The coach In question is Clar- ence (Hap) Day of Toronto Maple leafs who started this season with an oddly assorted collection of hoc- key talent-a flock of inexperien- ced rookies and a handful of time- worn veterans-—and painstakingly

welded them into an effective winning combination.

Moreover the team-In second place in the league standings-was good enough to inflict a decisive 5-0 defeat on the leading iontreal Cansdiens last Tuesday night with two of the most dependable veter- 1 ans Bob Davidson and Mel Hill. on the sidelines with injuries.

Ask the tall clean-cut Leaf men- tor for the secret of his success Ir. developing young players into top-notch performers and he ex- plains simply: "You have to have goon material.”

This year he has three newerw ers to N. H. L. ranks who have been prominently mentioned as candi- dates for the Calder rookie tropbp ——defenceman Elwin Morris of To- ronto, centre Gus Bodnor of P‘ort William and Ted (Teeter) Kenne- dy of Port Colborne who played both centre and right wing.

Lamotta Takes i Decision From ,[ Fritzie Zivic

DETROIT. Jan. 14—lAPl-Jake Lsmotta of New York punched out another victory tonight over form- er welterweight champion I-"ritzie Zivic of Pittsburgh, taking a 8 to 1 edge in their series. Lamotta, big- ger and younger, finished strong to gain the 10-round decision.

Lamotta weighed 150. Zivic 15l-

The decision of Referee ' Sam Henncsscy and the judges was un- animous. but there was consider- able dlssrmsion from the 10,834 fans who paid $29,274 for match- maker Nick Londes’ card at Olym- pia Stadium. There was no knock- down

La Motta lost the second and fourth rounds because of low punching. but after the fourth he had almost a clean sweep on offi- cial score cards. Zivic seemingly was headed for a knockout defeat in the seventh and" eighth but he rallied magnificently In a swinging 10th.

Coaching methods have chang- ed with the change In the style of hockey, Day mused in an Interview with TbrCansdian Press. »

"You used to coach a wing to play n wing. a centre to may a centre or a line to play a I e. Now you coach the team to work as a team. I, believe in having a team practice to meet the conditions it will have to encounter during :4 game. In the old days a forward line would practice rushing agains: the defence and the goalie. That's how hockey was played then.

"Now we scrimmage in practice and the player; must learn to func- tion as a unit."

Ask Day what he thinks of his club's chances to win the Stanley Cuu and he comes up with an oblique reply which boils down to

this: If your goaltending is hot, anything can happen." That indi- cates he Is counting heavily on Paul Bibeault. formerly of Mon- treal Canadians, who has been with. Leafs (or the last seven games. They won five of those. two by shuwuts.

This is the 42-year-old Day's fourth season as s coach of tie Leafs. with whom he played . a defenceman for i3 seasons starting in December. 1924. when “Charlie Querrie convinced me I could make more money playing pro hockey than working in a department store drug counter during the Christmas holidays."

Baseball bulks large in his cor- responde with fans in the ann- ed services, including his son, Lleut. John J. Evers, Jr., in thc South Pacific.

The elder Byers adds daily to his 50-pound scrapbook for old- tlrners still argue In print about the famous game sept, 2a, 190e, when he caught Fred Merkle away off base. Merkle hurried to the club house without touching sec- ond aftrl- Moosie McCormick had scored the run that would have put the Giants shear‘. 2-1, and giv- en the-m the championship.

The set-up found Dyers awake. Calling for the ball, he souirmed his way to second through a crowd of chccrlng Giant fans, and as Umpire Hank O’Day promptly called Merkle out. the fans turned on Evers. who was es- corted from the park by police. H15 decision left the Giants nnd Cubs in a tie on the final clay n the season.

The Jingle "Tlnkers-tn-Evers-to Chance" immortalized the trio which on Oct. B. defeated the mighty Christy Mathewson to win the play-off and the National Pennant. 4-2.

The triumvirate formed the Cubs’ rigid front line for 10 years. even though Joe Tinker and Evers didn't speak for two of them.

Now as then. baseball comes first with Evers. football second. with Notre Dame his “home" team and boxing a close third.
