It r Negotiations to have Sydney lay the second game of the Mari ime final series here tonight fell through, an official of the local Club told this writer last night and it appears now that the Royals will have to either make the trip to Cape Breton or forfeit their chance at the title and s. resulting pie/c in the Memorial Cup pie downs. And it is very doub fu whether Waiter Lawlorfls youthful club will be able to make that long trek The first reason that casts a dark outlook on the matter is the state of finances. ' O I O All season long the club has been operating on more or less of a shoe string. They have had only two home games during the season and attendances at each of them hasn't been anythin to go into hysterlcs about. Last n ght there was a slim 700 present and the cut the club would get from that after expen- ses, the M.A.H.A. Percent-age, etc" was taken out wou d go very little distance in taking the club to Syd- K16)’. I I U The trip if taken would mean that the team would be away four day5 which would mean in the vic- inity of $500. Where that is coming from ls what officials are tryl to figure out now and their out ook {was anything but rosy on the mat- er. Composed for the most part oi Prince of Wales students the matter of studies also enters the picture. It is again vcr doubtful if the players themse vcs would wailt to sacrifice that much time away from their w-ork and ijust how the col- lege professors would look on it is anolhBr matter that has to be gone into, I O l Matters however will be ironed out today and it may still be possi- ble that the Royals will make the trip. It is to be hoped that they can for although Sydney will have the advantage of home ice for the deciding encounter Royals support- ers are confident that their team possesses the ability to come through in the clutch I Matters certainly had a bright hue for the first twenty minutes of last night's encounterasthe Royals built up that big-looking 3-0 lead as they took the play nwa, from their opponents to earn n cflnite edge. But the visitors proved they were far from through in the last two periods when they staged their comeback to earn a. well-deserved draw and perhaps they might have ccme thlourh with a victory had it not been for some sensation- al work on the part of Ivo Cudmore who turned in another three-star performance in the Royals cage list, night. I O O Willie Bruins were ca italizinc on their chances it was t e direct opposite on the art of the Royals after their firs geriod scoring spree. They had c ances enough in the last two sessions to hold their margin but in close they either fumbled passes or showed the weakest kind‘ of‘ shooting. a Then again seven times during the game they caught the Sydney team shorthanded and only on one of these did they manage to click- you guessed it, it was in the first period, In fact Sydney took ad- vantage oi’ one of their penalties to score that important tying goal catcliin the Royals flat-footed as the loca s left themselves wide-open seeking to increase their slim one- goal lead. ‘ . . It wasn't that Sydney had any marked advantage in the last two periods. They had the Royals on the defensive all right but where they covered their checks like. blankets with their goal threaten- ed Ruyalswere _doing everything but the ri t thing when faced with like situa ions and in the end this led to their losing their lead. I I I But if they are able to make the trip don't by any means count the youngsters out. They are at their best when faced with what looks like big odds and if the second en- counter does materialize it won't be so awfully surprising if they should come through with what many may look upon as an unex- pected vlcwry. ‘ O Bill Cowley, Boston's play-milk ing centre, is still atop the Nation- al League scori race, official sta- tistics show and is chances of win- ning top honors for the second time in three years appears bright. may well take over the tog s t before the season closes un ey night. But the onus is strictly on them and not on Cowley. - I O Barring some sort of I airing miracle the fight is between these three. Lorne Olrr and Lynn Pot- rlck ere verv much in the picture but appear- to trail too for behind to make up the lost ground. Cow- ley won the race the year before last with 02 points.

Dick Bagnall and Gallant accounted for the other two counters. Mclilachern rangy, fast right winger of the visitors shot two of the Bruins‘ counters with Murray and Fitzgerald getting the others.

March l2 —iCP)—- Fleet Gflye’ Stewart of Toronto Maple Leafs was named tonight as winner of the Calder 'l‘ropny as the National Hockey Leagues out- standing Rookie of the year. Twenty-one of the 27 sport writ- ers in NHL. cities who participat- ed in the annual poll conducted by The Canadian Press gave the l9- year-old Stewart first place voles, four others placed him sewhd while only two failed to mention him iii their selections. Dynamic Glen l-lurmoll, who has sparked Montreal Canadians ul their lute-season drive for a, play- off spot, stood second in the poll with three JQSL-plilfifi votes, six seconds and iour thirds. Next came capable Don Galllnger of the Boston Bruins with two first-place ballots, five seconds and six thirds. Points were awarded on a 3-2-1 basis and the vote was "weighted" to give equal voting power to each N.l-l.L. city. Stewart, who is awaiting his call from the Royal Canadian Navy. has been an outstanding perform- er from the start of the current season. He led the League's goal- scorers early in the campaign and while he fell into a mid-season slump from which he has emerged in the last few games, his goal to- tal so far this season is 23 while he has 21 assists for a total of 44 points. He comes from the head of the Lraires. traditionally a hotbed of amateur hockey. Born in Fort William. 0nt.. he first came into hockey prominence in the neigih- boring citv of Port Arthur where he played junior hockey in 1940, his team being knocked out of the Dominion championship hunt by Kenora ‘Thistles, runners-up for the Memorial Cup that suson. when the Port Arthur juniors were eliminated Stewart was drafted for service with the city's senior team and took part in the Allan Cup finals against Montreal Royals. His work in that season attract- ed the attention of the Toronto Maple Leafs and their Fort William scout. George Walker. signed the brilliant young left wing who was brouglht to Toronto to play Junior hockey with the Marlboros and ac- quire polish. In the 1940-41 season Stewart starred with the Marlboro; in the Junior series of the Ontario Hock- ey Association ranking as thelead- ing goal getter in his league. l-lc continued with tile juniors inst season and then in January grad- uated to the ranks of the Marlboro seniors and when they were elim- inated from the O.H.A. race the Leafs sent him to Hershey Bears of the American Hockey league. Helcd Hershey into the league fin- als and then came to the Leafs in time to play ll minutes in the fi- nal game of the Stanley Cup finals between the Toronto team and De- troit Red Wings. ‘He is the only hockey player to have played in junior, senior, minor league pro. fessicilal and N.H.L. rinks in one season. The late Frank Calder, former President of the NHL. and donor of the Calder Trophy, suggested last December that participation in last season's play-offs should not. bar a player from consideration for the rookie award and a noth- tion to this effect was included in the ballot form distributed by The Canadian Press.
