~~ ‘The Guardian, Charlottetown, Fri, Feb. 27, 1958. 7 ‘SPORTS FRONT By PTUS CALLAGHAN | S iL g Hi ui ritlers them operated under the guidance of the Maritime Amateur Hockey Association, takes place at Civic Stadium, Summerside -tonight with the Aces playing host to the Charlottetown Royals. This is the first of a best-of-seven set and folks are expecting a real bangup battle tonight when the lid is pried off the series. As the Island representative, we can assure all hockey fans that referees will be given the full protection of the MAHA in this series. Any player who does any‘hing toward pushing, shov- ing, hitting, etc. an official will be suspended immediately. Both teams are well aware of this and have expressed the opinion that their players will conduct themselves properly all through the series. We sincercly hope so, because it will make for far More cordial relations all around. 4 ACES WILL ICE the same team that disposed of Navy Tars in the C and D house league semi-finals but Royals will be a combination of Royals, Navy and Garrison Juniors. These players all signed MAHA cards to play with the Intermediate Royals and tonight will mark the first appearance of the team as a unit. For the sake of specta‘ors, who naturally are going to be a bit confused with the Charlottetown lineup for awhile, we are giving it to you today. ' Goal—Roper: defeneg_Jimmy Duffy, Junior MacLeod, Art Perry, Kip Ready, Erland Wood; forwards—Buck Whitlock, Lorne Hennessey, Orin Carver, Allie , Skip Carver, Angie Carroll, Willie Dunn, Billy Hughes and Wally Shepherd. It's a fairly sturdy looking list of hockey- players and one that should bo-her the westerners who will be going all out to grab tonight’s. opener. However, these same Aces are no pushovers. “4 They've proved that all season and they are looking better now than at any time this year. They'll be tough, make no mistake about that. ae Charlottetown fans get two in this series here next Arena on Tuesday and HUNTERS CORNER New President Will Add’ Starch To Ass'n.

On several occasions | I have found where a fox had tried to belly up on a sleeping covey without success. The marks, were plain on the snow... the creeper never: got within springing distance. Sometimes, but not too often, Brer Fox gets a break when a covey allows it- self to be buried in snow and their body scent gives their posi- tion away if reynard happens to pass close by. \DEATH FROM THE AIR It’s death from the air that often strikes without warning. A raven can nose-dive almost as swiftly as a hawk or owl. If a pair ‘of ravens, and they generally hunt-in pairs, catch a Hun in the open that has been weakened from lack of food the bird has about one chance in 10 of escap- ing. Ravens take trout while they are crossing a Siallow creek bar or moving up a by-pass when the water is low. I stumbled upon this quite by accident. I wondered why a pair uf ravens were always hanging around a spruce bordered by-pass during a period of severe winter weather until I found the dis- coloured marks on the snow where trout had been eaten. Later I disturbed them in the act of eating a trout. I didn't begrudge them their feed, for trout seldom" move freely during the win‘er. | Ravens are opportunists...they | have to be in order to get enourh food to keop up body heat during | a hard winter. Great Blue Herons | (Cranes) and King Fishers are | the predators that cut into our brook trout : - the runner-up position. Mrs. Perry, entering the day's play wih only one victory against two defeats, downed Bessie Prowe cf Charlottetown 13-4, Mrs. | Smith 13-8 and Mrs. Hayes 10-3 to end with a 4-2 mark. PROVIDES THRILLS While other rinks were winn- jing the championships the bon- spiel’s biggest thrills were being provided by Evelyn Cudmore’s | Two Montague rinks, those by At MacDonald and G. Wicholson were tied for first place last night as two rounds were completed‘in the Canadian Legion bonspiel being held at the Montague Curling Rink.

The Parkdale Royals ‘and don’t let the name fool you; the roster is crammed with the very best talent in Charlottetown) and the Summerside Aces, preity much as they have been all! sea- | son, will play the first game of | a best four out of seven series for the Island MAHA champion- ship at Civic Stadium tonig‘t. It would take a real rainbow chas- er to rate the Aces as anything but underdogs in this series, but there is nothing in the MAHA rules that sdys an underdog can’t snarl and bite his way to the top and get “champion"’ en- graved on his collar. 4 If the Aces are at their best, the series should be an _interest- ing one. Reeves, Gallant and Williams were all casualiies of the second last game played at Civic Stadium, but Reeves and Williams played in the final en- counter, and report has it that Creek Bulldogs, like all canines of that breed, never let go when they get a good grip. They chewed the Lot 16 Rangers into submission, and have now beat- en Cape Traverse at North River by a close 6-5 score. Though the Cape crew may také them at Bedeque, the Bulldogs seem hard to subdue in their own ken- nels, and they have the advan- tage of the odd game against the Rovers as they had against the Rangers. Lot 16, who won a collection of trophies last spring, may he facing a silverware famine in 1959. They still have a chance for South Sflore honors, but they dropped out of the Prince County Rural and Commercial league with an unbeaten record, and Tignish finally copped the Civie Stadium trophy. Town Taxi of Tignish beat Summerside 10-6. Scorers for Tignish were Harper 3, Gavin 2, L. Richard 2, Gaudet, Fennes- sey, McAlduff. Town Taxi scor- ers, Phillips 3, Perry, Poirier, Ulric is ready too. Let’s hope all three will be back at par to-| night. Then there is the mental haz-| ard too. If any of the Aces de-| cide to blow their tops ard get tagged with game suspensions | you can pretty well write them) off as serious contenders from that time on. Ofcourse, this could happen to some of ~ Parkdale boys too, but as we) see it, they could drop a player | or two with less damage to. their cause tham could the Aces. They have depth. Tonight’s immatch at Civic Stadium should break all attendance records for this sea- son. It looks as if those Nine Mile McLeod.
