Residents of Exeter and district have had some exciting weekends in the last month or two but they still have.one more big event to go. In recent weeks it has been the Mid-Western rodeo and the Exeter Fall Fair that provided plenty of entertainment, This week it's KIN-FEST '71 to be held at the Exeter arena for three days sponsored by the Exeter Kinsmen club, The Kinsmen club will use all proceeds for minor hockey and the purchase of a new scraper and flooding machine for the arena. The big weekend starts off with the 1972 car and snowmobile show Thursday night at which time the Kin Queen will be crowned. Friday night, a giant bingo will be held at the arena with the jackpot of $500 guaranteed to go with no limit on the number of calls needed to declare a winner, Saturday afternoon will be devoted to harness racing which has drawn a lot of interest locally in the last couple of years. At last Saturday's Exeter Fair, the grandstand was packed throughout the afternoon to watch five exciting harness races, This week under the Kinsmen sponsorship, double heats will go in three divisions. Racing secretary Jim Wallace reports that all classes are filled ensuring spectators of a thrilling afternoon of racing. After the races, the Kin club has arranged a gourmet dinner of sauerkraut and spareribs that should catch the fancy of all appetites. Let's get out and support the Kinsmen club in their Kin-Fest venture. The service club is doing a good job in providing monies for minor sports and hockey in particular. Star gazing It's World Series time again and the big fall classic gets underway Saturday. As this is being written the two finalists have not been decided as yet so we still have a chance to go out on a limb with predictions after taking a quick peak at bur crystal ball. After gazing through the maze of uncertainties that come with any playoff series we see the Baltimore Orioles and the Pittsburgh Pirates meeting for all the marbles that go with the world championship of baseball. In the final we, being a long-time American league stalwart have to go with the Orioles in a series that will go at least six games, Guessing. again While we are in the gueSsing mood we may as well take a crack at picking the _final standings in the National Hockey League as the trios start their schedule this week. In the Eastern division we go with the Boston Bruins, New York Rangers, Montreal Canadiens and Toronto Maple Leafs to make the playoffs. Following should be Detroit, Buffalo and Vancouver. Anyone should have little trouble in picking the Chicago Black. Hawks to lead the Western section. The Hawks are the only established club participating with six expansion teams. The Minnesota North Stars should be second best with Philadelphia and St. Louis rounding out the first four finishers. Trailing the field will be Pittsburgh, Los Angeles and Oakland. We will attempt to give our reasons for the Eastern selections this week and follow with the west next week. the Bruins with a star at almost every position seem to be making a different start this year at least during the exhibition season. Coach Tom Johnson appears to be taking a low-key approach and didn't rush any of his players in pre-season games. Boston has adequate goal tending in Ed Johnston and Gary Cheevers and an excellent defence in Bobby Orr, Ted Green', Don Awrey and Dallas and Rick Smith. Up front they have Esposito, Hodge, Cashman, Bucyk to name only a few and of course Orr from his defence post is as dangerous as most forwards. The two most Important newcomers to the ' Montreal Canadiens are coach Scotty Bowman and Guy Lafleur. Bowman is rated as the brightest young coach in the business and Lafleur appears to be another certain super-star. Big Ken Dryden who amazed in his goal tending feats last year is back again and the Canucks are strong on defence with at least six men capable of doing the job, Peter and Frank Mahovlich, Yvan Cournoyer and Henri Richard lead the second best forward attack in the league. The Rangers have probably the best two-goalie rotation in the league in Giacomin and Villemure and their defence of Brad Park, Rod Selling, Jim Neilson and Dale Rolfe is good. Up front, Bobby Rousseau obtained from Minnesota joins fellows like Jean Ratelle, Vic Hadfield, • Rod Gilbert, Pete Stemkowski and Walt Tkaczuk. At Toronto, coach John McLellan and general manager Jim Gergory should have a real playoff contender, The Leafs have two of the best centres in the league in Dave Keon and Norm Ullman while Paul Henderson at left wing and Ron Ellis on the right side are stars at their positions. ' Bob taun will be the, steadying influence on the Leaf defence to comparative youngsters Jim Dorey, Jim McketiOey, Rick Ley and Mike Pelyk. mnllfiihniuimuuibiiinuiiiiuninirininitliiifunumfinnniifiiiinnnnfiiininlununinninuiiniiinfnuliaiil 41 Win in sixth With the score tied at 1-1 going into the bottom of the seventh, Hensall scored two runs on three consecutive singles to win Wednesday's contest by ,a 3-1 count. With two out, Murray Bell, Bruce Horton and Gary Kyle singled to produce the winning and insurance runs, Hensall had taken a one run lead in the fifth on Bob Lavery's bases empty homer while the Hawks tied it up in the top of the sixth when Bill Farquhar singled and came home on a similar hit from the bat of Bill Bourne. Barry Taylor went all the way on the mound for Hensall and gave up only the two sixth inning hits while striking out seven. The only Hensall safeties allowed by Hodgins came during their two run scoring innings. Hensall replied with four in the to of the third to make the score 10,9 and that's the way it remained until the sixth, In the first inning after the first two batters were retired, the. 1lawks bats went to work. Bill Bourne and Bill Fairbairn each doubled, Pete Lawson walked and Ron Grasdahl and Scott Burton singled and all came around to score. In the Hensall second Gary Kyle tripled to get things rolling and before the five run rally to tie the score was over Barry Taylor, Bob Lavery, Bruce Moir, Jack Betke and Paul Morrison had singled. A walk, singles by Brian Ilodgins and Bill Farquhar, a double by Bill Fairbairn and Ron Grasdahl's long home run down the left field line produced the next five Hawk runs in the second. Murray Bell opened the Hensall third with a single and scored when Bruce Horton got a double as his high fly ball was lost in the sun. Relief pitcher Doug Riley rapped out a double, Bob Lavery reached second on another high fly that was lost, good for a two- WIN REC CHAMPIONSHIP — The junior Hawks won the Exeter and district Rec softball championship by edging Hensall Sunday in the fifth and deciding game.

T-A photo Tigers down to final game in playoffs for OBA title get eight base hits, their inability to get hits in the right Spot hurt their cause considerably. While only one run came across the plate, a tptal -of ten Tiger runners were stranded on the bases. On the defensive side of the ledger, the Dashwood club committed five errors and all played a part in helping Kendall runners across the plate. In the first Kendall three run scoring splurge in the third and again in the fifth when they scored twice, the first runner reached the bases by way of a Tiger fielding miscue. Similarily, a five run Kendall rally in the seventh started after the side should .have normally been retired but continued because of an error. The only Dashwood run came in the top of the ninth when second sacker Bud Desjardine - singled and came around to count Race entries for Saturday on a double from the bat of Bob Hoffman. The first Tiger threat without scoring came in the third when Dave Ratz led off with a single, John Hayter singled and Whitey Denomme walked, but all were left stranded, In the fifth Gord Vincent singled, Dave Ratz walked and John Hayter singled to load the sacks with only one out but again the rally was snuffed, John Hayter and Bob Hoffman each collected two hits for the losers while Pete Ravelle, Bud Desjardine, Dave Ratz and Gord Vincent had one safety apiece. Lefty Dave Ratz started on the mound for the Tigers and retired the side in order for the first two innings and ran into his first. trouble in the third when Kendall scored three times. Bob Webb, winner of the first game took over from Ratz during seventh inning trouble and finished up. SH football squads sweep doubleheader 11 The South Huron District High School football teams compiled their second straight Huron- Perth Conference double header wins in Wingham, Thursday afternoon. Doug Ellison's junior Panthers had little trouble in walloping the Wingham club by a Score of 39-6 while the seniors'..under ' the direction of coach Ron Bogart were on the right side of a 15-0 count. The two local clubs are at home this afternoon Thursday on the South Huron school field to the juniors and Seniors from Listowel. The third quarter was scoreless and an attempted Wingham kick early in the fourth quarter that " was blocked by Don Ayotte led to further South Huron scoring. On three successive plays, Brian Taylor made a one-handed grab of a pass for 23 yards, Wayne Regier galloped 13 yards and Stover took the ball over from the 17-yard line. The final South Huron points came on Stover's third score, this time from 10 yards out. The total Panther offence was 408 yards with 303 of the yards coming on the ground.

Shortly after Wingham scored their only six points of the af- ternoon to tie the score tem- porarily. Before the first -period was completed the Panthers had taken a commanding lead.

The Hawks scored lwice in the bottom of the sixth inning Sunday and hung on to gain a 12-10 decision and the league "A" ,division ,championship. Last week, the Dufferin Hotel won the "5" title. Single wins A looping single to right field from the bat of Pete Lawson with two out in the sixth sent Barry Baynham and Bill Farquhar home with what proved to be the winning runs, Sunday afternoon, With the score at 10.9 for the Hawks going into the bottom of the sixth, Barry Baynham singled, Bill Farquhar drew a walk and both runners moved up into scoring position on Bill Bourne's ground-out and Lawson followed with the game winning blow, Hensall scored once in the top of the seventh when Gary Kyle walked and completed the cycle to make the final score 12-10, Both teams started out the game as if they were going to drive the other club out of the park with their bats. The Hawks scored five times in the first inning but Hensall came right back to tie the score, The Hawks repeated in the second with another five run rally and The Dashwood Tigers played only one game during the past week in the Ontario Baseball Association Intermediate "D" finals, but they were both a winner and a loser. The Tigers were trounced 11-1 in Kendall Saturday afternoon to square the best-of-three cham- pionship round at a game apiece, Their win came in the com- mittee room and was actually confirmation of a previous win. In the first game of the series played in Dashwood a week earlier, the Tigers had little trouble in downing the Kendall Eagles by a score of 22-4, The Dashwood win was protested by the Kendall club and an OBA executive meeting was held in Hespeler Sunday to decide the issue. The protest committee decided that the umpires were in error but also ruled the incident in question had no bearing on the outcome of the game as the Dash- wood club was leading 7-0 at the time. The third and deciding game to produce a provincial winner will be played at the Dashwood diamond Sunday afternoon with game time set for two o'clock. The Dashwood club won the Ontario championship in 1968 and 1969 so will be trying to bring their third championship in four years. Reversal of form Saturday's game in Kendall was a complete reversal of the opening game of the series played in Dashwood a week earlier.
