Dinner success The just concluded Exeter Lions Sportsmen's Dinner was one of the most successful in the 12 years of the event. There may not have been an extra -ordinary speaker, but, on the other hand nobody `bombed' ! Every one of the 10 athletes pro- ved to be very adequate and proved interesting to the near 500 in attendance. Headline speaker Gary Danielson of the Detroit Lions said, "We can learn more from Timmy's like Allan Bullock who represents local crippled children than from winning any football game." Danielson continued, "We are so fortunate to live in a country X'i.� :M;iris'S3 ?�/�.�.. gO9,&i9fd.':"+d 13` - Ames - Serving South Huron, North Middlesex February 13, 1985 that allows us to help others and also grow up to be what we want" . Danielson has experienced lots of knocks in professional foot- ball and after a short stay in Calgary with the Stampeders and a 'number of WFL teams before they folded finally wrote to every NFL club. The Detroit Lions were the oljlly team to take a chance and Danielson is still there. For how long will depend on new Detroit coach Darrell Rogers. Danielson said he knows very little about Rogers other than he has coached at Michigan State and Arizona State. The situation is similar with Rogers. We heard him say on WJR Sporls Spotlight Wednesday night that he knew coaches. He only knew one play Most of the Detroit media al coach. Frank Beckman of WJR r to be angry or laugh.

Getting back to the Sportsmen's Dinner, chairman Jim Barnet - son and his committee should be congratulated for an excellent effort. The big winners continue to be the Thames Valley Treatment Centre and Western Ontario crippled children. Their thanks go to every one who attended. Trotters still alive It's now 58 years since the Harlem Globetrotters were established and they are still going strong providing lighthearted basketball entertainment throughout the world. • Since Abe Saperstein started in Hinckley, Illinois on January 27, 1927 it's estimated they have won 15,740 games and losing only 331 before more than 100 million -people in 101 countries. The Globetrotters longest winning streak was 2,495 straight games. It ended in 1971. Many of us will remember names like Goos Tatum, Marques Haynes', Meadowlark Lemon and Curley Neal playing to the background music of "Sweet Georgia Brown". Play out schedule While the regular schedule of the OHA Western Junior "D" league has been completed, a number of postponed games have been rescheduled in order to clarify the playoff picture. The spot up for grabs in the northern division is third place. The Lucan Irish have been in third place most of the season, but, now the Exeter Hawks have narrowed the gap to four points. The Tavistock Braves have a big say in who gets third place and their first round opposition in the playoffs. The only game left for the Irish is against Tavistock while one of the three Exeter con- tests are with the Braves. The others are against the hapless Mit- chell Hawks. dvocate & North I ambton Since 1673 einfORMINIMENI Pagel A Four back of Irish HAWKS EYE THIRD SPOT The Exeter hawks kept alive their hopes for a third place finish in the northern division of the Western Junior "D" loop over the weekend with a split in two games.

However, the visitors stuck right with their hosts until Exeter scored Midgets lose to St. Marys The Exeter midgets dropped a 6-2 decision to St. Marys in a Shamrock league scheduled game in Exeter, Wednesday.
