WEIR + 8 Cumberland St., Phone 1268 CITY LEAGUE NOCKEY First: Game—The FORUM— Tonight—8.30 St. Dunstan’s Univ. vs. Legionaires The Series USUAL ADMISSION By DAVE McINTOSH HALIFAX, March 19 — (CP) — A third-period rally cut to ribbons by three costly penalties, Halifax St. Mary’s faltered before Mon- treal Junior Canadiens 7-5 tonight to lapse two games behind in their best-of-five Memorial Cup series. Montreal won the first game here Monday 5-4 in overtime and the third game will be played in Mon- treal Friday. Outclassed by a sharper band of hockey players for two periods and behind 7-2 at the start of the third, St. Mary's cut loose with a ‘sud- den, vicious attack that netted tliree goals in 12 minutes. But the onslaught evaporated just as sud- denly when Bob Reardon, Hal Con- rad and Bingo Ernst drew succes- sive banishments for elbowing and tripping. Canadiens were again in full control by the end of the game, watched by 6,674 fans. In the first two laps St. Mary’s had to get by a couple of tough lines —Morenz-Trudel-Fryday and New- ton-Laplante-Denny — before they could get near the defence. That was bad enough but when they ran into Joe Lepine and Ernie Roche at the blue-line it- was too much Lepine, one of the best juniors ever to show on Halifax ice, rolled up St. Mary’s Defeated 7-5 As Canadiens Take Second Game Halifax rushes on his broad back and then led his own in the oppos- ite direction. Penalties were costly for Canad- iens, too. Halifax scored four of their five goals when Montreal was short-handed — three of them when Lepine was off. In fact, each time the big defenceman took a penalty —he had three — it was a signal for St. Mary's to score. 5 SUMMARY First Period 1—Halifax, Conrad 7,32 2—Montreal, LeBlane (Nevton) 8- 40 3—Montreal, Trudel (Fryday) 11.19 4—Montreal, Morenz 13.51 5—Montreal, Lepine 15.11 6—Montreal, Denny 15.29 Penalties --Roche (2), Hirschfeld.

On Friday, March 14 the an- nual Kensington ‘High School sports went off with a bang in spite of the very inclement weather and considering the con- dition of the ice. Approximately four hundred kiddies and parents attended the function thus making a very en- joyable and interesting evening. The program started. at seven o'clock sharp. with a_ hockey match between Norman MacDon- ald’'s Summerside Bantams and the Kensington Bantay The and resulted in a 4-4"tie with everybody harpy. Fred Sample refereed to the entire satisfac- tion of all concerned. Following the game a pair of clowns appeared, one. on ice skates and the other on roller skates, in the persons of Mr. Blair Heeschen and Mr. Blwood Dunning, suitably attired for the occasion. They immediately began to unload their old bag of tricks to the unlimited levity of the school kiddies and spectators. They per- formed throughout most of the evening until they retired to their dressing room to reappear with a real treat for the spec- tators in a presentation of local ice follies. With the rink completely black- ed out they executed their fancy skating numbers with great dex- terity to the accompaniment of the rink-a-phone, They appeared in red skating suits and each memer had eight flashlight bulbs powered by con- cealed batteries, wired about their person, waich made a strik- ing contrast on the red uniforms in the blacked-out rink, Bach in- tricate number drew rounds of applause and the thanks of the ice sports committee is here ex- tended to these gentlemen who gave freely of their time and tal- ents in helping to make the evening a_ success. The rink was donated to the school for the cvening, free of heels when the winners blazed home the tying counters and then struck like lightning for the winner just as the fans were con- tent to settle down to _ close- checking, sudden death play. &, . * * Making their last start of the season Prince of Wales Welshmen leave for Wolfville, N. 3. today and tomorrow night tackle Fred Kelly's Acadia Axemen in an ex- hibition encounter that will also probably mark the Nova Scotia University team’s last appearance this Sea‘en. . oe @ There is a lot of keen rivalry hetween Acadia and Prince of Wales and interest among the local student body is at a high pitch over the outcome of the game, a game that Welshmen will try and enter on the credtt side of their hockey ledger.

McLeod's Bombers will, by virtue of their victory, play off with the King Square Bantams of Char- lottetown for the Island title. In the Pee-Wee division Alan Stewart's Cookies were forced to win two games to cop the local title. In the first encounter they defeat- ed the Maroons coached by Lowell Tues 1-0. Ronnie MacArthur, the tear®@aptain got the only score on a break away from a scramble in centre ice. In the second game the Cookies triumphed over Gordie MacKay’s Maroons, by the score of 2-0, McArthur bagging the first from a short forward pass by Ken- neth Perry, and Leroy Clow, the smallest Pee-Wee of them all, scor- ing the second, taking a pass from MacArthur. The Maroon team kept up a sustained attack in the final Session hemming the Cookies in be- thind their blue line, but failed to dent the meshes behind Lefurgey. Lioydie Palmer was particularly aggressive for the losers during this siege. Vince Harris, defenceman of D. R, Morrison's Flyers,. winners in the paperweight division, shot the only goal of the ten year olders, carrying in from the blue line in the first period to sag the draperies on a rising shot. In the second sés- sion the Flyers svarmed all over Robert Murphy’s Do-Dads but the work of Claude Gaudet in the Do- Dad's cage held them to _ their single tally. All games were refereed by Kins- man Harry Dickie, and Kinsman Cleve Whalen was master of cere- monies.—S. f Navy Clinch First Place In Hoop League | The Navy basketkall team swept into first place last wight by over- powering their rivals from St. Dun- stan’s to the tune of 53-34. The Tars played a slow breaking game and in the first half had the Saints at their mercy on good passing plays, winding up the half with a 30-11 lead. In the second half, the game tightencd up a bit as Saint Dunstans started a rally cn fast breaks, but the Navy stemmed the tide and scoring in the half was even, 23-23. Smith, with 20 points, led the Navy sharpshooters while Bradley, with 14, was tops for the losers, Second Game Prince of Wales came from be- hind in the last half of their game to down the last place Army squad 67-51. This game was by far Army’s best showing of the year and with Clarke and MacLean shooting ac- curately had P.W.O. baffled with a@ 33-29 lead at half time. In the second canto the Army attack be- came spasmodic and with MacLen- nan running wild, P.W.C. overtook the lead finishing by outscoring Army 38-18, MacLennan was high man for the winning Odllegians, netting 38 points while MacLean, playing his best game ever, shot 19 points from all angles to lead the Army cause.

With their backs to the wall as a result of West Kent’s win in the opening game the winners started right out on a five man offensive and in the space of 49 seconds had shot into a 1-0 lead as . McKenzie hammered the disc into the net on a smart bit of passing with Hen- nessey and Burke, Set back momentarily West, Kent came hurtling back to test the Q.S.S. goalie but it was no go; penalties to Queen Square twice during the period gave the losers a man power: advantage but again the Q.S.S. goalie held the fort. Time for the period was turning out when the winners shot goal num- ber two, McDonald slapping the rubber home as Gillis passed right across the goalmouth to him. Sparkling savesby therival goal- jes featured the opening two min- utes of the middle session as the teams went at it hammer = and tongs; again it was asee-saw battle right up to the thirteen minute mark with both squads missing chances galore in the even battling but West Kent finally beat the Q. S.S. goalie as Bill Bevins skated into the clear and went right in to sraw the netminder and deposit the rubber into the empty cage. For over ten minutes of the final session both goalies came through with sensational saves as first one and then the other team would break right in on top of them. Burke in the winners nets had just robbed a West Kent player of a goal when Queen Square = struck for their third counter Hennessey picking up Burke’s pass inside the defending zone and blazing an) angle drive from the left boards be- | hind Howatt, Less than three min- utes later the winners were back | for the clincher as McCallum fed} McDonald a pass at the edge of the | crease with the latter deflecting the puck into the open corner of the cage. | Lineups: Queen Square—Goal, fence, Ready, Martin, Bruce; for- wards, McKenzie, Hennessey, Burke, McCallum, McDonald, Gillis, Leonard.
