'The long Season was rought to a close at the Oshawa Arena last night when the Oshawa "Pats. defeated Niagara Falls by 7 to 3. | The victory put the Pats. in un- igputed possession of third place Niagara Falls are the League fons. 3 Pats. certainly made a credit- owing in their first season in ockey. They had more tough han any other two teams in the e and they lost more games by e goals than any other two 18. In the playorfs, the Pats. n two games, tied two and lost 0, which is a good showing. One 'it is, they made a great fight and were only two points from the top. The final standing of the teams in the playoffs again shows how evenly matched the different teams are. The Your teams were all separated by only one point, the order being, 10, 9, 8 and 7. Pats. Played Good Hockey Despite numerous knocks and anti- boosters, the Pats. kept plugging along and finished a very trying and hectic season. Several members of the squad played excellent hockey and showed a great deal of improve- ment. It would not be too much to expect that some of the Oshawa Pats. may be in higher company when the next season opens. The two local boys, Lott and Joyce both showed improvement. The game last night, as might be expected, proved to be only an ats tempt by the Pats. to get third place Niagara Falls had the championship and they were quite apparently not very anxious to- dispute last night's game with the Pats. The first period was anything but serious hockey but after that, the visitors used a differ- ent goalie, who.made a gallant. try and a good showing despite his ob- vious inexperience. All the players showed the effects of the gruelling battle staged on the previous night, in Niagara Falls. NEW MARTIN THEATRE THURSDAY-FRIDAY "THE MODERN WIFE' REAL ANGLE OF THE LOVE 3 TRIANGLE!

THE GAME After waiting nearly an hour for the visitors to take the ice the ref- cree started the game, AND THE FUN BEGAN. After two minutes of play "Red" Moore was penalized and the Catar- acts began ragging tactics. Chisnell was the next to be sent off when he made a fine job of tripping Davey. Davey was the next man to be sent off, Meclllwaine scored the first tally on a bullet-like floater which spiralled in the direction of the visitors' net and went between Fishers' skates, who made a brave effort to protect his citadel. After a particular strenuous round, in which Stanislaus Fisher threw "Stranglers" Goal-stick for the first fall, play was held up while his trunks were elevated. Davey drew his second penalty of the game to take the lead, when he gave Moore a hickory-massage. Ken, Randall rapped out a fine "l'exas-Leaguer which almost caught Fisher asleep. He came in fast from centre field to make a fine fumble. Davey went well out in front when he drew an- other penalty. This one was for sending the puck too fast towards the Rel. Ken. Randall made a fine lone tush and after bein~ subjected to numerous toc-holds, and arm-locks, he gave in to a flying-mare and fell just as he was going to drive the disc into the twine, - _ A minute later McLeod made a fine play to even up the score after fifteen minutes of play. Gillie. Gil- more went right back and drilled the rubber past Fisher so fast that he only saw it coming back out, 'The first period was called by the Ref- eree, who must have been out of condition and with Oshawa leading Game Improves a Little In a sensible attempt to improve i the game, Ref.

Lott scored the | next goal on a fine play and pass by Bill Joyce, Twenty seconds later, Joyce scored on a pass from Lott. Ihis made the score 5-1 and the Pats. had scored the three goals in four minutes, Arch Davey scored one ail on his own when he brought the puck out from the corner and netted it care- fully, Joyce hit the goal post for a close-call and the shot was hard. A few minutes before the second period ended, Davey scored the seventh goal on a combined play, Gilmore giving the pass. The second period ended with the score 7-1 for Oshawa. How- ever the game was much better and at least the goalie was making a good try. Pats. Always On Top Oshawa scored a nice goal. but the fans behind the net said "no" and that settled the dispute which arose. LaRoche made a fine effort to score and then Colquhoun took the puck up the ice. LaRoche came back with another try. Kuntz checked Colqu- houn and scored the visitors' second goal, just managing to slip the puck past baught. The Pats. pressed hard but the game was tightening up and the vis- itors were given their goalie good protection. Play was fairly even and both goalies got several hard shots to handle. Oshawa had their lead cut down a little when Davey fell going behind his net. LaRoche got the puck and after bringing it out in front, scored with a backhand flip. The game ended with the score 7-3 and the season was over, The Teams: Oshawa,--Goal, Faught, Defence, Davey and Gilmore, Ceutre, Lott, Wings, Hamel and Joyce, Alternates, Mclllwaine, Stanhope, Colpuhoun and Randall, Niagara Yalls--Goal, Fisher and Chisnell, Defence, Moore and Kesnel, Centre, LaRoche, Wings, McLeod and Lowery, Alternates, Weswick.

Black Hawks | In Final For Stanley Cup New York, April 1. -- The Chi- cago' Black Hawks, backing up their two goals from the first game, put on a close checking und speedy exhibition here last night that sent them into the final round of the Stanley Cup series, defeat- ing the New York Rangers 1-0 and capturing the round in the Nation- al Hockey League eliminations 3-0. Seldom did the Hawks make a sensational drive on the attack. Their speedy forwards, three sets of them, cut loose with a brand of back-checking that tied up the Ranger offensive threats, and add- ed to this was the stellar work of Chuck Cardner in the Hawks' net. This combination proved too much for the Ranger stalwarts and they were held scoreless for the whole 120 minutes of hockey in the ser- es. The Ranger bid as they went down to defeat was a magnificent one. They forced the play from the very start, fought valiantly against relentless back-checking and the cool-headed Gardner. For minutes on end play flashed spec- tacularly behind the Hawks' blue line. Open combination play was out of the question under the checking that the speed demons from Chicago cut loose, and many | TAILORED j SUITS ...... PORT SNAPSHOTQ grORTSIRROTy Hockey is Now Over The hockey season for Oshawa is over. Last night's game with Niagara Falls completed the season for the Oshawa Pats, and although it was a victory for the Pats, it came too late to be of any use to them, Niagara Falls having won the championship by holding the Pats. to a Scorcless tie in the game at Niagara Falls on Monday. So no chanm- pionships have come to Oshawa in hockey this scason. The juniors and intermediates won their groups, but fell down in the playoffs. The Pats. also got into the playoffs, and carried the battle right to the two final games before going down before the Cataracts. So Oshawa had plenty of good hockey, during the season, cven if no champion- ships came this way. * * * * Last Night's Game Although the Pats. won last night by a score of 7 to 3, and played great hockey to do it, the game was far from being all that could be desired. In the first period, it was more or less of a burlesque, with Fisher, in the nets for Niagara IFalls, supplying most of the comedy. Why he was ever allowed to start cannot be understood, as he was ob- viously unfit to play, and the fans did not like his exhibition a bit. Things went better in the sccond and third periods, when he was off the ice, but it was obvious that the Catracts, having won the leaguc title, were not disposed to take the game scriously., Games like hat of last night leave a bad impression in the minds of the fans, who did not like it a bit. * » ® * Professional Hockey in Oshawa Professional hockey has not been a success financially in Oshawa in. its first season. The Pats. started off well, but tailed off badly later in the season, and lost the support of the fans. In the closing games of ,the schedule, they made a great recovery, and went into the play- offs with high hopes. They just failed to annex the championship, but that did not make much difference to the fans, who did not turn out in large numbers for the final game. But, with nothing at stake, that Oshawa another profesgonal te next season, but it will have to make a showing throughout th schedule games to win strong support, Oshawa sports fans are peculiar, in that they will only support a team that is winning games, and this must be recognized by the Sponsors of the professional team it the) intend to operate again next year, L * * * The Stanley Cup Finals Chicago Black IMawks have qualified for the Stanley Cup finals by eliminating the Toronto Maple Leafs and the New York Rangers. On the other side of the bracket, Canadiens and the Boston Bruins have to fight it out for the other place in the finals. So far these two teams are tied, having won two games each, and it i8 anybody's game in the deciding tussle. Whichever, team wins, it! should be a thrilling final series, how that the Black Hawks have recovered the splendid forn eason. For patriot h, but it was not surprising may have better much they showed in the early wecks of the we would like to see the Canadiens come throu be safe to make any definite predictions, " * = Will Winnipeg Get Both Having secured the Memorial Cup and the Dominion ju pionship, Winnipeg has a strangehold on the Allan Cup and the senior championship. The Hamilton Tigers were not at their best in Winnipeg last night, the long train journey having affected their play, and the Winnipeg seniors won by 2 to 1, The second game tomorrow night . should be a thriller, as the Tigers have to win it to even up the series and remain in the running for the Allan Cup, the Dominion title, and the right to represent Canada in the next Olympic Winter Sports. Two games out of three count in this Series, so the O.H.A. champions still have a chance to come back and win the honors, * * * *" Football's Greatest Figure The tragic death of Knute Rockne, coach of the Notre Due Uni- versity football team, has deprived United States football of its greatest coach and its most colorful figure. For thirteen years Rockne was the mentor of the Notre Dame grid teams, and he rolled up a record of Success that has neyer been equalled. News of his death came as a tremendous shock to the sporting world, tor he was known far and wide, and the game will be the poorer by reason of his untimely end. uld hardly or cham- that the wreckage burned proved a Ranger thrust tourncd into a unfounded. free-for-all scramble. Athletics Are Again Favorites New York, April 1.--Connie Mack's "Big Five"--Grove, Earn- shaw, Cochrane, Foxx and Sim- mons--makethe Philadelphia Ath- letics an overwhelming favorite to repeat their American League pen- nant victories of 1929 and 1930. The 'Big Five," regardless 'of the other members of the club, have enough strength and class to make the A's the best bet in the field--such a good bet that "fut- ure book" makers have made the Philadelphia Club a prohibitive favorite at 10 to 7. Barring accidents and the re- mote possibility that Al Simmons fails to come to terms the Ath- letics will open the season with the following line-up: Max Bishop, 2b; Jimmy Dykes, 3b; Mickey Cochrane, c¢; Al Sim- mons, If; Jimmy Foxx. 1b; Bing Miller, rf;.

The bat- tle for Canada's hockey title and the right to wear the maple leaf at the 1932 Olympics is a two-of- three-game series. A rousing rally in the last half of the final period threatened to snatch impressive triumph from the willing Manitobans. The Tig- ors rose from lethargic cautious- ness of 50 minutes and fought ten minutes of pressing, daring, go- getting hockey. They cut drown the Pegs' lead from two to only one, but could not notch the equal- izing score. Until disorganized by an un- looked-for recovery of the Tigers in the last period, the Winnipeg- gers held sway by speed alone. They sent Howis Marsh, Hamilton net man, sprawling to the ice time and again to save from flourishing attacks. And their back-checking speed held the Tigers in their own end for most of the game, unable to attack three abreast. Pegs scored once in the first period, again in the second, and Tigers counted their lone goal in the third. Sturdy Romeo Rivers, left winger, sent the Pegs ahead when he hoisted a shot into the net after Vic Lindquist had thread- ed through the Tigers only to be foiled by Marsh. "Tick" Garbhutt, wiry relief centre, hooked the next goal from behind the net as Marsh was flattened in a scramble. Protest on Garbutt's goal de- layed the game for several min- utes, Referee Alex. Irvin, Win- nipeg, ruled the goal was legal, although the goal judge expressed doubts that the puck had crossed the line. Harry Watson, Toronto, the other official handling the game, stated his view of the play had been obscured by a. player. Gonie McGowan, clever Hamile ton goal with less than three min- utes left to go. He batted his own rebound into the cage after =a three-man Tiger rally.
