The Wingham Advance-Times, 1945-02-08, Page 4of cake, Share the wealth plan goes over here, Well I guess I had better close for to-day. Love, Bill, * a a The following letter is from W. B. Abram of I3eintore, now overseas, to Mrs. curie of llelmore, expressing ap- preciation of a box sent by the Red Shield group, 4IFCAB. COX' RCASC (CAA) Mrs. Curler Just a few lines to let you know how I am, well I am fine and hope this finds you the same. I received the parcels that you sent me from behalf of the Red Shield group. I sure was surprised to get it, things are 'ere going to be different this year from Xmas than last year, it will only be like another day to us. Last year I was on leave in Manches- ter for Xmas and New Years, but things have changed since then, We didn't have much of a summer in Eng- land, it rained for weeks and weeks and not much sunshine, It will be nice to get back to Canada were the sun shines at least three days in a, row, I would liked to have sent each and everyone a Xmas card, but we could not get any over here this year. Well that is about all the news I can think of to write so I will close for now and thanking you very much for the parcel, wishing you a happy New Year. Sincerely, W. B. Abram KINCARDINE CLUB DEFEATS LOCAL GIRLS Kincardine Girls Down Locals 5 to 1 In a battle of the fairer sex on Monday night the Kincardine girls de- feated the Wingham girls to the count of 5-1. Dorothy Wilson proved to be top scorer for Kincardine with four goals, while Ann VanWyck notched Winghams one. In the first period Dorothy Wilson scored two goals with Helen Wilson scoring the other making the count 3-0. The second period saw no scoring with the Wingham girls strongly on the defence. In the third period Dorothy Wilson scored two goals while Ann Vanlaryck scored for Wingham ending the game 5-1. The Kincardine aggregation plays a good game of. hockey with combination and aastem showing the fact that they have been playing together for some years The local girls did very well although not having such long experience they put up a good battle. In the Lakeshore town last week the score was '7-1 for the Kincardine girls. Line Ups— Kincardine—goal, Wrightson; def., Morrison, McSween; centre, D.

Monday night when he was top scorer with three goals. The local team played classy hockey to dispose of their rivals by a score of 7-4. In the first period Ernest set up Wingham by scoring two goals, the first from Seli and the second from Thorns. This superiority however did not remain long as in less than a minute Strathdee taking a pass from 'McLeod slipped one past Johnston ending the period 2-1,, In the second encounter the score was see-saw with Wingham notching four to Ripley's two. Sell started off the scoring by .taking a pass from Kress, then on a lone rush Wilson stormed the Win ha defence and rang the bell. Ernest promptly re- taliated in less than a minute by scor- ing unassisted. Ripley then got its second goal of the period with D. Pol- lock scoring front. Stratlidee. Wing- ham retaliated by scoring two goals, Kress from Seli, and Lockridge from Stainton ending the stanza Wingharn 6, Ripley 8. The third period saw only two goals scored, the first by Wingham. by Ed- gar from I<ress and for Ripley Strath- dee front Wilson and McLeod. It is well worth noting that of the twenty points of the Wingham play- ers 10 were gained by the line of Kress, Edgar and Sell, Only one Wingham goal was scored unassisted which is evidence that the boys are putting up sporty hockey which is fast, clean and well worth watcling.
