A. PROBLEM FOR REP
Exeter Mohawks, as most of you know by no v1
are scheduled for a best -of -seven series wit(. BRAD-
FORD.
Entering the O.H.A. playdowns and winning
an ;all -Ontario title bas long been the ((ream of MO-
TAWKS' playing coach "Red" LOADER. Now. after
nearly six month., of be-
ing bumped around, the
game little reed -head will
realize at least the first
of his ambitions. The
second one, however,
won't be easy
One of the problems
which tnay spoil the
coach's plan is his pre-
sent injury list and what
may turn out to be the
lack of bench strength.
Already with BOB
COATES sidelined with
a broken ankle, BILL
WAGHORN out with a
Bill Pincombero broken* wrist and GIB
SABOURIN on the side-
lines indefinitely with a torn knee cartilage, the
MOHAWKS ren into still another crisis in the final.
game against PHILIPSBURG when leftwinger BILLY
PINCOMBE emerged with a broken wrist that will
probably sideline one of the tribe's best for the
balance of the season.
With four main players on the sidelines. there
is no need to elaborate on the work that is cut out
for "Red" himself and the rest of the club.
MOHAWK manager BILL MUSSER failed in
his,bid to BILL HANLEY of the O.H.A. to get one or
two player concessions for the injured players. That
means the locals will have to go with what they've
got. The big question riding is can they dc' it" To
pull out the right answer would be like coining up
with the $64,000 jackpot.
Admissicn price is being raised to 75e for the
0.H.A. playdowns because of the cut taken by the
ONTARIO HOCKEY ASSOCIATION and the enorm-
ous travelling expenses incurred. We trust that the
quarter increase will not keep anyone at home since
the players will be going all out with what they have
to try to bring Exeter its first Ontario crown.

According to JIMMY SKINNER, who once
piloted the DETROIT RED WINGS and ~,s•ho is now
oft the road as a scout for the organization, he would
nof. be the least bit surprised to see tie NEW YORK
RANGERS grab all the marbles in the N.H.L. JIMMY
certainly isn't selling LES CANADIENS short or even
his own RED WINGS but to him the way those pesky
RANGERS have been gnawing away at the league
leaders all season the victory wouldn't surprise him
in the least,
"The Canadiens have an ideal hockey club and
the way they've been playing all season, no one
should touch them. But when playoff time rolls
around, the pressure is back on everyone, even
BLAKE'S club. With alltheir injuries, the pressure
could upset them just t' bttgh: fpr a Learn. like the
WINGS, BRUINS or RANGERS to knock therm off,"
voiced Skinner in a quick interview,
Jim couldn't explain the way DETROIT played
without the services of HOWE for a couple of weeks.
Just when everything looked on the hopeless side
for the motor city crew, the WINGS seemed to play
better hockey than ever until GORDIE'S return. "It's
just one of those things," blurted out Jim. "Why does
a team play so well when a man short and look so
pitiful at times when at full strength'"

GAUDETTE ON THE MOVE AGAIN
We received a letter from LEN GAUDETTE
wile used to be quite the popular guy around this
heck of the woods. He sends word along that he has
said goodbye to AYLIVIER to become the manager of
the newly -built TRENTON COMMUNITY GARDENS.
Trenton has a population of some 16,040 and is situ-
ated on the shores of Lake Ontario.
GAUDETTE, in his new role, will have to or-
ganize major hockey there as well as managerial
duties and has already started to work on an INTER-
MEDIATE "A" entry for this coming fall. LEN leaves
Aylmer where he was arena manager and recreation
director. Prior to this he lived in Lucan. We'd like
to wish him the best of luck in his new post. Maybe
the MOHAWKS will be back in INTERMEDIATE "A"
ranks next fall and could line up a game with him.

are shown battling in the Detroit" end of the rink for a loose puck en the fifth game
of the Shamrock Pee Wee Tournament held in Lucan last Saturday as referee
Ross McRoberts looks on, Detroit won the game by a score of 5-0 on the strength of
four unanswered second period markers.
Shamrock Tournament
VP Cup To
Bash '' in iId
The town of Lucan held its
second annual Shamrock Pee
Wee Hockey Tournament last
Saturday with no less than 12
teams from Western Ontario and
one from the city of. Detroit par-
ticipating in the day -long affair.
District teams from Hensel,
RCAF Centralia, Exeter and
Lucan did battle with distant
municipalities ,for a crack at
winning one of the three trophies
put up for competition by sports-
men in the Lucan area.
. The Exeter entry, under the
supervision of Larry Heideznan
and Alvin Willert, edged out a
close 2.1 decision from t:1e high
flying Lambeth Legionnaires
while Lucan Leprechauns Scored
a thrilling 3-2 victory over Don
Buddo's Ikterton Flyers.
Hensall Pee Wees, winners of
last year's tournament, were
pitted against the Detroit team
and dropped a 5-0 verdict. How-
ever, the defeat was no disgrace
as the Michigan age regulation
for pee tees is 14 while the Can-
adian rule sets the limit at 12.
The game band of Hensall boys
gave all they had against 1.110,
Detroiters but the visitors used
their height and weight to chalk
up the win,
RCAF Centralia.'s entry took a
5.0 setback at the hands of a
fast -stepping St. Mike's hockey
club from London. St. Mikes
just had a little too much zip
in the second period when they
fired home four goals to rap up
the game.
Exeter Clips Lambeth
Exeter's pee wee club gained
plenty of prestige in the tourney
when they upset the Lambeth
Legionnaires 2-1. The Legion-
naires, who were voted 'tine most
outstanding team on the day's
play by a panel of judges for
their sportsmanship, -team play
and man-to-man ability, wer.c set
bark decisively in the 2-1 loss.
Freddy Wells, leftwinger o11
the Exeter club, was one of the
main reasons that Exeter pulled
out the victory. He was voted
the most outstanding player in
the tournament and was preseint-
cd with the J. 1I. Ready Trophy.
Wells set up the first Exeter
goal that was scored by Soh
MacDonald and then )made an
end-to-end solo rush for the win -

of the third period.
