The season before last Sid Smith was one of the top scorers in the entire league, caught an all-star berth with his outstanding performance. Then last year, at about this point, the word came down from the MLG ivory tower that "Smitty" had been named team captain. From then on, he had the worst season he's ever had since turning professional and goals were as scarce as hen's teeth. This year, the Toronto bosses have apparently not let the matter of goal-scoring enter into their choice of a team cap- tain. Yesterday they named Jimmy Th star def an of the club, their new captain.. At 29, Thomson is the only survive ing 'veteran' of the 1946-47 Stanley Cup team and is starting his 12th seaeson with leafs. He has scored 15 goals in 655 league games and scored twice in 69 playoff games.. Not an impressive scoring record but Thomson does his best impressing on defense and many feel that the choice is an excellent one and that he'l make a real leader for the up-and=toming youngsters with which this year's Toronto "Crew Cuts' are staffed. THE TUMULT and the shouting has died away in New York and the gloom of despair and defeat is gradually leaving Brooklyn again. Casey Stengel is in print with the statement that the Yankees will be stronger than ever in 1967 and after recalling how three young pitchers came through for him in the recent world series, who can argue the point. Out of Brooklyn comes word that the Dodgers have left for Japan. And Don Newcombe was on the plane. He visited the magistrate's court before going to the airport, and got his assault charge case set over until Nov. 19--after he gets back from Japan, He stated that he really didn't "disappear" Wednesday night--just stayed at home, out of sight and his wife ® told reporters he had disappeared. Only "regular" members of the Brooklyn team not making the trip are Sal Maglie, Carl Furillo, Sandy Amoros and infielder Charley Neal. First bit of "Hot Stove League' baseball news to break into the headlines is out of Chicago, where Mr. Wrigley's Chicago Cubs front office has had a house-cleani M Stanley Hack, director of player personnel Wid Mathews and business manager Jim Gallagher have all "resigned". Charley Grimm and John Holland have been made new vice-presidents of the club. The picture now appears to be that Holland will run the front office and that Bob Scheffing, manager of the Los Angeles farm team in the Pacific Coast League this year, will be named the new team manager of the Cubs--probably today. At any rate, the Cubs can be expected to go after some player strength as well as making the changes "upstairs" because they don't like that National League cellar position. SPORT BITS: The NHL Board of Governors have appointed Dick Irvin as a good-will ambassador for hockey in general and the NHL im particular. This is a fine move, good for Irvin and smart for the league, for the 64-year-old veteran, if his health permits, can still do a lot for the game, even though he has been forced to resign as coach of Chicago Black Hawks, because of failing health . . | HARRY LUMLEY has come to terms with Chicago's Tommy Ivan and yesterday signed a contract to tend goal for the Buffalo Bisons in the AHL, while Al Rollins carries on in the nets for the Black Hawks . . . SAM ETCHEVERRY, star quarterback of Montreal Al- ouettes, may miss his first game Saturday since he joined the Alouettes, 69 games ago in 1952. He has a bad knee injury that has not responded as quickly as Sam would like and the club doctor may veto his playing against Argos tomorrow. * | penalty " | | The three Wing goals were Ullman | {took a pass from right winger| |Gordie Howe in the second period NHL UNDER WAY ing of temporary club house.

"Toronto Leafs Tie Bruins; ' Red Wings Beat Chihawks By THE CANADIAN PRESS The National Hockey League got started on another 70-game sched- ule Thursday night and there was no inkling of any surprises for the 1956-57 campaign. Detroit Red Wings, expected to be among the top three when things wind up next spring, spotted an early goal to Chicago Black Hawks and rallied in the last two periods to take a 3-1 de- cision. Such power was not sur- prising. The Wings have had it for years In Boston, Toronto Maple Leafs drove from behind four times be- fore they ended with a 4-4 tie against the Bruins. Neither team showed exceptional class. | The experts won't get a chance to appraise all six clubs for an- other two weeks or so. But the way it stands now Montreal Cana- diens, defending Stanley Cup champions, should take first spot. {The Wings and New York Ran- gers probably will battle for sec- ond place with the other clubs scrambling for what positions are left. {HAWKS SCORE FIRST | Detroit grabbed its victory on {goals by Norm Ullman, Metro | Prystai and Ted Lindsay.

It will be his job to boost hockey in general and the NHL in par- feuiar Dependent upon his future health, Irvin likely will make public speeches, appear on tele- vision and radio and conduct schools for coaches across Can- ada. ; : Irvin's retirement as an active coach was announced Sept. 30 from the St. Catharines training camp of the Chicago Black Hawks. It marked the end of 46 years in hockey : : At his home Thursday Irvin said he was highly pleased with his appointment and was grateful to the NHL for an opportunity to continue in hockey.
