PRESERVE MARGIN Returning to Fergus Monday with a healthy six goal lead to try arid preserve, the Bantams not only achieved this but added one to the total edge in winning 3-1 and coming home happy with a 13 - 6 series win. Paul Mason provided most of the scoring punch, nabbing a pair of markers, one in each of the first and last stanzas. Scoring what proved to be the winner late in the third was Scott Burton, nabbing his seventh counter in his team's last three outings. 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111fflitailliiilltillintellilellillienliiiliell1111111111111111111111 Why Go Elsewhere? SEE WUERTH'S FOR ROCK BOTTOM PRICES Hip Waders $9.75 Midgets lose opening test With a pair of decisive vic- tories over St. Marys after more than a week's lay-off, the Hensall-Zurich Combines took a stranglehold on their best- of-seven Shamrock junior se- ries. Taking the second game in the Stone Town by a 8-1 count Wednesday, the H-Z boys came back to the friendly confines of their home rink Friday to hang up a 4-0 shut out. The fourth game of the set was played in St. Marys last night and if a fifth is needed it will go in Hensall, Friday, SCORE IN 30 SECONDS Showing lots of zip after ten days of inactivity, the Combines wasted little time hitting the score sheet in St. Marys, Wed- nesday.

Dates for the playdowns have pot been arranged, Panthers exploded for a72.48 win over Mitchell Wednesday, Feb. 28, to clinch their title in decisive style. The SH victory destroyed Mitchell's hopes of tieing the Panthers and forcing a group playoff. The juniors wound up their schedule with an even more convincing win--a 98.22 deci- sion. The title-clinching triumphs indicate South Huron teams are at their peak after a slow start. They both lost their opening games to Listowel but impreved steadily to take command of their respective leagues. In the final games, Mitchell remained within striking dis- tance in the hrst halves before South Buren turned on cham- pionship pressure. Steve Kyle, along with several other Panthers, displayed his best offensive form of the sear son, hooping a total of 29 points, evenly distributed ever the four each found the mark later in the period to give their line the first three scores. The same line came bouncing out to start the second and again were in the sc o r ing column before one minute had elapsed. This time the proce- dure was reversed, Paul Draper doing the netting and Livermore on the feeding end. A quick line-change brought goal number five 35 seconds later, Brian Bonthron doing the honours with help from Harold Jacques and Earl Wagner. Singles by Bill Shaddick and Livermore wound up the middle frame production. The teams traded scores in the closing period, Bob Johnston notching for the winners and Wayne McKenney spoiled Den- nis Mock's chances for a shut- out with less than three minutes to go.

Scoring a dozen goals apiece, Exeter's Bantam and Midget aggregations on home ice Wed- nesday downed their opposition from Wingham to take the best of three sets in straight games and move into the second round of WOAA playdowns. In taking the first game of the night the Bantams allowed three scores by the visitors, while the Midgets with Tommy Glavin between the pipes kept the northerners off the score sheet. Continuing to display a steady team effort, Derry Boyle's Ban- tams knbcked off Fergus in a home and home total goal series 13-6 to advance into the WOAA finals against either Walkerton or Kincardine. CLOSING FLURRY Taking advantage of better conditioning the local lads out- lasted their opposition on Exe- ter ice Friday scoring half of their goals in the last five minutes of play to hang up a 10-4 win and enjoy a six goal margin to take to Fergus. In the first two frames play was very evenly matched with a 2-2 score being a good indi- cation of the closeness. Bob Grayer maintained his late season high scoring record accounting for the first Exeter scores, one coming late in the first and the other early in the second. Ron Weatherhead and Paul Sullivan registered for Fergus to put the boys on even terms after forty minutes. G r aye r picked up number three near the mid-way point of the closing session and started the sniping spree. Bill Beavers and Scott Burton with two apiece and singles from Ken Davidson and Peter Lawson were responsible for six flashes from the goal judge in the final seven minutes of action. Harvey Hewer and Murray Darroch were responsible for the final Fergus scores, also coming in the closing minutes. The visitors arrived with only eleven players and one of these was injured during the contest with the result they simply ran Opening the WOAA Midget final on foreign ice in Kincar- dine Monday, the Midgets drop- ped a close 5-3 decision in a contest that was in doubt to the closing seconds. Both clubs turned in a good brand of hockey that kept a crowd of about 400 on the edges of their seats throughout. Two goals from free wheeling Larry Stire gave the locals a 2-1 edge after one period of action, with Tim Bell the only hometowner to hit the score- sheet. Kincardine came roar ing back to get three unanswered goals in the middle twenty mi- nutes from the sticks of Came- ron Wilson and the Bell Boys Steve and Tim. The Exeterites returned with a strong effort as John Lock found the range to come within one of tying things up. As time was running out Boom's boys were pressing and containing the home team in their own end when Steve Bell broke into the clear and fired the insurance marker. different players sharing in the statistics. Bob Storie, Allan Thompson and Mike Cushman were on the firing end of these three way combinations. Larry Stire with his first on the way to a hat trick and a single unassisted tally from Ron Broderick put the locals out in front 9-0 when the clubs headed for the dressing rooms for the second time. Stire came back to complete his three goal performance in forty-five seconds of his first whirl on the ice in the last period and along with a solo effort from Bob McDonald brought the final tabulation to twelve.

As in St. Marys they had the goal judge on his toes before some of the fans were in their seats. Ron Livermore started the action with a whistling drive from the left side that hit the boards, bounced back over the net out in front and before Marty Humphries knew where the puck was Craig Chapman had slapped it home. Goal number two came on a neat passing play culminatedby Wayne Willert. Earl Wagner carried over the St. Marys blue-line, faked a shot, dropped the puck back to a flying Brian Bonthron, who flipped it back to Wagner, Wagner gave it to Willert right on the edge of the goal crease and the captain tucked it into the empty corner. Play in between the scoring spurts was fast and furious with many scoring opportunities that just failed to materialize or were thwarted by stellar net guarding. With two minutes left in the tilt Bill Nurney was in the right spot at the right time to bounce in H-Z goal number three on a rebound after Bob Johnston and Bill Shaddick had good shots blocked. The line that started the game finished it off, with Livermore hitting the mark with help from Draper and Chapman as Dennis Skipper was serving time for elbowing. In posting his second white- wash job of the year, Dennis Mock turned in an outstanding effort, particularly in the final period as he made numerous dazzling saves to deny the sco- ring tries of the visitors. Bill Murney was moved up to right wing to replace flu-ridden Steve Kyle and the big fellow certainly didn't look out of place up front as he scored once and turned in a steadyperformance. Area heckey clubs of all sizes and ages are now busily engaged in play-off activities that will provide plenty of puck chasing entertainment for their fans the next couple of weeks. Three of Exeter's minor teams have moved past their first obstacles in WOAA playdowns and are now tackling their next opponents. The midgets, under the guidance of Don Gravett and Lloyd Cushman, swept past Wing- ham in easy fashion and are now battling Kincar- dine in the finals, Derry Boyle's bantams knocked off an- other team from the radio-TV town and are well on their way in the next set taking a six-goal mar- gin back to Fergus. The youngsters playing in the 12-and-under pee wee division are awaiting further word about their next opposition after easily disposing of Clin- ton nearly two weeks ago, To date, the three clubs mentioned have posted terrific season records losing only four times in a combined total of 78 games, and seem to have an edge on their play-off opponents espe- cially in conditioning, We feel this edge has developed from the busier schedule in which the local youngsters have been competing. In most WOAA groups the entries are fairly scarce and competition is limit- ed. The Shamrock leagues have helped to give the clubs more action to stay in shape. For the first time since WOAA minor hockey was started, a play-off series for squirts has been organized and an entry from Exeter will be in contention. ANOTHER JUNIOR BATTLE COMING UP In Junior D action, the Hensall - Zurich Combines currently have a commanding three- game lead in their best-of-seven series with St, Marys, In the other half of the semi-finals, Strath- roy Rockets are in a similar situation in their battle with Forest. Barring unforeseen complications, the final struggle for junior supremacy should again bring together last year's competitors. According to Don Buddo, Shamrock minor chief, there will be plenty of time allowed to declare a district winner, with the deadline being March 30. If last year's battle is any indication of what is to come that much time may be' neces- sary. A year ago the clubs needed a second series to decide a winner after the first ended in a stale- mate. The team that does emerge as the local champion will probably jump right into the pro- vincial final as there are only four other junior outfits of the same classification in the running, all being in the eastern part of the province. The H-Z club has compiled a terrifc record, dropping only one of their 27 starts to date, that coming in the final of the regular schedule. The team is in good physical condition with the return of Larry Bedard after an ankle injury and should be in a position to take a good shot at the OHA honours that narrowly escaped them last year. In intermediate company, the other Com- bine entry from Lucan-Ilderton, after finishing on top in the regular Big Eight schedule, has run into a snag in the play-off round with Seaforth and trail by one game at the moment. ZONE MINOR TOURNEY HERE The Exeter arena will be a busy spot on March 16 when the Lake Huron Zone Recreation Minor Tourney will be run off. This tourney will embrace squirt, pee wee, bantam and midget divisions and eligibility will be confined to house league players who have not signed WOAA certificates. This gives the boys that don't quite make the all-star clubs a chance to show their ice abili- ties against district pucksters of their own calibre. The teams competing here will come from Huron and Perth Counties and the winners will advance to the finals in Harriston a week later against the best of a similar tourney to be held in Owen Sound for northern youngsters. reteellnineVerakel&argeaWlee, ''"• .;:a.7.:WeeMialeMagnMeg.aalleal Combi ties t ust r Ily t sto hot Towners COMPANY CAR BANTAMS FINISH STRONG The Bantams in copping the game and the series moved into a 4-1 first period lead, slowed down to two goals in the centre session and came romping home with a six goal outburst in the last twenty minutes, Scott Burton and Bob Grayer were the big gunners in the local attack, each picking up four points on the score sheet. Burton's point getting was confined to goals, two coming in the first and the balance unas- sisted-in the final.
