Carnegie in the local net racked up his first shutout of the season, as the home crew well outplayed the visiting Little Britain pucksters, as indi- cated by the score. : In the first period Bob Healey tallied first, after six minutes of play and then added another short- ly after the twelve minute mark, with Don Marks getting an assist on the second tally. This ended the scoring for the first twenty minutes, LEE N . The teams battled back and forth on even terms during the second stanza with no scoring oc- curing until the period was about eighteen minutes old; at that point the locals surged ahead 8-0 and then 4-0 as McKee and Don Marks rapped home two quick ones that gave the home sextet a comfort- able lead. The final period that suffered from inability to carry the puck easily on the soft ice saw the visit- ors rap home the final tally of the game, this one coming less than a minute from the end of the con- test as Ken Marks drove home Bob Healey's pass to bring the score to 6-0 for Port Perry. Despite the rather slow tempo of the game, it did have some sparkling exhibitions of puck: handling with Gordie Carnegie of Port Perry aggregation turning in a fine chore in goal to bring him a well-deserved shutout, which his play in _many previous en- counters has easily merited.

M.H.A. treated. the home fans to the most thrilling game of the sea- son in Port Perry Memorial Gar- dens as they downed the visiting Newmarket pucksters 4-8 in over- time. Keith VanCamp opened the scoring for the visitors as he banged home a pass from Dave Johnson after six minutes of play. Gibson .put the home squad two goals up 'less than a minute later with Don Cochrane drawing an assist on the marker. But the fast skating front line of Newmarket put their squad right back in the contest just past the midway mark of the period as Wayne Robinson took Don Barker's pass for a 'pic- ture goal that saw Barker race the length of the boards and follow up with a perfect pass-out with Robinson having only 'to slap it home bringing the score to 2-1 in favour of Port Perry. That was the score with which the aggressive juveniles began the second period of fast and rugged play and deésite the fact that four minor penalties were handed out by referee Cliff Gunn no scoring took place during the second stan- za. Both teams came up with fine scoring opportunities during this session but Owen in the 16cal cage and Glen Langford in the visitor's net were outstanding. The third period was a hectic one and the largest crowd of the season to see a juvenile encounter were loud in their applause of the youngsters who played sensa- tional hockey throughout the 20 minuites of play. Midway through sank fhother pass from Barker to knot the score at twg-all from a 'scramble in front of Owen who ap- parently had the puck long enough i Roe ol the stanza Newmarket's Robinson. for a.whistle which eventually did come and quite an argument fol- lowed when the Port lads claimed that the light had gone on after the whistle. Referee Gunn allow- ed the goal after consulting with goal judge and when no further scoring occurred during the period, thethird period ended in a tie, the first such occurrence in Port Perry this season. In the ten minutes overtime that followed John Sheldon of the home sextét gave Port Perry a 8-2 lead after two minutes of play but a minute later Newmarket's start- ling forwards roared back to again knot the count 3-all as Rob- inson set up Barker for the visit- or's third tally. But -with less than three minutes left to play Gibson of Port Perry sank the game-winning counter as he lifted the puck by Langford from a scramble in front of the New- market net. With the visitors put- ting on the pressure to the final Second of the remaining minutes the contest ended with- the hom- sters the victors 4-8. eg While the two goalies merited all-star rating, the defensive work of Harry VanCamp and Cliff Ne- well of the victors and the offen- sive play of Robinson and Barker of theloosers was outstanding in a game that provided 70 minutes of unusually fine hockey.

Annual Meeting ANNUAL MEETING .OF PORT PERRY, REACH and BCUGOG AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY The Annual Meeting was held in the Public Library on Tuesday, January 8th, with the President, Fred Christie, in the chair, and 28 people present. ° Reports from the President, the Committee Chairmen and Treas- urer all showed that the 1961 Fair was successful in every way. The President complimented the com- mittees on the management of the Fair. He said that in the past the Fair seemed to be a jump or two ahead of the management but that this year we had pretty well caught up and things had gone off well. The chairmen reported good exhibits in each section or class. Mr. H. L. Fair, the Agricultural Representative reported on the 8 Boye' Clubs. There were 22 out of 23 entries finished in the Dairy Calf Club. A good record and jan extra good show he said. Inthe Grain Club, which is co-sponsored by the Port Perry Lions Club-- they supplying the registered seed, there were 11 finished the contest. No harm can ever be "done by bringing in registered seed into a community. There was also a tractor-driving demonstration co- sponsored by the Brooklin Junior Farmers in which 6 prizes were paid. These Club shows were all interesting and instructive. The Treasurer's report showed the best year yet, financially. With a gate receipt of $2,070.00, a big increase in the Provincial Grant and an increase in donations, it brought the net receipts for the the year up to $5,965.00 including $144.00 that was outstanding but has since come in. The prize money amounted to $3,715.00 not including horse race purses. A very pleasant part of the meeting was a presentation of a fine Chime Clock to the President in honour of his approaching mar- riage, which took place on the fol- lowing Saturday in Toronto, wh Mr. A. R. Johns made the present- ation in a few well chosen words telling of the splendid work Fred had done as President of the Fair. His first Fair was in 1942 when the gate receipts were $175.80. The Fair has come a long way since then and Fred deserves a lot of credit for the growth. This was a complete surprise to Fred but he was very pleased and thanked all who liad had a part in the gift, very graciously. There was just one change made, in the officers for 1952. - Leslie Smith was made Honor- ary Director and Clare Vernon was elected a Director in his place. mother Wed in Toronto PORT PERRY MAN WEDS IN TORONTO In Kimbourne Park United Church, Toronto, recently, Fred G.
