Hockey Fever Rekindled By Leafs
TORONTO— Any notion that hockey interest in Toronto has been killed by the Maple Leafs’ mediocrity in the past few National Hockey League seasons was scuttled completely by the fan response this season, especially in the playoffs. Because of the Maple Leaf revival, demonstrated by their climb from 13th place in the standings to seventh overall this season, their preliminary round elimination of Pittsburgh Penguins and their extension of Philadelphia Flyers to seven games in that controversial quarter-final, the old town was jumping where hockey was concerned. Reaction to the Flyer series with the upheaval over violence, the intervention of Ontario attorneygeneral Roy McMurtry and the criminal charges against four Flyer players, hockey was front-page news during the month of April.

Underdog Spokane Flyers Thrill To Victory Again
SPOKANE— It’s not every day that an American team wins the Allan Cup as the senior amateur champions of Canada, and even though Spokane’s Flyers (formerly Jets) have done it thrice, the joy seemed no less hearty in the dressing room this year than in’70 or’72.
