So many have mentioned it — I thought we„'ad it after a cold spell and snow. Whatever kind of summer we have been having it is just beautiful and it can carry on. The Christmas Fair is only a week away, The Colborne Township ladies have certainly worked hard to promote cafts in their district. Now that they have had to move their location to our doorstep is a break for us. ' I loved the old, old hotel, which is now their Township Hall, that they had used for their craft show, It had a lot of charm - and something - which you don't feel in cement blocks''- but Saltford Hall is so filled with their exhibits that ,you don't notice walls or woodwork. Mrs. Shawn Dobinson will have a most interesting exhibit since she dyes her wool from the juices o'f roots- and herbs - and onion skins - and goldenrod, Do stop a "few minutes and watch her spinning. Mrs. Dobinson comes from Birr, near London. Helen and ,Melanie West of Grand, Bend have a lot of beautiful pottery and other in- teresting crafts. One of the founders of this show, Mrs. Evelyn Hardy will have .her weaving which is always beautifully- done - and many other area people have crafts of every kind you can think of to show and sell. Now is the time to buy for your, friends and relatives, who ap-. reciatE these things, P rlg, a Prec.ious .gift for Christmas --car birthday..

Going into' the game, Walters' had ..no game experience .at all in the quarterback slot, but quickly showed the confidence and ability to spark the offensive squad into action. -• His job was made easier by the offensive' line who continually opened holes for the Viking running batiks. Typical of these efforts was the one turned in by Don. Gilders at offensive centre, filling in -for injured Jed "Ding Dong" DeJong. . Doug Marshall led the GDCI scoring with two touchdowns on short yardage situations. Other Viking TD's came on Walter's two yard quarterback;; keeper, Gerry O'Brien's 50 yard oft -tackle romp; and 'a fumble recover -Si by Bernie Van Osch, in Wingham's end zone set up by a punt blocked by Al Worgan. - Steve Chase kicked two con- verts while Doug Marshall was on the receiving end of a two point conversion pass from quarterback Walters. Defensively, the Vikings held the Mustangs to a total of 22 • yards gained on the -ground. The 'Mustangs made no yardage at all passing.

Minor hockey rejects gate receipts split The Goderich Minor Hockey Association members flatly refused Monday night to accept a 60-40 split with the arena of gate receipts from Friday and Saturday night hockey games sponsored by the association. The rfusal, ,. voted `on unanimously by the GMHA members, was backed , with threat of- mass resignation by the members turning the operation of minor hockey over to the board. The 'suggestion for the split was made at a recent rec board meeting in an effort to give the arena management more stringent control over spec- tators attending the weekend games. The arena managers felt that too little control over entry to the arena was main- tained by minor hockey resulting in a large.,gathering of fans. that create problems for arena personnel. , Under the present system the GMHA Supporters Club.

He said that the costs of " timekeepers and''' >referees for league games was '- now cutting into the profits and the additional loss of revenue would eliminate any hopes of keeping minor hockey in the black. Recreation .board member Emily Crew,' also a member of the GMHA, told the meeting that she felt that when 031,-' takeover of the gate' was suggested several years ago when minor hockey " began' using the ' arena on Saturday night, the arena management .wanted nothing to do 'with the job. "They wanted no part of manning the gate then so they gave it to us," she said. "Now .they realize it is lucrative and they want to get in -on it."
