Last week against fourth-place Toronto, Hull sent a 35-footer whistling past Goalie Terry Sawchuck for his 32nd goal in 34 games, as the Black Hawks won, 5-3. That gave him a 13-point lead over Detroit's Frank Ullman in the scoring race-and, with 36 games still to play, a clear shot at the N.H.L. record of 50 goals in one season, which Hull shares with Montreal's Maurice Richard and Boom Boom Geoffrion...

...last minute of the period B.U. wrapped it up. The Crimson had a one man advantage and had kept the puck in Terrier ice for a minute. Suddenly Pete McLachlan and Bruce Fennie broke down the ice together. Fennie flipped a 12-footer past Fitzsimmons who stood immobile and watched the winning goal...
Harvard fought back gamely. Jeff Grate and Charlie McMonaugle sank foul shots, and Sedlacek swished a jumper from the corner. Gene Dressier stole the ball and hit a short jump shot, then connected a on 20-footer moments later. Jim Griswald's shot from the corner put the Crimson ahead 75-72 with 6:05 to play...
