Juveniles Eliminated in Third Game with Dover * Wingham’s Juveniles played their last game of the season on Wednes­ day in Port Dover, and although they didn’t win, they went down fighting. The local boys staged a • second and third period rally which came close but wasn’t quite enough to avert a 6-4 defeat at the heavier and more Dover opponents. Tough breaks had it. The locals lost third game and found themselves playing the crucial game on a small rink with square corners and just enough room to squeeze through be­ hind the goal posts. They were short handed, with only two defencemen, one of them had been battling the ’flu for the past week. And they fought a terrific uphill battle after a Port Dover scoring spree in the first period. The first frame was their undoing. Port Dover lead the attack and notch­ ed four goals before the local got on their feet. In the second period Wingham came .back with two counters, but in the latter half of the frame Port Dover matched them with two quick goals within a minute of each other. In the final period Wingham blanked the Port Dover sextet with another pair, but were unable to even it up. The game was the third in a best- of-three series in the Ontario Juven­ ile “C” semi-finals. Each team had won one game previously.
