Re-elect Honey John "Smokey"l Hayes stopped 29 shots to earn a well-deserved shutout as Bowmanville St. Mary's Cernent Redmen defeated Fort Erie 4.0, iast niglit (Tuesday) in Fort Erie. The victory gives the Redmen a 2-0 bulge in the best of five Ontario "A" Minor Juvenile championship series. The teams battled through two scoreless periods, before Bowmanville erupted for their four goals in the final 20 minutes of play. St. Mary's Cernent rnarkers were divided among Joe Hircock, Don Forsey, Rick Woolner and Greg Corden. Third and possibly deciding encounter goes in Fort Erie, Saturday afternoon at 2:30. If a fourth game is necessary, it will be played ai the Bowman. ville Mernorial Arena, 8:30 p.m., Sunday night. Should Fort Erie force the Sunday encounter, the local Arena should be the scene for the largest crowd to attend a hockey game here in many years. Fashion Show Draws. E ~ LAL,.
