To. Trounce Lou Balls. 5-2
Wingham Towne Hallera broke their
six game losing streak on Saturday
night When they walloped the Lon-
lion Lou Balls 5-2 in a rough battle
during which the locals held the lead
for almost the entire session. Punct-
uated by sixteen penalties, including
four majors for fighting, the game
was rugged throughout,
Wingham took a two goal lead in
the first period, with tallies by Wilson
and Purdon from McNeill and Nash.
Quiree scored for the Lou Balls in the
final minutes of the first frame, after
Nash and Berger had been sent to the
box for fighting,
In the second stanza Pigeon from
Granville came back for the Lou Balls
to' even the score, but two for the
locals from Wilson (Purdon, McNeil)
and Purdon (McNeil) put Wingham
on, top. A fifth goal by Nash (Wilson)
in the (veiling xninutes of the final
phase was a clincher.
A clash of personalities occurred in
the first period, with Nash and Ber-
ger each taking five for fighting. In
the dying moments of the game Ber-
ger again got involved with Wilson,
when they paused to slug it out on the
ice, A further battle occurred in the
penalty box as the buzzer sounded to
end the game,

TOWNE HAILERS LOSE
TO SARNIA 6 - 4
Sarnia Junior Sailors moved into a
first place tie with the Seaforth Bald-
wins on Wednesday when they de-
feated the Wingham Towne Hailers
6-4 in a see-saw fixture at Sarnia.
The locals were outclassed in the
shot-on-goal department throughout
the session, but territorial play was
fairly balanced.
Tom Wilson put Wingham out in
front in the first period when he scor-
ed on Sailor Goalie Bob Ryan at 13.37.
In the second period, Murray Gerrie,
added thZi second Wingham counter at
7.15 increasing the Towne Hailers' lead
to 2-0. Sarnia hit back to even the
count in the last half of the frame on
goals by Bob (Duncan at 12.23 and
"Tussy" Dunham at 17.13,
Wingham again surged ahead as the
third period got under way, with Bob
McNeil hitting the net at the 15 sec-
ond mark and Tommy Wilson getting
his second goal of the game at 4.49.
The Sailors finally swung what
looked like a certain loss to a victory
when they 'capitalized on a Wingham
penalty to hit pay dirt four times.
Scoring on the power plays were
Keith Moffatt and "Tussy" Dunham.
AE he eelAtti.aittl .bad aealsted in every way possible, Four 4PRefiJS against the.

Cost of Sidewalks
Reputing on the cost of the new
sidewalks on Josephine, Victoria and
Diagonal read, the Mayor said that a
total of $6i300 had been spent on side-
walk improvements during the past
few months. Sidewalks Oa the west
side of Josephine Street, laid by the
Grey-Wellington Paving Co., had cost
a total of $2,798, while thos'e on the
east side laid by Greenaway Construc-
tion Co., had cost, $2,320, a less amount
due to the narrower sidewalk on that
side of the street.
The 'council was also informed that
the paving eompany had been origin-
ally slated to come to finish the gut-
ter on the east side, but that they had
been unable to do the work at the .ex-
pected time. The matter, has now been
put off until the spring at which time
the black top will be rolled in from the street to the curb.
Arena Questions
Councillor Charlie Crossett said that
there had been some misunderstand-
big.= the part of the Public About the
45% which had been asked by the
arena cemraisa1011 on the gross gate of
Junior "g" hockey gamep, He ,said
that a lot of people thought that this
money was going into the arena Mari-
agerp' pocket, whereas in. actual fact
tile money was intended to. be used for
incidental expenses in connection with
the hockey players. Mr. Crossett said
that there are a lot of expenses invely,
ed in a hockey club such as transpor
tation of players and officials and
other considerations, and it was to
cover these expenses that the 15% was
suggested.
He was of the opinion that 15% of
the gross would not even. cover these
expenses, and he suggested that it was
too much to expect private individuals
to ,be actually out of pocket because
of these expenses when they were al-,
ready donating their time to hockey'
business. Mr. Crossett said that in his
opinion Alf Lockridge and the arena
commission were doing their best not
only to make the hockey team a suc-
cess but to make money for the arena,
and he thoUght that they deserved a
lot of credit for what they were doing.
The council odis9USsed arena
dal matters and decided that they
would draw up a contract with the
arena commission whereby the hockey
team would split the gate on all.
Jenier "B" games on a p-oo basis,
with the club getting 65% of the
money, and that a contract be drawn
up with arena manager Alf LocicfNge
to serve in his regular capacity Ti a
salary of $500 per year.
