"Strict laws alone can not reduce
snowmobile mishaps."
A light dusting of snow, a little
nip in the air and out comes

concern is given to the fact that
the lake is not adequately frozen,
patches of bare earth still exist,
or that the machine has not been
serviced. Suddenly, a mature,

The result can be broken

broken hearts.
Since the 1974-75 snowmobile
season began OPP members
have investigated ten fatal snow-
mobile mishaps in which four
persons drowned and seven died
after their snow machine collided
with a fixed object,
Commissioner Graham
reminds snowmobilers, "The
only sure way to avoid needless
suffering and tragedy is for each
snowmobile operator to become
aware of his moral responsibility
towards himself, his family and
his neighbor. "Common sense
and good habits are infectious.
They will contribute to the reduc-
tion of serious injury and death
that are now too often associated
with the sport of snowmobiling."

Penalties galore
In a rough and rugged game in
the local arena the Wingham
Ironmen, with a strong third
period, downed the Port Elgin
Bears 8 to 3 in Junior "D" action.
It was an exciting first period
with, the Ironmen on the offensive
but they were turned back time
and time again by the quick glove
of Port's goalie, Rick Scrudder.
And, oh yes, he had a goalie's
best friends, George and Gord
Goalpost, ringing regularly from
Ironmen blasts from all angles.
At 15:43 the Ironmen hit the score
sheet, it was a power play goal
with Gerry Wheeler taking a pass
from Doug Leitch and sliding it
into the corner of the net as Port
Elgin's Captain, Bob McKinnon,
watched from the penalty box.
Less than a minute later Wing -
ham went two up and the goal
came as Port Elgin enjoyed the
man advantage—it was a beauty
as Doug Leitch picked up the .
puck at centre, sped down his off
wing, evading two solid checks
directed his way and flipped the
puck over to "wheelin Gerry"
Wheeler in front of the net and
Gerry blasted it home.
Port Elgin hit the ice in the
second on the move and at 3:17,
playing a man short, took ad-
vantage of poor puck control by
the Ironmen defence and with
Garry Acton's goal they were
right back in the game. The Iron -
men made it 3 to 1 as Doug Leitch
scored at 7:24 with assists going -

to Barry O'Krafka and Gerry
Wheeler. The Port Elgin Bears
kept ton the skate and closed the
gap with a in„owPr play goal by
their "Little Bear" No. 4, George
Schmatt, who walked around the
net untouched by an Ironmen
and, picking up his own rebound,
flipped the puck into the Ironmen
net. For the next ten minutes.
those Bears kept skating and
appeared to have the Ironmen on
the run. However the Ironmen
got untracked at the 15 -minute
mark as Graham Hamilton
blasted one from the point, Barry
MacDonald pounced on, the re-
bound and flipped it to . Phil
Paquette who dented the twine to
give the Ironmen a 4 to 2 lead at
the end of the second.
The third period saw Port Elgin
get a power play goal from the
stick of 'Gary Acton at 4:11 and it
was a 4 to 3 game. Both teams
laid on the hits and at 5:39 Wing -
ham's Doug,Leitch was taken
rather illegaly into the boards. A
slip of the tongue and Doug had a
10 -minute misconduct and an
automatic two -minute minor. At
this point, it didn't look .good fpr
the Ironmen. But thanks to a
couple of foolish Port Elgin
penalties, the Ironmen capita-

Port Elgin's Gary Acton . and

singed one along the ice into the
corner of the net at 7:36 with
assists going to Barry O'Krafka
and Bob Johnston. From this
point, the Bears appeared to
raise their ugly sticks in defeat
and seemed more content in
adding up their penalty minutes
than sticking to hockey. With the
man advantage for nearly the
last ten minutes of the game the
- Ironmen rang the count to 8 to 3
with two goals by Barry Mac-
Donald and a single by Phil

Coach Doug Skinn was at the
organ loft and got the game under
way with a rather jazzy ending to
"0 Canada" ... The referees left
a little to be desired. One avid
local fan supporting her. new
"Ironmen, Supporter" crest on
her arm was so worked up at the
referees' oversight on an obvious
penalty that she let her glove go
with the referees head as the
main target. Yes, referee Martin
had little help from his lack of
whistle -tooting blonde.
, This win puts the Ironmen just
three points out of first, behind
the Arthur Screaming Eagles
