HAWKS FACE CLINTON Once again It was the Cush- man, Morrissey, Boyle line that sparked the Hawks' victory as they were responsible for five of the seven Exeter goals. Cushman, who has been the local's top playoff performer, notched three goals in Friday's game to give him 20 goals for the nine playoff tilts with B el- naont and Strathroy while Mor- rissey has scored 13 and Boyle seven times. The Junior Hawks will meet Clinton in the second game of their best of seven semi-final series in Exeter Friday. LINE HOT Lanky Mike Cushman started the locals on their way in Fri- day's contest with the first of his three goals at the 5:13 mark of the initial frame. Dennis Morrissey scored an unassisted goal midway in the period when the puck bounced into the net off a Strathroy defender to give the Hawks a 2-0 bulge. Cushman notched his second marker to give thehomesters a three goal lead before the Rock- Ready Mix CONCRETE ets Ron Carrothers blinked the light behind Rick Stade to make the score 3-1 at the end of the rugged first period that pro- duced eight minor penalties. Only a minute and ten seconds had elapsed in the second period when Rick Boyle took passes from Morrissey and Cushman to score the eventual winning goal. Earl Wagner gave the Hawks a 5-1 lead at 18;07 as goaltender Rick S tad e made several picture saves to blank the visitors in the well played frame. The Strathroy squad came out flying in the final 20 minutes and Gary Chalmers scored at 3;55 to cut the Hawks lead to three goals but playing coach Wagner scored his second marker of the night to keep the locals well in the lead. After Dan Prohaska had notched Strathroy's third goal, Mike Cushman closed out the scoring with his third tally at 19:48 when he converted his own re- bound.

On previous occasions, George has been on hand to accept the Shamrock Junior "D" title as manager of the Hensall-Zurich Combines. However, this year he presented the trophy on behalf of the league to the Exeter Hawks. But the two players to whom he presented the trophy were no strangers. Both had played on his teams in previous years. Playing coach Earl Wagner is shown on the left and captain Craig Chapman receives the trophy. On the far left is Hawk manager, Lloyd Cushman. --T-A photo Pee wees ousted Although two of Exeter's minor hockey dubs are no longer competing in playoffs, area hockey enthusiasts will still be able to witness a lot of fine hockey at the local arena with the Exeter bantams and Junior Hawks still very much in the running for Ontario championships. The Hawks became Shamrock Junior "D" champions last week when they defeated a tough Strathroy crew 7-3 to take the series four game to one and they will now move out into the On- tario Hockey Association to play a best-of-seven semi-final series against Clinton. The locals, who have drawn over 2,300 fans to their last three home games, expect to be at full strength for their third playoff series. The first game of the series was played in Clin- ton last night while the second game is to be played here Friday night at 8:30. The winner of this series will play the winner of the Bobcaygeon-Wellinigton series in the all-Ontario Junior "D" final. After the Exeter pee wees captured the WOAA pennant they came up against a red hot St. Marys club in OMHA and were eliminated in two straight games to join the Exeter midgets who were ousted earlier by Mitchell. The bantams, however, who also won their WOAA flag, defeated St. Marys by six goals in the two-game goals to count series and will now advance to a semi-final set with the winner of the Elmira-Delhi series. The Exeter Rec League, which is becom- ing quite a popular loop with the players—if not with the spectators — is presently featuring a playoff between Graham and Graham and the Bank Boys for the Graham and Graham Trophy'. Graham and Graham eliminated Creditan in a three-game series while the shorthanded Bankers who were unable to defeat the Oldtim- ers during the regular season ousted the old boys two game to one to reach the finals. The Bankers who have been hit with in- juries of late will be missing three players when the series opens up on Thursday night but they may be allowed to pick up a couple of puck chasers from one of the eliminated clubs in order to carry on. MIKE CUSHMAN . . on a streak Bantam s face Elmira in OMHA semi-finals WINGS SHOULD TAKE IT With only three regular season games re- maining in their NHL schedule, it appears that the Detroit Red Wings are on their way to cap- turing their first NHL pennant in eight years. The Motor City club, who have partici- pated in the Stanley Cup Finals in the last two seasons and missed winning the Cup by one goal last year, lead the pesky Montreal Canadiens by a slim two points and while the Montrealers have the better part of the schedule from here on in, the Wings are presently the hottest team in the league and will be tough to stop. Veteran centre Norm Ullman notched his 39th goal of the season in Sunday's 5-1 win over Chicago to tie him with the Hawks' Bobby Hull for goal scoring honours while the Wings' candi- date for Rookie-of-the Year, goalie Roger Crozier, allowed only one goal to take the lead in the race for the Vezina Trophy as the top goaltender. The Exeter Junior Hawks whipped Strathroy '7-3 before 882 fans at the local arena Friday to win the best-of-seven series for the Shamrock "D" championship four games to one. Friday's fine turnout boosted Exeter's attendance to over 2,300 in the three home games of the closely played series that featured three overtime con- tests. The Hawks will now face Clinton in an 01-IA semi-final series. The Clinton Junior Colts who defeated the Hawks in a couple of exhibition tilts earlier this year should prove very for- midable opponents for the Shamrock League champs as they move out in quest of the Ontario Junior "D" flag. The Clinton squad, which had little trouble eliminating Walk- erton in four straight games for their northern league cham- pionship, is made up of several members of the Clinton Juven- iles who have reached the OMHA finals in the last two seasons. Bruce Cooper and Bob Liver- more, who along with Mike Cushman made up the top line for last years Hensall-Zurich Combines, are two of the Colts highscoring forwards. Cooper, who had been side- lined with an injury for the last two months, came back to lead the Colts with four goals in their lopsided victory over Walkerton in the third game of that series. The Clinton lineup also in- cludes members of the Blyth Juvenile club which captured the OMHA Juvenile "0" cham- pionship last year as well as one forward line from the ma- verton Junior team. As yet dates for the remain- ing five games of the series have not been set and Exeter officials are hoping that the Hawks will not be forced to play too many games in Clin- ton's small ice surface. During the regular season the Glencoe Pontiacs were the only team that were able to defeat the Hawks twice and they did it both times in the Glencoe 'match box' where the Hawks had little room to maneuver. Kensall Park 8-2 last week to take the best of three semi- final series in two straight games. Peter Kleinstiver led the Ex- eter squad with three goals in the lopsided win while Randy G ilf ill an and Don Thompson notched a pair of tallies. Perry Stover picked up a single goal for the winners. The Exeter bantams laced St. Marys 7-2 here Saturday to win their Ontario M in o r Hockey Association bantam "B" quarter-final series and advance to a semi-final series against Elmira. By virtue of Saturday's win and their 8-7 victory in the first game, the locals took the two-game goals-to-count ser- ies by a 15-9 verdict. The Exeter club, who were forced to score eight third per- iod goals to win the first game of the series, were never be- hind in Saturday's game as they completely dominated play throughout the game. John Loader paced the Exeter attack with three goals with single goals coming off the sticks of Bill Fairbairn, Mike Hoy, Barry Baynham and Jim Hayter. The Elmira-Exeter series will probably get underway this weekend but no games have been set as yet. PEE WEES OUT The Exeter pee wees were eliminated from further Ontario Minor Hockey Association play on Saturday when they lost to St. Marys 6-1. The locals dropped the first game of the two-game DENNIS MORRISSEY . . .pots 13 tallies al111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111011111111111111111111111111111111111111181111111111111011011111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111g. ip honors total goals series by a 5-2 score in St. Marys the previous night and thus lost the two game set 11-3. In the Friday contest the locals were able to hold the powerful stonetown crew to a 1-1 second period tie but St. Marys broke a 2-2 deadlock in the third period with three quick goals to win the first game. Larry Haugh and Jim Guen- ther scored Exeter goals in the first contest. It was all St. Marys in the second game in Exeter as the y built up an early lead and then coasted for the rest of the way. Larry Haugh scored the lone Exeter goal in the lopsided contest. Although the local pee wee club was eliminated from OMHA play they are still in the Sham- rock League playoffs and will begin a two-out-of-three series with either Strathroy or Stoney- brook this weekend. The Exeter club finished on top of the Shamrock League this year.

The Trailers have 140 points and lead the second place Happy Gals by 25 points with only three weeks remaining in the regular season while the High Hopes boast a comfortable 20 point bulge over the Lollipops . Things are a little closer in the men's leagues with the Ringers, who captured the "A" division last year, holding a five-point margin over the Rockets who lead Russ' Billiards by two points. The Ringers have 76 points while the Rockets and Billiards have 71 and 69 points respective- ly , . . The men's "B" league is quite a scramble with the Canadian Tire squad leading the Odd- fellows by one point and the Windmills by two. At present Canadian Tire has 68 points while the Oddfellows and Windmills have 67 and 66 points respectively . . Don't forget the Exeter Figure Skating Club's annual ice show at the lo- cal area this Saturday. The theme of this year's show, which features young skaters from Exeter and the surrounding area, is "Around the World" and features several numbers performed in cos- tumes representing other countries. Show time is 8 o'clock, in the first period to give the Towners a 3-0 lead and they never looked back. After a scoreless second per- iod Dusty Aldis notched the Combines first goal at the l3;30 mark of the last stanza and the Irish started to press but Gar Baker in the Seaforth net stood his ground to blank the Com- bines for the rest of the way. With.nothing to lose the Com- bines pulled goalie Keith Scar- borough out of the net with a little over a minute to play in the game but the move back- fired as McLaughlin scored his second goal of the night into the empty net at 19:23 to settle the issue. BOUNCE BACK The Combines forced the playing of the seventh and de- ciding game when they blanked Seaforth 5-0 in Lucan Friday night. Centre Barry Hearn, who scored a three-goal hat trick, and goalie Keith Scarborough were the Lucan sparkplugs in the rugged contest which pro- duced twenty minor penalties. The Irish scored twice in both the first and second frames and once more in the third period to register the first shutout in the OHA Intermediate ",El" series. Stu O'Neil opened the scoring at 6:04 of the initial stanza and Jack Campbell made it 2-0 at 10:37 and after thisHearnlook- ed after the rest of the scoring with two goals in the second period and one more in the third to put the game out of reach and force the seventh game of the series.

The Towners will now ad- vance to an OHA series against Orangeville. The Seaforth club built up a 3-0 first period lead and then both teams scored a goal in the third frame after a scoreless second period. Unlike the first six games of the series only five goals were scored as both goaltenders r e- ceived more protection than in previous tilts.
