They handed Brockville a 6-2 set-back in Brockvlle Saturday wlth Fred Etcher leading the way, scoring 2 goals. Aif Treen, Hbmebrew Doug. Williams, Tad DeGray, and Tommy O'Connor scored the others. Brockville managed to keep Bobby Attersley from scoring in this game, although he did pick up one point on an assist on O'Con, for's go>al. Attersley will probably be itduing to break their sesl Sat- urday. After aIl, it iu not often the league's top scorer wlth 36 pâlots in 14 games goes 60 min- utes without scoring a goal. Gi-bson and Thompson scored for the Magedomas. Ail seoring came ini the first 2 periods, but 18 of the 24 minutes iii penalties came in the final period. SUNDAY GAME In Cornwall, the Dunlops doubled the score on the Colts, 6-3, as Bcbby AtteV'sley scored a 3-goal bat trick to raise hie season's total to 20. That's an average of almoat one and one-baîf goals per game! At the expense of the cellar- dwelling Cornwall club Sandy Air potted one of the quickest goals of the season, blinking the light after only 40 seconds of play in thse gaine. Tommy O'Connor scored bie second in as many gamnes, and Neil Attersley notched the other Whitby goal.
