Q. s. S.‘.Captures Island Interscholastic Hockey Ch’ship In‘. Overtime

The Queen Square school hoc- keyists captured the Island Inter- scholastic Hockey Championship and the Crockett Trophy at the Forum last night when. they squeezed out a close 14-13 victory over Summerside High school in a sudden death game for the title.

It was one of the smartest games d hockey to be witnessed at the Forum this season, and the Q. S. 3. boys had to do it the hard way. Summerside, displaying really smart hockey ability, held a 9-5 lead over the local youngsters going into the third period, but the lat- ter put on a terrific last period drive to knot the score at 11-11 by the end of regular playing time and send the game into 10 min- utes of overtime. It was a. furious ten minutes of hockey, with Q. S. S. going ahead by one goal on two different occasions only to have summerside roar back to tie it up again, and it looked very much like it would go into add- itional overtime, when in the last 33 seconds of play. Charles "whiff" MacDonald banged home, the de- ciding counter for the game and the title.

Although the scoring was high, the play was not lax by either team in any department, and was a wide-open, free scoring encounter that was packedfull of rugged ac- tion and smart passing attacks.

Turning in an excellent per- formance for his team, Paul Schm- man of Summerside was the lead- ing goalgetter of the night with the large number of six to his credit, while teammates Junior

Dalton accounted for the other tallies with four, two and one re- spectively. Charley MacDonald, Wendell Burke and Gillls turned en really top-notch performances for Queen Square and were the power behind their offensive, Mac- Donald garnering five, goals and the other two tallying four each. while Cliff Giliis got the other marker. ,

summerside led by I. I-2 score at the and of the first, 9-5 at the end of the second, with Queen squarstying it up at eleven all at the-Zppd of the third, and outscore

Rangers Pin

By AL COLLETTI

, NEW Y0 . March as — (CP) .. A e Ranger strategy may either backliire or mean a rough time for Maurice (Rocket) Richard when Montreers speedy cauadiens meet New York here to- morrow night in the opening game of the best-of-seven Stanley Cup semi-final plgyoffs.

Coach Lynn Patrick of the Run- gers today made known that he is concentrating particularly on the National Hockey League's No. 1 goal—getter who. with his star lins- ‘mates, Elmer Lach and Norm Dus- sault, burned up the circuit in the last three weeks of regular play.

Patrick said that if his No. 1 line can't slow up the Montreal powerhouse he'll give the job to his No. 2 trio of centre Don Ral- eigh, Ed Slowlnski and Pentii Lund.

Everything hinges on how the injured left knee of Edgar La- prade stands up. Laprade. pivot of the No. 1 line, worked out with his teammates this morning and didn't spare the speed.

Patrick probably will start Ls- prade and wingers Tony Ieswick and Duncan Fisher against l..ach- Rlchard-Dusssult. Leswick will have the job'of backcheuking Richard.

With 9. bagod 43 goals during the regular season including 10 ‘ ' the Reuters, Richard is strictly a "clutch" player when it oomesto playoff hockey.

Even though the Abbies held the balance of the play in the sand- wich session, they couldn't any more than break even with Cry- stals at a goal each to trail by a 4-1 count at the end of that time, having to contend with the very stqutest type_ of defensive actio.,on the part of the Summer- side team as a whole, and goalie Bill Sprague in particular, who was nothing short, of superb in his performance at times. 0 O C 0 But what happened in the first two periods. was nothing as to What took place in the final frame.

Harper Hospital reported tonight.

The 22-year-old wingmnn was fe led in the third period in a pxny that may turn this Stanley Cup semi-finals. into a ‘-“grudge series."

As coach Tommy Ivan of Detroit saw the play, the Leafs’ Ted Kennedy was skat- ing in with the puck when is collided with Howe. Ivan said the butt of Kennedy's stick struck Howe directly on the right eye, felling him.

"I'm not saying it was in- tentional. but the check was there all right and Howe was hurt." Ivan declared.

Kennedy, on the other hand, said he never came in con- tact with Howe. "I was skat- ing in to shoot when Howe and Jack Stewart converged to check me. The next thing I knew I was by them and Bill Barilko shouted to me that Howe was down on the ice. ‘

“Gordie is one of my" friends and I certainly would never do

‘him any harm," Kennedy add-
