14 Sil Steffan, President of the newly formed Rich- mond Hill Ball Association, is going into a new commer- cial endeavour. Si] is now the local representative for the Imperial Life Assurance Company and everyone wishes him well in his new line of work. â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" Two local arms of the law, Police Constables Bob Deighton and Bill Oakley are forming a boys’ midget softball team to compete in the North York League. Any boy 16 years old and under is urged to contact these two gentlemen at TU. 4-4433 for further details. â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" After six years of ,operation, the Richmond Hill Track Club now finds itself without a mentor. Coach Bill Babcock will be attending a course this summer at McMaster University, leading to a Bachelor of Physical Education degree and will not have the time or the op- portunity to coach the team. The track club has pro- duced some remarkable performers, chief among them John Passmore, Marian Munroe, Diane Hayes, Gary Kozak and others who are as good as any club in this country. has to offer. Seems a great pity that a club with such a great record and whose performers ~brought such renown to our town is now in danger of folding. If any- one has any ideas of how the club can be salvaged, won’t you please come forward and make yourself and your organization known. The need is urgent. â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" Two Richmond Hill residents and former members of Richmond Hill Track Club gave great performances at the 91st Highlanders Games in Hamilton last Satur- day. Marian Munroe ran second, and a very close second, to Nancy Lewington in the 50 yard dash. Lewington specializes at this distance while Marian becomes more effective over the 100 and 220 yard distances. Great things are expected of the young Miss Munroe this year as she tries for a place on the Canadian Olympic Track Team in the trials at Saskatoon. John Passmore attended the games as a member of the McMaster University one mile relay team. In the one mile relay for Canadian Universities, McMaster won by 40 yards and covered the distance in 3 minutes. 28 and 2/10 seconds to break the old record by 3% seconds. The McMaster team won over a U of T team that has been rated by experts as the best team in the history of the University of Toronto. ' After a 45 minute rest the same quartet ran in the open mile relay event and finished in third place in 3 minutes, 27 and 6/10 seconds to set a new Canadian University indoor record and also set a new native Canadian record. The McMaster team deserve loud ap- plause for their great performance and John Passmore helped in no small way. Track and field experts now rate Passmore as one of the greatest hurdling prospects in the world today. John got his start in the Richmond Hill Track Club was going to represent Richmond Hill in the trials at Saskatoon. The club is now in danger of collapsing and Passmore will probably be forced to represent some other club in order to get to Saskatoon. our town could use the publicity accruing from an event of this magnitude but fate and lack of capital seem to decree otherwise.

The Richmond Hill Ball Association, in conjunction with the Recreation Committee, is sponsoring a seminar for coaches and umpires to be held at McConaghy school on April 5, 12 and 19. If you want to help, and the need is definitely urgent, please contact Grant Gibb at TU. 4-3435 or Tom Craig at TU. 4-4059 and do your bit to help. The kids need you and you and YOU. 3AOI'n/lif/ 6" $4 Iii-Lights Toward the end of March it is proposed that an Optimist chapter be started in Richmond Hill. From what we can gather the Optimist movement is interest- ed chiefly in working with and for children. If you are desirous of belonging to a service club of this type please contact Jim Ley at TU. 46025. Details of the meeting, time and place are to be announced later. Hockey is slowly but surely drawing to a close with playoffs starting all over the country in all leagues, both large and small. Wick Mills finally had a team sponsored by him win a trophy as his Juvenile team won the Stew Patrick Trophy, emblematic of the North York County League Juvenile Championship. Nobleton and Alliston who were to compete in the playoffs backed out of further competition this year and left the field and the trophy to the Richmond Hill team. It was defin- itely not a hollow victory as the Richmond Hill team had defeated both teams very decisively on the season’s play. Congratulations, Wick, here’s hoping that there are more trophies won by your teams in years to come.

The game between the Flyers and the good goal keeping by Flyers‘ fabulous Ray Wintjes and all-tar David Reid of the Dino- saurs, each admitted only one. 06ng eague Richmond Hill took part in the Georgian Bay Volleyball Cham- pionships at Barrie last week-end. The meet was very successful and produced some fine volley ball competition with Brock Colleg- iate emerging as the over-all win- ners as they won over all oppos- ition.

Putters 3 - Brampton 0 The Uplands Golf Club Put- ters, Richmond Hill Squirt hock- ey team downed Brampton 3-0 Thursday night in Richmond Hill.

Ron Hogarth played a very steady 'game in the Richmond Hill goal to earn a well deserved shut-out. The Putters played excellent positional hockey and seem to be coming into top form for the Brampton Squirt Tournament in April. Coach Earl Methe feels that his young team will give an excellent account of themselves in this tournament.
