...required to make snap decisions while speeding 30 ft. a second, have well-timed plays ready for almost every circumstance that arises, seldom make goals save by effective teamwork. Baseball had its famed Tinker-to-Evers-to-Chance combination, but every big-league hockey team has a forward line (left wing, centre and right wing) that functions with the precision of baseball's great trio...
Saving Grace. While the goal-scoring forward line goes zooming towards fame and the two burly defensemen crash violently against their opponents to the cheers of the galleries, the goaltender, encased in 25 lb. of pads, is grimly occupied with the job of making saves.

...soundly inspired work of Genre-Painter Walter Sickert, Landscapist Philip Wilson Steer, Portraitist Augustus John. Nothing controversial, nothing new mars the orderly display of masterwork. But in Reynolds' and Gainsborough's stately figures, Constable's English clouds and countryside, Turner's light, Blake's line and Rossetti's pattern, most Frenchmen last week found a powerful concentration of evidence that the English have not been without their...
