NS, in that first period the Bears, with sound gaal4ending And strong skkating and especially bypenalty-killing; ex pert Rick Greig, skated off thea after an exciting period of score- less hoc1ey. As the teams hit the ice in the second, ,It was obvious that the Bears had not learned the 1esson that penalties were hurting their efforts. At the two minute mark Gary Acton Joined teal* Mate Ron Sayle in the penalty box Thirteen seconds later at 2:52 with a two-man advantage, Mur ray Black centred a pass from the corner through the crease under the stick of Bears° goals Rick Scudder and Bob Johnston at the opposite side of the net flip- ped it -in. But the Bears got tha one back when their power play with a little help from the Iron men defence, tied the score a 5:20 with Bob McKinnon, the real opportunist, as the marksman A foolish elbow penalty to Bears' Gary Acton gave•the.Iron- men the chance to rebound. A perfect pass by Murray Black to Steve Caslick, in Phil Esposito's favorite spot — the "dot", and with a quick shot Steve put the Ironmen ahead 2-1. That goal seemed to be the spark to set the Ironmen artillery in motion. Be- fore the period was Over two goals by Carl Stanley and singles by Doug Leitch and Steve Caslick gave the Ironmen a very com- manding 6-1 lead. The Bears hit the ice in the third on the roar and two quick goals, one. a power play goal by Bob McKinnon' at 5:49 and the other by hard-working Brad Mof- fat at 6:23, made the score 6-3 and the Bears were right back in the game. win fort T eti and a toligh one for the I �Qse� >, After� the� �Iwta. a><1'd.. ce chances the fxonmen had in the first PO4/0d, more than one Iron - Man Was shaking his fid, wondering what he had to do to beat the quick hand of Rick Scud- der.', ,.The officials in tJR game were the best to lace on a pair of skates:. in the local arena for a long time. From the Opening face'off they co>Itroled the game • with an iron hand ...Penalties certainly spelled "defeat" for the Bears. Yes; two of the Bears turn- ed out to be big goats in this game. The goat in the first period e was Ron Sayle, with no less than nine minutes in the penalty box t and in the second period stupid penalties to Gary Acton saw him in the penalty box on three occas- - ions as • the Ironmen power play t clicked for three big goals, es- pecially their first two goals of • the game ...One Bear that is cer- tainly going to be missed is the Big Bear, George Scbamott. He sure has won the hearts of the fans. Did you notice that he had more\than one young gal shout- ing, "Oh, George I love your PINK hockey stick". And what was George doing talking to the fan near the blueline? From where I sat as he talked . to the referee, pointing his stick at a dark-haired tan, I'm sure he said, "That fellow makes the best piz- zas in town." ...For the Ironmen, Carl Stanley led the trigger men with the hat trick, his second hat trick in the series. Yes, Carl has certainly been a big thorn in the paw of Bears' goalie Scudder in this series: Carl and fellow line - mate Phil Paquette nulified the Bears' power play in the third period .. . At 9:46 a rink--length'T rush by Greg Hamilton and a perfect pass and a quick tip -in by John Hen- derson and thelronmen had a 7-3 lead. Then excitement mounted at the 15 -minute mark as the Iron - men picked up two quick penal- ties and were forced to play shorthanded for 'nearly two full minutes, The Bears sent their power play into action, and only superb saves by the Little Iron- man in tip ne1, Bl�• y Blackwell, and strong, 'te' a ieue heckld ` by penalty killers Phil Paquette and Carl Stanley, blanked the Bears. Their failure to close the gap during those penalties seemed to sap the -strength of the Bears and the Ironmen raised the score to the final count of 9-3 on goals by Graham Hamilton and Carl Stanley. Yes, it was a tired pack of Bears who skated from the ice, although defeated and eliminated from further playoff action, they went down fighting after putting up a real battle and they certain- ly dished up exciting playoff hockey. By virtue of the win in .this seventh game the Ironmen ad- vanced into group finals in a best - of -seven series with the exciting Arthur Screaming Eagles. What about that Steve Caslick? In this game he was dynamite every time he hit the ice and it was his strong effort that got the Ironmen score rolling. This was Steve's best effort of the playoffs and Ma and Pa Caslick in the crowd certainly had reason to be more than a mite proud of son Steve . .For Bob Johnston, cele- br\ating his birthday, this win was a birthday present he will re- member for a- long time and rumor has it that Mr. Alec of Ito ftmeVtirnielted.for Eltbuck on that first goal by Bob. Appar- ently Mr. Alex had agreed that Bob's birthday gift from Mr. Alex was a buck for every goal he scored ...Greg Hamilton, play- ing with a frozen thumb, was the backbone of the blueline brigade in this win. Brother Graham has high praise for Port's goalie. As Graham put it, "It was a perfect pass he threw me as I stepped from the penalty box and I could hardly believe my eyes — are open net in front of me." The Ironmen got a bit of a sur- prise after the game when one of the Bears passed them a full bot- tle of the bubbly stuff saying, "You guys on your effort in this game deserve this more than we do." A nice gesture on the part of the losers, do you not agree? INSTRUCTOR ART LAIDLAW helps Walter Elliott and son David with chair construction in the woodworking workshop. Projects at the F. E.

The first penalty of the game was called against the Ironmen at 3:45 and 43 seconds later Ar- thur's power play paid off. Dave Draper dented the twine. The Ironmen tied it up as Phil Pa- quette scored at 5:15, Barry O'Krafka drawing an assist. But those Eagles were intent on keeping ahead and with two quick goals in just over a nimute, one by Cal MacDonaldAt 5:24 and the other by Larry Woods at 6:53, they had a 3-1 lead. The Ironmen kept on skating and at 9:25 John Henderson tipped in a pass from Gerry Wheeler. Then, as the period drew to an end, the Ironmen evened the count at 3 -all as Murray McKague beat Arthur's Rick Taylor at 18:32. Both teams played good, excit- ing hockey in the second. Despite many good scoring chance's by both teams, the only goal came at 3:51 when fast skating Dave Dinsmore put Arthur ahead „4-3. As the Ironmen hit the ice in the third they were very much in the game — that is, very much in the game for the first three minutes. Then it happened! The Scream- ing Eagles exploded with four goals in three minutes and those four quick goals completely dis- organized the Ironmen. At 12:45 Wayne Rooney added a little frosting to the cake as he pushed up the final goal of the game and the Eagles treated their home- town fans to a 9-3 victory over the Ironmen. WHISTLE, STOPS — The one- sided score certainly did not indi- cate the play. The Ironmen skated with the Eagles for those first two periods and with any kind of luck in finishing off scor- ing opportunities could have won. It was only in those three minutes between 4:30 and 7:30 of the third that the game was lost ... Arthur certainly had all their artillery working, with no less than 10 players picking up points in this win ... A couple of injuries in this game. Arthur's little pepper -pot, Dave Draper, was hurt in the latter stages of the game when he went rather heavily into the boards. Ironman Gerry Wheeler took a stick across the neck. , . Ironman Greg Hamilton tangled with Arthur's Harvey Hutchison in the last minute of the game and the double five-minute penalties mean Greg will be sitting out Tuesday's game. Coach George Skinn picked up a two minute bench minor for arguing too.. strongly the referee's call on Greg's penalties. Looks like another good series in the making. Game number three is on Thursday night, with the fourth game at the Ioctil arena on Friday night at 9:00, and game number five back in Arthur next Sunday afternoon — a busy week for these two teams. Better plan on getting out to en- joy this good playoff action between those old rivals, - the Arthur Screaming Eagles and the Wingham Ironmen. Peewees battle in semi-finals The PeeWee Bantam House League played three semi-final games last week. L ast Tuesday's game saw Stainton's defeat Marks' by a narrow margin of 4- 3.

Saturday Marks' clobbered the Stainton team 7-1.

The local lads put on a whale of a hockey game from start to finish and there wasn't a minute of dull action. Bill Brophy opened the scoring at the five- minute mark of the first period on a pass from Ken Deichert. Then Daryle put a high shot into the left hand corner of the net to make it 2-0 at the end of the second period.
