r= bl 7 #Y Mn ° 'MONDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1948 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE ELEVEN 'Montreal Jumps 'To 4th Place Tie = After Weekend By HARRY ECCLES Canadian Press Staff Writer , While Detroit Red Wings, To- fonto Maple Leafs and New York Rangers remained 1-2-3 in the Na- tiorial Hockey League today, the Montreal Canadiens had jumped into a tle with Boston Bruins for place. The Canadiens, showing stronger form in the last few games they had from the start of the sea. son, were back in the thick of con- tention for a play-off spot. All six teams played two games each over the weekend. Toronto Maple Leafs beat Detroit 3-2 Sat- airday night to tie the Wings for the Tead, but the Wings.came back with a 3-0 shut-out over the Leafs at Detroit Sunday to regain their two-pont edge. _ New York Rangers beat Mon- 4-2 Saturday and then were held to a 2-2 tie by the Chicago Black Hawks Sunday night at New York. The Rangers in third place five full games back of Toro Meanwhile Chicago walloped the Bruins 7-4 at Boston Saturday hight, while Canadiens white-wash- ed' the Bruins 3-0 at Boston last night. "The LeafsWings struggle at To- tonto Saturday was notable in that no penalties were given against To- sonto in the entire session. Coach Clarence Day said he thought this is the first time such a thing has happened. Only three penalties were given the Wings Meeker Gets Winner Bill Ezinicki scored for Toronto in the first 20 seconds but Ted Lindsay that one back. Captain qa put Detroit ahead but Lynn -tied it up again in the second perjod. It was Howie Meeker who {fired the winner after 12 min. utes of the last period, getting the puck from Lynn and Ted Kennedy after a scramble. Sugar Jim Henry in the New York Ranger goal starred as Ran- gers beat Canadiens in another Sat- urday game. He made 28 saves against 22 for Bill Durnan in the Montreal net. Elmer Lach opened the scoring for Canadiens and he and Maurice Richard assisted on their second goal scored by Bobby Fillion. Ranger goal-scorers were Tony Leswick, Don Raleigh, Ed Kullman and Phil Watson. Gaye Stewart, traded from To- ronto some months back, had two and two asglsts for the Hawks in their victory over Boston Satur- @ay. Roy Conacher and Gus Bod- mar, another ex-Leaf, also snared $wo goals apiece. Bud Poile got the Chicago goal. Wally Wilson, Gallinger, Clare Martin and ' Babando were the Boston rers.

By HARRY ECCLES Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto, Feb, 2--(CP) -- The suggestion that in modern big- league hockey the goal-keeper is "like an appendix, a useless sur- vival from a period when he had some function," was made last J. V. McAree, veteran editorial page columnist of the Toronto Globe and Mail. It's the Looks of It? The redoibtable McAree is a pigeon fancier of note, and admits he knows less about hockey than about many other things, But he felt impelled to make the declara- tion that s.though the goalie may have a function in hockey, "He is an eye-sore. Hockey players in flight are as pleasant to the eye and as thrilling as ballet dancers. The goal-keeper is never in flight. He performs his most important duties when looking like a man in a diving suit performing the Rus- sian Kazotsky." This aesthetic criticism passed without incident, but when Mr. McAree suggested that the goalie's place could easily be taken by a target which would ring a bell when a goal was scored on it; that was a different matter, This reporter has seen several National Hockey League games at Toronto this winter in which the goalie was just about the most im- portant and effective man on the ice. Knowing what the reaction would be from present-day goalies, or hockey players or managers, for that matter, we got hold of Roy Worters, who made the N.H.L. All-Star, team. as the goal-keeper for New ork Americans in 1931- 32 andvfigain in 1933-34. Worters Doesn't Agree Worters, who hung up his pads in 1937 and now is a scout for To- ronto Maple Leafs, politely inti- mated that anyone suggesting a target instead of a goalie was off hig rocker. orters instanced the last two games that Chicago Black Hawks played in Toronto. Toronto won 6-4 on Dec. 10 and Toronto won again 2-1 on Jan. 24, "Without Turk Broda in the nets, Toronto would have lost both those games, easy," said Worters, "How can anyone say goalies are useless?" And the idea of a target instead of a goalie--phooie! What would happen, Worters pointed out, would be sort of living statue tableaux with teams as- signing one or two men to coveted firing spots, with long shots from all over the rink at the target. At that, the targets probably wouldn't suffer any more than the flesh and blood goalies do today. Eastern Colleges Want New Rules For Rughy In 48 Toronto, Feb. 2--(CP)--Contin- ued co-operation with the Cana- dian Rugby Union was recom- mended Saturday by the Canadian Intercollegiate Union's Rules Com- mittee, which proposed three minor rules changes in football's 1948 playing code. The decisions, rejecting earlier suggestions that the four-team Eastern Canada College Circuit planned to experiment with an Americanized playing code next season, were announced by Dr. H. L. Batstone, retiring chairman, fol- lowing a four-hour closed meeting at Hart House. Remain With C.R.U. Dr, Batstone, Queen's Univer- sity representative on the commit- tee, said delegates were unanimous in their decision to remain affili- ated with the C.R.U. even though the league doesn't take part in dominion playoffs. The recommen- dation was made in the form of a resolution to the union's board of governors, scheduled to meet in March.® The three suggested rules changes, which will be recommend. ed to the C.R.U.'s annual meeting in Toronto Feb, 28 for discussion, are: 1. On a third-down blocked kick, regardless of who recovers, the ball should be awarded to the block- not make yards on the Jay, Under the present rule, if kicking yards, it is awarded the down over with a 10-yard penalty. 'orward Pass 2. The forward pass rule should be amended to award the defendipg side possession at the last point of scrimmage when a third-down pass over the defending team's goal-line is not completed. At present, ne defending side is awarded the bal on their own 26-yard line, 3. All players should be permit- ted to re-enter the game once in any quarter, instead of only two players a side. nk Little, University of Western Ontario's representative on the committee, was named 1948 chairman succeeding Dr. Batstone, who becomes secretary. Ronald Perowne, McGill University repre- sentative, was named vice-chair- man. Others attending the meeting were Dr. A. G.

"I've had enough," sald Stack after finishing 27th in the 1,500- metre event today. "Let the young- er fellows take over from here." Hardy, 38, finished 20th in the 1,500 metres and also said he is skating world's bigtime for years, said he will coach the two other members of Canada's olympic team --Craig Mackay of Saskatoon and Gordon Audley of Winnipeg. Aud- ley was 35th in the 1,500 metres and Mackay, who likes longer distances, did not start. "I've been in the game 28 years and that's too long," Stack said in an interview in the Olympic Stadi- uum dressing room, "Who wants to watch an old guy like myself go- ing around the track?" But the old timer who holds two indoor world records -- the five- mile and the 500-metre -- and who placed sixth in the 500-metre Olym- ple event last week can still show his heels to the youngsters. He led the Canadian Olympic team in the 500 and 1,500-metre events here. Married and with three children, Hardy plans to devote most his time to the contracting business and to teaching speed skating in his na- tive Bdmonton. * : Stack's performances on the ice would almost fill a book. From his first championship tournament when only 14, he has brought high honors to the Dominion, He won the Northwest Indoor and Outdoor championships 28 years ago and since then has skated in various parts of the world. He won two International titles in 1934, placed third in 'the Lake Placid, N.Y., Olympics in 1932 and cleaned up -on practically every American and Canadian title worth taking. His five-mile indoor record of 50:42 set in 1931 and his 500-metre indoor world time of 46 seconds flat, set a year later, still have to be beaten. A.H.L. HOCKEY CHIPS Providence Reds took first place in the race of the Eastern division of the American Hockey League over the week-eid, chalking up two victories to give them a 14-point lead over the second-place New Haven Ramblers who were idle. In Springfield Saturday, the Reds turned aside Indians 6-3 while they dumped Washington 7-5 at home on Sunday. Meanwhile Pittsburgh Hornets kept ahead of the pack in the Western division, downing the se- cond-place Buffalo Bisons 7-5 in their only outing. Bisons came back to defeat Indianapolis 4-2 and stay four points behind the Wasps. Cleveland's red-hot Barons swept a home-and home series with Louis Flyers to move closer to Buf- falo. They won at home 11-4 and in St. Louis 4-1. . In the only other games played, Indiana downed Hershey 4-2 and Philadelphia edged Washing- ton 8-6. : Ab Collings and Art Michalik led the Providence attack seein Springfield, potting a pair of goals each, hs Prokop and Johnny Chad scored the other Providence goals Will Summerhill, Hayden and Paud Courteau tallied for Spring- field.

Chad picked up two while other Red goal-get- ters were Harry Taylor and Prokop, Herb Lovett, with three and Joe Ciuman and Don Slater with one each, were the Lion scorers. Les Costello with three goals paced Pittsburg to & conv \ victory over Buffalo. Fleming Mackell picked up two while one. each went to Johnny Hamilton and Pete Langelle. ' Joe Bell, Doug Le- wis and Paul were the Buffalo scorers. Indian, Buffalo skat. ed off with a 4-2 triumph thanks to the three-goal effort of Murdo Mc- Kay, Joe Bell was the only other Bison player able to find the mark. Jerry svi le and Nicholson ulged the twine for Caps. Cleveland must have St. Louis' number for they came up with their fourth and fifth victories over Fly- ers in as many games. Pete Les- wick was the star on Saturday with three goals while Johnny lota picked up two. The other scorers were Ab DeMarco, Roy Kelly, J ulie Sawchuu! vole and Bob Paul Gladu led the Flyers attack with a brace of tallies while Eddie Olson and Joe Lund scored one each. Last night, Thurier, Holota, Hy Buller and Bob Carse came through with timely goals. after Bill Mec- Comb had given St. Louis an early lead. This goal proved to be St. Louis' last of the game.

Worst Defeat For Barrie The eighth-place Guelph Bilt- mores showed surprising scoring punch with a 9-5 win over Barrie Flyers at Galt, It was the third- place Flyers' worst defeat so far this season but there is little chance of Guelph making the playoffs. Guelph and Barrie were tied 2.2 in the first frame at Galt, Biltmores outscored Flyers 3-2 in the second and wrapped it up with a four-goal splurge in the final session.
