Better games have been played bi" both teams. but toi- sheer ex- riieincnt and see-saw battling last night's contest was tops. The first two periods saw the lead change hands no less than four times as the Crystals showed that they were hr from out of the running. They were outplayed badlyas the Abbies itiiged that garrison finish, but it would have taken a mighty good louad to hold the locals at bay in the third session as they passed ind skated their way into the lead oi what has every promise of be- hg o close playofi‘ series.

Before the game was three min- lites old Abbies had skated into a. tire-goal lead, Coach Kane going through alone in the first minute for the first one and Whelan tak- ing Cudmores pass for the next. Crystals however took but twelve minutes to draw up on even terms as Gallant and Schurman, the dy- nnmitc duo of the visitors notched a goal apiece on passing plays. Two minutes later Mclnnis pushed the locals to the front again as he blazed his first goal of three be- hind the Crystal goalie.

Never knowing when they were beatcn Crystals took the leadfor .lhe first time in the game in the first ten minutes of the middle rhukkcr on counters by Schurman and Cahill, but it was short-lived at Stewart sank the equalizer; but before the period was over Sum- merside took the lead agaimMont- gomery realizing as he took a per- lect pass from an Abegweit player to blaze an ankle-high drive be- hind Stull. There was only about thirty seconds remaining in the period.

Crystals struck fast in the third pcriod and the session was only a minute old when Schurman sank another Crystal counter to send his team into a two goal lead, but the Abegweits struck like light- ning in the next two minutes and Kane and Whelan again tied the game up. Popped up, the Abbles swarmed all over the Crystals in the next ten minutes but over-. aiixiousness robbed thorn of goals. Crystals were hanging on desper- ltely and it remained for Mclnnls to break the deadlock. Awarded a penalty shot Ken took the chance ind he made no mistake, strapping l blazing drive into the twines and then to make his three-star per- loriiiance complete- he skated through alone 30 seconds later in register with another vicious drive The losers fought back hard but the Abbie mnchiiie was in high gcai" and it was the figure of the Buminersidc goalie that kept the acorc from mounting. He had to bend again at the 18 minute mark, [his time Stewart registering on Carinichaefs pass.

ll was the last Abbie score of the game but Crystals weren't qiiitc through. and before the final whistle Schunnnn circled the Ab- bio cage to shoot the seventh Crys- inl goal in the high-scoring bot- \le.

still seems to be some doubt as to whether it is pronounced bomb or bum. so its up to Joe Louis, the “ " who was a rather lumber- ing pursuit ship in his last start, to settle the question when he meets Natie Brown in a IO-round gout in Kansas City next Wednes- ay.

It. will be 10 rounds of fighting. declares Billy McCarney, the crisp- haired manager of Brown. McCar- ney drums on the fact it will be a. fight, not an exhibition, and the only argument against that is the recollection the Louis-Bob Pastor bout also was billed as a fight.

McCamey is pretty well sold on the big Jewish boy who once went a total of 10 rounds with Louis— seven in a daze and three in a quandary. He thinks Natie can do it again.

“I don't hold Natie up as a knockout artist, but he's fast and clever, with plenty of courage,” McCarney said, indicating that if Louis has his teeth tuned Natie will play “Annie Laurie” on them without skipping a. beat.

Brown won‘t run, so Louis Won't need a compass to find him, Mc- Camey emphasized He believes Joe is liable to find Natie all over him.

“Natie went down in the first

round of their last fight, and was in a fog until the eighth,” the pilot explained. _ "He came out of it to win the eighth, ninth and tenth. l-le isn't afraid of Joe. \l-Ie'li stand up and figh ." s

Special Bill At The Forum For Today

The usual big Saturday special is on at the Forum today with two final games for titles being staged and the start of another with a special skate and what promises to be a rugged, fast exhibition game and a special skate being sand- wiched in between.

The day's program starts of! with the Prince Street and West Kent girls clashing in the sixth game of their series. The series was originally intended to be a five-game affair but when the teams were tied at the end of five today's ‘game was arranged and it is to be a battle to the finish.

The bantams take the stage next in their final game for the title with both teams being tied with a victory apiece. Then to wind up the afternoon skating patrons will have the privilege of attending a two-hour special skate.

The evening program starts ofl with two college teams battling it out, 5.D.U. meeting P. W.C. This game promises action galore. but the day winds up with the tid-bit of the program when Cross Roads and Alexandra meet in the first game for the Kelly and McInnls trophy. This is a game that prom- ises action plus. in fact the whole program is bound to be brim full of action.

Montague Driving Club Ice Races

Thursday afternoon saw a big enthusiastic crowd on the icetoser the first racing of the winter. The horsemen, with many of the lad- ies, were out. On account of the heavy snow on the ice the two previous races were postponed, and the horsemen did not look for the races ‘rhursdaymut with the short notice the local horses were on hand. Dr. Preston McIntyre. Geo. McIntyre, Joe MoGregor, Maynard McDonald and many other fol- lowers of the sport were on hand as usual. The next races will be Saturday.

Dan. Patchen 2.15 1-2 has re- turned from vacationing in the country and is looking and feeling just as good as when he tramped over Maritime tracks in the hey- day of youth. He has found a gum owner and good home with w. Chester S. MoLure, and is grateful for it. ..

Dan Patchen made the headlin- es first at the Toronto ice races in 1923-1924 when he won two races in easy style and took a record of 2.15 1-2. A few weeks later he won the 2.14 class in fast com- Dally. defeating among others the sensational Della Unko 2.03 1-2 at the International Ice Races, Wind- sor, Ont. His second heat in 2.14 1-4, was with one exception, the fastest heat in the world on ice that season. Brought to the Mari- times he proved to be a good race horse, winning a large percentage of his starts in hard fought con- tests. Those were the days of the three-in-five and Dari could bede- pended upon to race the last heat as good as the first. l-Ie is one of the kindest horses that ever lived.

Dr. HM. Parshall, famous train- er of Urbana, Ohio, has moved to Plnehurst. N. 0., where he will get his stable in shape for the coming season‘s campaign. One of them Jane Azofi’, 1.59 1-2, has recently been sold to Hedley T. Fulton of Upper Stewiacke. NS, but will re- ceive her training with Parshall, later on coining north to be in charge of Bill Cummings. Bill spent a couple of weeks in Ohio looking over horses and rumor hes it that another one has been bought but the name has not been given out.

At last a letter from our friend Professor S. A. Rockford, from his winter home. Shelly Bay. in sunny Bermuda, which gives an account of his trip and hardships endured and present activities. He writes: “Just a few lines to let you know how things are going at this Hea- ven on earth place where I am sojourning. Well, we had an aw- ful trip down. I never expected to reach land. nor did anyone else on board the schooner. If it were not for the rope lines run around the sides we would all have been wash- ed overboard. Waves were moun.

“We were 2'7 days on the trip. Among the casualties was Foxey Peter 2.13 1-4 and three otherhor- ses. We threw them overboard in the Gulf Stream.

“Beeton Grattan 2.10 1-4, (Frank Adams‘ horse) has rounded to and takes to this climate surprisingly well. I intend to hold him for me free-for-all early next month and believe I can win with him, al- though there are a lot of good horses here.

The cli- mate makes it possible to raise three crops of potatoes a year and all you have to do is to look out of the window and see the bananas growing. I have never worn a coat since I came here, just go around in my shirt-sleeves.

“I miss your paper with the ‘Back Stretch.‘ Will you please send me a few copies, as I know the boys will enjoy them as much as I do. When I am through here I intend to go to Goshen to spend a month with my friend Walter Cox, and then if God spares me I will be in Siimmerside Dominion Day when the bell rings, where I hope to greet all my old friends."

Horse owners would do well to make early application for eligi- bility certificates and find out just what classes their horses are elig- ible to. The change in the rules last season advanced horses very rapidly from the 2.20 class down. There was no change up to the 2.20. Race secretaries in making up their programs will have to take this factor into consideration, otherwise there may be a dearth of candidates for classes between 2.19 and 2.15.

A move is on foot to have one eligibility certificate issued that will cover all racing associations. We in the Maritimes do not suffer be- cause of rival associations, as we all belong to the National, but in the western United States there are three, and in Ontario two Canadian associations operating, with rules of eligibility at variance with the others.

Walter Goss’ unsuccessful foul shot in the last 30 seconds of play gave the Grads a 24-23 victory over their arch rivals the Navy in last night's City Basketball ‘fixiuri staged at the Y. gym.

1t was a typical Navy-Grad bat- tle with the issue always in doubt Grads forged into a three point lead at the end of the first session and at the start of the second had increased it to eight only to have the counter attacks of the losers tie it. up in the final seconds and set the stage for the Grads call- tain to give his team the win.
