Lorne McLean, speedy outfielder with Dynes Jewellers softball club, has been in hospital recently. For some time. Lorne has been troubled and handi- ‘ capped by a knee iniury. As a result of a visit to the l stitch and scalpel department of Branson Hospital, the knee is as good as ever. In the meantime, thank the good Lord for the dedicated men who are keeping the show on the road. Their reward will be in seeing other people’s children grow into happy, healthy, well-co-ordinated young adults who don’t require the services of a head shrinker. And, somehow, through some mys- terious alchemy, coaches stay younger than others who ply more sedentary occupations with their spare finnan This blase, couldn’t-care-less spirit is even in- vading the high school set. Time was when on the day of the football game the whole school, including teachers. was foregathered along the touch lines. High school football heroes today are the loneliest guys in the world. Nobody seems to care any more and it’s a rather disturbing situation. timefli Try a flyer at watching the son and heir, and do make a point of meeting the coach. Everyone will benefit and you will benefit most of all. It’s surpris- imz how many fathers come out of curiosity, were bitten by the bug and stuck around to offer help where needed. It could easily happen to you and. if it does, there isn’t a thin dime in it for anyone. This is one case where virtue is definitely its own and sole reward. This coach is the man who will teach the off- spring of others the art of the game that applies, rules of fair play and, above all, we hope, the true meaning of good sportsmanship. The coach is doing his job because he genuinely likes kids. Mom and Dad just seem to trust to some divine power that what their son or daughter is being taught will be what; they_w_ould want for their offspring. VBLUME LXXXII, NUMBER 19 Men who run and operate minor sports for the kids must indeed be paragons of virtue. If this isn’t so, then how to explain narents’ lack of interest in his character and integrity? Night after nightwyonng junior is packed off to the ball park, to the arena, or any other place where organized activities of the junior variety are taking place. A good half the parents don’t even know the name of their boy’s coach! How differently they look at the formal school education of their children. Parents seem to enjoy belonging to home and school associations, flock to see what Johnnie’s and Jane’s teacher is like on the first parents’ night, and want to know just how good a teacher is filling little heads with knowledge. -uv “Ia-Ink v *v; as long as three years and illgv'e yet to see th; lmy’s parents. You get to feel that they’re almost all brphans. Your bov’s coach is trusted with just as impor- tant a mission as his school teacher. Where the school teacher teaches the three R’s, the coach teaches character and the ability to co-operate with others for a common goal. If that isn’t important, then what is? If your son is presently playing hockey, make it a point to get out to a few games. Once a week prob- ably won’t impose too great a strain on anyone. Make yourself known to his coach. He'd like to meet you. Some coaches have had chqrge of the same boy for __ 1---. .. LI... u Although at times the lack of parental interest in junior’s activities sometimes drives officials, coach- es and referees up the wallâ€"it’s nice to know that our case is not unioue. Despite the feelings of down- right frustration that hit at timesâ€"they suffer the same thing in and around Montreal. Small consola- tionâ€"_â€"â€"but misery does love company! You know what they sometimes feel like in N.D.G.? The minor sports directors that is â€" munici- cipal baby-sitters! Anybody in or around Richmond Hill ever felt that way? You know what he was doing? He was playing our song! Down in the wilds of Lower Canada they have the same problems that we have with minor sport. He griped about the poor attendance at games, how hard it was to get coaches for kids’ teams. how tough it was to get people to coach or referee. Sound familâ€" iar to anybody? The longer he talked the harder it was not to smile broadly or, at times, to even hold back a really hearty chuckle. As he went on with his tale he noticed that despite our efforts a grin kept sneaking through. He finally demanded just what the (cen- sored) was going on! Just recenth we met a fellow who was in our ‘fair town from Montreal. He hails from N.D.G. or, to be more accurate, Notre Dame de Grace. That’s an awful mouthful to spit out at one time! This gentleman is an ardent worker in the minor sports set-up in his part of the world. After listening to him talk for a few minutes we could have sworn that he reallv lived in, or the area adjacent to, Rich- mond Hill. His story sounded just like home. a word of truth in the rumour that he once chased and caught up to a rabbit from deep centre field to the blate. The real truth of the story is that he PASSED the rabbit. If you don’t believe it he can produce the foot of the rabbit as conclusive proof! v- .- ..~ 0,...

It is the efforts of these ‘people and their predecessors from past seasons. that have helped make the Richmond Hill Curling Club the success it is today.
