Similarily to previous years the carnival will be staged in two shows. They start at 2 p.m. ill the afternoon and 7:30 in the evening. The theme this year will be based on "Fads and Fantasies". Numbers by the more than 100 members.. of the local figure skating club will include Garfield the cat, robins doing the bird dance, a Pot of Gold at the end of the rainbow, a Grand Prix race, clowns and a local rendition of Olivia Newton John's favorite song • "Let's Get Physical". The featuredskaterat both carnival shows will be a top notch novice skater Shelley Smith from London. The Exeter novice and pre -novice precision skating teams will be performing along with the Parkhill junior precision team. Susan Birmingham, Susan Tieman, Michele Aunger and Debbie Down of the Exeter club are skating with the Parkhill team. Agnes Aunger and Barb McLelland are carnival conveners this year. Gary Birmingham is club presi- dent, Peter Aunger is vice-president, Janet Wedlake is the secretary and Frances Kints handles the duty of treasurer. Marg Carey is. back as club professional and she is being assistedby Steve Wong and Brenda Pincombe. The carnival is one of the few fund raising projects the figure skating club has during the year and your support by buying a ticket and attending this popular event will be more than appreciated. While speaking of carnivals, the Zurich and area figure skating club will hold their annual carnival at the Zurich arena Sunday afternoon, February 20 at 2 p.t'h. How about overtime? The subject of possible overtime periods in the Na- tional Hockey league comes to the discussion point a number of times during a winter season, but club direc- tors fail to approve a change. Of the first 516 games played in the NHL so far this season, 85 have ended in ties. That's about 16 percent of all games played. There is a drastic difference when looking at the standings of the Central hockey league where overtime is played. Only two of 138 games have ended in ties after overtime has been played. We don't know the length of ,their extra periods, but, would guess it is 10 minutes. The International league with eight teams in Michigan, Ohio, Indiana and Wisconsin also uses over- time periods, but, they have a little different system in allocating points. If a team loses in overtime they are - given one point. To date this year, 37 games have gone into extra play and 14 of these have beep decided ip overtime with the losing team picking up a single point. In the Western Junior "D" league which has pro- vided a lot of high scoring games this year, the percen- tage of ties is at about only 10 percent. The league and the players association uses two reasons in trying to oppose overtime in the NHL. They cite the possibility of missing planned flights to their next destination for a game the next night and problems with television programming if games ran over their expected expiry time. Fun in Kirkton-Woodham The annual Kirkton-Woodham Winter Carnival is quickly approaching and will again offer a wide varie- ty of sports entertainment for -young and old alike. Tile carnival opens Friday night, February 11 with the crowning of the Snow Queen followed by a dance. Saturday's novelty events get underway at 12 noon and will include cackle berry races, bale and toboggan races, flag, pickup and cloverleaf barrel races. Another dance will be held at night. A combined church service for the Anglican and United Church congregations in Kirkton and Woodham will be held at the Community Centre at 9:45 a.m. • The service is followed by a pancake and sausage dinner at 11 a.m. and more outdoor activities including a snowmobile and crosscountryskiingpoker rally, horse drawn sleigh rides and dog sled races for adults and a '100 yard dash for children and their dogs. • Admission to the grounds are free Saturday and Sunday with the only charges being for the dances and the dinner. Here's a chance to get to see lots of outdoor events and get some healthy fresh air at the same time. OHL .guide out For the first time ever the Ontario Hockey League is making its official guide available to all media across the province and we received a copy this week.

The guide is available at any junior "A" team arena or by sending $2 which includes postage and handling to the Ontario Hockey League, 655 Dixon Road, Rex - dale, Ontario M9W 1J4. Optimistic Jays We were fortunate to be able to attend the recep- tion in •London Thursday when a number of Toronto Blue Jays were in town. Manager Bobby Cox, pitching coach Al Widmar and players Lloyd Moseby, Ernie Whitt and Buck Martinez were more than excited about their club's chances in the American league eastern division this year. included in a publicity film they show on their tour, is a statement by Kansas City Royals manager Dick Hauser predicting the Jays will win their division championship. During the 1982 season the Toronto club defeated Kan- sas City in nine of 12 games which probably accounts for Hauser's prediction. • We will include comments from the Jays in this col- umn next week.
