Late Goal
Wins for
Wings
CONTINUED from First Sport Page


warm-up with the Rangers in New
York Thursday. Il
1t is a battered group of Red
Wings that is resting today for
that game. Those Canadiens may
have some difficulty smashing past
Chicago into a playoff position but
you can take the word of the Red
Wings-and the $3.50 witnesses at
last nights game-that right now
these Frenchmen are the toughest
cookies in the league.
The scoring was almost In
Icidental in this game of smashing
but clean body checking. Incidental
to every one perhaps but the
goalies. Bibeault felt the first stab
when Don Crosse and Sid Abel
struggled across the Montreal goal
mouth from the left boards in the
first period, with Crosse giving
Abel the pass for a push shot that
kept the Wings in front 10 until
only six minutes were left of the
game.
Then despite the thousands of
fingers crossed in the hopes that
Johnny Mowers would get his fifth
and bonus shutout, Buddy O'Con-
nor grabbed Bruneteau's pass in
Detroit ice and forwarded to Ray
Getliffe, who walked in on the
ldefenSeless Mowers TO score.
HIT POST S TIMES
That Detroit managed to score
again in this close-checking game,
in which good shots on goal were
at a premium, was a near miracle.
With that hockey giant, Jack Chg
Pork Chops) Portland, and the
long jawed bee-keeper, Bill Bou-
chard, smacking the Red Wings
along with Elmer Lach, Glen
Harmon and Ray Getliffe in par
ticular, Bibeault didn't have to
make his usual quota of saves
here. The Wings did rattle five
shots off the post but usually
Bibeault was right beside it.
The Montreal goalie was good,
with u saves for IA for Mowers.
But Johnny had three miracle
saves, one on Joe Benoit at the
very start of the game, another on
Gordon Drillon in the econd period
and one on Getliffe in the third.
The Wings, with Crosse fore
checking and Stewart and Orlando
humping, held the high-scoring
Drillon without a score for the
first time in the five games at
Olympia this season, but the curly
haired Getliffe, who recen thy
scored five times on Boston, was
a little tougher proposition. Only
a sensational sliding poke-check
by Alex Motter saved Mowers
from yielding a second goal to
Getliffe in the last period when
Getliffe broke away with O'Con-
ner, with only Motter between
them and the net.
Mowers was drawn TO one side
Of his cage by a pass and Get
life could have gone right in had
I Motter missed.
/ This was a Canadien team that
didn't hesitate to play the Red
Wings own game-sending five
men up from the start. II was a
Canadien team that held its own
when short-handed as it was five
times to Detroit's four on penal
ties by referee Norman Lamport.
It was a Canadien team that kept
going right to the final minute
with goalie Bibeault out and six
men up the ice in the last %
seconds.
It was a Canadien team that
had tough breaks, with Dutch
Hitler missing an open net and
Elmer Lach almost breaking loose
TO tie up the score on the final
faceoff.
It's a band Of Frenchmen who
may be bad news TO any one If
they get into the playoffs-just a
month away.

STATE

Well deserving the superlatives
which heralded It's arrival, "Phan-
tom Of the Opera" that thrillingly
magnificent screen classic, began its
engagement at Warmers State thea
ter this afternoon.
Filmed In technicolor, the produc-
ton has astonishing pictorial quail
tiles; but the drama, the music and
the performance Of its players must
be called r1atchleSs. The note OF
terror and hot suspense which ac-
companies every scene, Is completely
fascinating. Breathless audience re-
action would indicate that the pro-
ducers have created one Of the most
brilliant successes In It's history.
Co-stars Nelson Eddy, Susanna
Foster and Claude Rains have dis
tinguished portrayals. Eddy, as the
Paris Opera star who loves the am
bilious young vocalist, has the most
colorful role Of his career. Miss
Foster, appearing as the singer, wins
new laurels In o part which reveals
her exceptional dramatic ability O.
well % her musical talent.
Rains Is the Phantom" His sin
lister portrayal Of the musical COM
poser who Ynystifles and terrorizes
the personnel and patrons Of the
Paris Opera, Is one Of the screens
all-time acting classics. The role,
which provides the aerie motivation
Of the story, furnishes amazing &C.
ton. Scenes showing the ''Phan.
tom" releasing the giant chandelier
which crashes down upon an audi
ence; and the sequence devoted TO
the chase Of the killer through the
deep catacombS beneath the thea
ter, are wildly exciting.
Featured in important roles are
Edgar Barrier, Leo GARLIC, Jane
Farrar, ]. Edward Bromberg, Fritz
Field and Hume Cronyn. All are
said TO deliver memorable perform
ances. Many other notahles and q
multitude OF atmosphere players are
seen In various spectacular sequences
Of the film.
An enthralling musical score IN
cludes two original compositions by
Edward Ward. They are Lullaby
Of the Bells" and piano Concerto"
Lullaby" Is featured by Eddy and
Miss Foster, who also sing together
In the presentation OF Russian
OPERA" "F'rench Opera" and Mar.

and Anthony NARROW are other
vocalists heard In the operate
numbers which feature q large sing
ing chorus.
