SIDEWALK TALK --~ (Continued from Page 1): _ The first surprise is the .way the stream, hardly more than a jump across, curls crazily. It sweeps wide through the fields south of Metcalfe, doubling back and threatening to. criss-cross itself. Forget about it straightening out, it won't: Time to check out the surroundings. The low-lying riverbanks are desolate, scattered with the debris of centuries of winters -- logs, branches, stones. Relief is provided by majestic elms here and there. An owl which nests along the riverbank has: been known to follow canoeists for at least a mile downstream, flying lazily from tree to tree as if to ensure the intruders leave his territory. A weather-beaten grain thresher --.a relic of bygone days -- slumps at an awkward angle on a rise. The river, which has been drifting imperceptibly, begins to accelerate as it dips into a grove of maple. The babble of rushing water is heard ahead and, a few seconds later, the first: off many choppy cascades comes into view. : "As the current stumbles over itself, the-canoe racks drunken- ly. 3 Wham! -- the first of many jolts. As suddenly as it was breasted, the ride is over, the babbling subsides. Only the swirl of the blade cutting the surface breaks the silence. The river widens to a stone's throw between lines of dense evergreens. Breathtaking! Wide and flat, it barely resembles the zigzagging stream that flows beneath the bridge in Russell. It's as if the traveller crossed some. time warp into a wildly beautiful setting. Here, mud turtles still groggy from hibernation flop. from rocks and logs. A pair of mallards churn «into flight. AA muskrat splashes under a muddy over- hang. Then, seeming to tire too soon of its new-found beauty, the river funnels between steep banks. Canoeists crouch. under. 'a- wire -- Cattle creeping before seasoned barrier under a. "stone bridge, home toa score: of cooeing "distance, a Russell Review its' abutments pidgeons. Again the unexpected! The river loses its banks altogether as it dissipates in acres of grass. The paddler must rely on instinct, any one of a dozen false channels in this sea of green appears to be the right one. With patience and a little luck, the river is rejoined. Now into a swampy tangle. Frogs stifle as a branch creaks along the canoe's side. Duck! -- a fallen tree. As the muskeg falls behind, a dog pauses in a clearing to raise its nose in the direction of the strangers. On the left, cud-chewers stare, unblinking. On a hill sits a century-old red-brick house. Later, in what becomes a pretty finale, the canoe coasts into a natural canal, it sides amazingly squared under a canopy of intermingled branches -- more' impressive -- than anything man-made. Minutes later, it's down a rocky slide, a last thump, and into the mainstream. In the steeple signals home. Russell 4-H Club A 4-H Club is for you.

A total of 64 "oldtimers" divided up into 4 teams and participated over 7 months of the fall, winter and spring. It was avery enjoyable year and a huge party ended the season. The highlight of the year was a benefit and fund raising exhibit- ion match against the Russell Raiders. To everyone's surprise, except the "old timers", the Raiders went down to defeat. It just proves hockey players don't get old, they just get better. Ask Gordie Howe. Other worthy accomplish- ments of the year were: raising $212.00 towards a new ice surfacing machine, donation of a vent hood to the arena kitchen and a trophy donated to minior hockey. Looking towards next year, and it is only 4 months away, the league is hoping to adopt a new format, ice time for 2 divisions of oldtimer type hockey. i.e. 'A' division -- consisting of 4 teams of better caliber hockey players, 25 years of age or over. (majority of whom played this year). 'B' Division -- consisting of 4 teams of not necessarily poor caliber hockey players but players who have a desire to play a slower pace game. Registration forms for the 1977-78 season are available from Russell's merchants.
