1.1.;.a... er....i; With A Moncton Here Tonight

It will be Big Four hockey It the Forum again tonight at 8.30 when the P. E. ISIBDdETa and Monc- -ton Hawks tangle there in a sche- duled Maritime Senior Hockey League tilt.

Improving Is the season pro- gresses. the Gordon Drilion- coached Hawks will be coming here in the wake of their 3-2 vic- tory over Saint John Beavers last night and will be gunning for their firm victory over the Islanders. a win that could put them within three points of the third place Beavers.

But it will be I tough row to hoe for the Moncton men. Al- though they have decisioned the Beavers twice and have won one and tied one with Halifax. the Hawks have yet to defeat the Is- landers in four meetings this season.

It will be a determined band of Islanders pucksters who will be hitting the ice tonight too. Still smariing from their loss at Saint

John last Saturday night. their second defeat this scason, the Chamberlain-coached crew will

not be taking any chances of further lowering their almost per- fect winning average in the sche- dule to date.

The rcsiilt should be a fast. open brand of hockey that will produce picniy of action from the opening whistle to the closing one.

chandler Re-leases Names of Players In Baseball Draft

By Harold Harrison

CINCINNATI. Nov. 6 -(AP) - The men who know baseball play- ers best-the scouts and the farm organization executives-ivere giv- en plenty of work today.

Baseball Commissioner A. B. Chandler released 76 pages of names-players who will be sub- ject to baseballs major league draft at a meeting here Nov. 16.

From that list. the scouts and heads of the major league club farm system will cull the players they'd like to grab off in the draft.

Players drafted cost the major leaguers from 310.000 for players taken from Class AAA loops down to 82000 for those. it any. taken from Class "D" leagues.

The draft arrangement is this:

No more than one player on the regular draft list can be taken

from any one league club. How- ever. there is another group of players. those placed on an un-

restricted list by the minor league clubs and bonus players who havent been recalled by the maj- ors and any or all of them can be drafted.

The draft selections will start with Pittsburgh. last. place finish- er in the National League. getting first choice and the last place Philadelphia Athletics of the American League getting the sec- ond choice. From there the major league moguls will proceed up- ward through the standings and then repeat the process until everyone has passed.

Last year 21 players were draft- ed. Another draft-into the armed services-may increase the total this year. it is believed that some major league clubs mav dip more heavily info the list of older. ex- perienced players as "protection" against loss of young players to the forces.

General opinion seemed to be that Montreni of the Internation- al League. a Brooklyn farm club. may be nicked early in the sel- ections.

The Royals have at least four players generally considered likely

draft: choices-Jhut only one of them can be taken.

They are pitcher Omar Lown. with a 13-9 record last year:

pitcher Carroll Bensingcr with a 6-2 record: shortstop Russell Rose with a .235 batting average and 51 runs batted in. and third baseman an-cl.shortsiop Donald 1-ioak wlihn .281 hitting record nnd 56 runs batted in.

North Sydney Vics Down Miners 4-1

NORTH SYDNEY. -N.S. Nov. 6- (CP) - North Sydney Victories. wallowing in the cellar of the Cape Breton Senior Hockey League for more than a week. downed Glace Bay Miners 4-1 here tonight to edge within one point of second- place Miners.

The smallest crowd of the season saw Vics come to life with two goals before the two-minute mark of the second period after a score- less opening period. Glace Bay tallied their only goal less than four minutes later and North Sydney added two more before the frame ended to conclude the scor- ing for the night.

The roughest game of the sea- son was studded with 20 penalties. including a major and a miscon- duct. Glace Bay being awarded 13 of them.

Forward Vic Dcmairco paced the winners with two goals and an assist, after Laurie Peterson stari- cd the ball rolling with the first two counters.

The visitois only goal was scol- Ni by Ted Watson. while i)Oif1 trains had a man in the penalty bms

Almond-Mitchell Fight Tonight

VANCOUVER. Nov. 6 - (C?) -The ring-wise were cautious to- night.

Vancouver's Frankie Almond. Canadian featherweight champion. meets Toron-to's Dave Miichcll. Thursday night but it looked like even money after early workouts. The title is not at stake.

The experts watched each figh- ter put in several stiff rounds, but none would pick a winner.

"It's going to be quite a go." was the only comment.

Both fighters have been putting in hard training sesions since Mitchell arrived from the east Saturday.

Genial. 21-year-old doesn't talk much.

Mitchell. also 21. is talkative. The large-eyed featherweight from the stable of McBeigh-Allen lnc.. de- clared himself the lcontrolled kill- cr type” when he met sports writ- ers.

"That is." he explained, "ill kill a rival if I see he's set up. but McBcigh's been teaching all of us to box and look for openings rather than step out slugging."

Manitoba-born Mitchell started boxing for Toronto promoters when he was 16. He's had about 30 professional bouts and his 1950 record is 10 bouts and eight wins by knockouts.

Almond has been a professional for only two years. but has fought 14 -pro battles without a loss.

For the second time in a week the Saint John Beavers have tak-

en the measure of the otherwise undefeated Islanders to prove themselves the other big team in the Maritime senior Hockey Lea- gue to date, Taking a 2-1 verdict from the Chamberlain coached Is- landers here last Wednesday. the Beavers came back again on Sat- urday at Saint John to again hold the locals to one goal while they potted three themselves. 0 O O

Youthful Beaver goalie Dennis Brodcur was again the big stumbling block for sharp-shoot- ing islanders forwards when he cziriie up with dazzling displays of nctiending to rob them of scoring attempts right and left. In the opening frame alone. the nigh in- pregniiible Brodeur turned aside 14 shots and handled ll. much larger total on the game. Taking the fancy of the crowd here last Wed- nesday. the artful Dennis kicked out a. total of 37 siulei-s and gave the impression of having an in- visible stone wall built around his cage.

- u . Still shorwiiig superior skill on the offensive. with fast passing

plays and tireless. effective back- checking tactics. the Islanders ap- pear to be stalemated by a close checking Beavers aggregation who are stressing defensive play and making the most of fast. breaking attacks when the opportunity arises. The issue alone seems to rest in the inability of the Island- ers to dent: the armor of the sen- sational Brodeur. If they can over- come this factor. then watch out for another sustained winning streak for the Islanders. . o .

It appears that penalties again played a prominent role in Satur- day's tussle at Saint John with islanders collecting eight and Beavers seven for a total of fif- teen. including four -majors-and a match misconduct. Three disputed goals were also a feature of the evening and referees were ap- parently -under fire from all angles.

But the big feature of th: crime was the fact that the Dril- lon-conclicd Hawks proved once more in Maritime fandom that they are by no means out of the Blg Four race. Starting out badly with eight consecutive losses be- fore they tasted victory.

All over the Maritime: writers were tagging them "the winlcss Hawks” but now they have outgrown that unhappy title and have beaten every team in the league except I!- ianders in their battle for re- cognition in the league. They have a lot of points to make'up yet before they are anywhere near on an even footing with the rest of the leazue. but don't underestimate them. they are coming. .

Moncton Hawks Post Third Victory, Edging Saint John Beavers 3-2

MONCTON. .B.. Nov. 8 - (CP) -Moncton Ha 'ks posted their third win the Maritime Senior Hockey League tonight at the ex- pense of Saint John Beavers. scar.- ing a 3-2 win a a close-checking game. It was Hawks second win over the Beavers and with the ex- ception of the close score was al- most a duplicate of their first triumph, when they checked the Beavers closely and capitalized on the breaks.

Stellar neiminding by little Dennic Brodeur in the Saint John cage saved the Beavers from a worse defeat. The former Mon- treal Junior was sensational. espe- cially in the final period when Hawks subjected him to I heavy barrage of rubber but were ableio score only once. He handled 39 shots to Colvin's 23.

Hawks came from behind in the first period to tie the score at 1-1. Beavers again struck first in the second frame but Hawks came back with the equalizer before the period ended.

Dali Barkwell. top marksman for the Hawks fired the winning goal at 2.38 of the third period. with Imonfi getting the assist on a pretty end-to-end passing play.

Cooch Les Ramsay yanked Bro- deur with two minutes of play remaining. and for a time it ap- peared that the extra man ad- vantage would pay off, but Hawks iced the puck several times and finally on a breakway forced a face off in the Saint John end and Brodc-ur returned to the ice.

Several times in the final period Hawk players were in on Bro- deur but he rose to the occasion. robbing Barkweil and Demchuk on what appeared to be sure goals.

Defencemen provided the fire- power for the first two goals. Mudie opened the scoring for the Beavers with Brennan and Platz drawing the assists. Delmonte Oibehcd for Hawks with Dunville assisting.

Nicolle put Beavers out front again in the second with Whitlock and Mclntyre providing the assists. Dcmchuk knotted the count at 2-2 with Denny and Delmonie setting up the play.

The game was a hard-hitting of- fair. especially in the first period, but eight penalties. two of them to Moncton kept tempers from gei- ting outrof hand. All the penalties were minor sentences.

Sport Echoes From

Prince county

We were listening to a. very in- teresting little quiz program last Friday evening and must congrat- ulate its sponsors. M.F. Schurmaii. Ltd. It has interest appeal for all types of listeners. We trust those in charge will not think ill of us if we point out that one of the an- swers given as correct was, in our opinion, inaccurate. The question: "What. according to an article in the Montreal Standard. is Canada's most progressive town?" The an- swer: "Summerside." The Mont- real Standard declared that sum- merside was ”Canadn's richest town." "Most progressive" and "rioti- cst" (in its narrowest sense) are not syncnymous. The Standards pronouncement was probably based on 8. report of income tax returns which gave summerside the distinc- tion of highest per capita payment:

Please, summerside residents, do not get cut the old shot-gun and start looking for us before you have read the rest of what we have to say. We are not a native son of Summerside. but we have been for some time now a satisfied and con- tented adopted son of the town. Believe us, if anyone slandered the town of cur adoption. we would be among the first to tell hifn what we thought of him (from a safe distance. of course). We do think that Summerside is a progressive little town. and that it has gained some fame outside its borders for its progressive spirit. its enterpris- ing merchants are second to nont- its hospital facilities will soon be among the best. It has an active Board of Trade -which is constantly making itself felt in the interests of greater business eficiency. its Town Council carried through an ambitious program of street con- struction and improvement this summer and deserves the com- mendation it is getting for this work.

.. . V

In the realm of sports and rec- reation (This is a sports cclumn ai- ter all. you see). we have not ex- actly drawn a blank. We have a fine golf course. up-to-date bowling alleys and one of the most modern curling rinks in Canada. You wi.i perhaps be struck with the fact that all of these establishments ca- ter. if ncf. exclusively, then very largely. to the adult section of our population, Indeed. the adults rirc very well taken care of. But what about Summersidets program for youth? There is the Achilles heel of the tcwn's recreational effort. For the benefit of you blighters who were busy pulling the curls of the girl sitting ahead of you instead of listening to the teacher, Heaven pity her, relating the stories of Greek mythology. Achilles was g bin towering brute who regularly wiped up the countryside with all his op- ponents. but if one of them should happen, (no pun intended), to take I sock at his heel. hitting below the belt being standard procedure in those days. then the only thing that could possibly save him was direct: intervention by Minerva. or the bell.

Yes. folks. we are sub-standard in the matter of providing recreational facilities for our youth. we are fortunate in having service clubs in the town that are alive to the problems of youth activities. and are doing I fine job with the facilities available. But the facilities Ire woe- fully inadeqiiate. we don't have I gymnasium or basketball court. We don't have in hockey and skating rink. (not really). we have very little, in fact, to fill our boya' and girls' leisure hours with worthwhile recreational activity during the winter months.

Former Maior League Pitching Star Passes

err. PAUL. Minn.. um.

(A?)-Grover Cleveland Alexand- er. a fabulous majorleagie pitcher in his day. died Saturday of a heart ailment. Death came to the 63-year-old baseball immortal in the rented room he occupied in a private home here. He had been living of late on a S150-a-qncmth baseball pension.
