the tribune stouffville ontario thursday march 9 1939 page seven stouffville and goodwood play to a 11 draw goodwood have finally met a stouffville team that appears every bit their equal it took seventy minutes of gruelling hockey on slushy ice in their last scheduled game in uxbridge arena on friday to make this fact convincing the final score after the evenings fun tallied 11 which still leaves goodwood one notch higher up in the ladder when it comes to choosing playoff posi tions the play was very even and seesawed from one end of the rink to the other with each team counting one goal to sup port their argument with holden and redshaw each doing time in the cooler for roughing herb simpson and art wideman combined to slip in goodwoods counter at the 515 mark it was rather a peculiar goal coming off simp sons stick behind the net to seemingly strike wideman and go in the net the remaining 10 minutes of the period stouff- villes repeated attacks were turned back by goalie paxton and the stout goodwood defense in front the applause from the seven hundred fans present seemed unlimited and they had hardly settled down for the second period when from the faceoff laurie and austin cut loose laurie displayed amazing speed in getting down around the goodwood defense and giving austin the pass to score on help less and unprotected paxton after just ten seconds of play laurie fairly flew down the ice it was a diamondstudded effort and richly deserving of the acclaim of the many stouff ville fans there were three penalties in this midsession two to stouffville and one to goodwood but no damage was done but it took seventy minutes of die offensive in the last period and the overtime but despite numerous close calls for both sides neither was able to chalk up a winning goal the ice was in very bad shape and was probably accountable for the score being what it was forster in the stouffville nets gave his usual spectacular performance after the redshirts got their goal reesor for goodwood and mor- den for stouffville were tops defensively and both took their turns carrying the puck out the main offensive lines were about on a par in this contest with their checking and offen sive antics due to the slow ice laurie austin and simpson lacked a little of the old pepper usually displayed by these ace forwards but from a stouffville point of view the austin laurie holden line provided probably the biggest scoring threat of the evening laurie and simpson had the most chances in front of the nets but they found goalies forster and paxton al ways equal to the occasion glasgow welcomes mr groundhog early last week mr roy smith of glasgow spied a groundhog sitting in the sun right on top of the hill against the sideroad on mr jim tin- dalls farm on the second con cession of uxbridge just north of glasgow it is believed to be the first groundhog seen in the township this year roy was so interested in see ing the furry little chap that he made further investigation and found that the harbinger of spring had dug himself out through a foot and a half of snow which was melting fast around the mouth of the groundhog hole from the heat inside

unfer tile acres in the rural areas of york county presumably vivi an and ballantrae districts to cut down increasing relief rolls and provide wages for work insttad of direlt relief was ad vocated by york county officials such a project county officials contended would be far more beneficial to suburban and rural municipalities in the county than the erection of public buildings new buildings will only give work to a few men but a tree- planting program will put thousands to work declared members of the county agri cultural committee we need projects that will materially cut our relief rolls something to help our unemployed youths as well as craftsmen york county reforestation committee headed by james rennie has appeared before the provincial authorities on numer ous occasions with a view to having their northern sandy lands converted into forests unless a project of magnitude is instituted now the committee feels the whole land will be barren of timber in a few years not only will a reforestation plan give work to thousands of men but it will build them up physically and prepare them for farming it is maintained it would seem that february was trying to show off this year he has within his length of days no such thing as christmas or new year nor has he any stat utory holiday so it is necessary for him to behave in such a way that people will have cause to remember his

grandmothers false teeth and attempted to pawn them in toronto has a rival up in the bruce capital on the suggestion that the rural nag had kicked- its shoes off going 1o town the farmer violently denied such possibil ity the owner declared the shoes were in place all right when dobbin was tied in the shed as he went to transact business no the miscreant who pulled the job had the tools for the occasion and removed the shoes with the skill of an artist who knew his stuff what motive lay behind this petty larceny other than gain may never be ferret ed out by the police but the fact is the want of the shoes nearly cost the horse its life as it slipp ed and fell innumerable times on its way home each time getting such a sock on the jaw by contacting the road with its head that almost every tooth in its mouth was loosened by the jar since the occurrence it is off feed and will continue to so pass up its rations through the agony of mastication that by spring it will be too thin even for crowbait and hence will be useless either for the road the farm or the track it being a former speedster with a record and as its owner has to drive seven miles each way per day in the pursuit of his calling the handicap occasioned by the wan ing and wasting away of his charger will set him back plenty in a monetary sense incompat ible with the small gain that the culprit will attain through the theft of the shoes with a 28 set of harness on the horse and an 18 buffalo robe in the cutter not to men tion a 5 set of bells on the out fit and all of which were left intact why the thief should have focused his attention on the shoes and bereft the pacer of its front footwear is a mat ter for the sleuths to discern and discover a possible motive while a horseshoe over a mans door is the symbol of luck yet if the cops find the missing met al over the portals of any sus pect the tide in his sea of for tune as shakespeare would say will be on the ebb or words to that effect
