BIG RACE Rum-AIRS

FEBRUARY 8. 1951

If local hockey fans who were at the Forum for the game between Islanders and Halifax on Tuesday

night, went there for the purpose of I witnessing an exciting game of hoc- key. ilhen they sure got their moneyis worth. Coming u.p with a fast, wide-open first period. and develop- ing into a rough and rousing sec- ond and third frame. the game pro- duced thrills and excitement by the minute tfnat had some 1.450 cash customers on the edge of their seats all night and hollering their lungs Out.

. . .

It. was the second contest l.ii less than a week between the two clubs that gave local fans here the action and good hockey that they want. to see. Although the previous encoun- ter. last Friday night, came up with a quieter and more consistent brand of hockey on the whole, the Tucs- day night encounter was a crowd pleaser all the way and came up with plenty of good hockey in be- tween numerous flareups that brought; about a total of 23 petiol- ties, probably the largest in any one game this season.

. . .

But it. was A game. that despite its roughness and excitement. never saw any injury to players as the re- sult of various outbreaks and scuf- fies that not cnly involved the play- ers, but both referees and coach Leo Lamoureux of the Islanders. who for the first time this season was sent. off the bench during a contest. And for a change, it wasn't only the Islanders who were the target for the referees and couldn't be named the aggressors and per- petrators that brought about the hot sessions throughout the game. although they were involved in them nevertheless.

Halifax picked up 13 of the awards. including majors to Pat Ptwers and Frank Grabowskl and misconducts to goalie Eddie D'Aoust and Hughie Campbell, while Is- landers collected the remaining to that saw Phil vitale garner two majors.

lamoureux In Caustic Comment On Penalties

Leo Lamioreaux. coach 0-! the Islanders in the Big Four League, fired a broadside at iihe penalty routine being followed in the lea- 8ue these past few months.

Steamed up over Tuesday nights encounter during which 23 penalties and several fistlc upris- ings kept the rink in an uproar. Lame-reaux uniburdencd himself to the Press ilhis wise:

"It was," said Lamoreaux. "one of the few times this year that our citib did not labour under the handicap of absorbing most of the penalties during a game, Almost always We have had penalties plastered on us in ilhc ratio of two or tihree to one. In Saint John last Saturday night we played short- liandccl on seven occasions while t-he Beavers were below strength only once. .

play rugged hockey,” he continued, ”nnd we do earn pen. 31'-ijes. but we object to officials taking it for granted that the Is- landers are pre-ordained to fill the penalty box every game, as though it was a. league rule.

"As an example of what I mean." said the Qharlottetown Coach, Tuesday night Black and Vilale rougihed each other Hip on the boards. but the niixup was not serious enough to draw penalties.

"However as Vitale turned away Pat. Powers attacked him from the rear. making an unexpected semi- flyingg tackle, on our defenceman. knocking him down. Vitale strug- gled and finely roiled Powers over and exchanged blows with the Halifax -boy. Powers was plainly the aggressor, but boifn men were given five minutes. Viia.le's pen- alty ai the most should have been two minutes.

”This incident is typical of what my team has had to contend with in the great majority of games. The principle seems to have been established that if any doubt exists at all fine benefit of the doubt goes against the Islanders. It is safe to say that we have spent a consider- able length of time in the penalty box beyond our dues. No team can continue to win while playing with five men for a good part of each

"We would ask (the men with the whistle to look both ways because after all there are two teams on the ice."

MONCPON. N.B., Feb. 1 - (CP) -Halifax St. Mary's maintained their mastery over Moncton Hawks with an 8-8 Maritime Major Hoc- key League victory tonight. H.twkI have been able to register only three wins over the I-Ialigonluie this season.

Saints led 3-2 at the end of the first period and the count, was deadlocked 6-6 after two periods of play. Saints fired two tallies without a reply In the final frame to wrap up the game.

Trent Anderson. who started the season with Hawks and arrived in Halifax by way of Glace Bay of the Cape Breton League, was the scoring hero for the winners. He fired five goals to take top scor- ing honors for the night. Other Hall-fax marksman were 'miomas, with a pair and Black.

zLou Milani snipped a pair for the Helwks, and other scorers were Sandy Air, Lorne Smith. Joe Del- monie and Mousie Dowling.

The game was a typical Holi- fax-Moncton meeting. Play was wide open. with the accent on scoring tries rather than defensive work. Only four penalties were called. three of them to Halifax. Hawks held an edge in the ter- ritorial play. firing 28 shots at Eddie D'Aoust in the Halifax cage, but their aim was poor. Halifax had only 17 mots on goalie Les
