Haul... Atlantics Boost League - Lead With 5-3 Victory Over Islanders

HALIFAX. Nov. 18 -(CP) -I Halifax Atlantics hung on to first place in the Maritime Major Hoc- key League tonight with a. 5-3 victory over Charlottetown Island- ers.

An early third-period rally al- most wiped out Atlantlcs' lead un- til Bill Ford took a. pass from Joe Lepine to clinch ihe scoring.

The victory moved llnllfax five points ahead of Islanders while a Sydney victory at Glace Bay brought Millionaires to within two points of Charlottetown. 1

An injury to forward Buck Whitlock took some steam out of the Charlottetown scoring drive. Whltlock took a heavy body check from Carroll Bloom late in the first period and leg trouble kept him out of action for the next: session. He returned to the ice an the third period. t

A hard-driving Island forward line pressed hardest in the first two periods but their scoring punch was weak. Roy McMeekin handled in of his 25 stops before the third period.

Al Millar in the Charlottetown rage turned aside 18 tries. 1

Frank King and Marcel Clements each picked up n. pair of goals.

Hugh Campbell look a pan from Billy Watson at 3:18 of the opening frame to start the scoring. King and Watson added two more in the next 10 minutes. ,

The Hub Beaudry-Connie Bon-, homme-Clements line started click- ing after six minutes of play in the second. Beaudry scored the first Charlottetown goal after King had beaten Millar, while Clements

Keen Interest Shown In Toronto-Hamilton Game

TORONTO, Nov. 18 - (Cl?) - ”Remem:-ber Edmonton Eskimos" is the talk in football circles tonight, eve .of the Big Four title clash be- tween Toronto Argonauts and Ham- ilton Tiger-Cats.

The fans recall vividly the resurg- ent Eskimos who came up off the ground to smear Calgary Stamped- ers and then Winnipeg Blue Bomb- crs in the Western Canada Confer- ence playoffs. The situation is some- what similar in the Big Four show- down series.

Argonauts go into the game here tomorrow afternoon with a 16-point bulge, built up on their stunning 22-6 victory over the Bengals at. Hamilton last Saturday in the first tilt of the two-game total-point ser- ies. The ”E.skimo Story" can happen here in the 60 minutes

Can Still Beat Argos

Carl Voyles of the Tiger-Cats fig- ures his Bengals can still beat Argos by a. sufficient margin to move into the sudden-death eastern final with Sarnl Imperlals, Ontario Rugby Foot 1 Union champions, on satur- day '

You can't under-estimate either the Argos or Tiger-Cats. Argonauts probably the greatest money team in football, can come up with the big ones-something that has been demonstrated in recent years.

They have won the Big Four and Grey Cup four times in post-war years, a couple of times with clubs that the side-line quarterbacks wrote off early in the season. The Tiger-Cats, with powerhouses last year and again this season, have been. knocked kicking.

The Bengals, who have pulled a. couple out of the hat over Argon- auts with last-halt drives this sea- son, haven't had a shot at the Grey Cup final since 1935. And that is a sad memory for fans of the moun- tain city.

That was the year Winnipeg Blue Bombers staged what has been con- sidered the sports upset of the half century by whipping Tiger-Cats 18-12 in Hamilton. It was the west's first triumph in the cup classic:

The field has been covered by the now-famous 312,000 Canadian Rug- by Union tarpaulin since Sunday and Monday's all-day rainfall did no harm.

Interested spectators will be line coach Joe (The Toe) Aguirre and head coach Frankie Filchock of the Eskimos. They will return to Ed- monton Thursday to prepare the

Newman Club Hoop Team Wins from 0.85. 64-44

A spokesman for the Islanders Boosters Club nnnunced last night that the members were meeting With 800d response in their efforts to secure funds for the purchase of a defenseman from the Provid- ence Reds and a centreman from a Central Canadian Hockey Club. Both players are badly needed as was demonstrated last night in Halifax. The loss of Buck Whit- lock through an injury in the sec- ond period left the Islanders with only one centre. Although Buck was able to come back late in the third period it is doubtful if he felt like playing much hockey.

. . .

As a result Hub Beaudry was the only regular centre left on the team. Hub helped set up all the Islanders goals and apparently did a quite good night's work but there's a limit to how far he can go especially against a defense that hits with the authority of those Halifax bllteline defenders. The Islanders need a hard hitting defenseman to counteract those rival bumpers and it is hoped that the Boosters Club money and Pro- vldence,can supply the answer.

. . .

The Islanders arrived back in the City about two o'clock this morning from their Halifax trip. This afternoon they will take off by plane again for Sydney and a

game with the Mliilionaires to- night. The Islanders have been picking up it. lot of points at the

expense of the Sydney team lately and have been winning their share games in the Sydney rink. There are a number of vacant seals in the plane and fans wish- ing to accompany the team can do so by calling the Forum today.

A third wicket for selling seats at the Forum will be opened for Friday nights game against the Glace Bays Miners, it was announ- ced last night: by Bill Brown. The three wickets will be kept in oper- ation for the balance of the sea- son in order that fans may re- celve the fastest possible service just before game time when there is usually a big rush. Holding seals for people from rural areas and rural orders will be sold at one wicket with the general sale tick- ets being on sale at the other two.

. . .

Provided there is no snow on ihe ground this afternoon the Saint Dunstan's University fool- ball team will hold their second practise since they won the Mari- time Inlercolleglale championship in week and a half ago. The Saints will be working out in pre- paration for their game Saturday with the Halifax Wanderers in which the Mccurdy Cup will be at stake. President Don Grant of the Maritime Rugby Union has ruled that the game be played at Sackvllle and this will give Saints supporters an opportunity to see the game.

Dunstan's ' University have a very strong Intercolleg- iate hoop squad. They have been holding practises for the past few days and although we .have not seen them we have it on good authority that they will be I. threat for Maritime Intercollegiate hon- ors. All of last year's team mem- here except Fred Coyle are back in the fold. In addition they have the services of Gus Dorals and Taylor, both of whom played in the United States. Both are rated very highly.

In fact the two players are spok- en about in terms used to describe Jack Reardon. along with fellows like Pete Dun- phy, Clarence Mnononald. Cy Macfsaac, Earl Mscxinnon and Joe Mullally will form I team that will be to strong for an Island League. It has been proposed that an All-star team from the city League will be selected to meet them in exhibition games.

tee to play in Halifax and did not wish to play in Charlottetown.
