Garden Show at the O'Keefe Centre, Toronto, March Amo ng tire ."veteran" members who attended were the president, Mrs, Charles Nelson and directors, Mrs. D,-Oltle, Mrs. N. Forbes, Mrs. McIntyre, Mrs, R. Cutimnre and Mrs. S. Middleton. Al,$P attending were Mrs, T. R, 'Thompson, Mrs, N, Tyndail and Mrs. 'Fred siornan, This was the 16th Garden show by the Garden Club of TOMO() and the theme of this year's show was "Toronto Now." The display of massed roses in the main foyer perfumed the air and welcomed winter-weary travellers. There was a magnificent massed display of 4,000 bulbs .donated by the Netherlands Flower Institnte on the auditorium stage, where Curley Posen led his orchestra in nostalgic tunes, a restful haven. In a natural woodland setting in the main foyer, trilliums and Jack-in-the-pulpits were in full bloom. The wildflower slogan was "Take Nothing But Pictures:" Continuing the theme "Toronto Now" there was emphasis on apartment living with its balcony and container gardening and fluorescent living. The mini penthouse gardens flourish now in Toronto. We loved the landscape art depicted by the Japanese garden. The herb garden provided a centre of interest as did the Swedish' hand-loomed display of wool yarn dyed from natural plants. We particularly enjoyed the collection of 50 paintings by Toronto artists, arranged by A, J. Casson. This show was called "Flower Power," and . gave another dimension to the fragrant 'blaze of real flower power. Mayone Pigott's painting of daisies, red currants and Queen Anne's lace excited comment as did Shaw-Remmington's leaf pattern sculpture in welded brass. Typifying the theme, "Toronto Now" was Joseph Cusemanas' roses without thorns, -without stalks, floating dreamily in a window niche opening out onto a hill and pale sky. • Of perennial interest are the flower • show's competitive classesmith names such as "Your Own Thing," "Well Preserved," and "Poster World." One way-out arrangement featured a small real .- red fox fur curled around an amber vase and the tawny flower colors complemented the ringed tail. This was just part of the exotic colorful fare provided by the flower show to titillate jaded winter-weary travellers. The Clinton party came home in a blizzard!

Pee Wees Continued from page 1 them so hard they only had the puck in Clinton's end once. The championship game with New Hamburg, the winner of the Lions Tournament the past two years, was a hard fought game. The goalkeeping was superb with both goalkeepers doing some great acrobatics in keeping out the puck. The New Hamburg goalie had no chance in the only goal scored in the game when Steve Cook intercepted a defenceman's pass and fixed a hard shot into the short side of the net. Although McAdam and Graham did not receive assists on the play which they originated, Graham hit McAdam with a rink-wide pass and Robin fired ,a long shot at the goalie. His rebound went to the defenceman who didn't look when he passed the puck. Cook's goal also won Robert Harkes the goaltending award as the New Hamburg goalie had allowed only four goals as well up to that point. Mr. Joe Higgins, chairman of the tournament, presented Harkes with the trophy at the conclusion of the game. The wife of the Manager of the Imperial Bank of Commerce presented the trophy to captain Billy Irwin and Mr. Higgins gave crests to all the members of the teams. The winning club 'vvasf goal, Robert Harkes; Don Peterson; defence, Billy Irwin, John Graham, DaVid Bartliff, Gerald Cantelon, Doug Matthews; forwards, Greg Holmes, Steve Cook, Robin McAdam, Neil Colquhoun, Jamie Thompson, David Clynich, Greg Butler, David Counter, Mike Gibbing, Kalvin Merner; coach, Bill Weber; manager, Bob Clifford.

But the local girls held out for the win. Dearborn oldtimers tops Dearborn players seem to improve with age if the outcome of Saturday's oldtimers game between Clinton and Dearborn is any evidence. Deaborn defeated the local team 11,8 in convening fashion. Bill Ventola led the visitors with three goals and two assists. Paul Draper scored twice for Clinton as did Bob Livermore while Bud Yeo, Bruce Cooper, Borden McRae and Randy Glew, added singles.
