Gerry Bradbury and Doug Queen scored for the homesters. A couple of quick goals in the first two minutes of play after the second rest of Gary Parsons and Morrissey gave the Hawks a 7-4 lead, their biggest of the hat trick for the Hawks and Greg Mason registered for Learn ington to keep the score close. Morrissey's fourth goal of the afternoon at 11.45 upped the score to 9-7 and three minutes later Scott Burton registered with a low drive from the blueline to in- sure the Exeter victory. game to that point. Just as quickly, in less than a minute Leamington were back in business on scores by Glen Adams and Elmer Jackson to again cut the Exeter margin to a single goal, Within the next four minutes of action, Chapman completed his producers In the playoffs to date, Dennis Morrissey, was in high gear in the border town and blinked the red light four times. Each club scored twice in the first twenty minutes of play and the Hawks moved into a 5-4 lead after the second session. Craig Chapman and Morrissey tallied for Exeter while Fred McKeen and Vic Hebert replied for Leam- ington. In the second session Chapman and Morrissey repeated their first period performances and chalked up a 10-7 win over the home club in the first game of a best-of-seven OHA quarter final Series. The Hawks were flying high and took 43 shots at Bill Salisbury in theLeamington net while Exeter's Tom Glavin faced a total of 33 shots. The game was close from the opening whistle and as late as the halfway mark of the third period the Hawks were only up by 8-7. One of the club's top goal The Exeter Hawks didn't have Much luck in the 011A committee rooms this week, but as it turned Out they didn't need it. They proved all they had to where it really counts — on the ice; However, the week's action did create some unusual cir- cumstances for them. Here's what happened. —On Friday they whipped the Dresden Kings 9-8 to apparently wrap up the Shamrock final with a 4-1 margin in the final series. —On Sunday they tackled Leamington and ended up with a 10-'7 win in the opener of a best-of-seven OHA quarter-final with that entry. — However, after that win they learned that Dresden had pro- tested the Friday game and at a meeting of an OHA committee on Monday, the Dresden protest over a referee's error was up- held and the Hawks' win was wiped out. —The game was replayed Tuesday and the Hawks posted a convincing 6-2 win over Dres- den and they will now continue their series with Leamington, with their initial win still count- ing. The second game in the series goes at the local arena this Fri- day with the third one in Leaming- ton Sunday and the fourth back in Exeter Tuesday. • Hawks win but lose on on ice, protest goal at 19.41 of the last frame. Actually, young was still in the penalty box when the game ended and had served four seconds more than necessary. To further confuse the situa- tion, Dennis Morrissey who re- ceived the late five minute sent- ence vacated the penalty box at 19.41 on instructions from the penalty timekeeper, SIBIERLINEti J} . .

POST DEFENCE While the protest was strictly on the referee's calls, the Hawk club was forced to put in a defence along with a cheque for $50. In- cidentally, the money was return- ed to the local executive. A three man protest committee made up of OHA executive mem- bers from Western Ontario ruled that the Dresden player serving the minor penalty should not have been ordered back to the box when the first Exeter goal was scored. The Hawks were represented at the London meeting by manager Lloyd Cushman, arena manager Alvin Willert and Derry Boyle and Bill Gilfillan, president and sec- retary, respectively, of the Ex- eter Minor Hockey Association, In the game itself, that was thrown out and replayed Tues- day, the 1,500 fans — with more than 400 of this number from the Exeter district — were treated to probably the most exciting hockey of the series. Dresden took an early lead and were in front 3-1 after the first period of play and main- tained the same edge until the late second period fracas. Captain Craig Chapman was the top Hawk goal producer with a hat trick to show for his night's work. Paul Young chipped in with a pair of markers while singles were added byGary Parsons, Bill Chipchase, Dennis Morrissey and Scott Burton. Burton's goal that was actually the winner in a game that wasn't won, came on a harmless pass from the corner back of the Dres- den net that bounced off at least two defenders and rolled over the line. A referee's decision in Exeter Hawks 9-8 win in Dresden Fri- day was reversed by an0HA sub- committee meeting in London, Monday night. Officials of the Dresden Kings filed an official protest with Bill Hanley, secretary-manager of the OHA early Saturday morning, over referee Gary Cummings' interpretation of a rule terminat- ing penalties when the opposing team scores. At 16.17 of the second period, with Dresden leading 5-3, one of their players received a five minute penalty and at 17.18 a teammate followed to the sin bin with a two minute sentence. With a two man advantage the Hawks swarmed to the attack and Bill Chipchase scored on the first rush down the ice. At this point the Dresden player that was off for two minutes returned to the ice but the officials chased him back. At 19.04, Craig Chapman flip- ped a loose puck home, only sec- onds after he had a goal called back. Chapman's goal tied the score at 5-5 and again the Dres- den player tried to return to ac- tion but was chased back. The Dresden protest alleged that the first Exeter goal by Chip- chase should have terminated the two minute penalty, Referee Cummings claimed that a major penalty coming be- fore the minor sentence prevent- ed the latter from returning to the ice when a goal is scored. Dresden's official protest was based on sections C and D of rule 28. This rule does not cover the exact situation and only refers to double minors or a major and minor being handed out to the same player and does not mention major and minor penalties to two different members of the same team, at different times in the game. The protest also stated that the referees were inconsistent in handling a similar situation in the third period when Exeter receiv- ed a couple of penalties. It listed Paul Young returning to the ice when Dresden scored their eighth MORRISSEY HOT Dennis Morrissey led the Hawks to their fifth frwin" over Dresden Tuesday when he bulged the twine on three occasions in the 6-2 verdict. The Hawks really "came to play" and despite the fact they sat out 13 penalties compared to the six for Dresden, they were never in serious trouble. The penalties, all of the minor variety, had no effect on the scoring as all goals were scored with the two clubs at equal strength. A couple of quick goals near the midway mark of the first period put the Hawks out in front and they never looked back. Paul Young started the counting as he converted a pass from Mor- rissey into the Dresden net at 9.01. Only a minute later, captain Craig Chapman finished off a three-way passing effort with Mike Cushman and Scott Burton to give the Exeter boys a 2-0 edge as they headed for the first rest period. Early in the second session, Gary Parsons let go a blistering slap shot from well outside the Dresden blueline that eluded goalie Bill Goddard and upped the score to 3-0. The home club hit the score sheet for the first time at 13.34 of the period as Tom Payne beat Exeter's cage custodian T o m Glavin for the first time on a close in shot with assistance from Clark Woolman and Fred Mar- tin. With less than four minutes to go in the second, Morrissey caught fire and scored twice to put the skids under the Dresden six. Bill Chipchase provided the passing help on the first marker and Paul Young assisted on the other, Clark Woolman tried to revive the Dresden crew as he found the mark at 7.48 of the closing session with the assists going to Andy Jones and Roy Boyes. The Hawks, with a three goal lead going into the final ten minutes of play, kept carrying the play to Dresden and were again rewarded as Dennis Mor- rissey completed his evening's hat trick at 18.53. Every member of the local junior crew was out and skating freely all night and with good backstopping by Tom Glavin when the opposition were in close, were in command most of the sixty minutes of exciting action. The Canadian national hockey team, losing at least one hockey game and being forced to set- tle for a tie 'in another in World play in Vienna during the past week by apparent bad calls from officials, have nothing on the Exeter Hawks in junior "C" playoffs. Apparent winners of the final Shamrock se- ries on the strength of a 9-8 win in Dresden, Friday, the Hawks have been forced to resume the series as a Dresden protest was upheld by an OHA pro- test committee, In a move that is a complete reversal from normal procedure, the body that handles hockey in the province failed to back their officials on the ice. We were at the last game in Dresden and feel quite strongly that the locals "have been had", but good. The fact the game has to be replayed is not so bad as the fact that if the series goes the limit, five games would be played in Dresden and only three in Exeter. Where all the fuss was started was at 17:36 of the second period and in our opinion this is when the game should be resumed. The score would be 5-4 for Dresden, but the Hawks would have a one man advantage for about four minutes as a Dres- den player received a major sentence shortly be- fore the incident. The whole matter stems over whether a Dresden player getting a minor penalty shortly aft- er a teammate got a five minute sentence should come on the ice when Exeter scored to make the score 5-4. As the referees ruled, he remained in the box and the locals scored again to tie the count. Apparently the protest •outcome was fairly cut and dried as the Leamington club, scheduled to play the second game of a semi-final series in Exeter Tuesday, were notified some time Monday, before the protest meeting was held, that their trip to Exeter would be called off for the time being. NHL BACKS OFFICIALS Despite the handling of the Exeter-Dresden protest by the OHA in failing to uphold the ref- eree's decision, the NHL last week took steps to back their officials. The club owners voted to let referee-in-chief Scotty Morrisson have a free hand in making the playoff assignments. In the past few weeks, New York Ranger officials and president Bill Jennings in particular, have openly announced that they wouldn't have John Ashley handle any more of their games. In, fact, in one communique it was said the Blueshirts would protest any contests han- dled by Ashley. The New York complaints were on situations that Ashley said he didn't see and were of such nature that this is quite possible. One was a stick thrown on the ice to Red Hay of Chicago after his had broken and the other involved an apparent seventh Boston Bruin on the ice in a recent game. Apparently it isn't only in Exeter where things are thrown on the ice. Only a week ago in Maple Leaf Gardens, Stafford Smythe hurled a pro- gram leeward that caught referee Art Skov in the face. The local incident we referred to was the egg throwing during a Hawk-Point Edward game of a few weeks ago. After warnings, the local fans have behaved well and we're quite sure they will continue in this manner. PLENTY OF SHOTS The goal tenders were the busiest fellows in the Leamington arena Sunday as the Exeter Hawks SUCKERS ARE RUNNING! Now that the weatherman has begun to smile a little on this part of the •country, we're into the season when sporting attractions get a bit entwined. While hockey is still in the limelight, the big league ball players are well on their way with spring training and will be into regular play by the middle of April. One of the best signs of spring is the word this weekend that the suckers are running and area fishermen are lining the river at Grand Bend in pur- suit of the first breed of fish to show each year. At the same time a release from the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests arrived on our desk listing the various fishing seasons and regula- tions. Locally, fishermen will be able to try for pike and pickerel in the early morning of May 13 while the counties of Middlesex and Lambton are among those having no closed season on these species. While talking of sucker fishing, which is quite popular in the creeks and streams of this area, we could possibly clear up a few points regarding the equipment that can be used. Regulations covering this particular part of the country state that in the Counties of Lambton and Middlesex coarse fish and pike may be taken by means of a spear or dip-net in the months of March and April. In other parts, including Huron county, coarse fish, which includes suckers may be taken by spear during April and May and by means of a dip-net during the months of March, April and May. Another popular fish, the smelt, can be taken by clip-net or seine at night during March, April and May. A dip-net shall not exceed six feet by six feet if angular, or six feet in diameter if circular. In district four, which includes Huron and most of the 'counties to the north and east, the trout season opens on April 29 and bass season on June 24. For most waters in this district the trout sea- son closes on September 15, but the Bayfield and Maitland rivers are included in a group of special rivers having an extension. The Bayfield, in the townships of Goderich and Stanley from Highway 4 southwesterly to Lake Huron and the Maitland in Goderich and Colborne townships from Highway 21 westerly to Lake Huron can be fished for rainbow trout only until Novem- ber 30. HALF RIGHT With the National Hockey League regular season concluding this week, we took a quick glance back at our predictions in November and believe HS the glance was rather rapid. Back in November, probably eager from our World Series predictions, we guessed that the six NHL clubs would finish something like this: Mon- treal, Chicago, Boston, Detroit, Toronto and New York.
