as coach of Port MoJacks By John B. McClelland Port Perry Star Making tough deci- sions comes with the ter- ritory when you're the manager of a Junior hock- ey club, and in his more than 20 years with the Port Perry ModJacks, Murray Parliament hds had his share of difficult ones. But it's probably fair to say that none has been tougher than the one Sunday morning when he told his close friend Chic Carnegie that he would no longer be coach of the Junior C MoJacks. The decision to make the change was "certainly not for lack of effort on Chic's part," Parliament explained after the game Sunday night, in which the MoJacks defeated the 1 REID'S - YOUR INDEPENDENT GROCER NELLIE WESTERMAN RIDGEWAY BBQ BACK YARD SHOPPE SCUGOG LUMBER PHILP PONTIAC BUICK 7.

Lakefield Chiefs 5-4 in overtime, "Chic is certainly not a quitter, but I felt the team was not responding to his (coaching) methods," said Parliament. He went on to say that Carnegie had grown increasingly frustrated with some of the players this year, and the overall inconsistent play of the team which would see them win a game, then lose one. Parliament had a meeting with Carnegie Sunday morning and broke the news to the coach, who has spent nearly four seasons behind the MoJack bench, two as an assistant and the rest as the head man. "He (Carnegie) has Turnto Page 28 20.SEAGRAVE STORE 21. DOLLAR PLUS STORE 2 KFC 23. FLIELER'S 24. SQUARE BOY PIZZA 25. CIRCULAR SOUNDS 26. PETE'S PAULMAC PET STORE 27. STEDMAN'S 28. FOOD BASICS 29.

McClelland Port Perry Star It won't go into the books as a classic hockey game, but the Port Perry MoJacks will gladly take the win and another all-important two points in the standings. Leading sniper Rob Simms potted the winner midway through a sudden death overtime period Sunday night at the Scugog Arena as the MoJacks downed Lakefield Chiefs 5-4 in Central Junior C action. ; Simms made no mistake in front of the Chief net as he pounced on a Mike Pigeau rebound and fired a back-hand from about 15 feet out. Simms' goal capped a wild final few moments as the MoJacks blew a 4-2 lead late in the third period, allowing the Chiefs to score twice in the final two minutes of regulation time. What looked like a comfortable 4-2 lead evaporated into thin air as the Chiefs Eddie Hill made it 4-3 at 18:20 of the third, and they tied the contest on a wild scramble in the MoJack goal crease with 51 seconds left in regulation. Scott Murduff got credit for the goal, which appeared to have been blocked on the line by MoJack defenseman Scott Heasman.
