The NHL. Division ended lnschedule, with the fever pitch of a tie for second and third posi-’ tion and on Monday afternoon a sudden death playoff ws played in which Canadiens defeated the Hawks 3-0. So the way the NHL. lines up for the semi-ï¬nals is: ï¬st game - Wings vs Hawks and 2nd game Canadiens vs Leafs on Shturday afternoon. ' the playoffs coming on Saturday, .the executive feels that an ad- mission at the gate should be charged. Thus for the remainder of March, all fans come into the arena on Saturday afternoon at a charge of 25c to help ï¬nance Pee Wee Hockey in Richmond . Hill. Playoff action starts at the local arena on Saturday, March 7, in the Little O.H.A. and NHL. after 14 Satur- days of real keen hockey the winners have been decided and are off and ‘running for all the top honours. In the 0. HA. Division Marlboros and Flyers start off the semi- ï¬nals with Athe Canadiens and T‘ePees playing the second esides operating 16 teams in th O.H.A. and NHL Divisions, an All-Star team was picked from each group, and they have been playing exhibition games with other 'towns in this area. Both teams have made very good show- ings. The O.H.A. All Stars have been coached by John Gropp as- sisted by Brydon Ellis, Roy Ogil- vie and Eric Charity. 10 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, March 5, 1959 game. During the playoffs, the R'o minute red light is not going to be 'used, it is going to be the coaches who win or lose the game. The executive feels this is only fair to the coaches to call the “shots†in the playoffs. They have played six games and have won four, tied one and lost one, which is a very enviable record. The players have gained a tremendous amount of experiâ€" ence in the series. The NHL. All Stars coached by Jim Pollard and Les Markle have also a very good record. They played six games and have won four and tied two, with a 30 goals for and seven goals against record. Little O.H.A. '8. NHL. Play-Offs Saturday Both teams have been well re- ceived on all outâ€"ofâ€"town visits and are holding the name of Rich- mond Hill very high in hockey circles. ' So at the end of the regular Mr. Ed.

Both of these teams are of the rough and ready school of wrest- ling and either side will stop at nothing to win a match. Now Diamond and Jensen have appeared around the district ma- ny times in the past few years and have caused more riots, and Jensen especially, has hurt more wrestlers than any one in the ring today.

A draw has been held to raise funds and the winners are: R. Clowe, Richmond Hill; Miss A. Shaw, King City; and Miss S. Brown, Richmond Hill. Football was made possible in Richmond Hill by the efforts of Mr. E.

The play- ers and executive express apprec- iation to these and to all other public-spirited and sports-minded people who donated to their funds. Once Hunted â€" Now Are Hunters If further information is desir- ed, it may be obtained by phon- ing W. J. Points at TU. 4-1944, from 7 to 10 pm. Hunting is now restricted to the hardy individual ‘who revels in winter scenery and crisp, fresh air. In most areas of the Lake Simcoe District, strolling through the fields and brush lands is im- possible. Snowshoes are neces- sary, and even this method is not recommended due to the depth a snowshoe will sink into the light snow. Beside the weight of the snowshoe. a person must also lift gri‘eitra 'few. pounds of snow the webbing. This cessation of hunting activ- ities is generally a break for the hunted but at this time it is creat- ing a situation which is not ap- preciated by either game animals or birds. The food supply is now limited to any available species of plant. above snow level, that will sustain life. Although the part- ridge is quite comfortable, with plenty of buds in the deep cedar valleys, the pheasants are finding it very tough to keep going. Deer are now confined in their yards, unable to forage outside this area, and are existing on cedar. The jack rabbit is possibly suffering the Worst of all at the present time. The depth of snow on the wheat fields and hay field has made it impossible for the Jack to dig down to grass roots.

Hans deH-euse and Peter Hiscott played well with Peter getting the other goal on a ï¬ne low shot from the point. The Aurora team played much better than the score would indicate and were held off the score board many times by Dave “Gabby†Sims in the local net. The line of Eddie Addison, Ian Ross and Tommy Reynolds play- ed exceptionally well and kept the play in the Aurora end most of the time they were on the ice. They are a really ï¬ne checking line. According to Coach "Red" Garner this line is just as im- portant to the team as the high scoring lines and he feels that one of these days they will start to score goals, and when they do, look out. Aurora Bantam “Lions†had a small shock coming to them last Friday at the Richmond Hill Ar- ena as the Richmond Hill “Blue- liners†downed them by a 5 to 1 score. This defeat was enjoyed by the locals who lost a few weeks ago to this same team by one goal. Without the services of Richie Elliott and Rodney Kelson, the Blueliners called up Jim Briden and Dennis Richardson from the house league and they played very well with Briden accounting for two of the ï¬ve goals and Ri- chardson ï¬tting in on defnnse. Bruce Walker got two of the other three goals, one a ï¬ne solo effort, and the other on a ï¬ne pass out from Dean Wainwright who was flying all night.
