The big event is the Sr. La- crosse game. between the St. Catharines Athletics and the Brooklin Lacrosse Club, The game is the fifth game of @ best-of-seven series that is ail tied up tighter than a drum at two games each. This stamps this one as a must for both clubs. There has been a definite trend in the games thus far. The first two contests were wide open affairs with high scoring. Brooklin won the opener at the local rink 12-5 and then dropped the second encounter 12-5 at the Bow! in St. Kitts. The third me was a real squeaker with the locals coming from behind to force an overtime session, to take the tilt 6-5. Then on Wed- nesday night the St. Kitts team electrified their home town fans with a fine third period rally by Ron Roy as they edged the pride of Ontario County 3-7. We chatted with William G. Vipond, the president and assis- tant coach of the Brooklin team on Thursday night in regard to the game on Wednesday. He said: "We should have won it, but we missed four or tive good scoring chances'. He also fig- ures that Brooklin are still in the driver's seat providing they stay away from the "cheap pen- alties". Brooklin saw four goals scored against them on Wednes- day night while they were short- handed. Mr. Vipond also informed us that Lorne Campbell suffered a broken nose in the game when high sticked by Gary Hinds. Brooklin 'were also short Doug Vipond and Chas. Ludlow for the game on Wednesday night. It was also brought to our at- tention that the winning goal scored by Ron Roy left a lot to be desired so far as being legal is concerned. It is reported that Roy was inside the goal crease when he scored the goal. Danny Peterson, one of the referees, is also of the same opinion but he St Kitts was making calls at the other end of the rink, Brooklin appeared to be head- ed for a sure win in the first period as they built up what ap- peared as a rather good lead at 4-1. However the pesky St. Kitts team, realizing that this was a must game for them, kept com- ing back, They had Doug Smith back in the lineup for this game and he is a smart cookie. He goaded a couple of the local players into cheap penalties along the line. But fans, tonight is another game. It is right here in the con- fines of the Brooklin arena where many an Ontario Cham- pionship has been won. Let's get out in full strength for this one. It is a must game for Brooklin. A loss for the local side could prove the undoing 9f what many men have worked untold hours) to put together. And while we are talking of men working and helping out. There are always the men be- hind the scene who help out either on the executive or in sponsoring the team. This year, as last, the Brooklin team have been sponsored by 11 sports- minded men or companies. They include men from Whitby, Brooklin and Oshawa. 'The list of sponsors is as follows: Bram- ley Motors, Gus Brown Motors, Northside Chrysler, Guy Steven- son, Gordon Cook, Bob Heron, Mitchell Brothers, Ottenbrite Men's Wear, Royal Hotel, Luth- er Vipond and the Spruce Villa Hotel, The help these men have given the local team is very much appreciated.

A five-man Coroner's iy! in quiring into the death of Gary came to his death by drowning in a swimming hole they labled it recom- mendations to try and prevent a reoceyrance of the tragedy which claimed the small boys life. Gary Robert Bruce Guna, late of 266 Centennial road Scarboro, met his death July 19, in the Rouge river at a point were the water was eight feet deep. Robert Bruce Gunn, 31, the boy's father told the inquest that on the day of the death he, in company with his family and a family of friends, went for a picnic and a swim in Graham's Park on Highway 2. He said that one of the child- ren had out her foot and the family returned home to get medical attention for the wound, After the foot was treated the group returned to the park and had a swim before eating at approximatly 7,45 p.m. he + |stated. He said: that while they were eating Gary was not' present '| but no one was upset about the ' |boy's absence because he was la "loner." "One minute he was here, | |and the next there. One night line got on his bike and rode to a friends house ten miles away without telling us" the father continued, He said that Gary had been to the park five or six times and that the boy was not a good swimmer but could only "dog- paddle." The river at the point where the boy drowned was eight feet deep but there was a shallow section further upstream added. He said that the last time he saw his son he was playing catch and that he did not see him in the water that day. Constable John Found, Pick- ering Township Police, said that he arrived at the park about 11 p.m, and that 10 minutes later the fire department began dragging the river. He said that two swimmers had told the fire department 'OH, BLAST'-ADMIRAL Monty Webfoot, the trans- planted Britisher who has been one of Whitby's top marathon swimmers over the last few years, failed yesterday in his attempts to swim Lake Ontario from Whitby to Ogdensburg, New York, "This ruddy water is too rud- dy cold," he informed the shivering throng which gathered along the municipal beach to see him safely on his way.

"Geez," he commente. A screaming throng of one adult (photographer Brian Me- Call), two children, and one brownish dog watched him wade courageously into the swirling wayes. "Blast that flabbernak," he laughed, stubbing his toe on a sharp stone. He took a few more paces then turned and smiled broadly: "To hell with this," he grinned, stepping back to the shore. The mobs, heads lowered with disappointment, walked deject- edly back to their car and bi- cycle. The dog stayed loyally beside Monty.
