(Continued From Rage One) on Crediton with a four man rush but their play failed tp click. Before the period was very old Bob VZolt’e opened the scoring for Crediton on a pass from Wally Fahrner. The line of the Fahrner Brothers and B. Wolfe was particularly effective. Crediton collected their second goal early in the second! frame. While scrimmaging in front of the Hensall net, Baynham and Manns slashed at the puck together and deflected it be­ hind the surprised goalie. Hensall players began to get organized and Crediton was ♦ bothered with their continual ganging attacks. Zwicker stopped a Hensall rush sprawling on the ice and checking the attack. Tay­ lor and H. W’olfe were penalized one after the other and Hensall played every man up to bag their first goal. Brock finally managerd to whip the puck between the posts. The third period saw Hensall con­ tinually ganging on the Crediton squad trying desperately to get the equalizer. They were rewarded when Little grabbed the loose puck and his shot from the blue line had Smith beaten all the way. Crediton nearly scored when A. Fahrner on a nice pass missed the corner of the net. Hensall took the lead when Brown flipped the puck behind Smith on a passout from Nicholson. Brock G. Fassmore and Tudor combined up the ice together and G. Passmore shot the puck into the net from a pass from his team-mates. The line-ups: "w Hensall; Goal, J. Tudor; defense, Brown, Manns; centre, M. Tudor; wings, Hudson, Brock; subs., Little, K.
