THE STERLING TRUSTS CORPORATION Centralia Flyers proved they had depth in strength Tuesday night by ousting Milverton Royals 6-4 without the services of their scoring star Randy Ellis or Rill Todd, regular de­ fenceman. Both were out with injuries. The Flyers took the best-of- seven series in four straight games after the two teams had deadlocked i n the opener.

Wilberforce, Johnson and Em­ bury scored in the second to give the Flyers an undisputed lead. McCallum fired Milverton’s only counter. Ayres notched his second goal of the night for Milverton at 7:08 of the third to cut the win­ ners’ lead to 5-4.

Flood Milver- Gibson DAVE’S COMMENTS IKMf APOLIi MOpNt ■fes STANDARD School Cagers Lose Title Bid In Thrilling Overtime Contest By JACK BROWN Special To The Thncs-Advocatc No team ever lost a tougher basketball game than the S.H.D.- I-I.S. quintet did at Toronto on Saturday in the Ontario Second­ ary School “B” championship series. The local team was edged out, 55-53 in overtime, in the semi-finals of the annual event, by a hard-driving crew from Pembroke. The Pembroke squad, featur­ ing a fast-break and some deadly shooting at times, broke into the scoring column seconds after the first whistle, and held a lead throughout the entire first quar­ ter. At the end of the first, the eastern Ontario “B” champs were leading 15-12. At sparked by O’Brien’s six points, South Huron was in front, 26- 25. By the time the three-quarter mark were scored 12 more points in the last canto to wind up in a regu­ lation time stalemate. In 4.116 three-minute overtime period, the local crew, with Middleton, O’Brien, Hicks, Moir and Batten leading the thrust, jumped into a one-point lead early, on a foul shot by Middle­ ton. Pembroke then picked up two points on foul shots, to go one up, only to have Middleton again put the South Huron crew in the van with a beautiful hoop from a rebound. Again the lead switched as the half, rolled around, the teams tied at 35-35 and each Pembroke fired another pair of foul shots to go ahead 51-50. Tie And Tie Again With 50 seconds remaining in the three-minute overtime period, Armstrong, of Pembroke, fouled Hicks, and the Exeter boy tied the game up again at 51-51. Seconds later ^Pembroke again went into the lead with another pair of foul shots, only to have Hicks tie it again with a one- handed set shot from far out. It looked then as if another over­ time period would he scheduled, until Pembroke’s Moe Wesanko killed the Exeter boys with a looping set shot less than ten seconds away from the final whistle. By this time the South Huron team could get the ball out, up to the Pembroke end of the floor, and make any kind of play with it, the game was over. Middleton, who placed himself into exhaustion, was the star of the Exeter team, potting six baskets and four foul shots for 16 points. .Close behind him was O’Brien with 12 points on five baskets and two foul shots. J. Sturgis and Hicks followed with eight each. Moir had seven, and Yungblut two. Albert College, of Belleville, were- the winners of the class “B” tournament. In the semi­ finals, the whipped South Porcu­ pine 42-28, then belted Pem­ broke 5 3-27 to take the honors. The locals, matched with South Porcupine in the “B” con­ solation series, slipped badly, to go down to defeat 41-.2. Bob Mitchell of Porcupine went wild for 20 points in that game, while O’Brien, Moir and Hicks led the South Huron team. But it was the wild overtime thriller between the Exeter and Pembroke teams in, the after­ noon that captured the crowd’s imagination. Stacked up against the “A” class teams who were slated to show more class and fight, the smaller school teams held up well and had the side­ liners talking about the tight tilt long after it was over. The lineups: EXETER (53): O'Brien (12), Hicks OS), Moir (7), Yungblut (2), Sturgis (S), Middleton (16), Batten, Cudmore, Adkins, Fletcher, McCurdy. PEMBROKE (55): Wesanko (16), Mill (9), Young (15), Miller (11), Horricks (2), Campbell, Armstrong (2), Biederman, Ziegel, Bombay.Officials: R. Harvey, F. Sgambati, Toronto.
