And instead of weakening, as they have in games of late, the Cougars outlasted the Canadiens, Herberts started it for Detroit late in the first period when he bat ted the puck past the opposing de- fense, Less than two minutes mt er, Brophy, another Olympic grad- uate, took a pass from Noble toy the second one, The second pair of Detroit tallies came close together.

The final score was 9 to 3 for the Twin City crew, and that count just about tells the story, With Molson, Roth and Schmidt on the front line and Schneider and Shirk on the defence, with Ruppel in goal behind them, the Kitchener squad presented an almost . senior line-up compared with the Wood- stock aggregation, and their style of play moré than indicated it, Woodstock showed life in but one period, the last, when they tallied their three goals and put some pep into their own handful of fans, The ine-up: Woodstock--Goal, Coulter; de- fence, Collins and H, Moore; centre, Grant; wings, Mooney and Thrower; subs, Smith, Wilson, Zuck and Pierce. Kitchener=Goal, Ruppel; defence, Shirk and Schneider; centre, Roth; wings, Schmidt and Molson; subs, Kuntz, Lesnan, Schnarr and R. Moore, Referce--Sky Easson. Owing to the lack of ice in Bowmanville last night the Oshawa Simcoes were unable to have their first practice, The team turned out in full force for a workout on the gym floor of the Y.M|C.A, nr ------ There is to be an important meeting of the Oshawa Shamrocks in the "Y" on' Friday night, All those interested will be made welcome. The meeting starts at 8 o'clock sharp. The Shamrocks play their first game a week today at Peterboro H.S, Jack Jarvis, coach of the Queen's University boxing team, is home in Toronto for the Christmas holiday season, According to Mr, Jarvis, his boxing team is going to wreck considerable havoc during the progress of the intercollegiate assault-at-arms at Kingston, February 16 and 17, when McGill and University of Toronto will provide the opposition, (loach Jar- vis is particularly enthusiastic over the prospects of a new heavyweight "find," Ted Gaitz, third-year science student, but in his first year in the punching school, Gaitz is a hard hitter and is learning the game very quickly, L, Remus, a freshman, is the lightweight threat, while "Chuck" Agnew, of Toronto, well-known football star, looks better than ever, Agnew was just shaded in his intercollegiate bout last year. [REric Nichol, inter- collegiate light heavyweight champion, will be ready to defend his laurels, "Hank" Brown, an experienced light heavyweignt, will not be available be- cause of an injured hand. Professor Jarvis in his competitive days was a professional of ability and it is natural that he should compare his charges with the outstanding professionals, Gaitz, he says, bears a strong resembl- ance to Tunney, while Remus is a "miniature Dempsey." Although the Maple Leafs lost to the Maroons in Montreal last night, the winners climbing into a tie for first place with the Americans, the re- sults of the other three games in which Canadian group teams were engaged, were entirely satisfactory.to the followers of the local club as the Ameri- cans, Senators and Canadiens also remained stationary, The Maroons were the only club to gain ground and they only caught up to the Americans, so there is still a difference of only six games between the leaders and tail- enders, At Arena Gardens tonight those old Big Four junior rivals, Toronto Canoe Club and Marlboros, will meet in their first scheduled clash of the O.H.A, scason. The speedy and exciting games they produced in the S.P.A, series shows there is not a great deal to choose between them and the Red Ringers are liable to end the Dukes' string of victories at any rime they come together, Young Stribling, Macon heavyweight, knocked out Pancho Castano, of Tampa, Fla., and Havana, Cuba, in the second round of a 10-round fight last night. Stribling weighed 185, Castano 204, ---- Thasall, .Y. Rangers, - Senators Have Close Battle New York, Dec, 21.~The New York Rangers again combined a fast attack - with tight defensive work to take a hard-fought Na- tional Hockey League game from the Ottawa Senators 1 to 0 last night, The Rangers had a slight edge over the battling Senators in all but the first period, when one of their few successful attacks brought the only goal of the game, Bill Cook and Frank Boucher staged a pretty passing attack to score, Boucher got the puck in front of the goal; and finding him- self shut off, passed to Bill, far out to the left. The Senators had a wide margin in the shooting all through the first period, Roach stopping seven- teen Ottawa shots while Connell had but five saves. In the other two frames honors were about even, Both teams. played a care- ful game, taking no chances with the other's attack, and as a result, there was a considerable loss of speed at times, especially when they were a man short due to in- frequent penalties, Pirates Break Americans String of Many Victories Pittsburg, Dee, 21,--The Pittsburg Pirates of the National Hockey Lea- gue won their first home encounter of the season here yesterday, dump- ing the league-leading New York Americans by a 1-to-0 score, The Pi- rate win broke the Americans' five game winning streak. The marker was made in the third period by "Hib" Milks, who had repeatedly pressed down the ice, Play was rough and fast and was livened up by fistcuffs between "Toots" Holway and Burch in the last two minutes of play, The win gave the Pirates a new lease on life, and before they return to the home ice again, next Tuesday, a new face will be seen in the line-up, Frank Frederickson, Boston centre, having been purchased for $12,000 and Mickey Mackay, according to an announcement .tonight, Worters starred for the New York- ers, as did Sheppard, the latter be- ing brilliant on the offense, Milks and Miller were Pirate scintillants.

Minneapolis St. Paul ,,., Duluh Tulsa severe Millionaires Defeat London Toronto Millionaires earned a place in the fourfeam tangle for third position in the Canadian Profession. al Hockel League staandings, with a 4 to 2 victory over London Panthers at the Arena Gardens last night, The locals were just as good as the score shows, for they gave their best ex- hibition as a team this year, have ing co-ordination on both offensive and defensive efforts, and London did not seriously threaten after the sec. ond period commenced, The Pan. . | thers did not live up to advance no- tices, but they can be excused, for three of their prominent performers were left in a London hospital vic. tims of the influenza, The Millionaires had their est teams of the seasom, p! y the first time they have been able to use all their men, and there was a decided improvement in their play. The different sets of front lines all' played nice combination, skated fast ,| and checked consistently, while the rearguard trio of Fisher in goal, guarded by Young and Green, also seemed stronger. London did not have any luck in meeting the locals last night, for Teddy Oke's team was at top strength while Corbeau's collection was riddled by illness, SMYTHE DENIES SALE OF CARSON Montreal, Dec. 21.--It was reported at the Forum here last night, during the Montreal-Toronto NHL, game, that Bill Carson, Leaf centre player, was to he sold or traded to the De- troit Cougars.
