s ; u3 AGE SIX Donald Hindson, THVS student, who has been laid up for the past week or so, is back again. By DOUG McLELLAN YOUTH CURLS TODAY: The roaring game of curling has never been known as a young mans‘ game in this country but things are changing rapidly. In the recent Porcupine Annual Bonspiel tihe team coping the second prize in the second event consisted of four youths just out of their teens. The quartet, skipped by Bill Longworth and ably aided by Bill Pearce, Jim Hall and Pete Douglas made things hot for all comers, young and old. In true youth style, the rink didn‘t wear the ordinâ€" ary curling togs but donned colorful sports shirts for the. event. ..... + N.O.H.A. PLAYâ€"OFF: Carlo Cattarrello‘s Junior B entry in the N.O.H.A. playâ€"offs managed to push aside the Geraldton crew last weekend but they knew they were in a battle before the final whistle had sounded. The South Enders had little trouble in the first game of the goalsâ€"toâ€"count series as they walked away with an 8â€"4 verdict but the second game was a horse of a different color, for a few anxious moments at least. Halif way through the second contest the Cattarelloâ€"Quesnel crew found themselves on the~short end of a 5â€"1 count and thus all tied up on the round. Then the roof fell in for the Gerâ€" aldton aggregation as the South Enders pumped home no less than nine goals with only one weak reply from the losers. The win gave the victors the right to meet Rouyn in the next round for the N.O.H.A. laurels. . . ... JUYENILE: The local juvenile playâ€"offs got under way this week with Timmins Lions meeting the South End Tee Pees and the Combines tangling with the Schumacher Lions. The genâ€" eral cpinion is the South End Tee Pees will win"everything in a walk again this year but don‘t be too sure of that. In the first round they meet the Timmins Lions a team that has alâ€" ready given them a bad beating this year. Should they survive this series they will be faced with the Schumacher Lichs, a team that is a long way from a pushâ€"over. The Schumacher entry only managed a tie with the League Leaders this. year but anything can happen yet as the Schumacher kids are just starting to hit their top form. In any case if you want| to see some firstâ€"class hockey be sure and take in the doubleâ€"header at the Mac tomorrow night with the four teop teams in action. _THIS WEEK _ AT THE " Mac" PLAYâ€"OFF PATTERN: Although you could never tell by the standout performance he turned in, ElvonKavanagh, fancy dekeâ€"artist of the Porkies, was playing last Saturday night‘s game with a terrificâ€" headache. The speedy Kavanagh was bothered all through the game by a toothache and had to have it extracted right after the game. ... The hardest bodycheck dealt out in some time was thrown Johnny Kovich by hardâ€" hitting Neil Pirie the other night in South End. Kovich was out like the proverbial cucumber and was never the same after it. . .. Lou Mathieu, rugged Holtinger rearguard got out of bed to play in last Saturday‘s game. The former Eskimo was bedded down with the flu and it was very doubtful right up to game time whether or not he would play. . . . Stew Pirfe was another doubtful starter for last Saturday‘s game but he too refused to sit on the sidelines. Pirie injured his back in Wednesday night‘s game and had considerable trouble with it for a day or two. . A surprising highlight of the Greenshirts stand has been the work of blueline basher, Dino Narduzz1. A inâ€"andâ€"out player dll season, Narduzzi rose to great heights in the playâ€"offs and deserves a large slice of the credit due to the Greenshirts. .. | . 2toud $ MQOYVLNXG a«< S T OR AG E Don‘t kiake A Move ... without consuiting us!

To be perfectly frank with you we were all set to tell you about tre Porkies winning the crown at the McIntyre on Monday night, but Jackie Young‘s crew didn‘t see things that way, and so the serigs had ot go to the limit before an eventual winner. One thing that can be said aboui those Greenshirts is that they are a club that doesn‘t know when the are beaten. The odds were very much against them right from the opening whistle but they didn‘t see it that way There were fans who bet that they wouldn‘t win one game let alone force the series to the limit. Then last . Saturday they absorbed a 5â€"0 shellacking from the South Enders and fans thought that they were going to cttend the funeral of the Greenshirts at the Mac on Monday. The ywere down and practically out but up they got and _ bopped the powerful Porkies. Alex Brownlee was the big stumbâ€" ling block in the upset as he blocked rubber from all angles. The big break of the game was when he made the save on Ross Richardson in the dying minctes of the last stenza. With the scoreboard at 4â€"3 for the Greenies, Richy walked in on Brownâ€" lee and only a ‘miracle save‘ by the aging veteran saved the day. Hollingâ€" er then potted another one to salt it away. But getting back to last night‘s game, we will still stick with the Porkies to cop the crown, but just between you and I, we gre not quite so sure of a Porkies win as we were on other occasions, as those Greenâ€" shirts don‘t know when they are beaten. . f The boys at Mountjoy, drawing water from the river, through the holes in the ice, at. various points.

HAND NEE THE AXE LEROUX GETS OFF DOUG McLELLAN Die Hards THE PORCUPINE be said about How do you do, friends, I greet you after a week‘s absence which was beâ€" yond my powers to correct. To those who might wonder what I have been doing I might say that I have just spent a very enjoyable few days, like a sultan prince of the orient. Surrounded by beautiful girls, reâ€" clining on soft pillows, listening to sweet music, having people urge chocâ€" olates and sweet drinks upon mz, inâ€" haling the alluring pleasant scents of besutiful flowers, I have been having a wonderful time. If I wanted anything I merely had to pull a string at my elbowâ€"all in all it was luxury and pleasure at its best. No one so much s mentioned homeâ€" work assignments, or said you have to do this or you have to do thatâ€"Et was great! There was only one thing wrong with this resort, the skiing was no hangâ€"â€"but they mad it so intresting just eating, sleeping snd visiting that I never wanted to go skiing. "The amazing thing about this place was the cost. For those mercenary people (arn‘t we all with Easter comâ€" ing up) I am happy to relate that all this cost me only my appendix! Seriously, though, I would like to thank one and all who have been so good to me in so many ways this past week. The nurses at the hospital were wondcrful as are also all the people that have come and visited me and made the time pass so quicklyâ€"Yes gals I‘ll be back at school in a couple of days â€" Gee I feel sick all of a sudden. ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO . . I would also like to thank all thne teachers that have expressed such an interest in the job at hand. 1 will be back to avail my a couple of days WR I havent been able to get down to the high school very often this week so I will have to sketch any news in a rather brief and hasty fashion, howâ€" ever here goes. SENIOR BASKETBAILLERS oN RAMPAGE Timmins High and Vocational School seniors have been unbeaten since their second game this season. Their accuâ€" mulation of amazing victorious was climaxed last weekâ€"end with a 66 to 53 victory over North Bay in the Bay. This sounds encouraging as the Bay squad are reported to have beaten Timmin‘s rivals, Kirkland Lake. Timâ€" mins suffred their only loss in the league this year to the powerful Kirkâ€" land squad. The recent win over North Bay makes the situation sound hopeful, when Timmins will meet Kirkland once again about March the tenth. I‘m sure the much improved Timâ€" mins team will be able to give Kirk â€" land z good go this time. Talk is up concerning the hiring of busses to take the students to see the game. It‘s a good idea keep it up. A team always plays better when it is well supported. LOCAL SKIERS PLACE Timmins High and Vocationel skiers captured three firsts at the Hailey: bury Northern Ontario meet â€" two weeks ago. Norm Lillie received a first in "A" class slalom.â€" Burry Brewer C@me first in "C" class jumping and hill. . Congratulations, fellows. Last weekâ€"end Garth â€" Brillingor pulled off two seconds, in jumping and down hill at the North Bay meet. Congrats Garth. If all this isn‘t enough, there will be Porcupine CSki Club championâ€" chips held this weekâ€"end. These races are open to all ages and classes, the only stipulation â€" being that you belong to the club. Lets see you all out The following weekâ€"end there will be the Winter Carnival races, so all in all ons can see that February and March are the skiers months. Local girls bemoaning the fact that boyfriend _ skiers have not â€" been around the last few weekends, may take consolation in the fact that the races the next two weeks will be held in Timmins and vicinity. We urge these fair damsels, however, to take compassion â€" on forementioned friends zs they should be in by ten o‘clock so as to keep in training! One Thing Wrong vail myself of your services in IGH to thank all the WINTER CARNIVAL STARTS THIS WEEK Arrangements for the Wintér Carâ€" nival to be held in Timmins High under the joint sponsorship of the HI Y.â€"and TRIL Y have been practiâ€" cally completed and students of Timâ€" mins High are looking forward to activities with enthusiastic relsh. Fellowstudents and _ friends of Marion McDonald are glad to see her back zt school after a recent knee inâ€" jury. Marion has been laid up since before the Snow Ball, so I imagine she is glad to get back. Someone said, Wolfe leads the way down the hell and Marion comesright behind. I immediately thought of Wally and wondered how he managed to get to his own classes on time and do this at the same time, when I suddenly remembered that there were other wolves. Nice to have two kind Samaritan‘s, eh, Marion? DRAMA SHAPING UP One of the three plays to be preâ€" sented at Playnight has been chosen and casted by Mr. Jury, while the other two are scon to be announced. Students should support this with persistaent efforts of a few â€" hard all they hkhave, for its through the workers that you are able to have a play night this year. Lets see you get in there gang. Norm Lillie seems to have quite an interest in Haileybury the past few. weekâ€"ends. They must . have pretty good hills I guess. Norm seems to find other attractions also. Any way as long as the people he meets in Haileybury make him produce the results like he did two weeks ago we won‘t crab. I hope you have a good time Norm. Congratulations go to June Avery who celebrated her seventeenth birthâ€" cay this past week. Act accordingly peoples I‘m getting a little tired so I think I will have the underwood put me to bed this week, and bid you all good night. Thanks again‘ for everyâ€" thing.

Langdon, new citizens hed to go to Cochran»e to receive their citizenship papers, the general feeling was that the plan could be worked here, until such time as there is a new jhdicial district Viceâ€"President P. H. Laponte, who was in the chair for the day, in the absence of President Geo. Knowles, read a couple of letters from local mithers graaeful for the kindness and help given to crippled children. In writing to chsirman W. Rinn, one mother wrote: "IL want to sincerely thank you or what your wonderful club has done." The achisvement committee report submitted by G. A. Macdonald, showed that last year Sudbury headed this division for the first quarter and Sault Ste. Marie for the second quartâ€" er with Timmins a close second for these two quarters. For the last two quarters, Timmins club had the highest standing in the divigion, and its percentages for the whole year gave it first place for the year as a whole. The standing for January of this year was 90.9, full points being won for all activities, tatendance and membership being the only two departments less than 100 per cent.
