Absent when the picture was taken was Paul Norrie, (Staff Photo) to Well, hockey still is the most talked about sport, both professionally and locally. The local action revolves 'around the three minor teams and our entry in the OHA Intermediate "C" League. All teams are now , in their 'respective playoffs with the Bantam team being the most productive. Theepee Wees and Midgets are all but eliminated but have provided some real team Spirit_ and excellent 'hockey. The boys should be congratulated on a successful Season and their managers and coaches for the effort and .time spent helping them. The Intermediate team like the Bantams are faring very well. The Beavers have now taken a 2 - 1 lead in their present series with Port Elgin and .could possibly lead -3 -, 1 by press time as they"'played Tuesday night in Port Elgin. The attendance at last Sunday's game was very encouraging as over 500 fans enjoyed the game. Further afield in the world of Hockey the NHL playoff positions in the Eastern Division are settled along with the first place finisher, in 'the Western. group. However, the third and 'fourth place 'teams in the NHL's Westelei 'division are far from- settled and' it looks like a real battle between Minnesota, Philadelphia and Pittsburg for the last two playoff positions. To name the team that• will, miss the playoffs is almost an impossibility as all three teams are very Close in both offensive and defensive power.• I do feel that Minnesota and , Pittsburg .have slight edges from past performances but the Flyers from Philadelphia have plans to change that. Just for argument sake say Philadelphia will be the team that fails to make the grade. Industrial hockey has now advanced to the final series and, the Stars and Flyers meet for . the trophy. This is good hockey and has improved greatly over the past year with some excellent play. If yOu enjoy' hockey and want to see local athletes in action take in next Sunday night's play. Since last week's notes, the Montreal Expo's have.. come alive and have improved their record considerably in the Grapefruit league. The most interesting point in the pre season gaines this year is the play of the two Japanese professional teams which are not only bolding their own but are winning quite a few ball games. Perhaps this is just a prelude to a real World Series involving several countries and not just the United States..Youre truly was very happy with the results of the big fight recently. However, several local fens who travelled to London to see the fight on closed circuit TN. were not only upset by the decision but all I've talked to completely-disagreed with the judges decision and figures Muhammad Ali Should have won. Even though I didn't see the fight, I still think Joe Frazier Is the better fighter and if a rematch is arranged he will again prove he is the beet. A short reminder that the figure skating club will be presenting their annual show shortly on the 28th of March and if it proves as delightful as previous years it -Will be a Worthwhile event to attend. Seaforth. Beavers moved, to within one point of winning tile 'A' series of their leagUe play- offs when they downed the Port Elgin Sureacoe 5,e. 2 in a game played in Port Elgin Tuesday night. Led by Wayne Rau with two goals the Beavers took a 3 - 1 • lead in games with one game tied. Seaforth outplayed the Sunocos and showed much more determination as they whipped the home town squad. Besides Rau's two goals singles went to Ed. Dolmage, Bill McLaugh- • lin and Bob Beuttenmiller. Port Elgin's goals came from the stick of Barry Walker. The Beavers will try to finish the series this Friday night when they host these same Sunocos in the sixth game of the series.

The first stanza also proved a little rough- as the Sunocos picked up 6 of the 9 penalties called and the only major when Acorn received a 10 minute misconduct for arguing a call a little too etrenuously. The second• period was' more exciting as the play travelled from and to end with both teams having excellent opportunities. Bill McLaughlin scored the, first of his hat trick when he gave the Beavers a 2 - 0 lead early in the period. Port Elgin narrowed the margin when Jim McKinnon beat Allen Carter at 11:02 only to have Terry Craig give the Beavers a 3 - 1 edge at the 17:49 mark.

It's worth thinking about any- way. On Friday we were saddened by - the news of the death of a longtime member of our 64 and one of the founders of our present club in the , person of Jim • Munn. He was most active in the , club, and concerned in it's future. He loved curling and made no distinction when asked to play as to the posit- ion he played. He always played with the, greatest of vigor and will be sadly missed by us all. Our sincere sympathy goes to Lois and the family. .
