Teams monopolize
goose -eggs at
two tournaments
BELMORE--If you can star as
the lowest scorers, then Bel-
more Boys were really the stars
on Saturday! Two of tt>eteams,
the .Squirts and the PeeWees
competed at tournaments at
Mount Forest and Goderich, re-
spectively.
After winning last week, the
Squirts returned to play'Cale-
donia and got slaughtered 16-0.
In Goderich, the PeeWees were
slapped down 10-0 by the Hen-
sail team. So no one else got
the chance to use the goose -
eggs on the sctoreboard.
Ah well, the Belmore boys
have done well all season; you
can't be good all all the time.
And learning how to lose with
a smile' is just as important as
winning! .
