NEW YORK. Dec. l-l—tAPt__ Ttvice as niaiiy big league ball. players tn the U.S. have been lil-l dilcted into the army niid navyi since the end of the i944 seasouasl have been discharged but club owners look tilieitd iritii conﬁdence} to another campaign and a rosyl post-war future.

The trickle oi returning service- men han yielded Viin Mungo of Llle Giants, Mickey Livingston ziiid Harry Lowrq of tho Cubs anti Les Mueller and Al Benton of the Tig- us.

Dick Wakeﬁeld. who almost sin- gle-handedly sluggecl the Tigers to the American mtiguc flag. heads the outgoing list that includes Thurman ’l£'ucker of the White Sox. Hap Epps of the Athletics. Fred Schmidt of the Cards, Al Zarilla, Paul Dean and Bill Sein- soth of the Browns; Jim Tabor and Roy Partee of the Red Sox. ind Bob Malloy of the Reds among l.Il* batter known.

Although increased drafting of the 26-37 age group and reviews of '-‘.'0ll-l{i‘.0\l‘li servicemen before discharge are expected to tighten the manpower situation. the leag- ues have made provision for tnk- lng (‘.ll'[‘ of ilie army of national defence list pluyers vrhc-n mid if they come back.

AND a million people, at home on the radio or at the game, cheer with delight.

Usually that exclamation-“He shoots! He scoresl", means that a C.C.M. Laminated Hockey Stick has scored, because the great majority of Amateur and Professional hockey players use these C.C.M. Laminated Hockey Sticks.

The great strength with lightness that has been achieved through the lamination of several layers of suitable woods has been amply demon- strated by the performance of the remarkable laminated wood "Mosquito” Bomber. C.C.M. Laminated Hockey Sticks are built: on this same principle.

By building these C.C.M. Hockey Sticks on the lamination principle with ﬁve layers of wood, including a hickory wedge, steaming and bending of the wood are not necessary. The strong, straight-grain wood from selected timber retains all its native strength when laminated into C.C.M. Laminated Hockey Sticks.

These sticks are made in a choice of ice-lays that cannot change. See them at your dealer's.

Bobby Dew’s 3rd Period Counter Decides Close, Bristling, Encounter

n the third period on a pass broke up a brilliantly fought

City league encounter and sent No. 2 A.N.S. squad into a commanding lead in the City Hockey league as the local team came through with a 3-2 victory over Flying Officer Cotie’s strong Summerside team in a game that had over 900 fans into a continual state of excitement, bordering on hysterics, as the two evenly matched squads battled it out

ing whistle to the final one. ce the two squads swung into

action. Wide open and rugged all the way the Charlotte- town team went into a 2-0 lead before seven minutes of the first period had elapsed; before the period ended Summer- side had cut the winner's margin in half and then came on

d session to knot the count on

a drive from the blueline with only a minute and 14 seconds

ery minute they were on the ice and in addition added one of the coals while the Kelly, w, La- berge line. carrying the offensive for No. 2 A.N.S.. punched through for two of the continual threat every time they made their appearance on the ice, and that was very frequent.

Both goalies turned in standout

rformances. Time after time hey came through with spectacu- lar saves. and alﬂloukh Walker in the Wllmﬂl’ Cake was beaten on e low drive from the bluoline on one occasion. he more than re- deemed himself before the game ended.

The two ﬁrst-string lines faced each other as the teams went into action. Both goalies were tested twice in the opening minute but turned the drives asi e. The win- ners were carrying the offensive to thelr opponents and when Mc- Pherzon went; off for a knee check they sent ﬁve men racing up into Summerside territory. For over a minute and a half the losers rc- pelled the onslaught but Kelly. ﬁnally sharing the puck in the centre zone. beat the opposing de- fence cleanly to pick the open cor- ner with a. bullet-like drive to give his mates - 1-0 lead.

Still pressing and seeking to in- crease their lead. the Charlotte- town squad made it 2-0 at. the 6.40 mark. The score came lust after a change of players. Getting con- trol of the rubber in the centre zone. Pfaﬂ skated over the Sum- mersido line before passingtoAsh- ley and the latter stlckhandlin his way to the right hand side o the net, let go with n. drive that bent. Nixon cleanly,

Summerside began toexert more and more pressure after the sec- ond score and took the ploy away from the Charlottetown team. but Door shooting in three instances, plus the close checking and smart net minding of Walker held them ,1t bay until nearing the ten min- ute mark when McPherson, sum- merside's great defenceman skated up fast inside the Charlottetown line to take a pass from Winn and blaze a waist-high drive into the open corner behind Walker. The last half of the period went score. less as the fans were kept on dieir feet continually as drives just Wllllled by the Open corners ofthe Cakes and the Players used their h0g2: heavily.

Living up to all expectations inst night's tussle between the two Air Force ‘squads from l‘ arlottctown and Siunmerside respectively. ave the fans a little bit of everyt in that goes to make the nationc game such a drawing card among sports followers. _ _

Wide open. fast. rugged and played at a. blinding speed all the way. the two turns battled through three periods with llvtle or not“ to choose between tbem. That Charlottetown ﬁnally emerg- ed the winners was due to t-befnct that they were the better marks- men when in close. but outside of that it was .. n-stcphen all the way.

. o

It has been a long while since a game as good as last nllllt’: hll been played in the Forum. The J00 fans that. were in litlﬂﬂl-‘lﬂlllll will testify to that. Better bal- anced all around. the Summerllde team were slight favorites to take the encounter. but. the close check-

of the locals paid dividciida r o

l? lll ‘l! asker after they had vlsito s overcome their early two-goal ‘lead. ‘

Just which is the better team is still mm to say. summersid is still short of ice workouts and when they ﬁnally swing into top shape they are bound to be better. but one thing is certain. that fut- ure meetings between these tWO rivals-and there is plenty of riv- alry between the two Air ﬁr“ stations-will be eagerly looked forward to by the fans that wit.- nessed last nightw initial mcetinl between the Eair. And those fans will be proba ly added to in llfie numbers.

Hockey fans across Canada are noting with satisfaction time dnyl the continued grl of Montreal Canadians and oronto Maple Leafs on the to positions in the National League. t‘s quite a whilo since they've both been up then at once for any ‘length of time.

There's been a lot of grumbling by Dominion ci the past. few years over the (I69 that. pro hockey franchises in Can- ada were either breaking up or moving south. and also because too many springs sew the Stanley Cup travelling in the some direction. Rlghtfully considering the Domin- ion the birthplace and brceﬁini ground of the game. the I-t-r t5 were consoled by the tfioug t t Canadians comprised almost. entire personnel of big-time teams. and were charitable enough not t0 blame the boys for going where the crowds and money were. But. they wanted more of the llllNll. The nation's hockey appetite was partially gratiﬁed in the past two seasons. with Leafs ending e. seven year United States reign by taking Stanley Cup honors in 1042-48 and Canadians making it. a one-team show throughout last ceuon. Bat- isfactlor should be achieved if the two clubs are cup finalists next spring. ‘ . _

Incidentally, ‘the Red Wings are the only U. S. club that looks cap- able of disturbing the league sta- tus quo in the remainder of the season. sound ' ‘ circuit’s best defensive strength. and if the goal-tending problem is solved they should be good for second place n}. least’;

Recent of Boston Bruins. partlcularly against Toronto. calls attention to t e wﬂy thlﬂ clllh l8 coming along. Dit Clapper is han- dling them well. They practice less than any teem in the leakuc. but they have the beneﬁt of two ex- ceptional ice generals in Clapper and Cowley. _ .
