The initial winner was Alf Fry who was um- pire-in-chief this season. And from all reports Aif more than deserved to be the first winner. Umpiring at the best of times (are there any best times?) is a rather thankless but vital chore. Congrats to Alf. YEA CASEY And speaking of Russell “Casey” Cripps (wasn’t I?) reminds me that I have been remiss in not mentioning the fact that he recently donated a trophy (to be presented annually) to the person considered to have contributed the most to minor softball in Richmond Hill. Of course, the beef was delicious and I hear the chicken was good too. All in all, quite an evening. But I just want to know why the gentlemen got the beef and the ladies the chicken. The world is complicated enough these days Without this kind of action. Heroes were the order of the day as the members of the 1972 Dynes Jewellers’ World Softball Champions were honored with plaques denoting their many accomplishments. Special guests were Dick Hames from London (who joined the team and who played a major factor with his pitching and hitting in Manila), Pierre Boivin, catcher from Hull. Another guest was Kenny Rhora of Welland who joined the team for the All-Canadian Tournament in Edmonton this season. 'I'I-IE PANTâ€"IN Other than that it was a very logical and rewarding evening Thursday night of last week at the Summit Golf and Country Club. 24 YONGE ST. N. RICHMOND HILL ADARDS, AWARDS The thing that bothered me about the ninth annual Richmond Hill Awards Banquet and social evening was the fact that the gentlemen were served roast beef and the ladies chicken. 14 It says here department: Paul DeMarco, longtime resident and hockey star in Thornhill, has been signed to play for the Wexford Raiders Junior “A” Team. Paul was a member of the Thornhill Juven- iles who were OMHA Finalists last season. Ah, yes I remember. Then one winter it all changed and it kept on changing and now it’s all gone. There are times like this when I wish I could have it back again. Just for one Saturday night. (Continued from Page 13) Then came the game and delirium when the Leafs won, terrible sadness when they lost. The Leafs always played so-so during the regular season in those years. They might finish fourth but they were always the Stanley Cup Winners in the playoffs. . . . Sport Spots. . .

The ribbon cutting was per- formed by Peggy and Mike Clark on behalf of the Gamble Family which was responsible for donating the lO-acre site. It included a three year effort to gather funds toward such a structure which had fallen by the wayside. But that was all behind Sun- day as a stream of cars and people poured onto the parking lot of the lOâ€"acre site which will be the home of the new arena and the community centre on the area known as Ozark Park. That ribbon marked the offi- cial opening of the new Bond Lake Arena and the realization of a number of years of efforts to make such a happening come about. Over 900 Oak Ridges a-rea spectators turned out Sunday afternoon to watch a ribbon being snipped. BOB ROSS JR.

Blyth said, “your dream would have been foiled again. Of course. we must mention the Richmond Hill Town Council whose part was anything but small in ar- ranging the necessary govern- ment grants." The new arena. built under the auspices of the Richmond Hill Arena Board, is the third one to go into action in Rich- mond Hill. The seven member arena board is chaired by Bill McVean. “For many of us in the Oak Ridges area of Richmond Hill the finalizing of plans and pre- parations for Bond Lake Arena and the Community Centre is a definite dream come true. “For a number of years now the area has tried to provide such a community centre and after the regional government changes and becoming part of Richmond Hill everything seem- ed to jell. ticipated in the official cere- monies. My wife and I had looked forward to seeing our own local team the Vaughan Na- tionals play their first game (October 29) in Maple but the violence we witnessed left us both feeling sick to our stomachs. If I had any wish to see fisticuffs I could have gone to the Landsdowne AC where after the combatant is knock- ed down no further blows are inflicted. I have just walked out of Maple Arena in complete dis- gust at the brawl that had left two of the players lying on the ice. If this is an ex- ample to the youth of the area I’m afraid that they had better start taking boxing lessons. In this altercation, two players were punched sense- The hard-charging Rich- mond Hill Southern Blues downed the Canada Bolt Bombers 31-6 Sunday after- noon to win the 1972 York County Minor Football League championship. Despite the score, the game was a close, hard- fought one for most of the way. The first half ended with the Blues leading 7-0. They got on the scoreboard first with a single point off a missed field goal attempt. Harold Simpson scored their only touchdown of the half when he crashed over from the five yard line.

In chalking up four wins and a tie in the early going the Kings are right up there with the leaders in the OHA Central Junior “C” Hockey League. Monday night's encounter before over 200 fans was something of a breeze for the Kings as they led the visitors from Penetang 3-0 at the end of the first period and 5-0 going into the third. ' Bill McIlwaine led the scoring with two goals and as many assists. Other goals went to Greg Woloski. Dave Van Nostrand, Digby Bourke, Bill Gunaine, John Lennon- ville and Terry Rice. Peter Stuart continued his fine play setting up two goals with nice passing. Terry Haviland played a steady game in the Kings’ twines although not heavily beleagured at any time dur- ing the game. The result was the same but it was a different story playwise in Port Perry Thurs- day as the Kings had to come The two Penetang goals were scored by Bob Moreau and Brian Duquette.

He concludes: “To me personally, two dreams came true not only see- ing the building of our com- munity centre and all the pos- sibilities that it holds with the park outside, but also the for- mation of a junior hockey club in our area, which I am more than sure will provide the opportunity for boys to enjoy playing at home when they reach that calibre of play and also the opportunity for the people in our area to see our local boys in action". I think it’s about time that hockey officials seriously consider playing interna- tional rulesâ€"where fighter’s are tossed out of the game. It has been proved to the Canadian public what kind of hockey (Canadian-Russian Series) that international rules can bring about. That is the criterion of a good hockey player: How he can skate, pass, check, shoot, puckhandle and not how he can use his “dukes”. less while lying on the iceâ€" I hope they recovered be- cause I didn’t stay around to watch any more of this so- called sport. In explaining why we were home early to our 11-year- old daughterâ€"she remarked that she though boys played hockey for fun ! ! ! The Blues got on track once more when Riley slipped off left tackle for a touchdown. Simpson’s convert attempt was good making the score 15-6. The Blues scored two more touchdowns in the fourth quarterâ€"one on a left end sweep by Riley and the'other on a sneaker sleeper play Simpson's two convert at- tempts were good. up the loose ball and gal- loped 65 yards for his first touchdown of the year mak- ing the score read 7-6. This greatly upset the Blues and inspired them to play a rougher and tougher game. Playing well for the Blues were Halfbacks Mike John- son, Ollie Nelson and Brian Murchison. from behind a 1-0 deficit to Standouts for the Bombers were Jim Barber, Franky Curtis, Steve Grenier, Steve Wood and Ron McGregor. V Port Perry’s Ken Coulter opened the scoring at the 7:51 mark of the first period as he scored an unassisted goal on Oak Ridges' Larry Clews who was excellent in the nets. The score remained that way until the 2:53 second mark of the middle session when John Lennonville took a pass from John Ranieri near the blueline and whist- led a slap shot that found the mark. Then it was up to Rob Sackfield to score the win- ner at 8:32 as he skated down-ice, right in on net, and flipped the puck over the goalie’s shoulder and into the top comer. Assists went to Terry Rice and Bill Gunaine. Pete Stuart and Paul Madaleno were also fine per- formers during the game with Stuart setting up some nice plays and Madaleno come up with a solid game on defence. The Kings were handicap- ped by the pool lighting of the arena as well as the small ice surface. The game. due in part to the small ice surface. was a rough one most of the way. Kim Mabley received un- determined injuries to his arm when he was Slashed by a Port Perry opponent. The Kings play in Mark- ham Saturday night and are at home to Lindsay Monday night at the Bond Lake Arena. Game time is 8:30 68 Netherford Road, Maple. JOHN YATES, Yet another cheque was re~ ceived by the arena board to go toward the stacking of the com- munity hall with furniture and dishes. It was presented by Gord Achilles, a past executive member of the Oak Ridges and District Arena Association. The eventful day closed with coffee and doughnuts served to adults and cokes and hot dogs for the children. Kings’ President Blyth receiv- ed a trophy as presented by the Oak Ridges Minor Hockey As- sociation for his contribution in the past two years to minor hockey and the realization of a new hockey club and arena. A $1,000 cheque was given to Bill McVean of the Arena Board to go toward the purchase of safety glass which will be plac- ed along the outside boards of the arena. The money was col- lected by Oak Ridges Kings’ hockey director Bill Corcoran via a “phon-a-thon” conducted by himself. ed a big hand when they skat- ed out on the ice wit-h the Oak Ridges “Little King" Mites. Presentations included the donation of two cheques to the parks and arena boards by the Oak Ridges Lions Club toward the community hall and the sound system for the arena and the purchase of bleachers. n1InuImuIlmulmmumnumnnuumlInnunmnmmmnnu More Sports Page 22 MoIo-Ski‘S’ ‘Trademark of Mote-Ski Limited © Mote-Ski Limited, 1972.
