Both squads were short-handed for last night's tilt, jive Wolverines being absent, with the Abbie “Kid Line” of Kane, Beaten and McArthur out oi the lineup due to sick- sp and injury.

The sod-class second verse was s continuous mind 0d hectic hockey. Bubni-‘s brilliant nm-minding n- gain prevented Beaver mills. Three of the four penalties were inlposed upon Hawks. The play continued at undlminished peed when Din-per and Webster not in the penalty box together.

Rderring to the rcferceing at Halifax Wednesday night in the game between the Moncton Hawks and the Wolverines, W. J. Fbley writing in the Halifax Chronicle says, “The refereelng was even worse than usual and police pro- tection was provided Roy Prowee As he leit the ice. Morris Beasley was the other ofliclsl."

Our comment is that Roy refer- eed st Nlonclon on Monday night and the Monctonlalis thought that ho was favoring Halifax. As a met- ter of fact the writer, who saw the game, was of the opinion that the penalties he gave both teams ap- peared to be deserved nnd that he was not showing any partlality to cllher one.

Lust night was the wlndup oi the Big Four Hockey league, with the exception of two postponed 89-1710! which remain unplayed, one be- tween the Halifax Wolverines nnd the Saint John Beavers to be play- ed Monday evening at Saint John and the following evening Saint John Beavers wlll DIBY MDMYVII Han-ks at Moncton. On Tuesday morning the Abbies leave for Hali- fax to play the first of a series best two out of three games with the Wolvorincs, rcturning on Thurs- day and playing at Charlottetown on likiday night. Should one oi these games result in a victory for each team, or should one be a draw, a third game will be neces- sary. It will be played in Halifax on Monday, March 5th. There is al- so s possibility of a. fdhrth Ban-le but very little probability.

Amateur hockey has gone over big in Montreal, this season, por- hups because Sunday games were allowed. Over 70.000 fans have paid to sec these gamu in the Montreal Forum, which is double the attend- ance shown last season. Although M00111 has doininatod the situation all the way through the hockey has been very interesting. The playoffs are expected to produce 225.000. which will make a total admissions for amateur hockey of upwards of $100.01».

T. G. Lowry who coached the Ot-

Czech or Germain-player is as good s skater or book checker as our Ca- nadian but they are not nearly so good around the nets. lhiglsnd has gone mad over hockey and Mr. lewrey predicts that i.u the not far distant future they will have self- suppcrting leagues of their own snd will not have to rely on imports- tions of Csnucks.

Albert Leduc, nicknamed "Steam- boat," has been sold by the Ottawa Senators bsok to tbs Canadians from whom they purchased him, and by them to the New York Ran- gers. As Ottawas are deﬁnitely out of the playoﬂs they are endeavor- ing to cconomire. It is understood that the Canadians of Montreal are interested in several Hamilton Tigers amateur players. leo Dun» dursnd, proprietor of the Canad- lena, states that he picks Hamilton Tigers to win the Allan Cup,
