Exeter and Lucan juniors.
prepping for .their opening tilts
In the eight-team Shamrock "D"
loop, played to a 5-5 tie. in an
exhibition match. in Lucan are-
na, Friday,
Tt WAS the first time on the
ice for both clubs, but they
Planned the game due to the
fact they both were having dif-
ficulty securing ice time for
practices, and the locals ac-
epted the invitation of Luean
coach, john Roberts, to share
the ice,
The local squad, under coach
Reg MacDonald, opened up a
4-1 lead at the end of the first
period, but had to come up
with a single tally in the final
stanza to tie with the Lucan
six who had moved ahead with
four unanswered markers in the
middle frame,
Lucan started the scoring with
Don Coughlin teaming up with
shifty Bill Neil to blink the light
behind Leslie Howard after only
a few minutes' play in the
game,
Exeter came back to knot the
count at one each when Gary
Parsons dented the twine at the
0:04 mark and Bob Jones sent
them into a 2-1 lead at the 9:49
mark on a play with Jim Smith.
Lester Heywood gave them a
.(evo-goal margin about two min-
utes later and Fred Wells took
a pass from Parsons with only
12 seconds left in the stanza to
climax their four-goal spree.
Neil on spree
However, led by little Bill
Neil, the hosts came up with
four of their own markers in
the second period to move into
a 5-4 lead.
Neil blinked the light three
limes in succession in the first
11 minutes to even the count
and Joe O'Neil gave them the
lead on a play with Tim Alec
at the 15:05 mark.
Exeter was playing a man
short on two of Neil's
Lucan managed to hold their
slim margin throughout most of
the final period, but young Bob
Marehilton teamed up with
Pete McFalls and Dale Turvey
to heat Bill Darling for the
equalizer.
Exeter picked up six of the
eight penalties in the tilt, in-
cluding a 10-minute misconduct
to Dale Turvey in the eeeeed
period.
Young squads
Both coaches of the two area
squads will have comparatively
young players in their lineups
this 'year, as Exeter has only
six regulars left from last sea-
son and Lucan are entering, for
their first try in the popular
junior loop,
• It took them a long time to do it, but the
proud New York Yankees have proven once .again
that they are the best baseball team in the world,
and although many baseball, fans still won't give
them this credit, they have the money to prove
it.
Besides being one of the longest world
series on record, the 1962 affair will certainly
have to go clown in the record books as one of
the closest affairs staged as the Giants actually
WW1 on total score by a 21-20 count.
However, it's games that count and the
Yankees won the extra one to take home the extra
. $4,000.00 winners' share of the rich pot.
Pitching was undoubtedly the predominant
, aspect of the series, although several key defens-
:ive plays by players on both squads aided the
strong arms of Ford. Terry, Stafford, Pierce, San-
lord and O'Dell in their winning efforts.
Most of the "big names" in the battinr
orders of both teams failed to live up to theft
expectations, as is often the case in this fall
:classic, but Mickey Mantle would probably have
to get the nod as the most disappointing figure in
the set with his pathetic batting average, but he'll
probably be excuse-1 by most ardent Yankee fans
as he was instrumental in getting the Bronx Bomb-
ers into the set in the first place.
Naturally in such a keenly contests _I series
there are one or two plays in every game where
one can look back and note that "if" it had been
different, the game may have had a different out-
come,
This was certainly brought to the fore-
ground in the bottom of the ninth in the final
game when the Giants hail a wonderful opportun-
ity to either tie it up or win.
If Felipe Alou or Chuck Hiller had been
able to lay down their attempted bunts and move
Matty Alou to second they could have tied it, or if
Willie McCoYey's smash had been a foot or two
to the right, Richardson may not have made the
catch and the Giants could have won.
However, this is baseball, and these "if"
situations are what make it so exciting. And, no
' matter how you were betting, the 1962 series would
have to be described as exciting even though the
pitching did dominate.
HERE WE GO AGAIN
We attempted to make the preceding jargon
sound as though we weren't too concerned over
the fact we had lost half our life savings (50 cents)
• betting on the Giants. but if you read carefully
between the lines you may spot a few salty tears.
However, after w riting it we realized it was
about time we came up with our annual predic-
tions for the NHL. so we set aside our soaked
handkerchief with the expectation of recouping
:our losses on our annual infallible hockey prognos-
tications.
But, after giving Friday morning's stand-
ings a quick perusal, we realized that it would take
considerable polish to ever get our trusty crystal
ball into shape to sec \\ hat may happen during
this season.
You can well imagine our glee in noticing
that our favorite Detroit Red Wings were off and
running without a defeat and were leading the
league by three points.
However, after giving away all my Gordie
Howe trading cards after the way in which they
disappointed we last year, I decided to use a bit
of discretion before picking them to remain on
their lofty perch throughout their remaining 66
contests.
Actually, we still find it difficult to go with
anyone except the Montreal Canadiens, who have
annexed the league title more times than their
opposition would wish to recall.
They are having netminding problems m fth
Jacques Plante being confined to the infirmary, and
we still think they are a bit light on defense. But
the old story that the best defense is a good .Of-
fense still holds true and they have a power-packed
forward unit that can break out with five or six
goals in any contest.
They undoubtedly have a hand of the most
"brittle" and injury-prone players in the circuit,
but a healthy Canadien team is still the best in the
league.
Our choice for the number two spot would
be the Chicago Black Hawks. who are off to their
usual slow start. But there's no indication that
this club that went to the Stanley Cup finals last
year have bast any strength and their usual second
half burst will make them strong contenders,
There appears to be nothing but sentiment
In our choice of Detroit for third spot, because
there are no real Illajeer lineup changes in this
club that ended in fifth place last year.

gaining confidence with the use of a face mask,

they could easily make it.
In dropping Toronto, last year's champions,
all the way to fourth would appear to he utter
nonsense, but Johnny Bower has seen better days
as have Red Kelly and Allan Stanley, who along
with the departed-Bert Olmstead were key figures
last season.
It would appear to be a toss-up between
Boston and New York for the cellar position, but
we'll give the nod to the Rangers to grab the
rather dubious honors.
Boston appear to ha.ve solved sonic of their
goaltending problems with the .acquisition of Bob
