Sunday Both clubs are in conten- tion for the B -division title in Ausable district soccer The Park opened scoring at 25 minutes when Tony Porciello took advantage of a defensive mix-up near the Exeter net At 62 minutes. Dave Burbank got the Park's second goal on a ball fed through the centre. Exeter's only score came at , 75 minutes when John Rasenberg worked loose for a breakaway through the Huron Park defence Exeter pressed in the se- cond half after playing listless soccer for the first 45 minutes. Despite a total ef- fort by the captain. Dick Lord. the Centennials appeared unable to get going in a similar way until they'd fallen two goals behind. Rasenberg's single. however. at least brings the sides nearer in the count of total points to win the two - game fixture. The clubs play again at Huron Park. Sunday at 2 p m.

The afternoon of April 26 1970 was the most important time in the life of the man - who was f'esponsible for the organization and success of the Lucan-Ilderton Jets hockey team. Don Urbshott has stepped down as manager of the Jets after 12 years in that capacity. In an interview Friday, Urbshott told the T -A "I '1I never forget that Sunday afternoon more than nine years ago when Jim Bender scored the winning goal in the second period of sudden death overtime to give us the OHA intermediate 'B' championship." Bender's goal gave the Jets the provincial title over a strong and tough Napanee club. The game was played at the Huron Park arena. With the help of Steve Storey. Urbshott established the Lucan-Ilderton Jets in the fall of 1968 in an attempt to bring an Ontario cham- pionship to the two small communities. In addition to the 1970 victory the Jets moved on to • higher company in the new OHA Continental senior "B" league and won the cham- pionship in 1912-73 and 1974- 75. Urbshott's retirement this year is only partial. While giving up the active managerial duties with the Jets he will continue to be their contact man with the OHA. About his retirement as manager. Urbshott com- mented. "I have had many good times, met many fine people and if I had it to do over again. I'd do it the same way." He continued. "I hope I have had a small part in giving fans of this area a good brand of hockey. I'm sure very few communities the size of Lucan and. Ilderton have had the op: portunity to support a good senior hockey team." Urbshott now at the age of 48 played defence for the Jets up until a couple of years ago He reminisced about his playing days saying, "One of the highlights of my career was`playing with a father and his son. When I started playing intermediate hockey at the age of 17 Ken Robb was one of my team-mates and his son Jamie was with us for the last five or six years of my career with the Jets. - On the future of the Jets. Urbshott said, "I've been involved long enough and the club's in good hands with Pete Loveless as manager and Bill White the coach. There should be more local players available in two or three years " On the management aspect of hockey. l'rbshoU concluded. "As you get older you realize how important managers are to a team. t think back to my managers, fellows like Mery Hord and the late Haney Langford and Karl O'Neill They felt as bad as the players when we lost." ' Despite his retirement, Urbshott who as known as "Red" during his playing days and now referred to as the "Silver Fox" will still be involvedin various ways. His vast knowledge of hockey and the OHA is tapped every once and awhile by other teams and hockey officials. If a con- troversy comes up he is often called on for his opinion. At the OHA annual meeting oriApril 24, 1976 Don Local minor soccer season concluded The Exeter Centennial soccer club ended its minor division season for 1979 at South Huron District High School, Saturday morning. The club did it with four games involving parents and coaches against clubs or squirt, atom. mosquito and pee -wee division players. The games preceded a lunch and presentation of trophies. In each of the matches, the minors were winners. The squirts beat fathers and coaches 3-1 in a shoot-out following a 1-1 tie in regular time. In that game the squirt goal was scored by Chad Miller, with Art Hunking getting the parent marker. Squirt marksmen in the shoot-out were Derek Sch- wartzentruber, Paul Humphrey and Said Osman. Ross blathers collected the single parent goal in the tie- breaker. The Gunners and Bullets, atom -division clubs, each won 1-0. The Gunners on 'a goal by Ron Loucks, and the Bullets - on one by Brian Quinn.

Donald Boersma got the game goal, and Steve Coates and Mark Winters scored tie -breaking points against a single for the parents by Bill Smits: During trophy presen- tations. the squirt Blizzard, coached by Martin DeBruyn, won the best team award for season play. Most valuable player awards went to Tom Rolph, squirt Strikers; Henry DeBruyn, squirt Bliziard; Angelo Vilos. atom Gunners; and Chris Bierling, atom Bullets. Kenneth Boersma won the MVP award for the mosquito division; and John VanEsbroeck the MVP award among pee -wee -players. Ron Loucks, captain of the squirt Gunners, won a coaches award for ex- cellence of play, which was donated and presented by Chris Bradford. There were approximately 110 youngsters involved in minor soccer locally this year. In summing up that fact, club president Ron Helm, who also doubled as pee -wee coach. had high praise for parent support, and for the work of coaches involved. The coaches included Frank Kints, Chris Bradford, Lorne Rideout, Martin DeBruyn and George Eisenschink.

His wife Elvy is also trying to retire from active ,duties with the Jets but, is having a few problems. She was pressed back into service a week ago to look after the production of the 1979-80 Jets program. During the big years'of the Jets, Mrs. ,Urbshott was known as the club's number one fan, cheer leader and criticizer of referees. Her attitude towards referees has mellowed considerably commenting, "I'm actually getting to be good friends with some of them. They really have a tough job." On the subject of violence in minor hockey Don Urb- shott said, "I don't think eliminating body checking is the answer. Getting rid of the high sticks would do the trick. He continued, "Body checking is a part of the game. Remember, there is a big difference between a body check and board slamming. High sticking causes all of the problems on the ice." LADIES GOLF Edith Boyle, Gail Skinner and Phyllis Shute were the winners in Wednesday's regular ladies golf night at the Ironwood golf course. WANTED Cars & Trucks for scrap and resaleable parts.
