In a recent game against the

son and, of course, they seem
to be the order o,J the day in
overtime during the Stanley Cup
playoffs;
I can recall any number of
overtime playoff games being
decided by strange goals. But
I think the reason for this is
that more emphasis is put on
a goal of this type during Stan.
ley Cup games. With greater
newspaper, ra1ia and television
coverage during the playoffs,
there is more exposure when
•you "luck" one home. They
become conversation pieces.

Back in the 1964..65 fina1
Between the Red ' Wings and
Toronto Maple Leafs, Bob Baun
scored a strange one.
It was in the sixth game
when he bounced a shot off the
shaft of Bt11 Gadsby's stick to
give Toronto the victory.
I've never been fortunate
enough to score a goal in play-
oft `overtime, so I don't know
how it feels. I imagine it would
be great.
It was iii. a playoff game
that I scored my strangest goal
of all time. It was in the 1949.
50 playoffs against the Cana.
diens. Bill Dornan was in goal
for them and he and his team-
mate, Ken Reardon, and I all
rushed for a 'loose puck.dIt w
was a three-way race and e
all whacked at it with our sticks
at the same time. I fell over
the two of them and as I was
sliding toward the goal on the
seat of my pants I looked up
and the puck was' falling out
of -the lights. It landed in the
goal crease and rolled in,
We ..won the cup that year,
too.

Councillor B. R. Robinson
continued his attack on pro.
perty tax exemptions enjoyed
by the Liquor Conjrol Board
outlet in town at last Thurs.
day's meeting of town council.,
He said the property was
assessed for $19,225, which
would provide for taxation -at
a normal rate of $2,336 a year.
Instead, he said, the town re.
ceives $1,500 from the provin• '
cial government as a grant
in lieu of taxes. He asked on
what basis they were' exempt.
Town clerk Sherman Blake
explained that the LCBO was
