Optimist Tykes tie Wallace 1®1 The Wingham Optimist Tykes played an exciting game against Wallace (Kurtzville) last Thursday evening, emerging with a 1-1 tie. Ryan Deyell and Matthew Elmslie shared netminding duties for Wingham. This was Deyell's first gaane in the net for some time, but he reminded the fans he can be as effective at stoppingthe puck as he is in scoring goals. Elmslie also stopped many hard shots and cleared the puck effectively. During the first period, Ivan Skinn played an ex- ceptionally strong defensive game. He was called upon time and again to clear the puck and force Wallace back into its own end. Jonathan Balzer and Brendan Magee charged intothe Wallace line and carried the puck for Wingham. The first period ended with a 0-0 score, following furious play in which there were only two whistles. Andrew Gibson and Brad Hunter got a two-man breakaway in the second period, but the puck got lost under a tangle of players on Wallace's doorstep. Gibson made several key playsin the game, when he stretched to the limit to stop Wallace drives. Clemment Wai . played a good game in which he fought the puck from Wallace players and carried it up the line. Gavin Hodgins dug the puck out of corners andpassed it out in front. Matthew Hunter, and Marc Poulin kept Wingham fans on the edges of their seats as they skated and passed the puck around the Wallace net, but after two hotly -contested periods the score remained 0-0. Robbie Zehr of Wallace scored the first goal in the game at 3:02 of the third period. Jonathan Lane, assisted by Barton Cameron, responded for Wingham by whistling a shotpast the Wallace goaltender at 4:49. Mike Tiffin played a strong game in which he forced Wallace players off the puck and skated into the Wallace zone. Andrew Forrest and Todd Harrison cleared the puck and passed it up the ice. –The boys .played one of their best games and the fans agreed it was one of the most exciting games of the season. Seventy-five years ago most Canadians lived on farms. Many others depended on farming , for their livelihood and our nation's economy revolved around the prosperity of agriculture. 1� F�. wling Scores MONDAY NIGHT MEN'S The third and final flight got underway Monday night with the Boat People taking seven points off the Di,::-ers.

'The Hobbit' fantasy coming to Blyth stage The visually stunning Theatre Sans Fils stage adaptation of "The Hobbit" by J. R. R. Tolkien will fill the stage at the Blyth, Memorial Hall with color and fantasy Thursday, March 3 Theatre. -gins Fils means theatre without strings and the famous. Montreal puppet company for adults uses the black light principal and huge puppets manipulated by black -garbed handlers to create visual effects one thinks of more as part of television and movies than the stage. The effects allow Tolkien's fantasy world to come to life. Bilbo the hobbit was created by Tolkien in 1937 and in the production takes the audience along on a fabulous adventure in which he becomes a hero, very much inspite of himself. Like any self-respecting hobbit, he would prefer to stay at .home in his _ comfortable hobbit hole, daydreaming and smoking his pipe. Never in his life did he dream he would get involved in such an amazing adventure. The production features 48 puppets, ranging in size from four to 12 feet high and in style from the most realistic of characters to the most imaginary of beings who haunt the land o`f the hobbits. The Press of Atlantic City said: "To describe the dramatic spectacle of "The Hobbit" in words is nearly impossible. Only someone who has seen the intensity of the puppets' battle and the' glowing ferociousness of the monsters can truly ap- preciate the effect it has on the audience — especially an audience attuned to the screen effects of Star Wars." Tickets for "The Hobbit", part of the Blyth Centre for the, Arts theatre series, are available now from the box office by mail or telephone (Tuesdays and Wednesdays) at 523-9300 or from the Blyth Saga at 523-4331.

Brownie corner For the past few meetings, the Brownies have worked on the Space Badge. They made space creature pup- "..pe£s fron vivid 'velvet and rockets with plastic rocket boosters. They heard a Rip Van Winkle space story and learned what life is like in space in another story. The last meeting had the theme "A Brownie Meeting on the Moon". The Brownies wore their uniforms back- ward and had space names for their Sixes. Other parts of the program were changed to carry out the theme. The Brownies drew a model of "home" on another planet. The Brownies learned a space song and sang it just before E.T. arrived to present the girls with their Space Badges. We want to thank E.T. for com- ing; the Brownies certainly enjoyed it. Wendy McBride has received her Collector's Badge and Shannon Robinson her Musician's Badge. People do read small ads You are!
