On Score Following Annual | Firemen-Businessmen Game Those broken down fugitives from the penalty box, the Firemen and Businessmen were at it again Tuesday njght in their annual duel for the South Side days later there is still some One Cattle Charge Fined. on Second A charge of fraudulently ta- King cattle laid against Charles Dixon Lauder was dismissed in. police Court Saturday at 100 Mile House by Magistrate M.

Whatever the outcome, fans of the meeting. - the goal with the puck caught in his skate. Naturally Irvine assumed he had taken his shot and lost interest in “Newsy’s at- tempts to gain a vertical posi- tion. As the businessmen’s last h -the-puek- hehi seemed well pleased With. th effort. Our roving reporter oyer heard a couple of fans after the game discussing merits of the Players and sugesting the selec tion of an all-star businessmen- firemen team for next year’s Canadian entry in the Olympics. Another fan of tender years was heard to say “That's hockey? Those old crocks are for the birds.” We later ascertained that it was a Quesnel visitor talking. The game's first period was scoreless as the players used the entire 20 minutes to get used to their skates; the jfce; their uniforms and the idea that they were atcually taking part in a hockey game again. Vie Sawdust” Imhoff put the commercials ahead after two minutes of furious skating in the second period. “(He was helped over the boards after his feat and was seen only brief- ly afterwards.) Ken “Old Style” Huston got the evener before the period end and came back to beat Gordie “Turk” Rowan early in the third canto to put the smoke eaters in the lead. Somewhere in the second period the Businessmen picked up an- other counter, but referee (fire- man) Gary Hutchinson claimed he had blown the whistle sec- onds before for an offence and wouldn’t allow the goal. Alder “Soupy” Hunter was the com- mercial-sharpshooter who claim- ed he was robbed. There was only five minutes left in the game when a fight broke out and the two forward strings started to clobber each other. All six were escorted to the penalty box, but Bill ‘Joc- ko” Margetts came storming out again when he took offense at Clive “Newsy” Stangoe’s jibes and the fight was on again. Result was a penalty shot award- ed Stangoe, and while he was thanking the referee with tears in his eyes, Fireman goalie Dal “Zero” Irvine thoughtfully turn- ed his goal around. We give you two accounts now of this contentious goal that went up on the scoreboard but not on the Firemen’s books. FIREMEN’S ACCOUNT To begin with, there is abso- Jutely no truti in the rumour that Irvine switched his goal around. The truth of the mat- ter is that Rowan did it the period before and we just hadn’t noticed it. Stumbling in for his penalty shot, Stangoe picked up the puck at centre ice, lost it twice and then tripped over the blue Ine, sliding head first past bone _brquent he net ane he lost i: again-and' it dribbled| jy. BUSINESsMen ss Disputing our goals is a com-| mon occurrence with the Fire- men. They have members of the brigade refereeing, keeping time, keeping score and handling any other official job, but this time they slipped up. One impartial official got on the scoreboard and our last goal was counted officially. Irvine turned the goal around himself. He did it so many times during the game that there were times when he was standing be- hind it instead of in front. He should be barred from playing for at least a year. The only thing wrong with the referee’s decision to give Stan- goe, the innocent victim of a maliciois atttack by Margetts, a penalty shot was that it should have been two. With perfect coolness, our player picked up the puck and went roaring in on Irvine, but the goal tender came out of his crease by six feet and tripped Stangoe with his stick. As he went by the goal, “Newsy” spot- ted Irvine’s trick with the goal and as he regained his feet he sank his shot home irom the rear. The Firemen had 12 players on hand and the Businessmen 17. Manager of the smokeaters was Fred Hutchinson and Ben- ny Abbott handled the commer- cials. Players were: Firemen — Ir- vine, Moore, Jim Blair, Mar- getts, Place, Fourt, Rhodes, Jus- ton, Curtis, Woodland, Poirier and Anderson. Businessmen — Rowan, Sudgen, Bill Smith, Gib- bons, Sharpe, Galbraith, Boehm, Jackson, Issigonis, Stangoe, Dil- labough, Hunter, Imhoff, Snider, Carson, Bothamley and Ted Leavitt. Only casualty was Gale Gal- braith, who was carried off the ice after smashing into the boards and pulling a muscle in his knee.

They kept within one point of the Stampeders up to the end of the second period, but were outscored 4-2 in the final frame. Game score was 8-5. Lad who was the pay-off shooter for the Stamps in the final 20 minutes was Phil Pig- eon of Clinton, who rapped. in all four Stamp goals of the per- iod. Phil with his brother, Al- bert and Bruce Pollard added a lot of strength to the local club. Pollard collected two goals in each game and defenceman Al- bert made one goal Saturday. High Stampeder scorer Satur- day night was Gary Hutchinson, who boomed in four markers.
