Most of the game belonged, to. the Centennials, They were constantly aggressive, but again.had their problems with several luckless chances, especially in the closing half.

Ten minutes later, with Exeter pressing, Alfons Weersink stuck a low ball into the Lucan net for the Centennials' 4-3 win, Exeter plays at home at Canner's field Sunday, June 15. With a game time of 4 p.m., the Centennials meet provide one of the bigger Forest; a fast and clever tests of the season in. Ausable team, and usually able to soccer. A week ago we were in a sad mood in reporting the retirement of John Hiller and the withdrawal of the Lucan-Ildertop Jets of the Continental senior league. This week it was Gordie Howe's turn to announce he was officially ending his career which started in the fall of 1946. It's not quite the same with Howe as Hiller and the Jets. He is ending his playing days during the off- season in reasonably good health despite his age of 52 and ends on a good note, Howe scored his first NHL goal on October 16, 1946 and his 800th regular season goal on February 29 of this year. The native of Floral, Saskatchewan is the only professional hockey player to compete in five different decades. Howe set a number of NHL records that will sure- ly never be equalled, He won the Hart trophy as the league's most valuable player on six occasions, cap- tured the scoring championship the same number of times and was the first recipient of the Lester Patrick trophy. Gordie surpassed a one point a game mark throughout his career with 801 goals and 1,049 assists good for 1.850 points in 1,767 regular season games. The only puckster on the scene now that has a chance to catch some of Howe's marks is Wayne Gretzky. Gretzky got off to a fine start this week by winning the Hart and Lady Byng trophies for his performance in his first year in the NHL. Howe and Gretzky played on the same line for the WHS in the 1979 all-star series against the Soviet Union and are the best of friends. About Gretzky, Howe said, "I think the guy who engraves the NHL trophies should learn how to spell his name correctly because he will likely be using it a lot in the future."
