The windup of summer always brings a flurry of sports activity, and never was this more apparent than over the past seven days. To recap briefly, Weston Summer Skating School held a very successful Freeskating Meet. Two Western Scouts and their scoutmaster captured top honours in Peterborough‘s White Water Slalom canoeing conâ€" test; Nick Weslock copped the 37th annual Willie Park golf tournament at Weston Golf Club; Brampton and Brooklin engaged in a donnybrook in the second game of their Ontario Lacrosse Senior Finals; North York Ball and Rexdale Lacrosse entered their final rounds; and Ken Avarell and his Dodgers are having a ball in Florida. We were in the unfortunate position of being away last week and although we enjoyed the finest week of summer weather in Ontario‘s Northern vacaâ€" tionland, we missed a great deal of local sports colour. RUBBING IT IN Ken dropped us a welcome note, but I think he overdid the description to arouse our envy. Listen to this . . . The weather is great with temperature in the 90‘s . . . every building is air conditioned . . . Beach is 30 miles long with water temperature in the eighties . . . Lots to do . .. going deep water fishing Friday (that fits) . . . Lots of golf . .. off to the dog races . .. Wow! The caravan made good time from their deparâ€" ture Saturday, arriving Daytona Beach 2.30 p.m. Monday after overnight stops at, of all places, Woodâ€" bridge (Virginia, that is) and Sultana, Ga. They exâ€" pect to arrive back in town this Sunday. Who has the ticker tape and confetti? SOLID SIXTYâ€"EIGHT Nick Weslock was once again out to prove that he was the best of the amateur circuit when he recordâ€" ed a meat 68 over eighteen holes to win the 3%th anâ€" nual Willie Park Tournament at Weston Golf Club. Runners up in order were Alfi Heakes, Gary Cowan and Terry Sye. There were 125 entered in the meet. All these doings took place in the second game of the Ontario senior lacrosse finals at Brooklin Monâ€" day night. From the varied reports of the press, the riot started after Brampton‘s Gord Thompson trampâ€" led Brooklin‘s Bobby Curtis but the crowd somehow took out spite on Bruce Wanless on his way to the dressing room for repairs. Make Sense? Stupidity seldom does. Lacrosse is a game involving two teams. Apparâ€" ently the people of Brooklin see things differently: In a manner reminiscent of the disgraceful conduct of certain Toronto soccer enthusiasts, they felt it was quite in order to get into the act when things did not go their way. â€" in Brampton unless the O.L.A. suspends Gord Tho.nfl{- son. What is this, a kindergarten scrap. When will these_ko‘_/erg_rown kids settle down to play the game. The teams are now at the nameâ€"calling stage with at least three games and possibly more left to play. Brampton won‘t play in Brooklin without a police riot squad for protection. Brooklin won‘t play It is almost impossible to chastise the stupidity of overexuberant fans when the players themselves act like spoiled children on the floor. I think that fans and players alike should attend a minor lacrosse match and see how the game is played. ROUGH STUFF The Junior Class at the 4th Annual Ontario White Water Slalom Championships held at Peterborough Sunday Sept, 2 in the rapids near Lock 22, was taken by Larry Scott and Ross Durfey of the 4th Weston Scout Troop. Three teams from 4th Weston were entered in the two man canoe event for boys under 18 years of age. The Mayor of Peterborough _ presented t h e Scouts with their trophies and the TV station in Peterborough showed them making their run. Weston Scouts Place First In White Water Slalom Meet The Canoe Slalom is a course with 18 gates hanging in various places over a series of rapids, through which the canoe must maneuver. Points are added if poles are hit, or if gates are missed and the lowest score deâ€" termines the winner. The first gate was a drop down a chute from the top of a dam to the water below, a height change of 14 feet. Other gates meant going upstream making sharp furns and backing down currents which are travelling 8 miles per hour. meanwhile dodging rocks and other hazards.

Mark Coulston, my sixâ€"yearâ€"old nephew, had just completed his first two weeks of camping, and his parâ€" ents were not without certain anxieties as we left the highway and followed the trail to Kanda: lore‘s beautiful Haliburton reâ€" treat. How had Mark reacted to this: new adventure? How did he like being away from home, and his parents, for the first time? Was he well, or wasting away to a shadow? Two minutes in camp answered all those questions most favourably. The little felâ€" lowâ€"was reluctant to leave and would. gladly have‘stayed for anâ€" other two weeks. It was a treat to hear him tell his father to be sure to break his match before he threw it away. By doing so he would be preventing a forest fire. He made a point of letting us know that the tiny souvenir eanoes which he had made were of bark taken from dead birch trees and not live ones. He says he knows how to make his own camp fire, and he can swim pretty well now. 1fers anu NO VE ONCC CC Sofs | Slaying with friends at their he knows how to make his own ‘ cottage near Sprucedale, we felâ€" camp fire, and he can SWiM | jows visited a neighbouring Finâ€" pretty well now. nish farmer and were invited to Mark has stepped out on the | use his "Sauna" (steam bath) on right foot along an outdoor trail | Saturday night.

Sunday morning â€" breakfast came to a sudden conclusion when Paul Copeland brought a little garter snake into the cotâ€" tage to show everybody, While endeavoring to place it in a conâ€" tainer of some sort, the snake was accidently dropped in the middle of the breakfast table. I have never seen a meal come to an end so fast. It sure is funny the effect these creatures can have on people. The little garter snake is harmless and I can reâ€" member my boyhood days when I used to carry them around in my pockets. My mother didn‘t appreciate such pets however, especially the time she was talkâ€" ing to me and saw a little green fellow slide up out of my shirt ‘I really thought she had taken a fit.
