Lead All Game
Boston Goahe Stars
With 81 Saves TO Keep
Score Within Reason
By LEWIS II. WALTER

If YOU give odds today that the
Detroit Red Wings 60 at least into
the second round Of the Stanley
Cup playoffs, you'll be betting
right along with Frank Brimsek
of the Boston Bruins. one OF
hoCkey's greatest goaltenders.
And IF you bet Detroit reaches
the finals you'll be right along
with the Wings themselves. who
have beaten the three leading
teams. New York, Toronto and
Boston. in recent battles.
BrmSek is betting 2 TO / with
Harvey (BuSher) jackson. one OF
his teammates. that the Wings get
in there. And his judgment Is
based on what he underwent last
night at Olympia when he made
50 saves and still saw the Wings
flash the red light three times
for a 81 victory before S,464 fans.
BRIMSEK MAGNIFICENT
Brimsek earned cheers for his
magnificent goaltending He saved
innumerable times on what looked
like certain goals as the peak-form
Wings buzZed around him for the
victory that clinched them play
off berth.
II was the Wings seventh Sue
ceSSive home game without defeat
and in dominating the battle all
the way they proved that with the
kraut Line in the Canadian Air
Force, with Dit Clapper and Bill
Cowley. the league scoring cham
pion. knocked out of action. the
world hockey champions-barring
Brimsek--are just a lot of guys
named Joe.
Jack McGill Lloyd Gronsdaf,
Clare Martin and the other re-
serves whom Art Ross has been
forced 10 call up are Just not
adequate. especially when it comes
10 protecting BrimSek.
BrimSek AT his best couldn't
keep the huStling Wings at bay.
sgd Howe banged home the first
goal on pass from Liscombe
when the game was only two min
uteS old. LiSCombe reciprocated on
a pass from Howe later in the
first period. both plays having
been started by Mud Bruneteau.
Big Eddie Bush scored the clinch-
ing goal on a 25-footer in the last
