ow I = PAGE ZIGHT THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 20, 1929 MAPLE LEAFS GET 2 GOAL LEAD-OCL ANNUAL GYM DISPLAY ' Winners Obtain a Two-Goal Lead in First Period, Each Team Scoring in Closing Minutes of Game -- Leafs Had Edge on Speed, But One of the Features Was the Strong Defensive Play of Toronto Rear Guard-- | Fifteen Penalties Imposed Olympic Stadium, - Detroit) Mar. 20. Lb Two goals by Andy Blair, one after a minute and a han ui play in the opening period #nd the other within two minutes of the end of the game, gave the Maple Leafs a two-goal margin over the Detroit Cougars in the first of the home-and-home games in the play- off in the National Hockey league game between 'the two clubs that finished the regular season in third place in their . respective groups. The final score was 8 tO 1, and on the play the visitors de- gerved the margin, although after they had secured a two-goal lead before the end of the first period, the winners played a more aefen- give game than is their custom and as a result Chabot, in goal, ! had more saves to his credit than had Dolson at the other end of the a Aap ice. , © While Blair occupied the leading role in the game, he was far from ! peing a stand-out, as the other members of the team turned in fine efforts. Blair played a most ' useful game and earned his coun- ters but both he and his team- mates were turned back on a num- ber of occasions wien wavy uppear- ed to be in for sure counters by | the brilliant work of Dolson, in the Cougars' cage, After scoring the first goal in ' lde of two minutes from the start of the game, the Leafs held 'the upper hand and it was not until the third -period that the Cougars became consistently dan- gerous and they deserved a counter for their persistent efforts in the final twenty minutes, First Period the Fastest The first period was the fastest of the three and the first 12 min- i utes produced a steady pace that was not equalled for any length of time during the remainder ot ' the game, Shortly after midway. i in the opening chukker, the pace + slackened down and it continued in this slow but sure manner for most . of the remainder of the game, in- | terspersed ®ccasionally by bursts of ¢ that threatened the opposing cages, but nothing came of the at- I'l s until within two minutes of she end of the first period. Art b ith added a second counter and { followed. { This dearth of scoring was fin- ! any broken by George Hay, the ! Cougars' brilliant wing man, who i broke away three and a half min- ¢ utes from the end of the game and ' erossed up the Leafs' defence vy ' veversing and driving the rubber {at the cage. The rubber hit the i post, caromed off on to Chabot's i leg and then dropped into the net. ! This reduced the Leafs' lead to one i goal, and spurred on by the fran- ! tic peladings of their supporters, . § the Cougars staged a number of : attacks, but the winners' defence to all emergency : proved equal ealls, Occasionally the visitors broke { away on an attack and while the i! Cougars' defence was somewhat | weakened by the additional + strength added to the forward line + in an effort to get the equalizer, { Dolson stemmed all the assaults t but one. This last charge was 8 { beatiful effort by Blair, exactly the ! same as the goal he scored early in the opening period of last Thurs- i day's game against the Americans. : He broke away along the left | boards and circled the Cougars' defence. Dolson Leafs Play Brilliantly Defeating Detroit 3-1 HOCKEY RESULTS Last night's Rockey games re- sulted as follows: "National League Maple Leafs 3 Detroit ......1 Boston ......1 Canadiens ,, 0 Rangers .... 0 Americans ,,..0 Allan Cup Playdowns xPort Arthur 4 Regina ......1 xPort Arthur wins round 5-1.

There were 15 penalties imposed by the two officials the Cougars getting nine of them, three in each period, while the Leafs had two in the first, three in the second and one ii the third, Art Smith had three of the Leafs' penalties while Connors made four visits to the penalty timers, The Detroit fans did not like some of the decisions or penalties and twice the game had to be halted until the ice was cleared. The two goal margin secured here by the Leafs last night should carry them through to the second round against the New York win- ners and they may increase the margin in Toronto on Thursday.

Bruins Blank Boston, March 20.--Boston Bruins, champions of the Ameri- can division of the National Hoc- key league, obtained the jump on Canadiens, the International sec- tions titleholders, by smashing out a 1 to 0 victory here last night in the first game of the Stanley cup play-offs. Though both teams ap- peared equally matched and dis- played almost the same aggres- siveness, the Bruins were able to take advantage of the only break of the game which came in the The clash was less than eight minutes old when Weiland, the Bruins' second string centre, rush- ed with Captain Lionel Hitchman, The latter carried the rubber down the centre as his mate started down the left boards, They cross- ed Canadiens' blue line together and once inside, Hitchmand snap- ped' Weiland a perfect pass, Wel- land continued along the rail for about ten feet, cut in sharply be- hind Burke and Mantha, the visit- ing defence pair, and rammed a eft-handed shot in the open cor- ner of Hainsworth's net, Smeaton Rules 'No Goal" Half way through the second session, the Flying Frenchmen had almost the same scoring chance. Morenz and Patterson broke through and Tiny Thompson stop- ped the former's shot, Patterson played the rebound and the Bos- ton goalie came out to make the stop. Mondou swept in and caged the rubber while Thompson was outside, but Referee Smeaton ruled that Morenz was offside and the tally was ruled out, The Bruins' victory was the first they have scored on Les Canadiens in Boston since November, 1927, The game was a sell-out, over 15,000 people attending. ; Boston--Thompson, goal; Hitch- man and Shore, defence; Carson, centre; Galbraith, Oliver, wings; Welland, Gainor, Clapper and Owen, subs, Canadiens--Halinsworth, goal; Burke and Mantha, defence; Le- pine, centre; Joliat and Gagne, wings; Morenz, Mondou, Leduc, Patterson and Gardner, subs, VANCOUVER 3, SEATTLE 2 | Vancouver, March 20.--Vancouver Lions closed the regular Pacific Coast Hockey League playing home schedule here Monday night with a 3-to-2 victory over the Seattle Eski- mos, The Seattle club started the scoring in the first period, and the Lions followed with two, adding one more in the middle session, while Seattle's last counter came in the last few seconds of the first period with Brown netting. Canadiens 1 to 0| | SPORT SNAPSHOTS | The Maple Leaf Ball Club with teams in the Juvenile and Junior sec- tions of the City and Industrial league are Cais a meeting at the Y.M.CA. uveniles were runners up on Wednesday, March the 27th, The Leafs either team are cordially last year and ajl players wishing to try out wit! invited to attend this meeting. Advices from the training camp of the Toronto Baseball club are to the effect that the Leafs are after a player recently declared a free agent by Judge Landis. Guy Cantrell, pitcher with Baltimore last year, may be the player sought, but to get him, the Leafs will have to bid high, as the Braves and other clubs are bidding for his services, Tris Speaker, after looking over the Bears, is on the trail of a first- catcher, an infielder and a righ-hitting outfielder, From the camp of the Athletics comes the report that Connie Mack would have been willing to pay the Toronto club $75,000 for Dale Alexander, Connie yould have possibly gone higher, for away last August he offered the Toronto club $75,000 for the big first baseman, ' In a report of the boxing at Trinity College at Woodstock, George Elliot, son of W. D| Elliot of this city won a heavyweight feature from Russ of Montreal. At the meeting of the City and Industrial Softball League held last night at the Y.M.C.A, many new ideas were proposed, among these were to compel juvenile and junior players to turn in along with their certificates to play, a certificate of birth, and another was to have the intermediate series comprised of ten teams only, As there are nine already entered and at least four more clubs with every intention of entering teams this would make it appear as a race to be the lucky one to get in on the fun, At the last meeting it was decided to keep the entry date open to April the 16th, with that amount of time with which to form clubs and the entries resulting from such formations there could easily be two groups of from six or more clubs, A two group league would make four, a four team play off at the end of schedule to keep the interest of the fans, The Toronto Maple Leafs, led by Andy Blair were in last night getting a two goal lead in the first of the home and home games. This lead should be sufficient to enable them to reach the second place play-offs, but after the Yarsity:Otawa upset one can never tell just what the final outcome will be, Playing a defensive game and waiting for breaks caused the American- Ranger game to end in a scoreless tic. Both Worters and Roach turned in remarkable games between the nets making some miraculous saves. Goals count on the round so the second game will not end in a tie as both teams will have to play to a finish tomorrow night, There would have been overtime at Boston had not Cooney Weiland, former Owen Sound junior, bulged the net in the first period for the only goal of the game, The Bruin-Canadien series is the best three out of five, and unlike the other two contests, games count, It was the Bruins' first victory over Canadiens in Boston in two years, On the other hand the league moguls know from experience how many teams can be handled by themselves throughout an entire playing season, i.e, field accommodation and drafting a suitable schedule so that their decision to have only a ten team league is based on knowledge secured from the greatest of all teachers, With the decision softball clubs from the city will be engaged in a race for the last berth, and those that get left will be clamoring for an ammendment of the rule , And the muscles on the brawny arms stood out like sparrows knees, Yes sir the Collegiate held its second annual Gym display last night and some real stunts, and athletic prowess was on exhibit before a capacity house, The performance is to be repeated tonight, London, March 20--Everything is New York City Rivals Play to Scoreless Tie New York, Mar, 20.--New York's two hockey teams, the Americans and Rangers, battled through 60 minutes of hard hockey to a score- less tie last night in the first game of the play-off series between the teams finishing second in their groups in the regular National Hoe~ key league race, The series is nf two games, total goals to count, and therefore no overtime was played in the first contest. Neither team had any marked advantage through the closest game of the season at Madison Square Garden, The Rangers drill- ed a few more shots, but the stel- lar goaltending of Roy Worters and the fine defensive play of the en- tire American team more than off set this advantage. The brilliant passing attacks of Lester Patrick's team seldom could make any head- way against the barrier of muscle amd hickory around the Argerican net, Johnson and Burch Bolstered up by the presence of Ching Johnson, defence star, who was out most of the season with a broken ankle, the Ranger defence was as effective against the slow~ er American attack, The swift shots of Bill Burch gave- Johnny Roach plenty of hard stops, but none of them came near .getting past him, Although hard fought and fast all the way, the game offered few features, The only semblance nf a score came in the first period when Paul Thompson, Ranger spare wing, took a pads out from Murray Murdoch and jammed it into the net, taking Goalie Worters with it, but the referee's whistle had sound- ed beforethe play was made and the goal was not allowed, Only six penalties were called, five going to the Rangers, three of these to Johnston, Americans--~Goal, Worters; de- fence Reise and Conacher; centre, Burch; wings, Broadbent and Con~ nor; subs, Himes, McVeigh, Simp- son, Dye, Sheppard and White, Rangers--Goal, Roach; defence, Johnson and Abel; centre, Bouch~ er; wings, W.

G, ("Bobby") Giddens of Ottawa, Ont, was yesterday elected captain of the Harvard hockey team for next season, Giddens, a mempe: of the class of 1930, has played right wing for two seasons and is one of the outstanding collegiate hockey players in the United States, | 'of the Clever Athletic Performance At Collegiate Gym Display Gymnasium Was Well Fill- ed With an Appreciative Audience -- Senior Boys and Girls Draw Much Ap- plause -- All Participants Are Well Trained in Par- ticular Parts The first night of the Second An- nual Gymnastic Display of the Osh- awa Collegiate Institute was held last night in the school gynasium. The large gym was filled to capacity with students, their relatives and friends, with the track or gallery equally as well filled, There were 26 numbers on the pro- gram, each calling for a dozen or more students to perform his or her part and the readiness with which these students responded to their call showed the result of much training. The numbers were run off in a speedy manner with little or no time be- tween each, The athletes whether girl or boy knew just where to go and when, The small period between the acts was kept amusing by a trio of pupil clowns who burlesqued the act preceeding, Probably the most enjoyed feature of the performance was that of the senior boys on the apparatus when this group displayed a graceful arm and leg movement on the flying rings, parallel bars and other gymnasium apparatus, Rippling muscles of arms and legs were pretty to watch as these seniors from the fourth and fifth forms moved in graceful leaps over the bars and rings. Another amusing number was that of a musical play called "Posture." This singing act led by Miss Reta Maxwell, as the teacher in a ettiquet school, received the hearty applause of the entire assembly, A basket ball game between two teams of midget girls disclosed some smart feminine talent in the cage game, The "Pyramids", enacted by a score of more boys was another item that drew the applause of the crowd. Smart tumbling, rythmical dancing 'and drills, by both boys and girls of all ages and a general exhibition of athletic prowess all combined to make this display an unqualified success in the eyes of the school staff, parents upils and those attending, to say nothing of the physical instructor, Mr, C. 8, Patterson, B.A, and in- structress, Miss M, L, Dryden, B.A. The Program Grand March, boys; Clubs, IVth and Vth Forms, girls; Mimetic-Box- ing, II C, boys; country dances, girls; marching drill, IIIA, IIIIB, boys; tumbling, girls; games, IA, IC, boys; rings, girls; men of valour, III AC, III BC, girls; apparatus, IVth and Vth forms, boys; "Cadet Rousselle", 1B, girls; posture, girls; mimetics~ drills, IA, boys; midget girls' basket« ball team, girls; tennis dance, girls; wrestling match, boys; maypole dance, girls; pyramids, IIIC, 1VB, boys; wooden shoes, ILIA, IIIB, girls; wand drill, IF and D, boys; mimetics, IIA, IIB, girls; single stick, IIA, IIB, boys; medley clog, girls; sailors' hornpipe, girls; tumbling, boys; four little maids, girls, The display is to be given in the collegiate gymnasium for the sec- ond and final showing this evening, City League Holds Meeting The City and Industrial Softball League of this city held their week- ly meeting last night at the Y.M.C. A, A large turnout of officials were present and a good deal of business transacted, The number of teams entered so far are 4 juvenile teams, 5 junior and 9 intermediate, It was decid ed that the intermediate series would be limited to 10 teams, so any team deciding to enter better get their hat in the ring before its too Mate, In regards to protests it was de- cided to have the fees for same wu be $5 for both intermediate and Junior and $3 for juvenile, this money to be refunded if protest is won, if lost, well, the league Is just in that much, Protest Committee It was also decided upon to have the protest committee to consist of the league executive and the man- agers of the other teams in the lene gue, the two managers in the proe test not being allowed a vote, This was moved by Art Gates and sec- onded by 8, Turner, Juvenile Le: As far as could be ascertained at the meeting there would be four teams in this series, Beavers, Leafs, U.A.C, of St, George's and the Eagles, There was no limit put on the amount of teams entered so a few more teams in this particular group would be welcome, It was moved and seconded that all juvenile players would have to enter birth certificates before being allowed to play, It was also au cided that on Tuesday night and Tuesday night only that players' certificates would ha signed, All teams are allowed 15 men, whose certificates must be in by July 11, It was decided that the next meeting would be on Tuesday next and all clubs wishing to en- ter teams are asked to he on hand, interuniversity boat race the greatest ever held, The crews are finer and more closely matched than any which } went to the tideway before them in the course of a hundred years of his- | tory, Practice has been favored by ideal weather conditions and every ig of the 16 men looks bronzed and SOCCER NOTES y G.
