Iowa Stars’ Hopes Lift As NHL Recalls Return
New Subscribers To THE HOCKEY NEWS Guaranteed To Get First Issue Within Two Weeks HOCKEY NEWS Makes An Ideal Gift On Any Occasion. Give A Subscription To Dad Or Brother WATERLOO— “No sense in us working hard any more,” John Muckier laughed, “since the Silver Fox (Omaha G.M. Jake Milford) already has the championship sewed un.” Muckier, the general manager of the Iowa Stars, was poking fun at a prediction made by Milford that the Knights were a shoo-in for the Central League title.

Minnesota Favorites In WCHA But Eiaht Teams Eve Playoffs
MINNEAPOLIS— The struggle in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association race is more than just trying to catch Minnesota. It also means getting a good position for the post-season playoffs. Two Western teams and two Eastern teams will meet for the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) championship March 19-2021, and eight of the nine WCHA teams are in position to get shots at the playoffs. The WCHA playoffs will be held at Duluth, Minn., and Denver, Colo., March 12-1314, with four teams at each site.

Clippers Planning Second ‘Palsy’ Game
BALTIMORE— Once again the Baltimore Clippers and one of their chief radio sponsors—the Black and Decker Manufacturing Company of Maryland—are banding together for the benefit of the United Cerebral Palsy of Greater Baltimore, Inc. On Tuesday, March 3, the second annual CP benefit hockey game will be presented at the Clippers’ home rink, the Baltimore Civic Center, when Coach Rudy Migay’s skaters play host to the runaway leaders of the AHL West, the Buffalo Bisons. Last year, the first such benefit game was held here and proved to be a whopping success both artistically, as the Clips won, and financially, as more than $6, 000 was raised in behalf of palsy victims. As with last year, Baltimore Mayor Tommy D’-Alesandro has officially proclaimed March 3 as Cerebral Palsy Day. Approximately 2, 000 tickets for…
