In 3 - 1 Win Beavers In.Se

HALIFAX. March 4 - (C -P) - Llttle Rocky Sullivan and winger Bert .steel led under-strength Hlllilax St. MIl'y's to a 3-1 V107-OTY over saint John Beavers in the opening game of the Maritkne Major Hockey League semi-finals Saturday night.

Sullivan. who missed most of the schedule through injuries. and Steel. who joined as a replace- ment after playing parbtlrne Dc- key with Truro in the A-P-C Lea- gue. teamed with big Cy Thomas to score l-Iallfax's goals.

Given first-class -protection by his defencemen, goalie Eddie D'Aoust had a shutout until the third period when Saint John's 'l'ed Watson deflected a waist- high shot into the cage.

Beavers could not cope with the powerful play of Saints in the first two periods-most of their thrusts loundered at centre ice. It

was not until late in the third. when the strain of coping with three Beaver lines began to tell.

that the visitors dominated the play.

I-lalifnx coach Sweeney Schriner was able to ice only two lines he- cause of injuries. one was the regular line of 1-lughie Campbell- l'-llll Watson-Muckle I-loilett. The other was Thomas-Sullivan-Steel. playing together the first time.

Saints played strong defensive hockey in the closing minutes. Buck Whitlock of Beavers, the leaguels top scorer, was well marked throughout. He had one good scoring chance. spoiled when 1)'Aoust came out of the net for a brilliant save.

Dennis Brodeur had a rough time in the Beaver cage and time after time was left alone to fare speeding forwards. in the first frame he blocked 10 shots against five for D'Aoust. In the second. saints hammered 11 drives, two of which went through for goals. Meanwhile, DiAoust turned aside

for

' five.

It was a different story in the

last period when D'Aoust 13 drives compared to handled by Brodeur. Beavers pot- ted the lone goal shortly after the start of the finale. Bolan fired a high shot from the wink. Whlull Watson deflected past D'A0u3l:.

Until then. referees Nell san- ford and Charlie Copus had in easy night. But Campbell and Manny McIntyre were caught hammering each other. and drew minor penalties. They were still in the penalty box when Thomas and Jack Heon clashed viciously at centre ice and "were tagged with majors.

. Launching their best five out of nine game series here on Friday night with islanders, Moncton came up with a much unexpecled upset to start the ball rolling with a close 3-2 verdict over the league I schedule winners. It was a game that saw a confident Islanders club, perhaps a little too confident, display a particularly aggressive type of hockey to hold the major- ity of the play throughout all three periods only to have the Moncton squad reply with I steady performance that saw them utilize every break of the game to garner their victory. . . . Throwing everything they -had -into the fray right from the open- ing whistle on. Islanders bottled -Moncton up behind their own -blueiine with powerful attacks. but a glittering 'all-night performance by Les Colvin in the Moncton cage was a stumbling block to pressing islanders forwards at every stage of the game. Turning aside rub- bcr from every angle and position. Colvin was a one-man team in himself and was nothing short of sensational. with hurried and over- anxious shooting on the part of Islanders aiding and abetting his cause. I .W-hile Colvin was busy stavlng off repeated dangerous attacks. the rest of the Moncton club were play- ing close defensive hockey at the same time, and taking advantage of every break that came their way. They threw off pressing attacks periodically, and proved a cool, collected smooth-passing ag- -gregation when they worked the '-play into Islanders territory to make their efforts pay off in div- idends.

They got some breaks too. that -from the press box looked like anything but the way the referees called them. but unfortunately they are the -boys who have the last. say. Marcel Clements made a lovely effort in the early part of -the third session when he broke up a Moncton rush to go right in on Colvin for a nice goal, but was called back on an offside. if a whistle was blown on the play. those in the press box didn't. hear it only a stone's throw away. ex- cent the whistle that was blown after the play was completed.

That was break number one. 0 I 0

Number two was on Joe Dei- -monl:e's goal fired from near cen- tre ice. and was Moncton's dead- .lockl.ng counte. It came when Deirnonie picked up an iced puck at centre ice. to fire I long. hipii shot that beat Gordon. while a Moncton player was still skating out of lslande . defensive zone a good 10 or i5 feet inside the locals bluelirne. In our books it was a decided offside play. but then again it isn't the press that calls them: that is what they have referees for. but sometimes i' makes one ask "what for?" So

much for game number one. 7 0 I 0

The picture was a complete change here Friday night in the second series clash, at least as ifar as the scoring was concerned. Displaying the same aggressive- insss as ilhe night previous. but -clicking better on their plays and making no mistakes, Islanders -came up with a decisive 4-0 ver- dict to deadlock the series. Colvirv was I stumbling block again with some steillt net tending. but is- Janders were much dim-per on their mooting. to get to him for two counters in the first period and repeated the performance in one sandwich session. although be- IIDI held scoreien in the closing one.

0 0 up

it was I smart eoniai. with iMonc.-ton playing a close-checking came all Ihevway while Islanders

carried most of the attack to them. Moncton trying to duplicate their lactic: of the,nlglrt previous by capitalizing on in open breaks. Gut. Islanders were prepared for the situhtiui and baekcheclted tirelessly when he need arose and made their own high-flying tactics pay off. . .

BOSTON. March 4 -(AP) - Veternn Woody Dumart took off on the wildest scoring spree of his 12-season National Hockey League career tonight with a four-goal ef- fort as Boston Bruins humbled the hapless Chicago Black Hawks 10-2 to the delight of a 7.887 Bos- ton Garden crowd.
