After a hard season and certain of keeping his title, Edwards decided to slow in the stretch where he had a comfortable lead of 33 yards and was clocked in 2.117. His opponents, as those of Wil- liams, staged a hot battle for sec- ond place, Murray Goldfish of the Millrose A.A. edging out Ken Smith New York A.C.

In fact, the Blue were given mighty uneas evening as Queen's came from behind in the later bouts to get within striking distance.

It was an un- interesting game and there was lit- tle good hockey shown by either side, both teams showing a tend- ency to bunch In centre ice and there were only occasional flashes of combination play and in this the Bowmanville team's efforts were the moa# successful, Belleville counted both of its goals in the first period and ap- peared to be headed for victory but persistent back-checking by the visitors spoiled many of their ef- forts and they were unable to beat James in the last two periods, James played a perfect game in the visitors' net, undoubtedly sav- ing his team when he turned aside a number of close-in shots and the Maroons found him .a stumbling block throughout, Bowen in the Belleville goal was also in good form and it was really the work of the net guardians that was the re- deeming feature of the game, Whalen was the outstanding man on the ice and scored both of Belle- ville's goals, He twisted a liga- ment and was forced to retire from the game early in the third period, his absence weakening the Maroons, Cameron was the pick of the visitors and accounted for all three goals, The three counters were the result of daring thrusts on the part of the Bowmanville player, Moise also turned in a good game, Whalen's two goals in the first period were hard shots from the wing, James being completely fool- ed on both drives, The visitors scored once in the middle session and added two more in the last period, Though faced with a one goal de- fieit, the Belleville team are confi. dent that they can trim the rubber town team at home in the return fixture on. Monday night, The teams: Belleville--Goal, Bowen; de- fence, Rooney and Green; centre, Hibbard; wings, Whalen and Shen- sel; subs, Weir and Hagerman, Bowmanville--Goal, James; de- fence, Densem and Osborne; cen- tre, Moise; wings, McMullen and Cameron; subs Rundle and Turner, area Mollenhauer, Toron- 0, OTTAWA SENATORS WIN IN OVERTIME Pittsburg, Pa, " Feb, 18--The Ot- tawa Senators took the measure of the Pittsburg Pirates here, Saturday night, in a seventy minute National Hockey league eficounter, The score was 2-1, the final marker coming with but 3 'minute and 30 seconds left to play in the extra frame, on a shot 'that Miller did not have a chance to stop, Kilrea, who was outstanding throughout, fooled the Pirate defence, flipped to Finnigan and the Ottawa winger had no one to beat, Darragh sent the Pirates into the lead in the second frame on a pass from Lowrey but this advantage was short lived, the Senators tying it up within three minutes, Touhey caging on a Kilrea pass.
