V.-.” w enve. v“ mu, uuuo, nu “cu; The theory is that the fish were taken to stock a private lake. If you ever find out where the private lake is you’ll really be in for some fine and fancy fishing. There just isn’t anything in the whole wide world \that somebody won’t try to steal no matter how odd or dif- ferent. “Pardon me are you a piano tuner, sir?” “No, I’m a man who thinks for myself, I steal trout for a living.” The line may turn up on a cigarette commer- social someday, don"t bet against it. With summer holidays fast approaching it may be a good idea to check over your first aid kit. If you don’t have a kit it might be just as well to get one real soon. Complete first aid kits are now on sale that contain everything from a clinical thermometer to poison ivy lotion. Each kit contains a very handy pocket-sized book on what to do when various emergencies arise. All in all, it‘s a real good deal for the money and no one should go on a holiday without one. It is hoped that many business places and organi- zations will see fit to enter floats and help to make up a big and colourful parade. If you like parades â€"â€" and who doesn’t? -â€" plan to be in town on Wednesday, June 25th. Draw tickets will be available on some very worthwhile prizes and all monies realized go to further the minor ball program. Let’s all do what we can\to make this year‘s parade as successful as the preceding ones. Don’t forget the time, Saturday, June 17, at 2 pm. After you’ve seen the show and got the urge to try it a bit, don’t go home and bounce on the mattress. Try the trampolines at the centre and you’ll find that it‘s even fun for a rank beginner. Hey! Not a triple twist at your age grandma! it’s not dignified!!! â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" The annual Sports Day Parade will be held this year on Wednesday, June 28th. The parade, held each year in support of minor ball in the area, will highlight minor softball teams this year in exhibitions of their softball skills of the Town Park. â€"- SPORT SPOTS â€"â€" Did you notice the news item that came up recently about the character or characters who stole. 20,000 trout fingerlings? They were in tubs at a hatchery and when attendants went to check up on the tubs, no fish! Later in the season the Ontario Championships will be staged at the Richmond Heights Centre. With On- tario championships on the line entries are expected from many United,States cities and from New York state in particular. Athletes from the area, representing all sports, will be taking part in the parade and decorated floats will be competing for prizes. Committee chairman is the genial Stan. Ransom and he is being nobly aided and abetted by Fred Gardiner (not “Big Daddy” Gar- diner of Metro fame). Three young Richmond Hill athletes will be vying for a placing in the rebound championships. Bob Owen, Kel. Tonner and Wayne Kelly are all given an excellent chance of finishing at the top of the heap. Other con- testants will be coming from Peterborough, Barrie, Oshawa, Oakville and Toronto as most Central Ontario centres will be represented. Jerry Luschak, former professional tumbler and high diver, a man who has given performances all over the world will be on hand to coach the contestants. To add to the excitement of the event Jerry will give a breath-taking performance as he will demonstrate the full bag of trampoline tricks. Elizabeth Austin, Ontario Novice Women’s Gymnastic Champion, will be in com- petition and, in addition to her other honours, Elizabeth was runner-up in the Eastern Canadian all-round gym- nast in the women’s division. Darrell Maddock, Novice All Round Gymnastic Champion of Ontario will also be taking part in the meet. VOLUME LXXXI, NUMBER 50 BUILDING A SUMMER COTTAGE? Ilse Our Credit Plan 4 to 5 Years to Pay ALL QUALITY MERCHANDISE SHEPPARD 8. GILL Control and co-ordination are absolute essentials for a trampoline performer as perfect timing and ex- cellent body control enable a performer to be a stand- out in rebound tumbling. Some of the manoeuvres age so graceful that it almost seems to be a ballet performâ€" ance and, like ballet dancers, rebound tumblers must be in excellent condition. A trampoline, as you probably know is a canvas fastened to a rigid-frame with springs. When you bounce on a trampoline you rebound with a vengeance and hence the name rebound tumbling. Remember when you were a wee nipper and liked to bounce on a mattress and bed spring? Same thing only with more bounce and combined with some 'fine tumbling feats that make for a spectacular and graceful performance. Saturday, June 17, will see a lot of young Richmond Hill and area people up in the air. Literally up in the air that is. Reason for the mass levitation will be the Central Ontario Rebound Tumbling Championships which will be staged at the Richmond Heights Plaza Trampoline Centre. Open 8 to 5 Monday to Friday . S to 12 Saturday LUMBER CO. LTD. 71 Centre St. East, TU. 4~1361 “In Essentials Unity; in Non-Essentials Liberty; in all things Charity” Joe Horvat, stylish Jeweller first sacker, led off the second inning by lacing out a single. By the time the Bowler outfield had finished fumbling the ball, Hor- vat had come all the way to score. Williamson singled and moved to second as Blair drew a walk and Steffan filled the tracks with a single. Tony unter found one of Roberts' f’ferings to his liking and punched a shot over the fence to add four more runs to the Jeweller total. This gave the Jewellers an 8-0 lead and, strangely enough fin- ished Dynes scoring for the night. as Jack Morkin‘s long fly ball was dropped in centre field, Jackson then blasted another shot to centre field and again Johnson miscued on the play with Morkin advancing to third base. Tom Easbon and Johnny Hatch grounded out to end the inning. Hunter Hits Grand Slam Homer on’catdher Si1 Stefl‘an’s ringing double. Centre fielder Tony Hun- ter singled and came in to score The Jewellers gave the Bowler starter, Joe Roberts, a rough reception as they scofied three runs in their half of the first inning. Roberts was also the vic- tim of errors as centre fielder Len Johnson hobbled two succes- sive drives that looked like cer- tain outs. Lead-off batterfor the Jewell- ers, Moe Williamson, went out via the strike-out route. Second baseman Bob Blair drew a walk and was brought round to score Jack Morkin, the shortstop with the buggy Whip arm and deadly thorwing accuracy, play- ed a sensational game for the Jewellers. Hard smashes that looked like sure singles were gob- bled up in Morkin’s glove, and the Lightning accurate throw to the initial sack would catch the runner by half a stride. Morkin seems to have regained the form he enjoyed two seasons back and without doubt, has no peers in the North York League at the shortstop position. Score In First Inning Bill Jackson drew the assign- ment for the Dynes pitching chore and Mr. Jackson registered his second win of the season. Working in a methodical manner, he struck out five and walked three men. while giving up six hits over the six inning contest. Morkin Sensational Dynes Jewellers won their third straight start in North York League softball action by defeating North Yonge Bowl by an 8-2 score Thursday night of last week. The clouds were gathering throughout the game and by the sixth inning rain had started to fall in earnest. As the third out came in the bottom of the inning, Umpire Lou Visconti called the game.

All in all it would ap- pear to be a very interesting seaâ€" son from a spectator point of view. With the signing of pitcher Al. Sullivan, the Jewellers have come up with a very effective mound combination that should give the opposition a great deal of trouble Sullivan is no stranger to Rich- mond Hill fans as he has twice appeared here while hurling for the NHL. All-Stars. This was Dynes’ initial appear- ance in the home park and, jud- ging by what they showed, are in for a good year. Bob Blair adds strength to the infield at second base and Joe Horvat is a very effective first sacker. Both men wield very effective bats. Bill Jackson is his old effective self on the mound and Tony Hunter adds a tower of strength to the centre field slot and his big booming bat speaks for itself. Noted In Passing an error and both Johnson and Mann came in to score on a single by catcher Stew Hilliard. At this point rain started to fall and, as the last Jeweller struck out in the bottom of the sixth inning, the game was called. Len Johnson started the Bowl- ers off on the right foot by sing- ling to open the top of the sixth inning. John Mann was safe on It also ended Roberts’ session on the mound as Frank McQuaid came on in relief and handcuffed the Jewellers fon the remaining four innings. Bowlers Score In Sixth The information was given to the town’s planning board last week when enquiry was made as to the necessary re-zoning.

I The 2,500 square-foot plant is divided into a woodworking de- partment, office, a dipping and drying room and storage quar- ters for liquid plastic. It takes seven machines to recondition a Oscar devoted several years to inventing special reconditioning machinery. He was helped in the designing and the manufacture of a model by one of the part- ners, Roy Richards of Langstaff, for 16 years a tool and diemaker. The permanent machinery is man- ufactured by Phillips Electron- ic Limited with whom Oscar was associated three years as a de- signer. Two months ago the .business itself was organized. Beside Oscar and Roy there is Percy Blanchard, mechanic. of Richvale, and George Sheppard of Concord who brings to the firm a wealth of business know-how. Pin Project Bowling is not only a natural- ly popular sport but big business as well. Plant Manager Oscar Kinzle of Willowdale, the Ger- manaborn mechanical engineer who invented the specialized ma- chines for the business, said: “People take it for granted that a bowling pin lasts forever. This just isn‘t so. Pins are like hum- ,ans. They take .a_ lot of punish~ inent. They 'wear indifferent ways and wear means a loss of balance which in turn can have a negative effect on a player’s temperament as well as his score ‘sheet.” Not only that, he went ‘ on, but the wear and tear on pins is an expensive proposition for the bowling alley operator. The' plant buys up pins which hither- to were consigned to the furnace. “The operators recoup some- of the original purchase price," said Oscar, “and we get them at a good price which enables us to sell them back for a reasonable sum.” In short, the operators gain, the plant profits, and the players profit by way of better games thanks to guaranteed bal- ance in the pins. German-Born A plant which takes used bowl- ing pins and reconditions them to a “better than new” state, is Richmond Hill’s newest indus- try. It‘s a four-way partnership and officially opened this week at 360 Enford Road, off Industrial Road, with a staff of five. Pro- fessional Bowling Service will for the time being at least re- strict sales to the Toronto and district area. It expects to turn out 70 sets of pins per day, which means 350 shining, perfectly bal- anced pins every eight-hour day.

It will be used by ethnic groups for open air con- certs and summer festivals. The firm said that there are a few other pin reconditioning outfits in the province but doubt whet-her their competitors have succeeded in working out the machine phase, production meth- ods and marketing techniques exemplified by the Richmond Hill plant. The company’s specially designed machines are registered. The partners said they want to stress one thing, that hard work, ingenuity and a marketable prod- uct more than makes up for a lack of a lot of hard cash. They contend there’s plenty of oppor- tunity left for the industrious in Canada and beside hoping to make a bit of money for them- selves want to prove this fact to themselves and everyone else in- terested. Every phase of the recondi- tioning operation has been care- fully worked out and represents one part of a smooth-flowing as- assembly line process. The part- ners say that while they are con- tenting themselves with a 350- pin per» day output now, they will increase production when they can find and train more men. ‘It’s an intricate business,” said Roy Ri- chards. “It takes time to train an employee and each must be tops in his field.” The partners are proud of their pins’ excell- ence and jealous of the young firm’s reputation. A key man is Peter. Franke, also from Ger- many. Opportunity bowling pin. From the time the game-scarred pin enters the plant until it leaves. it is sub- jected to a cutting machine which removes 01d plastic and extran- eous, dented wood, primed. dip- ped in plastic and dried (often as many as three times), following which it is striped and the stripes covered with two coats more of clear plastic. Then it is re- grooved and worked over for per- fect balance. Lost wood-weight is compensated for by exact weight in plastic.
