Windsor, Jan. 17--(CP)--Listen to a hockey goaltender being inter- viewed over the air and odds are that one sure question will be: "Who do you. find the most dangerous forward in the Lague?" If Harry Lumley, Detroit Red Wings netminder, has his way, how- ever, they'll be asking the forwards: "Who do you think is the most dan- gerous goalie in the League/" The answer will invariably be Harry Lumley. Doug (Windsor ar) Vaughan suggests that any National Hockey League forward will "tell you that you are asking for a stiff body Jolt or a rap on the noggin if you dare to invade Mr. Lumley's 'home,' meaning the goal crease." "Currently the Red Wing twine tender is the leading bad man among -all the goalies in the N.H.L. He has drawn four minor penalties for a total of eight minutes. Record . Breaker "Continuing at his present pace," Vaughan opines, "Lumley could set a modern record for penalties hand- ed out to goalies during the course of a season." The robust 200-pounder from Ow- en Sound, who has four years in the Majors behind him although only 21, can't resist the urge to get into virtually every brawl that takes place on the ice. . Vaughan records how Lumley complained that goaltenders don't get enough action. "The defencemen and the for- wards have all the fun," he was quoted as saying. "They can hit and get hit but us poor goalies are on the receiving end all the time." Goalie Meets Goalie Vaughan recalls one free-for-all at the Olympia when Lumley ska- ted the length of the' ice looking for a tussle. "He triéd in vain to horn in on several slugfests but finally had to settle on the rival goalie, Turk Bro- da of Toronto Maple Leafs. "Lumley, despite the burden of 38 pounds of goal-tending equip- ment, took off in a swan dive that brought the Toronto Goalie down and ended up with the two of them rolling on the ice like a couple of grizzly bears." Grant Watson's Rink Captures Nipawin 'Spiel Nipawin, 8ask., Jan. 17--(CP) -- The world's richest bonspiel --Nip- awin's $23,000 classic--ended early today with the rink skipped by Winnipeg's Grant Watson winner cf the grand prize of four 1948 au- tomobiles. Officials of the Nipawin Curling Club, sponsors of the nine-day 'spiel, immediately started planning for the third annual event next year, with Draw Secretary Archie Sinclair predicting that the 1949 prize list would be more valuable than ever. In winning this year's final Wat- son took the measure of another Winnipegger, Crawford Hicks, tri- umphing narrowly 10-9 yesterday afternoon in the first of the best- of -three series, then overwhelming the opposition 17-2 in the second game, Playing with Watson were Bill Duncan, of Flin Flon, Man, Dr. C. Dyker of Prince Albert, Sask, and J. Guy of Kenora, Ont, Wrist wat- ches were presented to the losers, with dere for spring delivery of their aitomobiles given to the win- ning rink. Prizes for rinks winning consola- tion events included electric re- frigerators, electric ranges, radios, washing machines, pump guns, tra- velling bags, outboard motors, va- cuum cleaners, cedar chests, sleep- ing bags, tea wagons, morris chairs, suits, overcoats and blankets. Nipawin's 3,300 residents expres- sed general satisfaction today with the Sucoges of the second annual bonspiel / which proved a paying proposition for business establish- ments in this northeastern Saskat- chewan town, with the almost 500 visiting curlers spending from $25- $35 each for food and accommoda- tion, incidentals upping their ex- penditures considerably. UIS IN CHI EXHIBITION Chicago. -- Heavyweight cham- pion Joe Louis will meet Bob Fox- worth, East St. Louis contender for the light-heavyweight crown, in a four-round exhibition match in the Chicago Coliseum, Jan. 29, DOGS HAVE INDIVIDUALITY OFTEN TOO MUCH OF IT --A By JACK WELCH Men who have devoted lifetimes to association with and close study of dogs tell us t, aside from being afflicted wih hydrophobia, which is very rare; canines may insane just as ian beings do, that they nay morons, excep- tionally bright, .or have little quirks of mentality that are all out of line with ordinary dog behavior. .In other words, dogs are as indi- vidualistic as persons, and if you are to get the best out of them as companions or hunters those indi- vidual traits' must be taken into consideration. Like Running Away One rather commonplace char- acteristic of some dogs is a desire to run away. I once owned an Airedale whose sole ambition was to get away from home, though he appazesily had no specific destina- tion in mind. He was treated well, fed well and given plenty of op- rtunity. for exercise, but he still of some canine Utopia 'and bent every energy to attain it. He'd sneak out of the yard, be- Hieving himself unobserved, then when a block away streak out for nowhere. Finally he wound up on a farm some 10 miles away. The farmer phoned me and asked if he could keep his uninvited guest. it was announced. 1 assented, but warned him it would be impossible. "He loves the sheep and other animals," the farmer said, "he'll stay here." But a few days later Nibs was gone and he never -has reappeared... You can't do much with a dog like that. Then there was a Great Dane, Captain I, very amiable except when stretched out on an old davenport, 'Try to remove him and he'd bare his teeth and growl no uncertain warning. Out in the yard he'd greet strangers joyously. Captain II, a Labrador which I own now, has somehow developed an antipathy for telephones. Lift the receiver of a phone and he'll retreat to the basement or else- where. So far as I know he has no unpleasant. associations with phones. He just doesn't like them. Docile Animal Ordinarily the most docile ani- mal extant--children can remove bones from his mouth with im- punity--he's down on the gas com- pany's books as "dangerous," be- cause he's developed a habit, of bristling up and barking savagely at a certain meter reader. He las no reason for it; it's just one of those unaccountable quirks of canine Zivehology. Otherwise he mikes friends too readily for his own good. a member of the army track team, » 4 : LJ Calif., "Der Bing" was on hand to When the 'second round of the $10,000 Bing Crosby pro radio star tries a few practice shots as some interested pals (leaning on club), Jimmy Demaret and Enrique Congratulations are offered to Australian runner Clarrie Hayes, left, by competitors in an Australian amateur athletic union track meet.

Sport Shorts ; From Britain By MICHAEL O'MARA London, Jan. 16--(CP)--Ireland has never had a pair of brothers capped for both soccer and rugby, but the O'Flanagan boys--Kevin and Michael--may soon earn the distinction. ' Kevin, who starred for London's Arsenal a few seasons back, has amassed seven soccer caps . and earlier this year added a rugger headpiece against a touring Aus- tralian XV. Michael scored two tries, the second one of the most spectacular seen in those parts in some years. He dribbled the ball all the way from mid-field to the goal- line and touched it down as he roll- ed across amid a swarm of tack- lers. - Eire dopesters now predict the O'Flanagans will both be named in the next. international Irish squad, probably one on each wing.

PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE EXPECTS BIG EXPANSION Vancouver, Jan. 17 (CP). --The big news today on the hockey front here still si the decision oi the Pacific Coast Hockey League-- in a move to expand and to retain its leading players--to become the Professional Western Hockey Lea gue with the 1948-49 season's start. President Al Leader says the new status will permit working agreements with clubs in the Na- tional 'and American es. He intimated that most of thé to players now in the circuit wi return next season--under profes- sional contracts. Most of the performers --- now operating tnder "amateur c¢on- tracts which call for from $70 to a league limit of $100. a week-- are under agreement to do their professional hockeying for teams of the N.H.L. and A.H.L. Most coast operators now are expected to affiliate with a "big- time" organization with the idea of becoming a home-owned "farm" of the major group. League directors believe the new status yltimately will give coast cities better hockey and that--not too long from now--the loop, which stretches from Vancouver to San Diego, Calif, will become a threat to the N.H.L. and the AHL, as a _ top professional hockey organization. Meanwhile, the two-division, 10- team circuit is about half-wa through its regular schedule wit! Seattfe Ironmen leading Tacoma Rockets by 14 points in the North- ern Division, and Vancouver Can ucks, New Westminster Royals and Portland Eagles trailing. In the hotly-contested Southerm Division, Los Angeles Monarchs are three points in front of San Francisco Shamrocks and seven up on Fresno Falcons. San Diego Skyhawks and Oakland Oaks bring up the rear. In the Western International' League, the one-time world's ama- teur champions--Kimberley Dyna miters--are far afront the four- team loop with "their old rivals Trail Smoke Eaters, runner-up an Spokane Spartans and elson Maple Leafs trailing.

The Bruins play in two of the week-end's five scheduled games and it's practically a case of how the Bruins go, so go the tattles. For instance, Dit Clapper's gang make their first week-end appear- ance in Toronto against the Maple Leafs.
