Orillia l7 - Zeros 9 The Richmond Hill Zeros seem to be having some difficulty ï¬nding their way in the lacrosse wars as Orillia really poured on the steam to double the score on the local team. The Town and Country sponsored Zeros are coming up with some great ef- forts early in the game but seem to fade badly toward the end of the third period. Fleming Great There were some sliver linings in the game however.

Cochrane is having a centennial summer this year and over the July 1st holiday weekend, Dynes Jewellers are going up to participate in the two day softball tour- nament. The junket will take them to Kirkland Lake where the party will stay Chez Centa, and then drive on to Cochrane, about an hour and a half drive from Kirkland Lake. Safe journey to the team and lots of luck in the tournamen . ‘ â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" Another district athlete sidelined by ill health is Billy Bowen, Dynes Jewellers pitching ace. Bill con- tracted pneumonia and to top it off is having a bout with pleurisy as well. A lot of people are pulling for Bill and are hoping for the day when he is ï¬t to toe the rubber again. Don’t be too long away, Bill, but in the mean- time take good Care of yourself and come back when you’re fully recovered. We sincerely hope that Roy heals quickly and will soon be none the worse for wear and tear. It’s a rough way to start the summer holidays but by September he should be as good as new. Here’s wishing you a speedy recovery, from all your friends, Roy. Last fall Roy ï¬lled in as quarterback on the junior football team when Bruce Walker, the regular quarter- back, broke his ankle. Roy did a very ï¬ne job and was also a standout on the basketball team. Roy was attempting to hurdle the centre ï¬eld fence to retrieve a ball when his hand slipped on the fence rail and he fell heavily on his arm, sustaining a compound fracture. He was admitted to Branson Hos- pital and had to spend a few days there until the swell- ing subsided enough for the arm to be set. One of Richmond Hill High School’s better young athletes ran into a serious injury last week. Ro'y Finlay- son broke his arm very badly in a pre-game warm-up with _the Midget Softball Team, the Richmond Hill Vees.

Shorty has a lot of lacrosse moxie in his head and isn’t having too much of a struggle to keep up with the younger players. Keep up? This fellow is one of the team’s leading scorers. Not bad for a fellow 38 -â€" going‘on 39_â€" just like Jack Benny. If you havé not yet seen a gahxe why not have a look see one of these Thursday nights? You might even become an addict. This is a game that goes one step beyond and sep- arates the men from the men. Lots of stamina is need- ed to keep up the pace in an enclosed arena on a warm summer night, but the players all seem to have the necessary get up and go. And a spectacle this game can certainly be. Some of the checks handed out draw groans of vicarious an- guish from the crowd and they wince in sympathy with the checked player. How these boys can be knocked sprawling on that cement floor and not have the knee caps torn loose is beyond us. On top of which, most of the players scorn the use of knee pads. Lacrosse seems to be catching on as a big sports attraction in Richmond Hill. Every Thursday night sees a few more spectators than the week before and from comments heard everyone seems to be enjoying the Spectacle.

ME. 5-1000 The Eastern Canadian Track Championship were held at Civic Stadium in Hamilon last Satur- day. According to reports the track itself was in excellent com dition but despite the sunny wea- ther temperatures remained on the low side. Competitors were forced to run into a stiff head wind which slowed times down considerably. Marian Munroe Marian Munroe won the 80 metre hurdles in a very fine race that extended the local loss to the limit. Marian did not fare as well in the 220 yard event as she picked up a fourth place ï¬n- lsh.

Trailing 7-2 after three innings to the Vees the Lions scored three in the fourth, ï¬ve in the ï¬fth and three in the eighth to win. Despite the early lead by Richmond Hill there was very little doubt in any of the fans’ minds that the Lions would soon- er or later outscore the Vees. Richmond Hill lost this game on costly errors but their inabil- ity to score runners once they are on basas also seems to be a very weak point of the club. The loss was the third in a row for the Vees. North York Lions, the team experts ï¬gure to take all the marbles in the Willowdale Soft- ball League Midget Division, showad part of the reason why last Wednesday night as they ex- tended their season record to three wins and a tie in four games by whipping he Richmond Hill Vees 13-9. The seventh inning was a free scoring gain for both teams. Steve Varga singled for Brad- ford and moved to second on a single by Colin Jack. Ted Vander- pol was safe on an error as Var- ga came in to score as Harvey flied out to centre ï¬eld. Frank Loney rapped out a single to score Vanderpol as Bradford went ahead 5 to 1. Wimbrldge Rally The bottom hélf of the seventh inning saw the Wimbridge team come roaring back into contention The ï¬rst Wimbridge Cleaner run was scored in the bottom of the fourth inning. Stan Foster was put on ï¬rst as a result of being hit by an inside pitch. Tony Hunter clouted a sharp single to advance Foster to third base. Pit- cher Norm Roberts hoisted a long one to centre ï¬eld and Foster was able to score easily after the catch. Vees Lose Early Lead North York Lions 7-2 The second Bradford run came in the third inning. First base- man Colin Jack was hit by a wild pitch and drew a pass to ï¬rst base. Folles singled to move Jack to third and he came in to score as Vanderpol was safe on an error. The lead-off man for Bradford in the second inning was pitcher Bob Armstrong. He lined a rising shot over third base only to be robbed of what looked like an extra-base blow. as Ken Roberts made a sensational one-hand grab of the smoking liner to come to brother Norm's rescue. Roberts walked lead-off batter Bob Folles and sacriï¬ces by Lar- ry Edney and Ted Vanderpol sent Folles to third base. A single by Dave Harvey scored Folles to give; Bradford an early lead. Norm. Roberts, on the mound for the Cleaners was in trouble right from the ï¬rst inning.

Bradford Moves Ahead 'raa flfA/efed 'ee‘ Pt Of particular Interest to track men and football fans is the fact that his son Tom ,now 21, and assistant pro at Jasper, Alberta, was an outstanding runner and pigskin man. Two years ago Tom copped the Eastern Canadian Col- lege championship in the 100- yard and the 220-yard events. The year before that the brawny youngster finished second to the great Russ Jackson of McMaster University in the scoring race in Intermediate Intercollegiate Foot- ball Union. This year he started out as assistant golf pro under his father at the Thornhill Lad- ies Golf Club before leaving for the west and will be coming back "Frank got a hole-ineone at the Tecumseh Golf Club and another at the McKeller Golf Club. Frank Mann, 45, completing his first season at the Thornhlll Lad- les Golf Club is into his 26th eason as a pro. He and his fam- ly came to The Hill last January from Ottawa where he spent two years at the McKeller Golf Club. Prior to that he wracked up 21 years at the Tecumseh Golf Club, also in the Otthwa area. He start- ed out as a pro at the now de- funct Willowdale Golf Club. The present Alglnqulu Hotel ln Wil- lowdale is the site of the old clubhouse. Bob Lamb, by the by, has chalked up four holes-in-one. Two were achieved at Uplands, one at the Summit Golf Club and one on the Waterloo greens. Comes From Ottawa Bob's assistant, Howard Kelly, although only 20 now, has al- ready spent four years as assist- ant pro. He started out at the Lakeview Golf Club, Toronto and three years ago joined Bob Lamb. Howard is married to the former Elsie Bakowfky of Toronto and is not unmindful of the fact that his ten-week-old son might be just the right kind of material that could follow in his father's footsteps. To get back to Bob, following a five-year stint in the 'army he was pro at the Waterloo Golf Club, Galt two seasons before going to the Summit Golf Club. He is now competing his 13th season there. He is married to the former Lorraine Orvls of Shelbourne, Ontario and the fa- ther of three children, 12-year- old Beth, seven-year-old Mary, and a son. Wib, ï¬ve. Bob Lamb, born In Scotland where he got into the golf game at the age of eight as a caddy, came to Canada in 1929 and until 1939 was assistant pro at Toron- to’s Uplands Golf. Bob has the distinction of coming from a golf- ing family. The pro at Uplands was his brother William. Now 58, William is winding up his 27th season as pro at the Lambton Golf Club. also in Toronto. An- other brother, Charles. now re- tired, completed a long and dis- tinguished pro career in Ken- tucky.

Golï¬ng and statistics go hand in hand and to these sportsmen it will be of interest to know that Richmond Hill's four golf professionals are each 44 years of age on the average, have each been pros for 21 years and have each averaged two and one-half holes-in-one. These av- erages were arrived at by totalling the four pros’ ages, their number of years in the profession, and the holes-in- one and dividing each total by four. A1 Patterson pitched a fine game for the Yankees and got support from Clay Chapman who hit safely three times. Chris Coughlin pitched well for the Minor softball seems to be in a mild state of muddle at this mo- ment so that results of games are not too clear cut. One thing that would be of tremendous value would be for coaches to put down their players names carefully in the score books, taking pains to spell the names correctly and to see that first names are also used Playing positions would also be of great value. 0f ‘ the games played during the week of June 20th to 24th only three results are available.
