The local boys carried most of the play in the extra session but the best they could do was bounce a couple of shots off the goal posts. Jim Hayter, John Loader, Jack Hartleib and Terry Uniac were on the triggering end of the successful Exeter shots, DROP OPENER In Wednesday's opener on Ex- eter i c e, the Wingham lads jumped into a early 2-0 lead and were never headed in gain- ing a 5-2 decision. Jerry Newman and Allan Young were the first period Wingham marksmen. In the second Bob Armstrong bulged the twine twice while the best Exeter could do was a single tally from Jack liartleth The final twenty minutes of action produced a goal for each club. Paul Benjamin was the Ex- eter marksman while Armstrong notched his third of the night to salt away the Wingham vic- tory. Ladies' curling E. Knight 10 M. Ecker 6 D, Prout '7—J, McDowell 5 D.

In the background are Larry Stire and Fred Wells.--T-A photo Junior Hawks hit win column; but suffer two more losses Exeter midgets, on the brink of elimination a week ago, came back with a roar to tie their Cen- tennial hockey series with Wing- ham at a game apiece with one tied contest. A sudden-death game that will be played to a finish will go at the Exeter arena Friday night at 7 p.m. After dropping the first game 5-2 on home ice last Wednes- day, the locals came home from Wingham Friday with a 4-4 tie to stay alive and went right back north Sunday afternoon to gain a 4-3 decision to force the fourth contest here. The winner of Friday's game will meet Chatham or Sarnia in the next round. TAKE EARLY LEAD The local midgets managed by Gord Baynham and Red Load- er and coached by Terry Bourne took a 4-1 lead after two periods of play in Wingham Sunday and held on with a good defensive effort to win 4-3, Paul Benjamin and Ken Mc- Naughton fired Exeter goals in the first period to offset a Wing- ham counter drilled home by Terry Newman. Single goals in the second from the sticks of Bill Fairbairn and Jim Hayter without a reply from Wingham set up the good sized Exeter margin. Allan Young and Allan Nixon led the Wingham resurgence in the final frame but their efforts fell one goal short. ting the rubber. The final Blenheim goals were fired in the last period by Dan Chase and Barry Vandesbrouck. Tom Glavin, guarding the Hawk net came up with key saves throughout the contest to keep his club well out in front. Hairpins regain Legion dart lead The see-saw battle for first place in the Exeter Legion mixed dart league continues. The Hairpins, leaders for about three weeks and then dropped to second by the surging Dart Sharks have regained the top spot by a single point, 29 to 28. The Itchy Four have scratched their way up to third position with a point total of 25 and are followed closely by the Sharp- shooters and Featherflights, hav- ing compiled 22 and 21, respec- tively. Friday's scores were: Hairpins 4 — Featherflights 1 Itchy Four 3 -- Dart Sharks 2 Four B's 4 — Bluebirds 1 Sharpshooters 3—Legionnaires 2 Cleaners 3—Canners 2 Shiphunters 3 — Generals 2 This Friday night could be one of the banner hockey nights of the season at the Exeter Arena. A doubleheader will be on tap for all local puck fans that will certainly provide an excellent three or four hours of top action. In the opener at 7 p.m. the Exeter midgets will be meeting Wingham in a crucial contest. These clubs are presently tied tighter than a drum in their battle to declare an area winner in the Centennial midget playoff series. The local midgets have done it the hard way right from the first series in this tourney. In their round robin series with Forest and St. Marys they won their last two games to advance against the northern winner. In the present series, Wingham won the first game on Exeter ice last Wednesday and appeared to be in the driver's seat with the next game on their own ice. But, here is where the Exeter boys proved they never give up, by gaining a tie in Huron county's radio and TV town on Friday night and go- ing right back Sunday afternoon to win 4-3 and force a sudden-death contest. Friday's game here must provide a winner to advance against Chatham in the next round. Ar- rangements are being made with the OHA to have the junior Hawks' game moved back a half hour to nine o'clock to give the midgets plenty of time to finish their series. Under Centennial tournament rules, the Exe- ter club may use six out-of-town players in any one game provided the combined population figures do not exceed 30,000. Up to this time they have been using six youngsters from Stratford to bolster the squad. For Friday's contest, if the management saw fit, they could also add any players from St. Marys or Forest, teams that have been eliminated by the Exeter club. With seven games under their belts in this tourney leading to Canada's birthday celebration next year, the local team with their additions are begin- ning to click and are producing exciting hockey. In the same vein, the Exeter Hawks of the Shamrock junior loop showed the home crowd Fri- day night that they can produce the brand of hockey most people expected them to. After dropping their first three starts, the Hawks bounced right back with a pleasing performance for most of Friday's game to whip Blenheim 10-4. Only in the last ten minutes of play did the game take on any resemblance of the previous games when roughhouse tactics were employed. Friday's brief flare-ups can be attributed to tiring after 50 minutes of good, fast puck chasing when putting the puck in the net was the main object of both clubs. This week's twin bill should bring out the largest crowd of the season as fans can be assured of top action. Petrolia, a new entry in the junior loop, will be in town to do battle with_the Hawks in the second game of the night. SOME TOP PLAYERS Hockey fans are missing another good bet if they fail to make an occasional trip to the arena Thursday nights to watch the Rec league in action. Playing the puck is the main object of these fellows. Body checking is not allowed and this pro- duces some wide open and interesting play. In Thursday's opening twin bill 43 goals were scored, showing that the emphasis is on the offense. One might think this is bush league hockey, but that is the farthest from the truth. Each of the four teams have a roster of good talent, many of them still in their prime. The Bank Boys sport at least five members of the last Mohawk intermediate entry along with other minor graduates. Bob Jones, Lloyd Moore, Jim Russell, Frank Boyle, Bill Heywood, Larry Stire, Dale Turvey, Pete McFalls and Paul Mason are a few of the Banker mainstays. Leading the Old Timers are Terry Bourne, Hal Flaro, Bob Baynham, Ron Bogart, Ron Horne and Bill Milian to name a few. Bourne is back after a couple 'of weeks of professional competition with New Jersey of the Eastern league and Flaro is a veteran of RCAF play. Ex-Hawk junior Fred Lamb was Crediton's top scorer in the league opener and he gets help from fellows like Bob and Doug Galloway, Jim Pfaff, Paul McKeever, Jim Morrissey and some promising youngsters. Some of the Graham and Graham stalwart performers are Jim McDonald, Jack Stephen, Gord Box, Walt Tiedeman and Jim Newby. FATAL THIRD The third period proved to be disastrous for the Hawks in Point Edward, Thursday night. The home club scored six times in the last twenty minutes of play while the Exeter crew could only find the net on two occasions in absorbing the 12-6 defeat. Hawk scoring was distributed evenly to six players. Grant Walker steered in a pass from Pete Lawson for the only Exeter goal of the first period as the home club struck for four coun- ters. The Hawks turned in their best efforts of the night in the middle session, outscoring the Point Ed- ward boys 3-2. Lawson fired his club's second marker of the night early in the second finishing off a play start- ed by Bob Moir and Dennis Mor- rissey. Mike Cushman came right back to blink the light with the assist going to Morrissey. A solo effort by Ron Broderick completed the middle frame counting for the Hawks and put them within two goals of a tie. In the final twenty minutes Craig Chapman scored unassis- ted and Dennis Morrissey tipped in a pass from Bill Chipchase to complete the Hawk total. helm corner and getting it back to his team-mate. The visitors replied for their first goal in the last minute of the period as Bob Gride whipped in a screened shot from the left point. Again in the second twenty minutes of play the Hawks pretty well dominated the action keeping the visiting goalie on his toes. In the third minute after storm- ing all around the net Dennis Morrissey flipped one over the sprawling goalie into the top corner. Bob Moir and Bill Chip- chase had a couple of shots each at the net before their team- mate was successful. Five minutes later on a similar flurry around the net, Moir re- trieved the puck behind the net flipped it in the air and hit the goalie on the back to get an easy goal. Cushman nabbed his second marker of the night at the 11- minute mark after Craig Chap- man had outmaneouvred most of the Blenheim team on his way down the ice. Moir finished the Hawk scoring in the second com- pleting a play from Morrissey and Ron Broderick. Dave Rodgers fired the second Blenheim tally late in the period on a solo effort. Burton, Cushman and Chapman with single efforts in the third period finished up the Hawk scor- ing. The last goal was probably the best one of the night as Cush- man and Chapman went the length of the ice on a criss-cross pas- sing pattern with the latter net- The Exeter junior Hawks gained their first win of the season on home ice Friday swamping Blenheim 10-4. They were on the short end of fairly large scores in their two road trips of the week, losing to Point Edward 12-6, Thursday and Port Huron 8-4 in the Mich- igan City, Tuesday. SNAP STREAK The Hawks proved to the 288 faithful fans on hand Friday night that they can stick strictly to hockey and it paid off with their first win of the season. Scoring at least three times in every period the local juniors downed a good Blenheim club by a decisive 10-4 count. Mike Cushman, hitting high gear for the first time this year, led the club with a three-goal performance. Bob Moir and Scott Burton were close behind with two-goal effort s. The latter, playing on defence for the first time, turned in a solid effort going both ways. The Hawks wasted little time getting going, scoring after three minutes of play as Burton hit the mark on a rush started by Grant Walker and Rick McDonald. The same combination was re- sponsible for the second scoring play five minutes later, this time McDonald finished the effort. Goal number three for t h e Hawks came from the stick of Cushman, as the big centre flip- ped in a rebound on Burton's long drive from the blue line. Jack Glover started the play by digging the puck out of the Blen- COMBINES FOLD One prominent area hockey club that is an the missing list this year is the Lucan-Ilderton Com- bines. Lack of competition is the main reason the Combines are not in action this season. Apparently Seaforth is the only town that was willing to ice a team in the immediate area and rather than face long road trips, the Combines de- cided to call it quits, for one year at least. This won't stop some of the enthusiastic for- mer Combines from getting ice exercise in the South Middlesex league. This popular loop with six en- tries perform Mondays at the Gardens in London and Thursdays at the Lucan arena, Don Urbshott and Keith Scarborough are in the Ilderton line-up while fellows like Jack Park, Steve Storey and Harry Wraith will be helping the Lucan club. The first meeting of the two clubs re- sulted in a 2-0 win for Lucan. Other teams in the S-M loop are Ailsa Craig, Edgewood, London Concrete and Lee and Stewart.
