at flap Emms palace when Gult Black Hawks visited in full force mood Shell out was in the milk ing and the Flyers obllzixl Before cheering mob which numbered over 3090 the visiting Hawks handed the Barrie favor itcs 32 loss the first on home ice this season it could be expected Last year when Emms traded Ford and Great to Gait along with two other play ers and deuce in return the same two made gvery game on the sched ule tough One for Barrie Especially so in lhe Flycrs home new season with new players Ford and Green still hold the bitter thoughts of revenge in their minds It was llttle early for their haunting pranks but they made Emms and company very uncom fortable as they paced Gait to their fourth straight victory George Ford who relies on fastskating game tallied the open ing two counters for the Hawks while Ken Green sunk what prov cd to be the winning marker Icrritorially Barrie held wide margin But it was superb dis play of netmlndlng by brilliant Clarke Sommcrvllle that meant the final knockdown of the Fly ers Sommerville was more than ter rific He was miraculous When the Flyers began their famous power drive midway through the second to the end of the third it was Sommerville who came to the llnwks rescue and only Som mervillc To illustrate Sommervilles amaz ing feats of the end of the secdnd perlod Gait performed forgo min ute and half with two men short Barrie ma aged their first goal during th munadvantage but still Hogg had to hammer the disk twice from pileup before pound ing it by Sommervllle Throughout the continual Barrie thrusts the lone perSOn standing between success was Sommervillc Flyers were weakened in player strength due to injuries to defence man John Shedden and forward John Bobenic Shedden is nurs ing torn cartilege while Bobenic has mangled knee cap and torn ligaments The weakness certainly was evi dent when Barrie had men advant gtGalt had two penalties in the first period and the homesters couldnt as much as muster

drew lone de fcnccman Ward Brandow over and passed to Ford The latter tired from close range Barrie didnt break the goose egg until 1756 of this second Roy Trussell and Jack Price were in the cooler when Hogg climaxed threeway passing play between Stan Inn and Real Chevrels off crowded Sommerville cage Flych kept pressing thy 64 adlt vanta but couldnt connect al thoug they kept the spectators on the edge of the seats with thrilling moments Gait led off the third at 238 Barrie gauging thrust was stymied at centre and the Hawks soared three abreast on rookie defenceman Orrin Gould Bronco Horvuth easily pulled Gould out of position before laying perfect relay to Green The Cult forward nipped the short side From there in it was all Barrie They showed organization on at tuck for the rst time and con tinually heaved pucks in Sommer villes direction Penalties to Real Chevrels and Bob Taylor nine seconds apart along with Jack Green of Gait had the picture anything but rosy from Barrie standpoint However effective defenceman Ward Bran dowsoothed the sltuntionby gm nering an unassisted counter Picking up loose pupk at his own blueline Branddw buffed and pulled to the Gait citadel for his first marker of the season The crowd went wild over the favorites earnt Brandow almost connected for his second shortly after Sommer breakaway ville lust getting indie way on drive from the

showed Enough to warrant another outing Galt figured theyhad counted goal in the third period when they hillthe goal post The flight plenton but the officials ruledit wasnt in The Hawks upset the Flyers on hustle something which we have lacked for long inter val In our opinion Hogg Mc Carthy Zantta and Brandow were Barries best Gait havent too much as welldrilled club goes but netminder
