Three of four points
Hawks get victory and draw
The Exeter Hawks gained
three of a possible four points
this week in their first two
games of the season in the On-
tario Hockey Association Junior
"D" league.
Friday at Huron Park, the
Hawks scored a convincing 9-2
victory over the Tavistock
Braves and Tuesday they were
held to a 3-3 tie by the Mitchell
Hawks.
The Hawks will travel to
Port. Stanley, Sunday night,
A goal by John Van Gerwen on
a three-way effort with Ken
'Pinder and Fred Mommersteeg
at 10.23 of the third period gave
the Hawks the 3-3 draw with
Mitchell.
The Hawks opened the game
scoring at 2.47 Of the first period
when Ken Pinder scored on an
unassisted effort.
Mitchell came roaring right
back and scored two goals in only
42 seconds to take a temporary
lead at 11.02.Scoring for Mitchell
were Murray Elliott and Ron
Elliott.
The Exeter club took advan-
tage of a Mitchell penalty .with
less than four minutes remaining
in the first frame to tie the score.
Ken Pinder was again the
marksman with the assist going
to Fred Mommersteeg.
Bob Skinner scored for
Mitchell in the second period to
give his team a 3-2 edge on the
scoreboard.
The Mitchell Hawks picked up
eight of the 13 penalites called by
referees Pat O'Brien and Rick
,Singleton.'
Well balanced scoring
In running roughshod over
Tavistock in the league opener,
Friday night, the Hawks used a
very well spread scoring attack
with three goals in the first
period, two in the second and four
more in the final period of play.
In the same vein, eight dif-
ferent players shared in the
scoring. The only performer to
fire two successful shots was
Brian Taylor. Both came in the
third period.
The first of the three first
period counters came on an
unassisted effort by defenceman
Phil Knight.
At 15:47 Ron Bilcke made it 2-0
on a pass from Paul Pooley and
only 48 seconds later, Fred
Mommersteeg directed a pass
from John Van Gerwen into the
Tavistock net.
Ken Pinder hit the scoring
mark at 3:35 of the middle frame
with the assist going to Jim
Ferguson and Paul Pooley fired a
successful shot at 6:37. The play
was started by Brian Taylor.
Brian Taylor and Rick Ingram
were responsible for most of the
Hawks points in the final 20
minutes of play. Taylor scored
twice, both on passes from
Ingram and the latter hjt the
opposition net on an unassisted
effort, The final Exeter tally
came from the stick of John Van
Gerwen on a solo effort with only
15 seconds left in the game.
Laurie Skinner was in goal for
the Hawks and turned in a good
solid performance. The only two
Tavistock goals came in the last
half of the third period.
The Hawks picked up 15 minor
penalties while the Braves were
called for eight minor infractions
and one 10 minute misconduct.
Each team scored one goal on a
power play.

Good spirit
Excellent community spirit was shown at the Stephen
township hall in Crediton Sunday afternoon when about 165
persons attended the Stephen Township Baseball
Association's annual awards luncheon.
Players and parents associated with the seven teams
enjoyed an early afternoon luncheon and stayed on to watch
the top players of each team honoured.
While operating out of Crediton under the name of
Stephen township, the baseball group gives boys in
Crediton, Dashwood, Centralia, Huron Park, Grand Bend
and Exeter along with all portions of the township a chance
to enjoy their favorite summer sport.
The only rivalry within the organization occurs
between two pee wee teams from Crediton and Dashwood.
At Sunday's get to-gether, coaches of both clubs vowed they
would beat each other next year.
The association is sponsoring a dance this Friday night
at the Kirkton-Woodham Community Centre in an attempt
to derive some funds to operate next year's program and
take care of left over bills.
It takes a lot of money to operate seven teams. Presi-
dent Ray Brooks said the group will attempt to purchase
new uniforms for the girls team for 1977. They were a little
out of season this year wearing hockey sweaters.
Two new sets of uniforms were provided this year by
Saveway Lumber and Galloway Farms. Brooks said he has
purchased five and a half dozen bats for the corning year.
Two big events
Two important events are occurring this week. One is
for men only and the other gives the entire family a chance
to participate.
Tonight, Thursday, the South Huron recreation centre
fund raising committee and the Exeter Lions club are join-
ing to sponsor a stag and elimination draw. It will be held at
the Huron Park recreation centre,
A variety of activities and entertainment will ensure
everyone of a good night out. Doug Ellison has lined up five
good films of about an hour's length each which will begin
at 8 p.m.
Included will be films of a rather long ago Joe Louis-
Rocky Marciano boxing match, the 1972 Canada-Soviet
Union hockey series and the 1973 Grey Cup. Here is a good
chance to find out the winners if you're memory is far from
perfect.
Contestants in one of the events are having problems in
getting the necessary co-operation from area frogs needed
for the frog jumping or racing competition. -
Not getting frog co-operation is not really the big hin-
drance. The truth is frogs are as scarce as hen's teeth.
The ,frogs are probably digging deep into the muddy
banks of area creeks and streams in an attempt to hiber-
nate for the winter ahead.
When this column was being written the outcome of the
1976 World Series was far from being known. Taking this
into consideration, organizers of the ,big night at Huron
Park are making arrangements to install at least three por-
table television sets -in the recreation hall. "
This will allow all sports fans to attend the stag and
draw and still keep close tabs on the World Series if the fifth
game is necessary tonight, Thursday.
Local field hockey
One of the newest sports to be tried at South Huron
District High School is field hockey and it is being played by
girls at the local school.
Teacher Jim Workman has taken on the task of
coaching the girls in the initial attempt locally to create in-
terest in field hockey.
While new here, the game is widely played throughout
the world with no less than 70 nations participating. We
were able to catch a game or two of field hockey during the
1976 Olympic telecasts from Montreal and the game
appeared to be rather interesting.
Knowing very little about the game we asked Jim
Workman to fill us in on the game and he passed along a bit
of information.
The playing field is 60 yards wide and 100 yards in
length with goals being located at the centre of each end.
Only the goaltender may kick the ball. If the ball ac-
cidentally touches a player, a free hit is awarded to the op-
posing team.
The game is quite similar to soccer and hockey and
appears to be a combination of the two sports.
Field hockey requires a person to be physically fit, to be
alert on and off the ball, able to develop skills in stickwork
and footwork and also have the faculty to play as a ,team.
About a week ago, Mrs. Ann McKenna, coach of
'Canada's national team was in Exeter and conducted a
coaching clinic which was attended by about 50 coaches and
players from a number of area high schools.
Jim Workman asks us to pass on thanks to Bill Gilfillan
and Jim Knox for their assistance in operating the clinic.
Figure skaters register
Although official registration has been completed any
area boys and girls wishing to participate in the activities
this winter of the Exeter figure skating club may still do so.
Registrations may be made by calling the home of club
president Gaylan Josephson at 235-1576.
Due to the lack of ice in Exeter, the club has secured
ice time at the Huron Park and Hensall arenas. The badge
groups will be at the Hensall arena.
Club professional Brad Loosley of Woodstock will be
back again as the chief instructor.
Huron soccer
season ends
The Huron County Mosquito
Soccer team closed off their
successful season Saturday,
when they travelled to Greenway
Park in London to take part in
two exhibition games against the
London Memorial Selects,

members of the Huron team con-
vincingly defeated their London
Counterparts 9-0. Phil Grace
scored four goals, while Scott
Bell, Mark Flannagan, Brad
Forbes, Colin Alexander, and
Carl Krohmer bad one each.
In Game two, Huron's juniors
were joined by six atom players
from the county that included
full-backs George Pratt and Sean
Whiteford of Exeter.
The two local boys helped to
keep the London forwards at bay,
while three goals from Scott Kay
and one from Brian Tompkins
gave the junior squad a comfor-
table 4-0 victory.
The Huron County team won 12
games out of a total of 14 played
this season, and had a final goal
tally of 53-15.
