Islanders Turn. On" Steam, Oust Millionaires 4 - 2 In Rugged Game Here

Murph aha.mberiain'a Charlotte- town Ialanders with their rock 'em and sock 'em free-wheeling style of hockey defeated the Sydney Millionaires 4&2 last night at the Forum for their first win of the new season.

After trading bump with the Millionaires in the first two periods the islanders had plenty left in the final frame to outaeore their opponents 2-1 and thus embark on their first road trip with a .500 average in the two home games played to date.

The teams left the ice at the end of the first period with the score deadlocked 1-1. The Islanders shot the only goal in the riotous second period and the goal came less than half a minute before the session ended.

The hockey. and there was lots of it, was better than in the open- ing game Monday night. The, bumping too was much heavier and! the t.eams showed more hustle than! in the opener against llalifax.

lt'was clear from the whistle that it was going a game well filled with Things warmed up in the first period and in the second session matters almost got out of hand as the boys squared away at one an- other on several occasions.

On the hockey end .lim Mac- Kerizle led the local snipers witn two goals. The other Islanders marksmen were Bob Gray and Wimpy Stephenson.

Bill MacDonagli and Nick Hill

scored for the Millionaires.

Goalles Don Campbell of the islanders and Allard of Sydney turned in top notch performances. Allard was called upon to stop 31 shots while Campbell turned aside B5 drives.

Coach Chamberlain used Jimmy Mocl-Zenzie at centre between Garey Gordon and Bill Hagen and this trio started the game. For the Millionaires George Robertson. Johnny Morrow and Ronnie Rowe were the starting forwards,

Connie Bonhomme fired the first hard shot of the game when he directed a drive at, Allard at the two minute mark. The tempo Ipeeded up about two minutes later with the line of Whltlock, Gray and Dowllng forcing the play.

Lornle Plrie. stock Sydney for- ward. started the play for the game's first score when he block- ed : shot at his own blueline and broke away. Larry Travis chased him back and Plrie's hurried shot was blocked by Campbell. Mac- Donagh, coming in behind, picked up the rebound and drilled it home.

The Islanders got this one back seven minutes later with Bob Gray being the marksman. The goal resulted from A nice. three- way passing play from behind the Sydney not between Travis, Whit- lock and Gray. ,

The second period produced only one goal. but plenty of act- ion. Couch Chamberlain tried an experiment and used Wimpy

wasn't long until the action start- ed as the bumping grew in in- tensity.

F0il0WlIl,'.,' heavy higli-sticking session everyone except the goalies par- ticipated, the first fight of the game occurred. The principals, al- though not the originators, were Bob Gray and Nick Hill and both drcw majors for their efforts.

Strategy Pays (Hf

With only 24 seconds left in the period coach Chamberlain chang- ed his lines for a face-off in the Sydney enil and the strategy paid 1iiVl(iCllfiS. Wliitloclr got the puck from it face-off and passed to Mac- Kenzie who sf-orcci.

Shortly after the start of the third period the Islanders scored on a play blown down at. the blue- llllP. Both goalies Allard and Campbell were tested and both rosel to the occasion with brilliant stops. -

Then at the 3.38 mark Buck Whltlock and Macbonagh drew minors and niajors for stick- swinging and fighting. The out-

Buck swung back but did not hit the Sydney player. The two were portcd but started to throw punches on the way to the penalty box.

Whiilock had just gotten out of the penalty box when he set up Stephenson for the Islanders third goal. Bob Gray started the play with a pass to Buck and Stephen-

son slapped Whitlockis pass into-

the tiiincs from three feet out to draw the biggest ovation of the night.

Less than a minute latter scrap- py Nick Hill got it back. Hill took Don Whcl.-in's pass inside the blue- line and drilled a low screened shot that caught the left corner of the net.

Jimmy MacKenzie completed the scoring at the 14.33 mark when he tipped home Garey Gordon's goal mouth pass. Bill Hagen start- ed the play at the Islanders blue- line with a pass to Gordon. Garey

Coach Murph Chamberlain had his hat pushed well back as be half reclined in Bill Brown's swivel chair in the Forum office and spoke about the Islanders-Sydney game last night. Murph was in a happy mood-over the way the Is- landers played in the third period as he ciriplmsized that they play ed hockey for :1 full 60 minutes. He. was anxious to talk about Wimpy Stephenson and the way that Wimpy can put fight into a team once he gets on the move

towards the opposing net. "And the crowd like him too,” mused Murph. ”Bchlnd the player's

bench they were shouting all night 'kccp on your wing, Wimpyi. When he scored that goal they gave him the biggest. ovation they'll give to

any player in the Forum this winter.”

0 e . ”The boys hustled out there

and made few mistakes tonight" continued Mui'ph. "This Kiley and McI..agan were a. pretty solid de- fense pair. Our forwards played well but there's not enough scor- ing opportunlsts among them." When asked about Walt Pawlshyn he replied that nothing definite would be known on the big left winger for a few days but that Pawlshyn might be here some time over the week-end, He also has lines out for a few additional players.

One of these may be a forward from the Toronto organization. 17- ycar-old Thane Doyle left here ,i'0Stf!lTia,V evening for a try-out with the Toronto organization. Murph thinks highly of Thanc's ability as a goal tender and if the Toronto heads think along the same line the Islanders will re- ceive a player in exchange. Thane has shown a lot of ability in practise sessions with the Island- ers this fall and if he can show the same stuff in Toronto there's not much doubt but that he will catch the eye of Hap Day and Co.

Cliff Roach, coach of the Syd- ney Millionaires, while naturally disappointed over the outcome, expressed the opinion that it was a good game and as crowd-plcas- in; as the fans would see in the Itflorliimcs this winter. Roach thought iliat Hughlc Gillis should have been more severe on the whistle as there was far too much rough stuff in the game. "If this continues ihere'll be few hockey players left in the league," he stat- e .

Cliff was I little disappointed over the attendance. For the sec- ond game of the season he expect- ed a bigger growd and in view of the all-out effort which the play- ers gave he thought they deserved a. good crowd of spectators. We thought there were about 1800 in the rink but on checking on the attendance found there was only about 1400 paid admissions. Those I400 got their money's worth and the next time that the M11-

lionaires play here they will likely draw quite a crowd. I I I I

Dunc Maolnty-re. big left winger for the Millionaires these past few years, is a. holdout. The Million- alres have offered Dunc sI25 a week. the maximum salary the league allows but Dunc is looking for more money. Unless Macin- tyre changes his mind it would appear that hell have to play else- where this season. The Million- aires have lines out ifor more players, it was learned from Roach.

TORONTO, Oct. 22 - (CP) - Toronto Maple Leafs roared from behind with a. three-goal outburst in the last 20 minutes tonight to defeat Detroit Red Wings 5-4 be- fore a. crowd of 13,058. The vic- tory put the Leafs in a three-way tie for second place in the Na- tional Hockey League with Chicago Black Hawks and Montreal Canin- dicns.

Behind Ii-2 going into the final period, the Leafs, who have made it a habit of coming from behind this season. banged in three straight goals with the line of Max Bentley. I-lowie Meeker and Gord Hannigan leading the or.- slaught.

It was the second meeting of the two clubs this season. The first, in Detroit, ended 4-4 in a game marked with a total of R5 penalties. an all time high in a N.H.L. game.

Tonight's contest was tame com- pared with that brawl. Referee Red Storey called nine penalties- five to the league-leading Wings.

Bannigan started the third- period splurge 54 seconds after the opening face-off on passes

from Meeker and Bentley. Penal- ties to Red Kelly and Marty Pavelich resulted in the tying goal by Bentley with Jim Thomson and Ron Stewart getting the asslstsin a smart power play.

The winner was notched by Meeker, who took a. goal-mouth pass from Bentley.

Ted Lindsay opened the scor- ing at 5.59 of the first period when the Leafs were a man short and Ted Kennedy tied it less than six minutes later when the Wings were short handed. Kelly evened it at 19.24 and the Wings were on their way to victory in the sec- ond period when they went two

up.

Gordie l-lows coasted in on Harry Lumley to make it 3-2 at 4.30. Marty Pavellch counted at 15.08 to put the Wings in front 4-2.

But. then came that last-period drive by the Leafs.

Thane i Doyle, 17-year-old net- minder. who has been) showing up well in training sessions of the Islanders, left yesterday evening by planeifor Toronto, where .he will be given an opportunity to join the Toronto Maple Leafs or- ganization. '

Doyle was recommended to Hap Day, Leafs General Manager by Murph Chamberlain. coach of the Islanders. Chamberlain has ex- pressed his approval of Doyle's ability and believes he can make the grade with Toronto. He would probably be used as a practice goalie until he becomes of age to play junior hockey in Ontario.

If Thane shows enough prom- lse in workouts at the Maple Leaf Gardens under the Toronto management, the Islanders will receive a player in exchange.

Doyle played last year with Am- 'herst Ramblers in a Nova Scotla Junior League. The year before he played with Queen Square School.

Two other junior players, Brian Lewis and Junior MacLeod left here Tuesday morning for Halifax to attend the Halifax Saint Mary's training camp. Lewis and Mac- Leod played with Trenton Sco- tlana last year.

SYDNEY. Oct. 22rCP) - Nick Pidsodny. colorful goalie whose antics in the Maritime Major. Hockey League have al- ways been worth the price of admission, has signed with Sydney Millionaires. President Art Lipton announced tonight.

Lipton told a shareholders meeting that,., Pldsodny left Hamilton, 0nt., today and that he hoped to have him in action for the game with Charlotte- town hcre Friday night.

He said the deal cllmaxed weeks of dickering with Gen- eral Manager Hunt of Buffalo Bisons. who decided to release Pidsodny for the season. He would be subject to 24-hour' recall.

It is believed that George Allard, Milllonaires' present goalie, will be sent to Moncton Hawks of the New Brunswick Senior Hockey League.

Lipton said that if Pidsodny was recalled. for any reason ..other than injuries. he would be replaced by Blsons' goalie McAt.ee.

Steps were taken by shareholders to bring another Sydney star into the fold. They decided to offer holdout Dunc Maclntyre the lea- gue's maximum salary-53,000 for the regular schedule. exclusive of playoffs-to induce him to sign a contract.

Lipton also announced that the club had asked for the uspension of defencemen Ronnie Matthews. who failed to report at the Sydney training camp and now was play- ing with sherbi-ooke in the Quebec senior loop.

Saint Dunaturs University: I00- ond'teain won the opening game of the Island Intermediate series with Prince of Wglee College 6-0 yester- day afternoon but only-ifter over- coming a. born resistance by underdog weishmen in a game played on Memorial-Field.

The heavier.red and whi:e squad struck for two unconverted tries in the first half and fought on slightly better than even terms with (Gor- don Bennett's footballers .in the last 80 minutes. .

Hard running Gus Dorris. the standout in the S. D. U. backfield setup the first try with 3 beauti- ful 40 yard run through the P. W. C. defenses. Dorais passed to Chick Mon-issey 10 yards from the line and Morrissey made no mistake as he raced across and around he- hliid the goal posts.

The play started from a serum near centrefleid. Kip Ready picked the ball- cleanly and passed to fly- ing quarter Joe Mullally. Mullally relayed the ball to Dorais who gave his brilliant exhibition of broken field running. The try was-scored at 11.40 of the first half.

Fifteen minutes later the saints increased their lead by three more points. Kip Ready engineered the try as he scooped up a. ball from a scrum and raced 15 yards before passing to Rodney Maclnnis on the P. W. C. line. The big forward from Tignish had little more to do than touch the ball in P. W. C. scoring territory.
