"Scugog"s Community Newspaper of Choice" PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, November 7, 2000 - 21 MoJacks to look for revenge Friday when they visit the Ice From Page 20 vaunted power play for a couple of quick markers inside two minutes to erase the 1-0 MoJack lead and take a 2-1 lead of their own which they never surrendered. Jeremy Filby and Ice veteran sniper Trevor Sedore did the early damage that set the table for the six-goal scoring bar- rage in the second period. The MoJacks did manage to respond with two of their own through the second period as Todd Burroughs and Matt MacMaster got the puck behind Ice net- minder Ryan Baker, but the visitors owned a commanding 6-3 lead after 40 minutes. And they put the dagger through the heart of the MoJacks early in the third with a short-handed marker in the open- ing minute by Sedore - -a guy who knows what to do with any scoring opportunity. That one pretty well shut off any hope the MoJacks might have had to stage a come-back in the third period and the Ice went on to add two more for a 9-3 final score and a long night for the home town team. Through 13 games in the 40 game schedule, the Mojacks find themselves four points under .500 as they have col- lected nine points with four wins and a tie. Three of those victories have been over the Bullets and the other came against Little Britain -- an 8-7 win in overtime. They are in fifth place in the six-team league and just the top four clubs will qualify for the post season playoffs. Certainly a positive factor for the green and white despite the slow start to the season is that the large number of rookies will continue to improve with each outing as they gain experience at the Junior C level. The MojJacks have just five players on the roster with Junior C experience from previous seasons. The team has a tough test ahead of them this coming weekend as they jour- ney to Sutton on Friday night to take on the Ice and will host the Uxbridge Bruins at the Scugog Arena this Sunday evening (Nov. 12) with the face off set for 7 p.m. The Little Britain Merchants could be a team to watch as they blanked the Lakefield Chiefs last Tuesday night by a 4-0 score and have apparently added several players to bolster their roster. The MoJacks have one of those crucial "back to back" weekends with the Merchants Nov. 18 and 19. Hockey fans in the area might want to note November 19 on their calendars and make the trip to the Scugog Arena (7 p.m. faceoff) to see the MoJacks and Merchants do battle. It is always hard- nosed and entertaining hockey when these two rivals meet. From Page 20 Jamie Menzies replied for Compton. Pineridge Sports 3 B. Smith Carpentry 5 B.

Historical Society gave a grand tour of Uxbridge last Sunday By Albert Putsey Caesarea News Lake Scugog Historical Society A group of us had a wonderful tour Sunday afternoon in Uxbridge. We met in the railroad station and started out from there. Our first stop was Foster's Memorial and what a beautiful building it is. Thomas Foster was a former mayor of Toronto. Although starting off as a farmer he made his millions in real estate. From this point we went on to St. Paul's Presbyterian Church and Manse where the Rev. Ewan McDonald preachedat one time, he was the husband of the famous Lucy Maud Montgomery of Ann of Green Gables. From this point we drove west on Leaskdale sideroad past the old school house site where Maud's children went and also past the swimming pond they used. Near the 6th Concession was Rainbow Valley where we turned south to the Uxbridge Scott Museum. | made a list of all the building in the museum grounds, but being hounded by women to hurry | dropped my small pad and lost my notes. There was the Scott Township old munic- ipal office, a printing shop, a school house and a United Church used in 1901 and the United Church was not founded until 1925. Or did this church truly hold that label in 1901? From this point we continued south to see the Quaker Meeting Hall. Then on to the center of Uxbridge where we saw the Music Hall, then on to the library and back to the railroad station. By the way, they have some more old coaches they will be restoring in the com- ing year. At the station we had a short lecture by Susan Para, Regional Councillor for that area. lan Woods spoke on restoration, the good, the bad, and the ugly. It was an afternoon of good informative talks and site visits well spent. In an anti room they showed pictures of buildings of distinction which had been torn down. There will be a director's meeting this Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in the school house at our Island Museum. Remembrance Day Here in town we have the sign changed and the flags installed again for this Remembrance Week. Try to attend a memorial service in your area. Stan Binns We here in the village are saddened in the passing of Stan Binns. In anything | ran | had Stan encouraging me verbally and financially in my efforts. We extend our sincere condolences to his wife Fran and members of the families. Blackstock Lions Last Wednesday we had our new prin- cipal Karen Allan of Cartwright High give a talk to us. She spoke on the new curricu- lum, on the need in our school of newer, updated computers, and on the 40 hours each student is expected to spend on community services. This | hope should encourage youth after leaving school to take an active part in their community. Saturday afternoon Bruce Colwell and | attended the Lions' funeral service of Bill James of the Stouffville Lions Club. There will be a board meeting at Bruce Colwell's this Wednesday, Nov. 8 at 7:30 p.m. Saying of the Week A generation ago most people who fin- ished a days work needed rest, now they need exercise.
