' The Presbyterian team knocked
off Souths Kinloss in the 2nd game),
of the Church League playoffs, last.
7 Wednesday night by .a score of 6‘ to
5, giving each team a victory and
, making a third g$me necessary to
decide the winner of the Joynt
Trophy.
Trailing by a score of 4 to 0 go
ing into the 3rd period, S. K. ran in
four goals to rtie the score in a thrill
ing finish to a game that was feat
ured by plenty of scoring and as
many penalties.
Strengthened by Bob Thompson,
playing his first hockey game on
'Lucknow ict, the Presbyterian jjteam
broke into the Iscore sheet early in
the first frame when Bob picked up
a rebound and poked it in behind
Alex McIntosh. Jack Fisher got goal
number two on a face off and put
, his, team 3 up before the period end-
ed when Jack took CharlieJewitfs"
pass out from behind^ the het to bang
, it in. Jack Fisher, Howard Agnew
and Charlie Jewitt drew penalties.
The lone goal of the 2nd period
came from Charlie Jewitt’s.atick on
a pass from 1‘Puhch” “MacDonald
’ for a nice play. This period saw the
. . penalty box almost continually in
habited as Referee McCoy thumbed
/ off Jack Fisher, Clyde Reid, Morgan
. Henderson,. phariie Jewitt, Leonard
——- -MacDonald—and—Andy—Orr, while
Jim Stewart and Bob Thompson
: drew majors as tempers "flared. Jim
took a poke at Jack Fisher , and Bob
'pushed him into the corner but a
threatened outbreak was quickly
quelled. '
Scoring gave place; to penalties in
the 3rd frame, as S. K. broke out in
a scoring rash and ran in four goal?
in succession to knot the count. Bill
JeWdtt^bened up oh a pass out from
Reiflffctlonnell. Andy Orr got num
ber. Itv^o/ Bill Jewitt number three
, and on. a neat effort Andy Orr got
the tying goal.
^'With S. K. playing 4 men up, Bill
Ilendersoh broke alone, and rounding
brother. Morgan on-defense, coasted
in giving McIntosh no" chance. Jack
Fisher pulled a similar play to score
the goal that meant victory/ Andy.

COMPLETION OF SERIES
It looks as if mild weather has
put an end to hockey, activities for
the season, withbut the third' and de-
ciding game in. the Church League
playoffs, having , been played* So.uth
Kinldss and the Presbyterian team
have each one a game And .according
to the regulations the trophy winner,
is determined by a best two-out-of-
. three games series. However the ex-
• cutive has pointed out that in case
' a third gaihe cannot be played, total
goals on the rcund will coun>* In
this case South Kihloss would win
the cup by a score of 11 to 8. The
Executive has made no official an
nouncement in this regard however,
pending the possibility of a suitable
ice surface yet being available,
which, with a continuance of mild
weather seems nOw definitely out of
the question.
! The fact, that Wingham hockey
1 team did not win A single game in
two years of O.JI.A. competition, has
not discouraged the Club, . for on
Friday night a meeting was held to
r wind up the year’s business and
elect officers and lay .plans for next
winter, when Wingham hopes to
place a strong team in the group.
Qhesley won the W.O.H.A, Free
Press trophy by ousting Kitchener;
Koffmans. 12 tdty on the round.
In a thrilling 3-game series, New
Hamburg coped the junior .crown
from Walkerton, when they took
the 3rd game by “a score of 3 to 2
in overtime. ~ •
"Toar” the New Hamburger’s 270-
nound defenceman, who stood out
'ike a sore thumb throughout the
series, banged in the winning goal. ,

Durham, regarded as through for
the season, following a 7 to 2 lick
ing in Acton| pulled the season’s
biggest reverse in handing Acton a 7
to i set back in the second gairje
and won the round 9 to 8.
-—Durham is now waiting ,to enter
the .finals for the Ontario “B” cham
pionship; ' .
It was Acton’s first loss in 21
garnet and it must have been a
heart-bteaker. / . ‘ —

was left in the rink, the local juven
