the acton free press wednesday october 8 1 969 ttetej muf quetej itwworid of apott bydemsglbbora a generous off by learn sponsor beardmote and co has encouraged the local intermediate hockey executive to go ahead with plana to keep acton tanner in the oha for at least another the executive consisting of i few energetic tools interested in keeping miermedjale hockey ebve in actor had encountered nothing hut obstacle in their efforts until last week in the first place a disappointing season at the gate last year caused the team to finish in the red financially and lift then no money with which to urt thl yea afavdattngdancelnsepiensbef htdjuslclesreduputtyest debts when the oha announced their decitloci to revert to the old system of using onerefera and two linesman in intermediate game this year thus raising the probable cost of officials to the home club from i0 lo approximately woagsme perhaps the biggest financial obstacle presented ittelf when i acton board of parka management and recreation committee decided to charge the club a flat tale of 112 n hour for ice rental this year instead of maintaining the 6040 gate split airangement that has existed bt past year the actual change in financial arrangement wtj not nearly at big a blow to the future of intermediate hockey in acton u was the time at which it occurred the board in stating reasons for the change pointed out the i fact that on account of unusually low gate at intermediate game i last winter tanner paid an average of about 4 an hour for ice on i the 6040 gate split agreement mo1 member fell that the tanner i should bt paying at least the same hourly rale as the industrial i hockey league the industrial league paid ji2 an hour last year i agree that it teem a liltle ridiculous for the intermediate hockey club to be paying only 14 an hour for ice when tome minor hockey teams even though they are subsidized to some extent by the board are still paying 7s0 and 10 an hour however i feel there are reason why the 6040 gate tpllt agreement should have been maintained at least for this season last winter the team experienced consistently low gates for the first time since intermediate hockey returned to town in the eaily sixties main season for the low gates was the team disappointing showing in their group and their consequent failure to make the playoffs up until last season however the tanners always iced a contending hockey team a team that represented the town of acton well in hockey circle around the province local inteiest in the team wai high and good crowds attended the friday night home game in these years on the basis of the 6040 gale split agreement it i quite probably that thay were paying an average of close to s 1 2 an hour for ice i am not prepared to uy that the board had no valid reason for discontinuing the 6040 gate split agrewenl nor am i accusing them of a kick them when theyre down policy i simply feel that prospects of acton having a contending team and attracting reasonably good crowds are much better now than they were at this time list year when tannet lost nine player to the new georgetown entry the executive have managed to sign ruts bowman who has had previous intermediate coaching experience with both the milton merchants and georgetown raiders the play of several homebrew rookies who played with the team last year should improve and the executive reports that chance of lining up a few top notch impart are very good with a contending team on the see this year gate receipt would be bound to increase and theres alway the possibility that both the intermediate hockey club and the board could benefit from an extremely good year the series of all lenes begins saturday in baltimore when the hometown oriole host the miracle mets of
