After seven minutes of battling, Bryant bad Lit- tle pretty near at his mercy. He tried a shoulder hold on Little but 'the latter squirmed to the edge of the mat when it seemed he would succumb to the strength of Bryant.

An extra round was or- dered, and from the start the mill- ing continued. Hill pounded Adams' face and sent him to his knees. The McGill man was groggy and Hill got the decision. 134 1bs, boxing--Gardiner of Queen's vs. H.,F. Robertson; of Var- sity. Gardiner was considerably shorter. Both men sparred a great deal in the first round. Robertson's long reach warding off his oppon- ent's blows. Scarcely one good blow was landed in the entire round. ' The bout warmed up in 'the second round Robertson landing effectively ' and blocking as well. In the hird round Gardiner left many opénings, though he fought hard. Gardiner took a heavy. mauling and finally was knocked to his knees, where he re- mained and Robertson was given the deéision. 145 lbs, wrestling--Touzel of Mc- Gill vs. Ide of Queen's.

With a stiff body hold Touzel '_ strained every nerve for a fall, and threw Ide over but just missed getting his should- ers down.

Touzel got the decision. 158 Ibs. wrestling--Sparling of Varsity vs. Nagel of Queen's. " Both men stayed up for two minutes and then Sparling secured a leg hold but the elusive Nagel broke from it.

There was no fall but Sparling was awarded the decision. 147 Ibs. boxing--Taylor, MeGill, vs. Goodman, Queen's. In the first round the McGill man forced the fight with Goolfffian doing plenty of covering, trying to protect himself from the head blows shot at him. Both men mixed it up well before the end 'of the round, hoWever, and gave the Gallery some excitement. Goodman 'showed mote life in the second round and played his oppon- ent hard with smashes to the face and head but Taylor was game and gave back what he could. Goodman hit hard but in the third round Tay- lor drew first blood when Goodman's nose started to spurt. Goodman weakened badly and Taylor wallop- ed him hard and more than made. up for whatever' he took in the first two rounds. He was awarded the decision but as he left the ring Good- man was given a great hand by the crowd for his game fight. 160 Tos. boxing---Pidler of Varsity vs. Gordie Hughes of McGill. Fia- ler was the winner of the bout but he was given a hard go by the popu- lar McGill boxer before the énd of the third round. In the first frame Hughes let loose with some severe wallops to the face but the bigger Blue and White man several times batted Hughes hard. 'It was 'the To- ronto man's round. In the second round Hughes be. gan to bleed at the nose. He tried long range sweeps and though they had effect. a couple of times, they were useless most of the time. The Toronto fighter showed much better condition and Hughes was put on the ropes several times. Hughes tried swinging himself from the ropes and letting forth lusty swings but Fidler was quick to dodge. Hughes' condition went bad and , was plainly tired out. Hughes jym at his opponent and made wild swings but the latter wallops that ave him a rether easy ye a 2 ibs. boxing--Howard, Suse' 5, Varsity--Howard 'who did not attempt to "mix it up" "i ing over the ice after a trip or a | only to be turned '| Belleville's final goal on a pretty io- and Howard laced neat wallops at Mahon's head and face.

CORNWALL PUTS BELLEVILLE 001 Defeated Quinte Oity Sextette In-Playoff Game Here Last Night -by 4-2. Hectic Struggle From Start Yo Finish With Crowd Wildly Exoited. In the most héctic and roughest struggle for supremacy in Canada's national winter sport séen in King- ston in. some time, Cornwall defeat- ed Belleville by a score of 4-2 at the Arena last night before a crowd of about 2,000 wildly excited fans, qualifying to meet Oshawa for the honors of Intermediate O.H.A. group No. 1 Very seldom has there been so much excitement crammed into sixty minutes of hockey on local ice and the majority of the fans, includ- ing the fair sex could not Qecome settled for any length of time. Dasz- zling individual work, wonderful work on the part of both net guard- fans and hostile situations brought the crowd to 'their 'feet time after time to bellow out their approval or disapproval. Referee H. Farlow, of Toronto, had the hardest game on his hands that he is likely to referee for many games to come and although the rough play was prevalent, he hand- led the game fairly well, Penalties were handed out like posters but de- spite this the slashing, tripping and individual brawls continued, At one point of the game, Cornwall had three players resting in the cooler but Belleville failed to score while they were off. There was very little combination work attempted and all that was tried was soon broken up by the untiring and stiff back-check- ing of both teams. The Cornwall players all seemed to have perfect condition and while on the ice they toge, around like mad men, back- cheeking and. sweeping down the ice for attacks on Boland continually. In 'this manner they held the fast working Maroon forwards in check and gave them very few opportuni- ties to attempt team work. Filion, the goal tender, was the shining star for the winners. Shots from all angles were peppered at him with machine like precision but he coolly turned every one aside with the exception of two, which wefe next to impossible to keep out. In the last five mTiutes of play in the final session he was literally deluged with the rubber but staved off the consistent attacks of the Maroons. Dextra was also outstanding and scored three of the goals for Corn- wall. His work was both brilliant and steady and all of his tallies were notched on individual work. He proved a wonder at back-checking and broke up attacks time after time. E. Constant turned in a beau- titul game on defence, his work on the offensive also being nice. His stick work was very neat and many timeés he sailed through the whole Belleville team, only to. be turned back by Boland. He was about the only player on the Cornwall team and bis hockey ability stood out prominently. His three brothers also worked well and with him formed a quartette of strong hockey players. Hagerman and 8. Goyer stood the brunt of the attack for thé Ma- roons and both stood up well under terrific body 'checking. Hagerman worked like a slave but could not break through the heavy checking and many times he was sent sprawl- cheek, He felt the effects of the hard usage and in the second period was forced out of the game for some time. He returned again, however, and kept up his hard work. 8. Goyer was a tower of strength on the de ar well and roy up Seoen Dlayes the final stanza when he WOR | repeatedly rushed down on Filion SPORTING NOTES AND COMMENT Howard of Queen's put up a dandy fight against Mahon of Varsity in the 175-pound class at the Intercollegiate assault-at-arms last night. The fight was one of the best of the programme and the decision for Howard was a popular one. Filion," the Cornwall net guardian, appeared as a wonder last night How he kept out all the shots that were in the game with Belleville. piled on him in the last period was a mystery to the fans. 2 h The opinion last night was that neither Belleville nor Cornwall are as good as the Kingston intermediates when it comes to Teal hockey. The Cornwall team is not expected to go very far. The two attractions last night were hard ones for the sport followers to choose between, but both were well attended. X It was reported that' Cornwall were playing the game last night under a protest. They claimed that Hibbard who subbed for Belleville, was a resident of Picton and, therefore, not eligible to play. As Picton for the Maroons. test now. a The local juniors are keeping in practice for their games next week. i was not represented in the Intermediate O.H.A., he was eligible to play |} At any rate, Cornwall will not be anxious for any pro- |i They will play home-and-home games with the Markham juniors, who are reported.to be very strong this year. Gordie Hughes, who boxed last night, will be remembered by local fans, having attended R.M.C., where he was very prominent in 'all sports. Hughes played with McGill's senior football team last season. dividual piece of work in the final stanza and made many more at- tempts which were very close to be- ing succéssful. Weir was very effec- tive and like H. Contant of the Corn- wall team, played a very clean game. Boland's work in the nets was very good and he handled somé very dit- ficult shots during the game, ! First Period. The teams started off at & killing pace and the rough play was not long in starting. James started Corn- wall's attack when he worked in on Boland for an unsuccessful attempt. Belleville were on the defensive in the opening minutes of play and A. Contant, HB. Contant and Dextra tested Boland many times. Green opened Belleville's attack on a nice effort and a few minutes later G. Goyer missed a pass from Hagerman with an open net facing him. -Three Cornwall men were sitting on the penalty bench for about a minute but' Belleville could not tally, although Green worked Filion very hard more than once. Boland was given a busy session by B. and A, Contant who rushed the length of the ice many times to wing a wicked shot at the Maroon net minder. After about fif- teen minutes of play, Dextra opened the scoring column on a solo effort, drawing Boland out of the nets after slipping through the defence. Rushes by the Goyer brothers and Hagerman were features of the play for a while till A. Contant opened up another attack -on Boland. Before the per- fod closed, Hagerman received a nasty crack over the head from A. Contant's stick and the Cornwall player was sent to the cooler. Both goal tenders warded off many at- tempts at scoring and the period ended with Cornwall holding their one goal lead. Second Period. The second period was, productive of the best hockey of the game, the teams easing up somewhat on rough play. Belleville had the better of the argument in' this stanza apd worked Filion very hard. Combina- tion Work on the part of G. Goyer, Burns and Hagerman brought no re- sults and G, Goyer uncorked a lone rush, Filion making a pretty save. Hagerman slipped in a nifty shot and Dextra taking the puck at his own defence line, worked his way down to slip oné by Boland into the cor- ner after about eight minutes of play for his second goal of the game. About a mipute later Weir fooled Filion on a waist high shot and Soap ed Belleville's first goal. Hagerm: was hurt at this period of The pl nr and was forced to retire. The Gayer brothers and Weir 'engineered some henvy attacks bat could not fathom one but they were held at bay by Filion. The teams: CORNWALL, BELLEVILLE, Goal, , Filion Boland Defence. E. Contant M.
