Neither team scored and play was listless even the referee took lots of time to skate from one spot to another, Crossett Stars Play pepped up a little at the start of the second, and three min- utes after the face-off, Crossett and Chartram staged a beautiful rush that netted Oshawa's first, Crossett passed out to Chartram on the wing, who shot a hard drive past Little, Bond made some' nice trys, following in three shots but Little cleared just in time, Var- sity broke fast and skating down three abreast, with Crossett left alone, had every chance but a miss- ed pass saved the issue, Statham on a nice solo rush, split Crossett and Johnston, drew Smith out neatly, and shoved in the tying score, Crossett figured In another when he let one of his hard ones go at Little, which hit his stick and went in. Rowden for the locals and Carrick were both dangerous. Smith got knocked out when he took a puck on the jaw, but continued the game when re- vived. Carrick circled the defence, drew Smith out and made things even again. Little also took the count, Johnston's stick eatching hin» on the head. The remainder of the play was even and the per- lod ended In a deadlock, 2 all. City Go Ahead . The final period produced the best hockey and the efforts of the hard body checks began to show on the speed of Varsity rushers. Houck scored on a mice eombina- tion rush with Chartram, but the goal was not allowed. Chartram scored after Crossett had split the defence, and shot, Chartram was right behind and poked in the short bound from under Little's feet. 0 minutes later Rowden got his goal on a nice single handed rush.

Madison Square Garden, N.Y,, Jan, 25.--Jack Sharkey, Boston heavyweight, smashed out a bruis- ing decision over Ko Christner, rugged Akron veteran, in a stirr- ing ten-round battle here tonight. With his Miami Beach engage; ment with Young Stribling at stake Sharkey fought in slashing fashion to outbruise the rugged rubber worker who sprang into prominence through his recent knockout of Knute Hansen. A crowd of almost 20,000 saw the slugfest. Although there were no knockdowns, one or the other reeled in every round in the wild swing fray. The crowd, all in sympathy with Christner's ~ame stand booed the decision lust- ily. Sharkey weighed 193, Christner, 193%. top speed, until there was but 3 minutes to play when Carrick batt- ed one in from a mixup just to the left of the Oshawa net. With a two eoal lead Oshawa did little lagging, Joyce shooting some hard ones right on the net, but failed to count. The game ended without any further scoring. Oshawa 5, Varsity 3.

In previous bouts, Gains has been more or less content to outbox his opponents and keep at a distance until he was stung or forced to fight to keep from being knocked out, but last night he was more aggressive than usual and in the closing rounds showed a strong at- tack that he has never exhibited here before. The old saying that a good big man fs better than a good little man was endorsed in no uncertain manner, but the biz man showed more than he ever did before to win from the smaller one. Belan- ger is a willing mixer, in fact this is his chief forte and his main wea- pon in wiping out his opponents fs an overhand right. There is lots of power behind this punch, but Gains knew it and seldom permritt- ed Belanger to bring it into use. Belanger did not show the dashing attack that was anticipated but ft was not his fault. He tried hard to -5. storm into Gains but found that - |the latter, using his reach and wide stance as the basis of his defence, - |conld beat him to the punch as he . [came in.

The clubs made the deal, a straight sale, but Carson does not like the idea of leaving Toronto or else going to Boston and he is balking. He has been ordered to report to Manager Art Ross at New York on Sunday for the game against the Rangers, but last night he stated he would not follow orders. If he does not report he will be put on the suspended list. There is a further angle to the case as the Leafs intend to use the proceeds of the Carson sale in purchasing another player, but this deal may mot be consummated for a week or so yet although the preliminary skirmishes have been completed. : Smythe realizes that the team needs strengthening in one or two places if he is to over- take either the Americans, Cana- diens or the Maroons, and with nearly two-thirds of the season completed he cannot afford to lose any time. The réfusal of Car- son to report to Boston may dela | the projected purchase. : he SPORT SNAPSHOTS The City Team have struck their stride and intend to keep it up. Last night they turned the tables on Varsity to win a place in the play-offs, barring upsets, The first period was slow the other two thirds were O.K. and showed just what can be done, ones, Taking a puck on the jaw in igo second, knocked him out but he continued the game, Every player on the team looked better, the whole forward line trying hard and the result was goals. Bond and Houck got cheated out of the score column by Little's goal tending. Neither crowd thought much of the way in which the game was handled. Willowdale are coming down on Monday might and are bringing down one hundred ana fifty supporters, With the team playing their improved style of game this mob will see a game to be remembered if they do not see their team defeated. . The management of the City Team expect to turn the tables on them and send them back with their first set-back of the season, If you have not got your ticket you had best go and get it. This game is going to be the tid bit of the season, Simcoes pulled out a win last night also, defeating the group leading Peterborough sextet. Twenty minutes overtime was necessary but that just goes to show the class of game missed by those that stayed at home, Simcoes will be playing their usual series with Toronto St. Clair as soon as their group is over. This is an annual combat between these two teams. ig The date will be announced later, Gains retained his crown last might by out pointing Bellanger in a one sided battle, having the best of the going from start to finish. Scot Hubbell, kicking star of G.M.C, Blue Devils is in the city today, but leaves tonight for Halifax on a business trip. The sale of Dr. Bill Carson to the Bruins by the Leafs does not come with the same shock it would have a year ago. Rumors of his disposal have been in the air for some time, for his playing this season has been a big disappointment to the Maple Leaf management. This is the last year of his three-year contract, and usually when a player's contract is running out he endeavors to show form which will entitle him to a re- newal the next season. Carson was not used against the Canadiens Thurs- day evening, so his playing on the recent road trip must have been un- satisfactory. Bill Carson, when he is playing the hockey he is capable of, is one of the best forwards in the league, but since his injury last year his good games have been few and far between, Carson, it is understood, has in- timated that he will not report to Boston, but so far as the Leafs are concerned he is through. teams.

The hockey fans missed a real eat in not seeing this overtime me, which had thrills and spills om the start to finish. Garrison was like a regular pro st night, and made the efforts of he Petes look like baby play. Walton and Peterson were a pair f boulders and made the Petes hink twice before trying to pass -hese two bouncers, Whitten, Brenning and Burr "layed faultlessly, making the Petes' defence look absolutely fool- ish at times. Conlin and Atkinson proved their worth in relieving their men without ever showing there had been a regular taken out. The City team took Varsity into camp and gave them a 6 to 3 trouncing, right in their own home, Dick Smith played up to his old form and held the college boys at bay. He got a nasty blow in the jaw but was right back in the fight after a few minutes reviving. Johnston and Crossett played their usual steady game, the lat- ter netting two of the counters. Houck, Rowden, and Chartram all played well, Kip getting his counter after many persistent tries. Jumbo netted two, playing one of the best games on the ice. Joyce and Bond filled the gaps well, the former showing a great deal of speed and hard wopk. This put the gang right in the money and they will probably be in the group play offs with the much looked to Willowdale team. Simcoes Win First Game 3-2, Twenty Minutes Overtime Fast Hockey Throughout -- Whitten Scores Winner in Last of Second Overtime Period -- Garrison Burr and Atkinson All Play Well The hockey fans of Oshawa missed a treat when they failed to turn up in Bowmanville last night to see the Oshawa Simcoos and = Peterborough intermediates battle for eighty minutes of good fast hockey. Whitten scorea the winning goal in the last stages of the second overtime period on a face-off right in front of the Peterborough net. There were only one hundred paid admissions which makes it difficult for a team to carry on and pay expenses with such poor support. Burr and Atkinson scored one each for Sim- coes while Dundas scored Petes two. Garrison played a wonderful game in the nets stopping all and sundry. Whitton stood out at all times, his checking breaking up plenty Peterboro plays. First Period Game opened up with fast clever hockey the ice being in good shape and Dundas scored less than a minute after the start on a single handed rush split.ing the defence, shot a hard one past Garrison, Kennally also threatened but Garrison handled his shot. Con- lin and Atkinson jumped in made things lively for LeBarr, Fo.ey tried hard but was not effective, Simcoes defence like City team needed to get the first stanza over with allowing rushes to beat them, Walton drew a penalty for chopping, Period ended with Petes leading 1-0, No Scoring The second period was fast throughout but no . goals were scored. Burr beating ihe defence should have notched but Le Earr robbed him when he made a love- ly save, Whitton got penalized for mixing things with Red Lezan. Brenning and Burr fed Whitton many shots but Petes goalie han- dles them all, Foley and Walton got chased for paying too much at. ention to each other, The re- , mainder of the period was fast and i showed good form but the score remained unchanged. All Tied Burr got a goal less than two miputes after the face-off on a shot from Petes blue line Dundas after rushing the length of the ice scored from a scrambe in front of the net to take the lead again. Play see-sewed up and down ; for ten minutes. Atkinson scooped a loose puck at center, carried it to the blue line and let drive an- other tieing counter. Two chances to take the lead were missed when Whitton and Atkinson missed passes near the Petes net Legan, penalty for tripping Whitton. Gar- rison took Foley's only chance away when he came out of his net to save an almos: sure goal, 1st Overtime Oh boy and the first overtime period starts and Simcoes the three hour boys are raring to go, with oatmealers pietty tired and bruised. Reg Legan is all black and blue from taking the bumps, Whi.ton, Burr, Waiton play bet- ter hockey than they have ali year. Peterson, 'Conlin, Brenning, and Garrison played their usual steady game, The boys seemed to hit their stride now but were unable to score on LeBarr who stopped a host of hard drives. Simcoes Win Peterson on an outstanding rush spit the defence and scored but the goal was not allowed by the goal umpire, Aikinson also got a counter that was not count- | ed. Burr and Atkinson went right in but in a scramble and could not get it in the net.

Both teams scored once in the final twenty minutes when Lindsay threw their whole team up on the attack. The winners worked in closer and shot bet.er than the Lindsay crew and their persistence around the nets and close-check- ing won the verdict for them, Hewitt, Burke and Cuthbertson, the regular line played good hoc. key for St. John's, while Woods, Weaver and F.
