We understand they will meet. the winner of the Preston -Orange- ville series. Bartliff started off the scoring in the first ten minutes -of play and, a few minutes Meeker of NewHamburg, also Rohfritsch, then Miller for Cline ton and Rykman and Sehoenhals. The score ended 3 -all . Seven penal- ties were banded out, the locals 'earn- ing 4 and the visitors, 3. This period was also marked by a penalty shot awarded against Meeker. Schoenhal's was given it but shot wild. The second- period was uneventful except for Ducleworth's goal at 18 minutes and one penalty for each tenni, Cameron and Rykman being the offendlers,. In the .third period Miller scooted the puck to Schoenhals at the face- off and he carired it clear through the visiting defence to beat Bren- nan in less than a minute, to he fol- lowed closely by Duckworth in a similar play. Meeker then scored twice in succession narrowing down the Lions margin to 1 goal for the game. Cook, however. scored mottle er for Clinton giving the home team a 2 goal win and a 4 goal margin on the round.
