UST ONE STEP away from the highest honor that can be be- stowed in an amateur

hockey, Halifax Wolverines tackle Port Arthur Bearcats tonight in the second game of the Allan Cup finals and although the outcome is very much in doubt, the Maritim- ers, should they show a semblance of the form they displayed against Montreal Royals tonight will be wearing the proud mantle that has adorned the now defunct Moncton Hawks for the past two seasons.

LTHOUGH RETURNED victors in the first engagement by s

- - 3-2 count ‘the Wolves failed to impress the fans who attended the game. Halifax scribes fail togive the victors a greatdeal of credit, attributing the win rather to the poor sniping ability of the western- ers, and in this respect here is what orls well-known Haligonian writer has to say of the game: "Al- most continually the fighting Westerners outplayed the Eastern contenders, bottled the Wolverines up in their own end of the rink with a sweet passing attack, but

lacked the polish to take com- mend." ,c c e UT THIS OAN BE attributed in a large measure to the gruel- ‘ ling series which the Stuart- ccached team has‘ Just gone through. The four games bitterly fought all the way through put a severe test on the stamina of the Maritime representatives who had been in comparative idleness for nearly two months and in this writer's opinion was largely re- sponsible for the poor showing of

the Wolves against the Port Ar-

thur representatives, I O O

OWEVER. WOLVERNEQ are ‘one game up no matter how "they "performed and tonight as they go into the second game are in the driver's seat. The Bearcsts, while they are still mighty form- idable foes and are to be reckoned

with highly, will have in show big improvement if they are to pro- long the series. Wolverines should and probably will perform much better tonight and if such turns out to be the case then all that we can predict is a Wolf victory, a result that will give to these sea- side Provinces its first hockey rep- resentstive at the Olympic Games, if be held in i936 at far-off Ber- n. - O l I

HE ABOVE HONOR. is‘ well worth battling . for and no doubt the Haligonians, on the verge of making their dreams come true, will once more hit their real stride and prove beyond a doubt that the brand of hockey played in the Maritime rs ’ ., “ is- still superior to that displayed in other Provinces. .
