...that it was all that easy last week against the Blues, an expansion team that hardly figured to belong on the same ice with the polished Canadiens. St. Louis twice took Montreal into sudden-death overtime. All four games were decided by one goal. In the deciding game, Montreal had to battle back from a 2-1 deficit, and it took a goal by J. C. Tremblay with 8 min. 20 sec. left to give the Canadiens a 3-2 victory...
...incinerators now destroy about 3,000,000 metric tons of other valuable metals a year; magnetic extractors could save the metal and reduce incineration by 10%.

Soft drinks could also come in frozen form, as popsicles with edible sticks...
That was a year ago. Twice since then, Fuller has come close to selling Dancer's Image-for $500,000 and $1,000,000. Each time he held off.

Rotund as a hand grenade and just as explosive, Adams earned his reputation as a slick-skating center for the Toronto Arenas (forerunners of the Maple Leafs); he demonstrated his managerial skills by collecting young talent for the Detroit Red Wings (he got Gordie Howe at 17) and leading his team to twelve N.H.L. titles (including a record seven in a row from 1949 to 1955) and seven Stanley Cup victories...
Died. Roy E. Tomlinson, 90, former president (1917-29, 1932-45) and chairman (1929-55) of the National Biscuit Co., who raised a small biscuit-maker to a modern corporate giant (1967 sales: $764 million) that makes everything from crackers to candies, cookies to ice cream cones, and sells them throughout the world; in Glen Ridge...
