Toupin’s Great Work At Trois-Rivieres Sparks Birth Of Bumptious Civic Pride
(As seen In the Montreal Herald) • LLOYD JOHN ERNST is the square monicker of a broad—s-h-ouldered defence-man, who sports a blondish crew-cut. He’s out of Halifax, N.S. For many seasons he was on the rearguard with the old Valleyfield Braves in the QSHL. He travelled under the nick-name “Bingo.” This last handle has now become obsolete. They should call the guy “Suitcase.” He lives out of one, he gets around so much. Those close to affairs in the Quebec Hotkey league were rather statled the other night When Ernst bobbed up with the Trods-Revieres Lions for their game with Royals. For Bingo or Suitcase was now with his fourth QHL club and his sixth in minor pro ranks this season. Ernst began the season with Quebec Aces. He went to Quebec when the…

Rochester Boosts AHL’s Rising Attendances
ROCHESTER, N.Y.— Chapter number two in the Rochester hockey story was completed on Sunday, January 27, when the American Hockey League’s newest entry had its first standing room only, turn away crowd. When 7,109 hockey fans paid their way into the Rochester War Memorial that night, it climaxed a steady increase in attendance which had started to build up in mid—December. It was then that the sports loving Rochesterians began to realize fully what a fine hockey club was representing their city, and also the many efforts being made by the well run management to provide them with top hockey thrills. Just to prove that the game of January 27 was no fluke, 7,0 56 came back again on a mid-week, Friday, February 1, to again cheer the team on. With the…
Marlies Halt Guelph’s Runaway Aspirations
GUELPH, Ont.— A threatened runaway of the Junior “A” race by the Guelph Biltmores has dissolved into a two team battle for top honors between and the stretch-running Toronto Marlboros.

The Hatters first slump of the season coupled with a seven game winning streak by Marlboros was responsible for cutting down the margin. While Marlies were on their extended win streak the best Guelph could do was a pair of ties in four starts and the result was two points to the Dukes’ 14. The big win was a…
