By RANDY MCDONALD Sports Editor Barrie Flyers plan to be much part of what is shaping up as rejuvenated tario Hockey Association Senior League this season The belttightening of the professional hockey leagues has already benefitted the now expanded nine team loop Between 2530 pros have contacted the Flyers on the possibility of joining the Senior team said general manager Steve Cripps Wednesday One pro the Flyers have signed for the approaching season is Doug Ferguson The 23yearltold defeiiceman just finished the final season of threeyear contract with the Philadelphia Flyers of the Na tional Hockey League Ferguson played most of the past season with the Philadelphia Firebirds of the North American Hockey League He joined the Phillys organization after Hamiltoti Fincups and Oshawa Generals Cripps said the senior loop was waiting on decision by the World Hockey Association tWHAt as to whether it wanted to involve itself directly with senior hockey this season If so it could mean up to five pros placed on each of the clubs in the senior league Cripps said The fat contracts once passed out with reckless abandonment now haunt pro hockey While there are still good hockey players coming out of junior leagues and playing in the socalled semipro leagues there just doesnt appear to be the bread around for club to gamble with anymore Few established let only the new fran chises have the extra change to carry player iii its farm system anymore The decision by the HA to trim its play ing roster to 28 players per team means up to 20 players lootloose without contracts This is one reason ripps feels senior hockey will he more or less of semipro successful Junior career with the calibre Red SOX strike early to defeat Indians 85 Barrie Red Sox won their second in as many nights with 85 decision over the Midland Indians at the Eastview Athletic Park Wednesday The win moved the Red Sox within one game of the In dians who hold down second place of the north division of the South Siincoe Baseball League It also restored some measure of prestige lost Sun day in 122 humbling at the hands of the same Midland squad Red Sox faced three hurlers in the game collecting nine hits including solo homer by first baseman Ernie Fraser like Timmons pitched six tull innings before Kevin Beaupre came in to relieve in the seventh Timmons struck out two and gave up six of the eight Midland hits for the win Ildldlld was held hitless for three innings while the Red Sox knocked Midland starter Willis out of the game in the second inning Red Sox had three runs to their credit oft

Mississauga under its wing It divided itself into north and south divi sion and trimmed its playing schedule by 12 games The two divisions meet in an interlock ing schedule with thefllyers looking to 16 home games this season compared to the 22 of last year This season the Thunder Bay Twins have more active role participating fully in the schedule Last season the Twins played an abbreviated schedule due to cost of travel and weekend allowance for games Last season was big change for the senior league ripps said It was the first time in four or five years the league went all the way through without team folding In fact the senior league had Iurnctl down the request for entry from number of other centres Flyers are not the otin club preparing for the 197677 campaign All clubs it

family is rugged rearguard Flyers are hoping will blend in to its organization Flyers will also have new look this season The club has traded in its green and whites for the flashing colors of the

will spend some $1500 to renovate the second floor of the Barrie Arena for use by booster club Flyers want to glassin the balcony and archways cut into the brick wall of the large meeting room The club had asked for reduced rental fee which when com bined from the expected income from the booster club would help the club finance the work Last season the Flyers spent over $16000 in ice rental Cripps said The Flyers had asked for exclusive use of this area and this apparently caused some concern among city officials Perhaps exclusive was the wrong word to use said Cripps What we want IS first priority over its use In other words Flyers dont want some group using the facilities on the nights of their games Cripps pomted out that all senior clubs have booster club For some the money
