He was quick to add that he was not critical of the job turned in by last year's coach Steve DeGurse. He continued, "DeGurse can certainly come and play with us. I like him as a person and he did a pretty good job of coaching as far as I'm concerned," Jack Nairn was playing coach of the Jets the first three years they were in the Senior Con- tinental league. He is now the coach of the Stratford Junior "B" Cullitons Urbshott said combining playing and coaching has become too big a job for one person.
