HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1953-11-26, Page 12PAGE TWELVE CLINTON NEWS -RECORD THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 195 Clinton Colts after a rather drastic series of exhibition games started their schedule on Tuesday evening by stopping Orangeville by a 5-3 count. This was by far the best showing that the local team has made in this young season and we feel that the team will show vast improvement as coach Bun Smith works with them. The win will give the team spirit of the .club a big boost and should make them a lot harder to beat come Saturday night when the powerful Mitchell Legionaires move into the Lions . Arena. Mitchell have played one game of their schedule and they won that one in convincing fash- ion, doubling the score on Elmira right in their own back yard. The Mitchell crew will be much the same team as last year, Eddie Dolmage of last year's Colt team, will be the only new face on the club. Jimmy Load- er, who was a standout on de- fence for the Legionaires, is handling the team from the bench this year. Jim, who suf- fered an attack of polio this past summer has been forced to hang up his hockey gear for part, if not all, of this hockey season. We noticed that Milverton were victorious over St. Marys in an exhibition game this week. The Dominions will no doubt have a strong contender as usual. At any rate there were quite a few new men playing against the "stone -town" that did not ap- pear in last years lineup. So far we have heard very little from any other team inl the group but we have no doubt that they will have added stren- gth_ and that the local six will find each club very hard to beat. 0 RCAF Bus Ditched No One Injured Thirty-five airmen from RCAF Station Clinton, escaped injury early last Wednesday night after an RCAF bus collided with a car and was forced into a ditch on Highway 4, one mile south of Hen- sall. Driver of the bus, Edward Boyes, Egmondville, was given credit for his driving skill which averted a more serious accident. Police said a small English car driven by Henry Hogarth, 80, Sea - forth, was making a left turn onto the highway from a township road when it was in collision with the bus. The bus caught the bumper of the car and swerved into the ditch. Driver of the car also escap- ed injury. The airmen were returning to Clinton from RCAF Station Cen- tralia. Provincial Constables Cecil Gibbons and Elmer Zimmerman, Exeter, investigated.

Clinton: Colts Win First Home Game Beat Visiting Orangeville Team 5-3 Clinton Colts started their sea- son off on the right foot on Tuesday evening when they out- fought a determined Orange- ville team to win the first :sch- eduled game 5-3. 'It was a good one to win for the Colts as they had to fight an uphill struggle for two periods before pulling even with the team from the north and finally winning with two goals late in the final per- iod. Edgar opened the scoring late in the opening frame When he batted the puck by Watson in the Orangeville nets after both McEwan and Draper had failed in their attempts. J. Irons got that one back just six seconds later when he picked up a loose puck in front of Nediger after two Clinton players had had the opportunity to, clear but fanned. Irons made no mistake as he tucked the rubber into the bot- tom corner of the net, giving a startled Bill Nediger no chance. R. Gillespie put Orangeville out in front at the 1.00 minute mark of the second period tak- ing D. -Hoare's pass. Draper tied the game up 39 seconds later combining with Edgar who passed the puck out from be- hind the net. A penalty to Frank Mercer set up Orangeville's last goal. With Frank cooling his heels Orangeville put on a power play and stormed around the Clinton net for more than a minute before D. Hoare passed to Cumming at the point and his ankle high sizzler hit the cords before Nediger' could make a move. Hoare had just got settled in the sin -bin at 8.50 when Bun Smith fired a pass to McEwan who had worked in be- hind the defence, McEwan's shot was blocked but the rebound got away from the Orangeville netminder and before he could recover- Smith had raced in to fire the puck into the net from point blank range. Mercer had to retire for med- ical attention in this stanza after he received a cut on the bridge of his nose that required four stitches to close. NOTICE is hereby given that a NOMINATION for One Councillor for 1954, will be held at the Municipal Building, on Friday, December 4, at 1 p.m. THE ELECTION, if necessary, will take place on Monday, December 14 1953.
