The Pontiacs moved into sol? possession of second place this wepk with their 8-0 shellacking of Ilderton. Goderich hasn’t lost a tilt since Lucan Irish defeated the team in its first game of the season. Third Straight Zurich Flyers posted a 4-2 vic­ tory oyer Strathroy Rockets Sat­ urday night to chalk up their third straight win. Like Gode­ rich, the Flyers haven’t dropped a game since they lost to Forest in their first contest of the sea­ son. Although Zurich is in fourth place as of Wednesday morning, the team lias the best percentage of wins and losses except for Forest and Goderich. The Lakesides continued their winning ways Tuesday night by drubbing the lowly Byron sextet 9-2. Split Series Lucan Irish and Hensall Finks are tied in third spot with four wins each. These two clubs split a home and home series this week, Hensall winning 10-3 on Lucan ice, the Irish 9-6 victors on Finks’ rink Tuesday.

Witmer fafFaBFa8Fa«Fa»a«Fa«Fa ft Cheer up, Mohawk fans! Rein­ forcements are being called up and the team’s improving. Barry Doak, former Goderich defenseman who comes to town from Lethbridge, will be strength­ ening the defense Friday night against Strathroy Rockets. And there’ll probably be one, and maybe two, new attackers in the Mohawk blues. The call for help blared forth from the Mohawks executive af­ ter Forest Lakesides splintered the locals Friday night,. Mohawks were wounded with­ out the services of Ted Elder, leftwinger who broke two bones in his back during a practice on Thursday nigjit. This, coupled witli a sagging forward attack and only three steady, defence­ men, forced the mentors to ring Mr. Bell’s instrument for help. Doak was already in town be­ fore Friday night ‘but didn’t play because he wasn’t in shape. He saw his first Cyclone contest Wednesday night in Strathroy. Wlrat the new forward strength will be or where it will come from isn’t known now but the officials are trying to get an at­ tacker who can blink those red lights. The addition will bolster the second line to replace Elder. Two-Period Contest 'Mohawks put up a two-period contest against the undefeated Forest crew but the Lakesides ■ went wild in the other stanza. The adding machine gave the final total as 14-4, It was one of those nights for Mohawks. They took tough breaks, got disorganized and' generally fell apart. On the other hand, the league’s top team flew under full steam and the engine worked without a miss. They capitalized on almost all breaks and made hardly a mistake. In the first and third periods it was a 6-3 contest, but in the middle stanza it was an 8-1 scrub match. Climax of the Forest roundup came early in the second when Jack Wright, Hap Randall and Bill Hick fired three goals in less than 25 seconds! Mohawks began to warm up in the last half of the third. The tribe poured in three goals to match. Forest’s contribution dur­ ing that time. Hick racked up five goal- and two assist-points over the night. Wright notched three and tw'o with Stan Ulrich getting three and one. Sharpshooter George Shaw pot­ ted two blueline drives for the Mohawks. John Anderson, Frank Anderson picked up Period 10-1. Win. Hensall came through with an easy 10-3 victory Friday night when the Irish were without the services of two Revington hoys. The Fjnks took a 3-0 first per­ iod lead and although Lucan ral­ lied to score two in the second. Hensall sunk six in the third to clinch the victory, Broom counted three for the winners with Becker getting two.
