Filchock had made no commit- ments as to whether he would return to Aloucttcs next fall. Some speculation in Montreal was that Filchock may intend only to finish out the season in the U. S. and listen in contract terms again from Alauettcs next year.

"IFS mighty good Li be back." Filchock said nfter the signing.

It appears that advance predic-

tions in this column concerning Tuesday night's clash between Is- lniiders and Moncton Hawks turn- ed a little sour over night when one considers the final verdict of that game. It was stated that the Hawks were not believed to be in i1 pcsltion yet to overcome the powerful Islanders. 0 0 0

But it didnt turn out that way

The Hawks did win, even though it was by the slimmest of mar- gins -- and one is obliged to take his hat off to them for that. They played good hcckey, their best per- formance over Clmrlottetown ice this season. They bored in all the time, backchccking and taking ad-' vantage of every break that came their way.

0 0 0

It is not the intention to tiy and make amends fcr being wrong- That was the case, and it might s well be acknowledged in that light. Many of the ardent follow- ers of the Islanders are wonder- ing where all the fire and power went. that was so much a part of the Islanders when they set the whole Big Four circuit agog with ten straight victcries. They showed little of it on the ice Tuesday night. with the exception of the last ten minutes or so of play in the third period after it was too late to do much abcut it.

0 . . They outshot the Hawks 12-4 in that frame, but were outscored I-ll True, Les COIl'in in the Hawks cage was really hot. there is no taking that away from him. But a lct of ragged play and wi'.:l shooting around the net on the part of the Islanders certainly made him look even better. Per- haps it was just a plain ”off night" for the Islanders, a team is bounrl to have one like that cnce in it while. It was 8. sure thing they dldnlt look like the same team that has been seen in action hero on prevous occasions this season. . c . There have been some kicks witnessed over local rugvby fields here in days gone by, but the general opinion of most fans at yesterday's match between S. D. U. nnd Abbies at the S. D. U. field. was that Art Perry of Abbies pulled the daddy of them all. Tak- ing the ball out. to his own 45- yard line after an unconvcrtcd Saints touchdown, the husky Abbie three-quarterback drop-kicked the ball right between the Salnts' goal posts 56 yards away. 0 I 0

The near-200 pound City athlete booted the ball in a perfect spiral that sailed over the cross-bar with plenty of room to spare in prob- ahly one of the smartest displays of kicking that has ever been wit- ncsscd here. The tough part. of the whole thing was. however, that he didn't get any points for his outstanding effort. I O 0 Everybody who witnessed the fear. we e so amazed with the per- fonman. . that at first nobody stopped to consider whether it was legal or not, until A-bbie coach Gordon Bennett himself expressed his doubts. After considerable friendly debating among referees. coaches and fans, somebody pro- duced a rule book that dispelled any doubt. Although we haven't the exact wording of the rule to quote from. the general ruling is that there can be no official scor- ing on a kickoff, or a drop-out kick after B. non-converted trv. Perry's kick came under the latter category. o n

That is reasonable enough when one stops to think about it. If every time a team scored a. try. the opposition were able to score W0 points on the kickoff (provid- ing such a feat could be ac- complished orften enough) it would be giving them an advantage they are not entitled to. It would also be putting the scoring team at a disadvantage which in it sense would be penalizing them

p for scoring.

0 O 0

Before the rule book hut been produced, conch A, J. McAdam and memlbers of saint Dunstan's faculty were so enthused them- selves with Perry's performance that they were quite willing to al- low the points to count. The gest- ure was a fine indication of the true sportsmanship that is the backbone of amateur sport.

THE GUARDIAN. CH ARLOTTETOWN

Saint Dunstan's University scored a 12-5 victory over the Charlotte- tc-wn Abcgweits in a smartly play- ed. exciting exhibition rugby game at the S.D.U. playing field yester- day afternoon.

Scheduled on short notice as strictly a practice session for Ah- bies in preparation for their forth- coming McCurdy Cup playoff game against Glace Bay Caledonians this Saturday, the game produced one of the keenest sessions to be wit- nessed here this season.

Four well-earned touchdowns for Saints, garnered by Jerry Clinton, George Cameron, Charlie Cheverie and Joe Mullally, paced the Univ- ersity men to victory,-while a bril- liant 80-yard run by Bennett Mac- Donald of Abbies, with Art Perry making good the convert, hccount- cd fer the Abbies' five points.

It was a scintillating game that was wide-open and produced plen- ty in the way of smart ball hand- lmg. fast. backfield running it- tncks and long kicking gains. but it. was left to Art Perry, husky Ab- bie threo-quarter man, to steal the show for individual effort.

Perry Makes Record Kick

Perry came up with one of the greatest feats of kicking that has probably ever been witnessed over a local rugby ficld- Following 0 touchdown by George Cameron of saints at the twenty minute mark of the first half, unconverted by Camcrcn himself, Perry took the ball out to his own 45-yard line to drop-kick it over the bar 55 yards away. It was a beautiful spiral kick that went right between the up- rights xmrl over the bar with pleu- ty of room to spare. According to the rule book, houever, the kick- ing fcat didn't garner any points for the Abbies. The rule book states that a drcp-out or kickoff that goes over the bar does not count for points, It is not considered :1 field goal.

Play was close and open in the first half with both teams coming up with classy running attacks, the Abbies in particular doing smart reverse field passing that gained st lot of territory and crime close to paying off in the early stages. Forcing the play into Abbies zor.c arounil the ten minute mark. Clin- ton cnme up with the first try for Saints at the l3-minute mark.

It was B. tricky backfield attack. Joe Mulliilly reversing his field frcm Abblcs 25-yard line at the right side, passing to Cameron who carried across to get it out to Clip- ton on the wing who went over on the left carrier. Saints went over again seven minutes later to run the score to 6-0. Taking the ball Irom a scrum on Saints 20. Cam- ercn crashed his way right through cr-ntrc to down the ball right be- tween the uprights. it was follow- ing that score that Perry made his sensational kick.

MacDonald Makes 30 Yard Run

Abbies' three-quarter man, Beu- nett MacDonald. ended the scar- ing for the half, fntercepting a pass on his own 25-yard line. MacDonald broke out on a beautiful field-lengtn run right down centre field for one of the smartest efforts to be wit- nessed here in many 3 day, Dow:i- lng the ball right between the gcal posts, it gave Perry a straight away kick for the convert and an extra two points, to end the half 6-6 ii: favor of S. D. U.

Saints showed to much better advantage over their opponents in the final half when they forced the play almost continuously into the Abegwelt sector with smart back- field attacks and rack up two more tries. staunch defensive work on the part of Abbies kept them from scoring on a. number of other oc- cartons.

Three quarters Charlie Cheverle sent. the score to 9-6 on a smart at- tack with Mulially. Cameron Ind Clinton from about 40 yards out at the eight minutc mark. while Jo-2 Mullally sent the count to an even dozen in the last minute of play. Mullally fell on a. loosely kicked biill that rolled over the Abbie goal line. Cameron missed the convert attempts for all four saint.s' tries, most; of them from difficult Angle.-i. The referee: for the guns were Joe shreenan and Wally mid. Following an the lineups:

S. D. U. Fullback. Mallettcz halves, Joe Mullally, Cameron: three-quarters. cash, Ohwerie, Ken MacDonald. Clinton; forwards, John Mullally, Ralph McQuIid. Menard. Pendergut. G. Callaghan. Dunphy;
