Worthy of your support all of the finalists will be as- sured of good prizes, A bridge table and four chairs will be awarded to each player of the district winners and the runners- up will each receive a beautiful set of luggage. The Seaforth rink making the final play-offs is made up of skip John Patterson, Dave Cornish, Bill Ball and Gord I3euttenmiller. Stew Brown heads the Guelph foursome and Jim Broomfield skips the Galt rink. Double opening ceremonies were held Sunday morning with Ontario Treasurer, the Hon. C.S. MacNaughton throwing the first rock at Exeter and S/L Jack Malone, CFB Centralia detach- ment commander, doing the honors on his home ice. Others participating as offi- cial sweepers were Exeter's Reeve Derry Boyle, Legion pres- ident Stan Frayne, sports officer Howard Holtzman and OPP Cor- poral C.J. Mitchell. Each rink competing in the bonspiel was taxied back and forth between the two curling clubs and the Legion hall by local members of branch 167. Lee Learn of Exeter is co- convenor of the event. Every 37 seconds, a patient in a Canadian hospital receives a free blood transfusion. An Exeter rink, skipped by Lee Webber survived plenty of tough competition in the LegicrI Zone "C" clurling play-offs over the weekend and will compete with three other foursomes in Sun- day's final games. Twenty- four rinks started, in the district bonspiel held at the Exeter and CFB C ent ralia curling clubs, and only the four squads coming back were able to win three straight games. Rinks from Galt, Guelph and Seaforth will be doing battle with the local quartet in the final games that will start Sunday morning at 9.30 at the Centra- Ha curling club, The Webber rink from Exeter took all of their games by the narrowest o f margins. They downed a Hensall rink skipped by Maurice Tudor 5-4 in the first round, winning on the last stone thrown, and stayed in conten- tion for the grand championship with identical 7-6 wins in the next two games. Ray Wuerth, Si Simmons and Clarence "King" McDonald com- prise the balance of the Webber rink that will be shooting for first place Sunday and a berth in the provincial finals to be held in Sutton, February 16,17 and 18.

The clubs traded single goals in a low scoring second period, Bob Jones tying the count temporari- ly for the Bankers and Jack Conlin putting Crediton back in the lead. The only goal of the final stanza was fired by Bill Heywood of the Bank Boys to give each club a single point for their night's work. The cellar dwelling Graham and Graham hockey team pulled the biggest upset of the Exeter Rec league season to date with a convincing 4-1 win over the Old Timers in the second half of Thursday's usual twin bill. In the opening contest, the Bank Boys and Crediton Tigers played to a 5-5 draw in well played fashion. The results of Thursday's games tightens the league race considerably, 235-0660 Snell Bros. Limited Chevrolet — Oldsmobile EXETER The Crediton six remain on top of the heap with 13 points, while the Bankers and Old Timers are deadlocked in the runner-up position with equal season point totals of 10. There was little change in the league scoring department as Jim McDonald of Graham and Graham was the only member of the league's top five to blink the red light. McDonald's single tally enabled him to pull on even terms with Larry Stire for second spot. Each has scored 16 times, while Fred Lamb is on top with 22 scores to date.

Jack Stephen insured the win with another goal late in the game. The 5-5 draw between the Bank Boys and Crediton was a nip and tuck affair all the way with first one team and then the other tak- ing a temporary lead. Most of the goals were scored in the first twenty minutes of play with the Crediton boys leading 4-3 as the teams headed for the first rest. T( MAN AND \A( )RI I) Saturday heralds the opening of Minor Hockey Week from coast to coast in Canada. A similar program is being undertaken at the same time by the United States Amateur Hockey Association to benefit youngsters south of the border. It will be known as "Youth Hockey Week". Due to previous plans that tie in with the Exeter Centennial plans, the local hockey association will be holding their big hockey day almost a month later than the rest of the country. Actually two days are necessary to completely feature all of the competitors in the local minor puck program. The all star clubs, from the novice class up through to the Junior Hawks, will be displaying their wares on February 18 with the program getting un- derway at 1 p.m. Some time early in March, the youngsters performing each Saturday in the different house leagues will have a chance to perform in a full eve- ning of hockey. Starting Saturday, all across Canada, minor hockey enthusiasts will be drawing attention to what minor hockey can do, and does for boys. Here in this area, minor hockey is an impor- tant part of winter life for hundreds of boys and the arenas of the district are kept busy with young play- ers being guided and taught by men and youths who give their time because they have a love for hockey and for working with boys. Their work is no soft touch. There is a lot to do, and a lot to be done, and rarely, if ever, are there enough volunteers to fill all the management, coaching, time-keeping and refereeing positions there are to be filled if all boys who want to play are ac- commodated. Minor hockey costs money, too. There is ice time to be paid for, sweaters and equipment to be supplied, as well as all the little expenses that add up to such a large total. The observance of the big hockey week across the country is sponsored and organized by the Canada Amateur Hockey Association. While men- tioning the CAHA let us say a word about their work on behalf of hockey in Canada. It seems they are often placed in the position of making unpopular decisions but we must admit those who so readily criticize do not always have all the information. To make minor hockey function all across this great nation it takes an alert national governing body, an active provincial organization and energetic local groups. We are fortunate to have all of the above- mentioned in Canada, but above all, it takes boys. They are the life blood of the game, as they are of the nation. HEALTHY, ROUSING ACTIVITY It is gratifying to know that more than 200,000 Canadian boys are being given an opportu- nity to play properly supervised, well organized hockey. Truly, hockey is Canada's national sport and more boys take part in this healthful, rousing ac- tivity than in any other game. It is estimated that minor hockey teams across the wide Dominion pour more than $2,000,000 an- nually into the economy of our country. This vast amount of funds goes into sporting goods stores, gasoline stations, restaurants, bus companies, stick manufacturers, arenas and other suppliers of the commodities necessary to keep Young Canada on ice. In approaching Minor Hockey Week, we would like to salute the many coaches and managers of young hockey clubs, not only in Exeter but in every community in Canada and the United States. Their devotion and leadership is the big reason far the up- swing in minor hockey participation in this country. These loyal men give much of their own time and resources in ensuring proper guidance and in- struction to the young boys entrusted to their care. This leadership comes from former players and those active in sports, but especially so from fathers of young puck chasers, and sometimes moth- ers, too. So, we suggest that each one of us take time to visit the arena, not only during minor hockey week, but any time the boys are playing. By doing so we will be paying tribute to the men and ladies who make it all possible. While we're at it, let's hope that minor hockey continues to flourish and exert its influence for good on more and more local youngsters. Maybe, one of these years, one or more grad- uates of our minor hockey setup may be given the opportunity to represent, not only this community, but Canada, by winning a spot on the Canadian Na- tional team, According to statistics released by the CAHA recently, more and more Canadian boys are taking advantage of the increasing number of minor hockey programs throughout the country. This year, 205,391 boys are playing on 12,578 teams. Checking back to records of 1962-63, only four years ago, we find slightly more than 10,000 teams were registered with the CAHA, providing playing opportunities for 167,000 kids. LOCAL PROGRAM WELL RUN Here in Exeter, about 170 boys are presently partaking of the excellent puck program being of- fered by the local minor hockey association. The present setup under president Derry Boyle and secretary Bill Gilfillan of EMHA and arena manager Alvin Willert, is being operated on a much smaller budget than other towns in the dis- trict. Giving freely of their time in coaching and managing the all-star clubs are a large group of dedi- cated men. Among them are Bev Skinner, Harvey Pfaff, Bill Gilfillan, Lorne Kleinstiver, Lorne Haugh, Alvin Willert, Terry Bourne, Gory Baynham, Earl Wagner and Lloyd Cushman. This may be hard to believe, but statistics prove that throughout Canada only 25% of parents turn out regularly to watch their boys play minor hockey. CAHA officials have adopted the slogan: "DON'T SEND — TAKE YOUR BOY TO THE ARENA," Are you a SENDER or a TAKER? The second week of play has been completed in the second draw of the Exeter ladies curling club and two rinks remain un- defeated in each division. Rinks skipped by Melba Ecker and Helen Frayne have chalked up two straight wins in Tuesday action while Edith Boyle and Edna Busche have led their foursomes to successive victories in Wed- nesday play. Of the rinks competing in Thursday play, those headed by Helen Burton and Audrey Mc- Donald have yet to taste defeat. Last week's scores are as follows: H. Frayne 11 - J. McDowell 6 M. Ecker 9 - W. Wuerth 4 D. Elder 9 - T. Payne 3 H. Webber 9 - E. Knight 2 M. Marshall 6 - M. Murley E. Boyle 8 - P. Simmons E. Busche 12 - M. McCarter D. Marks 8 - A. Bray 6 H. Burton 6 - H. Mickle 4 B.
