Both teams had several good scoring chances in the first period, but the goalies at both ends of the pond stole the show with brilliant saves. The only goal of the period was a power play effort as Jay MacLaurin fed Jim McGee breaking from the corner and his quick back- hander caught the upper corner to send the Royals to the dressing room ahead 1-0 after 20 minutes. In the second, it was Tara's turn to score with the man advantage, as Sheldon McLeod was left alone on the edgeof the crease and an the third try banged the puck across the line to even the count with the lone tally of the period. Heading into the third, it was anyone's game. At 5:08 Tara surged into the lead as Gordon Laver threaded a screened shot. into the upper left corner of the netting. - McGee, with his second of the game, evened the count at 8:35 with Rick MacLennan and Rick Jacklin assisting. At 12:21 on the power play, Randy Clarke capitalized on BRUSSELS OPTIMIST CLUB VEGAS NIGHT Fri.

Goals by Clarke and Dennis Knox added sweet icing to the 5-2 victory. WHISTLE STOPS — Just prior to game time it looked like this would be no game as Tara arrived at the corner of Victoria and Diagonal sans goalie and sans goalie equipment. Tara forward Bruce Stark donned Royal goalie Rick Smith's pads and skates and the game got underway. For two periods, with the assistance of wide goalposts and missed Royal scoring chances, Stark certainly kept Tara in the game. At the other end, Hugh Nichol was back in rare form, playing the angles with positioned authority and a quick glove or dartingpad to rob the Tara attackers time and time again as the tried to cyclone his cord cottage. Good game, Hughie. On the attack, Jim McGee was a shining star with a pair of big goals — a just reward for hard work every time he hit the ice. There was a bit of humor in the second period as Royal pressure had. goalie Stark just a -sweating when a teammate came to his rescue by not only purposely lifting the net off the posts but tipping it right over onto the ice. Stark could be seen wiping the sweat from his brow as the net upsetter got a two -minute sit in the sin bin for his efforts. One of Tara's point men was carried from the ice on a stretcher in the third period with a twisted knee. It is to be hoped it was nothing serious. The Royals lost the serv- ices for their game Sunday at Lion's Head of Tom Irwin, with -.a five-minute spearing penalty. Rick Jacklin also drew a five-minute high - sticking call at game's end. The Royals will host Teeswater this Sunday 'af- ternoon at 2:30 in what should be a good game.

Burns and Dave Stephenson gave the Royals a 4-0 lead at the end of the first period. Wingham raised the count to 6-0 in the second.

Lion's Head hit the ice in the third with a roar and four quick goals — three of the power play type — put them Optimist Tykes lose to Wallace The Wingham Optimist Tykes traveled to Kurtzville last Saturday . to play the Wallace Optimist Tykes. Even though the Wingham lads gave it their best, they were not able to penetrate the Wallace defense. The final score read Wallace, 2, Wingham, 0, The Wingham shooters fought hard to force the play to the Wallace end, but were not given any skating room. Wingham's defense played a strong game and was responsible for breaking up several Wallace plays. Neither team got many shots on goal Both teams were evenly - matched and the Wingham boys look forward to meeting Wallace in the playoff round. Advance -Times defeats Staintons The Advance -Times con- tinued to play well last week and defeated Stainton 6-2 in Wingham Industrial Hockey play.

However the Royals, anxious for the win, rebounded with three goals, a pair by Sandy Fitzgerald and a single by Randy Clarke, to _wrap up a big 9-4 win.. WHISTLE`' STOPS — It was a big win for the Royals and winning in Lion's Head always makes the ride home seem much shorter. Sandy Fitzgerald had a big day with the hat trick, while Dennis Knox picked up a goal and three assists. Coach Kerr switched Rick Jacklin back to the blueline in this one where he played a whale of a game, especially killing penalties in the second period when he loggeth no less than seven minutes straight of ice time as the Royals ran into a rash of penalties.... Power play goals seemed to be in style in this game, with the Royals picking tip four and Lion's Head clicking for three. This was the last game on the road for the Royals, who have two more home games, one with Teeswater this Sunday at 2:30 and the other a postponed game against Lion's Head with the date and time still to be con- firmed.
