Winners of the nine o'clock draw were the Alvin Pym Skipped rink. From the left, Alvin Pym, George Busche, Bill Dougall and Bill Lamport. T-A photo Rec loop is tough Winners become losers scored twice to raise his season total to 25 and a four-goal bulge on runner-up Larry Stire, Jim McDonald has accumulated 19 goals, good for third spot and Pete McFalls follows with 17, in a similar effort in the final stanza. The Bankers moved into a 3-1 first period lead and were never in serious trouble. Larry Stire, Bill Heywood and Lloyd Moore were responsible for the "monied men" marksmanship while Earl Wagner tallied for the Old Timers. Jones and Bourne accounted for all of the middle frame goal accounting as the Bankers moved in front 6-3, In the closing session, Virgil McNab and Peter McFalls notch- ed their only scores of the con- test while Stire and Jones added to their totals in single fashion for the winners. A pair of goals from the stick of Jim Morrissey in the early minutes of the opening period enabled the Crediton Tigers to move on to their 8-1 romp over Graham and Graham in the sec- ond half of the double bill, Fred Lamb and Scotty Re- gier, playing his first game of the season, also chipped in with two goals each to aid the Cred- iton cause. Glen Overholt and Jack Conlin chipped in with singletons to aid the Crediton cause. Frank Clarke fired the only G&G marker to avoid a shut- out and also kept his record of scoring at least one goal a game alive. The Exeter Hawks strength- ened their hold on second spot in the Shamrock junior loop with a 10-6 win over the tough Bel- mont Hatters in Belmont, Satur- day. The two points from the latest win gives the Hawks a total of 29 points, five back of the lead- ing Dresden Kings and a six point edge on the third place Port Huron Beefeaters. Dresden shut-out Port Huron 4-0 in a Friday contest. A scheduled contest at the local arena, Friday with the Al- vinston Flyers supplying the op- position was called off because of bad weather. Point Edward Redmen will be in town Friday night to do battle with the Hawks at the arena at 8:30. Only six games remain on the schedule for the local jun- iors and their chances of finish- ing in at least second place appear bright. Mike Cushman of the Hawks continues to lead the Shamrock point race with a total of 68, but is being hard pressed by Len Fontaine of Point Edward who is only one point back. In the Belmont contest, t h e Hawks spotted the home club an early one goal lead and then retaliated quickly to take a 3-1 margin into the second session and were never headed. Brian Patterson put the Bel- mont squad out in front with a goal at the seven minute mark and less than a minute later Gary Parsons had knotted the count on a play with Craig Chap- man and Pete Lawson. Within the next two minutes the Exeter boys had scored two more. Lawson and Scott Burton were responsible for the local scoring. The assist on Burton's goal was engineered by Rick McDonald and Grant Walker. Parsons was back with an un- assisted effort as the result of a blistering slap shot from the blue line within 25 seconds of the drop of the puck in the second stanza to up the Exeter lead to 4-1, Belmont battled back near the midway mark, getting goals from Ross Horton and Norm Abbey to cut the Hawk margin to a single goal. In the last five minutes of the second, goals came thick and fast. The Hawks scored three times with the homesters re- plying on one occasion. Parsons fired his third and fourth markers of the game and Scott Burton upped his game total to two for the Exeter boys. Abbey, with his second of the contest, was on the triggering end of the Belmont marker. The final period saw the local juniors maintain their margin of victory by outscoring the Belmont boys 3-2. Craig Chapman hit the mark on two occasions and defenceman Larry Willer t contributed a single to finalize the Hawk tally- ing. Howard Churchill and Lynn Leslie finished the scoring for the losers. PROLIFIC SCORING Four-goal performances by a player from each side featured Thursday's opener in which the Bank Boys were victorious 10-5. Bob Jones fired the quartet of markers for the Bankers, three of them coming in the second period. Terry Bourne toiling for the Old Timers found the range on two occasions in the second session and turned Anything can happen in the Exeter Rae hockey league and it usually does. In a complete re- versal of form, the two clubs that were on the wrong end of the scores a week ago, bounced back to ring up convincing wins in Thursday's regular twin bill at the arena. In the first half of the double- header, the Bank Boys not only doubled the score on the Old Timers, 10-5, but moved on even terms with them for second place. Each team now has a season point total of 12. The league leading Crediton Tigers, entering the second con- test with a slim one point lead, slaughtered Graham and Graham 8-1 to open their first place margin to three points. Despite the fact 24 goals were scored in the latest doubleheader, very little change was created in the league scoring race. Fred Lamb of the leading Crediton six Hairpins in front in Legion darts The Hairpins collected a total of five points in Friday's weekly action of the Exeter Legion mixed dart league to increase their season total to 57. This gives the Pins' a four- point bulge over the runner-up Dart Sharks, the largest margin any team has been able to build up in the season to date. The Itchy Four have a solid grip on third spot with a point total of 52, while the Cleaners hold down fourth place with 47 points. In individual scoring depart- ments, John Link and Marg Wragg hold the high single records with respective scores of 180 and 138, Friday's scores were as follows: Hairpins 5 - Shiphunters 0 Dart Sharks 3 - Bluebirds 2 Legionnaires 5 - Generals 0 Itchy Four 3 - Sharpshooters 2 Featherflights 4 - Cleaners 1 Canners 4 - Four B's 1 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 New leaders in men's curling A complete new set of leaders have emerged in the Exeter Men's curling club second draw. A rink skipped by Bev Alexander has moved to the top of the list of the Monday curlers with a total of 34 points. First place in Tuesday action is more than crowded with no less than four rinks having iden- tical point accumulations of 35. Bill McLean, King McDonald, Art Clarke and Charlie Smith have their crews in the four-way dead- lock. Another battle is underway in Thursday play where Jack Ur- quhart's rink has picked up a total of 42 points, one more than last week's leader Lorne Pass- more. Last week's scores were: J.

In third spot came a Hensall quartet headed by Ellen Knight that included Audrey Mc- Donald, Dorothy Marks and Val Gould, The Canadians have moved to the top in the standings with their win on Saturday over the Black Hawks 3-1, The scoring was divided among three play- ers, Les Murley, Noel Skinner, and Butch Johnston.

Rinks headed by Helen Frayne and Melva Ecker remain un- beaten after four weeks of action in Tuesday play. If each of the skips can take her rink through to victory this week the big show- down w ill occur the following Week when they meet head-on in the final games of the draw. All of Wednesday's compet- itors have met defeat at least on one occasion. The other un- defeated rink in second group action to date is one headed by Helen Burton in Thursday com- petition.

This is the first time the event comprising 24 district rinks has ever been handled by a small branch. In previous years it has been held in Kitch' ener or Guelph. The availability of ice at the Exeter and Cen- tralia curling clubs made it possible to hold the tour- ney locally. Nothing but praise was heard from the visiting rinks for the fine reception they received in Exeter. The credit for the successful bonspiel goes to president Stan Frayne, sports officer Howard Holtzman, ca-convener Lee Learn and the many Le- gion members who helped in transportation. The district title was won by a Seaforth rink skipped by John Patterson. They now move into the provincial finals in Sutton later in February against nine other district winners. The Sutton winner will represent Ontario in the national championships in North Bay, March 13- 17. Last year, for the first time in nine years of Dominion competition, a team from west of Ontario failed to win the national trophy. Not only did Garth Rafter's Montreal rink win the round-robin, their toughest competition came from Nova Scotia. The 1967 event bringing together the best of some 7,000 Legion curlers will mark the second time the championships have been held in Ontario. Cop- per Cliff was the site in 1958. FIGURE SKATERS PREPARE Members of the Exeter figure skating club are busily engaged putting the finishing touches to their annual carnival. This year's pageant entitled "Colourama" will be presented at the arena on Sat- urday, February 11 at 8 p.m. Each of the more than 90 members, young and old, will be displaying his or her talents in at least one act on the program. One of the feature attractions will be the ap- pearance of the Western Ontario men's senior skat- ing champion, Ron Shaver, He hails from Galt but skates out of the Hamilton-Stoney Creek club. CAN'T BE SAVED BY THE BELL Recent revised regulations to the Athletics Control Act of the province of Ontario will give the province one of the strongest and safest sets of box- ing rules in the world. Since the act was introduced 20 years ago, there has not been a single fatality and no serious injury has resulted from any bout held under the auspices of the Athletics Commissioner. These re- vised regulations are designed to maintain this en- viable safety record. One of the most significant changes concerns the knockdown at the end of a round. No longer will a boxer be saved by the bell except in the last round. If the bell sounds during the referee's count, the count will continue after the bell, except, of course, in the final round. The boxer shall be counted out if he has not risen by the count of 10. This is designed to prevent a dazed boxer returning for another round after being physically knocked out and will decrease the risk of injury to him. The minimum weight of gloves has been in- creased from five to eight ounces. Athletics Commis- sioner Mery McKenzie says that gloves have grad- ually increased in weight and padding since the bare-knuckle fight of John L. Sullivan and Jake Kil- rain in 1889. First, skinhype gloves gave way to big gloves which weighed from two to three ounces each. These were last used in 1903. With each increase in size, the possibility of injury to the boxer has been minimized. Another closely related change concerns the padding on the floor of the ring. Section 89 has been amended to increase the thickness of the padding from one inch to one and one-half inches. This will naturally reduce the risk of brain injury. A new clause has been added which requires boxers who are residents of Ontario to undergo an electroencephalographic examination to determine any brain damage when first applying for a boxing licence. Also, the commissioner may demand any boxer, such as one who has suffered a recent series of knockouts, to undergo the examination. The new regulations now also require that a boxer who has been knocked out during a bout shall be automat- ically suspended for 30 days. To help insure that the public will see a fight after it has been advertised and promoted, a revi- sion has been made requiring main bout contestants to pass a pre-medical examination from three to six days before a bout. This should allow sufficient time for a substitute to be contacted and signed if a boxer fails his medical. In the past, boxers have been known to fail their medical on the day of the fight, thus causing a cancellation or postponement. To ensure that a boxer does not lose a fight, although not seriously hurt, when knocked out of the ring and off the ring apron, the time for re• entry has been extended from 10 to 18 seconds. This Condition is in effect in most boxing jurisdictions and covers situations where a boxer may be hindered by chairs, cables and maybe even spectators. Two other improvements have been incorpo- rated. One requires that a professional referee must pass a medical examination once a year in order to obtain a licence. The other stipulates that a pro fight. er from outside the province must produce a licence from the jurisdiction of his residence before he can fight in Ontario. Six new features have been incorporated in the rules governing amateur boxing to improve safety conditions surrounding the sport. The changes regarding the knockdown et the bell, the thickness of floor padding, the 18 second rules for re-entry to the ring and the annual medical checkup for the referee will be the same is in the professional ranks. The weights of gloves for amateurs will be in- creased to 10 Ounces from the present eight. A new regulation in the amateur rules empowers the chief second of a boxer to instruct the referee to stop the bout at anytime and concede defeat. This pro- vision decreases the chances of a serious injury to a fighter who is outclassed by his opponent, LADIES BONSPIEL The old adage that (+expel', lance is the best teacher" was dertainlY Proven at the Bxeter ladies/ open curling bonspiel at the local club last week.
