Campbell | Georgetown Raiders defeated Markham Millionaires 1-0 here on Saturday night before a crowd of almost 4,000 cash customers. At "one buck per head," that constitutes perhaps the biggest "gate" ever ign in for a hockey game, at the Oshawa Arena, and it was one of he tightest displays of wide-open hockey we've seen in years. 'They play it 1-0 until less than two minutes left to play in the third period when Gibson of Georgetown got the only goal, a deflected shot that struck the goalie's stick and caromed into. the net. The work of. Forbes a Harper, rival goalies was strictly in the sensational class, especially Fo 'of Georgetown. He was terrific 'throughout and while his mates may the full 60 minutes, he agg gamed shutout. Georgetown had more left in the last 10 or 15 utes of me game--and that's how they won. Markham could have had a three- goal lead at least in the initial stanza but Messrs. Nesbitt 3 times him- self) along with Milroy, Bangay and some others glorious ct 5 after having the goalie out of the net. It was brilliant hockey an despite the entire lack of goals for 58 minutes, it was still played at a torrid pace and in wide-open style. The Tans loved it too! * LJ . In this liar series, Georgetown now leads the 4-out-of-7 games Bose map milion having won both of their victories on Markham's "home ice" (here in Oshawa) while the Millionaires blanked the Raiders 4-0 at Georgetown. They play again tonight up in Georgetown, fourth game of the finals for the Inter. "A" OHA title. They were booked to play back here on Wednesday night for the fifth game but of course, that's out now, with the skating show here tomorrow and Wednesday. The fifth game of the series will likely be played here in Oshawa on Thursday night--which will keep the Arena staff "touching all the bases" after the carnival ends Wednesday night, in order to have good ice ready for Thursday's game. They a couple of train-loads of fans here from George- town and the rival towns are getting quite hot on their favorites in this hectic series. Incidentally--they're rolling up a mighty fine bank balance apiece also and the split at the end of the season will likely lift the Inter. "A" champs out of the "amateur" bracket--if the truth was told. L J L 2 'p They set the stage for the' Stanley Cup finals, over the week-end and cleaned up the semi-final decks. Ted Kennedy / red the winning goal for Toronto Leafs after Kennie Smith had tied if up for Boston at 2-2. Kennedy's goal proved the final tally for Toronto's 3-2 victory and that ended the series and ousted Boston for the season, four games to one. In the other bracket, Detroit Red Wings won a 4-2 verdict right in New York to eliminate the Rangers in their semi-final series. "Red" Kelley, ex-St. Mike's Junior defense star, shone in the Detroit win with the first goal and assists on the next two tallies, to give Wings a 3-0 lead in the first period. Raleigh.scored both goals for Rangers. Now, as expected, Leafs and Wings will clash for the Stanley Cup--and Leafs will do what they've never done before, finish in first place and then win the 'Stanley Cup in the same season. * * * - George Izatt, young married man who came here to play defense with the Oshawa Generals this season and suffered a nasty broken arm (in five places) in a game early in the season, November, to be exact, was back in Oshawa on Saturday night. He finally has hjs arm out of a cast, after having lugged a plaster job all winter. He still had it in a sling on Saturday but they expect to find the arm "OK" when they tdke another X-ray picture today and he'll be able to start the long job of getting his arm back in shape.

"A" | Miiroy Finals--Thrills Galore |vLawri As Rival Players Miss Open Nets and Both Goalies Perform In Sensational Style period of a scoreless hockey game before a packed house. Both teams playing wide open hockey, the style that keeps the audience in a cénti- nuous uproar. That was the game here Saturday night. between Markham Millionaires and George- town Raiders. It was the Raiders who got the break in that last two minutes of play and it was the Raiders who took home a 1-0 victory, along with a 2-1 lead in games in the OHA Intermediate "A" final series. Markham Start Well The first 20 minutes of this spectacular battle saw the Mark- ham Millionaires turn. on the heat, going all out for a goal. The Geor- getown squad played the other way, waiting back in their own zone for | possession of the puck and when | they had it, ripping down the ice to test Harper in the Millionaires' nets. In a game of this type, a minor penalty could mean the game, and the first of these went to Binsell of Georgetown. He caught it for trip- ping. Lawrie, Milroy and Watson were the attacking trio sent out by the Markham coach, and they stormed the bastion of Rhodes in the Raid- er's twine time and again, but he held fast. The tables were almost turned then when Patterson led the Raid- ers on a two man break toward the Millionaires' goal. He flipped the puck over after he had faked the goalie out -of position. His team- mate however let the puck roll off the end of his stick, and the chance was lost. * Miss Great Chances Watson of Markham got, the gate soon after that, and it was George- town's turn to take the offensive. The same thing occurred as did the first time, Bangay and Nesbitt showed how to get the puck on breakaways, and within one minute of the othér Nesbitt got in the clear and deked the goalie out. His flip shot, which he could have taken lots of time, to make sure of both times, was way off the mark, dnd so Markham passed up some glorious chances for victory. The second period was a perfect cast of the first, and the way the teams "were playing, they could have been at it yet. Two penalties were handed out in this middle frame also. One to each side as in the first period. Gibson of Georgetown got the first, and. Fred Scott of Markham the second. While there were many close calls in the middle frame, it was Milroy of Markham who supplied the closest of the night. He roared in, pulled the goalie aside and shot for. the short corner. His drive caught the goal-post, and the puck rolled lazily along the goal-line from.one post to the other, and refused to go in. The third period provided more thrills, as the squads realized that one goal could very well win the game. Play was very fast, and from one end to the other. The defence started to get hep with the hip, and not a few of the attackers ended up in the corner, riding out the seat of their pants. Raiders Put On Pressure Georgetown then got hot. They ripped and tore through the Mark- ham team, testing Harper from all angles, but he seemed unbeatable. There were three minutes left in the game when another power play by the Raiders was begun. The puck was shot into the corner, and all forwards broke over the blue-line, Beaumont got it in the right-hand corner, passed it quickly behind the net to Storey in the left-hand corner, who in turn flipped in front of the bewildered and beseiged Harper. Gibson was standing in front of the net when that puck came out from the corner, and it was he through some means still not czar, who got the puck into the net. His slap deflected the puck off the goalies stick and it rolled over the ne. Markham had to go all out now. With less than a minute to play, and Georgetown leading 1-0 they took Harper out of the nets and put on four forwards. These tactics failed to bring the gested result, and the game ended MARKHAM--Goal, Harper; de- fence, B. Baker, A, Baker; centré, Bangay; wings, Nesbitt, Stark, Alts, A . Lawrie, Watson, PF.

Rockets Out, Halifax Play Montreal Now Ottawa, April ,4--(CP)--Smocth, polished play-making Halifax St. Mary's Saturday advanced into the Fastern Canada semi-finals of the Memorial Cup playoffs by over. powering Inkerman Rockets 8-5 in the fourth game of their best-of- five series. Halifax tock the "series 3.1 and now meet Montreal Nat- ionales. Showing a complete reversal of form from Wednesday night's en. counter here, St. Mary's fought a hard back-checking game and seiz- ed the opportunities to build up their lead on numerous breakaways. The fast.skating Rockets, who fought their way back into the Me- morial Cup contention Wednesday by walloping the classy Halifax squad 6-2, werex caught flat-footed many times. Bert Hirschfield, St. Mary's pivot- man, sparked the Halifax drive with three goals, oné in the initial per. iod and two in the final frame. Gor. don Duggan scored a pair, one unas- sisted. Hugh Campbell, Doug Burns and Doug McNeill rounded out the Halifax scoring. Inkerman's counters came from the ticks of Erwin and Edwin Dun- con, Leo Boivin, Bob Lundy and Frank Whittaker. Inkerman played without the ser. vices of Hugh (Rip) Ricpelle, tricky centreman. Riopelle was bencheg after a protest by St. Mary's. The Halifvx team claimed he was in- eligible for junior hockey on the grounds that he played more than three games with the Ottawa Army team in the senior league.

Montreal, April 5--(CP) -- The proposedi$l.a-year-fee for all mem- bers of provincial golf bodies asso= ciated with the Royal Canadian Golf Association was received coldly by the province of Quebec Golf As- sociation here. President J. A. Blondeau said be- fore retiring as head of the Quebec Association last week that the P. Q.G.A. had the most sound finan. cial status of all the provincial or- ganizations in Canada and he thought it would be unwise for the association to adopt this plan until it had shown what benefit it would be to the provincial body. Paul (Le Canada) Parizeau ap- proyes of Blondeau's suggesiion that Quebec members should wait "a few weeks" before taking a de. cision. "Not that we oppose the proposed plan, but we kelieve it fair and lo* gical that the cards be laid on the table so that each ene knows the real meaning of the project," writes Parizeau, He explains that the P.Q.G.A. be. ing the largest body cf iis kind in { Canada, Quebec Province will be | subscribing more than it will get {out of the scheme. He adds: "For those who can read between the lines, it is clear that the prov- incial asscciation does not intexd to serve as a milch cow for the R.C.C. At."

DUMSDAY Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, April 5--(CP)--Maybe the official scorer should give Can- ada's highly.secret uranium re- searclr plant ar assist for sending Toronto Maple Leafs into profes. sional hockey' world series. Three brothers from Chalk River seem to bring the Stanley Cup champions a lot of luck. The youngsters--Meeker by name and termed a "fine sample of young Canada" by Leaf Boss Conn Smythe --were here Saturday night when brother Howie started the explos- ive third-period attack which esent the Boston Bruins down to defeat and out of the playoffs. The Leafs have never lost any time Ken, Chuck and Tom Meeker have been in the stands. They came from their research-town home Saturday night and with 14,460 fans saw their older brother make the play for Ted Kennedy's payoff goal- mouth counter. Said 14-year-old Tom: "To the Leafs' enemies we're just like the atomic bomb." To win the fifth game of the best- of_seven series the Leafs came from behind. They were outplayed much of the way but sheer fight around the Boston goal gave them the right to meet Detroit Red Wings in the cup finals. The Wings qualified Sun. day night by beating New York Rangers 4-2 for their fourth win in six games. Kennedy's marker was his sixth one goal from the all-time Toronto playoff scoring record which he shares with Gordie Drillon and Buzz Boll. He's headed for matrimony this summer and Tedder would like to establish a new high as a wed. ding gift for his bride. Boston Manager Weston Adams thought the Bruins were outlucked but he visited the Toronto dressing room and told rookie Les Costello: | "A great series, I hope you go all the way."

The Bruins went down fighting after Jimmy Peters sent them in front early in the game on a play with Ken Smith. They went into the last period on even terms when Smith scored after the Bruins hem- med the Leafs behind their own blue-line for a full minute. Milt Schmidt, Boston's great cap- tain, rubbed a painful charley-horse and predicted the extra game and rest would give the Leafs an edge in their cup.defence round. With two goals and five assists, the 30- year-old centre led Boston's drive despite evere leg injuries which forced him to hobble after the first period Saturday night. Boston's loss continued the jinx which has followed them on Toron. to ice since Nov. 2, 1946, date of their last victory here. Their big chance faded in the first series game when they blew a two-goal lead with only eight minutes play remaining.

Red Wings Trim Homer Len "Red" Kelly Hot Again, Scores One and "Assists on Two Others -- Don Raleigh Tallies Both Blueshirt Mark- ers By NORMAN ALTSTEDTER Canadian Press Staff Writer New York, April 5--(CP) -- The rookies stole the show when Detroit Red Wings last night pushed their way into the final round of the Nat. ional Hockey League's Stanley Cup playoffs by battering the bruised New York Rangers 4.2. Leo (Red) Kelly, a long-limbed redhead who was playing defence only last year for the junior Toron- to St. Michael's hockey team, led the yelping Detroit pack with a goal and two assists. For the Rangers, Don Raleigh, a 22_year-old Kenora, Ont., first-year man, tallied twice in the last 10 minutes to save New York from a shutout. The Rangers previously had lost only one playoff game of the 13 they had played in Madison Square Garden, where a crowd of 15,925 turned out to see the home team drop the sixth game of the best- of_seven series. Detroit thus won the semi-final round four games to two. Another rookie who' is a main- Toronto Maple Leafs in the final round is Jim McFadden whose tally off the goal post early in the third period gave the Red Wings a 4-0 lead and fattened his series' scoring honors to a total of four goals and two assist. He was the top goal-get- mate Pete Horeck's six points.

It was while yet another neophyte was in the penalty box that Ran- gers' sparkle of the first 10 minutes of play, was squelched. Kelly sank a 50-fcot drive which caromed in off the goal post while Jack Lan- cien was off for holding. Less than a minute later, Gordon Howe, the only scorer ,with previous playoff experience, slipped the puck past Claude (Chuck) Rayner. Rayner made 28 saves ccmpared to 20 for Harry Lumley in the Detroit cage. Another ' Ranger dampener was the loss after the first period of Captain Neil Colville, who was forc- ed to retire when an old groin in- jury was aggravated. And the Ran. gers were playing without the serv. ices of the sterling defencemen Bill Moe and Frank Eddolls.
