The victory halted New York’s winless streak at seven and sent them five points up on Detroit Red Wings who were mauled 41 at home by Milt Schmidt's Boston Bruins. Right now those five points would seem enough to give the New Yorkers that last

From the Junior Garrison, Sandy has obtained Orin Carver, Art Perry and Merrill Pineau.
Glancing at the two teams
Royals had the most formidable looking squad. They have a Jot of fine hockey players but whether they will go smoothly as a
unit is a big question.
ACES HAVE BEEN dine since early fall. They know each o'her’s every move and they are young and fast.
Some folks are predicting that Royals shouldn’t encounter too much trouble with the westerners, especially after the way the Navy-Aces series went. They are calling the Royals to win
the provincial crown handily.
Ve won't disagree with them when they maintain Royals should conquer. However, we feel it’s going to be a tough series and that the Charlottetown club is going to have to step lively

Only one rink remained unde- feated as play was completed yesterday in the third and fourth rounds of the provincial ladies curling championships being held at the Charlottetown Curling Club.
Mary MacLennan's city four- some defeated two opponents to take the lead in the race for the title and the Crockett Tro- phy that goes with it with a 30 mark
Miss MacLennan built up a good lead and held on in the late ends to defeat Evelyn Cud- more of Montague 8-7 and came from behind with a big rush in the last four ends in the after- noon to stop Margaret Perry of Auberton 13-7.
BIG GAME
Miss MacLennan meets Blan- che ‘Smith's Montague rink this morning in a match that will go a long way in deciding the champion. A victory for the.city quartet coupled with a loss for Anna Hayes’ Summerside rink in any of her three matches to-
day would assure at least a tie!
for the championship for Miss MacLennan.
In the event that a tie occurs at the end of the seventh round this evening, the playoff will be held Friday.
However, should Miss Mac- Lennan sweep her morning match with Mrs. Smith and de- feat Mrs. Hayes in the afternoon her rink will reign as the new provincial champion.

day’s play with a 2-0 record but fell to Mrs. Smith's foursome. She had a bye in the afternoon round.
