That's why advertising is so indispensable Hello again! muinuomoniiiiiiiiiiiniliiiiiiltonimainimiliiiiiiiitimiliiiiimiininnitumiliciimmunnomin = _ = =— _ . = This is our first week back as. Sports Editor and it is certainly nice to renew acquaintances with all of the fine people who organize, coach and par- ticipate in the many sporting endeavours. We will be renewing our contacts with the people that we know are connected with sports. If there are others or anyone that has any information we will be glad to hear from you with scores and results and of course upcoming events. Any news pertaining to sports can be left at The T-A office or at my home in Crediton during the evenings. As Jim Russell mentioned in this column last week, the upcoming Easter Week will again feature many minor hockey tournaments. During the past years we have attended some of these tourneys and know that if any fans have a day or even a few hours to spare, a trip to Goderich, Brampton, Georgetown or Port Huron will be well worth your while. Another Exeter minor hockey team that has 5011 of been hidden in the background is a group of seven and eight-year-olds known officially as the Tykes or as one of the mothers called them the Twerps. This gallant band of hockey hopefuls, while not getting into the Easter tournament battle, are getting their first taste of actual hockey competition in various exhibition contests. Coached by Larry Wil- lert and Bob McDonald these youngsters won the Consolation trophy at the annual Tykes event at RCAF Clinton earlier in the year, They lost the first game of the series to Oakridge Acres and then came back with consecutive wins over Zurich and RCAF Clinton, to bring home the silverware. The last men- tioned victory was a 1-0 count in overtime. They played their last game of the season Saturday night losing to Oakridge of London by a 6-1 score. This London team of youngsters is managed by John "Bunny Bundle" Dickens. Speaking of hockey tournaments, one of a slightly different version was held at Treasure Is- land Gardens in London a few weeks back. Spon- sored by the Stoneybrook Club of London, the sec- ond annual ACA Pee Wee tourney was held with 24 teams participating in a single game each. Contrary to most events, winning was not the most important factor in deciding a winner. As the letters ACA spell out, ability, conduct and appearance were the main requisites in compiling the largest number of points. Local Arena manager Alvin Willert was a member of the panel of judges who assessed the merits of the various teams competing. Alvin and three other judges were given the task of evaluating the teams in the attitude, deportment and dress cate- gories. This included the cleanliness of the uniforms, and if the sweaters were matched. Points were also given for all members of the club wearing helmets, mouth guards and ankle guards. Sticks were to be of the proper length and taped in a satisfactory man- ner. Teams were also checked for encouraging their goalies before the game started and when the op- position scored. Players' reaction to a penalty and their atti- tude towards their coaches when lines were changed and somebody else sent out for action were checked. In turn, the coaches were watched as to how they employed their roster of 15 players and the methods used in organizing power plays and in defending when their own club was shorthanded. A team sponsored by the Toronto Police De- partment was the eventual winner compiling a total of 82 points, one more than the close runner-up from St. Marys. Willert was impressed by the whole structure of this tourney that was operated in this unusual way and emphasized clean play and good sportsman- ship. The games themselves were played under more modified rules, somewhat similar to Olympic play with the scarcity of body checking.

The two clubs battled the last ten minutes with the score tied at 6-6 and the outcome was in doubt right down to the wire with Bob Baynham's winning goal de- ciding the issue with only 15 seconds remaining. Baynham's score, his second of the night, culminated a smart passing play. Hard working Red Loader dug the puck out of the corner back of the Bankers net and played it around to Terry Bourne, who flipped it back to the waiting Baynham about twenty feet in front of the net and the game was over. The score see-sawed back and forth most of the night in exciting action giving the spectators on hand plenty to cheer about.

Terry Bourne topped the Old Timers' scoring production, net- ting a hat trick. Single markers were chalked up by Ron Horne and Red Loader along with Bayn- ham's pair. Derry Boyle guided the Old Timers to the championship win from his coaching post at the bench after retiring from actual playing midway through the sea- son.

The stronger legs of the young- er Bankers showed to their ad- vantage in the middle stages of the contest and markers by Bill Hey- wood, Frank Boyle and Jim (9) Russell put the teams on even terms. Both clubs missed numerous scoring chances in the last ten minutes of play. The eventual hero, Bob Baynham was foiled twice by Vince Lassaline after being set in the clear by Loader and Bourne. At the other end of the rink, Larry Stire bounced a couple of shots off the goal post and cross bar. Incidentally, a youn ge r m ember of the Stire family, Glenn, regular net-minder of the Exeter Midgets guarded the Old Timers' net in the absence of regular Dick McFalls. The younger Stire turned in a steady effort in the nets allow- ing single goals to his brother lb. 17 YOUR DOG WILL LOVE THIS TREAT 4 Exeter girls pass figure skating tests Exeter Frozen Foods 502 Main S. 235.0400 436 MAIN STREET (519.235-2940) EXETER, ONTARIO the local club, Judy Estey com- pleted her first figure test and the junior bronze dance routine.

This listed a hockey school that will be held at Haliburton from July 2 to September 3 known as "Haliburton Hockey Ha- ven". The operators of this camp have put together a combination of youth and experience in selecting their instructors. Handing out tips on net minding will be rookie cage custodian of the Boston Bruins, youthful Bernie Parent, Pairing up back at the blue-line will be vet- eran Bill Gadsby and Oshawa's junior sensation, Bobby Orr. Norm Ullman, a top performer with the Red Wings will take care of the coaching duties in connection with the forwards along with two of the Maple Leafs' brightest young stars, Ron Ellis and Brit Selby.
