Nearly Upset
Forest Crew
Cheered on by over 80ft funs
at Thursday’s ‘‘gala hockey
night”, Exeter Mohawks almost
upset Forest Lakesides, top Cy
clone club.
The visitors edged the tribe
8-7 but not before Mohawks came
from behind twice, first to tie
the score and then to come with

leaders before the final hell.

Horner and Red Graham, Lake
side defenders, were in the sin
bin when the Mohawks went on
the scoring spree.
Forest rolled back into a com
fortable lead before the period
was over however. They scored
three counters to lead 7-4 at the
start of the third.
Best In Third
Molnvaks outplayed the
ners by a 3-1 count in the

the tables on the favorites
it gave, the crowd plenty to
about.
Workhorses Doug Smith
Ray Richards led the locals' at
tack with three points each.
Smith potted a couple of count
ers and assisted on another.
Richards fired one and set up
two more. Frank Anderson fired
two tallies. Fred Hewer notched
a goal and an assist, and Al Mc
Gillivray helped on two others.
John Anderson, with a
and Murray Brintnell,
assist, also figured in
hawks’ scoring.
Hap Rendall and Art
each collected a trio of

Graham notched singles,
Three Misconducts
Referees Gus Boussey and An
gus McLean, of Seaforth, called
16 penalties, including three 10-
minute misconducts, over the
route. Ross Horner, who was in
an insulting mood, took two of
the heavy penalties while Frank
Anderson received the third,
Forest playing-coach Red Gra
ham, who appears to enjoy a vil-

ties. Three counters were scored
while he was cooling his heels.
In one of the most crushing
body checks seen in this season’s
Cyclone hockey, Grajiam caught
Frank Anderson dead-on as the
speedy centre rounded two othex-
Lakeside men. Anderson lay
■prone on the ice for several min

sistance.

Exeter Mohawks withdrew
from the second WOAA “A”
round robin last week in protest
against the inclusion of Meaford
in the Cyclone playdowng.
Mohawk club president, W. G.
Cochrane, charged that the series,
already under way, “means ab
solutely nothing” and is “fttrictly
an .exhibition round” because
Meaford is not an "A” club.
The local tribe finished in third
place in the first round robin and
was entitled to enter the .second
series. ‘Officials withdrew the
club at a meeting in Goderich on
Friday night. . •
President Cochrane said his
executive felt “it was unreason
able that Meaford should be
brought in before the final Cy
clone “A” playoffs vzere finish
ed”. He .charged that this was
done by the WOAA purely to
accomodate Meaford.
The second round robin “means
absolutely nothing, Cochrane as
serted, because Meaford is an
Intermediate “B” club and will
go into OHA “B” playdowns. The
elimination round is “strictly an
exhibition series”, he said, be
cause the “A” teams will still
have to pick a winner.
Two other reasons stated for
the withdrawal were financial
and lateness of the season.
Mr. Cochrane said the 125-
mile trip to Meaford would re
quire players to be away from
work the afternoon before the
game and since they would not
get home until around 4 a.m.
the next morning, another half
day would be sacrificed. The trip
would be an excessive financial
burden both on the team and
the players and since the series
appeared to be only “exhibition”,
the Mohawk executive felt it not
worthwhile.
Commenting on the time ele
ment, Mr. Cochrane said: “We
feel the series would run the
playoffs much too late in the
season. The round will not be
over until the middle of March
and then’ there are the semi
final and the final series which
will go well into April.”
Another consideration
move is the loss of three
from the club’s roster. _____
Gerry Hill has been transferred
from the district, Bob Coates is
out with a broken thumb and
Ted Elder has been out for seve
ral months with a broken back.
The club has had a successful
year financially, Mr. Cochrane
said. There will be a slight sur
plus on the year’s operation.
The executive will meet at the
close of the season to make
plans for the 1954-'55 season. A
coach may be hired this spring.
The executive -also hopes
hold an open meeting with
Booster Club members at
end of the season.
Although the club has with
drawn from the “A” playdowns
it will participate in Cyclone
playoffs if they are arranged. Al
McGillivray has been named play
ing-coach for the rest of the
season.

Happy to say we had a very
busy week at the arena, starting
with the Zurich and Lucan game
on Tuesday that drew a record
attendance for the year—1,400.
No doubt tomorrow night's game
with the same two clubs will
draw 2.'000.
This has been one of the best
series this year. All of the games
have been close and some very
good hockey has been witnessed
by the ardent fans. Each team
has scored 27 goals.
Thursday was a rough night
and I think we should have at
least tied Forest. Mr. Carr was
the lucky man who won the car
and along with

night. They dropped a 7-3 deci
sion in lacklustre fashion to the
Rockets.
Entirely off their stride and
apparently lacking any incentive,
the double blqeB let the older
Strathroy club outfight, outplay
and outscore them.
Score First Counter
Although the tribe scored the
first counter of the game, a
Richards-Frank Anderson com
bination at 39 seconds after the
opening whistle, they were never
in contention for the game. The
Rockets took a 2-1 lead before
the first was over, extended their
margin to 6-2 in the second. In
the third, the clubs battled to a
1-1 tic.
Frank Anderson and Bill Mus
ser counted the last two Mohawk
goals. Frank's second period
counter was scored from a lying-
down position. He had carried
the puck into the zone, was
dumped, slid across the ice to
one side of Rocket netminder,
Harvey Jessiman, and made no
immediate attempt to get up.
Meanwhile Bill Musser fought
for the rubber and managed to
push it towards the net. Ander
son, still prone, reached out with
his stick to Reflect it under the
surprised Jessiman,
Doug Brintnell received a well-
earned assist on Musser’s count
er. Brintnell scrambled for the. puck with two Rockets in the I
corner, finally cleared it to
Musser in front of

Deserved Win
Despite some of
ing plays of the locals, the Strath
roy crew worked hard enough to
deserve the easy win. Stew Cous
ins potted two, Garvin, Statham,
Dodds, Mayes and Walker count
ed singles for the victors.
Only other major incident in
in the game was a two-minute
scuffle between Bill Musser and
Don Fulton. Iloth received five-
minute majors and 10 - minute
misconducts for the duel.
