BY E. C. PHELAN Canadian Press Staff Writer- MON'I‘R.EAL,Mareh 9-In Mont-
real's Forum, home of the game he loved so well, Howie Morenz- called the greatest hockey player of them all-will spend his last hours on earth.
A public funeral is planned for
the nery little eentreman who came here as a boy from Strat- f01`il. Ont.. '£0 Play his first profes- sional hockey game with Montreal Canadiens 14 years ago.
From 11 am. Thursday until 2.30
his body will lie in state over tire ice surface that once echoed the ring of his flying skates. Then after the service, the body will be taken to Motuit Royal Cemetery for burial.
Sport W:>i-ld Shocked
Tonight, the world of sport was
still shocked at the sudden passing of Morenz last. night. from a heart attack. Messages of sympathy from all over the continent poured into the office of Cecil Hart, Canad- iens' Manager who first signed the Streak of Stratford to a pro con- tract.
The messages were brief, sin-
cerc, indicative of the stunned grief oi’ the writers-“most popular' player"-“rnost admired”-"idol of young Canada"-“greatest centre- man in the history of the game."
“Never in the history of our nat-
ional ganie has such glamour sur- rounded one of its players." wired Leo Dandurand, former owner of the Habitants, from New Orleans.

°“i Of respect to Howie and atwo- minute silence was observed inthe great rink before the game,
Gone is that flashing, sparkling
Speed that won the soubriquets- Stratford Flash. Mitchell Meteor__ but his spirit will live with Can- adiens on the ice. One of the last to visit Howie in hospital was* his llnemate of a dozen NHL. seas- ons, Aurel Jcliat, and Joliat today recalled his promise “I’ll be up there watching you in the play- offs."
Lcssenlng the sadiicss of the
sport world was' the realization that Morenz was happy, this 185; 50f1S0ll. to be back with the club that took him to the heights. In 1934, Morenz, already a veteran E3 llockeyi-Sis zo. was thought to be SUPPIHE. He was turned over to Chicago Hawks and the heart seemed fo E0 out of him. Next year he was with Rangers of New Yvrk. and got nowhere.
Recalled to Canucks
Butlast fall Cecil Hart came
back to the helm of Canadiens, and he knew Howie. wanted him back. And until the fatal game or , Jan. 28 when his leg snapped in a collision with the boards, Howie Played perhaps the most brilliant season of his long career.
So Howie was spared the agony
of quitting as e, second-rater. He knew. his mates and his oppon- ents knew, he was on top when he went out. His no/me will live in hockey annals as long as his great spirit is "up there watching" Can- adiens in the playoffs.
Frank Calder, N.H.L. President,
was one of many who paid ti-lb. ute to Morenz today. He no doubt remembered one night in Ottawa when he said: “I never knew him to do a. mean thing. But I do re- call that more than once when an opponent had transgressed against him, Howie was the first to inter- ccde in his behalf."
In that Ottawa game there was
a bustling, bumping play in mid. ice. A stick went up in the air, came dovm in a long rv-c and Morcnz pitched consoles to the ice. Hee Kilrea, a yoimgster then, in a moment of impulse, had knocked Howie cut. He stood be- wildered as they carried Howie to the dressing room.
Morenz came slowly out of a.
coma and murmured: “I bet Hee dldn‘i. mean that. He'ii it good Sl-ly-"
He was u. good Buy. l.oo.

ger was seen tociuy in announce- ment by Gerard B. Larnbert, owner of Yankee, of radical changes in that runner-up in the trial races of 1930 and 1934.
Yankee will set n single head sail.
instead of the double head rig of former years and to compensate for the reduction of sail area in the fore-triangle, 500 sqri:i.re feet of canvas is bcinu arlclcd to her main- sriil, and about eiglit. feet to her boom. The change ncccssitrited moving
Yankees 165 foot mast five feet farther for\\'al'd and installing com- plicated rigging to support. it.
Yankees ballnsting has been
changed radically and her displace- ment increnscd to 164 tons, about 20 tons greater than when launched, which in turn will lengthen her wat- er line to 86 fcct, three inches, only nine inches under Rainbow.
Yankee, ii.ft.cr~ pressing Rainbow
hard throughout the trials in 1934, saw the latter, skippcred by Van- derbilt, nomiriatcd on xi. basis of a. one-second finish, the narrowest margin in Amcricn`s Cup history. Vanderbilt sirbscqucnily sailed Rain- bow lo victory ovcr the British challenger, T. O. M. Sopwiih‘s En- dcavcur.

understand dissatisfaction of the Quebec authorities because Calgary had been selected for the Canad- ian final.
“A11 these urausemeiii-S _Wm

Awarding of an Ottawa City
championship game to Comwali after Hrrll had protested a. disal- lowed goal has stirred a first class controversy in the Dominion cap- ital. Duncan said, however, he would not care to say anything at the moment until he had heard both sides of the story and the matter had been referred to the C.A.H.A.
The Ottawan was particularly
enthusiastic over the intemational series to be played at Toronto next month between the Allan Cuppers, the British champions and the winners of the United States Eas- tern League title.
“In England they are particular-
ly anxious to make the champion- ship a- success," Duncan said. "Hockey is progressing there at a pace I never believed possible, but they are not yet quite up to our standards but within the next decade no doubt will have some good native players."

Moncton Muoous, L team that
appears unstoppable, come totown tonight surrounded by all the gla- mour that once encircled the Moncton Hawks. They have a 13- goal lead on our own Abegweits as they go into the second game of the semi-finals for the New Bruns- wick-Prince Edward Island title but after all that is of little im- portance now-it is too large a. margin to expect the Abbies to overtake-but the fact is that local fans tonight will have a chance ofwltnessing one of the finest. squads ever developed inthe Maritimes.
According to eye witnesses of the
game in Moncton, Maroons are af. fast, if not faster than the famed Hawks. They have been trained for the past three years to get back that Allan Cup and now they appear about ready to realize tlieir ambition. Trained by the old acc of the Hawks, Dud James, the Monetcnians have perfected a sys- tem of play that is baffling and brilliant. They are smooth, pow- erful and fast, and that is well borne out by the fact that- in 14 games they have drilled home over 100 goals and have also beaten the Kimberle Dynamiters, last years
eration it 1| no dlqrrce for the Abbies to be beaten by the calibre of a team like the Maroons; Ab- brcs are all youngsters and it is up to local fans tonight to show the roam that they are still solidly be- hind them as they sally forth, far from discouraged, detern-rined toot lcast. chalk up ri win over the vis- rtors.
Abbics lost nothing in their de-
fcrrt, as the following taken from the Moncton Times will testify to: "The Abbies, who displayed the spirit. of famous teamsof the same narrre that have gone before them nevcr lacked for ii moment ln courage. They refused to be dis- couraged by the size of the score -rrncl it takes a. good team to do that". Quite a compliment com- ing from Moncton and one that is deserved.
The tcarn returned home last
night. Certainly they were aisap- pointcd but they had nothing but praise for the ability of the Mar- oons. In the same breath they say that tonight is another night. “Sure we are away clown," they
