By last Uaolhlllll

'noaoN'ro. Avril 10 —(cr) — Harry Lumlsy got his third shut- out of this year’: Stanley Cup playoffs Saturday night aa Detroit Red Wings overpowered New York Rangers 4-0 before 13,131 fans and took a 3-1 lead in their beat-oh aeven cup final.

The agile Lumley. at 23 a vain- an of six season in the National Hockey League, blocked 24 New York shots to get his first shutout of the final series. He scored two in the semi-final round against Toronto Maple Leafs.

With Lumlo.-y’s faultless goal- tending and some hard hitting by the Detroit defence cooling out the eager Rangers‘ attacking thrusts. the wings staged an effective at- tacking show of their own.

They struck for two goals in the first period while the Rangers were short-handed through penalties and they added insurance seals in the second and third with the teams at full strength. They achieved the victory despite their seven penalties to six for the Rangers.

limb Will! ‘I0 “fiery

Right winger Gerry Couture started the wings on the victory trail by scoring while Allan Stan- ley of the Rangers served I board- ing penalty. Blocked on the left side of the goal, Couture swung around behind the nets, came out on the other side and poked the

‘puck past goalie Chuck Rayner.

Gus Kyle was off for interfer- ence when centre George Gee made it 2-0 with 52 seconds left in the first period. Al Dewsbury, :alled up by the Wings from their Indianapolis American Hockey Lei!- zue farm club. shot a bouncer from the blue line and Gee tipped it into the net.

A blazing shot. by centre Sid Abel provided the third Detroit goal with 44 seconds left in the second period. He fired from out- side the New York defence and Raynor didn't. have time to let in ‘rent of the 40-foot drive.

Marty Pavelich Bot the third period score. Red Kelly set up the score on a breakaway rush which caught the R.an891'5 Wii-h ON? 0170 man back. Kelly drew the defence- man out of position, and shot I short pass to Pavelich who picked the open corner.

Although Lumley got the shut»- out, Rayner was the busier £03“!- The National Hockey Leallle champions drove 35 shots at the New York goal.

Bruce Woodcock Is Taking No Chances_T_his Time

LONDON, April l6—(CP)—Bf'uco Woodcock. British heavyweight boxing kingpin, has sold his car- and won't buy another until he's met Lea Savold here June 6.

Bruce, the highway hard-luck kid, is taking no chances this time.

The Doncaster, Yorkshire, lad has had four road accidents in the last three years-—o.nd each affected his ring chances.

In October, 1948, be injured his head when braking suddenly to avoid a child darting into a Don- caster street. In March, 1940, he was severely shaken up in a crash at Johannesburg where he was in- training for’ his bout with Johnny Ralph. Last spring he was involved in a collision .in -Ireland while training for his fight with Freddie Mills. -

Bruce says each slowed him down in a forthcoming light. But the worst was to come.

He ended up in hospital with con- cussion after a truck he was driving skidded off the highway and piled into a tree. The injury postponed the Savold bout, cost promoter Jack Solomons a hatfui of sheke‘a and had Bruce talking despondent- ly for a time of "quitting the ring.”

But the former railway worker is back in light training, his weight down to I84, and manager Tom Hurst modestly predicts that "no numan being" can stay in the same rinl. M‘-iling by the-force with which Bruce is pummening In punch-bag.

Woodcock spends four days a week in the gym and on the road and fills in spare time training with Doncutcr Rovers soccer team. when the football workouts end, he pulls the heavy roller around the

field. And this time, his road work is all on foot. .5

APRIL 17, 1950

we had a pleasant surprise on Saturday when Gene Chouinard of

Perth. «Ontario, dropped in for a chat. Fans will remember him as the genial coach of the Perth Bl-ue Wings who defeated the Charlottetown Royals in a best of three series for the Ottawa Dis- trict-Maritime Junior Hockey title, leading up to the Eastern Canada Memorial Cup finals, .ln March, 1939. O C 0 Gone is very proud wrist watch presented to him by the junior hockey fans of Perth that year. He still recalls, with pleasure, the very fine reception he and his team received from sportsmen here, and the trem- endous interest the games amused. The Blue Wings took the first game 6-2, but lost the next 7-4 to deadlock the series. but came on to win the final game ‘I-6. That was the big game that every local fan will remember. It was nearly an hour late in starting because of the tremendous crowd. trying to force its way. into ‘the Forum. I

of a gold

But that wasn't the main feat- ure that stands out for those who remember the clash. It was the terrific battle between the two clubs, that went into twenty-rnin- utes of overtime. bedore Perth finally won out by a. 7-6 margin. and didn't wind up until the wee. small hours of i;he.mz.)rnin¢.

Coach choulnard also recalls when the team returned to the Queen Hotel where they were

staying. the late Harry Brown pre- sented the team with a case of lobsters. Gene is now a salesman for a Perth firm, but still main- tains his interest in hockey by coaching the Queens University squad.

0 I C Charlottetown on a business trip, Mr. Chouinard has been renewing old acqualntences, and one of his first calls was to see his rival coach of that series. Walter Lavrlor. waiter piloted the Royals to the Maritime junior championship‘ that ‘year. and but for Gene and his Blue wing puck- sters. would have continued further in quest of Memorial Cup hon- 011.

Here at‘

Although we were not present at the meeting between the two coaches of that memorable series, they no doubt. had many incidents and highlights of that occasion to talk about. Whether or not Gene nu seen any of the boys since he

visited this office Saturday, it was his hope that he would have a chance to talk with some of the

players during his visit who were on the Royals roster ‘at that time. 0 0

Two city interscholasilc basket- ball teams, Weat Kent School girls and Prince Street School boys, kept their airing of smart per- formances intact for this season at Summersid-. on Saturday night when they clipped both ends of a double hoop bill there over Sum- merside High School teams and captured the Island lnterscholasiic basketball titles in both divisions.

U C I

They were the final game: in two game, total point series. with the girls taking their round by a liberal 61-19 score, while the boys also took their round handily by a 97-73 total. This column extends its congratulations to the new Island scholastic champs, and also a word of praise to the two losing Summerside teams. Although tak- ing sound beatings in their open- ing ganics here on Friday night, they never gave up with the odds against them. to come through with stirllng performances on Saturday night. Losing out on Friday by a 60-38 walloping. the Western boys were only nosed out by a narrow 31-35 count, while the girls came back from a 34-7 drubbing to maka it a real battle in the final game, to play nip and luck with West Kent. who had to put on an all out final half drive for a 27-12 victory.

The matches pretty well wind up championship hoop play for thia season, with only the inland juvenile title to be decided, which will be a home and home, total point series between Charlotte- town Vlcioriaa and Suuamaraid.
