Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - April 14, 1947, Winnipeg, Manitoba Page 14 Winnipeg free press monday april 14, 1947 Regina Well the series that has had Manitoba and Saskatchewan hockey fans All in a dither for More than two weeks is All into the record books As one of the most exciting in history. And we re not sorry. We could t have stood the excitement much longer. At that it will take us a week to get Over it. You be simply got to hand it to this Moose jaw team no Mattei what your sentiments. They really had what it takes. This department along with a few thousand other observers was ready to count them out Long Egx but came bounding Back like a rubber Ball that just would t Stor bouncing. In our Book that s a sign of greatness. Is but while you Are throwing a few kudos in the direction of Ken Doraty and his ads Don t forget the Brandon elks. We were proud of the Manitoba champions saturday night. Mighty proud. They went Down to defeat before a grand club but they battled every Inch of the Way. They did t know they were licked until their return to the dressing room for the last time. In All three games Here bran Don had the Edge in the opening period but after that they gradually wilted and Moose jaw took Over. They just could t stand up under the continual hammering. They did t have the physique for it. We Don t know if the result would have been any different in the Long run but it was three bad mis takes two by Carl Kaiser and on by Gordon Walters which prove costly to the elks saturday nigh in the first instance Walters fool ing around with the puck in Iron of his own net allowed Moos Gary in these parts they claim that it second goal w was Ken Doraty s Superior Only Weake Jav to score their first goal. Kaiser bad Clearing was responsible for the second while he was sitting in to penalty Box for a stupid Cross chec to Bedard when the winning Goa was scored. The loss of Billy Johnson after i Brilliant Effort to score Brandon As a bitter blow. 1 ened the defence by that was the deciding Factor. Tronti look offensive Power away from May have had a lot to do with elks. Hoss Nicholson had Success of the canucks. Jimmy Mann and the latter hat he had his team playing it been much of a Chanci stopping the Brandon plays Befi Rej " do his stuff this season. At that they could get started. But in Ouri j in was Only used sparingly which books it was n Casp of the Kaiser and Tergesen play c Lite rally Wear i the elks Down. Nearly 69 minutes. And that a i to much for them. A bigger club. Moose jaw gave the Brandon boys a terrific physical beating. We Don t mean they handed out a lot of from when you a couple of hefty Guys like Bedard and Tarala pounding you game after game you re not going to feel As off the Vest Star of the series As far As we Are concerned was Little buddy Evans the lad fron flin flon and Killarney Bud worked his heart out in Ever same a tireless skater he took his bumps and handed them out fresh As a Daisy in a Flower Garden Jne even threw a bowl Check at Jim Bedard who seems to be Carl twice As big As he Bud up one of the leading scorers of the series he really earned his three goals saturday tears dreamed Down the face of Billy Toh sop when the doctor told him that s Why we Send Flowers. They More Comfort than a thousand words. Flowers telegraphed any wheel. By Harvey Dryden Calgary say a word or to of Praise today for a Gallant Bane of Reo flyers. For Nicholson be t Ween the pipes and rearguard Sykes sulkers Tele Neoe and Craig for Raleigh Albright Fabro Bel Kernahan Mcdonald o Connel and Kornek forwards All not to mention Barnett and Kennedy for a Wise masterminding Job plus cripples Messett Yashuk and my Rae Trainer Smith and equip ment Man Rous on the sidelines who made every save with Nichol son cleared every puck with the Encoe or sulkers and Bac checked Vith Fabro Bell or Kernahan throughout the full 60 minutes until they were practically Limp Vith exhaustion. Saturday night before a stunned Calgary House of paid these fighting reos came Back from a severe 10-3 drubbing from the stampedes in the opener of the Best of five series for the Western Canada senior Crown Here thursday to Edge these same Stamps 2-1 and Square the set to at one game apiece. Tonight the scene shifts to the Winnipeg amphitheatre where the series will be fought to a finish. After our first glance at the stampedes we called them a group passing marvels a Well oiled evenly balanced machine that would compel the Eggers to serve up their very Best if they wanted to make it even close for the Cal Arians. Despite their setback Satur Day we would t care to alter that opinion one bit. These Stamps can pass that puck around in a manner that Manitoba teams Haven t done for . If they can work their plays As Well on the Small amphitheatre surface As they can at the huge Calgary Plant and coach Jack Arbour and red Hunter vow that hey will Winnipeg fans will to n for a treat tonight. But despite their class the inspired flyers Lave beaten them once and will to perform the feat again ind again if their fighting hearts old out. From the opening whistle reos looked like a different team Sam. Fabro in on both Reo goals Clint Albright scored once saturday. They held their own in he opening exchanges and if any Hing seemed to have More goal Mouth opportunities than the Stamps. However the Calgary ans did t appear to be the least disturbed when Clint Albright cored after 15 minutes on a Retty drop pass play by Samuel Abro with Don Raleigh used As i foil. With reos getting the jump n the Home Side the locals be sieved it would cause the Mani bans to perk up a bit and perhaps make a real contest out of to something they did t see thurs a. Raleigh after blowing a clean breakaway from the red line with Fabro in the first made the fans sit up and Taice notice Early in the Sec i Ond when he skipped in for a s second Marker. Travel Ling at a nifty Pace through out Raleigh checked one Cal Gary rearguard at the red line and whipped in to beat both the Lone defender and Russ Dertell in the Cage. Then the Stampede onslaught really started in Earnest. They rolled up there time and again but when reos battling defence did t halt them at the Blue line the tenacious forwards came Back to be on the Job to Knock the puck Clear and so Nich Olson managed to keep the door closed until the end of the second a least. Taking up the Cudgel in the third Calgary again gradually assumed the territorial advantage they enjoyed in the second. Al though the flyers Hung on grimly the Stamps finally beat Nicholson after six minutes on a three Way passing play started by Archie Wilder and Doug Cairns to the unmarked Tony Desmarais in front of the net. If the stamp attack was in High gear before it rolled into super High now. But there always seemed to be a Reo around to Clear the puck just when the Stamps appeared set to Flash in on one. The Climax came when goalie Dertell was yanked and an extra Forward injected into the fray with 53 seconds left and the face off at the Circle beside the Reo Cage. But the flyers held the fort forcing one face off at their own Blue line for which Dertell did not return As was expected before the final gun went off. The boys who pick the three stars really earned their dough if they get any for the Job after the Battle. They were All stars out there although Cal Gary coach Arbour hinted that a few of his men did t play up to scratch. If they did to it was noticed Only by his Eagle eyes and something that this observer did t spot. Coach Barnett sent Albright in at Merae s spot along with Raleigh and Fabro keeping the second line of Bell Mcdonald and Kernahan intact. However Barney o Connell and Paul Kornek both came in for a lot of work subbing on both lines As the flyers still seemed to tire easily As they did in the first game. When the pressure was hot in the third Barnett changed his strings practically every be the ice could be the High Altitude perhaps even their Long Layoff. For a Good past of the journey Calgary had three strings working. That is Hunter Brown Ridge Grant Cairns Dame Fisher although Desmarais relieved fish or the Lethbridge replacement now and again in fact was work ing on that line when he scored Calgary s one goal and Wilder French Desmarais. Wilder a Handy Guy to have around works at both defence and Centre and while he was performing up front Calgary used Only three defence men Art Michaluk Sid Craddock and Bud Emery who replaced Art Shoquist for Liis contest. With the advantage of the extra line the Stamps would have been in far Superior condition if they had tied the score and sent the game into Over time. Winnipeg crowds should enjoy watching this Calgary team per form. They stick strictly to Busi Ness at All times with clean play ing tactics being observed. Michaluk hands out the heavy jolts fairly solid and most effective ones too but he makes them As clean As he can. Altogether a Fine Bunch of men and a credit to the City they so nobly represent. An ankle Gash suffered by Albright in the first period was the Only major injury of the game. He did t notice it until he removed his skate Dur ing the first period intermission and it was taped up at that time with four stitches inserted after the game. Tel Encoe Craig sulk ers. Sykes.

They fought from the very first minutes until the final whistle and were absolutely exhausted when they walked that Long mile Back to their dressing another Vear. Hockey for Moose jaw earned their Triumph. There was no doubt about that. But with a few Breaks it might have been a different Story.
