‘Big M’ Capable Of Counting 50 Says Bobby Hull
—CHICAGO, Illinois Bobby Hull of the Chicago Black Hawks, hockey’s latest 50-goal scorer, singles out Frank Mahovlich of the Toronto Maple Leafs as the type of player who is capable of reaching the coveted 50-goal mark. “He’s big, strong, and has a good shot,” says Hull, who last season joined Rocket Richard and Bernie Geoffrion of Montreal as the only men to score 50 goals in a single season. “He has a long range and long reach with his stick, a good shift, is hard to check and plays for a contending team.” Mahovlich excited the hockey world three seasons ago when he scored 48 goals. The “Big M” tailed off toward the end of the year as Montreal’s Geoffrion surged past him on the way to his record-tying 50-goal effort. —HARRY MOLTER…

Hull Says To Perform Feat Again He’d Need A Lot Of Things Going
CHICAGO, Ill— Will the National Hockey League see another 50-goal performance by any of its players in the near future ? According to Bobby Hull of the Chicago Black Hawks, to score 50 goals in a single season a player “has to have every thing going for him”. Hull also thinks that 50 goals will stand as the record for quite a while although he admits that “once you’ve reached the 50 mark the 51st is just another goal”. Hull is one of only three men in the history of hockey who is qualified to speak on the subject. He earned the right by scoring 50 goals last season. The other members of the exclusive club are Bernie Geoffrion of Montreal, who hit the 50 mark in 1960-61; and Rocket Richard, also of Montreal…
Mikita’s Back, “Scooter Line” Scooting Again
CHICAGO, Ill.— The Chicago Black Hawks have welcomed the return of centre Stan Mikita to the National Hockey League wars. The all-star pivot, who missed the team’s first six games with an ankle injury, came back to the team Oct. 23 and he immediately made his presence felt. For example in the first game he saw action, Mikita counted one goal. In the next game, a 3-2 win over Montreal, he scored again. And in his third start, he set up three Hawk goals in a 5-3 victory over New York. The return of Mikita put the club’s “Scooter Line” back into prominence as left wing Ab McDonald and right winger Ken Wharram began to find the range with Mikita setting them up. McDonald scored twice and Wharram once in downing the Rangers and Coach…
