Sport Echoes_ from Prince. County

The curtain has lone down on a. stirring hockey drama of Prince Edwin-d Island. Last year the cur- tain rose when a Summersidc hockey team went down to Char- lottetown to play s trial game that would decide if Summersid- were strong enough to” play in the Charlottetown City League. They were trounced very decisively and the Capital City hockey mo- guls decided that we were some- what below the calibre recassary to give satisfactory competition in their league. This was the humil- iating decision that we had to swallow, and showed that we had fniiau s long way since the days of Charlie Calhiiil, Chick Gallant. Jackie Bonus-man and Roy Billi- phant. But it made us determined to build our fallen fortunes until we were able to compete on equal terms with our great rival again. This year some encouraging events took place. First and foremost. "Windy" steeleglast year's mentor of the Maritime senior champions. csma ‘back to live in his native town. Then Dr. Vince Grant. one- time star performer with St. RX. squad began to practice dentistry here. Bob Schurman, spare goalci of the Moncton Hawks, came back to the town considerably improved in the technique of guarding the cage. Gordie MacKay and Nell Macleod moved up from minor ranks. Carl Woodside and Re; Bradshaw loft Kensington and Bedeque teams respectively to join the 1848 Sumnierside aggregation. and Freddie Foy was picked from the R.C.A.F. squad to till a place on the "Steele coached" outfit.

All these newcomers here added to the remnants of last year's Le- glonaires. The front line of Ger- ard Bernard. Charlie Deigh-an and Emmett 'l‘rainor were all available agadn this year and continued to play girade A hockey. The "Kid" line lost. Gerry McNeill through an early season injury, but Syl Ber- nard and Miooney Gallant were going stronger than ever. Don Davis played better hockey on de- fence than last year and Leo Shields helped a lot in a utility role.

A three-team league was organ- ized under the presidency of Har- old McIver, who put. the ability he has shown in the insurance business to work at re-organizing the hockey set-up in Siummerslde. A tea-m was picked from the three entries in the league and called the Summerside Ali-Stars. At first their achievem -t< were modest enough. True. they edged Prince of Wales in the first game of the Charlottetown League but that was the end of their victories on Forum ice. The Navy beat them l1 to 6 and St. Dunstans smart sextet walloped them B to 2. 15 to 0 (we can see that night- mare yet) an-d then by a much closer score of 5 to 4. The team was beginning to Jell. Steele's coaching was starting to boar fruit.

Then the playdown trail loomed ahead. Everybody expected a close hard series with the Borden Na- toinals but "Windyb" Unpredict- able: won the first game 7 to 1. The second. a sloppy affair played in Bedeque Rink they won 1'1 to 10 and the calamity bowlers be- gan to tune their pipes again. In O'Lea.ry the All-Stars flashed to an 8 to 1 victory but. again in the second game right in Summer-side the boys eased up and O'Leary beat them -'i to 6. the only time they were beaten in the Island playoffs. They managed to eke out s three-goal lead in their home game with the Charlotte- town Abbies but few of their sup- porters believed it was enough. The story had circulated that Joe Mai-tar and Cart. McDonald were being added to the Capital City aggregation. and that was very b"! news indeed. For these boys had scored a lot of goals on our boys earlier in the season and the 50H- eral opinion was that our (three- goal advantage would disappear like a snowman in Timbuktu.

Then tho cruelest blow of sil fell. It was announced that be- cause of the storm Charlie Deigh- an, star eentreman ~of the All- Btsfl. would not get into Char- lottetown to play the second game It was like leading lamibs to the slaughter. said the wise boys. (We may as well admit it. that's the way we saw it too). But the Un- predictables fooled us all. Without Deighnn. but with the canny gen- enlship of Steele, with the infl- lisnt ‘stopping of Bchurman who was conked below the eye but rs- fusod to quit, with the non-stop flights of the galloping Gallant. with hha up-snd-at-‘em. never- ssy-dio spirit of every man isck on that courageous team. the Ail- Btus took tho Navy-Qt. Damian's- Prince of wales ensemble by the score of 8 to ii.

It lust couldn't be dons but they did it! Now come along to the crystal Rink tonight and see these Unpredictobles in their struggle with the New Brunswick chait- pionn, the Bsthurst Paper-makers.
