The Eagles played a much improv ed game against Harriston Friday night when they sent them home on the short end of a 4-1 score. The local club well deserved this win as they skated faster and passed better than in any game this season, Zu lauf was in the nets for the local birds and lie gave a real fine exhibi tion of goal tending, the only goal to beat him was a perfect shot from well in. Coach Harry Towne used two com plete change of players throughout the game. The starting line up was Cruickshank and Miller oh the de fence, Ted Elliott at centre with Sturdy and Brown on the wings. The other set up was Mitchell and Bate son on. defence, Patterson centre flanked by Baker and King. It was an experiment and it worked OK, adding a lot of Ispeed to the defence and the two forward lines worked well. The game had hardly started (10 seconds) when .Brown gave the fans a chance to cheer as he banged one by Gibson. It was a combination play that carried the puck right to the goal mouth. The lines were changed and the play continued fast, then Bateson was sent off for trip ping. Harriston pressed hard but the Eagles held them off. About half way through the period Foster tied it up on a close in shot that Zulauf had no chance on. Thirty seconds later Patterson put the locals' one up when he took a pass from Baker. The balance of the period was faster but there was no more scoring. The second period started off with both teams turning on the gas. Prit chard was penalized but Harriston put up a strong defence and held the Eagles off. Shortly after Flarriston were again short a man when Gregor was banished for two minutes but the Birds failed to dent the twine. With about five minutes to go Pat terson and Foster collided, both'fell heavily, Patterson received a nasty gash above the eye* as he hit the ice. After getting it sewed jtp he returned to the game for the third period. Bateson got the only goal of this per iod with about 3 minutes to go on an end to end rush. Bateson and Greg or had a little feud arfcl were given time to cool off. Elliott followed and the period ended with the three of them in the penalty box. With a man advantage Harriston sure put on the pressure but could not put one behind Zulauf.'4 Harriston pressed with the advan tage of man power at the start of the third period but had no results. There was but one goal in this period also, and it was a great solo effort by El- lio.tt. He and Cruickshanks sped down together, Ted faked a pass and went right round the defence to place pne behind Gibson on a pretty shot. Both teams tried hard but, could not score. Goalies on both sides made good stops and the fans were kept on their toes. Pritchard was penal ized an<J Wingham awarded a penal ty shot. Ted Elliott took it but Gib son blocked his shot.
