ODE AN lO HO) | GM. War eterans oncert Attracts Large Brooklin Lacrossers Win Close Game Over Woodbridge Thrilling Playoff Game Decided In Second Ov- ertime Period at Brook- lin Arena: Amid the roar of cheering specta- tors "Rocket" Richardson scored his only goal of the evening, late in the second overtime period of the game, to carry the torch of victory for Brooklin as they edged out 'Woodbridge 10-9, in Brooklin arena last night. The local Lacrosse fans received their money's worth as the Dodgers took Woodbridge for a second time in a thrilling match which hung in the balance throughout the last few periods. Brooklin took the lead in the first period but Woodbridge made it up and the score was held very close for the rest of the tilt. The action was very fast with the final minutes of suspense holding & the cheering crowd on the edge of their seats. Though Harold Gwyn scored six of Brooklins' goals the whole team must be given equal credit for last night's victory. Art Bradley played his usual good game with many good saves especially in the final minutes when the shots were com- ing thick and fast and when a slip might have cost the game. The de- fencemen were very good, handing out many stiff checks, which some- times jolted their opponents off their feet. The complete line stood strongly on their defensive action, | ehecking hard and covering every 'opposing man well. The co-opera- tiom and team-play of the club showed up in the scoring 'results as eight of the ten goals were scored with assists. Rowntree was top scorer for Woodbridge with four goals while Ellis counted a pair. N. Younge in the nets, played a, good game and warded off many hard shots made dy the Bruisers. Brooklin held the upper hand throughout the first period as they bulldozed their way through the 'Woodbridge line to hold the play in that end for a greater part of the time. The few times Woodbridge carried the play in this quarter they met with stiff checking by the Dod- gers who knocked them all over the x. The Dodgers outshot their op- ponents two to one in this period and came out two goals on top with { the visitors held scoreless. Harold Gwyn counted first on a pass from Tod Lintner. A. few minutes slater Bruce Mitchell carried the ball up the outside to pass to Gwyn who counted with a shot fired as ne fell Just out of the crease. Brooklin continued to count in the second quarter when Don Mit- chell passed to Hugh Ormiston who scored. Gwyn added another a min- ute later after receiving from Ross Lowe. Woodbridge scored their first goal half-way through this period with a pass to an uncovered man in front of the net. Woodbridge scored two more goals as the period rolled by.. Gwyn counted again in this ric] after a pass from Allen ackey. The game roughened up in the third quarter and many penalties were handed out as the referees at- tempted to maintain order. The play was very evenly divided and Woodbridge scored three, compared with two more added to Brooklin's sheet by Gwyn. Woodbridge tied it up at the start of the fourth quarter as the play was held in Brooklin's end for a considerable time. Hugh Ormiston fl finally carried. the ball out of his own sone up through the opposi- tion's line, and on the net for a [fl counter once more giving the Dod- gers the edge. As the period rolled on into the final minute, it looked as if the game was in the hands of the local club, but with only one- and-a-half minutes left, Rowntree came through to tie the count once more. THough Brooklin tried hard to end the game with a sudden goal in the last minute they failed and the game was forced into overtime. The first overtime period was full Looking At Britain BY M. MCINTYRE HOOD Article No. 17 London, En| d, August 22 (By Airmail) -- en we left Oshawa after. midnight on July 31, start- ing our trip to Britain, we took with us a certain number of mis- sions as a program. One by one, these missions are being fulfilled. Today saw another one completed, and in the most happy and delight- ful way. For today we travelled down to the little south coast town of Hythe, and paid a visit to the home of Mrs. S. G. Pursey, Mrs. Jack Aldwinckle's mother. And at the same- time we made a passing return visit to some of the scenes we knew when, as a young lad, we came overseas in 1915 as a private soldier in the Canadian army in the first world war. Many friends of Mrs, Aldwinckle will recall the visit her mother, Mrs, Pursey, made to Oshawa a couple of years ago, for an extend- ed stay, and they will be glad to know that we found her hale and hearty, in excellent health, and enjoying life in come we receiyed from this old friend was warm and tinged with that fine hospi- . tality which ™.M. HOOD typical of Br - ain, We met ou Aldwinckle's .. cer, Mrs. Paddy Bradley, and her two young daughters, lovely and lively children to whom we took an im- mediate liking, and who did their best to persuade us to stay over for another day, but the program would not permit that. Paddy Bradley, Jo's brother-in-law, is a nurseryman and an expert gar- dener, so we had much in common as he showed me around his lovely garden, filled with all the beauty that an English garden can pos- sess. CAMPS STILL THERE Many Oshawa veterans of the first world war, particularly those who did some of their training at Sandling camp, and did their marksmanship tests on the ranges at Hythe, will be interested to know that the camps are still there, and were used in world war two, that Shorncliffe is still a great military area, and that the ranges at Hythe are now used for tank training as well as by infantrymen. We made a day's outing from London of this visit to Hythe, travelling by train from Charing Cross station to Folkestone.

The action rolled along with lightning-like speed and neither side could better their op- ponents to count. A play by the two Mitchell broth- ers clicked with less than half a minute past in the second period of overtime. It looked as if Bruce Mit- chell would hold the honors of scoring the winning goal, but fate had decided differently and three minutes later, Ellis tied it up with a goal for Woodbridge. It was near- ly another five minutes of fast, breathtaking lacrosse before George Richardson scored the winning goal after receiving a pass from Bill Vi- pond. is UNIT HE - aod foo: + 15 KING ST.
