(HE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, APRIL 16, 1928 EASON OP ENS SATURDAY RANGERS LIFT STANLEY CUP -- SOCCER $ New Yorkers Win Deciding "Game and Take Trop Rangers By 210 1 Defeat the Maroons Who Were Fav- orites to Win Series from Champions of American Section Montreal, April 15.--The Stan- Jey Cup, that old and battered piece of silverware emblematic of the professional hockey chamvion- ship of the world, has gone to the United States for the second time in its long and colorful history. Seattle won the trophy in 1917, but the following year it returned to Canada, and had been held here un- til last night, when the New York Rangers scored a 2 to 1 victory over the Montreal Maroons in the fifth and deciding game of the 1928 world's series. Thus the New Yorkers, only in the second year of their existence as a team, have climbed the heights to capture the highest honors that hockeydom has to offer. The Ranger victory was some measure of revenge for their veter- an manager, Lester Patriok. Two years ago, Patrick, then mentor of the Victoria Cougars, champions of the now-defunct Western League, led his team East in quest of a world's title. Opposing the Cougars were the Montreal Ma- roons, then only in the second year of their existence. The result of that series is now history. The Maroons were easy victors, winning three games out of four. Result is an Upset This year, however, Iatrick's battling Rangers put tha skids un- der a powerful Maroon team. which after scoring a decisive 2 to 0 vie- tory in the first game of the series were picked by the experts to breeze through to the champion- ship of the universe wih little op- position from the stubbora band of New Yorkers. The Gotham squad, forced to play all series games in Montreal owing to lack of ice ae- commodation in Madison Square Garden, unleashed some of the fighting qualities of their manager, however, and after one of the most stubbornly-fought series in the his- tory of the cup were returned vie- tors by a 3 to 2 game margin, with the climax to five incident-packed contests coming last night in the most exciting and thrilling game of the titular fixtures. The Maroons, while beaten Sat- '\ urday night, were by no means dis- 'graced, and in defeat stamped themselves as a team of supreme fighting qualities. The locals npen- ed on the attack, and practically throughout the entire sixty min- utes of play held a commanding margin in territorial play. They consistently outplayed, outskated and outshot the blue-clad Rang- ers. In fact, the Montrealers did everything to outscore the stub- born band from New York. How- ever, as it 1s goals that count in hockey games, the visitors were re- turned victors, Out of the heat and smoke uf battle there arose two outstanding heroes, both of them members of the winning team, Joe Miller and ------ New Martin THEATRE "The TIGRESS New Story of Love with a background of hate, ------ ADDED -------- COMEDY Newly Wed's Surprise One of those Comedies that everyone likes | FOX NEWS TONIGHT ; T Frank Boucher. 'Miller, the 'goalie, who was called in to replace Lorne Chabot, regular Ranger nét-mind- er, who was seriously injured in the second game of the series, gave one of the greatest exhibitions of goalkeeping ever seen om local ice, and it is doubtful if his perform- ance has ever been beaten in the annals of organized hockey. . Miller Shows His Class From starting gong to finishing bell, the Maroons were almost con- tinually on the attack. The Rang- er defence was strong, but not strong gh to istently turn back the swarming Maroon attack- ers, It was them that Miller rose to the heights to turn back the Mon- treal threat almost single-handed- ly. Time after time the Maroons peppered him with shots from all angles and distances, but only once did they penetrate . his marvelous blocking tactics, and that when the Rangers had a comfortable 'two- goal lead in the last minute of the final period. : Miller's performance was all the more remarkable when'it is taken into consideration that he played practically the entire game with a pair of badly swollén eyes, the re- sult of an accident early in the in- itial session, when he fell on a Ma- roon player's outstretched which caught him on the nose be- tween the eyes. While Miller looked after the de- fensive end of the game so well for the Rangers, Frank Boucher, the clever little centre player, led what few offensive' threats the Rangers did make, and scored two goals on clever individual efforts. He secor- ed his first late in the first period, when he broke through following a sustained Maroon attack. He snak- ed through Siebert and Dutton. the Maroon defence pair, and then'8lev- erly fooled Benedict. It was an unexpected move on the part of Boucher, as the Rangers were short-handed at the time and were hemmed in at their own end by a strong Maroon attack. ' The Deciding Counter His second goal was of a similar nature, The Maroons left only Munro on the defensive. in front of Benedict and sent the rest of the team on the attack, It was. late in the third period, Suddenly Bou- cher grabbed the puck at his awn blue line and outstepped the pursu- iny opposition, Somehow or other the puck slipped ahead of him out of his reach. Both he and Junto, made a dash' for the disc, he Montreal defence man was just too late, and Boucher streakad in on the unguarded Benedict and 'once again the latter was outguessed. With only five minutes to go, and with the opposition legding by two goals, the Maroons diq not give up hope. They immediately re- turned to the attack, and once again were thumping shots off Mil- ler's stick, pads and body with mo- notonous regularity, The pressure finally told, and Phillips scored on a pass from Siebert, The Montreal team's efforts them hecame frantle, and the last two minutes of the game produced some heetic hockey, It was heart-breaking for the Ma- roons and their supporters, but Mil- ler turned back shot after shot, and the bell rang, thug sending the Stanley Cup. io the United States. Oatman's Counter Disallowed An untoward incident occurred in the final period when the Rangers were leading 1 to 0. The Maroons were taging one of tneir most vie- jous assaults on the New York net, Russ Oatman, Maroon sub, finally got the disc into the net, but Ref- eree Rodden ruled offside, and the count was disallowed. The crowd supporters, were incensed by the official's ruling. They immeidately ticns of the rink, bleachers, reserv- ed seats and boxes, came a shower of missiles ranging from programs, pennies and hats, and finally a chair was tossed over .the boards by a disgusted box-holder. He and many - others who . were caught ejected from the rink, real ice received such a razzing as was given Rodden by the disgruntl- mob crowded around the-front en- trance of the Forum, evidently waiting to give the referee another 9 \ CT PELB URN; "DIRECTLY FACING THB SEA" ATLANTIC CITY "F, Famous French eon Plan" Gril} ano Restaurem owen "A rendezvous for thoss who sech he best" lor stick |» 'of 12,000, practically all Maroon, went into action, and from all sec- throwing articles, were immediately.

"Newark, with its great club and added capacity for 5,000 spectators, will have 20,000 or more if the wea- ther is good on the opening day. Jer- sey City, with the greatest team it has had in years, should play to 12,- 000; and a revival of interest in Bal- timore is calculated to attract from 12,000 to 14,000. Reading has a better club and is popular, and should draw 6,000 to 8,000." 'The added population is the result of the substitution of Montreal for yracuse. The Canadian city, return- ing to the league with one of the best minor lcague parks seating 25,- 000, will have its opening May 2. "It should be the best year we ever had," said President Toole, "We have setter club heads and better play- ing talent than ever before. The eight clubs appear more evenly mat- ched than has been the case in many years, "The Newark club, with Paul Block at its head, should prove very popular. Everyone will regret that Manager Walter Johnson will not be able to be either on the bench or on the mound at the opener. "The Montreal organization is one of the best in baseball, representing both the English and French-speak- ing communities. hTe city is the lar- gest in our league. Reading has strong backing. Buffalo wants an- other pennant, and Sam Robertson and Bill Clymer are doing their best to produce. Baltimore fans are com- ing back to the Orioles this Spring, and the Toronto management is popular, and with prospects excellent for a good team the big season's at- tendance should result. "Newark and Persey City will have great crowds when the two teams meet. Both are stronger this year than they were last season, and 1928 should see a revival of the rivalry which was intense in the old days. "If the weather man will just help us off to a good start, we may make a new attendance record." The league president will attend the opener at Newark, where the Leafs will be opponents of the Bruins. WILL ATTEND MONTREAL OPENER Montreal, Alfred E. Smith of New York, Judge Kenesaw M. Landis, Baseball Commissioner, and Premier Tas- chereau of.Queebc, are to be guests of the Montreal Kiwanis Club May 2. A.

LEAFS DEFEAT ASHEVILLE 4 TO 1 Asheville, N.C., April 15.--Jess Doyle has pitched better games than he did here on Saturday, and will undoubtedly do so during the regular season, but his effort was good enough to carry him to a 4 to 1 win over Asheville, He did not need any help, although Songer was kept warming up through the entire piece in case of emergencies. Doyle's peprformance was not nearly as impressive as that of Prudhomme's the day before, and by the same token the Leafs did not display the same consistency with the bat and were perhaps for- tunate to snatch the verdict. It was only by a strong rally in the last two frames that they forged to the front, Harry Smythe, a southpaw from the Southern League, gave the To- ronto crew something to worry about with his wicked slants, ard while he was in the box the Leals failed to get anywhere. They con- nected with some frequency, it 18 true, and once filled the bases with two out on Rabbitt's bunt, Webb's slashing single to left, and a walk to Alexander after Sheedy had popped, but Burke ended the attack with & bounder to the pitcher. SENATORS WIN FROM BOSTON 6 TO 5 Washington, April 15. --Timely hitting gave the home team a 6 to 5 decision over the Boston Red Sox here today. About 10,000 fans braved a cold day to see Marberry, former relief pitcher, turn in his second win in as many starts. Goslin's heme run in the third, with two on base, and his circus catch off Hoffmann's bat in the second inning while stretching high upon the left field wall were feat- ures. Both Ruffling and Marberry were hit freely, Braxton relieved Marberry in the ninth when Boston threatened to tie the score, He fanned Ken Wil- liams for the final out. ST. LOUIS 4, CUBS 8 St. Louis, April 15. --Frankie Frisch, after making his third home-run of the season in the fifth inning of today's Cardinals' game with the Cubs, tripled with Holm on base in the seventh for the de- ciding run, and St, Louis won, 4 3. Chicago's big inning came in the out a homer with two men on second, when Hartnett slammed bases. : Pitcher Sherdel, in addition to going the full route for the Car- dinals drove out a circuit clout in the fifth, A -------------- BROOKLYN 3, BOSTON 2 Brooklyn, April 15.--~Watson Clark shaded his fellow southpaw, Dutch Brandt, Seattle recruit, here today, and Brooklyn nosed out Boston, 3 to 2, in the opening games of the series, About 30,000 persons attended, despite the cold, and several thousands more were turned away, Brandt was found for seven hits, while Clark held the Braves to six. Three Boston safeties were bunch- ed in the sixth when the Braves tied the score, Riconda's triple and Freigau's sacrifice fly gave the Robins the winning run in their own half of the sixth, Detroit, April 15.--Haskell (*Josh") Billings held Cleveland to five scattered hits here today while his mates were pounding out an 8 to 2 victory, It was Detroit's first victory of the season and Cleveland's first defeat. Billings retired the last fourteen Indian batters to face him in or- der, besides driving out a double and single in three official turns at bat, Charles Gehringer, Tiger second baseman, led the Detroit attack with a double and single, which drove in four runs, in addition to piltering two bases.

The deal was closed Saturday, and it marks the passing of one of the real veterans of thé diamond from the Herd. While with the Bisons for only a little over two years, Leverenz twirled for the White Sox and other big league clubs, and was a member of John McGraw's famous around-the-world tour in 1913. His most famous feat while a Bison was the hurling of a no-hit, no-run game, the first of his long career, against the Reading club in Au- gust, 1926. Pitcher Sutherland Scott, native Buffalonian, whe Manager Clymer thinks has the ultimate making of a good double "A" hurler, alsa will be left behind when the club leaves here tomorrow, having been option- ed out to Manager Jimmy Viox, of the Raleigh Caps. Johnny O'Malley, another Buf- falo lad, who has been an outfield aspirant, will be given his outright release and sent home from Rich- mond Monday. Johnny's slight stat- ure has been the chief draw-back in his case. The Bison management desired to send John to the Ashe- ville club, but he said he would prefer to return to his Buffalo posi- tion and join Emmet Pollard"s Gen- eral Tire nine, Joe Stryker also is due to be farmed out before the pay-roll be- comes effective on opening day, and Clymer is now seeking a spol for him. This leaves only Howard Sig- nor, pitcher, and Frankie Pytlak, Buffalo backstop, as survivors among the Bison rookie crop of 1928. Pytlak also will be farmed out as soon as a catcher of first- class ability is secured, and Signor stands as the lone find, The Shinglehouse (Pa.) lad now looms as 'a regular member of the right- handed flinging corps. Manager Clymer received word today from Pitcher "Lefty" Wil- liams that he will join the club in shape to pitch when it arrives at Ba.t:more Wednesday. The Bisons defeated Raleigh 8 to 4 yesterday.
