Unfortunately for St. Columban they end- • ed up on the losing side in that second game, by a narrow. 2-1 margin.

Golf can keep the old young On Monday and TUesday June 22 and 23 Seaforth is hosting the 'Tri -County .Senior Games, There are'many events that seniors may participate in and the competitors will be coming from towns throughout the area. Included in the games is golf and there will be a goodly number of golfers, both Men and women, who will demonstrate that golf in deed is a sport that seniors may enjoy to the fullest. One of the fellows taking part is an 81 -year-old from St. Mary's. Golf has always been billed as the "game of lifetime" with youngsters taking up the game as young as four or five and continu- ing to play well into their 80s and 90s. With the, increased availability of power carts even those with leg and breathing dif- fitulties can stilLenjoy the great feeling of • hitting a good golf shot and adding up that "best score -ever," As the population ages there will be more and more seniors playing golf and already golf businesses are recognizing the potential market. Many golf courses offer discounts for seniors purchas- • ing memberships, or they might have a special seniors day with discounted rates and fun events. There are more senior events on the amateur circuit in southwestern Ontrdrio than ever before, and of course the. popular Senior's Tour allows golf fans to watch their favorites from the past like Arnie, ChiChi, Sam and the rest. Equipment manufacturers have managed to adapt to this increased seniors market. Lighter. clubs with more flexible shafts are often the answer for a golfer who is losing distance as the years add. up. Many senior Honda bike riders churn up a storm Even a thunderstorm has to run from the "Honda Hurricane". Not the street bike, but the red storm cooked up by Hully Gully Wil- da riders Kevin Moore, Alan Stickert and Dave Andrews, Expert rider Kevin Moore made a clean sweep of the 125 cc class and dusted all other competitors in the 250 class at the May 31 motocross races held at Rutty Gully. Akn Strickert also placed first in both motos in the Senior 125 ClasS. Local rider Dave Andrews, on yet another Honda finish- ed first in the first mato and second in the se- cond mote, good enough for first overall in the Jr. 1258 class. Watch out for the real stern to return June 13 when motocross returns to }fully Gully.

ARNOLD STINNISSEN 117 dederieft St. East, Seaforth Tel. 527,0410 ON THE GREENS by Carolanne Doig golfers are retiring their long irons such as the 2,3 and 4, and opting for 5 and 7 woods that will get the ball up and out there with less -effort, Jumbo grips are often just what the doctor ordered for those golfers suffer- ing from arthritic hands. The extra thickness of the grip allows the senior to grip firmly without a lot of stress on the joints. Even the use of metal woods has helped a lot of seniors because combined, with -a surlyn covered ball the extra distance -can help lower the score and elevate the ego. Seniors who would like to enjoy golf well into their retirement years should keep a few pointers in mind. Try to keep in relative- ly good shape. Walk if you can. Walking keeps the weight down and the circulation going. Only ride if the course is very hilly or the weather is very hot and humid. If you're with a friend with a power cart ride a few holes and walk a few. If pulling a cart is'too strenuous but you still would like some exer- cise there are power carts available that are battery operated and will go along beside you with very little effort, you only have to steer. Wear good shoes and warm up your muscles before heading out onto the course. Practise your short game and don't worry about otitdriving those young bucks, ... down the middle, a pitch and a putt and you've got SCOREBOARD EDITOR'S NOTE - Unfortunately it is im- posidble for the staff at The Huron Ex- positor to get to every baseball, soccer, football and or ball hockey game that takes place in the community.
