s Baler Icemen Win FYC Winter -Over Hicksville 6-5 Program Set t; fnvnr r>f thr arppn O &5 s 3 0) •-^ CO £ CO CD by Kathy Theal This pst Sunday the fans were treated to a wide-open ice hockey game in which defense was not \the name of the game\ as Farmingdale defeated Hicksville, 6-5. Hicksville jumped to an early 2- 0 lead but Farmingdale narrowed the margin to 2-1 on a pretty wrap-around goal by Mike Fallon and the period ended that way. In the second period Mike Hendrickson tallied on a rink- length dash to tie the score and Farmingdale took a 3 - 2 lead on Mike Fallon's power play goal from the high slot. With but one second left in the period Hicksville scored and the teams went into the third period tied, 3-3. Both teams traded goals during the period; Mark Everett on a nice pass from Mike Hen- drickson, Alan Barth on a penalty shot, and finally Scott Everett on a rebound off a scramble in front of the net for the winner. With a little over three minutes to go Farmingdale settled down on defense and held Hicksville at bay with the final reading 6-5 in Gymnastic Club istration Set Regi Registration for the Far- mingdale Youth Council Gym- nastic Club is scheduled for Thursday, November 3, from 3 to 5 p.m. at the Woodward Parkway School. Sessions at present are planned for beginners on Mon- days from 2:30 to 4 p.m. and for intermediates on Thursdays from 3 to 6 p.m. Advanced gymnasts may come on both Mondays and Thursdays; on Mondays from 2:30 to 5:30 and on Thursdays from 3 to 6 p.m. Last year's season was a very successful one. It was climaxed by a skill competition for the beginning gymnast and exhibition by the intermediate and advanced gymnasts. A show is already being planned for early April 1978. Due to the very large enrollment and the long season last year, additional teachers and aides were needed. This caused the club to far exceed its budget. Because of the limited funds, a fee of five dollars will be charged this year. Since every child, even the beginners, will be entitled to attend at least twenty sessions and some will be at many more, this is a great bargain so come down and join up. Registration is open to all children in the Far- mingdale School District, kin- dergarten through twelfth grade. Mrs. Rosemary Gomez and Mrs. Grace Nicilaisen are again in charge. Remember registration is on Thursday, November 3 from 3 to 5 p.m. at Woodward Parkway Elementary School. favor of the green. Coaches Dan Everett and Paul Markison were heard to say: \It certainly wasn't a classic game, but it's always good to win when you don't play well.\ ICE CHIPS The Farmingdale Hockey Club (this year consisting of 22 Far- mingdale High School students) asks for and receives no assistance of any kind from the school. Each boy pays a registration fee of $90. and pays for ice during pre-season tryouts. In addition, they are required to supply their own equipment and uniforms. The average cost per player is over $300. Coaches, team manager and team treasurer are unpaid volunteers. The team plays in the Islander High School League and the Oyster Bay High School League. Islander League plays every Sunday through March at Racquet & Rink, Farmingdale; Oyster Bay League plays Mon- days through Thursdays at the out-door rinks in Bethpage and Massapequa. « As you can see, hockey is a most expensive sport.

John Plock, Jr. today reminded Nassau homeowners and business proprietors that placing of leaves, tree branches and other debris in County roads is forbidden by law. \There is a certain amount of confusion because some villages allow residents to take leaves and branches into the road for village forces to pick up,\ Plock said. \But this rule applies only to village roads not County roads.\ \If you don't know whether or not your street is a County road, call 938-8110 and our Road Maintenance people will advise you,\ he added. Plock also urged people not to stuff leaves or branches down drains because if followed by rain, flooding can occur since the runoff has no place to go. \Bagging leaves and bundling branches for pickup by local sanitation departments is the best disposal method,\ Plock said.
