Big Day it was a big day all around for area skaters as Marie- Ellen and Bernard Souche of Thornhill won the junior competitions: and Keith Swindlehurst of Richmond Hill and Judie Jeffcott of Scarboro the victory in the dancing competition. He and his 19-yearold partner Candy Jones had just achieved a dream by winning the senior pairs competition in an "upset" win over favored Kathy Hutchins and Jamie McGrigor of Cambridge who were last year’s runner- ups behind Sandra and Val Bezic. The Bezics received an automatic berth on the Canadian team due to being unable to compete because of injuries.

He Was right. They had. “You could just say it was a really good day for us," said Fraser. “It was close after the compulsory event, really close. We knew we had to skate a perfect following program if we were going to have a chance to beat Kathy and Jamie.

Also it’s a fact that you have to be seen a lot by the judges. Then they remember you. That helps a lot. “We wanted to make that team in the worst way,” said Donald. “1 just hope Bezic can maintain his fifth place standings in the world so the three of us will qualify for the Olympics in 1976. We want to be in that one." World Championships The world championships will be held in Denver this year and Donald and Candy head for there to “get ac- climatized” starting next Sunday.

The fight was robust but brief and fairly even but the goals were a different story. The game was between York Regional Police and OPP District 5 at Bond Lake Arena. Their undefeated string started with an opening game 6-0 win over Peel Regional Police, an 8-3 conquest of the same OPP team and a 6-3 verdict over Metro 52 Division. Two goals in the last four minutes to break a scoreless tie and a swin ing-from-the- heels fight etween two policemen highlighted a hockey game Thursday night of last week. York Region got both of them and skated off with a 2- 0 victory, their fourth straight of the early Southern Ontario Police Hockey League season. That‘s when things started to happen. In every way including the fight. Regional Police’s burly defenceman Gord Mason started the bell tolling for the provincial police as he carried up ice, flipped the puck to Earl Hook as he crossed the blueline. Hook thenrelayed it back to Paul Coghill who drifted a low shot which found the mark behind Goalie Roger Wilson. “That was easily our toughest game of the season to date,” commented Regional Coach Mel Vail. That it was as the OPP squad battled York Regional to a scoreless tie first two periods and 16 minutes into the final one. It was the same Mr. Coghill who indulged in fisticuffs with OPP’s Jim Fairfield a few minutes later and the air was full of sound and fury as the two policemen battled it out. A lot of punches were thrown but no one appeared to be damaged on being pried apart. The York Regional team stick being whacked down on it.
