byDaveDodds Desmond Acton Villa A were idle this week while Villa was beaten at home to Bracken Villa A return to action tonight Wednesday as travel to Georgetown to meet the league leading Eagles Villa A have had a disappointing year so far and they remain in sixth place in the standings with only four points from six games With the players Gemini comment on why no team merger Doreen Uranick and George Gktman of Acton finished first In their category and second overall In at Prospect Park in ilflHI IbtamMd their SatarrfaywUch was a tag sac a team Feaajey and MeUada DaB McDonald and mayor Pete Pommy were Carls Ttaaaat Km Brace BUI were on to Men Biathlon held on Park The Georgetown Gemini issued the following press release on the subject of merger with the Acton Sabres We feel that now is the time to clear up the matter of merger or no merger At no tune did the Executive of the Georgetown Hockey Club express the desire to merge with the Acton Sabres The origin of the merger idea seems to be Georgetown Independent reporter Robin Inscoe who at the end of the 197980 and 198081 seasons argued for this to happen and who tried quite hard to get the two talking merger However at that time there was no interest by either group The first positive move was made near the end of the 1981B2 season when the same Acton Executive member approached both Bob Mc Candles Sr president and Bob Girdwood past president during games in Acton Not long after the season ended Coach Jules Russian brought up the subject with during a talk in his office At this point it was strictly one executive member to another without the full Executive bong advised and Girdwood decided that since trie Annual Meeting of the full Gemini membership was close that the subject should be brought up then and It was The members of the local press were present at that time and will recall that the direction from the membership was to proceed in with Acton In a positive manner We believe that this was After several meetings with Acton the pro and con a were brought back to a meeting of the full Georgetown Executive and they decided that a merger for 198283 was out Acton was notified by phone the same evening Three factors stood out in the de cision 1 Both teams had sent In their 198283cntryfeestolhcOHA this one season both clubs were assured that no other Junior club could start up in their rink However as far as the A was concerned either Acton or Georgetown would be operating not both or a combined team If the merged teams continued in 198384 it was quite conceivable that the A would place a Junior dub In the nonoperating rink Which Town was prepared to take that chance Neither had been settled and the O A notified that home base was for arguments sake Acton and Georgetown was not operating then only Acton affiliated players Midgets Juveniles etc would be available to the merged team The Georgetown Junior Hockey Clubs charter states that it was founded to provide another level of hockey to Georgetown boys Time was running out Points 1 and above might have been taken to the O A and a favourable written ruling been received However it would take weeks for that to happen and items such as finding a Coach selling program ads searching or sponsors has to start in mid May or not get done property We will continue talking to Acton and the 0 H A however it is for the 198384 season they have coach Dave Lewis was expecting them to do much better If they can start to play better as a team they would start scoring more goals and become very difficult to beat as they have lost some close decisions Villa B played a strong game in losing to Bracken as they only had eight players for three quarters of the game and finished with only nine Acton was leading at the half but Bracken scored three goals In the second hair the last on penalty kick to win the game Acton goalkeeper Mike Mason with a strong wind at his back scored a goal as it bounced over the Bracken keeper became out to the edge of the penalty box to try to pick it up Other scorers for Acton were Dave Harold Koinlcr and Bob Little Acton Is at home ton ght Wednesday loAJax Game time Is m League
