COLTS VICTORIOUS' IN HARD, -FOUGHT GAME' Juniors Have Lost Two Clinton , Colts defeated Tavistock 8 to 3 in a rough and tumble game at the rink on Tuesday night. The gaii2e was the first home fixture of the schedule for the locals. The game had everything from fist fights to some good hockey. In the first two periods both teams went through warming -up exercises and is the third period everything, blew up, and out of a total o£ ten pen- alties, seven carne in this period. A fist fight between Foster and Hubert started things Lolling• and everybody piled in, but the mess was cleared up with Foster and Hubert getting five minute penalties, Shortly afterwards an excited fan rapped Harris, Tavi- stock centre man, aver the head with a broom,and the Tavistock players demanded some police protection. All this greatly added to the excitement for the fans. To get down to hockey, Hubert and Streets started things off with a pen- alty each and Matthies of Tavistock also got. one. After ten minutes of rather ragged pray, "Bonnie" I ostex , the little pepper -pot of the Colts, scored his first goal of the game. F. McEwan and R. McEwan got assists. Four minutes later DonMclCay put Clinton two up on a pass from P. Me - Ewan Abouta minute mnnte later, Hu- bert, stalky Tavistock ceman defer pumped his way up the ice and scor- ed alone for Tavistock. The period ran out with the score 2-1. Il MANY MARKED AS LOW.

All members are request- ed to attend. Several of our out-of-town sub- scribers have asked us to send calen- dars, We are sorry that we cannot comply with their wishes. This year we oinitted to order calendars. With one minute gone in the second Foster and Johnston combined for the first goal of the period. "Riley" laid a nice pass across to "Bonnie" and he scored his second goal. Then Vogt of Tavistock scored •on a nice effort, to be followed by Hubert with his se- cond goal, to tie the score. Johnston and Foster again came through, "Ril- ey" taking "Bonnie's" pass:to put the Colts ahead again. Then Stephenson scored from Ricket and Streets, on a very nice bit of combination play. At the 18 minute mark ` F. McEwan scored on a pass from Foster. The period rang. out with the score 0-3. After 3 minutes of the third period had gone, Streets and Pickett slipped through for Clinton's seventh goal, Streets scoring on Pickett's pass. F. McEwan wound up the scoring a min- ute later when he took a pass from "Red" Rath. then carie the fun, and hockey was forgotten as the lads nib: - ed into one another in great style. For the rest of the period the teams spent their time in fighting and go- ing and corning from the penalty box, and the bell rang with the final score 8 to 3 for Clinton. F. McEwan and "Bonnie" Foster, goals 2 an d two assists led the scorers. The very creditable showing of "Riley" Johnston with a goal.. and an assist was well received by the fans. It would hardly be fair to pick a star from *song the Colts as they all played very well. We think that lack of some good steady' practice is very evident among, them and now that the holidays are over they will no doubt get down to business. For Tavistock Hubert and Harris stood out.
