FOR ALL GOOD SPORTS
By Ross Haugh
Another
big day
Saturday of this week is being observed as Minor
Hockey day in Hensall and a full day of activities have been
planned for the Hensall arena.
This special recognition of Hensalrs minor hockey
program will give parents, friends and neighbours a chance
to watch every boy in action regardless of his age or size.
The big day gets underway at 10 a.m. and the first two
hours will be devoted to house league action with Montreal
facing New York in the first game and Bostom taking on
Toronto in the second contest.
At 1.30 the all-star teams see action with the Hensall
bantams facing Exeter. The 3.30 time slot will see a midget
game with Zurich and Hensall doing battle. The mites, the
youngest of boys participating in the hockey program will
put on an exhibition of their skills at 6.30 p.m.
Members of the Hensall figure skating club are putting
on a demonstration of their talents at seven o'clock and this
will be followed an hour later by the final game of the day
between the Hensall and Seaforth pee wees
This is an opportunity for all residents of Hensall and
area to get out to the arena not only to watch the youngsters
in action but say thanks to the executives, coaches and
managers for their many hours spent in looking after the
minor winter sports program.
Well timed
In our remarks last week about the successful Minor
Hockey Day held in Exeter we failed to mention the
excellent fashion in which the program was L on.
Starting at nine o'clock in the morning, the 13 game
card was completed at exactly three minutes after ten at
night which means it was operated right on the button. The
last three minutes of the midget game which wound up the
night was played stop time which accounted for the extra
couple of minutes.
Arena manager Alvin Willert, his crew, EMHA of-
ficials, team managers and coaches, referees and other
minor officials are to be congratulated on running an
excellent show.
Interesting new rule
The new designated pinch hitter rule to be established in
the American baseball league this coming season appears
aimed at helping the offensive side of the game.
Before each game starts, the managers may name a
player whose only role in the game will be to bat for the
pitcher who will be allowed to stay in the game.
It becomes apparent some managers are already plan-
ning on inserting the pitcher's name at the top of the batting
order instead of the normal bottom spot.
Manager Bill Martin of Detroit has said he would likely
name long ball hitting Frank Howard as the designated
batter whenever the Tigers play in Boston . Howard would
be used in the lead-off position to get more chances to put
the ball over the short right field fence at Fenway Park.
This new rule should enable some of the older players to
stay in the game a couple of years longer. They will be able
to concentrate on hitting and not worry about going out to a
defensive position.
It will be particularly advantageous to the Detroit
Tigers who have in addition to Frank Howard fellows like Al
Kaline, Bill Freelan and Norm Cash who may be slowing
down a bit in the field but still are able to provide power at
the plate.
Because the rule is not being used in the National league
at least for this year it could cause a few problems for
American league pitchers who will then be forced to take
their normal turn at the plate in the World Series.
We can imagine success fellows like Mick Lolich would
have at the plate in the fall classic after not having a chance
to bat during the entire season. Lolich at his best gets about
three hits per season.
While Martin has indicated he would use the pinch hitter
in the lead-off spot on some occasions we would sort of lean
to having him used in the fourth and clean-tip position.
This place is usually reserved for the best and usually
the longest ball hitter on any team. For example if the
Tigers are facing a left handed pitcher they could designate
either Kaline or Freehan to this coveted position.
This rule should bring about a complete revision in
batting orders and strategy used by opposing managers and
pitchers. The ninth man in the lineup will no longer be a soft
touch so the intentional pass which occasionally went to the
eighth man to get at the pitcher will disappear.
We can visualize all kinds of "methods of madness'
from some of the managers to get the men who have the
ability to get on base to hat ahead of not only the clean-up
hitter but now the designated hatter.
The fellows normally used in the one-two-three spots
could now be used down in seven-eight and nine to utilize the
power of the designated batter if he was used in the lead-off
spot.
