 0arInisch Partenkirchen, Ger many, Feb. 7--(UP)-The United states and Canadian hockey teams, co-favcrites to battle 1t out for the 1e3e Olympic title, scored their sec ond victories in as many starts to- day as the fourth winter Olympic games moved into the second day of competition.
 America, scoring all it's goals in the second period, whipped swit- zerland 80. Canada defeated Lat- via ll-0.
 Playing before Q capacity crowd of 5000 in the ice hockey stadium at 0armisch, the Americans con- tinued the triumphant march begun yesterday when they defeated Ger many To.
 Today's game was faster and played under more favorable con- ditions than yesterdays, which was hampered by @ continuous snowfall.
 Tn a third match today, Czecho- slovakia defeated Belgium, SO.
 The weather was clear and cold with the ice fast.
 After a sloppy performance in the first period, the American nt- tack clicked for three goals in the second session-al within Q little more than five minutes of each other.
 Frank Spain of Boston account ed for the first goal 12M minutes after the middle period started. Spain, taking a pass from Frank Shaughnessy of Roanoke, Va, whipped Q sizzling shot from the right wing alley which breezed past Swiss Goalie Albert Kuenzler.
 The Americans continued their dazzling offensive and Q minute and Q half later, Elbridge Ross of Boston banged home Q goal from a scrimmage in front of the Swiss net.
 Not content with this margin, the Americans again turned on the heat and 6 half minute later John Car rison of Boston scored. Garrison picked up the puck just over the blue line and whizzed in Q low, skimming shot which trickled be- tween the goalie's legs.
 The Americans started the game with a speedy attack, but their efforts mostly were solo dashes which easily were broken up by the rugged Swiss defence. Gordon Smith of Boston, fiery right-wing- CT who scored the goal which de-. feated Germany yesterday, almost scored when he barely missed . clear shot near the Swiss cage.

 Near the end of the period, the Americans clicked as Q team and carried their attack into the second session.
 Instead of laying back on their lead in the final period, the Ameri- cans continued to press and almost scored again. Although their at- tack slackened slightly in compari- son to the second period pace, the Americans continually had the rub. Der in opposition territory.
 Switzerland made several futile solo drives in the closing chapter. Dick Torriani, right-wing, broke through the American back line twice, only to see his short pokes atthe cage knocked down by Qoalie Tom Moone of Boston.
 Garrison was the bright star of the American offense, continually gliding down the right wing alley and firing hard ct the Swiss net.
 Ferdinand Cattini on the left wing for Switzerland, played e fast game. In the final period he missed Q hard shot directly from in front of the American net.
 Most brilliant Swiss defense star was Ernest Hug, who sports Q flowing beard.
 The Canadians, who played in the ice stadium in the first game, scored almost as they pleased against the weak Latvia sextet. The Canadian margin of victory was the largest rolled up thus far by any team. Canada won al three past Olympic titles.
