Although the game will only be an exhib- ition affair, i; will be e good test for the Abbie: who are 8M9!“ in Provincial Intermediate play this season.

It will be a big night at tho Crys- tal Rink, Summerelde tonight when the Abbies and Crystals each rep.- resenied by the players of an older generation meet under the auspices of the Summerside Fire Depart- ment ond Innkeepers A ' tion. This is a return game following the victory gained by Summerside in Charlottetown on Friday night. Two thousand people packed the Forum for that battle of the old timers and it is confidently felt that the Summerside Rink tonight will be equally well filled.

AN OPEN LETTER T0 SPORT FANS

Sir, - Tonight at 7:00 pm. at Prince of Wales College auditorium I shall endeavour to retain the re- spect and prestige of the Abegwelt Amateur Athletic Association in a game of basketball with the R. C. A. F. Flyers from Summerside. unis game is a regular scheduled Canadian Amateur Basketball As- sociation match and is the first game of a home and home. total points to count. series for the Isl- and Intermedlate Basketball title. The winner will advance to repre- sent P. E. I. in Maritime and possibly eastern Canadian com- petition. I have a little worry on my mind and I ask all sports minded and community spirited people of Charlottetown to lend an ear to my troubles. You are responsible for me even though you might not have been told before because the Abegweit Association is a com- munity club representing Char- lcttetown. I am not worried about my com- ponent parfs as I am a fairly well balanced and constructed body and have few weak points. Irv. Moe and Bob make up my back- bone while Capt. Glen, Joe. Windy and Don are my arms and legs. (One arm has been badly but temporarily sprained due to Nick's injury). Hugh takes care of my brain trust department while Jack will work on my offenses and defences. Physically. I am well equipped, but. here is why I am writing this plain and simple ap- peal. I lack the moral support of the sport fans of Charlottetown! There it is and it's a cold and uncom- forting fact. I will say no more except that I will find the going rougher without some backing by community routers. _ Tonight I am facing smart op- position as Bob. Moose. Peter. Smitty and Charlie. to name s few, are among tho best hoop artists on the Island. ' Tonight's game will be handled by S/I. Gillespie. a professional referee in his own right. who is as adept and careful with the whistle as a surgeon with his

played under the auspices of Sum- mersidc and Charlottetown. Prob- ably it will be developed into nn annual affair. In any event many of the older fans are looking for- ward expectantly to cheering for players that they backed fifteen and twenty years ago. The game in Charlottetown was a bruising affair end the spectators got their money's worth. The game tonight is expected to be equally good-S.

A good many Charlottetown supporters and friends of these grand old hockey players are ex- pected to acc _ the teanrto Smnmerslde this evening. A num- ber of buss have been arranged for and these wfll start from the locel bus terminal at intervals from 6.15 to 8.45 pan.

Bantam Teams Asked To Register

Officials of the Deperhnent of Physical Fitness announced last night they would like all bentam hockey teams in the City to register at the ‘Travel Bureau not inter than ‘Thursday noon of this week. It is expected that teams will be entered by the Abegweit Club. vari- ous Clty Schools, Parkdale. Spring Bark and the various City Squares. If all entries materialize. it will certainly be a very interesting and hard-fought league this year.

Upon completion of City play- downs. the winning teams will be matched up with teams in Sum- mcrslde and other centres to decide the Island title.

The Saint Damian's University hockey squad skated to adecisive 10-5 victory over tho avy to move into a first place tie with them in the league standing in a regular City Hockey League fixture at the Forum last night. It-was the final game for Saints before entering in- to playoff compcti ‘ . _ The gonna was a fast, hsrdhit- ting affair all the way through with both‘ teams playing some really smart hockey. Although the Navy held a 4-2 lead early in the second period, the Saints came roaring back in tho remainder of the period to outahoot them 4-1, and keeping up~tho pressure in the final frame mutscorcd them 4-0, to win by a liberal five-goal lead. Coach Jackie Kane, Imaking his first hockey ,, here for a number of years. turned out with his red and white aggregation, and showing plenty of his former style of play when he was a member of the "Big Four" Abegwelt squad in past years. assisted onrthree of his team's goals and set up several other nice passing attacks that lust misled being goals.
