Blyth girls win volleyball title

of the game in the first minute of
period three as he one-timed a
perfect pass from Ryan Chamney
behind the Mooretown puck stop
per. Ryan and Henry then teamed
up for Blyth’s final goal as Ryan
pounced on a loose puck in the slot
with the assist from Henry Bos.
Blyth advanced to the champion
ship game with this solid 6-3
triumph. This was perhaps Blyth’s
most exciting game this season as
the action and the skating stayed in
high gear for the full three periods.
Blyth met up with Ripley in the
Championship game on Sunday
afternoon as Blyth tried to avenge
an earlier loss to Ripley in the
Wingham Silver Stick Tourney.
Ripley had other plans however, as
they scored early and often on their
way to crushing the boys from
Blyth 9-4.
Ripley led 3-1 less than two
minutes into the game and they
never looked back. Brian McNichol
sent Jason Rutledge and Scott
Arthur in on a two-on-one break for
Blyth’s only first period goal as
Scott converted Jason’s pass into a
goal.
Ripley scored two shorthanded
goals and one powerplay goal in the
second period as they rolled up an
8-2 lead. Blyth’s second period goal
also came on the powerplay as
Christopher Howson finished off a
passing play from Ryan Chamney
and Henry Bos.
Brian McNichol scored an unas
sisted power play goal 32 seconds
into the third frame and Ryan
Chamney completed Blyth’s scor
ing 35 seconds later after a pass
from Christopher Howson. Blyth
put up a good effort in the third but
Ripley scored late for a 9-4 cham
pionship win. The Blyth Atoms
Cousins Peggy Procter [left] and Sophia Maio are dwarfed by Ken Shortreed’s giant Belgian horses during a day of
winter fun on January 7 which included a sleigh ride and making taffy in the snow. The day was a surprise event for
three generations of the Procter family, the result of a purchase of the Shortreed’s donation to the Blyth Festival Dinner
Auction last November by the girls’ grandfather, Ross Procter. Peggy is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Cam Procter of
RR 5, Brussels, and Sophia is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Tony Maio of Aurora.

Dancing is from 8-12. The Pee
Wee’s are set to steam up the
dance floor as they have cancelled
some recent hockey practices, and
instead, they have been renting the
“Dirty Dancing’’ video. Although
Pee Wee coach Gary Courtney
readily admits that he bears an
uncanny physical resemblance to
“Dirty Dancing’ star Patrick
Swayze, he still has a couple of
dance steps to learn before Satur
day night. That alone should be
worth the price of admission.

here it is only a quick jump to the
realization that in any round of
inflation there are both winners
and losers. That is, while some
people are suffering from inflation,
other people are benefitting and it
is this realization of what the true
picture of inflation is like which
causes a great deal of annoyance.
Who, you may ask, wins and who
loses? A fair question and one
which deserves an answer. In the
winner’s circle are borrowers,
homeowners, members of strong
unions, governments, speculators
who happen to guess right and
those with monopoly or near
monopoly power. On the losers’
side are lenders, small business
men, unorganized labour, espe
cially on the unskilled or semi
skilled side, people living on fixed
incomes, students and senior citi
zens whose incomes, while not

Whiners, Nikki Snell and the
Hustlers, Erin Bolger.
The Hustlers and Strike Force
played each other in the frist game
of the semi-finals. Game two of the
semi-finals was the Ramblers vs.
the Hustlers. The winners of these
two games were the Hustlers and
the Ramblers who proceeded to the
championship game. The winning
team was the Ramblers.
Mr. Livermore was the score
keeper for all games.
Our girls’ vollyeball team has
been selected and the first tourna
ment was held at St. Joseph’s
Separate School on January 21.
At that tournament, the Blyth
girls’ team was named the tourna
ment championship winners after
defeating Vanastra, Clinton P.S.,
Clinton Christian, Holmesville and
St. Joseph’s Separate schools.
The Blyth team consisted of:
Karin Lee (C), Heidi Scrimgeour

fixed, do not keep up with price
increases. In other words inflation
results in a redistribution of income
from the second group to the first.
Injustice indeed!
If that were not enough, the very
categories of people who fall be
hind in any inflationary spiral are
the least capable of reversing the
process and thus things are likely
to get worse before they get better.
However, an understanding of
what causes inflation and how you
can cope with it will help to
alleviate some of the pain and, in
the next column, I am going to
explain just that. In the meantime,
if you take a trip to another country
and find that prices have gone up
as well, this will serve to remind
you that inflation is a worldwide
phenonomen and is just as insi
dious there as here. If misery loves
company, you have plenty of the
latter.

Carrots were all the rage during
the Second World War when they
were said to be the cause of the
British RAF pilots’ amazing ability
to spot and shoot down German
planes at night. Of course the real
reason for the pilots’ skill was a
new secret weapon - radar, but
Winston Churchill apparently per
petrated the carrot story in the
hopes of keeping the existence of
radar a secret from the enemy.
