AJ Rogers. whose interest in minor hockey seems to’inci-ease with the years. takes his Midget Abbies to Chatham, N. B., to- night for a sudden death game with Chatham Midgets for the N. B. -— P. E. 1. title.
Rogers has a scrappy outfit that will not let a little thing like playing away from home hinder their style.’ They’ll go all out to derail the New Brunswickers and don’t be a bit surprised if they do.
SPORTS FRONT wishes Al and his‘ lads the very best of luck.
Last week we reported that the Island Intermediate hockey champions Parkdale Flyers had called it quits for the season after bowing in two straight games to the N. B. champs, St. Basile Aces. ’
We were proved wrong.
St. Basile forfeited their right to play for the Maritime crown and Parkdvale gladly jumped in to fill the gap. They took on Windsor Maple Leafs in a best of three aftair, losing 12-7 and 5-4.
The first game Flyers were minus five of the regulars but in the second with a complete squad they forced Windsor to the limit before bowing out of ,com- petition.
This time we think we're safe in saying they are through for the season.
Officials in charge of ‘Jake Kennedy Night’ are to be con- gratulated on the success of this most. deserving venture.
It's true that the attendance wasn't too large, but a great many persons bought tickets and did not attend.
[All contributions swelled the total to approximately $700, a very sizeable amount. However, the work put into this effort by minor hockey officials was de- serviing of even greater support.
Jake we know is mighty pleas- ed with the demonstration of_ goodwill. It was a night he will long remember. He knows for certain that his friends don’t for- get quickly.
The Boston —- New York Stan
Iey Cup hockey semi-finals series has gone into the records as the most penalty-filled in Major lea- gue history. . Even after Thursday’s game the number was 67, a new record. Saturday 11 more penalties were called to bring the total to 78.
The previous high total of pen- alties in a single playoff series was 61 set by Boston and Toronto to 1951.
Members of the Toronto Argo- naut Football Club and Toronto Maple Leafs of the National Hoc- key League can’t see anything f\1nn.V about the question, posed by -some was: Do you think Tor- fmln will have big league baseball h"Im‘9 It gets big league football or hockey?"
Of course the remark was prompted after Leafs‘ last-place finish this season following the tail-end placing of Argonauts of the Big Four in 1957.

Hutchinson's crew made it close last year and their spring training performances make them a possible threat to Mil- waukee ‘Braves.
That sixth game between North" Sydney Combines and Charlotte- town Royals Is a mighty tough one to get completed. Air and road travel washed it out last night. However, chances are good that the battle will be staged to-’ night in all its fury. '
Royals and their fans‘ were naturally disappointed about last night’s postponement. They had it all figured that by Tuesday night they would be playing the seventh encounter. Two‘ one — if there is one -— will I‘: 3 to wait over till Wednesday.
Talk of forfeiture, postpone-
ments, and what have you all have created more interest than we have heard about a game in quite a while. . ' Let's hope the interest means that the season’s largest. crowd will sit In ‘on tonight's encounter. Action starts at 8.30.
Tonight’s Stanley Cup game be- tween Montreal Canadzienas and Boston‘ Bruins will be carried on C. F. C. Y. television tonight commencing ‘at 10 o’clock.

Folley - Machen Bout Wednesday
IAN FRANCISCO (AP)- Heavyweiglht Zora Folley, ‘after earning the No. 2 contender’s ranking but not much money in‘ five years of boxing, aims to cash in at the expense of-favored Eddie Machen here Wednesday night.
The guarantee of $15,000 or 25 per centiof the net gate will bring the {biggest payday to date for Fblley but he and manager Bill Swift bigger things ahead.
Folley and Machemthe No. 1 contender from Redding, Calif., signed for his fight in hopes the winner can get a crack at cham- pion Floyd Patterson.
Whether this comes off is prob-' lemratical si 11 c e the champs manager,, Cus D’Amato has turned down Machen as a foe and has taken no firm stand on Fol- ley, from Chandler, Ariz.
Swift, a great. grandson of the man who founded the meat pack- ing firm bearing that name, es- timated that handling Folley, his first managerial endeavor, has cost him about $7,000.
unsnnvnn OPPORTUNITY
"I decided to take over active management because I thought Folley deserved an opportunity and had the ability,” Swift de- clares. He says he thinks the odds for the 10-round bout with Machen are out of line. The 25- year-old Machen is about 2-to-1 far the televised bout.
Machen is undefeated In 24 bouts including 16 knockouts. Fol- ley, 26, has a 38-2-1 record, is and Sawvi-fat notes that he has stopped 25 foes—-one more than unbeaten in his last 17 outings Machen has fought.
Physically, the two boxers bear a marked similarity. Both will weigh in the 195-pound neigh- brohood with Folley,at six feet, about an inch taller than Machen. Each has a reach of 75 inches and a normal chest meas- urement of 42 inches. -

French Boxe Has Close Ca l
LE HAVRE, France (AP) - French boxer Robert Villemain and his‘ wife were overcome by fumes from a charcoa1‘brazier in

By w. R. WHEATLEY Canadian Press Staff Writer MONTREAL (CP)—-Coach Milt
Schmidt brought his Boston Bruins. to Montreal Monday for the Stanley Cup final against Montreal Canadiens and laid down a double—barrelled edict: No cockiness; No skiing.
The warning against cockiness was serious. The Bruins have just polished oiif New York Ran- gers in the semi-final and it is Milt's job to keep them “up for the best-of-seven final starting to- night.
Afiter an hour's workout on Montreal Forum ice where they'll meet the formida-ble Canadians, the Bruins were taken by special bus to Alpine Inn, at Ste. Mar- guerite in the ski-resort area of the Lauren-tian Mountains, 50 miles north of Montreal.
"I’ve got a few guys on my club who would be crazy enough to try skiing,” said Schmidt. "Wou1dn’t it be something if one of them broke a leg skiing‘!
“Were taking them up there to get them away from ticket- seekers, well-wishérs and the usual hangers-on around a down- town hotel lobby."
LIGHT WORKOUT
Schmidt sent his squad through a light workout of skating and shooting two hours after Cana- diens had a similar workout of half an hour.
“Last year we knocked off De- troit Red Wings in the semi—final and when we came here we were really talking. We were chesty. Canadiens promptly knocked us 01/'91‘ 150111‘ games to one.
“We’ve got to guard against a repetition. We’ve got a good club and we’re ready; although man for man I must admit Canadians have a stronger team.’
Schmidt said that despite all the talks about the Boston-New York series being rough, he thought it wasn’t and certainly doesn’t consider v his Bruins a rough club, that’s wh-at we are.’ MOHNS LEFT BEHIND
The Bruins arrived without de- fenceman Doug Mohns. Mohns suffered 8. Slipped pelvic bone in the final game against New York Saturday. >
Early Monday night. Bruins general manager‘ Lynn Patrick said Mohns will report in Mont- real today but from present indi- cations lt appeared unlikely he would be able to play.
Mohns "said his condition is bet- ter but he ‘‘can’t bend over.”
If Mohns doesn-’ play, the Bruins will use only our. defence- men. Patrick discarded tentative plans to call up Bob Armstrong from Springfield of the American Hockey League.
Springfield It in Cleveland to- day for the seventh game of the AHL semi-finals and If Armstrong were called up Springfield would be reduced to three defencemen.‘

At a meeting here Miss Wheeler became the third Cana- dian skier so honored. Twins Rhoda and Rhona Wurtell were named members several years ago.

Bruins Ready For Canacliens
would be felt byy the Bruins. Pat- rick said “if there was one out- standing player in the series against New York, withall due respect to the high scorers, it was Mohns."
Two other Bruins finished the New York series with injuries. Johnny Bucyk had 12 stitches in an eyebrow cut. Leo Labine had two stitches in a puncture-‘ike foot cut. Both players worked out today.
Schmidt indicated he will count heavily for the scoring task on his line of Fleming Mackell, Don McKenney and Jerry Toppazzini. The line just about-ruined the Rangers.
A REAL JOB
Coach Toe Blake, shboing his Canadiens off the ice after the brief workout. declared: “We've got a real job on our hands in meeting Boston. We know they're a tough team. Their fore-check- in-g seemed to be a feature of their play against the Rangers.
Blake said he hasn‘t decided on any particular line to oppose the hig-h—scoring Mackel1-McKenney- Top-pazzini trio.
“The only time all season
, we've planned sending a certain
line against another was in the semi-final against Detroit. We figured Bert Olmstead would be the best man to try to hold Gor- die Howe and he did it. Ber-nie (Boom Boom)» Geof- frion, who got into the semi-final after a long injury layoff, may still be used largely on the power play. But if Geoffrion feels ready he may take over at times from Marshall, who plays on a line with Beliveau and Olmstead.

Hazle, whose .403 batting aver- age in the la-st two months sparked the Braves’ pennant drive last year, slammed a dou- ble in the eighth inning a.nd scored the deciding run on Hank Aaron's sacrifice fly. Aaron also homered in the second.
Warren Spahn blanked the Dad- gers the first five innings but credit for the victory went to Er- nie Johnson, who took over in the seventh when the Dodgers scored twice off Bob Rush.
