The Saints and Primrose: play- ed an even-steven game for 40 min utes but in the third period Saints ran away from the hard-pressing Montague crew outscorlug them 6-3 after building up a 4-2 lead in two periods of fast hockey.

The first period ended all even at 2-2 but the Saints took over the lead in the second with two un- answered goals.

The ”old Pro" Joe Mahar. shunted back to I defense post for the second game, was the big man in a scoring way for Saints sharing honors with centremen Ray Gionet. Both players fired 2 goals and picked up two assists.

Gionevs linemate rightwinger Jean Lemay shot another pair of goals and helped out on one. Gas- ton Roy, Jack MacDonald, Johnny Whelan and Gerald Murphy ac- counted for the other S.D.U. mark- crs.

DOWLING GETS TWO

Montague playing coach Cecil (Bubby) Dowling shot two goals for the Primroses and chipped in with two assists for four points. Apps Arsenault. Stu MacLure and Billy Hughes got the others.

The game was wide-open and plenty rugged especially in the sec- ond period as the two teams threw

One of the year's smaller crowds. in the vicinity of 400 fans, saw the two teams play a fast first period of hockey in which the Primrose: twice took the lead and twice lost it. George MacDonald, making his first start of the season on the def- ense for Montague. set up a nifty goal at 5:03 to celebrate his return to the Island wars. MacDonald took Dowllng's drop pass at the

SAINTS TIE SCORE

It took Saints seven minutes to tie it up and Jean Lemay did the

Bon Dillon's pads after the Man- tague goalie had stopped Gaston Roy from in close. Montague went one up again as Apps Arsenault converted Dick Carroll's short pass into a goal and less than a minute later Joe Mahar shot his first goal and tied the score at 2-2 as he whistled a shot from the hluellne that caromed off George MacDonald's skate into the net. The Saints shot two goals without a return in the second period and frorri that point on were never headed. Lemay gave them the lead for keeps when the period was only ll seconds old. making good on Gionet's pass. At 7:10 of the period Gionet got n clear cut break away from centre ice as a result of some sloppy defensivu work and gave Dillon no chance. Thnt
