With the Saint Dunstan! Uni- versity squad taking a three-goal lead over the P. W.C. pucksters in the first game of their semi-final two-game total-goal series in City Hockey League playoff competit-

ion at the Forum on Tuesday night, puts the Saints in a pretty fair position as the team which will meet the winner of the Navy- Summcrsida semi-final series for the City League championship in the final round.

Although the Welshman put up g good battle on Tucsdfly 1118m- and proved to be good contenders for the series they 150K911 ‘he scoring punch that the Saints ex- hibited in around the net. The two teanware well matched but it is doubtful that the P.W.

Just whta the first game will get underway between Navy and summer-aide in their semi-final series has not been released yet and although it was first anticip- ated that it would get underway tonight, Summerside has informed league officials that they will not be able to make the trip due to s. previous hockey engagem t. And now with this second snow-storm in four days upon us, it would no doubt prevent the Western team from getting here even if they had planned on coming.

It was learned yesterday that the Prince of Wales College junior hockey squad, who are represent- ing the Province this year in Maritime junior competition», will moet the New Brunswick cham- pions hue Friday night in the first game of a. home and home, total-goal series for the N.

I I I I

The team which will play lhere on Friday night against P. W. C. will be either the Sackvliie Junior Legion squad or the Saint John Junior Marocnndepending on who won the round afsaint John last night for the N. B. title. In all

The second and final gains in the Island juvenile hockey series which was to be played at Ken- sington Rink last night between the Charlottetown Victories and the Simmer-side Juvtniles, was postponed until Friday night due to the present snow-storm which has blocked the roads. The post- poned game will be played at the Crystal Arms at slnnmerelde in- stead of Kenslngton.

Lolllle officials announced yes- terday that, due to the fact that the Borden Juveniles, who were scheduled to meet the winners in the final round, have withdrawn from competition, instead of Fri- day nlght's juvenile game being a rmi-final series it will now be

he ilnsl round for the Island luvenlle hockey. championship.

Due to their 6-1 victory over the Bummerslde Juveniles here Mon- day night in the first game of their total-goal. home and home series, the vice are in a very good position for winning the championship, and although the Western boys have the advantage of playing the final game on their heme ice, the Vlcs have a four- ccal advantage to carry with them into the game. which is a big ob- stacle for any team to overcome at the best pf ‘times.

MIAMI. Fla. March 2 -—(AP)— Promoter Joe -Louis. who learned

revealed today he had tied upthe NBA. version of the heavyweight championship for his international boxing club by exclusive two-year agreements with Baud Charles and Jersey Joe Walcott.

"Charles or Wslcott which ever wins in June, has agreed to fight only for us for two years." Louis on his return from an ex- hibition bout at Nassau. “That was part of the deal by whldl 01W will fight for the title. The winner has to fight either Lee Savoid or Gus Lcsnevich in 90 days."

When Louis won his crown from Jim Braddock in 193'! he signed a 10-year exclusive with Uncle Mike. That contract was a most import- ant factor in‘ the rise to power of Jacobs’ 20th Century Sporting Club. Louis appears to be in the plo- motional game to stay with the substantial financial backing of his new partners, James D. Norris and Arthltr Wirtz.

“I'll handle the big bouts." said the retired champ. "I will suggest the matches I think are the best. We'll still work with the local matchmakers in each city when we come in. We don't wan-t to hurt
