has now been picked off by new market and was a valuable addi tion to the team here on monday night in their tie game with mark- ham the clippers win over colling wood 63 was more notable since the locals were three men short for two periods and two for one period neither ross hochberg nor earl mccrone were in the lineup and minton was injured as the second period started and never returned there was some very loose refereeing in saturday nights collingwood game by the visiting oha official from oshawa he took considerable abuse from collingwood players particularly and it was necessary for local linos- man ken laushway to speak to him on several occasions to bolster the visiting official so that the game could continue it seems to be fashionable today to contin ually squawk over official decis ions and its one that should be curbed most strenuously goalie westbrooke left himself wide open for a threegame suspension for his language used on the referee the clippers are as guilty as any of the visiting clubs for their con tinual beefing there is a definite- ignorance of the rules on the part of some and merely a grandstand exhibition by others for the ohas pari they should certain ly see that a higher brand of official be assigned to these senior games than that which was witnessed here saturday night brampton beats unionville 4 to 2 firing three goals without

occasions to gain a 55 draw with markham here on monday night the millionaires didnt show the snap and drive of former performances and seemed extremely weak in clearing around their own net galand fast skating newcomer to the markham squad was by far the best player for the green- shirts with four goals two of them on lone rushes lekine was top man for the spitfires blink ing the light on three occasions and being dangerous every time out shewechuk captain for the visitors fired the tying goal just three minutes before the end of the game to send the contest into overtime neither team threatened to any extent in the extra ten minutes although the spitfires continued to press as they did throughout the greater part of the contest i in the first period markham started fast and

as they scored a 63 win over collingwood the clippers started the game three men short with bradbury out with a shoulder ailment and mccrone and hoch berg failing to show up hardly had the second period got under- way when minton suffered a head injury when he collided headlong into stark as they both were cross ing the blueline in the collingwood end he was helped off the ice where his injury was given doc tors attention coach bangay had to bank his hopes on two forward lines which came through with two goals in the latter part of the second period and a lone marker in the third to take the game couch continued to head the scor ing parade with two goals gibson who is proving to be one of the most potent baekcheckers on the team went ail out in an offensive by jim thomas way as well as with a goal and two assists to his credit gowing turn- ed in the hot effort for the visitors with two markers cockrane notch ed the other tally minton opened the scoring as he banged in gibsons rebound stark who played a great game all night set up the play the period ended with the clippers leading 10 at 159 of the second couch netted his first tally after clarke had let drive with a hard blueline shot four minutes later colling wood broke the ice on a play that looked from a spectators view point a way oil side the long pass put cockrane in the clear giving rhodes no chance on the play with allan of the shipbuilders serving time couch drove a shot from behind the net which hit a skate and caromed into the twine the visitors suddenly caught fire as gowing netted the rubber twice the goals being only seconds apart this set the homesters back on their heels as they realized that their two goal lead had been wiped out at 1143 however gibson flipped a pass to stark standing in front of the open net george made no mistake and put his club in the lead to stay near the end of the period lewis slapped in clarkes shot to give the clippers a 53 lead the third period was a shoot-and- chase battle with both goalies having to be extra good on break aways only one goal was scored that by gibson from sayliss at 175s the crowd failed to see the much talked about eddie bush who failed to make the trip but the officials were given a tough night without the presence of the husky rearguard as his team argued and complained about al most every play wilson of osh awa and ken laushway bandied the game there are stacks of logs available for the taking along the way of the 400foot wide swath that was cut through the bush from des joachims on the ottawa river to minden in

alliston 100 by jim thomas playing in the newly built allis ton arena before a very slim crowd of home fans the clippers scored tin easy 100 victory and gave goalie rhodes his first shutout of the season the locals skated through their opponents almost at will and gave buffy in the royals cage a busy night the fast skating locals took advantage of their weak opposition to add to their scoring totals sayliss was top man for the night scoring three goals minton and lewis each connected for two sayliss started the scoring after three minutes of play on passes from stark and mccrone lewis tallied his first goal two minutes later and sayliss added another with stacey of the royals in the penalty box at 1111 hopper and hochberg combined to set lewis up for his second goal and give the clippers a 40 lead near the end of the period minton picked up a loose puck at centre to skate in alone and pull buffy completely out of the net for his first tally of the night in the second period polly open ed the scoring as he skated in alone to pull exactly the same play as on his previous goal stark then made it goal number seven and hopper added another to end the period in the final twenty minutes the clippers held the puck in the allis ton end most of the time as they seemed determined to give rhodes a perfect night only two goals were scored by sayliss and bangay to run the count up to the double figures it was a poor game for the fans to watch especially since the alliston club is in such a critical financial state but that fact didnt hold the clippers back as they
