JAS. IM1:LGAT`I' WRITES FROM
GILBERT PLAINS
Manitoba, t e.e. 4, 1922:
To the readers of The Exeter Times:
Dear Readers,
Since eorning to Manitoba we have
moved farther north to Drifting Riv-
er, S.D., where 1 airy engaged, in
teaching public school. The class of
people we are called to live and work
among is of the Rtthenia,n type. 1
enjoy teaching these'chictren and find
them very bright and apt pupils in
the school. Our school room. is a,
model of 1920, modern in its struc-
ture and equipmeit, indeed equal to
the best one -roomed school in Iluron
county, Ont. We are quite happy
here' although fourteen miles from
a town. We believe we ,have lrei•e
't „rants mission among the foreig-
ners,
ner s, who seem to be eager to learn..
the English language and adalits
themselves to English custem.S. They'
are very loyal to (beat Britain and
Canada which they testify to in the
numerous patriotic songs ;they sing

bilt:ish flag. ��

LOOSE TfWI1R FIRST-` GAIJE OF
SEASON
The Exeter -Zurich team lost their
first- game of the season to Sarnia
on Wednesday night of last .week
by the score of 4 to 2. This was
their first defeat out of twelve games
played, which is something to be
proud of. Sarnia expected to make
a' bigger 'lead on their' own ice .as
their rink is something of a puzzle
to outside teams: It is short and of
an oval shape and it sure is hard to
get on to. But at that our boys
played a wonderful game and at the
end of the second 'period the score
was 1-1`. At the close of: the sec-
ond period Hindmarsh 'fell and: bruis-
ed his shoulder badly, which slowed
him up for the rest of the game: Sar-
nia, took advantage of this and scored
three Boas in quick order in the start
of the last period. After that our
boys held them right in hand and
went out and got another goal just
to show them, they were still in i;he
game. Cook in the nets for our boys
played the best game of the season.
The fans that were down's say that
Cook stopped 25' out of 29:shots. Mc-
Allister, in goal for Sarnia, is nearly
Sarnia's whole team and stopped 57
out of 59 shots. That is going some
sure.
EXETER -ZURICH PUT SA..RNIA
OUT
The Exeter -Zurich team got back
at. Sarnia on Friday night at the
Donne rink when they put them out
of the O.H.A. running by winning the
game 11 to 6, and the round by 13
to 10. Sarnia came `vitli a two goal
lead which they thought was enough.
to cop the round. They were quite
satisfied that they would have things
their own way. After the play start-
ed things looked different. Withiaa:a,"
few minutes the locals liad overcome
the 2 goal lead 'but during that time"
McAlister, in goal for Sarnia, stopped
ten shots. The fans did not forget
to express their appreciation and the,
old rink resounded to the cheering'
many times during the evening. Af-
ter tieing the round the boys went
right on with the scoring. They set
a fast s lace the for tl e Sarnia crew,
some lightning hockey being display-
ed in the first thirty-five minutes.
They. even, made tlhe fans who have
been following them sit up and take
notice for it was not thought that
they could uncork such speed and
stick handling. Towards i :-_
g the close.
of the first period after the locals
had scored four goals Sarnia tallied
their first couuter.
Iii the second
period the locals scored a- goal with -
iii two minutes after the play started
McI%innon scored on a pass from
Clayton Hoffman. After 0 few more
rushes frons both teams during which
both goal -keepers were doing spec
i;a.cular work Siebert ga t in past the'
defense took a shot, on` goal which
was stopped by ltteAlister hat, re-
gained dU
g Siebert who ro scored. GIar-
ence Hoffioan tallied the seventh
counter when lie harried the puck
through the defence and; located the
net. At this stage the score stood
7 to 1. The next score was made;
by Sarnia on a shot from outside the
defence. The locals slowed down and
Sarnia came to life and polled in t
few. The period elided 8 to 1. The
last period started off a little strenu-
ous with
trenuous'with an inclination to body chek.
The visitors l egarn to gain on the
count and .rear the end of the period:
the score was 9 to 6 and Sarnia a;
needing one goal to tie the round,
When the visitors thought they had
our boys calling for' time Big "Dodo"
takes a turn at it and goes clown and
puts one past McAlister. Ilinclanarsh
played with a sore shoulder, one that
would keep most players out of the
game.He played a real genie zii,i
he and H'offnhan broke up the Sarnia
rushes with ease. They used their
weight in the right place and the
right time. - But a cleaner pair of
players never donned a uniform. The
forward line are sure showing sonic
hair-raising stuff with. their speed.,
They,, seldom shoot from outside the
defence but --work right in. That
was the only way they could beat Mc-
Alister. - He is a wizard in goal- Any
team that can put 11 goals past him
in one game should be classed as
sharp -shooters. After the game iMac'
remarked that he never received such
a pounding of plrcks'.iim any one go111
in his career When he lay do;vn in
the net to stop the puck 0111 fel-wards
shoved puck, goalie and all to the:
back of the net. , He was lucky that
it only happened once as he just
cleared in time on several occasions
before our boys were right in ,on top
of . him- The way he was swinging
at tinges kept` him wondering what
was corning next. When the locals
make for the goal it sure is no pink
tea affair. Cook in goal for the home
boys, was in top form and played' the
game of his life. He was not so busy
as his opponent. Robinson and
George as subs were called ;iport.nt--
'ten and gave 'good support 'to the ` -
team. Garvey and Grarrnaxy played
a good:garne for the.visitorsThey are
fast. skaters and good stick' handlers
but were checked too :close to show
any spectacular hockey. Every one
of the locals but Cooktook a turn at
the scoring. As a Goderich paper
says -they are a hunch of all stars".
The crowd was the largest this sea-
son. P. Leuseur,ajf Galt, refereed a
good game.
