Coach Bob White was in full agreement with the choice. "John gave us 100 percent right through," White stated, adding that his desire had the effect of making the other players play their best as well.

"They didn't look out of place," White said of the midget recruits. In his final duty of the season, White also picked the team's most improved player, that honor going to defencernan Joe O'Rourke, The coach noted this was a hard decision, explaining that some didn't qualify because they had the potential and played that way all season, Of O'Rourke, he said the puckster looked like he had the potential and really came into his own during the last five games of the schedule and in the playoffs when the Hawks sidelined Lucan and Zurich. White also paid tribute to the executive of the club and the Exeter Minor Hockey Association and all those connected in any way with the club, There was little doubt about the players' desire to have White return to the helm for next season. He was given a standing ovation when an invitation to return was extended by EMHA president Derry Boyle. Boyle said this would he one of his last duties as president of the minor group. However, noting that he had made such a statement last year, one of the lads in the crowd shouted, "you old bugger, you'll be back next year," and this too was greeted with a show of support from the Hawks. Mike Hoy spoke on behalf of the players as he noted the team had done much better than most people had expected this year. He paid tribute to the good coaching and the fact the players gave their best every time out on the ice. "We all enjoyed ourselves too," lie concluded. By MRS. G.

Huron's rate hits second Huron County had 23 deaths due to car accidents in 1968, according to Dr. G. P. Evans, Medical Health Officer. This is a rate of 40.7 per hundred thousand and is the second highest among the thirty County Health Units reporting in the country.
