J.TOOKE'S DIAMOND JUBILEE ou OUR i- Flying Frenchmen Go Down to Worst Defeat of Season to Aggressive Foes, 6-2 FIRST LOSS AT HOME Near Capacity Crowd Sees Locals Outplayed After First Five Minutes of Struggle By D. A.

L. MacDONALD. A smooth-skating, smart-passing Detroit team walked through Can-adiens' disorganized ranks last night at the Forum and handed the world's champions the worst trimming they have received at the hands of any foe this season. The final score was C-2, a last-period assault of three goals by the Falcons turning defeat Into rout. The loss was the' first suffered by Canadiens on Forum ice this year, and their second straight defeat of the season at the hands of Jack Adams' men.

The Falcons won the first clash of the season in Detroit, 3-2. A near capacity crowd watched the struggle. That Falcons richly deserved their victory there is not the shadjw of a doubt but the final score hardly represents what a determined bid for victory Canadiens made in the first two periods, albeit outrupnea uy the Falcons after the first five minutes of plav. The score does not indicate either just how magnificently Dollv Dolson, who had one of his best nights, was playing between the Detroit posts to keep the meteoric Morenz scoreless while his mates were doing an efficient job of tying up the rest of the Canadiens. Toon personally accounted for a least hall a dozen tagged goals from Howie stick, each of which might have ultimately turned the tide of battle in the first two periods.

Dolson saves at the expense of Morenz were at times uncanny. FALCONS IN TOP FORM. If Canadiens were off color last night, it was their misfortune in the bargain to meet a Detroit team that turned in Its best exhibition on Forum ice in many moons. The Fai eons' haven't won many games on the road this season for last night victory was only their third away from home this year, tout no matter what combination Smiling Jack Adams chose to send over the board-It was better than anything Cana diens had to offer. The Flving Frenchmen were handicapped by the loss of Lepine, whose broken finger resulted in him Tppearing only for a few short routes in the final session, but the absence of the poke-checking centre does not explain the inability of the Canadien defence to cope with the ruS attack tha.t Falcon sent eoalward from gong to gong.

Burke Ttnn manv penalties to be effec tive for he visited the cooler twice in each of the last two periods. Hainsworth had to be brilliant consistently to keep the score down to even half a dozen tallies. It was 1-1 the teams left the ic tor the first rest period but Falcons had had the edge In play, particularly after the first five minutes and they were still leading 3-2 when the teams returned for the last and had maintained their advantage in territorial play fairly consistently throughout the middle session. It was only in the last period that defeat became a rout for Canadiens when the" visitors banged home three tallies, the last coming when all the Frenchmen, five forwards in a last desperate gesture, were up the ice vainly seeking to pull the contest out of the fire. George Hay, Carson Cooper, Ebbie Goodfellow and McCabe were the luminaries of Detroit's victory After Herbie Lewis had nullified Joliats goal in the first period.

Hay put the visitors in front with a smart backhand effort half way through the middle session and they were never headed after that. One minute and 20 seconds later, the dark-haired centre made the play that saw the Falcons go two to the front as Carson Cooper sniped a drive from right wing. The Mantha brothers combined for' the last Canadian goal of the evening six minutes later, George taking a pass from brother Sylvio. McCabe broke into the scoring twice within thirty seconds in the final session, Hay making the play for the first tally and Cooper feeding him the puck on the other. A three-man rush featuring Goodfellow, Lewis and Aurie saw the latter score the final tally of the evening when the five Canadien forwards were all caught up the ice with just over a minute to go.

The battle between Morenz and Goodfellow for the Individual scoring honors of the N.H.fc. was a personal triumph for Eberhart. He got no goals, but twice he supplied the assists to add two valuable points to his mounting total. Morenz had to be satisfied with near tallies. He got so exasperated finally in watching Dolson kick out tagged markers to the corners that ne repeateaiy uanseu his stick on the Ice something rare for the poker-faced Howie.

BOSTON CONQUERS CHICAGO SIX, 5-2 Bruins Score Three Goals in First Period to Register Decisive Victory (Special to The Gazette.) Boston, January 6.

Outspeeding the team which is noted for its fleet-ness and packing too much stuff in every other department of the past-time of hockey, Boston Bruins rede high, wide and handsome to a 5-2 victory over the Chicago Black Hawks before the greatest crowd of the season in the Garden tonight. The Boston club waited until three quarters of the first period was gone, then scored three goals in that session and thereby accounted for their first triumph over the Chi cagoans this season. That the Hawks scored once in the second period and again in the third, when the Bru.ns accounted for the other two mark ers, is merely incidental to this con test which was a swift kaleidscope of skates and sticks from the open ing whistle to the final gong. The scoring of the goals was wide ly distributed, with George uwen, Martv Barry, Eddie Shore, Cooney Weiland and Jack Beattie accounting for the Boston tallies in that or der, and Mush March and Johnny Gottselig doing the work for the Hawks. Owen, Beattie and Barry had twn assists apiece and Oliver one: while Adams aided Gottselig in his counter.

Shore and March contribut ed individual efforts. Pnr the Bruins it was a great triumph. Dutch Gainor and Captain Fred Lionel Hitchman, although they did not figure in the actual scoring, played their best game of the season, Gainor seeming to have achieved the form of other years, yet being unable to break through Chuck Gardiner, who acquitted himself nobly in the Chicago net. Hitchman, his long poke-check working in that devastating wide sweep, turned back numerous attacks at critical times. For Chicago it was a bitter defeat, made doubly so by the loss of Taffy Abel, the genial burly defenceman, who wrenched his knee in the first five minutes of the game in colliding with Shore in a rush into Bruin territory.

He left the game right after that and later reports from tne Hawks' headquarters had It that he was out for two weeks. It also appeared that Dit Clapper might have hurt his shoulder in the wild third period, when lie became entangled with Gottselig. His right arm bothered him for a while. Dit also was given a major for patting this same Gottselig across the head with his stick in the second period, but since he is starting anew in the matter of collecting majors, he will not be suspended again until he ac quires two more. The contest, as has been said before, was decided in the last few minutes of the first period, and Is indirectly traceable to the penalties which took Frank Ingram and Dut-kowski to the penalty box.

It was then thaf Owen, assisted by Oliver, Beattie and Barry scored the first aroal. Just as Dutkowskl was re turning, but still out of position, Bar ry, with te co-operation of Beattie and Owen, sank the second, and to make it perfect, Shore's sprltely dash up the Ice, with both teams at full strength, ultimately proved the deciding goal.

The scoring was confined to the first two periods, after which the Tigers went on the defensive to maintain their one-point With five men on defence in the final session in a three-two formation the Boston outfit' turned back every effort of the Arrows to score. The game developed into a rough and tumble battle, but the Tigers played it safe and their victory sent the Arrows back into last place. OTTAWA SEXTETTE TIES TORONTO, 2-2 Chabot Stars in Maple Leaf Nets as Teams Battle Through Hard-fought Game 'Special to The Gazette.) Ottawa, January 6.

Toronto Maple Leafs and Ottawa Senators battled to a two-all tie here tonight in a National Hockey League fixture that was a "home coming" game for King Clancy, former Senator star who now wears the blue and white of Conny Smythe's Queen City aggregation. Over a period of nine years Clancy has been playing professional hockey, but this was the first occasion on which he had ever appeared in Ottawa in alien colors. Even the presence of the great "King" could not swing the tide of battle in favor of the Torontonians, and they battled through sixty minutes of regulation play and an overtime period of ten minutes, without breaking the deadlock. Some of the fastest hockey of the season was seen as the teams fought for their two goals apiece, and strove desperately to garner the odd one in five that would have meant victory. Brilliant goaling by Lome Chabot In the Toronto cage saved the day for the visitors as, while tne territorial play was fairly even, the homesters had more real t.coring chances than the Leafs: Twice in that bruising third period, Alex Smith rushed in to drive shots wide of an unprotected cage.

Con-acher and Bailey had similar opportunities for the Leafs and failed to capitalize on them. Harold Cotton staked the Toronto team to a first period lead with a clever goal, taking a pass from Ace Bailey and circling the right side of the local defence to trick Connell as the latter was prone on the ice in a desperate attempt to avert a tally. The remainder of the scoring was done in the second period. The Senators tied the count in less than two minutes from the resumption of play, Hec Kilrea blazing through for a brilliant individual goal when he recovered his own rebound off the boards and drove it home from short range, n. Danny Cox hurnbled his former teammates when he took Len Gros-venor's passout from behind the Toronto net and shot the- home team into the lead twelve minutes later.

Cox rifled a backhander that gave Chabot no chance to reach. The 'homesters were coasting along, apparently well in command of the situation, when Harvey Jackson tied it up. Joe Primeau made the play through centre, and laid a forward pass over to "Busher" Inside the blue line. Jackson shot it on the run, and the puck struck Connell's right pad, glancing in between the armour and the goal post. From then to the finish it was a hectic battle, both teams striving hard for the winning goal that never came.

While Clancy was the centre of all eyes, he failed to show the dashing form that characterized his work as a Senator. Charlie Conacher was the Leafs' most dangerous man, with Day rushing well, and Horner playing 1-uggedJy on the rear guard. Chabot's game In the nets was a standout. Hec Kilrea, playing in the form that formerly stamped him as a standout N.H.L. wing man, was one of the best on the ice.

Alex and Art Smith played brilliantly on the Ottawa defence, and both crowded Kilrea closely for individual honors for the home team. Joe Lamb was off his game, going only in spots, but those spells were dangerous moments for the Torontonians. Despite the rivalry and feeling always existent between Ottawa and Toronto teams, the game was clean ly played. Towards the end, as tempers were tried in the close-checking style that predominated, it roughened up a bit, but no serious damage resulted. Lome ChaboL acted as a buffer to Alex Smith when the big defence man crashed into him in the third period, and the game was held up while the vlsting goaler went off for repairs.

He suffered no serious injury, however, and returned to his post at the expiration of the allotted time. The Toronto. Ottawa.

Bun Cook, Keeling and Thompson Once Stewart Scores for Maroons (Special to The Gazette New York, January 6. The New York Rangers scored their best National Hockey League victory of the season by sending the Montreal Maroons down to a crushing 5-to-l defeat at Madison Square Garden tonight before 11,000 people. The Canadian Section leaders seemed very slow tonight and lacked the, peppy teamwork which stood out in their previous appearances ihis season here while the Rangers, after having had the riot act read to them, were very much "there" throughout of plav.

The win gave Rangers a tie with Chicago for second place in tne American section of the league. The Cook brothers and Frank Boucher played a whale of a game throughout and between them accounted for three goais, Bill getting a pair and Bun one. Butvh Keeling and Paul Thompson scored the others while Nels Steu-art saved the Maroons from a whitewashing. For the first seven minutes the play ruled fairly even, both goalies having plenty to do but at 7.06 Joe Jerwa broke away cleverly to draw the Maroon defenders out of position and slip the puck over to Butch Keeling who had no trouble denting the Maroon net for the opening goal. The count remained 1 to 0 in the Rangers' favor until 6.50 of the middle session when Bun Cook increased their lead with the help of Frank Boucher.

But the Maroons answered this with some smashing attacks and only nineteen seconds later Nels Stewart caught a rebound from Babe Slebert's shot to ram the puck past Roach. The Montrealers drove down in great shape repeatedly, but Johnston and Jerwa were very much on the job to prevent a score. At 13.31 Paul ri i tha Vnrlrprs further in front from a fine pass by Dillon.

B. SHAPIRO. Among those Canadian supporters who sat siliently at the Forum last night as the Falcons were piling up goals, one especially felt the defeat most keenly. He was Mayor Pierre Vezina, of Chicoutimi. brother of the famous Georges, whose name stands for great achievements in the annal3 of 'the Flying Frenchmen.

Mayor Vezina came down to witness the game as a guest of the management of the Canadian Hockey Club, and was unfortunate to watch his famous brother's team scrape the bottom of a mid-season slump. The presence among the Canadiens of a member of the Vezina family conjured up memories of the days when Georges was the greatest goal- tender in hockey; of his spectacular performances up to the end of the 1924 season: of the drama of hi3 illness at the beginning of the 1925 season; and then or tne snaaow mat fell over all hockey activities when the news of his death was flashed here early in 1926. "The Cucumber" will always be one of the revered and epic figures of hockey. Mayor Vezina is staying over for the Canadien-Toronto game here on Saturday night, and hopes for a vic tory for the Flying Frenchmen. J.

A. Montjoly, manager of the Bank of Montreal at Three Rivers, and one of the leading spirits in hockey organization there, was also a guest of the club at the game last night. The victory of the Falcons was their third on the road this season. Up to three days ago. Jack Adams' crew had an exceedingly poor record on tour, but a victory at Chicago on Sunday night, and the win over Canadiens has boosted its average considerably.

The rotund and genial manager of the Falcons pointed out that, although his team has a poor record on the road, the losses on tour were due largely to tough luck. "Either someone kicks the puck into our own nets or Dolson has an off night, or an opponent scores a fiuky goal; that's what usually happens when we are on the road." But that didn't happen last night. There were no fiuky goals scored against them, and Dolson was a most brilliant performer. When he kicked out everything Canadiens could offer him In the second period and the beginning of the third, especially some stinging drives from Morenz' stick, he donned the hero's mantle and kept it there. One of the causes of the Detroit losses was put on exhibition soon after the start of the game, when Harvey Rockburn, the rock-ribbed defenceman, tackled Sylvio Mantha as the latter came down.

Rockburn paid too much attention to Mantha who in turn was paying Just as much attention to the puck, which was duly passed out to Joliat who scored. All the time, Rockburn was pushing Mantha against the boards and desisted only when he heard a shout and turned around to find the puck was already in the nets. But that didn't happen very often. Mutineer Adams Kppma in Va on thused about Johnny Newman, centre star oi tne Detroit Olympics of the International League, and it is likely that Newman will be seen in major company within a few days. He is now recoverine from an inlnrv that has kept him out of play for three weeks.

The Falcons seem to be well supplied with centre players, but jacK Aoams is particularly enthusiastic about Newman, and as the Falcons control the minor league club, he will likely be seen in action here when Detroit comes here next time. With Lepine's finger in a cast, the rangy centre player was used only for a short time, and Manager Cecil Hart sent on a "kid line" made up of Mohdou at centre, Larochelle at right wing and George Mantha at left wing jne lying renenmen missed the poke-checking of Lepine. There were a number of Detroit supporters in the gathering and their every goal was received with considerable cheerlne. Th riniiin fans had their innings when the score or tne nanger-Maroon battle was flashed on the scoreboard showing a loss for the locai team. Otherwise the crowd that braved one of the worst storms of the year to watch the game proved orderly and comparatively silint.

Laet night's was the third straight game in which Canadiens have failed to register a victory. On December 30 they tied Maroons, one-all; on January 3, ithey lost to Toronto, 2-1 and last night It was 6-2. The next game Is against New York Americans at the American metro-polls tomorrow night, and the supporters Tl.the Flying Frenchmen are hoping that the bottom of the slump has been reached.

The storm brewing over the heavyweights for the past six months broke in a crash of volleying verbal thunder today as the New York State Athletic Commission stripped Max Schmeling of his championship and drove another title tight into foreign pastures. Rising in all its proud might to stand off the logic of manager of the Teuton.

ofBill Carey, president of Madison Square Garden, and the combined attack of sports writers and fight critics, the commission ruled Schmeling null and void for refusing to sign immediately for a return match with Jack Sharkey. Then, in the same breath, the fistic fathers declared they would accept as a champion the winner of a match between Sharkey and Young Stribling, the pride of Georgia, although they had refused up to this point to consider Stribling as a fit opponent for Sharkey a match to determine an outstanding challenger for Schmeling. i iha nrpceaent OI HO, IOHOW1H5 i.
