The Fla- mingo's 'went to do battle with the League Leaders and on past performances we did: n't expect too much from the boys. But in less than 2 min. of the first period Port were 2-0 in front, and this seemed to trigger off a new: Flamin. go team. I think everyone present had a high regard for the way the boys played this game, with hustle and drive the complete game. face on the team this week is Les Reid. Les has a lot of drive and power. He picked up, his first goal on Saturday. Also a change in coaching Mac McMillan has taken over as coach as Mac cannot play the rest of the season due to an injury. Once again 1 would ask you to come and see our new Flamingo crew. Future games, Monday in Uxbridge, Tuesday Keswick in Port. We must win at least one of these games to make the play-offs as Kes- wick is just 1 point below us. So why not attend and help the boys get into O.H.A. Play-offs. I am sure they will give a good account of themselves.
