Watson Sees Bruins Making Playoffs
BOSTON, Mass.— Phil Watson confidently predicts the Bruins will make the National Hockey League playoffs next season. To prove his point he gives two reasons: 1—improved goaltending; and 2—a strengthened defense. “The goalkeeper was our big problem last year.” Watson explained. “Goaltending is 50 percent of a club and when it is as sour as ours was at the start of the year, then you’re in trouble. “Well, we think that problem has been straightened out with the addition of Bob Perreault and Ed Johnston to go along with Bruce Gamble.” The Bruins will carry two goaltenders next winter.

Veteran Jack Bownass Quits Pro Hockey After 10 Years
WINNIPEG, Man.— Jack Bownass, who has travelled through all of hockey’s minor circuits and the National League as well, has decided to retire.
