until- near the end of the God-
erich series.
For a team , that was thrown
together quickly at the first of
the.: season, it came through e
hectic season well. The club took
24 games before it was able to
click as a unit' but fans found
the wait well worth their while.
!Celle Bowman, former Elmira
Polar King Star, assembled the
dab last fall with the help of
Manager Charlie Acheson after
early plans failed to materialize.
Coach Bowman had hoped to
bring with him a' number of the
Polar King stars but this plan
went a&tray when the Elmira
team changed its • mind about re-
tiring and joined,.the Senior "B"
wars,
Officials Stop Airmen
Failure o'f Centralia airport
and Clinton to field a club helped
the Mohawk cause, Several of the
airmen felt Obliged to drop out
later, however, when officials
frowned 'on ,playing for the civil-
ian .team.
From last year's club came
Doug 'Smith, Bill . Musser, Barry
Doak and Frank Anderson. Red
Exeter weren't able to touch
Goderich Sailors until the play-
offs. In' two exhibition games and
six regular contests, the tribe
came only within three goalsof
a victory. But the club didn't
prove that easy meat in the fin
als and stretched the .series- to
seven games before bowing out,
The scores were '8-5, 3-6, 3-3,
5-4, 2-6, 5-2, and 8-0.
Red Loader, Harry McEwen,
Don Grayett and Pete Restelli
led the club in scoring during
the regular season in that order,
Me"Ewen, Loader and Anderson
were the top three of the Strath-
roy series with Loader, Trendell
and McEwen carrying the brunt
of the attack in the final. set,
Although attendance figures
aren't known, it is believed the
local club out -drew any :previous
team which .carried the 'Exeter
colours. The last two crowds ex-
ceeded 1,400 and the gate of
the last one exceeded $1,000.

The Ron Westman trophy, em-
blematic of broomba1l supremacy,
was presented to the Mohawk
team on ,Sunday .evening by Dick
Watson. A vote of thanks to Ron
W.estman, donor .of this 'beauti-
ful new trophy, a handsome ad-
dition to our sports awards. This
climaxed veryr
cled :& . hard fought play-
off. '
The Teenagers, downed 5-0 in
the afternoon game, came back
strong in the evening feature but
were out -lucked around the goal,
chiefly due to the diminutive
"Broom Broom" who played Kit-
ty bar the door, so well in the
afternoon game. He got a shut-
out and held the fast Teenagers
to 2 goals,
In the evening game Coach
McFalls elected to use the -Can-
adiens system of two goalies
throughout the first game but
decided on ,Jacques Ostiand for
the final.
The Mohawk strategy was to
tie up "Stretch" Middleton and
"Home ,Stretch" Parsons and this
Paid off in the first game, But
