ice surface. A miscondiuct. pen-
alty to Clinton's top defence -

matters. Captain Bill question-
ed a minor penalty to himself
and was assessed' the 10 minute
penalty. While he was off Hes-
peler scored two in the first
and one in 'the second. Only one
Hespeler goal was scored 'after

first period.
Upwards of 100 Clinton fans
followed the team to Hespeler.
Murrey redemmed himself
shortly •after he got back on

on defence. Midget player Don
Yeo and his cousin Bud got
