But the Steelers did manage to get a taste of the action playing an exhibition game against the “A"-rated Ottawa squad and battled them to a 0-0 tie which was pretty nice to take too. Half a loaf is better than none as they say. Coach Ham and Manager Sandy Dunlop (well known in minor hockey circles around here and form- erly head of the RHMHA) figure the kids got a real boost when the executive came up with a sponsor in the name of Bond Steel, got some new sweaters, and kept on winning. l I reason why the team has gone good. “We have three lines all of which could be interchangeable as our first line.” Those players include the likes of Al Graham, Dennis Acomb, Val Steffan, Greg Wol- oski, Kim Mabley, Bill Guianne, Terry Rice, Paul Bailey, Terry O’Brien. Defencemen are Hugh Cutâ€" ler, Pete Raneri, Mike Graydon, Tom Taylor. and Tod Price Midgets to Georgetown in the finals and the dreamâ€" hubble for the minor midgets had been pricked. No tournament after all. Fate had waved her fickle finger but briefly at the minor midgets and then had passed on her way. But it was a rosy dream while it lasted. This was the almost exciting story that didn’t happen which is also a part of life. Sometime it happens, more often. it simply almost happens; Lu". “‘lThe key is to treat the kids like men because that's what they are. They’re around the 15-year- old age bracket and you‘re not handling children any more.” 190 POUNDS YET The most imposing player on the squad has to he Hughie Cutler who at the age of 15 rattles the scales (and opponents on occasion) at 190 pounds. “Hughie improved tremendously this season and is a real good player. He isn't always rough but he can be as rough as you want to make him.” The Steelers can also lay claim to having some glamor in the lineup in the person of Tod Price who does some modelling for television. nuyu fun but also discipline and there is definitely no swearing allowed in the dressing room . “Naturally we call him ‘The Model’," states Ham. “But he’s been having his problem looking like one this season. Just recently he got bashed against the boards. Broke his nose. But he just keeps coming." Mustn’t forget to mention that the trainer on the club is young Steve Sexton who had the mis- fortune a few years ago to lose an eye while play- ing hockey. come ”’0 So there you have it. Don’t want to forget to mention that this does, definiter do, ends hockey for this season in this space. Play ball. ODDS AND ENDS And speaking of ball, the local teams (Dynes Jewellers.

ARCHERY On March ‘20, the Bayvigw Secondary Archery Team participated in and won the Sportsmen Col- legiate Archery Tournament held at the Sports- man’s Show in Toronto. The tournament included 17 schools, which were all exclusively from the Toronto area. Bay- view’s score was 1171 points for eight ends, with each girl shooting six arrows per end. The second place team was Richview Collegiate from Etobicoke. Richview had won the tournament six of the last seven years. As you probably have noticed, my column is not exactly bulging with high school sports, so this gives me an oportunity to voice my opinion on the upcoming NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs. v----.‘~-- Boston over Montreal in 5 â€" The Canadiens have some big men, and they can play a great of- fensive and defensive game, so they should definitely win at least one from the mighty Bruins. New York over Toronto in 6 â€"- I would prefer the decision to be the other 'way, but facts are facts. New York has a better defense, and a more consistent offense (even though not better), which will be too much for the Leafs. If the series should go seven, New York will have the last home game. and this year they have been almost unbeatable on home ice. QUARTER FINALS: Chicago over Philadelphia in 4 â€"- The games between these two teams over the year have been very close, with Chicago winning five of the six games. But, Chicago have more playoff experience under their belt, and should not receive much resist- ance from Philadelphia. Minnesota over St. Louis in 6 â€" The North Stars record over the Blues during the season was 3-1-2, and this I would tend to give Minnesota a def- inite advantage. From past years St. Louis have shown themselves to be tough in the playoffs, so they should winat least two games. SEMI-FINALS: Boston over Minnesota in 4 -â€" The North Stars have not even come close to the Bruins in five of the six games this season. Boston could win this series by using mostly their backup men. Chicago over New York in 6 â€" With the two best defensive teams in the league meeting, the team with the best offence will win out, namely Chicago. Boston over Chicago in 6 or 7 â€" As a true Bruin hater, printing this prediction really hurts. Chic- ago did outplay the Bruins in the season series, but when it comes down to the games that really count, Boston will rise to the occasion.
