He wouldn‘t give up till the final whistle had blown. There are toa fcw men of his calibre left, and the people of South End will Isong reâ€" m«nber him as a friend to all, and chap omn of the kids. It seems that Dr. GalHop wasn‘t the only guessing expert that made 2 very ktad blunder this year. All he did was to mako the simple little mistake of saying that Truman wasn‘t g:ing get in as President of the United | States. with all the silverware and nob:dy was going to have anything to say about it. Gn p@per tmrey were right, tut, unfortunately for the Porkie fans, the games aren‘t played on paper. The ‘tcam to beat‘ was beaten by the ‘outclassed‘ .Macmen. â€" The ~winners did it the hard way at that. They werd very soundly trcunced in the opening game by a 6Gâ€"1 count, but came bouncâ€" ing back â€"to take the noxt two games of the best of three series, 3â€"0 and then the! final 4â€"2. A far worse mistake was made by the ‘gucisperts‘ who said that the Porkies were going to waltz away Th« big reason for:the upset .win was the work of Lyl Porter in the McIntyre cage. The veteran backstop returned to the nc‘ for the first time this season and the Macmen ssemed ‘to play an inspited, steady brand of Adult Entcrtainment ‘by W6ug Mcleilan "I Wouldn‘t Be In Your Shoes" Corne Tcday and Tomorrow Two Ace Hits ~"Dynamite" Starting Saturday hold up under the berrage that was t"rown at him.

Then with their beloved Porkies on the short side of a 4â€"2 count, and the minutes fast running out in tho third period, teh Pork‘:e fans began praying for the miracle that had upâ€" set them last year. You will remcmber that when the same two clubs met in thoe finals last year, the South Enders wcre ahead by two goals in theâ€"final game , and only three minâ€" utes ‘left to play, when the roof fell in on them. ‘The most loyal Porkie Tans couldn‘t help but think that the same thing was going to happen in reverse this year. They knew it was so> much to hopc for but that didn‘t stop them from dreaming. MciIntyre didn‘t let it happen though as they played it tight and held their allâ€"imâ€" portant lead. It was a good series with : tho .scrappiest, neverâ€"sayâ€"die team winning. It will be an even g reater series when the Macmen meet the winner of the Fallsâ€"Hollinger games. ; Series Sidelights: Orvy Kelly, rugged Foto Nite Tonight $500 IL you reszll the first meeting of lke Pork‘ es and McIntyre this year, you will that Jack â€"Ladds ‘sco:c1 the first Porkie goal of the (bsesson snd it was against his mates ‘lot last year the Macmen.

It was on tlre fluky side but they all count in the end. He let go with a seemingâ€" lyâ€"easy shot from the blueline which evaded Brownlee‘s grasp and bulged the twins behind hiin. Everything was a‘most perfect now far as Falls was ccncerned. They had come from and at last knotted the score. The Holl nger cause looked even worse a few minutes laterâ€" when Brownlee was struck on the head and had to retire for repairs. It was at first feared that he would be finished for the evening but he returned to the game a few minutes later. Shortly after this came the winning .goal.

With Porâ€" ter nct playing unti the last two playâ€" cff games,. the fans had almost forâ€" gotter how hs used to delay tha game to tighten h‘s skates when the going got tough. He may ~have been out al!l but Porter hadn‘t forgotten about it, as ha brought many chuckles firom the fans, stopping both games as scon as the Macmen ran into a ccuple of penalties, and a ‘brief rest was in ordce. . . . . . . The main réason for the complete reversal of form of the Mazmen was the switchâ€" inz of EFddie Lamarche from cenutre back to tha blueline. The defence was the weakcost pcint in the first gcame, so the McIntyre board of straâ€" :gy decided that Lamarche was the answer, and they were quite right. They didn‘t miss him on the forward i ns as they used Frank Innarelii in his plast, and he is a good man to hove arcund. . . . ... The tkost playâ€" the icc however in all three sgames was Roger Mincault. He was in on 5 of the gpals scored and waÂ¥; a very decided threat every time h« was out there. Even when the Macmen were beaten so badly in the op.n:imy gamt, Mineault was in thera al‘ the time giving all he had. . . . .

We make no excuses however, and . state* simply that we need more experinnce on skiâ€" ing on iey slopes and narrow trails. Canditions for the meet were entire‘y different than on what the boys had been pract sinz on and to what they were used to. Being two hundred miles south made quite a différence in the snow conditions which may be simply descrired as and iev. It was about thirtyâ€"four in Temiskamâ€" mg on Friaay with the snow mciting to the pcint of running. Freez ng during the night and all;of the next day, as you can see made the slopes rather icy. This along with tha fact that the downhill trail was for the major porticn only arm‘s width wide and did nct enable the boys to check, proved ts be quite different from what ®ii boys: ahd been used to These factors along with not having a jump show only to well the need of outside ‘compstition and cond‘tions. If these could be made available the of Timmins skiing would riso considâ€" erably. The. meet was definitely a success css as Timmins was concerned, deâ€" spite the fact that we did not win. The sportsmanship and the friendlinâ€" ess of the meet was a lesson in itself. Gcodfellowship prevailed throughout the meet and emphasized the fact that skiing is one of the cleanest and best sports of the world. Getting kack to ‘the mect itself the thres cars arrived .in Temiskaming without sericus mishap other than two flat tires. The day being fairly warm and the sun coming out. half â€"way through tho reserve made the tnp very pleasant one. ifi Aess 4 Suppex that night might be decsribâ€" ced ss typical French.

Friday night the boys spent their time between the show and the Billiard rzom or the crescent amusement hall. At eleven or there abouts all were in bed and some time later(w won‘t say hew much later) most managed to get to sleep. 3 Breakfast was at sevenâ€"thirty the next morning and we all got away to the hills by nine.
