It was the best genie turned by the Colts this year, and they rtainly looked like a different bunch players as they skated much faster an on any previous game and seem - to have their old fighting spirit ,ek' again. The game was chuck 11 of speed, close checking, and the easional bump. Altogether it was great game to watch and if the ys continue in this stride, they're tr-llig tomake it very uncomfortable , some of the teams who have been ing so strong so far.

'he first period opened with New mburg coming in close to be fol, ed by a quick break -away for iton, which ended up at the New nburg goal. Play flashed back forth, and after about five min - s, • Ross McEwan skated in on and with nothing to do but tuck it safely in the nets, he hit the goal post; it was a nice play, but the pro, verbial bit of tough luck ,intervened..

Streets, who was tearing around like nobody's business, rushed in and on a pass froni Kennedy,. beat Ham- mel for the first geel of the game, New Hamburg tried hard and were in close several times, but the Clinton defence held and with Geo. Elliott in the nets it was a man's -sized job to score, Ken. Pickett put the homey eters two up when the kid line. got the old combination going and skat- ing through, Pickett took a pass from the corner and back -handed one, which Hammel failed to handle, it bouncing into the nets and the per- iod ended 2-0 for Clinton:a Penalties: J. Elliott, F. McEwan, Hubbert, In the second period play was fair- ly evenly divided, with both goal tenders getting plenty of work. New Hamburg pressed hard but Clinton was back -checking perfectly ' and time after time broke up rushes, and breaking fast would go down only to miss the pass, or be stopped by the New Hamburg defence. Kelso Street put the Colts 3 to the good when he scored his ,Second goal of the game. Pickett missed the nets once, but both he and Streets were playing great hockey, -as were all the rest of the boys. ' Near the end of the period New Hamburg scored their only goat, on a scramble in front . of the nets, when Elliott was sprawled out on the ice to one side of the nets, The per- iod ended 8-,1. Penalties: Pickett, Hubbert, Hammel, In the third period the visitors tried hard, ;but the Colts were toq good and besides shooting it down the ice, came close on several mar, sions when New Hamburg was play- ing four men up. Ken, Pickett scor- ed his second goal. when he broke a- way with only the goal tender to beat and scored the last goal of the game. Towards the last New Hamburg with- drew they goalie and put six men on the, ice but the bell rang to end the game. There were no penalties. The line up: New Hamburg: Goal, E.

Both sessions were fast and full of pep. Several trades and Ioans were indulged rim to strengthen the 'Senators, who have not made as good a showing as they should have, " Noteworthy among these so called deals is the presence of Dale in goal and "Riley" Johnson, formerly of the Leafs, and "Hack" Johnson, past member of the Cana - diens, on the forward line. earEirir Senators Beat Leafs 2-1 The rejuvenated ,Senators captain- ed by Combe, beat the Leafs 2-1 in a dose -fought battle, The Leafs drew first blood, scoring in the first per- iod on a nice pass, Cook to McClin- chey. One minute later Riley John- son bulged the twine for the Sena- tors acid tied the score. Hoy receiv- ed the only penalty of the period for a crosscheck on Holmes. The second period was uneventful, Combe and •Cook both drew penalties for too vigorous checking. The third frame waxed fast and furious wi'ih both teams, trying . to score. In the dying moments of the game Streets Shot a puck from a scramble behind the net. It deflect- ed in off Wilson's skate, just as the bell rang, giving the Senators the game 2-1, Lute -up: Senators: Goal, B, Dale; defence, Combe, McDougall; centre, Dixon; wings, Streets, Brown; alternates, C.

McDonald turned in a great game for the Maroons scor- ing three of the five goals. For the Canadiens Tib. Kennedy played a whale of a game, scoring three of the four goals they secured. Play was very exciting, particularly after Cudmore, assisted by Lever, scored the first goal and McDonald, tallied three times in the first period, mak- ing the score 4-0. Castle's men were not to be denied in the second period. Gliddon and Kennedy both beat Livermore, - in rapid succession. Hawkins broke in. to the scoring on a pretty effort to put the Maroons three goals up The Canadiens then turned on the heat resulting in Kennedy's two goalsand several times threatened to tie the. game, but such was not to be, Line-up:,, Maroons: Goal, Livermore; de- fence, Hawkins, Cudmore; centre, Lever; wings, Kel.

"IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE" You need to have a worthy pro., duct, of course, then advertise it well and steadily, nothing like sticking to it. In a letter received by The News - Record the other day from a nation- al advertiser, Salada Tea Co,, occur- red the following paragraph: "We believe you will be interested to learn that, owing in a Targe mea- sure to our advertising in the News - Record," sales in Clinton last year showed a considerable increase over 1982. We believe this is a splendid tribute to the excellence of our pro- duct and to the value of your news- paper as alt advertising medium" "STILL DOING THE SAME" In our "From Our Early Files" cuolnin on another page of this is- sue will be found a comment upon the rate at which the county print- ing had been taken by the Exeter Times, the then News -Record edi- tor remarking: "The Times will not receive a cent of profit for the greater part of the work". Evidently people who run print shops have learned nothing in the for- ty years for the rate at which the county printing was awarded this year is one at which no profit could possibly be made. It seems tc have ever been so. One might suppose that the County of Huron were a charitable institution, living upon donations ft'oni others, instead of be- ing one of the wealthiest counties it the province. But, of course if men are silly enough to take the work at such prices, -provided it is properly. clone, it would' be too much to expect the council to thrust more upon them.

SEES PROSPECTS The sporting page of The Strat, ford Beacon Herald on Monday ran a cut of Ellwood Campbell, a Clinton boy who is playing hockey with the Stratford Midgets this year. On the same page appeared the following comment upon the ;Clinton team, by ;Thick," who, by the way, refereed 'the game here on Friday ev- ening last: "And after witnessing the ganie in Clinton on Friday night we are con- vinced that Seaforth and New Ham- burg "are not the only teams in that group favored to win the group hon ors.' Judging the Clintonites on their showing on Friday night it isa source of wonder that this was their, first victory of the season. Clinton officials blame this ' on the - soft ice which they had for their other games. `Punch' .MeEwan, a member of the Stratford Indians for three years, is now playing for his home town club at Clinton, and is just about their best performer. He has a kid broth- er who should develop into a smart puck -chaser before very long." "Timmer" McEwan is a smart one LITTLE LOCALS The Clinton Colts play in Sea. forth this evening.
