The curling team .is Kings take advantage of helpless foes Huntsville Huskies might just as well have stayed at home Saturday. Penetanguishene's Chemical Valley Junior Kings were at home in Elmvale's | Community Center, their first home game of the Ontario Junior C hockey season, and humoured them- selves with a 14-2 win over the severely un- dermanned Huskies. Within the first two minutes of play, Kings took the lead and started a bombardment that left the Huskies helpless. Huntsville came to play on Saturday night, only because the game had been rescheduled from an earlier date, Coach Elgin Bolton explained after the game that, most of his players were unable to play on Saturdays. "Our nights are Tuesdays and Fridays," he said, "the fellows were told that at the beginning of the year and they made arrangements to be off then. But that's the end, no more Saturday games for us from now on." In fact Huntsvilles manpower problem was brought on by more than a Saturday night game-- two of Huskies players are out, because of suspensions and two others are injured, leaving them with only eight forwards. Kings manager Peter Dubeau was annoyed with the poor showing by Huntsville. "They wanted to play tonight," he said, 'we gave them a choice of two dates and they picked tonight." St. Amant leader Kings' John St. Amant was leading scorer for the night as he and linemates Mare Duquette and Ross Prentice combined for five goals, four of them in the second period. Duquette had two goals of his own, assisted on all of St. Amant's five goals and was named player of the game. Prentice was awarded assists on three of St. Amant's goals as well as both of Duquette's goals. Huskies scored once in the first period as Don Fowler, a _ juvenile brought yp for the night, beat Kings goal tender Joe Gibson to make the score after the first period 6-1. Penetanguishene's first goal was scored by Andy Zurowski who beat the Huntsville goal tender on a play from Mark Decourcy at 1:02. | At 8:09 Mike Orser made it 2-0 assisted by Aime Gignac and less than two minutes later Ken Cowan went in alone to score King's third goal. Cowan and Prentice fed Duquette for his goal at 17:10 and 29 seconds later, Duquette scored again, this time from Prentice and St. Amant. Zurowski made it 6-0, 38 seconds later and was helped out by Decourcy and Kelly Larmand.

Penetanguishene is the last stop of their fifth Canadian tour. The tours are to publicize the Silver Broom bonspiel, in which the world champion team is determined. The bonspiel is being held in Winnineg this year. During the Swedes stay, as well as getting a feel for the local flavour of Penetangusishene, the team will be practicing, playing in exhibition games and as a grand finale taking on some local talent in the Wally's Men's Wear Bonspiel.

The work seems to be going on schedule and hopefully, the weather will keep relatively mild which will help immensely with the floor pouring. I have sent letters to groups which had ice rented last year, and I must remind them to get back to me and arrange a meeting before the end of November. If I do not hear from your group by then, I'm afraid your ice time will be rented to someone else. Please contact me as soon as possible to arrange this meeting. I would like to encourage all hockey fans to please support the Junior "C" Kings when they play their home games in Elmvyale. The team has lost only once so far this year and certainly deserve your support. by Ron Marchildon Penetanguishene Recreation Coordinator I'm sure you will enjoy their brand of hockey. A reminder that there are still a few Grey Cup Pool tickets available. This pool is being sponsored by the Junior Kings and tickets can be acquired at Stoneleigh Motors or Ken Gauthier Sports. Your support would be greatly appreciated. I fully intend to call at least two organizational meetings very early in the new year. It is imperative that both minor soccer and minor softball have a very Strong executive this year. Without this, executive support it is very likely that both sports may not operate this coming summer. Your interest and help will definitely be needed if our children are to par- ticipate in these two sports. |curlers said "I think we made a really good choice to come here." The team was not originally scheduled to come to Penetanguishene however, when they were in Pickering, Paul MacDonald, a member of the Midland curling team that went to the Briar, asked the Swedish team if they wanted to play in our part of the country.

On Friday they are playing in the Wally's Men's Wear Bonspiel --starting at 9 a.m. They are also playing in the Bonspiel on Saturday and Sunday, bu t the times will depend on whether they win their games or not.

Staff photo Fin, Fur and Feather by Bryan Berriault Private Preperty. No Trespassing. Keep out. Each " year our hunting and fishing territory gets smaller and smaller because of these signs. At times it may make a few of us a little angry to say the least. After talking to a few of the land owners and seeing some of the damage that has been done to private property in the last few years I can honestly say I really don't blame the landowners. Many men and women forget that while they are fishing or hunting on private land they are, in fact, guests of the owner. Just as being a guest in a homeit is up to the sportsmen to show the landowner he is deserving of the trust shown him. Leaving debris scattered through out the streams bush and lakes is no way to say thank you to the lan- downer. If, while out in the bush, every outdoorsman would pick up just a little bit of litter, it would not take long before we would be leaving nothing behind us but our footprints. Just maybe a few more landowners would allow us on their property knowing we are there to hunt and fish and not to cause damage or leave a mess. Just recently I had asked a landowner for permission to enter onto his property. The owner laid it on the line,.."Its all right if you don't leave any garbage laying around. I'm tired of picking up after you guys." It was the first time I had ever met the man. It can only mean that because of a few we are all given the same reputation. Its up to the sportsmen to show that we appreciate and respect the landowners property. Don't be afraid to offer some of your game to the owner. You may find that it will go a long way in the -future to ensure many hours of outdoor enjoyment. Deer season Weather was not the best for the deer hunter. As I sit banging away on the typewriter the rain is once again falling. There will have been many wet hides(Not only of deer) diiring the open season in the Muskokas. Since Manitoulin Island has not as yet opened its season for deer I can still hope for better weather than we are having now. The grapevine has it that the deer are staying close to Highway 69 and are not deep in the bush as we might expect. Ron Lalonde of Midland says he cannot explain it, but the deer seem to be within a mile of the highway. Ron does admit that it's a pleasant surprise and does save a lot of leg work. The weather was so bad on the day I met Ron that he and his party decided to take a break and dry out at home for a change. The party had seen deer but up until then had not bagged one as yet. If perseverance pays off Ron and his crew will at least get a taste this year. In the column of Sept. 28 / 77 some readers may have been misled by some of the statements made. At an executive meeting at which I was invited, as a guest, Lloyd Wilson informed me that over $1600 were paid in dues to the Federation of Anglers and Hunters that filters its way down in many Conservation projects throughout Ontario. This is only one of the examples I was.given. momentum in last week's zone two finals and ultimately resulted in Penetanguishene _Seco- ndary School losing 39-25. The game, played last Wednesday, was the first in a two-game, total-point series. PSS is now at a 14 point deficit going into next Thursday's final game. Penetanguishene held a 14-10 lead entering the second half and appeared to be carrying the play. Then Orillia's C. Adams got possession of the ball and struck three times from 25 feet out to catapult her team into the lead and demoralize the opposition. Loss leaves PSS juniors with tough uphill struggle eat changed the momentum," said Gail Kingsley of Adams' performance. "'We had to find a way of handling this player."' Kingsley admitted it wasn't all Adams' doing in ODCVI's resurgence. "We made a lot of tur- novers in our end of the court."' Bev Fitzgerald topped the score sheet for Penetanguishene, netting 13 points. J. Hughes and J. Caburoce scored 12 each for Orillia. The zone two champion will be decided in the second game of the total" point series, slated for next Thursday at PSS. Wednesday, November 16, 1977, Page 13 { ds 4
