the tribune stouffville out twrday april 22 19 gl 7y sa tmoatas j four games to two it takks a good team to lose the montreal canadiens could have been taught a good lesson in sportsmanship had they been able to witness the conclusion of the bitterl contested series between the oshawa truckmen and stouffville clippers at the final whistle the i stouffville players with one accord skated over to congratulate their victorious opponents and wish them the best of luck in their battle for the senior silverware without a doubt it cer- i tainly takes a good team to win but it takes an equally good team to lose and act in a sportsmanlike manner the stanley cup i playoff which concluded recently was marred by the unsports manlike conduct of the defeated montreal canadiens only one member of the
