Mdple Leafs Improve Top Position With 3-2 Decision Over Canucks

MONTREAL. Jan. 23——rOP)— Toronto Maple lbcafs, gaining strength. as the game went. on. came from behind to . defeat the sixth-place Montreal Canrrdrcns, 3-2 here tonight and improve their position at the top of the National Hockey Lefldlle standing.

A cnwd of 11,320 paid customers watched the vcteran Sweeney Schriner lift a rebound into the net late in the final period for a goal that climaxed the Leafs‘ uphill battle. Toronto had fallen behind. 2-1, in the initial session but tied the count with the only marker- of the second period.

For Canadiens. it was their fifth suoreislve setback against the cnlv team they have failed to beat at least once this season. It was also the fifth time that Coach Dck Irvin missed out an effort to guide his new canadiens to a vic- tory over the team that he s-pent nine yea-rs building before switch- ing to Montreal, for- this seas :1.

Coach Irvin sent the Carladiens on a wide-open offensive from the start of the match for that victory and the strategy paid off when the youthful Habitants played rings around the ‘Pronto veterans, in the opening frame. It faded in the last two frames. however, be- fore the work of the starry duo of centre Syl Apps and winger Gordie Drillon.

It was Apps and Drillon who played the major part of the Leafs attack in the first tw; frames. with Apps scoring in the initial period after Charlie Sands had srnt Mont- real into a 1-0 lead and Drillon tieing the coilnt in the second per- iod alfier Ray Getliffe had again put Montreal in‘ front.

Coach Happy Day of the Leafs used the dangerous duo as “sh ck troops" in the final frame. throw- ing them on 1n quick minute shifts whenever a Montreal offensive be- came too hot. The strategy paid off when, after a Carllrdien offensive had been thus blanketed. Billy TayLr came on to lead a Toronto rush, with Schriner banging m tne winning tally on a rebound at 15.20.

Challenging Mon tague Rinks Beaten On LastEnd; Victors Margin Is 3 Points

In what was probably the closest and most spectacular finish in the history of the competition Charlottetown curlers Inst night retained tho MacArthur Trophy from the challenge of Montague when they defeat- ed the Eastern "bosom and stane" wlelders 35-32.

But it was only on the last end of the 42-entl match that the issun was decided the rink skipped by Dr. Heath McIntyre beating a rink skipped by brother George McIntyre to give the winners their margin of victory. With three rinks of curlers from each centre competing at: l0 ends each the visitors with the first two matches over held s 6-point lead. As Dr. Heath's rink went-into the last end of their mntclr they held a 6 point lead which squared the points at 26 apiece and loft tho issue up to the outcome of the final end. For the first half of the end. the issue lwas always in doubt but Charlottetown finished strongly to

chalk up a big three and the victory.

It was a close finish after the Charlottetown rinks had got away to a flying start and at: the end of 12 ends for each rink had piled up a 30 to 25 lead but in the final ends of the match it was all Montague as they overcame their deficit to knot the count at 32-all and then only saw their great comeback fail at the litrish of the competition.

And thus ended for this year Montagues chances of regaining the trophy they held for ten con- secutlve years prior to last year when Charlottetown succeeded in

dines rink and R. W. Beck of

chalked up by the visitor's in 13th contributed largely to his rinks defeat. However in the matter of ends won the two rinks split even-
