14 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario WWW For those who aspire to the graceful art of figure skating a professional will be available to give expert lessons. If it worked out real well maybe we could talk the world figure skating authorities into a champion~ ship for those over the age of consent. Well over, that is. The first Wednesday night, October 26, is an open night and absolutely FREE. All adults are urged to come with hockey skates, figure skates, speed skates, bob-skates or any other kind that you should happen to prefer. After the initial night the charge for a full year’s membership will be $10.00. If you’d like to try it without investing too much, you can attend as a guest for 75c and see how you like it. Fair enough deal, isn’t it? Mom and Pop are finally being invited to show their progeny that they too are pretty fair skaters and cut no mean figure on the ice. The Adult Skating Club of Richmond Hill starts to operate at the Arena on Wednes- day, October 26, from 8 to 10 pm. and will meet every other Wednesday until some time in March. You don’t have to be a figure skater to enjoy the club. Any old kind of skates are sufficient as long as you have fun. For those who never learned to skate in their youth, lessons are available at a Very nominal fee. Coffee and cakes are to be served as well so it should make a good evening of sport. It must be tough to be a Yankee. Come World Series time, no matter who the opponent, even if it were a team from Omsk in the U.S.S.R., they’ll be the popular favourite. By favourite we mean sentimental favourite, because nobody, well, hardly anybody in their own ev- er lovin' mind would bet against the power-packed Yanks. Nobody but a Pirate supporter that is. Sure the Leafs are going to get rolling eventually and win a game here and there, but this year it could be Chicago Black Haw s’ biggest year in a decade. {[‘hey may not end up with Lord Stanley’s silverware but they could make things awfully interesting for all concerned. Only time and the Canadiens can tell. . â€"- SPORT SPOTS â€" Johnny Favery is a little fellow with a heart as big as all outdoors. 'John was badly mauled in a football game against Northwestern Ghosts just three weeks ago and now that the stitches have a good firm grip on his .badly torn flesh he can’t wait to get into action again. There must have been great celebration in the Steel City last week as they finally own a world championship. Mazroski, the'timely‘home‘ run‘ hitter, and Elroy Face, fireman extraordinary,. were probably toasted by all the populace of Pittsburgh and deservedly so. Mr. Face un- doubtedly saved at least two games and possibly three in the Pirate cause and Mr Mazeroski’s home run shot wrapped it all up and you can’t do much better than that. Now that the sound and the fury is no more, for another year anyhow, the soap operas and old movies can get back on schedule and make all housewives happy. Hope you enjoyed the ending, damatic ending at that! We did because like a heck of a lot of other people, for some fool reason, we like to see the mighty Yanks hum- bled. Could it possibly happen to Montreal Canadians too, Or is this just too much to ask? -â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" If you want more information about the club and its activities. please contact Mrs. Perdicaris at TU. 4-1932. Membership is wide open, so get in there now while the getting is good and enjoy a good skating season. â€" SPORT SPOTS â€"- Toronto Argonauts have demonstrated‘ that they can be beaten and the Toronto Maple Leafs are doing their darnedest to show that they can't win. It’s a screwy world for sure! Don’t ever tell this fellow that football is strictly a big man’s game. This 130-pound bantam makes the big ones compete on equal terms and whether he is tack- ing' or bugging the ball he just seems to Whittle them down to his size. He really loves to play football and in the three games he sat out was sorelly missed by the rest of the Richmond Hill Indians. The annual autumn madness finally ended last Thursday as the Pirates finally wrapped up the World Series with a 10-9 win over the Yankees. The game see-sawed back and forth as runs came easy in the later stages of the game. Seven-all, then nine-all, and then the bottom of the ninth and the circuit clout by Bill Mazeroski that ended it all. Thursday} October A summary of the Ontario Hunting Regulations can be ob- tained from any office which is- sues a gun or hunting license or by writing to the Department of Lands and Forests, Parliament Buildings. Toronto. Safety Afloat Safe boat handling frequently becomes a part of safe duck hunt- ing. At this time of year hazards on the water are greatly increas- ed because of lower water tem- peratures and greater possibili- ties of violent storms. If you use a boat for duck hunting take every precaution. Do not over- load or overpower. Allow an ex- tra margin of safety for emergen- cies. Be sure there is on govern- ment approved life jacket for each passenger and put them on if a storm threatens. Do not carry loaded gus in a boat unless anchored in a blind. And do not Bradford scored in the ninth inning to move out in front by a 4-3 margin as Gregory, on bases on a single was moved to third on a double by Frank Loney and scored as a ban was hobbled st second base. Stan Thornington Billy “Red” Dunn was in the clear and away for a major score early in the first quarter but fumbled and the fumble was re- covered by the East Enders. The Richmond Hill attack seemed to stall after this episode and the East Enders were able to go ahead and win on two unconvert- ed touchdowns. A somewhat mysterious play in the third quar er gave the East Enders the winning score. Richmond Hill were in possession and were forced to kick on third down. The kicker was roughed on the play by a charging i'ast En- der front wall and the roughing was called by the game officials. During the alteration an East Ender grabbed the ball and went all the way for a major score which the officials somehow al- lowed. A mysterious play indeed! Richmond Hill Indians lost a 12-6 decision to East Enders on Saturday, October 8th in Rich- mond Hill. The Indians opened up the first quarter like a house afire but their attack fizzled out as_ the East End Team went on to Win. Bradford evened the game up in the eighth inning. Ted Van- derpol singled and was brought round to score as pitcher Jack Richards connected for a solid home run smash. Ninth Inning Duel Terry McCoskey quarterbacked the team in the absence of regul- ar quarterback Ian McIntosh and performed a very creditable job. McCoskey accounted for the lone Indian score as he went over center on a keeper play for the T. D. which went unconverted. Bill Wilson and Jim Preston played well in the losing Indian cause. Bradford won the first game of the series by a 6-5 margin and on the night’s play deserved the win. The Cleaners outhit the Bradford team but stranded run- ners and fielding miscues were the downfall of the Richmond Hill team Bradford scored six runs on six hits and had two er- rors charged against them. Wim- bridge collected five runs on nine hits, but their four errors, all of which proved costly, directly af- fected the outcome of the game. Wimbridge Wins 10 Inning Game At the end of 6%. innings. Bradford had a slender 1-0 lead. Bill Robson was safe on an error to open the bottom of the seventh and moved to second on a single by Glen Wright. Len McLean blasted a home run shot over the left field fence to score three runs and give Wimbridge Clean- ers a 3-1 lead at the end of sev- en innings Wimbridge Cleaners moved within one game of win- ning the York-Simcoe League championship and the O’Keefe Trophy as they defeated Bradford in Richmond Hill on Thursday of last week and again at Bradford on Saturday. The final series is a 3 out of 5 affair and opened up in Richmond Hill on Tuesday, October 11. The second game of the final series was played in Richmond Hill last Thursday night and saw the series evened up as Wim- bridge Cleaners won the ten-in- ning contest by a 5-4 margin. Indians lose Thanksgiving Weekend Doubleheader Series Timed for the opening of the duck season in Ontario, a sum- mary of suggestions and rules for the “preservation and en- cquragement of duck hunters in the province” has has been is- sued by the outdoor recreation division of the Ontario Safety League. This year Safety League an- ticipates the usual quota of pain- ful and fatal accidents. In an effort to reduce the toll the league offers a fairly reasonable catalogue of advice. Observe Hunting Regulations The Indians had no cause to rejoice on Thanksziving Day as the East York Team handed them a 30-14 pasting for the se~ 12-6 And 30-l4 Ontario Safety League Lists Proper Rules For Hunters Wimbridge Wins 2 Games In Row Battles Bradford For Championship 1960 Carefully inspect your gun, making sure there is no loose- ness in action or stock and the barrel is clean and free of ob- structions. Be sure your ammun- ition is’in good condition and of {the right size and load for the igun in which you are going to iuse it. lChoose A Captain Murray Thompson got the nod as the starting pitcher for the Cleaners, but was relieved by Ken Roberts in the fourth inning. Rob- erts came in with nine out and the bases loaded and proceeded to retire the side without a run being scored. He got one batter to bounce into a fielder’s choice cond loss of the weekend. Charlie Dunn opened the scar- ing for the Indians by breaking in on the East York kicker. blocking the attempted punt and then diving on the ball behind the East York goal line. The touchdown was converted and Indians had a 7-0 lead going for them at the end of the first quarter. Despite a marked territorial edge in play during the first half the Indians were unable to score and seem to suffer the Argo trouble of not being able to ca)- italize with any consistency when in close to the goal line. East York opened up an aerial attack in the second half and on three separate occasions the L]- dians were called on pass inter- ference. East York started to roll and they were just not to be denied. Quarterback Ian McIntosh was available for the second half of the game and seemed to give the Indians 3 lift. He passed to Red Donn for a major score that was not converted. Terry McCosâ€" key is a very good second quar- terback and about the only thing he lacks is confidence. A few more games at the pivot spot and he should not have to take a back seat to any signal caller in the league. The fielding of the Bradford shortstop, Harvey, drew raves from the Wimbridge team. Time after time he moved in either di- rection to cut 06 certain hits and drew applapse for his eiforts from fans and players alike. The third game of the series was' played on Saturday in Brad- ford and Wimhridge won going away by a 13-2 szore. One of the highlights of the game was the fine performance at third base by Norm Roberts. Cleaner manage- ment decided that Roberts needed a rest from his pitching chores and moved him to third base. He turned in a flawless game and proved once again that he is an honest-to-goodness all-round ball player. In this game with East York ends Jerry McGowan. Bob Sheri~ dan and Dennv Lynch were very prominent and all three played a terrific game. McGowan is a very effective tackler ,as he hits low. something that most people Seem to have forgotten how to o. The Bradford bats were quiet in the top half of the tenth in- ning and it looked like a long night ahead. In the bottom of the tenth Bill Degeer singled, followed by Bill Robson and Tony Hunter who beat out bunt singles. A single by Glen Wright scored Degeer and gave Wimbridge a 5-4 win and evened the series at one game each. , Wimbridge Win Saturday 13-2 Duck hunters should decide who will be leader or captain of the shot when hunting in pairs or larger numbers. This should be done before entering the bun-d or hide. The most experienced hunter should be chosen. If they are hunters of equal skill the position should be alternated from day to day. Sit Close tied the game uo again in the ninth inning as the Wimbridge right fielder hit a round tripper with nobody aboard. stand up to shoot in your boat â€" it's a good way to lose an expen- sive shotgun and maybe your life. Firearms And Ammunition Hunters in a blind or hide should sit close enough together when shooting in pairs so as to prevent either hunter from get- ting in front of the other hunt- er’s gun muzzle. Restrict Field Of Fire The field of fire for each hun- ter in a blind or hide should be agreed upon before shooting. The hunters field of fire should not overlap his partners by more than a 45 degree angle measured from the centre line right angled to the front or rear of the blind. THORNHILL HIGH SCHOOL Aurora has disbanded their junior football team and have somewhat disrupted the local high school schedule. However the Thornhill Junior Team is find- ing plenty of opposition to go against and sharpened their claWS on St. Andrews College last Wed- nesday. Thornhill Seniors had their win streak snapped as S. A. C. seniors defeated them in a rough and rugged game at St. Andrews. The S. A. C. crew clawed out z 19-15 victory over the Thornhill Team who almost won on a TD. that was called back for clippipg. and the runner coming from third was forced at the plate. The next batter bounced to Roberts on the mound. Roberts fired to Glen Wright at the plate to force the runner from third and Wright relayed tn Matt Kinnari at first base in time to catch the hatter and retire the side. Big Seventh Inning The junior soccer team under the tutelage of John Kajioka played against the highly touted Richmond Hill Junior Soccer Team and took a 4-0. loss. That they were able to hold the score down as low as they did against the strong Richmond Hill Team is a credit to the team and the coaching. - . . u As has happened so often in past games the seventh inning was the crusher for Bradford as the The S. A. C. team were sadly overmatched in this contest at Thornhill and by the end of the third quarter were behind a 46-0 deficit. Thornill eased up someâ€" what in the final quarter and went scoreless wining the game by the 46-0 gnargin. as Ray Smith blocked out the last defender in great style. The same Mr. Smith gathered in a pass from Roger Kedwell on a third down situation and went on to score handily. Paul sznrs hit for 2 T.D.’s while Kedx'lell notched 2 T.D.’s and four con- verts. Wimbridge power went to work and scored five runs. At the end of the sixth inning, the Wim- bri'dge team had a 6-0 lead and by the time the seventh inning was over they owned a 11-0 ad- vantage. Bradford scored two runs in the bottom of the ninth but it was the old story of too little and too late. Stan Thornington, in ad- dition to his fine work with the bat played a great game ln right field for the Cleaners and made two good running catches to de- feat the Bradford cause. V'thh Rumble 'went off tackle on his own six yard line and romped 1704,3[ar_d_s f‘or_the _sc_)_re Thornhill Seniors plaved Markham Seniors and in an un- inspired, lack-lustre game were very fortunate to be able to set- tle for a 12 all tie. RICHMOND HILL \ HIGH SCHOOL The Richmond Hill Junior Soc- cer Team managed to keep their win skein unbroken as they shut- out the Thornhill Team 4.0. Bob Lewis was the high scorer as he hit for two goals while Hans Goodmakers and Jeff Radley each scored once in a very well played game. _ -. "7". AL .- --- r"... v .. In a game with Newmarket Juniors the Richmond Hill Junior Team won by a 35-13 score and some members of the Hill team suffered agonies of frustration. A fumble on the opening kick- off by Richmond Hill paved the way for a TD. in only two plays. Minutes later Ruggero Battaglla roughed at Newmarket player be- hind his own line for a safety touch and the two points seemed to spur the Hill Team into torrid action. Denny Cooper scored three T.D.’s but only one of them counted in the final tally. He tightroped the line for a 75 yard gallop only to have his run nul- lified as it was ruled that he stepped out _of bounds. He caught With Robson and Hunter al- ready on base via a single and a fielder’s choice, Glen Wright was walked to load the bases. Stan Thornington drew a walk and a run was forced in. Len McLean kept up hlS long ball habit (re- cently acquired) and poked out a triple to bring in three more runs. Ken Roberts was safe on an error as McLean came in to score the fifth and final run of the inning. In the ninth inning, Norm Rob- erts singled and Grant Gibb walk- ed. Both runners scored on a single by left fielder Bill Robson. a pass and went for another only to have the pass ruled i1- legal and add to his frustration. Denny finally scored on an off tackle smash behind some good blocking to tally one legitimate touchdown. The Hill Team were blocking and tackling well as a reshuffle of the lines seems to have done wonders for the club. Ed. Addi- son, Denny Cooper. Bruce Wal- ker and Bob Percival were very prominent in the {Kill yin. On Friday, October 2lst.

BAYVIEW HIGH SCHOOL Markham Juniors defeated the Bayview High School Juniors by an 18-0 score in Richmond Hill. The green Bayview crew have only three players on the squad with experience while the rest are green hands. Denny Rich- ardson, Bill Barkley and Bob Promaine add the experience but it is not enough to carry the team to a win.
