TUE BARR EXAMBER SATURDAYHARCH 192 By STEVE JONESCU Sports Editor ABOUT HULL AND GOALS Facts and figures on how Bobby Hull scored the goals that put him into the history books wrll un doubtedly popup all through the summer after the Stanley Cup champion is decided So while youre waiting lve got few notes which took about five minutes to gather Such as Hull scored 24 goals in the schedule games in February and March Eight were in losmg causes Four goals came in games that his club Chic ago Black Hawks won by at least fourgoal margin ie 61 and 62 Two came in by at least three goals games the club won And so it goes Official statistics will show that Hull didnt score too many winning goals This and the brief figures above will lead some to assume that Hull wasnt really big man for the Hawks At the same time most of Hulls talliescame early in the game His being absent from the winning goal columns will be more than made up for by the number of times hes scored early got his club off on the right foot or narrowed margins Figures cannot disgute the fact that Hull is great goalgetter And ese figures need not be for just the 196162 season either He scored 31 goals last season and something like 39 or 40 the year before Then too figures such as these might tend to make some feel that Hull is the most valuable player in the league Yet look at the entire season would have to in dicate differently Hull was hot over just one half of the season Fellows like Stan Mikita flashy centre and goaltender Glen Hall have been rocks through 70 games The jist of the soup is that you cant always draw conclusions from black and white figures The inhe tween means so much JUST NOTES Barrie sports types are in three dif ferent centres today Dart throwers are in Oshawa bantam hockeyists are in Peterborough and junior tankard curlers are in Toronto Locally today you can take in the gymnastic competition at Camp Bordens Buell Building and or the Barrie Skating Clubs annual spring carnival

share offensively Fresh from the best season hes ever had in the National Hockey League the impound defenceman is the highest point getter in the Stanley Cup semi final between the Rangers and Toronto Maple Leafs Horton seldom sensational defencernan but always steady one has three pointsa goal and two assistsin Tor ontos two wins in the first two games of the best of seven series in other words

ning their first game on Tor onto ice this season HAS GOOD SLAP SHOT The fivefootlo Horton is double threat If his forwards are in trouble he can ing the puck out of his own end in hurry On power play or in tense offensive he has wicked slap shot from the right point Despite his offensive capa bilities Horton nafive of Cochrane 0nt who spends his time away from hockey as Toronto car dealer has no delt sire to be forward lve never had the slightest wish to be one he said after the Leafs practised Friday Hortons slap shot has de veloped rapidly Not so long ago it would whip in towards the generalrdlrection of the end of the rink but gradually during the season it started whistling towards the netoften the cor nermore often dont actually aim at the corners he said just shoot for the net and hope it hits the corner or somewhere that the goaltender isnt EARNED 38 POINTS Nonetheless he didnt do too badly this season for defence man He got 10 goals and 23 assists many of the latter from
