Page 10 Times-Advocate, March 17, 1977 Sports Spotlight By Ross Haugh Good news for the Blue Jays Canada's newest major league baseball team the Toronto Blue Jays are going to be in for a good season in their first start if the prediction of an American psychic can be believed. Appearing on CFPL radio with Bill Brady Tuesday morning, Jay Bell of Phoenix, Arizona said the Blue Jays would enjoy a year "much better than most people expect." On the 1978 season for the Blue Jays, Bell offered, "They will be an absolute smash and will be totally accepted." Bell is the same person who appeared last fall with Brady and predicted Jimmy Carter would win the United States presidential election in November. The Blue Jays are a sure thing to be a success as far as spectators are concerned. More than 8,000 season tickets have already been sold and opening day on April 7 is already close to a sell-out. More general admission tickets may be available for the first game when erection of the outfield fence is com- pleted. The pre-season ticket sales far exceed those of many established clubs and in particular the San Francisco Giants who at one time appeared to be destined to transfer to Toronto. The season ticket sales have already put more than four million dollars in the Blue Jays treasury and this certainly should make for a very stable and firm financial position. Plenty of entertainment A visit to the Huron Park arena Sunday afternoon at 3 p.m. should ensure area sports fans of an enjoyable hour or two of entertainment. While the event is being listed as a hockey game the prime commodity could be humour. The game will actually be hockey but the fare offered may be a bit on the funny side. Pitted against each other will be Team 10 from CFPL television and a squad made up of coaches from the Exeter Minor Hockey Association. The local club will likely be in for a storm or two during the afternoon if weather forecasters Judy Savoy and Bill Hutchings live up to their reputations. Most of the Channel 10 regulars are expected to be in the lineup. These include fellows like Jack Burghart, Pete James, Dan MacDonald, Ted Kostecki, Wayne Rogers and George Clarke, to name only a few. Adding a little to the game will be Peaches, the four footed friend of Pirie Mitchell, host of CFPL's talent hour. We hope Peaches is a little more awake then she was during a similar game a year ago. At that time Peaches slept most of the time in the penalty box. The EMHA team is loaded with coaching talent although some of the members may have a little trouble in putting their theories into practice. The game is being sponsored by the Exeter Kinsmen club and all proceeds will go to support minor hockey in Ex- eter. Racing popular Harness horse racing continues to be very popular in this area and many owners and drivers are enjoying a very successful season. One who was very successful as a part-time trainer and driver has decided to make the racing business a full time career. He is Jack Darling who gave up his post as manager of the Clover Farm market at Huron Park. Jack has seven or eight horses of his own which he trains and also is available to catch drive for other owners. Darling was listed last week as the top percentage driver at Western Fair Raceway with a mark of .465. It was the first time Jack was able to make the Western ratings because he was usually having only a couple of drives a week and didn't qualify. In the top driving competition Fred Maguire of Ailsa Craig is second and Jim Wallace of Crediton third. Other area drivers who are enjoying successful years include Ken and Andy Hardy, Clarence Young, Neil McRann, Larry Decaluwe, Jim Rundle, Dennis Morrissey and others we fail to remember at the moment. Missille Almahurst owned jointly by Bill Ellerington and Bob Pooley has won three straight at American tracks and the feature at Western Raceway Saturday was won by Able Baron owned by Doug Courtney of Grand Bend. Able Baron showed well last year as a two year-old and is staked in many of the top three-year old pacing events this year. In his young career Able Baron has amassed win- nings of more than $50,000. Local gymnastics While speaking about gymnastics at the show in Toron- to, one doesn't have to travel that far to see a display of gymnastics. The Exeter recreation department will be presenting their annual gymnastics recital at South Huron District High School this Saturday night. The show gets underway at 7 p.m. and everyone of the youngsters participating in classes each Saturday will have the opportunity to show their talents to their parents and friends.

Both teams were held at bay by goalies Peter Dearing, Bart Powell and Jeff Bannister until the 5:10 mark of the final period when Scott Batten notched the game's only goal. He had been left alone beside the net and was fed a perfect pass that he tipped into the corner. Assisting on the play were Steve Riddell and Dave Underwood. The lead changed hands three times in Saturday's 4-4 tie with Ilderton at Huron Park. Ilderton started the scoring after only 40 seconds, but Scott Batten took a pass from Mike Murray to even the count and then Bill Glover scored I unassisted to give Exeter their first lead. After Ilderton knotted the count late in the first, Dave Shaw fired a tally early in the second, but Ilderton came back with two more to take a 4-3 lead into the final period. Mike Clark notched the equalizer at the 5:50 mark on a play with Shaw.
