Joyai‘s slap shot from near the blue line glanced off Boston goalie Ed Johnston's stick and went into the upper right hand corner of the net.

Gordie Howe put Detroit ahead midway in the first pe- riod when he scored his 600th career goal. Howe has scored 552 goals in the regular season play and 48 more in the Stanley Cup playoffs. Former Montrea’. player Maurice (Rocket) Rich- ard holds e career scoring mark with 626 goals.

Hawk goalie Glen Hall made .28 saves in recording his fifth lshutout of the year 4‘ He was particularly tough in ‘the second period when the ‘hardworking Leafs dominated lpiay. Four of the shutouts have come against the Leafs. Wharram opened the scoring with his 19th goal of the year with only 30 seconds gone in the game when he swept behind the Toronto net after taking a shot from ce re ice ‘and batted in his own rebound which Leafs netminder Johnny Bower had tipped into the air. ‘ Wharram came up with his second marker at 7:19 when he took a pass from Mikita and beat Bower with a 15-foot screened shot.

Mikita's two points kept him in a tie with Moiitreal’s Jean ;Beliveau at 48 points for the ‘league's point lead. Bcliveau scored a goal and an assist dur- ing the Canadiens' victory.

The game, the first since the -two teams staged their brawl in Toronto Dec. 7 which resulted in nearly $5,000 in fines, was unusually tame.

Referee Frank Udvari, who also had officiated at the Dec. 7 game. called only three minor penalties all night.
