Sports Editor BARRY GLOVER IS IN THE SPOTLIGHT Nineteen -year-old Barry Wayne Glover, son or Mr. and Mrs. Jim Glover, Hill Street, Exeter, is steal- ing the spotlight in Eastern Canada these days. Barry, one of six children in the Glover family, is making his hit in the Senior Nova Scotia Football League with Stadacona. Sailors. St, Francis Xavier University, Dalhousie" Tigers, Stadacona .and Shear- water Flyers form the competent four -team grouping and presently rest in that order in the standings. One might say that the Canadian Navy gave the Exeter youth his big break, at least as far as football is concerned. Glover, who played for South0 Huron District High School in Exeter, joined the Navy two years ago and 'was posted to the West Coast where he toiled for Naden Rams (Vancouver Island), a junior club which won the league champion- ship. The second year in ir • `. service saw him go east- ward across this fair do- ' main of ours and wind . up in Halifax where he is really making a name for himself, f o o t ball wise. The youngster is becoming better all the time as experience in the senior loop is pay- ing off. Although in his first year, Barry present- ly is leading the point parade. Playing out of „ his fullback position, he lhas a chance to become J rookie of the year in his .,.! first full season in the NSFL. Sports writers down that way are gen- erous with their type for the Exeter product as . his yardage runs have stirred up the league. So much in fact, that the op- posing clubs are laying back just waiting for him to carry the ball. And so they should. In one game against Dalhousie, Barry piled up 243 yards on 22 rushing attempts. • However, this boy has proved he can take care of himself. Many of you will remember Barry when he lived here. He wasn't what you would call a big lad at 148 pounds but was one that always gave everything he had in whatever sports. he par- ticipated in. At the moment, Barry has matured into manhood and boasts a frame of a solid 178 pounds. October 2 was a big day in his life as he went through the wedding vows with a Nova Scotia girl. Last weekend the pair were in town visiting the Glover family and friends. SPARKLING RUNS RAISE EYEBROWS To show we're not kidding about Glover's abilities in the football world, the Halifax Chronicle - Herald (Nova Scotia paper) had Barry's name glaring in the headlines reading "Glover Sparkles In Stad Triumph". Sparkle he did. Sportswriter Ed Thorne writes: "Hurryin' Barry Glover, the 178 -pound speed- ster from Exeter, was a one-man. demolition crew for the zestful, spirited and win -hungry Stadacona Sailors. Glover, power personified halfback who has been the standout of Stad's backfield since he made his first appearance this season, worked his pump- ing pistons for four touchdowns in leading the Sea- farers to a 37-26 decision over Shearwater Flyers. Glover was a man with a mission and ran uncoralled both through the .line and around the °ends. Two of his till trips, in the last half, were real emotion - heaters. In the third quarter he found an untenanted • alley on the right side of Flyers' line and was off and running on a 98 -yard T.D. In the fourth frame, h.: took a pitchout from quarterback Ed MacLeod, and with a key block zipped 59 yards around right end. His lost paydirt punch was an 11 -yard smack off right tackle just as the final gun cracked." We could keep going on with more quotations like this but space doesn't permit. Checking over the records of the Stadacona club, they have a 1-3 win - loss record but actually they are a much better ball team than the standings indicate. They lost one game to the league leaders by a single point and a second by seven. So you can see they are not too far out of the running. With some breaks they might even win the N.S.F.L. title. II was certainly good to see Barry back in town. The last time we really remember him was when he worked at shortstop for Exeter's OBA Midget "C" baseball champions some four years ago. Before we close, we'd like to wish him the best of luck in the navy, in his football career and for many' years of happily married life. CUFF CLEANERS—If all goes well, machinery wise, Exeter Mohawks should have their first hockey prac- tice in the local arena Friday night: Arena Manager Alvin Willert turned on the freezing apparatus Mon. day. Tribe Coach "Red" Loader can hardly wait to put his serfs through his grueling conditioning pro- gramme . . . The Mohawks had an outing last week- end in the Lucan arena for an hour. Several new faces were on hand and the Majority of the new- comers looked as though they could bolster the tribe considerably . Baseball throughout the countyy has beei . practically wiped right off the map. The only thing that still rests untied is the IluronTerth Intermediate championship. Mitchell and Zurich, two HT clubs that represented the league in OBA play, must have just dropped the matter on their own to get into the OBA round. As we said before, it's bad business for the league and supporting fans. We can't see why the balance of the. finals couldn't have been worked in when both clubs were partici. pating in ORA ball Collections for the Mohawk hockey club are moving rapidly, The response by fans throughout Exeter and district has been good. With the possibilities of rorest, Zurich.Clinton, Ilderton, Mitchell, Philipsburg and txeter forming a grouping, the hockey this winter should really be keen. The SiX clubs should be pretty evenly balanced. BARRY GLOVER Boosts Canadian talent Al's Sam Etcheverry -.delivers at CE IVIontreal's pride and joy, Sam Etcheverry, tossed Many "Poptt- laritY" touchdown passes into the laps of eager listeners at RCAF CAntralia'S annual sum- mer sports banquet Monday night, The good-looking Alouette star was well liked right from the first time he stepped up to the, mike to make his speech. Sant, possibly better known by the nickname of "The gain- ed tremendous respect from his audience as he answered ques- tions fired at him fiom all angles about players throughout the country and many on his own team. Not once did he run any player down. The closest he came to it was when Hal Patter- son and Jackie Parker were compared. Sam told his audienee that Parker was an exceptional! ly fine ball player but he thought Patterson held a slight edge on him. The 29 -year -aid quarterback who hails from Carlsbad, N.M., tateralled many answers back to his curious questioners in a- musing style. The replies kept the whole audience in an almost continuous •hilarious mood. One • of these instances arose When it was mentioned that the Als lost three Grey Cup games in a row to some club out West In answer to the question as to what team it was, Sam casually out with, "Can't seem to remem- scratched his head and blurted • <Af; ber the name of that team now!"

Throughout the day, the football star met hundreds of kids states. and air force personnel while touring the station. Above, Sam, on the left, chats with Doug "Toby" Brintnell and greets Jim "Red" Loader with a friendly handshake. Etcheverry, not exactly new to the speech making game, kept his audience keen throughout his speech and a lengthy question and answer period. Mitchell nips SH 7-6 to leave locals winless After five complete games in the Senior Perthex Conference Football League, South Huron District High • School Panthers are still on the winless side. Friday afternoon, Mitchel]. Blue Devils continued their spell over the 'local squad by ringing up a 7-6 decision right in the South Huron stamping grounds. Warren Sholdice was the hero of this contest as he scored the winner's\only major of the game and booted a single to account for all seven points. Just didn't have it South Huron P'anthers, just didn't have that extra punch when they needed it. The Blue Devil squad was ' "up" for the gatne and showed the needed class when necessary. At one stage of the game in the third quarter, Panthers carried he ball right down to the Mitchell six-yard line on a couple of Gals press loop leaders Happy Gals are on the move in the Exeter Ladies Bowling League. Pin Pappettes, who held a comfortable five point margin last week, had their lead cut to three as the Gals bounced the Lollipops for seven points while the Pin Poppettes had to settle for five from Jolly Six. Dot Munroe was the big gun in the landslide for the Happy Gals with her 668 triple, Pin Pop- pettes with 36, Happy Gals 33 and Hot Dogs 28 are the top three teams in the leagee, Alley Cats were the only other club to sweep a seven point vic- tory and that came at the ex- pense of the Pills. G. Wurm was high for the winners with 575, Better than 600 triples went to M. Edward (Hi -Lights) 625; E. Morley (Mighty Mice), 713; 8. Sangster (Nite..Ilawks) 608; A. Cronyn (Whatnots) 649; D. Bon - thrall (Greenhorns) 648; S. Wright (Handicappers) 758 and D. Munroe (Happy Gals) 668, Weekly award winners were S. Wright of the Handicappers for her high 758 triple and M.

This was one- of the major places where the local squad failed to show a leader. Three consecu- tive attempts to crack the Mitch- idll line on running plays failed. Mitchell took over on their five yard line. Quarterback Bill McNaught threw a variety of plays at the locals throughout the game that seemed to upset the Panthers considerably, Time and time again they were caught off guard. Mitchell scores first Warren Sholdice took advan- tage of a strong crosswind to score the first point of the ball - game. Early in the opening quarter, Sholdice lofted a high kick that sailed deep into South Huron's end zone for a point. 'Minutes later, McNaught and Sholdice executed a perfect play at the South Huron 20 yard Line as Sholdice took McNaught's pass over his shoulder and scampered to pay dirt. South Huron got back in the football game in the second quer. ter when Dave Green grabbed one of McNaught's bullet -like passes at the Mitchell 30 and went all the way for the major. The convert was missed. The local club threatened again in the late stages of the fourth quarter but being against the wind hampered their chances of pulling the game out of the fire, areial-wise at least, Jim McDonald and Dave Green did the majority of the pigskin lugging for the local club while Ken Parkinson, Jim East and Bill Harmer shone for Mitchell in the ground gaining depart- ment. ,MITCHELL 7, SOUTH HURQN 6 MITCHELL BLUE DEVIL S— Cent Whetam; guards, Benson.

The local club has combined with 'RCAF Station Centralia and plays at least one night a week in RCAF Centralia's rec- reation hall. Presently the com- bined clubs are performing every Monday from 8-11 with the strong possibilities that Friday nights will also be available. The Badminton Club can han- dle 40 members and would like to have more participants. Mem- bership fee is $5.00 and any- one interested in joining is asked to get in touch with Mrs. Pat Rees at 626-J-2. The club executive is lining up tournaments for the present 20 or so active participants. Also on the agenda, Mrs. Beech of RCAF Station Centralia will be giving instruction lessons to any juniors who would like to take up thegame. • 0, "The Rifle" thought that the Canadian game was much bet- ter for the standpoint of the spectators. Main difference be- tween strong Canadian clubs such as Winnipeg and Hamilton as against the rest is that they have the reserve in Canadian talent. "You must have good substi- tutes to give the American play- ers a rest," said Sam. "Win- nipeg and Hamilton have good Canadian substitutes and that is why they're showing the way, Canadian players are getting better as time goes on. The dif- ference between American and Canadian football players is .that when the American boy is at the age of nine or ten, he is playing in an organized type of league. Something like your hockey players over here, they are playing when they're attending grade school and junior high. By the time a football player reaches university, he usually has the ability and knows how to apply himself because of the concentrated coaching in lower leagues. -Many Canadians have the ability but no one has shown them how to use it. Although I must admit it's getting much better now than it was in 1952. A player must have guts to tackle but he must be shown. The same thing applies to block- ing. Canadians are getting bet - Additional Sports on Page 7 ter all the time though!" 111111 ...... 1111111)111111111111111111111111 ........... isi111111111111111111111t1111111111111111111 iiiiiiii 111111111111111111111111111110, For "The Pick Of WHITE Them All" ROSE CALL Seldon Fuels Distributors Of White Rose Products • STOVE OIL • FURNACE OIL also • DIESEL OIL • GASOLINE The Best Black Anthracite See What You Buyl Pocahontas and Various Stoker Coals Are Always Available Seldon Fuels PHONE 90-W OR 2 1F IT'S CAN YOU NEED, THEN DON'T DELAY- ' CALL T.C.C.

One of the biggest laughs a the night was produced When the Montreal star was asked why such as. splendid display of tempers were always shown on the gridiron. In hockey as soon as a man is boarded the first thing they do is start swinging. Before the questioner could get the complete statement out of his mouth, Etcheveryy retaliated with the words, "$50 fine!" It certainly summed up why tem- pers didn't flare as often as they do in hockey. Group Captain Kenyon ex- pressed appreciation to Sam Etcheverry for appearing at the banquet, F/O Moe Gobeil intro- duced the"guest speaker. To climax the evening, awards were presented to the winners of the summer sports activities.
