This year's Wingham mid- gets tasted defeat for the first time on Monday evening as they were downed by a 6-4tal- ly after journeying onto Kincar- dine's home ice. This was the team's first loss after victories overDurham by a 3-2 score and Goderich '7-5 in an exhibition encounter. Goals in Monday night's game went to Monty Temple-. man with two, Bev Taylor and Bob Armstrong picking up sin- gles. Wingham took a second per- iod 1-0 lead with Templeman scoring from Armstrong who dug the puck from behind the net to set up Templeman. Kin- cardine came charging from be- hind with three unanswered goals by Cuyler, Wittig and Shewfelt. Bill Skinn, in the Wingham nets, was brilliantly steady throughout the period, on one occasion stopping a'two- man break without assistance. Long dropping shots from the blueline seemed to give Bill the most trouble, two slipping by him in this manner. The third period saw Tem- pleman score for Wingham with the assist to Tom Irwin. The shot by Templeman deflected off a Kincardine player to sur- prise the goaltender. Two more Kincardine goals dealt a rough blow to Wing- ham, Shewfelt and Wittig scor- ing to make the board read 5- 2. Bev Taylor scored unassist- ed on a long drive from centre and minutes later Armstrong took a nice pass from Temple- man to put Wingham within one goal of tying the score. The deciding goal of the game came late in the third off the stick of Tom Cuyler who played with the Wingham Centennial Midget team. The goal came on the third shot of a rush after Skinn had stopped a breakaway and his rebound, the third shot got by him. In their 7-5 exhibition win over Goderich, goals went to Armstrong with three, Tern- pleman two, Joe Kerr andTom Irwin getting singles. Against Durham, Armstrong fired two with Templeman netting one for the 3-2 win. The team plays host to Wal- kerton at seven o'clock Friday evening at the Wingham arena.
