This fall the South Huron intermediate hockey
league is starting its sexenth•consecutive season of
operation with nine teams in competition.
We would like td.pass on a bit of the background
information on this very popular apd each year more
successful hockey league. thanks mainly to the fine
executive in charge. - The idea -for formation of the South Huron hockey
league originated in the summer of 1970 from John
Stephens of Centralia " College of Agricultural
Technology in an effort to provide suitable competi-
tion.for. the students:
Percy Bedard. Zurich and Frank Fw(ston of
Huron Park were consulted to determine if the were
a sufficient number of good quality hockey p yers in
the South Huron area to corm a men's hockeyleague
of calibre between recreation hockey and ORA in-
termediate "C".
There proved to be enough players and a definite
need for the formation of a South Huron hockey
league.'.
Through a lot of bard work. Stephens, Bedard and
Funston along with a few others put together the first
constitution and.' successfullysolicited teams from
CCAT. Dashwood. Hensall,,\Huron Park and Zurich.'
Derry Boyle of -Exeter. was named the league's first
president..
Many changes have taken place over the years
which have altered the appearance of the league. In
the 1972-73 season Dashwood: dropped out and was
replaced by a new entry from Shipka. The following
year. the team from Hensall dropped -out and part way .
through.the•regi Oar schedule Arkona moved in.
In 1%7445- the entry from Huron Park withdrew
and a team from Exeter was entered; The following !.
year- the league - expanded with a new entry from =
Parkhtil and -tie recur- n oT-T iron ParkT .— — The next year 1976-77 further expansion took place- "
with Watford and Goderich moving in and the returns.
of Hensall. Watford withdrew before last season
started: The league is 'back to nine teams for the
current season with the acceptance of Kettle Point.
Derry Boyle•was the first president acid held that
position for one year. He was succeeded for the next
two years by Exeter policeman.Ardell MacIntyre. The
fourth .ear the league made an unsuccessful attempt
to operate *ith a committee rather than a president.
The big improvement. for the league and .its.
reputation came atthe beginning of the 1974-75 season
when John Ansley. then of Huron Park 'and now of
Grand Bend was brought in asleagiie president.
-Ansley was given a free Band to do what was
necessary, in order to improve the quality. of hockey.
refereeing. league administration and team manage-.
rent ' •
, We would like to pass on a large bunch of personal
congratulation!, to John Ansley for his hard ,and
dedicated -work in bringing real respectability to. the
• league.
John is starting his fifth year as president. Ted
McCahill of F.orest is the vice-president. John
Stephens is" treasurer. Ken Fagan is recording
secretary. Faye Reichert recording secretary and the
league statistician is Bob Somerville.
• Somerville has handled league statistics since its
inception and also deserves a hearty vote of thanks.
Brian Campbell of Hensall is referee-in=chief for, this
year.
Saddle clubto end season
One of the least _publicized sporting groups in the
area will be holding their annual awards banquet and
presentation Saturday. December 9 at the South

We- are speaking the Exeter Saddle Club. Com-
posed of about 68 members..most of whom live within
a 30 mile radius of Exeter: the Saddle Club is incor-
porated as a non-profit organization under. the Cor-
2poration Act by Letters Patent issued by the Province
of Ontario and 'all funds received are used to sustain
existing activities and' to develop new programs.
Since -its inception. the primary objective of the
Saddle Club Association has been to.encourage and
promote knowledge in the care, handling and enjoy-
ment of horses and in the science of horsemanship and
equitation.
In addition. through its youth activ• ities the club
has enabled junior riders.. most of whom are active
'members of -area 4-H clubs -to obtain practical ex-
perience in the art of pleasure and -trail riding as well
as provide aspirant compet+ktors with supervised train-
ing in all aspects of performance and gymkhana
events. • Y
