The third week of Industrial
Hockey League action proved one
thing Sunday night. . .that all the
teams in the league are of equal
strength. At the beginning of the
season, candid opinion had the
Blues and Hawks as the two
teams Most likely to succeed.
But with the Blues struggling
to gain narrow victories of late
and the Hawks sudden spill to
near the bottoth of standings, the
E` league has finally shown a
definite trend towards parity.
Even the Kings, with 3 losses,
have been playing on an equal
footing with the opposition. •
The Blues held of a late
comeback by the Wings to nip the
Red team 4-3 in the early game
last Sunday night.
The second game of the
evening had the Flyers edging the
Kings 3-2 and the Stars surprised
by burying the Hawks 10-2 in the
late contest.
Blues-Wings
Ralph Wood returned to action
for the Blues and connected for a
pair of goals to lead his club to
victory. Ken Burgess and Dale
Kennedy added single goals.
Wood also assisted on the
Kennedy and Burgess' goals.
Doug O'Reilly scored twice and
Art Strong connected for a single
goal to account for the Wings'
,scoring.
O'Reilly's second goal came 15
seconds after Strong had scored.
The late goals made the score 4-3
but the Blues held on for the
win
Flyers-Kings

Welcome back to the world of
curling everyone; a special
welcome to our many new
members, both adult and junior.
The curling season got
underway at the Seaforth Club
lase week with the , first games of
the. Thursday and Friday night
draws being played and the
Tuesday afternoon ladies draw.
This week saw the start of the
men's draw on Monday and the
junior draws on Tuesday and
Wednesday night.
The Competitive Draw is also
on Wednesday night, and if yoU
want to put in a team, please call
John Patterson 482-3183 right
away.
Over the early fall months, our
own ice plant was installed
making us independent now of
the arena. This should ensure us
of ice right through until April.
The renovations to our, roof
structure required by the
Department of Labour have not
been done due to the holdup on
the steel.
Hopefully it will be done during
the Christmas break thus causing
as little disruption as possible to
the curling schedules.
The Bonspiel Committee is
meeting this week to set the dates
for their events. I will rep6it those
dates next week for you. Keep
them in mind, either for entering
a team, or ladies,' for working in
the kitchen or baking. Speaking of
working, ladies, please watch the
bulletin board in the ladies
change room for the working
schedule put up by our catering
chairman Peg DeJong.
If yotr don't sign your own
name to work or bike, •it will be
put. up for you. If the dates are
inconvenient for you, please.make
your own arrangements by'
switching with someone else. The
junior girls are also asked to
pleaSe help at the bonspiels. It's
nice to have pretty young faces
serving at the tables. If everyone
helps a little, the load is not heavy
for a few,
The fee schedule, as set by the
executive, is as follows: $75. for
men, $50. for ladies, plus a $2.50
continued to improve last Sunday
with their big 3-2 victory over the
winless Kings.
Paul Hulley and Steve Hutchin-
son scored for the Flyers. A slight
mix-up regarding the score sheets
leaves us without the third Flyer
goal scorer but we should know
somethime' this week who he is.
Sid Wocks netted both Kings
scores. The Kings are a good
team and should show improve-
_
ment before too long. An inability
to finish,off plays around the net
has hurt them considerably.
Stars-Hawks
The Stars completely
dominated the Hawks and if not
for some sloppy shooting may
have run up an even higher score.
The Hawks were so bad that their
rights went wrong.

The final period saw the
visitors score with 041Y-1:29 gcnie
to open a 2.1 lead, however Bill
O'Shea with his second goal of
the night,ascored at 5:31 to even
the- count again.' ,
Both teams had pletitY of
opportunities to take the lead and
at the 15:07 mark with Seaforth
playing short hande4; Don Heard
stole the puck and pulled the
goaltender to put the Centenaires
in front for the first time.
• The Lions piilled their
'goaitender for the final minute
but failed to get the equal. Only
seven minor penalties were called
during the game with Seaforth
collecting six of the seven.
Port Stanley 4, Seaforth 1
The Seaforth Centenaires
travelled to Port Stanley Sunday
night and the Port Stanley Pons
turned the tables on the local boys
as they posted a 4.1 win, Again
both teams played hockey as only
16 minor penalties Were called
with the Lions taking 10 of the 16,
Port Stanley built up .a 2-0 first
period lead as the short handed
Centenaries grew tired near the
end of the period.
The Lions moved up 3.0 after
two periods as the work of
goaltender Lou Arts kept the
score down. The final period saw
the Centenaires hit the score-
board as Paul McClure finally
connected with Dave McClure
and Bill Smith drawing assists.
The Centenaires had plenty of
chances but failed to capitalize as
they couldn't put the puck in. The
Centenaires could have pulled off
another win with a couple more
players but with only thirteen
players, just ran out of gas as they
gave it a gallant effort.
Belmont 11, Seaforth 1
Last Wednesday evening, the
Centenaires travelled to Belmont
where the Bombers bombed the
local lads 11-1. Seaforth first
couldn't get untracked as
Belmont built up a 5.0 first period
lead then coasted to an easy 11-1
win.
Last night the local • boys
travelled to Thamesford but the
score didn't make the paper.
