Well, the Island Intermediate A Hockey League has certainly ended up in a close race at the end of regular schedule play-as the maul: of the Victorias '1-4 win over Ali-

schedule at the Forum Wednesday night. .

. . . . Coming thmiuh to hand the Abbies their second and only do- feat this season. the Vics moved into a tie position with Saint Dun- stan‘s University for second place. just two points behind the final league winning Abbies. But they were not the only ones to make it ri closely-contested league. Battling hard all season, the summersidc Crystals and the Prince of Wales College welshmen, although trail- ing the second place teams by six points, have also ended in a. dead- lock for third place. or if you wish to consider the tie for second spot. fourth place in the final league standing. 0 C This means of course that four of the six teams in the league are going to have to play extra games in order to decide the final stand- ings. so one couldn't ask for any closer competition than that, and although we refer to the schedule as over. there are still a few stout battles ahead before the final standings can be decided.

This applies ‘pfll.’bi0i.lil.l'ly to the Crystals and Weishmen, who on- tered the first of a home and home. total goal series last night at the Western Capital to decide which team will make the fourth place berth in the playoffs. At time of writing. however, the re- sults of that game had not been decided. but we think it safe to say that it was a close battle, and that it will be another close one here next week when the two teams meet in the.fir.iai contest.

0

As to what will take place be- tween saints and Vici as regards their second place tie. has not been released yet. but according to the playoff rules laid down by the League executive. the first place team will meet with third place, and second will meet fourth. For that reason some policy will have to be laid down by the league to decide which team will be second and which will be third.

. . . .

We can only guess as to what the solution will be at the mom- ent, although from our point of view it can be only one of two things. Either the two teams will meet in a series similar to the one in progress now between Crystals and P. W.(:. or they will flip a coin to decide it. The latter is quite a possible prospect as it is not going to jeopardize either team's playoff chances, but will only determine which team the? will meet in semi-final series. and in this way w save time in I“- tlng the play underway.

or course the. two ‘squads may prefer to play it out instead, as they may have a preference I8 to

which team they wish to meet in F

the semi-finals, and we imagine if

that is the case, they will be al- I

lowed to do so, but in the mean- time, we will just have to hide our time until some decision is reach- ed. which may be forthcoming at any time in the next day or so.

Hungarian Partridge In Heed of Help

Htun covey's have been having rather lean pickings for nearly a week now and conditions hrwe grown worse instead of better. At least 95 per cent cf their foodand grit ls incased in a coating of snow and ice. Its rather pathetic to see the partridge wandering aimlessly over winter fields or huddled in hungry covey's on crusted snow with no food in sight.

The birds need he‘p andneed it badly. If this type of weather continues for another week or ten days there’s no telling Moat may happen. Pheasants appear to be having better success in their search for food. The big Cooks pack ii lot of weight and have strong hooked beaks and are able to break up the crust around weed clusters. They also feed a lot on rose hips and thorn hedges. It is hoped that school obildiren will look after covey's in their respective wbool districts. Fannera as usual are the Hun: main stantiry. '
