(Staff Photo) S 4 r ,o 'New,.cd 1,he‘Seaforth Lawn Bowlitig Club • • SPORTS SCENE by Ding This holiday week end and sport fans had a lot in common as Television provided a wide variety of sporting activities and ' the local scene gave plenty of action. Television began with professional hockey as the National Hockey League got underway on Friday night with the newest Canadian team, Vancouver, providing the enter- tainment. Baseball was a major contribution on the "squack box" as the World Series got underway. The Canadian Football League can't be forgotten as several , games were televised over the long .week end. On the local scene St. Columban proVided plenty of excitement as they played two home games. The local bowling 'alley- was pOpillar hang-out for bowling en- thusiasts A proved to be a sportsman's week end. ,, , Starting With baseball, the Baltimore Orioles are trying terribly hard to prove me wrong as , they upset the Cincinnati Reds -in the two opening games of the World Series, both being played in Cincinnati, With the Series now moving to Balti- more for the next three, games and the Birds leading the series 2 - 0, it looks as if my bright prediction of Cincinnati in six games is going' • down the drain along with the Big Red Machine. However, I can't change my earlier statements and by press time the World Series could easily be history and my name mud; but if it turns into a visitor's series and the Reds can take a couple in Baltimore, I could still make 'it in seven. Now I change to a subject that seems to be more in line with my way of thinking - Football - The Saskatchewan Roughriders have now clinched first place in the Western Conference and the Argos have moved into a first place tie in the East. The Western Conference has two positions settled as Regina has first and Winnipeg has the honor of holding down last place. The Eastern Conference, however, is a different story as no positions have yet been determined, but with the improved play of the Argos of late, it looks as if it's going to be difficult to remove them from the Eastern Championship. The local high school football club has also improved as they finally edged out Listowel to post their first victory of the season. They could no w be a real threat to the powers in the Huron-Perth League. St. Columban again showed their, skill in soccer as they won both games at home and stand a good chance of winning their division championship. The main 'topic of discussion now has turned to hocke}, and for good reason, as the N.H.L. is into a new season along with two, new teams. The local Junior teams are underway or will be shortly as arenas are quickly producing ice as the cold weather nears. Junior hockey followers will have to travel to Stratford for Jr. "B" hockey this season as the Goderich Sifto's failed to ice a team, London or Kitchener are our 'closest Jr. '•A" teams with London probably drawing the most interest. Locally, the talk of another champ- ionship Intermediate team is in the air and the younger set are getting their skates sharpened in anticipation of a fruitful season.
