n, Wanderers Of Montreal proved
49,. ,;cht 10 the satisfaction Of 1000
..,tstors and the Quebccs Of Quebec,
~, ,bev are the greatest hockey team
- II the world. when they defeated
letter team in the second and de-
tS S.- came Of the professional series
''.SS s. Nicholas Rink by score Of
:: :: ,-osls 10 -. In the first game, on
-Se,Sav y night, the Wanderers won by
-,.y ,.orc Of u goals to 6, thus giving
-, a total for the two matches Of
. Goals 10 Is. &C..
..;or The decision is arrived at that
"Pustv." "Goldy" or Red" Prodg-
uS ,be giant coverpoint of the Wan
t.-srs. is the greatest hockey player
= the universe.
J" p-o5rers. broad Of shoulder, deep Of

..r,cr 80, 70 all who opposed him last
-. E.s II seemed impossible 10 stop
l:s, o,ce he started one OF his bull
"a 20 rnsbes down the ice. Hard falls
~ ssvere punishment are the lot Of
.ls M professional hockey player, and
P-osrers got his full share of these.
-. I7ttIe things like that never rutfied
-. ;-orensc good nature of the young
= -. and. 20 borrow line from the
s.strical billboards, he always came
" 'Tso s.1' Ovebecs had their own stars,
...sblv Marks and Malone, the wings,
-tose work did much TO keep their
...-, in the running last night. Marks
...hoblv was the fastest man on the
z. las+ night. and certainly the most
...;ys stick wielder. Malone was in
s~srv scrimmage, always fighting and
,lwsys dangerous.
-sr .he "orce over 10 IS breaking no
..,45erce TO say that our own Hobey
p.ker still has a bit 20 learn about
to.ssv as IL Is played in Canada.
Tho GOALS came so quickly and so
i.sousrtlv in each OF the three periods
.sst the story Of one is much like the
,,bsr, Quebec started, Mcdonald scor--
10 clesnly in about three minutes. and
80, bo-h sides Wed with each other IN
,5Sing 10 the total. At the end Of the
s-.- reriod the Quebecs had tailed SIX
mes and the Wanderers five.
Tho came was as fast as CREASED
r,s.ring every second, with wonderful
.'sm work and passing by every man
~ the ice. 4 flaming streak would
.,,b down the rink, there would be
ss.yv thuds as men dropped right and
sft on the frozen surface, and Rusty
p-odgers would emerge with the puck.
Fs did not always make the goal, but
is was instrumental in the scoring
every time.
In the second period the Quebecs
,,,;o held the advantage, scoring five
ines 10 Wanderers four, making the
s,ore read u 70 u IN favor OF the
Vortreal team. This seemed 10 eX-
.s-,t the offensive and defensive play
q the Quebec six, however. and in the
'ss, peyiol they were powerless 10
resist the batterinC ram tactics OF
Prodgers and mis- mates, who added SIX
-ore goals 10 their total. against the
one tally Of Richie. for Quebec.
Things grew quite rough IN TINS
;,al session, but everybody was good
-s,ured about the whole thing, and no
zones were broken. Moran. the Quebec
eoalkeeper. was still suffering from a
strained neck as the result of the first
game. and this interfered seriously
With his effectiveness in stopping snots
6; his cage
Once. in his efforts to prevent Marks
from making a goal. Prodgers threw
his stick across the ice with remarKa-
be aim. and stopped the puck just as
r was going in. For this he was ruled
81 for five minutes, and took his seat
with an expansive grin. A few minutes
siterward Marks was sent to the bench
ior talking back 10 Cooper Smeaton'
he referee, his term Of penance beng
five minutes. There were other pen
s.tes with each side about equally
punished. but a. no time was there
anything that could be called VICIOUS
a the play Of the two teams.
Martin Sheridan. the former all
round champion athlete of the world,
sat in a box and chortlcd over the do
ings Of "Rustv" Prodgers. Hes sure
broth of lad. Just look at the
shoulders and the lungs Of him said
Martin, bcaming at the Wanderers
