It was another story as the third period opened. The front lines centred by Brown and Rut- ledge were really flying during the first ten minutes, at the end of which time a startled Acton crew found themselves facing a 6-2 de- ficit. Boxford rapped home the first counter at 6.05, then Rut- ledge whistled the neatest tally of the night into the mesh two minutes later. Habkirk got his second counter shortly after to build what appeared to be a com- fortable lead. The Acton kids felt differently about the matter, though, and a series of rapid fire passing plays saw Townsley click for two and Vaughan come up with a single- ton to pare down the margin in alarming fashion. Only effective defensive work by Goodale and Milligan, plus Tuck's superlative display in the nets, kept the los- ers from knotting the count.

The loss was doubly disconcerting to the local youngsters in that they were playing before a home crowd for the first time this season, Emory Saulnier, Kenny Brown and Dave Boxford chalked up the Oakville tallies. This trio, ably abetted by Don Rutledge was still peppering shots at the Acton net when the final whistle sounded, in a vain effort to salvage the tilt.
