Minutes to register a 6 to 5
Tittory over the Iroomen.
4tis las been the case in all
&VMS in this series, action
started with the opening whistle.
At the face-off the Ironmen
donned to the Arthur end and
came near hitting the score
sheet. Then the Arthur team
rebounded f and at the 23 second
mark rang up the first goal of the
game with Cal MacDonald the
marksman.
It was exciting end-to-end
action in the first period. Arthur
out -hustling the Ironmen who
were kept in the game only by
some superb goal -tending by
Paul Heffer. An Iron men
defensive lapse gave Arthur's
dangerous duo of Wayne Rooney
and Dave Densmore an opening
and at 16:02 Arthur was ahead by
two on Wayne Rooney's goal.
With a two -goal lead Arthur
continued to, bombard the
Wingham zone in the second
period with attack after attack
and a perfect, low, screened blast
from the point by John Bell at
5:37 made it 3 to 0 for Arthur.
Things didn't look good for the
Ironmen or their faithful fans.
The pendulum swung to the
Iroinnen's favor at 10:22 when
Arthur's Dave Draper, who
stands at the top of the hate list of
Ironmen fans, picked up a two
minute penalty, The Wingham
supporters rocked the rafters of
the Arthur Cow -Palace with their
-Go - Vilxigharn - Go" and the
Ironmen responded with a power
play goal by Russ Jones at 7:03.
Now the Ironmen were on the
move, they were the attackers.
They bombarded blasts from all
angles and eveitually a perfect
shot° from the point at 11:35 by
Cliff Hetherington made it 3 to 2.
Alittle more than a minute later
Russ Jones picked up his second
goal of the garne to eveirthe score
and the crowd went wild.
The Ironmen continued to
attack and strong back-checkin'g
nullified any Arthur threats. With
less than a minute to go Doug
Leitch, in the slot, picked off a
bad Arthur clearing pass and
with a quick shot along the ice
gave the Ironmen the go-ahead

to Bob Johnston at the edge of the
crease and the Iromnen had what
appeared to be a 'commanding 5

But such was not the case! By
coincidence or not, it was an egg
that seemed to change the game
around_ Yes, at about the five
minute mark action was stopped
when an egg splashed across the
ice and the game was delayed as
the scrapers came forth to re-
move the frozen omelet from the

This pause in action seemed to
refreshen the Arthur team and
when the game retained it was
Arthur flying as if refueled with
rocket power. They out:skated
the Iroomen who seemed to with-
draw into a suicidal defensive
game. At 11:22 Arthur's Cam
MacDonald dented, the twine and
at 13:01 fast -breaking Wayne
Rooney scored to even the count
and the Arthur fans screamed
from their lofty perches, -Go -
Eagles - Go" and their boys re-
sponded with attack after attack
thrown into the Wingham end.
Only Ironmen goalie Paul Heffer
kept Wingham in the game.
With only one minute and 18 ,
seconds left in the game, Arthur's
perseverance paid off and a rifle
shot from the point by Ken Fair
gave Arthur the go-ahead goal.
With less than a minute to go
excitement mounted as the
Ironmen pulled their goalie for an
extra attacker. However, mind-
ful of their earlier loss in similar
circumstances, Arthur threw up
an unbeatable defensive wall to
Preserve their 6 to 5 win.
Wbistle Stops . . What a see -saw
game, with each team taking
turns at carrying the attack. .
That first period of hockey had to
be either the Irenmen's poorest
effort of the playoffs or else
Arthur's best . . . Only in the
second period did the Ironmen
display their real playoff power
. . . Paul Heffer was the one
bright spot for the Ironmen in this
loss as he was certainly peppered
with shots and beseiged with goal
mouth scrambles . . . For Arthur,
Cal MacDonald seemed to be the
big gun with two goals and an
cist and a strong checking
game. . This was the cleanest
game of the series with only 10
penalties handed out as Arthur's
Dave Draper continued to lead
the penalty parade with three
penalties '... Ironmen picked up,a
couple of injuries m this one,
Steve Ste Marie getting a facial
clip requiring stitches and Barry
O'Krafka injuring a knee but
finishing the game. He obviously
skated with concerned caution
. . Both teams hada good turn-
out of fans and they were treated'
to lots of action, the outcome of
the game notdecided until the
final whistle, . . This series is
certainly putting hockey in the

Sometimes a bike can stand changes. Honda's made •
some, on the old 500 Four. Enough changes to make it
a whole new bike.
The biggest news comes straight from the heart of
the machine. The engine's moved up from 498 to 544 cc's.
The transmission's improved (with a new shift
drum for smoother shifting and a new clutch to take
the extra power).
There's a new crankcase emission control system.
Vapours are routed through the air cleaner
for recornbustion.
The 550 has a shrouded hydraulic front disc brake.
And electric starting, With safety interlock. Centralized
fuse box. Rear brake wear indicator. Rubber -mounted
instruments, rubber -mounted front fender.
Honda didn't move the centre of gravity. It's still low.
So the 550 Four handles as beautifully as the old
500 Four ever did.
• Bring your bike in for a complete
tune-up. Beat the spring rush!
