taking a first period two-^pal

But the unfortunate part of it all
wab that only a handful of citizens
turned out to cheer dui’ boys on.
We know that Thursday night
there were important meetings in
town that kept some of the business
men away but what about the other
citizens?
# *
It isn’t because people of this
district aren’t hockey’■minded. The
arena has been crowded consistent
ly at the airforce games and always
Was when the Cyclone League
operated,
* * ■» *
Naturally enough the big teams
play a faster, superior brand of
hockey but while the Juveniles
make plenty of mistakes they try
hard all the time and the three
games played at the arena this year
have lacked nothing in excitement.
* * * *The Exeter team in the first half
of the schedule has won two games,
lost four and are in third place.
With the exception of the game in
Seaforth they have put u,p a good
showing regkrhles's of whether they
have won or lost. Ail threte home
games have been clpbe scores.
Wd could iiifnt'i^ii sdv^rai faces
that can be seen al every home
game. .And these men* will tell you
that they would as soon see our
boys in action as any of the othdr
games.
-» 4 b -x-
So let’s back our boys in this last
half of the Schedule and give them
all the encouragement we can.
There’s plenty of excitement when
the Juveniles are playing and you’ll
go away with a good quarter’s
worth of entertainment.
-x- * » *
THERE ARE several men in
Exetbi’ Who are ihiakihg an earnest
effort to bring along young puck
chasers to build a Ypture team to
represent our toWiit *TMey are doing
a splendid jbb.
w -x- -x- *
Besides the Juvenile’s the Mid
gets, whose members, are under
sixteen, have been organized. So far
so good. But other neighboring
towns are going still further in
developing hockey material. Teams
rangiiig in age from eight upwards
have been organized.
* « 4
It would be our suggestion that
two teams of Squirts (8-19* years),
Pee-Wees (10-12 years), and Ban
tams (12-14 years) be organized.
This could be done at school by
electing two captains for each
group and teams dhosdn from the
lads desiring to play. Each team
would have its own name.
4 * * *
The boys could play Saturday
morning under the supervision of
some of the Juvenile players, the
.principal of thg Public School who
is keen on hockey and several other
fellows who have spare time Satur
day morning.
* 4 * *
AND TALKING about develop
ing young players we were discuss
ing this topic with Jimmy Forsythe
1' popular member of the 'Centralia
Flyers, who, himself, id a product
of Toronto playgrounds. As Jim
pointed out boys should be started
early and practice continually in
order to develop good material.
4 4 4 *
We have the best arena in this
district and it is a credit to a town
the size of Exeter. The Arena heads
have as their job the organizing of
activity and as a community project
the making of ends meet from a
financial standpoint. It Would seem
wise, then, that they give every
co-operation to aid in this hockey
plan.
It is suggested that the hockey
leaders meet with the Arena Com
mittee and try and work out some
sort of a practice schedule for the
Juveniles and Midgets, especially.
An approximate schedule could be
drawn up a week in advance, minor
Changes being made if necessary.
Bettor organization would be the
result and there would be less
headaches to all concerned.
We can’t help but think that
three nights a "week Would be' ample
for the skaters. There are few
people who are able to skate often-
er than that. With hockey taking
up tWo more nights there still is
one evening remaining in Which the'
Midgets, Juvenile^ and any other
team could haVO a good practice.
4 4 * *
Other practices can be worked iti
between seven and eight on a
couple of tlie sktiting nightp. This
may seem to our readers that i^e
are taking too much the side of
hockey. But it must be considered
that it is hockey that provides the
bulk of the financing for the Arena.
Not only this' but hockey is a splen
did body-builder, lftfeps the ldds in
good physical condition, develops
team play and they are under sup
ervision indulging in clean activity
rather than roaming around the
streets.
4 if- 4 4
This would give the skaters three
nights and Saturday afternoon. The
Public I'SChodl skate iiftfei- fdttr and
possibly the Squirts, Midgets and
Bantanis c.ould play from five to six
the odd afternoon. It would also
provide two nights of hockey, one
night of practice as well as Satur
day morning and before skating.
4 4 4 *
If Exeter is to be represented in
hockey circles some such plan Will
have to be Worked out. It’s not too
late this year and when the Arena
Committee considers that next year
there probably won’t be any Air
force hockey to provide funds they
might well He adVised to give this'
hockey development scheme such
as is going on in other towns every
consideration.
