10 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, Aug. 31, 1967 understand the problems coaches. face. “He’s just trying to do a job and if he doesn't get encouragement what does he get? Not money. He might decide to forget about it, let the critical parents try their luck.” But this is not the reason Sil is retiring: “I’ve been very fortunate”, he said, “I’ve en- joyed working with the youngsters and their par- ents. But I feel it’s time I spent more time with my family, concentrated to a greater extent on my job (he’s an insurance investigator) and so on. Give someone else a chance.” “I’ve found that the majority of parents are fine but there are still too many who take things too seriously, much more seriously than the kids. It’s the parents who give the trouble.” Sil explained that he personally has had little trouble as a coach but noted that some other coach- es have been treated as “whipping boys” by some parents. “These 'people don’t realize the hours a coach gives up for these kids. time in work, health and unfortunately in abuse from inconsiderate parents. All to help his kids.” Sil â€" who is the father of three. Val 12, Lauâ€" rie 10, and Christopher 2, and wife Vivian â€" has been a big winner with the teams he’s coached in both minor ball and hockey. Val has played under his father for the past few years in softball and hockey. In hockey it was with the Wilson-Niblett Stingray Novices for two years and now the Rey- nolds Shoe King Peewees; in hockey one year as assistant coach with Ray Brooks of the CFGM Couritry Gentlemen, and the past two years as head coac . Which brougnt us around to parents, the im- mature types who all too often want to see the ful- filment of their own blunted egos thrust upon their children. , PLAYED WITH DYNES And. of course. Sil has been well-known as a ballplayer in The Hill and with the Dynes Jewellers since about 1956. Up until he retired after the 1966 season (he also sat out 1965) Sil was the last of the original Dynesmen. He figures the best team he played for was the 1963 Intermediate team which won the Ontario championship behind Ray Judd. Si] (who estimates he spends $500 a year him- self to coach ball and hockey in gas. time off his job, clothing. etc.) would like to see more parents understand the problems coaches. face. “He's just trying to do a job and if he doesn’t get encouragement what does he get? Not money. “I played every position but pitch”, he said, “and catching Judd was the easiest thing I’ve done. You just held your glove up and he put it there. He had a good rise ball which could come up any- where from four inches to two feet.‘ “In my opinion we’ve never seen Judd throw hard as he was capable of doing. He was the type of pitcher who only threw hard enough to win.” v While Sil is fetiring‘ from the coaching ranks there’s a chance he may be back, a good chance by the name of Christopher. He’s only two now and when he gets to the ball playing age, well. who knows, Sil might come out of retirement again. HARD-HITTING FOOTBALL Was quite impressed by the Suburba Knights- Weston game Saturday at St. Andrew’s College. Phew. Hard-hitting. A fair crowd turned out but it should get better if this type of action goes on all the time. Don’t be fooled by the lop-sided score. It was interesting to watch all the way and would advise you to drop around Labor Day to take a look for yourself. These juniors are out there to win. A lot of them would just love to play professional some day and jhey play it hard right now. Thlllk_Clll'tiS and cor‘npany will surprise a few teams before the season is too much further along. . . .

Arena President Elgin Barrow infonns us that the arena-powers-that-be are on the lookout for anyone interested in supplying a timer’s clock for the new arena. The firm supplying the clock would be able to display his advertising call-letters, etc. Elgin re- ports that a. couple of offers have been received from out-of-town businesses but the executive feels a local business should get first chance.

HOW TO MAKE AN IMPRESSION ‘ Richmond Hill Dynes Jewell- ers clinched first place in the Fairbanks Major Fastball Lea- gue last week for the second straight year with two more wins. Jewellers' hurler Brent Sel- vage came up with two fine efforts going all the way in both games. On Monday it was 4-1 over Male Shop and on Thursday 6-2 over Harmony Caterers. Thursday's game saw Rich- mond Hill jump into a two-run lead in the first inning as Catcher George Dickie tripled with two men out and Les Downing carried him home with a home run shot. That ended the scoring until the seventh inning when the Dynesmen waved four more runs across the plate on three hits. Dickie flew out but up came Downing and he zinged another long homerun, this second of the day. The Caterers attempted to stage a rally in the ninth and managed two runs before Sel- vage shut the door. Keith Warling opened with a single but was eliminated on an atâ€" tempted steal. Ken Goddard followed with a single and ad- vanced to third on a throwing error by Selvage on a ground ball by Frank Johnson. Johnson ended up on second base. Both runners came in a single by Jack Benedict af-ter ‘-c‘ Domik faced 24 men in the seven-inning game and struck out half of them while allowing four hits. J & M comprising some of the members of the former Richmond Hill Tom Hughes fastball team in- cluding Pitcher Reg Martin committed four errors to practically hand the game away on a platter. Dynes opened the game with Les Downing getting a life as the pitcher Martin threw wild to first base on a routine grounder. Downing stole third prior to a walk to Domik. Red Wilson started it off with a walk, went to second on a single by Bucky Buchanan. Both came home as “Skip” De- Geer â€" pinch-hitting for Gary Smith -â€" whacked a home run. Dickie flew out but up came Downing and he zinged another long homerun, his second of the day. Both runners came in a single by Jack Benedict af-ter John McDonald Ihad flied out. Monday‘s game saw Selvage spinning a neat three-hitter and striking out six men. Dynes managed to come through with nine hits. Dynes opened the scor- ing in the top of the third as Dave Day walked, George Dickie singled and both came home on Down- ing‘s double. Selvage then grounded out. Wilson struck out, but Billy Hun- ter tripled to score Down- ing.

The Rangers were held to a scoreless draw until ten min- utes after half-time when inside left Dave Andrews opened the scoring with a well placed shot. Richmond Hill settled down after this to play a smooth game. Dave Andrews and John Walti on the left wing teamed up to score three more goals beâ€" tween them.
