'Willowdale's speed and clever checking were largely re- onsible for the victory, for roughout the game the locals out- skated their opponents, and when driven on the defensive were able to stop Kitchener's attacks to such an extent that the visitors were sel- dom able to get away their shots effectively when in gcoring posi- tions. While the two goal lead might seem considerably large in Toronto, the Kitchener team was not outplayed as much as the score would indicate, and when Willow- dale plays at the Twin City on Wed- nesday it will have to be at its best to protect its two-goal advantage, ith the exception of a short time in the last period, the game was characteritisc of an O.H.A, in- termediate final, Both teams took a keen interest in the game, and their enthusiasm was shared by the large crowd, making the game ex- citing, From the start Willowdale unlooséd speedy attacks, and for most of the game kept Kitchener on the defensive, It seemed that Kitchener was not over-anxious to exchange rush for rush with the locals, for their tactics gave the im- pression that they were willing to play a more or less defensive game in order to save themselves for their home game, Roth and Karges, Ktchener cen- tre and defense man, respectively, led their team on the attack in the first period, but close checking and clever goalkeeping by Harris pre- vented them from scoring, On one occasion Roth was through alone, but Nugent came from behind, slowed the shot, and Harris was able to turn the puck aside, Mc- Pherson, Collins and Skirrow, on the Willowdale front line, made many clever combination plays in the opening period, but Berner, in goal, was able to prevent all shots, with the exception of the one on which Collins scored, In the second period Willowdale attacked more vigorously than in the first, As had been the case in the opening period, McPherson at centre was one of the important factors in stopping the Kitchener attacks, Time after time he took the puck away from his opponents before they could get past centre. Toward the middle of the period the game became rather strenuous, Both teams used heavy checking tactics, and several penalties were issued. When Lehman and Schnei- der of Kitchener were both in the penalty box, Willowdale had a good chance to add to their score, but, chiefly due to the clever play of Kuntz, were prevented from tally- ing. Collins scored his second goal of the game when both teams were again at full strength, when he took a pass from Nugent in close to the goal, Nugent had drawn the defence aside, and Collins had only the goalkeeper to beat, Beal, re- lief Willowdale wing player, earn- ed his team's other goal when he stick-handled his way past the Kit- chener front line, split the defence, and beat Berner, It was in the last period Kuntz scored his team's goal, Willowdale played clever hockey ed Earn HOCKEY RECORDS Hockey es played last night re- sulted as follows: O.H.A.

A win for the former who nave one victory to their credit, will give them the championship.

"Hooley" KITCHENER DEFEATS NIAGARA FALLS 3-1 Niagara Falls, Mar. 5.--Niagara Falls' hope of entering the O.H.A, junior finals received a crushing blow in the first game of the sec- ond last round here last night when the Twin City lade won by 4 3 to 1 geore, which gives them a two goal lead for the second game to be played in Kitchener on Sat- urday night. A capacity crowd of 4,000, which established a record , {for the season here, attended the game, Both teams put up an excellent brand of junior hockey and the play was close, though the scoring "breaks" went to the invaders. There was little, if anything, to choose between the rival sextets. Zip Shantz in goal for the Twin City team was a big cog in keeping the Heximer-Shannon speedsters down to one tally. Niagara Falls had 35 shots on goal, while Kit- chener had 33. Though that mar- gin is a small one, the home team led by a goodly margin in point of close-in shots and good opportun- ties that went wide. Kitchener--Goal Z. Shantz; de- fence, R.

The Cataracts were never in the picture after the Bulldog forward line got going in the first period with three goals in rapid suceces- sion, all inside of three minutes. In the second period Windsor added two more with Lott slapping in a rebound for Niagara's first tally, while in thethird stanza each club scored once. Niagara resorted to one man rushes in their efforts to keep pace witht he Bulldogs and the system brought little results. Paddy Far- rell, in the visitors' net, was bom- harded heavily in every period and but for his clever work between the gas pipes the Bulldogs would have piled up an even bigger score, In the third period Farrell made a sensational showing to rob Car- son, Brown and Neville of what looked like certain goals, Windsor--Goal, oa defence, Arbour and Brown; centre, Roaen; wings, Gregg and Sorrell; subs, Ne- , Carson, Emms, Bellemer and n, Niagara Falls--Goal, Farrell; de- fence, Duggan and Fournier; cen- oe Hallida /R wihes, Steele and uesnel; subs, Ir) Lott and Hadden. agion, Referee--Lou Marsh, Toronto. KITCHENER CANPROS WIN IN OVERTIME Kitchener, March §.~The Fly- ing Dutchmen went back into fourth place, one point behind the homeless Toronto Millionaires by defeating the Buffalo Bisons 2 to 1 in An overtime Canpro game at the auditorium here last night. The game was a hard-fought one throughout, the teams giving all they had as they were running neck and neck for fourth place and a place in the play-offs, It was only the second time in six games that the Dutch have been able to subdue their troublesome oppon- ents, the Bisons being their jinx but the chasing of it came at an opportune time as a defeat would just about have eliminated the locals, It was a strenuous game of hockey with the body being used freely and not always fairly by any means, Both clubs hit them hard and at times it appeared as if trouble would break out but the players eventually cooled down, There were 14 penalties handed out with the homesters having eight of them, The hockey was more of the offensive variety than the defen- sive, both clubs playing for the hreaks and the homesters got then with Pete Palangio bagging both counters The first came in the first period when Brydson was doing time, The losers evened it in the second 'when Skinner and Me- Farlane were penalized in succes sion but the winning counter came with full teams on the ice. Gross, who had been playing a hard gama, carried the rubber down and after battling his way through had a shot that Taugher kicked out but the rebound went to Palangio and the latter lifted it into the cage A feature of the contest was the bumping duel between Gross and Hughes, the latter being frequent- ly spilled by the former, The two at times charged into each other in hard, though comical, style and both took the duel in good part, For the winners, Loughlin, Gross and Palangio were the best with Hiller also playing a useful game, For the losers, Hughes, Brydson and Huard were the best. Buffalo--Goal, Taugher; de- fence, Hughes and Lederman; centre, Roth; wings, Huard and Brydson; subs, Murray, Desy, Mar- tin and Currie.

Season -- Special Trans. portation Arrangements All Complete -- Ace High Game Assured To-night is the night of the game between the Oshawa Shamrocks and Toronto Young Rangers and this game will in all probability be the one game that will stand out among all others this season, On Friday night these two teams playing smart hockey all the way through the sixty minutes battled to a two all tie before a small crowd in the Toronto Arena, Those that were there however went away wen satisfied and declared the game to be the best witnessed by them all year. These were not Oshawa fans alone that stressed the smart hoc- key played by the teams, In the first half of the game the Rangers had a little the best of the play but as soon as the local lads had found their feet and discovered the ones to watch they soon took the upper hand to dominate the play the rest of the game. Hem- ming in the Rangers in the attempts to rush and themselves staging nice thrusts both of individual and com- bination origin the green shirted clan had things there own way, As the odds are all in favor of the team that {8 coming back Osh- awa should be called for the long end of the wise acres. they should win judging from the last game but they will certainly know they have been in a game when they walk into the dressing room after the final bell has been sounded. These Young Rangers are no slouches by any means and are a fast skating team that are composed and built round Allen on the left wing and Hickey on the defence. Nault in the centre of their outfit is a smart poke check while McMillan on the right flank is also a nice player. Tickets for the game are on sale now hoth at the Smoke Shop Simeoe street South and at Mike's Place, Central Hotel Block, persons are advised to buy their tickets (if any) at these places then they are assur- ed of being in a section of the arena that will be mostly occupied by Oshawans, Busses are being run from Mike's as they were on Friday night last with the fare set at the same price, $1. return, As the team was playing a more or less unknown quality as far as a good many of the local fans were mre concerned there were only two spe- cial busses needed, but to-night it is expected that there will be all of six make the trip. Arrangements have been made to handle all that desire to go to the Queen City to see these battling hockeyists spread their stuff, the only condition being that those same fans be either early or on time, The busses leave from in front of Mike's Place at 6.45. London, March §.--London fans had to wait until tonight for the season's finest hockey game, when a good-sized house cheered wild- iy behind an inspired and desper- ate London Panther team that fought out and earned a thrillig 4-to-3 win o.er the league-lead- ing Detroit Olympics to still keep in the play-off hunt, Packed with speed galore from the first drop of the rubber, the struggle was only slowed up tow- ard the last of the final period, when the fierce and relentless checking had boih sextets battle- weary, but still wiliing to tangle on the slightest provocation, Detroit--Goal, Stuart; defence, Rockburn and Fraser; centre, Goodfellow; wings, Bellefeuiile and Gillie; subs, Foyston, Fil- more, McCabe Hinsperger and Mc- Inenly, London--Goal, fence, Voss and feddi Primeau; wings, Kin dle; subs, Goodwil Lowrey Lever, M nacher, V4 Referee--Dr,, Woodstock, / ; centre, and Ran- McGuire, and Con- J.

The Toronto play- er scored 1,334 points in the after- noon and evening sessions against Quinn's total of 985. Tothill made high breaks of 230, 184, 140 and 139, Quinn's biggest runs were 167 and 121, The match, which is of 8,000 points, will terminate Saturday. a load; To Truck Drivers and Owners Loads Must be Reduced During March and April Important clauses in The Ontario Highway Traffic Act are designed to protect roads, both paved and unpaved, during early spring, Because of moisture that lurks in road foundations, excessive weights and speeds do extensive damage to road sure faces at this time, What the Law Says The Highway Traffic Act declares that during March and April. on roads outside cities and towns: i) Solid tired trucks and trailers shall be limited to half Pneumatic tired trucks and trailers, with a capacity exceeding three tons, shall be limited to half a load; Horse drawn vehicles with a carrying capacity exceeding one ton shall be limited to half a load. limits all the year round are: 15 miles an hour for solid ired vehicles and 20 miles an hour for pneumatic tired vehicles more than 6 tons gross.
