NEW YORK RANGERS, who just a few weeks ago couldn’t buy a win in the National Hockey League are burning up the loop these days.

The New Yorkers went into Montreal on Saturday November 8 with an unimpressive record of only two wins in thirteen starts. They had tied five contests and lost six. Chances of breaking their slump didn‘t appear bright as they took the ice against the Canadians. Twice they-had three-goal bulges on the Stanley Cup leaders and blow them. But they hung on .Iomg-mough to grab a 6-5 verdict and right then and there the victory march was on.

THE NEXT NIGHT they went into Boston Gardens and crushed the faltering Bruins 5-1. Saturday they played hosts to the Bostonians and again beat them 4-2. Sunday they took on the league leading Canadiens and edged the Montrealers 2-1. That made it four victories in four starts and right now the men of Phil Watson are in third place one point back of the Bruins. However, the Rangers have a game in hand on Milt Schmidt‘s gang.

TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS forgot entirely about their Satur- day supremacy when Detmit Red Wings visited there this past weekend. In the two previous meetings between these clubs, the Wings had not been able to even make the red light glow. On October 25 in Toronto the Leafs had blanked the Red Wings 3-0. A week ago last Sunday Billy Reay's outfit hung a 2-0 blank- ing on the Detroit club right in their own backyard. On those performances, it didn’t seem likely that the Red Win-gs would be the team to spoil the Saturday night shows at Maple Leaf Gardens.

WELL THE WINGS did turn spoilers and whipped the Leafs 4-1 before a stunned Garden crowd. Detroit played good hockey and Toronto turned in a horrible pent'ormance to lose 'a great chance to close up ground on the Reich Hawks and Red Wings. The next night the Leafs left the comforts of home and invaded Boston Gardens where they were good enough to hold the Bean- towners to a 4-4 tie.

This week the Leafs have two games and both are against the rampaging New York Rangers. Wednesday the clubs tangle in New York and Saturday they renew the feud in Toronto.

The Leafs could be in for a really tough time with Bathgate and company going the way they are. Watson sees a chance to go higher in the standings and the fiery Phil wouldn't want an outfit like the Maple Leafs to be stumbling blocks.

But then hockey games don’t always go the way they are predicted. Every club knows how true that is and Rangers could find the Maple Leafs the toughest customers they’ve encountered for quite some time.

We’ll know better about 11:15 Saturday night how tough those Leafs were.

THE OFFICIAL OPENING of Charlottetown‘s new curling rink is set for Wednesday night, November 26.

The new five-lane rink came about because of the tremen- dous player interest in this great game, an interest that far over- taxed the facilities avaflabble heretofore at the Charlottetown Curling Club.

The man who was the driving force behind this project Was Dr. Wen MacDonald, one of the province’s outstanding curlers and several times skip of British Console winners in this province.

Dr. Wen started the new-rink agitation last May and after several meetings, the decision to build was arrived at..Dr. Mac- Donald had associated with him on the building committee Dr. Lem Prowse and Andy Baghall and all three worked their hearts out to make sure that things- would be in readiness for a Novem- ber opening. And they have accomplished just that.

THE OVERALL LENGTH of the new'rink is 1561/2 feet. The width is 80 feet. The ice surface will be flooded by 22,000 watts from 64 hanging type reflectors. The banquet hall wall has been taken out and replaced with a glass wall through which spec- tators may watch the games in progress on the five ice lanes. Additional spectator space is provided on the east and north ends of the rink. ‘

With these splendid new facilities, the Charlottetown Curling Club should surpass all previous seasons in the way of providing curlers with the maximum of enjoyment. Nothing has been spared to make the new rink the very finest. It will serve more curlers, something that just had to be done when you consider the increased membership each year. New applications for the 1958-59 season have now passed the 80 mark.

Everybody connected with this energetic project deserves the plaudits of every curling fan. It’s a terrific accomplishment and one that stamps the Charlottetown Curling Club as one of the most progressive in the Maritimes.

Here’s wishing the curlers a tremendous season.

THE OTHER DAY we reported in this column that Solly Hen:th had lost personal property (about $150 worth) while his St, Louis Cardinals were beating Japan’s All-Stars.

Well it‘s happened again and this time nearer home.

WINNBPEG (CP) — Winnipeg Blue Bombers worked out. on a snow-packed practice field Mon- day, priming for the second and possibly deciding game of the Western Intenprovincial Football Union final series against Edmon- ton Eskimos.

Bombers scored a 30-7 victory at Edmonton Saturday in the first game of the best-obthree final. The second game is Wednesday night at 8 pm. CST (10 pm. AISTI, and the third, if necessary. 2 pm. Saturday.

Coach Bud Grant's elation at the comparatively easy win was tempered by the doubtful condi- tion of two top bacwielders— speedy Leo Lewis and crash full- back Charlie Shepard.

Lew-is, one of the individual stars of the Winnipeg victory, sc- verely sprained the big toe of his left foot when he fell on a Winni- peg tumble late in the third quar- ter. Shepard tore a muscle on the hip the first time he carried the :ball Saturday.

It's Tough At The Top For Ballymoss

LONDON (A-P)——I-t’s tough at the top—even for a race horse like Ballymoss. ’

The four -year - old American- owned'col't has been variously de- scribed as “great,” “fabulous,” and the “horse of the century."

Now the British flat season has ended and some mild debunking is going on aimed ’1 cutting Ballymoss down to size.

“I cannot rate him (Ballymoss) as highly as Ribot (the Italian thoroughbred) or certain other giants of the past,” commented Tim Nickall-s in The Sprung Life —the bible of British horseracing fans.

Hotspur, the London Daily Tele~ graph's horse racing writer. said he rated Ballymoss an outstand- ingly good footwear-old over 1% miles “but not in the Ribot class."

CHARIDTI‘ETOW‘N GUARDIAN, NOV. 18, 1958.

Ballymoss won £85,1-24 ($238.- 347) this season for his Philadel- phia owner, John McSli-ain—a rec- ord for a European-trained race- horse in one season. Six days ago Ballymoss finished third in the Washington, D.C., International at Laurel, Md. '

Many experts argued that Bal- lymoss’ defeat at Laurel made no difference to his value because that race was decided on a track with sharp bends—entirely differ- ent to tracks on winch Ballymoss has been brought up.

Ballymoss won eight races out of 17. He blossomed into a cham— pion as a four-year—old, winning Europe’s two richest events this season—England’s King George the Sixth and Queen Elizabeth Stakes and the Prix de l'Atrc de

Triomphe.
