PAGE SiX THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 24, 1950 ~ QUEEN BEES DEFEAT OSHAWA SENIORS TO WIN GROUP TITLI Record Crowd Sees Queen Bees Win From Oshawa Sts. In Fast, Exciting Game Queen's Secure Early Lead and Then Play Strong De- fensive Hockey to Frus- trate Oshawa's Desperate Attempts to Store Before a multitude of nearly 5,000 people, the largest crowd to ever attend a sporting event in this city, the Oshawa Seniors went down to defeat at the local Arena on Saturday night, battiing vainly against the superb defensive play of the Queen Bees. Hailed as the battle of the year, the new Arena was packed almost to capacity, every seat being sold and hundreds standing, but the Tricolour slowed up the game with their clever defensive gplay. How- ever, the fact that a record crowd was in attendance and that the Group Title was at stike, served to make the game the most excit- ing of the season. Coming to Oshawa with a one- goal lead, the Tri-colour annexed two goals, one of them a lucky break, in the first period and from then on until the final bell they presented one of the most stubborn and effective defensive games that has ever been seen in Oshawa. The glory of the victory undoubtedly goes to the three members of the Queen's rearguard, Morris, in the nets, was pratically unbeatable al- though at times he looked very fortunate. However, the two sturdy visit- ing defence men bore the brunt of Oshawa's desperate attacks and their consistent checking was het breaking to the Oshawa players and to the fans. Time and time again, they broke up what looked like sure-fire attacks and then lifted the puck to and far end of | the ice. | For practically all of the last 40 minutes, the Oshawa team com- pletely dominated the play. They kept the Tri-colour bottled up be- hind thelr own line and peppered Morris with shots from every angle but they could not score, The re- serve line, Houch, "Kip" Rowden, and Gilfillen seemed to be more ef- fective than the regulars and in the second period they sent the crowd into a frenzy. They skated like fiends and checked the visiting for- wards off their feet but, Murphy, Squires and Morris said "No." "Rainy" Lortie, star of the local - Junior team, played a good game on defence but it was quite obvious * that Lane was missed. Conlin play- ed one of his best games of the season and like every other mem- ber of the team, gave all he had In . a valiant attempt to win the game but it was not to be, The local team started out at a terrific clip and held the pace through the en- tire struggle. The Queen's team * played a slow game but the Oshawa squad never let up and they play- ed harder during the last three . minutes than at any other time _ during the game. And they congrat- ulated the Collegians before they left the ice, Every member of the team gave hig best and more in a hope- "less attempt to pull the game out of the fire, Leveque, in the nets for ~ Oshawa, saved a lot of hard drives 1 H l « 1 ¥ \ .

The Queens defence one taking no chances, Houck and Gilfillan displayed plenty of speed and never quit trying. Their efforts won the approval of all the fans. "Doc" Rowden was bothered with an injured leg and did not prove near as effective as usual, Bond and Black were guarded like the Crown jewels and were given little chance to become dangerous. The loss came as a great sur- prise to the majority of the fans, as the Oshawa team had showed a distinct superiority in the two previous home games but they could not get the breaks on Satur- day and they were the first to ad- mit that on the night's play the better won, This closes the O.H.A. season for the local Seniors but although beaten they are far from being disgraced. They have played. good hockey this season, having lost only one game at home, and taken all in all, it can be called a success- ful year. They will be back again next year, stronger than ever.

CanenrLy, Sporis Editor Queen Bees Sting Local Seniors The Oshawa Seniors went down fighting Saturday night, before the clever defensive play of the Queen Bees, The Students came here with a one goal advantage, by virtue of their 4 to 3 victory in Kingston on Thursday night and after scoring two goals, one of them a fluke, they scttled down to play defensive hockey, and they were successful in not holding their three goal advantage but increasing it to. four, The Oshawa team skated like fiends and did everything in their power to break through the packed defence and although they did manage to get through a few times, Morris turned aside all shots that were on »* EJ #* » Till the Final Bell There is one thing that could not help but be noticed. "Although, undoubtedly beaten, the locals never quit trying and they sure gave the fans their money's worth, They started out fast and they never let up. For practically all of the last two periods, they kept the Tri- cour behind their own blue line, but they were not meant to score, and although they showered Morris with shots from every possible the net. angle, they could not put anymore-than one by him. w * * w Oshawa's Largest Crowd And what a mob was at the game!

It resulted in a victory for Dr. 8.

Like the North American Life Trophy, the hand- some Wrigley Trophy will repose in Kitchener until next season. Rus- sell G, Hall's rink of that city de- feated the Hamilton four skipped by Ross Harstone after \a close battle in which an extra end was necessary. The Kitchener players came from behind on the seventh and ninth ends to take a lead. but they had to score the shot on the twelfth end to tie the game again, It was one of the most exciting finishes of the week. Judge L. V. O'Connor's rink from Cobourg captured the Seiberling Trophy after a close struggle with Ray Beat's Peterboro' quartet, The Cobourg skip had a lead until the tenth and eleventh ends when the Peterboro' curlers scored two threes to tie the game, But Co- bourg came through with the win- ning shot on the final end, In addition to winning the Wrig- ley Trophy, the R. G. Hall Kitchen- er rink will play in the Macdonald Brier Tankard games at the Gran- ite Club for the Dominion curling champio®ghip, which begins today. a | BRUINS WIN WITH New York, Feb. 24.--Boston Bruins put on another of their great finishing rushes last night to take one more National Hockey League battle from the New York Rangers by a 3 to 2 score. The Rangers still are seeking their first victory over the Bruins since 1928, After scrapping furiously through two periods and falling behind in the third, the Bruins scored twice in the last half of the final frame netting the winning goal with only a minute and ten seconds to go. { STRONG FINISH | they seldom showed much aggres- | siveness on the attack. confining most of their efforts to one and two-man attacks and long shots. | At other times. when the Leafs | staged strong offencives, the visit- | ors resorted to lifting the puck | to the other end 'of the ice. | Visitors Strong Defensively While the style of play adopted by the Senators and the failure of the Leafs to score on any of the soveral good openings that were offered them was decidedly annoy- ing to the 'spectators, some of whom at times implored the visit ors to play hockey. it was a smart display of defensive hockey by the winners. and it brought the desired result, The victory prade tically clinched a place in the play- offs for the Capital City's repre- sentatives. Walkerton and Bradford Tie 2-2 Stratford, Feb. 24.--In the first of home and home games in the inter- mediate O.H.A. semi-finals here, on Saturday night, Bradford and Walk- erton played to a twé-all score. The return game will be played in the Toronto Arena, Monday night, with goals to count on the round. It was a closely contested game. Bradford seemed content to lay back and. wait for the breaks, while the Walkerton team's play was disorgans ized through persistent backchecking of their opponents. Walkerton should have had at least four more goals, had their shots been more accurate, as they had the Brad ford defence beaten cold different times, only to miss the net entirely, hit the goaltender or the goalpost, ESKIMOS WIN GROUP Iroquois Falls, Feb, 24&--Iro- quois Falls qualified definitely to represent the northern group in the N.O.H.A, semi-finals later in this week by beating Kapuskasing 2 to 0 here last night, The locals had won the previous game, 4 fo from their visitors, who had been given a bye in the regular series.
