11A1S5 DOING WHAT COMES NATURALLY
Stanley Cup fever is at its peak. Once again
Ws the Les Canadiens and Boston Bruins in the
!!Honey series. The Beantowners have been
bridesmaids to the Habitants for so many nears that
many are beginning to wonder if they'll ever play
the main role in the ceremnony.
Glancing back over the clubs past perform-
ances we find the Habs have racked up seven con-
secutive cup wins. Most of you probably figure that
seven times is about six too many for one club to be
world champs. 'We agree with you 100 per cent but
what can you do? Les Canadiens have undoubtedly
become the New York Yankees of hockey. When the
money is there. it's just a formality'
e
Habs
ri
As we `.lid last year, late re picking th
to walk off with a five -game series. The :tlontrealers
started off on the right foot with a 2-1 victory in
the opener.
"Toe" Blake's big payoff in this series will
be his atomic power play which produced the win.
Ding goal in the first game-. With Machell grimly
squinting fi,oni the penalty box, the Canucls really
applied the pressure and what happened? Boston
didn't get the puck out of their end of the rink
once after the initial faceoff and, as on so many
previous Montreal power plays throughout the year,
one could 'easily see it was just a matter of Minae
before someone would score.
The Bostonians put up a terrific show with
their hard-hitting body contact game but this failed
to slow up the league champs. We wonder just how
long Schmidt`s players can withstand the heavy body
treatment they are trying to pour into the Canucks.
Maurice Richard, who started last year's series
Off by busting through for four big goals had to
settle for an assist in this '58 opener but tl'e away
his line hounds the Boston net, he'll undoubtedly
be heard from in the goal scoring department before
the final chapter is written.
We hope Milt Schmidt snakes us eat our words
on our five -game prediction but we'11 bet Don Sim-
mons starts to sweat every time he sees Geoffrion,
Beliveau, Harvey, the "Rocket" and Dickie Moore
line up in front of him on that power play!

LEPRECHAUNS STILL IN HIGH GEAR
Our congratulations to Bill "Polly" Smith,
coach of Lucan Leprechauns. on winning the "D"
series championship at the Young Canada Week
hockey tournament this week, The club ran up a
four game winning streak in their victory march.
Harold "Bibby.. Iiibson, who tells us he is the man-
ager of the club and all Smitty did was teach the
boys how to play hockey, says they'll be back up
in Goderich Saturday afternoon to challenge the
"C" champs and then will play the same night
against Toronto for the grand championship: How's
that for confidence?
Because we all can't be. winners, we'd like to
pass along a pat on the back to the other district
teams who made the journey northward and came
out on the short end, It takes good sports to win
title but it always takes a little more effort to
walk away smiling after suffering defeat.

Lttcan, Leprechauns, pride -of
the Irish settlement to the
south, -captured the first cha u-
pionslilp of the annual Young
Canada Week pee wee hockey
tournament at Goderichthis
week wticn Roger. Black fired t
a tie•breaking goal with only 40
seponds left to play in regulation
time to edge.out Mildmay's Lit-
tle Monarchs 5.4 for the `"D"
title,
ltiildmay's Robin Morley, who
was nicked by officials for a
two -minute interference penalty,
watched helplessly from the
penalty box while Black sank his I
second goal of the period to
give his club the Pfrimmer
Brothers trophy,
Defencentan Gary Sevington
was also a big cog in the title
c an
• e he produced tivdu
d as
p
im-
portant pair of markers in the!
first half of the second period.
Winger Don Coughlin, who
looked sharp throughout the four•
game series, sank the other Lu-
can counter at 10:30 of the ini-
tial period,
Gary Weiler with two and Don
Liesememer with. a single sup-
plied the Mildmay argument,
Bill. Dickinson scored the first
goal of the game at e;40 for
Mildmay.
It was a. see -saw battle all the
way and without a little of that
Irish luck and the steady goal;'
tending of Eddy Harrigan, it's
doubtful if Coach Bill Smith It
would have seen his -club take it
alt,
The line of Boger Black, Don
Coughlin and Larry Lewis along •
with defence stalwarts Gary 1
Revington and Ward llodgtns
played major rolls m the Irish'
'our --ante sweep.
Previous to the Mildmay vie -
tory, Lucan rolled up a 3-0 shut-
out over Lucknow and came from
behind in each contest to nip
Ebenezer 4.3 and the Six Na-
tions 5.3.
l.e,,recheuns Welcomed Nome
The Leprechauns, who only a
short time ago appeared on the
Ed Sullivan Show and were es-
costed around New York city
by the Montreal Canadiens of
the National Hockey League,
received a rousing home coming
from some 300 fans.
The hockey club rode through
the streets on the Lucan fire
truck which was followed by
nearly 30 cars. St. Patrick's
Church, who was holding its an-
nual At Home in the Lucan
arena, rolled out rounds of ap-
plause and cheers for the little
Leprechauns when they arrived
at the rink.

5-1victory over Exeter, The
Ridgetown players, who were
more mature than the Exeter
lads, had little trouble picking
up the win.
I Ted Goldhawk was the big gun
I for the winners' as he fired three
'of ttie five goals. In scoring his
third, the crafty, free -wheeling
winger slid head first into the
Exeter net and received a gash
!on the back of the ear and neck
that required 10 stitches to close.
