Held up during the Christmas holiday season the City Basketball League swings back into action at the Prince of Wales Auditorium to- night with the third place Army team tangling with Prince of Wales in what should be o, closely-fought hoop battle.

HMJHAX. Jan. 1 -— (OP) —- Hlalifax St. .Ma.ry's and Montreal Jimioir Camadiens battled to a. 2-2 tie here tonight in the second. game of a two-game junior exhibition series. No overtime was played. St. Mary's won last night's game 7-2.

Highlight of tonight's match came. niot during the play, but. just aft-er the buzzer bad sounded end- ing the second period.

As the players were leaving the

ice, 5 fight started and other warn members streamed from both benches. A general melee started in front of the penalty box before it could be broken up by half a. dozen policemen. Howie Morenz, Jr., of the Ilabltants tangled with one of three young- sters who had conu- on to scrape the ice, before order was restored.

Canadian, jumped into an early lead when they breezcd in at 3:11 and Fred Newton took a pass from Gillis Truclel to boat goalie Gummy Gllfoy. It was the only tally of the

Prince of Wales and it would not perlod

be surprising should the squad coached by Walter Goss pull out with a win tonight and thereby create a two-way tie for third place in the standings. 1' ilv O O

Army, however. though weak in the sniping department. have a1- ways fumed in good games no mat- tcr who their opponent-s were and tonight will have theadciod incen- tive of being able to creep to within two points of the second- place Saints providing they can take the measure of the P. W. C team.

Minor league hockey, composed of Juveniles and midgets swing into action at the Forum again Friday night and judging by the com- ments of the fans who attended last Friday's double bill attendance is going to increase considerably.

That the youngsters perform- ances on that occasion was more than satisfactory can be gleaned from the questions that are being -ssked as to when they will per-

‘form again and it is a decided turn

for the better, Ili O il- i»

For too many years now little or no interest has been taken iii the minor leagues. Result has been a falling off of interest among the players themselves with a result- ing loss of promising hockcv ma- terial but now with a decided change on the part of the fans n will not be surprising If the league improves at 5 like rate.

Phone C11? Gets Results in Ice Squahhle

HALIFAX. Jan. 7 — (C?) _- A hurry-up phone call, midway through a junior exhibition hoc- key game. to president Hanson Dow- ell of the C.A.H.A. at Middleton. N.S., l-ast night prompted an irate Montreal junior Canadians team tn return to the ice and finish out the contest.

Halifax St.‘ Mary's defeated the visitors 7-2 in the first of a t\vo- game exhibition series. Second game will he played tonight.

The dispute came iorly in the second period when Montreal de- fcnceman Joe Leplne was handed a penalty for boarding. He refus- ed to leave the ice and in an en- suing discussion roughed referee Reg Beazley. Successive remon- strations, by Leplne who remain- ed on the ice, brought a miscon- duct penalty and finally a match misconduct.

The Canadlens, in protest, ro- moved their team ‘rom the ice and retired to the dressing room.

At the same time Judge J. E. Hudson. president of the Maritime Amateur Hockey Asiociation, put in the call to Dowsll. who ruled that unless the visitors returned to the game, they faced forfeiture of their guarantee and suspension from further iunlor competition.
