RIPLEY REDMEN TIE WINGFIAM The Ripley Redrnen in an exhibi- tion match on: Fiiday evening last at the Wingbam Arena, before the smallest crowd of the season, pulled out with a tie of 4-4 after having the lead all through the game. The heavy ice made fast playing imposs- ible while kicking the puck and loaf- ing were much in evidence. In the first period shortly after play commenced Wingham secured the first goal but were held score- less the balance of the period while the Rednten bulged' the net for three. The locals were the only ones to score in the second period. At the start of the third period the vis- itors scored again, giving them a 2 - goal lead. It was then that the lo- cal boys got down to business and for a few minutes had the Ripley goalie dizzy stopping shots, and be- fore time was called had tied up the score 4 -all. Only three penalties were handed out, Ripley getting them all, one go- ing to Ferris and the other two to Bowers. We seldom refer to the poor sportsmanship of any individ- ral player, and when one receives 2 penalties, serves about half of one and refuses to take the other, we o not believe much is necessary, it speaks for itself. The line-ups were: Wingham—Goal, L. Browne, def- ence, H. Mitchell, K. Somers; cen- tre, J. Brackenbury; wings, M. Rae, B. Fox; alternates, R. Rae, H, Browne, W. McDonald, W. Gurney. Ripley—Goal, M.
