Zurich Flyers Lose Series to Crediton
The Zurich Flyers, after win-
ning the WOAA Intermediate D
championship, lost out to Cred-
iton Tigers, the WOAA Inter-
mediate 0 champs, in three
straight games for tiie grand
championship of the WOAA.
The first game ended in a '7-3
score; the second game was 7-
5 and in the third contest the
Tigers came from behind and
defeated the Flyers 7-6.
All games in the best -of -
five series were played in the
Huron Park Arena, and attrac-
ted a large following of loyal
fans. The three games were
played on Wednesday, Friday
and Sunday night.
CREDITON 7 - ZURICH 3
The first game of the series
resulted in the easiest victory
there was for Crediton, as they
took a 2-1 lead in the first per-
iod, increased it to 3-1 in the
second and then added four
more to their total in the th-
ird.
Bob Carlile opened the scor-
ing for Zurich in the first per-
iod, when he banged in a pass
from Pete Postill at the five-
minute mark. Before the per-
iod ended, however, Fred
Lamb and Bob Pinter had flash
ed the red light for Crediton.
Paul Young scored the only
goal of the second period for
Crediton at the 7.45 mark, al-
though both teams missed
many good scoring opportunit-
ies.
In the third session, quick
goals by Ed Daer and Earl
Wagner brought the Flyers
right back into contention as
they tied the score at 3-3. Be-
fore the period ended , in the
last ten minutes of the game,
Crediton came up with four
big goals by Lamb, Young,
Pinter and Gary Hayter, to
salt away a 7-3 victory.
Four penalties were called
in the game, with each team
drawing two.
Zurich was bolstered for the
series by four players from the
Blyth Merchants, a team whict
they had eliminated earlier in
the season. The four were Ed
Daer, Ken Lee, Ken Daer and
Leo Boyd, along,.with goal -
tender Lorne Daer, who re-
placed injured Paul Steckle in
the Zurich net.
CREDITON 7 - ZURICH 5
On Friday night it was a dif-
ferent story as Zurich led the
game on various occasions,
only to lose out in the final
four minutes of play. Through-
out most of the game it was a
see -saw affair as either team
went ahead and the other tied
the score again.
First period goals by Jim
Pfaff and Leo Boyd gave Zur-
ich an early 2-1 lead, while
Terry Bourne registered for
Crediton. But in the second
the Tigers carne on strong and
Dennis Morrisey tied the score
at 2-2. Bob Carlile gave
Zurich another temporary lead
only to have CSaig Chapman
score the equalizer for the Cre•
diton crew. Bill Hoffman then
shot the Tigers into the lead
for the first time when he
scored at 8.25. Before the per-
iod ended Ken Lee beatTom
Glavin in the Crediton net on
a short low shot to tie the
score at 4-4.
After Bill Chipchase gave
Crediton a 5-4 lead early in
the third, Bob Johnston roared
back with a goal for Zurich to
tie the score at 5-5. With less
than four minutes left to play
Paul Young scored the winning
goal for Crediton, and then
with just 10 seconds left in the
easranannusacemassawanmenscomeammasasmwesemnaspeamteesms
game Terry Bourne added an
insurance marker.
Only four penalties were
called in the fast, well -play-
ed game with each team pick-
ing up two.
CREDITON 7 - ZURICH 6
On Sunday night the Zurich
crew blew an early 5-0 lead
in the first period, and ended
up on the short end of a 7-6
score.For the first 19 minutes
of the game it seemed the
Flyers could do nothing wrong
as they pumped five goals by
a bewildered Tom Glavin in
the Crediton net. With less
than a minute to go, Bill Chip
chase was given credit for a
goal which trickled into the
net behind Lorne Daer, after
it hit his stick.
The only two goals of the
second period were scored by
Dennis Morrissey and Craig
Chapman, one at the beginn-
ing of the period and the other
at the end.
Until the 11.20 mark of the
third period it appeared that
the Zurich crew could still
hang on to their margin of
victory, but at this point Cre-
diton carne to life and pump-
ed in four quick goals. Marks,
men were Bob Pinter, Bill
Chipchase, Dennis Morrissey
and Terry Bourne. With only
one minute to play in the
game Bob Merner brought the
Zurich crew back into conten-
tion when he scored from in
close, but even with their
goalie pulled in favour of an
extra attacker, thelocals just
could not come up with the
big marker they needed.
Five penalties were called
in the game by the poorest
excuse of referees ever seen
