The Senior Girls Basketball Team played Both of our groups are in constant need of funds beyond the normal resources and I sincerely hope that you each and everyone will be most generous in supporting two fine causes. Problem This is our second annual Skatathon and one of the major problems has been what type of prize structure to have for the skaters. There is no easy answer for this particular problem. This is an approved fund raising situation on behalf of the Richmond Hill Hockey Association and the York County Association for the Mentally Retarded. One method â€" we used it last year â€" was three prizes for the most pledges collected. We were criticized for this from many quarters. It’s up to you Whether you buy these bars but please A rgmegnbey, they are not for local 'minodr hockey. Skatathon Now your doors are going to be knocked on by some 600 youngsters â€" not all at the same door, I hope â€" asking for your support in our Skatathon. We have no such sponsor and have not endorsed such a sale. As you may recall, our Ladies’ Auxiliary licenses all fund raising for us and a thing like this upsets them considerably. Apparently they are involved with an out-of- town Ford dealer as a sponsor and claim to be raising money for the Richmond Hill Hockey Association. Well they are not! By Bob Reeves RICHMOND HILL â€" I was rather upset today to learn that once again some minor hockey group is selling chocolate bars in The Hill. Sucksblood Able to withstand extremely long periods of starvation, the maih food of the eel is undoubtedly fish. Downstream movement of the new adult parasites takes place during the month of April and, to a lesser extent, during the preceding winter. This process, once believed to take a maximum of four years, will take up to seven years, as work in the Great Lakes region has established. These larvae, called Ammocoebe, burrow into the mud and remain there until they have developed into mature lamprey eels. Eggs hatch in about thirteen to fourteen days, depending on the water temperature. After hatching. the larvae leave the nest in about 'two days. RICHMOND HILL â€" Die After completion of the spawning, females drop downstream from the nest to soon die. Spent males may cling to the nest for a few days before doing the same. The act of spawning can take between sixteen hours and {our days, with egg production of 34,000 to 110,000. However, some lamprey will spawn as late as July and in water temperatures as high as seventy-six degrees. Easy prey Originally a salt-water species, it came up the St. Lawrence Canal into Lake Ontario. Later, with com- pletion of the Welland Canal, the lamprey found the fishes of the Great Lakes easy prey. Spawn in spring Sea lampreys spawn in the spring. Adults congregate in small streams during late winter with the males building the nests. The females follow about four days later, but egg- laying begins about mid June or when the water reaches about fifty- two degrees. The real killer is the imported sea lamprey. Perhaps the word ‘im- ported‘ is not quite correct as the eel made its own way into our fresh- water lakes. THORNHILL â€" Australia has its problem with rabbits, Central America has its killer bees, and we have the lamprey eel. Ontario alvslays had a species of lamprey but this was the harmless brook lamprey. By Janet Robbins Hill juniors tie O-O It’s the Iflingll Help A further problem is showing up with our Minor Atoms ‘A’ team. They are somewhat under strength at this time. So if there are any other players in that age group John Handbury and Jim Croke won their first three matches before On Oct. 7, three R.H.H.S. students competed in the A11- Ontario Tennis Tour- nament. Vicki Robinson, in the Senior Girls Singles, won her first match before losing in the quarter finals. At this time we still need more registrations to fill out two teams. The forms are at Bob‘s Skate Shop so come on girls, register this week so these teams will be complete. The Junior Girls Basketball Team also won their game against Langstaff on Oct. 12. the score being 30-22. Girls' hockey Considerable space was given in “The Liberal” two weeks ago searching for more registrations for girls‘ hockey. Since that time we have had suf- ficient registrations to form one junior team and very nearly two. Door knocking We are looking for volume and' we believe this is the best method possible. So once again when someone comes knocking on the door â€" open the door and let them in and please be generous. At a recent Board of Directors‘ meeting a subcommittee was ap- pointed to decide on a prize structure and they approved the one already mentioned. Another method is no prizes at all. The argument being that the kids are raising funds to help themselves. We would be criticized for this as well. A third method is a prize for everyone based on the amount of money collected and turned in. We will be criticized for this. because that's what we are doing. minor hill hockey Once we had the best fishing water anywhere. Then we built a seaway. Now we have a sewer for our wastes and sea lampreys. @th of the fish population in the v.33! Lakes, expecially of the Laketrout in Lake Ontario. Experts disagree as to the length of time an eel will feed on his host. Some claim that the eel drops off after several hundred hours while others say that it remains until one of them dies. No matter how long it takes, the lamprey is resppnsiblefor a 1965 »Of Meet the thing ..... it’s an eel For this action the lamprey is well equipped. A fluid called Lamphredin is secreted by the eel during the feeding to prevent the clotting of the fish‘s blood. A second fluid produced by the lamprey breaks down the muscle tissue. He attaches himself by means of a suction type mouth. The teeth of the tongue rasp a hole into the skin of the host and its body fluids and blood are consumed. Eats long time Jtroilblozer? l.

For the past three years Stewart House has emerged victorious but this year they were defeated by Harrison House. Harrison was followed by Stewart, then Richmond and Miles. third. House League or OMHA â€" it doesn‘t matter. Both play well ano competively and they need your vocal support. So why not come out to the arena â€" back up the kids and enjoy some Happy Hockey. These affairs are always a lot of fun. Tickets are available from any of the coaches, managers, and parents so get in touch with them and have two great evenings. This is a most im- portant function of minor hockey and really requires four or five responsible people to operate the system ef- fectively. If you can help call me at 884-8868 or John Mulvihill at 884-3565. Dances There are two big hockey dances coming up in the next month. The first is the Peewee dance Nov. 6 and the second is the Midget dance Nov. 30. V Coach John Pyaft needs help so come on out and give him your talents. We have a great need for some mature people to volunteer their time to help with time-keeping for our OMHA games on Monday, Friday and Saturday evenings along with Sundays. Our OMHA teams have been busy with try-outs and exhibition games and are facing the opening of their schedules, probably one Oct. 25. Most teams are set or close to it and we are all looking for- ward to a fine season. Our House League is well under way and running quite well. Registration in general is up over last year so each group should be mo ,L competitive.
