In the second bhal Iroquois.' didn't have quite as much of their own way but'managed to increase their lead on a.z goal by Mark Bate-_ man, from a Luigi Pepe pasa, 'after 13 minutes and Pepe himself, on a fine shot frorn the edge of the box, made it 3 to 0 just seven minutes later and it, looked as tog the game was a s good as oèver. However, a combina- tion of, an, easing up by the visitora and a'reniew-. ed, surge. by the hoats, resulted in two Picker- ing, goals ,juat. ,six minutes apart with the second, just one minute before the final whistle. But it was too little, too late a nd gave -Whitby its seventh win in nine games and two loases,. one of which was at the banda of this same Pick- ering team at Iroquois Park earlier on in the season.
