They will meet the Goderich Vikings who swept past Norwell of Palmerston by a score of 31-0 in Tuesday's other semi-final contest. Game time Saturday is 2 p.m. Both defences played very well in the first half, The Panthers had a lot of trouble hanging onto the ball due mainly to the very slippery and treacherous field conditions. Five South Huron fumbles in the first half kept them in their own half of the field for the first 30 minutes but the defensive unit was able to contain Stratford and the game was scoreless at halftime. The complexion of the game changed quickly in the second half, In fact, it changed on the very first play. Gord Baird of the Panthers took the Stratford kickoff and was able to return it a total of 63 yards to give his club the needed momentum. Quarterback John VanGerwen gained 20 yards and a Nor- thwestern penalty gave the Panthers possession on their opposition seven yard line. On the play Gord Baird got close to the goal line but lost control of the slippery ball. Sassenachs lead darts, The Sassenachs lead the Exeter Legion mixed dart league with 37 points and an eight point lead over the runnerup Winkers. The Itchy Niters and DR's are deadlocked for third spot with 27 points apiece and the Flying Highs are next with 26 points.. Next come the Out of Space and Doublers with 25 points each and the Last Chance have 24 points. Anna Romaniuk has amassed a high score of 140 to lead the ladies in the single game department, Next come Rose Brittain with 132 and Anita Hunter at 125. Eric Heywood with the same score of 140 is best in the men's section followed by Keith Brittain and Brian Chappell with 138 each. This week's schedule is as follows: 8 p.m. Dead Enders vs Doublers Nicky Tams vs Nite Hawith Outlaws vs Winkers 9.30 p.m. Last Chance vs Flying Highs Shiphunters vs Sassenachs Robins vs Itchy Niters Out of Space vs DR's On the next series, John Van Gerwen on a fake play into the line completed a pass to Phil Knight which went for 33 yards and a touchdown. Steve Knight was good on the convert and the score was 7-0. The Panthers continued to control the play for the balance of the third period, Early in the fourth quarter, John Van Gerwen punted into the Stratford end zone. The receiver tried to return the kick but it went short. The ball was touched by a Stratford player and fumbled, Gord Baird was johnny-on-the- spot to recover for the second Good show by, SH runners The cross country runners from South Huron District High School turned in excellent per- formances in the all-Ontario championships held Saturday at Brock University in St. Catharines.

Licence DFU118 Times-Advocate, November 11, 1976 Page 14 Oust Stratford school Meet Ooderich for title Sports Spotlight By Ross Haugh Amateur sport organizers in Canada seem to be enthusiastic about the new Ministry for Fitness and Amateur Sport. The new Minister Mrs. Iona Campagnolo says she will be addressing the confused national attitude of Canadians themselves towards sport and fitnesi, Mrs. Campagnolo has already made up her mind about the level of fitness of the average Canadian. She said recently, "The one single thing I would like to achieve is get Canadians off their backsides." She continued, "I don't think that 10 percent of the peo- ple in Canada give a damn about their bodies. About 85 per- cent of our leisure time is spent in front of television sets. Canadians seem to be really reluctant to do anything that involves exercise. I'd like to do something to change that." While on the subject of physical fitness, there are a cou- ple of excellent books on jogging available. One book on jogging is available through the Ontario Recreation Society at 559 Jarvis street, Toronto and all Bata shoe stores. This booklet will help one learn the technique of jogging and plan a jogging program for your needs. Jogging can be done bydamilies, boys, girls, men and women of all ages. It is an easy, inexpensive and effective way to get into good shape. Despite its apparent simplicity there are good and bad ways to jog. The other book on jogging has been prepared for elementary and secondary school students and teachers to promote ther Olympic ideal through the educational media. It is called the Olympic Jog Book and can be secured from the CAHPER National office at 333 River Road, Vanier, Ontario. The price is $3. Good racing weekend This weekend was very successful for several area harness horses and their drivers. At Meadowlands in New Jersey, Meddlesome owned jointly by Bill Ellerington of Exeter and driver Greg Wright paced to a new lifetime record of one minute, 57 and four- fifth seconds. Congratulations to Murray Hodgson of Lucan. His four year old pacer Little Arnie won a $9,000 invitational pace at Windsor Raceway Friday night. Little Arnie also set a personal mark of only four-fifths of a second in besting some top pacers including Derby Dan and Super Baron. Little Arnie is a Tarport Arnie gelding and is trained and driven by Larry Decaluwe. Saturday was a big day for a young Exeter driver. Rob Lindenfield scored his first career victory piloting Pultusk owned by his father Arn. Congratulations to Brad Scott of Exeter who par- ticipated recently in rodeo championships at Picov Downs atAjax. Brad who has been in tfie.~.ittle Itititcrig event' at' the Exeter rodeo for the last couple of years took part in similar events at Ajax. Dalt Finkbeiner, one of the most enthusiastic sup- porters and workers of the Exeter rodeo over the past two decades has just returned from a one week stay in San Francisco. Better known as Fink, he attended the world convention of the Arabian Horse Association and also took in one of the largest rodeo and horse shows in the world. At the cow palace in the California city, the rodeo is combined with a horse show and livestock expedition. He said the interest in these types of shows in Califor- nia is tremendous with large crowds in attendance. "It seems to be their way of life with youngsters only five and six years old wearing cowboy boots and hats. Figure skaters starting Gaylan Josephson, president of the Exeter figure skating club reports that activities of his group are starting this week. Opening lessons begin this afternoon, Thursday at the Huron Park arena and pre-schoolers and badge groups take over at the Hensall arena Monday afternoon at 4:30 p.m.. Some hockey facts The New York Rangers have crazy numbers for several of their players, Goalie John Davidson wears 00, Phil Esposito has 77 on his back and Ken Hodge's sweater number is 88. Esposito wears 77 because he couldn't get his usual 7 away from Rod Gilbert. The recent Canada Cup hockey series made a profit of about 2.2 million dollars. Of this,l.1 million dollars goes to the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association and the other half will be split between the penision funds of the NHL and WHA on a 29-2 basis representing the number of players each league had on the original Team Canada roster. Former NHL goalie great,Jacques Plante is now work- ing for a Montreal catering firm, His primary concern is the concession stands at the new Olympic Stadium. Hal Loycoe, the first coach of the Vancouver Canucks when that club made the NHL through expansion has gone to Holland to coach. Terry Crisp who played his junior hockey in St. Marys is apparently headed for a coaching career. Crisp who helped the Philadelphia Flyers to two Stanley Cups has been sent to the Springfield Indians to serve as coach while John Hanna recuperates from acci- dent injuries. Change in homes The Exeter Hawks will be playing their next home game at the Hensall arena. It will be Sunday night at 8 p.m. with the Belmont Bombers supplying the opposition. The switch to Hensall is for one game only. The balance of the Hawks games will be played at the Zurich arena. Continental scats According to the latest Continental league statistics released by Nick Martin of Stratford, several members of the Jets are zeroing in on several scoring plateaus. Jacques Cousineau had 99 assists and only five away from the 200 point mark since he joined the Jets. Cousineau had a good scoring weekend and is probably over both of these marks by this time. Doug Galloway has picked up 96 points to date. Defencernan Barry Baynham is the fourth Continental competitor to hit the 175 mark in cal-eer minor penalties. I. •
