Seals Snap Back To Life Again Behind Super Coalkeeping Of Smith, Hodge
OAKLAND — The Oakland Seals seem to have discovered a new weapon-the third period blitz-and solved many of the problems which troubled them during training camp, particularly goaltending! Although the Seals, plagued by injuries and more interested in giving their kids a lot of ice time, were erratic during the exhibition season, they appear to have jelled around the at times sensational goaling of Charlie Hodge and Gary Smith. Hodge was super in the Seals’ NHL opener in Pittsburgh. While his mates were fussing around trying to get something going, little Charlie held off the Penguins for two periods.

Red Fates For WHL’s Home Clubs
SEATTLE — See the boys with the long, long faces? They are presidents and owners and general managers — people with one eye on the ice and one eye on the box office. You see, the boys on the ice are acting up again this season in the Western Hockey League. Like Vancouver opened at home against Seattle, and the Totems ruined the evening, 4-1. So the Totems drove home for their opener before all those everloving fans in Seattle. The Portland Buckaroos stomped ‘em, 85. Now we really don’t have to tell you what happened the next night, ‘eh? Portland opened at home against Vancouver. Naturally the Canucks won to complete the triangle. But maybe it was worse in San Diego. Oh, how those Gull fans turned out, 13,632 of them for an opening-night record…
