Small Crowd Sees
Them Beot leofs
BY the Associated Press

DetroltS Red Wings held sec
ond place in the National
Hockey League today, the Mon
treal Canadiens held hopes of
gaining a berth in the playoffs
after uncovering a brand new
star, and the New York Rang
ers held their heads. trying to
find a way to climb out of the
cellar.
The Wings jumped over the
idle Toronto Maple Leafs into
second place last night by crush
ing the injury-ridden Rangers,
Al, at New York. Although the
entire proceeds went to the Red
Cross, the game lured only
9,724 fans to Madison Square
Garden, one of the smallest
crowds there this season.
At the same time, the Canad-
lens walloped the Chicago Black
Hawks, 81, at Montreal as Alex
Smart, making his first profess
slonal appearance, slammed In
three goals and assisted in a
fourth.
BY winning in the two games
which comprised last nights
league activities, the Red Wings
moved to within three points of
the first-place Boston Bruins,
one point ahead of Toronto, and
the Canadiens climbed to within
three points of the fourth place
HAWKS while stretching their
margin over the Rangers to five
points.
Rookie Johnny Holota shot
Detroit into the lead with a first
period goal and Bryan Hextall
tied lit for the Rangers early in
the second session, but the
Wings held the upper hand the
rest of the way.

Terry Paints
Dark Picture
for Minors

NEW YORK, Jan. IS Up
Bill Terry, former star player,
team manager and farm system
boss of the New York Giants,
planned to leave today for his
home near Memphis after a fly
ing visit to this city for a pur-
pose, he insisted, not remotely
connected with baseball. He
came here to attend a banquet
last night.
Terry, now a contented farm
er, said he naturally was much
interested in the baseball out
look, and was as bewildered as
everybody else as to what the
future holds, but as far as his
plans for returning TO the game
in some capacity were concern
ed he had nothing for publ
cation"
He painted a gloomy picture
for the minor leagues this year.
II think the Al ague S
should be very cautious about
their plans to start the season" "
he said, and that the leagues
below that classification should
not try to open.
IF they try to open they are
liable to struggle along, run in
to debt and finally be forced to
close with a debt hanging over
their heads and with bad taste
in the mouths of the fans. AS
it is now, they can suspend while
free from debt and prepare to
reopen when better days come"

Dodgers May
Lose Durother

for Draft Exom

NEW YORK, Jan. 15-(P-
Confronted by the imminent en-
try of manager Leo Durocher in
to military service and with Pete
Reiser and other stars already in
uniform, president Branch Rick
ey of the Brooklyn Dodgers says
"baseball's manpower question
no longer is in the distance
it's here"
Durocher has been notified to
report to a draft board for a
physical examination, Hickey re-
vealed yesterday, and if he pass
es this screen test" presumably
will be reclassified Immediately
from 3A to IA and placed in
line for an early call to colors.
The explosive leader of the
Dodgers for the last four sea-
sons will be 38 years old next
July % and is married, but has
no children. He now is at Mayo
clinic undergoing an annual
checkup and told Hickey by
telephone that he would take the
draft examination upon his re-
turn to his home at st. Louis.
This development caused Ric-
key to comment that we're Ii
able to 60 into Spring training
with only three infielders-Bill
Herman, Arky Vaughan and
Alex Kampouris. When things
get to this stage the manpower
question no longer is in the dis
tance-it's here. It's arrived"

marked facetiously this morn

vision in the original program
revealed earlier in the week.
Two changes have been made
since the semi-finals were run
off a week ago. One of t n e
changes involves Bruce Bost-
wick, 15O-pound d e t e n d n 6
champion who has withdrawn
from the finals. He was sched-
uled to fight Johnny Allor.
Buckholz this morning has not
decided who would take Bost-
wick's place, but said it was
probable Johnny Johnson might
be substituted.
The second alteration is the
substitution of Clarence Schroe-
der for Robert Stearns, whose
injured ankle has failed to re-
spond to treatment. Schroeder
