OTTAWA TEAM IN . » ALLAN CUP FINALS Ottawa, Mar, 11, -- The Sham. rocks, amateur hockey champions of the capitol, will represent the Ottawa Valley in the Allan Cup playdowns, They swept through the Cornwall Colts to a 3-1 victory here Saturday night to eliminate the Valley titleholders from the bunt and thus earn the right to contest for the all-Ontario title against the winners of the Iroquois Falls-Toronto Varsity series. HAWKS WIN TAME GAME Fort Erie, Ont., Mar, 11,--In a tame if not monotonous National League hockey game here last night, Chicago Black Hawks de- feated the Pittsburg Pirates 1-0, The lone score, near the end of the second period, was made by the Hawks' ace, Vic Ripley.

The Marlboros won the round by 5--4. The first game resulted in a three-all tie. The winners will now meet Kitchener Juniors in the final. After a scoreless first period, Young Rangers jumped into the lead in the second session when Nault scored the first goal of the game, Throughout the first and second period the Rangers outplay- ed the Marlboros but the work of Moore in the nets for the winners prevented them from rolling up a larger score. The third session produced the best hockey of the game. The Marlboros tied the count half way through the session when Convey carried the puck down the boards and passed to Jackson wno drove the rubber past Goldie for the goal, The winning score came shortly after when Conacher drove a long shot past Goldie, While the Rangers pass from the picture they have established a record to be proud of, which is a glowing tribute to Ed Wildey, their genial manager and coach, who gathered a bunch of ambitious boys at the start of the season, or- ganized a team and then led them to the second last round, through a campaign crowded with reverses. Besides teaching the hoys the tricks of hockey he also instilled sportsmanship into them, and on Saturday many of their early vie- tims were their strongest support- ers, while after the gruelling series they were the first to congratulate their victors, MILLIONAIRES DEFEAT NIAGARA FALLS 2 TO 1 Hamilton, March 11.--The Mil- lionaires, fighting for a solid third place in the Canpro league, de- feated the Niagara Falls Cataracts by 2 to 1 here, Saturday night, and it will now be a difficult mat- ter to keep them from meeting the Detroit Olympics in the first half of the championship series. The Millionaires broke in front at the outset when Gray accepted a pass from Young and scored in two minutes and Gray made a beautiful play in the second frame, near the close, to put the Dough- boys two up, but "Shorty" Ques- nel, of the visitors, cut the mar- gin when he negotiated a tor- tuous path alone and heat Fisher, after Lott had given him some as- sistance. . Farrell, though beaten twice, had nothing to regret. He featured the play of the visitors, which was inclined to be listless' at times, with many marvellous saves, and the deadliest attacks failed to shake him from a stalwart per- formance, He had much more work to do than Fisher, and he handled himself througout like a master. The Dowghboys' defence and front line succeeded in tying the visitors up to a large extent, and lone tallies were easily taken care of, Penalties were infrequent. Rene Fournier, of the Cataracts drawing three of six and Gray two and the task of Referee Masters was comparatively easy, Toronto's best were Gray, Young and Doraty, with others playing smartly intermittently and Niagara Falls showed their best with Ques- nel on the front line with Halliday and Steele, Teams: Niagara Falls--Goal, Farrell; defence, Fournier and Duggan; centre, Quesnel; wings, Steele and Halliday; subs, Smith, Lott, Har- rington and Madden, Millionaire--Goal, Fisher; de- fence, Cameron and Young; centre, Gray; wings, Doraty and Clark; subs, Rice, Williams, Frew, Dun- ning and Green. . TWIN CITY IN FINALS OF O.H.A. Kitchener, Mar, 11,--As in the intermediate final, Toronto and Twin City will clash for the junior O.H.A, title, This was decided at the auditorjum here Saturday night when Niagara Falls, one of the fastest and cleverest teams that ever stepped on the ice here, defeated the Twin City 1 to 0 in the second game of the semi-fin- als but dropped the round 3 to 2, owing to their 3 to 1 defeat at home by the Orange clad lads, As a result, the Niagara team with a record of having lost but one game all year dropped out of the O.H.A. picture while the Twin City kids will meet Marlboros in the final. Saturday night's game was the most brilliant of the season, taking both professional and amateur games into consideration. There have been more exciting games, the intermediate final with Willow- dale, for example, but there has been ne» game in which there was more real hockey and speed. It was a brilliant effort on the part of two clever teams that gave all they had and the game was worthy of a final. It was clean, fast and clever, and the round and game were in doubt until the last min- ute with the homers heaving a sigh of relief when the final bell went. Falls deserved the game verdict, and the club piloted by Gene Fras- er all but. tied up the ronud. BOSTON ADVANCES TO FIRST PLACE New York, Mar, 11. -- Moston's battling Bruins took undisputed possession of the first place in the American division of the National Hockey league last might' for the first time this season by defeating the New York Rangers 3--2. The Bruins now have three games in which to hold the lead while only two are on the Ranger schedule, SPORT SNAPSHOTS party, the locals could not catch, to extend themselves. of the second period by one goal, Varsity Seniors, any large score, The Peterboro fives came down on Saturday to play the Chev, Ladies and though they won the game they did not By any means have an casy time doing it, the baseball players put up a resistance that was heard even for the girls that have practicing all winter to penetrate. theginal score ended 17 to 13 for the visitors and the play is well indicated by With only a couple of minutes of play left the Chevs staged a gallant rally but were unable to overcome the lgad, Two shots that fell through the circle just at he end of the game were called back because Doris Kennedy took a step too many before letting go. G. Gimblett, of Peterboro, a girl with a reputation for getting baskets lived up to this same reputation, scoring a dozen points for the visitors, being the scoring ace of the team, She was well fed with shots from her team mates and she proved to allthatthey were passing the ball to the right Mary Mason was the best of the home team, scoring eight of the un- lucky number, playing the most of the last half with an injured foot, which was later found to be a torn ligament, her scoring was not up to the stand- ard that she had set in the first half, The boys' game was fast and was almost clear from the whistle blowing that had been a slowing factor of the preceding game. with more accurracy and shot from farther out on the floor. half it looked as though Ike Sutton and his gang were going to slip it over for at the end the score stood 9 to 6 in favor of the Oshawa team, last semi saw the Petes playing an improved game, having found the range.

The Cobourg also took the Toronto aggregation into camp. These games were also close, Cobourg winning by seven points, Judging from the scores of the two games Marlboros had some diffi- culty in eliminating the Young Rangers in the semi-final round, winning after a tie game in the first encounter, Waterloo outfit and expect to get some real opposition, When the Marlboro management say they now expect some opposition from the Twin City crew one is led to believe that they have not as yet had Whether this is the case or not the games with the Toronto Young Rangers were close with the Rangers leading at the end Iroquois Falls knocked off the Twin City seniors and now meet the i The collegians are called to win this round but not by A hearty vote of thanks was voted the Oshawa curlers by the Victor- ias with E, T.

B. Leafs Blank Play-off Rivals Toronto, Mar, 11.--An indica- tion of what Toronto Maple Leafs may do in the National Hockey League playoffs was given here Saturday night when the locals de- cisively defeated Detroit Cougars, 3-0. The teams probably will fin- ish in third places in their sections and meet in the playoffs, so Tor- onto's exhibition of their clear su- periority was particularly pleasing to local fans, . Scoring twice in the first period and again in the third, the locals had command of the game at all times, They should really have had several more markers but Dol- ly Dolson's spectacular work in the Cougar cage thwarted them when goals looked sure. The game the fourth last in the regular schedule for the Leafs and the third last for the Cougars, found both teams relaxed from the strain of the campaign of the last month, during which they clinched their positions in the playoffs, and it would not have been surprising if the game had turned out a dull, listless affair, but a little scheme concocted in the Leafs' dressing- room not only saved the engage- ment from being a dud but injected considerable spice into the proceed- ings. Bachelors Opp Benedicts Some rash player--it has been discovered whether he was a married man or one who is single --suggested a game between the benedicts and bachelors, with the members of the losing team having to provide the winners with new hats. The details of the game were easily arranged. With a squad of 12 players, two goalies, four de- fence men and six forwards, two teams were possible, but the cen- sustaker found that the single men outnumbered the married men, and how this was to be overcome caus- ed considerable negotiations, Finally a trade was made, and here the single men showed some of their manager's astuteness. They trade Art Smith apd Shorty Horpe for Danny Cox. It was also decid- ed that the teams were to oppose the Cougars for five-minute per- iods, there being a complete change team scoring the majority of goals against Dolly Dolson and his team- mates were to get the new hats, HOGKEY RESULTS National League Maple Leafs..,..3 Detroit » 0 N.

Wherever you'll go you see the "Motor City" advertis- ed. And one thing it's well advertised for is mot having a rink, Imagine a city of this size with thiee smart hockey teams at the first of the sea- son, having to go to Toronto or Whitby for a practice! Even the Shamrock Juniors advertised the 'Motor City" on their hockey sweaters, Well, it sure might be an "Industrious City," but they might have opened up and gave their hockey teams a good rink, A FAN, CANADIENS AND DETROYIT TIE 1-1 Detroit, Mar, 11,--, ~-- The last game of the season between the Detroit Cougars and Canadiens, of Montreal, here last night, proved to be the most sensational of the year, ending in a 1-to-1 tie after an overtime period that never has been excelled here for entertain- ment, Nearly 14,000 people, at Detroit, saw the battle. Both scores came in the over- time, after a smashing, lightning- fast battle that brought action at every minute. The overtime also was unusual in that five penalties were called during its 10-minute duration, Howie Morenz scored for the Canadiens with three minutes to play, when he skated down the boards alone and shot a hard one that filtered through Dollie Dol- son's skate and abrely into the net. Then, skating fast and battling ev- ery inch of the way, Reg. Noble got a break and flipped a shot from alongside the net to beat Goalie Hainsworth, The fans were given excitement every minute of the game, and the overtime kept them on their feet, yellling.

If they do nothing more, they have made hoec- key history and in its.manufacture treated Toronto fans to two tense ice tilts that held their full quota of thrills and spills and drama. Sat- urday afternoon at the Arena gar- dens "they again matched their speed against the experienee of a hard-bitten band of Kitchener vet- erans and came from behind to eli- minate the O.H.A. intermediate champions and to qualify to meet Varsity senior titleholders for the right to, represent Ontario in the Allan Cup playdowns. The men of the north won the game by 3 to 1 and the round by 4 to 3. Kitchener entered the second game with a one-goal lead, earned in the first engagement but a craz- ily bounding lob wiped out this ad- vantage in the first period and then the northerners scored goal for goal with the awakened Green- shirts in the middle session and in the final dash netted the lone tally that sent Kitchener tumbling into the limbo of the eliminated. Evans The Threat Through the Eskimos' dash to victory runs the wily, carefully planned action of "Stew" Evans the stocky lad from the Ottawa Valley, who reached the heights of stardom from his position, on the Eskimos' defence, If the northern- ers had lost it would have been a tragedy of lost opportunities, of wings overskating the play, of puckcarriers tossing away pass af- ter pass, and attackers sWinging past the angle which gave them the opportunity to beat the cool Ber- ner, But they did not lose, and the game became an epiq of faith- ful backchecking that carried on through lagging minutes of ex- haustion, of terrific bodychecking on the defence and of goaltending that was superb in effectiveness and style. The teams: Iroquois Falls--Goal, Kerr; de- fence, Evans and Huggins; centre, Wipers; wings, Fraser and Chirco- ski; subs, Wilson and Trottier. Kitchener--Goal, Berner; de- fence, Karges and Kuntz; centre, Roth; wings, Shirk and Molson; subs, Schneider and Lehnen, Referee--Harry Watson, Toron- to. MAROONS LOSE FIFTH STRAIGHT Montreal, Mar, 11.--The Mont- real Maroons are still slipping. Saturday at the Forum they lost their fifth straight game when the New York Americans eased through to a 3 to 2 victory in a game that ran the gamut from the worst hockey seen here this sea- son to real thrilling work by both teams,, The win kept alive the Americans' hope that they will ov- erhaul Canadiens and finish the regular scheduled season in first place, while the loss for Maroons made it possible that they still may be relegated to the cellar of the Canadian section. To win the game last night, the New Yorkers played steady and consistent hockey throughout. The Maroons, on the other hand, were Although it was supposed to be the last big affair of the season when the Toronto Victorias brought down cight rinks to play friendly games with the Oshawa curlers it was by no means a dull affair, The locals had the majority at the end of the afternoon's play, by only four shots, showing how evenly matched the games were. It was not all close riv- alry, however, some rinks losing or winning by a larger score than other, while a gay spirit of fun and laugh- ter was present throughout the en- tire afternoon and evening, In the evening the Toronto curlers were the guests of the Cobourg club on the Oshawa ice and here again they were defeated, but only by seven shots. After the afternoon game the To- rofito curlers were dined by the Osh- Tor, Victoria G. Morrison Oshawa C. McDougall Geo. W. Hendry G. Dennison W. H. Ross T. Wallace W. A. Hoar ,.,10 B, H.
