Senior Vikings finish season 6-0 BYTD The GDCI senior Vikings gave up the first points scored on them this season in Huron - Perth Conference football play here Thursday, but despite a few anxious moments in the early going, the Vikings still came up with an impressive 41-12 victory over the Norwell Redmen. By virture of th ,'victory, the Vikings finished first with a erfect six wins, no loss record. Norwell came into the game at 4-1, with a chance to finish first by beating the Vikings and actually held a 12-7 lead over Goderich in the second quarter. However, the potent Viking offence proved more than the Redmen could handle as the game progressed. The first place Vikings will now meet fourth place Listowel here Thursday at 2:30 p.m. in one semi-final match -up. The Redmen, relegated to fourth place by their loss here Thursday, will meet second place Stratford Northwestern in the other semi- final. The Vikings moved the ball well throughout the game, getting good execution from the line and strong running, especially from Ed Craig and John Machine and Bedford each win three in a row Jerry Rosendal scored three goals to help give Bedford a 6-3 win over Ultramar in Recreational Hockey League action on Sunday, October 23. Paul Kelly, Ernie Godin and Paul Feagan scored for Ultramar. The other game that evening was a lower scoring affair with the Green Macine sneaking one by Sunset 3-1. Bruce Melick, Schoff and Greg Smith scored for the Machine while Kevin Meriam was the lone marker for Sunset. On Monday, October 24, Green Machine made it three wins in a row, defeating O'Briens 7-6. Bill Peters scored twice and added an assist to lead the Macine. The same evening, Bedford made it three wins in a row and Garb and Gear made it three losses in a row as the Flyers out - hustled Garb and Gear 7-3. Mark Frayne scored two goals and had three assists in the Bedford win. The Thursday game in Clinton was all ('fere-Vu's as they defeated Ultramar 9-5. Greg Burns was the offensive player of the game, scoring the hat -trick and adding two assists. O'Briens outscored Hodges 7-6 in Clinton on Sunday morning, October 30. Dennis I,assaline had three goals and three assists to lead all scorers. The evening game in Goderich saw Green Machine and Clere-Vu play to a 7-7 tie. Tag Sowerby tied the game with a late third period goal, his second of the game. McGraw. Craig had three touchdowns, all on short yardage situations in the first three quar- ters. Jeff Feagan went nine yeards off - tackle for another third quarter touchdown. Kevin Beattie and Shawn Rahbek scored fourth quarter majors; Beattie's on a 27 yard sweep and Rahbek's on a 71 yard pass and run play from quarterback John Thompson. Joe Melady kicked three con- verts, the first two providing the edge in the Vikings' 14-12 half-time lead. The Vikings also had one two-point conversion on a pass from Grant Garrow to Jeff "Joey J.S." Feagan. The Viking defence found itself in a hole early in the game due to penalties and turnovers. The Redmen got touchdowns on a seven yard sweep by Dan Nickel and a two - yard pass and run from Dan Hill to Wes Hesselink, but after that the Viking defence settled down and controlled a potentially strong Norwell attack for the rest of the game. Coaches Ray Donnelly and Chris Connor were not upset about having their team's unscored upon record vanish, feeling it is probably best to get scored on in the regular season than to meet that shock for the first time in an emotion -packed playoff game.

Mary O'Neill and Frltzley had 17 points each and Allison Graham added another 10. Cathie Gallow with four, Anne Allan and Mary Murphy with three each and Mary Alexander with two points, rounded out the Viking attack. Pam Rutherford was Listowel's best with 14 points.
