times, have complained
loudly about the number of tic
games played in the circuit,
would have few objections If all
of this seasons 81 drawn battles
were like the ones between the
Toronto Maple Leafs and New
York Rangers.
These clubs, finalists in the Stanley
Cup play-offs last Spring and pros
pective rivals this season, have clashed
four times and tied three Of the
games. But those three draws were
listed among the most exciting games
seen in New York during the CAM
paign.
Their third tie, which ended with
a SIS score last night, might be called
the seasons superlative game. 1t
drew about the biggest and probably
the noisicst crowd Of the season, some
6OO0 fans who hoWled themselves
hoarse before it was over. And only
in the last few minutes of overtime
did the teams slow up nOticeaoly.
First Toronto got the Jump and
rang up three goals almost before the
Rangers knew what was going on.
Then the Rangers, opening a daring
attack, came back into the picture
with a couple of second period goals
and tied the score with two more in
the third.
The Leafs, refusing to be checked
by this surprise, got another goal only
to lose their margin again a couple
Of minutes before the finish.
King Clancy of Toronto and Earl
Seibert of New York, put on a lively
fist fight at the start Of the third

Bunny Cook Of the Rangers and

scoring with two goals apiece and
Cook did even better when he paved
the way for two more counters.

Merritt, right III the heart OF that
city.
These birds seem to realize that
they are safe on the area the city has
provided for them. They become
tame and accustomed to the hustle
Of every day life. They may be viewed
at close range, seemingly obliviouS OF
nearby human beings or passing auto
mobiles. Hundreds of these birds be-
come so tame, it is said, that they
remain the year round. rearing their
young and just having a good time
in general.
"HIS is the kind of refuge the
National Capital will have if the
efforts of the director of Ma
tional Parks and Reservations are
successful. Reaches Run, lying just
east of the railroad bridge to the
south across the Potomac, and right
along the new Mount Vernon Boule-
ward, has been selected for wild
fowl refuge. Within the last two
weeks several hundred Canvasbacks
and other ducks were brought up from
tIIC oUulIl AL IdI sc SldCSo. 4lt9C
birds were liberated, their wings
we're clipped. depriving them of their
means of flight.
Last Sunday We observed many Of
them swimming majestically around
over these quiet waters. 1t will not
be long before they are tanned and
accustomed to the noise of automO-
biles. trains and airplanes. Then
when the wild fowl commence to go
North in the Spring. perhaps a lot of
others will be attracted to this refuge,
and in the course of a few years we
will have in or close to the Capital
wild life bird refuge with not only
ducks, but swans. geese, herons and
many other species of feathered life.
And these birds will form a most in
teresting population on the National
Capitals wild life refuge.

POLICE SEEKING
MAKER or CAGE
IN ROBES CASE
Latest Kidnapping Suspect
AbSoIVed ~ June;
Pit Studied.

BIZ Omitted Press
TUCSON, Ariz., May. 19.-Detec-
tives searched local machine shops
today for a mechanic who built a
corrugated-iron cage in which little
June Robes was found chained
nineteen days after she was kid
mapped.
Only a mechanic or welder, skilled
in the art of handling ball hammer
and late, could have constructed
the torture chamber, authorities
we're convinced. With no available
suspects at hanG. they inStigated
hunt TO rthe builder. believing he
either was involved directly in the
kidnapping or could shed some light
on the anonymity of the kidnapers.
The metal box. which was sunk
in shallow pit in the desert nine
miles from here. was eXpertly fash
toned and constructed. Strips of
sheet iron were cut to fit the sides
and ends snugly. Nails were pound
ed deeply into the seams with a
ball hammer, a tool difficult to
handle except by skilled hand.
June was released from the cruel
torture box Monday night. An ankle
chain bound her fast The only
ventilation was from a small open
ing at the top which was lightly
screened by cactus and mesquite.
Hope of an early solution of the
case faded late yesterday when June
absolved the latest suspect, a dude
rancher. He was released when he
explained his recent movements
and June declared he was not the
man who kidnapped her April Is as
she was walking home from school.
Federal experts continued their
tests of fingerprints found on the
iron cage and on food containers
discovered in the shallow pit. This
phase of the investigation was eX-
pected to require another twenty
four hours before it could be deter
mined if the prints are likely to lead
to an early arrest.
