OUST MILVERTON TO
WIN SECOND ROUND
Lucknow Maple Leafs held
Milverton to • a 4 -all draw• on
Monday night to .win. the two-
g:.me series by 6 goals to 4 on
the round. It was an exciting,
• see -saw battle, but *as played
on sticky ice and didn't provide
• his, good. .hockey as. these aw o
teams dished up on: -Saturday
night.
Milverton's.deferce, which .was
a standout in ' the first game,
wasn't' so effective' Monday,' and
except for a ;couple'of lapses . by
Maple Leafs • in the secorid
period they should have Walked
off with another victory-,-.
It • looked . as if it was in the
bag in thefirst period' when Bill
Chin scored twice•without a re-,•
.ply front. Milverton to put Luck-
row.'ahead 4. to .0 .on the round:
They : were .both nice goals. Stev-
enson started the. first orie at his
own blue line when he'slipped
a pass to Abe Chin, then he re
layed to brother Bill on going in
on ,the defense • and Bill , made
no, mistake in picking the. corner.
Seven .minutes later Stevenson
:drilled a hard shpt at Tornan, and
Bill Chin pounced on:. 'the ' re-
hound for the second counter..
The first period was , penalty
free, but McCully finally got a-
round to !handing some out as the'.
.garne ,threatened to roughen up,
;and with indications that Milver-
ton .players were trying t� get
the Maple Leafs seeing red—and
they very. nearly did before the
• end : o f the period when they led
3 to 2 and were within .one goar
of" tying the round:
"Curly", Stevenson was handi-
capped by :a damaged ::skate in
the second period: -that cut down
lits:' cifectiveness'both offensively
and defensively. i'filverton ran
in three goals in the 2nd period
while shutting • out• the • visitors:
The last 2 of them' carne within
about a minute, and beth, were
due to :a • bitof slack work, by
the Leafs. C. Kipfer 'got the
• first of this pair when he chased
a loose; puck.into the cornet, and
sifted around behind our net to
carome it in off Bud Orr's skate.
He was the. only Milverton play=
er inside the. Lucknow blue line.
Milverton put on a power play
and, moved every man up, which
got thein a goal when two of
their ,men were left uncovered.
With a change of skates; Stev-,
enson sparked the attack in the
third period, and soon knotted
.the count when .he took. Bill
Chin's pass and stickhandled in
for a close -in • shot. 'Palmer put
Milverton iri the: lead again, but
Roy Havens got it back on .a
nice' effort when he picked the
corner on a pass out by Strong.

SUCH is the .grateful testimony of
countless fighting men who kept
"rendezvous with Death" and live to,
tell the tale. Every Red Cross triumph
over death, wounds, . disease and
'human agony is that in which • you
may, take, pride. Because it . is YOUR
Red ,Cross. Thus it is you who help
those in pain and. peril.
Now as the dreadful' carnageof war
increases—as moire-farnine-strickened
countries are made accessible to your
Red Cross, the need grows at terrific
pace. So much money is needed to
maintain a steady . flow of palrcels for
prisoners of war, of blood serum,
.'medical supplies and dressings, sur-.
gical instruments, hospitals and hos-
pital equipment, food and clothing, -
to name but a few of the'demands
on your Red Cross. Raise your sights,
—give MORE ; your ked Cross needs
your mercy dollars NOW!
