McDANIEL PHILLIPS, a familiar Wingham
radio and teleivison personality, is leaving for
Bonair in the Dutch Antilles, March 25. Mr.
Phillips will be a broadcaster for Trans World
Radio, the largest Christian broadcasting
organization in the world, and his wife Blos-
som will be teaching school.
McDaniel Phillips' family
is leaving for mission field
By Margaret Arbuckle
Wingham will lose one of its best-known radio and
television personalities, plus a teacher from the
public school, when McDaniel and Blossom Phillips
leave for Bonair in the Dutch Antilles, South
America, March 25.
Mr. Phillips will be working as an announcer for
Trans World Radio, the largest Christian broad-
casting organization in the world, and Mrs. Phillips
will teaching school there.
Born and reared at Kingston, Mr. Phillips said he
has fond memories of his early years. He was raised
in a Christian home, but was cushioned during his
childhood, so when he turned 18 and left the family
home for Toronto,, of hi firtntro.to, + e
secular world.
He attended a community college in Toronto and
became interested in sound. But he could not afford
to go on in school so he got a job at the Toronto
airport and also worked in a factory that
manufactured cans.
However he still could not get radio off his mind.
Finally.a friend of his at the CBC made an audition
tape for Mr: Phillips which he sent to a radio station
in Bermuda. Much to his surprise, the station hired
him and he spent six lonely, "disastrous" months in
Bermuda before returning to Canada and college to
study radio and music.
One blustery day in January of 1976, Mr. Phillips
journeyed to Wingham for an interview at CKNX.
He had no experience in television and wasa little
frightened at the prospect, but said he was eager to
take a chance.
The minute he entered the station here, Mr.
Phillips said he felt totally comfortable and knew
this is where he wanted to make his home. He was
hired that day and has been here ever since.
Mr. Phillips met his wife in 1972 and they married
in 1976. After coming to Wingham, they started
attending the Wingham Bible Chapel and gradually
became more and more involved with the church.
Things progressed until one evening in the fall of
1977 when, Mr. Phillips said, he offered his life to the
Lord.
During his years at CKNX Mr. Phillips has been a
radio and television broadcaster. He even has spent
some time ,in sales. But he always felt a certain
restlessness thji�t was not quieted even when he
made the charges.
Over two years ago, Mr. Phillips was discussing
his problem of restlessness with a minister friend
from Kitchener. His friend suggested Christian
broadcasting and put him in touch with the
Canadian head office of Trans World Radio at
London.
The man who interviewed him told Mr. Phillips to
go home and pray. When he got home he tried to put
the idea out of his head, he actually fought it. But
finally he realized it was a battle he just was not
going to win: he had a calling to share the gospel of
Jesus Christ. ,
Last spring, he and his wife went to New Jersey to
be interviewed by the Trans World Radio brass and
they were accepted as suitable candidates for the
on -air mission.
His new job will- entail news, a morning program
and he will have to devise his own ministerial
program. All that and traveling to outlying islands
will make Mr. Phillips a busy man. Mrs. Phillips
will teach at an English supplementary school.
Mrs. Phillips is totally behind her husband in this
new undertaking; without her, he said, he would not
be going. Their two young daughters, Sarah and
Rachel, also are looking forward to the' move.
Even though they are sad to leave their many
friends in Wingham and will miss them, Mr. and
Mrs. Phillips are convinced they are making the
right decision in leaving for a new life.

-411V71::..03. •
The. Wingham Optimist
Tykes, participated in the
Palmerston Tyke Tour-
nament last weekend and
came away with the con-
solation championship.;
In their first game last
Friday night, the Wingham
lads lost to the host club,
Palmerston, 3-2. The
Wingham boys simply could
not break through the close -
checking - defense of
Palmerston. Scorers for
Wingham were Shane Pegg,
unassisted, and Ryan
Leibold, assisted by Mat-
thew Hunter.
In their second game off the
day, Wingham met the
Howick Falcons. The quick
rushes and strong play of the
Howick team forced the
Wingham lads to play catch-
up until Hunter scored twice
in the second period. On one
goal, he was assisted by
Jeremy Brown and on the
second, assists went to
Brown and Leibold.
In the third frame the
Wingham boys began to
connect on some of their
shots. Barton Cameron
snapped the puck into
P;owick's net two minutes
into the period, assisted by
Jonathon Lane. Lane came
back. to score half -way
through the period, assisted
by Cameron and Pegg.
With only one minute left
in the period, Lane scored
his second marker, this time
assisted by Hunter. Until
that goal, which put
Wingham ahead by one, it
was anybody's game.
Finally, with only 27 seconds
left in the game, Lane drove
up through the Howick
players to earn his hat trick,
unassisted, to clinch the
game. Scorers for Howick
were Michael Hargrave,
Trevor Smith, David Heil
and Jeff Scheel. The final
score read 6-4 for Wingham.
In Sunday's first match -
up, the local boys defeated
the Port )Agin Home Hard-
ware Tykes 6-1.
There was 'po score at the
end of the first period,
however, at the 28 -second
mark of the second period,
Cameron scored for
Wingham, assisted by Pegg
and Lane. Pegg drove in
Wingham's second marker
at 4:23, assisted by Lane.
Kenneth Hogg worked his
way through heavy traffic to
score, unassisted, at 12:24.
Port Elgin's only goal was
scored in the last minute of
the second period.
There was no score in the
third until Lane pounded the
puck home at 13:37. He was
assisted by Cameron and
Pegg. Within 30 , .seconds,
Cameron , scored again for
Wingham, this time assisted
by Todd Harrison.
Wingham's final and sixth
goal of the match, was
blasted in by Hunter,
assisted by Hogg.
Wingham met Arthur in
the consolation cham-
pionship round later Sunday.
During the first period,
even though Wingham
controlled the play, Arthur
scored with 29 seconds left in
the period. Arthur went
ahead by two at the 2:41
mark of the second and it
wasn't until 11:20 that Lane
dumped one' in to put
Wingham on the scoreboard,
assisted by Pegg.
As the game progressed,
the tension mounted as the
Wingham lads fought to get
the tying goal. With only
three minutes left in the
game, Pegg drove the puck
into Arthur's net, assisted by
Lane and Cameron. Pegg's
goal evened„up the score and
at the end of regulation play,
it was Arthur, 2, and
Wingham, 2.
A shoot-out was used to
break the tie and Wingham's
shooters were Lane, Hunter
and Hogg with Matthew
Elmslie was in goal. He held
off all three Arthur shooters
and Lane scored for
Wingham to give the boys
the game by a count of 3-2.
Each of the Wingham lads
contributed to the win.
Steady net -minding by
Elmslie and Jason Moody
backed up the close -checking
defensemen Jonathon Balzer
and Murray MacLeod.
Forwards Eric Deyell,
Andrew Forrest and Brett
Sangster each played an all-
out offence.
At the end of the game,
Hunter accepted the
championship trophy and
banner on behalf of the team.
Lane received the most
valuable player medallion
for Wingham and each
player on the team received
a consolation cap to wear.
The Wingham parents and
team members appreciate
the hospitality extended to
them by Palmerston.
