By ROSS HAUGH
Two Thanksgivingcelebrations in one year is more
than most people are able to enjoy.
This writer,after gobbling up some turkey back in
October as Canadians gave thanks, helped the United
States of America celebrate their Thanksgiving Thurs-
day.
We were not able to enjoy any turkey, but, did
manage a visit to the Silverdome in Pontiac, Michigan
to watch the Detroit Lions and Chicago Bears resume
their long established rivalry.
One could say there was some turkey involved
with Thursday's game. We would imagine Chicago
coach Neill Armstrong felt his players acted like
turkeys throughout most of the game. He said after the
game, "It wasn't a matter of the Lions beating the
Bears, it was the Bears beating the Bears."
As far as the Lions were concerned one could say
it was a refreshing change from an otherwise "fowl"
season. The Detroit club went into the Thanksgiving
game with only one win in their first dozen starts,
Early in the game when the Bears intercepted a
Detroit pass, the fans were really loud with their boos.
But, only moments later when the Lions were able to
score thanks to some errors by the Bears, the boos
turned into cheers.
One thing positive for the Lions this year has been
the advancement made by rookie quarterback Jeff
Komlo. Since the injury to regular signal caller Gary
Danielson, Lions coach Monty Clarke has stuck with
Komlo and he has responded and should be ready for a
bigger and better season in 1980.
More of a highlight of our trip to Pontiac was to
see the Silverdome. It is a beautiful stadium and with
the domed roof .provides excellent conditions regarless
of the weather outside.
The game as far as football goes was far from ex-
citing, but, it was different for Detroit fans who have
suffered through a long season with the Lions blowing
leads on many occasions.
The Thanksgiving win will give the Lions and their
fans new hopes for another season. Their situation
seems to be similar to the Toronto Argonauts where
they look great on paper at the beginning of the season,
but, something happens once the action gets off paper
and onto the field.
The Lions and Argonaut fans are very similar in
that they are eternal optimists, sure a championship
team will emerge in the very near future.
Time for another tirade
With- the Toronto Maple Leafs sort of slumping
again in recent games, it must be time for owner
Harold Ballard to come up with another publicity stunt
to get his charges charged up to perform at their
peak of capacity.
Perfomances in the National hockey league to date)
this season have ranged from poor to'mediocore to out-
standing.
The biggest surprise probably comes out of
Philadelphia where the Flyers were expected to
recede a bit with the loss of coach Fred Shero.
New coach Pat Quinn must have the right formula
as the Flyers have only lost one game in their first 19
starts and lead the 21 team standings.
The other big coaching change with Don Cherry
leaving Boston hasn't deterred the Bruins. With Fred
Creighton at the reins the Beantowners have lost only
three games and are but two points back of the Flyers.
Most experts predicted the four new teams by the
way of the World Hockey Association would be the
door mats of the NHL. That's not true. Two of the
earlier expansion teams in Washington and Colorado
are at the bottom of the heap with 11 points apiece.
The Hartford Whalers with Gordie Howe and com-
pany are the best of the old WHA clubs with 20 points.
Close behind with 17 each are the Quebec Nordiques
with 19 points, the Winnipeg Jets and Bobby Hull have
17 and the Edmonton Oilers trail with 12 points.
One of the biggest disappointments is in Detroit
where the Red Wings are having serious problems.
They have only 15 points to date and are last in the
Norris division.
In 19 games, the Red Wings have only managed to
score 55 goals. That's the second lowest scoring
record in the league. The Winnipeg Jets have 51 goals.
The Los Angeles Kings are highest with 92, thanks to
the high scoring of Marcel Dionne and Don Simmer,
who are one-two in the league scoring race.
A nother trade
Area hockey fans following the fortunes of two
graduates of the Exeter minor hockey system will
have a little less travelling to do to see their favorites
in action,
Paul Pooley who was in his second year with the
Kingston Canadians in the OHA Major Junior "A"
league was traded Wednesday to the Kitchener
Rangers..
It's difficult to ascertain why Paul would be traded
by Kingston as he was the top scorer of the club.
Twin brother Perry, who was also with the
Kingston junior club at the beginning of the season is
now with North York of the OHA Tier Two junior
league.
