T-A photo Tummy aches possible Bowlers hungry as usual The performance of about 150 members of the Exeter minor bowling league at Monday's annual awards banquet was excellent as far as appetites were concerned. About 600 hot dogs were gob- bled up by the close to 150 young bowlers. The honour of having the best "tummy ache" sometime Monday evening should have Ruth Durand who has been in charge of the minor bowling program for the past 19 years was master of ceremonies. Heading the kitchen staff was another pair of ladies who have been faithful to their chore for many years. They are Irene Smith, Bob McDonald, and Kevin Varley. After the trophy presentations the youngsters were entertained by Bob, Danny and Murray Heywood. They also enjoyed several comic films including Laurel and Hardy.

Quite often we get on the subject of minor hockey fans, parents and coaches complaining about the refereeing and coming up with excuses for losing. This week we would like to hit at a higher level, The con- duct of some of the NHL coaches in recent weeks hasn't been much better. When talking about the many incidences of rough play in minor and junior hockey the blame sometimes is put on the NHL and its publicity on television. It could be if the big league coaches used a little more diplothacy in their statements this attitude would find its way down the scale. The Stanley Cup playoffs to date this year have provided tremendous hockey entertainment but the endless com- plaints of general managers and coaches and occasionally players has to be irritating to say the least. It would be a refreshing change if the coach of a losing team would admit his club was outplayed or the goalie miss- ed an easy shot or he possibly goofed by having the wrong defensive combination on the ice when the winning goal was scored. An exceedingly ridiculous statement was made by Emile Francis of the New York Rangers after they lost last Tuesday's game to Philadelphia by a score of 5-2, That's right, Francis was complaining about a Philadelphia goal which referee Dave Newell allowed. Okay, let's stick to reason. Had the referee disallowed the goal in question the score would have been 4-2. That call didn't beat the Rangers. No, the Flyers did because they played better than the Rangers in this particular contest. What can be done to stop this petty bickering? League president Clarence Campbell could fine some of these characters for their statements which actually are downgrading their own sport. Penalties have been levied when the charges are serious but should also be considered for any complaint which at- tacks an official. The least should be an order from Campbell telling them in plain words to shut up '. Is this your son? While thinking about good sportsmanship at the professional level we received a news release from the Western Ontario Athletic Association. It fits in perfectly with the point we try' to occasionally get across that parents put too much emphasis on winning as far as their minor hockey sons are concerned. This article is a letter from a young hockey player to his mother and father and goes as follows: Dear Mom and Dad: I hope you won't get mad at me for writing this letter, but you always told me never to keep anything that we ought to bring up. So, here goes , . . Remember the other morning when my team was playing and both of you were watching? Well Mom and Dad, I hope you won't get mad at me but you kinda embarrassed me. . Remember wtien I Went' after the puck in front of the net trying to score and fell. Well, Mom, I could hear you yelling at the goalie for getting in my way and tripping me. Shucks, it wasn't .his fault, that's what he's supposed to do. Then do you remember yelling at me to get on the other side of the blue line. Well, I just didn't know what to do 'cause the coach told me to cover my man, and I couldn't if I listened to you, so while I was trying to decide what to do they scored against us. Then you yelled at me for being in the wrong place. But what really got me was what happened after the game. You should not have jumped the coach for pulling me off the ice. He really is a pretty good hockey coach and real swell guy and he knew what he was doing. Besides, he is just a volunteer, coming down at all hours of the morning help- ing us kids, just because he loves sports. And then neither of you spoke to me the whole way home, I guess you were pretty sore at me for not getting a goal. I tried awfully hard but I guess I'm a lousy hockey player. But I love to play hockey, It's a lot of fun being with other kids and learning to compete in a real good sport. But gosh, Mom and Dad, how can I learn if you don't show me a good example? And anyhow I thought I was play- ing hockey for fun; to have a good time and learn good sportsmanship. I didn't know you were going to get so mad when I didn't become a super star. Love, Your Son.
