NSIVE Thursday, December 6, 1973 Johnson Sparkles As Hershey Bears Tie For Top Slot ByEDPONESSA Daily News Sportswriter HERSHEY Bob Johnson played his finest game of the season for the Hershey Bears last night here in the Hershey- park Arena and his teammates erupted for four goals in the third period for a 5-1 American Hockey League victory over the Nova Scotia Voyageurs. The victory moved the Bears into a tie with idle Cincinnati for the AHL South lead, but the Swords hold four games in hand. It also extended Hershey's margin over third-place Baltimore, also idle last night, to six points, with the Clippers having played five fewer games. Johnson turned back 44 shots in lowering his goals-against- to 3.15 and stopped many shots that had goal written all over them. His best defensive effort was when he stopped a second-period breakaway at the 14-minute mark with the score tied.

Gradishar and Richard Wood of Southern California were named as the linebackers and the defensive backfield featured Mike Townsend of Notre Dame, Artimus Parker pf Southern' California, Dave Brown of Michigan and Randy Rhino of Georgia Tech. This year's All-America squad, which was selected by sportswriters and sportscasters from across the nation, is one of the youngest in- many years.

Six of the 22 first- team choices are underclassmen. Griffin is a sophomore, while Leaks, DeCree, Wood, Brown and Rhino are juniors.

Following the Bears' fourth goal, Johnson was called upon to make three quick stops and he was looking more and more relaxed and confident as the game progressed.

Power-Play Goal While Johnson seemed to have the situation in hand after John VanBoxmeer scored the only power-play goal of the game for the visitors on a 35- foot slam from outside the left circle that found the upper righthand corner of the net his teammates were having difficulty penetrating Dave Ellenbaas' armor. An excellent opportunity arose for the Bears when Ron Andruf and VanBoxmeer were whistled of at 18:12 of the first period, but Hershey failed to take advantage of the situation as the slow-moving period came to a close. Hershey finally saw the red light go on behind the Nova Scotia net when Bob McManama poke-checked a Vee defenseman's stick at 3:44 of the second period and saw the puck skid into the unguarded cage as Ellenbaas was out of position and least of all, expecting a Hershey goal. That seemed to light a fire under both squads and the action was an up-and-down the ice affair for the next six or seven minutes. An ice repair at the blue line slowed play for awhile until Johnson stopped that breakaway.

Four minutes later, Hank Nowak missed a backhander from close range on a rebound off the boards and the score held at 1-i after two periods. Game-Winning Goal The third period started slowly but soon the fans were cheering as defenseman D.ennis Owchar got possession of the puck at center ice, moved to the Vees' blue line and unleashed a torrid shot that Ellenbaas couldn't hold onto for the go-ahead and, as it turned out, game-winning goal. It was Owchar's third tally of the season and the second straight unassisted goal of the night for Hershey. Following Johnson's log save on Lemieux, Robin Burns was given a perfect lead pass on his left wing by Steve Andrascik and he outbattled a Vee de- fenseman to slam home a low shot that caught the left corner of the net. Despite being outshot, 24-14, in the final 20 minutes, the Bears made the most of their chances in the Vees end and less than six minutes later, Burns had his second goal of the night and 10th of the season on a close-up shot.

Jim Hrycuik dug the puck out of the corner and fed Andrascik in the slot but his attempted backhander trickled slowly past a Vee de- fenseman to Burns who was camped in front of the net. Hrycuik's assist, his second of the night, pushed him past Hugh Harvey for the team point leadership with 21. Burns, with his two goals, is tied with Harvey at 20 points each and has four against Nova Scotia this season as the top. Bear scorer in that respect. The final goal of the night came off the stick of Don Seiling, who matched Owchar's blast with a booming shot just inside the blue line that went past the outstretched glove of Ellenbaas.

Elaine Stoughton was later robbed on the short side after Harvey fed him perfectly on the right wing and then the Bears killed off a final penalty to Duane Rupp as the Chocolatetowners scored their third win in four games against the Vees.

Barry Arnold's 20 points 19 rebounds led the Raiders to the win, while center Rick Troutman accounted for 19 points and 17 rebounds. Mike Lushinsky, who led the Beavers with 16 points, gave them the first-period lead after the score was tied five times.

Lushinsky opened the scoring in the second period, giving Lebanon Catholic its largest lead of the night (four points), before Elco ran'off nine unanswered points for a lead it never relinquished. Troutman had tied the game at 16 with 6:23 to go in the half and the Raiders took the lead at 5:45 on a layup off a fast break by Jon Gyorke. Their largest lead of the half was nine at 29-20 on successive goals by Arnold, and Rich Mitstifer. After Catholic scored the last two points of the half and the first two of the third period, Elco reeled off- 22 points in a row for an un- mrmountable 51-24 lead. Leading that scoring splurge were Arnold, Troutman, and Gyorke, each with six.

Elco took its biggest lead of the game during that lopsided third period at 54-25 and matched the 29-point difference early in the fourth quarter at 58-29, but the 'Beavers fought back with a 29- point final period, equalling their first three periods output, and closed, the gap to within eight on a couple of occasions.
