The Maroons outplayed the hap- less Hawks practically throughout the game, but close checking by the visitors, backed by Chuck Gard- ner's usual spectacular goaltending, held the locals to two counters, Trottier and Stewart did the scoring, the former notching in the first period and Stewart beating Gardner when the Hawks had two men in the penalty box in the dy- ing moments of the game.

Period in Boston's| | Win Over Leafs| Toronto, Feb, 1,--Battling until the final bell, the Maple Leafs were defeated, but far from disgraced, when they were outscored by the Boston Bruins at the Arena Gar dens last night by 3 to 1, and they gave a remarkably game display against a club which looks the bes of all that have visited Toronto this season, After three or four years of experimenting, and that stage is not yet over, as Ross is still buying, selling and trading players, the Bruins have secured a strong team, and it should not be long before they are setting the pace in the American group of the league, The locals, weakened by the illness of Horne and the injury sustained by Day to his ankle in Ottawa on Tuesday, did not have the reserve strength to cope with the Bostonians, and the lattér had an edge on the play and deserved the victory, While the most goals and the valuable two points that go with a victory went to the Brunis, giving them a record of eleven wins ana two deadlocks since the new year was ushered in, the Leafs secured considerable glory out of the en- counter, if that is any balm to tne club and its supporters, of whom there were plenty present last nignt judging by the demonstrations that accompanied penalties. or lack of them at several times, The locals have been in a losing streak since Jan, 5, which has only been punc- tuated by two ties and a win, but they went down with colors flying, and in the last seven minutes of the game, after Boston had secured a two-goal lead, the losers staged a determined assault that brought everything but the desired count- ers, THOMAS NISBY The Oshawa Representative in the big Canadian National Exhibi- tion swim last fall, is still keep- ing in shape. His training com sists of a brisk romp around the ice covered shore of the lake and then a swim in the icy cold wat- er, The duration of the swim is usually fifteen minutes, which goes to show how fit Nisby really is, The cold waters of Lake Ontario should make him feel no apprehensions next Aug- ust, when the day of the Wrig- ley Marathon comes arvana, RANGERS DEFEAT CITY RIVALS 2 TO 1 New York, N.Y,, Feb, 1, -- The New York Rangers evened the ser- jes for the hockey cnampionship of the city last night, by taking the final game from the Americans by a 2 to 1 count, Each team now has one victory and two games have been ties, The result enabh- led the Rangers to hold their lead over Boston in the American group of the National Hockey League, and left the Americans second in the international section. Three brilliant individual efforts accounted for the three goals, Bil- ly Burch opened the scoring late in the second period, carrying the puck through the Blue Shirt de- fence to beat, Roach, Taffy Abel tied the count in the last minute of the frame, sending a sizzling drive past Worters, and Leo Bour- geault fought off the American de- fence and flipped in a short back- Leafs' Penalties Costly Their weakness was penalties. The first and third Boston goals were scored with local men in the penalty box, and on other occasivus it took sensational work by Chabot to turn back the Bruins, but he was not the only custodian tuat had to show brilliant efforts, as Thompson was tcsted several times and came through when goals look ed more than possible, The game was a strenuous affair, the che:k- «ng being close all the way, and at times there were outbreaks of body- checking that delighted the fans, who like to see an attacker brought up with a sudden jerk.

Neither team scored in the first period, but early in the second Dundas put the Petes in the '2ad with a shot from the side only to havée Hagerman even it up on a similar play, Leggett picked up a loose puck an dscored at close range to give Peterboro a two-to- one lead: Foley went in alone early in the third period to make it 3 to 1, and the Petes looked to be winners, but R, Ware scored for Port Hope on a pass from Hills, and Highfield tied the score on a lucky one that was deflected off a Peterboro player. There was no score in the first two overtime periods, but four apd a half minutes after the thizg bv. ertime session started T. barr scored for the Petes on a shot from outside the defence.

Porter 2 | FREE STATE SALE OF BRITISH SILVER London, Feb. 1.--In both Houses of Par.lament yesterday questions were asked about the rumored agreement be.ween the British Government and the Goy- ernment of the Irish Free State for the purchase of British coin- age in circulation in the Irish Free State, In the Upper House Lord Danes- fort said the Free State Govern- ment had decided to call in the whole of the British silver coinage in circulation in the Free State. They had made demands, he said, on the British Government to buy up all this debased coinage, not at bullion but a face value. This would mean a2 demand on the British treasury of between $2,- 500,000 and $3,000,000, he point- ed out, Lord Danesfort urged that such an agreement should not be made without the sanction of Par- liament. The Earl of Plymouth said the matter was still under discussion with the Free State Government.
