Pass 6 The Timee,Aelvocete, November 10, 1%0 SH1D1115..sweepstcournament here POOR EMILY! If any interested persons ever decide to honor the best hosts of the year,. South Huron District High School will probably be way dawn at the bottom of the list. Last Thursday the local school W48 the scene of the annual Perthex conference girls volleyball tournament. The .SHDHS girls very graciously invited the other teams in the •Perthex, namely Stratford, S• t. Marys, Listowel and Mitchell, to stage the tourna- ment at SHDHS. It was felt that because SH now has two large. gymnasiums it would be an ideal setup to stage the one-day meet for both senior and junor teams in the conference. When the visitors arrived they were welcomed very cordially by their hosts and all their needs were. looked after. They were given the run, of the school. and probably were thinking that these girls froM .SHDHS were as good a hosts as one could -find. However, when the opposition took the floor against the locals they soon found out how wrong they were, In a display of poor manners that would put Emily Post to shame, the girls beat all of their opposition and when the final tabulations were count- ed it showed that SHDHS had copped bah senior and junior girls' volleyball championships. The win by the senior team was no great up- set as they were favorites to cop the trophy they held last year. Several of the players who participated on last year's Perthex championship team and gained a final berth in the WOSSA playoffs were around again this year to repeat the first part of last year's per- formance. However, the junior girls' victory came as a surprise to most of the competitors at the tourney and also to their coach, Laurette Siegner, This same junior team had been beaten quite decisively in ex- - hibition games with Clinton and London South and even lost the opener in Thursday's playoff. But the girl refused to quit and came back and copped all three of their remaining contests to duplicate the feat of their senior cohorts, Miss Siegner did not single out any players on either team for outstanding contributions to the perfect day, but said it "was strictly a team effort". Shen went on -to add that volleyball was a game that perhaps took more team effort than most sports and no one player can ever be picked out as a real star. So, we send along our congrats to these two girls' teams on their fine effort and wish the senior girls well in their quest for a WOSSA championship on Saturday, November 12. (We shudder to think what they might do to their opposition when they are playing away from home and not acting as hosts,) MITCHELL DROPS FROM HOCKEY SCENE When Exeter Mohawk fans turn out to cheer - the locals in 'the coming hockey season,, they won't have to save any of their "cat calls" for the Mitchell Red Devils. Apparently the Mitchell squad has given up the Idea of intermediate hockey this year, and this will undoubtedly be a great loss to -the league. During, the past few seasons, the Red Devils have proven very strong opposition to the Mohawks and have always been crowd pleasers with their wide open style of hockey, featuring such stars as Mary Shantz, Charlie Westman, Linc Rohfritsch., Ernie Little, Bob Doig, Gord Walters, Jack Merriam and several others. We doubt if all these players have decided to retire and there is a poSsibility that one or two might even be in Mohawk uniforms this year. RED'S ALLEYS PROVE POPULAR One Mohawk official informed us last week that he had heard that the lack of hockey enthusiasm in Mitchell was partly due to the popularity of one of this area's most popular sports—that of bowling, Walter "Red" Scott, who used to manage the local alleys along with his son-in-law., Bob Pooley, • recently opened a new alley in Mitchell and the sportsmen over that 'way apparently have taken to this new sport so enthusiastically that they have for- : gotten about hockey altogether. We dropped in to Red's new venture last Thursday while we were in Mitchell to watch. the Panthers play football, and can readily see why the residents of Mitchell are enjoying this new sport so Much. Red has installed automatic pinsetters in the bowling alley, and practically everything else is auto- • matic too. • Tile patrons can get cigarettes, chocolate bars, toffee and soft drinks from automatic dispensers, " and all Red has to do is sit back and take in the , money. (Nice work if you can get it!) The only hope for Mitchell getting back into the puck wars again may have to rest with the head pins. If some of the heckey players get as many head pins as yours truly, they may decide that, hockey is still a better pastime, and go back to bouncing • pucks off crossbars. at appears from that statement that you just can't win!) BAT'N AROUND—We hope you noticed how easily the Ottawa Rough Riders disposed of the Alouettes. Some of the fans from the capital may have been worried at the 10.7 half-time score, but we were so confident that we actually fell asleep and didn't hear the last half of the game. We were at Paris over the weekend attending a Sunday School teachers' retreat, and After listening to Gerry Godholt retell 'his deer hunting outings until 4:00 a.m., we couldn't • have stayed awake anyway . . . Perry M088,genial t Mentor of the Als was slapped with a $200 fine for publicly criticizing the officials -after last Sunday's' game it Toronto.
