‘flu Paul Williams’ coached Juvenile Aibbies exhibited a lit- tle too much power and speed for the Kensincton Juveniles at the Forum last night when they sent them down to s decisive 11-4 deu feat in the opening guns of their best of three series finals for the P.E.1. Juvenile Hocke-y Champion ship and the Ed Garnhum Chal- lenge Trophy.

Lead by the sharps-booting of Charley Kennedy and Lorne Hen- riesoey who racked up nine of the team's eleven goals. the Albbies went wide open in the second and third periods to outshoot their op- ponents nine goals to three after ‘both teams had battled to a very closely conested opening period which saw the Abbies only man- age to hold a 2-1 edge over an aggressive Kensington aggrega- tion.

Kennedy was the leading goal- getter with five to his credit while Hennessey ran him a close second with four. Dempsey Gre- gory and Don Clarke picked up one each to account for the other two tallies.

Ralph Champion was the big power on the Kensington roster, )ccounting for two of his teams Tour goals, while R. Maccai-ville ind W. Harding split one each 10: the remaining counters.

Second Game Saturday

The second game of the series will be played at Kensington on‘ Saturday night.

The game was a close checking, but fast breaking affair right from the opening whistle. that gave the large crowd of fans in attendance plenty of action and excitement, and although the play some up with hard body contact, it was cleanly played. with only four penalties being handed out, all of them going to Abbies. one a major and the others for rnilnor ntfences.

Navy-Army Game Adds Something New In Hockey

Any resemblance to a hockey game was purely accidental when officers from H.M.C.S. Queen Charlotte and the P. E. I, Regi- ment collided at St. Dunstan's rink Tuesday night.

It was one of the maddest games ever seen as service protocol de- manded that only ‘commanding of- ficers were permitted to score. The referees “1-lorn" Maclvlillan and "Bony" Higgins had forgotten both the rules and how to skate so they checked opposing forwards to make up for it.

On the two teams were grey- bearda, baldheada, doctors, city councillors, postmen and ordinary servicemen. Opposing each other as team leaders were Naval Cap- tain J. J. Connolly and Lt. Col. A. W. Rogers. Each of them scored twice in the bitterly fought tied game.

In between periods the pride of the Navy the “Baggy Maggie" was destroyed by a toy Seep with a Bren gun mounted forward. The cardboard flat top offered no re- slstance.

The garrge began with a blaring fanfare from the Reece Band and a board of strategy carried Col. Rogers (All Rogi) in a sedan chair to center ice where he faced off with Capt. Connolly, The Navy goalie had an outsize stick to stop the puck while goalie Rogers thoughtfully blocked his case with a sheet of beaverbaard. When that was endangered he acted with great presence of mind and turned the open side of the net into the boards. This effectively blocked all shots. Navy retaliated in the sec- ond session by sratlns “'9” goalie on "The Heads". The same was played in all its fun before a large gathering of fans and prom- ises to become an annual feature event.

MARCH 9. 1950

Coming through to chalk up a 5-7 victory over Prince of Wales

College nt the Forum Tuesday night, the Vince Grunt coached Summerside Crystals made sure of their fourth place spot in the is- land Intermediate A Hockey play- offs by taking the home and home. total goal extra series by I liberal 18-13 count. 0

With the exception of the first period, it was a rip-roaring grime all the way, but at the same time producing one of the cleanest games we have witnessed in the league this year. with only three penalties being handed out, two going to Sumn-ierside in the first period and one to P. Vt_ C. in the second, all for minor infractions.

' C I 0

it was a free scoring game too from the second period on, with both teams hammering away at the attack, the Crystals picking up four goals in the canto and Welsh- men two, with the teams rnnlly outdolng themselves in the final frame to make the red light flash eight times, splitting even for four goals each. The first frame was the only low scoring part of the game when both chalked up a tally each.

0 0 O 0

Although the high scoring might. indicate a weakness 0}: the part of the goalies, It was by no means the case, as both Sprague and Lund came up with some sen- sational saves during the game to turn back many scoring attempts which came fast and often all through the encounter, that kept both squads from sending their scores into the double figures. It was that sort of a game, wide- open with fast breaking attacks that go hand in hand with plenty of goals.

0 O U C

It was a heart-breaking game for P.W.C., who went into the fray three goals down, and although they went into the lead in the first and second periods, and dead- locked the score midway in the final session, Summcrside seemed to have that canny knack of either getting the equalizing soul hr the one that put them out in front axain.

O O 0

Having one of the smartest games as a team we have seen them turn in all season. the Cry- stals eamedtheir victor)’. but it was a close battle all the way. and although there were few penalties handed out as mentioned above, line lone one handed out to P. W. C. was one that we figure cost them the game. Deadlocked at 2-2 early in the second period, defenceman Ms.cLeod was waved off for bring- ing up his knee while cdiecking an incoming crystal forward. Taking full opportunity of the one-man advantage. S-ummerslde drove hcv.-ne their attack tiliat netted them two goals in thirty-three smondmo put them out in front for e first time in the game, and were never headed from then on al- though Welshman did tie the score at 6-6 midway in the last period.

0 O 0

However, it wouidJi’t have been enough in any case to overcome the three goal lead carried over from the last game by Crystals, and the Western team would still have their playoff spot. and after all is said and done. that is hockey every time. The Welshmen had the odd man advantage twice in the open- ing frame but couldn't capitalize on it. which indicates that Crystals were just the better team, taking in everything, bl'eai<.T01‘ break.
