Salt freighters began ptvThg the waters of the local harbor and Lake Huron nearly three weeks ahead of schedule and now the Goderich Sailing Club are beginning to make their plans for a summer on the water. This- Saturday' the first •club activity of the new season will be held at_ the Maitland Golf and Country Club. Beginning at 2:30 p.m. members, and those interested in becoming club members for the new season, are invited to attend a lecture orethe rules of sail racing. ezr The local yacht club has held weekly competition for some time now but organizers felt discussion of racing rules with those having a deep knowledge of sailing competition would he beneficial to both new members and those who have taken part in club races over the years. This evening Dr. Donald Salter will speak to sailing en- thusiasts at the Goderich and District Collegiate Institute cafeteria regarding his trans Atlantic• -sailing adventure. Dr. Salter is a professor at. the University of Waterloo. The meeting is set to get underway at 8:00 p.m. and is open to the public. During the upcoming season the local club will host three major regattas- in addition to their regular club competitions. . The first will be held June 16 when the Canada. Cup race, in- volving the local club; Bayfield and Grand Bend, is to be hosted locally. The race is' hosted each year by the club who won the race the previous Year and in 1972 Ted Lane brought home the honors for Goderich. This will be the first year Goderich has been the scene for the Canada Cup. The' third annual Fireball Regatta will be held July 21 and 22. This event consists of a series of three races over a two day period with the winner decided on the basis of his two best times; . August 25 will see the second annual Dominion ` Road Machinery Regatta which is sponsored by the local DRMCo 'Company. The regular club racing, season will start May 6 this year with an extra race each week over last year. Each Sun- day morning the club will race its full course as usual but organizers hope this year to add a shorter race Wednesday evenings'to put more, activity into the club, ..

Recently the Goderich Yacht Club' received a donation of four "Mini -macs", a small day sailer, for use in the instruction program and organizers hope that another three to four small boats will be made available to the program through personal loans. %The sailing program will be aimed for the most part at young people but Mr. Dymond suggests that anyone interested in the classes would be more' than welcome. Instructors are available, some:.from within Goderich and some from outside, and it is hoped the. program will get un- derway sometime in June. COUNTRY CLUB After months of preparation, the Bennriller Foresters and their ladies certainly did them- selves -proud- with the Curling Championships held here last week. The esprit de corps among this group was something to behold. Congratulations to these dedicated men and women for bringing this honor to Goderich. Since the event is reported in the Signal -Star this week, 1 shall not go. into detail. The Stan Stokes Trophy emblematic of "most sportsmanlike conduct by a team" was presented' to the Blyth entry by Stan 6tokes. Receiving the trophy is Blyth captain Dale Whitfield. The presentation took place at Young Canada Week. SPORTS ACTION LINE by MORLEY LEEKING JR. , r As the N.H.L. playoffs opened yesterday, I felt I should look back to .my predictions frorij October 12, 1972- for the final stan- dings and see how I did. U,nfortunatety,„I,,didn't fare..tpo well, in _ the Eastern Division as far as -the standings go - I only correctly placed Vancouver and N.Y. Islanders (big deal eh?) - however, I . did select three of the four teams that did make the playoffs. In The West; I as a little more successful. I picked the four teams that would Make the playoffs (except that I had Philadelphia picked for fourth and not second). Similarl:v, I had Pittsburgh chosen for fifth. but the Atlanta Flames and their great freshman year threw off the remainder of my picks for the Western Division. Here's how my playoff predictions go. Montreal will defeat Buf- falo in 5 games. Boston will win in 6 games over New„York. Chicago will heat St- Louis in 5 games and Philadelphia will take 6 to dispose of Minnesota. Let's see how these choices go before I go any farther. The Goderich Sailors trail Petrolia "Selects" :3-17in games but the Sailors certainly aren't giving up the ship yef. A noted fan of the team, . one- Bill' Kirkey told me that the Sailor will take it. We hope so -Bill. Ice -Chips: I still maintain my prediction of early January .that Red Kelly will be in Toronto for next season. -John McClellan's health and the Leafs; iioor showing in '72 will be the reasons for the switch./..Now that the "Ontario Nationals" are playing out of Toronto, maybe the Leafs will find it a little hardej to Sell all their season tickets.... Leafs finished the season as "spoilers" heating Detroit G-4 last Thursday and that defeat shelved the Wings. They then beat Boston 7-3 and tied the Black .Hawks 4--4. in Chicago Espo won the Art Ross Trophy for the leading point-scorer....Dryden, Masse and Thomas won the Vezina see you next week.

Now come spring, everyone's fancy turns to golf!! Charlie is as busy as a bee getting the course in readiness for the eager beavers -and while Charlie can do almost anything -he cannot. rush nature. Therefore, members are respectfully requested to steer clear of the golf greens and please keep the canines off the course. All the time and effort being put into the preparation of the course will be in vain unless we show a healthy respect for the tender young shoots. While the response to the tennis ad was ,encouraging, the Board of Directors feel that more interest wilh, have to be shown to warrant the expense of putting in tennis courts. So the tennis coupon will appear in the S.S. for the next two weeks and we ask you to fill in and return it to us if you have not already done so.
