Centralia Flyers proved they
had depth in strength Tuesday
night by ousting Milverton
Royals 6-4 without the services
of their scoring star Randy
Ellis or Rill Todd, regular de
fenceman. Both were out with
injuries.
The Flyers took the best-of-
seven series in four straight
games after the two teams had
deadlocked i n the opener. Al
though most of the games were
close, Centralia showed a slight
advantage both on

School Cagers Lose Title Bid
In Thrilling Overtime Contest
By JACK BROWN
Special To The Thncs-Advocatc
No team ever lost a tougher
basketball game than the S.H.D.-
I-I.S. quintet did at Toronto on
Saturday in the Ontario Second
ary School “B” championship
series. The local team was edged
out, 55-53 in overtime, in the
semi-finals of the annual event,
by a hard-driving crew from
Pembroke.
The Pembroke squad, featur
ing a fast-break and some deadly
shooting at times, broke into the
scoring column seconds after the
first whistle, and held a lead
throughout the entire first quar
ter. At the end of the first, the
eastern Ontario “B” champs were
leading 15-12. At
sparked by O’Brien’s six points,
South Huron was in front, 26-
25.
By the time the three-quarter
mark
were
scored 12 more points in the
last canto to wind up in a regu
lation time stalemate.
In 4.116 three-minute overtime
period, the local crew, with
Middleton, O’Brien, Hicks, Moir
and Batten leading the thrust,
jumped into a one-point lead
early, on a foul shot by Middle
ton. Pembroke then picked up
two points on foul shots, to go
one up, only to have Middleton
again put the South Huron crew
in the van with a beautiful hoop
from a rebound.
Again the lead switched as
the half,
rolled around, the teams
tied at 35-35 and each
Pembroke fired another pair of
foul shots to go ahead 51-50.
Tie And Tie Again
With 50 seconds remaining in
the three-minute overtime period,
Armstrong, of Pembroke, fouled
Hicks, and the Exeter boy tied
the game up again at 51-51.
Seconds later ^Pembroke again
went into the lead with another
pair of foul shots, only to have
Hicks tie it again with a one-
handed set shot from far out. It
looked then as if another over
time period would he scheduled,
until Pembroke’s Moe Wesanko
killed the Exeter boys with a
looping set shot less than ten
seconds away from the final
whistle.
By this time the South Huron
team could get the ball out, up
to the Pembroke end of the floor,
and make any kind of play with
it, the game was over.
Middleton, who placed himself
into exhaustion, was the star of
the Exeter team, potting six
baskets and four foul shots for
16 points. .Close behind him was
O’Brien with 12 points on five
baskets and two foul shots. J.
Sturgis and Hicks followed with
eight each. Moir had seven, and
Yungblut two.
Albert College, of Belleville,
were- the winners of the class
“B” tournament. In the semi
finals, the whipped South Porcu
pine 42-28, then belted Pem
broke 5 3-27 to take the honors.
The locals, matched with
South Porcupine in the “B” con
solation series, slipped badly, to
go down to defeat 41-.2. Bob
Mitchell of Porcupine went wild
for 20 points in that game, while
O’Brien, Moir and Hicks led the
South Huron team.
But it was the wild overtime
thriller between the Exeter and
Pembroke teams in, the after
noon that captured the crowd’s
imagination. Stacked up against
the “A” class teams who were
slated to show more class and
fight, the smaller school teams
held up well and had the side
liners talking about the tight tilt
long after it was over.
The lineups:
EXETER (53): O'Brien (12),
Hicks OS), Moir (7), Yungblut (2),
Sturgis (S), Middleton (16), Batten,
Cudmore, Adkins, Fletcher, McCurdy.
PEMBROKE (55): Wesanko (16),
Mill (9), Young (15), Miller (11),
Horricks (2), Campbell, Armstrong
(2), Biederman, Ziegel, Bombay.Officials: R. Harvey, F. Sgambati, Toronto.
