In the first period the Merchants scored four goals, one each by John Avery, Rick Buck, Lambert Schameser and Kirk Hunter. Jim Hearn and Dennis Carty scored for the fighting Irish. Lucan picked up only one penalty to four for Norwich. The second period saw Lucan outscore the Merchants three to two with Ken Needham, Jack Bradley and Torn Hodgins each scoring single goals. Lu can Irish received only one penalty while Norwich made four trips to the sin bin. Then in the third period Norwich took over and scored four times, two goals by Wayne Longthorne and singles by Dale Lee and Terry Warbous, while Jim Macklem tallied for Lucan. The Irish received six penalties, one a five minute spearing penalty which waa assessed against Jeff Craig, A total of eight penalties to the Irish and nine to Norwich. Joe Arnold although scored and showed good form in the Irish nets. Defence seems to be the Irish failing and no doubt coach Bill Neil is suffering some sleepless nights thinking about the 33 goals against, while the Irish scored only 13 in three exhibition games.

KINSMEN BINGO SAT., OCT. 17 ..--: .--- ADMISSION 50c = = = a-7 OVER $1,300 IN PRIZES =- = By SID DALEY Our "EARLY BIRD" campaign is going great guns, the membership chairman advises that to date 12 members have paid their Legion dues for 1971. Are you one of them? I know I'm not, but I will be prior to my next weekly comments and I will have the "EARLY BIRD" seal to prove it. Why not join me? I was speaking to the "Chief Ghoul", come to think about it, he looked an awful lot like Smilin' Carl, anyway he told me to be sure and once again advise, all witches, ghosts and what have you, to be certain and answer the summons of last week's "Comments" to be present in the Sea, Land and Air Lounge of Branch 540, Saturday evening, to partake of the fun and games and prizes. The Chief Ghoul is placing the "Newfie Curse" on all and sundry who do not attend and to hear the "Chief" describe it, it sure sounded "Ghoulish". The "kids" from the "Orange Trash Can" sometimes known as the "Coffee House", in any event it is the Anglican Church Youth Movement, Lucan whose club rooms are in the basement of the Parish Hall, have asked that I put a plug in for them in this week's column. To obtain much needed equipment such as a record player, records, etc. the "kids" are holding a "Skate-a-thon", on Nov. 11th, at the Lucan Arena, they have rented the ice for 21/2 hours and are asking for sponsors to sponsor skaters at one cent a round. When one of the skaters asks for your sponsorship, be generous and help the "kids" in their project. I am lead to believe that one of these days, you will be able to enjoy your favourite brew while attending a hockey game. Branch 540 is jumping the gun a bit, and invites you to attend the 1970, Stanley Cup play-offs in the Sea, Land, & Air Lounge, on Friday, November 6 at 9 p.m., courtesy of Denny Riggin of Molsons' and Branch 540. Remember the date and time — Nov. 6 , 1970 at 9:00 p.m. Sounds interesting — See you there. Imagine being able to enjoy the game and a bubbly at the same time. Dates to Remember: Nov. 4, 1970 — Wednesday 8:30 p.m. Sharp — General Meeting at Branch 540 — Plan to attend and support your elected executive.

Nov. 11, 1970 — Wednesday 7:00 p.m. Remembrance Banquet — Branch 540, Lucan. I will have to retract my statement in a previous "Comment" that everybody is welcome — I have since been advised the banquet is "STAG", unless, of course, a "woman" veteran wishes to attend. And that's 30 for this week — Remember, What we really need is more young people who will carry to their jobs the same enthusiasm for getting ahead that they display in traffic.
