Jack McLlevein led the Beaver
attack scoring '7 big goals. George
Reeves added three markers for
the Beavers With Bill McLaughlin
scoring two. Single markers
Were peered by Ed. POIniage,
Wayne Rau and Bob Beuttene
Miller. Port Elgin's replies
came Irma Jim McKinnon, Lee
Grant and Les Kingston. A total
of 22 penalties were celled with
Port Elgin on the receiving end
of 12. Eaph team received two
major penalties with all 4 being
called in the first period And all
for fighting.
The outstanding player of the
game was Jack McElwain who
long with his 7 goals also added
two . aselsts, The second star
would go to George Reeves who
scored 0 goals and played an out-
standing defensive game. • The
third star would go to Jim Dick,
also of the Beavers for his out-
standing defensive play and
leadership on the ice.
The next home game in this
series for the Beavers will be

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.
Seaforth Beavers took a 2 - 1
lead • in a best of seven series
against Port Elkin on Sunday
afternoon when they handed the
Sunocos a humiliating 15-3 set-
back, One game in the series
was tied,
Playing before a good crowd
of over 500 the Beavers corn-
pletly controlled the game and
were never threatened. The
Beavers opened with 3 quick
goals before Port Elgin hit the,
scoresheet and led 4 - 1 after
the first period.
Seaforth led. 6 - 1 after two
periods and ou:scored the visit-
as-they completely outclassed the
visitors. The Eleaversoirened the
shoring with the only goal In the
first stanza When Jim pick Con-
verted a pass from Bob Beutten-
miller. 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.
The third period was all
.Seaforth as the Beavers
outscored the-visitors 5 - 1 to
complete the rout. The visitors,
however, picked up 6 `ii the 7
penalties called in the final
stanza. The Beavers scoring
was provided by Bill McLaughlin
with 2 and singles going to Bill
Weber, Art Murray and Jim Dick
with his second goal of the night.
Les Kingston replied with the
Sunoco's only goal of the period.
Allen Carter was the first
Star of the game making several
outstanding saves. Bill Mc-
Laughlin was a close second
star as he provided most of the
Beavers scoring power. The
third Star and main threat for
the Sunocos would go to Le s
Kingston.

left a certain amount to be ex-
pected of the men, for if you
don't go they won't come back.
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. .
On Saturday the business
girls took off again ending up
at Fergus.- There were two
rinks composed of Leone Rowat,
Marg. Wright, Marg. Som-
mers and Grace Campbell in
one, They came hoine with
second prize. The,, other rink,_
was composed of Betty Cardno,
Clare Brugger, Marlene Rober-
ton and Marjorie Pappie. They
brought home third prize. Nice
curling girls! '
-Also on. Saturday a rink of
men attended a spiel at Hensall.
Royce Macaulay, J. Patterson,
Jr., Doug Macaulay and ,Jack
Mayhew took part. While they
won two games their plus was
too small to wind up in the
money.
On Sunday the Tankard teams
headed up to Paisley. This, of
courte, is a double team effort.
lihve Cornish's rink was subbed
by J. Patterson Sr. with Lloyd
Rowat, Rod Doig and Harold
Pryce coming up against stiff
competition. They ended up 6n
the bottom of a 9 - 5 score.
However Bob Wilson's rink with
Bill Campbell Jr. , Bill Bober-
ton and Doug. Rowcliffe offset
the score. with 16-8 win to give
the teams a win and a chance
to play in. the Provincial Semi-
finals ,at Kitchener Granite Club
