The West Prince All Stars gained .a measure of revenge over Lot 10 Rangers for a previous defeat by taking a lively contest at Alberton SMUNEY night by a close 7-5 score.

The high scoring line of Stewart. Gnudet and Hardy combined for all three of the home team's mark- ers in the opening rally. 1. Strong- man and Bagloie scoring for the visitors The Rangers forged ahead in the opening minutes of the middle frame, D. Birch and E. Gorrlll earning singles with some smooth combination work which beat Hardy in the All Stars cage. They were unable to main- tain their lead however as the home team rallied strongly for three in a row chalked up by Slew-Bl'l. F. Smallman and B. Mac- Donald.

Each side managed a lone goal in a hard and closely fought final stanza. E. strongman tallying for the Rangers on a pass from I. C at the seven minute mark with defenseman C.
