(By The ennui-n Press)

HALIFAX, Dec. 2 —- Halifax Crescents moved into fourth place in the Maritime Big Five hockey league tonight by defeating their city rivals, United Services. (-2. In their five meetings to date, Crescents have won two and Ber- ‘vlces three.

The game, a ragged affair that kept the handful of fans yawning. was another in the two teams’ duel for an unwanted vacancy — 1h! league cellar. But the win advanced t, to within two points of Saint John Beavers - and they have played two games less.

Sole bright spot in the evening's hockey dim-out was Services lslle netrnlnder. Cyril Benn. In the third period. when Crescent: won the game. Benn denied opposing forwards with almost monotonous regularity and cut down three breakaways at the goal-mouth.

Services defence, usually more capable than they were tonight, slipped badly three times to allow three tallies by failing to clear abandoned packs.

Crcsccnts went two ahead in the first period. services drew even by the start of the third and then sllppedbsck by UWO goals again. The second time they couldn't catch

up.

Windy O'Neill batted Ln a loose puck near the beginning of the game and approaching the end of the first period Rock Sullivan drilled in on Benn alone after be- ing shaken loose by Jimmy Gray when Crescents were a man short.

Vic Jackson and Jack Spldell, Services two chic; scorers, account- ed for both their team's goals. Jackson got the first about. midway through the second period by strok- ing home Spldelrs rebound and Spldeil took his tur-n from close in on Jackson's pass.

Pud Stanhcpe figured in Ores- ccnts third and fourth goals. He set up Spoke Larable for the first and then cashed Jake Wade's pass- halfway through the last period. '

Jackson's goal and assist moved him into first place on the Marl- iime Big Five scoring board. two points ahead of..Sammy McMamis of Mom-ton Hawks and Lmi-Med- ynskl of Truro Bearcats. He now has l5 goals and 13 assists {or 28 points.

Local hockeyllta Iwing action at the Forum tonight when Prince of Wales, last year's City

League champions. take on St. Dunstans in an exhibition game that will provide a prelude for the coming City Hockey League warfare, scheduled to open aweek from tonight. O O + +

Tonight's battle should provide fans with a rugged. fast-skating encounter all the way. Both teams have been getting in practice ses- sions at every opportunity and will likely hit a fast clLp every minute they are on the ice.

+ Q 4- O

The game is scheduled to get underway at 8.30 sharp and man- ager Archer of the Forum stated last night that the non smoking rule during periods would be en- forced in o strict manner.

i '0 4' d-

Durlng the off-season one of the many improvements made to the Forum has been a new smok- ing room, installed on the east side. Between periods fans will be privileged to make use of this room and with this opportunity available Forum management can see no reason why fans attending the games should wish to smoke during-the actual time of play.

1- d- Il- O

The smoke nuisance has always been a. bone of contention among the players. No doubt about it. it affects their playing. and in- stallation of a smoking room by Forum officials should prove s decided asset to the big skating and hockey palace.

+ i l- i

Mentioned in this cc-lumn a few clays ago was the statement that Moncton Hawks would itppear here in an exhibition game against it local All-Star team beivnrcn December 8 and l0. Last itlght Manager Archer stated that the dates have been changed to De- cember 18-20. Querir-d as to the uncertainty of the Mnncton team

muklng the trip, Archer stated definitely that. the‘ Hawks would be‘ here. So ‘it appears that the

following. taken from n MOHCIOH paper, seems untimely to say the least. i- 4 i- 0

Here's how the Moncton writer views the proposed trip 0f the Hawks: ‘That reported Island trip by the Hawks scams to be a pipe dream. The Hawks manage- ment has denied any arrange- ments for a trip across the strait. which ls not so bad right now, but is a nightmare later in the winter.

Il- ‘O 1- O

“But as for the plan on the Island to seek entry in the Big five, that may be a different matter. Charlottetown never likes to see itself left out of thindl. and lt may be that there are those who will make such a move.

-l- It Il- tlr

"Somehow or other we have an idea that an application from the Island would meet with consider- able opposition. It's unfortunate for the Islanders. but the fact remains they are geographlillllll’ situated so that time and money demands on trips over there are too heavy.

Q O O a

"The Island trips when the B Four was in flower were always a bone of contention. Not one of the mainland clubs ever went tp Charlottetown without grumbling. It was not because of the treat- ment they received at the hands

of the Islanders, but because of

Stan Musiai, who recently was named the most valuable player in the National League by the Baseball writers’ Association of America. accomplished one of the most remarkable feats of recent years, when within the space of a month he made the transform- ation from the outstanding out- fielder o! his league to the top first baseman in the majors.

Head Minor

. By TED SMITB

LOG ANGELN. Dec. Z--(A.P)— Support for George TTautman o; Datum Ti8ers as successor to Judge W.G. Bramham as boss of the minor baseball leagues w. parently gained strength today. Trautinan, executive vice pregt. dent of the Tigers, has spent most of his career in the minors and thus would have the view- point o! the smaller baseball clubs. However, some small clubs oppose him on the grounds his selection might give the majors dominance over the minors. Judge Bramham, for nearly 5o years a figure in organized base- ball. has indicated he will retire as president of the National As- sociatlon for reasons of health. Today's meetings of the Ameri- can Assoclatlon. Pacific Coast League and Eastern League are preliminary to the general minor league sessions culminating in the major league meetings. Subject of hotel-lobby discus- s‘nn was the proposed major- minor league working agreement. one important clause- ln which would put a damper on payment of large bonuses by rich clubs to sign young players. As proposed by the revision committee, the majors would be llimited in effect in paying a $5.- 000 bonus. AAA clubs $3,500. and

I watched Cerdan go through training sessions in the murky atmosphere of the Catholic Youth Organkatlon gymnasium in the heart of downtown New York. l never saw a fighter train like__he does.

Although outside the day was humidly sticky. the five windows of the gym were closed tight, the air was stlfllng with the pun- gent stench of perspiration em- anating from many fighters train- ing throughout the day and from sweat mirts and other par- aphernalia hung from a clothes- line along the wall. But Cerdan worked and breathed as lf he were in a sylvsn suburb.

Manager and trainer Luciano Roupp acted as his sparring part- ner. Cerdan, wearing big gloves, attacked methodically. Roupp me- chsnicall throwing up his arms to gua ofl the blows, or step- ping back from hooks and jabs.

In fact, Rmipps guard was al- ways up before the champion threw a punch. It was like a catcher signalling his pitcher what to threw.

Oerdan wailoped the heavy bag viciously, peppered the light one, toyed with several amateur box- ers.

Why did Cerdan pick this gym? He doesn't like to train where there's a crowd, doesn't under- stand the language. would be too lonely in the country, although, paradoxically, he lives in the sub- urb, a" ushing, L. I.

How could Oerdan stand the smell of his training quarters? "what smell?’ he inquired in punch, then explained he I"! enough fresh air doing his road- work, and at an indoor fight the atmosphere isn't “N11! "i" °i roses.
