insurance was purch ased by the club last week and it proved its worth in the first encounter as gamecock Don atom bomb denfenceman suffer ed a broken collar bone and will be out for a month It happened in midice and was unnoticed as was sandwiched by two Elmira players one with a high stick There was no penalty but we cant blame the officials The game was one of the clean est weve ever seen and Bob Peters actually could have had a clean slate as the Aurora pen alties to and Fines were borderline Got to hand it to that team for clean play Bigger than Aurora they played the puck all the way and quite a few teams could take some lessons from both the Polar Cubs and the Bears If we had to pick a star-of-the- future off the Aurora team at present wed have to look fav orably at 15yearold Bobby The kid has plenty of speed fight and a good shot He plays his wing well and two goals were the direct result of being in position as he was posed to be So far the younger members of the squad have showed the way to those who have had more experience and have only a short time left in junior Captain Keith Callings of course is the niftiest stick- handler In the loop and especial ly potent when the team is short Please note but dont sup pose they will members of the Aurora Arena Commission the present sound system is totally Inadequate cant be heard clear ly and needs to be retired Its tho poorest of any for miles around and even the dul cet tones of which out beautifully from most mikes sound scrambled at Aurora We liked th6huitroH5raH Winters on the Aurora defence but his play would bo improved by more passing The blucllnc foursome went back around their own net too much In of flipping the puck out and as a result Joe Burks hod shots to handle he didnt need to even ace Tho goal was a pure gift as the defence left a loose puck and had no chance at all has work to do with his defence Another thing we noted was the tendency of tho Aurora team to keep on the attack after a lead had been Thats all right if team is sagging under on but with only a short left playing defensive hockey by way of lotting the puck come to you and then away for quick breaks In our opinion is sounder Oh well its easy to second guess from the sidelines Norm brother of pit cher Billy and a stalwart of tho now dormant Softball club Is a and Norm has club formed to which pigeon landers are
