Potent College Club Undefeated In Six Contests

HALIFAX, N.S.— The man of the hour in these parts these frosty nights is Martin J. Barry, former National Hockey League star with Boston Bruins and Detroit Red Wings and once winner of the Lady Byng Trophy, in the 1936-37 season. Barry—called “Martin” by his family and “Marty” by practically everybody else—is coach of the Halifax St. Mary’s juniors, the most potent teen-aged aggregation of pucksters ever banded together in these seaward provinces. Apart from the fact that they’re head and shoulders over the remaining Maritime junior teams, the Santamarians are also becoming famous as giant killers.

Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs, the two front-runners in the loop, both enjoy their greatest scoring successes against the sixth-place Chicago Black-Hawks. After Sunday’s games the Red Wings had scored 151 goals, and out of this number 53 were tallied against the Hawks. Toronto fired no less than 44 of their 143 goals into the Chicago citadel. FAVORITE CLUES After Chicago, the Detroit crew found Boston Bruins; and New…
