Twelve-year- old David Long, son of Mr. and Mrs. L. Long of 156 Church St. S., Richmond Hill, has given voice to his admiration for the Maple Leafs in a 14-stanza poem. Ac- companied by friend Steve Brown, also 12, and like him a Grade 6 student at McConaghy Public School, he delivered the poem to “The Liberal”. He assumed, cor- rectly, that this bit of immortality was the just due of his favourite team. If the Leafs justify even half the admiration expressed by this work there is no question about them toppling the mighty Caandiens for the Stanley Cup. of 222.5 points, with Woodbridge second with 207.8 points.

Stan Ransom, ‘The Hill’s’ genial barber, holds to the gen- eral rule, but because familiarity breeds forgetfulness of facts where one's neighbour is concerned, it might not be generally realized that Stan is a third-generation barber, that the business was established 75 years ago by. grand- father Moses Ransom, to be followed by Stan Senior and now Stan Junior. Stan Junior has been clipping hair for the past 12 years. Nor is it generally known that counting extra barbers employed over the years, the Ransoms have operated a barbering centre for 95 years in terms of barber-time, and finally, in this clipper-and-scissor period approximately 300,000 have been shorn of their locks and trimmed. This isn’t counting the thousands of faces that have been shaved. Without wishing to be facetious, it may well be said that the Ransoms have had a hairy old time of things since 1886. Iwho really likes kids, arranged a hockey game for the boys of the Orange Home. The game was played against the Bisons, coach~ ed by Gord Pipher. and the Ar- ena was fairly jumping with en- thusiasm. The Orange Home Team was piloted by Glen “Punch” Phillips and he did a more than credit- able job with his young team. The Bisons, a more inexperienc- ed team were hard pressed to win the game by a 2-1 score. Richard de Graft, in goal for the Home was fabulous as he made save after save.

STAN RANSOM Local Sports Stan 'ocleey :uedf am 25 He feels that the board should have some say in regulating ve- hicle speeds in and near parks. He is lead to this belief personally witnessing an overall disregard of safe speeds by drivers who motor in, to and around the town park. As to spending money on parks, he assumes that the board. which meets once a month, will work out budget requirements and'present them to town council. A‘. the moment council is op- posed to a by-law setting up operations of the new parks board which would give the board po- wer to make by-laws, and objects as well to voting one mill of the tax rate to the parks guardians. But Stan is nothing if not philos- ophic and feels things will work out. The growing pressure of sports needs alone, he says, will make itself felt. Double Wedding Another interesting feature a- bout this handsome young Ran- som is the fact that Stan married Betty Maltby of Richmond Hill and Betty’s brother Harold mar- ried Stan‘s sister Helen. Yes. it was a double wedding. Stan's other sister, another Betty, is now Mrs. William Moore of Youngstown. Ohio. Stan and his wife are the parents of four children, Sharon, 7, Danny, 5, Billy 3 and Betty Jr. 1. Serving with Stan on the new Parks Board are Russell Tilt. Bill Ruttle. Norman Brown and Alan Smyth.

He recently ad- ded to his indoor sports interest, he said, by taking chess. Parks Member “Generally speaking the Hill’s park situation isn’t good," he told ‘The Liberal,’ “We have one area (the town park) capable of accommodating any sport in- cluding baseball if the players can be trained not to bat too hard. Otherwise it is too small for that game." He is interested in the townâ€"owned land on Crosby Ave. a five-acre parcel which, pending levelling and sodding op- erations could provide all-sports facilities. He said: “We have to remember that soccer, hardball, softball and football, and rugger this year, present problems. In order to work out a suitable schedule for our various sports we're going to need new and larger recreational grounds."
