Novsmbor 28. 1984 Sponsored by Molting Hawks Sports Spotlight By Ross Haugh Three star challenge Canada's estimated 525,000 organized minor hockey league players were thrown a challenge this week at Maple Leaf Gardens when the "Three Star Challenge" program was announced by Leafs owner, Harold Ballard, and former wrestling champion, Whipper Bil- ly Watson. The unique program, presented by the Ford Motor Company of Canada, Limited, will benefit minor hockey teams across Canada, as well as the Canadian Paraplegic Association and The Bob Rumball Centre for the Deaf. The program asks players to collect pledges from residents of their communities based on the number of goals which their team will score during their first three league games following January 1, 1985. Teams will keep half the funds raised with the other 50 percent shared by the two charities. Both Ballard and Watson are known for their charitable fund-raising efforts and felt the program could benefit minor hockey teams to raise funds for team projets and, at the same time, benefit the two charitable organizations. They, in turn, enlisted Ford of Canada's support so that all funds raised would go directly to minor hockey and the two charities. We're proud to be a part of this important pro- gram," said Kenneth W. Harrigan, president of Ford of Canada, "because we believe the youth of Canada who are involved in organized minor hockey, and their teams, will benefit directly from the "Three Star Challenge" and will assist two very worthwhile charitable organizations in the process". The Three Star Challenge has been endorsed by the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association and by its 12 branches across the country. Details of the program are contained in the current issue of Hockey Today magazine which will be distributed to minor hockey players across Canada in the upcoming three weeks. Fifteen teams will win all expense paid weekends with the Maple Leafs in Toronto in early March, 1985. Three of the lucky winning teams will be selected from each of five regions. From each designated area, the team with the most goals, the one with the most money collected and one from a draw of all other teams entered will get to see the Leafs. The team and two coaches will be flown to Toronto on Friday, March 1. They will stop at the Bob Rumball Centre for the Deaf and see how the money collected is helping those less fortunate. All meals and transpor- tation will be provided. The young players will skate at Maple Leaf Gardens, watch Leaf and Islander practices and attend the Saturday, March 2 game between the two NHL teams. They will have Sunday morning breakfast with the Leafs, attend a special hockey clinic with famous NHL oldtimers. Among former NHL players involved in this pro- gram as patrons are Bob Baun, Danny Grant, Bill Har- ris, Bill Hay, Bill Hickey, Rejean Houle, BiII Mac- Millan, Gary Monahan, Allen Stanley, Pat Stapleton, Norm Ullman and Gary Unger. Fans are fewer The Toronto Blue Jays were one of seven major league baseball teams to draw record attendance dur- ing the 1984 season, but, figures released by the Com- missioner's office reveal overall attendance was down by more than 800,000 following a record 1983 season. A total of 44,739,157 spectators turned out for all regular scheduled games scheduled during the just con- cluded season compared to 47,246,720 in 1983. In addition to the Blue Jays who passed the two million mark for the first time at 2,110,009, the Detroit Tigers, Chicago Cubs, Baltimore Orioles, Chicago White Sox, San Diego Padres and Minnesota Twins set home a ttendance records. The California Angels, Philadelphia Phillies and St. Louis Cardinals also went over two million while the Los Angeles Dodgers surpassed three million fans for the fifth time. Down to business This week is expected to be very crucial for the Toronto Blue Jays as Pat Gillick and company try to sign some of the players they selected in the recent free agent draft. The Jays are apparently pushing for relief ace Bruce Sutter, lefty Steve Trout who can start and also come in from the bullpen and slugger Andre Thornton. Great tourney All members of the Exeter Molting Hawks put in a gruelling weekend as they sponsored their second an- nual oldtimers hockey tournament. They should feel proud of their efforts as the brand of hockey was not only excellent, but, the competition was very evenly matched. Of the 24 games played, in only three games was the margin of victory more than three goals. A number of games ended in ties and the 'A' final went into overtime. Bill Darling with goals in the last three minutes of the third period and one in overtime gave the Lucan Irish Flyers the 'A' championship and a perfect record in five starts. Another important factor in making the tourney a success was the great efforts of the Molting Hawks wives in dishing up plenty of food for the participants. 11111111114114411Maimmlaall Thames Road Cabinets Kitchen, Bathroom, Curio, Desks, Wall units, etc. Contact Doug Dalrymple 235-0554 shop 235-1967 res.

Horse of year Many a boxer has been known to come off the ropes and return to victory, but, no race horse can equal the record of Willow Wiper. The six year-old pacer own- ed by Bob Hamather of Ex- eter and Hensall who has been counted a number of times has recently been nam- ed aged pacer of the year on the Ontari i Jockey Club cir- cuit at i• }hawk and Green - raceways for 1984. It's not the first time Willow Wiper has received the same award. Ile was the winner in 1982. A year ago he did not race due toa variety of health problems and Cam Fella won this harness racing honour. Willow Wiper has won $136.545 this year and has lifetime earnings of $602,495. His last three wins came at the Toronto area tracks after a layoff of almost five months. In May he set a then season record at the Meadowlands in a time of 1.53.2 before being sent to the sidelines with injuries. The long layoff ended when he was sent to Flamboro Downs primarily to have some pictures taken to record the end of his racing career and found he was sound and ready to resume training. The Hamather pacer finish- ed fifth in a free-for-all han- dicap November 17 after some equipment changes were made. The equipment will be restored for the next race and his performance should improve again. Before the latest outing, Wilow Wiper had won four times at Mohawk. Hamather compares Willow Wiper to the thoroughbred veteran John Henry saying, "He's got a hell of a heart. I've never had another horse like him and I haven't seen many others like him, either." Rally fails In Tavistock, Friday, the locals found themselves behind by a 7-3 count early in the third period and they • caught fire with three straight tallies before their rally was halted by a Tavistock goal with just under five minutes left in the game. The locals opened the scor- ing with a tally in the first minute, but the Braves re- bounded to take a 3-1 lead and were never headed after that. Steve Prout scored twice for the Hawks with single markers coming from the sticks of Steve Gould, Jeff Rowe, Don Hamilton and Scott Brintnell. Brintnell and Bill Glover assisted on three goals each to lead in that department with singles being recorded by Brian Horner, Dave Skea, Rowe, Hamilton and Trevor Johnston. Both teams scored twice on the powerplay and added one while playing a man short in the contest which was marred by two fighting incidents. Brian Horner was ousted late in the first period for his involvement and Bill Fisher was sent to the dressing room near the mid -way mark of the third. One Tavistock player accompanied each to the sidelines. The Hawks enjoyed a margin in the shots on goal as they fired 39 in the direction of Scott Young, while Pete Dearing faced a total of 29 for the Hawks.
