(Continued from Page 13) ronto when the Maple Leafs (fresh from a Stan- ley Cup triumph over Detroit the previous season) were hosting Chicago Black Hawks on November 14 at the Gardens? Mmmmmh. A4 «a v“ v..-“- That’s when Doug and Max Bentley, Bill Thoms Red Hamill were playing for the Chic- agoans. And look at that Maple Leaf line-up: Turk Broda‘ in goal, Syl Apps, Reg Hamilton, Billy “The Kid” Taylor, Sweeny Schriner, Hank Goldup, Bud Poile, Jim Thomson. A real nostalgia grabber. That’s the year when you could grab your- self a Biltmore Hat at every Leaf game if your ticket came up with the right number. Or after the game, if you were still in the mood, you could drop over to the Imperial Room of the Royal York and dance to Horace Lapp’s Orchestra of Funmakers until 12 pm; or stop in at the Mor- rissey Hotel at Yonge and Church which was the ‘home of Bunty Lawless and Willie the Kid (7)”. It was the time when broadcasts of NHL games over in Europe were one of the big mir- acles in modern communications, when Andy Lytle was sports editor of the Toronto Star, and Ted Reeve and Major Conn Smyth were snapped chatting with one another in uniforms. Yes, it was a year when you and I were younger (that’s if you were even on the scene) and Frank Tate was 55 and probably thinking about slowing down, just ‘a ‘iittle. But I’m getting carried away by nostalgia. However, I don’t care. Frank will be the last one to blame me. He probably has many moments of nostalgia when he thinks back over those years when (as a youth) he grabbed a “radial” (streetcar, I think) from Sharon around 3:30 pm on a Saturday afternoon. “I’d get to the game and after it was over and then take the radial back to Newmarket and walk four and a half miles to Sharon from there. I’d get home around 2:30 am. But that’s a long time ago.” It certainly is. Frank has lived in the Hill since about 1941 and, without a doubt, is known to quite a few people who have been around here for awhile themselves. They could be talking about the chances this season of the new-look 1973-74 Richmond Hill Junior “A” Rams or just, well, reminiscing over the past 100 years. The occasion, how- ever, was a Centennial wine-and-cheese recep- tion held October 2 before the local Rams’ first game of the season. “I don’t do much these days,” he said. “I used to cut the lawns and do a lot around the yards for the widows around here. Now, there’s only a few leftAthgt I _help out.” l4 When I left Frank’s I had a bundle of old Maple Leaf Garden programs under my arm. I still can’t get over how youthful Gaye Stewart looked way back in 1942. That’s a long time ago. I would be very remiss in not mentioning that Frank is also the oldest living Past Master of the Sharon Masonic Lodge of which he was a member for the past 56 years. Definitely should mention the recent recep- tion thrown by the town in honor of the Oak Ridges Midget Hockey team who won All-Ontario laurels last season. The boys were allpresented with plaques. The reception was held at the Bond Lake Arena. Some of those players have graduated to other teams this season including Dave Stuart to the Richmond Hill Junior “A” Rams; Terry Legge, Brian Jones, John Lenneville, and Bill Metcalfe “to the Oak Ridges “B’s”. A Richvale youth, Shawn McDowell, of 91 Birch Avenue, was an infielder-outfielder with the North York Squirts this past season. In case you didn’t know, the Yorkers won the All- Ontario Sunday with a 12-5 win over St. Cath- arines. Congrats to Shawn. A sort of “oophs” department note. Last week’s “Liberal” had a photo of a group of Richmond Hill lady tennis players at a reception heralding the team’s defeat of Pine Point to win the Inter-County Tennis Association League Championship . That was okay. Except the cut lines stated that the ladies shown played in that final game against Pine Point. Not so. Only two of them are shown. They were Eleanor Lloyd and Joan Lennon. The rest of the gals, however. were members of the team who par- ticipated in some 20 games over the season. Sorry about that.
