MIDGETS REMAIN UNDEFEATED Defeat Blyth 6-2 Friday Night Friday night saw the Winning streak of the Wingham Lions defeat once more the Blyth team. Although, the score was 6-2 for Wingham, myth never once stopPed battling although they didn't score as often as the Lions. It looks like it will be Blyth 'who will give Wingham a battle in this league. They -have bigger boys than Wing- ham which they used all through the last period, but only succeeded once in slipping the puck past the red line. The first period opened with a bang with. Wingham .scoring• five of their goals and Blyth one. Kress opened up the scoring with two goals followed by Ernest then Edgar and Seli, while Watson' scored for Blyth, The second period saw no scoring on either team and ended the score the same, Wing- ham 5. Blyth 1. Soon after the start of the third period Seli took a clean pass from Kress making the score 6-1. Then Lee slipped one past Johnston making the final score, Wingham 6, Blyth 2. The last period was an unfortunate one for Wingham as Johnny Johnston and Seli both received a slash in the face with a stick and had to retire to the dressing room but both returned to the game. The ice was fast'and the game was fast and one well worth watching. There haven't been large crowds so far-it would be a big boost to the players if more fans came out to sup- port them.
