When Huntsville Midgets drop-
ped an 8-3 decision to Goderich
Midget Sailors at Goderich on Fri-
day night it marked the first de-
feat for the Huntsville team in 22
games played by Huntsville up to
that time this season.
It was a rugged game, sparked
by plenty of dash with the goalers
of both teams turning in remark-
ably fine performances. After
their long trip from Huntsville, the
Muskoka boys seemed a bit off
color, even as the Goderich team
was in their first game at Hunts-
ville, which they lost 9.-4, after
their tedious trip to Huntsville.
Goderich opened the game with
determined playing. Larry Jeffrey
started the scoring at 11.45 for
Goderich. Pennington made it two

Tater, then 1luntsville tallied to
make the score 2-1 for Goderich
at the• end of the first period.
Gotieri-cls barely missed scoring
several more goals in this period,
and Huntsville was pressing strong
by the end of the period.
The second period saw the boys
mixing it up when -the referees
appeared to `be overly lenient on
penalties. But even at that, a
total of eight penalties were hand
ed out in the second period. Hunts-
ville went ahead for the first time
in the game when they netted two
goals in thet first six minutes of
play. It was evened up at 8.17
when Larry Jeffrey dashed in. for
Goderich goal. In doing so, he
crashed into the net, receiving a
facial gash which requjred a stitch
to close. He was unable to play
for the rest of the game and was
taken from the arena by ambul-
ance. This incident spurred the
Goderich team on and they scored
three more goals that period to
give them a commanding lead. At
the 14.26 mark, Garrick of Gode-
rich and Kennedy of Huntsville
were 'penalized for fighting which

which the referees quickly halted.

Rally To Win 5-4
The Comeback Kids -did it again
Saturday night.
Trailing 4-1 at. the end of the t
second period, the Sailors electri-'
fied 900 fans with a dazzling four -
goal onslaught in the last 15 min-
utes, while the bewildered north-
erners were kept scoreless.
The breath -taking 54 win gave
Goderich a 2-1 edge in the series.
Nineteen penalties were handed
out in the game, seven going- to
Goderich and '12 to Huntsville.
Once again, Ron Williamson
rade some tremendous saves in'
,the Goderich nets, as did ,Tom -
Conlin at the other end of the ice.
The Sailors bore down right from
the opening whistle 'but didn't
seem to have much luck in the
scrambles around the Huntsville
goal.
Bill Gallow received a tremend-
ous 'ovation when he scored the
first goal for the Sailors while his
team was a man short. Racing
down the ice, he dodged several
Huntsville players and beat Conlin
cleanly. -
. The period ended with Goderich
Owed 1-0. But the Sailors' fans
were wearing long faces before
many minutes. had elapsed in the
second frame. Huntsville scored
four goals without any reply from
th-e Sailors, and it looked as if the
larger northern team might be
wearing the locals down.
The fourth Huntsville goal was
scored when Goderich . was .two
players short due to penalties.
In the final frame, (which owns
played in whirlwind style, e,
Sailors caught fere, ripping throngh
the Huntsville defence for four
spectacular goals.
Bi11 Gallow touched off the four -
goal rampage. Then team captain
Dave Leeson took command. He
beat Conlin after ripping through
the Huntsville defence in a dazzling
dash that left fans Oen-mouthed
in amazement.
Displaying the same tremendous
will to win, Art Peachey tied it
up for the Sailors at 43.34.
The Sailors achieved their game=s
winning margin when Ross Pen-
nington scored on a bullet drive
from an alniost ,impossible angle.
The puke went in over the shoulder
of the surprised Huntsville goalie.
An OMHA official, Herb Parker,
of Stratford, was the centre of a
hassle -around the penalty box. The
clock appeared to have confused
him a bit, and Goderich offi-cials
protest.d that he had kept Ross
Pennington in the sin bin longer
than two minutes. Earlier in the
game, a Huntsville supporter made
a complaint to the referees about
penalty time -keeping.

Summarize °56 Results
Of Local Departments
The Town of Goderich ended
1956 with a surplus of $1,264.99,
according to the auditor's report
presented to Town Council by A.
M. Harper. The surplus at the end
of 1955 was $3,972.12.
The report shows that the hydro
department of the Public 'Utilities
Commission accumulated a surplus
of $48,652.65 on its 1956 opera-
tions. In the earned surplus ac-
count of the hydro department, as
of December 31, the "balance of
surplus" was $280,749.98.
In contrast to the profit in the
hydro department, the water sys-
tem showed a deficit of $3,656.75.
Results for other boards, which
receive support from the town,
were as follows: Goderich Public
School Board --deficit $3,711.85;
Goderich Separate School Board-
urplus $1,333.33; Goderich Dis-
trict Collegiate Institute Board-.
surplus $454.89; Maitland Ceme-
tery Board -- surplus $1,818.74;
Goderich Public Library --deficit
$1,740.05; Goderich Recreation and
Arena Committee - star plus
$9,508.39.
The auditor's report is drawn up
as ,prescribed by government of-
ficials. In some cases, the result
might appear a little misleading.1
For instance, while there is a large
surplus shown fr Goderich Recre-
ation and Arend Committee, most
of that sum went to pay off a
deficit incurred during the previous
year..
