The first two periods were ex- ceptionally fast and the score was almost even, but in the last period the Kincardine boys fell back and the Winghamites fairly walked away with them. Line-up: Winghaiii- Goal, Aitchison; de- fense, Cruikshank and Lockridge; centre, Howson; wings, Cantelon and Whitten; sub. Morden. Kincardine --Goal, Sauer; defense, Riggins and Hoeflin; centre, Bowers, wings, Ferris and Wilkinson; sub., Lockridge, Referee Frank Kelly of Listowel, The game in Kincardine was a tie and this is what the Kincardine Re- view has to say about the Wingham boys. "Tlie Wingham boys are a fine lot of players, being well balanced, young and aggressive, and show a good line of team work in their action: Aitcheson in goal, however must be credited with saving them from defeat, as the locals had three shots to their one on the nets, but he proved a veritable stone wall at all turns," The game on Monday evening at Wingham with Lucknow wasnot however of the fast and clean quality, It was one of the dirtest games ever witnessed and this was all 'because of the slackness on the part of the ref- eree, B. Whitmore of Harriston. Al- though he adorned the fence with several players we believe that Kelly of Listowel and others, would have made the boys play hockey. " In a fit of anger one of the Lucknow boys jumped on the referee and later when told to go. off for two minutes, swore at the referee. If' he had not been more good natured than the average man, Mr. Player would have been out of the game for the rest of the sea- son. The game ended a tie 5 to 5 and the players wisely decided to play the tie off another night. We understand that the play off of the tie between Kincardine and Wingham will be played in Kincar- dine some night very soon and it is very- likely that a special train will be run. The brand of hockey put on here on Thursday night is the kind that elevates this popular winter sport in the eyes of the public, ':i, The local curling bonspiel was wound up on -Saturday when Mr. Les.
