Queerr's slipped in three goals in the first Saturday before allowing Hawks to take the rest of the game to them, but a cautious Gael defence plus the fortress- like netminding of goalie Barry Ashby kept Hawks at bay except for Tony Mar- tindale's third-period tally. Last Saturday Laurentian Vees popped in five first- period goals, the same total Toronto Blues amassed Wednesday at the And in an eventually-close 7-4 deci- sion.
