The victory was a real come - from -behind effort for the Com- bines, as they trailed the series at one point, 3-2. In racking up their 5-4 win in the crucial seventh game at Hensall, the Combines had to come from behind in this game as well, as Strathroy held a one -goal advantage at two dif- ferent stages of the contest. Bob Livermore was the big gun for the locals, triggering two goals, while Bruce Cooper, Craig Chapman and Earl Wagner each tailed once. The fans were barely in their seats for the start of the game when Chapman sent the Com- bines into a one -goal lead, on an assist from Wagner, at the .35 second mark. Midway through the period Jim Bender registered the first Strathroy goal, to tie the score. At 17:10 a blushing Dale Turvey shot the puck into his own net behind Dennis Amacher, when he at- tempted to clear it out from �t•,rz srnmaei .. . =na.-. OR THIS beside the net. Despite continued pressure on the Strathroy net all through the second period, it was not until the 19:35 mark that Liver- more banged in a pass from Cooper and Mike Cushman, to again tie the score. After only two minutes were played in the third period, Ben- der scored his second goal for the Rockets, to shoot them into the lead again. About two min- utes later Livermaore found the range on a neat play with Coop- er and Cushman, to tie the score. At 13:50, with sheer de- termination showing on his face, Cooper took a pass from Cushman and slipped it behind Len Brown, in the Strathroy net. What turned out to be the winning goal was scored at 16:20, when Chapman and Shad - dick started off a play in their own end, and slipped the puck to Wagner, just past the Strath- roy blueline. The tricky wing- er pulled the goalie to one side of the net, and flipped the puck into the other side. Just 25 seconds later Cam Brady brought Strathroy back into contention when he scored on Amacher. With about two minutes left to go in the game Strathroy pulled their goalie in an attempt to score the equal- izer, and the strategy almost back -fired as it had in a previ- ous game, Chapman grabbed the puck at his own blueline and shot it for the Strathroy net, only to hit the goal -post. For the last two minutes the Combines hung desperately to preserve their victory and win the series. Throughout most of the game Combines held a decided edge in the play, but they were hav- ing trouble finishing off their plays around the net. On top of this, when they did break through they had to beat an outstanding g o a l i e in the Strathroy net. As the buzzer went to nark the end of the game hundreds of fans swarmed onto the ice to congratulate their favourites. It was a happy but tired group of players who finally made their way to the dressing room. In sharp contrast to the other games of the series, the contest was cleanly played throughout. Efficient refereeing by Jerry Olinski and Ed Malcheski, of Kitchener, kept both the play- ers and the fans well satisfied. Only 13 penalties, all minors, were handed out with five go- ing to the Combines and eight to the Rockets. 0 Bowling Scores 1AL�� EEKEND ONLY!! C { l' OKIES PEANUT AND PEANUT BUTTER ONLY des' REG.

Last Friday night at Brace - bridge, the locals trounced the Braves 8-1, and then back in Hensall on Monday night they rang up an impressive 7-2 score. Third game •of the series was played in Bracebridge last night (Wednesday) and the fourth game is scheduled for the Hen- sall Arena this Friday night. Game time will be 9 p.m. If a fifth game in the series is needed, it will be played on Sunday afternoon at Brace - bridge; a sixth game, if neces- sary, will be back in Hensall on Monday night, and a seventh game, if necessary, will be play- ed in Bracebridge the following Wednesday night. The winner .of this series will meet either Stoufville or Campbellford in the final round for the OHA title. Combines 7-Gravenhurst 2 Rick Stade was the big giant killer in the Monday night game at H e n s a 11, as he turned aside dozens of Gravenhurst scoring threats. Stade was re- placing Dennis Amacher, who was out with an injury, in the Combines' net, and played a sensational game, despite suf- fering a pulled leg muscle him- self early in the third period. With less than a minute left in the game, Stade collapsed on the ice from pain, but after a couple of minutes he got back on his feet and finished the game. 7 -Ann Wilson 4 - Florie Schilbe triple: Elaine Datars average: Elaine Datars B MIXED LEAGUE Wins 3 -Pearl Geiger 4e -Irene Frayne 2 - RoMayne Mc - 5 -Milt Dietz 4111116011111111111 STARLITE DRIVE-IN THEATRE NOW OPEN! caught fire, and aggressive young Bill Chipchase banged in a pass from Dale Turvey and Bob Hoffman. With only two minutes to go in the period, Shaddick converted a pass -out from Earl Wagner into a clean- cut goal, to give the locals a 21 lead at the end of the first session. Craig Chapman scored at 8:30 of the second period, to give the Combines a bigger edge, but midway through the session Corosky banged in a rebound for Gravenhurst. Both goals scored by Graven- hurst were no fault of the young star. On both occasions he stopped the first shot on a breakaway, only to have some- one bang in the rebound from close in, with the Combines' de- fence failing to cover up. The two- teams battled on even terms throughout the first 16 minutes of the first period, before Wickman finally found the range for the Braves. A minute later the Combines Imewm 611.

Craig Chapman and Bill Shad - dick each scored twice for the locals, while Chipchase, Cooper and Kyle added single markers. A total of 15 penalties were handed out in the game by ref- erees Frank Slota and Ed Mal- cheski, with the Combines pick- ing up nine of them. Combines 8-Gravenhurst 1 Playing up in Bracebridge last Friday night, the Combines chalked up an easy 8.1 victory in the first game of the series. The score was tied 1-1 at the end of the first period, but the Combines carne on strong in the second and added four unan- swered goals. They banged in three more in the third with- out allowing the hone team to score once. Dale Turvey shot the Com- bines into a lead at the 5:15 mark of the first period, when he let go a sizzler from the point while Gravenhurst was shorthanded. Two minutes later Brian Williams scored the lone goal of the game for the Braves when he beat Amacher while Kyle was sitting out •a hooking penalty. Throughout the period the Combines held a decided edge on the play, and they missed several scoring oppor- tunities while Gravenhurst was short-handed. The second period was less than a minute old when Bob Livermore banged in a pass -out from Mike Cushman, picking the top left corner. At the 11 - minute mark Livermore scored his second goal of the game, when he flipped in a pass from linemates Bruce Cooper and Cushman. The nicest goal of the game came at the 12:10 mark, when Cooper grabbed the puck in his own end and stick - handled his way through the entire Gravenhurst team. Bob Hoffman, playing on a newly - formed line with Dennis Mor- risey and Bill Chipchase, finish- ed off the scoring in the second when he scored unassisted from a scramble in front of the Gravenhurst net. At 1:15 of the third period, Wagner flipped out a pass from behind the Braves net, and laid it on Shaddick's stick, who in turn made no mistake in pick- ing the corner of the net he wanted, While Gravenhurst was shorthanded at the 14:00 min- ute mark, Craig Chapman bang- ed at the puck while he was on his knees, in front of the Braves net, and beat Mortimer with a flip to the top left-hand corner. With less than a minute left to play and Gravenhurst again short-handed, Wagner picked up a beautiful pass from Chapman, and easily pulled the goalie out of position to score.

Krainik Amacher, in the Combines' net, made a number of brilliant saves throughout the game, especially in the third period when the Gravenhurst six were pressing hard for another goal. Only eight minor penalties were handed out in the game, with each team drawing four. Earl Wagner was tagged with a misconduct in the second peri- od, when he took offence to a call made by referee Danny Poland, of Bracebridge. All Gravenhurst home games in the series will be played in the Bracebridge Arena, due to the lack of ice at home. The Bracebridge arena is a beauti- ful building, with seating capac- ity for almost 3,000 fans. About 500 attended the game. 16 OZ TINS D UPwith these WONDERFUL 41000 BUYS! Carnation Evapor.
