Times-Advocate, 1986-12-17, Page 22Pogo 2A Times -Advocate, December 17, 1986 ' P • Name outlets for salt of rrew resident fishing licences A week or two ago we talked about the necessity for all Ontario residents who go fishing in 1987 to get a resident angling licence. Spice that time we have received information from the Ministry. of Natural Resources regarding places where the licences may be purchased. The only outlet in Exeter will be at the Canadian Tire Store with Barry J. Finch as the issuer. In Hensall it's John Lavender at Jack's Small Engines, Zurich's issuer is Nancy Ducharme at 46 Main Street, Kenneth R. McLellan will issue licences at the Kip - pen post office and in Grand Bend it's Eugene A. Grenierat Rollie's Sports and Cycle. As of January 1, 1987 most of Ontario's residents between the ages of 18 and 64 will require a licence to fish in the province. This includes ice fishing. The licence fee is $10 for a year or $5 for any four consecutive days. - Mike Malhiot, district biologist at the Natural Resources office in Wingham says a number of projects are proposed locally with the funds from the resident angling licence. These include two fisheries assessments involving Chinook salmon and yellow pickerel population research; stream rehabita- tion projects and rainbow trout stocking. These projects hinge on the amount of funding Wingham District is allocated in 1987. Lucan Cup While the Calibre of hockey produced at the recent Lucan Cup Challenge was great, the same could not be said for the crowds who stayed away in droves. In the next couple of months chairman Tom Hardy and his hard working group of six will be looking for ideas to get spectators back in the rink. One big reason for lack of support seems to be the fact none of the teams are from the local area. That will be a hard stumbling block to get by. As players are not allowed to be signed to OHA playing certificates, any teams put together locally would not be on as high a level as most of the visiting clubs. The Exeter Mohawks would certainly be competitive in the Lucan Cup, but under present rules would not qualify. Another suggestion would be to bring in two teams of NHL oldtimers to play an exhibition game just prior the the two final games on the Sunday afternoon. Sports Spotlight by Ross Haugh For a couple of years, a cyclone division for local teams was add- ed to the Lucan Cup format, but organizers found the two schedules were too much for a two and a half days of hockey. Replays Doubtful It's doubtful any other sports will follow the National Football League in using replay cameras to aid officials in clarification of calls. The official in the broadcast booth has several different angle cameras at his disposal and in many cases doesn't seem to be of much help. We saw one play in Sunday's game between Minnesota and Houston where the official in the booth said he couldn't say for sure if a pass was intercepted while the television replays clearly show- ed the ball hitting the ground. Honour farmers It seems as if most officials over the years do a fairly compe- tent job and letting another opinion from someone hundreds of feet from the scene of action doesn't help much and certainly slows down the game. We remember back some 30 years when Ray Dumont of the Na- tional Baseball Congress, the largest amateur baseball organiza- tion in North America was toying with an electric eye to call balls and.strikes. This method of umpiring was only tried in a game or two and was deemed unsuccessful as•it took away the human aspect. It's pretty difficult to holler or throw objects at something you can't see. So, we imagine umpires and referees are here to stay. At about the same time, Dumont and Bill Veeck, the owner of the St. Louis Browns tried an automatic home plate sweeper. This again didn't work. It's better for the umpire to slow down tension by pulling out a broom and sweeping the home plate clean. He Likes Cars, But It was interesting to read on the weekend in the Hockey News that Peter Klima of the Detroit Red Wings has taken a good look at American culture and says his favourite cars are the Porsche, Jaguar, Ferrari, Lamborghini and Camaro. Only an hour or so earlier we heard on WJR that Klima's pickup truck had been stolen. , While talking of the Red Wings they continue to have a very low goals against total. In their first 28 games, Detroit goalies had allowed only 93 goals. The problem with the Wings is they have the fewest goals scored at 85. To nobody's surprise the Edmonton Oilers after 30 games lead in goals with 134 and have allowed 109. The Hartford Whalers are low in both categories with 87 goals for and 80 against in 25 games. Mohawks beat Elora to move into S�nior 'B' first place behind the Elora net and the game was deadlocked. In the last half of the middle stan- za, the Exeter club notched three more goals and they were enough to get the victory. Mike Clark put the Mohawks ahead on passes from Pete Tuckey and Kris Bedard while Al Gates fired what pro- ved to be the game winner with Cam Doig assisting. Bill Glover accounted for the fifth and final Exeter marker on passes from Barry Baynham and Brian Mercer. The final scoring for the visiting Rocks came from the stick of Paul MacDonald on a power play in the first minute of the third period. Prior to the start of Sunday's game Thanks to two great come -from - behind performances the Exeter Mohawks have vaulted into first place in the Ontario Hockey Association Senior 'B' Central league. Friday night, the Mohawks gained a 5-5 tie with the Harriston Blues in Harriston and Sunday night on home ice downed the Elora Rocks 5-3. The Exeter club now has nine wins, three losses and three ties good for 21 points while Elora and Tavistock are tired for the runnerup spot with 19 points. Sunday's win was the first in two years for the Mohawks over the Rocks. The Mbhawks will be in Elora Fri- day night for a return engagement with the Rocks and the next night they will be in New Hamburg. Both games start at 8:30 p.m. Sunday night New Hamburg will be right back at the South Huron Rec Centre for a 7:30 p.m. start. 'Good third period Trailing 3-1 after two periods of play in Harriston Friday night, the Mohawks came on strong with four goals in the final 20 minutes of play and got an all important point. The same night, Elora also played to a draw. The only Exeter goal of the first period was the first of the game at 21 seconds after the goal by Eccles, less than two ,minutes and was Jeff Bender reclaimed the lead for the registered by Ren Elliott on a pass Blues. • from Pete Tuckey. The quick scoring pattern con - Captain Bob Reid and Randy tinued as Barry Baynham hit for the Casparie scored for Harriston in the Mohawks on passes from Norm opening session and Jeff Bender fired Campbell and Bill Glover at 8:48 and a successful shot with seven seconds 22 seconds later Bill Williams shot remaining in the middle frame.

The Mohawks r:surgence started With three minutes to go Ron Elliott near the three minute mark of the notched his second goal of the night third period as Brian Mercer con- to send the Mohawks home with a nected on passes from Bill Glover and point for their night's work. Al Gates Scott Eccles and four minutes later picked up the on15 assist. Eccles finalized passes from Mercer Another comeback win and Glover to even the'score at 3-8. • At the South Huron Rec Centre Sun - The tie didn't Last very Jong. Onnv day night, the Mohawks proved Fri- day's come -from -behind heroics were not flukish as they overcame a two goal first period deficit. A pair of'giveaways in the Exeter defensive zone allowed Jeff Batman A and Morley Bosomworth to 'put the Elora RcckS bl ft'o;.t 2-0 after the first' 20 minutes of play. The Mohawks came out flying in the second period and it took only four minutes to find a chink in the armour of goalie Gary Trimble who was oustanding in the first period. With only three seconds left in a penalty to Dave Farris of the Rocks, Bryan Baker broke the Mohawks famine as he converted passes from defencemen Dave Nelson and Randy Kraul. Less than a minute later with John , Jongeneel of the Mohawks off for hooking, Al Gates took a pass from Cam Doig and blinked the light NEW NETS DONATED — New meggnets were installed this week at the South Huron Rec Centre through the courtesy of The Twins Ken- tucky Fried Chicken outlets in Exeter and Grand Bend.
