Saints Defeat Atiantics 69-54; Reardon Scores 49

The Saint John Atlantics baa- ketball coach Dave Stothart has geen some pretty fair basketball players in his time but he never new the equal of the shooting exhibition given by Jack Reardon on Saturday night as Saint Dun- stan's University defeated the At- lantics 69-54 in the first game of a total points series in the NE.-

lBob Fry who paced the visitors on their final drive. Fry started ihitting during the final minutes and scored nine important points. Frank Galley. a big. effortless player scored seven points and Bruce Martin six.

With Reardon scoring 40 of his team's 69 points there wasn't many left for the rest of the boys.

Bill Warwick. (ianatla's spark- plug throughout the 10-day tourn- ament. made it 3-0 early in the second period-his 13th goal of the series-and Shabaga scored again at 11:29. Warwick's shot was a bullet-like drive which struck the stick of Russian de- fenceman Nikolai Solugubov and deflected into the net.

The Russians became disorgan- ized in the last period and the Vs rattled home two quick goals. Bill Warwick scoring after 32 seconds of play and George Mac- Avoy was collecting the fifth and last goal at 2.22.

The win. which gave Canada its 15th world title in 20 tries. was far easier than anyone had anticipated. The Russians tried only one attack pattern and when this failed their offensive man- oeuvres slowed down to a walk. BEAT RUSSIAN SYSTEM

The quick - thinking Canadians realized what the Russian setup was early in the game and they devised a system to meet it. The Russians were unable to change.

As the game ended penalties had reduced the Canadians to four men on the ice bill they were more than enough to hold the Russians who put in sub- goalie Grlgory Krkychnn after the last goal was scored.

The Canadians drew six of the seven penalties to bring their number for the tournament to 33. totalling 72 minutes.

TRIUMPH FOR GAME

The way the Vs bent Russia was a triumph for the game as it is played in Canada.

The Vs were always on the puck first, skated harder and faster. dug in more and floored the Russian forwards with a suc- cession of clean bodychecks in the second period.

Vsevolod Bobrov. the Russian star. was dumped twice within seconds by Grant Warwick and Hal Tarala.

Tarala sent him swandiving on his nose with a check on which a penalty was called. It would have been okay in Canada.

In the main the Russians seem- ed to suffer most from lack of vigor and bite. They worked a cross-rink pass effectively and their wingers looked pretty fair. They gave goalie Ivan Mrl.ell.-ind a couple of close calls but they were never really in the game. EIGHTH WIN

The win was the eighth strziigltt for the Canadians in the round- robin tournament while the loss was Russia's first. In overall per- formance Canada outscnred the Russians 66 to 39.

Canada finished with a total of 16 points. Russia was second with 14 while Czechoslovakia finished

Playing coach Grant Warwick said it was strictly a case of out- smartlng the nusslans. "That Bobrov (Vsevolod Bobrov. leading Russian player) never got a shot on goal. We got on to him in the first period. We played strategy all the time. That Bobrov is it pretty good hockey player. just the same."

German crowds have frequently booed the Canadians during the tournament but Sunday night they joined in the Penticton chant. "Go Vs go" as the Canadians asserted their mastery. The large Canadian cheering section rocked Krefeld stadium with explosions of sound. using cowbells, trumpets. rattle: and other nolsemaking parapher- nalia.

DIDN'T THINK

Somebody in the dressing room shouted at little goalie Ivan Mc- Lelland. who had four shutou' in the eight games:

”Were your nervous. Ivan?"

''I just wasn't thinking out there in the first period." replied Mc- Lelland. "I kept my mind blank. Then in the third period I started to think a little.

"I finally realized the score was 5-0 and I wanted to keep it that way. It looks pretty impressive in 1:8 records. I started to worry t en."
