Quebec. Chris Sut- ton and Rocky Pautalone scored for Thornhill. Much of the credit. also, must. go to Brian‘ Stankiewicz for brilliant goal- tending. An interesting prelude 10 the game in the form of an ex- change of gifts took place on theiice shortly before the start- ing whistle when the Indians presented each of the ’l‘hornhill players‘ with a single-feathered headdress and received. in re- turn. a miniature replica of the wellrknown symbol of Quebec‘s Winter Carnival. The Indians were accompan- Ied by Chief Max Gros Louis vigorously beating on the tome toms in a vain effort to spur his team on to victory. Not- withstanding his team’s crushq in‘g defeat. however. the chief graciously. invited our boys and‘ personally conducted them on a tour of the Indian reserve. 'l‘hornhill Peewees played three games. the highlight of which, no doubt, was the sec- ond one played against “Les [ndiens du Quebec“. This; highly-rated and very popular team in Quebec was eliminat- ed from the tournament as a result of Thornhi‘ll’s win by a score of 6-1.
