Hockey Rangers Fight
To Get Out Of Cellar
In Toronto TussIe
Montreal Team on Spot
In Bottle With Boston;
Detroit, Chicago Idle
By the Associated Press.


With the Detroit Redwings en-
trenched in first place in the Ma
tional Hockey League race for at
least another day, the teams can
concentrate on the other end Of the
standings tonight when the New
York Rangers try to get out of the
cellar and the Montreal Canadiens
try to keep from falling in.
The evenings program includes
only two games, the Boston Bruins
playing at Montreal and the Rang
ers moving in against the Maple
Leafs at Toronto. Both the league
leading Redwings and the second
place Chicago Blackhawks will be
idle.
Detroit's position, two points in
front of Chicago, is secure for the
moment, but Toronto could hop over
the Hawks into second place by
beating the Rangers, since the Leafs
trail the Chicagoans by only a
single point.
In fact, only one point separates
each team from the second position
down to the bottom of the list. That
means that the Rangers. by winning
tonight, could move ahead of the
birthplace Canadiens, provided the
latter should lose to Boston.
BY the same token, Boston could
beat Montreal and replace the Leafs
in third place if Toronto lost. On
the other hand, victories for both
the Canadian clubs would move
them up notch, leaving the Rang
ers in the cellar and the Bruins just
ahead of them.
All teams in the circuit will re-
turn to action tomorrow night. The
Bruins and Rangers will clash at
New York, with Montreal shifting
to Detroit and Toronto moving to
Chicago. There were no games
last night.

Big Links Plants Here
Seen Suitable for
War Purposes
Congressional Reported
Sought as Site for
GirIs' Seminary
BY WALTER McCALLUM.

Questionnaires asking what facili-
ties are available for handling large
groups have been sent to many of
the country clubs around Washing
ton by the military authorities,
which brings up the rumor around
town regarding the Congressional
Country Club and Mount Vernon
Seminary, the latter about to be
taken over by the military.
The rumor, unsubstantiated from
reliable sources, has Mt that the
Mount Vernon people want the ex-
pansive plant at Congressional
Offlcials of the latter club have
heard about the report, but said
they had not been approached off,
cially and did not want to be quoted
as anticipating such approach.
However, 1t is entirely possible
that one or two (maybe more) of
the country clubs around Washing
ton Will be taken over by the Gov
ernment for war purposes. Several
months ago they were asked to list
their facilities, and in view of the
expansion of military facilities
around Washington, it is possible
that some use in military way will
be made of some of the larger
country club plants located on the
rim OF the city.
Hub Of Military Effort.
Washington happens to be the
hub OF the military effort. A lot of
people may not be aware of the
situation, but military expansion
now Is unfolding in and around the
Capital. Training centers and other
military installations are growing.
and the time is short. which makes
1t possible that established buildings
with ample ground facilities may be

the bill, Of course, although this
does not mean that the country
clubs face immediate or even future

possibility is there.
