But there's one- type of in• terruption they'll never shrug off . It's the stoppage caused by irresponsible sharpshooters who blast the insulators from Hydro poles and towers. These acts of vandalism anger both Ontario Hydro and Lands and Forests officials. Persons v shooting insulators from lines may be charged with the offence of wilful damage to property under the Criminal CodeofCan• ads.. Last year the estimated cost of replacing shattered insula. tors on Hydro's high and low tension systems was $30,000. The problem is compounded by the delayed action of tnuch of the damage. Power lines may break long after the marks. man has had his fun, or dam. aged insulators may cause ser. vice interruptions the first time it. rains. And always there is the danger that some innocent person may be electrocuted or a crop°destroyed or forest fire ignited. The Department of Lands and Forests again emphasizes this fact. Persons found guilty 'under the Criminal Code of Canada of this type of vandalism are liable to heavy fine, imprison- ment, or both.

Their first loss of the season, in, their second game, happened Friday night at the Goderich arena when they "met their Waterloo" against the Siskins. The Junior "B" team from that city downed Goderich 9.4 -before a hometown crowd of about 300. A considerable ,number of penalties were assessed during the game; IL of these were committed by the Siskins and the other eight were sins committed by the Sif tos, ' The -first period was characterized by close checking, • The Siskins were held to a one.goal lead in the opening 20 minutes. In the second period, Waterloo scored another four while the Siftos managed one goal on a 15.footer by Williams, as. sisted by Paquette and MacNair. Early in the third period, with the score at 5.1, the Siftos struck rapidly for two goals; the first was scored by Jim Gratto, assisted by Mayo Paquette and Ken MacNair at the :34 second mark. The third Goderich goal came about three minutes later from Cam. Colquhoun assisted by Jim Bell and Terry O'Brien. Later, ,the Siskins again opened a barrage and before the final period was , half over, the . Waterloo -Junior "B" team had rapped in another three goals. They added a fourth at 1'7:44 to complete their scoring. Goderich Junior fB"s ended the ganie on a strong note however; the Ktncaidine line of Colquhoun Bell and *O'Brien accounted for -a fourth goal at 19:26 of the final period. Their one victory, one loss record puts Goderich fourth in the seven.team central division of OHA Junior "B" league behind the three top teams of St: Marys, Kitchener and Owen Sound. Goderich plays another home game this Friday night against the Owen Sound Greys. *** Officials of the Goderich Minor Hockey •Association are well pleased with the turnout for their first practice of the season, held last Saturday. Registrations for each of the minor league divisions equal last year's number and the total number of minor - aged hockey players enrolled has now. passed 250. A breakdown of this figure indicates the number of players -in each division: Mites - 60; Squirts - 62;. Pee.wee - 56; Ban. tams 50. 0 p Only in the two oldest .divisions of in'.no r,,,hockgy, the Midgets 6 and Bantams, is there a scarcity of applications. This year the 4 Midgets had a turnout of 18 at their Sunday morning practice 3 which obviously would indicate that this division at least, would. 2 have no trouble icing a team. So far though, only 12 applications 2 have been received from juvenile -aged hockey players in Goderich. It is not easy to find an explanation for the lack of eligible juvenile -aged hockey players in Goderich. Until they reach this stage,- the town's-hockey.playing -youngsters, boys and youths turn out enthusiastically for the various divisions of local m'nor hockey -each --season. Each year,though,it harder for. Goderich Minor Hockey officials to get enough players of juvenile cal ! . a assembled .to make a team. r , The 1966.67 juveniP Folded partway through the season. A clash between :uid players was given as the cause, Whatever the cease., u ve:,ile.aged hockey players should remem. ber that if hockey Is a favorite sport with them, and if they have the ability to • play it well, minor friction between them.. selvesandthe--coat .• uag staff'shoul...noi be..allowed-to-interwith their progress :n this sport. Their ability. to get along With the coach and their team. mates will benefit them in their im.. mediate relationships, and will enable them to play the game with more satisfaction and skill. Furthermore, the ability to work with and under the directions of a hockey team's coach and management. ,vill be required of them, regardless of how short or Tong their hockey career may be. - Looking at the picture from another angle, one can see wny there are not moi juvenile hockey players in• Goderich. At the age they qu.r:ify .or juvenile hockey, the majority of players have entered high school and some of them may,have advanced to third or fourth' form•. If they . are serious about their, studies, they will be spending a greater and greater part of their after. school hours completing homework assignments. This conflict between sports and academ'.c activities - has always existed and will probably continue to exist. ' In the final analysis, it is a choice that on1;,; the individual can make. One other thing must be said. here in support of the juveniles. ° They need and deserve recognition and support for their efforts from Goderich hockey fans. It is understandable that teen.aged hockey players become disillusioned and disheartened if, at home games . especially, -only a few spectators are present to shout encouragement or cheer their goals. ' It is excusable if only parents attend the . games played by younger categories of the minor hockey league such as the m'tes, peewees and squirts: This comment is no reflection on the quality of hockey they play; they have their thrilling moments, as any proud parent of a- minor -hockey aged youngster will testify. This aside, juvenile -aged. hockey players have developed hockey skills comparable; if not equal to those of Junior "B" level, • and as such, they rate attendance from hockey fans comparable to.the number which attend Junior "B" matches. � Y o� a Business .Directory ; a> Ronald L.

I doubt that flghts.on the ice are popular with - the average hockey fan although they do provoke a great. deal of ex. citem ent. One of, the unusual things about hockey fights is that they are triggered, as a rule, by some little thing, somethingun.° intentional. Perhaps 'that is ,to be expected in a contact sport. Ironically, fights on the ice ' quite often involve close per. sonal friends. Like last winter whereBryan Watson was with the Detroit V club. He had a good dustup with his`closest friend, John Ferguson, of the Montreal Ca.nadiens. Back when Ted Lindsay was with us, he and his pal„„; Gus Mortson, were always at it. But one of the best fights Lind. say ever had, and one of the best I ever remember seeing in hockey, was with Boston's Bill Ezinicki. Bill wasnofriend. of Ted's at the time - back in January 1951 - although the two did become quite friendly in later years. When Ezinicki would play in golf tournaments .
