PAGE 3A KITCHENER SECURES fHE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1928 THREE-GOAL LEAD OVER MOTOR CIT Oshawa Sextette Away otf 'ti Color and Lose Several Opportunities to Score Shirk Tallies Three of Twin Cities' Counters By Virtue of Strong Wrists -- By Reversal of Form Sammy Lowe and His Clan Are Confident of Winning To- night By a Sufficient Mar- gin to Capture the Round The Oshawa intermediates and their three hundred and more sup- porters travelled back from Kitch- ener in a chastened if not down- hearted mood, after a 4--1 defeat administered to the local "white hopes" on Kitchener ice Saturday evening in the first game of the round, Sammy Lowe's crew put up one of their worst exhibitions this year, but also were not espe- clally favored by that much-sought after Dame Fortune, The third Kitchener goal, ich came in the second frame, cafised most of the fuss, Hamel, the Kitchener cen- tre man, rushed and shot, and Smith made a clean stop of his bul- let drive. Hamel rushed in, and jabbed at the rebound, which ap- peared to about everyone in the rink (except the goal judge) at that end, who happened to he a Kitchener man) to hit the post, After all the tumult and the shout- ing died, Dick Smith was ruled off for one minute for expressing his opinion about things in general and "Kip" Rowden took a turn, and managed to stave the "Twin City" representatives off until Smith re- turned, It is understood Harold Farlow, the extra man on the ice, during the game, will take up the matter of the disputed goal with Secretary Tackaberry, of the O.H.A, Shirk of the Kitchener team was yesponsible for the other three goals which were all obtained in the same manner, The three coun- ters were all scored from mix-ups at the net, when Shirk was twice left uncovered, and the third time smashed his way through four of the visiting team to 'score, The Oshawa tally came from a low lightning like shot from Chart- rand's stick, who shot suddenly from about centre ice, catching Ruppel off guard, Ruppel played 8 stellar game throughout, but was not any more effective than 'Dick' Smith in the opposite end of the rink, Smith made some great saves, and could not be held responsible for any of the goals scored. Penalties were also costly to the locals, the first counter coming when Avery was serving two min- utes; and Joyce was given five min- utes for some suggestions regard- . ing the best manner to handle a bell, Chartrand's goal came too Jate in the game, The team showed more of its real form and aggres- sive attack after their initial mark- or and for the latter half of the third period gave Ruppel many an anxious moment, Smith, "Kip" Rowden, Sammy Lowe, and at times, Johnson, look- ed most natural for the O-S-H- ST . A-W-A team, while all the Kitchen- er team went well with Shirk, Hamel, Ruppel and Baets the most prominent. Shirk and Trushinski are the veterans of the team, Shirk now playing his fourteenth year with the Green Shirts, Like wine, he improves with age. Trushinski was one of the fastest men on the ice, but not effective around the nets. Houck, Avery, Joyce and Chart- rand were a bit "off color" and did not show up as well as in former games, Chartrand was used quite a lot on the forward line, when Lowe came on the ice, who drop- ped back in defence, Some of the others seemed to lack condition, Perhaps it was the new sweaters that caused the downfall of the Oshawa club, The team created quite a lot of attention and com- ment when they appeared bedeck- ed in the resplendent red, white and black sweater coats, The game started fast, with Tommy Johnson making the first attacking threat of the game, Schmidt, Rowden and Shirk went well, The Oshawa team from the start did not look full of "vim and vigor" as usual, Joyce shot one from the blue line that looked in, as the goal tender turned to fish it out, but the goal judge ruled that it did not cross the line. Ham- mer was going well, and made two or three dangerous sorties on the citadel, Chartrand did everything but score immediately following. Johnson and Rowden combined but were beaten by Ruppel, Avery was banished. Shirk took the rebound of Berlet's shot and circled the net to score, Rowden's checking did not meet with approval and he was given a chance to talk to 'Jock' the amia- ble trainer, Berlet made some tricky rushes, and he packed a real shot but Smith had his eye glued on them all, Sammy Lowe looked good on his appearances on the field of battle. The first period score was 1--0 for the homesters, Most of the action and the goals were packed in the second period, Three of the Kitchener goals came in this frame which ended their scoring for the evening, The first score came quickly after only one minute and fifty-five seconds had elapsed, In a scramble, after Tru- ghinski rushed, Beatz passed out to Shirk in front, who made no mistake, Joyce was given a 5 min- ute rest, Houck and Lowe made some good rushes with no effect. Rowden was playing a fast and aggressive game, and one of his "Babe Dye' shots hit the post, and bounded out, and seemed just about a replica of the next goal for Kitchener which was the disputed counter, Rowden made a couple of stops and held the ememy at bay until Smith came on, Shirk got his third when he was again left uncovered in front, Johnson made a great hid for a goal as the period ended with Kitchener 4 and Osh- awa still striving to score, Baetz dominated the play in the first part of the third stanza, and was all over the ice, Oshawa start- ed to liven up, and kept Ruppe: busy for the remainder of the i game. Sammy Lowe and Johnson played their best hockey of the night in the last period, and John- son was hurt in a collision with Shirk, Shirk got in alone once but his shot was wide, Chartrand came , through with the Oshawa life-say- er, Rowden ncarly duplicated his feat when he had the puck in front but eould not lift it over one of the prostrate defence men, The game terminated with Osh- awa having the play, but unable to add to their total. The players got away about 12.30 after the game, in the bus, and arrived in Oshawa about 4,10 and Toronto about 3.15. One of their supporting clan was too ardent, and was taken to task by a Kitchener "Bobby" who did not approve of him drowning his sorrow, The gentleman fs taking a holiday in the Kitchener eivic hotel and it is understood will pay a high price for the privilege. The teams were: Oshawa---Goal, Smith; 1. defence, Chartrand; r. defence, Johnson, centre, Avery; r., wing, Rowden; 1. wing, Houck; substitutes, Lowe, Joyce and Garrison (goal). Kitchener--Goal, Ruppell; 1. de- fence; Trushinski; r. defence, Ber- let; centre, Hamer; r. wing, Baetz; I. wing, Shirk; substitutes, Bender and Schmidt.

The "old line shooters" must have "denned up" for the winter, as only one was present at the shoot, although rumor has it that several were lured to the Curling Rink by the local bonspiel. Op a straight Ewart McLaughin was high man with 80 per cent of his birds bro- ken with R. Rowden practically equal with 78 per cent. These shooters lead the class A section. R. Braund was in third place with 72 per cent. P. Gould was high man in Class B section with a percen- tage of 62. For the longest run of hits with- out a miss R, Gerrard tied with P, Gould but this was not shot off to a decision, The next regular shoot will be held on Saturday afternoon; March 10, at 2:30 p. m, percentage basis' SPOR1 SNAPSHO1S The best junior battles of ¢ he year commence this evening at the Arena Gardens, Toronto, when St. Michael's and Marlboros get together, St. Michael's are favored to take a fall out of the Marlboros who so far have been riding rough shod over all oppon- ents, since they conquered Toronto Canoe Club in the group strug- opportunity.

Miss Margaret McBride, who proved the sensation of the meet by her sprint to the ladies' throne, won one of the ma- jor honors for Toronto, while Miss Flossie Hurd kept the other cham- pionship from an out-of-town trip in the 16-year-old class, Ottawa, showing superiority in the minor ranks, was the big winner, getting three titles, being best small boys' section and the 18- year-old division. The" men's senior championship travelled to the Cadillac Club of Detroit, in the arms of Percy Johnston, a former Toronto skater, The far East, always prominent {in speed skating is again in the champion- ship class Harry Smythe of Monc- ton, N.B., getting the boys' 18- year old honors. The last half of the chamion- ship meet produced high-class competition most of the titles be- ing in doubt until the points were totalled after the last race while in the boys' 16-year-old class, Earl Scheeler, of Buffalo and Charles Ducharme Ottawa, were forced to run an extra race to break a deadlock, the Canadian lad winning by a narrow margin. Most of the excitement was pro- vided in the men's senior division, Percy Johnston being extended to the limit to get the championship. W. Flack of Old Orchard, beat Johnston in the 440 yards final in the best race of the meet, both crossing the finishing line togeth- er, the local skater being a shade in front. RECORD CREATED IN BUDGET DEBATE Ottawa, Feb. 24 --The budget debate, which has betrayed little but apathy during its course so far, was beleived, mevertheless, to have made a record tonight when it ar- rived at the close of its first week. During that period no Cabinet Min- ister nor even any front-bench Lib- eral had entered the discussion and let his support to the Govern- ment's budget deliverance on a full time basis, Experienced parlia- mentarians in the Chamber assert that this situation is unequalled in the records of budget debates. The failure of the ministerial benches to rise in support of their budget program, or of front-bench members of the Government side to express their approbation of Hon. Mr. Robb's deliverance, can- not be attributed to the absence of criticism calling for some response. Every day of the debate there has been a full quota of opposition speakers, usually out-numbering the back-benchers of the (Govern- ment side by three to one, Whirlwinds won the oy [ne in the | he was left uncovered in front of finish around both nets, cevering mouth, Harold Farlow's handling judge, it is being taken up with which means that the locals will overcome, Whether they win or 1 gle. If they come through it will be a terrific blow to the '"all- stars" as they were hailed at the first of the season. "Shrimp" Mec- Pherson, Rolly and Charlie Conacher, "Mucker" Mercer, "Red" Horner, the Bad Bold Man of the junior series and Harvey Jack- son give them some call to the title, Both teams are strong for unselfish team play, and the forwards pass the puck at every battle at centre ice between the two masters of hockey tactics, McPherson and Convey. forged rapidly ahead, practically unheralded, and is now in line for a shot af Sammy Mandell, the achieve fame in the lightweight ranks is Jimmy McLarnin, of Vancouver, who since his victory over Sid Terriss, of New York, in one punch, has of course, been ac- loyal rooter for the Stars and Stripes. Intimation comes this morning that Tex Rickard, has a bout in May, and that it may develop into a war between Rickard and Mullins, the Chicago is on Rickard. The intermediates swing into action again tonight and a dif- ferent story should be told, Sammy Lowe and his gang are con- fident that they were far from their best form on Saturday night in Kitchener, and have every confidence that they will overcome the goals were scored by Shirk on the same play. This veteran left winger has exceptionally power- shot that he employs even while ked hard around the goal mouth. Twice however at Kitchener the net, and scores resulted, The third time he was checked by about every man on the team, but it did not seem to make any difference, The visitors showed more up well at their end, while they managed to take up strategic positions in front of the Oshawa goal of the game was open for critic- ism, and he continually missed offsides for both teams. On the third goal, which was the subject of much comment and question, he was undecided, but evidently inclined to the opinion of the majority that it never entered the net, but instead of over-ruling the goal the secretary of the O. H. A, still have a three goal lead to ose the series, the game tonight will sure to be packed with action and smart hockey, as the locals stinging under their reserve are out to win the round, and the Green Shirts with a taste of victory, will do their best to stave the Lowe-led cohorts off, The game will be played at Whithy where a larger and better ice surface is available, CANADA CYCLE. TIES FOR TITLE Toronto, eb. 27.--Battling sen- sationally, the Canada Cycle team ited up the round in the semi-fin- al of the "Big Six" Mercantile hockey league championship play- off at Ravina Rink on Saturday night, and then with 'only a few seconds remaining to play in the (third period Stock Yards scored their only goal of the game, win- ning the round 5 to 4. The red- shirted Cattlemen will meet Good- years on Wednesday night with the big title at stake, Both C.C.M, and Stock Yards gave a couraeous fight to the last minute, The Cattlemen had won the first game 4-1, but the Cycles played with -precision and Hutch- {son ot two goals and "Red" Arm- strong one to make the round 4-4. The large crowd of 3,500 fans made the west-end rink roar in the last period as Cycles banged in the goal to even up the series. Stock Yards' chance of recovery jooked mighty slim and overtime was yawning for the tiring ath- letes, MARTIN NOW PLAYING A Rare Comedy "A Hero for a Night" A picture that will be the talk of the city be- fore Wednesday DON'T MISS IT!

A boat was secured at Sebastian, a small town a few miles from where the plane was found, and an effort was made to tow the plane into the in%e: nearby, but it could not be accomplished, the boat being too small It is hoped a larger boat can be secured, and further efforts will be made to bring in the plane. So far no trace of Brooks' body has been found Seaplanes have been circling all around the scene of the accident, but owing to the rough water it was impossible to make a landing. Rumors 'have been ciruclated that Brooks cl'mb- ed out on the wing of the plane when it went down, hut this is gen- erally discredited, and it is be- lieved the body will be found in the plane when it is recovered, The plane took off from Titus- ville, 40 miles above here, yester- day afternoon, about 4. o'clock, It had been tied there for two days, having been forced to make land- ing, a leak in the gasoline tank having exhansted the fuel, In making the forced landing after dark, the propeller was broken and a new one put in be- fore the start was made yesterday. It is believed this is what caused the accident. New York, Feb, 26.--Grave fears for the fate of two fliers who went out to sea from Curtiss Field. Long Island, Saturday afternoon to meet an incoming ship and Lave not been heard of since, were expressed fruitless air search off the coast during the day by M. M. Merrill, head of the Cur- tiss Flying Service. The men are Walter Hendricks, pilot, of Kew Gardens, and a passenger supposed to be Dave Staggert, address un- known. Staggert, according to meagre information available at the field, wanted to greet a friend returning from Europe and give him a thrill by circling abou; and dropping a note aboard the boat on which he was a passenger. Before taking off he said he expected to go out about seventy miles, Staggert's brother made arrange- ments late Saturday night with the Curtiss Company for an aerial search off the coast, and went out with Merrill and Augie Houck in an amphibian plane, which cruised about an hour and a and went more than fifty miles to sea. They reported unlimited visibility and no sign of the missing plane. So far as could be learned, the plane mever reached the ship for which it was heading. Staggert's machine was equipped only with wheels, and could not have remain- ed afloat long if forced dowm at sea. The only hope held out for them was that they had landed be- side a rum boat or other vessel without radio or had been forced down on an isolated sand bar along the Long Island shore, Hockey Results HOCKEY RESULTS Hockey results played Saturday night resulted as follows: National League Ottawa -.... 2 Pittsburg ...... 0 Montreal .... 3 Boston ,..... 1 Rangers ..... 1 Chicago 0 sAmericans .. 1 Canadiens .... 0 sDetroit 0 N.

But it was not just another of those scoreless ties, It was really interesting hockey and there would undoubtedly have been at least one marker registered had not the two best goalers in the league--*'Lisping Joey" Ironstone and "Dolly" Dolson, been at their best between the posts. Ironstone, with his freak style, and Dolson, of the freak pads, kept the fans interested throughout the tilt with their seasonal saves and uncanny judgment d®@ shots. It was Dolson who was first called upon to display his wares as the Falcons led by Joe Primeaun, swarmed around his citadel in desperate first period assault, shorthand mep of Selke, they leap- ed Into defensive tactics before the Stratford attackers and then Iron- stone showed his stuff.

The victory served to strengthen the Maroons' hold on third place in the Canadi- ap section, giving them a clear lead of two full games over the Toronto Leafs in fourth place. The Ma- roons have also played one game less than the Toronto team, ana one less than the second-place Ot- tawa Senators, who lead the Mon- treal team by one point, Present play-off prospects for the Maroons look bright and only a protracted slump, or a late-season spurt by the fighting Leafs, can keep the Montreal team out of the post- season series, according to pres- ent form, Three goals in the first twenty- five minutes of last night's game gave the Maroons the victory, Dur- ing that time they played superb hockey. Boston could do nothing such was the display given by to locals. They had speed to burn while their combination play made the Boston defence look woefully weak, After obtaining a8 comnrand- ing lead, the locals showed siens of a let-up, and it was then that the Bruins managed to squeeze through for their lone counter. The Bruins, however, showed nothing out of the ordinary, even when the [remit slowed down, with the result that the last half of the game was rather ragged.
