Adams Chats With Ted - Zoom, He Passes Smith!
DETROIT. Mich.— Remarkable are the wonders which Jack Adams can work with a “man-toman, heart-to-heart” ta1k with his hockey players. That’s the way Adams describes a little chat he had with Ted Lindsay a couple of weeks ago. It came at a time when Lindsay was In his worst slump since becoming a Detroit star. No one, certainly not Adams, denies that Lindsay is an outstanding star. Trouble was, out on the ice he wasn’t looking like one — or scoring like one. Beyond that brief description of their talk, Adams declines to say what magic words he used on Lindsay. “You might say I appealed to his personal pride as a player,” said Adams with a sly smile.

New Year’s Day Golf Game Lost Ezzie Job With B’s
BOSTON, Mass.—A round of golf on New Year’s Day at South Shore Country Club in nearby Hingham is what cost Bill Ezinicki his hockey job with the Boston Bruins, says General Manager Art Rose. According to Ross, Ezinicki played golf in the afternoon, then played a poor game of hockey against the New York Rangers that night. “I found out about it and he admitted it to me,” said Ross. “He’ll never make a living playing hockey because lie’s too much interested in golf, too much for us, at any rate.” Ezinicki, golf professional at Colonial Country Club in Lynnfield, Mass., was sold to the Pittsburgh Hornets via Toronto on January 27.…
