In the second ' game, the Canadians defeated the Leafs by a 4-1 score, with Jim Fleming getting all four Canadian goals. Paul Stephen- son scored the Leafs single tally. Wednesday night at the Lon- don, Raceway in the eighth race, Arctic John owned by . Larry Dale of Seaforth and driven by Clarence O'Neil was second.

Feagan with Gerry unbeaten skein to 10 games as they downed the Tavistock Braves 5-3 last Thursday night and thumped the Mitchell Hawks 6.4 last Sunday night. On Sunday night before a crowd of over 400 fans, the Mustangs tramped the Mitchell Hawks in st game that was earlier billed in the Seaforth paper by the Mitchell Hawks amateur reporter Don Nicholson as a battle between the "Seaforth Juniors" and the Mitchell Hawks, Nicholson, a Seaforth native, is one of Mitchell's top scorers and wrote' in the Seaforth Expositor on November 15 im- plying that the Clinton team would cease to function if it were not for the large number of Seaforth boys playing on it, This is quite incorrect, as there would still be enough boys to play, but maybe at not quite as high a calibre of play as exists now, Nicholson also falsely quotes the Clinton management in his article almost as if he were ex- pressing the Mitchell team's feelings over the Seaforth boys playing in Clinton instead of in Mitchell team's feelings over Roebuck driving. The mile was in 2:13.3 and the payoff was $9.20. In the tenth race, Miss Belle Bars owned by Fred Fowler of Londesboro was third with Frank MacDonald driving, Dillion Song owned by George Elliott of Clinton, was third last Sunday in a $9,200 stake race at Mohawk.

Right from the opening face :off, Mitchell's band of warriors marched out and did everything from chop up the boys to taking cheap shots at them, with their main victims being the Lane brothers, who Mitchell claim to be their own., Even former Mustang Tom Murray of the Hawks displayed a case of "sow' grapes" by roughing up a couple of Clinton players. Murray plays for the Hawks without a release from Clinton and thus far, Lambeth is the only team to protect it. Before the first period was over, Rick O'Donnel and Don Nicholson scored for the Hawks with Paul Johnson and Dave McClure countering for the home team, making it 2-2 going into the second frame, In the second period Dave McClure scored his second goal of the game at 10:29 with Nicholson tying it up one minute later, 'Clinton scored again to make it 4-3 with the second period ending on a goal by Gord Carnochan. Dave McClure got his hat trick in the third period when he scored at 1:33, making it 5-3 for Clinton. At 10:09, Mitchell closed the gap to 5-4 on a goal by Kenton Eghoetz. Brian Lane of Clinton put the game on ice when he scored a short handed goal with a lit- tle over two minutes remaining to make the final score 6-4 for Clinton.
