Heading the list is Ken Buchan of the London Ivanhoe club along with Bill Lousin, Sarnia; Dr. John Reddon of London Highland and Ray Tamowski of Kitchener.Last year's overall points champion Gary Weisz, also of London will be returning. The Exeter curling club will be represented by the top four rinks from the Exeter challenge league. The skips are Ross Hodgert, King McDonald, Harry Dougall and Bill MacLean. This bonspiel was organized by Gerry Smith in 1971 on a smaller scale with 18 local businesses contributing to the prize list. Dashwood Industries took over the sponsorship the next year. Prize money for Saturday's event which starts at 9 a.m. will be $620. Gerry Smith is the convener again and he asks us to pass the word on that spectators will be more than welcome anytime through the day and evening to watch top flight curlers in action. To study soviet system The Huron Board of Education will be sending two teachers to Russia in May to an in-depth study of the Soviet System of Physical Education. At a February 17 board meeting approval was given to send a representative from the secondary school panel but on a telephone poll the following day, unanimous approval was given to add an elementary panel to the visit. The request for the trip came from Bill Weber of the Central Huron physical education department and he will likely be representing Huron's secondary schools. The course is three weeks in length and will examine the physical education curricula in primary, secondary and post-secondary Russian institutions for male and female students. In our opinion,this Russian seminar will provide a very rare opportunity to look at an entirely different physical, sports and recreation program. The field of physical education is rapidly expanding in many directions and our governments are lending much support to the idea of participation. „ With most of Canada's population having more and more leisure time our society is sure to have a greater awareness for the need for physical fitness in the next five years. Great curling An identification problem An interesting news release from the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources reached our desk this week. It concerns a workshop which has been arranged by the Wingham district Resource office to advise on identifica- tion of predation or livestock killed by wolves. All townships in' the counties of Huron and Perth and 1-1 some in' Bruce,Will'''Lae` :aSked to send their township valuators: to the workshop to be held at the Hullett Wildlife Management Area on Monday, March 24 at 1:30 p.m. The release says valuators will be instructed in the fine art of identifying coyotes from dogs. Amendments to the Dog Licencing and Livestock and Poultry Legislature now make it much easier for farmers claiming compensation for livestock killed by dogs, wolves or coyotes. The new regulations allow a township to pay the farmer and then get their money back from Natural Resoutces or Agriculture and Food depending whether the sheep or poultry were killed by dogs or wolves. All forms of injury or death to livestock or poultry will now be compensated through a cental source including losses attributable to hybrids, a cross between wolves and dogs. We hope to attend a workshop and find out the difference between coyotes and some breed of dogs, es- pecially the hybrids. We have heard of an instance or two where the animal was described as a dog to get compensa- tion for losses and yet the pelts end up at, a fur auction. An American invasion The town of Exeter will be invaded this weekend by a large group from across the border, but the visitors will be here on a friendly mission. Three minor hockey teams from Trenton, Michigan will be in town Saturday and Sunday for the second half of an an- nual series. Two Fxeter teams visited Trenton in January. Trenton will be bringing atom, pee wee and juvenile representatives with three games being played Saturday and Sunday. The atom and pee wee contests Saturday will get going at 4.30 and 5.30 p.m., respectively after the Exeter-Amherstburg bantam game set for 2 p.m. Sunday games with Trenton supplying the opposition will start at 11 a.m. One enclosed swimming pool Construction work of enclosing the swimming pool at Vanastra, which is the former RCAF Clinton station is ex- pected to be completed sometime in April. This will be a year-round pool for use by all residents of Huron County. Two schools in the area of Vanastra are ask- ing permission through the Huron County Board of Educa- tion to make use of the new facilities. Al Taylor, principal of Clinton public school is hoping to send 60 grade two students to the Vanastra pool for one swimming lesson each week during the months of April and May. The request from Huron Centennial through principal Arnold Mathers is for 34 students in grade five for the same number of lessons. Each child would be required to pay a registration fee of one dollar. A qualified lifeguard and swim instructor will be in attendance. Records being broken A number of records have been broken during this season of play in the Ontario Hockey Association Senior Continental league and the Lucan-Ilderton Jets have taken most of the honours. Rick. Fifield broke the goal scoring record of 42 and is note nearing the 50 mark. The Jets have broken the record of 47 power play goals, tied the mark of five power play goals in one game and Doug Galloway, a charter member of the L-I club tied the mark recently with three power play goals in one game. The Woodstock Royals set the rather unenviable record of losing. 28 games in one season, The Exeter bantams gained a draw with Amherstburg in the first game of third round play in the Ontario Minor Hockey Association playoffs. The two clubs battled to a 3-3 overtime draw in Amherstburg Sunday afternoon.

Dave Atthill was the top EPS performer with an 18 point effort. Jeff Darling hit for eight points and Bill Armstrong notched two points. The Exeter public school team were winners of a recent elementary school basketball tournament. back in Amherstburg but the date has not been decided. The Exeter club outshot their opposition 46-29 but needed a goal by Brian Mercer with only two minutes left in the third period to get even at 2-2 and force over- time. Coach Ron Bogart commented after the game "It was one of those games. We should have won and yet we were lucky to tie it." Along with a margin in shots on goal, the locals hit five goal posts and a cross bar. Amherstburg took a 2-0 lead in the first two periods of play on goals by Kevin Lucier and Mike Noble. The third period was only a little more than a minute old when Paul Pooley put Exeter on the scoreboard for the first' time as he completed a passing play with Darrell Preszcator. Midgets two games down The Exeter midgets find themselves 'two games down in 'their 'best-of-five Shamrock league series with St. Marys. The first game in Exeter Wednesday was a close one with St. Marys winning 6-5. Back in the Stone Town Saturday the home club won by a score of 6-3. After facing a 6-2 deficit early in the third period, the Exeter club came roaring back and cut the St. Marys margin to a single goal. St. Marys moved ahead with the only two goals of the first period only to have the Exeter youngsters tie the score in the first minute and a half of the middle frame. At the 13 second mark of the second period, Paul Shapton put the locals on the scoreboard as he convererted a pass from Doug Osgood. Only a minute later the game was all tied up when Paul Brooks took a pass from Phil Knight to square the score. St. Marys took command from this point and scored four times without a reply from Exeter. John Van Gerwen started the third period counting for his Exeter club at 2.44 registering on a pass from Doug Osgood. Phil Knight was the next marksman on an unassisted effort and Ken Pinder closed out the local scoring. The assist went to Tom Hayter. Brian Metcer scored the tying goal at 12,41 with a good second effort as he scooped the puck into the net after being knocked down. Paul Pooley and Ron Bilcke also assisted. Amherstburg was first to score in overtime at 4.25. Exactly two minutes later the Exeter youngsters were back on even terms. Brian Mercer was johnny- on-the-spot to bang Perry Pooley's rebound into the net.

The Exeter scoring against St. Thomas was well spread with seven players getting one goal apiece. The marksmen were Jim Ferguson, Fred Campbell, Cam Hoist, Dave Regier, Kim McKinnon, John Vriese and John Van Gerwen. Randy Regier, Larry Clarke and Mike Desjardine each picked up two assists. House leaguers win over Lucan Saturday morning house league action for novice aged youngsters in Exeter consisted of two exhibition games against teams from Lucan. In the first game for boys aged seven years, Exeter won by a 4-0 score and in the eight year old game, Exeter took a 7-2 decision.

Brent Dawson and George Pratt each scored twice for the local eight year-olds while Julian Ball, Jeff Taylor and Steve' Batten each fired one successful shot. Jeff Shipley was on the firing end of both goals for Lucan. Dennis Preszcator also helped in setting up the equalizer. With 22 seconds remaining in overtime Randy Fisher playing on right wing was set up alone in front of the Amherstburg net and rattled a shot off the goal post. In a similar situation with foiir seconds left on the clock Ron Bilcke's slap shot from the blueline bounced off a goal post, Coach Bogart assesses the Amherstburg opposition as "a well balanced club, covering well in their own end and perhaps overall a little bigger than we are." He added "I think we can skate with them and with a few breaks on our shooting we should do quite well." HP minor teams are eliminated Three Huron Park minor hockey teams were eliminated this week in "E" competition in Ontario Minor Hockey Association playoffs. The Huron Park atoms put up the best battle with a Wednesday 4-2; win over Dorchester, to even liV.best•-of-three series at a game apiece but they lost the deciding game 2-1 Saturday.
