Madill physical edu- cation teacher, Carolyn Schofield left for Sweden Monday on a 15 day intensive study period. She was selected to go in recognition of endeavors and contributions to improving physical fitness and sports programs locally. Together with other leading Canadian and U.W. fitness ex- perts, Miss Schofield is going to Sweden under the Institute of Comparative Physical Edu- cation, Concordia University, Montreal. It is part of an annual study -abroad program. Every aspect of fitness in the Swedish society will be analyzed, including special programs in schools, sports clubs, communi- ties, research centres, industry, offices and resorts. It is being hailed as the most detailed study ever undertaken of Sweden's ad- vanced system of fitness. The institute's aim by this pro- gram and others is to promote an exchange of information which through physical education, fit- ness and health science can' lead to an improved quality of life in Canada and the U.S, and on a world wide scale.

Don McKee, coach of the Hes- peler Junior B hockey team and a physical education consultant with the Waterloo board of education, said advances in equipment design •particularly are allowing players to perform better. He mentioned a new type of skate blade which seldom needs sharpening, development of a "plastic ice" which will give more speed and 'better control and exhaustively tested sticks and other equipment. He also singled out coaching as an area which has improved markedly, "Coaching today is 25 times better than 25 years ago," Mr. McKee told the group. He added that one million dol- lars will be spent in Ontario this year in training coaches. However, Mr. McKee said, ,he is deeply concerned with the amount of pressure placed on players at the minor hockey level. Fifty per cent of the players drop out of hockey at the age of 13 or 14 because they no longer enjoy playing the game, he noted. The pressure to win was also blamed for much of the searing ., and dirty play that mars hockey today. Players are not taught to respect game officials and mem- bers of opposing teams, and this is one thing that must change, ' h New tennis club officers selected Jim Inwood is the 1977 presi-, dent of the Wingham Tennis Club. Other officers are Mary Ann Cruickshank, first vice-presi- dent; ice-president; John Leitch, second vice- " president, Blossom Phillips, secretary and' Adrian de Bruyn; treasurer. Club members will have prior- ity on courts one and two at all times, the club reports. The pub- lic can play on court three. The public can also use courts one and two if no members are present. Club members can reserve court one for a onehour period on weekends and holidays. An agreement with F. E. Madill Secondary School gilves physical education classes use •of all three courts during the school day. The courts should be avail- able ,at other times of the day. Senior memberships are avail- able at $10; junior memberships, . (under 16) at $5; couples at $15 and a family at $25 maximum. A Surcharge payable to the Wing - ham Recreation Board'will apply ttrfaembers who are not- rate payers in Wingham. •,A strong club would mean well maintained courts, tennis lessons if desired, membership with the Ontario Lawn Tennis .Associa- tion, social events and club tour- naments and inter -club tourna- ments 'if desired. , Painting of the lines is being carried out on a volunteer basis and the fence construction was due to begin on Tuesday. It is hoped that everything but light- ing will be ready by Monday, May 30. Lighting is planned for later this season. New directorsappointed by golf and curlingclub The Wingham Golf and Curling Club appointed its new board of directors at a general meeting May 18, as club members ratified • the recommendations of a nom- inating, committee. 'Phe directors are: Jack Good- all, William Hanula, Dick LeVan, John Mann, Frank Madill and , Mac Ritchie. They will fill the various executive positions from among themselves at their first directors meeting. Dr. Alan. Williams, chairman of the nominating committee, said two of these directors will serve for one year, twill for two years and two for three years. This will allow two new directors to be placed on the board each year. He said the directors them- selves will decide who will serve the one, two and three year terms. The election of new directors follows the decision earlier this year to merge the golf and curling clubs. A new curling rink will 'be built adjoining the golf club during the summer. PLAY IT AGAIN—Garth Walden and John McDowell entertained the troops following the Belgrave minor hockey dinner last Friday night. Mr. McKee said, pointing out the government has warned it will "clean up" hockey if the game cannot police itself. An experimental program being tried in Windsor has barred parents from the rink and re- moved the scoreboards in an attempt to improve the game, he said. Parents were urged to be kind and encouraging; to remember that "love is more important than winning"..Mr. McKee illustrated this point with IALAC sings, standing for: "I am lovable and capable". Everyone wears these signs, he told the group, and a little praise and encouragement can make them grow large while constant- 'criticism makes them very small. He challenged the parents, players and coaches to try to keep each others IALAC signs big: Recent; slow -pitch league games Scores in the games played May 16 were : a Burke -McLeod 21, Police, 15; Stanley Door 13,.
