' THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6, 1929 RE NGRANGERSIN OVERTIME GAME Fr of the Night, Scoring Both Oshawa's and Lortie Also Look Good in De- ulous Saves Two of the Three -- Nault and Aller Noriko You : qualified to night meet : Marlboro junfors when they defeat- ed the Oshawa Shamrgcks after being 3 to 2 on the night's play and 6 to 4 on the round. + A crowd larger than any yet to witness a junior, game in the Tor- onto arena greeted the players wien they stepped out on to the ice to re- sume battle after thetr 2 all tie on Friday night. They were not disappointed either, proclaiming the game the best that has been seen in the arena this winter, bar nune. Smart goal tending and fast plays stamped the game as a hum-dinger from the starting bell which kept the fans on the edge of their seats at all times only to bring them to their feet every few seconds when a goal was missed by inches or the fraction of second. Of the large crowd present there Was approxis mately half from this city every means of transportation being used to take the throng to the Queen City to cheer the local juniors on. Private motor cars was the most popular method however but many used the Special Busses used tor the purpose. Those that made the trip were well repaid despite the fact that the Oshawa Irish went |and ami down to defeat, there being eighty minutes of real hockey dished out in no mean manner, with little to choose between the two teams, Ran- gers had the little to pop in the winning goal only after desperate at tempts on' the part of their entire outfit who had stood up under tho terrific grind of the fast pace sew. Smillie, a tall left wing man for the Toronto team proved to be the one man that the Shamrocks could not stop to any degree of success scoring the first and second of the Rangers goals Smillie was the best man opposing the Oshawa team. Rushing dangerously at all times this left wing flash a thorn in the flesh of the local team and rooters. Doc. Dowden, Shamrock's star de fence man was the hero of the local squad and drew many a loud cheer when he stepped on or off the ice. Rowden scored Oshawa's two coun- ters both on pretty solo rushes that gave the Toronto goal tepder no chance to save, working d for more Doc would have had them had Goldie in the nets not been in there playing a smart game to save many by miraculous saves, Néar the clos- ing minutes of the game Rowden who had worked like a trojan all through the hectic struggle was all but dead on his feet, the strenuous body checks handed out to him on nearly all of his rushes had toia their story hindering him from playing the fast rushing game that was the outstanding feature of the regulation sixty minutes of play. Rainey Lortie, playing left wing distinguished himself time and again with his hard driven shot from his section of the ice surface, no goals came of the shots but they were a constant worry to the alert Goldie. Burr, perhaps more than any other man on the ice was called upon to be in in the clinches, and he was, playing a game that would qualify him for far above the junior rank this Oshawa goal-tender hand- led all but the three that he had no chance on in 8 way that would make many a veteran net guardian envy his cool way of stopping the many pucks driven at the goal. Starting the game in fast style, Rowden ran in two goals in five minutes with he and his teammates all trying for more, checking like pros they looked like the best by a large margin. The first period end- ed found the locals those two goals to the good. In the second Rangers came back to even the play up con- siderably getting one goal while Shamrocks missed many chances by the split second and the second rest found the score 2 to ome. Oshawa made the fatal mistake of resting on the slim lead of one goal with ten minutes to play and the re- sult was that Smillie after many tries broke through the defence to score the goal that necessitated the overtime play. The unusually fast pace had the locals worn down fn the overtime Rangers having just a little the best of the play to get the winning shot after 72 min- utes of the fastest junior hockey played in or around Toronto this wint-r. Starting the game characteristic of a third period Shamrock battle the local juniors piled into the Ran with too-much Rowden to be to the Toronto team's 'liking. Play had just nicely got started when '"'Doe" on a nice solo rush beat the entire squad of Maroon and yellow players for Oshawa"s first goal.

Smillie shot a hard drive from centre ice right on the goal but it was ably handled by the cool Burr, Ritchie drew a penalty for giving Rowden a nasty spill with his knee, Rowden was forced to take a rest a thunderous applause skated off to one side. Morrison al- so got chased for tripping Allin with his foot as he skated around Mor- rison on the defence. After another nice rush Allin nearly put the puck in his own net in an effort to clear a pass directly in front of the goal. Rangers forced the play buzzing around the net like hornets. Evi- dence of the tough breaks received by Oshawa were two shots of Row- den's on Morrison both hitting the goal posts, one on each side of the net after a pretty pass.

When the ends had been changed Drinkle and Nault were both penalized when they were not doing anything. Ritchie tripped Drinkle, Hemphill did not see action and turning around benched the two. Arun- dell also looked mighty tired after a rush he was barely able to skate back to his position, : In the second overtime period the Rangers came close on many tries Burr stopping them. Allen got the winning tally about two minutes after the start of the sec- ond extra stanza on pretty pass from Nault. Then it was Rangers turn to draw the decision of the crowd for shootng the puck down the ice as a means of killing time. Allen the speed king also helped out getting the puck only to circle his own net in leisurely fashion. Lortie and Morrison both missed nice chances to score when their shots missed the net. Morrison deserved a goal, splitting the de- ":~rg 'meatly but missed by the & tion a second, that fraction .ng Goldie a time to be there.

Allen, Nault and Smillie all: boring in con every occasion that the puck went their way, follow the play like hawkes getting plenty of shots all of which Burr was able to handle.

H.A. junior title for the second time in succession when they bat- tled to a one-all tie with the Kirk- land Lake team in a hard-fought game played at the local arena last night.

MAROONS SUFFER FATAL DEFEAT Detroit, Mich,, Mar. 6. -- Mont- real's fighting Maroons put up a terrific second and third period battle here last night but they tumbled before the team of Cooper and Connors of the Detroit Cou- gdrs, 3 to 1, in a National League game before 8,000 persons. The loss was almost a death blow to the Maroons' chances for a pay-off position "this year, although they still have a slight chance to land in the third place berth of the penalized for giving Rowden the{ Canadian division. "Hockey worth while" was what was advertised and that is exactly what was hand Young out to the large crowd that were present to sce the Toronto ers playing a game that had every other that they have played this season backed off the map to defeat the Oshawa Shamrocks by a one goal margin after ciglity minutes of fast, hard checking play, { At the outset there looked as though there was nothing to it but co much Rowden, coupled with too much Irish, Rowden running in two goals in quick succession to put the locals on top at the end of the first period. Rangers, however, came back in the se cond and with the start of the period the determination to win gould be seen sticking out all over each and every player, This sign was not only confined to the .Toronto team though, and the locals were in there with identically the same purpose and the result was all together to the liking of the fans, what the game lacked in brilliant hockey whs well substituted by the un goal keepers playing a predominating ieing efforts of both teams with the part, Burr took his turn in the local nets and turned in the game of his life stopping a host of shots that had the spectators on their feet, either cheer- ing or groaning, after each save theentire assembly would gasp with amaze- ment, "Doc" Rowden was again the star of the Shamrocks giving the "big shots out in the bull pen plenty to talk about regarding his many rushes which' netted the locals their only two goals and should have netted more, his tenacity and checking although t marvelled at, ired right out was something to be Don Smillie was the cause of it all, playing a heady game to skate in fast on many thrusts, scoring two of by Burr on the remainder, once when the winning goals and being robbed the Shamrock net guardian was the only man between he and his third goal, . Shamrocks one mistake came in the third period and was a costly one. With all of ten minutes of play left the boys elected to fall back and endea- vour to protect a slim lead of one goal by shooting the puck the length of the ice when they would have played a safer style by keeping up the of- fensive tactics. Smillie tied the game and round up when there was only three minutes left and in the overtime Rangers had just enough strength left to pop in the winner in the third of the short five minute periods. In their defeat last night the Montreal® Maroons were dealt a severe blow as far as play off position goes, , the Leafs have only to secure one point to make sure of a berth and they have five games to do that in.

The winning marker came after eight minutes of overtime had been played, The Hawks took the lead late in the first period but failed to hold their advantage, Lowrey, on a Drury pass, evened matters, the home team taking the lead a moment later when Darragh caged a Smith pass, This was stalemated by March, who took Rigley's flip as the period neared an en In the second period a free-for-all fight took place, Drury and Ripley taking major penalties. Lowrey was the outstanding player on the ice. McGRAW'S NEW SCHEME San Antonio, Texas, Mar. 6.-- John McGraw, who does all of the New York Giants' master-minding, has a new stunt for traiping camp use. He "calls it *continuous baseball." Instead of having a change of side after three putout, John has 'his regulars bat until 27 outs are recorded, 'Then he calls in the second team to bat un- til they have exhausted their quota of outs.

Varsity Gets 2 Goal Lead In Kingston Kingston, Mar. 6.--University of Toronto's good team, which won nine games in the senior schedule, flashed through with a two-goal lead at the end of the first of the senior O.H.A. play-offs at the Harty arena here last night, when they defeatéd Queen's by the score of 4 to 2. A crowd of over 3,200 people, the 'largest of the season, years, and they saw also a finish- in one of the fastest games in years, an dthey sa yalso a finish- ed Varsity team, one which should hold their lead in the return game in Toronto on Friday night. The Porterites deserved their victory last night, for they played better hockey in the second and third periods, after being clearly outplayed the first 15 minutes of play. But after they had success- fully weathered the first period, there was little doubt as to the outcome, for Queens' proved weak in their shooting, failed to pass the puck with the effectiveness of the Varsity forwards and they were faced by a seemingly stone wall in Sdyder in the Varsity citadel. Varsity fairly swept Queen's off their feet at the start of the second period, for less than a minute af- ter the start Harley broke away and carried the rubber around the Tricolor nets, working it to the side for a shot that beat Quinn. It was a demoralized Tricolor team for several minutes, but they final- ly woke up, and Smith pulled a brilliant play when he stick-hand- led past the defence, sent a pass to Lawlor, and the latter made no mistake about finding the corn- ner of the net. Two minutes later Paul got the goal back on a solo effort, and be- fore the perjod ended Harley and McMullen paired up on a rush, the former being allowed unmolested to shoot the disc into the nets, Young Editor .
