of chess. FASTBALL NOTE Finally, a fastball note. Whee. The Toronto and District Fastball League held its annual get-together last Friday night and the Richmond Hill Dynes Jewellers walked off with most of the glory. They won the league championship trophy for capping all the marbles for the second straight season. In addition, Manager Russell “Casey” Cripps was named all~star manager. Other all-stars were Dave Russell. right field: Bob Smith, shortstop: Bob Shelston, catcher; and, of course Wally Dick, pitcher. Wally was also named the league’s most val- uable pitcher and you want to believe he deserved that and more. form. around. It’s sort of getting toflliaieâ€" a habi’E f3}: the Jewellers, yea, a nice habit. When you realize that‘speeel; everage about 90 miles an hour and you’re driving a 86,000 machine you think about the cost of wrecking your vehicle. Danny, who. is 29, finished 'ifi’i'mh position October 6 at MOSport in the last of the season’s formula races and has decided he needs a new, faster machine. He’s had his present one for four years. “You don’t really win much at some of these races. Like I said, it’s mainly a hobby. I was supposed to have collected $2,000 at one place but I still haven’t_seen the money.” it?! Danny hasn’t had too many problems that way although two years ago at Three Rivers he hit some water while racing and the resultant thump damaged his car to the tune of about 8600. Nothing serious, though. “It's mainly a hobby and it keeps me out of trouble after work. I like it.” Which. after all. is a good reason for racing. As for me, I prefer a quiet. sedentary game -1.‘ -1.--‘ “I like racing as a hobby. It can be expens- ive because the car I drive is worth about $6,000 and you can very easily lose it in a bad crack-up”. He drives a Crosley made in Ireland. One of these latter types is Danny Ziccardi of 19th Avenue in Richmond Hill. Danny has just finished a season of Ford Formula racing at Mosport and other tracks and, as he puts it: To each Some people others spend dignity. To each his own hobby, as I always say. Some people collect people, some stamps, and others spend most of their time collecting their dignity. But there are quite a few (I’m certainly not one of them) who like to go around racing in cars. Billy is the son of Mr. and Mrs. David Stephenson, 92 Laverock Avenue, Richmond Hill. Mr. Stephenson represents Ward 4 on town council and has been a well known contractor for many years in the Hill. “I just haven’t made up my mind yet.” Billy, incidentally, was a member of that Richmond Hill Peewee Team of a few seasons ago that surprised everyone by winning the Que- bec International Tournament. One of his mates on that squad was Jim Clement who is also coming into his own this season with the ams. Which is a gbod reason for making your way downito the arena and watching some of these budding young hockey stars. When you come to think of it the Rams are very well represented by “key” local players such as Stephenson, Clement, and of course, Dave “Diggerf’ >Dunkley. When you’re a “veteran” star at 16 the world is pretty wide and pretty inviting. “Sure, I’d like to go all the way in hockey,” he said. “But I really don’t know what I’ll be doing right now. I’m a student at Richmond Hill High and I’ve been approached by a couple of colleges. That’s quite heady praise but this fellow is a fairly astute observer of the scene. Time will tell but one thing for certain: CONTROLS THE PLAY As one veteran hockey observer put it: “He’s one of the key men out there, he’s matured into a top defenceman. He controls the play and he’s a field general. Quite frankly, I think he’s NHL material." There’s net been very much to criticize Billy about this season. I asked him about how he feels about crit- icism. Got the answer I expected. “It doesn’t bother me. You’re out there to do a job and you try to do it right. If you get criticized you just take it. It doesn’t bother me.” ’What reéulted was a few célls, I think a letter, berating me for picking on Billy. I got the message. Billy is also probably one of the more pop- ular Rams with the younger set. I found out a season ago when I chanced to mention in a couple of stories that a goal was scored when he gave the puck away. I did it innocently, honest. (Continued from Page 13) PHYSICAL FITNESS “I’m a lot stronger this season,” states Billy. “I attended Lloyd Percival’s Fitness Insti- tute over the past summer and lifted weights, performed all the other exercises, and that helped add to my weight. “Jack andiI make a pretty good combination. It helps when you play regularly with one fellow and you know each other’s moves. Of course, it might be difficult getting adjusted to some- one else’s style.” ' 14 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, Oct. 25, 1973 A fine first year for Wally in a Dynes uni- C9me_ t_o think pf it.
