On Wednesday, Aug. 27 the Huron
Perth Lakers Major PeeWees hosted
the Grey Bruce Highlanders in a
return exhibition match in Seaforth.
Goalie Eric Ryan was called upon
to start the game. The Lakers came to
play and started fore- checking
aggressively early in the game
forcing the play deep into the
Highlanders end zone.
Bayley Boyes gave chase and
pushed the puck around to Nathan
Templeman who put a perfect pass on
Gregory Swan’s stick in the slot.
Swan fired a shot on net, picked up
his own rebound, and found the back
of the net.
Garrett James kept the momentum
going for the Lakers with a big open-
ice hit on a fast-moving Highlander
forward. The Highlanders responded
with two quick goals midway
through the first putting them ahead
2-1.
Seconds into the second period
Alex Peters and Swan combined to
get the puck to Templeman who tied
the score at two. Cole Thomas came
in midway through the second to tend
goal for the Lakers.
With several penalties being
assessed the Lakers’ defense was
called upon to play as a tight unit.
Whatever penalty killing unit Coach
Goetz sent out they were up to the
task shutting down the Highlanders at
every turn.
With the score tied 2-2 the Lakers
started the third period with some
extra jump in their stride. Within the
first minute Swan had scored twice,
registering the hattrick, with helpers
going to Templeman, Boyes and
Roland McKeown with a pair.
Five minutes into the third Boyes
and Templeman muscled the puck
from the Highlander defenders and
found Swan in front of the goal and
he netted his fourth of the night.
Late in the game the Lakers
showed good conditioning as they
continued to gain more momentum.
Andrew Bogden and James displayed
good teamwork as they set up Derek
Elliott for the sixth score making the
final score 6-2.
The Lakers hosted the Waterloo
Wolves in an exhibition tune up game
in Goderich on Sept. 1.
With several of the Lakers coming
off playing many OBA
Championship games this weekend
the legs looked to be a little tired
early in the game.
After the first couple of shifts the
team seemed to get their skating legs
going. A few minutes into the game
Elliott led the for check forcing the
Waterloo defender to pivot back into
the corner. Bogdon stripped the puck
from the defenseman and fed an
accurate pass onto the stick of
Tenpas. He made no mistake burying
a high snap shot over the goalies
glove.
Midway into the first period the
Lakers had to kill off a two man
disadvantage. Their penalty killing is
proving to be a real asset early in the
season. Starting goalie Thomas was
called upon to make a good blocker
save late in the period keeping the
Wolves off the score sheet. The
Lakers carried the play during the
first period but could only register
one goal.
The second period started
promisingly for the Lakers as Elliott
led a rush right from the drop of the
puck pushing a pass cross ice to
Bogdon. He redirected the pass onto
the goal only to have the Waterloo
goalie make a fine save.
At the halfway point Waterloo
capitalized on a team defensive lapse
deep in the Lakers’ zone and scored
the tying goal.
Both teams played out the rest of
the second going end to end. Eric
Ryan came in to relieve starting
goalie Thomas and needed to be
sharp immediately. Ryan made a
great pad save on a tipped shot off a
Wolves stick.
Early in the third period Swan
chipped the puck off the wall to a
waiting Templeman. He then carried
the puck down the ice feathering a
pass to Boyes who jammed the go-
ahead goal into the net.
With six minutes left the Lakers
pushed forward looking for an
insurance goal. James pinched
smartly into the Wolves end chipping
the puck to Templeman who banked
a nice pass down low to Swan. Swan
walked out of the corner all alone and
snapped a shot pass the Waterloo
goalie making the score 3-1.
Late in the game McKeown made a
heads-up play splitting a pair of
Waterloo defenders at the blue line
and then launched a blast towards the
Waterloo goal which just missed low
to the blocker side leaving the final
score at 3-1.

The Brussels PeeWee Tigers played their last game of the
WOAA season last week, coming up just short to visiting
Mildmay by a score of 11-8. (Vicky Bremner photo)

Brussels Public Library
402 Turnberry Street
Brussels, Ontario N0G 1H0
Statement of Cultural Heritage Value or Interest
The Brussels Public Library built in 1909, is prominently located
downtown at the corner of Turnberry Street and Orchard Lane. Of the
numerous Carnegie Libraries built in Ontario, only six have corner
entrances, Brussels being one of them. A corner entrance was thought
to be overly extravagant in the mind of Andrew Carnegie’s secretary
James Bertram, who reviewed library proposals.
The architect, W. J. Ireland, used a revised Neoclassical Style in the
building’s design, which features the following:
• a classically columned corner portico
• ascending stairways through the portico meeting one of
Carnegie’s requirements of giving library patrons a “sense of
elevating themselves towards self-improvement”
• the colonnade of the corner portico consists of two round stone
Doric columns with carved stone bases and carved stone capitals
• the pediment of the Library’s corner portico contains a circular
window oculus surrounded by a laurel leaf wreath. In response to
Carnegie’s goal to promote self-improvement, architect W. J.
Ireland may have chosen the laurel leaf wreath to symbolize the
glory and honour of self-improvement within the library’s walls.
