In the first period the game was very close, with the Ironmen up by two goals going, into the dressing room. There were seven minor penalties in the period, none of which led tiny scoring, The game became chippy in the second period, resulting in the ejection of two Fergus players. A total of 106 minutes in penalties was assessed in the' game, 34 for the lawmen and 72 to the Green Machine. Dale Morrison opened the scoring for Fergus at the 6:45 mark of the first period when he broke in on a two -on -one. Both defencemen tried to take out Paul Gear, who then passed to Morrison and Morrison fired the shot home for the .score. Late in the period the Ironmen got untracked and counted three goals in a two and a half minute span to take a 3-1 lead into the dressing room. Bernie Haines. poked in the rebound of a shot, by Jim McGee to tie the score at one apiece at 16:23. Twelve seconds later McGee scored a picture goal as he made a neat move around a defenceman, faked the goalie to the ice and backhanded the puck past him. Jim Blackwell made it 3-1 when he carried the puck over the blueline and blasted a quick shot to goaltender Johnson's glove side, surprising '\ him on the play. In the second period the powerplay units took over and at the 2:56 mark Bernie Haines scored when he drilled a shot from the blueline through a maze of players. Ed Haines had taken a shot from the other point and when the rebound went wide � Ironmen run streak to nine with win over Southampton The Wingham lawmen ex- tended their unbeaten streak to nine games as they swmaped the Southampton Mariners ' 9-1 in Southampton Friday night. This appeared to be the best game the team has played to date. The Ironmen displayed tight checking which inhibited the . Mariner attack and from the outset displayed a very con- trolled, disciplined game, making very few mistakes. Scott Wheeler led the Ironmen attack with two goals and one assist as the Ironmen fired a hail of shots at the hapless goalten- der. If Mariner goalie Ken Dousette had received any help from his defence he could have had a shutout, however he seldom had anyone backing Flim up as Ironmen completely controlled the play. , Dousette kept the Ironmen off the scoresheet until the 7:04 mark of the first period, when Wheeler took a pass from Rick MacLennan and , moved across the Mariner blueline in a two -on - one break. With the defenceman backing up, he fired a shot from the right faceoff circle, beating Dousette to the glove side. Forty two seconds later Jim McGee "increased the lead when he scored after carrying the puck behind the net. He moved out in front and, after Dousette made the initial save, slapped in his own rebound. The score after 20 minutes of play was Ironmen. two, Mariners no score. In the second period them Ironen struck for four more goals as they continued to take the game away from the Mariners. Dave Kieffer made it 3-0 when Tom Graham won a 'faceoff deep in Mariner territory and Kieffer drilled the puck past Dousette. The Ironmen clicked with two quick goals in a 31. ;,second span. Gord Kinahan was just returning to play after serving a two minute minor when he stole the puck at the Mariner blueline and blasted a shot past Dousette. Then it was Wheeler's turn, as he redirected a shot by Dale Whitfield. At the 16 minute mark Bernie Haines scored on the powerplay when Ed Haines fired a shot from the left point that went ,wide to the corner. The puck came back to the right point where Bernie` picked it up, moved to the right corner maneuvering around a defenceman and beat Dousette with a quick shot to the 'short side. The period ended with the Ironmen up 6-0. In the early stages of the third :.period Dousette`was .able to keep d the Ironmen off the scoresheet, but as they continued to press their efforts paid off. Ed Haines scored at the nine minute mark when he -fired a hard, rising shot that flipped out of Dousette's • glove and into the net. This was' ;perhaps the only goal Dousette-" could be: faulted on, as he did everything but stand on his head' to keep his team in' the 'game. However they weren't up to the grade and no matter what he did he 'couldn't win the game by himself. The Ironmen scored two late goals on powerplays as the game wound down. Jim Blackwell fired a wrist shot from the slot to make the score 8-0 at 15:04 and at 18:00' Randy Alton scored with a shot that was almost an instant replay of the Blackwell goal. With just over a minute remaining Mike Huber broke through the Ironmen defence and ripped a quick wrist shot through Steve DeJong's pads to spoil his shutout. DeJorlg put in a solid per- formance in net for the Ironmen: Althoughhe wasn't overly busy he was forced to make a number of key saves early in the game when the score was much closer. He made a great glove save in the second period`when the score was 3-0 as he stopped Huber, who broke in alone. The offence counted four powerplay goals on six man - advantage opportunities and the defence gave up no goals on seven man -short situations. Juves split series against Kincardine The Wingham Juvenile hockey team visited Kincardine Saturday night and suffered a 4-2 loss to the hard-hitting Kin- cardine team. However that defeat was avenged with a 5-2 win over that same team in a return match here Sunday. There was no scoring in Saturday night's game until the second period, with good goaltending at both ends. Kin- cardine's Rodger Campbell opened the scoring with a minute and a half remaining in' the second and the period ended with that team up 1-0. Ed Haines evened the score for Wingham at 10:45 of the third period, but Kincardine stormed back with three goals to wrap up the game. Haines scored his second goal of the night with just 50 seconds left in the game. Sunday evening Kincardine came . to Wingham and the local boys were ready. Stan Stapleton opened the scoring for Wingham, assisted by Murray Gardner. John Lawrence tied the game for Kincardine two minutes later and the first period ended in a 1-1 deadlock. Mark Passmore scored the only goal of the second period to put Wingham up 2-1. Kincardine tied the game again at 11:25 of the third, but the hometown boys bounced back with goals by Tom McLean, Passmore and Kevin Carter to make the final score 5-2 for Wingham. The next home game for the team will be this Sunday, Dec. 3, when the Ripley Juveniles come to town. ,.,.,gym .•�>��.�r.r FIFTH GOAL—Scott Wheeler, 14, got the Wingham Junior D Ironmen's fifth goal Friday night in a 9-1 win over Southampton.

Blackwell carried the puck over the line and, as the first defender took him out; he passed to Graham. The second defenceman moved for him and, as he did, Graham 'passed off to McGee who fired a wrist shot past Johnson. At 16:01 Gear pulled the Green Machine to within three as he fired a quick shot that beat Taylor up high.

The r girls played well but just ran out of _steam in the third period and Huron Park took the advantage and scored to win the game 2-1.
