Swimming, fishing and a sand beach for sunbathing explains why a growing num- ber of families are discover- ing that the Milne Conserva- tion Area is an ideal recre- ational spot. A short distance to the northeast. the area is handy for evening as well as week- end picnics. There are bar- becue facilities available and hot and cold drinks are offer- ed at the refreshment booth. Milne, located west of the Town of Markham and south of Highway 7 on Concession 7, is operated by the Metro ConServation Authority. It’s open seven days a week from 10:00 am to sundown and is one of a number of conserva- tion areas open to the public. For further inforfnatioxi please contact Metro Conser- vation at 630-9780. One final note on A1 who is a grade 12 stud- ent at King City Secondary School. For the past two seasons with the Oak Ridges hockey Midgets he’s'won a trophy which, along with abillty, 1s given to a player displaying the most “gentle- manly” conduct while on ice. Which could sum up Al's attitude to sports. ' Richmond Hill 3, Yorkers 0 In the absence of Coach Barbara Onistchenko in Van- couver. the locals played this one with will to win. Out- standing performance by out- side right Dianne McDowell who scored all three goals. Welcome back to Bernie Dev- lin, sidelined for a couple of weeks. She strengthened the halfback line. (July 17) Don Mills Crees 1, Richmond Hill 0 This one should never have been lost. The locals were worth a tie, at least. It was “I’ll go with the team that has the worst pitching. I like to play ball. There’s no point in sitting on the bench.” _ Right. After all there’s nothing to do Sittâ€" ing on the bench and A1 likes to play ball because he wants “something to do.” Milne Area Ideal For Family Fun “One day one of the fellows jokingly said I’d never make a pitcher. That’s when I decided to be one.” LIKE MOTHER How did Al become a pitcher? “When I was about seven I was playing minor ball in Aurora. I had a good arm and played in the infield. Whenever we’d get in trouble they’d bring me in to hurl. I had a good fastball that surprised the batters. Then they’d take me out. Another reason might be something like hereditary. Al’s mother, Miriam, always wanted to be a pitcher and maybe, just maybe, this rubbed off on Al‘s psyche. AI is also a fine hockey star and has a room- ful of trophies for both that sport and softball. His favorite sport? “I guess it’s hockey in the winter, softball in the summer.” Good answer. Who would Al like to play for in senior ball? Simple: Richmond Hill 2, Don Mills Hurons 2 An excellent game played with determination by the local squad. Scorers were Shiel‘a Oakley and Debbie Trotman. The Baif team from The Hill always tried to pass the "call intelligently and some fine work by Kim Ker- nohan at midfield was noticed throughout. (July 11) (Continued from Page 15) three hours a day between games. “Some people tell me I throw too much and might hurt my arm. I don’t think so. There are some good ball people who tell me that it won’t hurt me at all. I had trouble at the beginning of the season with a sore back. Not from pitch- ing. "1 twisted it bowling. It’s coming around now. (July 4) Richmond Hill 3, Armourdale 1 The local Lazenby Lassies played extremely well in this one and deserved their win at Willowdale Field. Allison Laing scored twice with Linda Sciberas getting the other one. Outstanding per- formers were Helen Tomlin- son, who. although petite, just about ran herself off the field. She worked the ball out to the forwards and was al- ways willing to assist on de- fence. Cathy Mark also play- ed a sound game in goal. Coach Helen Pennyfather was pleased with her team’si showing. SCARBORO SENIOR LEAGUE NORTH YORK LEAGUE GIRLS (July 16) York Mills 1. This was an evenly fought game from the first whistle. The lone goal was scored by Kevin Kernohan. MOSQUITOS (July 24) CFGM l. SQUIRTS (July 22) Richmond Hill Dynes 6, Yorkminster 0 A relaxing game to watch for Coach Art Gossman as his team won convincingly. Brian Winch scored two goals with singles going to Richard Gray, Kenny Harrington, Michael and Robbie Stel.

Good luck to Park’s Electric in their future games â€"you could take the league outright. Why not shoot for top place by the end of the season. Special mention Goalie Jill Cornwall â€" an- other shutout. One word sums it all up â€" Great! Standings (As of July 5) NORTH YORK INTERMEDIATE LEAGUE (July 16) Richmond Hill 5. York Mills 0 Once again, Coach Sam Mcre'lli’s team won by a con- vincing score exactly the same as the previous week when they won 5-0 against Don Mills. Great teamwork is beginning to jell with this outfit and good passing and ball control saw the locals carry everything before them. Kim 'Wilson led. the scoring way with singles going to Suzan Ship- ley, Caroline Freibauer, and Marie Flood. two goals with: newcomer Lorretta Kir singles. Vicki Robinsm while Janine Bromley 1 three hits. The girls Fleetwood Park travelled to in Missis- ‘sauga for the second game and started off big by scor- ing eight runs in the first inning. Lori Mason hit two homers in the first inning, setting the tempo for the team. Brenda Buchan con- tribute a triple, two singles and a walk while Laurie Bar- nett and Vicki Robinson chipped in with two hits each. The Beetles will now face one of those soft goals that gave the Don Mills team both points. Richmond Hill should have scored twice in the first half but forwards failed to ram home the ball. However, this was a good game. though not punctuated by any real fine play. A star to Richmond Hill goalie Susan Stewart for a sound effort. Also special mention to Bernie Devlin.

Joe's Garage 6 In the first encounter Mon- day Barrcw‘s Insurance met and conquered the league leading Joe’s Garage 10-6. The insurance men were led by Glen Wright who went three for four at the plate, including a homerun driving in two runs. Carl Yong also homered for the winners. Barrows had only six hits but were aided by eight walks and four Joe’s errors. For Joe’s Brian Madely tripled with Pete Hannam, Bob Smith and Jim Anderson decorating the bases. Bob Four Hill Track Stars Plaque Winners At Meet There were only four re- gular games last week as the annual industrial league tour- nament had to be stretched to a conclusion Friday night, thus pre-empting the Friday night games for two weeks running. Beetles 37, Pott‘ageville 3 The W&P Beetles continu- ed their winning ways with lopsided 37-3 win over Pot- tageville at the Town Park July 17. It was evident from the start that they were too powerful for their opposition as they scored seven runs in the first, led by Beth Sha- doff's homer, which drove in three runs. The girls conti- nued to pound the ball and when it was all over, the final tally was 37 runs. Shadoff was the ‘big hitter with two singles, a double and a triple along with her homer. Martha Dynes con- tributed three singles and a triple, Brenda Buchan and Lori Brooshoot chipped in Teams competing in the Friday. Saturday. and Sunday double - knockout tournament include Scar- boro Linda] Homes. Win- ston Park. Chiovitti Ban- tams, Windsor. Richmond Hill, and, hopefully, two other teams.

The Beetles will now face Bay Ridges in the second round of their quest for the “B” division championship of the PWS‘U. The first game was away and it is expected the second will be played in the Town Park tonight (Wed- nesday). Bantam W&P Beetles Win First Round PWSU Playdowns In the first game the Beetles were trailing by three runs going into the third inning and came up with three of their own in the third. They arlded six more in the fourth which pretty well sewed up the game. Laurie Barnett was the big hitter with two singles and a double, while newcomer Lorretta King chipped in with two singles. Vicki Robinson sparkled at shortstop while Janine Bromley limited the opposition to three hits. The Bantam W&P Beetles opened the first round of their PWSU Playdowns against Apple- wood of Mississauga July 24 and came away winners by the scores of 10-3 and 15-8. Sr, This Weekend ‘On the strength of their showing Richmond Hill reâ€" tained the inter-club trophy that they won two weeks previously. Howard singled to drive home Madely to account for most of Joe‘s runs. Hannam went three for four at the plate and drove in two runs. Smith and Howard each went two for three. Joe‘s Garage had a total of 10 hits. Town Auto Body 6, Fram Filtration 0 In the nightcap Town Auto iBody skunked the Fram Fil- ‘tration team 1the firefighters) ‘6-0. The Town team struck ‘for three runs in the first as 1Colin Wood singled, followed by Gord Wright with a single, then Dwight Powell ‘got on an error to the Fram shortstop that cost Fram two runs. Bill Rodson singled home Powell to complete the scoring in the opening frame. In the next inning, Jim :Henderson singled, Wood (Continued on Page 17) Most of the local points were collected by Richmond Hill‘s extremely strong Mite- Tyke-Atom division. These athletes won the 100, 400 and 800 metre events placing first, second and third in most of their races. Double winners were mites Jerry March and Deanne Aubie, and single winners were John Marsh, Cathy Mark, Daniela Tosani, Jim Mark, Liz Srebrjak, Marnee Buckles, Bruce Cook. Melissa Garlick. and Sandro Costa. Sixteen year old Cheryl threw her first javelin two months ago and was highly satisfied with her number seven ranking in Ontario. BIG DAY Another big day for Rich- mond Hill AC was July 18 when all members competed in an inter-club meet with North York Track Club and Uxbridge Red Devils. Richmond Hill amassed a total of 114 points to 108 for North York and 59 for U):- bridge. The other two local repre- sentatives b o t h registered seventh place rankings. Cher- yl Paxton spearing the Midget javelin, 72 feet, and Jim Mark leaping just under 15 feet in the Bantam long jump. The other hardware winner was Rick Buchan who placed third in the bantam high jump. Summer job commitments curtailed Rick's training dur- ing the two weeks prior to the championships and this lack of preparation showed as Rick fouled out at 5' 4”, well bglgw his persorial {JeIStwgf place with a distance of 84 feet, 101/2 inches. Both second place efforts were beyond the winning dis- tances recorded in the 1973 Championships. Big hitters were Dynes with four singles, Robinson with two singles and a double and Clack with three singles. Although the Bolton club scored six runs, they were limited to three singles and a double by Pitcher Janine Bromley. in the bottom of the first and then the dam broke open a: the Beetles scored 11 runs in the second. Walks to Clack and Bromley, a single by Dynes, a double by Robinson, a walk to Chadoff and then the bases were cleared as McLeave tripled. Lois Mason doubled scoring McLeave and scored herself when Barnett singled. Brooshoost popped up and then five consecutive singles by Clack. Bromley, Dynes, Robinson and Shadoff scored three more runs be- fore the side was retired. Janine Bromley. on the mound, recorded 11 strike- outs of a possible 18, while limiting the opposition to ‘our hits. Beetles 18, Bolton 6 The Beetles took on Bolton Tuly 19 and won 18-6. They ‘tarted strongly by scoring four runs in the first by virtue of three walks to Dynes. Shadoff and Mason, 3 single by Robinson and a double by Buchan. Bolton narrowed the gap with two with three singles each with 'lori Mason and Julie Wells adding homers. Pottageville added three more runs in the second to lead 8-4 on a walk and two singles. and Allen replaced Inch on the mound. Billy Madden singled. Matt Zurich doubled and Fournier walked as all runners scored and The Hillel's trailed by llllllllllfllmmllllll“lllllllllull“llllll“lllllllllllllllllllllllllllll‘ Sensing victory was in their grasp,~the Lions shut out Alderwood the rest of the way. Ted Inch. who has pitched 153 inning this year and has 16 wins against six losses, tossed his heart out as he allowed eight hits but was hurt by four errors re- sulting in three unearned runs. ' League action saw the Lions edging Pottageville 15-14 July 22 at Crosby Park led by Jamie Tuck’s 12th homerun of the season with Dave Allen on base which proved to be the margin of victory. Pitcher Inch was moment- arily abandoned by his team- mates in the first inning as two errors resulted in Potta- geville scoring five unearned runs. The Lions countered with four runs as Gord Fournier walked, Dave Allen hit a homerun, Shawn McKenzie walked and Tim King singled. There were two out in the fifth inning when Moreland beat out a hunt followed by singles by Zurich and Inch. Showing great speed, Moreâ€" land and Zurich both scored as the Alderwood players de- cided to throw the ball around the field. An Alder- wocd run in the fifth made the score 9-8 in favor of the Lions. The juveniles finished their league schedule Tues- day evening of this week and will now be entering the OAST playdowns. This weekend they are heading for Samia to parti‘ cipate in a tournament. Richmond Hill opened the tournament with aheavy-hit- ting 14-8 win over Brace- bridge with Pitcher Allen picking up his eighth win in easy fashion. He was relieved by Darrel Gleason who fini- shed the game. McKenzie clouted his fifth homerun while Gord Fourâ€" nier and Dennis Kane hit doubles, Matt Knights and Fournier each scored three runs. McKenzie two. while Matt Zurich, Allen, Gleason, Jamie Tuck, Ted Inch, and Billy Madden each scored once. Tipold got two hits and Jeff Wood and Barry Locke also performed Well at the plate. Hillaby was fil- ling in at shortstop and pulled off a number of nice plays. The Lions outlasted Alder- wood 9-8 in an exciting see- saw second game. Zurich, Inch and Tuck each scored in the first inning but Alder- wond came right back to be the game at 3-3. In the second inning, Dale Moreland and Ted Inch each singled followed by Tuck's 14th homerun of the season. Allen reached base on an error as the Lions led 7â€"3. The persistent Alderwood team plated three more runs as the Hiller led 7-6; again Alderwood tied the game. Val Steffan was the Win- ning pitcher, hurling a four-hitter. From that point on the\1 game developed into a tensel pitching battle as Inch allow- ed only two runs on seven hits in 6 and 2/3rd innings. Unfortunately f o r t h 9 Lions, the Belleville chucker was just as good. Backed by an excellent fielding team, Belleville shut out the Lions until the last inning when Shawn McKenzie hit a fast ball for a solid homerun. In the second contest against East Guildwood Thursday, the Hillers came out with a 9-4 win. In the first game, played Tuesday night, they came up with a 3-3 tie against the North York Royals. Jim Clement pitched a three-hitter, struck out three opposing batters and issued two walks. Mike Graydon swung a big bat, getting a homer, as well as Playing very well in the field. Pitcher Dave Allen hit the first batter followed by two singles and two Lion errors and Belleville led 4-0. Ted Inch was rushed in to pitch with one out in the first and he quited the rally. Richmond‘ Hill Juveniles were undefeated last week as they tied one game and won the other of their two tilts. T h a t elimination loss against nemisis Belleville saw the Lions start shakin in rainy weather. Earlier they had defeated Bracebridge 14-8 and Alder- wood 9-8. Richmond Hill’s Peewee Lions got as far as the semi finals of the North York Tournament “A” division Sa- turday before dropping a 6-1 decision to Belleville. Ed In League Lions Lose By'6-I Bielley‘ille In Tourney Hill Juveniles Go To Sarnia Pottageville scored a run in the top of the seventh and had a runner on third with one out but Allen pitched hard and came up with his seventh victory. With this win the Lions have virtually locked up first place in the York Simcoe League. The visitors scored four times in the fourth to lead 12-7 but the Lions crossed five runs to tie the game. Zurich, Tuck. McKenzie and Matt Knights singled. Allen walked and King reach- ed base on an error. Again Pottageville scored to lead 12-12. but Dale Moreland beat out a bunt to eventually score. Allen got on base on an error with two out and then Tuck lbelted a homerun to provide the winning mar- gin. l one RAY PADLEY Mr. Robert K.
