The money from registration falls far short of paying for the total costs of the league- In fact it’s just a little less than half. League executives are faced every year with the problem of financmg and, somehow, they come through every year. The biggest source of revenue is from the Sports Day Parade which will be held this year on June 13th. All proceeds from this special day have gone to fur- ther the cause of minor ball since its inception and have done much to keep the wolf from the door. As things stand at the present time, 17 more coaches are required for various teams in the league. The four teams of girls all have coaches but the boys have not fared as well. Three coaches are needed in the 8-9 year-old group, one in the MacKillop area, one for McConaghy and a coach for Our Lady of Fatima. Five coaches are required for 12-14-year-olds in the Beverley Acres, Crosby, Walter Scott, MacKillop and Pleasantville areas. Six coaches from all areas are a must in the 10-11-year-old grouping, while three strong men are needed to handle the 15-18-year olds.

You’ll have the time of your life and be tied up in a really worthwhile endeavour with some wonderful people. â€" SPORT SPOTS â€" In the last issue of “The Liberal” we were taken to task by Mr. Frank Murphy for the stand taken on the action of Coach Earl Methe of the Sing Alongs Hockey Team. Mr. Methe stopped the game with eight minutes left in regulation time as he felt his players were tired to the point of exhaustion. The team had played two previous games during the day and yes, they were only eleven years old for the most part. And we still think that the coach did the right thing. Three games in one day sounds just a bit rugged but â€" these are not regulation length games. They usually last forty minutes by the clock. Time is not stopped when the whistle blows and the clock just keeps ticking away. So what three games adds up to is something less than three hours. At eleven years of age most of us have taken part in Saturday morning hockey games that lasted some- times five and six hours. Most of us couldn’t skate too well, didn’t have proper equipment and just bash- ed along until we were too tired to stand or darkness brought an end. Bet that you did the same thing too, Frank. . As for all-star hockey teams â€" why not? Com- petition is good for everyone and, whether we like it or not, we’re in competition from the day we’re born. We compete with brother and sister for parental afl’ection. At school the bright student gets into an accelerated class and later on competes for scholar- ships. School teams are chosen on the basis of the best players available â€" the rest just don’t get to play at all. So what’s different about the R.H.H.A.? _ A big difference. Admittedly every boy pays a re- gistration fee to play hockey, and play hockey he does. The better players rise to the top and get to make an all-star team, or rather, a town team. But the rest still go on playing hockey in the house league. . When a player plays on a team like the Sing Alongs his parents start to run into extra expense. Trans- portation has to be supplied, meals bought and ad- niiSSion paid to various arenas. They aren’t exactly free. loading on anybody. Fifty nine games is a lot of hockey for an 11 year oldboy but some of them, in fact most of them, thrive on it. The odd boy is affected either mentally, phySically or spiritually by the long haul. Parents should be the best judges of their boy’s condition and if he is suffering, get him out of highly competitive hockey and back to a house league team. It’s a parent’s prerogative and duty. And they’ll never ever get “burnt out” in the R.H.H.A. No player is signed to an ironclad contract or asked to leave home to play for another team. No one forces him to play. He is given the opportunity of a trial and if he makes the team is eligible to play â€" but only as long as he or his parents want him to play! There just isn’t any such thing as coercion. Every coach we know in the R.H.H.A. is vitally concerned with the welfare of his players. They like kids (and most of them have families of their own) and they like hockey in just that order. Every one of them likes to win but most of them know what it is to lose and they’ve taught their young charges to lose gracefully. We hope that the R.H.H.A. operates for many years and their tenets and policies are always as sound as they are right now. And they’re definitely not raising a crop of professional hockey players by intent or des1gn. If some boy learns enough hockey to go all the way to the N .H.L. more power to him. It takes a boy and his parents to decide to accept an offer from an N.H.L.. hockey club. At this time the R.H.H.A. has no_ affiliation with any NHL team nor wants any such t1e~up with the professional organizations. Boys Will play hockey in Richmond Hill for years to come. Some Wlll play a little better than others and want better competition. Some of the better players Will be able to stand the faster pace and some will fall by the_way side. But nobody will ever push them into anything that they and their parents don’t feel is good for them. In our humble opinion executives, coaches and interested parents in the R.H.H.A. are domg a pretty darn good job. {REGAL AUTO BODY 319 Enford Road (00' Industrial Road) . .. - RICHMOND Hll.l._ \‘l-IRN nool.i-:\’. no.5; Complete Collision - a .

Provincial Parks Ready For Season With the holiday season rapid- ly approaching, parks staff in the Lake Simcoe District have been busily engaged in making preparations for another active season. Recognizing the ever increa- sing demand for camping facili- ties, camp grounds at Sibbald Point and Six Mile Parks have been extended during the past winter to provide additional areas. Camping sites are also available at BaSS Lake, Earl Rowe and Devils Glen Parks. A. D. Selwood, parks supervisor at Maple, stated that the num- ber of camp units now provided for campers convenience in the district, is in excess of 1,000 de- veloped sites. The two day-use parks, Springwater and Wasaga Beach are expected to continue in popularity for those wishing to take advantage of the excel- lent outdoor facilities provided. All parks except Wasaga Beach, were fully staffed and will be placed in operation on Friday, May 11th, with entrance and camping fees coming into effect. These fees remain the same as last year, with sea- sonal entrance permits of $3.00, allowing entry to all provincial parks for the entire season and daily entrance permits of 50c allowing entry to all provincial parks for the day they are valid. The provincial parks en- trance permits, also permits entry to the parks operated by the Ontario-St. Lawrence De- velopment Commission. Camp- ing fees are $1.00 per day with a maximum stay of 28 days allowed at any one park.

The committee after agreeing there was negligence on both sides recommended the muni- cipality pay $300.00 of the bill. The two police cruisers are owned by Wilson-Niblctt Motors and are rented by the town at a monthly rental fee. The April rent amounted to $282.62. Police Chief R.

( l VEGETABLE-PATCH ' PHILOSOPHY Almost every suburban home- owner with a biggish backyard and a home freezer has thought about growing his own vegetabâ€" les. Thoughts of baby carrots and butter-drenched corn-on- the-cob may have seduced him into buying the freezer in the first place. Eventually the gar- dener and the homemaker (not the same person, I hope) will have declared a truce and the vegetable patch produces deli- cacies not available at the mar- ket rather than gluts of toma- toes and string beans. (I know a husband who gallantly trund- les trunk-loads of garden truck to Muskoka; we appreciate it up there). Anyhow I order vegetable seeds with the freezer and the cottage neighbours in mind, picking corn and bean varieties that freeze, and a wealth of salad greens and late fall hardy vegetables. I don’t plant onions, celery or turnips, trusting that Holland Marsh will. Asparagus, a perennial of course, is a big- garden treat, though addicts with small gardens have been known to make hedges or foun- dation plantings of it. Once the garden has been turned over and manure or a balanced formula fertilizer wor- ked in, seeds of cool-weather vegetables can be planted early in May. Chief among these are peas, lettuce in variety, beets and carrots, onions and members of the cabbage family (if you plant seeds of these rather than set- ting out started plants). With freezer-ready peas av- ailable locally, I buy only en- ough seed to give us a few “feeds” in early July. Little 'Marvel does well in the row, while Alderman climbs all over the wire fence enclosing the garden. Sugar-pod peas, the pois-mange-tout of France or peultjes of Holland are a little known treat here. The pods are picked when tiny, topped and tailed and boiled for eating, pod and all, like tiny string beans. The shopper faced with ordin- ary ICEBERG LET'I‘U‘OE, can- not know the delights of the “home-grown” types. Three or four fifteen-cent packets of seed will provide enough for you and the rabbits, too. Bibb, Boston and Great Lakes all form ros- ettes and heads in cool weather, while Salad Bowl makes a love- ly yellow-green leaf salad. Add Escarolle for its bitter tang and a few leaves of spinach to pro- vide a dark contrast. SPINACH is another cool- spring crop; try America.

CABBAGE seed is cheap and prolific. I always plant too much and neglect to thin strictly en- ,ough. If I could grow only one cabbage it would be Savoy, that: crinkly, melt-in-your mouth‘ YOUR GARDEN And By Flavia Redelmeier appetite for broccoli. Non- poisonous Derris (Atox) dusted on the cabbages keeps the cater- pillars at bay, and one can al- ways discard the outer leaves. When the soil has warmed up towards the end of May, it is time to plant the vegetables of tropical American origin, beans, squashes, corn and tomatoes. KINGHORN WAX and TEN- DERLONG (green) BEANS make a very good frozen prod- uct, cut or “frenched” and blanched briefly before packing dry. Broad Windsor beans are an interesting European addition to our cuisine. making a hand- some hedgel-ike growth before being picked and shelled when green. Ask a continental friend how to cook this seasonal deli- cacy. They are reminiscent of limas with a nuttier flavour. We have gone all out for summer SQUASH this past year, growing both White Bush Scal- lop (the Pavtty-pavn squash) and Zucchini. These last, when picked young can be sliced skin and all and sizzled in butter or baked in a covered casserole. U Conn, Butternut and Table Queen (Acorn) are all winter- keeping yellow varieties. We always plant CUCUlM- BERS (Keith’s Hybrid this year) and MUSKMELONS (Super- market). About one year in three the melon crop is outstanding â€" something to do with the weather â€"â€" and that one good year is worth the barren years in our big garden. Dedicated horticulturists grow their own TOMATOES, from seed, but I buy plants from a greenhouse who recommends the new hyblrd kinds over old standards like Bonny Best and Beefsteak. CORN planted “when the oak leaf is as big as a squirrel’s ear," takes too much space for the small garden but it is so beauti- ful in its growth that I always plant it for us and the raccoons. I plant five varieties for a long season of eating, arranging it in blocks to allow cross-pollin- ation. With luck we eat or freeze most of the crop before the coons find the patch. We stack the ravaged stalks and the pheasants finish the job in the fall. I used to plant halfia-dozen kinds of HERBS, but since the upsurge in herb cookery I let the Cormacks or Spice Island do the work of harvesting and drying. I must have chives (perennials easily grown from seed) and basil for snipping over fresh sliced tomatoes. This year a new variety of basil, Dark Opal, promises a handsome col- our contrast in the vegetable rows. Finally, I tuck small-frulted gourd seeds in the headlands and waste corners, trusting them to spring up faster than the weeds and provide a uniform ground cover. Just before frost bushels of gourds are harvested and turned over to the numer- ous bazaars and sales, where they sell better than the pro- verbial hot cakes for harvest and winter decorations. Gardens reflect very personal experience, and a vegetable Eatenmatch says a great deal about the gardener‘s tastes and glutton- ies. How dull such a garden would be without these excur- ‘sions into the unusual and those ysmall preferences of taste. Do iexperiment, refine or discard as lexperience dictates.
