STUART PA X'I‘ON WIRING The Richmond Hill and District Intermediate Soft- ball League finals between Lake Wilcox and Wimbridge Cleaners got the second game of the series off at King City on Thursday night. The Lake Wilcox team carried on right where they left off in Richmond Hill on Tues- day night and handed the Cleaner team their second loss by a 13â€"7 count. -â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" ' For the first time in a good many years no T.H.L. hockey will be played in the local arena This year the whole set up is going to be run on a purely Richmond Hill basis and with 31 teams going at it, the schedule will be crowded indeed. With Lake Wilcox having a two game lead, it gives them a good stranglehold on the championship. As far as the league executive is concerned, this is not an official series, so just what the outcome of the whole thing will he remains to be seen. To help defray expenses, parents who attend the Saturday afternoon games are going to be charged a nominal admission fee. Hockey is a big thing in the lives of the kids so when the time comes, don’t forget to c‘ome out and root for your boy and for his team. No- thing will please a boy more than to have parental in- terest demonstrated and to perform well in front of Mom and Dad. I... a, w» .â€"â€"~- v The senior set seem to thrive on the game. The mother of a good friend of ours was curling well past the age of three score and ten, and seemed capable of holding her own with much younger competition. The thing that appealed to her most was thexsocial life, as according to this dear soul, curlers really seem to enjoy a better than average type of companionship. Whole families can compete together, either as a family rink or against each other and although competition may be fierce and sometimes feelings run high, nobody ever gets carried away to the fist swinging stage. The rink is just nicely started at present but it is expected that all will be in- readiness for a roaring sea- son of curling_ If anyone would like further.information on the rink or just how one goes about joining the Curl- ing Club, Dalton Hicks at TUrner 4-1764 has most of the answers. Memberships are available and it just might be what you and your family have been looking for, so call Belt. and get the information youwant first hand. You wen’t be sorry you did; A 7 o The Minor Softball League finals are now under way and once again ’we would urge that as many par- ents as possible plan to attend the games. Maybe it won’t be world's series calibre ball, but it is just as important to the youngsters involved. nun-av“... v.-..-ov v_- - Another attractive thing about this curling bit is the appeal it seems to have for players of all ages. High school lads seem to get just as much fun out of the stone and broom bit as do their grandfathers and grand- mothers. Out in Western Canada particularly, bonspiels for high schools are a. large part of the school sports programme. _ .. . .u' ml,_ v .... u I"... vwv Curling is a sport that has always held quite an at- traction for yours truly, although the truth of the mat- ter is that I don’t know tOO much about it. One of the attractions is the fact that say what you will it is a very colorful spectacle and all participants seem to get a tre- mendous charge out of it. 7 I There is a big new sign at the corner of Yonge St. and Elgin Mills Sideroad informing one and all that the new Richmond Hill Curling Rink is located just 200 yds. east of Yonge Street. From advance publicity and from conversation with interested curlers we gather that this is going to be as fine a curling set-up as can be found in these parts. 7 ._ .. . I 11 ..

SEPT. 7th STOCK CAR 8 BIG EVENTS SPORT SPOTS â€" by Ron Craine After spending a particularly harassing day with Junior â€" and being thwarted and disobey- ed by the tiresome child until she was at her wit’s end, Junior's moâ€" ther finally exclaimed, “OK. then, just do whatever you please â€" and let's see you try to dis- obey that!" - THE LAST WORD Mr. Elgin Barrow reported on the personnel employed by the ar- ent board. Mr. Jim Ley, Mr. Don- McFee and Mr. Dugald McLean were highly complimented and commended for the splendid job done during the past season. Mrs. Eileen Lee was highly commend- ed for her efforts and it was re- ported th‘at due to her efforts snack bar profits had shown a very considerable increase. The interior of the building has been generally refurbished and the snack bar enlarged. The as- soclatlon received a grant from the town and it is hoped that an oil heating system can be instal- led, it is also planned to re- paint the roof and to fix up the west wall of the arena to give the side of the building the same smart appearance as’the front. A maintenance report was giv- en by Mr. Bill Hall. Mr. Hall re- ported that the a ena seats and the interior of the ena had been painted with a fire retardant paint and that additional fire extingu- lshers have been added. The front of the arena has been reshlngled and a new fire escape built. All those present expressed their sat- isfaction with the Improved ap- pearance of the front of the building. The first order of business was the reading of the previous meet- ing minutes by the secretary, Mr. Dalton Hicks. The minutes were adopted as read on a motion by gril Stevenson seconded by Mrs. a . Mr. Jimmy Ley will not be with the association during the com- ing season as he has accepted oth- er employment. On a suggestion by Mr. Stevenson the secretary was directed to send a letter of thanks for services rendered to Mr. Ley. '. 487 entries were received this year for the event, which is con- sidered the major miniature golf tournament of the season. 4th Annual Open Tues.

The heavy rain storm that preceded the meeting was possibly responsible for the small attendance as only seven people turned out for the meeting. Chicago Cubs 9 Los Angeles Dodgers 2 The Chicago kids were just too hot too handle in this game as they exploded with six big runs in the fourth inning. Peter Gates, pitched a steady game for the‘ cubs but all the team played well behind him. Bob Ritchie gave Pet. er a big target to shoot at and picked off two numbers on timely thmws to second base. American League Semi-Final Washington 14 â€" Kansas City 9 The Athletics handed the Wash- ington boys an early lead in the first two innings via the walk route. The Athletics then rallied and were steadily whittling away at the lead when the last inning sounded the curfew bell. ‘ R. Allen was a one man gang for Washington as he pitched, hit. and fielded his team to victory. Mr. Allen had some very fine sup- port from Messrs. Minchella, Pol- lard and Brown as this Washing- ton club really plays like a team. Wimbridge Cleaners 14 Lake Wilcox 6 Down two games to nothing in the Intermediate League final ser- ies, Wimbridge Cleaners clawed out a deserved win over the pow- erful hitting Lake Wilcox Team. Big Bill Whitehead pitched all the we},' for Wimbridge and in the seventh inning rapped out a homâ€" er with one abroad to add two big runs to the tally.

Treasure" Report A treasurers report was given by Mr. Allan Bales which shows that the association has a bank balance of eleven thousand se- ven hundred dollars. It was moved by Mr. Stevenson and seconded by Mrs. Hall that eighty-four small debenture holders, having debentures of $20.00. $30.00 and $40.00 have their debentures re- deemed and interest paid to date. This wlll leave one hundred and forty-seven larger debenture hol~ ders. It was pointed out that re- gardless of the fact that deben- tures are redeemed all holders of debentures. either past or pres. ent are still members of the as- sociation with full voting privil- eges. - ‘ Mr. Barrow thanked Mr. Bales for the fine way in which his du- ties have been performed and then went on to thank the whole executive for the support accord- ed him throughout the year, Mr. Barrow declined nomination for any office as he feels that hockey will take up too much of his time this winter to allow him to act in an executive capacity. Mr. Barrow moved that Mr. L. H. Sims be retained as auditor for the 1959- 60 season and this was seconded by Mr. Bill Hall and carried on a vote by the members present.

At the next meeting of the board of directors the new executive will be chosen. The meeting adjourned at nine thirty with all present agreeing that it had ben a most successful meeting and looking forward to this seasons operations.

The ball was going going and almost gone when Mason made a terrific one hand stab to mare the catch for the out. Tommy Biso started on the mound for the Lake and was playing a nice game until three hits‘in a row in the seventh in- ning saw Jon Bunn come on in relief. The series now stands with Lake Wilcox having won two and Wlmbridge Cleaners one game. This was something of an upset win as the cleaners have been cousins for the Lakers in the two previous meetings. Summary: Winning Pitcher: Bin Whitehead.
