DON HUNT Canadian Press Staff Writer Montreal, April 19--(CP)--If it wasn't for a grey-haired gent named Art Childs, Ottawa Senators today would be in the driver's seat in the Eastern Canada senior hockey final. Childs, goalkeeper for Hamilton Tigers, stopped the Ottawa scoring attack cold here Saturday night to give Tigers a 4-1 triumph in the third game of the Allan Cup semi- | finals. Hamilton leads the best-of- | five series 2-1. The scene now shifts to Toron. | to for the fourth game Tuesday. A victory for Tigers will put them in the Allan Cup finals against Ed- | monton Flyers, the first game to be | played in Regina, April 24. If Sen. ators win, the fifth and deciding | game will be played in Ottawa. Outplayed most of the way Sat- urday, Hamilton made good use of | their limited scoring chances, net- | ting tow goals in the first frame | and ane each in the second and third. Senators lone tally came late in the middle session. Trio Paces Attack Hamilton's first-string Clare Shillington, Tommy and Johnny Conick paced their sco- ring attack with a goal apiece. Shil- lington and Conick also picked up a pair of assists each. Swat Mason, aging Tiger forward, notched the fourth counter. Eddie Emberg, aggressive Ottawa trio: of | Smelle | playma..:=, potted Senators' lone oal. The Ontario champions, vaulted into an early lead when Shilling. ton slapped a loose puck past Legs Fraser from 20 feet out at 4.20. Tigers made it 2-0 with only 30 seconds left to play on Johnny Con. ick's goal. : Tigers played cagey hockey early in the middle canto, waiting for the breaks. Their first opportunity came at 6.33 and they made good use of it, Smelle deflecting Johnny Conick's blueline drive into the op- en corner of the net. Senators Hit Net Trailing 3-0, the Quebéc chathp- ions finally hit the score sheet at 16.01 while Mason was sitting out a slashing penalty. Emberg lifted a loose puck ---2r Childs who was flat on the ice. Mason scored the only goal of a dull third period batting in Frank Liscombe's pass with less than four minutes to play.

EXECUTIVE TURNS THUMBS DOWN ON PLAYER CONTRACT IDEA Tcronto, April 19--(CP)--Ontario Hockey Association executive turn- ed thumbs down on a special play- er contract proposed by President George Panter at an executive meeting here Saturday. Panter drafted the wording of the contract, a variation of the one suggested by National Hockey Lea. gue President Clarence Campbell, to carry' notice of O.H.A. intention about it to the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association meeting here this week. Campbell Suggests Campbell had suggested to the C.AH.A., tl.at its senior players sign a contract binding them to one club. If a player from any club was taken. up by an NHL. team, the amateur team would receive $5,000 from the N.H.L, If taken up by an American Hockey League team it would receive $3,500 and a smaller sum from any lesser professional league. The $31,000 which the N.-H.L. now grants the C.AH.A. would not be given under these conditions. Majority of the Senior A and Jun- ior A club delegates expressed fear that their young athletes would be regarded as professionals. Seniors Against It All senior teams represented, Kit. chener, Owen Sound, Hamilton, Stratford and the Northern Ontario Hockey Association, represented by President Max Silverman, voted against acceptance in principle of the suggestion, Junior clubs were undecided on merits of adopting the contract, with four in favor four against, one undecided and two not represented. In favor were Windsor, Oshawa, Guelph and the N.OH.A. Opposed were Stratford, Barrie St. Catharines and Toronto Young Rangers. Galt was undecided and did not vote, while Toronto Marl- boros and Toronto St. Michael's were not represented. Objections One of the objections to the con- tract was that the teams might be regarded as professionals and sub- ject to the federal 20 per cent amusement tax. "I\ was going to suggest that I thi: there is reasonable hope we might be able to pay a 10 per cent tax to the provincial government on tickets over 50 cents and let this be applied to hospitalization or some other worthy cause," said Panter. "I've repeatedly said you are not being forced to accept this con- tract," he added. "Clubs which wish to can use it, others are not com- peiled to do so. It is merely a matter of standardizing things so that clubs and players are protected." In the proposed contract, teams would pay a player so much per week or find "fair and reasonable employment." EDMONTON OUSTS "PEG WEST FINAL Edmonton, April 19--(CP)-- Ed- monton Flyers will represent the West in Canada's senior hockey playoffs for the Allan Cup against Hamiiton Tigers or Ottawa Sena- tors. The Albertans earned the honor Saturday by defeating Winnipeg Flyers 3-2, their fourth straight vic- tory after an opening game loss in a best-off-seven series for the wes- tern senior championship. It was a hard game for the vast- ly-improved Manitobans to lose. Be- hind 3-0 midway through the géme, they scored a goal in each of the second and third periods, waging an all-out but unavailing offensive in the final frame. Bing Merluk scored twice for the winners, Doug Lane adding the third. Paul Platz, flown from Win- nipeg for the Edmonton fixtures, scored botla Winnipeg goals. Winnipeg's only triumph in the | series was a 2-0 shutout in the open- ing game. Subsequent encounters | showed the Manitobans sadly out- | classed by 8-4, 7-3 and 11-0 counts. Winnipeg netminder Hal Thomp- son was injured late in the second period, He twisted his back diving for a loose puck and aggravated an earlier injury. He was replaced by | Lionel Wright. Lane opened the scoring in the | first period with a waisthigh, 40-foot | drive on a pass from Morey Rim- stad. Merlu added the second on a | pass from Doug Anderson early in| the next, while midway through the same second he scored again after Platz had been penalized for board- ing him. Platz returned in the same per- iod to score from a scramble while Edmonton's Bud MacPherson was off for boarding. Platz scored again in the third period on a brilliant rush.

FISH "LOSE FACE" Hong Kong -- (CP) -- Chinese customers consider headless fish unlucky and will not buy them from. fish stores. Recently import- ers here had to destroy a large con- signment of headless fish because the exporters had cut off the fish- | es' heads. Vogel and Crane Top Contenders Boston Marathon Boston, April I™<(ABy=%eorced to the wall, marathon experts pre- dicted that the 52nd Boston Ath, letic Association marathon toda would be a two-man duel betwee such youngesters as Ted Vogel of Tufts College, National Amateur Athletic Union champion, and Tom Crane of Springfield. But there are 190 others down to start, including several Cana- dians and three former winners, and at least a half-dozen of them rated as serious contenders. Vogel Finishes Vogel, who apparently was an Olympic team assignment clinched --he was the first American to finish last year behind the 2:59:39 record-smashing Yun Bok Suh of Koreau, and Finland's Mikko Hiet- anen--looms as this cruel race's standout. But Crane, on his recent form, appears to be among the most like: ly threats, along with such experi- enced plodders as Gerry Cote of St. Hyacinthe, Que., a three-time winner, Luis Valesquez of Guate- mala, and Wang Chen. Ling, the Chinese marathon titlist from Shanghai. Ontaric Entries Oswald Kisson of Toronto and Bill Memmott of Galt were two of the latest entries. A 51-year-old Windsor postman, Percy Such, will be wearing Cana- dian colors for the second time in this classic. Doctors say Percy is in perfect shape. A veteran of the first and the second world wars he has trained for long distance running all his life. ' He found the marathon's rough roads and steep hills a tough grind last year and finished the race in "about three hours and 15 min- utes," Memmott, Galt's lone entry in the marathon is 34 and of the dogged type of a galloper. Noth- ing stylish, he has never been known to quit race. Enlists Early He was just getting nicely into the running game when the war broke out and he enlisted in 1940. He captured a number of races in army sports overseas, including a marathon and then set a 10-mile record at an imperial army meet, While overseas he competed in races in England, Scotland, Hol- land, Belgium and France and brought home a number of medals. Since his return he has been teaming up with Scotty Rankine and Ab Morton, two of Ontario's outstanding. distance runners who are pointing for an Olympic trip and re concentrating on Canadian meets. Another Entry Regarding one of the foremost prospects for the marathon sec- tion of Canada's Olympic track team this year, Walter Fedorick, Hamilton Olympic Club distance star, also has entered today's race. Athlete In Action For weeks he has been running ro Daphne Robb (above) is shown distancessof from nifie to 25 miles three and four times each week, continuing even through severe weather.
