I I ,W NS " CLINTON'S LEADING -STYLE SHOPPE " Members Of Council Guests At Lions Club The regular meeting of the Clin- ton Lions Club was held on Monday evening in. the Parish Hall of ' St. Paul's .clrurch,'"and the mayor and isereber's of council were present as guestsof the Club. The speaker for the evening was Mr. McPherson, of the Department of Highways, who gave ;t very interesting and instruc- tive talk on Safety. He told of the various ways by which the mounting traffic toll could be reduced. He said, "The govern- ment is designing and building the highways for greater safety, car manufacturers are -,building -ears for greater` safety, and it remains with the drivers and pedestrians to exer- cise more, care, courtesy and com- monsense for the safety and saving of human life." The club are pleased with the pro grecs of the juvenile hockey team which they are sponsoring . as the boys are giving a good account of themselves. They defeated Mitchell • in that town on Wednesday last,; al- so Seaforth at Seaforth on Thursday. The brand o£ hockey these boys are playing is in some respects superior to the Colts. Their combination play is nice to watch rand they are a dif- ficult team to defeat. . All of which presents a rosy picture for a continu ante of good hockey in Clinton. Clinton Scouts 7-Goderich 1 The Clinton Scouts went to Gode- rich on Tuesday evening for a game of hockey and took the Goderich Scouts into camp to the tune of 7-1. Rolf. Monteith with 3, Harry Me - law 2, Ken. Miller and Doug. Mc - !Kenzie with one each were the goal - getters for uuncora» nawever the lee was very soft with some Water on and, it usually took many playsto. get the puck into the net, so that all th.e boys did their share towards the actual goal scoring. The other Clin- ton; iilayers were Tom Steep, Goal', Doug. Barttliff, Frank Clancy, gamy hats, Bill Counter, and Ken Colqu- houn. Members of the Lions Club furnished enoughcars so that all the members of the Scout troop were able to make the trip up. In all the games played by the Scouts and Juveniles this year the Clinton boys have shown themselves to be much superior in tears play. More than once the remark has been heard in Mitchell, Seaforth and Gode- rich "Why those kids play exactly the style of the Colts, Clinton doesn't need to worry about hockey players for a few years." If the weatherman favors with good ice the Goderich Scouts will play a return game and promise to make' things really hot for the Clin- ton kids. Little Locals Miss Evelyn Lever was chosen Queen of the Carnival in Goderich on Friday evening. ' Mr. James Vincent moved his pear - sessions. to his new home on Princess street this. week. The Ladies' Guild of St. Paul's Church held a°very successful supper on Shrove Tuesday. The• regular 'monthly meeting of the Legion Auxiliary will be held in the Legion Hall on Wednesday, March 9th.

March came in like a 1rb, sliding in on the tail of a sharpy cold snap. The question is, will it go out like a Scutt, Frank Lawson, Buddy Schoen- lion? THE LAST ROUND' -UP FOR OUR, COLTS Tavistock Wins The Group The bottom dropped right out of the old hockey kettle last night as farasClintonisconcerned,when n. in the Stratford arena, before a crowd' estimated at 2,000 wildly cheer- ing and excited fans, the Clinton Colts passed from the picture by a score of 5 to 3 to .the Tavistock Greenshirts. The game was the third and deciding game of the play-offs,. the teams previously having each Won on their own ice by the margin of two goals. Time does not permit • of us going into detail on the game, maybe its just as well, as we imagine anyone who saw the game will be trying to put it out of their mind this morning anyway. The Colts had leads of 2-0 and 3-2 at different stages but could not hold onto the advantage. The first period ended 1 to 0 for Clinton and the Colts had a nice mar- gin in territorial play in this period, Frank MhEwan hoisted the puck past Strohm on a pass. from "Punch." for the only counter. The Colts went two • un shortly after the beginning of the second frame, but before the period ran out the Greenshirts had tied it up, and on several occasions threatened to take the 'lead. The Colts- too had their tough breaks in.this period. In the last disastrous canto, only eight minutes remained to play when Clinton shot into a 3-2 lead, and ev- ery thing looked rosy for the home- sters. but as the big clock ticked off the minutes, and with only about six minutes remaining Tavistock tied it up. In less than a minute "Smokey" Harris was steaming in on Doak with only Foster to stop him. 'Bonnie" stopped him, but in so doing got him- self a penalty, and this was the turn- ing point of the game. The Green - shirts worked like Beavers and were rewarded when their power play clicked ;and they shot into the lead for the first time. Just to clinch matters they repeated the effort se- conds later to go two goals in front and it was all over. Tho Tavistock band whooped it up and players and fans were over-, joyed to see their heroes come out ahead, and we would like to extend our best wishes for the future suc- cess. of the Greenshirts. They were considered the underdogs throughout the season, and our best wish is now that they may go on and win the championship. It is understood that theywillmeett Queens the Chatham in the next round. That is the same team the Colts nut out last year. The Colts missed Kelso Streets last night, and Frank McEwan was called on to do double duty along the left, boards. In our opinion "Timmer" played one of the best games of his career, For Tavistock "Smokey" Harris centre ice star, was outstanding. "Smokey's" playing just about awned the tide of victory in favor of his team.' COLTS WIN SECOND GAME 3-1 ROUND TIED AT 7 -ALT. On the night's play the Colts inay have deserved a better break than they got, but the best they could do was overcome the Greenshirts' two - goal lead, and tie the score on the round, ni the second of the home -and - home games 'played at the local arena. on Friday night last: The Colts car- ried the play for almost" the entire 60 minutes, except when penalties forced them. back on the defensive. The two teams were very evenly matched, and iTavistocic tried hard to protect their two goal advantage. Penalties were numerous, 15 in all being handed out, 8' to Tavistock and 7 to Clinton, and these frequent trips to the cooler had both teams in hot water much, of. the time. Many complaints were voiced dur- ing and after. the game about the ref- ereeing job done by Charlie Talbot. Certainly it did seem that there. was room for considerable improvement on his part. One thing is certain, the Colts didn't get any breaks in the first two games from the referee, or Lady Luck either. A goal by "Bonnie'' Foster in the first period and one by "Timmer" McEwan in the second netted the score on the round, and things began to looks 'rosy for the Colts as`they charged in an Strahm's citadel time after time and it seemed that surely they; would get a break an one of these' sallies but in the third period Harris threw a scare into home fans when ho drilled one from close in past Doak to put the Greenshirts one ahead. "Timmer" McEwan came to the rescue a few minutes later and sank the equalizer behind Strohm and neither teams could break the deadlock, so evenly were they match - (Continued. on page 4).
