FLYERS who have carried right on and won the RCAF TRAINING COMMAND' hockey champion- ship. We took in the two -genie series in Lucan and thought that Centralia did have a better balanced, team than MacDonald, Manitoba. This may come as a Surprise to Vide of you but although most of the scoring punch throughout the season was tied up in two or three players, a lot of hard work was done by players whose names never have appeared in the scoring summary. Without them, the championship could not have been won, It talcs all types of players to form a • winner. The front -running line of CHUCK PARENT, BILL FRANKLIN and BILL McLAUGHLIN was red hot for this series and figured ift a lot of goals. The second line, consisting of DON PROFITT, ED HUGHES and. JACK DONALD, who were more or less at first just out, there to give the first trio a breather, turned out to be one of W/C Trueinner's bestchecking units as well as Potential scorers, We feel that coach Truem- ,, ner got full mileage out of his whole club which possessed a well -scattered assortment of hockey players. GIL GEEME must have given his coach about 60 miles to the gallon in playoff game 8 against CLIN- TON, AYLMER, ST. JOHNS and MacDonald, because when it looked as though everyone else was out re- fueling, steady GIL just kept booting out the shots. It was too bad the ice wasn't the best for the first period of the opening game as HAROLD "RIB- BY" RiBSON forgot until the second to tell 41 cigar smokers to tilt their stogies away from the ice. After the fans did this, the ice did get better, didn't it, HAROLD? Seriously though, "Old Pro" MOE GOBEIL, di reetink plays from his blueline position, was another one of the main reasons why it ended up in such a good year for coach TRUEMNER and his athletes.
