On Exeter ice, Thursday, the Exeter bantams scored twice in overtime to edge the St. Marys club 3-1. Saturday, also at the local arena, the Exeter pee wees edged out a 2-1 decision and the Exeter midgets scored a 3-1 victory, The three local clubs were in St. Marys last night, Wednesday for the return contests.

HAUGH SCORES TWICE Larry Haugh, who continues to lead the Hawk scoring counted two goals in the first period Friday as the Hawks were holding the Belmont club to a 3.3 draw. Saturday should be one of the biggest days of the year at the Exeter arena when. Minor Hockey Day will be observed, This is the chance parents, relatives, neighbours and friends have to see all participants of the Exeter Minor Hockey Association in action, A. total of eleven games have been scheduled starting with house league play at nine in the morning and concluding with the feature exhibition game between the Exeter Junior Hawks and a group of former Mohawk players of more than ten years ago at 8:30, Bill Musser and Bob Baynham who have been in charge of notifying the ex-Mohawk performers told us Monday that 22 of the 28 players contacted would be on hand for the big game. In addition to regular house league play, the all-star minor teams will be playing against teams from other centres. The complete schedule for Saturday is listed in an advertisement elsewhere on these pages. We hope the arena will be a busy spot on Saturday with every parent out to see their youngster in action during the day. This is our one chance in the year not only to give vocal but financial support to the Exeter Minor Hockey Association and the faithful coaches and managers that get very little credit for a lot of time and money spent during the winter months. Fans can expect to see three goalies in action, Exeter's own Dick McFalls will definitely be back, Buddy Dietrich reports he is ready to go if he can borrow the pads he sold a few years ago and Gar Baker, who is still seeing some action with the Seaforth Beavers has not made verification but is expected to perform. Defencernen that will be on skates are Jack Dwyer, Earl Barton, Dave Weber, Doug Smith, Bob White and Bob Coates. Doug Thiel had not confirmed his presence at time of this writing. Among the front line performers will be Frank Anderson, John Anderson, Mary Schantz, Ray Richards, Bob Baynham, Red Loader, Bill Musser, Larry Heideman, Andy Sararas, Bill Wharmsby, Don Gravett, Ken Doig, Jim Russell, Murray Brintnell, Bill Oberle and Cy Blommaert. Provincial Treasurer, C. S. MacNaughton, Huron MP Bob McKinley and Huron Warden Roy Westcott are expected to be on hand to add to the official ceremonies preceding the big exhibition match. The Minor Hockey Committee suggests that every minor hockey coach might well decide early what his objectives are. We further suggest that the GOOD COACH, the coach who is sincerely interested in the welfare of boys, will try to make sure that every boy has fun; that they are reminded constantly that they are playing a game, and that play and games means having fun. Then add instruction in sportmanship and good citizenship. When these lessons have been learned, the boys will be ready for further teaching of the fundamentals of hockey. 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111k Although the Exeter Hawks were only able to come with one point in two Ontario Hockey Association Junior "D" games over the past week, they still hold a six point lead at the top of the standings.

With four games to go, the Hawks have a total of 39 points, but the fast closing Lucan Irish have moved up with 33 points. Belmont is in third spot, another point behind. The two most important games of the season for the two top clubs are being played this week. The Hawks were in Lucan last night, Wednesday and the Irish will be right back in Exeter, Friday night.

Before one minute had • REC NEWS Bruins flying high By ALVIN WILLERT Well Done, Students We would like to pass on our congratulations to the Student Council and all students at South Huron District High School for their enthusiastic support of the first Winter Carnival at the school. Staff member Bruce Shaw, who helped co-ordinate the entire program told us a few days before the event that the council was prepared to suffer a loss of up to five hundred dollars on the weekend. To Bruce's and our surprise, a profit of well over seven hundred dollars was realized and this money is being turned over in its entirety to three charitable organizations. We spent most of Friday night at the school, catching only a couple of cat naps during the early morning hours and were very impressed with the behaviour of the students, despite a few rumours that have been flying around this week, obviously started by people that were sound asleep when the young people were playing basketball and enjoying themselves. We were able to catch several interesting shots of very tired students and teachers taken somewhere in the neighbourhood of five in the morning. Some of these appear elsewhere in this issue. Our only disappointment over the weekend was the lack of support by the teaching staff at South Huron. We have heard teachers in the past say they are unable to get the students interested in projects. This Was a case of the shoe being on the other foot. With a staff of 57 teachers, we never saw more than six at any one time and doubt very much if more than one- fifth put in art appearance either, Friday or Saturday.

Randy Preszcator upped the home club lead to three goals in the first minute of the final period and Murray Pic kel notched the only St. Marys marker later in the period. For those who are newcomers to the area or too young to remember possibly an explanation of the Mohawks is necessary. From 1953 to about 1959 the feature team here at the Arena were the Mohawks. From 1953-1955 the Mohawks played in Intermediate 13' classification, then in 1956 the team stepped one notch higher and entered Intermediate 'A' company. That year the Mohawks were eliminated in the Ontario finals by the Sundridge Beavers. The following year the team entered into Senior 'B' ranks with teams such as St. Thomas, Sarnia and Woodstock. Some twenty players from. :hese former Mohawk teams will be here on Saturday night to play against this year's Junior Hawks. The Minor Hockey Day Schedule for house league activities is as follows: Pee Wee's take notice that your games will start at 12 o'clock instead of 1 o'clock. 9-10 St. Louis vs Boston 10-11 Montreal vs North Stars 11-12 Squirts & Mites 12-1 Detroit vs Seals 1-2 Blues vs Panthers Admission for the whole day is Adults $1,00 and children 50 cents.
