Howell Recalls 15-Year Career, Garden “Boobirds”
NEW YORK, N.Y— Harry Howell, the scars and strains betraying his 15 years in the NHL, remembers the Saturday night in October 1952 when he played his first game for the Rangers. Since then he’s played 1,000. He remembers the Hy Bullers, the Wally Hergesheimers and the Chuck Rayners—all his teammates—and he remembers Allan Stanley, who played defense with him. In time Allan Stanley was booed out of Madison Square Garden although the large man was, continued to be, and still is, one of the league’s most competent defensemen. In time, they began booing Harry Howell because Allan Stanley was gone and Harry Howell played the same laconic, intelligent game that his partner played and soon Harry Howell gave up the captaincy the Rangers had given him and soon, it appeared, the Rangers would…

Maki’s Tenacious Checking Of NHL Rivals Frees Linemates Hull, Esposito To Score

The Hawks were weary from having played four games in five nights—and producing three victories—but Maki was both weary and in pain. Chico, who is regarded by his bosses as the toughest checker pound-for pound to be found among the National League’s forwards, played a week-end home stand against New York and Toronto despite the fact that he was suffering from a pulled groin muscle and a Charley horse. “It took an awful lot of guts for Chico to even go on the ice in those two games,” said Hawk Coach Billy Reay. “We didn’t know until just before the game whether or not he’d be able…
Clippers’ Team Physician Doing Wonders As Club Hit Hard By Injuries
BALTIMORE, Md.— There has hardly been a player on the Clippers’ hockey team who hasn’t contributed to the team’s early success this season but by the looks of things the most valuable player award may end up in the hands of team physician Dr. Ross Pierpont. While the players are now working at the game about three or four nights a week, Pierpont is on the job seven days, 24-hours each day trying to keep the Baltimore team together. There are currently four players nursing broken bones on coach and general manager Terry Reardon’s unit, a number which would likely cripple most teams. But, luckily and through clever off-season dealing, Reardon has had extra players on hand to fill in for his crippled players. Defenseman Ron Ingram, utilityman Ed MacQueen and forwards Sandy McGregor…
