Cheered by a hometown crowd of 12,646, Marlboros went onto the ice driving Thursday night and never let up for a second and they trounc- ed the injury-riddled Quebec cham- pions and deadlocked the best-of- seven series at two wins apiece. Fifth game is scheduled for To- ronto Saturday night with the sixth In Ottawa Monday and a seventh, if necessary, back in Toronto Wed- nesday. Stocky Howie Harvey, heir-ap- parent to Turk Broda of Toronto Maple Leafs, was outstanding in the Marlboro nets, It was his second straight shut out on home ice against the Senators, who downed Marlboros in two straight games in Ottawa after Toronto won the op- ener. 5-0 here last week. Blair Gets Two Chuck Blair young right winger, and Johnny McLelland, rangy for- ward, spearheaded the Toronto at- tack. Each got two goals and an assist. Other Toronto scorers were Johnny McCormack, Hugh Bolton and Scotty Mair. Senators, playing without Butch Stahan and Conny Tudin, also had two injured players in uniform. Eddie Emberg played with a broken left hand and Bobby Copp had a broken thumb. The listless Senators played loosely and all three Toronto goals in the first period were the results of poor Senator checking in front of their own net. Marlboros added another in the second period and three more in the final 20 minutes. : The hard driving and close check- ing by the rugged Toronto team saw two brief fist fights, both in the second (period. Flash Hollett and Bill Robinson tangled in one and a few minutes later, Al Buch- anan and Emile Dagenais traded punches.

MAYFAIR LANES 39 CELINA -- PHONE 2166 WHEAT KINGS WIN ANOTHER, NEED ONEMORE Brandon, Man., April 22 (CP)-- Brandon Wheat Kings today are within one game of making a 17- year-old dream come true -- gain- ing a Western Canada junior hoc- key title for the Wheat City. Thursday night the Wheaties walloped Calgary Buffaloes 5-2 to take a commanding 3-1 lead in games in their best-of-seven series for the Abbott Cup and the right to meet Montreal Royals in the Canadian final, Not since 1932-33, when Turk Broda, now goaltender of the Stan- ley Cup champion Toronto Maple Leafs, played junior hockey for Brandon, has the Wheat City iced such a strong aggregation. That year, Brandon was beaten in the Western final by Regina. Now odds-on favorites to wind up the series here Saturday night the Wheat Kings again displayed a powerful defence aggregation and brilliant goal keeping. It was through the terrific work of goalie Ray Frederick and his defencemen that Brandon came back to win the second and third games at Calgary 4-1 and 5-3 after dropping the opener 3-1. Coach Lorne Carr, trying to find a winning combination, juggled his line-up by placing the inexperienced Jimmy Rea in goal in place of Bob Bartlett, and yanked defepceman Cal Oughton in favor of Stu Cruickshank. The moves proved ineffective as Rea seemed jumpy and Cruickshank sat out Buffs only two penalties, one of which set up Brandon for a goal. Jack McKenzie, tall right winger, bagged two goals for the Wheaties, while Frank King, Bryan Roche and Walt Pawlyshyn got the others.

Toronto, April 22.--(CP) -- The hockey season is thundering out on the last lap. In about a month, Canada's na- tional game, (it's lacrosse, in case you didn't know) will be starting out on another season and last year's Mann Cup champions, Ham- ilton Tigers, are already on the hustel for new material. They don't intend to give up their crown with- out a struggle, reports Tommy (Hamilton Spectator) Moore. Says Tommy, "Local officials ex- pect to land four new men to gd to the crew that captured the award in 1948 (and) Joe Cheevers will re- turn as bench coach." The ambitious city is also groom- ing its entry in the Ontario Rugby Football Union, says Tommy. "The Tigers executive came up with the announcement that Murray Griffin would be over-all coach and do his master minding from the bench; Merle Hapes will look after the backfield and Sam Bras- inski will be the line coach." From Ted (Toronto Telegram) Reeve comes a bit of advice for the puck trust. "One criticism we would give of the hockey people is that they do not make enough out of their Stan- ley Cup finals," says Ted. "The clans do not gather the way they should for this world series of In the baseball classic, old stars of the diamond ' and the managers of all the other | teams turn up for the reunion.

Cincinnati, doomed by the ex- "| perts to finish in the cellar, is the only unbeaten team in the National League. The poor, old beat-up New York Yankees, supposedly hobbled by the loss of Joe Dimaggio and others, are out front in the American bagene. die Dyer's St. Louis Cardinals still hadn't won a game and the powerhouse Beston Red Sox had to resort to bases on balls to break in- to the victory column. An Old Custom Bucky Walters, starting his first fill year as Cincinnati manager, followed the old custom of pitching lefthanders against the Cardinals. As usual, it worked. Following up Kenny Raffens- berger's opening day performance, Walters called on another lefty, John Vander Meer, Tuesday. The 33-year-old veteran responded with a five-hit 5-0 shutout. Hank Sauer and Jimmy Bloodworth hit homers, each with a man on base. The Yankees' replacements came through to give manager Casey Stengel a third straight victory ov- er Washington 2-1. Johnny Lin- dell, playing DiMaggio's old spot in centre field, started the winning rally against Forrest Thompson with a single in the last of the ninth. After an error, Hank Sauer, Charley Keller's sub in left field, came through with a game-ending double. Goes the Route Tommy Byrne, a regular starting pitcher for the first time, went the route. He allowed five hits, includ- ing a homer by Buddy Lewis. Cleveland Thumped St. Louis 8-2 with the help of homers by Larry Doby and Joe Gordon. Steve Gro- mek pitched a two-hitter. Home runs by Jack Graham and Dick Ko- kos in the fifth ruined his shut- out bid. Boston Red Sox untracked them-' selves to salvage the finale of their series with Philadelphia A's. It was a scoreless battle between Phil Marchildon of Penetanguishene, ont, and Mel Parnell until the ninth. Two walks with the bases loaded and a single by Parnell gave the Sox their final 4-0 margin. Chicago finally stopped Johnny Groth's home-run splurge, trim- ming Detroit 5-2. Three White Sox pitchers held Groth to one single in two official times at bat. He al- so walked once and was hit by How- ie Judson, the winning pitcher, be- fore he was knocked out in the seventh. In the National, Brooklyn lost to New York Giants, 4-1. Homers by Sid Gordon and Mickey Livingston, each with a man on, account for all the runs with Clint Hartung turning in a neat four-hit job. Bob Scheffing hit a two-run homer in the eighth for Chicago's 4-3 edge over Pittsburgh. Boston Braves and Phillies were not scheduled. . Regina 11-6; Ties Up Western Capitals Find Going Plenty Fast As Can- ucks Stage Another Series Comeback Regina Coach Sweeney Schriner Says His Boys "Just Went Crazy" By ERWIN FRICKE Canadian Press Staff 'Writer Regina, April 22--(CP)-- Few of the 4,500 spectators who saw Fort Frances Canadians humble Regina Capitals 11-6 Thursday night will doubt that the amazing, back-to- the-wall outfit has a chance to snatch the Western Canada senior hockey title. Their victory tied the best-of- five Allan Cup semi-final at two games apiece.» The sudden-death decider is here Saturday night. For Canadians, the long hard comeback is an old story. In three previous playoff series leading to this semi-final Fort Frances came from behind to down Kenora This- tles, Port Arthur Bearcats and Winnipeg Nationals. A victory Sat- urday night would make them the cutstanding "Cinderella" team in Canadian hockey. For the first time in Regina Caps four-year history the door to their dressing room was bolted after the game. The only Caps' comment came from Sweeney Schriner, the form- | er Toronto Maple Leaf and one of | four former National Hockey League | players in the Regina lineup. | "We got off to a bad start and then just went crazy," was Swee- ney's description of Caps' defeat. He was tabbed after leaving the dressing room. Canada Senior Hockey Final adians, He notched two in the first period on close-in shots and then scored on a long drive in the third session which Caps goalie By Bent- ley made no effort to stop. Caps' had difficulty clearing the puck from their defence zone. In the third period defenceman Vic Myles diverted one of Canadians' shots into his own goal. They outscored Regina 4-2 in the first period, went ahead 7-4 in the second and added four more to the Gapy brace in the final session. ort Frances--Goal, Barefoot; def: Fedoruk, Brayshaw; centre, Marshall; wings, Fonzo, Toninato; subs.: Samp- son, Christiansen, Millar, O'Donnel, Huvochuk, Johnson, Sapiywy, Kliner.
