DURKHAM 3, HARRISTON 2 The first of home and home games of second round, Senior Northern gemiâ€"finals, was played in Harriston Friday night, when Durham carried away a 1 goal lead.

Not that he favorâ€" ed either side but he apparently was not well posted as to rules.

There was a keen ice sheet and Cully Rocker of Listowel kept a fast game well in hand. At times it was inclined to be rough with Durham as the chief ofâ€" fenders. Harriston was handicapped by the loss of their best player, Pritchard, who had two ribs bent in during the game at Harriston three days before.
