But the fans‘ vision of the Welshmen repeating their upset victory of last season was shattered in the middle canto u the winners outscored their

"opponents t-i to take a. 5-3 lead. The margin was sufficient. Saints ran their lead to 7-3 in the first fifteen minutes of the third ses- sion before Welshman gathered their forces to snarp in the final goal of the game in the last. 55 seconds of play.

lat in between the scoring ef- forts the two teams prodluccd some of the best hockey of the season with the scoring punch of the _wlnners showing up like s sore thumb. Again the Welshman lost half a dozen chances by poor marksmanship and when they got on the target they found a stumb- ling block in “Shorty” McKi-nnon. Saints’ goalie who particularly in the last period robbed the losers ef st_.least three goals with spec-

tacular saves. ,

Saints’ punch line of McDonald. lfahar and McIsaac again played s prominent part in their team's win.

Again the game reverted to a see-saw battle with both squads missing great chances butaSainrs ling attack paid off as Rodin-s slipped s pass across to lledlwell first inside bhe blue line and the latter-q screened shot beat Oud- lmre cleanly. Both goalies were coming through with great selves as the period neared its end and in the final three minutes Mc- lbssc and Douglas were banished for roughing in a flareup that for s minute threatened to elnbroil both teams but calmed down with the offenders getting minor sent- Iices. Action slowed down as the tennis played rive a side wih Prince of Wales getting the only shot on goal while the culprits finished out their sentences. get- tiw bsck into the fray seconds More the rest period.

For the first eight minutes of the middle canto Welshmenb de- fence combinations broke up Saints attacks regularly with stiff body checks and pokechecks, with A.J. ltflcAdam of the winners pin-- forming in alike role for the Saints. Welshmen missed s. great chance as McKinnon robbedl-‘tich- srd from point blank range and suddenly the roof fell in on the losers.

Joe Mahar, taking a pass from Cart McDonald at the line, raced in to drill the equalizer behind Oudrmore and a minute and thir- teen seconds later- the duo repeat- ed their act, MclDonald poke- ohecklng the disc from an oppos- ing player to whip a pass over to the uncovered Mahar and again the red lig-ht blinked to give the Saint-s the lead for the first time. Welshman took but 62 seconds to tie it up as Duffy backhandled the disc in on a pass from. Dalziel as Downs of the Welshman was serv- ing a penalty, but. before the per- iod had ended the winners ‘tame through with two additional coun- ters. At 13:05 of the period Joe Mahar stole the puck from a Welslhmen player. roundfli the F!" on the blind sid-e to slide it into ‘the cage. Seventy-five seconds later McDonald made it 5-3 as he slapped in Mclsaac’: pass while standing at the edge of the crease to give Saints a two goal lead.

Still showing plenty of fire Prince of Wales again took over the offensive but couldn't make the grade, McKinnon making a great save on one attempt and another time the puck hitting the post with the goalie beaten. all one way.

McDonald of Saints was still

' serving a penalty from the second

period when the third session ‘sot underway but Prince of W es couldn't get organized, but at. full strength McKinnon stood in the breach again as he blocked Doug- las’ drive from ten feet out. and seconds later McKenzie missedthe open corner by inches.

saints Offensive Pays Off

But the Saints offensive again began to take its toll. l Several times their four and five man attacks were thrown bank but s McDonald to Mahar play finally clicked as the letters sliding shot carmned in off Cudmords skate to make i-t 0-2. Saints were car- rying moct of the offensive st this stage with Welshmen's drives sl- ways proving dangerous, but it was the Saints who again made the redl light flash as Houde, with a beautiful angle shot best Cud- more for the final S.

THE GUARDIAN, CHARLOTTETOWN

Juvenile hockeyists hold fonth at the Forum tonight with Reece Abbies and P. W. C. clashing in s tilt that can have a lot of bearing on both squads’ standing in the schedule, a fact that assures an- other evening of the fast, action- crammed hockey entertainment the minor leaguers have handed out in their two league struggles to date.

f ll- l» Os

Anbies, beaten by the league- ‘ "j Kinsmen in their initial tilt, will be facing a squad that forced the Kinsmen to come from behind to eann a tie, and on paper it appears that the Collegians would rule slight favorites at Same time. But that is not the case with the fans who watched both teams in action.

Il- i II’ '0'

Said fans, and they are the handful who have been supporting the youngsters, feel that the Alb" bies, in their juvenile team have prospective league champions once they get a couple of more games under their belts and are looking forward to the team giving the undoubtedly strong College outfit quite a run for it in tonight's en- colmter.

-l- + t» -i-

10i. should be quite a battle all the way. No punches will be pull- ed, for the juveniles play the game for all it is worth every minute the encounter is in pro- gress and many times pull off smart plays that prove plainly that the juvenile league will pro- duce stars some future day pro- viding the kids receive the in- centive, and that incentive can come by the fans attending in much larger numbers than has been the case. So it might not be a bad ld-ea to’ give the juveniles a trial for tonighfs game--this wri-ter feels certain they will ac- quit themselves by the perfonn- ance they will hand out.

t t O O Basketball fans will also have another innings at Prince of

Wales Auditorium when Navy and Saints clash in a. single encounter of the City League. Ray's and Princeof Wales were scheduled to hook up in the second game but the match has been cancelled diue to the Collegian: being unable to band ibgether a squad for the encounter. _ O ~0- + 1|-

Ths Navy-Saints game should be well worth witnessing. Both tied with Prince of Wales with a victory apiece behind the front.- running Millionaires who have won three in s row. tonight's win- ners will go into undisputed sec- ond place in the standing, and the respective squads, with that goal ahead of them. should play it wide open all the way.

1- + 0- 4 Navy, due to their recent win

of close-in saves just previous ‘w the counter.

Monday night's opening games in the elimination to decide _t-lle two rinks that will represent the Charlottetown Curling Club irlthe provincial competition for the Consols Trophy and a right to represent the province in the Do- minion Curling Tankard at Cal- gary, Alta, in March, provided more than the usual number of upsets and ‘as a result this seas- on's competition promises to be more closely watched than any in previous years.

Ranking rinks fell’ to the way- side like tenpins as little thought of rinks came through with fine curling efforts that had a. packed gallery—the largest, it is said, ever to watch opening night's play- pulllng strongly for the underdogs to come through. All the matches proved to be close with the results usually being determined on the last end and if the opening night's ivinnelrs can continue their fine efforts the dopesi/ers are going to take a licking before the thirteen kinks have been pared down to the final two.
