TORONTO (CPI -Riissiais bark is bigger than her but: as far as Greg Currie is conccrncti.

The 39-year-old coach of Tor- onto's East York Canadian represeritutive in the 1954 world hockey cliampionships in Stockholm Feb. '.!6-March 7, said in an interview Monday hi: is tak- ing the reports of the purported strength of Russia's team gram of salt."

"We havcnlt seen them play and they havt-n't sci-ii us. but I can tell you they aren't coin; to show us anything new. I think our team will take the title."

In Moscow, Rudolf Putte Kock. president of the Swedish AIK Sports Association, said Russ.n. which bvgllll playing hockey only seven years ago, appc:t1's to have mastered the sport "rind the day has passed when Canada could send a scrub team to Europe confident. that it would be good enough to

win...Thcy1s better send a stroiiul

A team if they want to win.”

Currie pointed to his club's rc- cord in the Ontario Hockey As- sociation senior B loop this year. In 22 games. it has won 17. lost five and has scored 180 goals-an average of 73 goals a frame-ivliich Currie says is more than any other club in Canada has lone in a simi- lar number of gamcs.

Currie. coach of Lyndhursts the last three seasons, said reports he has received from Europe indicate that Canadals main opposition will come from the Sllfdlsh National team, 1953 titleholrlers. Canada did not send a team last ycar.

Gus Dorais Dies in Michigan

BIRMINGHAM, Mich. (AP) - Charles 1!. "Gus" Doraia. 62, whose "revolutionary" forward passing ehsngad the game of football and started Notre Dame on the path to gridiron greatness, died Sunday.

It was Dorals and the immortal Knute Rockne who discovered in 1913 the .forwe.N! pan could be used as a lethal weapon il football warfare.

They came east in 1913 with Notre Dame. a comparatively un- known midwestern school, to en- gage a powerful Army team. It was supposed to be nothing more than a warmup for the cadets.

But when the afternoon sun had settled behind the plains of West Point. Army was it soundly beaten team by the score of 35-13-and the entire football world was talk- ing about Dorais and Rockne.

The forward pass had been used before this game-but the ball was thrown in an underhand method. Nobody had ever seen the likes of Dorais' long, arching overhand
