‘Beat The Challenging Q. S. S. Team 6-4 In Thrill - packed Game

In s. wide-open, pulsating battle that reached its highest pitch in a thrill-packed third period West Kent School team last night I'l- tained their City School title and C. F. Archer Trophy when with Queen Square holding a one goal lead they came roaring from be- hind in the last three minutes and 23 seconds of play with u three goal outburst that gave them s. 6-4 victory and with 1t the second win of the best of three series.

There was s. little bit of every- thing packed-into tiie stirring struggle between two squads that provided the large crowd of fans with one of the most exmting school games witnessed here in the last several years. Battling to a scoreless draw in a fast, rugged first period that saw both young Koalles rise b0 dizzy heights the West Kent team took a 1-0 lead late 1n tiie second period. Two more counters early lll the third session apparentl sealed the ver- dict for the defending champions but like a bolt out of the blue the challengers struck.

Outpiayed by a small margin up to this point tha Queen Square tide began roiling iii. The 5'15- tained and vicious offensive they lashed out with gave them four goaisﬂn the space of 3 minutes and 35 seconds and with it a 4-3 lead. The onslaught changed the complexion of the game altogether but with the final minutes tick- ing off West Kent once more tuck the upper hand. They evened the count at 11.37 and it remained for Keith Dalziel who along with Glover and Kennedy were potent factors all through the game. to seal the verdict. A minute and fifteen seconds before the end lie lent his team into the lead nii ‘passes from Kennedy and Glover and has back 35 seconds later for another this time on a pass from Kennedy.

Queen Square again rolled to the attack in the final seconds but could not punch through for tiic equalizers.

West Kent Breaks Deadlock

They played over 3i minutes a.’ scoreless hockey before West Kent broke the ice, McLean on a pass from Nicholson beating the Queen Square goalie with a. sliori. backhand drive from point blank range. The challengers seeking vii: equalizer were robbed uhcn the Wat Kent goalie oiitguessed Me- Callum from point blank range for the final scoring chance of the session.

But the lack of scoring was made up for l11 the third as the» shot nine goals between them with West Kent getting the odd one. Lesa than two minutes from the start Dalziel on a play with K€l1~ nedy made it 2-0 and Lwo n-iiiiutes later Bradley taking McLean's pass ran the count to 3-0 for the defending champions.

Then came Queen Square's great fighting effort. Sending every man up to the attach Charlie Cheverie bias-ted a shoulder" high drive int’) the cage oii a rink length dash. ii-i seconds later Gump Giliis made it 3-2 on a pass from Joe Coyie and the team went nearly mad 31 sec- onds later when Giiils poked Claude Field's pass from the side of the cage. The din was deafen- ing two minutes iifier that when Arnold McCallum fighting his way in around the defence snapped in the goal that sent the Queen Square team into the lead. It held until 11.37 when McLean on e pass fronf McNevin evened the lount at 4-|11. Daniel's two gamm winning efforts, mentioned above provided the anti-climax to what was drama of the ice lanes.

Uproar Over Thunder Bay Junior loam

(By Al Vlcksry, Canadian Press Staff Writer) , wmnrrrzs, Feb. i8 - (cm-- The rhubarb created by the Can- adian Amateur I-liockey Associa- tion's ruling which permits the Thunder Bay Junior champions to strengthen for the Memorial Cup playoffs, still is continuing.

This time, however, the lake- headers are given some support, as Tony (Winnipeg Trinbune) A1- lan takes up the torch in defend- ing the C.A.H.A.'s move, recently blasted by Lorimcr (Lethbridge Herald) Fenwick, who said the ruling would give Port Arthur Bruins "just about the most pack- ed Junior hockey club in the his- t/ory of Canadian sport..."

The Fenwick blast would have been more effective 1f he had been sure of his facts, said Allan.

"Fenwlck obviously doesn't know what he is talking about when he says the Bruins ‘proceeded to gather players trom every con- ceivable source except the Ontario Ladies’ College six’. . . very funny but it isn't true."

Allan noted that every member of the Bruins’ squad is a native of Port Arthur, and that any waving of greenbacks wps done by the Ontario Hockey Association junior clubs that raided the lake- head teams, and’ not by Port Arthur. ,

He was referring to the re-ac- quisition by the Bruins of Benny Woit and Rudy Migey from last years Dominion junior champions Toronto St. Michael's College. Both of these lads formerly play- ed with Port Arthur, were lured away to Toronto.

Now, the boys have returned to their own backyard but every so often the "crying towels” are produced as the hollering goes out that "Bruins are packing a team," said Allan.

Allan said that w-hiln other cit- ies in the West are supporting only one team, Port Arthur and Fort William are operating a four- tcam league, thus giving more kids an opportunity to play hockey.

The lakehead never has made a concentrated effort to build one strong Junior club, and this policy is detrimental to their chances of winning the Memorial Cup. There would be no need for either Fog

Arthur or Fort William _ strengthen for the playoffs, if each selfishly concentrated on

building one strong team. ...and so on into the night goes the ‘scussion. . . .

Prince County winners play off with the King's County finalists- Souris team meets the winners of Montague-Georgetown ‘for the right to clash with the Abegwelts for the Island title and a result- ing spot 1n the Maritime play- downs.

It could happen. Remember the.

days when Victoria Unions. led by the McLeod boys were ruling the roost in Island and Maritime iii- termediate circles. The Montague teams that a few years ago were always strong contenders and Bor- den squads of the pas-t that cap- tured titles. When they first start- ed out they were given very little chance so it might be with either O'Leary, Alberton or Souris earn- ing the right to face the un- doubtediy strong local squad.

Action should be plentiful at the Forum tonight during the playing of the juvenile double- header. There is probably mo:e competitive spirit among the min- or ieaguers than in the other older branches of hockey and if fans don't witness tiie finest play- ed hockey they certainly receive their money's worth by the blaz- ing action and all out efforts given by the youngsters.

Summerside Kinsmen, ‘gunning for their second Island crown in the past three seasons. clash with P. W. C. 1n the first game.

Juvenile Abbie: will be seeking revenge w-hen they tangle against the local Kinsmen in the seconu game, a scheduled City league encounter. Considered the "weak sisters" of the league at the out- set, Abbies have come along fast in their last few appearances and it will not be a bit surprising i1 they come thlough with a victory in tonight's encounter, a victory that would cause plenty of specu- lation among followers of the juveniles.

Basketball followers will have a chance of witnessing a double- header bill at Prince of Wales Auditorium when Saints and Prince of Wales, keen rivals for years clash in the first game at 7 o'clock and the league-leading Ray's Millionaires go against the Navy squad in the second part of the bill.
