His team strengthened its hold on league leadership while Cres- cents missed falling into the cir- cult cellar only because Saint John Beavers took a 5-3 defeat from Moncton Hawks. Goalie MacDonald turned in the second shutout of the Big Four schedule this season, his brother Hughie having racked up the first one for Hawks when they blanked Beavers 5-0 earlier in the season. Coach Kuhn came up with a new line. Dalton Barkwell. Cliff Roach and Lou Medynski. The unit figured in five Truro tallies. crescents lost the game in the met period when Truro rattled home four goals. For the first part of the second period Halifax thoueli its only hockey of the night. but still couldn't break ihroilllll Sonny MacDonald in the Truro not. Bcarcnts came back with two more bcfore that period closed. and then added another pair in the last. frame to bring their total to eight. Tile contest was rough and wide open. Players traded elbows. high- riicks. heavy checks and boarding throughout the inst two periods. in the second period wingers Bill Thompson of Crescents and Ed Wilson of Truro, took time out for a fislic display. both drawing ma- jors. There were several other flare-ups. but no punching mater- iaiizul. Bearcais played one of their best games of the season. They were in there fighting all the time, and skated the Halifax outfit into the ice throughout most of the game. Against the persistent ‘I‘ruro back-checking.

Sault Ste Marie. in the third round of s scheduled 10- round bout at the Montreal Sport Local hockey fans will have to possess their souls in patience. The exhibition game betwe nNavy and Saints originally so eduled for this evening hasbeen post- poned until ‘Thursday. One of the reasons is that the college has a previously arranged program of the "Fine Arts" variety scheduled. 1- 1- 1- 1- The‘ postponement, however, will give both teams an opportunitrto get in an extra practice or two. Last evening Coach Walter Law- lor of the Navy put his charges through a stifl’ workout and over a beautiful sheet of ice some of the boys showed plenty of speed and neat stick-handling. 1- 1- + Word from the college is that the team will have a practice ses- sion this afternoon at four o'clock. Coach Jackie Kane is expected to use as many team aspirants as possible in the exhibition encoun- ter. It will enable him to better size up the material on hand for defence of the Maritime intercol- legiate title which the Red and White won last year. 1- 1- 1- 1v’ Tile big question mark in sports these days appears to be the dis- mal showing of the Montreal Can- adiens. The‘ team which has swept to three straight league titles and two Stanley Cup wins. and has set many a record in its path is really in a. slump. 1' 1- 1- 1- Many are wondering if ihc Can- adiens lack scoring punch. They are the lowest scoring team in the league at this stage with a total of 43 goals in 1B games. They are in fourth place in the standings. three points ahead of the Rang- ers. It is worth recalling a pre- season statement by Frank Bou- cher, coach of the New York Ran- gers. Boucher said: "The Canad- iens won't finish in the first four." 1' 1' 1- 1» Some see Canadians‘ trouble th's year resulting from the rebuilding program pat into force by such teams as "Detroit. Toronto and Boston over the past two years. Others cite statistics to show ihats while lacking in points for vic- tories the number of goals scored by them compares favorably over a similar period of last season. 1- 1- A look at individual records also is interesting. Maurice Richard. the great right winger. has scored 10 goals in the present season. or approximately 25.7 of the grand total. Richard's punch line mates Elmer. Loch and Toe Blake have scored 14 times with Lach having eight goals and Blake six. The punch line's output is about 57.5 percent of the w ole total. 1- 1- 1- Injuries have not helped the Canucks either. Ken Mosdell. Murph Chamberlain and Jimmy Peters last season formed one of the best lines on the team. This year. Mosdell was injured in u softball game and is out until the first of the year. Chamberlain broke his leg in a game at Detroit. 1- 1- . is?» riioiii iiu Club's gymnasium, 32 years ago tonight. . Warnl Friends F or dOutdoor Men l ! worm.

N.B., Dec. 1-Monc- ton Hawks kept one point behind lcalzue-ieodlns Truro Bearcats to- night in the Maritime Senior Hollkey League by defeating Saint John Beavers 5-3 in the fastest game of the season on local ice. Hawks’ win over Beavers and Bearcats’ 8-0 triumph over Hall- fax Crescents drew Moncton three points ahead of the Haligonians who had been threatening to move up from third place and overtake 185i Year's Maritime champions. Coach Jackie Keating iced a Vastly lmllrovcd Beaver aggregat- 1011 101‘ tonight's encounter and although they were decisively out- scored ihey provided stiff opposit- ion, for the fast-skating Hawks. The Moncton squad acked the major share of their o ensive in- to the first period, while both teams maintained a blistering pace but Hawks succeeded in outscoring their opponents 4-1. The only two penalties of the game were handed out in the period. one to McGibbon of Beavers and the other to Jodoin of the locals. Hawks slackened the pressure in the second frame and concentrat- ed on holding their three-goal lean against the repeated Beaver on- slaught. The tactics nearly back-fired a.; midway through the period Vic Jackson raced in for a long shot on Hawks‘ goal. It. trickled through l-lughie MacDonald's pads. A min- ute later Jackson again started a scoring play and set up the puck for Gauthier, who made the count 4-3. Both teams went all-out in the third period. Beavers battled des- perately for the tying goal. Hawks pressllld‘ (‘fllllllly as ilarri to ‘n- creasl: their slinl margin. Both goalies starred as rum- paging forwards swept in to the goal mouth only to be robbed by sensational net tending. and as the tempo of play increased so did the bpdy-checking. Only cas- ualty in the rugged going was Hawks‘ playing coach Les Ram- say. who was put out of action by a heavy check from big Ed lvfc- Gibbon. Buck Whitlock. Hawks‘ ace sniper. provided the last tally of the some at 10:17 when he raced in on the Beaver citadel and net- Lted a pass from linemate George Bell. The winning goal in the first. period. also scored by Whit- lock, made the elusive little cen- treman the scoring star of the game. Other Hawk snipers were new- comers Frank Imonti. playing his second game on Moncton ice. Paul Gagnon. and Mike Demchuk. For savers Lynch, Jackson and Gau- thier were the scorers.

Sport Echoes from Prince County p some of our Summerslde hockey Players have been toying with the idea of entering a team in the Charlottetown City Lvugue, but g; far as we know, no definite decision has been made about the matter. The chief objection seems to bl the uncertainty of our winter weather which might shut of! automobile travel at Vcry short notice. and going to Charlottetown by train would be a bit" more exi- pcnsl-ve than the receipts 0f the adventure would probably justify. Of course, another winter like the last two. or is it three, would render it quite possible to carry on in such a league.
