T-A photo Pate 6 Timos•Advocate, February O. 1972 FOR ALL GOOD SPORTS By Ross Haugh Help the kids V The emphasis will be on helping crippled children at the Pineridge Chalet, near Hensall this weekend. Crippled children from all parts of Western Ontario including London's Timmy John Fitzgerald will be guests of the energetic folks at the Chalet. Radio station personnel from London and. Wingham will be participating in a challenge event, Sunday. The nature of the sporting challenge is still a mystery but knowing Bill Brady and his gang from CFPL, it could be almost anything, Sunday is the big day when the visiting children will be given free snowmobile rides and the disc jockeys will have their fun in the afternoon. The highlight on the Sunday menu at the Pineridge will be barbecued moose and venison along with burgers made from the meat of the two types of animals. Pancakes will be on the menu for Sunday morning with Brady, who is famous for his recipes of all countries handling the griddle chores with regulars Bob Baker and Russ Tiernan. Sandy Munn and Lloyd Mousseau will be in charge of batter mixing with Gloria Mousseau looking after the sausages. Also helping along with many other area snowmobiling enthusiasts will be Don and Shirley Mousseau and George .and Lucille Beer. Let's hope for a boost from the weatherman as the Pineridge and all their colleagues do their bit for crippled kids. Howe on TV Sunday afternoon's public affairs program on Channel 10 London will feature former Detroit Red Wing star Gordie Howe. The recently retired Howe will appear with moderator Jack Burghart on "3 p.m. Inquiry". The. show is being taped this morning at 11 o'clock in the CFPL-TV studios. Also appearing on the show will be OHA president Tubby Schmalz, Greater London Minor Hockey president Bob Crampton, Guy Emmerson of Goderich past chairman of the Goderich Lions pee wee tournament, Ernie Miller of the London Free Press and Pete James of CFPL. A studio audience of interested hockey parents will be given an opportunity to question the guests. Jack Burghart said, "We intend to examine some of minor hockey's problems including its increased professionalism. What happens once a boy or his parents agree to play for a team in a certain league? Does he become a pawn in the middle of an adult power struggle? What hold does the Ontario Hockey Association have over him? A real invasion Saturday, February 19 will be a busy day at South Huron District High School when close to 300 athletes come to town. It's the occasion of the Western Ontario Secondary Schools Association wrestling tournament. About 50 schools from all parts of Western Ontario will be represented including those participating in the Huron-Perth Conference. It is hoped South Huron will have a full 14-man squad entered in the tournament. As defending Huron-Perth Conference champs, the local grapplers are expected to bring back the same honors from the H-P meet in Goderich, Friday of this week. Under the direction of coach Doug Ellison the local wrestlers are unbeaten in Huron-Perth and exhibition play against some top schools in the province. The top three wrestlers in each weight category in the H-P championships this week will compete in the WOSSA trials along with all members of the winning team. For example, if one member of the championship team places fourth, he will still qualify for WOSSA on the strength of his team's overall showing along with the top three contestants. The London area Conference with 15 schools will be allowed to send the first four in each division to compete here. The WOSSA meet on the 19th of February gets underway at 10:30 in the morning with the finals slated for 6:30 in the evening. Spectators are welcome at the day-long event with a nominal admission fee being charged. South Huron coach Doug Ellison is convener of the WOSSA championships. Best of luck to the South Huron wrestlers in the Huron-Perth and WOSSA competitions. Separate school leagues Under the direction of physical education consultant John McCarron, teams from all schools in the Huron-Perth separate school board jurisdiction will be competing in junior and senior hockey leagues. In preliminary junior division, Mount Carmel will be meeting Goderich. In senior play, Mount Carmel meets Ecole St. Marie and Exeter Precious Blood while the other game for the Exeter separate school has opposition from Zurich. Bill Regier and Sandy McQuillan are the coaches at Mount Carmel while Mike Morrison handles the Precious Blood team.

Paice is the trainer of the New York Rangers and is in his 27th year of sharpening skates, packing equipment and the various important jobs looked after by a trainer, It took them all season but the Exeter Hawks completed the upward climb by winning the Ontario Hockey Association Junior "D" Western group championship on home ice, Tuesday night. The battle for first place went right down to the wire and the Hawks were forced to down the Clinton Mustangs 6 - 2 Tuesday night to take the league title for the second straight time. The game was rescheduled after being postponed Friday because of stormy weather. The Hawks finished up with a 41 point total, only one more than the second place Belmont Sunsets who had held top spot most of the season, The Exeter club lost a good opportunity to wrap up the title Sunday night when they lost in Belmont 5 - 3, In the "A" series which will be a best-of-seven affair, the Hawks and Mustangs go right back at it with the first game at the Exeter arena, Friday night at 8,30. The second game goes in Clinton Sunday night at eight with the third contest back in Exeter Tuesday night at 8.30.
