They played their first game in Sunderland last Saturday & came out on top by a 11 - 3 count. The first game of the season at home was played this past Tuesday evening with Sunderland paying a return visit. The Bulldozers took this one 8 - 3.

D. Hep- 'ditch in a letter to the Village Council referring to section 877, sub section 70 of the Municipal Act, and the fact that the 10 year abatement period now has lapsed, suggest the branch is not entitled to this abatement any longer.

There are two new faces on this veay's team, Don Gibson and Bob Doner, both local boys, who will be a big help to the team. A good turnout of faithful followers were on hand for the first home game but the boys will need all the support we can give them, so let's get behind our champions this season and maybe we will be able to keep the trophy in Port Perry for another year. The next home game will be on Tuesday, November 22nd The locals have two away games before this, they travel to Keswick this Friday for an 8.30 game and then to Uxbridge on Monday for an 8.16 game.
