VOL. 98, NO. 12. Candy joined skating 'forces with Donald over a year ago and he immediately gave her the loyalty test. Dropped her. During one of their intricate spins. Broke her pelvis. Just one of those things. ' As Candy explained it: As much as I always enjoy chatting with 18-year-old Donald Fraser of Richmond Hill it nevertheless tends to make memorose. The ques- tion always comes back to haunt me. How come he stays young and I keep getting older? . A Donald, of course, is a v er y prominent member of the Rich- mond Hill Figure Skating Club and has been for several years. Years? How can you have years w h e n you’re his age? LIKE FUN “This is something that happens once in a while. He was twirling me in the air when his skate caught in a chip in the ice and it threw him. I went too. Of course, I’ve cut him with my blades during some of our rputines.” DONALD FRASER Jones of Wlllowdale. She’s a member of the Toronto Cricket Skating Club. ulmuvu u“-.-.a ~v___- -_ Sounds like fun. I should add that the above is the exception but it does give you some idea about the rigors of being a figure skater and having a partner. It looks easy out there. It isn’t. GERMANY. FRANCE The reason for my latest confab with Don was his and Candy’s recent return from Germ- any and France where they had competed inIIn- ternational Senior Pairs eomgetitions in August. H The news was good. -The two of them managed seconds in both events trailing another Canadian twosome from Preston. “We were especially happy,” said Don, “be- cause we’ve only been skating as partners since last summer. You have to be together for awhile to get y0urrroutines worked out.” _ Another big plus was the fact the showing came in international competition which means you’re skating in front of people you have to impress. “The big problem in figure skating compe- tition,” continued Don, “is to get known to the judges. It’s the same old story of getting recog- nized. The only way you can do it is by skating in international events.” Don and Candy are hoping this “recognition” will stand them in good company for the Canad- ian Senior Pairs Championships in Quebec at the end of January. It’s the big one. The top three finishers will be selected for a national squad to participate in the World Championships to be held in Colorado Springs next February. “I finished fourth last time,” said Donald, “and this time I hope to be in the number two or three slot.” Now that I’ve said all the above I must con- fess that figure skating has always been one of those sports I know very little about. Like cricket. say, or Love 40. “I’ve Vie-wed competitions and have come away wondermg what mysterious method judges Pleasure Skating and Shinney Hockey The Parks & Recreation Department an- nounces Pleasure Skating and Shinney Hoc- key at the following times and locations, beginning the week of October 7th, 1974.

The results of the three contests were hardly an in- dication of the true poten- tial of the squad. The Rams could have just as easily gone undefeated if they had been able to cash in on the numerous opportunities they had in dropping a 4-1 de- cision to the. Nats. The Richmond Hill Ath- letic Club will participate in the Fall Runathon Day in conjunction with the On- tario Track and Field Asso- ciation. but with an addi- tional feature. The local track club will be running at the high school on Wright Street from 10:30 am to 11:30 am, September 21, and at the same time, citizens of Richmond Hill and area may challenge the 1974 members in an attempt to better the 400 metre mark, the shotput, or long jump distances. “‘We‘re shaping up pretty well". was the way Rich- mond Hill Rams' Coach Karl Brimblecombe summed up the results of three exhibi- tion hqckey games which saw his players come up with a win, loss and a tie. The Rams opened their exhibition series at home Wednesday night of 'last week against Toronto Nationals and dropped a 4-1 game. They bounced back Friday night to tie a potent Aurora Tigers squad 5-5 Friday night at Chesswood Arena, and avenged‘ that first loss by trouncing Toronto Nats 6-3 on Satur- day night. Coach Brimblecombe is still playing the numbers game with 39 players listed on his training camp roster and expects to “cut down by the end of the week." “I’ve had tantamount to three different teams going for me,” said Brimblecombe, “and I've got a lot more coming in. It's difficult to get a real line on the capaâ€" bility of a team under these conditions. We’ve had a lot of good young kids out there." That game saw the Rams outshoot the winners by 47 to 27. Richmond Hill had a wide edge on territorial play Athletes from six years of age‘to 21 will be participat- ing in both the runathon and the challenge events with (he more hardy types attempting to keep running for the entire hour. Successful challengers in one of the events will be rewarded by a fitness medal, victories in all three events will produce a transistor radio for the challenger. Shotputter John Monk has announced his intention to tote his 225 pound frame ten times around the 300 onetre course. Most of John's =ponsors are betting he will not compete more than four of the laps. Runathon (Day Brings Chance To Challenge Club Records Monies donated during _his runathon event will go directly to the development 9f track and field in the Richmond Hill area. The mites (6 and 7) have runner Stephen Ralls to consider. Stephen placed fifth in the Ontario Cham- pionships at 400 metres. Rams Lose, Tie, Win In Exhibition Hockey Local athletes who intend ‘.o challenge the 1974 club members in an attempt to win a medal or transistor ~adio will find the calibre Jf competition fairly high. Richmond Hill Athletic Club Tyke challengers (8 and 9) must better Melissa Gar- .ick in shotput. or Diane Dewer in the 400 metres. or Dryw Thompson in the long jump. Atoms (10 and 11) have Ontario finalist in the high jump. Kathi Mark, placing :er long jump distance on the line for competition. The older the athletes be- :ome, the tougher the :hances are to better the .974 times and distances. The bantam division (12 and 13) has Ontario Cham- pion Jane Toporow ki in the shotput, Swifty Ma. ‘11 Wild- OUTSHOOT OPPOSITION The Rams' ability to stay in contention with some of last season's leading teams has been encouraging. It is, however, very dangerous to make prognostications for the upcoming season on the basis of these early suc‘ cesses. Not to forget the older generation, Coach B 0 b Thompson has placed his times and distances on the line for any citizen over 40 The 5-5 sawoff with the powerful Tigers saw Brimble- combe going with eight re- turnees and 13 rookies. Most impressive was veteran Ram Rick Febbo with two goals and last year‘s best rookie Bennie Pederson who scored a goal and picked up an assist. He also rushed well from his defence post all night and looks to be in for a big season. FEBBO, PEDERSON STAR Febbo and Pederson again played well in Saturday's re- venge win over the Nats which saw Brimblecombe’s lineup again studded with rookies, Both Febbo and Pederson scored goals. berger in the 400 metres, and Sandra Diggiachinnio in the long jump. Fourteen and fifteen year- old midgets must contend with the likes .of Leslie Rogers and Cheryl Paxton in the field events, and Mar- nee Buckles and Jeff Bells in the 400 metres. The under 18 years of age grouping has Rick Murphy’s shotput distances to beat. and Liz Srebrnjaks 400 metre times. Under 20 years of age, and the juniors must defeat Ontario Finalists Bill Milley in the shotput, and Dianne Diggins in the long jump. Larry Kimble, highly re- garded forward from Bob- caygeon was the marks- man, Kimble along with centreman Mike' Rowley and defenceman Wally Stankov were impressive newcomers. Of the 21 players dressed, including three goalies, only nine were returness as Coach Brimblecombe sat out a number of veterans. At least four of the teams this season are affiliated with Major “A” clubs and will be strengthened greatly by late cuts” by the time the gate opens and the race is to take a chance at beating. Challenge events start at 10 am while the runathon hour will commence at 10:30. Members of the RHAC are confident that the club re- cords will not be bested and as a result all transistor radios will be raffled off at the end of the morning’s competition. Citizens partici- pating in the challenge events, or sponsoring a run- ner will be eligible for this raffle, but a combination of poor shooting and good goalkeep- ing restricted them to only one tally, FOR MORE INFORMATION CALL: CHUCK MIDDLETON 884-4001 STEVE I Lobby of Richmond Hill Arena Sept. 21 & 22 from 3pm. to 6pm.

Recently 30 volunteers from the Rich- mond Hill Fire Department set up “toll gates” at the entrances to Hillcrest Mall, a little more than a mile from the location of one of the early toll gates. The voluntary “fees” they collected all went to the Muscular Dystrophy Association of Canada.
