RECREATION BRIEFS - by Buck Now that the Winter has set in on us, people in Terrace Bay have chosen their various recreation activities for the season. From the amount of ac- tivities and leisure-time entertainment provided in the community, there is very little reason for an yone to say there is nothing to do during their leisure hours. | will comment on sev- eral activities and coming events: Minor Hockey - Registrations for the teams are as follows - Atoms - 23 Flyweights - 14 PeeWees - 49 Bantams - 17 Midgets -7 The amount of registrations has dropped sharply in comparison to other years. Last year's registration was around the 160 mark. One reason for the large fall-out is the number of families that have left Terrace Bay. At a recent hockey meeting it was estimated that 55 boys who played THE NEWS WHYNOT Qe DOITTHE ACR OLD FASHIONED WA GET QUALITY AND VALUE S-T-R-E-T-C-H WATCH FOR YOUR FLYER SANTA SALE 3 DAYS - THURS.FRi.

The Bantams are operating as an All-star team, as they did not have enough boys for a house league. The Midget category which was once the central league in minor hockey, is now defunct. The regis tration was not enough to ice a hockey team. Several of our Midget hockey players have moved up and are playing _ Junior hockey. Minor hockey is at a very low ebb in Terrace Bay and needs a shot in the arm. The Minor Hockey Association is at present without a president, and it is quite likely that Mr.Joe Adamo will fill this position. He certainly is capable of getting Minor Hockey back on its feet, with all his previous administrative hockey experience. The Minor Hockey Executive reports a lack of coaches and officials and committee members to carry Minor Hockey. There must be parents who are willing to give up a small portion of their time to promoting Minor Hock ey. Many parents are more concerned with their own recreation rather than that of their children. A bouquet to Mrs.Alma MacDon- ald for her fine efforts in organizing the annual Minor Hockey Peanut Sale From all reports, it is expected to be a success.
