Detroit Falcons defeated Montreal Canadiens in a rough-and-tumble National Hockey League game here tonight 3 to 1 in a penalty-tilled match.

The Falcons lost the first home game of the season, but have not been defeated on home Ice since, although they have been tied. Although the Canucks outskated the Detroit squad throughout, they were up against excellent goal-tending by Alex Connell in the Falcon nets, and fine defensive work by Alex Smith, Doug Young and the veteran Reg Noble. Pit Leplne scored the lone Cana-dien goal, midway in the first period, taking Larochelle's pass to draw Connell out for a goal. From then on Connell turned back every effort. Lewis scored on a lone effort late in the first period to tie the count, and Kilrea, who showed great improvement, put the Falcons ahead late in the second period on a pass from Aurie.

Johnny Sorrell took Frank Car-sons pass midway in the final period to put the game away. Seventeen penalties were called, one major going to Young of the Falcons and one to Gagnon, Cana-dien forward.

Among the debris after the round were such great soccer mai hines as West Bromwich Albion, winners of the cup last season, and Everton, the league club who are leading in the fiist divi-sion championship table at present.

The defeats of West Bromwich Albion and Everton will rob the competition of two strong favorites. The fact that so many games were drawn illustrates the keenness of the fights which attracted three-quarters of a million people and netted nearly a quarter of a million dollars to the treasuries of the competing clubs. Fifty-seven thousand people saw West Bromwich Albion beaten on their own grounds by Aston Villa. The cupholders faded after a fine first half, in which they scored through W. G.

Scotland, Jan. 10. As all four leading clubs in senior Scottish soccer won on Saturday HAWKS BRUINS TIE CHICAGO, 111., Jan. 10. Bostons Bruins and the Chicago Black Hawks battled through seventy minutes of play tonight to a 1 to 1 tie, thereby failing to break their tie for possession of second place in the American division of the National Hockey League.

The Black Hawks had the better of the going but suffered another attack of an old ailment poor shooting. The Bruins scored first, Eddie Burke connecting with a solo dash Just before the clos-- of th second period. The Black Hawk! tied it up during the last four minutes of the final period, Cy Wentworth scoring after taking a pass from Tommy Cook. The Hawks continued to have the best of it in the overtime, but could not get by Tiny Thompson again. The attendance was around 12,000.

hi ban It Wins Over OBrien Efforts made to organize the Saskatoon Junior Hockey League failed once more at a meeting of the clubs interested, held in the Elite Cafe Banquet Room Saturday afternoon, although some progress was made towards getting the loop under way. The Wesley club was represented by Joe Ganquish, Nutana Athletic Club by Al Thompson, while H. R. Hines, Al Verner and J. F.

Batter-son attended the meeting in the interests of a third club. These gentlemen stated to those present that they were willing to enter a third team providing they received co-operation from the other two clubs interrested, in regard to releasing the players who could not catch a place with the two older organizations. After much discussion on the subject of players available it was finally decided that a practice would be called early this week in an attempt to get all the spare players out who have not yet signed up with any other club. The men who are backing the latest entry took the stand that they would not enter club unless they were assured that the team would be able to give the other teams in the loop enough competition to make the league interesting for the fans. The date of the practice for the proposed new club has not been announced but any players who wish to try out for a place are requested to get in touch with Al Verner at the Northern Distributors or J.

F. Batterson, phone 5780. The next meeting for the purpose of electing officers and drawing up the schedule, providing the third club is entered, will be held this week. TONIGHT Special to the Star-Phoenix NORTH BATTLEFORD, Jan. 10.

The Saskatoon Crescents advanced another two points in the Northern Saskatchewan Hockey League here last night, when they downed the North Battleford Beavers 4 to 1. The game for the first two periods was the fastest that has been witnessed on the local ice this winter. Beautiful stickhandling, combination and smart defensive play was the feature of the first two periods. The turning point in he game came after Tony Hemmerllng donated the tieing goal for the Crescents, when he assisted Bird to score in the third period. Although the weather was fairly cold, a large crowd was in attendance, and they were kept on their toes throughout the game.

The game was very clean, only four minor penalties for tripping being handed out by referee Emerson. The first period was scoreless, the Beavers having the best of the play. They were through the defense, but through bad judgement and the uncanny work of Indian Evans, they were unable to score. Both teams played good combination. The second period was practically a repetition of the Initial period, both teams going at top speed, but excellent work by the defenses and the goalies prevented a score.

Klein came near scoring but Hailwood came out and knocked him off balance just as he shot. Cairns opened up the scoring for the Beavers shortly after the start of the last period. He combined with Tony Hemmerling and beat Evans from close in. Bird evened the score on an assist from. Tony Hemmerling and then the Beavers 'blew up.

The Crescents second goal came from a scramble in front of the Beaver goal, ONeil batted in the puck. The Beavers were sending up five men in an effort to evea up the score 'and Bird broke through past the lone defense man and beat Hailwood with a low fast shot to the corner of the net. The final was a combined effort of Welsh and Mason, who broke through the entire Beaver team with only Hailwood to beat. Welsh scored. The bell rang with the Beavers pressing hard with their whole team up the Ice, but were unable to beat Evans.

Evans played a wonderful game in goal for the Crescents and Bird, Klein, ONeil and Welsh were the pick of the forwards. Haliwood In goal for the Beavers played his usual steady game and cannot be blamed for the defeat. Piper and the Hemmerling broth ers were outstanding for the locals. SUMMARY First Period No score.

H. Emerson, North I.ESTOCK. Jan. large crowd of fight fans watched Young Tibault give Billy OBrien the sev-eiest punishment he has had for some time. The Saskatoon boxer giving away too much weight to his heavier opponent had no chance.

O'Brien gained the judge's decision in the first round. But he had nothing but the crowd's sympathy for the rest of the fight. Thibault during the second round landed heavily to the head and body and gained a margin in the round. Coming out of his corner at the beginning of the third round, he rushed the lightest man and fighting like a tiger he dropped OBrien with a left hook to the jaw. Taking the count of nine O'Brien struggled gamely to his feet only to be knocked down with a vicious right hand blow to the head.

The bell saved him as the referee was counting eight. He had to be picked up and carried to his corner. Coming out in the fourth round, O'Brien was dazed and groggy, he lasted only long enough for Thibault to knock him down. The referee stopped the fight and gave Thibault the decision on a technical knockout. O'Brien was warmly praised for his grit, he took his punishment gamely and gave his best.

Thibault was in top form and never looked better. The preliminaries were good and gave the crowd plenty of thrills. A It a. Loses To U.B.C. Quintet EDMONTON, Jan.

10-In a game which ran the gamut from the mediocre to the brilliant, the men's basketball team representing the University of British Columbia defeated the University of Alberta here Saturday night by the close score of 2622. Despite this win, 'as well as a decisive defeat of the University of Saskatchewan, a one point loss to the University of Manitoba gave the latter team the varsity title and the Rigby Cup, for the current season.

Montreal Maroons came from behind to beat the New York Americans 42 here last night in a National Hockey League game that was dull to the point of stagnation until the Montrealers came to l(fe in the second period. Eddie Gerard's star-spangled team outplayed the locals by a wide margin in the first period, end Joe Lamb's unassisted goal put them in the lead. The Americans sat back on the defense in the second period with a one-goal lead. Spurred by the remarks of disgruntled supporters, the Maroons came to life when young Wally Kilrea was sent to the penalty box for a minor infraction. They rattled two goals behind Roy Worters while the Americans were short handed, saw Shields knot the count, and then swept ahead with a brace of goals in the final period to win the game hands down.

Nels Stewart, hulking Maroons centre, scored three of the Montreal goals and Baldy North-cott scored the other one. KEELING stars MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, New York, N.Y., Jan. 10-Meiviile Butch Keeling, who plays with the third line of forwards this year but still has the habit of getting goals when the New York Rangers need them badly, set the pace tonight as the Rangers defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs 2 to 0 in the struggle between the leaders of the National Hockey Leagues two divisions. Late in the second period, when there was no score and little prospect of either team getting the better of the fast, well played game, Keeling and Hibby Milks broke away from a Toronto attack and left the Leafs behind In a fast raid. Keeling, left uncovered, took a neat pass and flicked a shot past Goalie Lorne Chabot for a goal that was enough to win.

Doug Brennafi scored the other goal in the third period driving in a long shot just as he stepped over the blue line. Although the game was fast from start to finish and good plays were common, the work of the two goal tenders, Chabot of Toronto and Jahnny Roach of the Rangers, Fresh from their victory over thi highly touted North Battleforc Beavers Saturday night, Reg Bre haut and his Crescents will entertain Prince Albert Mintos at thc Arena rink tonight, in the only scheduled game of the Northern Saskatchewan Hockey League.

It will be the first appearance of the Mintos on local ice since Len Hunter took over the r.eins in the northern city, and judging from the two battles the northerners put up against North Battleford Beavers, the fans should be in for an exciting 60 minutes of hockey.
