BADMINTON ANYONE? Anyone interested in playing badminton this winter competitively or just for recreation is invited to contact Sandra Collins for the Toronto and Dis~ trict Badminton Association, 221-2843. Sandra re- ports that several badminton clubs in the Metro area havejontacted her re joining the association. VISITORS FROM QUEBEC Thanksgiving Weekend was something of a gala affair in Richmond Hill minor circles with the visit to The Hill of 25 citizens of Quebec who have billeted the youngsters from the Peewee Lions every tournament; year. ' “Liberal” reporter Mary Dawson was on hand to welcome the arrivals Saturday afternoon along with minor hockey executives. Miss Dawson rose to the occasion by welcoming the visitors in, yes, French! She did cheat a little by taking a crash course earlier but, just the same, she did it. As for me, I’m still taking crash courses in English. Still crashing, too. DYNES PLAY GALES Don’t forget to take in what might be (unless, that is they win) Richmond Hill Dynes Jewellers’ “last hurrah" for the 1970 ball season tonight (Thurs- day) when the team meets Oshawa Gales in the third game of their best-of-three Oshawa and District Fastball League semi-finals. The Gales won the first game but Dynes bounced back to take the second one 6-2. And, in passing, you have to pay due credit to those ball teams from Oshawa. They’re always tough, always in there when the counting is done. Witness the past weekend as both the Tony’s and the Gales won the All-Ontario senior honors - Tony’s “A” and Gales, “B”. Also note that Pete Landers pitched all three games for Tony’s winning the first one 2-0, losing the second 3â€"1, and winning the third 10-1. He struck out a. total 9f 8_5 batters. Quite a pitcher. There are about 12 clubs in the Richmond Hill area. and she has a list of them so if you want to find out about the one closest to you, why not give Sandra 3. call? Miss Dawson also reports Richmond Hill is the only community to ever hold Open House for the Quebec City billets. Mightly fine gesture, as they say. A dance was also held at the Lions Hall Saturday night preceded by a dinner at La Rich- elieu in North York. ‘ RAMS LOSE Finally, the Richmond Hill Rams lost a close 6-4 game to league-leading North York over the weekend which is no disgrace. That, to date, leaves the team with a 1-1 record. The Rams play Mark- ham here next Tuesday night. He was with a Kitchener entry in 1960 which won a Silver Medal for finishing second (natural-1y) to Russia and with the Nationals in 1964 who didn't win anything. Bob played most of his early hockey in New- market and later graduated to the Guleph Junior “A” team. He’s 34. Congrats and best of luck to him in his political joustings. He is a former school teacher now selling real estate. The name of Forhan is a familiar one around Newmarket and Northern York County as well as a much wider area due to the fact that he was a play- ing member of two of Canada’s Olympic hockey teams. I see that the sporting world has added yet another name to the political field, namely New- market’s Robert Forhan who was elected mayor of that community inithe October 5 elections. a dozen of other things once just thought of as frills or luxuries. It’s either ride the band wagon or jump off. I’ll bet there won’t be too many of you jumping off. You get to like it up there. You want these things, you pay for them. Especially in 1970. So there's always a way. People have a way of getting by, somehow, and life goes on. As for the majority of you. Might as well accgpt it. _Mln_or hqcl<ey is here_ to stay along with 12 But, of course, this is a personal matter each must solve in his or her own way. Mr. Graham noted that at least one business firm in the town has already submitted five names of persons unable to pay their way and has provided the money for registration for their children. An admirable ges- ture. This‘is a problem but I don’t think it’s insur- mountable. You are what you are. I’ve been broke all my life but I’m not ashamed of it. It's my bus- iness. Not yours. That’s the way I like it. There’s no social blight. in my opinion, about finding the going tough money-wise. Here I am, take me or leave me. 7 _ > 7 A TTEN 1'! ON : Figure Skaters!

S’pot: . ,, THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, Oct. 15, 1970 NEW ‘LEAGUE’ FOR FORHAN Newton's score resulted from a third period penalty shot with Richmond Hill lead- ing 4-1. A scramble in front of the Rams net saw some of the This proved to be just a fore- runner to a major flare-up a few minutes later between the same Desroches. along with the aforementioned players with the resultant exit from the game of the five involved. The hockey portion of the night’s proceedings saw returnee Barry Head pace the Richmond Hill offens- ive with a two goal per- formance and an assist. Other Rams goals went to Rice, Bill Law, Craig Terry and John Precious. Don Wickett was the big gun for Whitby firing three third period goals in a row as his team drew to Within one goal of the struggling Rams. Other goals went to Mark Blanchard and Wayne Newton. Desroches started proceed- ings off at the 3:01 minute of the second period with Rich- mond Hill leading 3-1 when he took violent exception to the Rams’ Bob Labelle whacking away at a loose puck in the goalmouth and flailed away at the latter until both tumbled to the ice with Desroches on top. Taking early shOWers were Richmond Hill’s Daryl Rice, Bill Durnan. and Bob Labeue. Joining them were Whitby’s Michel Henri and Desroches. Fiery Whitby Goalie Brian Desroches was the prime fig- ure who set the fuse for the second period flurry of fisti- cuffs, nail-scratching, and talk- fest which resulted in five play- ers receiving game misconducts. Seniors: Bayview 13, Richmond Hill 13 The senior Raiders from Bayview had to come from behind twice just to get a ’09. One thing I did notice, could be classified as either a Bayview weak- nesqur a Riphmond Hill strength. Rams Open With Win Defeat Whitby Via 6-5 The Richmond Hill team connected for quite a few passes, all of which went for good yardage. The Raiders’ season is 1-1â€"1, for 3 points out of a pos- sible 6. Interlnediates: Bayview 19, Richmond Hill 7 SOCCER: Bayview’s soccer team had a bad week, as they only picked up 1 out of a possible 4 points. In their first game they suffered a sur- prising defeat, as a determined Woodbridge team shut them out 1-0. Later on in the week they re- corded a tie, as Thornhill held them at a 2-2 dead- lock. This game was quite a letdown, as the first time these teams met, Bayview had little trouble in bombing Thornhill 11-0. Starting next week,~ if there is any, I will in- clude the results from the intra-mural activities at Bayview. This will continue all through the winter, if there is anything to report on. _Getti1fg Bayview’s goals were Simpson and Dawes. The six houses are: Aklévik, Best, CHinook, Durham, Equestrian and Falconbridge. The Bayview Intermediates gained their second victory in a row, as they had dropped their first game of the season. The big man for the Bayview team was again Hugh Cutler. Hugh accounted for two of Bayview’s touchdowns, while Mike Ball picked up the third. For now it will_ suffice to say that there are six houses, with roughly 250 students in each one. Each housgincludes students from grades 9 through 13. The Rams got off to a winning start by building up a 6-2 lead and then holding on to win 6-5 as a late period surge by Whitby Lasco Steelers fell short. By FRED SIMPSON A series of second period fights, a penalty shot, and a win for the Richmond Hill Rams highlighted the opening game of the Metro Junior “B” hockey season Tuesday night of last week at the Richmond Hill Arena. courts. That brings us up to the present. After elimination rounds at Thornhill and Midland, Debbie moves to the finals of the Ontario Federation of Secondary School Associations’ Tournament at Gait. This takes place this Friday. Although Debbie will be representing Richmond Hill High School, she will also be representing the Rich- mond Hill Lawn Tennis Association. Our good wishes go with you. Debbie. Good luck! Two years ago a girl from Barrie moved to Richmond Hill. Her name is Debbie Young. Debbie started raising a few eyebrows by making some great shots with a truly ancient racquet. Last year her play improved and she started to win over some of the better seniors. This year she has really' bloomed. In spite of many other com- mitments, she played for Richmond Hill on different occasions and did very well. Sunday morning, somewhat cooler and overcast, saw at one time singles between John Marais and Dennis Sfainer on one court. singles between Mark and Andie Girdler and doubles with Kieran Lennon and Bob McKee jousting Sam Ma}comson and Phil August. Quite a sport! A warm spell has brought out a flood of tennis addicts to wring the most out of the season for their favorite sport. This writer noted crowds of people on Saturday. All three courts were playing doubles with at least an equal number waiting to go on. And. as they say in tennis columns â€" see you at the High School SPORTS The visitors looked good enough to tie the game until they walked into a cheap tripp- ing penalty in the final min- utes which chilled their oppor- tunities. Whitby trailed 6-2 until the 10 minute mark of the final 20 minutes before launching an offensive that had Richmond Hill reeling as Wickebt knocked home three consecutive goals at 10:34, 14.49, and 16:42. The Rams led 2-1" at the end of the first period on goals by Law and Rice. They dominated play in the fight-strewn second period but could only manage two more goals to lead 4-1 going into that free-scoring final stanza. “We’re a very young team,” he said, "and we’ll get better with experience. We’re also basically a small, fast-skating team and, let’s face it, fighting isn’t our game. I want to beat the other guys with skating and shooting, that’s our game". Watson was particularly happy with the play of Head who scored the two goals as well as newcomer Defenceman Ray Antilla. "Ray is just 16 years old which gives him four more years of junior hockey. Now you know what I mean when I say we have a young tEam.” Sophomore Coach Bill “Scot- ty” Watson was happy with his begrfls opening game effort. By BOB CARTON local defenders piling onto the puck in front of the net and freezing it which brought about the penalty shot. Newton skated in from cen- tre ice, faked Goalie John Brown out of position easily, and slid a backhander into the open net. LET'S PLAY TENNIS By“Eric Girdle:- Phone 8844605 Richmond Hill Lawn Tennis Association Domik was again back to his dominating form as he allowed only four hits over the nine- inning game with two runs in the eighth inning. In the meanwhile, Dynes Were whacking losing Pitcher Larry Marshall for all of their six runs off nine hits over six innings. Marshall was replaced by Ron Taylor in the seventh and he pitched tWo innings of runless and hitless ball.

The win- ner will meet either Oshawa Tony’s or Oshawa Bunny's in the league finals. Joe O’Neill led the Jewellers with a two run homer in the second inning. A five run outburst in the ‘second inning plus the 23- ‘strikeout pitching of Bob Domik kept the Richmond Hill Dynes Jewellers in the best-of-three Oshawa and District Senior “A” Fastball League semi-finals‘ Thursday night of last week at the town park. As the Blues were away for the weekend, there was only one game played in the local league with Crosby Park down- ing Westsides 12-2 on two scor_ing plays by Mike Cupping.

This game will be played Sunday prior to the Raiders’ crucial match with Scarboro Vikings. Domik Dominates The entire team played ex- ceptionally well throughout the Thanksgiving Tournament that ran for three days. There was little doubt that the pint-sized Blues won the admiration of the crowd with their action both on and off the field. The local Raiders require a win over flhe Vikings by 13 points to make the playoffs and new Coach Bob Thompson The unprecedented six-play series came about when the Blues fumbled the ball after successfully stopping the Ham- ilton squad on the one yard line. and Hamilton had three more chance: to score.
