Tobin tarried long enough ovor a session of. gin rummy with nave (leader Post) Dryburgh to toll him that the contract of Intro (Marvellous) Prystai, Moose Jaw Oanuok 10-year-old, was not for “sale, trade or loan."

Drnll (The Cat) Francis could start as No. 1 goalie for Hawks next fall after a session of hud- dlea with Tiny Thompson to smooth out the rough edges.
