Blyth Yew arch By :lake Reiner liar a game alanasst com- pletely devoid of action, Blyth edged by Wellesley 1 a in a contest between the two "D" division teams Tuesday morning. lyth scored the game's only goal at 6:28 when Drew Allen converted a nice centering pass from Larry Honking and put the puck behind Wellesley goalie Jeff Gerber. In the first period, play, was, for the most part, in the Wellesley end although Blyth never really generated much in the way of a concentrated offense. In the second period, play was in both ends but it was scrambly and good scoring chances were few and far between. Earaly in the third period, Blyth put on good pressure but were unable to increase their lead because of some good goaltending by Randy Leis of Wellesley. Wellesley then put on a bit of pressure themselves but could not score. Brian Gerber had a great op- portunity to tie up the game but missed an open net when Blyth goalie Michael Henry was down and out anter stopping a breakaway chance. With time running out, Wellesley pulled their goalie for an extra attacker. But they could not put on any pressure and Blyth had three chances to assure them- selves of victory but missed the open net, all three times.

The local Blyth couple celebrated their golden anniversary on March 15 and are preparing for a family celebration in April. (Shelley McPhee photo) Mansel and Mary Gook, together for 50.years y Shelley McPhee A split-up couldn't keep Mansel Cook and Mary Rodgers apart. The young East Wawanosh couple were dating back in 1920's. After a year of courting they broke up but their young romance had a happy ending. A recon- ciliation was made, the happy couple married and today they are celebrating their 50th year of wedded bliss. On March 15, 1933 the finest clothes and china were brought out for the wedding. The ceremony took place at the Rodger family home just before noon and Mrs. Cook fondly remembers the wreath of cedar and roses that created a beautiful arch under which the bride and groom stood. She wore a long blue dress. "Mansel had a nice_Ravy suit," she recalled. Today ns. Cook only has one regret, they didn't have a honeymoon.. However the years have been good to the Cooks and they have enjoyed trips around Ontario and across Canada. In the early days, when the Cooks first married, there simply wasn't enough money for honeymoons. After the wedding day the newlyweds settled into the East Wawanosh farm and got down to the business of managing a mixed farming operation and raising a family. It was hard work, determination and devotion that kept couples like the Cooks together. Mrs. Cook stressed, "We stood the rough road together. Marriage works as long as you can get over the rough times." Disap:ttinted in the high rate of marriage and divorce in recent times she added, ..Today the young people haven't got what it takes. Forty per cent divorce is terrible. So many have wee children and having families part, well, that's terrible." Family is the most important and the most joyous part of the Cook's life. They are the proud parents of four children, Mrs. William (Frances ) Newman of Walkerton, Ken of Seaforth, Ray of RR 4, Walton and Paul of RR 1, Clinton. There's seven grandchildren and two new great grandchildren to add to the list. "It's so grand," Mrs. Cook enthused, "so many people's children live so far away, mine are so close." The family will be joining with the Cooks on April 30 at the Triple K Restaurant, in Blyth for a family dinner in celebration on the 50th anniversary. In the meantime Mansel and Mary Cook are busy repain- ting and wallpapering their RR 1, Auburn home for the big event.
