Minor Midgets Chalk Up 2 Wins Against Bay Ridges and Markham On Saturday, Nov. 16, Bow- manville's Constitution fnsur- ance Minor Midgets met Markham here and came up with a well earned victory as Tim Dyck played a good game in the net to help Bowmanville win 6 to 5 Scoring was opended b Frank Leach with an individ- ual effort which resulted in a well executed play on the Markham net to ive Bow- manville a 1-0 lea dat the 21 second mark of the 1st period.

The host club arranges for accommodation for the com- petitors, meals and trans por- tation for the officials, publici- ty for the event, ticket sales and a myriad of other details. Despite the fact that figure skating gets little or no public funding, Canada bas a very respectable record in interna- tional competitions. Since 1948 when Barbara Ann Scott was Olympic Gold Medalist until last year when Karen Mag- nussen won the tadies' Sin- gles event in the Worlds, Canada bas maintained her tradition of excellence. As Canadians, we owe a vote of thanks to the hard working people like Jim Allen and club president Bob Armstrong who put on these championships. Our young skaters thus have a forum to compete against themselves and each other in preparation for world class competitions. goal, Ed Visser - one goal and Pete Nemisz with one goal.

Bowmanville opened the scoring on a goal by Frank Leach assisted by Jerry Leddy as this pair of hockey players out bustled their oppositions and beat them to the puck to earn the goal. The second goal scored by Jerry Leddy who again was right on top of the play came at the 7 min. 38 sec. mark of the first period, and the assist i by defenceman Mark Starkey was also well earned as he layed steadily on the blue ine and kept Ridges hemmed in their own end. The third goal came at 6 min. 25 sec. of the 2nd period on goal by Eddy Gruyters assisted by Russell Green- ham, This goal came as a result of hard work and not lettin up, which is Green- hams and Gruyters' style and suits their ability to han die the puck and skate. Our fourth goal at il min. 37 sec. of the same period by Jerry Leddy unassisted shows what determination and hard work will result in. The final Bowmanville goal at 3 min. 44 sec. of the third period came off the stick of Jerry Johnston who seems never to tire no matter how hard or rough the ganye gets. Assists on the goal were Jerry Leddy and Frank Leach. Bay Ridges only goal came at 4 min. 22 sec. on a pile up in front of Bowmanvi le's net which got by Dean Scott who was outstanding in goal the whole game.

The top four skaters in each of the qualifying events at the sectionals wili skate in the divisional championships. As Mr. Jim Allen, hampionship Chairman points out, "This is probably the oniy major competition that couid be held in this area. "Winners in Oshawa will go on to the Canadians to be held in Quebec City January 29-Febr- ary 2. The sectional competition for our area will be held Dec. 6-8 in Brockville. Oshawa Skating Club is sending about 20 skaters to that event. Club Professional, Gordon Crossland, feels that being host club for the divisionals will be very good for the Oshawa skaters. Although they will not be staging a carnival this year, the inspira- tion of meeting and watching some of the best Canadian skaters will more than com- pensate. Most of the 550 members of the club will be involved as pages or runners, etc., helping make the compe- Men's Major either, because our friendly sales staff can be so helpful.
