course, Tuesday.

In Ausable league
Centennials get soccer draw
West Williams capitalized on
let-downs by Exeter Centennials
Sunday, and turned an Exeter 2-0
lead into a 2-2 tie. The clubs were
playing in Ausable district soccer
at Canner's Field.
A close defence, and sharp
goal-keeping by Centennial's
Paul Van Esbroeck, held off
early first-half attacks by West
Williams. Exeter then turned the
flow of the game, and missed
with scoring chances before
centre Ron Funston sent the
locals into a 1-0 lead.
Funston, who now has eight for
the new season, repeated for a
goal early in the last half. And
until about the mid-way point the
Centennials' were in control of
play. A let-up of pressure by
Exeter, however, allowed Matt
Roelands to get his club back into
the game with a goal,
Exeter rallied again for a pair
of missed chances, but then for a
second time let the pressure ease
enough for Nick Coates to collect
the tying goal for West Williams.
Next Sunday the Centennials
play as visitors at Taxandria.
The following Sunday they will be
at Forest. The club's next home
game at Canner's Field will be
Sunday, June 5. All games are at
2 p.m.

Finally, after everyone had
gotten their weekend chores
done, (Bruce Shaw had to clean
out his pool,) and after a great
flurry and fluster of players
arriving at odd hours and
eventually getting teamed up
with their proper partners, the
first tennis tournament of the
season got under way, Sunday
afternoon.
Thirty two enthusiastic
members of the Exeter Tennis
Club participated in the event
which produced fun, exercise and
some pretty good tennis.
Ron Cottrell and Marlene
Parsons won over Bill Dinney
and Vincent Glaab in the one set
of semi finals, while in the other
set, Doug Mock and Randy
Parsons took it from Dave Bogart
and Jay Campbell.
In the final round, Doug and
Randy came out the winners over
Ron and Marlene, 6-2, to be
declared the flight A champions,
By Art Whilsmith In the consolationsemi -finals,
Fran Shaw and Brian Wedlake
won over Graham and Agnes
Cottrell, while Jack Underwood
and Gary_ Parsons went under to
Damien Solomon and Ruth
Mercer. Ruth and Damien' took a
close - match from Fran and
Brian, 4-2, to win the consolation
prize.
During the matches, refresh-
ments and friendly fellowships
were enjoyed by those whd were
not on the courts.
TIPS
- Always use your other hand to
guide your racket back. This
forces .your body to turn for
better stroking of the ball,
- Concentsrate on the ball at all
times.
- Determine where the ball will
bounce, then get into position to
hit it just in front of your body
and follow through with your
stroke.
A large number of area golfers
participated in Saturday's
tournament at the Ironwood
course sponsored by Massey
Ferguson and the local dealer
Gabby Mol of Sherwood (Exeter)
Limited.
In the first flight, Glen
Kadechuk fired a 74 to take low
gross honours with Barry South-
cott next in line with an 80 and
Larry Wein was third at 81.
Rick Schilbe with a 69 was tops
in the low net department, Next
came Dan Johnson at 70 and
Wayne Brunzlow carded a 70.
The low gross score in the
second flight was recorded by Joe
Regier with a 90. Next came
Fred Wells at 91 and Pete
Coburn with a 94.
John Forest's 70 was the low
net score with Terry Price and
Torn Voerman next in line.
Jackie Leeuwenburg was the
top female performer; John
Morgan took a prize for the
longest drive on the ninth hole
and Mike Cushman's shot was
closest to the hole from the fourth
tee.

Rodeo back
It was certainly welcome news of a few weeks ago that
the Exeter rodeo will be continued this year.
Directors of the rodeo had decided late last fall to dis-
continue the annual event and held a banquet which was
supposed to wrap things up for the time being at least.
But, this spring, the rodeo bug appeared to hit a couple
of the dedicated directors. Fellows like Dalt Finkbeiner,
Jack Malone, Carf Cann, Jim Scott and a few others decid-
ed to take another look at the possibility of keeping the pop-
ular two day show in operation.
With the help of rodeo stock operator Mel Wakefield,
the local committee was able to justify continuing the rodeo
and be assured of a profit.
Wakefield has agreed to turn over 20 percent of the
gross gate receipts to the Exeter rodeo group and in turn
any profits will go to the South Huron Recreation Centre
fund raising campaign,
The management committee of the Rec Centre has
pledged their support to the rodeo and provide the facilities.
Now all that is necessary is for everyone involved with
the rodeo to do all they can to make it successful as all
profits go to the centre, It is expected rodeo monies will go
to a specific project at the Centre, probably furniture for
the auditorium.
The local rodeo directors will be expected to provide
some services for Wakefield but this should not create near
as much work as they have encountered in years gone by.
The Exeter Agricultural Society is again expected to
man the gates and take care of admissions and all service
clubs and other interested groups are being asked to assist
with concession booths and in other ways and to also
channel their monies to the Rec Centre fund.
The big change in the rodeo for 1977 is in the switch of
dates. For the first time since it was started more than 10
years ago it will not be held on Labour Day weekend.
This year the rodeo will be held on Saturday and Sun-
day, August 6 and 7 with afternoon shows both days begin-
ning at 2 p.m.
The rodeo directors will continue to sponsor and stage
the rodeo dance which always proves very popular to local
dance enthusiasts and rodeo visitors as well.
There is a very slight possibility that the Rec Centre
auditorium may be ready by August 6 but directors have
also tentatively booked the Rec Centre at Huron Park for
the dance.
We wish to give a tip of our 'cowboy hat (if we had one)
to the same faithful directors who continue to come out
meeting after meeting in an attempt to keep their favorite
project alive.
It's fellows like Dalt Finkbeiner, Jim Scott, Don Dear-
ing, Carf Cann, Tom Yellow, Norm Whiting and Jack
Malone who do a tremendous job in handling the
secretarial duties. Hugh Kennedy is this year's rodeo chair-
man and Carf Cann will again be the treasurer.
Congratulations
We wish to pass on our belated congratulations to Mona
Hodgins and Dave Bogart for their fine accomplishment in
winning the WOSSA junior doubles badminton cham-
pionship.
This is the first time in more than 20 years that South
Huron representatives have been able to bring a trophy
home from the Western Ontario Secondary Schools com-
petitions.
We believe it was about 1956 that Bev Sturgis won the
senior singles title.
Congratulations again to Mona and Dave and coach Pat
Rowe.
High in scoring
In a recent copy of the Hockey News we spotted two
familiar names well up in the scoring standings of the Tulsa
Oilers of the Central Hockey league.
Dan Gloor, a Mitchell native who was a top star with
the Mitchell juniors several years when they battled with
the local Hawks was second in scoring for Tulsa with 76
points and he only spent 18 minutes in the penalty box.
Placing sixth with 49 points was Cam Botting. He will
be remembered as a member of the Haliburton juniors who
met the Hawks in two consecutive junior finals.
The Toronto Maple Leaf crowds at home were up by 2,-
159 and the New York Islanders showed a rise of over 21,-
000.
National Hockey League attendance fell off a record
391,477 in the regular season just completed, with the
Chicago Black Hawks leading the decline by dropping 112,-
600 from a year ago.
Chicago was one of nine teams showing a decline. The
others were Boston, Cleveland, Detroit, Los Angeles,
Minnesota, Pittsburgh, St. Louis and Vancouver.
Buffalo, the New York Rangers and Philadelphia once
again had automatic sellouts for every home game. In most
cases, the six remaining teams that showed improved
attendance had only minimal gains. The largest increase
was shown by the Washington Capitals, who attracted 43,055
more fans this season than a year ago.
On the road, the record-setting Montreal Canadiens,
surprisingly did not attract the largest crowds. The
Philadelphia Flyers proved to be the NHL's best drawing
card, attracting an average of 14,508 fans for their 40 road
games. Montreal averaged 14,061.
Other averages for road games were: New York
Islanders, 13,471; Boston, 13,244; Chicago, 13,072; New
York Rangers, 12,900; Buffalo, 12,870; Toronto, 12,759;
Colorado, 12,620; Vancouver, 12,601; Detroit, 12,592;
Minnesota, 12,558; Cleveland, 12,536; Atlanta, 12,423;
Pittsburgh, 12,363; Washington. 12,108; Los Angeles, 12,054,
and St, Louis, 11,986.
