Wings rs Favorite
In First Cup Series
By LEWIS u. WALTER

"You are the best hockey
team In the world. hut now
you'll have to prove II the hard
way--in the playohs Let's see
YOU take this Toronto team
tonight"
With such words and some fist
pounding. manager Jack Adams
will send his Detroit Red Wings,
National Hockey League cham
pionS, against the Toronto Maple
Leafs. Stanley Cup holders. in the
first game Of the playoffs at Olyin-
pia this Sunday night.
Favored at 7 10 5 10 take tho
first round series from the club
that whipped them for he nig
cup last year. the Red Wings will
start the drive for their third
Stanley Cup before a sellout crowd
of close 10 $4,000. Another sellout
is assured for the second game Of
the series here Tuesday. after
which both teams move TO Toronto
for the next two games in the
best -of-seven series.
BRUINS VS.. MONTREAL
While the Wings and Maple
Leafs are battling, the second
place Boston and fourth-place
Montreal teams will be starting a
similar series in Boston.
Two successive defeats by To-
ronto last weekend, after the
Wings had clinched the league
title, have had curative effect
on the Detroit players. Those de-
feats have removed any feeling Of
overConfidence which might have
prevailed after four successive vic
tories over the Leafs.
The Wings recognize Toronto
as a hard-skating team which can
win this series without a ma ior
upset. Detroit's great defense. led
by the Nezina Cup winning goalie,
Johnny Mowers. and the all-league
choice. Jack Stewart, must stop
the brilliant Lorne Carr. one Of
hoCkey's finest right wingers; the
Cagey Sweeney Schriner and the
fine play-maker. Billy Taylor.
Detroit must halt Gave Stewart

|WMC Says Increase
In Output Last Month
Proves lis Efficiency

The War Manpower Commission
considers the $50, ,000, ,000. .00O- year
pace set by war production in De-
cember as an example of the success
Of its manpower program.
The war production figure was
one of the Developments" cited by
VINO Executive Director L. A. APP
pley yesterday in a year-end review
|of the manpower situation which,
he admitted. had threatened pro-
duction earlier in the year.
At the same time he answered
Secretary of the Interior Ickes'
charge that the "crux" of the criti-
cal hard coal problem is manpower
by blaming the coal shortage on
work stoppages rather than man.
power crisis.
II think it is unfortunate to imply
that any shortage of coal Is due
to a manpower crisis" said the VINO
official. "Of course, we need more
manpower to catch up now, but
when mines are not in production
when manpower Is available to pro-
duce. you can't say the crisis was
caused by a lack of workers"
Untapped Source Cited.
In another development yesterday
VINO announced there is an un-
tapped pool of 81 100000 part-time
workers who should be used to
alleviate manpower shortages.
VINO reported the pool included
5000 900 students over IA years of
age, more than 100000 childless
nonworking women between 20 and
S. years of age and almost $4,000. 900
workers in trades, services and Gov
ernment, some of whom are able to
work a few additional hours a day
on a second job.
VINO listed as advantages of part
time workers that they help provide
increases to the labor force in over
crowded communities, help reduce
absenteeism among full-time work.
ers by cutting excessive overtime
make possible unemployment of
women who left the labor force after
marriage, occasionally induce wo-
men who take part-time work to
become full-time workers and re-
lease full-time workers to jobs that
must be done by skilled persons.
In his review Mr.. Appley said a
workable pattern" had been evolved
to solve local manpower difhculties
that communities have changed
their attitude toward the manpower
program, that the United States
Employment Service had become a
more effective tool and that, in
general, "manpower management is
solving the manpower muddle."
Forecasts Problems.
For the new year Mr.. Appley made
these general observations:
/. War contract cancellations will
not greatly loosen the national Ia
Dor market nor create surplus of
labor. Rumors of wholesale unem-
ployment are quite premature"
q Problems will be created, never
thelesS, in certain communities by
these cancellations and will require
prompt action.
8. Aircraft and shipbuilding CEN
ters will remain very tight" from a
manpower standpoint.
4. AS activity increases in the Pa

greater strain on West Coast man.
