Of Lost 10 Abroad

1t comes as no great comfort to
the Washington Lions of the Amer
ican Hockey League to realize their
next two games will be played on
the road, for missing is a Marco
Polo urge to roam. The Lions have
lost 8 of their last 10 games abroad.
Six straight times the Lions have
dropped decisions in their recent
travels. so Saturday nights date at
Pittsburgh and Sunday nights at
Buffalo are registering no gleeful
anticipation. Last night the Lions
were trumped, 80. by the Caps at
Indianapolis.
Washington trailed by 2 points
until Lou Trudel netted his second
score Of the game with less than q
minute Of the third period remain
ing. The Lions thus slipped three
games behind the third-place New
Haven Eagles in the Eastern Divi-
sion.
Meanwhile Hershey and Cleveland
remain locked for the lead In the
Western Division, with Indianapolis
a close third and Buffalo and Pitts
burgh out of it. Springfield still
owns an impressive lead In the
Eastern Division, with Providence
second, New Haven, third; WASH
ington, fourth, and Philadelphia in
the basement.
Other games last night saw New
Haven beat Springfield, 81. and
Providence defeat Cleveland, 4-3
Providence thus extended to 103 the
successive games in which it hasn't
been blanked.
