bombers in the semi finals toronto meteors are close on their heels with 21 points and could finish with 30 points should they win their game this week over markham and a fourpoint encounter with midland should meteors lose to markham and win in midland and should clippers defeat eclipse the two would lie tied with 28 points each in second place and would meet in the first round with orillia

over their closest league rivals orillia bombers in an oha senior b hockey fixture on thursday night the clippers were outscored 21 in the first period although they carried the big share of terri torial play both ross in the orillia net and lack harper for the blueshirts were tested repeatedly but both came through in great style which kept the crowd breathless jackie thomas clicked the first score for stouffville while varley scored two for lite bombers the first one on a breakaway clippers continued to press in the second frame and bill bradbury finally slapped one back of boss at 1035 only twenty seconds later couch reached in and poked through the winning counter as ross juggled it momentarily on the blade of his stick there was some argument when corel lewis rifled a drive on the ice which skidded under ross and spun erazily on the goal line only to roll out close by fans claimed the puck was in but there was no official rumpus ice in the last period was bad and the clippers took no chances of having a lucky slap shot tie the count and kept the rubber outside their blueline at every opportun ity ken broughton exnewmarketer with the bombers tried to mix tilings with his

to edge their closest second place rivals orillia bombers 21 here on saturday night the clippers started out fast in the first five minutes but seemed to fade badly as the period pro gressed it was during one of these lapses that bob bowen speedy orillia centre skated in alone to bounce the puck off harpers pads into the net from then until the end of the period goalie harper was called upon to make some great saves many from screen shots through players legs and skates having gotten a bad period out of their system the clippers struck hard and fast with jackie thomas tying the score from bradbury and minton on a high drive to the cor ner about four minutes later sayliss who has been one of the locals most constant scorers of late skated in over the blue line faked i pass to gatdt and fired the rub ber into the twine for what proved to be the winning tally the third period opened with the homesters trying desparately to jhold their one goal margin be cause of the close score the check ing became very heavy with de fencemen and forwards alike tak ing no chance on breakaways which might prove fatal under the terrific pressure both goalies harper and ross turned in stand out performances and were for the greater part responsible for the low score in the last minute of play as orillia pressed and with baker serving an interference penalty goalie ross was taken out of the net and an extra forward joined the fray without knowing of the empty net thomas grabbed the puck and lifted it down the ice only to have it slide aimlessly by the open cage playing with a man short the clippers held on doggedly until baker returned to the ice to help hold the fort when the final whistle ended the thrilling contest all local pucksters rushed over to give their steady netminder the thanks he so really deserved for his outstanding play for the losers ken broughton big blonde forward last year with newmarket turned in the best dis play with his hard checking and fast skating on his last appear ance here he held down a blue line position on defence but since has been moved up forward the game was cleanly played with only six penalties being band ed out and they were only for minor infractions with their two straight wins over the orillia boys the clippers have shown that they will be no pushovers when they probably meet these same bomb ers in the semifinal round of the playoffs because of the various four point games being played at the present time however the official standing cannot be determin ed as yet millionaires split with collingwood after dropping their first en counter 51 on friday night mark ham millionaires journeyed to col lingwood and handed the ship builders an s5 setback on their home ice in the first game the ice was very slow which seemed to hinder the play of the mark- hamites considerably while the bigger visiting team showed plenty of power and drive the mcclos- key brothers were the top marks men for the northern boys figur ing on three of the five goals scored green collected the others in collingwood however the mil lionaires led by brennan with four goals overcame a two goal lead in the first period to down the shipbuilders 85 singleton and sluce each counted two markham who has been hit rather hard lately with injuries seems to be slowly getting back to full strength wat son injured on friday night was back in the lineup but jewett bell h forgie and carr are still on the sidelines squad werent throwing them selves into the game with gusto either and gave their spare net- minder little protection at times newmarket on the other hand played as if a championship was at stake the newmarket line of johnson legge and smith who were part of the clipper outfit last year were by far the visitors best johnson getting four of his teams counters bill mabbett an exstouffville junior now in the canal town picked up three baker sayliss and clark netted the three local tallies and kept the seniors from being routed entirely clippers go sour in exhibition game stouffville clippers merely went through the motions in their ex hibition game with newmarket redmen on monday night and the yonge streeters carried away a 93 win jack harper local senior goalie was given a rest for two periods and jack warriner sub who hasnt been in a game for weeks wasnt able to cope with the situation and the visitors mounted their score easily however the balance of the local aurora sunday skaters crowded for the past several sunday after noons there has been free super vised skating at the aurora arena the aurora banner
