The alleys are donated with the players taking turn about in setting up pins. Each member pays ten cents per game which is turned back into the league to cover trophies and the banq- uet at the end of the season. Since the start of this league just a few years ago (8 or 4) there have been seven annual trophies sponsored by local mer- chants and firms â€" The Champs Trophy â€" presented by Maple Electric, was won by the win- ning Bantam Team of Ricky Cal- der.

Just how much the supervision and friendship of one Jim Hodgâ€" son is appreciated, can be realiz- ed best when you note the re- sponse given by each and ev- ery boy and girl when he speaks to them. Quite single handedly Jim looks after the Bantams and Juniors. All season through, â€" looks after their play-offs, selects their trophies and arranges for their banquet. Along with a most sincere thanks to Jim Hodgson from the parents and interested residents, on behalf of the League. Hannah Fynbo presented Jim with a lov- ely banlon sports shirt. Wells Crests were given to Patsy Kerr and Evelyn Palmer for Hi Score in league play. Diplomas for Bowler of the Year, were presented to Bantam Craig Shields and Junior John Rumble. each receiving a tie and cuff link set, as well. Each member was given a crest and pen suitably inscribed, “Maple Junior Bowling League.” Not to be outdone the last place champion team was pre- sented with a fitting diploma. Better luck next year to Craig Shields. Glen Saltern, David Reid. Sandra Bourk and Judy A rousing round of applause greeted the ladies in the kitchen as the boys and girls showed their appreciation to the mem- bers of the newly formed George Bailey Home and School Associa- tion who catered to a wonderful turkey banquet. .vh baseball, of Just in case the film had mis- sed a point or two, an amusing skit was performed by pupils Lynda Gilbert and Tommy Wit- ty. Mother, Mrs. Gene. Dollery, and older children, Mr. Bob Bright and Mr. Ross Knight. The skit, which was a family situation was written and narrated by Mrs. L. Gilbert who is a teacher at Richmond Hill and the mother of two teenage girls. Mrs. Gilbert pointed out ways in which par- ents could help their children to learn such things as colors, coun- ting, forming good study habits etc. in everyday occurances. Miss Wier’s room was the winner of the picture for the attendance record. Mr. Harold Clapp of Fraserdale Farms Concord has been coach- ing a hockey team of boys this past winter at Richmond Hill sponsored by Wimbridge Clean- ers. Six of the players are Con- cord boys, David Day, Don Day, John Clapham. Garth Poole, Bob Broome and Tom Clapp. During the season the team won 18 out of 20 games played. At the fin- als. played last week. they won 4 to 3 on Monday and 3 to 0 on Friday. giving goalie Dave Day a shutout game. The team are now the champions of the Richmond Hill Minor Hockey League. Tom Clapp was given the outstanding player award. With outstanding players like these boys from Concord it would be nice to have some of the in- dustry in Concord to sponsor some teams as it seems to me I have heard that Concord boys make a pretty good showing in other man: u wei. Concord Home and School As- sociation held their regular mon- thly meeting in the school on Monday, April 11, with President Mr. Ross Knight in the chair. The meeting was fairly well at- tended and only a few had come out especially to hear the pre- iously announced programme on “How To Prepare Your Child For Grade One." As Monday nights programme was aimed at parents of children of all ages I am sure they were not too dis- sappointed and we hope to see them out next month. The execu- tive made use of a film entitled “Family Circles" which was made by Forest Hill Home and School Association with the help of ex«- perts such as some professional actors, a family court judge, a psychiatrist and a psychologist. The film helped us to see how much the family circle can and does influence the child. As to whether it is a help or not of course depends on the family. This fact was illustrated quite clearly during the film. to make money during tuture money raising affairs. Here is the chance you have all been wait- ing for, let’s hope for some new ideas on this ever-present obliv gation. The lst Concord Cub and Scout1 group committee meeting was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Orr, Rockview Gds. on Wed- nesday, April 13, Chairman Mr. Jos. Boron was pleased to have such a good turnout of fathers, some of which were out for the first time. Cub Master Mr. Har- ry Webb gave the fathers some advise on proper camping pro- cedures and a number of inter- esting plans were finalized for the May weekend at Oxtrail Camp. Mr. Webb is having no- tices prepared to send home with the Cubs suggesting suitable e- quipment, clothing etc. necessary for a comfortable and active weekend. All members present agreed on how much easier it was to accomplish the business on the agenda when there were more than the usual faithful few out to the meeting. Remember Scouting in Concord can only be active if! we have an active Group Com- mittee and a Group Committee} can only be really active with the full support of the fathers of Cubs and Scouts at the meetings. The next meeting of the com- mittee will be held at the home of Mr. Murray Nordin. Rock- view Gdns. on Thursday, May 12, were the final plans for the camping weekend will be made. Hope you are all saving your hot- tles for the Scout bottle drive. Sports Incidently I was stunned to find I was the only parent rep~ resenting Mr. McWhirter’s room. The nominations committee chairman, Mrs. Gilbert, reported the slate of officers is still lack- ing a president and a vice presi- dent. Members were asked to contact possible nominees for these offices in person and to write their nominations to the secretary, Mrs. Henry Nordin, R. R. No. 2 Maple, at least two weeks before the annual meeting which will be on Monday, May 9.

One of our newer members, Mrs. Earl Bell, Hillside Ave.. volun- teered to be an executive officer and being interested in learning more about her new job will be attending the Home and School Federation convention at the Royal York Hotel on April 20 and 21. It is very gratifying to have new members come forward in this way, lets hope this will in- fluence others to do the same. Cubs And Scouts Mothers of Cubs and Scouts are invited to attend the next meeting of the Mothers .uxil- iary to be held on Monday, April 24, at the home of Mrs. Tom Roach, Rockview Gds.
