AMERICAN LEAGUE
Timely Tallies Teammates Andy Barbe and Jack Caffery had a timely time of it during the week’s play, boosting the Pittsburgh Hornets into a temporary tie for second place on the merit of two well-scored goals. Playing against Cleveland Barons, the Hornets were one goal down at the end of the second frame. They went even on Barbe’s goal in the third, then won it on Caffery’s effort. Sharing the Kudos Dano Fisher, the amazing man from the Hershey Bears, had a little competition in the how-to-help-your-team department during the week. Jumping Joe Lund paced the Buffalo Bisons by scoring once and assisting on two others for a total of three points in one game. Fisher proved that he hasn’t lost his touch by scoring twice in succession. HOW THE RACE GOES STANDING ON MONDAY…

Caps Lead Tightly Knit Atlantic Loop
FREDERICTON, N.B.— After two weeks of play the ding-dong battle for first spot in the Atlantic Coast Senior Hockey League is still very much of a toss-up.
