Alter court, Robinson inform- ed Magistrate Glenn Hays and Crown Attorney W. G. ,Coele rane that he would lose h.is job if he served the sentence, The magistrate then decided to release the youth on his own recognizance to keep out of trouble.

Clinton Kinsmen pee wees were ousted from WOAA action by Exeter last week, but the young pucksters are still en- gaged in houseleague play and will also have some exhibition games before they head for the annual tournament in Goderich over the Easter vacation. Exeter took the two-game series by a. one-sided 12-$ mar- gin. However, the locals lost by only a 3-1 verdict in Ex- eter and the big spread was the result of a 9-2 win by Ex- eter right here in Clinton. In houseleague play last week the Hawks were the big win- ners as they came through with two victories. They dump- ed the Canadiens by a 4-2 count and came right back with a 4-1 verdict over the flashy Br- uins. The hapless Canadiens also were subjected to two other losses as the Leafs whipped them 4-1 and the Bruins gained a narrow 2-1 verdict over them. This Saturday, the Hawks meet the Leafs in the first game at 9:00 and an hour later, the Bruins tackle the Canad- iens. On Wednesday at 6:30 p.m., the-Bruins meet the Leafs. The local wee wees have a practice scheduled for this Sate eirday at 11t00 a.m. and the a- ster pee wees have a workout scheduled for 6:00 en Monday.
