Penetang Oldtimers capture gold by -DOREEN STAINTON Penetang '"'Memories Lounge' Oldtimers skated to yet another gold medal per- formance on the weekend when they took part in the 4th Annual Kitchener Waterloo Oldtimers International Hockey Tournament along with 31 other teams. Defenceman Chuck Hatfield was the Big man, in more ways than one way, for Penetang when he popped in the winning goal at the 2:23 mark of the sudden death overtime period. A low blast from the point caught the bottom right hand corner to give an _ extausted Penetang squad the win. Place in the Super "C"' division, Penetang beat the Milton Cen tennials Oldtimers in their first game on Friday night by a score of 5-2. Larry Banks Opened the scoring midway through the first frame.

Larry Banks tied it up. Oakville went ahead again by two. however, back to back goals 30 seconds apart, by Paul DeVillers gave Penetang a 4-4 tie. This game proved to be especially meaningful for Penetang's Larry Banks, a native of the Kitchener Elmira region, as his Mom and Dad were in attendance. Peewees win by KEITH ROSSEL Last Tuesday evening at the Elmvale arena, the Elmvale Dutcher and Corbett Peewees eliminated Midland from the Georgian Bay playdowns by defeating the fast-skating Midland leam by a score of 6-3.

LU Wiais.2- JUS ea tremendous effort for Penetang, who had to play their final game without the help of two Scott Archer, and Todd Belanger played very well and cheared the puck effectively from their own zone. The lines of Steve Dove, Darren Haines, and Jamie Grant and Andy Lee, Rob Hamilton, and Michael Irvine skated hard and forechecked well to hold the Beeton teat at bay. The line of Scott Kirton, Robby Conn, and Jim Pottage played a superlative game defensively and ac- counted for all three Eimvale goals. Pottage scored from Bywater at 9:59 of the first period. Al 2:41, Conn took a pass from Kirton and scored a short-handed goal. Conn scored again in the third period on another pass from Kirton with 6:53 left to play.
