THE IIOME PAPER
ANOTHER BIG WEEK
FOR CLINTON'S COLTS
Run Their String Of ' Victor-
ies To Six Straight For
Season
Last friday :evening before the
largest crowd of the season, theOlin-
ton Colts .won a veryclose decision
from the ea •
rth
S f e
4 Beavers on local
o al
ice, The score "i an indication of the
play and Seaforth has a team that
will take • some beating-. before the.
group is decided, but the Colts are
the team -that can do it, and they ful-
ly demonstrated bow it should be
done. There was a large following
or fans from Seaforth, also from
other neighbouring places.
The first period had been going but
a very few moments when the Sea -
forth goalie received a nasty shot
from the stick of "Red" Rath, which
he tried to get with his chest, -but it
struck him in' the forehead. He 'retir-
ed for repairs. Later on in the game
Rath again shot and Doig again
shoved his face' in front of it, The
way he plays we wonder that he
don't get many of them, but he play-
ed a wonderful game;" and had it not
been for him the score would have
been much different, '
The only scores in the first period
were when Doug. Kennedy scored on
a nice rush and before the period end-
ed the score was tiled up by Hilde-
brand. The period was very excit-
ing and full of thrills.
When the second ' period was half
over Streets put the locals one up,
but Rennie tied the score in a few
moments. Rath then scored and be -
fere the period ended Hildebrand
made it 3-3. - -
Rath scared first in the third per-
iod. Regie tied it up, and a few
rnon-tents later he put the Beavers a-
head for the first time. Just before
the period ended Ken. Pickett pulled
the iron out of the fire when he scor-
ed the tieing counter, and the -game
went .into overtime.
'This was "where the Clinton boys
really showed their superiority.
'1 `hey bombarded the Beafortlt nets,
and but a few moments elapsed when
Streets scored on a pass from Pica
kett. Hen. Pickett hissed ,a royal
hence in the lest st two minutes, but
£or that matter every player gum--
ed
um.ed .up a few real chances. The fin:
al soore was 0-5 for the Colts.
The Colts deserved the win, they•
having twice as many real chances to!
score as Se"ltforth. It would not be'
fair to pick 'any one player, as they
ah played 'heads -up hockey,' and the
fans were well pleased with the
brand of hockey they dished up. We
heard several fans say that it equal-
led any amateur game theyhail ever
seen,
