J KIRKLAND LAKE JUNIORS WIN 5 TO 3 FROM TIMMINS Timmins Juniors Put Up Good Battle at Kirkland Lake l)ut Were Outâ€" Classed by Speedy Team. A correspondent at Kirkland Lake in reporting the hockey match on Thursâ€" day evening last between the Timmins Juniors and the Kirkland Lake Juniors in‘ the NOH.A. series says that the match was a lively one but that the Timmins Juniors were outclassed by the very classy team of Juniors at Kirkland Lake. The score was 6 to 3 in favour of Kirkland Lake, and the Timmins lads did well at that. Not only are the Kirkland Lake players heavier and more experienced, but the team also comprises some of the pick of the Trappers, the Mariboroughs and cther crack teams in Junior ‘company last year. Continuing the report from Kirkland Lake says:â€" "The game produced a good fast exâ€" hibition of hockey with the winners showing a much better brand and havâ€" ing the best of the play all the way. The visitors worked hard and wers dangerous on many occasions. Stan Burgoyne handled the game well. For Kirkland, Gracile and O‘Connor were the outstanding performers, Gracie seâ€" curing four goals for his team and O‘Connor and Bassett one each. â€" O‘â€" Connor on defence used his body well + *s .. *# *# # + Cad J# # * ® # ## #* # * vs* # *# #* *4 > *# Â¥* ## + *# *# # *# # #4 w # *# # C i + ## «t + + *ue 3“: us oo:n' ® *# “. # * #+* + # ® # t# ##4 + # + # #* w# # # + + #* w# # *# # # ## ## + + + # #4 ## *# *# + + #* ## # L *# *# ## *# w# # *# # # * #. # ## t# > #4 ##4 * 4 * % w# wi _ t C Aualedias* * * *# and harded out some hard bumps which cost him a couple of trips to‘ the cooler. Silverthorne and Roberts made some brilliant rushes and both assisted in the scoring. Britton, in the net, was good, as usual. "Tor Timmins Wadsworth, Krupka, Giallonirdo were the most dangerous, Wadsworth scoring twice and Kupka once. Giallonardo worked hard and was effective at centre. Gracie opened up the scoring early in the first period when Bassett came down on right wing and was skated in the corner but managed to pass the puck through a scramble to "R.J." who shot it past the goalie. He scored again later, when Silverthorne came through at centre ice and took the pass at the Timmins defence and shot hard for the second ~counter. Bertâ€"Well, it ain‘t bad. It‘s a bit harder than hoein‘ turnips an‘ a bit easier than diggin‘ potatoes. An excess of work is far less dangerâ€" ous than an excess of food.

"After three minutes of play in the second period, Timmins scored their first counter, Wadsworth took a pass from Mair close t8 the Kirkland Lake net and Britton in trying to stop Wadsâ€" worth left an open net, resulting in the goal for Timmins, Kirkland Lake imâ€" mediately retaliated. Gracie getting the rubber, passed to Bassett who passâ€" ed back to centre andâ€" Silverthorne made a wonderful snappy pass to Gracie on left who had an open shot and scored making the score 3 to 1, with still 12 minutes to go. After some very spectacular back checking on both teams Gracie again got the rubber and rushed in on his lonesome, scoring again Timmins, not to be outdone, came back strong. Gaillonardo took the rubber from centre and passed to Krupka who took a long shot from the Kirkland blue line and scored. The score was 4 to 2 at the end of the second period. The third period started off with a bang, Kirkland Lake playing defensive and Timmins trying to score which they finally did after five minutes play. Giallanardo with wonderful stick handâ€" ling and back checking managed to work up within ten feet of the Kirkâ€" land goal and passed to Wadsworth who scored easily giving Timmins more heart, but Kirkland again took the ofâ€" fensive and Gracie and O‘Connor rushed together passing and repassâ€" ing. O‘Connor eventualy â€" scoring. With still three minutes to play Bassett took the rubber on a lone excursion and scored again.
