and a few extra hardy souls it was nohing unusual to see jne man coaching several teams another refereenig for the entire morning ajjd more often than not he others doubling as time keep iis managers etc with shift work he rule seldom were there more than four or five people to do everything at one mornings scr tes of games we have purposely repeated this old history as it s sure to be la in lied because we are fed up with hearing slighting remarks of he nun who started and babied the whole project when it was in its mfanrv ips verv well for a man to say uh tlotfsn t o ind so and so toini out to help i f cles in the way of a group of pub lic spirited citizens trying to oper ate a grossly inadequate and aij- chaic building to see that everyone gets a certain amount of use of the place certainly it would be just dandy if we could have all the ice time that was wanted but not too feasible because there are other people in the community in need of the arena too arena board members have been remark ably fair in giving oul ice time and indeed we think the chairman bud hill agrees as far as hockev is concerned but there again we suspect the stones ou hear of ice time being refused stem from some unauthorized party or part tes demanding time of the board members or arena caretaker and when they are quite rightly re fused making a production out of it if anj tvpe of arrangements were left to the chairman or sec retary there would be few if an difficulties in this respect we should sa right hire that bud and frank have tnid to do a real job and sometimes under prettv provokin

saturday kid ho ckey the banquets the trophies sweaters and no other typs of ttryanhwd hocksy and weve got a hunch that the great good sense of the majority of our members will prevail and this will continue for ones information last years hockey expenditures ran to the amount of 756 all accounted for in the auditors report and an amount of money well spent but by the same token a fairly consid erable amount we might add we would suggest to any that before you decide that the legion is not spending the required amount of money just check on how much it would cost to equip several teams with sweaters thirdly the occasional outburst about the arena board not giving enough ice time all the legion has cvee wanted was their satur day morning ice time plus any iorsei ine reuiai spare ice time
