Trophy 'was Captured by Prince Albert.. from Port Perry by : a One Goal Margin--6-5. "As the score shows, this. game was a fight to the finish. Port Perry had a goal to regain from the previous game as the teams were playing home and home games, goals to.count on the round. "In the first few minutes of the game E. Crosier gave the Port players a close call when his shot just missed a wide open net during a scramble at the net. 3 When Prince Albert were one man short, Port Perry put just a little more pep into the game, and when H. DeShane passed to A. Anderson, he succeeded in getting that lead back. This brought renewed attacks from Prince Albert, but more than once Beare's lightening rapidity saved what looked like a sure goal. A. Anderson then decided it was about time he dispelled the jinx that has been following them, when he had 'the chance to score; so he picked up the puck at Prince Albert blue line and scored again for Port, making them one in the lead, which they held to the end of the period. The score being 5-4. The second period opened with a rush from Hrince Albert to tie up the score; but the first try did not make it, nor did several others--until Ben Smith taking a pass from B. Heayn, squeezed through the defence and finally succeed in planting that million dollar goal in the net. . Port Perry then summoned fresh players, and made for the Prince Al- bert net with fight in their eyes; but Lyle succeeded in warding off all at- tempts, to send the old rubber disc into the net. 'The defence did all they could to keep the puck clear and al- though there were some very close calls they were just close, that's all. In the third period Port Perry shoved up the extra man to their own won for any team; finally Prince" Al- sary goal. Although they were now in the Jead again they worked for more. In one rush L. Béare upset B. Heayn in front of the net the puck continued on its way: and missed the mouth of the wide open net by only a hair's breadth. Then the referee got what he was looking for, or at least it looked that way, for after hearing the bell ring, being upset by a scramble next to the boards. Port Perry failed to come back before the period ended and Prince Albert emerged victorious. "Amid cheers and smiling, the large The "Grave Diggers" Hockey Clb wish to thank R.

Mr, Peel said he was well pleased with the interest| the trophy had aroused in the rural players, and was glad to see so many of :the younger fellows getting into the games. Mr. Cecil Jeffrey, Capt. of the Prince Albert team, receievd the cup, and' thanked Mr, Peel on be- half of the team and himself, for such a lovely gift of which he was sure the team was proud to have been able to win.
