Clinton News-Record, 1980-11-13, Page 46PA E. 0-CLINTON N.i WS -R con), THURSDAY, NOVEM 20,.1980 ars bust Mustangs By Bryan Mantle The Clinton. Mustangs dropped a pair of games ell the weekend to the Port Elgin Bears as they were outscored 10 6 last Friday night and, then again: on Sunday night when the Bears won 9 7. The teams battled back and forth last Priday night as the Stangs. opened the scoring; on a goal by Brad ,Armstrong in the first period. Por Elgin tied the score,' the late stages. of• the period, and then went ahead early in the second before Brent Daw not- ched one to tie the game again. Port El in notched two more efore B" -11E - Armstrong got his second of " the night to draw within one. Then, both teams scored again late in the second as Greg Flowers scored a short handed goal. The third period started out well as Paul Stephenson scored on a naturally speaking power play to n .eve the Stangs within one, but Port Elgin retaliated with two 1'ntoi,e goals • to .go ahead 8 5 Larry Mier closed the gap at the 14 minute mark,. but, Port Elgin finished the Stangs Oft with a pair of goals :ifs r the last .five minutes of play, Jim Heilman played well in the nets for Clinton, stopping 44, shots 'despite the outcome of ,.,the game. Sunday night's game was almost .a repetition of the other (game, as the Stangs came out flying and scored four goals in the first period while the Bears scored only twice. The Clinton marksmen wake Greg -Flowers, Brad Armstrong, Larry Daer, and Greg Hallam. The second period was just the opposite, as the Bears scored three times to the Mustangsonce to even the score at five apiece. Greg Flowers was the Mustangs scorer; The third period'found If you have a husband, •oyfriend, brother, sister, etc., who is a real o tdoor person, then you are very lucky. Not only s that close person probably quite fit, both mentally and physically, from being outdoors, but they are also usually very easy to buy Christmas gifts' for. An outdoor person generally appreciates any gift that is oriented.. to his or-her_sport whether,. it's a $1.49 waterproof match safe or a brand new custom built fishing rod that costs as much as a small car. If you take the old socks and tie standby, substitute the dress socks for a pair of good four pound wool ones, and select a tie with a pheasant or duck on -it; you'll probably be shuffled up to the top of the list in his will. Throw in a pocket watch with a hunter's motif and a penknife for the other end of the fob and he'll make you the sole beneficiary. What I'm trying to say is that anything will please an outdoorsman. There are any number of little gadgets that will serve as stocking stuffers, or you can go for that one big item you've heard him mention a few times. There is only one -thing to remember -when you're buying outdoor gear, however, and that's to purchase the best quality you can afford: It pays off in big dividends in the long run. I've already mentioned the match safe as a good little stuffer, and things like wool socks and kroy wool underwear are always a good bet. I could go on to list high priced items like down sleeping bags, new shotguns, crdss country skis, etc., but most people are interested in gifts that run in the $5 to $20 range, so I'll` tr'y to stick to those items. One of the big items on any shooter's list is ammunition, and that is a great gift anytime. A 20 -dollar bill will buy 500 rounds of .22 cartridges, but will barely be enough to cover a box of 20 of some of the big game c fibers. Just remember, if you're buying ammo, the best bet is to get a hold of your man's hunting buddy, and find out exactly what you should get. Better `yet, have him buy it for you so you know you have the right stuff. Fishermen are real easy to buy for. If you keep buying lures till you run out of money'he still won't have enough, or the right one. A set of those little scales are great in the tackle box, but they do tend to shrink the size of fish. A filleting knife, extra fishing line, sinkers, hooks, etc., are all items we should have, but tend to overlook when we're buying for ourselves. °' Cross country .skiers or snowshoers would probably be delighted with a wineskin. A small day -pack that rides high on the back. and is just big enough to carry a lunch, extra socks and a few odds and ends would also be an excellent choice. Ever thought of getting a new wax kit for your skier? .bust pick up almost any catalogue and you'll find a section devoted to the outdoors. In it you'll find compasses, pocket knives, larding bell knives, pack saws, canteens, cook kits, light- weight stoves, travel toothbrushes, soap dishes, tent pegs, and kitchen sinks. They'll have thermal underwear, hand warmers, hot seats, gloves, mittens, toques, scarves, battery- operated socks and nose warmers. Have a look, take your pick and buy without hesitation. Chances are 100 to 1 that you'll please the person you're buying that outdoor gift for. • SAVE HEAT!

The Bears put the game otit of reach on a, deflection with two minutes left, but the Stangs just couldn't find the net,_ and the game ended 9 7. The Mustangs travelled to Hanover Tuesday night to play the Barons and this Friday night, they host the Wingham Irohmen at 8:30. On Sunday afternoon, they travel to Walkerton to play the first place Black Hawks in an af- ternoon contest.

Also on Nov. 22nd, the Mustangs will be holding their mid-season dance ° at the Clinton Legion, tickets are still available from executive and players and the cost is $15 per couple which includes a roast beef dinner following the dance. The Mustangs are hoping for a repeat performance of 1-ast year's dance which was a sell-out.

The overall champion and winner Qf the • A - event, was a rink from London skipped;by Al Brown with Dave Rpss, Vice; Dave Fanset, second and Bob Wiseman as lead. They took home the top prize money of $800. Second place in the A -event went to the team defeated in this final game : the Doug Rathwell rink from Listowel who ed receiv$360 forotheir efforts. This rink was skipped by ,Jack Nichol with Dale Graham as second and Ken Lawrence, lead. They conceded victory to the London team after nine ends of play and a rather lopsided score of 9-3. The two final games for the 13 and C events, however, were anything but ,lopsided - both real cliff-hangers. Each game ended in tied scores at the end of the regulation 10 ends and were decided after some tense play in the 11th end. As winner f the B -event, the Tho - pson rink frons St. Marys received third prize of $320, while their op- ponents, the Bill Cam- pbell rink of Seaforth gained fourth spot and $160. The other members of this rink 'were: Gord Pryce' as third; Mike Thomas, second and Neil Dolrnage, lead.. As winners of the fifth prize of $100, the Gerry, Walter rink with Bob Wilson, third; Don Tremeer, second and Bob Jarmuth, lead, earned their money the hard way - they had to play five games to achieve their victory: against the A & B events of four games. An ironic twist here was that in reaching this final, they defeated the Bogie rink of Goderich in their fourth and semi-final game - the team . that handed them their only loss during the second round of the A -event, which placed them in the C -event in the first place! Better luck next time fel las! The out-of-town teams. received the usual good hospitality everyone has come to expect from Seaforth, including a delicious bar -b -q steak dinner on Saturday.
