BY ARM SEXTET Wingham Mohawks never did catch up with Arthur, in the closely-fought game at Wingham arena on Saturday night, but it wasn’t from lack of try- mg. And the 7-6 score in Arthur’s favor wasn’t a very fair indication of how the play was going. In the first frame McDougall open­ ed the scoring for Arthur with an un­ assisted ^counter at 7.44 and Ternan got one from Elliott less than a min­ ute later to put the visitors two up before the locals even got organized. Hilbert snapped back with a tally shortly after and Murray Stainton notched one on a pass from Neil Stainton and Lockridge to put the locals even. Bob Marshal finished up the scoring for Arthur, leaving the visitors up 3-2 at the end, of the first. In the second period things were about even, with both teams ringing up two conuters apiece. Ritter and Murray Stainton did the honors for Wingham and McDougall and Ternan for Arthur. In the final stanza action opened up as both teams put forward an extra effort. Bell notched one for Arthur at the outset of the period and Neil Stainton countered with a tally at 2.10. With two Mohawk playefs in the sin bin at one time, it looked as if Arthur might widen their lead but the locals fbught savagely and man­ aged to Stave off disaster. In the dying minutes of the game they lifted Sangster from the het, but the six players oh the ide seemed to get in each other’s way, and they were urt- able to tie up the score. - WINGHAM—Goal, Sangster; de­ fence, Fry, Sims; centre, Murray Stainton; Wings, Neil Stainton, Morris Stainton; subs, Lockridge, Crewson, Ritter, Taylor, Lloyd, Gertie, Hilbert.
