A.H.L. Monthly Records

<div class="byline">By LEN BRAMSON</div><p>MONTREAL, Que.&mdash;</p><p>If &ldquo;Gusty&rdquo; Gus Mortson had taken time out to read a report of a game between the Montreal Canadiens and the New York Rangers some years ago, and particularly about an incident between Maurice Richard and one Bob Dill in that game, it is doubtful if he would have tried to mix it with the &ldquo;Rocket&rdquo; last week.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0002-0183/1088279-1-eng-US/f0002-012.jpg" title="f0002-01" width="539" height="555"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Maurice Richard</b></figcaption></div><p>It was back in 1944, when Richard was having his best pro season, then, just as now, everybody was trying to stop him and Dill, known to have a reputation as a prizefighter, thought he was the man. When fight time rolled around Richard threw a wicked right at Dill and he went down in a heap. It took a few minutes to revive him. But Dill was a persistent sort of a guy and when the pair entered the penalty box he decided to try Richard again. This time it took quite a few minutes to revive the once proud pugilist. It wasn&rsquo;t long after that Dill was on his way to the minors. He is probably the only hockey player who was ever k.o.&rsquo;d by the same player twice In one night.</p><p>Richard never gave him a chance to get the best of him.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0002-0273/1088272-1-eng-US/f0002-022.jpg" title="f0002-02" width="260" height="351"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Gus Mortson</b></figcaption><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0002-0368/1088265-1-eng-US/f0002-032.jpg" title="f0002-03" width="266" height="355"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Jim Thomson</b></figcaption></div><p>After Mortson walked Into Richard&rsquo;s wicked right last week, when the Leafs took a 4-2 pasting in Montreal, every body agreed that it was one of the finest and fastest ever thrown on ice. Mortson looked as if he wanted to go back to Northern Ontario and hunt for gold nuggets rather than stay around and take any more from &ldquo;Rockabye&rdquo; Richard.</p><p>It was Jimmy Thomson who started the fracas. The usually peaceful rearguard fell on top of the Rocket and as Richard lay on the ice Mortson Started pummelling him with lefts and rights. This is where the little guy made his big mistake, for Bouchard, seeing his mate in danger dashed in, dropped his gloves and gave Mortson a going over. When they were separated, Richard and Mortson got together and regardless of who said what, Mortson came out with the worst of it. The Rocket let his right fly, Gus had his chin hanging out, and down he went in a heap, just like Dill. To top it off Mortson, like a badly beaten fighter who didn&rsquo;t know enough to stay on the canvas, got up and started to mix it with Bouchard again. Big Butch&rsquo;s motions in the dressing room after the game were enough to make you realize that little &ldquo;Gusty&rdquo; took another beating in the third round.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0002-0451/1088258-1-eng-US/f0002-042.jpg" title="f0002-04" width="582" height="545"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Ken Reardon</b></figcaption></div><p>Thomson ended up the night with a shiner and Mortson was helped off the ice by linesman Sammy Babcock.</p><p>In the dressing room after the game Andy O&rsquo;Brien asked Richard why he didn&rsquo;t lead with his left.</p><p>&ldquo;Why should I let him have the easy one first,&rdquo; replied the Rocket.</p><p>Kenny Reardon also paid an old debt that night.</p><p>One night a few years ago, against the Rangers, Reardon was clipped for 17 stitches and a few teeth, as well as getting into a fracas with a fan. There was just a few seconds left to go when the brawl started but Reardon wasn&rsquo;t around to see it, he was in the clinic getting his mouth back in shape. For three years Kenny was under the impression that he was hit by Bryan Hextall. However when Hal Laycoe was traded to Montreal he let Kenny in on the big secret.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0002-0539/1088251-1-eng-US/f0002-052.jpg" title="f0002-05" width="274" height="347"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Cal Gardner</b></figcaption></div><p>&ldquo;It was Cal Gardner who hit you,&rdquo; said Hal. &ldquo;The Rangers have been having quite a joke about it for three years.&rdquo;</p><p>But Reardon doesn&rsquo;t forget easily, Last year he tangled with Gardner in Toronto and ended up with a $200 fine, Cal was fined $250 for his part in the do.</p><p>&ldquo;It was worth it,&rdquo; said Kenny, &ldquo;as long as it cost him $50 more than me.&rdquo;</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0002-0627/1088244-1-eng-US/f0002-062.jpg" title="f0002-06" width="348" height="347"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Elmer Lach</b></figcaption></div><p>This time Ken clashed with Cal and Gardner had a hard time closing his mouth for a while. His jaw was broken in two places. Gardner&rsquo;s plight brought tears to Elmer Lack&rsquo;s eyes, for Elmer knows what it&rsquo;s like to take your meals through a straw, and a brash comment from Reardon.</p><p>&ldquo;So his jaw is broken in two places,&rdquo; said Kenny, &ldquo;I feel very sorry, it couldn&rsquo;t have happened to a nicer guy.&rdquo;</p><p>From another corner of the room came the comment: &ldquo;I hope it&rsquo;s nothing trivial.&rdquo;</p><p>All in all it looks like the feud of the Montrealers and Leafs is now officially under way.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Richard Rocks Gussy To Sleep With Right

<p>ST. LOUIS, Mo.&mdash;</p><p>Centre Cliff Simpson, leading scorer for St. Louis Flyers of the American Hockey League, didn&rsquo;t know it at the time, but he played in four games with a broken leg.</p><p>And during that time he scored two goals and was credited with an assist.</p><p>He was injured Oct. 27 in a game at New Haven, Conn., and thought he had sprained an ankle. He couldn&rsquo;t understand why the ankle continued to pain him when he removed tape from it after each game.</p><p>An X-ray examination after Simpson returned to St. Louis recently cleared up the mystery. He has a bone fracture two inches above the ankle.</p><p>Dr. Robert F. Hyland put the leg in a cast, and Simpson is on crutches. He probably will be out of action for three or four weeks.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0007-0470/1088663-1-eng-US/f0007-042.jpg" title="f0007-04" width="270" height="429"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Cliff Simpson</b></figcaption></div><span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span>

Detroit Red Wings in the N.H.L., Cleveland Barons and Providence Reds in the A.H.L. and Minneapolis Millers in the U.S.H.L. are pacing their leagues and look very much, as if they will continue to do so right until the final barrier is reached.</p><p>Jack Adams well-balanced Motor City squad have not lost a game in their last five starts. They&rsquo;ve racked up four wins and a draw in that time to retain their hold on first place in the National League with 18 points. Montreal Canadiens, who have played one more game than the Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs, are in second place with 16 points, while the three-in-a-row Stanley Cup Champion Toronto Leafs are in the show position with 15 points.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/cover-0413/1089865-1-eng-US/cover-042.jpg" title="Cover-04" width="248" height="402"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Jim Hendy</b></figcaption></div><p>Jim Hendy seems to have come up with the right recipe at Cleveland. The Barons have only dropped two games in 14 and boast a point total of 23 and a six-point edge over St. Louis Flyers for top spot in the. Western Division of the American League. Coach Bun Cook has the Clevelanders playing the best hockey in the A.H.L. The Calder Cup winners, Providence Reds, are picking up this season where they left off last spring. Terry Reardon&rsquo;s spirited band of hockeyists are in first place in the Eastern Division of the A.H.L. with 18 points. However, the race is closer in the eastern sector of the Podoloff loop, and New Haven and Buffalo are deadlocked for the runner-up spot with 17 points.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/cover-055/1089858-1-eng-US/cover-052.jpg" title="Cover-05" width="273" height="427"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Bill Cook</b></figcaption></div><p>Bill Cook&rsquo;s Minneapolis Millers are heading the United States League with 13 points and appear to be gaining in strength as the season progresses. St. Paul Saints, last year&rsquo;s champs, are a point back of the Millers.</p><p>It&rsquo;s a funny thing but usually at this time of the year the favorites and teams with the power are wallowing in or near the cellar, and some darkhorse aggregation is setting the pace. This season it seems to be different as the clubs that were earmarked for the top are living up to those predictions and making them come true.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Wings Get Joe; MacKay Has Chance With Punch Liners

<div class="byline">By CARL GROTHMANN</div><div class="image-hero"><img title="f0002-07" src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0002-0717/1088310-1-eng-US/f0002-072.jpg"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Not So Meek and Mild!</b></figcaption></div><p>NEW YORK, N Y.&mdash;</p><p>A scrappy little youngster who stands only five-feet-seven in his stocking feet is making an early bid for one of the few National League titles never held by a member of the New York Rangers. He is Duncan Fisher, the sturdy right wing of the Blue Shirts who, at this writing, leads the N.H.L. in penalties. The title he may capture, although he&rsquo;s not looking for it, is the individual penalty leadership of the league.</p><p>Over the years the Blue Shirts have won just about every team and individual record on the N.H.L. books. They have been league champs and Stanley Cup champs. Individuals have captured the scoring leadership, have been top goal and assists getters, and have won the Hart, Vezina, Lady Byng and Calder Memorial trophies. All these honors, at one time or another, have gone to the Rangers, individually or collectively, but never, in 24 years of NHL competition, has a Blue Shirt led the league in penalties.</p><h2><b>Not Even Ching!</b></h2><p>Even the great Ching Johnson, who took great delight in rocking opponents back in the late twenties and middle thirties, was never a league leader. Ching topped the Blues in this department in five seasons but even in 1927-28, when Johnson spent 146 minutes in the box he was 20 minutes shy of the leadership. Eddie Shore led that year with 166 penalty minutes.</p><p>Dune looks upon the penalty leadership as a dubious distinction; something he wants no part of. But it&rsquo;s an honor that may be thrust upon him. He says &ldquo;I only give what I get. If the other guys dish it out they can expect to get it right back.&rdquo;</p><p>If early games indicate the future pattern of his career he will be getting and giving plenty this season. There&rsquo;s something about both his stature and his nature that makes him a target for the bad men of the circuit. A little guy, he stands low on the ice and when he goes to the boards with a rival to battle for a loose puck he absorbs a lot of elbows. Naturally he gives them back, even though he has to reach. By nature he&rsquo;s an aggressive lad who is confident he&rsquo;s the equal of the biggest man in the league. And he may be right for he hasn&rsquo;t lost a decision yet.</p><p>It is these factors, his size and his battling tactics, that make him a leader in penalties. He&rsquo;s not afraid of skirmishes and when he gets involved in one he&rsquo;ll tackle even the biggest without asking any quarter. Needless to say, he gives none.</p><h2><b>He&rsquo;s Rugged</b></h2><p>Although he&rsquo;s short, he packs 170 pounds on his rugged frame and he keeps himself in top condition. In addition he has an advantage in stamina that comes only with youth. He&rsquo;s just 22 years old, younger than most rookies who come up. Dune, despite his youth, is a well-seasoned sophomore.</p><p>Fisher comes by his war-like tactics naturally. He is of Scottish descent and from his ancestors he early acquired his determination to defend his rights against bigger foes. And if doubters need proof that Dune still cherishes the fighting glory of the Scots they need only hear him when he gives his bagpipes a workout.</p><p>Dune was born in Regina, Sask., where he first learned to play the ice sport. When he started up the pro ladder he moved fast. From the Regina Junior Pats he moved directly to the New Haven Ramblers of the AHL for the 1947-48 campaign. That season he was the Ramblers third high scorer.</p><p>In one of his first games in a Ranger uniform Dune went into a scuffle against the boards with an old veteran. Fisher was quick to return all the rough stuff handed him and when the old timer skated away he told Dune &ldquo;Wise up rookie, you&rsquo;ve got a lot to learn.&rdquo; Maybe he had a lot to learn but he already knew all there was to know about the circuit. The veterans treated him with the respect usually reserved for more seasoned campaigners.</p><p>Last year he languished in the penalty coop for 40 minutes, a longer than average confinement for forwards. This year, after only nine games, he has already done 24 minutes in time. Of the &ldquo;new, rough Rangers,&rdquo; he is one of the roughest. Dune typifies the spirit of the 1949-50 Blues who have rebelled against the tag &ldquo;NHL Softies. The Rangers are no longer the league doormat and one of the reason for the change is Dune Fisher, the scrappy Scot.</p><h2><b>The Hockey News</b></h2><p>Published Weekly, except monthly May through September, by HOCKEY NEWS COMPANY, 603A Sun Life Bldg., Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Little Dune Making His Bid For Bad-Man Honors

<div class="byline">By LEN BRAMSON</div><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0003-0266/1088362-1-eng-US/f0003-022.jpg" title="f0003-02" width="282" height="446"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Ken Reardon</b></figcaption></div><p>MONTREAL, Que.&mdash;</p><p>One night last spring the Montreal Junior Royals, after having won the Memorial Cup, were being tendered a dinner at the Windsor Hotel. Each player was called to the head table in turn to be presented with a gift. As Tommy Manastersky moved along in front of the long table Tommy Gorman, boss of the Ottawa Senators, last seasons&rsquo; Allan Cup champs, leaned over to a gentleman sitting beside him and whispered, &lsquo;there&rsquo;s a darn good hockey player.&rsquo;</p><p>When Gorman says a thing like that about a player it means only one thing. He&rsquo;d like to have him playing for his club. However it&rsquo;s not likely that Gorman ever will have likeable Tommy on his club for Frank Selke and Dick Irvin also have plans for the big boy.</p><p>But regardless of what those plans are Timmothy, better known as Tommy, has a problem. Whether to continue as a professional footballer and forget all about hockey or leave the pigskin and gridiron and turn his 185 pound frame to the ice lanes.</p><h2><b>He&rsquo;ll Make Decision</b></h2><p>&ldquo;It&rsquo;s a hard decision to make,&rdquo; says Tommy, &ldquo;but it&rsquo;s one I&rsquo;ll have to make on my own. I&rsquo;m old enough to make my own decisions now.&rdquo;</p><p>Just how his future looks as a professional pigskinner can&rsquo;t be told, however as a hockey player Dick Irvin, coach of Les Canadiens has a high hopes for the huge and rugged defenseman.</p><p>&ldquo;I put that kid in a class with Reardon,&rdquo; Irvin once told this writer. &ldquo;He has color and guts and he won&rsquo;t back away from anybody. Pro hockey is a lot tougher than junior but I saw that kid play Brandon and he had everyone of those Wheat Kings afraid of him. He&rsquo;d be exactly the same in pro hockey. Maybe he wouldn&rsquo;t have everybody afraid of him but they&rsquo;d have to keep their heads up while he was on the ice. He&rsquo;ll play for us sooner than you think.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0003-0183/1088369-1-eng-US/f0003-012.jpg" title="f0003-01" width="234" height="373"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Dick Irvin</b></figcaption></div><p>&ldquo;If he plays the same kind of hockey as he did out west, I may even use him this year.&rdquo;</p><p>Dick also reminded your reporter than the Brandon Wheat Kings were as big as any professional team he&rsquo;d ever seen.</p><p>Tommy is as rugged a defenseman as you&rsquo;ll ever come across. In fact he&rsquo;s so rugged that the Quebec Amateur Hockey Association have had to discipline him three or fours times for his rough tactics. He was always being suspended periodically as a junior, for bashing somebody to a pulp.</p><p>Manastersky first started to get rough with his opposition when he turned out with the Montreal Junior Royals. &ldquo;I was only 16,&rdquo; Tommy said, &ldquo;and in my first game some guy hit me in the face with a butt end go I clipped him back. From then on I found that I was being pushed around so I decided that I&rsquo;d better get rugged. I did, and they didn&rsquo;t push me around any more.&rdquo;</p><p>Tommy admits that he prefers football to hockey but he also realizes that there is more money playing hockey than there is as a footballer.</p><p>&ldquo;After all a fellow has to live,&rdquo; he says, &ldquo;and in football the imports make all the money. But I think if I stick with the Alouettes I can get a good contract next season.&rdquo;</p><h2><b>Making History</b></h2><p>Right now Manastersky is in the middle of making history. His football team, the Montreal Alouettes, are well on the road to winning the Grey Cup, symbolic of Canadian football supremacy. He would be the first player in history to play on a Memorial Cup team and Grey Cup Club in the same season.</p><p>As a hockey player. Tommy is destined for big things. He can hit as hard as Reardon and can carry the puck as well as many defenseman in the pro loops. &ldquo;That kid has plenty of muscles and if you don&rsquo;t think he&rsquo;s Kenny Reardon commented one day.</p><p>Manastersky, started his hockey career as a forward but three years ago, when the Late Tag Millar took over the team, he decided to move Tommy back to the blueline. Nobody has ever regreted it, except maybe his opposition.</p><p>Born on March, 7 1925, he was christened Timmothy Manaster sky. &ldquo;I could never find out why I was called Tommy,&rdquo; he laughted. &ldquo;Even my Mother calls me Tommy.&rdquo;</p><p>As a youngster, he hung around the University Settlement Club in the East End of Montreal. He was never a rough or rugged boy, but he wanted to be a good athlete.</p><p>&ldquo;It&rsquo;s a poor neighborhood,&rdquo; says Tom,&rdquo; but they sure have turned out some good athletes.&rdquo;</p><p>He played midget and bantam hockey around the Settlement and then entered Montreal High School. He&rsquo;d never played football until then but he made the junior B squad and was soon a star. One day he was brought up to play a game on the A team and from then on he was destined for gridiron glory.</p><p>&ldquo;I was kinda small at the time,&rdquo; he will tell you, &ldquo;and didn&rsquo;t play very much. However the next season (44-45) I played regularly and won the Colonial Airlines Trophy.&rdquo;</p><p>He was playing hockey for the school team as well, but was a better footballer. As a midget and juvenile he practiced with the Montreal Junior Royals. On that team were Doug Harvey and Eddie Cutts as well as many more well known hockey players.</p><p>Then one day he was asked to turn out for the Royals and his hockey career started. He was with the Royals for four season and he climaxed the stint as a star on the club last season. They came home with the Memorial Cup.</p><p>Last season Tommy nearly hung up his skates and moved to the United States.</p><h2><b>Likes American Colleges</b></h2><p>&ldquo;I always wanted to try an American College,&rdquo; said Tommy, &ldquo;so last year I decided to enroll at Holy Cross. I was there for a month, made the freshman football team and played one game against Boston College. I liked it, but got a bit homesick so I came back to Montreal. I guess I&rsquo;ve always wanted to go to McGill, maybe that&rsquo;s why I was homesick at Holy Cross.</p><p>Although Tommy has always been a leader in football and hockey he also excelled at swimming and boxing in school. He won three championships in the ring at Montreal High, but, he will modestly tell you, he doesn&rsquo;t think he has much class as a pugilist.</p><h2><b>They Helped Him</b></h2><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0003-0426/1088355-1-eng-US/f0003-042.jpg" title="f0003-04" width="534" height="823"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>DOUG HARVEY</b></figcaption><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0003-0517/1088348-1-eng-US/f0003-052.jpg" title="f0003-05" width="505" height="810"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>EDDIE CUTTS</b></figcaption></div><p>In the water, he won school championships as a diver and was breast stroke champ. He was also a terrific Water Polo player.</p><p>We asked Tommy it he would like to play for the Montreal Canadiens some day.</p><p>&ldquo;Sure I would,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;It I though I could make it. It may be a decision I&rsquo;ll have to make someday, either give up football or hockey.&rdquo;</p><p>When Tommy was 16 his Father died and his Mother moved to Drummondville, Quebec, to live with her 13 year old daughter. Tommy has been on his own ever since.</p><h2><b>Knows What He Wants</b></h2><p>He knows what he wants but he also wants to know all the angles before committing himself. He&rsquo;d like to play professional hockey but he hates the thought of giving up the gridiron.</p><p>At 20 years old, Tommy is an quiet unassuming young fellow, whom you can&rsquo;t help but like. He&rsquo;s firm in his ideas and doesn&rsquo;t pattern his life after any particular sportsmen.</p><p>&ldquo;I haven&rsquo;t seen a professional hockey game in the three years,&rdquo; says Tommy, and I just know Dick Irvin well enough to say hello to him. There&rsquo;s a lot of players I wouldn&rsquo;t even recognize if I bumped into them on the street.&rdquo;</p><p>Standing five feet ten and weighing 185 pounds, Tommy is a star backfielder for the Montreal Alouettes. A terrific ball carrier, he is also rated one of the fastest players in the country. On the gridiron he&rsquo;s as tough as he is on ice.</p><p>&ldquo;The only difference,&rdquo; says Tommy, &ldquo;is that if you have a bad temper in football is doesn&rsquo;t show and isn&rsquo;t as obvious as it is in hockey. Football is a lot rougher than hockey but you have more time to think.&rdquo;</p><p>During the off season Tommy works at Eatons, in the sports goods department. He lives at the Fraternity House in Montreal and is just waiting for the day when he can enter McGill.</p><p>He&rsquo;d like to get into public relations some day.</p><p>Just remember the name Manastersky. You&rsquo;ll hear about him.</p><div class="figure-block image-bleed"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0003-0341/1088341-1-eng-US/f0003-032.jpg" title="f0003-03" width="1739" height="1478"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b>Which One Will He Choose?</b></p><p><b>TOMMY MANASTERSKY is as well known in Montreal as Toots Shor is in New York.

Passing the Puck

<div class="byline">By KEN McKENZIE</div><p>MONTREAL, Que.&mdash;</p><p>Close to half&mdash;45 to be exact&mdash;of the 109 players currently campaigning in the National Hockey League first saw the light of day in one of Canada&rsquo;s three Prairie Provinces. Saskatchewan is the most prolific of the three midwest provinces with 26 native sons performing in the National League. Manitoba is next with 18 and Alberta is third with three.</p><p>The province of Ontario tops all others in giving birth to N.H.L. stars, as no less than 44 of the players in the National loop today were sired in Ontario. However, Ontario should have the largest representation as it is Canada&rsquo;s biggest province and has a far greater population than any of the three Prairie Provinces. Quebec is the birth place of 13 National Leaguers.</p><h2><b>No Maritimers</b></h2><p>There isn&rsquo;t one single player in the National League today who was born in the Maritime provinces of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island, and not at player was born in the Pacific Coast province of British Columbia. Canada is the birthplace of 102 of the 109 players in the N.H.L .. and the 102 players were all born in one of the five Canadian provinces of Ontario, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec or Alberta.</p><p>Three of the seven players not born in Canada were born in the United States, two were born in Scotland, one in Ireland and one in Finland.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0004-1028/1088487-1-eng-US/f0004-102.jpg" title="f0004-10" width="587" height="607"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b>Dysart Grad</b></p><p><b>FERN FLAMAN</b></p></figcaption></div><h2><b>Winnipeg Big Producer</b></h2><p>Winnipeg, Manitoba, fourth largest city in Canada, is once again the most productive hockey incubator in the world. Thirteen of the 108 players cavorting about the National Hockey League this season were born in Winnipeg. This is almost twice as many as the next most productive city, which is Toronto. Toronto, home of the Stanley Cup champion Maple Leafs, was the birthplace of eight National League players, but only one of the eight is on the roster of the Maple Leafs. Half of Toronto&rsquo;s eight contributions to the N.H.L. are on the Boston Bruins.</p><h2><b>Montreal Has Six</b></h2><p>Montreal, largest city in Canada, is the birthplace of six National Leaguers. Fort William, Ontario which is increasing every year as a producer of hockey talent has sent five players to the National Hockey League. Saskatoon, Sask. was the starting place of four of today&rsquo;s N.H.L. players. Three of these Saskatoon players are on the Toronto roster.</p><p>Ottawa, Ontario, once one of the most fertile hockey developing fields anywhere, has dropped off until today only two N.H.L. players call it their home-town. The tiny town of Dysart, Sask. has sent two defensemen to the N.H.L., in the persons of Fern Flaman of Boston and Gus Kyle of New York Rangers.</p><p>Three players in the N.H.L. today were born in Regina, Sask., while a similar number made their entrance into the world at Kitchener, Ontario.</p><h2><b>Quiet Boy</b></h2><p>Not all the over-enthused Louisville fans are in the stands. When a penalized visitor emphatically slapped the boards with his stick following a decision the other night, a city policeman tapped him on the shoulder and advised, &ldquo;Now you be quiet or I&rsquo;ll just take you on down to jail!&rdquo;<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

It&rsquo;s just that he&rsquo;s such a peppy 48-year-old individual who goes along on the theory that &ldquo;you&rsquo;re only as old as you feel&rdquo; and has such a sprightly approach to life that no one has even thought that he might be getting ready for a Mr. Chips role.</p><h2><b>HAP IS STARTLED</b></h2><p>Least of all Mr. Day. The news kind of startled him.</p><p>&ldquo;Twenty five years!&rdquo; he echoed, voice incredulous. &ldquo;I can&rsquo;t believe It&rdquo;. Pause. &ldquo;Well, I don&rsquo;t feel that old.&rdquo;</p><p>Whether hockey&rsquo;s most successful coach feels old or not after 25 years in the ice sport is neither here nor there. The fact remains that this is his 25th year in the Big Time.</p><p>Diligent delvers into musty record books have come up with the info that Mr. Day, a rosy-cheeked university graduate in pharmacy, broke into the N.H.L. on Saturday night, Nov. 13, 1924, playing for the Toronto St. Patrick&rsquo;s (forerunners of the Maple Leafs) against the rugged old Montreal Maroons.</p><p>Though he was later to become one of the all-time star defensemen of pro hockey, young Mr. Day began his N.H.L, career as a left winger played at that spot through his first season, not switching back to the rearguard division until midway of the following season.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0005-0288/1088525-1-eng-US/f0005-022.jpg" title="f0005-02" width="541" height="866"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b><i>Day&rsquo;s Night</i></b></p><p><b>Hap Day</b></p></figcaption></div><h2><b>HAD AMATEURS THEN!</b></h2><p>Pro hockey back in those days lacked the popular public support it enjoys today. The amateurs were the big guns of Canadian hockey and the pros had a hard time keeping the finance wolves away from the door.</p><p>It isn&rsquo;t difficult to understand, then, why Hap Day wasn&rsquo;t too keenly interested in pro hockey as a livelihood. He had his pharmacy degree and was ready to go into business. He was all for giving a very firm negative answer to the fancy (in those days) offer from Charlie Querrie, boss of the St. Pat&rsquo;s.</p><p>Strangely, it was Conn Smythe, who was more interested at that time in sand and gravel than hockey, who persuaded Hap to turn pro. Smythe had the foresight to envision great success for pro hockey. Little more than two years later Smythe and a group of young Toronto sportsmen had invaded the pro hockey field. They bought the St. Pat&rsquo;s franchise, changed the name to Maple Leafs. Thus began the saga of the Maple Leafs and the remarkable partnership of Smythe and Day, who, in Hap&rsquo;s 25 years as a Big Timer, have been together almost two decades.</p><h2><b>LOOKING AT HIS RECORD</b></h2><p>Here&rsquo;s the way Hap&rsquo;s 25-year record in the N.H.L. breaks down:</p><p>Fourteen years as a player.</p><p>Two years as an N.H.L. referee.</p><p>Nine years as a coach.</p><p>You might suspect, then, that Mr. Day must be something of an Encyclopedia Hockeana. He is.</p><p>He embarrasses the players because he knows all the tricks of the trade and they can&rsquo;t slip anything over on him. He embarrasses referees because he knows the rule book inside out and probably could quote you any rule&mdash;even Clause C of it&mdash;verbatim. (He once sent King Clancy a rule book with the note: &lsquo;This is a rule book. Read it.) From a coaching standpoint, he embarrasses his rivals by continuing to produce contending and championship teams, good material or not.</p><p>He was a top star as a player and perennial captain of the Maple Leafs (as well as chief prankster) through the halcyon days when Conacher, Primeau, Jackson, of Kid Line fame, and the rest of those colorful players of that era were in their heyday. He was the No. 1 N.H.L. official after his two-year fling and then gave it up to take over as coach of the Toronto team, starting with the 1940-41 season.</p><h2><b>HIS PET TRICK</b></h2><p>His rivals used to call Hap &ldquo;The Great Clutch&rdquo; when he was a defense star. Small wonder. Just listen to this:</p><p>&ldquo;I had a pet trick of twisting my stick around a forward&rsquo;s body, then leaning around his back and grabbing his stick with my free hand,&rdquo; Hap recalls. &ldquo;However, I could never fool Bill Cook of the Rangers, and one night he really embarrassed me. I grabbed his stick this night. He tugged a couple of times but I wouldn&rsquo;t let go. So he merely skated away, leaving me with two sticks in my hand. That was one time I was caught with the goods and away I went to the penalty box.&rdquo;</p><h2><b>Day&rsquo;s Night</b></h2><p>As a player, Hap was on only one Stanley Cup winning team&mdash;the Maple Leafs of 1931-32. But as a coach, his Lucky Star began its ascendency. In nine years as bench boss of the Leafs, he has produced five Stanley Cup championship teams and proved himself a skilful strategist. His Leafs have been world champions for the past three years, the first time such a feat has been accomplished in the history of the N.H.L.</p><p>Hap, who neither smokes nor drinks and moves at an incredible pace at all times, isn&rsquo;t the kind of fellow who dwells on the past but here are some of the things he would tabulate as big moments in his career:</p><h2><b>HAD SHARE OF INJURIES</b></h2><p>1929 &mdash; His Achilles tendon was completely severed by a skate slash, the worst mishap of his playing career. &ldquo;I thought that was the end of my careerr,&rdquo; Hap says.</p><p>1932 &mdash; Stanley Cup victory for the Leafs. &ldquo;That was my greatest lift as a player because that was my eighth season in the NHL and I was beginning to think I would never play for a Stanley Cup Winner.&rdquo;</p><p>1941 &mdash; Biggest disappointment as a coach. &ldquo;We had a great team that year and when we didn&rsquo;t win the cup, I thought I was doomed as a coach.&rdquo;</p><p>1942 &mdash; The year the Leafs lost the first three games of the finals to Detroit, then came back to take four in a row and the Stanley Cup. &ldquo;That was a tremendous thrill,&rdquo; Hap says. &ldquo;No team had ever done that before, and besides, it was my first cup win as a coach.&rdquo;</p><p>1945 &mdash; Another cup win for the Leafs. &ldquo;We finished up using 11 players,&rdquo; Hap recalls, &ldquo;and the final that year was almost a repeat in reverse of our 1942 battle with Detroit. We won the first three games, then lost the next three. But I got a great kick when we went right into Detroit and won the deciding game. The sportswriters in Toronto had given up on us. Most of our own club officials had too.&rdquo;</p><p>1946 &mdash; A sad year. The Leafs, finishing a gloomy fifth, missed the playoffs for the first time in 16 years.</p><p>1947 &mdash; Beginning of the three year Stanley Cup reign of the Leafs. &ldquo;That was a great year,&rdquo; says Hap. &ldquo;We had to rebuild almost completely and we had seven rookies in our lineup.&rdquo;</p><p>1947 &mdash; Probably the greatest team in Leaf history. Topped N.H.L. and breezed to second straight cup victory.</p><p>1949 &mdash; Champs again, first team to win three successive Stanley Cups. &ldquo;That,&rdquo; says Hap, expressively, &ldquo;was a tough year. We missed Apps, Nick Metz and Stanowski and it wasn&rsquo;t until late in the season that we started to click. But for a long time I had my doubts about even getting into the playoffs.&rdquo;</p><p>1950 &mdash; ? ? ? ? ? Who knows? Hap wouldn&rsquo;t talk on this year&rsquo;s possibilities. But, seeing as this is his Silver Jubilee, another Stanley Cup would be an appropriate present for the Leafs to collect for him.</p><p>We think Mr. Day would be willing to go along on that suggestion.</p><div class="figure-block image-bleed"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0005-0369/1088518-1-eng-US/f0005-032.jpg" title="f0005-03" width="1712" height="1073"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b>THE BIG STEP</b></p><p><b>WHITE TIE AND TAILS was the order of the day when Happy was married.

Day Celebrates 25th Army In NHL

<h2><b>HOME ISN&rsquo;T SO SWEET</b></h2><p class="dropcap"><span>T</span>here was a time when playing on home ice virtually assured the home team of a victory&mdash;or at the very worst, a tie. But times have changed, in the National Hockey League at any rate, until friendly territory has come to mean no better than a 50-50 chance of producing a winning effort before hometown fans.</p><p>That at least is the picture at present in hockey&rsquo;s big wheel. Up to November 14, after the week-end games, home clubs had managed to turn back the visiting opposition in only 14 out of the 39 games played around the circuit. The visitors held a slight edge with 15 successful forays into the enemy&rsquo;s home grounds, while 10 games ended as no-decision affairs, or ties.</p><p>Actually, the reasons aren&rsquo;t too hard to find after slight scrutiny. Because, outside of the hard-to-define psychological advantage the home team enjoys from the cheers and support of its own fans, there&rsquo;s little to be gained from the mere fact of playing on their own ice.</p><p>The uniformity of N.H.L. rinks and ice surfaces has ruled out the small margin in their favor which the host clubs formerly enjoyed. In days past, ice surfaces used to vary in size and shape from one arena to another, and even the ice was different, both in color and hardness.</p><p>Now, however, all six N.H.L. rinks have little to set them apart in the matter of size&mdash;a few feet here and there in overall length or width in different cities &mdash; and their shapes are virtually similar.</p><p>Gone, too, are the days when some rinks had milky ice surfaces and others had crystal-clear or cold blue sheets of ice. A new rule passed at the N.H.L. meetings last summer provides that all ice surfaces must be a uniform white in color, with a coat of white paint laid beneath the final layer of ice. This provides uniform visibility for the black puck, and makes the ice as standard as is humanly possible.</p><p>And finally, there&rsquo;s the all-important fact that the linesmen for all N.H.L. games in most cases now come from neutral cities. Previously, when these officials were supplied by the home clubs, there was always the possibility they would be swayed, sub-consciously, to favor the home club. Even though they honestly tried to be impartial, it&rsquo;s tough to keep an even keel when the home fans are howling blue murder from the sidelines. A neutral linesman can afford to call them exactly as he sees them, though, because he doesn&rsquo;t have to live there after an unpopular decision!</p><p>Before neutral linesmen were specified, there used to be an old saying &mdash; believed especially by visiting teams!&mdash;that &ldquo;a hometown linesman means a goal for the home team right away&rdquo;.</p><p>But, judging from the record, the homesters aren&rsquo;t getting any help from the men in white. In fact, when some teams come to town, its almost a sure loss for the genial hosts! Detroit has the best record in this respect to date, winning four and deadlocking one in their five road games. Toronto has won four and lost two away from home, while Montreal took three decisions, tied three more and lost only one in their seven visiting engagements</p><p>Going farther down the scale, Chicago had two road victories to their credit up to last Monday, while losing three and tieing two in seven starts. The tail-end clubs, Boston and New York, have the worst records in foreign rinks. The Bruins have managed to collect only one victory and one tie in seven efforts, while the Rangers also took one decision and battled to three draws while dropping three in their seven attempts.</p><p>In other words, the way things have been going to date, home ice has had little advantage, except where two strong, evenly-matched teams tangle. Normally, it depends on the teams themselves.</p><h2><b>WHAT&rsquo;S YOUR VERDICT?</b></h2><p>As an experiment, this week we have eliminated the feature: &ldquo;What the Fans Say&rdquo; which has appeared on Page Two the past few issues. We&rsquo;d like to have an expression of opinion from you readers on whether you would like to see the feature restored, or not.</p><p>The editors of THE HOCKEY NEWS aim to give the fans the most readable paper possible, packed with the most stories, features and pictures we are able to give you. For that reason, your publication was enlarged to 20 pages this season, but even with that we find it difficult at times to get in all the summaries, features and other items you look forward to each week.</p><p>So, if a feature like the one mentioned isn&rsquo;t popular with a majority of our readers, we&rsquo;ll give you something else. Let&rsquo;s hear from you, anyway&mdash;for or against&mdash;and if you have any other suggestions or beefs, we&rsquo;ll be glad to have them too!<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Roberts</p><p>Vancouver, B.C.</p><p><b>(Lionel Conacher was known as &ldquo;The Big Train&rdquo;. The line of Cooney Wetland, Dit Clapper and Dutch Gainor was called &ldquo;The Dynamite Trio.&rdquo; They played for the Boston Bruins in the 30s.)</b></p><h2><b>VEZINA QUIZZ</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>Could you please tell me if the Vezina Trophy is an individual award, or a team award? Also, if a goal is scored after the goaler has been removed from the net in favour of an extra forward, in an effort to tie the game in the last few seconds, is that goal charged against the goaler who has been removed?</p><p>R. L.</p><p>Toronto, Ont.</p><p><b>(No, the Vezina Trophy is solely a goaler award. The goal scored against the team minus the goaler counts against the netminder.)</b></p><h2><b>WANTS ACTION</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>The action of Canadiens&rsquo; players, Reardon, Reay and Gravelle on November 2, 1949, in Chicago, calls for strict disciplinary measures. Reardon&rsquo;s unprovoked attack on fan, George Girbiclj, started the fracus, and he was joined by Billy Reay and Leo Gravelle. The once proud Canadiens really took a nose dive when Leo Gravelle, with a stick in his hands, tried to play hero by striking three more unwarned spectators.</p><p>If hockey is to continue as the world&rsquo;s greatest game, something must be done about individuals like Reardon. It was unfortunate that Reay lost his temper and hacked wildly at the fans, because Bill was always well liked in Chicago for both his playing ability and good sportsman-like attitude.</p><p>Pat Shannon</p><p>Chicago, 111.</p><p><b>(We suggest you read fan Mailloux&rsquo;s letter in the Fan Forum last week. There are two sides to every story.)</b></p><h2><b>BETTING FAVOURITES</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>If a certain winner in any sport is the favorite five to two, how do the experts go about getting the odds?</p><p>In the 1948-49 season game 172, March 15, Boston 4 at New York 2, who scored the goals for Boston?</p><p>Will you please tell me where Billy Taylor, Don Gallinger and Johnny Quilty are?</p><p>Laurie Perkins</p><p>Danville, Que.</p><p><b>(We suggest you write to The Racing Form for that information about arriving at betting odds. Quilty is in Ottawa, Taylor is in Oshawa and Gallinger is in Port Col borne, Ont. Dumart, Peters, Ronty and Peirson scored the goals.)</b></p><h2><b>ENGLISH FRIEND</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>I wanted to write this letter in appreciation of your fine paper which arrives In such good condition after travelling so many miles. I have every issue to date, from number one volume one, and am wondering if this is a record for this side of the Atlantic.</p><p>Ian Chapman</p><p>West Hove, Sussex, Eng.</p><p><b>(You certainly do hold a record. Even in Canada you&rsquo;d be unbeaten.)</b></p><h2><b>THE CHALLANGE</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>I wish to challange a statement in your paper to the effect that &ldquo;hockey Is the only sport which provides 60 minutes of continuous action.&rdquo;</p><p>English football (soccer) is played in two halves of 45 minutes each with time out for major stoppages such as when a player is seriously injured. Stoppages for goal kicks, corner kicks, face kicks and threw-ins could not possibly total more than 10 minutes in even the dullest of games.</p><p>The same applies to a lesser degree in English Rugby football which is usually played in halves of 40 minutes and field hockey where halves of 35 minutes are th regulation time.</p><p>D. J. Smallwood</p><p>Toronto, Ont.</p><h2><b>BE-SPECKLED</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>Could you please tell me if Clint Albright, former New York Ranger, wore his eye glasses during a game and if so did he wear a mask.</p><p>Ronnie Duncan</p><p>North Vancouver, B.I.</p><p><b>(Albright always wore his glasses and never wore a mask.)</b></p><h2><b>HOT STOVE MISTAKE</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>The other Saturday night on the Hot Stove Broadcast from Toronto, one of their members brought up the matter of various players in the N.H.L. and their ages. Someone stated that Jack Gelineau of the Boston Bruins was the youngest goalkeeper in the league but as I keep records of all kinds I find that Harry Lumley of the Red Wings is the youngest goaler.</p><p>Lumley will be 23 on the 11th of November and Gelineau will be 25 on the same day.</p><p>Thomas Lee</p><p>Hamilton, Ont.</p><p><b>(The Hot Stove Leaguers must have meant in point of service with the N.H.L.)</b></p><h2><b>CORRECTION PLEASE</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>Congratulations on your expanding of THE HOCKEY NEWS, although there is one item that needs more coverage. That is the Manitoba Junior League, the best junior league in Canada.</p><p>Will you please allow me to correct you on your story of the Cincinnati Mohawks, Andy Hebenton played with the Winnipeg Canadiens last season, not Winnipeg Monarchs as stated.</p><p>Tom Lamont</p><p>Winnipeg, Man.</p><h2><b>HAPPY BIRTHDAY METRO</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>I&rsquo;ve received every issue of THE HOCKEY NEWS from volume 1 number 1 and wouldn&rsquo;t miss them tor anything.</p><p>How about including Metro Prystai on the birthday list for November 7, 1927. You&rsquo;ve missed him two years in a row. After all he&rsquo;s near the top in the scoring and deserves a little birthday congratulations. Also would like to see a story on Prystai in the &ldquo;News&rdquo;. He&rsquo;s one of the most improved players this season.</p><p>Rosemary Wallsten Chicago, 111 ..</p><h2><b>WHO&rsquo;S WRONG</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>A couple of weeks ago you had the players of the N.H.L. listed along with their ages.</p><p>You stated that Fred Glover of Detroit was 24 years old. I believe Freddy was born January 5th., 1928, which would make him 21<b>.</b></p><p>Doris Last</p><p>Galt, Ont.</p><p><b>(You are right. Freddy was born in Toronto on Jan. 8, 1928 which makes him 21).</b></p><h2><b>RECOGNIZES LEAFS</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>I enjoy reading your fine paper which seems to improve with every issue. The four extra pages make quite a difference, but how about more N.H.L. action shots.</p><p>Could you tell me if Harry Watson ever played defense for Toronto Leafs? Is Watson the heaviest forward in the N.H.L.</p><p>How about stories on players like Fleming Maekell, Ray Timgren and Frankie Mathers. Who Is Toronto&rsquo;s spare goalie now that Harvey has returned to college and Bastion had the misfortune to lose an eye?</p><p>I agree with Don Sherry of Tweed, Ontario. The Leafs have a good defense and deserve, to be recognized, but I guess the N.H.L. coaches know their job.&hellip;</p><p>Mac Randell</p><p>St. Johns, Nfld.</p><p><b>(Watson never played defense for the Leafs or any other club. He is the heaviest forward in the league and Gil Mayer, purchased from Buffalo and now playing for the Pittsburgh Hornets is the Leafs spare goalie. He played for the Barrie juniors last season.)</b></p><h2><b>WHERE ARE THEY NOW</b></h2><p>Dear Sir,</p><p>I want to know who Howie Morenz Jr., is playing for and do you think he will ever play pro hockey.</p><p>Did Jacques Richard have a tryout with Canadiens this year. What are his chances of playing pro.</p><p>E. Fortier</p><p>Earlton, Ont.</p><p>(Morenz has been reinstated as an amateur. He is now playing for the Valleyfield Braves of the Quebec Senior League.

THE FAN FORUM

<div class="byline">By SHIRLEY JACOBSON</div><div class="image-hero"><img title="f0007-01" src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0007-01127/1088632-1-eng-US/f0007-012.jpg"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b>DONNIE McFAYDEN&hellip;</b></p><p><b>&hellip;knows the law</b></p></figcaption></div><p>CHICAGO, Ill.&mdash;</p><p>Just like the old nursery rhyme, you find yesterday&rsquo;s hockey stars in every field and profession: &ldquo;Doctor, lawyer, merchant-chief, rich man, poor man&rdquo; all the way down the line.</p><p>One former Hawk of not so long ago is a very prominent and successful lawyer here in the Windy City. He is Donald P. McFayden, attorney and secretary for the American Bus Lines and Burlington Trailways. Not so long ago he was Donnie McFayden, centre for the Black Hawks and a favorite of the Chicago galleryites.</p><p>Today McFayden works in a beautiful office, complete with mahogany desks and deep carpets, with huge windows overlooking Lake Michigan. Donnie found it easy to slip from law books and Trailway Maps to Howie Morenz, Nelson Stewart, Johnnie Gottselig, Charlie Gardiner and those other great men who are only names in the record books today.</p><h2><b>Lambastes Today&rsquo;s Game</b></h2><p>&ldquo;Hockey today is terrible, there&rsquo;s too much helter-skelter. Everyone&rsquo; trying to score goals instead of trying to win games. When I played, every man was a two-way player, and they knew what to expect of each one during every 60-minute session,&rdquo; he says.</p><p>Born in Calgary, Alberta on March 24th, 1907, it&rsquo;s been a long time since Don started hockey when a child. Moving up through the regular groups, Don was centering for Calgary Canadians when they won the Memorial Cup in 1926.</p><p>Shortly after, Don had to decide whether he would join the Western Canada Hockey League or attend Marquette University. McFayden, looking to the future, packed his suitcase and left for the States.</p><p>&ldquo;I played hockey for Marquette while studying and was chosen centre on the All American Hockey team in 1930. It was that year that I experienced one of my most thrilling hockey memories. During the collegiate playoffs, Marquette a lowly western school, went east to Boston and defeated the big eastern champions, Harvard University 4 to 2.&rdquo;</p><p>The next season Don turned pro and joined the Chicago Shamrocks, forerunners of the Hawks. He performed with them for two years. When Jim Norris bought the Detroit Cougars (he changed the name to Red Wings) in 1932, he bought most of the Shamrock players, but Don chose to remain in the Windy City. He was attending the University of Chicago Law School at the time and chose to finish his education first. Don graduated in 1935 and established a practice here. He continued with his Law Office while playing hockey and later, during his five years as a linesman.</p><h2><b>Never Heavy Scorer</b></h2><p>&ldquo;I never was much of a scorer&rdquo;, McFayden commented. &ldquo;Usually I was sent out to prevent somebody from the other side scoring goals. The year we won the Stanley Cup, 1933-34, I scored only one goal and three assists. Not very good, but I spent most of each game back-checking. You don&rsquo;t get many shots at the net that way!&rdquo;</p><p>But Don played with the Hawks that wonderful year the underdog Chicago club won their first Stanley Cup. Chuck Gardiner was in the nets, with Taffy Abel, Lola Couture, Lionel Conacher and Art Coulter on defense and Gottselig, March, Trudell, Romnes, Thompson, Cook, McFayden, Jenkins to mention a few of the players up front.</p><p>&ldquo;It was a great year! That final game when Mush scored the only goal against Detroit and we won 1-0, must be the second biggest night I had in hockey.&rdquo; McFayden grinned remembering the bygone days. &ldquo;When the whistle blew, we hugged and kissed each other! What a series that was? And Gardiner? He was magnificent?&rdquo;</p><p>After that, Donnie played two more season with the Hawks, then took up the thankless job of linesman in 1938. Those were the days of one referee and one linesman. It was rugged work to say the least. &ldquo;Ion and I worked many games together, including play-offs. What a time we used to have!&rdquo;</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0007-02106/1088625-1-eng-US/f0007-022.jpg" title="f0007-02" width="523" height="1462"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b><i>Played Then</i></b></p><p><b>HOWIE MORENZ</b></p></figcaption></div><p>Finally in 1942, Don found that business and pleasure weren&rsquo;t mixing too well and he called it quits, hanging up his skates and whistle for good.</p><p>During the war, Don, an American citizen, enlisted in the Navy though he was over the draft age. He served on the Destroyer U.S.S. Sutherland as a navigator, spending some time with Admiral Halsey&rsquo;s third fleet. After his discharge, Don came back to the American Bus Company, where he holds an enviable and brilliant record.</p><p>McFayden sat silently a moment before answering the last question.</p><p>&ldquo;Howie Morenz was the greatest player I played with or against during my career! He loved that game of hockey and was a great competitor. Though in his decline when he came to the Hawks, he was always the first man dressed and ready to go. Before a game, he would wander around the dressing room, patting the players on the back, encouraging the rookies, adding confidence to encouragement.

<p>LONDON, Eng.&mdash;</p><p>Hull Volants, touring Canadian hockey squad, suffered their third defeat in four straight games as they were outclassed 7-3 by Harringay Racers, British Association champions.</p><p>From the moment the Racers&rsquo; winger Pete Payette burst through to notch the first goal elss than 10 seconds after the game began, the Quebec club just had no chance.</p><p>The Canadiens were outskated and outgeneralled throughout the first period, at the end of which the Racers led 4-0.</p><h2><b>Vols Wake Up</b></h2><p>The Volants came back strong in the middle session, however, cutting the margin to 4-2 with goals by forwards Marcel Legris and Gaston Desjardins. However, poor finish around the nets ruined several threatened thrusts and Payette squelched the rally with another goal in the second period&rsquo;s dying minutes to make it 5-2.</p><p>Ricky Richard added two more early in the third, and the Racers coasted home easily despite a goal by Hull&rsquo;s Louis Laflamme later in the period.</p><p>The Volants showed speed and occasional clever team play, but never really got going against the heavier, faster Racers, who are mostly made up of Canadians.</p><p>Payette and Richard each got three goals for Harringay, with Joe Shack, former New York Ranger, getting the seventh. The Racers drew four penalties to the Volant&rsquo;s three in the cleanly-played contest. Neither side scored while the opposition was shorthanded.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

Visiting Vols Slapped Down By Harringway

<div class="byline">By LEO ORNKST</div><p>SEATTLE, Wash.&mdash;</p><p>Practically overnight the picture in the Northern Division of the Pacific Coast League has changed from a two-team fight between Seattle and New Westminster for first place into a five-club battle for the leadership. Meanwhile, in the South, the talented San Francisco Shamrocks continue to widen the gap between themselves and the rest of the group.</p><p>Pacesetters from the opening game, Seattle Ironmen slipped badly, for them, losing three out of four games, two in succession and one&mdash;against Portland in Seattle, Nov. 9&mdash;saw Seattle&rsquo;s nine game home winning streak terminated as the Penguins went on to win, 6-3.</p><p>Joe Ciuman, Portland winger, turned in a sparkling performance, scoring four goals, to personally lead his club to a well-deserved triumph. It was Ciuman&rsquo;s outstanding show of the month-old campaign and made him the second player to score four goals in one game. Roy McKay, Victoria, turned the trick against Vancouver, Nov. 1 in the B.C city.</p><p>Five shutouts have been recorded to the time of writing. Lou Crowdis, San Francisco; Doug Stevenson, Tacoma (only one in Northern Division); Nip O&rsquo;Hearn, Oakland; Hec LeMarehe, Fresno; and Larry Frechette, San Diego; each have one. Hec Highton, Los Angeles, is the only California goalie without a goose-egg to his credit. San Diego has figured in the most blankings&mdash;one for and three against.</p><p>Dick Surphlis is the new manager of the Tacoma Rockets, succeeding Muzz Patrick, who has had his hands full with several positions. Muzz will also turn over the promotional job to Surphlis, former schoolmate of his while in Victoria.</p><p>Patrick will spent more time with his players now and it is rumored the former New York Rangers&rsquo; defense star will once again become a bench coach if Andy Lambrecht, forward turned defenseman, is capable of handling a blue line position.</p><p>Except for the first 10 days of the schedule, Rudy Filion, Seattle center, has been high pointman in the North. Ken Ullyot, New Westminster, center, led at the end of the first week of play, and Ollie Dorohoy, New Westminster left winger and Bill Shill, Vancouver right winger, were tied for the lead at the conclusion of the second week of play.</p><p>The Southern Division scoring has been dominated by San Francisco&rsquo;s ace pucksters&mdash;Jim Fairburn and Walt Samanski, sensational rookie last year.</p><p><b>ICICLES</b> &mdash; New Westminster is the first Northern Division club to invade the Southland this year. Playing coach Bill Carse of the Canucks is still on the bench, not fully recovered from a bad rib injury &hellip; When Tacoma defeated Portland, 5-1, Nov. 8 in Tacoma, the Rockets ace line of Mel Read, Wingy Johnston and Ronnie Rows figured in four of the goals and garnered &hellip; winning goals scoraccounted for 11 of the 14 pointsed, each with three game winners to his credit &hellip;</p><p>A partial list of &ldquo;Hat Trick!&rsquo; scorers in the Pacific Coast loop thus far includes Amy Dufault, New Westminster; Gordie Kerr, Morrie Hamilton and Joe Ciumaa (4), Portland; Rusty Aiken, San Diego; Walt Samanski, San Francisco; George Bougie and Roy McKay (4), Victoria; Alan Kuntz, Vancouver; &ldquo;Ching&rdquo; Dheere, Tacoma; and Rudy Filion, Seattle, who has also scored the only penalty shot goal of the campaign.</p><p>Al McFadzen, veteran defenseman, who has been in the P.C.H.L, since 1945-46, first with San Die-go then Seattle, was co-signed by the Ironmen after obtaining his release at the start of the season.</p><p>&hellip; Tacoma and Victoria both played to sellout crowds, Nov. 5, with over 4,000 jamming Tacoma Ice Arena to watch the Rockets defeat their bitter Seattle opponents, 6-3, for their first win over them this year.

<p class="dropcap"><span>M</span>aurice &ldquo;Rocket&rdquo; Richard was undoubtedly the Player Of The Week last week. In tour games he had five goals and one assist. In his last five games the &ldquo;Rocket&rdquo; netted no fewer than seven pucks while only adding one assist.

His past record is proof of that, although his play last season was not up to par. He has yet to go through a season and score less than 20 goals.</p><p>At 28 years old the &ldquo;Rocket&rdquo; has at least four good season left in him. At the rate he is scoring he will almost certainly pass Nels Stewart&rsquo;s all time scoring record of 326 goals. At this writing Richard has scored 219 goals in less time than it takes most players to net their first century.</p><p>Last week the Canadiens played four games. On November 9, they travelled to New York where they met up with the old Ranger Bugaboo. They managed a tie with the Blueshirts, 2-2. Richard netted both his club&rsquo;s goals. One night later, on the 10th the Habs came home and met the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Canadiens rocked Day&rsquo;s men back on their heels with a 4-1 victory. Richard netting two goals and lifting Gus Mortson out of his skates with the most powerful righthand punch ever seen on ice.</p><p>On November 12 the Habs went back to New York, and this time the story was different. The Canadiens won their second game in a row, downing the Manhatten boys 5-3. This time Richard managed to score one goal and pick up his first assist of the season. One night later in Chicago the Canadiens and Hawks played to a scoreless draw.

A Very Dark Future

<div class="byline">By DAVE KENNEDY</div><p>LOUISVILLE, Ky.&mdash;</p><p>The Johnnie-Come-Latelies evidently haven&rsquo;t gotten the word.</p><p>Louisville, rookie of the United States League, was tabbed to finish dead last in the consensus vote of the league&rsquo;s sportswriters in a pre-season poll.

The skinny, hawk-nosed towhead is the team&rsquo;s leading scorer and a scrapper whenever he&rsquo;s on the ice.</p><p>After a miserable showing in their home opener against Omaha, the Blades have shown they&rsquo;ll be a league contender. As notable as McArthur has been the play of right wing Jack Geisebrecht who has knocked in eight goals in the first seven games. By the way, it&rsquo;s a family affair when Louisville plays Omaha. Jack has two brothers on the Knights, Bruce and Bert.</p><h2><b>First Game Success</b></h2><p>The new Louisville icemen were made after their sensational play in the first home meeting with Kansas City.

Can’t Take Hint Blades Surprise

<div class="byline">By VINCE LEAH</div><p>WINNIPEG, Man.&mdash;</p><p>A stocky, stubby railway fireman is stoking the fires which he fondly hopes will light the way to hockey dominance for Mont real Canadiens.</p><p>Lawrence Henry Russell, who has been called nothing but Spud since he revealed a remarkable fondness for the dinner-table Murphys ag a small boy, is doing a full-time job now as chief scout for the Habitants with his headquarters in that hockey hot bed, Winnipeg.</p><p>From tiny bantams to seasoned seniors, they all come under Spud&rsquo;s surveillance at some time or other during the long months of a Western winter; to the smallest hamlet from the big city arena travels Spud, who is so much in love with hockey that no player is too humble, no game too minor to escape his interest. The result is that Montreal is building a vast empire in the west with affiliates in Edmonton and Regina as well as in Winnipeg and Fort William where the Habs juniors fondly sport the monicker of Canadiens.</p><p>Spud&rsquo;s overcoat pockets are jammed with notes and lists of hockey players and unlike some scouts who feel it is beneath their dignity and comfort to stand on the snowbanks, Spud can be seen on the edges of the countless open-air rinks around Greater Winnipeg, silently noting who shows promise enough to he considered for future membership in the Canadien family. The West End Memorial community club, which also is a Canadien affiliate in bantam hockey, is Spud&rsquo;s happy hunting ground and the kids around that part of west end Winnipeg know him as a regular visitor.</p><p>Canadiens other Winnipeg affiliates include Winnipeg Canadiens who operate junior, juvenile and midget teams and 90 per cent of the players on these teams were acquired in the first place by the indefatigable Russell, who can talk like a Times Square pitchman and who is as stubborn as the proverbial bulldog. Russell&rsquo;s enterprise and aggressiveness have annoyed some of his fellow ivory hunters who invariably are finding themselves beaten to the prospect by Spud, who will go gallivanting across the province at the slightest hint that a good player exists in some off-the beaten path spot. Last winter he turned up in Yorkton just in time to be pressed into service as a referee in a Saskatchewan minor playoff contest. Few were aware who he was but the opportunity gave Spud a better than rink-side view of the participants.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0011-01159/1088956-1-eng-US/f0011-012.jpg" title="f0011-01" width="524" height="847"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>FRANK SELKE</b></figcaption><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0011-02125/1088949-1-eng-US/f0011-022.jpg" title="f0011-02" width="508" height="851"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b>SPUD RUSSELL</b></p><p><b>GREAT BUILDERS</b></p></figcaption></div><p>Thirty years of age, Spud was a trifle too small to ever aspire to hockey greatness but his lack of physique did not detract from his intelligence and he is remembered as a clever centre man with Excelsior midgets fifteen years ago. After a couple of seasons with East Kildonan juveniles playing in such lush company as Alf Pike and Walter Stanowski, Spud dropped out as a player and Winnipeg Excelsiors acquired him as a coach for their bantams. Spud&rsquo;s list of successes as a coach in bantam, midget and juvenile hockey is as long as your arm. His wonderful 1941-42 Ranger juvenile champions stepped into junior company the next season and went all the way to the Memorial cup, a rare and unique achievement although for some mysterious reason Spud was dropped as coach before the junior season opened. St. James Canadians, forerunners of the present Winnipeg Canadiens, hired him as their junior coach but after a string of reverses, Spud decided junior coaching was not for him and he was happy to get back to the Excelsior club where he once more enjoyed his oldtime success in developing young players.</p><p>Frank Selke signed him as Manitoba scout two seasons ago. He did his job so thoroughly Selke put him in full command of the Canyon scouting system last fall.</p><p>Partial towards all sport and good enough to break 80 on the golf links, Spud remains in the ranks of single blessedness, although he has attended the groom more times than he can remember as his pals in sport join the benedicts. After all, he has only one love &hellip; and that happens to be hockey.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

With the 10 games in the records and the normal 60 left to play, the Wings are flying &mdash; in more ways than one.</p><p>They have flown right up to the perch they occupied most of last year, first place in the N.H.L. standings.</p><p>They also have discovered the airplane in the realm of transportation. Plane flights were used on both road trips this season, and there were no complaints.

At this writing Sid leads the league in scoring with 12 points. Furthermore, his line has produced 14 goals, Abel contributing five, Ted Lindsay six and Gordie Howe three.</p><p>The Wings have developed a great fondness for entertaining the New York Rangers.

AMERICAN LEAGUE

<div class="byline">By ACE FOLEY</div><p>HALIFAX, N. S.&mdash;</p><p>Look for an announcement any day now that Gordon (Doggie) Kuhn has been appointed coach of the Amherst Ramblers of the Maritime Senior (Big Four) Hockey League. Kuhn did a tremendous job with Dartmouth Arrows last winter. He&rsquo;s an expert trouble shooter, a man strong on team play. At the time of writing he was scouting players for the winless Ramblers. That is expected to be the step leading to the coaching job.</p><p>Kuhn starred in Windsor, Truro and Halifax in the late 20&rsquo;s, and then turned professional. For 10 years he served with distinction in the International and American Leagues, with a brief fling at the National League with New York Americans, the famous Old Men of Manhattan. Never heavier than 155 pounds, Kuhn was a prolific scorer and a fast skater. Since retiring he has served with success as coach and referee. At one time he piloted Truro Bearcats in the Big Four.</p><h2><b>Star Of Gay 20&rsquo;s</b></h2><p>Kuhn was a member of the Maritimes&rsquo; first Allan Cup contender. In 1928 he starred with Truro Bearcats as they bowed to Frank Carlin&rsquo;s Montreal Victorias in the Eastern Canada semi-final. Two years later he was again in Montreal with the Bearcats, as they lost to the famous Winged Wheelers, who went on to the Allan Cup and gave six players to professional ranks. On that great M.A.A.A. team were Dave Kerr, Johnny Gallagher, Paul Haynes et al. And the Bearcats made a surprisingly good showing.</p><p>Big Four officials showed their concern over Amherst&rsquo;s prolonged losing streak and held a special meeting to discuss the situation. The Ramblers showed a desire to continue, and promised to bolster their team. Now it looks as if Kuhn will wind up as coach. He&rsquo;s probably the right man for the job.</p><p>The Big Four also decided to do away with overtime. The players were squawking against an extra period because of the extra heavy schedule. Each league team plays 72 games this winter.</p><h2><b>Tripped By Form &ldquo;C&rdquo;</b></h2><p>The hockey spotlight centered on Halifax St. Mary&rsquo;s during the past week because Don (Peanuts) McLaughlin ran afoul of the much - discussed &ldquo;C&rdquo; Form. McLaughlin was suspended by the C.A.H.A. and the N.H.L. on word from Eddie Shore of Springfield Indians, who had given the burly young defenseman a tryout early this fall.</p><p>Head coach Marty Barry had a long telephone conversation with Shore, and Eddie agreed to release McLaughlin. Marty and Eddie were teammates for six years with Boston Bruins. Shore instructed Clarence Campbell to release McLaughlin, which he did. Then up popped a rare rhubarb.</p><p>St. Mary&rsquo;s put McLaughlin&rsquo;s name on their player list against Saint John Beavers. Peanuts didn&rsquo;t play in the first period, but in the Interval Barry telephoned AI Pickard, C.A.H.A. president who said it was o.k. to use their roan that evening. So McLaughlin played, and St. Mary&rsquo;s won the game. Then Big Four president awarded the game to the Beavers, which put them into the league lead.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0014-01182/1089285-1-eng-US/f0014-012.jpg" title="f0014-01" width="233" height="378"><figcaption class="caption-body"><b>Bill Cowley</b></figcaption></div><p>Later, however, the M.A.H.A. received official word from the C.A.H.A., and the game was taken from the Beavers and given to the Santamarians. It seems that the C.A.H.A. didn&rsquo;t inform the M.A.H.A. of McLaughlin&rsquo;s reinstatement Unless Shore has a change of heart, McLaughlin will finish out the season with the Saints. He was originally signed as a junior by Bill Cowley when the latter was scouting for Washington Lions two years ago.</p><h2><b>Old Rivals Battling</b></h2><p>Sydney Millionaires, coached by Murph Chambairlain, and North Sydney Victorias, piloted by Sweeney Schriner, are waging a stout two-team struggle for leadership in Cape Breton League. Glace Bay Miners, under Hal Dewey, have drawn up closer to the leaders but so far it is strictly a two-team race.</p><p>It was reported in this department a week or so ago that Chamberlain had released Don (Whip) Whalen. That was in error. Whip was the team&rsquo;s leading scorer last year and is still going strongly.</p><p>Leading scorer to date is Big Dune McIntyre, who had a tryout two months ago with Detroit Red Wings. The burly winger, who starred with St. Francis Xavier University teams for four years, is Chamberlain&rsquo;s most expert marksman.</p><p>Halifax St. Mary&rsquo;s off to a great start, had scored 10 victories in their first 13 games. They had seven straight on Halifax ice, two in overtime over Jackie Keating&rsquo;s Saint John Beavers. Now that overtime has been abandoned, the Santamarians will never know how long their three straight victories in extra time would have been extended.</p><p>The Saints closest call was against the Beavers, who led 4-1 with only eight minutes remaining. Then a rally led by Gordie Armstrong, last year with the Memorial Cup-winning Montreal Royals, netted the tying markers and the locals scored three goals without a reply in overtime.</p><p>Halifax fans are elated over the elevation of erstwhile junior star Bert Hirschfeld. Most of his friends think he&rsquo;ll be with Les Canadiens of the National League before the season is over.</p><h2><b>Drawback</b></h2><p>Biggest obstacle which American youngsters have to overcome, if they are to become hockey stars, is their lack of the ability to stickhandle.</p><p>&ldquo;Most American kids from the colder States are excellent skaters&rdquo;, says Bill Cook, coach of the Minneapolis Millers and former N.Y. Ranger great, &ldquo;but they don&rsquo;t start handling a stick until they reach high school age. Canadian youngsters carry a hockey stick summer and winter, whether they are on the ice or on the sidewalk, and even substitute a tin can to a puck if necessary, to develop the art of stickhandling.</p><h2><b>Jean Canuck</b></h2><p>Big Marcel Pronovost, defenseman of the Omaha Knights, shapes up up like one of the coming stars of the game. This lanky youngster handles himself like a seasoned performer right now and is only 19 years old and playing his first season of professional hockey. A French-Canadian, Marcel hopes to add his name to the long list of French-Canadian hockey players whose names are famous in the short history of ice hockey.<span class="end-marker"> &#9632;</span></p>

C. &mdash;</p><p>Victoria Cougars of the Pacific Coast League have added two high-scoring centermen to their roster, acquiring Eddie &ldquo;Pistol&rdquo; Dorohoy on loan from Montreal Canadiens of the N.H.L. and Russ Kopak, erstwhile Fort Worth player, signed with the Vies after receiving his release from Seattle Ironmen.</p><p>Dorohoy, sensational &ldquo;rookie&rdquo; with the Habitants last year in training, started the current season with King Clancy&rsquo;s Cincinnati Mohawks, American League farm club of ollie Dorohoy Montreal. He played 16 games with Canadiens last year and finished the 1948-49 campaign with Dallas, scoring 19 goals and 21 assists for 40 points in 34 games, averaging better than a point a game.</p><h2><b>Shot In Arm</b></h2><p>Eddie should give Lester Patrick&rsquo;s first year Cougars the necessary scoring punch to keep the youthful Vies near the top of the fast Northern Division championship race. The Cougars, to the surprise of pre-season forecasters, were in third place in game up to November 4, and the addition of Dorohoy and Kopak has bolstered their stock considerably.</p><p>When Victoria plays New Westminster, November 25 in Victoria and the following night in N. W., it will be the first time the two Dorohoys&mdash;Eddie and older brother Ollie, veteran left wing ace of New Westminster &mdash; will have played against each other. They have never played on the same team in their hockey careers and Eddie hasn&rsquo;t seen Ollie perform for eight seasons.</p><p>Kopak, 25-year-old pivotman, broke in with Victoria with a bang, scoring a goal and an assist in his first game, October 28, to pace the Cougars to a thrilling 5-3 win over Portland in the Canadian city.</p><h2><b>Nearly Finished Russ</b></h2><p>Russ played for Forth Worth, now defunct, in the United States League the past four seasons and was a consistent 20-goal scorer until a serious eye injury in 194748 sidelined him for the greater part of the year. He scored 17 goals and 33 assists for 50 points in 1948-49 with Fort Worth and Houston. He played one month with the Huskies.</p><p>&hellip;A native of Edmonton, proving ground of the Colvilles&mdash;Neil and Mac&mdash;, Ken Reardon, Bill Gadsby, Duke Keats, Bill and Bob Carse, to name but a few, Russ jumped from the Regina Abbott Juniors in 1942 to the Boston Olympics in 1943-44 and was called up by Art Ross to play for the Bruins. In 24 games with Boston he scored seven goals and nine assists.</p><div class="figure-block image-block"><img src="/var/site_2854/storage/images/media2/images/f0018-0274/1089678-1-eng-US/f0018-022.jpg" title="f0018-02" width="535" height="850"><figcaption class="caption-body"><p><b><i>Ahoy Boy!</i></b></p><p><b>EDDIE DOROHOY</b></p></figcaption></div><h2><b>Hockey Swift</b></h2><p>Most difficult of all games to handle is ice hockey.

TOP LEFT, Hec Highton in the Los Angeles goal takes a chance on being knocked flat on his face as he skates out to intercept a Seattle rush.
