In their latest action in Stratford Wednesday, the Panthers trounc- ed Stratford Northwestern 26-6 to keep their unbeaten streak intact, Winghani and G oder ich are deadlocked in second spot with equal records of three wins and a single loss. Ron Bogart's seniors were in Listowel yesterday, and will wind up the regular schedule against Stratford Central in the Classic City, October 26, In their latest outing the Panth- ers lost their shut-out when the Stratford club scored on a 40- yard completed pass on the last play of the game. Jim Hayter and Bud Desjardine were the rushing stars for the South Huron club, elayter carried the ball six times for a total of Exeter Hawks getting set, Terry Bourne will coach 93 yards and scored two touch- downs in addition to booting a convert. Desjardine, last year's quart-, erbacic now working out of a full- back position, was the top ground gainer picking up 170 yards in 18 tries through the Stratford line. The Panthers opened the scor- ing midway through the first period of play when signal caller Scott. Burton booted a 37 yard single point, On the very next day, RonDur- and picked off a Stratford for- ward pass and galloped 3'7 yards for a major score to put the Panthers in front '7-0 at quarter time, With less than a minute re- /Paining in the first half Jim Header went over the Stratford goal-line on an eight yard run to up the South Huron lead to 13-0. After the rest period, the Pan- thers wasted little time getting back on the scoreboard. Bud Desjardine took the kick-off on his own 24 and moved to the Stratford 51 before he was grounded. He came right back to gain another 11 yards in two carries and Jim Hayter took the ball on the next play and raced the remaining 40 yards for his second TD of the day, In the last period, with a couple Race tightens in Legion darts Although the regular schedule of the Shamrock junior hockey will not start for a couple of weeks, officials of the Exeter Minor Hockey Association are busily engaged in organizing a strong Exeter Hawks team. Hayter, Mike Hoy and Larry Laye from last year's midget club, Another midget star of a year ago, John Loader, is trying out with Stratford Burtols of the OHA junior "B" circuit and could return here if cut by the Classic City club, Paul young, Lucan's contribu- tion to last year's fine Hawk club is expected to be back again and a top Zurich minor star, Kevin McKinnon could also be trying out, While Bourne will handle the coaching duties, a manager is still needed for the club. Boyle will fill the position until some one else is secured. Jim Parsons will continue as the club's train- er. Seven members of last year's eight teams will be back in ac- tion. The Port Huron Beefeaters have moved into a IVI ichigan junior league and will be replaced in the Shamrock grouping by For- est. Coming back for another term will be clubs from Dresden, Point Edward, Belmont, Petrolia, Blen- heim and Alvinston in addition to the Exeter Hawks. One change in league rules this year will have one referee sent in to each game by the OHA and he will be joined by two lines- men supplied by the home team. A real battle is shaping up in the Exeter Legion Mixed dart league as four teams are vying for the top position. After Friday's weekly action, the Dart Sharks still hold down first place but their margin has been cut to a single point. The Sharks could manage only two points in last week's game and now have a total of 11. Knotted in second place with 10 points apiece are the Hair- pins, Turtles and Featherflights. The Hairpins broke loose with a five point sweep of their latest match to move into a tie for the runner-up position. Competition is also close in individual player standings as John Link leads the men with six games won with Bill Smith, Jake Lindenfield and Walter Romaniuk close behind with five wins apiece. Jean Estey, Ann Romaniu k, Edna Dietz and Wilma Brintnell are deadlocked at the top of the ladies ladder with three wins each. High single scores are held by Terry Heywood with 120 and Larry Estey with 140. Last week's scores were: Hairpins 5 — Generals 0 Featherflights 4 — Shiphunters 1 Turtles 3— Itchy Four 2 Spares 3 Four B's 2 Canners 3 — Dart Sharks 2 Curlers ready to open season All is in readiness for the open- ing of the 1967-68 curling season at the Exeter curling club. The regular schedules of both the men's and ladies' leagues will start the week of November 6. Harry Dougall, president of the men's loop, reports that his group will curl Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings and the ladies will participate Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Wednes- day afternoons. Mixed curlers are expected to have the same time slot as other years, Fridays and Sundays. An opening jitney for all members will be held November 2, 3 and 4. Anyone wishing to join in on the curling fun for the first time this winter will be more than wel- come and can contact member- ship committee members Ross Marshall or Peter Raymond. In addition to president Harry Dougall, Art Clarke is vice- president of the men's club and Mrs. Elmer Bell heads the ladies' section. George Busche is draw chairman and Gerald Godbolt is in charge of arranging bonspiels, Derry Boyle, president of the EMHA reported early this week that Terry Bourne will take over the coaching duties for the coming season, Bourne, an Exeter resident, was a top flight junior star with the Ingersoll Marlands and saw some pro action in Springfield and Long Island. A goodly number of last year's junior Hawks will be back and will be joined by some over-age mid- gets, Top flight goalie Tom Glavin and high scoring forwards Gary Parsons, Mike Cushman, Craig Chapman and Dennis Morrissey are lost to the Hawks due to the age limits. Bill Chipchase is now working out with the Leamington junior "B" club and is expected to make the grade. Boyle hopes to hold a practice at the Lucan arena, Sunday after- noon October 22 and wishes to emphasize that all positions on the club are open and that any youngsters wishing to try out will be more than welcome. At the moment it is expected Glenn Stire of last year's mid- gets and Jim Glavin, a younger brother of Tom Glavin who guard- ed the Hawks nets for a couple of years, will be trying out for the goal tending position. The defence corps looks solid with Bill Bourne, Scott Burton, Larry Willert and Ron Broderick back from last year's club. Pete Lawson, Rick MacDonald and Grant Walker will be returning to the forward line and will be joined by Bill Fairbairn, Jim 1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111011111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111IIIIIIIIIIII Thank you, Huron YOUR SUPPORT, AS ALWAYS, IS DEEPLY APPRECIATED Charlie MacNaughton Calling All Boys within 15 mile radius of Exeter MINOR HOCKEY REGISTRATION Saturday, October 21 10:00 a.m. to 12 Noon EXETER ARENA ALL AGES Squirts — Boys under 10 years Fee $4.00 Pee Wee, bantam & midget — over 10 . . .

The World Series concluded on Thursday and the new National Hockey League season was ushered in the night before. Only a word on the baseball clas- sic before getting on to the ice game. Last week we said it was a quiet World Se- ries compared to some that St. Louis Cardinal teams of the past had competed in. This is quite true but the 1967 series had its share of exciting stars. The terrific hitting and fabulous base running of Lou Brock and solid hurling of Bob Gibson have to be the features of the series. On the Boston Red Sox side of the ledger Carl Yastrzemski was the main reason they finished first and he continued his clutch hitting and strong field- ing throughout the fall classic. The National Hockey League opened its 51st season last week with six new expansion teams, five new buildings and a flock of new faces both in man- agement roles and in actual play. The NHL has increased its officiating staff to handle 444 games instead of the 210 played in the last couple of years. Each team will now play a 74- game schedule, two more than last year and this includes 50 games against rivals in their own divi- sion and 24 against teams from the other section. For the first time in its history the NHL has scheduled Monday night games with seven slated throughout the season for washday. In the next few paragraphs we would like to take a look at the six new expansion clubs in the NHL and see how they could fare in the new season ahead. KINGS HAVE YOUTH Starting with the Los Angeles Kings, owner Jack Kent Cooke dipped into the expansion draft and surprised a lot of people by selecting 19 players with very little experience in the NHL. Only veteran goalie Terry Sawchuck, exclud- ing coach Red. Kelly, brings along any big league experience to speak of. With the exception of Saw- chuck, who is 37, Cooke stuck strictly to youth as he has gathered together the youngest team in the league with an average age of 25.4 years. The only other King who has seen much NHL action is fast skating Eddie Joyal Who has been up for short stints with Detroit and Toronto. Waiting in the wings to back up Sawchuck is 25-year-old Wayne Rutledge, formerly with the Niagara Falls Flyers who was plucked from the New York Rangers chain. Cooke has some depth in his farm system as he paid a reported $900,000 for Eddie Shore's com- plete Springfield Indian club. The next youngest club in the expansion sec- tion that will be known as the western division is Wren Blair's Minnesota club. Blair, well known for his coaching of the Whitby Dunlops in World hockey play, has gathered together a fairly solid defence. Blair has Pete Geogan, Jean Guy Talbot, Bob Woytowich and Elmer Vasko, all with NHL experi- ence to take care of the opposing forwards in front of goalies Cesare Maniago and Gary Bauman. Vasko, a favorite in Chicago for many years, is coming back after a one year absence from the ice game. Up front Minnesota will be depending on fel- lows like Dave Balon, Wayne Connelly, Len Lunde, Parker MacDonald, Andre Pronovost and Sandy Fitz- patrick. At Philadelphia general manager Norman "Bud" Poile and coach Keith Allen consolidated their position of buying the complete Quebec Aces fran- chise for $600,000. Poile will have adequate goal tending as he grabbed Bernie Parent from the Boston Bruins. At the blue line the only experienced NHL'ers will be Ed Van Impe and Joe Watson. On the forward lines leading the attack will be Lou Angotti, Gary Dornhoefer, Jean Guy Gen- dron, Wayne Hicks, Forbes Kennedy, Garry Peters, Leon Rochefort and Brit Selby. BLUES HAVE TOP GOALIE In choosing players for the St. Louis Blues, general manager and coach Lynn Patrick used the theory if the other team can't score, you can't lose. Patrick has put together a club that should be noted for its stinginess in giving up goals. Glenn Hall, a fixture in the Chicago Black Hawk nets for about 10 years, will guard the twine for the Blues and will be backed up by Seth Martin, probably the best ama- teur goalie in the world. In his career, Hall has never permitted more than a 2.9 goals per game average and was selected to the NHL All-Stars nine times. On defence, the Blues have Al Arbour, a veteran of 365 big league games, Bob Plager, last year's American league bad- boy and Darryl Edestrand, a former London National junior. Heading the St. Louis forwards will be Bill Hay, Don McKenney, Gerry Melnyk, Jim Roberts, Ron Shock, Ron Stewart and Terry Crisp. The latter started his junior hockey career with the St. Marys Lincolns. At the Oakland-Alameda sports centre, coach Bert Olmstead has gathered a club well sprinkled with well known hockeyists for his California Seals. In goal he will be choosing from Charlie Hodge, John Henderson, Jack McCartan and Gary Smith all of whom have seen NHL action. At the blue line opposing forwards will be met by ex-Leafs Bob Baun, Kent Douglas, Larry Ca- han and Aut Erickson. Spearheading , the potential goal scorers will be Wally Boyer, Charlie turns, Terry Clancy, Billy Harris, Bill Rieke and Aryan Hex- tall. At Pittsburgh general manager Jack Riley and ,coach Red Sullivan stuck to a bunch of well travelled veterans and came up with the oldest club in the expansion division with an average age of 20.9 years. In goal will be an established NHL'er Hank Bassen and providing the back-up asSistance will be a couple of American league veterans Roy Edwards and Les Binkley, who hails from Walkerton. Leo Boivin, Noel Price and Al McNeil should provide a good nucleus for the defence corps. The forwards who will be trying to score for the Penguins will be Andy Bathgate, I3ob Dillabough, Val Fonteyne, Earl Ingerfield, Ab McDonald, Ken Schinkle and Art Stratton. LADIES "B" LEAGUE JJ (M.
