THE PORT PERRY STAR ggg Authorized as Second Class Mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa. » $2.00 per year. won their first games of OMHA Play- downs on first night of "Minor Hockey Week", , . Right across this great Dominion No ours, hockey people of every classi- fication will be setting aside the week commencing February 4th as "Young Canada Hockey Week". (In Ontario "Minor Hockey Week"), The O.M.H.A. have been delegated the opportunity of directing Ontario's observance of this first minor hockey week, The ohjucts of Minor Hockey Week are to acquaint the Canadian public with the work being done by hockey men for the hoys of Canada; to ac- "quaint the people of Canada with the facts and figures connected with min- or hockey, and to point out to.our fellow Canadians the contribution that minor hockey is making to the de- velopment of better citizens for our great country. It has been suggested that local clubs or teams have a Minor Hockey Night during this week of February 4th to February 9th. The Local Port Perry Club have such a night planned, but it will take place on March 8th. That is the night the draw will be made on the tickets our youngsters are selling now. There will be door prizes given away that night also. Won't you support this worthy-cause by attending the rink on the night of March 8th and watching a couple of minor hockey games, plus some other added attractions; and "by buying some of the tickets the young boys -are selling for the hockey club? On Monday night last, Port Perry Bantams defeated Stouffville Bantams 3-1, while the Port Perry Midgets de- feated Uxbridge Midgets 4-3. . I think if you will-ask any person who saw these games they would tell you that these were two well played, hard fought games. It is very grati- fying to see the speed and effort these boys put into their playing. Wish "that more people were on hand to see these games. It would give the boys DN more incentive to play harder to Win, BANTAM--P. P. 3 -- Stouff.--1 12.35 Penalty--Stouff.--Malcolm 15.05 Goal--P. P.--R. Carnegie 26.00 Penalty--P.

We are of the opinion that our teams will advance further in the play offs this year, especially the Midgets. )) It was back in 1937-38 that Port Perry Midgets advanced to the finals in the All Ontario Championship and came out second best. Maybe this will be another great year. Won't you come 't and support the youngsters at their next home game? We believe we have a few future stars in our _ Club.

Youngest Master Breeder The top award that may be won by a Holstein breeder in Canada is the Master Breeder shield, and since the first shield was presented in 1930, only seventy-four breeders have quali- fied for it. To the many breeders who have spent a lifetime endeavouring to qualify as a Master Breeder, it comes as a shock to learn that Hugh Ormis- ton, Brooklin, has met the necessary requirements at the relatively tender age of thirty- four vears, Hugh has the added distinction of having bred | the animals which qualified him as a Master Breeder within a ten year period. The Master Breeder shield was re- ceived by Mr. Ormiston from the hand of Dr. C.D.
