Blyth Novice players , coaches dreaming of Christmas
BYRUSTYBLADES
Recently I had a chance to do
some indepth interviews with the
players and coaching staff and I
found out what each wanted to find
under the tree on Christmas
morning.
James McNichol - James wants his
own personal statistics sheet so he
can keep track of his goals and
assists and constantly remind
cousin Brian which one has the
most.
BYTINABURKHOLDER
BLYTHP.S.
Once upon a time there was a
Christmas tree. He was small and
all the other Christmas trees were
bigger than him and stronger than
him. He felt sad because no one
wanted him.
Then one cold night a family
came in the store. They were
looking for a Christmas tree that
was small and not too big. When
the little girl set sight on the small
Christmas tree she said, "Oh
please Mom and Dad. Can we get
that Christmas tree? Please can
we?"
Well, let me see. How much does
the Christmas tree, over there in
the corner cost Mr. Owen?"
"Oh let me see. Ah, it costs 40
dollars".
"Then we will get it."
So they took the Christmas tree
home. Mom said; "We'll decorate
it tomorrow".
"Oh Mom, can't we decorate it
tonight?" asked Billy and Eliza-
beth.
"Please, please?"

almost everyone's mind these
days."
But I mean "The" gift - the very
greatest and best - the gift sent to
earth, from heaven, that first
Christmas.
Have you thought how no other
gift every given, no matter how
elegant, has ever brought so much
joy?
And have you thought how no
other gift, no matter how expen-
sive, has ever brought peace to
human hearts?
Only the gift from God, Jesus
Christ, can give real meaning to
life, and this is the only gift we
know of that can give peace and
contentment and fullfilment. My!
what a 'gift-!
Our prayer for all who read this is
that you have, or will, receive this
gift from God, which is offered in
love, to all who will receive it.
Have a good Christmas!
Russ & Marion Cook.
Brian McNichctl - Brian wants a pen
with invisible ink in it so he, in turn,
can given it to cousin James to keep
his scoring stats with.
Jonathan Collins - Jonathan wants
a reinforced piggy bank to keep his
goal scoring money in.
Mike Bromley - All Mike wants is a
hat. He has had two or three hat
tricks this year and has yet to see a
fan throw a hat onto the ice for him.
(An old hockey custom).
Christopher Howson - Christopher
"No, we can't. It has been a long
night", said Daddy.
Meanwhile, the Christmas tree
was feeling sad because he was
cold and wet. A large tear rolled
down his face.
The next day Billy and Eliza-
beth's father went out and brought
the poor Christmas tree into the
house. He set him up. Then Billy
and Elizabeth helped decorate the
tree.
Pretty soon the small Christmas
tree was both happy and looked
nice too. After they had decorated
the tree they sang some carols and
opened some presents. It was the
happiest Christmas ever, thought
Billy and Elizabeth.
wants a pair of elevator skates -
then he would have the size to
match his heart.
Ryan Chamney - Ryan wants a
Wayne Gretzky hockey stock that
hopefully has some Wayne
Gretzky goals left in it.
Josh Yanchus - Goalie Josh wants a
matching sweater big enough to fit
over his bulky goalie equipment.
Jamie Bromley - Jamie loves the
wrist shot so much that he is
looking fora hockey stick that
shoots only wrist shots - not
slapshots.
Jerrod Button -Jerrod wants a tape
recorder so he can tape the
coaches' comments on the bench
and between periods and then play
them back when he gets bored.
Peter Craig - Peter wants a movie
camera so he can film his play in
games and then show his brothers
the right way to play the game.
Henry Box - All Henry wants for
Christmas is to be offered a
part-time coaching job so he can
give goal scoring tips to all the
other players.
Benje and Shawn Hakkers - Twins
Benje and Shawn want to become
Blyth's answer to the Sutter twins
in Philadelphia.
Coach Bruce Bromley - Bruce
would like a bottle of "Grecian
Formula" so he can darken the
grey hair that this team is giving
him.
Coach Doug Chamney - Doug said
he could use some new pens if the
typewriter doesn't come in on
time.
Coach Jeff Howson - Jeff wants a
daily calendar so he can keep his
appointments, dates and meetings
straight and maybe even remem-
ber some practices.
May you all have avery Merry
Christmas and a Happy and
Prosperous New Year from the
Blyth Novice Team.
