In the tournament semi-finals, Clinton posted a 3.0 win over Seaforth, while Exeter gained a bye into the finals when their opposition from Zurich failed to show up. The first period of the final failed to produce any goals as Exeter's Don Shane and Clin- ton's Lawrence Elliott turned aside all the shots the teams threw their way, However, Larry Haugh team- ed up with. Ron Janke to push Exeter into a 1.0 lead in the early minutes of the second stanza and Randy Parsons fin• ished off a play with Marvin Bower and Jim Parker to give the locals a 2.0 lead. Clinton managed to hit the score sheet in the dying min- utes of the period when Greg Burns took a pass from Bill Stirling to find an open corner behind Shane. However, the Exeter six came right back with the an• swer when jimmy Guenther slid the disc into the Clinton net after he had taken a pass from Bruce Fetcher on a play started by Larry Haugh. Clintorefetrghtaback desperate- ly in the final period and their efforts were finally rewarded when Bill.

Bill Sholdice accounted for the other Byron tally. David Burke and John Loa• der were the lone Exeter marksmen. Sholdice opened the scoring After only 25 seconds of play as he fired a blazer past Rick Betted' and then MacSween upped the lead to 2.0 with his first goal.

It is doubtful whether the song -will ever regain itspopularity and climb to the top of the -heap to displace 'The Twist". but a song that bears a strong resemblance might well be the "big mover" in New York, especially in the Rangers' :camp and is entitled "What a Difference Eight :Weeks Makes". Approximately that length of time has elaps- ed since we sat down and pounded out a column ,extolling the merits of Ranger coach, Doug Han- :vey, \vile had taken over the reins of the perennial :tail-enders to lead them into first place in the Today., they find themselves exactly five :positions back of this elevated position and there tee little indication that they will finish the season :much higher, unless they make a complete about :face. They had an eight-game losing streak going 'far them by last weekend and trailed the fourth" place Detroit Red Wings by two points. This made a bit of a farce out of our column :at that time that pointed out how much difference :a coach can make to a team and how that the !Rangers had needed only a team leader of Hate 'vey's calibre. At the time, with the Rangers iii first place, this appeared to all very well and good, but it just goes to show that some people don't always know what they are talking about. • However, we can't really see where the Ra„ngers have gone wrong, or where the other teams have gone right. The polling for the all-star selections and 'trophy winners at the end of the first half of the :season shows that Harvey is still regarded as the best defenseman in the league. While one defense- man never makes a team, there is little doubt that he has considerable influence on his other blueline cohorts, so we can't really see where they have lost enough in this department to cause them to slip so badly. • At present, Andy Bathgate has a seven-point •bulge in the scoring race in the NEIL and he con- :times sinking them with regularity. Dean Prentice and Earl Ingarfield are among the top scorers, while Andy Hebenton isn't too far behind. And .lest we forget. Carrillo Henry has already reached the charmed class of the 20-goal scorers, although :he has only picked up nine assists. However, this indicates that the Rangers have several potent scorers and actually they are third in team scoring in the big time. So, this only leaves us with one position left to review and it appears that poor old Gump :Worsley will probably be handed much of the blame for his team's decline. Certainly, we can't blame an entire team's poor showing on a goal- tender, but it does prove that he has a great deal to do with a team's standing. In the HIM standing released before the weekend games, it shows that both New York and the lowly Boston Bruins have scored more goals • than theChicago Black Hawks and the Detroit Red Wings. However. the Hawks and the Wings have had fewer scored against them and this appears to be the deciding factor. In fact, in the goals-against column, the teams' standings are reflected exactly. as the Mont- real Canadiens have the least scored against them and the figures increase in order right down to the Bruins, who have watched the most pucks :gleaned from their nets. So, the next time you hear someone say that the best defense is a good offense, you don't • necessarily have to believe them. Unless. of course, the next eight weeks bring about the complete switch and it is proven once again that this is undoubtedly the best job to have if you like eat- ing words, •• THAT'S ONE FOR THE BOOKS In January', when, the sports writers and sports casters and other influential people get to- gether to pick the outstanding athletes in Canada during the past year, they naturally can't pick a unanimous winner. In 1961, the honor went to the brilliant young Toronto runner, Bruce Kidd, There is no doubt that this youngster set imaginations aflutter with his remarkable performances, but there were those who pointed out that others were more de- serving. Bernie Geoffrion, who scored 50 goals for the Montreal Canadiens, was a top choice by many sportsmen who figured he should have won the honor. However, a news bulletin reached our desk recently that shows that Kidd's choice was rather intriguing. This letter stated that the Amateur Athletic Union had picked Vancouver's Harry. Jerome as the outstanding tick star of the year. This certainly appears contradictory when :Kidd_ was named the top athlete because of his impressive distance running here and south of the border and Jerome .was the choice of the govern- ' ing body of the sport. A closer look at the records offers a logical . explanation. While Kidd may have impressed many e..with his one, two and three mile performances,. Jerome's clockings were actually better by coin, parisori, The young sprinter is ranked third ih the world, while 'Kidd is unranked among the world's distance men. In 14 races inrairope last year. Jerome won 12, losing only to Frank Budd of Villanoyg University, the world's top sprinter. While Kidd is destined to be one of the better athletes ever produced in Canada, this may. : indicate that the selectors were a bit premature in selecting him as the outstanding athlete. We certainly trust that the fact that Jerome is a negro had nothing to do with his lower stand, lli in the voting. • BATT'N AROUND—Aid are certainly glad' - to hear that theTillsoriburg Livingstohs .decided to :•carry on in the basketball wars, even though their sponsor decided to give them up.
