Brydges came back at 6:50 to score and tie the game on a power-play attack and then just a minute and eighteen seconds later scored again to take the lead. With 2:20 left on the clock Bill Haines scored from the Tim Dillow and Kevin Johnston to give Brussels a tie and end the first period of play that way.

Record deer harvest reported The Wingham District office of the Ministry of Natural Resources saysthatcloseto350deer were harvested during the recent hunt, an increase of 20 per cent over last year. District biologist Mike Malhiot says that recent mild winters have combined with the ministry’s harvest management to result in a Huron County deer population which is the highest in history. He adds that the record harvest this year will ensure a healthy and productive herd well into the future. A record number of 1314 hunters received deer tags for the controll­ ed hunt in the Wingham District, up 14 per cent from last year. A total of 244 deer were brought to MNR check stations at Wingham, Hullett and Zurich where the animals were weighed, aged, and sampled for a variety of biological indices, using tests which are standards throughout North America. The largest buck brought in weighed 251 lbs. dressed weight, (335 lbs. live weight), and was three-and-one-half years old. Ten bucks weighed over 200 lbs. dressed weight, but only eight animals were over four-and-one- halfyearsold. Fawnsandyearlings made up 65 per cent of the total harvest. MNR staff have radio-collared and ear-tagged 24 deer in Huron County over the past three years as part of a province-wide study. Three of the collared deer were harvested by hunters this year. Of the 12 mortalities among the collared deer to date, seven deaths have been attributed to hunters, two each were killed by dogs and vehicles, and one was killed by poachers Crummer and Chapman to com­ plete the second period scoring and give Brussels a 5-2 lead at the end of the period. Almost 10 minutes of the third period had been played when Tim Fritz scored his fourth goal of the game at the 10:50 mark from defenceman Kevin Lee. A shortage of legs may have been the reason but the boys slowly watched their four-goal lead di­ minish in the remaining lOminutes as Mt. Brydges slowly decreased their lead to one as they scored their last goal (short-handed) with just nine seconds remaining on the clock. The Bulls were lucky to come home with a 6-5 victory.

Mitchell opened the scoring at the 13:07 mark of the first period and it took the Bulls another seven minutes before they beat the visiting goalie and tied the score. Mike Chapman found the spot after receiving a pass from Tim Fritz and Brian Campbell. There were 4:10 left in the period when Rob Strome scored the go-ahead goal from defenceman Kevin Lee, to give Brussels a 2-1 lead at the end of the first period. Kevin McArter picked the puck up behind his own net after goalie Jeff McGavin had deflected a Mitchell rush, and weaved his way through the maize of players to score unassisted at the 16:23 mark to add to the Bulls’ lead. There was 8:56 left when Mitchell scored to close the gap to one, with the remainder of the period scoreless for both teams. Ron Strome came through with his second goal six minutes into the third period when he beat the Hawks’ goalie on a pass from Ron Chambers and Brian Campbell. Mitchell was credited with a controversial goal with just 47 seconds remaining on the clock to endthegameandgivetheBulls another one goal victory. It was a much better played game to watch than the last time these two teams played here in town and good officiating makes all the difference in the world. We spectators enjoy this brand of hockey much more. Keep up the good work fellows. The Bulls will be at home to the visiting Clinton Mustangs on Wednesday night for an 8:45 start and their first encounter of the season. The team doesn’t have to travel this week and will be at home to Wellesley on Sunday afternoon at 2 p.m. for their second game of the week. CRUDADERS PLAY ALONE Those spectators who were planning to get a look at this year’s Crusader team on Sunday night were disappointed as the game was cancelled. The Drayton Intermed­ iates showed up for a 2:30 game and found the Juniors on the ice. Spectators will have to wait two weeks for their first peak at the home team as they are participat­ ing in a tournament in Drayton this weekend with their first game at 1 p.m. Saturday.
