INSIDE HOCKEY
New NHL Look • With 10 of the 14 National Hockey League governors already in agreement that four four-team divisions is the best way of handling the NHL’s third expansion program, it is pretty certain the format will go through. NHL President Clarence Campbell declared that the governors have until the All Star game break Jan. 24-25 in Minnesota to make up their minds what system they want. If they concur, then the league will move swiftly toward a new playoff plan which will allow the top two teams in each of the four divisions to meet in the postseason playoff round.

BOSTON— The Boston Braves continued to spell box office magic for the American Hockey League. The runaway Braves, holding a commanding six-point lead in the AHL’s East Division race, dumped the Providence Reds 3-0 for their eighth, straight home ice victory while a record crowd of 14,031 watched in the Boston Garden.

In goal, Dan Bouchard was superb as he hung up his second shutout…
NHL Clubs Attend Bauer’s Seminars
KITCHENER— Changes in sport medicine and training methods occur so rapidlj’ that trainers in all sports must jump to stay on top of all the latest developments. Bauer Skates, through their NHL Trainers’ Advisory Council, helps hockey personnel in this matter by sponsoring training seminars such as the one held this year at the University of Waterloo. NHL trainers who attended included: Ken Carson (Pittsburgh), Barry Keast (California), Lefty Wilson (Detroit), Skip Thayer (Chicago), Frank Lewis (Philadelphia), Joe Sgro (Toronto Maple Leafs), Norm Mackie (Los Angeles), Bill Gray (Vancouver), Frank Christie (Buffalo), Frank Paice (New York),, and Stan Waylett (Minnesota). The major feature of the two-day event was a demonstration of how the combination of heat and humidity—a common problem in the league these days—can effect a players’ performance. In the above photo, the…
