A THE CITTLLTWACK PROGRESS, Nov. fi, 13 ZtVy iT GOAL MOUTH CAUCUS discusses condition of Fraser Vale Chiefs' goalie Cary Weiss in game against New Westminster. Netminder is surrounded by (9) Dennis Jodoin, Dave Ovington, Ken Green, Jack Nelson, trainer John Bolko, John Cooke (10) and Royals Gary McLean (14) and (9) Frank Ketter. Weiss was only winded. Royals Outmuscie Chiefs The Annual Remembrance Day Service will be held on November 11th in the Chilliwack Agricultural Hall at 10:00 a.m.

This service will be followed by the Pilgrimage to the Cenotaph arriving- 'there for the Armistice hour of 11:00 o'clock a.m. Those 23 goals-against for Chilliwack hockey juniors' first two games in category would seem like anything but fair treatment for men like Vic Padgham who guide Chiefs' fortunes this winter. A businessman and father, Victor refuses to wilt though a growing line of the game's followers fail to see anything encouraging about the club. "Even the "Missus' has asked me about the team and why some of the better players are hampered by an almost unbelievably slow start," Padgham said. The team president admitted he only wished he could say.

Vic has backboned an executive that has put a lot of hours, effort and money into entering this city in faster ice company. Chiefs were popular with home crowds last winter when they won all the provincial honors in Junior firing. It was reasonable to assume fans would go even more for top juniors. And while management wasn't worried because the club fell down miserably in opening games, there was concern tor certain aspects of Chiefs' operation. Said Padgham: "Coach Orv Litchfield made it clear after the team's sec-end loss what would happen were unsportsmanlike actions like breaking sticks on the ice to continue." I What would happen is that those responsible would be sent packing.

Chilliwack's entry in the Pacific Coast League sinks or swims on the number of people it can entice to the Coliseum. Management knows that. They won't attract customers with athletes acting like children. And interest will soon wane by failure to at least come up with an honest to goodness challenger. Four hundred voices last week equalled in volume that of double this number for a Kamloops home game, testimony that fans here can and do express themselves in support of enterprise just so long as it is deserving of same.

But why spend dollars watching temper tantrums or exhibitionism? Or hockeyists holding back or perhaps worse still, quitting? Chiefs in the main stand above suspicion they are not playing the game. There are 14-year-olds giving their best who Bob Fenton brought his mus Please Join Us! cle men to town last week. but returned to play. Chiefs stooped to silly actions like breaking their sticks on the ice in displeasure. Excessive volume on the part of the PA system also drew criticism.

"Raffles," the steer, was won by last year Chief captain Chester Coach, manager and whip for New Westminster Royals, he over-saw Pacific Coast Junior Hockey League action that sent his team home winner over Chilliwack 9-2. For two periods it was close. The rough and ready Royals led 2-1 after one period on goals by captain Leroy Mow- On the evening of November 8th and all day on November 9th, the Women's Auxiliary to The Royal Canadian Legion and Members of The Air Cadet Squadron No. 147 will be seen on the streets of our community offering our humble Poppy Symbol of Remembrance for your contribution.

Cary Weiss was superb in losers' goal, thwarting 18 drives in the first period alone. He was shot on 46 times to Barry Brown's 23. Royals stuck to playing the game the final period. Content with one penalty to Chilli-wack's pair, they blasted seven pucks past Weiss to win in a romp. Total shots for the period was 20.

John Lee and Gary Kulcheski each had two goals. Dennis Oakland and Paul Shmyr figured in the scoring. About 400 fans voiced strong disapproval of the tactics and antics of both clubs. Royals' Oakland sent Gary Shaw headlong into the boards in the second period with a check from behind. Shaw was knocked out ery and John Shmyr.

But there is benching called for too with others who, whatever the reason, are not clicking.

Herb Varnes of the army had four new faces he was to unfold for the team and it could be simply by elimination the Redshirts will find themselves before long. Getting back to Padgham and the rest of the executive, their main job is to see things roll gracefully and sensibly pro-motionwise. Stopping play to raffle off a prize is unheard of and should never have been pulled off last week. Fans were Golf College Returning Proof of the high regard held by professionals for Meadowlands Golf Club is evidenced in the decision to repeat staging the golf college next summer at Dune and comfort Light your way to i Kay Sutherland layout.

Meadowlands will be busier than ever in 1964.

Besides the junior college, the Chilliwack city championship, Fraser Valley ladies and men's tournaments will be staced. there to see action not gimmicks. Coliseum should be asked to refrain from blaring its recorded music between periods. Though low organ music would be acceptable, preferable would be a break from the noise in order to relax and talk over what has transpired. Chiefs are in a position to do a lot for this city.

Conversely they can bring ridicule. Sending out ill equipped players to do battle makes little sense. If our minor program can't supply players, imports are necessary. As caliber, Chiefs' activities and actions will be ballyhooed throughout B.C. via the mediums.

Whether Chilliwack is big time or not, they are entered in a league boasting fine talent and should conduct themselves the best way they know how. Padgham has made inroads. The Coliseum promises to honor ice time agreements, something that took a little convincing. Fans have shown they will turn out. Barring a repetition of childish antics by players and anticipating a share of victories it might be hoped fan numbers will increase.

The juniors' biggest battle is erasing an idea fans here still have about hockey. Past years have disgusted and driven people away from what was supposed to be sports entertainment. With renewed and better directed efforts perhaps Chiefs can re-sell Canada's national game. NEXT WEEK it will be every man for himself in Ag Hall wrestling. Among nine men set for over-the-rope warring are Kinji Shi-buya (above) and popular Whipper Bill Watson.
