A total of 28 television stations across the country will be showing the six original NHL teams as they play each other in tournament style. The series has already been taped as the original teams met on Labour Day weekend in a four day tour- nament in a suburban Toronto arena. The champion- ship team played a total of seven games on the way to the title. The 1982.83 event has attracted many new faces in- cluding former stars Bobby Hull, Stan Mikita, Vic Had- field, Red Berenson, Ken Hodge, Alex Delvecchio, Doug Favell and Paul Henderson. In the first year of the series, Bobby Hull was a television commentator, but, this time around he lac- ed on his skates. Four of the six team coaches are in hockey's Hall of Fame. Milt Schmidt coaches Boston, Dickie Moore heads the Canadiens, Sid Abel masterminds the Detroit Red Wings and Red Kelly was the Toronto coach. The other two behind the bench bosses are Rudy Pious at Chicago and Red Sullivan with the Rangers. Although the series has been completed we don't know which team was the winner, but, we will take a guess. The Chicago Black Hawks appear to have a fairly star studded team with fellows like the Hull brothers, Pierre Pilotte, Pit Martin, Chico Maki, Ab McDonald, Doug Mohns, Bill White, Lou Angotti and Reg Fleming. Heading the Boston Bruins are Les Binkley, Ed Chadwick, Gary Doak, Darryl Edestrand, Fern Flaman, John Bucyk, Ken Hodge, Leo Labine, Murray Oliver and Bobby Sciunautz. Big names in the Detroit Red wings lineup include Norm Ullman, Mickey Redmond, Larry Jeffrey; Den- nis Hextall, Alex Delvecchio, Bill Gadsby, Danny Grant, Nick Libett and Roy Edwards. In the Canadiens lineup are Don Awrey, Junior. Langlois, Red Berenson, Yvan Cournoyer, AndrePro- novost, Ken Mosdell, Claude Larose and Terry Harper. Big names in the Rangers roster include Ab Demar- co, Harry Howell, Rod Selling, Andy Bathgate, Vic Had- field, Bill Fairbairn, Andy Hebenton, Earl Ingarfield, Bob Nevin and Dean Prentice. Representing the Maple Leafs will be Mary Ed- wards, Brian Glenne, Jim McKenny, Gus Mortson, Mike Pelyk, Ron Ellis, BillyHarris, Paul Henderson, Danny Lewicki, Sid Smith, Pete Stemkowski, Erroll Thompson and Mike Walton. Successful midget camp The chance of a lifetime was the general consen- sus as some of finest midget aged hockey players and referees converged on Queen's. University at Kingston for the second annual Hockey Ontario Development Camp. Held in conjunction with the Scotiabank Hockey College, the camp involved on an off -ice session expos- ing participants to all facets of the game from scrim- mages to lectures on a number of topics ranging from Physiology to preparing for international competition. Each referee and player had to pass three entrance requirements. They had to have a good scholastic stan- • dings, have leadership potential and an outstanding level of hockey skills. The nine member coaching staff Awas headed by Winnipeg Jets coach Tom Watt, Bill Mahoney from the Huron Hockey School and junior "A" coach Don McKee. Former NHL referee and Hockey Ontario referee technical director Vern Buffey led a four man staff while the new hockey trainers program was headed by Bob Firth. Some of the instructors included NHL performer Darryl Sittler and referees Scotty Morrison, John McAuley and John` D'Amico and Brian Kilrea and Sherry Bassin from the OHA. The trainers' program was an innovation this year. Sports medicine is playing an ever increasing role in all sports and its importance has been downplayed in' the past. Added to this year's camp was the selection of eight camp participants to attend an 11 day leadership train- ing course at Bark Lake in June, 1983. They will be spon- sored by the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation. On successful completion of this course, each will be invited back to the 1983 Hockey Ontario development camp as assistant counsellors. Lucan soccer to conclude The windup banquet of the Lucan Minor Soccer Association is being held Sunday afternoon, October 17 at 4 p.m. in the Lucan Community Centre. The guest speaker will be international soccer star and champion of a number of super athlete competitions over the last couple of years. Any further information on the windup may be ob- tained by phoning 227-4147. Molting Hawks tie. in Oldtimer tilt A third period goal by Bill Pincombe on a pass from Mike Cushman enabled the Exeter. Molting Hawks to get a 3-3 tie with Dorchester in a Western Ontario oldtimers hockey game at the South Huron Rec Centre Monday night. Cushman opened the Ex- eter scoring in the first period on a three way passing effort with Pincombe and Gord Slaght. After Dorchester knotted the count at 1-1, Keith Ahrens shot the Molting Hawks in front again as he converted a pass from Walt Tiedeman. The next game for the local oldtimers will be Saturday night when they travel to Dor- chester to meet CFB London.

Senior coach Rog Bogart. salts a win in Palmerston to- day "is a must to stay in playoff contention." About Thursday's loss to Northwestern Bogart added, "We missed a field goal and were stopped on the one yard line late in the first half. We should have been ahead 10-8 at the half. That might have made for a different game. We didn't seem to have much desire in the second half." The senior Panthers found themselves in a hole as they drew a penalty on the opening 'kickoff and couldn't get a ground attack going to get out of trouble.
