Ray “Ozark” Fox is the guiding genius who started the lacrosse re\i\'al and he never in his wildest dreams imagined the player response that would be forthcoming. Roy's home telephone has been ringing.r steadily and he is up to his ears in would-he lacrosse players. At one time he-thought that his biggest problem would he finding enough players to field a team. now his problem will be to separate the wheat from the chaff and come up with the strongest team possible. The response from the Richmond llill area has been slightly terrific. Teenagers who concede that they have no chance of playing Intermediate "B" lacrosse. have pleaded with Ray for a chance to play between periods so that they will eventually develop into first. class la- crosse players. It looked for a while as it‘ lacrosse was really dead although an official burial service had never been held. but player response has proved otherwise. The Intermediate “B” league in which the Richâ€" mond Hill team will operate will consist of teams from Huntsville. Brooklin. StreetSville. Bradford. Fergus. Dundas and Woodbridge. It should be a very active league where good lacrosse will be the rule. VVoodbriclge and Brooklin in particular have been very prominent in O.L.A. circles in recent years. Money is the one stumbling block to Ray‘s plans at the moment. An outlay of a little over $200 will give some sponsor his own lacrosse team and one of the nice things about the league is that all games in Huntsville are to be broadcast all over the northern part of the province and a sponsor will get some very valuable radio coverage as well as having the satisfaction of having helped in a large way to bring lacrosse back to this area. If you are an interested sponsor or player please contact Ray Fox at BA. 1-4411 for more information. If you are interested in seeing good lacrosse playing in Richmond Hill support the games. when and if they get underway. Let’s hope that, Ray's ambitious plans all come to pass and that lacrosse goes over in a big way in our area. â€" SPORT SPOTS â€"â€" Just a small reminder that we need your help and co-operation if YOUR favourite sport is to receive its fair Share of publicity. One solitary human being just cannot begin to cover all activities going on in and around Richmond Hill these days. What makes it even more difficult is the fact that this is not done on a full- time basis but on evenings and week-ends â€" in other words, there just isn’t time. A phone call plus a few details to TU. 4-4057 will ensure YOUR activity gets its fair share of recognition and that you are not neglected or overlooked. We apologize if anyone has the feeling that they have been deliberately overlooked but a phone call will do wonders to clear the matter up to (we hope) everyone’s satisfaction. Mrs. Gibson, proprietress of the Gibson Girl dress store in the Allencourt Plaza. wants to hear from all young ladies between the ages of 15 and 60 who are inâ€" terested in competing for the title of “Miss Sports Queen” of Richmond Hill. Mrs. Gibson will be taking entries for this contest until Friday. May 13. at her store in the Allencourt Plaza. ‘ If you aspire to be the “Sports Queen" won‘t you please get your entry in to Mrs. Gibson as soon as pos- sible? This year the “Sports Queen” and her court will reign over the annual Sports Day Parade and of course there are prizes to be won. Don’t leave it until the last minute to enter the contest and take the chance of be- ing disappointed. The success of this venture depends upon YOUR entry into the competition. The contest will be well supervised and chaperoned and the young ladies will be under guard at all times. The contest itself will be conducted with all the rules of good taste and conduct that you would want to apply to an event. of this kind. Let's see those entries pour in to Mrs. Gibson as soon as possible. â€"- SPORT SPOTS ~â€" The baseball seminar. sponsored jointly by the Re- creation Committee and the Richmond Hill Ball Associa- tion had the first session at McConaghy School on Tues- day, April 5. The group present represented both coaches and umpires and some 34 people turned out for the evening of instruction. Coaches were under the instruction of Mr. Jim Maxwell of the Scarboro Recreation Commission and .he proceeded to fill in a brief history of the development of the game and then more specifically on to coaches' responsibilities and duties. The dynamic Maxie Schefl' instructed the umpire school and if a better instructor could be found anyâ€" where we’d be inclined to doubt it. A wee book in his capable hands is not a collection of boring rules and facts but a very live and interesting publication. His blackboard presentation of obscure and baffling rules soon cleared up doubts and misunderstandings that some of us have harboured for years. The Richmond Hill Ball Association would like to go on record as thanking the Recreation Committee for their co-operation in making these seminars a reality. It is generally conceded that the quality of coaching and umpiring in this area will reach new heights this year and that we now have the start of a very sound and vigorous organization. â€" SPORT SPOTS â€"- Don't forget that hockey comes to a spectacular tin- aIe in Richmond Hill Arena tomorrow night. All tro- phies will be presented to winning teams as well as awards to individual players. Final championship games will be played in the Little N.H.L. and Minor League series as well as exhibitions of mite and peewee hockey. Hockey will be leaving us for another year and this final night will give us our last chance to see the young- er set in action. Plan to attend and enjoy seeing all the thrills and pathos that championship games always bring. You‘ll never forget it nor regret it. â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" REGAL AUTO BODY 3|9 ENFORD ROAD RICHMOND HILL AV. 54702 Vern Hooley. Prop.

It will now be known as the Richmond Hill High School Track Club. Mr. Bill Bab- cock will be continuing with lhe club in a coaching capacity. The Recreation Commitee of Richmond Hill felt that sufficient funds were not available to en- able them to authorize a grant this year. It seemed as if the track was in danger of disband- ing but the club is still a very live organization. The track club will be carrying on until the close of the school term in June and will be able to send contestants to all the important track meets. The mid- get.

On Saturday, April 23rd. cirr- ling will start at 4.00 p.m. and finish at 10.00 p.m. with four sixâ€"end games. Following the conclusion of curling there wiil be novelty games and ice skat- ing followed by dancing in the sumptuous lounge.

April 24th commencing at 1.00 p.m. and concluding at 5.00 pm. Figure skating events will be held. prizes given and then come the refreshments to signal the end of the season‘s fun. The curling club executive has been approached by several peo- ple regarding leaving the ice in during the summer for the use Of figure skaters. This would mean the addition of equipment to the present freezing plant plus the keeping on of extra help at the club. The executive feel that this is not an econâ€" omically sound proposition at this time and the ice will be removed. The lounge will be available to mer bers and their friends dur- ing the summer months and it is expected that facilities will be available for wedding receptions etc. The setting is such that it would lend itself to an unforget- table reception and this facility wil no doubt prove to be a very popular one.
