Ainherstburg' Hero Saturday
As has been mentioned in this
column before Saturday night
will see the Exeter Maroons in
action against Amherstburg in
their first round of the Ontario
Basketball semi-finals.
The Maroons have run up an
enviable record in junior basket
ball circles this season and in
exhibition tilts both- here and on
visiting' floors. Coach Gord Far
row has been priming- the Mar
oons for the forthcoming- home-
and-ljome, goals-to-count series
and Saturday night will see the
first game on the local gym,
Brampton and Collingwood are
playing off in the northern
group while Napanee and Lake
shore are playing in the eastern
section, The two winners will
playoff and the victor will play
■the winner of the Exeter-Am-
lierstburg series.
The local juniors have staged
the best basketball that Exeter
has ever displayed. If you want
to get in on a real sports treat
make it a date for Saturday
night. You’ll take in plenty of
basketball action if you do.
Centralia In Semi-Finals
As this is written the Cen
tralia Flyers are preparing for
their semi-final round with the
Goderich sextet for the group
OHA “A” title. Goderich elimin
ated Clinton Radar in the third
and deciding .game last Friday
night and now battle it out with
Centralia.
'Lucan Knocked Off
The Lucan Irish smacked bang
into Wellesley in their first
jump out of the group play
downs and were knocked off in
two straight. It’s a tough break
to meet such a powerhouse in
the first round especially since
the final game was the first
match played in the new Lucan
Arena this season. But such is
the fortunes of sport,
Workmen worked right up to
the last minute to have the new
Arena ready. We were talking to
Harvey Langford, boss of the
Lucan Irish, on the morning of
■the game and even then he
wasn’t sure whether they’d be
ready ’to go.
Zurich Advances
Minus their capable goalie and
the services of their veteran de
fenceman, Hal Stade, the Zurich
sextet came back to win the
fifth game by a handy 8-3 score
over the Dashwood lads in Zur
ich last Friday night. They now
have captured the C title and
advance into the next round of
the W.O.A.A. playdowns.
To Stage Boxing
Centralia RCAF is staging the
first boxing- bout in this neck
of the woods in some time on
Thursday night. And from the
appearance of the card it looks
like a good night’s entertain
ment for district fans. In the
main bout those two London
lads Billy Tremblett and Curly
Moulton, who put on a real go
in London last week will resume
their feud . Lac Paquette will
square off with Cpl. Eddie Senos
of Aylmer.
