The Wingham Advance-Times, 1955-02-16, Page 10Fage Ten The Wingham Advance-Times, Wednesday, February 16, 1955 is Three Minor Teams In Hockey Playoffs Th© Wingham minor hockey pot boiling these days, with juveniles, midgets and bantams all in the play­ offs, and all doing pretty well by themselves. And although at this stage of the game it’s too early to make any predictions, the feeling is that a championship of some sort Should come out of it all. The juveniles started their best-of- three series with Durham on Monday With a 5-2 win. They will meet Dur­ ham again on Wingham ice on Wed­ nesday night and again on Thursday if a third game is necessary. The midgets played the first game of their group final with Mount Forest last night at Mount Forest. Their second game is scheduled for Thursday at Wingham and the third game will also be played at Wingham on Friday, if necessary. The bantams nave already won their group championship in two straight games with Palmerston, and started the first of their best-of-three series with Milverton last night. The second game will be played in Milverton on Thursday. Clifton Aitchison Former Resident Here.. Clifton Aitchison of Hespeler, who died suddenly in the hospital there, was a former resident of Wingham and Lucknow. For the past fifteen years he resided in Hespeler and was employed by the Hespeler Furniture Company. Mr. Aitchison was an elder in St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church and a member of the I.O.O.F. Lodge there. Born in Wingham 62 years ago, he was the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Aitchison. He leaves to mourn his passing, his wife, the former Emma Urquhart of Tiverton, two sons, Roy and Tom, of Peterborough and one granddaughter, and a brother, Horace Aitchison, of Wingham. Mr. Aitchison was predeceased by his parents, three brothers, Roy, Ern­ est, Aylmer and one sister, Mary (Mrs. Wm. Forster). A service was held on Sunday in Hespeler followed by service on Mon­ day, February 14th in the Johnstone funeral home, Lucknow, conducted by Rev. Mulholland, of Hespeler, assisted by Rev. MacClean of Lucknow Pres­ byterian Church. Burial was made in Wingham ceme­ tery. |On Parade! By Windy The RHQ and 99th Bty of the 21st Fd Regt held pay parade on Monday last, and need I say anything about the attendance? Yes, it was excellent. It also included members from Gode­ rich whom we see twice a year. But it is always nice to see their happy faces on pay day, that is. 0-0-0 Old Windy here had the chore of assisting the paymaster Lt. JU Step­ hens (known as moneybags) and watching their faces. It was the same as all pay parades in the army. Some blushed, some stammered, and some even growled. But I didn’t have to worry about my hand shaking, as the .leafy green stuff was just not in my hand. Bantams Swamp Palmerston 11«1 Wingham Kinsmen Bantams swamped Palmerston 11-1 last week to win their second straight game of the best of three series and enter the WOAA groiip playoffs. The locals got off to a slow start in the first frame, which was scoreless for both teams until Rae Hethering­ ton popped one in in the final two seconds of play. They came back strong in the second period with four counters, and in the final stanza they rung up six goals against a demoraliz­ ed opposition. Palmerstons lone tally game in the third period. ’ Scoring for Wingham were Heth­ erington, with six, O’Malley with two, and Ritchie, Brown and Baker with singles. Long scored for Palmerston. WINGHAM—Goal, Merkley; de­ fence, Ritchie, Redman; centre, Heth­ erington; wings, Brown, O’Malley; subs, Lockridge, Hotchkiss, Nasmith, Henry, Baker, Walker; sub goal, Carr. PALMERSTON—Goal, Lavelle; de­ fence, Hammond, Johnston; centre, Long; wings, Williams, Detweiler; subs, Henderson, Wright, Auld, Law­ rence. <4 0-0-0 Following pay parade, training went into full swing. Sgt Buck Sinnamon took over the main subject which was rifle drill and the boys put plenty of zest into it and Buck was in rare form. He was calm, cool and collect­ ive and why shouldn’t he be? He had enough money to buy headache aspir­ ins for a year. 0-0-0 7 B9WMNC Check Your MEDICINE CHEST For These Necessities ! i Dettol Antiseptic rhe modern treatment for cuts and abrasions 63c $1.10 REXALL FIRST AID Burn Ointment Stops pain promotes heal- r* ing, prevents blistering ' Mecca Ointment Old reliable, general purpose healer “The Home Remedy” Gauze Bandages Adhesive Tape - Absorbent Cotton 49c 98c STOCK UP NOW!

You see, Goderich has no equipment over there, so they must come here to train on the guns. And of course this unit must supply the best instructors. Okay Bill, quit blow­ ing up your chest. You look like a prize pigeon. 0-0-0 The QM stores was a busy place on training night with Sgt Lloyd Daw­ son supplying the excitement. He was checking on the equipment that each man had on his charge. He had one xeilow there who had the same name as one in the 99th Bty. He asked the man if he had a greatcoat and gloves, l'he man said no. Sgt Dawson inform­ ed the individual that he had signed ior it and therefore would have to pay ror it. Of course the man refused. So after Sgt Dawson had the man driven into the concrete to his armpits, the man said in a meek voice “That is not my initiaj.” You know, those blue eyes of Lloyd’s goes well with' his red face. 0-0-0 The trumpet band was practising upstairs in the officers' mess, and were in good tune thanks to Bdr •‘Lucky Bob” Hickey who is making a good job’ of the band. But he still needs more bulgers. How about you High School fellows? Want to take a whirl at it, come on take a chance.
