Seaforth Industrial Hockey League Finals got under- way last, Sunday night with the Stars pulling • out a 4 3 come from behind victory over the Flyers. The game was a close 'checking • affair all the way through. Only one goal was scored • in the .first period and that was scored by Grant Carnochan of the Stars on a breakaway with assists going to Don Hulley and Bill Teall with only twenty sec- onds remaining in the' period. Both goaltenders made ex- cellent saves with Montgomery of the Flyers making the key save 'by stopping Teall on a breakaway. - . . The final period saw 'both teams come out strong and with only a. minute played give Broome gave the Stars a 2 = 0 lead as • he scored an unassisted goal. ' Then at the 11:25 mark the Flyers got on the scoreboard as veteran Wayne Scott" 'let"go- with a, hard, low wrist shot, which beat the partially screened Osborne. Brian Flanagan drew an assist on the play. Less than three minutes later the Flyers tied the game with hard-werking Larry. Lane beating Osborne from close in after taking a pass from Brian Leonhardt. The Flyers had the Stars tied up in their owit end for the larger • part of the period and finally Captain Al Wilbee put the Flyers' ahead 3 2 with ,assists going to Tom Dever- eaux and Flanagan. The Stars then put on the pressure and Grant Carnochan 'scored his second breakaway goal of the night to' khot the • Score at 3 - 3. .In the final seven minutes of regulation time both. teams had excellent scoring Oti- pertunities only to be gobbled, up by the goal' tenders. At one point Leonhardt of the Flyers had a wide open net and rifled one off the goal post. Finally in the last minute of play the Stars line of Broome, Jim Carter andBab Watson swarmed in on the -Flyers' net and during a wild scramble Broome jammed the puck 'past Montgomery_ with only' • four seconds -remaining on the clock to give the Star's the victory. Bob Watson assisted on the win- ning goal. The line of Broome, Carter arid Watson, who scored only 14 goals during the regular season, now have scored seven times in ▪ the four play-off games to date. There were 20 penalties called in the game with the Flyers receiving eleven of them.

There was no scoring in the second period with both goal- tenders, Osborne and Huard making many key sages. It took Carter only 25 seconds into the third period to put the Stars ahead 2-1 with the assist going to Bill Kerr. Larry Bropme (just like his father before him) picked up, a loose puck at the Stars blue- line, displaying dazzling' speed and great manoeuvrability raced in all ,alone and beat Osborne with a low drive to tie the game 2-2. At the 8:35 mark the Stars regained the lead as Don Hulley picked up a perfect pass from ' linemate Bill Teall and fired the puck past Huard from about ten feet out. Less than a minute later the never die Blues tied the game at 3-3 with Bill Boshart blinking the red light and Jack Groothius drawing• the looksassist. At the twelve minute mark Carter fired in his third of tire game (which proved to be the winner) with assists going to linemates Watson and Dave Broome. The Blues pressed hard to again tie the score but the agile .0sborne closed the door each time. The Stars offence contin- ued to work hard and at the 18:20 mark Bill Teall put the' icing on the cake by jamming the puck past Huard with Reiny Van Loon drawing the assist.

MI" With the first game of a best of seven series with Port'Elgin already completed,--it -might be interesting to hear what Hank Smith, writing in the Port Elgin Times has to say of the series between the Beave rs and Kin- cardine. "The Kincardine Bulldog- Seaforth Beaver semi-final was something else. To relate the round for round .development of circumstances pertaining to this set, would be impossible in .the space devoted to these writings. Trailing by a 10-5 score at the end of the second period of the first game of the now defunct and deliriously daffy "extra play off" series with the Seaforth Beavers, the Bulldogs laited some ,30 „seconds on the final frame. At this point in the Beavert% rout of a short-staffed'-Bulldog team, -the referee called a pen- alty against a Kincardine player that infuriated the Bulldog man- agement to such a degree, they pulled the team off the ice never to return. It all happened last Sunday, and that feverish move by a heated manager and coach has now cost the Kincardine club the series and brought to a close their 1971-72 season of inter- mediate action. On Monday night, Allan Bax- ter, President of the WOAA, and convenor Ivan Gardiner of the intermediate • loop, summoned league officials to wingham to deal with the hassle. The pow- wow of top brass resulted in a decision being reached to sus- pend Kincardine from further competition, for their violation of game rules and ethics. What started out as a real razzle-dazzle puck playoff party, the Beaver-Bulldog confrontation turned into a comedy of errors, Saturday Morning Hockey rrrn,rrvt,%,d,:t Bea ers- drop opener • STaforth Beavers dropped the opening game of a best of seven :Series with Fort Elgin Sunocos. The game was played at Sea-forth Arena on Tuesday evening. Final score Ares 9 - 7. a- ' Jack McLlwain and Bob Beut- tenmiller scored twice for the . Beavers with singles going to Ed. Doltnage, George Reeves and Ken Doig, Second game in the series is scheduled for Thursday night in Port Elgin, Third and fourth games are to be played Saturday night at 8 p.m.' in Sea-forth and Sunday at 2:00 P.M, in Port E igin. Bowlers hold -euchre, A lawn bowling bridge and euchre party was held at the resi- dence Of Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Ford and arranged by Jean Lunn vend Ella Munro. There were 24 present. Two tables of bridge and four tables of euchre. The bridge ririze was won by Dinah Sills donated by Donna Patterson. Euchre was won by Jean Lunn donated by Gladys Wright. Lunch was served • by Alice Reid,„verda Sinclair and Belle Roberton. A further party was held at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. F. C.J. Sills on March 6th, A cold and stormy night resulted in there being only five tables of euchre. The euchre prize was won by Belle Roberton donated by Florence Kay. Lunch was served by Effie Stephenson and Dorothy Park. K 4r Also on the sports page was a letter from the manager of the Kincardine Bulldogs, in which he blamed the series outcome on everything from poor refereeing to dictator conduct by members of the Beavers. - • I was under , the impression that the referees were in charge of 'the game and the cal- ling of penalties is- their method of controlling the teams involved. The player shoving the referee got' just what he asked for when he let his anger carry him that far. Had he immediately gone to the penalty box as he was '-supposed,tO, he would have ended up with two minutes, -the team captain would not have ended up with a misconduct and the team would not have been called off the ice by the Manager. As to Kincardines assump- tion that the, rules in a series can be changed part way through, I disagree with this. Any rules in force at the start of a playoff series-should be carried through to its conclusion. If a tie is allowed to, stand in game three of the series then a tie should also stand in game seven. Now that we have aired an opinion on this, on with the Sunocos - Beavers series.
