In 'accordance with the Canad- ian Amateur Hockey Association's Minor Hockey Week in Canada, we suggest you, as parents ar friends of the boys in our minor hockey system attend the games we have set aside for the obser- vance of this week in Zurich. The Bantam Midget double- header with Clinton, on Friday, January 24, starting at 7.00 p.m. The Peewee Little NHL games at 10.00 a.m., Saturday. Over 150,000 boys in all parts - of Canada will be taking part in Minor Hockey Week in Canada. Back To Old Times? The referees, the scapegoats of almost every hockey game, cer- First Zurich. Curling Rinks Now Selected Last Wednesday night some 50 local sports enthusiasts gathered at the local arena to investigate a new sport—Curling. Although a few fellows slipped on the ice on the first attempt, it wasn't long until they picked up the idea of the game. Eight different rinks were set up as follows: skip, Carl Decker, Lee Willert, Leroy Thiel and Bert McBride; skip, John. Robinson, Jake Haberer, Ed. Datar, William Baeckler; skip, Jack Turkheim, Delbert Geiger, Leroy O'Brien, William Seibert; skip, Ed. Gascho, Tom Meyers, Len Surerus, Ed. Deuhert; skip, Ernie Laidlaw, Donald Hesse, Hugh Clausius, Reg. Black; skip, Ferd Haberer, Walter. Eckel, Glen Thiel, Len Pang; ' skip, Robert McKinley, Hubert Schilbe, Kenneth Parke, Jim Parkins; skip, Milfred Schilbe, Jack Bannister, Albert Hess, Jer- ome Deitrich; skip, Clare Geiger, Arnold Merner, Jr., Don O'Brien, Douglas Theander. As more members join the club, more rinks will be set up. As yet definite nights have not been ar- ranged for curling, but it will be set up on a scheduled basis very shortly. Midget Scoring Individual scoring for Midge hockey team: Bob Johnson Brian Jeffrey Gerald Overholt Wayne Willert Joseph Corriveau, "Woody" Weida Bill Wagner Earl Wagner Bernie Denomy Mike Regier Paul Bedard Wayne Clausius Butch Sweeney 0 0 "Woody" Weida continues to be the bad man of the team, having served 10 minutes in penalties. t tainly received their share of verbal arguments from both players and spectators at the game with Pt. Edward, on Friday night. We believe the fault of the whole fiasco; lay in the hands of the referees themselves for let- ting etting the game get out of hand in the first place. It seems the re- ferees were even mare rattled than the players themselves for they misinterpreted rules that most referees have at their fing- er-tips. However it certainly was good from the player's point of view, to hear the cheering of the fans throughout the last period. It reminded us of the old Dashwood - Zurich games during the era of the packed arena. Keep coming fans, we certainly ' enjoy your suport. Revenge Tonight? Don't, forget the big game with the Exeter Mohawks, at 8.30 p.m. tonight. This fine Exeter club, product of the:; proud town of Ex- eter, will be out to keep their winning streak alive against the revamped Zurich club, who, with a little bit of luck, could ,have re- versed their previous 8-5 loss to Exeter. Even though Exeter has as yet not been defeated in leag- ue competition, they were sound- ly trounced by an industrial team from Kitchener on Saturday night. In addition the Flyers who .are riding on the crest of a one game winning streak will be attempting to improve their hold on sixth place, by defeating the Mohawks. Curling Capers Hats off to Ed. Gascho, John Robinson and Karl Decker, and all the others who helped in get- ting curling started in the local. arena. With over 40 signed mem- bers already, it certainly looks as if the grand old sport of curling will soon be a permanent fixture in Zurich. If you are interested in curling, see either Ed. Gascho or Karl Decker. We think the current idea of having curling on one side of the rink and skating on the other side is an excellent idea. In this way the kids, for whom the arena was built in the first place, will stili be able to receive their usual fun and recreation while the curlers will definitely help in keeping the arena from going further into the red.

Many observers feel the Canadiens could be sent to contest the World Championships and still be lead- ing the league when they return.
