Clinton Senior :Girls were the
only successful team in four bas-
ketball games in Goderich. They
came out 00 top by a score of e6-
23. Both the boys teams' went
down to deafeat, the seniors by 31-
16 and the Juniors 24-7 while the
Junior Girls were submerged 39=17.
The senior girls piled up an 11
point lead by half time and seemed
on the way to an easy viettory. In
the second half with two regulars
sidelined by injuries the Goderich
girls took command and the Clin-
ton team had to fight hard to
d

stave off their on -rushing oppon-
ents.
pponents. Ruth Nivin was the top
point scorer for Goderich with
eight points while. Nancy Web-
ster's 17 points led the Clinton at-
tack.
Jtuiior Girls
The Junior Girls stayed within
range for the first half corningout
on' the short end of a 16-13. score.
In the second half: their defence
seemed to collapse with Goderich
outscoring Clinton 21-4.
Junior Beys
The Clinton boys tried hard but
they just couldn',stop the Goder-
ich threesome of McCullough, Bog-
ie' and Strachan. Goderich -had
too much experience for the
CDCI boys who have all but one
as first year men.
Senior Roys
Although the box score would
not seem to indicate it, this was a
close game until the latter part of
the third quarter. Three times
the CDCI Redmen tied the score
only to have Goderich surge ahead
again. , In this contest•as in the
Junior game it was largelya three-
rnan show as far as Goderich was
concerned. Dockstader, McPhee
and- Wilson scored all but four
of the ,Goderich points, Near the
end of the third quarter the Clin-
ton boys seemed to tire and from
that time until the final whistle
the Goderich quintet built up their
15 point margin of victory.
