Benham and Warren who both had outstanding seasons with the Senior 'A' Mohawks, were scheduled to be in Toron- to for tonight's April Fool's Day game with the New York is - !enders. --- "We areliery excited *outlaying the opportunity to'play for the Leafs," Baynhani told the Times -Advocate before leaving his wife and daughters for the trip to Toronto. Baynham, who has been substituting for absent Mohawk captain Jeff Shipley, said the promotion will help his hockey career but could hamper the Mohawks if the Leafs decide to keep him full-time. "I don't want to be ungrateful to the Leafs, but the M ohawks need both Moose [Warren] and I for the next series:" Exeter recently won the Southern Counties Senior 'A' Hock- ey League championship and are heading into the all -Ontario semi-finals. Warren said the only thing that would make this trip a per- fect one, was if Minnesota North Stars blueliner H ava-Shaw was to be traded to Toronto. . - illirl;'ls a chance for Bart [Bayntui t11 tdfito sit tr—"romnto a couple of good defencemen," said Wanen who was thinking about taking his oversized dog Murphy to Toronto to play right wing. Meanwhile, Exeter goalie Rick Pikul is still awaiting the call from the St. Thomas Wildcats of the Colonial Hockey League to sign a contract for next season. Mohawks' coach Dave Revington is not pleased with his veterans seeking other teams but knows he can't hold them back. "There is nothing I can do about it," said Revington. "They have proven they can move up the hockey ladder so I really don't want to stand in their way." In other spotting news this week, South Huron District High School athletic director Ron Bogart has been informed by the Huron County Board of Education that they made a mistake *when calculating his years of service. Bogart was told on Friday he still has two more years left to leach. "I can't believe they could make such a mistake," said Bo- gart. "I've given this school the best years of my life and now it's time for retirement." Bogart and his sons, Dave and Scott have aspirations to take over the coaching and managing duties of the newly formed North Middlesex North Stars of the OHA Development League. "We'll give it a shot, it might be fun," said Bogart. S+^ The Exeter Royals of the South Perth Men's Fastball League have decided to release pitcher Derwen Hodgins. The ate .thrower has had surgery during the off season which he ` lift hotlell the Royals meiageutent'about. "If we had known of his.coa ditien-we would have got some pitching help," said Royals' General Manger Fred Cook. There is unrest in the Royals camp as shortstop Dan Hey- wood and second baseman Jim Allison say they won't play on the same diamond with outfielder Mike Desjardine because of his total dedication to the Montreal Canadiens. "I don't care what these guys think," said Desjardine, trying to defend his beloved Habs. "I am, and always have been, a Montreal fan, and I am not going to change just because these guys don't want to play ball with me." Finally this week, yours truly is happy to announce that de- spite several offers from TSN and Sports Illustrated to join their ranks, I have declined. All the sports teams in the community have decided to link up financially to match the salary offered by the two groups and because of their generosity I will be staying with the Times -Advocate.
