STUDYING THE GAME—As well ae playing for the Teacher's team In the men's
recreational softball league In Seaforth, Doug Bach worked as one of the organizers of the
league's big tournament. Here, he's shown watching a tournament game between the time
he was busy recording scores and announcing results. (Hundertmark photo)
"Fair" weather closes
course for weekend
On gQc4c@no
by Ccied@nn W® G tg
Although the golf course
was closed due to "Fair"
weather, golf fans, old and
new could practise their
putting or chipping while
visiting the golf display at
the fair.
Over 20 free rounds of golf
were given away to putters
who managed to hole two out
of four putts. The free
putting proved to be much
easier than , the chipping
contest which gave up only
one winner. Between an-
swering questions and re-
trieving errant balls, Barb
Watt and I had our work cut
out for us. Most people
seemed to enjoy lookingat
pictures of the old Seafrth
courses, along with golf
equipment from an earlier
time. The latest in clothing
and equipment was also on
display, and the three dimen-
sional scale model of the golf
course caught many eyes.
I really enjoyed the plan-
ning of the fair display and
while on the subject, if
anyone out there reading this
column has any information
or pictures- about the old
Seaforth courses, or those
who played them, please let
me know, as I would love to
complete my history of golf
in Seaforth.
The Men's match play has
been narrowed down this
week to two finalists, Kevin
Bennett and Rod IZoig. Rod

Editor's note:
A large nJtmber of dedicated volunteer;
make Seaforth a keen and successful
town. This is the first iinappeeseries of stories
about BY SUSSAN HUpeople.
Doug Bach admits that he's probably a
bit of a sports nut. But, the amount of time
he spends with the Men's Recreational
Softball League, Seaforth's Junior D
hockey Centenaires, and in front of the
television at home watching spotts leads
one to the conclusion that that's an
understatement.
"1 used to live and die TV sports. If my
team didn't win, I'd -still be upset, the next
day. 1 still get rilgdat games but I'm not as
bad as I used to be, he says.
Born and raised in Brunner, a village
near Milverton, Doug startedparticipating
in baseball and played ,on a Milverton
fastball team for five years. Although he
never played organized hockey, he devel-
oped a crush on the game as a spectator in
high school which has matured into a
passion with his involvement with the
Centenaires.
Everything I've learned is from watch-
ing - or studying - the game..1 get caught
up in it and 1 live and die Centenaires
during the winter. I always seem to be
thinking about it," he says.
As manager of the Centenaires for the
second season, Doug says he spends six
nights a week doing some kind of
Centenaire business during the hockey
season. His duties include sending out
ihvitations to players (54 this year) for
training camp, booking ice time, scouting
as many midget games in the area as
possible, acting as a go-between for the
coaches and the executive, attending
league and Ontario Hockey Association
(ORA) meetings, and dealing with any'
problems the players -may have.
"He's so interested it's almostlike
another full-time job for him. His best
characteristic is his persistence. He jyst.'
keeps going and going and going," says
Bryan Peter, town recreation director and
official OHA representative for the Centen-
aires.
PLAY-OFFS
Working the season from early Septem-
ber to mid-February (if they make the
play-offs) with the Centenaires began for
Doug in the fall of 1976, four years after he
moved to Seaforth, a new veterinary
graduate of the University of Guelph.
He had just left his veterinary practice
for a job at Topnotch and had some free
time.which he filled playing baseball. He
nowtiteaches at Centralia College. When he
was approached by the team president of
the Centenaires who asked him if he'd like
to sit on the executive, he thought aboutit
for a week And accepted.
"1 was ripe," he says. "In a small
community, a lot of people should be and
want to be involved somehow. 1 make my,
contribution through sports.''
pi'sgoal
As well as being manager, Doug has
spent three years as chairman • of the
booster club, one year as president of the
executive and, one year doing public
relations for the Ceftenaires.
s goal is for the Gentenaires tz win an
O championship within the next two
OHA GOAL
' "We play gpod calibre hockey that is
interesting to the fans but it's been a while
since an MIA championship has been won
by Seaforth. If we did, I'd hang up my
briefcase."
Though he loves to win, Doug admits
that winning isn't everything. He -enjoys
seeing the players improve as the minor
system gets better and watching the
players begin to work as a team.
"Doug sure knows his business," says
Dave Erb, last year's captain of the
Centenaires and a player with the team for
three years. "He tries to get along with all
the guys and, is there to listen to any
problems."
From his involvement in sports. Dug
says he's !net a lot of people who have
become friends. For him, fun and team
spirit go together with the thrill of
competition.
There . 'is an excellent group of
hard-working individuals contributing to
the Centenaires; -If not for them, the team
would probably .be belly -up,"
His yearround. involvement in Seaforth
sports - &s a player and secretary for the
Men's Recreational Softball League and
does reports for the Paper.- doesn't seem to
bother his family too toiletry: ' -
"It's better than going out drinking beer
all the time, I like to see him busy,' says
his wife Hilda.
"She's come to, -accept it," says Doug.
"She probably gets frustrated at times.''
NOT A TV SPORTS FAN
Though Hilda enjoys. going to Blue Jay
d�mes in Toronto, she is not the fan of
television sports Doug is and sometimes
there's a race to the 'Ta', for a favorite
program.
Doug would also like to see his children,
Chris and Stephanie, involved in sports
some day but he says he won't push them.
"Sports are good for any kid since they
involve good exercise and recreation but 1
never want to become a violent parent
spectator."
In the meantime, Doug continues to
shove stamps in his desk for a stamp
collection he plans to tackle some day while
he runs out the door to fastball and hockey
games.
And, as with anything, sometimes while
he's getting ready for work early Monday
morning after a late night at a game, he
wonders if it's all worth it. Bet, he soon
recharges his batteries in front pf the TV
watching what else - sports.

Hullett thinking
By Wendy Somerville
Hullett Township is already
"thinking winter."
During the '82-'83 winter
months, snow removal cost
the township $9,170. The '81-
'82 winter cost the township
$42,860 for snow removal. As
you may remember last
winter was unusually mild so
this may explain the large
decrease in snow removal
cost from the year before.
This year, Councillor R.
Gross and Councillor C. Vin-
cent are responsible for a
call for Tenders for snow
removal by the Road
Superintendent.
Tile Drain applications

J. Gibbon of Tot 2, concession
1; B. Shillinglaw of lots 6 and
7, concession 14; I. Pickett of
lot 15, concession 2. All ap-
plications are subject to
township bylaws and the
availability of funds.
A motion was carried by
Councillor Gross and Coun-
cillor Vincent that the Road
Superintendent apply to the
Ministry of Transportatfon
and Communications for an
interim subsidy.
The following huiMint per -
mits were approved by coun-
cil: B. Lockhart, tool shed;
L
Johnson, addition to a
barn; M. Datema, addition

tion to a house, B. Wallace,

A bylaw to impose special'
annual drainage rates upon
land was passed. The money
will be borrowed under the
Tile Drainage Act of 1971 in
the amount of $5,800.
The next council meeting
will be held on October 3 at
7:30 p.m.
