Huron-Perth Conference football final in an attempt to bring the championship to the school for the third consecutive year, The Goderich Vikings will be providing the opposition to the Panthers this afternoon, The game goes on the South Huron high school field at two o'clock. Doug Ellison's Panthers are going after their 27th straight win, They are undefeated in three seasons. The senior Panthers at South Huron District High School made a valiant effort to also gain the Conference final but lost Friday afternoon to Stratford Central by only three points. came into the game late in the second and fourth quarters, Stover hit Pius Deitrich with a pass good for 23 yards, In plays from scrimmage, the Panthers ran 63 play's as com- pared to 51 by their opposition from Stratford. Despite disappointment in the loss to Stratford, coach Ron Bogart said he is already looking forward to next year. Bogart added, "We could have 17 players back again this year and this should give us the nucleus of a good team, We had a good year, We lost only three games, one of those was to Strathroy in exhibition play and the other in addition to the semi- final was to the tough Goderich club by a score of 15-2 in a game we could have quite easily won," Miss good chances. In Friday's loss to Stratford Central by a 7.4 score, the senior Turkey Raffle Panthers missed .a lot of good scoring opportunities. In the fourth and final quarter, trailing 7.2, the Panthers had the ball on the Stratford 15 yard line on two occasions but in each instance lost ground on two plays. It was the fine kicking ,of Peter Kleinstiver that kept the Pan- thers in contention right to the final whistle. Kleinstiver accounted for all South Huron points with four single points, two coming on long kicks of 50 and 60 yards. His longest kick of the day came in the last period when kicking from his own end zone he lofted the ball high into the wind and with a good bounce it went into the Stratford end zone. From the line of scrimmage to where the ball was retrieved by a Stratford player was a distance of 107 yards. The first half score was 2-0 for South Huron on two of Klein- stiver's single points. Late in the third quarter after being held on two other chances from in close, Stratford scored on a one yard pass play and the convert was good to make the score 7-2. The Panthers kept the play in the Stratford end for most of the final quarter but were unable to get much of an offence going. The total yardage gain for the Panthers in the entire game was only 152 yards, with 129 yards coming along the ground. Larry Bourne was the top ground gainer with 74 yards picked up in nine carries, Dave Cyr was next in line with 48 yards in 13 tries at the line. The only South Huron pass completed was from junior quarterback, Perry Stover who Exeter Arena This area can certainly be proud of the parks and recreation area that we have so close at hand. We are referring to Exeter's Riverview Park and the Morrison Dam area, just a mile east in Usborne township. Every year many visitors to town comment on the beauty of the surroundings at Riverview Park. They certainly match or surpass any park or recreation area in a similar sized community. Thanks to the co-operation of a. lot of people the beauty of the park continues to grow each year. The RAP committee that governs all recreation, arena and park activities in Exeter is responsible for the upkeep of the park and is doing a tremendous job. In addition, the Ausable River Conservation Authority has been stabilizing the banks of the Ausable River through the park and this also adds to the beauty. East of the main park and picnic area, the Exeter Lions club has been doing a lot of work in cleaning up the banks and adjoining ground for additional park and picnic area. If present plans are successful, visitors to Riverview Park may see a couple of white swans swimming around. Recreation director Alvin Willert who was instrumental in getting a goodly number of ducks and geese for Morrison Dam is trying to get a pair of swans. This would add a lot to the already fine facilities. The cost of a pair of swans is in the neighbourhood of $200. If anyone is interested in helping in financing this venture Willert would be glad to hear from you. Thanks to Willert and a large group of enthusiastic sportsmen in the area, the ducks and geese were placed at Morrison last spring. At that time more than $175 was raised to finance the project. While the goose population growth at Morrison was fairly slow, the ducks multiplied very well. Five adult geese were originally brought to the site in the spring and only a few weeks ago, a total of eight were taken to the Arnold Desjardine game sanctuary at Grand Bend for the winter. Willert estimates .that the duck population has grown by at least fifty. While wild ducks along with the ones raised at Morrison this summer are flying in and out, Willert was able to catch a goodly number this week and they are being pinioned and will be taken to the Frank Hicks farm at Centralia for the winter. Flocks of more than one hundred have been seen on any given night this fall. Willert has been providing a feeding area for the visitors. Four nesting floats, obtained from the Department of Lands and Forests will be placed in the lake at Morrison next spring to aid in the hatching of more ducks and geese. Next spring Willert hopes to keep some of the ducks at his home for a while until they lay eggs and he can have them hatched by incubator. In this year's experiment he found that of 13 duck eggs hatched at home, the same number survived, while hatching at the Dam only three ducks survived from ten eggs. 4 FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 26 8:30 p.m. Sponsored by Exeter Hockey Association LITTLE OFFENSE — In Friday's loss in the Huron-Perth semi-final to Stratford Central, the South Huron senior Panthers were able to mount very little offensive strencth. The top carrier of the day, Larry Bourne ( 19) is shown above gaining some ground. In the background are Joe Kenda and Phil Nelson. T-A photo as Jr. Hawks regain winning ways "D" h ockey continues Full classes While minor hockey and figure skating activities get more publicity, there are other recreational programs in town that are gaining a lot of popularity. A visit to the South Huron District High School gyms each Saturday morning will prove this. The ballet classes started by Debi Wooden two years ago now have 50 young aspirants while a gymnastics program for youngsters has drawn 49 members. Susan Wooden is the gymnastics instructor. For the youth and adults wishing to get a bit of exercise and flex their muscles, a badminton club has been organized. At the moment, thirty-five district men and ladies are playing badminton at South Huron each Monday and Wednesday evenings at 7:30 p.m. Anyone interested will be more than welcome to join in with the badminton activities. A newcomer to town, Mike Ball is in charge. Hensall, CCAT win in hockey Two games were played in the district intermediate hockey league over the past week, Wednesday night at the Hensall arena, the Hensall Cascadians edged Huron Park 5-4 while the following night, Centralia College downed Dashwoocl 4-1. Two goals by Bob Carlisle paced the Hensall scoring attack in the win over Huron Park. Carlisle notched the final two goals of the game to give his club the margin of variety. He scored from Ken Smale and Mel Wurm with only 30 seconds left in the second period and took a pass from Charlie Schwalm to score late in the third period` Hensall scored the only goal of the first period with Gary Kyle firing the successful shot on a pass from Craig Chapman. Bill Chipchase and Chapman scored for Hensall in the middle frame along with Carlisle to go four goals up. Huron Park were held off the score sheet until the 12.05 mark of the third period, but when they started fired three goals in only 20 seconds. Dale Skinner netted the first on a threeway effort with Terry Millman and Bob Lammie. Bob Pinter scored the next two, one unassisted and the other with help from Rick Funston. Each team was assessed six penalties. Murray Bell of Hensall received a match penalty for charging the referee. Score early Centralia College scored three times in the first period as they downed Dashwood 4-1, Thursday. Defenceman Bruce Corrigan with a two goal performance was best for Centralia. Adding single scores were Doug Harding and Bob Bowman. The lone Dashwood goal was registered by Randy Becker with John Becker and Richard Grenier assisting. After losing their first start in the Ontario Hockey Association Western Junior "D" schedule more than two weeks ago, the Exeter Hawks got back on winning ways during the past week. Wednesday night in Lucan, the Hawks downed the Lucan Irish 6- 3 and Friday night on home ice, they blanked the Tavistock Braves by a 4-0 count. The Hawks are in Lambeth tonight, Wednesday for a game with the Flyers and will be home Friday night to the Belmont Sunsets. Fa • Ausable loop gets started The Ausable Valley rec hockey league got underway at the Exeter arena Sunday night with a couple of close contests. Ailsa Craig downed Lieury by a score of 5-2 while last year's champion Shipka Bulldogs were held to a 4-4 draw by Brinsley. Dave Collins and Jim Shipway each scored two goals to pace the Ailsa Craig scoring attack. The odd goal was added by Larry Dobson. Scoring in single fashion for Lieury were Paul Glavin and John Butterfield. Philip Conlin's two goal per- formance was best for Brinsley in the 4-4 deadlock with Shipka. Jack Conlin and Jim Thompson each netted one goal to complete the Brinsley scoring. Barry Clarke's goal with only 27 seconds remaining in the game gave Shipka the tie, Other Shipka goals were fired by Ken Lovie, Randy Becker and Rene Boogemans, ' 41- on a solo effort and blinked the red light on a pass provided by captain Larry Haugh at 16.33. Before the first period was completed, Pete Glover shot the hawks into a three goal lead with an unassisted score. The Irish came out quickly in the second period and it looked as if they might be back in con- tention. Jim Hearn registered at 1.51 with Dennis Carty providing passing assistance, Only 45 seconds later, the Lucan deficit was only a single goal as Pete lvlcGuiness converted a pass from Ron Funston into a score. Near the eight minute mark, the Exeter lead was back to two goals with Brian Bestard taking a pass from Robbie Lindenfield and firing the puck into the Lucan net. Again in the third period, the Irish were quick to get on the scoreboard. This time it was Bob Evans beating John Hayter in the Exeter nets after picking up a pass from Dennis Carty. Steve Murley completed his hat trick for the night just past the three minute mark with Pete Clover getting credit for an assist. The final goal of the game was fired by Glover with less than eight minutes to go. It was his second of the game and again unassisted. The Irish were ahead in the penalty parade with 16 assessed against them while the Hawks were penalized on only 11 oc- casions. Hawk netminder John Hayter turned in a good steady per- formance Friday night as he chalked up his first shut-out of the season. Hay ter was called on to hold the fort on many occasions as his mates visited the penalty box 19 limes while only eight visiting players were assessed penalties. The only scoring of the first period came when Peter Kleinstiver scored on an unassisted effort near the twelve minute mark. In the second period, a three- way passing play was responsible for the second Exeter goal of the night. Steve Murley was on the firing end with line-mates Ron Lindenfield and Larry Haugh providing the assists, The balance of the scoring for the Exeter club was taken care of by Brian Campbell. He took a pass from Bob Rowe before the first minute had elapsed in the third period and deposited the puck in the Tavistock nets. Less than seven minutes later, Campbell was back with his second successful shot, this time the pass was provided by Shane McKinnon. Double victory for Broncos The Exeter Broncos won their first two novice hockey games of the season over the weekend. Friday night at. the Exeter arena, they downed Strathroy 5-1 and Sunday at Huron Park they edged East London by a 4-3 score.

Get early lead In Lucan Wednesday night, the Hawks fired three unanswered goals in the first period and were never headed during their 6.3 win over the Irish, although Lucan scored two quick goals early in the second session to get close. Steve hurley led the Exeter scoring attack with a hat trick performance. Murley notched the first goal at the five minute mark We Have Em! 0 • Olden times - Over the weekend we came across a part of .a copy of the London Free Press dated April 5, 1939 that had been wrapped around an old Hallowe'en costume. Fortunately for us it contained the sports and comic sections. Several items on the sports pages are interesting. One article on that year's Stanley Cup final which was about to start between the Boston Bruins and Toronto Maple Leafs had officials of the two teams bickering. Conn Smythe of the Leafs complained that the Bruin sticks were too long and Art Ross had them chopped down to the 53 inch liMit. Ross countered with a demand that the width of the Leaf sticks and the width of the goaler pads be checked. In Allan Cup semi-finals, the Montreal Royals dealt Toronto their first loss in 32 league and playoff games. Members of the Toronto club which went on to make the NHL Leafs were Don Metz, Hank Goldup and Peanuts O'Flaherty, Buddy O'Connor was on the Montreal roster. At that time, the major league baseball exhibition season had started. The Detroit Tigers lost 5-3 to the Brooklyn Dodgers. Pitching for Detroit were Schoolboy Rowe and George Eisenstat while Rudy York and Birdie Tebbetts were the catchers, • Old-time baseball buffs will remember some of the other pitchers listed in games played on April 4, 1939. They include Paul "Daffy" Dean, Cy Blanton, Al Muncrief, Monte Pearson and Bucky Walters, Among the catchers were Bill Dickey, Rollie Hemsley, Mickey Owen and Ray Hayworth, For Your ORA Juniorliv M \ HOCKEY DRIVE BELTS SNOWMOBILE 0 Sizes to Fit Most Makes And Models $755 Tanning hides We have been asked several times in the past week for information on where deer or moose hides may be tanned. *Thanks to George Dobbs we have some information.
