Not Over Yet! NEWS ITEM: More than $80,000 has been raised by Highland Creek Lions Club in the last four years for the construction of a large re- creation centre in Heron Park. This year the proceeds of their carnival held Saturday go towards the construction of an artificial ice arena. You see that it takes time to raise large sum of money for a public purpose. The local Lions took about 10 weeks to raise only part of the money for the Community Hall. The Rich- mond Hill Arena Association has had members of all the Service Clubs canvassing for just four weeks so there is still hope and the campaign will be extended past its deadline. Therefore there will be NO MEETING this Monday to decide the Arena’s fate as mentioned prev- iously. The Kinsmen Club, which is a newly organized group in town is joining in the canvass as they feel they are now in arposition to offer service to the Village.

JOB PRINTING THE LIBERAL ~ TU. 4-1261 Bill Ellis Children free with parents DISTRICT SPORT NEWS Wrestling Proceeds For Ice Below Expectations The show at Richmond Hill Ar- ena held last Thursday by the 10- cal Arena Association did not fare as well as expected financially but provided plenty of action for the fans who were there. Hassan Bey, the Turkish Steam Roller looked like a sure winner when he clashed with Red Gar- ner in the main event. After win- ning the initial fall,-he hlt Gar- ner with everything but the ring post but made the mistake of let- ting the champ get behind him. He had to give up when Red got his Screw and Twist hold on him. In the last heat Garner got his dander up and battered the Turk around, leaving him dazed and bleeding from the nose and mouth. The fans had to assist him to the dressing room, where Bill Houting, first aid man took 15 minutes to bring him around. Red Garner, newly crowned Canadian Middleweight Champion will make his first title defence against Killer Mangotich, former Champion, Thursday, July 1, at Meanwhile, things are going along copacetic at Pinecrest in a stock car way. Guelph’s Bill Hamilton became the first two- time feature winner last Satur- day when he stopped Ivan Moore’s victory skein at two, But Ivan’s second-place finish allowed him to stay in front of the Carling trophy point scramble. However, there’s one invader who hopes to keep Canada’s ban- ner flying high. He’s Dick Mc- Crossan, the ex-Oshawan now campaigning in the US. Kitchâ€" enel’s Bob Rood and Hamilton's Bill Greathead, the one-time wrestler and present stock car ace, are two others expected to make things difficult for the Yanks. Joe Greenfield won over Ron Heffner in the semi-final via the disqualification route and Don George and Harold Van Dyke wrestled to a draw. Stoney Brooks defeated a much improved John- ny Parisi in another. Next Week Main attractions. of course, will be the American pilots. They’ll be headed by New York State's Vern Harriman, last year’s Inter- national champ, and such as Buf- falo's Doc Hoctor. Bradford’s Bud Johnston, Fort Worth's Eenie Wright and Albany’s Bill Bichte- man. . Canadian Contenders Those mighty midgets will be back again for another attempt at showing their wares at Pine- crest Speedway come next Thurs- day â€" and July 1. That's the latest gen from Promoters Joe Cappy and Norm Smith of the No. 7 Highway speed factory. Rained Out In case you've forgotten. the pocket-sized Indianapolis racers were all set to zoom around the quarter-mile concrete oval the evening of June 12 when the rains came and washed out the show. Midget Racers: At Pinecrest Speedway For Holiday Show The‘July 1 return engagement will be an afternoon affair with the time trials slated for one o'clock and the qualifying heats carded for 2 pm. sharp. The latter will include three 10-lap- pens, two lZ-lap semi-finals and then the 25-lap feature. The Sports Day and Carnival sponsored by the Lake Marie Athletic Association on July 1 in King City Memorial Park prom- ises to be a day of fun for every- one. It will start off with a pipe band parade at 1.30. The program includes baseball tournaments, two hour concert by Vince Mount- ford wrestling bouts and a free dance. There 'will be a lucky draw on the admission tickets at 11.30 pm. A polished floor sur- face has been laid in the Lake Marie pavilion making an excell- ent dance floor. The cost of the floor was $500. L. Marie Assn. Plan Sports Day Rainbow Trout in the Pine River grow to be big fish and to do this they sometimes have to eat unusual food. Conservation Officer E. W. Smith of Orangeville reports that the plunge of a fully clothed youngster into the cold water recently, was re- warded with a 24” rainbow which he observed in a dis- abled condition. The cause of the trout’s trouble was a long snake which it had at- tempted to swallow but could only get half-way down. Winners of the mixed dou- bles tournament sponsored by the Richmond Bowl were two teams who tied for first place. Out of an entry of 40 couples, Mr. and Mrs. G. Clyde of the Lake Wilcox League and Mr. C. Tomlin and Mrs. June Clarke of the Langstafi League tied for top honours. The two winning teams each bowled six games, each scoring a total of 1445 pins. Each team was awarded a prize of $25.00; Bowlers Tie For First Place Sufrin Snakes Richmond Hill. Mangotich lost the title to Garner at Lakeshore Arena before 1500 fans and claims he was just recovering from an attack of flu at the time. He has this to say, “Red Garner is a fair wrestler, but I feel I'm in the best shape of my career and don’t figure I will have too much trouble winning back my championship." However. many fans feel dif- ferently after watching the mat veteran in action this season. Afâ€" ter his terrific win‘ over Hassan Bey on the last card, the fans do not think Garner is only a fair wrestler, they think he is pretty good. But next Thursday will tell the tale and certainly no mat- ter who wins there will be plenty of excitement for all the fans who come out. The Semi-Final is also one the fans have been waiting for, as it brings back Jacques Du Bois, high flying French mat star, ag- ainst Tony Rocci, a great favour- ite here last season, in a 2 out of 3 falls bout. In the other two bouts, Harold Van Dyke will meet another old favourite of a few years ago in Bobby Olson. Swed- ish star. In anothei: bout, the Black Panther clashes with Has- san Bey. Besides this coming Saturday Stox program, there also will be the regular Wednesday night show, June 30. before the midg- ets move in on the holiday after- noon. So, you can see there’s no rea- son for you and the family to stay in the city and battle the heat. A visit to Pinecrest ac- complishes two things. It gets your brood â€"and youâ€" out for a drive and the antics of either the stock jocks or the midgets are guaranteed to keep them (the youngsters) out of your hair. On Saturday. June 19, Vandorf Community Centre held its an- nual field day. Mrs. J. Parker’s Peter Pan Schol of Dancing per- formed in the evening. Newmark- et girls’ ball team won a game from the Barrie girls.

Playing time is here again and the approach of the far- mers mower poses a threat for parent pheasants and their young hidden in the longrgrass of the hayfields. While many adult pheas- ants are able to escape, large numbers of birds un- doubtedly fall victim to the cutting bar. Those not kill- ed are often badly cut. and if not observed, left to die. While the mower usually passes‘ over eggs in the nest. broods of young chicks and poults are also frequently destroyed.
