Payne powers Mohawks
By Fred Groves
EXETER - Just who is this guy
wearing No. 22 for the Exeter Mo-
hawks?
He was what you might call a
fringe player last year but this Win-
ter Greg Payne has already gotten
five goals.
Sunday night he scored twice to
lead the Mohawks to a 3-2 South-
ern Counties Senior 'A' hockey win
over the Dorchester Dolphins.
The victory saw the locals up
their record to 11-3. Sunday they
will take their eight game winning
streak against the visiting Strathroy
Sharks.
Payne didn't see a lot of ice time
last year but he is in beuer shape
not only physically but mentally.
"I'm coming to the rink more. I
have a different schedule at work, I
just hope things keep going up,"
said Payne.
He has a scoring streak going,
connecting at least once now in the
last three games.
"Everytime I come to the rink I
want to score," he said.
Following a scoreless first peri-
od, Tim Duff scored for the
ns just 40 seconds into
nd frame but Payne tied it up
a long wrist shot that handcuffed
Dorchester goalie Chris Molloy.
"I was in the slot and he stopped
it and then it went in," said a sur-
prised Payne. •
Rookie Scott Pfaff gave the Mo-
hawks a 2-1 lead when he pounced
on a rebound off a shot by Jeff
Warren and then Payne notched
what proved to be the winner.
He was left wide open in the slot
and stepped in and buried one into
the mesh.
"They weren't pretty goals. If I
wasn't in to it [mentally], I wouldn't
have shot."
Dorchester, a much improved
team this year, got one more as
Quinn McKnight got one past Mo-
hawk goalie Rick Pikul.
Exeter's veteran hetminder came
into Sunday's game with a 2.82
goals against average and a .903
save percentage.
"Our goalterider made some de-
cent saves and we outshot them,"
said Mohawks coach Dave Reving-
ton.
Exeter was shorthanded on the
blueline all night as they only had
five defenceman dressed and when
Dave Wilson was sidelined for a
while after a slash to the knee, there
were only four.
"We're used to playing with six
but Richard Hawkins can play back
if need be," said Revington.
Members of the Exeter and
McCurdy Public school boys
volleyball teams (above),
were locked in a heated bat-
tle Friday, as they tied for
first In the annual school
tournament held in Huron
Park. In the final match of
the day, Exeter narrowly de-
feated McCurdy 15-13 and
15-8 to win the champion-
ship. At the girls tournament
held at Exeter Public, the
home squad with no trouble
won the tournament ,as they
went undefeated.

Wilson was not only on the re-
• ceiving end of the slash, which did
not draw a penalty, but he was
cross-checked in the head, knock-
ing off his helment, again no penal-
ty
Teammate Paul Barnes however,
was given a five minute penalty
and a game misconduct in the third
period when he got his stick into
the face of Dorchester's Scott
McDonald.
Later in the period, Mohawks
centre Jeff Shipley was cut but
there was no penalty called.
Mohawks 6, Victorians 4
Three goals in 36 seconds saw
the Mohawks win their tenth game
of the season last Tuesday night.
In a re -scheduled game played
last Tuesday in Exeter, the Mo-
hawks slipped behind early as Don
Hudson gave Petrolia a 1-0 lead
just 35 seconds into the game. It
was 2-0 when Greg McEachern got
his first of two.
But beginning at 4:37, the Mo-
hawks picked their way around the
Victorians defence and Joe Scherer
scored . followed. by Pfaff and
Payne. Andre Prevost connected at
6:01 and the Mohawks were well in
front 4-2.
Payne got his second in the mid-
dle period and another one by
Scherer rounded out the Exeter
scoring. Mohawks' forward Greg
Snyder had two assists.

WE CANT AFFORb
CHEAP ORANGES
With our dollar being sup-
ported at around 88 to 89
cents American, imported
goods are cheap.
Problem is, it has made us net
importers of finished goods,
and that's bad.
We'd be a lot better off if we
stopped supporting our dol-
lar, let it find it's own value,
and put more Canadians to
work.
We can afford to pay a little
more for oranges.
Apples for apples. / )
