Arthur Intermediates won their
protest and forced a fifth game with
the Wingham Mohawks last week,
but it didn't do them much good on
Monday night when the local sextet
flattened, them 9-3 to take the best-
of-seven series in five straight games.
Wingham will now meet Harriston in
the finals—unless Arthur has any
more protests up their sleeve.
The protest arose over the fact
that Johnny Crewson wore an assis
tant captain’s sweater in a previous
game with Arthur when, according
to the rule book, a playing coach is
allowed to act either as captain or
assistant captain. The Wingham club
contended that Crewson had never
signed as playing coach and that no
captain or assistant had been named
at any time, but their objection was
brushed aside by WOAA officials who
decreed that the game would have to
be re-played. Adding to the con
fusion was the fact that although
Crewson had previously played in the
same sweater, the protest was not
entered until Arthur had lost its
fourth straight game In the best-of-
seven series.
In Monday’s game the locals proved
that protests notwithstanding they
were '•superior to anything Arthur
could produce. Bill Hilbert drew first
blood in the opening frame, with Neil
Stainton getting a pair of beautiful
counters within a minute, on assists
from Doug Murray.
In the second frame Arthur got two
but Wingham added three more to
their tally, putting the score at 6-2.
In the fin^l frame the locals tallied
three more to one for Arthur.
Top scorers for Wingham were
Neil Stainton and Maurice Stainton,
with three each. • Hilbert, Ritter and
Lloyd got singles. Doug Murray,
former juvenile, turned in an out
standing game' for the Intermediates
with four assists, and Gary Storey,
juvenile iletminder, did a wonderful
chore in goal.
