Dukes Flash Speed And Power; Race Into Lead Against Saints
TORONTO, Ont. Coming up with one of their best games of the season, Toronto Marlboros stunned Sherbrooke Saints and their supporters with a 7-4 decision over the Quebec Senior League champions in Sherbrooke on April 12 and followed with a 3-1 decision in Toronto two nights later to take a two-game lead in the Eastern Canadian Senior final series. Attacking speed, plus the combination of a solid back-checking front and sound defensive play, gave Dukes a big edge in the last period of their Sherbrooke victory. Dukes took a 2-1 lead in the first period on goals by Al Buchanan and Gordon Hannigan before Norman McAtee responded for the homesters. “Red” Johnson, who starred throughout with his centre-ice checking, made it 3-1 for Dukes after 74 seconds of the second period, but…

BLUES’ THIRD ERA SEES THEM IN MIDST OF CUP BATTLE — WILL THEY REPEAT?
(The Toronto Telegram) TORONTO, Ont.— It’s well over two decades since Conn Smythe left New York under a full head of steam and lit in Toronto to lay the groundwork for what was eventually to become the fabulous Maple Leafs hockey empire. Behind him he left what constituted, under today’s prices, a million dollars worth of hockey players who were subsequently under the coaching of the almost legendary Silver Fox, Lester Patrick, to form the first great New York Ranger club. That was the preface of the Horatio Alger story that the Broadway Blueshirts wrote in the fine type of the National Hockey League’s record books.
