EXETER - Fundraising was the main topic of discussion on Thursday
might at the South Huron Recreation Centre as the Exeter Junior 'D' Hawks
4of the Ontario Junior Developm.ent Hockey League held It's second annual
encral meetirSg.
Earlier this summer, the, Hawks had a very poor turnout and there was
'even some cbncern of whether or not they would be able to have a team
due to4ack of executive commitment.
But on Thursday, a much larger group of people had the ideas flying as
fast as pucks and the new executive, headed by president Tom McCann,
began preparation for the 1993-94 season.
Former Hawks' manager Al Quinn chaired the meeting and he said,'"the
executive last year ran on five or six people doing most of the work."
Some idea's for fundraising were to have another World Series draw, a
.dance and>en the possibility of having an exhibition university hockey
game held iuxeter.
"We despe.infelOseed some fundraising," said treasurer Karen Dickins.
Shetyperted although the club has over $1,000- pe bank, there is' an
unpaid etobill of 84,800 which she said the Hawlcs'Would be making an
i m medidle`payment , towards.
Dickins was pleasedto announce both the OHA entry fee and the perfor-
martga bond have been paid.
There -are no new entries into the league which held its scheduling meet-
ing inght in Lucan. Alvinston Flyers were rejected in their bid to join
:the etakes Junior 'C' League.
Executive member Wayner DIckins who.. along with.>coach-manager
George Pratt attended therfiddtkOHA meetings,. said theriUnior Develop-
ment League executive asked DOHA to say'1dthe iters request.
"It looks like our own Junio('D' league isholditig quite a bit of clout,"
said Dickins.
Pratt said -there is a possibility -the,Hawks a:rest of the west divi-

THELEAFS.: TPIEYGOTITGOINGI
If somebody has seen a better example of guts and determination
of the TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS, I wish they would tell me
about it. I think about what they went through in 3 series that went 7
games. DETROIT was tough on them (I think Detroit has the most
talent in the League) and to tie them up in the sixth game (Gilmore
who else) and then to win it in T.O. was amazing. Then to beat out
ST. LOUIS -in seven with CURTIS JOSEPH who turned into TER-
RY SAWCHUCK, was unbelievable.
The Semi-final was tough to take because they had it in the bag
and let it get away. ru let you in on a secret. During the morning
skatein Los Angeles, I said w Ron MacLean that I sensed they (The
Leafs):aro going to lose and don't.ask me why "I said Leafs are los-
ing tonight and they're losing irCF.O. too.
I hope fou_can_say but you-woaL"
The key was the sixth game because they were running out of juice
fast. CLARKE was at his very best that night storing goals hitting,
coming off the bench for the extra man and wasting a beauty home
for the year. Now here comes the rule as they say, "(remember Leafs
leading scorer ANDERCHUCK was tossed out -of theand
tined with a game misconduct for cutting CHARLIE HUDDDT..
Now GRETZKY cuts GILMOUR for 8 stitches and believe it or
not, one official saw the cut that 16.500 saw happen (not to mention
the four million on T.V.) But not the guys only five feet from the in-
cident. Could it be that no one wanted to call GRETZKY out of the
game. so they come up with a beauty... "the puck Crit him." Get real!
So what happens? GRETZKY on the Power Play (because of
ANDERSON'S dumb Penalty, scores the winner. He shouldn't have
been in the game, let alone score the winner. but you can't blame
GRETZKY, he came through when it counted and he came through
in the seventh game, with stank off of DAVEY ELLETT'S skate
and believe me folks he meant to do that, it was no accident. But lets
not have sour grapes they (L.A.) won it and if MARTY McSOR-
LEY isn't worth at least 2 million next year. 'Nobody's worth it, but
he's big, tough makes plays Wow
about those passes to GRETZKY
when they were shorthanded, great
plus and minus, fights, hits, blocks
shots, and is a team leader. He's a
beauty and speaking of -beauty was
there ever a sweeter played than DOU-
GIF GILMOUR. He gave his heart
and soul and body (30 stitches to the
face in the playoffs, not one penalty
called). He is without a doubt the best
two way player in the world. The LEAFS didn't win it, but they can
be proud and you watch, there will be a lot of kids wearing LEAF
sweaters and sportswear instead of the SAN JOSE SHARKS be-
cause pride has been put back in the Uniform.

Soccer camp teaches
the basic skills of game
EXETER - The heat didn't seem to bother the 20 Exeter Minor Soccer
Association players who took part in a week long soccer camp in Exeter
last week.
Hosted by the local soccer association and presented by the Ontario Soc-
cer Association, the camp was designed to teach children the basics of the
very popular sport.
"We teach them basic skills and try and teach them sportsmanship," said
instructor Andrew Tomassini who does as many as four such camps a
year.
The camp, began on Monday and concluded on Friday with the sessions
running from 9:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. Keeping the attention of the players
for a long period of time, especially when it's their summer break, at times
can be tough.
"There's a range from 6 to 12 year-olds and at times its hard to keep
their interest. I try and do a lot of activities," said Tomassini.
Among the skills taught were ball control, passing and shooting.
