Rockers split weekend action By Fraser Strong The Wingham Oldtimers„ Rockers clnb-saw action last Saturday and Sunday and split those games, winning 3- 2 over Palmerston, but landing on the bottom end of a- 3-2 count to Hanover. In a game played in the Wingham arena last Saturday, Hanover came out flying with an effort to avenge a previous loss to the Rockers. On the other hand, Wingham seemed listless and heavy-footed with only occasional flashes of offence in the game. Hanover's Arthur opened the scoring one minute and 45 seconds into the first period when he was set up in the slot by Graham. Three minutes later, Rob Laurie of the Rockers picked up the puck near centre -ice, maneuvered around 'two players, slid the puck through the legs of a third, , then slid a pass out to Wayne Brown who deposited the disc behind :the Hanover goalie. The second period saw only one goal; that one going to Hanover at . 3:07. Wingham's defence stood up well, anchored by a stellar out one of- their best per- formances•of the season. It was like going from night to day as the Rockers units cred many loose pucks and 'finally a goal .off the blade of Laurie on passes from George Skinn and John Cullen at 7:12. However, Hanover refused to die and regained a one - goal lead with six minutes left in the game. Wingham pressed hard for the remainder of the game, but , couldn't get the equalizer. In Palmerston Sunday night, the majority of the Wingham team showed fatigue from the previous:,_ night's game and its "after - game festivities". Although the Rockers managed to beat Palmerston' 3-2, it was largely a slow-moving affair with many missed passes and mental errors. Dave Magee opened the scoring for Wingham after a fine effort and 'a pass from Len Houghton. Palmerston tied the score before the end of the first period. • the Rockers went ahead 2- 1 in the second period on a play from.
