Rinks not returning were skipped or entered by Elgin Barrow, Warren Davey, Art Gibson and Jack Rumney. Jack Shropshire lost his first Thomhill so Frank Wood took over the rink and received excellent sup- port from Derek and Jason Pulschinski and Cliff Webb to qualify for the finals. Jack Shropshire and his rink of Jim Anderson, Gerry Morlock and Stan Wilkinson won two games but still had enough points to curl in the cham- pionship event. The Legion are at Aurora Thursday and in Newmarket Friday and are at home Sunday to Orillia. All concerned with the planning of the recent RHHA Midget dance wish to express sincere ap- preciation to everyone who contributed in any way to its success. Richmond Hill goals came from Zenio Ferrone, Randy Hughes- Guest, Roy Russell and Randy Martin. Assists went to John Peden, Ron Abernathy, Dave Forster and Steve Bishop. Richmond Hill goalie Mike Doyle actually held the juveniles in this game stopping many play Sunday as the Legion hosted Thornhill and won by 6-3. Blair Lewis put his team ahead with only 52 seconds left in the first period with Alan Clark and Stan Norman drawing assists. Thornhill controlled play throughout the second and scored three times. The third period was all Richmond Hill as the boys outplayed and outscored their opponents five goals to zip. Close game Back in Richmond Hill the following Sunday the Arkay team squeaked by two assists with the others going to Forster, Abernathy, and Rick Girard. a ’much ‘improved Newmarket team by 4-3. Legion scorers were: Scott Taylor from Steve Madden; Reiner Plesch- berger from Greg Walton; Tom Peden from Alan Clark; Steve Madden from Danny Girard and Pete Halliday; Stan Norman unassisted.

Newmarket breakaways. Oh, oh In a rather lack-luster performance in Union- ville last Thursday the juveniles were stunned 1- 0 by a tough checking Unionville squad. hill curling column Of course this is a service not all operators provide. Later on in the season I will give you a complete list of the operators on Lake Temagami and other good areas. Lake Simcoe is still the main attraction for the ice fisherman. I suggest, however. that you make certain that your favorite hutâ€" operator is still in business, since the recent bad seasons have forced many to move to greener pastures. Huts are available only from the camps, and customers who stay at the camp naturally get first choice. The huts are usually clean and warm with bait and tackle supplied. No heated hut The operator I usually fish with takes me to a top spot on his snowmobile, drills a few holes in the open ice, builds a w_arm fire on shore and proceeds to get lunch ready. I can see no evidence that fishing will improve this year. so unless you are just looking for an excuse for a winter outing, I suggest you look around for a new spot. Perch, herring énd smely are plentiful, but Whitefish and lake trout could be few and far between. This is a refre§hing change From sitting in a heated hut, especially if it is arcrisp sunny day. An early start not only gives you enough time to get the gear in working order. but you can use the time to explore the best fishing spots and check out what facilities, such as heated huts. are available. Perhaps it's a little early for iceâ€" fishing, but I feel that, as in hunting, the fellow who is prepared has the most success. I have fished this lake for Whitefish and lake trout with ex- cellent success. A few lodges remain open all year round to cater to the ice fisherman. Temagami Lake Temagami cannot take the pressure that Lake Simcoe can, but, because of the distance, fewer fishermen will head up there. If walleer is your bag, I suggest Ice fishing time? Lake Simcoe In the second event. Barry Maine of Bayview played Bud Palmer of Thornhill. Fred Pope of Boulevard and Jack Bryans of Brampton Roger Tomenson of Granite and Bill Watson of Donalda were in the first event finals. while Tony Jourdain of Thor- nhill and Ray McTavish of Unionville played in the consolation event. consolation event JUNIOR R SKI PROGRAM THORNHILL AREA ' RECREATION COMMITTEE Sunday 9 am. - 12 Noon (Lesson at 10 am.)

However, as I didn‘t get skunked there last year, I will try again this winter. the Magnetawan River on Georgian Bay. Having fished this river for the first time last year, I‘ve never had better walleye fishing. The best fishing is right on the river in the town of Britt. There is supposed to be an operator on the river. but I prefer to fish in the open. Warm clothing, a snowmobile suit and good warm boots give you all the comfort of a hut. plus fresh air. If you fish in clear water four feet up from the bottom, you can use a dark minnow such as a chub, but fishing on a muddy bottom definitely calls for an emerald shiner. Walleye prefer a single line with two hooks, while lake trout usually are taken by jigging with a handline and a special ice-fishing lure. Bait can differ also. I have found that just MINNOWS are not enough for most areas, nor is the tackle and methods one is used to using. If you fished only Simcoe in the past, you will have to adopt a few new methods. For Whitefish you must use spreader-type equipment. The beginner will find next week‘s column a helpful guide in tackle, methods and even bait. Then as the season progresses. I will give you some reports on a few new spots that I plan to try. Usually fishing with friends. we drill a series of holes across the river reaching all the different depths. Sooner or later one of us hits the perfect fishing hole. Something you can‘t do from a hut. «ltroilblozerr‘ Limited number of registrations OUTDOORS WITH Alex Eberspaecher played in the consolation event. Oh well Richmond Hill rinks never really do too well on the ice but they sure make up for it in other areas of the club.
