The game was a rough, hard- hitting affair from start to finish, Petrolia ran into three straight penalties early in the first period but they sort of backfired as far as the Exeter cause was con- cerned. While the Exeter club was trying to get its power play going, the visitors scored three times with one of their players resting in the penalty box. The only Exeter goal of the first period was fired by Paul Pooley on a pass from Danny Bell. John Dawson, Todd I3idner and Doug Eves were the Petrolia marksmen, At 6.18 of the second period, Randy Parsons took a pass from Brad Taylor and blinked the red light behind the Petrolia net. Only moments later Doug Eves was back to get his second goal of the night to put Petrolia in front 4- 2. Perry Pooley took over in the scoring department for Exeter with two goals in the last seven minutes of the middle period. His first came on a shot from the left side which was deflected in front of the net and the second was a hard slap shot, also from the left boards. Assists went to Danny vs Shipka Bears Local Hawks ousted from junior playoffs Waxers in two tourneys ZURICH ARENA Friday, March 30 8130 p.m. crucial goals for Mitchell throughout the series. Early in the third period, Jim Avery notched his second goal of the night and the Mitchell club seemed to have a very safe 5-2 lead. When it appeared the game was in the bag for Mitchell, Rick McDonald was called for tripping and the Exeter power play went into effect. The penalty was only half expired when the Hawks swung into scoring action. Diminutive Brian Campbell took a pass from Jim Guenther near the Mitchell blue-line, skipped past a Mitchell defenceman along the boards and continued behind the net and flipped a pass right in front of the net to a waiting Perry Stover and the puck was in the net, The Exeter portion of the 1,239 fans had another chance to cheer only 52 seconds later as Brian, Bestard completed a three-way passing combination with Perry score of 13-2 to advance to the The final series to decide the championship of the Exeter and district Rec hockey league is deadlocked at a game apiece. Thursday night, the senior Hawks downed Newby Tire by a score of 5-3 to even the best-of- five series at a game apiece. The series resumes tonight, Thursday at the Exeter arena at eight o'clock. Rick McDonald scored a pair of goals in the third period to give the Hawks their margin of vic- tory.Ron Lindenfield was also a double goal scorer for the win- ners while Jack Glover added a single goal. Scoring in single fashion for Newby Tire were Randy Decker, Dale Skinner and Ed Kerslake. A team effort Saturday's Exeter win in Petrolia was accomplished with a solid team effort as six different players shared in the scoring. The first goal of the game for Exeter came from the stick of Paul Pooley with the assist going to Darrell Preszcator. Firing the second marker for the winners was Perry Pooley on a play again set up by Preszcator, Steve Skinner started the successful play which resulted in the third Exeter goal chalked up by Ron Bilcke. Danny Bell scored for Exeter on an unassisted effort before the end of the second period to give his club a 4-1 margin at the end of forty minutes of play. In the third period, the two final Exeter goals again came on solo efforts. Randy Fisher hit the net with a blazing slap shot from near centre ice and Darrell Preszcator hit the mark on a lone attempt. The 1972-73 hockey season for the Exeter Hawks ended Friday night at the Exeter arena as they were eliminated from further play by the Mitchell Hawks. The Mitchell club held on for a 5-4 win to take the best-of-seven series four games to two with one tie contest. Wednesday night, the Hawks from Mitchell recorded a 6-5 win in overtime, also at the Exeter arena. Mitchell now moves on into Ontario Hockey Association Junior "D" playdowns and will meet Hagersville in the first round of provincial play. While on the short end of the score in the last two games of the series, the Exeter Hawks lived up to their reputation of being able to come from behind. Wednesday night, they scored the only goal of the third period to force the game into overtime and Friday night they came on with a rush in the last six minutes of play to come within one goal of tying the score. The Hawks carried the play to Mitchell in the final moments, Friday and only outstanding work by Ron White in the Mit- chell nets presented the win for his club. White was, outstanding throughout the game as he came up with fantastic.stops on at least three clean-cut Exeter breakaways. Late in the third period, he stopped everything the locals threw at him. At the other end of the rink it was the same story with John Hayter turning in heroic efforts to keep the Mitchell club from adding to their goal total. The Exeter Waxers competed in two mite hockey tournaments during the spring break, but failed in their attempt to bring home a trophy. Playing in the Dorchester tourney in Belmont, Saturday, the local lads posted wins over Dorchester and Stoneybrook, but were shut-out 4-0 by St. Marys in the championship final. The Waxers had an easy time in their opener with Dorchester, posting a 7-0 victory. Scott Pincombe paced the attack with three goals, while singles were picked up by Bill Glover, Dave Shaw, Dave Underwood and Scott Batten. Rick Mattucci posted his second shut-out in the next game against Stoneybrook as the Exeter crew won 2-0. Captain Bill Glover scored both goals. Playing in Listowel, Thursday, the Waxers suffered identical 4-2 defeats at the bands of Delhi and the host team to knock them out of the "B" class. Dave Shaw and Bill Glover scored in the loss to Delhi, while Scott Pincombe and Shaw picked up one each in the loss to Listowel. Strong third period After a slow start at the beginning of the game, Thursday, the Exeter youngsters came on strong with five consecutive goals in the third period to win going away 9-4. Ausable loop finals set Lieury and Ailsa Craig will meet in the final round to decide the champion in the Ausable Valley Rec hockey league. In a Sunday night doubleheader, Ailsa Craig downed Brinsley 4-1 and Lieury ran roughshod over Shipka by a Stover and Brian Campbell. The last five minutes of play producedexciting action with the local Hawks doing everything hut putting the puck in the net. Their main stumbling bock was Mit- chell goalie Rob White. •The game was extremely well and cleanly played with only seven minor penalties called. Mitchell took four of the seven infractions. While this doesn't completely fall into the sports category we would like to publicize an important campaign which is starting this week. All householders in the area should have received their supply of Easter Seals by the time this issue hits the street, All proceeds from the sale of the Seals are used to aid crippled children. We were privileged to attend the National campaign kick-off banquet in London Wednesday night thanks to the generosity of the Exeter Lions club and their Easter Seal chairman Don Taylor. Attending the banquet were more than 350 represen- tatives of service clubs who are handling the campaign in their respective areas. The event was organized by the Lon- don Rotary club. Handling the campaign kick-off duties was Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau. When first introduced the PM said he didn't know if he was the right person for this job and referred to his Grey Cup kicking and the last election cam- paign. Two of the most enthusiastic persons at the banquet were a pair of young fellows who represent all the crippled children in Canada and Ontario. They were Danny Musgrove of Saskatoon and Ricky Ware of Scarborough. While the crowd was waiting for the 'Trudeaus to arrive from their tour of London's Crippled Children Treatment Centre we had a brief moment to chat with the Timmys. Despite their handicaps one would never find a more cheer- ful, happy pair of boys. Both play hockey in regular leagues and participate in lacrosse, swimming and baseball. Ricky Ware recorded two shut-outs as a goal tender in a Toronto area pee wee league. Danny who was featured on a CBC television show recently is also a goal tender. Anyone connected with the Easter Seals campaign can't help but become enthusiastic after seeing fellows like Dan- ny and Ricky, The Ontario Timmy told us he was looking forward to going smelt fishing this spring. Whipper Billy Watson, the best friend of crippled kids anywhere in Canada also spoke in London. Watson appeared in a slightly different role than usual. In previous years, the famous wrestler would carry the Timmys in on his shoulders, but now he walks himself with the help of a cane. Watson who was seriously injured in a car accident in 1971 said he had to use the advice he has been giving to children for years, "to fight back". He told the audience, Ontario has the finest arrangement for crippled children anywhere in the world. There are 14,- 500 crippled kids in the province and 15 treatment centres. If there are any youngsters in the area who fall into the crippled children category in any way, the Exeter Lions club would like to know about them. Contact may be made with Don Taylor or Harold Gunn, We would like to ask our readers to buy and use Easter Seals. It's a small and easy way to help the less fortunate. In addition to Easter Seals, this area is well known for its contributions to crippled children activities. Only last week, officials of the Pineridge Chalet delivered a cheque in excess of $3,000 to CFPL's Bill Brady for use at London's Treatment Centre. The cheque represented the proceeds from the recent crippled Children's weekend. Only ane left The number of local hockey teams in the running for a provincial championship has dwindled to one. The only boys. still going are the Exeter Legion Auxiliary pee wees. They currently hold a two game lead oyer Petrolia and seem to be a certainty to make the Ontario finals against either Huntsville or Sharon. The Exeter Hawks faded from the playoff picture Fri- day night but they did so in their usual manner of never giv- ing up until the final whistle. Down three goals with less than six minutes to go, they scored twice and came mighty close to tying the score. Congratulations go to manager Bob Baynham and coach Bob White in bringing a good young hockey club a long way, At the same time, the best of luck to the Mitchell Hawks as they progress toward the Ontario championship. Walt notched the winner at 3.31 in extra play. Hawks all season scoring Good Start In Friday's final game of the series, the Exeter boys started off in top flight and appeared to be well on the way to victory with two goals in the first seven minutes of play. However, before the period was over, Mitchell scored three times to go ahead and they never relinquished the lead again. Left winger Brian Bestard, the only local. Hawk performer to notch two goals put his club on the scoreboardwith an,unassisted goal at 1.40 of the first period. Less than five minutes later the score was 2-0 for Exeter as Brian Taylor up from the Exeter midgets converted a pass from Brian Campbell, who was the Hawks top point getter for the night with three assists. Mitchell hit the net for the first time at 13.57 on a successful shot by Charlie Smith. Before the period was over, Don Nicholson and Jim Avery also counted for Mitchell and the score was 3-2. The only goal of the second' period came from the stick of Bill Walt, who scored most of the Bigger lead in dart league The Sharpshooters picked up five points Friday night to open up an 11 point lead at the top of the standings in the Exeter Legion mixed dart league.

In the sixth game, Wednesday night, Bill Walt proved to be the spoiler for the Exeter Hawks as the Mitchell youngster scored the important goals for the second time in only 24 hours, Walt opened his team's scoring in the first period and notched the winner in overtime, Tuesday night, it was the same Walt who tied the score with only one second left in regulation time and hit again in overtime to give his club a tie. Each team scored twice in the first period. Perry Stover and Jelin Mommersteeg were the Exeter marksmen while Phil Chessell tallied for Mitchell in addition to Walt. Mitchell scored three times in the second period while the home team Hawks could only garner two scores. Don Nicholson, Art Strohm and Charlie Smith were the Mitchell goal getters. Gerald Weido fired the first goal for Exeter with help from Jim Guenther and John Mom- mersteeg while Perry Stover finished off a play started by Pete Glover.

Checking in with one goal apiece were Gordon Walsh, Murray Dixon, Wayne Ropp and Gerald Nor- demann. Getting the Shipka goals were Jim Dietrich and Rene Boogemans. Lucan-11 demon Jets Sunday, April 1 A well earned award Don Urbshott, manager of the Lucan-Ilderton Jets hockey club received a well deserved award prior to the start of Friday night's playoff game against the Bothwell Barons. The members of the club got together and planned a Don Urbshott Appreciation Night and they were able to keep it a secret from their manager until only a few minutes before game time. A large banner was strung across the south end of the Ilderton arena announcing the fact and Urbshott didn't see it until he wondered why some of the players were talking in little groups and looking at the end of the rink. The players presented their manager with a beautiful oil painting of himself and his wife Elvie with a dozen roses. Urbshott, known through his playing days as the "Red Fox" and in recent years dubbed as "the silver fox" has been the driving force behind the Jets since their inception about five years ago. Before the formation of the Jets, he was a valued member of many Ilderton and Lucan area hockey clubs. We would like to add our personal congratulations to Don. The co-operation we have received from him over the years in getting reports of the activities of his club has been excellent. He spends endless hours each week in attending to business of the club and we're sure a more diligent club of- ficial cannot be found in hockey anywhere. Another iron man A National hockey league record is close to being broken and it isn't one involving a player. Veteran NHL linesman Neil Armstrong has been Work- ing in the league for the past 16 years and by this time should have just moved over the 1,800 consecutive game mark. The record of 1,313 games is held by a fellow who Was well known as a referee in this part of Western Ontario back in the early 1950's.
