FORD-EDSEL •SALES & SERVICE SOUTH STREET PHONE 83 T E G DERIC NAME TENTATIVE LONE -UP • Sailors Seek To Scuttle Indians In Friday Debut Goderich Sailors will make their eagerly -awaited debut when they play Stratford .Indians in an ORA Junior "B" game at Goderach Mem- orial Arena this Friday night. The Sailors were scheduled to play their first game in Seaforth tonight, but the contest was can- celled due to a break -down in the ice plant at Seaforth. At a Goderieh Booster Club meeting last week, Sailors was the name chosen for the new team which will play in a seven -team league with St. Marys, Seaforth, Stratford, Woodstock, London and Sarnia. The team is this town's first OHA Junior "B" entry in history, and it comes at a time when there is a province -wide boom in Junior "13" hockey. When the Sailors skate out onto the ice here Friday night, many fans will undoubtedly be recalling memories of the Goderich Louzon Flyers, the classy squad which brought this town the OHA Junior "C" title about 10 years ago. Entry into the OHA Junior "B" Western Division should guarantee local and district hockey fans plenty of action this winter. Junior hockey has a reputation fir being fast and rugged. The advance sale of tickets for the first game has been very good, reports Jack Evans, who is one of the driving forces behind the new team. A Booster Club campaign for funds to help finance the team is also meeting with a very gratify- ing response, say members of the executive. The Sailors' line-up for thip first game Was still rather tentative at press time, but Ikon Williamson may start in goal. He was net - minder for last year's OMHA cham- pion Goderich Midgets. There is a possibility that Coach Williams might decide to try George Har- bottle, from Clinton RCAF Station, between the pipes for part of the game. Defence Pairs The defence pairs may be Jim Bain, of Wingham, • and Bill Fritz - ley, of Goderich; Hugh McMillan and Roy Emberlin, both of Luck - now, and Ross Pennington, of Goderich, and Barry Wilson, of Clinton RCAF Station. It is likely that Bill Robinson, of Goderich, will centre the first for- ward line. His wings will be Den- nis Carpenter and Don Coss, both of Clinton RCAF Station. Other forwards are Bill Gallow and Fred IsraeLs, who both played great hockey for last season's title -win- ning Goderich (Midgets; Barry Fry- fogle, Jim Campbell and Doug Murray, all of Winghaan. It will .be no surprise if a few changes Fare ,made between now and game time. A couple of husky lads ,from Kincardine may possibly turn up in Goderich uniform and there are other prospects. Ice was ready Sunday when the Goderich club held its first home practice, and practices were also held Monday and Tuesday nights of this week. Though the Sailors won't form the heaviest team in the league, it will be a fast -skating crew with plenty of emphasis on good pass- ing, Coach Williams expects. Tuesday night, the Seaforth team was swamped 15-0 by Woodstock. On Wednesday morning, Seaforth officials contacted the Goderich club to say that the game ,sche- duled for tonight in Seaforth would have to be cancelled due to a break -down in the ice plant there. The Stratford team, which will play here tomorrow night, is, like •Goderich, a new entry in OHA Junior "B" competition. Many of the Stratford players are drawn from the ranks of minor hockey in that city. St. John's Pee Wees Coming St. John's, Newfoundland, branch of the Canadian Legion, which sponsored an entry in 'Young Can- ada Week at Goderich last Easter Week, is again sponsoring Pee Wee hockey in the St. John's area dur- ing the 1957-58 season. The Legionary magazine contains an article stating that some 500 young boys will gain hockey ex- perience as a result of this spon- sorship. Plans also call for the pick of the St. John's Pee Wees to travel to the Canadian mainland again to participate in several hockey tournaments, including Young Canada Week. The St. John's branch has been sponsoring Pe Wee hockey for the past three years. "It was one of the finest ventures any organiz- ation could undertake," comment- ed the Mayor of St. John's. Biggest thrill was when the team appeared on Ed. Sullivan's Show in New York City, following their particip- ation in Young Canada Week.

Deer Hunt Under W� r The bushlands of Huron County echoed to the sound of tramping feet early Tuesday morning as deer hunters got out early for the opening of the season in this County. The turnout of hunters was quite heavy and the deer were fairly numerous, too. While we have no report of all deer caught, we managed to hear of a few. Among them were Bob McLean, Les and Ron Hoy and other hunters/ who bagged two at Benmiller and one at Megaw. Mervyn Boyce got a small doe in Goderich Township. The deer season in Huron ends on Friday. Three deer bunters tfrom Gode- rich joined in an annual deer hunt at a camp( Parry Sound last week. Th were Austin Purdy, Archie Johnston and George Mac- Kinnon. At the same camp were Dr. John Seesof Milton, and Cecil and Barry Attridge, of Toronto, all formerly of ;Goderich. There were 12 in the party altogether.,The group bagged a total of nine deer and one 200 pound ,pear. 0-----0--- 0 WI Meet Topic ' Is "Human Heart" •••••••••••••M••••••••••••••••••••••••••NtM••••••••••••••• ••••••••••••r•••••••"•NN•••••••••••• •• • • • • • • • • r. • s • • • • •• • • • • S • • 1 • • • • • • • • • 1CAMPBELL'S New Ultra -Modern : i IDA DRUG STORE SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 16 s •. • •• •• • ••.••N•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••NN••••••••••••••••••••NN•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• I AN EFFICIENT LAY -OUT TO BETTER SERVE YOUR NEEDS. • WIN Any of Ten Valuable FREE DRAW PRIZES on OFFICIAL 1 • • OPENING DAY — • SATURDAY • Among these prizes will be a Sheaf'er Pen and Pencil Set, lovely ladies' and men's gift toilet sets, Laura Secord • candies, etc. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••N••••••••••••••••er D••••••••••••••N••••••••••••••••• Free Chocolate Bars To - Children If Accompanied By Parent. • •••••••••••••••••••••N••NN••••••••••••••NN••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• A FEW QF THE MANY SPECIALS TO CELEBRATE OUR OPENING.

Wong A crudely masked man, brandish- ing a gun, held up Gordon Wong, formerly of Goderich, on Wednes- day of last week in his Chop Suey House at 207 Champlain street, Hull. He 'made off with $88. The thief approached Mr. Wong at the cashier's table as he was counting the day's receipts. "Give me your money," the thief demand- ed, pointing a gun at Mr. Wong. Gordon hesitated,. a moment and then offered him a dollar. "I want all of it," the thief ordered. Given the money, he fled out the door. Mr, Wong's wife and two, chefs witnessed the robbery from the rear of the shop. 0 0— o CLINTON . WOMAN IS GUEST SPEAKER AT NORTH ST.
