Those last-place Boston Olympics
OF the Eastern Hockey League are
turning into very tough outfit.
They've been torn apart and rebuilt
with half dozen new players since
their early season losing string and
now can present two good forward
lines and quartet of hefty, solid
checking defensemen.
It's been the Washington Lions
Ill fortune to come up against those
revamped Pics in four OF their last
six games, and it's making very
tight battle of the league race. The
Pics have won only six games so far.
but three of them have been against
Washington, including last nights
6-5 triumph at Uline Arena. The
setback ruined the Lions hopes Of
going into first-place tie with New
York and left them still in third
position.
It was 9 four-goal squirt early in
the final period last night that de-
cided the issue in favor Of Boston
before a slimmish pref Christmas
turnout Of 1885 at Uline's. The
Lions entered the last 20 minutes
with a SO margin, but Penti Lund
knotted the count on a rebound shot
and then sent the Pics ahead with
a hook shot into the unguarded net,
Goalie Davie Kemp being busy try
ing to break up play in another
corner. AL Shill followed with an
other quickie, and the surge con-
tinued when Ronnie Rowe enlarged
Boston's edge to 6-3 before sthe
. Lions could get re-organized.
The Lions bounced back after
that with a pair of scores by Bert
Lilley, but the rally fell one goal
short of tying the score.

ruined Washington, but the tipoff
that Boston was the better club
last night came in the second period.
The Lions broke a % f1rst-period
deadlock when Guy Roach tucked
In a screen shot from the blue line,
but after that Boston turned on the
steam and spent practically the
whole second-period knocking on the
door. The Lions just couldn't get
the puck out of their defense zone,
and the Pics spent so much time
down there they should be charged
rent. During all that period they
couldn't break through Kemp's

this one factor. particularly in the

Small gains in most producing

barrels) and the Appalachian states.
The 1241 oil well competitions in

but one more than in July, 1945. A
total of 1892 rotary drilling rigs
were active at the end of July, SAL
fewer than year earlier.
The daily average demand for
domestic crude petroleum increased
for the sixth successive month to
4,S64, 900 barrels in July, and stocks
of domestic origin were built up
at an average of about 5000 bar
