The Wingham Advance-Times, 1942-01-22, Page 4INDIANS MAKE IT FIVE IN A ROW On Heavy Ice With'Feeling Running High The Indians Take Hanover Transports 12 - 6 The game on Monday night, with the Hanover Transports packed every, thing into 'the hour of play that could possibly happen, some good hockey, many sly digs, fights, The condition of the ice may have had something to do with the frayed nerves of the play- erS. It was very heavy and it was almost impossible at times to carry the puck. Wingham was awarded a penalty 'shot in the last period and Nichol *was given the try. He batte,d the 'puck forward to get a start but the puck stuck on the ice and he failed to get his shot away. This gives one a good idea how very sticky the ice was. The playerst many times instead of carrying the puck in the usual man- ner had to, bat the old boot heel, The score was 12-6 and we believe it was a fair indication•of the teams. The Indians won in Hanover 10-3. When the bell closed the first period each team had notched a goal and the play up to that point was very even although the Indians had more scor- ing chances. The lone tally in this session was a pecOliar one. Small shot from well out and O'Brien made the stop but could not locate the puck which was lying in front of the net. Danny Procter flashed in and pushed it into the net. There were four pen- alties.- In less than four minutes of the, second period Wingham scored two, but before the 'period was 'half way gone the game was all tied up. Nichol put the home club on .top at three quarter mark on a nice effort. There was plenty of excitement in this stanza. 'The period was half gone but one could sense that the feeling of the players was rising. Then it broke out. Ronalds and Proctor had a tiff and were banished. When they arrived at the penalty box a fight took place and this was ' _carried on inside the box and it was with some difficulty that Danny was pacified. It took some of the players and the police to settle things down. The fans gathering around the penalty box and swarming onto the ice did not help much, in fact for a time it appeared there might be a general mix up. Proctor was giv- en 5 minutes for his part in the fracas but Ronalds got off with the usual two minutes. Both goalies were slight- ly injured in this period but continued almost at once. With one goal margin the Indians went to town in the last period and in less than two minutes Cordick and Greer scored. With a three goal lead it looked well for the Indians but Hanover always trying came across with a score at the three minute mark. The Indians were not to be denied however and they slapped in six goals before the Transports could park an- other behind Heaslip. The last two goals of the period went to the visitors both in the last three minutes of play, which made the final tally 12-6. The fun was not over however. As the players left the ice fighting again took place and the fans were milling around. It has been said that the fe- male species is more deadly tlian the male and this was illustrated by a Hanover girl that used a broom with telling effect from the sideboards. The police after a 'few minutes of effort got the players off the ice and things were quiet inside the arena, but the Crowd hung around outside expecting fireworks which did not develop. * > * * * HANOVER --goal, O'Brien; de- fence, Paterson, Phillips; centre, P.
