The steel-tipped arrow-head is razor sharp “and will pass right through the animal unless it hits a bone. You can get accuracy and speed with an arrow for a distance of 40 yards Which means you have to get a lot closer, be very stealthy, when sneaking up on your prey. V “It’s much more fuin ahd spbrting; tHan carrying a telescopic rifle which will carry for about 200 \ KEPT COMING “He just kept right on coming. I didn’t have time to let go with another arrow. I just stood there. The buck’s head dropped right at my feet. It was a pretty close call.” “The buck was only a few yards in front of me, coming on the dead run, when I stepped out from behind the bush and let the arrow fly. It got him. “We make. our own bows,” he said, “on a special machine we have. It takes about two weeks. My tournament bow is worth about $325.” He has won numerous tournaments over the years. But probably his most anxious moments occur- red one day while he and one of his sons were hunting deer. “My son was on top of a hill and there were about three deer. He shot and missed them and the three of them, led by the buck started straight in mv direction‘ I was hiding behind a clump of bushes. On the hunting trail Bill has shot all kinds of game including rabbits. deer, etc., and a bear. j It was the news that he shot a bear which madedmy left eye twitch uncontrollany for a long secon . You remember the long bow. They're the kind Robin Hood and his Merry Men used to shoot at the tyrannical King John. Of course. Bill has a number of more modern bows which he uses for tournament competition. Bill and his sdns 'have 25 different bows to their name including an old English Long Bow wh1ch are still in active use in England. One of these people is Bill Spearing of 262 Demaine Crescent in Richmond Hill and he's been doing it for about 18 to 20 years. Bill and his sons, Ken, 22, and Glenn, 14. are members of the York County Bowmen which comprises some 75 to 100 members and is growing all the time. “A terrific sport, just terrific,” Bill was attempt- ing to convince me the other day while I squirmed nervously. “It's the cleanest sport I can think of. It’s too bad more peoplevdon’t do it.” Personally, I wouldn’t be caught dead hunting a squirrel with an elephant gun. Nor an elephant for that matter. Just too hazardous. But with a bow and arrow? Get lost. That’s even worse as far as I’m concerned but there are actually people who do it. VOL. 91, NO. 23 Thursday, Dec. 5th 7.30 PM.

Richmod Hill went ahead at 7:36 of the second per- iod when Brad Campbell slap- ped one home from the point on a pass from Sackfield. ‘ In a desperate attempt to knot the count, Barrie lift- ed its netminder in the dying minutes of the game. Jimmy Clement shot the puck into the empty net assisted by Kevin McKeage, to make the final count 3-1 for the Lions, who out- shot Barrie 17-6. This game was not nearly as ‘rough as the previous encoun- ter of the two teams. Weston 3. Lions 2 Sunday the Lions took on the Weston Dodgers at 9 am and lost 3-2 in a really good display of hockey. The local Llads outplayed their opponents iby a country mile. but the breaks weren't with them. ' Weston was ahead 2-0 at the start of the second period. finicky Sackfield helped by I Clement and Cronkwright scor- ed in the second and the Lions I tied it up when Donny McPhee .sank a pass from Jim Graham ‘iand Eric Kivimaki.

The Rinky-Dinks then went ahead towards the end of the second period and scored an- other goal in the third stanza. The Lions appeared a bit disorganized but put up a good fight. A return game is planned in about three weeks. Lions 3, Barrie 1 Friday, in their seventh lea- gue game, the Lions defeated Barrie 3-1 as they turned in their best game to date. It was a very exciting and tense con- test. Coming up: the CFGM Novices travel to Orillia Satur- day and host Clairlea at 5:30 in the old arena Sunday. PEEWEES Rinky-Dinks 3, Lions 1 The Rinky-Dinks are all selected from triple “A” teams playing in/ the Metro Minor Atoms League.

CFGM 6, Clairlea 1 Sunday CFGM hosted the Clairlea Minor Atoms from Scarboro and handed them a 6-1 defeat. Young Gary Dunbar was in goal for two periods and regular Goalie Doug Hughes tended the net for the other period. Goal getters were Bobby Golding from Gordon Forbes, Glen Tatum unassisted.

Barrie 3, CFGM 2 Although they were on the losing end of the Friday night contest with Barrie, CFGM played a much better game than in their last meeting with Barrie.

The at visitors were a heavier team 3F‘ but did not possess the ability PIC to capitalize on their man-~adâ€" 1â€",: vantage situations. Richmond Ad Hill again served more than { their share of penalties as the am bantams killed off their seven misdemeanors successfully. In the first period, the Cleaners overpowered their opponents from Metro and scored at 9:42. Mike Ball very capably walked in and drew the goalie out, sliding in a pretty one, as- sisted by Dennis Acomb, who organized things and forwarded the puck to Steve Cronkwright, his pointman. In the second period, the Cleaners only checked and skated with their opponents.‘ The coasting North Enders al-I D a 3 .v D o D g. 5‘. 2.!

However hard our bantams tried, the third period did not alter the results. The Cleaners used all their men while short handed but did not use the same team play at full strength. The game ended in a l-all tie. JUVENILES Hughes 3. Georgetown 2 Last Sunday Tom Hughes Shell Juveniles hosted George- town in an exhibition contest The forward lines put forth an extra effort, held Barrie off and scored while shorthand- ed as Mabley made amends and skated from the penalty box. took a pass from Cronkwright (his reliefer) and hit the tar- get. Mabley returned to the sin bin at 11:31 to make it hard for the Cleaners to hold Barrie to a shutout. Goalie Louis Moore held the locals in the game on more than one occasion and deserves the credit. Cleaners 1, North Etobicoke 1 In the second Steve Brown was in the right place and de- flected one of John Caven’s hard ones from the point into the net at 8:35. The Cleaners made it 2-0 at 11:58 when Steve Gordon aided by Rick Bolingâ€" broke and Brown netted the puck. At 14:06 Greg Binkley received an elbowing penalty as the Hillers were not skating and turned to illegal tactics. In the third Bolingbroke chiseled again for the Cleaners. receiving a boarding penalty at 1:45. The North Enders received another before the first penalty expireé, John Caven getting the nod for a high stick at 4:20. Before he returned to the ice Scott Mabley joined him in the penalty box for a trip at 7:07, making the Hill two men short again. It was not the Cleaners’ best performance as conditioning is still below what is expected and desired. Cleaners 3. Barrie 0 Friday the North End Clean- ers Bantams hosted Barrie in the return game of a home and home series. As usual Rich- mond Hill got serious when the chips were down. However. the Cleaners didn‘t use all their ability and were penalized for several rule infractions. ‘I‘om Sanlon received a penalty for high sticking and Chuck Lunau got one for a trip. These penal- ties put the Cleaners at a dis- advantage for six minutes of the first 15. 7.

In the third period Dunkley scored again, for his hat trick. assisted by Rice and Bailie. With only about two minutes to go Scarboro scored from a pile- up in front of the Hill net, spoiling BoboClement’sv shutout. The "Hillers had some anxious moments when two defencemen, Allan Graham and Paul Bailie had penal- ties at the same time, but the other boys came through and held the op- position off. Dave Dunkley, now has scor- ed seven goals in the last three games. To get ready for the Tiger Town Christmas Tournament at Dundas, the Surf Mariners will be playing two games next Sunday.

Surf Marine 4,» Scarboro Lions 1 Sunday they were hosts at the local arena to the Scarboro Lions. The boys were up for this one as it was felt it would be the toughtest contest yet.

Then Hipkiss scored assisted by Cutler.
