from Tignish in a sudden death contest 6-2. In defeat, young Mc- Rae in the nets for the losers turned in a stellar performance. His mates, particularly in the first two periods, appeared anything but at home on the larger play- ing surface. 0 - - _

In the final canto, however, their more aggressive and organ- ized attack paid off with a pair o! counters while holding the lor-al juniors to a lone score. All but two of the Tignish team are elig- ible for Juvenile hockey and with a bit more competition they may well be a team to ‘be reckoned with in future contests. They are coached and managed by Father Ernest Maclnnis.

Racing fans and horsemen alike audfere-d a disappointment yester- day when the races scheduled in the Inter-Province meet in the af- ternoon had to be called off due to (unfavorable weather. Officials waited until the last possible mom- on/t before admitting to an inter- ruption of schedule. Today, in order to complete (he program, two classes will be rim-off this morn- ing and six this afternoon.

The forced powtponemeflt of yesterday's races was felt keenly, particularly, as it was the Wednes- dsly half holiday and the largest crowd of the meet was anticipated. However. the horsemen reluctant- ly boned to one inevitable when the stcmm continued into (he af-" tsrnoon.

Junior Abbies Wm Island Title With 6-2. Win Qver Tignish

Charlottetown Junior Absgweits won the Island ' junior hockey championship last night, at the Forum, when they defeated the Tlgnlsh Juniors by a 6-2 score.

The Abbles outsksted and out- played the Tignlsh boys for the first two periods to ring up five

counters without s reply. In. the '

third period, however, the Tignlsh Juniors rallied and outscored the Abbies 2-1.

A fair crowd of spectators was on hand for the contest. The Abegwelts~will now play the New Brunswick champions for the two- province title.

The 'I‘ignish boys found the large ice surface to their disadvantage in the early stages of the game and speedy Abbie forwards kept goalie McRae "on his toes" as

.they rained rubber in his general

direction.

The first Abbie goal cameat the l3 minute mark when Mac- Lean realized on a solo effort. Three minutes later Brown on a pass from Carver put the Abbles two up.

The second period had barely got underway when Downs got the third Abbie goal unassisted. Two minutes later Carver made the red light blink when he made good a pass out from Downe at the end of an" Abbie rush. Near the close of the period Andrew scored the fifth Abbie counter on the -end of a two-way play with Carver and Brown.

At ths four minute mark of ths final session Baldwin Arsenault banged home the first marker of the visitors on a pass from Cliff Bernard. The same pair, with Downs in the sinners bin. com- bined for the second and final ‘Tignlsh tally, Arsenault netting the puck. The Abbie: rallied and at the 11 minute mark MacGregor found the net to end the scoring.

m Basketball Promotors Take Loss In Vancouver

Iy ID ROMAINI

VANCOUVER. Feb. 25 - (W) — Professional basketball folded in Toronto and it shows signs of a similar exit in Vancouver unless there is some fast schedule-chang- ing by the moguls of the Pacific Coast Professional Basketball League.

League play is called the most “spectacular basketball west of Chicago," but it has little crowd appeal this season and Clem Mc- Donald, who supports the Vancou- ver Hornets, seems headed fcr an- other loss. In a baptism of fire last year — the first as an owner —- McDonald finished in the ted by $l5,000.

Fans hers are served topgrade play, says Don (Vancouver Sun) Carlson, but the game is not draw- ing peanuts. l-le nails tho reason: Lack of an appropriate schedule.

“The fault is not with the game. but with the league directors. The facts show that during January, Portland did not play once in Van- couver, Astoria was here once, as was Tacoma. Seattle aplaeared tlwlce and Bellingham four times."

Last week total paid admissions for three league gushes did not touch the 2.000 mark.

"To break even \ve should aver- age around 1,500 paid admissions each game." says Art Chapman, Hornet business manager. k

Possibly the excellent brand of amateur basketball provided here is also responsible for the pro's poor- following. Vancouver Glover Leafs, last year's Dominion cham- pions, and New Westminster Luck- ies dish lip a snappy hoop display with seldom a poor house. .

Probe 0f Reported Batting 0n N.ll.l.. Games To Continue

DUIROPI‘. Feb. 25 — (OP) — Clarence Campbell, president of ths National Hockey League, said tonight that an investigation into reported player-betting of two Eastern League members will con- tinue "to the limit."

Campbell, who arrived here to- day "from league headquarters in Montreal, said that if certain evi- dence "exists in fact, then that's strong circumstantial evidence that the hockey players were involved in Bettina and it must be investi- gated to the limit.”

Working with Detroit police and stats authorities, he said he hoped soon to contact a paroled bank rob- lm" alleged to be the middle man for the two unnamed players.
