TORONTO, Ont.—. Marlboro Seniors and Barrie Flyers em erged from a series of play-off games to with their respective Ontario Hockey Association championships.

It was the third shutout of the year for Red Goaltender Harvey Bennett, and it could not have come at a better time. The tall and string-beanish netminder turned back 18 shots from Flyer sticks.
