<div class="byline">By HEC MacLEAN</div><p>CALGARY, Alta. &mdash;</p><p>Any one who was previously under the impression that Regina Capitals were doing Dave (Sweeney) Schriner a favor by giving him the opportunity to make a comeback in hockey may quickly reverse their feelings. Sweeney, who thrilled thousands of hockey goers for years in the N.H.L. with his fine play for New York Americans and Toronto Maple Leafs, is pulling his weight, and in a big way too.</p><p>When Caps went on their last road jaunt Sweeney bagged two goals to spark Regina to a 4-3 triumph against Frank Currie&rsquo;s potent Edmonton Flyer crew. Schriner was the hero again a few nights later when he slipped a neat pass to Bill Kyle to provide a 4-3 overtime decision over Lethbridge Maple Leafs.</p><p>Caps&rsquo; win over Edmonton sent Regina into the lead and the Victory was considered somewhat as an upset considering Art Somers&rsquo; boys lost a 5-1 verdict to Calgary Stampeders the previous evening.</p><h2><b>Hasn&rsquo;t Lost His Touch</b></h2><p>And so it seems the old master hasn&rsquo;t lost much of the hockey smoothness he displayed in pro ranks. Many were dubious that Schriner could make the grade but in his first few games he has ehown he will give opposing net-mrinders plently of bad moments before the schedule rolls to an end.</p><p>Only disappointment so far in Sweeney&rsquo;s comeback role is the fact he didn&rsquo;t make such a hot debut in his old stamping ground against Calgary. Sweeney had an off night but he&rsquo;ll be in the Footh-kijis City several more times this year and probably will give a lot of fans the treat for which many of them go to see him play.</p><p>Regina and Edmonton appear the strong teams in the circuit but both have had trouble with Calgary and Lethbridge. The later club has plenty of strenght and it wouldn&rsquo;t surprise this writer if Pete Slobodian&rsquo;s crew was knocking at the door in urgent fashion this term.</p><p>Remember, Lethbridge and Regina are hungry hockey clubs and players of this kind can usually come up with a better performance than a squad which lacks quite as much Incentive. However, Edmonton Flyers claim they will win the Allan Cup again this year so anything can happen.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0015-01117/984406-1-eng-US/f0015-012.jpg" title="f0015-01" width="520" height="781"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b><i>Capital Smoothie</i></b></p><p><b>SWEETY SCHRINER</b></p></figcaption></div><p>So far this term it&rsquo;s the old timers of the league who are holding the individual scoring spot light. Bing Merluk can&rsquo;t be classed as an oldster but he&rsquo;s right up there along with Dune Grant of Stampeders, Schriner of Regina and Handy Andy Clovechok, one of the best pucksters in the circuit. Handy will be remembered for the fine play he turned in last year against Ottawa Senators in the Allan Cup final, especially in the last two contests.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Sweeney Is Flying Again With Regina

<div class="byline">By HEC MacLEAN</div><p>CALGARY, Alta. &mdash;</p><p>Mervyn &ldquo;Red&rdquo; Dutton, who was one of the most respected committee room men when in the National Hockey League, Is cracking the whip again!</p><p>But this time, instead of the Dutton whip hand being wielded from the N.H.L. Presidency, it&rsquo;s in the capacity of Governor of the new Western Junior Hockey League, which went into action for the first time this fall.</p><p>At a recent meeting in Calgary Dutton slapped a $50 fine on the four Alberta teams for playing pucksters who were improperly registered. Teams fined were Medicine Hat Tigers, Bellevue Lions, Calgary Buffaloes and&rsquo; Lethbridge Native Sons.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0001-025/984637-1-eng-US/f0001-022.jpg" title="f0001-02" width="499" height="772"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b>Takes No Guff!</b></p><p><b>MERVYN &ldquo;RED&rdquo; DUTTON</b></p></figcaption></div><p>&ldquo;And next time the fine levied will be $250,&rdquo; barked Dutton when he handed out the bad news to the teams.</p><p>&ldquo;From now on no player will be permitted to compete in a league game unless he is properly registered and has a transfer or release from the team he played with last year.&rdquo;</p><p>Fining of the four Alberta teams in the Six-club circuit was the first official decision handed out by Dutton.</p><p>Names of players on the various teams who were improperly registered were withheld but it is known that Lethbridge Native Sons played the first game of the year with six Ineligible players. Since then majority of these have been given official sanction to play but some had to be dropped because the young pucksters couldn&rsquo;t get releases.</p><p>It all just goes to show that the red-headed one &mdash; who as a player was the bane of the officials, and as N.H.L President became one of the toughest individuals going &mdash; hasn&rsquo;t changed a bit.</p><p>It was during Dutton&rsquo;s tenure of office that the official crack-down was made on Babe Pratt, the husky Toronto Maple Leafs rearguard who was accused of betting on Leafs in a number of games. Dutton suspended him, but later lifted the ban when representations were made on Pratt&rsquo;s behalf.</p><p>Dutton, who was N.H.L. prexy from Frank Calder&rsquo;s death in 1943 until Clarence Campbell&rsquo;s appointment in the 1946-47 season, had retired to the peaceful contracting life until he heeded the call of hockey to take up his new duties this fall.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

He was slated for a tryout with the Toronto Maple Leafs the same year that Wilf Cude came along. Just before the Leafs went into training, McQueston, who is an outstanding inside right at football, was playing with the Toronto Ulster United when he fractured his leg.</p><p>The injury not only deprived him of a chance to make the &ldquo;Big Time&rdquo;, but forced him to take the next best chance presented him, that of spare goalie with the Providence Reds the following season.</p><p>So marked has been his performances with the Millers that Bill Tobin of the Chicago Blackhawks seriously entertained the thought of dealing him for the &ldquo;Hawks&rdquo; a year ago.</p><p>While still an amateur, McQueston made O. H. A. history with both the Toronto Goodyears and Toronto Stratfords. He was with the Goodyears when they won the O. H. A. championship three years in a row.</p><p>His record with the Millers in the three seasons he has played with them follows:</p><div class="figure-block image-bleed"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0002-0238/982834-1-eng-US/f0002-022.jpg" title="f0002-02" width="1060" height="173"></div><p>He is of Irish descent, born in Toronto, married, stands 5&rsquo; 8&rdquo; and weighs 170 lbs.</p><p>One of his likeable traits is a happy disposition.

Soccer Injury Came Close To Finishing McQueston’s Career

<div class="byline">By GLEN GARRY</div><div class="image-hero"><img title="f0002-03" src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0002-0334/982872-1-eng-US/f0002-032.jpg"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b><i>No, He&rsquo;s Not Sleeping</i></b></p><p><b>THAT&rsquo;S &ldquo;BUTCH&rdquo; BOUCHARD on his back and the puck underneath him. The action took placp during the recent game between Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins. Eddie Kryzanowski, Boston rookie, is daintily stepping over Bouchard while Murph Chamberlain and referee King Clancy look on. The fellow you can see a bit of behind Kryzanowski is Kenny Smith, also of Boston.</b></p></figcaption></div><p>HOUSTON, Texas. &mdash;</p><p>A freshman playing-coach who should make a name for himself is Wilf Field, pilot of the champion Houston Huskies of the United States Hockey League. Wilf faces a very difficult task, and that is to improve on perfect ion. Last season the Huskies, who had four coaches during the season, led the Southern Division and then defeated Kansas City in the North-South series for the League championship and the Directors&rsquo; Cup. They then went on to set back the Minneapolis Millers in the playoff championship for the Paul Loudon Trophy. &ldquo;Toe&rdquo; Blake, now leading the Buffalo Bisons, was coach of the Huskies for the of the season and during the playoffs. Toe did a magnificent job and while Field has his sights set on another championship for the Huskies he knows that he faces a terrific battle as every club in the league has added punch and defensive strength to its lineup.</p><h2>Caught Eyes Of Scouts</h2><p>Wilf first caught the eye of the hockey scouts when he was a standout in the Memorial Cup series between the Winnipeg Monarchs and the Sudbury Wolf Cubs in the 1936 championship series. The Monarchs surprised everyone, including themselves, by whipping the Cubs in three games at the Winnipeg Amphitheatre. Other players in that series who turned porfessional were Pauk Gauthier and Joe Krol also of the Monarchs, and Chuck Shannon, Don Grosso, Nakina Smith and Hec Pozzo of the Cubs.</p><p>Field was signed by the New York Americans and spent his first season in monied ranks with the Providence Reds and Springfield Indians. The next season 1936-37 found Wilf with the New Haven Eagles in the International American League. The Americans had a working agreement with Seattle in the P.C.H.L. and Wilf was sent to the coast for the 1937-38 season and hit his stride with the coast club leading the defensemen in scoring with 12 goals and 12 assists for 24 points.</p><p>For the next four seasons Wilf was the most dependable defenseman with the Americans. He enjoyed his best season during 1941-42 which was the last season the Americans operated. Wilf, along with just about the entire Amerk lineup, was in the service for the next two years and it wasn&rsquo;t until the start of the 1944 campaign that he got into action.</p><p>He had been transferred to the Montreal Canadiens, but the Habitants, rich in backline material, transferred his contract tp the Chicago Black Hawks where he finished the season.</p><p>Buffalo has been the scene of Field&rsquo;s activities for the past three seasons and he has been one of the chief reasons why the Bisons won the championship of the American Hockey League in 194546 and reached Series &ldquo;D&rdquo; in 4647 and were finalists against Cleveland last season.</p><p>Field has as his partner in operating the Houston club, Roy Goldsworthy, who coached Buffalo last season. Roy has been named manager of the Huskies and will devote much of his time to promoting hockey in the great Texas city while Wilf is running the club on the ice.</p><h3><b>The Hockey News</b></h3><p>Published weekly, except monthly May through September, by HOCKEY NEWS COMPANY, 603A Sun Life Bldg., Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Wilt Field Has Ditticult Task In Coaching Houston

<div class="byline">By LEN BRAMSON</div><div class="image-hero"><img title="f0003-01" src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0003-0147/982910-1-eng-US/f0003-012.jpg"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b>HERE ROBERTSON TALKS hockey with Jimmy Orlando following a Montreal Royal practice. Jimmy is a special pal of George&rsquo;s and they were teammates last season on the Royals. Robertson dropped in to see his friends workout and to congratulate them on leading the Quebec Senior lague.</b></p><p><b><i>Visits Old Teammates</i></b></p></figcaption></div><p>MONTREAL, Que.&mdash;</p><p>At exactly three minutes and one second of the first period of the opening game of the Montreal Canadiens 1948-&rsquo;49 season, the trade which sent Buddy O&rsquo;Connor and Frankie Eddolls to the New York Rangers in exchange for Hal Laycoe, Joe Bell and an unamed amateur began to pay off for the Flying French men.</p><p>At that three minute mark, George Robertson, the unnamed amateur in the deal took a pass from Elmer Lach and dribbled the puck between Chuck Rayner&rsquo;s pads to become the first Canadien to break into the scoring list in the curent season.</p><p>In his five games the 21-year-old Robertson scored twice and assisted on three other goals&mdash;quite a start for a rookie.</p><p>Although tne season is young yet, Coach Dick Irvin is very satisfied with the showing of his new Punch Line wingman thus far.</p><h2><b>Irvin High On Kid</b></h2><p>&ldquo;He played center with the Royals last season and I&rsquo;ve switched him over to left wing,&rdquo; Irvin told me. &ldquo;Being a center, naturally he&rsquo;s not used to the defensive type of hockey he has to play now. It&rsquo;s not&rsquo;easy for a player to change positions like that. He doesn&rsquo;t know how to take his man out properly yet, but he&rsquo;ll learn.&rdquo;</p><p>Asked why he had chosen Robertson for the spot which, up to now, nobody seemed able to fill, the grey-haired coach replied that the slender speedster, although he had a very mediocre season with the Royals last year, showed promire.</p><p>&ldquo;I saw him do some nice things with the puck last season,&rdquo; Irvin said, &ldquo;and when I came East to open training 1 asked that Robertson be at my camp.</p><p>This may sound funny to a lot&rsquo; of people but I think George plays a lot like Milt Schmidt played when he was a junior. If Robertson keeps improving like he is he&rsquo;ll be the rookie of the year, and if he turns out as good as Sehmidt I&rsquo;ll be satisfied.&rdquo;</p><p>Up until the time that Robertson netted his first goal in N.H.L. hockey, the stick and puck lawyers around Montreal were convinced that General Manager Frank Selke had made on of his very rare mistakes when he pulled the five man deal. They were convinced that Frank Boucher had put one over on him. Rumors that Irvin and O&rsquo;Connor didn&rsquo;t hit it off too well didn&rsquo;t help Selke any, however he openly took all the blame for the deal which every body but Irvin and himself thought had backfired.</p><h2><b>Looked Bad For Time</b></h2><p>Both Bell and Laycoe had failed to make the Canadiens and were subsequently sent to Buffalo. Robertson was playing on the third line for the Royals and didn&rsquo;t seem to be having a very good season, so it looked as though the lawyers were right &mdash; Selke had given away two players for nothing.</p><p>Oddly enough Robertson&rsquo;s first goal was at the expense of the Rangers and just as odd was the fact that both O&rsquo;Connor and Eddolls were Being in a Montreal hospital when the goal was scored, recuperating from injuries received in an automobile accident a few days before. The only active N. H. L. player in the five man deal that night was Robertson.</p><p>When Robbie, as most of his teammates know him, reported to the Canadiens training camp in Montreal last season he didn&rsquo;t know a soul in the city. He had been at his summer camp at Mlnniki, Ontario, when he heard about the trade, he was very surprised and a little disappointed. Having finished out the previous season with the New York Rovers he felt he was on his way to making himself a berth with the Rangers. Frank Boucher liked George and made many promises that the the youngster figured would soon be carried out.</p><h2><b>Glad He Stayed</b></h2><p>His parents tried to discourage him from a hockey career. His brother Dave had won scholarships in school and they hoped George would follow in his footsteps.</p><p>However Robbie didn&rsquo;t have his heart in his studies; he loved sports.</p><p>&ldquo;I was always getting into trouble in school,&rdquo; he laughed, &ldquo;besides I was never very smart in classes.&rdquo;</p><p>Today both the Robertson boys are successful in their field. George is considered the best prospect to step into Toe Blake&rsquo;s position since the Old Lamplighter decided to call it a day and his brother Dave is a professor at Columbia University in New York.</p><p>The 6&rsquo;1&rdquo; blond Winnipeger got his first taste of fame in 194 6 while playing for the Winnipeg Monarchs in the Memorial Cup finals against Toronto St. Mikes. The Eastern champs, with such players as Fleming Mackell, Red Kelly, Ted Sloan, Les Costello, Ed. Harrison and Ed. Sandford were odds on favourites to take the series in four games straight. However, Robertson had other ideas. Playing in the seventh and last game of the series with the score tied at 2-2 in the last period, Robertson finally found his stride and pumped two goals past Pat Boehiner to give his team a 4-2 victory and the Memorial Cup.</p><h2><b>Signed Up At Last</b></h2><p>The next season George had a mittfull of offers. Finally it was a choice between Port Arthur and Moose Jaw, then Dave Pinkney of Stratford showed up at the Robertson home. Pinkney made a good impression on the family and left Winnipeg with the youngster&rsquo;s name signed to a card. He was also given a job at the Kroehler Furniture factory and he liked it so much that after each season he goes back to the plant.</p><p>Robertson considers himself a very lucky young man. &ldquo; I suppose thousands of kids dream about playing on the Punch Line,&rdquo; he told us, &ldquo;I guess I&rsquo;m one of the lucky ones.&rdquo;</p><div class="figure-block image-bleed"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0003-0237/982903-1-eng-US/f0003-022.jpg" title="f0003-02" width="1144" height="1597"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b>Irvin Likes Him</b></p><p><b>GEORGE ROBERTSON</b></p></figcaption></div><p>George is a modest young man, and while he fully realizes he has what it takes to be a great star he also realizes that it&rsquo;s going to take a lot of hard work.</p><p>In Montreal, George rooms with Joe Carveth whom he calls dad. Carveth is considerably older than Robbie and the youngster&rsquo;s sense of humor prompted him to tack the nickname on Carveth.</p><p>Jimmy brlando, the former Detroit Red Wings star, is also a very good friend of George&rsquo;s. It was Orlando who pinned the &ldquo;Rook&rdquo; onto Robertson when he first came to Montreal.</p><p>As we said before Robertson is a modest sort of fellow who seems to take everything in his stride. He very seldom gets mad and has a territic sense of humor.</p><p>In the off season Robertson works in Stratford. The people of the Ontario town took to Robbie like a duck takes to water and they look forward to seeing him every summer. So well liked is he that last year he had his first taste of being an after dinner speaker when he gave a talk on sDortsmanship to som of the town&rsquo;s school children. However George wouldn&rsquo;t elaborate on the story. Working in Stratford gives him a chance-to do a lot of paddling and swimming and to play tennis and golf which aro his favourite pastimes. He is also a habitual reader of western magazines and is an ardent movie fan.</p><h2><b>He&rsquo;s Bachelor, Girls&rsquo;</b></h2><p>Robbie, is one of hockey&rsquo;s bachelors, he has no particular girl but has a tremendous number of friends. In Winnipeg he chums around with Tom Johnson now playing with the Buffalo Bisons in the American League.</p><p>He smokes a little and drinks even less. During the playing season he keeps in tip top shape. He&rsquo;s up every morning at eight, always eats a large breakfast at the Forum Coffee Shop and practises every day from 10 to 12. When he doesn&rsquo;t practise he sleeps until noon. He seldom eats a big lunch and on advice from Carveth, he never eats a steak before a game.</p><p>George is a product of Winnipeg&rsquo;s school and open air rinks. I Born in the Peg on May 11th, 1927, he now resides in West Kil-donan, a suburb of Winnipeg. He attended West Kildonan Collegiate where he was regarded as a pretty good soccer player as well as a star on the hockey team. He also played for the juvenile Monarchs for one year and the team went to the Western juvenile finals. They were eliminated by Moose Jaw.</p><p>The next season most oof the players graduated to junior and in the second season, under Wally Monson, they won the Memorial Cup. In the Memorial Cup finals against St. Mikes, Robertson scored 11 points in seven games.</p><p>Bill Couchan, scouting for the Rangers, spotted Robbie when he was 16 and placed him on the Blueshirts negotiation list.</p><p>&ldquo;I didn&rsquo;t care whose list I went on,&rdquo; Robertson told the Hockey News, &ldquo;they gave me a hundred bucks for signing and that was big money in those days.&rdquo;</p><p>Robbie played 12 games for the New York Rovers in the 1946-47 season and the trade followed. He joined Frank Carlin&rsquo;s Royals and was made the pivotman between HOW Morenz Jr. and Bob Fryday; both had played for the Montreal Junior Canadiens the season before.</p><h2><b>Big Surprise In Store</b></h2><p>When George reported to training camp this season he had visions of playing for Buffalo or Dallas and was very surprised when Frank Selke offered him a contract with the Canadiens.</p><p>Robbie regards Lach as the greatest player in the game today and Elmer considers George a young man with a future. The AllStar center often keeps his new wingman after practice to show him a thing or two.</p><p>One of to first persons to congratulate Robbie on his showing after his first game was Frank Boucher. Your reporter and Robertson were watching the Rangers practise the morning after the first game when Boucher leaned over the boards to extend a hand to the lean speedster.</p><p>&ldquo;You played great,&rdquo; said Boucher, &ldquo;you belong up there, yes sir, you really do.&rdquo;<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Reds Buy Jack McGill From Buffalo Bisons

<p>NEW YORK, N. Y.&mdash;</p><p>There are big plans in the wind for erection of another huge ice palace in New York City, but until it materializes there is no intention of letting Madison Square Garden go to rack and ruin&mdash;or afterwards either, for that matter. The ice plant in the Garden last summer underwent a thorough overhauling, and the most up-to-date equipment available was installed to make the Garden second to none in the business.</p><p>After Rangers were bumped out of the Stanley Cup playoffs last spring, and after other commitments had been met, workmen dug in at the Garden for their mammoth reconstruction job. The floor was ripped up and the old pipes and lines removed. Then began the summer-long task of placing the new equipment.</p><p>The overall project &mdash; providing ice equipment for the Garden&rsquo;s Iceland Rink as well as the arena floor&mdash;was undertaken at a cost of $200,000.</p><h2><b>Some Circulation!</b></h2><p>Just to give an idea of the immensity of the task, the one and one-quarter inch pipes, if stretched out in a straight line, would extend a full 14 miles. This maze of tubing all had to be laid in an area comprising only a few hundred feet.</p><p>Approximately 240,000 gallons of brine circulates through the system every hour when the freezing equipment is turned on, making it possible to lay an entirely new skin of ice a few hours after a boxing match or basketball game has been held in the Garden.</p><h2><b>keeps On Freezing</b></h2><p>When the freezing process is started at midnight preceding a hockey night, the hundreds of thousands of gallons of freezing mixture pour through the system continuously, all through that night and the next day. Usually the plant Is not turned off until well into the third period of the game, thus keeping the ice at a constant temperature and providing a hard, uniform surface for the puckchasers.</p><p>The present Madison Square Garden has an ice surface measuring 186 feet long by 86 feet in width, from sideboards to sideboards. While not the largest rink in the N.H.L., its ice surface compares favorably with that of the huge Chicago Stadium, which seats 16,666 fans and has a total capacity, including standees, of 20,004 souls. Despite that, the ice surface is only 187 feet by 85 feet.</p><h2><b>Some Comparisons</b></h2><p>By comparison, the Boston Arena ice surface is 195 x 83; Detroit Olympia 200 x 83; Montreal Forum 200 x 85; and Toronto Maple Leaf Gardens the same.</p><p>An innovation at the Garden, which seats 15,284 and has a total capacity of 15,925, is the plexiglass guard above the boards which extends all around the rink. The only other N.H.L. rink with this protective device is the Boston Arena although there is plexiglass screening at the goal ends of the rink in Toronto and Montreal.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

The new equipment, which cost a cool $200,000 to install, is shown being laid in the vast arena. With completion of that job, the Garden now can claim the most modern ice-making plant in existence today.</b></p></figcaption></div><p>CALGARY, Alta.</p><p>Competition turned in so far in the Western Canada Junior League indicates a red hot race will be provided. Lethbridge, rated a co-favorite earlier this year with Moose Jaw Canucks, haven&rsquo;t been having things their own way in the first few games, in fact Native Sons will have to buck up considerably or Lethbridge will be one of the two squads which sits out of the playoffs after the league schedule is terminated.</p><p>Calgary Buffaloes appear to have the best aggregation assembled in the Foothills City in many years. Lone Carr and Art RiceJones have a majority of last year&rsquo;s players to work with and the club is bigger,.faster and more experienced than the 1947 Buffalo sextet.</p><p>Joe Fisher&rsquo;s Medicine Hat Tigers look to have gotten away to a poor start but are starting to show power at this stage. Tigers&rsquo; best effort to date was a 4-2 triumph over Scotty Munro&rsquo;s Sons.</p><p>Murray Armstrong&rsquo;s Regina Pats improved their position considerably by walloping Bellevue Lions 7-3 in the first interprovincial game of the schedule. Pats bunched four goals in the first frame and from that point on the clubs remained even but they still count on the scoreboard, it doesn&rsquo;t matter whether they come in the first or third periods.</p><p>A good deal can be figured out after both Regina and Moose Jaw make a swing through Alberta and play four games apiece. Probably the team with the best average on the road will head the circuit.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Western Juniors Setting Red Hot Pace For Crown

<p>THE INTERNATIONAL HOCKEY WEEKLY</p><p>Founded October 1, 1947</p><p>Published by Hockey News Company, 603A Sun Life Building. Montreal, Que.</p><p>Yearly Subscription Price $2.50 in Canada &mdash; $3.50 in U.S.A.</p><p>Authorized as second class mail, Post Office Department, Ottawa.</p><p>Printed in Canada</p><p>VOL. 2 NOVEMBER 10, 1948. No. 6</p><p>A year ago the National Hockey League took a long-awaited step, and staged the first, official league All-Star game in its history, as the first of the Annual Games which are to be presented from now on.</p><p>And just one week ago, on Wednesday, November 3, the defending Stanley Cup champions, Toronto Maple Leafs, again played the League All-Stars in the Second Annual Game. Once again, the final score showed the All-Stars victorious &mdash; this time by a 3-1 count, adding to their 4-3 victory in the opener last year.</p><p>This year&rsquo;s game was played after the season was under way and the players persumably in better form than they were last Fall when the Game preceded the season opening. Yet it failed to receive the support and interest it should have. There are any number of reasons advanced, and some of them bear scrutiny.</p><p>The chief objection seems to be that the Game to be played in the city of the defending champions. That was the case last year, when the All-Star spectacle was given a rousing welcome in the home rink of the Stanley Cup Maple Leafs.</p><p>Yet for last week&rsquo;s game, despite the buildup and the inherent drama, only 15,000 fans turned out in the huge Chicago Stadium, which can accommodate 20,000. That is quite a contrast with the crowded rink which saw the First Annual Game and adds weight to the argument for the Cup winners acting as hosts. In fact, it can be almost taken for granted that such a procedure will be followed in future years.</p><p>Another suggestion which could improve the calibre of play would be to set the game back even farther &mdash; say until January or February &mdash; when all players would be really flying &mdash; and to have an up to the minute selection of stars. Very often it happens that a man who has had a good year the season before and has made the All-Stars, is suffering a slump when the Annual Game rolls around.</p><p>If left until later in the season, men could be picked while they were at the peak of their form. This would not necessarily interfere with the present method of selecting Annual All-Stars, since this team could be picked as usual at the conclusion of the regular schedule and Cup playoffs.</p><p>This team would go down in the books as the Official All-Stars for that year, and in most cases it would contain the same names as the playing All-Star squad chosen for the January or February game. But the men who played in the Annual Game under this system would be the real stars of the current year, not the preceding one.</p><p>The playing team might even be selected by the fans, as is now the case in baseball. This would create even more interest, and would inevitably result in packed houses wherever the Game was played.</p><p>Still another suggestion advanced is to have the AllStar selections from the N.H.L. meet the cream of the crop in the American Hockey League. But here again there are difficulties under the present setup. Since most of the A.H.L. teams have N.H.L. affiliations, there might be difficulties. Players in the A.H.L. one season may be in the N.H.L. next year, and vice versa, causing unlimited confusion.</p><p>Until the A.H.L. teams operate independently of the other circuit, it would seem there are too many difficulties in the road to allow such an inter-league set-to.</p><h2><b>IT&rsquo;S A VALUABLE GET-TOGETHER</b></h2><p>But despite the various aspects of the problem for the Annual All-Star Game, it can&rsquo;t be denied that it is a worthwhile project, and one which will become even more valuable as the years go by.</p><p>One vital feature is the opportunity it affords people interested in hockey to get together once a year in an informal atmosphere and talk things over. Representatives from all the pro leagues and many of the teams meet at the All-Star Game to discuss mutual problems of the game, do a little player dickering if they feel like it, and generally get a great deal of benefit from the meeting.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

ANNUAL GAME PROBLEMS

They&rsquo;ll be glad to hear from you.</b></p><p><b>As for the annual we would suggest at this time that you secure copy of the Hockey Guide edited by James C. Hendy. Most sporting stores have it.)</b></p><h2><b>THE READER S RIGHT</b></h2><p>Dear Sir:</p><p>In your October 20, 1948, edition of HOCKEY NEWS you stated that Doug McCaig of Detroit had been injured. I may be wrong but I would swear that the player shown above that writeup was not McCaig but Joe Carveth of Montreal and I am enclosing the picture and I would like to know whether I am right or wrong.</p><p>Bob Armstrong.</p><p>Detroit, Mich.</p><p><b>(Yes, you are right about that.)</b></p><h2><b>WANTS RADIO LOG</b></h2><p>Dear Sir:</p><p>No questions about it your paper is tops, but please in the very near future put the time broadcasts of future games somewhere in your paper.</p><p>If I can&rsquo;t see enough hockey I want to listen to it.</p><p>So how about it? It sure helped last year.</p><p>Rose Parlich</p><p>Montreal, Que.</p><p><b>(It is our intention to print a full list of radio stations, which carry pro hockey broadcasts in the near future. We are gathering the necessary details now to give the fans a complete broadcast lineup.)</b></p><h2><b>MALONE HOLDS RECORD</b></h2><p>Dear Sir:</p><p>Can you help me out on this argument I have with another fan down this way? We know that Joe Malone scored seven goals in one game away back when, but I say that Syd Howe also scored seven goals in one game a few seasons ago. Just to settle the argument, which is which?</p><p>Bob Williams</p><p>Providence, R.I.</p><p><b>(Afraid you lose that bet, Bob. Howe scored six goals in one night, the time Detroit whitewashed New York Rangers 15-0, on January 23, 1944, at Detroit. Malone got his seven on January 31, 1920 at Quebec, when the Bulldogs of that city defeated Toronto St. Pats 10-6. In other words, Joe won the game all by himself.)</b></p><h2><b>WANTS MORE BIOGRAPHIES</b></h2><p>Dear Sir:</p><p>I have been a reader of your fine publication since it first came out, a little over a year ago, and find it very interesting. Your crossword puzzles are excellent and very enjoyable and so are most of the other features, but I have one complaint, and that is that you do not have enough biographies of players which most good sports publications have.

He was a winger then, but moved back to defense in 1919 and for three seasons after that teamed on the rearguard with the great Sprague Cleghorn.)</b></p><h2><b>THAT POINT RECORD</b></h2><p>Dear Sir:</p><p>I know you have printed this before, but I&rsquo;ve lost my copy so would be obliged If you could give me the information. What was the total points made by Bill Cowley when he set the N.H.L. record, and who were the closest behind him?

Toe Blake was within shooting range the latter Cowley mark when he broke his leg last January. At rhe time, Toe had 260 goals and 329 assists for 589 points in regular season and playoffs at the time. In season play only he had 235-292-527.

To my mind a game between tho Maroons and Canadiens was worth going miles to see. &ldquo;Baldy&rdquo; Northcott, left winger for the Maroons, was my favorite player and I have often wondered what happened to him after he gave up hockey. Do you think you could tell me?</p><p>Bob Hayward.</p><p>Saint John, N.B.</p><p><b>(Sure we can tell you, Bob, &ldquo;Baldy&rdquo; is the owner of a sporting goods store out in Ills native Winnipeg.

Family Act Parted

<p><b>&mdash; By &lsquo;BUNNY&rsquo; MORGANSON &mdash;</b></p><p>Like Ol&rsquo; Man River, Hamilton Tigers keep rolling on and on and winning games in the Ontario Hockey Association&rsquo;s Senior &ldquo;A&rdquo; series. Champions of Ontario&rsquo;s senior hockey for many years the poor 01&rsquo; Tigers, counted by many before the season started to be definitely on the way out, are heading the parade. They have dropped but two games, both away from home in Kitchener and Owen Sound when Clarence Shillington was forced to lay-off because of a knee, injury. Addition of Hal Cooper, former Buffalo Bison, who returned to senior hockey this winter along with the revival of Dillon Brady, who helped the Tigers through many a hectic campaign until he elected to remain in retirement last season, has bolstered the Tiger&rsquo;s hopes even greater than in past years.</p><p>As for the rest of the senior &ldquo;A&rdquo; series, it appears to be a wideopen scramble between three clubs for second spot. Owen Sound Mercurys with Billy Allum coaching and who is expected to get his &ldquo;card&rdquo; any day eo that he can also resume his &ldquo;amateur&rdquo; status as a player, are now in second place with Kitchener-Waterloo Flying Dutchmen in third. Owen Sound have won three of their eight games with two tie affairs tossed in for a total of eight points The Dutchmen have seven points. Stratford Indians, rated by many to have their best senior club in several years, ran into an open switch when twice defeated by the mighty Hamilton Tigers, have five points.</p><h2><b>Draw Well</b></h2><p>Toronto Marboros, after going three straight games without a win, losing on the road to Stratford, Hamilton and Kitchener, moved into their home grounds at Maple Leaf Gardens and came out with a 1-all tie against Owen Sound. The game drew some 2,500 fans for the best senior hockey opening night crowd at the Gardens in some years; an indication that the senior brand may outsmart the experts and wind-up with a fair following of supporters around the &ldquo;House That Smythe Built&rdquo;.</p><p>Hamilton Tigers have Art Childs, the old veteran, back in goal and &ldquo;Wembly&rdquo; appears to be enjoying his &ldquo;second childhood&rdquo; in the art of goal-tending.</p><p>For defense, with Bill Dinning playing for Kitchener, Hamilton Tigers claim Carl Smelle, Polly Miocinovich and Bobby Laurent as the regular tareesome. They have another old time star back in Dougie &ldquo;Specs&rdquo; Fritz. After three seasons with Hamilton, Fritz took the Pacific Soast League treatment last winter.</p><h2><b>Driving Force</b></h2><p>Clarence Shillington, who finished tied with Marlboro&rsquo;s Johnny McCormack for the senior &ldquo;A&rdquo; scoring lead last season, is the real driving force for the Tigers at centre ice on their first line of attack and he receives very capable assistance from Johnny Conick and Tommy Smelle, Carl&rsquo;s brother is another hard working hockey player in the back-checking league.</p><p>Abbie Conick, Johnny&rsquo;s elder brother, along with Frankie Liscombe. Hal Cooper, Murray Comfort, Dillon Brady and Leo Birtwhistle combine to give Tigersn a strong reserve group. Murray Comfort, a real catch for the Tigers, was the top scorer for the rival Hamilton Pats of last season who have disbanded and dropped out of the senior hockey picture for the time being.</p><p>Billy Allum has come up with a strong club for Owen Sound fans. They are in a good goaltending position with Bobby Gill-son and Jimmy McGrattan on hand. Gillson is now playing part of his third season for the Georgians while McGrattan is back home afte several seasons around junior and professional company as part of the Detroit Red Wings&rsquo; system.</p><h2><b>Stars Are Back</b></h2><p>Tommy Burlington and Pat McReavey, last year&rsquo;s front line stars are back again with extra added scoring zip being supplied by Bruno Favero and Buck Forslund, who were rivals with Barrie Flyers and Port Arthur in last spring&rsquo;s Memorial Cup finals.</p><p>&ldquo;Bummer&rdquo; Doran, another old professional, is also with the Owen Sound crew and doing right well by his new mates with the odd impressionable effort on defense</p><p>Stratford Indians have Billy Woodward, formerly of Eddie Shore&rsquo;s Springfield club as coach and number one centre-ice player. From the Stratford juniors come &ldquo;Red&rdquo; Loaders and Duncan Daniels, two very fine prospects. Mickey Roth, from New Hamburg, Billy Flock, the Guelph lad, alon with Goalie Bobby Bindernagel. Johnny Messmer and Joe Nelmes are all Kitchener horn players who travel to Stratford nightly for their senior hockey practices and games.</p><p>From Toronto, Stratford has acquired Billy Walsh on defense and Dougie Mullen, formerly of St. Catherines and De la Salle juniors.</p><p>Gil Robertson is another newcomer from&middot; London, Ont. where he played baseball for the famous London Majors, International Congress champions.</p><h2><b>Are Enthusiastic</b></h2><p>Kitchener - Waterloo&rsquo;s Flying Dutchmen are enthusiastic over the new senior hockey deal. They have &ldquo;Punch&rdquo; Scherer, with Stratford last season as coach, and have come up with a fine young goalie in Pelletier.</p><p>Bill Dinning, formerly of Has milton Tigers, has given the Dutchmen real defensive strength. They also have Jerry Shewchuk, formerly with Boston Bruins and Hershey as addition blue line protection. And there&rsquo;s also &lsquo;Jazz&rsquo; Jackln. Up front Kitchener again presents Don Bauer as their main scoring threat, with Herchenratter, better known as &ldquo;Auggie&rdquo;, Trent Anderson, formerly with Galt Juniors, Bill Hurst, Mike Dzuires Sparkly Weiler, Ted Grasser, Lea Curik and &ldquo;Red&rdquo; Verity going out with the two-way checking game up front.</p><h2><b>Primeau Unhappy</b></h2><p>Joe Primeau is none to satisfied with his Toronto Marlboros, althrough they have changed from their player shortage policy of last season to include many extra reserves this term. Howie Harvey, the Montreal lad, is back in goal with Alex Davidson as the only returned defenseman.</p><p>Newcomers for the blue-line bouncing include Al Barilko, elder brother to Maple Leafs Billy, and Freddy Robertson who played for Galt Juniors last winter. Thea believe it or not, the one and only &ldquo;Flash&rdquo; Hollett, who is making a comeback after his poor season as playing coach for the Kitchener club last season. Other new players with Dukes up front include Chuck Blair from Oshawa Generals, Ray Timgren from Junior Dukes, Bill Johnson from Port Arthur, Scotty Mair, back in amateur ranks after several years of professional rating, Billy Ford and Elwood Small, also two former junior players. From last year&rsquo;s crew, Johnny Me Cormack, Ray Hannigan, Al Buchanan and Johnny McLelland are once again active and picking up points.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

AMERICAN LEAGUE

<div class="byline">By ACE FOLEY</div><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0010-0925/983656-1-eng-US/f0010-092.jpg" title="f0010-09" width="529" height="1270"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>BERT SLEEP</b></figcaption></div><p>HALIFAX, N.S.&mdash;</p><p>After the first two weeks of play in the Maritime senior (Big hour) Hockey league, the champion Moncton Hawks were looking back over their shoulders at the rest of the pack. In their first eight games the Hawks had lost one and tied one, winning the others rather handily. With veteran Les Ramsay retired to the position of bench coach, the Hawks have retained only a few of the brighter stars of last season and have added speed and weight all along the line. Blessed with more practice sessions than any of the other contenders and with experienced players sprinkled through the lineup, the Hawks have certainly gotten off on the right foot; or skate in this particular instance.</p><p>Last time we looked, Dartmouth Arrows and Halifax St. Mary&rsquo;s, replacing Truro Bearcats and Halifax Crescents respectively in the old setup, were deadlocked in second place, three and a half games behind the Hawks and a half game in front of the Saint John Beavers.</p><h2><b>Beavers Improve</b></h2><p>The Beavers are off to a better start than a year ago when they languished In the cellar until the last fortnight of the playing schedule, when they burst forth to finish a bang-up third and then eliminate Truro Bearcats in straight games in the semi-final playoffs. The Beavers don&rsquo;t seem to have the knack of getting away fast. And veteran coach Jackie Keating, who has done wonders with various Saint John teams over the years, has been ailing and his clever hand is missed all along the line.</p><p>Marty Barry, the old Boston Bruins and Deroit Red Wings center ice star, Is handling St. Mary&rsquo;s and is doing pretty well with a young team that shows promise of going places later on In the season. The boys can skate but some of them are woefully inexperienced and this lack of puck savvy shows up in spots. Once they really get going, however, the good reputation built up by the Santamarian juniors over the past four seasons will likely be maintained.</p><h2><b>Kuhn Coaches</b></h2><p>Gordon (Doggie) Kuhn, who pastimed with New York Americans and various minor professional league teams over a long span, is coach of the Dartmouth Arrows. The Arrows started from scratch, were given permission to secure more than the usual number of imported players and are suffering from the fact that they have no rink of their own. In another year or so Dartmouth will have a rink, which will mean smoother sailing for the Arrows. Meanwhile the Arrows play their home games at the Halifax Forum, the same rink used by St. Mary&rsquo;s. This means three league games every week, a heavy schedule for the local pocketbook.</p><p>So far St. Mary&rsquo;s have outdrawn the Arrows by a fairly substantial margin. That&rsquo;s not surprising in view of the fact that the Saints built up a good reputation with their junior teams the last few years whereas the Arrows are starting from scratch. The Harbor Town team Is rugged but definitely not fast.</p><h2><b>Have Brawls</b></h2><p>Play In the first two weeks of the campaign was marred by two brawls between players and referees. In the first instance Roy (Buck) Whitlock, Moncton Hawks&rsquo;scoring champion for the 1947-48 season, jumped out of the penalty box to punch referee Bert Sleep. For this he received a match misconduct penalty and a three-game suspension. The mild sentence did not sit very well with the local fans.</p><p>Slightly more than a week later Dartmouth&rsquo;s Eddie Sorel disputed the ruling on a minor penalty and the argument became so heated that referee Reg Beazley gave him a match misconduct. Whether the league will suspend Sorel remains to be seen, but his crime was definitely not as serious as that of Whitlock&rsquo;s. As a matter of fact referee Sleep was so incensed at the light sentence that he appealed to the Maritime Amateur Hockey Association for a stiffer penalty, and then decided to cast his lot as a referee with the Cape Breton Hockey League, which opened this week with lots of fans fare and predictions from Sydney that their Millionaires would be definite and strong threats for the Allan Cup nept spring.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0010-1212/983649-1-eng-US/f0010-122.jpg" title="f0010-12" width="550" height="751"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>MARTY BARRY</b></figcaption></div><h2><b>Have Junior Team</b></h2><p>Meanwhile St. Mary&rsquo;s are taking their time assembling their junior team. The crack Santamarians of the past three seasons were hard hit by graduations. Center Bert Hirschfield is now playing with Montreal junior Royals; defenseman Douglas (Butter) Duggan is with Washington Lions and Hugh Campbell with the New York Rovers.</p><p>Then forwards Red Conrad and Dougie Burns have moved up to the senior St. Mary&rsquo;s. But the team will be rebuilt around goalie Ernie Yeadon, defenseman Don (Peanuts) McLaughlin and forwards Jackie Hollett and Puddy Reardon, with Jackie Sheehan of Ottawa one of the several newcomers.</p><p>Marty Barry, busily engaged trying to make a formidable contender out of his senior aggregation, hasn&rsquo;t neglected the juniors, and he may bring in a junior team from Montreal for an exhibition series within the next two weeks.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Crossing to the land of the Maple Leaf from Perth, Scotland, when he was but three-year-old, Bill played his first hockey at the age of seven, coming up through the various age groups, Pee Wee, Bantam, Juvenile, Junior and Senior.</p><p>He starred last year with the Minneapolis - Cleveland farm club in the Pacific Coast Hockey league, the San Francisco Shamrocks, chalking up 45 points in the 68 games in which he participated. Asked what he thought of the P.C. H.L. Bill simply stated, &ldquo;It was stronger than I thought it would be and I think the boys and fans alike were pleasantly surprised at the calibre of hockey that was played.&rdquo;</p><p>Incidentally, Les Cunningham, coach of the San Francisco Shamrocks, gave Richardson a fine parting testimonial: &ldquo;Bill is one of those seemingly tireless performers who can be relied upon to give you everything he has got, and in my opinion, he has a lot on the ball and is going places,&rdquo; he said.</p><p>In the off-season, Bill is a swimming pool supervisor in his home town of Camrose, filling the dual role of lifeguard and instructor. He is also a golfer, and his best card was a 79. Hunting and fishing are favorite pastimes with him.</p><p>Bill&rsquo;s hockey career, like many others, was interrupted during the war. He spent two and a half years in the service, enlisting with the Canadian Infantry Corps and upon arrival overseas was transferred to the North Nova Scotia Highlanders.</p><p>Blonde and single, Bill looks forward to a good season with the Millers and it is a foregone conclusion that he will win a host of admirers by his all-around ability, hustle and eagerness to get ahead.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE

<div class="byline">By ERIC BISHOP</div><p>TRAIL. B. C. &mdash;</p><p>Jumpin&rsquo; Joe Benoit, the spokane Flyer mentor, is the only Western International League pilot who&rsquo;s not suffering from a hockey headache. Joe has his club cut and ready for the longest schedule in Kootenay history but the other three coaches have troubles of one kind or another.</p><p>For instance, Ab Cronie, the Trail Smoke Eater boss, had some 46 hopefuls out at the training camp. He managed to whittle the squad to 25 in nothing flat but now his work is just begining. Every member of last year&rsquo;s British Columbia title winning team is out once again, with the exception of Archie Scott, who&rsquo;s with Calgary. Then Don Anderson and Mike Buckna, two proven puck manipulators are on hand as well as five or six sharp looking rookies like Tommy Love and Stan Chmiel, ex-Brandon juniors, Dick Sissons and Kenny Me Intyre, right wingers from Alberta, and Lui Corrado a rollicking rearguard from Rossland.</p><p>With all this talent on hand Cronie has been going slightly nutty trying to figure out what puckters would provide the three best lines. Trail railbirds are thankful the task is Mr. Cronie&rsquo;s and not theirs.</p><h2><b>Only Saw One Drill</b></h2><p>Meanwhile over in Nelson, Fred Hergert, the newly-appointed Maple Leafs playing coach, Is slightly annoyed over the fact he haj only watched the club drill once before sending it into battle.

It Might Be Tough On The Opposition

<div class="byline">By FRED HUBER</div><p>(This is the second of a series of articles on the clubs in the International League.)</p><p>LOUISVILLE, Ky. &mdash;</p><p>Hockey has come to Louisville, Kentucky, a city where artificial ice was something used largely in juleps, this year through the Louisville Blades. The Blades, whose nickname was selected in a public contest, have assembled what looks like the youngest cl. in the International League. The Club ranges from 19-year-old Bud Maclver, a husky de fense man to 25-year-old Johnny Callanon, the gray beard of the team. Coach Bob Kinnea: intends carrying two goalies, alternating them until one or the other proves definitely supefiak, a 180-pounder from Saskatoon, who drew the opening game assignment in Milwaukee Saturday, and 140-pound Phil Charron of Ottawa.</p><h2><b>Three Of The Best</b></h2><p>On defense, in addition to Callanan and Maclver, the club has three rearguards, Keith Tolton, Jim Lemoine, and Len Wharton. Wharton, the team Captain, is the most experienced man on the club, having been with New York the past season. A knee injury has sidelined him during practice, and he is not expected to see regular duty until late November.</p><p>Callanan has a background of experience in the American Hockey League as has Tolton, a con verted left wing. Maclver is rated as one of the best boys of his age in Canada, and should be a good bet.</p><p>Up in front the bulk of the players are French - Canadians, with one, center Rosaire Benoit, totally unable to speak English. He is a clever stickhandler and playmaker, however. With Benoit are Roily Duranceau, a left wing from the New York Rovers, who is the Club&rsquo;s potentially best goalgetter, and right wing Leo Knox, who is looked on favorably by Montreal of the National League.</p><h2><b>From Guy Paree</b></h2><p>The second lire will be centered by husky George Burke, with Herve Parent. a boy who has Played in Paris the past two years on left wing, and Guy Baril, from the Junior team at Three Rivers, Quebec. Parent, an exceptionally shifty skater, has looked outstanding in late workouts prior to the season&rsquo;s opener.</p><p>Fred Evans, Jim Cunningham, and Steve Gaber comprise the third line. Gaber, a peppery five-by-five, was with the Boston Olympics last year.</p><p>All in all it&rsquo;s quite a young club, and certainly will prove a test ot Kinnear&rsquo;s coaching ability. However, they have speed and hustle and aggressiveness which are the primary necessities for youngsters introducing anew game in a new city.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Oha Senior “A” League

<p>BOSTON, Mass. &mdash;</p><p>Boston Bruins have announced the appointment of Eddie Wiseman, former National Hockey League player, as their scout for Western Canada. Wisejnan, who will work out of Red Deer, Alberta, was a star right winger for the New York Americans when he was traded to Boston for Eddie Shore in the 1939-40 season. He played in Boston until his retirement in 1942. The Bruins chief scout is Harold Cotton of Toronto.</p><h2><b><i>Starry Goalie</i></b></h2><p>Big Al Rollins, who played a large part in Edmonton Flyers winning the Allan Cup and Senior Championship of Canada last season, has been the standout goalie of the USHL to date. Al is no flash in the pan. He was a leading amateur goalie for the past seven years and looks as though he was ready for the NHL right now.</p><h2><b><i>First Hat-Trick</i></b></h2><p>First hat-trick of the USHL season was tallied by Billy Warwick, scrappy wing of the Ft. Worth Rangers. Billy&rsquo;s three markers came against the Tulsa Oilers and all were scored in the third period.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Happy Birthday to You

<div class="byline">By DICK ELLIOTT</div><p>PORT ARTHUR, Ont. &mdash;</p><p>In the comparatively short space oi six months, Port Arthur West End Bruins have been transformed from the best junior hockey club in Canada to a stripling team that is long on fight but short on experience. The price of winning a Memorial Cup has been a heavy one for the Bruins. The team that last Spring trounced Barrie Flyers, pride of the East, in four straight names to win Port Arthur its first national junior title, the Bruins today can count only four survivors from that great 1947-48 team.</p><p>Graduations have cut deepest into the championship ranks, and stripping the club still more was the jump to professional ranks of two junior-aged stars.</p><p>Lost through age were defenseman Benny Woit and Pete Durham, both now in pro company, and forwards Bert Fonso, Bob Fero, Fred Baccari and Buck Forslund.</p><p>Still eligible for junior competition and key men in Bruin defensive plans for the new season, leftwinger Dave Creighton and center Rudy Migay were written off when the pair signed pro contracts this fail, Migay with Toronto and Creighton with Boston. Migay is now with Toronto&rsquo;s American League team at Pittsburgh, Creighton with Boston&rsquo;s affiliate in the same loop, Hershey Bears.</p><h2><b>Another Tough Blow</b></h2><p>Professional hockey dealt an additional blow to Bruin ambitions when forward kay Ceesino, also of junior age, signed a Toronto contract and now is with Migay at Pittsburgh.</p><p>While Ceesino was not a member of last year&rsquo;s club, his loss to pro ranks was no less severe than the departure of Migay and Creighton. Recovered from Osh-awa after a year-long executiveroom battle, Ceesino, Port Arthur born and with the Bruins two years ago, was also vital to the Bruins&rsquo; 1948-49 plans.</p><p>Of the remaining Memorial Cuppers conspicuous by their absence, Danny Lewicki has transferred his ice allegiance to Stratford of the OHA junior &ldquo;A&rdquo;. One of three Fort William Columbus players loaned to the Bruins for the playdowns last year, Lewicki was still another plank in the Bruin platform for 1948-49.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0015-0375/984499-1-eng-US/f0015-032.jpg" title="f0015-03" width="586" height="958"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b><i>Still In Nets</i></b></p><p><b>LORNE BENOIT</b></p></figcaption></div><p>The losses now have been pretty well accounted for. What&rsquo;s left? The survivors are: goalie Lorne Chabot, Jr., son of the late and former National League star of the same name; defenseman Norval (Red) Olsen, center Barton Bradley and leftwinger Robbie Wrightsell.</p><p>To fill the gaping holes, the Bruins for the first time in years have reached beyond the environments of the Lakehead. At present count they have recruited two Manitobans, a defenseman from Rainy River, a forward from Kenora along with a handful of Port Arthur juveniles.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0015-0456/984492-1-eng-US/f0015-042.jpg" title="f0015-04" width="580" height="970"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b><i>Surviving Pivot</i></b></p><p>BARTON BRADLEY</p></figcaption></div><p>Most promising among the new Bruins are defenseman Bill Davidson of Souris, Man., and Bill Matthew, Rainy River, and forward Nick Hill from Winnipeg.</p><p>Other newcomers include Dick Elliott, the Kenora forward, along with a group of home-bred rookies, Dave Whalen, Joe Ripku, Bob Southern, brothers Bill and John Kosolowski and Walter Kavalchuk. Of these both Whalen and Ripku were given trial spins with the Bruins during the 1947-48 season.</p><p>There has been a change in the coaching department as well. A veteran campaigner from Fort William, Joe McArthur, member of Port Arthur&rsquo;s 1938-39 Allan Cup championship team, was enlisted following the resignation of last year&rsquo;s mentor, Ed Lauzon.</p><p>The Bruins already have been tested in pre-season competition and, to Lakehead observers at least, did surprisingly well. Competing against Columbus Club, Winiiipeg Canadiens and Montreal Nationale, they swept through regular play undefeated, only to lose rather badly to Montreal in the series&rsquo; sudden death playoff.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Port Arthur Bruins Hit Hard By Pro Puck Raids

<div class="byline">By JIM MacDONALD</div><p>LONDON, Eng. &mdash;</p><p>At the end of two weeks of play in the English Autumn Cup, Streatham are on top. They have won three and tied one without a loss for seven points. Next in line come-Monarchs, Racers and Hounds, all tied for second position with five points. Tigers and Lions have yet to win a game. The hockey so far as been a little spotty but when the clubs round into full playing condition, it&rsquo;s bound to get better.</p><p><b>ODDS AND ENDS</b> &hellip; The Paris hockey season opened recently when a team from London went to the French city to play the Racing Club de Paris &hellip; Not only was it the opening of the season, but Lou Bates, former Wembley Lions player and coach put in an appearance.</p><p>Lou, who&rsquo;s known as England&rsquo;s &ldquo;Mr. Hockey&rdquo;, may be a little slower these days, but he assisted in one of the London goals &hellip; Some of the fans and players think that the ref are calling the penalty rule for delaying the game a little on the strict side.</p><p>In a game between Tigers and Racers at Harr ingay recently, Al Truelove, Tiger defenseman, was tossed off to serve a delaying penalty &hellip; It happened like this: Racers were attacking the Tiger net when Al snapped a brace holding up his pants. He managed to hold his pants up until the puck was cleared. While he was repairing the damage, the ref skated over and waved him off the ice and into the penalty box &hellip; Al&rsquo;s only remark was &ldquo;All I was worrying about was my pants!&rdquo;&hellip;.</p><p>Another example of how touchie the refs are, happened when Henry Hayes was penalized. He had just scored a goal for his team, and was lining up with his mates to face off when he noticed one of his shoe laces had come loose. He bent down to fix it and was promptly waved to the penalty box.</p><p>Scores in recent games were as follows:</p><p>Hounds 5, Racers 3; Streatham 4, Panthers 2; Tigers 3, Monarchs 3 (tie); Panthers 3, Tigers 1. Racers 1, Streatham 1 (tie); Rangers 1, Hounds 6; Racing Club de Paris 9, London 3; Racers 6, Tigers 6 (tie); Streatham 4, Hounds 6; Rangers 5, Streatham.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Of course, money did a certain amo.unt of the talking, too.&rdquo;</p><p>Tony mentions that the old Western Canada pro league of the 20&rsquo;s depended almost entirely on Winnipeg products &hellip; players like Dick Irvin, George Hay, Spunk Moran, Herb Gardiner, Merv Dutton, Joe Simpson, Helge Bos-trom, Cully Wilson, Harry Oliver, Crutchy Morrison, Hal Winkler and others.</p><p>When the Maritimes decided to go into hockey in a big way in the 30&rsquo;s, they raided Winnipeg senior ranks in the building of the Montton Hawks who won the Allan Cup two years in a row.
