Abbios 1...... Souris 12-7 In Intermediate Semi - finals Opener

The Charlottetown Abegweits mgr, night defeated the Scurls Lsgionaires 12-7 at Souris. in the m‘; game of the home and hop-e ggylea for the King's-Queen's in-

rmediate hockey championship. The second game is scheduled to btpllyCd in Charlottetown next w,eek. _

j-lowever, there is a possibility that the Souris team may lodge a protest over last night's genie.

Charlottetown led 8-2 at the 0nd of the first period and 0-5 at the end of the second. But in the mil-d stanza two quick goals by gouris put the eastern team ahead. to the tune of 1-0. It wes at this juncture that occurred the inci- dent which led the’ threatened

protest. .

ylum MacDonald checked Hon- nle McInnis into the boards and the Souris referee. E. Lavie gave MacDonald a three-minute pen- guy, At the sameMme Bill Bevin, fr, handed McInnis a five-minute sentence for drawing blood on lilacDonald. Souris would base their protest on'the claim that Mclnnis had not drawn blood. Ni’- that MacDonald had been cut e few minutes earlier, end that the penalty tc Mclnnls was not war-

Crest interest is being shown in the final game tonight for the Prince County Championship at.

Summerside All-Stars arc leading by e seven goal margin, but they have high respect for the western crew from 0'Leary.

.Notables on the O'l..ear-y lineup include the three Turner Bros, Wedlock, Wedge, Leigh Ellis and others. It is understood a large delegation of fans will make the trip from Olteary to lend support to Maroon efforts to cop honors.

Last year when Maroons and Silnrnersida Legion played off in the Crystal rink the largest crowd of the season vwas recorded, and at the rate interest is mounting in tho present match, there should be another large crowd.

Coach Windy Steele announced there would be no change in line- “D- Pene are waiting their oppor- tunity to leg their first playoff grme as the Bummerside-Bcrden S“!!! was played at Bedeque.

SEEKS EXPLANATION

Sir, -- I would like through the medium of your column to have certain facts explained to me, so that I will be in a position to tell the race fans just why my trotting mare, ,May Todd, was not selected as the representative,- trotter to cqnpetg in m; inter-provincial

I feel very keenly that I have been discriminated against, and I submit as follows the facts:-

I took my mare to the ice on Saturday previous to the champ- ionships being held, anticipating that an elimination contest would be held and that the trotter. Lus- ticla would be one of the contest- ants of ‘the race. the winner of which would be the Victoria Driv- ing Club's representative in the free-for-all trot. To my disappoint- ment Lustlcia did not start. In the race that afternoon Guy Harvest- er won the first heat, May Todd having pulled a shoe. The second and third heats were won by May Todd in 30 2/5 seconds, the fastest quarter mile over ice this season until Q15 race on Thursday the 28th when this time was equalled. Now thee Victoria Driving Club saw fit to have me ship May Todd to the, Dartmouth-Halifax meet where aha won the free-for-ail championship trot in Dartmouth. beating Judge and e McKiilop. What I am tryin to ascertain for myself and for the other sport fans is --why was May Toad not selected to race against these same horses in Charlottetown, as the representative cf the Victoria Driving Club at the inter-provincial meet?

.I would likq the President, Mr. Kelly. or the Classifying Commit- tee consisting of Messrs D. Mc- Leod, Frank McKay and Harry

discrimination. If horsemen are to be treated in this manner, 1 for one will soon retire from the horse-racing game. As e. matter of fact, I would not be at ail surprised if the day w“ not too far distant when the Class- ifying Committee will have no_t.h- ing tc classify except their own horses. -

In conclusion, I would like to rteto that ._I admire 1dr. Charles Chandler for he is e real horsemen. and also the beautiful Lusticia of which he is the proud owner. Thanking you foO your valuable space.

I em Sir, etc., R.
