By Guardian's Special Wire) Somewhat battered after their riotous game with Montreal Mar- oons the Bruins of Boston will ma‘: on Canadlehs in National Hoc- key league game Hist Montreal to- night with the prospect of a large crowd out to see Frank Patrick's men in the hope they bring as much action and punch as they showed in Boston. ' Roger Jenkins may not accom- PB-hy the team as he had two fin- Bbrs almost severed in the i935 ed- ition of the Boston Tea Party. All the others will be in the lineup. Canadians are still without George Mantha but will feature Joflre Des- "eld It Yllht wing in his place. The bis fast winger of Saint John Bea- vers last season was recalled from London Tecumsehs to play in to- night's game. With three victories and one tie in their last four games the climb- lng Americans will tangle with Rangers at New York and gim- toppling Maroons and Toronto Maple Leafs are favored to con- tinue their winning streak. In the only other game scheduled Detroit Red Wings meet the Black Hawks at Chicago. .A win for Americans will boost them into second place over the idle Maroons In the League's Can- adian section. Detroit and Rangers are tied for second place in the American section four points be- hind Chicago and they will be bot- tling for the runner-up position tonight while a win for both would out into Chicago's lead. ‘

ITY HOCKEY LEAGUE teams certainly are taking their hockey serious as last night's

rugged battle between Stewart's Bakery and the Superiors attests to. The players were laying it on all evening in no uncertain man- ner and if the handful of fans in attendance were not treated to the best; of hockey they certainly wit- nessed action every minute of the game. . O O O

OMMY MUNNS of the Toronto Globe has the following on the coming Louls-Uzcudun

fight: Every time Joe Louis, who by accepting bouts comparatively frequently has shattered the pre- cedent set by prominent heavy- weights of former years. goes into action boxing interest is revived. The Detroit. youngster will oppose the venerable Psolino Uzcudun at Madison Square Garden next Fri- day night, and, as a consequence, the fans of the mitt game have something about which to gossip in the meantime, even though there appears to be no more than a remote possibility of Louis’ un- defeated record being blemished. , O O O

He never has been knocked out, which is quite a record in it- self for a boxer of his years, but there are many punching bags fi'i many gymnnsiums which haven't been knocked from the chains supporting them yet have been be- labored by countless punches.
