Fans Enjoy Fast Hockey As Pro Players Win 11â€"4 In Benefit Game Monday Midget League Receives Finâ€" ancial Assistance From Exhibition Tilt A highâ€"driven puck made it‘s way into the local mesh between thigh and pipe to give the Pro‘s additional marks, with Baker taking scoring honors and George Deflice assisting points. The two Curick brothers teamed with Hursâ€" ley from the final goal shortly before the close of the session with Bill Curick driving the dise in against one pipg, against the mesh and out again. «~~â€"~Hither and YÂ¥on From the opening whistle of the sandwich session the two Mine League snipers, Tomiuk and Delmonte, faâ€" vored the von section with their preâ€" sence with Tomiuk converting a low pass to the front of Bastien‘s reâ€" sponsibility. ho Can on s vfiéar _t.'he closé of the session Tomiuk and Robinson were banished for A slight roughing bout, making it the ut +6 sb o ~The locals opened up for a great show following their starting goal with Jcoe Iannerelli putting on a colorful display of speed and stick talent and Buddy Mangotich drawing a hand from the fans on holding off the pro‘s attacks in great style. Hursley and Narduzzi managed a break from the siege curtain with the former Washington captain taking honors on a rolling pass. Breaking down the wall entirely, Leo Curick romped through the local defence, drew Mangotich out about six feet, cut away to the board and lobbed a low corner shot into the open net. + Heavy checking flavored the tilt from then out and after untangling himself{ from a collision with Nick Toâ€" miuk, without the aid of a plumber, Eric Prentice glided in on Mangotich from the blue line to make good duel assists on a kneeâ€"high drive. The gocdly number of hockey fans attending the Midget League Benefit game, at the Mcintyre Monday night by local boys recently returned from hockey wars down below and a sextet composed of pucksters playing locally, came away anything but disappointed.

With Bastien drawn from his basket and a pileâ€"up in progress, Casanato blinked the bulb. A hard stab at retaliation was thwarted by the acrobatic Bastien and in turn again Bep Guidolin and Brian Robinson spear headed attacks. Roâ€" binson finally made the grade, conâ€" verting Leo Curick‘s helpâ€"out in a scramble session. Two goals down and in receipt of much body and board usage, the locals staged their own private siege, ending Harold Hursley, late of the Washingâ€" tomn Lions, and Bill Curick, returned from Galt, led the scoring parade with three goals and single assists for the evening. "Bas" Bastien doubtless kept the tide of battle from turning on more than one occasion with a spectacular exhibition of ice acrobatics betwixt the pipes on the Pro end of the bargain. Pardon Our Dust The first period was launched with both teams heavy ‘on speed and the Pro‘s presenting a show of finish and smoothness. Eric Prentice was the first to threaten local territory, makâ€" ing his threat good on a pass from Merco Narduzzi early in the opener by sending a soft one through the bottom of Mangotich‘s stance.

Members Of Six Juvenile Hockey Teams Join In Endâ€"Ofâ€"Season Banquet On the otherâ€"side of this curtain just descended is news of an open mecting to be held in the municipal building on Saturday, May 13. The meeting is being called for that date by the Youth Welfare Council, who, at 8.30 o‘clock on said date, want to see everyone interested in the formation of softball leagues present. From Don Hardy we hear the Council is particularly interested in the formation of juvenile leagues formed from youngsters able to swing a bat, up to lads of 18 years of age. In the light of this and more, the Youth Welfare Council should certainly receive full support in the launching of their plans to bring these softball leagues into the camp. The Council will help to organize these leagues, and senior leagues, although the stress of support will be towards the circles composed of the younger set, whom ithey hope to see coached by older enthusiasts making sppemance at the meeting. The move by the Youth Welfare Council is in the proper alley for the youngsters of the town and is probably the answer tu oftâ€"aired expressions of modest or major alarm over the number of bewildered lads who find little to do and so resort to fill the gaping doorway, the billiard halls or cccupy the polished stool of the eateries, all of which the pessimistic cencernee states will lead to all but good.
