THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE SATURDAY, APRIL 21, 1951 Casting Champion Will Speak Here PAGE TEN ___ DAVE REDDICK feature speaker at Oshawa sportsmen's meeting this Monday night is pictured on a favorite trout stream. He is author of that informative and interesting book, "Fishing is a Cinch." A champion caster, he was joint holder of Ontario and Quebec All-Round Fly and Bait Casting championship. --GPORT SNAPSH By Geo. H. CampBELL St. Michael's College Monarchs will represent the OH.A. and West- ern Canada in the finals of The Alexander Cup, hockey's new "amateur" trophy, inaugurated this season. Their opponents will be the winners of the series between Valleyfield Braves of the Quebec League and the Maritime champons, Sydney Millionaires. This series is at present tied at one win apiece and they play again tonight in Sydney, then move to Valleyfield for the rest. St. Mike's Monarchs eliminated askatoon Quakers, the Western Canada "Major" champions, last night at Maple Leaf Gardens, when they won a 9-3 decision to take the 7-game series in four-straight. Quakers made it interesting for two periods at 3-3 and then the Monarchs staged a 6-goal splurge in the final canto to wind up the series in convincing style. Quakers gave full credit to the St. Mike's Club as being a great hockey team with special glory given to Phil Hughes, the sensational goalie for Monarchs, who has been simply terrific in this series. +> +* L 2 There are three other very important hockey games hooked for tonight. Down in Cleveland, the Barons and Pittsburgh Hornets will clash in the 7th and deciding game of their series. Hornets tied it up the other night with their third win and the AHL. title and The Calder Cup will be settled for this season, in this deciding game tonight. At Maple Leaf Gardens, Toronto Leafs and Montreal Cana- diens clash tonight in the 5th game of their Stanley Cup "overtime series." All four games have gone into the sudden-death session with Leafs having won four of them. Now it looks as if the Mapleos can wind up the season with a glorious Saturday night climax on home jce. However, the Habs are still very much in the picture and hav- ing won last Saturday night in Toronto, can not be counted out of the running until this game tonight is all over. Down in Quebec, the Citadelles tackle Barrie Flyers in the 4th game of their series. Barrie made the long jaunt to Quebec via train and bus while the Citadelles flew down in about three hours. Citadelles won a 7-2 decision in the third game but it was very close for more than half the distance. If Citadelles tie up the round with a win tonight, then the rest of the series will just be like a 2-out-of-3 affair, with the fifth game up in Barrie on Tuesday night and the 6th game back in Quebec, and if it goes the full seven games, they'll settle it ?| Goalie Phil Hughes Is By MEL SUFRIN Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, April 21 (CP) -- There may be an obscure psychological reason for all the overtime games in the Stanley Cup series between Toronto Maple Leafs and Montreal Canadiens. It could be a .reaction to the frustration built up during the re- gular season when there was no provision for overtime and the six teams of the National Hockey League played a record number of tie games. One thing is certain, the fans haven't been all disappointed to see Montreal ana Toronto go into sudden-death overtime in every one of their four playoff games to date. That probably goes double for Toronto supporters, because Leafs have won three of the four extend- ed games, Considering the closeness of the previous games, there's good reason to expect that tonight's fifth game of the best-of-seven series might also go beyond regulation time. However, the teams will have to be careful lest they carry on too long. There's an 11:45 p.m, Satur- day night curfew in Toronto and if the teams should be tied at that time the game will have to be re- played. It happened in the second game of the semi-final series be- tween Leafs and Boston Bruins, "We have to go out and give everything we have--and a little more," said Coach Joe Primeau in St. Catharines, Ont, where the Leafs will remain until shortly be- fore game time, "We have to be ready because it's a cinch those Canadiens are going to throw their best shot. And we don't want to return to Mon- treal." Canadiens arrived in Toronto last night and Coach Dick Irvin had his usual pessimism ready for inquir- OVERTIME GAMES IN STANLEY CUPPLAY KEEPING FANS HAPPY ing reporters. "There really wasn't much use making the trip here," he said, looking almost as if he meant it. "We've given our best and Leafs are ahead. I guess the semi-finals with Detroit took too much out of us." General Manager Frank Selke was a little more optimistic, and he announced that Irvin would remain as coach for at least another two years, St. Michael's College Monarchs Move Into Alexander Cup Final By Virtue 4-Straight Triumph ST. MIKES OUST SASKATOON QUAKERS Fe A 4 Standout As Western Champs Foiled -- Big Rally In 3rd Period Concludes Series Toronto, April 21--(CP)--Citizens of Saskatoon could hardly be blamed today for making Phil Hughes their Public enemy No. 1. It's mainly the result of his un- canny goaltending ability and, of course, the power of his team-mates that Toronto St. Michael's are in the finals for the Alexander Cup and Major Hockey Championship. Monarchs, backed by the spectac- ular netminding of Hughes, over- powered Saskatoon Quakers 9-3 last night to take their best-of-seven semi-finals in four straight games. They now will take on either Valleyfield Braves or Sydney Mil- lionaires for the title, first time the Alexander Cup has been put on the line. The series will lack the old | East-West battle touch, so familiar in other leagues. It's strictly an Eastern fight this season. Gives Goalie Great Credit Quakers, who lost the other three games 8-5, 4-1, and 4-2, summed up the series this way: ) "When you have to tangle with Hughes after getting through those forwards and defencemen, it's a mighty tough order. Hughes was terrific. And he got wonderful support . . . they're a good team." Quakers managed to keep up with the high-flying Monarchs for two periods last night. They battled to a 2-2 tie in the first session and split two goals in the second. But the third period was a dis- astrous affair, Monarchs broke loose for six unanswered goals, every | one of them earned. Johnny Ubriaco, a fiery little centre, and Big Bill McCracken led Toronto with two goals each. Gord Hannigan, Ken Watson, Sam Ken- nedy, Eddie Mulligan and Dusty | Blair got singles. Bob Wiest, Char- lie McCullough and Cy Rouse tal- lied for Saskatoon. Small Crowd on Hand Barrie Flyers Get 5th Game On Home Ice Kemptville, Ont., April 21 -- (CP) -- W. B. George, first vice-president of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, announced Friday that the best-of-seven Allan Cup finals will start April 26. Two teams in Eastern Canada are battling for the chance to meet Fort Frances in the finals. They are Owen Sound and Dolbeau. Owen Sound is leading Dolbeau in the best-of-five semi-finals 2-0. Third game in the series will be played at Jonquiere, Que. tomor- row. Fourth and fifth games, if needed, also will be played there April 22 and April 23. Allan Cup finals open either in Owen Sound or Jonquiere, depend- ing on which team survives. Dates for remaining Eastern Canada Memorial Cup final games: fourth game, Barrie at Quebec, April 21; fifth game, Quebec at Barrie, April 24; sixth game, at Quebec, April 26; and seventh game, if necessary, at Toronto, April 28.

The fourth game will be played in Stouffville Monday night. 'The losers played their best game of the three this evening, surpris- ing the fans who expected a run- away game. They checked hard, skated fast and were only foiled by the good goalkeeping of Tommy McGrattan, who had more work last night than he has in the last two series. Billy Leconte was top man last night, the local centre scoring three goals. Singleton and Sluce scored for the losers. MARKHAM -- Goal, Stupen; de- fense, G. Scott, F.

Bradford Curlers Have Big Problem 'Women Curlers" Bradford, April 21 --(CP)-- Curl- ers in this town -- male -- are pondering the question of sharing their new clubroom and indoor rink with other curlers -- female. Said President Arthur Evans: "We have been advised by some clubs to keep away from the women -- and by others, that they are a great asset." The new rooms will be on the third floor of the Bradford co-| operative cold storage plant which recently was enlarged. The women of Bradford weren't | available for comment. Bosox Remain In Deep Freeze Still Hunting First Victory A's Clout Red Sox for Stunning Victory Yankees Lose Two to Senators -- Bob Feller Tosses 5-Hit Win for Indians Boston Red Sox, perennial pre- season favorite to waltz to the American League pennant, are in a deep freeze, still looking for vic- tory No, 1. Yesterday they bowed to Phila- delphia Athletics 6-3 -- a dead-last club in 1950 and one which hadn't won a game in Boston since Sept. 12, 1948. Alex Kellner, a 20-game loser in 1950, stunned a crowd of 11,461 fans by turning back the Sox with four hits. Kermit Wahl broke the game up in the eighth inning with a two- run double and scored the clincher when Dom DiMaggio dropped Joe Tipton's liner. New York Yankees ran into a snag in Washington, dropping a day-night doubie header to the Senators 5-3 and 8-4. Last year the Bombers were the only team in the | majors which didn't lose a double- header. Sandalio Consuegra yielded four hits in the day game in outlasting five Yankee pitchers who granted | only two hits but handed out 13 | bases on balls. A crowd of 21,331 | fans, including President Truman, | turned out as Washington belatedly opened its season, The game was 4 playoff of Monday's scheduled opener. Lefty Al Sima scattered 10 hits in the night game which attracted 15,553 customers.
