"It all started December 30,
1976 at 294 Pryde Boulevard, and
ended at 5 a.m. Saturday, April
23,1977 at the same address."
Those were the words of Ex-
eter Hawks coach Ron Bogart as
he described the successful flight
of the Hawks to the Ontario
Hockey Association Junior "D"
championship at Friday's
awards dinner held at the
Kirkton-Woodham Community
Centre.
Bogart, who also doubled as
EMHA president, agreed to take
over the team's coaching chores
on the second last day of 1976 and
started the team on the way to
success with a 12-0 win over Port
Stanley, January 2.
In describing his role, Bogart
said, "I was not a saviour. I just
provided the discipline and direc-
tion. The boys through hard
work, built their confidence and
developed pride.
He continued, "We were
known throughout the league as a
third period team. That reputa-
tion came about because of two
reasons. We never quit and our
conditioning showed up in the
latter stages of the games, The
other teams ran out of steam."
In presenting scrolls to each
member of the Hawks from the
Province of Ontario, Huron-
Middlesex MPP Jack Riddell
said, "The win by your team
says a lot for the justification of
a new arena, Good use is being
made of the Wintario grant."
Riddell said the scrolls
presented were unique as they
commemorated the Silver
Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth' and
contained a crown in the centre.
The Hawks received plaques
from the town of Exeter,
presented by Mayor Bruce Shaw
and Councillor Lossy Fuller,
Mayor Shaw commented,
"You did us all proud, well, most
of the town proud. I am sure 99
percent of the town appreciated
the way you returned with the
championship."
The mayor was referring to
several complaints received on
the early morning fire truck
parade through the town after
the final win in Stayner.
Shaw continued, "In Stratford
and St. Marys they discussed us-
ing the fire truck in a victory
parade. Here it was done as in
past years."
"I am both sad and pleased
with your victory. I am happy
that you will start the 1977-78
season in the new arena as
provincial champions, but, sad
that a lot of the shekels this year
stayed in Zurich."
In addition to the town and
provincial presentations, a large
number of individual awards
were handed out.
Ken Pinder received a trophy
from EMHA vice-president Ray
Brooks, as the leading Hawk
scorer in the regular season with
Ironwood
golf starts
The first men's nite of the
season was held Tuesday at the
Ironwood golf course.
In "A" flight, Glen Kadechuk
and Ken Brown were deadlocked
with 74 apiece and Jim Russell
was next with a 78.
Pete McFalls with an 84 was
best in low gross in the B flight
followed by Red Fairley with an
86.
Keith Jackson topped the C
flight golfers with an 86 and
Derry Boyle recorded a 96, Rick
Funston at 116 was judged the
most honest competitor,
56 points one more than Brian
Taylor.
Phil Knight received the Bob
Baynham trophy as the top
defencernan. It was presented by
Gar Johnston. Fred
Mommersteeg Jr. received the
most gentlemanly player award
from treasurer Wayne Pearce
and Don McKellar was selected
as the most improved member of
the Hawks. His award was
presented by George Pratt.
Mr. Hockey in Exeter, Derry
Boyle, presented the rookie of
the year trophy to Jim Ferguson
while Brian Taylor received the
most valuable playoff performer
prize from manager Fred
Mommersteeg, and coach Ron
Bogart presented Randy Lovie
with the most valuable in the
regular season award,
Captain Steve Jennison
accepted the Gord Kirk trophy
for the Hawks winning the
regular season championship.
The Bogart family which in-
cludes coach Ron, his wife
Elaine and children Dave,
Ronalee and Scott instigated a
special award this year to a
player on each EMHA team who
displayed sportsmanship, depen-
dability, dedication and
perseverence over the hockey
season.
In making the presentations
the Bogarts said, "We want this
award to mean something to the
recipient because he has dis-
played these traits to his team-
mates, coach and manager. He
Come to the
Motocross Races
this Sunday 72 Noon
does not have to be the most
valuable or the highest scorer
but display the traits we men-
tioned."
Winning the Bogart Hawk
awards were Sean Whiteford,
Doug Scott, Jim Lewis, Tom
Coates, Jamie Chaffe, Steve
Pearce, Rob Smith, Ron 13iIcke
and Rick Ingram of the Hawks.

Fine finish
Friday night's annual banquet for the Exeter Hawks
was a fitting finish to a very successful season as the team
and players received numerous awards.
Each member of the team was suitably honoured by the
Town of Exeter and the Province of Ontario with scrolls
and plaques.
In presenting the Ontario awards on behalf of Premier
William Davis, Huron-Middlesex MPP Jack Riddell said
the scrolls were unique as they contained a special crown in
observing the Silver Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth.
Both town officials and Riddell are to be congratulated
in obtaining the necessary awards for the Hawks in less
than a week, This is much faster than most governmental
bodies operate,
Interest is slow
Ray Brooks, president of the Stephen Township Minor
Baseball Association tells us little interest has been shown
to date for the upcoming ball season. Brooks continued,
"I've been disappointed so far in the response, Maybe, the
weather and hockey is responsible but not many adults or
youngsters have responded.
A recent annual meeting of the group attracted only six
persons and only five prospective players answered a sur-
vey call of a few weeks ago.
Hopefully the situation will improve when the first
crack of the bat is heard.
Anyone in the areas of Crediton, Centralia, Huron Park,
Dashwood, Grand Bend and Exeter wishing to participate
as a player or helper is asked to contact Ray Brooks,
Willmar Wein, Fred Bowers, Eleanor Hodge, Russ Clarke or
Frank McIsaac.
Despite the apparent lack of interest Brooks said he
hoped pee wee teams would be organized in Crediton and
Dashwood along with bantam and midget teams.
A new lighting system has been installed at the park in
Crediton which will certainly be beneficial to all area ball
teams.
It is expected registration for all teams in the Stephen
organization will be held at the parks board room in
Crediton on Saturday morning, May 14,
Ready for ball season
While hockey is still popular as far as television
viewers are concerned, most area sports fans are looking
forward to a busy summer.
The Exeter Royals will be back in action in an attempt
to win the Southwestern Ontario Fastball Association
championship for the second straight year.
Brian Hodgins who doubled as the team's top pitcher
and manager last year is looking for some help in the
coaching department.
An on-field boss would be the ideal situation which
would allow Hodgins and the rest of the players to concen-
trate on turning in their best performances on the field.
Most of last year's Royals are expected back along with
a number of promising newcomers. It appears as if eleven
of the 1976 team will return along with Rick Schilbe, Kevin
McKinnon and Cliff Gingerich from Zurich and new Exeter
residents Dennis Smith and Bill Dreidger.
The only new club this year to make up the eleven team
group is from Huron Park. Two former Royals pitcher Gord
Mauer and catcher Dennis Bierling will team up with Huron
Park.
The other teams in the league are from Lucan, Lieury,
Parkhill, Sylvan, Ailsa Craig, Nairn, Poplar Hill,
Beechwood and West Corners.
The annual league all star game will be staged at Ex-
eter Community Park on Wednesday, August 17.
Anyone wishing to help the Royals in a playing or
managerial capacity is asked to contact Brian Hodgins at
235-0432 after 5 p.m.
Blue Jay chatter
Long before the current big league baseball season got
underway we made a prediction that the Toronto Blue Jays
would surprise a lot of people.
Our thoughts were based on several things and while a
few weeks don't make a season the Blue Jays have shown
they are very creditable and should be solvent as far as the
financial picture is concerned.
There are a lot of reasons for the success of the club so
far. The organization of the team is very strong with
Labatt's throwing in a lot of the capital. General manager
Pete Bavasi is steeped in baseball tradition and knowledge.
His father Buzzy Bavasi has been connected with ball
teams for a long time,
Before being named as Blue Jays field boss, manager
Roy Hartsfield proved his 'mettle' with the Hawaii team in
the International league.
Hartsfield and Bavasi were given plenty of time to
decide on the players they wanted and the performance of
the team so far shows they were very selective in blending
a few veterans with a lot of youngsters.
We are not sure of this but believe at least seven of the
present Jays played for Hartsfield last year.
The fan support has been fantastic for the team. The
season ticket sales are over 8,000 and we believe the
smallest crowd to date and this was for a weekday after-
noon game was over 11,000.
For the first nine home dates, the Jays have drawn a
total of 190,360 spectators.
In their first 18 games they broke even at nine apiece
and in only one game were they badly beaten and that was
9-0 by Fergie Jenkins and the Boston Red Sox.
The Blue Jays are certainly holding their own in two
departments. These are picking runners off first with
Jerry Garvin excelling there and catcher Allan Ashby in
getting more than a fair share of runners trying to steal se-
cond.
