George Legere and Bob Free look like they are ready to do MoJacks hope to pick up momentum as training camp start The Port Perry MoJacks will start training camp in less than two weeks in pre- paration for the 1982-83 Central Ontario Junior C schedule. MoJacks have sent invit- ations to 60 players and the team will begin a week of dry land training September 13 and then take to the ice at the Scugog Arena on September 21. Team spokesman Murray Parliament says there is a lot of enthusiasm among those connected with the Club as the new season draws near and the hope the team will pick up the momentum generated during last year's playoff series. That series last year against the Lindsay Muskies proved to be highly enter- taining and exciting. And even though the MoJacks lost (in the final second of an overtime period) the team played its best hockey of the entire season. Gary Elliott, who took over the coaching duties midway through the season last year, will be at the helm this year. Assistant Alf Treen will also be with the club again this year, and Gary's younger brother Brian will work as an assistant as well. The MoJacks will play a league schedule of 36 games, and their first regular contest this year will be October 3 in Bowmanville.

Face off is 7:30. Like previous years, MoJacks will play the majority of their home games on Sunday .evenings. The Central Ontario League will be made up of the same teams as last season, but there are two significant rule changes for this coming season. The League has decided to go back to using the centre red line for off-side passes. Last year, the two line pass from blue to red line was done away with in the hopes it would open the play up. League officials were not happy with this rule as it often had the opposite efect. Also, the rule where a 37 in mini-tournament by Jean Skerratt Thirty-seven girls came out Tuesday evening to par- ticipate in our mini-tourna- ment.

The full two minute penalty rule was brought in last season on a trial basis in the hopes it would help cut down on penalities. Studies by the Junior C leagues in 'Ontario showed that there was no decrease in the number of penalties last year. With 60 invitations sent out to players, Mr. Parliament said the Club has received commitments from many of last year's team who are still eligible for Junior C play. "There seems to be a lot of interest from the players for this coming season,' he said. On the executive side, team president is Charlie Bourgeois; Walt Sandison and Carl Luke will handle the day to day general manager's duties; and Murray Parliament is team contact to the league and the Ontario Hockey Association.

Central Seven provides services for the mentally retarded in Scugog, Brock and Uxbridge Townships. The Association operates a workshop in Port Perry and a residence on Scugog Island. Officials with Central Seven were delighted with the turn-out for this benefit game, and they had some nice words of praise for Pierre Leduc who organized the match. A the game itself, $68 was raised by a silver collection, another $42 from a 50-50 draw, the players from both teams chipped in $50, and $39 from refreshments. Pierre and Jason Cooper turned over a further $151 which they raised by a door- to-door canvass. As for the action on the field, the Oldtimers hung on in the final inning to nip Sportsland 6-5 and both teams provided hitting and good plays in the field. Butch Latta, president of the Central Seven executive threw out a ceremonial first pitch at the start of the game. This is the second fund- raising event Pierre Leduc has organized for Central Seven. Last winter, he arranged a benefit hockey game.
