ame ae cant nu _ In the modified class, (#* Gunther Schmidt drove his Midland Peewee Braves travel to Huntsville -The Midland Peewee Braves travelled to Hunt- sville on Wednesday and came back from a 1-0 deficit to tie the Hawks 1-1. With such a low scoring game, the defences of both teams naturally dominated. Sparkling in net for Midland was Jeff Sauve who repulsed Huntsville attacks time and again. As he has become more and more comfortable at the goaler position, Suave is learning the extra things that assist so much, such as (trapping the ball off the first shot, passing off to the appropriate teammate, and better positioning on the initial shot. He even garnered an assist on the one Midland goal. Equally impressive were the efforts of the ornermen Chris Ingram, Geoff Ball, Countney Elliott and Tyler Strachan. All four checked hard and made the Hawks shooters pay for coming in close. From a positive point the cornermen were better positioned; from a negative view, too many loose balls in front were be- ing won by Huntsville. The forwards were a tired lot after such a hard fought game. Out of necessity they had to spend more time checking than advancing the ball. Show- ing some offensive moves Saunders wins first slalom leg The first leg of the Huronia Auto Slalom Series took place at Moun- tainview Mall Sunday afternoon, a brand new event featuring a tricky course set up in different towns on _ different occasions. Cars have to go through the testing course and the winner is the driver who does it the best - and the fastest. The six-event series is sponsored by General Tire and all proceeds go to the Big Brothers of Midland-Penetang. John Saunders of Midland won the Class B3 with Barrie's George Bur- nham placing second. Cam Kurle of Midland nipped Gunther Schmidt of Bluewater in the B1 class. Formula Ford to a first place finish beating out Orillia's Phil Chapman. The fastest time on the day was recorded by Schmidt with 45 seconds even. Next race in this series will take place at Orillia Square Mall on July fifth, 1987. HELP KEEP RED CROSS READY! were Peter Kitay, Chris Bell, Justin Murdock and Ron Hutchinson, all of whom came close to either scoring or setting up scores. The lone Midland goal was scored by Kevin Lunnie on a short pass from his brother Brent. Solid checking from Jamie Summers and Tim Baker while patrolling the wins helped keep the score close. Like the defenders, the forwards seemed to back off from loose balls and greater work is need- ed on positional play. All in all though, an encouraging effort on the road. On Tuesday, next, the Braves travel to Orillia to face the toughest team in the league and then return home on Thursday, to play Aurora. our Grand Opening bluetag specials continue (24 months) Fine form This young miss displays fine form as she gives her best effort in the long jump at Sacred Heart School this week.
