The visitors edged the tribe 8-7 but not before Mohawks came from behind twice, first to tie the score and then to come with­ in a goal of the round robin leaders before the final hell. Outclassed stanza, the behind 4-1 the second loose with than half a minute. Both Ross Horner and Red Graham, Lake­ side defenders, were in the sin bin when the Mohawks went on the scoring spree. Forest rolled back into a com­ fortable lead before the period was over however. They scored three counters to lead 7-4 at the start of the third. Best In Third Molnvaks outplayed the ners by a 3-1 count in the canto. It wasn’t enough to the tables on the favorites it gave, the crowd plenty to about. Workhorses Doug Smith Ray Richards led the locals' at­ tack with three points each. Smith potted a couple of count­ ers and assisted on another. Richards fired one and set up two more. Frank Anderson fired two tallies. Fred Hewer notched a goal and an assist, and Al Mc­ Gillivray helped on two others. John Anderson, with a and Murray Brintnell, assist, also figured in hawks’ scoring. Hap Rendall and Art each collected a trio of for the winners. Jack Wriglit and Graham notched singles, Three Misconducts Referees Gus Boussey and An­ gus McLean, of Seaforth, called 16 penalties, including three 10- minute misconducts, over the route. Ross Horner, who was in an insulting mood, took two of the heavy penalties while Frank Anderson received the third, Forest playing-coach Red Gra­ ham, who appears to enjoy a vil- ■lian role, took two minor penal­ ties. Three counters were scored while he was cooling his heels. In one of the most crushing body checks seen in this season’s Cyclone hockey, Grajiam caught Frank Anderson dead-on as the speedy centre rounded two othex- Lakeside men. Anderson lay ■prone on the ice for several min­ utes before getting up with as­ sistance. 3-1 in the first boys in blue were near the middle of when they broke thrjse goals in less A Cyclone playoff for the Mac­ Millan trophy may begin next week.

Exeter Mohawks withdrew from the second WOAA “A” round robin last week in protest against the inclusion of Meaford in the Cyclone playdowng. Mohawk club president, W. G. Cochrane, charged that the series, already under way, “means ab­ solutely nothing” and is “fttrictly an .exhibition round” because Meaford is not an "A” club. The local tribe finished in third place in the first round robin and was entitled to enter the .second series. ‘Officials withdrew the club at a meeting in Goderich on Friday night. . • President Cochrane said his executive felt “it was unreason­ able that Meaford should be brought in before the final Cy­ clone “A” playoffs vzere finish­ ed”. He .charged that this was done by the WOAA purely to accomodate Meaford. The second round robin “means absolutely nothing, Cochrane as­ serted, because Meaford is an Intermediate “B” club and will go into OHA “B” playdowns. The elimination round is “strictly an exhibition series”, he said, be­ cause the “A” teams will still have to pick a winner. Two other reasons stated for the withdrawal were financial and lateness of the season. Mr. Cochrane said the 125- mile trip to Meaford would re­ quire players to be away from work the afternoon before the game and since they would not get home until around 4 a.m. the next morning, another half­ day would be sacrificed. The trip would be an excessive financial burden both on the team and the players and since the series appeared to be only “exhibition”, the Mohawk executive felt it not worthwhile. Commenting on the time ele­ ment, Mr. Cochrane said: “We feel the series would run the playoffs much too late in the season. The round will not be over until the middle of March and then’ there are the semi­ final and the final series which will go well into April.” Another consideration move is the loss of three from the club’s roster. _____ Gerry Hill has been transferred from the district, Bob Coates is out with a broken thumb and Ted Elder has been out for seve­ ral months with a broken back. The club has had a successful year financially, Mr. Cochrane said. There will be a slight sur­ plus on the year’s operation. The executive will meet at the close of the season to make plans for the 1954-'55 season. A coach may be hired this spring. The executive -also hopes hold an open meeting with Booster Club members at end of the season. Although the club has with­ drawn from the “A” playdowns it will participate in Cyclone playoffs if they are arranged. Al McGillivray has been named play­ ing-coach for the rest of the season. f ICE CHIPS THi /00 By DOUG SMITH Happy to say we had a very busy week at the arena, starting with the Zurich and Lucan game on Tuesday that drew a record attendance for the year—1,400. No doubt tomorrow night's game with the same two clubs will draw 2.'000. This has been one of the best series this year. All of the games have been close and some very good hockey has been witnessed by the ardent fans. Each team has scored 27 goals. Thursday was a rough night and I think we should have at least tied Forest. Mr. Carr was the lucky man who won the car and along with tions it was a evening.

They dropped a 7-3 deci­ sion in lacklustre fashion to the Rockets. Entirely off their stride and apparently lacking any incentive, the double blqeB let the older Strathroy club outfight, outplay and outscore them. Score First Counter Although the tribe scored the first counter of the game, a Richards-Frank Anderson com­ bination at 39 seconds after the opening whistle, they were never in contention for the game. The Rockets took a 2-1 lead before the first was over, extended their margin to 6-2 in the second. In the third, the clubs battled to a 1-1 tic. Frank Anderson and Bill Mus­ ser counted the last two Mohawk goals. Frank's second period counter was scored from a lying- down position. He had carried the puck into the zone, was dumped, slid across the ice to one side of Rocket netminder, Harvey Jessiman, and made no immediate attempt to get up. Meanwhile Bill Musser fought for the rubber and managed to push it towards the net. Ander­ son, still prone, reached out with his stick to Reflect it under the surprised Jessiman, Doug Brintnell received a well- earned assist on Musser’s count­ er. Brintnell scrambled for the. puck with two Rockets in the I corner, finally cleared it to Musser in front of the centre rapped Deserved Win Despite some of ing plays of the locals, the Strath­ roy crew worked hard enough to deserve the easy win. Stew Cous­ ins potted two, Garvin, Statham, Dodds, Mayes and Walker count­ ed singles for the victors. Only other major incident in in the game was a two-minute scuffle between Bill Musser and Don Fulton. Iloth received five- minute majors and 10 - minute misconducts for the duel.
