Clinton News-Record, 1980-10-16, Page 10The Bayfield Cub pack had its "swim up" last Thursday night, as four Beavers joined the troop. After the ceremonies, the boys games. (Bud Sturgeon photo) Bucks look good this year Hockey season is upon us again and the defen- ding champion `Inter- mediate C' Zurich Buckeyes have taken to the ice to begin their 1980- 81 campaign. The Bucks are of particular interest t Bayfield nd area rsidents becaise many local boys, play on the team. Thedford,- Kettle Point and Grand Bend have opted to drop out of the league this season, but a new entry, the Forest Boyds have joined. The Boyds played in the Cyclone Intermediate 'D' League last season. This season, the 9,.M southern division of the local loop will be com- prised of Forest, Parkhill and Centralia College. The northern division will include Zurich, Godprich, Hensall and Exeter. The Bucks had a very. good turnout at training camp in Huron Park this fall and will again ice a strong team. Many familiar faces and many rookies vied for spots on the roster under the watchful eye of Glen Nicholson. Locals from the Bayfield area that are skating with the team include all-star defen- ceman John Graham, second year man Marvin Merner and rookie Greg Butler. Gil Latimer has expressed an interest in returning to the team this Lampoonery By Bud Sturgeon Our village, with the world's most beautiful sunsets, was again covered with a shroud of rainy weather ,as yet another holiday weekend fell by the wayside: This being the case, it is not really too unusual that nothing outstanding happened around the Hollow. With nothing else to do, I got out the big book of unusual facts and tried to find out if there was anything pertaining to Bayfield that was worth mentioning this week in the column: First off, I discovered that things are. often accomplished in a backwards manner. When the Town Hall was moved in the early_1920's onto the Spackman lots, the `exit' doors were installed backwards. Instead of opening outwards to allow a crowd to leave quickly during an emergency, they swung inwards, and therefore were back- wards. When the carpenter doing the work was made aware of this astounding discovery by a local citizen, they were quickly reversed. , Probably I shouldn't 'mention it, but after the doors were changed in order for them to fulfill their purpose, the carpenter neglected to change the rim locks and they remained on the outside. Therefore after all the diligent work that went into reversing the doors to cover the original blunder, since the doors now locked from the outside, they would have to be smashed down by the crowd anyway in order for them to leave in a hurry. That was about as funny' as the kids who liked to put a stick on the tracks at the evaporator and watch the carts of apples upset. And while we're on the topic of apples, it says here that Sam Hewson used to be a straw boss out at one of the orchards. The boys were hired to climb the trees and pick the fruit for packing in 'barrels— and for the evaporator. Sammy standing on the ground used to call for the pails to be lowered so he could dump them, but none would appear. Natui`ally as soon as he turned his back, everyone would lower their pails and call out. Sammy would turn around and say, "I never seen so many pails all at once." ' I know that right at this very moment you're .saying to yourself, "Self, that's incredible". Well don't blame me, it's, in the book! Since Hallowe'en fs drawing nigh, we see that pranksters have always abounded in the village. Some years ago Dr. Ninian Woods'bought an old English automobile which he stored in the Presbyterian Church Building on Keith Crescent. On one Hallowe'en night, a group of the local lads pushed it over the cliff where it sat for many years. As a matter of fact, the rusted - remains still lay in the bush there. Well, it looks like I've run out of space for this week and there is not even enough room to tell you which prominent Bayfield resident used to go crazy every seven years or who it was that 'ate cornflakes and could +$$$+ in a pillbox.' Next week, who knows? t. - season, and Tim West is still undecided as to his future as far as this year is concerned. In an exhibition game 'played last Thursday at the Huron Park Arena, the Buckeyes spotted the Centralia College team a 7-1 lead and then came roaring back with 10 unanswered goals (seven in tie third period), to down the Crusaders by an 11-7 score. Sunday evening in the regular season opener, the Bucks travelled to' Parkhill to battle the North Middlesex Mer- chants •and came away with a 6-4 victory. Scoring details were not available by press time. • This season we hope to cover" most of the Buckeye games. and provide scoring statistics, pictures and articles weekly. If you can't wait for the paper, 'come on out to the arena and cheer the team on in its quest for a third straight league cham- pionship. 1 1 mar aim me ow ow — ® `'_ 1 Kawasaki ■ # SNOWMOBILES 1 and Motorcycles NWV 83 QA°N{NriQD FXErtF4 MT CARMEL Ganef TT r HURON RQ 11 5 ,' m COIN tPv r CORNER stGN LUCAN ` b,,, !vt LONDON* pAND RENO N rt, HOURS: MON, • SAT. 10-10/SUN. 12-6 CDU�wasT rill CARMEL z 1 1 a, ow iam m 111 YAMAHA SERVICE AND PARTS Cub Pack SWIM up Last Thursday evening was a special night for four members of the Beavers, as they `swam up', and became mem- bers of the 1st Bayfield Cub Pack.
