the improving airmen have been
providing some tough competi

some victories before the end of

Making a last ditch stand with
two men short, Exeter Mohawks
survived a desperate rally by St.
Marys Alerts in the dying min
utes of Friday night’s game to
win their third straight contest
5-4.
The locals appeared to have
the game in the bag with a 5-3
lead in the third period when
two of the tribe were sent to
the sin bin for tripping with
about two minutes to
Alerts rallied for one
18.18 but failed to knot
counter before the bell
With their two reshuffled for
ward lines showing a big im
provement, Mohawks held an
edge on the Alerts all the way.
They led 2-1 in the first
4-2 in the second.
Ray Richards, Gerry Hill and
Frank Anderson starred in
scoring department for the win
ners. Richards, who has caught
fire since joining the first line,
potted two goals and assisted on
produced two counters in his
second appearance in blues.
Frankie, playing an outstand
ing, aggressive game, fired one
tally and collected two assists.
Backhands Opener
The flashy Anderson opened
the scoring at 1.40 of the first
when he wound up from his own
end, passed to Richards who re
turned the pill in time for Frank
to backhand a high one into the
twine.
Boyd tied the count when he
fired one chest high that rico
cheted into the net off Turner’s
body.
Richards put the tribe up again
by sinking Bob Coates’ rebound
at 16.05. Frank Anderson set up
the play when he passed from
the corner to Coates on the point.
Richards Gets Second
Early in the second, Richards
sunk another rebound, this time
one of Anderson’s drives. A min
ute later Hill scored his first

and
the
set him up in the open. Actually,
Hill had scored seconds earlier
but the goal was discounted be
cause Musser was in the crease.
The Alerts came to life near
the end of the stanza when Noble
scored the first of his three on
a shot from the corner.
Gerry Hill potted his second
goal halfway through the third
When Doak shot him a pass at
•centre from behind the blueline.
Hill tried in vain to shake the
lone defender but shot a riser
that bounced off Mossip’s pads.
Noble made it 5-3 a minute later
when lie capitalized on a scramble
in front of the net.
The St. Marys attack was
hindered by two penalties, but
the Mohawks appeared too tired
to take advantage of the edge.
Then the locals found themselves
in real trouble when Smith and
Hewer went off for tripping.
Thanks to-the fine defensive play
of Doak and Glen the locals
turned back the Alerts drive
after Noble scored the last goal
of the game.
The Stratford referees, Lang
muir and Schram, had a field day
with their thumbs, handing out
20 penalties, including a 10-min-
ute misconduct to Mohawk Cap
tain Doug Smith.

from newspapers.” Yes, perhaps
—but it’s a wonderful past. Some
sad. Some happy.
For instance, a group picture
of boys and girls being presented
with trophies, and in the centre
of the group, a large trophy —
“The Bonhomme Landriault Cen
tury Club Trophy”
Bonhomme (good man) was a
“natural” in everything he at
tempted in sports. Fourteen years
old, although small in stature,
he had the biggest heart in the
world — but, alas, a weak heart.
He was a member of our box
ing club and was here, there and
everywhere, always waiting to
help others. The night before the
Silver Gloves Tournament, all
’boys were weighed in and given
a medical examination,
was then we found

knew how bad it was.

him to assist me in the
sports programme for the sum
mer months. Bonhomme had a
happy summer and he read every
thing possible on rules, and how
to teach these rules and funda
mentals of games, to boys
girls.
Summer .passed and he
proven himself worthy of
French name “Bonhomme”,
we Were in a quandry what he
would do in the winter. He
wasn’t, lie applied for and got
the job of mascot for our hockey
team. Once again he was the
idol of all the players—polite,
quiet-spoken, knew his job, and
did it wonderfully well,
The tea.m entered the play-offs
and in the final game went into
overtime, Bonhomme Was there,
administering and helping the
players, a constant source of en
couragement. We won the game
—b,ut lost Bonhomme. That eve
ning at liis home he died.
His principle of unselfish giv
ing, because he dedicated his life
to it, will always be an example
to all who came in contact with
him, old and young alike, and
I believe we can all

But Not Forgotten.
Every year, any
who attains 100 points or more

has his name inscribed on the
