Merry Christmas
We enjoyed the recent televised hockey game between
Czechoslovakia and the Winnipeg Jets.
It certainly brought back memories of Canada Cup '76.
The brand of hockey was probably not quite up to the
Canada Cup but it was more exciting and entertaining than
a regular Wednesday or Saturday NHL telecast.
The present series between teams from Europe and the
WHA could be the start of regular season games between
teams from the two continents,
Ben Hatskin of the WHA has announced that a playoff
series of eight games, four in each country has been arrang-
ed for the winners of the WIIA Avco Cup and the European
champions.
Hatskin suggested it was quite possible some early
season games between American based teams in the WHA
could be played in Europe in the near future.
This idea sounds very reasonable as in most American
cities it is very difficult to generate much hockey interest
early in the campaign when baseball and football is
foremost on the minds of sports fans.
There seems to be something about international
hockey that brings out the best in every player par-
ticipating. Could be the pride in representing one's
country, Less penalties
The recent directive by NHL president Clarence
Campbell and his referee-in-chief Scotty Morrison to cut
down on the number of minor penalties called seems to be a
direct reversal of regulations instigated about a year ago.
The announcement said fans in the United States won't
pay to see "namby pamby" hockey. It also said at least 12
NHL clubs were losing millions of dollars in their
operations,
If the policy of forgetting to call penalties for tripping,
elbowing, etc. is adopted it will in our opinion spoil the
game.
If a player knows he won't get a penalty there will be a
lot of deliberate tripping and that should set off tempers
and fights which the league has apparently been trying to
eliminate.

Athlete of the year
The selection of Sandy Hawley for the Lou Marsh
trophy as Caned: a athlete of the year may be deserving
but we could put up a few arguments.
We're not disputing Hawley's greatness as a
thoroughbred race horse jockey. It takes a lot of nerve and
know how to win 400 races in one year and more than 3,000
by the time a jockey is 27 years of age.
One thing in Hawley's favour is the fact he gets the best
of horses to ride.
We don't know who was second in the balloting for the
award but Daryl Sittler of the Toronto Maple Leafs should
have been very close.
In the latter stages of the 1975-76 NHL season Sittler set
one record which could stand for many years and equalled
another.
His six goals and four assists for a total of 10 points in
the Leafs 11-4 victory over the Boston Bruins in early
February will long be remembered,
In the playoffs Sittler also scored five goals in one game
to tie the mark previously held by Maurice "The Rocket"
Richard.
The Maple Leaf captain continued his fine play in the
Canada Cup series with the winning goal in one game
against the Czechs and is currently in the top ten scorers in
the NHL.
Gift suggestions
This being our last column before Christmas we would
like to make a few suggestions to that fellow with the long
white beard and the red suit before he makes his deliveries
Friday night.
A good Christmas present for campaign fund com-
mittees in Exeter, Lucan, Kirkton and Crediton would be
enough donations to allow full payment of their projects.
To Fred Mommersteeg and Rocky Weise a healthy Ex-
eter Hawks junior hockey team to allow them to carry on
and bring a provincial championship back.
The same for Don Urbshott, Pete Loveless and Bill
Bourne with the Lucan-Ilderton Jets enough victories to win
the OHA Continental senior crown.
To the many competitors at the Exeter Bowling Lanes
and we are one of them a few extra strikes and the ability to
convert those pesky corner pins.
At the Exeter curling club may Santa Claus include a
few eight enders.
Santa doesn't appear to need much help in providing
ideal weather and snow conditins for the many outdoor
winter activities but some could come in handy in the New
Year,
For the euchre players at the Exeter lawn bowling
clubhouse the right cards for a few lone hands.
To the coaches at South Huron District High School,
Santa could include a six foot three forward for the basket-
ball teams; a speedy back and sturdy linemen for the foot-
ball clubs, endurance runners for the cross country teams
and a few fleet feet for the track team.
At the Exeter claybird gun club site Santa could send
20-20 vision to a few more shooters to give Bill McNutt
some more competition.
To the many young hockey players without a hockey
home this year a new arena at least for the 1977-78 season.
To the large number of area harness racing owners and
enthusiasts a pacer or trotter capable of breaking the two
minute mile.
In conclusion we would like to wish everyone a VERY
MERRY, HAPPY AND BLESSED CHRISTMAS SEASON,
I
