PAGE EIGH1 THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, APRIL 1, 1929 0S AND PORT ARTHUR IN SUPREME HOCKEY HONORS Port Arthur Wins 3-0 .. . To Capture Allan Cup Winnipeg Team Unable to Clever Combination of 0. H. A. Champions -- Conacher, Jackson and Hackett Score Goals for Winners--Levinsky Also Stars -- Elmwoods Try Hard, But Tire Under Heavy Pace Winnipeg, April 1.--For the 3rd time in five seasons, Port Arthur sits enthroned as monarch of Cana= dian amateur hockey. A rival bid for the kingship, by Montrgal's St. Francois Xavier intermediates, Eastern champions, was finally crushed Saturday night as the Lake- men triumphed 3 to 0 in the third battle of the Allan Cup final. The series ended in a stick-swinging me- | lee of bodychecks and fisticuffs. Undefeated, the thrice-crowned titlists galloped through an impres- sive series; after a one-all opening game tie, they collared successive 7 to 2 and 3 to 0 victorles. Scoring once in the first period and twice in the mid-session of the last St. Francois stand, the Lake- men virtually cinched the Allan Trophy, leaving the closing 20 min- utes for a conflict that vergea on the free-for-all. Nearly 6,000 excited hockey-lov- ers gazed wild-eyed on the panor- ama of wing-footed hockey speed at its best for 40 minutes, follow- ed by willow-wielding recklessness at its worst, through a 20-minute session. The climax came with only four minutes of the series remain- ing, when Creighton and Baril clashed, and the rapid succession of thrills left the mobs of specta- tors limp and gasping at the gong. A Wild Ending Slurred verbally by Goalkeeper (sagnon as he swooped in on a re- bound, Jimmy Creighton, scoring star of the series, turned on the St. Francois netman. In an instant Tony Baril, Montreal rightwinger, joined the duel, moving to strike down young Creighton. The Ports' curly<haired centre man sent Baril reeling with a straight right and the referees rushed in to quell the riot, in which every player seemed eager to join, Baril and Creigh- ton, main-bout performers, were banished for five minutes, and there were but four minutes to go. Cheers and boohs took on a fren- zied mote, but the piece de resist- ance was yet to be enacted. Mem- bers of the rival teams surrounded Referee Stan Burgoyne as he skat- ed unmindful to the penalty box with the misereéant pair. Then Lu- cien Gagnon, St, Francois goalkeep- er, ranged alongside Burgoyne and swept the referee's feet from under him with a flick of the padded leg. In a moment, the bold netman was elbowing his way into the cooler for a minute's stay and Andre Bour- goiun, sub forward, was brandish- ing a goal-stick in the Montreal cage. How the Goals Were Scored Creighton opened up the play for the Port's initial goal, beating the defence and passing to Jarvis close in. The latter whipped the disc at Gagnon's pads, and Cliff Barton sped across from right wing to ham- mer in the rebound. Paul Gagnon was in the cooler at the time. It was the lone tally of the starting session. A Cox-to-Creighton passing sally counted one of the second session goals and paved the way for an- other. One minute later, before the period was three-quarters gone, the same pair cut down to the Bru- net-Ahearn wall, but Jimmy passed the rubber on to Jarvis, whose drive left the goalkeeper no chance.' The Montreal crew pressed in the waning minutes by sending all but the goalkeeper to the attack. Port Arthur--Goal, Baker; de- fence, Wilson and Gross; centre, Creighton; wings, Barton and Jar- vis; subs, L'Heureux, Cox and Fri- day. St. Francois--Goal, L. Gagnon; defence, Brunet and Ahearn; cen- tre, P. Gagnon; wings, Baril and Pedneault; subs Carroll, Bourgouin and Valois, Judge of play--Harry Watson of Toronto. Referee--Stan Burgoyne, South Porcupine, Ont. SMART BOY Willesden Magistrate: Are you old enough to be married? Young man: Yes, but not silly enough.--Tit-Bits.

Canadian-American Play-Off Boston Tig.. . .3 Providence .0 Detroit Wins First of Canpro Final Games Detroit, April 1.--Detroit Olym- pics started their Canadian Hockey League final series by earning a victory over Windsor here last night, 2 to 1. When 14,540 paid their way into Olympia for the oc- casion, they set a new attendance record for the rink and for minor hockey anywhere. The battle lived up to all expec- tations. It was a gruelling, close- checking affair from start to fin- ish, with the verdict settled by the breaks. Playing without Pete -Bellefeu- ille, their regular rightwinger, who broke a bone in his hand in the semi-final round with Toronto, the Olympics had just enough edge to deserve their win. They put up a stronge defence in front of Herbie Stewart, and they had both speed and combination on the attack. Eddie Goodfellow stood out as the hero of the night for Detroit. He proved Johnny on the spot twice, and each time he picked an opening. After a goalless first period, Goodfellow made it 1-0 late in the second. Fraser had rounded the Windsor defence only to have Cox beat him with a spectacular save. Goodfellow was there to snaret he rebound and he calmly circled away from Cox, who was out to meet him and flipped the disc into an ab- solutely empty net, Windsor tied it up after eign minutes of play in the third per- iod, Emms taking Brown's passout from the corner and whipping a hard shot past Stuart. It looked like an overtime affair, but, with less than seven minutes to go, Goodfellow picked up a loose puck at the Windsor defence and had only Cox to beat. He skated in close and picked the corner, witn Cox sprawling in a vain effort to save. Seventeen minor penalties were meted out, nine to Windsor and 8 to Detroit. Windsor--Goal, Cox; defence, Arbour and Brown; centre, Rod- den; wings, Emms and Carson; subs, Neville, Roach, Sorrell, Gregg and Bellemer. Detroit--Goal, Stuart; defence, Rockburn and Goodfellow; centre, Gillie; wings, Fillmore and Foys- ton; subs, McCabe, McInenly and Hinsberger. Referees--Lou Marsh, Toronto, and Bobbie Hewitson, Toronto. Windsor Wins Senior Honors London, April 1.--Windsor Col- legiate Alumni, presnt holders of the Senior Ontario Basketball championship, again captured the honors Saturday evening when they defeated the Toronto West End Y.M.C.A. team 34 to 25 in the third and deciding game play- ed at the technical school gym, her, before thé season's largest crowd. The London Y.M.C.A. aces were nosed out by the Toronto West End Y.Y.C.A. intermediates in the preliminary game by the score of 26 to 22. The London team was leading at half-time only to .have Toronto stage a great come-back in the final half. BETTER 100 YARD WORLD'S RECORD Dallas, Tex., April 1, -- Claude Bracey, sensational southwest sprinter, bettered the oficial world's record for the 10-yara aash for the second time, when he ran thed istance in 9.4 seconds at the southern Methodist University rel- ays Saturday. At the Texas relays Friday in Austin, Bracey was clocked in 9.5 sec.s, the marking generally recog- nized in the United States, but the oficial world record is 9.6 sec- onds.

All right,' said the amateur highway- man, and receiving the money he hande over the weapon. "Now" sald the traveller, "hand back thay money or I'll. blow your br=ins out!"

CROSS-COUNTRY RACE WELL STARTED Elizabeth, N.J., April 1.,--Out of a welter of curious Easter Sunday promenaders jamming Columbus Circle so that even the runners were lost in the crowd, Charles C. ("Cash and Carry" )Pyle's second annual cross-country foot-race started from New York yesterday and paused at Elizabeth, first step on the way to Los Angeles, Cal., with Ed.

The eighty-one assorted sizes off athletes, after fighting their way through a mob of close t 025,000 at the start, jogyed through the city street, sailed across the Hud- soon river on the municipal ferry and pedalled through Weehawken, Jersey City, Harrison and into El- izabeth with almost 500,000 per- sons lining the 24-mile way. ROCCO IN TRAININC FOR COMING BOUT -- Toronto, April 1.--Steve Rocco is attending strictly to the work of preparing himself for his bout with Routier Parra, Chilean flyweight champioa, which is scheduled to take place at the Coliseum one week from tonight. The former Canadian champion is in the best of condition and the bounding Par- ra will meet a foeman worthy of his best efforts. Frankie "Red" Ed- gerton, Toronto boy, who was for- merly Corporal Izzy Schwartz's sparring partner, is helping Rocco and the pair go through several hard rounds of boxing each day. Rocco is a challenger for two championships, the world. title and the Canadian crown, which he held until outpointed by Frenchy Belan- ger last June. With a yisit from Emile Pladner likely, the flashy Toronto Italian hopes to earn u match with the Frenchman. He will have made a good start if he de- feats Parra, who has proven him- self one of the most pleasing fly weights in the game. Parra has only boxed here once, but he boasts an excellent record, having met many of the stars of his division. He has beaten, among others, Black Bill and Marty Gold, both of whom have appeared here. The Chilean's bout, with Willie La Morte was an exciting affair all the way. Parra, showing an eagerness to battle in spite of the heavy hit- ting of La Morte, made himself a favorite with the fans and there were no dissenting voices when he was declared the winner on a foul in the eighth round. Rocco and Parra have similar styles and should provide a very interesting bout.

E. Fulford Canadian Press Sports Writer) Toronto, April 1.--Rugged body checking their opponents could not match and a fast, accurate shooting forward line won for Toronto Marl- boros the junfor amateur hockey championship of Canada and the Memorial Cup Saturday night. Playing Winnipeg Elmwood Mil- lionaires in the second game of their -two-out-of-three Dominion final series, the Torontonians won by four goals to two from the West- ern Canada titlists and carried off Dominion honors. The score was the same as it was Thursday when Marlboros won the first game here. Marlboro's victory brought them to the close of the long, tedious trail they have followed to the Do- minion finals. Throughout the On- tario Hockey Association schedule they battled teams of almost equal strength but came out on top, most times by only a goal or two. BSat- urday night they followed their usual plan of getting a goal and holding it, forcing their rivals to make the pace and wear themselves into exhaustion trying to overcome the advantage. Tied 1-1 at the end of the first period, the Eastern Canada cham- pions went into the lead in the second with a goal half way through the frame and increased their advantage in the third with two markers, while the Winnipeg suburbanites could snare only one. Without the full-time services of the defergsive ace, Ellis Pringle, Marlboro's nevertheless held a steady advantage over the western sextet throughout. Although al- most as heavy a team as the Dukes, Elmwoods failed to use their weight to good advantage. On the other hand, Marlboros' sturdy defence of Levinsky and Montgomery, with Pringle alternating for short per- iods, crashed into the Millionaire forwards on every rush they made and protected their goalie while appreciably slowing up the west- erners. Marlboros individually shaded equality in the victory, their pass- ing and clever individual work giv- ing each player a great share of the glory. Elmwoods, while defeated, need not feel that they were out- classed, for their 'game' display against a speedier, heavier checking and more experienced team made them many friends among Torontd hockey fans. Marlboros--Goal, Moore; de- fence, Montgomery and Levinsky; centre, Convey; wings, Jackson and Conacher; alternates, Darragh, Hackett and Pringle. Elmwoods--Goal, Holmes; de- fence, Gill and Burrage; centre,' Duncansgon; wings, Muckle and Mc- uade; alternates, Kirk, Kendali and White. Officials--Blondell and Hemphill.

Saturday night, Marlboros Win Memorial Cup By Second 4 to 2 Victory + WEEKLY MEETING IMPORTANT The attendance at the regular meetings of the City and Industrial League have not been up to the mark and the officials have had some difficulty in getting ahead with the business owing to the poor attendance. There is to be a meeting to- morrow night at the Y. and the league would like to see one or more representatives from every team entered on hand to help in deciding mat- ters of importance. A del- egation from the local league attended the annual conclave on Good Friday and they will be present to relate the hap- penings and also' explain any new rulings that are not clear to team managers. Another important item on the books for this ting is financial questions and the team representatives are es- pecially asked to bring the en- try fee with them in order that the committee in charge of the finances will know their position and will be able to act accordingly.
