The bus full of family and players took a little longer than" expected to arrive at their destination and did not have, too much pre-game time. The game started off at a fast pace even though the ice was very soft and difficult to skate on. - The first goal in the game was when Dresden broke in and set up a passing play that just trickled in the net just five minutes into the game. The lead didn't last too long as Ports Ron Brown and Jim Abraham worked The Oshawa Classic Road Race on May 3rd will be the site of the Ontario Wheel- chair 10 km Road Race championship, race organizers have announced. This is the third year for the road race, which from its inception has been unique {n combining disabled" able-bodied athletes on the same course for the same distance. Sponsored by the Ontario March of Dimes and organized by the Oshawa Legion Track and Field Club, the race has been designated as the Ontario Wheelchair 10 km road race championship. This is expected to swell the number of wheelchair entries, the number of which has grown consistently over the past two years. Last year required a separate start for wheelchair entries. "We think it is significant, in this the International Year of Disabled Persons, that a provincial title is at stake," said race organizer, Tim Uuksulainen. Carolyn Lawson, of the local Ontario March of Dimes office, said she feels the unique character of the -race is something of which the whole community should be proud.

The score didn't change until Dresden tied it up with just five minutes left. The score.of 2-2 stayed and the teams had to face an over- time period which was the finest display of end to end hockey that many spectators had ever seen.

Port Perry was really fired up to start the game and they seemed to overcome the slow ice surface and returned to their fast skating game early in °the game,. : The referees made some very tight penalty calls but. this did not hamper the efforts as five minutes into - the game Port scored on a "nice shot by Mike Gibson, . but the goal did not count as the puck was not thought to of crossed the goal line. This seemed to slow the game down but only for a few seconds as neither - team could afford a mistake as in male and female divisions. Disabled divisions include wheelchair athletes; blind athletes; amputee athletes; cerebal palsy athletes', - all in male and female categories - plus a five person wheelchair relay. The greatest number of entries, as in most road races, will be the fitness athletes - those who compete not for prizes but for fitness. Over such a certified, standard course runners can compare finishing times from year to year to keep track of their own progress. Organizers stress that the main aim of the race is participation. '"We aren't going about this as" a fund- raising run. We just want any game. Ports defence was flawless in both games as they never missed a play and did not allow a single break-away. The game was very exciting as in the start of the second period, four minutes elapsed without a whistle and each team having many shots on the other teams goal. The game was still tied at 0-0 at the start of the third period. Before long Port found the range when Karl Durham fed the puck back to Doug Dusty who fired a nice wrist shot into the net with Ports Ron Brown screening the Dresden goaler well.
