Acton Tanners face stiff league slate in 1966 67 opener
In the opening game of the 1966-67 season the Acton Tanners tied with two strong opponents as Hespeler and Seaforth showed form while Orangeville lingered at the cellar. A violent in-game incident left three players hospitalised including injuries to Bob Marshall and Jim Cunningham. OHA enforcement of residence rules and roster clarifications loom as the league contemplates future scheduling and potential expansion.
