Christmas with the family even a belated one Is something most people look forward We are no ex and our family hod our Christmas two weeks ago when we journeyed to Tim to assure all concerned that were getting along line Wc felt fine until we ran into notorious Northern weather and then ad mlttedly our affection or the north waned somewhat Northern Ontario has been in the grip a cold spelt since early December the few days spent at home the dipped to about degrees below zero at every ntRhl and during he day the thermometer never rose above degrees below zero We believe now that we are true southerners because believe us even though we saw some country skiers and thoroughly enjoying them selves we yearned almost desperately for something even remotely resembling warmth Ever the newspaperman we discovered two things regarding sports in Timmins that intrigued us would like to pass them along to Hal ton Hills readers An In termcdlate league has now been operating in the north for the post two years and in just that brief period of lime the calibre of hockey has im proved to such a degree that quite possibly they could provide a challenges for On tario honours The second thing that piqued our Interest was the by a local ports writer that quite possibly hockey could be dying out In the north In the Georgetown Denture Clinic NexttoPostotficeonNo 7 Highway GEORGETOWN

Intermediate Hockey League came into existence two years ago and its members Include Iroquois tails The league Is still experiencing some problems but for the moat part Is tunc lionmg well and should be going concern for some years to come Two teams T mm and are classed as Intermediate A clubs white the reran nlng squads are lower down on the In rung This is by no means a knock on their capabilities as won the T league Inst then captured All Ontario honours In their division We hod a chance to view games during our sojourn to the north and while the hockey displayed is en tertalnlng In my opinion the league participants arc still several years away from the partly with their southern counterparts They a rough brand of hockey and our main knock against them Is that at times the physical aspects of the game lake precedence over everything else Should the unexpected occur however and a northern team should challenge our southern Intermediate A favourites it might be good idea to keep some names In mind looks like they will cop league honours and they several outstanding players Ploying coach Jim Malr played several years In Notional Hockey League with the New York Islanders and the Vancouver Canucks and is a bruising defenceman Timmins gonltcnder Jim Young who Incidentally leads the league In this department ployed for the Fort Worth Wings John who was born In Kitchener toiled for Pennsylvania University while Bob got his hockey education while playing for Ihe University of Waterloo Warriors The Timmins bolstered by players from other teams in the league played host to the Finnish Notional team in early January and while they lost badly undoubtedly picked up the experience that will stand them in good stead as they and their league develops The charge that hockey could be dying out in the North stems we feel more from the local dlsati si action with the hockey played at the professional level than from any real sign of decoy In the northern area The north has produced a vast number of professional hockey NHL Bookie of the Year for two of the past three come from Timmins Don Lever of the Vancouver Vail of the Atlanta fan support for the game has been declining steady rate The main reason for this seems to be the same as that which plagued the Georgetown area until this year Until the Inception of the Northland Intermediate League the highest level that hockey buffs could view their favourites was Juvenile Then any promising player left for the south to hone his The calibre of play the Juvenile level has declined over the last few years in and this could likely be cited in explaining while fan support has decreased To get to the grass roots of the question wc talked to a good friend Dubois an outstanding Junior hockey player years ago and he claimed that hockey Is flourishing In the north but that people tastes have changed Gerry is a certified coach working In the Timmins Minor Hockey system and It is his belief that the discriminating fan is turned off by the style of hockey that Is displayed at the higher levels and more and more Is being turned on by the hockey played at the minor level Gerry team plays once a week and the fan turnout is considered exceptional With improving coaching techniques more stringent requirements coming into effect regarding selection of coaches the game of hockey can only improve not only in the north but whereever the sport is played No hockey is not declining In North the emphasis has merely shifted to a different area this Is where it should remain Complaints about brand of hockey played at higher levels usually fall on deaf ears and to a degree the scions of professional hockey are justified in ignoring the brick bats They to the whims the Almighty Fin and the end product Is a result of consumer demands Similarly it Is In the area of minor hockey that changes must come about A hockey player develops his feel for he game over many years While It true to say that his raw talent Is Improved through the various levels it also true to state that the style he shows at the professional level is a culmination of his many years of training If the finer aspects of game arc stressed throughout his learning period then they will come to the fore in his later years Its sad to say but fortunately over the last few years minor hockey systems have been dlrcly lacking in this area It Is here and only here that our National Game will Im Signs arc surfacing that finally hockey people arc accepting this basic fact and while it might take some time the new attitude will work its way to all levels When this occurs hockey will once again thrill the multitudes provide our youngsters with an enjoyable and exciting pastime lit Lit- VI Mr Dove Mather in Dale Carnegie
