People are voicing strong opposition to provincial money being spent for such a stadium that will not be used, or visited' by a large majority of Ontario residents. Too much money, they say, is being spent in Toronto when there are smaller communities throughout the province in need of money. It isn't fair that Ontario money should be spent on such a Toronto project and hospitals, health care and 'other worthy causes should be cut back. People don't want the Ontario government to pay for a Toronto domed stadium.

Is it any wonder that minor hockey players get involved in fights, brawls, and rough play when they see their heros, the NHL players, doing it as they were in the Canadiens-Nor- dique series and iri other games. Verne Buffey, who was an 31 -year referee in the NHL said, "Players should be thrown out of a game when they throw punches, instead of getting a minor penalty. When there; is a deliberate attempt to injure, by charging, boarding, high -sticking or cross checking players, should get major penalties." Vio- lence has become an accepted part of the game condoned by many fans and coaches as a way to release frustration and show aggressivenesk. Too bad such an exciting game of skill has to be marred by violence. Twilight Hensel) Spring FAIR ) Tuesday, June 5 MINI TRACTOR PULL oat Class #1 25-50 lbs.
