The some 9.000 fans who took 1" the fourth-round matches were treated to a good mixture of curi- ing - spectacular shots. costly misses. high scoring and even a (nod huddle by Dr. Clark of Ontario before he let his last rock fly in an attempt to get at Maniiobals shot rock.

Reg Stone of Trail. E.C.. finally displayed some of the smart shoot- ing expected of him in bearlier rounds. He cashed in on two five- enders and a four in B.C.'s high- acoring victory over Frank Hansen of Prince Edward Island. Hansen put. up his best show on the last end when he scored a four. but the match had been decided before the end was played.

The Manitoba-Ontario battle was by far the most interesting game to both the mostly pro-Manitoba fans and lo the many visitors. The lead changed hands four times and was tied on four occasions.

The last end was packed full of thrills as both rinks went all out. Manitoba was shot when Walsh sent in his guard. Clark raised on his own rocks to within inches of the West.erners' counter. both rocks touching the button. Walsh pushed in another guard. and Clark. alter deliberating for some time. shot at the rocks in front in an effort. to knock out the shot rock on It raise. He was inches off the mark and the game was over.

Jimmy Guy's inexperienced Northern Ontario foursome made a game fight before losing to Alberta ll-6. Guy aild third Jack Pike con- tinually found themselves facing numerous Alberta rocks and were forced to try difficult shots.

THE GUARDIAN. CHARLOTTETOWN MARCH 5. 1952

A major complaint ofilast sea- son concerned the inability of vis-

1 iting teams to dress enough men in

order to make an interesting game for the Islanders. The constant ren- elition of this practise. especially hv the Halifax Saints. was a source of indignation to the fans. Now the Islanders Hockey Club and the fans are up against another and more serious problem which con- ccrns the inability of visiting teams to reach here for their games.

Last night .'o.'....: third tline in I've rlavs the Islanders were left

Isiialidefi at their rink when the 9 Beavers failed to keen an engage-labove the Moncum Hawks.

.mcnt. Everythini: necessary for a .liockey game. except the Beavers .were on hand. Referees Larry Hef-

licrinz and Blair Filters were here.

iA good sized crowd was either in iihc rink or standing around out- 'side. The Beavers. however. were ;no closer to the Forum than they lliad been early yesterday morning Iwlien they passed through Monc- i ion by train.

Last. nishils came was to be the playing of a nostnoned game be- tween thn Islanders and the Bea: vars on February 20. It marked the fifth time in recent weeks that a name had been ncatnonerl here. Taking into account the Moncion game of two wchks non when only i few hundred fans showed up as a result of a severe storm. it act- ually has meant five lost rzatns for the Islanders. In terms of cool cash -this Ms nrnbablv meant a ins: nf .tln.0(in in the club. a staggering financial blow.

T! was with considerable Wei”- iration ihcrefnvn that the Island- rrs crvirh Tarn 7'-wlovrcllx and Club Pr:-siderlt. nr. F'.C. Dnurzan as well as a host n' others were indiqnaw over the Beavers failure to get here. It. was felt that the Beavers had about ll1l'Cr rhancesio com- nirio tho trln and the fact that they didn't. get here shnweri all in- difference on the nart of the Bea- vers that was a little, hard to un- derstand. As coach Lamoureux re- called. it was on New Year's Day that fhe”l'-leavers had begged the Islanders to ulav a postponed game in Saint John. "In order to accom- modate them we had to nlay seven games in nine days but they macr- inally got. on their knees asking us to go. They also promised that they would return the favor" stat- ed Len. It wasn't so long ago either that the Islanders flew in the rain to play the Beavers after being told in get to Saint John or else forfeit 31.000.

0 O O

This chance to repay that favor was last night. The Beavers were in New Glasgow on their way home from Sydnev Monday night. There they boarded the train and rode through Sackville and Moncion all the way to Saint John. There, was little to prevent them getting off at either Moncton or Sackville. spending the night in one of those centres and taking the train here last night. .

Instead they chose to return to Saint John and motored down tn Moncton by bus yesterday after- noon. An early afternoon flight left Moncion and landed in Charlotte- town at 2.40 but the Beavers were Just leaving Saint John at that time. When they did arrive in Moncton and the time came to fly. the weather conditions. which had been poor for filling all day. did not permit the M.C.A. plane to take off. That killed all chances cf the Beavers getting here.

But, with I. little effort they coul&'-have left Saint John earlier than may did yesterday. Then Jhey might haye caught the noon flight or if they couldn't make it they could have taken the train which they should have taken in thsvfirst place. But that wasn't the way the Beavers wanted it. In agreeing to play the postponed game they stipulated that they would either come by plane or not come at all.

Tonight. unless the rails are washed out the Miners will play at the Forum. Dr. Dougan was in telephone conversation with "Bud" Poile last night and Polls defin- itely stated that the Miners were leaving Halifax by train this morning. The game. known as event No. 36. will be the playing of last Thursday night's postpon- ed game between the bwo teams. That postponed game like the first one against the Beavers. the one against. Sydney Millloiisins or the one with the Minors on Monday night was something that was out of the hands of man :to contend with. . . .

the rink last night remained to see the Islanders go ihrough a, work. Dui. Missing from the practise was lcft winger Don Beliringer will likely be sidelined for a week or more with a back injury and Larry Travis. Don injured his back last week in Saint. John and has not been feeling well--for sev- eral days. Yesterday he had l1L'; back X-rsyed and it was unof- ficially reported that he needed at least a week's rest. Last night coach Lamoureux was using ii new line with the Islanders penalty- kiliiniz ac: "Hub" Beaudry at CHEW. .Willie Marshall on left wing and Denis Smith on right wing.

And still they come ifiio Halifax The latest arrival. Ralph Hocking saw action last night and his ar- rival in the Garrison city may be the sign that the Saints are bbginning. to"build their fourth team. Quite a number of fans are wondering just how long mi; in. flux from Buhfalo to Halilax can continue and will it continue into the play-offs. By the way that things are going now it would an- pear that there would be little to stop that saints from exchang- ing about half a dozen players with Buffalo should the compom. ion in the play-offs be a little too imiizh for the present band of Halifax pucksters. They may be . league ruling to prevent such act. ion but we haven't heard anything about it. " '

But. as one man stated last night. let the Islanders take in a man and see whatlhappeng. He was referring of course to the case of Paul Salndon. The Islanders had the blessing of the M. A. H.
