Curran expects Leif improvement HURON PARK - Brian Curran has always been one to get a jump on the rest of the crowd. The Toronto Maple Leafs de- fenceman was doing just that re- cently when he was taking part in the Iluron Hockey School in Hu- ron Park to get himself ready for the Leafs training camp which is set to begin early next month. • This was Curran's second -straight year at the school and said he learned a lot from it last year and wanted to come back. He said the biggest advantage of coming to Huron Park is to get himself ready for Leafs camp. "It helped me get ready for camp last year as far as conditioning goes and even mentally because here there is not as much pressure as a training camp and we can joke around a little bit and do things like go golfing. We can't do that in the team camp," said Curran. Al Secord, of the Chicago Black Hawks, was supposed tq come to _the camp this year but had to can- cel at the last minute, leaving Cur- ran the only player at the camp last week with any substantial profes- sional experience. Curran comes to the camp to teach and to learn. He was pairedup with many players that arc Junior A calibre but who will be attending pro camps also. "I taught here last year and it really helped me out a lot. The set up here is really great. There aren't a lot of pro players 'because many of them are taking what they have learned here and starting their own school," said the seven-year N.H.L. veteran. Another reason the school has helped him out is due to the techni- cal aspect of the teaching. This school is different in that respect because most of the instructors are professionals and it comes across easier to him and they understand the technical aspects of the game. The Maple Leafs have been in a state of disarray for the last number of years and hasn't changed much recently, During the summer, team owner Harold Ballard has been fucd- ing'publicly with his family and GordStellick, so much that Stel- lick quit as General Manager say- ing he couldn't put up with Ballard any longer. Coach George Arm- strong said he didn't want to coach any more and then changed his mind and said he did and then "I think you are always hopeful in camp that you will see a better team on the ice during the season. We are all working out there to achieve the same goal, a winning hockey team, but things can change quickly in.a training camp.. - "I have a job to do and I have to let management take care of hiring a coach, now I think they will take care of us," said Curran. New fall programs planned EXETER = Along with the ine- vitable shock that the warm, sum- mer days are coming to an end, comes the realization that it is time to forget our fun -in -the -sun, sum- mer activities and' retreat indoors for fall and winter. Recreation centres in the area have worked hard to organize a va- riety of fall and winter programs and events for people of all ages. The South Huron Recreation Centre is running a number of aer- obic classes with a new option of exercising two, three or four morn- ings a week. Recreational danc8 and gymnastics are available for young tumblers as well as karate classes by Tyndall's Karate School. Ladies' and mixed volleyball leagues have also been organized, A new sport added to Exeter's line-up will be beginner baton classes which will be run by South Huron District High School stu- dent, Stephanie Hazelwood. The classes will provide youngsters ages six and up with skills such as basic twirls, marching, dance and 'discipline. SH's rec. director, Lynne Farqu- har, says that if the classes go over well enough, there is the possibili- ty bf forming a club in the future. Batons will be provided for the students but white canvas sneakers will be needed. Minor hockey, ringette and figure skating will also attract young skaters to the rink and three Preci- sion skating teams will be formed. In hopes of promoting local ser- vice clubs and businesses, the SHRC will be asking for $100 sponsors for each day of public skating. Printed cards •with the dates public "skating will be held -as well as who is sponsoring the event will be available in the fu- ture. The Lucan Community Memori- al Centre has an extremely busy ice schedule to look forward to. Power skating, minor hockey, Oldtimers hockey, figure skating and preci- sion skating will all be available, starting in the`,pext couple of weeks. Public skating in Lucan is once again quite popular and will be held 8:00 to 9:30 every Saturday night and 2:00 to 3:30 every Sunday. In the hall, Jo Reid will be teach- ing modern dance classes for young people. Basketball will be a new addition to Lucan's fall program. Medway High School will be playing some pick-up games two nights a week. The Huron Hockey School just wrapped up another successful sum- mer session at the Stephen Town- ship Arena and the arena will now be providing strictly ice programs. "They include a fast-growing fig- ure skating club, power skating, an industrial hockey league, Oldtimers hockey, girls' hockey, ringette and public skating. • The Zurich Community. Centre Brian Curran zhanged his mind back again, so the Leafs went out and hired former coach Floyd Smith as new G. M. and Doug Carpenter as coach. Curran said he tries not to let the off -ice activities. bother him but is excited about having Carpenter be- hind the bench and thinks better things are ahead for the Leafs. rime Stoppers Crime Stoppers of Huron County would like to see the following keepsake items returned to their rightful owner. ometime between 23-31 July, 1989 a thief entered a home on Montreal" Street in Goderich and stole 12 silver spoons designed .to resemble the 12 apostles and four old cgg cups with a flower design on them.
