Important Game Tonight

. With only four games remaining in the island Intermediate “A” ‘double-double' round robin series. tonight's contest at the Forum between the Summerside Texaco Combines and J'onnlel Flying Hawks could be the match to decide the province 5 rep- resentative in Maritime playdowns.

The two clubs are tied for the series lead with 3-2 recent. and the RCAF Eagles are in last place \vi a 2-4 mark.

The Combines. slight favorites to win the series becadse nt’fthcir retained strength from the island senior league last scasrh. will host the Hawks in Summersidc tomorrow night and conclude their series with a game at the RCA!“ station Suiidav against the ‘ The Hawks and Eagles play the final game of the set. next Tuesday at the Charlottetown Forum.

If past performance means anything in the remainder of the schedule the Hawks shouldn‘t have too much trouble: but we doubt of this will be thc case. The Hawks downed the Combines 6-5 in overtime at the Forum in their first meeting this and took them in Summerside 4-3 In their only other encounter four days Iatcr. In both those games the Combines had held a three goal lead after two periods.

The habits of the (‘ombincs haie puzzled us over the sea- son and we don't know what to expect from them in tonight .i ti‘mi‘i'rou night's zanics. We think if they play to their fui' potential they could trounce the Hawks by at least seven

Important Victory

won a very important game the RCAF station rink Is It Sunday when they edged the Eagles 3-: in a very close eel- test. The first home and home exchange between Combine! and Johnny's Hawks ended in a double defeat for the Texaco team. and a lot of their fans figured they had received the coup do something or other— oh. yes, price. But the Eagles proceeded to claw the Hawks twice at home, and so Conl- bines‘ victory Sunday CIIIII- ed the picture entirely. Now they're back on even terms with the Charlottetown entry.

You neirr can tell about those .lunior Legionaires. They tough time defeating the North Riier team in Sumnierside last Friday night. It took a sudden rciersal of form in overtime to do the trick. The North River management added strength for the game in Charlottetown. ‘ had their home rink usually considered a but the “Whiz Kids" trounced North River 7-3. being ahead 7-0 at the end or the second period. Tobct that that would happen would be as foolhardy as to bet that Cassius Clay would win in seven.

Do you « icl's admit it —— a little bit realize that referees who hail rougher than their opponents, from Summerside are as. ex- tliough the penalties were pretty find as the dodo? Not one who evenly divided. The consensus found anywhere. Then why at the rink seemed to be that not should referees from other parts enough penalties were called. be continually accused of giving and that the Combines got away the Combines the better of it?
