The victories gave the Exeter crew the series by a 4-1 margin. The first two home games gave local fans a clear indication that their favorites were in much better condition than the guests as they won those tilts going away in the final period. In the third game, Wellington threatened on only a few oc- casions as they were obviously convinced they had no chance.

Despite the wide gap on the score board, the visiting Dukes were contenders in the first two games until. they ran out of steam in the final period. In the series opener on Thur- sday, they jumped into a 3-0 first period lead and had local fans concerned until the Hawks. started to roll with seven straight markers in the final two period to post a 7-3 margin. In game two, Wellington battled the Hawks to a 2-2 tie at the end of the second, but Exeter turned on the jets in the final period with eight tallies to record a 10-2 triumph. The final game on Saturday saw the Hawks break their series trend by taking an early lead and they never relinquished it as Randy Lovie kicked out everything shet in his direction to post an 8-0 shutout. The Exeter attack was a complete team effort, as most of the players hit the score board in the three games. The scoring was evenly divided among coach Ron Bogart's three lines. Start slowly The Hawks started out slowly in the Thursday night opener and were behind 3-0 at the end of the first period. Even their staun- chest supporters felt they would have a hard time coming back against the Dukes. However, they tied the game up in the first 10 minutes of the second and then added four more over the final 30 minutes to win easily. Actually, only some stellar play by Lovie kept, the Hawks within three goals in the first period as he turned aside several shots that could have added to the Wellington lead. Meanwhile, the Hawks defence was being caught out of position and the forwards were failing to check and shoot. However, they turned that around in the middle frame after Steve Jennison finally got them on the sheet with a blistering drive from the point at the 7:47 mark. John VanGerwen then scored 39 seconds later on a power play and the Hawks knotted the count at the 10:23 mark when Don McKellerscoredon a shorthanded effort. •Goalie Randy Lovie picked up an assist on that play as he kicked the puck out to Matt Muller who bit McKeller with a pass as the latter broke in all alone. Rick Ingram fired the winner three minutes later and in the final period, Brian Taylor Muller and Gerald : Weido added in- surance tallies. Noel Skinner, who missed the first period, arrived in time to steady the Exeter defence in the final 40 minutes and he picked up four assists to lead in that department. Kim McKinnon recorded two !assists as did Muller, while singles were chalked up by Fred Mommersteeg, Taylor, Dave Kinsman, and McKeller. The Hawks drew nine of the 17 penalties. Good action Friday 'night's contest, played before 1,344 fans, featured some of the best hockey of the weekend until the Hawks blew the game wide open with their third period onslought. Once again, the Dukes broke out in front with the only goal of the first period and it was halfway through the second before John VanGerwen knotted the count with his first of three for the night. Wellington quickly rebounded for a 2-1 lead at the 11:30 mark of the second and then VanGerwen tied it again on' a solo effort before the end of the stanza. The Hawks moved quickly to the attack in the final period as VanGerwen notched his third tally after only eight seconds had elapsed and then Ken Pinder added a clincher 34 seconds later to take the steam out of the Dukes completely. Brian Taylor, Phil Knight and Pinder then scored before the six minute mark and that was enough for starting goalie Gerry Harrison. However, his replacement didn't fare much better as Taylor came back with his second and Tom Hayter and Jim Ferguson counted singles to add to the rout. Fred Mommersteeg was the top playmaker with four assists, while VanGerwen, Rick Ingram and Jim Ferguson had two each. Assisting on one each were Phil Knight, Ken Pinder and Brian - Please turn to Page 19 _Meet Our New Salesmen ART BELL JACK SALTER Larry Snider is pleased to announce the appointment of Art Bell and Jack Salter to the sales staff.
