40 Atoms eliminated in
Silver Stick tourney
Hawks get easy win
with new coach at helm
Times-Advocate, January 6, 1977
The Exeter Atoms were
eliminated Saturday from fur-
ther competition in the annual.
Silver Stick tournament in
Forest. They dropped a close 3-2
decision to Sarnia.
In the first game of the tourney
Friday the Exeter youngsters
blanked Sarnia Township 1-0.
Goal tending featured both
games involving the Exeter
team. In the win over Sarnia
Township, Rick Gilfillan in the
Exeter nets playing his first
game of the season was out-
standing and according to coach
Arn Laithwaite, "the main
reason we were able to win,"
The only goal in the Exeter win
in the first game came from the
stick of Scott Lovie on a pass
from captain Brent Dawson in
the first minute of play in the
second period.
Goalies John Goodale and Jeff
Cook of Sarnia frustrated the
Exeter team time and time again
in the second game. Steve Leith-
waite of Exeter was in alone on
breakaways on four occasions
and was able to score only once.
Sarnia was first on the
scoreboard at the 23 second mark
of the first period and Exeter was
able to tie the score midway
through the second period on a
solo effort by Scott Lovie.
Sarnia again took the lead late
in the middle frame and the best
Exeter could do was a goal by
Steve Laithwaite on an
unassisted effort at six seconds of
the third period.
Sarnia fired the winning goal
with less than four minutes
remaining in the game.
Rick Gilfillan again played a
steady game in the Exeter nets.

popular information or the means

The Lucan-Ilderton Jets broke
even in two Ontario Hockey
Association continental Senior
league games this week and hold
a tight grip on second place in the
standing.
Wednesday the Jets lost a
golden opportunity to gain on the
league leading London Kings
when they suffered a 5-3 loss to
London.
The Jets regained their win-
ning ways Sunday night in
Woodstock with a 3-2 victory over
the Royals in sudden-death
overtime,
The Kings are on top of the
league with 39 points while the
Jets are second with 33 points.
The London club has played four
more games than the Jets. The
Stratford Perths are third with 26
points and the Preston Jesters
fourth with 24 points,
This week the Jets travel to
Preston for a Friday night
contest and will be at the London
Gardens Sunday night at 7 p.m. to
meet the Kings.
Baynham gets winner
The winning goal for the Jets in
Woodstock Sunday night came
from the stick of Exeter Junior
graduate Barry Baynham. At the
6.55 mark of overtime, Baynham
Was successful , on a series of
rebound shots toput the puck
pass Ken Kitching in the
Woodstock net. Rick Fifield and
Roth picked up assists.
The Jets moved ahead 2-0 in the
first period , and the Royals
bounced back with two successful
shots in the third period to force
overtime.
At 10.13 of the opening session
Rick Fifield was in the right spot
to flip a loose puck into the net.
Assists went to Doug Galloway
and Steve Proctor.
A jets power play attempt was
successful at 17.19 when Ed Robb
scored on a rebound on a play
started by Terry Johnson and
Jacques Cousineau.
The Royals hit the scoreboard
for the first time at 5.09 of the
third session when Ray Tilley
found the mark on a quick wrist
shot with Jets goalie John
Robertson screened on the play.
Less than three minutes later
the game was all tied up with Don
Jones scoring on a two-on-one
break to set the stage for the
sudden-death overtime.
Both clubs had excellent
chances to score in overtime
before Baynham's shot ended the
game. Goalies John Robertson of
the L-I club and Ken Kitching of
Woodstock were outstanding
throughout the contest.
Late rally fails
Against the London Kings,
Wednesday night the Jets behind
5-1 at the end of the second period
rallied' in the final 20 minutes of
play with two goals but could not
get any closer to the league
leaders,
Ken Pettit and Bill Robbins
were the London marksmen in
the first period and Ed Robb
replied for the Jets. He ripped a
shot high into the left corner of
the London net on a breakaway
set up by Jacques Cousineau and
Jamie Robb.
The Kings scored three
unanswered goals in the second
frame. Pulling the triggers were
Larry Russell, Jerry Gryp and
Chris Bannerman. Russell's
score came as a Jets power play
backfired.
The two third period goals,for
the Jets came late and from the
sticks of Jacques Cousineau and
Randy Roth. Cousineau counted
on passing help from Jamie and
Ed Robb and defencemen Doug
Galloway and Barry Baynham
provided the assists for Roth.
Two game misconduct
penalties were handed out. They
went to Brian Murphy of the Jets
as the aggressor in a second
period fight and Gerry Gryp of
London in the final frame as he
was the third man in on a fight,
Rob Kell estine and John
Roberston shared goal tending
duties for Lucan-Ilderton.
Steer
This
Way
With newly appointed coach
Ron Bogart at the controls
Sunday night, the Exeter Hawks
turned in one of their best scoring
efforts of the season as they
blanked the Port Stanley Lions
12-0,
The Hawks with Sunday's
victory at the Zurich arena held
on to second place in the Ontario
Hockey Association Junior "D"
standings with 32 points one point
behind the league leading Mit-
chell Hawks.
The Tavistock Braves are third
with 31 points but actually have
the best record having played two
games fewer than Exeter and
three less than Mitchell,
Tavistock has suffered only four
defeats while the other two clubs
have lost five times each.
The Hawks will be in action
three times this weekend, They
start the busy schedule with a
game in Seaforth, Friday night.
Saturday they will be in Hensall
to meet the Lucan Irish and the
same two clubs will tangle in
Zurich, Sunday night. Both
games are at 8 p.m.
The Lucan Irish home games
for the balance of the schedule
will be played in Hensall due to
the holdup of construction of the
Lucan arena by wintery weather
conditions.
Officials of the Exeter Minor
Hockey Association named Ron
Bogart as the new coach of the
Hawks late last week. He suc-
ceeds Glen "Rocky" Weise who
was the current coach.
Bogart coached the Exeter
bantams to a provincial cham-
pionship in 1974-75 and to the
semi-finals last year.
Good combination
While the Hawks went on a real
scoring spree against Port
Stanley goalie Randy Lovie was
just as outstanding in recording
his first shutout of the season.
The Hawks leading point getter
Ken Pinder continued to head his
team in the scoring department
with a three goal effort. Pinder
started his club away with a
successful shot on a power play at
10.15 of the opening period as he
converted passes from John Van
Gerwen and Fred Mommersteeg.
Only 20 seconds later the
Hawks were ahead 2-0 as Kim
McKinnon hit the mark on a pass
from Matt Muller.
Before the first 20 minutes had
elapsed Ken Pinder scored again
on a three-way effort with Noel
Skinner and Rick Ingram,
At 8.50 Kim McKinnon fired a
successful shot on a three-way
combination with Matt Muller
and Paul Br000ks and a minute
and half later Gerald Weido
scored with passing help from
Rick Ingram and Brian Taylor,
Rick Ingram was back with
assists on the next two goals
provided by Gerald Weido and
Matt Muller. Noel Skinner also
picked up an assist.
With only a minute and a half
left, Brian Taylor notched his
second goal of the night on a play
originated by Kim McKinnon and
Noel Skinner.
The two Exeter stars of the
game receiving McKnight Men's
Wear certificates were Ken
Pinder and Kim McKinnon.

Only cure for a flooded car-

to wait ten or fifteen minutes
(to let fuel vaporize) before
you try to start the car again.
