Don't hit your husband again,
lady! The poor man is telling the
truth when he says that Red
Wing hockey game didn't end
until this morning.
AS a matter Of record, II was
1855 a. m. when the Detroit club
finally skated off Olympia ice
with a 7-3 victory over the New
York Rangers.
We know, ledy7-that the games
are usually over at l0:30 p. m.
But this time Referee Bert
Hedges didn't even face of the
puck until 11:13 p. m. The first
such delay in the history of the
National Hockey League was
caused by train trouble.
The Rangers were due in here
early yesterday afternoon. but
they missed their connection In
Buffalo by more than three hours
because of a snow storm, they
had TO be rerouted and their new
train dragged a diner with a hot
box halfway across Ohio. Which
resulted in a three-hour wait in
