EC for the Colts while Dan Colquhoun, who was `flying" all night, scored once and assisted in three more to lead both teams in points. Approximately 300 fanswere amazed at the final rush of the "old-timers" in thefinal period. Expecting the Colts to fade badly as the. game progressed they sur- prised everyone by "finding their skating legs" and outscoring their younger opponents 5-2 in the final session. Bill German was the, big differ- ence between the two teams. He played a magnificent game in the nets, kicking out many a shot that seemed to be a certain goal. Dressing Room Rumours With the competitive, spirit surg- ing through their veins, and before the "after game stiffness" had started the Colts were clamouring for a return match. They were even threatening to protest on three counts: 1. The juveniles used an import" (Rick Elliott); 2. ,The juveniles used a goaltender who is Colt property; 3; Colt, players saw Manager "Red" Garon paying the referees. Whether the Colts have found anyone who will listen to their protest or whether the, return match will be replayed is a mystery. However, judging from the complaints that were heard on Monday it is quite,: probable that the "old-timers" will be content to. hang up their skates at least un- til next year. • Lions Juveniles: goal, Bill Ger- man; defence, Tom Colquhoun, Jack.

COWAN, Clerk, Londesboro 6-7_b Tenders For Gas; New Proposal Of Councillors Town Council proposes to call for tenders for the supplying „of gasoline to town vehicles for a three months period. Deputy Reeve Stanley stated his opinion, at Mon- day night's council meeting, that the present policy of buying gas- oline from each station for one month was no longer effective, since Clinton has 19 gas stations. Since it is not possible to buy from all of the garages in the year, those left out object to the situa- tion. • Both Reeve Crich and Coun. Ir- win agreed that the idea was worth a try and. the motion was passed. ° Coun. Knights stated his opinion that the theory was fine, but act- ually it'was rather unfair. He said that the garagemen in town, con- tribute', a great deal to the town in taxes, and they were the only businessmen that were asked to cut prices in providing goods to Funeral service was conducted yesterday for Mrs. Lillian Carter', r, 77, who died on Monday. in Chat- ham Hospital.

Accident Occurs - In Snowstorm Reeve Crich answered that the town° could put in tanks and .pro- vide its own gasoline. Coun. Knights questioned the wisdom. of therea shrinkage of this since was g one percent as well as the possibil- ity that some of the gas -might never reach the tanks of the town vehicles. Provincial Constable Helmer Snell, Seaforth, said an accident early last week was due to blind- ing snowstorms. Damage was estimated at $90 when the cars driven by .
