TORONTO, April 6-1nabillty OF
the Toronto Maple Leafs to cash In
on Detroit's penalties was one OF
the most noticeable Of the Leafs
weaknesses in the first game Of the
Stanley Cup final Saturday.
And according to the Detroit
players, it wasn't even tough keeping
the Toronto players away from
Goalie Johnny Mowers during those
short hand periods.
One Detroit player, discussing
five-minute sentence drawn by
Jimmy Orlando in the third period.
said: TT was one of the softest pen
alties we've had all winter.
Later in the third period the
Wings lost Eddie Bush for minor
penalty. Again the Leafs couldn't t
get within range. Detroit deserved
its 80 victory on those penalty
killing plays alone.
Toronto officials deplored the type
of play with which the Leafs were
beaten. Maj. Conn Smythe, former
general manager of the Toronto
Club, now on active service, said
I'VE were up against the gashouse
gang" and Coach Hap Day said
THAT wasn't hockey out there; 1t
was a fair display of hoodlumism."
But those remarks couldn't sour
the taste for victory for Jack Adams.
the Detroit manager.
Full Of fight, that's our team"
he said. Johnny Mowers played
one of his best games for us. We
had good defense and our forwards
did a great job on that line of Apps,
Drillon and Metz. Remember what
I told you about Don Crosse and
Sid Abel? Two of the best forwards
in hockey today. No question about
it. They're the sparkplugs OF our

10Th Among Top Seven
Money Winners During
Winter Campaign
BY ROMNEY WHEELER,

AUGUSTA, Ga, April 6-Never
newcomer has won the 9-year-old
Augusta masters golf tournament,
but a couple Of youngsters may give
this years field run for the crown,
If not score an unprecedented upset.
The Johnny y-come latelys are
smooth-swinging Chandler Harper
of Portsmouth, Va, and Smiling
Chick Harbert, the skinny shot
maker from Battle Creek, Mich. Both
got their bids to the tourney, April
9-12 just week ago, as the two
professionals previously unqualified
who compiled the best record on the
winter P. G. A. circuit.
Both rank among the first seven
money winners for the winter tour,
and both have been firing top
tournament golf.
Nor are they afraid of big league
competition Harbert startled the
headliners at Beaumont, Tex, by
taking first money, repeated on the
swing east by winning the Texas
Open at. San Antonio in a playoff
with Ben Hogan. He tied with Law
son Little for third in the Los
Angeles Open and finished out Of the
money only thrice in 13 starts.
Harper, son of a wealthy Ports
mouth family. turned pro in 1895
after spectacular amateur play. To-
day, Horton Smith calls his game
"among the best in professional golf"
He withdrew from the $4,000
Miami Open after a disappointing
start and skipped the Beaumont
and Harlingen, Tex, Opens. Then
he placed sixth at Los Angeles and
has finished in the money in every
tourney since.
Short odds in the masters tourney
win be Ben Hogan, who won at
San Francisco, Los Angeles, Pine
hurst and ASheville; Sam Snead,
second to Hogan in money winning
and top money winner at st. Peters
burg and at st. Augustine, and De-
Tending Champion Craig Wood.
