Combines lead Series 2-1;
Return to Hensall Ice Saturday
Following a thrilling 7-4 vic-
tory on their home ice Tuesday
night, the 1-Iensall-Zurich Com-
bines took a one -game lead in
their best -of -seven series for the
Junior D group title. After
winning the first game of the
series on their own ice, the
Combines lost 10-4 in the sec-
ond game last Saturday night
in Strathroy.
The series now shifts back to
Strathroy for the fourth game
tonight, Thursday, and then the
fifth game will be played in
the Hensall Arena this Saturday
night. Sixth game, if necessary,
will be played in Strathroy next
Monday night, and if the series
goes to seven, it will be played
back in Hensall next Wednes-
day night.
Strathroy 10—Combines 4
Combines suffered a double
loss in the Saturday game at
Strathroy, 'losing the game and
also losing the services of high -
scoring forward Bruce Cooper,
who suffered a broken arm.
Cooper will be out for the bal-
ance of the season.
Strathroy went into an early
first period lead, as they regis-
tered four goals before the
Combines found the range. Bill
Shaddick scored for the Com-
bines with less than a minute
and a half to go in the first
session.
In the second period, the
Combines outscored Strathroy
3-2, with Bob Livermore, Steve
Kyle and Mike Cushmon each
blinking the red light once.
The big difference in the two
teams came in the third session,
when Strathroy completely dom-
inated the play, and scored four
unanswered goals.
A total of 25 penalties were
handed out in the game, with
13 of them going to the Rockets
and 12 to the Combines.
Combines 7—Strathroy 4
Playing before a large crowd
of hone fans .on Tuesday night,
the Combines turned in a real
come -from -behind e f f or t, as
they skated to 'a 7-4 victory .over
their bitter rivals.
Even though they were out-
scored in the first two periods
on Tuesday night, the Combines
held a slight edge on the play.
At the end of the first period,
the Rockets were leading 3-1,
and at the end of the second,
4-3. In the third period, how-
ever, it was the Combines all.
the way, as the scored four un-
answered goals.
Mike Cushman and Bill Shad -
dick were the big guns for the
Combines, as they scored two
goals each. Bob Livermore,
Craig Chapman and Steve Kyle
each blinked the red light once.
The third period, at times,
threatened to break out in a
real donnybrook as players on
both teams started to rough
things up a bit. A total of 23
penalties were handed out by
referees Gus Boussey and Lou
Heinbuck, with 13 of them go-
ing to the Rockets.
The game featured plenty, of
fast action, as the short-handed
Combines turned in one of their
best efforts of the season. The
forwards skated hard both ways,
and the defence cleared the
puck well. A number of stiff
body -checks were handed out
by Russ Klopp and Dale Turvey,
on the Combines' defence, and
this helped to slow down the
Strathroy attack.
At the close of the game a
number of Strathroy fans milled
around the referees' dressing
room, in an attempt to take out
their vengance on the officials,
A couple of policement on the
scene, however, squelched any

Duron County Tax 'ate Will
Remain at 14 Mills This Year
Goderich — The county tax
rate for this year will remain
at 14 mills — six for general
purposes and eight for roads
— if county council adopts
the budget presented at the
opening of March session by
clerk -treasurer John G. Berry.
The forecast a year ago was for
a rise of one mill to maintain
the road and bridge program,
but a larger -than -expected year-
end surplus was a factor in
avoiding the increase.
In 1963, there was withdrawn
from surplus funds $110,000,
and this was expected to pro-
duce a year-end surplus of $16,-
899 on a budget of $2,224,334,
largest ever for Huron, but at
end of the year there was a sur-
plus of $95,000.
ideas they may have had of
harming the officials.
Saturday night's game back
in Hensall will probably see the
bigges crowd of the season on
hand, as the rivalry will be get-
ting stronger after each game.
