_VOL. 87. NO Town 8. Country Team Wins 3 Games In A Row The powerful Town and Country juvenile hockey team won three games last week. Two of the wins were at the expense of Bolton, while Camp Borden also fell victim to the hockey wiles of the Fred Wise crew. VIOLENCE AND BRUTE FORCE ENCOURAGED The team visited Camp Bor- den on Monday of last week and came away with an 8-2 victory. Gary Charity and George Shepâ€" herd were the big guns with two goals each, while single- tons were registered by Dennis Connor, Ken Crook. Paul Jack- son and Doug Carter. Larry Patterson. Brian Wadsworth and Roger Ball were credited with assists. A sports director in London has levelled charges against the NHL type of play that aren't too easily refuted. It is his contention that the present style of hockey as played in the NHL encourages the use of violence and brute force while the day of the skilful skater and stickhandler is long gone. And if you think about it a little you’ve almost got to agree that he is right. Hockey is one of the greatest games in the worldâ€"when it is played as it should be played. Louse it up by providing a spectacle rather than a game and it becomes something other than good hockey. As the game is presently played in the NHL the idea is to dump the puck into your opponents’ end of the rink then swarm in after it. The days of the crisp, precision passing attack are a thing of the dear dim past except for the Russian national hockey team. They play the game like we once did. The NHL style of play seems to dominate the conduct of the game from the leagues for the tiniest tads right on up to the top. Tele- vision can probably take a great deal of the credit for that. Now every kid in the country can plainly see how it is done in the big time and then go out and do likewise. And they do just that whether it’s the right way or not! A case that might be comparable is the huge professional ice show. Costuming and lighting are designed to delight and dazzle the eye. Huge pro- duction numbers are designed to overawe and over- whelm the imagination. Skatingâ€"figure skatingâ€" is purely secondary. On a rough ice surface at Bol- ton Friday night the Town and Country team nipped Bolton by l 5-4 count. Shepherd scored two for the Town and Country crew as Bruce Sim. Jackson and Frank Pirri potted one each. Jack Dubkowski, Carter and Ball were active in the assist department. The London sports director levelled one further charge at the NHL. Play dominated by NHL rules policy is rife at all levels of the game and he went on to characterize Canadian hockey as “a little sick”. After the recent fiasco at international levels of competition it's easy to agree with him. (Continued on Page 10) Most of the members of the cast of these shows have spent years learning to be figure skaters. Once they join a show they learn to forget the right way and do things the spectacular way. Any figure skating buff will tell you that you’ll see more bad skating in a professional ice show than you’d care to contemplate. But, by gar! it is spectacular right or wrongll Could it be possible that NHL type hockey falls into the same categoryâ€"just another spectacular?

KINSMEN CLUBS LEAGUE ir'i‘his was the time chosen for the ladies’ schedule playoffs for the Brokinshire Trophy. All rinks eligible for the final week of play were of good competitive calibre. This was indicated by the very c105e scores which decided the win- ners in the majority of the gam- es. Richmond Hill Curling Club was the scene of some very ex- citing competitive curling this past week (January 19 to 22). Those present at the semi- finals witnessed the best curl- ing of the week, two hard- fought games won by rinks skipped by Edna Barker and Phyl Richards. The Phyl Richards group got away to a good start when they won the first two ends. The girls on Skip Barker's rink made a partial recovery and were successful in gaining on the score, only to lose their gain further on in play. Phyl then skipped her rink to a decisive victory (12â€"4) and the trophy. Ably assisting were Mina Smock, vice: Keitha Math- eson, second; and Diana Bak- er. lead. The final playoff took place on Friday afternoon before a number of interested and en- thusiastic spectators. The runners-up, who gave a‘ very good account of them-1 selves just couldn’t recover suf- ficiently. Their rink was Edna Barker, skip; Florie Sward, vice; Peg MacPherson, second; and Donna Stephenson, lead. They were awarded second prize. Several points of interest in this first schedule playoffs were noted. One was the successful entry into the semi-finals of a rink skipped by Marg Brock. This was her first attempt at skipping in schedule play. Second was the sportsman- like attitude of Edna Barker who, although taking a toss on the ice that injured her hand The exciting day was climax- ed with coffee and a special celebration cake shared by both rinks and committee mem- bers of the club. Refreshments were served by Social Chair- man Doris Vance. HILL HOCKEY ASSOCIATION Three Victories In A Week For Country Gentlemen Richmond Hill Town & Country Food Service ADMISSION 8:30 PM.
