program, to be known as "All Star Night", will
be held Friday night with the squirt ail stars get-
fing things underway at 6,30, playing host to
Goderich,
Pee wee, bantam and midget games will
follow every hour on the hour with the opposition
coming from Stratford. Come one, come all for
full night 'of ice action!
A "Family Hockey Night" is being plan-
ned for sometime in March when every boy that
participates in house loop play will be on the ice
to display his abilities.
This year the Exeter Minor Hockey As-
sociation is operating a program for 306 boys
ranging in age from four to 18.
Rev, Drell. DeVries, chairman of EMHA,
has indicated that he is pleased with this year's
program under the capable direction of Rec Di-
rector Don "Boom" Gravett. He feels that with
new regulations in effect, the conduct of the
boys is of a higher standing and good sports-
manship is being shown at all times..
Rev. DeVries stated that he has received
many kind comments about the conduct and be-
haviour of the Exeter Minor clubs that take part
in out-of4own events.
This corner would like to support this
statement, having attended the Silver Stick Inter-
national Tournament in Port Huron over the
weekend. We heard several remarks from fans
and officials regarding the sportsmanship of the
pee wee players and management.

Hitherto unbeaten Per lob
Hustlers dropped their first
tilt in six startswhen they
were edged by the third-place
Moopshipers in a thrilling fie
niSh. 56-54.
A last quarter spurt by
George Wright enabled the
Peripatetic Pedagogues to deci-
sion the Flying Farmers 40-36
in the nightcap and put the
teachers back on top of the
scoring heap with a three point
edge on previous leader Tom
Burke.
TEAM EFFORT
Getting a steady wellebala.n-
ped scoring effort from all
Seven players, the Moenshiners
took an early lead and were
able to hold off the league
leaders.
Jumping away to aquick start
the Shiners led 18-9 at quarter
time, maintained a 32-38 half-
time margin and the hoopsters
traded point for point most of
the remaining way.
The stars of the game turned
out to be a pair of school-
masters playing op opposite
sides.
Don O'Brien's 28-point effort
was far and away the highest
output of the night while John
McCarron fired a long looping
shot in the dying moments that
proved to be the winner.
Tom Burke with 12 and Roy
Wiebe with 11 paced the scoring
for the winners.
Backing up O'Brien's scoring
for the Hustlers was Keith Lo-
vell, who dropped in four field
goals and three tries from the
foul line.
LATE RALLY
In the second part of the
doubleheader the clubs battled
back and forth throughout a
nip and tuck first half that
ended in a 18-18 knot.
In a close-checking t hi r d
quarter the Flying Farmers got
airborne to move into a 30-24
command. Moving into the final
period, George Wright assumed
leadership, dumping in half of
his night's total output of 20
to provide the margin of victory.
Jim Carey with five scores
from the floor backed up Wright
frame and Randy McLean near
the end of the contest were
responsible for the lakeport
tallies.
Despite the loss two local
youngsters, Larry Haugh and
Guenther were picked as the
first two stars of the game
in recognition of their fine play.
Failing in their bid to retain
the Clinton Kinsmen Trophy
that has been coming to Exeter
for the past two years, the
local squirts lost a close 2-1
decision to Goderich in the
opening game of the annual
tourney in Clinton Saturday.
Despite the loss, the locals
turned in one of their better
performances of the season,
holding an edge in the terri-
torial play and in the shots
on goal count. They were ham
pered by several costly off-
sides as the kids were a little
over-anxious.
Jimmy Guenther, the Dash-
wood stalwart, hit the score-
board in the first period on
a neat effort to put the Exeter
boys into an early lead.
Gordon Fisher in the middle
SHDHS cage teams scored
a clean sweep over Mitchell
squads last week to give the
local school a 10-6 record in
games for the season.
Junior boys scored the big-
gest win, a 49-1 rout of their
hapless P e r th counterparts.
Panthers, after taking a 29-13
lead at the half, coasted to a
48-35 win.
Senior girls posted an easy
40-21 triumph and the junior
misses came through with their
first victory of the season by a
17-12 count.
KYLE SHINES
Steve Kyle again sparked the
Panther attack, hooping half his
22-point total in a riot first
quarter. Kyle potted eight bas-
kets and sunk all six free throws
he was awarded.
Dennis Mock contributed 12
points for SHigh, with Dave
Buchanan adding eight. Bruce
Horton scored two baskets and
Roger Cann sunk a single.
Individual scoring leader of
the game was Jim Mitchell,
with 24 points for the losers.
Toni McNaught added seven.
TEN SHARE POINTS
Ten members of the junior
squad contributed to their lop-
sided win. They were paced by
Ron Metz and Bob Burns with
10 points each. Larry Idle ac-
counted for six, Jim Coates
and Bob Wolfe, five each; Dave
Dale and Barry Baynham, four
each; Wayne Baynham and John
Locke, two each; Rick Schroe-
der, one.
The juniors took a 14-3 lead
in the first quarter, made it
21-3 at the half to clinch the
game. Their best scoring spree
came in the final period when
they added 1'7 points, holding
Mitchell to 2.
A SLOW START
The senior girls didn't start
to roll until the second half
of their contest. They trailed
died each other goal Per goal
in regulation time, ending the
three fifteen minute steep:5 in
a 3-3 Cleedleck. The shots on
gal were also even 15,15 to
create what the announced ter-
med a perfect tie game,
After several minutes of cep-
saltation with &erne citadels
and Fred Lairiline, Western
Vision Commissioner, the refe-
rees Red Graham of Point Ed-
ward and Bill Greer of Royal
Oak ordered the teams into a
five-minute overtime period.
Bob Crosby fired the winning
marker for Don Mills after only
forty seconds of extra time and
Dean Mitchell nabbed his second
of the fray two minutes later
to put the garne out of reach
of the Exeterites.
John Roulston opened the sco-
ring in the contest on a long
drive from the blue line on a
relay from Bill Fairlaairn and
Fairbairn tipped in John Loa-
der's pass to account fpr the
locals' counters in the openipg
period.
John McBrantney and Dean
Mitchell fired the Don Mills
scores to leave the tilt knotted
2-2 after fifteen minutes of
play,
After a scoreless second ses-
sion, John Loader put his dad's
team into a temporary lead op
a nice effort as he picked up
Fairbairn's pass and broke in
close to the net. As he was
turned around by the defence-
man, he backhanded the rubber
into a corner of the cage.
Don McLarity tied matters
up at the 6.18 mark of the
third period and the boys bat-
tled the rest of the way in
regulation time to come up
with a stalemate on scores and
on shots on the nets.
The local lads appeared tired
in the first game as the result
of two games the day before
and the trip to Port Huron via
storm-blown roads.
BAYNHAM BEATS AMERKS
With Barry Baynham notching
the hat-trick, the locals corn,
pletely carried the play over
their rivals from Houghton, in
their second outing of the after-
noon,
Baynham started his marks-
manship midway through the
initial period as' he took a
Bill Fairbairn pass and fired
a rising shot into the far corner.
The only score of the sand-
wiched session was tipped inby
Ricky Weber after John Loader
had bounced one off the cross
bar and a shot by Frank De

ted the other three and Susan

lens, 13, and Ausma Gulens,
nine.

points, two-thirds of Mitchell's
total.

BY DICK WEBER
After four weeks of the men's
second draw, there are still
many contenders for top honors
on Monday and Thursday nights
but the Tuesday night compe-
tition is narrowing.
On the Monday draw, there
are no undefeated rinks. Dick
Roelofson leads with 40 points,
followed by John Goman with
3'7 and Don Graham with 36.
Almer Passmore and BevMor-

are well in the running,
The Tuesday night draw is
another story as the two rinks
that were undefeated continued
to win. Les Parker defeeted Bill
MacLean to Make it four
straight while Russ Snell stayed
right behind in the point count
by scoring a win over Allan

We'd like to pay tribute to the men who
give unsparingly of their time and quite often
their resources to further the interests of our
national sport locally.
Play gets under way in the six team pee
we loop each Saturday morning at 8.00 a.m. with
Larry Howard, Gord Baynham, Alf Smith, Art
Stork, Red Loader, Lorne Haugh and Harry
Page guiding the young pucksters.
The pee wee contests have been shortened
to fifty minutes to allow a little more ice time for
the 110 boys that are in the nine and under brack-
et. At approximately 10.40 the ice surface is
divided into three sections to allow the 70-odd
kids, seven years of age and under to get into
the act and scramble for the puck at the same
time.
About 40 of the eight and nine age brack-
et take to the ice at 11.20 to round out a busy
morning of puck chasing.
Some of the same men that coach earlier,
Storie, Page and Howard are on hand to guide
the younger tykes along with fellows like Bob
McDonald, Bill Gilfillan and Sgt. Lane.
The bantam house league with four teams
takes over the six to seven slot on Mondays and
Tuesdays with Pete Durand, Loader, Lyle Rid-
dell and Doug Grayer handling most of the coach-
ing responsibilities.
The older boys competing in midget-juve-
nile ranks can be seen in action every Tuesday
from seven to ten o'clock, Art Stratton, Joe Gosar,
Rev. Bren DeVries, Alvin Willert, Leo Burns and
the faithful Art Storie are on hand to administer
advice.
Some of the house league coaches have
taken on the added responsibilities of guiding
the all-star teams that will be on parade Friday
night,
These picked squads playing in Shamrock,
WOAA and exhibition competition are handled
by Don Gravett, Lloyd Cushman, Derry Boyle,
Bill Musser, Red Loader, Gord Baynham and
Lorne Haugh.
These men are aided greatly by parents
who have been helping in transporting the
youngsters to and from games.
In order to maintain a successful hockey
program for youngsters, in addition to managers
and coaches, a very 'important role is that of the
referee.
Oft ridiculed, these men in 'the striped
shirts are necessary to enforce the rules of the
ice while maintaining order and the minor pro-
gram at the local arena is fortunate to have a
goodly number of boys and young men willing
to handle these chores.
Doug Taylor, Rick MacDonald, Peter De-
Vries, Don 'Cann, Brian Baynham, Larry Willert,
Jim MacDonald, Gord Greenacre and Rick Boyle
are a few of the boys Who have been giving free-
ly of their time in an officiating capacity.
A step in the right direction to continue
A steady flow of competent officials is being taken
by 'the Lake Huron Zone Minor Sports Commit-
tee in holding referees and rules clinics in the
area,
One of these clinics was held in Wingham
a week ago With Larry Stire, Frank Boyle, Gerald
'McBride, Peter DeVries and Larry Willett ac-
companying Don Gravett, area chairman. The in-
structor in charge was George Bayne, referee-in-
chief of minor hockey in Hamilton.
All in all, Exeter has a very effective
minor set-up, thanks to the gentlemen mentioned
along with many others behind the scenes, in-
cluding arena Manager Alvin Willett. We are
pleased to pay tribute to everyone involved dur-
ing minor hockey week
Let's show Our appreciation to them by
attending as many games as possible not only
this week but as often throughout the year as
possible.
Remember to follow the plans of the felt
lbw at the bottom of this page, and take your
boy to the game. Most important, stay and watch
him play Friday night 6.30 to 10.30.
