Having made a splendid showing during the past two seasons. in which they were tlic Maritime In- tercollegiate champions in 1946-47 and the N.B.-P.E ‘f. intercollegiate champions in 15147-118. to enter into pliiy this year as the defending champions, tlicy had a stroke of had luck when they lost the tem- porary services of three of their regular squad in the persons of Cart McDonald. Mike llennessey and Jimmy Ayers on the eve of their opening competition against St. fliomas in the first section of Intercollegiate play. - . - o Making the best of the situation. however. the depleted S1111’. team entered into ilie competition against Si. Thomas nt Chathmn. NB. in the first gninc of the home and home series ilicre last Tuesday night, where they lost out by a score of 8 to 5. after putting up a determined fight which saw them hold a 4-2 advantage early in the second period. only to lose out to a hard fighting bancl of St. Thcvrnas pucksters in the final frame. o - o . Taking to the ice here on Thurs- day night, with still high hopes of turning back the New Brunswick- ers despite their three-goal ad- vantage bv trying for a couple of quick goals to put things on more even terms. they saw their effort boomerang when early in the first period the St. Thomas crew bang- ed in two fast goals to make things even tougher. - a Despite the unfavourable odds. the S.D.U. boys still continued to fight on, and before (he period ended managed to end up with a 2-2 draw by the end of the period. only to lose ground again in the second canto when their opponents outshot them 2-1 to hold a 4-3 ad- advantage at the end of that time. . - - . The situation at this point was enough to dishearten the best of teams but not the Saints-who came driving back in the final canto to Outscore St. Thomas 3-1 to take the game by a 6-5 count. and come within an ace of getting the two other counters they needed to deadlock the series. when they con- tinued to swarm around the oppos- ing goal in the final minutes of play. O O O O Although the Saints are out of It now. and will have to bide their time for another year to get a crack at an Intercollegiate title, there certainly is one thing that should be said before closing about the wearers of red and white~they went into the fray as champions and they bowed out as such. O O. Abegweit baskeflball officials en- nounced yesterday that due to the fact that the Summerside RCA!‘ hoopsters are flying to Harmon Field. Newfoundland, for an ex- hibition game there on the week- end of February 25th., the double- header game in Island Physical Fitness competition scheduled for Saturday, February 26th. will be moved ahead to Wednesday. Feb. 23rd, and the game between P.W. C. and Ray's Millionaires scheduled for that date will be played on February 20th. I O O O It kind of looks like this column erred slightly in yesterday's issue when it stated that the Charlotte- town Abegweit Hockey squad would likely make a better account of themselves in their final game of the home and home series with the Ramblers at Amherst on Thursday night than they did against them here on Wednesday. Compared with the 17-6 walloping they received there Thursday night, their 4-2 de- feat here Wednesday becomes al- most unimportant. Losing the round by a total of 2i goals to eight, the Abbies are certainly going to pull up their socks if they expect to beat out the strong Amherst squad in the forthcoming playoff series. “manor-emf Antoine Bolliard oHPn-i: who died In the early 10th century hld o personal library of more than 000.000 books. _________________ VICTORIA RIIIK HOCKEY TONIGHT Augustine Cove Bulldogs Vs.

Although the Q.S.S. youngsters didn't fare out so well in their hockey tussle against the P.W.C. Juveniles. who downed them by a score of B-l, the gamey, smooth playing little pucksters neverthe- less put up a really smart: battle against their lieavicr, more cx- perienced opponents, and at, times. particularly in the last lialf of the final period, really gave the Col- legians their hands full in keeping them at bay. . The game was a wide-open, clean- ly played affair with not one pen- willy handed out during the entire game, and produced scme really smart plays which resulted in some well earned goals. Moreside and Jardine were the top goal getters for the Cclleglans. shooting a brace apiece, while A. Champion. A. Mdlalluni, R. Champ- ion. and Stewart garnered one each. N. MacMillan accounted for the lone Q.S.S. tally. Oflg of the outstanding perform- ers on the Q.S.S. lineup was goalie T.

FEBRUARY 12, Fish and Game Conservation Committee, ap- pointed by the Canadian Associ- The report of the ation of Tourist and Publicity Bureaus, was handed to me a short time ago. At the annual meeting of the Canadian Tourist Associat- ion in i941 a special committee was appointed to look into the whole question re: economic value of hunting and fishing in Canada and more specifically their in- structions were: "to study and re- port on the present situation re- izarding the wildlife resources of the Dominion. the attitude of Gov- ernments. and ivhat is heliig done to maintain wildlife in Canada." - . ~ Among otlicr things the com- mittee hnd this to say in regard to hunting and fishing: ". . It is generally recognized that hunt- ing and fishing are highly lin- portant factors in attracting visit- ors to this country. lt is also gen- erally conceded that sportsmen spend more per capitn than a1- most. any other class of traveller. . - e Commenting on the deterioration of our wildlife the committee had this to .\:\_\'Z “various factors con- iribiitt- to tlii- (lctcriorniiuii of the \\IILIIII(‘ population. ‘Flic most iin- poriuiit are --- forest firrs, adverse weather conditions, disease cycles, predators and increased pressure of hunters and anglers. It is ilic considcrcd judgement of the com- mittee however, that ilie major cause of this deterioration is the illcgnl mid wanton destruction of fish and game by residents of Canada." - - The committee also went on rc- cord in the following comment: “Based on investigations ills com- mittee cannot ascribe to the opinion strongly lit-id in some quarters ilat visiting sportsmen from outs dc Canada are re- sponsible for serious depletion of this country's flsli and game. Un- fortunately n few isolated cases have received over-emphasised pub- licity which Ins tended to create an crrorcoiis impression on the public mind." - - o There are many u-np. in nil Prflbability- will not agree with the findings of the special mm. mittee appointed by the Canadian Association of 'I‘ourlst and Publicity Bureau.
