The Island Interscholastic hoc- key championship will hang in the balance tonight when Elmer Blanchardis Queen Square School squad, City and King's County champions, will clash with the Summerside High School pucksters at Victoria rink in a sudden death encounter.

Both teams are packing plenty of power on their lineups this year and have been turning in some really smart performances in regular scheduled competition, with tonight's game promising to the highlight of the seasons play when the two squads cross sticks -in a do or die encounter.

To suggest who will be the final winner would be purely guess- work as both teams are so evenly matched that it will be just the breaks of the game that will more than likely decide the issue. But. there is one factor that hoc- key fans from Summerside, Char- lottetown and Victoria can rely upon and that is that it will be a ivell-played, keenly contested af- fair that will produce plenty of action. _

Smyllieforbsiders leafs lucky

By BUD “WEEKS

BOSTON. Mar. 24—(CP)—"We were lucky the Bruins went: back on defence in that third period." was Conn Smythe’s summation tu- nlghl: after his Toronto Maple Leafs edged Boston. 3-2. for their second straight play-off victory at Boston Garden.

"when they were driving us as they did at the outset," Smythe said in the dressing room, “they had us off balance."

"But when they dropped back after getting a 2-1 advantage, they gave us a chance to score."

The jubilant)‘ leafs had little time to waste after the hectic contest. A bus was waiting out- side the Garden to take them to South Station where they were to board the 11 pm. train for Buf- falo.

The team was to change there for a bus t0 take bhem to their training site at St. Catherine-k. Ont. where they will be in sec- lusion until Saturday's third tilt in Toronto.

In the Boston dressing room. the players seemed puzzled at the third period surge that gave the Leafs the victory.

BOBION. . March M —(A.P) -. Toronto's Maple Leafs , went two victories up in their best o! aevcn, ‘Stanley Cup series tonight by again beating the Boston Bruins, t time by a 3-2 soore. » '

The victorious Leafs charged off the Boston Garden ice, eager to hoard the train for home where they entertain the Bruins Saturday and Tuesday nights. The winner of this series will oppose the winner of the De- troit-Montreal play-down for the

National Hockey League's prised

Stanley Cup.

Once again it was big Harry Watson who was the right man in the right time for the blue-skirted Leafs. .

Watson banged home two oLthe winners’ goals before a packed 13.- 900 crowd.

The other was drilled intothe Boston net by rookie Ray Timgren.

Scorers for the Boston Bruins. who played in much better fashion tonight than they did Tuesday while losing 3-0. were veteran Woody Dumas-t and Paul Romy, a comparative newcomer.

While Pat Egan was .off for slashing Max Bentley. and Ed Sah-dford was off for cross check- ing Blll Barilko, Tlmgren tipped in a shot by Max Bentley at 3:36 of the opening period.

Dumart tallied for Boston at 5:- 02 while the Bruins stll-l w-creli man shy. He shot from a seemingly impossible angle to the right of the Leaf cage. The puclf‘ glanced off Turk Brodifs stick, bounced off the goal pipe and into the net.

Bruins went ahead 2-1 in the second period whllc Toronto had a man in the penalty box. Ronty tipped in captain Milt Schmidt's hard d-rive at 17:24.

Cal Gardner passed out frc-m the left boards to Watson whose 30-. footer eluded Brimsek at. 18:41. Gardner.
