Br Gwrse Mngulrc,

Canadian Press Staff Writer (B! Guardian's Special Wire) r NEW YORK. April L-Favorites of the Manhattan sporting world at present, New York Americans, a battered but indomitable National Hockey League team trnlgm rode to Toronto where they xlide with Maple Leafs tomorrow night in the final game of the Stanley Cup semi- final, conducted on a best-of-three basis.

Leafs came from behind to win the first game at home 3-1 and started last night's game over- whelming favorites to win. It was the truly amazing Amerks, however, who emerged winners 1-0.

"Keeping punching-and hard," has been the motto of the club all season, and the men of Manager Mervin "The Red" Dutton —- Roy “The Shrimp" Worters, defenceman

A1 Murray and Joe Jerwa, Dave

“Sweeney” Schriner, Art Chapman, Hal “Ole Baldy” Cotton and Nels "Poison" Stewart in particular — fought the Leafs in a. manner to make even that motto seem tame.

"And we are going right into their own backyard and fight tooth and nail to the very and," said Schrin- er. "Some of the boys may feel a bit too confident right now. It does seem like it with all this talk about arrangements for meeting Detroit in the final, but you can bet your bot- tom dollar we'll all be out there fighting as determinedly as ever. The Leafs can be beaten. We have proved it all season."

Manager Duttcn said he had no definite idea what sort of a. game he would send his team out to play against Toronto dreadnought. "But," he added, “we'll keep punching."

Coach Rosy Helmer, who leaves after the Thursday night game for Winnipeg to scout the Allan Cup final there, left no doubt he thought his club had at least a 50-50 chance and that "regardless of what type of game eitlzo: team plays."

Outside of Eddie Wiseman, dash- ing little wingman, the Americans seemed in fairly good condition. Wlseman suﬂered a torn ligament in his right knee in last night's game and will not be used against the Leafs but may be ready for the Detroit sereies if the New Yorkers progress that far.

LEAFS BATTERED

‘IDRDNIO, April 1. _ Battered and bruised, Toronto Maple Leafs came home today to an anxious city that saw visions of elimination from the Stanley Cup chase by the Na- tional Hockey League's biggest sur- prise team-New York Americans.

Leafs and Americans will tangle here tomorrow night in the third Some of the Stanley Cup semi-final and that was surprising to Toronto's ‘ populace. They hadn't fig- ured on the Amerks stopping the Toronto powerhouse or even forcing the series to the limit.

But the Americans did, by 1-0 in New York last night after taking a 3-1 pasting in the first game, and were so impressive Leafs weren't, much better than even money in the betting circles today.

The bruising work of the New York defence, mainly by Al Murray and Joe Jerwa, left its mark on 1m Leaf lineup. Rube Bannister, the club's rnasseur, took most of the team under his care.

Art Jackson had a sore ankle an’; the brilliant young centre was limp- ing badly. Bob Davidson was suf- fering with a. torn leg ligament. Others reported with minor hurts. Bannister promised to have both ready for the crucial game.

The teams will play to a packed house, the third successive game for which the Toronto arena has been sold out.

When the game is over, and itwlll be played to a finish with unlimi- ted overtime. the winners will qual- ify for the cup final against Detroit

Reorgarlizes Albany Club For Campaigni

(By Charles Young, Albany Knickerbocker Press) (Written especially for The As- socmfed Press)

WINTER. GARDEN. F18... April 1—While Inteaiational Baseball League experts are nearly unani- mous in their opinion that Al Mamaux and his Apany club will be the cellar champions again this year, lidiamaux is going right al- ong in his task to pull the team out of last place.

Mamaux admits his team needs strengthening to cope day in and day out with-the other seven clubs but he insists the addition of some seasoned campaigners, particular- ly an experienced catcher, a hard- hittlng infielder and a pair o1 cap- able flingers, w.ll make it possible for him to give most of the teams a battle.

Since the close of the 1935 sea- son the Senators have, through a series of deals, disposed of vir- tually all the players who with the rail-end club last season. The only holdovers are Bob Burke, vet- eran left-handed pitcher; Ed Chapman, another pitcher who was out most of last season be- cause of illness and Eddie Boland and Ed (Alabama) Pitts, out- fielders."

Burke is expected to be one of Mamauxt". ranking pitchers but Chapman's arm has not rounded into form and he has been sent home. Neither Boland nor Pitts is expected to be in the starting lineup. It has been indicated Pitts will be "farmed" to the Harrisburg Club of the New York-Penn- sylvania. League.

Mamaux is claiming no first div- ision berth; in fact he is making no claims of any sort about the 1936 Senator array.

"We'll be trying to win every game," he said. “We may fool some of the boys who think we will be set-ups. however. Give me a good catcher, infielder and a pair of pitchers and we may go places."

lCityBadminton Champions

City badminton champion; for ' 1936 were declared in Ladies’ Doublew Men's Doubles and Mix- ed Doubles last night as the tournament played on the Mil- itary Courts at the Armouries drew to a close.

Reaching new heights in local badminton play every match last night saw the com titers play dazzling games that ad a large ‘ crowd of spectators applauding loudly the long rallies, smut placements and all-round efficient court work that was in evidence. Only one upset occurred during the tournament, that coming in the mixed doubles, but in the other two classes the champions that were declared had to display every bit of skill at their com- mand to defeat their opponents. This is not only true of the finals. Ever since the Opening rounds on Tuesday evening down through the quarter finals and semi-finals the same nerve-wracking games took place with the out-comes always in doubt.

The tournament Just closed, the first of its kind attempted in the city, was a huge success from start to finish and judging bl’ the e11‘ thusiasm displayed throuih the two night's rfay 1t W1" mm than likely be an annual event in fut- urc seasons.

Miss Eleanor Bourke and Mrs. W. A. Smith are the ladies doubles champions. Last night in the only match played in this class their defeated Mrs. Roy Cudmore 511d Mfrs.

R. Hyndman and Stewart Jones captured the men's doubles title after a thrilling strugﬂlﬁ in "if" matches. They eliminated the G058 brothers in a second round match; in the semi-finals they nut out the strong pair of W. A. smith and J. E.

other surprlsing team 0f Eﬂl-‘l Goss and Mrs. Roy Cudmore. The scores were 17-16, 8-15 and 15-11.

In this event occurred the only upset of the tournament. The win- ners met the Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Smith team in a semi-final match and on the form shown in previous games the latter pair were big favorites. However they struck a snag. Goss and Cudmore, showing brilliant teamwork and placing their drives to a nicety marched off with two straight games to their credit by scores of 15-12, 15- 5, a victory that placed them in the finals.

The other team of Earl Goes and Mrs. Roy Cudmore after win- rilng a second round match had also provided a surprise in their semi-final as they sent down Miss Eleanor Bourke and J. E. Sterns ln a gruelling three set battle, the final game being won only after extra points were necessary. The score was 17-18.

This left the two teams of Cud- more and Goss to battle it out and battle it proved to be. For three gruelling sets, featured by marvel‘ lous returns and brilliant place- mcnts the competitors battled on even terms with neither showing any distinct advantage over thﬁ other. W. Goss and Mrs. Harry

TORONTO, April 1 — Sudbury Falcons, flashing dazzling speed, pierced the heavier armor of Brock- ville Magedcmas for a. 5-0 shutout here tonight in the second game of their bqst-of-three series for the Eastern Canada senior hock cham- plonshlp. The victory evened the series at one win each and forced .2. third game here Saturday after- noon.

Brockville won the opening game in Ottawa last Monday 5-4. but were outclassed by the Ontario re- preserxiives tonight. Brockville had few close in chances in cam- pariscn with Falcons and when they did crash the barrier, Joe Ircnstcn-e, former professional play- er with Ottawa, senators, was more than equal to the test.

The red shirted nort-herners tal- lied twice in each of the first two periods and were held to one in the last when Magedomas made a gal- lant effort to beat ironstone.

Besides the northern netminder another ex-Ottawa. player had a big part in the win with Charlie Marshall tallying two of his team's goals. Tony Graboski, brother of the one-eyed Jo-Jo of the Brockville team, scored one. Hal Cooper and Art Stuart completed the scoring.
