Shorthanded Merchanta Live Through Disastrous Week Bowmanville Senior Merchants sunvived a 'lost weekend' when they dropped four games in a now. Thene were reasons if not excuses because holidays left them shonthanded, with Juveniles being brought in to give them enough bodies to function. It ail began on Saturday hene when they lost to Belleville 10-7, but we seem to recail a game against Ajax last Wednesday that ended in a one-sided score for the visitons and is better forgotten. On Sunday, the Kendal Eagles came to town and won 5-3 aften a sudden spunt about the seventh by the Merchants closed the gap a bit. On Monday, barely enough players to man the field went to Belleville where the Merchants wene handed thein founth loss in a now 7-1. They play in Saturday in Oshawa and Sunday in Kendal. Corne home holidayens, you are needed. These two pictunes show some of the sconing in Sunday's game. Juveniles Add Two Wîi, One Lots In Widespread Action Du ring Week 1By L.
