Forget about it. We have ice time available," said arena manager Bill Mabbett in a somewhat philosophical vein, "but not for the prime times of Saturday and Sunday. Everyone wants that time." Mabbett is in the process these chill days of September of tuning up various equipment in preparation for a long and, as per usual. busy winter. The season will get underway about. the 12th or 13th of October when the ice is laid and will be seldom empty of skaters for the following four months. But it‘s now that Mabbett finds himself as the “manâ€"in-the middle“ with requests for ice time coming in. “Of course." he said. "most of our ice time is retained from year to year by regular groups such as Minor Hockey. the Richmond Hill Hockey League, and the local figure skating club." The minor league will do its puck chasing Saturday and Sunday afternoons as well as during the week. "We've been forced to make more time {or the kids." said Mabbett. "because of the increase in registrations this year." This will specifically affect the Richmond Hill Hockey League which will be required to start one hour later at 9 pm on Tuesday nights this season. “The extra hour will be made available for the minor hockey teams." said Mabbett. “The Richmond Hill Hockey League will still get the same amount of time. 1964 Rambler 330 The skating club will be using the ice on Saturday mornings and hockey clubs Will have it for practice sessions Sunday mornings. Public school skating will agaln be held Tuesdays from 4 to 5.30 pm. “0111'. public skating night will continue to he held Saturday nights from 8 to 10," noted Mabbett. “but this year the price of admission will be 50 cents. “We're also going to continue adult public skating Sunday nights even though we didn’t have as good a response from the people last year that we expected." he said. however.” The lighting system over the ice has been improved over twice that of previous years by the installation of flumeric lights. “This systemr combines fluorescent and mercury vapor lights." explained Mabbett, "and cost about $2000. The old lights were strictly of the incandescent tlon. variety." The hockey players’ benches have also been enlarged. Manager Mabbett and his assistant. George Deciantis, are presently getting things in ship-shape for the big rush to start. It won't be long. Just step outside.

The loop was formerly called The Richmond Hill i Senior Hockey League. League officials aren’t exactly happy this year 1 at the prospect of being put back to 9 pm at the i Richmond Hill arena for their games Tuesday { nights but crowded conditions make it a necessity. By FRED SIMPsoN Manager Del Madeley was standing in; th. sun and rain (it was that kind of day, honest) saying he expected his football Richmond Hill Indians to run‘ into some tough opposition this year in the Metropolitan Toronto Football Union. The scene was Richmond Hill Town Park, the day Saturday last. and the time a few seconds after his league champion Indians had subdued the prev- iously undefeated Northwestern Ghosts by 21-1. “This was the team we wanted to get by,” quoth Madeley. And don’t be fooled by the score. The: game was a hard-fought one all the way with the Ghosts’ line sometimes pushing the Indians away back in their own end. It was a series of atrocious fumb- bumbling' that killed the Ghosts. “Our offensive line," continued Madeley, “was still having some trouble getting going. Of course-” he said. “some of the guys haven’t got used to each other out there.” “Ian is a good roll-out man and passes well. par- ticularly on the short ones. He also had a trial with the Argonauts in 1961 so he’s pretty good.” Sub- stitute quarterback this season will be Bill Durm who also plays safetyman on defence. Other absentees this season include Keith Cork- ill at flanker (he’s off to Europe); lineman Ron Burns with East York; and Terry Hemming who will be casting his lot with the Oakville Black Knights. Newcomers include ends Bob Booth and Ray Kyte of Richmond Hill; Clarence Campbell, a defens- ive back from Toronto, who tried out with the Cont- inental League Rifles; and Reg Folk, originally of Saskatoon Juniors, who now lives in Richmond Hill. He’s an offensive backfielder. The Indians, under the now fulltime quarter- backing‘ of Ian McIntosh, have reeled off four straight wins this season in defence of the Lord Sel-kirk Cup they grabbed in 1964. But missing from the offense this year is stand- out quarterback of ‘64, Al Fleming, who had to bow out because he has ballooned to 205 pounds. A league ruling limits playing weight to 160 pounds. “Al was a terrific ‘pasvser oiit there,” éaid Mad- eley. “and you’re bound to be hurt for the first few games until your neyv r_nan_ can get the boys going.” Other additional blbod comes in the forms of Carmen Foti, defensive lineman: Rod Leonard and Dennis Wyatt. both defensive linebackers. McIntosh was the backup man for Fleming last season and has led the Indians to 15-13, 14-7, 21-0, and 21-1 wins over Etobicoke Roughriders, East York Lions, High Park Bombers, and Northwestern. ...D --_ .V As a result. the Tuesday doubleheaders will give way to single games with regulation time. The loop is hoping to get some good teams preceeding its games to attract the crowd which in previous years has been sparse. Ticket draws are planned as fan-bait. Officials of the Richmond Hill Hockey Associa- tion were busy, busy Saturday as registration opened at the local arena for this year’s minor hockey sea- Returning reliables are Levi Snook, hard-driving fullback, who has already snared four touchdowns this year; Charles Dunn, middle linebacker who is also playing-coach: Fred Parsons, middle guard; and speedy Bob Sheridan who is about the surest-catch- ing end in the league as well as ’ghe fastest. “He also had 3 tryout with the Argos organiza- tion two years ago,” said Madeley, “but decided to forego the chance. He hasn’t really broken out this year.” Offensive linemen also include Norm Sut- cliffe and Al Sanders-on. Other returnees: Jim Burns and Fred Hend- erson, offensive guards from Richmond Hill; Ralph Mercury and Bill Tackaberry, defensive backfield- ers; and Gary Sokol and'AI Leslie, defensive engs. ;their performance Saturday the Indians appear to be coming and this can only mean bad news for the rest of the league. So hopes Mr. Madeley, anyway. > President Stu Gill reports “over 500 boys regis- tering which was a little heavier than last year.” The saturation number is 825 with the overflow put on the waiting list. Registration day will be re- peated this Saturday with fustest come, fustest son. éerved. Two staff members, Russell Cripps and James Irving, viewed last week’s Argo-Hamilton game at the ONE. Capsule comment: “Agggggggggh!” It would seem fans are being attracted to the Argo games much the way people are attfacted to bull fights. Lots of blood, Argo blood. Sport Spot: Final Note After they defeated Oshawa last week they were not sched- uled to play in OASA competi- tion again until a winner had been decided between Hamilton and St. Thomas. But that was LAST week. A few unexpected events have happened since then and Hughes find themsel- ves playing an extra series with HamiLton. Reno Is His Old Self What prompted the OASA to change their schedule was the departure of St. Thomas to Clearwater. Florida, to play in the World Tournament. They are not due to return till Sep- tember 28 and that would have meant scheduling two series be- fore the Thanksgiving week- end. OASA decided the obvi- ous solution was to schedule Hamilton and Hughes due to their geographic location. This was a tough decision for the local club as Pettenuzzo could use all the rest he can get. Hughes Win Beach Title, Lead Hamilton In OASA The second game in the Dr. Brake series is slated for Ham- ilton Wednesday, with the third game, if necessary, Saturday. As of this date we do not know Hughes’ next home date, but a call to Tom Hughes Station, 884-3502, Friday or Saturday, will provide this information. Hughes scored two runs in the first inning and Petten-uzzo proved the master, defeating Randall Roy 2-0 at Kew Beach. Big Doug Wa-tt doubled to score both Staughton and Con- aeher, to give Hughes the win. Ron Kl‘azer was the big gun for the local team as he hit safely twice and was robbed of a third. Pettenuzzo struck out 17, giving up five hits while earn- ing his 18th Beach Victory. Los- ‘ing pitcher, Frankie Marshall, allowed four hits and walked 51x. .

On Saturday night at the town park they de- feated Hamilton’s Dr. Brake in the Senior “A” Southern Ontario semi~finals and on Monday evening knocked off Randall Roy Metals to clinch first place in the Beaches League. This was a real big win for Hughes as winning this league was one of the goals high up on their 1965 list. Peter Con-acher was officially named as the 1965 batting champion, finishing up with an amazing .467 average. Pete al- so led the league in home runs with seven, and runs batted in ‘mth 27.

The outcome of the game font- 1unanter was not affected by the‘ weather. Pettenuzzo was magnificent in llhis game, as he allowed one hit, struck owt 18 batters and walbed only one Hamilton play- er. Realizing the danger of fly balls to the outfield, Reno al- lowed only one ball to be hit out of the infield. These two evenly matched teams battled to a scoreless tie until the seventh inning when Hughes scored their first run. Klazer walked and was thrown out when an attempted hit and run play went sour.

Pettenuzzo walked to load the bases and Bruce Staughton hit a high bouncing ball the pitcher de- flected, and before the short- stop could field it all hands were safe. ' In the eighth inning Dick Moulton hit a home run over the left field fence. The Ham- ilton fielder did not make a move on the ball as it was lost in the fog. Dr. Brake‘s pitching was shared by Jack Duff and Roy Laufman. They combined to strike out seven and walk two. while surrendering five hits. Sklp DeGeer led Hughes with two hits, while Reid, Moulton and Staughton shared the others. Pettenuzzo lost his bid for a no-hitter when Pitcher Duff‘s single in the fifth barely drop- ped between the infield and outfield.
