Team Canada 3. Czechs

as championship nears

By MEL -SUFRIN
CP Sports Editor

PRAGUE (CP) — Pat
Hickey, a 40-goal scorer
with New York Rangers
in the National Hockey
League this season,
scored twice and assisted
ona third goal Saturday
night as Team Canada
defeated Czechoslovakia
3-2 in a warmup for the
world championship
starting here Wednesday.

The victory against the
defending world
champions proved that
the young Canadian
team’s two wins over the
Swedish national club in
Goteborg last week
weren't flukes.

“TI understand this is
_ the first time a Canadian
team has won in this
building,’’ said Harry
Howell, head coach of the
club that was assembled
only a week ago.

Some of the Canadians
were on the team that lost
72 and 4-] to
Czechoslovakia here last
year in exhibition games
enroute to Vienna for the
world championship in
which Canada finished
fourth.

Referee Ove Dahlberg
handed out 20 minutes in
penalties to the Czechs

and 16 to. the Canadians,

Four: penalties went ‘to
Jan Zajicec; a truculent
young defenceman who is
ikely to receive a lecture
from coach Jan Starsi.

“Zajicec has to. im-
prove his discipline,”
said Starsi when asked
about the defenceman’s
deportment.

tarsi said of Team
Canada:

“The Canadians have
confirmed the reports we
have received from
Sweden that they are all
very good skaters and
very good on defence and
that they’re’ playing a
very disciplined game.”
OPENS THE SCORING

Hickey, who. has
collected three goals and
three assists in Canada’s

4

three games, opened the
scoring at 5:55 of the first
perod, batting the puck
out of the air past goalie
Jiri Holecek on a rebound
from Marcel Dionne of
Los Angeles Kings. No
assist was awarded.

With Jaroslav Pouzar
serving a cross-checking
penalty,
Rick Hampton of Cleve-
land Barons made it 2-0 at
9:18 of the second period,
converting a neat pass
from Hickey who
grabbed the puck off the

oards to the left and
behind the net.

Hickey increased the
margin to 3-0 at 10:32

defenceman .-

when he knocked in
another rebound off a
shot from the point, Jean
Pronovost of Pittsburgh
Penguins assisting.

With Hampton off for a
questionable cross-
checking penalty,
defenceman Jiri Bubla
scored the first
Czechoslovak goal at
16:44 of the second

riod. He fired the puck
rom just inside the
blueline and it dribbled
through Dan Bouchard's
legs after he had made a

loved save. It was the
irst powerplay goal
scored against the Ca-
nadians.

_ Czechoslovak

The second
oal, at
3:14 of the thir riod,
was another odd one.
Viadimir Martinec shot
from the corner, the puck
bounced off Bouchard’s
stick and just managed to
make it into the corner.
As against Sweden, the
Canadians played a
disciplined game. And
the youthful defensive
team of Hampton, Pat
Ribble, Brad Maxwell
and Bob Picard was
impressively efficient.

The defence which will’

further be strengthened
by the addition of Dennis
K ams.

PRESS .

Trainer Woody
Stephens, who won the
1974 Kentucky Derby
with Cannonade, thinks
he has a horse that can do
it again this year.

He won the $109,900
Wood Memorial at
Aqueduct on Saturday
with Believe It, owned by
James Mills. The 1%-
mile race was the final
prep on the east coast ior
the May 6 Derby.

“We'll go to Kentucky
on Monday with Believe
* It, but I think we'll leave
the other one (Quadratic)
here to freshen a bit,”
said Stephens. :

Quadratic set the pace
until there was a half
mile remaining, then
Believe It shot into the
lead midway through the
final turn,

Believe It,'a Hickory
Tree Stable colt who
chased unbeaten Sen-
‘sitive Prince and Alydar
across the finish line in
his two previous starts,
opened up a six-length
lead at the head off the
stretch and finished 3!
lengths in front of Darby
Creek Road.

Track Reward was
another 4% lengths back

and two lengths ahead of
Slap Jack, winner of the
Gotham Stakes at
Aqueduct on April 8.

And as for Darby Creek
Road’s Derby chances,
trainer Lou Rondinello
said: “He'll remain here
another week and we'll
see how he stays to-
gether.”

Believe It crossed the
finish line in 1:49 4-5 with
jockey Eddie Maple.

Terrace sports scene—

by Murdo MacDonald
What's
where's the big interest?
Hockey has ended. With it
hundreds of kids and
young adults alike have
ung up their skates. Tc
do what? The same can
be said about skiers. With
the exception of a
relatively small number
ox downhillers who tek
Hudson Bay
ountain, the season has
ended. Snowmobilers,
curlers, basketball
players, badmintoneers,
ete. have all hung up their
strips. All are resigned to
next fall when the call
goes out for another whirl
at fail-winter activities.
What happens , to all
these dedicated, clean-
livin lypes? How do they
spend the spring-summer
hours? Do they simply
turn to jogging, gar-
dening‘or whatever? The
Herald intends finding
out, To this end they ask
for the co-operation and
help from all individuals-
groups engaged in
athletics and-or
recreation, Let-us know
what ‘you are doing so we
can tell others. Maybe we
can encourage others to
come out and join with

you. The more the
merrier they say.
The Herald's _ staff

wants you to know that

plane flight, “horseback

going -on — riding, stockcar racing,

track and field — the list,

is endless, We can only -

publicize what your

group is doing with your -

help. So give us a call or
drop in to see us. We'll be
more than gtad to learn

‘about yoru group’s ac-

they are interested in all —

phases of the local out-
doors pursuits. We will
attempt to supply fair
and reasonable coverage
to whatever is taking
place. Exposure won't be
restricted to the major
sports only. Eve

will be Y considered.
Naturally we will be
influenced to some
degree by how the
majority puts in their

me. °

The Herald will at-
tempt to cover the usual
spring activities such as

jnor league baseball,
softball, baseball, soccer,
lacrosse, But what about
the other things such as
sky diving, hang gliding,
mountain climbing,
hiking, fishing archery,
shooting, tennis, model

tivities and get something
into print. Keep us in-
formed and we'll see to it
that the world (7) hear
about it. “!

Don’t be ‘shy just
because your particular
activity has only a few
involved and just got

started up. Remember ©

that are

people

inquisitive and curious — ~

they like to know what
others are doing.
Sometimes they get in-
terested enough to take
part .themselves. Other
times thoguh they are

merely contented to read .

about it. Just because
they won't do it them-
selves doesn’t mean that
they don't care! Only a
few are talented enough

to play whereas the rest -

of us make up that happy
group called fans, This
appeal therefore is
directed to the ‘‘jocks”
and their executives,
