Gordie Howe.. who continues to amaze everybody with his steady year in and year out performances with the Detroit Red Wings has two sons that look to sure-fire minor league material. The Howe boys, Mark and. Marty appeared with a Detroit midget team in. Mitchell last weekend and were standouts. In a Saturday evening game, the Detroit midget club drubbed the Mitchell squad 15-2 so officials die Perth County club decided to strengthen their forces for a second game on Sunday. Inserted in to the line-up were five members of 1Rst year's Mitchell Hawks that ousted our local j.unior Hawks in provincial competition. Rick and Randy Heinbuch, Dennis Hughey, Bob Powell and Don Vipond. joined the current midget team and were still on the short end of a 12-3 score, In each game the Howe boys scored a couple of goals to lead their team's powerhouse. The elder Howe breaks a record every time he skates onto the ice and each time he gets a goal or an. assist. We were fOrtunate to be in Detroit Thursday night when Gordie scored his 20th goal of the current NHL campaign. At the time of writing he has a lifetime record of 708 goals and 934 assists for a total of 1642 points. His nearest opposition in the all-time scoring race, Jean Beliveau of the Canadiens has .a little better than 1,050 points. Howe will celebrate his 41st birthday on March 31 of this year and at the rate he and his sons are going it's quite possible the Red Wings could have a father and son combination in the not too distant future. Gordie's goal Thursday night gave him a 20 goal or more record for 20 consecutive seasons. He broke- in with the Red Wings in the 1946-4? season at the age of IS and scored seven goals in 58 games. The next season he picked up 16 tzOals in 60 games. followed with 12 scores in only 40 games in 1948-49 and started the long string with 35 goals the next season. Howe's best scoring, years were from 1950 to 1953 when he scored 43, 47 and 49 goals respectively and led the league in scoring and was twice named the league's most valuable player. Carnival Coming Up The annual carnival presented by the Exeter Figure Skating club has been scheduled for Saturday. February 22 at the Exeter arena. This .year's extravaganza is entitled "Spring Time '69" and will feature everyone of the more than 100 boys and girls registered with the local program. Mrs. Faye- McDonald is again the club professional and top notch guest skaters are being lined up for the. event. Due to a greater number of senior skaters, classes are being held for a couple of hours on Saturdays in addition to the regular hours each Monday. In order to finance this extra ice and practice time, officials of the club are holding a dance at the Legion Hall this Saturday night with Tom Noyes and the Suburbans supplying the music. Tickets are available from any member of the local figure skating, group. More On 'Big Week Saturday is the beginning of Minor Hockey Week across Canada and although the local observance was held several weeks ago w, e would like to add a little further information on minor hockey. Our support of all minor hockey ventures will be appreciated every week of the year. Minor Hockey Week in Canada is one of several worthwhile projects of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, and as a result of the .C.A.H.A.'s promotion, volunteer workers across the country are being told their work is appreciated. Some are being made the recipients of testimonial scrolls and plaques, but all are included in the general paeans of praise heard across the nation this big week of minor hockey. Although the recognition of the volunteer organizers, coaches, manag.ers, car drivers and fund-raisers is one of the most important objectives of Minor Hockey Week. it is not the only one. Another is to "focus attention on minor hockey.- This we gladly. do. We do so because we agree that minor hockey is an important part of our community life. It is an integral part of the fabric of our community and a major part of the sporting activities of our municipality. We agree it is beneficial to the youngsters. and because it is, it is beneficial to the whole community. We agree in addition to building stronger bodies. minor hockey contributes to the development of better citizens while it is keeping them occupied in a worthwhile endeavour — right at an age when many of them might easily be engaged in pursuits much less acceptable to society. The statistics issued by the C.A.H.A. indicate yet another reason for supporting minor hockey and editorializing in favour of Minor Hockey Week. The C.A.H.A. minor hockey committee points out .that minor hockey is an activity that, not only works for the youngsters, but provides work for many adults and in addition turns back to the Canadian economy more than rive million dollars every year. The costs of providing sweaters. skates. and other equipment (much safety equipment is now compulsory). the cost of ice rentals. transportation, meals after games. injury insurance.. are items that soon run up into many dollars per player. and hundreds of dollars per team. Considering there are more than twelve thousand minor hockey teams in Canada, it is not difficult to visualize millions of dollars being spent to keep the operation going. So it is we realize every one benefits. from minor hockey - truly IT IS good for the community. These are sortie of the reasons why we are happy to "Keep in Step with. Canada- - by supporting Minor Hockey Week. We urge our readers to do likewise. The South kinror. High School vvrest ling team continues to knock Over the opposition with eeinsiseeney.
