Clinton News Record, 1954-10-21, Page 12PAGE TWELVE CLINTON NEVVS-RECORD Tirtin,,§DAt oclosEii ,k The Colts' executive held one of their better meetings last Fri- day night. All these present were given enough time to voice his five cents worth and as a result we feel that they came up with a very wise decision — to enter a home-brew hockey team. The decision we might add was brought down after a phone ,call direct to the 011A- executive who were meeting in Toronto the same evening, and another call to Sea - forth. On the first cell it was found out that Mitchell, Milver- ton and New Hamburg were al- ready entered in the OHA. The executive were also told that these three teams were bringing in their full quota of imports, waivers and bonus players. -- If Clinton Was to enter this group the maximum of help (six men) would be required to be able to have a contender. The call to Seaforth was to find out if some . of the Seaforth Junior players who have become overage for that classification would be interested in playing for Clinton. This also drew a blank. The Seaforth play- ers had already been approached by 'Mitchell who without a doubt made a better offer financially than Clinton and they were ser- iously considering home-brew. At a meeting oh Monday night the Seaforth players did decide to enter), With no financial aSsist- ance and needing key players, the hockey men had to decide whether to drop out entirely or enter home-brew and keep hockey alive in Clinton; They chose to try to deVelop Clinton and district play- ers and drop out of the 011A. The OH.A. is reluctant to release Clinton because the Milverton, Mitchell, New Hamburg, Clinton series is the last Intermediate '13" group that they have in this area. They fear, and rightly so,if Clin- ton drops out and enters the WOAA, they might have trouble placing the remaining teams and should they become dissatisfied they too may want to enter the Rumours have is that the OHA executive are calling a special meeting of team representatives from last year's OHA Intermed- iate "B" entries to see what can be done about holding the group together. However, we feel that when they find out why Clinton cannot pessibly finance a team in their high-priced league that they will riot . hesitate to release the local team to the home-brew lea- gue of the WOAA. REDMEN REMAIN UNBEATEN; WITH 14-5 WIN OVER SEAFORTH CDCI Redmen took another step toward the HSSA championship when they handed Seaforth a 14-5 drubbing. The game, played in Seaforth Wednesday afternoon, was very close. Clinton took the lead early in the second quarter when Bruce Ashdown booted a field goal from the 20 -yard line. Seaforth took over and before the half had ended worked the ball to the Redmen's five -yard line where Ron Muir went over, The attempted convert was blocked. The score at half time read Sea - forth 5, Clinton 3. With Sharkey, Ron Steepe and Hughie •Colquhoun working from the half -back slots, the Redmen carried the ball to the Seaforth one -yard line. Bruce Ashdown was the payoff man, going over on a quarterback sneak. The attempt- ed convert went wide of the up- rights. Denny Weymouth was very alert on Clinton's final touchdown. Ashdown had been forced to kick on third down, the ball was fum- bled in the end -zone where Way - Mouth, who was down to tackle the ball carrier, fell on the ball. Ashdown converted and Clinton lead 14-5. HOW'S YOUR SUPPLY OF FUEL THESE, DAYS? Be ready for that quick drop in temper- ature! Order your Win- ter fuel Supply NOW ORDER FUEL NOW A. G.

Lions Club Helps Needy Families With Cash Raised A member of the Clinton Lions Club recently gave some interest- ing information regarding the work of thee club. He spoke of where part of the funds go and Che need for continuous public support of the various fund-raising activities. Not seeking any praise on their behalf, this informant told of how theacrielppilnetdonchLilidontso C51.1unubmheard_casemnot at a cost of •$105; that a, hospital bill for another child of $38 had been paid; that a needy family received free inn to the value of 51650. These services are the re- sponsibility of a special commit- tee, and only they know the names of the needy folk who have been given a 'helping hand in this way.. The remaining Club mem- bers are content to work to raise funds for such cases, knbvving their comMittee will handle such matters discreetly. Also, three capes . and five badges have recently been sup- plied to the Clinton Safety Pat- rol, supplementing those previous- ly supplied. Possibly the service clubs do not talk enough about their good works, but a good attendance at the Hallowe'en Skating Party in Clinton Lions Arena on Saturday, October 30 will be an incentive to the club to continue their good work.
