Midgets
preparing for
playoffs
The Seaforth Midgets have won
tournaments in Kincardine,
Wingham, and Sarnia. They are the
resigning Silver Stick Champions.
But there's no time for sitting back
now.
Seaforth is pitted against cross -
county rival Exeter in the semi-
finals of the A11 -Ontario
Championship. The two teams have
met twice so far this season. The
first game was all the way back on
September 30. Seaforth,
shorthanded entering the game, had
to go without the services of Wayne
Schoonderwoerd on Steve McInally
and coach Roy Gingerich. The
game was fast, relatively clean, and
ended in a 1-1 tie.
The second time Seaforth met
Exeter was in the semi-finals of the
Silver Stick. Seaforth missed
several glorious opportunities early
and had to rely on a late goal by
Dean Finnigan to pull them through
the game with the win.
This series could quite possible be
the toughest obstacle in the way of
the Seaforth Midgets. Only one
team will scale the wall to victory.
Only one team will cross the desert,
weather the storm, and capture the
gold that awaits. Enough
metaphors? Thought so.
ON TAP
The first game of the series is
tonight (Wednesday) at 9:00 in
Exeter. Other game times will be
posted at the arena.

PUCK PICKIN' - A member of the Milverton squad tries unsuc-
cessfully to dig out a puck in front of the Seaforth net in Novice II
hockey playoff action at the Seaforth arena on Saturday.
Fords ahead of Chevies
Thirty-three Seniors were out to
bowl on Friday afternoon at Star-
light Lanes. High single for the
ladies was bowled by Olave Little
with a 230. Mary Finlayson had
ladies high triple with a 5-7. Eric
Matzold had mens high single of
263 and 605 triple but Ron Bennett
came through for the Fords with a
606 triple. Other over 200 scorers
were John Aubin with a 231 John
Van Loon 228, Campbell Wey 205,
and Ron Bennett 220. Bowling well
over their average for the day were
Nancy Mitchell and Neil Hodgert.
Despite being in the cella the Olds
had high pinfall for the day losing
their third game by two pins. The
same fate befell the Toyotas as they
lost a game to the Buicks by two
pins. The Fords are still in top
place but the Chevies and Chryslers
are closing the gap in points.
Best wishes from the league go to
Hazel McNaughton who is in
Seaforth Hospital. The Senior Bow-
lers wish her a speedy recovery.
Good bowling until next week.
Cents face Lucan Irish next
Division finials are "old hat" for
the Lucan Irish Six. And it's a hat
the Seaforth Centenaires would sure
like to try on for size again soon.
To do so the Cents will have to
get past the Irish in their Ontario
Hockey Association Junior Devel-
opment League Western Division
semi-finals which open tonight
(Wednesday) at 8:15 in Lucan.
Game two in the best -of -seven
playoff is Friday night at 8:30. at
Seaforth.
The odds must favour the Irish
who are gunning for an amazing
ninth -straight appearance in the
division final, and finished second
during this regular season - 17
points ahead of the sixth-place
Centenaires, whose strongest finish
since their championship season m
1985-86 came two seasons back
when they took these same Irish to
six games in the semi-finals.
But the odds also said the
Seaforth Juniors would be only
watching this week. They aren't.
They upset the heavily -favoured
Exeter Hawks with a surprising
sweep in the first round of the
playoffs. The Irish advanced Friday
by eliminating the Alvinston Flyers
in six games, three of which went
into overtime, one of those double
overtime.
Lucan can certainly put the puck
in the net, with all kinds of size,
skill and depth up front. Paul
McLlwain was Seaforth's only 20-
goal scorer this season (26 G 28
A - 54 Pts.) but the Irish, who are
affiliated with the junior B London
Nationals, have four. (#11) Greg
Deprest, 36-55-91; (#25) Dwayne
Price, 23-32-55; (#20) Rob Davis,
24-27-51; and (#19) Steve Moore,
20-22-42, (despite missing six
weeks of the season with vision
problems).
Where the Irish are perhaps not
quite as strong this year, as in
seasons past, is behind the blueline,
although the late -season acquisition

of the much -coveted Jamie Hicks
from London high school hockey
ranks may certainly alter this.
Goaltenders Steve Watson (3.39
goals against average) and Stuart
Ashton (4.07) are certainly far
superior to the stoppers Seaforth
faced in the first round of the
playoffs, but maybe not quite up to
the standard of some of the all-star
goalies Lucan has had during its
eight -season run.
The two teams faced off against
each other five times during the
regular season with Lucan holding
a slight edge, winning three times
and outscoring the Cents 21-17.
Seaforth beat the Irish 4-3 in over-
time on a Wednesday night at
Lucan early in the season, and
hosted them to a 7-5 loss about a
month ago. In the other games the
Irish beat the Centenaires in
Seaforth 4-1 and 5-4, and 4-1 at
Lucan.

THE PURSUIT SQUADRON
"We spray
Pursuit PPI
and post to
spread our
work load:"
\cit f Icilliilti\l'iiy, Bruns 'I , Ontario
Above all, Neil Hemingway counts on
PURSUIT for control of annual grasses and
broadleaf weeds. "The majority of our acres
have problem weeds such as triazine-resistants,
lamb's quarters, pigweed and foxtail. One pass
through the field with PURSUIT, and those
problems are gone."
Neil farms with his wife, Donna, on 2200 acres
in Huron County. To spread the work load, they
use PURSUIT both preplant incorporated and
post emergent. "We choose to use PURSUIT in
PPI to spread the work, and post -emergent so
that we get the benefit of a contact spray."
They recently switched to PURSUIT from a
program of split application of preplant
incorporated and a follow-up pre -emergent
spray. "We wanted a more dependable program,
one which would get us great weed control
with one pass through the field. That one -pass
confidence is why I will continue to use and
recommend PURSUIT."
Top soybean growers like Neil Hemingway
rely on PURSUIT for the peace of mind that
comes from knowing that PURSUIT will control
their grass and broadleaf weeds - including
velvetleaf, nightshade and triazine-resistants -
under any kind of growing conditions.
Performance. Consistency. Flexibility. That's
what control's all about.
You're always in control of soybean weeds
