Win in overtime
After playing a scoreless ten
minute overtime period,
defencennan Pete Glover scored
the winning goal at 5.50 of the
first sudden-death overtime
session to send the large
delegation of Exeter fans home
happy.
Glover moved up into the slot in
front of the Belmont net to take a
pass from Perry Stover and fire
the winning shot behind Jim
Weaver in the Belmont cage.
Steve Hurley was responsible for
starting the game winning play
sequence,
The Sunsets started out as if
they really meant to extend the
series and moved into a 3 - 0 lead
before the halfway mark of the
first period on goals by Ken
Grayson, Bob Summers and Ed
Landon.
Steve Murley cut the big deficit
down a bit at the 15.46 by scoring
on a three-way passing effort
with Ron Lindenfield and Jim
Guenther.
The score remained the same
until the three-quarter mark of
the second period when Ron
Lindenfield was on the firing end
of a successful shot with assists
going to line-mates Steve Murley
and Larry Haugh.
The tying goal came at the 11.36
mark of the third period on a
fancy shot by Bob Rowe who was
turned around in front of the
Belmont net and actually shot the
puck between his legs and into
the net to send the game into
overtime.
John Hayter continued his fine
play in the Exeter nets and after
the quick Belmont scores in the
early minutes he was unbeatable.
Faceoff goals
Two of the Exeter goals in
Sunday's 4-2 win over Belmont to
allow the Hawks to take a
strangle hold on the series came
on quick play right from the face-
off.
After each club had been th-
warted on numerous good scoring
chances in most of the first
period, the Hawks found them-
selves with a glorious opportunity
when two Belmont players were
waved off within a minute of each
other.
It took the Hawks only three
seconds to make use of the
maximum power play.
Captain Larry Haugh got the
draw in the Belmont face-off
circle and the puck was quickly
back to Ron Lindenfield and into
the net before Jim Weaver in the
Belmont net could blink an eye at
17.13.
Only 52 seconds later the
Hawks were out in front 2-0 with
Steve Murley firing in a shot on a
play started by Jim Guenther and
Larry Haugh.
After a scoreless second
period, the two teams started off
the final frame with two men
each in the penalty box.
With the Hawks putting on the
pressure, a Belmont defender
tried to clear the puck out of his
own end. Ron Janke blocked the
shot near the blueline and flipped

FOR. .A.41, GOOD SPORTS'
By Ross Haugh
A good
start
Although this is being written on the weekend,
the Exeter Hawks are off to a good start in their Junior
"D" playoff round with the Belmont Sunsets.
Under the excellent guidance of coach Bob White
the Hawks took the first three games from Belmont and
could have the series wrapped up by this time with a
Tuesday win in Belmont.
Injuries continue to hamper the Hawks and the
most unfortunate fellow on the club has to be Peter
Kleinstiver. The Dashwood youngster suffered a broken
jaw more than three weeks ago and has been on the
sidelines ever since.
Sunday afternoon, with a face mask to protect his
jaw, Kleinstiver was back in action for the first time.
During one of his turns on the ice in the first period,
Kleinstiver was taken into the boards heavily and
injured his knee and could be out of action for the
balance of the year.
On the other side of the health ledger is the
return to the line-up of Shane McKinnon after sitting
out several months with a broken ankle. While seeing
limited action in his first start, McKinnon showed he
will be very valuable to the Hawks as they hope to head
farther down the provincial playoff trail.
Goalie John Hayter continues to come up with
fabulous performances in goal to keep the Hawks'
opposition well in hand. The Hawks top forward line
have seemed to hit their stride.
The trio of captain Larry Haugh, Ron Lindenfield
and Steve Murley accounted for all four goals Sunday
afternoon. Lindenfield's two scores Sunday came on
quick shots right from the face-off in the Belmont zone
as Haugh got the draw back to his winger, accurately
and quickly.
The entire team has been performing well and has
won seven of eight playoff games. Keep going, fellows.
If the Hawks do get by Belmont to advance into
OHA playdowns their next opposition will likely be
either Caledonia or Simcoe.
The Caledonia Corvairs won their group
championship quite handily and their goal tenders had a
very impressive goals against average of little more than
two goals per game.
At the moment, Caledonia and Simcoe are tied at
a game apiece in their group final.
In other parts of the province, the Hawks
opposition in the final last year from Haliburton were
not faring quite as well at last reports.
The Huskies were in fourth place in the league
standings with Lakefield leading the league.
Interesting auto show
Any sports car enthusiasts in the area are
reminded of this weekend's Autorama being held at the
Progress Building at Western Fairgrounds in London.
• ", The 15th annual Autorama sponsored by the
London Auto Modifiers club will be open to the public
this Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
One of the features of the show will be the
appearance of the world's land speed record holder. The
Goldenrod, 33 feet in length with four 426 cubic inch
engines shattered the world wheel driven car record on
the Bonneville Salt Flats at 409.277 miles per hour.
At this popular show, the car enthusiast young
and old alike will see the ultimate in automobiles,
antiques of the early 1900's, 200 mile per hour six
second fuel dragsters, exotic street rods, one of a kind
custom built cars, racing cars, drag cars, motorcycles
and dune buggies.
There will also be dozens of interesting and
educational commercial exhibits plus auto racing films.
A warming thought
With Old Man Winter still holding quite a grip on
us this week, it helps a little when we hear baseball news
from the sunny south.
All major league teams are now in spring training
with most of the players signed to contracts. One of the
major holdouts is the Oakland star pitcher Vida Blue.
Regardless of what figure Blue finally settles for it
will constitute the largest percentage increase in any
athlete's salary for quite some time. The big right
hander of the Athletics received only $14,000 in his
first year in the majors and has been holding out for
close to one hundred thousand dollars.
Salaries seem to be skyrocketing all over the
place. Mickey Lolich of the Detroit Tigers has signed for
a reported $85,000, making him the second highest paid
Tiger in history, only $15,000 per annum behind
veteran outfielder Al Kaline who is starting his 20th
year with the Bengals.
The honour of drawing down the highest salary of
all time goes to Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves.
Aaron only last week signed a three-year pact calling for
$200,000 per year. Starting his 19th season in the big
leagues, Aaron has a career total of 639 home runs and
is only 75 behind the all-time record of Babe Ruth.
In 1971, the Atlanta swatter connected for 47
home runs and should break the former Yankee star's
record before his present contract runs out. He holds
five major league and 11 National loop batting records
and has 13 grand slam home runs, only one short of the
league record.
A real power play
Lots of goals have been scored on power plays in
hockey games of all classifications over the years, but
one claimed by the Montreal Canadiens Sunday night
was a bit unusual.
With play in the Philadelphia end, the referee
raised his arm to indicate a Flyer penalty. With this,
Montreal goalie Ken Dryden left his net and was
replaced by a sixth attacker Yvan Cournoyer.
Play continued for at least twenty seconds and
Cournoyer scored before a Philadelphia defender was
able to touch the puck.
Goals have been scored before on this type of
play, but this is the first time we have heard of a player
coming off the bench to score, thus wiping out the
penalty.
