‘King” Clancy WantsiHis Maroons T0l1gh—-Guide3 172cm In Stiff Workouts

v By D. E. BURRJTT Canadian Press Siufl’ Writer

LAKE PLACID. N.Y.. Oct. 21- (ClU-Ensconed in his Adirondack Mountain hideout, ‘The Little King" is quietly banding together the men he will lead this season in quest of National Hockey Lea- gue spoils.

And in the words of King Clancy himself they're going to be a hard-boiled, powerful and tricky outfit. this new machine of the vlrintreal Maroons.

‘ " That's the

way he's train- ing them to be. He wants th em tough. They've gotto be tough, he told them in training camp today, if.t.hey expect to get ' anywh e re against. s uch v promising , outfits asNew . York Rangers and Amerks. CLANCY ' And Clancy tod the boys also they should not. forget that little flock of Redwings from Detroit—-because, they hap- pen in be world champions.

Misses Oonlcher

Coach Clancy admits readily enough he would feel more com- fortable about his lineup if he oould count on old Lionel Coli- ncher being back there on the de- fence. And he would be glad, too, oi’ advice from the deep-voiced counsellor who abandoned hockey for a seat in the Ontario Legislat- lire

"But we'll get along all right," says the King. whose honorary title is acknowledged by everyone in town. even by those who never have seen a hockey game. "We've got lots of material to work with -and don't think it isn't good. Our defence is going to be good. We've got a good goalie in Billie Beveridge. He's looking a lot bet- ter than last year. Carl Voss is the best I've ever seen him. Our forward lines are going to be fast. Altogether. that adds up to a pretty good team. And I think we'll be right in there with the best. Mind you. I don't think there's going to be any walk-a-way this year. There's some pretty lolid looking outfits in there, and to me it looks-as if we're going w have a good season."

All "Regulars" A” on, thing about which the King 1| emphatic-and he's emphatic about plenty~is the idea there are certain regulars on the team.

"Kid" Lulu Wins Decision

Nels Stewart ls H 0 I d 0 u t With _Amerks

(By The Canadian Press)

CALGARY. Oct. 21—The score was one and one for Red Duttun, manager of the Americans in the National Hockey League, today.

Two days ago he had two hold- ouis, Nels Stewart, stalwart centre ice performer, and Dave (Sweeney) Schriner, ‘ last left winger.

Today Stewart remained ahold- out, seeking a higher salary boost than Dutton planned for him, while Schriner had signed on tide dotted line.

"It's Stewart's favorite indoor sport." said the Amerks’ manager. "I am through talking contra/ct to him. His case has been referred to President Frank Calder."

Schrlner. ace pointmaker last season, will receive close to the top salary in the N.I-I.l’..., though Dut- ton refused to name the figure he signed at. The league salary limit is $7.000.

Stewart is attending the Amerks training camp here and is out each

sident Calders decision.

NEW YORK, Oct. ill-Loni Gehrig's announced campaign toi

eclipse some of the marks Babel

Ruth and 'iy Cobb set up for the i record didn't get far during the; i937 season, but it was a bigyear ; for the "iron horse" nevertheless.‘

The Yankees’ lion man first,’ baseman revealed his ambition i after the i936 campaign. Through; the recent season he succeeded. only in wiping out two of thef Bambilios all-time highs, and f tying another.

But he was still the year's lead- i ing record-buster, accounting for; six of the‘ i0 big league marks that 1 were bettered, and one _of the 10 that were equalled.

Three of Ruth's Mark! Fall

All told three of Ruth's records went by the boards. Gehrig bagged the Babel‘. mark for the player driving in 150 or more runs for the most years, tuming the trick for the seventh time in his career. and for the batter hitting for a total of 300 or more bases for the most years. collecting that total for the twelfth time to end a tie with the Babe.

The other Ruthian swat stand- ard to go was shattered by the Tigers‘ rookie walloper, round- house Rudy York, when he clout- ed i8 homers during August, one more than the previous one-month top which Ruth set up during the September of his record-smashing 1927 season.

By scoring 100 or more runs for the twelfth year in his career, Gehrig deadlocked Ruth at the head of the record books. In ad- dition, lamlping Lou stretched his consecutive-game playing record to 1,965 games: Played 150 or more games for the eleventh year in his career for mother new mark; set a new high for 20 homers with the bases loaded during his play- ins career; topped his own mark by scoring 100 or more runs for the twelfth straight year, and broke a tie with Al Simmons for a new mark of l2 year; in a row for driving in 100 or more tallies.
