Hawks Defeat Santamarians

(By The Canadian Press)

MONOION. N. 13., March 10- Moncton ilawks, champions of the. Maritime Senior Hockey League. demonstrated tonight that there is a. difference between top calibre junior and senior liockcy in the seaside provinces by defeating Halifax St. Mary's. defending Mor- itime champs, 12-4.

On the eve of the opening of the Maritime senior finals with Sydney Millionaires. Hawks gave the appearance tonight of u team capable of. naming the score bc- fore the start/of caclrperiochthen producing it.

indications are tnATQRne. large crowd will witness the Nova Scot- iaris in action.

a a

Due to their defeat at the hands of Summerside many o! the fans were of the opinion that the coni- petltion offered the visitors would be of the poor variety but such will not be the case. Abegivcits. with all due credit to the. Sum- merslde victory. a-rc a better hoc- key team-than they showed in Monday's debacle and for Satur- day night's game will be strength- ened bythe appearance of threc popular hockeyists who this year played their hockey in the Cape Breton League.

e e

Waliie Shephcrti“ Allie Carver and Cecil Bowling. pony line of the Ncrthside Vics -arrived back home the other night and it. was learned last night the trio would play as a. unit against the Stellar- ton team. Their presence will add punch and defensive strength to the locals‘ attack and should place the libbies as even bets to take the measure of the Stcliarlon squad.~

Shepherd. Carver and Dowlinig played some smart hockey for the Northside team during the season. Particularly was this true in the latter stages of the race and the semi-finale. Tlicy were hitting tlic scoring summaries consistently with timely goals and ujere very popu- lar with the fans. and it is likely that if they so desire, the trio who are still eligible for Junior ranks will be back to old stamping grounds when next season rolls a- round.

Included on the Royals lineup are two Island boys in the persons of cliff Jackson and Boo Morri- son, the latter from Summerside. Both boys have proved valuable cogs in the machine in their suc- . czssfui drive to the AIKC. league ' title, and their performances will be watched with interest.

' I i O

And another well known sports fan and a former Islander is also uith the squad in the person of "Nanny" Morgan. brother ~of Harry Morgan who was goalie for the Abegweits in their heyday. Since moving to New Glasgow a good many years ago "Nonny" has taken‘ an active part in athletic circles there. and he can speak authoritatively on the main bran- ches of sport with which he has been connected both as a player and official.

Hockey hasn't been his only love for he has followed all branches including the harness racing game. Sickness laid the popular “Nonny" low for a spell a few years back but on regaining his health. he was right back in the midst of whims-athletic and new is trainer of the Royals, a job in which ha ‘compares with the best. He has s host of friends in Charlottetown who will give him a real welcome.

University Team Forced T 0 Come ‘From Behind

In Closing

A thrill s. minute was the tempo last night at the Forum as 5.D.U.l and Navy battled to s. 6-5 draw. in the city Hockey League playoff opener. A dispute arose as the.’ final bell rang as to whether or. not an overtime period would be played. President 8am Doyle and secretary Gordon Bennett of thel

City Hockey League ruled that an, 1

overtime period would be played but the Navy team failed to take the ice due to some unexplained misunderstanding. 5.D.U. refused to Itart the overtime session un- opposed and u s. result the game wears-ruled a draw. ,

1t was one of the hardest fought encounters this winter and pro- vided wide qaen fast hockey all the way. Al; the end of the first period Saints had the lead 2-1 but Navy came -back in the second session to outscore the Collegians two goals to one to start the third period with three goals apiece. In the third period Saints again wont ahead but were forced to be the underdogs for the first time in the game when Navy banged in two quick goals in succession a- bout the halfway mark. Rodgers‘ goal at 15:58 erfiicd the scoring and left the teams at a 5-5 dead- ioc .

First Period

‘The game opened very fast and it was evident from the start that the period would provide wide- ovpen hockey. The Saints started with Mahar. MacDonald and Hcude opposed by the Navy front line of Higson, Perry and Jay. Mahar missed the first rcalchancc of the game when he was put in the clear by lfoude, while Jay o! the Navy returned thtacomplim- ent when he was robbed at goal- mouth by Shorty MacKiunon when coasting right. in on top. Just be- fore the four minute mark saints went into the lesd when Malia: on a pass from MacDonald skated right in on Davis to score the opening, goal. The play became wide open and both teams missed great chances on breakawaya. The Navy evened the score before the seven nunuu mark when Higaon and Jay went into the clear in a nice passing attack which ended up with Jay beating MaoKinnon with a. high shot to the right hand corner. Saints evened mat- ters taking advantage of the short-handed Navy while Jay was resting for cross-sticking. The per- iod ended with the Saints at s one goal advantage.

Iecond Period

It was a thrill packed ascend period which saw three goaiaacor- ed with the Navy coming out on even terms, outscorlng Saints t/wo goals to one. The period opened in the same wide open, crowd-

hepea for this miss as they came through the Island playdowm without an injury and they will have the services of Charlie Dclgnan for both games.
