MILT DUNNELL speaking on SPORT
(As Seen In The Toronto Star) Trouble Comes Looking For Ted Green Trouble is Ted Green’s blood brother. When Ted shuns trouble, it comes looking for him. Of course, it isn’t often that he shuns it. In case you have forgotten, Ted! is the husky, fresh-faced belter whom the Boston Bruins dug out of Winnipeg last season. He was as refreshing as a Cape Cod seabreeze in an otherwise drab Boston picture. Ted was Green by name and green by big league standards. As a new Bruin, he hit the headlines early by taking a roundhouse swing at Leafs’ Frank Mahovlich—in an exhibition game, of all things. He missed the Big ‘M’ but a goal post forgot to duck. Green’s hand was broken. This was recorded as the least excusable injury since Harry…
GM Ivan Figures 87 Points Enough To Win NHL Race
CHICAGO, III.— Tommy Ivan, general manager of the Chicago Black Hawks, thinks 87 points will be enough to win the National’Hockey League regular season race this year. This would be the lowest point total for the first place team since the 70-game schedule was inaugurated in the 1949-50 season. “It could even be as low as 85 points,” said Ivan. “The race is closer than any I can remember. This, of course, is what will account for the low winning point total.” Ivan’s Black Hawks, which have held or shared first place since Dec. 2, have never won the NHL regular season race. They held first place by four points over Toronto and Montreal on Feb. 5 with a total of 62 points in their first 51 games. If Ivan’s figuring is correct, Chicago…

Gump Ideal For The Job Says Ex-Ranger Colville
NEW YORK, N.Y.— One person who thinks Gump Worsley is well suited for his goalkeeping role with the Rangers is ex-New York ice great Neil Colville. “He’s got the right attitude for goaltending,” said Colville, who was in town for a recent RangerBruin game. “He never pushes himself mentally. “If pressure hasn’t got him now, after playing with the Rangers, it won’t ever get him.”…
