There were some who said that Henry was Mediocre as Sydney won the first two games 8â€"6 and 8â€"3 and there still was some dissatisfaction as the Rangers held Sydney to a 1â€"1 tie in the third game and finally deadâ€" locked the series with 5â€"4 and 3â€"2 wins in the next two games. The ‘"Destiny Kids", coached by Freddie Metcalfe, won the championâ€" ship before a crowd of more than 7000 ‘fans who braved an electrical storm and saw the title decided on a soft sheet of ice with a heavy lying over the surface because of a temperature of about 80 above zero in the arena. _ Many of the fans were in their shirt sleeves as the Regina team went ahead in the second period on Alf Kunkel‘s disputed goal and increased their lead on markers by Scotty Camâ€" eron and Stan Bladon in the third period. But the loudest cheers Friday were for "Sugar: Jim‘" who picked Friday for the night to give his best performance of the season. Maritimes. Millionaires gare an exceptionally fast ern_ champions.

One of the conditions of the match is that Joe Louis must still be the champion after his fight with Buddy Bacr.in Washington on May 23rd.

When Rangers shut out Millionaires last night to win the Canadian title, their supporters were about ready to expect anyithing. The first Regina goal counted in the second period bounced out of the net almost back to the blueâ€"line and the game was held up five minutes while Millionaires protested ithe puck had hit a post. The officials, after disâ€" cussing with the goal judgs, ruled it was a score. group of players. Last night they lcoked lethargic at times beside the hustling Young Rangers, who went at top speed for the full 60 minutes and backâ€"checked the eastern champions into submission. The deadline for entries in the Sasâ€" katchewan gronp was only a half hour away last October when the Regina Club finally managed to sign snough players to be included in the schedule. When Rangers won their first game, the club executive figured maybe they would catch the fourth playâ€"off spot. Then the team with an average aga of only 20‘ years proceeded to surâ€" prise everyone by winning the provinâ€" clal title. There was still further amazement when the "kids‘" beat Port Arthur and Lethbridge in the western playdowns. Promoter Mike Jacobs announced
