SIFTOS HOLD POWERFIJL
SiSK1NS TO 5-5 O.T. TIE
"One of the best • games of
mer season," was the cOmment
from many of the 433 fans as
they left the arena Friday night.
The Siftos had just fought the,
Waterloo Siskins to -a 5-5 over-
time tie.
The game was a reversal of
form as the 'Siftos struck first
and after their first, goal they
never did look ba, The Sis-
kins had- to score t'+d' keep pace
with the Siftos. :They came
from behind on five different
occasions to tie up the game.
A key faotor in the game was
the outstanding play of McNab
in the Goderich nets. It was
undoubtedly the finest goal -
keeping performance he has
turned in on home ice this
year. _ .
The Siskins were rarely on
the short end of the offensive
play and by the time the total
shots on goal were totaled up
they came out on the long end
by a wide margin. Final totals
were: by Waterloo, 59, and by
Goderich, 37.
Goderich held a slight edge
in play in the first period and
they picked up, the first goal
of the game at 7:47. Hether-
ington set Bowness in the clear
with a beautiful p$ms . Roger,
playing one of hinn'best home
efforts of the season, made no -
mistake as he put a hard low.
drive into the bottom right-
hand corner. Waterloo scored.
with only 50 seconds remaining
in the period to tie it up for
the first time.
Thompson and Loveless com-
bined on the first of their three
goals early in the second. It
was methodical passing that
put Thompson in position for
the tally, his 30th of the season.
Leduc got tagged with a minor
for hooking. McNab played a
key roll in this defence and
his team mates also put on a
fine exhibition of defensive
hockey. It was a fast, rough
period of hockey and the Siftos
were outshot 20 to 9.
Each team scored twice be-
fore the halfway mark of the
final stanza. Loveless scored
from Thompson for their sec-
ond goal-.. Waterloo tied it up
for the fourth consecutive time
and then Thompson scored from
Loveless to finalize their pace-
setting play. Clairmont, who
scored the third goal, picked
up his second of the night te-
give his team-mates . at least a
point for their night's play.
In overtime, the teams raced
ti -to end with . neither team
being able to score. It was a
fitting finish to a fine exhibition
of hockey. Waterloo did every-
thing to score aa' they -tested
McNab 11 times but he was
not to be denied. The Siftos
had only four shots on net in
the period but anyone of them
could have - gone for- a goal.
The big gun for the Siskins,
Wayne Clairmont, did not leave
the ice in overtime and played
a sparkling period in a deter-
mined bid to take home a win.
.w. This Friday night the Siftos
play host to thh Owen Sound
Greys in their final home stand
of the season. Goderich has
played some of their best home
ice hockey against the' Greys
and this one should be, ,equal
to all the others as the Siftos
will endeavor to finish the sea-
son°with a will in front of their
home fans.

Paul Henderson And Gary Doak
Appeiring° At Lucknow Noonday
. Paul- Rendersone a popular � Hendersgp decided to follow
and.ext>aen ely able•hockey play- his coach's advice until he ye s
approached by ex-Ramilton net-
minder Denny Riggin no.Vv with
Detroit in the NHL.
"I played ball against Denny
and he told me. that I should
stop•off bo Ramilten and get, in
shape before going to Niagara
Falls. After three days here
they told me had made the
club," he continued.
Phoned Dad
"I phoned My father in Luck-
now to see what I should"'.do
andwe decided that I would be
better off to stay in Hainiltoiit,
After all, I •wasn't sure whether
I could make the Niagara Falls
club."
Henderson said that no pro
club showed any .interest in him
until the scored 18 goals in an
ANIMA playoff in 1959.
• "The story was -in the papers
and the first team to contact
Mme was Toronto Maple Leafs,"
he said. "I didn't like their
attitude, though. Their scout
said:, `I suppose we have to
take a look at any player who
scores 18 goals in one game'."
He said Harold `Baldy" Cot-
ton went to Lucknow in an at-
tempt to lure him to Niagara
Falls but he was never actually
contacted by Detroit scouts.
"I decided I would rather
stay in Hamilton because it's
more central and I wanted to
continue my education. I didn't
know how far I would go in
hockey. I figured the only thing
I had going for me was my,
speed," Henderson said. --
H -e played 12 games with
Hamilton Bees and 28 with the
Red Wings his first year here.
"I. scored a few goals with
Bees but I didn't get 'filch ice
time with the- -A squad and I
only scored one goal during the
schedule and • another in the
playoffs," he said.
.Good Record
The Lucknow right winger
had 24 gcrals and 20- assists' -with
last year's Memorial C u p
champs. His 44 points were
gillek for 'fourth place behind
Pit 1Viartin's 88, MacDonald's 85
and Howie JVldharrd's 5 in the
club's individual scoring.
er who played on the local
Junior "B" team here in the
'59-'60 season will be 'especially
honored at Lucknow ?riday,
February 11 when Siftos -visit
there, and. it appears likely
there will be a good attendance
by Goderich fans who are also
interested in young Gary Doak,.
a local boy who played junior
"B" here last„zgar.
Best Player
The Lucknow Sentinel says.
in a recent news story: ,
"It will be a tribute to Paul
Henderson to fill the arena, for
we have never had ,a better
hockey player go out of Luck -
now," says Charley Webster in
reporting to the local Lions
Club at their regular meeting
on Monday. •
"He was bringing the club
up-to-date on plans for the
Hamilton Red Wings exhibition
game here (Lucknow) on Febru`
ary llth with the Goderich Jr.
'B' Siftos."
Print Interview
The Lucknow paper repro-
duces a story from the Hamil-
ton Spectator by -Joe Watkins,
in which Paul Henderson re-
fers to his days in Goderich,
and the coach he refers to was
Ted Williams, who' was .n
charge at that time... Here is
the interesting interview which
Joe Watkins had with Paul
Henderson, a boy everyone feels
is slated to go straignt into the
majors, with no detours:
`':;Must Be- Fate
Hamilton Red Wing fans will
undoubtedly shudder at the
thought that Paul Henderson
would,•,be.,.wearing,..,a., Niagara
Falls uniform instead of Hamil-
ton Red- Wing colors tonight if
it hadn't been for a three-day
stopover here in the early fall
of 1960. .
And Hamilton Forum officials
had no idea then that their
decision to put the ice in early
that year -hid a' direct bearing
on whereiine of; junior hockey's
to prospects would serve his
al pi`ernticeship.
Henderson, whose 34 goals so
for this season are just 12 shy
of Lowell- MacDonald's all-tirife-
record- dor a. Hamilton player
set last•season, spent the' 1959-
60 season with the Goderich
junior "B" club. •
"My coach in Goderich told
me that if I really wanted to
be a junior A player I should go.
with Hap Emms," Henderson re-
called yesterday. "He- , said
Emms - could teach me more
hockey than any- of the other
coh'ehes."
