THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 6, 1929 PAGE SEVENTEEN LOCAL RINKS LOSE IN TANKARD PLAY -- LEALS AND PIRATFSTIE Maple Leafs Last Road Trip is Tie With Pirates -- k Neither Team Able to Score --Teamwork and Combi nation Lacking Pittsburg, Pa., Feb, 6, --Listless- ness on the part of both the To- ronto Maple Leafs and Pittsburg Pirates here last night robbed either sextette of a win in their National Hockey Loague encounter, seventy minutes elapsing without a score, The Pirates really were the gainers, however, Detroit hav~ ing lost to Chicago, allowing the locals to close up the gap between them by a single point. "Ace" Bailey had an especial ene- my here last night in the long form of Roger Smith. Several times the "Ace" got through but he found Smith awaiting him at every sortle"s end. Herby Drury was the lone outstanding player of the game, His work was snappy throughout, but lack of co-opera- tive spirit on the part of his mates hurt considerably, For only ten minutes, and that late in the third periid, was there any semblance of efforts. Both teams opened up then, but their hard games of the week-end evi- dently had sapped their vitality, Slow Opening Period Cox and Bailey started at the gun and pressed goalward but a fine bit of work by Hib Milks pre- vented a score. Darragh and Milks then got loose and shook Chabot with a couple of shots, At that time the reserve lines of both teams came on, Lowrey made a fine bid for a goal but Miller slip- ped it out of the danger line with a neat hand stop, Day came to grief at the blue line and Drury took the puck to the other end of the ice, The game was slow with but little team play on either side, Darragh got away and but for a slip had a sure goal, Just as he ghot the puck his skate hit a bit of chewing game wrapper, and he shot wide, Mediocrity featured the entire first period, there being no semblance of effort on the part cf any wing man, The period ended as it started, slow and without col- or, : Drury Always Dangeious Both teams started the second period with five men, and it then became known that Frederickson and Day had been penalized for fighting as the bell rang ending the first period, Action speeded somewhat with Drury pressing, Herb continually ran through the Toronto skaters, but it availed him nothing. Bailey tore through the Pirate defence but he was fore- ed to the side and his shot was de- flected: - Bailey for a second time came down the ice and Miller bare- ly saved. Blair and Horner each took stabs at Millers' citadel, the Pirate goalie saving both. Day's at- tempt also came to grief and play shifted. Milks and Frederickson stabbed with Chabot on the alert, Frequent off-sides were called during the period. The players were waking up and the play was faster. Lowrey wet to the pen for roughing. With the one man advantage the Pirates gained nothing, the bell ending the period scoreless. Leafs Stage Strong Attack A Milks-Frederickson-Darragh passing combination nearly spelled trouble for the Toronto skaters. Darraugh's shot forced Chabot to his utmost to save. It was the first bit of co-operative play in the game, During the first uve min- utes the Maple Leafs had not giv- en Miller a save, Darragh and Milks and Frederickson hogging the show. The Leafs contented themselves by playing defensive hockey, The Pirate secondary line came on and kept up the fast pace; Drury being most effective. Now the Leafs splurged. Bailey, Cox and Low- rey went at the Pirate net with a vengeance, but were turned back. Bailey stole down the ice, and only magnificent work on the part of Miller saved a goal. Miller split hie stick in making the s.op. riay went back to the listlessness that dominated the first two periods and before either side srapped out of it again an extra period was neces- sary. Duncan Misses Chance "Ace" Bailey started fast for the Leafs but came to grief in a like marner. R. Smith beine his par- tienlar Nemesis all evening. Me- Caffrey slammed down the ice and was followed a moment later bv R. Smith, the latter bringing Cha- bot to his krees to save a hord shot. Miller also was tested with Cox shooting. Duncan slam- banced 2ll the wav through and as Miller went to the ice to save, he missed the golden opporturity of the everine by shootine wide. The Lesfs were continuslly pressing. Parrach caught Chabot raoping but Inek was with the J.eafs' goalie, the steb being wild. Smoke clouds hung low over the ice, making it difficult for the goalies to see.

The teams: Boston Bruins--Goal, Thompson; left defence, Hitchman; right defence, Shore; centre, Carson; left wing, Galbraith; right wing, Oliver; subs, Welland, Clapper, Mackay and Owen, Oshawa Rinks Lose in First of Tankard Play The rinks from the Oshawa Curl ing Club were eliminated from the Ontario Silver Tankard yesterday by the London Thistle representatives, Having been put out carly in the play the local rinks entered the consola- tion series for the Burden trophy and in this they did better, defeating Chatham by 9 shots.

Marlboros Win Big Four Group Marlboros swept impressively to the championship of the O.H.A. jun- ior "Big Four" group wher they de- feated Toronto Canoe Club last night at the Arena G:.'cns by 5 to 2 and thus annexed the play-off round right handily by 15 to 85. Though the Red Ringers were fac- ing a seven-goal deficit carried over from the first game, the interest did not tail off as feuds which had been developing through a strenuous group campaign cropped up to pro- vide peppery action and to warm the cold planking of the penalty bench. Judging from the play-off games, it will always be a source of wonder to local fans how the Red Ringers managed to beat the doughty Dukes twice and hold them to a tie on an- other occasion in the group cam- paign. The problem will likely be dropped into the same pigeon-hole of the much mooted Small mystery. Even Maestro D'Alesandro, diminu- tive and debonair director of the Dukes' destinies, was satisfied, and that is something worth noting in regard to the gentleman who sits on the Marlboro bench, opens and closes the substitutes' door and vaguely wonders what it is all about, Powerful Front Again it was forcibly demonstrated that the Dukes' power lies in their regular front line, With the canny Convey manoeuvring at centre, Con- acher blazing his drives from the right boards and Jackson, the sty- list, weaving along the left flank, they are truly impressive. When the relief men were dropped in the forward sector there was something lacking. Hackett strives hard to sell the "bad man" idea to the fans, but somehow they are mot impressed, while Darragh is only an average performer. Ellis Pringle and Alex.

Not since the days of "Babe" Dye, have local fans seen a junior who could drill the disc with such speed and accuracy. Sev- eral of his goals were driven into narrow openings with startling speed when the Red Ring keeper of the gate and most of the fans thought the angle was completely closed. Harvey Jackson, ranking color per- former in the Big Four, was at his hest excepting for a tantalizing lack of luck'at the goal mouth. Time and again he swerved through the Red Wing defence, leaving the checkers flat-footed, only to shoot into the pads of the desperate goal- cr or wide of the cage.

The score on the round stands at five all, Rangers winning the game ny a 8 to 1 score, overcoming the Westend- ers' two-goal margin from the first game, played at the arena last Saturday, but besides the tan- gle of a tie on the round there is also a protest and two gratuituous overtime periods, which were play- ed before it was realized that ex- tra time was not in order. The protest is on one of the strangest manoeuvres attempted in hockey for any years, one of the most daring assaults ever made on defensive play, for Ed, Wildey, coach of the Rangers, with his team one goal down, and only a few minutes left in the third per- iod of play, called his goalkeeper off the ice, replacing mm by a forward and sent six players on the offensive, which resulted in the tying goal, With the score even, the goalle continued, but West To- ronto officials protested, claiming that the goal-guardian was not eli- gible to re-enter play in the same period.

The Willowdale game tomorrow night over at Whitby will attract a record crowd and the local team will have all the encouragement that is needed to win the group. The tickets went on sale at Mike's this morn- ing and there was a large crowd waiting to snap them up, They were bought in like Hananas, buns, or what have you? The five, ten and dozen lots being the Within twenty-five minutes after ost popular, going on sale the "Sold Out" sign was displayed and those that were late in arriving were turned away, It ig rumored that the line up will be changed a little, but these rum- ors are not to be relied upon, However, under Mr, Nichol, there is no doubt that the change, if any, will be for the best. No word has come from the Willowdale team as to the strength of their roster, but it will be strong, and no mistake, The Young Ranger-West Toronto junior game at Ravina rink last night should have been of only sixty minutes' duration, even though the tcams were tied on the round at the end of that time, It is only when both games of a play-off are scheduled for the same ice that overtime is required in the second contest when the score is even on the series at the end of sixty minutes, The Millrose A.C, of New York , has given permission to Percy Wil- liams to run in a 50-yard handicap race at Newark on Thursday night. The Olympic champion, however, will not compete in any open cvents at that meet, The handicap will serve as a sharpener for the more important races in New York on Saturday night. illiams and Jimmy Ball, while in New York, are the guests of Canadians at the New York Athletic Club. The date of their appearance in Toronto at the Coliseum in the Canadian indoor championships, on the new board track is Thursday, February 21. This promises to be the greatest athletic night in the history of Toronto. Contracts to thirty-seven players arc being sent out this week by Art Leman, secretary of the Leafs. In ten days' time they will commence to drift back and President Solman hopes with signatures attached. Some of the players have been given well-deserved increases and little trouble is anticipated in whipping the candidates for the coming scason's team in line. President Solman at present is not in a position to announce the names of the pitchers coming to the Leafs to complete the Alexander-Prud- homme deal, for the simple reason that he does not himslf know the two the Detroit Club intends to send here, Word was received here today that J.

TRAILING HAWKS DEFEAT DETROIT Detroit, Mich., Feb. 6.--The Chicago Black Hawks, tail-enders in jhe American division of the National Hockey League, won their first game in many weeks here last night, when they down- ed the Detroit Cougars, third place holders, by a 1 to 0 score. Johnny Gottselig, fast Black Hawk wingman, drove through Detroit's defence for the lone score less than two minutes after the start of the game. After that spec- tacular goal tending by "Chuck" Gardner, Hawk goalie, heid off a glashing Cougar drive, The Cougars broke through twice to land the puck in the net, once in the second period and once in the third, but both plays were ruled offside. "Herb'" Gar- diner, Chicago manager, entered the line-up for the second time this year, and materially aided the defence of his team. Only four penalties were exacted.
