Parkinson) Another week having past, there has been considerable written into the basketball record book, most notable of these being the LIONS first DE- FEAT after 12 straight victories. In a game that past all others played here for shrill excitement, a fast and rather rugged aggregation of cagers from Ryerson Institute gave the Lions a 61-60 setback--scoring on a foul'shot in the last 6 seconds of play --just after our lads had missed a. foul shot and a lay-up (which would -have put the gdme on_ice). Despite this we still can't overlook the only two defeats that the Lions have had of 14 tries were both by ONE-POINT | DECISIONS--both being lost in the last minute--and at times when one or more key players were missing. were made for a trip to Oshawa Pres- |' Day of Prayer in the United Church]: ' LIONS journey to BOWMANVILLE | on THURSDAY for the second game : of their best of three play-off will re- | |i Term tests<are commencing next | turn either as 'LAKESHORE INT. 'C' CHAMPS OR WITH THE SERIES ALL-TIED UP with a third game to be played in Port next week. . Before we forget (while this pos- sibly is not the place to write it) we will never forget the SUPERHUMAN EFFORT that the MIDGET HOCKEY |} players showed in CANNINGTON when they held the well-packed CAN- NINGTON LADS to a 8 all tie. The only unfortunate thing about it was that too few saw the game--much bet- ter had that game been Played in Port. Perry. The results of the UXBRIDGE- PORT PERRY H.S. GAMES played here last Friday were--P,P.H.S. BAN- TAMS 50--U.H.S. BANTAMS 8; U. H.S. Jrs. 35, P.P.H.8. Jrs. 27; P.P.H.S: Srs. 50, U.H.S. Srs. 28. For the first time the BANTAMS had some scoring distribution, which if they can continue to improve upon could give them a title--scorers were Carnegie (9), Menzles (7), Doupe (4), James (2), Free (2). The P.P,H.S. Jrs. although loosing - 86-27 came up with their best game (considering the fact that scoring ace Bob Gibson was absent) and gave the visitors a fine game. AIRD and HAYNES lead the attack. 'By loosing this game, P.P,H.S. boys automatical- ly placed U.H.S. as champs of this district in the Junior Division, The senior exhibition tilt was a close game for the first quarter but the home quintet began.to pull away and led by Warriner, Owen, Lawrence and Cornish-they downed the U.H.S. Srs. 50-28, Next Friday P.P.H.S. Bantams and Seniors have a chance to tie Whitby H.S. and force a two-game total point play-off. This will be plenty tough and the only chance of either doing so will be apparent in an all-out team _| effort via practice before and a si- milar effort during the games. Trying to coach basketball seems full of heartaches but we gladly note the bouquet the Lions had thrown at them after loosing their last contest --aquoting from a Ryerson spectator "you have a good bunch of sports and should have won". - STAR OF THE WEEK--BANTAM RAYMOND DOUPE for his sincere effort in extra practice via' which he hopes to give the bantams some extra scoring punch, Monarch Sweet Mixed Pickles, CORN, Colleen Choi 16 0z. ................21¢. ce 20 oz. . denser for 27c.
