New rec Ie�gue
The first two games of the
newly organized Hensall
Men's Rec Hockey League
were played Sunday night in
the Hensall-Arena. Chairman
Jim Ferguson dropped the
puck to oldtimers Ron Mock
and Harold "Coog" Knight in'
the inaugural face-off.
Both Mbck and Knight have
been associated with hockey
from the time they could lace
on a pair of skates. Mock
helped organized Hensall
hockey when the original
arena with artificial ice was
opened in 1950, and he and
Knight played in the first
game on the new ice surface.
'Knight, a star of the
original Hensall in-
termediates, has been
refereeing minor hockey for
years.
The two men were on the
team when the Fundraisers
played CFPL in the first

This rec league is the start
of getting back to hockey like
it used to be around here",
Mock saki. "It's Hensall play-
ing Hensall, just for fun."
He commended Jim
Ferguson's efforts in organiz-
ing the new league, saying it's
good for the community to
have someone who has the
time, ability and enthusiasm
for this. "Jim's done a real
good job," he added.
Mock is not a member of
any of the four new teams. He
stopped playing goalie after a
puck smashed his cheekbone.
Knight has passed the torch
on to son Steve, captain of
the Blue team.
Final scores in the Sunday
games were 8-4 for the Greens
versus the Whites, and the
Blues beat the Reds by a
score of 13-7.
