ST. LOUIS, Mo.— Two Jean Pauls mean double trouble, the Flyers hope this season, with the acquisition of Lamirande to go on the same line with Gladu. And from indications in the first 20 games, these two Frenchmen will give opponents just that.

Fights, Upsets, Blasts Etc., In OHA Grabs Share Of Ink

TORONTO, Ont.— Despite the football hysteria that becomes part of the Grey Cup final scene, hockey has managed to crash the headlines for a fair share of public attention. A few examples.— Coach Jimmy Skinner of Windsor Spitfires socks an usher in the Barrie Arena during the excitement of Barrie Flyers walloping the Windsor crew and gets himself arrested. Manager Mason and Secretary Somerville of Guelph Biltmores engaged in a verbal how-de-dow with executive members of the Ontario Hockey Association. St. Michael’s upset Marlboros 6-5 in a rugged OHA Major Series of home and home four point games.
