These are the same two teams which squared off against each other in a thrilling playoff series last spring. This is the second year for jun- ior hockey in Zurich, and if fans are given as many thrills this year as they were last year in the first attempt at junior com- petition, they should ger their money's worth. The, junior entry is being spon- sored by the Zurich Minor Ath- letic Association, of which Doug O'Brien was recently re- elected president. A special committee of the MAA, under the chairmanship of vice-pres- ident Herb Turkheim has been set up to supervise the operation of this team. Committee mem- bers are Bob Merrier, Bob John- ston, Stewart Deitz, Jerry Rader, Gary Gingerich, Isidore Laporte and the president, Doug O'Brien. Out of this committee a co- operative effort has been set up to look after various aspects of operating the team. Serving together as ream manager are Herb Turkheim and Bob Merner; coach, Doug O'Brien and Bob Johnston; trainer, Jerry Rader and Gary Gingerich; transport- ation, Stewart Deitz and Isidore Laporte. During the past two weeks the team has been working out at the Clinton arena, and this week practices were scheduled to take place at the local ice palace, in readiness for the season opener on Sunday. Gary Geoffrey is back for his second season in rhe nets for the locals, while Rick Jeffrey is also expected to work out shortly. The stand-by goalies will be Glenn Gascho, from last year's juvenile squad. On defence the locals will have two of last year's stalwarts in the line-up. They are Bruce Schoenhals, of Clinton, and Bill Taylor, of Hensall. Along with these two the club will have newcomers Greg Jervis, of Clinton, and Bob Cook of the Londesboro area, Also working on the blueline will be Gary , Kyle of Hensall, who was con- verted late last year from a goalie to defence. One of last year's high -flying forward units will be pack in the line-up intact. They are Stew Mustard, Ron Corriveau and Rick Schilbe. With the disbanding of the Goderich Junior B hockey team this week, Bill Stirling is planning to re- join the club, and another mem- ber of the Goderich club, Rick Fremlin of Clinton, is planning to work out with the locals. Other players returning from last year's squad are Kevin Mc Kinnon and John McKinley, while at least half a dozen others are also expected to be in the lineup. Among these are Shane McKinnon, Aubrey Bedard, Gred Armstrong and Syd Ramer, all from the minor ranks of Zur- ich teams. There is nothing that would make both the players and the management happier than to see a full house at the opening game , so come on all you hock- ey fans, let's see you at the arena on Sunday afternoon.
