They built up a 4-1 lead in the first period and were held scoreless in the second, witk. Till- sonburg getting one back. In the third, the locals led 6-3 until Ken Albright's third goal of the game for Tillsonburg completed the scoring in the final minute of play. Tommy $impson scored four goals to lead the winners. Paul Slemon and Mike Donoghue picked up the other, with Doug Crough addmng three assists. In addition to Albright's hat trick, Jim Sergeant notched the other counter for Tilîson- burg. The Bowmanville teamn is feeling somewhat neglected by the O.M.H.A. officiaIs who hadl no representative there to present them with the Championship trophy. To celebrate the big win, the team tossed Coach George Cawker and Man- ager Buck,.Cowle in the showers with their clothes on. As Buck said this morning "It was really some- thing, riding borne 160 miles on a bus.. soaking wet!" Memorial Park. Assn.

ESSAY - Gradually the entries for the States- man's Centennial Essay contest are coming in from secondary school students in the area. Dead- line for entries is April l5th. The subject is "My- responsibility as a Canadian." Winning entry will compete in the provincial competition. t f t t t TYPO - An unusual typographical error almost slipped past our alert proof readers-this week. It was a report of a ladies meeting and read: "The President led a sin song." t t t t t CHAMPIONS - These were a couple of big weeks for the old home town. Doris Joîl won the Cana- dian championship for single ladies bowling ini Winnipeg, Sharlene Cain and Connie Bradley took the Canadian Youth Bowling title, the Atoms won the Little NHL provincial championship ini Cobourg on the weekend and last night the Bantani hockey teani defeated Tillsonburg for the Ontario OMHA title. Earlier, Mary Jane Oke and Victor Irving won the junior pairs figure skating champ- ionship for Canada, and from Port Perry, with Durham relatives, Anna Forder and Ricky Stevens won laurels in senior pairs competition. t t t t t LADIES - Anyone interested in entering a teani In the Durham Ladies Softball League is asked to attend a general meeting on Monday, April lOth at Howard Ormiston's, 27 Prince St., or cail hlm for further information. t t t t. t CHANGES - Last week curling closed for the season and, if the weather warms up, there will be a fast switch over fromn ice to greens and fair- ways as the golfers take over. The snow is rapidly disappearing, so it won't be long. Better head for the cellar to see if ail your clubs are intact. t t 'tf tt WRONG - On the sports page this week, Tom Simpson is mentioned under the picture as firing the slap shot that knocked out the Tlllsonburg goalie. We now understand that the puck was shot by another one of the Bantam stars, Mike Dono- ghue, not Simpson. Imuch better structure than the wooden one ,that burn. 'ed down a couple of years ago. Elgin Street residents, Jwill be delighted when it is finished to make the trip downtown much shorter-and more convenient.
