Behind To Tie Chicago

Black Hawks 3-All

MONTREAL. Oct. 12 - (CP) - Chicago Black Hawks and Mont- real Canadiens opened their Na- tional Hockey League 1950-51 sea- son here tonight with a 3-8 dead- lock before a crowd of 14,124 - largest for any opening game in Canadiens' history.

Most of the excitement was crowded into the final period when Canadiens made up a deficit of two goals with less than seven minutes to go.

All Montreal goals came while the Hawks were penalized. Only one of the Hawks! three came when Canadiens were playing short.

Roy Conacher. with his 198th goal of,his N. H. L. career, Bill

Mosienko and Gus Bodnar were the scorers for the Hawks. Elmer Lach. Ken Mosdell and Floyd

Curry counted for Canadiens.

The Hawks scored early while Canadiens were short defenceman Tom Johnson. The goal went to Conacher unassisted when he rap- ped in his own rebound.

Canadiens got it back less than four minutes later while Hawksl Jack Stewart and Vic Stasiuk were sitting out penalties. Lach scored on passes from Doug Har- vey and Glen Harmon.

The second period was marked by sloppy playing by both teams. Vern Kaiser of Canadiens lost control of the puck in his own area and the Hawks went into action. Mos- ienko scoring on assists from Bill Gadsby and Doug Bentley.

Chicago moved two up at 7:15 of the final period on Bodnar's sharp shot after Stasiuk's long wing shot was deflected off-goalie Gerry McNeil's skate.

Montreal's persistent efforts fin- ally paid off. with the Hawks shorthandcd. Mosdcll f'red from close in to get tho ogapn Canuck goal while Ern-ic Qickens was off. Before be came back, Stewart and Maurice Richard were chased for ioughing and in that interval Curry tied the count with an angle shot from Baldy MacKay's perfect pass.

The Hawk line of Bentley, Mosi- enko and Babando gave Canadiens most trouble, while the Montreal- ers. never better than a tie, had to keep up an effort at the offen- sive most of the way.

Chadwick disallowed one Mont- real goal in the tumultuous third period.

Activities in the local realm of football have been comparatively quiet during the most part of this week after a heavy program of rugby encounters during the lat- ter part of last week and holiday week-end, But things are starting to shape up again as the week-end approaches in an indication of re- newed activities.

0 I I

Queen Square school and the second Prince of Wales College string will clash at Victoria Park cn Saturday afternoon in thisvsec- and exhibition encounter of the season. The two squads battled it out last week in their first meet- ing. in which they exhibited som- top notch form. P.W.C, winning 6-0. The same two teams are ex- pected to come up with some fast. close action again on Saturday.

U C O

The Saint Dunstan's varsity squad, who surprised the most ar- dent rugby followers with their outstanding playing here against U. N. B. on Monday, will leave sait- urday mornlng icr Sackvllle. N.B where they will meet Mount AT- lison there in the afternoon. The meeting will be the first between the two squads in their three-con nered, home and home series with U.N.B. in N.B.-P.E.I. intercol- bglate rugby championship cem- petition.

C I O

The Saints are presently tied with U. N. B, for the scri-as leader- ship with one win each, although the Sainh hold the edge on aver- age, having won their only game played to date. while U. N. B. have won cne and lost one, with two games to go. 11. N. B. shaded Mount Allison at Sackville last Saturday by a 7-5 count. but took a bad trounclng from the Saints here on Mcnday by a lopsided score of 18-2. This of course leaves Mount A in the cellar at the start oi tomor- row's game by it played one-lost one summary.

0 0

These facts, however. will have little bearing on the Saturday clash when the two squads meet for the first time this season. Al- though present scries perform- ance makes the Saints the team to beat, local fans knowfrom past experience that e Mounties are always atough aggregation to can- tend with and will be out there fighting whether they are winning or losing. However, we naturally hope that the Saints will be vic- torious. but it is going to be a real battle if they do.

Gordon is probably one of the most competent and experienced rugby referees in the Maritlmes. and has been the leading instructor In two rug-by schools for referees heldf both here andatsaint John N.

Officials of the Abegweit Club also announced yesterday. that the Truro Bearcats rugby thirteen will play an exhibition game here next Wednesday against the Charlotte- town Abbie squad. The game will be the first of an exhibition home

and home series between the two clubs. The Bearcats are reputed to be a strong. hard-

hlttlng aggregation and plenty of rugged ball is expected at this meeting. The Bearcats downed the Glace Bay Caledonia No. 11 Cluo by a 3-2 count earlier this week. The Abbles have had two games under their belts this season against senior Saints. but lost the

With the City. and the Island in general, becoming more hockey conscious day by day as Coach Chamberlain rounds off the rough edges of his Club for the opening of the "Big Four" at Halifax on Saturday night, many people have been asking how the boys are getting on. where are they staying etc. Well the answer to the first question is. in this humble writer's opinion "that they are getting along fine. and are looking more like a really potent club in the Maritime circuit daily." 0 O D

As to where they are billeted. that is not hard in answer either As far as most of the local boys are concerned. they are residing at their respective homes in the City. Thesometenor twclvc "Im- ports" are also being well cared for. They are nll quartered at Mrs. Guy Kennedy's "Motel" Cabins at wlnsloe. about four miles from the City. The cabins are neat and well heated with all modern conveniences. and according to the boys themselves "are very well sailsfled with their accom- modations and are happy about the whole set,-up.".
