The Kansas City Athletics, this years minor league champions were treated to a turkey dinner on Wednes- day, October 7th at the Town Inn. Mr .and Mrs. Jim Ley, Mr. and Mrs. Doug Lovell and Mr. and Mrs. Ted Dobbs paid and it seems like a very generous gesture. According to reports mine host Bing Lew really saw to it that everyone was as full as he could hope to be. Today is the day that Richmond Hill High School Junior Soccer team goes against Aurora at the local High School grounds. Game time is 4.00 pm. and if you possibly can, why not go and have a look at the local whiz kids coached by Bill Babcock. A At the present time there are three football teams on the go and every one of them is well worth watch- lg. The Richmond Hill High School Juniors are a good little football team while the midget Braves and the intermediate Indians are paying a very exciting brand of football. Canadian Tire and A1 White are busy stocking up with sticks and skates and remind us that hockey open- ing is not very far away. If you are not yet registered to play hurry up and get those forms in, and speaking of hockey, last Saturdays Leaf-Chicago game was a real lulu. Didn’t look at all like the Leaf teams of the past few seasons. Even Argos look better these days - things seem to be looking up generally and that is a nice change. A The old Liberal Trophy that has drifted more or less into oblivion is to be re-dedicated in a new cause. The Trophy will be up for competition in one of the minor softball league divisions and it is h0ped that another trophy will be forthcoming for competition in the other division. Next year the kids will be able to see what they are playing for. The Highlight of the evening came when Coach. Doug Lovell presented the kids with their champion- ship crests. With dedicated people like this taking an interest, no wonder the Junior Softball programme was such a success. A note to Duane “Tex" Patfield. Don’t worry 'so much about how you think you might have goofed in your choice of plays, being a quarterback is a respons- ible job and if you call for a play you think is justified by circumstances but it goes sour it wasn’t necessarily a bad call. It could be, but not all the time, every 'play is designed as a scoring play, and if every member of the offensive team came up with a 100% effort a touchdown would result, you know that this can’t hap- pen because the defense is trying to be 100% efficient as well so don’t feel too bad. Being a quarterback is like playing goal in hoc- key. A forward or defense man misses a check and only about 10% of the spectators notice it. A goal keep- er guesses wrong and whistles blow, lights go on, play stops and everybody notices. Same with a quarterback but it just isn't all his fault any more than it is the goalkeepers’ fault. Stay with it, chum, you’ll do all right. + SPORT SPOTS + . . .

GORI V S ROCKY MANGOTICH BOWLEY Jack Dennis vs Kid Legacy ORLANDO VS. FOSTER Tues., Oct. 20, 8.45 pm. Thornhill Market FREE EXHIBITION PARKING by Ron Craine Eddie Garner vs Ken Moncton J Me MONCTON, N.B. corner The meeting was called not on- ly to take a broad look at the recreation scope that the town has at the present time, but also to discuss the areas where “gaps" exist. For this reason a large number of leaders in recreational and other fields locally were in- vited to discuss what steps might be taken to fill the gaps without at the present time involving the town to fill any capital projects: The Executive Secretary of the National Y. W. C. A., Miss Mar- ion Foster, the Programme Secre- tary, Mrs. Benes, and Mr. H. La- batt of the National Y. M. C. A. were guests at a special meeting of Richmond Hills' Recreation Committee last Thursday evening. The older teen age group and the young adult group became the two phases under discussion at Thursday evening's meeting. Sin- ce the time when invitation to the "Y” organizations was sen-t out a temporary advisory committee had been formed for a Richmond Hill T. A. B. club, and a youth club which sent four representa- tives to the meeting had already held formal elections for their officers. Both Mr. Labatt and Miss Fos- ter stressed that neither Y or- ganization came into an area un- less it was invited to that area, and that they would then come in either in an advisory capacity, or to set up a program, which- ever was asked for. The T. A. B. programme is an elastic one catering to the wants of the groups that make up the clubs. The Willowdale Y. W. C. A. to date this year has received about forty telephone calls from Richmond Hill asking for recrea- tion programfnes for young mar- ,L_..L 2....

Be- sides the social aspect of the club which would operate every week night, a programme such as judo, wrestling, boxing, tar- gr I shooting was being considered.

Mr. Labatt felt that such a club would make easier the transition from youth to young adult to citizen. Mr. Fred Jackson stated that be trusted the town should give their fullest support to such a club and provide instruction and ‘ leadership when it was asked for: Also contributing to the discus- sion and congratulating the young people on the public mind- edness in representing their club at this meeting were Mrs. G.

Eil- beck of the Programmes Branch of the Provincial Department of Education regretted that he had to be out of town on this date and could not be present.

B raves Lose Midget Game Michael Power 2 Richmond Hill Braves 0 The Richmond Hill Braves, lo- cal midget football entry fought hard but were unable to mount an attack that dented the Michael Power defensive wall. The Braves defensive unit were not exactly pushed around as they yielded on- ly two single point on kicks in the whole game. The defensive unit of the brav- es excelled throughofit the game with center linebacker Kel Ton- ner and guards Tony Loftus and Jack Whaller being particularly effective. Tony Loftus seems to thrive on a good rugged ball game while Jack Whaller is all the more amazing when you realize that this is his first year of! organized hall. -- '- ,-,11_J _ III-I‘ Unsunnnuvu y..-“ wDuane “Tex" Patfield called a competent game from his quart- erback spot and showed a real flair for the job. Coach Bob Thompson figures Patfield as one of the real stalwarts of the club and although Tex was inclined to take the blame for the loss unto himself it just ain’t so. There were to many missed blocks for anyone person to take all the blame. A quarterback calls the‘ shots as he sees them at the time and no one can do any better. If the Braves ever get their passing attack organized they cou- ld make things hot for the other clubs in the league. In this game the receivers seemed to be prac- ticing togetherness as they were all bunched into one zone in- stead of one or two men at- tempting to shake loose. Coaches Thompson and Doctor had‘some- ‘ thing to say to the kids about this bunching tendency and it prob- ably won’t occur again. The team had twelve new hel- mets and twelve new pairs of shoulder pads for this game and not before they were needed. Bob Thompson and Dan Doctor went way way out on a limb for the equipment so how about turning out and giving the kids a bit of moral support and a little fin- Lancial aid when the hat is passed.

The field was very muddy but the big bugbear was fog whi- ch made it well nigh impossible for a passer to spot receivers for a deep passing attack. The eastenders drew first blood as they hoofed for a single point. Terry “Choo Choo” Smith plung- ed over from the three yard line for a T. D. that went uconverted. At the end of the first half In- dians were leading by a six to one score. In the third quarter an alert Jimmy Neal scooped up an east- ender fumble and went thirty five yards for the major score. The attempted convert was no good and the Indians led twelve to one. The Eastenders put on a sus- tained drive from deep in their own end to finally score on a smash from the two yard line. The convert attempt was no good. In the fourth quarter with about three minutes to go an eastend pass went forty yards to the Indian 15 yard line. On the next play a beautiful reverse gave east- enders a T. D. as the ball carrier was virtually unmolested. The covert was good and gave east- enders the ball game, 14-12. Just goes to prove how damaging a missed covert of two can be, doesn't it? Richmond Hill Indians Lose After Close Game Little John Favery started for the Indians making impossible catches and getting away for some The very rough Rosedale Rough Riders were outplayed and out- manned by ‘a club that stuck to football and refused to be upset by some very unballed for rough play on the part of the roughies. In the first half of the game some of the Rosedale crew seemed to be spoiling for a fight but were cooled off by a team who came to play football and__q1d_ jl_1_st thfr. The Richmond Hill Indian de- t’Ensive unit rose up as one man and proceeded to stall what was intended to be a fast breaking attack. In the third quarter two consecutive plays by roughriders were broken up for a twenty yard- loss as a hard-charging Richmond Hill line broke in and smeared the passer for terrific losses. Richmond Hill Indians Win By A Score Of 14-0 Trying to pick out a defensive star would be a difficult job as Charlie Dunn, Bill Searle, Bob McDonald, Glen Hewitt, Jim Cur. ley. Mike Butt, Tom Healey. Nor- mle Sutcliffe, Dave Simpson and Tommy Bartlett fought the rider attack to a standstill. . u, uI-I-nwn .v .. _-_..-__Vfi , The scoring was opened up by the Indians early in the second quarter. Johnny Favery picked up five yards through the middle and McIntosh hit Lynch with a beaut- iful pass to the Rough Rider 45 yard line. Dunn went outside for ten more yards and then caught a McIntosh pass on the thirty. A reverse went to the twenty-two yard line and McDonald drove to the ten. Ian McIntosh went to the 77-: ..... but: Lcu. Jan. "lemuuv-.- .. _ five on a keeper and then drove across from the five for the TD. The convert attempt was not good and Richmond Hill lead six to nothing as the half ended. The third quarter was scoreless but was featured by a sensational pass catching display by Denny it’s OPEN HOUSE at the Gori Ed Mangotich who proved last week that he is a very cap- able mat star indeed has drawn another smoothie in the person of Rocky Bowley. Bowley is as fast as they come and M-angotich will be in for many anxious mo- ments when these two stellar mat men meet on next Tuesdays show at the Thornhill Farmers Market. Although the fans seem to be a good long gains. The defensive unit outshone the offensive team by a wide margin with Mike Butt Normie Sutcliffe. Chuck Dunn. Dave Simpson, Jimmy Neal. Bill Searle and Glen Hewitt being very prominent. The offensive line didn't seem to have any drive and at times seemed to lack very necessary desire. Ian McIntosh was punting well and despite a lack of protection was getting away some very good passes. The favourite target was Denny Lynch, a boy who seems to have ’grab hooké for fingers a some of his catches border on the miraculous. The “Mr. Outside" of the Ind- ians, Billy “Red" Dunn. was a- way for some long romps in this game. If any of you football fans have not yet seen Red in action better come out to the Town Park at 2.00 pm. this comifig Saturday. Dunn has the knack of being an outstanding football player who always drives for the last a- vailable inch. He has colour -as well as ability and every time the P d Head carries there is action and excitement aplenty. The only comparison that comes to hand is Dick Shatto. Both of these boys are payoff backs and give a spec- tator quite a thrill. The Indians are now in a tie for second place and could im- prove their lot by a win over East York this Saturday. In the last game between these clubs Indians won a :lose game 17-14. Once again - The place is the Once again - The filace is the Town Park - The time 2.00 pm Hope to see you there. Lynch and John Favery. Lynch made two grabs that were no- thing if not sensational and seems to have glue on his fingers, as he picks the ball out of nowhere. A Late in the fourth quarter the Indians got on the score sheet again as Dunn fired a long pass off a pitch-out to Jimmy Preston deep in rider territory. Terry “Choo Choo” Smith then bulled his way into 'the end zone drag- ging two defenders: along for the ride. Just prior to the T. D. Mc- Intosh had booted a single to the deadline and as the convert at- tempt was not good the score was Richmond Hill 13 - Rosedale Roughriders. 0. With about two minutes remain- ing in the game McIntosh hoist- ed another kick deep to the R1- der end zone and the receiver was downed for a single point to make the score 14 to 0. The offensive team were very effective at times and John Fav- ery, Bill “Red" Dunn, Terry “Choo Choo” Smith, Ian McIn- tosh and Jimmy Preston were par- ticularly effective. Dunn is the psy-off type runner who poses a real threat every time he is called on to carry. In Denny Lynch the Indians seem to have another Etcheverry to O’Quinn Combo. With McIntosh the trigger man. The boys are well worth watching and as they are tied for the League Leadership they deserve support.
