Weekly Cag Cage: ; Report For the next few weeks--until the close of the Basketball Season, we will attempt to summarize the High- lights in cage competition as it applies to the Port Perry District. (Sport fans have a team to follow--whether it be in the boys division--Bantam, Junior, Senior H.8., Int. 'C' or in the girls class where there is Junior & Senior.) And for the many folk who see thous- ands watching a basketball game on TV--we know you would be more thrilled by watching your own boys and girls or your own pals playing the same game -- personally we feel some will be amazed to find just how well some of local lads perform a- gainst city teams. Highlighting the bright side of the cage report was Friday's H. S. games with Whitby, the three boys' teams being victorious -- Bantams 41-36; Juniors 41-18; Seniors 73-83 (this re- versing what Whitby boys did to the P.P.H.S. teams here last year)--the P.P.H.S. Sr. girls winning in convine- ing fashion 41-18; while the Whitby Juniors prevented a cledn sweep-- winning 26-10. Captains for the boys teams are-- for the Bantams, Don Free, Ass-Capt. Bert Brent; for the Juniors, Bill Corn- | ish, Ass-Capt., Bob Carnegie; for the Seniors, Jack Owen, Ass-Capt., Paul Peel. Academically, a student must quali- fy with no failures, 669% with 1 fail- ure, 609% with 2 failures and he or she is disqualified with 8 failures. In the boys games--for the Ban- tams, Don Free (23) and Jim Hunter (8) paced the attack; for the Juniors Cornish (10), Carnegie (6), Aird (8) led the attack where 11 out of 12 players tallied, and in the Séniors, Owen (29), Gibson (19) and Peel (14) were tops. Outstanding for the Sr. girls was Ruby Leask with 23. In Exhibition games, P.P.H.8. Jrs. | Boys dropped a 44-42 decision to Osh- awa Central on a last play fast break. With St. Peter's School the Juniors won 20-26, the Bantams lost 28-36, and the Seniors lost 63-72. IN LAKESHORE competition, the LIONS through a real scare into the powerful Peterboro Regents Saturday night tieing the game; well on in the contest but just when the Lions seem- ed destined to pull an upset, they lost Haugen (who was playing a fine game) on fouls, and later Harris and the team lacking bench strength faded to lose out 79-66. (Peterboro--classed as 'A', with a stronger team this year, went to the semi-finals in their class last year---and managed to down Os- goode Hall in Peterhoro' -- Osgoode winning by a wider margin on their home floor and going on 'to take the title.) This would speak well for the Lions in Int. 'C' play-downs but with Port Credit still Int. 'C' by their popu- lation in the last municipal directory, the LIONS will have to play their best and be at full strength to edge out the town which has been Port's stumbling block for' the past two seasons. Leading the Peterboro Regents in their last two victories over the Lions was Nichols who set two consecutive records notching 37 points Wed. night and 38 Sat, night. Jack Owen who '| counted 26 and 24 respectively was still leading the scoring race but it {8 most likely that Nicholls and Booth 'will make it tough, if they continue to role up the fantastic totals they have lately. Monday night P.P. Lions in a ra- ther rugged encounter with Oshawa Grads came out on the short end of a 89-68 tally. Top point getters for the Lions being Bob Storry (18), J. Griffen (17) and Bud Warriner (12). Port Flyers Drop First Overtime Game fo Petes Last Friday Jan. 8th, Port Flyers |: travelled to Peterboro via DeNure bus and at the end of regular time the teams were tied 4 all. - Due to injury during a practice Ken Fisher was not able to play and due to too many penalties the Flyers play- ed short handed most of the night, but at no time during the night did the Jr. Petes get more than one goal a- head. In the first period the Petes were the first to- score when Byrne on Me- Carthy pass at 5.08 and it was not till the 11.06 mark the Flyes evened it with a goal by Bishop, assisted by Comport and this held until just be- fore the period ended when Hook made the tally for the Fetes, assisted by Frizzelle at 17.62. Second period started fast and sev- eral times the Petes found it neces- sary to change on the fly for the Fly- ers were bearing down hard & at 11.20 Neil evened the score again for the Flyers when he bulged the twine mak- ing good on Dykstra's pass. But at the 16.05 mark the Petes were able to squeeze another past Hawe, Allan got the goal while, the assist went to Hook. In the third period Neil brought the score up even at 4.05 after reeciving the pass from Romanuk. The Petes then came back with another at 12.456 when Murphy banged it in and the assist went to Hook." But once again before the period ended the Flyers were able to tie it with a goal at 15.45 and so overtime resulted. In the over time period the Petes managed to get the only lucky goal, for it seemed to be just that. It was shot by Frizzelle from the blue line after being passed over to him by Dotuko, the shot went through Ed. Romanuk's legs in an upward 'climb, struck a player in the chest which caused it to turn and deflect down- ward which threw Ross off and be- fore he could change position it had spiraled into the net. The Petes play- ed defensive hockey until the time was up and so were able to win by a slim margin. Port had 4 penalties to Petes 1 In the first period and 6 to Petes 3 in the second and 1 to Petes 2 in the third while in the over time the Flyers got the only penalty. It was quite obvious to the writer and some others that a number of times "Sixty" Combs was not at all sure just what to do after he had blown the whistle until in- structions had been yelled to him from the Jr. Petes box. The next game here is with the Jr. Petes on Saturday, Jan. 16th. Don't miss it. See you there. IGA's Drop Third To Sutton After a four game series with the Sutton Greenshirts, the Port Perry IGA's came out on the short end by a three to one count. Port won the first game in Sutton but did not have the scoring punch in the last three games, which seemed to be needed to keep the Greenshirts at bay. Port will not meet Sytton again until the play-offs and the IGA's will be in there to show them that they were lucky on the last three counts. They had too many legs, sticks and goal posts. It was just the IGA's luck that every time they shot the puck seemed to hit one of these three. Ron Myles was the IGA's only gonl getter on Monday last, while Jones, Forfar, Pringle, Taylor and Learoyd tallied for Sutton. Starting on Friday night the IGA's will have a new coach, Don Mark who has been coaching the team has re- signed in order that he may go back and play hockey with the Club. Don has done a good job and deserves cre- dit for the work he has done with the team. Mr. Arnold Roach, who was originally the coach at the start of the season will take back his old job starting this Friday night. Arnold found it impossible to be with the team before Christmas but will be back on the job now until the end of the season. Lots of luck to Arnold and the IGA's, Hockey IGA's INT. 'C NEXT HOME GAME I8 TUES, JAN. 18TH MINDEN vs. PORT PERRY In Memorial Gardens Port Perry Game time 8.30 p.m. Manchester Community Credit Union The Manchester Community Credit Union is operating and has money to loan. Money is loaned in a credit union for useful and practical pur- poses, to anyone who is honest and a good citizen, You do not need any security other than your good charac- ter to borrow money from your. credit union unless your loan is of major proportions... Your friends will not mind co-signing your 'loan either be- cause your loan will be insured and brings no risk to a co-signer in case of death or disability on loans up to a maximum of ten thousand dollars. If you contemplate buying some- thing for your home using time pay- ment plan you will find that borrow- ing from the Credit Union will cost you about half the usual interest and give you added security as well. You will be doing business with yourself and when credit unions get experien- ced they give back at the end of each vear a portion of the interest paid to the people who paid it. A credit union is a co-operative, no one, regardless of how much or how little he has invested in the credit union has any more than one vote. It is democratic and holds a high de- gree of security and advantage for every man, woman and child in this area. Ask about it through the Port Perry Star or the president, Robert Walker of Port Perry, or write to the Manchester Community Credit Union, Myrtle, Ontario and Mr. Edgar Heron the secretary will see that you get information, Ontario County Field Crops Worth $2,265,400 TOTAL FOR _ DURHAM COUNTY REPORTED AS $4,015,000 According to a report from the sta- tistical branch of the Ontario Dept. of Agriculture the total value of field crops: in Ontario county in 1964 a- mounted to $6,265,400.
