The game itself was very fast and ' brilliant plays were seen on both sides although the Superiors had the edge in play in the first perind they were unable to flash the light and the period -ended a scoreless tie, Jim Moro scored the first goal of th game at 1,41 of the second period ona . pass from Milani, Only to have Henderson nulify the lead at 18.25 on a pass from Romano, The second period ended:in-a- 1-1 tie.

"Winky" Whalen showed his hockey ability in potting two goals and master-' minding the team throughout the game completely out-smarting his rival playing coach on all occasions. Marvin Osmar showed up very brilliantl: on thé ice with fancy side stepping _ and expert puck handling and was robbed "on numerous occasions of assists after setting up plays only to have his wing men miss the nets. : Moro, Milani, Brassard, Stachiw, 'W. Diduch and Lang all were towers of "strength in their respective departments, and gave their all: to a Terrace Bay victory. 'In the nets Bobby Weaver was his old self stopping plenty of rubber in the second and third period, and any goals scored on him were the impossible to stop kind.
