current senior hockey series was a bitter disappointment to the local hockey management manager tim oneill and secretary telf rennie are quite resigned to putting the 195051 series on the shelf and looking towards next fall stouffville has placed a real competitor in the field now for a number of seasons and their repeated downfall at playoff time has failed to dampen their ardour which speaks well its a strange coincidence that stouff ville and peterborough two teams picked earlier this year to be top competitors for playoff honors have both fallen by the wayside moe galand left for

difficul ty with syracuse which has a capacity city arena of 8000 is the 350mile road trip the extra ex pense involved would be quite high one would conclude well that allimportant playoff bout is history for another season and with a much different result that both local and markham fans alike expected to see as was stated in our account of the final game at oshawa markham won the series on their superiority around the opposition net as for the clippers they blew their big chance when they dropped the second game at unionville after leading 30 granted the outcome of the series would still have been in doubt but the effect upon the millionaires had they dropped the first two games in succession could have proved a big factor in tippj ing the scales in stouffville favour the clippers made a vali ant attempt to stage a comeback and came very close to pushing the series to the limit what next season will bring forth remains to be seen stouffville will definitely be in there again as the arena just couldnt operate without an entry the faot that markham again gathered in the group cham pionship will prove a real shot in the arm to this club which has their homeice problem
