TT oT 18-- PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, Sept. 28, 1977 Sports Rally of 40 Jaguars passing through area | There will be a car rally passing through Prince Albert and Port Perry this Saturday. Not just an ordin- ary rally, but bne with a notable difference. Between 30-45 of the sleek- est automobiles on four wheels will pass through the area on their way to the Haliburton country, and will be making a brief stop over along the way. The cars are Jaguars. It is all part of the Ontario Jaguar Owner's Association Fall Rally held each year, and this year they have chosen the home of Pat Morrow, Prince Albert as a check point and coffee break stop. The cars range in age from the 1940 vintage to present and have a top dollar value of $27,000. After a brief stay at Mr. Morrow's home, situated be- side the golf course, the cars will proceed north along Simcoe Street into Port Perry. They will then drive along Queen St. to Lilla FE where they will turn north , * once again and head out of town. Mr. Morrow told the Star that if anyone is interested in seeing the cars, they are welcome to inspect them when the drivers have stopp- ed at his home. The Jaguars should start arriving at about 10:15 a.m. H.S. golfers place third Port Perry High School placed third out of twelve schools in the Lake Ontario Secondary School Athletic Association golf tournament held September 21 at the Thunderbird course. It was a good showing for the team, which has never finished higher than fourth place in this tournament. The future looks good for next year since four out of the five golfers will remain with the team. The team members are George Burnett, Tim Thompson, Mike McQuade, Ian Griffen and Kevin Harri- son. e Jackets Baldwin Sales TROPHIES ~ @ Custom Made Trophies e Creative Engraving e Presentation Gifts e Award Ribbons 34 TORONTO STREET BOX 610- UXBRIDGE - ONTARIO - LOC IKO PHONE 416-852-3453 ® Crests OHA J.C Exhibition Game PORT HOPE. PANTHERS PORT P PERRY FLAMINGOS - Sunday, Oct. 2-8 pan. | NEW ARENA ADULTS *1.00 STUDENTS: 50* ... Approximately $3,500. was raised by Port Perry Minor Hockey and Figure Skating Clubs last Saturday at their annual Skate-a-thon. Although not as many turned out this year, about 150 people ranging in age from 5 to 60 years helped make the fund-raising skate a success. Face protectors save players' eyes, teeth Eleven amateur hockey players were medically blinded last year compared with 42 during the season, 1974-75, according to Dr. Tom Pashby, a- Toronto and Ophthalmologist member of the Canadian Standards Association (CSA). This accounts for a reduction of 75 percent, -while overall eye injuries decreased by 65 percent from 253 to 88 reported cases, Dr. Pashby attributes the decrease to the Canadian Amateur Hockey Associa- tion's (CAHA) stricter rules on high sticking and the increasing use of face pro- tectors. He is a member of CSA's Technical Committee! on Protective Equipment for Hockey and Lacrosse Players which recently published a standard on eye and teeth protectors for hockey forwards and de- fencemen. CSA is now test- ing face masks to the stan- dard and certified protec- tors should' begin to appear on the marketplace this winter. The protectors must en- 'dure torture tests at CSA's Rexdale, Ontario labora- tories before certification is granted. The masks will be cooked to a temperature. of -20C and then a puck, with the force of 60 foot pounds, will crash down on the pro- tector. If the protector cracks, it fails the test. Optical tests will also be carried out to ensure that players can see adequately when wearing the masks. The standard covers both clear plastic and mesh pro- tectors, and the spaces in the mesh protectors must be sufficiently small so that the blade of a hockey stick can- not penetrate the mask. "I think it's very impor- tant that CSA has a standard to measure these products in order to keep junk off the marketplace," explains Dr. Pashby. '""There have been inadequate wire mesh pro-- tectors with openings large enough to allow a stick through, CSA certification will also give the CAHA a reason to make the wearing of CSA certified protectors mandatory." Several hockey leagues, such as the Ontario Minor Hockey Association have already made face protectors man- datory, which Dr. Pashby believes has led to the dra- matic- decrease in hockey eye injuries. #!*There's been 300,000 face protectors sold and. 900,000. amateur players if Canada, which means that Ggie third 'of all the players wear- £8 masks, but many aren't. instance, in the 7475 season, most ok injuries re In: © ON-CAR WHEEL BALANCING © MINOR REPAIRS & TUNE-UPS GAS Accepted Credit Cards. pL MASTER CHARGE _TEXACO - - CHARGEX Sunday | 10 a8. 15 9:00 p.m. TAYLOR'S TEXACO Comer of Union & 7A Hwy.
