KENBINGTON DEFEAT HOLMANS 5-2

I On Tuesday night Kenslngton and Holman! of Summerside, again bat- tled for supremo y in the seventh game of the Prince County frater- mediate League for the A. E. Mac- Lean Hockey Trophy at Kensington. Despite the uneven score, it was a well fought game which was thor- oughly enjoyed by the spectators. Woodside scored the first goal for HOImii-lfs within three minutes of the face-off. The outstandin, feature of the match was the excellent hockey played by Murphy and mahaven for Kensington. If these boys keep up their good work no doubt by next year their names will appear on the Crystal line-up. The nnal score was 5-2, in favor of Kensington. This places them in a good position for the Central Section of the league. In Tuesday night's game both goalies were kept more than busy, Woodside in defense of Holman! draperies “will: the ,, number of stops. The next gains in the league will be played at Summerside on Tuesday next, the 12th inst, when the C. Y. M. L. "of Suminerside will line up against the Kensington boys. There should be great interest in this game, since a

win for the latter team would put the C. ‘if. M. L. definitely out of the running for the MacLean Cup. Let Kenaing‘ a try to do It, if they can, is the way the Summer-aide boys are talking. Enough said.—8.

i‘ by the opposition. The "Cat" is one of these‘ birds who comes from be- hind nicely and doing this- makes him a great favorite with the fans who like their action. Hudkins nev- er dlsappolnts them. But the Ne- braskan has had a rough and seamy career in the roped arena and if he can't get a. crack at a title when he is most surely in line for it then he figures it is time to retire and he's very likely to do it.

Walker was supposed to meet the

but under the slick management of Jack Keams, the Bulldog is likely to avoid the issue. Kearns believes in keeping his champions well under cover and there'll be plenty of parry- lng before the match is made-if ever. The site tor such a battle would be a problem unless the boys can de- cide on New York City. Ace will never again attempt to lift the crown off Mcikey's dome in Chicago and Ace is too big a favorite on the Panama Coast for Walker to want to take the chance surrounded bypr- anges and sunshine. With new ar- enas at Detroit and Boston there is a possibility in two other spots. But it's a question whether it ever wbl materialize. And that despite the fact that it would be a sell-out wherever and whenever staged. Hudkins, born almost in poverty.

favorably with the brand doled out m the Eastern Nova Scotia league? such is the question which is being discussed a great deal in Pictou Coun- ty at the present time. The approach of the play-oils for the Nova Scotia title has stimulated interest in the matter and arguments both pro and ‘con are heard daily. New Gll-BSOW hockey followers who have seen the Eastern League teams in action state definitely that there is little to choose between the squads. It is fully recog- nized that a somewhat different brand of hockey is played in the two len- gues. The A.P.C. League, with its open brand of hockey early in the season, resulted in many games of large scoring. On the other hand the closely matched teams of the ‘Easi- ern division ieatiued with nip anri tuck affairs with small-scores. In regards to the players, taking them man for man, it is pointed out quite strongly here that there is little dif- ference.

WOLFVII-LE, Feb. 'I.-- Scoring the winning goal near the end of the first overtime period, Acadia today won the championship of the Valley League, defeating Wolfville by the score 2-1. The game was nip and tuck throughout, each team scoring a. goal in the second period. The free use of subs by Acadia led to the downfall of Wolfville. the latter be- ing without the services of Capt. Lloyd Vaughan, who has been out of the last three games due to an in- fected ioot, and also Harry Hoyt of Canning. The only sub used was Re- Bln who relieved Parker for a time in the third period The winners, play ed a more aggressive game and uscci more team work. Every man on the team was a star, McLean and How- ard being especially effective on the defence. Bishop did not have as mil-fly hard stops as Munro but what he had were handled in top notcn fashion. Munro was the shining light on the Wolfville team. His sensational stops time after time saved what looked like sure scores. The town forwards played a wonderful block- "18 game. Johnson being specially ei- fective with his poke-checking. Bin-

bhop and Bezanson played hard

through the whole seventy minutes and Lyons and Parker played their usual steady game on the defence. The Acadia students are Jubilant to- night over the victory of their team, while the Wolfville fans are natur- ally disappointed. It is a satisfaction

, to them that the championship is to

remain in town, Wolfville having two players, Johnson and Williams, on the Acadia team.

About four minutes after the overtime started Buckley skated through the defence, Munro blocked his shot, but the rubber lay about ten feet in front of the goal and before Munro could clear Buckley pushed it ‘in. Although the Wolfville team played hard to even the count again the pace was beginning to tel], on them and with Acadia playing o. de- fensive game they were unable to break through.

M’KENNA NAMED

NEW GLASGOW, Feb. 7- Local boxing followers were quilte pleased i0 see Jack McKennifs name class- ed in the late Tex Rickard: ranking of world boxers on their record for 1928. This selection was made in this month's edition of ' the Ring, widely known boxing magazine. McKenna is classed in fourth place in the fourth division in the middleweight class. He is rated ahead oi such stars as Jock Malone, Joe Zlnck, Harry Fuller and others. McKenna is well known here, having spent part of his early life in New Glasgow and of later years competing in one or two box- ing bouts in the Stellartcm Arena. This is an excellent showing for hard-hitting Jack, who only a year or so ago broke into the big racket. and furthermore taking into consid- eration that there are over seven thousand boxers fighting at the pre- sent time in the middleweight ranks throughout the United States.
