between Staff of and Hap Ktnius of Flyers over whether or not the Flyers will play Sunday hockey at Maple Leaf Gardens has been down on the Gardens and Leafs for a good many years so that despite all the hullabaloo theres a lot of feu din and fuss in un derneath Resides which not playing Sunday hockey gives the Flyers a break by way of rests and of ten avoids two games in a row Cant particularly blame for hollering since Sunday sports are in Toronto and ac tually the morals in arent any purer than in Toronto Running a junior club costs dough and have plenty of opposition most nights in Toronto by way of other attractions and theres no doubt about it that the Flyers- are the top drawing card of the circuit and the fans follow their team better than all the rest The turnstiles at
