The inability to stay out of the penalty box was costly to the Hawks in Friday's loss to Point Edward, Leading 5-3 with less than seven minutes to go the lo- cals were twice called for in- fractions and had a player in the sin bin when the visitors scored twice to send the game into an extra period, Exeter Hawks blew a two-goal lead late in the third period on home ice Friday and lost 6-5 to Point Edward Redmen in over- time to come close to the brink of elimination in the Shamrock junior semi-finals. The Hawks, winners of the first game in Exeter a week ago, lost by another 6-5 score in Point Edward Thursday to fall behind two games to one in a three-of- five series. All three games to date in the set have gone into an extra ten minute overtime period. The fourth game will be played in Point Edward tonight, Thurs- day, and the locals must win to stay in contention. If they can pull out a win, the fifth and de- ciding contest goes at the Exeter REMINGTON WINCHESTER ITHICA MOSSBURG COOFY SAVAGE MARLIN STEVENS MEC LOADERS START FAST The fast moving Point Edward club moved out in front quickly with two goals in the first seven minutes of play. Mike Bolton, the Point's top scorer with three markers to his credit for the night, opened the scoring at 2.38 with the assist going to the league's top scorer Len Fontaine. Bolton also fired the tying :ounter at 16.29 of the third period and whacked in the winner in the extra ten minutes of play, Merle Witherow, a midge t moved up to junior ranks scored the second Point marker of the first session before the Hawks got untracked and found the scor- ing range. Gary Parsons brought the home crowd to their feet for the first time blasting in a slap shot near the 14 minute mark on a neat passing play started by 1 i n e- mates Craig Chapman and Mike Cushman. A solo effort by Paul Young only two minutes later was suc- cessful in bulging the visitors' right back with his second score of the night to again put his team in front at 3.35. Chapman duplicated his second period score near the halfway mark and the teams were again even. Two minutes later, Wayne Timmington found the range and the score was 5-4 for the home- sters. parsons blasted in the Hawks fifth goal at 16.29 with Cushman and Chapman helping out to send the game into overtime. Bill Chivers sent the fans home happy as he fired the winner with less than two minutes to go in the extra period. Exeter defenceman Larry Wil- lert was injured in the early min- utes of the game and was not in action in the third game here Friday. X-rays have shown muscles torn at the top of his hip and it is improbable that Willert will be able to dress for the fourth game in Point Edward. Evenings Only Mon. — Fri.

Exeter 235-1907 SHAMROCK JR. eC PLA YOFFS If the Exeter Hawks win in Point Edward tonight (Thursday) the fifth and deciding game of the series will be played at the Exeter Arena on Friday, March 10 at 8:30 p.m. it1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111118111111111111111111111111111111111011111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111te Change of Barbers Last week we mentioned the various tourna- ments that will be available to minor hockey teams during the upcoming Easter holidays. Before the holidays, one of a slightly different nature will be held at Treasure Island Gardens in Lon- don for pee wee age teams. Sponsored and arranged by the Stoneybrook Sports Association, 24 district teams will be competing in the third annual ACA tourney, this Sunday. Each of the competing teams will play only one game in this series where you can win and still lose or vice versa. This may sound a little strange but the basic idea is to de-emphasize winning and stress that ability, conduct and appearance are even more important as far as these twelve-year-olds are concerned. The Exeter pee wees under the tutelage of Bill Gilfillan will be meeting Mountsfield in a contest this Sunday afternoon at 3:10 p.m. A panel of 12 judges, one of which will be local arena manager Alvin Wil- lert, will assess the points to decide a champion. The judges will have a total of 100 points that can be awarded, broken down as follows: ability 55 points, conduct 18 points and appearance 12 points. The game result is only worth 10 points and another five goes to the team getting the most shots on goal during each particular game. Three points will be de- ducted for each penalty and "display of temper". From this, it would seem that a team could win quite handily and still skate off the ice with a point deficit. A breakdown in the official instructions to judges on conduct shows exactly what the organizers had in mind. Points will be assessed or deducted for the fol- lowing: "Good pre-game warm-up drill encouragement of own goalie before the game begins, bench behav- iour of team and coaches and complete team attitude towards fellow players." Also, players' attitudes towards their oppo- nents, whether their play is cleanly aggressive, chippy or dirty. Respect shown the referees during actual play will be watched closely along with players' re- actions when goals are scored against them. Finally, under conduct, players' actions in congratulating their opponents at the completion of play will be judged. Appearance includes condition and cleanliness of uniforms and whether all players are wearing the proper protective equipment. Under this section also, judges will be checking the condition of the boys' hair- cuts. Under ability, there is this significant section on depth of team: Does third line get reasonable share of ice time? Does third line show up well with rest of team, revealing time spent with younger or poorer players? Is the team well balanced? Underlined here, in a very positive sense, is an attempt to cure many of the maladies and excesses that haunt minor hockey. Bob Galpin, one of the tour- nament organizers has this to say: "With criticism being pronounced periodically by some parents on busy minor hockey schedules .and tournaments, our aim is to present a different approach to competi- tion." Obviously, continued events of this order would lose their intrigue, but it would be good if every minor club could participate at least once a year in something of this nature to emphasize the essentials of what minor hockey SHOULD be about. After all, one of the basic reasons for allowing youngsters to play competitive sport is to teach them to accept defeat gracefully. It is only one part of growing up to become a man. net and tying the score at 2-2 as the clubs headed for the first rest break. In the second twenty minutes of action, the home town juniors dominated the fast moving action and outscored the Redmen 2-1 to take a one goal edge into the third period. ognotaihe wfitrth- alie pmgano aheadw as ingCreanidg oCf ht defenceman Bill Bourne setting up the play at 6.30. It only took the Point Edward six two minutes to get back on even terms with Bill Chivers flipping the rubber past Tom Glavin in the Exeter cage. It took only another three min- utes of action to put the Hawks back in front again. This time hard working Dennis Morrissey was in the right place at the right time to direct the puck that was sent goalward by young and Bourne. A goal from the stick of Bill C hipchase early in the third stanza put the locals two goals up and seemingly in command of the situation. Persistent backchecking paid off for the Exeterites until the clock swung into the last six minutes of play. With Gary Parsons sitting out a seven minute violation, Fon- taine brought his club to within one of even terms with a clever goal at 14.10. Grabbing the puck in the corner to the side of the Exeter net, he faked a pass-out bringing a defender to his knees, and then moved quickly in front to back hand the puck into the twine. Bolton fired the equalizer with less than three minutes to go with Dennis Morrissey cooling off for a tripping call. Morrissey's at- tempt in trying to catch Chivers on a breakaway ended in the pen- alty but probably saved an almost sure goal at the time. In overtime action, both teams had numerous scoring chances with both goalies coming up with good stops to keep their clubs in the running, before Boitonput the game in the bag for Point Edward. A crowd of 681, the best of the season, was on hand to watch the exciting brand of playoff action. Lions best in Kin curling A contingent of curlers from the Exeter Lions club walked off with the major prize at the open bonspiel sponsored by the local Kinsmen club over the weekend. Led by Norm Walper, the locals captured the second draw and won the overall championship with a higher plus than the Jim Fraser rink of Sarnia, first draw winners. Shown with their prizes are from left, Hugh Wilson, Norm Walper, Ray Murley and Mel Geiser. Kinsmen national president Hal Taggart of London was visitor at the spiel that drew entries from London, Stratford, Thedford, Sarnia, Wingham and Hensall. — T-A photo I am pleased to announce Mr. Gerry Rader as second barber in our shop.

First Rec playoff wins to Old Timers, Bankers We specialize in cutting hair correctly the way you like it A surprising show of power by a short handed club featured the first games of the semi- final rounds of the Exeter Rec hockey league at the arena, Thursday. With only eight players in the line-up, the third place finish- ing Old Timers knocked off the league winning Crediton Tigers 9-3. In the second half of the weekly twin bill, the league runner-up Bank Boys outlasted Graham and Graham 13-9 in a free scoring affair. The second games in each two-of-three series go at the arena to-night, Thursday, with the Bank Boys and G 8a G meet- ing in the opener at 8:00 and the Gerry Smith Barber Shop OVERTIME AGAIN The trend of the game in Point Edward was quite similar to the Friday contest here. In each case the visiting team scored first in the game and then rallied in the dying moments to call for extra time. Away from home,::Mike Cush- man shot the Hawks in front 1-0 at the 13.05 mark of the first before Len Fontaine came roar- ing back with a pair of scores to send his team ahead 2-i head- ing into the second. In the next frame, the clubs matched single goals to keep the Redmen up 3-2 after forty min- utes of play. Fred Johnson notch- ed the Point Edward goal and Craig Chapman fired the Hawk score with Cushman providing the assist. The third period was wide open from start to finish with five goals going up on the scoreboard. The Hawks scored first with Gary Parsons being successful to tie the count at 3-3. Johnson was Old Timers and Crediton wind- ing up activities at 9:30. SET PACE With only six players dressed at face-off time and only two more coming later, the Old Tim- ers set a slow pace for the entire game and forced the Cred- iton boys to play it their way. When scoring chances were set up by the deliberate passing of the Old Timers led by veteran Red Loader, a younger perform- er was johnny-on-the-spot. Fred Wells was in scoring position on no less than five occasions to lead the Old Timers' scoring attack. The other goals for the winners were contributed in single fashion by Ron Bogart, Murray Brint- nell, Bob Baynham and Loader. Putting together the Crediton goal total were Pat McKeever, Bob Galloway and Eric Fink- beiner with s n gl e scoring ef- forts. 364 Main St. Exeter Itchy Four back in lead of Legion mixed darts BANKERS BLAST The fast moving Bank Boys went on their biggest scoring splurge of the season in hanging up the 13-9 win over Graham and Graham. Three top flight forwards shared the scoring spotlight for the winners. Pete McFalls fired a quartet of markers to lead the attack with Jim Russell and Larry Stire chipping in with hat trick performances each. Bob Jones found the range twice and Lloyd Moore was suc- cessful on one shot. Jim McDonald and Don Grah- am led G & G in a losing cause, each netting the rubber twice. Adding scores in single style were Tom Watt, Jack Glover, Craig Davidson, Doug McBride and Walt Tiedeman. The complete doubleheader was played with only two pen- alties being called, both being assessed to Crediton in the first contest. With only one set of games left in the regular schedule in the Exeter Legion mixed dart league, the battle for first place has narrowed to two clubs. One of the top clubs through the complete season, the Dart Sharks, were blanked 5-0 by the Cleaners in Friday's weekly action and have fallen out of contention for, the lead, The Itchy Four gained three points to move into the lead with a grand total of 69 points. The Hairpins, gaining only a single point, dropped into the runner- up spot, one point back of the "scratchers", The Sharks follow with a 64 point total and the Cleaners have made a quick move into fourth with 61 points to their credit. Friday's scores were: Featherflights 5 - Generals 0 Cleaners 5 - Dart Sharks 0 Bluebirds 4 - Hairpins 1 Shiphunters 4 - Sharpshooters 1 Legionnaires 3 - Canners 2 Itchy Four 3 - Four B's 3 Single leaders in men's curling OFF TO SEEK WORLD TITLE The Canadian national hockey team is now in Europe and engaging in an exhibition series in prep- aration for the World championships in Vienna later in the month. A lot of hockey enthusiasts are wondering about the chances our club has of regaining the world title. Victories in the Centennial competition in Win- nipeg in January and the Walter Brown tournament earlier don't insure a return to the world champion- ship throne, but it makes the chances a little more promising. Despite wins by 5-3 over Czechoslovakia and 5-4 against Russia on Canadian ice, the going will be a lot tougher when the chips come down on March 20. At least some of the games will be played on open air ice sheets and along with European referee- ing, will cause a few hazards for the Canadians. Reports of the first exhibition game, Sunday, in which our National club held the favored Czechs to a 4-4 tie was favorable. This stalemate was accom- plished with at least three regular performers, Paul Conlin, Roger Bourbonnais and Gary Begg absent due to university studies. The three will fly later to com- pete in the world championships. Regardless of their performance in the upcom- ing title scramble the Canadian club has accomplished one feat. They have beaten their home-grown skeptics that said the plan originated by Father David Bauer geared at the 1968 Olympics wouldn't work. The boys directed by Bauer and coach Jackie McLeod have be- come a film part of the Canadian sports scene. Indications of this are to be found in a report that Max Bell, Red Dutton and John Wintermeyer have undertaken to see the Nationals have the where- withall — money, that is -- to remain attractive to young athletes. Trust funds are being established to provide financial assistance to promising young puck chasers to continue their education while representing their country in world hockey competition. We look for the best Canadian showing in world competition since they last brought home a title in 1961 and with a small smile from lady luck might be able to turn the trick. The addition of Carl Brewer will certainly strengthen the blueline brigade. Brewer's vast ex- perience in the NHL and his competitive spirit has to be a factor in our team's chances. An already steady goal tending brigade is also being fortified by the acquisition of Seth. Martin from the British Columbia senior league. Martin, a main- stay of many former Canuck clubs is considered to be one of the finest puck stoppers in World and Olym- pic competition, Changes in the leaders of the Exeter men's curling club third draw are the rule rather than the exception. For the first time in the three week existence of the current draw, one skip has a clear cut majority at the top of each of the three divisions. Jim Hewitt moved his four- some to the top of the heap in Monday play and King McDonald has his rink in sole possession Of first spot in Tuesday action. Thursday's leading rink is headed by Jack Urquhart. The current leader moved ahead of the Passmore brothers who were tied in first a week ago. Last week's scores were: S.
