The Exeter Times-Advocate, 1969-03-13, Page 6second tallies of the night and Bob Pinter checked in with a single scoring play. The last ten minutes of the second was just as productive as the first with five more goals being chalked up. Craig Chapman and Dennis Morrissey were the Crediton goal getters while George Nahrgang, Bob Gropp and Collings replied for the Four Wheel Drives. Captain Murray Kerr scored the final Milverton goal of the night at the .45 second mark of the final period and Bill Chipchase fired two more Crediton counters to run his night's output to four. A total of 16 penalties, nine to Milverton were handed out by referees Doug O'Brien and Jim Bedard of Zurich. Paul Young was called for six of the seven Crediton infractions. COME FROM BEHIND Four unanswered goals in the last period of play enabled the Tigers to down the Four Wheel Drives in Milverton Thursday by a count of 8-6. The Milverton team had scored the same amount of goals late in the second session to go in front 6-4. Glenn Overholt, Terry Bourne and Craig Chapman scored in the first period to give the Tigers a 3-1 lead. Murray Kerr was the lone Milverton marksman. In the second period the procedure was reversed with the Four Wheel Drives counting five times with only a single reply from the Crediton side of the scoreboard. The Milverton middle frame scoring spurt was achieved on single goals by Dave Murray, George Nahrgang, Ed Erb, Murray Kerr and Tom Collings. The Crediton counter was notched by Bill Chipchase. In he final period Dennis Morrissey scored twice in the first six minutes of play to tie the score. Ken Fraser fired what proved to be the winning goal at 15.55 on a play started by Fred Lamb. Paul Young cinched the outcome with a score at 19.10 on a three-way passing effort with Dennis Morrissey and Bill Chipchase. The Crediton club was assessed 11 of the 16 penalties called. All were of the minor variety. Anybody can turn a corner on two wheels — once.

THE HOME OF GUARDIAN MAINTENACE Times-Advocate, March 13, 1949 FOR ALL GOOD SPORTS By Ross Haugh Off to convention Due to a clashing of the sports seasons our column this week is going to be a bit of a combination between baseball and hockey. The big league ball players are in full swing with spring training in Florida while hockey is still well underway. We will have the pleasure this weekend of attending the Ontario Baseball Association convention being held in Stratford. This is the first time for quite a few years that the convention has been held close to here. We know that several of the Huron-Perth clubs, Dashwood and Mitchell will have delegations and league president Bob Sadler and secretary John Livermore of Clinton never miss the annual event. The highlight of the three-day affair is the appearance of former Cleveland Indian star pitcher Bob Feller. Feller, who holds an American league record for strikeouts and is a member of Baseball's Hall of Fame will be the guest speaker at the windup banquet at noon on Sunday. We read only a day or two ago in the Sporting News where Feller was the starting pitcher for the American league Old Timers on February 22 in the annual March of Dimes charity game against former National League stars, The oldest player in either lineup was 75-year old Ed Roush who patrolled right field for the Nationals. Roush was able to come up with two hits, one of them a sharp single off the deliveries of Feller. This was probably the first time Feller ever gave up a hit to a great-grandfather. Buy Tickets By Computer Computers are becoming the North American way of life and now tickets for baseball games are being purchased by the way of electronic machines. The Los Angeles Dodgers become the fifth major league ball team that will sell reserved seats through Ticket Reservations Systems Inc., a nation-wide network of computerized electronic ticket offices. More than 120 TRS electronic box offices in Los Angeles and throughout the country will offer Dodger tickets. In addition, six of the computerized terminals will be at Dodger Stadium ticket windows handling both current and advance sales. Customers will be able to purchase the best available Dodger reserved seats on a first-come, first-served basis. The central computer for the Dodgers will memorize all available seats for every game. The inventory of tickets can be tapped by the remote units. If the available seats are satisfactory to the customer, the terminal operator pushes the "buy" key and the actual tickets are printed on the spot. The customer receives a bona fide ticket, not a reservation slip to be exchanged at the box office. Once the tickets are bought, the computer automatically removes the seats from the available list, so there is no question of a duplicate purchase at any other remote sales point. Timing The Pitcher Cleveland Indian officials are proceeding with plans to install a pitchometer, a device to show how much time the pitcher takes between each delivery. After fans in Cleveland voted overwhelmingly in favor of the clocks in a poll conducted by a Cleveland newspaper, general manager Gabe Paul promised to abide by their wishes. A total of 15,209 ballots were cast and those who favor the clock numbered 9,724 while5,485 replied with a negative answer. So, two pitchometers will be installed, one in right-centre field, the other in left-centre. Each clock will issue an audible and visual signal at the end of 20 seconds if, of course, the pitcher hasn't pitched in that period of time. The clocks will be operated electronically by the third base umpire. Bad year for referees The current National Hockey League season to date has been a rough one on referees and linesmen as far as injuries are concerned. Referee-in-chief Scotty Morrison reports 10 serious injuries plus Frank Udvari's car accident. "It's the worst season I can remember for officials being hurt and there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason for it," says Morrison. The year started darkly when the No. 1 referee Vern Buffey had to be helped off the ice early in the Red Wing game at Boston Gardens. Buffey sustained a leg injury when he was caught in a collision of players along the boards. Morrison was in attendance that night so he got into Buffey's gear and went in as a linesman with linesman Pat Shetler moving up to take over the refereeing chores. Since then Buffey's been hurt again. He was hit by Montreal's Ted Harris in a game in St. Louis and had to be carried off the ice with a chest and back injury. Fortunately, Morrison was again in the audience that night and because neither of the linesmen had much NHL experience, Scotty went in as referee.

EXETER ARENA Elmira Kings VS Exeter Hawks ELMIRA LEADS SERIES 3.2 ONE GAME TIED Elmira here Friday The Crediton Tigers moved to within one game of the southern division championship of the Western Ontario Athletic Association Intermediate "C" grouping with two consecutive wins over the Milverton Four Wheel Drives during the past week.

The fourth game was played at Centralia last night, Wednesday and if the Tigers were victorious, a best-of-seven series against the other division winner, either Shelburne or Kincardine could start at Centralia, Sunday night.

The Crediton club came up with a flurry of goals in the early moments of each of the first and second periods to take command of the contest. Ken Fraser, Fred Lamb and Chipchase each scored once before four minutes had elapsed in the first period. Before the first stanza came to a close, Milverton was on the score board as the result of goals fired by Tom Collings and Ron Kip fer. Again in the middle frame, the Tigers were quick to jump to the attack, scoring four times in the first half of action. Lamb, Fraser and Chipchase were each back with their that resulted in five goals. FIVE SHARE SCORING-4 . In the third period of Saturday's game, five merribers of the club each scored once in the third period to help their club to the much needed win to keep their playoff hopes alive. Ron Lindenfield, Pete Glover, Scott Litt, Randy Preszcator and Brad Klumpp were on the firing end of the successful Exeter shots. In addition Preszcator picked up two assists and single helping awards went to Peter Kleinstiver, Perry Stover, Pete Glover, Randy Gilfillan and Lindenfield. Randy Preszcator scored the only goal of the first period on an unassisted effort and Blenheim came back with three unanswered goals in the middle frame to take a 3-1 lead after two periods of action. Jim Buchan scored twice to lead the Blenheim attack while single scores were added by Rod McDougall and Mike Knott. FALTER IN THIRD A rash of penalties late in the third period caused the downfall of the Legion bantams in their opening game 8-5 loss to Blenheim, Friday. A 3.1 Exeter lead after two periods of play was accelerated to 5-1 midway through the final session when the Blenheim youngsters and Jim Buchan in particular caught fire. Buchan scored three goals late in the third period to tie the score and added the same amount of goals in the overtime period. Peter Kleinstiver scored the only goal of the first frame op a play originated by Perry Stover. In the second, Pete Glover scored from Peter Gill and Randy Gilfillan completed a three-way passing effort with Stover and Glover.

GUN REPAIR SERVICE WORK GUARANTEED TR1EBNER'S GUN SHOP 320 Huron St. W. Exeter Phone 285-1907 lorminurshamsinesimON•mmilommealoominwiemonmesOmmiliiiii The Exeter Hawks have forced a seventh game in the Ontario Hockey Association Junior "0" grouping semi-final with the Elmira Kings and they need a win to stay in contention and force an eighth contest. In three games over the past week, the Hawks were only able to come up with one point as the result of a 7.7 tie in Elmira, Tuesday. The Elmira club now leads the series three-games-to- two along with a tie and need only another draw to take the series, while the Hawks have to win the seventh game which will be played at the Exeter arena, Friday night at 8:30. After taking a one game edge in the series, the Hawks lost 6-4 in Elmira, Saturday and were nosed out 6-5 on home ice, Sunday afternoon before the largest crowd of the season, 758. Failure to get the right bounces early in the third period in Sunday's game here cost the Hawks a chance to take a lead in the set, that was originally set for seven games. They came close many times and bounced several shots off the goal post. In their last two games, the locals have built up good margins on the scoreboard in the early stages, but have been unable to keep the late Elmira scoring threat in check, SCORE WHEN SHORT In Tuesday's game the Hawks proved they can get in the scoring mood when there are fewer players on the ice. They scored twice while enjoying a man advantage with an Elmira performer in the penalty box and also scored twice when playing a man short themselves. The latter goals were scored when the Hawks were serving time for having too many men on the ice. The Exeter club took a 2-0 lead in the first five minutes of play on goals by Jim Hayter and Bill Bourne. Hayter was seeing action for the first time since sitting out a three game suspension. Elmira was quick to retaliate and wipe out the deficit with goals coming from the sticks of Phil Hahn and Glen Read. At the 9.19 mark, Bob Goring scored the third Exeter goal on a play started by Barry Baynham, also back in action for the first time after suffering a fractured ankle. Scott Burton revived the Hawk two goal edge, scoring on an unassisted effort with less than four minutes remaining in the period. Elmira outscored„ the Hawks three ,goals to two in the second session to cut the Exeter lead to a single goal. Dave Selling bagged two and Dave Scarrow fired a single for the Kings. Burton and Hayter, each with their second goals of the night were the Exeter marksmen. Early in the third, Bill Fairbairn found the scoring range on a solo effort to give the Hawks a two goal bulge, but they were unable to hang on. Dennis Brubacher made it close at 10,32 and Scarrow knotted the count and forced overtime with a shot that beat Glenn Stire in the Exeter net with about four minutes remaining in regulation time. On Exeter ice it was the same story with the Hawks taking an early lead but failing to hang on long enough. Bill Bourne, Scott Burton and Randy Parsons found the scoring mark for the Hawks in the first half of the period and the large crowd of 758 were in a happy frame of mind. The joy in Exeter didn't last too long as the Kings came roaring back and scored three times before the period closed while the Hawks could score only one more. Russ Fart, Glenn Read and Don Seiling were the Elmira goal getters while Toni Hodgins replied for the Hawks, In the second period, Elmira notched two goals for the only scoring of the --period and moved in front 5-4, Selling and Farr were the scorers. At 8.44 of the final frame, Bill Fairbairn converted a pass from Jean Gautreau to tie the score, ,but only temporarily. Gary Sittler fired what proved to be the winning Elmira Counter at 17.18, In Elmira, Saturday night, the Kings scored three times in the third period after scoring the For seventh gCnMe Same amount in the opening Session to down the Hawks 6.4. Dave Reid scored twice and Dave Scarrow notched a single 0 for the Kings in the first period while Jean Gautreau was the lone Exeter scorer. The Hawks rallied in the Second to score the only two markers to tie the count. Scott Burton and Gautreau were the successful shotmakers, Reid scored his third of the night for Elmira and singles were added in the last period by Phil Hahn arid Dennis Brubacher. Mike Hoy fired the closing counter for the Hawks, Bantams deadlocked in OM HA third round Hawks must win to stay alive I
