Coach BILL WOODWARD'S crew are dangling In an awkward position at the moment but have three home games left and two away. Of these five • games four must be in the win column if they want their playoff chances to stay alive. ST. THOMAS are riding a "red hot" winning streak and. the tribe will have to do the same to catch them. While on the subject of hockey, let's swing into the executive part of the business. It was quite a 'surprise to this corner to„ hear that BILL HANLEY, business manager of the 0,11.A., had handed in his resignation. Of course it wasn't accepted outright by the 0.11.A. executive members but our guess is that he will be lured back to his post by,his friends Tfor another year at least. BRUCE B1GGART tells us that this Saturday night when SARNIA CVs are here, another "big draw" night will be held in order to help raise finances to meet expenditures for the team. BRUCE says that two bright red lamps, just right far a recreation, room, along with a tri -light floor_lamp, will be,, drawn for. Also- slated on the agenda is a draw for five quarts of oil that will look after soMeone's car for a few weeks. HOLD IT NOW! We're still not through. V,ALENTINE'S DAY, FEBRUARY 14, is the date set aside for the booster night which will be held at Armstrong's Restaurant with the starting time slated for 939 p.m. ATTENTION GOLF CLU13 MEMBERS—Accord- ing to 'the Ca.nadian Press, our interpretation of the word "bogey", which Means one over par in the minds of most Canadian golfers, is INCORRECT. In,the UNITED KINGDOM, where the word• or- iginated, it is a set figure like par and isusually six or seven strokes over par for the 18 hole course. 1'he word is misused. in the NORTH AMERICAN *CONTINENT by clu*swingers to Ipeart one over par. • So fellas, kindly bring back all of the loot won in all previous tournaments on "so called" bogeys! While we're on the subject of golf, the Canadian pros are still continuing to tour the United States golf links in hopes of winning some big money. In the $15,000 TUCSON OPEN which . was eventually :won by DOW FINSTERWALK in a playoff, two Canadians came in for a little bit of prize money. AL BALDING, Toronto, made the largest Canuck take by shooting rounds Or69-66-71-67 for a 273 total that was good for $725. GERRY KESSELRING. of Kitchener was the other Canadian entryand, Gerry, who has been hav- ing tough luck all winter over there, shot rounds of 70-71-71-67-279 to earn $25.

The Exeter Xiamen Midgets, who lost a elose 6-5 decision to Seaforth last week tied with Mitchell for second place in the round robin standiat_ts. A playoff was necessary and with the help of a Bantam line that consisted of • Bob Jones - Frank" Boyle -Jack Stephen, won the sudden death tilt 6-4 in Mit- chell to gain the rIght to ad- vance against the Seaforth club for the Group Chamnionship. Playoff date S for this series have •not been arranged but it is expected that the teams will see action at the latter part of the week. A severe, blow .was suffered by Exeter Midgets as one of their regular stalwarts, Jim Russell, was injured in a high school basketball game and will be out for two weeks. Coed( John Ford who has a small lineup will now have a smaller one with Russell's absence. The Exeter Legion Bantams are waiting for the winners of the Ciinton-Milverton series as they put out the Centralia Fly- ers in two straight games in their first taste of WOAA offs. Zurich-Lucan Bantams Zurich Bantams hold the'upper Local Pucksters Lose -Hockey Week Games Both the Exeter pee wee and bantam teams suffered setbacks on Friday night when the young- sters celebrated th Ontario Minor' Hockey Association's first "Mi- nor Hockey Week" in Ontario. Mayor Ted Pooley officially opened the evening proceedings by dropping the puck on the first face-off between the visiting Ren- . sall.pce wees and the local pee wee • squad •coached by rebrea- ' Lionel director Larry Heideman. The second game, which saw tile visiting Kitchener bantams, under the name of Red Wings, work out a 6-3 victory, was start- ed with Mrs. Bill McKenzie drop- ping the puck for the opening face-off. The Hensall pee wees, bolstered by three Zurich players, managed to eke out a close 2-1 decision in tightly -fought contest. Earl Wagner, of Zurich, proved to be the hero of the night as he scored the tying goal at 3:33 of the first .period with Russell Klopp assisting on •the play and then banged in a rebound at 908. of the same period for what proved to be the winning marker. Centre Ricky Hoyle rapped in Freddy Wells' rebound to give his team a temporary 1-0 lead. at 1:58. Donald Cann also drew an assist on the play. The game showed plenty of punch by both teams and only the goalkeepers, John Snell in the Exeter nets and. Dennis Mock in the Hensall, cage, kept the scores down. Rushing defencenian Don Cann gave the visitors a couple of anxioutmoments when he made a rink -length clash and sent a, high rising shot off the goalpost that Goalie Mock didn't see. In all, four penalties were called in the contest with each team getting nicked for two. Cornish,,Mitchell & Co. CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS H. J. Cornish L. F. Cornish D. Mitchell I K. W. Slade W.
