Brooklin Juniors Lead Series After Downing Elmira Two Straight On Saturday last in the Port Perry Arena Brooklin Jrs, edged Elmira "Harvesters" 8-6 to tie the series at two games apiece and then went one game up on Tuesday night when they clipped the Elmira crew 6-2 on their home ice. : On Saturday night the Brooklinites enjoyed a considerable edge in play in the first two periods and although Elmira had control in the final period the locals managed to hang on to their lead. Paul Tran returned to ac- tion giving the locals two well-balan- ced lines and as a result the scoring -was well divided with Don Tran being the only repeat scorer, Cornish operied the scoring for the locals at 7.41 with the help of Carne- gie and M. Joneg ang. ~two minutes later Paul Tran added-another with assists to G. Jones and Doug Vipond. Henrick picked up a loose puck at 11.19 and beat Owens for the visitor's first tally -- Don Tran got this one back at 16.30 when he combined with M. Jones. The Brooklinites struck for two quick goals at the opening of the 2nd period from the sticks of Gibson and Doug Vipond, The "Harvesters" were kept well in check in this period with M, Brubacker getting their only tally. Carnegie gave Brooklin a 6-2 lead at 11.64 while the visitors were two men short, Don Tran got his hand marker at po 4.36 of the third and for the remain- der of the period, Elmira carried 'the play ag the Brooklin defence weakened, The visitors garnered four goals from the sticks of R. Brubacker, Goode, Wil- kins and Dumich while Pascoe got the final tally for the locals at 10.31, Down two goals, Elmira pulled their goalie in the dieing minutes but Brooklin weathered the storm, thanks to some fine saves by Owens, RY GH On Tuesday night after a late start the Brooklin crew: found themselves and took a one game lead in their best four out of geven series, Warriner opened the scoring for Brooklin at the 14 minute mark in the first period and although they were out-played in the first two periods, " they. never went behind, Jack Owen in the nets for Brooklin played bril- . liant hockey robbing the Elmira Crew numeroug times of sure goals, With a two-all deadlock going into the 'third period the Brooklin boys \ broke loose with a three goal scoring spree to wrap up the game. Cornish with two led the Brooklin scoring, while Warriner, Gibson and Murray Jones picked up singles. The sixth (and possibly final) game will be played here in the Port Perry Arena on Saturday night. Don't miss it.
