Legion Hockey
Playoffs Start
Last Saturday saw the start
of 'the playoffs in the Legion
hockey. There was to be a game
in 'bo'th the "A" 'Group and "B"
Group, but. due to a Bantam
tournament held in . Wingham,
the game in "A" had to the call-
ed •off. These two teams will
play a sudden death game this
.Saturday.
There was plenty of action in
the "B" Group however, with
Tam Dick's Canadiens ,coming
.ant on top by a score of 9 to 1
over Ted Lamont's Bruins. The
Bruins were missing one of their
better players, Kenny McIlwain,
who was in the hospital. (Ken
will •also he missed on the Pee -
Wee team that is going to God -
midi). Jim Dick was the big gun
for 'Canadiens with 5 goals, Geo.
Brown got 2 with singles going
to John Patterson and Tom Dick,
Ted Lamont got the only goal
for Bruins. Terry Ast played a
great game in goal for 'Bruins,
and if it hadn't been for him the
score would have been much
greater.
