B.Y.C. Makes First Start Against Saints

- 5!. llunstanis University and the Basilica Youth Club will cross aticks this evening at the Sports Arena in the third game of the Island Senior "B" Hockey Lellgllh

At their last couple of practice aessions L ches A.J. MacAdam and Jack Kane have come with I new forward combination that is hoped will add even more power to the Saints already high-scoring potential.

The new line is made up of Buck Davey at centre with Charlotte- town Jack MacDonald on left wing and .lean Maurice Veilleux patrolling the right side of the rink.

Davey and MacDonald are both playing their first season of sen- ior hockey with the Saints first team having graduated from high achnol into the fieshman class last spring. Veilleux Is a holdover from last year's team.

In the opening game of the sea- son against the fast-skating Sum- merside Aces MacDonald notched the first goal of the year in league play Veilleux' marker in the third frame put the Saints into a 3-2 lead and Davey picked up a pair of assists during the tussle.

The B.YC will be making their first league appearance. Coach Wally Shepherd has been driving his players at practice sessions that began when the doors of the Arena swung open for action some weeks ago and has a "highly talent- ed aggregation at his disposal.

Starting out with 22 player: coach Shepherd has cut the rost- er down to 15 for tonight's game- They are. goal J. Gehrke. sub- goal. Bob Dillon: defense. jack Ready. Dick Wedge.

The announcement contained no reference to Obeck. who in his capacity as general manager had personal-ly handled most of the club's announcements.
