Museum seeks hockey artifacts
The Huron County Museum
wants hockey artifacts. The
museum will be documenting
Huron County's rich hockey
heritage with an exhibit scheduled
to run for 18 months starting Jan.
17.
The first period of the exhibit
will focus on the early developmenl
of hockey and go on to present a
history of how the sport has grown
in the county, including
recognizing the area's early hockey
pioneers.
The second period will open in
April and will display artifacts
from the Hockey Hall of Fame and
the Royal Canadian Mint. It will
focus on Canada's hockey success
world-wide and highlight those
from Huron who have contributed
to that success.
The third period will open in
March 1999 to coincide with the
50th anniversary of the Young
Canada Week PeeWee hockey
tournament in Goderich. The
exhibits will celebrate the
tournament history and also focus
on the growth of the Western
Ontario Athletic Association
(WOAA).
Check out closets and attics for
old hockey relics which could be
displayed in this exhibit. Items of
interest could be old team photos,
primitive and weathered equip
ment, programs, championship
crests and banners as well as
Young Canada Week tournament
souvenirs.
John Stewart is putting together a
short history of the Blyth arena and
a history of hockey in Blyth.
Anyone who can be of help is
asked to give him a call at home
523-4528 or business 523-4545.
Doug Chamney is gathering
unique momentos concerning
hockey in Blyth to be displayed at
the museum. Team photos,
banners, jackets, sweaters, crests,
etc. have already been collected but
he is still searching for any photos
and Blyth sweaters prior to the
mid-1960s. If someone has
something of interest, or any other
unique memorabilia, call him at

YOUR NEWSPAPER:
The link to your community
went down awkward on his ankle
and Darin Alviano got hit by a
puck three seconds into the game,
which left the Bulls with even less
bodies since Andy Agar was out
with the flu and Gary Staples is out
with a knee injury suffered the
week before.
Jamie Thomas got the start for
the Bulls and was solid in net.
After getting into Brussels very
early Sunday morning the Bulls
loaded onto the bus again for a 1
p.m. start in Walkerton. A win
against the Blackhawks would put
the Bulls in sole possession of
fourth place, but this feat will have
to wait for another day.
Walkerton scored the first two
goals of the game before Brad
Brown scored for the Bulls assisted
by Jeff Sauve and Mark Wilson to
make the score 2-1 after the first
period.
The Blackhawks went up 4 - 1
when they scored two goals, both
on the powerplay, but it was time
for the Bulis to stage a come back.

After a Walkerton player took a
five-minute major penalty for
checking from behind, the Bulls
took advantage of the situation and
scored twice on the power play.
Steve Henderson scored from Jason
Heipel, then Curtis Nichol, scored
with a helper from Henderson.
With a great individual effort by
Heipel he was able to tie the score
at 4 at 3:45 of the second, assisted
by Jeffrey.
Dan Balog started in goal, but
was pulled in favour of Thomas at
the 15:17 mark when Walkerton
scored their fourth goal. Thomas
did not disappoint and was not
scored on in his period and a half of
work to give the Bulls a well-
deserved tie.
Morrissey took a dirty slash and
left the game favouring his elbow.
The next game for the Bulls will
be at home this Sunday at 2 p.m.
when the Kincardine Bulldogs are
in town.
