Zurich Flyers Finally Eliminate Brussels
Barring another protest, the
Zurich Flyers on Sunday after-
noon eliminated the Brussels
BP's from further competition
in the WOAA Minor C series in
intermediate hockey ranks.
They defeated them 10-2 in the
third series the two teams have
played in recent weeks. Each
time Zurich had eliminated
them previously the Brussels
team had protested the use of
certain players, and the league
ordered a replay.
Sunday afternoon's game was
played in Zurich, and the locals
were without the services of
Earl Wagner, Jim Pfaff, Barry
Bloch, and Bill Chipchase who
have been ruled ineligible by
the WOAA. The first three
have played all their hockey
for Zurich during the past years,
but still were declared illegal
because they no longer live in
Zurich.
Replacing the four players
were two members of the Zur-
ich Juveniles, Ron Desjardine
and Fred Armstrong, along with
George Haggitt, who carne out
of retirement to help the locals
along.
The two teams trade first per-
iod goals, but then in the sec-
ond stanza the Flyers ran rough-
shod over their opponents, out -

Easter Seal Fund
Reath 40 Percent
Easter Seal campaign donat-
ions for this area to date have
reached $400 about 401 of the
local -objective of $1050, it was
announced Tuesday by camp-
aign chairman, Donald L. O'Brier
of the Zurich Lions Club.
Mr. O'Brien said that about
1400 mailings have been sent
to area homes and industry.
These mailings, he noted, in-
cluded a pre -paid pink return
envelope for the convenience
of the donor.
"However, " noted Mr. O'Brien,
"we also suggest that persons
contributing to the campaign
can assist even further if they
supply their own stamps for
these envelopes. Such a gest-
ure means only pennies to the
individual, but many, many
thousands of additional dollars
to the Society. These dollars
directly benefit the crippled
child, "
The campaign, run in con-
junction with the Ontario Society
for Crippled Children, continues
until Easter Sunday, March 29.
The province -wide campaign
objective is $1, 600, 000.

game, with four of them going
to Zurich and two to Brussels.
If no further protests are re-
ceived from Brussels or the WOAA
the Zurich crew will advance
into the finals for the Intermed-
iate C title. In all probability
they will meet Atwood in the
next round, although this was
not definite at press time.
Syrup Time
"Sap's running!" is a famil-
iar shout each spring in maple
bush country.
It's an exciting time of year
not only for maple syrup and
maple sugar producers, but for
visitors, both city and farm
folk, who come to the maple
syrup festivals held in many
of Ontario's communities.
The picturesque, hand cfafted
buckets and spouts of 100 years
ago have almost all given way
to more modern techniques -
miles of plastic tubing, criss-
crossing the snow-coverd bush,
transporting the sap from the
tree to storage tanks or evapor-
ators.
Maple syrup festivals are be-
coming more and mare popular.
Each year thousands of visitors
crowd the village streets to en-
joy the product of a great trad-
ition. Here they can purchase
maple syrup and join in the
happy carnival feeling of the
festival,
The smell of maple taffy, the
hot sap, the laughter, the sing-
ing, and the invigorating air
combine to give a special
holiday feeling to this end- of -
winter, coming -of -spring cele-
bration.
The length of the season is
unpredictable from one year
to another. But, the minute the
buds begin to swell, sap gather-
ing ceases.
Festivals have been planned
for March and April in various
Ontario communities. Locations
and dates of interest are:
April 4, Elmira Maple Syrup
Festival, Elmira, north of
Waterloo;
April 11, Elmvale Maple
Syrup Festival, Elmvale, north
of Barrie;
April 11, Belmore Maple Pan-
cake Day, Belmore, northeast
of Wingham.
