Unfortunately there weren’t enough such opportunities and the Bulls dropped a 3-2 loss. Sports Bullettes win title with 10-7 victory Bulls win, lose at home The Brussels Junior “D” Bulls played a highly entertaining game Friday night winning their home opener 5-4 over Seaforth. The game featured two evenly matched teams, excellent goaltending and the outcome was in doubt until the final whistle. Brussels opened the scoring midway through the first period as Andy Nethery tipped home a Craig Robertson point shot. Minutes later Steve Fritz and Nigel Taylor combined to set up Dwaine Nicholls and in the final minutes of play Marty Rutledge scored on the powerplay from Brian Campbell and Ratdy Bauman for a 3-0 lead after one period.

BRUSSELS INDUSTRIAL HOCKEY LEAGUE REGISTRATION BEFORE OCTOBER 25 CALL DARWIN DUCHARME 887-6749 MURRAY McARTER 887-6621 again involved in a one goal game losing to the visiting Wellesley Applejacks 3-2. Once more the game featured two evenly matched clubs and excellent goaltending. Wellesley scored the only goal of the first period and held the lead until the 7:08 mark of the second when Ron Strome scored on the powerplay from Craig Robertson and Brian Campbell. At 15:59 a great individual effort by Paul Coultes from Ron Buchanan gave the Bulls a 2-1 lead after 40 minutes. Murray Townsend’s goaltending held Brussels in the game as they were outshot 15-6 in the second period. Although Brussels took only five penalties in the game they proved costly as Wellesley scored twice on the powerplay in the third period for the 3-2 victory. The Bulls were outshot in the contest by a final count of 36-22. The Bulls biggest problem is their top goalscorers have the “Blacksmith” touch around the net. One would wonder how they can hit a two-inch goal post repeatedly when they cannot hit 24 square feet of net. The Bulls will be on the road to Exeter Friday night for an 8:30 start and return home to face'the Lucan Irish Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. Brussels Bullettes defeated At wood Angels to win the Intermedi ate Women’s championship with a 10-7 win Oct. 6 in Brussels. Sandy Huether went all the way pitching her team to the title recording three strike-outs. Gail Semple helped the cause with a fourth inning home run. Atwood took a 1 -0 lead in the top of the first inning but Brussels came back to tie the score in their Pool vandals worry recreation committee The Brussels, Morris and Grey Recreation Committee is seeking help in putting a stop to recent vandalism at the BMG Community Swimming Pool in Brussels, “before somebody gets hurt.” Neil Gowing, vice-chairman of the recreation committee, said that recently there have been several incidents of vandalism at the pool, consisting of “one or more kids” getting inside the pool enclosure and throwing debris into the pool. In one incident, Mr. Gowing said that the vandals had apparently thrown weights, used to hold the pool cover in place, into the pool, which resulted in the cover also slipping into the pool, along with dead leaves and other debris which had collected on top of the cover since the pool closed at the end of August. ■Mr. Gowing said that the incidents are “a real shame, since this is ratepayers’ money which is being wasted, ’ ’ but added that the committee ’ s greater worry is that a childcouldslip into the pool, be trapped by the heavy pool cover, and “never get out.” He added that “a couple of kids have been seen around the pool by people who could probably identify them,” but added that the recrea tion committee would rather that Ontario produces more fruit and vegetables than any other pro vince . Over 40 per cent of Canadian fruit is grown here. BRUSSELS CURLING CLUB FUN JITNEY COME HELP US CELEBRATE OUR 25th ANNIVERSARY SAT.

Atwood took the lead again with a single run in the third but Brussels broke the game open with four runs in each of the fourth and fifth innings. After scoring once in the fifth, Atwood made the game close again in the sixth when they scored four runs. Brussels added one more run in the bottom of the sixth and Sandy Huether shut down the Atwood offence in the top of the seventh to seal the victory. parents in the area took steps to stop any further incidents before the police have to be called in. It is suspected that the culprits climbed over the chain-link fencing around the pool to gain access, raising fears thatthey may have also damaged the fragile solar panel on the roof of the pool deck shelter; Mr. Gowing added that a panel had also been pried loose on the fence at the river side of the pool, leaving a hole big enough for a child to crawl through. The fence has since been repaired, and “No Trespassing” signs erected at the property.
