Wingham had won the opening game ofthe series 5- 2 Feb. 8 in Wingham, but lost the second 2-1 on Saturday in Seaforth. In game one, Paul Brophy led the Wingham team to victory by scoring two goals and adding one assist. Other Wingham goals came from Bill Kinahan, Jason Moore and Paul Edwards. Kinahan and Dave Heinmiller had two assists each. Murray Foxton played a strong game in net for Wingham, making several key saves early in the con- test. Game two of the best -of - three series was a dandy. The teams were tied 0-0 after one period. , Brett Martin gave Wingham the lead at Bantams lose The Wingham Kinsmen Bantams traveled to Seaforth last Tuesday night for the second game of the playoffs and lost 5-3. Jason Goodall scored the first goal of the game at 2:43, assisted by Jamie Robinson and Jeff Bloemberg. But the Wingham boys let down their guard and Seaforth came back with five goals before Goodall scored again, assisted by Billy Cameron and Murray Houghton. Then Jamie 7 Wall scored Wingham's final goal. The team came back strong in the third, but not soon enough to win the game. Greg Moore came up with some good saves in net to keep the score as close as it was. From the sidelines - The Bantams will have to play a full heads up game Saturday night to advance further into the OMHA playoffs. 5:17 of the second period on a beautiful setup from Brophy, who scooted down the left side of the ice, faked a slap - shot and slipped the puck between the skates of the Seaforth defenceman to Martin, who slapped it over the sprawling goaltender.. Seaforth's Terry Gray tied the score with only, 1:51 remaining in the second period. In the third, Gray notched his second of the night, a goal that stood up as the winning marker. The win for Seaforth meant a deciding game would be played at Wingham on Sunday. Again Wingham opened the scoring. At 7:06 of the first period Paul Brophy won a faceoff to the right of the Seaforth goal and slid the puck back to Jeff Pollard, who let go a slapshot that handcuffed Seaforth goalie Tony Van Loon. At the 11:44 mark of the second period, Joey Smith tied the game and, like the previous game, the two teams went to their dressing rooms tied after two periods. In the third, Smith scored his second of the game on a good shot from the short side of goaltender Murray Foxton. The goal stood up as Seaforth withstood several good chances by Wingham to preserve the victory. The hardworking Seaforth team now will meet Durham, with the winner of that series going against either Dresden or Forest. ICE CHIPS -An excellent crowd Sunday was treated to a fine hockey game with two evenly matched clubs.- Foxton again provided Wingham with excellent goaltending throughout the series. - The PeeWees will be play- ing an exhibition game against St. Lambert, Que- bec, March 25 at the arena. Game time is 8 p.m. The team ended the season with a record of 24-16-4. Wingham Tykes shut out Belmore Matthew Eimslie and Ryan Deyell shared goal- tending duties as the Wing - ham Tykes shut out Belmore 3-0 on Monday. They backed up the Wingham defence by clearing the puck and de- flecting hard shots. The first period saw fast, hard hockey in which Gavin Hodgins played his usual hard -driving game, keeping Belmore off balance. Mat- thew Hunter forced the .play into the Belmore end and seemed to be everywhere on the ice, controlling the play. Murray MacLeod and Jonathan Balzer backed up the play by clearing the puck and taking the play into Belmore's end. The period ended with a rough scramble around the Wingham net with the score 0-0. The Wingham boys played hard during ..the .second - period. Brad Hunter brought the local fans to their feet with his charges up the ice. Brendan Magee broke up Belmore's attack and cleared the puck. Todd Harrison cut off the op- position. The hard work paid off when Jonathan Lane scored for Wingham, assisted by Clemment Wai. Lane's shot from a seemingly impossible angle slipped behind the Belmore goalie. The third period had a lot of exciting action. Ivan Skinn stopped several hard drives; Andrew Forrest dug the puck away from the op- position and cleared it up the centre. Andrew Gibson continued to play a very strong game, stopping Belmore and leading Wingham attacks. At 12:38, Marc Poulin scored an unassisted goal for Wingham with a hard drive into Belmore's end. Barton Cameron and Mike Tiffin teamed up and, after several exciting plays, Cameron scored for Wingham, as- sisted by Tiffin, to make the final score 3-0. Duplicate Bridge play Norma Parker and Om.

The tournament begins Friday, March 18 and continues until the following weekend i arch-24:"Thefood:booth and feeding of the , players and rink rats and referees all are the responsibility of the Hockey Mothers. This is a big job which requires careful planning in order for it to run smoothly. It was decided the players would be fed hot dogs, donuts and milk. The ladies felt this fare apppeals to teenagers and is nutritious and con- venient. We plan to sell a meal of chili, cole slaw and a roll for a reasonable price at the booth, as well as donuts, chili by the cup and chili dogs along with the usual items. We hope to have tables in the warm room upstairs to encourage fans to remain at the arena and enjoy the hockey. The mother's auxiliary will be holding a spring draw at the tournament and selling tickets. One prize has been donated to date, but we would welcome other items as well because it would make a more interesting draw. If interested, call 357- 1565. A few helpers to sell tickets at the upstairs table during the tournament also are needed. You are guaranteed a warm job with the advantage of seeing good hockey. ',Other business included the announcement of the awards night which ten- tatively is set for April 16. Details will be announced at a future date. Mary Houghton discussed the possibility of buying a heater for the booth. It was mentioned how chilly it can be and the ladies decided to buy a heater and hope to have it operating soon. The executive will be housecleaning the booth March 7 in preparation for the tournamentand a meeting will be held then too. The auxiliary would ap- preciate any suggestions to make the food preparation run more smoothly. March 14 is the date of the next regular meeting at the town hall. Anja interested mothers are welcome. Hockey season is into the playoffs. Some teams do better than others, but remember the young men are doing their best and having fun. A parent'srayer has been posted on t1 booth door and we feel anyo ereading it has to realize how lucky we are as parents to have healthy, active children. If a child lives with encouragement he learns confidence and life will be better for all because children learn what they live, remember. Good luck to the players and parents in the playoffs. See you at the arena.
