Octoberfi4flx, 1963 ~ President Jim Mansbridge, the entire execut- ive and every coach, umpire and assistant coach deserve a lot of praise for a job well done.

'I‘WO CHAMPIONSHIPS IN ONE SEASON - The fickle finger of fate beckoned and decreed that we would be in Galt the night that Dynes J ewel- 'lers won the Metro Major Fastball League champ- ionship. We got back to the old homestead on Fri- day afternoon and the first person that our tired old eyes lighted upon was Vern Dynes. Just by looking at him we might have known his .team had won. He had that happy look. An O.A.S.A. title and the 1Metro Major title in one season are enough to make any sponsor slightly delirious! .-..SPORT SPOTS... Congratulations and well wishes have been showered down upon Mr.. Dynes and on his softball team. We’d like to add our congratulations to the rest of them. This has been the best year yet for softball in Richmond Hill. From comparitively hum- ble'beginnings the game has become a big part of the life of the town. We hope that succeeding years will only add to the growth of the sport and that many, many more championships will (3qu into Richmond Hill.

Gary Smith followed and was also passed. With two men on, Sil Steffan hit a sizzler toward Dick Moulton. the G&A first sacker. Moulton made the pick- up and attempted to pick Smith off at second. Smith was forced but managed to upset the throw to the plate to allow De Geer to score the winning run. Neb Gayman and Moe Wil- liamson each had two hits for the Jewellers. Ross Golden. on the mound for G&A. pitched well but was tagged for 10 hits while striking out seven. Ray Judd had 22 strikeouts and gave up three hits in the 10-inning game.

No matter how many games the senior team wins they always play good, solid ball. Their attitude toward the game should be cop~ ied by their junior brethren. Last. Thursday's “Powder Puff” game left the United Appeal coffers $171.00 hea- vier. The girls were torm- ed into two teams. the Unit- ed; and the Appeals.

With no plumbing of any kind, no heat and large airy cracks for the wind to howl through. the old quarters were far from being even adequate. The new dressing rooms are warm. well lit, contain toil- ets. wash basins. showers and benches, and an abundant supply of hot water. Visiting teams are going to appre- ciate the vast improvement just as much as the Indians. Stewart House won the intra- mural football championship by defeating Harrison House 12-0. Miles defeated Richmond 2-0 and Harrison took Stewart to camp 4-1 as the intramural soc- cer program got off to a flying start. The badminton club also started operating under the guidance of Mrs. Dolores Hill. Girls' volleyball teams have been playing exhibition games in preparation for the upcoming season.
