The protest, lodged against Howick after a game on January 24 for using a player under suspension, was upheld by the Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) last week. Clinton was awarded the two points for the game which had ended in 4-4 tie, said Mustangs' Manager Bryan Marriage. •. The Mustangs are now nine points up on Mitchell for the fourth and final playoff spot in the northern division of the Western Junior U league. Clinton's record is'tiow 14 wins, 20 losses and 3 ties. Tavistock 4 - Cllnton 3 Despite a strong two-way performance, the Mustangs dropped a close game to the Tavistock Braves 4-3 in Clinton on January 31. "I think we should have won," said Mr. Marriage, adding the team was without leading scorer Randy Marriage who was out with a suspension and several other key players due to minor injuries. Tavistock struck early with a goal within the first minute of play. Clinton scored the equalizer at the 14:12 mark on a goal by lit wee nd. series Byron Boyes assisted by Randy Parker and Bob Snell. The period ended with the score tied 1-1. Tavistock, however, scored two unanswered goals in the second period to take a 3-1 lead into the dressing room. With only 12 seconds gone in the third period, Clinton scored to Oise the gap to 3-2. Ron McKay scored with assists going to Wayne Smith and Brad Hymers. But, the one goal margin was short-lived as Tavistock upped the score to 4-2 just 21 seconds later: Clinton scored a power -play goal late in the game, but the game ended 4-3 in favor of the Braves. Clinton's last goal was scored by Bob Ladd, assisted by Scott Gilders and Sean Van Dongen. Clinton 7 - Howick 4 On February 2, Clinton played host to last placed Howick and came out with a 7-4 victory. During the game, the Mustangs registered a whopping 70 shots against the Howick goaltender. "1 think our boys played well. They could have scored 50 goals if it wasn't for the Howick goaltender," said Mr. Marriage in assessing the Mustang's performance. Travis Lyndon led the Mustangs with a goal and two assists while Bob Dupee had a goal and an assist and Brad Hymers added two assists. Scoring single goals were Randy Parker, Scott Gilders, Randy Marriage, Wayne Smith, Dean Armstrong, and Bob Dupee. Sean Van Dongen and Byron Boyes had one assist apiece. Mr. Marriage says the Mustangs have almost certainly assured themselves of a playoff berth with a nine point bulge over Mitchell. In order to make the playoffs, Clinton has only to win one of their remaining five games in order to eliminate the Hawks from playoff contention. The playoff structure will consist of afive game, five team round-robin playoff. In addition to the top four teams from the Northern division, Grand ValIey would be included in the playoffs. After the round- robin is completed, the top two teams would compete in a four out of seven series to determine the northern division champion. The dates and times for the games are still to be scheduled, says Mr. Marriage. Booster Club Draw The Clinton Junior D Booster Club draw for $100 made on January 31 was won by Greg Burns of Clinton.

Then came Chipchase's goal early in overtime as he took the puck from the face-off and drill- ed a wrist shot from just inside the blue line. Clinton's defence of Scott Rathwell, Scott Shaddick, Shane MacDonald and Scott Wright deserve a, lot of credit for a strong defensive game - Clinton 4 Port Stanley 2 On Saturday, in their second game of the Tournament, Clinton came up with a hard- fought 4-2 win over Port Stanley. In the first period at 2:09 Scott Rathwell converted in a goal on a beautiful three-way passing play from Mark Livermore and Chris Kennedy.

In the third period Mark Livermore found the empty right corner of the net on a set up in the slot area from Chris Kennedy and Scott Rathwell. The line of Livermore, Kennedy and Wildfong were impressive in'this contest as they scored three of the four goals. Port Stanley clbsed out the scoring, but it was too little and too late as Clinton skated off with the 4-2 victory. Ministry proposing $l0 angling licence The Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources is proposing a $10 -a -year angling licence for•Ontari residents age 18 to 64, and a $5-aeyea 1' ence for residents 65 and over. Natural Resources Minister Vincent Ker- rio told the Ontario Legislature recently that a condition of the proposal is that most of the revenues generated by.the licence be used directly to improve Ontario's angling fisheries, and also that the licence meet with the acceptance of the anglers of Ontario. "We feel the majority of anglers support a resident fishing licence as a means of help- ing to pay for the protection, maintenance and rebuilding of the resource they use," he said. "We would like to see a licence introduced in time for the 1987 fishing season. However, before Ave go any further with this proposal, we will,make sure the public has a chance to give us their opinion, and to participate in shaping the conditions - including the cost - of the licence." Mr. Kerrio said the draft proposal presented to the Legislature recently is to be considered only a starting point ,for discus- sion and negotiation. A round of public meetings will be held across the province during the next three months to enable public participation in for- mulating the final terms of the angling licence. The public will also be asked to comment on how the revenues generated by the licence should be spent. The, Ontario government spends more than $30 -million annually on fisheries pro- grams. The fisheries budget dollars go toward fish and habitat protection, public education and co-operative programs,' cleaning up polluted fisheries habitat, fish stocking and research. "Much more still needs to be done," Mr.Kerrio said. "We estimate that a resi- dent sport fishing licence could add $10 - million to our fisheries management budget. The increased revenues would allow us to expand our programs, and tackle many more projects to improve sport Adams rink fishing across the province." The introduction of a resident sport fishing licence has received support from groups such as the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, the Northern Ontario Tourist Outfitters Association, the Federa- tion of Ontario Naturalists and the Canadian Wildlife Federation. • wins event VANASTRA - Murray Adams and his team of Ann Adams, Ron Sellars and Rosemary Sellars were the winners of the Manufacturer's Life Trophy on February 1 at the Vanastra Curling Club.
