MILDMAY FURNITURE SHOWROOMS
(2 showrooms, one on each side of Main Street)
Everybody is tired, but happy, and the Young Canada Weeh officials in
Goderich have reason to smile after the conclusion to Canada's biggest pee
wee hockey jamboree, Last Saturday night saw Waterloo edge the Mildmay
Monarchs 3 to 2, to win the Grand Championship and the D. D, Mooney
Trophy, emblematic of the overall pee wee supremacy. *
In all, forty-seven teams took part in the Monday io Saturday play,
eclipsing all previous entry lists. It was also the first time that an out-of
province team was entered in the play. The Winnipeg Tom Thumbs made
the trip east, and included the Young Canada Tourney in their barnstorm
ing. That- it was the most successful tournament in its five-year history,
is attested to by the fact that close to ten thousand fans turned out during
the six days, three times as many as in any previous year,
Despite the fact that Waterloo are worthy champions, the Mildmay kids
stole the hearts of the crowd on Saturday’s wind-up, when they came
within an ace of scoring the biggest upset of the -week. The Little Mon
archs, with seven men playing the whole series, captured the imagination
of the fans with their consistently good play and display of fighting heart
After handily winning their own “C" trophy, they eliminated Grand Bend
and Seaforth, and then took on the titans of the “AA” series, and except
for a slow start, might have copped
the big one. One thing sure, Mild
may had the best-coached club in the ]
series.
They haven’t totalled up the food
consumed by the young hockey stars, ,
but on a one.-day basis, the boys con
sumed twenty-seven dozen hot dogs, '
and the Coca-Cola people took the
caps off 145 cases of their product.
This is besides the sandwiches and
hot meals served every day in the
tournament. The association between
the Goderich Lions club and the
WOAA has never been happier than
it is right now, after the conclusion
of one of the best hockey weeks seen
anywhere.

Both hockey, and baseball scouts
are finding pretty fair pickings in
this area these days , . . KENNY
HODGKINSON, who shows signs of
good potential as a future hockey
star, has been highly praised by the

Easter holidays, and impressed so
well that the Leaf's would like to

well at the Young Canada Week
hockey tournament this year. Despite
an initial victory over a Pee Wee

undoing in the second game when
they defeated Wingham 8-3. Seaforth

Town League
Last week saw the finals in the
Town League started for the Burke
Electric Trophy with the Aces And
the Macl Hatters, the two teams batt
ling for said trophy. The Aces, how
ever, have the edge on the Mad Hat
ters now after taking the first three
games Monday night of a six game
series. However, in taking the three
games the Aces were lucky, beating
the Hatters by a very small margin,
the Aces racking up 2796 tpins while
the Hatters had 2636 pins, a slim lead
to carry into the second found in case
there is a tie in games.
The high single went to Bill John-
ton of the Mad Hatters with a 316
followed by Bruce McCullough of the
AceS with a 270.
