straight win playing a much more rugged brand of hockey than in the prev ious meeting collingwood put on one of their better displays of the season before their home fans only to be outscored by the smoother clipper squad couch led the locals with two goals while mccrone and minton each collect ed a goal and assist the game was poorly handled the boys threw their weight around in the first period and the clippers seemed to be somewhat groggy under the heavy checks however as the game wore on the locals began to hit their stride and their smooth passing plays set them up in front of the net time and again the 52 win kept the clippers atop the oha big seven senior league and ran their unbeaten string to eight straight games collingwoods hard hitting puck- sters notched the first tally at the fourteen minute mark of the first period when cockrane beat rhodes on a scramble around the net slowly the turkey began to wear off and at 1755 sayliss tied the score after smooth working eentreman mccrone set him up in front of the net about half a minute before the end of the period couch put his club in the lead to stay after minton had played the puck into the colling wood end although the period was very rough only two penalties were handed out one to each team in the second twenty minutes the clippers held a decided edge but were successful in scoring only one goal that by minton from bangay at 1625 the play con tinued to be rough as boarding and high sticking went unchecked only one penalty was handed out that to patterson of the ship builders but no damage was done while he was sitting out his time the final frame was a repeat performance of the previous two as coach eddie bush kept his players on the move as he boomed his commands in loud tones from the box early in the period herbie rose had the misfortune of v being hit on the forehead by a glancing puck and had to go off for repairs five stitches were used to close the cut at the six minute mark couch flew in alone on westbrooke to beat the goalie cleanly lewis picked up an assist on the play with patterson of the shipbuilders serving his second two minutes in the penalty box bangay set mccrone in position for the clippers fifth and final goal with a little more than five minutes remaining in the game gowing fired home the ship builders second tally and ended the scoring for the night the officials started to clamp down on the rough tactics in the final twenty minutes when six penalties were handed out the clipper defence showed a decided improve ment over some of the former games as rose clarke machin and hochberg all turned in stand out performances stark was miss ing from the lineup with an injur ed knee so bangay was moved up forward to fill the vacancy there february 15 owen
