PORT Ee "by Bill Fitsell HIGHLIGHTS FEW IN FIFTY-TWO?Y Nineteen. hundred and fifty-two may not go down in the mythical ricord books as an outstanding one as far as sports go but it willlong be remembered for a. 'number of 'events most of which happened in * the last half of the year, 'And one of the biggest cheers foryupints happenings in these parts is just going up -with the announce ment that the Fabulous Fat Man, none other than Toronto's Turk: Broda, has come. to terms with Reg' Moorhead and the local hockey club and will teach local minor pucksters for three hours each Saturday. This is a big break for Port Perry youngsters bétween 12 and 18 ds the » ¢x-Toronto custodian, who is now. coaching Weston Junior "B" Dukes,' _is not only the most popular Leaf to ever perform for Conny Smythe but one who has watched NHL greats in action from the best vantage point, If the genial Turkey can depart just a little of his wealth of hockey know-how here, Port Perry's lads will be most fortunate and the hockey club's money well spent. All of which means there's big things ahead--but. let's take a quick glimpse back at 19562. The . ORHA senior redshirts didn't win any championship but they did give ~ a good account of themselves in Tri-County group play and should be headed for another top season. In baseball a band of youngsters and vets made local fans forget' about the dismal disappearance of the T.C.L. Chiefs in the playoffs as Ross McLean's team finished third in their group and went on to win the North Durham League crown. Going back further we find another surprising team in PPHS' great Junior cage team which went along way before coming up against . a superior squad. In track and field the collegians had their best year in some time as they placed second -in the Oshawa-Shamrock meet and they missed by one point from taking the Inter-School championship. No, Port Perry teams didn't win any crowns but active participation in baseball, hockey, basketball, track, badminton and bowling made the village one of the livelier in the provinge. NATURAL ICE STOPS HOCKEY OPENER, NATURALLY. ..Jack Frost's late arrival or his absence saved the boys from the ong trip to open'the ORHA senior season in Sutton on Boxing Day and also spoiled the planned -lid-lifter hére last night (Tuesday) against Woodville . . . Manager e Cawker had about a dozen stalwarts out for first drill Monday night but lack of frost under the thin surface cut it short: after 20 minutes or so as the: ice chipped up 'and the boys hit the asphalt floor .., Friday night is 'the next scheduled game with Port Perry (no nickname) playing in Little Britain,-which should give the lads a chance to workout at least once on Bev Kent's surface. Next Tuesday the club hits for Cannington and then on Thursday, Jan. 8, winter should be here along with Sutton Greenshirts , Bruce Clayton, of Woodville, secretary of the T.C. puck loop, was to the executive of the Ontario Rural Hockey Associa: tion last week. . Glen VanCamp was in the: line-up for Lindsay over the week- nd as the northerners-edged the Vics of Kingston, but we hear the Blackstock blucliners wants his release badly . . ... Brooklin Bantams trimmed Stouffville 5-3 recently and locals Cornish and Carnegie were in the line-ups .... The York County: ORHA group, which includes Markham, Stouffville, Agincourt, Brougham, ete., has. arranged the play-off schedules already. The first and third and -second and fourth teams will meet. in home and home, goals to count semi-finals with the winners clashing in a best of three series for the group championship and the new John Lunau Trophy . --club- resume play in Claremont next week . . .

The whole pageant was perfectly planned and well carried manner. All' present gained a deeper sense of the real meaning of Christ- mas and all were proud of our young people who will soon be the leaders in our community. Great credit is due ing the young people. Rev. Mr. Wallace came to the plat- form and gave a short message and Mr. and Mrs, Donald: McKinnon and tamily of Lucknow, visited with Mr. and Mrs. Morley Bruce this week.

"It gets larger every year," said Mr. Hull in reporting increase mailing of Christmas cards and parcels and post- age sales, The Monday before Christmas was the biggest day for the staff with~ 563 bags of mail received. .| During the seasonal rush four to five bags of mail were despatched. Over 70,000: two cent postage stamps were period. Handled Over Yule sold during the pre. #Christinas mailing. The citizens set a new record for Christmas cards by pushing 16,000 through into the letter baskets on one day. The number of parcels mailed to local destinations showed an increase but only half the usual-number of par- cels for overseas were sent, said Mr. Hull. This drop in parcels overseas was due to the increased costs set by the British Government, ss Local citizens are apparently be- coming educated to mailing their cards and parcels early. "They were at least three days ahead this year," states Mr. Hull. "This helped us out a great deal . .. and we appreciate this_very-much." A full time staff of four was main- tained through -the Christmas rush. Mr. Hull and son Bruce, the assitant postmaster were aided by Mrs, Hull and Herb, Buckland, of the part-time staff. -------- vy ¢ OPEN ONNEW YEAR'S DAY MAKE YOU RESERVATIONS EARLY. ~ IN THE NEW YEAR STORE HOURS will be from 8 a.m, until 12 p.m. === RESTAURANT ~~ Blenheim, Bolton, : Peterborough, | Parry Sound, Paris, i : . 0-M-H-A Entries One of the most popular moves ever made by the O.M.H.A. was inaugura- tion of the accident insurance plan whereby players are covered up to $260 for one dollar per. person per season, : "Organization of the new series, ten- tatively known as the A-minor series, also proving very :popular, and is making possible a general re-classi- fication of teams all down the list.
