He likes, to play 'goal and has al- ways guarded the goal-mouth since he first started playing. "Newcombe and T. Wilson of Kincardine are the I two trickiest players to stop," says Bob, but Roy Wilson has the hardest shot of anybody in the league.'i Bantams Lose Exhibition Tilt The Teeswater Midgets were too heavy and toci fast for the Kinsmen Bantams, Saturday night in an ex- hibition game before the Intermediate affair got under way. The kids did manage to hold their rugged 'opponents to a seven goal score while Jim Lockridge banged in two to ease the pressure. The line of Doug Murray, Ken Hodgkinson and Barry Fry did yeo- man service and would have made the, score a little more even except for some good goaltending by the Tees- water netminder. Macintosh tallied four of the Teeswater counters. First Period—Teeswater, MacDon- ald 4.25; Teeswater, Anderson 12,45; Teeswater, Anderson 14.20.

Before a small crowd of Wing- ham and Kincardirte supporters, the teEunsicarne up with an exciting but wild game. Both teams were disorganized in the first period and it ended 4-2 in Wing- ham's favour. Kincardine must have been fed oxygen in the dressing room and came roaring back to score five times and end the second stanza 7-5, Then it was coach Roy Bonner's turn to try some between period strategy and whatever it was it worked fine. In a brawling third period, the locals outpassed and outshot the Kincs and earned four tallies. Templeman fired the deciding goal at 9.17 of the third. Wilson scored again for the opposi- tion at 17.41 but they couldn't even it up. Ted English and Dewberry did themselves prolid, each with two goals and Dewberry on *two. First Period—Kincardine, T.

Johnny Brent Johnny I3'rent is a Young-looking guy to be called a veteran, but when you consider that he was playing Ju- venile OHA back in '35 and '36, it makes him a veteran. Johnny came out of retirement this year and once more he is absorbing the bruises and shocks of the game. In fact he has two fractured ribs which have hamp- ered his playing lately. A native of that home of hockey players, Waterloo, Johnny has been playing since he was eight ears old. He has been on two OHA champion- hip clubs, a Juvenile club in 1936 and a Junior in '37. During this per- iod he played in many Ontario centres,, as well as in Maple Leal Gardens. Later he played Intermed- iate for Kitchener. It was his good fortune to play Junior OHA with Howie Meeker and to receive instruc- tion from the famous Bobby Bauer. Johnny started with then' first WOAA team in Wingham and play- ed until three years ago. He was with several championship Stainton Spit- fire teams. In between games with the Mohawks he referees games as an accredited OHA referee. `Those who do not know Johnny through hockey will be familiar with his cheerful voice on the air over CKNX on the Top of the Morning Show, the Hayloft Hoedown or the Barn Dance. He is manager of the Barn Dance and has been with CKNX for ten years. Johnny met his pretty blonde wife, Molly, in Kitchener, and they have two children'. He is interested in all sports and last year played base- ball locally.

Time and again Bob I stopped what looked like sure goals, a IN THE SPORTLIGHT "Zirt=m It is, certainly heartening to see that Wingham is taking a long range view on the garne of hockey, which in ease you haven't heard is Canada's national game . Have you taken a look at the future stars who are now. playing Bantam, Midget and Juvenile here in Wingham? Last Saturday night, before the Intermediate game with Goderich, the Kinsmen sponsored Bantams took to the ice against a larger and faster Midget squad from Teeswater, garly arrivals were treated to an ex hibition of hockey which must have Owen a surprise to -those who have never seen the Bantams play, just as it was a surprise to ourself the first I time 'we watched them. They're more than worth the small price of admission to see and we ; hope that it will becbme a standard practice to have them play before an ' Intermediate game at home, We would like to congratulate the Wingham !Mohawks for their foresight in encouraging young hockey talent in this way. The thing that strikes a spectator most when these youngsters play is !the way they put everything into it and their eagerness to get- onto the ice, In other words they love the game for itself and not what it brings them. Many a hockey player forgets this importantt point as they progress up the hockey ladder. Yet the best of the NHL like Syl Apps, Turk Broda and I others were never too busy to give the youngsters encouragement. They I were busy men with a tough schedule to face, yet all we have to do is get down to the rink, pay a small admission and enjoy ourselves watching the Mighty Midgets or Bashing Bantams. Your support to these teams is an investment in to-morrow's citizens. The owners of the multi-million dollar National Hockey League teams have been expressing concern that. the crop of kids is disappearing. Accord- ing to NHL president, Clarence Campbell, "Young players are primarily interested in how little they can work to get how much, and that the modern young hockey player is happier to play for what he can get now in a minor league than to try to make the big time NHL". We are not in a position to argue the conclusions of Mr. Campbell with all his hockey know-how but we feel that there is plenty of hope for the game as long as towns like Wingham have Bantams, Midgets and Juveniles like we have and as long as the citizens take an interest and help them on their way. ilbo get back to Saturday night's exhibition game between Wingham Bantams and Teeswater Midgets, the boys really acequitted themselves well. The final score was 7-2 for Teeswater but the youngsters never stopped trying. Jim Lockkridge scored both tallies for Wingham. It was a valu- able experience for the kids who have not lost a regular league game to date. The first line of Captain Doug Murray, Ken Hodgkinson and Barry Fry gave Teeswater some had moments and there were some shots that looked like sure goals but the opposition goalie was too good. Bill Foster and Jim Lockridge did an outstanding job on defence and slowed down the opposition considerably. Jimmy Campbell's line of Red Houghton and JamieRae were good, Danny Stuckey, Frank Gibbons, Dave Slosser, Carm Bennett, Jim Bain and Dave Campbell were substitutes and carried their share of the load against the heavier club. INTERMEDIATES LEAD LEAGUE Wingham Mohawks are sitting in first place in the Intermediate A loop by reason of their crowd-pleasing victory at the local ice gardens Saturday night. 'i'he biggest crowd of the• hockey season to date almost filled the rink to capacity and they weren't disappointed in the game either, except perhaps the Goderich fans. Goderich played a good game but it was the fine efforts of Bob Sangster in goal that took the steam out of the lake- siders. The Goderich players felt that Sangster was lucky but we say he was just too good for them . The goals that won the game were scored by Wilson, Crewson and Hilbert. Roy Wilson tallied six and was the biggest fly in Goderich's ointment with Crewson next with four tallies, Ted English was the sparkplug for Wingham as well as earning three assists, Bill Lock- ridge, Jim Gebhart and George Westlakke also earned three assists apiece and were outstanding on the ice. Westlake really rocked them on defence with some nice checking and Pym was another hard checker. Coach .Roy Bonner really had his charges working. They looked like champions Satur- day night. ST.
