After a weekend trip to Napanee, the Jets find themselves deadloeked with the Napanee Comets at two games apiece in the Ontario Hockey Association Intermediate "E" final, Due to. a L-I loss of the toss of the coin, the fifth game of the best-of-seven series will be played back in Napanee Friday night at nine o'clock. The sixth game is slated for the Huron Park arena, Sunday afternoon with starting time set for two o'clock. If a seventh game is necessary it wilt be back Napanee, Friday, May 1, also at nine o'clock. In Napanee over the weekend, the pattern set at Huron Park a week earlier was repeated with the Jets taking the Saturday game and the Comets bouncing back to take the Sunday afternoon contest. The Lucan-Ilderton boys were victorious by a spore of 4-2 in the .first of the two recent games while Napanee won by a 6-3 score in the 'Sunday contest. Winning away from home is not new to the Jets and they must gain at least one victory in Napanee if they wish to fulfill their year-long ambition of winning an Ontario crown. In the current year playoff competition, the 1.4 club has gained half of their victories in games played on foreign rinks. PENALTIES GALORE Sunday's game in Napanee, won by the Comets by a score of 6.3 was marred by a rash of penalties, especially in the third period when the penalty box was filled to capacity most of the time. After losing to the speedy Jets, Saturday night, the Comets changed their tactics for Sunday's game and used "the lumber" in order to slow down the visitors. RESTING BEFORE THE GAME — Before Sunday's game in Napanee some of the Lucan-Ilderton Jets went for a stroll and posed for a picture on a rail fence. From the left, they are, Jamie Robb, Don Henderson, Steve Proctor, Steve Storey, Ron Cauduro, Jack Nairn and Doug Galloway. T-A photo IT WAS A BUSY SPOT — The penalty box was one of the busiest spots in the Napanee arena, Sunday afternoon. The picture above was taken from the press box late in the third period with Doug Galloway (7) of the Jets shown along with Jack Brady (6), Jack Smith (10), Rick Gerow and John Hartwick. At Galloway's right is Jet penalty time-keeper Ivan Hearn.

Page 6 Times-Advocate, April 23, 1970 FOR ALL GOOD SPORTS By Ross. Haugh, Poor show The current hockey season will soon be over and it can't end too soon for us if we have to witness many of the kind of games like the one played in Napanee Sunday afternoon. Before we carry any further we will report that the Lucan-Ilderton Jets and Napanee Comets split the two weekend games and the series is all tied up at two games apiece. Sunday's game won by Napanee by a score of 6-3 produced the weirdest brand of hockey we have ever witnessed, While being a loyal Jet supporter this statement is not "sour grapes" because of the Lucan-I lderton loss. After losing 4-2 to the high flying Jets Saturday night in a fairly wide open game, the Napanee club came out Sunday afternoon with 'mayhem' on their minds. The amount of high sticking, spearing and butt-ending was almost unbelievable. While the Comets were caught for 18 penalties, mostly for highsticking, it would have taken a referee with eyes back and front to catch all the infractions. The Durham Huskies who were in the local group finals against the Jets are known to play hard, rough, aggressive hockey but a Durham-Lucan game would be classed as a "Sunday School picnic" compared to Sunday afternoon's farce. The fifth game of the series is slated for the Napanee arena, Friday night at nine with the sixth contest set for the Huron Park arena, Sunday afternoon at two o'clock. We hope the two clubs stick strictly to hockey in the remaining games giving the fans a chance to see a good brand of puck chasing. While at the Saturday night game we were introduced to Doug Alkenbrack who is the federal member of parliament for Frontenac-Lennox-Addington and a good friend of Huron MP Bob McKinley. Records Before Sunday's game at Napanee, one of the fans showed us a program of the Greensboro Generals of the Eastern league of 1966. Present Lucan-Ilderton Jet playing coach Jack Nairn was a member of the Greensboro club at that time. The book listed Nairn as holding the league record for scoring the fastest two goals in history. Jack scored at 9.14 and 9.22 of the second period against Knoxville on December 29, 1963. Another area hockeyist, Ron Muir of Seaforth holds two records in the same league. Muir scored three goals in six minutes and nineteen seconds and also holds the mark for the fastest goal, five seconds. Fish Spawning Before Saturday night's game at Napanee we were told if we wanted to see something exciting we should drop down to the Napanee River, Sunday morning. Several different persons said there were thousands of pickerel coming up the river near the waterfall to spawn. As can be expected when we arrived Sunday morning the fish were missing by the same number of thousands. Shortly before noon along with Keith and Bobbie Scarborough, Jack Nairn and Jim Bender we walked along the bank and were able to see a dozen or so pickerel. During the past week, game wardens of the Ontario Department of Lands and Forests have been keeping an around-the-clock eye on the spawning. Apparently each night around eight o'clock department officials have been netting and tagging a large number of pickerel. The game warden, on duty Sunday morning told us he tagged one pickerel last week that tipped the scales at seventeen pounds. We tried our best to have the game warden net us a fish or two for picture purposes but after checking with his superiors was unable to bend regulations. He asked us to come back at eight o'clock Sunday night when they would be tagging but by that time we were heading home again. Our last try at seeing more fish came right after the Sunday game. While the players were dressing, Nancy Scarborough drove us back to the river and again we only saw a few pickerel. The game warden estimated one fish we were able to see at about ten pounds. Apparently spawning lasts for about ten days and is coming to a close. Coaching Clinic We received a bulletin from the Western Ontario Athletic Association this week concerning a baseball coaches' clinic that is being held at the Goderich arena, this Sunday at one o'clock in the afternoon. There is no charge for the clinic and anyone is welcome to attend. Further to this, umpire clinics are also scheduled in various other communities. New rules this year now make it compulsory for umpires to attend if they wish to be recommended for an OBA card, Actual dates of the umpire clinics will be announced in further bulletins. Another split for Jets in OHA finals to give his club a 2-0 lead. Bob Dickson cut the Napanee deficit to a single goal at 17,05 but defenceman Don Urbshott got that one right back by scoring on a low, hard drive from the blue line. Dusty Aldis and Dave Webster drew assists on the play. Nairn scored again near the fourteen minute mark of the second period to complete his club's scoring for the night. Doug Galloway started the play, Only one goal came in the third period and that was fired by Dave Fox of Napanee before six minutes had elapsed. Referee Torn Brown of Toronto called a total of thirteen penalties with eight going to the home club, Comets. Included were fighting majors to Bob Brown of the Comets and Jacques Cousineau of Lucan-Ilderton, EXETER LADIES' BOWLING BANQUET See Us For NEW and USED VARMINT RIFLES From .22 Calibre Up Triebner's Gun Shop 320 Huron St West EXETER ONT, Rescheduled To Wednesday, May 13 6:30 P.M. EXETER LEGION HALL Sixth game at Huron Park, Sunday Napanee goalie Dave Gavel, a star in every game of the series so far was at his best in the first half of the opening period when he repelled numerous Jet shots that were headed for the scoring mark. Jim Stinson, the highest flying Comet in Sunday's game started his team off on the right foot at the 6.14 mark of the opening session completing a three-way passing effort with Brian Stinson and Bob Brown. In the last three minutes of the first frame, two more successful passing combinations involving three Comets put the home team into a commanding three goal lead. Brian Stinson notched the first of the two goals with brother Jim and Rick Gerow assisting while Jack Smith fired the other shot past Wayne Parkinson in the Lucan-Ilderton net with Ron Vanalstine and Earl Smith drawing assists. Jim Stinson was back with his second goal of the afternoon early in the second period, again on a three-way passing effort. This time Brian Stinson and Jack Brady provided the passing help. Keith Scarborough took over in goal for the Jets to start the second period and finished the game. A bang-bang passing play at 9.43 of the second put the Jets on the score sheet for the first time. Dave Webster carried the puck most of the way up the ice, sent a pass over to Jim Bender who in turn sent a quick pass in front of the net and Jacques Cousineau was johnny-on- the-spot to flip the puck into the Napanee net. The second Lucan-Ilderton goal came on a power play six minutes later with Bob Brown sitting out a cross checking penalty. Rick Bradford fired the shot a low drive from the point, the play was set up by Jamie Robb and playing coach Jack Nairn. Early in the third, Rick Gerow, son of Napanee coach Walt Gerow pretty well ensured the win for his club by scoring on a beautiful solo effort and a hard whistling shot that eluded Scarborough. Jim Bender finalized the Jet scoring at 7.46 of the third period as he was put in front of the net on a clearing pass from Jamie Robb. Bob Dickson notched the last Napanee goal with less than two minutes to go in the game. During the rough contest, the Comets drew eighteen penalties with the Jets drawing down thirteen. Included were fighting majors to Don Urbshott and Jamie Robb of the Jets and Bob Brown and John Hartwick of the Comets. DOMINATE FIRST In Saturday's game, the Jets came out with the same style of play as they did in the first game of the series on home ice a week earlier. They dominated the first period completely, taking a 3-1 lead to the dressing room for the first rest session. The first goal of the game came from the stick of Jacques Cousineau as he took a pass from Jim Bender at 3.47 and parked the puck behind Dave Gavel in the Napanee net. Numerous other scoring chances were missed by the L-I club in the early moments of play. Jamie Robb hit the cross bar just past the seventh minute of play with Bob Brown of the Comets serving the first of five penalties he picked up during the exciting sixty minutes of action. It took the Napanee club more than ten minutes to get their first shot on Jet goalie Wayne Parkinson. At 11.37 playing coach Jack Nairn combined with line-mates Steve Storey and Doug Galloway
