Local hockey plans for the com-
ing season are progressing, and an
intermediate team has been enter-
ed in category "C" homebrew of
the WOAA. The local sextette will
be grouped with Kiacardine, Port
Elgin, Wiarton, Chesley and Han-
•ver, all, towns '
noted for. good • '
hockey in past years.
The team has had a couple of
practice sessions during the past
week, and is shaping up to the
point where Wingham fans can
expect some pretty hot ice activity.
Perhaps one of the best features
of this season's team is the + fact
that it is composed, entirely of
local athletes, which overcomes the
old sore of too many imports.
