Marty Pavelich Finally Gets First Goal
DETROIT, Mich.— Marty Pavelich picked a great spot to finally score his first goal of the season. A regular on Detroit’s seven straight title teams, Pavelich was benched earlier this season as ineffective. Finally he was returned to part-time duty as a penalty-killing specialist. Explosion It was in such a role that Marty was toiling in the second period of a scoreless and rather dull game here against Toronto. Warren Godfrey was serving the Detroit penalty when Pavelich clicked to set off a Detroit explosion. Fore-checking in the Toronto zone, he poked the puck away from Center Billy Harris. Numerous Leafs were in the area but Pavelich beat them all to the puck and laced a 10-footer past Goalie Harry Lumley. Rough Season The goal, coming in game No. 29 of what had been a rough season…

K-W Dutchmen Will Seek Reinforcements For Trip To 1956 Winter Olympics
STRATFORD, Ont.— Sufficient evidence why Kitchener Dutchmen led the senior “A” O.H.A. league by 14 points on Dec. 19 is provided by their record for the month during which they added 12 of a possible 16 points, winning five games, tying two and losing but one, that to Owen Sound Mercurys. The Dutchmen did this minus two of their stars, defenceman Joe Schertzl and leftwinger Gerry Theberge, the latter returning to action for their last game. By the same token, it isn’t difficult to understand why Windsor Bulldogs and Stratford Indians are tied for the second slot, the Bulldogs having won three, lost three and tied one for seven points of a possible 14; while the Indians were winning three, losing two and tying two for eight points of a possible 14…
