The Bears, champions of the Zurich Rec league, took the best- of-three series two games to one over the Bank Boys, Exeter Rec loop champs. After each club scored four times in the first period, the Bears continued the same pace in the second session but the Bankers failed to find the. scor- ing range. Each team was able to score only once in the final twenty minutes of play. Scoring was thick and fast in the first period. Bob Hayter, the oldest player in the Dash- wood lineup, put his team out in front quickly at 2:26 only to have John Varley fire the equal- izer about a minute later. Bob Hoffman and captain Stan Lovie each scored for the Dash- wood club in the next two min- utes, Then it was the Bankers' turn to gain scoring power as Chuck Becker flashed the red light twice and Lloyd Moore pick- ed up a single to propel the Bank Boys into a 4-3 lead. The Exeter edge lasted only a couple of minutes as Bill Hoff- man beat Bob Callingham in the Bankers' nets at 16:23. Bob Hayter scored twice in the second period to up his game goal total to three while Bob Hoffman added his second of the contest and Jim Hoffman nabbed a single to put the Bears well in front 8-4. The final Bank Boys' goal came from the stick of Jim Russell at 4:44 of the closing frame and Bob Hoffman fired his third of the night to complete the Dashwood total as time was run- ning out. uuuuuuuuuuumuuuuuunuuuuuuuuuuliuuln BOWLING SCORES nunnnnnnnnunuunnnnununnoununuuuuun PEE WEE BOYS & GIRLS ZE (C.

Association hockey grand championship could go right to the wire before a win- ner is acclaimed. At the monient the creditor: Tigers and MilYertoO Flyers are deadlocked at two games apiece In a best-of-seven series. The fifth game was played in Exeter last night, Wednesday, The sixth goes in Milverton Friday and if a seventh and deciding game is necessary it will be played back in Exeter, Sunday night. After dropping the first game a week ago in Milverton by a 7-2 count, Crediton bounced back at the local arena Thursday to post an 8-2 victory, gained a tight 8-7 decision in Milverton Saturday and were downed by the visiting Flyers 9-5 on Exeter ice, Monday. FALL BEHIND EARLY In Monday's game here, the Tigers found themselves on the wrong end of a 4-0 score at the end of the first period and they were never able to make much of a dent into the deficit as they lost 9-5, While the Crediton crew failed to score in the first session they missed a couple of good scoring chances. Dennis Morrissey was robbed by Milverton goalie Mike Mohr on a penalty shot attempt and Jamie Robb also was beaten on a clear breakaway. Morrissey and Robb each counted twice while defenceman Cord Vincent added a single goal to complete the Crediton scoring for the night. Barry Dietz was best in the Milverton scoring department with a hat trick to his credit while Murray Kerr notched apair of counters and singles were added by Ron Kipfer and Rex Kipfer. WIN IN OVERTIME A goal by Glenn Overholt at 7:35 of the overtime period gave Crediton an 8-7 win inMilverton, Saturday. The two clubs battled to a 6-6 tie through regulation time and Creditors scored twice thillee etr nac tien With the home club replying only once. Milverton moved ill front 4-0 after the first twenty minutes of play and seemed tohayethe game wrapped up, Crediton fought back and closed the gap to 5-4 after Jarnaie•Robb and Earl Wagner led the Crechtop scoring attack with three goals each. The other Tiger counter in addition to Over- holt's game winner was fired by Dennis Morrissey. Murray Kerr, Ed Erb and. Ron Kiefer each scored twice to pace the Milverton attack while John Scrimegour added a single coun- ter. STRONG THIRD PERIOD An unanswered four goal attack in the third period was more than enough to send the Crediton Tigers on the way to their 8-2 win in the second game on Exeter ice, Thursday. The Tigers confined most of their scoring to the first and last ten minutes of the game as they also scored three times in the first two minutes and a half of play to take a lead that stood up the rest of the way. Craig Chapman, an addition from the Flyers for the Milverton aeries, opened the scoring at 1:40 of the opening Period and in less than a minute successful shots from the sticks of Dennis Morrissey and JaMie Robb had upped the Creditoit lead. to 1,0. Milverton were able to mount their only scoring threats of the game in the dying moments of the first period as Murray Kerr and Bob Grapp put t he puck behind Tom Plavin in the Crediton cage. Chapman was back with the only score of the second period to give the Crediton club a 4-2 margin at that point. Play in the third period ranged back and forth without any further scoring until the 10:12 mark when the Crediton club broke loose and wrapped up the game. Earl Wagner, another rein- forcement from Zurich, notched the first. goal and in quick order Glenn Overholt fired a single and Dennis Morrissey checked in with his second and third goals of the night. Eleven minor penalties, six.to Milverton were called in the cleanly played contest and no goals were scored while either team was short handed.

GOOD SPORTS By 10. H4.4.0 Smelt are running Due lack of space last week we Were unable to VOniPleite our story on smelt fi,shilig. Since that time we have received plenty of evidence that the small fish have started their runs into shallow waters- Thanks to Randy Smith and Ken Bender of Crediton we are this week enjoying a couple of meals. Of the tasty fish. A group of four Crediton boys trav- elled to the West Lorne area Saturday night and had little trouble in bringing home all their car could carry. In a small stream they were •able to scoop the smelt out with their bare handS. In this immediate• area, Turnbull's Grove has proven to be one of the better spots for catching smelt and with the expected co-operation of the weatherman, local fishermen should be able to try out their equipment later in the week. The smelt usually move into shallow waters for about a week for spawning purposes and then re- treat to the deeper waters. This retreat, besides be- ing the result of a release from spawning demands, is 'likely an escape from the rapidly warming surface waters. Lake Erie waters warm quickly after April and this warming is confined to the surface. The smelt therefore move into the underlying cold water and remain in water at depths from 80 to 120 feet for most of the remainder of the year. Various factors affect this distribution of the smelt. For instance, newly hatched and yearling smelt do not move into deeper water but remain in surface waters for much of the summer. In addition, adults do not just remain in the depths at all times, but move away from bottom at night. Seasons and storms also change the depths and density of the main body of smelt. NEW LINES The recent trade between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings has enabled each club to come up with a new line made up mostly of play- ers obtained in the deal. The. Leafs put the three former Detroiters, Norm Ullman, Floyd. Smith and Paul Henderson to- gether as a trio 'known as the Wing Line. Over in Detroit, Sid Abel has created a HUM line comprised of his veteran great Gordie Howe and newcomers Gary linger and Frank Mahovlich. The play •of Unger has been as pleasant sur- prise to Abel. The 20-year-old youngster who started the season with the London Nationals of the Junior OHA was the player Abel was after and actually finalized the deal although he didn't expect such early returns. It is the first •time in recent years that the Red Wings have picked up an excellent young player in a deal. It usually was the other way around with the Detroit club giving up promising youngsters for older, experienced, players. In 13 games as a Red Wing, linger scored five goals and assisted on 10 others for an overall 6-11-17 record in his first 28 games in the NHL. It would be easy to disthiss the young centre's work with the Wings. After all, he's playing between Mahovlich and Howe. That is, it would be easy if you hadn't seen Unger play. "There's nothing he can't do," praised Howe, "shoot, check and make the plays. And when you tell him something, he listens, that's rare these days." In his 22 years in the NHL, Howe has teamed with more players than anyone in hockey and of Unger he says, "He's more aggressive than anyone I've played with recently." "He's •a funny guy," Howe grinned. "The writers are always asking him about playing 'between Frank and myself so he told one guy it would be all right 'If they learn to put the puck into the net.' " Unger himself is now happy with the shift to Detroit, "I was surprised when I was traded to De- troit but I like it now. It would take me three or four years with Toronto to get to play regular." The Wings also picked up a bonus in Unger. Since he's only 20, they don't have to protect him in the June draft. And from the way he played since joining the team, it looks like they'll keep receiving bonuses for years to come. Unger isn't the only one who thrived with the change of line mates. Since the trade, Howe scored nine goals in 10 games and Mahovlich scored several including the 300th of his NHL career. FEW CHANGES While the rosters of major league baseball teams change quite a bit each year, not too many moves are made by the fellows who send descrip- tions of the games out over the air waves. The radio and television announcing staffs of most of the clubs have been fairly stable over the years but a couple of recent changes are a bit sur- prising, Mel Allen, who became famous With his "How about that?" comments 'on New York Yankee games for more than 20 years, has been replaced. Allen didn't Waste much time in finding an- other 'position as he is taking over one of the posts on the Cleveland Indian telecasting staff. The other move has veteran Cleveland radio announcer Jimmy Dudley replaced by former Cleveland and Chicago pitching ace Herb Score. At New York, a couple of former Yankee playing stars Phil Rizzuto and Jerry Coleman, are combining to fill Allen's shoes. Ex-players are very scarce in the broadcasting department, In addition to the ones already mentioned, the Only announcer in the American league with playing experience is Mel Parnell at Boston. The National league also has four former dia- mond stars sending outdescriptions of the games in 1968, Lou Boudreau handles the Chicago Cub games, Joe Nuxhall is at Cincinatti, Ralph Killer on the New York Met staff and Richie Ashburn at Philadelphia. m•'.1t,:,..t.:,4.?&X • 14'wts'in". •ozaitP,v :"...kkktw :i...Atm.tumktet-guriit WE CANNOT GUARANTEE . • • pUblica.tion of any advertising received after our deadline, Please remember display advertising must be received by 6 P.M.
