Much attention has been focus- ed reeently on the nine Wingham Scouts planning their hip to the world Jamboree in Norway this year and Wingham and area resi- dents have extended a generous helping hand to help make their trip possible. But there are an- other 109 Cubs and Scouts in this area whose many activities and programs need financial support also if they are to continue. The bowl-a-thon will be held April 19, and the boys will start canvassing for pledges during the week of April 2.

If a bowler was sponsored for one game at one per paint, he would have col- lected $1.09. If he was sponsored for two games, with 109 in the first and 115 in the second, he would collect the $1.09 plus $1.15 for a total of $2.24 - The pledge sheets are designed for three games, but the decision remains with the sponsors whether they wish to sign for one, two or all three games. The Cubs and Scouts should be able to ans- wer any other questions. Any boy that is a member of the Youth Bowling Council should also be able to provide information on his bowling average. This is one of the few oppor- tunities for the Cubs, Scouts, leaders and the group committee to work together as a complete unit and they ask the support of the area residents in this en- deavor. Midget: Tournament voted, huge success Record attendance, a decrease in injuries, great referees and fantastic hockey all • cast their ballots to vote the 1975 Wingham Midget Hockey Tournament a great success. Tournament co-ordinator Al Harrison said "all in all it was terrific . . . the best ever." He said that receipts indicated a 30 per cent increase in attendance over last year. More gratifying, hoWever, are the favorable com- ments received from visiting teams and fans. Injuries de- creased from last year, with only six players injured in over 40 games played during the tourna- ment. Ed Deer, in charge of obtaining referees for the tournament, also said it was "one of the better tournaments I got involved hi." He explained that ,mue.h of his A VICTORIOUS WINGHAM RINK poses proudly with the Hiram Walker Trophy present- ed at the curling bonspiel last Saturday. They were: second Roily Kaufman, lead Shirley Walker, vice Shirley Kaufman and skip Ray Walker. satisfaction was due to the work and help from the many referees he recruited for the tournament. He explained that he started his job about two months before the start, with a need for 86 referees. "Later. we ran into a few can- cellations and needed replace- ments. But that's where the local guys come in handy," he said. He asked that special thanks be of- fered on his behalf to refs Brace Griffin, Harvey Black, Wayne Hopper, Andy McBride, Bob Jones and Bill Kerr for help "above and beyond the call of duty." His praise for all the WOAA, OMHA and ORA quali- fied carded referees, however, was unbounded. He said that he also received many comments from out-of-town coaches on the excellence and competence of the referees. vcreation Report By 'Jim Ward Midget Tournament This is the eight midget tourna- ment in which your director has been involved, and the eleventh since its inception.
