Doris 0utshoots
Men Champions
BY DON GILLIES

Detroit today can boast one Of
the greatest women rifle shooters
of modern times. Her name is
Doris Fisher, a member of the
Greater Detroit Rod and Gun Club
team.
Doris took up rifle shooting less
than a year ago because her hus-
band, Fred. spent most of his time
at a rifle club and she didn't want
to stay home alone
Today, she is a 100 TO shot TO
beat her husband any time they
fire in a match. Proving her abil-
ity as an expert markswoman,
few nights ago she outshot Erwin
Brehm, one Of the states top
ranking SharpShooters.
The event was special match
between the Greater Detroit team
and the Great Lakes five. Hearst
Times champion Of Michigan.
Brehm. Great Lakes star,
banged out a mark Of BIT for one
Of his best scores Of the season.
only TO be topped by Doris with
a score Of 37S.
AT the forthcoming Hearst
Times matches set for the
Olympia. June 3-4, il is likely the
best woman rifle shooter in the
state will be decided.
A special individual match open
to all senior women shooters has
been arranged The event will be
fired over a four-positlon route
with 10 shots in each position.

Ossie (Bulldogl Harris is IA
vored TO defeat Icy Jannazzo OF
New York on Nick Londes' two
feature card tonight at Olympia.
While he has yet 10 taste VIC
tory in three starts here, the
rugged Pittsburgh lad provided
stiff opposition in all of them
Jannazzo won decision two years
ago from Harris, when Ossie first
turned pro.
Harris followers point out he
is a veteran of 120 fights and
while Harris Will have youth and
power, the veteran is taking this
bout more seriously than usual.
He is la and expects TO get his
call any day now. A victory would
mean more fights before entering
the army.
In the other Hereunder, Mike
Della. Los Angeles, meets Eddie
bowl, Newark. Delia's manager,
Freddie Sommers, and Londes
finally agreed on a contract.
The disagreement began several
months ago when Della was
scheduled TO fight Billy Miller
here. He failed TO show up, claim
ing illness. and Commissioner
Hettche suspended both fighter
and manager. With the signing,
the suspension was lifted.

Edible Predicts New
Cup Scoring Mark
BY EBBIE GOODFELLOW
Red Wings Coach and Hockey Immortal

More than the BlackhawkS'
hearts are going 10 be broken IN
this Stanley Cup series.
/ don't mean the BlackhawkS'
bones. although IT wouldn't sur
prise any one if the streamroller
CanadienS did crack a few Chi
cagoanS IN the games at Chicago
tonight and Sunday.
If there is a sure thing besides
Montreal IN this series. 1t is the
record breaking of the National
Hockey League season will he
continued. And il is the Red
Wings playoff records that are
going off the books now
You know Carl Llscombe and
Don Crosse of the Wings and
Bill Cowley OF Boston hold, the
record for playoff scoring with
IA points. while Crosse and
Cecil Dillon hold the goal record
with eight. That's a lot OF
points and a lot Of goals, but 1t
probably won't seem like much
when this Chicago-BoSton series
is over.
Cowley was the first player in
league history 10 run up Ia
points. The great playmaker did
1t with three goals and II assists
when the Bruins went seven
games with the Rangers in tho
first round and won the 1889
finals from Toronto IN five
Crosse equalcd the point and
goal record with his great play
two years ago. when the skinny
center from the 500 was a
Standout in the finals against
Toronto.
] can still sec him shaking
around Bucko Mcdonald for his
third goal in one game at
Toronto.
Now there are al least eight
players in the finals who have
a chance TO beat the 14-point
mark.
They are Maurice Richard and
Toe Blake Of Montreal. who are
tied AT II points each Doug
Bentley of Chicago with 10,
Clint Smith of Chicago and
Elmer Lach Of Montreal with
nine each. Murph Chamberlain.
Ray Gctliffe and Phil Watson,
with eight each.
You know Art wants all The
records scored This year 10 be

7 don't think CanadienS will
rout Chicago as they did The
weakened Leaf youngsters But
trere is no optimism in Chicago.
Before the series started a
Chicago betting commissioner
offered so to 1 against the
Hawks winning four straight,
3 TO / or a two-goal spot against
them in the opener and > 10 l
against their winning the series.
That's probably 10 TO ! today.
Although Hawks are giv0n a
chance on their own ice, where
they tied Montreal twice. you
can get 4 to l in Chicago If
YOU have a mistaken sense OF
civic duty and feel they can win
the two games at home.
