GQQD SPORTS By Ross Haugh Well deserved One of the important awards at the recent Exeter Hawks junior banquet didn't go to a player but to a man of many hats in the local sports field. Ron Horn, president of the Exeter Minor Hockey Association presented a plaque to Exeter's Mr. Hockey, Derry Boyle for his dedication to hockey teams of all ages over the past 31 years. While the award was made on behalf of hockey, Derry has given much of his spare time since 1944 to baseball as well as hockey. Through Derry's efforts minor hockey started in Ex- eter in the mid-1940's on a very small scale with midget and juvenile teams sponsored by the Lions club. In the early days, he was solely responsible for getting many of the local minor baseball teams organized and kept them going by managing, umpiring and getting the diamond ready for play, Back to hockey, Boyle coached Exeter teams in the old cyclone league back in the early 1950's when rivalry was high among area teams including Dashwood, Zurich, Lucan and Hensall, In recent years he has been the most loyal Exeter hockey fan regardless of the category of play or where the games were played. This loyalty was at its highest when the Hawks reached the Ontario junior finals two years in succession against Haliburton and Bancroft, Derry and his wife Edith were usually the first to arrive on the long weekend trips to the north and east of Ontario. The same things applied when the Legion Auxiliary pee wees won the provincial championship during the 1972-73 and again this past season when basically the same boys as bantams sponsored by the Legion brought another title home. We feel very safe in suggesting Derry has travelled many more miles at his own expense than any hockey sup- porter anywhere, Be it OMHA playoffs or tournaments in Brampton, Hespeler, Goderich, Georgetown, etc. Derry was there. Probably one of the most important aspects of Derry's contribution to minor sports is the fact he was assisting in many ways both before and after his two sons, Frank and Rick were involved. The recent award was certainly well deserved, We know that as long as it is physically possible, Exeter hockey teams will have an ardent supporter in Derry Boyle. Congratulations, Derry, on a lifetime of dedication to all minor sports and young people in general. Year of the upsets While the complete record of one of the greatest Cinderella teams of all time is not known when this is being written the performance of the New York Islanders is literally unbelievable. In a recent issue of the Hockey News, it reported the odds on various teams to win the Stanley Cup. The well- known oddsmaker Jimmy the Greek listed the Montreal Canadiens at 2-1, Philadelphia 5-2 and Buffalo 6-1. Jimmy listed the Vancouver Canucks at 40-1 and ap- parently failed to rate the Islanders at all. Probably would have reached a thousand to one. The performance of the Islanders to date proves that any team with the proper desire and will to win can over- come a lot of diversities. The odds offered by Jimmy the Greek on NHL games are based on information provided by Herb Goren, former publicist of the New York Rangers. Final practice tonight 'for Royals fastball The Exeter Royals fastball team will be holding the final practice tonight, Thursday in preparation for their South- western Ontario fastball league opener, Tuesday night. The Royals travel to Poplar Hill for a 9 p.m. Tuesday night contest and will be back home at the Exeter diamond Thursday night with the Lucan Irish sup- plying the opposition. Officials of the Royals are confident a strong team will take the field for the opening games. The pitching staff at the moment consists of Bob George, Scott Burton, Brian Hodgins, Ron Mason and Joe O'Driscoll while catching candidates are Jim LOYAL FAN REWARDED — During Friday's annual banquet honour- ing the Exeter Hawks junior team, the Exeter Minor Hockey Association recognized the town's most loyal hockey fan.
