It was s rough engagement with "me ‘l“?Z1ll'\8 hockey thrown in, but while the teams were shorthanded. which was often, they swung back on the defensive and employed the various stalling methods. The only goal of the gamecame early in the

hundred and fifty calls. The deluge ef enquiries from interested hockey fans throughout the city and pro- vlnee. began to fan on towards midnight, but calls continued to trickle in as late as two o'clock this morning. One chap in pomorugr gave us a “ring” at exactly 2.30, and when acquainted of the result, thanked the tired Sports Ed. and added-now l’ll go to bed. where was this rabid fan ot that hour of the morning, if not in bed?

Fianked by Sammy McManus. the big defense drew Lavigne and Gra- ham togcther before slipping a pogo over to McManus, who skated in be- fore rifling the rubber into the up- per corner of the net.

The fsns put up s mighty your

sbout midway in the first period. when McManus and James crashed through on Sergeant and in s. scramble McManus shoved the rub- ber into the_goal. Sergeant pulled it out and the goal judge apparently did not see it.

Lennon, playing at centre, was the

outstanding threat for the Wolves tonight, although Ferguson gave him able support. Gordon Kennedy was used sparingly.

Shields and Gill in Fist Fight,

i

High sticks, charging and illegal checking were much to the fore. Shields and Gill tangled in earn- est when the Wolves' right winger pushed the Hawk defenseman back ,with his stick near the Halifax blue- line. The boys laid down their sticks and wept st it. Gill had an advantage and pounded Shields heartily ss the referees stood by and looked on. They were given ten minute penalties each.

The Hawks had the better of the

play tonight, but erratic passing and poor shooting cost them addi- tional goals. The W_olves tried hard' but seemed unable to solve the blocking tactics of the Hawk rear- guard and the relentless back- checking of the Nlcklin clan.

The 'lone goal, resulting from

While Fredericton did good de-

fensive work, Beavers had the edge in the first two periods, and outplayed their opponents by a. wide margin. during the final twenty minutes. The ice was very sticky.

Stepping onto the ice at thc

Forum last evening the Abbie and Millionaire Sisters showed plenty of speed and pep in their initial encounter of the season. The wcarcrs of the red and black, show- ing greater superiority on thc attack, registered s four to nil victory. Making sortie after sortie on the Millionaire's net, the Ab-

bie front liners were only prevent-

cd from adding to' their scoring by the sterling net minding of Anna. Bennett, Millionaire nctminder, who stopped shots from all angles. On the other hand, Doris Rodd, Abbie net guardian, put in a quiet evening s.s‘ all Mil- lionaire plays came to s. standstill at the Abbie Sisters' defence,

The first counter was marked up

when “Moo” Weeks, holding down left lane, got in a nice wing shot to rattle the rubber past Bennett within three minutes of tho face off. Vimy Jones, who played a whsle of a. game in the pivot posi- tion, tallied tlie second marker at the four minute mark when she slipped past the Millionaire defense A0 5l\°0l 5 N811 one past Bennett who sprawled in an attempt to save. S. Cunningham, playing centre position on the second line, got the third Abbie marker near the close of the period.

Vimy Jones scored the last Abbie

goal in the first minute of the sec- ond stanza oii a. lone effort. The Millionaires rallied to hold the Ab- ble Sisters scoreless the remaining twenty-nine minutes. and tried to force the play as they started counter attacks, but their every gt. tempt was frustrated by the ras; skating Abbie forwards. The hock. ey of the evening came in me third Period when both teams opened out, especially the Million- sires, who made desperate efforts to prevent a shut out. Both their front, lines and defense play- ed hard, but again the Ab- bie ranks proved impenetrable and they were forced to bend to the above decision. Three penalties were handed out by ref- eree Fred Moore in this session. Amy Wheatley or :hs Millionaires drew the first forced rest to be followed shortly after by Jones and Mclnnis of the Abbies.

Chick Williams coached llic Mil-

N0 EVIDENCE

(Continued from Page 1)

‘ The Winnipeg syndicate, said Mr. Bennett, “has produced no evi- dence that it has any agreement with the Soviet Gcverxuncnt and no communication regarding the proposal has been received from iliom.

The Prime Miuislei"s slzilcmeiit

which was made in the course of a lengthy review cf' the iracie rela- tions between Ciinada and Russia, follows: “While returning io Cali- ada. from Great Britain, in Decem- ber last, I received press messages that an agreement had bun con- cluded between Canada and Russia for the exchange of Canadian cattle, hides and other commodities for Russian petroleum and coal. I rc- plied that there was no foundotioll for such reports, No commimica- tion of any kind has been received from the Soviet -Government in this regard.

"It would appear that one G. G.

Serkau, with certain associates, con- ceived the idea of doing s. 'barter business with Russia and Mr. Ser- kau, having seen Mr. Weir, the Min- ister of Agriculture. at Ottawa, pro- ceeded to New York and later to Moscow in connection with the business. Although he alleges that he had conimunlcalion with the authorities there, he has produced no evidence that he has any agree- ment with the Soviet Govemment and no communication regarding his proposals has been received from them. The merc statement of what the proposals of Mir. Serkau are would be sufficient to indicate that this Lg an effort to make very substantial profits under circum- stances to which 1 shall presently refer. On tho mst December last. Mr. Serkau wrote Mr. Weir, the Minister of Agricultiue, as follows:

“Since we aim to obtain for thc

Canadian cattle producers nt least five cents for grade and a much higher fprlcc for registered stock, the total amount payable lay the Russian Government for 100,000 head of cattle, including freight, etc., will be in thc iicigliborliood of $8,000,000. On the other linnd, the pric/es at Black. Sea polls of iho commodities thai, Russia is to givc in return are so low that it will rc- quirc an`ci1oi~mcus tonnage of pclf

rclcum products, ctc.

The total amount involv- cd in such guarantees I ‘would esti- mate at not more than $4,000,000. at any time and only very little of these 'bonds will remain unpaid at the end of the term, for the reason that we will be taking deliveries continuously and the valuc of such deliveries will be applied on the

bonds, `

" 'In asking for his _support from

the Government, our corporation would be prepared to employ the 'Government’s nominee as comptrol- lei- of disbursements and receipts.

"I learned abroad that the Ger-

man Govemment established s. credit to Russia of $75,000,000 and csshfxi Russian bonds at par as these bonds were received by Ger- man exporters and presented to the treasury. The British Gowrnment guaranteed Russian bonds received by British exporters Lo ilu: oxtehli of 60 per cent. This partial guaran- tee satisfied the British exporters. owing to the foot that they increas- ` ed their" prices io Russia to .such an extent that 60 per cent, paid them for their iuerciiaudise, .plus reasonable profits. Our case is some- what different, inasmuch as the increase in prims of livestock from the present market price of two and one-quarter cents to five cents per pound, will enure to the benefit of the producers and not to our cor- poration. Tlieroforc, it will be nec- cssary for us to have balances fully

guaranteed.
