RE ED FOR DOMINION NALS, BEATING FORT WILLIAM BY 21 Patterson and Hartley Won the Game by Their Goals in the First ; Rough--Referee Mitchell Struck oy Fort William Player--W pariod--- Play Became Very Nearly Mobbed After the Game--Ice Soft and the Going Hard--Many Penalties. {Bpeeclal Despatch to The British Whig.) Fort William, March 23.--King- ston cinched the game against the Fort 'William juniors Saturday night "12 eight minutes of play, by two to one, scoring the winning goal in the first half of the first period, the re- maining 52 minutes of play being : scoreless. The ice was soft and slushy and this seemed to be all in favor of . the heavier boys from the East, who #tcod up under the heavy going bet- their lighter opponents. The puck would not travel and many times there was a face-off for kicking the puck as the result of the man with the puck over-running it and getting his skates mixed . up with it. All day there had been a "bright sun and warm weather so that, when the teams met at nine o'clock, the fce was sticky and wet. At the same time the eastern team won on its merits and, under the circumstances, with their heftiness giving them the advantage, the re- ult, judging by the play could not Have been otherwise. * The Fort William supporters were very much dissatisfied with the re- ng "of Harold Mitchell, who Shey claimed, penalized the Yellow ets for offences which he over- Jooked in the case of the boys with 'the blue "K." So intense was the feeling at the end of the game that Mitchell was nearly mobbed when the bell rang for the last time, Jeaving Kingston victorious by two gcals to one. Mitchell wads escorted " from the rink under police protec- tion, with snowballs shooting at him from all sides. PATTERSON SCORED FIRST. "The first period opened with a rush by the Forts in which Hall was . conspicuous, but Kingston came and held the puck close to the 'William net for a short time, ; Patterson managed to . fool Strang and he scored the first goal in four minutes and thirty-five sec- onds. Fort William was not dis ned by this but attacked more ely and three minutes later 8, who was playing a good game, id matters op & neat pass Five seconds from McLeod. face off after this gosl however, y hit the twine for what prov- to be the last and winning goal of game. One penalty was hand- ed out to McLeod for bunting, and the period ended with the result well in doubt on the form display- ed. Strang had only four to stop and Taugher saved / his net eight times in the first, PLAY ROUGHENED UP. The second period began to show a little more roughness and McKel- vey was the first to take to the pen- alty box, followed shortly after by McLeod, who seemed to be the vie- tim of most of the penalties through the rest of the game. While Mc- Leod was off, Lockhart, the Forts defence man, was put in with him, and the Yellow Jackets were left with one man, Cardinal, on the for- ward line. Kingston made a desperate effort to score another goal at this time, but Cardinal took the offensive and almost broke through to the goal be- fore he was stopped. For the visi- tors Voss, Reid 'and Hdrtley starred the last being slightly hurt in a col- lision but went on playing. The local boys were puzzled by the King- ston style of checking, .which almost amounted to holding, whenever a dangerous rush on goal was made, and were fooled time and again by these tactics. ,The shots on goal were reversed in this period -being eight on Strang and four on Tau- gher, PLAYS CAME FAST. It was in the third that penalties began to come thick and fast. Hard- ly had it opened when. Patterson was put off for tripping.- While he was off Kingston play a three-man de- fence game. Soon after his return Patterson made a swipe at McLeod, who retaliated in kind and both were sent to the box. Next to be put off were Hall and Daley, follow- ed again by Patterson, McLeod and Lockhart, At this time the crowd began to show signs of impatience at Mitchell's refereeing and he was booed every time he sent off a Fort William. boy, and excitement grew iotense when he ruled off Cardinal for three minutes, PLAYER STRUCK MITCHELL, Unfortunately McLeod who had just come on again, lost his head and made a pass with his fists at Mitchell, who again sent him off. For the concluding three minutes of the game Mitchell seemed to lose control of it altogether and between protests from the players and shouts from the benches, he hardly knew who was on and who was off. When the final bell rang the crowd surged on the ice but Mitchell "eluded it: Later he was escorted by the police to Y.M.C.A. building and was smug- gled through the back basement en- trance shortly after. Fort William played without Bolhill, the captain, who had been hurt in the previous game. Voss, Reid, Patterson and Hartley were the strong men of the Kingston team, while Hogg, Hall, McLeod and Strang were the main- stays of the locals, the defence men also playing a hard game. King- ston deserved the victory on the form displayed under conditions that made for slow and non-spec- tacular hockey. Summary and line- upt -- SUMMARY, First Period. Kingston--Patterson--4.35.

KINGSTONS HAVE A HARD TASK Meet a Powerful Team the Calgary Oana- diens. Needless to say, the showing made by 'the Kingston team at Fort Wil- liam on Saturday night brought. joy to hockey fang in Eastern Canada but particularly to those of King- ston, who watched eagerly for the word of progress of the team dar. ing that hectic battle of Saturday night. There is no need to tell of the anxiety that was felt all through the game as the reports came through and when it was all over, the joy of local fans knew no bounds. It's on to Winnipeg now and with the locals playing the Western winner for the All-Canada Junior championship, excitement and interest in the struggle will be at its peak. ' But in meeting Calgary, the King- ston juniors will have to show al] the fighting qualities for which they are famous to battle through to the Junior Canadian championship. Even though they have beaten Fort Wil- Yam, they will have a man-sized Winnipeg, Tuesday and Thursday. The Calgary Canadiens showed their "BUD" MACPHERSON--MOLSON Valuable reserve players of the Kingston junior' hockey team.

They are doing great | work in the Western campaign that is highly creditable. UNIFORM CODE IS PLANNED IN RUGBY Hoped to Have Closer Co- operation With the Dominions. London March 22.--Closer associ- ation within the Empire between "| players. and followers of the rugby game, and uniformity of rules that will ensure co-operation among all ciements is aimed at by the Inter- national Rugby Board, the supreme governing body in English rugby, who have issued invitations to the Dominions te participete in an im- perial conference which will take place in London next November or December. The conference will con- sist of+«the International Board, to- gether with two representatives from the Neéw Zealand, the New South Wales ' (Australia) and the South African Rugby Unions. Suggested amendments to the rugby laws and the rulings to be adopted tinder their new provisions will be under consideration. It is not elicited that any invita- tion has been sent to Canada, in view of the fact that, notwithstand- ing the popularity of the game in Eastern Canada and British Colum- bla, and also in Montreal, there is not now any national = governing tody competent to present the Cana- dian viewpoint. . Montreal, March 22.--The organi- zation of a national rugby union for Canada has been mooted several times, but little headway has been made due to the sporadic manner in which rugby is played in this country. A large number of the Canadian clubs are affiliated with the English Rughy Union, or, as in the case of the Halifax Wanderers, with Old Country clubs, the Wan- derers having an affiliation with the Fdinburgh Wanderers of the Scot- tish Union. In the Maritime Prov- inces an attempt was made several years ago to organize the rugby clubs into a Maritime Provinces Union, and this body functioned .for two seasons. On the Pacific Coast rugby fis played extensively, and the British Columbia teams were, the only or- ganizations that gave the New Zea- lund* All-Blacks a game during the passage of the latter on, their way home last 'year. Several clubs exist in Montreal, Toronto and Winnipeg. A CHANGE NEEDED. O.T.A. Champions Do Not Get an Even Break. The realization is growing that the O.H.A. champions must always enter the Allan Cup play-offs under a big handicap, provided they don't get a long rest before their first game. With a play-off series in their own group, another with the other group winmers, followed by a third series with the northern On- tario or intermediate champions, the O.H.A. titleholders must engage in three playoffs before tackling the Ailan Cup series at all. play-offs is about as many as the team engages in which carries off the cup. While Peterboro were not| as good as Varsity, it was apparent that the Petes were In no condition in either game to do themselves jus- : tice.

After their gruelling engagements with the Regina Victorias and Fort William, - Port Arthur will need all the rest they cam get before they engage the eastern champions in Montreal Wednesday and Friday. Apparently the Ports are just as strong as they were last year when tiey won the Allan Cup, and they had to be to withstand the strong bid of their western rivals. Last year the Port beat Varsity by 4 to 0 and 4 to 3 in the finals, but the stu- dents are a much improved team to that which represented 'the blue and white last season.
