HOCKEY
Exeter won au O.H.A. fixture at.
the Dome rink Friday evening when
they defeated the Goderich team 13
to 9 in. a somewhat listless game.
The crowd was not as large as at
the previous games. Goderich start-
ed the scoring and were leading at
the end of the first and second
periods. The Goderich defense fell
down on the job and the locals ran
up the score in the first ofthe third.
Goderich are winners of first place
in the group and Exeter gets second
plane. These two teams will play
off for group honors, home ' and
home games, goals to count. The
Exeter team goes . to Goderich to-
night (Wednesday,) The return
game will be played here on Friday
night.
GODERICH WINS SENIOR
NORTHERN
The following report of. the game
at Goderich appeared in the London
Free Press:
In the second game ofthe home -
and home games in the senior
Northern, Goderich defeated Exeter
by a score of 5-2, winning the round
by four goals. The visiting team
putup a lusty battle and in the first
two periods had the Iocals worried
with their back checking breaking
up the sailors' combination that had
overwhelmed St. Marys in their last
game. Exeter scored their first
goal when Chase carried the puck
across his own goal mouth Gode-
rich equalled in the second period,
which also was , marked by close
checking. Exeter expects yet to give
the Goderich boys a battle in the O.
H.A. and on to -night's form will do
ses. A votes of thanks was tendered soxeter—Goal,`: Wolper; defense,

EXETER DEFEATED BY SARNIA
In a fastand excitinggame of
hockey in the Sarnia Arena on Sat-
urday afternoon the Exeter High
School 'juniors held the Sarnia
team to a 2 to 1 score. The Sarnia
crew are fast but they had to hustle
all the way and were extremely
lucky to come out victorious. For
the first two periods the game went
scoreless and although the teams
battled up and down the ice, both
teams doing their uttermost to
bulge the twine, neither.was able to
do so till the third period, owing to
the stellar'efforts of the two goalies.
The play was fast and clean', few
penalties being banded ,out but these
proved costly to Exeter. Pollen in
centre for Exeter: played a fine game
working hard to get agoal and was
rewarded near the end of the seine
by scoring Exeter's only goal. ,bley
proved a strong bulwark in defence
although tired out from Friday
