Sanitary Contractor Drains Cleaned & Repaired C. S'I'UNDEN ucmom: m1. TU. 4-‘ RICHMOND HILL UNITED CHURCH HALL SAT” MARCH 19 at 12 Track and field sports prove the true measure of a boy or girl. Team sports develop the ability to live and work with the other people but it is especially im- portant to learn to live with oneself. In track and field sports, competitors rise or fall solely on their own. God- given skills, some are more competent than others, not because of greater gifts. but due to greater application of skill. It is true that at any one time we may have only three or four really outstanding track and field com- petitors, but then how many NHL. hockey prospects are in our midst or how many major league baseball stars of the future? The answer is we just don’t know how much good a track will do us. Basic skills will be improved and a really well rounded physical fitness pro- gramme will result from the use of track facilities. Equipment for track and field work is pretty basic too â€" a willing heart. a pair of running shoes, reasonably good health. and some little direction and you are in business for years to come. Running, jumping and throwing, which is exactly what track and field events are about, are not specializ- ed at all â€" they are the basic fundamentals from which all sports stem. A fast runner’s ability is put into a specialized form when he is used as a fast breaking back on a football team. A jumper with good springs in his legs is specializing when using his ability to pick re- bounds off a basketball backboard. On this premise, most people will agree that track and field teaches basic fundamentals. The argument that a running track would be of use to only a limited few is just not true. There are, or will be very shortly, 10. schools in Richmond Hill. Every school has its own internal track meets and then enters inter-school meets. If a track were available for their use it would seem that something over 1,000 children would make use of the facilities. This hardly makes track and field a limited sport by any stretch of imag- ination. There can be no blaming anyone but oneself for a poor performance. You stand or fall on your own efâ€" forts and you learn that to be outstanding you have to really apply yourself. If that fact alone is learned, the basic requirement for success in any other field of en- deavour has been brought home to a young boy or girl in such a way that they will never forget it. We need a track in our town and some day, God willing, we’ll get it. Two good young hockey players will be leaving Richmond Hill shortly as the head of their household changes his headquarters to the fair city of Winnipeg. Midge and Steve Hiley are the two boys involved, and our loss will be Winnipeg’s gain. Good luck and bon voyage to the Hiley family and we hope that the boys will be ablegto enjoy hockey in their new abode as much as they have enjoyed it here. ‘ â€"â€" SPORT SPOTS â€"â€" Every so often it occurs to this child that we have some great track and field competitors in Richmond Hill but no track for them to operate on. In past conversa- tions it has been brought to light that most people think of track and field as a sport that is highly specialized and will only benefit a chosen few. With this View I can’t agree at all. If we can continue the operation of the hockey for kids in future years we should be assured of a supply, not of good hockey players, but good solid citizens who know what life is all about and who know the basic rules even if they are not always adhered to. The Rich- mond Hill Hockey Association has done a great job this year in giving valuable lessons to hundreds of young. stars and more power to their aims, say we. -â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" Jimmy Pollard, coach of the Bantam hockey team is just aching to see the green, green grass. Jim has given in to the lure of the fairways and has joined Uplands Golf Club and his new membership card is burning large holes in his pocket. If anyone around these parts is praying for an early spring, this is the boy. These are the important things that have happen- ed to boys in the Richmond Hill area this winter Some adults maybe don‘t see the issues involved as clearly as they should. It’s nice to have a winner, but only when the win is achieved by applying all the rules all the time, and this comes down basically to respecting the rights of others. Hockey has provided him with an opportunity to play alongside other boys of his own age, boys of every nationality. faith and creed. He has learned, we hope, to accept these boys as team mates and friends and has discovered that it really doesn’t matter too much on which side you part your hair. He has also learned that in order to succeed you have to operate as a team, not as an individual and that in order to enjoy the game to the fullest he has to respect authority and to learn to take orders and apply them. He should have learned a measure of self control and also found out that he has in respect the rights of others and that to be an out- standing performer he has to give his best at all times. 12 Winning a trophy'or a championship is,a very gratifying thing but should not be considered as an end in itself. What should and does matter is whether or not a boy has benefitted from his play and the assoc- iations that he has formed. It matters not a whit that he will never be a great hockey player, the important thing is, has he learned to be a great citizen? _ The officiating has been good and the coaching generally has been all that could be desired. In some cases, however, people lost sight of the fact that hockey was provided for the boy and not the boy for hockey. We are coming down to the end of another season of hockey with payoffs opening on all fronts. For the most part this has been a very successful year for the Richmond Hill Hockey Association and this has been so despite the fact that this was a radical departure from other years of operation. 7 _ _ Septic Tanks Pumped o SPORT SPOTS + THE LIBERAL. Richmond Hi“, Ontario, Thursday, Marchirl'g 19g by Ron Craan WELL DIGGING BILL WILSON AND EARTH BORING R. R. 2 GORMLEY Unionville 298W14 Standard Tile RUMMAGE SALE Saturday, March 12 Bradford 2 - Putters 1 The Putters went to Newmar- ket to compete in the Newmarket Tournament last Saturday and were eliminated in the first round by Bradford. The Putters played just as well and as hard as they have at any time this year but bad breaks combined with some sloppy shoot- ing proved their downfall. Brad- ford opened up fast and had a two goal lead going for them ear- ly in the game. The Putters fought back hard and were even- tually rewarded with a goal by Wayne Harrington assisted by Jimmy Wilson and Midge Hiley. Tonight Brampton will be in Richmond Hill for the rubber game of a three game set with both teams owning one win. If you’ve never seen the kids in action, why not come out and watch this one â€"-â€" should be a really good game. In Brampton the little Squirt team has played some 37 games this season. whereas Ear] Methe has been hard put to find a dozen games for the Putters. These youngsters really put on a hockey show and Squirt hockey is be- coming a real drawing card. Coach Jim Pollard is having trouble arranging games to keep his Bantam team in shape for the North York County League play- offs. The Bantams are supposed to open the play-off series against Unionville but as Unionville is still very much alive in the O.M. H.A. playdowns the series keeps being postponed. Other teams in the area are sim- iliarly involved and therefore lack of competition is becoming a ser- ious problem. If anyone knows of a bantam team who are looking for some action, please contact Jim Pollard at TU. 4-2126 and Jim will see what he can do to accommodate. a handicap to overcome. Earl hopes that next year the Squirts can be organized into a proper league set-up and that more hockey for the boys will be the result. Baptams Suffering From Idleness Thursday. March 10 Weston 7 - Putters 0 A Weston team that was older and heavier than the Uplands Golf Club Putters came to Rich- mond Hill Arena last Thursday night and gave Carl Methe’s young charges a hockey lesson. The Putters never backed up and tried hard all the way but age and_ experience were just too big Tuesday, March 8 Unionville 3, Richmond Hill 2 The Pee Wee Hornet: opened the playofis against Unionville, at Unionville last Tuesday night and came home on the short end The Hornets will now go a- gainst Newmarket in a best ’two out of three series that should be a lulu. If you want to see ac- tion come down to the Arena to-night and bring your own tranquilizers. It could be that good. Rod Mabley opened the scor- ing for the Hornets assisted by Gary Charity and Phil Dobbs. Dobbs scored the second goal assist. The third and fourth goals were on fine solo efforts by Gary Charity and John Bookalâ€" am. Rod Mabley scored his se- cond goal of the night on a play set up by Gary Charity and Rob- bie Gropp. Gary Charity finished off the scoring on a play set up by Phil Dobbs. Goalkeeper Billy McVean was back in top form as some of his saves bordered on the spectac- ular. Time and again Unionville marksmen seemed to have Bill dead to rights only to have him make the big save in the clutch. With such inspired goaltending to back them up the Hornets played brilliant hockey and dom- inated the play throughout the games The Richmond Hill Peewee en- try eliminated Unionville from competition this year by string- ing together two straight wins. 0n the strength of their perfor- mance in this game in Richmond Hill they were very good value for their two wins. The quality of the work done on the various pieces of apparatus was very high and augurs well for the future of gymnastic com- petition in this area. The meet was a very spectacular produc- tion and all those concerned with the mechanics of it deserve the highest praise. Richmond Hill Hornets 6 Unionville 2 Richmond Hill finished in first place with 176 points. Wood- bridge took second place scoring 164 points, while Markham finish- ed in third spot with 157 points. Newmarket High School finished in last position with a 101 point total. Last Friday. the second annual North York Gymnastic meet was held at Richmond Hill High School and the hosts proved to be the winners in the overall standings. 7 V 7 7_ _ _ - tchmon JM 174% 5400/ {port/p Last Monday night the Rich- mond Hill Blueliners ousted Un- ionville Midget club from the North York playoff picture as they downed them by a 5 to nil score. The Unionville club were on the defensive most of the three periods and even when they made the odd sally they were smothered by the Blueline de- fense corps, of Pete Hiscott, Moose Tomlin and Ian Ross. All in all they only had seven hard shots on the net all night, which were handled with ease by goalie Don Laurie. The Blueliners goals were scored by Ritchie Elliott 1, Jim Briden 1, Tommy Reynolds 1 and two by speedy Glenn Hoop- er. Blueliners 2 Maple Tool 0 Ted Terry’s midget hockey club continued their winning ways last Wednesday night at Aurora arena as they dropped the highly touted Maple Tool midgets by a two to nothing score. This was a T. H. L. league game and the locals seemed to revel in the hard type of play typical of this league. Dennis Richardson played well on the forward line of Dean Wainwright and Glenn Hooper and scored the first Richmond Hill goal in 8 min. of the first period. Then Ritchie Elliott who played well all evening popped in another while the team was playing short handed at 10 min. of the second period. The Maple team pressed hard in the last period but were held off the score sheet by Don Laurie in the Hill net. NORTH YORK â€"â€" “The lives of citizens are more important than moving traffic.” a member of North York's Businessmen’s As- sociation said on hearing the Traffic Co-ordinatqr state plans run“: to increase vehicular traffic on Yonge Street would do away with the centre strip, which is pres- ently a safety-zone for pedes- trians crossing the busy highway, The plan has been approved in principle by Metro. Richmond Hill Midgets 5 Unionville 0 Unionville then came to life and poured in two fast goals to get back into contention only to have the Hornets lock the door by scoring their fourth goal as Charity scored from Dobbs and Mabley. Gary Charity opened the scor- ing for Richmond Hill on a play in which line-mates Rod Mabley and Phil Dobbs assisted. Doug Acomb scored the second Hill goal with assists going to Scott Sheppard and Jimmy Zubek. The third goal was a reverse effort as Zubek scored assisted by Shep- pard and Acomb. Friday, March 11 Richmond Hill 4 - Unionville 2 The Hornets resumed the play- off seri s with Unionville last Friday ight and played one of their best games of the season as they went on to win and tie the series up a one game each. De- fenceman Rich Chalklin and Norm McLeod were off the sick list and back in action and this tended to settle the team down. The Hornets carried the play to Unionville throughout the game and but for some erratic shooting could have piled up a larger mar- gin. In the first period, Unionville went into a fast two-goal lead and the Hornets didn’t seem to get untracked until well into the second stanza. Doug Acomb scored the first Hornet goal on a very pretty play with Scot Shep- pard 'and Jimmy Zubek assist- ing. A few minutes later Rod Mabley scored on a fine solo ef- fort to tie the score at 2-all. The third period saw both teams miss several chances but the Unio‘nville team was able to cash one opportunity in for a goal to win the game. Bill Mc- Vean played well in the Rich- mond Hill net but did not seem to be performing to his usually fine standard. of a 3-2 count. The team went to Unionville minus two defence- men and one forward as Norm. McLeod. Rich Chalklin andeob- by Patfield were on the sick; list. Both teams played good hockey in this game. but the Unionville team seemed to be inspired at times and deserved the win. Floor hockey is now approach- ing play-off stage at Richmond Hill High School.
