A N. Y. in 3rd Straight

Win Over Maple Leafs; Wings Halt Canadiens

NEW YORK. Jan. 14-(CP) Tony Lcawlck's third-period goal gave New York Rangers a 2-1 vic- tory over Toronto Maple Leafs be- fore 12.336 National Hockey Lea- gue fans tonight. It was the third straight victory for the RBI!!!" over the Leafs.

Lerwick broke the deadlock at the 18-minute mark of the last stanza. The Leafs desperately tried to deadlock the score again in the dying minutes by pulling out goalie Al Rollins with a little more than one minute left. The six-man attack. however. was iitaved off effectively by the Ranger defence.

It was the sixth goal of season against Toronto for the flashy left-winger and the most any Ranger has against the 1-9355-

THE GUARDIAN, CHARLOTTETOWN

JANUARY 15. 1951

Well, the Cvharloiieiorwn Island-

ers are al. present leading their nearest rivals in the Maritime Senior Hockey League by ihe healthy margin of 23 -points-an all time high for the season thus far- Thelr victories over Halifax and Monclon on Friday and Saturday night's rcspcciivcly an-d HaIifax's loss to Saint John on Saturday be- in'g the reason for the extended lead over their previous record of 21 points.

But this week's l1ia'Y had "5 ”downs" as well as its "ups" for the Island lmckcyists. Stretching a winning streak to eight games u-p to last Thursday. .the Islanders came out on Halifax ice on that night to try to push it to nine with the hopes of a home game here against Halifax and a game against the cellar dwelling Moncton Hawks the next night giving them an opportunity to run their wins to 11 for a. new peak in that de- parimeni. But apparently it wasn't. in the books. Saint Mary's downed the locals in that one important. -battle that spoiled their chances when they Rave -the Islanders their -biggest. defeat. of -ivhe season by is 5-2 margin.

It was the important one too. Be- cause the two following games sa-w the Lamoureux pucksiers away on another start in succes- slve wins, and would have had their big spread of 11 straight ex- cept for that fateful Thursday night tilt that saw the Sainiamari- ans put: up one of the stoutesi. bat- tles of the season-which is more than can be said of the ll-man crew they sent here the following night that took an 8-2 drubbing from (he league leaders.

That particular game is one ihat brings up a new angle from anything -but a new set of circum- stances-tliat of Halifax icing (heir strongest lineu.p over their home ice and a more skeleton for their showing at Charlottetown. The new angle? A nu-mber of their important players being left stranded in New Glasgow on Fri- day afternoon -because their were no "plane" f-lighis out of that centre clue to bad weather condit- ions-while the rest of the team made the trip in a more than com- fortable ”CluIb Bus". The last time it. was Christmas holidays. Remem- bcr? '

It would seem that the Domin- ion Government is going to a lot of unnecessary expense of provid- ing ofificient weather observers for the general information of the pub- lic. At least it appears that way, -because Halifax Hockey Club management apparently didn't known anything about the fact. that "A storm cenvtered south of Cape Breton is causing strong winds and snow over most of ihe Maritimes" which was the fore- cast issued by the Dominion Pub- lic Weather Office for Saturday; Let's see-just where is that oiificc located-oh yes-its in Halifax. or all places. and the Saint Mary's Club hadn't. heard a thing about it-or did they? .

in any OISE. they sure didn't take much troubletoafinvd out.They left some of their -best players there to take a plane that never took otf. But what difference does that make-they don't get any- thing from the Charlottetown gate and they are so far behind new in i-he league that one more loss is no- lhing to worry about. There is still the playoilfs-everybody will bein that anyway.

I

In fact there is even another way of looking at the situation. If the Charlottetown fans get dis- interested enough with watching their team drutb the visitors often enough-may-be they'll stop going to the games--than lsiande . will have to -fold up because of financi- al difficulties-and then it will make one less team to worry about in the playoffs--what a break that migild be for the rest of the league.

v .-....

Well that could happen. But
