GOALIE HOT FOR FERGUS Steady goaltending was the big reason the Green Machine was able to stay in the game with Wingham. Wingham out -hustled and outplayed Fergus for the majority of the game, and with all the shots they had on the Green Machine net they should have been way out • in front, but the "little machine" playing be- tween the pipes for Fergus came up with some unbelievable saves. GAME PLAY Wingham opened the scoring at 10:35 of the first period on • a power play goal by Randy Alton with Paul Inglis getting the assist. With 50 seconds remaining in the period Fergus tied the game but the Ironmen came back 26 seconds later to go ahead 2-1 at the end of the first period. The second period started with Wingham letting up on the hitting and the Green Machine re- sponded to this by scoring three goals in two minutes. The Iron - men once again collected them- selves and Jim McGee's two quick goals put Wingham back into the game. Alex Fitzgerald scored another to give the Iron - men the lead of 5-4, which is how the second period ended. power play scored only once. Coach George said he is really pleased with theway his players worked this game and he feels that once they have the power play straightened out the team will look really good. IRONMEN NOTES: There were three Ironmen out for this game: Tom Graham, who was last year's top rookie, got a leg injury in an exhibition game and has had surgery on it,. He will be out of action for some time. Jay Mc - Laurin, a hard working centre - man for the Ironmen, is out with torn ligaments. Davie Keiffer is unfortunately out on a three game suspension. NOTE: Next week is Senior Citizens' Week when all Senior Citizens will be admitted free to the Ironmen game. MEET THE IRONMEN This week's player is Ron Riley, who is sponsored by "The ' Home Place".

CANADIAN FOOTBALL LEAGUE PLAYERS' ASSOCIATION GAE (CICOPYRIGHT•I977 SUN SYNDICATE THE RUNNING BACK by GEORGE REED SASKATCHEWAN ROUGHRIDERS The primary purpose of a Back is running with the football. The first thing, you have to be able to do if you want to gain yards rushing in football is RUN. Although many people believe that a back is born gifted, this is a false concept. The player can have talent, but unless there is a lot of hard work, desire, sacrifice, and learning the basics, that talent will never be gotten out of the player. STANCE The stance is the starting point from which the running back begins and is very important. 9 POINT STANCE The most common of the stances for running backs is the 3 point stance. Qne should assume a position of having both feet about shoulder width apart. The toe of the right foot should be midway of left foot. The right hand is then placed on the ground with very little pressure ap- plied on the hand. Ad- justments should be made from the above procedures to assume the position correct for you. The most important thing to remember is to assume a position which is comfortable and one which allows the back to move in any direction without compensating. The distance one generally takes is 4 to 4/ yards from the line of scrimmage. 2 POINT STANCE The 2 point stance generally refers to tail back in "I" formation. Position of the feet is the same as for the 3 point stance, with adjustments made after assuming starting position. Hands are placed on knees. Again, assume a com- fortable position which allows you to move without wasting a step. Backs in the "I" position generally are 5-7 yards deep from the line of scrimmage.

Fitness skating program drawing interested adults An adult fitness skating pro- gram introduced by the Wingham recreation department this tall Is receiving a good response, Direc- tor Rennie Alexander reports. Twelve persons are currently en- rolled in the program, which runs until Christmas, and he has been pleased with the steady growth in interest. People come for the exercise and therapy as well as the socializing, he said. Of the 12, one is a person who has had leg prob- lems, while another has had heart trouble. One woman hadn't skated for 50 years, he added, and the program is giving her a chance to brush up. Instruction is available to any- one wanting it, but most "come for the good time", according to Mr. Alexander, He estimated the average age of the skaters at around 50 and said he thinks they appreciate the "nice, quiet, serene type atmosphere, with no kids running around", The skating hours are 9:30 to 10:30 a:m. Monday through Fri- day and originally he had ex- pected to get ,some of.the young mothers out for the program, but he noted that more of them are involved in the Moms and Tots program that runs twice a week. Mr. Alexander said he decided to initiate the adult skating hour when he noticed there was a lot of ice time available during the day and thought of people sitting at home or on shift work who might like to use it. Another adult skating program starts after Christmas. The fee is $10 for the 10 week program. .ODfT.;.NOU,.. FRI., NOV. 11 to MON. NOV. 14 FRI—SAT. 7:00 & 9:00 P.M. SUN—MON- AT 8:00 P.M. ONLY!
