And that was the pattern the Wings won by in Toronto last Sat- urday night. their superior staying power paying ofl‘ in the last twenty minutes as the Leafs tired visibly from the torrid pace that had been "et. We didn't see the game but n our opinion that is just what .. appened Thursday night and from here it looks like the Leafs will have to resort to three lines oncei more. In recent games they have been using but two sets of forwards endl getting away with it, but in the, last two encounters. no doubt a__~ bout it they have faltercd badly.‘ Of course. this may or may not be the underlying reason for their de-l feats-we cannot judge from this. distance-but rather we are ex- pressing our opinion from the manner in which the "hot stove league" looked at the matter in _the game in Toronto last Saturday night. But anyway the two clubs go ati it again tonight and it should be a real "blood and thunder" battle. Leafs willlikely make a tremend- ous effort to end the series in to- night's game. as they did against, the Canadians. They proved that they can conle back in the semi- finals wllen, after being knocked -3 in Montreal they roared to put the clincher on it by outspeeding the Montreal team in the next game. Such ..lay be the case again to- night. Red Wings are evidently at the pinnacle of their game and those two straight victories are bound to put a lot of extra pep into the squad. They are still on the spot and need at least a draw to prolong the series and send the teams back to Detroit Sunday night for the final test of strength. That is why both teams are like- ly to no all out in tonight's encoun- ter. The Leafs trying to forestall a return engagement in the Motor City and the Wings seeking to even the series, and by so doing have the added advantage of play- ing on home icc in the clash that will decide the Stanley Cup cham- plons. St. Michael's College Majors and Moose Jaw Canucks renew their Memorial Cup series at Toronto tonight with the eastern standard bearers due to their sparkling dis- lay in the third encounter which hey won by a 8-8 score, odds on favorites to chalk up their f-hlfd win and draw to within one game of the championship. During a rmellt address, Frank Boucher, the former New York Ranger star and present coach. gave no hint of any major changes in the current hockey rules. Bou- cllcr. a member cf the N. H.L. Rules Committee. admitted that there was much room 101' 11110111110- ment in the current rules. but from_ his remarks the most tho ordinaryl hockey fan can expect is the can- cellation of the blue lines and tho continuation of the red stripe centre ice. Boucher did-not sllggest that any immediate rule changes are in or- der. but he intimated that the' hockey would be the next step in the lue lines abolition of Frankie. who is the leader in rule changes, isn't convinced that all the possibilities of offensive hockey have been explored. Most persons nowadays criticize the game they offer no really valuable suggestions." Boucher admits llmt the present g team pursue a strictly - fensive system. "Toronto Leafs have shown that. Many say that this ls a rugged and very scrambly type of hockey. but the Leafs are playing a set type of game and no flttlligl‘ team so far has put them off s r e. - Frankie hasn't a great deal of sympathy with Jack Adams‘ opin- ions and accompanying threats as a result oi the way the Leafs hero been playing i? out this series.

OTTAWA, April BO-Bostonu Bill Cowley is back home after his 11th consecutive season of campaigning the National Hockey League with the word that it may have been his last-and then again it may not. Bill wasn't quite sure about his future when he got back yesterday with Bruins’ losing series with De- troit Wings in the N.H. L. play- downs still fresh in his mind. "If I feel the way I do now by the time next year rolls around. I may call it a day,” said the flashy, 36-year-old centre. "But don't for- g it's a long summer and you can't tell what will happen." Bill is a native of Bristol. Que, lwho went to Bruins in 1935 from the St. Louis gles and he's the second big timer from Ottawa to talk about quitting. Syd How. 33. who has been ln the N. H1... 14 seasons and was named left wing on The Canadian Press alternative all-star team this season, has also been reported toying with the idea. While on the subject of retire- ments, Cowley said he wouldn't make a bet that his team-mate- and room-mate of the season-Dit Clapper, would be strictly a coach next year.
