around the district to know that their local players are equal to anything the opposition can offer in the hockey across the sea. MINDEN INTERMEDIATE NO MATCH FOR SENIOR CLIPPERS; BEATEN 10-3
Withholding their scoring punch until the final period when they rapped home five goals, the local Clippers came out on the top end of a 10-3 score over Minden Intermediates on Friday night. The homesters
netted three goals in the first twenty minutes, two in the second and five in the third. Minton counted one goal in each period. Frank Stephenson and George Stark paced the Clipper’s attack with two goals
apiece with Rumney, Minton, N. Bangay and Bell notching the others. The game was cleanly played and although somewhat one-sided the Clippers made good use of their opposition’s weaknesses to perform some neat passing plays inside the Minden blueline. Bud Watson, although he didn’t come through with a goal, turned in a strong game at centre ice with George Stark putting on a great display os his dipsy-doodling tactics. early in the second period Bert baker was forced to retire when he aggravated an old injury. The Minden squad have invited the Clippers to play a return game in their arena sometime in the neat future. ICING RULE SPLITS CAHA EXECS. WIDE OPEN
There was a great hue and cry raised in the prairies recently when the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association announced it was rescinding the new icing-the-puck rule and going back to the old one. George Dudley, the secretary-manager of the C.A.H.A, revealed that a special vote of the amateur hockey body’s executive resulted in favour of scrapping the new rule. Reports were that most of the ten losing votes came from western representatives, and west of the Great Lakes they weren’t happy with the decision. Last spring, at the annual meeting of the C.A.H.A. in Halifax, the puck moguls accepted a new icing-the-puck rule. Under it players must carry the puck over the attacking team’s blueline or pass it over
without reaching the goal line. if the puck is shot into the end zone from centre ice, the team is called for “icing” and the face-off brought back into their own goal area. The west liked the new version of the rule and although secretary-manager Dudley told them to go back to the old one right away, they refused. Three branches — Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta — declared they would continue using the new rule and they would fire all their big guns on behalf of it at the CAHA semi-annual meeting Jan. 5-6 in Regina. Western hockey officials and clubs felt that the new icing rule opened up the game. They saw it as a means of encouraging more and better stick-handling and passing and eliminated much of the mass-ganging inside the bluelines. They recognize that the pros don’t employ the new rule but declared that future N.H.L. stars could well do with stick-handling and passing ability the new rule would develop in young players.
Alex Shibicky, one-time forward star with the New York rangers who now coaches the Flin Flon Junior Bombers, also has a few words to say on the subject, none of them very complimentary to the CAHA about face. “What were the easterners thinking about when they changed the icing-the-puck rule?” asked Shibicky. The he answered his own question. “The east never could produce stick-handlers and the new
rule gives the stick-handlers a new lease on life.”

The West scored a victory over the East at the semi-annual meeting of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association. Delegates decided to retain the icing-the-puck rule. The vote wiped out a decision by a 13-10 vote earlier in December to revert to the old rule.
In the last three games played by the Clippers against Minden, Orillia and Midland George Stark speedy right winger, has scored eight goals and assisted on two others.
Injuries are becoming quite numerous in the local Intermediate Hockey League not because of rough play but through unfortunate accidents. Dent Brown and Jack Cote both needed doctor’s attention during the last two games in which their team took part. dent received five stitches to close a wound in his head when hit by a puck in the Peaches-Riverdale contest and Jack Cote suffered a shoulder separation in the Peaches-Stouffville game on Friday night. Lloyd Jennings was hit in the head by a fast moving puck off the stick of Bruce Paisley and received a nasty gash. COLLINGWOOD THREATENS PROTEST FOR LOSS TO NEWMARKET SPITFIRES
Officials of the Collingwood Shipbuilders, OHA Intermediate ‘A’ entry, may protest to the association the game awarded to Newmarket Spitfires in Newmarket on Thursday night. They claim referee Leon Smith, Sutton, violated the OHA rules when he awarded the game to Newmarket during the second period. The OHA rules of competition read: …. “If the referee shall call a game before the end of the second period it shall be declared no contest….” Smith gave the game to Newmarket when no Collingwood player volunteered to serve a major penalty incurred a few minutes earlier by playing-coach Eddie Bush. After receiving the penalty, Bush argued with the referee and was given a match misconduct penalty. The only other Collingwood official present had been ejected for the same reason earlier. INTEREST INCREASING IN LIONS PEEWEE N.H.L.
After several weeks of practice the local “National” league comprised of boys, 9 to under 15 years, is under way. Canadiens went into first place when goals by Hallman (2), Hammersley (1) and MacDonald (2), they defeated Chicago, who with 3 goals by Wideman and one by Wedseltoft made this a tough one for the Hawks to lose. Boston club led by Madill(3) Hammersley (1) and Redshaw (1) had their work cut out and had to come from behind to the Leafs who still have to register a win. for the Leafs Eckardt (3), Thompson (1) and Gribbin (1) countered. Referee was Bud Lehman BANGAY AND ROMNEY NOTCH PAIR TO DOWN MIDLAND 7-4
Largest Crowd of the Season on Hand
The largest crowd of the season turned out on Saturday night to witness the return contest between the local Clippers and the Midland Flyers who had previously defeated the homesters by a score of 8-6. The game was played at as fast pace with the Midland crew displaying the best aggregation they have come up with in years. B. Bangay and J. Rumney led the Clippers to victory with two tallies apiece with G. Stark, P. Minton, and H. Rose netting the others. Morrison with two and Collins and St. Amant with one each were the Midland marks men. Both goal-tenders, Eatough of the Clippers and Harper of Midland, came through with some neat saves with the Flyers netminder exceptionally good in the final twenty minutes when he kicked aside some fifteen pucks from the attack of the speedy Clipper forwards. Playing coach Bob Bangay started the ball rolling at 8.01 of the first period when he intercepted a pass inside the Midland blueline and blinked the light as he shifted in on the net. George Stark, who has been going wild in the scoring way of late picked up the puck at centre ice, pulled one defenceman out of position, and sailed in on the unprotected Harper for goal number two. At this point the Clippers seemed to slacken their effort somewhat and the Flyers took advantage of this to even the score and jump into the lead. two goals by Morrison of Midland only ten seconds apart and another by Collins at the fifteen minute mark set the Clippers back on their heels. the period ended with Midland leading by a score of 3-2. At 5.35 of the second frame Bud Watson picked up a loose puck in the corner and flipped the rubber out to Herbie Rose at the blueline who promptly labelled a drive into the corner to score the tie. Midway through the period B. Bangay who is fast becoming popular with the fans for his aggressive play picked up a stray puck at centre ice, shifted the lone defenceman out of the rink to beat Harper in the Midland cage with a high drive to the corner. This marker proved to be the winning goal. Jack Rumney counted the first of his two goals near the end of the period with assists going to Gibson and Stephenson to give the locals a two goal lead going into the third and final period.
Midland came out fighting in the final twenty minutes and after holding the homesters inside their own blueline finally blinked the light with St. Amant doing the chores from Henderson. from This point the Clippers held a big part of the territorial play and literally pelted Harper in the Midland net with rubber. Polly Minton connected for the Clippers sixth goal from Stark and Machin and Rumney completed the scoring from Gibson. the final score read Stouffville 7, Midland 4.

BUSH SUSPENDED
The O.H.A. announced Friday that Eddie Bush has been suspended and his case would be dealt with at the first O.H.A. sub-committee meeting. A call to Bill Handley, O.H.A. business manager Tuesday, brought this information to light. The O.H.A.sub-committee isn’t expected to meet until Friday, Jan. 18. Mr Handley reported that he hadn’t been in touch with Frank Bickland, who handed down the suspension, nor had he had time to check Referee Leon Smith’s report of the game and therefore wasn’t in a position to give any idea what the final outcome of the suspension would be. CROWDS INCREASE FOR PEEWEE N.H.L.
Art Wideman, coaching the Hawks, eked a tie with Bud Lehman’s Leafs. Both teams show a lack of strength. Help from the other two teams is expected. Scorers were: Chicago, Haines from Badgerow, Wideman from Holden; Leafs, Barkey from Ball, Neil unassisted. Under the coaching of George Pearce, Boston handed Wedseltoft’s Canadiens their first defeat of the season. Canadiens over-confident from earlier victories were no match for the aggressive Boston attack. High spotting the play for Boston was Ron Wilson. Scorers were Boston, Redshaw 3 (unassisted), Madill from Arnold, Evans from McDowell; Canadiens, Malloy from Smith, Hammersley (unassisted), Hallman from Trann, Hallman (unassisted). CLIPPERS DOWN ORILLIA 4-1 WITH BIG FIRST PERIOD DRIVE
Putting on a terrific first period drive Stouffville Clippers jumped into a three goal lead over their Senior ‘B’ rivals, Orillia Terriers, before a good crowd of cheering home town fans and went on to take the game by a score of 4-1. George Stark who has been going strong for the locals of late notching the first Clipper tally from B. Watson. Four minutes later Bob Bangay picked up the puck in his own end, zig-zagged and criss-crossed up the ice to centre, faked one player after another out of position as he crossed the blueline and relayed the rubber through the lone defenceman’s legs to Polly Minton who was speeding in from the wing. Minton let the puck go with a hard shot for the second Clipper tally. At the half-way mark in the opening frame Jack Watson deflected a blueline drive by Morley petch into the net to give the locals a three goal lead. Orillia was playing a man short for the last two goals scored by the homesters. With Gibson sitting out a two minutes penalty in the cooler Sanderson of Orillia took a pass from A. Bowen to beat Eatough in the Clipper cage for their one and only goal scored by the visitors. On the period’s play
Stouffville outshot their rivals 11-6. In the second twenty minutes only one goal was scored, that by Rumney from Petch. Both clubs battled hard with both Eatough in the Clipper Cage and Clarke of Orillia pulling off some neat stops. Clarke was the most overworked player on the ice during the whole game as the Clippers labelled shot after shot in his direction. Play became somewhat ragged in the third period as the Clippers seemed to go on the defensive in order to protect their three goal lead that they had built up earlier in the game. One of the neatest exhibitions of penalty killing was witnessed by the some seven hundred fans when N. Bangay and Petch of the Clippers were given penalties only seconds apart. Gibson, B. bangay and Stephenson held the Orillia forwards outside their blueline for the greater part of the time in which they were two men short. On the night’s play the Bangay brothers stood out well with Gibson also working his heart out every time he was on the ice. Earl McCrone, ex-Clipper, turned in a smooth performance, being dangerous on every rush. The next home game will be played on Tuesday, Jan. 29th when Midland will be the visitors once again. RALPH BARBER STEARS WORLD’S BIGGEST HEADACHE
In the last eleven years, diminutive red-headed Ralph barber has had an annual six-month headache, which easily qualifies as one of the most thankless non-paying jobs ever devised — and he loves it. Among other things Ralph is the Assistant Secretary, registrar and Director of Schedules of the world’s largest hockey league, the T.H.L. In the process he’s something akin to a god-father to over
10,000 players, the majority of them high school students. Barber is quite well-known in baseball circles here and is a native of Uxbridge. When the press called Ralph the other night, he was in the midst of what he termed “a routine evening.” “Only had 40 or 50 phone calls to-night,” he said casually, “On top
nights I usually average over 100.” All this, of course, is after a full day at his office. If you’re wondering where these calls originate, suffice to say that this year the THL has over 500 teams competing, compared with 41 years ago when the league originated with five teams and sixty players. Using every available arena in Toronto and district — and at any time — the league managed to cram 5,300 games in their schedule last year and will come close to that figure this year. This human wonder, Barber, has one vigorous complaint, however. “It would make our work a lot easier,” Ralph says, “if the mothers and dads of the kids would take a little more interest in the league. EDITOR’S MAIL BOX
Sports Editor of the Stouffville Tribune
Dear Sir:
About the first of November I was approached at our car lot to form a hockey team and sponsor same at the Stouffville home entry to the Stouffville Arena Intermediate League. Having the complete uniforms from our previous Junior team which were in perfect condition and being always interested in hockey, I set out to form a team calling them the Stouffville Maple Leafs. Two weeks prior to the league’s schedule I was told that the home team looked weak and that I had better get it strengthened up if possible. I was on the spot so I contacted Bill Lennox who had coached our junior team and asked him if he was interested in helping me form a team and coaching it. He was right on for the assignment. We called a few practices and picked the most likely prospects from the district and formed a team. Bill set out as coach to get the desired results, getting his team playing combination and position etc. Soon the league started, the team shaped up fast and started playing a brand of hockey which is a pleasure to watch. But now the headache! See what we have got is a team that has not tasted defeat, and appears to outclass the rest of the league, which is just as bad as it is good. We now don’t know what to do about it. We have shifted four players to other teams to help balance the situation but still the same story on the scoreboard. The two boys, Joe Lewis and Harold Hodgins for instance who played midget last year have come along and look as good as the rest of the forwards. What are we going to do about it? We can’t ask the players to ease up, they are all after scoring points, and anyway, Bill Lennox is not made that way, his team is always out there to do their best. Our big hope is that the other teams in the league can strengthen up and meet this brand of hockey which is the calibre that should be shown for good intermediate hockey. This sounds funny from a sponsor but from a sporting viewpoint we would welcome one of the league teams to knock us off in a game soon. If anyone can prescribe a remedy for this headache, please contact me.
Cec Hendricks STOUFFVILLE LIONS CLUB REVIEW HALF-YEAR ACCOMPLISHMENTS
With 1951 having drawn to a close, the local Lions Club looks back on half a year’s accomplishments, the club year running from June to June. It is felt that many Tribune readers would like to review those thing done which comes under the heading of Lions service work. A total of $671.58 was spent between June, 1951 and the end of December 1951. Chief among the expenditures were $150.00 for the health and welfare fund to assist a needy infant; $240.00 for some sixty lads hockey time at the arena; $100.00 to the local Legion to assist with the hall completion; $25 to the girls’ softball team and some smaller amount to the same agencies. In addition the club provided trophies for the local High School field day winners, and contributed towards sending a High School student ti the United Nations. An offer of $1,000 has been made towards the paving of the tennis courts in the town park. The purpose of the Lions Club is more than fellowship and club social life, important though they are. it is to recognize community needs and develop means of meeting them, either through their own efforts or in co-operation with other agencies.
The Athletic Club is staging the first big winter ice carnival of the district in the Stouffville Arena on Wednesday, Feb. 13. According to the program that is being planned there are to be Fancy costumes, figure skaters, old time fiddlers, a sparkling band, moccasin dancing and lucky draws. there is to be public skating during a portion of the evening when the band will provide the music.
George Stark and Bob Bangay were picked as the first and second stars in the hectic Clipper-Orillia contest on Saturday night. Stark seems to be a real favourite withe sports scribes and fans alike with his dashing rushes up the ice. Bob Bangay, well known through the years is living up to the reputation he gained himself in Junior and Intermediate hockey a few years back. he is still one of the most clever stick-handlers in the business.
The announcer over C.F.O.R., Orillia, on Saturday night was practically standing on his head at times while describing the play by play broadcast of the Clipper-Orillia game. The twisting, swerving actions of right swinger george Stark had the “Foster Hewitt” of Orillia almost speechless. When Orillia came through with what proved to be the winner after only seconds of the overtime had commenced the press box flew into an uproar. One enthusiastic supporter threw his hands up into the air and smashed the light bulb out of the ceiling. Amid the flash of fire, shower of glass, and frantic waving of hockey sticks the entire arena was the scene of great rejoicing at the sudden change of events. REINSTATED BUSH TO GOOD STANDING AT OHA MEETING
Eddie Bush, Collingwood’s Mr. Hockey, will be back patrolling a defence post with the Shipbuilders again. The OHA on Friday night reinstated the playing coach of the Intermediate ‘A’ club, with a three-game suspension (already served) and a severe reprimand. The executive found that Bush had been at fault for the awarding of the game to Newmarket Spitfires at Newmarket two weeks ago. Referee Leon Smith of Sutton told the committee that following a boarding-major, misconduct and match-misconduct, Bush failed to leave the ice after a two-minute ultimatum. The OHA ruled that the game should stand as a win for Newmarket. The game was stopped in the second period with Newmarket Leading 6-2. Included in the judgement were automatic $10 fines to Bush, and the Collingwood manager, who earlier had been barred from the bench for what Smith called, “abusive language.” Smith reported that Bush at no time has used abusive language, a fact that was taken into consideration by the OHA. “He called me a goose-head,” said Smith. “He attempted to make a farce of the game and a fool of me,” FIVE TEAMS CLOSE IN INTERMEDIATE HOCKEY RACE
Five teams in the Stouffville Arena Intermediate League are waging a bitter battle for position at the present time with only six points separating the last place club from the team in second spot. Stouffville Maple Leafs are leading the pack with twelve wins and no loses with Agincourt and Peaches coming next in that order. Uxbridge and Riverdale are tied for fourth and the last playoff position with Lansing but one point behind. During the last couple of weeks Peaches have made considerable gains emerging from a cellar position to third place. Agincourt has been holding firm to the second rung while Riverdale has slipped somewhat into a fourth deadlock with Uxbridge. Lansing in winning their game with Riverdale on Friday night moved up into the running.

SPITFIRES UPSET CLIPPERS 6-2
Newmarket Spitfires bounced back on Thursday night of last week before a good home crowd of over 1,200 spectators to hand the second place Clippers a 6-2 setback. it was a great win for the hard skating
Spitfires who had suffered a 5-9 loss at the hands of Stouffville only two night previously. Newmarket was full value for their win although the contest was very much in doubt until the final period when they counted three tallies without a reply from the Clippers. The game was cleanly played with the exception of a first period brawl between Gibson of the Clippers and Andrews of Newmarket. Both players received majors. Laurie Thomas and Swifty Todd led the Spitfires to victory with two goals with Johnson and Shewchuk notching the others. Ronnie Bell and Bob Bangay combined for the first Clipper goal and Jack Rumney counted the other from Minton and Bell. oJw Tunney in the Newmarket net played an outstanding game for the winner kicking and throwing aside numerous shots that were labelled for the corner. On Feb. 14 these two clubs go at it again in Newmarket with the return game in Stouffville Feb.23. ORILLIA TERRIERS EDGE CLIPPERS 7-6 IN OVERTIME THRILLER
Stouffville Clippers went down to defeat at the hands of their Senior’B’ rivals on Saturday night in one of the hardest fought battles to be waged this season. A good crowd of screaming Orillia fans were given full value for their money as the two clubs packed everything into the exciting three periods of hockey and provided a ten minute overtime session as well in order to gain a winner. It was one of those see-saw battles in which either club could have won handily in regular time. it was the first win of the season for the Orillia squad on their home ice and provided the fans with all the thrills that one could hope to see. Smooth stick-handling, hard body-checks, brilliant goal-tending, wrestling and boxing all had their part in the closely contested game. The Clippers held a 3-2 lead at the end of the first period and 5-3 at the end of the second but Orillia forged back in the third and final frame with three goals to jump into the driver’s seat for the first time in the game. Ronnie Bell sank the equalizer late in the final twenty minutes that forced both teams into a ten minute overtime session. Long of Orillia zoomed in on the Clipper cage after
twenty-three seconds had ticked by to notch what proved to be the winner. Bert baker put the Clippers one up early in the first period with a hard blueline drive. Don Bowen tied the score midway through their opening twenty minutes from Richardson but Hal Gibson forged back with an unassisted tally to give the locals the lead for the second time. Jack rumney flipped the rubber over Clarke in the Orillia cage who was sprawled on the ice to lengthen the Clipper lead but Al Bowen put his club right back in the running late in the period from Dyke and brother Don Bowen. Ab Bowen raced in alone on the Clipper cage after little more than a minute had passed in the second stanza as he caught the Stouffville defence flat-footed giving Eatough no chance whatever to make the save. Back and forth, from on end to another the battle raged as both clubs strived to take that all important lead. Ronnie Bell carried the puck into the Orillia end and blasted a hard drive at goalie Clarke. B. Bangay picked up the rebound and netted the rubber with a close in shot. At 16.12 Bud Watson sizzled a drive over the shoulder of Clarke in the Terrier net to end the period with the Clippers holding a 5-3 lead.
With Minton of the Clippers serving a two minute penalty, Kelly, newcomer to the Orillia squad put his club back in the running once more and five minutes later with Herbie Rose sitting out a minor in the cooler Long tallied from Payne. The entire Orillia club seemed to catch fire suddenly and tore into the attack with more fight then they had shown on any previous occasion. At 8.49 Richardson brought the crowd to their feet as the Terriers took the lead for the first time in the game. With a matter on minutes remaining Bell tied the count from B, Bangay and a ten minute overtime session has to be called. Hardly had the puck been dropped when Long sank the rubber behind Eatough from Payne with what proved to be the winner. The Clippers pressed their attack and held the Terriers inside their own blueline time and time again but they couldn’t put the puck in the net. Play became rough in the later minutes as Stark and Richardson began shoving and were banished into the cooler. B. Bangay and Payne squared off as tempers began to flare. In the final seconds of the game Eatough was drawn out of the Clipper cage but the Terriers fought hard and retained their lead. the final score read Orillia 7, Stouffville 6. REORGANIZED, OPEN ACTIVITIES WITH A VALENTINE CARNIVAL
The Stouffville Athletic Club was organized originally in April 1947, was re-organized last week and will commence activities with a Valentine Carnival in the arena on Feb. 13th. The local Athletic Club which can take credit for being the original promoters of the present Stouffville Arena, has been one of the greatest boons to local sports ever organized in Stouffville. During the period from 1947 until 1950, the club spent some $7,000 on the promotion of sports for youth of Stouffville and immediate district. Minor hockey clubs were operated as well as minor baseball, free skating was provided, girls softball was fostered. All equipment for these many teams was supplied through the club mounting into hundreds of dollars. funds were raised by means of entertainment, field days, carnivals, etc., and to all these the public gave strong support. During the 1950, the club fell into an inactive period, but was fully revived on Thursday evening at a well-attended meeting in the Municipal hall. The newly-named executive included many former members and some new faces. The meeting and election of officers was conducted by Honourary President Dr. S.S. Ball and resulted on the following slate of officers for 1952: pres., Ken Laushway; vice-pres., Don Lewis; sec’y-treas., Chas. Nolan; assist. sec’y-treas., Gordon Birkett; directors, Morley Symes, Thos. Wedseltoft, Geo. Pearce, Everton Smith, Dr. Ron Smith, Cecil Hendricks, Lewis Raxlin, Ken Wagg, Jas. Thomas.
The new procedure will be the use of membership cards, with a fee of $1.00 attached. the club will promote a valentine Carnival next month to bolster the activities fund in preparation for the coming baseball season. At the present time, the club has assets of $1,500 invested in the local arena company.
Many has been the favourable comments on the activities of this organization in the press of neighbouring communities, and its achievements have been held up as an example of community co-operation in the realm of athletics. BADMINTON SCHEDULE

Stouffville Clippers led by their ace centre star, Bud Watson, climbed within two points of the first place Collingwood Shipbuilders on Saturday night as they edged their high-flying rivals by a 4-3 score. Watson figured in three of the goals tallied by the locals with the winner coming midway through the final period on a breakaway. In the final minutes of play the Shipbuilders put on terrific pressure and only the sensational work of goalie Norm Stunden were the Clippers able yo hold on to their one goal lead. Although the play started slow in the first period the two teams settled down to fast clean hockey in the second and third frames that had the large crowd of some 2300 fans sitting on the edge of their seats. Collingwood jumped into the lead in the opening twenty minutes but Gibson tied the count three minutes later from Rumney. Midway through the first period Green of Collingwood put his team out in front once more and although the locals carried the play into the Shipbuilders zone they were unable to beat Westbrook in the nets. N. Bangay gave the Clippers the lead for the first time in the hard fought contest. The third and final twenty minutes saw the Shipbuilders even the score until Bud Watson broke the game up with what proved the winning tally. With thirty seconds remaining goalie Westbrook came out of the nets and an extra forward skated into battle. The tension in the arena was terrific as all eyes trained on the Clippers cage. One, two and still another shot caromed off the pads of goalie Stunden until with five
seconds remaining a face off was called. When the puck was dropped playing coach Eddie Bush braced himself at the blueline and fired what everyone in Collingwood arena expected would send both teams into overtime but it seems they must have forgotten there was still a stick, two hands, two skates and a bundle of pads between the Clipper goal posts who rose to the occasion with a sensational sprawling save as the bell sounded to end the game. Bud Watson, Norm Stunden and Nick Bangay turned in sensational performances for the locals with Westbrook, Keith and Sandell going best for the Shipbuilders. The two clubs hook up again this Saturday night in the local arena.

STOUFFVILLE AND UXBRIDGE CLUBS GAIN CLOSE VICTORIES
Both doubleheader contests played in the local arena last week were very close with not more than two goals separating any one team from another. Stouffville Maple Leafs had to go all out to take a close decision from Riverdale on Friday by a score of 5-4. Riverdale had a one goal lead at the end of the first period with Fortnier blinking the light unassisted. Three tallies by the Maple Leafs to two scored by Riverdale in the second deadlocked the score at 3-3 but a last period goal by Don Forfar proved to be the winner. Fortnier with two and Blunt and Nash with singles were the Riverdale scorers with R. Forfar, Jennings, Hodgins, Paisley and D. Forfar notching the Maple Leafs tallies. One goal by Riverdale was disallowed as a player was standing in the crease at the time. Although the point was hotly argued the referee would not change his decision.

Chicago moved to third place when on goals b Badgerow, M. Holden and Haynes they defeated the Canadiens. Hammersley of the Canadiens scored twice to make the score close but had it not been the fine goal-tending of Jack MacDonald, Chicago would have doubled their score. Referee Lambert Malloy was for stopping this game owing to the Canadian goalie having insufficient equipment. However, young MacDonald preferred to stay in the nets. Maple Leafs who in their previous game with Boston eked out a tie found themselves at the short end of the score when Boston outplayed them to the tune of 4-2. for Boston Abraham, Wilson and Madill (2) were the scorers. For the Leafs, Barkey and Bell. The Boston team has power and knows how to use it. Leafs play was spotty. Barkey again was the standout for his team. In all games it was noticeable that the small boys are losing their fear and starting to mix it up.

ORILLIA TERRIERS HER SAT’DAY NITE
On Saturday night Orillia terriers will be the visitors to the Stouffville Arena according to O.H.A. ruling handed down last week. The Clippers were scheduled to play at Orillia but this has been changed. The Terriers are the team that Stouffville must defeat in order that they might continue in the Senior ‘B’ playoffs in their quest for the championship. In the last meeting of the two clubs the Orillia squad eked out a 7-6 decision in overtime in one of the most thrilling contests this season. Since the last meting here the Orillia team have strengthened their lineup with two new players who played a big part in their team’s victory a couple of weeks ago. FLYERS SHADED BY CLIPPERS 6-5
The local Clippers scored their second win in three nights over Midland Flyers as they edged their rivals 6-5 on Thursday night of last week. It took ten minutes of overtime to turn the trick as the Flyers put up a determined battle to keep the playoff running. Nick Bangay set the scoring pace for the Clippers with the hat-trick while Jack Watson, Ronnie Bell and Jack Rumney notched the other tallies. The Clippers were shorthanded at game time due to injuries sustained to george Stark a couple of nights previous and with playing coach Bob Bangay and defenceman Morley Petch sidelined the strength of the homesters was considerably weakened. However, before the game was over Bud Watson crashed into the goal post and had to be rushed to the hospital for medical attention. His eye was badly cut and he will join his battle scarred team on the bench for a couple of games. WIN 4-2 DESPITE INJURY LIST
The Stouffville Clippers, minus four of their players continued to set the pace in the O.H.A. Big Five Senior ‘B’ group as they handed Midland Flyers a 4-2 defeat on Monday night. the homesters stepped onto the ice at Midland with but two complete forward lines and four defenceman as injuries in the Clipper lineup is beginning to take its toll of players. Bud Watson, Bob bangay, George Stark and Polly Minton were unable to dress but the remaining players fought hard during the entire sixty minutes of play to overcome a one goal lead and go on to win. Bert Baker, Herb Rose, Morley Petch and Jim Machin turned in their finest defensive effort we have seen this season as the Flyers tried desperately to break through their blueline barrier. Both goalies, Eatough and Gagnon saved the day on many occasions with the local goaltender being exceptionally good in the middle frame when the Clippers receive two major penalties and the Flyers turned on a strong offensive attack. Hal Gibson opened the scoring after only three minutes had ticked by in the first period as he slid a low shot under Gagnon in the Midland net as he sprawled to smother a loose puck. neither team could blink the light for the remainder of the frame as the Clippers lead 1-0. In the second period both teams began to rough it up considerably. Bert Baker and Adams tangled on the boards and both players were given majors. Only seconds later Nick Bangay accidentally clipped the Midland forward St. Amant on the head with his stick and he also joined team mate Baker in the penalty box for five minutes. It was while the locals were shorthanded that Midland tied the game up and forged into the lead. O’Hare netted the first Flyer tally with a low drive and Swales put his squad one gaol up with a high shot to the top corner.
The Clippers put on the pressure in the final twenty minutes as bell tied the game up at 4.27 as he pulled Gagnon out of the net and backhanded a hard shot over his outstretched form. Midway through the period Gibson netted what proved to be the winner as he took a pass from Rumney at the blueline and skated in alone for his second goal of the night. Herbie Rose ended the scoring for the night as he he picked up a rebound and rapped it home. The Clippers have a short rest until Saturday night when their Senior ‘B’ rivals, The Orillia Terriers come to town. In the last meeting between these two clubs the Terriers took the contest 7-6 in overtime. HAWKS BLANK LEAFS 5-0 IN PEEWEE N.H.L.
On goals by Barnes (2), Harmon, Hathaway and Wilkes, Chicago trimmed the hapless Leafs who are still without a win. Benson displayed great net tending. There was never any doubt as to who was going to win this game. Chicago was better in all departments. With a two-goal lead it looked as though Canadiens were about to upset the Boston team. However clever play by the youngsters on the Boston side earned a 4-2 victory. At no time did the Boston first line show anything. Hammersley played one of his best games for Canadiens. Scorers for Boston were McDowell, Collins (2) and Hedges.

Stouffville Maple Leafs came very close to dropping their first game in the Intermediate hockey league on Friday night as Peaches pushed them to the limit, gaining a 4-4 deadlock. the Leafs notched a trio of tallies in the first five minutes of the opening stanza, and managed to hold that margin until the final period when they added another to make the score 4-0. With only ten minutes remaining in the game, Peaches came to life, led in the belated rally by Murray Lewis. Other goals for the Peaches club were scored by Cote and Smith. Sellers with two was the top marksman for the Leafs. Paisley and Brett getting singles. The game was cleanly contested, not a penalty being handed out. These two meet again on Feb. 19th. CLIPPERS WALLOP ‘BUILDERS 8-0 WITH JUST TWO FORWARD LINES
Before one of the largest crowds of the season Stouffville Clippers took undisputed possession of first place in the Big Five Senior ‘B’ group as they shut out Collingwood Shipbuilders 8-0. Up until game time both teams were deadlocked for the top rung and with the Clippers absent three of their star performers in Bud Watson, George Stark and Bob Bangay the situation did not seem very bright. Coach Eddie Bush and his speedy crew appeared out to win back some of the reputation lost in their three previous contests with the Clippers as they skated man for man in the opening period. Blake Eatough in the Clipper net came through with a sensational performance as he kicked out shot after shot from the sticks of the on rushing Collingwood forwards. It was a well-earned shut-out for the young netminder, his second of the
season.
Hal Gibson, who has currently been setting a torrid pace in the goal scoring department notched the only tally in the first period from J. Watson. His goal came from a hard shot of the left boards that caught the corner of the cage. At the four minute mark of the second period Jack Watson put his team two up and Gibson added another from Rumney a few minutes later. At 12.10 Morley Petch picked up the puck at the blueline and sizzled a drive past goalie Kerr to give the Clippers a four goal lead. At the close of the period with two Stouffville players in the penalty box Ronnie Bell broke into the clear for a perfect goal to give the locals a commanding lead. Ronnie bell came through with his second tally of the night at the eight minute mark of the third period and Stephenson ran the total up to seven. In the dying minutes of the contest Polly Minton and Nick Bangay combined to bring the cheering crowd to their feet as Nick sank
the rubber for the final goal of the night. The loss was a bitter pill for the Shipbuilders to swallow as they
have yet to obtain a victory over the Clippers this season. these two clubs have two more meetings before the close of the schedule. On Feb 16 the Shipbuilders return once again for a test of strength and the local squad make their final journey to Collingwood four nights later.

Mr. F.L. Button, one of Stouffville’s most ardent hockey fans, entertained the Clippers to a hot dinner prior to their Saturday night game with Orillia. The team and management sincerely appreciate this fine gesture. Gord Lewis , who has been turning in standout hockey with Ayr Raiders in the Scottish Hockey League, is at the present time side-lined with a broken leg. LEAFS GET FIRST WIN
Chicago showing great strength held the powerful Boston team to a three-all tie. Scorers for Chicago were Haynes(2) and Harmon; for Boston, Wilson (2) and McDowell. There was little to choose between these clubs. The addition of Wilkes and Barnes to the Chicago squad has shown great results but has weakened both the Boston and Canadian teams, particularly the latter.
A last minute goal by Barkey gave the Leafs their first victory of the season, and one that they deserved as Canadiens had ample opportunity to sew this game up bit the Leafs took advantage of their many mistakes. For Leafs Fairles and Barkey were the scorers, for Canadiens Hammersley. Too much individual play is costing Th. Canadiens many points. Congratulations to the new Leaf coach, Bert Smalley. ORILLIA PLAYER GOES BESERK, SLASHES REFEREE WITH STICK, BASHES SPECTATORS, CALL POLICE
One of the wildest outbreaks of violence ever to be staged by a single player here in the local arena took place on Saturday when Melver, newly signed forward with the Orillia eTriers battled with players, officials and spectators before being finally ejected from the game as police assistance was summoned to the scene.
The uncalled for display of temper began when referee Jim Crombie handed out a two minute penalty to Mclver of the Terriers when he became involved in a fracus along the boards. The penalized player immediately turned on the official and before teammates had time to hold back the big forward he brought his hockey stick down on the face of referee Crombie, cutting him badly on the nose. Not satisfied with the damage he had already caused the enraged player struggled with his teammates in a desperate effort to inflict more injury on the official. After delaying the game for nearly fifteen minutes McIver was slowly lead from the ice where he was booed loudly by the spectators. Taking exception to this razing the dismissed forward hurled his hockey stick into the upper balcony of spectators where luckily it did no damage although it did strike a couple of innocent bystanders. By this time the arm of the law had made its way into the arena to break up the brawl between player and spectators that had milled around the passageway between the dressing room and the ice.
We have seen a number of ice brawls both in the local arena and away from home but this was outbreak of sheer violence is without a doubt the worst ever staged by a single player as far as we can recall. McIver, who has not seen action with the terriers for any great time, appeared to add considerable strength to the club and it seems a shame that such an athlete should lose control of his temper and deliberately attack an unprotected official.
For many, the on and off the ice battle staged by the Orillia player was the highlight of the game but there were a number of other highlights in the contest that caught the interest of the enthusiastic hockey fan, The Clippers came through with another thrilling performance as they romped to a 9-1 victory. Nick Bangay, who is at the present time the hottest player on the squad, notched the hat trick as well as assisting on two others. Frank Stephenson netted two goals as did Ronnie Bell. Hal Gibson and Jack Rumney each picked up singles. Bud Watson turned in his usual hard working effort setting up three goals.
Jack Rumney scored the first Clipper goal near the midway mark of the opening period assisted by Gibson and Stephenson. A couple of minutes later Nick Bangay put the locals two up from Stark and Bud Watson. Stephenson ended the scoring for the first twenty minutes giving the Clippers a 3-0 lead.
Ronnie bell opened the scoring aryl in the second frame with an unassisted tally from behind the net but the Terriers came back on their one and only goal with Don Bowen blinking the light from brother Ab to spoil a perfect night for Goalie eatough. Only seconds later Gibson kept his scoring record intact as he beat Clarke in the Orillia cage from Stephenson. Goalie Blake Eatough came on with a sensational display of goal-tending in the second period handling over twelve shots to nine kicked aside by Clarke. Eatough is proving himself to be a standout puck stopper for the homesters holding the fort for the Clippers on many occasions when he going gets rough.
In the third and final period the Clippers showed complete mastery over their Senior ‘B’ rivals as they rifled four more pucks into the twine. Stephenson notched his second goal of the night after taking two shots a Goalie Clarke. At 8.55 Bud Watson picked up a loose puck inside his own blueline and relayed the rubber to Nick Bangay who was racing up the left wing. Nick took the pass and blazed a shot that nearly rocked the net off the ice. Five minutes later Polly Minton set Ronnie Bell rolling and although knocked off balance as he hit the defence the fast skating winger fought his way through to the goal mouth to completely baffle Clarke for the eighth Clipper gaol. George Stark came very close to adding to a tally to his scoring total when he cruised in on the Orillia cage only to bounce the rubber off the post. With but seconds remaining Bud Watson and Nick Bangay was moving at such a torrid rate that he could not apply the brakes in time and fell headlong into the net. Luckily no one was injured. Although the scene was somewhat one-sided the two teams put up a good battle.
The Clippers seem to be really hitting their stride with the goalie, defence and forwards all coming through with outstanding performances. The Clippers have a busy schedule this week with three games. On Wednesday night they go to Orillia, and journey to Newmarket the following evening. On Saturday night they entertain the Collingwood Shipbuilders in another first place battle. ORILLIA PLAYER BANISHED, AWAITS O.H.A. DECISION
In conversation with O.H.A. officials on Tuesday of this week, The Tribune learned that Bud McIver, Orillia hockey player who went “wild” in a game here with Stouffville Saturday night, has been banished from any further games until such time as the O.H.A. executive meets to decide his case.
McIver struck Referee Crombie and a number of spectators in a wild display of temper. CLIPPERS HELP ON BOOST FOR MNDEN ARENA

Collingwood Shipbuilders came through with their first win of the season over the league leading Stouffville Clippers on Saturday night as they downed the locals by a 7-2 score. The victory was costly for the Shipbuilders however, as they lost one of their star defenceman, Jackson, for the rest of the season with a broken leg.
The Collingwood Squad was full value for their win as they took advantage of every scoring opportunity. Playing Coach Eddie Bush turned in one of his best games this season as he fired shot after shot with deadly accuracy from the blueline giving Goalie Norm Stunden many anxious moments. Wes Westbrook in the Collingwood cage came up with a standout game as he blocked many shots that were labelled for sure goals. For the Clipper it just didn’t seem to be their night from the drop of the puck. The visitors jumped into a four goal lead in the first period and were never headed. They added two more in the second and one in the third while the homesters were able to blink the light on only two occasions, once in the first and agin in the second.
The Shipbuilders struck hard in the opening minutes of the game as they poured into the attack. Sandell counted the first Collingwood tally and Bush added another six minutes later on a bullet drive from the blueline. Fairchild notched number three and Keith made it 4-0 without a reply from the locals. Near the thirteen mark of the first period Jack Watson broke the ice for the Clippers on passes from Minton and Bell.
With Nick Bangay serving a two minutes tripping penalty Walmsley drove a rolling puck along the ice under the out-stretched glove of Stunden to open the scoring in the second period. Goalie Westbrooke came through with one of his best stops of the night off the stick of Jack Watson as the winger broke through only to be stopped cold as the padded figure sprawled across the goal crease. With Coach Bush in the penalty box Stark took a pass for Nick bangay to cut in front of the Collingwood net and backhand the rubber into the corner. The Clippers continued to press while playing a man advantage and although the puck bounced crazily around the net it failed to go over the line. At 6.29 Bush stepped out of the penalty box and took a pass at centre ice. He relayed the rubber to Cochrane who was speeding in on the net alone giving Stunden no chance to make the stop.
Collingwood again being the lamplighter unassisted. Nick Bangay made a valiant effort to check the the Collingwood star but he was just a split second too late. Bush, Cochrane and Westbrook were the outstanding threesome for the Shipbuilders with Nick Bangay, Hal Gibson and Ronnie Bell showing best for the Clippers. The locals have but two games left before playoff time. This Saturday Newmarket come to town with Midland being the visitors one week later. CLIPPERS WIN FIRST GAME THIS YEAR ON NEWMARKET ICE

TWO-WAY TIE FOR FIRST PLACE IN INTER. LEAGUE
Although the Stouffville Maple Leaf marksmen dominated the scoring parade for the first half of the schedule the Agincourt squad have of late been setting the league on fire during their last few games boosting some of their stars into top positions. At the present time Don Clarke of Agincourt and Bun Sellers of Stouffville are deadlocked at 28 points apiece. Each player has eighteen goals and ten assists to his credit. Both players are leading in actual goals scored with Russ Forfar of Stouffville close on their heels. SPITFIRES DUMP CLIPPERS 4-3, PENALTIES KILL LOCAL CHANCES
The old adage that you can’t win a hockey game siting on the bench, was never truer than Saturday night, when through a series of unnecessary penalties, the clippers dropped their final scheduled game with Newmarket Spitfires 4-3. The Spits were full value for their win, and only the great work of Blake Eatough in the net kept the Clippers from being humiliated to s greater degree. Stouffville penalties outnumbered those of Newmarket about six to one, and most of them were of a foolish nature.
The visitors struck fast in the opening period, when Bell and Stephenson were both off. Todd scored from Gibson at 11.32 and Gibson tallied alone at 12.50 to put the Spits two up. Stark and Minton evened the count for the locals three minutes later with a tally each and that about ended Stouffville’s part in the game. Newmarket swarmed to the attack in the second period, and bottled up the home team continually. Eatough nearly turning handsprings to keep out the rubber which came flying from every direction. Gibson got his second goal of the night for the Newmarketers and Andrews made it four half way through the period. Jack Watson added Stouffville’s third goal with assistance from Bell and Machin.
The game was held up on two occasions when injuries befell each goalkeeper. Eatough dislocated a finger in the second period during a scramble , and Tunney received a heavy blow on the head in the third frame. Fortunately both were able to continue.
The Clippers raised hopes for the large crowd with about five minutes left in the game, but the spurt was nullified by Rose who took the occasion to start a wrestling bout with tTodd and left his team shorthanded for five minutes.
Newmarket needed the win to keep Midland off their heels for a playoff spot, and a large contingent whooped it up in great style to see their club trim the much vaunted Clippers. AGINCOURT SWAMP LANSING 12-4
After going seventeen straight games without a loss Stouffville Maple Leafs finally tasted defeat at the hands of their local rivals, Peaches A.C. on Tuesday night of last week. The seventh concession squad had come close to downing the Leafs on one other occasion when they tied the league leaders 4-4 a few weeks back. Uxbridge had come close to a victory bit had to be satisfied with a split in the points.
Peaches pored into the attack in the opening minutes of the game as D. Smith banged in a pass from behind the net to give his team an early lead. Russ Forfar evened the count later in the opening period unassisted but Lorne Timbers gave Peaches the lead again from Norm Nigh. Don Forgie lengthened the winner margin with a long blueline drive that caught the upper corner of the cage. Les Clarke put the Maple Leafs back in the game with a long hared shot from about twenty feet out but Don Thomas sewed the game back up for Peaches as he tucked the rubber into the corner from Miller. Murray Wang guarded the nets for Stouffville in place of the injured Mulholland. Jack Warriner turned in sensational goaltending for Peaches.
In the second contest Stouffville returned to their winning ways by handing Riverdale a 6-3 setback. Brett blinked the light for two Leaf goals with singles going to Sellers, Harmond, Hodgins and Wilkes. Nash tallied two for Riverdale with Blunt getting the other goal.

Steps are underway to proceed with the laying of a concrete floor in the Arena just as soon as it is possible once the ice is out this spring which will be some time in May.

LIONS PEEWEE N.H.L. PLAYOFF START MAR. 22
The luckless Canadiens lost another one last Saturday morning, this time to Chicago (4-1) but they look better each time out. Except for a bad lapse in the middle ten minutes of the game when the hawks scored their four goals, Canadiens held their rivals off the score sheet by hard checking. Larry Malloy has several breakaways but was overhauled and taken out of play by his heavier Chicago check. There was no scoring in the first twenty minutes while play seesawed back and forth with both goalies turning back several good tries. White started off the scoring for Chicago at the 22 minute mark and Haynes made it 2-0 five minutes later. Wideman found the net to make it 3-0 at the 29 minute mark and White completed the scoring a short time later. Canadiens kept trying but were outlucked until just four minutes before the end of the game when Tran spoiled a Chicago shut-out by a well-earned goal.
The second game found Boston getting revenge for the 5-0 shellacking they took from the Maple Leafs the last time they met. The Boston first string of Wilson, Redshaw, Hammersley. Madill got the first goal on a pass-out from Arnold at the 2 minute mark but Todd tied it up minutes later. Wilson put on a burst of speed and blasted his second goal past St. Andrew at the 15 minute mark. The Rick hammersley slipped a pass over to Wilson who promptly made it 3-1. One minute later, Redshaw scored again for Boston. St Andrew fanned on Madill’s shot and the puck went into the net. Wilson got his fourth goal of the game seconds later but the Maple Leafs struck back on a goal by Spencely to make the score Boston 6, Leafs 2. With less than a minute to go, Madill picked up Wilson’s pass and scored neatly to make the final score 7-2.
In the absence of Coaches Betz and Smalley, John Davis handled the Canadiens and the Maple Leafs. Referee for both games was Bud Lehman. LOCAL RADIO FANS INDIGNANT OVER HOCKEY BROADCAST
This newspaper has been deluged with complaints concerning what they termed nasty slurs cast upon the Stouffville Arena by the Orillia announcer in his play by play coverage from Stouffville Saturday night in the current hockey series. The “nasty comments” were certainly uncalled for and more particularly since the radio station was being given the privilege of broadcasting from the arena “free” of charge.
As to his comments on the condition of the ice, which was a vain attempt to justify Orillia’s poor showing. It can be stated that Stouffville Arena ice is unsurpassed for quality anywhere on Ontario outside of Maple Leaf gardens. This statement can be verified from dozens of hockey clubs who have used the arena within the last three years.
Orillia spokesmen might also be reminded that up until this year, the “woodshed” which they called upon visiting teams to play hockey in, was a disgrace to a town of Orillia’s scope.
Stouffville fans are quite proud of their arena and its achievements which are quite remarkable when the size of the municipality is considered and they do not take it all kindly to visiting broadcasters “shooting off” untrue criticism merely to bolster their own fans sagging morale.
Maurice Walsh, well-known referee in the Maritimes, N.H.L. and American League handled the Clipper-Terrier game here on Saturday night. The official met up with Bob Bangay, Hal Gibson and George Stark who starred down on the East Coast during his years of refereeing in the Maritime League. According to him the local threesome put on a dazzling display during their stint with North Sydney and have added considerable strength to the Clippers since coming here over a year ago. RONNIE BELL LED CLIPPERS TO WIN OVER ORILLIA IN FIRST GAME OF SR. ‘B’ GROUP FINALS
On Saturday night the Stouffville Clippers led by their ace centre star, Ronnie Bell, took a one game lad over Orillia terriers in their best four out of seven game series for the Senior ‘B’ group Championship. Bell turned in a spectacular performance for the local squad as Clippers defeated the Terriers by a score of 10-4.
The largest crowd of the season sat in on the contest and although both teams battled on fairly even terms in the first twenty minutes the locals began to surge ahead in the later stages of the game to run the score into the double digits.
With Sanderson of Orillia serving an interference penalty, Stark broke in on the Terrier cage and beat Clarke in the net with a hard backhand drive. Six minutes later with both teams playing a man short defenceman Jack Dyte evened the count on a pass from Payne. At 9.16 Ronnie bell leashed his first attack assisted by Nick Bangay but once again the terriers fought back on even terms with Clary Payne blinking the light on a smooth passing effort in front of the Clipper cage. Ronnie bell gave the Clippers the lead at the fourteen minute mark and polly Minton put his team two up three minutes later from Jack Watson and Bob Bangay to end the scoring for the first period.
Hardly had the puck been dropped to open the second frame when Ronnie Bell blasted the rubber into the cage for his third goal unassisted. Play see-sawed back and forth with both goalies, Eatough and Clarke being tested on numerous occasions. At 14.30 ex-Clipper Earl McCrone took advantage of a Clipper penalty to net the third Terrier goal.
Stouffville opened the scoring in the third period as george Stark twisted and turned up to centre ice and flipped the puck to Nick bangay who was flying over the blueline. Nick broke into the clear and made no mistake with a bullet drive to the corner. Following the tally Stark was thumbed to the penalty box and during his stay in the cooler the Terriers threw every man into the attack in an effort to get back in the game. Although short handed Nick Bangay grabbed the puck at centre ice and raced in on the Terrier net only to have Clarke make a great stop. As Stark was about to return to the ice Payne scored the fourth and final Orillia goal from McCrone and Kelly. The Terrier kept up a sustained drive only to have goalie Eatough pull off some sensational saves on pucks that were labelled sure goals.
The letter seven minutes of the period were all Stouffville with the locals completely overpowering their rivals. Ronnie bell notched his fourth goal while lying on his back in front of the net and Gibson rifled a low shot into the cage twenty seconds later after being set up perfectly by winger Jack Rumney. Bob Bangay got back into the scoring column after being out of the lineup for two months due to a knee injury and Hal Gibson completed the scoring from Rumney with but seconds remaining in the game.
It would be impossible to pick out any individual star from the Clipper squad as the entire team turned in a good effort. Ronnie bell kept the score keepers busy all night and Hal Gibson credited himself with two goals. Nick Bangay practically took the entire Orillia team single handed when killing off penalties and Polly Minton was skating hard all night. The next home game between these clubs will be scheduled for Thursday night of this week

With but thirty seconds remaining in regulation time, Nick Bangay fired the tying goal to send the Stouffville Clippers and Orillia Terriers into overtime on Saturday night in the fourth game of their best-of-seven series for the Senior ‘B’ group championship. With the Terriers leading 3-2 in the last minute of play, Clary Payne star Orillia forward in attempting to clear the puck out of his own zone passed the rubber onto the stick of Bangay who was standing unprotected midway between the blueline and the net. Nick let his shot go that sent both teams into the ten minute overtime session. Both clubs notched a goal in the overtime.
Earl McCrone had the first wide open chance in the early minutes of the game to give the Terriers the lead as he cruised in on Eatough but the speedy winger failed to score. On the next rush down the ice Ronnie Bell raced in on Ross but missed the net with a bullet drive. Sanderson of the Terriers was the hard luck player of the night as he missed chance after chance when in alone on the Clipper net. At 15,18 of the opening period Stephenson trapped a loose puck on the Orillia blueline and let a low drive go that had Ross beaten all the way.
George Stark of the Clippers wound up for one of his spectacular lone rushes only to bounce the puck off the post in the early minutes of the second period. Before the crowd had time to catch their breath, Kelly of Orillia blazed a shot at Eatough that the young goaltender pulled out of the air in spectacular style. At the six minute mark the Terriers evened the count with Payne blinking the light from McCrone and Whitney and five minutes later Dyte put Orillia one up from Bowen and Whitney. With Machin serving an elbowing penalty, Payne of the Terriers broke right through the Clipper defence only to have Eatough sprawl across the goal mouth and make another single-handed stop.
Orillia increased their lead in the opening minute of the third period as Whitney scored unassisted but Stephenson put the Clippers back in the game with a low drive at 6.12 of the final twenty minutes of regulation time. Sanderson of Orillia had the big chance to sew the game up for his club as he tested the Clipper goalie on two separate occasions only to have Eatough pull off some dazzling saves. As the final seconds ticked Coach Bob Bangay threw four forwards and one defenceman int the battle in a gamble that paid off with the tying tally.
Although both clubs were dead on the skates at the end of regulation time they continued to set a terrific pace. At 1.07 put the Clippers in the lead but the Terriers fought back to tie the count at 4.14 as A. Bowen deflected the rubber into the net. The most spectacular single-handed display aside from the the work of the two goaltenders we the penalty killing effort of Coach Bob Bangay who ragged the puck back and forth across the ice for the greater part of a minute before he was finally pinned against the boards and forced to shoot the puck down the ice. Scarcely had the Terriers retrieved the rubber when Bangay stole it again once more stickhandling around the baffled Orillia forwards. In an effort to stop ohm Payne tripped Bangay and was thumbed to the box to join Hal Gibson who was also serving a tripping penalty. Neither team could break the tie although the Terriers came within an ace of notching the winner. Forward Bud Watson flipped the rubber off the line and although the goal judge’s decision was hotly argued the score remained Stouffville 4, Orillia 4. CLIPPERS EDGE ORILLIA 2-1 TO TAKE 3-1 LEAD IN SR. SERIES
Stouffville Clippers took a definite edge over Orillia terriers in their best four-our-of-seven game series for the Senior ‘B’ group championship by taking the all-important fifth game on Tuesday night by a score of 2-1. The Clippers need but a tie on Thursday night in Orillia to gain the group championship honours.
After battling to a 4-4 deadlock on Saturday night in Orillia, both clubs realized that the winner here on Tuesday night would have an advantage in the series. If orillia had been able to even the series they would be hard to stop while a victory for the homesters would give them a three to one game lead.
Ronnie bell opened the scoring at 6.19 of the first period after picking up a pass from winger Hal Gibson to rifle a shot through the pads of goaltender Ross. Scarcely more than a minute later Herb Rose, playing one of his best games of the series on defence for the Clippers, battled hard for the puck inside the Orillia blueline flipping it out to centreman Bob Bangay. The Clipper playing coach made no mistake with a bullet shot into the centre of the net. This tally proved to be the winning goal. Late in the period Jack Watson was thumbed to the penalty box for high sticking and although the Terriers put on a terrific five man attack the outstanding penalty killing effort on Nick bangay held the Orillia marksmen at bay until the Clippers returned to full strength,
The second period proved to be a battle of goaltenders with both Eatough in the Clipper cage and Ross in the Orillia net coming through with some sparkling saves. As in the previous encounter the locals labelled shot after shot in the general direction of the Terrier goal only to have a padded figure flick out a glove and pull the rubber out of the air in spectacular fashion. Nick bangay suffered what was believed at first to be a serious leg injury as he was hit hard by Sanderson in his own zone and had to retire from the game for a short time. However, the popular star returned later in the period to continue in the see-saw battle.
With seven seconds remaining in the second frame Ab Bowen skated over centre ice and let go a powerful shot that caromed off the glove of goalie Eatough and rolled across the line to put the Orillia squad back in the heat go the game once more.
With the Clippers leading by a narrow margin of one goal the visitors pressed in a vain attempt to notch the equalizer in the final twenty minutes. As the Terriers threw their attack into high gear the Clippers managed to break into the clear on several occasions but failed to lengthen their lead. Both forwards Hal Gibson and george Stark raced in on an unprotected Ross but each time they were stopped dead at the goal crease. With seconds remaining the Terriers drew their goaltender out of the net in favour of an extra forward but the locals held out. The Clippers outshot their rivals 34-18 on the night’s play BADMINTON

TERRIERS UPSET CLIPPERS ON HOME ICE, 4-2
Orillia Terriers proved that they were far from finished in the O.H.A. Senior ‘B’ group finals as they handed the local Clippers a defeat on Thursday night. It was one of those games where the team with dogged determination were the winners and although the Clippers sizzled the rubber towards the Terriers net from every side and angle the couldn’t seem to find the openings to pull the game out of the fire. In the first two period the homesters outshot their rivals twenty-three to eleven but the outstanding work of Goalie Ross in the Orillia net saved the day on many occasions.

STOUFFVILLE CLIPPERS WIN SR. ‘B’ GROUP CHAMPIONSHIP, DEFEAT ORILLIA TERRIERS 4 GAMES TO 1
Stouffville came through in sensational style Thursday night to defeat Orillia terriers 7-3 and win the Senior ‘B’ Group Championship four games to one. It was a great sires between the two clubs, a series that saw the Terriers battle the favoured Clippers with a dogged determination that will long be remembers by the hundreds of hockey fans who supported both teams during the entire series. Although the local squad took the first two games of the final round quite handily 10-4 and 6-0 the terriers fought right back with a 4-2 victory here and then tied the following contest in Orillia 4-4. A 2-1 victory by the Clippers in the fifth game proved to be a big win and the homesters could not be stopped in Orillia on Thursday night outscoring their rivals by a 7-3 count. The most outstanding hockey display throughout the final round has been the work of the two goalkeepers, Eatough of the Clippers and Ross of the Terriers. Both players turned in terrific performances in every game and won the hearty applause of the fans as they came up with one dazzling save after another. The six games between these two clubs have indeed been the battle of goaltenders. Goalie Blake Eatough played the entire six game series and turned aside 129 pucks fired in the direction of the Clipper net. Grant “Gander” Ross in the Terrier cage handled 144 shots in five games.
Jack Watson opened the scoring for the Clippers after six minutes had ticked by in the first period. Bob Bangay set Watson up for the tally. Two minutes later george Stark flipped the puck to Bud Watson who made no mistake with his shot and at 11.25 the Clipper centre star notched his second goal to give his club a 3-0 lead. The Bud Watson, George Stark, Nick Bangay line were literally flying in the opening twenty minutes as they coasted through the Orillia defence time and time again.
Orillia counted their first marker of the game with Long blinking the light from Sanderson at 4.45 of the second period. With the Clippers pressing into the Terrier zone Stark caught the eye of referee Butters and was banished with a two minute tripping penalty. Although playing with a one man advantage the eTriers found it impossible to penetrate the Clipper defence. Morley Petch, who turned in one of his best games of the series blocked one attacking forward after another until the Terriers were forced to shoot the puck into the Stouffville zone from centre ice and race in after it. Hardly had Stark returned to the ice when Petch was thumbed to the box and once again the Terriers were held at bay this time with some outstanding checking on the part of Nick Bangay. With a matter of seconds left to play and with the locals playing a man short a wild scramble developed around the Clipper net. Although the Stouffville squad attempted to clear defenceman Jack Dyte picked up the loose puck and drilled it over the prone form of Eatough to end the scoring for the period.
The Clippers shifted into overdrive in the third and final period as they pimped in three tallies to a lone goal scored by the Terriers. George Stark, by far the best player on the ice raced in on the Orillia net after receiving a perfect pass from Nick Bangay to pock the far corner with a bullet drive. At the eight minute mark Gibson, Bell Stephenson combined for the nicest three way passing play of the night. Stephenson completed the pattern play for the fifth Clipper goal. Midway through the period Stark picked up a loose puck at centre ice, shifted defenceman Patterson practically out of the rink as he cut into centre and beat Ross in the Orillia net with a well-aimed shot. Hardly had the Clipper number one line left the ice when Gibson, Bell and Stephenson swarmed into the Orillia zone and sizzled three direct shote dead on the Orillia net only to have goalie Ross rise to the occasion and block every drive from the dashing threesome.
In a wild scramble around the Clipper goal netminder Eatough fell on a loose puck only to have Ab Bowen bring his stick down with resounding force on the outstretched glove of the local star. The blow dislocated a finger requiring a doctor’s attention and giving the goalie considerable pain. As the final whistle sounded the Orillia squad skated over to to offer their congratulations to the Champion Clippers and wish them the best of luck in the gems that lie ahead. The Clippers now await another group winner as they begin their march towards the OHA Senior ‘B’ Championship. BRUIN AND LEAFS WIN OPENING PEEWEE PLAYOFF

It seemed almost too good to be true that out own Stouffville Clippers are well on their way to the Ontario Senior’B’ Championship. The Stouffville crew have been flying during the first two games with the Port and their perfectly timed passing plays have confused the opposition’s defenses giving goalkeeper Rafferty no chance to hold off the Clippers attackers. Every line has been going strong during the series and the defence are playing equally good hockey throwing up a formidable stone wall in front of Norm Stunden. The game on Saturday night played on very poor ice showed signs of getting rough as the players began to throw their weight around, Fifteen penalties were handed out, ten to the Clippers and five to Port.
With both teams playing a man short Morley Petch carried over the blueline and flipped the rubber to bell who blazed a bullet drive to the top corner before Rafferty could make a move. Hal Gibson raced in on the net and took his shot. Stephenson cut in fast to pick up the rebound for the second tally of the game. Earl Suthon broke the ice for Port Colbourne as he rolled the rubber over the line with assists going to Buck and Semley. Tempers flared as polly Minton was hit hard on the boards after the whistle sounded. Coach Bob Bangay rushed in to assist Minton and other players quickly joined the shoving bee. Official sent Bangay to the penalty box for roughing with no penalties being handed out to the Merchants.
In the first five minutes of the second frame Port’s ganging attacks might have proved successful but the Merchants in attempting to play rough ran into a series of penalties which took the steam out of their drive. Morley Petch who was mixed up in about everything caught the eye of the officials on three successive occasions. It was during his absence from the ice that Nick Bangay and George Stark put on a terrific penalty killing display.
In the final period with Petch of the Clippers still in the cooler Leach of Port Colbourne flew in on Stunden on a perfect play only to miss the post by inches. With both teams at full strength Archie Katzman put his team on even terms with a hard drive to the far corner of the net but from that point on it was all Stouffville. At 3.50 H. Gibson and Morley petch executed a perfect goal. Less than a minute later Stark after circling the net a couple of times, drifted a backhand into the net with N. Bangay picking up the assist. Jack Rumney tallied the fifth Clipper goal from Stephenson and Gibson. On the night’s play the Clippers outshot the Merchants 25-19. CAN WRAP UP SR. HOCKEY TITLE WITH WIN THURSDAY NIGHT

In the early minutes of the second period Nick bBangay split the Merchants defence wide open and sailed in alone only to have Rafferty fall to the ice and block his shot. Bud Watson flew in fast for the rebound but just failed to poke the loose puck into the open corner. At the five minute mark Semley of the visitors came out of nowhere to backhand a loose puck by Stunden. Frank Stephenson notched the most spectacular tally of the game as Lafferty attempted to beat the Clipper forward cam sprawling out to the blueline only to have the speedy winger stickhandle around his prone form and sift the rubber into the empty net.

GIFTS AND TROPHIES SHOWERED ON LOCAL HOCKEY CHAMPS.
Thursday night, May 15th, was an occasion that will long be remembered in Stouffville. It was a night of celebration, a night of tribute and thanks to both to and from the victorious Clippers, O.H.A. Senior ‘B’ Champions.
For days, various appointed committees had been working strenuously, decorating the hall, preparing the bountiful meal and providing entertainment in order that nothing but the best would be offered to the conquering heroes.
one by one the players, O.H.A. guest and officials entered the hall to sit down at tables laden with good things to eat. Following the meal, Bunny Morganson, genial master of ceremonies from the Toronto Telegram introduced the toastmaster of the evening, on of the most enthusiastic sportsman in the town, Mr. F.L. Button. Mr. Button in proposing the toast to the team, recalled the thrill that had been enjoyed by the fans during the hockey season. The speaker emphasized the one spectacular event that was still clear in the minds of many fans that were on hand to see the Clippers rally from a two goal deficit in the final game with Peterboro to win the contest in overtime. That victory seemed to set the stage for the championship.
“By bringing the Senior ‘B’ Championship home to Stouffville you have really put the town on the sports map.,” commented Mr. Button.
Coach Bob Bangay, in giving the key address of the evening, explained that a great portion of the success attained by the club was due to the determination of the individual players plus the assistance he has received from the manager of the club, Tim O’Neill, and Secretary-Treasure Tefl Rennie. The Clipper playing coach also thanked the arena management for their co-operation and all those who played a big part in the Clippers march up the victory ladder.
“ It has always been my ambition to captain and coach a team a team to the Championship and now both have been realized,” said Bob. A number of fans will remember when a clever centre star captained a Jr. ‘C’ squad to the championship for Markham a few years back.
In turning to the lighter side of his remarks the Clipper coach passed comments on each of his players from the goaltenders through to the forwards. Their dressing room habits, nick names, and actions on and off the ice were divulged to the interested assembly in a jovial manner.
Reeve Henry Ogden, on behalf of the town, presented the Clippers with engraved watches while W. A. Hewitt, who is celebrating his 49th year as OHA secretary awarded the W.A. Hewitt Trophy, symbolic of the OHA Senior ‘B’ Title to the manager Tim O’Neill. Jack Roxburgh of Simcoe, retiring president, presented OHA medals. Guy Rutledge offered congratulations to Morley Petch, star Clipper defenceman on winning the Maple Leaf Dairy popularity trophy and Murray Holden awarded the Bill ball Trophy to Captain Hal Gibson, the team’s top scorer. Len Wilkes completed the perfect evening by presenting each player with a white shirt and tie.
Following the presentation Miss Nancy MaCaque provided numerous accordion selections and thrilled the audience with her musical ability. Nancy Johnson concluded the fine program with many pleasing elocutionist selections that had her listeners almost rolling off their chairs.
With the conclusion of the victory banquet, the village of Stouffville rings down the hockey curtain on one of the most successful seasons in its history and it is hoped the fastest sport in the world will continue to flourish in this town for many years to come.

FOUR RUN RALLY IN 8TH INNING GIVES LOCALS 8-8 TIE
Two singles, a double and five walks in the closing innings on Thursday night provided the Stouffville Red Sox with the necessary four runs to gain the locals a split in the points with Sunderland. It was a thrilling ball game all the way, one of those contests that kept fans on the edge of their seats throughout the entire seven innings.
The Sunderland crew after being down three runs lashed back with terrific batting power to the lead. Hurler Boadway who had been enjoying perfect control up until the fateful sixth innings had to relieve by Lorne Schell after he had walked two batters and grooved one over the centre that was lifted out over the centre that was lifted out of the park for a home run. During his stay on the mound he struck out five batters, walked four and was nicked for three hits. The Sunderland squad continued to race around the bases on two doubles, a single and a couple of costly errors and added four more runs to their total. However when everything seemed lost the Red Sox rallied to even the count.
Woodward the first batter to face hurler Boadway smashed a four bagger into the daisies but two successive strike outs on Welsh and Kerr has a force out held the visitors down to a single run. In the locals turn at bat, McMullen went down swinging but Chadwick pounded out a neat double to score on a single by Hassard. Ken Schell brought Hassard in with a well placed hit as the Red Sox took a 2-1 lead.
Neither team could score a run until the local came at bat in the fifth and added two more to their total. Chadwick received a free ticket to first and stole second on a wild throw by catcher Farrell. Ken Schell came through with the best hit for the homesters when he lifted a long triple through the centre field fence. Nicholson walked and Smith flied to deep centre allowing Schell to score after the catch. On the throw-in to third base however Nicholson was nabbed and although he argued that the ball was dropped the umpire stuck to his ruling and the side was retired.
Although the seven runs scored by Sunderland in the sixth innings might have been enough to shatter the spirit of many ball clubs it failed to dampen the effects of the Red Sox who surged back in their turn at bat to tie the score. Cote, the first man to face pitcher Jim Beeton pounded out a two bagger and Lehman walked to put two men on base. Although Lorne Schell flied to the baseman McMullen hit safely. However on the play, Lehman was tagged out at third and any chance of a rally seemed dim. Chadwick worked the pitcher for a walk and Hassard drove McMullen across with a single. Following another walk to first baseman K. Schell the Sunderland battery decided they should change places so Beeton donned the pads and Farrell strode out to the mound. This change in tactics did not improve the situation, however, as Nicholson and Smith walked to bring in the tying runs. Although Sunderland came to bat to start the eighth innings the umpire was forced to call the contest because of darkness. HOUSE LEAGUE JUNIOR BALLERS, MIDGET O.B.A BYE

UXBRIDGE OUTCLASSES IN TRI-COUNTY LEAGUE GAME HERE
Although the Uxbridge squad sent three pitchers to the mound in a desperate attempt to hold the local batters in check, the home town Red Sox smashed all three hurlers for a total of twenty-two runs. The pitching staff of the visiting crew seemed to lack control and allowed sixteen Stouffville batters free tickets to first base. Lorne Boadway, hurling his game in red Sox company came through in fine style and was never in trouble throughout the contest. He credited himself with nine strike outs, walked four and gave up three hits.

The management of the Stouffville Red Sox baseball club have decided not to enter a team in O.B.A. competition this season. In past years the local club have received a bye into the O.B.A. some time in the late fall when the games all have to be played in the afternoon. This situation makes it very difficult for many of the players for many of the players to break off work in the middle of the day. Another factor which prompted the withdrawal of the local squad was the fact that many of the late O.B.A. games are played with snow in the air and it is natural that a club will not receive strong fan support under these conditions.

During the past week two games were played in the Stouffville House Baseball League. The contest on Tuesday, July 8th, saw the Giants victorious over the Indians by an 1408 score while the following evening the Indians fought back to defeat the Dodgers 11-9 in a close battle.
In Tuesday night’s contest, Murray McMullen’s Giants took an early 1-0 lead which was soon wiped out by a four run outburst that put the Indians in the drivers seat. In the fourth innings the Giants tied the score and went on to take a commanding lead and win the game. Murray Stewart came through with some solid hits with Murphy slamming out a four bagger during the contest.

CLIPPERS TO JOIN IN FORMING A NEW SENIOR ‘B‘ GROUP
The management of the Stouffville Clippers hockey club will join together with the heads of other teams on Tuesday, July 29th, in an effort to form a local Senior ‘B‘ group and cut down on the long distance traveling such as was the case last season. Jack Kavanagh, manager of the Scarboro memorial arena, has invited Toronto and District Senior ‘B‘ hockey clubs to an organization meeting at the arena. Such clubs as east York, Leaside, Weston, Newmarket, Dixie, Scarboro and Stouffville are all expected to attend.
If an agreement can be reached the move would no doubt be very successful in two ways. In the first place the long seventy-five and eighty mile trips to Midland and Collingwood would be eliminated as all the above mentioned centres are within easy reach. Such excursions to distant points are not only costly tot he clubs but also very hard on players who arrive home in the early hours of the morning after a strenuous game only to commence their daily duties after a few hours sleep. The second advantage would be the elimination of a circuit overcrowded with teams intermediate rating. Last season in the five team loop, three of the clubs were intermediate and two were Senior ‘B’. Fan support during the regular schedule could not be expected to be large as the majority of the games were exhibition contests. More information should be available following this important meeting on Tuesday, July 29th. RED SOX NIP SUNDERLAND, GET FIVE HITS IN 7TH
What gives the Red Sox that extra drive in the closing innings of a game?

Two teams in the league, Sutton and Sunderland, have been victims of this last ditch push and both squads have seen their leads diminished on five occasions.
Early in the season in the first meeting between Sunderland and Stouffville, the locals were trailing 8-4 but the Red Sox forged back with four runs in the sixth to gain a tie. The Red Sox have pulled this surprise rally in their last two games scoring two runs in the final two innings to win 12-11 and on Friday of last week the Sunderland crew saw the homesters break up the ball game in the seventh and eighth innings with single runs to come out on the top end of a 7-5 score. early in the schedule in a game with Sutton the Red Sox were trailing 3-1 until the sixth when they came through with two runs for a 4-3 victory. A few games later the Sutton squad were leading the local 2-0 until the fateful six when the roof caved in and the Red Sox tallied nine runs. It’s a good sign when a team is able to come from behind and speaks well for the determined spirit of the players.
On Friday night the same story held true when the Red Sox came through in the final stages of their contest with Sunderland. to win 7-5. The locals broke into an early lead as Raxlin, Lehman and Hassard scored in succession. Sunderland came back with one run in the second as beeton scored but the Red Sox scored a pair in the third on runs be Lehman and Hassard to increase their lead. In the fifth, however, Sunderland rallied to tie the game up as Kerr, Anderson and Brethour came through with single runs. The Red Sox slashed out three hits in the seventh scoring one run and added another in the eighth to salt the game away. Hassard crossed the plate for the tie-breaker and Chadwick scored the final Stouffville run. Lorne Schell and Chadwick formed the battery for the winners with Tommy Welsh and Beeton being the opposition on the mound and behind the plate. Bud Lehman once more set the pace for the homesters at bat with three hits in five trips. Bob Hassard came through with two hits and a walk in five chances with Murray McMullen hitting two for four. Hurler Schell held the opposition batters to six scattered hits with no batter getting more than one hit the entire nine inning contest. BUTTONVILLE WINS PITCHERS‘ BARRLE

When both clubs found themselves dead-locked at the end of regular time they agreed to play and decide a winner. In the eighth Button sneaked a run in to take the game.
In the other game on Thursday night Markham downed Peaches 12-1. Bruce Forgie and Mark Mills shared mound duty for the losers with Peg O’Neil going the limit for Markham .

STOUFFVILLE – PEACHES GIRLS LOCKED IN PLAYOFF DUEL
The large crowd of spectators who turned out to see the fifth and supposedly final game between Stouffville and Peaches girls for the Intermediate Big Six League Championship saw more than they ever anticipated. They saw the local squad take a 3-1 lead; they saw Peaches rally with six runs in the fifth; they saw Stouffville come back with four more runs in the bottom of the innings; they saw Peaches add two more runs to their total in the sixth and one of the biggest arguments ever staged at the local ball park. To many of the spectators the situation was very confusing and half the number in attendance went home unaware of the final score.
It is true when the game was called because of darkness at the end of the sixth innings, Peaches was leading by a score if 9-8. According to a number of Stouffville p[layers all games must either go five or seven innings and since the seventh innings were not completed the score should automatically revert back to the fifth, This idea was not at all welcomed by the rural squad who believed they had won the contest. After considerable controversy over the subject it was decided to play another game under floodlights.
Marg Schell and Helen Snowball worked together for the local squad. Stouffville, in the second innings made two runs giving them a 2-1 lead on scores by Helen Paisley and Helen Goudie.
In the sixth with Peaches leading by two, Helen Snowball hit a homer to put Stouffville one run back. What happens now is anybody’s guess. Whatever the outcome we hope a champion will be decided in the near future before the players resort to snow shoes and ear muffs.

O.H.A. DRAWS 30-GAME SCHEDULE FOR NEW SENIOR HOCKEY LEAGUE
A final meeting was held in Oshawa during the weekend to culminate the new O.H.A. Senior ‘B’ hockey league in which the Stouffville Clippers will participate this winter.

Stouffville will have fifteen home games during the regular schedule. Nine Saturday nights and six Wednesday nights. The six team loop will be Stouffville, Oshawa, Orillia, Peterborough, Belleville and Kingston.

Stouffville insisted on this point in order to give their players a weekend rest. All teams are Senior Clubs with the first and second team in each section playing off, and the winners meeting for the league championship.
While the schedule as being drawn up by the O.H.A. officials may stand p[at, Oshawa is shortly to take a vote on Sunday sport, and if successful, the Oshawa Club would be playing all there at home games on Sunday afternoon.
There has also been a rumour that the Peterboro Eagles who were ousted from O.H.A. competition last year for an infraction of regulations, might try and re-enter the group. However, the new league is established and any new club which might wish to enter can do so with the consent of all the other members.
The schedule is expected to commence either the first or the second week of November. Definite dates will be announced next week. Ice is already in at Oshawa and Belleville where Chicago and Boston NHL clubs are practicing and will be here in Stouffville within three weeks.

CANADIAN MIDDLEWEIGHT CHAMP WINS BOUT HERE IN TWO FALLS
Ed Mangotich recently crowned middleweight amateur champ of Canada won his sixty minute bout with Don George last week in the Stouffville Arena in two straight falls. The 175-lb.. Mangotich took approximately 23 minutes to win the bout.
In the preliminary event of this final wrestling show for the season joe greenfield 153 pounder won over Cleave Burton with one fall in 22 minutes.
The feature vent of the night saw Antonia Roccoi waved out by referee Flicker who declared Billy Cubine the winner of the third and deciding fall in 7.52 seconds. Flicker took a real pasting from the crowd all evening and was thought to be too lax in his handling of the bouts. BOB HASSARD IMPRESSIVE AT MAPLE LEAF TRAINING CAMP
Bob Hassard who looks to Stouffville as his home town is going great guns in the Leafs hockey camp in St. Catharines and presently looks like a sure bet for regular berth with the big-time squad. Bob did a stellar job during this past summer of coaching for the minor baseballers in town under the sponsorship of the Stouffville Athletic Club in addition to being playing boss of the Stouffville Tri-County League Intermediate entry.
Bob appears to be a cinch to make the hockey Leafs, at least in the fourth string centre, if not as the regular pivot for Gord Hannigan and george Armstrong line.
Bobby, a level-headed young man who intend to be a farmer when re retires from hockey was with Marlboro Juniors and was plagued by sickness just when it looked he was on his way. He saw Ray Timgren, a line mate leave him behind on the road to the NHL. But Bob plugged away first with the Marlboro Seniors and then Pittsburgh. oHs work was so good under king Clancy last winter that he earned promotion to the parent squad.
To date, Hassard has made the most of his opportunities and is one of the best looking centres in camp. He and linemates Hannigan and Armstrong have topped the early scrimmages with their work as a unit.
The trio does tricks supposed to be the stock in trade of veterans. Hassard has the knack of being in the right place at the right time. Not only can he give or take a pass, but he is always there to back up his mates and field those loose pucks. In addition, he knows how to put the boot heel in the net.
This past summer Bobby started to build a herd of Aberdeen-Angus cattle on his uncle’s farm at Stouffville. he hopes to have a sizeable herd before his puck-chasing days are over.
The betting is that he, the potentially great Armstrong and the Hard-working hannigan will stay together to give the Leafs a top rookie line. Hassard is the baby who has to do the most work because he is playing in Max Bentley’s shadow. If Bobby slips a notch, then Max will move in. If he keeps producing, Max may end up on one of the other lines. OSHAWA COUPLE WIN SINCLAIR CUP
A very successful mixed doubles bowling tournament was staged at Claremont on Friday evening of last week as Mr. and Mrs. E. Goodman of Oshawa walked off withe Sinclair Trophy with a high of three wins. Mr. and Mrs. Merv Watts of Stouffville were the Champions last year. Other winners at the tournament were Mrs. Gordon Lemon and Mrs. Fred Crossen of Stouffville with a high for three wins; Mr. and Mrs. Poyser, Agincourt, with a high for two wins and Mr. and Mrs. Elgin Wagg of Stouffville with a high for one win. ORILLIA OPENS SENIOR HOCKEY SCHEDULE HERE NOV. 8TH
Orillia Terriers will ring up the curtain on another thrilling season of Senior ‘B’ hockey in the Stouffville Arena on Nov. 8th. On Wednesday night , Nov. 12th, local fans will see Peterboro battle it out with the home town squad. Hockey fans in the district are still talking about the playoff series between these two teams last spring in which the Clippers edged the Petes four games to two and paved the way along the Championship road.
The Clippers swing into action on Saturday, Nov. 1st, when they journey to Orillia. STOUFFVILLE-PEACHES OPEN NEW SERIES
Teams to Play Under Agincourt Floodlights
At a special meeting of the Big Six Markham Twp. Girls Softball League held in Claremont on Thursday night it was decided after considerable discussion that a new series should be arranged between Peaches and Stouffville under lights and the team taking two of the three games be declared the champions. The first two games will be played this week at Agincourt on Wednesday and Friday night with the third game, if necessary, to be played in the early part of the following week.
As everyone probably knows both squads were deadlocked in the series just concluded with two wins and a hotly argued tie. The league representatives hardly thought it fair to play one game to decide the championship so a three game series was ordered.
The names of the three umpires were mentioned and two of these will be picked to handle the plate and the bases. Chuck Blunder and Morris Procenko of Unionville and Red Fleming of Agincourt were thought to be quite capable of the positions. MINOR HOCKEY INSURANCE PLAN
The Ontario Minor Hockey association executive at a weekend meeting in Tweed approved a plan of insuring players, managers, coaches and referees against accident or injury.
The insurance, to be provided to teams at a low premium rate, cover travel to and from games as well as accidents in play.
The executive also decided to recommend to the annual meeting that teams representing townships would not be admitted to the league — they must represent villages, towns or cities; that referee forums be abolished and be replaced by rules meetings with managers and coaches.
A presentation was made to President Herbert Parker of Stratford in recognition of his work for minor hockey.
Mr. Jim Austin, local O.M.H.A. executive member, attended the convention. EDITOR’S MAIL

LIONS TO SPONSOR MINOR HOCKEY AGAIN THIS YEAR
The Stouffville Lions Club will again undertake the worthy project of sponsoring minor hockey in the Stouffville Arena every Saturday morning form the middle of October until the end of the season. Last winter some seventy boys took part in the free Saturday morning activity ranging in age from nine pt fifteen years. Four teams were formed taking the names of popular N.H.L. clubs. The project will cost the local organization $600 for the minimum of twenty-five Saturday mornings. Many of the members felt that the building up of local hockey talent as well as producing good sportsmanship among the lads was the worthy undertaking that the Stouffville Lions Club had yet sponsored. No doubt that many parents of these youngsters appreciate what is being done as much as the boys themselves. Already some five coaches have been selected from the Club to handle the teams. Uniforms will also be provided. FANS TAKING UP SEASON TICKETS
There has been quite a turnover to date of subscribers’ tickets for the forthcoming Senior Hockey season in Stouffville. The idea of season tickets is being well received. The regular admission price to all regular Senior hockey games this year is 75c the same as the rate for the reserves and for this season many are taking advantage of the season tickets so they can always be assured of a good seat. They also like the idea of being able to have the same seats for playoffs,
According to the hockey and arena management these are the lowest rates possible for senior hockey operation and are lower than several of the other clubs in the same circuit.
The same student admissions will be operated again this year with the tickets being sold at the High School.
The idea of using these season’s ticket as Christmas gifts for employees has been suggested and is being used by a couple of local business concerns. CLIPPERS HOLD FIRST WORKOUT IN LOCAL ARENA THIS WEEK

Gus Chard has joined the Clipper roster this year . He was formerly with Weston and will play in defence position DON’T SELL THE CLIPPERS SHORT
There were many local fans who received the surprise of their lives on Saturday night when the local Clippers walked off with a 4-1 verdict over the rugged Orillia Terriers. Everyone knew that the Senior ‘B’ champs have lost some of last year’s star players but they still have many of their sensational performers left who have no intention of handing over the silverware. In addition to the majority of top-notch players remaining from last season Coach Bob Bangay has signed up new blood with the team and has his eye on others. “A team that won’t be beat, can’t be beat” is the slogan that carried the Clippers to their first win of the season and a team with such a fighting spirit is a credit to any town. CLIPPERS DOWN ORILLIA 4-1 IN SENIOR HOCKEY OPENER
Stouffville Clippers started their 1952-53 Senior ‘B’ schedule on the right foot by downing Orillia Terriers 4-1 in a rough and rugged contest on Saturday night. For the first minute of the opening period the Terriers swarmed all around the Clipper net and peppered one shot after another at goaltender Blake Eatough only to be stopped cold on every attempt. With the Terriers playing wide open hockey coach Bob Bangay grabbed a loose puck at his own blueline and raced in with Stephenson on the Orillia net. The Clipper centre star deked the lone defenceman out of position and flipped the rubber to Stephenson who blinked the light with a low drive. This sudden setback increased the efforts of the Terriers who bore into the attack with reckless determination. Play became very rough at this point as players on both sides rocked one another with stiff body checks. The Terriers continued to press until Bowen slapped in McCrone’s rebound to tie the score.
The Clippers took over complete control of the second period and kept the Orillia goaltender on his toes during the twenty minute session. With only forty second remaining in the period Gord Lewis and George Stark worked the puck over the Terrier line to set Stephenson up alone in front of the net. The Clipper scoring star made no mistake as he sank the puck in the corner.
The feature fight of the night broke out midway through the second period when herb Rose and Rusty Aikens tangled along the boards. The rugged Stouffville rearguard lashed out with a Marciano right that sent Aikens reeling on the ice. As the Terrier forward came back for round two, Rose changed his tactics and hurled his opposition to the ice with a Yukon Eric headlock. Each player received an additional two minutes being tacked onto the Clipper defenceman.
Play opened up in the third frame as the Terriers tried desperately to get back on even terms. B. Bangay received a tripping penalty in the early minutes of the period and during that time the Orillia attackers failed to get a direct shot on the net.
Hal Gibson put the Clippers two goals up when he broke free from centre ice and although Orillia’s Al Bowen was breathing down his neck all the way he failed to overtake the speedy winger. Two minutes later george Stark raced in on Ross in the Terrier cage and after pulling Davison on the Orillia defence completely out of position backhanded the puck into the corner to end the scoring. The Stouffville defence played well and aided by steady goaltending they cooled out the most dangerous attacks offered by the Terriers FRIDAY NIGHT TO BE “JUNIOR HOCKEY NIGHT “ IN STOUFFVILLE THIS WEEK
The Clippers stepped out onto the ice on Orillia all decked out in their new uniforms giving the squad a smart appearance for the opening game of the season. The players on both teams were introduced to some 700 spectators before the game commenced

What happened to the thousands of pheasants released in this area early in the summer?
That’s what the local hunters wanted to know when the pheasant season opened.
Not a few were out in the woods at daylight, confident they’d be home by noon with their limit of three birds. But lots had to stay out until dark, and still didn’t bag their quota.
Predictions that the weather would warm up gave the hunters’ spirits a lift. They hoped the birds would come out of their snow “hiding.”
The mystery still remains however — “What happened to those birds?” Could be pheasant are getting smarter. STOUFFVILLE AND PEACHES BOTH PLACE ENTRIES IN ONT. RURAL LEAGUE
The two local hockey teams, Peaches and Stouffville have decided to enter the ORHA for the coming season. Stouffville will definitely go Senior along with Markham. Sutton and probably Port Perry, Brougham, Brooklin and Peaches may play Intermediate. Should Brougham and Brooklin decide to combine their squads and join the Senior ranks, Peaches will then play in the Senior group and then obtain a bye into the Intermediate playoff following the completion of the regular schedule. Markham has a packed squad with such players as Bob Lawrie, Morley Petch, Austie baker, Jack Rumney and Frank Hill forming part of their lineup. Stouffville will retain the greater part of last year’s team including such well-known names as Les Clarke, Russ Forfar, Bruce Paisley, Bun Sellars and many others. The majority of Peaches players will be back although it is expected that one new forward line and two defencemen will be added.

For twenty minutes on Thursday night of last week, the Stouffville Clipper marksmen pelted rubber at Turk Broda guarding the net for Lyndhurst Motors and although an ex-Maple Leaf goaltender gave the fans some real thrills with his performance there were times when he seemed somewhat confused by the Clippers dazzling power.
Some of the local puck stars seemed over anxious to score on the Turk when they broke over the blueline and many shots went wild. Nick Bangay had the best chance to open the scoring when he skated through the entire Lyndhurst squad only to bounce the rubber off the post. A few minutes later George Stark bounced the puck off Broad’s pads and as the rebound came out it hit the stick of Don Couch and caromed back into the net.
Spragge and Gray on Lyndhurst were thumbed to the box for penalties and while playing with a two man advantage the Clippers had Broad doing everything but standing on his head.
Lyndhurst tied the score as Normie Gray blinked the light but Joe Lewis notched a goal that he will remember as long as he lives as he beat Broda with a low drive with an assist going to H. Hodgins. Vic Sluce put Lyndhurst on even terms in the last minute of the period.
The East York crew went on a three goal scoring spree with Spragge, Sluce and Couch beating Eatough in succession. B. Bangay put the Clippers back in the running with a tally late in the second period.
Frank Stephenson won the game for Stouffville as he fired the hat trick in order. Lyndhurst was shorthanded when all three goals were scored. Blake Eatough in the Clipper cage came through with some sensational saves when the Lyndhurst forwards skated right to his doorstep. Irwin replaced Broda after the first period. The final score read Stouffville 6 Lyndhurst 5. CLIPPERS-ORILLIA BATTLE TO DEADLOCK 7-7 IN RUGGED CONTEST
George Stark Fires Tying Goal in Final Seconds
George Stark, Clipper forward, took a pass from Gord Lewis in the final seconds of the Stouffville-Orillia game on Saturday night and sizzled a long low drive through a maze of players to give his team a 7-7 tie. Coach Bob Bangay pulled goaltender Blake Eatough out of the net in favour of an extra forward and the scheme paid off. The goal brought the crowd of wildly cheering fans to their feet. Due to the lateness of the game no overtime could be played.
The play was wide open and rugged from the opening whistle and at times the game looked more like lacrosse Th. hockey as some of the players used their sticks for everything but carrying a puck. There were four majors and two misconduct penalties handed out by Referee Walsh in the rough and tumble game. Herb Rose and Payne squared off in the first period and Nick Bangay and Payne exchanged blows in the final frame.
The first period ended with Clippers holding a 5-3 edge. Stark from Rose; Bob Bangay from Stephenson; Jack Watson from Lewis; Stephenson from B. Bangay and Bob Bangay from Gibson.
By the end of the second period the Clipper margin had been cut to one goal at the end although the Bangay brother scored another goal.
The Terriers tied the count in the third and added another to give them the lead for the first time. Play became very rough as the Terriers went on the defensive to protect their one goal lead With ten minutes to play, Bob Bangay, about to break into the clear was speared by rearguard Pearsall and when no penalty was called the Clipper coach broke his stick over the Terrier defenceman and he was thumbed to the box with a minor plus a ten minute misconduct. With but a few seconds remaining in the game Lewis, Stark, Stephenson, Gibson, N. Bangay and Bell were all thrown inside the Terrier blueline and before the amazed eyes of the crowd George Stark drove the puck through the maze of legs, skates and sticks.

SKATING CLUB HOLD ORGANIZATION MEETING
A meeting of parents interested in the Stouffville Skating Club was held on Saturday afternoon at the arena to discuss the forming of a committee to handle problems which often arise during skating season.
The following committee was selected by ballot: Mrs H. Bialy (chairman), Mrs. Burgin, Mrs. J. Mathewson, Mrs. D. Hare. Mrs. J. Baker, Mrs. J. Button, Mr. Ken Laushway.
The committee will be prepared to assist Miss Christine Kennedy, instructress, in any way necessary to organize the members at the time of the annual winter carnival. The organization is particularly interested in having new members join the club for lessons each Tuesday and Saturday. While many of the boys believe that a skating club is not “in their line” it is noticeable that many of our hockey players are poor skaters, a real handicap to a good player. Most of the pro players are members of some skating club. BANGAY BOYS LEAD CLIPPERS TO 7-4 WIN OVER PETES
Stouffville Clippers led by the hard-fighting Nick Bangay paced the local squad to a 7-4 victory over the highly rated Peterboro Petes on Wednesday night.

By the third inning the outcome of the game looked dark for the local squad as the Petes were in the lead for the first time on a three way passing play but it took Bob Bangay but one minute to even the count as he split the defence and pulled Harding completely out of the net with a spectacular exhibition of his stick handling ability. hardly had the puck been faced off when brother Nick took a pass from Stark and sizzled the puck off Harding’s glove into the twine. At 14.55 Nick Bangay practically rocked the net from its moorings as he blazed his third goal into the net on assists from Stephenson and B. Bangay. With but two minutes to go in the game Hal Gibson sent fans home happy with a goal on passes from N. Bangay and Gord Lewis. KINGSTON UPSETS CLIPPER 5-2 BEFORE OVER 2,000 FANS
Well, over two thousand fans filed into the spacious Kingston arena on Saturday night to watch their home town squad battle the Champion Clippers for the first time in the 1952-53 season. In the first period alone, the fans were treated to practically everything in the book as both clubs fought back and forth for the opening tally. The Clippers decided to go on the offence as Hal Gibson by far the best player on the ice for Stouffville, zoomed in alone on a pass from B. Bangay but Johnston in the Kingston cage pulled out a sensational stop. At 17.55 Stephenson drifted a long blueline shot towards the Kingston goal which Johnston fanned on completely. Hal Gibson picked up an assist on the play.

The Clippers evened the count a minute later as Gibson picked up a loose puck with one man back. The home-town artist shifted the lone defenceman out of position and fired a drive past the goalie.
Both teams showed signs of tiring with the Clippers reaching the point of exhaustion. The large ice surface, which measure five feet wider than Maple Leaf Gardens seemed to be taking its toll. The heated arena didn’t improve the playing conditions for either team.
With Lewis of the Clippers serving a penalty, McGregor put Kingston in the lead to stay with assists to Myke and Londry. The score remained Kingston 3, Stouffville 2, and the end of the middle frame.

In both the first and second the Orillia attackers bore in on him only to be stopped cold by one miraculous save after another,

Ronnie Bell got the lone Clipper goal from the back of the net as the puck hit a skate and rolled into the corner. G. Lewis picked up an assist on the play.
The second period was wide open hockey that developed into battle of goaltenders. Nick Bangay was the first players to bring the fans to their feet as he raced in on the Orillia cage only to have Reading, a newcomer in the nets pull of a good stop. Earl McCrone came roaring back for the Terriers only to have Eatough rob him of a sure goal. Eatough rose to outstanding heights midway through the period when he batted aside five close in shots as the local defence found it difficult to clear.
From out of a wild scramble around the Stouffville net, Hal Gibson broke clear and flew in on the terrier cage giving Reeding no chance to make a stop.

In commenting on the contest the Marlboro scout claimed that he has never realized that Senior ‘B’ hockey was so good to watch.
The Oshawa Times in recording the contest staged between the Clippers and the Smith truckmen on Thursday night of last week pays a fine tribute to the goal-tending effort turned in by Blake Eatough. The newspaper states that the netminding display of the local puck-stopper amazed the large crowd of 1500 fans in the arena. It goes on to describe how Eatough stopped cold the scoring chances of Nichols, Berwick, Hooper and Nelson in order as they broke in alone. The Times also describes the playing coach Bob Bangay as a “masterpiece of sustained drive.”

Goaltender Blake Eatough Holds the Fort
Stouffville Clippers, although playing without the services of forward Hal Gibson and defenceman Bert Baker, skated to a 3-1 victory over Oshawa Smith Truckmen in a colourful contest before close to 2,000 fans.
It was the sensational work of goaltender Blake Eatough in the Clipper cage which held Ernie Dickens’ boys off the score sheet until midway through the final period when the ex-pro sifted a low drive into the net from about fifteen feet out. The win moved the locals into the sole possession of the number one spot, one point ahead of Kingston and three point ahead of the Motor City.
The Clippers first line of Bob Bangay, Stephenson and Minton roared into the attack at the drop of the puck and for three full minutes they held the play inside the Oshawa blueline as the opposition tried desperately to clear.
At 10.25 Gord Lewis drove a backhand shot along the ice. Don Lewis picked up an assist on the play. Nick Bangay played a standout game on defence for the Clippers relieving the pressure time and time again with spectacular end to end rushes
In the early minutes of the second period goaltender Eatough pulled off an unbelievable stop as Hooper of Oshawa skated in alone, and fired into the waiting pads of the local netminder. At 6.40 Ronnie Bell made it 2-0 as he flipped a low shot into the twine on a pass from Stark.
Probably the most sensational solo effort was performed by Bob Bangay who, after being hit hard at the Oshawa defence jumped to his skates grabbed the puck and bulged the twine with a bullet shot. Bangay’s goal brought down the house as the rafters echoed with the cheers of the crowd.
Ernie Dickens notched the lone Oshawa tally midway through the third period as he shifted two players out of position giving Eatough no chance to make a stop. With less than a minute remaining, Naylor vacated the Truckers’ goal and the play almost backfired as Minton bounced the rubber off the post as the siren sounded.

Jack Watson, will be away from his work for at least six weeks and Bert Baker will eventually have to undergo an operation if his injured knee is to be fully corrected. The loss of income in these cases is a crippling blow.

Ronnie Bell was the driving force for the Clippers as he turned in a spectacular three goal exhibition and picked up an assist on the night’s play. Frank Stephenson was hid ole hard-driving player and Mark Mills came up with a fine defensive display. The two referees Jim Crombie of Bowmanville and Eddie Hodgson of New Toronto kept the rugged contest well in hand.
The Pontiacs had a couple of wide open chances to break into the scoring in the early first period as both Favor and Davidson broke into the clear. Eatough blocked Favor and Bob Bangay stole the puck off Davidson just as he was about to let the puck go. Ronnie Bell tipped the puck by Reading from Lewis to open the scoring. Less than a minute later Jack McDonald evened the count from Bowen and Richardson and five minutes later with Stephenson serving a minor, Ab Bowen put Orillia in the lead to end the scoring for the period.
In the second frame Ronnie bell notched his second goal from Stark and Rose. With only one second remaining defenceman Mark Mills picked up a loose puck and drove it into the net.
Eatough saved the day for the Clippers in the first minutes of the third frame as the Orillia squad poured into the attack and for three minutes The B. Bangay line failed to get the puck out of their zone.
The Clippers staged their familiar third period rally with bell once again setting up the play for the tying goal. He drilled a hard shot to Stephenson who rifled a bullet drive to put both clubs on even terms.
The roof fell in on the Orillia team at 15.11 when Floyd Pearsall in an attempt to clear the puck behind his net shot the rubber into the corner of the cage. Nick Bangay was given for the goal. With forty-five seconds remaining, Ronnie Bell completed a successful evening with his third and final tally from Stephenson and G. Lewis.
Polly Minton was the lone casualty of the rugged encounter. Polly was clipped in the face for ten stitches midway through the final frame and was forced out of action. BANTAM SCORE DOUBLE VICTORY OVER KESWICK WITH 34 GOAL BARRAGE

RON BELL PACES CLIPPERS TO 8-6 WIN OVER KINGSTON
Stouffville Clippers led by high scoring Ronnie Bell posted an 8-6 victory over the third place Kingston Goodyears on Saturday night in a see-saw battle that wasn’t decided until late in the final period. Some 3100 spectators were on hand for the contest and although the Clippers were able to dress only eleven players the local squad turned in a brilliant performance. The win strengthened the Clippers grip on the second rung and also enabled them to maintain their five point margin over Orillia who laced the first place Oshawa Truckmen 12-3.
The Goodyears jumped into the lead in less than three minutes as McKeown scored from McGregor but Hal Gibson tied the score midway through the frame unassisted. Kingston took the lead for the second time in the period as Ken Partis beat Eatough in the Stouffville cage from Gerow.
Ronnie Bell who has notched six goals in the last two games flew into action at 9.34 of the second session and added two more before the end of the contest. George Stark put the Clippers out in front for the first time in the game just twenty seconds following Bell’s tally but Kingston came back to deadlock the battle at 12.28. Ronnie Bell gave the local a 4-3 advantage late in the middle frame with his second goal of the night.
There were seven goals scored in the hectic third period with a penalty to Clint Tinkess of Kingston giving the Clippers a golden opportunity to clinch the contest. Kingston pulled up to even terms at the two minute mark of the third frame but Nick and Bob Bangay combined along with defenceman Mark Mills to keep the Clippers out front. For the third time Kingston rallied to even the score as Myke blinked the light from McGregor but for the fourth time the squad forged ahead as rookie Don Lewis tipped the rubber into the cage. At 13.40 Tinkess made it 6-6- but for the remainder of the period the roof fell in on the Kingston crew. A disastrous penalty and two goals by Stark and Bell spelled the difference. The eleven man squad turned in a terrific effort and are to be congratulated on their victory against such overwhelming odds. Bert Baker, Jack Watson and Gord Lewis were unable to play and Polly Minton although he made the trip did not dress as his fourteen stitch facial cut was not completely healed.

Three basketball records fell before the onslaught of Spartan scoring power on Friday afternoon of last week as the Seniors rolled to an easy 81-45 victory over Markham High. It would seem the only worry Coach Rehill could possibly have regarding his sharpshooting Spartans is the state of their academic standing. With a 50% average required, the teams report cards appear to be the major hurdle in its bid for the district championship. John Smitherson, Brian Wilkes, Mike Paul.

AURORA TRIMS CLIPPERS TO EXTEND SEMI-FINALS
For the first and last five minutes of Tuesday’s tilt, Stouffville played like champions. During the fifty minutes in between they looked terrible. From the drop of the puck, the Clippers surged into the offensive and had the Aurora homesters hanging on the ropes. Some fine stops by goaltender Harry Goodmakers and poor marksmanship kept Stouffville off the score sheet. At 11:30 of the first frame Aurora’s Brian Rice tipped Bob Breedon’s blueline drive into the Clipper cage and the Stouffville offensive ground to an agonizing halt. This opened the door for three more Aurora tallies before Stouffville’s Jim Hood broke the ice with a “fluke” counter that slipped past goalie Goodmaker’s glove. Charlie Leeming nullified this goal at 2:20 of the third period and Larry Garner notched Stouffville’s second and final marker with less than three minutes to go. Glenn Jackson, Rich Conlin, Grant Foreman. STICK-OF-THE-WEEK AWARDS

CLIPPERS WITHSTAND A LATE GAME RALLY TO EDGE LINDSAY 5-4
Stouffville Clippers turned in their finest home effort in several games on Tuesday night to knock off first-place Lindsay 5-4. The contest, played to a good crowd, was a fast hitting affair that taxed the accommodation of the penalty box on a number of occasions. Stouffville roared into a 5-goal lead in the first period and held the visitors scoreless for two complete frames. In the 3rd, Lindsay broke out for a rash of four goals but they could not notch the equalizer. Glenn Jackson, Pete Reesor, Neil Saunders, Bill Corner, Bob Mustard, Ross Brown. BANTAM COACH BILL LENNOX TALKS DOWN SLAP SHOT
In a recent Bantam All-Star game in the Stouffville arena, a local forward broke free from centre ice and with only the goaltender to beat, he unleashed a slap shot into the corner of the cage.
On his return to the bench instead of receiving a complimentary pat on the back from his coach, he faced a few words of critical comment. The Tribune later questioned coach Bill Lennox concerning his personal feelings on the slap shot and if it should be totally banned from all hockey. VERNON IS HAT TRICK ARTIST

Two weeks ago, Tuesday, January 7th, a tragedy occurred in the Stouffville Arena. The Stouffville Clippers, your Junior Hockey club blew a 4 to1 lead and were forced to settle for a tie with Cannington-Sutton. Last night, Tuesday, a tragedy again occurred. The Clippers defeated a Lindsay team which currently holds first place in the Junior ‘C’ circuit of which Stouffville is considered Junior ‘D’ calibre. Can both these be tragedies?

PREACHER ON SUNDAY — TEACHER ON MONDAY
REV Gooderham is equally at home whether standing in his church pulpit or in the arena’s players box.

The suspension order was handed down following the home game against Lindsay one night of last week. Coach Geo. Stark declined to comment on the matter for publication but outlined the chain of events in an “off the record” telephone conversation.

PENALTY SHOT SENDS GAME INTO OVERTIME, AURORA WINS 6-5
Back on Nov. 5th of last year, Aurora opened the Junior hockey schedule against the Clippers on Stouffville ice and to win the game by a 7-2 count. At that time, forward Roy Pugh of the “Tigers”, on the protected list of the Montreal Canadians looked no more impressive than his mates. On Tuesday night, he (No. 12) returned to the local rink and proved without doubt that he possesses the qualities of a future big league star. To say he was outstanding would describe his performance in under-rated terms. He figured in five of the teams six goals including a tying tally on a penalty shot with 25 seconds to go and the winner at 7:30 of the overtime session. Aurora edged the homesters 6-5. Bill Corner, Neil Saunders, Barry McLean, Glenn Jackson, Jim Hood. BANTAMS ABSORB FIRST LOSS TO MARKHAM 8-3

H.S. SRS ALL-ONTARIO VOLLEYBALL CHAMPS
Described by coach Rehill as a “fantastic” effort, the Stouffville Dist. High School Sr. boys volleyball team marched through to the All-Ontario title in a tournament held at Guelph on Saturday. They defeated Whitby 2 games to 1 to win the championship. Throughout the entire tourney they dropped only one game and that defeat 15-9 came in the first of the finals. They rallied to whip Whitby in the next two 15-4 and 15-11. In earlier contests Stouffville chalked up wins over Toronto 15-11, Belleville 15-13 and Owen Sound 15-2. The Belleville team was from the Ontario School for the deaf and their court signals were all completed through sign language. Laurie Buckland, Herbert Otto, Ron Castle, Jim Hill, Norm Mowder, John Honsberger, Ian Montgomery, Paul Grose. AJAX GIRLS PROVE TOO STRONG FOR STOUFFVILLE
Ajax girls, after downing Stouffville 9-1 a couple of weeks ago returned to town Friday night and practically repeated the effort. This time however they only managed a 7-1 victory. Lillian Cordell, Betty Ann Caruthers. HOLDEN NETS 4 IN BANTAM WIN
Derek Holden sizzled four pucks into the Markham net on Thursday night to lead his Bantam club to an 8-4 victory. He also collected two assists. Harold Crowder blinked the light twice. Wilkins and Thornhill counted singles. 5 GOALS IN OVERTIME GIVES STOUFFVILLE 7-2 VICTORY
Only after 60 minutes of regulation time had expired did the Stouffville Clippers catch fire and defeat Little Britain 7-2. Clippers notched five goals in the ten-minute overtime period. Chuck Doyle, Pete Reesor, Tom Benson, Ross Brown, Barry McLean, Greg Nugget, Wayne Hassell, Jim Hood. HENDERSON LEADS PEEWEES TO WIN
Stouffville’s minor hockey All-Star teams scored two victories in three games on Thursday night. One of their wins chalked up against Pickering when the Peewees downed them 9-4. Gordie Henderson was the winners main goalscoring driver with two tallies and a pair assists. Mike Wilkins and Brian Norton also fired two with singles by Bobby Bangay, Frank Hill and Allan Corner. MIDGETS THUMP BAY RIDGES 7-3
Robt. Slack fired two goals and Dave Ferguson picked up three assists as Stouffville Midgets thumped Bay Ridges 7-3 on Friday night. Single tallies came from the sticks of Bruce Mehaffey, Eric Hamilton, Blair Wagg and Ted Todd, Wallace Pugh, Peter Turner. Mehaffey and Hamilton collected a point apiece in the assist department. WITH THE “CLIPPERS” — KEN AIDA
Ken Aida, in a position that stops him from scoring goals, is perhaps the most enthusiastic and capable defenceman the Stouffville Clippers have had for some time. The stocky 18-year-old resides in Stouffville and is presently involved in taking subjects in grades 12 and 13 at Stouffville District High School. Although only 5’8”. Ken tips the scales at 160 pounds most of it solid and that in itself explains why Ken does such a good job defensively. This is Ken’s second year with the Clippers and as far as continuing his hockey career- he feels that he might try for a scholarship in the United States. Other than that he claims, “I really don’t know”. MIDGETS EDGED 4-3
Ajax midgets rallied three times in the final period to edge Stouffville 4-3 on Thursday night. With five minutes left in the contest the homesters put on a sustained drive but could not notch the equalizer. David Glover scored two for the local squad. Blair Wagg counted one. Stouffville ran into five penalties in the game including a 10 minute misconduct to Brian Boyd WITH THE “CLIPPERS” –ROSS BROWN
Ross Brown, speedy right-winger for the Stouffville Clippers, is a hockey player who knows how to set up goals. In the points race, Ross has 8 goals and 20 assists. He currently stands in third place in the points standing. The agile 160 pounder resides in Stouffville but works for Richmond Hill Labourites in Toronto. He is 18 years old and stands 5’ 10”. Ross has been with the Clippers for two years, but doesn’t think he will carry his hockey career beyond the Junior stage. Coach Harold Hodgson will have trouble filling that right wing slot with someone of Ross’ caliber. LADIES CURLING

Charles Doyle, better known to local hockey fans as “Chuck”, mans the fort for Stouffville and does it very well. The capable goalie is only 19 years old, lives in Thornhill and attends Langstaff High School. He chose the goaltending position because he felt he wasn’t fast enough to skate on a line and he enjoys catching pucks. Chuck stands 5’ 10” and weighs 186 pounds. Besides hockey be takes part in golf, bowling and football. He was sub goalie for the Clippers last year. Upon graduation from high school, Chuck would like to get into the air force or study IBM. Regarding hockey he feels the only way he’ll move up in the ranks is if he is given a break. Chuck has played in every Clipper game this season and has a goals-against average of just over 300 in 15 games. HOLDEN SCORES 10 GOALS
Derek “Jody” Holden went on a goalscoring rampage last Thursday night and before he was finished he had collected a total of 14 points.

“Peace on Earth: Good Will to Men”, a popular Christmas saying was all but forgotten Tuesday night at the arena when the league-leading Bobcaygeon “Ti-Cats” handed the Stouffville Clippers an 8-5 setback. Referee Jim McEriain assessed 78 minutes in penalties including two 10-minute misconducts and two 5-minute penalties for fighting. Chuck Doyle, Ross Brown, Rod Kelson, Tom Benson, Wayne Hassell, Glen Hooper, Jim Hood. WITH THE CLIPPERS — WAYNE KEELER
Wayne Keeler, able-bodied defenceman for the Clippers, has one of the hardest slap-shots in the league. The 17 year old lad is playing his second season with the club and with each game his shot seems to park more power. Keeler stands 5’9” and weighs 180 pounds. He is presently employed in Ballantrae on a mink farm. “Other than tennis,” he said. “I enjoy every sport but I favour swimming, football and baseball.” Wayne said he likes playing in this league and is not too anxious to move up in the ranks.

He attends the high school there, presently in grade 13. The stocky lad is 5’ 8” in height and weighs 160 pounds. This is Rods’ second year with the Clippers. He played Juvenile with Richmond Hill before breaking into the junior loop. Rod may he found on the golf course in the summer time and the winter, too, if he could arrange it. He said that to break into Junior ‘A’ or ‘B’ a player should he signed by the time he is 16 or 17. Rod feels he has missed the opportunity but if the chance came he would take it. Rod has high hopes of becoming a mechanical engineer, and will have no trouble at all if his ambition in school is as high as it is on the ice. MINOR HOCKEY LEAGUE RESULTS

WHAT MINOR HOCKEY MEANS TO ME
By Peter Sanderson
“Minor Hockey Week,” a week looked forward to by every youngster who plays hockey, is here once again. Every year Canada’s National Sport is displayed to the fullest extent by these youngsters to their parents. Playing without the pressure of having to win, I for one, enjoy this game, which teaches the skills and fundamentals of hockey as well as the rules of the game. In addition, it teaches me good sportsmanship, to obey the regulations laid down by the Ontario Minor Hockey Association, to lose gracefully and to compliment good play when compliments are in order. It teaches me teamwork and gives me the companionship of my fellow players. It gives me an opportunity to use my leisure time in a worthwhile way, a way in which both my body and mind benefit. Perhaps most of all it teaches me to appreciate the work that others, such as league officials, managers, referees, coaches, sponsors and the Lions Club are doing to keep this hockey organization going.

Robin’s main sport interest is hockey and he had to think far a moment before choosing gymnastics and baseball as out of season pastime. Brother of Jim Hood, the pair have combined their talents on numerous occasions to chalk up goals for the Clippers. Robin’s future is still undecided but judging by the stamina he shows on the ice, he’ll have no trouble in the business world. HIGH SCORING FORWARD LINE

About 12 years ago, a youthful blonde girl probably wobbled through her first figure eight glancing hopefully at her figure skating teacher, Christine Kennedy. The pretty young girl about eight years old, probably did quite a bit of day dreaming too. She likely saw herself gracefully skimming across the ice surface in full flight, executing double flips, front and back spirals, axels and other complicated tricks that are involved in being a professional. That girl, who took her first skating lesson at the Stouffville arena, was Miss Jean Winterstein. She wanted to be good. Debbie Castle CLIPPERS BLANK UXBRIDGE 12-0 IN PLAYOFF OPENER
Uxbridge “Chicks” came to Stouffville Tuesday night, got as far as the arena and ran into a thirteen man brick wall.

Chuck Doyle, Rod Kelson, Barry McLean, Greg Dunnett, Pete Reesor, Bob Mustard, Neil Saunders, Ken Aida, Robin Hood, Jim Hood, Ross Brown, Ted Redshaw. WITH THE CLIPPERS — PETE REESOR

Before joining the ranks of Stouffville, he played hockey for Unionville, and has seen two months of Junior ‘B’ action with Markham. His other interests include skiing and baseball. He also partakes in the art of billiards. Pete has no ambitions to further his hockey career although he will play after he reaches the age limit in the Clippers.

Ted Redshaw, seventeen year old defenceman, hasn’t seen as much action as the majority of the players this year. However, his defensive abilities are not to blame. The Claremont resident has played about fifteen games during the season and although he has only managed two points, Ted has sent a number of opposing players home with painful remembrances of his solid body-checks. Standing 5’9”, Ted overcomes his height with his 170 lbs. Besides the Clippers, Ted also plays hockey every Friday night in the Community League with Ringwood. Before that, he played midget hockey for Stouffville. Ted is in grade 9 at Dunbarton Technical School. Other interests include basketball, baseball and wrestling. His plans for the future are to graduate from school and become a machinist. HOUSE LEAGUE RESULTS

It takes more than a mere cut on the forehead to keep Stouffville goaltender Chuck Doyle out of service. In a pre-game warmup Tuesday night at the Arena, Chuck was cut over the right eye. A gash that required fifteen stitches to close. With the semi-final playoff series tied at two games apiece, coach Harold Hodgson looked extremely concerned as he assisted Doyle oft the ice for repairs. Sub-goalie Bob Wagg was dressed and after a 20-minutes delay, Stouffville and Uxbridge were ready to start their fifth game of the series.

H.S. SENIORS EDGED BY BROCK IN FINAL
Defeat Sutton In First Round
Stouffville District High School, after trouncing Sutton 68-41 Saturday afternoon in the GBSSA tournament in Uxbridge, lost their final game and the championship to Brock District by a heartbreaking two points. Jim Hill, Laurie Buckland, Paul Grose, Herb Otto, Ian Montgomery. WITH THE CLIPPERS — DON PENNY
Don Penny, 20, a frontline performer with the Stouffville Clippers, is in his last season of Junior hockey. He resides at RR 1 Markham. A likable lad, he possesses a good deal of determination and has attended game and practices faithfully. Although not always in the lineup. He packs a hard shot and can play at either left or right wing. CLIPPERS BOW OUT TO BOBCAYGEON TI-CATS IN FOUR STRAIGHT GAMES
Reesor Fires Four Goals
Pete Reesor went on a goal scoring spree Tuesday night at the arena, but when the game had ended his efforts were all in vain. The Stouffville Clippers lost the game 7-5 and lost the final playoff series 4-0. Reesor’s four goals enabled the Clippers to come from behind three times to tie the Bobcaygeon Ti-Cats. However, two late goals in the final frame by the visitors wrapped up the scoring and the hockey season for Stouffville. Gary Gall, Neil Saunders, Ross Brown, Jim Hood, Chuck Doyle, Barry McLean, Rod Kelson, Harold Hodgson, Pete Turner. WITH THE CLIPPERS — BOB WAGG
Bob Wagg, sub-goaltender for the Clippers, has probably the most nerve-racking job in the league. He sits in the stands during all the games waiting to dress for action should regular goalie Chuck Doyle be put out of action. Although he has only seen action in three games this season, Bob has always been ready when called on. The stocky youth was born in Stouffville and has lived here all his life. He is 20 years old. Standing 5’ 8” and weighing 160 pounds, bob has always been interested in playing goal. He played in all the ranks from Bantam through to Junior. Bob chose goalie because as he explained it, “I wasn’t a good enough skater to play out and there’s a real challenge in playing nets.” His other interests range from golf, diving and gymnastics to model railroading. Bob is presently employed with the Stouffville Tribune as a compositor. He has no future plans in hockey but would like to remain in the newspaper business. CURLING

Mr. Jas. Thomas, Editor
Dear Mr. Thomas
With the 1964-65 hockey season now completed, I think it very appropriate to recognize those who worked so faithfully to make the minor hockey programme a success. As is always the case there are so many contributors who unless mentioned through some media such as the newspaper, would go unnoticed because of their behind-the-scene duties. These are the ones who make such a programme possible. Although mentioned in an earlier editorial, I would again like to thank the Stouffville businessmen who outfitted the entire house league with new sweaters. These sweaters have all been collected and taken to Aida cleaners where the management has agreed to clean and store them for the summer, a job duplicated for many years now. The trophies awarded to the winning team in their respective house league have already been brought up to date with the names of the newly-formed winners being inscribed on them — compliments of Wagg’s Jewellery store and returned to the trophy cabinet at the arena. Weldon Shoes and Men’s Wear have donated sufficient crests that every boy associated with minor hockey this year will receive one. The Lions Club entertains the entire minor hockey organization to an informal banquet each year and presents each member of the winning team with a crest and picture of their team. The arena manager, Mr. T. Rennie and his staff have been most cooperative and I speak for the executive when I say it has been a pleasure working with them. Last but not least, the referees (who are 50% wrong before they start), the managers and coaches who give of their time free to provide the boys of Stouffville and district with a season of fun and hockey.
To all the aforementioned as well as any I may have missed, I say THANK YOU.
Yours respectfully

Two men were chatting over the back fence one day when one casually asked what was being done in Stouffville to promote tennis. Realizing the answer was a simple ‘nothing’, the two men decided to do something about it.
Anyone who drove by the crumbling and rundown tennis courts on Saturday got an eyeful of what can be done when a couple of men follow through with idle chatter. Anyone who drives by this Saturday should see the finished product and how it is being used. The two men were Jim Rehill and Harry Dykstra and since that first discussion over the back fence these two sports-minded figures have done wonders to boost the game of tennis in Stouffville.

Known for pulling bail games out of the fire, the Stouffville girls did just that Thursday night at the park. But they almost waited too long to make their move. It was the bottom half of the last inning with the score tied 10-10 when Stouffville turned on their offensive. The opponents, held the upper hand through out the game but failed to break the tie in the top half of the seventh. This left the field wide open for the local gals who immediately scored two runs on singles by Coleen Hisey and Anne Brown, ending the game at 12-10. Nancy Hopkins. (

UNBELIEVABLE END TO OPENER, CLIPPERS SHADE BOBCAYGEON
Ken Aida Is Star
Tuesday night’s hockey contest, the first of the season at the arena, had come down to the wire with both clubs deadlocked at four goals apiece. There were three minutes remaining in the game. It happened something like this. Bobcaygeon were pressing deep in the Stouffville end looking for that big tie-breaking goal. Everyone was scrambling around in front of the net. Sticks were swinging at anything that resembled a puck. Someone in the melee connected with a shot that missed the corner of the net by centimeters. An excited goal judge flashed the red light and both teams paused, all except two players. Pete Reesor picked up the loose puck and fed a long leader pass to Ken Aida who was streaking up the ice. Aida went right in, made no mistake about what he was doing and rifled a blast into the top right hand corner of the Bobcaygeon net. Goalie Joe Junkin had no chance on the drive. Aida’s goal broke the deadlock and gave the Clippers that one big break which eventually ended in victory for the homesters.

It wouldn’t be hard to spot Stouffville’s best football player on the field. Just look for the guy who mows down the opposition like grass. Or the guy that the other team bounces off. Or the guy who rushes 198 yards in one game. He’s Pat Smith, sixteen year old candidate for the big leagues someday. Pat who is in grade eleven at Stouffville District High School has been playing organized football since he started at the school three years ago. Since then he has slowly worked his way up the ranks and now stands as the best player on the team. MEN’S BOWLING LEAGUE

Skiing is a wonderful invigorating sport but there’s more to it than meets the eye as pretty grade 10 student, Pat Hall discovered last Saturday. Pat was part of the high school ski club’s excursion to Talisman ski resort and although this incident caused her a minor setback, she rose to the challenge and conquered the majority of the hills. The daylong outing provided some twenty-five students and teachers with excellent skiing under perfect weather conditions. Another trip is planned in about three weeks.

Bob Bangay, 9th Line South, has always been a little better hockey player than Peewee House League requires, but he won’t tell you that. For the past two years ho has been a key member of the All-Star Peewee group, but he won’t say that his sharp shooting, fast skating and clever play are the reasons for it. A modest 11 year old, Bob just plays hockey to the best of his ability but doesn’t feel that he is anything special. However, his record speaks differently. REMEMBER WHEN?
This photo will stir a few memories. It was hack in the mid-40’s when Junior hockey attracted the crowds to the old natural ice rink in the park. It was the year that defenceman Don Campbell of Stouffville was voted the team’s most valuable player. The presentation was made by Mr. A. V. Nolan, then reeve of the town.

In the long jump, Pat Smith set a new mark of 19 feet 31/2 inches smashing a 1960 record 18’ 6”. Dave Ferguson pushed the shot 42 feet 3 inches, almost three feet farther than Mike Cadieux, who set the old mark in 1961. A new event for the intermediates, the mile, was run in 5 minutes 16 seconds by Cliff Bass and will take its place in the books as a new record. Derek Gresham’s speed in the junior 880 cut 107 seconds off the old mark set in 1959. He ran the distance in 2 minutes 13.5 seconds. Harold Crowder tied the high jump record at five feet.

Bill Caudill and Willie Hernandez would re-negotiate their contracts before they’d pitch 19 innings straight and do mound duty after midnight. Stouffville Stinger pitcher Liz Crittenden did the job for free and delivered a zero earned-run average to boot. If that isn’t enough to put all those major league salaries to shame, there’s teammate Sheila Fockler the female version of the Blue Jays multimillion dollar man in the bullpen.

Some ten members of the Stouffville Hunt Club left for the north country on Monday, where they will construct a new camp near Ardbeg, in preparation for next fall’s hunt. The party is headed by William Reesor.
The fish at Hall’s Lake, Haliburton, had better watch their weakness for worms this week, since a party of Stouffville ladies are on their track. Misses Edna and Violet Hoover, Luella Holden, Gertrude Todd, Mrs Florence Miller, Mrs K.D. Wooburn, Mrs William Griffiths and a lady friend from Toronto, have taken the Stiver cottage on the beach for a week. The jolly group promised themselves a rollicking time. Mrs. Griffiths, we understand, is named in charge of affairs in the culinary department of the camp.
In complimenting the talent which contributed such a good program for the July 1 celebration this paper inadvertently omitted to mention the town orchestra which played for an hour while the large crowd assembled in the building. Their selections were especially appreciated when the time of starting the main event was so long delayed. The orchestra filled in the time in such a manner that the crowd did not become restless in the least. Recently we have been hearing numerous remarks about this musical body that would make them feel “puffed up” if repeated too often.

MARKHAM-GRIMSBY SERIES ALL TIED UP.
After defeating Grimsby Peach Buds 7-5 at Maple Leaf Gardens last Friday night in the first game of the their best of five series for the Junior “C” title, Markham was nosed out in the orchard arena on Monday at 3-2 to leave et round tied.
In the second game at Grimsby on Monday both teams set a fast pace, with play inclined to be rough in the latter part. Penalties proved costly to Markham, the Buds scoring their winning counter with two Markham men in the penalty box.
Miller of the Buds drew a misconduct penalty for shooting the puck at Referee Happy Day in protest over a Grimsby penalty. The arena was packed to the rafters by fans from the entire district.
By mutual consent the third game of the series will be played at Grimsby Friday night, and the remaining games at Maple Leaf Gardens.

ENTHUSIASTIC BOWING MEETING ELECTS A.H. WILLIAMS TO HEAD THE 1940 CLUB
A large representative of local bowlers voted unanimously at the annual re-organization meeting on Friday night, to carry on the Stouffville Club which during last season had become a small and rather unenthusiastic body. The pros and cons of carrying on a successful club was thoroughly discussed and it was pointed out by several members that two of the main bones of contention with last years organization was that there was no competitive schedule set up to create interest and that those few who did form rinks were given no opportunity to alternate their position on these rinks and by doing so improve their game and their interest. A motion was finally brought in to place in the hands of the games committee the task of drawing up a schedule of games for local competition, to be played chiefly on Monday nights which is strictly men’s night, and that also players on the various rinks drawn must alternate in the positions of these rinks. Mr. F.L. Button and Mr. James Ratcliff acting as a membership committee have rounded up between thirty and forty members to form this year’s club. The following were the officers elected for the 1940 season: Hon. Pres. Blake Sanders; Pres., A.H. Williams, vice Pres., Ross Ratcliff; Sec-Treas., Thomas Rae; Grounds Committee, Messrs. M.E. Watts, Jason Ratcliff, Ira Aldred; Games Committee, Robert Johnson, M.E. Watts, and Fred Marshall; Representatives to the district annual meeting to be Messrs. Blake Sanders and Thomas Rae and to the annual Provincial meeting; F.L. Button. Fees for this year are to be $3.00.

DATE OF NORTH YORK PLOWING NOW NOV. 5
Big Plowing Event Will be Held in Ringwood
The annual plowing Match of the North York Branch of the Ontario Plowmen’s Association will be held will be held later in the season this year. Instead of the usual October date the match will be held on Tuesday, Nov., on the farm of Mr. Edward Logan, Ringwood.
Canvassers will be asking for your donation shortly for this popular event, so that prize lists with acknowledgement of the donations may be issued as soon as possible.
Suitable lands are available on the Logan farm and adjacent properties on the 8th concession of Whitchurch just north of Ringwood. The annual supper and distribution of of prizes will be held in Stouffville in the evening as usual.
Horse plowmen who figure they are pretty good in sod will be looking forward to their branch match to take a fling at the $10.00 prize Salada Tea is offering for the best plowed land in sod, using horses.
Winners of the event in every branch in Ontario will be entitled to plow in the Salada special at the “International” where the prizes should attack plowmen from all over the Province. First two winners will be awarded gold and silver medals and an extensive trip in the Spring and the next twelve — cash prizes from $25.00 to $5.00. CHOOSE YOUR OWN HUNTING GROUND
Pheasant shooters from Toronto, and other places will find a new hunting ground this season (Oct. 25-26) since the Township of Whitchurch has made a game preserve specially stocked with additional birds to those already roaming the district. John Crawford, township clerk, is now offering interim receipts for licenses to be issued later, and to the wise ones we would suggest they step in early as the limit to be issued to outside hunters (anyone resident outside the township) is 200.
The Township of Markham, we are informed, has sold its total allotment of licenses which the township will issue for the coming shoot, so that Pickering and Whitchurch are the remaining areas about here for the hunters to roam over. This year is the first year for Whitchurch as a game preserve, and expectations are that hunters will find the game as plentiful as anywhere also.
Hunters have been more than well treated by the Department of Game and Fisheries this year by getting two open seasons for the shooting of partridge this fall. The seasons are each of two weeks duration, the first which is now in being from October 1st up to and including Thanksgiving Day, October 14th, while the last open period is from November 4th to November 16th, both dates inclusive. Several of the local hunters are expected to enjoy this sport including Messrs. E.A. Button and Sam Armstrong. The daily bag limit is set at five, with the total bag allowed for each hunter in the two periods of twenty-five birds. Partridge are reported to be quite plentiful in the woods and swamps this year and no doubt many of those game birds will fall victims of the barrage during the lawful open periods.

DARING EXPLOITS OF ROYAL AIR FORCE
Somewhere in England
Dear Folks:
Everything is hunky dory and we are getting along fine.
How are things with you? I suppose you are busy getting ready for old man winter. Gosh, it seems funny to think of the Exhibition being over and I haven’t seen the place. However there will come a day.
Don’t know how my mail get through, but service has got plenty of punk at this end due to London and so many railways being on the hum. There was a notice on the board yesterday that a ship carrying a part load of cigarettes was torpedoed and sunk two weeks ago. If mine were on it I hope they choke some shark.
As you no doubt have read, this country is now the front line. It’s funny but I just can’t get excited about it. I’ve seen some queer things this last week as of course everybody has.
About a week ago there was a big dogfight right overhead and there was a Messerschmidt fighter brought down a couple of miles away. It sure did come down too and caught fire about a thousand feet up. The Hurricane that nailed it followed it down and then went back up and smack into a formation of nine big Heinkel bombers coming down out of the clouds to say hello to us. Two of them smartly cut loose and nearly cut him in two but the pilot bailed out and came straight for us around 4,000 feet up I figured. Just after he bailed out two more Hurricanes nailed one of the Heinekens and the crew bailed out. It looked like popcorn coming out of a popper. The guys in the chutes were pretty well mixed and when the first one got down to around 600 feet some anxious guard let a Bren clip at him. He landed to 100 yards away, (We just put up the blackouts and turned the light on. I couldn’t see before) and as soon as he hit the ground he started to swear. He happened to be the Hurricane pilot and had two holes through his left arm. He as all for going and finding out who was behind that Bren gun, and shoving it down his throat. he was an Australian and let me tell you those boys can really cuss. We didn’t see any of the Jerrys because they landed about half a mile away.
Saturday morning I was heading for Southampton and was near a little town called Alton guzzling blackberries when trouble started about five miles away. There were 21 Jerry bombers without escort coming so high you could barely see them. After about 15 minutes they made a huge circle and were back where I could see them again. A Spitfire came down in s screaming dive, shot out and leveled right in front of nine Jerrys. he flew right into them and hit the third. I never saw anything like it. He took the left wing right off the bomber and they both came down in a wreck. I found out afterwards it was a Polish squadron and they figured he’d been shot in the lung or some place and decided to take a few with him.
Well I guess I’ll close for now. Give my love to everybody.
George Abell
P.S. I’m sending a ring I started to make today out of a piece of the block of a Heinkel E9-twin engine bomber that was downed a few miles away. It’s very light. A piece 8” x8” x1” only weighs 3 ounces.

FRED TIMBERS WAS THE CHOICE OF THE “OLD OBSERVER”
Perhaps few people know that Fred Timbers, beside winning the All-American Plowing championship was chosen by lCary Lettell, National Broadcaster for the Canadian Broadcasting Corp., who sign off under the name, “Old Observer”, as an outstanding sports figure for 1940. The Associated Press takes a nationwide pol every year to try and answer the question, “What is the outstanding sports figure, event or team for that particular year.
“My first choice,” said Mr. Lettell, “and this will surprise you, is a Canadian farmer who won the championship of All America, Oct. 29th, 1940 at Davenport, Iowa, against such stern plowing competition as the State champions and runner-ups of various States, and who has not received one iota of credit due him in the press in his own country. Stop a moment and think, folks. I knew I’d stump you. Well, I refer to Fred Timbers of Stouffville, who won the All-American plowing championship — that’s tough competition in any sport — and really useful sport too.”

BOWLERS EXECUTIVE TO STAND FOR 1941
A fair attendance of local bowlers turned out for the annual reorganization meeting on Thursday evening, and the same list of officers carried last year were unanimously returned for another season
They are: Hon. pres., Blake Sanders; Pres. A.H. Williams; vice Pres. Ross Ratcliff; Sec’y-Treas., Thomas Rae; Grounds committee, Messrs. M.E. Watts, James Ratcliff, Ira Aldred; Games committee, Robert Johnston, M.E. Watts and Fred Marshall; Membership committee, F.L. Button, James Ratcliff.
It was decided to charge a fee of $4 this year, in an effort to clear the club of some of its financial burdens. Outsiders and beginners will pay $3.00. Despite the fact that a number of large repair bills cut into last year’s funds, the club showed a slight balance on the currant financial sheet, and it is hoped that with these expenses over, and an increase of $1.00 in the fee, better financial progress can be made.
George Sanders was engaged as caretaker at the annual salary of $150.

I am just writing a we lines to say Th. I received your box on May 2, and was very thankful to get it because you know what it was like when you were over here yourself The Canadian smokes sure taste good when we get them and a letter shows someone is thinking of us. I often See Gordon Lehman. He is just over the next street from me. You can tell his mother that he is alright and feeling fine. He came across on the same boat as I did. We had a nice trip over, three weeks in Halifax and on the boat twelve days. What a trip but we got here safe. We were sick for five days and what a feeling. But we all have to look for some of that kind of thing in the army. It isn’t all sunshine is it. We have a great time to understand the money but at last we are getting on to it and it doesn’t seem to go very far. Not like the dollar at home. The weather is very cold over here and raining. Today is the first day of sunshine and warm.
So keep smiling,

ALLEN HARPER AND EDWARD BARLOW MEMBERS OF HEROIC GARRISON
At least two Whitchurch boys are known to have been with the Canadian Forces at Hong Kong during their heroic stand. Pte. Allen Harper volunteered in July of this year, and following a short period at Camp Borden he was shifted to the west coast.
From there he wrote to his home near Stouffville his final letter being received while at sea. Only when official listing of Canadians at Hong Kong was published last week were the parents certain that their boy was in the Far East was theatre.
The Harpers have their three sons in the service. Allen with the Royal Rifles, overseas, Donald with the R.C.A.F. at Fingal and Kenneth who will go into training next week at an army trade school.
Dear Comrades,
Things are quiet over here an odd Jerry but we never see them. They can’t get very far past the coast now as we have too many Spits and Hurricanes. I’m well and hope you are all the same. I received to box you sent me and I was sure glad to get it. I think that all the support the people give you is just fine. A lot os people don’t realize what a gift like that means to one that is so far from home. When I get them I can see Bert Lickorish feeding fishes, Shine Davis pressing, Doc. Ball saying, “yes, what else, have you a pain here?’ and A.V. Nolan sitting behind his desk, smoking a cigar and talking to George Smiley.
Well I guess i have ambled far enough for tonight. Will write again soon, and to one and all wish to say, “Merry Christmas and Happy New Year” from the bottom of my heart. Thanks fellows, see you soon .
Yours truly,
Spr. Gordon Lehman

Dear Mr. Lickorish,
Another parcel of cigarettes arrived from the Comfort Fund yesterday. Thanks very so much. I am in London for a few days embarkation leave. Haven’t the least idea where we are going but will get as much fun out of the trip as possible. I am the only Canadian in the group. Rather regret leaving some of the boys that I joined with but it seems that I’ll never learn to stop volunteering. My address will be the same for the present. Thank you once again.
I remain,
Cpl.. Murray Sinclair
Attached R.A.F
Dear Bert,
Just a few lines to thank you for the smokes I received. I have come to be quite dependent on them. A lot of smokes were sunk by enemy action according to our bulletin board, and I see one of my bundles from you was among them. That is the first that has been lost to my knowledge. Guess things are busy at home these days. Is the old vinegar works in war work now, I heard a rumour of it. It would give some more people employment. Must close now.

TWO LOCAL LADS WERE MEMBERS OF CANADA’S FAMOUS ROYAL REGIMENT
Fred castle and Bruce Lintner Privates in the Royal Regiment Reported Missing on Monday and Tuesday — Hardy Young Soldiers Fit For Commando Duty Were Chosen for the Attack — Stouffville Fourth Loss Since War Began
Pte. Fred Castle and Pte Bruce Lintner are both missing after the Dieppe raid on the French coast. This is according to the advises received by the parents of both soldiers this Monday and Tuesday. Fred Castle is the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. John Castle, and Bruce is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Lintner, east end families of Stouffville. Mr. Lintner before the war broke out was a village smithy, but is now engaged in war work at the Pickering plant. The missing boys were both born in Stouffville and lived here all their lives unit they enlisted.
The information received from Ottawa merely stated that both boys were missing, and that further information would be forthcoming in due course.
Fred Castle and Bruce Lintner enlisted together in the Royal Regiment shortly after the outbreak of war. They went overseas with their regiment two years ago last July, and from recent letters it was evident they were undergoing most intensive training. The last letter from Fred was received by his mother the other day and was dated July 28.
This is the second calamity to befall the Castle family, for last March their second son, William, was officially reported missing at sea, having gone down in the north Atlantic on a convoy to Britain when his vessel was sunk by enemy action around Christmas time, 1941.
So far the war has accounted for four sons of this town. Bill Castle was the first casualty, and second George Davis, son of Rev. and Mrs Douglas Davis, who was killed in England, and now the two boys reported missing are the third and fourth.
When sen by the press Mrs Lintner and Mrs. castle were in tears for the news was very fresh to them. Both are hoping for the best, and anxiously await the next news, telling them the fate of their sons. If they are prisoners of war, both mothers will be happy. They were known to be hardy soldiers fit for Commando duty.
“Fred was an expert with a gun, and I suppose they needed him”, said Mrs. castle, who brought out the two letters she had just received in the last mail, telling how hard they were training off the Dover coast. The boys had been together ever since they enlisted and appeared to arrange their holidays in England at the same time. The last one enabled them to visit relatives of Mrs. Castle at a place where Fred’s mother was born.

Fred said it was one of the happiest days of his life at time of writing since he has received his first parcel from home since he was a guest of Mr. Hitler.
A liberal supply of cigarettes, more than he had ever possessed in his life before as well as other good things from home. Fred reported that he had received ample clothing from the Canadian Red Cross, but appreciated “eats” from home.
regarding the shackling, he says that he is wearing Hitler’s bracelets nine hours a day, but there is a play of nine inches in the chain so he is not worried about the ordeal.

LOCAL HUNTERS FIND DEER WITH HORNS LOCKED, BATTLED TO DEATH
Few Clubs able to Bring Back Quota – 20 below at South River – 12 below at Zebra Siding
No storybook on wild animals would be complete without a yarn of a famous battle between two buck deer where the chargers got their horns lock , never to be set free and where the victor died with the vanquished. Well, Dr. S.S. Ball and a party of other Stouffville men, Jack Smits, Harry Ratcliff, Myron Anderson and Tommy Kerr came upon the remains of two such bucks while hunting in northern Haliburton. The professional man said that the big animals had died only a day before, and evidence about indicated a terrific battle had been fought.
The horns of the two contestants were so securely locked that the hunters could not release them, and had to cut off to bring back the evidence. It appeared that the pair must have come together with a terrific thud, and fought for hours. Finally the larger deer over 200, flopped its adversary over a big log with such force its back was broken. The pair rolled into a stream of water close at hand, and the other deer was dragged under and drowned.
It was the first deer hunting trip for Mr. Smits of the Stouffville Machine and Tool Works, and in addition to being a eye witness to what we have described he shot a deer. The party brought home two other deer in addition to the heads of the bucks.
Dr. Ball remained in the woods for a second week and aided by Col. Harold Brussels they brought down a big 200 pound buck and a large doe, which looked like top ranking success for eve professional hunters, Jim Bowes, their cook, is willing to put the good shooting down to his cooking.
Generally speaking, the hunting was good this year, but luck was very poor. According to Morley Symes there were deer tracks everywhere in the Hawk Lake region, but this keen eyed hunter only saw one deer. He shot it and the deer went head-long into the bushes, got up, blinked, and ran into the lake a mile away but was not recovered. There are a lot of good marksmen around Goodwood, but only two deer were shot by hunters from that place. The two Walters did the trick, Walter Byran and Walter Todd.
“Red” Forsyth hunting with a party from Uxbridge including his brother, Arthur dropped a dandy 175 pound buck. Four in the party brought home two deer.
Nels. Byer, Rob Snowball, Jack Pennock, and Elgin Wagg hunting with the Markham club at Foot’s Bay in the Parry Sound district met with poor success. Elgin shot a fawn, Jack shot a fox, but nobody hit a deer. Tracks of a bear were all around the cabin one morning, but old bruin was away before anyone knew he was about. This is the poorest hunting this party has seen for years.
The Sutton hunt club to which Frank Baker, Chris and Sam Armstrong were attached brought home eight deer. This was away below their quota and the first time in 30 years that the boys of the club did not bring back their number. The boys said the temperature dropped to 12 below zero.
The hunters who tramped the coldest country were the Whitchurch group, with which Chas. Atkinson, Reg. Stouffer, Wm. Greenbury, Wm. Armstrong and W. Pipher from town were attached. Don Ratcliff said it was 20 below around the camp at a place called Rye on the south river. Like the others they had lots of fun but did not bring back their quota.

ISSUE OF POOL-ROOM LICENSE REFERRED FOR LEGAL ADVISE
After a full open discussion whether to grant another pool-license in town or turn down the application of Mr. Delbert Holden, the town council on Thursday evening at their inaugural meeting decided to obtain legal opinion from M. F.L. Button.
Under the present bylaw of the town council is given power to set the rate for pool tables, but is not empowered to restrict the number that may operate. Mr. Holden made application under this by-law, and councillor Nolan said he felt we should honour the by-law or at least get legal opinion as to whether we were within our rights in refusing the license to Mr. Holden.
Councillor Nolan also gave notice that he would introduce a bylaw at the next regular meeting which would give council power to govern the number of licenses and the number of tables as well.
Reeve Weldon said he was apposed to opening any more pool rooms in town, but Councillor Brillinger and councillor Hugh Boyd said they would be willing to allow Mr. Holden his license if he would extend the accommodation of the Village Inn to serving meals again.
Mr. Holden had intimated that he had no intention of operating a pool room. He wanted a single table for the convenience of his over-night guests and for other patrons of the Inn.No charge is made and only what is called Boston pool goes on.
The license fee is $25 for the first table. LICENSE GRANTED
The municipal council met in special session Tuesday evening and passed a resolution instructing the clerk to grant a pool table license to Delbert Holden, for year 1944. Councillor Nolan moved the resolution which was seconded by Councilor Brillinger and carried unanimously.
The resolution was moved after Reeve Weldon explained his interview with the solicitor, Mr. F.L. Button, as to the duty of the council under the existing bylaw governing pool tables.

F.L.Button
President Red Cross
Dear Sir,
Today your parcel arrived here at our squadron and I am writing now while I have time to thank you and all the people who are organized to help us over here. At times my work seems far from the front line, but many times we are reminded of it.
We are burying two of our men tomorrow and two men are very grateful for their umbrellas. It was a midair crash last night. I have seen our ranks thinned in various ways. For two years I have had some seventh wonder escapes. I had a letter from my brother Jim yesterday and he is in good health. Since I have been away from home I have learned to appreciate it more and more, and the sooner I come back the happier I’ll be. I think we can celebrate Christmas and new Year’s with more hope for the coming year, when I am sure victory will be ours.
To study England as I have is a pleasure and a privilege and I have tried to see as much as I could, historic places, Local living habits, etc. Here in this district they have wooden houses, built like our clap-board ones. I would like to describe the country about here but secrecy forbids. Next year I hope to be home again. To you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

FINE YOUNG MAN GIVES LIFE WITH R.A.F. IN BURMA
A Specially Trained Pilot in third Tactical Airforce R.A.F
The sad advise from Ottawa reached the home of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Fairles, last Thursday announcing that their son Warrant Officer Leland Fairles,as killed in action on the Burma front with the R.A.F. The telegram stated met death on Sept. 24. 1944.
The news has shocked a wide circle of friends, who knew the airman and his worth as a young man in the community, as well as being a crushing blow to his parents.
Leland enlisted three years ago and after training with the R.C.A.F. at Goodrich and Camp Borden went to England two years ago last August. He flew Typhoons in Scotland and fought over the Channel, before going to India by way of the Mediterranean. He landed in Bombay and since that time saw heavy action. It was learned through a friend that Leland flew next the command plane. He had been in combat fighting since March, and was especially trained jungle pilot in the 3rd Tactical airforce.
Before enlisting Leland taught school one year at Mongolia following his graduation from Stouffville High School and Toronto Normal School. His background made him a good observer and his descriptive letters fro both Scotland and from India will be long cherished by the bereaved parents and two sisters. Leland understood farming and never failed to enquire about progress on the home acres from his jungle home in India.
His descriptive letters and souvenirs from the other side of the world reveal his keen and ready ability to understand things, and his human interest was never lacking.
The Tribune has been promised the use of one of his letters with a selection of poetry recently received by his mother, and this we hope to print for the benefit of the many friends and old associates.
A close companion of Leland Fairles, a young flier from Ottawa, was killed to months ago, recent letters from India disclose.

JACK SANDERS HOME AFTER THREE AND A HALF YEARS OVERSEAS
Jack Sanders,son of Mr. and Mrs. Blake Sanders of Stouffville, arrived at his home here last week after serving overseas for thirty-nine months.
Jack was with the airforce supporting the famous 8th army, throughout the African campaign, and then in Italy. just prior to returning home he spent a month in England where he met up with “Louie” Morden and Sam Anderson two other local lads serving in the European theatre.

SENIOR HARDBALLERS CONTINUE SLUMP, LOSE TO NEWMARKET
Only three players on the Stouffville ball club were in any kind of form for the game against newmarket on Friday evening when the North York boys rattles out nineteen runs against home team ten.
Lorne Schell on the mound, brother Ken behind the plate and Lou Raxtin on the third sack played heads up ball all the way, but the balance of the team could do little that was right, and the continued series of errors brought more groans than cheers from the big crowd that had gathered to watch this final scheduled game of the season.
Only seven solid hits were registered against the arm of Lorne Schell, and these were well spread, and should have kept the score down to at least half of the final total, had it not been for the multitude of muffs in the field.
At the present time, Stouffville hopes of gaining a play-off berth for the senior squad are pretty remote. Prior to the last two disastrous contests with Milliken and Newmarket, the team was tied for fourth place with Richmond Hill. A game which was rained out with Milliken can do little to effect the local chances. Markham rests in the cellar with only one win.
Junior Near Top
However the bantam entry are doing better than their big brothers and are running neck to neck with Richmond Hill for top position of their group, with Aurora and Milliken following up in that order. Markham juniors are scheduled to play here this evening (Wednesday) to finish up the schedule.

SR. HARDBALL TEAM WIND UP SCHEDULE BY DEFEATING LEAGUE -LEADERS, MILLIKEN
Stouffville senior hardball team batted their way back into the limelight on Friday night when they defeated the league-leading Milliken team by the score of 7-6. The game was called in the sixth innings on account of darkness.
Milliken held a two-run lead for the first three innings, and only the stellar mound performance of Lorne Schell kept them from adding to their total, as repeated muffs, by the local in field allowed the bases to be loaded on two occasions.
However, in the fourth innings, the Stouffville lads got their eye on the slants of the Milliken pitcher and drew up on even terms collecting three hit combined with several errors by Milliken infield. The home team continued their march in the fifth frame, when they swung heavy and often to drive i five runs for a commanding lead. It was during this innings that Miller, Stouffville’s first sacker, slammed out probably the longest hit of the game, a 250 foot poke down near the rink.
Milliken appeared really roused after this barrage and were able to push over four more runs in their half of the innings to come within one run of tying the count once more. In the sixth innings Milliken got a hit and Stouffville balled up an easy infield out to give the visitors the break which allowed two runs to cross the plate to make the score 8-7. Just at this juncture the umpires agreed that darkness prevented further play, and the game was called.
One of the largest crowds of the season was on hand for the game, and were thoroughly entertained. The boys ere duly credited with putting up a good fight even though the win meant little to their play-off chances.
Fishing Near Georgian Bay
On a fishing trip in Muskogee at Chapping Lake about twenty men from Stouffville and district were reported making a real haul. in the party have been Messrs. Wm. Greenbury, Nelson Byer, Arthur Weldon, Atoll Feir, Willis Widdifield, Art Byer and others. The party walked in to camp seven miles from the railroad. Secret of good fishing, no doubt is the fact that motorists cannot get within a mlle of the lake with a car. Some of Some fishermen arrived home several days ago, others will be back today.

ALL-STAR BALL TEAM TO MEET COLLINGWOOD
An all-star midget team is being picked from North York Lions league and the first game of the O.B.A. elimination there on Thursday night, with a return game in Newmarket on Saturday or Monday. Newmarket ousted Milliken in the senior play-offs.
Stouffville’s pitchers Lorne Schell is being sought to join the mound staff for the team to meet Collingwood, but it is doubtful if he will be able to make the trip owing to farm duties. VETERANS COMFORT FUND STILL DOING A BIG JOB WELL
Of all the comforts received by our local boys and girls overseas, no effort has been more appreciated than that of the of the local Comfort Fund, which while under the name of the Stouffville Veterans, has been pretty well a one-man show, and that man has been Bert Lickorish, who incidentally is the secretary of the organization and its most active member.
The Fund was started in March of 1941, and the total cash amassed between that date, and July 31st of this year, was $2,141.67, which is quite an achievement. During that time parcels have been dispensed to 87 members of the armed forces. Over the above 1,622 parcels. While certain of this service, personnel were non-smokers and received parcel made u of chocolate bars and other comforts the number of cigarettes dispatched was 486,000.
Stouffville has had two prisoners of war since Dieppe and these boys were sent 52 parcels containing 47,800 smokes, which made a grand total 535,100.
The Comfort Fund was more recently augmented by the Soldiers’ Wives and Mother Club whose individual effort appears elsewhere in this issue.
We might also mention the Navy League Tag Days which have sent comforts to those of our boys on the high seas. The money raised in their behalf was $382.41, while the British War Victims’ Fund received $86 from the Fund.
Mr. Lickorish has received glowing letters in appreciation of his work to no end, many of which have been published in these columns from time to time.
Very few of the Comfort Fund parcels were lost enroute and all in all it has been a grand piece of work to no end, many of which have been published in these columns from time to time.

ALLEN HARPER LANDED AT YOKOHAMA
The first letter to reach Mr. and Mrs. Ross Harper, from their Allen a war prisoner since Hong Kong of any recent writing arrived here this week, dated September 9, 1945 and written from Yokohama, japan. He described his entry into that big fanfare. There was a band, and the lads who endured the Jap prison for so long were showered with chocolate bars, cigarettes, and almost anything, they wanted.
Other letters from Allen Harper last week were a tear old.
“Pt was lovely to sleep again in a nice soft bed, to eat real food,” writes Allen, who said he was in fair health. He was undergoing an army medical examination, the outcome of which might change his next move. However, he is aboard the U.S. hospital ship, Marigold, which may be board on the 4,000 mile voyage to America. Naturally the Harper and all their friends earnestly, hope this is a case.

STOUFFVILLE HAS EDGE IN PLAY BUT UXBRIDGE TAKES GAME
Despite the fact that Stouffville lost their opening game on home ice 5 to 3, the team gave a most credible account of itself before the large crowd gathered, and were able to bottle the northerners up continually, but failed to beat Knight in the nets.
The home team was down two starting the second period which was all Stouffville. Uxbridge, only having three shots on Raxlin during the entire twenty minutes. The continuous power play was rewarded as George Rumney rapped home the equalizers. Uxbridge took the lead again in the final stanza, Hockley making it 3-2 at half time. Seconds later Rumney completed the hat trick banging home his third goal of the night to tie the score once more. But the success was short-lived, as Uxbridge managed to beat Raxlin on a scramble around the net, and scored a fifth in the dying moments to really clinch the contest.
The game was cleanly played despite the soft ice, which greatly hampered any organized passing plays. only four minor penalties were handed out by referee max Reesor.
Stouffville are playing in Whitby tonight, and will be hosts to Port perry in the local arena on Friday evening.
Stouffville line-up — goal, Raxlin; def., Paisley, Burkholder, Lewis, Campbell; fist line, G. Romney. J. Romney, Sellers; second line, Lehman, Jewett, Petch.

LOCAL GIRLS BEAT ELGIN MILLS
Stouffville girls chalked up a 15-4 victory over Elgin Mills on Monday night in a scheduled Markham Twp. Ladies’ League contest. The Yonge Street squad group, champs for the past two seasons, have yet to win a game so far this season. Mary Cole was the big batsman for the winners clouting a four-base hit. Joyce Byer went the distance on the mound for the local squad.
Agincourt retained their edge atop the league by edging Peaches 9-8 under the lights. Newt Joynt’s crew have now lost only one game so far this season. Peaches and Stouffville are currently battling for number two position with Elgin Mills mired deep in league cellar. RED SOX EDGE PORT PERRY 4-3
Stouffville Red Sox strengthened their chances of catching a spot in the Tri-County League playoffs by edging Port Perry 4-3 on Thursday night of last week. Righthander Lorne Schell went the distance for the homesters and won his own ball game in the fifth inning when his safe hit drove Bud Lehman across with what proved to be the game winning run. Schell and McTaggart both gave up only four hits in a tight pitchers battle. The Red Sox counted one run an in the first inning when error on Ken Schell’s drive allowed Les Clarke to romp home. Hits by Ted Cadieux, Bob Hassard and Les Clarke and a walk to Murray McMullen accounted for two more runs in the second.
Port Perry came up with a three run rally in the third inning on hits by McTaggart and Owen and two Stouffville errors. They were held off the score sheet however for the remainder of the contest.
With two out in the fifth, Bud Lehman batting in the cleanup position hit safely and Lorne Schell brought him around with a single. Schell sent Port Perry down in order in the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth innings. Bob Hassard and Lorne Schell paced the Stouffville batting attack with two hits. BANTAMS BOW TO NEWMARKET 15-3
Stouffville Bantams bowed to Newmarket Optimists 15-3 in a scheduled seven inning game in the local park Tuesday night. The contest had to be called at the end of five innings due to darkness.
The visitors counted runs in every inning and ran the score into the double figures in the fifth when six players crossed the plate. McNab started on the mound for the winners with Robinson hurling in relief. Both hurlers had little trouble throughout the game with the starter giving up only two hits, a single to Gord Eckardt and relief mounds man throwing no- hit ball for two innings.
Stouffville counted their first run of the game in the second inning when McNab on the hill for the visitors ran into control trouble and walked right fielder Joe Haylow with the bases loaded to force a run in. An error on Bill White and single by Gord Eckardt and Jim Turner pushed two more runs across. The homesters were held off the score sheet for the remaining two innings.
Righthander Gord Eckardt ran into trouble in the second inning when Robertson clouted a triple into deep left field with two mates on base. He showed signs of tiring in his final turn on the mound when he issued three free passes, hit one batter and gave up three hits.
Coaches Murray Stewart and Harold Hodgson used only players of bantam age for the game and sat out such top performers as Barry Wilkes, Harry Barber and Lawrence Wideman.
On Saturday night of this week, Earls court Bantams of East Toronto will be the visitors in the Stouffville park. Righthander Harry Barber will go for Stouffville on the mound with either Sandy Smith or Gord Eckardt behind the plate.

SERIES GOES TO FIFTH GAME
Sunderland bounced back with a big win on their home diamond Monday night downing the Stouffville Red Sox 7-3 to force the Tri-County League finals into a fifth and deciding game. The title match will be played on the Sunderland diamond commencing at 5 o’clock on Monday evening.
Stouffville came up with their big win on Thurs. night, a tight 3-2 affair in eleven innings before three hundred shivering fans in the local park. Schell went the distance for the Red Sox allowing eight hits in the eleven frames, while Sunderland were rapped for just six hits by the Stouffville batsmen. Big gun at the plate for the Red Sox was Hassard who clouted three long balls, which would have surely gone over the fence for homers had they not been gathered in at the last minute by Sunderland fielders. With their backs practically on the fence in the eleventh inning, Porky Schell ,who had given a stellar performance on the mound, won his own game with a hit with two on and two out. At the time Stouffville led the fourth game of the series 3-0. in the fifth innings when Sunderland came through with a spray of hits to garner six runs and go on to take the game 7-3.

BRAMPTON SHOW SPEED TO CLIPPERS, WIN 6-4
A wild fight between Ronnie Bell of Stouffville and Fraser Scott of Brampton will be reported to the O.H.A., according to referee Jack Shopshire. The skirmish broke out in the dying seconds when forward Bud Lehman of Stouffville and Bob Cherry of Brampton clashed on the boards. Both players were given major penalties and sent to the showers. At the whistle, bell and Scott exchanged blows on the blueline and then resumed their feud of leaving the ice for the dressing rooms. As the game was officially over when the fight broke out, the referee can only report the incident to the O.H.A. and they would have to decide what penalties should be handed out.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas FATAL PENALTIES
The old adage, “You can’t score goals in the penalty box” was brought home to the Stouffville Clippers on Tuesday night. The ten penalties handed out to the local squad (including a major and two 10 minute misconduct) in the first and second period allowed visiting Georgetown Raiders to roll to an easy 5-1 victory. the numerous trips to the cooler for the Clippers was even more serious since Stouffville was trailing their rivals at this time. The lack of forward line strength fouled up their offensive attack and put more strain on their over-worked rearguards. The majority of the goals handed out were of the ridiculous type and a couple of players heaped more trouble on themselves by raging with officials, hence the extra ten minutes added. In the third period it was a different story. The Clippers were penalized only once and held 75% of the territorial play. However the damage was done. WILL BE MISSED
At the end of the month, Stouffville will lose one of its most ardent sport promotors. Constable W. S. “Casey” Hilliard. The local Police Chief has been one of the main organizers of sport here during the past couple of years and his service will certainly be missed.
Constable Hilliard has been a very enthusiastic worker with the young boys both in town and surrounding district. Following his arrival here he stepped in and too over one of the Peewee teams I the Lions League and lays winter he coached his team to the runner-up position in the group. Following the wind-up of the league he treated his team and other sports promotors to a turkey supper at his home.
Working through the Police Association, “Casey” put up two fine trophies for competition lays year. The Midget award went to Brooklin while the bantam silverware was retained by the local entry. This year he obtained no less than eight trophies, six for Peewees and one each for the Bantams and Midgets. This year he was appointed Manager of the club and arranged to have the to have the team provided with new uniforms through the generosity of Keyson Motors. Only recently he put the Bantam team through a vigorous practice when the coach Nick Bangay was unable to attend through sickness. Speaking on behalf of the young folks he worked with and trained, I know his efforts have been very much appreciated.

STARK LEADS TEAM TO WIN OVER GEORGETOWN
Geo. Stark, the shifty forward who at the completion of last year’s schedule decided to hang up his skates, has come out of retirement and although converted to a defence position he still hasn’t lost his knack for scoring goals. On Friday night, the dipsy-doodle artist paced the Clippers to a 6-4 win over Georgetown with a sparkling two-goal performance. The win was registered against the same club that dumped the homesters here on the previous Tuesday night by a 5-1 count.
In addition to Stark’s two goals, Chick Webster, Ronnie bell, Ken Crawford and Harold Hodgson notched singles. Stouffville held the Raiders off for thirty minutes of the contest before Georgetown struck for four fast goals. Goalie Norm Stunden turned in a fine game in the Clipper cage. CLIPPERS SINK OAKVILLE IN OVERTIME BEFORE 200 FRIGID FANS
In an actioned-packed overtime, Chick Webster, Stouffville veteran centre ace, took a pass from leftwinger Bud Lehman and rifled a shot into the Oakville net to give the Clippers their sixth victory of the season. With less than ten seconds remaining in the extra session, Ken Crawford dumped a loose puck into the empty Meteor net to sew up the contest for Stouffville by a score of 6-4.
Chick Webster was selected by his teammates to be Captain of the tam for this year. Runners-up Ronnie bell and Ken “Red” Crawford will act as Ass’t Captains.

Chick Webster continues to set the scoring pace for Stouffville notching both Clipper tallies. UXBRIDGE SNOWED UNDER 8-1 IN BANTAM OPENER
Stouffville’s bantams started the season off right by downing Uxbridge 8-1 in their first scheduled game. It was centreman Ron Stewart who paced the homesters with a three goal performance. Glenn Pennanen notched two tallies while singles came from Joe Haylow, Garry Baston and Don Eddington. Elson fired the lone goal for the visitors. MIDGETS BLANK UXBRIDGE ON REDSHAW’S GOALS
Wayne Redshaw, the spark plug of the Stouffville Midgets paced his team to a 2-0 victory over Uxbridge in the first game of the regular season. Redshaw potted both tallies for the homesters. Gord Eckardt and Murray Holden were given assists on the goals. Barry Wilkes guarded the twine for the winners and chalked up a shutout. In Coach Derek Chadwick’s absence, ex-Junior forward, Dave Hammersley handled the club.

CLIPPERS BLANKED 3-0 IN THIRD STRAIGHT HOME LOSS
Stouffville’s recent successes away from home is the only reason that has kept them near the top of the group, after Milton stepped into town and blanked them 3-0. Georgetown are presently leading the league with ten victories while the Clippers hold down second place with eight wins.
The game on Tuesday was one of Stouffville’s weakest efforts this season.
Don Forgie was the Clipper’s most potent performer. He was used plenty during the game, both on his regular shift and for killing off penalties.
The contest was not so rough as was the case in the last meeting between the two rivals. Hardest hit during the entire game was referee Eddie Hodgson who was sandwiched between two players and fell heavily to the ice on his back. Time was called but Hodgson agreed to carry on in spite of a badly bruised back. CLIPPERS UPSET BRAMPTON 5-3
The Clippers bounced back to upset their rivals. Chick Webster once again paced the Stouffville attack with two goals. Ronnie Bell, Ken Crawford and Jack Watson notched singles. REDSHAW’S HAT TRICK PACES MIDGETS TO 8-3 VICTORY
The Stouffville Midgets chalked up their second win by beating Unionville 8-3. The locals first string line centred by Norm Hendricks with Wayne Redshaw and Murray Holden on the wings notched six of the team’s eight goals. Redshaw boosted his season’s total to five tallies in two games by scoring the hat trick. Norm Hendricks scored two and Murray Holden one. Don Benson and Howard Malcolm potted the other goals for the homesters. MIDGETS BLANK UNIONVILLE IN SECOND GAME
Playing their second game against Unionville in 5 nights, the Stouffville Midgets racked up their third straight win of the young season as they shut out their rivals 5-0. It marked the second time that goalie Barry Wilkes has closed the door on the opposition.
The team’s two goal scorers. Wayne Redshaw and Norm Hendricks added to their totals, each potting a pair. Gord Eckhardt fired the other tally.

BANTAMS TIE PORT IN PLAYOFF OPENER
Stouffville Bantams playing of their finest games of the season, battled Port Perry to a 2-2 overtime tie in the first of the round robin group payoffs. On Friday night, Uxbridge, the other contender in the League will be the visitors here and on Thursday Feb. 9th. the homesters journey back to Uxbridge for the return tilt. Port Perry completes the series with a game here on Friday Feb.10th. The team with the most points will continue on into additional playoff competition.
Monday night’s draw was the first point Stouffville has taken from the strong Scugog crew this season. The club worked as a team and the heavier opposition was checked off their skates. Coach Bill Lennox used both Ron Mortimer and Roger Beazley in the nets.
Port Perry jumped into a 1-0 lead in the first period but Stouffville rallied to even the count in the early stages of the second frame. Roger Stover fired the equalizer, a bullet drive from the blueline that caught.

by Jim Thomas ONE TO FORGET
If you were one of the persons who cool and comfort of your summer cottage to attend Monday evenings ball game between Stouffville and Sunderland, we’re very sorry. What happened to the Red Sox shouldn’t have happened to any team. Those who have seen the homesters in previous games this season, know they are capable of a good brand of ball. For those who watched the local squad for a first time, believe us when we say “It was just a bad game.” It was one of those contests that the players couldn’t do anything right. Weak at the bat and in the field, Sunderland took advantage of their errors to pile up a commanding lead. The Stouffville management offered no excuses for the loss. “We got a
bad game out of our system,” said coach Bob Hassard, “It’s better that we play that way now than in an important playoff game.” “It’s the first home game we’ve lost this season.” commented Manager Ted Cadieux, “1 feel sure we can take Orillia in the playoff semi-finals.” Manager Cadleux was absent on holidays and did not see he contest. “The Sunderland pitcher had nothing on the ball,” said left fielder
Hal Gibson. “Glbbie” was one of the few players who didn’t make an error during the night. “It was coming in as big as a football,” said centrefielder Graham Frisby, “we just couldn’t hit it.” “We certainly can’t blame the pitcher for the loss ,”continued Coach Hassard, “we gave him no support.”
The Red Sox move into the group semifinals this week with the first game at Orillia on Wednesday (tonight) and the return contest here on Monday evening. After the holiday game many will not give the locals much chance of knocking off the hard-hitting Buckeyes, but we shouldn’t sell our club short. The trouble with many of us, we have become so accustomed to our team winning game after game its hard to take a setback. Even if Stouffville doesn’t capture the Tri-County honours its certainly no disgrace to the team or the town. While attending the game on Monday, I heard many critical and sarcastic
remarks coming from supposedly rabid supporters. Sure such a game is a disappointment but one should recall the 8-1 defeat chalked up against Orillia last week and the 11-3 setback registered against Sunderland on July 16th. Everybody makes errors and Stouffville’s, we hope, have come all in one game. It’s over and done now, let’s keep our fingers crossed for the important series that lies ahead. GIRLS BEAT AGINCOURT 21-2
The Stouffville-Peach’s girls team journeyed to Agincourt on Tuesday night and soundly trounced Newt Joynt’s squad 21-2. The game was called after seven innings. Audrey Murison went the distance on the mound for the winner and was never in trouble. She was solid support at the plate. Doreen Jarvis completed the battery, Marg Smith, a regular performer with the local squad, held down a short
stop position replacing the injured Gwenn Kennedy. The latter player, one of the best infielder in the group, pulled some ligaments in her ankle a couple of weeks ago and has been out of action since that time. Coach Dennis Pilkey hopes to have her back in the lineup for the playoffs. Joan Haynes played well at second base. FIVE COMPETING IN HORSESHOES

The winners now are meeting Delhi for the Championship. The homesters looked like mere ghosts of the club that knocked off Aurora for the North York title and then they defeated Newcastle in the first round of the Ontario playdowns. The locals commuted 3 errors in the field and their bats were strangely silent at the plate. Three of the five miscues came in the seventh inning when Caledonia counted four runs. Lynn Taylor started on the mound for Stouffville and pitched six and one-third innings. He was clipped for 8 hits, walked none and struck out 4. Harry Barber took over in relief and finished the game. In the two and two-thirds innings hurled by Barber, the local righthander allowed 3 hits, walked one and fanned 3 visiting batters. Herb Leeming went the distance for Caledonia. he gave up only 4 hits, walked 2 and struck out eleven batsmen.

Wayne Redshaw pounded the ball into right field in a pinch hitting roll, taking over from Geo. McKay in the sixth inning. Stouffville’s heavy guns Bob Stover. Gord Eckardt, Harry Barber, John Little and Ted Suzuki failed to connect. Geo. McMaster was Caledonia’s best batsman, hitting three singles. Bryan Griffith and Herb Leeming each pounded a pair. John Little, in spite of playing with an injured eye was Stouffville’s best defensive performer pulling off two one-handed shoestring catches in the early innings to rob visiting batters of almost sure hits.

MIDGET TEAM SCORE 9-0 SHUT-OUT OVER LAKE WILCOX
After a rather slow early season start, the Stouffville Midget team appears to be gathering power as the schedule progresses. They have now beaten Bradford, Sutton and Lake Wilcox and split the points with Newmarket. They suffered defeats at the hands of King City and Aurora. Lake Wilcox was the latest opposition to feel the line scoring power as the locals skated to a decisive 9-0 victory on Saturday night at Aurora as Glenn Pennanen and Norm Hendricks set the scoring pace in the last game, so linemate Rick Wedseltoft paced the attack. on Saturday with a three goal performance. Garry Taylor, one of the most improved marksmen on the club, equalled Wedseltoft’s efforts with a hat trick effort. Single tallies came from the sticks of Ron Stewart, Norm Hendricks and Glenn Pennanen. Coach Bill Lennox used both goaltenders, Roger Beazley and Ron Mortimer in nets and the two padded puck-stoppers shared the shut-out victory. Neither netminders were overworked at any time in the contest. Lake Wilcox will be here on Friday night of this week, the game to commence at 6.45. One week from Friday, Jan. 18th, King City will move into town for a return engagement. It would appear that they will be the team that Stouffville must defeat to enter the final round of the Ontario playoffs. R. HILL BEATS CLIPPERS 7-4, SCORES 4 GOALS IN 3 MINUTES
The Stouffville Clippers blew a three goal lead in the second period on Thursday night and allowed the Richmond Hill Diamonds to chalk up a decisive 7-4 victory. The Yonge Street crew currently occupying the cellar position in the group, suddenly caught fire midway through the second frame and fired four goals in less than four minutes. They added thee more in the last period while the homesters could notch only one. The Clippers, as a team, fell completely apart at the eight minute mark of the second session. Once the Richmond Hill machine started to roll it could not be stopped. Jack Smith and Dalt Hicks fired a pair with single tallies coming from the sticks of Norm Roberts, Wally Stothers and Paul Foy. Russ Forfar, Harold Hodgson, Jake Harman and Alex Wilkins potted the Stouffville markers. Harold Hodgson was the only player on the Clipper club who turned in a creditable performance. Playing more than forty minutes of the sixty minute contest, the hard-firing forward worked his heart out up to the final whistle. Coach Don McIntosh used him up front and on the rearguard to bolster his sagging defence. Hodgson netted one goal and picked up one assist. The Clippers moved into a lead at the seven minutes mark of the first period with Russ Forfar blinking the light on passes from Harold Hodgson and Frank Hendy. Eight minutes later, Alex Wilkins batted the disk into the twine, with Howard Forgie picking up an assist. At 3.21 of the second frame the Clippers added to their total as Jake Harmon’s weak shot rolled through goalie Ian Bellman’s pads into the corner. With the exception of one goal in the final frame, the remainder of
the contest was strictly Richmond Hills show. The visitors netted their initial tally at 8.06 on a shot by Wally Stothers and cashed in for three more in quick succession, two by Jack Smith and a single by Norm Roberts. The Diamonds made it 5-3 at 1.32 of the third period on a tally by Dalt Hicks. A bullet drive by Hal Hodgson at the thirteen minute mark momentarily closed the gap but less than minute three minutes later Hicks notched the winner. Paul Foy salted the game away with the visitors seventh goal. There were eleven penalties in the contest, seven to the Clippers and four to the Hill. Bud Lehman shared three of Stouffville’s portion handed out by referee Loring Doolittle. Frank Hendy of the Clippers and Jack Smith of Richmond Hill squared off in a boxing bee in the dying minutes of the game and were banished with majors. According to the holders of ring-side seats, Hendy connected with a Marciano right that momentarily dazed the North York Constable. Hal Gibson of Stouffville handles the linesman duties. GOAL IN LAST FIVE MINUTES SUTTON MIDGETS GET 4-4 TIE
A penalty to right winger Bryce Spencer in the late stages of a Midget game in Sutton on Tuesday night allowed John Learoyd’s squad to notch their fourth goal and gain a split in the points. Stouffville had racked up a three goal lead earlier in the contest only to see it fade away as the game progressed. Ron Stewart fired a pair of goals for Stouffville. Rick Wedseltoft and Norm Hendricks potted singles. Roger Beazley turned in a fine performance in the nets for the locals and could not be blamed for the loss.
The game roughened up in the final period and the Stouffville management were not happy with the type of tactics dished up by their Sutton rivals. Some of the fans also became rather hostile and it was thought for a time that there might be trouble after the game was completed. The tension subsided however, and no fracas resulted. GOAL IN FINAL MINUTES GIVES BRADFORD 5-4 WIN
With less than three minutes remaining in the third period, Bradford notched their fifth and winning goal to give them a 5-4 victory over Stouffville on Saturday night. The Clippers spotted the winners a two-goal lead early in the game, then staged a four goal rally to pull back on even terms, only to have their rivals pot the clincher. Coach Don McIntosh pulled his netminder from the cage in favour of an extra attacker but the move failed to pay off. Howard Forgie blinked the light for the first tally on passes from McDowell and Clarke. Defenceman Les Clarke notched his first goal of the campaign with McDowell picking up another assist. Frank Hendy, Bruce McDowell and Harold Hodgson combined for the Clipper’s third goal and Alex Wilkins deadlocked the count on a pass from Joe Lewis. JUVENILES BEAT UXBRIDGE 5-1 IN ROUGH CONTEST
The Stouffville Juveniles chalked up their initial victory on Friday night of last week when they defeated Uxbridge 5-1 in their schedule opener. The contest was a rough affair as the teams threw their weight around from the opening whistle. Leftwinger Murray Holden and defenceman Bob Todd waged a private feud throughout the game with both boys taking the others measure at every opportunity. Ross Madill paced the Stouffville attack potting a pair of goals. Single tallies were notched by Steve Wideman, Howard Malcolm and Ted Suzuki. Uxbridge fired their lone marker in the second frame. The
local squad had a number of chances to add to their total when Don Haynes and Mike McStravick broke into the clear but neither could blink the light. Harold Hodgson officiated. The two teams will “fight “it out again Friday evening of this week in the Uxbridge arena but the officials intend to clamp down on the rough tactics. More than 200 fans witnessed the game. MIDGETS WHIP SUTTON 7-4, HENDRICKS STARS
The Stouffville Midgets’ first string trio of Norm Hendricks, Glenn Pennanen and Rick Wedseltoft showed off their true form on Friday evening as they connected for five goals in chalking up a 7-4 victory over Sutton. It was the first meeting between the two clubs this season. Norm Hendricks was the star of the contest. He potted a pair of goals and assisted on two other tallies to pace the Stouffville attack. In addition he set up numerous other plays that had the Sutton defence somewhat disorganized at times. Hendricks goals came in the first and third periods. Glenn Pennanen kept pace with his linemate by firing two, his first proving to be the game-winning tally. He picked one assist. Left- winger Rick Wedseltoft notched one goal and assisted on two others. Other Stouffville marksmen were Harland Mills and Garry
Taylor, Paul Tomlinson, Ken McAlpine, Peter Charpentier and Ben Big Canoe blinked the light for the visitors. The first period ended in a 1-1 deadlock. Norm Hendricks opened the scoring on a pass from Rick Wedseltoft and Paul Tomlinson evened the count for Sutton near the end of the frame. In the second session, Stouffville outscored their rivals four goals to two. Harland Mills fired a low drive into the bottom corner on a rink-long solo rush, but Ken McAlpine tied it up with a long shot that goalie Mortimer fanned on. With Sutton playing a man short, Rick Wedseltoft banged in Glenn Pennanen’s goalmouth pass and Garry Taylor made it 4-2 with a similar goal on a pass from Ernie Abraham. Peter Charpentier of Sutton and Glenn Pennanen of the locals each netted singles late in the period. In the final frame, Sutton’s playing Captain Ben Big Canoe narrowed the homesters margin with a fifth tally but from that point they were held off the score sheet. Glenn Pennanen sizzled a hard shot into the twine and Norm Hendricks picked the bottom corner to end the game. Coach Bill Lennox used both netminders, Roger Beazley and Ron Mortimer in the nets with the latter working in the second period. Glenn Byer was Stouffville’s official for the game.

Juveniles Run Into “Dead End” Road Trips
Stouffville Juveniles, one of the hottest clubs in the local circuit have run into some tough luck on their current road trips. A squad made the twelve mile jaunt to Wilcox Lake only to be faced with a diamond rougher than Winterstein’s gravel pit. The Stouffville management refused to start the game for fear of a player sustaining a severe injury so the contest was called off until a later date. Then the local hardballers travelled to Richmond Hill and received a rude shock when only six Hill players showed up for the contest and the Stouffville squad put their equipment back in their cars and returned home. If the managers of the neighbouring clubs find they are unable to field a team they might have the presence of mind to splurge a dime and default the game before the opposition starts out on its ten or fifteen mike joy ride. TOWN GIRLS DOUBLE SCORE ON PEACHES IN FIRST MEETING
Stouffville girls came up with an air-tight fielding display on Friday night to down Peaches 13-6. Stouffville came behind on two occasions to win. J. Haynes and H. Snowball formed the battery for the local squad while Peaches were forced to send three pitchers to the mound to hold the opposition in check.
Peaches connected with four hits in the first inning for three runs while Stouffville kept in the running by tapping out four hits with two left stranded. Peggy White and Marg Schell crossed the plate. Stouffville rallied in the bottom of the fourth when the roof fell in on Peaches. Marg Schell slammed a four-bagger with Peggy White and Joan Haynes on base. By the sixth Stouffville was leading 9-6 when they connected for three more hit and worked the pitcher to two walks. Helen Paisley, Helen Snowball, Donna velde and Barb Hare counted the final runs for the winners.
Helen Snowball was the top batter for Stouffville with three hits and a walk in four trips to the plate. Marg Schell increased her batting average with three for four. Joan Haynes made five appearances, had one hit and walked three times. Stouffville have an air-tight infield with Donna Velde on first, Marg Schell at second, Carolyn Haynes at third and Peggy White at short. The outfield of Pat Lehman, Helen Paisley and Barb Hare is very reliable. SHAMROCKS OUT HIT MARKHAM BUT LOSE
Stouffville Shamrocks slugged pitcher Peg O’Neill for ten hits but threw the game with a number of two and three base errors. Markham took the game with a score of 14-4.
Stouffville found themselves woefully shorthanded at game time and had to call on the services of a couple of fans. The weakened lineup proved to be their downfall as the Markham batters took advantage of seven scattered hits and stretched them for extra bases.
Jack Sumner started on the mound for the Shamrocks and went five innings. Jerry hooker finished the game. Coach Earl Cook was the top batsman with three hits in four trips to the plate.
Stouffville fielders committed ten errors in the seven innings contest while Markham played flawless ball. SIX CLUBS ENTER HORSESHOE TOURNEY

CLIPPERS EDGE NEWMARKET 4-3 IN CROWD PLEASING PERFORMANCE
Stouffville Clippers squeezed out a thrilling 4-3 victory over the Newmarket Spitfires on Saturday night, in one of the most colourful exhibitions of the season. The Spits looked very good and are certainly a suitable replacement for the Swedenbound Lyndhurst Motors. Nick Bangay was once again the triggerman for Stouffville as he fired what proved to be the winner at 12.20 of the third period. Jack Rhodes turned in a steady performance in the Clipper cage and outshone the opposing netminder Tupling who looked a trifle shy at times.
Both clubs battled through a scoreless first period although each team had a number of chances to blink the light. Newmarket were granted the first real opportunity to test sub goalie jack Rhodes when centreman Ken McNeil was banished for high sticking. The Stouffville defense and back-checking forwards kept the play confined almost entirely to the centre ice zone and the Spits failed to get a shot on the Clipper cage. A few minutes later Bradbury was penalized for holding Geo. Stark but Stouffville were not able to get any clearcut drives on the Newmarket net. Midway through the period defenseman Joe Scatalon teed off on one of his deadly slap shots, but the puck caromed off the post. Elwood Small worked in close but the puck went astray as the Stouffville forward tumbled over the sprawling Spitfire goalie.
Goaltender Jack Rhodes pulled off the two best saves of the game early in the second period when playing coach Herbie Cain and Ortie Thomas broke through the Clipper defences. Rhodes fell to the ice and blocked both scoring attempts at 9.45. Mclver and Gibson teamed up for the Spits to open the scoring on a close-in play. Three minutes later Gordie Haddleton, Frank Stephenson and Elwood Small combined to tie the score. The goal came on three quick passing attacks in front on the Newmarket net. EATOUGH ROBBED OF SHUT OUT BY FLUKE GOAL
A fluke goal robbed goalie Blake Eatough of a well deserved shut out on Monday night as Stouffville Clippers scored a 6-1 win over Leaside. The local squad had racked up a substantial 6-0 lead with only a few minutes remaining in the game, when a Leaside forward let a shot go that bounced high over the net and then rolled across the line when it came down and hit the ice. The clippers were full value for their victory on nights play. Goaltender Eatough returned to his familiar position between the pipes and turned in a dazzling performance. Ken McNeil and Hal Gibson were two goal marksmen for Stouffville with Polly Minton and Elwood Small notching singles. Rightwinger Geo. Stark was forced to retire from the game in the first period when he struck his head hard on the ice.
George Stark, shifty Clipper right winger suffered a concussion on Monday night in the game against Leaside. The Stouffville forward was knocked to the ice early in the game and struck his head. The injury may force him to remain on the sidelines when The Clippers meet the Ravina Flyers here on Saturday night. RED WINGS BLANK MAPLE LEAFS 13-0 ON LIONS NHL
Detroit Red Wings strengthened their hold on fourth place in the lions NHL on Saturday night as they whitewashed the maple Leafs 13-0. Don Haines led the attack with five goals. Don McCullough was close on his heels of his high scoring team mate with four tallies. Bob Lehman counted two while Malloy and Malcolm notched singles.
The New York Rangers pulled to within one point of the league leading Boston Bruins on Saturday as they overpowered Chicago Black Hawks by a score of 10-2. Ron Stewart paced the Ranger win with four goals. Ted Suzuki and Bill White scored two with Don Neal and Roger Stover firing the others. Mike McStravick was a powerhouse on the Chicago attack and scored their only two tallies.
In the league opener Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins battled to a sixty minute deadlock. Wayne Redshaw put the Bruins in the lead with a corner drive but Glenn Jackson tied the score on a pass from Roy Lewis. The Montrealers took the lead for the first time as Murray Hisey drove the puck into the empty net with goaltender Bud Thomas sprawled midway between the goal and the blueline. Boston’s star defenceman, Don Benson put his club back on even terms in the see-saw battle with an unassisted goal. With about ten minutes remaining in the contest, Don Tran completed a spectacular end-to-end rush and scored what could easily have been the winner. However Ron Hedges and Wayne Redshaw had different ideas as they combined for the equalizer a few minutes later. BISHOP GIVES WINGS TIE WITH BROOKLIN IN FINAL SECONDS
Bob Bishop, Stouffville Juveniles high scoring forward came through with the equalizer on Thursday night with but five seconds remaining in the game to give Stouffville a 1-1 draw with Brooklin. Bishop slapped in Bob Todd’s rebound in the final play of the contest.
Both clubs went scoreless in the first period as the Stouffville and Brooklin goaltenders were called on to make some good saves. The second period commenced with Gribben of Stouffville becoming involved in a brawl with a Brooklin opponent and both were banished with major penalties. Hardly had both clubs returned to full strength when Wagg was thumbed for tripping. However no damage was done with Bellman and Pollard warding off the Brooklin attackers with some good defensive work. With Bishop in the penalty box, Brooklin notched the first tally of the game. The game ended with a dramatic finish as Bishop scored in the final seconds. The Brooklin ice was badly cracked which made passing and stick handling difficult for both clubs.

The Casa Loma trophy awarded to the group winners by the West Toronto Kiwanis Club was presented to team captain Hal Gibson by Mr. Bill Morgan, chairman of the Leaside Arena board. The line of Gord Haddleton, Frank Stephenson and Nick Bangay outperformed Leaside’s ace threesome of Kenny Sinclair, Russ Brankston and Gord Boniface in the goal scoring department. Each of the Stouffville forwards got two goals and picked up two assists for a total of twelve points. Brankston fired two, Sinclair and Boniface netted singles. Scarcello scored the other Leaside tally. Gord Lewis started the ball rolling for the homesters at 7.16 of the first period on a pass from Minton to put the Clippers in the lead. Leaside however stormed back in the later stages of the session with two goals to momentarily set Stouffville back on their heels. Sinclair and Brankston scored only 21 seconds apart. The Stouffville crew broke free from their checks in the second frame and outscored their rivals by four goals. Rightwinger Frank Stephenson put both clubs back on even terms at 3.10 and Gordie Haddleton put Stouffville back in the driver’s seat to stay with assists going to Bangay and MacIntosh two minutes later. Haddleton fired his second shot at 11.57 and Elwood Small blinked the light from Lewis to give the Clippers a comfortable 5-2 advantage.
The third period saw each team score three goals. Bangay and Stephenson made it 7-3 midway through the final frame but Leaside struck back with two. Stouffville ran into some dangerous penalties in the later stages and in a desperate bid to get back in the game, the Leaside coach pulled the goalie. Al Leaside’s hopes were dashed when Bangay snared a loose puck and drove in the length of the ice squarely in the empty net. Although he didn’t score, centreman Ken McNeil turned in a sensational performance as he forechecked the Leaside attack almost continually while the Clippers played with men in the penalty box. RED WINGS MAKE BID FOR PEEWEE HONOURS
Don Haynes’ Detroit Red Wings are making a determined bid to capture the Stouffville Lions Peewee championship. On Saturday afternoon they downed Canadiens 7-5 to climb into first place. Haynes and Malcolm were the top marksmen for the winners with McCullough, Baston and Malloy notching singles. The Montreal goals were shared among five players, Lynn McMullen Roy Lewis, Murray Heisey, Don Tran and Mike Epworth. Canadiens pulled their goaltender in the final minute but the move backfired as rightwinger Larry Malloy flipped the puck into the open corner. Harold Harper, centre on the Canadien third line was one of the games stars although he failed to score. Haynes turned in a steady effort for the Wings.
New York Rangers coached by Bill Lennox pulled up into first place contention by edging the Maple Leafs 4-3. Wayne Pennanen was a standout star for the winners with two tallies. Don Neal and Ron Stuart notched singles. Norm Hendricks and Herbie Dawson fired the Hawk goals. In a desperate effort to even the score Hawk coach Bill Bockmaster pulled goalie Grensted from the cage and threw forward Herb Dawson into contest but his club failed score.
In the other game Boston Bruins under the coaching of John Davis came through with an important victory. They overpowered the Hawks 6-2. Wayne and Ron Hedges paced the winners attack with all six of the club’s tallies. Hedges scored four while Redshaw fired two. Thomas in the Boston net turned in one of his best puck-stopping displays as he warded off the Hawks attackers time and time again. Alan Boyd and Mike Mcstravick produced the Chicago tallies.

Trim Wheatley 6-3 in Final
Stouffville’s Jr. ‘C’ Cardinals are the new all-Ontario champions. The Cinderella club eclipsed a twin-series comeback by chalking up a 6-3 victory over Wheatley on Saturday afternoon. The “rubber” game was staged on neutral grounds at Port Dover. Barber, the Winner Righthander Harry Barber started and finished the nine inning contest. With the exception of a fourth inning lapse, he fired excellent ball.
He whiffed 12 Wheatley batsmen and walked only two. He was clipped for seven safeties. In addition to his fine defensive performance, the local curveballer belted two singles and drove in two runs.
Triple,
Key Blow
Long-ball slugger, Gord Eckardt delivered the key hit of the game. The big first-sacker uncorked a long centrefield triple in the third inning with the bases jammed. Three runners, Bob Stover, Don Haynes and Ross Madill romped home to score. Eckardt’s drive sailed an estimated 400 feet towards the outfield fence. The fielder retrieved the ball and on the relay to third base, the Stouffville runner was safe by an eyelash. He later crossed the plate when Eric Barber’s infield grounder was bobbled.
Early Shower
Wheatley starter, Bill Nevills was bombarded in the early innings. He was knocked out of the box in the third. His mates gave him rather feeble support and committed a total of five errors in two and one-third innings. The big right hander, who hurled a stingy five-hitter here in the opener, lacked control. He walked three men and was noticeably wild on numerous occasions.
Good Relief
Rightfielder Bill Knox took over from Nevills in the third. He twirled good ball and allowed Stouffville batters only two hits. In spite of his efforts, he delivered the fatal pitch to Gord Eckardt who promptly poled the ball into the daisies to clear the sacks. He retired the locals in order in the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th. Harry Barber tapped out a single in the ninth but was left stranded.
Standing Ovation
A large crowd of Stouffville supporters rose in unison to applaud Ted Suzuki’s sensational catch in deep centrefield. The “Mickey Mantle” play came in the sixth inning. Wheatley’s Brian Poulter socked a tremendous clout back near the outfield fence. Stouffville speedster. Suzuki took off at the crack of the bat and pulled down the drive with an over-the-shoulder catch. The put-out ended the inning.
Double Play
John Little’s sparkling double play in the fifth inning appeared to give pitcher Barber the necessary confidence to clinch the victory. With runners parked on second and third and only one out, Larry Liberock sliced a well-hit ball at leftfielder John Little. The Cardinal outfielder shifted to his left, grabbed the ball and fired a perfect strike to second- sacker Lynn Taylor. Nevills was picked off by ten feet. The sparkling defensive play halted a Wheatley rally and held the opposition off the score sheet.
Other Hits
In addition to Barber’s two hits and Eckardt’s long triple, two other Card batsmen bagged singles. Ted Suzuki tapped out a single in the first and Ross Madill poked out a hit in the third. Bill Nevills was Wheatley’s top batter with a pair of singles. Don Rivard belted a triple and Wayne Ives bashed a double.
Strong Fan Support
Stouffville spectators outnumbered Wheatley fans by ten to one. Only four supporters made the 130 mile trip from the Lake Erie centre. Both teams encountered strong outfield cross-winds that played havoc with well-hit balls. Curveballer Barber found it difficult to use his sharp-breaking stuff agains the stiff breezes. In spite of the 30 mile per hour gusts, he registered 12 strike outs. He racked up a total of 40 strike outs in the three game series.
Mob Pitcher
Battery mates, Harry Barber and Don Haynes were literally mobbed by both fans and players. Coach Murray Stewart was vaulted up on the shoulders of his proteges and lustily cheered. An across-town motor cavalcade completed the championship celebrations. The majority of players are still eligible for Junior competition next season. LOCAL TRIO WINS MULOCK TROPHY
Eleanor Crossen skipped the winning Ladies Trebles rink for the Mulock Trophy at Newmarket last week. Mrs. Elgin Wagg and Mrs. George Middleton were the other members of this rink. Because of rain, the

Juveniles Run Into “Dead End” Road Trips
Stouffville Juveniles, one of the hottest clubs in the local circuit have run into some tough luck on their current road trips. A squad made the twelve mile jaunt to Wilcox Lake only to be faced with a diamond rougher than Winterstein’s gravel pit. The Stouffville management refused to start the game for fear of a player sustaining a severe injury so the contest was called off until a later date. Then the local hardballers travelled to Richmond Hill and received a rude shock when only six Hill players showed up for the contest and the Stouffville squad put their equipment back in their cars and returned home. If the managers of the neighbouring clubs find they are unable to field a team they might have the presence of mind to splurge a dime and default the game before the opposition starts out on its ten or fifteen mike joy ride. TOWN GIRLS DOUBLE SCORE ON PEACHES IN FIRST MEETING
Stouffville girls came up with an air-tight fielding display on Friday night to down Peaches 13-6. Stouffville came behind on two occasions to win. J. Haynes and H. Snowball formed the battery for the local squad while Peaches were forced to send three pitchers to the mound to hold the opposition in check.
Peaches connected with four hits in the first inning for three runs while Stouffville kept in the running by tapping out four hits with two left stranded. Peggy White and Marg Schell crossed the plate. Stouffville rallied in the bottom of the fourth when the roof fell in on Peaches. Marg Schell slammed a four-bagger with Peggy White and Joan Haynes on base. By the sixth Stouffville was leading 9-6 when they connected for three more hit and worked the pitcher to two walks. Helen Paisley, Helen Snowball, Donna velde and Barb Hare counted the final runs for the winners.
Helen Snowball was the top batter for Stouffville with three hits and a walk in four trips to the plate. Marg Schell increased her batting average with three for four. Joan Haynes made five appearances, had one hit and walked three times. Stouffville have an air-tight infield with Donna Velde on first, Marg Schell at second, Carolyn Haynes at third and Peggy White at short. The outfield of Pat Lehman, Helen Paisley and Barb Hare is very reliable. SHAMROCKS OUT HIT MARKHAM BUT LOSE
Stouffville Shamrocks slugged pitcher Peg O’Neill for ten hits but threw the game with a number of two and three base errors. Markham took the game with a score of 14-4.
Stouffville found themselves woefully shorthanded at game time and had to call on the services of a couple of fans. The weakened lineup proved to be their downfall as the Markham batters took advantage of seven scattered hits and stretched them for extra bases.
Jack Sumner started on the mound for the Shamrocks and went five innings. Jerry hooker finished the game. Coach Earl Cook was the top batsman with three hits in four trips to the plate.
Stouffville fielders committed ten errors in the seven innings contest while Markham played flawless ball. SIX CLUBS ENTER HORSESHOE TOURNEY

CLIPPERS EDGE NEWMARKET 4-3 IN CROWD PLEASING PERFORMANCE
Stouffville Clippers squeezed out a thrilling 4-3 victory over the Newmarket Spitfires on Saturday night, in one of the most colourful exhibitions of the season. The Spits looked very good and are certainly a suitable replacement for the Swedenbound Lyndhurst Motors. Nick Bangay was once again the triggerman for Stouffville as he fired what proved to be the winner at 12.20 of the third period. Jack Rhodes turned in a steady performance in the Clipper cage and outshone the opposing netminder Tupling who looked a trifle shy at times.
Both clubs battled through a scoreless first period although each team had a number of chances to blink the light. Newmarket were granted the first real opportunity to test sub goalie jack Rhodes when centreman Ken McNeil was banished for high sticking. The Stouffville defense and back-checking forwards kept the play confined almost entirely to the centre ice zone and the Spits failed to get a shot on the Clipper cage. A few minutes later Bradbury was penalized for holding Geo. Stark but Stouffville were not able to get any clearcut drives on the Newmarket net. Midway through the period defenseman Joe Scatalon teed off on one of his deadly slap shots, but the puck caromed off the post. Elwood Small worked in close but the puck went astray as the Stouffville forward tumbled over the sprawling Spitfire goalie.
Goaltender Jack Rhodes pulled off the two best saves of the game early in the second period when playing coach Herbie Cain and Ortie Thomas broke through the Clipper defences. Rhodes fell to the ice and blocked both scoring attempts at 9.45. Mclver and Gibson teamed up for the Spits to open the scoring on a close-in play. Three minutes later Gordie Haddleton, Frank Stephenson and Elwood Small combined to tie the score. The goal came on three quick passing attacks in front on the Newmarket net. EATOUGH ROBBED OF SHUT OUT BY FLUKE GOAL
A fluke goal robbed goalie Blake Eatough of a well deserved shut out on Monday night as Stouffville Clippers scored a 6-1 win over Leaside. The local squad had racked up a substantial 6-0 lead with only a few minutes remaining in the game, when a Leaside forward let a shot go that bounced high over the net and then rolled across the line when it came down and hit the ice. The clippers were full value for their victory on nights play. Goaltender Eatough returned to his familiar position between the pipes and turned in a dazzling performance. Ken McNeil and Hal Gibson were two goal marksmen for Stouffville with Polly Minton and Elwood Small notching singles. Rightwinger Geo. Stark was forced to retire from the game in the first period when he struck his head hard on the ice.
George Stark, shifty Clipper right winger suffered a concussion on Monday night in the game against Leaside. The Stouffville forward was knocked to the ice early in the game and struck his head. The injury may force him to remain on the sidelines when The Clippers meet the Ravina Flyers here on Saturday night. RED WINGS BLANK MAPLE LEAFS 13-0 ON LIONS NHL
Detroit Red Wings strengthened their hold on fourth place in the lions NHL on Saturday night as they whitewashed the maple Leafs 13-0. Don Haines led the attack with five goals. Don McCullough was close on his heels of his high scoring team mate with four tallies. Bob Lehman counted two while Malloy and Malcolm notched singles.
The New York Rangers pulled to within one point of the league leading Boston Bruins on Saturday as they overpowered Chicago Black Hawks by a score of 10-2. Ron Stewart paced the Ranger win with four goals. Ted Suzuki and Bill White scored two with Don Neal and Roger Stover firing the others. Mike McStravick was a powerhouse on the Chicago attack and scored their only two tallies.
In the league opener Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins battled to a sixty minute deadlock. Wayne Redshaw put the Bruins in the lead with a corner drive but Glenn Jackson tied the score on a pass from Roy Lewis. The Montrealers took the lead for the first time as Murray Hisey drove the puck into the empty net with goaltender Bud Thomas sprawled midway between the goal and the blueline. Boston’s star defenceman, Don Benson put his club back on even terms in the see-saw battle with an unassisted goal. With about ten minutes remaining in the contest, Don Tran completed a spectacular end-to-end rush and scored what could easily have been the winner. However Ron Hedges and Wayne Redshaw had different ideas as they combined for the equalizer a few minutes later. BISHOP GIVES WINGS TIE WITH BROOKLIN IN FINAL SECONDS
Bob Bishop, Stouffville Juveniles high scoring forward came through with the equalizer on Thursday night with but five seconds remaining in the game to give Stouffville a 1-1 draw with Brooklin. Bishop slapped in Bob Todd’s rebound in the final play of the contest.
Both clubs went scoreless in the first period as the Stouffville and Brooklin goaltenders were called on to make some good saves. The second period commenced with Gribben of Stouffville becoming involved in a brawl with a Brooklin opponent and both were banished with major penalties. Hardly had both clubs returned to full strength when Wagg was thumbed for tripping. However no damage was done with Bellman and Pollard warding off the Brooklin attackers with some good defensive work. With Bishop in the penalty box, Brooklin notched the first tally of the game. The game ended with a dramatic finish as Bishop scored in the final seconds. The Brooklin ice was badly cracked which made passing and stick handling difficult for both clubs.

Stouffville fans will get their first glimpse of their Junior home team this year, when the Maple Leaf Juniors line up against North Toronto Lions here on Monday night, North Toronto Lions, Junior ‘B’ were semi-finalists for Ontario championship last year. manager Cec. Hendricks has a strong Junior Club lined up, and one which will provide plenty of Junior action here all winter.
That was a real heartening display Stouffville Clippers put on against the Peterboro champs here Monday night, and one which will certainly bring them bigger and bigger crowds as the season progresses. The Clippers were never behind during the entire game, and they have several outstanding players who showed themselves to be real opportunists around the net.
On both Wednesday and Saturday night skaters from near and far flocked to the new arena. Over 400 skated merrily over gleaming surface on the first night and cramped feet and aching bones only created an urge to return on the following Saturday. The music was good as well as the ice, so you who haven’t tried on the blades yet had better sharpen them up and come out with crowd this week. BILL BALL MOTORS PUT UP TROPHY
Bill Ball Motors has put up competition a gleaming trophy which a shield will be added the player storing the most points during the season. The trophy has a dark base on top of which is situated a silver player. It will be interesting for the spectators to follow the point scoring race and should certainly add a competitive. spirit between the players themselves. CLIPPERS TIE SENIOR CHAMPIONS 7-ALL
(
After dropping their first game with the Legions at Peterboro, our local Clippers came back strong to hold the northern champions to be 7-7- draw. The locals looked like a different club as they forged ahead into the club as they forged ahead into the enemy zone on many occasions. Stouffville led all the way until with only a few minutes to play Montgomery of the Legion tied the score in a close in play around the net. Joey Irvine in the local cage played an outstanding game catching and kicking out many impossible shots. Polly Minton also turned in a good game making one of the nicest solo rushes if the game. Picking up the puck at his own blue line, Polly twisted and turned by opposing players and drove a shot past skates of the Legion goalie. If our local club improves as much in the next few weeks as they have since their last home appearance we feel sure the fans are in for many nights of thrills during the coming season. Thomas, another newcomers, picked up three goals, and was a standout with his bursting speed. FREE SKATING FOR YOUNGEST EVERY SATURDAY AFTERNOON
The Stouffville Athletic Club is providing free skating on Saturday afternoon from 1.30 to 3.30 p.m. for youngest under twelve years old, at the new Arena. This fine piece of work has been done for the children of the home and district for several seasons.
It’s a real opportunity for younger tots to learn to skate, and provides time for them, leaving evenings free for the older skaters. There is considerable risk of an accident with small children skating on Wednesday and Saturday nights with four to five hundred on the ice, and the provision for this special Saturday afternoon time it is hoped will alleviate this.

CLIPPERS EDGE COLLINGWOOD 5-4
(
On Monday night Stouffville Clippers staged by far their best game of the season downing Collingwood Shipbuilders 5-4 before a good holiday crowd.
The local boys played with a grim determination to win although the opposition were a much heavier aggregation.
The Clippers took advantage go every break and ran in two goals without a reply from the visitors. Gord Lewis, still goal hungry, sank the rubber for both markers formulate and Baker.
Only four minutes had passed in the second frame when Lewis again set up Couch who made no mistake with a close in shot. Seeing the lighter but faster team blinking the light on three occasions the Shipbuilders came back and scored two in a row, Collingwood’s burly defenceman beating Mulholland both times. Near the end of the period, Polly Minton kept his team two up on a neat passing play from Clarke and Bradbury to end the period 4-2 in favour of the Clippers.
Gault opened the final frame with a goal on a pass from Lewis but Collingwood were not through. Portland scored from Sandell at 15.55 and Kirby added another three minutes later to put their right back in the running. The Clippers held on desperately and went to the dressing room with three straight wins to their credit.
The win put the Clippers in first place in the league standing with seven points. Markham and Toronto Meteors are tied for second with five points each. However, Markham has a game in hand, postponed from last Friday, and an expected win on Tuesday in Midland seemed certain to put them on even terms again with Stouffville.
Big Jack Portland, a 225-pounder on the Collingwood defence was watched with interest by the eight hundred fans who saw the game. Portland was a standout defenceman along with Eddie Shore for the Boston Bruins some years ago/. he also saw some service with Chicago Black Hawks and Montreal Canadians, and represented Montreal at the NHL speed skating trials back in his heyday.
Harry Morrison and Jim Granger did the officiating and kept the rough artist pretty well in check.

The High School split a double header ball game with Markham on local grounds Tuesday, the girls handing their visitors a 26-4 shellacking, and the home boys absorbing a 10-4 drubbing. Markham took both ends of the twin bill, 12-9 for the boys and 28-30 for the girls, played in Markham Thursday.
Ken Laushway and Everton Smith were among the fishermen who journeyed to Haliburton during the weekend for a spot of trout fishing. Local barber, Bob Snowball, and Bruce Harper tried their luck at Lake Simcoe. Mrs. Jack Pennock who accompanied her husband on an expedition to Simcoe is reported to have brought in three of the nicest trout caught that day. The Pennocks of Aurora are former Stouffville folk. FOURTEEN TEAMS NOW IN TRI-COUNTY
Fourteen teams have signals their intention of entering the Tri-County, three less than last year. All teams had presentation at last week’s meeting except Cambray and Cameron. The league will split into three sections, eastern, central and western. The east group will be Lindsay, Bobcaygeon, Fenelon Falls, Cambray and Cameron. The central section will be Little Britain, Sonya, Woodpile, Manilla and Valentia. The western group will be Port Perry, Stouffville, Sutton and Sunderland. The longer schedule will permit the teams to get in ore games than to get in more games in the previous years. A new idea was suggested in the way of a consolation playoffs series for teams not making the playoffs. One of the brewing firms has offered to put up a trophy for this series. The western section of the Tri -County league opens May 29, with two games, Sutton at Stouffville and Port perry at Sunderland.

Lorne Boadway went the route for Stouffville and that was nine innings. Boadway went the nine giving up but two hits and a walk. But that’s not all. He also racked up fourteen strike-outs.

Stouffville 6 Port Perry 4
Stouffville led off well in the game and was always on top throughout the game. It wasn’t until the last of the seventh that Stouffville was in trouble. Two were out and two Port men were on bases. “Big” Bill Harper was at bat and looked business. Miller breezed one in and Harper teed off on the ball for what looked like a sure double. However, Cook, at second moved hard to the right as the ball was hit and really made a sparkling catch to end the game. The Beavers started off in the top of first with but a walk and no more. Miller kept Port at a stand-still in the bottom half with nothing across. Ted Cadieux got a nice hit over short-stop to put him on first in the second.

Bobby Hassard, the lead-off man, reached first on an error in the third. Butch Schell scarified Bob to second but was thrown out himself at first.

In the bottom half of the third. Port perry batters went down swinging as “Long Tom” pitched superb ball.
Stouffville added another run in the fourth when Minton walked Port perry was held to one hit in the fourth, a two bagger by Lowery. Harper was intentionally walked by Miller so that a weal batter could be gotten and things worked out according to plan as Haley flied out to squelch the rally.

Aurora 13 Stouffville 0
The same Juniors who walloped the Intermediates really walloped the Monarchs. The Aurora pitching was shared by J. Simmons, Steve Andrews and R. Simmons. Although the earned run average was really six for Aurora, they scored most of their runs on errors and bone-head plays. Boadway and Bayes were the local moundsmen. JUVENILE MONARCHS ALMOST BLANK SUTTON
Stouffville 13 Sutton 1

Both pitchers looked like big-timers who had been pitching for twenty years. SUNDERLAND BESTED BY STOUFFVILLE AGAIM
Stouffville 7 Sunderland 4
Last Thursday night was the time and Community Park at Sunderland was the place. The Sunderland club seemed to hit Miller quite well but couldn’t succeed in scoring. Miller looked good for the Beavers, striking out ten b taters. Between the two Tiger pitchers, Campbell and Farrell, only four strike-outs were accounted for. L. Schell, lead-off man, flied out to the right-fielder in the first. However, Bob Hassard, the next batter, bounced a ball off the rink a good 350 ft. away. the ball rolled under the rink and Bob scampered around for the first run.

Jennings, the eighth batter, struck out. For Sunderland, two runs were scored off three hits and one error and this made the score three to two for the Beavers. Stouffville batters faced a new pitcher in the second. Farrell seemed to do better than Campbell had been doing in holding the Beavers.

Sunderland worked another hit and a walk off Miller in the second but no runs were scored.

COOK PINNED SUTTON DOWN WITH NINETEEN STRIKEOUTS
Stouffville 4 Sutton 3
Whew! that was too close for comfort believe you me. It’s too bad that television isn’t broadcasted from Memorial Park. The Sutton squad really flew high and the Stouffville squad barely crawling until the ninth innings when they squeezed out a 4-3 win in a league fixture with the Lake Simcoe squad. In the first for Sutton, it was three runs off two hits. Two errors were committed by Stouffville. Two Sutton batters struck out. Stouffville collected nothing in their half. No runs, no hits and no errors as George Holburn allowed nothing. Cook worked hard on the Stouffville hill all the way striking out seventeen batters. In the second for Stouffville, not a hit was collected but one walk was given up pt Wagg, the Beaver back-stop. Two more Sutton batters went down swinging in the third as Earl Cook, former pro, found every corner on the plate and a few more besides. In the third for Stouffville, one hit only was collected off Holburn’s
offering. It was the same story in the fourth for Sutton as Cook mowed down the opposition with three strike-outs. Holburn held the Beavers to infield pops and grounders in their bat. In the fifth, one more strike-out was recorded for Cook, and other two batters grounding out to Butch Schell at second. Stouffville had little to brag about in their half-innings as three men struck out. The Beavers broke the jinx in the sixth when Porky Schell crossed the plate with their first run. The seventh for Sutton saw three in a row fall under the count of “strike three” as Earl Cook pitched marvelous ball. George Holburn gave up one hit in the seventh but his mates retired the rest of the Beaver batters. Schell replaced Wagg behind the plate and the move had a steadying affect.There was a minor squabble in Sutton’s half of the eighth. Learoyd hit a grand slam triple, and evidently he didn’t touch second. Learoyd contested his case with base Umpire Lew Murphy, but Murphy gave him the cold thumb. Stouffville eked out other run in their half
to make the score three to two for Sutton. Sutton went down swinging in the ninth with the aid of fire-ball Cook. It was the last of the ninth and do or die for Stouffville. Jennings, the first batter, struck out. K. Laushway hit safety. Minton struck out but L. Schell reached second on an error to score the tying run. Hassard clouted a long fly to score Schell and win the game. Earl Cook is running Miller a close race for Strike-out King with nineteen in the game. Cook, also gave up but three hits. Holburn gave up six. GIRLS’ LEAGUE
(Jim Thomas)
The girls’ league seems to be well under way with all teams hitting the column this week. At home our local girls went down before the hard hitting bats of Victoria Square. The Square seems headed for the top rung unless the other teams catch fire shortly. Thornhill after taking their first game from Peaches were trounced soundly by this same club 11-1 at Unionville. “Flo” Anderson went all the way for the seventh concession gals and aided the winning cause with a three bagger later in the game. The Yonge Street girls with their supporters became a little too excited on many occasions and had to be quieted down by the umpires handling the game. This week sees Victoria Square take on Thornhill in a home and home encounter while Stouffville and Peaches square off twice, here on Tuesday and over at Unionville on Friday evening. Here’s hoping the local supporters get behind their respective clubs and give them the support they deserve. We are unable to give any give them unable to give any exact standing of the various clubs because some have played as many as four of five games over the other teams.

MIDGET PLAYOFF ROUND WITH PORT PERRY ALL TIED UP
(By Jim Thomas)
Failure to stay on the ice in the last period on Monday night, cost the local Midgets their second playoff game with Port Perry, and tied up the round at one game each. The final score was Port Perry 4, Stouffville 3. an identical score with Saturday night in Stouffville The game was deadlocked 3-all as the final round started, but the local boys’ penalties and agile goal-keeping by the Port netminder
spelled the difference. The third and deciding game of the series will be played in Port Perry this Thursday night. Displaying too much power and speed the local Midgets went one game up in their best of two out of three game series with Port Perry as they edged their eastern rivals 4-3 on Saturday night. The boys set a fast pace throughout the entire sixty minutes and only for the great work of Owens in the visitor’s net the score would have been doubled. The young netminder turned in a terrific performance stopping what appeared to be sure goals. Simpson of the locals proved to be the hero of the night as he shot the puck into the twine for the winning tally after eight minutes had gone by in the third period. Port Perry has a good chance to tie the count midway through the final twenty minutes but Hallman in the local cage pulled off a sensational stop with his glove to keep his team in front. Don Forgie started the ball rolling just thirty-seven seconds after the opening face off with assist going to Beverley and Lewis. Play see-sawed back and forth until 15.55 when the Scugog squad tied the final count with Walker blinking the light from Peel. Three minutes later beverley of the locals put his team in the lead again on a pass from Forgie and the period ended with Port Perry trailing 2-1. The visitors came back stronger in the second frame and showed that they were not going down to defeat without a fight. After five minutes had passed Dusty put both teams on even terms again and at 8.33 Ashenhurst put the visitors one goal up, In the dying minutes of the period Lewis came to the rescue, beating Owens with a blueline drive and put both teams on even terms for the third time in the game. The third period started with the locals putting on terrific pressure to good advantage playing the puck back to them time and time again in hopes that one shot might find the target. At 8.22 Simpson netted what proved to be the winning tally after a pile up around the Port Perry cage. Owens had the puck stopped but couldn’t clear it in time to save the goal. Forfar picked up an assist on the play. Both teams battled hard during the rest of the twenty minutes but neither could capitalize on their plays. Lewis, Harmon and Forgie turned in a good game for the home team while Owens was by far the best for the visitors handling over twice the shots as Hallman in the locals cage. The two teams hook up again in Port Perry for the second contest and should Stouffville be the victors they will be ready for the next round of their playoffs but in the case of the Port team make a comeback a third and final game will be needed. BANTAMS DROP FROM PLAYOFF FIGHT AS AJAX WINS 6-0 AND 6-2
(By Jim Thomas)
The local Bantam entry has been eliminated by Ajax in two straight games losing the first by a score of 6-0 and dropping the second on Saturday night 6-2. Ajax counted one in the first, three in the second, and two more in the final period while the locals found the target for one tally in the first and added another in the third period.
Rowland blinked the light for the opening goal but the locals fought back to tie the score as Don Haynes bulged the twine before the end of the period. Rowland who was the big gun for the Ajax squad, firing four of his team’s six markers, notched his second and third markers in the first half of the second frame and Squelcher made it 4-1 to end the scoring of the period. Stouffville scored their second and final goal of the game as Ron Wilson put the puck in the net for the first marker of the third frame. Boyd added another for the visitors and Rowland tallied the last goal of the game and his forth of the night to give Ajax the contest and the series in two straight games. The winners now move on to do battle with Port Perry who have been given a bye into the playoffs.

CLIPPERS SLUMP CONTINUES WIN IN OVERTIME FROM ALLISTON
Despite the fact that they managed to down Alliston Royals, 5-2 on Monday night, it required ten minutes of overtime to do it. The Clippers are definitely in a slump. and had their fans nearly frantic with their poor showing against the last place senior club. Manager Kewley of Alliston is still hot for an argument, and held up Monday night’s game for nearly ten minutes while he pressed his claim that a rest period was allowed before the overtime session began. He even went so far as to tell referee Harry Morrison that Mr. Panter, O.H.A. boss, had told him that no overtime was necessary at all if the teams didn’t wish to play. This bit of nonsense will likely cost him a trip to the O.H.A. carpet. Stouffville took a 1-0 lead in the first period, McCrone taking a pass from Stark who just stepped on the ice after serving a penalty in time to relay the puck to the fast-moving McCrone. Hopper made it 2-0 as the second got underway, getting a corner passout from Couch. Booker matched this effort for Alliston making the score at the end of the second 2-1. Alliston actually outplayed the Clipper crowd at times, as they raced all over the ice like a flock of sheep. After numerous close-in tries at both ends of the rink, the Royals finally knotted the count at 16.23 of the last period. Only in the overtime did Stouffville show definite superiority, and bagged a trio of goals in the ten minutes. Sayliss, Gibson and Lewis were the marksmen. The game was marred by no less than twenty penalties, with as many as four players jamming the penalty box at one time.

MIDGET HUMBLE BOBCAYGEON 9-3; FORSYTH NETS 3
Roger forsyth fired a three goal hat trick and Jim Knox potted a pair to pace the Midgets to a 9-3 victory over Bobcaygeon on Thursday night in the Stouffville Arena. Single tallies came from the sticks of Warren Hendricks, Gary Yates, Jim Wagg and Peter Stover.
The homesters carried a six goal lead into the return tilt that was scheduled for the Bobcaygeon rink on Wednesday.
Due to a severe snowstorm that blanketed the area, the contest did not start until 10 o’clock. It was slated to begin at 8:45 pm. The Bobcaygeon players and management remained over night in Stouffville and returned home on Friday morning.
Stouffville outshot their rivals 52-23. In spite of the lopsided figures, the local entry did not have complete domination of the play. Bobcaygeon checked the Stouffville forwards fiercely and the majority of their passing plays were broken up at the blueline.
Only in the final period did the homesters break the game wide open. They counted five goals. The visitors notched one.
Possibly the most significant factor in the contest was the fine performance of third-string forward, Gary Yates. He entered the game almost “cold” in third period, due to an injury to team mate Grant Pascoe.
Rightwinger Barry McLean dropped back to a rearguard spot and coach Hal Gibson tossed Yates into the frontline fray. Within the space of eight minutes, he fired one goal and picked two assists. He worked on a line with centreman Roger Forsyth and winger, Jim Wagg.
Ron Oliver and John Nicholls were the Bobcaygeon marksmen. The contest was cleanly played. Only two penalties were handed out. Both went to Stouffville. Peter Stover and Stan Feasby served time for minor infractions. PEEWEE ENTRY LOSES 3-2 IN PLAYOFF TILT; BILLY FARTHING STARS
Billy Farthing, a small but agile netminder, turned in a fine performance in the Stouffville cage on Monday night in spite of his teams 3-2 loss to Woodbridge. It was the first game in the newly-organized OMHA Peewee zone playoffs. The goals-to-count series will now swing back to Woodbridge ice.
Goalie Farthing had no chance to stop the three pucks that slipped past him. Woodbridge scored once in each of the three periods. Chris Hatton, Barry Turnbull and Gerry Byle were the marksmen for the winners.
Stouffville started rather slowly but they appeared to gain more confidence as the contest progressed. In the dying minutes of the final frame they peppered shot after shot at the Woodbridge net but could not score.
Keith Beta sizzled a drive off the post. Blair Wagg, Bruce Mehaffey and Eric Hamilton all had good chances but the puck either missed the target or was turned aside.
Eric Hamilton and Donald Smith scored the stouffville goals.
At 8:15 of the first period, Hatton of Woodbridge scooped a rebound shot over the prone form of goalie Farthing to put the visitors out front 1-0. Turnbull made it 2-0 completing a fine three-way passing play.
Larry Manuel of Woodbridge had a wide-open chance to break up the game when he drifted in alone on goalie Farthing but the local puck-stopper blocked his drive.
Stouffville moved into the goalscoring spotlight at 19:30 of the second frame. Hugh Boyd of Woodbridge shoved the puck into his own cage. Eric Hamilton was given credit for the tally.
Early in the third period, defenceman Donald Smith sailed a long one at the Woodbridge net. The goalie failed to see the shot in time to make a move. The score was deadlocked at 2-2.
At 7:37, Gerry Byle sizzled a hard drive into the top corner of the Stouffville cage. It proved to be the winner.
Farthing “pulled off” his best save of the contest with only 3 minutes to go in the game. Donald Milani broke free from centre ice and coasted in alone on the defence-less goaltender. Farthing sprawled across the crease and smothered the shot.
There were only two penalties in the game, one to each club. The Stouffville entry was handled by coach Jake Marmon. He was assisted by Head Coach. Bob Bangay. FORGIE, ALLEN PACE MERCHANTS TO SEMI-FINAL ROUND
Howard Forgie came up with his best game of the season and linemate Bill Allan turned in his usual heads-up effort to pace the Stouffville Merchants into the Community League semi-finals. They downed Peach’s 5-3 and 6-3 to take the round 11-6.
Allan scored two goals and picked up three assists. Forgie counted three tallies and assisted on one. Harry Young was the other Stouffville marksman.
Peach’s lacked the drive that had featured the first game of the series. They trailed 3-1 at the end of the first period. Harrison, Les Jarvis and Murray Lewis were the goal-getters for Peach’s. They were outshot 15-9.
Peach’s had a good opportunity to close the gap in the first frame when two players Alex Wilkins and Bill Allan were banished with minor penalties. They failed to get potent attack organized.
Goalie Jim Johnston “pulled off” a great stop on a wide-open drive by Harry Young. Young a shot off the post on an earlier bid.
John Reesor broke from centre ice for Peach’s, but his shot missed the target. WAGG SPARKS CANADIENS TO 3-2 VICTORY
Blair Wagg sparked the Canadiens to a 3-2 win over the Rangers in a close Peewee contest on Thursday night. He scored two goals and picked up one assist. Kirk Mortimer blinked the light for the other tally.

MARG. SMITH SPARKS STOUFFVILLE GIRLS TO WIN OVER NEWMARKET Lead-off batter Marg Smith may be one of the lightest performers on the Stouffville girls team but with a bat she packs plenty of power. She proved this on Wednesday night when she belted out four hits to spark the homesters to a 16-10 win over Newmarket. The Stouffville left fielder is no long-ball hitter. She concentrates however in slipping ground ball singles through the infield that are good for at least one or perhaps two bases. On Wednesday she connected for three singles and a double. She was robbed of another extra-base blow in the eighth inning. Short stop Dana McGrath gloved a line drive that was headed for the daisies. Jane Cook, Gwenn Kennedy, Ila Redshaw, Doreen Alexander, Erma Redshaw, Joyce Roberts, Bonnie Kennedy.

McLean Shines in Defeat — Stouffville Juniors were unsuccessful in their opening foot ball game against Markham. Stouffville under the direction of lanky quarter-back Jim Hill in the first half. In the second play of the game McLean galloped 65 yards on a pass play only to have it called back. Markham broke through for a touchdown in the second quarter after a strong Stouffville defense had held for several onslaughts. John Smithson and Peter O’Connor were defensive standouts for our squad, while Gary Gall rushed effectively on offense. Markham made the score 10-0 with a field goal in the final minutes. After the game, Coach Rehill stated, “It really was a close game disregarding the score. McLean’s punting under pressure was tremendous and our defensive looks terrific. When that offense clicks, we’ll start to win games.” Stouffville’s second game will be at Bayview High on Thursday.

SRS STAGE COMEBACK, BLANK JRS. 26-0 by Wayne Hamilton Friday was football day at Stouffville High.

On their second play Betty Ann Slack intercepted a wobbly pass and sprinted 55 yards for a Grade 12 touchdown. The convert attempt failed to get the ball off the ground and Grade 12 went ahead 6-0.

GAME POSTPONED
Owing to wet weather the return game in the O.B.A.A. play-down with Peterborough is postponed form Wednesday to Saturday, Sept. 15th at Memorial Park, Stouffville, at 3 p.m.
If Stouffville wins this game they will be tied with Peterborough and the winners will meet either Leamington or Niagara Falls for the Provincial championship O.B.A.A.
The locals deserve the support of a big crowd of fans.
Mr. and Mrs S.W. Hastings took in the ball game at Peterborough Saturday spending the weekend with the relatives there. PETERBOROUGH WINS A CLOSE GAME
After winning four straight games in the Intermediate O.B.A.A.series finals ( 2 each from Wayomacks and Penetang) the Stouffville nine suffered defeat at the hands of Peterborough by a score of 2-5 in the first of the home and home games with the city. The game was played on Saturday afternoon last before some 1500 spectators, including a quite a number of supporters who journeyed from Stouffville to see the game.
The return game will be played in Stouffville this week, and after seeing Saturday’s game we predict that Stouffville should come out victors in this game.
Earl Cook on the mound was effective against the seasoned Peterborough batters, and struck out 11 men, and that’s good enough to win the average game with any kind of field support. Earl didn’t get that support in the fifth innings, which lost the game for Stouffville.
We have it from the manager of the Peterborough nine that Earl Cook gave them the hardest battle they have had this season, and they have defeated such teams as Port Hope and Napanee. On the other hand Scotty Maudsley for the home brews gave Mather’s nine a good argument.
Stouffville got away to a good start when H. Nichols thew high on a grounder batted by Earl Glendenning and he made second. Button struck out, and Reesor popped to Maudsley. H. Cook singled to right and Glendenning scored on the hit. Meredith singled to right and made first. M. Glendenning fanned.
For the Petes Hillier looped the ball over first and made the base, Rogers grounded to second forcing Hillier. Maudsley grounded to first, and Cook threw to second, but Meredith dropped the pill. Rogers finally counted when H. Cook threw from first to third in bad style. Next up threw out on fouls and one fan. Score 1-1.
The second and third innings were shut-outs on both sides.
Beginning the fourth Stouffville counted again and took the lead. Hillier at short allowed Meredith’s grounder to go through, but took Scully’s throw to force the runner, following Glendenning’s grounder. Glendenning was in turn forced by Pete Glendenning by the same pair. Scully dropped a nice peg and let the runner to second. After fielding McPhaden’s drive to field, Hillier threw wild to Barry and Glendenning scored home. Maudsley threw out Cook to end the play.
The Petes were shut out in the end of the fourth and Stouffville received same treatment in the first of the fifth.
Stouffville had a bad lapse in the Petes fifth, and they allowed the costly four runs H. Cook at first failed to hold throw from the pitching block, and allowed Hillier safe on first. Rogers slapped one into left field, sending Hillier to third. Maudsley popped to short, but on Moore’s grounder Meredith fumbled the ball allowing Hillier to score. Scully sent a long sacrifice to right field, scoring Rogers. Nichols drove one at first and made it safe on it too, while Moore made it home. Reesor who tried to stem a man going to second threw the pill into centre field and another run counted. Cook fanned the next man up and retired the side.
Both teams were shut out in the remaining innings. Stouffville broke away however in the seventh, and made things mighty anxious for the Petes. Pete Glendenning got a base when he slammed the ball at Maudsley’s shin hard, McFadden grounder hopped through Scully’s legs. Two on and nobody out. E. Cook grounded to Maudsley, who pegged to third and cut off Glendenning. Harold Glendenning fanned, and Button loaded the bases with a single to centre. All three runners were making to home when Max Reesor stepped to the bat only to drive a grounder to first and the side was retired.

MARKHAM VICTORS OVER WILLOWDALE
Two goals in the first period gave Markham Intermediates a 2 to 0 victory over Willowdale on Monday night at Maple Leaf Gardens and also gave them the O.H.A., play-of round by 4 to 3. In the first game at Markham the homesters were beaten by 3 to 2.
Monday night’s tussle was a thrilling affair throughout, both teams displaying plenty os speed and aggressiveness. Rennie was the initial scorer and his tally came as the result of a combination dash with Stewart, a defencman.
Hare, an alternate forward, accounted for the other goal of the game when he took Reesor’s pass to the goalmouth and rammed it past Carey, who had practically no chance to save.
While these counters were the only goals of the game, the players in no way slackened. Lunau in Markham’s goal had a busy evening and it was his fine work that held his mates’ lead intact.
In addition to winning their own district, Markham has the North Toronto championship to their credit.

LOCAL TEAM WIN PRIZE AT BEETON
The local club have yet to taste defeat as they took their second league game of the season from Uxbridge on Wednesday last by a score of 16-2. Hodgins pitched a fine game throughout and allowed only a few scattered hits.
The Club added still further to their laurels on Monday when they entered the tournament at Beeton and carried home a handsome cash award as the first prize. In their opening game they defeated Bond Head by a score of 9-0. Alliston who were the second opponents proved a little tougher, the game going to 13 innings when the locals finally squeezed out a 2-1 game. In the final chapter they came up against Palgrave and were again winners. Jack Pennock proved to be the hero of the hour pitching wonderful ball throughout the first two games. In the game against Alliston only nine men faced him in the 4th, 5th, and 6th innings. Bill Clark took the mound in the lat game and proved quite effective.

LOCALS LOSE TO SUNDERLAND
The local pitchers were pounded freely in their game with Sunderland on Wednesday last, the northerners slamming out nine off Pennock and five from Clendenning who took the mound for the last two innings. Sunderland started the game rolling with two hits coupled with an error they scored twice. The locals retaliated with one on the third but failed to count further until the ninth when they managed to squeeze in one on hits by Boadway and Clendenning. Sunderland tallied twice in the fourth, four times in the seventh and twice in the ninth, Allen leading the way at bat.

STOUFFVILLE TIES BEAVERTON
On Friday last the local nine played their tightest league game in the season so far when they squeezed out a one all tie with Beaverton. Beaverton scored their run in the first innings when with two out they slammed a single which coupled with errors by Clendenning and Cook netted them their lone tally. In the fifth with two out Pennock got a single over second. Boadway also singled sending him to third while Button drove hard over short to bring in the tying run.
The game was called at the beginning of the eighth on account of rain with both teams still struggling for that winning counter. Pennock did a good job for the locals allowing but one hit and striking out nine in the seven innings.

STOUFFVILLE WINS HOLIDAY GAME
On Wednesday last Stouffville took a fall out of Sutton to the tune of 5-4. The game was very close as the score would indicate both teams putting forth all they had.
Stouffville took first blood in the third when Reesor and Boadway walked in succession, to cross the plate on hits by Button and Cook. Sutton retaliated in the fourth when Cuverwell clouted one over short, Hamilton was out at first, McKenzie walked and Pearson sent a long fly out to Holden which he missed, letting two runs. Carpenter also hit safe to make it three and put the visitors one up. The locals tied it up in the fifth, Reesor walked, Boadway flied out, Button hit over third and Cook hit over second. Reesor tried to stretch it for two bases and was out at the plate. With two out Clendenning hit into deep centre bringing Button in to tie up the game. Stouffville made sure in the seventh when they added two more. Sutton had men on in each of the final innings but just failed to bring them home.
Reg. Button recorded four its in five times at bat which is an exceptionally good record, while Reesor walked four times in five trips to the plate, Pennock had ten strike-outs while Smith and Walker the two Sutton twirlers only counted three between them.

Sutton 8 4 2

The locals made it two straight on the holiday when they defeated Port Perry by the score of 4-2. Stouffville scored all their runs in the second innings. Reesor the first man up was out on a ground ball to the pitcher; Hood hit, Holden walked and Pennock went down on an error, scoring Hood and Holden, Boadway walked and Lou Lehman clipped out a double to score two more runs. Hodgins and Cook struck out to retire the side. Port Perry scored one in the sixth on a hit by Dishan and one in the eighth on a hit by McMillan.
Stouffville was very very fortunate in having the Lehman brothers return to the line-up and it is hoped that that they may be seen in action a good deal from now on. Pennock turned in a fine performance on the mound for the locals, striking out 14 men and allowing but three hits.

LOCALS DROP GAME WITH SUNDERLAND
On Wednesday last Stouffville succumbed to an 8-5 defeat at the hands of Sunderland to tie these two teams for first place in the O.B.A. league. Although the local nine took the field with the greatest of confidence the visitors appeared to have the edge from the start. Stouffville made a good start in the second when Clark and clendenning hit safely. Reesor walked and Pennock went down on an error to start off with three runs. This lead was short lived however as the northerners took Pennock for four hits in the third which netted them five runs before the side was retired.
Stouffville scored their final two runs in their half of the third on hits by Cook and Button. Sunderland scored again in the fourth and twice in the eighth to put them in front by three runs. Pennock was relieved in the sixth by B. Lehman who also had some difficulty in stemming the hard-hitting visitors. Junkin replaced Fair for the visitors and had the local sluggers completely stumped.
Keslick umpired the game.
Stouffville had several good chances in the seventh and eighth innings to tie the score, but they faded away hen a couple of poor plays retired the side. A snappy double play by Button and Boadway showed to good advantage in the seventh.

STOUFFVILLE LOSES CLOSE PLAY-OFF GAME
On Monday afternoon Stouffville entered in the O.B.A. play-downs series with Sunderland and dropped the first game by a score of 2-1. It would appear that the Sunderland aggregation are the jinx for the locals, since they have not been able to force a win against this team all season.
The afternoon promised well for Stouffville right in the first innings when Clark the first man up lined a double well over second. He was sacrificed to third by Button and crossed the plate on a ball hit by Pennock, which slipped right past the Sunderland third baseman. The locals held well until the fourth innings. Lehman striking out four men in the first three innings. In the fourth Brandon, the first man up, was out at first. Allen poked a hard ground ball down between third and short which was mossed. Philips got the northerners first hit and made it count for a double well out over Pennock’s head in left field. Allen scored and Philips scored on a hit by McGill the next man up. Johnston and Oliver were thrown out at first to retire the side.
Stouffville had one big chance to tie it up in the seventh after two men were out but with men on first and third, Junkins was successful in striking out Button to retire the side. Both pitchers turned in splendid efforts. Sunderland getting only four hits off Lehman and seven off Junkin.

LOCALS DROP OUT
On Wednesday last Stouffville bowed to defeat to Sutton to give the northern town a two out of three decision and the right to meet Sunderland for the York-Ontario League Championship. Sutton took command from the start and were only once in very serious danger of losing their lead. Doug. Bradd on the mound for Stouffville in his third play-off game gave a stellar performance until the fifth when he weakened and was replaced by Bruce Lehman who held the winners in hand until the end. Bradd struck out eight in his five innings. Sutton combined air-tight fielding and a few well placed hits o win the game by a score of 10 to 5. Heron did the twirling for Sutton until the seventh when he was replaced by Doc. Leroy, Stouffville proved very weak at the bat something unusual for them when playing Sutton while several bad errors allowed the opposition to mount a considerable score before the locals could get going.
A fine turn out from Stouffville gave the boys good rooting support.

200 PHEASANTS ARE RELEASED
Markham Township bids fair to become an ideal game sanctuary before long. Last week the government (Dept. of Games and Fisheries) released in the municipality some 200 hundred pheasants which when unmolested will add to their numbers over a year or two in a amazing manner.
Simultaneous with the releasing of these birds 500 signs arrived to be posted about the municipality apprising hunters that the township is a game preserve, and carrying of fire-arms or hunting within its borders is forbidden. The township has had additional signs made on their own order of a larger design and these will also be place in conspicuous places, so that there will be no excuse for anyone to plead ignorance of the law.
Some fifty game wardens have been named for the municipality, whose business it will be to see that the township is protected from hunters. With so many wardens charged with this duty, it is hard to see how anyone will successfully fire a gun in the municipality without one of them hearing it.

HUNTERS RETURN WITH VARYING LUCK
The open season for deer hunting closed on Saturday and this was the signal for the return of the local hunters after two weeks or there about in the northern woods. Only moderate success was met with during the hunting time, although it was not the scarcity of deer which caused the poor luck. Bill Sanders and Robert Snowball admit to seeing plenty of the fleet-footed animals, but they didn’t have the luck to shoot straight. Bob can give a close shave, but he couldn’t so much as trim a hair off a deer. These two locals travelled with the Markham Hunt Club which all told only bagged half of their allotment.
Sixteen men in the party with which William Reesor tramped the northern woods came back with eleven deer.

LIVE SKUNKS AND SKUNK HIDES
Presenting what was purported to be a game warden’s badge, two Other men succeeded in inducing Bob Overs of Ballantrae to hand over a bundle of skunk hides. The man who impersonated an officer of the law contended that Bob had taken the skunks “out of season” or something of that sort, and he would have to confiscate them until the matter came up in a court hearing.
Bob, so Constable Windsor reports, became suspicious and while handing over to the tricksters, he took the number of their car license. The plated were later found to have been stolen from an Oldsmobile in Goderich and attached to an old Star which the live “skunks” were driving.
All other people should be warned by this experience, as it is more than likely the trick will be tried more than once.

HUNTERS FINED FOR POACHING IN MARKHAM
The first fine to be registered under the new Games Protection Act recently invoked in the Township of Markham was made this week when Magistrate Keith in the county court imposed $10 and costs on four hunters picked up in the municipality by Deputy Game Warden Stiver and Harper.
The hunters, were carrying fire arms, and were on a shooting expedition when the officers got them. They had no license for the guns or for shooting rabbits in the municipality were forced to pay $20 each to cover the cost of the court.
It has been said that the recently enacted game law for Markham Township would never be obeyed and that it lacked “teeth”. Well, there are now four Toronto men who will not agree with this for they felt the “teeth”and their pocket books have felt a drain, no doubt.

STOUFFVILLE TROUNCE MARKHAM 7-2 IN OPENING JUNIOR TILT
Carrying the play to the visitors for the full sixty minutes, Stouffville Gave Markham a 7-2 lacing in the opening Junior O.H.A. game here on Monday night.
The locals outplayed and out skated the southern aggregation in every period, and showed considerable class, thanks to the careful training of Coach Crouch.
The first period saw Markham bottled up in their own end most of the time and only the stellar net minding of Patterson kept Stouffville from breaking into their scoring bee earlier. With only five minutes remaining, Bus Taylor, right defence for Stouffville, pushed one into the net from a scramble just in front of the crease, to open the scoring. Penalties in this period were equally divided, two going to each team.
The second twenty minutes was just nicely underway when Ken. Rusnell for Stouffville took a pass at the blue line and sailed in on the left wing to slip a fast one into the far corner of the Markham net. “Jake” Baker made it 3-0 a few minutes later on a nice solo effort. Markham came back swinging which landed them two penalties in rapid succession. Ernie Lawrie, star centre for the visitors finally nicked the twine on a close in shot. This new hoe was short-lived however as “Red” Brillinger stick-handled his way in from the right side to beat Patterson and put his team three up once more.
Stouffville continued to bear down in the last period and after nine minutes of play “Red” drilled another fast one to the upper corner of the net. Ken Rusnell drew a penalty for boarding Lamoreaux but before Markham could capitalize on their advantage, Lamoreaux himself took he hail from Referee Reesor, and Rusnell returned to the ice, to again put the local squad at full strength. With six minutes to play Brillinger broke fast with his wings at his own blue line, took a pass from Austin, side-stepped the defence, and lifted in his third goal of the game. Markham threw four en forward in an effort to cut down the lead, only to have Joe Austin count again on a pass from Russell to make it 7-1. Taylor went to the cooler for tripping, and Ross Lamoreaux, giving Holden no chance to save, slipped in the final counter for Markham, which ended the game 7-2.
Markham seemed completely disorganize at times and were unable to cope with Stouffville’s constant back-checking and fast breaking.
As stars for the visitors we pick centre player Lawrie, and goalie Patterson, and for the home club, right winger “Red” Brillinger and defence man, Bus Taylor.
Penalties were nine, four for Stouffville and five for Markham.

STOUFFVILLE TO MEET AURORA IN FIRST ROUND OF FINALS
Dropping their last game to Scarboro Friday night 7-6 has left Stouffville eligible to meet Aurora in the first round of the play-offs. Home and home games are scheduled for this Wednesday and Friday, goals to count on the round. Although Aurora have beaten the home team in the two league games, it was only by the narrowest of margins, the break definitely accounting for the wins. It is hoped a large representation may be on hand to journey to Aurora on Friday night. Richmond Hill, who tied with Scarboro for fourth place, managed to nose out that outfit on Tuesday in a sudden death game which leaves them ready to meet East York Friday night in their first of home and home games.
Stouffville made a whirl-wind come-back in Agincourt Friday night and all but took the game with Scarboro right out of their lap, having been down 6-0. Scarboro closed the first twenty minutes 2-0. The locals just a little overdid their covering-up and bunching around their own net blocked the view of Charlie Hoover who was given no chance to save on either shot. The second round saw Scarboro just as aggressive as ever, and considerable bungling again by the locals let the count rise four more notches, to 6-0.
Incidentally the locals were short-handed as Bus Taylor was absent from the defence, and this caused considerable shaking up of the lines from time to time. The final period Coach Crouch did get his clicking combination together and they sure went to town, netting six in less than ten minutes, to tie it up. Vic Riddell scored the first two, single handed, while “Red” Brillinger showed real flash of his old form when he banged in four in a row, all on assists from Riddell.
But even this great display of goal getting failed to save the boys from defeat when with only a minute and a half to go Scarboro squeezed in the winning counter on a ganging attack.
There were five penalties , two to Stouffville, Riddell and Harper, and three to Scarboro.one of them being a major. Referee Balyes of Markham officiated.

Owing to wet weather the return game in the O.B.A.A. play-down with Peterborough is postponed form Wednesday to Saturday, Sept. 15th at Memorial Park, Stouffville, at 3 p.m.
If Stouffville wins this game they will be tied with Peterborough and the winners will meet either Leamington or Niagara Falls for the Provincial championship O.B.A.A.
The locals deserve the support of a big crowd of fans.
Mr. and Mrs S.W. Hastings took in the ball game at Peterborough Saturday spending the weekend with the relatives there. PETERBOROUGH WINS A CLOSE GAME
After winning four straight games in the Intermediate O.B.A.A.series finals ( 2 each from Wayomacks and Penetang) the Stouffville nine suffered defeat at the hands of Peterborough by a score of 2-5 in the first of the home and home games with the city. The game was played on Saturday afternoon last before some 1500 spectators, including a quite a number of supporters who journeyed from Stouffville to see the game.
The return game will be played in Stouffville this week, and after seeing Saturday’s game we predict that Stouffville should come out victors in this game.
Earl Cook on the mound was effective against the seasoned Peterborough batters, and struck out 11 men, and that’s good enough to win the average game with any kind of field support. Earl didn’t get that support in the fifth innings, which lost the game for Stouffville.
We have it from the manager of the Peterborough nine that Earl Cook gave them the hardest battle they have had this season, and they have defeated such teams as Port Hope and Napanee. On the other hand Scotty Maudsley for the home brews gave Mather’s nine a good argument.
Stouffville got away to a good start when H. Nichols thew high on a grounder batted by Earl Glendenning and he made second. Button struck out, and Reesor popped to Maudsley. H. Cook singled to right and Glendenning scored on the hit. Meredith singled to right and made first. M. Glendenning fanned.
For the Petes Hillier looped the ball over first and made the base, Rogers grounded to second forcing Hillier. Maudsley grounded to first, and Cook threw to second, but Meredith dropped the pill. Rogers finally counted when H. Cook threw from first to third in bad style. Next up threw out on fouls and one fan. Score 1-1.
The second and third innings were shut-outs on both sides.
Beginning the fourth Stouffville counted again and took the lead. Hillier at short allowed Meredith’s grounder to go through, but took Scully’s throw to force the runner, following Glendenning’s grounder. Glendenning was in turn forced by Pete Glendenning by the same pair. Scully dropped a nice peg and let the runner to second. After fielding McPhaden’s drive to field, Hillier threw wild to Barry and Glendenning scored home. Maudsley threw out Cook to end the play.
The Petes were shut out in the end of the fourth and Stouffville received same treatment in the first of the fifth.
Stouffville had a bad lapse in the Petes fifth, and they allowed the costly four runs H. Cook at first failed to hold throw from the pitching block, and allowed Hillier safe on first. Rogers slapped one into left field, sending Hillier to third. Maudsley popped to short, but on Moore’s grounder Meredith fumbled the ball allowing Hillier to score. Scully sent a long sacrifice to right field, scoring Rogers. Nichols drove one at first and made it safe on it too, while Moore made it home. Reesor who tried to stem a man going to second threw the pill into centre field and another run counted. Cook fanned the next man up and retired the side.
Both teams were shut out in the remaining innings. Stouffville broke away however in the seventh, and made things mighty anxious for the Petes. Pete Glendenning got a base when he slammed the ball at Maudsley’s shin hard, McFadden grounder hopped through Scully’s legs. Two on and nobody out. E. Cook grounded to Maudsley, who pegged to third and cut off Glendenning. Harold Glendenning fanned, and Button loaded the bases with a single to centre. All three runners were making to home when Max Reesor stepped to the bat only to drive a grounder to first and the side was retired.

MARKHAM VICTORS OVER WILLOWDALE
Two goals in the first period gave Markham Intermediates a 2 to 0 victory over Willowdale on Monday night at Maple Leaf Gardens and also gave them the O.H.A., play-of round by 4 to 3. In the first game at Markham the homesters were beaten by 3 to 2.
Monday night’s tussle was a thrilling affair throughout, both teams displaying plenty os speed and aggressiveness. Rennie was the initial scorer and his tally came as the result of a combination dash with Stewart, a defencman.
Hare, an alternate forward, accounted for the other goal of the game when he took Reesor’s pass to the goalmouth and rammed it past Carey, who had practically no chance to save.
While these counters were the only goals of the game, the players in no way slackened. Lunau in Markham’s goal had a busy evening and it was his fine work that held his mates’ lead intact.
In addition to winning their own district, Markham has the North Toronto championship to their credit.
Markham — Goal, Lunau; defence, Reesor and Stewart; centre, Crosby; wings, Prentice and Glendenning; subs Hare, Hagerman, Rennie and Hugh Crosby.

LOCAL TEAM WIN PRIZE AT BEETON
The local club have yet to taste defeat as they took their second league game of the season from Uxbridge on Wednesday last by a score of 16-2. Hodgins pitched a fine game throughout and allowed only a few scattered hits.
The Club added still further to their laurels on Monday when they entered the tournament at Beeton and carried home a handsome cash award as the first prize. In their opening game they defeated Bond Head by a score of 9-0. Alliston who were the second opponents proved a little tougher, the game going to 13 innings when the locals finally squeezed out a 2-1 game. In the final chapter they came up against Palgrave and were again winners. Jack Pennock proved to be the hero of the hour pitching wonderful ball throughout the first two games. In the game against Alliston only nine men faced him in the 4th, 5th, and 6th innings. Bill Clark took the mound in the lat game and proved quite effective.
Next O.B.A. game Beaverton at Stouffville, Wednesday, June 12.

LOCALS LOSE TO SUNDERLAND
The local pitchers were pounded freely in their game with Sunderland on Wednesday last, the northerners slamming out nine off Pennock and five from Clendenning who took the mound for the last two innings. Sunderland started the game rolling with two hits coupled with an error they scored twice. The locals retaliated with one on the third but failed to count further until the ninth when they managed to squeeze in one on hits by Boadway and Clendenning. Sunderland tallied twice in the fourth, four times in the seventh and twice in the ninth, Allen leading the way at bat.

STOUFFVILLE TIES BEAVERTON
On Friday last the local nine played their tightest league game in the season so far when they squeezed out a one all tie with Beaverton. Beaverton scored their run in the first innings when with two out they slammed a single which coupled with errors by Clendenning and Cook netted them their lone tally. In the fifth with two out Pennock got a single over second. Boadway also singled sending him to third while Button drove hard over short to bring in the tying run.
The game was called at the beginning of the eighth on account of rain with both teams still struggling for that winning counter. Pennock did a good job for the locals allowing but one hit and striking out nine in the seven innings.

STOUFFVILLE WINS HOLIDAY GAME
On Wednesday last Stouffville took a fall out of Sutton to the tune of 5-4. The game was very close as the score would indicate both teams putting forth all they had.
Stouffville took first blood in the third when Reesor and Boadway walked in succession, to cross the plate on hits by Button and Cook. Sutton retaliated in the fourth when Cuverwell clouted one over short, Hamilton was out at first, McKenzie walked and Pearson sent a long fly out to Holden which he missed, letting two runs. Carpenter also hit safe to make it three and put the visitors one up. The locals tied it up in the fifth, Reesor walked, Boadway flied out, Button hit over third and Cook hit over second. Reesor tried to stretch it for two bases and was out at the plate. With two out Clendenning hit into deep centre bringing Button in to tie up the game. Stouffville made sure in the seventh when they added two more. Sutton had men on in each of the final innings but just failed to bring them home.
Reg. Button recorded four its in five times at bat which is an exceptionally good record, while Reesor walked four times in five trips to the plate, Pennock had ten strike-outs while Smith and Walker the two Sutton twirlers only counted three between them.
Hits Runs Errors
Sutton 8 4 2
Stouffville 12 5 2
Stouffville 4, Port Perry 2
The locals made it two straight on the holiday when they defeated Port Perry by the score of 4-2. Stouffville scored all their runs in the second innings. Reesor the first man up was out on a ground ball to the pitcher; Hood hit, Holden walked and Pennock went down on an error, scoring Hood and Holden, Boadway walked and Lou Lehman clipped out a double to score two more runs. Hodgins and Cook struck out to retire the side. Port Perry scored one in the sixth on a hit by Dishan and one in the eighth on a hit by McMillan.
Stouffville was very very fortunate in having the Lehman brothers return to the line-up and it is hoped that that they may be seen in action a good deal from now on. Pennock turned in a fine performance on the mound for the locals, striking out 14 men and allowing but three hits.

LOCALS DROP GAME WITH SUNDERLAND
On Wednesday last Stouffville succumbed to an 8-5 defeat at the hands of Sunderland to tie these two teams for first place in the O.B.A. league. Although the local nine took the field with the greatest of confidence the visitors appeared to have the edge from the start. Stouffville made a good start in the second when Clark and clendenning hit safely. Reesor walked and Pennock went down on an error to start off with three runs. This lead was short lived however as the northerners took Pennock for four hits in the third which netted them five runs before the side was retired.
Stouffville scored their final two runs in their half of the third on hits by Cook and Button. Sunderland scored again in the fourth and twice in the eighth to put them in front by three runs. Pennock was relieved in the sixth by B. Lehman who also had some difficulty in stemming the hard-hitting visitors. Junkin replaced Fair for the visitors and had the local sluggers completely stumped.
Keslick umpired the game.
Stouffville had several good chances in the seventh and eighth innings to tie the score, but they faded away hen a couple of poor plays retired the side. A snappy double play by Button and Boadway showed to good advantage in the seventh.

STOUFFVILLE LOSES CLOSE PLAY-OFF GAME
On Monday afternoon Stouffville entered in the O.B.A. play-downs series with Sunderland and dropped the first game by a score of 2-1. It would appear that the Sunderland aggregation are the jinx for the locals, since they have not been able to force a win against this team all season.
The afternoon promised well for Stouffville right in the first innings when Clark the first man up lined a double well over second. He was sacrificed to third by Button and crossed the plate on a ball hit by Pennock, which slipped right past the Sunderland third baseman. The locals held well until the fourth innings. Lehman striking out four men in the first three innings. In the fourth Brandon, the first man up, was out at first. Allen poked a hard ground ball down between third and short which was mossed. Philips got the northerners first hit and made it count for a double well out over Pennock’s head in left field. Allen scored and Philips scored on a hit by McGill the next man up. Johnston and Oliver were thrown out at first to retire the side.
Stouffville had one big chance to tie it up in the seventh after two men were out but with men on first and third, Junkins was successful in striking out Button to retire the side. Both pitchers turned in splendid efforts. Sunderland getting only four hits off Lehman and seven off Junkin.

LOCALS DROP OUT
On Wednesday last Stouffville bowed to defeat to Sutton to give the northern town a two out of three decision and the right to meet Sunderland for the York-Ontario League Championship. Sutton took command from the start and were only once in very serious danger of losing their lead. Doug. Bradd on the mound for Stouffville in his third play-off game gave a stellar performance until the fifth when he weakened and was replaced by Bruce Lehman who held the winners in hand until the end. Bradd struck out eight in his five innings. Sutton combined air-tight fielding and a few well placed hits o win the game by a score of 10 to 5. Heron did the twirling for Sutton until the seventh when he was replaced by Doc. Leroy, Stouffville proved very weak at the bat something unusual for them when playing Sutton while several bad errors allowed the opposition to mount a considerable score before the locals could get going.
A fine turn out from Stouffville gave the boys good rooting support.

FIRST LOCAL O.B.A. GAME – SATURDAY
Having drawn a bye in the O.B.A. series for the local district, Stouffville will now swing into action to meet Sunderland this Wednesday afternoon, with a return game at Stouffville next Saturday at 3 o’clock standard. The locals have been playing exhibition ball all summer and are in good condition to meet the preppy Brock boys who have shown themselves among the best in the province in past seasons. Stouffville and Sunderland have been ordered to play off, best four out of seven, the winners to have the right to enter the O.B.A. finals.
Aside from enjoying some good wholesome entertainment, the ball club will appreciate your financial support the Saturday after noon. Let’s all plan to be there.

200 PHEASANTS ARE RELEASED
Markham Township bids fair to become an ideal game sanctuary before long. Last week the government (Dept. of Games and Fisheries) released in the municipality some 200 hundred pheasants which when unmolested will add to their numbers over a year or two in a amazing manner.
Simultaneous with the releasing of these birds 500 signs arrived to be posted about the municipality apprising hunters that the township is a game preserve, and carrying of fire-arms or hunting within its borders is forbidden. The township has had additional signs made on their own order of a larger design and these will also be place in conspicuous places, so that there will be no excuse for anyone to plead ignorance of the law.
Some fifty game wardens have been named for the municipality, whose business it will be to see that the township is protected from hunters. With so many wardens charged with this duty, it is hard to see how anyone will successfully fire a gun in the municipality without one of them hearing it.

Hooper seized the guns, ammunition and licenses from the poachers who will later be subject to court discipline.
The poachers were all Toronto residents and held licenses to shoot pheasants on the two open days of this week.

HUNTERS RETURN WITH VARYING LUCK
The open season for deer hunting closed on Saturday and this was the signal for the return of the local hunters after two weeks or there about in the northern woods. Only moderate success was met with during the hunting time, although it was not the scarcity of deer which caused the poor luck. Bill Sanders and Robert Snowball admit to seeing plenty of the fleet-footed animals, but they didn’t have the luck to shoot straight. Bob can give a close shave, but he couldn’t so much as trim a hair off a deer. These two locals travelled with the Markham Hunt Club which all told only bagged half of their allotment.
Sixteen men in the party with which William Reesor tramped the northern woods came back with eleven deer.

LIVE SKUNKS AND SKUNK HIDES
Presenting what was purported to be a game warden’s badge, two Other men succeeded in inducing Bob Overs of Ballantrae to hand over a bundle of skunk hides. The man who impersonated an officer of the law contended that Bob had taken the skunks “out of season” or something of that sort, and he would have to confiscate them until the matter came up in a court hearing.
Bob, so Constable Windsor reports, became suspicious and while handing over to the tricksters, he took the number of their car license. The plated were later found to have been stolen from an Oldsmobile in Goderich and attached to an old Star which the live “skunks” were driving.
All other people should be warned by this experience, as it is more than likely the trick will be tried more than once.

HUNTERS FINED FOR POACHING IN MARKHAM
The first fine to be registered under the new Games Protection Act recently invoked in the Township of Markham was made this week when Magistrate Keith in the county court imposed $10 and costs on four hunters picked up in the municipality by Deputy Game Warden Stiver and Harper.
The hunters, were carrying fire arms, and were on a shooting expedition when the officers got them. They had no license for the guns or for shooting rabbits in the municipality were forced to pay $20 each to cover the cost of the court.
It has been said that the recently enacted game law for Markham Township would never be obeyed and that it lacked “teeth”. Well, there are now four Toronto men who will not agree with this for they felt the “teeth”and their pocket books have felt a drain, no doubt.

STOUFFVILLE TROUNCE MARKHAM 7-2 IN OPENING JUNIOR TILT
Carrying the play to the visitors for the full sixty minutes, Stouffville Gave Markham a 7-2 lacing in the opening Junior O.H.A. game here on Monday night.
The locals outplayed and out skated the southern aggregation in every period, and showed considerable class, thanks to the careful training of Coach Crouch.
The first period saw Markham bottled up in their own end most of the time and only the stellar net minding of Patterson kept Stouffville from breaking into their scoring bee earlier. With only five minutes remaining, Bus Taylor, right defence for Stouffville, pushed one into the net from a scramble just in front of the crease, to open the scoring. Penalties in this period were equally divided, two going to each team.
The second twenty minutes was just nicely underway when Ken. Rusnell for Stouffville took a pass at the blue line and sailed in on the left wing to slip a fast one into the far corner of the Markham net. “Jake” Baker made it 3-0 a few minutes later on a nice solo effort. Markham came back swinging which landed them two penalties in rapid succession. Ernie Lawrie, star centre for the visitors finally nicked the twine on a close in shot. This new hoe was short-lived however as “Red” Brillinger stick-handled his way in from the right side to beat Patterson and put his team three up once more.
Stouffville continued to bear down in the last period and after nine minutes of play “Red” drilled another fast one to the upper corner of the net. Ken Rusnell drew a penalty for boarding Lamoreaux but before Markham could capitalize on their advantage, Lamoreaux himself took he hail from Referee Reesor, and Rusnell returned to the ice, to again put the local squad at full strength. With six minutes to play Brillinger broke fast with his wings at his own blue line, took a pass from Austin, side-stepped the defence, and lifted in his third goal of the game. Markham threw four en forward in an effort to cut down the lead, only to have Joe Austin count again on a pass from Russell to make it 7-1. Taylor went to the cooler for tripping, and Ross Lamoreaux, giving Holden no chance to save, slipped in the final counter for Markham, which ended the game 7-2.
Markham seemed completely disorganize at times and were unable to cope with Stouffville’s constant back-checking and fast breaking.
As stars for the visitors we pick centre player Lawrie, and goalie Patterson, and for the home club, right winger “Red” Brillinger and defence man, Bus Taylor.
Penalties were nine, four for Stouffville and five for Markham.

STOUFFVILLE TO MEET AURORA IN FIRST ROUND OF FINALS
Dropping their last game to Scarboro Friday night 7-6 has left Stouffville eligible to meet Aurora in the first round of the play-offs. Home and home games are scheduled for this Wednesday and Friday, goals to count on the round. Although Aurora have beaten the home team in the two league games, it was only by the narrowest of margins, the break definitely accounting for the wins. It is hoped a large representation may be on hand to journey to Aurora on Friday night. Richmond Hill, who tied with Scarboro for fourth place, managed to nose out that outfit on Tuesday in a sudden death game which leaves them ready to meet East York Friday night in their first of home and home games.
Stouffville made a whirl-wind come-back in Agincourt Friday night and all but took the game with Scarboro right out of their lap, having been down 6-0. Scarboro closed the first twenty minutes 2-0. The locals just a little overdid their covering-up and bunching around their own net blocked the view of Charlie Hoover who was given no chance to save on either shot. The second round saw Scarboro just as aggressive as ever, and considerable bungling again by the locals let the count rise four more notches, to 6-0.
Incidentally the locals were short-handed as Bus Taylor was absent from the defence, and this caused considerable shaking up of the lines from time to time. The final period Coach Crouch did get his clicking combination together and they sure went to town, netting six in less than ten minutes, to tie it up. Vic Riddell scored the first two, single handed, while “Red” Brillinger showed real flash of his old form when he banged in four in a row, all on assists from Riddell.
But even this great display of goal getting failed to save the boys from defeat when with only a minute and a half to go Scarboro squeezed in the winning counter on a ganging attack.
There were five penalties , two to Stouffville, Riddell and Harper, and three to Scarboro.one of them being a major. Referee Balyes of Markham officiated.

STOUFFVILLE, UNIONVILLE MIDGETS BATTLE TO A 1-1 DRAW
In one of the best minor league games of the season, Stouffville and Unionville mid gets battled to a 1-1 draw on Monday evening. The game featured end to end rushes by forward lines of both clubs and only the excellent work of the netminders held the score down. Ron Mortimer, Midget sub goalie guarded the twine for the locals in place of the injured Roger Beazley. He turned in his finest effort of the season. Lynn McMullen put Stouffville out front at 3.05 of the first period on a pass from Grant Foreman. Two minutes later John Sanders evened the count. There was no scoring in the second and third periods. There were 11 penalties in the contest, seven to Unionville and four to Stouffville. George Malcolm of Stouffville and Joe Dukes of Unionville were banished with five minute majors, when they be came involved in a brief brawl. The remaining penalties were all for minor offences. NOBLETON WHIPE JUVS. 13-2, PENALTIES – 54 MINS.
A turkey-filled Stouffville Juvenile team were thumped 13-2 by a visiting Nobleton club on Thursday night in a North York League contest. Six players worked off some excess poundage in the final
frame when they became involved in a torrid ten minute brawl. When officials Spencer of Stouffville and Bill Maw of Nobleton finally separated the combatants, a total of two majors and two misconduct
penalties were meted out. Murray Holden and Howard Malcolm each served five minutes in the sin
bin for the local squad. Gord Sampson and Larry Hill were banished with majors for Nobleton. Emmerson, Nobleton netminder, received an automatic ten minute penalty for leaving his cage. Howard Malcolm had minutes tacked onto his for arguing too strenuously with the official.
In spite of the lopsided score , Stouffville held a temporary lead early in the first period. Larry Malloy and Ted Suzuki fired goals seconds apart to give homesters a 2-1 edge. The advantage was short-lived however, as the visitors rapped12 unanswered tallies in first and final frames. Larry Hill paced the Nobleton attack with six goals. Gord Sampson and Ollie Chamberlain each potted a pair. Singles came from the sticks of Lee Mollyneux,Paul Burbridge and Geo. Pilson. Both clubs played much of the third period with players in the cooler. Hardly had the four-man skirmish been settled when Stouffville
defenceman Don Benson and Nobleton’s Tom Hubbard tangled on the boards. Both received majors.
The Stouffville team completely fell apart in the third period. Goalie Bill Asling was given little or no protection and the Nobleton forwards sailed on top of him at will. Nine pucks were whipped into
the cage without a reply from Stouffville. The penalties to key Stouffville players put a serious crimp in their forward line strength. There was little to choose between the clubs. In the first and second periods, Nobleton held a 4-2 edge at the end of the first. Neither club found the target in the middle session.
Fifty-four minutes in penalties were handed out by the officials. This number could have been doubled if the referee had called every miscarriage of the rules. CLIPPERS STEAMROLLER CRUSHES ORANGEVILLE BY SCORE OF 15 TO 1
A Clipper steamroller piloted by Jack Watson crushed a rival Orangeville club 15-1 here on Friday night. The Stouffville squads victory was just as convincing as the score would indicate. They
swarmed over their opposition in every period and their relentless attack rapidly turned the contest into a one-sided rout. Nicholas Again St. Nicholas has gained a reputation for filling stockings with
presents at this time of year but Aurora’s Phil Nicholas delights in filling the oppositions nets full of pucks. For the Clippers second straight home encounter, the speedy forward paced the locals attack.
He fired four goals and picked up as many assists. Two other Aurora stars, Ted Vanderpol and Howard Bullock shared in the goalscoring spree. Vanderpol notched a three goal hat trick while linemate
Bullock potted a pair. Fire Four Although the ex-Auroraites shared the scoring spotlight with nine
tallies, three local lads also figured in the scoring. Harold Hodgson netted two with singles coming from the sticks of Bud Lehman and Jake Harman. Pickering’s Jim Cruikshank and Pete Lacey each scored once. Straight Time Stouffville held a 5-1 advantage at the end of the first period and increased their lead to 11-1. Following a suggestion from the Orangeville coach, referee Loring Doolittle gladly agreed to resort to straight time for the last period. In spite of the time cut, the Clipper marksman poured four more goals into the Orangeville cage. Little Energy Left It was a woefully weak or Orangeville club that struggled through the final twenty minutes of play. Snowed under by an avalanche of goals, the visitors
merely skated out the time. In spite of their rather listless effort, forward Don Hoare of Orangeville had enough energy left to engage Stouffville defenceman Ron Guy in a brief wrestling skirmish. They
were quickly parted by referee Doolittle and thumbed to their respective dressing rooms with 2 minute roughing penalties. Two Share Fate Orangeville used two netminders in an effort to hold off the
Stouffville attackers. Both share a similar fate. Hanna, the starter, was the victim of five tallies the initial period. Lawson, the sub goalie was beaten ten times. Clipper netminder Wilkins had a
rather easy between the pipes. He pulled off a number of good saves but was not overworked. Walter Rickey of Orangeville spoiled a shut out performance with his teams only goal at 17.29 of the first period. Wilmot Gates of the Clippers was serving an elbowing penalty at the time. There were sixteen penalties in the game, ten to Stouffville and six to Orangeville. HAYLOW BOLSTERS BUFFALO PEEWEES
A luckless Buffalo team received a much-needed shot in the arm on Monday evening when their lineup was bolstered with the addition of hard-shooting forward Francis Haylow. Haylow a regular with Bud
Lehman’s Canadiens turned in a fine performance for both clubs. Although the front-line star fired four goals and picked up one assist, buffalo failed to squeeze out a win. They were edged by Pittsburg 6-5. Wayne Crowder notched one tally. Haylow’s rival for the goal-scoring honours, Ross Brown netted four goals and assisted on one for the Hornets. Jim Hill potted a pair and picked up one assist.
Canadiens 6, Leafs 4 Billy Payne was a three goal marksman for Canadiens as they handed the
Leafs a 6-4 setback. He also assisted on two. Francis Haylow fired two tallies and David Winn netted one. Bill Corner and Kenny Aida counted a pair for the Leafs. GALBRAITH NETS HAT TRICK FOR RED WINGS
Arlan Galbraith is currently one of the top marksmen in the Lions Peewee League. Following a switch from the Hawks to the Red Wings, the speedy forward has been scoring goals regularly in every game. On Thursday afternoon he counted a three goal hat trick and picked up one assist as Detroit battled the first place Hawks to a 5-5 tie. It was the Black Hawks third straight tie game. The contest was a see-saw affair with first one club moving out front then the other taking the lead. Kirk Mortimer potted a pair of goals and assisted on another for a fine two-way performance. Tom Benson and Ted Redshaw continued to pace the Hawks attack. Each scored twice. Benson picked up an extra assist. Bill Lehman notched one tally. Bruins 2, Rangers 2 The other Peewee game also ended in a draw as the bruins and rangers battled to a 2-2 tie. Keith Betz, a former Black Hawk, fired both Boston goals. The Rangers goals were scored by Walter Taylor and Jim Mehaffey. Both were unassisted.

A five goal rally by Milton in the last period on Friday night fell short, as the Clippers squeezed out a tight 7-6 victory. Stouffville had built up a commanding 1 lead going into the final frame and held a 7-2 advantage at the halfway mark in the third period. As if by magic, the lead rapidly decreased within the space of eight minutes and at the bell the visitors were threatening to pull back on even terms. Strike Fast It took Stouffville only 30 seconds to post their first goal as defenceman Ron Guy blinked the light on passes from Phil Nicholas and Harold Hodgson. Seconds later Nicholas hit the target again for the
Clippers second tally. Bud Lehman and Ron Guy picked up assists on this goal. At 14.05 Pickering’s lanky Pete Lacey waltzed through the whole Milton club and parked the puck behind goalie Don Rose from an
almost impossible angle. The Clippers led 3-0 at the end of the period. Hit Head On One of the hardest checks of the night occurred in the second frame when Ron Guy and Phil Nicholas of the Clippers crashed inside the Stouffville blueline. The cause of the collision was Other to the majority of the spectators. Both Guy and Nicholas were attempting to halt a scoring bid when the accident happened. Guy’s forehead struck the ice and he was knocked unconscious. Nicholas also received a
nasty crack on the head. Guy was lifted bodily from the ice and carried to the Stouffville dressing room and a doctor was summoned to the rink. The injury was not considered to be too serious. Milton
netminder Don Rose was also injured in the second period and the game was held up for a few minutes. Although a stretcher was brought out on the ice it was not needed. Milton’s First
Pete Lacey notched his second goal of the game at the fifty-five second mark of the middle frame. He was set up by Phil Nicholas and Bud Lehman. Milton broke the ice at 3:10 as Ken Pollock, a hat trick
marksman, beat goalie Geo. Wilkins with a close-in shot. His tally was quickly nullified when defenceman Jim Cruikshank scored from Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman at the eleven minute mark.
Captain Hodgson, an usually mild-mannered performer clashed with his rival wingman in the closing minutes of the period when they jostled together in the corner. Referee Jack Shropshire allowed play to
continue. On the next rush however, the two wingers skated neck and neck into the Milton end zone. Hodgson’s timing was slightly off and he crashed into the exit door at top speed. The arena literally vibrated on its moorings. Hodgson was thumbed to the box with a boarding penalty. Immediately at the conclusion of his penalty, the Clipper captain picked up a loose puck and rifled it into the Milton cage to put stouffville out front 6-1. Tough Opponent There was only one outbreak of fisticuffs in the entire match. This occurred in the second period between Brush of Milton and Bud Lehman of the Clippers. The two players bumped together on the boards and the Milton player, unthinkingly let loose a gloved hand in the direction of Lehman’s chin. The Clipper forward immediately clamped a reverse chin lock on his opponent and felled him for the ten count. Both players were banished for five minutes. Big Rally The third period saw Milton stage a five goal rally and cut the
Stouffville lead down to a mere one goal. Ken Pollock and Art Melanson each potted a pair. John Patterson notched one. Harold Hodgson fired what proved to be the winning Stouffville tally.
Milton’s sixth goal was counted with their netminder, Don Rose sitting on the bench. Time ran out on them however,and they could not gain a split in the points. Clippers Best Jake Harman, Clipper forward who bounces up and down ice like a car with worn shock absorbers turned in a good game, although he failed score any goals. Harold Hodgson and Pete Lacey also played well. Ken Pollock was Milton’s best. MOOSE RACK AWARD GOES TO LOCAL HUNTER
Roy Heaton, Park St. Stouffville has been named the winner of the Toronto Daily Star’s moose rack competition. Although three entries in the contest measured more than five feet, Mr. Heaton’s 64 inch
spread topped all competitors. He has been presented with a big game rifle. The local hunter bagged the giant moose in the Gogama district of Northern Ontario on Oct. 15. The size was verified by G.R.
Armltage, conservation officer. All in all, over 17,300 hunters were interviewed and 5000 deer checked.
January 9 1958 (con’t) CLIPPERS HAND BRADFORD THEIR FIRST LOSE OF SEASON
Stouffville’s highflying Clippers stepped into Bradford on Saturday night and handed the undefeated Marshmen their initial setback of the current schedule. In a see-saw encounter Jack Watson’s squad came out on the top end of a 9-6 victory. The Stouffville win was an all-team effort with seven players figuring in the scoring. Mel Vale and Bud Lehman paced the Clipper attack, each potting a pair. Singles came from the sticks of Howard Bullock, Ted Vanderpol, Wilmot Gates, Harold Hodgson and Phil Nicholas. The trio of Bud Lehman, Harold Hodgson and Phil Nicholas turned in a star-studded
performance counting four of the team’s nine tallies. On the power play attack, Coach Watson moved hard-firing Harold Hodgson back on defence and inserted Pete Lacey up on the line. The combination paid off in goals. The game was only seconds old when Bradford jumped into 2-0 lead. In equally prompt action the Clippers bounced back to even the score at 2-2. On two occasions the lead changed hands before Stouffville broke out front to stay in final frame. Bradford’s Don “Spider” Gibson was the game’s only casualty. He suffered an injured back and had to be carried from the ice. Russ Forfar, the Clipper’s steady rearguard became involved in a mid-game brawl. The bout ended as quickly as it started when the local defenceman floored his opponent with comparative ease. MACMILLAN BROS. LEAD MIDGETS TO 6-1 WIN
The McMullen brother, Lynn and Larry, paced the Stouffville Midget club to another winner on Monday night, as the local squad downed Woodbridge 6-1. The East End twins figured in five of the team’s six
tallies. Larry McMullen fired two goals and picked up one assist while brother Lynn netted one arid assisted on another. Ron Stewart potted a pair for the winners. Allan Boyd collected one. Norm Troyer fired the lone Woodbridge goal. Stouffville held a 5-0 lead before Woodbridge broke the ice at 11:40
of the final frame. Larry McMullen and Ron Stewart blinked the light in the opening session. Stewart
notched his second goal at the four minute mark of the second period and Lynn McMullen made it 4-0 on a pass from Geo. Malcolm. At 3:45 of the third period, Allan Boyd clicked for his tally midway
through the frame. Woodbridge spoiled Roger Beazley’s shutout attempt with an unassisted goal. At 12:40, Larry McMullen teamed up with linemate Grant Foreman for Stouffville’s sixth and final tally.
There were only three penalties in the cleanly played contest. Jeff Orr of Woodbridge was thumbed to the box with a pair of tripping penalties. Roger Stover spent two minutes in the box for the homesters. JUVENILES LOSE 4-1 TUSSLE TO THORNHILL
A visiting Thornhill Juvenile team struck for a pair of goals in each of the second and third periods to register a 4-1 win over Stouffville on Thursday night. Both clubs turned in a freewheeling exhibition.
The pace appeared to be too much for the local squad and they faded noticeably in the latter stages of the contest. Coach Bob Bangay kept the players’ box gate swinging constantly in the final frame as his
leg-weary proteges staggered in for relief. Icing only eight men for the early stages of the game, Stouffville managed to hold the opposition at bay in the opening period. Thornhill struck for a pair of goals in the second and out-scored the homesters 2-1 in the third period. Doug Raymer potted a pair for the Yonge street crew while Garry Stamp and “Whitey” Edwards fired singles. Murray Holden netted the lone Stouffville tally. Stouffville had numerous wide-open chances to close the scoring gap but inaccurate marksmanship around the Thornhill net allowed the opposition to maintain their lead. Forwards Howard Malcolm and Dean Evans had excellent opportunities to blink the light in the final
frame but both missed with their shots. Earl Thompson also found himself alone inside the Thornhill blueline when Malcolm set him up with a perfect pass but the disk slipped off his stick and caromed
harmlessly into the corner. Larry Malloy centering a line with Ronnie Jones and Ted Suzuki was one of the locals’ best although he failed to score. He tested the Thornhill goal guardian with a number of
labelled shots. Thornhill held a 3-0 lead before Stouffville counted their one and only goal. Gord Eckardt trapped the puck inside the Thornhill blueline and fed Lorne Disney a pass near the net . He relayed the disk to Murray Holden who whipped it around the post into the corner. Thornhill sewed up the tilt with their fourth and final goal at 11:38. Ted Suzuki, a three-penalty player, clashed with Thornhill player
Richard Charles near the boards in the last period both were banished with majors. Bud Lehman, Stouffville’s referee, waded between the combatants and quickly broke the skirmish. Charles of Thornhill was pegged with a misconduct when he protested the penalty too strenuously. He was sent for an early shower. There were seven penalties in the contest, four to Stouffville and three to Thornhill. REDSHAW TOP PEEWEE SCORER
Ted Redshaw, brother of the Brooklin hockeyist, Wayne Redshaw is currently setting the pace in the Lions Peewee League with a total of 20 goals and 4 assists. The front line centre star leads linemate Tom

HOME-RUN CLOUT BY SCHELL DEFEATS AURORA 10-9
Trailing by one run at the final bat, Stouffville Juniors romped to victory over Aurora 10-9, on the mighty clout of Lorne Schell, who drove the ball deep into the right field and chased Raxlin in a head of him, to clinch the contest. Despite numerous errors on both sides, the game was nip and tuck all the way, with Miller being the pick of the hurlers. Mundel and King did the twirling for the Yonge St. boys, King relieving Mundel in the fifth after Stouffville had collected four runs without a reply.
Both teams collected two runs in the fist innings, but Aurora broke out with five in the second, only to have the homesteads right on their heels again four runs in the fourth on two hits and two errors, Lewis and Miller doing the hitting for Stouffville. There was considerable free base running and both teams missed several chances for double plays. This game completes the Junior schedule with the exception of a postponed game with Richmond Hill, Stouffville hanging to fourth place, Milliken finished first. For play-off purposes the league will be split into two divisions, the Yonge St. team on one hand, and Markham, who finished last, along with Stouffville and Milliken in the eastern section.
Aurora 11 Stouffville 5
Despite the fact that at one juncture, Stouffville infield had Aurora goggly eyed by pulling off a triple play, the hometown Juniors could not seem to get their hits across at the right moment, while a couple of costly errors gave Yonge St. boys three of their runs. The game remained in a semi-deadlock 1-0 for over half of the nine innings. STOUFFVILLE MIDGETS HAND AURORA FIRST DEFEAT
Stouffville Midgets handed Aurora their first defeat of the season on Tuesday night, downing them 8-7. Lorne Schell was on the mound for the locals throughout the entire game, pitched faultless ball. There were two errors chalked up against Stouffville. On two occasions Schell struck out two batters in succession with Aurora pressing with bases loaded. The best hit of the game was a triple by Percy Schell.
This completes the Midget schedule, and at the moment it is doubtful if there will be any play-offs forthcoming. Stouffville is slated to enter the O.B.A. playdowns, and already have their team lined up with some help in the pitching department and outfield from Markham and Milliken.
An uncompleted Junior game with Richmond Hill might be played off next Tuesday, if arrangements can be made.

MANY LOCAL WINNERS AT SOUTH ONTARIO PLOWING MATCH
Under nearly perfect weather conditions, 33 competitors entered the field in the various events in the South Ontario Plowing Match on the farm of Elmer Powell, Columbus, on Thursday last.
In the eight classes of plowing, the top honours were evenly decided between farmers from Ontario County and those from outside. There was large contingent from outside points from as far away as Aurora, Cannington and Little Britain battled it out. One of the big prize winners was Gardham Tran of Markham, who won the high cut, open to all, and the best finish and crown in the same class.
Most of the farmers consulted, thought the ground was just right for good plowing though they said a good rain would have made it perfect.
F.M. Campbell, agricultural representative for the county, and honorary president of the association, led off the proceedings with a compliment for a good match held and went on to say that Ontario County has as diversified a record in agricultural matters as any county in the province with its breeding, cattle shows and plowing. He added that he hoped that Ontario County would show as well in the International Plowing matches at Goderich, Oct., 18 as they did in the last match in 1940.
Mr. Quinn of Peterboro was one of the judges in the matches. The other judge, W. Timbers, said he thought it was one of the best matches held in Ontario and that he admired the sportsmanship evidenced at plowing matches. He did however deplore the decline of the high cut matches, which he said had been discouraged by the big companies making jointer plows. He said the winners in this match “were those with well balanced land” — with little difference between the crown and the finish.
The president of the South Ontario Plowmen’s Association, H. Hayes of Columbus was master of ceremonies for the prize giving.
Leading prize winners included:
Class 1. High Cut, open to all

Penalties big factor when Red Wings go down 4-2
After riding the crest of a four game winning streak, Stouffville Junior O.H.A. entry finally bowed to Aurora on Friday night by the tune of 4-2. “Ike” Harper’s boys were just a jump behind Aurora right up to until the last ten minutes, when Simmons game on ice. Doug Moore who played a whale of a game in the Stouffville net, was powerless to stop the shot with Aurora men right on the doorstep, and not a local Red Wing in sight. Jack Rumney opened the scoring in stanza one, flicking the puck into the open side from close quarters, after Jewett had taken a bat at it, and Smith kicked it out. It took Aurora less than five minutes to even the count, Wilkinson getting the goal. The battle see-sawed back and forth for the balance of the period with first one side having the advantage and then the other.
Penalties played a very part in the Aurora victory part in the Aurora victory, as they scored three of their four goals when the Stouffville team were short-handed. In the first period Aurora drew two penalties, Andrews had Brodie getting the nod, while Campbell did a stretch in the cooler for Stouffville. In the second period Aurora scored twice, while Mabbett was serving twice, and Pascoe who fell to fisticuffs with Mundell in the minute major when Simmons scored the final goal. There were eleven trips made to the penalty bench, six by Aurora, Doolittle getting three, and five by Stouffville Clement and Minton geeing one each.
Both teams showed signs of tiring in the second period, but the few minutes breather just before the final twenty minutes had them rolling again. While Stouffville were pressing in the last period, they just couldn’t break the Aurora defence clear enough to beat Smith in the nets. Midway through the last period, Gord Lewis brought the locals within shooting distance of a tie once more, weaving in through a maze of Aurora boys to plant the rubber safely behind Smith and Make it 2-2. Simmons put the game on ice with less than ten minutes remaining. With only two seconds left Stouffville was rewarded with a penalty shot, chalked against Mundell, who fell on the puck in his own goal mouth. Clement took the shot, but failed to beat Smith. The final bell came with the next face-off.

SUNDERLAND GAINS 9-9 DRAW TO PROLONG SEMI-FINAL SERIES
After building up a four run lead in the early innings of the game Sunderland slipped badly and allowed the locals to pull ahead in what appeared to be a certain Red Sox victory. However, in the final innings of the see-saw battle the visitors scored three runs to take the lead for a second time in the game. In the locals last battings Cote singled to bring in Ken Schell with the tying run. The umpire called the game because of darkness.

STOUFFVILLE HORSESHOE CLUB RANKS HIGH IN EXHIBITION TOURNAMENT
The motto of practice makes perfect came true to the local horseshoe enthusiasts as the club ranked high among the top hurlers from Toronto and other larger centres in the annual C.N.E. tournament. For the past two months the clanging of horseshoes could be heard as the throwers worked in earnest to get their tosses down in perfection and on Saturday night a four man team from here came up with a second prize. The team was made up of Harvey Simpson, Harry Noble, Wm. Grove and Dave Stouffer. There were ten four man groups competing for the top honours with Riverdale taking the first prize money of $20.00, Stouffville received $18.00. On Tuesday night the group was broken into couples with Mr. Davis Stouffer playing along with his partner from West Toronto walked off with the top award. It was certainly an honour to have the local club bring home the first and second prize especially i competition with larger centres such as Kitchener, Galt and some of the Toronto squads.

Stouffville girls pay another visit to Agincourt diamond on Wednesday night of this week for a game under the floodlights. The last game played there went to Agincourt 10-9. Joan Haynes did the hurling for Stouffville but was replaced by Blanche Hornsby, a new recruit that Coach Staley is lining up for next season. Nelda Elson took a turn at third base for the locals. Helen Goudie came up with the best hit of
the night smashing a four bagger into the deep outfield. Myrtle Staley connected for three bases. The umpiring is reported to have been a little on the poor side and it is because of this that a return contest is being staged. COOK BLANKS SONYA WITH TWO-HIT HURLING PERFORMANCE
Earl Cook returned to memorial Park on Monday night after recovering from his injury sustaining in the previous contest to hurl the Red Sox to a smashing 7-0 victory over Sonya Braves and move up into the top spot in the Tri-County League along with Sutton. It was a brilliant performance staged by the veteran righthander all the way with one batter after another fading away under his pitching skill. The big ex-pro credited himself with thirteen strike outs and allowed but two hits during the entire game. It was Stouffville’s night all the way as the local batters returned to their hitting ways and pounded the ball to the far corners of the park. Ken Schell came up with the best smash hit of the night with a four bagger in to fifth innings to run the score up to five. Chadwick came up with two hits in four turns at bat as did cadieux and Lorne Schell. Brother Ken had a perfect night with two singles, a home run and a walk in four trips to bat. Both clubs went scoreless until the fourth innings when Cook, K. Schell, Hassard and Jennings all reached base safely. Cadieux singled to drive two runs in but Smith hit into a double play to retire the side. The homesters added three more runs in the fifth off the grand slam homer by catcher Ken Schell. One of the nicest plays on the bases was made by short stop. Lorne Schell who fielded a long roller in deep short and hurled hard to Chadwick for a close out at first. Jennings pulled off some nice base running in the seventh stealing to second and then stopping half way. The catcher threw the ball to second and Hassard who was standing on third raced home to score. The bewildered second baseman then fired the ball home too late and allowing Jennings to tag up with a stolen base to his credit.
Walt Smith came up with a nice catch in the outfield coming in fast to snag a well placed ball in the final innings. After a short batting slump the locals seemed to be once again hitting their stride. They journey to Cambray on Friday night of this week and then have a double session with Woodpile to wind up the regular schedule. A decision on the playoff set up should be forthcoming at an early days. COOK INJURED, RED SOX LOSE TO SUTON 5-3.
Although the Red Sox pulled off one of the nicest double plays we have seen this season, L. Schell to Hassard to Chadwick the locals went down to defeat at the hands of Sutton Green Sox in Memorial Park on Friday night. By the win, Sutton took over undisputed possession of first place in the Tri-County round robin championship race but the Red Sox have a game in hand on their first place rivals. Cook went to the mound for the homesters but had to retire in the third inning when hit on the arm by a fielded ball. Lorne Schell went in to replace the injured Cook and allowed four hits and struck out four. Cook gave up six hits and struck out in the three innings in which he was in action.
Hurler George Holborn e put on a nice pitching display and although he showed some signs of weakening in the final innings he was never in trouble. He gave up seven hits and fanned twelve batters. Sutton had their batting eye well trained and led by Keith Dun’s triple in the second and a three bagger smash by “Skip” Taylor in the fourth, the visitors ran up a 5-0 lead. Only in the seventh and final innings could the homesters bring any batting power to bear as three runs romped home with but one down. However with two runner on base Hassard and cadieux went down before the hurling power of Holborn e and the game was over. Chadwick has shown the best hitting power for the Red Sox and he kept his recent batting average intact with a double and a single in three trips to the plate. Some of the Red Sox power hitters died time and time again without a hit. During the entire game the umpire cane in for a great deal do activism by the local players. The series looks like a tight race as the teams reached the half way mark in the schedule and every game won or lost may mean the difference between winning the championship or dropping out of the finals. SUTTON AND STOUFFVILLE DEADLOCKED FOR FIRST PLACE
Sutton and Stouffville are at the present time deadlocked for the top rung in the Tri-County Championship round robin series and with both teams having three remaining games it would appear that they might finish the schedule in that position unless one of the teams are knocked off by a lower club. By virtue of their win on Monday night the Red Sox squared themselves with their northern rivals. Lindsay has pulled up into third spot followed by Sonya and Cambray tied for fourth. Woodpile is trailing the field.
The standings are as follows:
P W L Pts
Stouffville 7 5 2 10

DROP FACE-OFF CIRCLE IN FRONT OF NETMINDER
The Maple Leafs were informed today that the NHL had discarded a proposed innovation calling for a large face-off circle directly in front of the net. The league will return to the system of having two face-off circles on each side of the ice at each end of the ice, but they will be larger than before. As an experiment, the one face-off circle at each end had been introduced at various NHL and AHL training camps in exhibition games this fall. It had a diameter of 30 feet and the Leafs, among others, objected to it after trial as being fir to goalkeepers who thus were in a direct line of fire. Replacing that circle will be two circles, each 30 feet in diameter at the sides, 15 eft out from the goal line according to information here. The face-off spots in the end zone last season were 10 feet out from the goal and 20 feet in diameter.’ Under the new system there will be five face-off cIrcles, including one at centre ice, which will also be 30 feet in diameter. The area inside the circle, of course is inviolate before the puck is dropped pt all players except the two face-off men.

KEEN INTEREST IN SATURDAY GAME HERE
The old Markham-Stouffville rivalry will be renewed once more on Saturday night of this week when the Eagles, Senior O.R.H.A. entry, come to town for the return contest with the Maple Leafs who are currently leading the Intermediate Community League. These two well-balanced squads have been the subject of much comment during the season and although the Leafs handed their southern rivals a 7-3 setback right on their home ice a few weeks back the Markham crew seem confident they can regain some of their honour that suffered a rude jolt in the first game. Since the first meeting between the two rival clubs the Markham aggregation have played a number o games and should be in better condition than on their previous encounter.
There will be many familiar faces in the Markham line-up. The squad is coached by Ernie Lawrie, and captained by Austie Baker. Other stars in the lineup are Eddie Crouch, Frank Hill, lyle Petch, Bob Lawrie, George Rumney, Milton Black and Jack Poots.
The Maple Leaf have some well-known stars in their squad also. Bill Mullholland or Murray Wagg will guard the nets with Les Clarke, Don Campbell, Len Wilkes and Don Davis on defence.

LIONS PEEWEE N.H.L.
In the second game Canadiens jumped into a 3-0 lead in the first twelve minute without a reply from Boston. Dave Hammersley getting the first two and Warriner the third. Finally Madill scored at the sixteen-minute mark but the come-back was slow. Fifteen minutes later Arnold got a nice goal on a pass-out Btu Rick Hammersley and sixteen minutes later Redshaw tied the score (assist Wilson). The Boston “squirts”, playing a second line instead of fourth, broke in on Jackson and almost scored on three occasions. Their efforts were finally rewarded when Boston set up the puck for defenceman Evans to score. Boston maintained their slim lead until 4 minutes from the end of the game when Hammersley broke loose again for two quick goals, the tying one unassisted and the winning goal one minute later on a pass from Tran. And that’s the way it ended, Canadiens 5, Boston 4.
Boston were minus their regular goalie, Bud Thomas, (his place was taken by Abraham) and their second line and second string defence but it was the inability of Boston first string to tie up Hammersley which contributed most to their lose. Another factor in the Canadian win was the outstanding work of Jackson in the nets. Time after time he stopped labelled shots from the sticks of Boston players. DETERMINE PLAY OFF SPOTS THIS WEEK
The playoff positions for the top contenders in the Intermediate League should be settled this week with the second position still very much in doubt. At the present time Agincourt and Uxbridge are deadlocked for the number two spot and each has three games to play.

RED SOX WORKING OUT FOR MAY 24TH
About twelve players turned out for the initial practice session this week on preparation for the opening of the Tri-County League schedule which get underway on May 26th. A number of players endeavouring to make the squad this season are newcomers to the Red Sox lineup. Lorne Boadway, Murray Wagg and Bud Lehman have turned our for practice along with some of the regulars including Derek Chadwick, Ken Laushway, Walt Smith, Ted Cadieux, Bob Hassard, Ken Schell, Murray McMullen, Les Clarke and Ken Wagg. For mound duty, Lorne Boadway and Ken Wagg are trying to prove their hurling skill with Chadwick back of the plate Ken Schell may take a turn at first base and although positions are still very much in doubt at the present time a picked squad should be ready to take the field for the first contest next week. The third sack should be well looked after with either Coach Hassard or Les Clarke covering that base.

STOUFFVILLE HORSESHOE CLUB RANKS HIGH IN EXHIBITION TOURNAMENT
The motto of practice makes perfect came true to the local horseshoe enthusiasts as the club ranked high among the top hurlers from Toronto and other larger centres in the annual C.N.E. tournament.

Stouffville girls pay another visit to Agincourt diamond on Wednesday night of this week for a game under the floodlights. The last game played there went to Agincourt 10-9. Joan Haynes did the hurling for Stouffville but was replaced by Blanche Hornsby, a new recruit that Coach Staley is lining up for next season. Nelda Elson took a turn at third base for the locals. Helen Goudie came up with the best hit of
the night smashing a four bagger into the deep outfield. Myrtle Staley connected for three bases. The umpiring is reported to have been a little on the poor side and it is because of this that a return contest is being staged. COOK BLANKS SONYA WITH TWO-HIT HURLING PERFORMANCE
Earl Cook returned to memorial Park on Monday night after recovering from his injury sustaining in the previous contest to hurl the Red Sox to a smashing 7-0 victory over Sonya Braves and move up into the top spot in the Tri-County League along with Sutton. It was a brilliant performance staged by the veteran righthander all the way with one batter after another fading away under his pitching skill. The big ex-pro credited himself with thirteen strike outs and allowed but two hits during the entire game. It was Stouffville’s night all the way as the local batters returned to their hitting ways and pounded the ball to the far corners of the park. Ken Schell came up with the best smash hit of the night with a four bagger in to fifth innings to run the score up to five. Chadwick came up with two hits in four turns at bat as did cadieux and Lorne Schell. Brother Ken had a perfect night with two singles, a home run and a walk in four trips to bat. Both clubs went scoreless until the fourth innings when Cook, K. Schell, Hassard and Jennings all reached base safely. Cadieux singled to drive two runs in but Smith hit into a double play to retire the side. The homesters added three more runs in the fifth off the grand slam homer by catcher Ken Schell. One of the nicest plays on the bases was made by short stop. Lorne Schell who fielded a long roller in deep short and hurled hard to Chadwick for a close out at first. Jennings pulled off some nice base running in the seventh stealing to second and then stopping half way. The catcher threw the ball to second and Hassard who was standing on third raced home to score. The bewildered second baseman then fired the ball home too late and allowing Jennings to tag up with a stolen base to his credit.
Walt Smith came up with a nice catch in the outfield coming in fast to snag a well placed ball in the final innings. After a short batting slump the locals seemed to be once again hitting their stride. They journey to Cambray on Friday night of this week and then have a double session with Woodpile to wind up the regular schedule. A decision on the playoff set up should be forthcoming at an early days. COOK INJURED, RED SOX LOSE TO SUTON 5-3.
Although the Red Sox pulled off one of the nicest double plays we have seen this season, L. Schell to Hassard to Chadwick the locals went down to defeat at the hands of Sutton Green Sox in Memorial Park on Friday night. By the win, Sutton took over undisputed possession of first place in the Tri-County round robin championship race but the Red Sox have a game in hand on their first place rivals. Cook went to the mound for the homesters but had to retire in the third inning when hit on the arm by a fielded ball. Lorne Schell went in to replace the injured Cook and allowed four hits and struck out four. Cook gave up six hits and struck out in the three innings in which he was in action.
Hurler George Holborn e put on a nice pitching display and although he showed some signs of weakening in the final innings he was never in trouble. He gave up seven hits and fanned twelve batters. Sutton had their batting eye well trained and led by Keith Dun’s triple in the second and a three bagger smash by “Skip” Taylor in the fourth, the visitors ran up a 5-0 lead. Only in the seventh and final innings could the homesters bring any batting power to bear as three runs romped home with but one down. However with two runner on base Hassard and cadieux went down before the hurling power of Holborn e and the game was over. Chadwick has shown the best hitting power for the Red Sox and he kept his recent batting average intact with a double and a single in three trips to the plate. Some of the Red Sox power hitters died time and time again without a hit. During the entire game the umpire cane in for a great deal do activism by the local players. The series looks like a tight race as the teams reached the half way mark in the schedule and every game won or lost may mean the difference between winning the championship or dropping out of the finals. SUTTON AND STOUFFVILLE DEADLOCKED FOR FIRST PLACE
Sutton and Stouffville are at the present time deadlocked for the top rung in the Tri-County Championship round robin series and with both teams having three remaining games it would appear that they might finish the schedule in that position unless one of the teams are knocked off by a lower club. By virtue of their win on Monday night the Red Sox squared themselves with their northern rivals. Lindsay has pulled up into third spot followed by Sonya and Cambray tied for fourth. Woodpile is trailing the field.
The standings are as follows:
P W L Pts
Stouffville 7 5 2 10

DROP FACE-OFF CIRCLE IN FRONT OF NETMINDER
The Maple Leafs were informed today that the NHL had discarded a proposed innovation calling for a large face-off circle directly in front of the net. The league will return to the system of having two face-off circles on each side of the ice at each end of the ice, but they will be larger than before. As an experiment, the one face-off circle at each end had been introduced at various NHL and AHL training camps in exhibition games this fall. It had a diameter of 30 feet and the Leafs, among others, objected to it after trial as being fir to goalkeepers who thus were in a direct line of fire. Replacing that circle will be two circles, each 30 feet in diameter at the sides, 15 eft out from the goal line according to information here. The face-off spots in the end zone last season were 10 feet out from the goal and 20 feet in diameter.’ Under the new system there will be five face-off cIrcles, including one at centre ice, which will also be 30 feet in diameter. The area inside the circle, of course is inviolate before the puck is dropped pt all players except the two face-off men.

STOUFFVILLE MAPLE LEAFS CONTINUE TO LEAD LOCAL INTERMEDIATE LEAGUE
Stouffville Maple Leafs continued last week to set the pace in theStouffville Arena Intermediate League by winning their ninth straight contest without a defeat. On Friday night the high-flying Leafs took on the other local entry in the league, Peaches A.C. For to periods both teams battled on even terms but in the final fifteen minutes of play the Stouffville squad blinked the light on five occasions while Peaches could net the puck only once. The final score was Stouffville 8, Peaches 4. D. Thomas scored two goals and picked up one assist to lead the losers with E. Mason and D. Smith notching the others.

KEEN INTEREST IN SATURDAY GAME HERE
The old Markham-Stouffville rivalry will be renewed once more on Saturday night of this week when the Eagles, Senior O.R.H.A. entry, come to town for the return contest with the Maple Leafs who are currently leading the Intermediate Community League. These two well-balanced squads have been the subject of much comment during the season and although the Leafs handed their southern rivals a 7-3 setback right on their home ice a few weeks back the Markham crew seem confident they can regain some of their honour that suffered a rude jolt in the first game. Since the first meeting between the two rival clubs the Markham aggregation have played a number o games and should be in better condition than on their previous encounter.
There will be many familiar faces in the Markham line-up. The squad is coached by Ernie Lawrie, and captained by Austie Baker. Other stars in the lineup are Eddie Crouch, Frank Hill, lyle Petch, Bob Lawrie, George Rumney, Milton Black and Jack Poots.
The Maple Leaf have some well-known stars in their squad also. Bill Mullholland or Murray Wagg will guard the nets with Les Clarke, Don Campbell, Len Wilkes and Don Davis on defence.

LIONS PEEWEE N.H.L.
In the second game Canadiens jumped into a 3-0 lead in the first twelve minute without a reply from Boston. Dave Hammersley getting the first two and Warriner the third. Finally Madill scored at the sixteen-minute mark but the come-back was slow. Fifteen minutes later Arnold got a nice goal on a pass-out Btu Rick Hammersley and sixteen minutes later Redshaw tied the score (assist Wilson). The Boston “squirts”, playing a second line instead of fourth, broke in on Jackson and almost scored on three occasions. Their efforts were finally rewarded when Boston set up the puck for defenceman Evans to score. Boston maintained their slim lead until 4 minutes from the end of the game when Hammersley broke loose again for two quick goals, the tying one unassisted and the winning goal one minute later on a pass from Tran. And that’s the way it ended, Canadiens 5, Boston 4.
Boston were minus their regular goalie, Bud Thomas, (his place was taken by Abraham) and their second line and second string defence but it was the inability of Boston first string to tie up Hammersley which contributed most to their lose. Another factor in the Canadian win was the outstanding work of Jackson in the nets. Time after time he stopped labelled shots from the sticks of Boston players. DETERMINE PLAY OFF SPOTS THIS WEEK
The playoff positions for the top contenders in the Intermediate League should be settled this week with the second position still very much in doubt. At the present time Agincourt and Uxbridge are deadlocked for the number two spot and each has three games to play. Stouffville Maple Leafs are solidly entrenched in first place with Peaches A.C. holding down the fourth and last playoff position. On Wednesday night of this week Peaches and Uxbridge meet in the first game while Agincourt battle it out with Riverdale in the second contest of the evening. On Friday night Agincourt and Lansing hook up in the first round with Stouffville and Uxbridge squaring off in the second game. On Tuesday night of next week Stouffville meets Agincourt and Peaches tackles Riverdale. The last scheduled game of the season on Friday, March 28th, will see Uxbridge and Lansing meeting for the last time.
On Tuesday night of last week Agincourt took a big game from Uxbridge 6-2 and Stouffville downed Lansing 9-6. Green with three goals led the Agincourt squad to victory with McKenzie, Miller and Bisson notching the others. Don Clarke picked up three assists on the night’s play. Bigot and Ron Lintner were the Uxbridge goal scorers. The win boosted Agincourt into second place deadlocked with Uxbridge.
Stouffville Maple Leafs led by Bun Sellers with four goals handed Lansing a 9-6 setback. Harold Hodgins notched three and Lloyd Jennings two. Ring tallied three for Lansing with Hamilton, Hampton and Johnston scoring singles. The maple Leafs scoring ace Bun Sellers was a busy man both on and off the ice. Besides blinking the light on four occasions the high scoring forward sat out six minutes in the penalty box.
On Saturday night the maple Leafs shut out Riverdale 9-0 and Peaches absorbed a 12-4 defeat from Lansing. Ken Laushway and Russ Forfar led the Stouffville attack with two goals. D, Forfar and Paisley were the other Stouffville marksmen. Davidson of Landing fired six goals and picked up one assist. Hamilton notched four with Hampton and Fieldhouse scoring the others. L. Grove, D. Smith D. Thomas and M. Grove were the Peaches lamp lighters.

RED SOX WORKING OUT FOR MAY 24TH
About twelve players turned out for the initial practice session this week on preparation for the opening of the Tri-County League schedule which get underway on May 26th. A number of players endeavouring to make the squad this season are newcomers to the Red Sox lineup. Lorne Boadway, Murray Wagg and Bud Lehman have turned our for practice along with some of the regulars including Derek Chadwick, Ken Laushway, Walt Smith, Ted Cadieux, Bob Hassard, Ken Schell, Murray McMullen, Les Clarke and Ken Wagg. For mound duty, Lorne Boadway and Ken Wagg are trying to prove their hurling skill with Chadwick back of the plate Ken Schell may take a turn at first base and although positions are still very much in doubt at the present time a picked squad should be ready to take the field for the first contest next week. The third sack should be well looked after with either Coach Hassard or Les Clarke covering that base.
Les Clarke donned a Red Sox uniform for the first time on Tuesday and will probably be a permanent fixture for the third base position

In the opening game of the Stouffville House League on Tuesday, June 24th, the Giants were victorious over the Dodgers by a 15-9 score. After a shaky start both teams settled down to play steady ball. Although the score was tied 7-7 going into the final innings the game suddenly broke wide open when a number of walks were issued. Murray Stewart and Ed Murphy made up the winning battery while Dodgers’ ace, Dave Hammersley, and Bruce Smith worked hard for the losers. SUNDERLAND BEAT OUT RED SOX FOR TOURNAMENT PRIZE
Rene Bouchard twirled two completed seven inning games for Sunderland on Tuesday afternoon to make a clean sweep of the holiday ball tournament before a good crowd of home town and visiting spectators.
Sunderland blanked Port Perry 6-0 and Stouffville took their game from Sutton 4-3.
The final contest staged between Stouffville and Sunderland saw local hurler Lorne Schell matched against the ace Rene Bouchard. Sunderland gained a one run lead in the first inning when Kerr tripled scoring the second batter.

The locals came through with two hits in the fourth a double by K. Schell and a single by Keith Dunn of Sutton brought in as a substitute catcher but these runners were left stranded. The winners tagged Schell for three singles and a walk in the fifth scoring two runs to give them the game.
In the first game between Stouffville and Sutton the Red Sox hurler, Rawson, allowed five hits, gave up two walks and struck out four batters. Holborne gave up six hits, walked four and struck out six. The final battle waged between Bouchard of Sunderland and Schell allowed eight hits, walked two struck out four.

Stouffville girls ran wild over Cedar Grove on Monday night with a 41-7 victory in a one-sided contest. Marg Schell and Helen Snowball went all the way for the homesters while three Cedar Grove hurlers tried in vain to hold the Stouffville batters in check. Lois Carr started on the mound for the 10th concession girls but was replaced in the fifth. Frances Griffith finished the game. The winners counted eleven runs in the first eight in the second, eight in the third, five in the fourth, four in the fifth and five in their final turn at the bat. Helen Snowball scored seven runs, Marg Schell, Helen Paisley and Peggy White each crossed the plate on six occasions. Cedar Grove came through with their best effort in the seventh when they counted four runs.
While Stouffville was hammering Cedar Grove, Peaches girls were having a field day at the expense of Markham winning by a score of Markham winning by a score of 48-5. Marion Petch and Catherine Masters formed the Markham battery for the first two innings but were replaced by Shirley Young and Betty Wideman shared mound duty for Peaches with Marg Smith back of the plate. Shirley Young came through with the best hits for Markham connecting for a double and a triple.

Some ten members of the Stouffville Hunt Club left for the north country on Monday, where they will construct a new camp near Ardbeg, in preparation for next fall’s hunt. The party is headed by William Reesor.
The fish at Hall’s Lake, Haliburton, had better watch their weakness for worms this week, since a party of Stouffville ladies are on their track. Misses Edna and Violet Hoover, Luella Holden, Gertrude Todd, Mrs Florence Miller, Mrs K.D. Wooburn, Mrs William Griffiths and a lady friend from Toronto, have taken the Stiver cottage on the beach for a week. The jolly group promised themselves a rollicking time. Mrs. Griffiths, we understand, is named in charge of affairs in the culinary department of the camp.
In complimenting the talent which contributed such a good program for the July 1 celebration this paper inadvertently omitted to mention the town orchestra which played for an hour while the large crowd assembled in the building. Their selections were especially appreciated when the time of starting the main event was so long delayed. The orchestra filled in the time in such a manner that the crowd did not become restless in the least. Recently we have been hearing numerous remarks about this musical body that would make them feel “puffed up” if repeated too often.

Stouffville pulled out of their losing streak on Saturday afternoon in the local park by winning from Ostranders 4-2. This is the second Stouffville have taken out of the big city jewelers in their last three starts together. The local club have only five more games to complete schedule with two more home games. Next Saturday, August 5, Pears will play in the local park.

MARKHAM-GRIMSBY SERIES ALL TIED UP.
After defeating Grimsby Peach Buds 7-5 at Maple Leaf Gardens last Friday night in the first game of the their best of five series for the Junior “C” title, Markham was nosed out in the orchard arena on Monday at 3-2 to leave et round tied.
In the second game at Grimsby on Monday both teams set a fast pace, with play inclined to be rough in the latter part. Penalties proved costly to Markham, the Buds scoring their winning counter with two Markham men in the penalty box.
Miller of the Buds drew a misconduct penalty for shooting the puck at Referee Happy Day in protest over a Grimsby penalty. The arena was packed to the rafters by fans from the entire district.
By mutual consent the third game of the series will be played at Grimsby Friday night, and the remaining games at Maple Leaf Gardens.

ENTHUSIASTIC BOWING MEETING ELECTS A.H. WILLIAMS TO HEAD THE 1940 CLUB
A large representative of local bowlers voted unanimously at the annual re-organization meeting on Friday night, to carry on the Stouffville Club which during last season had become a small and rather unenthusiastic body. The pros and cons of carrying on a successful club was thoroughly discussed and it was pointed out by several members that two of the main bones of contention with last years organization was that there was no competitive schedule set up to create interest and that those few who did form rinks were given no opportunity to alternate their position on these rinks and by doing so improve their game and their interest. A motion was finally brought in to place in the hands of the games committee the task of drawing up a schedule of games for local competition, to be played chiefly on Monday nights which is strictly men’s night, and that also players on the various rinks drawn must alternate in the positions of these rinks. Mr. F.L. Button and Mr. James Ratcliff acting as a membership committee have rounded up between thirty and forty members to form this year’s club. The following were the officers elected for the 1940 season: Hon. Pres. Blake Sanders; Pres., A.H. Williams, vice Pres., Ross Ratcliff; Sec-Treas., Thomas Rae; Grounds Committee, Messrs. M.E. Watts, Jason Ratcliff, Ira Aldred; Games Committee, Robert Johnson, M.E. Watts, and Fred Marshall; Representatives to the district annual meeting to be Messrs. Blake Sanders and Thomas Rae and to the annual Provincial meeting; F.L. Button. Fees for this year are to be $3.00.

DATE OF NORTH YORK PLOWING NOW NOV. 5
Big Plowing Event Will be Held in Ringwood
The annual plowing Match of the North York Branch of the Ontario Plowmen’s Association will be held will be held later in the season this year. Instead of the usual October date the match will be held on Tuesday, Nov., on the farm of Mr. Edward Logan, Ringwood.
Canvassers will be asking for your donation shortly for this popular event, so that prize lists with acknowledgement of the donations may be issued as soon as possible.
Suitable lands are available on the Logan farm and adjacent properties on the 8th concession of Whitchurch just north of Ringwood. The annual supper and distribution of of prizes will be held in Stouffville in the evening as usual.
Horse plowmen who figure they are pretty good in sod will be looking forward to their branch match to take a fling at the $10.00 prize Salada Tea is offering for the best plowed land in sod, using horses.
Winners of the event in every branch in Ontario will be entitled to plow in the Salada special at the “International” where the prizes should attack plowmen from all over the Province. First two winners will be awarded gold and silver medals and an extensive trip in the Spring and the next twelve — cash prizes from $25.00 to $5.00. CHOOSE YOUR OWN HUNTING GROUND
Pheasant shooters from Toronto, and other places will find a new hunting ground this season (Oct. 25-26) since the Township of Whitchurch has made a game preserve specially stocked with additional birds to those already roaming the district. John Crawford, township clerk, is now offering interim receipts for licenses to be issued later, and to the wise ones we would suggest they step in early as the limit to be issued to outside hunters (anyone resident outside the township) is 200.
The Township of Markham, we are informed, has sold its total allotment of licenses which the township will issue for the coming shoot, so that Pickering and Whitchurch are the remaining areas about here for the hunters to roam over. This year is the first year for Whitchurch as a game preserve, and expectations are that hunters will find the game as plentiful as anywhere also.
Hunters have been more than well treated by the Department of Game and Fisheries this year by getting two open seasons for the shooting of partridge this fall. The seasons are each of two weeks duration, the first which is now in being from October 1st up to and including Thanksgiving Day, October 14th, while the last open period is from November 4th to November 16th, both dates inclusive. Several of the local hunters are expected to enjoy this sport including Messrs. E.A. Button and Sam Armstrong. The daily bag limit is set at five, with the total bag allowed for each hunter in the two periods of twenty-five birds. Partridge are reported to be quite plentiful in the woods and swamps this year and no doubt many of those game birds will fall victims of the barrage during the lawful open periods.

DARING EXPLOITS OF ROYAL AIR FORCE
Somewhere in England
Dear Folks:
Everything is hunky dory and we are getting along fine.
How are things with you? I suppose you are busy getting ready for old man winter. Gosh, it seems funny to think of the Exhibition being over and I haven’t seen the place. However there will come a day.
Don’t know how my mail get through, but service has got plenty of punk at this end due to London and so many railways being on the hum. There was a notice on the board yesterday that a ship carrying a part load of cigarettes was torpedoed and sunk two weeks ago. If mine were on it I hope they choke some shark.
As you no doubt have read, this country is now the front line. It’s funny but I just can’t get excited about it. I’ve seen some queer things this last week as of course everybody has.
About a week ago there was a big dogfight right overhead and there was a Messerschmidt fighter brought down a couple of miles away. It sure did come down too and caught fire about a thousand feet up. The Hurricane that nailed it followed it down and then went back up and smack into a formation of nine big Heinkel bombers coming down out of the clouds to say hello to us. Two of them smartly cut loose and nearly cut him in two but the pilot bailed out and came straight for us around 4,000 feet up I figured. Just after he bailed out two more Hurricanes nailed one of the Heinekens and the crew bailed out. It looked like popcorn coming out of a popper. The guys in the chutes were pretty well mixed and when the first one got down to around 600 feet some anxious guard let a Bren clip at him. He landed to 100 yards away, (We just put up the blackouts and turned the light on. I couldn’t see before) and as soon as he hit the ground he started to swear. He happened to be the Hurricane pilot and had two holes through his left arm. He as all for going and finding out who was behind that Bren gun, and shoving it down his throat. he was an Australian and let me tell you those boys can really cuss. We didn’t see any of the Jerrys because they landed about half a mile away.
Saturday morning I was heading for Southampton and was near a little town called Alton guzzling blackberries when trouble started about five miles away. There were 21 Jerry bombers without escort coming so high you could barely see them. After about 15 minutes they made a huge circle and were back where I could see them again. A Spitfire came down in s screaming dive, shot out and leveled right in front of nine Jerrys. he flew right into them and hit the third. I never saw anything like it. He took the left wing right off the bomber and they both came down in a wreck. I found out afterwards it was a Polish squadron and they figured he’d been shot in the lung or some place and decided to take a few with him.
Well I guess I’ll close for now. Give my love to everybody.
George Abell
P.S. I’m sending a ring I started to make today out of a piece of the block of a Heinkel E9-twin engine bomber that was downed a few miles away. It’s very light. A piece 8” x8” x1” only weighs 3 ounces.

FRED TIMBERS WAS THE CHOICE OF THE “OLD OBSERVER”
Perhaps few people know that Fred Timbers, beside winning the All-American Plowing championship was chosen by lCary Lettell, National Broadcaster for the Canadian Broadcasting Corp., who sign off under the name, “Old Observer”, as an outstanding sports figure for 1940. The Associated Press takes a nationwide pol every year to try and answer the question, “What is the outstanding sports figure, event or team for that particular year.
“My first choice,” said Mr. Lettell, “and this will surprise you, is a Canadian farmer who won the championship of All America, Oct. 29th, 1940 at Davenport, Iowa, against such stern plowing competition as the State champions and runner-ups of various States, and who has not received one iota of credit due him in the press in his own country. Stop a moment and think, folks. I knew I’d stump you. Well, I refer to Fred Timbers of Stouffville, who won the All-American plowing championship — that’s tough competition in any sport — and really useful sport too.”

BOWLERS EXECUTIVE TO STAND FOR 1941
A fair attendance of local bowlers turned out for the annual reorganization meeting on Thursday evening, and the same list of officers carried last year were unanimously returned for another season
They are: Hon. pres., Blake Sanders; Pres. A.H. Williams; vice Pres. Ross Ratcliff; Sec’y-Treas., Thomas Rae; Grounds committee, Messrs. M.E. Watts, James Ratcliff, Ira Aldred; Games committee, Robert Johnston, M.E. Watts and Fred Marshall; Membership committee, F.L. Button, James Ratcliff.
It was decided to charge a fee of $4 this year, in an effort to clear the club of some of its financial burdens. Outsiders and beginners will pay $3.00. Despite the fact that a number of large repair bills cut into last year’s funds, the club showed a slight balance on the currant financial sheet, and it is hoped that with these expenses over, and an increase of $1.00 in the fee, better financial progress can be made.
George Sanders was engaged as caretaker at the annual salary of $150.

I am just writing a we lines to say Th. I received your box on May 2, and was very thankful to get it because you know what it was like when you were over here yourself The Canadian smokes sure taste good when we get them and a letter shows someone is thinking of us. I often See Gordon Lehman. He is just over the next street from me. You can tell his mother that he is alright and feeling fine. He came across on the same boat as I did. We had a nice trip over, three weeks in Halifax and on the boat twelve days. What a trip but we got here safe. We were sick for five days and what a feeling. But we all have to look for some of that kind of thing in the army. It isn’t all sunshine is it. We have a great time to understand the money but at last we are getting on to it and it doesn’t seem to go very far. Not like the dollar at home. The weather is very cold over here and raining. Today is the first day of sunshine and warm.
So keep smiling,

ALLEN HARPER AND EDWARD BARLOW MEMBERS OF HEROIC GARRISON
At least two Whitchurch boys are known to have been with the Canadian Forces at Hong Kong during their heroic stand. Pte. Allen Harper volunteered in July of this year, and following a short period at Camp Borden he was shifted to the west coast.
From there he wrote to his home near Stouffville his final letter being received while at sea. Only when official listing of Canadians at Hong Kong was published last week were the parents certain that their boy was in the Far East was theatre.
The Harpers have their three sons in the service. Allen with the Royal Rifles, overseas, Donald with the R.C.A.F. at Fingal and Kenneth who will go into training next week at an army trade school.
Dear Comrades,
Things are quiet over here an odd Jerry but we never see them. They can’t get very far past the coast now as we have too many Spits and Hurricanes. I’m well and hope you are all the same. I received to box you sent me and I was sure glad to get it. I think that all the support the people give you is just fine. A lot os people don’t realize what a gift like that means to one that is so far from home. When I get them I can see Bert Lickorish feeding fishes, Shine Davis pressing, Doc. Ball saying, “yes, what else, have you a pain here?’ and A.V. Nolan sitting behind his desk, smoking a cigar and talking to George Smiley.
Well I guess i have ambled far enough for tonight. Will write again soon, and to one and all wish to say, “Merry Christmas and Happy New Year” from the bottom of my heart. Thanks fellows, see you soon .
Yours truly,

Another parcel of cigarettes arrived from the Comfort Fund yesterday. Thanks very so much. I am in London for a few days embarkation leave. Haven’t the least idea where we are going but will get as much fun out of the trip as possible. I am the only Canadian in the group. Rather regret leaving some of the boys that I joined with but it seems that I’ll never learn to stop volunteering. My address will be the same for the present. Thank you once again.
I remain,

Dear Bert,
Just a few lines to thank you for the smokes I received. I have come to be quite dependent on them. A lot of smokes were sunk by enemy action according to our bulletin board, and I see one of my bundles from you was among them. That is the first that has been lost to my knowledge. Guess things are busy at home these days. Is the old vinegar works in war work now, I heard a rumour of it. It would give some more people employment. Must close now.

TWO LOCAL LADS WERE MEMBERS OF CANADA’S FAMOUS ROYAL REGIMENT
Fred castle and Bruce Lintner Privates in the Royal Regiment Reported Missing on Monday and Tuesday — Hardy Young Soldiers Fit For Commando Duty Were Chosen for the Attack — Stouffville Fourth Loss Since War Began
Pte. Fred Castle and Pte Bruce Lintner are both missing after the Dieppe raid on the French coast. This is according to the advises received by the parents of both soldiers this Monday and Tuesday. Fred Castle is the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. John Castle, and Bruce is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Lintner, east end families of Stouffville. Mr. Lintner before the war broke out was a village smithy, but is now engaged in war work at the Pickering plant. The missing boys were both born in Stouffville and lived here all their lives unit they enlisted.
The information received from Ottawa merely stated that both boys were missing, and that further information would be forthcoming in due course.
Fred Castle and Bruce Lintner enlisted together in the Royal Regiment shortly after the outbreak of war. They went overseas with their regiment two years ago last July, and from recent letters it was evident they were undergoing most intensive training. The last letter from Fred was received by his mother the other day and was dated July 28.
This is the second calamity to befall the Castle family, for last March their second son, William, was officially reported missing at sea, having gone down in the north Atlantic on a convoy to Britain when his vessel was sunk by enemy action around Christmas time, 1941.
So far the war has accounted for four sons of this town. Bill Castle was the first casualty, and second George Davis, son of Rev. and Mrs Douglas Davis, who was killed in England, and now the two boys reported missing are the third and fourth.
When sen by the press Mrs Lintner and Mrs. castle were in tears for the news was very fresh to them. Both are hoping for the best, and anxiously await the next news, telling them the fate of their sons. If they are prisoners of war, both mothers will be happy. They were known to be hardy soldiers fit for Commando duty.
“Fred was an expert with a gun, and I suppose they needed him”, said Mrs. castle, who brought out the two letters she had just received in the last mail, telling how hard they were training off the Dover coast. The boys had been together ever since they enlisted and appeared to arrange their holidays in England at the same time. The last one enabled them to visit relatives of Mrs. Castle at a place where Fred’s mother was born.

RONALD MARQUIS CHAMPION PLOWMAN
Sunderland and Greenback men won the principal prizes at the annual plowing match of the North Ontario Plowmen’s Association, held at Uxbridge on the farms of Wm. Merrick and Sons and Stuart Ball last Thursday.

Allen Harper was the first of three brothers to join up.

LADS MEET IN GERMAN PRISON CAMP
That this is a small world in which we live, has again been demonstrated by a couple of local lads who recently found themselves in the same prison camp in the very heart of the enemy territory. Charles R. Burrows, R.C.S. taken prisoner at Dieppe writes home to say that he finds himself in the same camp as Bruce Lintner, also captured at Dieppe. The surprise of the boys can hardly be imagined.
Chas. Burrows is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Burrows of Brougham and Bruce Lintner is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Lintner of Stouffville. Both families have one other son in the service.

NAZIS STILL SHACKLE TWO LOCAL BOYS
Prisoners of was since the Dieppe adventure, Bruce Lintner and Fred Castle, are still wearing German shackles, according to a letter received by Mrs. Castle, which was written in a German prison camp about the middle of March.
Fred said it was one of the happiest days of his life at time of writing since he has received his first parcel from home since he was a guest of Mr. Hitler.
A liberal supply of cigarettes, more than he had ever possessed in his life before as well as other good things from home. Fred reported that he had received ample clothing from the Canadian Red Cross, but appreciated “eats” from home.
regarding the shackling, he says that he is wearing Hitler’s bracelets nine hours a day, but there is a play of nine inches in the chain so he is not worried about the ordeal.

LOCAL HUNTERS FIND DEER WITH HORNS LOCKED, BATTLED TO DEATH
Few Clubs able to Bring Back Quota – 20 below at South River – 12 below at Zebra Siding
No storybook on wild animals would be complete without a yarn of a famous battle between two buck deer where the chargers got their horns lock , never to be set free and where the victor died with the vanquished. Well, Dr. S.S. Ball and a party of other Stouffville men, Jack Smits, Harry Ratcliff, Myron Anderson and Tommy Kerr came upon the remains of two such bucks while hunting in northern Haliburton. The professional man said that the big animals had died only a day before, and evidence about indicated a terrific battle had been fought.
The horns of the two contestants were so securely locked that the hunters could not release them, and had to cut off to bring back the evidence. It appeared that the pair must have come together with a terrific thud, and fought for hours. Finally the larger deer over 200, flopped its adversary over a big log with such force its back was broken. The pair rolled into a stream of water close at hand, and the other deer was dragged under and drowned.
It was the first deer hunting trip for Mr. Smits of the Stouffville Machine and Tool Works, and in addition to being a eye witness to what we have described he shot a deer. The party brought home two other deer in addition to the heads of the bucks.
Dr. Ball remained in the woods for a second week and aided by Col. Harold Brussels they brought down a big 200 pound buck and a large doe, which looked like top ranking success for eve professional hunters, Jim Bowes, their cook, is willing to put the good shooting down to his cooking.
Generally speaking, the hunting was good this year, but luck was very poor. According to Morley Symes there were deer tracks everywhere in the Hawk Lake region, but this keen eyed hunter only saw one deer. He shot it and the deer went head-long into the bushes, got up, blinked, and ran into the lake a mile away but was not recovered. There are a lot of good marksmen around Goodwood, but only two deer were shot by hunters from that place. The two Walters did the trick, Walter Byran and Walter Todd.
“Red” Forsyth hunting with a party from Uxbridge including his brother, Arthur dropped a dandy 175 pound buck. Four in the party brought home two deer.
Nels. Byer, Rob Snowball, Jack Pennock, and Elgin Wagg hunting with the Markham club at Foot’s Bay in the Parry Sound district met with poor success. Elgin shot a fawn, Jack shot a fox, but nobody hit a deer. Tracks of a bear were all around the cabin one morning, but old bruin was away before anyone knew he was about. This is the poorest hunting this party has seen for years.
The Sutton hunt club to which Frank Baker, Chris and Sam Armstrong were attached brought home eight deer. This was away below their quota and the first time in 30 years that the boys of the club did not bring back their number. The boys said the temperature dropped to 12 below zero.
The hunters who tramped the coldest country were the Whitchurch group, with which Chas. Atkinson, Reg. Stouffer, Wm. Greenbury, Wm. Armstrong and W. Pipher from town were attached. Don Ratcliff said it was 20 below around the camp at a place called Rye on the south river. Like the others they had lots of fun but did not bring back their quota.

ISSUE OF POOL-ROOM LICENSE REFERRED FOR LEGAL ADVISE
After a full open discussion whether to grant another pool-license in town or turn down the application of Mr. Delbert Holden, the town council on Thursday evening at their inaugural meeting decided to obtain legal opinion from M. F.L. Button.
Under the present bylaw of the town council is given power to set the rate for pool tables, but is not empowered to restrict the number that may operate. Mr. Holden made application under this by-law, and councillor Nolan said he felt we should honour the by-law or at least get legal opinion as to whether we were within our rights in refusing the license to Mr. Holden.
Councillor Nolan also gave notice that he would introduce a bylaw at the next regular meeting which would give council power to govern the number of licenses and the number of tables as well.
Reeve Weldon said he was apposed to opening any more pool rooms in town, but Councillor Brillinger and councillor Hugh Boyd said they would be willing to allow Mr. Holden his license if he would extend the accommodation of the Village Inn to serving meals again.
Mr. Holden had intimated that he had no intention of operating a pool room. He wanted a single table for the convenience of his over-night guests and for other patrons of the Inn.No charge is made and only what is called Boston pool goes on.
The license fee is $25 for the first table. LICENSE GRANTED
The municipal council met in special session Tuesday evening and passed a resolution instructing the clerk to grant a pool table license to Delbert Holden, for year 1944. Councillor Nolan moved the resolution which was seconded by Councilor Brillinger and carried unanimously.
The resolution was moved after Reeve Weldon explained his interview with the solicitor, Mr. F.L. Button, as to the duty of the council under the existing bylaw governing pool tables.

F.L.Button
President Red Cross
Dear Sir,
Today your parcel arrived here at our squadron and I am writing now while I have time to thank you and all the people who are organized to help us over here. At times my work seems far from the front line, but many times we are reminded of it.
We are burying two of our men tomorrow and two men are very grateful for their umbrellas. It was a midair crash last night. I have seen our ranks thinned in various ways. For two years I have had some seventh wonder escapes. I had a letter from my brother Jim yesterday and he is in good health. Since I have been away from home I have learned to appreciate it more and more, and the sooner I come back the happier I’ll be. I think we can celebrate Christmas and new Year’s with more hope for the coming year, when I am sure victory will be ours.
To study England as I have is a pleasure and a privilege and I have tried to see as much as I could, historic places, Local living habits, etc. Here in this district they have wooden houses, built like our clap-board ones. I would like to describe the country about here but secrecy forbids. Next year I hope to be home again. To you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

FINE YOUNG MAN GIVES LIFE WITH R.A.F. IN BURMA
A Specially Trained Pilot in third Tactical Airforce R.A.F
The sad advise from Ottawa reached the home of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Fairles, last Thursday announcing that their son Warrant Officer Leland Fairles,as killed in action on the Burma front with the R.A.F. The telegram stated met death on Sept. 24. 1944.
The news has shocked a wide circle of friends, who knew the airman and his worth as a young man in the community, as well as being a crushing blow to his parents.
Leland enlisted three years ago and after training with the R.C.A.F. at Goodrich and Camp Borden went to England two years ago last August. He flew Typhoons in Scotland and fought over the Channel, before going to India by way of the Mediterranean. He landed in Bombay and since that time saw heavy action. It was learned through a friend that Leland flew next the command plane. He had been in combat fighting since March, and was especially trained jungle pilot in the 3rd Tactical airforce.
Before enlisting Leland taught school one year at Mongolia following his graduation from Stouffville High School and Toronto Normal School. His background made him a good observer and his descriptive letters fro both Scotland and from India will be long cherished by the bereaved parents and two sisters. Leland understood farming and never failed to enquire about progress on the home acres from his jungle home in India.
His descriptive letters and souvenirs from the other side of the world reveal his keen and ready ability to understand things, and his human interest was never lacking.
The Tribune has been promised the use of one of his letters with a selection of poetry recently received by his mother, and this we hope to print for the benefit of the many friends and old associates.
A close companion of Leland Fairles, a young flier from Ottawa, was killed to months ago, recent letters from India disclose.

SENIOR HARDBALLERS CONTINUE SLUMP, LOSE TO NEWMARKET
Only three players on the Stouffville ball club were in any kind of form for the game against newmarket on Friday evening when the North York boys rattles out nineteen runs against home team ten.
Lorne Schell on the mound, brother Ken behind the plate and Lou Raxtin on the third sack played heads up ball all the way, but the balance of the team could do little that was right, and the continued series of errors brought more groans than cheers from the big crowd that had gathered to watch this final scheduled game of the season.
Only seven solid hits were registered against the arm of Lorne Schell, and these were well spread, and should have kept the score down to at least half of the final total, had it not been for the multitude of muffs in the field.
At the present time, Stouffville hopes of gaining a play-off berth for the senior squad are pretty remote. Prior to the last two disastrous contests with Milliken and Newmarket, the team was tied for fourth place with Richmond Hill. A game which was rained out with Milliken can do little to effect the local chances. Markham rests in the cellar with only one win.
Junior Near Top
However the bantam entry are doing better than their big brothers and are running neck to neck with Richmond Hill for top position of their group, with Aurora and Milliken following up in that order. Markham juniors are scheduled to play here this evening (Wednesday) to finish up the schedule.

SR. HARDBALL TEAM WIND UP SCHEDULE BY DEFEATING LEAGUE -LEADERS, MILLIKEN
Stouffville senior hardball team batted their way back into the limelight on Friday night when they defeated the league-leading Milliken team by the score of 7-6. The game was called in the sixth innings on account of darkness.
Milliken held a two-run lead for the first three innings, and only the stellar mound performance of Lorne Schell kept them from adding to their total, as repeated muffs, by the local in field allowed the bases to be loaded on two occasions.
However, in the fourth innings, the Stouffville lads got their eye on the slants of the Milliken pitcher and drew up on even terms collecting three hit combined with several errors by Milliken infield. The home team continued their march in the fifth frame, when they swung heavy and often to drive i five runs for a commanding lead. It was during this innings that Miller, Stouffville’s first sacker, slammed out probably the longest hit of the game, a 250 foot poke down near the rink.
Milliken appeared really roused after this barrage and were able to push over four more runs in their half of the innings to come within one run of tying the count once more. In the sixth innings Milliken got a hit and Stouffville balled up an easy infield out to give the visitors the break which allowed two runs to cross the plate to make the score 8-7. Just at this juncture the umpires agreed that darkness prevented further play, and the game was called.
One of the largest crowds of the season was on hand for the game, and were thoroughly entertained. The boys ere duly credited with putting up a good fight even though the win meant little to their play-off chances.
Fishing Near Georgian Bay
On a fishing trip in Muskogee at Chapping Lake about twenty men from Stouffville and district were reported making a real haul. in the party have been Messrs. Wm. Greenbury, Nelson Byer, Arthur Weldon, Atoll Feir, Willis Widdifield, Art Byer and others. The party walked in to camp seven miles from the railroad. Secret of good fishing, no doubt is the fact that motorists cannot get within a mlle of the lake with a car. Some of Some fishermen arrived home several days ago, others will be back today.

An all-star midget team is being picked from North York Lions league and the first game of the O.B.A. elimination there on Thursday night, with a return game in Newmarket on Saturday or Monday. Newmarket ousted Milliken in the senior play-offs.
Stouffville’s pitchers Lorne Schell is being sought to join the mound staff for the team to meet Collingwood, but it is doubtful if he will be able to make the trip owing to farm duties. VETERANS COMFORT FUND STILL DOING A BIG JOB WELL
Of all the comforts received by our local boys and girls overseas, no effort has been more appreciated than that of the of the local Comfort Fund, which while under the name of the Stouffville Veterans, has been pretty well a one-man show, and that man has been Bert Lickorish, who incidentally is the secretary of the organization and its most active member.
The Fund was started in March of 1941, and the total cash amassed between that date, and July 31st of this year, was $2,141.67, which is quite an achievement. During that time parcels have been dispensed to 87 members of the armed forces. Over the above 1,622 parcels. While certain of this service, personnel were non-smokers and received parcel made u of chocolate bars and other comforts the number of cigarettes dispatched was 486,000.
Stouffville has had two prisoners of war since Dieppe and these boys were sent 52 parcels containing 47,800 smokes, which made a grand total 535,100.
The Comfort Fund was more recently augmented by the Soldiers’ Wives and Mother Club whose individual effort appears elsewhere in this issue.
We might also mention the Navy League Tag Days which have sent comforts to those of our boys on the high seas. The money raised in their behalf was $382.41, while the British War Victims’ Fund received $86 from the Fund.
Mr. Lickorish has received glowing letters in appreciation of his work to no end, many of which have been published in these columns from time to time.
Very few of the Comfort Fund parcels were lost enroute and all in all it has been a grand piece of work to no end, many of which have been published in these columns from time to time.

The first letter to reach Mr. and Mrs. Ross Harper, from their Allen a war prisoner since Hong Kong of any recent writing arrived here this week, dated September 9, 1945 and written from Yokohama, japan. He described his entry into that big fanfare. There was a band, and the lads who endured the Jap prison for so long were showered with chocolate bars, cigarettes, and almost anything, they wanted.
Other letters from Allen Harper last week were a tear old.
“Pt was lovely to sleep again in a nice soft bed, to eat real food,” writes Allen, who said he was in fair health. He was undergoing an army medical examination, the outcome of which might change his next move. However, he is aboard the U.S. hospital ship, Marigold, which may be board on the 4,000 mile voyage to America. Naturally the Harper and all their friends earnestly, hope this is a case.

STOUFFVILLE HAS EDGE IN PLAY BUT UXBRIDGE TAKES GAME
Despite the fact that Stouffville lost their opening game on home ice 5 to 3, the team gave a most credible account of itself before the large crowd gathered, and were able to bottle the northerners up continually, but failed to beat Knight in the nets.
The home team was down two starting the second period which was all Stouffville. Uxbridge, only having three shots on Raxlin during the entire twenty minutes. The continuous power play was rewarded as George Rumney rapped home the equalizers. Uxbridge took the lead again in the final stanza, Hockley making it 3-2 at half time. Seconds later Rumney completed the hat trick banging home his third goal of the night to tie the score once more. But the success was short-lived, as Uxbridge managed to beat Raxlin on a scramble around the net, and scored a fifth in the dying moments to really clinch the contest.
The game was cleanly played despite the soft ice, which greatly hampered any organized passing plays. only four minor penalties were handed out by referee max Reesor.
Stouffville are playing in Whitby tonight, and will be hosts to Port perry in the local arena on Friday evening.
Stouffville line-up — goal, Raxlin; def., Paisley, Burkholder, Lewis, Campbell; fist line, G. Romney. J. Romney, Sellers; second line, Lehman, Jewett, Petch.

LOCAL GIRLS BEAT ELGIN MILLS
Stouffville girls chalked up a 15-4 victory over Elgin Mills on Monday night in a scheduled Markham Twp. Ladies’ League contest. The Yonge Street squad group, champs for the past two seasons, have yet to win a game so far this season. Mary Cole was the big batsman for the winners clouting a four-base hit. Joyce Byer went the distance on the mound for the local squad.
Agincourt retained their edge atop the league by edging Peaches 9-8 under the lights. Newt Joynt’s crew have now lost only one game so far this season. Peaches and Stouffville are currently battling for number two position with Elgin Mills mired deep in league cellar. RED SOX EDGE PORT PERRY 4-3
Stouffville Red Sox strengthened their chances of catching a spot in the Tri-County League playoffs by edging Port Perry 4-3 on Thursday night of last week. Righthander Lorne Schell went the distance for the homesters and won his own ball game in the fifth inning when his safe hit drove Bud Lehman across with what proved to be the game winning run. Schell and McTaggart both gave up only four hits in a tight pitchers battle. The Red Sox counted one run an in the first inning when error on Ken Schell’s drive allowed Les Clarke to romp home. Hits by Ted Cadieux, Bob Hassard and Les Clarke and a walk to Murray McMullen accounted for two more runs in the second.
Port Perry came up with a three run rally in the third inning on hits by McTaggart and Owen and two Stouffville errors. They were held off the score sheet however for the remainder of the contest.
With two out in the fifth, Bud Lehman batting in the cleanup position hit safely and Lorne Schell brought him around with a single. Schell sent Port Perry down in order in the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth innings. Bob Hassard and Lorne Schell paced the Stouffville batting attack with two hits. BANTAMS BOW TO NEWMARKET 15-3
Stouffville Bantams bowed to Newmarket Optimists 15-3 in a scheduled seven inning game in the local park Tuesday night. The contest had to be called at the end of five innings due to darkness.
The visitors counted runs in every inning and ran the score into the double figures in the fifth when six players crossed the plate. McNab started on the mound for the winners with Robinson hurling in relief. Both hurlers had little trouble throughout the game with the starter giving up only two hits, a single to Gord Eckardt and relief mounds man throwing no- hit ball for two innings.
Stouffville counted their first run of the game in the second inning when McNab on the hill for the visitors ran into control trouble and walked right fielder Joe Haylow with the bases loaded to force a run in. An error on Bill White and single by Gord Eckardt and Jim Turner pushed two more runs across. The homesters were held off the score sheet for the remaining two innings.
Righthander Gord Eckardt ran into trouble in the second inning when Robertson clouted a triple into deep left field with two mates on base. He showed signs of tiring in his final turn on the mound when he issued three free passes, hit one batter and gave up three hits.
Coaches Murray Stewart and Harold Hodgson used only players of bantam age for the game and sat out such top performers as Barry Wilkes, Harry Barber and Lawrence Wideman.
On Saturday night of this week, Earls court Bantams of East Toronto will be the visitors in the Stouffville park. Righthander Harry Barber will go for Stouffville on the mound with either Sandy Smith or Gord Eckardt behind the plate.

SERIES GOES TO FIFTH GAME
Sunderland bounced back with a big win on their home diamond Monday night downing the Stouffville Red Sox 7-3 to force the Tri-County League finals into a fifth and deciding game. The title match will be played on the Sunderland diamond commencing at 5 o’clock on Monday evening.
Stouffville came up with their big win on Thurs. night, a tight 3-2 affair in eleven innings before three hundred shivering fans in the local park. Schell went the distance for the Red Sox allowing eight hits in the eleven frames, while Sunderland were rapped for just six hits by the Stouffville batsmen. Big gun at the plate for the Red Sox was Hassard who clouted three long balls, which would have surely gone over the fence for homers had they not been gathered in at the last minute by Sunderland fielders. With their backs practically on the fence in the eleventh inning, Porky Schell ,who had given a stellar performance on the mound, won his own game with a hit with two on and two out. At the time Stouffville led the fourth game of the series 3-0. in the fifth innings when Sunderland came through with a spray of hits to garner six runs and go on to take the game 7-3.

BRAMPTON SHOW SPEED TO CLIPPERS, WIN 6-4
A wild fight between Ronnie Bell of Stouffville and Fraser Scott of Brampton will be reported to the O.H.A., according to referee Jack Shopshire. The skirmish broke out in the dying seconds when forward Bud Lehman of Stouffville and Bob Cherry of Brampton clashed on the boards. Both players were given major penalties and sent to the showers. At the whistle, bell and Scott exchanged blows on the blueline and then resumed their feud of leaving the ice for the dressing rooms. As the game was officially over when the fight broke out, the referee can only report the incident to the O.H.A. and they would have to decide what penalties should be handed out.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas FATAL PENALTIES
The old adage, “You can’t score goals in the penalty box” was brought home to the Stouffville Clippers on Tuesday night. The ten penalties handed out to the local squad (including a major and two 10 minute misconduct) in the first and second period allowed visiting Georgetown Raiders to roll to an easy 5-1 victory. the numerous trips to the cooler for the Clippers was even more serious since Stouffville was trailing their rivals at this time. The lack of forward line strength fouled up their offensive attack and put more strain on their over-worked rearguards. The majority of the goals handed out were of the ridiculous type and a couple of players heaped more trouble on themselves by raging with officials, hence the extra ten minutes added. In the third period it was a different story. The Clippers were penalized only once and held 75% of the territorial play. However the damage was done. WILL BE MISSED
At the end of the month, Stouffville will lose one of its most ardent sport promotors. Constable W. S. “Casey” Hilliard. The local Police Chief has been one of the main organizers of sport here during the past couple of years and his service will certainly be missed.
Constable Hilliard has been a very enthusiastic worker with the young boys both in town and surrounding district. Following his arrival here he stepped in and too over one of the Peewee teams I the Lions League and lays winter he coached his team to the runner-up position in the group. Following the wind-up of the league he treated his team and other sports promotors to a turkey supper at his home.
Working through the Police Association, “Casey” put up two fine trophies for competition lays year. The Midget award went to Brooklin while the bantam silverware was retained by the local entry. This year he obtained no less than eight trophies, six for Peewees and one each for the Bantams and Midgets. This year he was appointed Manager of the club and arranged to have the to have the team provided with new uniforms through the generosity of Keyson Motors. Only recently he put the Bantam team through a vigorous practice when the coach Nick Bangay was unable to attend through sickness. Speaking on behalf of the young folks he worked with and trained, I know his efforts have been very much appreciated.

STARK LEADS TEAM TO WIN OVER GEORGETOWN
Geo. Stark, the shifty forward who at the completion of last year’s schedule decided to hang up his skates, has come out of retirement and although converted to a defence position he still hasn’t lost his knack for scoring goals. On Friday night, the dipsy-doodle artist paced the Clippers to a 6-4 win over Georgetown with a sparkling two-goal performance. The win was registered against the same club that dumped the homesters here on the previous Tuesday night by a 5-1 count.
In addition to Stark’s two goals, Chick Webster, Ronnie bell, Ken Crawford and Harold Hodgson notched singles. Stouffville held the Raiders off for thirty minutes of the contest before Georgetown struck for four fast goals. Goalie Norm Stunden turned in a fine game in the Clipper cage. CLIPPERS SINK OAKVILLE IN OVERTIME BEFORE 200 FRIGID FANS
In an actioned-packed overtime, Chick Webster, Stouffville veteran centre ace, took a pass from leftwinger Bud Lehman and rifled a shot into the Oakville net to give the Clippers their sixth victory of the season. With less than ten seconds remaining in the extra session, Ken Crawford dumped a loose puck into the empty Meteor net to sew up the contest for Stouffville by a score of 6-4.
Chick Webster was selected by his teammates to be Captain of the tam for this year. Runners-up Ronnie bell and Ken “Red” Crawford will act as Ass’t Captains.

Stouffville’s bantams started the season off right by downing Uxbridge 8-1 in their first scheduled game. It was centreman Ron Stewart who paced the homesters with a three goal performance. Glenn Pennanen notched two tallies while singles came from Joe Haylow, Garry Baston and Don Eddington. Elson fired the lone goal for the visitors. MIDGETS BLANK UXBRIDGE ON REDSHAW’S GOALS
Wayne Redshaw, the spark plug of the Stouffville Midgets paced his team to a 2-0 victory over Uxbridge in the first game of the regular season. Redshaw potted both tallies for the homesters. Gord Eckardt and Murray Holden were given assists on the goals. Barry Wilkes guarded the twine for the winners and chalked up a shutout. In Coach Derek Chadwick’s absence, ex-Junior forward, Dave Hammersley handled the club.

CLIPPERS BLANKED 3-0 IN THIRD STRAIGHT HOME LOSS
Stouffville’s recent successes away from home is the only reason that has kept them near the top of the group, after Milton stepped into town and blanked them 3-0. Georgetown are presently leading the league with ten victories while the Clippers hold down second place with eight wins.
The game on Tuesday was one of Stouffville’s weakest efforts this season.
Don Forgie was the Clipper’s most potent performer. He was used plenty during the game, both on his regular shift and for killing off penalties.
The contest was not so rough as was the case in the last meeting between the two rivals. Hardest hit during the entire game was referee Eddie Hodgson who was sandwiched between two players and fell heavily to the ice on his back. Time was called but Hodgson agreed to carry on in spite of a badly bruised back. CLIPPERS UPSET BRAMPTON 5-3
The Clippers bounced back to upset their rivals. Chick Webster once again paced the Stouffville attack with two goals. Ronnie Bell, Ken Crawford and Jack Watson notched singles. REDSHAW’S HAT TRICK PACES MIDGETS TO 8-3 VICTORY
The Stouffville Midgets chalked up their second win by beating Unionville 8-3. The locals first string line centred by Norm Hendricks with Wayne Redshaw and Murray Holden on the wings notched six of the team’s eight goals. Redshaw boosted his season’s total to five tallies in two games by scoring the hat trick. Norm Hendricks scored two and Murray Holden one. Don Benson and Howard Malcolm potted the other goals for the homesters. MIDGETS BLANK UNIONVILLE IN SECOND GAME
Playing their second game against Unionville in 5 nights, the Stouffville Midgets racked up their third straight win of the young season as they shut out their rivals 5-0. It marked the second time that goalie Barry Wilkes has closed the door on the opposition.

Port Perry jumped into a 1-0 lead in the first period but Stouffville rallied to even the count in the early stages of the second frame. Roger Stover fired the equalizer, a bullet drive from the blueline that caught.

SPORTS SHORTS
by Jim Thomas ONE TO FORGET
If you were one of the persons who cool and comfort of your summer cottage to attend Monday evenings ball game between Stouffville and Sunderland, we’re very sorry. What happened to the Red Sox shouldn’t have happened to any team. Those who have seen the homesters in previous games this season, know they are capable of a good brand of ball. For those who watched the local squad for a first time, believe us when we say “It was just a bad game.” It was one of those contests that the players couldn’t do anything right. Weak at the bat and in the field, Sunderland took advantage of their errors to pile up a commanding lead. The Stouffville management offered no excuses for the loss. “We got a
bad game out of our system,” said coach Bob Hassard, “It’s better that we play that way now than in an important playoff game.” “It’s the first home game we’ve lost this season.” commented Manager Ted Cadieux, “1 feel sure we can take Orillia in the playoff semi-finals.” Manager Cadleux was absent on holidays and did not see he contest. “The Sunderland pitcher had nothing on the ball,” said left fielder
Hal Gibson. “Glbbie” was one of the few players who didn’t make an error during the night. “It was coming in as big as a football,” said centrefielder Graham Frisby, “we just couldn’t hit it.” “We certainly can’t blame the pitcher for the loss ,”continued Coach Hassard, “we gave him no support.”
The Red Sox move into the group semifinals this week with the first game at Orillia on Wednesday (tonight) and the return contest here on Monday evening. After the holiday game many will not give the locals much chance of knocking off the hard-hitting Buckeyes, but we shouldn’t sell our club short. The trouble with many of us, we have become so accustomed to our team winning game after game its hard to take a setback. Even if Stouffville doesn’t capture the Tri-County honours its certainly no disgrace to the team or the town. While attending the game on Monday, I heard many critical and sarcastic
remarks coming from supposedly rabid supporters. Sure such a game is a disappointment but one should recall the 8-1 defeat chalked up against Orillia last week and the 11-3 setback registered against Sunderland on July 16th. Everybody makes errors and Stouffville’s, we hope, have come all in one game. It’s over and done now, let’s keep our fingers crossed for the important series that lies ahead. GIRLS BEAT AGINCOURT 21-2
The Stouffville-Peach’s girls team journeyed to Agincourt on Tuesday night and soundly trounced Newt Joynt’s squad 21-2. The game was called after seven innings. Audrey Murison went the distance on the mound for the winner and was never in trouble. She was solid support at the plate. Doreen Jarvis completed the battery, Marg Smith, a regular performer with the local squad, held down a short
stop position replacing the injured Gwenn Kennedy. The latter player, one of the best infielder in the group, pulled some ligaments in her ankle a couple of weeks ago and has been out of action since that time. Coach Dennis Pilkey hopes to have her back in the lineup for the playoffs. Joan Haynes played well at second base. FIVE COMPETING IN HORSESHOES
Five of the local members of the Stouffville Horseshoe Club journeyed to Toronto on Monday take to take part in an All-Ontario tournament at the Beach. Out of 50 competitors Mr. Walt Pascoe of Claremont placed 6th. Other Stouffville members in the tourney were Messrs. Elmer Orr, Harv Clendenning, Giles Tran and Wm Grove. On Friday evening the qualifying rounds will be held at the Stouffville pits for a local tournament which will be held on Saturday evening. The tourney has been restricted to Stouffville club members only. IT’S RED SOX AND ORILLIA IN SEMI-FINALS
The Stouffville Red Sox move into the group playoff semi-finals this week. Their opposition in the first round will be Orillia. Sunderland will play Port Perry. The first game will be on Wednesday evening (tonight) with the return tilt here under the lights on Monday. The opening series will be a best two out of three games. The winners will meet in a probable three out of five game series. Game time on Monday evening will be 7.30. NEWMARKET BLANKED 6-0
The first game of the Midget group semi-finals in the North York League will be played here on Friday evening. Aurora will e the visitors. In the other round, Newmarket will meet Richmond Hill. The series is expected to be a best two out of three games. Stouffville completed the regular schedule in top position, having dropped only one game throughout the sea-son. On Tuesday evening the homesters journeyed to Newmarket and blanked the County Town crew 6-0. Harry Barber worked on the mound for the winners. Newmarket used three hurlers.

MIDGETS OUST NEWCASTLE 3-2 IN “RUBBER” GAME
Stouffville’s Midget “C” team earned the right to enter the second round of their current O.B.A. playoffs by edging Newcastle 3-2 here on Saturday afternoon. It was the final game in a best of three series. Lynn Taylor working on the mound for the winners held the visitors in check with 8 hits. He registered 7 strike outs. At the plate, Taylor also performed well, clubbing out a double and a single. Harry Barber duplicated Taylor’s feat batting in the clean-up position. Ted Suzuki and Gord Eckardt each pounded out a pair of singles and Roger Beazley had one hit. Eric Carleton went the distance on the hill for Newcastle and was clipped for 9 hits. He walked 2 and struck out 11. The I right hander was Newcastle’s best batter, hitting a home run and a single. Stouffville jumped into a 2-0 lead in the first inning on hits by Ted
Suzuki and Gord Eckardt and walks to John Little and Lynn Taylor. Suzuki and Little rounded the sacks to score. The local squad stretched their advantage to three runs in the fifth. With two out ,Harry Barber pounded a double into centerfield and Lynn Taylor pushed him around with a two-base blow. For the for the remaining three innings the homesters were held off the score sheet. Newcastle broke into the scoring in the sixth inning with one out, pitcher Eric Carleton slammed a round tripper over the centerfield
fence with the bases empty. In the seventh, two hits by Ron and Doug McCullough added another tally to Newcastle’s total, cutting Stouffville’s advantage to a single run. In the bottom of the ninth inning, excitement ran high when the Newcastle lead-off batter singled. Rainey hit into a fielders’ choice
and R. McCullough was a strike out victim. A wild pitch clipped D. McCullough on the knee putting runners on first and second base with two out. The last batter lined into the waiting glove of pitcher
Taylor to end the game and the series. The tying and winning runs were left stranded on the base paths.
In spite of frigid temperatures a fair number of spectators braved the cold to witness the contest. The midgets now meet Caledonia in the next round. MIDGETS LOSE TO CALEDONIA 7-6
The Stouffville Midgets will play the second game in their current of a series with Caledonia here in the park on Thursday afternoon at 3.30. The third game, if needed, will also be played here on
Saturday. In their first meeting with Caledonia on Monday, the local squad dropped a close contest by a 7to 6 count. The opposition scored a pair of runs in the last inning, while Stouffville were held to a single tally to decide the outcome. Caledonia piled up a 5-0 lead in the early innings before Stouffville could push any runs across the plate. In the seventh inning, however, they collected 6 hits and 5 runs to deadlock the score. Neither team scored in the 8th but the winners collected a pair in the ninth while Stouffville scored only one. Harry Barber went the distance on the mound for Stouffville allowing
10 hits. He struck out 8 batters . His mates committed 4 errors. Weatlerson worked on the hill for Caledonia. He was clipped for 17 hits. Stouffville left 21 men stranded on the base paths. Harry Barber was Stouffville’s most potent batsman collecting four hits in five trips to the plate. Catcher Gord Eckardt hit three safeties, one a 300 foot double into deep centerfield. John Little, Bob Stover and Wayne Redshaw each clouted a pair. Leicher, the Caledonia 3rd baseman, was best for the winners, hitting safely three times.

MIDGETS BEAT CALEDONIA TO EVEN SEMI-FINAL SERIES
Stouffville and Caledonia are battling right down to the wire for the right to enter the Ontario Midget “C” finals. Each team has won one game. The third and final contest is scheduled for Stouffville’s Memorial Park on Thursday afternoon (today) at 3 30 o’clock. On Tuesday afternoon right- handers Harry Barber of Stouffville and Herb Leeming of Caledonia engaged in a thrilling pitchers duel with both hurlers going the nine inning limit. Barber was clipped for only 5 hits. He walked none and struck out 3. Leeming was equally outstanding on the hill for the opposition allowing only four hits. He walked 3 and registered six strike outs. The Stouffville curve ball artist didn’t allow a single earned run to cross the plate. Caledonia’s only tally in the second inning was the result of an infield error. Stouffville trailing 1-0 going into the 6th inning, ruined Leeming’s no-hit attempt as they whacked out 2 singles, a double and a triple. A walk and an error pushed four runs across the plate which was enough for the all-important victory. Ted Suzuki led off the big 6th inning with a walk and moved to third on John Little’s single. Short stop, Bob Stover clouted a double into centre field scoring Suzuki and Little.

MIDGETS BLANKED BY CALEDONIA 9-0 — DROP FROM ONTARIO PLAYOFFS
Stouffville midgets were ousted from the Ontario “C”play offs on Thursday afternoon of last week, when they were blanked 9-0 by Caledonia. It was the third and final game in the O.B.A. semifinals. The winners now are meeting Delhi for the Championship. The homesters looked like mere ghosts of the club that knocked off Aurora for the North York title and then they defeated Newcastle in the first round of the Ontario playdowns. The locals commuted 3 errors in the field and their bats were strangely silent at the plate. Three of the five miscues came in the seventh inning when Caledonia counted four runs. Lynn Taylor started on the mound for Stouffville and pitched six and one-third innings. He was clipped for 8 hits, walked none and struck out 4. Harry Barber took over in relief and finished the game. In the two and two-thirds innings hurled by Barber, the local righthander allowed 3 hits, walked one and fanned 3 visiting batters. Herb Leeming went the distance for Caledonia. he gave up only 4 hits, walked 2 and struck out eleven batsmen. Stouffville’s usually heavy hitters failed to connect for one safety in the entire nine innings. The four hits picked up by the homesters came from the bottom of the order. Roger Beasley, Murray Holden, Wayne Redshaw and Lynn Taylor collected the locals only hits. Taylor clouted a double for the only extra-base blow. Wayne Redshaw pounded the ball into right field in a pinch hitting roll, taking over from Geo. McKay in the sixth inning. Stouffville’s heavy guns Bob Stover. Gord Eckardt, Harry Barber, John Little and Ted Suzuki failed to connect. Geo. McMaster was Caledonia’s best batsman, hitting three singles. Bryan Griffith and Herb Leeming each pounded a pair. John Little, in spite of playing with an injured eye was Stouffville’s best defensive performer pulling off two one-handed shoestring catches in the early innings to rob visiting batters of almost sure hits.

MIDGET TEAM SCORE 9-0 SHUT-OUT OVER LAKE WILCOX
After a rather slow early season start, the Stouffville Midget team appears to be gathering power as the schedule progresses. They have now beaten Bradford, Sutton and Lake Wilcox and split the points with Newmarket. They suffered defeats at the hands of King City and Aurora. Lake Wilcox was the latest opposition to feel the line scoring power as the locals skated to a decisive 9-0 victory on Saturday night at Aurora as Glenn Pennanen and Norm Hendricks set the scoring pace in the last game, so linemate Rick Wedseltoft paced the attack. on Saturday with a three goal performance. Garry Taylor, one of the most improved marksmen on the club, equalled Wedseltoft’s efforts with a hat trick effort. Single tallies came from the sticks of Ron Stewart, Norm Hendricks and Glenn Pennanen. Coach Bill Lennox used both goaltenders, Roger Beazley and Ron Mortimer in nets and the two padded puck-stoppers shared the shut-out victory. Neither netminders were overworked at any time in the contest. Lake Wilcox will be here on Friday night of this week, the game to commence at 6.45. One week from Friday, Jan. 18th, King City will move into town for a return engagement. It would appear that they will be the team that Stouffville must defeat to enter the final round of the Ontario playoffs. R. HILL BEATS CLIPPERS 7-4, SCORES 4 GOALS IN 3 MINUTES
The Stouffville Clippers blew a three goal lead in the second period on Thursday night and allowed the Richmond Hill Diamonds to chalk up a decisive 7-4 victory. The Yonge Street crew currently occupying the cellar position in the group, suddenly caught fire midway through the second frame and fired four goals in less than four minutes. They added thee more in the last period while the homesters could notch only one. The Clippers, as a team, fell completely apart at the eight minute mark of the second session. Once the Richmond Hill machine started to roll it could not be stopped. Jack Smith and Dalt Hicks fired a pair with single tallies coming from the sticks of Norm Roberts, Wally Stothers and Paul Foy. Russ Forfar, Harold Hodgson, Jake Harman and Alex Wilkins potted the Stouffville markers. Harold Hodgson was the only player on the Clipper club who turned in a creditable performance. Playing more than forty minutes of the sixty minute contest, the hard-firing forward worked his heart out up to the final whistle. Coach Don McIntosh used him up front and on the rearguard to bolster his sagging defence. Hodgson netted one goal and picked up one assist. The Clippers moved into a lead at the seven minutes mark of the first period with Russ Forfar blinking the light on passes from Harold Hodgson and Frank Hendy. Eight minutes later, Alex Wilkins batted the disk into the twine, with Howard Forgie picking up an assist. At 3.21 of the second frame the Clippers added to their total as Jake Harmon’s weak shot rolled through goalie Ian Bellman’s pads into the corner. With the exception of one goal in the final frame, the remainder of
the contest was strictly Richmond Hills show. The visitors netted their initial tally at 8.06 on a shot by Wally Stothers and cashed in for three more in quick succession, two by Jack Smith and a single by Norm Roberts. The Diamonds made it 5-3 at 1.32 of the third period on a tally by Dalt Hicks. A bullet drive by Hal Hodgson at the thirteen minute mark momentarily closed the gap but less than minute three minutes later Hicks notched the winner. Paul Foy salted the game away with the visitors seventh goal. There were eleven penalties in the contest, seven to the Clippers and four to the Hill. Bud Lehman shared three of Stouffville’s portion handed out by referee Loring Doolittle. Frank Hendy of the Clippers and Jack Smith of Richmond Hill squared off in a boxing bee in the dying minutes of the game and were banished with majors. According to the holders of ring-side seats, Hendy connected with a Marciano right that momentarily dazed the North York Constable. Hal Gibson of Stouffville handles the linesman duties. GOAL IN LAST FIVE MINUTES SUTTON MIDGETS GET 4-4 TIE
A penalty to right winger Bryce Spencer in the late stages of a Midget game in Sutton on Tuesday night allowed John Learoyd’s squad to notch their fourth goal and gain a split in the points. Stouffville had racked up a three goal lead earlier in the contest only to see it fade away as the game progressed. Ron Stewart fired a pair of goals for Stouffville. Rick Wedseltoft and Norm Hendricks potted singles. Roger Beazley turned in a fine performance in the nets for the locals and could not be blamed for the loss.
The game roughened up in the final period and the Stouffville management were not happy with the type of tactics dished up by their Sutton rivals. Some of the fans also became rather hostile and it was thought for a time that there might be trouble after the game was completed. The tension subsided however, and no fracas resulted. GOAL IN FINAL MINUTES GIVES BRADFORD 5-4 WIN
With less than three minutes remaining in the third period, Bradford notched their fifth and winning goal to give them a 5-4 victory over Stouffville on Saturday night. The Clippers spotted the winners a two-goal lead early in the game, then staged a four goal rally to pull back on even terms, only to have their rivals pot the clincher. Coach Don McIntosh pulled his netminder from the cage in favour of an extra attacker but the move failed to pay off. Howard Forgie blinked the light for the first tally on passes from McDowell and Clarke. Defenceman Les Clarke notched his first goal of the campaign with McDowell picking up another assist. Frank Hendy, Bruce McDowell and Harold Hodgson combined for the Clipper’s third goal and Alex Wilkins deadlocked the count on a pass from Joe Lewis. JUVENILES BEAT UXBRIDGE 5-1 IN ROUGH CONTEST
The Stouffville Juveniles chalked up their initial victory on Friday night of last week when they defeated Uxbridge 5-1 in their schedule opener. The contest was a rough affair as the teams threw their weight around from the opening whistle. Leftwinger Murray Holden and defenceman Bob Todd waged a private feud throughout the game with both boys taking the others measure at every opportunity. Ross Madill paced the Stouffville attack potting a pair of goals. Single tallies were notched by Steve Wideman, Howard Malcolm and Ted Suzuki. Uxbridge fired their lone marker in the second frame. The
local squad had a number of chances to add to their total when Don Haynes and Mike McStravick broke into the clear but neither could blink the light. Harold Hodgson officiated. The two teams will “fight “it out again Friday evening of this week in the Uxbridge arena but the officials intend to clamp down on the rough tactics. More than 200 fans witnessed the game. MIDGETS WHIP SUTTON 7-4, HENDRICKS STARS
The Stouffville Midgets’ first string trio of Norm Hendricks, Glenn Pennanen and Rick Wedseltoft showed off their true form on Friday evening as they connected for five goals in chalking up a 7-4 victory over Sutton. It was the first meeting between the two clubs this season. Norm Hendricks was the star of the contest. He potted a pair of goals and assisted on two other tallies to pace the Stouffville attack. In addition he set up numerous other plays that had the Sutton defence somewhat disorganized at times. Hendricks goals came in the first and third periods. Glenn Pennanen kept pace with his linemate by firing two, his first proving to be the game-winning tally. He picked one assist. Left- winger Rick Wedseltoft notched one goal and assisted on two others. Other Stouffville marksmen were Harland Mills and Garry
Taylor, Paul Tomlinson, Ken McAlpine, Peter Charpentier and Ben Big Canoe blinked the light for the visitors. The first period ended in a 1-1 deadlock. Norm Hendricks opened the scoring on a pass from Rick Wedseltoft and Paul Tomlinson evened the count for Sutton near the end of the frame. In the second session, Stouffville outscored their rivals four goals to two. Harland Mills fired a low drive into the bottom corner on a rink-long solo rush, but Ken McAlpine tied it up with a long shot that goalie Mortimer fanned on. With Sutton playing a man short, Rick Wedseltoft banged in Glenn Pennanen’s goalmouth pass and Garry Taylor made it 4-2 with a similar goal on a pass from Ernie Abraham. Peter Charpentier of Sutton and Glenn Pennanen of the locals each netted singles late in the period. In the final frame, Sutton’s playing Captain Ben Big Canoe narrowed the homesters margin with a fifth tally but from that point they were held off the score sheet. Glenn Pennanen sizzled a hard shot into the twine and Norm Hendricks picked the bottom corner to end the game. Coach Bill Lennox used both netminders, Roger Beazley and Ron Mortimer in the nets with the latter working in the second period. Glenn Byer was Stouffville’s official for the game.

Juveniles Run Into “Dead End” Road Trips
Stouffville Juveniles, one of the hottest clubs in the local circuit have run into some tough luck on their current road trips. A squad made the twelve mile jaunt to Wilcox Lake only to be faced with a diamond rougher than Winterstein’s gravel pit. The Stouffville management refused to start the game for fear of a player sustaining a severe injury so the contest was called off until a later date. Then the local hardballers travelled to Richmond Hill and received a rude shock when only six Hill players showed up for the contest and the Stouffville squad put their equipment back in their cars and returned home. If the managers of the neighbouring clubs find they are unable to field a team they might have the presence of mind to splurge a dime and default the game before the opposition starts out on its ten or fifteen mike joy ride. TOWN GIRLS DOUBLE SCORE ON PEACHES IN FIRST MEETING
Stouffville girls came up with an air-tight fielding display on Friday night to down Peaches 13-6. Stouffville came behind on two occasions to win. J. Haynes and H. Snowball formed the battery for the local squad while Peaches were forced to send three pitchers to the mound to hold the opposition in check.
Peaches connected with four hits in the first inning for three runs while Stouffville kept in the running by tapping out four hits with two left stranded. Peggy White and Marg Schell crossed the plate. Stouffville rallied in the bottom of the fourth when the roof fell in on Peaches. Marg Schell slammed a four-bagger with Peggy White and Joan Haynes on base. By the sixth Stouffville was leading 9-6 when they connected for three more hit and worked the pitcher to two walks. Helen Paisley, Helen Snowball, Donna velde and Barb Hare counted the final runs for the winners.
Helen Snowball was the top batter for Stouffville with three hits and a walk in four trips to the plate. Marg Schell increased her batting average with three for four. Joan Haynes made five appearances, had one hit and walked three times. Stouffville have an air-tight infield with Donna Velde on first, Marg Schell at second, Carolyn Haynes at third and Peggy White at short. The outfield of Pat Lehman, Helen Paisley and Barb Hare is very reliable. SHAMROCKS OUT HIT MARKHAM BUT LOSE
Stouffville Shamrocks slugged pitcher Peg O’Neill for ten hits but threw the game with a number of two and three base errors. Markham took the game with a score of 14-4.
Stouffville found themselves woefully shorthanded at game time and had to call on the services of a couple of fans. The weakened lineup proved to be their downfall as the Markham batters took advantage of seven scattered hits and stretched them for extra bases.
Jack Sumner started on the mound for the Shamrocks and went five innings. Jerry hooker finished the game. Coach Earl Cook was the top batsman with three hits in four trips to the plate.
Stouffville fielders committed ten errors in the seven innings contest while Markham played flawless ball. SIX CLUBS ENTER HORSESHOE TOURNEY

CLIPPERS EDGE NEWMARKET 4-3 IN CROWD PLEASING PERFORMANCE
Stouffville Clippers squeezed out a thrilling 4-3 victory over the Newmarket Spitfires on Saturday night, in one of the most colourful exhibitions of the season. The Spits looked very good and are certainly a suitable replacement for the Swedenbound Lyndhurst Motors. Nick Bangay was once again the triggerman for Stouffville as he fired what proved to be the winner at 12.20 of the third period. Jack Rhodes turned in a steady performance in the Clipper cage and outshone the opposing netminder Tupling who looked a trifle shy at times.
Both clubs battled through a scoreless first period although each team had a number of chances to blink the light. Newmarket were granted the first real opportunity to test sub goalie jack Rhodes when centreman Ken McNeil was banished for high sticking. The Stouffville defense and back-checking forwards kept the play confined almost entirely to the centre ice zone and the Spits failed to get a shot on the Clipper cage. A few minutes later Bradbury was penalized for holding Geo. Stark but Stouffville were not able to get any clearcut drives on the Newmarket net. Midway through the period defenseman Joe Scatalon teed off on one of his deadly slap shots, but the puck caromed off the post. Elwood Small worked in close but the puck went astray as the Stouffville forward tumbled over the sprawling Spitfire goalie.
Goaltender Jack Rhodes pulled off the two best saves of the game early in the second period when playing coach Herbie Cain and Ortie Thomas broke through the Clipper defences. Rhodes fell to the ice and blocked both scoring attempts at 9.45. Mclver and Gibson teamed up for the Spits to open the scoring on a close-in play. Three minutes later Gordie Haddleton, Frank Stephenson and Elwood Small combined to tie the score. The goal came on three quick passing attacks in front on the Newmarket net. EATOUGH ROBBED OF SHUT OUT BY FLUKE GOAL
A fluke goal robbed goalie Blake Eatough of a well deserved shut out on Monday night as Stouffville Clippers scored a 6-1 win over Leaside. The local squad had racked up a substantial 6-0 lead with only a few minutes remaining in the game, when a Leaside forward let a shot go that bounced high over the net and then rolled across the line when it came down and hit the ice. The clippers were full value for their victory on nights play. Goaltender Eatough returned to his familiar position between the pipes and turned in a dazzling performance. Ken McNeil and Hal Gibson were two goal marksmen for Stouffville with Polly Minton and Elwood Small notching singles. Rightwinger Geo. Stark was forced to retire from the game in the first period when he struck his head hard on the ice.
George Stark, shifty Clipper right winger suffered a concussion on Monday night in the game against Leaside. The Stouffville forward was knocked to the ice early in the game and struck his head. The injury may force him to remain on the sidelines when The Clippers meet the Ravina Flyers here on Saturday night. RED WINGS BLANK MAPLE LEAFS 13-0 ON LIONS NHL
Detroit Red Wings strengthened their hold on fourth place in the lions NHL on Saturday night as they whitewashed the maple Leafs 13-0. Don Haines led the attack with five goals. Don McCullough was close on his heels of his high scoring team mate with four tallies. Bob Lehman counted two while Malloy and Malcolm notched singles.
The New York Rangers pulled to within one point of the league leading Boston Bruins on Saturday as they overpowered Chicago Black Hawks by a score of 10-2. Ron Stewart paced the Ranger win with four goals. Ted Suzuki and Bill White scored two with Don Neal and Roger Stover firing the others. Mike McStravick was a powerhouse on the Chicago attack and scored their only two tallies.
In the league opener Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins battled to a sixty minute deadlock. Wayne Redshaw put the Bruins in the lead with a corner drive but Glenn Jackson tied the score on a pass from Roy Lewis. The Montrealers took the lead for the first time as Murray Hisey drove the puck into the empty net with goaltender Bud Thomas sprawled midway between the goal and the blueline. Boston’s star defenceman, Don Benson put his club back on even terms in the see-saw battle with an unassisted goal. With about ten minutes remaining in the contest, Don Tran completed a spectacular end-to-end rush and scored what could easily have been the winner. However Ron Hedges and Wayne Redshaw had different ideas as they combined for the equalizer a few minutes later. BISHOP GIVES WINGS TIE WITH BROOKLIN IN FINAL SECONDS
Bob Bishop, Stouffville Juveniles high scoring forward came through with the equalizer on Thursday night with but five seconds remaining in the game to give Stouffville a 1-1 draw with Brooklin. Bishop slapped in Bob Todd’s rebound in the final play of the contest.
Both clubs went scoreless in the first period as the Stouffville and Brooklin goaltenders were called on to make some good saves. The second period commenced with Gribben of Stouffville becoming involved in a brawl with a Brooklin opponent and both were banished with major penalties. Hardly had both clubs returned to full strength when Wagg was thumbed for tripping. However no damage was done with Bellman and Pollard warding off the Brooklin attackers with some good defensive work. With Bishop in the penalty box, Brooklin notched the first tally of the game. The game ended with a dramatic finish as Bishop scored in the final seconds. The Brooklin ice was badly cracked which made passing and stick handling difficult for both clubs.

CLIPPERS WIN SR. ‘B‘ METRO GROUP
Stouffville Clippers captured the OHA Sr. ‘B’ group championship on Friday night as they whipped Leaside 8-5 to take the round four games to with one. The Casa Loma trophy awarded to the group winners by the West Toronto Kiwanis Club was presented to team captain Hal Gibson by Mr. Bill Morgan, chairman of the Leaside Arena board. The line of Gord Haddleton, Frank Stephenson and Nick Bangay outperformed Leaside’s ace threesome of Kenny Sinclair, Russ Brankston and Gord Boniface in the goal scoring department. Each of the Stouffville forwards got two goals and picked up two assists for a total of twelve points. Brankston fired two, Sinclair and Boniface netted singles. Scarcello scored the other Leaside tally. Gord Lewis started the ball rolling for the homesters at 7.16 of the first period on a pass from Minton to put the Clippers in the lead. Leaside however stormed back in the later stages of the session with two goals to momentarily set Stouffville back on their heels. Sinclair and Brankston scored only 21 seconds apart. The Stouffville crew broke free from their checks in the second frame and outscored their rivals by four goals. Rightwinger Frank Stephenson put both clubs back on even terms at 3.10 and Gordie Haddleton put Stouffville back in the driver’s seat to stay with assists going to Bangay and MacIntosh two minutes later. Haddleton fired his second shot at 11.57 and Elwood Small blinked the light from Lewis to give the Clippers a comfortable 5-2 advantage.
The third period saw each team score three goals. Bangay and Stephenson made it 7-3 midway through the final frame but Leaside struck back with two. Stouffville ran into some dangerous penalties in the later stages and in a desperate bid to get back in the game, the Leaside coach pulled the goalie. Al Leaside’s hopes were dashed when Bangay snared a loose puck and drove in the length of the ice squarely in the empty net. Although he didn’t score, centreman Ken McNeil turned in a sensational performance as he forechecked the Leaside attack almost continually while the Clippers played with men in the penalty box. RED WINGS MAKE BID FOR PEEWEE HONOURS
Don Haynes’ Detroit Red Wings are making a determined bid to capture the Stouffville Lions Peewee championship. On Saturday afternoon they downed Canadiens 7-5 to climb into first place. Haynes and Malcolm were the top marksmen for the winners with McCullough, Baston and Malloy notching singles. The Montreal goals were shared among five players, Lynn McMullen Roy Lewis, Murray Heisey, Don Tran and Mike Epworth. Canadiens pulled their goaltender in the final minute but the move backfired as rightwinger Larry Malloy flipped the puck into the open corner. Harold Harper, centre on the Canadien third line was one of the games stars although he failed to score. Haynes turned in a steady effort for the Wings.
New York Rangers coached by Bill Lennox pulled up into first place contention by edging the Maple Leafs 4-3. Wayne Pennanen was a standout star for the winners with two tallies. Don Neal and Ron Stuart notched singles. Norm Hendricks and Herbie Dawson fired the Hawk goals. In a desperate effort to even the score Hawk coach Bill Bockmaster pulled goalie Grensted from the cage and threw forward Herb Dawson into contest but his club failed score.
In the other game Boston Bruins under the coaching of John Davis came through with an important victory. They overpowered the Hawks 6-2. Wayne and Ron Hedges paced the winners attack with all six of the club’s tallies. Hedges scored four while Redshaw fired two. Thomas in the Boston net turned in one of his best puck-stopping displays as he warded off the Hawks attackers time and time again. Alan Boyd and Mike Mcstravick produced the Chicago tallies.

CARDS WIN ONTARIO CROWN
Trim Wheatley 6-3 in Final
Stouffville’s Jr. ‘C’ Cardinals are the new all-Ontario champions. The Cinderella club eclipsed a twin-series comeback by chalking up a 6-3 victory over Wheatley on Saturday afternoon. The “rubber” game was staged on neutral grounds at Port Dover. Barber, the Winner Righthander Harry Barber started and finished the nine inning contest. With the exception of a fourth inning lapse, he fired excellent ball.
He whiffed 12 Wheatley batsmen and walked only two. He was clipped for seven safeties. In addition to his fine defensive performance, the local curveballer belted two singles and drove in two runs.
Triple,
Key Blow
Long-ball slugger, Gord Eckardt delivered the key hit of the game. The big first-sacker uncorked a long centrefield triple in the third inning with the bases jammed. Three runners, Bob Stover, Don Haynes and Ross Madill romped home to score. Eckardt’s drive sailed an estimated 400 feet towards the outfield fence. The fielder retrieved the ball and on the relay to third base, the Stouffville runner was safe by an eyelash. He later crossed the plate when Eric Barber’s infield grounder was bobbled.
Early Shower
Wheatley starter, Bill Nevills was bombarded in the early innings. He was knocked out of the box in the third. His mates gave him rather feeble support and committed a total of five errors in two and one-third innings. The big right hander, who hurled a stingy five-hitter here in the opener, lacked control. He walked three men and was noticeably wild on numerous occasions.
Good Relief
Rightfielder Bill Knox took over from Nevills in the third. He twirled good ball and allowed Stouffville batters only two hits. In spite of his efforts, he delivered the fatal pitch to Gord Eckardt who promptly poled the ball into the daisies to clear the sacks. He retired the locals in order in the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th. Harry Barber tapped out a single in the ninth but was left stranded.
Standing Ovation
A large crowd of Stouffville supporters rose in unison to applaud Ted Suzuki’s sensational catch in deep centrefield. The “Mickey Mantle” play came in the sixth inning. Wheatley’s Brian Poulter socked a tremendous clout back near the outfield fence. Stouffville speedster. Suzuki took off at the crack of the bat and pulled down the drive with an over-the-shoulder catch. The put-out ended the inning.
Double Play
John Little’s sparkling double play in the fifth inning appeared to give pitcher Barber the necessary confidence to clinch the victory. With runners parked on second and third and only one out, Larry Liberock sliced a well-hit ball at leftfielder John Little. The Cardinal outfielder shifted to his left, grabbed the ball and fired a perfect strike to second- sacker Lynn Taylor. Nevills was picked off by ten feet. The sparkling defensive play halted a Wheatley rally and held the opposition off the score sheet.
Other Hits
In addition to Barber’s two hits and Eckardt’s long triple, two other Card batsmen bagged singles. Ted Suzuki tapped out a single in the first and Ross Madill poked out a hit in the third. Bill Nevills was Wheatley’s top batter with a pair of singles. Don Rivard belted a triple and Wayne Ives bashed a double.
Strong Fan Support
Stouffville spectators outnumbered Wheatley fans by ten to one. Only four supporters made the 130 mile trip from the Lake Erie centre. Both teams encountered strong outfield cross-winds that played havoc with well-hit balls. Curveballer Barber found it difficult to use his sharp-breaking stuff agains the stiff breezes. In spite of the 30 mile per hour gusts, he registered 12 strike outs. He racked up a total of 40 strike outs in the three game series.
Mob Pitcher
Battery mates, Harry Barber and Don Haynes were literally mobbed by both fans and players. Coach Murray Stewart was vaulted up on the shoulders of his proteges and lustily cheered. An across-town motor cavalcade completed the championship celebrations. The majority of players are still eligible for Junior competition next season. LOCAL TRIO WINS MULOCK TROPHY
Eleanor Crossen skipped the winning Ladies Trebles rink for the Mulock Trophy at Newmarket last week. Mrs. Elgin Wagg and Mrs. George Middleton were the other members of this rink. Because of rain, the
third game could not be completed. Mrs. Hoover, Mrs. Wallace and Mrs.Laushway were also among the 2-game winners. The one-win prize went to Mrs. Birkett, Mrs. Boadway and Mrs. Storey. VIPOND LEADS BROOKLIN TO LACROSSE TITLE
Doug “Tip” Vipond, a former defenceman with the Stouffville Clippers, paced the Brooklin Intermediate Lacrosse Club to the Ontario title on Saturday night. With a 12-6 win over Owen Sound Indians, Vipond potted four goals and picked up one assist. Three of his four tallies were fired in the final frame. Bob Cherry, Bob Carnegie and Bill Shortt each notched a pair. Charlie Grandy and Jim Cherry collected singles. Harry Kazarian, a former defenceman with the Owen Sound Mercurys, picked up three assists.

That was a real heartening display Stouffville Clippers put on against the Peterboro champs here Monday night, and one which will certainly bring them bigger and bigger crowds as the season progresses. The Clippers were never behind during the entire game, and they have several outstanding players who showed themselves to be real opportunists around the net.
On both Wednesday and Saturday night skaters from near and far flocked to the new arena. Over 400 skated merrily over gleaming surface on the first night and cramped feet and aching bones only created an urge to return on the following Saturday. The music was good as well as the ice, so you who haven’t tried on the blades yet had better sharpen them up and come out with crowd this week. BILL BALL MOTORS PUT UP TROPHY

(
After dropping their first game with the Legions at Peterboro, our local Clippers came back strong to hold the northern champions to be 7-7- draw. The locals looked like a different club as they forged ahead into the club as they forged ahead into the enemy zone on many occasions. Stouffville led all the way until with only a few minutes to play Montgomery of the Legion tied the score in a close in play around the net. Joey Irvine in the local cage played an outstanding game catching and kicking out many impossible shots. Polly Minton also turned in a good game making one of the nicest solo rushes if the game. Picking up the puck at his own blue line, Polly twisted and turned by opposing players and drove a shot past skates of the Legion goalie. If our local club improves as much in the next few weeks as they have since their last home appearance we feel sure the fans are in for many nights of thrills during the coming season. Thomas, another newcomers, picked up three goals, and was a standout with his bursting speed. FREE SKATING FOR YOUNGEST EVERY SATURDAY AFTERNOON
The Stouffville Athletic Club is providing free skating on Saturday afternoon from 1.30 to 3.30 p.m. for youngest under twelve years old, at the new Arena. This fine piece of work has been done for the children of the home and district for several seasons.
It’s a real opportunity for younger tots to learn to skate, and provides time for them, leaving evenings free for the older skaters. There is considerable risk of an accident with small children skating on Wednesday and Saturday nights with four to five hundred on the ice, and the provision for this special Saturday afternoon time it is hoped will alleviate this.

CLIPPERS EDGE COLLINGWOOD 5-4
(
On Monday night Stouffville Clippers staged by far their best game of the season downing Collingwood Shipbuilders 5-4 before a good holiday crowd.
The local boys played with a grim determination to win although the opposition were a much heavier aggregation.
The Clippers took advantage go every break and ran in two goals without a reply from the visitors. Gord Lewis, still goal hungry, sank the rubber for both markers formulate and Baker.
Only four minutes had passed in the second frame when Lewis again set up Couch who made no mistake with a close in shot. Seeing the lighter but faster team blinking the light on three occasions the Shipbuilders came back and scored two in a row, Collingwood’s burly defenceman beating Mulholland both times. Near the end of the period, Polly Minton kept his team two up on a neat passing play from Clarke and Bradbury to end the period 4-2 in favour of the Clippers.
Gault opened the final frame with a goal on a pass from Lewis but Collingwood were not through. Portland scored from Sandell at 15.55 and Kirby added another three minutes later to put their right back in the running. The Clippers held on desperately and went to the dressing room with three straight wins to their credit.
The win put the Clippers in first place in the league standing with seven points. Markham and Toronto Meteors are tied for second with five points each. However, Markham has a game in hand, postponed from last Friday, and an expected win on Tuesday in Midland seemed certain to put them on even terms again with Stouffville.
Big Jack Portland, a 225-pounder on the Collingwood defence was watched with interest by the eight hundred fans who saw the game. Portland was a standout defenceman along with Eddie Shore for the Boston Bruins some years ago/. he also saw some service with Chicago Black Hawks and Montreal Canadians, and represented Montreal at the NHL speed skating trials back in his heyday.
Harry Morrison and Jim Granger did the officiating and kept the rough artist pretty well in check.

FOURTEEN TEAMS NOW IN TRI-COUNTY
Fourteen teams have signals their intention of entering the Tri-County, three less than last year. All teams had presentation at last week’s meeting except Cambray and Cameron. The league will split into three sections, eastern, central and western. The east group will be Lindsay, Bobcaygeon, Fenelon Falls, Cambray and Cameron. The central section will be Little Britain, Sonya, Woodpile, Manilla and Valentia. The western group will be Port Perry, Stouffville, Sutton and Sunderland. The longer schedule will permit the teams to get in ore games than to get in more games in the previous years. A new idea was suggested in the way of a consolation playoffs series for teams not making the playoffs. One of the brewing firms has offered to put up a trophy for this series. The western section of the Tri -County league opens May 29, with two games, Sutton at Stouffville and Port perry at Sunderland.

Stouffville 6 Port Perry 4
Stouffville led off well in the game and was always on top throughout the game. It wasn’t until the last of the seventh that Stouffville was in trouble. Two were out and two Port men were on bases. “Big” Bill Harper was at bat and looked business. Miller breezed one in and Harper teed off on the ball for what looked like a sure double. However, Cook, at second moved hard to the right as the ball was hit and really made a sparkling catch to end the game. The Beavers started off in the top of first with but a walk and no more. Miller kept Port at a stand-still in the bottom half with nothing across. Ted Cadieux got a nice hit over short-stop to put him on first in the second.

Bobby Hassard, the lead-off man, reached first on an error in the third. Butch Schell scarified Bob to second but was thrown out himself at first.

Stouffville added another run in the fourth when Minton walked Port perry was held to one hit in the fourth, a two bagger by Lowery. Harper was intentionally walked by Miller so that a weal batter could be gotten and things worked out according to plan as Haley flied out to squelch the rally.

Aurora 13 Stouffville 0
The same Juniors who walloped the Intermediates really walloped the Monarchs. The Aurora pitching was shared by J. Simmons, Steve Andrews and R. Simmons.

JUVENILE MONARCHS ALMOST BLANK SUTTON
Stouffville 13 Sutton 1

Both pitchers looked like big-timers who had been pitching for twenty years. SUNDERLAND BESTED BY STOUFFVILLE AGAIM
Stouffville 7 Sunderland 4
Last Thursday night was the time and Community Park at Sunderland was the place. The Sunderland club seemed to hit Miller quite well but couldn’t succeed in scoring. Miller looked good for the Beavers, striking out ten b taters. Between the two Tiger pitchers, Campbell and Farrell, only four strike-outs were accounted for. L. Schell, lead-off man, flied out to the right-fielder in the first.

Jennings, the eighth batter, struck out. For Sunderland, two runs were scored off three hits and one error and this made the score three to two for the Beavers.

Sunderland worked another hit and a walk off Miller in the second but no runs were scored.

COOK PINNED SUTTON DOWN WITH NINETEEN STRIKEOUTS
Stouffville 4 Sutton 3
Whew! that was too close for comfort believe you me. It’s too bad that television isn’t broadcasted from Memorial Park. The Sutton squad really flew high and the Stouffville squad barely crawling until the ninth innings when they squeezed out a 4-3 win in a league fixture with the Lake Simcoe squad. In the first for Sutton, it was three runs off two hits. Two errors were committed by Stouffville. Two Sutton batters struck out. Stouffville collected nothing in their half. No runs, no hits and no errors as George Holburn allowed nothing. Cook worked hard on the Stouffville hill all the way striking out seventeen batters. In the second for Stouffville, not a hit was collected but one walk was given up pt Wagg, the Beaver back-stop. Two more Sutton batters went down swinging in the third as Earl Cook, former pro, found every corner on the plate and a few more besides. In the third for Stouffville, one hit only was collected off Holburn’s
offering. It was the same story in the fourth for Sutton as Cook mowed down the opposition with three strike-outs. Holburn held the Beavers to infield pops and grounders in their bat. In the fifth, one more strike-out was recorded for Cook, and other two batters grounding out to Butch Schell at second. Stouffville had little to brag about in their half-innings as three men struck out. The Beavers broke the jinx in the sixth when Porky Schell crossed the plate with their first run. The seventh for Sutton saw three in a row fall under the count of “strike three” as Earl Cook pitched marvelous ball. George Holburn gave up one hit in the seventh but his mates retired the rest of the Beaver batters. Schell replaced Wagg behind the plate and the move had a steadying affect.There was a minor squabble in Sutton’s half of the eighth. Learoyd hit a grand slam triple, and evidently he didn’t touch second. Learoyd contested his case with base Umpire Lew Murphy, but Murphy gave him the cold thumb. Stouffville eked out other run in their half
to make the score three to two for Sutton. Sutton went down swinging in the ninth with the aid of fire-ball Cook. It was the last of the ninth and do or die for Stouffville. Jennings, the first batter, struck out. K. Laushway hit safety. Minton struck out but L. Schell reached second on an error to score the tying run. Hassard clouted a long fly to score Schell and win the game. Earl Cook is running Miller a close race for Strike-out King with nineteen in the game. Cook, also gave up but three hits. Holburn gave up six. GIRLS’ LEAGUE
(Jim Thomas)
The girls’ league seems to be well under way with all teams hitting the column this week. At home our local girls went down before the hard hitting bats of Victoria Square. The Square seems headed for the top rung unless the other teams catch fire shortly. Thornhill after taking their first game from Peaches were trounced soundly by this same club 11-1 at Unionville. “Flo” Anderson went all the way for the seventh concession gals and aided the winning cause with a three bagger later in the game. The Yonge Street girls with their supporters became a little too excited on many occasions and had to be quieted down by the umpires handling the game. This week sees Victoria Square take on Thornhill in a home and home encounter while Stouffville and Peaches square off twice, here on Tuesday and over at Unionville on Friday evening. Here’s hoping the local supporters get behind their respective clubs and give them the support they deserve. We are unable to give any give them unable to give any exact standing of the various clubs because some have played as many as four of five games over the other teams.

MIDGET PLAYOFF ROUND WITH PORT PERRY ALL TIED UP
(By Jim Thomas)
Failure to stay on the ice in the last period on Monday night, cost the local Midgets their second playoff game with Port Perry, and tied up the round at one game each. The final score was Port Perry 4, Stouffville 3. an identical score with Saturday night in Stouffville The game was deadlocked 3-all as the final round started, but the local boys’ penalties and agile goal-keeping by the Port netminder
spelled the difference. The third and deciding game of the series will be played in Port Perry this Thursday night. Displaying too much power and speed the local Midgets went one game up in their best of two out of three game series with Port Perry as they edged their eastern rivals 4-3 on Saturday night. The boys set a fast pace throughout the entire sixty minutes and only for the great work of Owens in the visitor’s net the score would have been doubled. The young netminder turned in a terrific performance stopping what appeared to be sure goals. Simpson of the locals proved to be the hero of the night as he shot the puck into the twine for the winning tally after eight minutes had gone by in the third period. Port Perry has a good chance to tie the count midway through the final twenty minutes but Hallman in the local cage pulled off a sensational stop with his glove to keep his team in front. Don Forgie started the ball rolling just thirty-seven seconds after the opening face off with assist going to Beverley and Lewis. Play see-sawed back and forth until 15.55 when the Scugog squad tied the final count with Walker blinking the light from Peel. Three minutes later beverley of the locals put his team in the lead again on a pass from Forgie and the period ended with Port Perry trailing 2-1. The visitors came back stronger in the second frame and showed that they were not going down to defeat without a fight. After five minutes had passed Dusty put both teams on even terms again and at 8.33 Ashenhurst put the visitors one goal up, In the dying minutes of the period Lewis came to the rescue, beating Owens with a blueline drive and put both teams on even terms for the third time in the game. The third period started with the locals putting on terrific pressure to good advantage playing the puck back to them time and time again in hopes that one shot might find the target. At 8.22 Simpson netted what proved to be the winning tally after a pile up around the Port Perry cage. Owens had the puck stopped but couldn’t clear it in time to save the goal. Forfar picked up an assist on the play. Both teams battled hard during the rest of the twenty minutes but neither could capitalize on their plays. Lewis, Harmon and Forgie turned in a good game for the home team while Owens was by far the best for the visitors handling over twice the shots as Hallman in the locals cage. The two teams hook up again in Port Perry for the second contest and should Stouffville be the victors they will be ready for the next round of their playoffs but in the case of the Port team make a comeback a third and final game will be needed. BANTAMS DROP FROM PLAYOFF FIGHT AS AJAX WINS 6-0 AND 6-2
(By Jim Thomas)
The local Bantam entry has been eliminated by Ajax in two straight games losing the first by a score of 6-0 and dropping the second on Saturday night 6-2. Ajax counted one in the first, three in the second, and two more in the final period while the locals found the target for one tally in the first and added another in the third period.
Rowland blinked the light for the opening goal but the locals fought back to tie the score as Don Haynes bulged the twine before the end of the period. Rowland who was the big gun for the Ajax squad, firing four of his team’s six markers, notched his second and third markers in the first half of the second frame and Squelcher made it 4-1 to end the scoring of the period. Stouffville scored their second and final goal of the game as Ron Wilson put the puck in the net for the first marker of the third frame. Boyd added another for the visitors and Rowland tallied the last goal of the game and his forth of the night to give Ajax the contest and the series in two straight games. The winners now move on to do battle with Port Perry who have been given a bye into the playoffs.

CLIPPERS SLUMP CONTINUES WIN IN OVERTIME FROM ALLISTON
Despite the fact that they managed to down Alliston Royals, 5-2 on Monday night, it required ten minutes of overtime to do it. The Clippers are definitely in a slump. and had their fans nearly frantic with their poor showing against the last place senior club. Manager Kewley of Alliston is still hot for an argument, and held up Monday night’s game for nearly ten minutes while he pressed his claim that a rest period was allowed before the overtime session began. He even went so far as to tell referee Harry Morrison that Mr. Panter, O.H.A. boss, had told him that no overtime was necessary at all if the teams didn’t wish to play. This bit of nonsense will likely cost him a trip to the O.H.A. carpet. Stouffville took a 1-0 lead in the first period, McCrone taking a pass from Stark who just stepped on the ice after serving a penalty in time to relay the puck to the fast-moving McCrone. Hopper made it 2-0 as the second got underway, getting a corner passout from Couch. Booker matched this effort for Alliston making the score at the end of the second 2-1. Alliston actually outplayed the Clipper crowd at times, as they raced all over the ice like a flock of sheep. After numerous close-in tries at both ends of the rink, the Royals finally knotted the count at 16.23 of the last period. Only in the overtime did Stouffville show definite superiority, and bagged a trio of goals in the ten minutes. Sayliss, Gibson and Lewis were the marksmen. The game was marred by no less than twenty penalties, with as many as four players jamming the penalty box at one time.

It’s a big “if” but if Stouffville wins their remaining three games and Wellington loses two of their final five, the Clippers will earn a berth in the money series. SPEED SKATERS COMPETE

MIDGET HUMBLE BOBCAYGEON 9-3; FORSYTH NETS 3
Roger forsyth fired a three goal hat trick and Jim Knox potted a pair to pace the Midgets to a 9-3 victory over Bobcaygeon on Thursday night in the Stouffville Arena. Single tallies came from the sticks of Warren Hendricks, Gary Yates, Jim Wagg and Peter Stover.
The homesters carried a six goal lead into the return tilt that was scheduled for the Bobcaygeon rink on Wednesday.
Due to a severe snowstorm that blanketed the area, the contest did not start until 10 o’clock. It was slated to begin at 8:45 pm. The Bobcaygeon players and management remained over night in Stouffville and returned home on Friday morning.
Stouffville outshot their rivals 52-23. In spite of the lopsided figures, the local entry did not have complete domination of the play. Bobcaygeon checked the Stouffville forwards fiercely and the majority of their passing plays were broken up at the blueline.
Only in the final period did the homesters break the game wide open. They counted five goals. The visitors notched one.
Possibly the most significant factor in the contest was the fine performance of third-string forward, Gary Yates. He entered the game almost “cold” in third period, due to an injury to team mate Grant Pascoe.
Rightwinger Barry McLean dropped back to a rearguard spot and coach Hal Gibson tossed Yates into the frontline fray. Within the space of eight minutes, he fired one goal and picked two assists. He worked on a line with centreman Roger Forsyth and winger, Jim Wagg.
Ron Oliver and John Nicholls were the Bobcaygeon marksmen. The contest was cleanly played. Only two penalties were handed out. Both went to Stouffville. Peter Stover and Stan Feasby served time for minor infractions. PEEWEE ENTRY LOSES 3-2 IN PLAYOFF TILT; BILLY FARTHING STARS
Billy Farthing, a small but agile netminder, turned in a fine performance in the Stouffville cage on Monday night in spite of his teams 3-2 loss to Woodbridge. It was the first game in the newly-organized OMHA Peewee zone playoffs. The goals-to-count series will now swing back to Woodbridge ice.
Goalie Farthing had no chance to stop the three pucks that slipped past him. Woodbridge scored once in each of the three periods. Chris Hatton, Barry Turnbull and Gerry Byle were the marksmen for the winners.
Stouffville started rather slowly but they appeared to gain more confidence as the contest progressed. In the dying minutes of the final frame they peppered shot after shot at the Woodbridge net but could not score.
Keith Beta sizzled a drive off the post. Blair Wagg, Bruce Mehaffey and Eric Hamilton all had good chances but the puck either missed the target or was turned aside.
Eric Hamilton and Donald Smith scored the stouffville goals.
At 8:15 of the first period, Hatton of Woodbridge scooped a rebound shot over the prone form of goalie Farthing to put the visitors out front 1-0. Turnbull made it 2-0 completing a fine three-way passing play.
Larry Manuel of Woodbridge had a wide-open chance to break up the game when he drifted in alone on goalie Farthing but the local puck-stopper blocked his drive.
Stouffville moved into the goalscoring spotlight at 19:30 of the second frame. Hugh Boyd of Woodbridge shoved the puck into his own cage. Eric Hamilton was given credit for the tally.

MARG. SMITH SPARKS STOUFFVILLE GIRLS TO WIN OVER NEWMARKET Lead-off batter Marg Smith may be one of the lightest performers on the Stouffville girls team but with a bat she packs plenty of power. She proved this on Wednesday night when she belted out four hits to spark the homesters to a 16-10 win over Newmarket. The Stouffville left fielder is no long-ball hitter. She concentrates however in slipping ground ball singles through the infield that are good for at least one or perhaps two bases. On Wednesday she connected for three singles and a double. She was robbed of another extra-base blow in the eighth inning. Short stop Dana McGrath gloved a line drive that was headed for the daisies. Jane Cook, Gwenn Kennedy, Ila Redshaw, Doreen Alexander, Erma Redshaw, Joyce Roberts, Bonnie Kennedy.

McLean Shines in Defeat — Stouffville Juniors were unsuccessful in their opening foot ball game against Markham. Stouffville under the direction of lanky quarter-back Jim Hill in the first half. In the second play of the game McLean galloped 65 yards on a pass play only to have it called back. Markham broke through for a touchdown in the second quarter after a strong Stouffville defense had held for several onslaughts. John Smithson and Peter O’Connor were defensive standouts for our squad, while Gary Gall rushed effectively on offense. Markham made the score 10-0 with a field goal in the final minutes. After the game, Coach Rehill stated, “It really was a close game disregarding the score. McLean’s punting under pressure was tremendous and our defensive looks terrific. When that offense clicks, we’ll start to win games.” Stouffville’s second game will be at Bayview High on Thursday.

GAME POSTPONED
Owing to wet weather the return game in the O.B.A.A. play-down with Peterborough is postponed form Wednesday to Saturday, Sept. 15th at Memorial Park, Stouffville, at 3 p.m.
If Stouffville wins this game they will be tied with Peterborough and the winners will meet either Leamington or Niagara Falls for the Provincial championship O.B.A.A.
The locals deserve the support of a big crowd of fans.
Mr. and Mrs S.W. Hastings took in the ball game at Peterborough Saturday spending the weekend with the relatives there. PETERBOROUGH WINS A CLOSE GAME
After winning four straight games in the Intermediate O.B.A.A.series finals ( 2 each from Wayomacks and Penetang) the Stouffville nine suffered defeat at the hands of Peterborough by a score of 2-5 in the first of the home and home games with the city. The game was played on Saturday afternoon last before some 1500 spectators, including a quite a number of supporters who journeyed from Stouffville to see the game.
The return game will be played in Stouffville this week, and after seeing Saturday’s game we predict that Stouffville should come out victors in this game.
Earl Cook on the mound was effective against the seasoned Peterborough batters, and struck out 11 men, and that’s good enough to win the average game with any kind of field support. Earl didn’t get that support in the fifth innings, which lost the game for Stouffville.
We have it from the manager of the Peterborough nine that Earl Cook gave them the hardest battle they have had this season, and they have defeated such teams as Port Hope and Napanee. On the other hand Scotty Maudsley for the home brews gave Mather’s nine a good argument.
Stouffville got away to a good start when H. Nichols thew high on a grounder batted by Earl Glendenning and he made second. Button struck out, and Reesor popped to Maudsley. H. Cook singled to right and Glendenning scored on the hit. Meredith singled to right and made first. M. Glendenning fanned.
For the Petes Hillier looped the ball over first and made the base, Rogers grounded to second forcing Hillier. Maudsley grounded to first, and Cook threw to second, but Meredith dropped the pill. Rogers finally counted when H. Cook threw from first to third in bad style. Next up threw out on fouls and one fan. Score 1-1.
The second and third innings were shut-outs on both sides.
Beginning the fourth Stouffville counted again and took the lead. Hillier at short allowed Meredith’s grounder to go through, but took Scully’s throw to force the runner, following Glendenning’s grounder. Glendenning was in turn forced by Pete Glendenning by the same pair. Scully dropped a nice peg and let the runner to second. After fielding McPhaden’s drive to field, Hillier threw wild to Barry and Glendenning scored home. Maudsley threw out Cook to end the play.
The Petes were shut out in the end of the fourth and Stouffville received same treatment in the first of the fifth.
Stouffville had a bad lapse in the Petes fifth, and they allowed the costly four runs H. Cook at first failed to hold throw from the pitching block, and allowed Hillier safe on first. Rogers slapped one into left field, sending Hillier to third. Maudsley popped to short, but on Moore’s grounder Meredith fumbled the ball allowing Hillier to score. Scully sent a long sacrifice to right field, scoring Rogers. Nichols drove one at first and made it safe on it too, while Moore made it home. Reesor who tried to stem a man going to second threw the pill into centre field and another run counted. Cook fanned the next man up and retired the side.
Both teams were shut out in the remaining innings. Stouffville broke away however in the seventh, and made things mighty anxious for the Petes. Pete Glendenning got a base when he slammed the ball at Maudsley’s shin hard, McFadden grounder hopped through Scully’s legs. Two on and nobody out. E. Cook grounded to Maudsley, who pegged to third and cut off Glendenning. Harold Glendenning fanned, and Button loaded the bases with a single to centre. All three runners were making to home when Max Reesor stepped to the bat only to drive a grounder to first and the side was retired.

MARKHAM VICTORS OVER WILLOWDALE
Two goals in the first period gave Markham Intermediates a 2 to 0 victory over Willowdale on Monday night at Maple Leaf Gardens and also gave them the O.H.A., play-of round by 4 to 3. In the first game at Markham the homesters were beaten by 3 to 2.
Monday night’s tussle was a thrilling affair throughout, both teams displaying plenty os speed and aggressiveness. Rennie was the initial scorer and his tally came as the result of a combination dash with Stewart, a defencman.
Hare, an alternate forward, accounted for the other goal of the game when he took Reesor’s pass to the goalmouth and rammed it past Carey, who had practically no chance to save.
While these counters were the only goals of the game, the players in no way slackened. Lunau in Markham’s goal had a busy evening and it was his fine work that held his mates’ lead intact.
In addition to winning their own district, Markham has the North Toronto championship to their credit.

LOCAL TEAM WIN PRIZE AT BEETON
The local club have yet to taste defeat as they took their second league game of the season from Uxbridge on Wednesday last by a score of 16-2. Hodgins pitched a fine game throughout and allowed only a few scattered hits.
The Club added still further to their laurels on Monday when they entered the tournament at Beeton and carried home a handsome cash award as the first prize. In their opening game they defeated Bond Head by a score of 9-0. Alliston who were the second opponents proved a little tougher, the game going to 13 innings when the locals finally squeezed out a 2-1 game. In the final chapter they came up against Palgrave and were again winners. Jack Pennock proved to be the hero of the hour pitching wonderful ball throughout the first two games. In the game against Alliston only nine men faced him in the 4th, 5th, and 6th innings. Bill Clark took the mound in the lat game and proved quite effective.
Next O.B.A. game Beaverton at Stouffville, Wednesday, June 12.

LOCALS LOSE TO SUNDERLAND
The local pitchers were pounded freely in their game with Sunderland on Wednesday last, the northerners slamming out nine off Pennock and five from Clendenning who took the mound for the last two innings. Sunderland started the game rolling with two hits coupled with an error they scored twice. The locals retaliated with one on the third but failed to count further until the ninth when they managed to squeeze in one on hits by Boadway and Clendenning. Sunderland tallied twice in the fourth, four times in the seventh and twice in the ninth, Allen leading the way at bat.

STOUFFVILLE TIES BEAVERTON
On Friday last the local nine played their tightest league game in the season so far when they squeezed out a one all tie with Beaverton. Beaverton scored their run in the first innings when with two out they slammed a single which coupled with errors by Clendenning and Cook netted them their lone tally. In the fifth with two out Pennock got a single over second. Boadway also singled sending him to third while Button drove hard over short to bring in the tying run.
The game was called at the beginning of the eighth on account of rain with both teams still struggling for that winning counter. Pennock did a good job for the locals allowing but one hit and striking out nine in the seven innings.

STOUFFVILLE WINS HOLIDAY GAME
On Wednesday last Stouffville took a fall out of Sutton to the tune of 5-4. The game was very close as the score would indicate both teams putting forth all they had.
Stouffville took first blood in the third when Reesor and Boadway walked in succession, to cross the plate on hits by Button and Cook. Sutton retaliated in the fourth when Cuverwell clouted one over short, Hamilton was out at first, McKenzie walked and Pearson sent a long fly out to Holden which he missed, letting two runs. Carpenter also hit safe to make it three and put the visitors one up. The locals tied it up in the fifth, Reesor walked, Boadway flied out, Button hit over third and Cook hit over second. Reesor tried to stretch it for two bases and was out at the plate. With two out Clendenning hit into deep centre bringing Button in to tie up the game. Stouffville made sure in the seventh when they added two more. Sutton had men on in each of the final innings but just failed to bring them home.
Reg. Button recorded four its in five times at bat which is an exceptionally good record, while Reesor walked four times in five trips to the plate, Pennock had ten strike-outs while Smith and Walker the two Sutton twirlers only counted three between them.

Sutton 8 4 2

Stouffville 4, Port Perry 2
The locals made it two straight on the holiday when they defeated Port Perry by the score of 4-2. Stouffville scored all their runs in the second innings. Reesor the first man up was out on a ground ball to the pitcher; Hood hit, Holden walked and Pennock went down on an error, scoring Hood and Holden, Boadway walked and Lou Lehman clipped out a double to score two more runs. Hodgins and Cook struck out to retire the side. Port Perry scored one in the sixth on a hit by Dishan and one in the eighth on a hit by McMillan.
Stouffville was very very fortunate in having the Lehman brothers return to the line-up and it is hoped that that they may be seen in action a good deal from now on. Pennock turned in a fine performance on the mound for the locals, striking out 14 men and allowing but three hits.

LOCALS DROP GAME WITH SUNDERLAND
On Wednesday last Stouffville succumbed to an 8-5 defeat at the hands of Sunderland to tie these two teams for first place in the O.B.A. league. Although the local nine took the field with the greatest of confidence the visitors appeared to have the edge from the start. Stouffville made a good start in the second when Clark and clendenning hit safely. Reesor walked and Pennock went down on an error to start off with three runs. This lead was short lived however as the northerners took Pennock for four hits in the third which netted them five runs before the side was retired.
Stouffville scored their final two runs in their half of the third on hits by Cook and Button. Sunderland scored again in the fourth and twice in the eighth to put them in front by three runs. Pennock was relieved in the sixth by B. Lehman who also had some difficulty in stemming the hard-hitting visitors. Junkin replaced Fair for the visitors and had the local sluggers completely stumped.
Keslick umpired the game.
Stouffville had several good chances in the seventh and eighth innings to tie the score, but they faded away hen a couple of poor plays retired the side. A snappy double play by Button and Boadway showed to good advantage in the seventh.

STOUFFVILLE LOSES CLOSE PLAY-OFF GAME
On Monday afternoon Stouffville entered in the O.B.A. play-downs series with Sunderland and dropped the first game by a score of 2-1. It would appear that the Sunderland aggregation are the jinx for the locals, since they have not been able to force a win against this team all season.
The afternoon promised well for Stouffville right in the first innings when Clark the first man up lined a double well over second. He was sacrificed to third by Button and crossed the plate on a ball hit by Pennock, which slipped right past the Sunderland third baseman. The locals held well until the fourth innings. Lehman striking out four men in the first three innings. In the fourth Brandon, the first man up, was out at first. Allen poked a hard ground ball down between third and short which was mossed. Philips got the northerners first hit and made it count for a double well out over Pennock’s head in left field. Allen scored and Philips scored on a hit by McGill the next man up. Johnston and Oliver were thrown out at first to retire the side.
Stouffville had one big chance to tie it up in the seventh after two men were out but with men on first and third, Junkins was successful in striking out Button to retire the side. Both pitchers turned in splendid efforts. Sunderland getting only four hits off Lehman and seven off Junkin.

LOCALS DROP OUT
On Wednesday last Stouffville bowed to defeat to Sutton to give the northern town a two out of three decision and the right to meet Sunderland for the York-Ontario League Championship. Sutton took command from the start and were only once in very serious danger of losing their lead. Doug. Bradd on the mound for Stouffville in his third play-off game gave a stellar performance until the fifth when he weakened and was replaced by Bruce Lehman who held the winners in hand until the end. Bradd struck out eight in his five innings. Sutton combined air-tight fielding and a few well placed hits o win the game by a score of 10 to 5. Heron did the twirling for Sutton until the seventh when he was replaced by Doc. Leroy, Stouffville proved very weak at the bat something unusual for them when playing Sutton while several bad errors allowed the opposition to mount a considerable score before the locals could get going.
A fine turn out from Stouffville gave the boys good rooting support.

200 PHEASANTS ARE RELEASED
Markham Township bids fair to become an ideal game sanctuary before long. Last week the government (Dept. of Games and Fisheries) released in the municipality some 200 hundred pheasants which when unmolested will add to their numbers over a year or two in a amazing manner.
Simultaneous with the releasing of these birds 500 signs arrived to be posted about the municipality apprising hunters that the township is a game preserve, and carrying of fire-arms or hunting within its borders is forbidden. The township has had additional signs made on their own order of a larger design and these will also be place in conspicuous places, so that there will be no excuse for anyone to plead ignorance of the law.
Some fifty game wardens have been named for the municipality, whose business it will be to see that the township is protected from hunters. With so many wardens charged with this duty, it is hard to see how anyone will successfully fire a gun in the municipality without one of them hearing it.

HUNTERS RETURN WITH VARYING LUCK
The open season for deer hunting closed on Saturday and this was the signal for the return of the local hunters after two weeks or there about in the northern woods. Only moderate success was met with during the hunting time, although it was not the scarcity of deer which caused the poor luck. Bill Sanders and Robert Snowball admit to seeing plenty of the fleet-footed animals, but they didn’t have the luck to shoot straight. Bob can give a close shave, but he couldn’t so much as trim a hair off a deer. These two locals travelled with the Markham Hunt Club which all told only bagged half of their allotment.
Sixteen men in the party with which William Reesor tramped the northern woods came back with eleven deer.

LIVE SKUNKS AND SKUNK HIDES
Presenting what was purported to be a game warden’s badge, two Other men succeeded in inducing Bob Overs of Ballantrae to hand over a bundle of skunk hides. The man who impersonated an officer of the law contended that Bob had taken the skunks “out of season” or something of that sort, and he would have to confiscate them until the matter came up in a court hearing.
Bob, so Constable Windsor reports, became suspicious and while handing over to the tricksters, he took the number of their car license. The plated were later found to have been stolen from an Oldsmobile in Goderich and attached to an old Star which the live “skunks” were driving.
All other people should be warned by this experience, as it is more than likely the trick will be tried more than once.

HUNTERS FINED FOR POACHING IN MARKHAM
The first fine to be registered under the new Games Protection Act recently invoked in the Township of Markham was made this week when Magistrate Keith in the county court imposed $10 and costs on four hunters picked up in the municipality by Deputy Game Warden Stiver and Harper.
The hunters, were carrying fire arms, and were on a shooting expedition when the officers got them. They had no license for the guns or for shooting rabbits in the municipality were forced to pay $20 each to cover the cost of the court.
It has been said that the recently enacted game law for Markham Township would never be obeyed and that it lacked “teeth”. Well, there are now four Toronto men who will not agree with this for they felt the “teeth”and their pocket books have felt a drain, no doubt.

STOUFFVILLE TROUNCE MARKHAM 7-2 IN OPENING JUNIOR TILT
Carrying the play to the visitors for the full sixty minutes, Stouffville Gave Markham a 7-2 lacing in the opening Junior O.H.A. game here on Monday night.
The locals outplayed and out skated the southern aggregation in every period, and showed considerable class, thanks to the careful training of Coach Crouch.
The first period saw Markham bottled up in their own end most of the time and only the stellar net minding of Patterson kept Stouffville from breaking into their scoring bee earlier. With only five minutes remaining, Bus Taylor, right defence for Stouffville, pushed one into the net from a scramble just in front of the crease, to open the scoring. Penalties in this period were equally divided, two going to each team.
The second twenty minutes was just nicely underway when Ken. Rusnell for Stouffville took a pass at the blue line and sailed in on the left wing to slip a fast one into the far corner of the Markham net. “Jake” Baker made it 3-0 a few minutes later on a nice solo effort. Markham came back swinging which landed them two penalties in rapid succession. Ernie Lawrie, star centre for the visitors finally nicked the twine on a close in shot. This new hoe was short-lived however as “Red” Brillinger stick-handled his way in from the right side to beat Patterson and put his team three up once more.
Stouffville continued to bear down in the last period and after nine minutes of play “Red” drilled another fast one to the upper corner of the net. Ken Rusnell drew a penalty for boarding Lamoreaux but before Markham could capitalize on their advantage, Lamoreaux himself took he hail from Referee Reesor, and Rusnell returned to the ice, to again put the local squad at full strength. With six minutes to play Brillinger broke fast with his wings at his own blue line, took a pass from Austin, side-stepped the defence, and lifted in his third goal of the game. Markham threw four en forward in an effort to cut down the lead, only to have Joe Austin count again on a pass from Russell to make it 7-1. Taylor went to the cooler for tripping, and Ross Lamoreaux, giving Holden no chance to save, slipped in the final counter for Markham, which ended the game 7-2.
Markham seemed completely disorganize at times and were unable to cope with Stouffville’s constant back-checking and fast breaking.
As stars for the visitors we pick centre player Lawrie, and goalie Patterson, and for the home club, right winger “Red” Brillinger and defence man, Bus Taylor.
Penalties were nine, four for Stouffville and five for Markham.

STOUFFVILLE TO MEET AURORA IN FIRST ROUND OF FINALS
Dropping their last game to Scarboro Friday night 7-6 has left Stouffville eligible to meet Aurora in the first round of the play-offs. Home and home games are scheduled for this Wednesday and Friday, goals to count on the round. Although Aurora have beaten the home team in the two league games, it was only by the narrowest of margins, the break definitely accounting for the wins. It is hoped a large representation may be on hand to journey to Aurora on Friday night. Richmond Hill, who tied with Scarboro for fourth place, managed to nose out that outfit on Tuesday in a sudden death game which leaves them ready to meet East York Friday night in their first of home and home games.
Stouffville made a whirl-wind come-back in Agincourt Friday night and all but took the game with Scarboro right out of their lap, having been down 6-0. Scarboro closed the first twenty minutes 2-0. The locals just a little overdid their covering-up and bunching around their own net blocked the view of Charlie Hoover who was given no chance to save on either shot. The second round saw Scarboro just as aggressive as ever, and considerable bungling again by the locals let the count rise four more notches, to 6-0.
Incidentally the locals were short-handed as Bus Taylor was absent from the defence, and this caused considerable shaking up of the lines from time to time. The final period Coach Crouch did get his clicking combination together and they sure went to town, netting six in less than ten minutes, to tie it up. Vic Riddell scored the first two, single handed, while “Red” Brillinger showed real flash of his old form when he banged in four in a row, all on assists from Riddell.
But even this great display of goal getting failed to save the boys from defeat when with only a minute and a half to go Scarboro squeezed in the winning counter on a ganging attack.
There were five penalties , two to Stouffville, Riddell and Harper, and three to Scarboro.one of them being a major. Referee Balyes of Markham officiated.

In one of the best minor league games of the season, Stouffville and Unionville mid gets battled to a 1-1 draw on Monday evening. The game featured end to end rushes by forward lines of both clubs and only the excellent work of the netminders held the score down. Ron Mortimer, Midget sub goalie guarded the twine for the locals in place of the injured Roger Beazley. He turned in his finest effort of the season. Lynn McMullen put Stouffville out front at 3.05 of the first period on a pass from Grant Foreman. Two minutes later John Sanders evened the count. There was no scoring in the second and third periods. There were 11 penalties in the contest, seven to Unionville and four to Stouffville. George Malcolm of Stouffville and Joe Dukes of Unionville were banished with five minute majors, when they be came involved in a brief brawl. The remaining penalties were all for minor offences. NOBLETON WHIPE JUVS. 13-2, PENALTIES – 54 MINS.
A turkey-filled Stouffville Juvenile team were thumped 13-2 by a visiting Nobleton club on Thursday night in a North York League contest. Six players worked off some excess poundage in the final
frame when they became involved in a torrid ten minute brawl. When officials Spencer of Stouffville and Bill Maw of Nobleton finally separated the combatants, a total of two majors and two misconduct
penalties were meted out. Murray Holden and Howard Malcolm each served five minutes in the sin
bin for the local squad. Gord Sampson and Larry Hill were banished with majors for Nobleton. Emmerson, Nobleton netminder, received an automatic ten minute penalty for leaving his cage. Howard Malcolm had minutes tacked onto his for arguing too strenuously with the official.
In spite of the lopsided score , Stouffville held a temporary lead early in the first period. Larry Malloy and Ted Suzuki fired goals seconds apart to give homesters a 2-1 edge. The advantage was short-lived however, as the visitors rapped12 unanswered tallies in first and final frames. Larry Hill paced the Nobleton attack with six goals. Gord Sampson and Ollie Chamberlain each potted a pair. Singles came from the sticks of Lee Mollyneux,Paul Burbridge and Geo. Pilson. Both clubs played much of the third period with players in the cooler. Hardly had the four-man skirmish been settled when Stouffville
defenceman Don Benson and Nobleton’s Tom Hubbard tangled on the boards. Both received majors.
The Stouffville team completely fell apart in the third period. Goalie Bill Asling was given little or no protection and the Nobleton forwards sailed on top of him at will. Nine pucks were whipped into
the cage without a reply from Stouffville. The penalties to key Stouffville players put a serious crimp in their forward line strength. There was little to choose between the clubs. In the first and second periods, Nobleton held a 4-2 edge at the end of the first. Neither club found the target in the middle session.
Fifty-four minutes in penalties were handed out by the officials. This number could have been doubled if the referee had called every miscarriage of the rules. CLIPPERS STEAMROLLER CRUSHES ORANGEVILLE BY SCORE OF 15 TO 1
A Clipper steamroller piloted by Jack Watson crushed a rival Orangeville club 15-1 here on Friday night. The Stouffville squads victory was just as convincing as the score would indicate. They
swarmed over their opposition in every period and their relentless attack rapidly turned the contest into a one-sided rout. Nicholas Again St. Nicholas has gained a reputation for filling stockings with
presents at this time of year but Aurora’s Phil Nicholas delights in filling the oppositions nets full of pucks. For the Clippers second straight home encounter, the speedy forward paced the locals attack.
He fired four goals and picked up as many assists. Two other Aurora stars, Ted Vanderpol and Howard Bullock shared in the goalscoring spree. Vanderpol notched a three goal hat trick while linemate
Bullock potted a pair. Fire Four Although the ex-Auroraites shared the scoring spotlight with nine
tallies, three local lads also figured in the scoring. Harold Hodgson netted two with singles coming from the sticks of Bud Lehman and Jake Harman. Pickering’s Jim Cruikshank and Pete Lacey each scored once. Straight Time Stouffville held a 5-1 advantage at the end of the first period and increased their lead to 11-1. Following a suggestion from the Orangeville coach, referee Loring Doolittle gladly agreed to resort to straight time for the last period. In spite of the time cut, the Clipper marksman poured four more goals into the Orangeville cage. Little Energy Left It was a woefully weak or Orangeville club that struggled through the final twenty minutes of play. Snowed under by an avalanche of goals, the visitors
merely skated out the time. In spite of their rather listless effort, forward Don Hoare of Orangeville had enough energy left to engage Stouffville defenceman Ron Guy in a brief wrestling skirmish. They
were quickly parted by referee Doolittle and thumbed to their respective dressing rooms with 2 minute roughing penalties. Two Share Fate Orangeville used two netminders in an effort to hold off the
Stouffville attackers. Both share a similar fate. Hanna, the starter, was the victim of five tallies the initial period. Lawson, the sub goalie was beaten ten times. Clipper netminder Wilkins had a
rather easy between the pipes. He pulled off a number of good saves but was not overworked. Walter Rickey of Orangeville spoiled a shut out performance with his teams only goal at 17.29 of the first period. Wilmot Gates of the Clippers was serving an elbowing penalty at the time. There were sixteen penalties in the game, ten to Stouffville and six to Orangeville. HAYLOW BOLSTERS BUFFALO PEEWEES
A luckless Buffalo team received a much-needed shot in the arm on Monday evening when their lineup was bolstered with the addition of hard-shooting forward Francis Haylow. Haylow a regular with Bud
Lehman’s Canadiens turned in a fine performance for both clubs. Although the front-line star fired four goals and picked up one assist, buffalo failed to squeeze out a win. They were edged by Pittsburg 6-5. Wayne Crowder notched one tally. Haylow’s rival for the goal-scoring honours, Ross Brown netted four goals and assisted on one for the Hornets. Jim Hill potted a pair and picked up one assist.
Canadiens 6, Leafs 4 Billy Payne was a three goal marksman for Canadiens as they handed the
Leafs a 6-4 setback. He also assisted on two. Francis Haylow fired two tallies and David Winn netted one. Bill Corner and Kenny Aida counted a pair for the Leafs. GALBRAITH NETS HAT TRICK FOR RED WINGS
Arlan Galbraith is currently one of the top marksmen in the Lions Peewee League. Following a switch from the Hawks to the Red Wings, the speedy forward has been scoring goals regularly in every game. On Thursday afternoon he counted a three goal hat trick and picked up one assist as Detroit battled the first place Hawks to a 5-5 tie. It was the Black Hawks third straight tie game. The contest was a see-saw affair with first one club moving out front then the other taking the lead. Kirk Mortimer potted a pair of goals and assisted on another for a fine two-way performance. Tom Benson and Ted Redshaw continued to pace the Hawks attack. Each scored twice. Benson picked up an extra assist. Bill Lehman notched one tally. Bruins 2, Rangers 2 The other Peewee game also ended in a draw as the bruins and rangers battled to a 2-2 tie. Keith Betz, a former Black Hawk, fired both Boston goals. The Rangers goals were scored by Walter Taylor and Jim Mehaffey. Both were unassisted.

A five goal rally by Milton in the last period on Friday night fell short, as the Clippers squeezed out a tight 7-6 victory. Stouffville had built up a commanding 1 lead going into the final frame and held a 7-2 advantage at the halfway mark in the third period. As if by magic, the lead rapidly decreased within the space of eight minutes and at the bell the visitors were threatening to pull back on even terms. Strike Fast It took Stouffville only 30 seconds to post their first goal as defenceman Ron Guy blinked the light on passes from Phil Nicholas and Harold Hodgson. Seconds later Nicholas hit the target again for the
Clippers second tally. Bud Lehman and Ron Guy picked up assists on this goal. At 14.05 Pickering’s lanky Pete Lacey waltzed through the whole Milton club and parked the puck behind goalie Don Rose from an
almost impossible angle. The Clippers led 3-0 at the end of the period. Hit Head On One of the hardest checks of the night occurred in the second frame when Ron Guy and Phil Nicholas of the Clippers crashed inside the Stouffville blueline. The cause of the collision was Other to the majority of the spectators. Both Guy and Nicholas were attempting to halt a scoring bid when the accident happened. Guy’s forehead struck the ice and he was knocked unconscious. Nicholas also received a
nasty crack on the head. Guy was lifted bodily from the ice and carried to the Stouffville dressing room and a doctor was summoned to the rink. The injury was not considered to be too serious. Milton
netminder Don Rose was also injured in the second period and the game was held up for a few minutes. Although a stretcher was brought out on the ice it was not needed. Milton’s First
Pete Lacey notched his second goal of the game at the fifty-five second mark of the middle frame. He was set up by Phil Nicholas and Bud Lehman. Milton broke the ice at 3:10 as Ken Pollock, a hat trick
marksman, beat goalie Geo. Wilkins with a close-in shot. His tally was quickly nullified when defenceman Jim Cruikshank scored from Harold Hodgson and Bud Lehman at the eleven minute mark.
Captain Hodgson, an usually mild-mannered performer clashed with his rival wingman in the closing minutes of the period when they jostled together in the corner. Referee Jack Shropshire allowed play to
continue. On the next rush however, the two wingers skated neck and neck into the Milton end zone. Hodgson’s timing was slightly off and he crashed into the exit door at top speed. The arena literally vibrated on its moorings. Hodgson was thumbed to the box with a boarding penalty. Immediately at the conclusion of his penalty, the Clipper captain picked up a loose puck and rifled it into the Milton cage to put stouffville out front 6-1. Tough Opponent There was only one outbreak of fisticuffs in the entire match. This occurred in the second period between Brush of Milton and Bud Lehman of the Clippers. The two players bumped together on the boards and the Milton player, unthinkingly let loose a gloved hand in the direction of Lehman’s chin. The Clipper forward immediately clamped a reverse chin lock on his opponent and felled him for the ten count. Both players were banished for five minutes. Big Rally The third period saw Milton stage a five goal rally and cut the
Stouffville lead down to a mere one goal. Ken Pollock and Art Melanson each potted a pair. John Patterson notched one. Harold Hodgson fired what proved to be the winning Stouffville tally.
Milton’s sixth goal was counted with their netminder, Don Rose sitting on the bench. Time ran out on them however,and they could not gain a split in the points. Clippers Best Jake Harman, Clipper forward who bounces up and down ice like a car with worn shock absorbers turned in a good game, although he failed score any goals. Harold Hodgson and Pete Lacey also played well. Ken Pollock was Milton’s best. MOOSE RACK AWARD GOES TO LOCAL HUNTER
Roy Heaton, Park St. Stouffville has been named the winner of the Toronto Daily Star’s moose rack competition. Although three entries in the contest measured more than five feet, Mr. Heaton’s 64 inch
spread topped all competitors. He has been presented with a big game rifle. The local hunter bagged the giant moose in the Gogama district of Northern Ontario on Oct. 15. The size was verified by G.R.
Armltage, conservation officer. All in all, over 17,300 hunters were interviewed and 5000 deer checked.
January 9 1958 (con’t) CLIPPERS HAND BRADFORD THEIR FIRST LOSE OF SEASON
Stouffville’s highflying Clippers stepped into Bradford on Saturday night and handed the undefeated Marshmen their initial setback of the current schedule. In a see-saw encounter Jack Watson’s squad came out on the top end of a 9-6 victory. The Stouffville win was an all-team effort with seven players figuring in the scoring. Mel Vale and Bud Lehman paced the Clipper attack, each potting a pair. Singles came from the sticks of Howard Bullock, Ted Vanderpol, Wilmot Gates, Harold Hodgson and Phil Nicholas. The trio of Bud Lehman, Harold Hodgson and Phil Nicholas turned in a star-studded
performance counting four of the team’s nine tallies. On the power play attack, Coach Watson moved hard-firing Harold Hodgson back on defence and inserted Pete Lacey up on the line. The combination paid off in goals. The game was only seconds old when Bradford jumped into 2-0 lead. In equally prompt action the Clippers bounced back to even the score at 2-2. On two occasions the lead changed hands before Stouffville broke out front to stay in final frame. Bradford’s Don “Spider” Gibson was the game’s only casualty. He suffered an injured back and had to be carried from the ice. Russ Forfar, the Clipper’s steady rearguard became involved in a mid-game brawl. The bout ended as quickly as it started when the local defenceman floored his opponent with comparative ease. MACMILLAN BROS. LEAD MIDGETS TO 6-1 WIN
The McMullen brother, Lynn and Larry, paced the Stouffville Midget club to another winner on Monday night, as the local squad downed Woodbridge 6-1. The East End twins figured in five of the team’s six
tallies. Larry McMullen fired two goals and picked up one assist while brother Lynn netted one arid assisted on another. Ron Stewart potted a pair for the winners. Allan Boyd collected one. Norm Troyer fired the lone Woodbridge goal. Stouffville held a 5-0 lead before Woodbridge broke the ice at 11:40
of the final frame. Larry McMullen and Ron Stewart blinked the light in the opening session. Stewart
notched his second goal at the four minute mark of the second period and Lynn McMullen made it 4-0 on a pass from Geo. Malcolm. At 3:45 of the third period, Allan Boyd clicked for his tally midway
through the frame. Woodbridge spoiled Roger Beazley’s shutout attempt with an unassisted goal. At 12:40, Larry McMullen teamed up with linemate Grant Foreman for Stouffville’s sixth and final tally.
There were only three penalties in the cleanly played contest. Jeff Orr of Woodbridge was thumbed to the box with a pair of tripping penalties. Roger Stover spent two minutes in the box for the homesters. JUVENILES LOSE 4-1 TUSSLE TO THORNHILL
A visiting Thornhill Juvenile team struck for a pair of goals in each of the second and third periods to register a 4-1 win over Stouffville on Thursday night. Both clubs turned in a freewheeling exhibition.
The pace appeared to be too much for the local squad and they faded noticeably in the latter stages of the contest. Coach Bob Bangay kept the players’ box gate swinging constantly in the final frame as his
leg-weary proteges staggered in for relief. Icing only eight men for the early stages of the game, Stouffville managed to hold the opposition at bay in the opening period. Thornhill struck for a pair of goals in the second and out-scored the homesters 2-1 in the third period. Doug Raymer potted a pair for the Yonge street crew while Garry Stamp and “Whitey” Edwards fired singles. Murray Holden netted the lone Stouffville tally. Stouffville had numerous wide-open chances to close the scoring gap but inaccurate marksmanship around the Thornhill net allowed the opposition to maintain their lead. Forwards Howard Malcolm and Dean Evans had excellent opportunities to blink the light in the final
frame but both missed with their shots. Earl Thompson also found himself alone inside the Thornhill blueline when Malcolm set him up with a perfect pass but the disk slipped off his stick and caromed
harmlessly into the corner. Larry Malloy centering a line with Ronnie Jones and Ted Suzuki was one of the locals’ best although he failed to score. He tested the Thornhill goal guardian with a number of
labelled shots. Thornhill held a 3-0 lead before Stouffville counted their one and only goal. Gord Eckardt trapped the puck inside the Thornhill blueline and fed Lorne Disney a pass near the net . He relayed the disk to Murray Holden who whipped it around the post into the corner. Thornhill sewed up the tilt with their fourth and final goal at 11:38. Ted Suzuki, a three-penalty player, clashed with Thornhill player
Richard Charles near the boards in the last period both were banished with majors. Bud Lehman, Stouffville’s referee, waded between the combatants and quickly broke the skirmish. Charles of Thornhill was pegged with a misconduct when he protested the penalty too strenuously. He was sent for an early shower. There were seven penalties in the contest, four to Stouffville and three to Thornhill. REDSHAW TOP PEEWEE SCORER
Ted Redshaw, brother of the Brooklin hockeyist, Wayne Redshaw is currently setting the pace in the Lions Peewee League with a total of 20 goals and 4 assists. The front line centre star leads linemate Tom
Benson by three points. Benson, a rightwinger and utility defenceman, has collected 18 goals and picked up 3 assists. Both players perform with the Black Hawks. Billy Lehman, centreman on the Hawks’ second line holds down a third place scoring position with 9 goals and 3 assists. He is deadlocked with the Red Wings’ Barry Hilts. He has counted 10 goals and 2 assists. Keith Betz is fifth on the list with 8 goals and one assist. Ronnie Castle of the Red Wings and Donald Smith of Boston each have scored 7 goals and assisted on one. Hard-skating Jim Mehaffey of the Rangers has scored 7 goals. The league standing to date is as follows: Hawks — 16 pts; Boston — 12 pts; Red Wings — 8 pts; Rangers — 4 pts.

HOME-RUN CLOUT BY SCHELL DEFEATS AURORA 10-9
Trailing by one run at the final bat, Stouffville Juniors romped to victory over Aurora 10-9, on the mighty clout of Lorne Schell, who drove the ball deep into the right field and chased Raxlin in a head of him, to clinch the contest. Despite numerous errors on both sides, the game was nip and tuck all the way, with Miller being the pick of the hurlers. Mundel and King did the twirling for the Yonge St. boys, King relieving Mundel in the fifth after Stouffville had collected four runs without a reply.
Both teams collected two runs in the fist innings, but Aurora broke out with five in the second, only to have the homesteads right on their heels again four runs in the fourth on two hits and two errors, Lewis and Miller doing the hitting for Stouffville. There was considerable free base running and both teams missed several chances for double plays. This game completes the Junior schedule with the exception of a postponed game with Richmond Hill, Stouffville hanging to fourth place, Milliken finished first. For play-off purposes the league will be split into two divisions, the Yonge St. team on one hand, and Markham, who finished last, along with Stouffville and Milliken in the eastern section.
Aurora 11 Stouffville 5
Despite the fact that at one juncture, Stouffville infield had Aurora goggly eyed by pulling off a triple play, the hometown Juniors could not seem to get their hits across at the right moment, while a couple of costly errors gave Yonge St. boys three of their runs. The game remained in a semi-deadlock 1-0 for over half of the nine innings. STOUFFVILLE MIDGETS HAND AURORA FIRST DEFEAT
Stouffville Midgets handed Aurora their first defeat of the season on Tuesday night, downing them 8-7. Lorne Schell was on the mound for the locals throughout the entire game, pitched faultless ball. There were two errors chalked up against Stouffville. On two occasions Schell struck out two batters in succession with Aurora pressing with bases loaded. The best hit of the game was a triple by Percy Schell.
This completes the Midget schedule, and at the moment it is doubtful if there will be any play-offs forthcoming. Stouffville is slated to enter the O.B.A. playdowns, and already have their team lined up with some help in the pitching department and outfield from Markham and Milliken.
An uncompleted Junior game with Richmond Hill might be played off next Tuesday, if arrangements can be made.

MANY LOCAL WINNERS AT SOUTH ONTARIO PLOWING MATCH
Under nearly perfect weather conditions, 33 competitors entered the field in the various events in the South Ontario Plowing Match on the farm of Elmer Powell, Columbus, on Thursday last.
In the eight classes of plowing, the top honours were evenly decided between farmers from Ontario County and those from outside. There was large contingent from outside points from as far away as Aurora, Cannington and Little Britain battled it out. One of the big prize winners was Gardham Tran of Markham, who won the high cut, open to all, and the best finish and crown in the same class.
Most of the farmers consulted, thought the ground was just right for good plowing though they said a good rain would have made it perfect.
F.M. Campbell, agricultural representative for the county, and honorary president of the association, led off the proceedings with a compliment for a good match held and went on to say that Ontario County has as diversified a record in agricultural matters as any county in the province with its breeding, cattle shows and plowing. He added that he hoped that Ontario County would show as well in the International Plowing matches at Goderich, Oct., 18 as they did in the last match in 1940.
Mr. Quinn of Peterboro was one of the judges in the matches. The other judge, W. Timbers, said he thought it was one of the best matches held in Ontario and that he admired the sportsmanship evidenced at plowing matches. He did however deplore the decline of the high cut matches, which he said had been discouraged by the big companies making jointer plows. He said the winners in this match “were those with well balanced land” — with little difference between the crown and the finish.
The president of the South Ontario Plowmen’s Association, H. Hayes of Columbus was master of ceremonies for the prize giving.
Leading prize winners included:
Class 1. High Cut, open to all

Penalties big factor when Red Wings go down 4-2
After riding the crest of a four game winning streak, Stouffville Junior O.H.A. entry finally bowed to Aurora on Friday night by the tune of 4-2. “Ike” Harper’s boys were just a jump behind Aurora right up to until the last ten minutes, when Simmons game on ice. Doug Moore who played a whale of a game in the Stouffville net, was powerless to stop the shot with Aurora men right on the doorstep, and not a local Red Wing in sight. Jack Rumney opened the scoring in stanza one, flicking the puck into the open side from close quarters, after Jewett had taken a bat at it, and Smith kicked it out. It took Aurora less than five minutes to even the count, Wilkinson getting the goal. The battle see-sawed back and forth for the balance of the period with first one side having the advantage and then the other.
Penalties played a very part in the Aurora victory part in the Aurora victory, as they scored three of their four goals when the Stouffville team were short-handed. In the first period Aurora drew two penalties, Andrews had Brodie getting the nod, while Campbell did a stretch in the cooler for Stouffville. In the second period Aurora scored twice, while Mabbett was serving twice, and Pascoe who fell to fisticuffs with Mundell in the minute major when Simmons scored the final goal. There were eleven trips made to the penalty bench, six by Aurora, Doolittle getting three, and five by Stouffville Clement and Minton geeing one each.
Both teams showed signs of tiring in the second period, but the few minutes breather just before the final twenty minutes had them rolling again. While Stouffville were pressing in the last period, they just couldn’t break the Aurora defence clear enough to beat Smith in the nets. Midway through the last period, Gord Lewis brought the locals within shooting distance of a tie once more, weaving in through a maze of Aurora boys to plant the rubber safely behind Smith and Make it 2-2. Simmons put the game on ice with less than ten minutes remaining. With only two seconds left Stouffville was rewarded with a penalty shot, chalked against Mundell, who fell on the puck in his own goal mouth. Clement took the shot, but failed to beat Smith. The final bell came with the next face-off.

SUNDERLAND GAINS 9-9 DRAW TO PROLONG SEMI-FINAL SERIES
After building up a four run lead in the early innings of the game Sunderland slipped badly and allowed the locals to pull ahead in what appeared to be a certain Red Sox victory. However, in the final innings of the see-saw battle the visitors scored three runs to take the lead for a second time in the game. In the locals last battings Cote singled to bring in Ken Schell with the tying run. The umpire called the game because of darkness.

STOUFFVILLE HORSESHOE CLUB RANKS HIGH IN EXHIBITION TOURNAMENT
The motto of practice makes perfect came true to the local horseshoe enthusiasts as the club ranked high among the top hurlers from Toronto and other larger centres in the annual C.N.E. tournament. For the past two months the clanging of horseshoes could be heard as the throwers worked in earnest to get their tosses down in perfection and on Saturday night a four man team from here came up with a second prize. The team was made up of Harvey Simpson, Harry Noble, Wm. Grove and Dave Stouffer. There were ten four man groups competing for the top honours with Riverdale taking the first prize money of $20.00, Stouffville received $18.00. On Tuesday night the group was broken into couples with Mr. Davis Stouffer playing along with his partner from West Toronto walked off with the top award. It was certainly an honour to have the local club bring home the first and second prize especially i competition with larger centres such as Kitchener, Galt and some of the Toronto squads.

Stouffville girls pay another visit to Agincourt diamond on Wednesday night of this week for a game under the floodlights. The last game played there went to Agincourt 10-9. Joan Haynes did the hurling for Stouffville but was replaced by Blanche Hornsby, a new recruit that Coach Staley is lining up for next season. Nelda Elson took a turn at third base for the locals. Helen Goudie came up with the best hit of
the night smashing a four bagger into the deep outfield. Myrtle Staley connected for three bases. The umpiring is reported to have been a little on the poor side and it is because of this that a return contest is being staged. COOK BLANKS SONYA WITH TWO-HIT HURLING PERFORMANCE
Earl Cook returned to memorial Park on Monday night after recovering from his injury sustaining in the previous contest to hurl the Red Sox to a smashing 7-0 victory over Sonya Braves and move up into the top spot in the Tri-County League along with Sutton. It was a brilliant performance staged by the veteran righthander all the way with one batter after another fading away under his pitching skill. The big ex-pro credited himself with thirteen strike outs and allowed but two hits during the entire game. It was Stouffville’s night all the way as the local batters returned to their hitting ways and pounded the ball to the far corners of the park. Ken Schell came up with the best smash hit of the night with a four bagger in to fifth innings to run the score up to five. Chadwick came up with two hits in four turns at bat as did cadieux and Lorne Schell. Brother Ken had a perfect night with two singles, a home run and a walk in four trips to bat. Both clubs went scoreless until the fourth innings when Cook, K. Schell, Hassard and Jennings all reached base safely. Cadieux singled to drive two runs in but Smith hit into a double play to retire the side. The homesters added three more runs in the fifth off the grand slam homer by catcher Ken Schell. One of the nicest plays on the bases was made by short stop. Lorne Schell who fielded a long roller in deep short and hurled hard to Chadwick for a close out at first. Jennings pulled off some nice base running in the seventh stealing to second and then stopping half way. The catcher threw the ball to second and Hassard who was standing on third raced home to score. The bewildered second baseman then fired the ball home too late and allowing Jennings to tag up with a stolen base to his credit.
Walt Smith came up with a nice catch in the outfield coming in fast to snag a well placed ball in the final innings. After a short batting slump the locals seemed to be once again hitting their stride. They journey to Cambray on Friday night of this week and then have a double session with Woodpile to wind up the regular schedule. A decision on the playoff set up should be forthcoming at an early days. COOK INJURED, RED SOX LOSE TO SUTON 5-3.
Although the Red Sox pulled off one of the nicest double plays we have seen this season, L. Schell to Hassard to Chadwick the locals went down to defeat at the hands of Sutton Green Sox in Memorial Park on Friday night. By the win, Sutton took over undisputed possession of first place in the Tri-County round robin championship race but the Red Sox have a game in hand on their first place rivals. Cook went to the mound for the homesters but had to retire in the third inning when hit on the arm by a fielded ball. Lorne Schell went in to replace the injured Cook and allowed four hits and struck out four. Cook gave up six hits and struck out in the three innings in which he was in action.
Hurler George Holborn e put on a nice pitching display and although he showed some signs of weakening in the final innings he was never in trouble. He gave up seven hits and fanned twelve batters. Sutton had their batting eye well trained and led by Keith Dun’s triple in the second and a three bagger smash by “Skip” Taylor in the fourth, the visitors ran up a 5-0 lead. Only in the seventh and final innings could the homesters bring any batting power to bear as three runs romped home with but one down. However with two runner on base Hassard and cadieux went down before the hurling power of Holborn e and the game was over. Chadwick has shown the best hitting power for the Red Sox and he kept his recent batting average intact with a double and a single in three trips to the plate. Some of the Red Sox power hitters died time and time again without a hit. During the entire game the umpire cane in for a great deal do activism by the local players. The series looks like a tight race as the teams reached the half way mark in the schedule and every game won or lost may mean the difference between winning the championship or dropping out of the finals. SUTTON AND STOUFFVILLE DEADLOCKED FOR FIRST PLACE
Sutton and Stouffville are at the present time deadlocked for the top rung in the Tri-County Championship round robin series and with both teams having three remaining games it would appear that they might finish the schedule in that position unless one of the teams are knocked off by a lower club. By virtue of their win on Monday night the Red Sox squared themselves with their northern rivals. Lindsay has pulled up into third spot followed by Sonya and Cambray tied for fourth. Woodpile is trailing the field.
The standings are as follows:
P W L Pts
Stouffville 7 5 2 10
Sutton 7 5 2 10
Lindsay 7 4 3 8
Cambray 7 3 4 6

DROP FACE-OFF CIRCLE IN FRONT OF NETMINDER
The Maple Leafs were informed today that the NHL had discarded a proposed innovation calling for a large face-off circle directly in front of the net. The league will return to the system of having two face-off circles on each side of the ice at each end of the ice, but they will be larger than before. As an experiment, the one face-off circle at each end had been introduced at various NHL and AHL training camps in exhibition games this fall. It had a diameter of 30 feet and the Leafs, among others, objected to it after trial as being fir to goalkeepers who thus were in a direct line of fire. Replacing that circle will be two circles, each 30 feet in diameter at the sides, 15 eft out from the goal line according to information here. The face-off spots in the end zone last season were 10 feet out from the goal and 20 feet in diameter.’ Under the new system there will be five face-off cIrcles, including one at centre ice, which will also be 30 feet in diameter. The area inside the circle, of course is inviolate before the puck is dropped pt all players except the two face-off men.

COACH BOB BANGAY PACES THE CLIPPERS TO A 7-2 VICTORY OVER COLLINGWOOD
Stouffville Clippers led by playing coach Bob Bangay handed Collingwood Shipbuilders their second defeat of the season by virtue of a 7-2 victory here on Saturday night.

Green counted the lone tally in the period as the visitors appeared to carry the play on more occasions then in the opening period. Eatough in the Clipper cage was called on to make over three times the saves as Westbrook of Collingwood although the Shipbuilders drove many of their shots from outside the blueline. The final twenty minutes was all Stouffville in a scoring way as the locals pumped three more goals into the Shipbuilders’ net. Bud Watson blinked the light for the first tally of the period from N.

KEEN INTEREST IN SATURDAY GAME HERE
The old Markham-Stouffville rivalry will be renewed once more on Saturday night of this week when the Eagles, Senior O.R.H.A. entry, come to town for the return contest with the Maple Leafs who are currently leading the Intermediate Community League. These two well-balanced squads have been the subject of much comment during the season and although the Leafs handed their southern rivals a 7-3 setback right on their home ice a few weeks back the Markham crew seem confident they can regain some of their honour that suffered a rude jolt in the first game. Since the first meeting between the two rival clubs the Markham aggregation have played a number o games and should be in better condition than on their previous encounter.
There will be many familiar faces in the Markham line-up. The squad is coached by Ernie Lawrie, and captained by Austie Baker. Other stars in the lineup are Eddie Crouch, Frank Hill, lyle Petch, Bob Lawrie, George Rumney, Milton Black and Jack Poots.
The Maple Leaf have some well-known stars in their squad also. Bill Mullholland or Murray Wagg will guard the nets with Les Clarke, Don Campbell, Len Wilkes and Don Davis on defence.

LIONS PEEWEE N.H.L.
In the second game Canadiens jumped into a 3-0 lead in the first twelve minute without a reply from Boston. Dave Hammersley getting the first two and Warriner the third. Finally Madill scored at the sixteen-minute mark but the come-back was slow. Fifteen minutes later Arnold got a nice goal on a pass-out Btu Rick Hammersley and sixteen minutes later Redshaw tied the score (assist Wilson). The Boston “squirts”, playing a second line instead of fourth, broke in on Jackson and almost scored on three occasions. Their efforts were finally rewarded when Boston set up the puck for defenceman Evans to score. Boston maintained their slim lead until 4 minutes from the end of the game when Hammersley broke loose again for two quick goals, the tying one unassisted and the winning goal one minute later on a pass from Tran. And that’s the way it ended, Canadiens 5, Boston 4.
Boston were minus their regular goalie, Bud Thomas, (his place was taken by Abraham) and their second line and second string defence but it was the inability of Boston first string to tie up Hammersley which contributed most to their lose. Another factor in the Canadian win was the outstanding work of Jackson in the nets. Time after time he stopped labelled shots from the sticks of Boston players. DETERMINE PLAY OFF SPOTS THIS WEEK
The playoff positions for the top contenders in the Intermediate League should be settled this week with the second position still very much in doubt. At the present time Agincourt and Uxbridge are deadlocked for the number two spot and each has three games to play. Stouffville Maple Leafs are solidly entrenched in first place with Peaches A.C. holding down the fourth and last playoff position. On Wednesday night of this week Peaches and Uxbridge meet in the first game while Agincourt battle it out with Riverdale in the second contest of the evening. On Friday night Agincourt and Lansing hook up in the first round with Stouffville and Uxbridge squaring off in the second game.

The last scheduled game of the season on Friday, March 28th, will see Uxbridge and Lansing meeting for the last time.
On Tuesday night of last week Agincourt took a big game from Uxbridge 6-2 and Stouffville downed Lansing 9-6. Green with three goals led the Agincourt squad to victory with McKenzie, Miller and Bisson notching the others. Don Clarke picked up three assists on the night’s play. Bigot and Ron Lintner were the Uxbridge goal scorers. The win boosted Agincourt into second place deadlocked with Uxbridge.
Stouffville Maple Leafs led by Bun Sellers with four goals handed Lansing a 9-6 setback. Harold Hodgins notched three and Lloyd Jennings two. Ring tallied three for Lansing with Hamilton, Hampton and Johnston scoring singles. The maple Leafs scoring ace Bun Sellers was a busy man both on and off the ice. Besides blinking the light on four occasions the high scoring forward sat out six minutes in the penalty box.
On Saturday night the maple Leafs shut out Riverdale 9-0 and Peaches absorbed a 12-4 defeat from Lansing. Ken Laushway and Russ Forfar led the Stouffville attack with two goals.

RED SOX WORKING OUT FOR MAY 24TH
About twelve players turned out for the initial practice session this week on preparation for the opening of the Tri-County League schedule which get underway on May 26th. A number of players endeavouring to make the squad this season are newcomers to the Red Sox lineup. Lorne Boadway, Murray Wagg and Bud Lehman have turned our for practice along with some of the regulars including Derek Chadwick, Ken Laushway, Walt Smith, Ted Cadieux, Bob Hassard, Ken Schell, Murray McMullen, Les Clarke and Ken Wagg. For mound duty, Lorne Boadway and Ken Wagg are trying to prove their hurling skill with Chadwick back of the plate Ken Schell may take a turn at first base and although positions are still very much in doubt at the present time a picked squad should be ready to take the field for the first contest next week. The third sack should be well looked after with either Coach Hassard or Les Clarke covering that base.

OASA RULES NO PENALTY
Delegates meeting at Hamilton to discuss rules and regulations concerning the Ontario Amateur Softball Association on Thursday voted down the resolution that a batter should receive a free base when hit by a wild pitch. Those not in favour of the move felt it would tend to make the softball rules closer to those pertaining to baseball..In baseball f a better is hit by a pitched ball he automatically receives a free ticket to first base. Ted Wilcox, head of the Hamilton Umpires’ Association was whole heartedly behind the scheme. He claimed that softball was a much faster game than baseball and the windmill pitch was potentially dangerous when it goes wild. He added that a pitcher who cannot control the ball should be penalized in some manner.
In the Markham Township Softball League there is but one regular windmill hurler, Lloyd Pascoe, Claremont’s ace moundsman has perfected a jet-propelled fast ball that is equal to anything we have ever seen. Although no batter in the League has been injured by this whirlwind delivery it could easily happen should the ball go wild.
Lions N.H.L. Provides Hockey for Over Eighty Young Lads
Every Saturday morning for the past twenty-five weeks there has been steady streams of youthful hockey talent making their way to Stouffville Arena. Some of the players arrive in cars, some on bicycles and some on foot, and even in the stormiest weather the young lads manage to attend. This season the four local team group sponsored by the Stouffville lions Club has provided hockey for over eighty young men with many of them coming from as far west as Gormley and east to Claremont, Goodwood and Uxbridge districts. The local service club sponsors these “stars of the future” at a cost of $500. The league started its activities late in October and will close down this months. The coaches and referees who have donated their time during the past couple of seasons in order that this worthwhile cause might be continued have noticed a great many changes in the ability of the young players since the idea was first introduced. two years ago some of the boy were barely able to skate let alone show any exceptional hockey skills, but now these same young lads have improved above all expectations. Those persons who were able to attend some of these games on Saturday mornings will have noticed how much enjoyment these young fellows receive from the sport. It is certainly one of the best services that a club could offer and it is hoped that the contract will en renewed when the arena doors swing open for another season of hockey next fall.

HAWKS MAKE CHAMPIONSHIP BID WITH 4-2 VICTORY
The Chicago Black Hawks and Toronto Maple Leafs are battling right down to the wire in the Lions N.H.L. group playoff with the Hawks holding a one point advantage at the present time by virtue of their all-important victory over their arch rivals on Saturday morning. The winner coached by Cec Hendricks replacing bill Bockmaster who was unable to attend spotted the Leafs a one goal lead and fought back on even terms and went on to win by a score of 4-2. Those two teams meet again one week from Saturday to decide the championship. The Hawks walked off with the honour last year. In the goal scoring department Ross madill notched the opener but it was called back for an off-side by Referee Peake and Davis.

Harmon, although arriving late for the contest, fired the winner with the Bruin goaltender Frank Weinholt out of the net in favour of an extra forward.

MEET THIS WEEK
The failure of the Stouffville Clippers hockey management to file an entry with the O.H.A. at their regular meeting two weeks ago was caused some concern among many local fans. A special meeting is being called this week to discuss the issue. It has been rumoured that Stouffville may seek an entry in a lower class, preferably Intermediate ‘A’ but of course before this could be done the town wold obtain permission from the O.H.A. to withdraw from the Metropolitan Area. Stouffville is situated right on the fringe at the present time. They must consider many details however before such a move is made. It is generally agreed that a step forward is much better than a step back, but the question is “Can Stouffville compete with these larger Sr. ‘B’ centres?” It is only natural that cities such as Kingston, Oshawa, Woodstock and Belleville should be able to build up a powerful squad since practically all the players are employed by industries inside their gates. It is a credit to Stouffville that they are able to overpower such teams as Orillia, Peterboro, and Port Colbourne during their march to the Championship in 1951-52, Even during the past season they kept pace with their rivals throughout the regular schedule. It must be understood that the calibre of hockey played in the Intermediate ‘A’ group cannot compare with the thrilling Sr ‘B’ competition but it would appear to be the only way out. Residents have come to expect a “big team” entry from Stouffville. Let’s not let them down. LONE LADY MATCHES BOWLING SKILL WITH GENTS
Mrs. Grace Chase of Goodwood is the sole female survivor of the current elimination bowling tournament at the Stouffville Bowling Centre. At the present time there are eighteen contestants in the running with the low half dropping out at the conclusion of each night’s activities, There were some eighty entries when the tourney was started over a week ago. Many Stouffville’s ace bowlers throughout the year have dropped by the wayside while others’ have shown surprising alley skills. Its going to a battle right down to the wire and the final battle for the Championship award should be the feature event of the bowling year. Following Monday night’s activities the following persons are very much in contention : Jerry Mahoney, Earl crowder, Joe Murray Sr., Lorne Boadway, Don Lehman, Ray Blackburn, Bill Bockmaster, Grace Chase, Harry Davis, Ted Cadieux, Del Jennings, Al Klinck, Len Buckland, Walt Smith, Len Laushway, Polly Minton , Lou Raxlin and Tom Johnston. BUTTONVILLE SLUGGERS HERE TUESDAY NIGHT
Stouffville “Shamrocks” will battle Buttonville Sluggers in their next home contest on Tuesday evening of next week. For the past five years, Bill Hood’s boys have gained the reputation of being one of the most feared teams in the Markham Twp. League. Last year they were robbed of their 5th straight Championship by Thornhill but they no doubt will be back in there fighting to win back the silverware. Some of the stars in the lineup will be no strangers around this community as the majority of the team is made up of Clipper hockey players. Such well-known athletes as Bob and Nick Bangay, George Stark, Hal Gibson, Norm Stunden and Bud Watson will all perform here in their first meeting with the newly formed Stouffville squad. Coach Bill hood will be endeavouring to match softball wits with Stouffville’s big ex-pro baseball star earl Cook. FIVE TEAMS ENTER TRI-COUNTY BASEBALL LEAGUE
A special Tri-County League meeting was held at Oakwood on Friday night for the purpose of organizing the various groups for the coming season, The Stouffville Red sox will be apposed by Port Perry, Sunderland, Uxbridge, and Sutton. The schedule is likely to get underway later this months. The League opened on May 28 last year. A meeting will be in Uxbridge to draw up the schedule. Four other Tri-County League teams are yet undecided on an entry. Bob Hassard and Ted Cadieux represented the Red Sox at the meeting. “QUACKS” LIONS BOWLING CHAMPS

WHAT WITH?
Apparently the OHA has definitely turned down any bid by the Spitfires management to obtain players from inside the metro loop. This action puts the Newmarket team really on the spot. They must now use the players already signed and scout around to try and pick up some left overs to fill any vacancies in the lineup. These so-called “left overs: must hail from outside the Metropolitan area. It’s been a tough year for Newmarket and if they can struggle through the season successfully let it be hoped that they may get off to a better start in the Metro Sr. League next year. INJURY JINX
The mid-season injury jinx the midseason injury jinx has caught up with the Stouffville Clippers forcing coach Bob Bangay to use but two forward lines. On the shelf are Nick Bangay, Ronnie Bell, Gord Lewis, Don and Ken McNeil. Ronnie Bell who suffered two cracked ribs a couple of weeks ago is expected back in action this week. Gord Lewis was cut for seven stitches on Saturday night but should be back in action soon. Nick Bangay will return to active forward line duty after Christmas. The two most recent additions to the injury list, and McNeil may be out indefinitely, injured his knee and McNeil may have cracked some ribs. Last year the Clippers ran into the same difficulty and at one time had but two regular defenceman. This season more players were available to fill the vacancies.
Polly Minton, a steady performer with the Clippers for a number of seasons has vacated the Stouffville colour and according to reports will line up with the Markham Eagles Sr. ORHA tam. Polly has practiced with Markham but has not actually taken part in any scheduled games. He no doubt will add considerable scoring strength to the Markham lineup. STARK SPARKS CLIPPERS IN WIN OVER LUMBERMEN
Geo Stark returned to his old time free-wheeling form in the third period on Saturday night netting two goals and a assist on a third as the Clippers rallied to down Aurora Lumbermen 5-2. Stouffville couldn’t get organized in the first and second periods and found themselves trailing their slaphappy rivals 2-1 after forty minutes of play. However the homesters settled down in the final frame and salted the game away with four unanswered tallies. In the first period the only obstacle that stood between the Aurora squad and five goals was netminder Blake Eatough. He was forced to pull off some dazzling stops as the homesters appeared lost. Tempers flared early in the game when veteran forward Jack Watson was crashed into the boards in the Stouffville end zone. From that point on referee Loring Doolittle was the object of extreme criticism both from the players and fans. For some twenty minutes of time the Stouffville squad directed their attention toward the official with the result that some of the players spent more time in the penalty box then they did on the ice. The Aurora team took advantage of their opposition lapses and continued to pepper goalie Blake Eatough with rubber. On the night’s play, the Clippers distinguished themselves mainly in the final period of the game. Aside from Stark’s return to form, Ken McNeil turned in a fine effort. On defence, Don was astra setting up one goal mad leading numerous dangerous rushes. CLIPPER-LYNDHURST DEFENCEMEN BATTLE
Defenceman Don McIntosh of the Clippers and Russ Robertson of Lyndhurst Motors squared off in the feature attraction of the Sr. ‘B’ hockey fixture played at Easy York. The two burly rearguards were finally separated on the ice but would have continued after the game. They were restrained by their team mates. Although Stouffville was edges by their East York rivals 4-3 they had many good chances to salt the contest away but could not click around the net. Frank Stephenson with toe goals and Don McIntosh with a lone tally were the Clipper marksmen.

under the terrific pressure both goalies, Harper and Ross turned in standout performances and were for the greater part responsible for the low score.
In the last minute of play as Orillia pressed and with Baker serving an interference penalty goalie Ross was taken out of the net and a n extra forward joined the fray. Thomas grabbed the puck and lifted it down the ice only to have it slide aimlessly by the open cage. Playing with a man short the Clippers held on doggedly until baker returned to the ice to help hold the fort. When the final whistle ended the thrilling contest all the local pucksters rushed over to give their steady netminder the thanks he so richly deserved for his outstanding play.
For the losers Ken Broughton, big blonde forward last year with Newmarket turned in the best display with his hard checking and fast skating. On his last appearance here he held down a blue line position on defence but since has been moved up forward.
the game was cleanly played with only six penalties being handed out and they were only for minor infractions. With their two straight wins over the Orillia boys the Clippers have shown that they will be no pushovers when they probably meet these same Bombers in the semi-final round of the playoffs. Because of the various four point games being played at the present time, however the official standing cannot be determined as yet. CLIPPER GO SOUR IN EXHIBITION GAME
Stouffville Clippers merely went through the motions in their exhibition game with Newmarket Redmen on Monday night, and the Yonge Streeters carried away a 9-3 win. Jack Harper, local senior goalie was given a rest for two periods and Jack Warriner, sub, who hans’t been in a game for weeks wasn’t able to cope with the situation, and the visitors mounted their score easily.
However, the balance of the local squad weren’t throwing themselves into the game with gusto either and gave their spare netminder little protection at times. Newmarket on the other hand played as if a championship was at stake.
The Newmarket line of Johnson, Legge, and Smith, who were part of the Clipper outfit last year, were by far the visitors best, Johnson getting four of his team’s counters. Bill Mabbett, an ex-Stouffville Junior, now in the canal town picked up three. Baker, Sails and Clark netted the three local tallies, and kept the Seniors from being routed entirely.

Topple Leaders 5-1 Alliston Hornets may have the first place position safely tucked away in their duffle bags but their unsportsmanlike conduct on Stouffville ice dropped them to near rockbottom in this department. Eighty-six people braved the sub-zero temperature to watch a stick and fist-swinging melee interrupted only by less minor infractions including tripping, boarding, holding or you name it. Two periods of weak officiating prodded the visitors into trying all degrees of physical violence, the outcome of which saw three Stouffville boys requiring medical treatment.

win, lose or draw. This fact was brought home when the Leafs, although four runs down, out-battled the famous Chicago cubs in a recent exhibition game. Mr. Oakley is keenly interested in developing home talent and the brilliant work of Stanley “Steamer” Lucas, who has staged a remarkable come-back after a three year absence, is the first step in that movement. Earl Cook, another Ontario boy, born in Lemonville, is now in Beckley, West Virginia, with the Leafs vitally interested in his progress. Cook wasn’t given an opportunity to develop himself under former Toronto managers, but Manager Boone saw to it that the “Stouffville Farmer” as he is called, got his chance to gain the experience of the lower league so necessary towards obtaining success in such a circuit as the International League.
The new floodlight system at the Maple Leaf Stadium has been judged as the best in organized baseball by night ball experts.

THIS ONE DID
One of the most thrilling football playoff games in the athletic annals of Stouffville District High School came to a successful conclusion on Thursday afternoon when the local team tied Woodbridge 1-1 in the final seconds to take the district Junior title. There was no touchdown on this play, however, as Pat Smith of Stouffville is stopped on the goal line. With three seconds to go in the game, Stouffville’s Pat Smith booted a tremendous 60 yard field goal and the ball (arrow) can be seen headed on target while the Woodbridge players look helplessly skyward. A tie was all Stouffville needed as they took the series opener 8-6. The juniors will now advance into the Assoc.Semi-finals against either Brock, Sutton or Port Perry.

In a tense 4th quarter, the Trojans accomplished in the final minute of play what was very apparent in the first two quarters — VICTORY. The team showed great strength from the beginning. In the fourth play of the game, Pat Smith surged through Woodbridge defence to score but the T.D. was called back on a holding penalty. Again, in the second quarter, Bill McNelly completed a 25 yard run but we were stopped on the 2 yard line of Woodbridge. In the third quarter, Woodbridge scored a safety touch to put them out front 1-0. In the last quarter, Pat Smith recovered a Woodbridge fumble but the field goal attempt was blocked. Mr. Rehill, Blair Wagg, Peter Turner, Marg Aida. VOLLEYBALL GAMES
