R ecreation
talk
While the recreation situation in Exeter appears to be
unsettled we had a chance Monday night to hear about a
successful recreation operation involving more than one
municipality,
Len Love, the director of recreation in St. Marys was
one of the guests at an Usborne township meeting to discuss
the possibilities of establishing a recreation committee in
the municipality.
Before we go any further on this subject we would like
to clear up one matter. At the last meeting of Exeter council
several members were disturbed that St. Marys officials
were consulted for recreation help in Usborne.
Usborne recreation people were quick to point out it was
the fact, Mr, Love of St. Marys had organized four
townships in his area and was familiar with all grants and
methods of organization.
Usborne councillor Bill Morley was also involved in
some of the organization in the neighbPuring township of
Blanshard.
At the moment, the townships of East Nissouri, West
Nissouri,Downie and Blanshard have a combined recreation
program with the town of St. Marys.
Each township has its own recreation committee and
operates some individual programs but their youngsters
join in with St. Marys in especially swimming and house
league hockey.
In making his presentation Len Love pointed out that
recreation is "just not sports". He defined recreation as "a
constructive, enjoyable and satisfying use of leisure time by
people of all ages giving them something to do in an organiz-
ed way."
He reported one of the most successful recreation pro-
jects in his area involved people of middle age. A regular
euchre league has been formed and a total of 144 persons
play on a regular schedule several times a month.
He said the enthusiasm is very high and play at times
gets rather hectic and noisy with plenty of table thumping.
The Central schools in the area are also used for gym-
nastics and other physical fitness activities. Classes are
held three nights per week throughout the winter months for
men, women and young people.
After hearing the presentations by Len Love and Don
Simpson from Blanshard township we hope something
similar can be organized in this area.
A program co-ordinated by the town of Exeter with the
assistance of the townships of Stephen, Usborne and Hay
could be very successful.
Exeter councillor Tom MacMillan and clerk Eric
Carscadden sat in on the Usborne meeting as observers.
MacMillan said hefelt townships could help in the selection
and direction of an area recreation program.
A pleasant surprise
One of the most pleasant surprises in the National
Hockey league this year has been the performance to date of
the Atlanta Flames.
At the rate they are going at the present time, the
Flames in only their second year as an expansion club in the
NIflevishoult1 ,make theyvestern division playoffs.
I Coach 14erniet..Gedifrion has his club hustling and they
pff 4ilost the impossible a couple of weeks ago when
they defeated the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadians in
successive games.
Two former members of the Canadiens seem to be mak-
ing the difference with the Flames along with the strong
competitive spirit of Geoffrion.Noel Price an18 year veteran
around the NHL has been heading the defensive corps of
the Flames and one of the top scorers is Leon Rochefort.
A good rule change
Rule makers in the National Hockey league could do a
lot worse than follow some of the moves made in the rival
World Hockey Association.
The WHA presently is using three rules which are not
existent in the NHL.
Probably the best move made by the WHA was the use
of sudden-death overtime doing away with dull games in
which both clubs are happy to settle for a tie.
Minnesota Fighting Saints coach Harry Neale says,
"teams don't play for a tie in the third period knowing there
is going to be sudden-death overtime.
It evens out most of the clubsYou lose about as manyas
you win so you wind up with about the same number of
points, But it's really pleasing for the spectators. You don't
see them heading for the parking lots with a few minutes of
play remaining."
Last year 64 of the WHA's 468 regular season games
went into overtime and 45 were settled. In comparison, the
National Hockey league with 624 games played came up
with a total of 87 tie games.
Another rule which results in consistently spectacular
hockey is the one allowing a player to pass from his own end
to a man on the other side of centre ice as long as the puck
precedes him across the red line.
It produces a game that breaks very quickly. It also
forces defensemen to hang back to protect themselves
reducing crowding in the offensive zone.
Another excellent rule is the one that forces a team kill-
ing a penalty to get the puck over its own blueline before it
can ice it. Otherwise it comes back for a face-off. This
means power plays are more sustained.
Possible record
Gary Brown of the Bothwell Barons may well have set a
worlds record in a recent Ontario Hockey Association
Senior Continental game against the Lucan-Ilderton Jets.
With his Bothwell team playing a man short Brown
scored no less than three goals during a two minute minor
penalty.
One of the newsest members of the L-I Jets is currently
leading the league in the scoring department. He is Rick
Fifield who held the same distinction for the last couple of
years with the St. Marys Lincolns.
Durham Huskies Seem to dominate the penalty
statistics. Among the top four penalized are Bob Dube, Glen
Read and Bob Hetherington, all of the Huskies.

tied the score midway through
the middle frame. St. Thomas
moved ahead late in the second
period and then the Exeter
youngsters scored twice in the
third period only to have the
visitors bounce back to tie the
score again with only a little
more than a minute remaining.
The Exeter scoring honours
were well divided. Dan McIver
scored the first home team goal
on a solo effort. The second
marker came on a three-way
passing pattern with Randy
Regier firing the shot with help
from Kevin Baker and Dave
Regier.
Paul Shapton was on the firing
end of the next successful Exeter
shot with the assist going to Ken
Pinder. Kevin Baker notched the
final score for the locals on a pass
from Randy Regier.
Three of Exeter's minor
hockey clubs travelled to Petrolia
Saturday night and suffered
three setbacks in an exhibition
series.
Petrolia won the pee wee game
5.2, the bantam contest 6-2 and
the midget game by a score of 5-1.
In the pee wee game, the
Exeter youngsters started off in
fine style with the first two goals
of the game but that's where their
scoring stopped.
Doug Brooks opened the
scoring on an unassisted effort in
the second minute of play and
only a few seconds later Danny
Bell scored on a pass from Jeff
Fuller.
The only Exeter midget score
cattle on a solo effort by Ken
Pinder and it came in the first
minute and a half of the first
period. •
Two teams are again tied for

night's game came late in the
second period when the Hawks
scored two goals in six seconds
during the last minute of play to
erase a previous 4-3 Lucan lead,
Gerald Weido scored one goal
in each period and Brian Taylor
also turned in a hat trick per-
formance to lead the Hawks in a
scoring way to give newly ap-
pointed coach Dave Beer his first
win in OHA Junior "D" play.
Beer was behind the bench for the
first time in the 3-3 tie in Lambeth
Sunday night.
The first period was even with
each club scoring two goals.
Weido and Kevin Bestard

Funston and Craig Corman

Randy Gilfillan scored on an
unassisted effort early in the
second to put the Hawks in front
