HomeMy WebLinkAboutTimes-Advocate, 1983-11-02, Page 13Senior cagers hit semi-finals South Huron's senior girls basketball team has finished their league season with a se- cond place 9 and 1 win -loss record togaina bye into the Huron -Perth semi-finals. Last week's play saw two league wins over Seaforth and Stratford Central. The Cen- tral Ramblers didn't prove a great threat as Exeter, not playing extremely well, won 37-27. Faye Gaiser had 10 points in that final league game. Over the weekend the girls played informal games against Assumption and St. Anne's in Windsor. Senior coach Terry O'Rourke believes his team has the ability to go all the way to that tangible but in past, elusive Huron -Perth championship. The team's greatest obstacle is Goderich. Earlier in the season the Vikings were victorious 40-32 but O'Rourke feels that is was one of their worst games especially with valuable second -year player, Alice Dietrich fouling out eE.rly. '.'he semi-final game will be played next Monday or Tues- day against one of the win- ners of the greater final round.

Panther juniors in H-Psemi-finals South Huron Junior Pan- ther Football team satisfied a two-year thirst for revenge with their 28-0 win over Listowel Thursday. Last year and the year before Listowe: defeated South Huron at this championship. The Panther's desire to beat the team which has twice removed them from playoff action was played in Listowel n good weather and under good conditions. In the first half, Listowel played strongly and held South Huron to a lead of only 7-0. however, in the latter part of the game, the Pan- thers took advantage of Listowel's weaknesses to drive their way home with ad- ditional 21 points. Bill Fisher carried the ball 19 times, three of which resulted in touchdowns. Scott Miller also played a strong game with a four for seven passing record, which resulted in the gain of around a hundred yards. He also scored a touchdown. Brian Topp rounded out the scoring by kicking four successful converts. Aaron Bollock made 17 tackles, a rather consistant figure consindering he made 18 in the last Panther match. John Hamilton also played impressively making 14 tackles. This game was the last league game the Panthers will play this season. Their 6 and 0 record places them in first place. Playoff action starts tomorrow at 2:00 at the high school. This will be a semi-final against Listowel. Now is the time to make sure your home is ready for winter. A tuned -up furnace works more effi- ciently and uses Tess fuel. Here are some easy and inexpensive ways to get more from your heating system. Start the heating season off with a clean filter on your furnace and clean or replace it at least once a month during the winter. If your home has baseboard, fan -forced, or wall -mounted heaters, take your vacuum cleaner to them now and occasionally during the winter. A glass or metal fire -screen installed on the fireplace will help control the amount of heat wasted up the chimney. When you're not using the fireplace, close the fire -screen doors and the damper. If you don't intend to use the fire- place at all this winter, it's a good idea to seal the opening. Take a look at your furniture arrangement. Be sure that heating outlets aren't blocked by furni- ture, as this can impede air circulation. If your home is heated by baseboard units, keep win- dow drapes at least 6" above the unit. Check to make sure your weatherstripping is around all doors and windows and in good condition. Seal any cracks by caulking. Weather- stripping and caulking cost little and pay off quickly.

Pauline Brand scored twice with Carla Soloman and Ken- dra Arthur each scored one Host Hawks tonight Irisi. will twic• in Junior The Lucan Irish came up with two victories in three starts in the Ontario Hockey Association Junior D k,..stern grouping this week. The Irish edged Mount Brydges 3-2 Tuesday night and were downed 7-4 by the Belmont Bombers in Lucan Wednesday night and in Tavistock Friday night edged the Ontario championship Braves 8-6. The Irish are at home tonight Wednesday at the Lucan arena at 8 p.m. to the Exeter Hawks and travel to Belmont for a Sunday night contest. In Tuesday's 3-2 win over Mount Brydges Mark Bannon notched the winning goal on an unassisb d effort. The other Irish markers came as Jeff Skinner con- verted a pass from Lester Arts and John Medd hit on a three-way combination with Jamie Shipley and Arts. Replying for Mount Brydges were Ted Clark and David O'Brien. Leading the Irish scoring attack in the los- ing cause against Belmont was Lester Arts with a two goal effort. Arts fired the first goal of the game on passes from John Medd and Rob Hardy and shot the fourth goal for his club with assists going to Mark Bannon and Hardy. The other Lucan scores came from the sticks of Steve Glenn and Jeff Skinner. Get- ting one assist each were Bob Thirlwall, Brad Hodgins, John Medd' and Rob Hardy. Jeff Stock was the leading Belmont scorer with a four goal performance. Scoring in single fashion were Darryl Ireland, Chris Waldick and John Osborne. Third period goals by Brent Bannerman and Lester Arts propelled the Irish to their 8-6 Friday win over Tavistock. The goal by Arts was unassisted while captain Paul Wraith drew an assist on Ban- nerman's score. In the first period Banner- man and Wraith hit the Snowmobile drags at Hully Gully track About 1,000 people watched about 200 of the best snowmobile drag racers from all over Ontario fight for the grass drag crown in each respective class. The crowds were also treated to some wild action off the drag strip too. The small lake at Hully Gully was the scene of a skim or swim display of snowmobile watercross. World record holder Greg Balchin of Napean, Ontario, showed off his ability to do the nearly impossible - keep a snowmobile afloat and going over water with no special equipme:,t. He did circles, figure eights, and topped off the day by giving Hully Gully owner Randy Collins a ride across the pond. Unfortunately both Balchin and Collins got a soaking as Balchin accident- ly hit the safety cut-off switch and stopped the machine. Several amateur skimmers fr3rn as far away as Bracebridge were also on hand - and they all got soak- ed. Included in the day's pro- gram were three-wheeler drags, as well as a celebrity challenge race featuring George Hewitt of TV's Open Roads, plus personalities from CHOK Radio, Sarnia, CKGL Radio, Kitchener, BX -93 Radio, London, and CKNX Radio, Wingham. The three-wheeler events were well i-eceived by par- ticipants and spectators both, but the real highlight of the day was the incredible speeds the snowmobiles reach in 660 feet from a standing start.
