NATIONAL LEAGUE
Most Penalized Players For ten seasons two NHL players led the league in penalties. From 1932-33 to 1939-40 Red Horner of Toronto led and from 1940-41 to 1942-43 Jimmy Orlando of Detroit had the dubious honor of being the Louie Has A Record Lou Fontinato of the Rangers holds the all-time record for penalties by a player in one season.

Clippers Take Second Straight EHL Flag In Final Game Of Season
PHILADELPHIA. Pa — The Charlotte Clippers defeated the Washington Presidents, 3-1 on the final day of the Eastern Hockej’ League schedule to finish in first place for the second consecutive year. The Clippers went into the last game action trailing the Presidents by one point in the standings, 76-75. But surpassed them with the two points earned for the season-ending victory.

Reay Sees Ray Of Hope In Rougher Duffer As Leader
TORONTO, Ont. — As if things were not rough enough through his rookie season as coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Billy Reay wound up the campaign promoting a rougher Duffer. Dick Duff, the pride of Leafs’ left wing corps, was alternately one of the disappointments, then one of the major consolations in Toronto’s unsuccessful campaign to avert a record two straight seasons out of the Stanley Cup playoffs.

And he also encountered his first major league injury, suffering a pulled groin that sidelined him through five games during Leafs’ last ditch stand. Yet all this did not prevent him from retaining his position as Leafs’ most successful goal-scorer and point-getter. And…
Player-of-the-week
Johnny Wilson… …Detroit Red Wing DETROIT, Mich. — When the Detroit Red Wings insisted that Johnny Wilson be included in the pre-season trade for Ted Lindsay and Glenn Hail, they felt that the ex-Wing could possibly be the sleeper in the deal. He had scored over 20 goals the season before with the Hawks and finally seemed to be hitting the heights predicted of him by both the Wings and later the Hawks. This season Johnny started off slowly, to say the least. He went almost quarter of the season before getting his first goal. His play was as fine as it had ever been, Johnny just wasn’t getting that puck past the goalers. Luck wasnt with him through most of this season, for if it had been, he would have hit…
