; finalGame0f B Series Tonight At North River

The Island intermediate "B" champiiunshlp will be decided at Norlli Riicr Rink tonight when the Milton Hornets ' ll the Albany.St Pats squarc at , p . game of their bestof-five series.

The last game at North River between these teams drew the largest gate of the year and with the title on the line tonight's crowd should be even larger.

The Hornets viill be playing on their home ice but it has been prov-p ed before that in this series that Is; no advantage whatever. The Horn-. ets won both of their victories nnl Albany home grounds and the St Pats did the same trick at North River.

Both Milton and Albany are well balanced outfits and evenly mat- ched so that it will not be until the last. bell has sounded that a winner will be declared.

At a meeting of the Queens County Fish and Game Assoc. held last night a resolution was passed to the effect that legislation prohib- iting the shooting of cranes be lift- ed as a result of considerable proof that they have a big influence on the trout population.

A variety of subjects were dis- cussed including the injurious ef- fects of wasting gravel on the Valleyfield stream and the pros and cons of shooting from a boat at Pisquid Pond.

The minutes of the February meeting were read as well as those of the Southern Kings County branch and the newly formed Souris branch.

Three interesting films on fish- ing were also shown.

Season's Biggest Crowd

Parlrdale'I never-any-die Flyars on the ver a of elimination from the Island for League playoffs. bounced right back into the pic- ture to tie the series up at 2-1 with a 4-1 victory over the Basilica Youth Club at the Sports Arena last night before the big est crowd- in the near vicinity o 1500 - to watch a hockey game here this year.

While tho Flyers won by a com- fortable margin of 3 goals it was a far closer game than that. The teams battled through a scoreless first period and went 19 minutes Ind arseconds of the stop before Parkdale finally broke the Ice as Hurry connected from close In.

The outli club tied It up at 1-1 on Waly Shepherd's effort near the mid-point of the third but the Flyera tossed in three goals in the last five minutes of play. The one that counted the most was that scored by Skip Carver at 17.01. Willie Dunn scored the third mi an

ed out the scoring on a breakaway. ROPER SENSATIONAL

While he didn't have an exception- ally large number of shots to stop in turning aside. 22. at least half of those could be described as ter- rific and a number of that half were spectacular. It looked like Wally Shepherd was carrying a sure goal on his stick near the 15 minute mark of the first period. But Roper got his foot on the 10- foot shot as it was heading for the corner and in the second and third Roper came up with three great saves off Spy Ready's drives.

In the other end of the rink Don Simmonds came up with a sterl- ing performance also. He didn't have a chance on the three that got by and made a couple of spect- acular stops off Allie Carver. Penalties were the exception rather than the rule as the teams stuck mostly to playing hockey. In all Brian Maccallum and Don Wbelan passed around seven with the Flyers getting five of them. Included were a pair of m8.l0I'3 dished out to Frank Shepherd of B. Y. C. and Dempse Gregory of Parkdale in the first period for a minor skirmish.

Play was at top speed through- out but both teams came up with a lot of sharp defensive work with Stu MacLure playing a standout game for the youth club.
