In View of the recent falling off of attendances at the home games, most support- ers had gone io the Monday night meeting expecting to hear the worst in the way of the Club's fi- nancial standing. . .

In fact they did get a bit of a jolt from the outset, of the meet- ing when President Rogers pre- sented a certified financial state- ment that showed the club in the red to the tune of S4,258.7l. He didn't keep them in that unhappy state for long. when he quickly followed up the reviewing of the statement with the fact that three ardent hockey supporters had voi- unnteered the financial backing of the club to tide them over the hump into the plstyoffs.

Major Rogers stated that the guarantors were not asking any- thing in return for their invest- ment, other than an honest effort on the part of the club to repay the amount throu-g-h receipts from the playotfs or by other means they might devise in a drive for additional financial backing. The gesture on the part of these public spirited and hockey minded back- ers has certainly given the club and the general hocky picture here a big liilt not only financially but morally as well. it shows a true appreciation of the work and ef- fort that both executive and team have done this season to put the Island back into the senior hockey picture in the Maritimes alter a lapse of some 15 years.

I O O I

It will give the Cl'UIb that much needed asistance to carry on into the playoffs without any great deal of financia-l worry and give the executive lihat brief interlude to organize and carry out a financial campaign, that when completed, it is hoped will put the club in I financially sound basis for the re- mainder of the season. Such a plan for a campaign for addition- .al financial backing was form- ulated at the same meeting, and a iuvo-man committee has already been appointed to wait on Mayor B. Earle MacDonald to request his patronage and support to head the drive.

0 0 0

Speaking on the proposed financ- ial drive, President Rogers urged all shareholders to get behind their club and executive to put over the program when it is organ- izcd. and judging from the react- ion of the meeting to his remarks. the campaign will find many will- ing workers from their midst to asurc the success of the venture.

. . o

Although the amount of some 34,000 seems to be a large amount to be in debt, if one follows the progress of other hockey clubs op- cra-ting in the Maritimes, they will realize that both the present and past executives that have handled the club's affairs have done a wonderful job. They have given fans here a winning hockey club and a snarppy brand of hockey right from the start. and with all that, have still managed to keep their deficit far below that of many of the other teams operating in senior hockey to date. We have .the smallest capacity rink and stop- portlng population of any team in the senior circuit, and yet can boast the best team to date and probably iiheiemalileet deficit. One couldn't ask for much more than

that. unless it be no deficit at all.

Fines Announced ' By President Of , Big Four league

HALIFAX. Feb. 20 - (CP) - Coach Leo Lamoureaux of Char- lottetown Islanders of the Mari- time Major Hockey League was fined s25 today for grabbing 1; ref- eree at the penalty box during a game with Halifax at Charlotte- town Feb. 8.

Judge J. Elliott Hudson. league president, said he had also told Lamoureaux to make a. retraction of a statement attributed to him Feb. 9 when Islanders bus was stolen in Halifax.

Newspapers at that time quoted Lsmoureaux as saying: "Here we have been flying to all Halifax games. And the one time we chart- er a bus. somebody goes and steals it. Thcyid steal anything from the Islanders here. Referees have been doing it all along in the Big Four games. Now it's our bus."

(Lamoureaux issued a state- ment last night saying his remarks were made in a jesting mood and that he did not mean to cast re- flection on the referees of the league). I

Judge I-fudson snld he had told Lamoureaux that.if the statement had not been made "further act- ion would be taken.”

City Employees. Win In Broom Bail FroiiLLP.ii.

Once again the City Employees' tream proved themselves to be the masters over the I... P. U. in the art of the Broom Ball when they defeated the Labor Union boys by a 1-0 count at the Forum here last night in a contest that produced a barrel of fun and amusement for attending fans.

The City squad scored a 2-0 shutout over the L. P. U. team here just a little over a week ago in the first of a two-game series.

The game was held prior to the start of the Big Four hockey con- test between Islanders and Manc- ton Hawks as an added attraction for local fans.

And an attraction it was too. with coach Doggie Kuhn of Mono- ton Hawks acting as referee with Forum Manager Bill Brown. the boys came up with a laugh and thrill a second when they battled one another through three keenly contested 10-mlnue periods.

Slipping, sliding and tumbling over the iced surface without even the aid of rubbers, both teams made some "terrific rushes that never ended in gains. but near cairastophy instead.

A penalty shot awarded to the City squad in the first period was the deciding factor. Defenceman Joseph Drain garnered the goal with a terrific golf shot from ab- out so feet that sent the basketball rocketing past goalie John Byers, who turned in a standout perform- ance all evening.

The following are the lineups:-

City-Gonl-Eddie Lawlor; de- fence, George wslreltn, Tucker Ryan (Capt), Joseph Drain. Pred- dy MacDonald; forwards. Dee Gil- iis, Jack Casford, James Kinslo, Wilf Mocloskey. Bill McEachern.

of last night clears the matter up," Mr. Hudson said.

I-Iughie Campbell, Eddie D'Aoust and Don lV.11cl..aughlin of Halifax and Phil vltale of Islanders re,-, ceived automatic sio fines for mis- conduct penalties in the Feb. 6 game.

Mr. Hudson said: "As the League playoffs are starting very shortly. I am warning all coaches that actions which cause their removal from the players' bench will not be tolerated and that in cases of removal they can expect heavier penalties than the one meted out in this instance."

HALIFAX, Feb. 20-, (CP) - I-lalifax St.4.li(Lary'5 added to their nlready imposing lead over the third-place Saint John Beavers to- night, registering a 4-0 shutout over the New Brunswick club in n rcguiar game of the Maritime Major Hockey League.

The victory maintained Island- are 13 point margin over second place Halifax Saint Mary's who garnered a 4-0 shutout victory over saint John Beavers last night, and puts the Islanders withdn one win of consolidating their first place position at the end of the regular schedule.

Forced to kill off three penalt- ies in the first eight minutes of play against an aggressive Mone- ton crew.

Moncton replied with their only goal of the game at 19:14 while Islanders played two men short.

Dmninating the play in a rough and ready second period that brought about eight penalties in less than nine minutes of play. Islanders whipped home four goals in a row without a reply from the opposition. Both teams played to a wide-open. keenly contested scorelus third period that came up with plenty of fast- skating hockey.

Two of Islanders goals. their first and seventh. were potted while they were playing a man

shy. Playing coach Leo Lamoureux was serving a hooking penalty on the first and Clements for inter- ference on the final one.

First Period

Waller Pawlyshyn got Island- on opening tally at 10:3 on a beautiful solo effort from behind his own blueline after Bucko Trainer had sent him in the clear with a smart pass. Pawlyshyn tore down the ice with only Lorne Smith back. worked his way around the'big ”efenceman. to go right in and fire home the disc from a hard angle that caught the open. right-hand corner of the net. The marker fired the Islanders to a whirlwind effort in the next minute and 21 seconds of play. Johnny Horeck came roaring back with brother Danny and Hub Beaudry just 44 seconds later on a smart 3-man attack to net his first of four goals on the night's play. Johnny Bot his second on a smart solo 43 seconds later. While Johnny Dutcbak was serving a major for fighting and George Mcuigan a minor for elbowing. Larry Dunville fired Moncton's lone rally with a hard. screened shot from just inside Islanders blueline during a Hawk: gang attack. Mousey Dowllng fed the big Monctondefenccman the pay- off pass. the goal coming at the 19:14 mark.

Early in the second period, Jack Morrow teamed up with Larry Travis and Trsinor to send the Islanders out in front 4-I. Mor- row tlpplng in a long. screened shot by ,TI'lIVl.s from the blueline. Tralnor setting up the play with a long passout during a hamm ing attack inside the Moncton blueline. The goal came at 2:45. and at 4:42, Islanders high-flying left winger Johnny Horeck put locals in front by five goals and garnered his third of the night. Picking up a loose puck just out- side his lawn blueline. Danny Hor- eck broke down the ice with Beaudry and Johnny. Hitting the red line Danny slipped a pass to " f .v who carried in over the bluellne to go right in before slipping a pass to Johnny who came roaring in off left wing to drive home the puck that beat Colvln cleanly. Johnny got his fourth at 5:07 on a power atta& around the net with Beaudry and Danny again.

From then on things roughen- ed up considerably. with little Frank "Iodine" lmontl starting the ball rolling when he charged Marcel Clements into the boards head first that took six stitches to sew up a bad gash around his mouth. lmontl was waved off for two minutes for the charging infraction, but Clements followed him to the penalty box where he went after lmontl that cost him a major for flgitlng. Both really throw their weight around from then on. The first penalties came at 7:40. and at 8:25, Dutchak went off for roughing and 70 seconds later Mousey Dowling and Me.
