upcoming world hockey championships in vien na austria will give him a chance to salvage what was otherwise a disappointing nhl season with the minnesota north stars the stars who were early favo rites to take the norris division crown had a dismal year they failed to make the playoffs and fired coach lome henning with only two games left in the season in an interview sunday from hamilton where he and a number of other nhlers olympic players and coach dave king are prepar ing for the world championships acton reflected on the past season and team canadas chances in europe while he considers it an honor to be selected for the canadian team he would have preferred to be in the nhl playoffs when youre in the nhl its your job to make the playoffs and its a dissapointment when you dont he said still im glad to be given an opportunity to sal vage something from the year by playing for canada j this will be the first time acton has played international hockey in europe and hes looking for ward to the experience it will be nice to learn how the other half of the world lives and plays the game he explained great offence with nhl playoff action still going on the canadian team is far from complete the elimination of chicago and boston sunday night means more new players will be added to the squad and its hard to rate their chances acton said weve got some great offen sive players here now he said of the group working out at copps coliseum its pretty hard to tell how well do until the final team is set s stouffvilles keith acton of the minnesota north stars will play for canada at the world championships starting this week in austria acton hopes the tourney will let him salvage a dissapointing year with the stars who failed to make the nhl playoffs working with olympic dave king is also a thrill for acton king is a great coach hes stu died the game for a long time as for the north stars they are a team loaded in talent that never seems to reach its potential they were struggling to make the play offs as the season wound down and in a bizzare turn of events coach lome henning was fired with only two games remaining in the season and replaced by for mer coach glen sonmor i its not a real good setup oyer there right now acton said of minnesota one of the most in strumental problems is the insta bility surrounding the coaching position that position is not permanent or stable the firing of henning prompted a lot of criticism of north star management and included public outbursts by team captain craig hartsburg and forward dino cic- carelli against the move acton said the firing didnt see acton b4 stouffville fastball looks good by alan shackleton sports editor the official return of fastball action to stouffville is less than a month away and coach bryan emery is predicting a competi tive team sponsored by betz pools the squad will be made up of a num ber of the players who won the junior provinical fastball title for stouffville back in 1980 ironically that championship team never played together again most of the players were too old for junior ball after the season and there wasnt enough interest for a senior team all that has now changed and stouffville fans can mark wednesday evenings from may to september as fastball nights at memorial park i think weve got the nucleus of a very good team emery said weve got some talented ball players among those players are pitch ers jim chilvers and john annis mark fockler steve schell paul boyton and george burkholder chilvers and annis had been playing fastball in oshawa while some of the other players had been involved with slopitch in town i think there was a desire among a lot of these players to get back into fastball emery said work on forming the team be gan last year
