Despite a wonderful holiday which. included a Western Canada trip of 17 days and 5,300 miles it's great to be back home even if it means getting back to the typewriter, 'This column will probably seem rather tame to our readers after.last week's epistle by Ted Roweliffe and his pretty beach bail model. Not to be corn letel have made the second round of play in the North American Midget Cup playoffs and also with an American team have been nominated as the North Exeter will really be on the map in the next few months thanks to the efforts of a group of seven and eight year-old. boys. The Exeter squirts weer team American teams of the year.

It's difficult to know where to begin in talking about a trip which included stops at Banff, Jasper, Lake Louise and Ina desperate attempt to, save the match, Exeter made six changes in their line-up for the second-half. The changes proved successful, as Exeter gradually took full command of the game. Scott Lovie, back at centre- forward after keeping goal in the first-period, converted a penalty- kick mid-way through the second- half, and five minutes later he found the Lambton net again with a well placed 15-yard drive. Full-backs Eugene Glanville and George Pratt stopped any *further threats from the Lambton forwards, and the Exeter squirts recorded a 2-1 victory which was enough to put. them through to this years North American play- offs, Exeter atoms blanked Seaforth 0 and the local mosquitos dropped a pair of decisions, They lost 5-0 to St. Colurnban and 7-1 to Clinton. Chris Van Gerwen with a two goal effort led the Exeter atoms to their win over Seaforth. Scoring in single fashion were Joe Martens and Andrew Win- ters. The lone mosquito goal of the week, was kicked by David Shaw. The Exeter team found themselves a goal behind for the first time this season, as Lamb- ton went ahead on a penalty-kiek after 19 minutes play. The visitors continued to control the game and held on to a 1-0 lead at the interval. • 4,414.4A14.

T-A photo Crediton bantams advance to second round in WOAA The Crediton bantams wasted little time in eliminating Palmerston in the first round of playoffs in the Western Ontario Athletic Association, In Crediton Wednesday night, the home club scored a 4-3 victory and back in Palmerston Friday they again came through with a close win by a score of 5-3. The semi-final round of playoffs started last night Wednesday with Seaforth playing in Crediton. The second game is slated for Seaforth Friday night with a third game if necessary back in Crediton Sunday evening. The winner of the 'Crediton- Seaforth series will meet either ChesleyorHanover for the WOAA championship. Two runs in the top of the sixth inning in Palmerston Friday provided the Crediton club with the margin of victory. With the score tied at 3-3, Perry Pooley opened the Crediton sixth with a triple and scored on Gerard Brennan's single. Paul Pooley was safe on fielder's choice and scored the insurance run on a single from the bat of Dennis Pfaff. Crediton scored two markers in the first inning when Rick Govers walked, Jerry McCann singled Tigers win first in playoff for OBA • The Dashwood Tigers have taken the first step toward participation in Ontario Baseball Association playoffs. On their home field Monday night, the Tigers scored a 17-12 victory over the Zurich Mets in the first game of a best-of-seven series to decide the Huron-Perth representative in provincial "D" playdowns. The second game is being played tonight, Thursday in Zurich at 6.30 p.m. The third contest will also be in Zurich Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. The series then switches back to Dashwood for the fourth tilt Tuesday at 8 p.m. with a fifth if necessary on Friday, August 15 at 8 p.m. A sixth if it is needed would be in Zurich on Sunday, August 17 with a seventh back in Dashwood on Tuesday, August 19 at 8 p.m. In other OBA elimination, Thorndale and Clinton will be meeting to advance in the "C" category and Arva will represent the Huron-Perth in the "B" classification. In Monday's contest the Tigers seemed to take an un- surmountable lead with 11 runs in the fourth inning to move ahead 15-3 but Zurich bounced back and scored six times in the ninth inning to make the outcome a little closer. The Tigers moved in front 2-0 in the second inning when Jim Hoffman singled, Perry Stover walked and both came around to score on another walk and a single from the bat of Jim Dietrich. The Mets got one run back in the top of the third as Kevin McKinnon singled and completed the bases cycle on a similar hit by Gerard Charrette. The Dashwood club moved ahead 4-1 in the third with two more runs. Hits were delivered by Jim Guenther and Randy Tiernan the school break next spring had been received, The Exeter club has been in- vited to play four exhibition games in England and also practice with an English professional club. Silcock said free accommodation for the boys would be provided in England, The other team nominated as team of the year is from firistol, Virginia and they are expected to travel to Holland for a similar series, In the NAMC playoffs the Exeter club will now meet the Michigan Troys from Pontiac.' The sudden-death game will be played in the Michigan city within the next week, The exact date has not yet been set. In six playoff games to date, the Exeter boys have won five and tied one while scoring 22 goals and only allowing six to be scored against them. Coach Silcock, represented the Exeter club at a meeting in Niagara Falls, New York Monday night when future playoffs were arranged. On their six game record, the Exeter club proved to be in the top 25 teams in North America having picked up 17 points along with 12 other clubs. Last year's champions received a bye into the next round along with 11 teams who scored 16 points in the preliminaries. Of the 13 teams competing in the first round, the four who perform best will go into round two against the 12 teams receiving byes. The final four teams will meet at Downing Stadium in New York on Saturday, October 4 to decide a grand champion. The next opposition for the Exeter squirts are the Michigan Troys who make their home in Pontiac, Michigan and are last year's Michigan State junior soccer champions. The population of Pontiac is about 100,000.TheTroys pick their team from some 120 players who play in their house league. In addition to their excellent record in the NAMC playoffs, the Exeter ,youngsters are un- defeated in seven starts in the Huron Minor soccer league having scored 25 goals while only giving up a single score to the opposition, Their overall record is 14 wins and one tie in 15 starts with their scoring record, reading 51.7. 'The 'Exeter club reached the next round of playoffs as the result of a thrilling 2-1 victory over the Lambton County all- stars Thursday night at the SH- DHS field after winning the first game of the series by a 10-2 score. and both came around to score as Darrell Preszcator rapped out a single. Palmerston scored a single run in the third and came back with two markers in the fourth to take a one run lead. Crediton evened matters in the fifth as Rick Govers singled and was able toicount on a Palmerston error and an infield out. The Pooley twins, Paul and Perry shared pitching duties for the winners. Paul was the starting hurler going the first five innings giving up three runs and the same number of hits. Perry took over for the final two frames holding the opposition scoreless while giving up two singles. Paul picked up a half dozen strikeouts while Perry fanned three in two innings. In the first game the Crediton club also came from behind to ,,gain the win. Palmerston scored two runs in the first and added a single score in the third before the Crediton club could get into scoring gear. After the first two batters were retired in the bottom of the fifth, Rick Govers and Brian Rader singled and both were able to score with the help of a couple of Palmerston fielding miscues and a single from the bat of Darrell Preszcator. With one out in the sixth, Perry Pooley singled and scored the tying run on a single by Randy Parsons who was able to notch the winning run on a walk and a fielder's choice. Paul Gaiser started on the mound for Crediton and was relieved by Perry Pooley in the top of the third when Palmerston scored their third run and were threatening again. Pooley was able to put out the fire in the third and went on to hold the opposition scoreless the rest of the way. He gave up five hits, all singles and struck out four. Centennial Soccer The Exeter Centennials con- tinued their impressive record in Ausable league soccer play this week with a 2-0 victory over Grand Bend, Tim Stover in goal for the Centennials came up with his second straight shutout as he kept the GB opposition off the scoresheet. The Exeter goals were booted by John Rasenberg and Ron Funston with one coming in each half. The Centennials will be back in league action Sunday evening at 6 p.m. when they travel to West Lorne. In Huron Minor soccer play the Zurich scored twice in the top of the fourth after two were out. Doug Jeffrey and Dave Schilbe singled and scored. Kevin McKinnon also added a one base blow.

Of interest to our golfing friends, the golf course at Banff contains a total of 156 sand traps. Should be a real challenge. It was amazing the number of Ontario people we ran in- to. Doing a Sunday afternoon highway count in the Banff- Jasper area Ontario cars accounted for about eight percent of the travellers. The first night of camping at Cooking Lake just outside Edmonton brought us in contact with a group of young fellows from Ontario looking for employment in the Ed- monton area, They were from Forest, Goderich and Parkhill. On a later segment of the trip we ran into Dave Robin- son and his wife of Corunna in the park at Drumheller, Robinsons are avid fossil and rock collectors. With the better half of the Haugh family also very much interested in the same thing we hope to be in touch with the Robinsons in the near future. Dave is an employee of Imperial Oil in Sarnia and is also chairman of the Lambton County Board of Education. The Drumheller stop included a tour of the dinosaur trails and several efforts digging for rocks, petrified wood, dinosaur bones and what have you. The trunk of our car contained many items of driftwood, rocks and one very interesting leaf print. These leaf prints are hard to come by in just ordinary searching in the hills around Drumheller and was discovered when our brother-in-law Bob Lambie smashed a rock. The tour of the dinosaur trails includes a trip across a small creek on a barge type ferry. Only about five cars can be taken across on each trip. The distance is only about 150 feet. • It's called the Bleriot ferry named after Al Bleriot one of the first collectors of dinosaur relics in the Drumheller area. His brother Louis Bleriot was the first to fly an air- plane across the English channel. The dinosaur museum is a must place to visit ,for anyone interested in this type of exploration. Actually two visits should be made to the museum. One upon arrival in Drumheller and the second after a tour of the trails to ac- tually identify what was found on the trip. Our stay in Drumheller was at a camp grounds operated by the town. The grounds are located in the town park adjacent to the swimming pool, arena and ball fields. Talking to some of the folks in the park we discovered that the camp grounds were open to the public free of charge for a few years until they ran into vandalism problems. Due to vandalism the park was closed for one season, but due to terrific pressure from campers unable to find suitable accommodation it has been reopened with a caretaker and now a nightly charge is made to visitors. It is an ideal location for a camping area with plenty of trees in the town park, washrooms available in the arena and the swimming pool also nearby. While in Drumheller we dropped into the office of the weekly newspaper and found an operation quite similar to the T-A, The big difference was their day of publishing with the paper hitting the street on Wednesdays. One of the neighbours in the Drumheller camp was a couple from Calgary. Conversation got around to the Chinook winds which hit the western provinces occasionally and the lady told us a story about them. Apparently one December day, a western farmer went to town with his sleigh to pick up some groceries. As he was leaving the store he was told a Chinook was on the way. He hurried home and was able to make it safely on the snow but his dog starting out about 60 feet behind had to swim all the way. Two Ontario natives While in Saskatoon we dropped into Marquis Down racetrack one evening to watch the harness horses in acion and was surprised to find two horses well known to this area. Sunning in a $1,500 claimer race was Twinkles Adios, a 13 year-old bay gelding formerly owned by Erie McIlroy of Grand send and now leased by R. Ir. Stewart of Calgary. A few years ago, Twinkles Adios was one of the best pacers in Western Ontario. The program at the Saskatoon track showed Twinkles Adios with lifetime winnings of 05,- 531. Talking to Eric McIlroy since our return we found out Twinkles Adios was Sold to trainer Bill Janes five or six years ago. As a three year-old Twinkles Adios won the Canadian Futurity Stakes and was the pride and joy of Merrywod Farms, One of two Malroy owned pacers, currently in action, MerrywoOd Rick won a stakes race in Detroit Saturday night In a time of L58. In the Saskatoon race which was A distance of a mile and a quarter, Twinkle Adios finished seventh in an eight horse field. Re was in contention as the field rounded the last turn but faded badly in the longer race. The same night one of the races went a distance of a mile and a half. This is certainly a grueling distance for harness horses. GET OUR PRCCE BEFORE YOU BUY Jerry MacLean & Son Exeter AUTOMOTIVE LtD, 235-0800 OUR STORE IS BIG ENOUGH TO SERVE YOUR NEEDS...
