You just can’t keep up with the games now that the OASA playoffs are on the scene. Dynes managed a split in two games last week in the Oshawa and District Fastball League as they battled it out for first place honors with Oshawa Gales. The Jewellers downed The Gales 2-1 before a big crowd Thursday night at the town park. Then The Gales put the run to The Jewellers 2-0 the next night in Oshawa. So, I guess. they are still tied for first. son. We shall see. 51L v.1” .. . Also. Richmond Hill is busy battling it, out at the CNE Bullova Watch Tournament. Their first game was Tuesday and (if they won it) they‘ll be goimr tonight (Thursday) at the CNE. If they lost. lhen they’ll be at home in ‘rhe town park.

One Dave Barbour called to ask us to make note of the name of the person who won the television draw Monday night as sponsored by Brenan TV of the Richmond Hill Industrial Softball League. SWIMMING Finally. Marv Dumas, 11, of Richmond Hill won three first prize ribbons out of four events August 9 in swimming competitions at the town's Centennial Pool. One of his wins was for di\ing skill and form. The word has it that the children competitors turned out in force but not so the parents. As my in- formant states: “It was sad that so many parents didn't think it worthwhile to come and cheer their kids on.” Yes. 12 THE LIBERAL . . . Spar! spot: 9 o - This is the life that many people will lead from September until May. It‘s an exciting way of life that is filled with moments of happiness and disappointment. But that's hockey. People 'Well, here it is, the twenty-first of August. If one thinks about it for a moment, the long, lazy summer days have really flown by, and al- though we may hate to admit it, the hockey season is nearly upon us. I know that statement will bring a lot of groans! For many families it means dashing from one city to another with the team that your son, or in some cases, daughter plays on. After a. few weeks it can become pretty hectic, but we all get used to it. In fact one may go as far as to say that it can develop into a routine of sorts. ‘ in other countries have said that to understand the people of Canada, one must understand the lightning fast sport of hockey. If you took a tele- vision poll of the number of people who would willingly avoid watching a Toronto Maple Leaf - Montreal Canadiens hockey game, you could prob- ably count them on one hand. It’s interesting to note that many friendly rlvalries are built up through the course of a hockey season. A bit of money can even be lost, based on the success or failure of a certain team. Even on a local level. we can. easily find some friendly rivalries: And its not too difficult to see why (neighboring town against neighboring town for instance). For sure action and excitement, hockey is pretty hard to beat. Now you know what a fantastic sport it is (as if you don’t know already!) It doesn‘t matter at what level hockey is played, it has tremendous fan appeal. mmmm‘muummmm“immmummmum umnumumunummmumw In Richmond Hill, the Legion sponsored mid- get tournament is proof positive of this fact. All the way down to the smallest boy playing in the youngest. age group, there will still be a group of fans cheering them on. The Richmond Hill Hockey Association is recognized as one of the best hockey associations in this province. And for a good reason. They are a dedicated, hard- working group of men who have done an excellent job of organization for the various age groups. Like any other top-ranking association, they are always looking for ways to improve their product. One of the ways they’ve done this is by sponsor- ing a power skating school. Anyone wanting to take the course can register this Saturday (7 am to 1 pm at the Old Arena) or on August 25 (7 pm to 9 pm at the Old Arena). For further inform- ation, call Eric Girdler at 884-1605. I don’t think it's necessary to explain why skating is the most important facet of hockey. When a hockey scout is looking for a prospect. the first. thing he looks for is the skating ability of the young player. If he is lacking say in his checking or shoot- ing. a scout. figures that they can always be taught and worked on. But not skating. You simply have to be a good skater if you wish to go very far in a hockey career or even to becoming a geod player. In the National Hockey League, all the players have to be good skaters, but as every- one knows their styles differ. For instance, there is the smooth and graceful style of Dave Keon. Dave’s style gives the impression that he is effortlessly skating miles every game as he seems to glide along the ice. In fact. Keon of the To- ronto Maple Leafs is probably the fastest skater in the National League. Then there is the long-striding Frank Ma- hm‘lich of the Detroit Red Wings. It doesn't appear as if the Big “M” is moving very quickly. but his deceptive style leaves many defensemen lunging at thin air. So the style isn't important. but the ability to skate is. That's why this power skating can be so advantageous. Although the drills will seem a little strenuous at first, the ex- perience will do you a world of good. And don’t be too discouraged if your skating is progressing at a slow rate. It took players like Mahovlich and Keon hours and hours of practice, before they could make those exciting end-to-end rushes. So stick with it. You may surprise yourself and your instructor! resident of Richmond Hill. Barney Bailie Is a grade 12 student at Richmond Hill Hizh School!
