Spotlight Irish
By Ross Haugh

Hockey on the local front is quickly coming to a close.
The Zurich Buckeyes need only one more victory over
the. Hensall Sherwoods to wrap up the South Huron
hockey league championship.
The fourth game of the best -of -seven series goes
tomorrow night, Thursday in Hensall. If a fifth contest
is necessary it goes Sunday afternoon in Zurich.
The Lucan Irish are continuing their fine play as they
proceed down the OHA Junior 'D' playoff trail.
Three goals in the third period, the final one coming
with only 33 second left lifted the Irish to a 5-4 Friday
win over Stayner in the first game of a best -of -seven
OHA semi-final series.
The third game will be plaYed in Lucan tomorrow
night, Thursday at 8:15 p.m. Irish manager Bob Taylor
was unsuccessful in the flip of the coin and any odd
games will be played in•Stayner.
Similarily, the Lucan bantams lost the flip to
Wainfleet for any deciding game. The Lucan club after
winning the first two games of a best -of -five series was
in Wainfleet last night, Tuesday.
If a fourth game is necessary it will go Friday night
in Lucan at 8 -p.m.
Sports Show
The Toronto Sportsmen's Show which is the largest
of its kind in Canada is now‘ underway and has more
exhibits, new products and fascinating demonstrations
than ever before.
It continues all this week until Sunday at the Col-
liseum at Exhibition Park in Toronto.
If you want to be reassured that spring is here a visit
to the, Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources display
will do the trick.
The display is entitled "A Promise of Spring Hun-
dreds of Trilliums on Display" and includes exhibits on
provincial parks, minerals, wildlife and a look at forest
fires.
Fishing is a major attraction with a chance to catch
your own trout in addition to demonstrations and films
on the best in fishing equipment.
In.the arena, world famous animal trainer Doug Seus
has a spectacular show featuring four cougars weighing
in at a total. of 470 pounds.
The show is open this week on weekdays from 12 noon
to 10:30 p.m. from 10 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. Saturday and -
from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday.
Another Perfect End
•
During the last couple of weeks we have mentioned
that only two eight enders have been achieved since the
Exeter curling club was established.
Bill Mickle started refreshing minds when he pulled
off this once -}n -a -lifetime feat .this winter.
At that time we thought the only other eight ender was
put together by Clarence Down's rink. Now we find out,
that Art Cann and hismixed rink did the same trick
back in the early 1970's. Other members of the Cann
rink were Alvin Pym, Betty Coates and the late Helen
Jermyn.
For Those That Didn't Get Away
Molsons Brewery are again sponsoring their annual
fishing contest with prizes totalling $35,000. This event
heading for its 24th year is held in association with the
Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters.
The rules for the contest are simple. The main stipula-
tion is go out and catch a big fish.
There are weight standards for the 10 classes of fish
and in each case they are well below the mark of the
largest fish ever caught and quite conceivably can be
landed in many parts of Ontario.
For example, the standard weight for a northern pike
is 15 pounds while tlIe record is 40 pounds on one caught
•in 1966.
Last year's winner in the muskie division weighed 55
pounds and set a record in that department. Actually
there were two that tipped the scales at 55 pounds, but,
one was more than an inch longer than the other.
Getting back to more reasonable catches, the stan-
dards for largemouth and smallmouth bass are five and
four pounds, respectively and the records are 10 pounds,
seven ounces and 11 pounds, eight ounces.
