Or possibly the North Stars facing off against the Blues? If you're a_ traditionalist, the mind boggles but face it-- it could happen one day. Since nobody has yet stum- bled upon the formula for in- stant tradition, the new teams in the National Hockey League have only color going for them initially and the new team names are colorful: St. Louis Blues, Pittsburgh Penguins, Los Angeles Kings, Minneapolis - St. Paul North Stars, California Seals and Philadelphia Flyers. But how about those old teams, steeped in tradition? Where did their names come from? Why would anybody call a team Toronto Maple Leafs, Detroit Red Wings, Montreal Canadiens, New York Rangers, Boston Bruins or Chicago Black Hawks? The answers are all there in the files. Detroit, originally the Cou- gars, became the Falcons in 1930. James Norris purchased the club in 1933 and wanted to pick out a name reminis- cent of the Montreal AAA Winged Wheelers. He fixed upon the winged wheel, in red, and the Red Wings were born. MOVED BY PATRIOTISM Conn Smythe and a few other young veterans of the First World War bought the Toronto St. Pats in Septem- ber, 1927, and, still fired with patriotism, wanted a name |New NHL Clubs Pick Names, Color Now-Tradition Later symbolizing Canada. The Ma- ple Leafs came into being. New York Rangers are named after that colorful body of Texas lawmen. The name was pinned on them by the late Col. John Hammond as a tribute to Tex Rickard, who reigned over Madison Square Garden. Tex was president of the Garden and Hammond vice-president at the time the team was known as the Blue , Shirts. They resisted the Conn Smythe Offers Kick TORONTO (CP)--A_ veteran hockey man offered a veteran politician a kick. in the pants Tuesday during the hysteria which accompanied the llth Stanley Cup championship by Toronto Maple Leafs. Conn Smythe, 72, the man who built the Maple Leafs, said his target would be Prime Min- ister Pearson, 70. Interviewed on televi- sion, Smythe said that if the prime minister ever again said Canadians lack confidence "I'l kick him in the pants." He elaborated later for re- porters in the din of the team's dressing room: "How dare the prime minis- ter say we have a national in- feriority complex when we have seen a fight such as this? Men of so many origins, French, Ukrainian, Polish, British and the rest, playing great hockey, playing the greatest game of temptation to call the club Tex's Rangers. Bessie' Moss of Montreal was responsible for the Bos- ton team coming out as the Bruins. The late Charles Adams ac- quired the franchise in 1924 and decided brown and gold-- the colors of his supermarket chain--were going onto the sweaters. : "Brown?" Miss Moss said with feminine logic --"Why not call the team the Bru- ins?" Today, the colors are gold, black and white. Nat Dorval organized a club in Montreal in 1909 and wanted a name to epitomize the French - Canadian mys- tique.
