A new concept in home-cot- tage-appliances and interiors marketing has been evolved by Beaver Lumber Co. By setting up a huge super- market, or "Showease of Home Ideas" with everything in it from complete homes, cottages, garages, and interiors, Beaver Lumber believes it has taken most of the running around out of home or cottage buying. The 13-acre.Brmver complex on Keele St. at the Langstaff Side REL. one mile north of Highway Seven, is the first store- show court in the Toronto area. The 13.000 square feet of store space stocks practically all the necessities for home building or repairing. Outside in the show court are several types of cottages and a complete house on display. At the back of the area, there are seven warehouses, the heavy building supplies, lumber, ce- ment and wail board. stacked ready for mechanical handling and delivery.

Advancing to the semi-final tor the western diviaion championship last week, they scored a 10 to 0 shutout “that udtsurrPark. Both these game: were any from home rinks, and the boys made " ex- cellent showing. These tt and , year olds of the Amesbury hockey school, will meet the eastern division charm pions at centennial arena " 8 for the North York championship. Ameshury's other team, the 10 and 11-year-old boys of the Pee Wee division, will play in the semi-finals at the arena at 6:30 and should they win this game will be advanced to the finals at 8:30 the same night. This hockey schdol. which the boys have been attending Since last November, is primarily to teach them how to skate, and the basics of hockey. It is only at the end of the season tfitt they actu- ally play in any inter-school games. I am told of one young lad who arrived at Amesbury at the beginning of the season with a new pair of skates in a box. and who had never been on the ice before. He was actually playing in the two championship games with Amesbury. tkittf: A great deal of credit is due coach Jim McPhee of the North York parks and recreation de, partment who coaches and trams the Amesbury boys in both the Atoms and Pee Wees. I under- stand he has been with Ames. bury for some time, and has had a number of teams of champion. ship calibre. As I was at these championship games last year, I can guarantee everyone an evehig of enjoy. ment routing for your home team. With no school the follow ing day, perhaps some of the parents will bring their young- stars There are lots of good seats available. and of course. no charge. The first game is at 6:30 with the final game of the Prem ing scheduled to begin at 8:30. SWIM MEET Selected swimmers from the North York swim program will be competing in a swim meet at Memorial pool, Willowdale on Thursday, March 21 from , to 10 p.m. The public is invited to come and watch the competitions Again, for this event. there is no charge. There will be no swimming classes and no public swimming; at Nelson A. Boylen pool during; the next week of "winter vaca- tion." The board of education will have this pool closed for repairs. However, if you feel the need for a swim, Downsview. Jeffries and Emery will all be open.

TIN CAN CUILING It hasn't yet been determined land perhaps never will bet whe. ther the lack of registration for Tin Can Curling " Amesbury was due to disinterest. or if the children in that age group were just too busy participating in other activities. However, if any boys between the ages of g and 14 are interested, the Parks and Recreation Department will be holding a Tin Can Bonspiel at Centennial Arena on Thursday, March 21 and Friday, March 22, beginning at 9 Wm. and continu ing throughout the day. For this event, there is a small fee hich includes the provision of ic'l,r,'l and brooms. You don't have to register, just be there " 9 tt.ttt. With most of the mid-winter programs almost over. the Parks and Recreation are now busy drawing up their summer pro- gram. I believe a few bouquets should be thrown their way as a compliment for the excellent vari- ety of activities they' plan through- out the year, and particularly dur. mg the vacation periods.
