TenPas and Cousins, both rookies with the Royals this season,. accounted for all four goals for Wingham in the 4-4 tie. He did not better his own personal best time, but Wingham's Owen Curtis said he is pleased with his CN Tows, run. ,.,.,,Sunday, —in a, Toronto. Mr. Curtis, who holds the tower's best -time record for the over -30 category, reported he ran it this time in 14:47, but added that is not too bad considering the damp weather made breathing "pretty hard" in the stairwell. Two years ago Mr. Curtis ran the CN Tower's 1,765 steps in 13:02. Mr. Curtis said he dedicated this year's run to his family, his mother, two sisters and a special sister- in-law. They all provided him with great inspiration. • THESOUARE •• TUES.-WED.-THURS. AT 8:00 P.M. Bowling Scores � f.f-t-. -♦., +I./' I.J I, ^ITR %"`I../1 � e^2i:.r� ;1^ %�r�./^` MON.

The Wingham Advance -Times, Oct. 31, 1984- Page 13 Royals off to flying t rl witwin,tie in Iwo games The Wingham Royals are off to a flying start in their WOAA Intermediate hockey season, with a win and a tie in their first two games. In both contests the Royals had to come from behind, showing surprising poise for a team which has just un- dergone a major rebuilding. Based on the per- formances to date, local hockey fans are in for a real treat on Friday nights this year, with some very ex- citing newcomers adding a new dimension to the team which reached the WOAA championship last season. In their home opener at the Wingham arena last Friday night, the Royals started against the best by hosting the powerful Ripley In- termediates, who had eliminated them in the championship series last spring, and battling to a 4-4 draw. Goaltender Ron Smith was his old self, turning in a sparkling performance in the Wingham net, especially in the second period when the Royals appeared to wilt briefly under a relentless Ripley attack. The team came back with a vengeance in the third, however, as younger legs appeared to turn the tide. They tallied twice to knot the score and threatened to take the lead right up until the final buzzer. Two newcomers, the Brussels Connection of Ken Cousins and Brian Tenpas, played an outstanding game on the forward lines, ac- counting for all four Royal. goals. The Royals had six new faces in the line-up for this game and the inexperience showed during the early stages as most of the first half of the opening period was played in the Royal zone. After that the Royals found their skating legs, though, and got stronger and stronger as the game went , on. Coach Bill Kerr had the team checking well and not until 11:10 of the first period did Ripley break through for a power play goal luy Mike Pollock, assisted by Jamie Gallant. Two minutes later Wingham returned the favor with Cousins scoring the first of his two goals on the night, assisted by Randy Clarke and TenPas, while Rpiley's Paul Wilken was off for hooking. The Royals took the lead Howick Jrs. battle to tie Grand: Valley The Howick Juniors came from behind in the third period to gain a 7-7 tie with last year's league champion Grand Valley Harvesters in • OHA hockey action last week. The Harvesters tallied four times in the opening period, despite being outshot 20-12, to grab the early lead. They then put the puck past Kent Gibson early in the second period to increase their lead, and the period was over half gone before Rola Drost put Howick on the scoreboard, -connecting after a pass.from David Harding. Again Howick outshot the Harvesters 14-12, but trailed on the scoreboard 5-1. The third period saw Howick come out and do some hitting. Eight seconds into, the period, Mark Leslie tallied after taking a pass from Drost. Then John Mock, taking a pass from Doug Taylor, connected for Howick's third goal and, 42 -seconds later, Mock hit the spot , again after Scott Norman and Drost got him the puck: After a couple of fighting majors had been handed out, Grand Valley tallied to open up its lead again, and 52 seconds later the Harvesters scored again to - increase the lead. However Howick was not finished and the Juniors cameback and scored three more times before the game ended to earn the 7-7 tie. Harding, Norman and Leslie were the marksmen. Howick outshot Grand Valley by a 56-31 margin overall in the contest. Next home game for. the Juniors is this Sunday, Nov: 4, at 2 p.m. when they fake on Brussels. Howick minor hockey report An eight-d'etg hockey school has just been com- pleted by all minor hockey teams: Pre -Tyke, Novice, Atom, Pee Wee, Bantam, and Midget as well as Junior and Senior Ringette. The school was sponsored by the Howick Optimist Club with instruction under the capable hands of Don McKee from Kitchener and his assistants. Thanks was expressed to all members of the Howick Optimists for their interest in the minor sports program. WOAA Atom Hockey Last Friday the Atoms traveled to Mildmay for an exhibition game. This was their first game of the season. The Atoms got off to a successful start by defeating Mildmay 7-4. Philip Livermore led the Howick attack by scoring six goals; the other goalwas cored by Kyle Wheeler. Goaltending duties were shared by Darren Brown and Dennis Wintemute. The Atoms played another exhibition game at Clinton on Saturday. Clinton defeat- ed Howick 7-4 in a very close game. The score was tied 2-2 at the end of the second period, but there was plenty of goal - scoring in the third. Wheeler scored his first hat trick of the season with Livermore getting the other Howick goal. Brown and Wintemute tended the goal. Coaches for the season are Ron Livermore, Doug Hargrave, Wayne Stewart and the manager is Bill Wintemute. WOAA Pee WeeUoekey Howick Pee Wees traveled to Clinton on Saturday for their first game of the season. Howick came up with an excellent team effort and defeated Clinton by a score of 12-3. Many of the goals resulted from good passing plays. Robbie Van Den Broek and Philip Livermore led the attack, each getting a hat trick. Other Howick scorers were Oliver Tritton with two goals and an assist; Donald Livermore, one goal and one assist; Jason Douglas, a goal and an assist; Steve Gibson, one goal and two 'assists. Getting assists were Steven MacGregor and Jayson Potts with two and Jaret Henhoeffer, Andrew Weber and Jeremy Taylor each with one. Goaltending duties were shared by Peter Stewart and Mark Fraser. Coaches for the year are RoneLivermore, Paul Douglas and Stephen Tritton and the manager is Jerry Potts. midway through the second period as TenPas scored a power play goal, from Cousins and Dave Stephenson. The lea& proved short-lived, however, as Ripley roared back to even the score with Kevin Stewart's goal just 12 seconds later, and then took a 3-2 lead on Stewart's second of the night from Pollock and speedy Brian Regier. Starting the third trailing by a goal, Royal hopes seemed in evaporate when Ripley Captain Brent Arm- strong took advantage of a defensive lapse to put the puck behind Smith for a 4-2 lead in the opening minute of the period. Still the team refused to quit. TenPas' second goal six minutes into the period, from Cousins and Mark Foxton, made it 4-3 and then Cousins scored from Jim Kellar a couple of minutes later to make it 4-4. Both teams had their chances in the final half of the period, with the Royals in particular applying the pressure and coming close on several occasions, but had to settle for the tie. Coach Kerr and his assistants, former hard -rock defenceman Dennis Knox and Alex Henderson, should be pleased with the way the Royals played in this match against last year's top team in the league and parti- cularly with the play of their young defensive corps, with former Ironman Len Stamper providing a steady presence on the blueline. With several defencemen absent for the match, the coaches had Dave Burns playing on the blueline beside Ken Higgins, while Stamper was matched with veteran Tom Irwin and both pairs acquitted themselves well. ROYALS 7,EXETER 6 Fresh off their tie with Ripley on Friday, the Royals traveled to Exeter on Sunday and skated to a come -from - behind' 7:6" wi°n' over - the Mohawks. Captain Dave Stephenson led the Royals with two goals and two assists, including a short-handed ' goal on a breakaway in the second period which proved to be the turning point in the contest. Again . the special teams played well. Coach Bill Kerr attributed the win to the performance by the penalty- killers, who did not allow a power play goal by Exeter throughout the contest, while picking up one short-handed goal themselves. Wingham also scored twice on the power play. Exeter struck quickly at the start of the game, scoring a goal by Ed Willis in the first minute and adding markers by Brian Mercer and Dave Jackson to take a 3-0 lead by the 16:06 mark. Wingham regained some ground when Randy Clarke got the Royals on the scoreboard at 16:52, but went into the dressing room trailing by 3-1. Stephenson brought the Royals to within one 1:28 into the second period with a power play goal from Len Stamper and Pete Goodall while Willis sat out a penalty for playing with a broken stick. However Exeter's Randy Kraul got that one back a minute later to make it 4-2. Then, while the Royals were short-handed with Ken Fitzgerald in the box for cross-checking, Goodall sprung Stephenson loose on a- breakaway and the Wing - ham captain made no mis- take, putting the puck behind Steve Sararas. That goal inspired the Royals, who struck for two more to take a 5-4 lead, with Mark Foxton getting his first as a Royal from Ken Fitz- gerald and then setting up Dave Golley for the go-ahead goal on a power play. Willis brought Exeter back onto even terms with his second goal of the game at 13:47 to end the period tied at five. The Mohawks got onto the . board first in the third period, taking a 6-5 lead on a goal by Jackson at the 3:11 mark. That set the stage for yet another Wingham comeback, with Brian TenPas getting the equalizer from Stephenson at 9:35 of the period to set the stage. for Dave Burns' winning goal with less than two minutes to play,,gssiifste l b ,T,enlPas sad Ken Cousins. Again the Royals, who are showing a nice mix of youth and experience, proved they have the character to come from behind. The team now has three points in its first two games and seems likely to get even better as the season progresses. The next test comes Friday night when Teeswater comes to town for an 8:30 game and they visit Lucknow on Sunday.

The Royals fought back to gain a 4-4 tie.
