Junior Redmen compete in WOSSA, volleyball playoffs On November 22, the Junior Redman from Central Huron Secondary School (CHSS) competed in the WOSSA volleyball playoffs at Woodstock Huron Park. Central Huron had a difficult start, to say the least, losing their opening four games to London Oakridge 15-2; Regina Mundi 15-6; London Laurier 15-13; and Stratford Central 15-5. Then, the Redmen came alive, winning their next four games. Central Huron defeated Sarnia St. Clair 15-13; Parkside 15-11; East Elgin 15-12; and Sarnia Northern 15-6. Unfortunately, this spirited rally came a little late, and gave the Redmen a fifth place finish, just short of a semifinal berth. NOTICE dt4 OF A PUBLIC MEETING RESIDENTS OF.

McLachlan, Clerk Treasurer, Township of Tuckersmith. Sports Optimistic I'd like to start off with some good news this week since the past weekend brought nothing but bad news. The 1986 Clinton Optimist Bantam Tour- nament kicks off this weekend, so I con- tacted the chairman of the tournament, Greg Burns, for some information. This will be somewhere around the 18th year this tournament has run in Clinton. "It's the seventh year for the Optimists, and it ran for about 11 years before that with the recreation committee," Mr. Burns said. This is his fifth or sixth year as chairman. Participating in the tournament will be 40 teams, therefore a lot of organization was necessary to get it running. In fact, it has been in the planning stages since September. Mr. Burns noted that while only two peo- ple are involved in the actual organization of the games, himself and Steve Tyndall, the rest of the Optimists and their wives chip in to help out when it comes time to play the games. They will be taking care of • the score sheets, flooding the ice, cleaning the change rooms, taking admissions and anything else involved in the running Of it. With an estimation of 20 people to a team including players and coaches, Mr. Burns figured there would be approximately 800 people participating. The players are all Bantams, aged 14 and 15, and the teams will be from double "A" on down to "D" he said. With all of these players, I wondered whether they had to be billeted or fed. For- tunately for the Optimists, neither of ,these areas are their responsibility. "We give them (the players) a pin, every kid gets one of those; it's new this year," Mr. Burns explained. "The winners get medallions and trophies." While the winning teams get keeper trophies to take home, the local businesses that make donations get to keep the big ones. "We mostly rely on all the businesses in town to make donations; whatever they feel like giving. That's what makes or breaks us," he said. Since there are 50 games to be played in the tournament that runs from November 27 to November 30 and on December 6 and December 7, I won't try to fit the whole schedule in this column. I will, however, give the first evening's schedule, and anyone interested in cat- ching the future games can check out the schedule at the arena on that evening. Beginning at 6 p.m. Blyth will meet Wat- ford in a "D" division battle. Another "D" game will follow at 7:15 p.m. when Dor- chester meets Drayton. The rink will be turned over to two "A" teams at 8:30 p.m. with Strathroy playing Sarnia Township, and Clinton will host Parkhill at 9:45 p.m. in "C" division play to round out the evening. Here's a little tournament Post Script. The Optimists will be serving breakfast upstairs in the arena on both Saturdays and Sundays of the games. Mourning As anyone who reads this column with any regularity will know, I am currently in mourning for the Toronto Argonauts. Really, it was a bad weekend all the way across the board. I settled in on Saturday afternoon to watch the Vanier Cup and was pretty much resigned to the fact that Western was going to lose after they dropped so far back, when suddenly they poured it on. Yes, things were looking very good there until the final four seconds when UBC snat- ched away their victory. So that ruined half of my weekend. Of course, the finishing touch came about in the second quarter of the eastern semi- final game between Toronto and the Hamilton Tiger -Cats. I still can't believe it. There they are (the Argos), winning by a score of 15-3, giving them a 26 point lead overall for the total points series, and what do they do? They choke. Hamilton just couldn't seem to do anything wrong that afternoon, and con- versely, Toronto couldn't do anything right after the first quarter. Well, that's not exactly true. They did have the drive near the end of the game that put them up in the scoring again, but Hamilton just turned around and drove 88 yards for the score. How depressing. You could have felt the low spirits in my mother's house in Mississauga that Sun- day afternoon. My mom yelled at the radio throughout the game, while I waited until the game was over to tell the announcers to shut -up. It was like living a nightmare. Everywhere I turned after the disaster there was someone talking about the game. I tried to watch the Edmonton game and the announcers kept discussing the Hamilton victory, and of course, the radio was no better. I guess everyone also realizes that I picked British Columbia in the west, who were demolished by Edmonton. For- tunately, that game wasn't as important to me. For the Grey Cup on Sunday, I would have to pick Edmonton as the winners after seeing what they did to B.C., but then what Hamilton did to Toronto wasn't real- ly a pretty sight either. I'll be hoping for Hamilton, though, because it would be nice to see the cup returned to Ontario. As for the Argos, I guess there's only one more thing to say. There's always next year (or the year after that).
