Dewit- e highly favorable start which saw Woodbridge‘ Dodgers beat Dixie Beehives byl 52, last week turned out to be something less than p happy time for said Dodgers. St. Mi- dhlel's Butlers came in on Thurs- day and hung it on the local squad by a more of 5-1. South In Dixie Thlnks to three goals in the last period-one of which went into a net from which Mr. Robert Neil had been removed for tac- tical reasuns-the Dodgers did it in) Dixie without too much strain. Bill Foley netted two of the Dodgers' goals with Brian Ben- nett, Don Graham and Scott La- Rue contibuting singles. Casselman and Pakey were the goal-genus for the Beehives. Evening With the Mickelodeons Hosts to St. Michael's Buzzers on Thursday, the Dodgers tried hard to be unmannerly by thump- ing the ears off their guests but failed by a margin of four goals. The piece went to the Irish by a store of 5-1. The Buzzers hit for four first- period goals with Tom Polonic, Mike Savage, Mutt Oreskovich and Ted Pupinikan doing the scoring. Brian Bennett contributed the Dodgers' lone tally and Mike Cor- bett (what's that Irishman doing in there?) rounded out the E-Cor- ing for the night by netting the final goal for St. Mikes. Dressing Room Notes Local observers had their first Trustee Isobel Walker pressed Dr. F. W. Minkler, North York's director. of education, at the Board of Education Monday meet- ing, for an explanation of the short hours kept by the town- ship puils in contradiction to the stipulated 9 mm. to 4 p.m. school day. Mrs. Walker. remarked that lshe was distressed to see elemen- ltary pupils leaving school prem- ises at 3 o'clock in the after- noon in order to accommodate lparent-teacher interviews. Nob lonly are the children being de- lptuved of an hour of schooling, ibut the afternoon interviews can lonly be attended by one parent, jthe mother in most cases. Mrs. ‘Walker argued. By switching \the meetings both parents would (be able to participate in their lclild’s educational welfare. Trustee tmeets To Lax School Hours A further sturgestioh that thel period devoted to parent-teacher interviews could be cut down considerably by issuing invita- tions to only parents of problem children was dismissed by Dr. Minkler as being dependent on one's educational philosophy. "It would be very unfortunate if we returned to the position of only summoning the parent when his youngster is in trouble," Dr. Minkler stated. He drew a para- llel to the practice followed by the medical profession whereby a physician wants to examine his patient at times of good health in order to determine how the organism is functioning at its best. Expressing a belief that child-‘ ren should be granted full SChOl-l ustie advantages, Trustee Walker, also objected to the prevalant toractice of releasing grade 7 and 8 pupils of township junior high school at noon/and earlier after ‘he completion of an examina- tion. In contrast. students en- rolled in equivalent grades in public schools are not granted this privilege, Mrs. Walker point- ed olst, She urged the boérd of look at Father Conway's Bun- eu on Thursday.

Eight of the players who helped the Irish to finish at the top of the Junior B circuit lait year are back Izoin, including such reputable ‘hockey players as‘Mike Savage, Bill Crawford, Tom Polonlc, Paul ‘Sinclair and the incomparable Gary Smith, undoubtedly the best goalie now in action in the league. Among the new additions who stack up well are Gary Di- neen, Rod Seiling and Ted Pop- liniknn. The local squad hits the road for the next little while, not showing on local ice until Thurs- day, December 8. Tonight the Dodgers are visitors to the Lttke- ahore rink for a game against said Lnkeshores. The Saxon Shop's sports shirt award for We player of the week went to Dan Slater for his work against the Irish on Thursday. Playing his first league game as a Dodger last week, Ed. Bur- ford showed plenty of the old de- sire. A graduate from the North York Hockey Uague-which was, also the alma mater of Bob Wil- son and ex-Dodger Earl Heiskala -Burford shapes up as a very likely prospect. A guess about the makeup of another line is that Rick McKenna will be on the right side of Brian Bennett and Don Graham. officials to enforce a full-time day for all the pupils, suggesting that students would be better occupied preparing for their ex- aminations under supervisions than going home to watch tle- vision. Dr. Minkled promised to in- vestigate the situation. He ven- tured the possibility that schools are being cleared of pupils in cider to insure peace for those writing examinations in the after- noons.

The church. known as Fisher-i ville Presbyterian Church was built in 1856 to serve the; then flourishing grist-mill community of Fisherville. Sturdily' constructed at pine and covered with roughcast, the iiG/ church has changed little in outward appearance. It was in use as a church until a year ago. and recently was do- nated by the United Church of Canada to the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservation Authority for use as a church building in its Pioneer Village. Shown here seeing the church being moved to its new site are. left to right, Rev. M. B. Sanderson, of Toronto; Mrs. Thomas Watts, of R.R. I, Downsview. who served as Sunday school superintendent at the church; Rev. G. W. lead. at Port Credit; and Albert Colucci, director of the Pioneer Village. The church is re. garded by architectural authorities as being one oi the best examples of early church buildings in Canada.

Wulile Whips Opponents With Garbage Issue Promising an amendment to Etobicoke's contentious garbage hy-law, Reeve H. O. Waffle told some 350 dissatisfied home- owners that the message has retrirstered with him. The reeve and his campaign office have been plagued with telephone calls and abuse for the past three months. Some per- sons opposing the bylaw even went to the extent of dumping garbage in from of reeve's home. Speaking about the bylaw, Reeve Waffle accused his oppon- ents of unmitigated gall and lack of intestinal fortitude exemplified by their handling of this basic election issue. Mr. Waffle admitting himself in part responsible for the bylaw which forbids collection of any garbage wrapped in boxes or containers, broke the summer- long evasion of the subject by suggesting that the strict ruling on the question could be relaxed. TO He refused, however, to clear his two opponents of their share in the passage of the unpopular testrictions. "Cuuncillor Robert Bush, who voted for this bylaw, not once, not twice, but three times, and approved it in subsequent dis.. cussions, now has the unmitigated gall to stand before you asking for your vote out of one side of his face, and Iampooning gift- wrapped garbage, of which he approves, out of the other," Mr. Waffle challenged.

"There are men on this plat- form besides myself also respon- sible for this bylaw, trying to make political hay at your ex- Pease," Mr. Waffle rtyyktd. " He told the assembled, "I he? gave I now know the people'sl wishes in this respect at this: time as it applied to this by-law, passed by this council."
