School Ice

Exceeding in enthusiasm and attendance the many fine pro- grams of the past. Queen Square School ice sports, held at tho Forum last night proved an un- qualified success w.th every rscc on the ‘lengthy program providing some stirring racing bottles and the novelty events plus the antics of two clowns adding extra en- joyment for a crowd q! over 2,000 who were in attendance to watch the pupils perform in their an- nual event. _

Chalking up 23 points made up of three first places and s second plus an additional five points for hockey. Arnold McCallum won the all round challenge trophy don- ated by Dr, FC. Dcugan as the outstanding performer and in ad- dition. a prize also donated by the trophy donor.

And to climax matters, Queen Square School hockey teem and Georgetown High battled to a 3- all drdw in the hockey attraction. Georgetown coming from behind a three goal deficit to force the stalemate.

Lightning fast ice saw good tmes being chalked up in the different events with many o! the young- sters displaying outstanding hoc- key ability. Once again the teach- ing stuff are to be commended on the fine manner in whfch the pro- gram was run off, not a hitch marring the Proceedings from the opening event on. ”

Hockey, Game A Thriller

The hockey game between Q.S.S. and Georgetown was I thriller all the way. starting off at a fast clip, the City school en- joyed an edge in play all through the first period as they built up a iwo goal lead on goals by Stuli and Gump Gill's in the closing min- ute and g, ha]; after the Georgetown goalie had kept his teem in the running with a superb display of netminding.

Showing better as the game progressed, Georgetown played _on even terms with Queen square throughout the muddle canto but Queen square drove through for another goal late in the session as Arnold McCallum clicked on a smart passing play with Lorne Hennessey to make it 3-0. but be- fore the period had ended, Delfh Stevenson. ace-of the visitors and one of the smartest school players to show here this season. put his team back into the running with two goals in less than two minutes. He potted the first on a smart ‘play with McNeil and then gave a great exhibition of stickhandling as he worked through the QSS. team for the second 3i seconds before the bell.

Georgetown pressed continually for the first ten minutes of the final ‘ but couldn't beat Burke guarding; the pipes for Queen Square. the young goalie sharing starring honors with his rival janitor, but they choked at 11.2’? of the period. A. Landry driving in alone to beat Burke from close range,

It was the signal for an all-out Queen square attack but again the visiting neimlnder stood in their way as he blocked at least three drives in the final two min- utes to give his team their deserv- ed draw.
