(-Wendy Somerville photo) Win opener over Clinton Warriors Rams havea new name and a new coach Last year, the Atlas Rams finished in third place in the 10 team men's Blyth broornball league. This year however, there are some major changes with the team. First of all, the team's name has been changed to the Blyth Inn. Also this year, the Blyth Inn team has a new head coach in Ron Ritchie. Perhaps most important, is that the team only has seven players returning from last year's squad. Despite all these changes, the Blyth Inn demonstrated it will be just as strong this year, as they recorded a'2-0 vic- tory over the Clinton Warriors in their season -opener last Tuesday night. Murray Black and Herb Govier connected for one goal each, while Scott Machan assisted on both for the Blyth Inn team. In further action on Tuesday night, the Blyth Baintoneers and Lucknow battled to a 2-2 overtime tie. Lucknow grabbed a 2-0 lead early in the game, when Donna Drennan and Arlene Turner scored one goal each, with the assists going to Janice Buist and Dianne Golley. Anita Bromley set up Patty Schoemaker for a goal to cut Lucknow's lead in half and then Anita tied the game for the Baintoneers, as she scored on an unassisted effort. A hat -trick by Arnold Pease led the 8th Liners to a narrow 3-2 victory over the Auburn Falcons. Ken Bird collected two assists, while John Gibbings had one for the winners. Len Kohnert and John Verwey had one goal apiece for the Falcons, while Eric Scott had one assist. Another ladies' game saw three unassisted goals by June Bakker, Marg Anderson and Cheryl Walker carry Belgrave to a 3-0 victory over Brussels. Doug de Boer's two goals were all the Lakelet Hornets needed as they posted a 2-0 shutout win over the Goderich Oarsmen.

Inside the Lighthouse Gift Shop, work is underway to create a perfect setting for brightly painted, shiny wooden music boxes that will soon line every conceivable shelf and cupboard ir; the store. Inside these boxes will be various musical movements that will create a delightfully sounding little mechanism call- ed a music box. Orval Ternan has been selling and making music boxes for 15 years and judging by the glint in eye he won't be giving up the profes- sion for a long time. After he served five years in the air force, Orval focused his attention on industry, working for multi -national organizations and moving up the ladder of success. According to Mrs. Ternan, Orval did so well in his profession, that he was of great demand and this forced the Ternan family to be constantly on the move. "It got to a point where we had just about settled in one place and taken the kids out of school when the company wanted us somewhere else," explained Mrs. Ternan. "This is when we decided to go into business for ourselves." But "going into business for ourselves" meant going into a completely unrelated profession for Orval. Previously he was in- volved in metal, steel and electronics, today he handles pine and mahogany. He uses these materials to make the box that sur- rounds the musical mechanism inside. "The pine and mahogany combination reates a nice contrast," said Orval. When -the Ternans began their business they sold gifts and a few music boxes. Soon Orval became fascinated with the music boxes and he began to visit warehouses that housed hundreds of the melody mechanisms. "He became more and more intrigued with music boxes and soon he began to fix them and then he began to make them," said Mrs. Ternan. Mr. Ternan said that one of the main reasons that he specializes in the boxes is that there is a high consumer demand for them, "and in business you go with what you can," laughed Orval. Mrs. Ternan said that Orval has become so innovative they they now import items for the boxes. Orval buys Polish figures and places them in natural poses with a selfmade backdrop almost like a stage set- ting. According to the Ternans, collectors from as far as Florida visited their previous store. in Southampton. They are hoping for the same wide interest in Blyth. "One lady from Switzerland came in and bought a swiss movement music box to take back to Switzerland," said Mrs. Ternan. "Well, we figured, now we've finally made it!" "Orval stands behind his work, if you collectors come back five years from now with one of his music boxes, he'll fix it," Mrs. Ternan said. With an attitude like that, it is little wonder why people come from far and wide to visit a man once known for industry and now known for quality and craftsmanship. Mr. and Mrs. Orval Ternan hold one of the many music boxes on display at The Lighthouse Gift Shop in Blyth. The above music box was constructed by Orval who im- ported special Polish figures to creat a nativity scene. A specially designed musical movement was added to cleverly combine the scene with the appropriate music.
