Lynn Punches Mortson Because He’s Mortson, Then Kicks Self

(Toranoto evening telegram) TORONTO, Ont.— Lynn Patrick, coach of the New York Rangers, has a weird allergy. Dandelions wool, dog hair and such leave him cold and unruffled but when Patrick views the like countenance of Gus Mortson crag it’s the signal for his corpuscles to commence popping recklessly. Not that Mortson’s features would scare little kids, Patrick is probably one a very few who view Gus in such a manner. It was the unfortunate proximity of the Mortson mug, according to Patrick, which touched off that sizzling scene in the hallway between the dressing room of the Maple leafs Gardens recently.

Protect Rets With Red Circle — Ivan

(Toronto Evening Telegram) TORONTO, Ont.— The monotonous hassling prevalent between players and N.H.L. referees is getting to the point where even fans, who like to get full value for their money, are getting a mite bored. It’s reached the point where the C’s and A’s that selected players wear on their sweaters are not much more than decoration. The fact that these players are supposedly the only ones qualified to question a decision has become lost in the volubility of the other Jokers who try to prove that they can make like Perry Mason better than the other guy.
