No Trades
For Wings
By LEWIS II. WALTER

Back for d breathing spell after
two Detroit Red Wings victories
in two nights, Jack Adams needed
to take a deep breath today to
deny that he was contemplating
deals for some of his triumphant
hockey players.
The -four for two pla y c r
deaf between the Detrolt-oWned
indianapolis CaptolS and the St
Louis Flyers started the trade
rumorS again.
The deal wasn't quite what it
looked on paper since Doug Nc
CaiC, the defenSeman whom ST.
Louis is sending TO Detroit, IS
already the Wings property, he
was there on loan.
"Since we were taking Me-
Caig back we felt obligated 10
send some one else" said
Adams. "The McAtee boys
weren't going very well, neither
were George Ritchie and Roy
Sawyer. So we shipped them
out and took young George
Blake, who looks like good left
wing prospect"
Blake Wha is %, is a brother Of
Hector tTocl Blake, Montreal
CanadiCnS star.
NcCaiGS return 10 Detroit
caused a few eyebrows to raise
because the Wings now have five
defensemen. including Earl Sci
bert, who has been sitting out a
few games.
"I'd just like to look him over
In practice Saturday, then he'll
he reassigncd-probably to In
dianapolis." said Adams. The
way they've been going down
there the defense could use
help"
1t is also true that the Toronto
Maple Leafs defense could use
some help and since the st. Louis
indianapolis deal came right after
the Toronto visit here, it would
surprise no one if some Detroit
defenseman eventually went to
the Leafs. The Wings returned
from their 3-2 triumph in New
York in good shape

Of Detroit in their i0-round bout
at the Olympia tonight But
those who watched the boxers in
training we're agreed on one other
thing; that the fight IS likely to
develop into real battle.
Bell has been training diligent-
ly for the past three weeks and
was razor sharp during tho clos
ing days Of the grind He flashed
a short left hook that shook his
sparring partners and followed
with rights any one Of which was
powerful enough TO drop any
welterweight.
"O'Neill really wants 10 win
this one" said Attler (Duke)
Ellis, bells first tutor and
trainer for this fight. THE
winner has been promised
match with Raw Robinson here
in January and Bell realizes
that he can make more money
in a bout with Robinson than
he ever made in four fights in
tho past"
Ellis was not impressed by the
fact that gymnasium observers
had made Wilson a favorite TO
win
"They picked George Cost
ner to defeat O'Neill," he said,
land Bell knocked him out.
He can do the same with Will
son " he fights him right.
