`Y House League! Reaches Finals Colts started strongy and the {game looked to a be a pushover for -them. Both the former Colt goal- `keepers kicked out pucks in sensa- ltional style and then looked like `hams on others. Goring was handi- `capped as an eye was closing fast `ifrom a bad smash by a ying puck `before the game began. `n,.._.... u-.. .......1..\ ..I...n...A :11 +1. } The second frame opened fast `with the Copacos going on a regular `scoring spree, <,~;e:ting three goals to gthe Colts one, the period ending` at I A 1 711]... .CI..... ,.1` (.1... 14-4. The pla_\'.~: of the juniors `lwere supe1`-supe1' as the third per- `iod opened. They displzwed a lrazzle-dazzle style of hockey that [had the Porkers baffled for almost `lten minutes. In that time they `counted five goals. | Ray Green, manager of the Co- .pacos, sent out ve forwards, and ;the next session belonged to the ; Packers as they sent four tallies be- ihind Goring, coming within 2; goal `of knolting; the count. Following gtzliat splurge the Colts opened up for 'another goal to take the guzzxu by in two-goal ma1'g;in. I Dint Scott and Bill Lonvg were the leading snipers of the night, _scoring four each. Long was the !great opportunist as he waited for the breaks and showed great bursts of speed to work in on Goring`. If Bill had had a pair of wings cap- lable of taking his passes he would !have been down for a dozen assists also. \The Colt defence of Pecore and Terry spent considerable time rush- ing, but it took the diminutive Pub Urry to put them back of the Iblue line. He dumped Terry beau- Etifully and then handed Pecore a honey of a bodybasher that found !the little northerner skating slowly ito the box for relief. n. .- an ; xv mu. uu.\ ;u4 ;\.u\.;.. S Sexsmith showed himself as a goal scorer when he notched three goals. Pecore, Vern Bowen, Vicks, Livingston, Don Bowen and Hines wound up with scoring points.

Now, following the saem line of reasoning, we should choose Kitchener. However, we still like Oshawa. Those kids, after waiting all winter for competi- tion, polished off Peterboro, Kingston and then the Colts, so they have to have something. According to reports, careless clearing allowed the Krauts to come from behind a three-goal goal decit to notch their win. On the other side, the Kitchen- nu-.
