Everyone went around all day with sore ï¬ngers; they had to as youngest daughter was pricking fingers for blood samples to examine under the microscope. Christmas certainly has changed with the passage of time! And yet there is one bright side to this kind of toyless Christmas. Santa Claus didn’t leave any doll houses, gas stations, barns or whatever made of metal. You know the kind where everything is put together with small metal tabs and yards of instruction sheets. The kind of thing that old Santa Claus leaves for Mom and Dad to assemble in the wee. small hours of Christmas morning. And then with bloodshot eyes, bloody hands and a throbbing headache they totter off to bed for their two hour ration of sleep ere the panic begins. They have one big satisfaction. The gas station â€" doll house â€"â€" In our house, as in a million other houses scat- tered here and there, Christmas morning was its usual scene of gray and wild confusion. It wasn’t quite as abandoned as it once was because daughter number one and number one son have got to the age where clothes are the only acceptable gifts. That only leaves youngest daughter who takes any interest in toys and her tastes run to chemistry sets and microscopes. No electric trains to play with and no ï¬re engines to go rocketing around with. Time plays dirty tricks on fathers -â€"â€" what’s Christmas Day without something mechanical to tinker with? Time, like newspaper editors, has a quaint way of never standing still â€" it’s a sort of an occupational hazard. Now that Christmas 1963 is out of the way -the New Year is coming on like an express train. There's just no stopping it; it’s in- evitable. ' RICHMOND HILL BY RON CRAINE R. B. COX MGR.

The Cleaners won the "B" division championship of the tournament and then swept on to win the grand championship by defeat- ing the “A†group winners, Detroit Teamsters. Group- ings at these tournaments are determined by popula- tion figures of participa- ting communities and the Cleaner win over the De- troit team is akin to the story of David and Gol- iath. The Teamster club is made up of boys from all parts of the Detroit area and over 100 boys were tested before the final team was picked. To add even more to the Cleaner escutcheon of honour is‘ the fact that the Teamster cluhl had gone undefeated in 48 straight games both in Can-; ada and in their OWn age' grouping in the United States: BY RON CRAINE For quite some time people close to minor hockey doings in the Richmond Hill area have suspected that the local product was as good as could be found anywhere. It is one sort of thing to suspect that something is true but definitely a horse of a different colour when it comes to proving it. Fourteen bantam aged hockey players from Richmond Hill, their two coaches and their sponsor went a long way toward confirming the theories about local minor hockey last weekend. Lake Simcoe is still open ex- cept for shallow bays which have from two to five inches of ice. Small lakes in the north end of the district are frozen over but ice conditions are not considered safe for usage.
