The Player Of The Week
How does a little man succeed among the hockey giants of the National League? Ask rugged Stan Mikita of the Chicago Black Hawks. He appears to have the secret in his hip pocket. The fiery 24-year-old Mikita is showing the way again this season in the individual NHL point race and his performance has been one of the big factors in the Black Hawks’ quick getaway that has enabled them to set the pace for the rest of the NHL. Mikita enjoyed another productive week with a goal and four assists to push his scoring edge to five points over Detroit’s Norm Ullman, who drew a blank last week. Mikita is the loop’s leading playmaker to date with 15 assists. He also has six goals. His lifetime record now stands at 156 goals,…
Scott Young Put Experience To Work In Penning Book — “The Leafs I Knew”
TORONTO, Ont— Credit Scott Young with turning out the best book ever written about the colorful Toronto Maple Leafs. Young, who has penned “The Leafs I Knew” for Ryerson Press, has written many top sellers but Ryerson is particularly proud of his latest effort dealing with the Maple Leafs. What Scott has done with this most recent hockey book is described in some quarters as a “nonbook” because he has drawn heavily on previously written material when he was a sports writer for the Globe and Mail. However, he has not just dumped these columns into a book, as other authors have done, and I don’t blame them — he has only used the columns as a guide and enlarged on them and worked them climactically to the winning of a Stanley Cup…

Rochester Kills Three Double Penalties In Game
ROCHESTER, N.Y.— Playing four skaters against five while killing off a penalty in an enemy rink is tough enough, but when it’s three against five for any length of time, it’s almost impossible to escape unscathed. Well, the onrushing Rochester Americans, or rather six of the Amerks, combined to kill off successive penalties not once but three times in Cleveland on Nov. 12! The Barons enjoyed a two-man advantage for a total of two minutes and 48 seconds during these three Rochester manpower shortages. Goalie Bobby Perreault, defenseman Don Cherry, Al Arbour and Darryl Sly and forwards Mike Corrigan and Terry Clancy stopped Cleveland cold, however, and played a major part in Rochester taking a 3-2 decision. Sly was chased for elbowing at 12:23 and Duane Rupp for hooking at 13-34 of the first period.…
