Never an overwhelming financial success, the day pays off in other ways, It gives parents and citigens an opportunity to observe what is being done for minor sport in town and district. Outside teams are brought in to further test the ability of the local teams. Promoted by a Committee of Kinsmen, Lions, Fish and Game Club and the Legion members, it has erdertained two teams from Dearborn, Michigan, for the past three years. Banquet The weekend began with a banquet at the Legions. Hail, catered 'ta by the Legion Laid- les Auxiliary. The American teams and their officials and Clinton bantam and midget pl- ayers ware guests. Many par- ents and service club officials attended. Guest Speaker "Red" Sullivan, playing .coach of the Kitchener Beavers and formes' professional star with Boston, Chicago and New York, was introduced by M. L. "Tory" Grigg as "one of the greatest competitors that ever played in the NHL. The speaker reviewed his hockey playing days from min- or to professional. He stressed to his young listeners to keep up with their education as wen as sports. "Hockey is 75 per- cent skating ability," said Mr. Sullivan, who was not a good skater when young. He said he was determined to over- come this and did. The 'president of the CAHA, Jack Roxburgh, Simcoe, who is an annual visitor to Clinton's minor- ,hockey day, spoke of hockey at the international lev- el. He has accompanied Canad- ian teams to Europe on differ- ent occasions "Minor sport is much deeper than playing ability," said the CAHA president, "it is the bas- is of social and businessability in later years." John Cooper Scores Six Goals Midgets Squash Dearborn 11.4 The final game of the minor hockey weekend was the most rugged affair, when the. Lions - sponsored Midgets defeated Dearborn Bruins 11-4. Clinton was assessed nine penalties and Dearborn six. The Cooper -Yeo -McRae line accounted for 14 scoring points with John Cooper getting six goals. He was in the right scoring .position at every op- portunity. The Dearborn players were big and strong, but like the other Dearborn team showed a lack of skating ability. Dave Thompson, in the Dearborn goal was • the busiest man on the ice, and if his team had made the score closer, could have been packed as one of the stars. Three Star Awards John Cooper, who scored) six goals and two assists, was pick- ed as the most valuable player of the ,gain. He was .awarded the Anstett Jewellers trophy and hockey snick autographed by the Detroit Red Wing hoc- key curb.
