3VS ONDIW PAGE SIXTEEN THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE HAMILTON SRS. EDGE MARLIES, OVERTIME GOAL Hamilton, Feb. 26--(CP)--A slashing shot by Bill Dinning glanced off a leg and ended the longest game in years here last night as Hamilton Tigers defeated Toronto Marlboros, 6-5, to take a one-game lead in the best-of-seven Ontario Hockey' Association senior "A" semi-final playoffs.

"wat Mason drove the opener home while Marlies were short- handed at the outset, only to have Johnny McLellan knot the count three minutes later. Ray Hannigan then put the Dukes in front, but Clare Shillington equalized then with Johnny McCormack serving a penalty. Ab Conick ran in Tigers' third goal near the end of the per- iod. The teams were short-handed in 'the second, both referees dishing out penalties free- ly to keep the tilt under control, and when Shillington notched a goal after two minutes Tigers appeared to have a safe lead.
