The Rams got off on the right foot at 9:44 of the first period on a nice play engin- eered by Gary Methe. De- fenceman Methe carried the puck over his own blueline. shot a long pass to Rod Chapman who 5 c o o t e d around the defence and lift- ed a high drive which caught the corner behind Brian Davidson. The lead lasted until 15:41 when Gord Combs put the puck behind Bob Stoddart in a scramble around the net to tie the game at 1â€"1. at2pm Lindsay took a 2â€"1 lead at 8:09 of the second period in another scrambl‘e as the same Mr. Combs shoved the disk home. RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, FEBRUE Blue. Lie. J5833 BRADFORD: A new - born Guernsey calf at Jamaica Farms on the edge of Holland Marsh weighed in at 141 pounds recently. This is about double the weight of a normal calf at birth. The farm, located off Highway 11 near the Federal Farms, is owned by C, L. Gundy. Many members of the ‘herd have won national and in- iternational awards. Richmond Hill fought back to tie the game at 2-2 at the $1595 $1195 $497 fit (a 'zg'fi‘f By Fred Simpson Sport Spots 3:22 mark of the final period. Spence Natale was the man to get his stick on the puck and drive it home following a melee around the net. But just a little over a minute later at 4:40 Lindsay popped back into the lead to stay courtesy of Jim Grills. Hard luck Bruce Maison, playing his first game after being out two weeks, was put back on the shelf again when he twisted the same left knee all over again. Larry Watson also had a number of scoring chances pass him by for the locals. The Rams received a stand-out effort in goal by Stoddart with John Bookaâ€" lam being the pick on the forward line with a fine two- way skating effort. To quote the speaker: “I want my 12 year old fellow to develop physically and to acquire skills that will stay with him for his lifetime. I want him to have the opportunity to react to others and to get others’ reactions to himself. “I want him to learn how to co-operate with others in team effort. Sure. I want him to play hockey and baseball and maybe tennis and golf as well as anything else he finds interesting and challenging: But I hope he has an opportunity to whet his creative appetite and by this I mean both activities in the way of creative hand work and applied imagination using a creative mind." Organization. That’s the word. Children must be directed into pre-ordained paths from the moment they plop from the crib until they toss away the cane in outbursts of defiance and eventually succumb to the vagaries of old age. Attended a recreation conference in Aurora the other day which brought a few thoughts into focus. A few thoughts, that is, I hadn’t thought of for a few years. It boiled down to the question of whether people were being creatively entertained in this age of leisure where society’s role is (apparently) to plan your waking moments until you fall fitfully to sleep at night. They came to me as I listened to the various people give out their invited Viewpoints as to what was wrong with the local (Aurora) recreation com- mittee. And of course there were a number of things that were wrong with it. a number of things that weren’t, and a number of other things that could be done to improve upon it. Is this the role of recreation committees? I don’t think so. The part of such a committee is the role of a municipal body that provides this and that for a major segment of the populace. Of course not everyone’s covered. Of course people are left out: There’s no bridge club, there’s no archery club, there’s no cricket club, or there’s no tiddly winks club. And of course there comes a time when you have to get on by yourself. Plan your own good time, plan your own hours of leisure, plan your own way of (lisnosingr of those terrible '24 hours of day of your ONE lifetime. ' In other words. recreation is another form of recreation. A body meant to provide a minimum of entertainment fpr your children, perhaps for your- self. It's not the magic key to carry you through life. The real recreation comes with the realization of every day living which basically involves getting along your own way, of having fun by creating your own fun. by just being children who like to play guns. hide and seek, kick the can, cowboys and Indians, and all that. In other words. Don’t organize everybody to death. Leave the children (basically) alone and let them be. Have recreation. Sure. it’s wonderful. But let’s not worry about it as if it was the savior of those desolate days when you have to be all by yourself. ARY 8 Be I ndependent!
