Russians Rank Canada As Team To Beat Ind Hockey

OSLO (CP)—-Russia ranked its arch-rivals from Canada Wednes- day as the team to beat in the forthcoming world hockey cham- pionsliips—a conclusion that will hardly surprise the experts.

But team Manager Pavel Koro- tov appeared more confident than many of the experts that his pow-

‘ erful team will be able to take the title.

Most observers agree the tour- nament, starting this Saturday,

. will be decided March 9—the final day——when Canada and Rus- sia meet. / '

Russia arrived here Wednesday

' for final practices. Canada is due

Korotkov said Canada's Whitby team, which has crushed all op- position in a series of exhibition gaces since arriving in Europe Feb. 4, is stronger than Canada's last two representatives in world competition.

Canada sent Kitehener-Water- loo‘ Dutchmen, Allan Cup winners in 1955, to the Winter lympics at‘ Cortina d’Ampezz-o, Italy, in 1956 but the team lost to Russia. It also was upset by the United States entry and finished third. PENTICTON EASY VICTOR_

In 1955 Canada was represented by Penticton Vs, also Allan Cup champi-c-ns.‘ That team eas‘ly won

I today.

the world title, whitewashing Rus-

sia 5-0 in the final game.

—' While rating this year’s Cana- dian ‘entry higher, Korotkov thinks the Russian squad is im- proved, too.

“Our strategy is more ad- vanced now than it was.a year ago,” he said.

Russia was upset in hte cham- pionships last year by Sweden. Canada did not enter a team, pro- testing the Russian. suppression of the Hungarian revolt.

.“T=he Canadians play rhard, Very hard game,” Korotkov said. “But we're not worried. All our players are in great physical shape. They can take the knocks.”

McGUIGAN at BOYLE

The Prince County Fish and Game Association last night by a majority /vote deoised to re- commend that the fishing sea- son in the Province be left as it is at present, that is from April 15th to Sept. 15th. Consid- erable discussion arsose re- garding the advisability of chang- ing the present law to allow consensus of opinion at the end of the discussions was that it is more desirable to leave the law as it now is.

The meeting decided to take steps "to investigate the pos- sibility of having a booth en- tered in the lobster carival this year where a wild life exhibit will be displayed. Messrs Claude Harkness and B. I. Rayner were appointed to look into the

matter and get all details.

The meeting recommended that the provincial body he asked to

Fish And Game Holds Meeting

consider having a field day for all sportsmen in the province at a place and one a date to de- cided’ by the provincial organiz- ation.

The desirability of having in- formation regarding where hunt- ing and fishing licenses may be procured was given considerable discussion and it was decided to try and have this information inserted in pamphlets that are issued by the tourist bureau.

Sportsmen througliout the country are to be solicited by letter for contributions to be used to better the hunting and fishing in the province. It was decided that anv such funds collected would be kept in a seperate account and expended

_for that purpose only.

The matter of the letter dis- tribution was left in the hands of the executive. ‘

Dunlops Defeat Swedes Again

MALMOE, Sweden (AP)-Can- ada’s hockey team in the forth- coming world championships de- feated the local Swedish club 22-3 Wednesday night in an exhibition game in which the Swedes bor- rowed from the Canadian side to strengthen their lineup.

The ‘Canadians lo a n e d the Swedes two players——-a forward and a defenceman-—-and in the first period the Malmoe skaters took a 3-0 lead before the Cana- dians from Whitby could get roll-

g. All three Swedish goals were made by Swedes themselves.

Then the Whitby men started putt’ng on the pressure and at the end of the period they led 6-3. The Canadians piled up seven more goals and wound up with a nine-goal attack in the third period. 3'

It‘was the most one-sided score- of the Canadian exhibition series in Europe in wh'ch the 1957 Allan Cup champions won all of their 15 games. ?

It also was the last exhibition for Whitby in Sweden before t"e world championships ‘I in Oslo Norway, starting Friday.

Royas To Meet Flyers Tonight

Charlottetown Royals, forced into inactivity for a period of some three" weeks through a combination of circumstances that included the Dominion Schoolboy Curling Bonspiel held. here, get back into action tonight at the Sports Arena in_an exhibi- tion performance against Park- dale Flyers.

The Flyers, a well known name in local hockey circles, are en- tered in the Maritime Interme- diate “B” playdowns this sea- son, and their Slineup is a fairly formidable one including a nu- cleus of stars from last year‘s Island Senior League, plusi a number of promising local junior players.

WHITLOCK HAPPY

Coach Buck Whitlock of the Royals is more than a little bit happy about ‘the atmosphere in the camp of his club. “We called a practice for 10.15 Tuesday night, and there was 100 percent attendance”, said the Charlotte- town coach. “We have had two workouts this week, and most of the boys appear to have regained their playing edge already. Now

'all we need is »a-few games, and

can give us a good battle to- night.”

The Royals make their next step along the trail to the Mari- time Senior title in about two weeks’ time when they meet the winner of the Cape Breton Lea- gue playoffs. This could be a real ding-dong series, judging from the way Sydney Millionaires and Glace Bay Miners are going at it in the semi-final, so the Royals want to be ready for it. '

PARKDALE MAKEUP

The Parkdale team lists Gene Ward, a veteran of many senior contests, in nets. On defence they have Merle Longaphie, Jim- my Duffy, Harley MacLean, and manager «Barry Moore. Their forwards comprise Alf (Apps) Arsenault, Alan (Smelt) Gillis, Jimmy MacLeod, Dick Carroll, Harry Simmonds, Flick Landry and Gerald Cruwys. -Of these, Longaphie, MacLean, Moore, Arsenault, MacLeod, Carroll, Simmonds, Landry and Cruwys are all former Island League per- formers. Duffy and Gillis are re- cent graduates of junior ranks.

The Royals will -ice an intact lineup for tonight's game, which will get underway at 8.15.
