The probation originally was
for one year and would have

Lions
Bolster Defense
With Spencer

The Lions. Is points behind
New Haven in the Eastern Hook
ey League race, have reinforce
ments on the way. Jack Spencer
the teams goal tender last sea-
son. will be back in the fold to-
morrow and coming with him
may be an experienced forward
from the International League.
Meanwhile. the Lions, 80
losers to the Blades in New
Haven last night. had still an
other matter to handle today
General Manager Jack Riley
planned to head a movement to
bar Joe Nolan of the Clinton
Comets from further competi-
ton.
Riley was expected to bring
up the matter at league meet
ing in philadelphia today and
officials from Philadelphia and
Baltimore were expected to sup
port him.
Nolan. 6-foot-3. 225-pound de-
ienseman, is accused of re-
peated acts of unnecessary
.roughness. Among other things
he Dashed Dan Morgan in the
chin with his stick last Monday
in Clinton. 1t took six stitches
to sew up the wound.
Teams Complain
A number OF other teams have
complained of Nolan's tactics
which have been under close
surveillance by officials on Or
ders from Tom Lockhart, league
president.
According to Stan Warecki,
player-coach of the Lions, No
Ian was banned from the Inter-
national League two years ago.
The Lions are waiting to well
come Spencer, the 21-year-old
goalie who has been playing
with the Toledo Mercurys of the
International League. Jimmy
Mattson. the present goalie, will
be retained, giving the Lions
double strength in that position.
No information has been given
out on the forward expected to
accompany Spencer here. The
Lions want to confirm his avail
ability first.
Lions Meet Clippers
The Lions play the Baltimore
Clippers in Baltimore Wednes-
day and at Uline Arena Thurs
day and meet the Philadelphia
RamblerS at Uline's Saturday
night.
Lack of offensive punch cost
the Lions their second game
with the Blades in as many
nights last night.
John SHERIDAN scored for the
Blades on assists from Claude
Boileau and won ChaSle at
1874 of the second period and
Joe BuccholZ and Chasle each
