EXETER 235-2261 The Exeter Waxers came close to pulling off a major upset in the Lis towel novice tournament during the spring break, Entered in the "B" class, the local lads were nipped 3-2- by St. Marys for the consolation trophy. The stone town crew had been expected to walk away with the silverware without too much trouble, but they had to go all out to eliminate the Waxers. St. Marys scored in the first frame and Exeter captain John Kernick got that one back, only to have St. Marys take another one- goal lead by the end of the middle frame. Early in the third period, Kernick connected for his second tally to knot the count, and the score remained that way until St. Marys fired the winner with four minutes remaining. Exeter made it to the consolation final by beating Hanover 2-1 in their second game of the tournament. Captain John Kernick scored both tallies in that contest as well. In the tournament opener, the Exeter crew were drubbed 10-0 by Beamsville, who went on to win the "B" championship. Exeter put the first two scores into their own net and couldn't get untracked after that disastrous beginning. The local team was short- staffed with several youngsters home due to illness. Participating in the tour- Colonials lead South Huron final The final regular schedule statistics released this week by Nick Martin for the Ontario Hockey Association Con- tinental Senior league are rather interesting. The Lucan-Ilderton Jets while finishing third in the league standings scored the most goals of any team with 203, 12 more than the league leading Stratford Perths. In the goals against department the Jets were fourth with 140 goals behind Durham, Stratford and London. The Jets placed four players in the top seven scorers in the league. Playing coach Jack Nairn finished in second spot with 70 points, six behind Brian Hind of Bothwell. Jamie Robb was in third place with 65 points, Rick Fifield was fifth with 50 points and Jacques Cousineau finished in seventh spot with 52 points. In addition to finishing in the runner-up spot, Nairn was tops in the league's assist department with 51 and Rick Fifield led the goal getters with 34, Cousineau and Fifield each scored nine power play goals during the season and had one less than Brian Hind of Bothwell. Fifield was also runner-up in game winning goals and the number of hat tricks achieved with four each. On the defensive side of the ledger Bill Bourne of the Jets was the leader in penalties. Bourne set two league records, that of 143 minutes during the season and 36 minutes in penalties in one game against Woodstock on March 1. The number of penalties picked up by the goal tenders was rather amazing. The Durham Huskies netminders were proficient in getting the nod from the referees although this isn't unusual. Veteran Gord Becker was up to his usual old tricks and received a whopping 30 minutes in penalties. His net min- ding cohort in Durham Brian Caley was assessed 17 minutes. Lorne Daer of the Jets picked up only six minutes. Another bouquet which can be thrown to Brian Hind of Bothwell who led the scorers was the fact he received only three minor penalties during the full schedule of 30 games. The least penalized of the L-I Jets was Jacques Cousineau with 18 minutes picked up in 31 games. As a team Durham knocked off the most penalties with 796 minutes and the Jets were next in line with 623 minutes. A good year for the Bruins Despite the fact they were picked to finish as low as third and fourth by most of the experts in the. National league this year, the Boston Bruins clinched the eastern division pennant Sunday night with two weeks still remain- ing in the schedule. With an abundance of hindsight, lots of reasons can be given for the success of the Boston club. They range all the way from coach Bep Guidolin to the excellent goal tending by Gilles Gilbert and Ross Brooks, the high'scoring of Phil Esposito and remarkable performances by a fine crop of rookies. The Shipka Colonials have taken a one game lead in their best-of-seven South Huron in- termediate hockey league final with the Zurich Flyers. Dennis Morrissey scored for the Colonials in overtime to give his club a 5-4 win Tuesday night and a three games to two lead in the series.

Larry Laye scored for Shipka on passes from Dennis Morrissey and Stan Lovie and Bob Merner replied for Zurich with help from Randy Decker, Jim Guenther relayed a pass from Bill Hoffman into the Zurich net to complete the middle frame scoring. In the third period each team scored only one goal. Kevin McKinnon was the Flyers marksman on a pass from Bob Merner and Dennis Morrissey scored unassisted for Shipka. Friday night, the Zurich club took a 2-1 lead after the first 20 minutes of play and never looked back and increased their lead to 6-3 after two periods. Ron Desjardine converted a pass from Rick Grenier at 1.40 to put the Flyers ahead and defenceman Jack Stanlake knotted the count on an unassisted effort less than five minutes later. At 8.40 Rick Schilbe put Zurich in front to stay as he put the puck behind Joe Arnold in the Shipka net. Kevin McKinnon assisted. Three Zurich goals in 45 seconds near the midway point of the second period decided the outcome of the game.
