Detroit And Montreal In Final Chapter Of Thriller Tonight DETROIT, April 4—(AP)—De- ltroit Red Wings and Montreal Canadlens pack their hope: for iurvival in hockey’: Stanley Cup Jlayoff: into a single wallop here morrow night when they meet or the seventh and deciding time In their first-round series. Eac hclub has won three games tn a nip-and-tuck set that already al lasted two weeks. Winner of ithe climactic Tuesday struggle hioves into the cup finals against t Toronto Maple Leaf outfit that \as won the prized trophy three time: during the last four years. Toronto clinched its berth in the Trials by whipping Boston Bruins st week and is standing around siting to take on the Detroit- ontreal winner. Few of the experts rate this red- ot series other than a toss-up at I current stage. Montreal, all but booted out of the playoffs here last Thursday when Detroit won 3-1 to take "a threeto-two edge in games, came back Saturday on its home ice to deadlock the series again, winning 4 by the sa'me score. Now the Red Wings, who led the league almost all season to win the N.H.L. championship, are the team on the spot as third-place Montreal glrds for an upset. Detroit hopes hinge closely around the scoring efforts of right-winger Gordon Howe, 20-year- old goal-getting star of the first six games, who _now has seven goals for the series and is within five of the playoff record of 12 set by Montreal's Maurice (Rocket) Richard in I945. Montreal again will bank heavily on a newly-organiz d forward uiiit of Richard, Gerry lamondon and Joe Carveth, which produced all three goals in the sixth game at Montreal.

SHARLOTTETUWN “ A hard fighting band of Chill‘- lotlelown Victorias lost out on the Hlrlti-me Juvenile Championship at Sydney Forum last night when the s1. John's C.Y.0. Juveniles of Glace Bry eaked out. a close 3-2 victory over iiie local squad in what WIIS reported as a closely con- tested battle all the way and was any-body's contest right lo the final whistle. - . . . The ViCs have conic ll long way since the first of the season when they were banded together in ord- er to make a. fourth tcam in the City Juvenile League from what was believed to be the chaff after the cream of the crop had been picked. The chaff, however, turned out to be the refined product. and they swept through a tough series to capture the City title and the Percy Turner Trophy from an ag- gressive Abbie squad and then con- tinued on to vrrap up the Provinc- ial iltlc from the Sumiinfrside Sheeii-Mclniiis Juveniles to add the Ed. Garnliumi silverware to their collection which went with the title. e . o _ Not content with local victories. however. the smart little band of liockeylsts. guided by the capable coaching of Art Perry. took on the Chatham Juvenile Legionaires to capture the N.B.-P.E.I. crown. by sivamping the N. B. titlists by a 17-1 count. Since then Vida had been cooling their heels and suffer- ing from inactivity. with the ex- ception of a few practice sessions, while the N.S. winners were being decided. until they boarded a spec- ial plane for Sydney yesterday to hold a. rendezvous with the now new champions. O O I t Despite llie fact that they lost out on last night's close decision, the boys put on a showing that was a credit to them arid deserve every bouquet due thern and this column fakes this opportunity of extending them its congratulations fc-r a “job well done."
