Answer 10 That
Question Adams
Aim at Meeting
By LEWIS H. WALTER

"Tm going to ask n the Ma
tionaI Hockey League is going
to throw away the rules for the
playoffs like last year, or II
we're going to go according to
the book" said Jack Adams.
That's the question the De-
troit Red Wings manager wants
the league bosses and referees
to answer today in Toronto
when the final playoff plans are
made.
Adams left Coach Edible Good
fellow to send his lesgue-leading
Wings through their PAGES to-
day, the last preparation for
their game with the Chicago
Blackhawks here I ono orr ow
night.
This Chicago game IL i'm
portant. but 80 are some Of these
other matters" said Adams as
he boarded the train last night.
"It won't do us any good TO
win the league championship II
we're going 10 get the works
In the showdown for the STAN
ley Cup"
BEING CAREFUL
Those are harsh and bitter
words, but Adams is not the
only one who believes Detroit
was almost iobbed out of the
cup last year by officials WIS
answered the protesting screams
of the Toronto Maple Leafs
against Detroit's rugged fore
checking play.
"The rules say hockey II a
body contact sport, that body
checking Is permissible" said
Adams. That's the way we
played II last year and II was
all right until the playoff. Then
we were buried under penalties.
This year we've played IL the
Same way. We're leading the
league. Now how do we play.
hockey or croquet rules?"
Adams and plenty OF others
still can't get over the way Of
ficials opened the chute 10 the
penalty box for the Wings after
they had committed the heresy
of beating the Toronto Maple
Leafs three straight in the cup
play and had the cup almost
wrapped up.
So Adams, feeling he has the
best club in hockey today, can't
exactly be blamed for goine

a little bitterness.

Dispatches directly from the

Pravda indicated that the n W
turn in the fighting was due large
ly to a temperance of Soviet

forced by inclemer' weather.
With strong aerial support, the
Red army threw back enemy tank
forces which had advanced to the
Malin sector, said Pravda's dis
patches. Soviet Stormovik bomb

And disturbs your sleep.

Chronic bronchitis may develop if
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron-
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take a chance with anymedi-
cine less potent than Creomulsion
which goes right to the seat of the
trouble to help loosen and expel germ
laden phlegm and aid nature to
soothe and heal raw, tender, infamed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beechwood
creosote by special process with other
time tested medicines for coughs.
It contains no narcotics.
No matter how many medicines
you have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you a bottle of CreomulSion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per-
hitting rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv.)
