r. THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1928 DRAW 4-4--OSHAWA ELIMINATES KINGSTON Well. it looks as if Bowmanville Oshawa juniors will get to- some fine evening, and toss one of the government minted coins with the head of His Majesty, ng George the fifth, inscribed reon, and finally decide who will be the local group representa- tives in: the O.H.A. play offs, Af- ter a slam-hang battle at Bradley's Soo Biysiam, in which flying fists, kates,' and woodchopper tactics red prominently, they again emerged doadlocked at 4-4. Seven times have these two aggregations waged bitter warfare with hockey accoutrements, and the ultimate winner has not yet appeared in the offing, If Peterboro or Whit- by had not withdrawn from 'the roup, one of those teams might ve taken a fall out of one of the present contestants unexpec- tedly, and a result perhaps reach- ed One more game remains to be played in the group play-offs, which will take place en Bowman- ville ice Wednesday night, A rec- ord crowd from this district wiil be sure to attend the final nweet- fing of these evenly matched teams, All the goals wer not earned in last night's tussle, hoth Leveque and James startling their ardent supporters by letting, not soft, but none-too-hard shots slip past, Rundle's goal in the dying minutes of the first frame looked lke a gift, as he was uncovered at the blue line, but McMullen's Jane from the hack of the net gave veque no chance to save, Hooper moored in the first peried on his own rebound, on which Leveque was slow in clearing, and shortly after a hard shot from Kowden's stick, took a nasty hop, and carom- ed into the Bowmanville net. These two goals were the only doubtful ones, however, The game grew wilder and woolller from the first bell, and in the final frame, after Harrington had boarded Rundle, Osborne took it to heart and en- deavoured to make Harrington look like Dempsey after a few minutes spent with Tunney, After they were separated, sticks loom- ed more conspicuously in the com- bat, and Whitton took a count of two, after being butt-ended by Hooper. Art Black received a hard shot on his knee, which neec- essitated his, departure Tor the remainder of 'the contest. The first period score was 8-2. for the Bowmanville broncho bus- ters, and the second period ter- minated at 4-4, Black and Whitton doing the good work for the home- sters, The third period did not ER Oshawa Comservative Association Any Conservatives who bave not already received cards for the social evening and dance to be held in the Winter Gardens op Feb. 17, may obtain same from Karn's Drug Store, Vickery snd Ashton Barber Shop, Mrs. Clayton Downey, 114 St. East, Phone 98w. yg Jowng Conservatives in- es A NI II PSN ER WEY Are Still on E ven Terms Whitton was - the Juistanding for the Shamrock outfit, do- prodigious amount of back- checking, and g. The er-size was all over the ice, and his frequent disappearances through the legs of the Bowman- ville defence, made & hit with the crowd, Rowden did a lot of good work, but his Babe Dye shot was not as much in evidence as in his accustomed position, patrel- ing the right boards. Osborne was the most effective layer for the visitors, more par- fcularly in the first two periods, when every rush he made was a real threat. He drew first blood for his team on a beautiful rush, and a back-hand shot to even up the score in the first frame, He was the best player on the ice last night, and accounted for two counters, McMullen as usual, did a lot of work, and Rundle and Hooper also were effective, Lit- tle, Black and Harrington were the pick of the green clad squad, with the omnipresent Whitton buzzing around in the forefront, First Period Black tested James early with 2 hard drive. Arundell on a nice rush, passed to Little, who took it in close, and made no mistake. Osborne and McMullen did some nice rushing, and finally Osborne scored on a solo. The fast scor- ing had the fans bewildered, goals having heen a comparative rarity between these two teams. Arundell looked good in the initial set-to. On his own rehound, Hooper put the Bowmanvillites in front, Os- borne continued his sensational skirmishes, but his passes were not well taken care of by his team mates, After Rowden had made a great rush, Oshorne dumped him, and was riled off, Rowden was not to be denied and immediately uf- ter, put a hopper past James} which made it 2-2. The Shamrocks were showing their best combination ef- forts of the year at this juncture. Whitton was beginning his rabbhit. like tacties, and kept the visitors on edge. Black charged into the net, and was temporarily disabled but continued. As the Grand High Gong Ringer lifted his arm to pull the rope, McMullen dashed back of the net and passed to Rundle uncovered. in front of the nets, and he took it easy and made it -2. Second Period The Shamrocks' checking did not look so good at, the first of this period. but both teams travel- led at a fast clip, and both net- minders were kept jumping. Har- rington and Osborne made clever rushes from the defence, although Harrington was prone to hang on to the puck too long, going in on the opposing. rearguard. Black came through with the equalizer when he followed up fast on a re- bound from "Doc's" stick. Har- rington was banished for spilling Rundle, and with one man short, The Bowmanville gang came fast, and Osborne scored his second, apd his team's fourth. Whitton was sent to the penalty box for bumping. Candler was aggressive and made 8 couple of good rushes pear the end of the period. Osborne was hurt in a crash against the boards at the Oshawa end, but after a few momrenis re- spite, continued but was ao*'ceably not as effective as formerly. The ice became slightly sticky, but did not slow up the play appreciably. Whitton took the puck up the left boards and beat James with a hard ankle high corner drive, quart- | Bern 's Arable Saeed hat orway ! of speed stars captured the pulk of laurels when Ivar d skated off with the 5,000 metre race after t Evenson had tied with Clas Thunberg, the famous Finnish campion, in the 500 metre event in record-breakt: fe time. The most sensational heat of the 500 metre race brought Thunberg and together, For 400 metres Larsen set a terrific pace and red a likely winner, but rg uncorked a terrific clos- ing burst and passed the Norwegian in the stretch, All told, Norway took siz out of the twelve point-scorlag places in the two opening events, while the United States and Jinland each gathered three. But while Finland's stars gave thelr Norwegian rivals & keen tussle in each race, the American contingent was able to land no better than third in either feature, Gorman Withdraws Charley Gorman, the Canadian ace, was shut out in the 500 metres after being thrown off his stride by his opponents' fall, but his pro- test was denied, Because of this fact, Gorman withdrew from the 5,000 metres event, Ross Robinson, Gorman's team-mate, was shut out in the longer race, O'Neill Farrell of Chicago, the chief American threat in the 500 metre race, won in the last Olympic by Charles Jewtraw, of Lake Pla- cid, finished in a tie for third place and with hetter racing luck might have done even better. As it was Farrell's time of 43 6-10 seconds was only two-tenths of a second behind the record shatter- ing pace of te two winners, Even- sen and Thunberg, who were clock- ed in 48 4-10, breaking Jewtraw's old record by six-tenths of a sec- ond, Holds World's Record The world's record for the dis- ance is now held by Roald Lar- sen, with a credited mark of 43 1-10 second, made at Davos, Switzerland, last week, Farrell was unable to score in the B5,000-metre race afterward, hut two Americans placed when Irving Jatfee, of New York, fin- ished fourth, and Valentine Bialis, the team captain, sixth, While a blinding snow storm swept the racing course, the skaters skated their battle against time, Farrell, a heavy favorite in the shorter race among the Americans, was handicapped by lack of such tast pacing as Thunberg had, when he was paired for his heat with Larsen, one of the Norwegian aces. The American, drawn against Ber- til Backman, of Finland, took the lead at the start and was forced to make his own pace all the way, Murphy In this race Eddie Murphy, of Cicago, finished eighth, Jaffee eleventh and Bialis sixteent. Far- rell and Murphy both were far down the list in the 5,000-metre event. The summary of the two races, 500 metres--Tie for first be- tween Bernt Evenson, Norway, and Clas Tunberg, Finland, each 43 4-10 seconds; third, tie among O'Neil Farre}l, United States; Roald Larsen, Norway, and Jasko Friman, Finland, each 43 6-10 seconds; sixth, Hakon Pedersen, Norway, 43 8-10 seconds. 5,000 metres--Won by Ivar Bal- lengrud, Norway, 8 minutes 50 5- 10 seconds; second, Julius Skutt- psb, Finland, 8.59 1-10; third, Bernt Evenson, Norway, 9.01 1-10; fourth, Irving Jaffee, United States, 9.01 3-10; fifth, Armand Carlsen, 9.01 5-10; sixt, Valentine Bialis, United States, 9.06 3-10. that proved the final marker of crowd.

This was par- ticularly true of the final period, when nine penalties were given, and all three goals were tallied when the opposition was short- handed, In fact, both of the Var- sity goals were tallied when the Green Shirts were one man down Whitby Shoves H a Team Out of Running Peterboro, Ont, Feb, 13.--Whitby eliminated Havelock from the O.H.A. intermediate race here t when they held the railroaders to a 2 to 2 tie on local ice.

At no time during the game were the Motor City players in any great danger of defeat, and even the desperate last period struggle of the tri color did not deter them from continuing their goal-getting orgy. For the three periods Oshawa held the upper hand, aided a great deal by stellar work of Smith mm the nets, but carried to victory mainly through spectacular back checking by the forwards. Master- ful defence work by Chartrand and Johnston and deadly shooting by all the players, Oshawa richly de- served their victory for they were on the play a vastly better team, and one deserving of the cham- plonship of the eastern section of the O.H A, To Chartrand, Johnstor!, Rowden and Avery must go the bulk of the credit for the victory, for they played sensational hockey most of the way. Smith was a marvel in the nets, even after he had been laid low by a terrific shot which he stopped on the head, and which, it was stated, broke a bone, Osh- awa were doubly strong in that their subs were as good as the regulars, Queen's faded badly at times. Quinn seemed to have one of his off nights, while only Reid and Lindsay . played in .the form they displayed all season. Britton and Boland were unable to do much with the Oshawa defence, and Relist was out played by his check. Oshawa served notice that they were out to win, for in less than four minutes after the start, Row- den skirted the side and drove a long shot that beat Quinn. A min- ute later Reid went down, and also drove a long shot, the drive being an easy one on which Smith look- ed bad, for the remainder of the period it was a heavy checking affair, with both teams battling through only to be turned back at the nets. Four minutes before the period ended Joyce drove a shot through a raft of players cluttered Whitby Next Quinn, the Queen' oe umn, Wd A to save, A minute later sent in a ter. rific shot that caught the Oshawa goaler flush on the side of the head and he went down for the count. He revived after three minutes, and resumed his place in the mets, Chartrand gave his team a greater lead with a privy ol second period down the side and backnanded a shot, The Oshawa goaler misjudged the shot, and ducked his head, the puck going aver him into the nets, It was a particularly soft and un. usual kind of goal, Six minutes later Johnston got the counter back when he took a pretty pass from Avery, and sent in a berutiful shot to land another goal. Queen's realized that they faced oblivion at the start of the third period, and worked harder than ever for goals, but Smith was un. beatable, In seven minutes Lowe went in with Chartrand, beat the defence and potted a pretty count. er, Queen's sent all their players to the forward line, but it was hope. less, and Houck broke from centre, with no one in front of him, It was an easy matter to skate in and beat Quinn, For the remainder of the game Oshawa more than held their own with the tri-color, The game was fairly clean, though in the first period Chart. rand and Britton went to the ice in a fist fight and were given ten minute penalties. The teams were: Oshawa--Goal, Smith; Chartrand, Johnston; Avery; wings, Rowden, subs, Joyce, Lowe. Queen's--Goal, Quinn; defence, Britton,, Boland; centre, Lindsay; wings, Reist, Reid; subs, Mac: Pherson, Boucher, Referee--Ernie Collett, Toronto, The summary: 1st period--Oshawa, Rowden, 3.4; Queen's, Reid, 1.06; Oshawa, Chartrand, 10.00; Oshawa, Joyce 46. 2nd period--Queen's, ,Retd, 3.85; Oshawa, Johnston, 6.00, 8rd period--Oshawa, Lowe 7.25; Oshawa, Houck, 7.50, defence, centre, Houck; WAIT THREE HOURS FOR HEIR-APPARENT London, Eng., Feb. 13.--Jack Hood, welterweight champion of England, defeated Lan Johnson, Negro Manchester boxer, on points in a 16-round contest at the Black- triarg Club tonight.
