Did we have an interesting time, on Saturday, or didn't we?? It was a unique experienee4n my books and I'll bet my Diary that it wasn't anYOne's ay.erage soccer game! flow we ever won this game is the eighth wonder ef this. world; as the team we were "secperingu against were absolutely devoid of any sportsmanship or common courtesy. I'll admit we weren't at a Tea Party, but we were supposed to be playing soccer not War Games! Sound a little offbeat?? Sure as.heck was! ! The Yugoslav-Canadiani,played to win at all costs and tke cost (to us) was injury to a good player. We began the mat& with the usual tactics: play it cool, see how the opposition works, then get on with the job playing the game to your advantage. Okay, so we got it together and started iii- earnest to check and cover, but the challenges were coming con- stantly and United was really hard -put to gain control of the ball and take it anywhere near their zone. They had a very good forward line and they knew their stuff. It was too long before the Yugoslays scored the first goal and United really tried to take thd offensive and retrieve some lost ground. Both teams did quite a bit of scrimmaging for the ball and no sonner would make a great Move when the opposing man would take over the ball again. We eventually had an indirect free kick given to us and with the craftiness and alertness of long years Harold Ref- flinghaus quickly sent a pass over to Dave Graf who sneaked in a goal to tie up the game. Well done, guys! We figured, we could pick up ourrhythrn now and we really started to connect. Goderich began to read each other out and move in on the ball with easy control, sp we knew it would just be a matter of time until we scored again and took overMiPletely. But barely minutes before this half was to end; we were faulted and the Yugoslays were awarded a free kick. Well, no hassle about that we thought, but no sooner had our player turnirthis back to walk over to his position, when.. an opposition player made an unprovoked and unwarranted assault on our United man, namely Brian Allen. Theeferee quickly sent the Yugoslav members off the field but that seemed to incense the opposition even further. When the remaining minutes of the first half had been played out, everyone was in a state of shock. How could such an event have occurred? Such wilfull (willful) intent to inflict hurt on a completely guileless 'person like Brian really baffled me and everyone who had observed this spectacle. Not only was the offending player ,sent from the field, but later the goalie, as well. Warnings were given repeatedly by the referee to this team. , We played fairly well despite the flak the Yugoslays gave us. As the second 45 minutes was called into action, the 'United team' was- calm ',and very determined to win this game.. Not with tempers flaring, not with_underhanded snipes and notjwithout sportsmanship. 'Folks, y'tra better believe Goderich Unitedis a very special soccer team. They truly care about each other and, they love to play a good brand of 'Soccer; so they showed you can win out with gentlemanly behaviour and skilful deter- minaticin. We didn't shine,. but neither were we dull. We couldn't seem to hold onto that ball for any' chance of maneuvering into a suitable position for shooting on the net. The match had only about twenty minutes to go when Alex Varga (the old smoothie) :passed the ball to Harold Ref- flinghaus who then shotit to Clare Sager. Clare tapped the ball into the goal neatly and quickly to give us a2-1 lead. That seemed to light the fire under us and shortly af- terwards, fain Lambert took a shot on net and scored off- side, so it -wasn't a legal goal. This only served to make us try even harder and we were rewarded for our efforts as Harold belted in our third goalof the game. In the dying minutes of this half, a pass was sent way over to Rick Fisher who zapped in the ball from'a sharp .angle and she was in!! Goal number, four. felt pretty good and.barely moments, later the whistle rought the game to a halt. We'wonlair and square, 4-1. The entire Goderich team receives a "Foxy Mama Special." They were exemplary anditade no retaliation on any member of the Yugoslav team because of their attitude: Time after time they withstood the .constant heckling, and hassling and in the face Of this they persevered and quietly played their game. If they -sound too good to be true, believe it; they're good and they're true! Player -of -the -day is Dave Graf who has the heart and soul of a tiger! He played intelligently and expertly and was definitely a plus to us in the face of adversity. Sportsman -of -the -day is 'naturally, Brian Allen. He required21 stitches to his mouth and he came out smiling (or trying to! ! ) Poor ole Brian! Fella, you're an okay guy! Thank you for this .win, United! We're 'proud to be your "groupies"! . • The Goderich United Falcons' game, was cancelled; to be rescheduled at another date. (tough break, guys) They don't play again for two weeks.

Consultant for the ministry of industry and tourism said the Trade Mart was "neither a gigantic success nora. gigantic failure," but he personally felt there would, not be another one. "It was- an experiment - the first in Ontario and we weren't sure it would work," he, said. , "The Trade Mart was organized to be a com- munication forum, like a convention, where manufac- turers in Huron County mild meet inforrhally to find out what their neighbour's make." Mr. Hawke said that many manufacturers were bringing raw material in from outside of the region When they could get it from within the County if only they knew who to deal with. Commenting on ,the feeling expressed by some of the 20 exhibitors in attendance that the Trade Mart was a failure, Mr; Hawke said, "The trouble today is that spmething isn't considered successful if you don't make a buck from it. The Trade Mart was getup for the exchange of ideas not to make sales or contracts." Fred Looker of Hearn Wholesale Ltd., Clinton, said the Trade Mart failed to at4act more manufacturers because it was a novel idea. , "It is the first Trade Mart and people don't know that much about it," he said', ad- ding, that following 1 rade -Nlarts would probably draw more exhibitors. "The idea has good potential. Some people here didn't know we even existed until they cAnie to the Thide.Mart;12-tg'said, Pat Newington.;i4 X1.0- Wiidox, Clint -on. said the Trade .Mart of,fei•eci an opportunity for us to introduce ourselves to all, the companies in Huron County," but felt that it wouldn't accomplish alot. "It's company policy to.deal ...with manufacturers in the County first before going outside ,of the area," he said,. "so, we're .already practising what the Trade Mart is preaching." Fleck Manufacturing of Centralia has been in the region just over a year, and representative Don Appleby said, the Trade Mart was a good idea. "Some industries didn't even know we are in the municipality." He didn't know how successful the Trade Mart would be, but said, "Without participating you could never te,i what it could achieve." Spence Meecham of Benaix Home Systems Ltd:, Herisall, attended the Trade Mart as an exercise of the "good neighbour policy." We're for ,i'any and all progressive steps 'that will improve relations between .manufacturers in the region, though'there seems to be a lack of retailers here," he.said Exe-Fibercrpft Ltd., Exeter found a manufacturer of sailboat trailers in the County at the: Trade Mart who they would probably deal with in the future rather than with • a company outside of the region - concrete proof, Bill Hawke said, that the Trade Mart can work Fibercraft representative, Mary Caton said the Trade Mart was "a fantastic idea," but was disappointed in the lack 'of displays. "1 don't think there was enough advertising for it, he said. The Trade Mart concept inlay not have been a success but Mr. Hawke said the need to bring the manufacturers together still remains. "The Trade Mart isn't , as exciting as we'd like it, I think we'd bring more main) fac-• tiii`ers together if their meetiti'g ,eniild be 'arranged around a. dinner. v',••, -may try that in Woodstock ' he said.
