« . oo 4 ' 4 . After placing third in the Canadian junior mixed title championship in 1965, Anna Forder and Richard Stephens, took top honours by winning the 1966 championship in Peterborough last Thursday, "The .win is more noteworthy considering Anna, 14, and Richard, 17, have only skated together for three years and that most of their training had te be done away from home. In competition with three other pairs, and with a small, but enthusiastic Port Perry crowd, the young couple gave a dazzling performance on the Peterborough ice, léaving no doubt, te the five judges that the honour was deserved. Anna and Rchard were accompanied by their respective methers, Mrs, H. R. Forder and Mrs. Wm. Stephens, who no doubt are the happiest mothers in Port Perry these days. The two ladies, and their husbands, who have been attending skat- ing practices and competitions during this three-year period, emcouragng and stimulating them, must be given some share in the great success of their children. The coaches this season, Bruce and Marg Hyland of the Tam O'Shanter Figure Skating Club, Agincourt both predict a bright future for the young champions, also deserve a share in the success. However, first of all .it was the combined effort of Anna and Richard who brought the honours Jo the home town, Port Perry. (We do resent the fact that the Oshawa Times, on the front page of ithe Tuesday; "February 15th "issiie Tay ¢laim to The = eoupleCand says, "Top Honors for Oshawa skaters".) Invitations to make guest appearances at various carnivals have come in from Barrie, Tillsonburg, Brantford, Huntsville, Stouffville and naturally their own club Port Perry. Because of the tight schedule, invitations from Clinton, N.Y, and Ottawa, Ont,, much to the dissappointment of the two, had te_be de- elined. i I Next year, Anna and Richard will move into the senior class. Competition here will be a great deal keener, and will also demand harder training and greater sacrifice. Competitions will be many, and laurels more difficult to win. The aim will first be the Canadan senior champignships then, the North American title, World title, and last but not least the 1968 Olympics. Amna and Richard are young, and have the- desire to 'win, and will no doubt do their utmost in future competitions. On behalf of all the Star's readers, congratulations are extended to the young couple for the excellent effort last Thurs- day and wishes for infinite success in future competitions, Town Foreman May Quit Job Port Perry Council met in wd Kila Canadian Figure Skating / Champions Other changes in Port Perry session on February 9th and one of the items on the agenda was a letter from the Town's Foreman, Mr. A.
