Same Old Story
Everybody seems to think it's their"
bounden duty to produce at least one
item for this column every week, Us-
ually, ,one or two pupils fall -back on
the standby of falling down the
Stairs. Really, it gets monotonous,
Week after week, repilpting that so-
and-so took a. flyer, at the stairs and
missed. Henceforth, one and . all.
cease - and desist from falling down
the -stairs, and I shah •.do the same
regarding reporting it.

Last Friday morning -talent morn -
leg -we had Donna Fowler _ and Lor-
raine Dale singing "The 'Mission
Bells." Also paraded on the stage
were Donna Watson and Jim Chap-
man, who made their reports on the
outcome of •the basketball games in
Goderich Friday afternoon. The girls
won their game without a great deal
of trouble, aside from a few imprompe
to wrestling demonstrations, by Maiz-
e, by a score of 31-21. Donna picked
up most of Seaforth's points, ,as us-
ual, coming through with 21 this

was her nearest rival, with eight. Fol-

The boys' game was a different ma
er. Seaforth lost 39-17, and it w
he first loss of the season for th
lo
• boys. The Goderich team,, whic
ooked'and played like a good senio
cam, was used to the small floor o
which 'the game was played, and i
will be interesting to ,see how the
tack up on a court of more conve
Tonal size. - The game was of th
lose -checking type, that is, •the pla
rs tried to check closely but usual
ucceeded in having a foul called o
hem. Three players were warne
or four fouls, but thereafter behave

Seaforth Midgets have played a few
local,games at the rink and did them-
selves proud in their showing. Sat-
urday they defeated Wingham, but
lost to Goderich; 1947 champions. Al-
though they lost 8-4, it did not indi-
cate the play. The only drawback to
these games from coach; manager.
and players themselves was fan at-
tendance ... it was disgraceful .
yes, a shame. We wonder if the fans
in Seaforth are just indifferent to the
younger set in their attempt to help
sport in YOUR TOWN.
We heard rightly that fans and or-
ganizations wanted to see a midget
team started here. May we ask why?
The answerprobably would be: "We
want to give the younger boys a
chance to play hockey." That, Friend
Fan, is fine as far as it goes. But,
Mr. Fan . . . that is not going far
enough. Those boys need more en-
couragement_ t11 nnartr nn 7 ..
Y need it. We ask: "Whya midget
team if you don't support that team.
�' Why Y su APort one team and not an-
other?" This column believes the
tyoungsters need more encouragement
than the older experienced team .
t- DON'T YOU?
as A team, coach and manager surely
e can't be expected to support them -
h selves. Fan support is the best in -
r ducement to all, and up to the pres-
n ent time Seaforth Hockey Fan has
failed to do just that. We might add
that if support is not forthcoming
_ immediately, the Midgets will fold -
n then listen to the big `Why'. The an-
e swer is
y_ quite plain. Absence of Mr.
ly Fan support. We understood Seaforth
was a sporting town . . . how about
it?
d
d Anincident was brought to my at -
h tention when one fan who was un-
; able to attend a midget game, paid
g his entry fee anyway. We; don't ask
d all fans to do this, but to,;,come•down
t and see the games .• . back up the
youngsters and you will be glad you
n' did for:
