The local Irish were more outs Jucked than out-played in Belle- ville in the first game, and while they have to overcome a stiff lead, the players are all set and con- fident of pulling down the lead for an ultimate win on the round. Handicaps such as loom up be- 'fore the '"Ardiel-Munroe-McFad- yen aggregation have been over- 'gome before by hard effort, unsel- fish playing, and the most import- ant factor--the determination to win, Other Oshawa teams have lab- fred under much the same con- ditions, and have finally come through with a great display of gourage and the urge to win, so Shamrocks get out there tonight and do your stuff and put the old fight into it, The game in Belleville by the score, was no indication of the true form of the Shamrocks, and tonight's sturggle will see the kids going at their best, and fight- ing tooth and neil for their right to carry on further, The game promises to he filled with all kinds of action and full of real interesting hockey right from the first gong, so fans will be more than well-advised to be on deck to see the fur fly, The kids sure- ly do step on it all of the time, and the speed and cleverness of both teams will be an eye-opener to the spectators, The Quinte City is sending up a large delegation of fans to root their boys along, and the Belle- viller's are real red-hot hockey fans who make themselves known in 'no uncertain way, This paper understands that the invasion from the East will siart early this af- ternoon and that all roads from the East will be leading to Burns' Arena, Whitby, for tonight's crucial game, There should be plenty of "Whoopee" over in Whitby tonight, + Oshawa fans are all needed over { there too tonight to put their "shoulders to the wheel in helping the boys out by their vocal sup- port in pulling out a win over * the Belleville crew, The locals are all in good shape and are more than eager to show : WINS IN TORONTO -- SHA Oshawa Hockey Fans to 1 See Fast Game Tonight HOCKEY RESULTS Results of last night's hockey games were: National League Canadiens ,..1 Montreal ,...0 Ottawa ....s:8 Chicago .e.s.

Canadiens then got their goal midway through the third, when Mondou got a pass from a face-off at the blue line and flip- ped a surprise shot past Benedict. The Maroons then rushed to the attack, but could not beat Hains- worth's brilliant goaltending, their supporters just what they can do when they are facing dif- ficulties, and the final punch is needed.

Any- way, he is not satisfied. Doyle's work last season was unsatisfactory and it was a foregone conclusion that his pay cheques would be whittled, and it is difficult to see where he has an alibi n owners in the past always have been generous on the salary question, and few players who wished to look at things in a reasonable way ever have had a legitimate cause for camplaint, There is no reason to expect that Bedore also was given for a kick.

DEFEAT RANGERS New York, N.Y., Feb, 22.--The Detroit Cougars held off the hard- est attacks the division-.eading New York Rangers could offer last night to take a hard National Hockey league s.ruggle by a 1-0 count, Carson Cooper, speedy right winger, scored the only goal of the game in the middle of the second period and left the Cougars to put up a great defensive battle for the rest of the game io hold their margin. The goal combined a brilliant shot with a fluke. From an aimost impossible angle Cooper, let fly a hard shot at the corner of the net. Roach tried to iurn it aside with his stick but the rubber made a queer bound and went into the net.

They turned in an excellent exhibition, while St. Mike's showed up poorly. The visitors appeared to lack pep and the Riversides found little trouble in guiding the disc through their ranks.

OTTAWA WINS FROM CHICAGO Detroit, Mich, Feb, 22.--0t- tawa's Senators fa tened their ce.- lar scoring average here last night at the expense of the homeless Chicago Black Hawks, 3-0, in a game that drew 4,000 fans but failed 10 prouuce any exciting action. King Clancy, Senator de- fenceman, was the hero of the af- fair, scoring two of (he goals, and aiding materially in the offence, not to mention serving three pen- alties for his zeal in keeping the game alive. "Hec" Ki.rea scored the other goal. The Hawk defence looked bad, and if it had not been for goalie Chuck Garduer, the Senators un- doubtedly would have had a scor- ing feast. As i. was Gardner turn- ed off some remarkably difficult shots, and it was little fault of his that the Hawks met defeat. Vig Rip.ey, Dick Irvin and Johnny Gottselig carried the brunt of the Chicago offence, bu. they could not cope with the Ottawans. The first two periods of the game were rather listless, the Hawks opening up in the last minutes but failing to seriously threaten Alex Connell in the Ottawa net.

Last night's performance in the national. championship games, marked Williams' first appearance on a Canadian track since his spec- ad victories at the 1928 Olym- piad. In winning the final of the 60- yard event last night, Williams was forced to equal his world's record of 6 1-5 seconds and his victory came after a great strusgle with Johnny Fitzpatrick, of Hamilton. Three Canadian records were smashed in the events last night. Harold Osborne, of the Illinois Ath- letic Club, Champaign, Ills., Olym- pic champion, set a mark of 6 feet 2 inchies in the high jump, but was 61 inches short of his world's mark. Vie Rickard, of Pittsburg, Pa., formerly of Hamilton. toppled the Canadian mark in the pole vault event when he cleared the bar at 13 feet. Jimmy Ball, of Winnipeg, who has been appearing with Williams in his Unitcd States invasion, smashed the third mark by clipping off the 300 yards event in 33 sec- onds flat. He had toppled the mark by 1 3-5 seconds in his heat, and then further cut into the old 35 second mark when he romped home an easy winner in the final. A world's record is claimed by Phil Edwards, of New York Uni- versity, who ran under the maple leaf in the Olympic games, for 660 yards, Edwards, British Guiana negro, was entered in the 600 yard event which he won handily, and continued on to the 660 mrark in an effort to set a record. He made the full 660 yards distance in 1 minute 21 1-5 seconds, Officials Three. New Records at Toronto Meet, Williams Wins 60 Yard Sprint MYRTLE COOK of Olmpic fame, who won the la- dies' sixty yard sprint at last night's meet. announced this sct a new mark, Edwards claims the old record is 1:21 4-5. Percy Williams' sensational win in the 60-yard final came as a spec- tacular climax to his defeat in the semi-final heat. Away to a good start, the Vancouver boy and Fitz- patrick broke away to a short lead and held it down the lanes. As they flashed to the tape, Williams by a mighty effort beat out the Hamil ton man in the last step. An air of disappointment was thrown about the meet last night when Bob McCallister, "Flying Cop" of New York, failed to appear in the 60 yard event against Wil. liams. It is McAllister's conten- tion he agreed to run in a special event, and not in heats. He main- tains that owing to a recent illness from which he is recovering he would be unable to do himself jus- tice by running the distance three times, but had agreed with officials to make his appearance once. When he found he was programmed for the heats he withdrew.
