INATED BY DURHAM
Off Night Largely Responsible For

Colts ,Bad Drubbing. D

Colts AWa Below Form
Y
After holding Durham to a tie in
two previous games, the Clinton Colts
faltered badly in the' third.. and decid-
ing, game .played iri Galt -last Thurs-
day :evening, when .the Durhamites
trouiiced them to.the•tune of 6 goals
to 2. It was considered by many the
most dismal effort put forthby. the
Colts this year, and in this we think
most of the.. team will agree, IV was
just one of those nights when noth-
ing could be done right, and they
were 'lucky to come off with the score
no more one-sidedthan it was.
It seemed a shame that the boys
would run into an off night like this
just when .they needed to be at their
best, and it sent a >; large following
away wondering what was wrong.
We have heard all kinds of 'stories,
the most prevalent being that it
looked' as though the boys threw the
game away. Thisis • a veryfoolish
notion, and one which we do not be-
lieve. With the winner almost sure
to meet . Acton, and the _ Colts with
the Stratford rink at their disposal,
and almost sure of a capacity crowd
with enthusiasm at its peak, it would
have been utter folly for them to do
such a thing. . No, they went down
trying hard, even if it was a -feeble
effort, and the fact that Durham. was
playing their best only made it look
that much . worse.
The Durham lads , were playing
like demons and with the Colts at
their best it is doubtful if they could
have held them,. although Dulham
Is certainly not 4 goals better than
the Colts. ` Failure to hold the first-
string forward line of Raybould,
Dean and Cassidy was largely the
cause of the locals bad night. These
three were just about tops both of-
fensively and defensively. Their de-
fence, too, was strong and about the
only chances the locals had all night
resulted in the twogoals they got.
Durham bad the upper hand most
of the night and forced most of the
play. They won the game entirely on
their merits and everyone gave them
their best wishes.
From the drop of the puck Ray-
bould raced in and tested Doak -with
a shot, the puck was cleared to cen-
tre ice, where they formed again,
and Cassidy broke into the clear on
a double pass .from Dean and Ray-
bould to give Doak no chance to save
only a minute and a half of the first
period had been played. Doak was
sent off for repairs when he and Cas-
sidy collided at the side of the net,
Cassidy' falling on his head, and the
result was a gash. He however'
soon returned. Durham went two
up at the 17 minute mark, when Ren-
nie went in alone for an easy one:
Raybould was sent off, but the locals
could not take advantage, due to ov-
er-anxionsness. Gibbs was offside
three times when they were going In
nicely, and before they could get go-
ing Raybould was on again. The bell
went with the score 2-0.
With three minutes of the second
gone, Durham -continued their victory
march when Cassidy picked up the
puck at centre' and split the defence 1,
wide open to go in on Doak for his
second goal. With the period about
half gone Ken. Pickett gave Clinton
their first of the two cheers they had
when he stickhandled his way in. on
Schutz for the first Clinton counter.
Durham served three penalties but
the Colts failed 'to take, advantage,
the Durhamites playing a •perfect de-
fencive game. The second period
ended 3-1.
Durham's last three goals ;came
largely through the fact that Clinton
was. playing four men up most of the
period, and they broke away. Mc-
Girr
cGirr scored a'nice one when he work-
ed out through the .locals and beat the
remaining defenceman. Cassidy' and
Raybould combined, Cassidy getting
his' .third goal . He was just about
the pick of the Durham outfit. Then'
R. McEwan scored for Clinton when
he rounded the Durham nets and
lifted the puck over the' prostrate
Schutz tato the goal. Rath got 5
minutes for throwing his stick and
Raybould followed shortly. With, the
Colts playing every nail up Dean
broke 'away to score the final goal 'of
the game, and the final score was
7 -penalties were handed out by
Referee Johnny Mitchell, 5 to Dur-
ham and 2 to Clinton.,
The, locals have nothing to regret-
and
egretand most fans,: when • they stop to
think, will agree that in the last two
seasons they have seen probably the
best hockey that has:ever,been play-
ed here, A group winner two years:
in a row, and last year advancing to

who are disciples of good. old Iseek:
Walton are already looking. forward
to the time when skies will clear, ice
'will disappear- and the' legal open
season for 'trout comes around. A
local fisherman had a letter the oth-

line man, in which the following ap-
peared:
"Was down to see them cutting a
steamer out of the ice the other day
so they could bring her to the 'p-
leading leg.•., The ice is near three
feet thick and as clear as a -bell and
has lots of little minnows frozen solid
inside. Wouldn't that be a good way
to keep bait fresh?" •
All local fishermen agree that this
story is clear cut,' on the square and
truthful, and are hoping for fresh
bait off the ice, when the season op-
ens, They agree that the following.
doesn't describe Harold " at alt,
though it may apply to some un-
named sportsmen:

and disturbeth the whole household.
