PAGE SIX THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1930 | THREE GAMES OF INDUSTRIAL "POP" HOCKEY AT ARENA TONIGHT Jack Sharkey Wins Bout From Phil. Scott Tech. K.O. in Third Round Scott Claims a Foul Early in Third Round, But After His Claim Is Disallowed He Continues the Fight * Only to Lose by Technical Knockout a Minute Later (By Alan Gould, Associated Press Sports Editors) +e Ringside, Miami, Fla,, Feb. 28. ~The crowning touch to one of the biggest fight fiascos in many years was applied last night when Jack Sharkey. the generally recognized American heavyweight champion was declared the winner over Phil Scott, pale British titleholder, on a technical knockout in the third round of a 15-round match, 'After scenes of extraordinary co ifusion, and following the granting of a minute's rest to Scott on a claim of foul, Sharkey's hand was lifted in victory by Referee fou Magnolia. as the Briton, weak and manifesting extreme agony, re- fused to continue the bout, The finish came with Scott still erect but reeling helplessly into the ropes after absorbing a terrific left hand punch to the stomach. Scott had been floored once In the second round and twice in the third round before the enactmert of scenes that put an almost un- precedented touch to the conclusion of a thoroughly unsatisfactory con- test. Sharkey was warned once for hitting low before landing a second hook to the body which sent Seott to the floor, holding his side and writhing as if in agony. As the Briton's manager and handlers leaped into the ring, to add to the confusion. Referee Mag- nolia halted the fight without in- dicating any decision before an ex- amination. When neither the ref- erce nor an examining physician agreed with Scott's claim of foul, the Briton was immediately given the choice of continuing the fight under his own power or of having Sharkey promptly declared the vic- Tr. "itn the end of a minute's res- pite Scott agreed to fight, the ring was cleared and Sharkey. who had been dashing about like a wild man, rushed at his foe mercilessly. The Briton clinched and tried to save himself, but was limpinz constantly gripping his side and grimacing in a manifestation of ex- treme pain. Backed finally against the ropes Phil took a smashing blow to the stomach, a left hook, and sagged. Although the blow clearly was fair, several inches NEW MARTIN & Tomorrow, Monday Tuesday Jack Mulhall «DARK STREETS" DUAL ROLE TALKING PICTURE Add Attractions COMEDY "Hot and How" "Colored Musical Rhapsody" Last Episode of "ACE OF SCOTLAND YARD" Last Times Tonight _"TANNED LEGS" J lan LN apitor niertainmgn + 'BASIL RATHBONE, LEILA HYAMS, ROLAND YOUNG, GEORGE F..

Magnolia uphestitatingly stepped in, asked Scott whether he wanted fo continue, and when ad- vised in the negative, turned to lift the raging Sharkey's hand in vic- tory. The fight was stopped after two minutes and 34 seconds of actual fighting in the third round, but due to the interval of rest for Scott, lasted a minute longer. Scott's manager, Jimmy John- ston, protested volubly and de- clared later that Referee Magnolix originally had disqualified Shar- key, but the sole arbiter of the bout denied this and flatly declared he had not seen Sharkey hit a foul blow at any time. The final punch, Magnolia sald, was squarely in the pit of the stomach and left no pos- sible room for argument, Referee Lou Magnelia, as events piled upon him, thick and fast, in the confusing third round, exhibit- ed little hesitation in his handling of the situation, On the second low punch, result- ing in Scott's claim of foul, Mag- nolia said neither he nor the ex- amining doctor discovered any ill- effects, Magnolia declared he thon gave Scott the alternative of con- tinuing the fight, after a minute's rest, or of losing the decision, Fin- ally, said Magnolia, the blow which ended the fight, with Scott refus- ing to continue, was squarely in the stomach. Magnolia amplified this later by saying that he gave Scott the min- i IT'S ALL O The great F. NOW heavyweight battle between Jack Sharkey, right, and Phil, Scott, left, is now a thing of the past, Scott claimed a foul soon after the third round had com- menced but after an examination by the referee and an physician, the foul attending 1s disal'owed. Referee Lou Magnolia gave Scott the choice of continuing or fore feiting the fight. Scott lasted an- other minute and then Sharkey was given the decision on a Technical Knockout. The bout was slated for fifteen rounds but it was all over after two minutes and fifteen sec onds of the third round. As there were only about 25,000 people present, the fight has been a Joss to the promoters. RAT 1 LnALd Hamilton ute's rest to remove any chance for a '"'squawk'" in question as to the, Briton's condition, | OTTAWA----3, DETROIT--3 Detroit, Feb. 28.--For two per-| fods Ottawa's Senators and Detroit | Cougars went through the motions | of a National Hockey League game | here last night, and then they set- tled down to business. Both teams put up a lively third period battle, and, with the score tied two all, went into an equally lively over time, each team scoring in the ex- tra period, but the score stood at a 3-3 tie when the final whistle sounded. Playing listless hockey in the first two periods, with loose pass- ing and ragged offensive attacks, Detroit managed to hold a 2-1 lead at the end of the second frame. Then Hee XKilrea got away and ties up the score in the third ses- sion. In the overtime period, Kil- rea again scored, and it appearea the game was Ottawa's but Ebbie Goodfellow took advantage of a break and snapped the puck past Connell as it' rebounded from a shot made by McCabe, Neither team could break the tie after this, Alberta Rink Wins Again Toronto, Feb. 28.--That a good lead at the start is just as import- ant in curling as in any other con- test was demonstrated beyona doubt at the Granite rink last evening when in the eighth round of the competition for the single rink championship of Canada Bob- by Munro's quarte'te from Edmon- ton defeated R. B. McLeod's Saska- toon four by 13 to 11 and thereby retained the leadership in the fourth annual competition with seven wins and one loss with only one game to play. In this game, which was considered by many te determine whether Munro would win the trophy or be forced to ap- pear in a play-off, the Albertans broke away to a flying start and were in front by 11 to 3 at the completion of the seventh end. This appeared to be an insur- mountable lead, and it was but the opinion shared by almost all the members of the record-sized gallery at the start of the eighth, and cama near being tossed aside as McLeod staged a great come-back on the eighth, ninth and tenth, to reduce the winners' lead to one of two shots. But just when it looked as if Munro might possibly sustain his second defeat of the competition of the day and in succession; the Saskatchewan attack faltered and the Edmonton "Kids" came through to almost clinch the honors of the four-day competition, Soo Greyhounds Win From North Bay Trappers Sault Ste, Marie, Ont., Feb. 27, ---Defeating the North Bay Trap- pers by a 7-0 count in the second game of a two-game series to de- cide the championship of the south- ern section of the N.O.H.A, junior series, the Sault Greyhounds eara- ed the right t» enter the finals for the Association Trophy here to- night. The Sault won the round 14-2. This victory gives the Sault permanent possession of the Me- Namara Cup, donated by George MeNamara, former Greyhound coach, some years ago for com- petition in the southern section of the N.O.H.A. This is the third successive time the Greyhounds have won the trophy. x In the game last night the Trap- pers fought hard in an effort to Lold the Greyhounds in chock. They played a far better game than they did in the first contest of the series when the localy won 7-2, but all their efforts avalled nothing |matches take place in the afternoon, Sr. "B" Team Enters Final Hamilton, Feb. 28.---Hamilton | increased their margin to seven goals on the round over Woodstock here last night when they walked off with the second game on the scries by a score of 5 to 2. Three of their counters came in the last frame when they came out of state of coma to display their real | wares. Going into tonight's fracas | with a four-goal lead in their fav- | or, the result of a ¢ to 2 victory in the first game on Moaday night, the local puckchasers relied entire ly on individual efforts and decfen- | sive hockey. This was just what th Industrial City sextet wanted, and they carried the play to Hamilton to hold them even for the [first] 40 minutes, cach team scoring two | counters. The third told a differ- ent story, when the Hamilton squad | went into action in real earnest and dished up a combined game that completely bewildered the Western Ontario representatives, Thre times they beat Lynch, and 'that gentleman had to stop twice many more as the Hamilton wards buzzed right in on top him for what looked like sure coun- ters. The first period wad goalless and productive of the worst hockey dished up here in O.H.A, circles | this season. Just after the second | period got under way Louch drilled | a fast one from the blue line that Lynch was unable tc reach. The | locals ehjoyed the one-goal margin | for the next sixteen minutes when | Thrower scored to equal the count, | but one minute later Oliver and | Louch combined for a counter, and { just before tho bell sounded Bell tied it up when he batted in the rubber from a scramble in front | of the Hamilton net. { The third period opened with | members of both teams roughing ft up, but when Referee Balkwill be- gan to rule with an iron hand the player paid strict attention to the | rubber, and all through the period | the visitors were seldom in the picture, Seven minutes after opened Schwab batted in a rebound to give Hamilton a one-goal edge. Three minutes later McGowan ana Louch combined for another Ham- ilton counter, and just before the period ended Louch drove home another counter to make it five two on the night, and 11 to 4 on the round. JAPAN'S NATIONAL SPORT, WRESTLING Tokyo, Feb. 28--Despite the tre- mendous popularity of baseball, ski- ing and other sports that have come in from abroad, the real national game of Japan, sumo wrestling. con- tests, still holds its own. Patronized for centuries by emperors and the nobility as well as by all other class- es of society, sumo 1s still the great magnet for crowds. Japan, indeed, takes as much in- terest in the New Year's tournaments between eastern and western cham- pions as Canada takes in a national ice hockey championship or the Un- ited States in a world series baseball series, While the sumo tournament is on crowds gather around bulletin boards = displayed outside shops throughout the city tellng the result of the various contests, The prowess of the sumo depends largely on sheer weight, as well as muscle and skill. The latter develop ment congludes not only successfully pushing over the opponent and de- feating him by forcing him to touch the ground, or out of the ring; he must maintain his own balance. Some of the sumor wrestlers weigh more than 400 pounds and there is a great wrestler from Korea who is more than seven feet tall, Each day of the tournament there are several hundred contests, taking twelve hours to complete, The best a as for- ot between sumo who are ranked in the makunouchi. Of these contests there before the determincg play of the Greyhounds. qoont SNAPSHOT By Guo.

The team leaves Australia on March 12. It is practically a new team and English cricketers are asking themselves who will oppose it? This winter = there has been no absence from the sport- ing pages of reports of cricket mat- ches as English teams have been touring New Zealand and the West Indies. The doings of these teams have been watched very. closely for evidences of new test match mate- rial. In New Zealand Prince Duleep- sinhji, who was played last year against South Africa with no suc- cess, has been putting up splendid scores while the veteran Frank Wol- ley has been good with both bat and ball. A bowler of promise has turn- ed up in M. J. C. Allom, the Surrey amateur, The West Indies tour has been a series of triumphs for Pat Hendren, the old England and Mid- dlesex player, whose retirement from international cricket has been freely predicted.' English cricketers are re- conciled to the breaking up of the great first wicket combination of Jack Hobbs and Herbert Sutcliffe by the retirement of the former, Though Hobbs led the English batting aver- ages again last year it is known he is willing and anxious to five way are about 23. Be ---------- to a younger man. No one turned Ce up last season in the tests agains South Africa capable of filling hi place. Wally Hammond, who ac complished such wonders in the las tour of Australia, is the ideal ma for a second wicket stand though he and Sutcliffe team well together, He may be promoted to first wicket, but to do this will mean changing a dash- ing batsmen into a stonewaller. For the balance of the batsmen England has a wealth of. material. Her dren's great West Indies showing may earn him a place and Leyland of Yorkshire will be sure to be chos- en. There will be a difficult task be- fore the selection committee when it comes to picking a wicketkeeper. Duckworth, Lancashire, is one of the finest men England has ever had be- hind the stumps, but Ames of Kent is not only a high class wicketkeep- er, but a very useful batsman. Eng- land's old battery of bowlers is avail- able, including Maurice Tate of Sus- sex, Harold Larwood of Notting- hamshire and White of Somerset. Engiand's captain will present an- other problems. Chapman led Eng- land to victory and the recovery of the "ashes" in 1926 and their reten- tion in Australia in 1928-29. He played very little alst season and Carr, skipper of the Nottinghamshire club, county champions, led England against South Africa, succeeding White. Carr was superseded by Chapman in 1926. Australia is pitting against England the youngest team cver sent across the seas with the exception of the 1880 side. At this date it looks as if England will have to rely very largely on old timers, Dates of test matches follow: Nottingham, first test, June 13, 11, 16 and 17, J t t 1 | Varsity Srs.

Kitchener Wins From Brantford Kitchener, J¥eb. 28.--Tallying one goal in each period, Kitchener defeated Brantford 3 to 0 at the Auditorium here last night, thus climbing into a tie again with «dit for second place in the Canadian Professional League standing, The Galt team and the locals meet here Saturday night when second place will be at stake, The first period was just fair hockey but after that the game Was good, though only a small crowd witnessed the affair. The winners deserved the verdict as they played more aggressive hockey and they bored in closer before shooting. The Brants were kept farther out due to good defensive work, Ach- tzuer being back on the Kitchener inner guard and this made quite a difference, The two goalers distinguished themselves with some clever goal- keeping, and in this respect honors were about even.

Burgoyne Winning Coach Halifax, N.8., Feb, 28--Five Up- per Canadian hockey coaches han- dled Nova Scotia amateur clubs during the season now closing and, while not all could be successful, especially when four of them han- dled teams in the same league, the Eastern Nova Scotia loop, hockey | followers of the province are in- | clined to believe that the coaches proved of very little benefit to hoe- | key here this year. | One coach admittedly made | good. Not because his team hap- pened to win the Eastern League | but because Stan Burgoyne, from "somewhere in Ontario," by { coaching and handling, gave the | town of Truro the best Canadiens its string previous to this season. Burgoyne has about the same players that finished in a tie for second piace in the Fastern League last year but he has instilled team- work into his players and handiword {is perhaps the hockey machine to represent Province in many years. Nova Scotia has boasted many hockey teams but few hockey machines And there is a difference. Other coaches were not over suc- cessful, Louis Eerlinauette to finest the ly before the dawn of 1930 and made litle or no improvement, the team finishing last in the league and winning only half a dozen games in 18, Steve Vair, who coached the Allan Cup champions, Port Arthur, in 1929, failed to place the Wolverines, their league honors won gon under the guiding hand of Coach Joe Matte, into the league playoffs, Coach Walter Smalill, Kentville, put his team into playoffs but the Wildcats plaved owd of over five thousand fan { no better hockey during the sea- y ) i 2 USan( ans son than they did in the previous season, At Sydney, Cape Breton, Hector Lepine took over a home- brew team, added . three Upper Canadians and won the regular A.P.C.B, series. In the league play- offs the Stellarton Oaklands, a voung team coached by the veteran Chester Gregory, former star of Provineial hockey, defeated the Sydney Millionaires by a five goal margin in home and home games. Coach Joe Matte was a sensation here in 1929 He took over the Hal- ifax Wolverines when they were floundering around in cellar posi- tion, in the Eastern League and taught them sound hockey and splendid teamwork. With a fair team Matte led his charges to the Maritime finals, losing by a sinzle goal. In some 30 games the Wol- verines played under Matte they lost four and tied one. They won the rest. Matte coached the Bath- urst Papermakers this year.
