trough with a. 4.2 "must" victory tWer tilo St
THOMAS ROYALS Ou Saturday night. Although the
club does not lay Until SaturdaY, January 5, in
SARNIA, COACH BILL WOODWARD has held chills
on SUNDAY, WEDNESDAY and THURSDAY of this
week in order to keep the boys "primed up" for the
etretch drive in the last half of the schedule. WOOD-
• WARD had a NEW YEAR'S EVE PRACTICE slated
but because of the bad road conditions for travelling,
it was cancelled.
The new coach, who knows hockey inside and
ant and really analyzes each play that takes place on
the ice during the game, isn't • fooling around an&
•since ills arrival, neither are the players. Everyone
Is dead serious and hockey minded and if the team
stays that way, WOODWARD feels that the club
will "hold its own in the league" for the balance of
the schedule.
• The Saturday night contest must have been •a
pleasing sight to the number of faithful fans who
have stayed and followed the MOHAWKS over their
0-garne losing streak, As a result of the win, high
morale persists in the tribe's .camp and eagerness is
awaiting for future •games.
In this SENIOR "B" LEAGUE, you run into a
lot of fast company and a team just can't •afford to
• let down for a minute or you'll find yourself behind
the eight -ball.
There was some talk around that a defenceman
and forward may be picked up to help the tribe but
XS one sees by the calendar, the seasons is getting on
and there' just aren't many GOOD •prospects avail-
able at such a late date. •

tender who guards the nets for the ST. THOMAS
ROYALS, played a spectacular game between the
pipes for the visitors. LOCHHEAD rose to the oc-
casion on three that could have been deadly break-
-
aways by MOHAWK forwards, and stopped a num-
ber of well -labelled shots that had goal written all
over them,
• Exeter's GAR BAKER also played a steady game
In the MOHAWK cage throughout the three periods.
Particularly in the final 20 minutes, GAR looked out-
standing as he robbed CECIL COWIE on a point
blank shot heading for the corner of the net in the
dying minutes of the game.
KEITH KEWLEY, the "IN -OUT" and "IN" coach
of the ST. THOMAS ROYALS who quit because of
a row With. one of his best players by the name of
HARRY BENTLEY, is a puzzler to this corner. Why
would a coach qiiit because he didn't get along with
one of his players? 'Usually it's the other way around.
' However, after their differences were ironed out, and
the players voted unanimously for bis return, KEW -
LEY still had a small request for the hockey club
executive. Possibly his pockets are jingling a little
more now that he continued his duties on Saturday
night in Exeter`;'

Next Week May Tell Tale
Exeter Mohawks of the 0,H.A.
Senior "B" League registered
an important 4-2 victory over
the St. Thomas Royals in their
only game of the week.
Under Coach Bill Woodward,
the tribe is starting to operate
more as a unit, as Woodward is
cracking a strong whip in order
to lift the Mohawks out of the
cellar position and into a 'Ray -
off berth.
As a result of the valuable
victory over St. Thomas, the
tribe is now five points back of
the fifth place 'Sarnia CV's and
only six behind the fourth place
St. Thomas Royals.
Anycombination of Mohawk
victories and Sarnia and • St.
Thomas losses in this week's
heavy schedule could either put
the locals right back into con-
tention or farther out of a play-
off spot.
The Mohawks have dropped
11 games to date while St. Thom-
as has absorbed nine defeats
and Sarnia eight. The difference
in the standings between the
clubs is that the Royals have
won three more than Exeter
and Sarnia two.
This Saturday night, • Coach
Bill Woodward will take his
club to the border city to do
battle with the Sarna CV's. A
Mohawk victory would certain-
ly brighten the hockey picture
considerably as far as the Exe-
ter team is concerned.

uary 8, when the Woodstock

position. •

they chalked up a close 5-4 vic-
tory over the Sarnia CV's in
Sarnia on Saturday night tp

their closest rivals, Strathroy

More than 1,000 fans saw
three majors and two game mit-

with Ken Schultz and Bruce
