Sportsmen's dinner in aid of crippled children and we are happy to say A couldn't have been any more SUCeeSsful than it was. Athletes came hundreds and some thousands of miles from the United States and. Canada to make the event a memorable , one. We ran into aur old friend from New Hamburg, HOWIE MEEKER, and he gave us a soggy picture of the LEAFS' future this year and next. • The crew-cut pilot figures that the club eliding in second place will win the Stanley Cup. When asked about the newly -acquired BOSTON goalie, DON SIMMONS, Howie didn't think that he could, touch the goaltending of TERRY SAWCHUCK. "I could play goal for them with the kind of protection Sim - Mons has in front of him," retorted Meeker. Key injuries have hurt the LEAFS considerably this year and with the younger players not living up to expectations, the Leaf coach led this corner to believe that the Leafs would be finishing out of the money series this year and possibly next with not much new talent in sight. MEEKER thinks 'sure fire" future stars now with the hog town crew lie in PUL - FORD REAUME, BAUN and CHADWICK. FRANK "KING" CLANCY was high on the RED WINGS to win the Stanley Cup if the MONTREAL CANADIENS keep going the way they are. "CANADIENS aren't a hungry hockey club," said King. "But as the playoffs draw near, I wouldn't sell them short." When. the LEAFS beat MONTREAL 3-1 last week CLANCY and MEEKER thought the Canucks only played 60 per cent of their usual game. An interesting experience happened to Clancy at the GARDENS in TORONTO while he was the head ref one night. It seems that this lady in a box seat was really riding Frank because he had given a Toronto.' player a penalty. "You're a bum, Clancy, and you'll always be one," the woman shouted at the top of her lungs for nearly three periods. Finally the puck was shot over the boards onto the walkway in front of the lady who had been giving Clancy such rough. time. M Clancy picked up the puck she bellowed loud and clear, "Clancy, if you were any Inlsband I'd. feed you poison!" Just then the mild- mannered King looked up at her and said, "Lady, If I was your husband I'd take it!" SANDY SOMERVILLE, the only CANADIAN to win:, the UNITED STATES AMATEUR golf champion- ship, told us• that he has had no lesS than four holes in •one. Sandy sank two of the four in tournament play with the first coining at BALTIMORE'S ,FIVE FARMS GOLF COURSE. ATTENTION EXETER GOLFERS!—He told me that there are some putts you never miss. I wonder where they all got to. PAT O'CONNOR, famed INDIANAPOLIS SPEED- WAY DRIVER in the 500 lap races in the 'U.S., will be leaving for ITALY in June to compete in Inter- national competitions in which 10 cars from each country will take part. PAT told us of an interesting race where he had about 14 laps to go in the 500 lap feaure; when his •car broke down. A. quick pit. step and be was off again. Thinking he was well ahead. Of evel,one, the good-looking youngster peered out of the corner of his eye just in time to see another car slip by.him at 198 miles per hour as though he were standing still. "What could I do? I had it floor- ed all the way," exclaimed Pat. CHARLIE GEHRINGER, vice-president of the DETROIT TIGERS, said the Tigers would finish no worse than the DETROIT LIONS in football or the DETROIT RED WINGS in hockey. Are you listening down there at Fink's? • London's pride and joy, DON GETTY, the only CANADIAN QUARTERBACK to- guide the EDMON- TON ESKS to the Grey Cup, told this corner that his greatest thrill in 'the "big game" was when he threw a long forward pass to PARKER for a T.D. just before half time was called. The modest GETTY explains that everyone was too busy watching the final. few sceonds tick away on the clock so that's why his pass WAS good. The most heart-warming speech from the celeb- rity table came from the lips of an idol of hundreds of wrestling fans, WHIPPER BILLY WATSON. The Whip gave one of the most serious appeals that this corner has heard in some time. Sincere -in every word he said. WATSON told about the crippled kiddies all across our grand country. In fact, so earnest was his speech that he brought tears into a good majority of the 300 guests' eyes. "Gentlemen, it's notasympathy these kids want. It's your help to get better just as fast as they tan." This phrase was really pushed home by Bill as one could see in his eyes the love of a family man for children. We salute a man like this who spends so Much time with crippled youngsters and still man- ge S to lend,a strong helping hand at banquets and allyWhere else he may be asked. He's a top -grade . ano• SPORTSMEN'S DINNER — Baseball strategy was discussed at London's first annual Sportsmen's Dinner on Wednesday evening as Charley Gehringer, former Detroit Tiger baseball star, left, and Leo "The Lip" Dur'cher, ex -manager of the New York Giants and Brooklyn Dodgers, talk it over with the T -A's Sports Editor, Don Gravett. Draft 'Drastic' Strategy For Legion -Kin Contest BY DON GRAVETT Hockey supremacy in Exeter will be decided on Friday night! The battle of the year is about to take place between Exeter Kins- men and Exeter Legion this Friday, March 15, at 9,30 p.m. in the local arena. The Kinsmen and Legionaires will don their hockey parapher- nalia for a 60 -minute struggle for most of the players. We say most of .the players, because after the two -game series the Exeter Kinsmen held with their arch rivals from Hen- sall, a couple of the boys haven't been seen since! Presidents Lloyd -Ford, of the Kinsmen, and Harry Holtzman, of the Legion, both appeared in this newspaper office to give up- to-date comments and views. , Ford, who acts like fiery Conn Smythe, of the famed Toronto Men Bowlers In Playdowns it's play-off time in the Men's Bowling League. All of the teams got down to brass tacks on the first two :nights of play-off, activ- ity arid from the showings, it looks as though a battle to .the wire is in store for any of the teams with the championship gleam in their eyes. Not one team in the ten that took to the lanes on Monday and Tuesday of this week could mus- ter a seven -point victory. "Punch." Wells was the pin happy bowler of the week a he punched out an exclusive 726 triple on the new set of pin purchased by Rene Francois proprietor of the Exeter Bowling Lanes. With his high triple, he gelded his' team to the top side of a 5.2 split in points over the Canners, Graham Arthur was the big man for the Spare Parts as his 609 total helped topple out five points from the Pepsies. The Milkmen, Windmills and Huskies mere the other five - point winners of the week. Neil Redman led the Wind- mills with a 641 evening while Wes Ryckman with 560 and Herni Dettmer's 570 were the pace- setters in the Huskies and Milk- men victories respectively.

Game time is 9.30 p.m. ps & Downs Up Top Now The Ups & Downs are setting the pace in the "A" Group play- offs of the Ladies Bowling League. Ups & Downrhold a two point edge • over their closest rivals the Hi -Lights, who have now gathered together 10 points as a result of a five -point victory over the Gren Horns last week. The Be -Bops and Whatnots are currently tied for the third slot with nine points each, while the Mery Maids anti Biowettes bring up the fifth and sixth positions with eight and seven points respectively.
