Representatives of the
met in Wingham last
night and drew up the
groupings for the hockey
this season.
The district loop comprises
Lucan and Hensail in the “B”
division while Crediton, Granton,
Dashwood, Dublin and Zurich
will be in the "C” division,
.Exeter has been trying to get
into an “A” league but before
the Wingham meeting decided to
remain in the district loop.
However, they have been placed
in a -grouping with Seaforth,
Mitchell, Tavistock, Wellesley,
Poole and St. Clements. In all
probability they will be back
again with their old rivals in
this district.

St. Thomas Orioles played an
exhibition basketball tilt at the
arena Monday night against the
Maroons. We were only able to
take in part of the game but the
smooth combination offensive of
the Orioles leaves no doubt in
one’s mind why they are so
highly rated in junior company.
They are an “A” team, while
Exeter is classed in "B”.
The Maroons, while outscored,
put up a .good show against
their classy rivals and

prizes—one for the high single,
one for high triple, and four
hidden numbers. Rene Francis,
of the Bowling Lanes, has also
donated two turkeys to the
league, and has hidden two
n umbers. The bowler whose
triple is closest to the hidden
number wins a turkey. All
trundlers will have a chance of
winning one of Rene’s turkeys,
while only league members who
have entered the turkey roll will
be able to compete for
the other six turkeys.
