Clanadiens fiave Five Rookies In Lineup _ For Crucial Game Tonight MONTREAL. April 5 —(OP) — Montreal Canadiens. harassed from day to day with the problem of stopping New York Rangers, will have five rookies in the lineup in tomorrow night's fifth game of the best-of-seven Stanley Cup series. Tom Johnson. defenceman from Buffalo Biscns of the American Hockey League, is the latest to get the call. Last night's uprising by Canad- lcm and their 3-2 overtime victory nevertheless left them trailing Rangers 3-1 in games and eased only slightly coach Dick Irvin's dilcmma. ' Coach Lynn Patrick of Rangers ind no aiibis for the loss. “Frankly I thought we were out- Jlayed," said Pitti~ic‘.:. "\‘Ve could ‘iave \\'On the game, I know. es- zecially in the overtime wlirn Buddy O‘Ccnir3r missed when he :ame in alone on goal. But at the some time I don't think we desrrv~ nd to win because we just didn't play well enough." Same Range:-I Lineup Patrick said he plans to dress the some 18 playeis he used in last night's game. Goalie Chuck Rayner. who was out on the upper lip by Doug Harvey's shot and needed three stitches, is okay. the Ranger coach reported, and suffering no ill ef- ‘fects. Patrick mentioned the frantic line juggling at the start of last night's game. Instead of countering the "Penttl Uimd line" with the “R.icha.rd line" as he had in pre- ceding games of the series. coach frvin of Canadiens started his ‘Miosdell line." As soon as the puck was dropped. Patrick made fast changes. Irvin did the same, and in less than two minutes no fewer than four fly- ing changes were made. Patrick finally gave up. "If this series continues until we get what would be our next jhome game.‘ I want to find out my statiis." said. Patrick. “'.lllie visiting coach must declare his lineup first." Rangers’ haven‘t access to Mad- ison square Garden in New York for further games. so their "home games“ hereafter will be played on the apposirig team's ice.. The way the present series was arranged. to give Rangers two games in New York, their next home game would be Satnirday :ntg'ht——the sixth of the series if it goes that far. nvin, showing signs of optinilmi, thought the fight showed by Can- adians last night can carry them is. long way. He discounted any suggestion bliiat theiosswould cause Rangers to crack now. '10.‘. course it could act that way," he said. “but I can't string glong with that theory. That do- rm I-night spin" Rangers to even gremte: efforts. They are a fish?»- ‘ing team. remember. the pressure is still on us. Rangers can afford to lose ii. game. We can't.” McNeil In God Gen-y McNeil. rushed into the goal-tending job. will be back in the nets for Thursday's game. It was goalie Bill Durnan's personal request that brought olboiit the move.

Billy Reay is a playing cripple, able to "skate on one foot." as Irvin put it. Defericeman Hal Laycoe has been used sparingly in the last two games because his mending broken nose still is vulnera.blc. The defence problem prompted Irvin to call up Johnson, a husky 21-year-old youngster wei lng 185 pounds and standing six feet.

Jeers Greet “New look" In , Ball Uniforms ST. PETERSBURG. Fla., April 5—(AP)—Peers drowned out the cheers in a sample poll of major- league opinion on the "new look" in baseball uniforms, introduced at Hollywood. In case you missed the pictures, the new suits. worn in the Paci- fic Coast League, are abbreviated. basketball style pants and short-sleeve rayon shirt on days and humid nights. Casey Stengei. Yank manager and former coast leaguer, has a definite opinion. "You can say for me," said Casey "that Mr. Collins ( pro- sldent) should wear one greeting guests at his Brown Derby. And I-‘red Haney (manage ) had better take in few pounds off that stom- ach, or forget it." Rowdy Dick Bai-tell. one of the old guard. now a Detroit coach. didn't think much of the new suit. ‘'11’: not practical." nld Bsrtell. “h%w are you going to slide?

"you could even pitch in a bathing suit at Washington some of those nllhll-" ‘ .They were not by any means line x . Many fans were asking yesterday "what happened to the Borden Nationals, Island Intermediate Hockey champions. at saint An» dreivs this week? Were the saint Andrews Senators so much better than the Island champs to beat them by such terrific scores in the two game series?" well. this col- umn doesn't know the answers to these questions either. and zil- though it is hard to believe that the New Brunswick champions are that strong. the scores of bum games will have to tell their own story, as we were not there to see what happened. 0 I C It was certainly is landslide ser- ies victory for the New Brunswick pucksters when they copped off the opening game of the two-game. total goal series by a 15-2 count on Monday night and came back even stronger the following night to trample Borden under a. 19-4 shell- acking to take the round by a lap- sided 34-6 score. which sounds more like basketballthan hockey. Whether or not Borden had just gone into a bad slump during tire series, or that Saint Andrews VJ.-J8 just that much better we do not know, but in any case they lost, and lost badly, which shows tliat the Island Intermediate division has a long way to go yet before they can expect to meet the stan- dsrd of hockey being played at other points in the Marltimes. The heating: ‘however, doesn't detract from the fine performance that the Borden aggregation turn- ed in this season in Island play. only Provincial team that has gone down to defeat at the hands of Mainland teams in playoff compe- tition this year. The Junior, Inter- collegiate and Juvenile ranks also were stopped in N. B.-P. E. I. play- offs, and at the moment. everyone is pinning their hopes on the sum- merslde Kinsmen Midgets to come through with the Maritime title, to save the Province from a. com- pletely “l.ough" year in outside the Province play. 0 O The Xinsnien youngsters have already made 3 strong showing this season by walking off with the Provincial title and the N.B.-P.- ELI. Juvenile Hockey crown. cap- turlng the latter title from the Moncton East-End Beaver Midgets . ... Blamed by Wings for the‘flrst- game injury to Gordie Howe, Tor- onto Maple Leafs captain Ted Kennedy was a marked man in the second semi-final playoff game in the N. H. L. The game was mark- in a sudden death game at Mone- ton a. week ago Wednesday by ii. 5-4 count. It was the second year in a row for the western capital Midgets to capture the two-Provl ince title. They will journey to steilarton today by plane where they will meet Truro Midgets, Novs Scotls. champions. for the Morb- timc title. and there is no need to say that fans all over the Province will be rooting for the Kinsmen to bring home the bacon. I B O This column would like to ex- tend its congratulations to Gordie Kelly of Charlottetown, now resul- mg in summerside, for being chos- on as the most valuable player on the Summerside Crystal hockey team, runners-up for the Island Intermediate Hockey championship.

April 5—(CP)-— The confident Detroit Red Wings call- ed.up three players from their Omaha farm club today as they came home for tomorrow night‘: fifth same of their best-of-seven Stanley Cup final with Toronto Maple Leafs. - The optimism In the Detroit camp springs from their 2-1 vic- tory at Toronto last night after 20 minutes and 38 seconds of over- time. it tied up the series at two games each. “As far as we are concerned. the series now is a best-of-three affair_ and we have an edge since two, of these femaining three games could be played on Detroit ice." said a club spokesman. The three players called up from may see action tomorrow night. Right winger Gordon I-Isidy. who played in Toronto last night, was sent back to his Indianapolis club in the American Hockey League today. Jimmy Peters. a Red Wing reg- ular. is still laid up with 'a sore knee which kept him idle last night. Star right-winger Gordon I-Iowa is still in hospital with a head injury suffered in the open- ing game of the series. Except for the series opener. which the Leafs won 5-0. each game has been a typically close playoff struggle. The Wings took a 3-1 verdict in thesecond and the Leafs won the third 2-0. The Wings have scored only five goals on Toronto’: Turk Broda in four games. an average of 1.25 a game. Goalie Harry Lumiay has I goals- aulnlt oversize of 2.25. -with him getting past him. .
