Trendell, who played with Mo hawks last year, was okayed by the WOAA executive to replace Ted Bpgal, Although he’s in good shape from industrial hockey in Kitchener, he hasn’t had time to work out with the Tribe, Larry Heideman took ovex* the lead in Exeter scoring-this week, ■thanks to a terrific night against Forest when he led the kid line to a 12-goal splurge.

" and Tex McPherson scored in the third period as Sailors widened their margin. Kid Line Hot For Title Tilt Mohawks’ junior 'line caught fire Friday night to score the .important 12-3 win over Forest Lakesides which gave the Tribe the group 'title. Paced by sharpshooting Larry Heideman, who scored a double hat trick, the kid line lifted,Mo hawks out of the doldrums with their first win in seven games. Although he scored only two goals, Bill 'Wharsnby picked up the most points of the trio with seven goals. Don Gravett scored three counters and assisted on five: Heideman got two assists. The kids’ splurge cost former Mohawk Manager Charlie Ache son $25. To reward the team’s scorers the Mohawk 'booster of fers them $5.00 for a hat trick and $1.00 for each assibt on the three goals providing the play er has at least two assists. The players, incidentally, don’t take the reward personally—'they throw it into the pot they will split at the end of. the season. With Forest understaffed, Mo hawks roared to a 5-1 lead in the first period. .Gravett started the goal parade just '24 seconds af ter the first whistle. Dick Todd scored the lone Forest 'tally. 'In the second period, Forest held Mohawks to a 2-1 advantage but the locals broke loose with another five’ in 'the third. Red Graham and Fred Scott counted the other two Forest singles. Although Mohawks snapped Coach Loader's Whip Responsible For Title It was Mohawks’ superior con dition Carlier in this season which brought the town its first group •title in eight years. , Only the runaway lead which the Tribe established over the first half of the schedule allowed the club to suffer a disastrous eight-game slump and still re main on top. The Tribe squeezed into the laurels Friday night by whip ping Forest 12-3. The victory gave Exeter -a. one-point edge over Strathroy Rockets. Mohawk fans credit Coach Red Loader’s grueling workouts at the first of the season with the victory. By whipping’ his charges into shape, Loader had them rol ling before the other clubs and •they racked up a good lead. The' Tribe won its first four contests, dropped two, and then copped' six in a row. After an other two setbacks, Mohawks ad ded six more wins- to widen their first place margin to 11 points. Then the boom lowered. (While M io h a, w k s slumped, Rockets caught fire to whittle down the margin. The Strathroy club actually took over first place for several days before Mohawks sewed up the title with the Forest victory. Milverton Royals gave Mo hawks an assist on the win. By downing Strathroy 6-4 Friday night, the Royals helped Exeter’s cause. With 'the group title under their belts, Mohawks’ arrows are now aimed at the group cham pionship and then the Int. “A” WOAA title. out or their scoring- slump, they still had their trhuhles defen sively* The club had’ quite a struggle to get the puck out of its own end. ‘Even though the score indi cates a slack Forest defence, the Lakesldes’ coach, Ollie -Haddon, played one pf the best games of the night. He stopped a lot of Tribe rushes and led his- own team’s attack frequently. Forest’s peppery netminder, Rryde Dafoe, received two four- minute penalties for taking pokes at (Bill Wharnsby.
