Blue-Birds Shove Kincardine to Bot tom With 6 „ 5 Win, For the first time in three years the local O.FtA squad emerged from the dismal depths of the group cellar by virtue of a q-5 victory in overtime at Kincardine, The Bird? should have won easily in the regulation distance as the Northerners were out-played by plenty. Reg. Douglas, in the nets' for the first time this season, did a good job, but it was a good job for Kincardine Sam McGee wasn’t there or it, might have been close to a shut out as Sam generally goes good in the Lakeside town. The game was best described as a decidedly mediocre brand.of hockey. We can’t imagine why a bunch of boys .as potentially good as Kincar dine couldn't put up a better exhibi tion’than they did Monday night. The Blues had them bottled up nearly three-quarters of the time. They were even worse than Wingham used to be in getting out of their own goal zone. Nuff said! Norm, McDonald opened the scor ing by batting in a loose puck but John Cruickshanks got that one back on a drive from the blue-line that Thompson fanned on. Pickard and N. McDonald broke away from a Wing ham power drive, the former scoring. Just before the period ended Somers sent a pass up to Rae at the far blue- line and Murray easily, scored. The Birds were all over the home sters in the second session and went two up. Elliott got the first, slapping in his own rebound and Murray Rae taking a pass' from Brown for the other. This one was slightly offside but the Birds’ let it go. Funny! Kincardine tied it up in the third on a pair of fairly soft goals, the first by Pickard from the lef£ boards going between Doug, and the post. Kincardine then got their off-side goal I when Capstick let loose a floater from outside the blue-line with Bob. Thompson almost in the crease. The big Scot never saw it till it* hit the twine. Elliott and Cruickshanks com bined to put .the” -Huronites ahead again with only a few minutes to go, Ted’s back-hand shot skidding under Windy Thompson for a goal. Blues forgot to protect their lead However and Pickard and Bob. Thompson broke away with only a defense plaver .to beat with the usualiresult that the former Chesley boy scored. * With the overtime period fast draw ing to a close Murray Rae gave Clark a nice pass and Doug, rounded the defense and drove home the winning goal. The game was a very tame af fair, only two penalties being handed out, although one Kincardine boy was a little conspicuous by carrying his stick like a flag-bearer in a 12th of July parade all nijjht. This boy should break off this habit immediately as otherwise he is a pretty fair player. * * * Out Of The Cellar! Wingham—Goal, Douglas; 1. def., R. Rae; r. def., Cruickshanks; centre, M.
