This year's carnival which is the 23rd will have a theme which should certainly please all youngsters especially those fortunate enough to watch television each morning. It's entitled "Let's All Meet at Sesame Street" and will include more than 150 boys and girls. Several of the local skaters are only three years old. We believe three of the youngest are Brenda Balsdon, Rhonda Turnbull and Julie Tiernan. Jack Underwood heads a very active executive as presi- dent. Co-conveners of the carnival are Ev Josephson and Key Elder. Club professional Brad Loosley is back directing the figure skaters after a lengthy illness and most of the prac- tices for the carnival have been confined to the last two weeks. Some of the Sesame Street characters to be portrayed will be Big Bird, Oscar and Cookie Monster. These will be joined by a variety of animals including skunks, frogs and ducklings. Add to this the Swinging Mod Squad and some Night Riders on mini-bikes and some interesting and humorous action should be produced. The guest artists will be a pair of 14 year-old twin girls, Carol and Alma McCormick from the Ilderton Figure Skating club. Some extra comedy will be provided by Steve and Jeff Loosley. They are brothers of the club pro and can be counted on to serve up an interesting comedy routine. Heading the local talent will be solo performances by Brenda Pincombe, Linda Elder, Vicky Miller, Laurie Prout and Nancy Underwood. Most of the costumes to be worn during Saturday's car- nival have been rented from the Markham-Unionville skating clubs and were picked up Sunday afternoon. Costumes were handed out Monday and Tuesday afternoons and a dress rehearsal is being held this afternoon, Thursday. The local club pays anywhere from $2.50 to $4.50 for the costumes. In turn each skater pays a rental fee of $3 for his or her costume. In addition to boys and girls from Exeter, youngsters from Dashwood, Crediton and Hensall and the surrounding townships are taking regular figure skating lessons and will appear in the carnival. The club has use of the ice at the arena for about 10 hours each week. The regular hours are Mondays from 3.30 to 9.30 p.m. and Tuesdays from 4 to 8.30 p.m. The most hectic and strenuous day for the executive members is Saturday when the arena must be decorated and the ice surface painted for the upcoming show. Any volunteers with an hour or two to spend Saturday afternoon will be more than welcome at the arena. While the skating members of the club pay a goodly sum of money in registrations, success of the club's year depends a great deal on the support received from the general public at the annual carnival. The abilities of the young skaters have been improving each year and we are sure anyone attending Saturday's show will be assured of good night's entertainment. The curtain goes up at 7.30 p.m. See you there. ,-.• Barry's fifth year as a wrestler at South Huron.

A Wednesday recount in the Huron-Perth championship team standings maintained a one and a half point lead for Stratford Central over South Huron. In WOSSA play Saturday Stratford Central finished in 13th position with 12 points.

The fifth annual Crippled Children's Weekend at the Pineridge Chalet was again a resounding successs. A big cheer should go to the pancake chefs who stood by the grills from shortly after eight in the morning to almost three in the afternoon. The chief visiting cooks were Bill Brady of CFPL and London's Crippled Children's president Ralph Duff us but they received plenty of help from the reliable resident chefs Bob Baker and Russ Tieman. Add to this another dozen kitchen helpers and possibly 20 young ladies acting as waitresses and one gets the idea of how much co-operation is needed in putting a venture of this nature across, Shortly after 10 a.m. the crowds started to arrive and long lineups were evident for the tasty pancake and sausage breakfast. All the folks at the Pineridge should be congratulated on a very successful event and crippled kids should again be the big winner. While officials haven't been able to deter- mine the exact amount of profit we are sure it should be quite substantial. Fletcher stars In Friday's win over Petrolia which was a must to stay alive, Richard Fletcher was the star for the Broncos as he turned everything aside fired his way by his Petrolia opponents including a penalty shot late in the third period. Two goals by David Bell in the first period gave the Broncos a good margin which they were able to hold onto thanks to Fletcher's great puck stopping. Captain Rick Lindenfield assisted on the first successful shot by Bell and the second came on an unassisted effort. In the second period, the Exeter scoring pattern was reversed with Lindenfield finding the mark with help from Bell. Wednesday in Petrolia the Exeter club started off in good fashion and held a 2-1 lead after two periods of play only to have the home club notch three unanswered goals in the final frame.

Only Trophies 50% Off Don't Miss This Great Saving H & K SPORT CENTRE Trophies - Engraving Sporting Goods MAIN ST, EXETER 235,2261 A worthy honour One of the trophies presented at the weekend's first an- nual Lucan Legion Leprechaun atom was donated by the village of Lucan and honours a very deserving person. It has been named the Wilf Hodgins trophy and goes to the most sportsmanlike team in the atom tourney. The trophy was won Sunday by the Exeter Broncos. Anyone who has ever had anything to do with hockey at the Lucan arena will remember Wilf Hodgins. When the arena was built in 1949 Wilf was one of the many men who gave of their time very willingly as a volunteer worker, We can remember very well back in our playing days when Wilf could scrape and flood the ice and then head for the time keeper's bench for his duties there. It seems very fitting that the village should take the op- portunity to honour Wilf for his many devoted hours at the arena.
