VOL. 88, N0. 26. By Fred Simpson (ll Both have decided to abandon the skates this season. Haynes, in particular, is a big loss. He was a two-way, hard-hitting fellow who was much in de- mand by a number of area teams. He might make a comeback at age 26 later in the season but it. prob- ably Won’t be with Richmond Hill. Filling the two vacancies on defence are new- comers Arnold Roberts and Ed Burford. Roberts is a rugged type from Thornhill and adds enough muscle to the backline but report has it he draws his share of penalties under the more genteel Olym- pic hockey rules in force in the league. Burford is just out of Junior B ranks. (Continued on Page 10) Some of the difficulty this year has been the late starting time of 9 pm. This means the stop- time games aren‘t completed until around 11 pm and that’s pretty late if you’re a commuter and have to rise with your neighbor's barkingr dog the next morning. A u The club itself has an impressive lineup of hoc- key talent rig‘ht from goaltender Doug Finney out. Finney, who was the top goalie in the newly- named York-Simcoe Hockey Association in 1964â€"65, is off to a slow start this season. But part of the blame can be placed on his de- fence which is the weakest â€" although not that weak -- portion of this year’s team. You have to be weaker when you lose two de- fencemen the calibre of Pat Merruw and Don Haynes. Both have decided to abandon the skates this season. Havnes. in particular. is a big: loss.

Mangotich proved to be the better man winning two out of the three-fall match and the $300 prize money before a sizeable audience after wrestling his way through opponents in the challenge rounds. The championship match as well as all the other matches featured clean holds and were noticeable for the lack of villains. The matches are promoted by Sportacular and emphasize the more‘scientific aspects of the game. The opening show also included demonstrations of karate and judo.

MIDGETS Strict adherence to Coach Bill Points’ advice to hold their tempers, take the rough play being handed out by Camp Bor- den, and concentrate on passing and playing good hockey, paid dividends for Richmond Hill Legion Midgets on Friday in Camp Borden. They handed a rough, hard bumping Camp Borden team a 10-1 defeat. The boys are deserving of great com- mendation for following their coach’s instructions and avoid- ing retaliatory action. Man- ager Marsh Amos commented, “Camp Borden won the war, but we won the game." Fifteen seconds after the op- eningr whistle, Bill Huke car- ried the puck up the ice and dumped it into the net behind a surprised goaltender. Roy Mc- Brien added another tally on a pass from Ricky Doucette Wayne O’Brien and Harvey Got don teamed up on another am Harvev Gordon connected for a] Harvey Gordon connected for unassisted goal.
