Al Dewsbury Rates As Key Man In Buffalo Plans For Title
BUFFALO, N.Y.— The mental, as well as the physical, condition of one Albert Percy Dewsbury will have much to do with the success or failure of the Buffalo Bisons in this season’s American League race. For if Frank Eddolls’ crew boasts one man who can be called the “key” player, it’s Big Al, as Dewsbury is more popularly known. Dewsbury proved his ability to “carry” the club in the early weeks of the 1955-56 campaign before he was called up to Chicago. “Dews played terrific hockey for us before going to the Hawks last year and if he plays the same way this season, we’ll let a few clubs know we’re in the league,” General Manager Fred Hunt commented recently. Not only was Big Al a strong defender, he was a tremendous threat on attack,…
Few Changes In Make-Up Of ‘56-57 Detroit Red Wings Placing Of Ullman On Production Line Only Major Shift Planned This Season
SAULT STE. MARIE. Mich— The complexion of Detroit Red Wings for the 1956-57 season will hardly be changed compared to last season. That’s the impression given following days of gruelling workouts at Pullar Stadium here. However, one major change is that the Wings will carry five defensemen and 12 forwards instead of the 6-11 formula adopted last season. Glenn Mall, who never does look spectacular at training eamps, will be in goal. There was never arty question of this right from the start. Said Coach Jimmy Skinner: “No, Glenn never does seem to shine in the workouts but we know what lie can do when it really counts.” For defense, four of the five spots were cinched tighter than a drum right off the bat. The names: Red Kelly, Marcel Pronovost, Larry Hillman and…
QHL Royals Acquire Connie Broden From Cataracts
MONTRE AL. Que.— Connell (Connie) Broden the shifty centerman who has given his talents to the cause of Shawinigan Falls Cataracts for the past two seasons will be wearing the blue and red spangles of the Montreal Royals this season. All details of a transaction with the Canadians’ chain of farm clubs hadn’t been completed as this edition rolled presswise. One notion was that Phil Goyette, also a centreman, might be swapped even-stephen for Broden the lad who has the more personal interest at stake. In any case it seems that the 24-year-old Broden who packs good speed on the runner, a tricky shift and playmaking ability and above all a high potential at putting-the-puck in the net, wants to be located in Montreal this season. Because, he’s after more education pointing to…
