Gamblers Tied for First Place By winning 2 out of 3 games this land "Gamblerg" moved into a first place tie with the Sutton 'Greenshirts' in the Tri-County-League. In the Sunderland arena last Wed. night the Gamblers downed the short handed Woodville "Maroons" by a 6-3 score. Led by Kenny Mark who bag- ged a- hat trick and Glen Till with a goal and 4 assists the Gamblers had a tough time subduing the tireless Hu- ghie Cameron and his mates. Single goals by Bill Bradbury and Gerry Hun- ter completed the Greenbank scoring. The Gamblers then journeyed to Sutton on Friday night to battle the "Green Shirts" for first place, In a real fast game the Gamblers lost to Sutton by a score of 5-4 and so the two teams are now in a tie for first place. With about 8 minutes to go in the game, the Gamblers seemed head- ed for victory; as 2 goals by captain Jack Anderson and singles by Bill Bradburn and Mert McKee had given them a 4-2 lead. Then Bill Bradbury and Tom Welsh were thumbed to the penalty box by referee "Sixty" Coom- bes of Lindsay, and this gave the Green Shirts their chance to win the game, as Pringle batted in 3 in a row behind Jackie Owens in the Gamblers goal. Both goal-tenders in this game were sensational as play moved quick- ly from end to end." Then on Saturday night the team travelled to Woodville, and in proba- bly the most exciting game of the season the Gamblers beat Woodville by a score of 7-6. Led by Johnny Hogg, Glen Till and Doug Foster with 2 goals each and Mert McKee with one, the Gamblers came from behind a 6-4 deficit in the second period to score 3 goals in the third for the vic- tory. In the first 2 periods the Gam- blers played a man short most of the time as once again referee Coombes waved a steady parade of Gambler players to the penalty_box.
