Conquest senior hockeyists sustained their first defeat this season, when they met a like aggregation here Saturday, in which there was not a single dull moment in the whole period, and it was virtually a fight from start to finish. Although defeated Conquest left behind an excellent impression, a team not to be taken lightly, and sportsmen, all of them. The victory was a meritorious feat for the home team, their ranks suffering from the flu and in the fact that only last week they suffered a staggering defeat at Conquest.

The first period was of bright order, fhe visitors demonstrating their best wares, but their shots lacked direction, and was a tale of missed opportunities. The second stanza saw' Tessier on the offensive, bombarding the visiting goalie, who was on his best behavior, frustrating their attempts, time ana again. The third period was a gruelling affair, the visitors working like trojans in an effort to reduce the heavy lead, but their best efforts failed to penetrate the home defense. Custodianship by the Conquest goalie saved the visitors from heavy defeat, turning away thirty shots while the local goalie was only called to stop twelve. Given Present On Silver Wedding VISCOUNT.

KERKOBERT TRIMS UNITY KERROBERT. In a hectic battle on the local ice on Saturday night tin which three referees were used) Kerrobert Intermediates took the hard-hitting Unity team into camp by three goals to nil, incidentally inflicting the first defeat of the season on the Unity sextet. About 400 fans sat in for the entertainment. Smarting under a 5-2 defeat suffered In Unity last Thursday night the Kerrobert team took no chances in this game but tore is with well-organized rushes from the first face-off. Shillington scored early in the first period to put Kerrobert one up.

The second goal came in the second period when Thompson, one of the forwards, breaking through the Unity defense skated in close, sidestepped Jones, the goalie, and cornered the puck for Kerroberts second goal. The third period went goalless until within a minute and a half of the final bell, when Shillington on a lone rush scored from the left boards near the Unity blue line. The Unity team, however, carried a menacing threat throughout the full game, the Mclvqr brothers, McAlpine and Sabine carrying speed and punch in repeated thrusts to the Kerrobert end, only to meet an unfaltering defense in Shillington and Gibson of the local squad. The fast back-checking of the Kerrobert forwards was very effective. Seldom have the local fans witnessed as fine a defensive system as that put up by Gibson and Shillington of the local team on Saturday night and the Unity players, tagged by back-checking forwards, found the Kerrobert blue line a "dead-line beyond which they seldom passed, Picketts in goal taking care of everything they did pass his way.

It is only fair to say that the Unity boys were probably leg-weary as they played three games in as many nights, driving 250 miles between games. Although tempers flared over the rugged checking only four penalties were handed out, each team drawing two. Lineups: Kerrobert Picketts, Gibson, Shillington, Allen, Hogarth, Schwab, Hogarth, Thompson and Gill. Uny Jones, Hoffman, Jan-owski, Mclvor, Noble, Klaehn, McAlpine, Mclvor and Sabine. Referees, Rowbotham, Clendenan and Henderson.
