Fern Does Neat Job in ‘Bashin Bill’s’ Spot
Wanted by Leafs as Insurance, Former Bruin was Unanimous Choice as Barilko’ Fill-in TORONTO, Ont.— Hap Day, assistant general manager of the Maple Leafs, was never so aware as to just how unpopular he is in Boston until just recently. Day, promenading the catacorbs of The Boston Garden during a recen Leaf-Bruin game there, was shocked to hear in his travels such remarks: “Check your wallet. Here comes grab bag Day.” And … “Wonder who he’s going ro steal now?” Such uncouth remarks stem, no doubt, from some recent Leaf deals with the Bruins, lhe most recent, of course, was the Fleming Mackell-for-Jim Morrison switch but the one that clogs in the craw of the Boston fans was that of last season when the Bruin management took Bill Ezinicki and Vic Lynn and gave away center…
Player-of-the-Week
The fine play of Eddie Slowinski has been instrumental in bringing the New York Rangers back into the playoff picture. The Rangers, now in contention for fourth place, the last play off position won two and lost one last week and big Ed distinguished himself by nearly making it a complete coup. For his fine all around play we have nominated him Piayer-of-the-week and O’Keefe’s award winner. Slowinski scored four goals and added an assist in the three games. The Rangers defeated the Hawks, Bruins and came close to dumping the Leafs as well. The Rangers were scheduled to play four games last week but due to the death of King George VI the Toronto game was postponed and will be played later on. In Chicago on February 7 the Rangers broke a…

’Phone City Fans Abuxx Over Redmen
TORONTO, Ont.— There is no denying the tact that Johnny shewchuck, one of our old hockey pals, has done a mighty fie chore in creating a desire for senior “A” hockey in Ontario’s Telephone City, after many years of so-so activity and positively no fan interest… At the latest reading of the OHA listings, Brantford is engaged in a grim 4 struggle with Owen Sound Mercurys and Hamilton Tigers with third and fourth playoff stations as tl big prize. The addition of Toronto’s Billy Shill has given Brantford new scoring strength up front. Shill, who was an outstanding junior, bounced around several professional circuits before finally settling down in Brantford, where he is once again playing the brand of hockey that marked him as an outstanding prospect while a junior. Brantford also…
