Clinton Colts Ga Dawn
Hold Bridgeport
For Two Periods
By Laurie Colquhoun'
Clinton Coats fought the good
fight in Wa}tearttoo Arena Satur-
day evening, but atter holding
the powerful Bridgeport Vets off
the score sheet in the first period
and to a 2-1 lead at the end of
the second, they slumped in the
third and the Vets shoved in four
goals without reply.
Bridgeport thus won the third
straight game in the series 6-1,
and the right to oppose Graven-
hurst Indians in a four -of -seven
series for. the OHA Intermediate
"B" championship, The winners
had taken the first two matches
4-0 and 12-3.
Colts were far from disgraced.
They tore into the classy Vets
tooth and nail, but were just, not
good enough to oust the Bridge-
port collection of starts. For 35
minutes, they stayed right in the
fight, but then were forced to
give away in the face of superior
odds.
Bill Nediger did a real job in
the Clinton nets, and handled 48
Shots against 25 Looked after by
Bindernagei between the Bridge-
port posts.
Penalties totalled 13, five go -
mg to Colts and eight to Vets,
but the men advantage eight
times in the game did not help
Clinton get any goals. Vets play-
ed superb'Iy when shorthanded.
Clinton Scores

first period when neither side
could dent• the twine.
However, Clinton drew first
blood early in the second when
Clare Maltby, who was one of
Clinton's shining lights, took a
pass -out from a scramble in the
cornier during a Bridgeport gang-'
ing attack and o>.itslealted two
Bridgeport players on a break-
away for Colts only tally of the
match, one of four in the three
games. It was a beautiful effort
