RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 27, 1974 in the best of five finals of the York Simcoe Bantam “2" Hockey League. Classy Greiner (37 goals, 35 assists in 41 games) cen- tres linemater Greg Mac- Millan and Ross Queren- gesser, and this trio account- ed for a total of 92 goals and 89 assists this year. The Hillers were at fever pitch when they hit the ice. and Greg Walton whistled home the puck at 1:53 of the first period. A power play goal by Greiner was set up by Walton, followed by two more tallies by Greiner, the first assisted by MacMillan, as Victoria led 4-0 after two periods. Goalie Mark Porter, again showing the sharp reflexes of a cat. was unbeatable until 4:32 of the last period when Schomberg finally clicked on a power play goal. Catching fire. Schomberg scored once again just 34 seconds later to narrow the gap to 4-2, and they buzzed around the net firing shots at will as the Killers were running out of gas. Steve Shadoff played the last three min tes in Vic- toria's net and x as forced to kick out seven difficult shots. With the Schomberg goalie out of the net. an alert Querengesser fed the puck to a speeding Greiner. and Robert calmly and deliber- ately fired the puck in the empty net. This was an excellent team effort, but it was not with- out casualties as the older Schomberg club hit with au- thority. Courageous Chris Bedford caught a stick in the forehead and had a bump as big as an egg, while Angus McGregor and Pete ’I‘ipold had to leave the ice when they were hurt with sticks to their stomachs, Walton and Phil McLaughlin were effec- tive with their crisp hitting as they kept Schomberg honest. Atom The Perryhill Rams go to Framingham, Mass.. this weekend where they will compete in the Perini Invi- tational Tournament. After a crushing 8-0 loss to Thornhill in their best of three semi-finals. Perry Hi1] Industries travelled to Mark- ham Saturday night for the second game. It was a tight hard-hitting game as the ref- erees called a total of 30 minutes in penalties, and the final score was Thornhill 2. Perry Hill 1. Thornhill opened the scor- ing at the 14:05 mark of the second period on a goal by Rob Humphries assisted by Kevin Goble. The Rams con- tinued to slug away and at the 4:58 mark of the third Ken Jenson tied the game. with help from Paul Har- rietha and Mark Lockerbie. This forced the game into overtime and the Hillers con- tinued to pressure Thornhill only to be foiled by their goalie. It wasn't until the 7:16 mark of the overtime period that Thornhill broke the deadlock and eliminated Richmond Hill from further play. nam encounters. There have been more strenuous weeks, I'm sure of that. Right off hand I can think of World War I, World War II, the Korean and Viet- ‘‘‘‘‘‘ about the 7th annual Richmond Hill International Legion Midget Hockey Tourna- ment which ground to a conclusion Sunday after- noon after something like 50 games throughout the week. As one of the tournament officials was heard to remark somewhat wearin toward the end. “You go to bed every night tired. You get up exhausted.” That goes for all of the many volunteers who offered their services during those seven days. I got exhausted just watching those chaps hurry- ing by on their way to this and that particular area of the rink. At every tournament there is always the fellow who “haunts” the place. You know the kind. He’s there an hour before the first game of the first day. He never leaves. Why, I even get tired of a party after the fourth day. LISTEN TO ME You can see him leaning over an arena rail- ing, against the side of a wall, almost all over the place, at any time. Between sips on a coffee, healthy bites out of a hotdog, he’ll tell you any- thing you want to know about any team or player on the ice. He’ll even tell you if you don’t want to know. TO THE LOSERS Then you have what I call the “loser.” That’s me. I can watch a game and never see a goal. You know what I. mean. It can be the dullest contest in the world, I go for a walk, get a coffee, and each team has rattled in four goals by the time I get back. Sometimes I just have to turn my head and, bang, they get a goal. You’ve got to have philosophy. There certainly was a lot of action out there on the ice but, truthfully, I find myself observ- ing the things that often happen off the ice. Tournaments, it seem, are almost a world unto themselves. It’s like Saturday night in an ant colllony. Youngsters everywhere, adults every- w ere. seems at a t Hey, iods of a g: ing. Most washroom, coffee bar there. I’m wonder. has icent.

Scotia Bank Wins Peewee "B" Title However, every player on the Maple team came up with some superb play and that was the major dif- ference. Robb Hudson, playing with a cast on his hand, scored the first goal and it was his tenacious check- ing after that which kept Stirling in their own end most of the game. Dennis Limoges. with two goals and Steven Le- moine with one, rounded out the scoring. Joe Saun- ders gave Maple outstand- ing goal-tending and had a well-deserved shutout.
