STRIPPED OF LAST TITLE
The victory stripped the last
title chance from the Detroit team
which last year won both the
United States and M. o. cham
pionships. The Holzbaughs used
center Len Loree and defenseman
Jack Dent of the Windsor Spit
fires, who wreSted The NJ. o. crown
from them last week. But even
with these reinforcements they
were never able to take the lead
before the crowd of 1893.
Led by right wing Walter luke
and left wing Tony Butkovich. who
scored two goals apiece, the In
dams outscored Holzsbaughs 4 to
2 in a big first period. added an
other in the second session and
picked up two more in the third
session. Loree, McKenna and Ele-
Mich got the Holzbaugh markers.
1t can not be said, however. that
the Indians were without expert

Anderson. their sturdiest defense

It's Do or Die for Both
Wings, Rangers Tonight
Goedfellew Plans
To Play; Open
Game Seen
By LEWIS II. WALTER


The Detroit Red Wings get over
the big hump against the New
York Rangers tonight at Olympia
or they pack their bags for Peta-
wawa and Medicine Hat in the
morning. II they lose it will be
the end of the hockey season for
the Wings and the thousands of
DetroiterS who have watched
them fight their way back into the
National Hockey League in this
campaign.
It's the third ana deciding game
of the first round series with the
Stanley Cup defenders. The team
that wins tonight will be favored
to whip the winner of the Mont
real Chicago series in the SEMI
finals.
Detroit won the first game, PA
in overtime, Rangers squared it
Sunday, 81, at New York. Now
the Detroiters are back on home
ice. where they have lost to New
York only once in two seasons. A
crowd of 10000 is expected to see
them go about against the high
powered New Workers tonight.
EBBIE MAY NOT PLAY
Even money and take your pick
is the word today for friendly
wagers, although the professionals
are making it TO ) either way TO
give themselves an edge. This is
despite the fact that Edible Good
fellow, veteran Detroit defense
man, may not play because of an
elbow injury suffered at New
York Sunday night.
If Edible can bend that left
elbow at game time he'll put on
his old No. jersey and skate out
to take his whack at the Colvilles,
the Patricks and shifty Bryan
Hextall and Alex Shibicky, who
have been keeping goalie Johnny
Mowers of Detroit busy. If Edible
can't play his place will be taken
by 180-pound Harold Jackson,
from the indianapolis Capitols,
who replaced Edible for the last
game of the regular season with
Boston.
WILL USE KEN KILREA
| Another reserve from Indian
iapolis is certain to see action. He's
slender Kenny Kilrea, the center
whom the Wings voted to start in
place of Connie Brown as alter
nate.
Regardless of who else takes the
ice, Jack Adams will be placing i
major share of dependence ON one
man, hustling sgd Howe from
Ottawa. Howe is down on the
roster as a left wing, but he is
certain to play more offensive and
defensive hockey than any other
man on the ice, and is cinch bet
to be down on that ice when goalie
John Mowers is smothering the
: puck, at some stage of the battle.
Now. in his seventh year with the
club, Howe is still the Wings high
scorer and the big threat on the
line with Gus Giesebrecht and
iModerc Bruneteau.
Howe is one of the Wings high
est paid players and the 29-year-
old star earns every nickel of his
bonus. He proved it in his last
game with the Rangers when
Adams used him on power plays,
again when the club was short
handed and then sent him on in
his regular turn. Sydney's tongue

Another Hot Match

With Williams and DiMaggio grab
bing off most of the wild laurel
sprigs in the American league, you
can look for another hot scramble
in the N. L. between Pete Reiser OF
the Dodgers and Johnny Mize of the
Cardinals.
It might interest you to know, If
you care for the succulent statistics
in baseball, that Johnny Mics five
year average with the Cardinals is
now 1889 up through l940-just four
points below DiMaggio's mark for
the same span.
Big John is one Of the top hitters
of his time. Ball players through
the South this last spring all picked
him as the best hitter in the older
league. Mize halls from Demarest,
Ca, not SO far away from Royston
where Ty Cobb spent his younger
years. Ever notice how most Of the
top ones come from the unsung
hamlets-not from the big towns?)
Mize has freshman challenger in
Brooklyn's Pete Reiser, who in his
first year on big time has been
whacking away between .So0 and
$40 most of the season.
Pete Reiser is the ball player
named by Leo Durocher as the
next Ty Cobb-provided there will
ever be another Ty Cobb. Reiser is
l85 pounds Of speed, power, head
and heart" according to Durocher's
estimate.
Reiser is now just 81. Don't for
get that when Tyrus Raymond was
a Tiger debutante he batted 1922.
But from there on he finished with
a lifetime average of 1867 for "a
years-and that, my fellow country
men, is something to shoot at.
But for all that, the stretch duels
between Williams and DiMaggio,
Mize and Reiser, will add consid-
erably to the general public interest
in both races. Suppose someone
else beats them out? What Of it?
They are still the four best hitters
in the two big leagues over . period
