Stang's upset Kinucks
By Bryan
Marriage
The Clinton Mustangs
remain the only un-
defeated team in OHA Jr.
"C" Central division
action, after last weekend
as they downed the
previously undefeated
Kincardine Kinucks, 9-5.
The Mustangs scored
early in the game with
five first period goals,
while the Kinucks
managed only one,
against new Clinton
goaltender Ron Elliott.
The Stang scores in the
first period came from
the sticks of Paul
Doherty, John Hart, Paul
Priestap, Dave
Stephenson, and Bill
Lewis.
In the second period,
both teams scored twice
and play was much more
even than in the first
period. Paul Helesic
scored for the Stangs
midway through the
period and Paul Priestap

The Sumac bush is not often thought of as
being edible in any form. The fact that just about
everyone has heard about pdison sumac does not
enhance its reputation either.
In truth, however, the red berries of the
staghorn sumac make a delightful drink. The
poison sumac is readily distinguished by its fruit
which grows in drooping clusters and is ivory
white in colour.
The staghorn sumac, which is generally
agreed to be the best, has a thick furry covering
on the stems and the bright red berries grow in
upright cone shaped clusters.
The sumacs are quite common and can usually
be found growing in open areas in poor soil
(gravelly soils being preferred). Its penchant for
growing alongside roads make it an ideal fruit
for foragers.
Indians used the sumac in a variety of ways.
The leaves were. smoked by the Indians, either
alone or mixed with tobacco, and the berries
used to make a tart drink. Bartram reported in ,
his description of travel with the Indians that,
"Cree and Cherokee Indians rubbed the furry
covering of the sumac fruits into their hair, then
tied it up with a handkerchief for overnight. In
the morning the hair was combed outand clear
bear's oil was used as a dressing." He attributed
this treatment to preserving the rich black
colour and splendor of the hair.
Sumac can be gathered from late summer till
late winter and apparently keeps extremely well
under almost any condition. In preparing sumac
berries, always steep them in hot water. Boiling
the fruit releases tannic acid which will cause it
to become very bitter:
To make that favourite old Indian tea, simply
steep one fruit cluster in two cups of hot water,
strain and sweeten to taste with maple sugar or
syrup.
An interesting borscht can be made by
steeping two fruit clusters in two cups of hot
water for 15 minutes. Strain the juice, stir in two
tablespoons of raw sugar and chill. Serve this
concoction in bowls, topped off with sour cream.
A delicious sauce for poached eggs, fish or
green vegetables can also be made. Melt four
tablespoons of butter in a frying pan over low
heat and gradually stir in three tablespoons of
unbleached white flour. Then slowly stir in 11/2
cups of sumac juice as prepared above but minus
the sour cream.Serve it on poached eggs, or pour
over fish or vegetables, sprinkle on grated
parmesan cheese and pop under the broiler for 3-
4 minutes.
As I mentioned, these fruits are available all
winter, so if you're having company over some
night, treat them to something a little different. I
would advise, however, to try it once or twice
yourself, first, just to get the techniques down
pat.

Robert
Fotheringham
scored a short handed
goal late in the period to
maintain the four goal
lead going into the final
period.
The final period
produced numerous
penalties to both teams
and again both teams
notched a pair of goals
and the big shooter for
the Stangs was Tim
MacLean as he fired in a
pair, his sixth and
seventh of the season.
Newcomer in the
Clinton nets, Ron Elliott
from Thunder Bay,
played extremely well in
his debut, and the
Mustangs now have three
solid goaltenders, in
Elliott, Divok and John
Page. Page remains on
the injured list, with a
broken arm, side lining
him for another few
weeks.
In Walkerton on Sun-
day afternoon, Neil
Colquhoun, Phil Arthur
and Derek Divok proved
to be the heroes in
preserving the Stange'
unbeaten string as they
had to battle back to gain
a 4-4 tie with the Black
Hawks.
The Mustangs trailed
the Hawks, all through
the game by one goal and
Colquhoun fired the tying
goal with just six seconds
left in the game.
Walkerton scored the
only goal in the first
period, and both teams
scored twice in, the
second. Phil Arthur
scored both Clinton goals
in the second period and
assisted on Dave
Stephenson's tying goal
early in the third period,
before Walkerton went
ahead again in the third
period.
Excellent goaltending
by Clinton's Derek Divok,
enabled the Stangs to tie
the Hawks as Clinton was
outshot 55 to 35.
The Clinton Mustangs'
next home game will be
played this Friday night
in Goderich at 8:30 p.m.
The Stangs will play host
to the leagued newest
entry the Arthur
Screaming Eagles. The
Arthur team, not known
for their finesse but more
for their rough style of
play, is perhaps the most
penalized team in the
Central Jr. "C" division.
This should prove to be
a good game as the
Mustangs plan to remain
undefeated and feel that
the intimidating tactics of
the Arthur team will not
alter their plans. The
Mustangs" home games to
date have been well at-
tended by fans and hopes
are this will continue
until ice is made
available in Clinton.

The hot brine pipes, to prevent the frost from penetrating the soil, are in, and
workmen are busy putting in the sand on top of which will go the cooling pipes.
All the pipes are full of water under pressure to prevent collapse during the
