WHITBY JUVENILES BEAT PORT PERRY Whitby Juveniles on Monday night blasted out a 6-1 victory over Port Perry in Whitby Arena, After a scoreless first period in which Whitby were hampered by pe- nalties, Pascoe started the scoring off at the 1.10 mark of the second frame on a beautiful solo effort, Just 50 seconds later MacDonald golfed Gates' pass at the blue-line and it ended up in the twine behind Pargeter to make it 2-0. However the boys from Port Perry soon got back into the game when Bradbury combined with Painter on-a nice passing play making the score 2-1 and that 'was how the play ended. In the third period Whitby had it all over their opponents as they domi- nated the play completely. Pascoe scored his second goal at 5.16 when he took Gates' pass from behind the net and banged it in. Midway through this session, MacDonald notched his second tally, assisted by Pascoe, Whit- by's power increased as the game went on, With less than two minutes left they aded two more for good measure. Flett combined with Moore and Pascoe in a passing play around the net at the 18.156 mark and 30 seconds later when Pargeter came out of his net to stop a Whitby rush. Yuill fired Pas- coe's pass into the open net to make the final count, 6-1. ~ The star of the game was Pascoe for the winners. The work of McEwen in the Whitby cage was a stand-out and left little t be desired. Pargeter for the visitors did much to keep the score down and many Whitby rushes were foiled at the goal mouth, .

He HOCKEY WHITBY JUVENILES PLAY 1-1 TIE IN PORT PERRY RINK : (Oshawa Times-Gazette) Whitby Juveniles battled to a 1-1 tie last Wednesday night in Port Perry in the opening game of a two- games goals-to-count series in the first round of the O.M.H.A. provincial playdowns. The game was a real thriller, There was plenty of action at both ends of the rink and both McEwen of Whitby and Pargeter for the homesters displayed great skill in the nets. The Whitby team were greatly hampered by the small ice surface and as a result there were plenty of offsides. The opening 20 minutes were score- less, forth and both netminders were kept busy. Whitby drew 3 penalties to their opponents one but they managed to withstand the pressure. when short- handed. Midway through the second session Bradbury scored the first goal of the zame when he banged: in Hochberg's pass with Whitby shorthanded. Port Perry's lead was shortlived however. Just three minutes later Mitchell nétched the tieing counter when he combined with Kaiser and Moore on a nice passing play around the net. That was the end of the actual scoring but both sides missed several fine oppor- tunities. The final frame was a little rougher, Both sides were reduced to four men when a pair of players from both sides were penalized in short order, The final whistle sounded before either side could break the deadlock so now Monday night's contest in Whitby will be -the deciding game. For the homesters it was the first line of Brad- bury, Taylor and Painter who carried the play with Hochberg showing well on defenge while Gates, Moore and Pascoe were the pick of the Whithy sqhad, WHITBY-- Goal, McEwen; defense, Lowe, MacDonld; for, Gates, Yuill, Pascoe; alt.
