This official kept away from the Niagara Falls dressing room after the first period and did not even approach Secretary "Pat" Paterson for his money. Each team is obliged to pay half of the referee‘s fee, so evidently Harvey ~was > well satisfied with the half (?) received from Belleville. At any rate he cerâ€" tainly earned his money, whatever he got. For someâ€" reason, , probably modesty, Harvey did rot want to be interviewed after the game. , He hurried from the rink to the hotel and even had his meal sent to his room. One instance of Sproule‘s rawness, rawness, which, in itself, robbedâ€" the Falls team of victory on the round, was this: After the play had been stopped by the referee‘s bell, Arnott, the Belleville centre man, picked the puck up in his hand and threw it in the net. Even the Belleville fans took this stunt as a joke, but Mr. Sproule allowed it to count as a goal and :;face;d the puck off at centre ice.

Only three penalties were awarded and the play was exceptionally fast for local hockey. Fleur Marsh "Grimsby, Ont., Feb. 25.â€"Niagara Falls O.H.A. hockey team trimmed Belleville last night in one of the most spectacular and exciting games of the season in the new $33,000 arena here. ‘The two teams were. almost perfectly matched and there was no money favorite at the first gong. Mayo played a wonderful game at goal and Bawtenheimer and Degray were prime factors in the 6â€"4 victory which puts the Falls in a two point lead in the semiâ€"finals of the O.H.A. Whalen and Arnott starred for Belleville. The Grimsby rink was in perfect ~condiâ€" tion and the tiers of seats were filled with some 2,500 cheering fans. A special train of ten cars carried the 800 Falls rooters to Grimsby and reâ€" turned immediately after the game. All Grimsby turned out to the game. The arena is owned by stockholders of the town and has a seating capacâ€" ity of 2,400 with an ice surface ‘of 70 by 170 feet. $ $ To the second that the final gong went it was hard to predict which team would be the winner. Line up: Grimsby Fast Smithville Urquhart Morningstar 2â€"0 in favor of the visitors. In the second period the play was so evenly balanced that néither team was able to get a chance to score but in the final period the local sextéette speeded up, Bonham and Strong both making a tally.

C. H. L. on Saturday evening by a small margin, beating Beamsville 3â€"2. This game brought fans from all over the countryside and as a result a good crowd witnessed the game. The game had been in progress twelve minutes before an opening occurred for either team to score. Hamilton after a rush managed to get the puck by Daw giving Beamsville the advantâ€" age of having the score 1â€"0 in their favor at the end of â€"the first period. During the second period the Huntâ€" erites scored three goals, keeping the play pretty much in the Beamsville territory. Gibson the Beamsville goal tender received a bad injury when he tried to stop a high one and caught the puck on the foreâ€"head. The gong went just after he was injured leayâ€" ing the score at the end of the second period 3â€"1 for Grimsby East. The last period opened with Moore in the nets for Beamsvyille. The play was very even during the last round but Shepâ€" herd broke through and scored on the rebound. The game became rough toâ€" wards the end and penalties were gen erously handed out. Game finished 3â€"2 Grimsby EHast. The scrappy, speedy lads from the snow and ice bound north, under the management of the famous Jerry Laâ€" Flamme will show the natives of the Fruit Belt how the ‘game is played up in the mining country. This team has been considered for years, one of the best exponents of Canada‘s winter game that has ever been gathered toâ€" gether. Up north they play in the senâ€" ior division of the Northern Ontario Hockey Association and their games with the Greyhounds from the Canadâ€" ian Soo have always been watched with interest by all lovers of hockey in all parts of Onatrio. Twice in the past four years the Wolves have been champions of their league and have been contenders for the Allan â€" Cup. They carry on their lineâ€"up men whose names have become household words throughout all Ontario, they being, "Red" Green, "Shorty" Green, Langâ€" lois, Boucher, Rothchild and others. The fair fans seem to be strong for Strong. "Oh! Mabel did you note his agility?. So slender and yet so graceâ€" ful. I wonder if he is married"?, seem to be the most prominent of their comâ€" ments.

Three stitches were necessary to reâ€" pair the damege. Many fans are still unconvinced as to which is the best team, Belleville or the. Falls. The Niagara boys trimmed Belleville by two goals in Grimsby and were defeated by two goals in Belleville. Even Steven. In the sudden death playâ€"off in Toronto the Falls won 5â€"4 in ten minutes overâ€" time. A pretty evenly matched pair of teams we would say. AT a meeting of the executive of the L. C. H. L. on Saturday, Urquhart the latest addition to the Grimsby East lineâ€"up was declared to be inâ€" eligible. As a result of this ruling the Grimsby East team must forfeit the two games in which he played. Dave Hunter, manager of the team will formally protest this decision on the grounds that not a full vote was taken and that Urquhart is eligible under the rules of the League. Managers of the many hockey teams are having their troubles these days. Hardly a team in the L. C. H. L. that cannot report some players out of action on account of illness. Some big bets were made on the reâ€" sult of the round between the Falls and Belleville, which the Power City boys won 16â€"15. The editor of this paper was the custodian of $600 for several days awaiting the final decisâ€" ion. A Falls man laid $200 even against a like amount of Belleville dough and a Hamilton man bet $100 even on the Falls to trim â€" Belleville. It was hard to part with the six hundred berries, but it had to be done. In the Grimsby vs Mountain game of Saturday night both the goal keepâ€" ers were Fishers, Wray presiding in the Mountain net and "Wally" in his usual place for the Pill Pounders. â€" Hockey fans in this district lost a lot of sleep last week worrying over the Bellevilleâ€"Falls game in Belleville and the sudden death playâ€"off in Toâ€" ronto.

Mark St. John had a./ special telephone line arranged for and his cigar store was packed both nights with eager fans awaiting the results of each period of play. Mayo‘s fame as a goesl keeper is not merely local. A Cleveland paper last week had the following tribute for Niagara‘s little wizard.

He has been playing the game fourteen years and is playâ€" ing his best hockey this year." Fleur the Jeft wing of Grimsby East received a nasty cut on the forehead which required four stitches to repair while practicing Monday morning.
