FOR ALL GOAD SPORT$ 0..y Ross Haugh Exeter clubs get two wins in Shamrock league play • Hiller coming While it is still about two months away, the Exeter Sportsmen's dinner being sponsored by the Exeter Lions club should be a huge success. Through the untiring efforts of Lion Don Taylor, the dinner is being arranged and will be held on. Tuesday, February 5, the night following a similar affair in London. Don Taylor told us Monday morning he had just receiv- ed word direct from Tiger Stadium in Detroit that Tiger star relief pitcher John Hiller would definitely appear here. Hiller's recovery from a fairly serious heart attack a couple of years ago makes a tremendous story in itself without mentioning his performance in the 1973 American league baseball season. Hiller, a native of Scarborough, Ontario set a major league record this past season in the number of saves recorded by a relief pitcher. When the Tigers were still in the running for the league pennant late in the season it seemed Hiller was called on in almost every game to head to the mound and put out an op- posing rally. Other top notch sports celebrities are being contacted to be, part of Exeter's first Sportsmen's dinner. All proceeds will go to aid Crippled. Children. The Lions club is a prime booster of crippled kids work and this is a great opportunity for all area sportsmen to do their part. In addition you will be assured of a wonderful night's entertainment with a chance to chat with a lot of in- teresting personalties. Other confirmations on the speaking list are the former big bad boy of the National Hockey league, Lou Fontinato; well known harness race horse owner Mac Cuddy of Strathroy; former NHL performer Larry Jeffrey. Negotiations are still continuing with American league, baseball umpire Emmett Ashford and Mrs. Penny Tweedy, owner of the super thoroughbred Secretariat. We will keep our readers posted as to the speakers as they are confirmed. Knowing the many hours of work Don Taylor and his Lion cohorts are putting in and the number of contacts they are using, the dinner is bound to be a success. Helping Coaches Help Youth Help Hockey Help Canada As Autumn of '72' shifted to winter, mass enthusiasm and excitement over the Russia - Canada Series gradually subsided. Canadians settled back to watch regular NHL en- counters, and muse over Canada's ability to withstand future challenges to International Supremacy. Can we beat the Russians next time? What is being done to improve and upgrade our skills? Hockey Night in Canada is presenting a five-part series that may answer many prevailing questions. The series is based on findings of the Hockey Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), a body comprised jointly of members from Hockey Canada (the coordinating body for all levels of hockey), and the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association. Recently, TAC brought 50 of the top Canadian Universi- ty and minor coaches to Toronto to attend four days of lec- tures and seminars. The TAC group included represen- tatives of the best hockey resource people from every province; working together to assist in the improvement of coaching proficiency. Hockey Night in Canada's presentation, which began Saturday night includes film of the Technical Advisory Com- mittee in action during this seminar. TAC's efforts, hopefully will dispel any notion of inclinations on the part of hockey establishment to rest on past laurels alone. This Saturday night during intermission night on the hockey telecast the Russian and Canadian minor hockey coaching systems will be compared and discussed. Saturday, December 15 attention will be focused on our Canadian minor hockey coaching philosophy and what it should be. The fifth session to be shown, Saturday, December 19 will feature the professional coach, his attitude towards the technical advisory committee and its findings. The coach will be Fred Shero of the Philadelphia Flyers. Interesting wrestling tourney The annual Red and Black wrestling tournament will be held Friday of this week at South Huron District .High School. A total of 12 teams from Western Ontario will be in town to take part in this popular event. In addition to the local South Huron grapplers, teams will be in attendance from four London high schools, the same number from the Kitchener-Waterloo area in addition to Sarnia, Petrolia and Goderich.
