There was no doubt but that the better team won but the Clin- ton kids were not disgraced. They battled their opponent all the way end kept trying to the last bell, Little Bobby Livermore earned the number One star of the game as he Made many fine stops. I'Rod Selling and John Woodall were Elmira players who drew the at- tention of the large crowd. - Elmira had a definite edge in the play during the entire game but in the first two periods it was Clinton who took advantage of their, opportunities. Raymond Garon was the first to blink. the red light. He was "johnny-on-the- spot" to rap home Laurie Colqii- houn's pass-out from the corner before Payne could get into posi- tion to block the shot. The ever- dangerous Selling made 'several threatening rushes but his hard shot was missing the target by several inches. John McLennan took a rebound off the pads' of Payne and lifted the puck into the top of the net just before the first period ended to give Clinton a 2-0 lead. The second period was scoreless with Elmira taking complete com- range to have the diamond put in shape for practice which will start immediately,' Two years ago Clinton entered a junior team in the Huron-Perth League, This team played, well during the regular schedule and went to the Ontario' Baseball As- sociation eeniiefinale before losing to Dresden, who won the title. Last season an intermediate team was entered in the Huron- Perth but the entry was with- drawn when .only a few players turned out to the first practices. All persons who.

Livermore made two spectacular saves on, Selling and Woodall, the first a glove hand stab of a screen shot and the second off the toe of his skate. John Cooper and McRae had the best scoring chances for Clinton. An early goal by Selling was the spark that set the Elmira kids on fire. They put on a continual power play but failed to score. Me- Rae was penalized for. slashing. Borden •didn't have time to be- come settled in the sin-bin when an seven seconds' Woodall took Selling's pass and beat Livermore from close in. Less than a minute later Selling gave his team the lead and they,were never threat- ened from that point. Woodall and 13rubacher added two more before McLennan scored his sec- ond goal for Clinton. 'John slid the puck under Payne after' Ray Garon had taken the first shot.' Jerry Farr ended the scoring with two •goals in the last two minutes.

It took the Clinton team over half the first period to get railing but once Ray Garon blinked the light at 10.40 it was' just a matter of how many they would score. The feeling' out process by both teams took ten full minutes and at that time each team had man- aged one very weak shot at the net. After Garon's• goal the Clin- ton teeth forced the play into the Lambeth end and Dou Bilyd had to make several difficult saves. John McLennan gave Clinton a 2-0 lead when he whipped Craig Cos rebound into the net with Bilyd down on the ice from the first save. Leigh Brooks came up with the most dangerous Lambeth thrust but Bobby Livermore kicked his shot to the side in professional style. After the teams changed ends for the eecend 15 minute period Garon and McRae combined for Clinton's third goal, Clinton dom- inated the play completely. Garon, Bruce. Cooper and McLennan each had golden opportneities when in all alone on the Lambeth nettnind.- er only to miss the net with their shots. The Lambeth defence be- came disorganized from the ter- rific pressure applied by the Clin- ton forwards and Bilyd had to continue his brilliant play to keep his team in the game, John Coop- er was credited with Clinton's fourth goal when his.shot.caromed off 1VIerritts' leg into the net at 9,50. Bruce Cooper• broke into the clear in the final minute of the period and missed but in the scramble that followed banged the loose puck into the net. The Mclennan and Cooper line proved to be the best on the ice. They tombined accurate passing attack with persistent back-check- leg they scored five goals and stopped the Lambeth attacks be- fore they could do any damage. 'Clinton came up with three, more goals in the third period as they outshot their disheartened opponents 22-2. At one time they held the puck in the. Lambeth end for over two minutes but failed to score. Bob Livermore, Clinton's little netminder, had a very easy time in the first „game. He had only two hard stops to make. His teammates gave him perfect prq- tection at all times: Craig Cox, Dennis Logan, Don. Freeman and Doug. Macaulay all played well in their defence positions.
